As I grew up, this sightless eye in so many ways 19 me.I walked with my face looking at the 20 so people would not see the ugly me. Sometimes people, even strangers, made 21 remarks. I grew up 22 that everyone looked at me with disdain (鄙视), 23 my appearance were my fault. I always felt like I was a freak (怪物). 24 Mama would say to me, “Hold your head up high and 25 the world.” She had 26 when I was young. She would hold me in her arms and say, “If you hold your 27 up high, it will be okay, and people will see your beautiful soul.” She continued this 28 when-ever I wanted to hide.Those words have meant 29 things to me over the years. As a little child, I thought Mama meant, be careful or youll 30 or run into something because you are not 31 . As an adolescent (青少年), even though I looked down to hide my 32 , I found that sometimes when I held my head up high and let people know me, they 33 me.

Time management is not necessarily working harder, but rather smarter. A lot of our time management has to do more with what we are not doing rather than what we are doing. Sometimes our mistakes will keep us from running at a full pace. Here are some time management mistakes we should all avoid to help us increase our daily efficiency:1. Start your day without a plan of action. Without a plan, you will have workedhard but may not have done enough right things. Time management is not doing the wrong things more rapidly. That just gets us nowhere faster. Time management is doing the right things. 2. Work with a messy (凌乱不堪) desk or work area. Studies have shown that the person who works with a messy desk spends, on average, one and a half hours per day in looking for things. Thats seven and a half hours per week. If you have ever visited the office of a top manager, you can easily find that he or she is working with a clean desk environment.3. Dont take a lunch break. Many people do not take a lunch break. They work through that time period in the hope that it will give them more time to finish the task. Studies have shown that it may work just the opposite. After doing what we do for several hours, our mind will become dull. A lunch break, even a fifteen-minute break, gives us a chance to get our batteries all charged up again. 36. According to the author, time management is about _.A. how to work harderB. how to work smarterC. observing what we doD. how to reduce our daily results37. With a plan of action, you can _.A. work harderB. do the wrong things more rapidlyC. avoid doing wrong thingsD. get nowhere faster38. Working with a messy desk or work area, you will _.A. waste a lot of timeB. find the things you need easilyC. save seven and a half hours per weekD. become a top manager39. The text mainly tells us _.A. some time management mistakesB. we should get our batteries all charged upC. how important time management isD. how to avoid wasting timeB Dear God, This is Charles. Im twelve. Im typing this letter. Sometimes its hard for me to write. Its called dysgraphia. I also have learning disabilities, but my IQ was tested at 140.I could never hold a pencil in the right way. My brain doesnt sense what my hand is doing. I can feel the pencil, but the message doesnt get through right. I have to hold the pencil tighter so that my brain knows I have it in my hand.Its much easier for me to explain things by talking than writing. There are so many things I can picture in my mind, but my hands just cant draw it the way I see it.Its OK. Im not complaining. Im really doing fine. You see, you gave me a wonderful mind and a great sense of humor. Im great at figuring things out, and I love to debate. We have some great discussions in class, and thats where I really shine.I want to be a lawyer when I grow up. I know Id be good at it. You have told me that you made me special. You make me believe that you will see me through, and that you have plans for me to give me a future and hope.My parents want to help me, so they buy me a laptop. My teacher is the best this year!

He grew up on a farm. His family members found young Norman was interested in plants. He often asked why some plants grew better in different areas of the farm. Normans family encouraged him to continue his studies at the time when many farm boys left school to find a job. Borlaug attended the University of Minnesota. During the Depression, he witnessed (目击) people going hungry in the central United States. This deeply influenced his interest in agricultural science. In 1944, Borlaug began a project to increase Mexicos wheat production. The farming conditions he found in Mexico were extremely bad. The soil was not good for growing crops, and disease was destroying the plants. Over the next twenty years, Borlaug worked with Mexican scientists to develop crops that were able to resist (抵抗) disease. They also developed plants that produced higher quantities of grain. Borlaug worked with wheat genes to shrink (缩小) the plant while keeping the grain large. Using the same amount of land, the new strain of wheat could produce three to four times as much food. This method would become the major part of the Green Revolution. By 1956, the country produced enough wheat to feed its population. Working with researchers around the world, Borlaug began to apply his methods in other areas. The first stop was Asia. He and his team had great success in Pakistan and India. Local farmers could grow four times more wheat than before. In 1970, Borlaug won the Nobel Peace Prize for his efforts toward world peace through increasing food supply. 44.

