Hobbs was an orphan. He worked in a factory and every day he got a little money. Hard work made him thin and weak. He wanted to borrow a lot of money to learn to paint pictures, but he did not think he could pay off the debts.
One day a lawyer said to him, “One thousand dollars,and here is the money.” As Hobbs took the package of notes, he was very dumbfounded. He didn't know where the money came from and how to spend it. He said to himself, “I could go to find a hotel and live like a rich man for a few days;or I give up my work in the factory and do what I'd like to do: painting pictures. I could do that for a few weeks, but what would I do after that? I should have lost my place in the factory and have no money to live on. If it were a little less money, I would buy a new coat,or a radio,or give a dinner to my friends. If it were more, I could give up the work and pay for painting pictures. But it's too much for one and too little for the other.”
“Here is the reading of your uncle's will,” said the lawyer, “telling what is to be done with this money after his death. I must ask you to remember one point. Your uncle has said you must bring me a paper showing exactly what you did with his money,as soon as you have spent it.”
“Yes I see. I'll do that,”said the young man.

B
We all know what it is like to be unable to turn your head because of a cold in the muscles of your neck,or because an unexpected twist(扭曲) has made your neck ache.The slightest move makes you jump with pain.Nothing could be worse than a pain in the neck.
That is why we use the phrase to describe some people who give you the same feeling.We have all met such people.
One is the man who always seems to be clapping his hands—often at the wrong time—during a performance in the theater.He keeps you from hearing the actors.
Even worse are those who can never arrive before the curtain goes up and the play begins.They come hurrying down to your row of seats.You are comfortably settled down,with your hat and heavy coat in your lap.You must stand up to let them pass.You are proud of yourself-control after they have settled into their seats...Well,what now...God,one of them is up again. He forgot to go to the men's room,and once more you have to stand up,hanging on to your hat and coat to let him pass.Now that is “a pain in the neck”.
Another,well-known to us all,is the person sitting behind you in the movies.His mouth is full of popcorn(爆米花);he is chewing loudly,or talking between bites to friends next to him. None of them remain still.Up and down,back and forth,they go—for another bag of popcorn,or something to drink.
Then,there is the man sitting next to you at lunch,smoking. He wants you to enjoy it too,and blows smoke across your food into your mouth.
We must not forget the man who comes into a bus on subway and sits down next to you,just as close as you will let him.You are reading the newspaper and he gets closer so that he can read the paper with you.He may even turn the paper to the next page before you are ready for it.
We also call such a person a “rubber_neck”,always getting close to where it does not belong,like neighbors who watch all your visitors.They enjoy learning about your personal business.People have a strong dislike for “rubber necks”.They hate being watched secretly.
40.Where can you find this passage?
A.In a medicine dictionary.
B.In a kids' story book.
C.In a social science book.
D.In a science textbook.
41.According to the passage,how do you feel when late comers walk back and forth in front of you in a cinema?
A.disturbed. B.bored.
C.ignored. D.relaxed.
42.A “rubber neck” often________.
A.says bad words behind people.
B.quarrels face to face with neighbors.
C.bargains with salespeople over the price
D.asks about other people's business
43.What is the main purpose of the author?
A.To tell people what might be bad manners in public.
B.To criticize(批评) the people who might be a “pain in the neck”.
C.To show anger to those who are described as a “pain in the neck”.
D.To tell people how to stop the pain in the neck.
C
·Ms Tan, you've referred to your new novel as your eighth book.
That's because it took me six or seven attempts at a second novel before I started and completed this one.
·Why do you think you had so many false starts?
I would say that my reasons were wrong: I was trying to prove that I wasn't just a mother-daughter storyteller,or I was trying to prove that I didn't just have to write about things that were strictly Chinese or Chinese-American. Those were never the right reasons for writing those early stories. And I could never come up with other better reasons for continuing them.
·What kept you going on this book?
This book was different because it was based on my mother's real life. The reason for writing it became more personal and emotional. After The Joy Luck Club came out,my mother was always explaining to people that she wasn't any of the mothers in that book. And at one point she said to me, “Next book tells my true story.” And then she started telling me things I never knew before. She also told me many,many stories, because my mother doesn't generalize. The book really grew out of that.
·Have you ever visited China?
Yes. I've been there twice: about three years ago and then again last November, both times with my mother and my husband.
·Was it difficult to capture the Chinese-American dialect without sounding like a parody(拙劣的模仿)?
