However, this 32 story is one such lesson that I will never forget. Every time I drift off course, I get 33 of this story.It was a normal Monday morning he was 34 the students on important things in life and about 35 ourselves to what is important to us. This is how the story 36 .An old man lived in a certain part of London, and he would 37 every morning and get the train right to Central London, then 38 at the street corner and beg. He would do this every 39 day of his life. He sat at the same street corner and had begged for almost 20 years.His house was 40 and unpleasant smell came out of the house. The neighbors could not 41 the smell any more, so they called the police officers to 42 this place. The officers knocked down the door and cleaned the house. There were small bags of 43 all over the house that the old man had collected over the years.The police counted the money, and they soon realized that the old man was a 44 . They waited outside his house, expecting to 45 the good news with him. When he arrived home , he was met by one of the officers who told him that there was no 46 for him to beg any more. He said nothing 47 , but went into his house and locked the door. The next morning he begged as usual.Obviously, this old man had no great plans, dreams or anything significant for his life. We learn nothing from this story 48 staying focused on the things we enjoy doing.We should remain true to our course, which may mean devoting ourselves to things that people around us would normally 49 ,and let nothing else determine our fate, but ourselves.What makes us happy is what 50 in the end, not what we get.31ANormally BExactly CPersonally DGradually32Afluent BOptional可选择的 Cparticular Doptimistic33Ainformed Bwarned Caccused Dreminded34ADisputing争论 Bclaiming Caddressing Dadvising35Aengaging Bdevoting Coccupying Dadjusting36Awent Bcontinued Cimplied Dreported37Atidy up Blook up Cdry up Dwake up38Asit Blie Cwait Dsell39Aother Bsingle Cminor Donly 40Aneat Bodd 奇怪的 Cdelicate Dmessy41AProhibit禁止 Bsee Cresist Dstand42Aclear Bdestroy CMop拖洗 Dwash43Aproperty Bbooks Cmoney Dstamps44Amillionaire Bworker Ccleaner Dbeggar45Aappreciate Bdivide Cshare D. ensure 46Apossibility Balternative Cneed Ddemand47Aafter all Bat all Cabove all Dall in all48Arather than Bother than Cmore than Dless than49Aoverlook （忽略）Badvocate CNegotiate（谈判 ） Ddisapprove50Awins Badmires Cmatters Dsucceeds第三部分：阅读理解(共20小题；每小题2分，满分40分)阅读下列短文，从每篇短文后所给各题的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。AWeighing too much can damage your health, and fatness is a growing problem for both kids and adults around the world.Sleep might be one answer to the problem. A new study has found that elementary school students who slept too little were more likely to gain pounds.Past studies have shown a link between sleeping less and weighing more, but scientists have had a tough time determining “which came first, the chicken or the egg,” says Julie C. Lumeng of the University of Michigan.To get a better idea of which causes which, Lumeng and colleagues interviewed the parents of 785 third graders from around the United States. The parents answered questions about how well their kids slept that year. Three years later, the parents answered the same questions.By sixth grade, 18 percent of kids involved in the study were obese . The scientists found no relationship between weight and the students race or gender . It also didnt matter how strict their parents were, or whether they were boys or girls. Obesity struck all of these groups equally.Instead, sleep seemed to be the key factor. Over the 3 years of the study, the children averaged a healthy 9.5 hours of sleep a night. Some kids, however, slept a lot more or less than others.For the sixth graders, every hour of sleep above the 9.5-hour average was linked to a 20 percent lower risk of being obese. Sleep appeared doubly important for the third graders. Every extra hour of sleep they got was linked to a 40% drop in obesity by sixth grade.“I expected wed find that this sleep link with obesity was just a bunch of nonsense.” says Lumeng, a pediatrician （儿科医生）. But their findings were convincing. No matter how her team looked at the link, “we couldnt make it go away.”51.Which of the following statements is TURE?A.More and more kids put on weight. B. 18% of the six graders were very fat.C.9.5 hours of sleep a night is harmful. D. Parents should be strict with their children.52. We can infer from the passage that .A. the sixth graders need more sleep than the third gradersB. the third graders need more sleep than the sixth gradersC. boys and girls were quite different in sleeping hoursD. after three years study, the children had healthy sleeping hours53. What does the word “it” in the last line of the last paragraph refer to?A. Julie C. Lumengs team.B. The conclusion of the study.C. The relation between less sleep and less weight.D. The relation between more sleep and less weight.54. What is the best title for the passage?A. Sleeping is ImportantB. Over Sleeping is HarmfulC. Less Sleep, More WeightD. More Sleep, More WeightBChristmas is a religious holiday. It is the day on which Christians celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ. It is a happy holiday. Families come together to share their happiness, go to church, and exchange gifts. During the days before Christmas, parties are held in schools, offices, factories, and clubs; homes and stores are crowded with shoppers.Cities and towns in the United States sparkle with bright lights and decorations. Churches, homes, schools, shops, and streets are decorated with Christmas trees, colored lights, Santa Claus and his reindeer, and nativity scenes showing the stable where Jesus Christ was born. Store windows display gifts and Christmas scenes. The traditional colors for this holiday are red and green, and red poinsettia is considered as the Christmas flower. On Christmas Eve, President of the United States turns on the lights of the Christmas tree near the White House and sends his greetings to the nation.Families prepare for this holiday a few weeks before. They make special foods. They make and buy gifts. They wrap them with ornaments and lights. Houses are decorated with wreaths of holly, evergreens, and mistletoe. Many families share memories by following special ethnic Christmas traditions from their country of origin. On Christmas Eve, many read the famous prom A Visit from Saint Nicholas by Clement Moore. Children hang up stockings to receive gifts from Santa Claus. Schools usually have two weeks of vacation, and some families take vacations together.People wish each other “Merry Christmas” during this holiday season. In many states, people look forward to snow (White Christmas). Christmas carols are sung on the radio and in public places during this season. Some of the most famous carols are Silent Night, The First Noel, Joy to the World, and Jingle Bells. There are many shows on television called “Christmas Specials”. Films like A Christmas Carol (by Charles Dickens) and Miracle on 34th Street are family favorites. Churches, organizations, and newspapers ask for donations of money and food for the needy. Volunteers from the Salvation Army stand outside stores collecting money for the same purpose. Meals are prepared and served to the poor and homeless.55.People celebrate Christmas Day because .A.they want to share their happiness togetherB.they want to get Christmas gifts from Santa ClausC.they want to express their thanks to Jesus ChristD.they want to celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ56.

Rich and poor, young and old, one can see them all there, shouting and cheering for one side or the other.One of the most surprising things about football in England to a stranger is the great knowledge of the game which even the smallest boy seems to have. He can tell you the names of the players in most of the important teams. He has photographs of them and knows the results of a large number of matches. He will tell you, with a great air of authority, who he expects will win such and such a match, and his opinion is usually as valuable as that of men three or four times his age.Most schools in England take football seriously-much more seriously than nearly all European schools, where lessons are all-important, and games are left for private arrangements. In England, it is believed that education is not only a matter of filling a boys mind with facts in a classroom education also means character training. One of the best ways of training character is by means of games, especially team games, where the boy has to learn to work with others for his team, instead of working selfishl
