I have been a news reporter for the past fifteen years. I chose this job so I could travel the world, but the job has taught me many unforgettable lessons. The work is sometimes difficult. I have seen famines, wars, earthquakes, poverty and death. But I have also seen courage, hope and happiness.In India, I visited a city where there were many homeless children. Some were as young as four years old. They lived in the streets and survived by begging or stealing. But then a wonderful lady called Rosa opened a home for them. Within one year, she was looking after two hundred children. She clothed them, fed them, and taught them. She gave them hope.Another time, I was in Turkey after a terrible earthquake, in one place. I found an old lady whose house was in ruins, her son was missing and rescue workers said there was no chance that he was still alive. But the old lady did not give up hope. For four days, she moved heavy stones one at a time by herself. She did not stop until she found her son. He was alive.Here in China, I met a young boy with a serious condition. He had undergone twenty operations and spent nearly his whole life in hospital. I thought he would be sad, but when I met him, his smile was so warm and welcoming.In life, we need role models that we can admire and learn from. When my life is difficult, I try to remember the courage and goodness of these three people.1. The underlined word “ famine ”in Paragraph 2 means _.A. pleasure B. joy C. luck D. extreme lack of food2. What can we learn about Rosa? A. She s a rich lady and she likes to help the homeless children.B. She s a kind-hearted woman and she provides houses for the homeless children.C. She s a great mother and she looks after the homeless children.D. She s a good teacher and she teaches the homeless children.3. The speaker is giving a speech to students in _.A. China B. Canada C. Turkey D. India4. For what does the speaker admire the Turkish woman and the Chinese boy?A. Their bravery. B. Their strong mind.C. Their age. D. Their luck.B Are you stuck in a job you dont like? Many people hold ideas about jobs and careers that are holding them back. Lets see the truth behind some career myths. A CV (简历) is the only way to get a job. To tell the truth, many employers dont like or actually read CVs. Some employers would prefer to judge a person after a face-to-face meeting, or give them some part-time work first to see what they are truly like in the workplace. Having an up-to-date CV is important when applying for jobs advertised in the paper, from larger organizations, or when you want to leave some information about yourself for the employers. I have to make my decision now and stick to it. There is a great saying: “Life is a journey not a destination.” Journeys are full of options. You make and change your decisions all the time based on new experiences and information. Yes, you do have to make decisions, but you do not have to be limited by those career decisions by sticking to them. Whats more important is having a go and exploring new things. I cant get into the work I like because there are too few opportunities. I have no doubt getting into work that you really want to do can be challenging. But I do also believe opportunities exist in most career areas because employment needs change all the time. One strategy Id suggest if you cant get your dream job is to go after what you want and grab any opportunity that moves you toward your dream job. Its the schools responsibility to talk about careers and work. Schools do have a part to play in providing career advice for students, but others also have a responsibility. I would suggest that a student-parent-school partnership approach is a far better way of looking at this. A lot of information is available on the internet, in the newspapers, through relatives and friends. 5. The passage was written mainly to _. A. tell people how to get a good jobB. teach people how to behave in a job interview C. correct some wrong ideas about looking for jobs D. introduce right attitudes towards work6. According to the passage, when you are looking for jobs a CV _. A. is the most important thing B. is no longer popular C. should be given face to face. D. should contain your latest information 7. We can learn from the last paragraph that _. A. students should use as many resources as possible when looking for a job B. the school is the main source of career advice to students C. students should rely on relatives and friends to find a good jobD. information on the Internet is not necessarily true C The piano on which Mozart wrote all of his late works returned home to Vienna for the first time since his death in 1791. The piano will stand in his former Vienna home, now a museum, for two weeks, ending in a concert of the works by Mozart.Mozart bought the instrument from Anton Walter, the most famous piano maker of his time, in 1782. He wrote more than 50 works for the piano on it, many of them in