Most of the student ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )s will go to their classmates or friends for help when in trouble.They’re almost of the same age, so they can talk with and understand each other easily.Some students will tell their teachers or parents，whom them trust，about their troubles and ask for their help as the teachers and parents have rich experience and love them very much.Only a few students solve their problems all by themselves.They hate to talk with others and can’t get on well with others.They have few friends.www-2-1-cnjy-com
In my opinio ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )n, when in trouble we’d better ask our teachers, parents, friends or classmates for help.【来源：21cnj*y.co*m】

Mother’s Day is a ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) time of memory and celebration for Mom.The earliest Mother’s Day celebrations date back to the spring celebrations of ancient Greece in honor of Rhea，the Mother of the Gods.During the 1600’s，England celebrated a day called“Mothering Sunday”．Celebrated on the 4th Sunday of Lent(四旬斋)，“Mothering Sunday” honored the mothers of England.
During this ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )time many of the England’s poor worked as servants for the wealthy.As most jobs were located far from their homes，the servants would live at the houses of their employers.On Mothering Sunday the servants would have the day off and were encouraged to return home and spend the day with their mothers.A special cake，called the mothering cake，was often brought along.21教育网
As Christiani ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ty(基督教) spread throughout Europe，the celebration changed to honor the “Mother Church”—the spiritual power that gave them life and protected them from harm.Over time the church festival combined with the Mothering Sunday celebration.People began honoring their mothers as well as the church.21·cn·jy·com
In the United St ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ates Mother’s Day was first suggested in 1872 by Julia Ward Howe as a day devoted to peace.Then in 1907 Ana Jarvis，from Philadelphia，began a campaign(运动) to establish a national Mother’s Day.Ms Jarvis persuaded her mother’s church in Grafton，West Virginia to celebrate Mother’s Day on the second anniversary of her mother’s death，the 2nd Sunday of May.By the next year Mother’s Day was also celebrated in Philadelphia.
Ms Jarvis and her ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) supporters began to write to ministers，businessmen，and politicians demanding to establish a national Mother’s Day.It was successful as by 1911 Mother’s Day was celebrated in almost every state.President Woodrow Wilson，in 1914，made the official announcement that Mother’s Day was a national holiday and it was to be held each year on the 2nd Sunday of May.【版权所有：21教育】
While many countri ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )es of the world celebrate their own Mother’s Day at different times throughout the year，there are some countries such as Denmark，Finland，Italy，Turkey，Australia，and Belgium which also celebrate Mother’s Day on the 2nd Sunday of May.

Ⅴ.阅读理解
Most people think o ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )f racing when they see greyhounds(灰狗) and believe they need lots of exercise.They can actually be quite lazy！Greyhounds are good at fast races but not long distance running.They do need regular exercise but they like to run for a short burst and then get back on the bed or a comfortable seat.Another misunderstanding is that greyhounds must be aggressive(好斗的) because they are big in size.In fact greyhounds love people and are gentle with children.
Greyhounds can live fo ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )r 12～14 years but usually only race for two or three years，and after that they make great pets.They don’t need a lot of space，don’t make a lot of noise，and don’t eat a lot for their size.21世纪教育网版权所有
Normally，greyhoun ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ds can be as tall as 90 cm.There is，however，a small sized greyhound，which stands only 33 cm.Greyhounds come in a variety of colours.Grey and yellowish brown are the most common.Others include black，white，blue，red and brown or a mix of these.
Greyhounds have ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) smooth body coats，low body fat and are very healthy.Because they’re slim(苗条的)，they don’t have the leg problems like other dogs the same height.But they do feel the cold，especially since they would much rather be at home in bed than walking around outside.
1．The text is written mainly________.
A．to tell people how to raise greyhounds
B．to let people know more about greyhounds
C．to explain why greyhounds are aggressive
D．to describe greyhounds of different colours
答案 B
解析 本文提供了有关灰狗的各方面情况，让人们更多了解它。此题较易，其他项基本上没有干扰作用。
2．It can be inferred that greyhounds________.
A．love big doghouses
B．like staying in bed all day
C．make the best guard dogs
D．need some exercise outdoors
答案 D
解析 原文有“They do ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )n’t need a lot of space...”，故A项错误；B项错在“all day”；由原文可知，greyhound并不好斗，所以不会成为最好的看门狗，故C项错误；由原文“They do need regular exercise...”可知D项才是合理的推断。
3．Why does the author say that greyhounds make great pets 【来源：21·世纪·教育·网】
A．They are big in size.
B．They live a very long life.
C．They can run races for some time.
D．They are quiet and easy to look after.
答案 D
解析 由第二段最后一句可得出此判断。
4．If you keep a pet greyhound，it is important________.
A．to keep it slim
B．to keep it warm
C．to take special care of its legs
D．to take it to animal doctors regularly
答案 B

