b. c和d)中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑ain the united states and several other countries, 2.5 million children play baseball in an organization called little league. they play on teams in their hometowns. their parents and other adults in the community coach or instruct them and serve as umpires to make sure that everyone follows the rules. local businesses give money for the ball fields and the uniforms. local teams compete against each other and the winners get to play teams that are more distant. eventually, the top teams go to the little league world series.one hundred years after abner doubleday invented baseball in cooperstown, new york, in 1839, little league got started in pennsylvania. three men started the game for neighborhood boys with a smaller playing field and fewer innings than adult baseball. little league became popular after world war ii when the game spread across the united states. by 1955 it was played throughout north america and within five years it had spread to europe. childrens baseball really caught on in japan and taiwan of china and teams from those areas won the world series seven out of eight years. after this, the organization tried banning foreign teams from the world series, but the ban came to an end after one year.at first, little league was only for boys aged nine to twelve. however, in 1974, the parents of girl baseball players brought a law suit. the courts ruled that little league had to include both boys and girls. later little league added on softball and other games for teenagers up to age eighteen. occasionally a little leaguer becomes a professional player. for example, gary carter went from little league to play nineteen seasons in the major leagues, ten of them as an all-star player. but, by and large, youngsters play baseball for fun and because their parents are proud of them.36. the mothers and fathers of little league players _.a. help run the games b. travel in coachesc. give the teams money d. play in the world series37. in what year was little league established? a. 1839 b. 1939 c. 1955 d. 1960 38. why do most players take part in little league? a. to play in the major league. b. to have fun and please their parents. c. they expect a profit from all-star games d. they want to learn how to serve as umpires.39. what is true about players today? a. little league is only for neighbourhood boys. b. girl players have to buy their suits. c. girls and boys can participate to age eighteen. d. children can only play until age twelve.bcity farms are gaining popularity in cities and towns around the united states. city farms in edmonston, maryland, is located near shopping centers, car repair shops and homes. the neighborhood is a working-class community. people do not have very much money, and they have limited access to fresh food in markets. over the past two years, the farm has attracted volunteers from the community like marcy clark. she schools her four children at home. on a recent day she brought them to eco city farms for a lesson. alston clark thinks his experience very valuable. “i like coming out here, ”he says, “you know, you connect with the earth, where your food comes from. you appreciate the food a little bit more. ”margaret morgan-hubbard started eco city farms. she thinks of it as a place where people can learn to live healthier lives. “growing food in a community and showing that you can have farms even in the city is helpful to strengthen the relationship in that community and brings people together, ”she continues, “every piece of what we do here is a demonstration to show people everything about how to have a sustainable community. ”she says. from the eco city farms people come to know that they are not only growing food and raising chickens and bees, but improving the soil with compost(堆肥)made from food waste. sixteen wooden bins are filled with worms. their job is to eat the food waste and help make it into compost. eco city farms is an experimental operation. the farm gets its power not from the local electricity networks but from the sun with solar panels. in winter, the greenhouses are heated using a geothermal(地热的)system. vegetables can be grown all year. so once a week, all winter long, neighbors like chris moss and her three children bicycle to the farm to pick up a share of the harvest. “i like eating the vegetables, ”says five-year-old owen moss. 40. city farms are close to the following places except . a. shopping centers b. car repair shopsc. working-class community d. fast-food restaurants41. what is the authors attitude towards city farms? a. doubtful. b. enthusiastic. c. amazed. d. negative. 42. eco city farms have the following functions except that . a. they teach people how to have a sustainable communityb. they improve the relationships between people in a communityc. they demonstrate how to use green power in city lifed. they help people learn to appreciate the food they have43. in which column of a newspaper can you most probably read this article? a. people. b. environment. c. travel. d. health. ci travel a lot, and i find out different “styles” of directions every time i ask “how can i get to the post office?”foreign tourists are often confused in japan because most streets there dont have names; in japan, people use landmarks (地标) in their directions instead of street names. for example, the japanese will say to travelers, “go straight down to the corner. turn left at the big hotel and go past a fruit market. the post office is across from the bus stop.”in the countryside of the american midwest, there are not usually many landmarks. there