The sweet music attracted him, so he went into the restaurant to hear it better. Mr. Phillip sat down quietly at a table near the door. Noticing the waiter come over, he ordered a glass of French wine.The waiter returned with the glass of wine and put it on the table. Mr. Phillip started drinking the wine slowly and watching other people in the restaurant. There were three customers sitting at a table near him. He could tell by their accents that one of them was an American, one an Englishman and the third man was a funny-looking stranger. The polite waiter served each of the three men a glass of beer. By chance, each glass had a fly in it.Out of curiosity, Mr. Phillip watched carefully what they were going to do. To his amusement, he found that each of them took a quite different attitude. The American picked up his glass, took a hard look at the fly, and then poured the fly and half of his beer on the floor. The Englishman looked into the glass, noticed the fly and reached for a spoon, with which he took the fly out of the beer and drank the rest of it. And the stranger noticed the fly in the beer, picked it with his fingers, squeezed (挤压) it carefully in order to save every drop of beer, then drank it up.21.

When you apply for college! you will have to be honest with yourself and do a bit of research to find the right fit. Here are three steps to take when applying to colleges for the best chances at getting into the best college for you.Step 1 Making a List of Colleges to Apply toWith over 6,000 colleges in the United States, the first step in applying to college is to do some research and make a college list. This process will be different for everyone. The number of colleges you apply to can vary, from applying to 1 school (not recommended) to 30 schools (not recommended), each applicant can choose how many colleges they apply to. Many limit the number because applications are accompanied by a fee.Step 2 Splitting the List into Target, Reach and Safety SchoolsIn general, students will want to apply to three types of schools: Target, Reach and Safety schools. It is up to you how many applications you send, but a good mix would be more target than reach, and at least one safety. You will need to take your list, and now decide which are your top picks, which are attainable for you academically, which are affordable for you only with aid, and refine（精炼）your broad list into a group of schools that gives you the best chance for success. Talk to an admission counselor at your high school if you have questions about this.Step 3 Completing and Sending Applications to CollegesOnce your list is complete, you are ready to apply to college by completing and sending in applications! College applications take time to completeyou have to write essays, ask for recommendations and get test scores sent to schoolsso stay organized! All colleges will require these types of application materials, so start thinking about these items well before October or December. Once you complete and send them, then you have successfully applied to college.24. What can be learned from the first paragraph?A. Each applicant should choose the best college as their idealB. You dont have to think twice before applying to college.C. Once you apply to a college, youll be admitted to it easily.D. You should be cautious to pick up the right college.25.

He liked it and hoped to live a quiet life in it.But to his great surprise, many tourists came to see his house in summer holidays, for it was the most interesting building in the village. From morning to night there were tourists outside the house. They kept looking into the rooms through the windows and many of them even went into Mr. Davids garden. This was too much for Mr. David. He decided to drive the visitors away. So he put a notice on the window. The notice said: “If you want to satisfy your curiosity, came in and look round. Price: twenty dollars.” Mr. David was sure that the visitors would stop coming, but he was wrong. More and more visitors came and Mr. David had to spend every day showing them around his house. “I came here to retire, not to work as a guide,” he said angrily. In the end, he sold the house and moved away.28. Mr. Davids house was _ that many tourists came to see it.A. so small B. so big C. so interesting D. so quiet29.Mr. David put a notice on the window in order _.A. to get some money out of the visitors B. to let visitors come in and look aroundC. to satisfied the visitors curiosity D. to drive visitors away30.The order made the visitors _.A. angry at the unfair price B. more interested in his houseC .lose interested in his house D. feel happy about the price31.At last he had to sell the house and move away because_.A. He could not live a quiet life in itB. He made enough money and wanted to buy a new expensive houseC. He did not like itD. He could not work as a guideDWhat is your favorite color? Do you like yellow, orange, red? If you do, you must be an optimist, a leader, an active person who enjoys life, people and excitement. Do you prefer grays and blues? Then you are probably quiet, shy and you would rather follow than lead. If you love green, you are strong-minded and determined. You wish to succeed and want other people to see you are successful. At least this is what psychologists tell us, and they should know, because they have been seriously studying the meaning of color preference, and the effect that colors have on human beings. They tell us that we dont choose our favorite color as we grow up. If you happen to love brown, you did so as soon as you opened your eyes, or at least as soon as you could see clearly.A yellow room makes us feel more cheerful and more comfortable than a dark green one, and a red dress rings warmth and cheer to the saddest winter day. On the other hand, black is depressing. Light and bright colors make people not only happier but more active. It is a fact that factory workers work better, harder, and have fewer accidents when their machines are painted orange rather than black or dark gray.Remember, then, that if you feel low, you can always brighten your day or your life with a new shirt or a few colorful things. Remember also that you will know your friends and your enemies better when you find out what colors they like and dislike. And dont forget that anyone can guess a lot about your character when you choose a piece of handkerchief.32. According to this passage, _.A. one is born with his color preferenceB. one can choose his color preferenceC. ones color preference is changeableD. one has to choose his favorite color as soon as he can see clearly33. If someone choose a red handkerchief, he will probably do the following things EXCEPT _.A. Becoming a leader B. Joining the Student UnionC. Always complain and blame others D. Getting along well with others34. I am feeling black means _.A. I am feeling well B. I am depressed C. I am excited D. I am very happy35. The main idea of this passage is _.A. ones color preference shows ones characterB. you can brighten your life with wonderful colorsC. psychologists have been studying the meaning of color preferenceD. ones color preference has something to do with his character and colors have effects on human beings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。ForgivenessTo forgive is a virtue，but no one has ever said it is easy. When someone has deeply hurt you，it can be extremely difficult to let go of your hate. However，forgiveness is possible，and it can be surprisingly beneficial to your physical and mental health. People who forgive show less sadness，anger and stress and more hopefulness，according to a recent research.36 Try the following steps：Calm yourself. 37 You can take a couple of breaths and think of something that gives you pleasure：a beautiful scene in nature，or someone you love.Dont wait for an apology. Many times the person who hurt you does not intend to apologize. They may have wanted to hurt you or they just dont see things the same way. 38 Keep in mind that forgiveness does not necessarily mean becoming friends again with the person who upset you.Take the control away from your offender(冒犯者)Rethinking about your hurt gives power to the person who caused you pain. Instead of focusing on your wounded feelings，learn to look for the love，beauty and kindness around you.39 If you understand your offender，you may realize that he or she was acting out of unawareness，fear，and even love. You may want to write a letter to yourself from your offenders point of view.Dont forget to forgive yourself. 40 But it can rob you of your selfconfidence if you dont do it.A. Try to see things from your offenders side.BWhy should you forgive?CRecognize the benefits of forgiveness.DIf you wait for people to apologize，you could be waiting an awfully long time.EFor some people，forgiving themselves is the biggest challenge.FTo make your anger die away，try a simple stressmanagement technique.GHow should you start to forgive?第三部分 英语知识运用（共两节，满分45分）第一节 完形填空（共20小题；每小题1.5分，满分30分）阅读下面短文，掌握其大意，然后从各题所给的四个选项（A.B.C和D）中，选出最佳选项。We were depressed and things were tough.
