I was having 37 handling my part-time job at the bank in the daytime and my acting at night at the same time. As I walked, I thought seriously about 38 both acting and San Francisco. I had 39 too much of city life.As I walked down the 40 streets under the tall buildings, I felt very small and cold, so I began 41 both to keep warm and to keep away from any possible robbers. Very few people were still out 42 a few homeless people under blankets.About a block from my 43 , I heard a sound behind me. I 44 quickly, half expecting to see someone with a knife or a gun. The street was empty. All I saw was a shining streetlight. Still, the noise had made me 45 so I started to run faster. Not until I reached my apartment building and unlocked the door did I 46 what the noise had been. It had been my wallet 47 to the sidewalk.Suddenly I wasnt cold or tired anymore. I ran out of the door and back to where Id heard the noise. Although I searched the sidewalk 48 for 15 minutes, my wallet was 49 to be found.Just as I was about to quit the 50 , I heard the garbage truck stop to the sidewalk next to 51 . when a voice came from the inside, “Alisa Camcho?” I thought I was dreaming. How could this man know my name? The door opened and out jumped a small blonde man with an 52 look in his eyes. “Is this 53 youre looking for?” He asked, holding up something like a wallet.It was already 3 a.m. by the time I got into bed. I couldnt get much sleep, but I had got my wallet back. I also had got back some 54 of city life. I realized the city couldnt be a bad place 55 people were willing to help each other.36AcomfortableBseriousCtiresomeDfortunate37Acomfort BdesireCpainDtrouble38Asetting upBgiving upCholding upDpicking up39AexpectedBchangedCcontrolledDpossessed40AdesertedBcrowdedCblankDnarrow41ArunningBjumpingCmovingDmarching42AtowardsBexceptCincludingDbetween43AbankBtheatreCapartmentDoffice44AstoodBwalkedCturnedDleft45AsatisfiedBconfusedCfrightenedDannoyed46Aturn outBfigure outCgive outDpull out47AbelongingBaddingCstickingDfalling48AgratefullyBanxiouslyCskilfully Ddelightedly49AnowhereBanywhere Ceverywhere Dsomewhere50AinstructionBtrainingCsearchDacting51AitBhimCsomeoneDme52AamusedBunpleasantCuneasy Dembarrassed53AwhatBwhoCwhicheverDwhomever54AproductionBjudgmentCfriendship Dappreciation55Aas soon asBas long asCas far asDas well as第三部分 阅读理解（共20小题；每小题2分，满分40分） 第一节（共15小题；每小题2分，共30分）阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。AWhen middle-aged Alex quit his job and made up his mind to become a self-employed writer, no one could tell for sure whether he would succeed or notHe found a cold storage room in a building, set up a used typewriter and settled down to workAfter a year or so, however, Alex began to doubt himselfHe found it was difficult to earn his living by selling what he wroteBut Alex determined to put his dream to the testeven though it meant living with uncertainty and fear of failureThis is the shadowland （虚幻世界） of hope, and anyone with a dream must learn to live thereOne day Alex got a call, We need an assistant, and were paying $ 6,000 a year $ 6,000 was real money in 1960It would enable Alex to get a nice apartment, a used car and moreBesides, he could write in his spare timeAs the dollars were dancing in Alexs head, something cleared his sensesHe had dreamed of being a writer ?full timeThanks, but no, Alex said firmly and swiftly, Im going to stick it out and writeAfter Alex got off the phone, he pulled out everything he had: two cans of vegetables and 18 centsAlex put the cans and cents into a paper bag, saying to himself, Theres everything youve made of yourself so farIm not sure I ever felt so lowFinally his work was published in 1970Instantly he had the kind of fame and success that few writers ever experienceThe shadows had turned into focus of attentionThen one day, Alex found a box filled with things he had owned years beforeInside was a paper bag with two cans and 18 centsSuddenly he pictured himself working in that cold storage roomIt reminds Alex, and anyone with a dream, of the courage and persistence （坚毅） it takes to stay the course （持续到底） in the shadowland56Why did Alex give up his job?ABecause he didnt like the working conditionsBBecause he couldnt earn enough to make a livingCBecause he wanted to be a full-time writerDBecause he felt he had no potential in his job57What did Alex express when he answered the call?AHe refused the job offerBHe was willing to give them a handCHe expected them to pay him more moneyDHe would write in his spare time58Which of the following can summarize the passage best?ALook before you leapBTwo heads are better, than oneCHold on to your dream, and it will come trueDA bird in hand is worth two in the bushBDrinking Water: Bottled or From the Tap（水龙头）?In America, people will include a case or two of bottled water when buying the weeks groceries（日用杂货）When they are going to a soccer game or activity, its common for them to grab a cold bottle of water out of the fridge with themIn fact, Americans buy more bottled water than any other nation in the world, about 29 billion bottles a yearBut all these plastic bottles use a lot of fossil fuels and pollute the environmentIn order to make all the 29 billion bottles, producers use 17 million barrels of crude oil, which is enough to keep a million cars going for 12 monthsSo why dont people drink water straight from the tap? Some people have a strong belief that bottled water is better than water out of the tap, but thats not necessarily trueIn the US, the local governments make sure water from the tap is safeThere is also growing concern