Growing up, we were very poor, and my mother worked evenings at a factory in a small town. Not seeing my mother much, Anne looked after me and my younger sister. During those hard years, Anne was always there for me, not only as a big sister, but as a mother and my best friend.When I was seventeen and had no money, I thought my only chance of going to college was if I could win a scholarship. I had an important interview for such an award. Anne at that time was struggling, surviving on a part-time job as she put herself through the local community college after serving in the army. I told her of my interview. I asked her advice on what to wear and showed her my best outfit (装束) and how I planned to be careful how I sat so that the hole in the bottom of my shoes would not be seen, but I wasnt sure what I would do if it rained. Anne suggested that we go shopping, and we took the bus to the JCPenney store. We found a beautiful pair of leather shoes on sale. She told me to try them on, but I thought it was just for fun as neither of us had ever owned anything that expensive before. But Anne handed me the boxed shoes and said, “Here, Ill buy these for you.”“But . . .” was all I could say.“You deserve them,” she replied. “This interview is important. I want to see you get that scholarship.”I was speechless as I knew this was a lot of money for her, and she would probably have to eat nothing but noodles for at least a month.I went to the interview and crossed my legs so that my beautiful new shoes shone with pride. I won the scholarship and became an engineer. Although they were nice leather everyday shoes, I didnt wear them much because they were so special. Now, after 20 years have passed, I still have that pair of shoes with me, and I just wear them on those occasions when I need to feel special. 46. When the author was 17, Anne _.A. was serving in the army B. was continuing her studyC. was a salesgirl at the JCPenney storeD. was working in a small company47. The author went to the interview _.A. accompanied by Anne B. wearing a pair of worn shoesC. with confidence D. with great anxiety48. What would be the best title for the passage?A. An important interview B. A special pair of new shoes C. Memories of poor childhoodD. Lifelong gratitude to a friend BMetin Senturk is a Turkish pop star and chat show host, with his own weekly television program on music and celebrity gossip, and nine albums to his name. He is also blind. He founded the Istanbul-based World Handicapped Foundation and wants to stand for the Turkish National Assembly(TNA) to promote the rights of the disabled. Earlier this year, Senturk set a Guinness World Record for the fastest blind driver, reaching 181 mph in a Ferrari to raise awareness of disability.“I believe in my heart that if a disabled person believes and trusts herself or himself,” he said, “theres nothing they cant succeed at.” He lost his sight in an accident at the age of three. He was the only blind pupil in his mainstream high school and went on to study classical music at university. Only 20% of Turkeys disabled population is employed. Idil Isil Gul, a disability expert and lecturer in public international law and human rights at Istanbul Bilgi University, said: “Most disabled people stay at home and do nothing, because they cant get to work or to school.” Employers with more than 50 workers are required by law to employ a 3% quota (定额) of disabled staff, and receive financial help to do so. But many companies simply pay workers to stay at home, or employ them only in the lowest-skilled jobs.In recent years, though, there have been efforts in Turkey to remove some of those barriers. Senturk believes the developments taking place in Turkey are encouraging, but he thinks even more can be done, which is one of the reasons why he wants to stand for the Turkish National Assembly. “In short, the world shouldnt be designed for one type of person, but for every type of people.”49. Which of the following is true of Senturk?A. He is a professional racing driver.B. He hosts a TV program on disability. C. He had no blind schoolmate at high school. D. He majored in human rights at university.50. Companies hiring the disabled in Turkey _.A. must allow the disabled to work at home B. must cut the working time of the disabled by 3% C. may get their taxes reduced by 20% D. may get support from the government51. We can infer from Paragraph 3 that _.A. most disabled employees work at home B. disabled workers are often treated unfairly C. Gul is an expert and lecturer with disabilities D. many disabled people fear working with others52. The last paragraph suggests that Senturk believes _.A. TNA should make new laws on disability B. more work should be done to help the disabled C. its hard to demand equal rights for the disabled D. special products for the disabled should be designedCThe United Nations yesterday urged a global phase-out of old-style light bulbs and a switch to low-energy lighting that would save billions of dollars and combat (对抗) climate