Week by week her list grew: I was very thin, I was not a good student, I talked too much, I was too proud, and so on. I tried to bear all this as long as I could. At last, I became very angry. I ran to my father with tears in my eyes.He listened to me quietly, and then he asked. “Are the things she says true or not? Janet, didnt you ever wonder what youre really like? Well, you now have that girls opinion. Go and make a list of everything she said and mark the points that are true. Pay no attention to the other things she said.”I did as he told me. To my great surprise, I discovered that about half the things were true. Some of them I couldnt change (like being very thin), but a good number I couldand suddenly I wanted to change. For the first time I went to a fairly clear picture of myself. I brought the list back to Daddy. He refused to take it. “Thats just for you,” he said. “You know better than anyone else the truth about yourself. But you have to learn to listen, not just close your ears in anger and feeling hurt. When something said about you is true, youll find it will be of help to you. Our world is full of people who think they know your duty. Dont shut your ears. Listen to them all, but hear the truth and do what you know is the right thing to do.”Daddys advice has returned to me at many important moments.

It is also the color of most growing plants.Sometimes, the word green means young, fresh and growing. Sometimes, it describes something that is not yet ripe or finished. A greenhorn is someone who has no experience or who is new to a situation. But in the fifteenth century, a greenhorn was a young cow or ox whose home had not yet developed. A century or so later, a greenhorn was a soldier who had not yet had any experience in battle. By the eighteenth century, a greenhorn had the meaning it has today-a person who is new in a job.Someone who has the ability to grow plants well is said to have a green thumb. The expression comes from the early nineteen hundreds. A person, with a green thumb seems to have a magic touch that makes plants grow quickly and well. You might say that the woman next door has a green thumb if her garden continues to grow long after your plants have died.The green-eyed monster is not a frightening creature from outer space, It is an expression used about four hundred years ago by British writer William Shakespeare in his play Othello. It describes the unpleasant feeling a person has when someone has something he wants. Green-eyed monster may affect your friend if you get a pay raise and she does not.In most places in the world, a green light is a signal to move ahead. A green light on a traffic signal means your car can continue on. In everyday speech, a green light means approval to continue with a project.28. How many expressions including green are mentioned in the passage?A. Three. B. Four. C. Five. D. Six.29. What does a greenhorn mean now?A. A person who has rich job experience.B. A soldier who has not yet any experience in battle.C. A young cow or ox whose horns have not yet developed.D. A person who is a green hand without any experience.30. Which expression can be used if your friend is good at growing plants?A. A green thumb B. A green light C. A greenhorn D. The green-eyed monster31. What will make you suffer from the green-eyed monster?A. You meet a frightening creature. B. You watch the play Othello;C. You have a trouble D. You get a pay raise.DMusic for Humans and Humpback WhalesAs researchers conclude in Science, the love of music is not only a universal feature of the human species, but is also deeply fixed in complex structures of the human brain, and is far more ancient than previously suspected.In the articles that discuss the field of bio-musicology, the study of the biological basis for the creation and appreciation of music, researchers present various evidence to, show that music-making is at once an original human business, and an art form with skillful performers throughout the animal kingdom.The new reports stress that humans hold no copyright on sound wisdom, and that a number of nonhuman animals produce what can rightly be called music, rather than random sound. Recent in-depth analyses of the songs sung by humpback whales show that, even when their organ would allow them to do otherwise, the animals converge on the same choices relating to sounds and beauty, and accept the same laws of song composition as those preferred by human musicians, and human ears, everywhere.For example, male humpback whales, who spend six months of each year doing little else but singing, use rhythms (节奏) similar to those found in human music and musical phrases of similar lengtha few seconds. Whales are able to make sounds over a range of at least seven octaves (八度音阶), yet they tend to move on through a song in beautiful musical intervals, rather than moving forwards madly. They mix the sounds like drums and pure tones in a ratio (比例) which agrees with that heard in much western music. They also use a favorite technique of human singers, the so-called A-B-A form, in which a theme is stated, then developed, and then returned to in slightly revised form.Perhaps most impressive, humpback songs contain tunes that rhyme. This suggests that whales use rhyme in the same way we do: as a technique in poem to help them remember complex material, the researchers write.32. The underlined words converge on in Paragraph 3 probably means_.A. tend towards B. refer to C. turn into D. put forward33. Which of the following shows the advanced musical ability in humpback whales?A. They can remember complex material.B. They can create pleasing patterns of music.C. They can make sounds like drums continuously.D. They can sing along with rhythms of western music.34. What is the main idea of the article?A. Animals are able to compose and enjoy music like humans.B. Human beings borrow ideas in music from humpback whales.C. Humpback whales are skillful performers in the animal kingdom.D. Music-making is an ancient activity of both humans and animals.35. The main purpose of the passage is to _.A. argue and discuss B. inform and explainC. compare and advertise D. examine and assess第三部分 英语知识运用（共两节，满分25分）第一节 七选五（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 Do Well in ExamsDo not underestimate(低估) the power of revision in the days and hours before an examination. The closer you are to the exam, the more chance you have of storing and retaining(保持）crucial(关键的） information. But do not overdo it. 36 An effective daily routine can help you through an exam period, so in the days leading up to your first exam, get into the habit of being up and ready to work by game. It can be a shock to the system after months of working to your own timetable to be mentally alert at that time if you have not prepared for it.On the day of the exam, have a good breakfast, pack two of everything you need （pens, pencils, erasers, etc.）, then make your way to the examination hall in good time 37 .Once in your seat, simply pause for a few seconds and collect your thoughts. Close your eyes and take in a few slow, deep breaths to help you relax. When you turn over the test paper, spend a short period reading through all the instructions and questions, paying particular attention to key verbs such as discuss, compare and evaluate. 38 It is always wise to allow for 10 minutes at the end of the exam to give yourself time to go back over your answers. Once you have selected the questions you wish to tackle, begin by attempting the one you think is your strongest. It will give you more confidence when you see a well-answered question down on paper. Also remember to write clearly, and do not be afraid to express the unexpected: after all, examiners can get very bored marking stereotypical answers.39 If you do need something else to focus on to help collect your thoughts, choose a fixture in the room, such as the ceiling - or anything else that will not allow you to be distracted.Finally, once you have finished, never hang around outside afterwards to attend the discussion by other students. 40A. Do not arrive too early, though, as other peoples anxiety can be contagious (有传染性), and you may suffer from undue（多度的） panic.B. Try not to be tempted to look at those around you, or at the clock.C. When you get home, read the examination paper through and look up all the words you didnt understand.D. Sleep, exercise and relaxation are all just as important.E. Map out a quick plan of points you wish to make and how much time you should spend on each question.F. Go and have a well-earned rest, then prepare for your next exam.G. Underestimate the test in your mind.第二节 完形填空 (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四个选项 (A、B、C和D)中, 选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。Last March my dad told us that there was a chance he would be deployed （部署，派遣）overseas.
