That holiday morning I didn’t have to attend school.Usually,on holidays,Mother 　36　 me to sleep in.And I would certainly take full advantage of it.On this particular morning,　37　,I felt like getting up early. 
I stood by my window overlooking the 　38　,having nothing better to do.But as it turned out,I was soon to learn about something 　39　 in life.

Several thoughts 　44　 my mind as I watched him work.He wasn’t well-dressed.He had on a pair of shorts and a(n) 　45　 T-shirt.The bicycle he rode was not by any means the kind modern　46　 would want to be seen riding on.But he seemed 　47　 with life.There he was,working hard at his small business,　48　 at passers-by and stopping to chat now and then 　49　 elderly men and women on their way to the market nearby. 
There was a noticeable touch of 　50　 in the way he seemed to be doing things—　51　 the windscreen(挡风玻璃),then standing back to admire it;scrubbing(擦净)the wheels and 　52　,standing back to see what they looked like after the scrub. 
It was a 　53　 to learn,I felt.At no age need one have to beg for a 　54　 if one has good health and is willing to work hard.For a while I felt 　55　 of myself.Young as I am—just sixteen,and there was this old man who must have been usefully engaged perhaps before the sun appeared above the horizon.

A
(2012江西,A)
Mark and his brother Jason both were looking at the shining new computer enviously.Jason was determined not to go against their father’s wishes but Mark was more adventurous than his brother.He loved experimenting and his aim was to become a scientist like his father.
“Dad will be really mad if he finds out you’ve been playing with his new computer,”Jason said,“He told us not to touch it.”
“He won’t find out,”Mark said,“I’ll just have a quick look and shut it down.”
Mark had been scolded before for touching his father’s equipment.But his curiosity was difficult to control and this new computer really puzzled him.
It was a strange-looking machine—one his dad had brought home from the laboratory where he worked.“It’s an experimental model,”his father had explained,“so don’t touch it under any circumstances.”But his father’s warning only served to make Mark more curious.Without any further thought,Mark turned on the power switch.The computer burst into life and seconds later,the screen turned into colors,shifting and changing and then two big white words appeared in the centre of the screen:“SPACE TRANSPORTER.”
“Yes!”Mark cried excitedly,“It’s a computer game.I knew it!Dad’s only been pretending to work.He’s really been playing games instead.”A new message appeared on the screen:
“ENTER NAMES
VOYAGER 1:...
VOYAGER 2:...”
Mark’s fingers flew across the keyboard as he typed in both of their names.
“INPUT ACCEPTED.START TRANSPORT PROGRAM.AUTO-RETRIEVE INITIATED(自动回收程序已启动).”
The screen turned even brighter and a noise suddenly rose in volume.
“I think we’d better shut it off,Mark,”Jason yelled,reaching for the power switch.He was really frightened.
But his hand never reached the switch.A single beam of dazzling white light burst out of the computer screen,wrapping the boys in its glow(光芒),until they themselves seemed to be glowing.Then it died down just as suddenly as it had burst into life.And the boys were no longer there.On the screen,the letters changed.
“TRANSPORT SUCCESSFUL.DESTINATION(目的地):MARS.RETRIEVE DATE:2025.”
56.Why did Mark touch the computer against his father’s warning?
A.He wanted to take a voyage.

57.Where did the boys’ father most likely work?

D.In an information processing center.
58.Mark thought “SPACE TRANSPORTER” on the screen was the name of 　　　. 
A.a computer game
B.a company website
C.a software producer
D.an astronomy program

A.He was afraid of being scolded.
B.He didn’t like the loud noise and light.

(2012江西,D)
For those who make journeys across the world,the speed of travel today has turned the countries into a series of villages.Distances between them appear no greater to a modern traveler than those which once faced men as they walked from village to village.Jet planes fly people from one end of the earth to the other,allowing them a freedom of movement undreamt of a hundred years ago.
Yet some people wonder if the revolution in travel has gone too far.A price has been paid,they say,for the conquest(征服) of time and distance.Travel is something to be enjoyed,not endured(忍受).The boat offers leisure and time enough to appreciate the ever-changing sights and sounds of a journey.A journey by train also has a special charm about it.Lakes and forests and wild,open plains sweeping past your carriage window create a grand view in which time and distance mean nothing.On board a plane,however,there is just the blank blue of the sky filling the narrow windows of the airplane.The soft lighting,in-flight films and gentle music make up the only world you know,and the hours progress slowly.
Then there is the time spent being ‘processed’ at a modern airport.People are conveyed like robots along walkways;baggage is weighed,tickets produced,examined and produced yet again before the passengers move to another waiting area.Journeys by rail and sea take longer,yes,but the hours devoted to being ‘processed’ at departure and arrival in airports are luckily absent.No wonder,then,that the modern high-speed trains are winning back passengers from the airlines.
Man,however,is now a world traveler and cannot turn his back on the airplane.The working lives of too many people depend upon it;whole new industries have been built around its design and operation.The holiday-maker,too,with limited time to spend,patiently endures the busy airports and the limited space of the flight to gain those extra hours and even days,relaxing in the sun.Speed controls people’s lives;time saved,in work or play,is the important thing—or so we are told.Perhaps those first horsemen,riding free across the wild,open plains,were enjoying a better world than the one we know today.They could travel at will,and the clock was not their master.
71.What does the writer try to express in Paragraph 1?
A.Travel by plane has speeded up the growth of villages.
B.The speed of modern travel has made distances relatively short.
C.The freedom of movement has helped people realize their dreams.
D.Man has been fond of traveling rather than staying in one place.
72.How does the writer support the underlined statement in Paragraph 2?
A.By giving instructions.
B.By analyzing cause and effect.
C.By following the order of time.
D.By giving examples.
73.According to Paragraph 3,passengers are turning back to modern high-speed trains because 　　　. 
A.they pay less for the tickets
B.they feel safer during the travel
C.they can enjoy higher speed of travel
D.they don’t have to waste time being ‘processed’
74.What does the last sentence of the passage mean?
A.They could enjoy free and relaxing travel.
B.They needed the clock to tell the time.
C.They preferred traveling on horseback.
D.They could travel with their master.
75.What is the main idea of the passage?
A.Air travel benefits people and industries.
B.Train travel has some advantages over air travel.
C.Great changes have taken place in modern travel.
D.The high speed of air travel is gained at a cost.