No, because it's the language I've heard all my life from my mother. She speaks English as it's direct translation from Chinese. But it's more than that: Her language also has more imagery than English.
·Can you think of an example?
Somebody might say to me,“Don't work so hard. You'll kill yourself.” My mother will say to me, “Why do you press all your brains out on this page for someone else?” So it's very vivid. That's the way she talks.
·Have many readers told you that the Chinese mother in your book reminded them of the typical Jewish mother?
Many people have told me that. I think the mother-daughter relationship is very intense in both cases. Culturally there is an acceptance that mothers have the power to tell their children,especially their daughters,how to conduct their lives—not simply up until the time they are 18, but for the rest of their lives. However, when children grow up in a different culture from their parents', they tend to keep more secrets from their parents. The children think, “They just wouldn't understand that I had to do this.” And that can really create a gap, and it can grow as the number of secrets grows.
44.Based on the questions in this interview,what do you think Ms Tan's profession is?
A.A journalist. B.A storywriter.
C.An interviewer. D.An interviewee.
45.Which question is NOT answered in the interview?
A.How does she think of her mother's language?
B.How many books does she plan to write?
C.When did she visit China?
D.How is generation gap created?
46.We can infer that________.
A.Tan's mother is a good storyteller
B.Tan plans to write another book about her mother
C.Tan plans to return to China
D.Tan's mother is hard to communicate with because of personality
47.The last paragraph mainly talks about________.
A.how to keep secrets from parents
B.how to deal with the mother-daughter relationship
C.how to conduct the lives
D.how the generation gap comes about
D
“I sometimes get up at three or four in the morning and surf the net.”
“I often check my e-mail forty times a day.”
“I often spend more than three hours during one time on the net.”
“I spend more time in chat rooms than with my ‘real-life’ friends.”
Do you know any people like these?They are part of a new addiction(瘾) called Internet addiction.Internet addicts spend at least thirty to forty hours online every week.The use of the Internet can be an addiction like drug(毒品) use.People lose control of the time they spend on the Internet.
For example,one college student was missing for several days.His friends were worried,and they called the police.The police found the student in the computer lab:he was surfing the net for several days straight.
Studies show that about 6 to 10% of Internet users become addicted.And people worry about the teens because the Internet is changing the playing field for some of them.They spend more time in cyberspace than in the real world of friends and family.
Is “surfing the net” a hobby or an addiction for you?You may have a problem if you have these symptoms(症状):
?You do not go to important family activities or you do not do school work because you like to spend hours on the Internet.
?You can't wait for your next online time.
?You plan to spend a short time online,but then you spend several hours.
?You go out with your friends less and less.
48.What does the beginning of the passage tell us?
A.How to become an Internet addict.
B.What an Internet addict usually does.
C.Where to find an Internet addict.
D.Why to write this passage.
49.How does the writer describe the addicts' use of Internet?
A.It is something like keeping drugs.
B.It is a way of producing drugs.
C.It is like taking drugs.
D.It is terrible to imagine.
50.Why do people worry about the teens?
A.The teens are wasting too much money.
B.They used to work on the Internet.
C.The playing field of the teens will disappear.
D.More and more of the teens will become addicted to the Internet.
Ⅳ.阅读填句(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)
Dear Boris,
51
After I had spent a week with my English family, I slowly began to understand their English a little better. 52 Students in my group are from different cities of Britain and their dialects are different too! Some of their accents are quite strong and they also have their own words and expressions.
53 Before I came to England I had thought that fish and chips were eaten every day.That's quite wrong! I get rather annoyed now when I hear all the foolish words about typical English food.
I had expected to see “London fog”. Do you remember our texts about it? We had no idea that most of this “thick fog” disappeared many years ago when people stopped using coal in their homes. But the idea to speak about weather was very helpful. 54 On the other hand, habits are different. People tell me what is typical British here in London is not always typical in Wales or Scotland. 55
But what is ordinary for all British is that they follow traditions(传统). Probably Britain has more living signs of its past than many other countries. And people have always been proud of having ancient(古老的) buildings in capitals, big cities and the countryside.
I will tell you more about Britain in my other letters.
Love from Britain.
A.The weather in London is really changeable.
B.I have difficulty in understanding my classmates.
C.Thanks for your nice letter.
D.The family I live with are friendly.
E.It's very different from what I learned at school.
F.Local habits and traditions are not the same as what we knew.
G.But it's not the language that's different and surprising.

