Dear Coach,I have been out of w ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ork for almost six months now and things are starting to get very tough for me. I am practically living out of my savings. I have been looking for a job, but things are really bad and I cannot find a single person who wants to hire me. I know that the main problem is that I do not have a degree. I want to go back to school and get my degree, but I also need a job now. I owe money to some people who have been helping me. Because I am out of work, I cannot pay them back. What do you think I should do I need to find a job as quickly as possible, and want to know what else to do to get people to give me a chance to work for them.The Unemployed
Dear Unemployed,Before you get yourse ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )lf in a really bad situation, you need to stop borrowing money from people. If you continue doing that, you will be deep in debts and the situation will get even worse for you. The next thing you need to do is look for a job depending on your abilities, skills, and experience. By doing that, you will be increasing your chances pf finding a job that suits you best. And the last thing I will suggest is that you should stop feeling sorry for yourself and continue working hard to get a job that you need. Borrowing money, complaining, and feeling bad for your situation will do no good to you. Stay strong and get out there and start showing the world what you can offer. I promise if you work hard and never give up, you will soon find the job that you are looking for. And while you are doing it, think about getting your degree as well because it will help you to become more challenging. Try those tips.The Coach

The town I’m ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )staying in is pretty small and there isn’t much to do except hike (远足).It’s a little cold now for hiking but my boyfriend, Jack, who is an expert in survival techniques, taught me a few basic tricks.
On a sunny day, we ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )decided to go hiking. I’m a huge fan of tea, but I’ve never actually seen it done or learned to do it. So today was the day! We searched for a pine tree (松树）and used a knife to cut off a small part of the tree; we boiled some water with the pine needles. I made Jack try it first and he claimed to like it, so I tried it ... but I think I’ll stick to fruit and nut teas.
A few days later ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )we went for a hike in a really nice place nearby. We came to a bridge which was over a mostly dried-out river with some water still flowing through. I love climbing over rocks! We went down quite a long way till we came to a large rock and sat down to enjoy the landscape for a while. Then it was near sunset and we decided to go back.
We made a wrong t ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )urn in the way. It soon became obvious that we were in a race with the sun. We hoped that we could find a new way. It was getting darker and darker as we pushed through some bushes to try to get back. The trees and bushes were so thick that we had to find a different way to go forward.
Eventually we heard ca ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )rs on the road and followed the sound until we went back to a main road. The sound really acted as our guide.
24. Which of the following is TRUE about the author
A. She is good at survival techniques.
B. She doesn’t like the tea made from pine trees.
C. She loves to climb over rocks at sunset.
D. She likes hiking more than other sports.
25. What does ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) the writer mean by saying the underlined sentence in Paragraph 2
A. She could enjoy tea.
B. She could make tea herself.
C. She could try different tea.
D. She could go hiking with Jack.
26. It can b ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )e inferred from the passage the writer and her boyfriend________ .
A. took the wrong direction
B. got a ride on their way back
C. lost confidence in the bushes
D. were in a race with the moon
27. How did the writer find her way out of the woods
A. With the help of other drivers.
B. With the guides leading the way.
C. By following the sound of cars.
D. By pushing through the bushes.
C
Personality is ofte ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )n thought to be one thing that we can control. We cannot change the color of the skin we are born with. However, we can try to develop good characters and learn how to express ourselves. But after meeting John in the hospital, I realize how uncontrollable (难以控制的） our personalities can be sometimes. They lead to what kinds of persons we are.
John was once the m ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )anager of a company. He took charge of lots of workers, and had great abilities in his work. However, five years ago, John suffered damage in his brain. It led to much bleeding of the front part of his head, which is known to control our ability to judge “Hat’s good or bad, to reason, and to control many of our activities. Ever since then, nothing was the same as before for John or his family. John didn’t become paralyzed (瘫痪）or lose the ability to speak like many patients. In fact, he was quite active and spoke fluently. However, John was a different person, and the man his wife and family once had known was no longer there.
After the acciden ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )t, John became totally different as if he no longer cared about what he said or how people thought about him. During our meeting, John was very happy, but he often threw out words which were considered to be improper (不恰当的）for the time and place. According to his wife, he no longer feels the need to brush his teeth, take a bath, and do other daily activities unless he’s told to do so. This is quite unexpected from a man who once managed a large company and raised a family with children.
