II 完形填空
I consider myself something of an expert on apologies. A quick temper(脾气) has 31 me with plenty of opportunities to make them. In one of my earliest 32 , my mother is telling me, “Don’t watch the 33 when you say ‘I’m sorry’. Hold your head up and look the person in the 34 , so he’ll know you 35 it.”
My mother thus made the key point of a(n) 36 apology: it must be direct. You must never 37 to be doing something else. You do not 38 a pile of letters while apologizing to a person 39 in position after blaming him or her for a mistake that turned out to be your 40 . You do not apologize to a hostess, whose guest of honor you treat 41 , by sending flowers the next day without mentioning your bad 42 .
One of the important things you should do for an 43 apology is readiness to 44 the responsibility for our careless mistakes. We are used to making excuses, which leaves no 45 for the other person to 46 us. Since most people are open-hearted, the no-excuse apology leaves both parties feeling 47 about themselves. That, after all, is the 48 of every apology. It 49 little whether the apologizer is wholly or only partly at fault: answering for one’s 50 encourages others to take their share of the blame.
31. A. provided B. mixed C. compared D. treated
32. A. dreams B. courses C. memories D. ideas
33. A. side B. ground C. wall D. bottom
34. A. mind B. soul C. face D. eye
35. A. imagine B. enjoy C. mean D. regret
36. A. useful B. successful C. equal D. basic
37. A. pretend B. forget C. refuse D. expect
38. A. hold on B. put away C. look through D. pick up
39. A. poorer B. weaker C. worse D. lower
40. A. fault B. reason C. result D. duty
41. A. cruelly B. freely C. roughly D. foolishly
42. A. manners B. excuses C. efforts D. roles
43. A. active B. effective C. extra D. easy
44. A. raise B. perform C. admit D. bear
45. A. situation B. need C. sign D. room
46. A. advise B. forgive C. warn D. blame
47. A. wiser B. warmer C. better D. cleverer
48. A. purpose B. method C. end D. advantage
49. A. cares B. matters C. depends D. remains
50. A. facts B. states C. rights D. actions

Do you want to improve the way you study Do you feel nervous before a test Many students say that a lack of concentration is their biggest problem. It seriously affects their ability to study, so do their test results.
If so, use these tips to help you.
Study Techniques
You should always study in the same place. You shouldn’t sit in a position that you use for another purpose. For example, when you sit on a sofa to study, your brain will think it is time to relax. Don’t watch TV while you are studying. Experts warn that your concentration may be reduced by 50 percent if you attempt to study in this way. Always try to have a white wall in front of you, so there is nothing to distract (make less concentrated) you. Before sitting down to study, gather together all the equipment you need. Apart from your textbooks, pens, pencils and knives, make sure you have a dictionary. If your study desk or table is needed when you are not studying, store all your equipment in a box beside it.
Your eyes will become tired if you try to read a text which is on a flat surface. Position your book at an angle of 30 degrees.
Be realistic and don’t try to complete too much in one study period. Finish one thing before beginning another. If you need a break, get up and walk around for a few minutes, but try not to telephone a friend or have something to eat.
Test-taking Skills
All your hard work will be for nothing if you are too nervous to take your test. Getting plenty of rest is very important. This means do not study all night before your test! It is a better idea to have a long-term study plan. Try to make a timetable for your study which lasts for a few months.
Exercise is a great way to reduce pressure. Doing some form of exercise every day will also improve your concentration. Eat healthy food too.
When you arrive in the examination room, find your seat and sit down. Breathe slowly and deeply. Check the time on the clock during the test, but not too often. Above all, take no notice of everyone else and give the test paper your undivided attention.
