only one correct answer. but there is one question that has millions of current answers. that question is “whats your name?” everyone gives a different answer, but everyone is correct.have you ever wondered about peoples names? where do they come from? what do they mean?peoples first names, or given names, are chosen by their parents. sometimes the name of a grandparent or other member of the family is used. some parents choose the name of a well-known person. a boy could be named george washington smith; a girl could be named helen keller jones.some people give their children names that mean good things. clara means “bright”; beatrice means “one who gives happiness”; donald means “world ruler”; leonard means “as brave as a lion”.the earliest last names, or surnames, were taken from place names. a family with the name brook or brooks probably lived near brook(小溪)；someone who was called longstreet probably lived on a long, paved road. the greenwood family lived in or near a leafy forest.other early surnames came from peoples occupations. the most common occupational name is smith, which means a person who makes things with iron or other metals. in the past, smiths were very important workers in every town and village. some other occupational names are: carter a person who owned or drove a cart; potter a person who made pots and pans.the ancestors of the baker family probably baked bread for their neighbors in their native village. the carpenters great-great-great-grandfather probably built houses and furniture.sometimes people were known for the color of their hair or skin, or their size, or their special abilities. when there were two men who were named john in the same village, the john with the gray hair probably became john gray. or the john was very tall could call himself john tallman. john fish was probably an excellent swimmer and john lightfoot was probably a fast runner or a good dancer.some family names were made by adding something to the fathers name. english-speaking people added s or son. the johnsons are descendants of john; the roberts familys ancestor was robert. irish and scottish people added mac or mc or o. perhaps all of the macdonnells and the mcdonnells and the odonnells are descendants of the same donnell.41. which of the following aspects do the surnames in the passage not cover? a. places where people lived. b.

believe wolves should be killed. other people believe wolvesmust be protected so that they will not disappear from the wilderness(荒野) for killing wolves n alaska，the wolf almost disappeared a few years ago，because hunters were killing hundredsof them forsport .however1aws were established to protect the wolves from sportsmen and people who catch the animals for their furso the woif population has greatly increased. now there are so many wolves that they are destroying their own food supply a wolf naturally eats animals in the deer family. people in the wilderness also hunt deer for foodmany of the animals have been destroyed by the very cold winters recently and by changes in the wilderness plant lifewhen the deer cant find enough food，they die if the wolves continue to kill large numbers of deer，their prey(猎物)will disappear some dayand the wolves will disappear tooso we must change the cycle of life in the wilderness to balance the ecologyif we killed more wolves，we would save them and their prey from dying outwed also save some farm animals in another northern state，wolves attack cows and chickens for foodfarmers want the government to send biologists to study the problemthey believe it necessary to kill wolves in some areas and to protect them in places where there is a small wolf population against killing wolves if you had lived long ago，you would have heard many different stories about the dangerous wolfaccording to most stories，hungry wolves often kill people for foodeven today，the stories of the“big bad woifwill not disappear but the fact is wolves are afraid of peopleand they seldom travel in areas where there is a human smellwhen wolves eat other animals，they usually kill the very youngor the sick and injured .the strongest survive .no kind of animal would have survived through the centuries if the weak members had livedand it has always been a law of nature although some people say it is good sense to kill wolves，we say it is nonsense!researchers have found wolves and their prey living in balancethe wolves keep the deer population from becoming too large,and that keeps a balance in the wilderness plant life the real problem is that the areas where wolves can live are being used bv peopleeven if wilderness land is not used directly for human needsthe wolves cant always find enough food .so they travel to the nearest source,which is often a farmthen there is dangerthe“big bad wolf”has arrived! and everyone knows what happens next45according to the passage，some people in north america favor killing wolves for all the following reasons excet that athere are too many wolves bthey kill large numbers deer cthey attack cows and chickens for food dthey destroy the wilderness plant life46some people are against killing wolves because awolves help to keep the ecological balance in the wildemess bthere is too small a wolf population in the wilderness cthere are too many deer in the wilderness dwolves

give more support to weak schoolsb. treat all the children equally.c. balanced education may stop school choice.d. free the students from heavy burdens.e. key schools and classes are illegal.f. to end the industrial management of education.51._ education should be aimed to make better citizens instead of making money. if youre interested in making money, you should start your own business other than schools. now its high time that we put an end to the industrial management of education(教育产业化) and have it benefit all the people instead of the few rich ones.52._ we should take concrete(切实的)measures to lessen the students heavy burden of homework. we must kick off concrete policies and rules instead of talking empty talks. we must take action. only solid policies can guarantee all the students grow soundly.53._ my parents are farmer-turned workers. i think we should be treated equally with the local children. we should not only have the equal right to go to the local public schools, but also have the rights to take part in the local national college entrance exam instead of being forced to go back to our native place54._ school choice has become a serious educational problem. to solve this problem fundamentally, we must stick to the balanced development. the government should offer more support to weak schools and have all the teachers exchange the round hillock work(轮岗)among all the schools.55._ the government is unwilling to spend enough money on education. the key schools turn to parents for money to build new buildings and labs and increase their teachers income. this makes a wider gap(差距) between key schools and common schools. therefore, in order to realize the balance of education, the government should offer more help to weak schools.第三部分 写作（共三节，满分30分）第一节：单词拼写（共10小题，每小题1分，满分10分）根据下列各句句意和空白之后的汉语提示词, 在答题卡指定区域的横线上写出对应单词的正确形式，每空只写一词。56. it is difficult for us to know the _ （深度）of this lake.57. this river is the _ （分界线）between