I've seen many patie ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )nts who had strokes during my turn in the hospital. Of those who survive, some people may lose their ability to walk, while others may lose their sight. But my meeting with John made me realize that the most heart-breaking moment for me to suffer is to see those who lose their personalities, which make us who we are.
28. The author wrote this text to________.
A. show the importance of people’s personalities
B. tell us the importance of people’s brains
C. show the bad effect of brain bleeding
D. tell John a good living way
29. From this text we can see that Mr. John used to be________.
A. a kind driver
B. a manager of a company
C. a skilled teacher
D. a doctor in a hospital
30. How different was John after his brain got damaged
A. He became much happier than before.
B. He received more care from his families.
C. He lost control of his words and actions.
D. He couldn’t speak as well as he used to.
31. According to the passage, what make(s) us who we are
A. Our appearances.
B. Our temper.
C. Our personalities.
D. Our determination.

The fact that dogs ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) and cats dislike each other is no secret. Now the results of this new study may cause a similar feeling between the animal owners, because it argues that cat owners are generally smarter than dog owners!
The new wisdom is b ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ased on a survey of 600 university students. The researchers asked the youngsters to identify themselves as dog or cat lovers and describe what they liked most about their choices of animals. The survey also included questions that helped the researchers assess (评 估）their personalities.
After analyzing ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) the results, the researchers came to the conclusion that “cat” people were intellectually superior (更好）to “dog” people. The reason might be, as the researchers say, that people who prefer dogs generally like being outdoors with their pets and interacting with other people, while those who prefer cats would rather spend their days indoors reading or on some other “intellectual” activities.
This is not the fir ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )st time researchers have reached this conclusion. A 2010 study stated that “cat” people were more educated than “dog” people. The data collected from the 2980 people surveyed, showed that “cat” people were about 1.5 times more likely to have degrees than those who owned dogs. However, it was not the choice of pets that made them smarter or dumber (愚蠢的）.It was just that the people with degrees were in jobs that required longer working hours and therefore chose pets that were better suited to this busy lifestyle.
However, not all is l ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ost for dog owners. While they may be not as smart, their pets sure are. That was revealed by a 2009 study, in which cats and dogs were presented with two pieces of string, only one of which was attached to a food reward—Guess which one could never tell which one to pull for the treat The so-called smart cats of course!
32. The 600 university students are surveyed to______.
A. master the lifestyles of cats and dogs
B. know the features of cat and dog owners
C. choose suitable pets among cats and dogs
D. know their choices of animals and personalities
33. The reason for “cat” people’s being smarter might be_______.
A. their indoor intellectual activities
B. their choice of the pet
C. their interaction with other people
D. their outdoor activities
34. More educated people choose cats as their pets because_________.
A. cats can make them cleverer
B. cats go well with their lifestyle
C. cats are much smarter than other animals
D. cats are their friends to work long hours with
35. What may the underlined sentence in the last paragraph mean
A. Not all people love to own dogs,
B. There‘s good news for dog owners.
C. Dog owners can do nothing about their pets.
D. Dogs owners can become as smart as their pets.
第二节(共5小题;每小题2分，满分10分）
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。
Not everything ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) will come easily to you. There will be a time when you want to do something, either write a book, learn to dance, or develop a new skill. If it’s something you have already had a gift for, things might come easily, but it’s likely that you，re going to find the learning process to be much harder than you imagined. 36 You can’t let the frustration (沮丧）keep you from your end goal, and you need to learn how to overcome it. If you don’t, you’ll never leave your personal comfort zone and you’ll find yourself living a very narrow life.
It won’t last.
If you continue to ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )push yourself, despite the frustration, you’re going to find you get through things quite quickly. 37 The more you ignore it, the sooner the emotion disappears, getting replaced with a sense of accomplishment.
38
It’s easy to look a ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )t someone who started to learn a new skill at the same time as you did and think that they’re picking things up so much faster than you, and to take this as a sign that you’re not meant to pick up the skill. You can，t do this. It，s likely that the person you admire has dealt with frustration of their own and might be just as jealous of you as you are of them. You also have to continuously remind yourself that everyone learns at his or her own pace.
