dad and i are travelling on a ship to denmark.if you find this letter, please write back to me, and i will write back to you.” the letter, dated 1987, included an address in the town of coesfeld.the boy in the letter, frank uesbeck, is now 29.his parents still live at the letters address.the russian boy and the german man met each other earlier this month through an internet video link.the russian boy said he did not believe that the bottle actually spent 24 years in the sea.he believed it had been hidden under the sand where he found it for a long time.uesbeck was especially happy that he was able to have a positive effect on a life of a young person far away from germany.“its really a wonderful story, ” he said.“and who knows? perhaps one day we will actually be able to arrange a meeting in person.”21what is this passage mainly about?amessage in a bottle. ba beautiful beer bottle.ctravelling on a ship. dmeeting an old friend.22when the german boy threw the bottle into the sea,

say they never or hardly ever use dictionaries often speak english well but usually write poorly, because they make many mistakes.the students who use dictionaries most do not learn especially well either. the ones who look up every new word do not read fast. therefore they do not have time to read much. those who use small two-language dictionaries have the worst problems. their dictionaries often give only one or two words as translations of english. but one english word often has many translations in a foreign language and one foreign word has many translations in english.the most successful students are those who use large college edition dictionaries with about 100,000 words but do not use them too often. when they are reading, these students first try to get the general idea and understand new words from the context. then they reread and use the dictionary to look up only key words that they still do not understand. they use dictionaries more for writing. if they are not sure how to spell a word, or divide it into syllables (音节), they always use a dictionary. also, if they think a noun might have an unusual plural form, they check these in a dictionary.25the writer thinks that .a. choose a good dictionary, and youll be successful in learning englishb. dictionaries are not necessary to the students who learn englishc. it is very important for students to use good dictionaries properlyd. using dictionaries very often cant help to improve writing26 according to the passage, which of the following is wrong?a. dictionaries have little effect on learning to speak english.b. whatever new words you meet while reading, never use dictionaries.c. small two-language dictionaries have serious defects (缺陷).d. reading something for the first time, youd better not use dictionaries.27when in the reading does the writer advise students to use a good dictionary?a. at the beginning of the readingb. at the end of the readingc. during the first readingd. after the first reading28this passage mainly tells us .a. students shouldnt use small two-language dictionariesb. what were the defects of small two-language dictionariesc. why students should use large college edition dictionariesd. what dictionary students should choose and how to use it“success begins with belief and ends with doubt.”larina kasei remember reading through a book and the author was writing about being a reverse paranoid. in that particular section he mentions how he has a belief that the world hes living in is out to give him everything he absolutely wants and desires.there are times when i think to myself，“wow，the world is out to get me and make me miserable.” then i thought，why cant i believe that the world is out to make me a better conversationalist. then i started adapting to the belief of the reverse paranoia.when i started talking to people，i truly believed that i was the most interesting person in the room. i believed that everything i said added value to the conversation. i believed that people stayed behind and chatted with me because they found me charismatic.as a matter of fact, for about five months i wrote down on my bathroom mirror the following affirmation：“people love me and respect me. it is a privilege to talk to me. people find me interesting and charming and always want to get to know me better！”i would say the affirmation after i brushed my teeth. and i would continue to say it until i felt completely great about myself. there were days that i just wouldnt feel like saying it，because it would feel like a lie to me. but thats the trouble，like the quote says，success ends when theres doubt. and thats why i continued until i had no doubt in my mind.then strange things happened，i noticed that people did find me more interesting，and that i gained more confidence in talking with people. i was more assertive(坚定自信的) at work. i was able to control politics and gossip at work to minimal levels，and became a much better manager，and developed better customer relations to the point that sales were up by 20% compared to the year before，on my best month sales were up by 39%，and this was a year that a recession was happening.29the main purpose of the author is to_.aexplain how to be a reverse paranoidbshare his personal experience in successctell us the importance of positive thinkingdadvise us how to improve our communication skills30before the author started adapting to the belief of the reverse paranoia，he used to _.abelieve the world would give him anything he desiredbhave a negative attitude towards lifechave a strong belief in the worlddlive a miserable life31sometimes the author didnt feel like saying his affirmation because_.ait didnt work as he had expectedbhe had become enthusiastic about conversationsche had felt great about himselfdit didnt sound true to himself32we can infer from the last paragraph that the author_.adidnt believe what had happened at workbdidnt get along with others at workchad his performance at work affected by the recessiondmade great progress due to his affirmationif there is one person who has left a deep impression on me, its my teacher mrs. pathak who was my class teacher for three years. in my childhood, how i wished i had a mother or a sister like her. one moment she could be tough (严厉的) and strict, another moment caring and compassionate (富有同情心的).she always encouraged us to tell the truth. for instance, if one had not done the homework, he need not lie. she allowed us to make mistakes, saying we couldnt be perfect all the time, but we should try.another thing she taught me early on was punctuality. she set a good example with her own behaviour. she was always on time, so we students tried our best to be on time.she surprised us with her sense of humour. her classroom teaching was always humorous. after class, she talked to us and told us jokes.we really felt free to ask questions and mrs. pathak would give the answers. if she did not know there had been some occasions (场合) she would say so. we all then tried to find out the answers. whoever came up with the answer was appreciated and given the due credit (应有的称赞). now i sometimes wonder whether mrs. pathak was pretending just to encourage us to explore and find answers by ourselves.33according to the passage, which of the following is not suitable for describing mrs. pathak?a. tough. b. humorous.c. compassionate. d. careful.34 the underlined word “so” in the last paragraph means that _.a. the answers were not rightb. she didnt know the answersc. the answers were correctd. she would give the answers35 in the authors opinion, why didnt mrs. pathak give the answers to the questions sometimes?a. because she didnt like answering the questions.b. because she didnt know the answers to the questions.c. because she wanted the students to find them out by themselves.d. because she thought the students knew the answers already.第ii卷（非选择题）第一节、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根据短文内容。（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10 分）americas holiday shopping season started on black friday, the day after thanksgiving. 36 shoppers make the most
