(Text 1)

M：Sorry, I have forgotten John's address.

W：You forgot again! It's 1343 King Street.

(Text 2)

M：The car is very nice.Did you buy it last month?

W：No, I rented it for a holiday last week. And my own car I bought three years ago is still good.

(Text 3)

M：Your skirt is quite beautiful in color, isn't it?

W：Yes, I bought it at a sale for half price. It cost me $12.

(Text 4)

M：I hope I can see you at my birthday party.

W：Oh, dear, I've almost forgotten. When is it?

M：Well, the day after April Fools' Day. Easy to remember, isn't it?

W：Yes, of course.

(Text 5)

M：I hear you are going to drive to New York this weekend.

W：Oh, I've changed my mind.

M：What?

W：I think flying will be more comfortable.

(Text 6)

W：Have a look at these brochures. Have you ever thought of visiting South America?

M：Well, I've traveled to Brazil on business twice and I'd really like to go there a third time.

W：Great! There will be a flight on Oct. 25th and ...

M：Flight? Forget that! I am afraid of flying.

W：Oh, how about traveling by ship?

M：Sorry, my wife is seasick.

W：What about a coach tour? It includes many interesting places and it's quite cheap.

M：OK. That's it.

(Text 7)

W：Did you enjoy yourself in the summer camp?

M：Yes. The food was great. Everything was great, and I made some new friends there.

W：Was there anything impressive?

 M：Yeah, the hiking through the Grand Canyon was the most unforgettable. Not only did it test our endurance, but gave us a chance to know more about each other. A boy from Tokyo taught us a few Japanese words and we learned how to dance from the only Indian girl in our group.

W：Do you have any suggestions for us?

M：Well, actually I do hope that the camp can be extended to 10 days instead of just a week so that everybody can have a good rest.

(Text 8)

M：Hello, Carol. You look unhappy. What's the matter?

W：Hi, David. I've just come back from the stadium. You know, there was a wonderful volleyball match this afternoon. But my favorite team was beaten.

M：Sometimes you win while sometimes you lose.

W：Yeah. But it is still hard to believe it. Oh, forget it. What about your performance?

M：It was a success. Joan is such a talented actress that the role Juliet she played attracted all of the audience's attention and moved them to tears in the last scene.

W：You must be the most handsome Romeo.

M：Thank you.

(Text 9)

W：Are you available tonight?

M：What's up?

W：Can you do me a favor to fix the lock for me?

M：Of course. I will bring the tool myself.

W：Why bother? I do have a hammer.

M：OK.

W：Is 7 pm. fine with you?

M：Actually, I'll be at Mike's to watch the match between Real Madrid and Barcelona then. What about 5 pm?

W：Certainly. Thanks! Hope you won't miss the match.

M：I won't. Would you like to join us?

W：Sounds good. How can we get to Mike's?

M：We can either walk there or take a bus. It is not far away from your apartment.

W：Wait a moment. I'll call the garage to see whether my car is ready. Maybe we can drive there.

M：Oh, that would be great. I'm leaving for the supermarket. Nothing is better than watching a football match with a bottle of beer.

W：Really? I'm afraid I don't need to pick up the car as I can't drink and drive.

M：OK. We can go there on foot, and come back by taxi.

W：OK, it's a deal!

My father told me a family story about his mother, my grandmother.

In 1949, my father had just returned home from the war.On every American highway you could see soldiers in uniform hitchhiking home to their families, as was the custom at that time in America.

Sadly, the excitement of this reunion with his family soon disappeared.My grandmother became very ill and had to be in hospital.The doctors told my father that she needed a blood transfusion immediately or she wouldn't live through the night.The problem was that Grandmother's blood type was AB­， a very rare type even today, but even harder to get then because there were no blood banks or air flights to ship blood.All the family members had their blood tested, but not one member was a match.So the doctors gave the family no hope; my grandmother was dying.

My father left the hospital in tears to gather up all the family members, so that everyone would get a chance to tell Grandmother good­bye.As my father was driving down the highway, he passed a soldier in uniform hitchhiking home to his family.Deep in sadness, my father had no inclination at that moment to do a good deed.Yet it was almost as if something outside himself pulled him to a stop, and he waited as the stranger climbed into the car.

