It is a book about a young Japanese-American girl, Katie Takeshima, and the difficulties that her family have to face when they are forced to move to Georgia. This book tells the story of one familys journey to a new place, their experiences of racism (种族主义), and the ability of people to move forward through hard times. In the book, Katie and Lynn Takeshima are sisters. The story begins in Iowa, where their parentssmall family-owned store runs out of business. Soon after, the Takeshimas begin to have financial difficulties and they go in search of a new living. The family moves to Georgia where they work at a hatchery (孵化厂) with their uncle. On the way to their new home in Georgia they experience racism. They have difficulty in fitting inwhen a hotel manager tells them to go to the backwhere the Indianshave to stay. Life gets even harder for the Takeshimas when they begin to work at the hatchery. Katies parents are over-worked there. They have to stay in a crowded apartment with little space. And as if that isnt enough, Katie has too much schoolwork to do. During Katies struggle, Lynn becomes sick and Katie feels unsafe, because she has always looked up to Lynn. There are hard times that Katie and her family have to experience. This story is a beautiful example of resilience (适应力) and friendship. It also opens the readers eyes to some of the struggles that Asian Americans face. 56. Why does the family have to leave Iowa? A. They are not used to the life in Iowa.B. People look down on them in Iowa.C. They want to open a hatchery in Georgia. D. They dont have enough money to live in Iowa.57.

Which of the following is TRUE, according to the passage?A. Katies parents died in the hatchery. B. Katie went on with her schooling in Georgia.C. Katies uncle owned the hatchery.D. The Takeshimas have a large house. B Most people told me that I would have to learn to be good with money during my college education but I didnt really believe them. Now I know that this is absolutely true: you have to know the wisdom of efficient money management. Food costs much more when youre paying for it by yourself. Food isnt the only thing you have to pay for you also have to pay for textbooks and other materials. If you arent careful, you can spend up to $700 per term on textbooks alone. Being able to manage your money is only half the battle; the other half is finding the money. Besides studying hard to gain a scholarship and taking loans (贷款), you also need to find a good part-time job. Depending on the school, you may be able to apply for a work-study job. These jobs could be a doorkeeper or a tutor (助教) at a writing center. In college, the summer vacation is no longer a period of rest and relaxation. Its a time of hard work so that students like me can afford the education. Paying for college is a great challenge, especially if you try to manage it alone. The best way to survive the ordeal (严酷的考验) is to make and keep as many good relationships as possible. There are people who would like to give you used textbooks, free supplies and important information. Work hard and always look for good offers and great friends and relationships. College is never something you should do alone.59. This passage is to tell us how to _.

With almost 5 million supporters and a worldwide network in over 100 countries, WWF is one of the worlds largest and most respected organizations that are devoted to protecting the environment. WWFs goal is to stop the degradation (恶化) of the Earths natural environment and build a future where people live in harmony with nature. Earth Hour started in 2007 in Sydney, Australia when 2.2 million homes and businesses turned their lights off for one hour to make their stand against climate change. Only a year later, Earth Hour became a worldwide movement with more than 50 million people across 35 countries tak-ing part in. Many famous places, such as the Sydney Har-bour Bridge, the CN Tower in Toronto, the Golden Gate Bridge in San Francisco, and Romes Colosseum, all stood in darkness. In March 2009, hundreds of millions of people took part in the third Earth Hour. Over 4,000 cities in 88 countries officially turned off the lights to give their support for the planet, making Earth Hour 2009 the worlds largest climate change movement. Earth Hour 2010 took place on Saturday, March 27th at 8:30 pm. It was reported to be the biggest Earth Hour. One hundred and twenty six countries signed up for Earth Hour 2010. The Vietnam electricity demand (需求) fell 500,000 kwh during Earth Hour 2010, which was three times larger than the first time the country joined the Earth Hour in 2009. This time, about 4,000 cities joined and many people gathered in places of interest such as Big Ben, the Empire State Building, the Sydney Opera House, the Eiffel Tower, the Brandenburg Gate, and the Forbidden City. 63.