__1__We have already ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )worked with a number of schools across the country，and just believe us，that there are many people asking this question！The discussion over uniforms in schools is complicated.__2__2-1-c-n-j-y
Professional and Promotes Good Discipline：
Some people say ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) that a kid in a uniform is much more likely to study seriously.Wearing the school uniform indicates child is attending school identical to dad dresses up when he goes to work.Schools state that when pupils dress in their “work clothes” more willingly than “play clothes” then they take a serious approach to the process of studying.__3__It can also lessen the number of discipline problems.And the fact that children these days do not have self discipline for the reason that parents do not want to discipline them.And this makes it much more difficult for the teacher that has to handle classes of 25～30 children at a time.__4__
Individuality：
__5__Educators state t ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )hat a school program encouraging children to have individual thought is a great deal more significant than what they are dressed in.They inhibit inspiration and self expression，making students conform.
A．The advantages of school uniforms seem to be more acceptable.
B．Every coin has two sides.
C．What are the advantages and disadvantages of school uniform
D．Most think that uniforms help to maintain school discipline.
E．As a result we have to think about it from two sides.
F．Encouraging students ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )’ individuality is probably the most frequently objection to uniforms in school.
G．Besides，schools inform that uniforms lessen fighting and violence.

答案 C

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)
阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中选出最佳选项。
A
When I was growing ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) up in America，I was ashamed of my mother’s Chinese English.Because of her English，she was often treated unfairly.People in department stores，at banks，and at restaurants did not take her seriously，did not give her good service，pretended not to understand her，or even acted as if they did not hear her.
My mother has long rea ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )lized the limitations of her English as well.When I was fifteen，she used to have me call people on the phone to pretend I was she.I was forced to ask for information or even to yell at people who had been rude to her.One time I had to call her stockbroker(股票经纪人)．I said in an adolescent voice that was not very convincing，“This is Mrs.Tan.”
And my mother was ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )standing beside me，whispering loudly，“Why he didn’t send me check already two week late.”
And then，in perfect ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )English I said “I’m getting rather concerned.You agreed to send the check two weeks ago，but it hasn’t arrived.”
Then she talked more ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )loudly.“What he want？I come to New York tell him front of his boss.”And so I turned to the stockbroker again，“I can’t tolerate any more excuse.If I don’t receive the check immediately，I am going to have to speak to your manager when I am in New York next week.”
The next wee ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )k we ended up in New York.While I was sitting there red faced，my mother，the real Mrs.Tan，was shouting to his boss in her broken English.
When I was a ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) teenager，my mother’s broken English embarrassed me.But now，I see it differently.To me，my mother’s English is perfectly clear，perfectly natural.It is my mother tongue.Her language，as I hear it，is vivid，direct，and full of observation and wisdom.It was the language that helped shape the way I saw things，expressed ideas，and made sense of the world.
56．Why was the author’s mother poorly served
A．She was unable to s ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )peak good English. B．She was often misunderstood.
C．She was not clearly heard. D．She was not very polite.
答案 A
解析 细节理解题。根据首段第二、三句可知妈妈不能说地道的英语，并因此在各种场合遭到不公平对待。故A项正确。
57．From Paragraph 2，we know that the author was ________.【出处：21教育名师】
A．good at pretending B．rude to the stockbroker
C．ready to help ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) her mother D．unwilling to phone for her mother

Bullies are a bi ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )g problem in schools.Every week，many children are afraid to go to school.They are afraid that they will be played jokes on by a bully.One study found that 52% of children reported being bullied at least once a week.Sixty percent say that they know someone who could harm them.One student was always being joked because he was short.He didn’t like to go to school because he had to face bullies.

One school princip ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )al is working to end this negative behavior.Last year，he decided to let students know bullying is not allowed there.Students are now encouraged to report bullies and stand up for themselves.Those found to be bullies face harsh penalties(处罚)．Students at their school participate in a program called “Be Bold”．In this program，students work together to prevent violence.They do skits and go into classrooms to talk about the problem.They give other students strategies(策略)on how to deal with bullies.
The principal ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )says that the school has changed since he has addressed the bullying problem.But there are other steps parents can take to help their children with this problem.First，students and their parents should know the school’s rules about bullying and what they should do if it happens.Second，children should be taught to stand up for themselves.They should try to resolve issues by talking them out.If the problem continues，parents and children should record each incident.Children should tell someone if they are being joked.Many children keep bullying a secret.Parents should look for warning signs of bullying.These can include cuts and bruises(淤伤)，worrying，wanting to stay home from school，or a sudden drop in grades.