My father was too upset to even ask the soldier his name, but the soldier noticed my father's tears right away and asked why.My father told this total stranger everything.

It got very quiet in the car.Then this soldier reached his hand out to my father, in which rested the dog tags from around his neck.The blood type on the tags was AB­.The soldier told my father to turn the car around and get him to the hospital.

My grandmother lived until 1996, and to this day no one in our family knows the soldier's name.But my father has often wondered, was he a soldier or an angel in uniform?

Annoying brother or sister may break your toys, but he or she may help you when you are in trouble.A new study suggests that younger siblings might be good for your health.

Children who didn't welcome a baby brother or sister into the family before first grade had almost three times the likelihood of obesity compared with kids who experienced the birth of a sibling when they were around 3 to 4 years old, the study found.

“It is possibly because when there is a younger sibling in the family, a child might become more active — for example, running around more with their younger sibling，” said Julie Lumeng, a public health researcher at the University of Michigan.

“Maybe families are more likely to take the kids to the park when there is a younger sibling, or maybe the child is less likely to sit, watching TV, when there is a younger sibling to ask them to join more active pretend play，” she added.

Mealtimes might also be different with a second kid at the table.Parents of only child can often focus too much on what their kid eats, which can lead to bad eating habits, some previous research suggests.

“When parents use restrictive or pressure­to­eat feeding practices, children have an increased risk of being overweight，” said Jerica Berge, a researcher at the University of Minnesota.

“When a new child is introduced, parents may relax their focus on the older child's eating behaviors, making it possible for the older child to self­regulate their eating，” said Berge.“This self­regulation may lead to a healthier weight for the child with a sibling.”

For their study, Lumeng and colleagues followed 697 US children from birth through age 6.However，the authors acknowledged that their study lacked objectively measured birth weights and information on events such as a divorce, a move or a job loss in the family — all of which can influence the odds of children becoming obese.For more information about this topic, please click here.

A Turning Point

Seventy years ago I was quite a small little girl.My father was very ill then, and my mother took in sewing (缝纫) of any kind so we could live.She would sew far into the night with an old sewing machine.She never complained even when the food would be very scarce (稀少)．

Things were very bad that winter.Then a letter came from where her sewing machine was bought, saying that they would have to pick up her machine the next day unless payments were brought up to date.I remember when she read the letter I became frightened, I could picture us starving to death and all sorts of things that could come to a child's mind.My mother did not appear to be worried.However, she seemed to be quite calm about the matter.She said God would not disappoint her.I couldn't see how God was going to help us keep this old sewing machine.

The day when the men came for our machine arrived.There was a knock at the kitchen door.I was frightened as a child would be, for I was sure it was those men who would take away our sewing machine.Instead, a nicely dressed man stood at our door with a darling baby in his arms.

He asked my mother if she was Mrs Hill.When she said she was, he said, “I'm in trouble this morning and you have been recommended (推荐) by the neighbors as an honest and wonderful woman.My wife was rushed to the hospital this morning, and since we have no relatives here, and I must open my dentist office, I have nowhere to leave my baby.Could you possibly take care of her for a few days？” He continued, “I will pay you in advance.” With this he took out ten dollars and gave it to my mother.

Mother said, “Yes, yes, I will be glad to do so，” and took the baby from his arms.When the man left, my mother turned to me with tears streaming down a face that looked as though a light was shining on it.She said, “I knew God would never let them take away my machine.”

语篇解读：本文是一篇记叙文。作者小时候家里很穷，仅靠母亲用一台旧缝纫机给别人做衣服养家。有一天，母亲买旧缝纫机的地方来收缝纫机钱，如果我们拿不出钱，缝纫机就会被拿走。正当我们走投无路时，一位男士请求母亲帮他照看孩子并预付了钱，我们才摆脱了危机。

32．The turning point in the story may refer to         .

