Parents often believe that they have a good relationship with their teenagers. But last summer, Joanna and Henry noticed a change in their older son: suddenly he seemed to be talking far more to his friends than to his parents. “The door to his room is always shut,” Joanna noted.
Tina and Mark noticed similar changes in their 14-year-old daughter. “ She used to cuddle up (蜷伏) with me on the sofa and talk,” said Mark. “Now we joke that she does this only when she wants something. Sometimes she wants to be treated like a little girl and sometimes like a young lady. The problem is figuring out which time is which.”
Before age 11, children like to tell their parents what’s on their minds. “In fact, parents are first on the list,” said Michael Riera, author of Uncommon Sense
10
for Parents with Teenagers. “This completely changes during the teen years,” Riera explained. “They talk to their friends first, then maybe their teachers, and their parents last.”
Parents who know what’s going on in their teenagers’ lives are in the best position to help them. To break down the wall of silence, parents should create chances to understand what their children want to say, and try to find ways to talk and write to them. And they must give their children a mental (精神的) break, for children also need freedom, though young. Another thing parents should remember is that to be a friend, not a manager, with their children is a better way to know them.
28. “The door to his room is always shut” in Paragraph1 suggests that the son ____.
A. is always busy with his studies B. doesn’t want to be disturbed (打扰)
C. keeps himself away from his parents D. begins to dislike his parents
29. What troubles Tina and Mark most is that _____.
A. their daughter isn’t as lovely as before
B. they can’t read their daughter’s mind exactly
C. they don’t know what to say to their daughter
D. their daughter talks with them only when she needs help
30. According to the passage, who’s first on the list to communicate with when a teenager is in trouble?
A. The teachers. B. Their friends. C. Their parents. D. Nobody.
31. What can be learned from the passage?
A. Parents are unhappy with their growing children.
B. Parents have good ways to talk with their teenagers.
C. Parents should be patient with their silent teenagers.
D. Parents should try to understand their teenagers.
D
Your body, which has close relations with the food you eat, is the most important thing you own, so it needs proper treatment and proper nourishment(营养，滋养品). The old saying “An apple a day keeps the doctor away” is not as silly as some people think.
The body needs fruit and vegetables because they contain vitamin C. Many people take extra vitamins(维生素) in pill form, believing that these will make them healthy. But a good diet is made up of nourishing food and this gives all the vitamins you need. The body doesn't need extra vitamins, so why waste money on them?
In the modern western world, many people are too busy to bother about eating properly. They throw anything into their stomachs, eating hurriedly and carelessly.
10
The list of illness caused or made by bad eating habits is frightening.
32. “Your body has close relations with the food you eat” really means that _______.
A. all kinds of food you eat can be made into your body
B. your body is made up of the food you eat
C. what you eat has great effects on your health
D. the more you eat, the healthier you feel
33. The old saying referred to(提到) in the passage tells us that _____.
A. the apple is the best among all kinds of fruits
B. apples can take the place of doctors
C. eating apples regularly does lots of good to our health
D. an apple is a sure cure for illness
34. In the second paragraph, the writer tries to let us know _______．
A. our bodies need food, or we can’t live
B. often eating apples is a good habit
C. taking extra vitamin pills is completely useless
D. a good diet is of great importance for our health
35. From the passage we can draw a conclusion that if we want to keep healthy, we should ________.
A. only eat an apple a day B. eat properly
C. take many vitamin pills D. eat fast but carefully

第二节 书面表达（满分 20分）
Dear Li Hua,
I’m really sorry to hear that you failed the English exam. But failure is a common thing in one’s life. Almost everyone experiences failure in his life. So don’t be upset. We all make mistakes but how to stop making the same mistakes counts.
If the reason is that you didn’t make good preparations for the exam, then you should spend more time studying every day. As we know, good preparation is the key to success. If the failure results from loss of sleep or too much stress, then you should try to relax and believe in yourself next time. Don't push yourself too hard. Of course, there might be some other situations beyond your control. If so, don’t blame yourself too much.
There is an old saying: failure is the mother of success. We should use our failure as a stepping stone to success. Pull yourself together. Keep smiling and keep trying. I believe you can do well in the next English exam.
Yours,
Mike
