I didn’t doubt it until I called Jesse’s number to remind Liz that it was her turn to walk the dog, and Jesse’s mom picked up the phone and said, “I thought she and Jesse were planning to be at your house.” It turned out that the two of them had decided to hang out at a coffee shop instead. When I questioned my daughter, she replied coldly, “What’s the big deal? You’re such a psycho(精神变态者).”‎ Can you say it is right or wrong for them to behave like that? Their changeable personalities leave you feeling angry and guilty at the same time. In fact, if your kids don’t annoy you from time to time, you’re not doing your job.‎ ‎“There’s nothing wrong about being angry with your child,” Says Laurence Steinberg, Ph.D., author of The 10 Basic Principles of Good Parenting. “Conflict is natural when your innocent, lovely child turns into an adolescent who can hardly tolerate (忍受) you. It’s part of the process of separation.” Kids insisted on their individuality with behavior to purposely drive you crazy. It’s their way of saying, “I am my own person” -- but doing it in a context that’s safe and that has clear limits.‎ So when your little darling changes into a silent person who still expects meals, clothing, and transportation, don’t panic. Here’s how to handle some common problems without losing your temper or your self-respect.‎ ‎56. It can be learned from the first paragraph that ________.‎ A. Jesse’s mother told a lie B. the writer was too sensitive C. Liz told a lie to her mother D. the writer’s daughter stayed at Jesse’s house ‎57. By saying “In fact, if your kids don’t annoy you from time to time, you’re not doing your job”, the writer probably means that _________.‎ A. when you are doing a job, your kids shouldn’t annoy you B. parents should be responsible for children’s bad behavior C. parents shouldn’t tolerate their children’s bad behavior D. it’s understandable for kids to annoy their parents ‎58. What’s the main idea of the third paragraph?‎ ‎ A. It’s right for parents to be angry with their children.‎ B. It’s allowed for children to do anything as they like.‎ C. It’s bad behavior for children to drive their parents angry.‎ D. It’s normal for adolescents to go against the wishes of their parents sometimes.‎ ‎59. What would the writer state in the following paragraphs?‎ A. How to be good parents. ‎ B. How to be good children.‎ C. Rules for children to follow. ‎ D. How to deal with adolescents’ common problems properly.‎ B One day when Mr Smith came home from work, he found his wife very angry about something. Mr Smith always thought that he was more reasonable than his wife, so he started to give her a lecture on the importance of always remaining calm.‎ Finally he said, "It's a waste of your strength to get excited about small things. Train yourself to be patient, like me. Now look at the fly that has just landed on my nose. Am I getting excited or angry? Am I shouting or waving my arms around? No, I'm not. I'm perfectly calm."‎ Just as he had said this, Mr Smith started shouting. He jumped up and began to wave his arms around wildly and cry terribly. He couldn't speak for some time, but at last he was able to tell his wife: the thing on his nose hadn't been a fly, it had been a bee. ‎ ‎60. The first thing Mr Smith did after he got home one day was that _______.‎ A. he taught his wife a lesson, as usual B. he tried to persuade his wife to take it easy C. he advised his wife to have a good rest D. he started to quarrel with his wife ‎61. We may conclude that Mr Smith _______.‎ A. was cruel to his wife B. was impatient with his wife C. was fond of his wife D. looked down on his wife ‎62. What did Mr Smith do when he discovered what it was on his nose? ‎ A. He stood still. B. He went on with his lecture. C. He remained calm. D. He couldn't control himself.‎ ‎63. This passage was probably written to _______.‎ A. tell you how to be patient when something unpleasant comes up B. show what to do if you have a family member who gets excited easily C. entertain you by telling an interesting story D. show the difficulty of dealing with a family member who gets excited easily C Dear Readers,‎ Think about an 11-year-old child spending her days washing clothes, looking after a baby brother, and doing hard work on the farm.‎ Think about the poor little girl—she knows there will not be enough food for dinner, and has no water to drink because it is not clean. She has watched her father, brother and sister lose their lives as the family has no money to send for a doctor.‎ Hard to believe? For Maria Pastora, these are the facts of life.‎ Maria would gladly walk to school, but her mother, now alone, really needs her at home. Maria has to leave school to work for her poor family.‎ But with only five dollars a week, you can help out a child like Maria. Show her that somewhere, someone will help her. Through Save the Children, you can help Maria’s mother get better crops from their farm, and earn the money to support the family.‎ To help Maria most, your money is to be put together with other helpers’, so hardworking people can help themselves. Build a school or a hospital, make their farm better, and bring in clean water... This is what Save the Children has been about since 1932.‎ For you there are many returns. You can write letters to each other, get photos, or study reports. Know you are helping and saving another person in the same world as you. That’s how Save the Children works. But without you, it can’t work. Please take a moment to fill in this form to help a child like Maria and her village.‎ It can make such a difference in her life and yours.‎ Save the Children David L.

