child doesnt understand the finality of such an event.many years later, at the age of twenty-three, i was planning my wedding to sheldon, who came from a complete loving family, the type i expect. sheldon and i had already bought our first home with a large, beautifully landscaped yard. as the date grew closer and we took ownership of the home, we began to clean, arrange inside and out.the day before our wedding we were putting the final touches to the yard. we were so pleased with the neatness of it all. but one plant puzzled us. a rosebush located just outside our front door, was completely barren of leaves or buds. it looked liked it might be dead, but since neither of us could be sure, we reluctantly decided to keep it for the time being.that same evening, after the dinner, i was too excited to sleep. instead i decided i needed some quiet time to reflect on the wedding the next day. i went to the backyard and sat in the warm, clear, star-filled night. it was there that i realized the only thing missing from my wedding day would be my parents. there had been no time to think of this until now and the thought filled me with sadness. after all, every girl dreams of having her father walk her down the aisle and her mother there to comfort her anxiety. alone in the yard, i began speaking to my mom and dad, just as if i had known they were listening.“give me a sign on my wedding day to let me know youre with me.”the next day sheldons excited voice repeatedly called my name. i rushed to join him at the front door.“i cant believe what im about to show you!”he stood aside. the barren rosebush had two huge roses in full bloom.there was no doubt in my mind that we were witnessing a miraclea miracle of love.1. what does the underlined word “touches” in the third paragraph mean? a. small details.b. strong feelings.c. close connection.d. enormous pressure.2. according to the passage, why did the rosebush confuse the writer? a. because it was difficult to take care of. b. because it had a sign of dying away. c. because it grew in a wrong place. d. because its leaves were always falling.3. the writer came to the yard that night to _. a. relieve her pressure of life b. pray for her parents c. see whether the rose grew d. think about her wedding carefully4. it can be inferred from the passage that _. a. the writer was experienced in managing a yard b. the writer and her fianc kept the rosebush immediately they saw it c. the writer could celebrate her wedding outdoors d. the writer was full of pity without her parents attending her weddingbthe english expect each other to observe the rules of queuing, feel highly offended when these rules are broken, but lack the confidence or social skills to express their annoyance in a straightforward manner. in other countries, this is not a problem: in america, where a queue-jumper has committed a kind of rudeness rather than a sin, the response is a loud warning: the offender is simply told “hey, you, get back in line!” or words to that effect. on the european continent, the reaction tends to be loud and argumentative; in some other parts of the world, queue-jumpers may simply be pushed back into line. ironically (具有讽刺意义的是), it is only in england, where queue-jumping is regarded as deeply immoral, that the queue-jumper is likely to get away with the offence. only rarely do the english actually speak up and tell the jumper to go to the back of the queue.queuing is almost a national pastime for the english, who automatically arrange themselves into orderly lines at bus stops, shop counters, ice-cream vans, entrances, exits, and lifts. in 1946, a hungarian humorist described queuing as english “national passion”. “on the continent,” he said. “if people are waiting at a bus stop they walk around in a seemingly relaxed fashion. when the bus arrives they make a dash (猛冲) for it.an englishman, even if he is alone, forms orderly queue of one.” in an update over thirty years later in 1977 he confirmed that this was still the case. after nearly another thirty years nothing much seems to have changed.in many cases, queue-jumping is effectively prevented by non-verbal (非语言的) signals alone. when someone is considering jumping a queue, the queuers will start glancing at him sideways, through narrowed, suspicious eyes. then they move a bit closer to the person in front of them, just in case the jumper might try to insert himself in the gap. frowns, glares, and raised eyebrows accompanied by heavy sighs, pointed coughs are usually the worst that the person will suffer if he jumps a queue. faced with all this, the jumper will think better of it and withdraw to the back of the queue.5. in america and other european countries, queue-jumpers .a. are severely punished and fined b. are pushed back to the end of linesc. are warned in a direct mannerd. are the cause of public arguments6. by quoting the description of a hungarian humorist, the author intends to show .a. englishmen are stubborn and too strict with themselvesb. queuing is a kind of automatic behavior for englishmen c. queuing is essential in maintaining good public order d. other europeans are more open-minded than englishmen 7. according to the last paragraph, queue-jumping can usually be stopped effectively .a. with a confident and aggressive attitude b. with signs of public rulesc. by shouting and loud warning d. by using certain body language 8. what is the best title of this passage?a. a social skill to improve your life: queuingb. bad manners around the world: queue-jumping c. a culture of european countries: queuing d. an english aspect of life: queuing cdisney world, not to be missed!are you still looking for an amusement park to enjoy yourself? then,

parents flooding their camera phones with hundreds of photos from loose teeth to each step in the potty training(如厕训练) process how might the photos affect our memories?maryanne garry, a psychology professor, has studied the effects of photography on our memories for years. “i think the problem is that people are giving away being in the moment. those parents at the park taking all those photos are actually paying less attention to the moment, because theyre focusing on the act of taking the photo.” she says.henkel, who researches human memory at fairfield university in connecticut, began an experiment by sending groups of students to the universitys art museum. the students observed some objects and photographed others. then, back at the lab, they were given a memory test. henkel found what she called a “photo-taking impairment (损伤) effect.” “the objects that they had taken photos of they actually remembered fewer of them, and remembered fewer details. like, how was this statues hands positioned, or what was this statue wearing on its head.” she says. her students memories were impaired because relying on an external (外在的) memory aid meant they subconsciously (潜意识地) counted on the camera to remember the details.“as soon as you hit click on that camera, its as if youve outsourced your memory,” she says. “any time we count on these external memory devices, were taking away the kind of mental cognitive (认知的) processing that might help us actually remember that stuff on our own.” henkel says its also a mistake to think of photographs as memories. the photo will remain the same to you each time you look at it, but memories change over time. “each time i remember what my high school graduation was like, i might be coloring and changing that memory because of my current perspective because of new ideas that i have or things that i learned afterwards,” she says. “human memory is much more dynamic (动态的) than photographs.” but henkel doesnt want people to stop taking photos. instead, shed like us to be more mindful when taking pictures in the first place. theyre still valuable tools that can provide “rich retrieval (检索) clues” later on. 13. which of the following statements is true according to the passage?a. photos taken in the park have a bad effect on childrens memory.b. the fewer photos you take, the fewer details you remember.c. observing objects can help remember what weve experienced.d. new ideas people have can completely change the memory of the past.14. by saying “as soon as you hit click on that camera, its as if youve outsourced your memory.” in the last paragraph, the writer means that _.a. you obtain your memory relying on a camera b. you cross out our memory when using a camerac. you change your memory with the help of a camerad. you bring back your memory by hitting your camera15. what is the attitude of henkel towards taking photos?a. objective. b. negative. c. unconcerned. d. doubtful.第二节 (共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分)