A．a letter to the family

B．the man's coming for help

C．the man's wife being rushed to the hospital

D．the man's trouble

解析：选B　推理判断题。第二段讲述了母亲买旧缝纫机的地方让交出缝纫机钱否则就会拿走缝纫机，第三段提到那天作者听到敲门声非常害怕，怕家里用来谋生的缝纫机被拿走。Instead, a nicely dressed man stood at our door with a darling baby in his arms.是故事的转折点，敲门的不是取走缝纫机的人，而是请求母亲照顾孩子并预付了钱的求助者，他的到来使作者家摆脱了危机。求助者的到来是故事的转折点，故选B。

33．Why did the man turn to the writer's mother for help?

A．The people around him recommended the mother to him.

B．He was familiar with the mother.

C．The mother had sewn for him.

A．his wife stayed in hospital

B．he was a dentist

C．he had no relatives here to turn to for help

D．he came for our sewing machine

解析：选D　细节理解题。根据第四段中的“My wife was rushed to the hospital this morning, and since we have no relatives here, and I must open my dentist office, I have nowhere to leave my baby.”可知，来者是一名牙医，必须要开牙医诊所。今天早上他的妻子被紧急送往医院，在这里又没有亲戚，所以没人帮忙照顾孩子。由此可知，他不是来取我们的缝纫机的。故选D。

35．What does mother mean by saying “I knew God would never let them take away my machine.”？

A．God can't live without the machine.

B．The sewing machine is my only support.

Moving into a new home in a new neighborhood is an exciting experience.Of course, you want to make sure that you become an accepted and valuable part of your new neighborhood.The easiest way to accomplish this is to make sure you conduct yourself as a good neighbor should.  36 

Perhaps one of the most important things you can do as a good neighbor is to keep your property (房产) neat, clean, and in good repair.  37   By choosing to keep the outside of the home in great shape, you will help to improve the look and feel of the area.

Second, take the overall appearance of the neighborhood seriously.When going for a walk, take along a small garbage bag.  38   This small act will let your neighbors know that you care about the area.

  39   If a neighbor is going to be out of town, offer to collect mail and newspapers.If a neighbor suffers an illness, offer to do the grocery shopping.Let them know that you are there to help in any way that is acceptable, while still respecting the privacy of your neighbor.

  40   By following the basic rules of respecting others, taking care of what belongs to you, and taking pride in the appearance of the neighborhood in general, you will quickly become a good neighbor that everyone appreciates.

A．In general, keep an eye on their property while they are gone.

B．A good neighbor is also one who likes to help out in small ways.

C. Being a good neighbor is more or less about considerate behavior.

D．Sometimes neighbors may go to the supermarket together to do shopping.

E．Should you come across waste paper thrown out of a passing car, pick it up.

F．People tend to take pride in keeping everything in their street fresh and inviting.

G．Here are a few tips to help you win over everyone in the neighborhood quickly.

语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文。文章从四个方面说明了如何做个好邻居，介绍了几个帮你迅速地融入新的社区的小技巧。

36.选G　第一段讲如果你想成为邻居中一个可以接受和有价值的一员，最简单的方法就是确保你的行为举止像一个好邻居应该有的。下文介绍了几种具体做法，G项(这里有一些技巧，可以帮助你迅速赢得邻居的信赖)承上启下，故选G项。

37．选F　第二段介绍和邻居关系融洽的其中一个最重要的事情是保持干净整洁的户内户外环境。该空前面的neat, clean, and in good repair以及空后面的in great shape都与F项中的fresh and inviting相对应，故选F项。

38．选E　第三段主要是建议要重视社区的整体面貌。空前提到，散步时随身带个小垃圾袋；空后提到，这个小小的举动会让你的邻居知道你关心这个区域。E项(如果你碰到从路过的车里扔出的废纸，把它捡起来)承上启下，故选E项。

39．选B　第四段是建议用邻居可以接受的方式帮助他们，同时尊重邻居的隐私。由本段中的you are there to help in any way可知，B项(一个好邻居也是一个在小的方面乐于助人的人)符合本段内容。

40．选C　最后一段是总结。只要我们考虑周到，尊重他人，照顾好属于自己的东西，为社区的整体面貌感到自豪，你很快就会成为一个大家都喜欢的好邻居。空后的respecting others, taking care of, taking pride in都是替别人着想的表现，故C项符合语境。

When I was a kid, Mom used to cook food for us.One night after   56   (spend) a long hard day at work, Mom placed a plate of bread jam and   57   (extreme) burnt toast(烤面包) in front of my dad, I was waiting   58   (see) if he noticed it.However, while eating his toast.Dad just asked me   59   my day was at school.I don't remember what I told him that night，  60   I do remember I heard Mom apologizing to Dad for burning the toast.I'll never forget what Dad said, “Honey, I love burnt toast.”

