There’s a lady here my size!” The mother rushed to her son; then she turned to me to apologize. I smiled and told her, “It’s okay.” Then I talked to the boy, “Hi, I’m Darry Kramer. How are you?” He studied me from head to toe, and asked, “Are you a little mommy?” “Yes, I have a son,” I answered. “Why are you so little?” he asked. “It’s the way I was born,” I said. “Some people are little. Some are tall. I’m just not going to grow any bigger.” After I answered his other questions, I shook the boy’s hand and left.My life as a little person is filled with stories like that. I enjoy talking to children and explaining why I look different from their parents.It takes only one glance to see my uniqueness. I stand three feet nine inches tall. I was born an achondroplasia dwarf (侏儒). Despite this, I did all the things other kids did when I was growing up.I didn’t realize how short I was until I started school. Some kids joked on me, calling me names. Then I knew. I began to hate the first day of school each year. New students would always stare at me as I struggled to climb the school bus stairs.But I learned to smile and accept the fact that I was going to be noticed my whole life. I decided to make my uniqueness an advantage rather than a disadvantage. What I lacked in height, I made up for in personality.I’m 47 now, and the stares have not diminished as I’ve grown older. People are amazed when they see me driving. I try to keep a good attitude. When people are rude, I remind myself, “Look what else I have--a great family, nice friends.”It’s the children’s questions that make my life special. I enjoy answering their questions. My hope is that I will encourage them to accept their peers (a person of the same age, class, position, etc.), whatever size and shape they come in, and treat them with respect.25．Why did the mother apologize to the author?A．Because the boy studied the author from head to toe.B．Because the boy laughed at the author.C．Because they boy said the author was shorter than him.D．Because the mother thought the boy’s words had hurt the author.26．When did the author realize that she was too short?A．When she grew up.B．When she began to go to school.C．When she was 47 years old.D．When she met the boy in the supermarket.27．Which of the following word can best replace the underlined word “diminished”?A．doubted B．decreasedC．remained D．improved28．Which is NOT true about the author according to the passage?A．She suffered lots of discrimination when growing up.B．She is grateful for what she has.C．She doesn’t see herself different.D．She thinks people should be treated equally.CA new study published in the Journal of Marriage and Family claims that all that time you spend parenting just doesn’t matter. But it’s a claim that, despite the enthusiastic and widespread coverage by the media, does not hold water.The research suggests that children's outcomes (including behavior problems, emotional problems, and academic performance) are barely connected with the time that parents spend with their children. The researchers examined the time diaries of 1, 600 children, looking at parenting time and outcomes when the kids were aged 3 to 11 in 1997, and again in 2002, when they were between 8 and 16.A time diary is a detailed report showing you where your time is spent each day.This research largely reflects the failure of the authors to correctly measure parental input(投入).It just looked at time diaries from two particular days ─one a weekday and the other a weekend day.Trying to get a sense of the time you spend parenting from a single day's diary is a bit like trying to measure your income from a single day. If yesterday was payday, you would look rich, but if it's not, you would be reported as the poor. You get a clearer picture only by looking at your income-or your parenting time-over a more meaningful period.What you did yesterday should not be taken as a representative of what you did last year. This is why most high-quality studies of parenting time focus on how often parents read to their children, play with them or help them with different approaches to parenting.As an exhausted parent who doesn't get enough time to work out, and who hasn't seen a movie for months, I understand why so many of us might seize on studies suggesting that we should take more time for ourselves. Perhaps we should. But I agree with Ariel Kalil, a developmental psychologist, on the suggestion that "when parents spend high-quality time with their children, their children are more likely to succeed".29．The underlined words "hold water" in the first paragraph probably mean ________.A．to be convincing B．to be surprisingC．to be confusing D．to be usual30．The study was conducted to explore the link between ________.A．parenting time and children's outcomesB．time diaries and child developmentC．children's habits and parents' influenceD．daily activities and children's problems31．How is Paragraph 4 mainly developed?A．By giving descriptions.B．By analyzing the cause.C．By making a comparison.D．By offering research findings.32．The author may agree that high-quality studies of parenting time should ________.A．be completed in one monthB．adopt some different approachesC．concentrate mainly on learning timeD．