We all have our ways of marking time. As a photographer, my life is measured from one story to the next.
My oldest son was born in the middle of a long story about the Endangered Species Act. My daughter came
along with a pack of gray wolves.
Twenty stories later, though, it’s the story in Alaska that I’ll remember best. It was the story about the loss
of wilderness — and the story during which my wife Kathy got cancer. That’s the one that made time stand
still. I stopped taking pictures on the day when she found that tumor (肿瘤). Cruelly, it was Thanksgiving.
By Christmas, she had become very weak. Some days she was so sick she couldn’t watch TV.
Early examination saves time. But ours was not early. By the time you can feel it yourself, it’s often bigger
than the doctor want it to be.
Cancer is a thief. It steals time. Our days are already short with worry. Then comes this terrible disease,
unfair as storm at harvest time. But cancer also has the power to change us, for good. We learn to simplify,
enjoying what we have instead of feeling sorry for what we don’t. Cancer even made me a better father. My
work had made me a stranger to my three kids. But now I pay attention to what really matters. This is not a
race. This is a new way of life and new way of seeing, all from the cancer.
In the end each of us has so little time. We have less of it than we can possibly imagine. And even though it
turns out that Kathy’s cancer has not spread, and her prognosis (诊断) is good, we try to make it all count
now, enjoying every part of every day.
I’ve picked up my camera again. I watch the sky, searching for beautiful light. When winter storms come,
Kathy and I gather our children and take the time to catch snowflakes (雪花) on our tongues. After all, this
is good. This is what we’re living for.
24．As a photographer, the author used to ______.
A．leave his daughter with a pack of gray wolves B．express his love for his family in a special
way
C．miss a great many important historical moments D．devote much more to his career than his
family25．Why did the author decide to stop taking pictures?
A．To cure his own disease. B．To spend more time with his wife.
C．To seek a better position. D．To leave the wilderness alone.
26．What is the biggest change the cancer has brought to the author?
A．He treasured every bit of time with his family.
B．He has become a stranger to his children.
C．He takes his work more seriously.
D．He focuses more on medical care.
27．The author and his family catch snowflakes on their tongues probably because ______.
A．the snowflakes taste very good B．snowflakes are what they feed on
C．they regard that as a way to enjoy life D．there is beautiful light in the snowflakes
C
I have always been interested in making things. When I was a child, I enjoyed drawing, but I also
liked making things out of clay(粘土). I won a prize for one of my paintings when I was fourteen. That
may be why I went to art school four years later. But I studied painting at first, not pottery(制陶). I like
being a potter because I like to work with my hands and feel the clay. I'm happy working by myself and
being near my home. I don't like mass-produced(集体生产)things, because they are made by machines. I
think crafts(手工艺) are very important and crafts-people make things cleverly with hands. They make our
lives colorful. When I left school, I got some money. I hope to become a full-time crafts-woman. This
work-place is small, but I wish to move to a larger one next year.
28．From the passage we are sure that the writer is a _______.
A．student B．teacher C．man D．woman
29．The writer got into art school because of ______.A．liking to make things B．enjoying working near her home
C．a prize won when the writer was young D．a wish to be a potter
30．When entering art school, the writer was about ______.
A．14 B．16 C．18 D．21
31．The writer is talking about her workplace _____.
A．unhappily B．hopefully C．seriously D．angrily
D
Suppose you’re in a rush, feeling tired, not paying attention to your screen, and you send an email that
could get you in trouble.
Realisation will probably set in seconds after you’ve clicked “send”. You freeze in horror and burn with
shame.
What to do? Here are four common email accidents, and how to handle.
Clicking “send” too soon
Don’t waste your time trying to find out if the receivers has read it yet. Write another email as swiftly as
you can and send it with a brief explaining that this is the correct version and the previous version should
be ignored.
Writing the wrong time
The sooner you notice, the better. Respond quickly and briefly, apologizing for your mistake. Keep the
tone measured: don’t handle it too lightly, as people can be offered, especially if your error suggests a
misunderstanding of their culture(I.e. incorrect ordering of Chinese names).
Clicking “reply all” unintentionally
You accidentally reveal(透露)to entire company what menu choices you would prefer at the staff
Christmas dinner, or what holiday you’d like to take. In this instance, the best solution is to send a quick, light-hearted apology to explain your awkwardness. But it can quickly rise to something worse, when
everyone starts hitting “reply all” to join in a long and unpleasant conversation. In this instance, step away
from your keyboard to allow everyone to calm down.
Sending an offensive message to it’s subject
The most awkward email mistake is usually committed in anger. You write an unkind message about
someone, intending to send it to a friend, but accidentally send it to the person you’re discussing. In that
case, ask to speak in person as soon as possible and say sorry. Explain your frustrations calmly and
sensibly—see it as an opportunity tic hear up any difficulties you may have with this person.
32．After realizing an email accident, you are likely to feel _______.
A．curious B．Tired C．awful D．funny
33．If you have written the wrong name in an email, it is best to ________.
A．apologise in a serious manner B．tell the receiver to ignore the error
C．learn to write the name correctly D．send a short notice to everyone
34．What should you do when an unpleasant conversation is started by your “reply all” email?
A．Try offering other choices. B．Avoid further involvement(参与).
C．Meet other staff members. D．Make a light-hearted apology.
35．What is the passage mainly about?
A．Defining email errors. B．Reducing email mistakes.
C．Handling email accidents. D．Improving email writing.
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。
November is the month when many people offer thanks. 36． Use these tips to help develop a sense
of gratitude (感激) in each of your children, no matter what their age.37． While sitting at the dinner table, ask each member of the family to think about their day and share
something that they are thankful for. Meanwhile, use this same time to ask everyone if there is something
that they could improve upon or do better tomorrow.
Make yourself be the model. Children learn what they see, not what you say. Keep a gratitude journal.
38． Let their first entry (日记的一则) be the ABC’s of gratitude, naming one thing for each letter that they
are grateful for.
Write thank-you notes. We live in a time when we communicate through text messages, Twitter, and
Facebook. Show children the value of writing a thank- you note by hand. 39．
Put together a “care package” of donations (捐赠物) for an orphanage nearby. In the season of giving,
teaching your child to share his blessings with those less fortunate can be a valuable lesson in gratitude.
Use the activity as a jump-off point.
Gratitude isn’t “taught” overnight, and it is certainly not something that children of a young age can
grasp at the start. 40． Being grateful is something our kids begin to understand when we act as the model.
Grateful kids come from grateful parents.
A．Create a routine of giving thanks.
B．Teach them to write it frequently.
C．Let them create their own thank-you cards.
D．The means of showing gratitude is important.
E. Parents prepare enough cards for their children.
F. Share what you are grateful for with your children.
G. It’s a time when we reflect on and count our blessings.

