Of the outstanding ladies listed below, who do you think was the most important woman of the past 100 years?‎ Jane Addams (1860-1935)‎ Anyone who has ever been helped by a social worker has Jane Addams to thank. Addams helped the poor and worked for peace. She encouraged a sense of community(社区) by creating shelters and promoting education and services for people in need. In 1931, Addams became the first American woman to win the Nobel Peace Prize.‎ Rachel Carson (1907-1964)‎ If it weren’t for Rachel Carson, the environmental movement might not exist today. Her popular 1962 book Silent Spring raised awareness of the dangers of pollution and the harmful effects of chemicals on humans and on the world’s lakes and oceans.‎ Sandra Day O’Connor (1930-present)‎ When Sandra Day O’Connor finished third in her class at Stanford Law School, in 1952, she could not find work at a law firm because she was a woman. She became an Arizona state senator(参议员) and ,in 1981, the first woman to join the U.S. Supreme Court. O’Connor gave the deciding vote in many important cases during her 24 years on the top court.‎ Rosa Parks (1913-2005)‎ On December 1, 1955, in Montgomery, Alabama, Rasa Parks would not give up her seat on a bus to a passenger. Her simple act landed Parks in prison. But it also set off the Montgomery bus boycott. It lasted for more than a year, and kicked off the civil-rights movement. “The only tired I was, was tired of giving in,” said Parks.‎ ‎21. What is Jane Addams well-known for in history?‎ A.

In English-speaking countries people often make small talk about the weather. “Nice day, isn’t it?” “Terrible weather, isn’t it?” But there is something special about small talk. It must be about something which both people have the same opinion about. The purpose of small talk is to let both people agree on something. This makes meeting people easier and more comfortable. People usually agree about the weather, so it is a safe topic for small talk. But people often disagree about religion(宗教) or politics(政治) so these are not suitable topics for small talk. The topics for small talk also depend on where the conversation is taking place. At football matches, people make small talk about the game they are watching. “Great game, isn’t it?” At bus-stops, people may comment on the transport system. “The bus service is terrible, isn’t it?”‎ ‎25.

That is why some friendships don’t last very long. To have a friend, you must learn to treat your friend the way you want your friend to treat you. Learning to be a good friend means learning three rules: be honest; be generous；be understanding.‎ Honesty is where a good friendship starts. Friends must be able to trust one another. If you don’t tell the truth, people usually find out. If a friend finds out that you haven’t been honest, you may lose your friend’s trust. Good friends always count on one another to speak and act honestly. Generosity means sharing and sharing makes a friendship grow. You don’t have to give your lunch money or your clothes, or enjoy, like our hobbies and your interests. Naturally you will want to share your ideas and feelings. These can be very valuable to a friend. They tell your friend what is important to you. By sharing them you help your friend know you better.‎ Sooner or later everyone needs understanding and help with a problem. Something may go wrong at school. Talking about the problem can make it easier to solve. Turning to a friend can be a first step in solving the problem. So to be a friend you must listen and understand. You must try to put yourself in your friend’s place so you can understand the problem better.‎ No two friendships are ever exactly alike(相同). But all true friendships have three things in common. If you plan to keep your friendships, you must practice honesty, generosity and understanding.‎ ‎32. Some friendships don’t last very long because .‎ A. there are too many people who want to make friends B. they don’t know friendship is something serious C. those who give others friendships receive friendships from others D. those who never give others friendships receive no friendship from others ‎33. According to the passage , honesty is .‎ A. as important as money B. more important than anything else ‎ C. something countable D. the base of a friendship ‎ ‎34. Which of the following is NOT true in the passage?‎ A. A friend who gives you his lunch money is a true friend.‎ B. Always tell your friend the truth.‎ C. Discussing your problems with your friend often helps to solve the problem.‎ D. Sharing your mind with your friend is of great value.‎ ‎35. The best title of this passage is .‎ A. A Friend in Need Is a Friend Indeed B. Honesty Is the Best Habit C. How to Be a Friend D. Three Important Points in Life 第一节 ‎（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）‎ 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余项。‎ The Winner’s Guide to Success How do successful people think? What helps them to make success? To find out the answers, an American scholar recently visited some of the most successful people in America. 36 .‎ Be responsible for yourself Sometimes you may want to blame others for your failure to get ahead. In fact, when you say someone or something outside of yourself is stopping you from making success, you’re giving away your own power. You’re saying, “You have more control over my life than I do.”‎ Live life “on purpose”‎ Almost all successful people live life “on purpose”. 37 .When you live your life on purpose, you’ll try your best to do your job or study as well as you can. You love what you do and you can find pleasure in what you do.‎ Write a plan It is very difficult trying to get what you want without a good plan. It is just like trying to drive through strange roads to a city far away. 38 Without this “map”, you may waste your time, money and also your energy; while with the “map” you’ll enjoy the “trip” and get what you want in the shortest possible time. ‎ Be willing to pay the price Nothing great is easy to get. So you must be ready to work hard-even harder than you have ever done. If you are not willing to pay the price, you won’t get anything valuable.‎ ‎ 39 ‎ It seems to us that everyone knows this. But it is easier said than done. When you are doing something, you must tell yourself again and again: Giving up is worse than failure because failure can be the mother of success, but giving up means the death of hope.‎ Don’t delay Once an American writer was writing a novel. He could not have a good ending for his book until one night when he had a very good idea. He was so excited that he made a phone call to one of his best friends. “I’ve got a perfect idea,” he said, “I’ll put it down later and show it to you.” But he never did, because he died that night. His book was left without a perfect ending. 40 . Never put off the things you want to do.‎ A. Some people achieve success much later in life because they fail to realize earlier the importance of hard work.‎ B. So remember, do what you can right away.‎ C. Never give up.‎ D. A good plan is like a map to you.‎ E. Here are some keys to success that they give.‎ F. They are doing what they believe they should and want to do. ‎ G. Make a decision.‎ 第三部分：英语知识应用（共两节，满分45分） 第一节 完形填空（共20小题；每小题1.5分，满分30分）‎ 阅读下面短文，掌握其大意；然后从41—60各小题所给的四个选项中选出一个最佳答案。‎ My father often works very hard. And he 41 goes to the movies.
