It was Thanksgiving morning. I was busy preparing the traditional Thanksgiving turkey when the doorbell rang. I opened the front door and saw two small children in rags huddling together on the top step.
“Any old papers, lady？” asked one of them.
I was busy. I wanted to say “no” until I looked down at their feet. They were wearing thin little sandals(凉鞋), wet with heavy snow.
“Come in and I'll make you a cup of hot cocoa.”
They walked over and sat down at the table. Their wet sandals left marks upon the floor. I served them cocoa and bread to fight against the cold outside. Then I went back to the kitchen and started cooking.
The silence in the front room struck me. I looked in. The girl held the empty cup in her hands,
looking at it. The boy asked in a flat voice, “Lady, are you rich？”
“Am I rich? Pity, no！”
I looked at my wornout slipcovers(椅套). The girl put her cup back in its saucer(茶碟)carefully and said, “Your cups match your saucers.” They left after that, holding their papers against the wind. They had reminded me that I had so much for which to be grateful.
Plain blue china cups and saucers were only worth five pence. But they matched.
I tasted the potatoes and stirred(搅动)the meat soup. Potatoes and brown meat soup, a roof over our heads, my man with a regular job, these matched, too.
I moved the chairs back from the fire and cleaned the living room. The muddy marks of little sandals were still wet upon my floor. Let them be for a while, I thought, just in case I should begin to forget how rich I am.
24．Which of the following would be the best title for the text?
A．Lady, are you rich? B．A story of Thanksgiving Day
C．Don't forget how rich you are D．Do cups and saucers match well?
25．Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage?
A．If cups and saucers match well, they are a best pair even though cheap.
B．The writer had thought she wasn't rich because her supplies were not expensive.
C．The girl thought the writer was rich just because she wanted to make the writer happy.
D．After hearing what they said, the writer seemed to understand what a rich life was.
26．The writer left the muddy marks of little sandals on the floor for a while to________.
A．show that she was a kindhearted lady
B．remind her that she shouldn't forget how rich she was
C．leave room for readers to think about what being rich is
D．prove that she had understood what meant being rich
27．It can be inferred from the text that whether you are rich depends on________.
A．how much money you have made
B．your social relationship
C．the way you help others
D．what attitude you have had towards life
C
Do you love Beats headphones, True Religion jeans, and UGG shoes? These are some of the most popular brands (牌子) around. They are also expensive. But some experts say they are not much better than cheaper brands.
For example, Jim Wilcox works for Consumer Reports. He tested all kinds of headphones. He says that $80 Koss Pro headphones provide basically the same quality and comfort as Beats. So why do people pay twice or even 10 times as much for the hottest brands?
Experts say it's because fashionable, expensive brands send a message. Brands say “I belong” or “I can afford it.”
Some people think that expensive brand names are worth the price. They say that some designer clothes really are top quality and that they last longer than cheaper brands. Some teenagers choose to wear popular brands because these brands make them feel good about themselves.
Alexandra Allam, 17, likes to buy brand-name products. “I'd rather spend the extra money to get something I know I'll be satisfied with,” she says. Her friend Emmy Swan agrees, saying “As long as you can afford it, it seems reasonable to buy what you want.” But not all teenagers agree. “Spending hundreds of dollars for designer sunglasses is stupid and unreasonable,” says Daniel Steinbrecher, 16. “It's fake (假的) happiness.”
People who are against wearing expensive brand names say that many designer brands aren't any better. “It's wasteful to buy things just because they are popular,” says Edmund Williams, 15. “You'll feel better if you buy things because you like them. If you have extra money to spend, it would be better to give it to people in need.”
28. The example of Jim's report wants to tell us _____.
A. lesser-known brands may offer the same quality as name brands
B. Koss Pro headphones are better than Beats
C. the hottest brands are of the highest quality
D. popular brands make people comfortable
29. According to experts, people choose the hottest brands probably _____.
A. to show off B. for their better quality
C. for their better designs D. to belong to a special group
30. What does Edmund think of expensive brands?
A.They need to improve their quality.
B. They make him feel confident.
C. They are not worth the price.
D. They pay too much attention to personal likes.
31. The text is mainly about _____.
A. how to buy things reasonably
B. the competition between brands
C. whether expensive brands are worth high prices
D.the different values of teenagers
D
Let's face it.No one drinks diet soda for the taste.People drink diet soda in the hope that it will help them lose weight or at least keep them from gaining it.Yet it seems to have exactly the opposite effect, according to a new study.
Researchers from the University of Texas said those who drank two or more diet sodas a day had waist size increases that were six times greater than those who didn't drink diet soda."What we saw was that the more diet sodas a person drank, the more weight they were likely to gain," said Sharon Fowler.
The study was based on data from 474 participants in a large, ongoing research project, where the participants were followed for nearly l0 years .While the findings are surprising, they also offer some explanations.
Nutrition expert, Melanie Rogers, who works with overweight patients in New York, has found that when patients are switched(转换) from regular to diet soda, they don't lose weight at all."We weren't seeing weight loss necessarily, and that was confusing to us," said Rogers.
So why would diet soda cause weight gain? No one knows for sure yet, but it could be that people think they can eat more if they drink diet soda, and so over-compensate(补偿) for the missing calories.
A related study found some sweeteners （甜味剂） raised blood sugar levels in some mice."Data from this and other studies suggest that the promotion of diet sodas and sweeteners may be risky," said Helen P.Hazuda, professor at the University of Texas's school of medicine."They may be free of calories, but not of consequences."
32. People drink diet soda to _____.
A．enjoy its taste B．gain more energy
C．stay in fashion D．achieve weight loss
33．The new study suggests that drinking diet soda _____.
A．makes people much thinner B．helps people to be healthier
C．causes people to become heavier D．offers people more calories
34. We can learn from the passage that _____．
A．regular soda makes people lose more weight
B．diet soda drinkers might eat more food
C．diet soda does help reduce calories
D．most blood diseases come from diet soda
35． The underlined word "They" in the last paragraph probably refers to _____.
A．sweeteners B．diet sodas and sweeteners
C．sodas D．diet soda drinkers and sweetener takers
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。
36 You probably think you will never be a top student. This is not necessarily so, however. Anyone can become a better student if he or she wants to. Here is how.
l Plan your time carefully.
When planning your week, you should make a list of things that you have to do. After making the list，you should make a schedule of your time. First arrange（安排） your time for eating, sleeping, dressing, etc. Then decide a good, regular time for studying. 37 A weekly schedule may not solve all the problems, but it will force you to realize what is happening to your time.
l Find a good place to study.
Look around the house for a good study area. Keep this place, which may be a desk or simply a corner of your room, free of everything but study materials. No games, radios or TV！When you sit down to study，concentrate on the subject.
l Make good use of your time in class.
38 _Good listening habit in class means less work later. Taking class notes will help you remember what the teacher says.
l Study regularly.
When you get home from schools, go over your notes. Review the important points that your teacher has mentioned in class. If you know what your teacher is going to discuss the next day, read the material. 39 If you do these things regularly，the material will become more meaningful, and you will remember it longer.
l Develop a good attitude towards the tests.
The purpose of a test is to show what you have learned about a subject. They help you to remember your new knowledge. The world won't end if you don't pass a test, so don't be overly worried.
40 You will probably discover many others after you have tried these.
A．Don't forget to set aside enough time for entertainment.
B．There are other methods that might help you with your studying.
C．Make full use of class time to take notes of what the teacher says in class.
D．No one can become a top student unless he or she works hard.
E．Maybe you are an average student.
F．This will help you understand the next class.
