Twenty-one years later I am still a bright-eyed dreamer and one with quite a different tale to tell.     My grandma, an amazing woman, graduated from college at the age of 65. She was the first in our family to reach that goal. But one year after I started college, she developed cancer. I made the choice to withdraw from college to care for her. It meant that school and my personal dream would have to wait.     Then I got married with another dream: building my family with a combination of adopted and biological children. In 1999, we adopted our first son. To lay eyes on him was fantastic – and very emotional. A year later came our second adopted boy. Then followed son No. 3. In 2003, I gave birth to another boy.     You can imagine how fully occupied I became, raising four boys under the age ‎ of 8! Our home was a complete zoo – a joyous zoo. Not surprising, I never did make it back to college full-time. But I never gave up on the dream either. I had only one choice: to find a way. That meant taking as few as one class each semester.     The hardest part was feeling guilty about the time I spent away from the boys. They often wanted me to stay home with them. There certainly were times I wanted to quit, but I knew I should set an example for them to follow through the rest of their lives.     In 2007, I graduated from the University of North Carolina. It took me over 21 years to get my college degree!     I am not special, just single-minded. It always struck me that when you’re looking at a big challenge from the outside it looks huge, but when you’re in the midst of it, it just seems normal. Everything you want won’t arrive in your life on one day. It’s a process. Remember: little steps add up to big dreams. 21. When the author went to Howard University, her dream was to be _______. A. a writer  B. a teacher  C. a judge  D. a doctor 22. Why did the author quit school in her second year of college? A. She wanted to study by herself. B. She fell in love and got married. C. She suffered from a serious illness. D. She decided to look after her grandma. 23. What does the author mostly want to tell us in the last paragraph? A. Failure is the mother of success. B. Little by litter, one goes far. C. Every coin has two sides. D. Well begun, half done. 24. Which of the following can best describe the author? A. Caring and determined.      B. Honest and responsible. C. Ambitious and Sensitive      D.

Violence and traffic accidents can leave people with terrible physical and emotional scars. Often they relive these experiences in nightmares.‎ Now American researchers think they are close to developing a pill, which will help people forget bad memories. The pill is designed to be taken immediately after a frightening experience. They hope it might reduce, or possibly wipe out, the effect of painful memories.‎ In November, experts tested a drug on people in the US and France. The drug stops the body releasing chemicals that fix memories in the brain. So far the research has suggested that only the emotional effects of memories may be reduced, not that the memories are wiped out. They are not sure to what degree people’s memories are affected. ‎ The research has caused a great deal of argument. Some think it is a bad idea, while others support it.‎ Supporters say it could lead to pills that prevent or treat soldiers' troubling memories after war.‎ They say that there are many people who suffer from terrible memories.‎ ‎"Some memories can ruin people's lives. They come back to you when you don't want to have them in a daydream or nightmare. They usually come with very painful emotions," said Roger Pitman, a professor of psychiatry at Harvard Medical School. "This could relieve a lot of that suffering."‎ But those who are against the research say that maybe the pills can change people’s memories and changing memories is very dangerous because memories give us our identity. They also help us all avoid the mistakes of the past.‎ ‎"All of us can think of bad events in our lives that were terrible at the time but make us who we are. I'm not sure we want to wipe those memories out, "said Rebecca Dresser, a medical ethicist.‎ ‎29. The passage is mainly about .‎ A. a new medical invention B. a new research on the pill C. a way of wiping out painful memories D. an argument about the research on the pill ‎30. We can infer from the passage that .‎ A. taking the pill will do harm to people's physical health B. the pill will certainly stop people's emotional memories C. people doubt the effects of the pills ‎ D. the pill has already been produced and used by the public in America ‎31. Which of the following is the proper meaning of the underlined sentence?‎ ‎ A. Experiencing bad events makes us different from others.‎ ‎ B. Some memories can win people’s lives.‎ ‎ C. People want to get rid of bad memories.‎ ‎ D. The pill will reduce people’s sufferings from bad memories.‎ D Americans are proud of their variety and individuality, yet they love and respect few things more than a uniform(制服), whether it is the uniform of an elevator operator or the uniform of a five-star general．Why are uniforms so popular in the United States?‎ Among the arguments for uniforms, one of the first is that in the eyes of most people they look more professional than civilian（百姓的）clothes．People have become conditioned to expect superior quality from a man who wears a uniform．The television repairman who wears uniform tends to inspire more trust than one who appears in civilian clothes．Faith in the skill of a garage mechanic is increased by a uniform．What easier way is there for a nurse, a policeman, a barber, or a waiter to lose professional identity（身份）than to step out of uniform?‎ ‎　　Uniforms also have many practical benefits．They save on other clothes．They save on laundry bills．They are tax-deductible（可减税的）．They are often more comfortable and more durable than civilian clothes.‎ ‎　　Primary among the arguments against uniforms is their lack of variety and the consequent loss of individuality （个人）experienced by people who must wear them．Though there are many types of uniforms, the wearer of any particular type is generally stuck with it, without change, until retirement．When people look alike, they tend to think, speak, and act similarly, on the job at least.‎ ‎　　Uniforms also give rise to some practical problems．Though they are long-lasting, often their initial （最初的）expense is greater than the cost of civilian clothes．Some uniforms are also expensive to maintain, requiring professional dry cleaning rather than the home laundering possible with many types of civilian clothes.‎ ‎32．It is surprising that Americans who take pride in variety and individuality _______.‎ ‎　 A. still judge a man by his clothes B. enjoy having a professional identity ‎　 C. think highly of uniform D. will respect an elevator operator as much as a general in uniform ‎33．People are accustomed to thinking that a man in uniform _______.‎ ‎　 A. discards his social identity B. suggests quality work ‎　 C. appears to be more practical D. looks superior to a person in civilian clothes ‎34．The chief function of a uniform is to _______.‎ ‎　 A. provide practical benefits to the wearer B. make the wearer catch the public eye ‎ C. inspire the wearer’s confidence in himself D. provide the wearer with a professional identity ‎35．The best title for this passage would be _______.‎ ‎　 A. Uniforms and Society B. Advantages and Disadvantages of Uniforms　‎ ‎ C. Practical Benefits of Wearing a Uniform D. The Importance of Wearing a Uniform ‎ ‎ 第一节 ‎（共5小题；每题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。并在答题卡上将该选项涂黑．选项中有两项为多余选项。‎ As you grow rapidly through your teenage years, you will experience a lot of changes. The changes may seem difficult.    36  . Don’t panic! You will deal successfully with them! You are a young adult now! With more responsibility, you will find more freedom to make your own choices.