Look for backdoors.
39 If you've been wo ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )rking on something，such as learning to ride a horse, for a long period of time, you d better try changing instructors of disciplines (纪律）to see if that helps. If you’re writing a book, you’d better join a different club, or start a new project. There .5s no shame in using a back door to get through the front after you’ve been struggling with a situation for an extended period of time.
Learn to love the process.
Life is about the jour ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ney, not the end result. Next time you set out to learn something new, don’t get so caught up in the idea of being a success and mastering whatever skill you want to develop. 40 This takes the self-inflicted (自己造成的）pressure off you，reducing the amount of frustration you experience.
A. Instead focus on each stage and appreciate the learning process.
B. You’re going to get frustrated.
C. Frustration isn’t a permanent state.
D. Don’t be afraid of the process.
E. Don’t compare yourself with others. .
F. Sometimes there’s a quick way of making something become dear.
G. There are some people who are jealous of you.

There were times w ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )hen I wanted to be someone else when growing up. Even now, this is what I tend to 41 from time to time. Even if it’s for just once in my life, I would be very .42. It doesn’t mean I am ungrateful, for I have family and friends I will 43 forever their selfless love throughout my life. But life seems 44. There are persons around who look better than you or have a (n) 45 over you. What I’ve told myself is: you can be whoever you want to be but you should try to be the “best-you” 46 .
47, sometimes I do find myself 48, “How can
I be the ‘best-me’ ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )when I don’t even know who l am ” It seems as if my 49 were being guided by a broken compass. I believe I can 50 someone who will guide my footsteps in the right 51 and lead me to become the person I want to be.
Real beauty is 52 in ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) one’s heart. We should pay attention to the 53 but what is more important is what’s inside. The 54 of real beauty can bring fruits of happiness, compassion and kindness but it 55 from its root. Some day you’ll come to 56 there’s no need for you to be like anyone else because being you is all you need.

书面表达 (One possible version)
Dear Editor,
Nowadays nobody d ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )oubts that animals are our good friends. However, some wild animals are dying out and many are endangered because they’re illegally hunted for their meat, fur, feathers or other parts. We must realize this serious problem and take active measures to protect them.
In my opinion, it ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )is everybody’s duty to protect wild animals. Just imagine, if no one wanted something from the animals, then the current problem wouldn’t even exist! Thus I will try to persuade my relatives and friends not to buy those wildlife products. I believe if everyone contributes a little, the world will eventually be a harmonious place.
Yours sincerely,

Dear Coach,I have been out of w ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ork for almost six months now and things are starting to get very tough for me. I am practically living out of my savings. I have been looking for a job, but things are really bad and I cannot find a single person who wants to hire me. I know that the main problem is that I do not have a degree. I want to go back to school and get my degree, but I also need a job now. I owe money to some people who have been helping me. Because I am out of work, I cannot pay them back. What do you think I should do I need to find a job as quickly as possible, and want to know what else to do to get people to give me a chance to work for them.The Unemployed
Dear Unemployed,Before you get yourse ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )lf in a really bad situation, you need to stop borrowing money from people. If you continue doing that, you will be deep in debts and the situation will get even worse for you. The next thing you need to do is look for a job depending on your abilities, skills, and experience. By doing that, you will be increasing your chances pf finding a job that suits you best. And the last thing I will suggest is that you should stop feeling sorry for yourself and continue working hard to get a job that you need. Borrowing money, complaining, and feeling bad for your situation will do no good to you. Stay strong and get out there and start showing the world what you can offer. I promise if you work hard and never give up, you will soon find the job that you are looking for. And while you are doing it, think about getting your degree as well because it will help you to become more challenging. Try those tips.The Coach

The town I’m ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )staying in is pretty small and there isn’t much to do except hike (远足).It’s a little cold now for hiking but my boyfriend, Jack, who is an expert in survival techniques, taught me a few basic tricks.
