It was always that way with Dad. I remembered Dad driving us to school, giving the same lecture every morning, Boys, youre getting the toolsof your trade. Get them now or youll be like a carpenter (木匠) without his toolsyou wont be able to make a living. But I daydreamed my way through classes. In the schoolyard, I was in a lot of fights. However, Dads most important lessons were the ones he never expressed in words. He worked hard to pay for everything we needed. He took care of my mothers family-her sister Virgiebelle and Virgiebelles daughter Dodie. My fathers world was filled with big talkers. Theyd often come to my house. Many had worked for my father and were looking forward to borrowing money from him. Dad was an easy touch.

Dad bought me another in place of that. When Frank got out of prison, Dad took him in. Dad was kind-hearted but no fool. After a few months, when Frank had made no progress in getting a job, Dad checked the basement bar (地窖). Bottles had been replaced empty or watered. Frank was soon gone from our life.

The history of Australia begins here. In 1788 Captain Arthur Phillips arrived in Sydney with 11 ships and 1,024 passengers (including 770 prisoners) from Britain. Today there are 2.5 million people in Sydney. It is the biggest city in Australia, and one of the most beautiful cities in the world. There are over 20 fine beaches close to Sydney. Its warm summer and cool winter have made it a favorite city for immigrants(移民) from overseas. There are three things that make Sydney famous- its beautiful harbor, the Sydney Harbor Bridge, and the Sydney Opera House.But there are many more interesting things in Sydney: beautiful shops and restaurants, for example, rows of interesting old houses built everywhere in the 19th century. Summer or winter, day or night, Sydney is an outdoor city. Some Americans think it is very British. Some British visitors think it is like America. There is some truth in both these opinions, because Sydney takes from both the Old World- Europe, and the New World- America, and makes itself into something that is neither British nor American but truly Australian.28. Which of the following statements is true?A. Sydney is a silent city. B. Sydney is a common city.C. Sydney is a new city. D. Sydney is a busy city.29. In 1788 Captain Arthur Phillips arrived in Sydney_.A. with 11 ships and only 700 prisonersB. with some ships and more than 1,000 passengers.C. with 1,024 passengers besides 700 prisonersD. with only more than ten ships and some helpers30. The climate in Sydney is _.A. neither too hot nor too cold B. warm all the year roundC. hot in summer and cold in winter D. cool all through the year31. The writer thinks Sydney_.A. is like America B. is neither British nor American but truly AustralianC. is very British D. takes from EuropeDIn the animal kingdom, weakness can bring about aggression（侵略） in other animals. This sometimes happens with people also. But I have found that my weakness brings out the kindness in people. I see it every day when people hold doors for me, pour cream into my coffee, or help me to put on my coat. And I have discovered that it makes them happy.From my wheelchair experience, I see the best in people, but sometimes I feel sad because those who appear independent miss the kindness I see daily. They dont get to see this soft side of others often; we try every way possible to avoid showing our weakness, which includes a lot of pretending. But only when we stop pretending were brave or strong do we allow people to show the kindness thats in them.Last month, when I was driving home on a busy highway, I began to feel unwell and drove more slowly than usual. People behind me began to get impatient and angry, with some speeding up alongside me, horning (按喇叭) or even shouting at me. At the moment I decided to do something I had never done in twenty four years of driving. I put on the car flashlights（闪光灯）and drove on at a really low speed.No more angry shouts and no more horns!When I put on my flashlights, I was saying to other drivers, “I have a problem here. I am weak and doing the best I can.” And everyone understood. Several times, I saw drivers who wanted to pass. They couldnt get around me because of the stream of passing traffic. But instead of getting impatient and angry, they waited, knowing the driver in front of them was in some way weak.Sometimes situations call for us to act strong and brave even when we dont feel that way. But those are and far between. More often, it would be better if we dont pretend we feel strong when we feel weak or pretend that we are brave when we are scared.32. The author has discovered that people will feel happy when _.A. they feel others kindness B. they receive others helpC. they offer their help D. they show their weakness33. What did the other drivers do when they saw the flashlights?A. They speed up to pass. B. They put on their flashlights too.C. They tried their best to help. D. They waited with patience.34. In this passage, the author advises us to _. A. admit our weakness B. accept help from others C. handle problems by ourselves D. show our bravery35. Which of the following is the best title for the passage?A. A Wheelchair Experience. B. Weakness and StrengthC. Weakness and Kindness. D. A Driving Experience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。My mother is a hard-working and kind woman. She is very busy from morning till night.
