I was standing in the checkout line behind a woman who looked to be in her 60s. When it was her turn to pay, the cashier(收银员) 31 her by name and asked her how she was doing. The woman looked down, shook her hand and said, “Not so good. My husband just lost his job and my 32 son is up to his old tricks again. The truth is, I don’t know how I’m going to 33 the holidays.” Then she gave the
cashier food stamps.
My heart 34 . I wanted to help but didn’t know how. Should I offer to 35 her groceries or ask for her husband’s situation?
36 I walked into the parking lot, I spotted the woman returning her shopping cart. I remembered something in my purse that I thought might help her. It wasn’t a handful of cash or an 37 of a job for her husband, but maybe it would make her life 38 .
My heart beat faster as I 39 the woman. “Excuse me,” I said, my voice trembling a bit. “I couldn’t help overhearing what you said to the cashier. It sounds like you’re going through a really 40 time right now. I’m so sorry, but I’d like to give you something.”
I took a small card out of my purse and 41 it to her.
When the woman read the card’s only two words, she began to cry. And through her 42 , she said, “You have no idea how much this 43 to me.”
I was a little 44 by her reply. Having never done anything like this before, I didn’t know what kind of 45 I might receive. All I could think to respond was, “Oh! Would it be OK to give you a 46 ?”
After we hugged 47 , I walked back to my car — and began to cry too.
The words on the card?
“You Matter.”
A few weeks earlier, a colleague gave me a similar card as 48 for a project I was working on. When I read the card, I felt a 49 glow (喜悦) spread inside of me. Deeply touched, I came home and ordered my own box of You Matter cards and started 50 them.

Information on Travelling in Singapore
Money matters
The currency in Singapore is the Singapore dollar(S$). Money changing services can be found at many shopping centres and hotels around the island, and the ATMs(generally open 24/7) accept most of the main credit cards such as Visa, MasterCard and American Express.
Hotel Reservations and Accommodation
Upon arrival at the airport, please visit its 24-hour hotel reservations counters, which can help get you a room in your preferred hotel. Payment for the first night is required upon confirmation.
Lost Passport/Singapore Immigration Services
Should you lose your passport, we suggest you make a police report, then head to the Immigration & Checkpoints Authority to get a temporary visa. Finally, inform your respective embassy so that you can get through customs when you reach home.
Tipping
Tipping is not a common practice in Singapore as most hotels and restaurants include a 10% service charge in the final bill. While tipping is not expected, it is appreciated, be it in restaurants where there is no service charge, or anywhere where excellent service is provided.
Smoking
If you are a smoker, you will have to resist the urge to light up in air-conditioned areas such as shopping centres, restaurants, entertainment outlets and cinemas. Smoking is also an offence in public buses, the MRT trains, taxis and lifts. A maximum of S$1000 can be imposed on first-time offenders. A general rule of thumb is that if there is an ashtray supplied, go for it.
51. Which of the following words can be used to describe the money changing system in Singapore?
A. Difficult. B. Convenient. C. Traditional. D. Original.
52. What is essential if you want to book a hotel room at the airport?
A. You must stay in Singapore for 24 hours.
B. You should go to your preferred hotel.
C. You are supposed to pay for the first night.
D. You must spend the first night at the airport.
53. How many steps are suggested that you should follow if you lose your passport in Singapore?
A. 2. B. 3. C. 4. D. 5.
54. On which of the following occasions are you expected to tip?
A. When you think that the service is very good.
B. When you receive a gift from a friend.
C. When you leave a very good restaurant.
D. When you are faced with any difficulty.
55. Smoking is strictly forbidden in the following areas EXCEPT ______.
A. in an air-conditioned restaurant B. in a bus
C. in a conference room D. by an ashtray

Frank Lloyd Wright was the champion of organic architecture, a style of building meant to harmonize with nature. But I’m not sure harmonizing with chipmunks — small American animals similar to squirrels with black lines on their fur — was what he had in mind.
During my years with the US National Park Service, I spent six months working in a visitor center designed by Wright’s firm. Several other employees and I staffed the park’s phone and radio system from a room in the basement.
I was sitting at my desk when I first heard a sound in the suspended ceiling. Dark shapes moved fast across the light panel(光板) above my head. Moments later, they ran back in the opposite direction, leaving me with an impression of noses and tails, each tail followed by another nose. It was like watching a shadow puppet(皮影) performance, but with real animals.
“Baby chipmunks,” a fellow told me. “They live in the ceiling.”
