replies the fisherman. be kind, says the soul. give me your heart. my heart is for my mermaid. go! can i not also love? the soul tries again. go! you are not important to me, cries the fisherman. he takes the little knife and he cuts his shadow away from his feet. the shadow rises and stands before him. the shadow is the same size as the fisherman. go! says the fisherman. i dont want to see you again. no, replies the soul. i want to meet you again: how?

mold(霉菌)can grow on almost all kinds of food. mold is usually green, white, black or grey. mold makes food soft and changes its color. moldy food tastes quite bad and its not safe to eat. if you find mold in soft food, just throw it away. soft food, such as bread, tomatoes or hot dogs, usually contains(包含)water. this allows mold to easily grow below its surface. bacteria(细菌)can also grow along with it. but its easy to remove mold from hard food. the mold cant grow very deeply inside this kind of food. according to the bbc, you should cut about 2.5 cm around and below the mold to remove it. its ok to cut the moldy parts out of hard food and eat the rest. but if the food is completely covered with mold, you should still throw it away. most kinds of mold are bad for us. but some kinds of mold can be used to make food. for example, penicillium(青霉菌)can be used to make many types of cheeses, such as blue cheese. these cheeses are safe to eat and theyre quite delicious as well.45. if you find mold on a tomato, . a. it is safe to eat it b. you can cut off the moldy part and eat the rest c. you should throw it away d. you can boil it in hot water first and then eat it46. which of the following is true about mold?

when none of our shirts and jeans would fit us. when do we stop eating candies and chocolates? when all of our teeth have fallen off when do we realize that we need to stop smoking? when our lungs(肺)have gone bad. we see the warning signs and signals when things get rough and difficult. the only time most of us ever learn about unlocking our self-improvement power is when the whole world is falling apart. we think and feel this way because it is not easy to change, but change becomes more painful(疼痛的)when we dont notice it. change will happen, like it or hate it. at one point or another, we are all going to finally unlock our self-improvement power not because the world says so, but because we realize its for our own good. happy people dont just accept change; they embrace(拥抱)it. unlocking our self-improvement power means unlocking ourselves out of the box of thought that is just the way we are. it is such a poor excuse for people who fear change. jane always tells everyone that she doesnt have the courage to be around groups of people. she heard her family tell the same things about her to other people. over the years, that is what jane has believed. every time a great crowd come, she steps back and locks herself up in a room. jane not only believes in her story, but lives it! self-improvement may not be everybodys favorite word, but if we look at things in a different way, we might have greater chances of enjoying the whole process(过程)instead of counting the days until we are fully improved. three sessions in a week at the gym would result in a healthier life. reading books every day would build up knowledge. and only when we are enjoying the whole process of unlocking our self-improvement power will we realize that were beginning to take things light and become happy.49. the writer mentions the three questions in paragraph 2 to show that . a. we learn our lessons when we experience pain b. we are grateful for the problems we meet c. life fails us when we get into the wrong way d. life is a long journey full of ups and downs50. what is the key to solving janes problem? a. she needs to remember why she started. b. she has to know how to get on with people. c. she has to realize she is not what she is in her story. d. she needs to understand the importance of confidence.51 .the writer probably agrees that . a. the world tells us how to improve ourselves b. people change when they find it easy to do that c. welcoming change in life is a drive to become better d. enjoying the process of self-improvement makes life harder52. which of the following would be the best title for the passage? a. is it important to take things light? b. to hold on to the last moment or to give up? c. is it necessary to embrace challenges? d. to free ourselves out of the box or to stay in it?四、信息还原(共5小题:每小题1分，满分5分) 根据对话内容，从对话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。greg: welcome to the program, trina travel! trina: thank you, greg. 53 greg: where have you been lately?trim: 54 i saw the terra cotta army there.greg:ive heard about the terra cotta soldiers. theyre underground.trim: they are amazing. each soldier is different.greg: really! 55 trina: there could be more than 8,000 of them.greg: 56 trim: i ate dumplings.greg: 57 trim: yes! i enjoyed a dumpling banquet(宴会).greg: i love dumplings. maybe i need to go to xian.trim: you do! you would enjoy it.a. i just came back from xian, china.b. dumplings?c. why did you go there?d. im glad to be here.e. how many soldiers are there?f. i will go to xian next week.g. what else did you do in xian?第卷(四大题，共51分)五、单词拼写(共10小题;每小题1分，满分10分) 根据下列句子及所给汉语注释或上下文语境，在答题卷上标有题号的横线上，写出空缺处各单词的正确形式。每空只写一词。58. it was only an hour later that he discovered his (枪)was missing.59. it is important to keep (镇静的)when you are in danger.60. the list of the (获胜者)will be announced tomorrow.61. her novels are very (高度)praised.62. not only jack but also his brother (致力于)their energies to writing films.63. you are so lazy! this is the (不整洁的)room i have ever seen.64. audrey hepburn was (误认为) for a real princess.65.she likes reading books and her classmates call her a bookworm. dont at her. she is just hard-working.66.i failed the english exam again. dont worry. you can achieve success your effort.67.what do you think of david?