the apartment in Vienna. After Mozarts death, Constanze, Mozarts wife, gave the instrument to their elder surviving son, Carl Thomas, who donated it to the Mozarteum Salzburg on what would have been the composers 100th birthday. The piano is now part of the permanent exhibition in the Austrian city of Salzburg. “ It was very hard to let it go,” said Matthias Schulz, director of the Mozarteum Salzburg. “ If we didn t know it was in the best hands, we wouldn t have done it.” The piano is much smaller and lighter than modern concert ones. Its sound is fresher and brighter than that of a modern piano, with lighter action and hammers (音锤).Piano restorer Josef Meingast, who has looked after the Mozart piano since 1975, said it was superior to any of its surviving copies. Meingast said he had to fight to replace the existing strings (琴键), dating from a 1973 restoration, with softer ones that produce a rounder sound thought to be more similar to what Mozart would have produced. Russian pianist Alexander Melnikov, who planned to give a concert of Mozart s music on the piano on November 7, said he was privileged to play such an instrument. Its easily the biggest day of a musician s life.” 8. According to the passage, the piano_. . A. is now being owned by the Mozart family B. has been kept by Carl Thomas since Mozart died C. is much bigger and heavier than modern ones D. is part of the permanent exhibition in the city of Salzburg9. Which of the following statements is true according to the passage? A. The piano has never been repaired. B. Anton Walter was also a very famous pianist. C. Josef Meingast devoted himself to restoring the piano. D. Matthias Schulz doubted if the piano would be well looked af.10. How will Alexander Melnikov feel when playing that piano? A.UpsetB. HonoredC. FrightenedD. Creative11. What is the main idea of this passage? A. Mozarts piano returns home to Vinna.B. Mozarts piano connects too many artists.C. Mozarts piano reflects all his wonderful life.D. Mozarts piano is restored to its original form.D Kids are cool to wear blue jeans and T-shirts today. It is fashionable like that. Fashion refers to the styles of dress that are currently popular. Fashion goes beyond just clothes, though. Its important for some people to wear only the latest fashions and styles. For others, though, keeping up with trends isnt that important. The one thing that stays the same with fashion is this: it always changes!During the 1960s and 1970s, hippies made bell-bottomed blue jeans（喇叭裤）popular. Also, in the 1980s, Michael Jackson made parachute pants（降落伞裤）all the fashion. Now try to find these items in todays clothing stores!Do you know why fashions change? The answer is probably as simple as the fact that people change. Over time, the new replaces the old. People are influenced greatly by popular culture, including athletes, musicians, movies stars, as well as popular films, television shows, books and music. We are also influenced by the fashion industrys advertising.The stars of popular culture are always searching for a new angle to maintain（保持）their popularity. Often these new angles come in the form of new clothing or hairstyles. When people see these new styles, they often want to imitate their favorite stars. To do so, they seek out the latest fashions to make themselves look like the people they want to imitate. In this way, fashions evolve and change over time. Clothes have been used to separate people into groups for many years. Even today, brand-name, clothing that is more expensive than other types of clothing can be used by some people to distinguish themselves from others.Unfortunately, this can often have the effect of distancing certain groups from others. Dont forget that its always OK to develop your own sense of style that is unique and separate from what the fashion world determines! Stay true to yourself and let your personalitynot your clothesspeak for who you are！12. What does the example of bell-bottomed blue jeans and parachute pants in Paragraph 2 suggest?A. Michael Jackson is a good designer.B. Stars are always influential.C. People have different dressing styles.D. Fashion always changes.13. What causes the changes of fashions?A. Advertisements change rapidly.B. Movie stars are changing over time.C. Popular culture influences people.D. New films and shows replace the old.14. What does the author mainly want to stress in the last paragraph?A. The importance of having ones own personality. B. The bad effects of following fashion.C. The good influences of popular styles. D. The advantages of staying unique.15. We can learn from the text that_.A. fashion is all about clothesB. clothes may separate and distance people C. the author has gone out of fashionD. people like imitating others dressing style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。 Even if you think that your parents are mean-spirited at times, loving your parents is a normal and fulfilling part of life.