Later that night, I   61   (go) to kiss Daddy goodnight and asked him if he really liked his toast burned.He gave me   62   big hug and said, “Your mamma put in a long hard day at work today, really   63   (tire)．Besides, a burnt toast never hurts but cold words do！”

What I've learned over the years   64   (be) that learning to accept each other's faults is one of the most important   65   (key) to creating a healthy, growing and lasting relationship.

语篇解读：本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了作者的妈妈将面包烤焦了，但是爸爸不但没有怪她而且说烤焦的面包很好吃。作者从中学到学会理解，学会接受别人的错误是创造健康持久关系的最重要的因素之一。

57．extremely　修饰形容词应用副词。故填 extremely。

58．to see　此处用动词不定式作目的状语。故填 to see。

59．how　分析句子结构可知，宾语从句中缺少表示方式的连接副词。故填 how。

60．but　“我不记得那天晚上我告诉他什么了”和“我的确记得……”之间存在转折关系。故填 but。

61．went　根据后面的and asked him可知，空处也应该用一般过去时，故填 went。

62．a　此处表示泛指，且big的首字母发音为辅音音素。故填 a。

第二节(满分25 分)

阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。

Michelle was 8 years old when she heard her mom and dad talking about her littlebrother Jack, now, only an infant (婴儿)．He was very sick and they were completely out of money.Only a very costly operation could save Jack now, but there was no one to whom they could turn for the money needed.She heard her daddy say to her tearful mom, “Only a miracle can save him now.”

Hearing the words, Michelle went to her bedroom and took all the coins from her little money box.After counting the coins three times, she slipped out the back door and made her way to the drug store 6 blocks away  ...

She waited for a long time before the pharmacist (药剂师) turned around and asked her, “And what do you want？”

“Well, it's about my brother，” Michelle answered, “he's really really sick.And I want to buy a miracle.”

“I beg your pardon？” said the pharmacist.

“His name is Jack.And he has something very bad growing inside his body.And my daddy says only a miracle can save him now.So how much does a miracle cost？”

“We don't sell miracles here, little girl.I am sorry.But I can't help you，” the pharmacist said.

“Listen, I have the money to pay for it.” With these words, Michelle poured out all the coins from her pocket.

At this time, a well­dressed man behind Michelle stooped down and asked the little girl, “I am selling the miracle you want.Tell me how much money you have.”

“One dollar and eleven cents.” Michelle answered in a low voice, “That's all the money I have.But I can get some more if I need to.”

“Well，” smiled the man, “a dollar and eleven cents.The exact price of a miracle for your little brother.Show me the place where your brother lives.”

注意：1.续写词数应为150左右；

2.按如下格式作答。

Holding the man's hand firmly.Michelle took him home.　                           

When asked why he chose to help the family, the man detailed，　                     

参考范文：

Holding the man's hand firmly.Michelle took him home.The little girl walked in such a hurry that she even forgot to introduce herself to the man.Her parents were too surprised to believe their eyes.That well­dressed man turned out to be a surgeon, specializing in neural surgery.Later, the little brother was taken away.The operation was completed with payment of one dollar and eleven cents.And it wasn't long before Jack was home again and doing well.Michelle was more than happy.Now she knew the exact price of a miracle：one dollar and eleven cents, plus the faith of a little child.

When asked why he chose to help the family, the man detailed, “When I was young myself, I was once in the same situation as the little baby.The little girl reminded me of my own sister.It was she who saved my life.Deeply impressed by her innocence, I was determined to help the family out of trouble.It doesn't matter how much money she actually had with her, what matters is her faith, a faith that miracles do exist.