47.D 主旨大意题。此段大意是:传统地认为母亲有教育孩子们一生如何生活的权力,而孩子们随着年龄的增长,他们不愿将自己的秘密告诉父母,从而产生了代沟。因此本段主要阐述的是代沟是如何产生的。
48.B 推理判断题。由第五行Do you know any people like these?They are part of a new addiction(瘾) called可以推出答案,故选B。
49.C 细节理解题。由第八行The use of the Internet can be an addiction like drug(毒品) use.可以知道答案,所以选C。
50.D 推理判断题。由Studies show that about 6 to 10% of Internet users become addicted.可以推出答案,所以选D。

13.A catch表示“抓住”;take表示“带走”;hold表示“握住,把持住”;bring表示“带来”。由句意可知Darnay回到巴黎后,被革命者抓住了。
14.C other应修饰名词的复数形式;the other修饰名词的单复数形式均可,但表示两者或两部分中的另一个或另一部分;another意为“另一个”,修饰名词单数,指多个中的另一个;others后不能再接名词。因此答案为C项。

Mark Twain left school when he was twelve. He had little school education. In spite of this, he became the most famous writer of his time. He made millions of dollars by writing. His real name was Samuel Langhorne Clemens, but he is better known all over the world as Mark Twain,his pen name.
Mark Twain was born in 1835 and he was not a healthy baby. In fact, he was not expected to live through the first winter. But with his mother's tender care, he managed to survive. As a boy, he caused much trouble for his parents. He used to play jokes on all of his friends and neighbours. He didn't like to go to school, and he constantly ran away from home. He always went in the direction of the nearby Mississippi(密西西比河). He was nearly drowned nine times.
After his father's death in 1847, Mark Twain began to work for a printer, who only provided him with food and clothing. Then,he worked as a printer,a river-boat pilot(领航员) and later joined the army. But shortly after that he became a miner. During this period, he started to write short stories. Afterwards he became a full-time writer.
In 1870, Mark Twain got married. In the years that followed he wrote many books including Tom Sawyer in 1876, and Huckleberry Finn in 1884, which made him famous, and brought him a great fortune.
Unfortunately, Mark Twain got into debts in bad investments(投资) and he had to write large numbers of stories to pay these debts. In 1904, his wife died, and then three of their children passed away.
At the age of 70, his hair was completely white. He bought many white suits and neckties(领带). He wore nothing but white from head to foot until his death on April 21,1910.

(2013·陕西高考)In 1978, I was 18 and was working as a nurse in a small town about 270 km away from Sydney, Australia. I was looking forward to having five days off from duty. Unfortunately,the only one train a day back to my home in Sydney had already left. So I thought I'd hitch a ride(搭便车).
I waited by the side of the highway for three hours but no one stopped for me. Finally,a man walked over and introduced himself as Gordon. He said that although he couldn't give me a lift,I should come back to his house for lunch. He noticed me standing for hours in the November heat and thought I must be hungry. I was doubtful as a young girl but he assured(使……放心) me I was safe,and he also offered to help me find a lift home afterwards. When we arrived at his house, he made us sandwiches. After lunch,he helped me find a lift home.
Twenty-five years later, in 2003, while I was driving to a nearby town one day, I saw an elderly man standing in the glaring heat, trying to hitch a ride. I thought it was another chance to repay someone for the favour I'd been given decades earlier. I pulled over and picked him up. I made him comfortable on the back seat and offered him some water.
After a few moments of small talk, the man said to me,“You haven't changed a bit, even your red hair is still the same.”
I couldn't remember where I'd met him. He then told me he was the man who had given me lunch and helped me find a lift all those years ago. It was Gordon.