be based on data of a longer time periodDThe Sabi Sand Game Reserve in South Africa is one of the richest wildlife regions in the African continent. Over 200 species of mammals and 350 different birds can be found in its vast plains, grasslands and forests.I spoke to Michael Rattray, chairman of the Sabi Sand management committee, about the management policies. “If in a thousand years' time the reserve is still a wonderful habitat for wildlife, then we will have succeeded in our mission. Various measures are being put in place. These include dealing with the problem of erosion（侵蚀）. In 1996 we had abnormally high rainfall. This could have been absolutely destructive. However, we have successfully fought erosion using gabion stretchers, which are wire baskets filled with rocks. We have also used a lot of old aerial photographs, which have helped us return the land to its earlier state. This meant recreating open grassland areas to attract different types of animals,”he said.Apart from these measures, the reserve employs a wide range of local workers. Building staff accommodation of any sort would make a big impact on the environment and would go against the aim of keeping the reserve as natural as possible. Instead, transport is provided so employees can live a normal life with their families outside the area, and the human impact is kept to a minimum.Visitors to the reserve spend about six hours a day in open vehicles, observing wildlife on game drives. They are accompanied by a ranger and a local tracker. I shall never forget the moment on a game drive when a cheetah with her five cubs was pointed out to me. She was lying in a sea of long yellow grass, her markings almost invisible. We got close enough to hear her purr.The Sabi Sand Game Reserve is a place where animals have no fear of humans. It is impossible to quantify the benefits of spending time in such an environment.33．What helped solve the problem of erosion?A．High rainfall. B．Gabion stretchers.C．Empty baskets. D．Aerial photographs.34．What can we know about visitors to the reserve?A．They can walk to the open fields.B．They must have very good eyesight.C．They cannot go around the reserve alone.D．They have two ways to enter the reserve.35．What would be the best title for the text? .A．An introduction to the Sabi Sand Game ReserveB．The importance of protecting wildlifeC．Some advice on visiting the Sabi Sand Game ReserveD．The Sabi Sand Game Reserve—the biggest wildlife region第二节 七选五（共5个小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文，从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。Most of us will admit that on occasions we can be bad-tempered. This can be for a number of reasons.36 As the body and mind are tired, it seems to take us less time to become angry just because of something that is of little importance. Young children are usually the cause of tiredness and it is highly likely that parents allow themselves to release(释放) their exhaustion directly at the children. Children are very good at remembering these instances and it will affect them for a long time. 37 Diet and lifestyle can be key factors in causing a bad temper. Some people don't realize that their diet can directly affect their moods. Processed food and items that contain a lot of sugars, especially those that aren't natural sugars, can cause a rise in blood sugar. 38 Similarly, lifestyle choices can encourage bad tempers and poor moods, especially if drug and alcohol are used too frequently.39 If you have noticed that you are becoming increasingly bad-tempered, it is important that you take steps to try and regain control. 40 .After you find the cause, try and make positive changes to prevent this from occurring in the future.A．Find your ways to release your anger.B．Check what it is that causes the bad mood.C．Tiredness is often the most common reason.D．Managing your anger is good for your health.E．Therefore, it is important to have more patience when with children.F．This rise can have a very negative effect on moods and mental performance.G．So it is important to keep away from these temptations(诱惑) for your own mental state.第三部分: 语言知识运用完型填空（共20小题，每小题1.5分，满分30分）阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的四个选项（A、B、C、D）中，选出可以填人空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。At 14, my life was filled with school, homework, boy scouts, friends, and occasional work for local farmers. I was always 41 , but I didn't have much direction. Then, something 42 ： a new master was assigned（分派） to our scout. Jerry brought excitement and adventure into my life. Every week I 43 something new. He brought 44 into my life and taught me what was the most important. A few years later, after 45 home from a two-year service mission, I found myself searching for a(n) 46 . I was twenty-one and I had no idea what I wanted to do. On a spring afternoon, I drove to one of my favorite hiking trails and 47 up to a rock. It was there that I prayed for guidance on what 48 I should take in my life and I knew confidently that everything would turn out 49 . When I arrived home later that evening, there was a(n) 50 by the phone with a message for me to call Jerry; it was 51 . I immediately dialed the number and was very delighted to hear Jerry's familiar 52 . Wonderful memories of exciting scout camps 53 into my mind. “Do you know computers?” Jerry asked. “Yes, I’ve 54 one before,” I replied. “Well, I need you to come to work for me in my new 55 company”, he stated. “When can you start?”I knew this was the answer to my prayer. “I can start tomorrow!” I shouted. The next five years of my life passed so 56 . Jerry again took me under his wing, but this time he 57 me in business. He taught me how to sell, how to market, how to 58 people, and how to grow a business from almost 59 to a nationwide success. Jerry's patience and example laid a foundation of learning and confidence that I needed in the career that I have now 60 for twenty years. Jerry was that person in my life.41．A．tired B．naughty C．busy D．happy42．A．changed B．approached C．stopped D．disappeared43．A．found B．learned C．received D．offered44．A．wealth B．cheer C．direction D．excitement45．A．calling B．driving C．leaving D．returning46．A．opportunity B．career C．origin D．destination47．A．walked B．stood C．climbed D．ran48．A．actions B．methods C．attitudes D．steps49．A．fine B．correct C．fluent D．smooth50．A．letter B．note C．reminder D．email51．A．useful B．complex C．urgent D．necessary52．A．words B．voice C．shouts D．laughter53．A．crowded B．forced C．pushed D．pressed54．A．broken B．possessed C．purchased D．used55．A．trade B．travel C．software D．movie56．A．hopefully B．quickly C．disappointedly D．miserably57．A．assisted B．impressed C．educated D．controlled58．A．manage B．comfort C．cheat D．defeat59．A．something B．nothing C．anything D．everything60．A．taken over B．taken in C．taken on D．taken up第Ⅱ卷第一节：语法填空（共10小题；每小题1.5分，共15分）阅读下面材料，在空白处填入适当的内容（1个单词）或括号内单词的正确形式。A friend of ours was walking down a deserted Mexican beach at sunset.

