(1)when引导的时间状语从句的谓语动词可以是延续性的, 也可以是非延续性的, 既可以表示从句动作与主句动作同时发生, 也可表示从句的动作先于主句动作发生。
(2)when还可以作并列连词, 表示一个动作即将或正在进行的时候, 突然发生了另外一件事。其意义为“那时”“这时”。be about to do sth. when. . . (正要做某事这时……); be doing sth. when. . . (正在做某事这时……); had done sth. when. . . (刚做完某事这时……)。 (3)when还用于hardly/scarcely. . . when. . . (一……就……)中, 这时, when从句中常用一般过去时, 主句用过去完成时, 当hardly位于句首时, 主句用部分倒装, 通常把助动词had放在主句的前面。
*When you have finished your work, you may have a rest.
干完活后, 你可以休息一下。
*When I came home my mother was cooking dinner.
我回家时, 妈妈正在做饭。(短暂性动词) *When I lived in the countryside, I used to carry some water for him.

when还可表原因“既然, 考虑到”, 相当于“considering that, since”。例如:
How can they learn anything when they spend all their spare time watching television? 他们把所有的空闲时间都用来看电视了, 还能学什么东西呢? 2. while引导的时间状语从句。
while引导的从句谓语动词为延续性的, 表示“与……同时”“在……期间”, 强调某一时间内主句和从句的动作同时发生。

*He hasn’t been home since he graduated.
他自从毕业后就没有回过家。【名师点津】在“It is/has been. . . since. . . did. . . ”句型中, since从句的谓语动词是终止性动词时, 按照字面意思理解。
*It’s a long time since we met last.
自从我们上次见面以来已经好长时间了。
since从句谓语动词为延续性动词时, 按与字面意思相反的意思理解。
*It’s two years since I smoked.

before的本意为“在……之前”, 根据具体语境还可理解为“还没来得及/还没有……就……, 趁着还没……就……, 不知不觉就……, ……才……”等。
*I had not sat long before he came back.
我没坐多久他就回来了。
*Time passed quickly and three months went by before she knew it.
时间过得飞快, 她不知不觉就在那里度过了三个月。【名师点津】before常用于“It be+表示一段时间的词语+before引导的时间状语从句”中, 表示“才, 就”。It + was +时间段+ before从句(一般过去时); it + will be + before从句(一般现在时)。 6. till和until引导的时间状语从句。
till和until引导时间状语从句时, 主句的谓语是延续性动词, 表示“直到……为止”。放于句首时通常用until的形式, till在口语中更为常见。not. . . until引导时间状语从句时, 主句的谓语是短暂性动词, 表示“直到……才”。

→It was not until yesterday that I noticed it. 7. immediately, directly, instantly, the instant, the moment/minute/second等引导时间状语从句, 相当于as soon as, 表示“一……就……”。

尽管他上了年纪, 他依然精力充沛。

London—Having first played together as teenagers, Hsieh Su-wei and Peng Shuai won their first Grand Slam title with a 7-6(1), 6-1 victory Saturday over Australian duo Ashleigh Barty and Casey Dellacqua in the women’s doubles final at Wimbledon.
Hsieh became the first player from Taiwan to win a Grand Slam title while Peng gave the Chinese mainland its first doubles title at a major in seven years.
“It’s very special because I don’t think tennis is popular in Taiwan, ” Hsieh said. “We didn’t see many media during this tournament. We’re very proud we can win this tournament together with my good friend. It’s our first title, for Taiwan, so I think it’s a big thing in Taiwan. ”
The pair, who are both 27, played a few tournaments together as amateurs butended their partnership after turning professional. After a seven-year hiatus, Hsieh asked Peng at the 2008 US Open if she would be up for a renewed(重建的)association.
The duo reunited by the end of that year 2008 and won their first 11 matches, claiming titles in Bali and Sydney. They lost their opening-round match in the 2009 Australian Open quarter finals against Serena and Venus Williams but now have six titles together.
Both Peng and Hsieh play two-handed shots on both sides, like Marion Bartoli, who won the Wimbledon singles title on Saturday.

