“Do you want to come with me?” Sally asked her brother. “I’m going to meet some friends at the bike course（赛道，路线）down the block. We’re going to practice for the race next week.”

“No, thanks,” Mark replied. “Sam’s coming over to play basketball.”

Sally rode off on her bike while Mark waited for his friend. Mark was fast, 35 he usually did well in most sports. He didn’t think it would 36 if he practiced the course. It could be hilly or sandy, and Mark knew he would 37 speed along.

The race day finally arrived. “My stomach feels like I ate some butterflies,” Sally told Mark when she saw so many kids around. Then they 38 the other riders at the start line. “Sally is always nervous,” Mark thought. “Don’t worry. 39 will do fine,” he said. As soon as the starter shouted “Go!”, Mark’s legs pumped up and down like two machines. He moved 40

3

to the front.

A few minutes later, there wasn’t anyone ahead of him! Mark raced along the course. He rode past some pine trees. Then the path looped(环绕)around a pond. Mark was surprised that the course was so 41 .

His tired legs felt like they weighed a hundred pounds. All at once, a flash of color caught his eyes. There was a line of bike riders on the course ahead of him! “How could this be?” Mark said to himself. “I must have taken a wrong 42 and made one more loop in the course,” he thought.

Mark pushed his achy muscles(肌肉)harder. He realized his 43 alone wouldn’t be enough this time; 44 the course was just as important. He managed to ride past a couple of bike riders, but he couldn’t 45 the riders who were in the lead.

After the race Mark saw his sister. “Wow, you must have done a good job in the race. What place did you get?” Mark asked.

“Third place!” Sally answered excitedly.

“That’s great! I came in ninth place. But I’ll do better next year because I’ll be 46 enough to practice the course with you,” Mark made a face at his sister and replied. 35.

If you travel in some areas of India, you’ll be lucky enough to be waited on by special guides（向导）― monkeys. These monkeys are always ready to serve you. Hungry, you just need to point to your own stomach and they’ll lead you to the nearest restaurant. Thirsty, the monkeys will lead you to a bar. Tired, you put both of your hands behind your head and the monkeys will take you to the nearest hotel. Don’t feel surprised when they put out their hairy hands to you after the service is done. They are just asking for a little money as a tip. After that, they will wave their hands as if they are saying goodbye to you.

Believe it or not, these monkeys are from the school for monkeys in India, where they were trained for one year. They are not the only monkey students in the world. Some are being trained as nurses in an American medical college. These monkeys are about to look after patients and help them with their housework.

A three-year-old monkey named Helen has learned to turn on TV, turn off lights, and open doors and windows when she is told to. Once the job is done, she will rush to her master, hoping to get some food as a reward.

50. When you’re thirsty, the monkey will lead you to ________. A. a bar B. a hotel C. a restaurant D. a shop 51. According to the passage, monkeys aren’t trained to ________. A. open doors B. buy food C. turn off lights D. look after patients 52. What is probably the best title for this passage? A. Funny Monkeys B. Lovely Guides C. Special Nurses D. Good Helpers

C

There are many colors in nature. But do you think that a color has weight? I think you’ll say “no”. But I am afraid you are wrong. If you don’t believe it, you may do a small experiment.

First, put two objects with the same weight into two boxes. Then cover the boxes. Third, wrap（包裹）one box with a red piece of paper, the other with a white piece of paper. OK. Now hold the boxes with your hand one by one. It is certain that you will think the red one is a little heavier.

Why do you think so? A scientist found that different colors have different weights in a man’s mind. So he did many tests and at last he got the result. That is to say, every color has its own weight in our mind.

The scientist told us that colors also have smell. Can you smell the color? Of course not. Then why did the scientist say so? That is because every color stands for a kind of light with a certain wavelength. It reaches our brain through sense organs (器官).

According to this discovery, scientists say that people accept the colors they like, and refuse the colors they hate. So your body and mind will be healthy by using the colors you like. Or you’ll be nervous or even get ill. For example, you like blue and hate red. If you stay in a room with red windows, wallpaper and furniture for two hours, you’ll feel you have been there for four hours. But if the room is blue, you’ll feel you have been there for only an hour. And, if a person walks out of a blue

5

room and into a red room, his temperature will rise. That means our body temperature will change with different colors.

53. From the experiment, we know that ________. A. the red box is heavier than the white one B. colors can change the weight of an object C. colors have different weights in people’s mind

D. the white piece of paper is lighter than the red one 54. When we walk from a red room into a blue one, ________. A. we will feel very nervous B. our body weight will change C. our body temperature will fall D. we will notice different smells 55. This passage is probably ________. A. a science report B. a news story C. a historical record D. an advertisement

D

“Hello.” — it is one of the first words we learn as babies, yet it’s one of the last ones we think to use as adults. That’s regrettable, because saying hello is more than just saying hello — it’s the respect of another’s worth. How might the world change — how might we change — if we have mastered this word? To find out, I spent one month saying hello to every person I met. Here’s what I’ve learnt.

It can improve productivity. In one of the few studies ever done on this subject, Allan Allday, an assistant professor of special education at Oklahoma State University, had middle school teachers greet their students individually each morning. This exchange of greetings raised the kid’s productivity. School went from impersonal to personal, and that led to more class participation（参与）and better grades.

Environments influence friendliness. One study found that people in the city were less likely to shake hands with a stranger than those in the countryside. And, researchers say, pleasant environments generally encourage more smiles and hellos than unpleasant ones. My experience was similar. Whatever the reason, my hellos in the city were answered far less often than the ones in the countryside. Similarly, people in vacation areas, like the Jersey Shore, were far more friendly than those hurrying to work downtown.

