When I was 14, two years before I was old enough to get a driver's license, I saw an advertisement (广告) for a 1969 Honda CL90 motorbike. My mother was strict, and I knew if I asked, she would say no. I just had to do it. I sold my 10 speed bike, added that to the money I had made doing yard work, and bought the Honda for $100 in Seaside, California, near where I grew up.
I kept the motorbike hidden from my parents. If the bike broke, I had to know how to fix it on my own. That 90cc Honda engine was as simple as an engine could be, and I learned what goes on inside it.
I was always tall for my age, so even at 14, the motorbike was small for me. I was like a trained circus( 马戏团) bear on it. The motorbike only went 38 miles per hour, but I found that, if I changed the front sprocket(链轮), I could get it to 46.
I would throw my leg over that thing and just ride, and I also learned how the world went around. That motorbike brought everything for me.
The motorbike is important for another reason. Long before Honda cars appeared in the U.S., Honda motorbikes were everywhere. These motorbikes introduced the Honda brand ( 品牌) to America. I have talked to so many people who said the Honda CL90 was the first motorbike they owned.
Years later, I have a collection of classic (经典的) motorbikes and cars, and a job I love that is related to lots of classic motorbikes and cars. A little motorbike was the push behind all of that.
24．The author got his first Honda after ．
A．he had saved $100 B．he got his driver's license
C．his parents sold his old bike D．his mother agreed to buy one for him
25．What does the author think of his first Honda
A．It was very quick. B．It was too expensive.
C．It was very easy for him to ride. D．It was hard to repair on his own.
26．What is so special about the Honda CL90
A．Its size is perfect for a 14 year old. B．It was the first motorbike Honda made.
C．Its engine is simpler than other motorbikes' engines. D．It was the first motorbike that many Americans owned.
27．Why does the author write this text
A．To introduce Honda motorbikes. B．To talk about his favorite hobby.
C．To show his first Honda means a lot to him. D．To explain why he is skilled in riding motorbikes.
C
Are you so sure your mistakes are just mistakes Or could they be building blocks to a success beyond any you imagined
When my friend Dorothy goes home to visit her family each Thanksgiving, her mother serves the traditional “mistake salad”. The dish was born many years ago. Dorothy explains, when mother was using a cookbook to make a salad. In the process, mother accidentally included half the salad ingredients (原料) from a recipe (食谱) on the left side of the open cookbook, and half the ingredients from a different salad recipe on the opposite page. Everyone enjoyed the salad so much that she continue to serve it every year. So it was really not a mistake at all.
Then there was the fellow named Alfred, who invented dynamite (炸药). When Alfred’s brother died, the city newspaper confused the two and printed an abituary (讣告) saying that the dead’s most notable act was the creation of bombs. Surprised to consider that his name would forever be connected with destruction, Alfred sought to leave a more positive fame to humanity. So he set a prize for people who contributed to world peace. Now the Nobel Prize, established by Alfred Nobel, is the most respected award in the world.
Everything is part of something bigger, and mistakes are no exception. In his brilliant book Illusions, Richard Bach explains that every problem comes to you with a gift. If you focus only on what went wrong, you miss the gift. If you are willing to look deeper and ask for the bright, the problem will disappear. You are left only with the learning, and you go forward on your path.
28．What does the underlined word “it” in the second paragraph refer to
A．the cookbook
B．the “mistake salad”
C．the recipe
D．the ingredient
29．Why did Alfred Nobel set an award for those who made great contributions to the world peace
A．Because his brother was dead in an explosion
B．Because he wanted people to connect him with peace
C．Because he wanted to make the world a better place
D．Because he wanted to show off his fortune
30．What should we do when we make a mistake according to the passage
A．We should correct the mistake as soon as possible
B．We should find out what causes the mistake and fix it timely
C．We should look deeper and find something better from it
D．We should find the solutions from the book called Illusions
31．Who will most probably like to read this passage
A．A cook who is good at making salad
B．A person who wants to have a reputation
C．A student who is afraid of making mistakes
D．A writer who is a good friend of Richard Bach
D
Now scientists in Lausanne, Switzerland have given three paralyzed men the ability to walk again. Each of the three men had damaged their spinal cords (脊髓) in motorcycle accidents and couldn’t move their legs.
To help them walk again, the men had surgery. A paddle shaped device was placed directly on the lower part of their spinal cord, below their injury. This implant (植入物) contained sixteen electrodes—conductors that electricity can pass through. The researchers made sure the electrodes on the implant were lined up with the spinal cord nerves that control the leg muscles (肌肉). To begin with, the scientists controlled the implants from a tablet computer. Just hours after the implants were first used, all three men were taking steps,with support.
In the past, scientists had some success with similar implants in the lower spine. Some patients have even trained themselves over months to be able to walk. This research is different. The patients’ brains aren’t sending “walking” messages to their legs. Instead, the tablet tells the implant to send the walking messages as a set of electrical signals.
The researchers used computers to create patterns of movement—like taking a step—that would work well with each patient. The patient then uses the tablet to choose the pattern they want. That triggers the implant, and the muscles move in the chosen way. Over time, the men were able to walk entirely on their own, using a special walker with buttons to excite each leg. One of the men has walked for half a kilometer on his own with the walker.
The method is very expensive and it requires difficult surgery. The patients can’t walk without the AI system. But it is a vital step to improve people’s quality of life. The scientists hope that in the future they will engineer personalized spinal cord implants to allow many paralyzed people to walk again in just hours.
32．What is Paragraph 2 mainly about
A．How spinal cord nerves worked.
B．Why an operation was performed.
C．How the implants let the men walk.
D．Why electrodes were precisely arranged.
33．How does the author compare the new research with the previous ones
A．By telling their differences.
B．By stating the study process.
C．By explaining their similarities.
D．By analyzing the study purpose.
34．What does the underlined word “triggers” in Paragraph 4 refer to
A．Changes. B．Activates. C．Improves. D．Shakes.
35．What is the author’s attitude towards the method
A．Objective. B．Tolerant. C．Content. D．Doubtful.