After four summers working in the parks, I had grown accustomed to sharing indoor space with wildlife. Chipmunks in the workplace even seemed to be a joy; their behaviors provided a bit of stress relief on difficult days.
As summer progressed, the shadows chasing each other across our lights grew bigger. Their movement across the light panels had become more of an athletic running.
I had just answered a call one day when I heard a loud sound, and a ceiling panel fell down on my head. I dropped the phone as I fell out of my office chair, looking
up just in time to see a brown tail disappear over the gap in the ceiling.
I pulled myself off the carpet, laughing with my co-workers, and noticed the phone hanging over the side of the desk. I picked up the phone, preparing to explain the crash, the scream, the dropped phone, and the laughing to the listener who was about to visit the park.
“I’m sorry, but you’re not going to believe what just happened.”
I don’t think he did.
56. What does the author probably do?
A. He’s a visitor. B. He’s a biologist.
C. He’s an architect. D. He’s a consultant.
57. What were the chipmunks doing when the author found them for the first time?
A. They were chasing each other.
B. They were making their home.
C. They were jumping onto the lights.
D. They were climbing up to the ceiling.
58. How did the author feel about seeing chipmunks in his office?
A. Scared. B. Curious. C. Pleased. D. Shocked.
59. What was the main cause of the accident when the author was making a phone call?
A. The chipmunks were fighting on the panel.
B. The panel couldn’t bear the chipmunks’ weight.
C. Something hit the ceiling from high above.
D. The suspended ceiling was not firm.
60. Who was the author talking to over the phone?
A. One of his friends. B. Frank Lloyd Wright.
C. A future park visitor. D. One of his colleagues.
C
By trying to tickle(挠痒痒) rats and recording how their nerve cells respond, Shimpei Ishiyama and his adviser are discovering a mystery that has puzzled thinkers since Aristotle expected that humans, given their thin skin and unique ability to laugh, were the only ticklish animals.
It turns out that Aristotle was wrong. In their study published on Thursday, Ishiyama and his adviser Michael Brecht found that rats squeaked and jumped with pleasure when tickled on their backs and bellies. These signs of joy changed according to their moods. And for the first time, they discovered a special group of nerve cells. These nerve cells made this feeling so powerful that it causes an individual being tickled to lose control.
To make sure that he had indeed found a place in the brain where tickling was processed, Ishiyama then stimulated(刺激) that area with electrical currents. The rats began to jump like rabbits and sing like birds.
“It’s truly ground-breaking,” said Jeffrey Burgdorf, a neuroscientist at Northwestern University who reviewed the paper. “It takes the study of emotion to a new level.”
Burgdorf has played a central role in our understanding of animal tickling. He was part of a team that first noticed, in the late 1990s, that rats made special noises when they were experiencing social pleasure. Others had already noted that rats repeatedly made short and high sounds during meals. But the lab where Burgdorf worked noticed that they emitted similar sounds while playing. And so one day, the senior scientist in the lab said, “Let’s go and tickle some rats.” They quickly found that those cries of pleasure doubled.
“The authors have been very adventurous,” said Daniel O’Connor, a neuroscientist at Johns Hopkins University who studies touch. To him, that finding was very surprising.
“Why does the world literally feel different when you are stressed out?” he said. “This is the first step towards answering that question. It gives us a way to approach it with experimental rigor(严谨).”
61. What contributed to humans’ being ticklish according to Aristotle?
A. Their special skin. B. Their social pleasure.
C. Their nervous system. D. Their willingness to touch.
62. Why did the researchers make use of electrical currents?
A. To discover the special group of nerve cells.
B. To experiment on different animals.
C. To follow the process of tickling.
D. To prove their finding.
61. Which of the following statements will Jeffrey Burgdorf agree with?
A. The research process is full of risks.
B. The finding of the study is surprising and unbelievable.
C. The new discovery is beneficial for the study of emotion.
D. The finding of the study actually contradicts modern science.
64. The underlined word “squeak” in Paragraph 2 may be explained by ______.
A. give a smile B. make a noise C. burst into tears D. watch with staring eyes
65. What is the best title for the text?
A. The Life of Rats B. How Rats Laugh
C. A Wonderful Scientist D. A New Discovery about Rat
D
My newlywed husband said the same thing every morning. “You're beautiful today.”
One glance in the mirror showed that it was far from the truth.
“Liar,” I shot back with a grin.