The green turtle is listed as endangered by the International Union for the Conservation of Nature. Under the U. S. Endangered Species Act of 1973, the green turtle was listed as threatened except for the breeding populations in Florida and on the Pacific coast of Mexico, where it is listed as endangered.
Green turtles continue to be caught for money by humans, and the destruction and loss of nesting and foraging(觅食)sites is a serious problem. Humans have already caused the decrease of large green turtle populations, including those that once nested in Bermuda and Cayman Islands. The status(状况)of green turtle populations is difficult to determine because of our lack of knowledge about their life cycles. The number of nests in Florida appears to be increasing, but we don’t know whether this is due to an increase in the number of nests or because we have started to monitor nesting beaches more closely.
The green sea turtle is the largest hard-shelled sea turtle. Adults of this species commonly reach 100 cm in length and 150 kg in mass. The average size of a female nesting in Florida is 101. 5 cm straight in length, with an average body mass of 136 kg.
Growth rates of green turtles have not been measured under natural conditions. Green turtles grow slowly.
In the southern Bahamas, green turtles grow from 30 to 75 cm in 17 years, and according to Bjorndal and Bolten, growth rate decreased with increasing length. Growth rates measured in green turtles from Florida and Puerto Rico fall within the range of growth rates measured in the southern Bahamas. Based on growth rate studies of wild green turtles, the researchers Balazs, Frazer and Ehrhart estimate the age of sexual maturity range anywhere from 20 to 50 years.
6. The main idea of the passage is to tell us .
A. something about an endangered animal green turtles
B. how green turtles got extinct
C. how heavy a green turtle is
D. how long a green turtle can live
7. The following are reasons why green turtles are endangered EXCEPT that .
A. humans catch them to get profit
B. they lose their nests
C. they have fewer places to find food
D. people like to keep them as pets
8. According to the passage, the green turtle .
A. can reach 100 cm in length in 17 years
B. lives in the sea and grows very slowly
C. lives only in Florida and on the Pacific coast of Mexico
D. can grow from 30 to 75 cm in 17 years in southern Florida
9. Why is it hard for us to know the number of green turtles?
A. Because it is difficult for us to be close to them.
B. Because we have limited knowledge about them.
C. Because we haven’t measured their growth rates.
D. Because they grow too slowly.
10. What can we know from the passage?
A. Bjorndal and Bolten are two famous psychologists.
B. Green turtles have the same age of sexual maturity.
C. The green turtle grows more slowly after reaching a certain length.
D. Researchers have known the status of green turtle populations.

If you want to do some voluntary work, you can simply look up the organizations in the phone book and contact them directly. Alternatively(或者)you can try contacting your local authority or public library for details of groups active in your area. The local press will also often contain advertisements from organizations seeking willing helpers and in most areas there is also usually a local voluntary council(服务机构)which advertises volunteer positions. There may be dozens or even hundreds to choose from.
3.
As a volunteer you are in control of how much or how little time you can spare. As you think about volunteering, be realistic about time you can regularly devote to. Far better a weekly devotion of an hour or two which you can fit into your life than trying to offer an unrealistic amount of time which you can’t keep to. If volunteering positions are advertised, they’ll usually indicate(表明)the time devotion required to help you judge whether or not you are suitable for the role.
4.
Provided you only receive out of pocket expenses and no other payments volunteering should not affect any benefits you receive. You should inform your benefits officer about any volunteering work you undertake. You can volunteer for an unlimited amount of time each week as long as you still meet the benefits criteria(标准).
5.
A Criminal Records Bureau(CRB)check in England and Wales or Disclosure check in Scotland is usually required for any role where you’ll be working with children. You’ll be asked to fill out the form which will then be processed(处理). It is a method to ensure that you do not have any relevant criminal convictions(判罪). Check usually takes only a few weeks to process and you should normally leave nothing to worry about.

