I waited anxiously, knowing that once I received it I would know how good a writer I really am.When the paper arrived at my classroom, I nearly knocked down five of my classmates to get to the first paper. With the school paper in my hands, I returned to my seat. About a month earlier, I had handed in one of, what I believed to be, my best stories. I named it Symbol of Success. The head of the English Department at my school, Professor Cullen, had said that she would include some reviews (评论) of students stories in the latest school paper. Professor Cullen was known for her picky criticism（批评）. Pleasing her was very hard but I wanted to be the first to do so.I sat at the edge of my seat as I read through the other story reviews. There wasnt one story that got more than three stars. I became calm and wasnt anxious to know my review. It was long after that I heard someone shout out “Five stars？！ Seriously！” from behind me. I turned around and saw the shocked expression of Genes face, “Peter, your story got five stars！” I couldnt believe what I was hearing. I turned my attention back to my story and saw the five stars at the end of the review that I had not read yet. I looked through the review written by Professor Cullen. She wrote that I had a gift for story writing.I was proud that I achieved what I thought was impossible. For so long I believed I wasnt as good as I thought I was and that my talent was not enough to cover up my lack of writing skills. But this review proved that I was truly a good writer and that there was a future ahead of me in the field of fiction writing. The review and the five stars meant the world to me. Those five stars became the symbol of my success.21How did the writer get the school paper?A. His teacher gave it to him first.B. The publisher sent it to him firstC. His friend helped him get the first one.D. He rushed ahead to get the first one by himself.22What can we learn about Professor Cullen?A. She was very kind to everyone.B. She seldom praised her students.C. She was very cold to her students.D. She was hated by her students.23What did Professor Cullen think of Peters story?A. She thought highly of it.B. She thought it was just soso.C. She thought it was extremely bad.D. She doubted if it was written by him.BWelcome to Pocono WhitewaterTheres something fun here at Pocono Whitewater for every level of adventurer!

The farm-to-table idea has become more and more popular in recent years. But there is also a group that brings “table to farm”. This traveling group is called Outstanding in the Field. It says its goal is to reconnect people to the land and to honor local farmers by creating a sort of restaurant without walls.Jim Denevan got the idea for this ten years ago. “We want to bring people closer to where food comes from and hear the stories directly from farmers, walk around and get to know farms, which are important.” He recently prepared tables for more than a hundred people at Briars Farmstead in Virginia. He and his eight-member group arrived the night before. Chefs (厨师) from a local restaurant helped cook the dinner. “I wanted to make the idea work, so I decided to cross the country. I went all the way across the United States and set tables on farms and on beaches, and all the places where food comes from,” said Jim Denevan. Guests bring their own plates to the meal. When they arrive, the farmer shows them around. The tour of the farm ends at the dinner table. The meats in the courses and the vegetables all come from nearby farms. Alex Bogel is one of the guests. “It is also especially wonderful to sit at a big table with all these people. The feeling of sharing things and belonging to a group is wonderful.” Jim Denevan and his team have served almost thirteen thousand people. He plans to expand(扩张) it. They plan to go to Asia, Africa and Australia and back to South America. 28. The purpose of the group Outstanding in the Field is to_. A. encourage farmers to do their work in a scientific wayB. get people to know more about farms and farmers C. help local farmers to make more money D. bring healthy food to peoples dinner tables29. We can learn from the passage that Jim Denevan_.A. got the table-to-farm idea by accidentB. doesnt like having meals in restaurantsC. was the first to come up with the farm-to-table ideaD. worked very hard to carry out the table-to-farm idea30. Jim Denevan and his eight-member group _.A. do all the preparation work for the meals on the farmB. pay for all the things that are needed for a big mealC. have made much money from the idea D. have already gone to many countries 31. What impresses（使印象深刻）Alex Bogel most on the farm?A. The number of guests from other cities.B. The delicious foods which were served. C. The kinds of vegetables that are grown by the farmers. D. The experience of eating together with many strangers.DAre you the type of person who always says yes? However, its OK to say no! People are still going to like you. They may even respect you more because they know you are honest.Im not saying that you should say no to someone who really needs your help. Im talking about turning down the meeting that you really do not want to go to or the birthday party that you dont want to be a guest at.Think for a moment how you feel when you say yes to something that you really dont want to do. If youre like what I once was, you cant sleep at night and you think about it too much. It weighs on your mind. You try to find ways out. If you really want to go, you will not have all of these thoughts.So, why not just say no from the beginning? Maybe you think if you dont show up at the meeting (by the way, it is not one you must go to), your boss isnt going to like you or your co-workers wont respect you. Maybe you feel as if your mom, dad or sisters wont love you as much if you dont do everything for them. If these people are your true friends, family members, or a good boss, they will like or love you the same. People treat you the way you teach them to, and if youre someone who always says yes then thats what theyre expecting.You need to do what is right for you. Of course we do have real responsibility in life to meet, but we do not have to do everything others want us to do. 32. In the writers opinion, _ . A. we must do what is right for other peopleB. it is not always easy to win friends trustC. learning to say no is very important in our lifeD. saying yes is the best way to win others respect33. The underlined sentence “It weighs on your mind” in the third paragraph probably means “_”.A. you try to find excuses to refuse itB. you are worried about it very muchC. you are too busy to care about it D. it fills your mind with good ideas 34. According to the writer, if you always say yes, _. A. your friends will soon get tired of you B. your family members will love you more C. you will have little chance of success in your life D. people will expect you to do what they want you to do 35. We can learn from the passage that the writer_. A. seldom said no to people around him/her before B. gets along badly with his/her boss and co-workers nowC. always makes his/her parents angry by refusing them D. thinks it his/her own responsibility to help those in need 第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）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。_36_ If you use it often and in the right ways, you will become a more skilled thinker and your ability to focus will increase.

Almost at the same time the glass on the window was broken. The policemen hurried into the room and caught the robber.“Aileen, the greeting was so good that it made us take 59 right away,” said Bull, “because weve already known that your 60 was killed in a robbery half a year ago.”Therefore, during some urgent moments in our life, it is our calmness and intelligence(智慧) that can make a big difference.41.
