he has to repeat exactly the same words each time he plays a certain part, even his movements and the ways in which he uses his voice are usually fixed beforehand (预先). what he has to do is to make all these carefully learnt words and actions seem natural on the stage. a good teacher works in quite a different way. his audience takes an active part in his play： they ask and answer questions, they obey orders, and if they dont understand something, they say so. the teacher therefore has to meet the needs of his audience, which is his class. he cannot learn his part by heart, but must invent it as he goes along. i have known many teachers who were fine actors in class but were unable to take part in a stage-play because they could not keep strictly to what another had written.61. what is the text about? a. how to become a good teacher. b. what a good teacher should do outside the classroom. c. what teachers and actors could learn from each other. d. the similarities (相似处) and differences between a teachers work and an actors.62. a good teacher _ . a. knows how to hold the interest of his studentsb. must have a good voice c. knows how to act on the stage d. stands or sits still while teaching63. in what way is a teachers work different from an actors? a. the teacher must learn everything by heart. b. he knows how to control his voice better than an actor. c. he has to deal with unexpected situations. d. he has to use more facial expressions.64 .the main difference between students in class and a theatre audience is that _. a. students can move around in the classroom b. students must keep silent while theatre audience neednt c. no memory work is needed for the students d. the students must take part in their teachers plays65. which of the following is true? a. teachers have to learn by heart what they are going to say in class. b. a teacher cannot decide beforehand what exactly he is going to say in class. c. a teacher must speak louder than an actor. d. a teacher must have a better memory than an actor. ceat healthier. exercise twice a week. read more books. lose weight. we make the same resolutions (决心) every year, but most of us fail, dying out after only a few days or, at best, weeks. even the most successful among us crash and burn when it comes to personal change. president-elect barack obama struggles to remove his cigarette habit. professionals who help people make changes in their lives suggest the change is determined not by ones surroundings, but ones mind. beginning with small goals or steps usually leads to a bigger payoff later, they say. but they caution that the experience is different for everyone. people are more likely to make positive changes in their lives not only when their friends do, but when friends of their friends do, and when friends of their friends of friends do, said nicholas christakis, a professor of medical sociology at harvard university. people are better able to make changes in their liveslose weight, quit smoking, become happy when they do this with a large number of other people, and so taking advantage of your social network ties can contribute to your own efforts. johnny augustine understands that well. his resolution for 2008 was to reduce 30 pounds from his 237-pound frame. but the change didnt come easily. he said, im a procrastinator. i kept putting it off until tomorrow. i didnt get to do it until the summer. however, augustine got inspired when he saw his older brother working out. today, augustine weighs 190 pounds. of course, change can happen only if people dont set their expectations too high or try to deal with too many changes at once; one of the biggest mistakes we make is setting unrealistic goals, said dalia llera, a psychologist at lesley university. you cant finish in a few weeks what you havent finished in a few years, said llera.66. from the first paragraph we can infer that _. a. change for a person is challenging b. famous people have great determination c. most people dont want to change themselves d. personal change is beyond belief67. it is known from nicholas christakis that _. a. making a change is easier with support from a cheerful group of friends b. social networks have great effect on ones change c. people who have the same attitude often get together d. peoples mood can contribute to their efforts68. the word procrastinator in paragraph 4 refers to those who . a. have great determination to make a change b. have no desire to do something great c. put off work especially because of laziness d. have habitual carelessness and laziness69. according to the passage, delia llera suggested that _. a. people should understand their goals well b. people should try their best to change themselves c. people should have confidence and positive habits d. people should start with setting small goals to meet70. the passage is mainly about _. a. the reason why losing weight is so hard b. the effect of the positive change c. the attitudes towards change in life d. the ways of making a changedthe first day of school our professor introduced himself and challenged us to get to know someone we didnt already know. i stood up to look around, when a gentle hand touched my shoulder. i turned around to find wrinkled(有皱纹的), little old lady with a warm smile. she said, hi handsome. my name is rose. im eighty-seven years old.” why are you in college at such a young age? i asked. she replied, im here to meet a rich husband, get married, have a couple of kids and then retire(退休) and travel. i knew she was joking. i was curious what might have motivated her to be taking on this challenge at her age.i always dreamed of having a college education and now im getting one! she told me. we became friends. every day we would talk nonstop(不停地) after class. i was always interested in listening to this time machine as she shared her wisdom and experience with me. and rose easily made friends wherever she went.at the end of the term we invited rose to make a little speech. she cleared her throat and began, we do not stop playing because we are old; we grow old because we stop playing. ive learned a few secrets to staying young, being happy, and achieving success. you have to laugh and find humor every day. youve got to have a dream. when you lose your dreams, you die.”“there is a huge difference between growing older and growing up. anybody can grow older. that doesnt take any talent or ability. the idea is to grow up by always finding the opportunity in change. “have no regrets. the elderly usually dont have regrets for what we did, but rather for things we did not do”71. when the writer and rose first met, they began their talk in a _ way.a. serious b. polite c. formal d. humorous72. which of the following has the similar meaning to the underlined word “motivated” in the fourth paragraph ?a. encouraged b. persuaded c. taught d. forced73. rose went to college in order to _.a. meet a rich husband b. make new friends c. get a college education d. get a better job74. the writer considered roses as a “time machine” because _.a. she always came to class on time.b. she make friends easily at college.c. she knew the difference between growing older and growing upd. she enjoyed a long life and had lots of wisdom and experience.75. from this passage we know rose believed _.a. “the early bird catches the worm” b. “it is never too late to learn”c. “a bird in the hand is worth two in the bushes”d. “one false step will make a great difference”第四部分 写作（共两节，满分35分）第一节：阅读表达（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）阅读下面短文并回答问题，然后将答案写到答题卡相应的位置上（请注意问题后的词数要求）。 1 its said that exercise is important for our body because it helps us feel relaxed, full of energy and healthy. similarly, reading is important for us, as it gives lots of advantages to a person and its like a source to feed our mind. 2 firstly, it can help us explore worlds that _: we can travel into the past. we can find out how people lived and how they dressed. we can also read about the future and science fiction books can offer us an interest