67．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。
It was 1st January, the first day of the year and a holiday for me. What luck! I decided to withdraw some money from the bank. The bank person, an elderly gentleman with a white beard, replied indifferently as usual to my polite “Happy New Year”. He nodded and I sat in front of him.
Minutes passed but he didn’t raise his head.
Then very hesitantly I put my form and booklet in front of him. He was busy filling up entries in his register. After a few minutes he took my form and from his cabinet he took out a very thick file, from which he started filling in my details, I sat there wondering why we had computerized banking if we were still filling in forms and registers.
After waiting for a few more minutes, in which I showed all signs of being impatient, I asked him if my work was done. The moment I said the words, I felt as if a bomb had fallen on him. He shouted, “Nothing is done; it will take time!”
Just then I saw his morning cup of tea which had been lying there for the last ten minutes, untouched. The tea had turned almost cold while he was doing his work. Suddenly I felt what this man, who had been working at this counter for the last God-knows-how-many years, must be feeling when customers like me come who are always in a hurry to get their work done. We do not even feel the need to thank them for being there. He must be feeling so anxious that “Here comes another person who will push me for doing his work first.”
注意：1.续写词数应为150左右；
2.请按如下格式作答。
Thinking of this, I told him, “Sir, you please have your tea. I am not in a hurry.”
______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
What he said really touched my heart.

Hello, my name is John Williams. I am an English teacher. And I have started a website to help you improve English listening and speaking skills as quickly as possible. My online English lessons take just five to ten minutes each day to complete. And there are no advertisements to take your attention away. You can also download the sound files to your computer and do exercises with them and take your lessons again any time. I have designed the online English course to be a very easy, cheap and quick way to improve your English speaking, listening and conversation skills, and also to improve your listening scores in English exams. Every day, you’ll learn some new English vocabulary, idioms and phrasal verbs, and you’ll feel more confident in working and making friends in English. My idea of learning English is that it is best or you to learn a little each day and remember it clearly. This idea doesn’t mean a new method but instead it is a concept I hope you can accept. Whether you are taking other English classes or not, and no matter what method you use, I can help you to achieve your English learning goals.