On a sunny day, we ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )decided to go hiking. I’m a huge fan of tea, but I’ve never actually seen it done or learned to do it. So today was the day! We searched for a pine tree (松树）and used a knife to cut off a small part of the tree; we boiled some water with the pine needles. I made Jack try it first and he claimed to like it, so I tried it ... but I think I’ll stick to fruit and nut teas.
A few days later ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )we went for a hike in a really nice place nearby. We came to a bridge which was over a mostly dried-out river with some water still flowing through. I love climbing over rocks! We went down quite a long way till we came to a large rock and sat down to enjoy the landscape for a while. Then it was near sunset and we decided to go back.
We made a wrong t ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )urn in the way. It soon became obvious that we were in a race with the sun. We hoped that we could find a new way. It was getting darker and darker as we pushed through some bushes to try to get back. The trees and bushes were so thick that we had to find a different way to go forward.
Eventually we heard ca ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )rs on the road and followed the sound until we went back to a main road. The sound really acted as our guide.
24. Which of the following is TRUE about the author
A. She is good at survival techniques.
B. She doesn’t like the tea made from pine trees.
C. She loves to climb over rocks at sunset.
D. She likes hiking more than other sports.
25. What does ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) the writer mean by saying the underlined sentence in Paragraph 2
A. She could enjoy tea.
B. She could make tea herself.
C. She could try different tea.
D. She could go hiking with Jack.
26. It can b ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )e inferred from the passage the writer and her boyfriend________ .
A. took the wrong direction
B. got a ride on their way back
C. lost confidence in the bushes
D. were in a race with the moon
27. How did the writer find her way out of the woods
A. With the help of other drivers.
B. With the guides leading the way.
C. By following the sound of cars.
D. By pushing through the bushes.
C
Personality is ofte ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )n thought to be one thing that we can control. We cannot change the color of the skin we are born with. However, we can try to develop good characters and learn how to express ourselves. But after meeting John in the hospital, I realize how uncontrollable (难以控制的） our personalities can be sometimes. They lead to what kinds of persons we are.
John was once the m ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )anager of a company. He took charge of lots of workers, and had great abilities in his work. However, five years ago, John suffered damage in his brain. It led to much bleeding of the front part of his head, which is known to control our ability to judge “Hat’s good or bad, to reason, and to control many of our activities. Ever since then, nothing was the same as before for John or his family. John didn’t become paralyzed (瘫痪）or lose the ability to speak like many patients. In fact, he was quite active and spoke fluently. However, John was a different person, and the man his wife and family once had known was no longer there.
After the acciden ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )t, John became totally different as if he no longer cared about what he said or how people thought about him. During our meeting, John was very happy, but he often threw out words which were considered to be improper (不恰当的）for the time and place. According to his wife, he no longer feels the need to brush his teeth, take a bath, and do other daily activities unless he’s told to do so. This is quite unexpected from a man who once managed a large company and raised a family with children.
I've seen many patie ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )nts who had strokes during my turn in the hospital. Of those who survive, some people may lose their ability to walk, while others may lose their sight. But my meeting with John made me realize that the most heart-breaking moment for me to suffer is to see those who lose their personalities, which make us who we are.
28. The author wrote this text to________.
A. show the importance of people’s personalities
B. tell us the importance of people’s brains
C. show the bad effect of brain bleeding
D. tell John a good living way
29. From this text we can see that Mr. John used to be________.
A. a kind driver
B. a manager of a company
C. a skilled teacher
D. a doctor in a hospital
30. How different was John after his brain got damaged
A. He became much happier than before.
B. He received more care from his families.
C. He lost control of his words and actions.
D. He couldn’t speak as well as he used to.
31. According to the passage, what make(s) us who we are
A. Our appearances.
B. Our temper.
C. Our personalities.
D. Our determination.

The fact that dogs ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) and cats dislike each other is no secret. Now the results of this new study may cause a similar feeling between the animal owners, because it argues that cat owners are generally smarter than dog owners!
The new wisdom is b ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ased on a survey of 600 university students. The researchers asked the youngsters to identify themselves as dog or cat lovers and describe what they liked most about their choices of animals. The survey also included questions that helped the researchers assess (评 估）their personalities.