[1]Stamp collectors usually collect stamps only from certain countries or regions.The traditional method of stamp collecting is to organize stamp collection according to the issue dates.
[2]Of course,there are many 　　　　　　　.You can collect stamps relating to a particular theme.For example,sport lovers may choose the Olympic theme.They try their best to find Olympic stamps issued by various parts of the world every four years.Some of them may want to concentrate on even more specific sport activities like ball games,gymnasium,swimming,etc. 
[3]If you like astronomy,you may be keen on collecting stamps describing the stars,planets,spacecraft,spacemen,etc.Once you have fixed the topic,you no longer need to bother about stamps other than the theme you selected.Then,you can put all your effort to collect the stamps around it.
[4]China issues zodiac animal stamps(十二生肖邮票)every year to celebrate the Lunar New Year.They are extremely popular and a lot of collectors wait patiently for 12 years to collect a full set of them.Hong Kong’s Lunar New Year special stamp series began in 2000 with the Year of Dragon and the twelfth and final set was issued in 2011,the Year of Rabbit.Recently some Western countries have issued zodiac animal stamps,which attract a lot of attention as well.
[5]You may choose any theme you like.However,you should bear in mind an essential point.The topic you choose should not be too narrow.Otherwise,it is very difficult to accumulate stamps around the topic.You will be depressed and even lose your interest in collecting stamps.
[6]Collecting stamps with themes is especially popular among teenagers because there is a wide range of choices for them.The main challenge is how you organize and expand your collection around your theme.
76.What is the main idea of the passage?(no more than 5 words)
 
77.Fill in the blank in Paragraph 2 with proper words.(no more than 5 words)

江西卷
1.C　2.A　3.B　4.C　5.A　6.C　7.B　8.B　9.C　10.C　11.A　12.B　13.B　14.A　15.C　16.B　17.A　18.A　19.C　20.A
21.C　考查冠词。hotels在此处是泛指,所以第一个空不用任何冠词;by the sea意为“在海边”。故本题选C项。
22.B　考查情态动词。句意:既然苏西不与我们一起吃晚饭,我们原本不必买那么多食物。needn’t have done表示原本不必要做某事,但事实上已经做了。
23.B　考查代词。句意:我哥哥想买一块好的手表,但那家商店没有一款适合的。nothing表示什么也没有;no one只能指代人;题干中没有表明那家商店只有两款手表,所以neither也不合适。
24.C　考查动词短语。句意:我已经养成了在放学回家的路上去看望爷爷奶奶的习惯。get into the habit of是固定搭配,意为“养成……的习惯”。
25.D　考查名词性从句。句意:他突然想到他把钥匙落在办公室里了。句首的it是形式主语,真正的主语是that引导的主语从句,that引导主语从句在从句中不作成分,但不能省略。
26.C　考查动词时态。根据“Look!”一词可判断,此处强调现在的结果是“有人把沙发清理干净了”,所以用现在完成时。
27.A　考查交际用语。根据答句中的“It wasn’t very much.”可判断,回答者的意思是“不必为此担心,钱又不多”。C项表示“不管你的事”,D项表示“由你说了算,由你做决定”。没有B项这种表达方式。
28.A　考查定语从句。分析句子结构可知,nearly all the paintings had been sold是主句,which引导的非限制性定语从句修饰前面的时间,which在从句中作主语。
29.B　考查名词。句意:你最好写下那个餐馆的电话号码,以供日后参考。for future reference是一个常用词组,意为“以供日后参考”。
30.A　考查动词。句意:我们一致认为,那个小屋将会成为一家人度假的完美居所。make在此处意为“成为”。
31.D　考查从属连词。句意:你可以借我的车,只要你保证不开得太快。as long as意为“只要”,引导条件状语从句。unless如果不,除非;even if即使,纵然;in case假使,免得,以防。
32.C　考查倒装句式。表示否定意义的副词(词组)位于句首时,主句采用部分倒装,故排除B、D两项;根据语境并结合定语从句的时态可判断应使用现在完成时,排除A项。
33.C　考查非谓语动词。句意:完成她的工程以后,她被学校邀请给新生做演讲。“做演讲”发生在was invited之后,所以用动词不定式的一般式作主语补足语。
34.D　考查副词短语。句意:他似乎给人的印象是在巴黎玩得不开心,(事实)恰恰相反,他玩得非常尽兴。above all首先,最重要的是;what’s more而且;as a result因此,所以;on the contrary (与此)相反,正相反。
35.B　考查非谓语动词。该题容易误选A项,因为大家一般认为letter与offer存在被动关系,但此处offer后面有两个宾语,显然,应使用offer sb.sth.的主动形式作后置定语修饰the official letter,说明信的内容。
36.B　根据上下文语境并结合常识可知,在假日里,父母通常允许孩子们睡个懒觉。故选allow“允许”。其他选项不符合语境。