26．细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“I have talked to so many people who said the Honda CL90 was the first motorbike they owned(我和很多人谈过，他们说本田CL90是他们拥有的第一辆摩托车)”可知，本田CL90的特别之处在于它是许多美国人拥有的第一辆摩托车。故选D。

A little motorbike was the push behind all of that(几年后，我收集了很多经典的摩托车和汽车，还有一份我喜欢的和很多经典摩托车和汽车相关的工作。一辆小型摩托车推动了这一切)”可知，作者写这篇文章是为了表明他的第一辆本田对他来说意义重大，故选C。

28．词句猜测题。根据画线句上文“In the process, mother accidentally included half the salad ingredients (原料) from a recipe (食谱) on the left side of the open cookbook, and half the ingredients from a different salad recipe on the opposite page. Everyone enjoyed the salad so much that she continue to serve it every year.(在这个过程中，妈妈不小心把菜谱上的一半沙拉食材放在了打开的食谱的左边，而把另一份沙拉食材的一半放在了另一页。每个人都非常喜欢这道沙拉，所以她每年都会继续提供这道沙拉)”可知，此处it指代上文提到的“错误的沙拉”。故选B。
29．推理判断题。根据第三段的“Surprised to consider that his name would forever be connected with destruction, Alfred sought to leave a more positive fame to humanity. So he set a prize for people who contributed to world peace.(想到自己的名字将永远与毁灭联系在一起，阿尔弗雷德感到惊讶，他试图给人类留下更积极的名声。所以他设立了一个奖项给那些为世界和平做出贡献的人)”可知，他设置奖项是想让人们把他与和平联系起来。故选B。
30．细节理解题。根据最后一段“If you are willing to look deeper and ask for the bright, the problem will disappear.(如果你愿意往深处看，向光明寻求，问题就会消失)”可知，当我们犯错误时，我们应该更深入地研究，从中找到更好的东西。故选C。
31．推理判断题。根据文章第一段“Are you so sure your mistakes are just mistakes Or could they be building blocks to a success beyond any you imagined (你确定你的错误只是错误吗？或者它们会是你成功的基石吗？)”和最后一段的“If you are willing to look deeper and ask for the bright, the problem will disappear. You are left only with the learning, and you go forward on your path.(如果你愿意往深处看，向光明寻求，问题就会消失。你只剩下学习，你在你的道路上前进)”可知，文章讲述你犯的错误有时候可以为成功舔砖加瓦，面对错误，我们理应深入了解，看到光明的一面，继续向前。因此推断，害怕犯错误的学生很可能喜欢读这篇文章。故选C。

32．主旨大意题。根据文章第二段“A paddle shaped device was placed directly on the lower part of their spinal cord, below their injury. This implant contained sixteen electrodes—conductors that electricity can pass through. The researchers made sure the electrodes on the implant were lined up with the spinal cord nerves that control the leg muscles. To begin with, the scientists controlled the implants from a tablet computer. Just hours after the implants were first used, all three men were taking steps,with support.”（一个桨状的装置被直接放置在受伤部位下方的脊髓下部。这种植入物包含16个电极——电可以通过的导体。研究人员确保植入物上的电极与控制腿部肌肉的脊髓神经对齐。 首先，科学家们通过平板电脑控制植入物。植入物首次使用几小时后，这三名男子就在支持下采取了措施。）可知，第二段主要介绍了植入物是如何使得患者走动的。故选C项。
33．推理判断题。根据第三段“In the past, scientists had some success with similar implants in the lower spine.”（过去，科学家曾成功地在脊柱下部植入类似的植入物。）及“This research is different. The patients’ brains aren’t sending “walking” messages to their legs. Instead, the tablet tells the implant to send the walking messages as a set of electrical signals.”（这项研究是不同的。 患者的大脑并没有向腿部发送“行走”的信息。 相反，平板电脑会让植入体以一组电子信号的形式发送行走信息。）可知，作者通过说明新研究和以前的研究的不同来相互比较。故选A项。
34．词义猜测题。根据文章第二段“To begin with, the scientists controlled the implants from a tablet computer.”（首先，科学家们通过平板电脑控制植入物。）并结合根据划线词前文“The patient then uses the tablet to choose the pattern they want.”（然后患者使用平板电脑选择他们想要的图案。）及后文“and the muscles move in the chosen way”（肌肉以选择的方式运动）可知，患者使用电脑来选择他们想要的活动模式，做选择时“激活”了植入物。trigger与activate同义。故选B项。
35． 推理判断题。根据最后一段“The method is very expensive and it requires difficult surgery. The patients can’t walk without the AI system. But it is a vital step to improve people’s quality of life.”（这种方法非常昂贵，而且需要进行困难的手术。没有人工智能系统，病人就无法行走。 但这是提高人们生活质量的重要一步。）可知，作者指出了这种方法的不足之处，同时肯定它是提高人们生活质量的关键一步。由此推知，作者的态度是“客观的”。故选A项。