答案解析
Ⅰ. 【文章大意】本文讲的是作者与妈妈打赌一年内不看电视。这对原本喜欢看电视的“我”来说简直是不可思议的事, 不过那年“我”真的做到了, 而且也有了很大的变化, “我”由一个经常不及格的学生变成了一个优秀生, 由原来的不爱看书变得喜欢看书。
1. 【解析】选B。逻辑推理题。上文提到“我”与妈妈打赌, 根据语境可以看出妈妈对“我”戒掉看电视的习惯还有些怀疑。
2. 【解析】选A。逻辑推理题。从下文谈到报纸上的那个男孩及“我”的感受来看, “我”在回答妈妈的话时, 想极力表现出自信, 故用trying(分词短语作状语)。
3. 【解析】选D。逻辑推理题。前面说男孩与妈妈打赌, 此处通过in fact引出打赌的原因, 即与妈妈打赌实际上是由报纸上的一幅图画引起的。
4. 【解析】选C。逻辑推理题。从后面的小男孩嘲笑的眼神可推测, 报纸上的图画让“我”感到气愤。
5. 【解析】选C。逻辑推理题。上文说“我”通过读报获悉一个男孩因为一年没看电视而得到100美元的故事, 此处是对这种情况的具体展开, 由于逗号前没有连词, 故此处用过去分词, 即用said作定语, 相当于who was said to have gone one year without TV. . . 。
6.【解析】选B。词语辨析题。由上文staring at me with mocking eyes可推测, 此处填laugh才与语境保持一致。laugh at意为“嘲笑”; glare at意为“怒视”; come at意为“向……扑去”; shoot at意为“向……开枪”。
7.【解析】选B。逻辑推理题。前面说“我做到了”, 与后面的you can’t构成转折关系, 故用but。
8. 【解析】选C。词语辨析题。前面说“我”好像被那男孩嘲笑了, 心里非常生气, 故用glare才能在语意上与其保持一致, glare有“瞪, 怒目而视”之意。
9. 【解析】选C。逻辑推理题。前面说那年“我”做了很多事, 从下文的爸爸教我ski, 还有snowball wars, bike trips等来看, 此处是举例来说明, 故用for example。
10. 【解析】选C。词语辨析题。此处通过例子说明, 为摆脱看电视, “我”从事了各种各样的有趣的活动, 其中打雪仗给“我”带来了很多刺激。
11.【解析】选B。逻辑推理题。由a fish可联想到“游泳”, 故用B。
12. 【解析】选C。词语辨析题。此处是对上文内容的总结, “真没想到没有电视我可以享受那么多乐趣”, 即一年来“我”所从事的各种丰富多彩的活动给“我”带来很多乐趣。
13.【解析】选A。逻辑推理题。“我”没有看电视却学到了很多新游戏, 与后面的“我”学到最重要的东西是上进心为转折关系, 由于此空在句中且有逗号分开, 故此处应用副词though(但是), 但不能用连词but。
14. 【解析】选D。逻辑推理题。由后面的考试成绩由D到现在的A可推测, “我”现在开始做作业了。
15. 【解析】选B。逻辑推理题。由后面的but now可推测, 此处说的是“过去”的事情, 这与“现在”形成对比, 故用used to。
16. 【解析】选A。逻辑推理题。从本段来看, 此处谈论的是读书问题, 由上文可知“我”过去喜欢看电视, 若看书就看有图画的书, 没有图画就不愿看, 此处选pictures才与“我”过去的实际相吻合。
17. 【解析】选C。短语辨析题。“我”现在不愿看电视而喜欢读书, 把读到的东西构想出图画, 让它们以自己的方式在大脑里形成图画, make up意为“构想, 组成, 编造”; draw up编写, 拟定, 不合语境。
18. 【解析】选A。逻辑推理题。把读书看到的东西以自己的方式编造或构想成画面, 从而在大脑中形成自己的“小电视”, 这是一种比喻。
19. 【解析】选C。逻辑推理题。原以为不可思议的事, “我”却真的做到了, 因此说“我”对自己所做的事感到非常自豪和骄傲。
20. 【解析】选A。逻辑推理题。整整一年不看电视, 做了很多其他的事, 从而使生活更加丰富多彩, 从这样的“经历”中得到的东西远比100美元多。
Ⅱ. 1. 【解析】选A。主旨大意题。纵观全文可知本文讲的是两个中国女孩彭帅和谢淑薇获得温网双打决赛冠军, 故选A。
2. 【解析】选C。细节理解题。根据第三段第二句话可知A项正确; 根据第五段第二句话可知B项正确; 根据最后一段最后一句话. . . because they were too small to hold their rackets with one hand. . . 可知C项错误; 根据第四段第一句话可知D项正确。只有C项符合题目要求, 故选C。
3. 【解析】选B。词义猜测题。根据第四段第一句话. . . but ended their partnership after turning professional. 可知此处表示两人间隔了7年以后再次合作, 故选B。
4. 【解析】选A。推理判断题。根据最后一段最后一句话可知A项正确; 根据第二段Hsieh became the first player from Taiwan to win a Grand Slam title. . . 可知B项错误; 根据第四段第一句话. . . but ended their partnership after turning professional. 可知C、D两项错误。
5. 【解析】选D。观点态度题。根据全文可知作者写这篇文章是为了告诉我们彭帅和谢淑薇在温网锦标赛上的成功, 故选D。
【文章大意】绿海龟是一种濒临灭绝的动物, 让我们行动起来, 了解它们, 保护它们。
6. 【解析】选A。主旨大意题。文章开头就提到了绿海龟是一种濒临灭绝的动物。文章主要讲了绿海龟的生存地、生活习性和大小等。B、C、D三项只是对绿海龟某个方面的描述, 过于片面。
7. 【解析】选D。细节理解题。根据第二段的第一句话可知文章提到了绿海龟濒临灭绝的三个原因: 人类的捕获、失去巢穴和失去寻找食物的地方, 而D项文章中未提及。
8. 【解析】选B。细节理解题。根据第三段第一句话可知绿海龟生活在海洋里, 再根据第四段的“Green turtles grow slowly. ”可知绿海龟生长得很缓慢。因此正确答案为B项。
9. 【解析】选B。细节理解题。根据第二段的第三句话可知, 我们不知道绿海龟具体数量的原因是我们缺乏有关其生命周期的知识。
10. 【解析】选C。推理判断题。根据最后一段第一句中的“growth rate decreased with increasing length”可知, 绿海龟长到一定的长度后生长越来越缓慢。

