wrap（包装）. on september 11 ,1958, mum gave birth to richard. after she brought him home from hospital, she put him in my lap, saying ,”i promised you a gift, and here it is .” what an honor! i turned four a month earlier and none of my friends had such a baby doll of their own. i played with it day and night. i sang to it. i told it stories. i told it over and over how much i loved it! one morning, however, i found its bed empty. my doll was gone! i cried for it. mum wept and told me that the poor little thing had been sent to a hospital. it had a fever. for several days, i heard mum and dad whispering such words as “hopeless”, “pitiful”，and “dying”, which sounded ominous. christmas was coming, dont expect any presents this year ”dad said, pointing at the socks i hung in the living room. id never seen him cry before. the phone rang early on christmas morning. dad jumped out of bed to answer it. from my bedroom i heard him say ,”what? hes all right?” he hung up and shouted upstairs .”the hospital said we can bring richard home! ” “thank god!” i heard mum cry. from the upstairs window. i watched my parents rush out to the car. i had never seen them so happy. and i was also full of joy. what a wonderful day! my baby doll would be home. i ran downstairs. my socks still hung there flat. but i knew they were not empty: they were filled with love!55. what happened to the author on september 11, 1958 ?a. he received a doll b. he got a christmas gift c. he became four years old d. he got a baby brother56.what does the underlined word “ominous” in paragraph 3 probably mean？a. impossible. b. fearful c. difficult d. boring57.which word can best describe the feeling of the father when christmas was coming?a. excitement. b. happiness. c. sadness. d. disappointment.58.what is the passage mainly about ?a .a sad christmas day b. life with a lovely baby c. memories of a happy family. d.a special christmas gift. c people often use gestures to express our feelings, but the problem is that the gestures can be understood in different ways. it is true that a smile means the same thing in any language. so does laughter or crying. fear is another emotion(情感) that is shown in much the same way all over the world. in chinese and in english literature, a phrase like “he went pale and began to tremble” suggests that the man is either very afraid or he has just got a very big shock. however, “he opened his eyes wide” is used to suggest anger in chinese whereas in english it means surprise. in chinese, surprise can be described in a phrase like “they stretched out their tongues!” “stretching out your tongue” in english is an insulting(侮辱的, 无礼的)gesture or expresses strong dislike. even in the same culture, people differ in their ability to understand and express feelings. experiments in america have shown that women are usually better than men at recognizing fear, anger, love and happiness on peoples faces. other studies show that older people usually find it easier to understand body language than younger people do. 59. which of the following is true according to the text? a. we can easily understand what peoples gestures mean. b. it is difficult to tell what peoples gestures really mean sometimes.c. gestures can be understood by most people but words are not. d. words can be better understood by older people.60.peoples facial expressions may be misunderstood in different cultures because _ . a. people from different cultures have different meanings about some facial expressionsb. people speaking different languages have different facial expressionsc. people of different ages may have different interpretations (解释)d. people of different sexes may understand a gesture differently61.from the passage, we can conclude(得出结论) that _ . a. words are often more difficult to understand than gesturesb. gestures can be more effectively used than words to express feelingsc. gestures can be used to express feelingsd. gestures are used as frequently as words to express feelings62.the best title for this passage can be _ . a. gestures b. feelings c. culture and understanding d. gestures and feelings dparents have widely different views on the problem of pocket money. four new fathers were asked this question and this is how they answered. ashish khanna: although many argue that pocket money helps develop childrens sense of value, i dont agree. i wouldnt give my child any pocket money. first of all, i never got pocket money and i seem to have a good value for money. if my child ever needed something and i felt it was a reasonable (合理的) request, i would buy it for him. sharad sanghi: no, i wouldnt give my child pocket money because i dont want to create the perception (观念) of “her” money and “my” money. besides, if i refuse to buy her something that i think is bad for her, she may buy it with her pocket money on the sly. in this way, i would lose control over my childs requests. i feel it also encourages children to care more about money than anything else. i dont want my child to start judging other children by the amount of money or pocket money they have. rakesh shah: yes, i would give my child pocket money because i feel that children should learn to spend money properly. i will give him a fixed amount every month and if he spends the money before the month is over, he will learn a lesson and not spend money so freely. he will learn what his limitations (限制) are and feel the difficulty when he has to pay for something that is over his own pocket. rajiv patel: yes, i would give my child pocket money because it is important that he learns to manage money. but i would not give it to him on a weekly or monthly basis. he would have to earn it. if he helped me finish some of my jobs or helped his mother with housework, i would reward him. this helps him realize that “money does not grow on trees” and it requires hard work to earn money.63 ashish khanna may agree that _.a. he was given too much pocket money when youngb. he can take much control of his child by moneyc. he will buy anything he thinks his child really needsd. pocket money helps children develop a good value for money e根据短文内容，从下框ae 选项中选出能概括每段主题的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该选项涂黑。选项中有一项为多余项。a. a sense of humour helps us from several aspects.b. a sense of humour can be developed in our life. c. a sense of humour is not an inborn ability.d. a sense of humour means more than telling jokes. e. a sense of humour can be expressed in many ways. 67. _as awareness of the benefits of humour increases, most of us want to get all the laughs we can. it seems that almost every day there is another new discovery about the power of humour to help us physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually. every system of the body responds to laughter in some important or positive way . 68._ many people mistakenly believe that we are born with a sense of humour. they think that when it comes to a sense of humour. “either you have got it or you dont . ” this is false! what is true, however, is that the ability to laugh and smile is actually something we are born with. for example, we laugh when we are tickled under the arm, even without thinking about how to react. 69._ the parts of the brain and central nervous system that control laughing and smiling are mature at birth in human infants, but that is not the same thing as having a sense of humour. (after all, when a baby laughs in his small bed we dont rush over and say, “that kid has a great sense of humour!”) your sense of humour is something you can develop over a lifetime. dont be nervous before others and try to laugh at yourself-then you will make them laugh too. 70._ humour includes a lot more than laughing and joke telling. many people worry needlessly that they do not have a good sense of humour because they are not good joke tellers. more than jokes, a sense of humour requires being willing and able to see the funny side of lifes situations as they happen. in fact, one of the best definitions（定义）of a sense of humour is “the ability to see the nonserious element in a situation. ” 五按照课文内容填空 （共10小题；每小题0.5分，满分5分）阅读下面的短文, 在标有序号的空白处填入一个适当的词, 或填入括号中动词的适当形式。born into a poor farmers family in 1930, dr yuan decided to find ways to grow more rice. as a young man, he saw the great need _71_ increasing the rice output. at that time, hunger was a _72_ problem in many parts. dr yuan searched for a way to increase rice harvests without _73_（expand）the area of the fields. in 1950, chinese farmers could produce only fifty million tons of rice. in a recent harvest, _74_, nearly two hundred million tons of rice