After analyzing ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) the results, the researchers came to the conclusion that “cat” people were intellectually superior (更好）to “dog” people. The reason might be, as the researchers say, that people who prefer dogs generally like being outdoors with their pets and interacting with other people, while those who prefer cats would rather spend their days indoors reading or on some other “intellectual” activities.
This is not the fir ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )st time researchers have reached this conclusion. A 2010 study stated that “cat” people were more educated than “dog” people. The data collected from the 2980 people surveyed, showed that “cat” people were about 1.5 times more likely to have degrees than those who owned dogs. However, it was not the choice of pets that made them smarter or dumber (愚蠢的）.It was just that the people with degrees were in jobs that required longer working hours and therefore chose pets that were better suited to this busy lifestyle.
However, not all is l ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ost for dog owners. While they may be not as smart, their pets sure are. That was revealed by a 2009 study, in which cats and dogs were presented with two pieces of string, only one of which was attached to a food reward—Guess which one could never tell which one to pull for the treat The so-called smart cats of course!
32. The 600 university students are surveyed to______.
A. master the lifestyles of cats and dogs
B. know the features of cat and dog owners
C. choose suitable pets among cats and dogs
D. know their choices of animals and personalities
33. The reason for “cat” people’s being smarter might be_______.
A. their indoor intellectual activities
B. their choice of the pet
C. their interaction with other people
D. their outdoor activities
34. More educated people choose cats as their pets because_________.
A. cats can make them cleverer
B. cats go well with their lifestyle
C. cats are much smarter than other animals
D. cats are their friends to work long hours with
35. What may the underlined sentence in the last paragraph mean
A. Not all people love to own dogs,
B. There‘s good news for dog owners.
C. Dog owners can do nothing about their pets.
D. Dogs owners can become as smart as their pets.
第二节(共5小题;每小题2分，满分10分）
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。
Not everything ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) will come easily to you. There will be a time when you want to do something, either write a book, learn to dance, or develop a new skill. If it’s something you have already had a gift for, things might come easily, but it’s likely that you，re going to find the learning process to be much harder than you imagined. 36 You can’t let the frustration (沮丧）keep you from your end goal, and you need to learn how to overcome it. If you don’t, you’ll never leave your personal comfort zone and you’ll find yourself living a very narrow life.
It won’t last.
If you continue to ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )push yourself, despite the frustration, you’re going to find you get through things quite quickly. 37 The more you ignore it, the sooner the emotion disappears, getting replaced with a sense of accomplishment.
38
It’s easy to look a ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )t someone who started to learn a new skill at the same time as you did and think that they’re picking things up so much faster than you, and to take this as a sign that you’re not meant to pick up the skill. You can，t do this. It，s likely that the person you admire has dealt with frustration of their own and might be just as jealous of you as you are of them. You also have to continuously remind yourself that everyone learns at his or her own pace.
Look for backdoors.
39 If you've been wo ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )rking on something，such as learning to ride a horse, for a long period of time, you d better try changing instructors of disciplines (纪律）to see if that helps. If you’re writing a book, you’d better join a different club, or start a new project. There .5s no shame in using a back door to get through the front after you’ve been struggling with a situation for an extended period of time.
Learn to love the process.
Life is about the jour ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ney, not the end result. Next time you set out to learn something new, don’t get so caught up in the idea of being a success and mastering whatever skill you want to develop. 40 This takes the self-inflicted (自己造成的）pressure off you，reducing the amount of frustration you experience.
A. Instead focus on each stage and appreciate the learning process.
B. You’re going to get frustrated.
C. Frustration isn’t a permanent state.
D. Don’t be afraid of the process.
E. Don’t compare yourself with others. .
F. Sometimes there’s a quick way of making something become dear.
G. There are some people who are jealous of you.

Dear Editor,
Nowadays nobody d ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )oubts that animals are our good friends. However, some wild animals are dying out and many are endangered because they’re illegally hunted for their meat, fur, feathers or other parts. We must realize this serious problem and take active measures to protect them.
In my opinion, it ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )is everybody’s duty to protect wild animals. Just imagine, if no one wanted something from the animals, then the current problem wouldn’t even exist! Thus I will try to persuade my relatives and friends not to buy those wildlife products. I believe if everyone contributes a little, the world will eventually be a harmonious place.
Yours sincerely,
