For most, getting a car opens up a new world of freedom and allows you to go wherever you want. Getting a car did 31 this for me, and it also brought my best friend and me 32 . But then it tore us apart (分开).
My best friend lives three minutes from my 33 . Since her 34 is in late summer, seven months behind mine, I seemed to become her 35 when I turned 16 in December.
And so I 36 her up for school and took her home. We made ice-cream 37 , went shopping and to the movies―all in my car. I would drive to her house just to sit on her bed, read magazines and have a good laugh. I went to her house so 38 that she gave me a key 39 her house.
A week after I began to drive, she was with me 40 I had my first accident. She was there and 41 me and we kept it a 42 , since I didn’t want people to 43 . From then on, through thick and thin (患难与共), it was just me, my car and my best friend.

52.The passage is most probably taken from _________.
A.a magazine B.a newspaper C.a travel book D.a website
?B
Have you ever noticed what happens to an idea once you express it? Just talking about it or writing it down causes you to make it clear in your own mind. How can you use this to increase your brain power? Start writing.
By putting thoughts into words, you are telling yourself the logic behind what you think, feel, or only partly understand. Often, explaining a thought is the process of understanding. In other words, you increase your brain power by exercising your “explain power.”
Another benefit of writing is that it helps you remember. Many, if not most, highly productive people are always taking notes. You can try keeping it all in your head, but if you keep a journal of your ideas the next time you’re working on a big project, you’ll probably have more success.
Want to understand a topic? Write a book about it. That’s an extreme example, but if you are learning something new, write a letter to a friend about it, and you will understand it better. Want to invent something? Write an explanation of the problem—why you want to solve it, and why it is worth solving, and you’re half-way there.
Writers don’t always write because they clearly understand something beforehand. Often, they write about something because they want to understand it. You can do the same. Writing will help bring you to an understanding. Give it a try.
53.What would be the best title for the passage?
A.Way on How to Write
B.Increase Your Brain Power Through Writing
C.Brain Power Helps Improve Your Writing
D.How to Start your Writing

As a saying goes, “If you have a good friend, your joys are doubled and your sorrows are halved.” Friends are a helping hand, a comforting shoulder to lean on, a patient ear to listen to you and most importantly, a warm and loving hug to embrace(拥抱)you. Man is a social animal by nature. We all need friends, as they are there for us when we need support, just as we are there for them whenever they need us. Therefore, it is necessary for you to know how to make friends.
The first step is to open yourself up. If you want to make good friends, you should be able to share your thoughts and feelings with other people first. Only when you share something of yourself with others, can you begin making friends. When your friends open a conversation with you, they are usually expecting you to share information in return. That is to say, when you are in a conversation, you’d better express your own thoughts and feelings. If a conversation is one-sided, the person doing all the talking may think the other person is not interested in what he is saying. So, when talking with your friends, be sure that the conversation is a two-way street.
One of the most important keys to building a solid friendship with other people is to listen to them — really listen. When your friends tell you something that happened to them or complain(埋怨)about a situation, they are usually not looking for agreement but just want to be heard. So don’t try to change their mind or solve their problems. Just let them know that you are listening to them.
Respecting your friends is also important to keep your relationships healthy and strong. Looking at your friends while they are talking to you is one way to show your respect, as they will feel that what they are saying is important to you.
Unconditional support and encouragement is one of the things which friends have. True friendship means offering a shoulder when they need it, crying with them when they are sad, and laughing with them when they are happy. Only in this way, can the tree of friendship last for a long time.

25. B【解析】考查分词作状语。句意:一旦完成家庭作业,他就去打篮球。
26. A【解析】考查定语从句。分析句子结构并结合句意可知,此处为非限制性定语从句,应选in which case,表示"在这种情况下"。

30. B【解析】考查定语从句。句意:-你在哪找到我昨天丢失的钱包?-那正是在我们打篮球的操场上(找到的)。此处that引导定语从句。

As the nights get lounger, those who suffer from the winter blues will be planning ways to escape to the sunshine. But there may be a much simpler way of cheering yourself up... simply shining a bright light into your ear canal.
