and to give us a trusting look with those huge eyesOnce they hit their first part of clean water flowing straight from the sea, the mum gave us a wave with her tail and off they swam into the distanceIn the excitement it had felt like only a few minutes, but we had been with those wonderful animals for almost an hour and a halfThat was the simple and lasting beauty of the dayNearly four decades later, I still look back fondly to that golden day at sea36The author says I m so glad I did （ in Para2） because _Ahe witnessed the whole process of fishingBhe enjoyed the beauty of the calm seaChe experienced the rescue of the whalesDhe spent the weekend with his family37The mother whale failed to help her baby because _Ashe had stayed in the polluted water for too longBthe whirlpools she had made were not big enoughCshe had no other whales around to turn to for helpDthe waves pushed her baby in the wrong direction38What is the theme of the story?ASaving lives brings people a sense of happinessBFishing provides excitement for childrenCIts necessary to live in harmony with animalsDIts vital to protect the whale in the oceanBBritons Learn to ForgiveLEEDS, England A Leeds University psychology （心理学） professor is teaching a course to help dozens of Britons forgive their enemies“The hatred we hold within us is a cancer,” Professor Ken Hart said, adding that holding in anger can lead to problems such as high blood pressure and heart diseaseMore than 70 people have become members in Harts first 20-week workshop in London a course he says is the first of its kind in the worldThese are people who are sick and tired of living with a memoryThey realize their bitterness is a poison they think they can pour out, but they end up drinking it themselves, said Canadian-born HartThe students meet in groups of eight to ten for a two-hour workshop with an adviser every fortnightThe course, ending in July, is expected to get rid of the cancer of hatred in these people“People have lots of negative attitudes towards forgiveness,” he said, “People confuse forgiveness with forgettingForgiveness means changing from a negative attitude to a positive one”Hart and his team have created instructions to provide the training needed“The main idea is to give you guidelines on how to look at various kinds of angers and how they affect you, and how to change your attitudes towards the person you are angry with,” said Norman Claringbull, a senior expert on the forgiveness projectHart said he believes forgiveness is a skill that can be taught, as these people “want to get free of the past”39From this passage we know that _Ahigh blood pressure and heart disease are caused by hatredBhigh blood pressure can only be cured by psychology professorsCwithout hatred, people will have less trouble connected with blood pressure and heartDpeople who suffer from high blood pressure and heart disease must have many enemies40In Harts first 20-week workshop, people there can _Ameet their enemies Bchange their attitudes towards bitternessCenjoy the professors speech Dlearn how to quarrel with others41If you are a member in Harts workshop, youll _Apay much money to Hart Bgo to the workshop every nightCattend a gathering twice a month Dpour out everything stored in your mind42The author wrote this passage in order to _Apersuade us to go to Harts workshop Btell us the news about Harts workshopCtell us how to run a workshop like Harts Dhelp us to look at various kinds of angersCBeginning college is exciting: new ideas to explore, new challenges to meet and many decisions to makeYour future begins hereHowever，you will find college life is different from your previous school environmentMany of us can be easily overwhelmed（压垮）by the details of running a well-balanced lifeWhile some of us may have the know-how, I guess there are more of us who can benefit from learning about the experiences of others who have walked the college halls before youThe following you may find of use about life on campus* Plan wellThere are so many new things to do at a new college or universityGive yourself time to make new friends and become familiar with the campus, but dont forget why you are thereGive some time for social activities and manage your time wisely* If you dont have a “system” for planning your time now （like a day timer, a computer data book）, get oneMost of all, dont depend on your memory* Dont miss the guidelinesThe restrictions, rules and regulations of all kinds can usually be found in your student handbookConsider them well-balanced food for thoughtWhat dates are important?

One of the common problems with making excuses is that people, especially young people, get the idea that its okay not to be totally honest all the timeThere is a corollary（直接推论）to that: if good excuse is “good” even if it isnt honest, then where is the place of the truth?47According to the author, what is a sign of a mans maturity?ADoing things his own wayBBearing responsibility for his mistakesCMaking as few mistakes as possibleDThinking seriously about his wrongdoing48Which of the following is N0T based on common sense?AA man tries to take charge of everything in a large companyBA student goes out with an umbrella in stormy weatherCA companys next move follows a good planDA lawyer acts on fine judgments49What is the authors opinion about a good excuse?AMaking a good excuse is sometimes a better policyBInventing a good excuse needs creative ideasCA good excuse is as rewarding as honestyDBitter truth is better than a good excuse50What would be the best title for his passage?AA Mirror of Human NatureBTo Blame or to ForgiveCA Mark of MaturityDTruth or Excuse四、任务型阅读（共10小题；每小题l分，满分l0分）请认真阅读下列短文,并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填入一个最恰当的单词。注意：每个空格只填1个单词。请将答案写在答题卡上相应题号的横线上。Literature is a term used to describe written as well as spoken materialGenerally speaking, it is often used to describe anything from creative imagination, including works of poetry, drama and fictionThen why read literature, since it is often imaginary and seems unconnected with real life?A lot of us read literature for pleasure and relaxationIts always pleasant to read some interesting books, such as comedies and novels, in our spare timeIn a modern life full of pressure, it is our common desire to read some imaginary works and seek relaxation from the stress in lifeReading literature is more than fun; it also enables us to acquire knowledgeAs a general rule, literature represents a language or a people, and it often gives us an insight（洞察力）into the tradi
