共 20 小题 每题 2 分 满分 40 分 阅读下列短文 从每题所给的 A B C D 四个选项中 选出最佳答案 A I began working in journalism 新闻工作 when I was eight It was my mother s idea She wanted me to make something of myself and decided I had better start young if I was to have any chance of keeping up with the competition With my load of magazines I headed toward Belleville Avenue The crowds were there There were two gas stations on the corner of Belleville and Union For several hours I made myself highly visible making sure everyone could see me and the heavy black letters on the bag that said THE SATURDAY EVENING POST When it was supper time I walked back home How many did you sell my boy my mother asked None Where did you go The corner of Belleville and Union Avenues What did you do Stood on the corner waiting for somebody to buy a Saturday Evening Post You just stood there Didn t sell a single one My God Russell Uncle Allen put in Well I ve decided to take the Post I handed him a copy and he paid me a nickel 五分镍币 It was the first nickel I earned Afterwards my mother taught me how to be a salesman I would have to ring doorbells address adults with self confidence and persuade them by saying that no one no matter how poor could afford to be without the Saturday Evening Post in the home One day I told my mother I d changed my mind I didn t want to make a success in the magazine business If you think you can change your mind like this she replied you ll become a good for nothing She insisted that as soon as school was over I should start ringing doorbells selling magazines Whenever I said no she would scold me My mother and I had fought this battle almost as long as I could remember My mother dissatisfied with my father s plain workman s life determined that I would not grow up like him and his people But never did she expect that forty years later such a successful journalist as me would go back to her husband s people for true life and love 6 56 Why did the boy start his job young A He wanted to be famous in the future B The job was quite easy for him C His mother had high hopes for him D The competition for the job was fierce 57 From the dialogue between the boy and his mother we learn that the mother was A excitedB interested C ashamed D disappointed 58 What did the mother do when the boy wanted to give up A She forced him to continue B She punished him C She gave him some money D She changed her plan 59 What does the underlined phrase this battle refer to A The war between the boy s parents B The arguing between the boy and his mother C The quarrel between the boy and his customers D The fight between the boy and his father 60 What is the text mainly about A The early life of a journalist B The early success of a journalist C The happy childhood of the writer D The important role of the writer in his family B All parents know that one of their most important tasks is to prepare their children for an independent life but any parent can tell you that it s hard to let go of your children That balance between keeping your children safe and allowing them to learn from their own mistakes can be heartbreaking Years of experience means that parents often do know best but on the other hand the young being less bound by tradition are often more creative more able to find new solutions to old problems Revolutions are led by the young Good teachers make the growth of critical 批判性的 thinking easier in their students only to find that this can lead to a questioning of the teachers basic beliefs Schools encourage parents to become involved but are often embarrassed when parents have reservations about some of the educational methods being used Governments encourage unimportant groups to empower themselves in order to participate fully in the development process And they are often surprised when the new leaders of these groups turn around and attack the policies of that same government The rebellions 叛逆的 young and the newly unimportant groups are important in social development They are not necessarily representatives of those they want to represent or not realistic in their demands but their voices must be heard Good parents know that just forbidding particular behaviors does not prevent their children from finding ways to engage in these forbidden activities Indeed sometimes the forbidden fruit is more inviting just because it is not accepted by authority Parents must work with their children to educate them on the facts know as much as possible about the lives of their children 7 provide a good example encourage more wholesome activities but also support their children when they don t follow what is expected of them But the most important point is that they also need to learn how to let go 61 By saying Revolutions are led by the young the author indicates that young people are more A creative B realistic C conventional D heartbreaking 62 From the second paragraph we know A teachers basic beliefs should be questioned by students B schools encourage parents to question their education methods C the government is satisfied with the new leaders attack on the policies D the voice of the rebellious young should be heard by the government 63 In order to educate children well parents should A forbid particular behaviors in their daily life B know them well and set a good example to them C educate them with facts and expect much of them D know as much as possible as their children 64 From the passage we can learn that the author prefers A free parentingB traditional parenting C smart parentingD critical parenting 65 What is the best title of the passage A Letting Go for Children s Independent Life B Parents Tasks in Children s Development C Way of Growth for the Young Groups D Teaching Methods for Teachers and Schools C An allowance 零花钱 is an important tool for teaching kids how to make plans for the use of money save and make their own decisions Children remember and learn from mistakes when their own dollars are lost or spent foolishly How large an allowance is suitable Experts say there is