I was a college freshman and had stayed up most of the night before laughing and talking with friends. Now just before my first class of the day my eyelids were feeling heavier and heavier and my head was drifting down to my desk to make my textbook a pillow. A few minutes nap time before class couldnt hurt, I thought.Boom! I lifted my head immediately and my eyes opened wider than saucers. I looked around with my heart beating quickly trying to find the cause of the noise. My young professor was looking back at me with a mischievous, boyish smile on his face. He had intentionally dropped the pile of textbooks he was carrying onto my desk. “Good morning !” he said, still smiling. “Im glad to see everyone is awake. Now lets get started.”For the next hour I wasnt sleepy at all. It wasnt from the shock of my professors textbook alarm clock either. Instead, it was from the attractive discussion he led. With knowledge and good humor, he made the material come alive. His insights were full of both wisdom and loving kindness. And the enthusiasm and joy that he taught with were contagious（有感染力的）. I left the classroom not only wide awake, but a little smarter and a little better as well.I learned something far more important than not sleeping in class that day too. I learned that if you are going to do something in this life, do it well, do it with joy, and make it an expression of your love. What a glorious place this world would be if all of us did our work joyously and well ! What a beautiful world we could create if every doctor, teacher, musician, cook, waitress, poet, miner, farmer, and laborer made their work an expression of their love ! Dont sleepwalk your way through life then. Wake up! Let your love fill your work and your soul. Life is too short not to live it well.41. What did the author want to do just before his first class of the day?A. Talk with his friends. B. Take a short sleep.C. Get his eyes examined. D. Stay away from the class.42. The underlined word “mischievous” in Paragraph 2 probably means “_”.A. naughty B. tricky C. sensitive D. dishonest43. What else did the author learn that day?A. Students should not sleep in class but respect their teachers.B. Everyone should love his job and sleepwalk his way through life.C. Life is too limited to make your work an expression of your love.D. People from all walks of life should do their jobs with wisdom and love.44. What can be inferred from this passage?A. The professor often kept his students sharp by using a textbook alarm.B. The author was attracted by the professors great wisdom and enthusiasm.C. The author left the two-hour period not only wide awake, but a little smarter.D. Though the author was frightened awake, he was not clear-headed in the class.(B)“Tiger Mother” parenting raises media storm. A new book written by a self-described Chinese descent(血统)on her super-strict parentingBattle Hymn of the Tiger Mother has raised media storm and fierce debates in the US.Amy Chua is a Yale Law School professor and the mother of two teenage girls. She is the daughter of immigrants of Chinese descent. In the Chinese culture，the tiger symbolizes strength and power. In her book Ms.Chua writes about how she demanded excellence from her daughters. For example，her daughters，Sophia and Louisa，were never allowed to attend a sleep-over，be in a school play，watch TV or play computer games. They couldnt choose their own after-class activities or get any grade less than an AThey had to play piano or violinand no other musical instruments. She writes that if a Chinese child gets a Bwhich she says” would never happen”there would be a screaming，hairtearing explosion”She describes making her 7-year-old daughter play a piano piece perfectlyyelling and not letting her leave the bench even to use the bathroomuntil it was.Many people have criticized Chua. Some say her parenting methods were abusive. She even admits that her husband，who is not Chinese，objects to her parenting style. But she says that was the way her parents raised her and her three sisters.Stacy DeBroff，who has written four books about parenting，says Amy Chuas parenting style is not limited to Chinese families. She says it represents a traditional way of parenting among immigrants seeking a better future for their children. But she also sees a risk. When children have no time to be social or to follow their own interests，they might not develop other skills that they need to succeed in life. Stacy DeBroff advised parents not to just repeat the way they were raised.Alison Lo，an assistant professor of marketing at the University of Washingtons Bothell campus said，“I dont think Amy is advocating a best practice of parenting style，or that success and achievements are critical yardsticks(衡量标准)of a good life. But I can imagine how strong her daughters college applications are going to be. For many parents whose dreams are seeing their kids graduating from a competitive university，Amy is sharing with the readers that it is achievable by persistent，dedicated parental guidance，”Lo said in an interview with Julie Muhlstein，a columnist with the US-based H. “In that sense，a young adults giftedness can be born，or made，”Lo continued.45According to the passage，which is TRUE of Amy Chua?AShe is an easy-going woman. BShe is an assistant professor.CShe is a demanding parent. DShe is a cruel teacher.46Which of the following are Sophia and Louisa allowed to do?APlaying the piano. BPlaying the guitar.CDating with boys. DGetting an A minus.47Stacy DeBroff advised parents to_.Aseek a better future for their children Bdevelop their own style of parentingCbe strict with their children Dfollow Amy Chuas parenting style48Alison Lo concluded that_.Apersistent，dedicated parental guidance is the best parenting styleBparents should respect childrens personalitiesCa gifted child was born with talentDa teenager can be raised to be talent by strict parenting(C)How to Become Cleverer? Once a boy came to ask a fisherman how to become cleverer, because his mother always called him “foolish boy”.“Thats easy,” answered the fisherman. “I know one way to make you become cleverer.”“Really?”“Of course. It is said a fish head is good for brain. If you eat one, youll become cleverer indeed. Pay only three pounds for one fish head.” The boy paid him three pounds and the fisherman cut off a fish head and handed it to him.A raw fish head is not goodnot even for a hungry boy to eat but the boy ate it up in two gulps.“Do you feel anything?” asked the fisherman.“Not in my head,” said the boy.The boy lay on the ground and thought. “One whole fish costs only two pounds. I had paid him three pounds forthe fish head. Why couldnt I have the whole fish for soup, a head for brain and one pound left over?” He jumped up and shouted at the fisherman. “You thief!

On average, American teens get two hours less than the average 9.2 hours of sleep they need each night to function at their best.There are many reasons why teens dont get enough sleep. 57 When your parents were young, they might have read a book or watched television before trying to go to sleep. But todays teens are likely to be surfing the Internet, texting, emailing, or playing video games right before bed. 58 . And using them right before bed can result in difficulty getting to sleep. According to a survey by the National Sleep Foundation, teens with four or more electronic equipment in their rooms are much more likely than their peers to get an insufficient amount of sleep at night, and are almost twice as likely to fall asleep in school and while doing homework.59 . In the National Sleep Foundation survey, three-quarters of the teens took at least one drink with caffeine every day, and nearly one-third consumed two or more every day. With all the trendy “high-energy” drinks and coffees out there right now, its easy to get a caffeine overload and thats not good for sleep.So what can you do if youre in lack of sleep? “The good news is that you only have to make up about a third of what you have lost, to function and feel better,” says Dr. Mahowald at a sleep disorders center. 60 .But sleeping until noon on the weekend can cause problems - youll likely be wide-eyed until late those nights. Instead, try keeping a reasonable, regular sleeping and waking schedule.A. One of them is a relatively new development.BThose extra two hours of sleep on Saturday and Sunday mornings can really help.CMost teens dont get enough sleep.DMany teens also drink too much caffeine to sleep well.EElectronic devices are more exciting than simply watching television.FResearchers also have found that biology plays a role in teens sleep patterns.GMany school districts are shifting their start times to later morning for school students.第II卷(共50分)第四部分：英语知识应用（共三节，满分50）第一节（共10小题：每小题1.5分，满分15分）阅读下面材料，在空白处填入适当的内容（1个单词）或括号内单词的正确形式。Dubai Dubai was a 6,000-person fishing village half a century ago.
