His body, when I found it, was lightly covered with snow. It snowed almost every day for the next four months, while I sat on the couch and watched it pile up. One morning, I walked downstairs slowly and was surprised to see a snow remover clearing my driveway and the bent back of a woman shoveling (铲) my walk. I dropped to my knees, crawled through the living room. And back up stairs so those good people would not see me. I was embarrassed. My first thought was, how would I ever repay them? I didnt have the strength to brush my hair let alone shovel someones walkBefore Johns death, I took pride in the fact that I rarely asked for help or favors, I defined myself by my competence and independence. So who was I if I was no longer capable and busy? How could I respect myself if all I did was sit on the couch every day and watch the snowfall?Learning how to receive the love and support that came my way wasnt easy. Friends cooked for me and l cried because I couldnt even help them set the table. “Im not usually this lazy,” I wept. Finally, my friend Kathy sat down with me and said, “Mary, cooking for you is not a burden. I love you and I want to do it. It makes me feel good to be able to do something for you.”Over and over, I heard similar emotions from the people who supported me during those dark days. One very wise man told me, “You are not doing nothing. Being fully open to your sorrow may be the hardest work you will ever do.” I am not the person I once was，but in many ways I have changed for the better. My heart is now filled with thanks for people around me. I have been surprised to learn that there is incredible freedom that comes from facing ones worst fear and walking away whole. I believe there is strength, for sure, in accepting a dark period of our life. 21. Why did the author crawl through the living room?A. Because her knees got injured.B. Because she felt ashamed.C. Because she didnt want to pay the snow remover.D. Because she had to brush her hair.22. We can describe the writer before her husband died as the following except _A. smart B. independent C. hard-working D. capable23. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A. The writers friend was unwilling to cook for her B. The writer was in great sorrow because of her husbands death C. The writer recovered from her sorrow quickly with her friends helpD. The day her husband died, it was snowing heavily24. The writer wrote the passage to _A. share her sad story with usB. express her guilty conscience to the people who helped herC. tell us how much she loves her husband D. show her thanks to the people who love and support herBA man who owns a villa has decided to drop the asking price from $ 5,000 to a new iPhone 7 as the owner is desperate to sell before the tax auction (拍卖) season where “thousands” of homes near foreclosure (房屋止赎权) will flood into the market, a real estate broker (房地产经纪人) called Larry Else told ABC News.“This house is really not worth much at all,” Else said. The windows are broken and there is no front door. The broker himself has not been inside the home because his company has a policy of not going in unsecured houses alone. Detroits declining fortunes have left its population about a third of what it used to be in its peak, according to the U.S. Census Bureau（人口普查办公室）.Now, the property has accrued (拖欠) more than $6,000 in back taxes (退税款) and will enter foreclosure next year if that debt is not settled. So while the owner is asking for an iPhone 7, the true cost of the sale comes from the buyer including the cost of the back taxes.That attracted great interest in the property, as Else said that he received four offers today alone. One woman said she was interested in the house for the wood. Another said that they would be willing to hand over an iPhone 6, and another offered $ 850. But Else hinted that the most likely buyer is someone who already lives on the block and put in a $ 700 bid (出价), and their familiarity with the area appeared to put them at the head of the pack. He said he expects one of the four offers to work out, and may even confirm the sale tonight.This is not the end of his bartering (物物交换) business, however, as Else said that hes already gotten another call from a homeowner who has had trouble selling their property. 