Everybody seems to think that you know more about what is going on, and a fellow who makes his home in Washington can look forward to being invited to lots of parties.‎ I discovered this when I went up to New York recently. At the first dinner party, everyone was most interested in what was going on in Washington and I was quite honest and admitted I had no idea. Not only did this disappoint the people I was dining with, it also made them angry. They couldn't believe that I didn't know and assumed I wasn't telling the truth. ‎ When I was leaving, the hostess told me, "We didn't expect you to tell us everything, but I see no reason why you have to protect the Administration."I decided then I would have to come up with some inside information, or I would have to pay for my own meals in New York So the next morning I went through all the morning papers and took time to watch TV for what had happened recently. When I arrived at the party, I was well prepared to discuss almost anything. "What do they say about taxes in Washington?" a lawyer asked.‎ ‎“I've heard there will probably be a tax cut next year," I said・‎ ‎"Can you tell us what the President plans to do about Latin America?"‎ ‎“I'm sorry!" I said, "There are some things the President discusses with me that I just can't talk about in public.”‎ ‎“Quite true," the lawyer agreed, "You've probably told us more than you should anyway."‎ For the next three days I had more invitations to dinner parties than I could accept. But it has been quite a strain. I have to go on reading so many newspapers and watching so many TV shows from Washington that sometimes I wonder if it's worth the trouble.‎ ‎21. At the first dinner party the people were disappointed and angry because ‎ A. the author did not tell them the truth B. the author refused to pay for the dinner C. the author did not offer any inside information D. the author showed no interest in what they discussed ‎22.How did the author get well prepared for the next party?‎ A. He tried to catch up on the latest events.‎ B. He had secret discussions with the President C. He learned how to protect the Administration.‎ D. He consulted the lawyer about taxes in Washington.‎ ‎23. What does the underlined word "strain" in the last paragraph mean?‎ A. Burden. B. Pleasure・ C. Shame. D. Responsibility.‎ B ‎ The traffic in Lagos, Nigeria's capital, is enough to make the most patient travelers mad. A rush-hour commuter（通勤者）can take three hours to go ‎15 km. Office workers try, often in vain, not to fall asleep at their desks after hard and sweaty journeys・ Globe-travelling managers are never sure whether they will catch their flights.‎ A person who benefits has been the okada rider. On his cheap motorbike taxi, he often carries an entire family or a week's groceries, ducking through the traffic. His wildly time-saving ways include riding on the wrong side of the road and ignoring red lights.‎ But Babatunde Fashola, Lagos's popular governor; is banning okadas as part of his push to put the city in order. On September 1, Mr. Fashola banned okadas from many of the coastal city's main roads and bridges. Many Lagosians say that, though he has actually banned okadas, the governor has failed to provide alternatives・‎ Many poorer Lagosians, facing long journeys from the countryside, must now use far slower taxis or unlicensed minibuses. Richer people who have always used their own cars are also complaining（抱怨）as the jams become even worse.‎ Mr Fashola notes that the untrained riders cause many accidents・ Of the dozen, five admit to having had serious crashes. One has an open wound on his leg. Another lifts his T-shirt to show a ‎ scar on his chest. Mr. Fashola, who took office in 2007, has been trying to set up a proper public transport system・ A bus system with its own lanes started running in 2008・ Two railway lines are promised, though it is unclear when they will be laid.‎ But many think the campaign against okadas is not mature. Whether Mn Fashola can successfully carry out his measures is another matter. After he previously ordered okada riders to buy helmets, many wore old paint cans and melon rinds（瓜皮）.‎ ‎24. What in particular annoys Lagosian commuters?‎ A. Not having fixed taxi fares.‎ B. Wasting time in traffic jams.‎ C. Not having punctual flights. ‎ D. Missing scheduled appointments・‎ ‎25. Why did Mr. Fashola ban okadas?‎ A. To promote the use of taxis. ‎ B. To introduce new alternatives・ ‎ C. To make himself a more popular governor D. To create a city with a good transport system ‎26. What does the underlined sentence in the last paragraph imply?‎ A. The green concept is most welcome in Nigeria・‎ B. Lagosians are creative and full of imagination.‎ C. Lagosians didn't fully support Mr. Fashola's measures・‎ D. The campaign against okadas didn't catch public attention.‎ C From ancient stories to modern researches, the label（标签）attached to being left-handed is undeniable. Left-handed people, or "lefties" as they are often called, are generally believed to be good at art — Leonardo da Vinci, Picasso and Michelangelo are all left-handed ・‎ Our brain is divided into two parts: the left hemisphere（大脑半球）and the right hemisphere・‎ ‎ The left hemisphere, linked to logic and analysis, is responsible for the right side of the body. The right hemisphere, linked to creativity and imagination, controls the left side of the body. So, people tend to believe lefties are controlled by the right side of the brain, and are more creative than right-handers. Some also think that lefties may not be as good as right-handers in mathematics and problem-solving skills.