On my second day I got on the first bus that passed，rode on it for several stops, then got off and walked on. The first two hours passed pleasantly enough, then I decided to turn back to my hotel for lunch. After walking about for some time, I decided I had better ask the way. The trouble was that the only word I knew of the language was the name of the street in which I lived, and even that I pronounced badly. I stopped to ask a newspaper-seller. He handed me a paper. I shook my head and repeated the name of the street and he put the paper into my hands. I had to give him some money and went on my way. The next person I asked was a policeman. He listened to me carefully, nodded and gently took me by the arm. There was a strange look in his eyes as he pointed left and right and left again. I nodded politely and began walking in the direction（方向） he pointed.About an hour passed and I noticed that the houses were getting fewer and fewer and green fields were appearing on either side of me. I had come all the way into the countryside. The only thing left for me to do was find the nearest railway station.11. The newspaper-seller_.A. didnt know where the hotel wasB. didnt understand what the writer saidC. could understand what the writer saidD. didnt want to take the money from the writer12.

What can we learn from the last paragraph？A. The writer got close to the hotel where he stayed.B. The writer got to the hotel with the policemans help.C. The writer found he was much farther away from the hotel.D.The writer found the hotel in the direction the policeman pointed.BWalk into the California home of Anne Belles and her husband, Jim Silcock, and youll see kids everywhere playing video games, doing homework, and getting ready for dinner. There are 30 boys in this house and Anne Belles is their mom. Belles has wanted to help children since she was a kid. “I was intrigued by the movie Oliver in the 1960s, a musical（音乐片） based on the Charles Dickens novel Oliver Twist. I told my mom, “Thats what I want to do.” Annes boys are from 3 to 25 years old. All of them are disabled in some way. “They each have special needs physically（身体上）, mentally (精神上), or at school,” says Belles.Every day, a small army of childcare workers, nurses, and volunteers comes in to help cook and clean, wash 30 loads of laundry（衣服） a day, and take care of health needs.To find out how much such a large family costs, we followed Jim Silcock to the grocery（杂货） store. He spent $880 on food for one week. Every month they spend $2,000 to run five cars, $15,000 for the fourteen paid helpers, and more than $10,000 on medical costs（医药费）. The family receives $26,000 a month from the state government, and makes some money from a family business. All the money is spent on the children; having new clothes and fancy cars isnt important to Belles.How do the kids feel? 17-year-old Anthony says, “The family is there whenever I need something . I feel like I am loved.”“Everything Im doing now is what I wanted to happen in my life,” says Anne Belles. “So, no regrets（后悔）; this is perfect. I couldnt ask for it to be better maybe a bigger house, you know, would be nice.”14. The underlined word “intrigued” in the first paragraph means “_”.A. fooledB. attracted C. frightenedD. disappointed15.

For Anne and her husband, raising 30 boys _.A. is their dreamB. is no small taskC. is a piece of cakeD. is their family tradition17. What do 17-year-old Anthonys words mean?A. He is satisfied with his family.B. He has learnt how to love others.C. He wants to get more care and love.D. He is still looking for his own family.CWhat will people die of 100 years from now? If you think that is a simple question，you have not been paying attention to the revolution that is taking place in biotechnology. With the help of new medicine，the human body will last a very long time. Death will come mainly from accidents，murder and war. Todays leading killers，such as heart disease，cancer，and aging itself，will become distant memories. In discussion of technological changes，the Internet gets most of the attention these days. But the change in medicine can be the real technological（技术的） event of our times. How long can humans live? Human brains were known to decide the final death. Cells（细胞） are the basic units（单位） of all living things，and until recently，scientists were sure that the life of cells could not go much beyond（超过） 120 years because the basic materials of cells，such as those of brain cells，would not last（持续） forever（永远）. But the upper limits（上限） will be broken by new medicine. Sometime between 2050 and 2100，medicine will have advanced（发展） to the point at which every 10 years or so，people will be able to take medicine to repair their organs（器官）. The medicine，made up of the basic building materials of life，will build new brain cells，heart cells，and so onin much the same way our bodies make new skin cells to take the place of old ones. It is exciting to imagine that the advance in technology may be changing the most basic condition of human existence（生存），but many technical（科技的） problems still must be cleared up on the way to this wonderful future.18According to the passage，human death is now mainly caused by _.Adiseases and aging（老化）Baccidents and warCaccidents and agingDheart disease and war19In the authors opinion，todays most important advance（进步） in technology（技术） lies in（在于） _.Amedicine Bthe InternetCbrain cells Dhuman organs20Humans may live longer in the future because _.Aheart disease will be far away from usBhuman brains can decide the final deathCthe basic materials of cells will last foreverDhuman organs can be repaired by new medicine21How long can humans live in the future according to the passage?AOver 100 years.BMore than 120 years.CAbout 150 years.DThe passage doesnt tell us.DHow to improve our life? Many people think that they have to accept whatever life throws at themTheyll say, my destiny（命运）I cannot change itOf course not! You dont have to suffer needlessly. Your life depends on you, not on any other external（外部的）factor（因素）I know a woman who says she just accepts what life gives her because she has done everything she can to improve itGuess what her lifestyle isShe wakes up in the morning, goes to work comes back home, relaxes, chats with people, watches TV, and then goes to sleepNext day, the same routine （例行的）cycle followsHuh! Is this what she calls doing her best? She believes she has tried her best and just accepts for her heart that this is the life that has been intended（打算） for her, and that her luck can only change if God wills itShe hasnt realized that we have to do our share of making the effort to（努力） live the life of our dreamsRemember that you harvest（收获） what you sow（播种）You have to get off the sofa, get your eyes off the TV screen, get your hands off the phone（unless it contributes to your success）, and get your mind and body to work! Dont expect your luck to change, unless you do something about itIf something goes wrong, dont just regard（看待） it as a temporary （暂时的）setback（挫折）; instead, learn your lesson, make the most of the situation, and do something to solve the problemIts not enough to think positively（乐观地）; you also have to act positivelyIf someones life is in trouble, do you just hope and pray that things will turn out fine? Of course not! You get to do anything you can to save the personSo it is with your own lifeIt is not enough to hope for the best, but you have to do your bestIn other words, dont just stand（or sit）there, do something to improve your life22According to the woman mentioned（提到） in Para3, her life _. Adoesnt need improvingBcouldnt be improveCwill be better some dayDwill be worse in the future23What does the author think of the womans life?APassive（消极的） BPositive（积极的）CColorful DBoring24Which of the following statements is the authors opinion?AYour temporary problem is not discouragingBYour luck can be changed by your effortsCYou can only achieve success when God wills itDYou should treat yourself in the way you treat friends25In Paragraph 5, the author emphasized the importance of_.Ahope for the bestBintention（意图） to succeedCpositive thinkingDpositive action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。How to make a friendSmile!Its the easiest way to let someone know that youre nice! 26 may notice at first that it feels strange to smile a lot, but over time, youll find that one smile can really make a difference（有影响） in your life.Be fun!27 about the people you most enjoy being with usually they are always on the up and up（诚实的）. Being fun makes people happy and brightens（使闪亮；使生辉；使快乐） the way they think of you. It makes you seem like you truly love life and you can deal with any problems that you have to face.Listen!Good conversations are important when you want to make a new friend, and sometimes you just have to be quiet and listen.
