Mark felt that it was time for him to take part in his community, so he went to the neighbourhood meeting after work. The area’s city councilwoman(女议员) was leading a discussion about how the quality of life was decreasing. The neighborhood faced many problems.
Mark looked at the charts taped to the walls. There were charts for parking problems, crime, and for problems in vacant (空置的) buildings. People were supposed to suggest solutions to the councilwoman.
It was too much for Mark. “The problems are too big,” he thought. He turned to the man next to him and said, “I think this is a waste of my time. Nothing I could do would make a difference here.”
Mark thought some more on his way to the bus stop. “People should just take care of themselves,” he decided. “That’s enough to do. I can’t take on all the problems of the world.”
As he neared the bus stop, Mark saw a woman carrying a grocery bag and a baby. She was trying to unlock her car, but she didn’t have a free hand. As Mark got closer, her other child, a little boy, suddenly darted into the street. The woman tried to reach for him, but as she moved, her bag shifted and the groceries started to fall out. Mark ran to take the boy’s arm and led him back to his mother. Then he picked up the groceries while the woman smiled in relief. “Thanks!” she said. “You’ve got great timing!”
“Just being neighborly,” Mark said. As he rode home, he glanced at the walls of the bus. On one of them was “Small acts of kindness add up.” Mark smiled and thought, “Maybe that’s a good place to start.”
54. In Mark’s opinion, ________ .
A. nobody was so able as to solve the problems
B. he was not in the position to solve such problems
C. many people were too selfish to think about others
D. he already had more than enough work to do
55. The underlined word “darted” in paragraph5 can be best replaced by “ _______”.
A. walked B. marched C. wandered D. rushed
56. What is the words on the bus wall mean ________
A. You should be kind to your neighbors and they will treat you the same way.
B. Everyone can play his own part to make things better.
C. All small acts will add up to kindness.
D. It’s a small act to help a person in need.
57. The passage is mainly about _______ .
A. how individuals (个人) can help make a difference
B. running a neighborhood meeting to solve its problems
C. citizen’s reactions to the problems they face
D. solving problems through group action
D
There are two types of people in the world. Although they have equal degree of health and wealth and other comforts of life, one becomes happy, the other becomes unhappy. This arises from the different ways in which they consider things, persons, events and the resulting effects upon their minds.
People who are to be happy fix their attention on the convenience of things: the pleasant parts of conversation, the well prepared dishes, the goodness of the wine, the fine weather. They enjoy all the cheerful things. Those who are to be unhappy think and speak only of the opposite things. Therefore, they are continually dissatisfied. By their remarks, they sour the pleasure of society, offend (hurt) many people, and make themselves disagreeable everywhere. If this turn of mind is founded in nature, such unhappy person would be the more to be pitied. the intention of criticizing (批判) and being disliked is perhaps taken up by imitation(模仿). It grows into a habit, unknown to its possessors. The habit may be strong, but it may be cured when those who have it realize its bad effects on their interests and tastes. I hope this little warning may be of service to them, and help them change this habit.
Although in fact it is chiefly an act of the imagination, it has serious results in life since it brings on deep sorrow and bad luck. Those people offend many others. Nobody loves them, and no one treats them with more than the most common politeness and respect. This frequently puts them in bad temper and draws them into arguments. If they aim at getting some advantages in social position or fortune, nobody wishes them success. Nor will anyone start a step of speaking a word to favor their hopes. If they bring on themselves public objections, no one will defend of excuse them, and many will join to criticize their wrongdoings. These should change this bad habit and be pleased with what is pleasing, without worrying needlessly about themselves and others. If they do not, it will be good for others to avoid any contact(接触) with them. Otherwise, it can be disagreeable and sometimes very inconvenient, especially when one becomes mixed up in their quarrels.
58. People who are unhappy ________ .
A. always consider things differently from others
B. usually are affected by the results of certain things
C. usually misunderstand what others think or say
D. always discover the unpleasant side of certain things
59. The phrase “sour the pleasure of society” most nearly means “________”.
A. have a good taste with social life
B. make others unhappy
C. tend to scold others openly
D. enjoy the pleasure of life
60. We can conclude from the passage that ________ .
A. we should pity all such unhappy people
B. such unhappy people are dangerous to social life
C. people can get rid of the habit of unhappiness
D. unhappy people can not understand happy person
第二节：篇章结构（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）
阅读下面一篇文章，请将文后标有A-F 的句子插入文章中标号为61-65的合适位置，使短文连贯完整；其中有一个句子是多余的。
The earth's population has already doubled three times during the past century. Even at that, the human presence, which is clearly-seen almost everywhere on the earth, has had a greater impact (冲击) than simply numbers alone would be a sign.(61)____.
Use of that capacity has both advantages and disadvantages. On one hand, developments in technology have brought great benefits (益处) to almost all people. Most people today get close to goods and services that were once enjoyed only by the wealthy—in transportation, communication, nutrition, health care, entertainment, and so on. (62)_____. The growth of agricultural technology has made possible a very large population but has brought great shortage on the soil and water that are needed to continue great deal of production.
Our use of vast stores of fossil fuels have made us dependent on a nonrenewable resource. In our present numbers, we will not be able to keep up our way of living on the energy that current technology provides, and alternative technologies may be unsuitable or may present unacceptable dangers. (63).____. Already, by-products of industrialization in the atmosphere may be using up the ozone (臭氧) layer, which protects the planet's surface from harmful ultraviolet rays, and may be creating a buildup of carbon dioxide, which traps heat and could raise the planet's average temperatures.
(64)._____. It has interfered with their food sources; has changed their habitats by changing the temperature and chemical composition of large parts of the world environment; has destroyed their ecosystems by introducing foreign species, has reduced the number of living species; and changed the breeding (养殖 ) style of certain plants and animals by selective breeding and more recently by genetic engineering.
(65).____.
(A)From the standpoint of other species, the human presence has reduced the amount of the earth's surface available to them by clearing large areas of vegetation.
(B).It is not only large technologies—nuclear reactors or agriculture—that tend to have side effects, but also the small, everyday ones. The effects of ordinary technologies may be individually small but collectively significant.
(C).What the future holds for life on earth will be determined largely by the human species. The same intelligence that got us where we are—improving many ways for human beings to live on and introducing new dangers into the world—is also our main resource for survival.
(D).Our vast mining and producing efforts produce our goods, but they also dangerously pollute our rivers and oceans, soil, and atmosphere.
(E).We have developed the way to control over most plant and animal species—far more than any other species can—and the way to shape the future rather than merely respond to it.
(F).On the other hand, the very behavior that made it possible for the human species to prosper so rapidly has put us and the earth's other living things at new kinds of risk.

