第二部分 阅读理解(共20小题;每小题2分,满分40分)
A
The old man walked ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) with a walking stick slowly into the restaurant. His poor jacket, patched (打补丁的) trousers, and worn-out shoes made him stand out from the usual Saturday morning breakfast people. Unforgettable were his pale blue eyes that sparkled like diamonds, large rosy cheeks, and thin lips that held a steady smile.
He walked toward ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) a table by the window. A young waitress watched him and ran over to him, saying, “Here, Sir. Let me give you a hand with that chair.”
Without a wo ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )rd, he smiled and nodded a thank you. She pulled the chair away from the table. Supporting him with one arm, she helped him move in front of the chair, and get comfortably seated. Then she pushed the table up close to him, and put his stick against the table where he could reach it.
In a soft, clear voice he said, “Thank you, Miss.”
“You’re welcome, ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) Sir.” She replied. “My name is Mary. I’ll be back in a moment. If you need anything, just wave at me.”
After he had finis ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )hed a hearty meal of pancakes, bacon, and hot lemon tea, Mary brought him the change, helping him up from his chair and out from behind the table. She handed him his stick, and walked with him to the front door. Holding the door open for him, she said, “Come back and see us, Sir!”
He nodded a ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) thank you and said softly with a smile, “You are very kind!”
When Mary went t ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )o clean his table, she was shocked. Under his plate she found a business card and a note written on the napkin, under which was a $ 100 bill.
The note on the ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )napkin read, “Dear Mary, I respect you very much, and you respect yourself, too. It shows by the way you treat others. You have found the secret of happiness. Your kind gestures will shine through those who meet you.”
The man she had s ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )erved was the owner of the restaurant. This was the first time that she, or any of his employees, had seen him in person.
11. The old man was different from the usual crowd because_______.
A. he wore a big smile B. he was too old to move
C. he was poorly dressed D. his eyes shone with happiness

A. the old man was the boss of the restaurant
B. the old man had some difficulty moving and taking a seat
C. she was worried that the old man might cause trouble to her
D. the old man had asked her to wait on him
13. The man came to the restaurant ______.
A. to have breakfast B. to see his employees
C. to see how Mary ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )served customers D. to find out how his restaurant was working

A. serving others is a respectable job
B. respecting others means respecting oneself
C. Mary would get a rise as a result of her kindness
D. Mary’s kind service would bring in more money for her
15. What can we learn from the story

