hadn’t become a singer. The father said he had 36 considered anything else. This was his Plan A. There had been no Plan B. I 37 this to my son Marty, who was studying musical theater at
college,when he was thinking about a second 38 in business or teaching.
“Just study what you’re interested in ,” I said.

The wisest parents are the ones who 48 their children toward the things that already
interest them. It’s 49 that sometimes such parents will feel afraid. When Marty stepped into
the extraordinarily 50 field of performance, I was worried about his future. Yet I have
watched him grow. I have witnessed the 51 he has made to run after his dream, and how
much he has enjoyed the 52 .
It may be that my son will 53 because of dreaming big. But I believe that seeking one’s
own dream is one’s only real chance of happiness. I’d rather he 54 than hung back.（退缩）.

黑。A
Forgiving is easy. Forgeting the experience that comes before the forgiveness, however,
always remains with us. Choosing to forgive means choosing to let go of the bad or negative
emotions that one experiences so that we can live in peace and harmony.
Five years ago I went through a painful divorce. My elder brother, a great believer of our
faith, was very angry at my decision to divorce. Despite his response I felt my decision was
correct. After two years of arguing over the phone and hurtful words in emails my brother and I
ended our friendship in a cold silence.
Out of the blue(意想不到地) he visited the same city that I was living in to see our mother. I
thought for nights about how to react to his visit. I sought advice from many friends---all of whom
said I should wait for his apology before trying to repair our friendship. Since I had done nothing
wrong, it was he that needed to come to me.
A very close friend advised me otherwise. He said, “Choose to be the bigger person here;
forgive and forget. Let go and move on.” Though his words gave me courage, I still felt very
angry and betrayed(背叛). My dear friend gave me a gentle shove(推，促使) and even stayed on
the phone while I went over to greet my brother and family. When I did, I felt so relieved.I felt
peace at last!
Todady I am so grateful to my friend for encouraging me. If I hadn’t taken his advice, I
wouldn’t enjoy the loving relationship that I do now with all of my family. Still, it would be a lie
if I said that I didn’t think about the past sometimes. The difference is that I do not feel angry. I
am at peace and have a greater understanding and acceptance of the whole experience. In short I
feel I have grown since then.
56. In the author’s opinion, the purpose of forgiving is _________.
A. to forget the unpleasant experience
B.to make up with relatives or friends
C.to let go of the bad or negative emotions
D. to make ourselves live in peace and harmony
57. What was the problem between the author and her elder brother ?
A. They had different attitudes of life.
B. They had different views towards her marriage.
C. They belonged to different political parties.
D.They had a quarrel about properties.
58. What drove the author to forgive her brother?
A. One close friend’s encouragement.
B. The friend’s staying on the phone.
C. Her mother’s persuasion.
D. Her own understanding with growth.
59. It can be inferred that the author______.
A. realized her mistake in her divorce in the end
B. learned how to forget unpleasant experiences
C. felt having learned to forgive means growth
D.thought friendship is the most important of all
BThe Royal Horticultural Society(RHS) finds that women gardeners’ voices speed up the
growth of tomato plants much more than men’s.
In an experiment, the researchers found that tomato plants grew up to two inches taller if they
were sung to by a female rather than a male.
The most effective voice came from Sarah Darwin, whose great-great grandfather was the
botanist(植物学家) Charles Darwin, one of the founding fathers of the RHS.
She read a passage from the On the Origin of Species and beat nine other ‘voices’. Her plant
grew nearly two inches taller than the best performing male and half an inch higher than her
nearest competitor.
Colin Crosbie, Garden Manager at the RHS, said, “We predicted that the male voice would
be more effective but it turned out that the ladies’ voice was far better than the gentlemen’s. We
just don’t know why. It could be because they have a greater range of pitch(高音) and tone(音色)
that affects the sound waves that hit the plant.The sound wave is on environmental effect just like
rain or light.”