自从1896年现代奥林匹克运动会开始以来, 马拉松比赛一直是奥运会的一个项目。【句式分析】
(1)since the modern games started in1896是since引导的时间状语从句;
(2)当since引导时间状语从句时, 从句用一般过去时, 主句常用现在完成时, 有时用现在完成进行时;
(3)since常用于it + is/has been +时间段+since. . . 句型。
①Since the day we met I have known he is not to be trusted.

(1)which most competitors find is the toughest course to run是which引导的非限制性定语从句, 修饰the Great Wall Marathon;
(2)在定语从句中, most competitors find后面接宾语从句, 宾语从句中缺少主语, 所以which是find后面宾语从句中的主语。

(1)because it is thought to be the hardest是because引导的原因状语从句, 从句中的主语it指代marathon;
(2)“主语(物或人)+ be + thought/known/reported/believed/said + to”相当于“it + be + thought/known/reported/believed/said + that从句”。
①It was reported that he had won the game.
=He was reported to have won the game.
据报道他赢得了比赛。
②It is thought that he is an honest man.
=He is thought to be an honest man.
人们认为他是个诚实的人。【想一想】在“主语(物或人)+be + thought/known/reported/
believed/said+动词不定式”中, 动词不定式可以用多种形式, 怎样确定动词不定式的形式? 【参考答案】
首先, 要看动词不定式的动作发生的时间。若动词不定式中的动作和谓语动作同时发生或特指正在进行, 用动词不定式的进行式, 即to be doing; 若动作发生在谓语动作之前, 用动词不定式的完成式, 即to have done; 若动词不定式中的动作发生在谓语动作之后, 用动词不定式的一般式, 即to do。例如:
He is said to be studying abroad, but I don’t know which country it is.
人们说他正在国外读书, 但我不知道是哪个国家。The miners trapped in the mine were thought to have been rescued yesterday.
人们认为被困在矿井里的矿工昨天已经被救出来了。
The book is said to come out next week.
据说这本书下周出版。
其次, 动词不定式的主动和被动形式取决于不定式中的动作与主语的关系, 若是主动关系就用动词不定式的主动形式, 反之, 则用动词不定式的被动形式。
The great dream of going to Mars is believed to come true/to be realized.
人们认为到火星上这个伟大梦想会实现的。【即学活用】一句多译。

