It seemed as if I didnt blend in （融入）with my classmates, and I found myself struggling academically. I searched to find some help in the college, but wasnt able to find much.My experience made me realize that there was a need for a group who could help the non-traditional students become successful and be better used to college life. I worked to help ESU (educational service unit) create such a group. We have to deal with study, family and our jobs at the same time. I wanted to provide resources to help make the change easier and less scary than my own experience was.The group I set up has now grown to over seventy members who help old students and support one another. Were currently working on a program to provide free babysitting for any college student that might need childcare. This would make things like studying in the library during the final weeks much easier.Helping to found this student organization makes me feel wonderful inside. I would love to know that by forming this group, it has helped so many non-traditional students on their college journey. Success can be measured in many different ways. I measure my success by helping others and giving back when I can. My grandmother often told me the world would be a better place if we cared about and helped each other.

Forced to quit school in the third grade to take odd jobs, he kept the secret close to his chest, only telling his late wife. Henrys granddaughter, Marlisa, told reporters how he used tricks, like waiting for others to order at restaurants first, to avoid the issue.A family dispute in his nineties, she said, aroused his desire for education. “He signed a document he could not read about where he was going to live,” Marlisa said. Starting with his name, he eventually moved on to the ABCs and childrens books. He put them down since his wife fell ill. After the tragic loss of his wife, he went back to reading and began to log his life. He wrote about his familys voyage from Portugal to the US, how he went on to captain a boat, and his many journeys at sea.His life stories have become so popular that nearly 800 copies were sold in the first two weeks after the books release. One thousand more have been printed as requests for the book flood in as far as Germany. And now even Hollywood producers have approached Mr. Henry about buying the rights to his life stories for a big screen adaptation.The family also now has a book agent and a deal in the works to publish a second edition. Meanwhile, the family says they are reconnecting and closer than ever as a result of Henrys late-life efforts. “Everyone has a story, and it teaches that when youre down, never give up.” Marlisa said.28When did Henry begin writing his life story?A. After his wife passed away.B. Before his wife passed away.C. When he was at the age of 91.D. After he retired from work.29Which of the following is TRUE according to the text?A. Henry didnt love his wife.B. A Hollywood producer wishes to make a movie out of Henrys book.C. Henry began his reading with some famous novels.D. Henrys book was well-received by Americans and he made a lot of money.30How did Henrys family benefit from the 2nd edition?A. The family got known in the US.B. His family moved from Portugal to the US.C. The family ties were rebuilt and strengthened.D. His family spread abroad.31What message can Henrys story give us?A. Writing can make people rich.B. A person should write his story.C. One is never too old to learn.D. Everything comes to him who waits.DAs more and more people speak the global languages of English, Chinese, Spanish, and Arabic, other languages are rapidly disappearing. In fact, half of the 6,0007,000 languages spoken around the world today will likely die out by the next century, according to the United Nations Educational, Scientific, and Cultural Organization (UNESCO).In an effort to prevent language loss, scholars from a number of organizations UNESCO and National Geographic among them have for many years been documenting dying languages and the cultures they reflect.Mark Turin, a scientist at the Macmillan Center, Yale University, who specializes in the languages and oral traditions of the Himalayas, is following in that tradition. His recently published book, A Grammar of Thangmi with an Ethnolinguistic Introduction to the Speakers and Their Culture, grows out of his experience living, working, and raising a family in a village in Nepal.Documenting the Thangmi language and culture is just a starting point for Turin, who seeks to include other languages and oral traditions across the Himalayan reaches of India, Nepal, Bhutan, and China. But he is not content to simply record these voices before they disappear without record.At the University of Cambridge Turin discovered a wealth of important materials including photographs, films, tape recordings, and field notes which had remained unstudied and were badly in need of care and protection.Now, through the two organizations that he has founded the Digital Himalaya Project and the World Oral Literature Project Turin has started a campaign to make such documents, found in libraries and stores around the world, available not just to scholars but to the younger generations of communities from whom the materials were originally collected. Thanks to digital technology and the widely available Internet, Turin notes, the endangered languages can be saved and reconnected with speech communities.32. Many scholars are making efforts to _.A. promote global languagesB. rescue disappearing languagesC. search for language communitiesD. set up language research organizations33. What does “that tradition” in Paragraph 3 refer to?A. Having full records of the languages.B. Writing books on language teaching.C. Telling stories about language users.D. Living with the native speakers.34. What is Turins book based on?A. The cultural studies in India. B. The documents available at Yale.C. His language research in Bhutan. D. His personal experience in Nepal.35. Which of the following best describes Turins work?A. Write, sell and donate. B. Record, repair and reward.C. Collect, protect and reconnect. D. Design, experiment and report.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。 For the love of readingThe importance of nurturing (培养) young children as readers has become more and more apparent. 36_Read aloud.A six-year study found reading aloud to children every day puts them almost a year ahead of children who do not receive daily read-alouds. It is a way to bathe children in the power of the written words. Using texts above the childrens levels gives them the chance to hear high-level vocabulary and absorb complex language structures. 37_Encourage close reading from the youngest age.We can do this by asking them questions. Use picture book illustrations to strike up deeper questions and conversations. Ask questions you dont know the answers to so that children will be able to answer in ways that reflect their own ideas.38_Entering the world of stories and knowledge should feel like an exciting discovery process. Create visual ways to track the journey. From a reading minute tracker to a “words we learned” or “our big ideas” chart, we can use these visuals to pause for “hip hip hooray (欢呼)” moments.Honor each childs unique identity.Children become great readers by finding connections as they read. 39_“I notice you like books where animals are the main characters.” “I notice you like books where girls are strong characters.” Even the youngest child will begin to recognize that each persons reading choices matter.40_ A child who sees reading as a lifelong, constant companion is more likely to have a lifetime of success.A. Make the journey a celebration.B. Hand them a pen when it is necessary.C. All in all, young children can read early and should be reading all year.D. Name what you notice about why a child is drawn to a text.E. Here are four ways to help your child become a reader.F. The child builds the knowledge that is necessary for being a reader.G. Reading aloud below their levels also allows them to relax and enjoy beloved texts.第三部分语言知识运用(共两节，满分45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A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 Meow, meow, meow, is what I heard as I walked through the alley（小巷；胡同）.
