But why have jeans 13‎ ‎ become so popular？You’ll get many answers. For some people they look cool, for others jeans are just comfortable. ‎ Jeans were first stronger trousers made for farm workers in the states of the American west. In the eastern part of the US jeans were hardly worn at all. They were connected with farm people and the workers. So the rich wouldn’t like to wear them. ‎ It was James Dean and Marlon Brando that made them popular in movies and everyone started to wear them. They were a symbol of the rebellion of young people during the 1950s and 1960s. So these new trousers were not allowed in American schools and sometimes in theatres and cinemas. As time went on，jeans became more acceptable. American people in Europe and Japan often wore them when they were not on duty to show that they were Americans. The trousers showed the world a happier way of life, something that people needed, especially after what they had gone through in World War II. ‎ Jeans had other advantages as well. They didn’t need to be washed as often as other trousers and women didn’t need to iron them. This became more important as more and more women started working and had less time for housework. ‎ Today jeans are an important part of our lives. They are always washed a few times before they are sold to give them a faded look. ‎ ‎28. Jeans first appeared ___________.‎ A．in eastern America B．in western America C．in Middle America D．all over America ‎29. What is the possible meaning of the underlined “rebellion” in this passage?‎ A．奢侈 B．活力 C．清纯 D．反叛 ‎30. What is the best title of the passage?‎ A．Jeans --- Symbol of Wealth B．Jeans --- Working Women’s Best Choice C．Jeans --- Popular Piece of Clothing in Our Daily Life D．Jeans --- Part of the Lives of Farm People and Workers C Once a circle lost a piece of its own. The circle wanted to be whole, so it went around looking for its missing piece. But because it was not complete, it could only roll (滚动) very slowly. It enjoyed the flowers and the sunshine along the way. It talked with 13‎ ‎ worms. It found lots of different pieces, but none of them fit. So it left them all by the side of the road and kept on looking for the missing piece. Then one day the circle found a piece that fit perfectly (完美). The circle put the missing piece into itself. It could be whole with nothing missing. It was so happy and began to roll. As it was a perfect circle, it could roll very fast, too fast to see flowers or talk to worms. It realized how different the world was when it rolled so quickly. It felt so sad that it stopped, left its found piece by the side of the road and rolled away slowly. ‎ Sometimes we are perfect when we lose something. A man who has everything is a poor man in some ways. He will never have hopes, dreams or something better. He will never know someone is loving him or someone is giving him something he has always wanted or never had. ‎ We couldn't be perfect, but we must be brave enough to love, strong enough to forgive, kind enough to share happiness with others and clever enough to know there is enough love around us and then we can always live a wonderful time in our lives.‎ ‎31. The circle rolled very slowly because it ________.‎ A. spent much time talking to worms  B. wanted to enjoy the sunshine  C. was looking for its missing piece  D. lost a piece of its own ‎32. Why did the circle stop when it rolled quickly? Because it ________.‎ A. wanted to enjoy the world  B. found a different world  C. wanted to look for another missing piece  D. thought the world changed so quickly ‎33. The story mainly tells us that _______.‎ A. nobody loves us if we give nothing  B. a man who has everything is the happiest  C. losing something may not be a bad thing sometimes  D. we are not whole when we lose something 13‎ D Willa Cather once said, "When people ask me whether writing has been a hard or easy road, I always answer with the famous saying: The end is nothing；the road is all. That is what I mean when I say writing has been a pleasure. I have never used the computer with the thought that one more task had to be done." ‎ Like most writers, Willa Cather did not write books for the money that they brought her, but rather for the pleasure that came in their writing. Her works were, like her, simple and full of the vigor of her days in Nebraska, where she grew from child to young womanhood and where she developed a deep love for the treeless land of the great plain with its wild flowers, wheat fields and rivers. ‎ ‎"It's a rather strange thing about the flat country," she wrote later. "It takes hold of you or it leaves you perfectly cold. A great many people find it very dull; they like a church tower, an old factory, a waterfall, the country all made to look like a German Christmas card...But when I come to the open plain, something happens. I'm home. I breathe differently."‎ ‎34. Willa Cather wrote because she found writing _____.‎ A. simple and lively ‎ B. opened up a road to success ‎ C. neither too hard nor too easy ‎ D. interesting and enjoyable ‎35. What was the place like where Cather grew up?‎ A. It was cold, plain and without a church. ‎ B. It was vast, open and flat. ‎ C. It was like a German Christmas card. ‎ D. It was a colorful world of wild flowers.‎ ‎36. When she said "It takes hold of you or it leaves you perfectly cold.", Willa Cather  meant that _____.‎ 13‎ A. you either love the place or hate it ‎ B. you decide either to stay or to leave ‎ C. some find the place warm; others find it cold ‎ D. some find the place peaceful; others find it wild ‎37. What happens when Cather comes to the open plain?‎ A. She breathes differently from others. ‎ B. She wants to make the place her home.‎ C. She feels completely comfortable. ‎ D. She finds the place similar to her home.‎ 第II卷（主观题 共40分）‎ 四、词汇运用 （本大题共8小题，每小题1分，共8分）‎ ‎(A) 根据句意和汉语注释，在答题卡对应题号的横线上，写出单词的正确形式。‎ 1.

He looked thin and hungry, but his blue eyes were determined(坚定的). He was hoping to get work in show business. He could sing and dance, and above all, he knew how to make people laugh.‎ His own father had died from drinking too much. And his mother wasn’t really able to look after Charlie. She was often sick in mind and had to be sent to hospital. So he was sent to a home for children who had no parents. He was cold and poor there and the children were punished for small mistakes. ‎ Thirty years later this same Charlie Chaplin became the king of comedy. Many people must have seen some of his films. People everywhere have sat and laughed at them until tears flowed down their eyes. Even people who don’t understand English can enjoy Chaplin’s films because they are mostly silent.