It was my usual response. My mother's first husband was not a kind man and his verbal (语言的) and physical abuse forced her and her two children to find a safe place. He showed up on her doorstep one day with roses. She let him in and he beat her with those roses and took advantage of her. Nine months later she gave birth to a 9 lb. 13oz. baby girl -- me.
The rude words we heard growing up took root. I had trouble seeing myself as someone of value. I had been married two years when I surprised myself. My husband wrapped his arms around me and told me I was beautiful.
A lot of years have passed. My husband has grey in his hair. I'm no longer skinny. Last week I woke up and my husband's face was inches from mine.
“What are you doing?” I asked.
I covered my mouth, trying to hide my morning breath. He reached down and kissed
my face.
“What I do every morning,” he said.
What a man! My husband understands my past. He's been beside me as I've grown from an unsure young girl to a confident woman, mother, speaker and author.
But I'm not sure that he understands the part he played in that transformation. The words I heard growing up pierced(刺穿) my soul, yet his words pierced even deeper.
This Anniversary Day I plan to wake early. I want to tell Richard how much I love him. He may look in the mirror and see an extra pound or two, or wish for the day when his hair was dark and curly, but all I'll see is the man who saw something in me when I couldn't see it myself, and who leaves butterfly kisses, even after twenty-three years of marriage.
66. When the author looked into the mirror, she found herself ______.
A. beautiful B. confident C. untidy D. unusual
67. Why did the author’s mother and her two children have to move?
A. Because their house was too small.
B. Because they were not well treated by the husband.
C. Because they were expecting another baby.
D. Because her mother’s husband wanted them to move.
68. As a young girl, the author ______.
A. was married early B. had a happy childhood
C. looked for root everywhere D. lacked confidence in herself
69. It can be inferred from the passage that ______.
A. the author’s husband had a positive influence on her life
B. the author played an important part in the change
C. they have been married for 23 years
D. the author’s husband has gained some weight
70. The underlined phrase “the words” in the last but one paragraph refers to ______.
A. her own words B. her husband’s words
C. her mother’s words D. her father’s words
第Ⅱ卷 ( 非选择题 )
第一节:阅读表达(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)
阅读短文,按照题目要求用英语回答问题。
Even if you are a genius at school, you still might be lost when it comes to getting from point A to point B. Don’t get caught in a strange place without these basic safety tips.
TIP ONE: Know where you’re going. Before you set out in an unfamiliar area, go to Google Maps to plan your journey and print it out. You can also use your phone’s GPS to map the route. Make sure that the location services are turned on on your phone, just in case you get lost.
TIP TWO: Know where your stuff is. Never leave your backpack or shopping bags out of your sight. Carry your wallet in your front pocket or keep it close to your body. Be sure you’ve got everything at all times. A fun day out can turn into the worst headache ever if you realize you have left something behind.
TIP THREE: Pick your streets smart. If you have the choice between a busy street and a deserted one, always pick the busy one. You are more likely to be attacked on dark, empty sidewalks than on ones with a crowd.
TIP FOUR: Travel in packs. Don’t go anywhere -- especially an unfamiliar place -- without a friend or two. If you must go out alone, be sure to tell someone where you’re going.
TIP FIVE: Don’t let your music drown you out. There’s nothing wrong with listening to your iPod as you walk around town, but keep it at a low enough volume so you can still hear passing cars. Losing concentration puts you at risk from accidents, attacks and getting lost. This also goes for texting while walking. Don’t do it. Keep your head up and pay attention to the people and things going on around you.
71. According to the passage, what should you do before going to an unfamiliar area if you have a phone? (No more than 10 words)
72. Compared with the deserted one, why is the busy street a better choice? (No more than 10 words)
73. The underlined word in Paragraph 5 can be best replaced by ______. (One word)
74. What do you think may be the best title for this passage? (No more than 10 words)
75. Which tip do you think is the most helpful for you? Why? (No more than 20 words)

Dear Miss Melinia and classmates,
I am much honoured to have the opportunity to make a welcome speech on behalf of my classmates. First of all, let’s extend our warmest welcome to Miss Melinia.
Our class consists of 40 students, including 20 boys and 20 girls, all of whom are working hard at their lessons in order to achieve success in our future career. We have been doing all we can to have a good command of English, but we do feel that we still have a long way to go. So we hope that your instructions will help us a lot in our learning. I suggest that we organize more group activities in class so that everybody gets a chance to express himself in English, through which we can improve our spoken English. Besides, we expect to know more about the western culture to help us in English learning.
Thank you.
