over.” I wanted to go，but it was a twohour drive from Lake Arrowhead.“I will go next Tuesday，” I promised，a little unwillingly，on her third call.The next Tuesday dawned cold and rainy.Still，I had promised，and so I drove there.When I finally walked into Carolyns house and hugged and greeted my grandchildren，I said，“Forget the daffodils，Carolyn！The road is invisible (看不见的) in the cloud and fog，and there is nothing in the world except you and these children that I want to see！”My daughter smiled calmly and said，“We drive in this weather all the time，Mum.You will never forgive yourself if you miss this experience.”After about twenty minutes，we turned onto a small road and I saw a small church.On the far side of the church，I saw a handlettered sign that read “Daffodil Garden”We got out of the car and each took a childs hand，and I followed Carolyn down the path.Then，we turned a corner of the path，and I looked up and gasped.Before me lay the most beautiful sight！There were five acres of flowers！“But who has done this？” I asked Carolyn.“Its just one woman，” Carolyn answered.“Thats her home，”Carolyn pointed to a wellkept Aframe house that looked small and modest in the midst of all that glory.We walked up to the house.On the patio (平台)，we saw a poster.“Answers to the Questions I Know You Are Asking” was the headline.The first answer was a simple one.“50,000 bulbs (鳞茎)，” it read.The second answer was，“One at a time，by one woman.” The third answer was，“Began in 1958.”I thought of this woman whom I had never met，who，more than fifty years before，had begunone bulb at a timeto bring the beauty and joy to the mountain top.56The author didnt go to see the daffodils at first because_.Ashe was not interested in themBthey were growing on the mountain topCthe weather was not good enoughDit was not easy for her to drive there57What do we know about the woman living in the Aframe house?AShe must be out of mind.BShe acted as a gardener there.CIt took her great determination to grow the daffodils.DShe was poor and made her living by selling the daffodils.58What could the author probably learn from this experience?ANothing is too difficult if you put your heart into it.BWe must put the interests of others above our own.CWe can change the world by growing flowers.DIts never too late to learn.59What would be the best title for the passage?AAn Unforgettable ExperienceBBeautiful DaffodilsCOne Bulb at a TimeDI Love DaffodilsB(2012河南部分重点中学联考)“Our aim is to take our art to the world and make people understand what it is to move，” said David Belle，the cofounder of parkour (跑酷)Do you love running？It is a good exercise，yet many people find it boring.But what if making your morning jog a creative one？Like jumping from walls and over gaps and ground rolls？Just like the James Bond in the movie Casino Royale？Bond jumps down from a roof to a windowsill and then runs several blocks over obstacles on the way.It is just because of Bonds wonderful performances that the sport has become popular worldwide.Yes，thats parkour，an extreme street sport aimed at moving from one point to another as quickly as possible，getting over all the obstacles in the path using only the abilities of the human body.Parkour is considered an extreme sport.As its participants dash around a city，they may jump over fences，run up walls and even move from rooftop to rooftop.Parkour can be just as exciting and charming as it sounds，but its participants see parkour much more than that.Overcoming all the obstacles on the course and in life is part of the philosophy (哲理) behind parkour.This is the same as life.You must determine your destination，go straight，and jump over all the barriers as if in parkour and never fall back from them in your life，to reach the destination successfully.A parkour lover said，“I love parkour because its philosophy has become my life，my way to do everything.”Another philosophy weve learnt from parkour is freedom.It can be done by anyone，at any time，anywhere in the world.It is a kind of expression of trust in yourself that you earn energy and confidence.60Parkour has become popular throughout the world because of_.Aits cofounder，David Belle Bthe film，Casino RoyaleCits risks and tricks Dthe varieties of participants61The underlined word “obstacles” in Paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to “_”AstreetsBobjectsCbarriersDroofs62Which of the following is true of parkour?AIt challenges human abilities.BIt is a good but boring sport.CIt needs special training.DIt is a team sport.63Which of the following is the philosophy of parkour?ASports and extremes. BExcitement and popularity.CDreams and success. DDetermination and freedom.C(2012太原市部分重点中学联考)You are busy filling out the application form for a position you really need；lets assume you once actually completed a couple of years of college work or even that you completed your degree.Isnt it tempting to lie just a little，to claim on the form that your diploma (毕业文凭) represents a Harvard degree？