第二部分 阅读理解（共两节，满分 35 分）第一节（共 10 小题；每小题 2.5 分，满分 25 分）
AIn many big cities, a lot of old people keep birds, cats, dogs and other animals in their houses.
These animals are friendly to the old people and never leave them. So the old people love them and
see them as their good friends or families.
It's not difficult to keep these lovely animals at home. But you have to take them to animal
hospitals to give them needles (注射), so they won't get ill or they will make people ill. Now there
are lots of animal food stores here and there. People can buy good animal food for their animals
there. Old people can buy animal food on the phone or on the Internet. But it's a little more
expensive.
Sometimes it's kind of dirty and dangerous to keep animals. They sometimes look dirty and smell terrible
and can be dangerous. For example, an old woman in Shanghai lost her life on the street for her pet dog.
Maybe old people in big cities have many reasons to keep these nice and clever animals. They
may feel lonely when their children leave. And these pets can be their great helpers. They are their
good friends and help them in many things.
21.Old people love these animals because they are _________.
A. nice and lovely B. can be great helpers C. are not difficult to keep D. are friendly to
them
22.If people don't give the animals needles, the animals may ________.
A. be ill B. run away C. not eat food D. make people
unhappy
23. What does the passage mainly talk about?
A. How to keep pets. B. Pet animals in big cities.
C. Old people and their pet animals. D. Friendly and nice pet animals.

Subject: Bonjour!
Bonjour! (That means hello in French.)
We hope you all had a great summer. Ours was a lot of fun. We have seen so many new things
and met so many wonderful people. The French gave us a warm welcome and helped us get used to
living here soon. We have so many things to share with all of you. We are going to send you more
emails, but here are the best parts of our holiday in France so far.
We had a fantastic time seeing the Tour de France this summer. It is the most famous bicycle race in the
world. The riders travel more than two thousand miles in about a month! We got a quick look at the riders as
they sped past! After the race, our family rented bikes, and rode along part of the route that the cyclists used.
A few of you asked whether the French really eat snails(蜗牛). The answer is yes. We went out to
dinner the other day, and our parents ordered some. We each tried one and it didn't taste too bad. The
snails, called escargots, are served with lots of butter. They feel a little rubbery when you bite into
them, but they don't really have much taste. Mum's favourite food here is the French pastries. Dad
loves the red wine. Our favourite is the fresh bread from the shop down the street.
We went to visit the Eiffel Tower a few weeks ago. We went all the way to the top. It was a sunny
day, so we could see for miles and miles into the distance. Dad doesn't like heights, so he stayed at
the bottom of the tower and took pictures from the ground.
We miss all of you a lot. Write back to us and let us know what is new at home.
Au revoir! (Can you guess what that means in French?)
Wendy and Jack Brown
24.What do the Browns think of French people?
A. Friendly. B. Funny. C. Welcome. D. Pop
ular.
25.Jack's favourite food in France is
A. tasty snails B. French pastries C. fresh bread D. red
wine
26.Which of the following is NOT true according to the email?
A. Wendy and Jack got used to the life in France soon.
B. Tour de France is the best-known bicycle race in the world.
C. The Browns have seen many wonderful things in France.
D. The Browns went to the top of the Eiffel Tower together.
27.Wendy and Jack wrote this email to
A. tell a story about riding bicycles in France B. tell a story about their experiences in
France
C. advise the readers to try escargots in France D. advise the readers to visit France in summer
C
Everybody in this world is different from one another. But do you know that understanding differences
can help you better manage your money?
As we grow up, we gradually develop a set of our own values or beliefs. These are influenced by society,
our family, the education we receive and so on. Once this value system is set up, it's not easy to change later
in life.
Financial (金融) experts say that everyone also has their own belief of how to manage their finances. This
is part of our value system and it has a great impact on the way we look after our money.
According to our different values, experts put us in three categories. They are: the ant, the cricket and the
snail.
The ant—works first
Just like ants who work heart and soul in summer in order to store food for winter, these people
don't care about enjoying the moment. They work very hard and save money they earn so that they
can enjoy life when they get old and retire. The ant loves to save but they could make more out of
their money if they were willing to invest(投资) in some funds and stocks with low risk.
The cricket—fun first
The cricket wants to enjoy everything now and doesn't think too much about the future. They even
borrow money when they really want something. Many young people now belong to this group. These
people have little savings. When they get old, they might have problems. They should learn to save and buy
insurance(保险).
The snail—lives under pressure(压力)
The snail refers to people who make life difficult for themselves. They take big long-term loans (贷
款)from the bank in order to buy things such as luxury(奢华的) houses. They are happy to take big loans
even though they are not sure they can afford it. This can cause problems in the future. They should plan
more carefully.
28.People with the character of the snail would like to _______.
A. enjoy life at the moment without thinking much about the future
B. live a luxury life at all costs
C. put work before everything else.
D. take the risk of investing a large sum of money
29.Our beliefs and values are affected by the following except ______.
A. society B. money C. education D. our family
30.This passage mainly talks about _______.
A. the reaction between man and insects B. the problems with dealing with money
C. the insects in nature D. the spending nature of people
第二节 七选五（共 5 小题：每小题 2 分，满分 10 分）
Some people are so rude. Who sends an e-mail or a text message that just says "Thank you”? Who
leaves a voice mail message rather than texts you?Who asks for a fact easily found on the
Internet? ___31_______
Maybe I'm the rude one for not appreciating life's little courtesies( 礼 节 ） . But many social
norms（规范）just don't make sense to people drowning in digital communication.
Take the thank-you note. Daniel Post Senning, a coauthor of Emily Post's Etiquette, asked, “At
what point does showing appreciation outweigh the cost?"
32 Think of how long it takes to listen to one of those messages.In texts, you don't have
to declare who you are or even say hello. E-mail, too, is slower than a text. The worst are those who
leave a voice mail and then send an e-mail message to tell you they left a voice mail.
This isn't the first time technology has changed our manners. 33 Alexander Graham
Bell, the inventor, suggested that people say, "Ahoy!” Finally,hello won out, and the victory sped up
the greeting's use in face-to-face communications.
In the age of the smart phone, there is no reason to ask once-acceptable questions about: the
weather forecast, a business's phone number, or directions to a house, a restaurant, or
an office, which can be easily found on a digital map. 34 And when you answer, they respond with
a thank-you e-mail.
How to handle these differing standards? Easy: Consider your audience. Some people, especially
older ones ,appreciate a thank-you message. 35 In traditional societies, the young learn from
the old.But in modem societies, the old can also learn from the young. Here's hoping that politeness
never goes out of fashion but that time-wasting forms of communication do.
A.Then there is voice mail.
B.Others,like me,want no reply.C.But people still ask these things.
D.Don't these people realize that they're wasting your time?
E.Won't new technology bring about changes in our daily life?
F. Face-to-face communication makes comprehension much easier.
G.When the telephone was invented,people didn't know how to greet a caller.

Sample Answer
I often imagine what my life will be in three years. I will be admitted to Tsinghua University, and
my dream major will be English Literature because I fancy studying English, and I have a good
knowledge of English.
Speaking of my leisure time, I will make full use of it to improve myself, such as taking regular
exercises and reading more books in the library to keep physically and mentally healthy. I'll have
more time to do whatever I like. Traveling around the country is also one of my dreams, because it
can broaden my horizons.
When it comes to my dream job, I expect to be a website designer for the following reasons: First,
it is obvious that the Internet has become a part of modern life. I will make contributions to the
progress of society for being a website designer. Second, I'm keen on computers and designing,
which will support me to go through any difficulties.
