That’s what Becky’s life is like.‎ Three years ago, Becky was reading a newspaper article which mentioned that it was impossible for people to remember the details of their life in the first three years.“What nonsense!” she thought, because she could clearly remember her life all the way back to when she was just 12 days old. Her parents had carried her to the driver’s seat of their car and laid her down for a photo. But it wasn’t nonsense. She was just one of only 80 known people suffering from a mysterious condition called HSAM（超忆症）.‎ Becky’s unusual case was shown on a program called 60 Minutes, where reporter Allison tested her ability by asking her about her favorite book series, Harry Potter, Allison would pick up a book and open a page and read her a line. Immediately Becky would name the book, chapter number, chapter name and could recite every word until Allison told her to stop.‎ Being able to remember every little detail is great, but as every HSAM suffer will tell you, it’s also tough to deal with it. We always forget things to get over sad experiences in our lives, but it’s something that people like Becky can’t do. Even walking on the street and lightly knocking into somebody can bring back bad memories from Becky’s childhood. Also, like Becky, people with HSAM never do well in school, because they have problems picking up the important information from what they've learnt.‎ Becky’s great brain could help scientists find a cure for terrible mental illnesses like Alzheimer’s.(老年痴呆症) Her condition could hold the secret to treating or even preventing Alzheimer’s.‎ ‎5. Why was Becky asked questions on 60 minutes?‎ A. To help treat her illness.‎ B.To advertise Harry Potter.‎ C.To test her ability to remember.‎ D.To encourage other kids to read.‎ ‎6. To Becky, forgetting painful experiences of her life is     .‎ A. a heavy burden    B. a happy thing C. a great ability    D. a big chance ‎7. Why does Becky do poorly in her school work?‎ A. She is always absent—minded in class.‎ B. She feels sad every time she begins to study.‎ C. She can't understand the teacher in class.‎ D. She remembers too much information and can't tell which is important.‎ ‎8. What does the author want to say in the last paragraph?‎ A. There is a cure for Becky's illness.‎ B. Scientists have found a cure for Alzheimer’s.‎ C. Becky will suffer from another mental illness.‎ D. Becky’s case is helpful for scientists to treat Alzheimer’s.‎ C The impression you make at the beginning of an interview is very important Employers often decide to hire someone in the first three minutes of the interview. They judge you by your appearance, attitude and manners.‎ A friendly smile when you walk into the room is important. A smile shows a confident and positive attitude.When you introduce yourself, make eye contact with the ‎ interviewer. Some interviewers offer a handshake. Others don't.‎ Try to be as natural as possible. But pay attention to your body language. The way you sit, walk, gesture,use your voice and show feelings on your face is all part of your body language. It makes the interviewer know how you feel about yourself and the situation you are in. Are you feeling positively about yourself？Your abilities? Your interest in the job？‎ Speak clearly and loudly enough. Show interest and enthusiasm in your voice. When you speak, look at the interviewer. Also, don't say negative things about yourself, or ‎ former employer.‎ ‎     Listen to questions carefully. If you don't understand a question, ask the interviewer to repeat or explain:‎ ‎    "I'm sorry, but I didn't catch that."‎ ‎     "I'm not sure exactly what you mean."‎ ‎     Almost everyone is nervous in a job interview. Interviewers know that. They don't ‎ expect you to be totally calm and relaxed. But they expect you to try to control your [来源:Zxxk.Com]‎ nervousness. They expect you to show confidence in your ability to do the job.‎ ‎     At the end of the interview, thank the interviewer for her or his time.

Sending a Thank-You Letter[来源:学科网]‎ D Parents often believe that they have a good relationship with their teenagers. But last summer, Joanna and Henry noticed a change in their older son: suddenly he seemed to be talking far more to his friends than to his parents. “The door to his room is always shut.” Joanna noted. Tina and Mark noticed similar changes in their 14-year-old daughter. ”She used to cuddle up with me on the sofa and talk,” said Mark. “Now we joke that she does this only when she wants something. Sometimes she wants to be treated like a little girl and sometimes like a young lady. The problem is figuring out which time is which.” Before age 11, children like to tell their parents what’s on their minds. “ In fact, parents are first on the list.” Said Michael Riera, author of Uncommon Sense for Parents with Teenagers. “This completely changes during the teen years.” Riera explained. “They talk to their friends first, then maybe their teachers, and their parents last.” Parents who know what’s going on in their teenagers’ lives are in the best position to help them. To break down the wall of silence, parents should create chances to understand what their children want to say, and try to find ways to talk and write to them. And they must give their children a mental break, for children also need freedom, though young. Another thing parents should remember is that to be a friend, not a manager, with their children is a better way to know them. 13．What troubles Tina and Mark most is that______‎ A.their daughter isn't as lovely as before.‎ B. they can't read their daughter's mind exactly.‎ C.they don't know what to say to their daughter.‎ D.their daughter talks with them only when she needs help. 14．Which of the following best explains ”the wall of silence” in the last paragraph? A．Teenagers talk a lot with their friends. B．Teenagers do not want to understand their parents. C．Teenagers do not talk much with their parents. D．Teenagers talk little about their own lives. 15．What can be learned from the passage? A．Parents are unhappy with their growing children. B．Parents have suitable ways to talk with their teenagers. C．Parents should be patient with their silent teenagers. D．Parent should try to understand their teenagers.‎ 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。‎ How Can I Fight Laziness?‎ Lazy people will never gain anything in life. However, laziness can be defeated once a few changes have been made in your mind.‎ ‎ 16 Many people lack sleep constantly, since they stay up too late and get up too early to prepare for work. These people have little motivation once they arrive home. Laziness works hand in hand with a lack of motivation and a tendency to put off things. By adjusting your sleep schedule to provide a few more hours of meaningful rest, you can fight laziness throughout the day.‎ Another way to fight laziness is to change your mind from passive to active. Some people treat their lives as if they were pushed from task to task. 17 Laziness appears when you no longer feel in charge of your own mind.‎ Some people fight laziness by removing the temptations(诱惑) that surround them. A television in the living room may provide entertainment, but watching too much TV often contributes to laziness. 18 Complete a few tasks and reward yourself with ‎ what you enjoy,such as a good dinner or a film.‎ Laziness can also be a lasting problem at home. Couples and children may all have different energy levels, but laziness can be spread if not dealt with immediately. 19 Be the first to collect and wash dishes after a meal. Others in the home may eventually follow your example and perform their own task. It is difficult to practice laziness when you are surrounded by motivated people.‎ ‎ 20 Enough exercise and a balanced diet can help you to develop a healthy lifestyle, thus enabling you to have more energy and help lift your spirits.‎ A. To fight family laziness, set an example.‎ B. Knowing how to fight laziness is important.‎ C. One way to fight laziness is to get enough sleep.‎ D. Finally, taking exercise regularly can help you fight laziness.‎ E. With strong determination, you will be able to achieve your goal.‎ F. Create a reward system for yourself, just as parents do for a child.[来源:Zxxk.Com]‎ G. Others take a more positive approach, viewing each task as a challenge they must overcome alone.‎ 第二部分 英语知识运用 （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）‎ A long time ago there was a boy.
