His name is Sandy Greenberg. In his youth, Sandy was a very good student, but he came from a poor family. And so he went to Columbia University on a scholarship and there he met his roommate who also was receiving financial aid.Now while he was a sophomore（大学二年级学生）at Columbia University, Sandy contracted an eye disease that eventually proved to be glaucoma. But the trouble was, it wasnt detected（检查）early enough, and as a result he became legally blind. I ask you all to imagine for a moment having been sighted all your life and then all of a sudden being faced, in a very competitive school, with losing so much sight you could no longer read. This is what happened to Sandy Greenberg.But something else happened to Sandy that may surprise you. Sandy said that when he lost his sight, his roommate would read his textbooks to hem, every night.So Im going to put you in that position, in a competitive school like Columbia, or John Hopkins. If your roommate had a serious disability, would you take the time to read textbooks to him every night, knowing the more you spend time reading textbooks to your roommate, perhaps the less well you might do with your other activities? Thats not as easy a question as it first appears.But luckily for Sandy, his roommate did. And as a result, Sandy went on to graduate with honors. He got a Fulbright Scholarship, and he went off to study at Oxford. He was still quite poor, but he said he had managed to save about five hundred dollars as he went along.His roommate, meanwhile, also went on to graduate school. One day, Sandy got a call from him at Oxford. And his former roommate said, “Sandy Im really unhappy. I really dont like being in graduate school, and I dont want to do this.”36. What is glaucoma?A. A problem in study.B. A trouble in money.C. An eye disease.D. A mental disease.37. What does the underlined word “did” in Paragraph 5 refer to?A. graduated successfullyB. went on to Oxford on a scholarshipC. got a scholarshipD. kept on reading textbooks for Sandy38. Which of the following word can be used to describe Sandys roommate?A. Optimistic.B. Annoying.C. Lovely.D. Kind.39. We can learn from this text that _.A. Sandy still kept in touch with his former roommateB. Sandy went on to graduate school in Columbia UniversityC. Sandy got his treatment without delayD. Sandys former roommate lived a happy lifeBMuch meaning can be conveyed clearly with our eyes, so it is often said that eyes can speak.Do you have such kind of experience? In a bus you may look at a stranger, but not too long. And if he is sensing that he is being stared at, he may feel uncomfortable. Its the same in daily life. If you are looked at for more than necessary, you will look at yourself up and down, to see if there is anything wrong with you. If nothing goes wrong, you will feel angry toward others stare at you that way. Eyes do speak, right?Looking too long at someone may seem to be rude and aggressive. But things are different when it comes to stare at the opposite sex. If a man glances at a woman for more than 10 seconds and refuses to turn away his gaze, his intentions are obvious, that is, he wishes to attract her attention, to make her understand that he is admiring her.However, the normal eye contact for two people engaged in conversation is that the speaker will only look at the listener from time to time , in order to make sure that the listener does pay attention to is speaking, to tell him that he is attractive.If a speaker looks at you continuously when speaking, as if he tries to dominate（支配）you, you will feel embarrassed. A pool liar（说谎者）usually exposes himself by looking too long at the victim, since he believes in the false idea that to look straight in the eye is a sign of honest communication. Quite the contrary.In fact, continuous eye contact is confined（局限于）to lovers only, who will enjoy looking at each other tenderly for a long time, to show affection that words cannot express. Evidently, eye contact should be done according to the relationship between two people and the specific situation.40. What does the second paragraph suggest?A. Looking at a stranger continuously is necessary.B. Looking at a stranger continuously is not polite.C. Something happens in our eyes.D. Stranger should avoid eye contact.41. The underlined word “gaze” in the third paragraph probably means _.A. attractionB. attentionC. headD. eyes42. Continuous eye contact is proper between _.A. loversB. strangersC. victimsD. liars43. What would be discussed in the following?A. The importance of eye contact.B. Eye contact should be continuous.C. Enjoying yourself in conversation.D. Eye contact in related occasions.CWhats in a name? Well, obviously, our general happiness psychologists say that what we are called has a direct connection with our happiness.Those called Judy and Joshua are the happiest, while Lynn or Ben is likely to be the unhappiest, according to research. Psychologist Dr. David Holmes found that this can cause the association that others make with the name. Hearing the name Judy may make them think of actress Judi Dench or TV presenter Judy Finnigan, and people who are considered good-natured and happy. On the other hand, people think Paulines are unhappy because of the character Pauline Flower from the TV program East Enders. The research claimed that this association influences the person with the name and so their personality is shaped to fit it. Dr. David Holmes said, “This also has some relation with the original meaning of the name. For example, the original meaning of Judy is praised.”Certain names also work well in certain aspects of life. In the workplace Richard and Judy are the happiest, while those called Ruth and Carly are the happiest in relationships. At the other end of the scale the unhappiest workers are Stuart and Liz, with the unhappiest in relationships being Frank and Harriet.Dr. Holmes said, “The relation we have with certain names, particularly important namesakes（同名者）, also shapes how we see ourselves and so may have an effect on our confidence. Names are like product brands in having a powerful effect on attitudes and should therefore be chosen with care.”