The Olympic Games is always a big 36 but when the Games returned to its birthplace in Athens, 37 , in 2004, there was even more excitement 38 usual. This explains 39 the city was packed with more journalists than sportsmen, all of them competing, not for medals, but for the best pictures and the most news worthy stories.

For example,when the Chinese team won a record-high of 62 medals, the Chinese 41 recorded China’s reaction as one of “pleasant surprises”. On the other side of the world, journalists wrote about people’s “stunned”(目瞪口呆) 42 to China’s success.
43 it came to the reasons behind China’s 44 , the Xinhua Agency said it was the fruit of “years of effort”. The Observer, a UK magazine, 45 , put China’ success down to “the vast sum of money” that the Chinese government had put into creating medal winners. “They have 46 ; they have people; they have pride; and what they don’t have, they can either copy to perfection 47 just buy.” Wrote Tracey Holmes for CNN.
Some journalists 48 China as a “sports tsar(沙皇)”--- a country to be 49 by the traditional sports super—states like the US---and Filip Bondy of NBC Sports wrote, “The joke in Athens is that there is no reason to 50 at the Beijing Olympics in 2008 because there will be no medals 51 --- even the medal stands are being built to 52 the locals.” And the Chinese reports? The media remained 53 . “China will perform even better in the Beijing Games 54 isn’t ready to compete with the United States for the top place,” wrote China Daily. We’ll just have to wait and 55 .

A
Can you remember any of the bad habits you used to have when you were very young? Perhaps, as a baby, you used to suck your thumb(拇指). Of course, you do not do that any more, but you can surely remember your mother’s efforts to train you. The good habits you now have in such matters as personal cleanliness were part of this early training.
We may not suck our thumbs any more, but as we get older we get other bad habits. We can’t give them up easily, either.Anyone who has tried to give up smoking or gambling knows this very well! Each period brings its own problems. In babyhood, it’s thumb-sucking; in childhood, it’s nail-biting; in our teens, it’s smoking; in middle-age, it’s over-eating, and so on. And if anyone tells you that he has no bad habits, you can be sure that he must have the worst habit of all.
56. Generally speaking, a child likes ______.
A. sucking thumbs B. biting nails C. smoking D. eating too much
57. According to the passage, now we have good habits such as personal cleanliness, for which we benefit from _______.
A. the social conditions B. some strict rules
C. our friends’ kind help D. our mothers’ early training
58. At the end of the text, the worst habit refers to ____________.
A. Reading. B. Playing. C. Walking. D. Lying.
59. Which of the following is NOT true to the passage?
A. It is very difficult to get rid of our habits.
B. At different ages people have different bad habits.
C. Sucking thumbs is a young child’s bad habit.
D. Giving up smoking is as difficult as giving up other bad habits.
B
On April 25th we observe World Malaria Day to highlight the global effort to effectively control this terrible, yet largely preventable and treatable illness.
Malaria is caused by a parasite called Plasmodium, which is transmitted through the bite of an infected female mosquito. Once it enters the body, the parasite multiplies in the liver, and then infects red blood cells, causing fever, severe headache and other symptoms. In some cases, the disease can progress to coma, and eventually death.
About half of the world's population, nearly 3.4 billion people, is at risk for malaria, primarily those living in developing countries. In 2012, 207 million people became infected with the disease, and 627,000 of them died, 482,000 of whom were children. Most of these deaths could have been prevented.
Still, the news is good and the situation is improving. According to the World Health Organization’s 2013 World Malaria Report, global efforts against malaria have saved some 3.3 million lives since 2000, and reduced malaria mortality rates by 49 percent in Africa, and 45 percent globally.
The news is even better for children — the rate of malaria mortality among kids under the age of five is down 51 percent. In 2012, for the first time, fewer than 500,000 children died of malaria.?
Yet more needs to be done. To help fund the fight against Malaria, President Barack Obama announced last December that the United States will provide one dollar for every two dollars contributed by the rest of the world to the Global Fund to Fight HIV, TB, and Malaria, up to $5 billion by 2016.?
60. On April 25th we observe World Malaria Day______________.
to celebrate our effective control over the disease.
to praise the doctors and nurses.
because we can totally prevent the disease.
because we lost many lives.
61. The right order of the process of the disease is_____________.
patients have a fever or headache.
b. the parasite multiplies in the liver
patients end in a coma or even death.
d. bitten by an infected female mosquito.
A. a-b-c-d B. b- a-d-c C. d-b-a-c D. d-b-c-a
62. According to the World Health Organization’s 2013 World Malaria Report_____________.
the situation is not getting better.
B. global efforts have saved 3.3 million lives ever since.
global efforts reduced malaria mortality rates by 45 percent in the world.
more than half of children patients died of malaria.
63. Which of the following is NOT right?
About half of the world's population is at risk for malaria.
Most of the deaths of malmria patients were children.
The U.S will spend more money fighting malaria.
All of the deaths could have been prevented.
C
Asvertisements can be seen everywhere in this modern world. It is estimated that Americans view an average of 1,500 ads every day! With the rapid economic growth in China, you can expect a number doubling that in the near future.
If you think you know all the ad tricks in the book and will never be talked into buying something you don’t really want, wait till you finish reading this article.
While “hard-sell” ads are easy to detect---such as those with cheerful Olympic champions or film stars holding products and feeding you reasons why they are bargins---we are less clever when faced with “soft-sell” methods. The most common technique of this kind is to make customers think there is an immediate need to buy the product. So next time you see words like hurry, act now, last chance, now or never etc./ think twice. Most of the chances aren’t as short-lived as they seem to be.
Is that the only type of soft-sell advertising? Of course not. Soft-sell advertising includes give-away samples and concert sponsorships.
Different types of advertising work in different places and fo different products. “There’s never a one-size-fits-all technique. It has to be tailor-made for each situation,” says Gillian Greene, Creative Director of CheesyBee, an advertising company in London.
Other than speaking directly to customers, some ads are also made for investors and shop owners. Why? Because when the investors see the expensive, well-made ads, they believe that the company is running a good business. Then they’re happy to invest more money in it, even though the ad itself does not appeal to anyone in the street. In the same way, shop owners prefer to stock well—advertised goods because they know that customers are more likely to buy them.
Therfore, advertising can help sell goods even when it’s not directed at the customers. Ads work in every stage of a business, and that perhaps is the best ad for the industry itself.
64. What is this article mainly about?
It is easy to be influenced by ads.
It is not hard to run a good advertising business.
Advertising helps make money.
Advertising helps industries grow.
65. The “soft-sell” technique mentioned in paragraph 3 refers to__________.
Products that are real bargains.
Short-lived ads.
Misleading words that appear in ads.
Images of Olympic champions.
66. Which of the following is true according to the article?
“Soft-selling” methods are easy to detect.
All ads are not speaking directly to customers.
Tailors are needed in making ads.
Customers should always think of buying goods in a hurry.
67. What can we conclude from the article?
If we are careful, we can avoid ads.
Expensive ads are more attractive.
Customers will buy well-advertised goods.
Ads are powerful in our daily life.

