Only geniuses (天才) can become writers,” the English teacher said sarcastically. “And you are getting a D this term.” I was hurt deeply and I cried sadly.That night I wrote a short, sad poem about 18 dreams and mailed it to the Cappers Weekly newspaper.

Thank you.” I mailed it without an envelope.A month later, I received a letter, and a request to start working on 27 book. Crying Wind became a bestseller, and was translated into 15 languages.

(library attendance)（%）Diagram (3): Different programs people like.31. People aged spend the most time surfing the Internet every week. A. 716 B. 1730 C. 3155 D. over 5632. How many people go to the library on Saturdays?A. About 20%.B. About 40%.C. Over 60%. D. More than 80%.33. The three diagrams show us the results of a survey about .A. what people do every dayB. peoples different habitsC. peoples different lifestyles D. how people spend their free time BFor a long time being happy was considered something that just happened, and there was nothing special about it. Now we know that getting along with other people is something that we can work at. It is possible to act in such a way that other people will like us better. One way is being unselfish, not wanting everything from our friends. Another way is to look for good points, not bad points in other people. It is surprising how successful this treasure hunt can be.You do not have to be spineless (优柔寡断的) in order to be popular. In fact, you will be liked or loved if you are not afraid to stand up for your rights. But do it politely and pleasantly. Being friendly and polite to your group, to other people and to strangers and especially to those who do not look important or do not interest you is one way to develop a good character.You cannot expect to be perfect, and you must learn not to be unhappy when you make mistakes. Everyone makes mistakes, and no one is to be blamed if he does not refuse to learn from them. Many young people become discouraged when they know in themselves qualities that they do not likeselfishness, laziness, and other unpleasant qualities. Just remember that we all have some of these faults and have to fight against them.At the same time, it is important to remember that while you are probably no worse than others, the best way to be happy is to think yourself above other people. When something is wrong, it is good sense to try to make it right. Perhaps you do not like a teacher or a classmate. Try to see why, and look at yourself, too, to be sure that you are not doing anything to make that person dislike you. Some day, things may turn out all right when you have to learn to get along the best with the situation, without thinking too much about it. Worrying never helps in a situation, you cannot change.34.One of the two ways the writer suggests for us to get along with others is to _.A. work hard at everything we do B. enjoy the best share of everythingC. look for treasure in order to be successfulD. pay more attention to their strong points35.If a person wants to be popular, he or she has to _.A. be polite and friendly B. give up some rights C. get away arguing with other peopleD. be ready to change his or her character36.There is no person but someone should be blamed if he or she _.A. is modest and generous B. does not draw a lesson from his or her own mistake C. is selfish and lazy D. is very happy with unpleasant quality37. The purpose for the writer to write the passage is to _.A. train you to be perfect B. show you the way to be happyC. tell you how to act when you dislike a personD. teach you how to be popular among your friendsCTwo good friends, Sam and Jason, met with a car accident on their way home one snowy night. The next morning, Sam woke up blind. His legs were broken. The doctor, Mr Lee, was standing by his bed, looking at him worriedly. When he saw Sam awake, he asked, “How are you feeling, Sam?” Sam smiled and said, “Not bad, Doctor. Thank you very much for doing the special operation.” Mr Lee was moved by Sam. When he was leaving, Sam said, “Please dont tell Jason about it.” “WellWellOK,” Mr Lee replied. Months later when Jasons wounds healed(愈合), Sam was still very sick. He couldnt see or walk. He could do nothing but stay in his wheelchair all day long. At first, Jason stayed with him for a few days. But days later, Jason thought it boring to spend time with a disabled man like Sam. So he went to see Sam less and less. He made new friends. From then on, he didnt go to visit Sam any more. Sam didnt have any family or friends except Jason. He felt very sad. Things went from bad to worse. Sam died a year later. When Jason came, Mr Lee gave him a letter from Sam. In the letter Sam said, “Dear Jason, I am disabled. But I want you to be a healthy man. So I gave my eyes to you so that you can enjoy life as a healthy man. Now you have new friends. Im glad to see that you are as healthy and happy as usual. Im glad you live a happy life. You are always my best friend. Sam”. When he finished reading the letter, Mr Lee said, “I have promised that I will keep this a secret until Sam is gone. Now you know it.” Jason stood there like a stone. Tears ran down his face.38. The car accident happened _. A. only to Sam B. on a cold evening C. the next morning D. on the way to work39.

Sam caused the car accident B. Sams operation was not successful C. Jason was made blind in the car accident D. Jason knew how Sam helped him before Sam diedDRecently the “China dream” has been the subject of a public topic. Although it is quite common for Chinese people to dream of an empowered or a prosperous China, most people also have their own dreams. Throughout Chinas thousands of years of history, these “China dreams” have always existed. Do you have a “China dream”? I brought up this topic with several young Chinese students with higher U.S. educational backgrounds. Unsurprisingly, they all had their own heartfelt hopes and dreams for their native country. Fred Wang, an MBA candidate in the U.S. said, “I dream of equal chance for the young in China. Equality means all young people can compete fairly, based on the rule-of-law no matter whether they are rich or poor.”Yujie Zhao, another MBA candidate in California said, “I dream of a happy family with an affordable home. I dream of having the best education for my children so they will not lose at the starting line, and I dream of being able to take good care of my parents after they retire.” She said, “It seems like all my dreams are about family, but it is so true for most Chinese young dreamers today.”Yiqiong Zhang, an MBA graduate from the US shared her dreams. “I have a dream which I have been holding for many years, that is after working hard for about 20 to 25 years, I can have enough money to build and manage a small bookstore or a flower shop. Besides working hard, I am able to enjoy life: to play the piano, to hike and to enjoy a two-month-long vacation every year. This may be a common dream among young Chinese students.”There is no doubt that all of these young students have their own “China dream”. They all love China, they all love chasing their dreams. Beautiful “China Dream” requires hard work. Everyone should work hard to make their dream come true. 42. Which is right about the three young Chinese students?A. They receive higher education in China. B. They have their own hopes and dreams for China. C. They receive education of all levels in America. D. They have their own hopes and dreams for America.43. What does the word “compete” in the second paragraph mean? A. 对待 B. 完成 C. 竞争 D. 成功 44. Which one is NOT Yiqiong Zhangs dream?A. Working hard for about 20 to 25 years. B. Managing a small bookstore or a flower shop.C. Playing the piano and hiking in her free time. D. Having a two-month holiday every year.45. From the passage we can learn that _.A. “China Dream” is very difficult to come true. B. “China Dream” does need everyones hard work. C. “China Dream” is a subject we need to study in China. D. “China Dream” is only a dream about the development of our country. 第卷（非选择题 共60分）第II卷共36小题，请按要求将答案写在答题卡上。四、词汇（本题共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分）A. 请根据括号中的中文提示、英文释义或句意，写出句中所缺单词，使句子通顺。46.
