I found an ad for selling greeting cards in the back of a children’s magazine. I thought to myself I could do this. I begged my mother to let me send for the kit (配件). Two weeks later the kit arrived. The next three hours later, I returned home with no card and a pocket full of money shouting, “Mama, all the people couldn’t wait to buy my cards!” A salesperson was born. When I was twelve years old, my father took me to see Zig Ziegler. I remember sitting in the dark hall listening to Mr. Ziegler raise everyone’s spirits up to ceiling. I left there feeling like I could do anything. When we got to the car, I turned to my father and said, “Dad, I want to make people feel like that.” My father asked me what I meant. “I want to be a motivational speaker just like Mr. Ziegler,” I replied. A dream was born.Recently, I began pursuing my dream of motivating(激励)others. I realized that everything I had achieved — a good education, the successful sales career, speaking appointments, training and managing for a major fortune 100 company as a senior manager— had prepared me for this moment. I told my boss I would leave the company though I might not reach such a height in career. He told me to move on and he believed I would succeed.Having made that decision, I was immediately tested. One week after I quit my job, my husband was laid off from his job. We had recently bought a new home and needed both incomes to make the monthly mortgage (抵押) payment and now we were done to no income. I even planned to turn back to my former company, knowing they wanted me to stay but I was certain that if I went back, I would never leave. I decided I still wanted to move forward instead of ending up with a mouth full of “if onlys” later on. A motivational speaker was born.When I held fast to my dream, even during the tough times, the miracles(奇迹) really began to happen. In a short time period my husband found a better job. We didn’t miss a mortgage payment. And I was able to book several speaking appointments with new clients (客户). I discovered the incredible power of dreams. I loved my old job, my workmates and the company I left, but it was time to get on with my dream. To celebrate my success I had a local artist paint my new office as a garden. At the top of one wall she marked, “The world always makes way for the dreamer.”50.Why was the kit sent for?A. Selling greeting cards. B. Collecting greeting cards.C. Buying greeting cards. D. Sending greeting cards.51.When did the author decide to become a motivational speaker?A. After buying a new home by mortgage.B. After leaving her secure position in the company.C.

She left her post at the height of her career.C. She was not sure whether the former company could accept her.D. She didn’t miss paying the monthly mortgage payment.53.What does the underlined sentence mean in the last paragraph?A. Carry on with your dreams and you will be successful.B.