Should students be allowed to carry cellphones
Wired News reports on current attempts by parents groups and policymakers to force New York City schools to allow students to carry cellphones. The schools have long banned(禁止)mobile phones as a public nuisance (有害的东西),but critics argue that cellphones are an important lifeline between children and parents.
“Quite simply, this is a safety issue,” said City Councilwoman Letitia James, “It’s a safety issue that we have to resolve.”
“We don’t need to have kids go off and look at entertainment and do other things during the class,” mayor Bloomberg said on his weekly radio show, “And we just don’t have the ability to check the phones at the door. So I don’t have any easy solutions for parents who want their children to have cellphones before school and after school.”
Where do readers stand on this debate Are cellphones a nuisance or a necessity Or perhaps just a necessary evil Sound off and share your thoughts.

As he neared the bus stop, Mark saw a woman carrying a grocery bag and a baby. She was trying to unlock her car, but she didn’t have a free hand. As Mark got closer, her other child, a little boy, suddenly darted into the street. The woman tried to reach for him, but as she moved, her bag shifted and the groceries started to fall out. Mark ran to take the boy’s arm and led him back to his mother. Then he picked up the groceries while the woman smiled in relief. “Thanks!” she said. “You’ve got great timing!”
“Just being neighborly,” Mark said. As he rode home, he glanced at the walls of the bus. On one of them was “Small acts of kindness add up.” Mark smiled and thought, “Maybe that’s a good place to start.”
54. In Mark’s opinion, ________ .

