(共两节20小题；每小题2分，满分40分)第一节：阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项(a、b、c和d)中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。aone cold winter evening, some young families and young couples were eating in a mcdonalds when an old couple walked slowly into mcdonalds hand in hand. some of the customers looked admiringly at them .you could tell what the admirers were thinking. look, there is a couple who has been through a lot together, probably for 60 years or more.” the little old man walked right up to the cash register, placed his order with no hesitation(迟疑) and then paid for their meal. the couple took a table near the back wall and started taking food off the tray. there was one hamburger, one order of french fries and one drink. the little old man unwrapped(打开) the plain hamburger and carefully cut it in half. he placed one half in front of his wife. then he carefully counted out the french fries, divided them in two piles and neatly placed one pile in front of his wife. he took a sip(吸) of the drink, his wife took a sip and then set the cup down between them.when the man began to eat his few bites of hamburger, the crowd began to get restless. again you could tell what they were thinking. “that poor old couple. all they can afford is one meal for the two of them.” then, the man began to eat his french fries, when one young man stood and came over to the old couples table. he politely offered to buy another meal for the old couple to eat. but the old man replied that they were just fine and they were used to sharing everything.then the crowd noticed that the little old lady hadnt eaten a bite. she just sat there watching her husband eat and occasionally taking turns sipping the drink. when the little old man finished eating and was wiping his face neatly, the young man could stand it no longer. again he came over to their table and offered to buy some food.after being politely refused again, he finally asked a question of the little old lady. “maam, why arent you eating? you said that you shared everything. what is it that you are waiting for?” she answered, “the false teeth”.56. according to the first paragraph, the old couple _.a. enjoyed the scene outside the mcdonaldsb. didnt look suitable(合适的) for the environmentc. loved being with young families and couplesd. liked the food in mcdonalds57. the little old man cut the plain hamburger in half because _.a. he couldnt finish eating it with one biteb. he was very careful with his foodc. he ordered more than he could eatd. he wanted to share it with his wife58. the young man who offered to buy the old couple food was _.a. impoliteb. stubbornc. sympathetic(有同情心的)d. doubtful59. from the old ladys answer, we know that _.a. she was not interested in the foodb. the couple suffered a terrible toothachec. the couple were using the same false teethd. actually she didnt answer the young mans questionbwhat time is it? most people are pretty accurate in their answer. and if you dont know for sure, its a very likely that you can find out. there may be a watch on your wrist, there may be a clock on the wall, desk, or computer screen; or maybe youre riding in a car that has a clock in the dashboard(仪表板).even if you dont have a timepiece of some sort nearby, your body keeps its own beat. humans have an internal clock that regulates(调节) the beating of our heart, the pace of our breathing, the discharge(排出) of chemicals within our bloodstream, and many other bodily functions. time is something from which we cant escape. even if we ignore it, its still going by, ticking away, second by second, minute by minute, hour by hour. so the main issue in using your time well is, “whos in charge?” we can allow time to slip by and let it be our enemy. or we can take control of it and make it our ally.by taking control of how you spend your time, youll increase your chances of becoming a more successful student. perhaps more importantly, the better you are at managing the time you devote to your studies, the more time youll have to spend on your outside interests.the aim of time management is not to schedule every moment so we become slaves of a timetable that governs every waking moment of the day. instead, the aim is to make informed choices as to how we use our time. rather than letting the day go by, largely without our awareness, what we are going to discuss next can make us better able to control time for our own purposes.60. the underlined word “ally” in para. 3 probably means somebody or something that is _.a. your slave and serves youb. your supporter and helps youc. under your control and obeys youd. under your influence and follows you61. the author intends to tell us that time _.a. could be regulated by a timepiece such as a clock or a watchb. could be managed by the internal clock of human bodiesc. should be well managed for our own goodd. should be saved for outside interests62. in the next part, the author would most probably discuss with you _.a. how to keep up with the time b. how to make up for lost timec. how to have a good time d. how to make good use of timecbackpacking in americahi. my friend and i are two engineering students in new york. we are planning a backpacking

confucius(孔子) were still alive today and could celebrate his september 28 birthday with a big cake, there would be a lot of candles. hed need a fan or a strong wind to help him put them out. while many people in china will remember confucius on his special day, few people in the united states will give him a passing thought. its nothing personal. most americans dont even remember the birthdays of their own national heroes. but this doesnt mean that americans dont care about confucius. in many ways he has become a bridge that foreigners must cross if they want to reach a deeper understanding of china. in the past two decades, the chinese studies programs have gained huge popularity in western universities. more recently, the chinese government has set up confucius institutes in more than 80 countries. these schools teach both chinese language and culture. the main courses of chinese culture usually included chinese art, history and philosophy(哲学). some social scientists suggest that westerners should take advantages of the ancient chinese wisdom to make up for the drawbacks of westerners philosophy. students in the united states, at the same time, are racing to learn chinese. so they will be ready for life in a world where china is an equal power with the united states. businessmen who hope to make money in china are reading books about confucius to understand their chinese customers. so the old thinkers ideas are still alive and well. today china attracts the west more than ever, and it will need more teachers to introduce confucius and chinese cult