This is why most high-quality studies of parenting time focus on how often parents read to their children, play with them or help them with different approaches to parenting.As an exhausted parent who doesn't get enough time to work out, and who hasn't seen a movie for months, I understand why so many of us might seize on studies suggesting that we should take more time for ourselves. Perhaps we should. But I agree with Ariel Kalil, a developmental psychologist, on the suggestion that "when parents spend high-quality time with their children, their children are more likely to succeed".29．The underlined words "hold water" in the first paragraph probably mean ________.A．to be convincing B．to be surprisingC．to be confusing D．to be usual30．The study was conducted to explore the link between ________.A．parenting time and children's outcomesB．time diaries and child developmentC．children's habits and parents' influenceD．daily activities and children's problems31．How is Paragraph 4 mainly developed?A．By giving descriptions.B．By analyzing the cause.C．By making a comparison.D．By offering research findings.32．The author may agree that high-quality studies of parenting time should ________.A．be completed in one monthB．adopt some different approachesC．concentrate mainly on learning timeD．be based on data of a longer time periodDThe Sabi Sand Game Reserve in South Africa is one of the richest wildlife regions in the African continent. Over 200 species of mammals and 350 different birds can be found in its vast plains, grasslands and forests.I spoke to Michael Rattray, chairman of the Sabi Sand management committee, about the management policies. “If in a thousand years' time the reserve is still a wonderful habitat for wildlife, then we will have succeeded in our mission. Various measures are being put in place. These include dealing with the problem of erosion（侵蚀）. In 1996 we had abnormally high rainfall. This could have been absolutely destructive. However, we have successfully fought erosion using gabion stretchers, which are wire baskets filled with rocks. We have also used a lot of old aerial photographs, which have helped us return the land to its earlier state. This meant recreating open grassland areas to attract different types of animals,”he said.Apart from these measures, the reserve employs a wide range of local workers. Building staff accommodation of any sort would make a big impact on the environment and would go against the aim of keeping the reserve as natural as possible. Instead, transport is provided so employees can live a normal life with their families outside the area, and the human impact is kept to a minimum.Visitors to the reserve spend about six hours a day in open vehicles, observing wildlife on game drives. They are accompanied by a ranger and a local tracker. I shall never forget the moment on a game drive when a cheetah with her five cubs was pointed out to me. She was lying in a sea of long yellow grass, her markings almost invisible. We got close enough to hear her purr.The Sabi Sand Game Reserve is a place where animals have no fear of humans. It is impossible to quantify the benefits of spending time in such an environment.33．What helped solve the problem of erosion?A．High rainfall. B．Gabion stretchers.C．Empty baskets. D．Aerial photographs.34．What can we know about visitors to the reserve?A．They can walk to the open fields.B．They must have very good eyesight.C．They cannot go around the reserve alone.D．They have two ways to enter the reserve.35．What would be the best title for the text? .A．An introduction to the Sabi Sand Game ReserveB．The importance of protecting wildlifeC．Some advice on visiting the Sabi Sand Game ReserveD．The Sabi Sand Game Reserve—the biggest wildlife region第二节 七选五（共5个小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文，从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。Most of us will admit that on occasions we can be bad-tempered. This can be for a number of reasons.36 As the body and mind are tired, it seems to take us less time to become angry just because of something that is of little importance. Young children are usually the cause of tiredness and it is highly likely that parents allow themselves to release(释放) their exhaustion directly at the children. Children are very good at remembering these instances and it will affect them for a long time. 37 Diet and lifestyle can be key factors in causing a bad temper. Some people don't realize that their diet can directly affect their moods. Processed food and items that contain a lot of sugars, especially those that aren't natural sugars, can cause a rise in blood sugar. 38 Similarly, lifestyle choices can encourage bad tempers and poor moods, especially if drug and alcohol are used too frequently.39 If you have noticed that you are becoming increasingly bad-tempered, it is important that you take steps to try and regain control. 40 .After you find the cause, try and make positive changes to prevent this from occurring in the future.A．Find your ways to release your anger.B．Check what it is that causes the bad mood.C．Tiredness is often the most common reason.D．Managing your anger is good for your health.E．Therefore, it is important to have more patience when with children.F．This rise can have a very negative effect on moods and mental performance.G．So it is important to keep away from these temptations(诱惑) for your own mental state.第三部分: 语言知识运用完型填空（共20小题，每小题1.5分，满分30分）阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的四个选项（A、B、C、D）中，选出可以填人空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。At 14, my life was filled with school, homework, boy scouts, friends, and occasional work for local farmers.

The next five years of my life passed so 56 . Jerry again took me under his wing, but this time he 57 me in business. He taught me how to sell, how to market, how to 58 people, and how to grow a business from almost 59 to a nationwide success.

I would appreciate it if you could allow me to ask for a leave of absence.Thank you.Yours,Li Hua