In the experiment, every plant was played a different voice through earphones connected to
the plant pot, and the environmental conditions for all the plants remained the same throughout the
experiment. To ensure that the results of the experiment were convincing, two plants were also left
to grow in silence.
The results showed that women on average saw their plants grow an inch taller than their
male counterparts(对手) and much more than the plants left in complete silence.
Miss Darwin said, “I’m not sure if it’s my sweet tones or the text that I read from On the
Origin of Species that made the plant sit up and listen, but either way, I think it is an honor to have
such a voice, and it is especially fitting for me, because for years I have been studying wild
tomatoes at the Natural History Museum(NHM) in London.”
60. How many tomato plants were chosen for this experiment?
A. 9. B. 10. C. 11. D.12.
61. What can we learn about Sarah Darwin?
A.She is very proud of her sweet voice..
B. She is one of the founding fathers of the RHS.
C. She has discovered why her voice benefits plants.
D. She will work at the NHM in London after the experiment.
62. Why were two plants left to grow in silence in the experiment?
A. To make the results of the experiment trustworthy.
B. To convince people that sound waves are better than rain and light.
C. To help find out how many inches plants can grow with the help of voices.
D. To prove that the environmental conditions for the plants remained the same.
63. What can be inferred from the passage?
A. The text from On the Origin of Species can help plants grow..
B. Sarah’s nearest competitor was also a woman..
C.Men’s voices have a greater range of pitch and tone than women’s..
D.Colin Crosbie predicted that women’s voices were better for the plant than men’s.
C
One potential prolem with allowances (零用钱) is that children’s reponsible behavior can become about earning the allowance rather than the intrinsic ( 固有的) value of their family
responsibilities. For example, if you pay your children for taking out the trash, they see this
chore (家务事) as a job that they should be rewarded for instead of a responsibility they must
fulfil as part of the family. But giving children an allowance for weekly chores is not
necessarily bad. You are rewarding them for fulfilling their family responsibilities, but it is not
for a specific act. Rather, it is an appreciation of their commitment to your family values.You
are also conveying another important message that their actions have consequences: if they do
good things, good things happen. They also learn a lesson about the market economy, namely,
that work is rewarded.
Allowances can also be used as punishment and to teach children lessons about family
values. For example, if your children join a group of kids smashing ( 炸 碎 ) pumpkins on
Halloween, a part of a reasonable punishment might be to require them to pay the families out
of their allowances to replace the pumpkins. Thus, your children learn that bad behavior has
financial consequences. Also, by relating the punishment to the misdeed, you ensure that your
children see the connection and learn the value lesson.
How much allowance should you pay your children? The precise amount depends on
your family’s financial situation, the cost of living and your children’s needs. Children can
start to earn a weekly allowance as early as 5 years of age. An increase of $1 per week for
each year of your children’s lives is realistic until they reach their mid-teens. When they begin
to drive and date, you can calculate their expenses and establish a reasonable allowance that
covers their needs.
64. How many advantages of giving allowances are mentioned in the passage?
A. One. B.Two. C.Three. D.Four.
65. According to the author,_____ .
A.giving children an allowance for weekly chores will certainly cause problems
B.it is better to reward children for fulfilling family responsibilities than for a specific act
C.you can’t give your chidren allowances unless they do good deeds
D.it is unnecessary for small children to learn about the market economy
66.The precise allowance amount you should pay your chidren depends on all the following
factors EXCEPT ___ .
A. the living standard in your area
B. how rich or poor your family is
C. how much other children receive
D. the actual needs of your chidren
67. It can be inferred that________.
A.The author doesn’t want to give any tips on allowance amounts
B. allowance given to chidren of different ages may vary
C.children under 5 can’t be given any allowance
D. allowance amounts grow at the same speed with your chidren
D
It is the season…for long lines and frayed (紧张的) nerves. Here’s how to deal.
Lighten upDo youreslf a favor and ship your presents. Nearly every U.S. airline charges a fee to check a
bag, so shipping gifts is now cheaper and more convenient than carrying them in your luggage.
