A woman drove up to the Rainbow Bridge tollbooth(收费站). “Im paying for myself, and for the six cars behind me,” she said with a smile, handing over seven tickets. One after another, the next six drivers arriving at the tollbooth were informed, “Some lady up ahead already paid your fare.” It turned out that woman, Natalie Smith, had read something on a friends refrigerator: “Practice random (任意的 )kindness and senseless acts of beauty.” The phrase impressed her so much that she copied it down. Judy Foreman spotted the same phrase on a warehouse wall far away from home. When it stayed on her mind for days, she gave up and drove all the way back to copy it down. “I thought it was beautiful,” she said, explaining why shed taken to writing it at the bottom of all her letters, “like a message from the above.” Her husband, Frank, liked the phrase so much that he put it up on the classroom wall for his students, one of whom was the daughter of Alice Johnson, a local news reporter. Alice put it in the newspaper, admitting that though she liked it, she didnt know where it came from or what it really meant. Two days later, Alice got a call from Anne Herbert, a woman living in Martin. It was in a restaurant that Anne wrote the phrase down on a piece of paper, after turning it around in her mind for days. “Heres the idea,” Anne says. “Anything you think there should be more of, do it randomly.” Her fantasies include painting the classroom of shabby schools, leaving hot meals on kitchen tables in the poor part of town, and giving money secretly to a proud old lady. Anne says, “Kindness can build on itself as much as violence can.” The acts of random kindness spread. If you were one of those drivers who found your fare paid, who knows what you might have been inspired to do for someone else later? Like all great events, kindness begins slowly, with every single act. Let it be yours！25. Why did Natalie Smith pay for the six cars behind her? A. She knew the car drivers well. B. She wanted to show kindness. C. She hoped to please others.D. She had seven tickets.26. Judy Foreman copied down the phrase because she _. A. thought it was beautifully writtenB. wanted to know what it really meant C. decided to write it on a warehouse wallD. wanted her husband to put it up in the classroom27. Who came up with the phrase according to the passage? A. Judy Foreman B. Natalie Smith C. Alice JohnsonD. Anne Herbert28. Which of the following statements is closest in meaning to the underlined sentence above? A. Kindness and violence can change the world.B. Kindness and violence can affect ones behavior.C. Kindness and violence can reproduce themselves.D. Kindness and violence can shape ones character. CReading can be a social activity. Think of the people who belong to book groups. They choose books to read and then meet to discuss them. Now, the website BookC turns the page on the traditional idea of a book group. Members go on the site and register the books they own and would like to share. BookCrossing provides an ID number to stick inside the book. Then the person leaves it in a public place, hoping that the book will have an adventure, traveling far and wide with each new reader who finds it.Bruce Pederson, the managing director of BookCrossing, says “The two things that change your life are the people you meet and books you read. BookCrossing combines both.”Members leave books on park benches and buses, in train stations and coffee shops. Whoever finds their book will go to the site and record where they found it.People who find a book can also leave a journal entry describing what they thought of it. E-mails are then sent to the BookCrossers to keep them updated about where their books have been found. Bruce Pederson says the idea is for people not to be selfish by keeping a book to gather dust on a shelf at home.BookCrossing is part of a trend among people who want to get back the “real” and not the virtual(虚拟). The site now has more than one million members in more than one hundred thirty-five countries.29. Why does the author mention book groups in the first paragraph? A. To explain what they areB. To introduce BookCrossing C. To stress the importance of readingD. To encourage readers to share their ideas30. What will a BookCrosser do with a book after reading it?A. Meet other readers to discuss itB. Keep it safe in his bookstoreC. Pass it on to another reader D. Mail it back to its owner31. What is the best title for the text?A. Online Reading: A Virtual Tour B. Electronic Books: A New TrendC. A Book Group Brings Tradition BackD. A Website Links People through books D Most people who fly on passenger planes in the United States do not lose their luggage. Even if the luggage is lost, usually it is only delayed. Most “lost” luggage is found in a few days. Airlines search for the owners of unclaimed(未认领的) bags for up to three months. But when the owners cannot be found or the bags are not claimed, they are sold to a store in the small city of Scottsboro, in the southern state of Alabama.About one-half of one percent of all luggage passing through US airports is unclaimed. Many of the missing bags, and what is in them, are sold at the Unclaimed Baggage Center. Seven thousand items arrive at the store every day. Tom Barnes, who was shopping at the store said, “I can go into any of the large shopping centers, like the international malls. I can walk through there for an hour and come out with three items. But I come into this store, and then I come out with my car full of stuff.”Brenda Cantrell, who works at the store, said, “The Unclaimed Baggage Center is the only store in America that buys and resells unclaimed baggage from the airline industry. You would be surprised at all the jackets, eyeglasses, neck pillows, blankets, laptops, Kindles, iPads, and you know, all kinds of expensive electronics.”The store says it once sold a container for flowers for $80 that was found to be worth $18,000. And it says a painting it sold for $25 was later found to be worth $25,000.The store buys the luggage from the airlines. It does not examine the things inside them before buying them. Only about half of the items in the bags are suitable for sale at the store.Some people say it is not fair to the owners of the lost passage to sell their goods. Customer Daniel Martin is not one of them, saying, “I feel the airport may try to find the people that lose the things. If theyve tried and they cant get a hold of them, its better than throwing them away or just letting them rot in a warehouse somewhere.”32. According to the text, what may happen to the US airline luggage? A. The luggage is often delayed. B. A large percentage of luggage is lost. C. Some luggage will be sold if nobody claims it. D.

C. he prefers to shop at international malls D. the store is no different from any other shopping center.34. Whats Daniel Martins attitude towards the practice of the airlines? A. He thinks its unusual. B. He thinks its frightening. C. He thinks its acceptable. D. He thinks its improper.35. What would be the best title for the text? A. What happens to lost US airline luggage? B. A new shopping center in the US. C. Is it fair to the airline passengers? D. Tips on finding “lost” luggage. 第二节 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, 并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。选项中有两项为多余选项。（共5小题；每小题2分,满分10分）Eyesight plays an important role in our daily life.
