Before checking out the golden sand, take a quick tour of the houses of millionaires from the art and film industries.‎ Palm Beach Only about an hour from downtown Sydney, Palm Beach offers a long stretch(延伸) of clean sand and water. With parking near the center of the beach, that leaves the rest of it as a peaceful location with a sparse population, from which you can go surfing but take care — without the huge crowds of other Sydney’s beaches, Palm Beach doesn’t afford quite the safety level to be found elsewhere. Volunteer lifesavers are on duty only on weekends and holidays.‎ Bondi‎ ‎Beach For the famous beach, Bondi‎ ‎Beach has to be your choice. Parking is difficult to find even on slow days, so consider taking public transport to this world-known beach in the eastern Sydney suburbs. Easily reachable by taxi, bus, and rail, Bondi‎ ‎Beach offers sun bathing, swimming, snorkeling, and all sorts of water sports fun. If you’re in the mood for a bit of exercise, two scenic coastal walks will afford you great views and sights along the shore. Take in views from Mackenzie’s Point. It starts at Bondi and heads south to Bronte‎ ‎Beach. But don’t try to swim in Mackenzie’s Bay — it holds dangers such as hidden rocks.‎ Bronte‎ ‎Beach Your second choice for a scenic coastal walk covers a few miles and takes you from Bronte Beach to Waverly‎ ‎Cemetery, where many famous Australians are buried, including the poet Henry Lawson.‎ ‎26．Which of the following shows the right order of the beaches lined from the south to the north?‎ ‎ A. Palm Beach—Sydney Beach—Bronte Beach—‎Bondi‎ ‎Beach ‎ B. Bronte Beach—Bondi Beach—Palm Beach—Sydney Beach ‎ C. Sydney Beach—Palm Beach—Bondi Beach—‎Bronte‎ ‎Beach ‎ D. Bondi Beach—Bronte Beach—Palm Beach—Sydney Beach ‎27．The underlined word "sparse" probably means_______.‎ ‎ A. large B. thick C. thin D. crowded ‎28. On Bondi Beach, you can do all of the following except ______.‎ ‎ A. sun bathing B. swimming in Mackenzie’s Bay ‎ C. snorkeling D. surfing ‎29．What can we learn from the passage?‎ ‎ A. If you want to enjoy a walk, you can choose Bondi Beach or Bronte‎ ‎Beach.‎ ‎ B. If you want to swim in Palm Beach, the safer time is on weekdays and holidays.‎ ‎ C. If you want to visit the famous people’s tombs, you can choose Sydney Beach.‎ ‎ D. If you want to visit Palm Beach, the airplane is your best choice.‎ ‎30．What’s the purpose of the text?‎ ‎ A. It aims to show the scenery of the beaches in and around Sydney.‎ ‎ B. It aims to introduce the culture and customs in and around Sydney.‎ ‎ C. It aims to show the activities on the beaches in and around Sydney.‎ ‎ D. It aims to attract the visitors to the beaches in and around Sydney.‎ B ‎21 years ago, I was a pretty girl with two bright eyes, admitted to the University‎ of ‎North Carolina, aiming at a legal career and dreaming of sitting on a Supreme Court bench somewhere. 21 years later, I am still a bright-eyed dreamer and one with quite a different story to tell.‎ My grandma, an amazing woman, graduated from college an the age of 65. She was the first in our family to reach that goal. But one year after I started college, she developed cancer. I made the choice to withdraw from college to care for her. It meant that school and my personal dream would have to wait.‎ Then I got married with another dream: building my family with a combination of adopted and biological children. In 1999, we adopted our first son. To lay eyes on him was fantastic---and very emotional. A year later came our second adopted boy. Then followed son No. 3. In 2003, I gave birth to another boy.‎ You can imagine how fully occupied I became, raising four boys under the age of 8! Our home was a complete zoo---a joyous zoo. Not surprising, I never did make it back to college full-time. But I never gave up on the dream either. I had only one choice: to find a way. That meant taking as few as one class each semester.‎ The hardest part was feeling guilty about the time I spent away from the boys. They often wanted me to stay home with them. There certainly were times I wanted to quit, but I knew I should set an example for ‎ them to follow through the rest of their lives.‎ In 2007, I graduated from the University‎ of ‎North Carolina. It took me over 21 years to get my college degree！‎ I am not special, just single-minded. It always struck me that when you’re looking at a big challenge from the outside it looks huge, but when you’re in the midst of it, it just seems normal. Everything you want won’t arrive in your life on one day. It’s a process. Remember: little steps add up to big dreams.