Maria and you can help each other at school D It was Saturday when the entire summer world was bright and fresh. Tom looked at the fence, which was long and high, feeling all enthusiasm leaving him. He dipped his brush into the whitewash before moving it along the top board of the fence. He knew other boys would arrive soon with all minds of interesting plans for this day. As walking past him, they would tease him for having to work on a beautiful Saturday—which burnt him like fire. ‎ He, putting his hands into his pockets and taking out all he owned with the expectation of letting someone paint, found nothing that could buy half an hour of freedom. At this dark and hopeless moment, a wonderful idea occurred to him, pouring a great bright light into his mind. He took up his brush and continued to work pleasantly with calm and quietness.‎ Presently, Ben Rogers came in sight—munching an apple and making joyful noises like the sound of a riverboat as he walked along. Tom went on whitewashing, paying no attention to the steamboat. “Hello!” Ben said, “I’m going swimming, but you can’t go, can you?”‎ No answer. Tom moved his brush gently along the fence and surveyed the result. Ben came nearer. Tom’s mouth watered for Ben’s apple while he kept painting the fence.‎ Ben said, “That’s a lot of work, isn’t it?”‎ Tom turned suddenly saying “Here you are! Ben! I didn’t notice you.” ‎ ‎“I’m going swimming,” Ben said. “Don’t you wish you could go? Or would you rather work?” Tom said, “Work? What do you mean ‘work’?”‎ ‎“Isn’t that work?” Tom continued painting and answered carelessly, “Maybe it is, and maybe it isn’t. All I know is it suits Tom Sawyer.”‎ ‎“Do you mean that you enjoy it?”‎ ‎“I don’t see why I oughtn’t to enjoy it.”‎ ‎“Does a boy have a chance to paint a fence frequently” said Tom.‎ Ben stopped munching his apple.‎ Tom moved his brush back and forth—stepped back to note the effect—added a little paint here and there. Ben watched every move, getting more and more interested, more and more absorbed1. After a short time, he said, “Tom, let me whitewash a little.”‎ Tom seemed to be thinking for a moment before he said, “No, Aunt Polly wants this fence to be perfect. If it was the back fence, maybe you could do it. But this fence beside the street is where everybody can see it. It has to be done right.”‎ ‎“Oh, come on, let me try. I’ll be careful. Listen, Tom. I’ll give you part of my apple if you let me paint.” “No, Ben, I’m afraid—” “I’ll give you all the apple!”‎ Tom handed the brush to Ben with unwillingness on his face but alacrity in his heart. While the riverboat ‎ worked and sweated in the hot sun, Tom, an artist sat in the shade close by, munching his apple, and planning how he could trick more of the boys. ‎ Before long there were enough boys each of whom came along the street; stopped to laugh but soon begged to be allowed to paint. By the middle of the afternoon, Tom had got many treasures while the fence had had three layers of whitewash on it. If he hadn’t run out of whitewash, he would have owned everything belonging to the boys in the village.‎ Tom said to himself that the world was not so depressing after all. He had discovered a great law of human action: in order to make a man cover a thing, it is only necessary to make the thing difficult to attain.‎ ‎67. By using “Tom continued painting and answered carelessly”, the author shows Tom ______ when he was talking to Ben.‎ ‎ A. made mistakes B. damaged things C. was natural D. wasn’t concentrating ‎68. The underlined word “alacrity” in the last but two paragraph most probable means “______”.‎ ‎ A. kindness B. discouragement C. sympathy D. eagerness ‎69. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage? ________‎ ‎ A. Tom did not want to go swimming at all B. Tom was asked to help Aunt Polly paint the fence ‎ C. Tom did not get along well with his friends D. Tom was very busy that Saturday afternoon.‎ ‎70. We can draw a conclusion from the last paragraph that _______.‎ ‎ A. forbidden fruit is sweet. B. a friend in need is a friend indeed.‎ ‎ C. all good things must come to an end. D. a bad excuse is better than none.