From Disappointment to Purpose
I’m known for my determination. If I want something, I 41 for it; I refuse to give up until I
succeed. Over the years this attitude has worked well for me and helped me achieve my goals. 42 ,
when I wanted to be on the dance team at school, I learned all the dances and practiced until I could hardly
43 . And when I wanted money for a new computer, I washed cars, babysat, and walked dogs for all my
neighbors.
44 this year everything changed. I had set my sights on a summer 45 that I was
determined to get at the Water Zone, because the employees there could go on the water rides after their
work and get free food at the snack bar. It was the 46 job to have on hot summer vacations. So just
as I had achieved every goal in the past, I set out to 47 the job. I completed the application in my
neatest handwriting, carefully prepared for my interview, and gathered a pack of recommendation letters. I
was certain that nothing 48 keep me from my dream job.
But after my 49 , the manager of the Water Zone told me that he could hire only those with
experience in water safety. I was 50 . I felt like a failure.
On the last weekend before school ended, my teacher, Mrs. Keller, asked me 51 I would be
interested in the kids’ summer day camp. I decided that I had nothing to 52 , so I called the manager
and 53 an interview. She was 54 by my babysitting experience and employed me. In less
than a week, I had completely 55 about wanting to work at the water park. Each time I comforted a
little boy who missed his mother or a little girl who needed to help tying her shoes, I felt I was doing
something 56 . I realized that I had discovered my life’s 57 : to work with children. I now
have a new goal. I’m going to study to become an elementary school teacher.
Sometimes in life we don’t get 58 what we want. Our dream guy or girl may not be interested
in us. The coach may not select us for the team. A certain employer may not choose to hire us. It’s natural
to feel 59 ; I sure did. But I also learned an important lesson. Occasionally, when we don’t get what
we want, something even 60 is waiting for us around the corner!
41．A．go B．apply C．cheer D．wait42．A．In addition B．For example C．Before long D．As a result

第二节 （共 10 小题；每小题 1.5 分，满分 15 分）
阅读下面短文，在空白处填入 1 个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。We’ve all turned to sad music to make us feel 61． (good)at some point in our lives, but why does
doubling down on the sadness help drag us out of the mire(泥沼 )？
A new study sheds light on what’s going on inside our brains 62．we match our music to our feelings.
It looks like sad music can be enjoyable -rather than 63．(simple) depressing- because it triggers positive
memories that can help to lift our mood. Psychologist Adrian North from Curtin University in Australia
says there 64． (be)two groups of possible65． (explain)for why we enjoy listening to sad music like this:
one from social psychology, and one from cognitive neuroscience(认知神经学).
In terms of social psychology, one way of 66．(think) about this is that we feel much better about
67． (we) if we focus on someone who’s doing even worse, a process known as downward social
comparison. Everything’s going to be okay, because this person 68．(have) an even worse day than you
are.
Another theory from social psychology is that people like to listen 69． music that mirrors the tone of
their current life circumstances -the songs act as 70．sort of tuning fork(音叉) for our own situations and
they resonate(共鸣) with us.

六．书面表达
Dear Rex,
I’m really sorry to hear about your present situation. But don’t be worried about it too much, for it
may happen to us all at this time or another. You can depend on it that there are many ways to help you out.
First, you can turn to your teachers or experienced persons for advice on your problem. I believe they
can help you keep focused in class. Besides, lots of distraction is closely linked to lack of good sleep, so
you can rearrange your schedule, and make sure you sleep 7 to 8 hours a day, Moreover, try not to push yourself too hard, and spare mare time to relax with something like sports, music and so on.
Good luck to you!
Yours,
Li Hua