Up to one in four Britons suffer from seasonal affective disorder, with seven per cent of the population having full-blown SAD. It is caused by the brain not receiving enough daylight which is needed to trigger serotonin(血清素), a hormone(荷尔蒙) that regulates mood. Symptoms range from mild lethargy?(乏力)to depression and insomnia, but a cure might be in sight.
Two clinical trials, run by Valkee - who make a device that can shine light into your ear - and the University of Oulu in Finland, have found that carefully targeted light can help prevent the condition.
Juuso Nissil?, Valkee's co-founder and chief scientist said: “We presented earlier that the human brain is sensitive to light”. “These two clinical trials demonstrate that channeling bright light via ear canal into brain's photosensitive areas effectively prevents and treats seasonal affective disorder.”
The University of Oulu reported that in their first study, 92 per cent of the patients with seasonal affective disorder achieved full remission(缓解) after a month of daily eight-to-12 minute doses(剂量) of light from the Valkee.
Timo Takala, chief physician(医生) at the Oulu Deaconess Institute said: “These two trials show that bright light channeled into the brain via ear canal is an important future method to treat seasonal affective disorder.”
Valkee launched(发行) its bright light headset in August 2010. It is classed as a medical device under EU regulations.
The device channels bright light direct to the brain via the ear canal to prevent and cure depression, mood swings(摇摆) and even circadian-rhythm disorders(昼夜节律失调)?such as jet lag(时差感).
It costs £185 and looks like an iPod - only the earphones emit light
rather than sound.
Anyone wanting to copy the effects with a flashlight is likely to be disappointed, it emits the wrong kind of light that is apparently too yellow.
38.What can be inferred from the first two paragraphs?
A. Light as well as sound is essential for curing SAD.
B. Receiving enough daylight makes for a good mood.
C. There’s a long way to go for curing SAD thoroughly.
D. The number of Britons having SAD continues growing.
39. which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
A.Shinning a bright light into your ear canal is the only way to treat SAD
B.The device can help one to recover from all physical problems.
C.You might not suffer from jet lag if you wear a bright light headset.
D.A flashlight can work exactly as the bright light headset.
40.What can be the best title of the passage?
A.Shine a light in your ear — brighten your mood in winter
B.Keep the sunshine in your heart — enjoy a colorful life
C.The most efficient way to prevent and cure SAD
D.The harmful effects caused by SAD
C
When asked about happiness, we usually think of something extraordinary, an absolute delight, which seems to get rarer the older we get.?
For kids, happiness has a magical quality. Their delight at winning a race or getting a new bike is unreserved(毫无掩饰的).
In the teenage years the concept of happiness changes. Suddenly it’s conditional on such things as excitement, love and popularity. I can still recall the excitement of being invited to dance with the most attractive boy at the school party.
In adulthood the things that bring deep joy—love, marriage, birth—also bring responsibility and the risk of loss. For adults, happiness is complicated(复杂的).
My definition of happiness is“the capacity for enjoyment”. The more we can enjoy what we have, the happier we are. It’s easy to overlook the pleasure we get from the company of friends, the freedom to live where we please, and even good health.
I experienced my little moments of pleasure yesterday. First I was overjoyed when I shut the last lunch-box and had the house to myself. Then I spent an uninterrupted morning writing, which I love. When the kids and my husband came home, I enjoyed their noise after the quiet of the day.
Psychologists tell us that to be happy we need a mix of enjoyable leisure time and satisfying work. I don’t think that my grandmother, who raised 14 children, had much of either. She did have a network of close friends and family, and maybe this is what satisfied her.
We, however, with so many choices and such pressure to succeed in every area, have turned happiness into one more thing we’ve got to have. We’re so self-conscious about our“right”to it that it’s making us miserable. So we chase it and equal it with wealth and success, without noticing that the people who have those things aren’t necessarily
happier.
Happiness isn’t about what happens to us—it’s about how we see what happens to
us. It’s the skillful way of finding a positive for every negative. It’s not wishing for what we don’t have, but enjoying what we do possess.?
41.As people grow older,they .
A.feel it harder to experience happiness
B.associate their happiness less with others
C.will take fewer risks in pursuing happiness
D.tend to believe responsibility means happiness
42.What can we learn about the author from Paragraphs 5 and 6?
A.She cares little about her own health.
B.She enjoys the freedom of traveling.
