Fleming was a poor Scottish farmer. One day late in the afternoon, while working to support his family, he heard a cry for help coming from a pond nearby.
He dropped his tools and ran to the pond. There, up to his neck in the water, was a terrified boy, crying and struggling to free himself. Obviously the boy did not know how to swim. Fleming jumped into the pond and quickly swam toward the boy. He saved the boy from what could have been a terrible death.
The next day, a very cool carriage pulled up to the Scotsman’s house. A well-dressed nobleman stepped out and introduced himself as the father of the boy Fleming saved the day before.
“I want to repay you,” said the nobleman. “You saved my son’s life.”
“No, I can’t accept any payment for what I did,” the Scottish farmer replied, waving off the offer.
At that moment, the farmer’s own son came to the door of the family farmhouse, confused by who was visiting them.
“Is that your son?” the nobleman asked.
“Yes,” the farmer replied proudly.
“I’ll make you a deal. Let me take him with me. I promise you that I will give him a good education. If the boy is anything like his father, he’ll grow up to be a man you can be proud of.”
And he did. In time, Fleming’s son graduated from St. Mary’s Hospital Medical School in London and went on to become a famous doctor.
Years later, the nobleman’s son became seriously ill. Who saved him? The farmer’s son did.
24. What happened to Fleming one afternoon?
A. He fell into a pond by accident. B. He saved a boy out of a pond.
C. He fell asleep near a pond. D. He made a lot of money from his job.
25. According to the story, Fleming _____.
A. didn’t accept money for helping others
B. hoped to get more money by refusing
C. accepted the nobleman’s payment
D. asked the nobleman to support his son’s education
26. Which of the following about Fleming’s son is NOT true?
A. He took the place of the nobleman’s son.
B. He got a college education.
C. He became a famous doctor.
D. He cured the nobleman’s son.
27. What can we learn from the story?
A. No pains, no gains.
B. You can get a lot more by helping the rich.
C. Don’t try to get payment for helping others.
D. An act of kindness always helps.