【互动导学】
◎学生: 什么叫通知?
◎老师: 通知属于说明文, 它通常是上级对下级、组织对成员布置工作、召开会议、传达事情所使用的一种文体。通知分为口头通知和书面通知两种。
◎学生: 书面通知与口头通知有什么区别? ◎老师: 口头通知是面对面地把事情传达给对方, 一般不用落款和日期。经常有称呼语和attention, please这样的话语和结束语(如That’s all. Thank you. )等。书面通知的语言更加正式。
◎学生: 如何写书面通知呢?
◎老师: 书面通知以布告、海报的形式出现, 常常是张贴在显眼的位置, 以引起公众的注意。为了醒目, 标题的每个字母常大写。 书面通知的格式:
(1)标题: 在正文上面正中的地方写上NOTICE。
(2)正文: 包括具体的时间、地点、活动内容和注意事项。
(3)单位: 发通知的单位一般写在正文的右下角。有时也放于标题之上, 起强调作用。
(4)时间: 一般写在左下角。【典题示例】

When I was an official of a school in Palo Alto, California, Polly Tyner, the president of our board, wrote a letter that was printed in the Palo Alto Times. Polly’s son, Jim, had great difficulty in school. He was classified as the educationally handicapped and required a great deal of patience on the part of his parents and teachers. But Jim was a happy kid with a great smile that lit up the room. His parents knew his difficulties, but they always tried to help him see his strengths so that he could walk with pride. Shortly after Jim finished high school, he was killed in a motorcycle accident. After his death, his mother submitted this letter to the newspaper.
“Today we buried our 20-year-old son. He was killed in a motorcycle accident on Friday night. How I wish I had known that the last time I had talked to him would be the last time. If I had only known that, I would have said to him, ‘Jim, I love you and I’m always so proud of you. ‘I would have taken the time to count the many blessings he had brought to the lives of the people who loved him. I would have taken the time to appreciate his beautiful smile, his laughter, and his genuine love to other people.
“When I put all the good things on the scale and try to balance them with all the irritating(恼人的)things such as the radio that was always too loud, the haircut that wasn’t to our liking, the dirty socks under the bed, etc. , I find that the irritations really don’t amount to much.
“I won’t get another chance to tell my son all that I would have wanted him to hear, but, other parents, do have a chance. Tell your young people what you would want them to hear as if it may be your last conversation. The last time I talked to Jim was the morning of the day when he died. He called me to say, ‘Hi, Mom! I just called to say I love you. You have to go to work now. Bye. ‘That day, he gave me something to treasure forever. ”
If there is any purpose at all for Jim’s death, maybe it is to make others appreciate life more and to tell people, especially family members, that they should take the time to let each other know just how much they care. You may never have another chance. Do it today!

