B One spring, when I was 10, during one of my father’s layoffs (失业), I could tell my mother was unhappy. I decided to cheer her up by buying her a special Mother’s Day gift. One day after school I rode my bike to the Agins, which, I learned years later, was known for its high-end fashions (时尚) and styles. I introduced myself to Sylvia Agins, telling her I was looking for a Mother’s Day present. “Do you think she’d like a purse?” she asked. I told her. I thought she might. She took out an Italian handbag made of leather. She asked me what I thought, and I told her that my mom would like it. “How much money do you have?” she asked. “Twelve dollars,” I said. “You’re in luck,” she told me. “It’s only $11. You have a dollar left over for the card.” She gift-wrapped the purse and thanked me for my business, and I rode off home with the package under my arm. When my mother opened the gift the next Sunday morning, she asked in an accusing tone, “Where did you get this?” “I bought it at the Agins. It cost me $11.” I said. My mother was shocked into silence. It wasn’t until many years later, when I learned that the purse was worth several hundred dollars, that I appreciated just how wonderful Sylvia Agins had been to me. I always felt bad that I never had a chance to properly thank her. “You know, my son, what really amazes me to this day,” my mother said, “Letting you have the purse for just a few dollars was unbelievable enough. But the fact that she let you leave the store with a dollar for the card was a touch of kindness that I’ll never forget.” 24.The author bought his mother a purse to ________. A. surprise his mother B. make his mother happy C. show his ability of making money D. thank his mother for buying him a bike 25.Why was the author’s mother shocked into silence? A.

A Considerate Mother B. A Priceless Mother’s Day Gift C. An Unforgettable Event D. A Kind-hearted Shop Owner C Did you know that, in 2016, over 18 million people attended classical concerts in Germany? That’s more people than those who went to main league football matches! Earlier this year, Germany continued its celebration of classical music with the opening of a new concert hall in the heart of Hamburg. Germans are incredibly proud of it and it’s the first thing I show to my friends when they come to visit. Known as the ‘Elphi’ by the locals, the Elbphilharmonie is a beautiful tower of glittering glass sitting atop an old warehouse by the banks of the river Elbe. The plaza(露天广场)is open to the public an from the middle of the city’s tallest building, you can gaze across the harbour, miles of rooftops and passing ships below. The main concert hall seats over 2000 people and is one of the most advanced music venues in the world. Two smaller concert halls are used for jazz, world and contemporary music. In addition, if you’re unbelievably rich, you can buy one of the 45 luxurious apartments lying within the building.Construction began in 2007 with a budget of €241 million and a two-year period. Fast forward ten years, the building eventually opened with a final price tag of over 800 million! I consider myself very lucky that the Elbphilharmonie opened during my time living in Hamburg, but unfortunately I haven’t yet been able to attend a concert. Everything is sold out for six months! For now, I’m content to visit the plaza to enjoy the impressive view over the docks and see the innovative architecture up close. Hopefully one day soon, I’ll be lucky enough to grab a last-minute concert ticket! 28.What does “it” in Paragraph 1 refer to? A. Germany. B. Hamburg. C. A new concert hall. D. Its celebration of classical music. 29.What is Elbe? A. A river. B. A hall. C. A tower. D. A warehouse. 30.What happened after the Elbphilharmonie opened? A. I was invited to visit it. B. Few concerts have been held. C. People find it easy to get concert tickets. D. The performance was quite popular. 31.What can we learn from the last two paragraphs? A. The new concert hall can hold 3000 people at least. B. It took a longer time and more money to build the concert hall. C. The majority of audience are likely to pay for the luxurious apartments. D. The construction of the new concert hall is perfect. D We have all heard the expression: “Remember to stop and smell the roses.” But, how often do we really take time out of our hectic fast-paced lives to notice the world around us? I am as guilty as anyone of tuning out the world in this manner, especially when I am driving on California’s overcrowded streets. A short time ago, however, I witnessed an event that showed me how being wrapped up in my own little world has kept me from being fully aware of the bigger world picture around me. I was driving to a business appointment and, as usual, I was planning in my mind what I was going to say. I came to a very busy crossroads where the stoplight had just turned red. “All right,” I thought to myself, “I can beat the next light if I race ahead of the pack.” My mind and car were in auto pilot, ready to go when suddenly my trance was broken by an unforgettable sight. A young couple, both blind, were walking arm-in-arm across this busy crossroads with cars whizzing by in every direction. The man was holding the hand of a little boy, while the woman was clutching a baby sling to her chest, obviously carrying a child. Each of them had a white cane extended, searching for clues to navigate them across the crossroads. Initially I was moved. They were overcoming what I felt was one of the most feared handicaps — blindness. “Wouldn’t it be terrible to be blind?” I thought. Without realizing the danger they were in, they were walking right the path of oncoming cars. I was frightened for them because I didn’t know if the other drivers understood what was happening. As I watched from the front line of traffic (I had the best seat in the house), I saw