Sometimes one or two kids would die. At this time he would tell the heart-broken parents of the children that he would be with their children in heaven and that he would look after them there.‎ There was a girl with a disease that paralyzed(瘫痪)her from the neck down. She couldn't do anything. My dad decided to help her with his true love. He started visiting her, bringing paints, brushes and paper. He began to put the paintbrush in his mouth to paint. He didn't use his hands. He would visit her whenever he could and paint for her. "You can do anything once you make up your mind to do it,” he said. Finally, she began to paint using her mouth, too.‎ Later, my dad recovered and returned to work. He worked at the volunteer counter in the hospital. One day, he noticed the front door open. In came the little girl who had been paralyzed. She was walking! She hugged my dad tightly and gave him a picture she had done using her hands. At the bottom it read: "Thank you for helping me walk again!”‎ After that my father often said love was more powerful than doctors.‎ ‎21．Which words best describe the writer's father?‎ A．Patient and funny. B．Strong and serious.‎ C．Busy and hard-working. D．Kind and optimistic.‎ ‎22．Why didn't the writer's father use his hands when painting for the girl?‎ A．He was not good at drawing. B．He liked the taste of paint.‎ C．He wanted to give the girl hope. D．He was an experienced artist.‎ ‎23．What can we infer from the writer's father's words in Paragraph 1?‎ A．He cared little about the children who died. B．He didn't think he would survive his disease.‎ C．He must know those heart-broken parents. D．He used to work as a doctor in that hospital.‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ B ‎“Computer game players should not be called addicts，although many players say they are hooked on a hobby that is affecting their social lives，”scientists said Tuesday.‎ ‎“Some evidence show that games stimulate(刺激)the same areas in the brain as alcohol and other drugs，”psychologists，sociologists and others were told at the world's first interdisciplinary(各学科间的)games conference here.‎ ‎“But unlike the addictive substances，there is no medicine to deal with gaming behavior，”they heard.‎ ‎“Is Everquest addictive？Well，it's no more addictive than school or work. The time invested in those also make them addictive，”said Florence Chee，a research student at Simon Fraser University in Canada.‎ Scientific interest in the multibillion dollar computer games industry has grown in recent years. Various governments have put pressure on the industry to add a health warning to games packages.‎ ‎“But many players actually described themselves as addicts，”said Stephen Kline，a professor and media analyst at Simon Fraser University.‎ ‎“Fifteen percent of Everquest players say，I'm addicted. Thirty percent can be considered as addicts，”he said.‎ His survey of hundreds of heavy online games players showed half of them reported family conflict and romantic failure as a result of their hobby.‎ Heavy games players can play an average 17 to 26 hours a week. The online games，in which players battle with opponents online，are considered the most attractive and time consuming.‎ Other scientists，who like Chee have carried out scientific surveys，said heavy games players were in fact sociable and not the pathological(病理上的)loners they are often made out to be. According to them，many players were members of an online“clan”to try to become more successful against opponents in the game and many had relationships with clan members in real life.‎ ‎24．The underlined word“Everquest”in the fourth paragraph may be______.‎ A．the name of an online game B．the name of a school C．the name of a job D．the name of a person ‎25．What is the view of Florence Chee，a research student at Simon Fraser University?‎ A．The online game isn't addictive.‎ B．Not all game players can be considered as addicts.‎ C．The online game is harmful.‎ D．If you spend much time on school or work，you will become addictive too.‎ ‎26．Why so many people are addicted to computer games?‎ A．Computer games are like alcohol and drugs.‎ B．This is a social problem.‎ C．The game players try to become successful against their counterparts in the game.‎ D．They are sociable and pathological loners.‎ ‎27. Which of the following is NOT true?‎ A．There is no medicine to deal with gaming behavior.‎ B．No governments have put pressure on the computer games industry.‎ C．Thirty percent of Everquest players can be considered as addicts.‎ D．Heavy games players can play an average 17 to 26 hours a week.‎ ‎ C The Queen’s English is now sounding less upper-class, a scientific study of the Queen’s Christmas broadcasts has found. Researchers have studied each of her messages to the Commonwealth countries since 1952 to find out the change in her pronunciation from the noble Upper Received to the Standard Received.‎ Jonathan Harrington, a professor at Germany’s University‎ of ‎Munich, wanted to discover whether accent changes recorded over the past half century would take place within one person. “As far as I know, there just is nobody else for whom there is this sort of broadcast records,” he said.‎ He said the noble way of pronouncing vowels (元音) had gradually lost ground as the noble upper-class accent over the past years. “Her accent sounds slightly less noble than it did 50 years ago. But these are very, very small and slow changes that we don’t notice from year to year.”‎ ‎“We may be able to relate it to changes in the social classes,” he told The Daily Telegraph, a British newspaper. “In 1952 she would have been heard saying ‘thet men in the bleck het’. Now it would be ‘that man in the black hat’. Similarly, she would have spoken of ‘the citay’ and ‘dutay’, rather than ‘citee’ and ‘dutee’, and ‘hame’ rather than ‘home’. In the 1950s she would have been ‘lorst’, but by the 1970s ‘lost’.”