I was wearing makeup like a big girl, and I was dressed in a white tutu (芭蕾舞短裙). I was so happy.‎ As I stepped backstage, I couldn’t wait to see Mommy and Grandmother’s faces; they would be so proud of me.‎ Grandparents, mothers, fathers and friends started to pour into the room. My eyes searched wildly for my mother and grandmother. All around me I saw each performer holding her bouquet (花束) of flowers in their arms. ‎ ‎“Esther.” I heard my name being called.‎ ‎“Mommy,” I replied, rushing into her arms. My eyes glanced over to my grandmother. There were no flowers. Was I not good enough? Why didn’t I get flowers?‎ ‎ Tears began to stream down my cheeks.‎ ‎“Esther, what’s the matter? You were so good on stage. Why are you crying?”‎ ‎“Flowers,” I said, as I started to cry uncontrollably. “Where are my flowers?”‎ My mother was upset and said that this was the first recital (独舞表演) in your family so she did not know about this tradition. My grandmother said that she didn’t know she should bring flowers, either. My mother drew me into her arms. My tears got absorbed into her sweater.‎ On our way home along the riverside, which was dotted with wildflowers, our car stopped. My grandmother picked a bouquet of flowers for me. She told me that I was her perfect dancer. This made the waterfall on my face run even faster.‎ As I look back on that day of my first dance recital, I realized that the bouquet my grandmother had picked for me was the most meaningful and loving bouquet that I would ever receive. Each flower that she picked was a flower of love.‎ ‎21. Why did the author cry after seeing her mother and grandmother?‎ A. She was very nervous.‎ B. She was extremely happy and excited.‎ C. She did not want to stay in the room.‎ D. She did not receive flowers.‎ ‎22. The author’s first dance recital was ________?‎ A. successful B. a failure C. held at home D. held when she was ten ‎23. Why didn’t the author’s mother and grandmother bring flowers?‎ A. They forgot to bring them.‎ B. They didn’t know they should.‎ C. They thought it was unnecessary.‎ D. They wanted to pick wildflowers for her.‎ ‎24. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?‎ A. My first dance recital B. My grandmother’s bouquet C. My mother’s big dancer D. My loving flowers.‎ B If you do someone a good turn today, don’t expect a thank you. ‘Cheers’, ‘ta’ or even ‘wicked’ is the more likely response, if a survey（调查） is to be believed.‎ Research among computer users suggests that people have stopped using the traditional expression of gratitude（感激）.‎ Almost half of those surveyed said they now use ‘cheers’ more often than ‘thank you’.‎ Four out of ten said ‘thank you’ sounded too formal and made people feel unnatural- so they used more attractive, chatty words such as ‘fab’, ‘lovely’ or ‘wicked’. A third said they would often just use a quick wave instead of saying ‘thank you’. And 77 percent said that any of the words used to say thanks were irrelevant, believing a pleasant gesture works just as well. The survey of 3,000 people was carried out by the online gift store Me to You.‎ Spokesman Caroline Weaver said, ‘While the great British public might feel ‎ uncomfortable saying thank you these days, they do like to show their gratitude in other ways. People in the survey felt it didn’t matter how you thanked someone for their kind actions, as long as you did so in a friendly and polite way. Most importantly, everyone knows that a big smile and some form of acknowledgment is all it takes to show we are grateful.’‎ Two thirds of people in the survey believed Britain was a ‘rude’ nation and 84 percent thought others should make more of an effort to show gratitude.‎ ‎25. Among people surveyed most ______.‎ A. consider ‘thank you’ attractive words B. use ‘wicked’ more often than ‘thank you’‎ C. think a gesture can also express gratitude D. use a quick wave instead of saying ‘thank you’‎ ‎26. The underlined part “did so” in the fourth paragraph refers to “______”.‎ A. did good deeds B. showed gratitude C. said ‘thank you’ D. presented a big smile ‎27. What can be inferred from the survey?‎ A. Computer users like formal words.‎ B. Most British people consider themselves friendly.‎ C. People sometimes get embarrassed at saying ‘thank you’.‎ D. Computer users are more likely to do people a kindness.‎ C When visiting New York City with your kids, there are many things to do with kids that will entertain their spirits and feed their minds. ‎ The Whispering Gallery ‎ Make your way to the Whispering Gallery. The Whispering Room’s architecture allows for a phenomenon that usually makes people laugh. Once inside the gallery, place one person facing the corner at one end of the room and then place another person facing the corner at the opposite end. Ask one of the participants to whisper a phase or a quick sentence or two and the person on the opposite end will be able to hear every word that was said. ‎ E. 42nd St ‎ ‎212-771-5322 ‎ grandcentralterminal.com ‎ The American Museum of Natural History ‎ The American Museum of Natural History was founded in 1869. In addition to its impressive exhibits, permanent attractions bring the cool factor home to kids. They can enter the Fossil Halls and see the impressive dinosaur skeletons(骨架).