WWF has its office in almost every country in the world D Have you ever walked to the shops, only to find when you get there that youve completely forgotten what you go for? Or have you struggled to remember the name of an old friend? For years, weve accepted that a forgetful brain is as much a part of aging as wrinkles and grey hair. But now a new book suggests weve got it all wrong. According to The Secret Life Of The Grown-up Brain, by science writer, Barbara Strauch, our brains actually get better with age. In fact, she argues many new studies have found that the brain hits its peak (最高点) between our 40s and 60s much later than previously thought. Furthermore, not losing many brain cells as we age, we preserve them, and even produce new ones well into middle age. For years its been accepted that the brain, much like the body, got worse with age. But the longest, largest study into what happens to people as they age suggests otherwise. This continuing research has followed 6,000 people since 1956, testing them every seven years. It has found that, on average, they performed better in cognitive tests in their late 40s and 50s than they had in their 20s. Specifically, older people did better in tests of vocabulary, spatial orientation (空间方向) skills, verbal memory (how many words you can remember) and problem solving. Where they were weaker was in numeracy (计算能力) (how quickly one can multiply, add, subtract and divide) and the speed at which they could move. However, with harder tasks, such as problem-solving and language, we are at our best at middle age and beyond. In short, researchers are going to come up with scientific evidence that we do get wiser with age. 67. The underlined word, it in the first paragraph refers to _.A. the older one is, the wiser one isB. our brain gets better with ageC. we get wrinkles and grey hair as we age D. our brains become forgetful as we age68. Science writer, Barbara Strauch, believes that _. A. our brains are wisest between our 40s and 60sB. we lose many brain cells as we ageC. our brains are at their worst after our 60s D. people are wiser now than years ago69. What is NOT true of this new research? A. It is the longest and largest of its kind. B. It has been running since 1956.C. The 6,000 people have been tested at least seven times so far.D. Researchers have provided supporting scientific evidence 70. According to the new research, older people _. A. are slow in verbal memory and numeracy B. have less ability to solve problemsC. behave better on tests of vocabulary than in their 20sD. produce more new brain cells than the middle-aged 第四部分 任务型阅读（共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分） 请认真阅读下列短文,并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填入一个最恰当的单词。 注意:每个空格只填1个单词。Among the 1,500 terracotta warrior (兵马俑) figures of the Terracotta Army stands a unique green-faced soldier discovered in Pit No.2 in 1999. The white part of the figures eye ball and black pupil can still be seen clearly. His face, neck and ears were painted light green, which marks him out, very different from the other pink-faced terracotta warriors. This difference led to a heated argument among archaeologists about how he came to be painted in this way. Some experts believed it was done completely by mistake, guessing that the creator must have been color blind. Some experts believed the warriors green face was meant to frighten enemies. Still others thought the green color was used to show the braveness of all the soldiers and the power of the army in battle, because the ancient Chinese believed green was a symbol of youthfulness and energy. A student from Shanghai Jiaotong University recently offered a new explanation that the green-faced terracotta warrior could have been an army sniper (狙击手). He gave three reasons. Firstly, the Shi Ji(the Book of History) records that snipers were already in use by the Qin Dynasty. The warrior was a kneeling archer(跪着的射手), in the posture of controlling a bow, which is the basic position of a sniper. Secondly, both in ancient and modern times, snipers are generally required to fight alone. The fact that this warrior was the only one of his kind to be unearthed in Pit No.2 supports this explanation. Finally, snipers traditionally use camouflage(伪装) to remain unseen, which could explain the green face. Archeologists havent solved the mystery of the painted warrior, but they continue to search for clues in the hope that they can one day solve this mystery. A Green-Faced Terracotta Warrior Main (71)_ from the other warrior figures The face, neck and ears of the figure were painted light green, while the other faces were painte