C.She is easily pleased by things in daily life.
D.She prefers getting pleasure from housework.
43.What can be inferred from Paragraph 7?
A.Psychologists think satisfying work is key to happiness.
B.Psychologists’ opinion is well proved by Grandma’s case.
C.Grandma often found time for social gatherings.
D.Grandma’s happiness came from modest expectations of life.
44.People who equal happiness with wealth and success .
A.consider pressure something blocking their way
B.stress their right to happiness too much
C.are at a loss to make correct choices
D.are more likely to be happy
45.What can be concluded from the passage?
A.Happiness lies between the positive and the negative.
B.Each man is the master of his own fate.
C.Success leads to happiness.
D.Happy is he who is content.
D
Most teens can't wait to learn to drive. Not so with me. Driving made me nervous. I didn't get a license until I turned 24 years old. As a result, when I first married, we only had one car and car pooled to work. My husband's hours were different from mine by one hour. I worked earlier. So he dropped me off and went to the diner to drink coffee until work time.? Then, in the afternoons, I leisurely walked the three miles to his work place where I waited in his car, reading a book.? One day while waiting for him, I noticed the most beautiful Cadillac pull in the lot. It was powder blue and sleek looking. The kind of car you dream about. I was busily admiring the car,when I noticed the driver. Honestly, she was probably the prettiest woman I had ever seen off the movie screen.?She pulled into the spot beside our car and it was all I could do not to stare. There was a striking resemblance to Liz Taylor. Jet black hair and alabaster skin. Our eyes made
contact and she smiled at me. Her eyes were as blue as the sea, and teeth like an even row of pearls. She was wearing a light blue shirt that just matched her car. Peeking through her long, softly curled hair I could see gold hoop earrings. They had to be gold to shine like that. A couple of minutes later, a nice looking man came out of the building, entered her car, leaned over and kissed her and she drove away.? Sitting there in my jeans, shirt and hair in a pony tail, I wanted to cry. How could some people have it all?? Maybe I would have forgotten about her, but the following week, I saw her again. Then it became almost routine to see her about once a week. She seemed friendly and always waved, flashing a big smile. My envy lingered long after she drove away.? Many nights when sleep evaded me, I would think about the beautiful lady. I wondered if she and her husband ate out, and where they dined, and what she was wearing. I wanted her to get out of the car and let me see her full length. Did she wear really high heeled shoes and pants, or a skirt.? I would get my answers in a couple of weeks.? Sitting in our usual parking lot, I was holding my book, watching her over the top of it. She was waiting and when her husband came to the car, she called to him. They spoke a few words and he opened the car door for her to step out. He took her arm and helped her out of the car. I could see very well as she moved to get out. She was wearing a skirt.? She?haltingly?walked around to the passenger side very slowly, leaning on a walking cane. Sitting sideways in the car, she lifted one leg with her hands and then the other one. The beautiful lady had a prosthesis on the left leg and a brace on the right leg. I couldn't watch them drive away as the tears were blinding me. For weeks I had envied this woman and her way of life, while I had been able to walk three miles to our car!? When my husband arrived and found me crying, he immediately asked what was wrong. Through my tears, I told him about the beautiful lady. He said he knew her husband and also knew the story. The beautiful lady and her parents were in a car that either stalled or got caught on the railroad tracks and was hit by a train. Both parents were killed and she was severely injured. She was only 12 years old. The railroad made a large settlement with her because the crossing had no signals. He explained her car was specially built for her needs as well as the home.?I prayed for forgiveness all the way home. The lady I thought had everything I didn't. I realized how lucky I was to have my parents, the ability to walk, run or dance through life and many wonderful things money can't buy. I would not have traded places with the beautiful lady for anything?When you meet a person who seems to be much better off than you, don't be fooled.?46. In the afternoons the woman walked three miles to her husband’s work place to___.
A. take exercise on the way B.meet the beautiful lady.
C. enjoy the scenery and reading D.wait for her husband
47. After seeing the beautiful lady, the woman concluded_______.
A. the beautiful lady led a rich and happy life.
B. the beautiful lady liked to show off herself.
C. she and her husband must make more money.

第四部分 任务型阅读
Culture Differences Are More Complicated(复杂)than What Country You’re From
As part of doing business globally and operating across cultures, we often read a book, an article, or a blog post about cultural differences for preparation. But we’re often surprised to discover that the person in question act in a completely different way from what we expected.The problem comes from the questions we ask ourselves. The obvious one?is “What culture does this person come from?”
