58.C 考查定语从句的引导词。句意:一年前我给了你们每人一粒不能生长的种子。本句中的先行词a seed 是物,故引导词应用which。所以选C。
59.B 考查文意理解和介词辨析。句意:但是除了彼得以外,你们所有人都给我带来了植物和花。besides “除……以外”,需要加上它后面的内容;except “除……以外”需要排除它后面的内容;with“带有”。根据句意及介词的含义选B。
60.A 考查文意理解和单词用法辨析。句意:彼得是唯一一个具有诚实和勇气带了如此一个箱子的人。such “如此的”,后接名词或名词性短语;so “如此”后接形容词或副词;as 意为“作为,由于”等,没有“如此的”含义。所以选A。

五、任务型阅读(10分)
When we think about writing poems or understanding poetry, we often think that it’s hard to do. But nothing could be further from the truth.
Are you a fan of the latest pop group? Do you like to listen to music? Did your mother ever sing a song to you as she tried to get you to sleep? Songs are just poems set to music. They have both the wonderful words of poetry and the sweet sound of music to go along with.
Writing poems is not really all that hard. Through writing poems, you learn how to use a language well. You have to use your imagination. You have to choose the best word to describe exactly how you feel or what you see. You might be trying to describe a beautiful sunset. You think that the words “melting in the distance” or “dropping quietly against the sea” would be a good way to describe it. You have to decide which would be better. Would you like to write a poem? Go ahead. It’s really not that difficult.
根据短文内容,判断正(T)误(F)。
( F )71.We often think it is easy to write poems or understand poetry.
( T )72.You have to choose the best word to describe exactly how you feel or what you see.
( F )73.Writing poems is really all that hard.
( T )74.Through writing poems, you learn how to use a language well.
( T )75.If you go ahead, it’s really not that difficult.