While IQ(Intelligence Quotient)tells you how smart you are, EQ(Emotional Quotient)tells you how well you use your smartness. Professor Salovery, the psychologist who created the term, EQ, says that it is IQ that gets you hired but it is EQ that gets you promoted.
Supported by his research, he suggested that when predicting future successes, a person’s brainpower, as measured by IQ tests, might actually matter less than a person’s character, or EQ. Professor Salovery may be correct. For example, have you ever wondered why some of the best and smartest students in your class end up failing exams? Perhaps it is because of their EQs. People often make the mistake of thinking that EQ is the opposite of IQ. It is not. Although it is hoped that people have both high EQs and IQs, there is little doubt that those with low EQs have a hard time surviving in life.
For a long time, researchers discussed if a person’s IQ could be raised. The geneticists said no, while the social scientists said yes. Furthermore, the social scientists said that it was possible to improve a person’s EQ, particularly in terms of “people skills”, such as understanding and communication.
Recently, a professor released the findings of a study on senior high school students. When some normal students were introduced to some disabled students, they found that afterwards they were more willing to help people in difficulties. At the same time, there was a marked change in the disabled students’ attitudes. They became more positive about their disabilities and were more eager to try new things. People with high EQs often have positive attitudes towards life and are open to different ideas, so they tend to be more creative in their thinking. Please remember that having a high IQ is helpful but having a high EQ might even be more helpful.
6. According to Professor Salovery, what factor matters the most in predicting whether a person will be successful or not?
A. How a person tests his / her brainpower.
B. A person’s character.
C. How smart a person is.
D. A person’s IQ.
7. The second paragraph tells us that .
A. people who have a high IQ always have a high EQ
B. EQ is the opposite of IQ
C. people who have a low EQ tend to have a hard life
D. people who have a high EQ always have a high IQ
8. What did the professor find from his study of normal students being introduced to some disabled children?
A. Students with disabilities were not open in trying new things.
B. There was no change in the normal students.
C. The disabled students became more positive and more eager to try new things.
D. The disabled students were more willing to help others.
9. Which of the following is the writer’s attitude toward EQ and IQ?
A. IQ is more helpful to people than EQ.
B. IQ can be raised by understanding and communication.
C. EQ can get people hired.
D. A high EQ is of great benefit in getting people promoted.
10. Which of the following would be the best title of this passage?
A. A person’s brainpower.
B. IQ, EQ and success.
C. IQ and a person’s character.
D. A person’s IQ and EQ.
C
I am a long distance runner. When I was thirty-one, I was in a serious car accident. The doctor told me that they would try to get me to walk “normally” but I would never run again—terrible news for someone who views running as the oxygen she breathes. The doctors were right. For the next nine and a half years, I was unable to run more than twenty-five feet.
In 2006, I began self-training to take part in a 60-mile walk. Three months into preparing, I realized that walking 4—5 hours a day was too long. If only I could jog part of it—that would cost me less time. I started jogging without my knees aching. Slowly, I increased the distance. The doctors were proved wrong—it only took nine and a half years to do so.
While practicing, I suffered a loss—a dear friend suddenly died. His work had been to help women to accept themselves and reach their fullest potential. He believed that people should let nothing hold them back from achieving their goals. Soon after his death, a crazy thought entered my mind: what if I could run the LA Marathon? I knew that if I didn’t train to my fullest, the doctors would win. So I trained seven days a week. And I succeeded in crossing the finish lines of many marathons all over the United States to the astonishment of my doctors. They never believed I would achieve that.
The aches and pains I experience while training and racing are nothing compared to the suffering people whom I respect must accept.
11. What can we learn about the author from Paragraph 1?
A. She loved running very much.
B. She lost heart after the accident.
C. She often felt it was hard to breathe.
D. She didn’t believe what the doctors said.
12. The author tried jogging because she wanted to .
A. protect her feet B. get more practice
C. save some time D. catch up with others
13. Why did the author decide to join in the marathon?
A. Because she wanted to make more friends.
B. Because she was so sorry for the loss of a friend.
C. Because she wanted to prove the doctors were wrong.
D. Because she was encouraged by her dead friend’s words.
14. The writer’s story tells us .
A. where there is a will, there is a way
B. a friend in need is a friend in deed
C. by falling we learn to go safely
D. a good medicine tastes bitter

Starting high school is an exciting event. 1 Try these tips to help make the transition to high school go smoothly for you and your teenager.
Talk to your teenager. Find out how your teenager feels about high school. 2 Share some of your own experiences with them, and see if you can get an older cousin or family friend to talk to them, as well.
Orientation(迎新会)is a good thing. 3 The school will also likely have a parents’ night or parents’ orientation shortly after the school year begins. Your teenager may discourage you from attending it, but it is important for you to learn what to expect during their high school years. It is also a good opportunity to meet with teachers and other parents.
4 Before school starts, talk with your teenager about what their daily schedule will be like, what classes they will be taking, and how they will manage their time. Discuss any extracurricular(课外的)activities they might like to take part in. It is important for you to know their after-school plans. Then you can set some limits on things including where they are, whom they are with, and how they will be transported.
5 High school is a time when a teenager asks for their independence. However, it is important that you remind your teenager that you are still the parent. For example, they may want to decide when to do their homework or when to go to bed, and may start spending more time on the computer or phone. While it is OK for you to loosen up on some things and let them make some of these decisions, make sure your teenager knows the limits.
A. Set a good example.
B. They likely have both fear and anxiety.
C. Don’t forget about after-school activities.
D. Give your teenager some independence.
E. There you can get some advice from other parents.
F. Make sure your teenager attends it if the high school has one.
G. However, it can also cause some stress and anxiety for both parents and teenagers.