a miracle unfold before my eyes. Every car in every direction came to a simultaneous stop. I never heard the screech of brakes or even the peep of a car horn. Nobody even yelled, “Get out of the way!” Everything froze. In that moment, time seemed to stand still for this family. Amazed, I looked at the cars around me to verify that we were all seeing the same thing, I noticed that everyone’s attention was also fixed on the couple. Never skipping a beat, the couple adjusted their course as they followed the coaching. Trusting their white canes and the calls from some concerned citizens, they made it to the other side of the road. As they arrived at the curb, one thing struck me — they were still arm-in-arm. I was taken aback by the emotionless expressions on their faces and judged that they had no idea what was really going on around them. Yet I immediately sensed the sighs of relief exhaled by everyone stopped at that intersection. As I glanced into the cars around me, the driver on my right was mouthing the words “oh, did you see that?!” The driver to the left of me was saying, “I can’t believe it!” I think all of us were deeply moved by what we had just witnessed. Here were human beings stepping outside themselves for a moment to help four people in need. I have reflected back on this situation many times since it happened and have learned several powerful lessons from it. Take time to look around and really see what is going on in front of you right now. Do this and you will realize that this moment is all there is, more importantly, this moment is all that you have to make a difference in life. As I drove away from that busy intersection, I did so with more awareness of life and compassion for others than I had arrived there with. Since then I have made the decision to really see life as I go about my daily activities and use my God-given talents to help others less fortunate. Do yourself a favor as you walk through life: Slow down and take the time to really see. Take a moment to see what is going on around you right now, right where you are. You may be missing something wonderful. 32.Which of the following words can best describe the author’s feelings when seeing the blind cross the street? A. Relieved; Guilty; Nervous B. Amazed; Nervous; Guilty C. Frightened; Moved; Relieved D. Frightened; Regretful; Relieved 33.By saying “Remember to stop and smell the roses”, the author intends to ____. A. indicate he is busy B. make himself relaxed C. notice the world around D. find the beauty of life 34.From the story, we can draw a conclusion that ____. A. joint efforts do make a difference B. good manners never go out of fashion C. drivers observe the social order strictly D. the blind live a happy life despite difficulties 35.What is the author’s purpose of writing this passage? A. To call on people to give a hand when necessary. B. To tell a story about the blind man crossing crossroads. C. To remind drivers to drive slowly for their own safety. D. To persuade people to enjoy a wonderful moment in life. 第二节 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。(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分) Large meals make people full and sleepy. __36__ We want our children to learn, not falling asleep at their desks, so let's keep those lunches on the lighter side.

Text 7: W:Even though this question has been asked many times,I still ask you ‘Do you really love me’? M:I don’t know whether I really love you,but I know I cannot lose you. If the earth is going to be destroyed I want to tell you that you are the only one I want to see. W:If the day that the earth will be destroyed never comes,how is going on? M:I will love you until I don’t love you. W:You mean I just can wait,wait for you don’t love me? M:Maybe not W: I have never asked for anything,but I just want a simple and definite love. So goodbye. M:Well,bye. Text 8: W:Hi,Jerry,I heard you have fun with Peggy in Merry Park yesterday. M:Yes. We had a great time there. Why didn’t you come with us? We got there by bus in only ten minutes. W:I know,but the ticket is more expensive on the weekend. Also,I’ve been there many times since it opened five years ago. Did you try the Dandelion Seat there? It’s so popular that people have to wait for over an hour to get a ride. M:You mean those flower-like umbrellas that fly high in the sky? W:Yes. I enjoyed riding on the Dandelion Seat and looking over the city. It was a great experience. M:Eh… I liked taking the train to get around the park better. I don’t think it’s fun to ride in the air. I’d feel like I could fall down any time. W:Maybe you would like it more at night. It’s wonderful to see the beautiful lights below your feet. M:Well…I’m afraid of high places. W:Oh,I see. That’s too bad. Text 9 M:Dr. Wilson,can I talk to you for a minute? W:Sure,Fred. What is it?. M:I’m worried about my grade in your English class. I really want an“A",but… W:I see. Well,it might be hard for you to get an“A”.So far you have a“B”average. You would need a 97 or 98 in your final exam to get an“A”.Do you think you can get that high a score? M:Probably not.. The problem is I have to have a“B” average in all the subjects to get the prize from our government,or I’ll have to find a part-time job. I’m afraid it is difficult for me to put all my heart in my study if I have to work in my spare time. ⒂ I’ll probably get an“A”in history and a“B”in maths,but I’ll get a“C”in chemistry. W:It is a problem,isn’t it? You’ll have to get an“A” in English to get a“B” average. M:Yes,but things don’t look very good for me right now. W:I gave two less listening tests this term than I usually do. That might have changed your grade a little. Maybe I’ll give everybody a chance to write a composition in English. Then you’11 have a good chance to get an“A”. M:That would be great. I’ll try my best. Thank you very much.