are no mountains, so the land is very flat; in many places there are no towns or buildings within miles. instead of landmarks, people will tell you directions and distances. in kansas or iowa, for example, people will say, “go north two miles. turn east, and then go another mile.”people in los angeles, california, have no idea of distance on the map; they measure distance in time, not miles. “how far away is the post office?” you ask. “oh,” they answer, “its about five minutes from here.” you say, “yes, but how many miles away is it?” they dont know.its true that a person doesnt know the answer to your question sometimes. what happens in such a situation? a new yorker might say, “sorry, i have no idea.” but in yucatan, mexico, no one answers “i dont know.” people in yucatan believe that “i dont know” is impolite. they usually give an answer, often a wrong one. a tourist can get very, very lost in yucatan!44.when a tourist asks the japanese the way to a certain place, they usually _.a. describe the place carefully b. show him a map of the placec. tell him the names of the streetsd. refer to recognizable buildings and places45.what is the place where people measure distance in time?a. new york. b. los angeles.c. kansas.d. iowa.46.people in yucatan may give a tourist a wrong answer _.a. to save timeb. as a testc. to be polite d. for fun47.what can we infer from the text?a. its important for travelers to understand cultural differences.b. its useful for travelers to know how to ask the way properly.c. people have similar understandings of politeness.d. new yorkers are generally friendly to visitors.dall around the world, shoppers flock to wal-mart to buy everything. in texas, they come for another reason: to see the wind turbine（涡轮机）, which supplies 5% of the stores electricity. it along with other facilities, such as exterior walls coated with heat-reflective paint, makes this wal-mart a green giant.the laws of economics suggest that wal-mart, with 5, 200 stores worldwide, influences everything including the price of all kinds of goods. it throws its weight behind environmental responsibility, and the impact could be amazing. “one little change in product packaging could save 1, 500 trees,” says wal-mart ceo lee scott“if everybody saves 1, 500 trees or 50 barrels of oil, at the end of the day you have made a huge difference.”scott wants wal-mart to do its part too. he has promised to cut the existing greenhouse-gas emissions（排放）over the next few years and promised to construct new stores that are more efficient. he wants wal-marts fleet of more than 7, 000 trucks to get twice as many miles per gallon by 2015. factories that show wal-mart theyre cutting air pollution will get preferential treatment in the supply chain. wal-mart says its working with consumer-product manufacturers to reduce their packaging and will reward them if they do so.some people may doubt it is a bid to attract attention from wal-marts controversial labor and health-insurance practices. but its not just window dressing, because wal-mart sees profits in going green. scott says, “this is a business philosophy, not a social philosophy. we dont go where we dont think theres a great interest in change.”like bill gates, who started his charitable foundation, scott happens to be promoting wal-marts image at a time when his companys reputation is declining. he acknowledges that he launched the plan partly to shield （保护）wal-mart from bad press about its contribution to global warming. “by doing what were doing today, we avoid the headline risks that are going to come for people who did not do anything,” he says. “at some point businesses will be held responsible for the action they take.” meanwhile, should wal-mart succeed in shrinking its environmental footprint and lowering prices for green products, both the planet and the company will profit.48. we can infer from the passage that _.a. lee scott is wal-marts ceob. there are 5, 200 stores in the worldc. wal-mart has a great influence on the world marketd. wal-mart has more than 7, 000 trucks all over the world49. what will wal-mart probably do in the future?a. reduce air pollution in its present stores. b. give favorable treatment to its consumers.c. ask the factories to reduce their packaging.d. demand the fleet of trucks to use more fuel than before.50. what is the main idea of the last paragraph?a. provide the background of the green plan.b. stress the purpose of wal-marts green plan.c. present the risk that wal-mart is facing nowadays.d. analyze the similarity between bill gates and scott.评卷人得分四、七选五(共5小题;每小题2分，满分10分) 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 to forgive is a virtue, but no one has ever said it is easy. when someone has deeply hurt you, it can be extremely difficult to let go of your hate. however, forgiveness is possible, and it can be surprisingly beneficial to your physical and mental health. people who forgive show less sadness, anger and stress and more hopefulness, according to a recent research. 51_ try the following steps:calm yourself. 52 you can take a couple of breaths and think of something that gives you pleasure: a beautiful scene in nature, or someone you love. dont wait for an apology. many times the persons who hurt you do not intend to apologize. they may have wanted to hurt you or they just dont see things the same way. 53 keep in mind that forgiveness does not necessarily mean becoming friends again with the person who upset you.take the control away from your offender (冒犯者). rethinking about your hurt gives power to the person who causes you pain. instead of piling your sad feelin