COne of our biggest fears nowadays is that our kids might have spent too much time with electronic devices (电子设备) rather than experiencing the natural world. Fear-producing TV and computer games are leading to a serious disconnect between kids and the great outdoors, which will change the wild places of the world, its creatures and human health for the worse, unless adults get working on child’s play.Each of us had a place in nature we go sometimes, even if it was torn down. We cannot be the last generation to have that place. At this rate, kids who miss the sense of wonder outdoors will not grow up to be protectors of natural landscapes(风景). “If the decrease in parks use continues across North America, who will defend parks against encroachment(蚕食)?” asks Richard Louv, author of Last Child in the Woods.Without having a nature experience, kids can turn out just fine, but they are missing out a huge enrichment of their lives. That applies to everything from their physical health and mental health, to stress levels, creativity and cognitive(认知的)skills. Experts predict modern kids will have poorer health than their parents---and they say a lack of outside play is surely part of it; research suggests that kids do better in schools with a nature experience and that play in nature fosters(培养)leadership. Even a tiny outdoor experience can create wonder in a child. The three-year-old turning over his first rock realizes he is not alone in the world. A clump(丛) of trees on the roadside can be the whole universe in his eyes. We really need to value that more. Kids are not to blame. They are over-protected and frightened. It is dangerous out there from time to time, but repetitive stress from computers is taking the place of breaking an arm as a childhood rite(仪式)of passage.Everyone from developers to schools and outdoorsy citizens, should help our kids have some of the freedom and joy of exploring, taking friendship in fields and woods that strengthen love, and need for the landscape. As parents, we should devote some of our energies to taking our kids into nature. This could yet be our greatest cause.57. Which of the following is NOT listed as a reason for children being disconnected with nature?A. The wild has been more dangerous than ever.B. Parents are too protective of their children.C. TV plays sometimes inspire fear into children’s heart.D. Many children are lost in the world of technology.58. According to the passage, children without experiencing nature will __________.A. keep a high sense of wonder B. change wild places and creatures for the betterC. be over-protected by their parents D. be less healthy both physically and mentally59. In writing this passage, the author mainly intends to __________.A. blame children for getting lost in computer games B. encourage children to protect parks from encroachmentC. show his concern about children’s lack of experience in natureD. inspire children to keep the sense of wonder about things around60. Which of the following can be used as the title for the passage?A. Let children have more time to play B. Getting closer to nature relieves stressC. Outdoor activities build up character D. Take kids to nature more often for their growthDWhen looking for love, people may go to some extreme lengths. They might go on blind dates set up by family and friends. They might write personal ad to place in newspapers. Or they might use a computer to help them in their search for a soul mate by joining an online dating service. Some people have even tried to find their perfect match through game shows on television. Many of these TV dating shows, including The Bachelor and Who Wants to Marry Multimillionaire?, have proved to be popular, with millions of viewers watching each week to find out which of the contestants(选手) will find true love.Of all these game shows, perhaps the one with the most unexpected ending was Mr. Right, which was shown in England in 2002. On the show, a bachelor, thirty-five-year-old Lance Gerrard-Wright, dated fifteen women to find the one who was his ideal partner. The host of the show was Ulrika Jonsson, an English celebrity (名人) originally from Sweden. For seven weeks on the show, Lance took turns going on dates with each of the women, taking them to expensive restaurants and romantic locations. He even met the women's families and introduced them to his own. Then at the end of each episode(集), he would choose between one and three of the contestants with whom he had felt the least compatible(相容的), and say goodbye to them.At one point during the series, one contestant volunteered to leave because she said she didn’t find him attractive. After two dates she said she had had enough, and she couldn’t see it working, “He wasn’t my cup of tea.” In another episode the woman he was on a date with burst into tears when he called her by another girl’s name. “You called me by another girl’s name. I can’t believe you did that. I really liked you,” she said in tears.But in the final episode, the woman he eventually chose decided she didn’t want to marry him after all. “I think you’ve chosen me because you have to choose someone,” she said. Maybe this was because she already knew he had fallen in love with the show’s host!After leaving the show, Gerrard-Wright and Jonsson were seen dining together and attending parties around London more and more often. Finally, on May 1, 2003, Gerrard-Wright proposed to Jonsson on the steps of St. Paul’s Cathedral. And she accepted his proposal right away, although she had to make sure that her two children from previous relationships—an eight-year-old son, Cameron, and a two-year-old daughter, Bo. agreed to the marriage. Luckily, they did. Gerrard-Wright said, “In the end the show did work for me. I grabbed an opportunity to get a girlfriend and I did. Ulrika's amazing”The happy couple finally got married at Jonsson’s home in Sweden on the island of Varmdo. They wanted to keep the ceremony small, so only forty people were invited, including family and friends. There was some gossip at the time that Jonsson’s friends who did not receive invitations to the wedding felt upset. But the bride and groom did not let that ruin their wedding day.Has Ulrika Jonsson finally found Mr. Right? Only time will tell. But none of the guests at the wedding could deny the happiness in the couple’s eyes as the bride and groom left the wedding ceremony with the music of Stevie Wonder playing in the background, “Seen a lot of things in this old world. When I touched them, they did nothing, girl. Ooh baby, here I am, signed, sealed, delivered, I’m yours.”61. What is this passage mainly about?A. how a famous couple met and got married B. the best way to meet a husband or wifeC. why the show Mr. Right was a big hit D. how to act on a date with a stranger62. What happened after seven weeks of doing the show?A. All of the women won prizes. B. Lance asked one of the women to marry him.C. One of the women on the show started to cry. D. Ulrika asked Lance to marry her.63. Which of the following did NOT happen during the series?A. Lance went on dates with several women.B. Lance took the women to some very good restaurants.C. Lance and Ulrika started dating each other.D. The women met Lance’s family.64. Why did some of Ulrika’s friends feel upset?A. They didn’t agree with the marriage. B. They weren’t asked to attend the wedding.C. There weren’t enough guests at the wedding. D. They didn’t like Lance.65. In Stevie Wonder’s song, what is he comparing himself to? A. A blind man B. A groom C. A letter D. A baby第二节:下面文章有4处(第66~69题)需要添加小标题。请从以下选项(A、B、C、D、和E)中选出符合各段意思的小标题, 选项中有一项是多余选项。A.Take actionB.Accept YourselfC.Maintain a DiaryD.Focus on YourselfE.Give Yourself a breakHow to Find YourselfDo you often feel lost?Do you think you are living somebody else’s life? If yes, discover ways to find yourself by going through the following article.66. __________If you are thinking, “how to find yourself when you are lost?”, then the first thing to do is to have a rest from everything—work, personal life and all worldly things. Give time to yourself to think why you seem lost. Is it because of over work? Is it because you are not leading a life that you want to? Or is it because you are not satisfied with the people or things around you? Try to find answers to these questions to determine the cause behind your restlessness.67. __________For once, instead of being the way others want you to be, be yourself. Look within and find yourself in you. Think about the things that you would want to do if you didn’t have any family obligations or any money issues. Think about the kind of relationship you would want to be in, the place that you would like to stay in, the kind of lifestyle you would like to lead, if you didn’t have the society or people around you, judging all the time. If you really want to know how to find inner peace, then think, what you would want others to describe you as—an honest person? Or adventurous, or loving, or realistic? Once you look within, you will know the answer and then try to be exactly that.68. __________Knowing yourself and determining what you to do with your life will not come to you in a day or two. Discovering oneself is an ongoing process and it can take months or sometimes even years to truly find yourself. So, it’s important that you maintain a written record of all your feelings and thoughts, which you can go through at a later stage. Pour all your emotions and feelings about life in it and who knows may be one day going through it, you will find yourself.69. __________Once you have discovered what you want to do with your life, make a move for change and self improvement. Even if it means taking up small things such as dancing or painting, go ahead and do it. If you want a career change, plan and take steps so that it can take place smoothly. If you are stuck in a bad relationship and find yourself unable to mend it, break away. At the beginning, you may find yourself slightly unbalanced, but with time everything will be fine.It is very important for you to truly find yourself, before it is too late. If you do not find yourself now, you will spend your life with somebody you do not even know, i.e. yourself.

On this point, people hold quite different views. Some believe it can help students relieve their stress and provide them with a stage to show themselves while others have totally contrary opinion. They think managing a blog requires much time and energy, which may affect their study.
Personally, I do approve of students writing blogs. Nowadays, the Internet is playing a vital role in our life whose influence can’t be ignored. As high school students in the information age, it’s essential to make the most of this communication tool for better study and life. As a matter of fact, whether blogging is of harm depends on how we employ it. If we can take advantage of blogging and meanwhile avoid its negative effects, we can surely benefit a lot from it.