Weigh your options
Now knowing what you’re going to pay for your luggage is annoying. So calculate your
overweight-luggage fees at home. You can find the fees out in advance by visiting new site
Luggage Limits, which provides the latest information on more than 90 airlines.
Leave amateurs in the dust
Trust us and get to the airport an extra half-hour early. The check-in and security lines are
filled with inexperienced fliers, and it’s a hard walking. Plus, if you decide to cut it close, you may
not get onto the flight at all. To reduce costs, airlines have reduced on flights and routes. The
remaining flights are more likely to be oversold, especially on busy travel days. Fliers who check
in early are the least likely to get bumped from oversold flights.
Take it public
The rates for renting a car at the airport have more than doubled over the past year because
rental lot inventories(财产) have increased dramatically. True, renting at the airport is convenient,
but it’s just not worth it anymore. Unless you really need a car, take public transportation, hop a
cab, or beg a friend to pick you up at the airport instead.
Say no to bumper cars
Tell the people picking you up to avoid parking their car. They can hang out in their car for
free while waiting to get a call from you when you land. Many airports, including JFK and LAX,
now feature this sensible choice.
68.Airlines have reduced flights to___ .
A. deal with crisis B. reduce the time for leave
C.lower the cost D. provide more job chances
69. We can learn from the passage that____ .
A. taking a taxi at the airport is expensive
B. taxis stay at the airport free of charge
C. cars can park at the airport for free
D. JFK encourages people to take a taxi
70. What’s the best title for the passage?
A. 5 Ways to Survey a Holiday Flight. B. Good Seasons for Flight
C. Cars at the Airport D. How to Board a Flight
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出的最佳选项。选项中有两项多余选项。
71
Frankly, I very much appreciate myself. Yes, I admit I’m in many respects(方面) not as good as
other people, but I don’t think I’m always not good. When I find what I’ve done or written is okay,
I’ll remain pleased with myself for quite a few days, and in case I receive praise for it, I’ll even
become so excited as to add a few words to glorify(赞美) myself.
True, I’m not modest at all. 72 But I think otherwise.
73 I appreciate anything good. Isn’t it unfair to forget appreciating myself while
appreciating others?
We Chinese are generally inclined(倾向的) to be modest, and we take pride in being so. For
example, a Chinese will call his own wife zhuojing, meaning “my humble wife”, and his own writings zhuozuo, meaning “my poor writings”. But if you should call his wife a “rustic(乡巴佬)
woman” or his writings “trash”, he would , I’m sure, slap the table in a rage and declare he would
make a clean break with you. 74
I don’t think it’s wrong for you to freely praise yourself if you’re really worthy of praise. As
we know, there is an old Chinese saying disparaging(轻视的) a melon peddler, named Lao Wang,
who keeps praising his own goods. Well, why can’t he praise his melons if they are really weet
and juicy?
Friends, Lao Wang sells melons for a living. How could he carry on business if he, by
imitating the affections of us intellectuals(知识分子)，were to show false modesty about his
melons? He would sure enough die of starvation.
Self-appreciation is therefore key to professional dedication(贡献) and enjoyment of work..
75 Needless to say, the same is true of those who make a living with their pen.
A. I also appreciate other people.
B. On Self-control
C. On Self-Appreciation
D. People may call me conceited(自负的).
E. We need appreciate ourselves.
F. One will lose confidence in continuing with writing when he ceases(停止) to admire his
own essays.
G. As a matter of fact, there is probably no differenc at all between what is said by him and
you respectively(各别地).

Dear Sir,
I choose to study gardening. I’d like to learn how to plant different kinds of grass, flowers
and trees in the garden. Besides, I want to know how I should maintain the grass in different
seasons. Above all, I’d appreciate it if you can teach me how to design a garden.
I prefer gardening for my chosen course for the following reasons: If I have a knowledge of
gardening, I can help make the environment beautiful. At the same time, I will make full use of
my spare time to come close to nature and make my mind and manners cultivated.
