36 gave out under me. but at the last moment i 37 with great strength and walked with my friends. this was what i had experienced 12 years before when i was climbing mt huangshan，and this 38 cheered me up. compared to the climbing of the huangshan mountain, going up the wansheng mountain（万圣山） seemed much 39 . the only 40 was the snow. on the 27th of january 2008, i went out alone, climbing the wansheng mountain. on my way i saw children playing 41 on the road, making snowmen or driving toy wooden trucks on the snow. soon i 42 myself at the foot of the mountain. looking up at the snow-covered giant mountain and seeing the steep slippery(滑) road with thick ice and snow, i suddenly felt a little 43 , but the 44 of the footprints in the snow made me feel 45 that this was a safe access to the top of the mountain. about 40 minutes later, i reached the edge of the forest on the mountain. stamping on the road, i could feel the 46 of ice and snow. in some places, there were snow drifts and piles of ice, which were pushed aside to let people go more easily. seeing the white-covered pine trees, i couldnt help entering the 47 . in spite of the heavy 48 , many trees were still standing straight, but some were bent down with snow and ice, some even 49 . walking on the path in the forest, i could see no more 50 . suddenly i realized that it was 51 to walk in such dirty weather. in my childhood, i had witnessed thousands of trees, big or small, falling down one after another in a flash. fearing that the 52 of dominoes(多米诺) might happen, i hurried 53 . now im sitting beside a warm stove, writing about my trip while my memory is still 54 . i regard this to be one of the most exciting moments, one that ill 55 forever in my life. 36. a. fingers b. legs c. hands d.

grade. my parents got new jobs and higher income, so they decided it was time to move from woodbridge to a better, more educational town.in the us, it is unnecessary to take a test to get into a “good” middle or high school. you just attend the school close to where you live. so, many parents will think about the quality of the local school when they decide to buy a new house. my parents did the same. we finally chose edison mainly because of the high quality of its school.in new jersey, an area with a good school usually means a concentration of asian people. there are about 300 students in our school. 55% are asians and just under half of that are chinese. there are so many chinese people nearby that we even have our own chinese school.edison is an old town, just like thousands of others in the united states. however, i have treated it as my hometown. thats where i spend much of my youth, and the memories there cant be moved anywhere else.56. why did the writers parents move to edison? a. because they were born there.b. because it was a better educational town.c. because the writer began his fifth grade.d. because the writer didnt need to take a test.57. how many students are from asia in the writers school?a. about 80.b. about 160.c. about 220.d. about 300.58. what does the underlined expression “a concentration of” mean in paragraph 3?a. none of.b. the whole ofc. a large number of d. a small number of59. why cant the writer forget edison?a. because he regards it as his hometown.b. because his parents got new jobs there.c. because there are many asians there.d. because it is in the state of new jersey.btelevision in the united states is free. to pay for programs, there are many advertisements. often these advertisements are short plays with actors. the following television advertisement is like many others that americans see daily.we see a man and his wife at the breakfast table. they have been married for a long time. they are not speaking to each other. they havent spoken to each other at the breakfast table for years. the husband is reading his newspaper. we cant see his face. the wife looks very bored as she pours a cup of coffee for him. today, she is using a new kind of coffee for the first time. the husband picks up his cup. he isnt very interested. he tastes his coffee. suddenly he puts down his newspaper. something is different. can it be the coffee? he takes another taste. its wonderful. he smiles. he looks at his wife and says in amazement, “doris, when did you cut your hair?” doris is pleased. she answers, “two months ago.” doris asks, “herbie, when did your hair begin to turn grey?” he replies, “a long time ago.” doris says, “oh, very handsome.” now they arent bored anymore. breakfast is different. having a new kind of coffee changed their lives.60. in the tv story, doris looks bored because _.a. she doesnt like the breakfast that morningb. she has been married to herbie for a long timec. herbie doesnt care much for herd. herbie isnt interested in the breakfast she cooks61. the tv story wants to tell the viewers _.a. to have an immediate try at the new coffeeb. to have a good laugh at the good couplec. that a nice breakfast must go with nice coffeed. that advertisements can certainly increase goods production62. what does the author mean by saying the last sentence?a. what kind of coffee can change peoples lives?b. how can a new kind of coffee change peoples lives?c. nice coffee can change ones life. d. a new kind of coffee costs quite a lot.63. this text is mainly about _ .a. who pays for