that chemicals in the bottles themselves may go into the waterPeople love the convenience of bottled waterBut maybe if they realized the problems it causes, they would try drinking from a glass at home or carrying water in a reusable steel container instead of plasticSome argue that plastic bottle recycling can helpRecycled bottles can be turned into items like carpeting or clothingUnfortunately, only one in six bottles is recycledThe rest make it to landfills（垃圾填坦场） or end as trash in other placesPlastic bottles take hundreds of years for them to disintegrateWater is important for you, so keep drinking itBut think about how often you use water bottles, and see if you can make a changeAnd yes, you can make a differenceRemember this: Recycling one plastic bottle can save enough energy to power a 60-watt light bulb for six hours59How many cars can be kept going for a year by the crude oil used to make 29 billion bottles?A100 BI,000 C100,000 D1,000,00060Why do Americans prefer bottled water?ABottled water is better than water from the tapBBottled water is cheaper than water from the tapCBottled water contains beneficial chemicals in itDBottled water is more convenient than water from the tap61What does the underlined word disintegrate in the fifth paragraph probably mean?ABe well recycled BBecome less poisonousCBreak into small pieces DGo down below a surface62The authors intention of writing this passage is to recommend AmericansAdrink more water from the tap Bsend plastic bottles to landfills.Cuse water bottles to power light bulbs Dbuy bottles filled with water from the tapCMoney is all surrounding usEvery day, we see it, use it, and it is on the tip of our tongueDid you ever stop to take into consideration where the money that you carry around every day comes from?Making new money is a very unique job and no easy taskIt has up to 65 steps When the money in circulation（流通） gets dirty and worn out, it is replaced with new money The old money is taken from banks and brought to places where it is destroyed Usually, the old money is burnedThe burned money is replaced by new paper moneyIf old money is being replaced, then new money is printed in a place called a mint（造币厂）Large sheets of paper are printed with many pictures of some currency （流通货币）These large sheets are cut into individual billsThe individual bills are then put together in big stacks and then sent to banksSometimes the mint will make a new bill with a new picture （portraits of statesman and places of interest are favoured） or a new colour. It is not easy for the government to make a new bill. It takes a long time, and there are many steps to go through before a new bill can be sent to banks, first, people in the government decide that a new kind of bill is needed Then, they ask and artist to design the new billA different artist cuts the new picture into a soft piece of metal called a dieThe dies are made and put onto large printing machinesThen, very special paper is used, which no one but the mint can haveAlong with this special paper, the mint also prints currency using special coloursAfter the dies print the new currency onto the paper, the bills are cut, stacked, and sent off to the banks63From the passage we know thatAbanks make new moneyBit takes 65 procedures to make new moneyCmints decide what kind of bill is neededDold money that is not used is forever stored in a special place64We can infer from the passage that a die is _ Asomething for dead peopleBa special machine that prints the moneyCa special piece of paper that the money is made from Da piece of metal that puts the picture on the money65Which of the following shows the right order of dealing with new money?New money is printed in a mintBills are cut from large sheets of special paperNew money is sent in large amounts to banksThe government decides to make new moneyABCD66Which of the following is NOT mentioned in the passage?AThe reason for making new moneyBThe processes of making a new billCThe amount of new money neededDThings used to make new money or a new bill DBeijing -（13, July） China sent up a new data relay satellite （数据中继卫星）, Tianlian I-02, on Monday at the Xichang Satellite Launch Centre in South-western Sichuan provinceThe new satellite will promote the countrys satellite communication network for space docking （对接）The satellite was launched on a Long-March-SC carrier rocket at 11:41 pm, sources at the centre told Xinhua News AgencyThe satellite separated from the rocket 26 minutes after its launch and was then successfully delivered into a geostationary transfer orbit （地球同步转移轨道）.Developed by the China Academy of Space Technology under the China Aerospace Science and Technology Corporation, the satellite is the countrys second data relay satelliteThe first, Tianlian I -01, was launched on April 252008The two satellites will form a network to improve communications between Chinas spacecraft and bases on Earth, according to the centreThey will also be used to help the nations first space docking, scheduled for the second half of this yearAs planned, China will launch space module Tiangong-I （天宫1号）, which was designed as a platform that will dock with an unmanned spaceship, Shenzhou, for the countys first space-docking mission this yearTwo more Shenzhou spaceships will dock with Tiangong-I next year, and one will be manned by two or three astronauts, according to China Manned Space Engineering Office, which was the main user of the Tianlian I series data relay satellitesThe new satellite can cover a greater area to track and command the countrys space vehicles in low-Earth orb