‎ However; a recent study carried out by scientists from the University of Liverpool in the UK and the University of Milan in Italy proved this theory wrong・ The study involved（涉及）more than 2,300 students in Italy aged between 6 and 17 years old. They were asked to complete several mathematical tasks of different levels. It turned out the left-handers outperformed the others when the tasks involved difficult problem-solving. This pattern was particularly clear in male adolescents・ However; when it came to simple arithmetic, there was no difference between left-handers aud right-handers・‎ It was also discovered that those who are “severely” right-handed performed less well in all the experiments compared to "medium” right-handers and left-handers.‎ ‎"Taken together, these findings show that handedness does influence abilities to some degree," the study's authors wrote. However, "handedness is just an indirect expression of brain function," wrote psychology professor Giovanni Sala from the University of Liverpool in the UK, the lead author of the study. Sala also noted that only one third of people with a highly-developed right side of the brain are left-handed. It means that there are lots of right-handed people with a similar brain function as left-handers.‎ ‎27. The author begins the text by .‎ A. telling some ancient stories B. giving examples of artworks C. introducing a modern research D. presenting conventional（传统的） wisdom ‎28. What is the main focus of paragraph 2?‎ A. Skills of solving problems.‎ B. Ways of becoming creative.‎ C. People's opinions of left-handers.‎ D. The functions of two hemispheres.‎ ‎29. What can we learn from the recent study led by Giovanni Sala?‎ A. Handedness doesn't have any association with brain function.‎ B. People with a highly-developed right hemisphere are most likely lefties.‎ C. The "severely" right-handed are far better at simple arithmetic than lefties.‎ D. Right-handers didn't perform as well as lefties when handling tough problems.‎ ‎30. The text is most probably taken from .‎ A. a medical report B. a science magazine ・‎ C. a biology textbook D. an education essay 第二节（共5个小题；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，并在答题纸上将该项涂黑。选项中有两项为多余选项。‎ Often, when you buy a computer, the laptop（手提电脑）bag is overlooked, but it is one of the most valuable things a computer owner can have. Most choose a laptop simply because they want to be able to transport it from place to place. 31 The bag not only protects the computer from dirt or damage, it can also be used to carry other laptop parts, such as spare batteries, a computer mouse and any portable equipment you may have.‎ The first thing to consider when choosing the best laptop bag is what style of bag you may want. The most common styles are the briefcase（公文包）and the backpack. 32The briefcase gives a sense of professionalism while the backpack may be easier to carry much of the time.‎ A laptop bag should have both a computer sleeve along with several separate sections・ The sleeve helps keep the laptop from moving too much in the bag. The sections are good for storage of documents and other things you may want to transport along with the computer; 33‎ Another thing when you buy a laptop bag is making sure it is strongly sewed and has a solid bottom・ These two things will make your bag much stronger, especially if it is the backpack style・‎34 In some cases, it may just be a few months before a computer owner needs a new one・ However if made properly, laptop bags can last five or more years・‎ ‎35 Buying a cloth bag may be a cheaper option, but leather bags are generally made better and ‎ are able to stand up to use much better Besides, leather offers a natural barrier to water when the computer is transported through rain or snow.‎ A. Obviously the former is more important, though・‎ B. Each one has their own advantages as laptop bags・ ‎ C. Materials also make a difference, especially in the briefcase style.‎ D. But without a good laptop bag, that becomes much more difficult E. There are lots of choices when it comes to choosing the best laptop bag・‎ F. This will prevent them rubbing up against the computer and scratching it.‎ G. Choosing a cheap bag without these could greatly reduce the life of the bag・.‎ 第三部分：语言运用（共两节，满分45分）第一节：完形填空（共20个小题；每小题1.5分，满分30分）‎ 阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题纸上将该项涂黑。 ‎ On the last day of college before graduation, our professor walked up on stage to give us a 36 lesson, which she called "a life lesson on the 37 of mindsets（思维模式）”. As she raised a glass of water over her head, everyone 38 her to mention the typical "glass half empty or glass half full” question. 39, with a smile on. her face, the professor asked, “How 40 is this glass of water I'm holding?'，Students shouted out answers 41 from eight ounces（盎司）to a couple pounds・‎ After a few moments of reasonable answers, she replied, "In my opinion, the 42weight of this glass doesn't matter.

In each 47 , the weight of the glass doesn't change, 48 the longer I hold it, the heavier it 49 to me."‎ As the class nodded their heads in 50 , she continued, "Your worries, disappointments, and 51 thoughts are like this glass of water. Think about them for a while and 52 happens. Think about them a bit longer and you begin to feel 53 .

That's over 75 million families. Besides getting a faithful companion, these friends also provide many health benefits that can be truly life changing for your fitness and wellness.‎ Most dogs need to do their business outside many times per day, so you are up and moving more often than non-pet owners.

Frequent daily exercise lowers your blood pressure and reduces your chances of suffering from heart disease.‎ Your physical health isn't the only thing that gets better with a companion dog. You can also improve your mental well-being. People suffering from anxiety find it helpful to have a dog on hand that's happy to provide assistance.

If your dog is a more active type, you could find yourself taking your friend all over the place. If you take your dog to the forest, you actually lower your tendency to suffer negative（消极的）feelings.