When something goes w ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )rong，it can be very satisfying to say，“Well，it’s so and so’s fault.” or “I know I’m late，but it’s not my fault；the car broke down.”It is probably not your fault，but once you form the habit of blaming somebody or something else for a bad situation，you are a loser.You have no power and could do nothing that helps change the situation.However，you can have great power over what happens to you if you stop focusing on whom to blame and start focusing on how to remedy the situation.This is the winner’s key to success.
Winners are grea ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )t at overcoming problems.For example，if you were late because your car broke down，maybe you need to have your car examined more regularly.Or，you might start to carry along with you the useful phone numbers，so you could call for help when in need.For another example，if your colleague causes you problems on the job for lack of responsibility or ability，find ways of dealing with his irresponsibility or inability rather than simply blame the person.Ask to work with a different person，or don’t rely on this person.You should accept that the person is not reliable and find creative ways to work successfully regardless of how your colleague fails to do his job well.
This is what b ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )eing a winner is all about—creatively using your skills and talents so that you are successful no matter what happens.Winners don’t have fewer problems in their lives；they have just as many difficult situations to face as anybody else.They are just better at seeing those problems as challenges and opportunities to develop their own talents.So，stop focusing on “whose fault it is.” Once you are confident about your power over bad situations，problems are just stepping stones for success.
64．According to the passage，winners ________.
A．deal with problems rather than blame others
B．meet with fewer difficulties in their lives
C．have responsible and able colleagues
D．blame themselves rather than others
答案 A
解析 细节理解题。由第一段倒数第一、二句可知，成功者的秘诀是问题发生后，不是责备别人而是想法解决问题，故A项正确。
65．The underli ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ned word “remedy” in Paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to ________.
A．avoid B．accept C．improve D．consider
答案 C
解析 词义猜测题。由画线词所在句 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )子的语境可知，成功者的秘诀在于不是把注意力集中在谁该受到责备而是集中在怎样改善糟糕的境况。此处的动词remedy意为：改进，改正，纠正；improve改善，改进，符合语境。
66．When your colleague brings about a problem，you should ________.
A．find a better way to ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) handle the problem B．blame him for his lack of responsibility
C．tell him to f ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ind the cause of the problem D．ask a more able colleague for help
答案 A
解析 推理判断题。总览文 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )章文意可知，当因为你的同事造成某一问题产生时，你不应该去抱怨他、责备他缺少责任感(B)，告诉他找到问题的根源(C)，或向一位更能干的同事求助(D)，而是要找到一个更好的解决问题的方法，故A项符合文意。
67．Which of the following is the best title for the passage
A．A Winner’s Secret B．A Winner’s Problem
C．A Winner’s Opportunity D．A Winner’s Achievement
答案 A
解析 主旨大意题。首段尾 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )句的This is the winner’s key to success为文章的主题句。A项既高度概括了文章的主旨，也同时具备了针对性和醒目性，为本文的最佳标题。

Since the 800’s，Novemb ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )er 1st is a holiday known as All Saints’ Day.The evening before is known as All Hallowe’en or Halloween.During the festival，poor people would beg for food and families would give them “soul cakes” in return for their promise to pray for the family’s dead relatives.www.21-cn-jy.com
Halloween，howe ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ver，has a special meaning for children today，who dress in funny or ghostly clothes and knock at neighborhood doors shouting “Trick or Treat！”Princesses，ghosts and witches all hold bags open to catch the candies or cakes that the neighbors drop in.
Today school ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) dances and neighborhood parties called“block parties”are popular among young and old.They dress up as historical or political figures and go to costume parties.Teenagers enjoy costume dances at their schools and the more outrageous the costume the better!
Certain tricks ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) such as soaping car windows and knocking at the neighbors’windows are expected.But parties and tricks are not the only things that Halloweeners enjoy doing.Some collect money to buy food and medicine for poor children around the world.21·cn·jy·com
Halloween began as ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) a celebration concerned with bad spirits.Black is one of the traditional Halloween colors，probably because Halloween festivals and traditions take place at night.Pumpkins are also a symbol of Halloween.Carving pumpkins into Jack o’ lanterns is a Halloween custom originating in Ireland.When the Irish brought their customs to the United States，they carved faces on pumpkins instead of turnips(蔓菁)because in the autumn pumpkins were more plentiful than turnips.Today Jack o’ lanterns in the windows of a house on Halloween night let costumed children know that there are candies waiting if they knock and say“Trick or Treat！” 21*cnjy*com
