But there is one huge secret that I kept for years—I failed my driving test. I had never failed a test before, and had never even come close. Driving made me anxious, but my parents told me I had to. They signed me up for driving lessons. I had gotten a perfect score for my written permit exam, but getting behind the wheel was a different story.‎ ‎ But when October 30th rolled around, my pride set in. I wanted to be like everyone else at my school, showing off the brand new license they’d gotten. Looking back on that special day, I can’t remember if I was nervous. What I do remember is starting the test, pausing at a stop sign after a few seconds, and being asked by the instructor to pull over. I had received an auto-fail since my pause was indeed a pause and not a real stop. I wasn’t upset that I was leaving without a license, but I was scared everyone would know that I had failed. So when I got to class, I told everyone I didn’t want to take the test on my birthday.‎ ‎ One Friday a month later, I went to the test spot again and passed. Later that night I drove for the first time by myself, which brought to me an amazing feeling I’ve never experienced—but still, I couldn’t imagine ever telling anyone the truth. So I didn’t. It wasn’t until midway through college that I came clean. It turned out plenty of my college friends had failed too! And I gathered enough courage to speak the fact out. Yes, I had also failed.‎ ‎ Now I realize failure and imperfection are two things everyone has to experience, without which one couldn’t make a true man.‎ ‎24. What can we learn about Matthew?‎ ‎ A. He relied heavily on his parents. B. He was bored with telling lies.‎ ‎ C. He was a slow learner of driving. D. He was afraid of taking exams.‎ ‎25. Why did the instructor ask Matthew to pull over?‎ ‎ A. To put an end to his test. B. To check his parking skills.‎ ‎ C. To give him a second chance. D. To show him a better way of driving.‎ ‎26. What made Matthew feel extremely worried after his first attempt?‎ ‎ A. Failing to get a driving license. B. Missing his birthday celebration.‎ ‎ C. Making his parents disappointed. D. Losing face before his classmates.‎ ‎27. What did Matthew learn from his own experience?‎ ‎ A. Failure is a way to grow up. B. Honesty is the best policy.‎ ‎ C. Truth stands the test of time. D. Imperfection is another form of perfection.‎ C ‎ Actors Keira Knightley and Kristen Bell have both commented on their worries about using Disney princesses as role models for their children.‎ ‎ On a famous talk show, Knightley said her daughter (who was born in 2015) was “banned” from watching Cinderella, which Disney produced as a cartoon in 1950 and a live-action film in 2015. “Cinderella waits around for a rich guy to rescue her. Don’t. Rescue yourself! Obviously.”‎ ‎ Knightley added that she had also forbidden The Little Mermaid, the 1989 cartoon. “This is the one that I’m quite annoyed about because I really like the film. I mean, the songs are great, but do not give up your voice for a man. Well, that’s a little difficult to handle, but I’m keeping to it.”‎ ‎ Bell, the star of Frozen, expressed her disapproval of the Snow White fairytale, which became a classic Disney cartoon in 1938. In an interview with parents, Bell said: “I look at my girls and ask, ‘Don’t you think it’s very unusual that Snow White didn’t ask the old witch why she needed to eat the apple? Or where she got that apple?’ I say, ‘I would never take food from a stranger, would you?’ And my kids respond, ‘No!’ And I think I’m doing something right.”‎ ‎ Bell, who played a Disney princess in Frozen, said she also used the story to illustrate(说明) issues about permission. She says that she asked her children: “Don’t you think that it’s very strange that the prince kisses Snow White without her ‎ permission?... Because you cannot kiss someone if they’re sleeping!”‎ ‎ Bell later responded to criticism on social media. To one user she wrote: “Everything is a message to our children, because they are sponges(海绵) that soak up everything and are learning how to be adults through what they see. I want my girls to see and practice critical thinking and respectful behavior.”‎ ‎28. Why did Knightley stop her daughter from watching The Little Mermaid?‎ ‎ A. Because Knightley disliked it.‎ ‎ B. Because the little mermaid was tricky.‎ ‎ C. Because the film showed wrong values.‎ ‎ D. Because the songs in the film were annoying.‎ ‎29. What can we infer about Bell from Paragragh 4?‎ ‎ A. Bell thought Snow White behaved well.‎ ‎ B. Bell didn’t know how to persuade her kids.‎ ‎ C. Bell wanted her kids to learn from Snow White.‎ ‎ D. Bell believed her kids should be critical about the film.‎ ‎30. What qualities do Knightley and Bell expect their children to have?‎ ‎ A. Curious and hard-working.  B. Smart and generous.‎ ‎ C. Independent and good-mannered.      D. Critical and proud.‎ ‎31. What can be a suitable title for the text?‎ ‎ A. Say No to Disney Princesses B. Rescue Yourselves ‎ C. Doing Something Right D. Practise Critical Thinking D ‎ For more than two hundred years, the White House has stood as a symbol of the United States Presidency, the U.S.‎ government, and the American people. In 1790, President George Washington declared that the federal government would be located in a district “not exceeding(超过) ten miles square... on the river Potomac.” As preparations began, a competition was held to find a builder of the “President’s House.” Nine proposals were submitted, and the Irish-born architect James Hoban won the gold medal for his practical and handsome design. Construction began when ‎ the first cornerstone was laid in October of 1792. Although President Washington oversaw(监督) the construction of the house, he never lived in it. It was not until 1800, when the White House was nearly completed, that its first residents, President John Adams and his wife Abigail, moved in. ‎ ‎ American presidents can express their individual style in how they decorate the house and in how they receive the public. Thomas Jefferson held the first inaugural(就职的) open house in 1805; many of those who attended the swearing-in(宣誓) ceremony at the U.S. Capitol simply followed him home. President Jefferson also opened the house for public tours, and it has remained open, except during wartime, ever since. In addition, Jefferson welcomed visitors to annual receptions on New Year’s Day and on the Fourth of July. Abraham Lincoln did the same, but then the inaugural crowds became far too large for the White House to accommodate comfortably, and this also created a security issue. It was not until Grover Cleveland’s first presidency that some effective crowd control measures were carried out to address the problem caused by this practice.‎ ‎ At various times in history, the White House has been known as the “President’s Palace,” the “President’s House,” and the “Executive‎ ‎Mansion.” President Theodore Roosevelt officially gave the White House its current name in 1901.‎ ‎32. What is this passage mainly about?‎ ‎ A.The design of the White House. B. The location of the White House.‎ ‎ C. The importance of the White House. D.The history of the White House.‎ ‎33. Who started the construction of the White House?‎ ‎ A. John Adams. B. James Hoban. C. George Washington. D. Thomas Jefferson.‎ ‎34. What does “this practice” refer to in the second paragraph?‎ ‎ A. Holding an inaugural open house. B. Accommodating the crowds comfortably.‎ ‎ C. Decorating the White House. D. Joining in the swearing-in ceremony.‎ ‎35. According to the passage, which of the following is NOT true about the White House?‎ ‎ A. The White House has had several names.‎ ‎ B. The designer of the White House was an American president.‎ ‎ C. People were not allowed to visit the White House during wartime.‎ ‎ D.The White House is located in a district not larger than ten miles square.‎ 第二节 （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选项。‎ Thanks to Earth, we have fresh air to breathe, clean water to drink and warm sunshine to enjoy.