39．根据第4题所在段落的小标题Find creative ways to store your stuff.（创造性地储存你的东西。）以及空前的Make full use of the built-in shelves and storing capacities in the kitchen and bathroom.（充分利用厨房和浴室内的嵌入式架子和储存空间。）可知，本段主要讲要合理收纳个人的物品，故C选项（把不常用的物品放在床下的盒子里。）和标题内容相关，故选C。
40．根据第5空后段落的内容可知，每周清理的时候，把旧的和不用的东西扔掉，减少不必要的电器，只保留重要的东西。可能为你增加了额外的空间，B选项（移除不整洁和不必要的电器。）能够概括本段的主要内容，故选B。

Dear Tom,
I am glad to hear that you have great interest in Chinese painting. I’m writing to share some tips on learning it.
Chinese painting, an important part of our traditional art, is about how to express your understandings of beauty with brushes and ink. I strongly recommend that you should read the books about Chinese painting on the book list attached to my letter, through which you’ll get a glimpse of this unique art. Additionally, it is a wise choice to attend some optional courses during your stay in our school. Thus you will surely acquire some basic painting techniques.
Sincerely hope my suggestions will be helpful to you. Wish you have a good time while staying in China.
Yours,
Li Hua

Thinking of this, I told him, “Sir, you please have your tea. I am not in a hurry.” This gentleman, who had worked in the bank for so many years, suddenly looked up at me and for the first time we had eye contact-he had never made eye contact earlier. I saw a different person there. He gave me a rare smile and said, “It is an everyday affair with me; you are not in a hurry but somebody else will come who will be in a hurry.”
What he said really touched my heart. I felt that all this time I thought of him as a robot, someone who was there for my convenience, but today I suddenly felt a strange bond with him. I promised to be more friendly with people who help me with my work and be thankful that they are there for me. In our life, we need to put ourselves in other people’s shoes to imagine their thoughts. In this way, we can understand others better.

When I was 14, two years before I was old enough to get a driver's license, I saw an advertisement (广告) for a 1969 Honda CL90 motorbike. My mother was strict, and I knew if I asked, she would say no. I just had to do it. I sold my 10 speed bike, added that to the money I had made doing yard work, and bought the Honda for $100 in Seaside, California, near where I grew up.
I kept the motorbike hidden from my parents. If the bike broke, I had to know how to fix it on my own. That 90cc Honda engine was as simple as an engine could be, and I learned what goes on inside it.
I was always tall for my age, so even at 14, the motorbike was small for me. I was like a trained circus( 马戏团) bear on it. The motorbike only went 38 miles per hour, but I found that, if I changed the front sprocket(链轮), I could get it to 46.
I would throw my leg over that thing and just ride, and I also learned how the world went around. That motorbike brought everything for me.
The motorbike is important for another reason. Long before Honda cars appeared in the U.S., Honda motorbikes were everywhere. These motorbikes introduced the Honda brand ( 品牌) to America. I have talked to so many people who said the Honda CL90 was the first motorbike they owned.
Years later, I have a collection of classic (经典的) motorbikes and cars, and a job I love that is related to lots of classic motorbikes and cars. A little motorbike was the push behind all of that.

Are you so sure your mistakes are just mistakes Or could they be building blocks to a success beyond any you imagined
When my friend Dorothy goes home to visit her family each Thanksgiving, her mother serves the traditional “mistake salad”. The dish was born many years ago. Dorothy explains, when mother was using a cookbook to make a salad. In the process, mother accidentally included half the salad ingredients (原料) from a recipe (食谱) on the left side of the open cookbook, and half the ingredients from a different salad recipe on the opposite page. Everyone enjoyed the salad so much that she continue to serve it every year. So it was really not a mistake at all.
Then there was the fellow named Alfred, who invented dynamite (炸药). When Alfred’s brother died, the city newspaper confused the two and printed an abituary (讣告) saying that the dead’s most notable act was the creation of bombs. Surprised to consider that his name would forever be connected with destruction, Alfred sought to leave a more positive fame to humanity. So he set a prize for people who contributed to world peace. Now the Nobel Prize, established by Alfred Nobel, is the most respected award in the world.
Everything is part of something bigger, and mistakes are no exception. In his brilliant book Illusions, Richard Bach explains that every problem comes to you with a gift. If you focus only on what went wrong, you miss the gift. If you are willing to look deeper and ask for the bright, the problem will disappear. You are left only with the learning, and you go forward on your path.
28．What does the underlined word “it” in the second paragraph refer to
A．the cookbook
B．the “mistake salad”
C．the recipe
D．the ingredient
29．Why did Alfred Nobel set an award for those who made great contributions to the world peace
A．Because his brother was dead in an explosion
B．Because he wanted people to connect him with peace
C．Because he wanted to make the world a better place
D．Because he wanted to show off his fortune
30．What should we do when we make a mistake according to the passage
A．We should correct the mistake as soon as possible
B．We should find out what causes the mistake and fix it timely
C．We should look deeper and find something better from it
D．We should find the solutions from the book called Illusions
31．Who will most probably like to read this passage
A．A cook who is good at making salad
B．A person who wants to have a reputation
C．A student who is afraid of making mistakes
D．A writer who is a good friend of Richard Bach

