I lied about many things—I lied that 1 had eaten all my dinner, when in fact I buried it in the trash can. I lied that I had made my bed, when clearly I had not. My lies were not hurting anyone, but for some reason I felt the need to tell lies on an impulse (冲动) that didn’t feel like my own. I was labeled a liar. ‎ One day my sisters and I were invited to spend the weekend with my aunt. We all loved it. She spoiled us with her time. And she was an amazing artist. She had cool pencils, erasers and other supplies that any young girl would love to get her hands on. Then it happened... someone took one of Aunt Kim’s good art erasers and rubbed it across the entire top of the TV. The eraser ruined the shiny finish (覆光膜) on the TV’s casing. All the three of us were called into the TV room and asked to admit. Nobody did! Aunt Kim told us how disappointed she was.‎ The next thing I knew was that she was on the phone with my parents and they were on their way to picking me up. It had to be me! I was the liar. I argued, but no one listened. And then before dinner there was a knock at the front door! Aunt Kim was standing there. It turned out my younger sister finally felt guilty! She admitted that she was the one who rubbed the eraser on the TV. I was invited back! ‎ A lie may take care of the present, but it has no future. No matter how big or small your lies are, once you are labeled a liar, earning trust takes a lot of work and time.‎ ‎21. Why does the author tell lies?‎ A. She just does that out of a strong desire.‎ B. She can find pleasure in telling a lie.‎ C. She is afraid to admit her mistakes.‎ D. She likes to play tricks on others.‎ ‎22.

What’s the reaction of the author’s parents and aunt to the incident?‎ A. They felt puzzled about who did it.‎ B. None of them blamed the three girls.‎ C. They gave the author a chance to admit.‎ D. They believed it was done by the author. ‎ ‎24. What lesson did the author learn?‎ A. A bad beginning makes a bad ending.‎ B. A liar pays a lot to win trust again.‎ C. Lies can never change the fact.‎ D. An honest man will speak out.‎ B There’s been a lot of talk about white and blue collar workers, and you may have even heard of gold collar workers, but lately a new color of collar is making its way into China’s urban vernacular (方言)-green. Green collars say no when work is life and life is work. They choose to get out of the fast lane, and explore new ways of living “green”.‎ Living green doesn’t mean someone is working as an environmentalist, biologist or scientist. Instead, it is more of a lifestyle choice. A typical green collar is well-educated like a white collar but physically tough like a blue collar, likely born in the 70s or 80s and living in one of China’s big cities, with a monthly income well above 5, 000 yuan.‎ The life of a green collar may go something like this: turn off the mobile phone after work, eat only healthy food rich in vitamins, go out on hikes every weekend, and like to help the underprivileged.‎ Green collars even have their own club. In Beijing, the Green Collar Club is for people who share a “be happy, healthy and helpful” spirit. The club often holds charity parties and uses the donations for environmental protection and poverty relief projects in China.‎ ‎“They are successful in their careers, but do not miss the pleasures in life. They have a lot of money, but do not fall slave to it,” said Zuo Shiguang, one of the founding members of the club.‎ ‎25. What is the text mainly about?‎ A. The appearance of gold collar workers.‎ B. The increasing awareness of environmental protection.‎ C. The lifestyle of green collars.‎ D. New trends in big cities of China.‎ ‎26. Green collars are living green because .‎ A. they devoted themselves to environmental protection B. they spend a lot of time in the open C. they refuse to live an unhealthy life D. they have a large income ‎27. Which of the following best describes Zuo Shiguang’s attitude towards green collars?‎ A. Scolding. B. Appreciative. C. Doubtful. D. Neutrai.‎ ‎28. “the underprivileged “ in the third paragraph probably refers to those .‎ A. in unfavorable conditions B. in faraway places C. poorly educated D. in heavily polluted areas C Walk For Charity Dear Friend,‎ Please join us for our annual Walk For Charity.

He filled three pots with water and placed each on a high fire. Once the three pots began to boil, he placed potatoes, eggs and coffee beans in them. After 20 minutes, he took them out, putting the potatoes and eggs in a bowl and the coffee in a cup. Turning to his daughter, he said, “Look closer, and touch the potatoes.” She did and noted that they were soft. He then asked her to take an egg and break it. After pulling off the shell, she observed the hard-boiled egg. Finally, he asked her to taste the coffee. Its good smell brought a smile to her face.‎ ‎“Father, what does this mean?” she asked. He then explained that the potatoes, the eggs and the coffee beans were in the same adversity(逆境)——the boiling water. However, each one reacted differently.‎ The strong and hard potato became soft and weak in boiling water. The egg was fragile, with the thin outer shell protecting its liquid until it was put in the boiling water. Then the inside of the egg became hard. However, the coffee beans were unique. After they were exposed to the boiling water, they changed the water and created something new. “Which one do you want to be like,” he asked. “When adversity knocks on your door, how will you respond?”‎ In life, challenges happen to us all, but the only thing that truly matters is what happens within us.‎ ‎33. Why did the girl complain to her father?‎ ‎ A. Because of her father’s busy work.‎ B. Because of her hard life.‎ C. Because of her tiring job.‎ D. Because of the food her father cooked.‎ ‎34. What can we infer from this story?‎ ‎ A. Different people have different reactions towards adversity.‎ B. The father was good at cooking.‎ C. The girl didn’t like the potatoes and eggs.‎ D. The girl liked the coffee best.‎ ‎35. What does the underlined word “fragile” mean in the 4th paragraph?‎ A. thick B. hard C. strong D. easily-broken 第二节（共5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，选项中有两项是多余的。‎ By students, for students Xmu-baodating(厦大包打听), caiyuanbang, 7cbeike…What are they?

We all feel that having a knowledge of first aid is of vital importance. As we know, accidents and injuries can occur anytime and anywhere. Being prepared for emergency situations and being able to give first aid when needed can make a difference in a severe injury before proper medical treatment is given.‎ Therefore, we suggest that our school should launch some related activities to publicize the knowledge of first aid. For instance, courses on first aid can be offered, from which we can learn more professional knowledge in various situations. What’s more, posters about the treatment for different injuries can be put up in every corner of our campus. Finally, our school can organize the rescue drills to provide a stage for students to practice and gain hands-on experience in first aid.‎ I’m looking forward to your solid support.‎ Yours,     Li Hua
