阅读下列短文, 从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中, 选出最佳选项, 并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

A

The person who set the course of my life was a school teacher named Marjorie Hurd. When I was stepped off a ship in New York Harbor in 1949, I was a nine-year-old war refugee, who had lost my mother and was coming to live with the father I did not know. My mother, Eleni Gatzoyiannis, had been imprisoned and shot for sending my sisters and me to freedom.

I was thirteen years old when I entered Chandler Junior High. Shortly after I arrived, I was told to select a hobby to pursue during “club hours.” The idea of hobbies and clubs made no sense to my immigrant ears, but I decided to follow the prettiest girl in my class. She led me into the presence of Miss Hurd, the school newspaper adviser and English teacher.

A tough woman with determined eyes, Miss Hurd had no patience with lazy bones. She drilled us in grammar, assigned stories for us to read and discuss, and eventually taught us how to put out a newspaper. Her introduction to the literary wealth of Greece gave me a new perspective on my war-torn homeland, making me proud of my origins. Her efforts inspired me to understand the logic and structure of the English language. Owing to her inspiration, during my next twenty-five years, I became a journalist by profession.

Miss Hurd retired at the age of 62. By then, she had taught for a total of 41 years. Even after her retirement, she continually made a project of unwilling students in whom she spied a spark of potential. The students were mainly from the most troubled homes, yet she alternately charmed them with her own special brand of tough love, until the spark caught fire.

Miss Hurd was the one who directed my grief and pain into writing. But for Miss Hurd, I wouldn’t have become a reporter.

21. What does the underlined sentence in Paragraph Two most probably mean?

A. Hobbies and clubs did not interest the author. B. The author turned a deaf ear to joining clubs.

C. Hobbies and clubs were inaccessible to immigrants like the author. D. The author had no idea what hobbies and clubs were all about.

22. Which of the following caused the author to think of his homeland differently?

2

A. Stepping on the American soil for the first time. B. Her mother’s miserable death. C. Being exposed to Greek literary works. D. Following the prettiest girl in his class. 23. It can be inferred from Paragraph Four that ___________.

A. Miss Hurd’s contribution was recognized across the nation.

B. Students from troubled homes preferred Miss Hurd’s teaching style. C. The students Miss Hurd taught were all finally fired. D. Miss Hurd employed a unique way to handle these students. 24. The passage is mainly concerned with ___________.

A. how the author became a journalist B. the importance of inspiration in one’s life C. the teacher who shaped the author’s life D. factors contributing to a successful career B

Nobody wants to be called a helicopter parent, who manages to be responsible for whatever a child does, however small a matter is—but parents want to protect their kids. At least no playing with sticks means no risk of lost eyes.

Yet as Gever Tulley points out in Fifty Dangerous Things(You Should Let Your Children Do),children who grow up as safe as possible become adults who aren’t adventurous, highly adaptable, or confident. Sometimes you have to fall out of a tree to figure out how to climb one the right way, and learning that you can accomplish such a thing on your own teaches you that you can be self—sufficient.

With Fifty Dangerous Things, Gever Tulley, has written a handbook of activities that are, yes, dangerous at some level-like playing with fire, breaking glass, and opening batteries. The book is a blueprint to help parents and children explore the world, and ensure the children grow up, with a little common sense and a lot of curiosity.

Both the advice and the warnings are down to earth. Yes, there are risks, but Tulley provides good ways to learn to avoid them through your own skill. It takes work to raise a child who can use a table saw or build a campfire. But with this book in hand, it'll be a satisfying adventure.

We see a child climbing a tree and the first thing we think of is how they might fall and be disabled for life. We seldom say, “Look at how well Sarah is climbing that tree!” When we protect children from every possible source of danger, we also prevent them from having the kinds of experiences that develop their sense of self—reliance, their ability to deal with risks, and their sense of accomplishment.

25. According to the author, a helicopter parent .

A. lets his kids do whatever they want to B. allows his kids do what is dangerous C. does whatever he can to protect his kids D. considers whatever a kid does is risky 26. In Gever Tulley’s view, .

A. children should grow up in a completely safe environment B. doing dangerous things can be harmful to some degree C. children should keep away from dangerous environment D. dangerous activities can make adaptable children

27. Which of the following is most likely to be included in Tulley’s book? A. Reading books before sleep. B. Climbing up a steep rock

C. Riding a bike to school. D. Breaking windows of the classroom 28. The author thinks the advice and warnings in Fifty Dangerous Things is . A. practical for children to explore the world safely B. too abstract for the children to understand C. much too dangerous for most parents to accept D. risky for children to try all adventurous things C

It's often said that the eye is the window to the soul. But in this case, the eye is the window to Windows. At least, that was the goal when EyeTech Digital Systems got the help of some BYU engineering students in creating an all-in-one eye-tracking system.

The idea behind the project was to create an inexpensive computer system that could be controlled completely with a person's eyes. The hope was that this system could be used by people with disabilities in parts of the world where they can't afford expensive eye-tracking systems. The students created the tablet（书写板）for their yearlong engineering project for their customer, EyeTech Digital Systems, an Arizona-based company that designs and develops eye-tracking software.