With such classics as “Clifford the Big Red Dog,” “The Magic School Bus,” and “Harry Potter,” the Scholastic Store will delight your children. ‎ ‎557 Broadway ‎ ‎212-343-6100 ‎ scholastic.com ‎ Ellen’s Stardust Diner ‎ The restaurant is a place where each person in your family can find something to eat.

Which of the following websites helps kids learn about animals? ‎ A.ellensstardustdiner.com B.grandcentralterminal.com C. amnh.org D. scholastic.com ‎ ‎29. To develop your kids’ interest in reading, you can bring them to_________. ‎ A. the Whispering Gallery ‎ B. the Scholastic Store ‎ C.

It can be learned from the passage that ___________.‎ A. sound travels well in the Whispering Gallery B. people can enjoy music in the Scholastic Store C. Ellen’s Stardust Diner mainly provides western food D. the America Museum of Natural History has a history of 200 years ‎31. The passage is intended for __________.‎ A. kids B. educators C. parents D. environmentalists D Dulas is a computer-generated （计算机生成的） character created by Julia Borbolla, a Mexican child psychologist（心理学家）. It is one of the several “emotional agents” Borbolla has invented that are being recognized in Mexico City as able of coming into the inner lives of children.‎ Dulas, like all of these characters, has big eyes and radio antennas（天线）. The characters collectively go by the name Antenas because they all have antennas and come from a planet called Antenopolis. Dulas knows nothing about the life on earth, not even what a mother or father is. Wearing rabbit slippers in hospital, he doesn’t like to talk with adults—so children can trust his companionship.‎ Over the past five years, Borbolla’s characters have been used to help 2,000 children from 3 to 14 years old, and have been employed in three Mexico City hospitals and a center for disabilities in another city, Morelia.‎ Researchers have been using puppets（木偶）to help children express and deal with their feelings for decades. But Borbolla, who has been working with children for 30 years, has taken this kind of work as a step further.‎ The children meet the characters in a room, without adults present; doctors monitor ‎ （监控）with cameras. They have to handle the information carefully. One principle of the work is that a doctor must not make it known that he knows something that was said to an Antenas character privately. This keeps the trust of the child’s relationship with the character.‎ Borbolla originally got the idea to use a drawing of a cartoon character to communicate with children when she was working as a school psychologist in the 1980s. Years later, in private practice, she worked with a puppet maker to develop a software version（版本）. She spent six years improving the tool.‎ So far, Antenas hasn’t been carefully studied, and Borbolla is working with researchers to examine its effect. “I see how powerful it is,” she told me. “ It can be used to get into the souls of children.”‎ ‎32. According to the passage, Dulax ___________.‎ A. knows a lot about life on earth B. was developed by a Mexican child C. likes chatting with doctors and patients D. is a cartoon character created by a psychologist ‎33. We learn from the passage that Borbolla __________.‎ A. hopes to study Antenas further B. developed Antenas all on her own C. spent sixteen years improving Antenas D. started to create Antenas in 1990s ‎34. When children meet the characters, _________.‎ A. their parents should be present B. their doctors have to stay with them C. their parents will handle the information D. doctor’s involvement should be kept secret from them.‎ ‎35. The passage is written mainly to _________.‎ A. explain why children are interested in cartoon characters B. introduce an effective tool to understand children’s feelings C. discuss the importance of cartoon characters in children’s lives.‎ D. show some effective medicines to treat psychological diseases 第二节 七选五 (共5小题 ,每小题2分,满分10分)‎ There was once a lonely girl who longed so much for love.