Borlaug won the Nobel Peace Prize because he _.A. succeeded in increasing food supplyB. called on many countries to stop warsC. helped to control population growthD. did charity work all around the worldD As children grow, so does their desire to become independent. As parents, we need to recognize this desire, and encourage it in the right way. When our children grow up and become more independent, we will see many changes in them. Their self-confidence will increase as they are now able to do things that were once beyond their ability. Often they will become more willing to take risks and try new things. Our job is to find the right balance between childrens desire for independence and the need to keep our kids safe.Kids need to be allowed, in fact encouraged, to take some risks. The goal for parents is to determine how much risk is appropriate (适当的). The right risk level for your child will depend on their age, developmental level, and character. It will change over time, and there are few fast rules that can be used for every child.It is impossible for any of us to live completely risk-free. So what should parents do? We must encourage them to explore their world, while setting clear limits where safety is an issue; we should let them make their own choices, while pointing out the consequences (后果) that may arise from those choices; we cannot take their steps for them. We can only point out the path.Its hard to imagine when they are small. But someday they will be walking, riding a bike, and even driving! However, if we are overprotective, they are likely to grow up ill-prepared to meet the challenges they must face.48. According to the author, what should parents do when their children want to take risks?A. Encourage them to try bravely. B. Give as much advice as they need.C. Persuade their children to give up.D. Judge how much risk is appropriate.49. According to the author, children are willing to take risks because _.A. they are not satisfied with their livesB. they think they can become a heroC. they become more confident in themselvesD. they want to do something against their parents50. In the third paragraph, the author suggests that parents should _.A. ask children to set clear limits B. allow children to choose their risksC. accept the consequences of the riskD. prepare children well for life challenges51. The main purpose of the text is to tell parents to _.A. make friends with their childrenB. build up their childrens confidenceC. protect their children from any dangerD. encourage their children to be independentE Accepting and understanding other cultures is something that everyone needs to learn. Think of the world as a giant pizza. Without all the different vegetables, cheeses and meats, all you get is a tasteless pizza crust (面包皮). But when you put them all together, you get something very interesting, tasty, and good. So lets break down the walls between cultures.One way to help break down the walls between us is to understand that many of our ancestors may come from the same place. Do you know what cultures you are from? Are you part Irish or mostly German? Did your grandparents or great-grandparents immigrate (移民) to your country? There is really no way to be completely sure where your first ancestors came from, but some scientists think that all people came from Africa. So how did they get all over the world? Well, back then there was a land bridge connecting Asia and North America, so they walked to Asia, Europe, and the Americas! Over time, the land bridge split up, and there was no way for people like Columbus to know that the Americas existed. Isnt it cool thinking that maybe were all from the same continent? Even though we all came from the same place, now there are differences in the way we look depending on where our recent ancestors came from and who our parents are. If you find out where your parents and grandparents came from, you just might discover that you are from the same culture that you might be trying to avoid!52. The author tries to prove that _.A. we should respect people from other culturesB. all the continents were connected a long time agoC. Columbus found the new continentD. the land bridge did exist53. The author takes a pizza for example in order to show that _.A. we need different materials to make a pizza B. the differences of cultures make our world beautifulC. people from different cultures all like eating pizza D. a pizza will be tasteless without vegetables54. The underlined phrase “split up” in the last paragraph is the closest in meaning to _.A. cut into piecesB. separatedC. roseD. came into being55. What does the text mainly talk about？A. How to make a pizza.B. How to break down the walls between us.C. How to understand and accept other cultures.D. Where our ancestors came from.四、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)短文中共有10处错误，错误涉及一个单词的增加、删除或修改。增加：在缺词处加一个漏词符号()，并在此符号下面写出该加的词。删除：把多余的词用斜线( )划掉。修改：在错的词下划一横线，并在该词的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。Li Hua went on a tour of Australia on last summer.