change. About 40 countries already have plans to switch from incandescent light bulbs (白炽灯泡), the UN Environment Programme (UNEP) said in a report.Generation of electricity for lighting, often from burning fossil fuels, accounts for 8% of world greenhouse gas emissions (排放), it said. A shift to more efficient bulbs would cut electricity demand for lighting by 2%. Indonesia, for instance, could save $1bn a year and cut its greenhouse gas emissions by 8m tonnes a year, the equivalent of taking 2m cars off the road. Brazil could save $2bn a year, Mexico $900m, Ukraine $210m and South Africa $280m. All would also deliver big cuts in emissions. “The actual economic benefits could be even higher,” said Achim Steiner, head of UNEP, who added that a switch to efficient lighting in Indonesia would avoid the need to build several coal-fired power stations costing $2.5bn. And similar findings come from other country assessments. He also said the cost calculations did not include health benefits from switching from the use of fossil fuels, including use of kerosene lamps (煤油灯). About 1.8m deaths a year are linked with indoor air pollution. UNEP cautioned(警告) there were drawbacks because the most common low-energy light bulbs contain toxic (有毒的) material. It said countries need to ensure safe collection and disposal(处理) of the light bulbs. It is a central challenge, especially in developing countries. Countries including EU members, the US, Canada, Australia, Cuba and the Philippines were working on phase-outs of old-style bulbs. 53. The underlined part “phase-out” in the first paragraph means “_”.A. new recognition B. further discussionC. gradual disuse D. steady improvement54. By using low-energy bulbs, the greenhouse gas emissions will be reduced by _.A. 0.16% B. 2% C. 6% D. 8%55. Which of the following countries will save the most money by using low-energy bulbs?A. Indonesia.B. Brazil. C. Mexico. D. South Africa.56. Whats the challenge of popularizing low-energy bulbs?A. Inconvenience in using. B. Lack of financial support. C. Safety of dealing with used bulbs. D. Misunderstanding from the public.DI remember the first time that I was extremely happy. I was about 8 years old when for the first time, there was a computer in the classroom. I remember that my teacher allowed each student to take turns playing various educational games on the computer. One day, I found the source code for one of these games. Without knowing or being taught any programming language, I was able to figure out some portions(部分) of the BASIC code. The first code change that I did was when I changed a line from something like this: number_ of_ lives = number_ of_ lives 1To something like this: number_ of_ lives = number_ of_ lives 0Anyone who knows a bit of programming can tell you that I just gave myself an infinite (无穷大) number of lives in the game, so I could continue playing forever. This was also my first introduction to algebra (代数), and I didnt even know it at the time. This was a defining moment in my life. For the first time that I can remember, I was quite happy because of what I was learning and what I was able to do. As a result, I became enthusiastic for the rest of my life about self-learning and computers, and I was quite happy doing them, too. Ive noticed that people who are truly content with life are enthusiastic in what they do. This enthusiasm, along with good health, is the key to being happy. It also leads to self-confidence and fulfillment in life, too. It may also lead to success, wealth, and achievements. However, it is not success, wealth, or achievements that make people happy. I know plenty of rich people who are unhappy. I know several people with successful businesses that are not happy with what they are doing. I know people who continuously buy themselves new toys, such as cars, computers, and televisions, yet never seem content for too long. Please remember that enthusiasm and good health are the two most important factors in finding happiness. Happiness is the journey of life, not the destination. 57. What is the secret to finding happiness in the authors opinion?A. Success and wealth. B. Gifts and self-confidence. C. Knowledge and achievements.D. Enthusiasm and good health. 58. The author mentions the happiness he experienced at age 8 to tell readers that _. A. creative thinking can change ones whole lifeB. the BASIC code is not so difficult to learnC. being absorbed in something one loves makes one happyD. one can figure out any problem in life without others help59. The underlined word “defining” is the closest in meaning to “_”.A. crazy B. decisive C. common D. difficult 60. We can learn from the last paragraph that _.A. wealth can also bring people happiness B. rich people generally feel unhappy nowadays C. working whole-heartedly matters more than achievements D. one will feel unhappy once he gains what he wants 第二节 （共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分） 根据短文内容，从下框的AF选项中选出能概括每一段主题的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该选项涂黑。选项中有一项为多余项。A.