It’s a form of health insurance（保险）. It’s impossible to say hello without smiling. And smiling has been shown to lower blood pressure, lighten unpleasant feelings and improve happiness. It seems that saying hello creates a similar influence.

So maybe we can make the world a better place by saying hello. After a month of doing it, I feel lighter and more connected and I have a better sense of well-being. 56. What can we know from the first paragraph? A. People can say hello since they are born.

B. Saying hello is a way to show respect to others.

C. People lose the ability to say hello when they grow up. D. Saying hello is a way to change the world completely.

57. Which of the following is true according to the second paragraph? A. Students will get good grades by saying hello very often.

B. An assistant professor likes greeting his students every morning.

C. The teacher who often says hello to students is very popular at school. D. Kids will be more active in class by exchanging greetings with teachers.

58. From the passage, we learn that ________.

6

A. smiles can take the place of hellos

B. people living in the city refuse to say hello

C. environments play a role in creating friendliness

D. having health insurance is more important than saying hello

59. The underlined word “well-being” in the last paragraph means ________. A. health and happiness B. comfort and quietness C. pride and confidence D. peace and hopefulness

八、阅读短文，根据短文内容回答问题。（共10分，每小题2分）

When Ron Clark began teaching in 1995, his teacher gave him this advice, “If you can influence the life of one child, you’ll be a success.” Up to now, Ron still doesn’t agree with that advice. When Ron entered a class, he decided to change every student’s life for the better.

Ron never planned on being a teacher. After college, he travelled around the world, living a life full of adventures, but after getting terribly sick, he returned to his hometown, North Carolina. Then he taught at a school there. “From then on it was like magic — I fell in love with teaching,” said Ron. After five years of teaching, he heard that some schools in East Harlem, New York were failing because there were few good teachers. “At that moment I had a feeling — it was like a calling,” he said. “And so I said, ‘I’m going to do it.’”

Before school started, Ron went to every single student’s home and met with their families. He gave his students his home phone number, so if they had any trouble with their homework, they could call him. To connect with his students, Ron knew he should use special teaching methods. He learned to play funny games with them, gave them lively lessons, and spent his time taking students to New York’s tourist attractions. His students studied harder and behaved（表现）better in return.

Because of his efforts in North Carolina and Harlem, Ron Clark has become one of the most successful teachers in America. But, more than anything else, he has become famous for his book called The Essential 55.

Sold in over 25 countries, The Essential 55 has encouraged teachers to influence the lives of all of their students. Ron Clark is now starting a new school in Atlanta, Georgia — probably his biggest adventure!

. Does Ron Clark agree with his teacher’s advice?

65. In which year did Ron Clark begin teaching in New York?

74. One possible version:

In my opinion, we should respect and care for the old. It’s natural that everyone will be old one day, so taking good care of the old is taking care of ourselves.

I’m not living with my grandparents, but I visit them once a week if possible. I often help them with some housework. Besides, I call to say hello to them when I have time. They are always happy to hear my voice. I think what they do need is our love.

I hope everyone can do something for the old. It’s our duty to make sure they live happily. 文段表达评分标准：  第一档：（15~13分）完全符合题目要求，观点正确，要点齐全。句式多样，词汇丰富。语言

M: Hmm. Let me think. Oh, yes. Tom, my cousin, is coming that night, and I will meet him at the

airport.

W: Oh, that’s too bad! It’s my birthday. I’m having dinner with Daniel, and I want to invite a few

people over and make it a party.

M: I’m really sorry, but I won’t be able to make it. W: What a pity! But that’s OK. 6. W: Hello. Can I help you?

W: Wow! It sounds like we’re going to have a wonderful vacation.

9. Good evening, everyone. I’m here to talk to you about my painting. I used to paint in the evenings after work. These days, I have changed my timetable so that I work just four days a week instead of five. That leaves me with Friday, Saturday, and Sunday to work on my painting.

I’d love to give up my job completely and spend all of my time painting, but I work in Information Technology and it pays pretty well. I want to study at an art college, so I have to keep the job for the money I need for the lessons.

I first became interested in art in primary school. I would go outside during holidays with some paper and colored pencils, and just draw anything I saw, like gardens or scenery. During high school, we had art classes twice a week. There, I learned how to use chalk and different kinds of paint, like watercolors and oils. Those classes were really useful for me.

I’ve been on a club called “painting holidays”, where you go out into the countryside, paint during the day, and then discuss your work with other artists after dinner. You learn so much talking to other people interested in the field.

I’ll finish by showing you a video of the places I’ve visited. After that, there’ll be some time for questions. Thanks!

10. W: Hello, Sunshine Sports Centre. Can I help you?

M: Hello. My name’s David O’Connner and I would like some information about the centre. Is it

open every day?

W: It’s open every day except Mondays. M: How much is it to use your centre?

W: Adults pay 28 pounds every month and children under 12 only pay 14 pounds. M: Can I practise all sports?

W: Well, you can play tennis, football and basketball. But the swimming pool can only be used

from 10:00 am to 5:00 pm at the weekend. M: May I have your address?

W: Yes. 99 West Street. You can come over and try some sports. M: Oh, that’s good.

W: Robert Smith is an assistant coach. You can find him when you come. He will show you around

the centre.

M: Robert, R-O-B-E-R-T? W: Yes.

11

M: Well, thank you. W: Not at all, bye.