Willy, a merchant, returned home to his own country from a faraway continent, where he had succeeded in making a small fortune by hard work. He found on arriving at the port that all his relatives were having a large party.
He was in such a happy mood and the joy of the moment that he did not even bother changing his grey flannel(法兰绒)suit which had become a little worn during the trip home.
When he entered the brilliantly lit room, his relatives and friends gave him a rather cold welcome because they had noticed his modest suit and immediately imagined that he had come back a poor man.
A young man who happened to be accompanying him was quite irritated at this and said to Willy, “What a wonderful reception you have received from these people. They have not even the intention of shaking your hand after all these years that you have been away from home.”
“Just wait and see!” whispered Willy, “They will soon change their looks!” Saying this he slipped a precious ring on his finger. All of a sudden the faces of all those present lit up and immediately Willy was surrounded by so many people that he didn’t know what to do. A man shook his hand, a cousin threw his arms around him, and he had so many invitations from the people present that he thought he would be unable to make any other appointments for several years.
“Has this beautiful, precious ring of yours the power of magic people?” asked the young man.
“Oh, no!” replied Willy, “They see in this glittering diamond ring something that makes them think I am rich, and, unfortunately, they place wealth above everything else.”
"What blind people!" exclaimed the young man. “It is not the ring that has drawn them to you but their desire for riches. Is it possible to appreciate more a piece of yellow metal surrounded by little stones than the goodness of my Lord? And indeed how foolish are people who place their trust in riches rather than in virtues(美德)!”
28. In what way did Willy go to attend the party held by his relatives and friends?
A. In a modest mood. B. In travel-soiled clothes.
C. Wearing a precious jewel. D. Without being accompanied.
29. The word “irritated” in the fourth paragraph is closest in meaning to “______”.
A. excited B. pleased C. angry D. envious
30. According to the young man, people should ______.
A. give up all the physical wealth
B. appreciate more jewelry than goodness
C. observe carefully when judging a person
D. avoid being blinded by the desire for wealth
31. Which can be the best title of the passage?
A. The Diamond Ring B. The Welcome Party
C. The Modest Clothes D. The Joyful Crowd
D
What science story once told about other worlds far away is now a fact. Astronomers prove another solar (of the sun) system like ours with some planets in the constellation Andromeda (仙女座).
Geoffrey Marcy is a professor of astronomy and physics at San Francisco State University. He says, “What we have found now is indeed a fully-grown system of planets around the star Upsilon Andromeda. It appears to have three planets, one close in, one at a middle distance, and one farther out. The star is slightly larger than our sun. The planets are huge, like our Jupiter(木星).”
Marcy's partner in this research, Debra Fischer, describes the solar system, “Here are the inner planet that goes around every 46 days, the middle planet that goes around every 242 days, and then the outer planet that goes around every three and a half to four years.”
The sun of that solar system, Upsilon Andromeda, is so near and bright that it can be seen by using no equipment during summer and fall.
For twelve years astronomers searched the skies in the belief that if our sun has planets around it, surely others do, too. Geoffrey Marcy says, “And then starting three and a half years ago, we began finding for the first time planets singly, one planet here around one star...”
“When I look up at the stars now at night, I can imagine easily that every one of them has planets around them,” says Debra Fischer.
It was a tremble (shaking) in the star that led Marcy to the planets. “The star rocks around because of the gravity of the planet as a dog owner gets pulled around by a little dog.”
Can they support life? We don't know, because present technology is not advanced enough to determine what the planets are made of. That, Marcy says, is astronomy's next challenge.
32. What's the relation between Andromeda (A), Upsilon Andromeda system (U) and the mentioned three planets (P)?
A B C D
33. According to Debra Fischer, in the new solar system, ________.
A. the larger a planet is, the shorter it takes to go around the star
B. the farther a planet is from the star, the longer it takes to go around the star
C. it takes all the planets around three and a half to four years to go around the star
D. the planets move around the star at the same speed
34. What led to Marcy's discovery of the planets?
A. That any planet has gravity.
B. That a dog owner was pulled by his dog.
C. The tremble of Upsilon Andromeda.
D. That any star has its planets.
35. We can infer (推断) that the scientists are ________.
A. to find out whether the planets can support life
B. to find means to travel to the planets
C. to communicate with the living beings on the planets
D. soon to be able to answer the question
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处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Your house may have an effect on your weight. It is said that the way you design your home could play a part in whether you put on weight or not. 36 Here are some ways to turn your home into part of your diet plan.
37 Dark environments are more likely to encourage overeating, for people are often less self-conscious(难为情)when they’re in poorly lit places --- and so more likely to eat lots of food. If your home doesn’t have enough window light, get more lamps and fill the place with light.
38 Research suggests warm colors help us eat more. In one study, people who ate meals in a yellow or red room consumed 33 percent more than those in a blue room. Warm colors like yellow make food appear more appetizing, while cold colors make us feel less hungry. So when it’s time to repaint, go blue.
39 People who eat slowly usually use about 70 fewer calories(卡路里)per meal than those who rush through their meals. Try to make dinner last at least 30 minutes. And while you’re at it, actually sit down to eat. If you need some help slowing down, turn on relaxing music. It makes you less likely to rush through a meal.
40 Big bowls and plates can easily make us fat. We eat about 22 percent more when using a 12-inch plate instead of a 10-inch plate. When we choose a large spoon over a smaller one, total intake(摄入)jumps by 14 percent. And we’ll pour about 30 percent more liquid into a short, wide glass than a tall, skinny glass.
A. Mind the colors.
B. Downsize the dishes.
C. Don’t forget the clock---or the radio.
D. Get more food full of energy and fiber.
E Open the curtains and turn up the lights.
F. Having meals in your own house is good for your health.
G. You can make your house work for you instead of against you.

Dear Betty,
In your e-mail, you said that you wanted to know something about wildlife protection in China. Do you know Bird-loving Week? Bird-loving Week has been held in a week in April or early May since 1982. There are more than 1,300 species of birds in China, some of which are rare. Now more and more people realize that birds are an important part of nature and we need to protect them. Many students also join in the activity and become volunteers. They have public talks about birds, and tell people the importance of bird protection. I know you are a volunteer in a wildlife protection organization. I’d love to share your own experience there.
I’m looking forward to your reply.
Yours,
Li Hua

Hello. My name is David Brown. I study at East Greenwich High School. You may wonder what my school day is like. I’ll tell you something about it. I usually get up at 7:30 and then have breakfast. Since my school is not far from my home, I don’t have to take the underground or the bus. I even don’t need a bike. I leave for school at 8:30 and get there at 8:50. School begins at 9:00. We have four lessons in the morning. The first begins at 9:00 and the second at 9:40. We take a coffee break from 10:20 to 10:40. The third begins at 10:40 and the fourth at 11:20. Our lunch begins at 12:00. In the afternoon we have three lessons. The first begins at 1:40. School ends at 3:40. Then I go straight home. My favorite subject is science. But I also love art and music. After school when finishing my homework, I always paint and listen to music. That’s all. Thank you.
