During the life there, they realize that a family gathering should be about forming connections and taking time to consider ones place in the family, in the community and even in the world.The Human ComedyMaybe as the finest film about the US “home front” during World War Two, The Human Comedy is a portrait of a family dealing with life after the oldest son is drafted into military service (兵役）. Mickey Rooney plays the younger son missing his older brother but trying to get on with his life in high school.Miracle on 34th StreetThe Christmas classic was released in 1947, but it essentially set the stage for the 1950s. Its about the birth of the post-war consumer culture, and how affection for family and friends can be best expressed by the act of spending money.Mary PoppinsSometimes a family needs to make a change but the Banks family is definitely in a rut. George seems to care more about his banking job than his wife and children. He needs to learn that sometimes all you need is a laugh for a laughs sake, tuppence(两便士) to feed the birds and the time to fly a kite. In the end, his change is as powerful as Ebenezer Scrooges.Star Wars: Episode IV A New HopeStar Wars is about what happens after you make the choice to leave home for good. Of course, for Luke Skywalker, the choice to “take the first step into a larger world” is made for him when his family is killed. But his process of going out into the universe and discovering himself also involves gathering a new family.21.Who of the following acted in one of the above films?A.Mickey Rooney.C.Luke Skywalker.B.Frank Capra.D.Ebenezer Scrooge.22.Which film attracts people loving Christmas most?A.Lost Horizon.B.Mary Poppins.C.Miracle on 34th Street.D.Star Wars: Episode IV A New Hope.23.The passage is written to_.A.advertise some new films.B.interest foreign film lovers.C.present some film standards.D.recommend some family films.BA small town in southwest Britain is banning plastic bags in an attempt to help the environment and cut wastea step that environmentalists believe is a first for Europe.Shopkeepers in Modbury, population 1,500, agreed to stop handing out disposable plastic bags to customers on Saturday. They said paper sacks and cloth carrier bags would be offered instead.Last month, San Francisco became the first U.S city to ban plastic grocery bags. Internationally, laws to discourage the use of plastic bags have been passed in parts of South Africa and Ireland, where governments either tax shoppers who use them or fine companies that hand them out. Bangladesh already bans them, and so do at least 30 remote Alaskan villages.Modbury, about 225 miles southwest of London, has also declared a bag amnesty(宽限期), allowing local people to hand in plastic bags that have piled up at home. They will be sent for recycling.The Modbury ban was the idea of Rebecca Hosking, who saw the effect of bags on marine life while working in the Pacific as a wildlife camerawoman. She said response(反应) in the town so far had been “really positive”.“Modbury is quite an old-fashioned town and a lot of people have wicker baskets to go out shopping anyway,” Hosking told Sky News Television.The Worldwatch Institute, an environment research agency, states that 100 billion plastic bags are thrown away each year in the United States alone. More than 500 are used yearly around the world.24.What was Rebecca Hosking?A.lawyer. B.An environmentalist. C.A sailor. D.A photographer.25.The underlined word “disposable” in the passage probably means_.A.acceptable B.valuable C.throw-away D.long-lasting26.It can be inferred from the passage that _.A.most of the people in Modbury continue to use plastic bagsB.fewer and fewer plastic bags will be used in the worldC.San Francisco is the first city to ban plastic bags in the worldD.most countries in the world have passed laws to ban plastic bags27.Which of the following would be the best title of the passage?A.Environment ProtectionB.Big Cities Banning Plastic BagsC.Effect of Plastic Bags on Sea AnimalsD.British Town Banning Plastic BagsCAn allowance(零花钱) is an important tool for teaching kids how to budget(预算), save and make their decisions. Children remember and learn from mistakes when their own dollars are lost or spent foolishly.How large an allowance is appropriate? Experts say there is not a right amount. Actual amount differs from region to region, and from family to family.To set an appropriate allowance for your child, work up a weekly budget. Allow for entertainment expenses such as movies and snacks. Next, include everyday expenses such as lunch money, bus fare, school supplies. “If you make the child responsible for these bills,” says Josephine Swanson, a consumer specialist, “he or she will learn to budget for necessary expenditures.”Finally, add some extra money to make saving possible. If you can, keep your childs allowance in line with that of his friends. A child whose purchasing power falls away below his peers can feel left out.It can be tough but avoid excusing your children when they make a mistake with their allowance. When Brooke Stephens was ten and growing up in Jacksonville, her mother gave her $1.75 