Instead, he was shocked. “Madam,” he said, “we can’t put up a statue for every person who studied at Harvard and 9 .

We would like to give a 11 to Harvard.” The president rolled his eyes and 12 at the couple and then exclaimed, “A building! Do you have any idea how much a building costs? We have spent over $7 500 000 on the campus building at Harvard.” For a moment the lady was silent. The president was 13 , because he could get rid of them now. Then the lady turned to her husband and said quietly, “Is that all it costs to start a 14 ? Why don’t we just start our own?” Her husband nodded.

The other day I was at the airport waiting for a ticket to Washington and the girl in the ticket office said, “I’m sorry, I can’t sell you a ticket. Our computer is down.” ‎ ‎“If your computer is down, just write me out a ticket.” ‎ ‎ “I can’t write you out a ticket. The computer is the only one allowed to do so.” ‎ I looked down on the computer and every passenger was just standing there drinking coffee and staring at the black screen. Then I asked her, “What do all you people do?” ‎ ‎“We give the computer the information about your trip, and then it tells us whether you can fly with us or not.” ‎ ‎“So when it goes down, you go down with it.” ‎ ‎“That’s good, sir.” ‎ ‎“How long will the computer be down?” I wanted to know.‎ ‎“I have no idea. Sometimes it’s down for 10 minutes, sometimes for two hours. There’s no way we can find out without asking the computer, and since it’s down it won’t answer us.” ‎ After the girl told me they had no backup (备用) computer, I said. “Let’s forget ‎ the computer. What about your planes? They’re still flying, aren’t they?” ‎ ‎“I couldn’t tell without asking the computer.” ‎ ‎“Maybe I could just go to the gate and ask the pilot if he’s flying to Washington,” I suggested. ‎ ‎“I wouldn’t know what gate to send you to. Even if the pilot was going to Washington, he couldn’t take you if you didn’t have a ticket.” ‎ ‎“Is there any other airline flying to Washington within the next few hours?” ‎ ‎“I wouldn’t know,” she said, pointing at the dark screen. “Only ‘IT’ knows. ‘It’ can’t tell me.” ‎ By this time there were quite a few people standing in lines. The word soon spread to other travelers that the computer was down. Some people went white, some people started to cry and still others kicked their luggage.‎ ‎26.

No one knew each other; the passengers all sat there sleepily in the morning. The bus was cheerless and silent. ‎ One of the passengers was a small gray man who took the bus to the center for senior citizens every morning. No one ever paid very much attention to him. One July morning he said good morning to the driver and smiled. The driver nodded guardedly. The rest of us were silent. ‎ The next day, the old man boarded with a big smile and said in a loud voice, “A very good morning to you all!” Some of us looked up, amazed, and murmured “ good morning” in reply. ‎ The following weeks, our friend was dressed in a nice old suit and tie. The ‎ thin hair had been carefully combed. He said good morning to us every day and we gradually began to nod and talk to each other. ‎ One morning he even had a bunch of wild flowers in his hand. The driver turned around smilingly and asked, “Have you got yourself a girlfriend, Charlie?” We never got to know if his name really was “Charlie”, but he nodded shyly and said yes. The other passengers whistled and clapped at him. Charlie waved the flowers before he sat down on his seat. ‎ Every morning after that Charlie always brought flowers. Some passengers also brought flowers for him. The bus became a happy place. ‎ Then, one morning, as autumn was closing in, Charlie wasn’t waiting at his usual stop. When he wasn’t there the next day and the day after that, we started wondering if he was sick or hopefully---on holiday somewhere. When we came nearer to the center for senior citizens, one of the passengers even asked the driver to wait. ‎ We all held our breaths when he went to the door. The old gentleman was fine, but one of his close friends had died over the weekend. How silent we were the rest of the way to work.‎ The next Monday Charlie was waiting at the stop, and without a tie. Inside the bus was silent. ‎ ‎31.