25. Why did the owner drop his price for the house?A. Because the house was too old.B. Because there is a boom in economy. C. Because the population in Detroit is small.D. Because he wanted to sell the house quickly.26. Larry Else hasnt come into the house because _A. it is dangerous to enter itB. the owner doesnt permit itC. it will break the companys ruleD. he is not familiar with the area27. The house will most possibly be sold at the price of _A. $ 700 B. $ 850 C. $ 5,000 D. an iPhone 728. The passage is most probably taken from _A. a story book B. an economy report C. a news report D. a tourist brochureCPrepare: Plan ahead and think about what you are going to say. In the words of Mark Twain, it usually takes you more than three weeks to prepare for it.Know your subject: Always make sure that you know the subject and have background information at hand for question time.Know your audience: Find out who you will be addressing so that you can tailor (适合) your comments accordingly.Make a point: Keep your speech short and brief and have a few clear points that you need to convey.Practice: Never learn your speech by heart as your delivery will become unnatural, but do practice it a few times in front of the mirror, your parents or your dog.Eye contact: If the thought of looking into a sea of faces scares you, adjust your gaze regularly at different points in the room to create the same effect.First impressions: Your first impression is important when making a public presentation. Find out about dress codes at the place so that you look your best and, if possible, check the microphone beforehand to ensure you know how to use it.Get help: If public presentations are a major part of your life, read up on the art of speech writing and delivery to improve your skills.29. Knowing your subject helps you _A. shorten your preparation time B. find out who likes your presentation best C. make better answers when asked questions about the subject D. keep a clear head and have clear points30. If asked for more advice besides what has been mentioned in the text, you may suggest _ A. eye contact with the audience B. various tone and body language C. proper clothesD. more practice31. Which of the following is the best title of the passage? A. How to teach others to speakB. How to prepare for a perfect speechC. How to be a good speechmakerD. How to improve your speaking skillsDAs we all know, sunshine is important to vegetables, but not all vegetables need lots of sunshine. Mark Hoffman and his wife, Guia, own a bed-and-breakfast guesthouse in rural Kempton, Illinois. They often serve their guests produce fresh from the garden. The Hoffmans have been growing food and flowers for twenty-five years. For almost ten of those years, Mr. Hoffman has been experimenting and working with shade plantings. He says visitors to his website often ask how to plant in shade spaces. He said, “The bottom line here is that most plants will produce more in full sun. But if you do not have full sun, there are other options.”For example, he grows tomatoes near oak trees. Oak trees can produce a lot of shade. But Mr. Hoffman says his tomato plants grow as long as they get five hours a day of direct sunshine, especially morning sun. Not only does this go against the traditional advice that tomatoes need six, eight, even twelve hours a day of full sun, it also shows how plants and trees roots can share nutrients and water. Mr. Hoffman also planted asparagus (芦笋) around a tree at its drip line (滴水线), the area below the outer limit of the branches. So when it rains, all the rain drips down right on the asparagus. The Hoffmans website includes a list of vegetables, flowers and herbs that have produced acceptably for them in partial shade. Mr. Hoffman says plants with wider leaves seem to do better in shady environments. He also found that his potatoes did better in partial shade than in full sun. Moving them out of the sun helped control an insect problem with leaf hoppers. Mr. Hoffman does not use pesticides (农药). Instead, he planted the potatoes at the drip line, especially on the east side of the tree. The potatoes get morning sun, but they are shaded during the hottest part of the day. Leaf hoppers dislike shade, and the hottest part of the day is when they do the worst of their damage.Time of day, brightness of the sun, shadows from trees, walls and buildings, these all influence how much sunlight falls or does not fall on plants. 32. What can we infer from the second paragraph?A. Sun can affect the production of some plants.B. Food growing in the shade contains more nutrients.C. Food and flowers produce more in the shade.D. Food growing in the shade is the best choice for most plants. 33. By using asparagus as an example, the author wants to explain that _A. asparagus prefers to grow in the shadeB. how leaves gain sunshine under the treeC. vegetables grow better in partial shadeD. how plants and tree roots share water34. The underlined words “leaf hoppers” in Para. 5 may be a kind of _A. insects B. pesticides C. plants D. potatoes35. Whats the authors purpose of writing the passage?A. To present a kind of eco-friendly lifestyle.B. To show vegetables can be planted in the shade.C. To recommend an approach to managing a website.D. To introduce Mark Hoffman and his family.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。Most of us may have the same feeling: we have a lot of work to do but a momentary feeling of laziness. 36 This is either because we lack the inspiration or are not encouraged enough to start working. 37 It often leads to the worsening of ones relationship at work and affects work performance, which can result into job loss and extra stress.
