Some even win local talent competitions as children, but only a few such early successes and dreams turn into reality. Jessica Andrews is one of the few whose dreams have come true. Andrews, first taste of success came at the age of 10. She won a talent competition in her home town of Huntingdon, Tennessee, singing I Will Always Love You, originally sung by Whitney Houston. Houston's version of the song appeared on The Bodyguard sound track, which happened to be the first album Andrews ever bought. Within two years, talk of Andrews had spread to Nashville and caught the attention of producer Byron Gallimore, whose credits include work with Tim McGraw, Faith Hill, and Jo Dee Messina.With Gallimore signed on to produce, Andrews soon had a recording contract (合同)with Dream Works' Nashville label. Andrews' professional career was launched with 1999's Heart Shaped World, recorded when she was 14 years old. The album included the country hit I Will Be There For You, which also appeared on The Prince Of Egypt. She followed up the release of the album by touring as a support act for such country superstars as Faith Hill and Trisha Yearwood. With the release of 2001’s Who I Am, Andrews became a star in her own right. The album was certified (证明)gold for sales of 500,000 copies. Andrews returned in April 2003 with Now,an album that she promised would show a new side of the young artist. "This album has a very different feeling for me," she said. "It's a lot more personal and there's a confidence that wasn't quite there on the first two. I feel especially connected to this group of songs."56. What's the meaning of the underlined word “launched”in the fourth paragraph?A. Aimed. B. Sent. C. Started. D. Set.57. Which of the following statements is WRONG according to the passage?A. The Bodyguard was the first album Andrews ever bought.B. After Andrews sang Who I Am,she became a star in her own right.C. I Will Always Love You was originally sung by Whitney Houston.D. Now expresses a new feeling of Andrews.58. Which of the following may NOT be Andrews' album?A. Now. B. Heart Shaped World. C. The Prince of Egypt. D. Who I Am.59. Which of the following is the best title of the passage?A. Jessica Andrews' Life B. Jessica Andrews' DreamC. Jessica Andrews' Songs D. Jessica Andrews' Success as a Singer
B The brightest object in the evening sky after the sun and the moon isn't a star, but a planet. It's Venus,our closest neighbor and the second planet from the sun. Venus is so bright that you can see it both at night and in the early morning. This caused some confusion for ancient Egyptian (埃及的)and Greek (希腊的)star observers. Because they saw Venus at two different times, they thought it was two different planets. What makes Venus so bright? Huge clouds, 20 miles thick, completely surround it and reflect 75% of the light from the sun that strike them. For a long time, these clouds caused Venus to be a great mystery (谜)to the world's astronomers. If, like other clouds, the ones on Venus were made up of water vapors (水汽),could there not be life hiding beneath them on the planet? Were there “Venusians (金星人)” waiting to communicate with us on Earth? It was an exciting thought, but on that the Mariner recently landed to rest. The Mariner thoroughly examined Venus and its atmosphere, only to find that the cloud cover was made mostly of deadly carbon dioxide (二氧化碳)gas. The atmospheric pressure was 15 to 22 times greater than on Earth, which further disproved the theory of life on Venus. And what did the Mariner find under the clouds? A world of great mountains and smooth areas, dry as a bone. The temperature is about 900°F. That's hot. Although the greatest mystery has been solved, there are still others waiting for us on Venus. Why does Venus rotate (自转)so slowly? What is the inside of Venus like? And most important of all, why is there no water on Venus? If, as it was thought, it was formed about the same time as our planet, it should have water. These questions and others may some day be answered. Until then, Venus will continue to be the brightest mystery in the sky.60. Venus is very bright because ________ .A. the clouds surrounding it take in 75% of the sunlight striking themB. the clouds surrounding it throw back 3/4 of the sunlight striking themC. 75% of the clouds surrounding it are made up of water vaporD. 3/4 of the clouds surrounding it are made up of carbon dioxide gas61. "The Mariner" is probably the name of _______.A. an astronomer B. a planet C. a star D. a spaceship62. From the passage we can tell that _________ .A. astronomers still wonder whether Venus is as old as the Earth B. Venusians are trying to get in touch with us on EarthC. there are many volcanoes and other natural wonders on VenusD. whether there is life on Venus is still a question 63. What section of a newspaper is the passage probably taken from?A. Scientific Technology B. Science Fictions C. Brief News D. Science & Discovery CRead these unusual news articles.1.Tom Smith has been banned from the bedroom by fed-up wife Mary: She gave him his marching orders after Tom had been hiccupping(打嗝) none for seven days. She sent her husband to the spare bedroom.2. A senior Swiss school teacher aged 105 was told to go to school. Apparently, a computer error had taken a century off his age. The former history teacher said, “I’m sure I could still learn something.”3. Company managers had to order 15,000 pairs of men’s trousers to be returned