Without saying a word, she speaks to people with her kind eyes. Even when she walks away, she leaves an impressionMollys mark is a smile, stamped into the ground by the horseshoe at the bottom of her false legA few years ago, Molly was badly attacked by a dogThe dog bit all four or Mollys legs and left large cuts in her face. Mollys owner, Kate Harris, took her to an animal hospitalDoctors there were able to save Mollys life, but soon one of her legs became very infected(感染).At first, doctors thought Molly would have to be put to sleepBut Molly changed their minds. This pony, doctors noticed, shifted her weight, and rested her good leg from time to time. Doctors knew t hat Molly had amazing intelligence, and that she wanted to live.Several doctors operated on Molly, and removed her infected leg. A false leg was made for her. The leg was a hollow cast with a pole at the bottom for balance. Doctors gave Molly a special horseshoe at the bottom of the leg. This horseshoe she had had a stamp of a smile face in it!After the operation, Molly walked around on all four legs, as if nothing had ever happened to her! Now, with every step she takes, she stamps a smile in the dirtBut she leaves her m ark in other ways, too.Kaye Harris took Molly to the false leg center. There were children there who, like Molly, had artificial arms or legs. They were amazed to see a pony with a false leg. Molly made them smile and gave them hope. Soon, Molly began to visit schools, nursing homes, army bases and hospitals. A book was even written about Molly!53Molly is the name of a .AdogBhorseCparentDchild54Which of the following is true according to the text?AMolly can speak to people in kind words.BKay Harris took Molly to a childrens hospital after the attack.CIn the beginning, doctors had planned to end Mollys life.DMolly sometimes leaves smiling marks on peoples faces.55What is unique about Molly?AMolly has a false leg with a horseshoe shaped like a smiling face.BMolly ran a race and won the first prize.CMolly often visits places such as schools and parks.DMolly has become a symbol of hope for people of all ages.56Which is the best title for the passage?AA Book on MollyBA False LegCA successful OperationDLeaving her MarkDMore than half of rich Americans have not shown their full wealth to their children, a new survey showed last Tuesday.The survey, published by the Bank of America, studied the rich with $ 3 million or more in assets. It found that “surprisingly few of those surveyed have well-developed plans to preserve and pass on their assets to their children”.The majority of the 457 people surveyed are self-made, first-generation rich. Fifty-two percent of parents have chosen not to tell their children just how wealthy they are, and 15 percent have given away nothing about the family wealth. One in there parents said they had never thought to do it.They are worried that their children would become lazy, spend money freely, make bad decisions and even become a target for gold diggers.Only 34 percent strongly agreed that t heir children would be able to handle any inheritance(遗产) they plan to leave them.“There is an expectation about the wealthy parents that they have a responsibility to pass down their fortune to the next generation,” said Sallie Krawcheck, president of the Bank of America Globai Wealth and Investment Management. “Our research, however, uncovered changing views of what one generation owes the next.”The trend is led by the worlds richest man Bill Gates, who promised in 2020 that he would leave his $58 billion fortune to the charity started by him and his wife, the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation(基金会), and not to his children.“We want to five it back to society in the way that it will have the most positive impact,” he said.Of his plans for his children, Gates said: “I will give the kids some money but not a meaningful percentage they will need to work but they will feel reasonably taken care of.”57We can learn from the passage that .Arich parents may not know how to manage their inheritanceBrich parents dont equal rich kids, at least in the USCAmerican children dont get to inherit their parents wealthDpoor children dont expect themselves to be as rich as their parents58According to the survey, most rich Americans .Athink they owe their children nothingBthink it best to give their money back to societyCdoubt their childrens ability to handle wealthDare confident of their childrens ability to handle wealth59The underlined word “they” in Paragraph 6 refers to .Aresponsible childrenBBill Gates and his wifeCfirst-generation richDrich parents60From the last paragraph, we can see that Bill Gates wants to show .Athe trend of leaving no inheritance to childrenBthe positive impact of charity on societyCthe way of giving back to societyDthe importance of independence for children第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从下框A-F选项中选出能概括每段主题的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。选项中有一项为多余项。A. Look out for bedbugsB. Read before you reserveC. Wash the water g;assesD. Pack antibacterial wipesE. Put away the spreadF. Wash upTo insure a more clean stay in a hotel, start with these steps:61.Before booking a room, read the reviews of previous visitors on travel sites such as TripAdvisor. com. Consumer reviewers are known for their honesty, so if no one raises any red flags about cleanliness, take it as a good sign.62.What are the germiest places in a hotel room? According to travel expert Peter Greenberg, the TV remote ranks No. 1. Not far behind are the doorknobs, phone receiver, toilet flusher, faucets, and ice bucket. Limit your germ(细菌) exposure by giving all of them a thorough disinfecting before handling.63.At a respectable hotel, you can be reasonably sure that the sheets were changed before you checked in. But the bedspread? Not so much. Seasoned travelers advise removing it immediately and making sure it stays away for the duration of your stay.64.According to Independent Traveler. com, they only states that requlre hotels to sanitize water glasses are Kansas and Missouri. If your travels take you to any of the other 48 states (or abroad), whether your glasses have been thoroughly cleaned is anybodys guess. Before drinking from them, wash them well under hot water for at least a minute to kill germs and bacteria.65.You hear it every year at cold and flu season: Washing your hands is the best way to prevent the spread of germs. The same holds true for the rest of the year too. W
