skies, warm air and a calm, inviting sea touching the shore gently. my father realised it was a good day for fishing and invited my sister and me to go with him.i was only 14 and fishing had never been my thing, but i decided to go all the same. im so glad i did.on the road to the harbour we could see the terrible destruction on the coast,but the harbour itself was in fairly good shape.after all,it was protected by the arms of a bay that had only one tiny channel to the sea.as we got on board,we noticed two big humps (脊背) in the distance. on approaching them, we saw it was a mother whale with her baby. we couldnt believe it there arent any whales along the coast here.the storm must have driven them across the ocean into the bay, in which the still water was so badlly polluted that nothing could survive.the little baby whaleactually as big as our boatwas obviously stuck and could not move.the mother dived under the water and came up suddenly, making big whirlpools(漩涡) and waves. “shes trying to help her baby, but on the wrong side,”my father said. at this point, my father moved our boat in a semicircle to the other side and, heading the boat towards the baby whale, pushed it gently. with our several gentle pushes the big hump turned over and disappared under water.then it swam up right beside its mum.they struggled in their desperate attempts to escape but missed the exit and started heading in the wrong direction.we hurried up to the whales and tried to lead them towards the bay channel. showly, they let us lead them, some-times rising from the water right beside us to breatheand to give us a trusting look with those huge eyes. once they hit their first part of clean water flowing straight from the sea, the mum gave us a wave with her tail and off they swam into the distance.in the excitement, it had felt like only a few minutes, but we had been with those wonderful animals for almost an hour and a half. that was the simple and lasting beauty of the day. nearly four decades later, i still look back fondly to that golden day at sea.21. the author says “im so glad i did ” because _.a. he witnessed the whole process of fishingb. he enjoyed the beauty of

reducing traffic jams during rush hour. the new policy asked 800,000 employees to replace their former working schedule of 8:30 am to 5:30 pm with the new working hours of 9 am to 6 pm. this is just one part of the beijing municipal governments plan to fight traffic jams. starting april 1, daytime parking fees in 13 downtown areas were raised to encourage less driving. on april 2, the government announced limitations launched after the beijing olympics would be extended until april 2012. these ban beijings 5.8 million drivers from driving one workday each week. the ban is based on the last number of the car license plate. a multi-billion yuan fund has also been set up to build more underground ring roads in heavily populated areas. major roads above ground will also be expanded. according to beijings traffic authorities, key projects include repairing major ring roads and expanding the subway network. the city will also create more taxi stops and bike rental stations, probably under the hundreds of overpasses (天桥) citywide. beijings fight against traffic jams is a smaller example of what is happening all around china. the central government is now supporting new ideas that will change the future of chinese roads. bus rapid transit (brt,快速公交系统) is one such idea. special bus lanes carry almost as many passengers as a subway system. they cost less and are becoming popular in many big cities. now beijing has five brt lines shanghai is dealing with traffic problems by charging higher fees for license plates（牌照）. the city is also controlling the total number of plates sold. now, it is considering a plan to charge cars for entering the central business district, as london does. meanwhile, there are signs that chinese are more aware of the serious problem of traffic. for example, there has been a sharp increase in the number of posts looking for carpooling (拼车) partners on major websites. by the end of march, 2010, china had 192 million cars, according to the ministry of public security.29. the article is mainly about_.a. the fight against traffic jams all around the worldb. the increase of daytime parking fees in 13 downtown areas in beijing c. the beijing municipal governments measures to reduce traffic jamsd. news ideas that are likely to change the future of chinese roads30. according to the new policy, workday office hours in beijing will be_.a. from 8:00 am to 5:00 pm b. from 9 am to 6 pm c. from 8:30 am to 5:30 pm d. from 7:30 am to 4: 30 pm 31. the plans made by the beijing municipal government to fight traffic jams include all the following except _a. adjustments to office hours b. increases in daytime parking fees c. the extension of the limitations launched after the beijing olympics d. charging higher fees for license plates32. the article tells us that_.a. the brt system will become common chinas rural areas b. the chinese government is aiming at changing the future of chinese roadsc. the shanghai government has charged cars for entering the central business districtd. here are enough ways to deal with traffic jams in beijingdfor many parents, raising a teenager is like fighting a long war, but years go by without any clear winner. like a border conflict between neighboring countries, the parent-teen war is about boundaries: where is the line between what i control and what you do?both sides want peace, but neither feels it has any power to stop the conflict. in part, this is because neither is willing to admit .any responsibility for starting it . from the parents point of view, the only cause of their fight is their adolescents complete unreasonableness. and of course, the teens see it in exactly the same way , except oppositely . both feel trapped.in this article. ill describe three no-win situations that commonly arise between teens and parents and then suggest some ways out of the trap. the first no-win situation is quarrels over unimportant things. examples include the color of the teens hair, the cleanliness of the bedroom, the preferred style of clothing, the childs failure to eat a good breakfast before school, or his tendency to sleep until noon on the weekends .second, blaming, the goal of a blaming battle is to make the other admit that his bad attitude is the reason why everything goes wrong. third, needing to be right, it doesnt matter what the topic is politics, the laws of physics, or the proper way to break an egg the point of these arguments is to prove that you are right and the other person is wrong, for both wish to be considered an authority(权威) - someone who actually knows something - and therefore to win respect. unfortunately, as long as parents and teens continue to think that they know more than the other, theyll continue to fight these battles forever and never make any real progress. 33. why does the author compare the parentteen war to a border conflict?a. both can continue for generations. b. both are about where to draw the line c. neither has any clear winner d. neither can be put to an end 34. what does the underlined part in paragraph 2 mean?a. the teens blame their parents for starting the conflict.b. the teens agree with their parents on the cause of the conflict c. the teens accuse their parents of misleading them d. the teens tend to have a full understanding of their parents 35. parents and teens want to be right because they want to _.a. give orders to the other b. know more than the other c. gain respect from the other d .get the other to behave

you are probably quiet, shy, and you would rather follow than lead. you tend to be pessimist. at least, this is what psychologists tell us, and they should know, because they have been seriously studying the meaning of color preference, as well as the effect that colors have on human beings. 37 . if you happen to love brown, you did so, as soon as you opened your eyes, or at least as soon as you could see clearly. 38 . a yellow room makes most people feel more cheerful and more relaxed than a dark green one; and a red dress brings warmth and cheer to the saddest winter day. 39 . a black bridge over the thames river, near london, used to be the scene of more suicides（自杀）than any other bridge in the area -until it was repainted green. the number of suicide attempts immediately fell sharply. perhaps it would have fallen even more if the bridge had been done in pink or baby blue. 40 . it is an established fact that factory workers work better, harder, and have fewer accidents when their machines are painted orange rather than black or grey. a. on the other hand, black is depressing. b. they tell us, among other facts, that we do not choose our favorite color as we grow up-we are born with our preference.c. the rooms are painted in different colors as you like. d. if you do, you must be an optimist, a leader, an active person who enjoys life, people and excitement. e. light and bright colors make people not only happier but more active. f. life is like a picture or a poem, full of different colors. g. colors do influence our moods-there is no doubt about it. 第三部分
