We were living from paycheck to paycheck, so when Christmas approached, we didn't know if we would be able to purchase gifts for our children.‎ A few days before Christmas someone dropped off presents for all the kids that lived at the motel. It brought so much joy to all the children, most of whom knew that they wouldn't be receiving anything.‎ Five years ago, we moved out of the motel. After that, my husband and I were working hard at Joe’s Crab Shack to support our family. A few days before Christmas. I was working a “big top” and a single table. The man at my table could see the large tables was taking most of my time, but I was very patient and  friendly. Between drinks and food I was able to chat with him about his family and mine. He left me $ 10, then walked out. A bout 10 minutes later, I turned around and there he was again. He gave me a hug, and put something inside my apron, telling me “ Have a Merry Christmas”. I reached into my apron and pulled out $ 800.‎ I was so overwhelmed by his generosity that I burst into tears. He had given me more than enough money to help my family catch up on our bills. After discussing what we should do with the money we had left over. We decided to buy presents for the families living at the motel, so we could pass on the blessing that we had received. Since then, it has been a tradition for us to give Christmas gifts to the families in need.‎ Last year we were able to give presents to each of the 80 children at a school in our community, and throw a Christmas party for them. This year our goal is to add at least 20 children.‎ ‎25. What does the underlined part imply?     ‎ A. They paid for checks non-stop. ‎ B. They might struggle financially.‎ C.

Nowadays women appear to have a positive image of themselves as safer drivers than men.‎ In a survey done for insurer MetLife, 51% of women said they drive more safely. The evidence is on their side: Men are 3.4 times more likely than women to get a ticket for careless driving and 3.1 times as likely to be punished for drunk driving. “Women are on average less aggressive and more law abiding (守法的) drivers, which leads to fewer accidents.” the report says. However, not all male drivers share the same opinion. Of the men surveyed by MetLife, 39% claimed male drivers were safer. The findings did back them up on one point: automotive knowledge. The report showed that more men are familiar with current safety equipment such as electronic stability control, which helps prevent rollover accidents.‎ Auto safety unavoidably matters to money. Insurance companies focus on what classes of drivers have the lowest dollar amounts of claims, and for now, that mainly includes women. In general, women pay about 9% less for auto insurance than men. A study by the website Insweb also showed that auto insurance rates are lower for women in most states. Among individual states, women get the greatest advantage in Wyoming (where they pay 20% less), South Dakota and Washington, D. C., where their insurance costs are 16% lower.‎ ‎ “More than 11,900 male drivers died in U.S. traffic accidents in 2009, compared with just under 4,900 women drivers,” according to the study. “Based on miles traveled, men died at a rate of 2.5 deaths per 100 million miles traveled, v.s. 1.7 deaths for women.”‎ ‎29. According to the study, male drivers _________..‎ A. are less aggressive while driving              ‎ B. are more skilled at auto knowledge C. are more likely to stick to driving laws       ‎ D. are less familiar with safety equipment ‎30. Insurance companies focus on female driver clients(客户) probably because they _________.‎ A. cause more accidents on the road but ask for little ‎ B. cause little damage and pay more money to the insurance companies C. make up the most part of the insurance clients D. are more careful drivers and cause less damage ‎31. We can infer from the passage that _________.‎ A. men are 3.1 times more likely to get tickets than women B. all women in the USA pay the same for their auto insurance C. more female drivers die every year than male drivers D. women are generally safer drivers than the opposite sex ‎32. The writer mainly develops paragraphs by _________.‎ A. giving examples                                                         B. making comparisons C. drawing a conclusion                                                D. presenting an argument D Most people know about the boomerang(回力棒), the legendary Australian throwing tool which, once released, returns to its owner. But have you heard of the boomerang generation? This refers to a phenomenon of people who move back home after briefly 1eaving their parents’ houses for university in Western culture. Most of these young adults were born between the mid—1970s and mid—1980s. They are likened to the boomerang because they return to their home，just like the throwing too1.‎ Monster, a job search company, reported in a survey that 48 percent of prospective(未来的)graduates planned on becoming “boomerang kids”, returning home after graduation. Although many expected to just make a quick stop before getting their own place, Monster discovered that 42 percent of graduates said they were still living with their parents.‎ What is the cause of this passive generation? It may not be only the young people’s fault. The long-term economic recession(不景气)has made it difficult for college graduates to find jobs，while the cost of living has continued to rise. And as a result, many young people have lost hope and self-confidence. Moreover, the unconditional love and support of parents allow the boomerang kids to rely on them without feeling much guilt.‎ Boomeranging is not all negative. Kids get the chance to reconnect with their parents after university, and parents get the opportunity to be a big part of their children’s adult lives, which can lead to closer bonds.‎ But critics of this phenomenon argue that this situation affects young adults. Without the stress or ambition to succeed, boomerang kids tend to become more passive in their search for good jobs, harming their professional ambitions. And finally，the extra financial burden on parents can become too heavy to bear, leading to deep and often permanent damage to the relationship.‎ ‎33. What does the passage mainly tell us?‎ A. Many young adults like boomerang B. The boomerang generation are passive C. Adult children are moving back home D. The boomerang kids are burdens on parents ‎34. What did Monster’s survey show?‎ A. Boomerang kids didn’t stay long at home.‎ B. The number of boomerang kids was large. ‎ C. Boomerang kids were close to their parents.‎ D. There were few jobs for young adults to do.‎ ‎35. What is a result of boomeranging?‎ A. Boomerang kids will be self—confident.‎ B. Parets may have a bad relationship with their kids.‎ C. Parents will be free from the burden of raising kids.‎ D. Boomerang kids tend to lose their desire for knowledge.‎ 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。‎ Is your child not included in activities or invited to play games during the break? If so, here are some ways you can help him.‎ Acknowledge your child's concerns. Let him know and understand that what he is going through is hard for him and that you will do whatever you can to help.    36    Or set up a meeting with his teachers.‎ ‎  37  If your child talks about not fitting in or being picked on, comfort him and show concern about him. Help him learn some social skills and read social situations. Let him know that many children have experienced similar feelings or situations and try to help him come up with some solutions.‎ Be your child's coach and teacher. As a coach, you need to remind him of the skills he already has. Meanwhile, just like a teacher, help him develop the skills he needs to solve the problem. 38     ‎ Get involved.   39   That will allow you to observe interactions between the other children. Seeing what the kids most enjoy, talk about, or play can give you enough information to help your children better fit in.‎ ‎  40  Sign him up for a team or activity such as an art or dance class outside his school, and observe whether he is left out by a new group of children. If so, try to find out what might discourage friendships from forming.‎ ‎ A. Comfort your child.‎ ‎ B. Identify your child's strengths.‎ ‎ C. Look for new social outlets for your child.‎ ‎ D. Consider volunteering or helping out in his class.‎ ‎ E. It is important for your child to develop his confidence.‎ ‎ F.