第三部分 阅读理解(共两节, 满分40分)
第一节(共15小题; 每小题2分, 满分30分)
A
Football, to me, is more than just a game. I have probably learned more valuable lessons from it than from school.
When I joined the team freshman year, I didn’t realize what I was getting into. Even though I had been playing since fourth grade and knew it was hard work, nothing would prepare me for the effort I would put into football that year. We worked all summer in the weight room and ran on the track to get in physical and mental shape before the season.
See, football is more of a mental sport than anything else, so running on the track wasn’t only about getting in shape. We would push our minds by running as hard as we could even if we were going to pass out. At the beginning, I was immature(幼稚的)and only thought of myself, sometimes even gave up when I was tired or hurt. Then after the third game I had a season-ending injury. Imagine working all summer and then only being able to play three games! I needed surgery on my arm and at least five months to recover.
Needless to say, I missed the rest of the season, but this actually helped me realize that since you never know when your last play will be, you should try your hardest in football and life.
After freshman year I decided that I would always give my best effort. Playing varsity(大学的)football has taught me so much more than just what my assignments are on a particular play or how to block. I have learned to think about others first, and realized how important working hard is. Being with all my friends, even sweating and bleeding with them, really made us bond as a group of hard-working young men who I know will succeed in life.
56. What is the main idea of the passage?
A. How the author dislikes the game of football.
B. When the author began to play football.
C. How the author has changed his attitude to football.
D. What sport the author likes best.
57. In the third paragraph, the underlined phrase “getting in shape” probably means“ ”.
A. becoming healthy
B. designing the playground
C. losing weight
D. measuring the track
58. From the text we can infer .
A. the author joined the football team with a clear aim
B. football only brought the author certain assignments
C. the author never lost heart when he met with difficulty
D. the author worked all summer to get ready for the season
59. What did the author get from his season-ending injury?
A. A good chance on the team.
B. A good lesson about life.
C. A good relationship with his partners.
D. A good rest as he expected.
B
The word “sport” first meant something that people did in their free time. Later it often meant hunting wild animals and birds. About a hundred years ago the word was first used for organized games. This is the usual meaning of the word today. People spend a lot of their spare time playing football, basketball, tennis and many other sports. Such people play because they want to. A few people are paid for the sport they play. These people are called professional sportsmen. They may be sportsmen for only a few years, but during that time the best ones can earn a lot of money.
For example, a professional footballer in England earns more than 30, 000 pounds a year. The stars can earn a lot more. International golf and tennis champions can make more than 50, 000 pounds a year. Of course, only a few sportsmen can earn as much money as that. It is only possible in sports for individuals, like golf, tennis and motor racing. Perhaps the most surprising thing about sportsmen and money is this: the stars can earn more money from advertising than from sports. An advertisement for sports equipment doesn’t simply say, “Buy our things”. It says, “Buy the same shirt and shoes as. . . ”. Famous sportsmen can even advertise things like watches and foods. They allow the companies to use their names or photographs and they are paid for this. Sport is no longer just something for people’s spare time.
60. The passage is mainly about .
A. sportsmen and money
B. how sportsmen succeed
C. the role money plays in sports
D. how to make money
61. We can infer from the passage that .
A. most sportsmen can earn as much as 50, 000 pounds a year
B. golf players earn more money than tennis players
C. professional sportsmen are very popular among the young
D. sportsmen’s incomes are different
62. The writer thinks it is surprising that sportsmen make more money .
A. from sports than from advertising
B. from advertising than from sports
C. than the government leaders
D. than the leaders of big companies

A blog, shortened from “weblog”, is a public Internet journal written by one person or a group of people. It is a website in which a person or a group can place news, personal thoughts, text, photos, video or audio files, or links upon which visitors can comment.

Authoring a blog, maintaining a blog or adding an article to an existing blog is called “blogging”. Blogging has revolutionized Internet publishing in the last several years because it gives everyone with Internet access the opportunity to become an online writer.

