I stopped at a gas station about 50 miles from Oklahoma City, where I was planning to visit a friend. While I was standing in line at the cash register(收款机), I said hello to an old couple who were also paying for gas.I took off, but had gone only a few miles when black smoke began pouring from the back of my car. I stopped and wondered what I should do. A car pulled up behind me. It was the couple I had spoken to at the gas station. They said they would take me to my friends. We chatted on the way into the city, and when I got out of the car, the husband gave me his business card.I wrote him and his wife a thankyou note for helping me. Soon afterwards, I received a Christmas present from them. Their note that came with it said that helping me had made their holidays meaningful.Years later, I drove to a meeting in a nearby town in the morning. In the late afternoon I returned to my car and found that Id left the lights on all day, and the battery was dead. Then I noticed that the Friendly Ford dealershipa shop selling carswas right next door. I walked over and found two salesmen in the showroom.“Just how friendly is Friendly Ford？” I asked and explained my trouble. They quickly drove a pickup truck to my car and started it. They would accept no payment. When I got home, I wrote them a note to say thanks. I received a letter back from one of the salesmen. No one had ever taken the time to write him and say “thank you”，and it meant a lot, he said.“Thank you”two powerful words. Theyre easy to say and mean so much.21Why did the writer get into the old couples car?AHis parents were in the car. BHis car had broken down.CHis friend told him to do so. DHis cars oil had run out.22From the text, we know that the old couple were _AtalkativeBbrave Ckind Dlonely23What did the old couple think of helping the writer?AThey could get a reward. BIt made their holiday worthy.CThey did it by chance. DIt was due to a thankyou letter.24What would be the best title for the text?AAn Experience to Missouri BAn Old CoupleCA Meaningful Holiday DA Meaningful ThankyouBPaper is a cheap and accessible medium that can produce beautiful results. To most people，making a paper plane could be one of the simplest things to do. Its the simplest and easiest form of paper art. And paper art can be traced back to Japan, where it originated over a thousand years ago. However, theres a special minority who takes paper art to the next level，magically turning the plain white or colored paper into some of the most amazing artworks. Check out the following artists and their works!The Danish artist Peter Callesen is famous for his talent in combining the minimalism(极简的) of a white sheet of paper with the complexity of carefully cut and folded paper and uses the two to build out some pleasing works.The British artist Su Blackwell often goes to secondhand bookstoresto look for materials with which she can carve out delicate sculptures. The models look as if they “grow” naturally from the pages of the books. The artist finds inspiration from the book title or a paragraph or picture inside and then spends months carefully slicing each one into an eye-catching paper model. Her old book sculptures sell for up to 5，000 each.By carefully folding simple pieces of paper, German artist Simon Schubert creates amazing masterpieces. He turns paper into architectural masterpieces by folding a simple piece of paper to shape the creases(褶痕), then unfolding it to show the fascinating artwork.Another master of paperfolding is Jen Stark. Her artwork is often in the form of colorful caves and topographic(地形的) maps. Using her vivid imagination and a special knife, she is a modern day magician who turns humble materials like construction paper and glue into fantastic, complicated sculptures that puzzle the eyes. Her work draws inspiration from nature.25According to the passage, paper art _Ais about planefolding Bis most prosperous in JapanCdates back to 1000 B. C. Dis now on a new level26The British artist mentioned in the passage _Acombines the minimalism and complexity of paperBoften gets inspired by secondhand booksCmakes architectural masterpieces with Simon SchubertDis a magician who uses simple paper materials27According to the passage, Jen Stark _Auses paper to build complicated shapes Bis from GermanyCcreates things too puzzling to understand Dworks also as a magician28Whats the authors attitude towards paper art?Aneutral. Bunclear. Cappreciative. Dnegative.CIf you think that running marathons will help you live a long and healthy life, new research may come as a shock. According to a recent scientific study, people who do a very strenuous workout are as likely to die as people who do no exercise at all.Scientists in Denmark have been studying over 1,000 joggers and nonjoggers for 12 years. The death rates from the sample group indicate that people who jog at a moderate pace two or three times a week for less than two and a half hours in total are least likely to die. The best speed to jog at was found to be about 5 miles per hour. The research suggests that people who jog more than three times a week or at higher speeds of over 7 mph die at the same rate as nonjoggers. The scientists think that this is because strenuous exercise causes structural changes to the heart and arteries(动脉). Over time, this can cause serious injuries.Peter Schnohr, a researcher in Copenhagen, said, “If your goal is to decrease risk of death and improve life expectancy, jogging a few times a week at a moderate pace is a good strategy. Anything more is not just unnecessary, and it may be harmful.”The implications of this are that moderate forms of exercise such as tai chi, yoga and brisk walking may be better for us than “iron man” events, triathlons and longdistance running and cycling. According to Jacob Louis Marott, another researcher involved in the study, “You dont actually have to do that much to have a good impact on your health. And perhaps you shouldnt actually do too much.”29The underlined word “strenuous” in Paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to “_”Ahard Bregular Cpractical Dflexible30The author presents some figures in Paragraph 2 to _.Asuggest giving up jogging Bshow risks of doing sportsCprovide supportive evidence Dintroduce the research process31According to the scientists, why is too much exercise harmful?AIt may injure the heart and arteries. BIt can make the body tired out.CIt will bring much pressure. DIt consumes too much energy.32What can be inferred from the text?ANo exercise at all is the best choice. BMore exercise means a healthier life.CMarathons runners are least likely to die.DProper exercise contributes to good health.DThe following are introductions to some programs that BBC I London will show on TV12:25 a.m. Tuesday The Real Swiss Robinson FamilyLaura worried that her children have had their life too easy due to her husbands career in big business, so she decides to take her teenagers to the Cook Islands to experience the simple lifeThey face storms and a lack of food, but Laura is happy as their local guide shows them the islands wealth of rare fruits and foods11:00 a.m. Wednesday Orangutan DiaryA Team have come across an armed man who is holding two baby apes who were captures, one of them, David, is sent to a medical emergency in the forestLater a center director, Nielsen, finds a suitable place to set free more rescued animals7:50 p.m. ThursdayLost Buildings of BritainSimon Thurley visits the ruins of Glastonbruy Abbey（修道院），which , before its destruction by Henry VIII, was famous for some of the most amazing stained-glass of its ageIt also had a great deal of financial power, acting as the center of an influential business empireEventually, it was the kings envy of the abbeys wealth that changed the abbeys fate10:35 p.m. Thursday Nigella ExpressNigella presents ideas for impromptu（即兴的）cooking, from new recipes and suggestions for taking advantage of the food you have to making quick, simple and impressive meals33Why is Laura worried?ALife on the Cook Islands is too simple.BHer husband faces difficulties in his business.CStorms are approaching her hometown.DHer children may not know how to cherish life.34Jim enjoys TV programmes of people or organizations that take care of animals.