Or that you finished an extra couple of years back at State University?More and more people are turning to an utter deception (欺骗) like this to land their first job or to move ahead in their careers.For personnel officers，like most Americans，value degrees from famous schools.A job applicant may have a good education anyway，but he or she assumes that chances of being hired are better with a diploma from a wellknown university.Registrars (注册主任) at most wellknown colleges say that they deal with dishonest claims like these at the rate of about one per week.Personnel officers do check up on degrees listed on application forms.If it turns out that an applicant is lying，most colleges are unwilling to accuse the applicant directly.One Ivy League school refers to them as “special cases”One wellknown West Coast school，in perhaps the most delicate phrase of all，says these claims are made by “no such people”To avoid complete lies，some job seekers claim that they “attended” or “were associated with” a college or university.After careful checking，a personnel officer may discover that “attending” means being dismissed after one semester.It may be that “being associated with” a college means that the jobseeker visited his younger brother for a football weekend.One school that keeps records of false claims says that the practice dates back at least to the turn of the centurythats when they began keeping records，anyhow.If you dont want to lie or even stretch the truth，there are companies that will sell you a fake diploma.One company，with offices in New York and on the West Coast，will put your name on a diploma from any number of nonexistent colleges.The price begins at around twenty dollars for a diploma from “Smoot State University”The prices increase rapidly for a degree from the “University of Purdue”As there is no Smoot State and the real school in Indiana is properly called Purdue University，the prices seem rather high for one sheet of paper.64The writer mainly wants to tell us that_.Acollege degrees can now be purchased easilyBnowadays it is very hard for people to find jobsClying about college degrees is becoming a widespread problemDemployers are no longer interested in applicants actual performances65The underlined word “utter” in the second paragraph means_.AthoroughBcarefulCincompleteDspoken66Once finding applicants with false diplomas，most colleges would_.Akeep the records of themBdrive them out of collegeCavoid direct conflicts with themDaccuse them of such behavior67We can learn from the passage that_.AUS employers value their job applicants with a degree from top universitiesBUniversity of Purdue and Purdue University are the same schoolCpeople with fake diplomas can get their first jobs in the US easilyDpeople pay the same price for a fake diploma from different universitiesD(2012湖北省部分重点中学联考)One day，a young man was cleaning out his late grandfathers belongings when he came across a bright red envelope.Written on the front were the words，“To my grandson.” Recognizing his grandfathers handwriting，the young man opened the envelope.A letter inside read：Dear Ronny，Years ago you came to me for help.You said，“Grandpa，how is it that youve accomplished so much in your life？Youre still full of energy，and Im already tired of struggling.How can I get the same enthusiasm that youve got？”I didnt know what to say to you then.But_knowing_my_days_are_numbered，I figure that I owe you an answer.So here is what I believe.I think a lot of it has to do with how a person looks at things.I call it “keeping your eyes wide open”First，realize that life is filled with surprises，but many are good ones.If you dont keep watching for them，youll miss half the excitement.Expect to be thrilled once in a while，and you will be.When you meet up with challenges，welcome them.Theyll leave you wiser，stronger，and more capable than you were the day before.When you make a mistake，be grateful for the things it taught you.Resolve to use that lesson to help you reach your goals.And always follow the rules.Even the little ones.When you follow the rules，life works.If you think you ever really get by with breaking the rules，youre only fooling yourself.Its also important to decide exactly what you want.Then keep your mind focused on it，and be prepared to receive it.But be ready to end up in some new places too.As you grow with the years，youll be given bigger shoes to fill.So be ready for endings as well as challenging beginnings.Sometimes we have to be brave enough to move from the familiar to the unfamiliar.Life isnt just reaching peaks.Part of it is moving from one peak to the next.If you rest too long in between，you might be tempted to quit.Leave the past in the past.Climb the next mountain and enjoy the view.Dump things that weigh you down emotionally and spiritually.When an old resentment，belief，or an attitude becomes heavy，lighten your load.Shed tho