not right amount Actual amounts differ from region to region and from family to family To set an suitable allowance for your child work up a weekly plan Allow for entertainment costs such as movies and snacks Next include everyday expenses such as lunch money bus fare school supplies If you make the child responsible for these bills says Josephine Swanson a consumer specialist he or she will learn to plan for necessary costs Finally add some extra money to make saving possible If you can keep your child s allowance in line with that of his friends A child whose buying power falls away below his peers can feel left out It can be tough but don t excuse your children when they make a mistake with their allowance When Brooke Stephens was ten and growing up in Jacksonville her mother gave her 5 a week 1 75 of which was for bus fare and lunch If you lose your money Brooke s mother told her you walk home One week the girl spent all her allowance in a candy store then she called 8 home for a ride Mom made me walk home recalls Stephens now a financial planner in Brooklyn At first I was angry But I finally realized that she was trying to teach me an important lesson Experts advise that an allowance should not be tied directly to a child s daily housework at home Kids should help around the house not because they get paid for it but because they share responsibilities as members of a family You might however pay a child for doing extra jobs at home which can develop his or her early habits 66 Which of the following is the possible title of the passage A How to develop a child s early habits B How to work up an amount of pocket money C How to teach a child about money D How to teach a child to save money 67 It can be inferred from the passage that if a child is given an allowance he or she may A spend all the money very soon B fall into the bad habit of wasting money C feel responsible and careful about money D lose the money and can not return home 68 In Paragraph 4 the words his peers refer to A his parentsB his friends C his financial expertsD his teachers 69 Why does the writer mention Brooke Stephens A To question the opinion about pocket money B To compare Stephens with other financial experts C To explain that parents should be strict when children are developing good habits about money D To suggest pocket money is useless in developing a child s sense of responsibility 70 The writer implies in the passage that A children may feel lonely if they have no pocket money B a child s early good habits can be developed if he or she is paid for all the housework C paying children for their housework is no good 9 D children may learn to put aside some money if they are given a great amount of pocket money D The expression means being afraid to do something you have decided to do For example you agree to be president of an organization But then you learn that all the other officers have resigned All the work of the organization will be your responsibility You are likely to get cold feet about being the president when you understand the situation Cold can also affect your shoulder You give someone the cold shoulder when you refuse to speak to them You treat them in a distant and cold way The expression probably comes from the physical act of turning your back toward someone instead of speaking to him face to face You may give a cold shoulder to a friend who has not kept a promise he made to you or to someone who has lied about you to others A cold fish is not a fish It is a person But it is a person who is unfriendly unemotional and shows no love or warmth A cold fish does not offer much of himself to anyone Out in the cold is an expression often heard It means not getting something that everybody else got A person might say that everybody but him got a pay raise and that he was left out in the cold And it is not a pleasant place to be 71 The passage is intended to tell us that A cold weather has a great effect on human bodies B many English expressions contain the word cold C cold is a word closely linked with human emotions D the word cold has many different meanings in English 72 The underlined word brutal in Paragraph 1 most probably means A impoliteB illegalC cruel D extreme 73 Which of the following expressions can best describe a person who is unwilling to offer anything to others A Cold blooded B To get cold feet C A cold shoulder D A cold fish 74 You can say Tom if the teacher gives all the boys except him a pen as a prize A is given the cold shoulder B is left out in the cold C has got cold feet D is murdered by a cold blooded killer 75 We can draw a conclusion from the passage that A all the expressions containing the word cold have a negative meaning B all the expressions containing the word cold have something to do with cold 10 C people who show no human emotions or feelings have cold blood D many parts of the human body can be badly affected by cold 第 卷 二部分 共 35 分 第一节 阅读表达 阅读下面文章 然后根据要求完成后面问题 1 Everyone makes mistakes How do you react when a family member friend or a classmate makes a mistake Some of us may shout out complain or punish Unfortunately these reactions to mistakes sometimes greatly hurt both sides In fact there is a better way to deal with a mistake 2 Reframe 重组 MISTAKE Change MISTAKE into MIS TAKE Doesn t that have a different feeling Therefore a mistake is not so bad as expected We can learn from it and it is likely to lead to success in the end 3 Use mistakes as an opportunity for learning Most of us want to hide our mistakes but we may be more willing to share our MIS TAKES and let others learn from them Either an individual or a family can benefit by openly recognizing and correcting mistakes rather than pretending that they didn t happen In fact a mistake if corrected quickly and in a creative way can become for learning 4 Think of mistakes as opportunities to prove yourself A mistake becomes an opportunity to create a close friend or customer For example in business studies show that one of the things all customers