‎ 第四部分：任务型阅读 (共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分。）‎ 请认真阅读下列短文，并根据所读内容在文章后图表中的空格里填入最恰当的单词。注意：每空一词。‎ Preparing meals three times a day takes a great deal of time, so more and more people eat out. But how do we keep a healthy balance when eating out? There are a few simple things we can do to improve our overall health when eating out.‎ The first thing to take into consideration is portion( 份量) size. This is a huge problem in eating out that can often lead to weight gain. Most restaurants provide larger meals than you should be eating in one sitting. So a basic key to eating out is eating less of your main meal. One way to control this if you’re at a restaurant is to ask only half your meal to be brought out and the other half boxed to take home for later. If you’re eating fast food, a good way to go is ordering a kid’s meal which has more proper portions.‎ However, we all want to be satisfied at the end of a meal and how do we do that if we aren’t eating tons of food? We can help control our appetite(食欲) in many ways. One way is to carry around healthy snacks that you can take between meals to help with your hunger. Another suggestion is to drink one or two full cups of water before eating your meal. Not only is water important to your health, but it’ll help you become full faster.‎ One more thing to think about is making healthy choices to start with. Order a cup of water instead of coffee or alcohol. Water helps you cut out needless calories. Most menus now have meals with low fat. Go for those meals. Also think about healthy soup instead of the fries the meal comes with, or fresh fruit.‎ In short, we can eat out in a healthy way if we just pay attention to what we eat and how we eat it. Then our health won’t get out of control because we eat out.‎ Title: How to eat out in a healthy way Tips ‎（71） ▲ ‎ ‎（72） ▲ ‎ portion size ‎●Asking only half your meal to be brought out and the other half boxed to take home for later.‎ ‎●Ordering a kid’s meal （73） ▲ more proper portions when eating fast food ‎● Eating less of the ‎ main meal.‎ ● Avoiding（74）▲ ‎ weight.‎ Controlling appetite Carrying around healthy （75） ▲ ‎ Helping with your hunger between （76） ▲ ‎ Drinking 1-2 full cups of water before the meal.‎ ‎●Doing （77） ▲ ‎ to your health.‎ ● Helping you become ‎ full faster.‎ Making healthy ‎ choices to start with ‎●（78） ▲ a cup of water instead of ‎ coffee or alcohol.‎ ‎●Going for meals with low fat.‎ ‎●Choosing soup or（79） ▲ to go with ‎ the meal.‎ Helping cut out （80） ▲ calories.‎ 第五部分 单词拼写（共10小题，每小题1分,共10分） ‎ ‎81.During the ceremony, the hen laid an egg, and everyone  （道贺，祝贺）the new couple because it was considered very lucky.‎ ‎82.It is quite funny watching the new foreign teachers trying to _______(适应，调整/节) to doing that.‎ ‎83.You will have the chance to join one of these large assemblies and take part in the dancing, listen to traditional （描述，叙述；账目） of bravery, and play games.‎ ‎84.If you speak their language you will get a friendlier ________ (接待)．‎ ‎85.This custom is very popular among some (少数民族).‎ ‎86.Thinking this way gives me the m to work hard now so that I can enjoy my future life. ‎ ‎87.

A survey on teenagers studying overseas has been conducted recently, and people have different attitudes towards the situation.‎ ‎38% of the people investigated agree to this. They think their children can receive better education and learn a foreign language as well. And they have more golden opportunities to develop themselves. What is the most valuable is to learn to depend on themselves and to broaden their horizons and improve their understanding of the world. ‎ However, over 62% of the people, especially some educationists and parents, are not in favor of this, for they think studying abroad costs over ten times as much money as in China. The too high cost is undoubtedly a heavy burden to their families．Besides, children are too young to take care of themselves. Many parents worry about the safety of their children. What’s more, they might follow bad examples.‎ ‎ In my opinion, measures should be taken by the government to set up various schools and colleges to meet the needs of the people.‎