The purpose of the passage is to _________. ‎ ‎ A. persuade us to become friendly to people around ‎ ‎ B. tell us to keep silent when somebody passes away ‎ ‎ C. introduce the old gentleman and praise his good deeds ‎ ‎ D. criticize those who remain silent when they are greeted ‎ C School phobia is a type of illness which causes students to be afraid to ‎ go to school. This condition is most commonly seen in children, typically between the ages of 8-13, and it can be very upsetting, especially if it is allowed to progress. Symptoms include stomach aches, tiredness, shaking, a racing heart and frequent trips to the toilet.‎ This common phobia is associated with a wide variety of causes. Most commonly it is the result of separation anxiety, but it can also be caused by different kinds of stress. A child who has recently moved, suffered a loss, or gone through a divorce may develop school phobia, and phobias can also develop in response to bullying (欺侮), an unrecognized learning disability, and poor self-image. Understanding the cause of a school phobia is an important step in providing treatment.‎ A child with school phobia usually refuses to go to school, or protests violently. He or she may become physically ill when ordered to school, or pretend to be sick to avoid going. When the child arrives at school, he or she may run away, or develop behavioural problems in class and on the playground. When school is discussed, the child can become impatient, upset or angry.‎ Many techniques can be used to manage school phobia, but research suggests that much more effective treatment is required for school phobia to prevent problems developing in later life. Children with this condition usually benefit from seeing a psychologist or doctor who can help the child and provide assistance to help parents and school officials support the child. As soon as a school phobia is identified, parents should take action too. Like other phobias, school phobia gets worse the longer it is left untreated, and it can interfere with a child's success in school. Adjustments can be made at home and in the classroom to help. If bullying is a cause, for example, the bullying situation should be solved. A teacher can meet the child at the door and take him or her to class, and provide support so that the child feels a friendly adult is always available.‎ Changes at home can include supportive language from parents, along with support like assistance with homework. If a child lacks confidence, parents may encourage the child to take up new hobbies that will help them to feel good about themselves. Parents might also talk to their children about their own fears of school and how they got over them, and their own enjoyment of school and school-like activities. ‎ By following these methods we can help children to dispel their school phobia.‎ ‎36. Which of the following topics is NOT discussed in the passage?‎ ‎ A. The definition of school phobia. B. The history of school phobia.‎ ‎ C. The causes of school phobia. D. The effects of school phobia.‎ ‎37. What is a useful treatment for school phobia according to the passage?‎ ‎ A. Teachers should be stricter with students. ‎ ‎ B. Children should be regularly sent to psychologist. ‎ ‎ C. Parents should allow their children occasional days off.‎ ‎ D. Children should be helped to develop a sense of achievement.‎ ‎38. The underlined word “dispel” in the last paragraph probably means “_________”.‎ ‎ A. accept B. realize C. overcome D. forget ‎ ‎39. Which of the following statement might the author agree with?‎ ‎ A. Most children with school phobia are pretending to be ill. ‎ ‎ B. School phobia is most often suffered by middle school students.‎ ‎ C. Children with school phobia should not be given medical treatment.‎ ‎ D. School phobia may have bad influence on children’s future life if neglected.‎ ‎40. What are some of the reasons for school phobia mentioned in the passage?‎ ‎ A. Shaking, lack of confidence and few friends.‎ ‎ B. Bullying, recent devoice and moving to a new area.‎ ‎ C. Learning disability, impatience and poor concentration.‎ ‎ D. Stomachache, poor school performance and aggressive teachers.‎ D Millions of people die of hunger in southern Africa every year, but when Zambia was offered thousands of tons of free maize by the US, the government politely paid no. “We don’t know whether the food is safe,” said Zambia’s commerce, Trade and Industry Minister Dipak Patel. His worries are shared by countries around the world that are in two minds about America’s genetically modified（GM,转基因的）crops．Just last week, EU（欧盟）member nations were discussing whether or not to import GM sweet corn from the US． Ever since people started farming, they have tried to crossbreed（杂交）plants to make them stronger or better tasting. At one time, only related plants could be crossed with each other． But when GM techniques were developed in the 1970s, scientists were able to put a single gene from a living creature into an unrelated creature. This means they can make crops more productive and resistant to disease by adding genes from other species．They can also create food with special characteristics, such as “golden rice”, which is enriched with vitamin A. But many people believe GM foods are a health risk. At the moment, the official argument is that GM foods “are not likely to present risks for human health”. But there are still many questions to be answered as the foods are produced in different ways. Some experts believe the genetic material added to plants can transfer to humans and give damage to our bodies. Further harm could be caused by the genes from GM plants crossbreeding with naturally produced crops．‎ People in China are also getting worried about GM foods. More than 70 percent of the country’s soybean oil is produced from imported GM soybeans. Meanwhile, an investigation last November found that 12 of 60 famous foods sold across the country were GM products. The government has begun to introduce a marking system for GM goods so that people can choose whether or not to eat them. 41. Which is the best title for the passage ?‎ ‎ A. GM foods in China B. Advantages of GM foods ‎ ‎ C. GM foods, a health risk? D. the techniques of GM foods 42. Why has Zambia refused the American free maize?‎ ‎ A. they decide to follow EU member’s advice B. they worry about the safety of GM foods ‎ C. Their problem of starvation is not serious D. they are too proud to accept free offer ‎43. It has been proved that _________.‎ ‎ A. GM foods are harmful to people’s health ‎ ‎ B. GM food is better than naturally produced foods ‎ ‎ C. only related plans could be crossed with each other ‎ ‎ D. GM techniques can increase the production of crops ‎ ‎44. Which of the following statement is TRUE?‎ ‎ A. There is no GM foods in China. ‎ ‎ B. Only Zambia worries about the safety of GM foods.‎ ‎ C. China’s government doesn’t do anything about GM foods. ‎ ‎ D. Some experts believe human bodies can absorb genetic material from GM foods.‎ ‎45. What’s the author’s attitude towards GM foods?‎ ‎ A. Supportive. B. Neutral. C. Doubtful. D. Critical.‎ 第二节 信息匹配（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）‎ 阅读下列应用文及相关信息,并按照要求匹配信息.（注意：如果选E，请涂AB，如果选F，则涂CD）‎ 首先阅读下列百老汇最近上演的节目信息。‎ A.

For one thing, as the saying goes, violence is not the solution to problems, which means that even if students punch the wall heavily, the true stress in the bottom of their hearts can not be let out. For another,this may lead students into the results of solving a problem with violence of fixing a bad temper, which has bad effects on their health growth. dddd In order to decrease our stress, here are some suggestions that I can offer as follows. (段首中心句，回应：(3)提供一些其他有效的减压方法)。To begin with, we can design more outdoor actlvities for students to get rid of the stress, such as climbing mountains. What’s more, it is strongly suggested that we can part part in some sports events,which can surely help students out of stress and improve their health at the same time. In addiction, some interest clubs such as music,dance, are also good places that offer comfort to students.‎ From what have been discussed above, we can come to a conclusion that the students should be taught to relieve stress in a more gentle, peaceful and reasonable way rather than hitting a wall. Only when we let out the stress properly, can we live a happy school life!(万能结尾段！2个必用句型)‎