tv programs in the united statesb. what a tv advertisement is usually like in the usac. why long-married couples dislike speaking to each otherd. what made herbie and doris not bored any morec if women are mercilessly（无情地）exploited (剥削) year after year, they have only themselves to blame, because they are frightened at the thought of being seen in public in clothes that are out of fashion. they are always taken advantage of by the designers and the big stores. clothes which have been worn only a few times have to be put aside because of the change of fashion. when you come to think of it, only a woman is capable of standing in front of a wardrobe(衣柜) packed full of clothes and announcing sadly that she has nothing to wear. changing fashions are nothing more than the intentional creation of waste. many women spend vast sums of money each year to replace clothes that have hardly been worn. women who cannot afford to throw away clothing in this way, waste hours of their time changing the dresses they have. skirts are lengthened or shortened; necklines are lowered or raised, and so on. no one can say that the fashion industry contributes anything really important to society. fashion designers are seldom concerned with primary things like warmth, comfort and durability (耐用). theyre only interested in outward appearance and they take advantage of the fact that women will put up with any amount of discomfort, as long as they look right. there can hardly be a man who hasnt sometime in his life smiled at the sight of a woman shaking in a thin dress on a winter day, or picking her way through deep snow in high-heeled shoes. when comparing men and women in the matter of fashion, the conclusions to be drawn are obvious. do the constantly changing fashions of womens clothes, one wonders, reflect basic qualities of instability (不稳定) ? men are too clever to let themselves be cheated by fashion designers. do their unchanged styles of dress reflect basic qualities of stability and reliability? that is for you to decide.64. designers and big stores always make money _ .a. by mercilessly exploiting women workers in the clothing industryb. because they are capable of predicting new fashionsc. by constantly changing the fashions in womens clothingd. because they always improve quality of womens clothing65. the writer would be less critical (批评) if fashion designers thought more of the _ of clothing. a. costb. appearancec. comfortd. suitability66. according to the passage, which of the following statements is true? a. new fashions in clothing are created for the commercial exploitation of women.b. the constant changes in womens clothing reflect their strength of character. c. the fashion industry makes an important contribution to society. d. fashion designs should not be encouraged since they are only welcomed by women.67. by saying “the conclusions to be drawn are obvious”, the writer means that _. a. womens changeableness in their choice of clothing is often laughed at b. women are better able to put up with discomfort c. men are also exploited greatly by fashion designers d. men are more reasonable in the matter of fashiond when skateboarding（滑板运动）started in the 1960s, skateboards were made of wood and had clay wheels. since the wheels did not grip concrete (水泥地)well, riders could do very few tricks with them. soon people lost interest in the sport.in 1973, though, a new wheel was invented in california. it was made of a new type of plastic. a skateboard with these wheels moved very quickly and it also gripped the concrete well.during the next few years skateboards were further improved. the plastic was perfected, and because the boards were shaped better, riders liked them better. these skateboards gave new life to skateboarding. the streets were not safe for skateboarding, although it was easy to ride on the streets. as a result, skateboard parks sprang up(涌现). the first parks appeared in california and florida. at first there were only outdoor parks that had concrete slopes with small curves (曲线). then more exciting parks appeared which had steep downward slopes, banked curves, and so on. today, there are both indoor and outdoor parks. in most of these parks, riders must wear helmets（头盔） as well as knee and elbow pads（护肘）. this gear can prevent a fall from causing serious injury.whenever they ride, people should always use this safety equipment, and they should learn how to fall safely. many accidents happen during the first week of riding, so it is very important that riders be taught well.68. why were the new skateboards more popular? a. they were safer than the older ones. b. the older models were expensive. c. they were stronger than the older ones. d. people could do more tricks with them.69. skateboard parks developed because _. a. parents decided it would be a good ideab. its not safe to skateboard in the streets. c. many streets did not allow skateboarding d. most city parks did not allow skateboarding70. which of the following statements about skateboard parks is true?a. at first there werent any indoor parks. b. the earlier parks had steep slopes. c. in the parks people dont have to wear helmets. d. the first parks appeared in scotland and florida.eas you move around your home, take a good look at the things you have. it is likely that your living room
