in los angeles a year ago, a woman had complained to her upstairs neighbor that he was playing his drums too loud and too often. the drummer repeatedly ignored her. one day the woman walked upstairs and shot the drummer in the head and his girlfriend in the chest. the woman was sentenced to prison for 20 years. the dead drummer wont bother anyone with his drums, but the woman might be wishing now that she had learned to grin and bear it. if she were still living in her apartment, she could always move. when youre in prison, you dont have that option.24the man living below where edward lived was.aa deaf man bthe owner of the houseca tenant dan old neighbor25what did edward always do with rude neighbors?agrinning and bearing it. bpersuading them to stop repeatedly.cshouting them to dead. dmoving away from the rude neighbors.26the woman killed her neighbor because.ahe ignored her advice repeatedly bshe could not stand his playing the music too loudcshe could not put up with him any longer dhe played the drums too often27the author writes the last paragraph to prove that.abeing in prison means the loss of freedom bgrinning and bearing it is the best policycedward should follow the example of the woman dthe woman was right to kill her neighborc canadian short story writer alice munro won the nobel prize for literature. eighty-two-year-old munro is only the 13th woman to win the 112-year-old prize.munro didnt publish her first collection of short stories until she was 37 years old, but her stories have always been well-received. lots of her stories share similar themes and characters, but each story has its own twists and turns. even though shes won canadas most famous literary award, the giller prize twice, winning the nobel prize for literature is the peak of munros career. “it brings her incredible recognition, both of her and her career, and of the dedication(投身，奉献) to the short story,” said one person. along with the well-respected title comes 1.3 million dollars. munro said everything was “so surprising and wonderful” and that she was “dazed by all the attention and affection that has been coming my way.” munro knew she was in the listshe was named the second-most likely person to win this years prize, after haruki murakami (村上春树）of japanbut she never thought that she would win. munros win also represents the long way canadian writers have come.“when i began writing there was a very small community of canadian writers and little attention was paid by the world. now canadian writers are read, admired and respected around the globe,” munro said on thursday. she is technically not the first canadian to win the nobel prize for literature, but many like to think that she is. in 1976 saul bellow, who was born in quebec but moved to chicago when he was still a child, won the prize. even though he was born in canada, he is mostly considered to be an american writer. “this is a win for us all. canadians, by our very nature, are not very nationalistic,” said geoffrey taylor. “but things like this suddenly make you want to find a flag.” she wasnt sure if she would keep writing if she won the prize, saying that it would be “nice to go out with a bang. but this may change my mind.”28. what is the feature of munros stories?a. they have complicated (复杂的)contents.b. they have similar story backgrounds.c. they have specific themes for children.d. they have the same characters in each book.29. for munro, the nobel prize is an award for_.a. her love for canadian culture b. her devotion to the short storyc. her special form of writing d. her career of editing short stories30. what can you infer from the sixth paragraph?a. canadian writers paid little attention to the prize.b. canadian writers were respected across the globe.c. canadian writers have long been ignored.d. canadians come a long way to win the prize.31. what does the passage mainly tell us?a. how alice munro wins the nobel prizeb. an introduction to the nobel prize in literaturec. alice munro wins the nobel prize in literatured. a world famous writer, alice munrodyou can help! everyone was born with his own builtin burglar alarm. its called the sense of sight and sound. unfortunately, many of us go around with the alarm switched off.we dont see the stranger wandering outside the house next door. we dont notice the sounds from the flat upstairs. (werent they supposed to be on holiday?) the police can only do so much to prevent crime. there never can be enough ofthemto guard every home in every town. so they need your help in fighting with the burglars(窃贼), the vandals, and the car thieves. not, of course, by setting out to have a go every time you see something suspicious. itll always be the job of the police to arrest criminals. but by acting as a line of communication between them and your community. for instance, you probably know far more about your immediate neighborhoods than the police ever could. a stranger in someones garden would probably be far more obvious to you than it would to even the local police, if, of course, you were on the lookout. thats the whole idea behind the neighborhood watch schemes, springing up around the country to create a spirit of watchfulness within a community, anything suspicious being reported to the police. its early days yet, but results so far are very encouraging. the crime figures are already dropping in many of the areas running the scheme. and all due to people like you.21.the underlined word “them” refers to “_”.a.criminals b.the police c.neighbours d.strangers22.the advertisement points out that many people.a. are not ready to help the policeb. are not as watchful as they could bec. dont look after their gardens welld. dont tell their neighbors about their holidays23.one of the ways we could help prevent crime is to.a. turn on the alarm system in our homeb. try to stop criminals from escapingc. look out for people behaving suspiciouslyd. inform the police if we hear noises upstairs24.the purpose of the advertisement is to in their neighborhood.a ask people to join the police forceb advise people how to protect their homesc warn people about the increasing risk of crimed encourage people to be on watch for possible crime第二节（共5小题；每小题3分，满分15 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。five ways to build self-confidencewalk faster.one of the easiest ways to tell how a person feels about herself is to examine her walk. people with confidence walk quickly. they have places to go, people to see, or important work to do. even if you arent in a hurry, you can increase your self-confidence by putting some energy in your step.36 .37 one of the best ways to build confidence is listening to an inspiring speech. unluckily, chances to listen to a great speaker are few. you can fill this need by creating a personal speech. write a 3060-second speech that focuses on your strengths and goals then recite it aloud whenever you need a confidence push.sit in the front row.in school, offices and some other public places people always sit at the back of the room,38 this is for lack of self-confidence. by deciding to sit in the front row, you can get over this meaningless fear and build your self-confidence.speak up.during group discussions many people never express their opinions because theyre afraid that people will judge them for their saying something stupid.39 by making an effort to express your opinions at least once in every group discussion, youll become a better public speaker, more confident in your own thoughts.along the same lines as personal appearance, physical fitness has huge effect on self-confidence.40 by making your body fit and strong, you improve your physical appearance, refresh yourself, and learn something positive.a. most people prefer that because theyre afraid of being noticed.b. walking 25% faster will make you look and feel more important.c. in fact most people feel good after a walk.d. if youre out of shape, youll feel unattractive and less energetic.e. listen to an inspiring speech.f. create a personal speech.g. in fact most people are dealing with the same fear.第三部分 英语知识运用（共两节，满分55分）第一节 完形填空（共20小题；每小题2分，满分40分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的四个选项（a、b、c和d）中，选出可以填人空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。 what are consequences of laziness?