B
Whether you admit it ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) or not, music improves our daily life and makes us feel easy, especially the music of Beethoven, Mozart. But can you believe that a school in England is using classical music to cut down on students’ bad behavior
The head teacher ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )Brian Walker at the West Park School in Derby asks some students to stay behind after school on Fridays. He makes his students listen to Mozart and other classical music. He also makes them copy his favorite poems and they have to watch educational videos.
Mr. Walker says hi ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )s main aim is to stop noisy pupils causing trouble in class for students who want to study. He said the students staying behind were "not the smokers or drinkers, the truants (逃学的学生 ) or the people who are late for school... It's those who have slowed the learning and teaching in class for everyone". Mr. Walker said this was unacceptable, because it was making the rest of the students distract(分散) their attention on their study.
Mr. Walker believes ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) what he does reminds students that education is something to value. "It helps them see they are part of something bigger that will improve their life chances," he said. The head teacher thinks students in fact learn from being kept behind after school. "Hopefully, I open their ears to an experience they don't normally have and...don't want to have again, so it's both educational and acts as a warning."
Music has had ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )success elsewhere in reducing bad behavior. In 2004, it reduced crime (犯罪)on London's subway by 25 percent. Researchers from a Belfast university found it helped stop elephants' bad behavior. However, one West Park student called Kieran said, "An hour of Mr. Walker's music is a real killer."
16. Mr. Walke ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )r asks his students to listen to music to _______________.
A. feel sorry for their bad behavior B. reduce their bad behavior
C. get them to love m ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )usic gradually D. make them rest after a day's study
17. A student who _____may be left behind to listen to Mozart after class.
A. plays truant B. smokes in class
C. bothers others in class D. comes late for class
18. Why does Mr. Walke ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )r say some students' bad behavior is unacceptable
A. Because th ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )e rest of the students hate them. B. Because they are wasting their life.
C. Because they ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )are troubling teachers. D. Because they influence the other students.
19. In the eyes of Mr. Walker, _____.
A. some students don't realize education is valuable
B. all students can learn from music
C. music must be taught after class
D. students ought to love music
20. It can be inferred from the last paragraph that_____.
A. the action Mr. Walker takes doesn't really work as planned
B. Mr. Walker aims to tell students study is important
C. once music helped ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )animals behave well D. animals also like to listen to music
C
In the animal kingd ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )om, weakness can bring about aggression in other animal. This sometimes happens with humans also. But I have found that my weakness brings out the kindness in people. I see it every day when people hold doors for me, pour cream into my coffee, or help me to put on my coat. And I have discovered that it makes them happy.
From my wheelchai ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )r experience, I see the best in people, but sometimes I feel sad because those who appear independent miss the kindness I see daily. They don’t get to see this soft side of others. Often, we try every way possible to avoid showing our weakness, which includes a lot of pretending. But only when we stop pretending we’re brave or strong do we allow people to show the kindness that’s in them.
Last month, when ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) I was driving home on a busy highway, I began to feel unwell and drove more slowly than usual. People behind me began to get impatient and angry, with some speeding up alongside me, horning (按喇叭) or even shouting at me. At the moment I decided to do something I had never done in twenty-four years of driving. I put on the car flashlights and drove on at a really low speed.
No more angry shouts and no more horns!
When I put on my fl ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ashlights, I was saying to other drivers, “I have a problem here. I am weak and doing the best I can.” And everyone understood. Several times, I saw drivers who wanted to pass. They couldn’t get around me because of the stream of passing traffic. But instead of getting impatient and angry, they waited, knowing the driver in front of them was in some way weak.
Sometimes situati ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ons call for us to act strong and brave even when we don’t feel that way. But those are few and far between. More often, it would be better if we don’t pretend we feel strong when we feel weak or pretend that we are brave when we are scared.
21. The author has ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) discovered that people will feel happy when ______.
A. they offer their help B. they receive others’ help
C. they feel others’ kindness D. they show their weakness
22. The author feels sad sometimes because ______.
A. he has a soft heart B. he relies much on others
C. some people pretend to be kind
D. some people fail to see the kindness in others
23. What did the other drivers do when they saw the flashlights
A. They speed up to pass. B. They waited with patience.
C. They tried their best to help.
D. They put on their flashlights too.
24. In this passage, the author advises us to ______.
A. handle problems by ourselves B. accept help from others
C. admit our weakness D. show our bravery
25. Which of the following is the best title for the passage
A. A Wheelchair Experience. B. Weakness and Kindness.
C. Weakness and Strength D. A Driving Experience
二.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。选项中的两项为多余选项。
Lots of people stre ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ss out about talking in front of the class or getting laughed at if they make a mistake in front of an audience. 26 The “stress hormones" that your body produces at times like these can actually help you focus.
But when ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) worry and stress about performing get to be too much, these hormones give people that “red alert(紧急状态)”feeling-the one that causes you to feel cold or sweaty, or get butterflies in your stomach. 27
Be prepared. ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) 28 Rehearse(排练)as much as you can and practice in front of others at every opportunity. Most of all, think positively. Tell yourself “I'll be OK" or “ I can do this" even if you are not 100% sure of it
Look aft ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )er yourself. Before big performances it's easy to let taking care of yourself slip as you spend too much time on rehearsals and practice. 29 Exercise can also help you feel good, and along with sleep and nutrition, is an excellent way of keeping those stress hormones from getting out of control.
Find out what ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) the experts do. You can find books, DVDs, and online information about how to give your best when you perform, depending on what type of performance you're preparing for. 30 Or ask the cast of your school play or your drama or music teacher how they beat stage fright. And if your parents or grandparents ever performed, they may have their own secrets to share.
A. Confidence helps beat stress hormones.
B. The following tips can help you avoid that feeling.
C. You're less likely to freeze up if you're well prepared.
D. You can do th ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )is whether you're performing alone or as part of a group.
E. Check out stor ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ies about Olympic gymnasts or your favorite star to get their tips.
F. Feeling ne ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )rvous before a performance is part of your body's way of helping you do your best.
G.You'll look a ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )nd feel your best if you get enough sleep and eat healthy meals before your performance.
第三部分 完形填空(共20小题,每小题1.5分,满分30分)
I firmly believe in th ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )e power of forgiveness and I have got a lot of pleasure from it.
Last year, I was 3 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )1__ at the traffic lights on my way to work when my car was hit from behind. After 32_ , a flustered (惊慌失措的) young man admitted it was his 33_ and apologized to me again and again. After that, he 34_ why he had not been “in the moment” while driving. He told me that his 35 had just run out and promised to pay for the damage to my car later.

After about four months, it was coming up to Christmas and I started to think about how 43_this young man might be feeling, waiting for me to “sting ” him, so I finally made a 44 and sent him this note:
“ Hi Joe,
A few months ago y ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ou 45 the back of my car. I have managed to pick 46 another car, so I have been able to get around. I want to let you know that I am not going to 47_ any payment from you. If in future you could help 48 else out, that would be great.”
After sending it, I ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) felt that a great weight had finally been lifted from my shoulders. It wasn’t until then __49__ I realized the 50_ of forgiving could make one feel happier.