which was for bus fare and lunch. “If you lost your money,” Brookes mother told her, “you walk home.”One week the girl spent all her allowance in a candy store; then she called home for a ride. “Mom made me walk home,” recalls Stephens, now a financial planner in Brooklyn. “At first I was angry. But I finally realized that she was trying to teach me an important lesson.”Experts advise that an allowance should not be tied directly to daily chores. Kids should help around the houses not because they get paid for it but because they share responsibilities as members of a family. You might, however, pay a child for doing extra jobs at home, which can develop his or her initiative.28.Which of the following is the possible title of the passage?A.How to develop a childs initiative.B.How to work up an amount of pocket money.C.How to teach a child to save money.D.How to teach a child about money.29.It can be inferred from the passage that if a child is given an allowance, he or she may _.A.spend all the money very soonB.be spoiled and finally ruinedC.feel responsible and careful about moneyD.lost the money and can not return home30. In Paragraph 4, the words “his peers” refer to _.A.his parentsB.his teachersC.his financial expertsD.his friends31.The author implies in the passage that _.A.paying children for their housework is no goodB.a childs initiative can be developed if he or she is paid for all the houseworkC.children dont feel lost or lonely if they have no pocket moneyD.children may learn to put aside some money if they are given a great amount of pocket moenyDWhen your parents advise you to “get an education” in order to raise your income, they tell you only half the truth. What they really mean is to get just enough education to provide manpower（人力资源） for your society, but not so much that you prove an embarrassment to your society.Get a high school diploma, at least. Without that, you will be occupationally dead unless your name happens to be George Bernard Shaw or Thomas Alva Edison, and you can successfully dropout in grade school.Get a college degree, if possible. With a BA, you are on the launching pad. But now you have to start to put on the brakes. If you go for a masters degree, make sure it is an MBA, and only from a first-rate university. Beyond this, the famous law of diminishing returns begins to take effect. Do you know, for instance, that heavy truck drivers earn more a year than full professors? Yes, the average 2020 salary for those truckers was $240,000, while the full professor managed to average just $230,930.A Ph.D is the highest degree you can get but except in a few specialized fields such as physics or chemistry where the degree can quickly be turned to industrial or commercial purposes, you are, facing a dark future. There are more Ph.Ds unemployed or underemployed in this country than in any other part of the world by far.If you become a doctor in geography or history or anthropology or political science orworst of allin philosophy, you run the risk of becoming overeducated for our national demands.Thousands of doctors are selling shoes, driving cars, waiting on table, and endlessly filling out applications month after month. They may also take a job in some backwater(闭塞)high school or college that pays much less than the doorkeeper earns.Income and education are closely related. Far enough, that is, to make you useful to the gross national product, but not so far that nobody can turn much of a profit on you.32.According to the writer, what the society expects of education is to turn out people who _A.will become loyal citizens to a nation.B.can always take good care of themselves.C.will not be a shame to society or their families.D.can meet the demands as a source of manpower.33.If you are as gifted as Bernard Shaw or Edison _A.you can get a high school diploma without difficulty.B.you can be professionally successful without a diploma.C.the least you should do is to get a diploma.D.you will be successful in grade school.34.Many Ph.Ds are out of work because _A.they are of little commercial value to the society.B.they prefer easy jobs with more money.C.there are fewer jobs in high school.D.they are wrongly educated.35.What can we learn from the passage?A.The higher your education level is, the more money youll earn.B.If you are educated, you may make things difficult for the society.C.One must think carefully before going for a masters degree.D.Bernard Shaw finished high school, so did Edison.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。How to be healthy when your family isntTrying to eat healthily and get enough exercise can be difficult when your family refuse to get healthy with you. 36 Tell your family about your decision. 37 You will need their encouragement and support, even if they are not interested in joining you.

When exams were approaching, she was more _55_ than ever about everyone doing well. Many of her previous students scored high, and so she _56_ the same from us. Day after day there were students in the classroom _57_ problems. When it was time for our big test, I knew I was ready. I walked out of that test with my head _58_.