But thinking that national cultural differences are?all?that matters is a mistake. Culture isn’t everything. It turns out that if we ask ourselves a better, more focused set of questions, we’ll be far more successful at anticipating how people will act and preparing ourselves for these differences.
Question 1: What do you know about the region??
Just as it is useful to learn something about culture?norms when diagnosing your situation, it is good practice to learn something about region?norms. For example, if you were doing business in the United States and assumed that people from the Northeast would be quite similar to people from the South or from the Midwest, you might find yourself surprised. Similarly, you’d be misguided if you assumed that Southern and Northern Italy are?identical(相同的) or that people from rural (农村))and urban (城市)areas of China tend to act in similar ways.
Question 2: What?do?you know?about the?company or?industry??
Like countries and regions, companies and industries also have their unique cultures. How you would interact with a?boss at Google is quite different from?how you would interact with a?boss at Microsoft or Intel. Meetings at traditional, bureaucratic organizations are often run quite differently from?meetings at small start-ups. Norms for behavior in the advertising industry are quite different from norms for behavior in the agricultural industry, and so on.
Question 3: What?do you know?about the?people??
Finally, ask yourself what you know, or what you might be able to find out, about the people you are interacting with. Are you communicating with a 60-year-old senior executive or a 20-something manager? People who are older are often more likely to reflect the norms of the overall society. It would also be useful to know if the people you are interacting with are?locals, born and raised in that particular setting and without extensive travel experience. Locals are much more likely to reflect the norms of the immediate region you are in.
Finding the answers to these questions before you cross cultures can be rewarding(有回报的).And doing your homework before entering a new culture is one of the keys for success. But if you don’t ask the right questions, you might end up mistakenly overlooking the real differences that matter.
Cultural Differences Are More Complicated than What Country You’re Form
Introduction
While we take (51)_______for global business and operations across cultures,we will discover that people’s behaviors or action are beyond(52)__________.
(53)___________
What do you know about the region?
It is of great(54)_________to get a good knowledge of culture norms.For example,you will be (55)_________to find people from Northest are quite(56)________from people from the South or from the Midwest.
What do you know about the company or industry?
Countries and regions have unique cultures,and (57)______do companies and industries.The (58)________you interact with a boss at Google is not the same as one at Microsoft.
What do you know about the people?
The people you are interesting with(59)_______a very important part in understanding the cultural differences.Locals are much more likely to reflect the norms of the immediate region you are in.
Conclusion
It is helpful for you to find the answers to these questions before you cross cultures.But(60)_______you ask the right questions,you might end up mistakenly overlooking the real differences that matter.

【文章大意】本文经过对旅游景点的介绍,指导你选择好你一天的旅行。36. D【解析】推理判断题。根据每一部分的价格介绍:Tour A到3月17日为37英镑,Tour B为36英镑,Tour C为37英镑,Tour D为33英镑,故此选D。37. A【解析】推理判断题。根据Hampton was once the home of four Kings and one Queen判断答案为A。
38. B【解析】考查推理判断。根据第二段中的"Up to one in four Britons suffers from seasonal affective disorder(SAD)...It is caused by the brain not receiving enough daylight which is needed to produce serotonin, a hormone that regulates moods"可知,如果大脑未接收到足够的阳光,这会影响身体产生一种能够调节情绪的荷尔蒙,进而引起季节性情感障碍,故可推知,充足的阳光会促成愉快的心情,故B项正确。
39.C 【解析】考查细节理解。根据倒数第三段“The device channels bright light direct to the brain via the ear canal to prevent and cure depression, mood swings(摇摆) and even circadian-rhythm disorders(昼夜节律失调)?such as jet lag(时差感).”可知C项正确。
40.A【解析】考查主旨要义。通读全文可知,文章主要介绍了一项新的研究发现:将一束亮光射进耳道就能让人们的心情好起来。故A项作文章标题最为贴切。考生易误选C项。文章倒数第三段确实提及这种将光射入耳道的装置会帮助人们预防和治愈一些疾病,但并未说明这种方法是"最有效的(most efficient)",故可排除。
【文章大意】不同年龄阶段的人对快乐幸福的定义不同,在作者看来快乐就是多看事物积极的一面,以及知足常乐,只有这样才会幸福快乐。?