Anthony Earnshaw?(9 October 1924 – 17 August 2001) was an English artist, author, and illustrator.
Earnshaw was born in?Ilkley, West Yorkshire. His father, a watchmaker and jeweller, died before he was born. His mother ran the family shop until bankruptcy in 1930, when they moved first to?Redcar?and then to?Leeds. There, Earnshaw attended?Harehills?School until the age of 14.
He worked as an engineering fitter, later as a lathe turner(车床工) and a crane driver, while educating himself at the city library. At 20 he became interested in?surrealism（超现实主义）?and, with his lifelong friend?Eric Thacker, devised surreal activities such as boarding and alighting from trains at random. In the early 1960s he met several like-minded people, including?Patrick Hughes,?Ian Breakwell?and?Glen Baxter.
He began teaching part-time, first at the?Harrogate?School of Art, then?Bradford?Art School before leaving engineering altogether in 1972 to take up a fellowship at Leeds Polytechnic. He left in 1985 to concentrate on art.
In 1968 he collaborated （合作）with Thacker on an illustrated novel,?Musrum, which - although not particularly successful commercially - became a cult classic. The book was a fantasy, peppered with aphorisms (格言，警句), and told the story of the title character's kingdom and of his battle with the ill Weedking. It was followed in 1971 by a sequel,?Wintersol, about the secret criminal nature of?Father Christmas. Both books were praised for their elegant writing, wit and wordplay, and especially for their sheer invention.
Later publications included a cartoon in the?Times Educational Supplement, a wheeled bird named?Wokker, and books of aphorisms, the largest being Flick Knives and Forks?in 1982. In the 1980s and 1990s Earnshaw began making art boxes, further exemplifying his surrealist bent.
Earnshaw died in 2001, survived by his second wife, Gail, and by two daughters from his first marriage.
72. Earnshaw’s family moved first to?Redcar?and then to?Leeds because____________.
his father died
his mother wanted to run a family shop
C. his mother’s shop did not bring in enough money.
D. his father’s shop did not bring in enough money
73. Who has similar idea with Earnshaw?
Eric Thacker B. ?Patrick Hughes C. Glen Baxter D. all of them

第一节：任务型阅读 (10分)
请认真阅读下列短文，并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填入一个最恰当的单词。注意：每个空格只填1个单词。
Living a quality, healthy lifestyle is very important. Follow these tips to stay on a healthy path while in high school.
Get plenty of sleep. With homework, teens in high school often stay up late and rise early. To fun_ction properly, your body and mind need at least eight hours of sleep each night. Go to bed early enough to get your full sleep requirement, and lower the curtain, turn off the television or radio and unplug the phone to prevent your sleep from being disturbed.
Eat a well-balanced diet. Teens are well-known for living on a diet of junk food. Drink plenty of water and eat fresh fruits and vegetables daily. If you mainly eat nutritious foods, eating some fast food once in a while won’t hurt you.
Say no to cigarettes and alcohol. Besides being illegal, something in cigarettes and a large amount of alcohol can have a bad influence on your physical and mental health. Lifelong habits start during high school years, so make sure the habits you are forming are good ones.
Exercise regularly. Physical activities help build a strong body and mind. Teens who exercise throughout high school benefit from a healthy body and a mind with less stress.
Trust your friends and family. High school can be filled with anxiety and emotional pain. A healthy teen will find someone to talk with about his or her problems rather than dealing with them alone or not dealing with them at all. If you can’t trust your parents, depend on your friends and teachers when you are upset or stressed out.

Dear Hanlei,
Recently I have heard that you want to find a part-time job during the coming summer holiday. I have the same idea as you do.
By doing a short-time job in the holiday, we can improve our ability in communicating with others, learn more about our society and develop confidence about ourselves. Besides, we can earn some money to buy something we love like books or some presents for our parents and friends.
However, safety is the first thing to consider. We should not do dangerous jobs. And we should take care not to overwork because we are not strong enough. Also we need to balance the time of work and study as we are still high school students, so we should spend some time doing homework.
That’s why I write to you. I hope to join you and find a job we love doing.
Best wishes!
Yours Liming