“Other names are connected with being brave, outgoing or serious. Therefore, many famous people change their names to ones which reflect these characteristics. This, in turn, influences parents when they choose names for their babies,” said Dr. Holmes, “while names connected with ordinary people are rarely chosen for their babies.”44. Whats the main idea of this passage?A. Choosing a good name for babies.B. Having a name connected with famous people.C. The relationship between names and happiness.D. The relationship between names and jobs.45. According to the passage, which of the following names are better?A. Ruth and Joshua.B. Pauline and Frank.C. Richard and Stuart.D. Joshua and Ben.46. What can we learn from a persons name?A. Confidence.B. Income.C. Status.D. Personality.47. How does the author mainly develop the passage?A. By analyzing East Enders.B. By telling the history of names.C. By presenting examples.D. By comparing names with brands.DMy son Joey was born with club feet. The doctors told us that with treatment he would be able to walk normally, but would never run very well. The first threes years of his life were spent in surgery, casts and braces. By the time he was eight, you wouldnt know he had a problem when you saw him walk. The children in our neighborhood ran around as most children do during play, and Joey would jump right in and run and play, too. We never told him that he probably wouldnt be able to run as well as the other children. So he didnt know.In seventh grade he decided to go out for the cross-country team. Every day he trained with the team. He worked harder and ran more than any of the others, perhaps he sensed that the abilities that seemed to come naturally to so many others did not come naturally to him. Although the entire team runs, only the top seven runners have the chance to score points for the school. We didnt tell him he probably would never make the team, so he didnt know.He continued to run four to five miles a day, every day even the day he had a 103-degree fever. I was worried, so I went to look for him after school. I found him running all alone. I asked him how he felt. “Okay,” he said. He had two more miles to go. The sweat ran down his face and his eyes were glassy from his fever. Yet he looked straight ahead and kept running. We never told him he couldnt run four miles with a 103-degree fever. So he didnt know.Two weeks later, the names of team runners were called. Joey was number six on the list. Joey had made the team. He was in seventh grade the other six team members were all eighth-graders. We never told him he shouldnt expect to make the team. We never told him he couldnt do it. We never told him he couldnt do it so he didnt know. He just did it.48. It was _ years before Joey was totally recovered from appearance.A. 3B. 5C. 7D. 849. Joeys parents never told him the problem with his feet because _.A. Joey couldnt face the fact that he was disabledB. Joeys parents considered it may be better for his growthC. Joeys parents were afraid of being laughed atD. Joey would choose not to see the doctors50. What is the proper title of the passage?A. Club FeetB. Keep RunningC. We Never Told HimD. Dont give up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项。选项中有两项为多余选项。What does success mean to you?Success. 51 We might have a picture of what it looks like: lots of money, a comfortable lifestyle, a great relationship and achieving great success in life.The problem is that none of these things is easy or even possible to achieve. How much money is “lots”? What does a “great” relationship mean? If you have unclear definitions of success, youre never going to be satisfied.Its up to you to decide what success means in your life. 52 For you, success could be: never having to worry about money, being healthy and fit, playing an important role in your family, writing a book and having it published, or almost anything! 53 When you think about your success, make it as concrete（具体的）as possible. If you simply want to “be rich”, then youll struggle to ever feel like youve managed it. A better goal might be “make $100,000 a year”. 54 You might not be able to put a number to it, but look for some ways to record your progress towards your goal. For example, if “success” means “being happy and happy with my life”, then you might write down your thoughts regularly in your diary.You might know this saying: “I have not failed. Ive just found 10,000 ways that wont work.” If youre starting your first business, you might fail. Thats nothing to be ashamed of. 55 When you were a child, you failed many times while learning to walk, to talk, to read and to write. But those failures were necessary in order to finally succeed. Sure, you might fail again and again before you succeed, but isnt that better than never even trying?A. Thats what we should obtain.B. Success doesnt have to be about money.C. Dont follow someone elses example.D. Thats something that most of us want in our lives.E. How do you achieve success?F. Failure is the mother of success.G. Your success should be measurable.第II卷注意：将答案写在答题卡上。写在本试卷上无效。第三部份写作（共两节，满分35分）第一节 短文改错（共10小题，每小题1分，满分10分）假定英语课上老师要求同桌之间交换修改作文，请你修改你同桌写的以下作文一。文中共有10处语言错误，每句中最多有两处。每处错误仅涉及一个单词的增加、删除或修改。增加：在缺词处加处加一个漏字符（），并在其下面写出该加的词。删除：把多余的词用斜线（）划掉。修改：在错的词上划一横线，并在该词下面写出修改后的词。注意：1. 每处错误及其修改均仅限一词； 2. 只允许修改10处，多者（从第11处起）不计分。Once I waited for the bus at the stop for 30 minute, no bus came.
