was often treated unfairly People in department stores at banks and at restaurants did not take her seriously did not give her good service pretended not to understand her or even acted as if they did not hear her My mother has realized the limitations of her English as well When I was fifteen she used to have me call people on phone to pretend I was she I was forced to ask for information or even to yell at people who had been rude to her One time I had to call her stockbroker 股票经纪人 I said in an adolescent voice that was not very convincing This is Mrs Tan And my mother was standing beside me whispering loudly Why he don t send me check already two weeks late And then in perfect English I said I m getting rather concerned You agreed to send the check two weeks ago but it hasn t arrived Then she talked more loudly What he want I come to New York tell him front of his boss And so I turned to the stockbroker again I can t tolerate any more excuse If I don t receive the check immediately I am going to have to speak to your manager when I am in New York next week The next week we ended up in New York While I was sitting there red faced my mother the real Mrs Tan was shouting to his boss in her broken English o m When I was a teenager my mother s broken English embarrassed me But now I see it differently To me my mother s English is perfectly clear perfectly natural It is my mother tongue Her language as I hear it is vivid direct and full of observation and wisdom It was the language that helped shape the way I saw things expressed ideas and made sense of the world 56 Why was the author s mother poorly served w w w k s5 u c o m A She was unable to speak good English B She was often misunderstood C She was not clearly heard D She was not very polite W w w k s 5 u c o m 57 From Paragraph 2 we know that the author was 5 A good at pretending B rude to the stockbroker C ready to help her mother D unwilling to phone for her mother 58 After the author made the phone call A they forgave the stockbroker B they failed to get the check C they went to New York immediately D they spoke to their boss at once 59 What does the author think of her mother s English now o m A It confuses her B It embarrasses her C It helps her understand the world D It helps her tolerate rude people 60 We can infer from the passage that Chinese English w w w k s5 u c o m A is clear and natural to non native speakers B is vivid and direct to non native speakers C has a very bad reputation in America D may bring inconvenience 不便 in America B B Education is not an end but a means to an end In other words we do not educate children only for the purpose of educating them our purpose is to fit them for life In many modern countries it has for some time been fashionable 流行的 to think that by free education for all whether rich or poor clever or stupid one can solve all the problems of society and build a perfect nation But we can already see that free education for all is not enough we find in such countries a far larger number of people with university degrees 学位 they refuse to do what they think low work and in fact work with hands is thought to be dirty and shameful in such countries But we have only to think a moment to understand that the work of a completely uneducated farmer is far more important than that of a professor we can live without education but we die if we have no food If no one cleaned our streets and took the rubbish away from our houses we should get terrible diseases in our towns In fact when we say that all of us must be educated to fit us for life it means that we must be educated in such a way that firstly each of us can do whatever work suited to his brains and ability and secondly that we can realize that all jobs are necessary to society and that it is very bad to be unwilling to do one s work Only such a type of education can be considered valuable to society 61 In the writer s opinion A free education for all probably leads to a perfect world B all the social problems can t be solved by education C education can solve most of the world s problems D free education won t help to solve problems 6 62 The writer wants to prove that A a farmer is more important than a professor B our society needs free education for all C our society needs all kinds of jobs D work with hands is the most important 63 The purpose of education is to A build a perfect world B let everyone receive education C choose officials for the country D prepare children mainly for their future work 64 What is mainly discussed in the text A The type of education B The value of education C The means of education D The system of education 65 What can we learn from the text A Work with hands is thought to be shameful in some modern countries B In all modern countries free education has been fashionable C A perfect nation can solve all the problems of society D A professor is far more important than a farmer C Text messaging 发信息 was designed for quick exchange of information For messages that need short words the short messaging systems are preferred In a public place for example it is better for people to send text messages than to talk loudly and disturb others with their conversation It has its advantages but sadly there are also disadvantages There have been several celebrities 名人 and TV shows raising the problem about accidents caused by sending or reading text messages while driving It causes drivers to lose control or lose their concentration while driving Text messaging may actually be more dangerous than talking while driving as it requires the driver to take his eyes off the road and onto the phone It is a most dangerous thing to do while driving The other disadvantage is the poor spelling habit that it develops among young people It is natural for them to want to make a shorter form of the words so as to get it done quickly However they carry this through even when writing formal documents 文件 Young people are becoming poor at spelling even simple words Text messaging also brings about an impersonal 冷淡的 culture People communicate with text messaging And they say important things on their phone when they should actually be said in person Culture changes along with its people and that is something that everyone knows will happen What is sad is what it is turning into Although many will argue that this kind of change is just like any other change that happened in the past radical 激进的 in the beginning common finally Text messaging may be one of those but it is pretty hard to think about the time when the phone separates two people even when they are sitting side by side 7 66 We can know from the first paragraph that A text messaging is becoming less popular B some people like listening to others talk C people would like to make a phone call in public D many people prefer text messaging 67 Young people cannot spell even simple words probably because A they often write formal documents B they often use a shorter form of the words to send messages C They don t work hard at their lessons D they only remember how to spell difficult words 68 How many disadvantages does the text messaging have according to this passage A Five B Four C Three D Two 69 The author s attitude towards the use of text messaging is A unconcerned 不关心 B amazed C supportive D worried 70 The purpose of this passage is to A list the disadvantages of text messaging B introduce the development that text messaging brings C describe 描写 the convenience 方便 that text messaging brings D compare the disadvantages and disadvantages of text messaging 第二节 阅读下面短文 把相关信息填在答题卷指定位置 共 5 题 满分 5 分 A man found the cocoon 茧 of a butterfly One day a small opening appeared He sat and watched the butterfly for several hours as it struggled to get out of the cocoon Then it seemed to stop It appeared to have gotten as far as it could and to be able to go no further So the man decided to help the butterfly He took a pair of scissors and cut off the remainder of the cocoon The butterfly then got out easily But it then had a weak body and small shriveled 皱缩 wings The man continued to watch the butterfly because he d expected that at any moment the wings would grow and it would fly off Neither happened In fact the butterfly spent the rest of its life crawling 爬行 around weak and small It was never able to fly What a shame What the man in his kindness and fast action hadn t understood was the struggle required for the butterfly The butterfly needed to get through the small opening itself so that it would be ready for flight once it achieved its freedom from the cocoon Sometimes struggles are exactly what we need in our lives If nature allowed us to go through our lives without any difficulties it would weaken our abilities We would not be as strong as what we could have been And we could never fly Fill in the blanks with the proper words or phrases The man The butterfly found a cocoon and watched it struggled to get out of 71 72 the remaind