D
There are two types of people in the world. Although they have equal degree of health and wealth and other comforts of life, one becomes happy, the other becomes unhappy. This arises from the different ways in which they consider things, persons, events and the resulting effects upon their minds.
People who are to be happy fix their attention on the convenience of things: the pleasant parts of conversation, the well prepared dishes, the goodness of the wine, the fine weather. They enjoy all the cheerful things. Those who are to be unhappy think and speak only of the opposite things. Therefore, they are continually dissatisfied. By their remarks, they sour the pleasure of society, offend (hurt) many people, and make themselves disagreeable everywhere. If this turn of mind is founded in nature, such unhappy person would be the more to be pitied. the intention of criticizing (批判) and being disliked is perhaps taken up by imitation(模仿). It grows into a habit, unknown to its possessors. The habit may be strong, but it may be cured when those who have it realize its bad effects on their interests and tastes. I hope this little warning may be of service to them, and help them change this habit.
Although in fact it is chiefly an act of the imagination, it has serious results in life since it brings on deep sorrow and bad luck. Those people offend many others. Nobody loves them, and no one treats them with more than the most common politeness and respect. This frequently puts them in bad temper and draws them into arguments. If they aim at getting some advantages in social position or fortune, nobody wishes them success. Nor will anyone start a step of speaking a word to favor their hopes. If they bring on themselves public objections, no one will defend of excuse them, and many will join to criticize their wrongdoings. These should change this bad habit and be pleased with what is pleasing, without worrying needlessly about themselves and others. If they do not, it will be good for others to avoid any contact(接触) with them. Otherwise, it can be disagreeable and sometimes very inconvenient, especially when one becomes mixed up in their quarrels.
58. People who are unhappy ________ .
A. always consider things differently from others
B. usually are affected by the results of certain things
C. usually misunderstand what others think or say
D. always discover the unpleasant side of certain things
59. The phrase “sour the pleasure of society” most nearly means “________”.
A. have a good taste with social life
B. make others unhappy
C. tend to scold others openly
D. enjoy the pleasure of life
60. We can conclude from the passage that ________ .
A. we should pity all such unhappy people
B. such unhappy people are dangerous to social life
C. people can get rid of the habit of unhappiness
D. unhappy people can not understand happy person

阅读下面一篇文章，请将文后标有A-F 的句子插入文章中标号为61-65的合适位置，使短文连贯完整；其中有一个句子是多余的。
The earth's population has already doubled three times during the past century. Even at that, the human presence, which is clearly-seen almost everywhere on the earth, has had a greater impact (冲击) than simply numbers alone would be a sign.(61)____.
Use of that capacity has both advantages and disadvantages. On one hand, developments in technology have brought great benefits (益处) to almost all people. Most people today get close to goods and services that were once enjoyed only by the wealthy—in transportation, communication, nutrition, health care, entertainment, and so on. (62)_____. The growth of agricultural technology has made possible a very large population but has brought great shortage on the soil and water that are needed to continue great deal of production.
Our use of vast stores of fossil fuels have made us dependent on a nonrenewable resource. In our present numbers, we will not be able to keep up our way of living on the energy that current technology provides, and alternative technologies may be unsuitable or may present unacceptable dangers. (63).____. Already, by-products of industrialization in the atmosphere may be using up the ozone (臭氧) layer, which protects the planet's surface from harmful ultraviolet rays, and may be creating a buildup of carbon dioxide, which traps heat and could raise the planet's average temperatures.
(64)._____. It has interfered with their food sources; has changed their habitats by changing the temperature and chemical composition of large parts of the world environment; has destroyed their ecosystems by introducing foreign species, has reduced the number of living species; and changed the breeding (养殖 ) style of certain plants and animals by selective breeding and more recently by genetic engineering.
(65).____.
(A)From the standpoint of other species, the human presence has reduced the amount of the earth's surface available to them by clearing large areas of vegetation.
(B).It is not only large technologies—nuclear reactors or agriculture—that tend to have side effects, but also the small, everyday ones. The effects of ordinary technologies may be individually small but collectively significant.
(C).What the future holds for life on earth will be determined largely by the human species. The same intelligence that got us where we are—improving many ways for human beings to live on and introducing new dangers into the world—is also our main resource for survival.
(D).Our vast mining and producing efforts produce our goods, but they also dangerously pollute our rivers and oceans, soil, and atmosphere.
(E).We have developed the way to control over most plant and animal species—far more than any other species can—and the way to shape the future rather than merely respond to it.
(F).On the other hand, the very behavior that made it possible for the human species to prosper so rapidly has put us and the earth's other living things at new kinds of risk.

Should students be allowed to carry cellphones
Wired News reports on current attempts by parents groups and policymakers to force New York City schools to allow students to carry cellphones. The schools have long banned(禁止)mobile phones as a public nuisance (有害的东西),but critics argue that cellphones are an important lifeline between children and parents.
“Quite simply, this is a safety issue,” said City Councilwoman Letitia James, “It’s a safety issue that we have to resolve.”
“We don’t need to have kids go off and look at entertainment and do other things during the class,” mayor Bloomberg said on his weekly radio show, “And we just don’t have the ability to check the phones at the door. So I don’t have any easy solutions for parents who want their children to have cellphones before school and after school.”
Where do readers stand on this debate Are cellphones a nuisance or a necessity Or perhaps just a necessary evil Sound off and share your thoughts.
