what had held him back before? the next day my dad pulled out his childhood pictures and told me quite a few stories about his own childhood. although our times together became easier over the years, i never felt closet to him at that moment. after so many years, im at last seeing another side of my father. and in so doing, im delighted with my new friend. my dad in his new home in arizona is back to mc from where he was.56.why did the author feel bitter about her father as a young adult? a. he was silent most of the time b. he was too proud of himselfc. he did not love his children d. he expected too much of her57.when the author went out with her father on weekends, she would feel . a. nervous b. sorry c. tired d. safe58.what does the author think of her father after her visit to tucson? a. more critical b. more talkative c. gentle and friendly d. strict and hard-working59.the underlined words“my new friend”in the last paragraph refer to . a. the authors son b. the authors father c. the friend of the authors father d. the cafe ownerbwhen europeans first came to africa, they were surprised to find that many african men had more than one wife. because of this practice, many people thought that african men treated african women like slaves. but these first impressions(印象) proved to be false. until about 50 years ago, most african women had more freedom and independence than women in western nations did. in some places of africa, women have owned most business and been the chief traders for many years. in europe, however, there were many places where women were not even allowed to own property(财产).how about african marriages？when there is more than one wife, each woman depends on her husband less. in a traditional african home, each woman lives in her own hut and runs her own household. that kind of living arrangement(安排) gives the woman more independence. each of the wives in an african marriage owns her own property and raises her own children. but some tasks, like cooking and babysitting, are shared with the other wives. sharing these chores(琐事) makes life easier for african women.60. what does the writer want to tell us? a. a story. b. african men. c. the history of africa. d. african marriage.61. many europeans thought that african men treated african women like slaves _ . a. because they were blacks b. when they saw african marriage situations c. because of their heavy housework d. when they found there were more women than men62. since there is more than on wife, each woman _ . a. doesnt do any housework any longer b. depends on her husband less c. depends on her own husband at any time d. doesnt depend on her husband at allchuman demands on natural resources have doubled in less than 50 years and are now outstripping(超过) what the earth can provide by more than half, a new report has warned. if this situation continues, globablly it will need the capacity of two earths by 2030, the living planet report said. and the report, from the world wide fund for nature, the zoological society of london and the global footprint network, said british people are still consuming（消费、消耗） far more than the earth can offer.wildlife in tropical countries is also under huge pressure, with populations of species falling by 60 percent in three decades. the studys authors looked at 8,000 populations of 2,500 species and studied the change in land use and water consumption across the globe. warned that if everyone are now living lifestyles which would require one and a half planets to support their lives, though there are signiflcant differences between rich and poor nations.the uk comes 31st in a list of countries based on their “ecological footprint” the amount of land and sea each person needs to provide the food, clothes and other products they consume and to absorb the carbon dioxide they give off. the country has fallen down the league table from having the 15th biggest footprint in the last report two years ago, but the world wide fund for nature points out this is due to an increase in other countries impact rather than a reduction in the uks use of resources. ireland has the 10th highest ecological footprint in the world, while the united arab emirates, qatar, denmark, belgium and the usa are the five worst countries for over-consumption of resources.it also carried a warning about the loss of wildlife and ecosystems which people depend on for food, fuel, clean water and other resources with populations of species declining by 30 percent worldwide between 1970 and 2007.63in this text the author wants to tell us .ahumans are overusing the planetbe need two earths to live on by 2030cdifferences between rich and poor nationsdwildlife on earth is under huge pressure64according to the text, what has happened worldwide in the last three decades and seven years? apopulations of species have fallen by 60 percent.bhuman demands on natural resources have doubled.cpopulations of species have declined by 30 percent.dour lifestyles have used up 1.5 planets resources.65from the third paragraph we know .athe uks sudation is no better than that of irelandbthe uk is now in its 15th position in the league tablecthe uk has reduced its consumption of natural resourcesdother countries are increasing their consumption of natural resoures第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）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面，选项中有两项为多余选项。so it is exam time once again! everyone, whether a kid or an adult, has at least a little bit of pressure of exams, and it is just that some show it while others do not. so the most important tip is to relax and not take too much stress. 66 here are some study tips for high school students as well as study tips for college students. 67 the most common mistake that students make is that they start studying a day or two before exams! no portion can be covered, not even halfway, if you study only two days before exams. so what most of the students do, is study only the so-called important points. as a result, even if the paper is easy, you get a low score only because you didnt know the entire contents! 68 if time does not perait you to learn your lessons, at least go through them regularly. this way you will be familiar with the syllabus and wont find it difficult to understand then at the last minute.there are some easy techniques to study well, like read the lesson casually, at least twice. and while reading, mark the important points with a pencil and move on. 69 before going to exams, read only the underlined points. this is one of the last minute study tips for exams.relaxation techniquesdont study continuously instead of taking some breaks. just go for minimum 5 minutes to maximum 8 minutes breaks needed an hour in your studies. 70 during an exam, use the few minutes before you are allowed to begin to do some simple relaxation and breathingexercises, sit back and separate yourself mentally from those who are getting anxious.astudy beforehandbprepare a good timetablecso start studying at least a month before the exams.dit will make your mind fresh and active, then you will find interest in studying.erevising for exams is about more than just reading through the notes you made in class.fbut a little bit of pressure is always necessary, as it is good for us and helps us perform well.gwhen you start reading for the second time, read those underlined points first and then the rest of the text.第四部分：写作（共三节，满分45分）第一节：单词拼写，根据汉语提示写出该单词的正确形式。 71、todays festival have many origins ，some （宗教上的）， some seasonal ，and some for special people or event。 72 、people are grateful b
