in english is one of the effective ways to improve our english writing ability. 16 (compare) with other forms of writing, it is 17 (short) and takes less time. it can help us to develop the habit of thinking in english. 18 we persist（坚持）in this practice, gradually well learn how to express 19 in english. in keeping a diary in english, we certainly run up against many 20 (difficult). in the first place, 21 often happens that we have trouble finding appropriate words and phrases to give expression to our mind. secondly, there are many idiomatic（习语的）ways of saying things in chinese. and it is extremely hard for us to put them into english properly.as far as i 22 (concern), my suggestion is that we should always have a notebook and a chinese-english dictionary within easy reach. whenever something beats us, we can first put it down in our notebook and then consult our dictionary. we can also turn to our english teacher for help, if necessary. 23 a nutshell, i believe that it is 24 great use to keep a diary in english for 25 development of our writing skills.第二部分：阅读理解(共20小题；每小题2分，满分40分)阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项(a、b、c、d)中，选出最佳选项。 amr. harris used to work in dover, but then he changed his work, and he and his wife moved to another town. they did not have many friends there, but they soon met a lot of interesting people, and after a few weeks, they often went to dinner or to parties at other peoples houses. then mrs. harris said to her husband, “weve been to a lot of other peoples houses, and now we must invite them to our house, mustnt we?” “yes, certainly,” answered her husband, “a big party will be the easiest thing, wont it? then we can start to invite people to dinner in small numbers next month.” so mrs. harris said, “yes, ill invite all our friends here to a big party on 5th december.” “how many will that be?” mr. harris asked. “dont invite too many.” mrs. harris was beginning to write the invitations when her husband saw that she was writing “party: 6:30 to 8:30 p.m.”“that isnt very nice, is it?” he said. “youre telling our guests that they must go at 8:30.” so mrs. harris just wrote “party: 6:30 p.m.” a lot of guests came, and they all had a good time, so they did not go home at 8:30. in fact they were still there at mid-night when the door bell rang and a policeman arrived. he said, “you must stop making a noise, because someone has complained.” mr. harris said he did not want to quarrel with the policeman, so everyone went home. they were sorry to have to go. when mr. and mrs. harris were alone again, she said to him. “that was a surprise, wasnt it? who complained about the noise?” “i did,” mr. harris answered in a tired voice. 26.why did mr. harris and his wife move to another town?a. they wanted to make some new friends.b. mr. harris

unexpected endingb. a noisy nightc. the best party everd. a warm couple and their neighbors benglish is the most widely used language in the history of our planet. one in every seven human beings can speak it. more than half of the worlds books and three quarters of international mails are in english. of all languages, english has the largest vocabulary perhaps as many as two million words. however, lets face it: english is a crazy language. there is no egg in an eggplant, neither pine nor apple in a pineapple and no ham in a hamburger. sweet-meats are candy, while sweetbreads, which arent sweet, are meat.we take english for granted. but when we explore its paradoxes (矛盾), we find that quicksand can work slowly, boxing rings are square, and public bathrooms have no baths in them. and why is it that a writer writes, but fingers dont fing, grocers dont groce, and hammers dont ham? if the plural of tooth is teeth, shouldnt the plural of booth be beeth? one goose, two geese so one moose, two meese? how can a slim chance and a fat chance be the same, while a wise man and a wise guy are opposites? how can overlook and oversee be opposites, while quite a lot and quite a few are alike? how can the weather be hot as hell one day and cold as hell the next? english was invented by people, not computers, and it reflects (反映) the creativity of human beings. thats why, when stars are out, they are visible (能看见的); but when the lights are out, they are invisible. and why, when i wind up my watch, i start it; but when i wind up this essay, i end it. 31.according to the passage _. a. sweet-meats and sweetbreads are different things b. there should be egg in an eggplant c. pineapples are the apples on the pine treed. boxing rings should be round 32.which of the following is the correct plural? a. beeth.b. geese.c. meese.d. tooth. 