All Eskimos live most of their lives close to sea or fresh water. They may follow game inland for several hundred miles, but they always return to the shores of rivers, lakes, or seas. Eskimo land has a bare look. Large rocks, pebbles, and sand cover much of the surface. Plants called lichen(地衣)grow on the rocks, and where there is enough soil, grass, flowers, and even small bushes manage to live. No trees can grow on Eskimo land, so geographers sometimes call it the Arctic plains. There are some animals in Eskimo land, such as rabbits, which eat the plants. Other animals, like the white fox and the gray wolf, eat the rabbits. The Eskimos are meat-eaters, too, and may even eat a wolf when food is scarce.
The Eskimo year has two main parts: a long, cold winter and a short, cool summer. Spring and fall are almost too short to be noticed. Summer is the best time, as food is usually plentiful. But it is also the time when Eskimos are very busy. Winter is never far away, and the men must bring home extra meat for the women to prepare and store, for seldom can enough animals be killed in winter to feed a family.
The Far North is sometimes called the land of the midnight sun. This is true in the middle of summer, for between April 21st and August 21st the sun never sets in Northern Greenland. But in midwinter the Far North is a land with no sunshine at all. Around Oct. 21st the Eskimos of Northern Greenland see the sun set directly south of them, and they don’t see it again until February 22nd. All places on earth get about the same amount of daylight during a year. As a result, if summer is lighter, winter has to be darker.
Winter nights in the Far North are seldom pitch-black. As in the rest of the world, the stars and moon provide a little light. The northern lights also help the Eskimos to see. And with the ground covered with snow, even a little light is reflected back to the Eskimos’ eyes.
67. In the Eskimo year, .
A. there is no spring and fall
B. winter is cold and summer is hot
C. summer is a time for growing food
D. winter comes early and goes late
68. What’s the meaning of the underlined word “pitch-black” in Paragraph 4?
A. Dark with a little light.
B. A little dark.
C. Not dark at all.
D. Extremely dark.
69. From the passage, we can infer all of the following EXCEPT that .
A. Eskimos are more likely to eat wolves in summer
B. Eskimo women are responsible for housework
C. meat is the main source of food for the Eskimo
D. hunting is an important part of Eskimo life
70. Why is summer lighter in the Far North?
A. Because the Far North is far away from the sun.
B. Because the sun is not seen for five months of the year.
C. Because the sun never sets in midsummer.
D. Because people see the sun set directly south of them.

根据短文内容, 从短文后的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。
In the 60s, people asked about your astrological(about star)sign. In the 90s, they want to know your website. 71 Your website is an electronic meeting place for your family, friends and potentially, millions of people around the world. Best of all, you may not have to spend a cent. The web is filled with all kinds of free services and all it takes is some time and creativity.
72 Like the table of contents of a book or magazine, the home page is the front door. Your site can have one or more pages, depending on how you design it.
While web pages vary greatly in their design and content, most use a traditional magazine layout(版面设计). At the top of the page is a banner(横幅). Next comes a greeting and a short description of the site. Pictures, text, and links to other websites follow.
73 Think about whom the site is for and what you want to say. Next, gather up the material that you want to put on the site.
While there are no rules you have to follow, there are a few things to keep in mind: 74 If you are too much at the beginning, you may never get the site off the ground. You can always add to your site.
Less is better. Most people don’t like to read a lot of long text online. 75 Smaller is better. Since it can take a long time to download large image files, keep the file sizes small.
Have the rights. Don’t put any material on your site unless you are sure you can do it legally. Always remember to get the permission from the writer first.

Most school children are taught that the first Thanksgiving was held in 1621. Let’s take a closer look at just what took place leading up to that eventthe harvest celebration of the pilgrims and the Native Americans that took place in the autumn of 1621. Although they did have a three-day feast in celebration of a good harvest, and the local natives did take part in itthis “first thanksgiving” was not a holiday, simply a gatheringThere is little evidence that this feast of thanks led directly to our modern Thanksgiving Day holidayThanksgiving can be traced back to 1863 when Lincoln became president to proclaim Thanksgiving Day. The holiday has been a fixture of late November ever since. Until today, it is an important festival in western countries. And in China there are more and more people who give their thanks to their family members and friends to celebrate the festival.