A separate BYU engineering team also worked with EyeTech last year to develop and improve the initial eye-tracking technology, but this year's focus was to put the eye tracking into a housing similar to a thick PC. The finished product runs Windows 7 and has the eye-tracking system built in. After a quick

adjustment, the system can move the mouse to wherever the user is currently looking. All it takes is a blink（眨眼）to click.

Systems with similar abilities can cost upwards of $14,000. But the students were able to find cheaper, readily available parts, pushing the cost down to under $1,500. Jedediah Nieveen, the captain for this year's team, said the project was a challenge, but one that was rewarding on many levels. \"A lot of times in school you just work problems out of books,\" he said. \"But this allowed us to take what we learned and apply it to something in real life, something that can help a lot of people, and that's really helped me.\"

Although the primary purpose of the product is to help people with disabilities, the technology could also have broader applications in the fields of research, advertising and even gaming. 32. According to the text, the eye-tracking system is __ _. A. a high-tech computer B. a computer system operated by

eyes

C. a way of protecting eyes D. a software against information

theft

33. The eye-tracking system was created to ________. A. help the poor students B. improve the computer system C. support the disabled people D. help to cure people's

disabilities

34. What did the BYU engineering students value most during the project?

A. Earning money for their education. B. Putting their theory into practice. C. Showing their talents in technology. D. Increasing their job opportunities. 35. What can be inferred about the future of the eye-tracking system? A. It can improve the disabled people's main way of life. B. It is welcome only to the disabled people.

C. It'll change the disabled people's social position. D. It may face a promising market. 第二节 (共5小题；每小题2分, 满分l0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。

The Internet has opened up a whole new online world for us to meet, chat and go where we’ve never been before.

But just as in face-to-face communication, there are some rules of behavior that should be followed when on line. 36 Imagine how you’d feel if you were in the other person’s shoes.

For anything you’re about to send: ask yourself, “Would I say this to the person’s face?” If the answer is no, rewrite and reread. 37

If someone in the chat room is rude to you, your instinct (本能) is to fire back in the same manner. But try not to do so. 38 If it was caused by a disagreement with another member, try to fix the situation by politely discussing it. Remember to respect the beliefs and opinions of others in the chat room.

39 Offer advice when asked by newcomers, as they may not be sure what to do or how to communicate. When someone makes a mistake, whether it’s a stupid question or an unnecessarily long answer, be kind about it. If it’s a small mistake, you may not need to say anything. Even if you feel strongly about it, think twice before saying anything. Having good manners yourself doesn’t give you license to correct everyone else. 40 At the same time, if you find you are wrong, be sure to correct yourself and apologize to those that you have offended.

It is not polite to ask others personal questions such as their age, sex and marital status. Unless you know the person very well, and you are both comfortable with sharing personal information, don’t ask such questions.

A. It’s natural that there are some people who speak rudely or make mistakes online.

B. Repeat the process till you feel sure that you’d feel comfortable saying the words to the person’s face.

5

C. Everyone was new to the network once.

D. The basic rule is simple: treat others in the same way you would want to be treated.

E. When you send short messages to a person online, you must say something beautiful to hear. F. You should either ignore the person, or use your chat software to block their messages. G. If you do decide to tell someone about a mistake, point it out politely. 第三部分：英语知识运用（共两节，满分45分）

My uncle will never forget what happened to him yesterday.

Yesterday evening my uncle was invited to dinner by his friends. He was so glad that he drank a lot of beers. As a result he got drunk. After the meal, his friends tried to persuade him not to drive home, but he didn’t listen to them, saying “No problem” and insisted on doing so. He got into the car and drove away. A few minutes later, he was winding his way in the street when his car ran into a tall tree. He was badly injured but still alive. The police came to the scene, and he was taken to hospital. Unfortunately he had to stay in hospital for several days .Worse still he was fined by the police and his driving license was revoked.

How he regretted what he had done! 听力原文： Text 1 W: What do you think we need to buy for our new kitchen? M: We've got a fridge and a dinner table already. We need some chairs. Text 2

W: Good morning, evrybody. Today for our writing class, we are glad to have Mr. Henry Stone with us, a well-known writer in this country. He’s going to share with us his writing experiences. Now, Henry, please tell us how you find so many interesting things for your stories.

M: Okay, I watch people a lot. I do that when I travel. I’ve been to many countries such as Britain, Italy and Sweden. So I spend a lot of time at airports. While waiting for my flights, I watch people passing by and start my imagination. For example, the other day when I was waiting for my flight for Greece, I saw a couple. They were buying magazines at that moment. They were not wearing business clothes but the man was carrying a suitcase. Every few seconds the woman looked around. I wondered if someone was following them. Perhaps they were running away and, you know this reminded me of a story in the newspaper that day. A bank clerk stole 1,000,000 pounds a week before and disappeared with his wife. There was a picture of them in the paper. The couple really looked like the thieves. Maybe I should stop them. Just then I saw them say goodbye to each other and the woman walked away. Well sometimes I make mistakes like that but I find things like that very useful for my writing.
