I knew that kindness and caring must come from somewhere.I hadnt heard Ernie talk much about his father. It is so _50 to defend an alcoholic. One day I worked up my courage to ask him. “Im really 51 by something.” I said. “I know your father was basically the only one to raise you. What on earth did he do that you became such a special person”?Ernie reflected for a few moments. Then he said , “From my earliest _52_ as a child until I left home at 18,Al came into my room every night, gave me a kiss and said, I love you, son”.Tears came to my eyes 53 I realized what a fool I had been to judge Al as a failure .He hadnt left any 54 possessions behind, But he had been a kind loving father, and he 55 one of the finest, most giving men I have ever known.36.A.developed B.discovered C.bore D.complained37.A.thought B.held C.took D.looked38.A.puzzlement B.cause C.source D.seriousness39.A.deepened B.responded C.fell D.wrosened40.A.persuading B.losing C.leaving D.following41.A.more than B.less than C.other than D.rather than42.A.advocate B.alcoholic C.artist D.amateur43.A.used B.supported C.reserved D.possessed44.A.personally B.Shortly C.Eventually D.Unbelievably45.A.lives B.ends C.enjoys D.saves46.A.failure B.concern C.change D.break47.A.complaint B.treatment C.judgment D.statement48.A.ablest B.richest C.cleverest D.kindest49.A.flow B.charge C.kick D.pass50.A.usefull B.worthwhile C.hard D.ready51.A.amazed B.puzzled C.pleased D.frightened52.A.memories B.periods C.deeds D.feelings53.A.until B.if C.once D.as54.A.public B.precious C.material D.personal55.A.held back B.took on C.figured out D.left behind第三部分 阅读理解（共20小题；每小题2分，满分40分）第一节：阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项。AEvery parent wants their child to grow up to enjoy life and be successful. Each and every one of us has something that we dont want our children to experience as they get older. We protect them hoping they will never experience hurt, yet as they get older they come across their own struggles.We often do everything we can to keep them from making the mistakes that we have made. Your children are not you. They are incredible little beings that choose you to experience life with. They are not little “mini mes” that will make the same mistakes we have made or learn the way we learn from our own experiences. They go to school, have experiences that they only tell us about, and understand the experiences through their own thoughts and feelings mixed in with family behavioral patterns. This is where you can make a difference. Be an example.Teach your child how to live life by being the person you would want them to behelping others, loving yourself and making no judgments about other people. As you learn this in your own self and apply it, your child wont need you to speak a word. If little Joannie doesnt want to share with another child, show them how to share. Show by example.If you dont want others to walk all over you, treat others as you want to be treated because there is a child learning behaviors from you. Be the example of what you want your child to be through your own positive thoughts and feelings. It is the best thing you can do for your child and yourself to ensure your child feel accepted and loved as they get older.56. We can infer from the second paragraph that .A. children are likely to make mistakes their parents madeB. children dont want to spend time with their familyC. children are like their parents in many waysD. children base their actions on their thoughts57. The underlined phrase “walk all over you” in the last paragraph probably means “ ”.A. see your weaknesses B. know your thoughts C. learn your secrets D. treat you badly58. In the passage, the author expresses .A. his concern for the role parents play in families B. his support for childrens independenceC. his wonder at the potential (潜力)of childrenD. his surprise at parents stubbornness59. Which of the following will be the best title for the passage?A. Make no judgments about others B. Be the example in your childs life. C. Treat others as you want to be treated D. Keep your child from making your mistakes BMillions of people are using cell phones today. In many places it is actually considered unusual not to use one. In many countries, cell phones are very popular with young people. They find that the phones are more than a means of communication-having a mobile phone shows that they are cool and connected.The explosions around the world in mobile phone use make some health professional worried. Some doctors are concerned that in the future many people may suffer health problems from the use of mobile phones. In England, there has been a serious debate about this issue. Mobile phone companies are worried about the negative publicity of such ideas. They say that there is no proof that mobile phones are bad for your health.On the other hand, why do some medical studies show changes in the brain cells of some people who use mobile phones? Signs of change in the issues of the brain and head can be detected with modern scanning(扫描)equipment. In one case, a traveling salesman had to retire at a young age because of serious memory loss, He couldnt remember even simple tasks. He would often forget the name of his own son. This man used to talk on his mobile phone for about six hours a day, every day of his working week ,for a couple of years. His family doctor. blamed his mobile phone use, but his employers doctor didnt agree.What is it that makes mobile phones potentially harmful? The answer is radiation. High-tech machines can detect very small amounts of radiation from mobile phones. Mobile phone companies agree that there is some radiation, but they say the amount is too small to worry about.As the discussion about their safety continues, it appears that its best to use mobile phones less often. Use your regular phone if you want to talk for a long time. Use your mobile phone only when you really need it. Mobile phones can be very useful and convenient, especially in emergencies. In the future, mobile phones may have a warning label that says they are bad for your health. So for now, its wise not to use your mobile phone too often.60. .People buy cell phones for the following reasons except that .A.theyre popular B.theyre convenient C.theyre useful D.theyre cheap61.The world “detected” in paragraph 3 could be best replaced by .A.discovered B.removed C.cured D.caused62.On the safety issue of mobile phones, the manufacturing companies .A.deny the existence of mobile phone radiationB.develop new technology