33which of the following includes two items which have the similar meaning? a. a wise man and a wise guy.b. overlook and oversee. c. quite a lot and quite a few.d. hot as hell and cold as hell. 34.the underlined words “wind up” in the last paragraph probably mean “_”. a. blowb. roll upc. get hurtd. finish 35.through the many paradoxes in the english language, the writer wants to show that human beings are _. a. cleverb. crazyc. lazyd. dullctime talks. it speaks more plainly than words. time communicates in many ways. consider the different parts of the day, for example. the time of the day when something is done can give a special meaning to the event. factory managers in the united states fully realize the importance of an announcement（通知）made during the middle of the morning or afternoon that takes everyone away from his work. in the united states, it is not usual to telephone someone very early in the morning. if you telephone him early in the day, while he is shaving or having breakfast, the time of the call shows that the matter is very urgent（紧急的）and needs immediate attention. it is the same with telephone calls made after 11：00 p. m. if someone receives a call during sleeping hours, he probably thinks it is a matter of life or death. the time chosen for the call communicates its importance. the meanings of time differ in different parts of the world. thus, misunderstanding arises between people from cultures that treat time differently. in the united states, people often think of time as something fixed in nature, something from which one cannot escape. as a rule, americans think of time as a road into the future, along which one progresses. the road has many sections （段）, which are to be kept separate “one thing at a time”. thus, an american may feel angry when he has made an appointment with someone and then finds a lot of other things happening at the same time. americans look ahead and are concerned almost entirely with the future. the american idea of the future is limited, however. it is the foreseeable future and not the future of involving（包括） many centuries. since time has many different meanings in different cultures, communication is often difficult. we will understand each other a little better if we can keep this fact in mind. 36.according to the passage, an announcement made during the day in a factory must be very important because _.a. it interrupts the work of all employees b. it is made by the managerc. it makes everyone lose his job d. it communicates in many ways37.in the united states in the view of the writer, a phone call made after 11:00 p.m. is considered _. a. as important as one made in the morning b. impolite since it disturbs the receivers sleepc. to be a threat to the receivers life d. as urgent as one made early in the morning 38.an american may feel angry if _.a. he is to deal with many things at one appointed timeb. people from different cultures misunderstand him c. he cannot escape from something fixed in nature d. others do not keep things separate. 39.the writer concludes that people of different countries will understand each other better if _.a. they know how to communicate with each other b. they are concerned with the future c. they learn the way time communicates d. they keep in mind that different cultures treat time differently40. which is the best title for the passage?a. how to make an appointment?b. american culturesc. the voices of time.d. the importance of communication don april 20, 2013, the bronx high school of science will celebrate its 75th anniversary, hosted by the alumni association（校友会）. the evening will include a reception, dinner and speeches from well-known alumni, who donate a large amount of money to the school regularly. these activities can ensure that bronx science is well funded for years to come. bronx science is considered as one of the best high schools in the united states, public or private, ranking in the top 100 in news and world reports lists of americas gold-medal high schools in 2008 and 2009.throughout the years, the bronx high school of science attracts a gifted group of students, most of whom are first-generation americans. the only criterion（标准）for admission is an exam open to all grade-eligible（合适的）students in new york city. although the student body is diverse, including almost every ethnic group in new york city, about 63% of the bronx sciences student population is asian. whites, blacks, and hispanics represent 23.51%, 3.33%, and 6.89% of the schools student population. the ratio of female to male students as of 2012 is forty-two to fifty-eight. for every 42 female students there are 58 male student counterparts. due to the special curriculum (课程) of this public school, many of its programs and classes must find extra money outside of department of education support. therefore, the role of parents association and alumni association is important to its success. the schools students, known as “scienceites”, have graduated to become alumni who include eight nobel prize winners, countless authors, lawyers, physicians, educators, artists, entertainers and leaders in business and government.41.in which year was bronx high school of science founded? a. 1975b. 1938c. 1957d. 1983 42. what is the meaning of the