41. A【解析】细节理解题。根据第一段可知,人年龄越大,快乐幸福感越少,也就越难体验到快乐,故选A。
42. C【解析】推理判断题。第六段描述了作者感到快乐的事情,比如做完家务,独自享受安静,静静写作,享受与老公孩子在一起,从这些点不难看出作者很容易在日常生活中体验到快乐,这一点正好是第五段说的作者对快乐的理解“the capacity for enjoyment”,故选C。
43. D【解析】推理判断题。心理学家认为快乐源于有一些休闲时间和有令人满意的工作,而作者奶奶的快乐却仅仅源于家人的和睦和与朋友的友谊,因此选D。
44. B【解析】细节理解题。倒数第二段第二句提到“我们太在意自己对幸福权的拥有,这会让我们感到痛苦”,故选B。A,C项文章并没有提及;倒数第二段最后一句说的是把财富和成功与快乐等同的人不一定更幸福,故D项不对。
45. D【解析】主旨大意题。文中作者提到My definition of happiness is“the capacity for enjoyment”,由此可见快乐是指“有享受快乐的能力”,与D表达的意思相符。A的意思是快乐处于积极与消极之间;B的意思是每个人都是自己命运的主人;C的意思是成功会带来快乐。
【文章大意】作者在每天去等丈夫的时候总会碰到一个美丽优雅,穿着讲究,开着豪车的女士。相比之下,作者感到生活对自己的不公平,但是在知道了这位女士的残疾和经历后,作者顿时为自己曾经产生过的想法而感到惭愧。从这件事作者得到的人生感悟是:凡事不要被表象所蒙蔽。46. D【解析】细节理解题。根据文章第二段内容I leisurely walked the three miles to his work place where I waited in his car, reading a book.可知她步行去丈夫工作场所为的是等她丈夫下班,选D。47. A【解析】细节理解题。当作者一次次看到漂亮优雅的女士后总是不由自主地去想象她的生活,而且根据文中My envy lingered long after she drove away.和For weeks I had envied this woman and her way of life, while I had been able to walk three miles to our car!可知作者对她充满了嫉妒,由此判断作者认为这个漂亮的女士过着幸福富裕的生活,答案选A。48. A【解析】细节理解题。在文章倒数第二段作者意识到了自己和那位女士相比是多么的幸运,不仅有家人的陪伴,而且拥有健康的身体,还有好多金钱买不到的东西,这些都是自己不会和那位女士交换的,由此可知她意识到了家人和健康的重要性,故答案选A。49. C【解析】词义猜测题。A骄傲地;B兴奋地;C困难地;D稳定地。根据文章倒数第四段内容The beautiful lady had a prosthesis on the left leg and a brace on the right leg.可知这位女士左腿安装着假肢而且右腿还有支架,由此判断她走路是费劲的,故答案选C。50. C【解析】主旨大意题。在故事中作者因一位女士的优雅美丽和拥有的豪车而暗自嫉妒,但是后来知道了她的残疾和经历后,作者为自己曾经产生过的想法而感到惭愧,对人生也有了更深的感悟,最后在文章末段提出When you meet a person who seems to be much better off than you, don't be fooled.,由此可知C选项内容能反应文章中心,可以做标题使用,故答案选C。

参考范文
Dear Jack,
After reading your letter, I know that After reading your letter, I know that you are now in low spirits because your school football team has been unlucky to lose an important match and miss the chance to win the championship. You have every right to feel ashamed of the disappointing result. However, you should know that winning isn‘t everything. Actually, in defeat, you can still find something more precious than victory, such as friendship, team spirit and respect. After all, the meaning of a game, in its real sense, lies in the pleasure its process brings, rather than the stress its result gives. So, right now, the most important thing you should do is to learn the lesson from this failure, which will help you achieve success in the games to come. Besides, don‘t lose heart. Confidence also plays an important role in a game.
If my suggestions above may help you, I think you and your football team will win more victories in the future.
Yours truly,
Li Hua
