We lived just inside the city limits in what was still a rural area. In the spring of 1948, when I was 6 years old, my parents bought a calf（小牛） to replace our cow, which had been killed the year before. So one day we drove to a local farm and returned with a white and brown calf we named Tubby. We didnt own a truck, so Tubby rode home in the backseat of Dads car with my 9-year-old brother, Steve, and me. As you can imagine, the trip was a lot of fun for us kids. Later that summer, Mom thought it would be cute to take a picture of me sitting on Tubbys back. All went well until the snap of the camera shutter sent Tubby charging off on a run, with me holding on for dear life. I lasted for about 30 feet before I hit the ground. Mom was quick enough to shoot a follow-up picture, so we had photos of me both on and off Tubby! When summer had passed, the day arrived for poor Tubby to fill our freezer. I must have been somewhere else with my Mom on the fateful day, because I have no memory of how it happened. All I knew was that the barn was empty, and that we had plenty of meat for dinners. I hadnt lived on a farm like my mother, so I didnt understand that what happened to Tubby was not unusual. Livestock arent meant to be pets, and most farm kids know and accept that truth. Whenever we had beef for dinner, I would tearfully, “Is this Tubby?” This went on for a couple of weeks until Dad had finally had enough and declared, “No more cows!” That made me feel a little better about poor Tubby.21.The writers parents bought Tubby so that _.A. they would have more cows in the future B. It would provide their children with milk. C. the family would have enough meat to eat D. they would no longer feel lonely on the farm.22. Which word can be used to describe the authors mom?A. Serious. B. Strong-willed. C. Careless D. Quick-minded.23. We learn from the passage that _.A. Steve was not so fond of Tubby as his younger brother. B. the author had much trouble with Tubby in the summer.C. the authors mom thought it natural to kill a cow for meat.D. the author was pleased to see their freezer filled with beef.24.