51. Which of the following statements is true according to the passage
A. You should study in a different place every day, so you don’t get bored.
B. Your concentration will improve if you study and watch TV at the same time.
C. Check the time during the exam at a certain time.
D. Staying up all night and studying is tiring, but you will learn a lot using this method.
52. What does the underlined word “it” refer to
A. Your study desk or table. B. Your textbook.
C. Your dictionary. D. The equipment you need.
53. Which is true according to the passage
A. You can sometimes look at everyone else during the test.
B. Only by eating healthy diet will you have enough energy to deal with your study and exams.
C. You’ll concentrate more if there is nothing to distract you.
D. If you feel tired during the test, you can walk around for a few minutes.
B
Believe it or not, optical illusion(错觉) can cut highway crashes.
Japan is a case in point. It has reduced automobile crashes on some roads by nearly 75 percent using a simple optical illusion. Bent stripes, called chevrons(人字形), painted on the roads make drivers think that they are driving faster than they really are, and thus drivers slow down.
Now the American Automobile Association Foundation for Traffic Safety in Washington D.C. is planning to repeat Japan’s success. Starting next year, the foundation will paint chevrons and other patterns of stripes on selected roads around the country to test how well the patterns reduce highway crashes.
Excessive(超过) speed plays a major role in as much as one fifth of all fatal traffic accidents, according to the foundation. To help reduce those accidents, the foundation will conduct its tests in areas where speed-related hazards (danger) are the greatest --- curves, exit slopes, traffic circles, and bridges.
Some studies suggest that straight, horizontal(水平) bars painted across roads can initially cut the average speed of drivers in half. However, traffic often returns to full speed within months as drivers become used to seeing the painted bars.
Chevrons, scientists say, not only give drivers the impression that they are driving faster than they really are but also make a lane appear to be narrower. The result is a longer lasting reduction in highway speed and the number of traffic accidents.
54. The passage mainly discusses_______.
A. a new way of highway speed control B. a new pattern for painting highways
C. a new way of training drivers D. a new type of optical illusion
55. On roads painted with chevrons, drivers tend to feel that _____
A. they should avoid speed-related hazards
B. they are driving in the wrong lane
C. they should slow down their speed
D. they are coming near to the speed limit
56. The advantage of chevrons over straight, horizontal bars is that the former _____.
A. can keep drivers awake B. can cut road accidents in half
C. will look more attractive D. will have a longer effect on driver
57. The American Automobile Association foundation for Traffic Safety plans to ____.
A. try out the Japanese method in certain areas
B. change the road signs across the country
C. replace straight, horizontal bars with chevrons
D. repeat the Japanese road patterns
58. What does the author say about straight, horizontal bars painted across roads
A. They are suitable only on broad roads.
B. They are falling out of use in the United States.
C. They tend to be ignored in a short period of time.
D. They cannot be used successfully to traffic circles.
C
Compared with the past, children today have much more freedom.
First of all, we should think about the fact that society itself has changed. People have started little by little to give up prejudices and have a modern way of seeing the reality around then. Therefore, children have begun to be more independent both in the middle of the family as well as when it comes to speak about their group of friends.
Then, let’s consider the fact that children have started to speak more freely to their parents about their lives. If their parents give them advice, they prefer not to take it into consideration because they say they know what to do and what is best for them. They buy expensive clothes, have cool hairstyles, like to go downtown until late hours and are naughty in attitude no matter who they approach.
On the other hand, parents give them money to buy whatever their children wish to buy, allow them to meet friends and go into discos or bars from an early age.
That’s why they accept and contribute somehow to their children’s behaviour. When children make mistakes and their parents punish them for a week at the most, the latter are the ones who finally decide to “make peace”. And what is the most interesting of all is the fact that the offspring(子女) doesn’t consider himself guilty of anything and blames his parents for not understanding his point of view.
Children adopt these attitudes as a result of the environment they live in and in accordance with the education they have been given. Of parents who don’t know how to manage in their education, they will have the surprise to have a rebellious child, who will always do whatever he thinks is the best for him. Parents will have nothing to say in different matters concerning the lives of their children and their decisions.
