This was not unusual, since my back has given me problems for years, but today no _1_ or moving would loosen it up.

When I did, _3_, I saw that my shoes, like my body, were showing _4_ of wear(磨损). From the split in one shoe, I knew that it wouldnt be too long _5_ I had to replace this pair. I only wished I could replace my back along with them.Later, after _6_ the dogs, watching the sunrise and eating breakfast, I was feeling a lot _7_ inside. My back pain had _8_ too, and my smile had returned. It was then _9_ I remembered a letter a friend had sent me recently. Inside, she had posted a(n) _10_ picture of an old, worn-out pair of work boots, sitting on the ground. Their leather (皮革) was _11_ and their laces (鞋带) were worn, but they still looked _12_, because inside, someone had planted a beautiful bunch of flowers. The flowers had grown tall and strong, _13_ their curious container. This picture reminded me again that _14_ my body might have felt like a worn-out pair of shoes at times, inside it was a _15_ that continued to grow every day in love, peace and happiness.At some point in your life you need to _16_ who you really are.

My own opinion suggest quite opposite.Last year, I bought Guitar Hero for our 14-year-old son, Jack. Jack quickly mastered the process and entered a hard period of playing the game.A few months later, while I was away on tour, a couple of his friends came around with a real electric guitar. Playing Guitar Hero had taught them how to play along the track(声道). Now they wanted to see if they could apply that to the real thing. Jacks friends taught him how to play along to his favorite songs using just his index finger (食指)on the bass string. He got it right away.Guitar Hero had helped him over the first difficulty for guitar playershow to strum(拨弄) the strings with one hand while making chord(和弦) shapes with the other. He never plays Guitar Hero now, preferring to rock out in the garage with his mates.Despite my attempts at getting him to learn an instrument, it was Guitar Hero that taught him the basics of playing and built up his confidence to the degree that he was able to make a recognizable sound the first time he played it.So lets not complain about a game that encourages kids to become music fans and, in our sons case, gives them the basic skills needed to learn how to play the guitar.21. Whats Bill Wymans attitude towards music video games?A. Curious B. Supportive. C. Negative. D. Unconcerned.22. Which statement is TRUE about Jacks first playing with a real electric guitar?A. He did it successfully. B. He taught his friends how to play.C. He didnt know how to play along to a song.D. He didnt know how to strum the instruments.23. What can we infer from Jacks case?A. Parents should encourage their kids. B. Computer games are harmful to kids.C. Kids should learn an instrument. D. Guitar Hero is a useful game.24. Whats the best title for the text?A. A new computer game B. The story of a guitaristC. Arguing for Guitar Hero D. The best way to play guitar BEndangered languages are languages that wouldnt exist any longer, much like endangered species of plants or animals. Languages are considered to be endangered when parents are no longer teaching the language to their children and are not using it actively in everyday life. A language is considered to nearly disappear when it is spoken by only a few elderly native speakers. The world faces a lot of challenges in order to protect different kinds of languages. Of the more than 6,912 languages, half may be in danger of disappearing in the next several decades. It is caused by many reasons: small numbers of speakers, the regular use of other languages, attitudes towards their languages, moving of the younger population, government policies, and languages used in education and so on. A language may lack important things such as a body of literature, and people who read and write it. A language may also lack prestige (声望) and support of its speakers. The survival of a language is also threatened when speakers move to other areas where different languages are spoken, or when government policies improve the use of a specific language in school, official business and the media. These situations encourage people to learn the wider-known language and may cause them, especially the young, to stop using their mother tongue. Often those speaking lesser-known languages will choose to learn a more prestigious language with the hope of greater economic opportunities. Most of the worlds parents are teaching their children English, French, Spanish, Chinese, Arabic, Russian or some other main languages instead of their own languages for social and economic reasons.25.Whats the main idea of this passage?A. Languages in the world. B. Reasons why languages become endangered.C. What an endangered language is. D. Languages spoken by few speakers.26. We can infer that the best way to help an endangered language survive is to _.A. forbid the speakers to move about B. pass laws to protect the language C. raise the salaries of the people who speak the language D. teach the language to young children and encourage people to speak it often27. All of the following about languages are true EXCEPT _.A. many languages will be probably endangered in this century B. government policies have a big effect on languages C. the endangered language is a language that is spoken by a few people D. languages are related to their speakers social and economic positionCThey tell us when to get up or when were running late for work and whether we are in danger of missing our favorite TV program. But while our daily activities rely on clocks that tell us the time, science is discovering that our well-being is influenced by a very different kind of timepiece. Circadian rhythms-the human bodys own internal(体内的) clock-have a powerful influence on our health and behavior. They are programmed from birth and control functions ranging from temperature and blood pressure to sleep patterns.In recent years researchers have also discovered that this built-in mechanism（内在机制）can influence everything from the way we react to medicines to how well we learn music.The latest example, from experts at Harvard University in the US, shows that the human body clock can even influence whether or not we are likely to tell the truth. Researchers found it was easier for people to tell lies in the afternoon because, as they were tired, the self control that would normally prevent them from lying started to break down. Tiredness made it easier for them to tell lies-especially if it meant they got a financial reward at the end.“The body clock has a great effect on us all,” says Professor Jim Horne from the Sleep Research Centre at Loughborough University. “Most people tend to feel good around late morning and then decline in the early afternoon. But the time most of us will feel our sharpest is between 6 pm and 8 pm. Thats because sleepiness tends to build up throughout the day. By early evening our body clock kicks in to wake us up. One reason may be to ensure we get home safely. When our ancestors(祖先) were coming home after hunting all day their internal clocks kicked in to get them home in one piece.”So what effects do circadian rhythms have and whats the best time of day to take advantage of them?28. The underlined word “They” in the first paragraph refers to .A. our clocksB. scientists and expertsC. our daily routinesD. circadian rhythms29. The research referred to in Paragraph 3 found that people tend to .A. tell lies when they are tiredB. tell lies if they are rewardedC. get angry as they become tired D. break down because they are tired30. According to the passage, when are people most quick-thinking?A. In the morning.B. Around midday.C. In the late afternoon.D. In the early evening.31. What information will the writer probably present following the last paragraph?A. Some practical suggestions to prevent people from lying.B. Examples of how the human body clocks control the body.C. Examples of the most suitable time to do different activities.D. An explanation of how the human body clock controls the body.V. 单句改错 （共10小题，每题1分，共10分）1.
