It was the first snow of winter — an exciting day for every child but not for most teachers.
Up until now, I had been old enough to dress myself, but today would need some help. Miss
Finlayson, my kindergarten teacher, had been through first snow days many times, but I think she
may still remember this one.
I managed to get into my wool snow trousers. But I struggled on my jacket because it
didn’t fit well. It was a hand-me-down from my brother, and made me wonder why I had to
wear his ugly clothes, At least my hat and scarf were mine, and they were quite pretty. Finally it
was time to have Miss Finlayson help me with my boots（靴子）.
In her calm, motherly voice she said, “By the end of winter, you will all be able to put on
your own boots.” I didn’t realize at the time that this was more a statement of hope than of
confidence（信心）.
I handed her my boots and stuck out my foot. Like most children, I expected grown-ups to do
all the work. After much pushing, she managed to get first one into place and then, with a sigh,
worked the second one on too.
I announced, “They’re on the wrong feet.”
She struggled to get the boots off and went through the joyless task of putting them on again.
“They’re my brother’s boots, you know, ” I said. “I hate them”.
Somehow, from long years of practice, she managed to act as though I wasn’t an
annoying（烦人的）little girl, She struggle with me, she asked, “Now, where are your mittens
（连指手套）？”

boots.

When people hear a president speak, they seldom think about others helping to shape the