59. According to the second paragraph, children _____ as the society develops.
A. are suffering more prejudices B. are suffering more loneliness
C. are enjoying more independence D. are enjoying more civilization
60. The underlined sentence in the fifth paragraph probably mean _______.
A. the children are usually the ones to declare a war
B. the parents are usually the ones to declare a war
C. the children are usually the ones to try to end the war
D. the parents are usually the ones to try to end the war
61. Parents should partly be responsible for their children’s bad behavior because they ___.
A. have the same behavior
B. have helped develop their bad behavior
C. pay little attention to their children’s education
D. have incorrect opinion of the bad behavior
D
What do you see from a handful of seeds Some see green plants, some see blooming flowers, or just seeds. But one group of Shanghai students saw an opportu nity to make money.
Eight students from No 2 Secondary School Attached to East China Normal Uni versity started a virtual company selling different seeds and seed products. They successfully sold 28 pictures pasted with different seeds at a campus auction(拍卖) a week a go. The company, which has recruited around 20 student staff members, has earned over 2000 yuan in the past three months.
"We donated part of the money to a poor school in the countryside of Anhui Province. It's great to realize our ideal of ‘spreading love and culture with seeds’ after many tests and lots of hard work," said Senior 2 Shi Chen, CEO of the compa ny.
Just like any other company, Shi's didn't develop smoothly. Shi and her young colleagues used to sell fresh flowers and old books, and later found seeds might be something that their company could engage in. They bought seeds of various plants and flowers at low prices from a local farm and sold them in schools or on streets. The creative students also made accessories and pictures with different seeds.
With little business knowledge, the students had to learn new skills as the lead ers of different departments, such as public relations (PR), sales and marketing. They persuaded a joint Sino-French company near their school to give them training in business management. They also asked some local businessmen to act as their consul tants.
"They helped us overcome our shyness. We also learned quite a lot of business theory. I found communication skills and teamwork are very important for my job," said Senior 1 Qian Yifei.
The 16-year-old was elected as PR manager thanks to her gift for speaking. She is also in charge of after sales service, dealing with complaints and providing suggestions.
As the head of the company, CEO Shi has a lot more to think about. First of all, she has to learn how to make her colleagues work efficiently as the company only opens at weekends due to all their studies. So she established a system to evaluate every one's performance, in terms of punctuality, efficiency, profits knowledge and so on..
"It makes the company more formal," she said.

After giving a talk at a high school, I was asked to pay a visit to a spe cial student. An illness had kept the boy home, but he had expressed an interest in meeting me. I was told it would mean a great deal to him, so I agreed.
During the nine-mile drive to his home, I found out something about Matthew. He had muscular dystrophy (肌肉萎缩症). When he was born, the doctor told his parents that he would not live to five, and then they were told he would not make it to ten. Now he was thirteen. He wanted to meet me because I was a gold-medal power lifter, and I knew about overcoming obstacles and going for my dreams.
I spent over an hour talking to Matthew. Never once did he complain or ask, “Why me ” He spoke about winning and succeeding and going for his dreams. Obviously, he knew what he was talking about. He didn’t mention that his classmates had made fun of him because he was different. He just talked about his hopes for the future, and how one day he wanted to lift weights with me. When we had finished talking, I went to my briefcase and pulled out the first gold medal I had won and put it around his neck. I told him he was more of a winner and knew more about success and overcoming obstacles than I ever would. He looked at it for a moment, then took it off and handed it back to me. He said, “You are a champion. You earned that medal. Someday when I get to the Olympics and win my own medal, I will show it to you.”
Last summer I received a letter from Matthew’s parents telling me that Matthew had passed away. They wanted me to have a letter he had written to me a few days before:
Dear Dick,
My mum said I should send you a thank-you letter for the picture you sent me. I also want to let you know that the doctors tell me that I don’t have long to live any more, but I still smile as much as I can.
I told you someday that I would go to the Olympics and win a gold medal, but
I know now I will never get to do that. However, I know I’m a champion, and God knows that too. When I get to Heaven, God will give me my medal and when you get there, I will show it to you. Thank you for loving me.
Your friend,
Matthew

A. the boy never complained about how unlucky he was to have this disease