‎ ‎31. When the author went to the University‎ of ‎North Carolina 21years ago , her dream was to be______. ‎ A. a writer B. a teacher C. a judge D. a doctor ‎32. Why did the author quit school in her second year of college?‎ A. She wanted to study by herself. B. She fell in love and got married.‎ C. She suffered from a serious illness. D. She decided to look after her grandma. ‎ ‎33. What can we learn about the author from Paragraphs 4 and 5?‎ A. She was busy yet happy with her family life.‎ B. She ignored her guilty feeling for her sons.‎ C. She wanted to remain a full-time housewife.‎ D. She was too confused to make a correct choice.‎ ‎34.Which of the following can best describe the author ?‎ A. Caring and determined. B .Honest and responsible.‎ C. Ambitious and sensitive . D. Innocent and single-minded.‎ ‎35. What dose the author mostly want to tell us in the last paragraph?‎ A. Failure is the mother of success. B. Little by little, one goes far.‎ C. Every coin has two sides. D. Well begun, half done.‎ C We are surrounded by mixed messages about mistakes: we’re told we earn by making them, but we work hard to avoid them. So the result is that most of us know that we are going to make mistakes, but deep down, we feel we shouldn't.‎ ‎ Experiments with schoolchildren who did well on a given test show that those who were praised for being smart and then offered a more challenging or less challenging task afterward usually chose the easier one. On the other hand, children praised for trying hard-rather than being smart-far more often selected the more difficult task.‎ ‎ If we try hard to avoid mistakes, we aren't open to getting the information we need in order to do better. In a writing study, experiments showed that those who are so scared to make mistakes perform worse in writing tasks than those who aren't as worried about being perfect. They fear receiving any kind of negative feedback, so they don't learn where they went wrong and how to get better.‎ ‎ We don't just learn more when we're open to mistakes, we learn deeper. Research tells us that if we're only concerned about getting the right answer, we don't always learn the underlying concepts that help us truly understand whatever we're trying to figure out. Mistakes need to be seen not as a failure to learn, but as a guide to what still needs to be learned. As Thomas Edison said, “I am not discouraged, because every abandoned wrong attempt is another step forward.”‎ ‎ Furthermore, we often make mistakes because we try new things -- we wander away from accepted paths. Teflon, penicillin -- these are examples of great discoveries made by mistake. Take a page from Albert Einstein, who said, “Anyone who has never made a mistake has never tried anything new.”‎ ‎36. What will happen to students praised for being smart in face of choosing tasks compared to students praised for working hard?‎ ‎ A. He will choose a less challenging task.‎ ‎ B. He will hide his mistakes from his teachers.‎ ‎ C. He will work harder to avoid mistakes.‎ ‎ D. He will ask his teachers for advice.‎ ‎37. In the writing study, the students who wrote better were those who _____.‎ ‎ A. wanted to make their writing perfect.‎ ‎ B. were afraid of making mistakes.‎ ‎ C. open to negative feedbacks.‎ ‎ D. don't learn where they went wrong.‎ ‎38. Which of the following statements is NOT acceptable according to the passage?‎ ‎ A. The more mistakes we make, the more we learn.‎ ‎ B. Mistakes can be used as a positive factor for success.‎ ‎ C. Being open to mistakes help you understand the truth.‎ ‎ D. A step forward may come from mistakes you've made.‎ ‎39. What does the last paragraph want to tell us?‎ ‎ A. One must follow a correct path to avoid mistakes.‎ ‎ B. To become an Einstein, you should make mistakes.‎ ‎ C. You can't make mistakes unless you try new things.‎ ‎ D. Making mistakes is not a disadvantage in a way.‎ ‎40. What's the main idea of the passage?‎ ‎ A. We can never avoid making mistakes when we work.‎ ‎ B. Success can't be achieved without making mistakes.‎ ‎ C. Mistakes should be treated with a correct attitude.‎ D. Try every means to avoid mistakes in our daily life.‎ 四、完形填空（每小题1.5分，共20小题，满分30分）‎ ‎ 阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。‎ ‎ Walking across campus(校园) with every pair of eyes on you can be embarrassing, especially when you’re 13 years old.