“Get your hands off me, I have been stolen,” the laptop, a portable computer, shouted.
That is a new solution to laptop computer theft: a program that lets owners give their property a
voice when it has been taken.
The program allows users to display alerts on the missing computer’s screen and even to set
a spoken message. Tracking software for stolen laptops has been on the market for some time, but
this is thought to be the first that allows owners to give the thief a piece of their mind.
Owners must report their laptop missing by visiting a website, which sends a message to the
model: a red and yellow “lost or stolen” sign appears on its screen when it is started. Under the
latest version（版本）of the software, users can also send a spoken message.
The message can be set to reappear every 30 seconds, no matter how many times the thief
closes it.” One customer sent a message saying,’ You are being tracked. I am right at your
door’,” said Carrie Hafeman, chief executive of the company which produces the program,
Retriever.
In the latest version, people can add a spoken message. For example, the laptop’s speakers
will say: “Help, this laptop is reported lost or stolen. If you are not my owner, report me now.”
The Retriever software package, which costs $29.95 but has a free trial period, has the
functions of many security software programs .Owners can remotely switch to an alternative
password if they fear that the thief has also got hold of the access details.
If a thief accesses the internet with the stolen laptop, Retriever will collect information on the
internet service provider in use, so that the police can be alerted to its location.
Thousands of laptops are stolen every year form homes and offices, but with the use of
laptops increasing, the number stolen while their owners are out and about has been rising sharply.
Other security software allows users to erase data remotely or lock down the computer.
48. The expression “to give the thief a piece of their mind “can be understood as
“_______”
A. to give the thief an alert mind
B. to express the owners’ anger to the thief
C. to remind the thief of this conscience
D. to make the thief give up his mind
49. Different from other security software, Retriever can
A. record the stealing process B. help recognize the lost laptop
C. lock down the computer remotely D. send a spoken message
50. One function of the program is that it allows the owner to . at a distance.
A. change some access details for switching on the laptop
B. turn on the laptop by using the original password
C. operate the laptop by means of an alternative password
D. erase the information kept in the stolen laptop
51. Which of the following can best summarize the main idea of the passage?
A. With no Retriever, thousands of laptops are stolen every year.
B. A new software provides a means to reduce laptop theft.
C. Retriever has helped to find thieves and lost computers.
D. A new program offers a communication platform with the thief.
D
The latest research suggests that the key factor separating geniuses（天才）from the merely
accomplished is not I.Q., a generally bad predictor of success. Instead, it’s purposeful practice.
Top performers spend more hours practising their craft. If you wanted to picture how a typical
genius might develop, you’d take a girl who possessed a slightly above average language ability.
It wouldn’t have to be a big talent, just enough so that she might gain some sense of distinction.
Then you would want her to meet, say, a novelist, who coincidentally shared some similar
qualities. Maybe the writer was from the same town, had the same family background, or shared
the same birthday.
This contact would give the girl a vision of her future self. It would give her some idea of a
fascinating circle who might someday join. It would also help if one of her parents died when she
was 12, giving her a strong sense of insecurity and fuelling a desperate need for success. Armed
with this ambition, she would read novels and life stories of writers without end. This would give
her a primary knowledge of her field. She’s be able to see new writing in deeper ways and
quickly understand its inner workings.
Then she would practise writing. Her practice would be slow, painstaking and error-focused.
By practising in this way, she delays the automatizing process. Her mind wants to turn conscious,
newly learned skills into unconscious. Automatically performed skills. By practising slowly, by
breaking skills down into tiny parts and repeating, she forces the brain to internalize a better
pattern of performance. Then she would find an adviser who would provide a constant stream of
feedback, viewing her performance form the outside, correcting the smallest errors, pushing her to
take on tougher challenges. By now she is redoing problems—how do I get characters into a
room—dozens and dozens of times. She is establishing habits of thought she can call upon in
order to understand or solve future problems.
The primary quality our young writer possesses is not some mysterious genius. It’s the
ability to develop a purposeful, laborious and boring practice routine; the latest research takes
some of the magic out of great achievement. But it underlines a fact that is often neglected. Public
discussion is affected by genetics and what we’re “hard-wired” to do. And it’s true that
genes play a role in our capabilities. But the brain is also very plastic. We construct ourselves
through behaviour. Ks5u
52. The passage mainly deals with .
A. the function of I.Q. in cultivating（培育）a writer
B. the relationship between genius and success
C. the decisive（决定性的）factor in making a genius
D. the way of gaining some sense of distinction
53. By reading novels and writers’ stories, the girl could .
A. come to understand the inner structure of writing
B. join a fascinating circle of writers someday
C. share with a novelist her likes and dislikes
D. learn from the living examples to establish a sense of security
54. In the girl’s long painstaking training process, ________.
A. her adviser forms a primary challenging force to her success.
B. her writing turns into an automatic pattern of performance
C. she acquires the magic of some great achievement
D. she comes to realize she is “hard-wired” to write
55. What can be concluded from the passage?
A. A fuelling ambition plays a leading role in one’s success
B. A responsible adviser is more important than the knowledge of writing.
C. As to the growth of a genius, I.Q. doesn’t matter, but just his/her effort.
D. What really matters is what you do rather than who you are.
E
There is a common belief among parents that schools are no longer interested in spelling. No
school I have taught in has ever considered spelling unimportant as a basic skill. There are,
however, quite different ideas about how to teach it, or how much priority (优先) it must be given
over general language development and writing ability. The problem is, how to encourage a child
to express himself freely in writing without holding him back with spelling.
If spelling becomes the only point of his teacher’s interest, clearly a bright child will be likely
to “play safe”. He will write only words within his spelling range (范围). That’s why teachers
often encourage the early use of dictionaries and pay attention to content rather than technical
ability.
I was once shocked to read on the bottom of a sensitive piece of writing about a personal
experience:“This work is terrible! There are far too many spelling mistakes.” It may have been a
sharp criticism(批评) of the pupils technical abilities in writing, but it was also a sad thing for the
teacher who had omitted ( 略 过 ) to read the composition, which contained some beautiful
expressions of the child’s deep feelings. The teacher was not wrong to draw attention to the
mistakes, but if his priority had centered on the child's ideas, an expression of his disappointment
with the presentation would have given the pupil more hope to seek improvement.
56. Teachers differ in their opinions about ____, `
A. the difficulties in teaching spelling
B. the role of spelling in general language development
C. the importance of the basic writing skills
D.the necessity of teaching spelling
57. The expression “play safe” probably means ____.
A. to write carefully B. to do as teachers say
C. to use dictionaries frequently D. to avoid using words one is not sure of
58. Teachers encourage the use of dictionaries so that____.
A. students will be able to express their ideas more freely
B. teachers will have less trouble in correcting mistakes
C. students will have more trust in writing
D. students will learn to spell words correctly
59. The writer seems to think that the teacher’s judgement on that sensitive piece of writing
is____.
A. reasonable B. unfair C. foolish D. careless
60. The major point discussed in the passage is _______.
A. the importance of developing writing skills
B. the importance of spelling
C. the correct way of marking composition
D. the relationship between spelling and the content of a composition

第三节 书面表达（30）
Working Individually or Working in a Team
There are basically two ways to get work done.
One is to work individually. In this way, people can decide for themselves when to start work
and how to do it. What’s more, they will be able to learn how to solve problems on their own and
how to think independently.
People may also choose to work in a team, where they can learn from each other and help
each other. In addition, they may work out better ways to get work done through discussion. They
can truly learn the skills of cooperation and how to get through the ideas to their team mates.
As far as I’m concerned, I prefer to work in a team, which offers me a chance to learn how to
get along with others and to share my experiences with them. As the work can be divided among
several people, it can be done efficiently. Teamwork is always important.