from shops all over France. A woman factory worker had put itching(瘙痒的) powder in them because her husband had left her to live with another woman and she wanted revenge(复仇). The police have not been involved in the case.4. Queen Elizabeth II of England is well known for enjoying doing jigsaw puzzles(拼图游戏). But it seems her pet dogs are also helping her complete the puzzles. “ sometimes the puzzles come back and pieces have been chewed,”said Pearl Hastings who runs the puzzle lending library. “Of course, I cannot say anything to her,”She added.5. An English man named Boverall had his final wish realized after he died last week. Boverall wanted to leave life with a bang(突然的巨响),so his ashes were put into a metal box and fired from an old gun. The box was buried where it landed—about a kilometer away from his home in Sizely Bottom. His son, Maximiian, said, “My father always liked making a loud noise”.6. the average American family of four uses about 50,000 sheets of toilet paper a year. It also keeps a total of 8 rolls in reserve in case of emergencies.7. A recent poll(民意调查) in France shows that married couples argue more about which program to watch on TV than their children’s education. These mums and dads also fight about money--- how to spend it, not how to make it.8. Bugs Bunny has shown a little too much fur in a recent cartoon. As the carrot-loving rabbit came out of a shower, his whole body was shown. Walt Disney bosses decided to edit the film to protect Bugs Bunny’s natural shyness.64. A Swiss school teacher _______ .A. went back to school happily after his retirement B. lost his job because he was not youngC. was asked to attend school because of a computer mistake D. was ready to have further education65. 15,000 pairs of trousers were _______ .A. made for the police B. damaged by a female workerC. designed for men who cheated on their wives D. too tight and itchy to wear66. Boverall _______ .A. liked firing guns B. wanted to die in a gun fightC. kept his ashes in a gun box D. wanted his ashes to be fired from a gun67. What can we learn according to the above news?A. Married couples in France worry about money. B. American families use more toilet paper now.C. Queen Elizabeth II has some naughty pet dogs. D. Bugs Bunny will be protected in the coming films. D Bad teeth can be painful — and worse. They can even be deadly. Infections (感染)of the gums (牙龈)and the teeth can cause bacteria (细菌)to go into the blood system. Those bacteria can increase the chance of a heart attack and worsen the effects of other diseases. And adults are not the only ones at risk. For example, in 2007, doctors in the Washington area said a boy died when a tooth infection spread to his brain. They said it might have been prevented had he received the dental care (牙齿 保健)he needed. He was twelve years old. Experts at the National Institutes of Health say good dental care starts at birth. Breast milk, they say, is the best food for the healthy development of teeth. Breast milk can help slow the growth of bacteria and acid production in the mouth. But dentists say a baby's gums and early teeth should be cleaned after each feeding. Use a cloth with a little warm water. Do the same if a baby is fed with a bottle. Experts say if you decide to put your baby to sleep with a bottle, only give the child water. When baby teeth begin to appear, you can clean them with a wet toothbrush. Dentists say it is important to find soft toothbrushes made especially for babies and to use them very gently. The use of fluoride (氟化物)to protect teeth is common in many parts of the world. For example, it is often added to drinking water supplies. The fluoride mixes with enamel (法琅质), the hard surface on teeth, to help prevent holes from forming.68. Which of the following can be used as the title of the passage?A. Concerns for Healthy Teeth of the Young B. Importance of Healthy Teeth of AllC. Causes of Teeth Problem D. Solutions to Teeth Problem69. What's the main idea of paragraph 4 and 5?A. How to develop babies' teeth. B. Why to protect babies' teethC. How to keep babies' teeth clean D. Why to keep babies' teeth clean70. The passage indicates that _______ .A. enamel is most widely used to protect teeth in the world B. bad teeth may affect the health of adults and the youngC. breast milk can cure babies' bad teeth D. babies' teeth should be brushed once per day71. The writer uses the boy's death as an example to show that _______.A. not only adults but the young may suffer from teeth problem B. babies with bad teeth can easily dieC. the doctors should be responsible for the case D. the boy was not fed with his breast milk E For my grandmother's 70th birthday, my family and I visited South Korea. While there, I was attentive to Korean high schools and students. I was surprised by how different Korea's public high schools are from America's. Korean high schools can be all-girls, all-boys or co-ed (男女同校的)unlike our standard co-ed high schools. There are three grades: “go 1”(10th),"go 2” (11th) and ‘‘go 3” (12th). ‘‘Go”is the first syllable of the word “go-deung -hakkyo", which, simply translated, is “high school”. In America, unless you want to go to a private school, you don't have to take an entrance exam. In Korea, however, students must take a test to get in because of the many choices of schools. Another difference I couldn't help but notice was the students' appearance. With very few exceptions, all wear uniforms. A name tag (标牌)with the student's name, grade and homeroom number must also be worn. Girl's skirts can't be above the upper part of the knee, and it is forbidden to dye (染)your hair or wear accessories (装饰品)except small earrings. There are strict regulations for appearance to achieve neatness, and it seems the only freedom students have is with their choices of hair style, socks and shoes. The final difference was the setup of the classes. There may be 40 students in a classroom, but the number can be less or even more, depending on the population of the town or city. Although there are many students per classroom, they are very close, which I think is a result of not changing classrooms for different subjects. There are no levels in the subjects and the teachers are the ones who switch classrooms. They just have ten-minute breaks between subjects. In each class, students are ranked by their grades. This causes strict competition, and Korean students do a lot of studying. To help them, all schools have extra study classes after school. One other fact that helped me appreciate living in America is that Koreans have school on Saturdays. Although it's only a half day, I think I speak for most Americans when I say we could never imagine ourselves in school on a Saturday. Korea's public high schools are clearly different from America's. I had imagined them to be just like our schools, but now I have a clear picture of how different they are.72. How many main differences are mentioned between Korea's public high school and America's?A. 3. B. 4. C. 5. D. 6.73. It seems that the writer _______ .A. is familiar with the education system of high schools in Korea B. is fond of Korean students' appearanceC. prefers the high school life of America to the one of Korea D. feels it common to have lessons on weekends74. What does the underlined word "setup" in paragraph 5 probably mean?A. Arrangement. B. Size. C. Number. D. Outline.75. According to the rules, the students of Korea can _______ .A. go to different high schools without exams B. wear any clothes except uniforms at schoolC. attend different classes as they like D. have different hair styles第II卷(非选择题共35分)第四部分写作(共两节,满分35分)第一节 任务型阅读(每小题1分,满分10分)请认真阅读下列短文,并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填入一个最恰当的单词。(注意:每个空格只填1个单词。) A serious problem for today's society is who should be responsible for our elderly and how to improve their lives. It is not only a financial problem but also a question of the system we want for our society. I would like to suggest several possible solutions to this problem. First, employers should take the responsibility for their retired employees. To make this possible, a percentage of profits should be set aside for this purpose. But when a company must take life-long responsibility for its employees, it may suffer from a commercial disadvantage due to higher employee costs. Another way of solving the problem is to return the responsibility to the individual (个人). This means each person must save during his working years to pay for his years of retirement. This does not seem a very fair model since some people have enough trouble paying for their daily life without trying to earn extra to cover their retirement years. This means the government might have to step in to care for the poor. In addition, the government could take responsibility for the care of the elderly. This could be financed through government taxes to increase the level of pensions (养老金).Furthermore, some institutions (社会福利机构)should be created for senior citizens, which can help provide a comfortable life for them. Unfortunately, as the present situation in our country shows,this is not a truly practical answer. The government can seldom afford to care for the elderly, particularly when it is busy trying to care for the young. One further solution is that the government or social organizations set up some working places especially for the elderly where they are independent. To sum up, all these measures have advantages and disadvantages. Therefore, it is reasonable to expect that some combination of these measures may be needed to provide the care we hope to give to our elderly generations. Title: More 76 Should be Given to the ElderlyTopic Who should take the responsibility for the 77_______ of the lives of the elderly?
78_______ to the problem
79_______ should set a percentage of profits aside, which may 80_______ a commercial disadvantage.
Individuals should save during his working years to pay for the years when he is 81_______ .
The government could provide 82_______ through government taxes to increase the level of pensions.
Workplaces for the elderly .where they can enjoy 83_______ should be set up.84_______ It is necessary to 85 _______these measures to provide the care to the elderly第二节 书面表达(满分25分) 尽管父母爱我如初,但随着年龄的增长,眼界的开阔,对父母的期待也有所不同,请就“ Perfect Parents in My Mind”为题写一篇120词左右的短文,谈谈理想中的父母应该是什么样。

I do want to make my own decisions and lead my own life. Therefore, I do wish they would allow me to make decisions sometimes. I wish they’d understand that working hard to prepare for university does not mean reading textooks and doing a sea of exercises only; Other activities also count, like sports, music and extensive reading. I wish they would take me as equal; they would include me in any decision making in the family, for I’m a member and should have my voice heard. If only my parents not only love me, but trust me, and understand me as well.
