a. he supports it very much. b. he thinks its a personal choice.c. he doesnt like this way of traveling. d. he thinks its only good for adults.cfirst day at schoolit was my first day at school in london and i was half-excited and half-frightened. on my way to school i wondered, what questions the other boys would ask me and practiced all the answers: i am nine years old. i was born here but i havent lived here since i was two. i was living in farley. its about thirty miles away. i came back to london two months ago. i also wondered if it was the rule for boys to fight strangers like me, but i was tall for my age. i hoped they would decide not to risk it.no one took any notice of me before school. i stood in the center of the playground, expecting someone to say hello, but no one spoke to me. my teacher was called mr. jones. there were 42 boys in the class, so i didnt stand out there, either, until the first lesson of the afternoon. mr. jones was very fond of charles dickens, so he asked several boys if they knew dickens birthplace, but no one guessed right. a boy called brian, the biggest in the class, said: timbuktu” and mr. jones went red in the face. then he asked me. i said: portsmouth” and everyone stared at me because mr. jones said i was right. this didnt make me very popular, of course. “he thinks hes clever, i heard brian say. after that, we went out to the playground to play football. i was in brians team, and he obviously had dickens in mind because he told me to go in goal. no one ever wanted to be the goalkeeper.hes big enough and useless enough; brian said when someone asked him why he had chosen me.as the boy kicked the ball hard along the ground to my right, i threw myself down quickly and saved it. all my team crowded round me. my bare knees were grazed and bleeding. brian took out a handkerchief and offered it to me.do you want to join my team? he said. at the end of the day, i was no longer a stranger.28. the writer prepared to answer all of the following questions except _. a. how old are you? b. where are you from? c. do you want to join my team? d. when did you come back to london?29. we can learn from the passage that _. a. boys were usually unfriendly to new students b. the writer was not greeted as he expected c. brian praised the writer for his cleverness d. the writer was glad to be a goalkeeper30. the underlined part i didnt stand out in paragraph 3 means that the writer was not _. a. noticeable b. nervous c. important d. surprised31. the writer was offered a handkerchief because _. a. he was in brians team b. he was no longer a new comer c. he was beginning to be acceptedd. he pushed a player on the other teamd what would you like to be when you grow up? a teacher? a doctor? an astronaut? what do you need to do to achieve your dream job? perhaps you think that studying well and then going on to work hard will get you successful career you want. we are constantly taught that our hard work will eventually pay off.but a government survey has shown that hard work is not the only thing that will help you to move up the ladder. two thirds of people believe that who you know matters more than what you know when it comes to social activity. so are the connections that you have more important than your education?76% of the people in the survey believed that family background is important in influencing your chances of success. they believe that if you are privileged（有特权的） from birth, you are more likely to have a successful career, especially if your family is wealthy(富有的). even if you dont have a privileged background, the people you know can still make a difference to your career. networking is a skill which is encouraged by many career advisers. some companies run networking workshops to try and encourage staff to meet other people, to communicate and build relationships(关系). its a valuable skill.but the survey also showed something quite interesting. although most people believed that networks are more important than education, many people put their own career success down to talent, rather than background. 41% of the people said that their parents income had influenced their life, but at the same time, another 41% believed that they had achieved their own success.so which is more important, what you know or who you know? it seems that by working hard and making lots of connections, the answer may be that both are very important.32. which of the following is closest in meaning to the underlined part?a. hope for the bestb. no pains, no gainsc. nothing is impossible d. practice makes perfect33. according to the government survey，the most important factor to help people move up the ladder is _.a. hard workb. educationc. social activity d. social relationship34. from the passage we can infer that the writer writes the article to _.a. encourage people to work hardb. make lots of social connectionsc. challenge the traditional beliefd. stress the importance of education35. which of the following is the best title for the passage?a. the way to successb. keep your dream in mindc. a wealthy and smooth careerd. a survey on peoples dreams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。public speaking trainingget a coach_36_， so get help. since there are about a billion companies out there all ready to offer you public speaking training and courses, here are some things to look for when deciding the training thats right for you.focus on positivesany training you do to become more effective at public speaking should always focus on the positive aspects of what you already do well. nothing can hurt confidence more than being told that you arent doing well._37_， so good public speaking training should develop those instead of telling you what you shouldnt do._38_if you find a public speaking course that looks as though its going to give you lots of dos and donts, walk away! your brain is so full of what youre going to be talking about. _39_.as far as were concerned, there are basically no hard and fast rules about public speaking.your audience can be your friends.you are a special person not a clonemost importantly, good public speaking training should treat you as a special one, with your own personal habits._40_.your training course should help you bring out your personality, not try to turn you into someone youre not.ayou arent like anybody elsebyou already do lots of things wellcturn your back on too many rulesdcheck the rules about dos and dontsewhatever the presentation, public speaking is toughfthe one thing you dont want is for them to fall asleepgso trying to force a whole set of rules into it will just make things worse第二部分 英语知识运用（共两节，满分55分）第一节（共20小题；每小题1.5分，满分30分）阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的四个选项（a、b、c、d）中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。a small boy at summer camp received a large package of cookies (饼干) in the mail from his mother. he ate a few, and then _41_ the rest under his bed. the next day, after lunch, he went to his tent to get a cookie. the box was _42_.that afternoon a camp teacher, who had been _43_ of the theft (失窃), saw another boy sitting behind a tree eating the stolen _44_. “that young man,” he said to himself, “must be taught not to _45_.”he returned to the group and met the boy _46_ cookies had been stolen. billy, he said, “i know who stole your cookies. will you _47_ me teach him a lesson?”“well, yes _48_ arent you going to punish him?” asked the puzzled boy.“no, that would only make him _49_ you,” the teacher explained. “i want you to call your _50_ and ask her to send you another box of cookies.”the boy did _51_ the teacher asked and a few days _52_ received another box of cookies in the mail.“now,” said the teacher, “the boy who stole your cookies is down by the lake.” go down there and _53_ your cookies with him.“but,” protested (抗议) the boy, “hes the _54_.”“i know. but _55_ it - see what happens.”half an hour later the camp teacher saw the two come up the hill,_56_. the boy who had stolen the cookies was _57_ to get the other to accept his jackknife (折叠小刀) in _58_ for the stolen cookies, and the victim was just _59_ the gift from his new friend, saying that a few old cookies werent that _60_ anyway.41. a. raisedb. placedc. gaved. offered42. a. brokenb. destroyedc. missedd. gone43. a. warnedb. remindedc. spokend. told44. a. cookiesb. applesc. cakesd. grapes45. a. apologizeb. robc. steald. shout46. a. whob. whosec. whomd. which47. a. watchb. permitc. helpd. allow48. a. orb. soc. andd. but49. a. hateb. lovec. missd. respect50. a. fatherb. motherc. sister d. grandma51. a. sinceb. ifc. whend. as52. a. pastb. agoc. laterd. before53. a. shareb. discussc. devoted. spread54. a. friendb. thiefc. ownerd. winner55. a. tryb. forgetc. enjoyd. believe56. a. face to faceb. heart to heart c. eye to eye d. arm in arm57. a. failingb. managingc. decidingd. trying58. a. paymentb. returnc. orderd. thank59. a. acceptingb. throwingc. refusing d. praising60. a. simpleb. importantc. stupid d. harmful第二节（共20小题；满分25分）wang kun and wang wei had dreamed of taking a bike trip for a long ti