‎ The Queen’s broadcast is a personal message to the Commonwealth countries. Each Christmas, the 10-minute broadcast is put on TV at 3 p.m. in Britain as many families are recovering from their traditional turkey lunch.‎ The results were published in the Journal of Phonetics.‎ ‎28．What is the text mainly about?‎ A．The relationship between accents and social classes.‎ B．The Queen’s Christmas speeches on TV.‎ C．The changes in a person’s accent.‎ D．The recent development of the English language.‎ ‎29．The Queen’s broadcasts were chosen for the study mainly because ___.‎ A．she has been Queen for many years B．she has a less upper-class accent now C．her speeches are familiar to many people D．her speeches have been recorded for 50 years ‎30．We may infer from the text that the Journal of Phonetics is a magazine on ___.‎ A．speech sounds B．Christmas customs C．TV broadcasting D．personal messages ‎31．Which of the following is an example of a less noble accent in English?‎ A．“dutay” B．“citee” C．“hame” D．“lorst”‎ D ‎“You can choose your friends, but you can’t choose your family．” That line comes from American writer Harper Lee’s book To Kill a Mockingbird．Now compare her words with another famous expression: “Blood is thicker than water．” meaning that family will always be with you while other people—with no blood connection—may come and go．‎ Having strong ties to family and friends has long been identified as  an  important  part of  being happy and healthy．People need people．However,  if forced  to choose  which  is more important, American researchers now say friendship is more important than family．Their new ‎ study suggests that friends may be more important than family members．‎ The study comes from researchers at Michigan State University．They found the importance of friendship to health and happiness grow as people get older．Keeping a few really good friends around  can make a world of difference for our health and well-being．‎ The  researchers considered information from two separate surveys．The first involved just over 271,000 subjects．They participated in a study on health and happiness．The second  survey had nearly 7, 500 participants．Its purpose was to study the "relationship support" in older adults suffering from chronic(慢性病)．‎ In the first group, both family and friendships influenced overall health and ‎ happiness．However, in the second, researchers said that friendships became a stronger predictor of health and  happiness as people get older．Also in the second group, unhealthy friendships led to increased chronic conditions．but with supportive friends, the study shows, participants reported being happier． Reasons: people can keep the friendships that make them feel good and move on from the ones that don’t．Family, on the other hand, will always be with you．They can be helpful and ‎ enjoyable, but can also cause troubles．‎ In  general, friendships  affect our day-to-day  happiness  and  how long we live  so ‎ more  than relationships with  spouses(配偶)and family．Friendships keep us from being lonely．But keeping  a friendship for a long time takes work．‎ This may be good news for people who don’t have strong ties with family members．Not all ‎ of us are born into the families we need．But we all have the ability to make the friendships that we need．‎ ‎32．Why does the author mention the two expressions in the first paragraph?‎ ‎ A．To lead to the topic of the passage． ‎ B．To value the importance of the family． ‎ ‎ C．To stress the importance of friendship． ‎ D．To explain why friends and families are so important．‎ ‎33．How is the research carried out?‎ A．By doing two experiments. B．By interviewing all at once.‎ C．By conducting two surveys. D．By taking part in activities.‎ ‎34．What can the people with weak family ties do?‎ A．Develop stronger family relations. B．Make as many friends as possible.‎ C．Get more supportive friends. D．Stay with family members.‎ ‎35．Which of the following is the finding of the study?‎ A．Friends and family members are equally important.‎ B．When we grow older, friendship matters more.‎ C．As we age, family members are more valuable.‎ D．We always need friends and family members.‎ 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。 ‎ Rock Climbing as Sport and Art An estimated nine million people rock climb in the United States. Millions more take part in the activity around the world. ___36___ Others compete. Rock climbing can be dangerous. But there are many methods and protective devices that can increase a climber's safety.‎ ‎__37__ Climbers have to pull themselves straight up the face of very high rocks or walls. So they have to be strong enough to carry their own weight. And climbers sometimes have to hold on to rocks with only their fingers or toes.‎ There are several kinds of rock climbing. Traditional rock climbing is done outside. Climbers wear ropes and attach devices to the rocks as they climb many hundreds of meters up. They also connect their ropes to the devices. __38__ Sport climbing is similar. However, in those cases the protective devices are permanently placed in the rock. There is also indoor climbing. Rock walls made of wood or concrete have places for the climber's hands and feet.‎ ‎__39__ People climb glaciers or frozen waterfalls instead of rocks. They use special equipment for the ice.‎ And then there is bouldering(巨石攀岩)—climbing rocks between three and seven meters high. __40__ Many climbers like bouldering because they can use less equipment. Climbers often need only special shoes and chalk. All climbers use chalk to keep their hands dry.‎ A．Ice climbing is exactly as it sounds.‎ B．Some do it just for personal satisfaction. ‎ C．Some go climbing at weekends or in holidays.‎ D．Climbing takes strength, control and good balance. ‎ E．It is more challenging and dangerous, but also more fun.‎ F．If a climber slips, a rope can stop him from falling.‎ G．It is a quicker and more intense(剧烈的；紧张的)kind of climbing. ‎ 第三部分 英语知识运用（共两节，满分45分)‎ 第一节 完形填空（共20小题，每小题1.5分，满分30分)‎ I used to abandon(放弃) myself to despair(绝望).
