Like most families living there, we stayed in a two- bedroom suite. We were living from paycheck to paycheck, so when ‎ Christmas approached, we didn’t know if we could be able to purchase gifts for our children.‎ A few days before Christmas someone dropped off presents for all the kids that lived in 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 the 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 that the large table 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. About 10 minutes later, I turned around and there he was again. He gave me a hug, and put something in the side of my coat, telling me “Have a Merry Christmas”. I reached into my coat and pulled out $800.‎ I was so moved 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 gift to the families in need.‎ Last year we were able to give presents 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.‎ 21. What does the underlined part imply?‎ A. They paid for checks non-stop. B. They might struggle financially C. They were in heavy debt. C. They had to save money for children.‎ 22. What did the author do?‎ A. She was a nurse. B. She was a designer.‎ C. She was a waitress. D.

There the landscape of the Navajo Reservation looks very much like the lunar surface. Among all the trucks and large vehicles were two large figures that were dressed in full lunar space suits. Nearby a Navajo shepherd (牧羊人) and his son were watching the strange creatures walk about, occasionally being watched over by other NASA workers. The two Navajo people were noticed and approached by the NASA people. Since the shepherd and his son did not know English, they asked the NASA people who the strange creatures were.‎ ‎ The NASA people told them that they were just men that were getting ready to go to the moon. The shepherd became very excited and asked if he could send a message to the moon with the astronauts. The NASA officials thought this was a great idea so they provided a tape recorder. After the man gave them his message, they asked his son to translate. His son would not. Later, they tried a few more people on the reservation to translate and every person they asked would chuckle (偷偷地笑) and then refuse to translate. Finally, with cash in hand someone translated the message, "Watch out for these guys, they have come to take your land! " 24. The appearance of the Navajo Reservation is very similar to that of ________. A. the Tuba City  B. the moon C. the NASA research center  D. the Apollo moon mission 25.

A. felt frightened and ran away quickly B. chatted excitedly with the NASA workers C. got on the modern trucks and large vehicles for fun D. tried to say something to the moon creatures 26. The son did not translate the words his father said because ________. A. he had trouble in understanding his father B. the words his father used were too difficult to be translated C. his father was sending a warning against the NASA people D. he believed that the NASA workers could understand their language ‎ ‎ C ‎ Preventing obesity (肥胖) and smoking can save lives, but it doesn’t save money, reported researchers. “It was a small surprise, for it is against the common belief,” said Pieter Van Baal, who led the study. “But it makes sense. If you live longer, then you cost the health system more.”‎ The researchers found that from age 20 to 56, obese people racked up (累计) the most expensive health costs. But on average, healthy people lived 84 years. Smokers lived about 77 years, and obese people lived about 80 years. Smokers and obese people tended to have more heart disease than healthy people. Therefore in the long run, the thin and healthy group cost about $417, 000, from age 20 on. Smokers cost about $326, 000 and obese people $371, 000.‎ ‎“The result throws a bucket of cold water onto the idea, based on guesswork, that obesity is going to cost trillions of dollars,” said Patrick Basham, a professor of health politics. “If we’re going to worry about the future of obesity, we should stop worrying about its financial impact,” he said.‎ ‎“The benefits of obesity prevention may not be seen immediately in terms of cost saving in tomorrow’s budget, but there are long-term gains,” said Van Baal. “These are often immeasurable when it comes to people living longer and healthier lives.” In the meanwhile, he said that governments should recognize that successful smoking and ‎ obesity prevention programs mean that people will have a longer chance of dying of something more expensive later in life.‎ ‎“Lung cancer is a cheap disease to treat because people don’t survive very long. But if they are old enough to get Alzheimer’s (早老性痴呆症) one day, they may survive longer and cost more. We are not advising that governments stop trying to prevent obesity,” Van Baal said. “But they should do it for the right reasons.”‎ ‎27. Among middle-aged people, who may cost the health system most?‎ ‎ A. Those who are heavy smokers. B. Those who are overweight.‎ ‎ C. Those who are too thin. D. Those who are suffering from heart attacks.‎ ‎28. What can we know about the belief that obesity costs much?‎ A. It turns out to be incorrect. B. It comes from scientific study. ‎ C. It is based on medical evidence. D. It has changed over the past years.‎ ‎29. According to the text, governments prevent obesity for the purpose of _______.‎ ‎ A. reducing the risks of suffering cancer ‎ B. weakening obesity’s financial impact ‎ C. making sure of people’s long and healthy life ‎ D. reducing the money spent on medical programs ‎30. What would be the best title for this text?‎ ‎ A. Recent Medical Study Shows Truth about Health ‎ B. Preventing Obesity and Smoking May Cost More ‎ C. Obesity and Smoking Lead to Expensive Diseases ‎ D. Governments Change Attitude towards Obesity and Smoking 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。‎ Google is one of the largest and most powerful technology companies in the world.

However， there is nothing fixed about attitudes to dirt.‎ In the early 16th century， people thought that dirt on the skin was a means to block out disease， as medical opinion had it that washing off dirt with hot water could open up the skin and let ills in. A particular danger was thought to lie in public baths. By 1538，the French king had closed the bath houses in his kingdom. So did the King of England in 1546.Thus began a long time when the rich and the poor in Europe lived with dirt in a friendly way. Henry Ⅳ， King of France， was famously dirty. Upon learning that a nobleman had taken a bath， the King ordered that， to avoid the attack of disease，the nobleman should not go out.‎ Though the belief in the merit(好处) of dirt was long－lived，dirt has no longer been regarded as a nice neighbor ever since the 18 century. Scientifically speaking， cleaning away dirt is good to health. Clean water supply and hand washing are practical means of preventing disease. Yet，it seems that standards of cleanliness have moved beyond science since World War Ⅱ.Advertisements repeatedly sell the idea: Clothes need to be whiter than white，cloths ever softer，surfaces to shine. Has the hate for dirt，however，gone too far?‎ Attitudes to dirt still differ hugely nowadays. Many first－time parents nervously try to warn their children off touching dirt，which might be responsible for the spread of disease.On the contrary，Mary Ruebush，an American immunologist(免疫学家)，encourages children to play in the dirt to build up a strong immune system.And the latter(后者) position is gaining some ground.‎ 英语答案 第一部分 听力 （满分30分）‎ 1-5 ‎ BCBCA 6-10 ABBCC 11-15 ABACB 16-20 ACCBA 第二部分阅读理解（共两节，满分35分）‎ 第一节（共10小题；每小题2.5分，满分25分）‎ ‎21-23 BCA 24-26 DDC 27-30 BACB ‎ 第二节 （共 5 小题；每小题 2 分，满分 10 分） ‎ ‎31-35 GCFEA 第三部分完形填空（满分 30分）‎ ‎36-40 CCBDA 41-45 CCBAA ‎46-50 CDDCB 51-55 BDCDA 第II卷 第四部分英语知识运用（满分 15分）‎ ‎56.am allowed 57. sending/ to send 58.natural 59. responsibility 60.Typically ‎ 61. an 62.