Participate in the research.C.Early one morning, more than a hundred years ago, an American inventor called Elias Howe finally fell asleep. He had been working all night on the design of a sewing machine but he had run into a very difficult problem: It seemed impossible to get the thread to run smoothly around the needle. Though he was tired, Howe slept badly. He turned and turned. Then he had a dream. He dreamt that he had been caught by terrible savages whose king wanted to kill him and eat him unless he could build a perfect sewing machine. When he tried to do so, Howe ran into the same problem as before. The thread kept getting caught around the needle. The king flew into the cage and ordered his soldiers to kill Howe. They came up towards him with their spears raised. But suddenly the inventor noticed something. There was a hole in the tip of each spear. The inventor awoke from the dream, realizing that he had just found the answer to the problem. Instead of trying to get the thread to run around the needle, he should make it run through a small hole in the center of the needle. This was the simple idea that finally made Howe design and build the first really practised sewing machine. Elias Howe was not the only one in finding the answer to his problem in this way. Thomas Edison, the inventor of the electric light, said his best ideas came into him in dreams. So did the great physicist Albert Einstein. Charlotte Bronte also drew in her dreams in writing Jane Eyre. To know the value of dreams, you have to understand what happens when you are asleep. Even then, a part of your mind is still working. This unconscious(无意识的), but still active part understands your experiences and goes to work on the problems you have had during the day. It stores all sorts of information that you may have forgotten or never have really noticed. It is only when you fall asleep that this part of the brain can send messages to the part you use when you are awake. However, the unconscious part acts in a special way. It uses strange images which the conscious part may not understand at first. This is why dreams are sometimes called “secret messages to ourselves”.28.According to the passage, Elias Howe was_.A. the first person we know of who solved problems in his sleepB. much more hard-working than other inventorsC. the first person to design a sewing machine that really workedw w w .D. the only person at the time who knew the value of dreams29The problem Howe was trying to solve was_.A. what kind of thread to use B. how to design a needle which would not breakC. where to put the needle D. how to prevent the thread from getting caught around the needle30.Thomas Edison is spoken of because_.A. he also tried to invent a sewing machine B. he got some of his ideas from dreamsC. he was one of Howes best friends D. he also had difficulty in falling asleep31.Dreams are sometimes called “secret messages to ourselves” because _.A. strange images are used to communicate ideas B. images which have no meaning are usedC. we can never understand the real meaning D. only specially trained people can understand themD.People can be addicted to(沉溺于) different things e.g. alcohol, drug, certain foods, or even television. People who have such an addiction are compulsive(强迫的):they have a very powerful psychological need that they feel they must satisfy. According to psychologists, many people are compulsive spenders. They feel that they must spend money. This compulsion, like most others, is impossible to explain reasonably. For compulsive spenders who buy on credit(以赊欠方式), charge accounts are even more exciting than money. In other words, compulsive spenders feel that with credit, they can do anything. Their pleasure in spending large amounts is actually greater than the pleasure that they get from the things they buy.There is even a special psychology of bargain hunting. To save money, of course, most people look for sales, low prices, and discounts. Compulsive bargain hunters, however, often buy things that they dont need just because they are cheap. They want to believe that they are helping their budgets(预算), but they are really playing an exciting game. When they can buy something for less than other people, they feel that they are winning. Most people, experts claim, have two reasons for their behavior: a good reason for the things that they do and the real reason.It is not only scientists, of course, who understand the psychology of spending habits, but also business people. Stores, companies, and advertisers use psychology to increase business. They consider peoples needs for love, power, or influence, their basic values, their beliefs and opinions, and so on in their advertising and sales methods.Psychologists often use a method called “behavior therapy(疗法)” to help individuals solve their personality problems. In the same way, they can help people who feel that they have problems with money.32. According to the psychologists, a compulsive spender is one who spends large amounts of money _.A. and takes great pleasure from what he or she buysB. in order to satisfy his or her basic needs in lifeC. just to meet his or her strong psychological needD. and feels he or she is cheated33. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the text? A. People spend money for exactly the same reason that they need to buy things.B. Business people and advertisers can use the psychology of peoples spending habits to increase sales.C. Business people understand the psychology of compulsive buying better than scientists do.D. Compulsive bargain hunters do not have problems with money.34. What is the text mainly about?A. The psychology of money-spending habits. B. The habits of compulsive spenders.C. A special psychology of bargain hunting.D. The use of the psychology of spending habits in business.35. From the text we may safely conclude that compulsivespenders or compulsive bargain hunters _.A. are really unreasonable B. need special treatmentC. are really beyond drugs D. can never get any help to solve their problems with money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。Cell Phones: Hang Up or Keep Talking Millions of people are using cell phones today.

The explosions around the world in mobile phone use make some health professionals worried. Some doctors are concerned that in the future many people may suffer health problems from the use of mobile phones. Mobile phone companies are worried about the negative publicity(负面报道)of such ideas. _37_ On the other hand, signs of change in the issues of the brain and head can be detected with modern scanning equipment. In one case, a traveling salesman had to retire at a young age because of serious memory loss. 38 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. 39 The answer is radiation(辐射).

Ill 41 the dishes!” For the next hour Dad did the dishes, singing songs like I Had a Hat When I Came In. I suppose it was 42 for a boys father to wear an apron but I never thought much of it 43 the day that Dad broke with tradition. “Tommy,” he said 44 . “There comes a time in every boys life when he must take on 45 . Starting today, I want you to do the dishes on Sunday morning so that your mother and I can work the word 46 in the paper together.” “You want me to do the dishes?” “ 47 wrong with taking over the dishes, Son?” I didnt taste a bit of 48 that day. Dad seemed in a merry mood as he described an excellent game. Everything grew quiet. My sister began to 49 the table. My brother was scraping(刮除) the last of the egg from his plate. My father 50 : “Lets go to read the paper, Hon.” “Arent you doing the dishes?” my mother asked. “Your oldest son has 51 offered,” replied my father. So this was 52 my life had come to. Ask me to run through a rainstorm. 53 me to ride the roller coaster backward. These things are what I would do. But I could never do those dishes. There was nothing 54 but to refuse. People often say there is a(n) 55 chemistry between a father and a son. Dad came back into the kitchen just as I was about to 56 out. He had loosened his tie and rolled up the sleeves of his shirt ready to 5