Now scientists in Lausanne, Switzerland have given three paralyzed men the ability to walk again. Each of the three men had damaged their spinal cords (脊髓) in motorcycle accidents and couldn’t move their legs.
To help them walk again, the men had surgery. A paddle shaped device was placed directly on the lower part of their spinal cord, below their injury. This implant (植入物) contained sixteen electrodes—conductors that electricity can pass through. The researchers made sure the electrodes on the implant were lined up with the spinal cord nerves that control the leg muscles (肌肉). To begin with, the scientists controlled the implants from a tablet computer. Just hours after the implants were first used, all three men were taking steps,with support.
In the past, scientists had some success with similar implants in the lower spine. Some patients have even trained themselves over months to be able to walk. This research is different. The patients’ brains aren’t sending “walking” messages to their legs. Instead, the tablet tells the implant to send the walking messages as a set of electrical signals.
The researchers used computers to create patterns of movement—like taking a step—that would work well with each patient. The patient then uses the tablet to choose the pattern they want. That triggers the implant, and the muscles move in the chosen way. Over time, the men were able to walk entirely on their own, using a special walker with buttons to excite each leg. One of the men has walked for half a kilometer on his own with the walker.

67．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。
It was 1st January, the first day of the year and a holiday for me. What luck! I decided to withdraw some money from the bank. The bank person, an elderly gentleman with a white beard, replied indifferently as usual to my polite “Happy New Year”. He nodded and I sat in front of him.
Minutes passed but he didn’t raise his head.
Then very hesitantly I put my form and booklet in front of him. He was busy filling up entries in his register. After a few minutes he took my form and from his cabinet he took out a very thick file, from which he started filling in my details, I sat there wondering why we had computerized banking if we were still filling in forms and registers.
After waiting for a few more minutes, in which I showed all signs of being impatient, I asked him if my work was done. The moment I said the words, I felt as if a bomb had fallen on him. He shouted, “Nothing is done; it will take time!”
Just then I saw his morning cup of tea which had been lying there for the last ten minutes, untouched. The tea had turned almost cold while he was doing his work. Suddenly I felt what this man, who had been working at this counter for the last God-knows-how-many years, must be feeling when customers like me come who are always in a hurry to get their work done. We do not even feel the need to thank them for being there. He must be feeling so anxious that “Here comes another person who will push me for doing his work first.”
注意：1.续写词数应为150左右；
2.请按如下格式作答。
Thinking of this, I told him, “Sir, you please have your tea. I am not in a hurry.”

Dear Tom,
I am glad to hear that you have great interest in Chinese painting. I’m writing to share some tips on learning it.
Chinese painting, an important part of our traditional art, is about how to express your understandings of beauty with brushes and ink. I strongly recommend that you should read the books about Chinese painting on the book list attached to my letter, through which you’ll get a glimpse of this unique art. Additionally, it is a wise choice to attend some optional courses during your stay in our school. Thus you will surely acquire some basic painting techniques.
Sincerely hope my suggestions will be helpful to you. Wish you have a good time while staying in China.
Yours,
Li Hua

Thinking of this, I told him, “Sir, you please have your tea. I am not in a hurry.” This gentleman, who had worked in the bank for so many years, suddenly looked up at me and for the first time we had eye contact-he had never made eye contact earlier. I saw a different person there. He gave me a rare smile and said, “It is an everyday affair with me; you are not in a hurry but somebody else will come who will be in a hurry.”
What he said really touched my heart. I felt that all this time I thought of him as a robot, someone who was there for my convenience, but today I suddenly felt a strange bond with him. I promised to be more friendly with people who help me with my work and be thankful that they are there for me. In our life, we need to put ourselves in other people’s shoes to imagine their thoughts. In this way, we can understand others better.