to reduce mobile phone radiation.C.hold that the amount of radiation is too small to worry aboutD.try to prove that mobile phones are not harmful to healthCWith eco-tourism on the rise, eco-hotels are fast becoming the darling of the travel industry. These days, however, staying at an eco-hotel doesnt necessarily mean vacationing in a tree house in the Costa Rican jungle, although that is certainly a choice. The majority of eco-hotels fall into one of several categories: hotels and resorts that conserve ecologically important habitats; “green” hotels that reduce, recycle, minimize waste, and protect water; sustainable hotels that harvest food from gardens on the hotel property or get part or all of their power from renewable energy; hotels that encourage community involvement such as guests taking part in trail（乡间小路） clearing; and hotels that offer some form of environmental education to their guests. As such, eco-hotels are a various group. Stylish urban hotels like the Willard Inter-Continental Washington focus on energy conservation whereas the Rosario Resort & Spa on Orcas Island in Washington State offers a wildly popular “green” vacation package where guests can “take a hike, clear a trail”. No matter what you call them, eco-hotel, eco-lodge, eco-resort, or green hotel, theyre all part of the “greening” of the tourism industry. Part of what drives this greening of the hotel industry is no doubt competition. Going green is yet another way to distinguish a hotel from the mass of other excellent hotels that consumers have to choose from. But for many hotels, its also part of their philosophy. With the concept of “going green” firmly rooted in consumers minds, eco-hotels have taken it to the next level, and whether or not money is the driving factor behind the greening of the hotel industry doesnt matter so much as its good for the planet.63. The underlined part in the first paragraph means _. A. lovers like staying at an eco-hotel when traveling B. eco-hotels are very popular in the travel industry C. eco-hotels are where young people love to live D. romantic love stories often happen in eco-hotels 64. According to the passage, which of the following can match the idea of eco-hotel? A. It uses renewable energy. B. It is comfortable and fashionable. C. It has walls of glass. D. It is home to endangered species. 65. From the passage, we know the Rosario Resort & Spa is a kind of hotel that _. A. protects important habitats B. harvests food from its own garden C. has courses on the environment for its guests D. encourages its guests to participate in its greening activities 66. People who choose to stay at eco-hotels _. A. love to take a hike B. have environmental awareness C. want to live comfortably D. enjoy the green atmosphere DCan you imagine a stranger will read your e-mails without your permission or scan thewebsite youve visited or perhaps someone will casually glance through your credit card purchases or cell phone bills? All of the things may happen to you one day.In fact, its likely that some of these things have already happened to you. Who would watch you without your permission? It might be a spouse, a girlfriend, a marketing company, a boss, a cop or a criminal. Whoever it is they will see you in a way you never intended to be seen or even do something that may bring a disaster to you.Psychologists tell us boundaries are healthy, and that its important to reveal to friends, family and lovers at appropriate times. But few boundaries remain nowadays. The digital bread crumbs (碎屑)you leave everywhere make it easy for strangers to know who you are, where you are and what you like. In some cases, a simple Google search can leak the deepest thought in your mind. Like it or not，increasingly we live in a world where you simply cannot keep a secret.The key question is： Does that matter? For many Americans, the answer apparently is “no”.When opinion polls（调查问卷） ask Americans about privacy, most of them say they are really concerned about losing it. And 60 percent of the respondents say they feel their privacy is slipping away, and that bothers me.But people say one thing and do another. Only a small of Americans change any behaviors in an effort to preserve their privacy. Few people turn down a discount at tollbooths (收费站）to avoid using the EZ-Pass system that can track automobile movements. Privacy economist Acquisti has run a series of tests that reveal people will give up personal information such astelephone number, address ，or social security numbers just to get their hands on a pitiful 50- cents-off coupon(优惠券）.But privacy does matterat least sometimes. Its like health； when you have it , you dont notice it. Only when its gone do you wish youd done more to protect it. Without privacy, one will be naked in front of others.67.What would psychologists advise on the relationships between friends?A.Friends should open their hearts to each other. B.Friends should always be faithful to each other.C.There should be a distance even between friends.D.There should be fewer quarrels between friends.68.Why does the author say “we live in a world where you simply cannot keep a secret?A.Modern society has finally developed into an open society.B.People leave traces around when using modern technology.C.There are always people who are curious about others ，affairs.D.Many search engines profit by revealing peoples identities.69.What do most Americans do about privacy protection?A. They change behavior that might disclose their identity.B.People turn down a discount at tollbooths to avoid using the EZ-Pass system.C.They rely more and more on advanced technology.D.They talk a lot but hardly do anything about it.70. According to the passage ,privacy is like health in that _.A.people will make every effort to keep it B.its importance is hardly understoodC.it is something that can easily be lost D.people dont value it until they lose it第二节: 信息匹配. 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. 71 Ive spent several weeks trying to find the perfect way to work at my computer without a chair. Now more and more people like to have a change and stand up when they are on something important. Standing up is enjoyed by more people. Medical researchers have found people standing at work tend to be more healthier than those who sit. But I wasnt just looking for better health. 72 In the last few years, many office supply companies have begun to sell the adjustable-height desks. These so-called “sit/stand” models are equipped with an electric motor that lets them
