Two of my friends had gone to the movies the night before and hadn’t invited me. I was in my room thinking of ways to make them sorry when my father came in. “Want to go for a ride, today, Beck? It’s a beautiful day.” “No! Leave me alone!” Those were the last words I said to him that morning. My friends called and invited me to go to the mall with them a few hours later. I forgot to be mad at them and when I came home to find a note on the table. My mother put it where I would be sure to see it. “Dad has had an accident. Please meet us at Highland Park Hospital”. When I reached the hospital, my mother came out and told me my father’s injuries were extensive. “Your father told the driver to leave him alone and just call 911, thank God! If he had moved Daddy, there’s no telling what might have happened. A broken rib （肋骨）might have pierced（穿透）a lung...” My mother may have said more, but I didn’t hear. I didn’t hear anything except those terrible words: Leave me alone. My dad said them to save himself from being hurt more. How much had I hurt him when I hurled those words at him earlier in the day? It was several days later that he was finally able to have a conversation. I held his hand gently, afraid of hurting him. “Daddy… I am so sorry…” “It’s okay, sweetheart. I’ll be okay. ” “No,” I said, “I mean about what I said to you that day. You know, that morning?” My father could no more tell a lie than he could fly. He looked at me and said. “Sweetheart, I don’t remember anything about that day, not before, during or after the accident. But I remember kissing you goodnight the night before. ”He managed a weak smile. My English teacher once told me that words have immeasurable power. They can hurt or they can heal. And we all have the power to choose our words. I intend to do that very carefully from now on. 21. The author was in bad mood that morning because _______. A. he couldn’t drive to the mall with his friends. B. his father had a terrible accident C. his father didn’t allow him to go out with his friends D. his friends hadn’t invited him to the cinema 22. Why did the author say sorry to his father in the hospital? A. Because he was rude to his father that morning. B. Because he didn’t get along with his father. C. Because he failed to come earlier after the accident. D. Because he couldn’t look after his father in the hospital. 23. The reason why the author’s father said he forgot everything about that day is that _____ A. he had a poor memory B. he didn’t hear what his son said C. he lost his memory after the accident D. he just wanted to comfort his son B The Nose on Your Face The human nose gives to the languages of the world many interesting expressions. Of course, this is not surprising. Without the nose, we could not breathe or smell. It is the part of the face that gives a person special character. In English there are a number of phrases about the nose. For example, to hold up one’s nose expresses a basic human feeling -pride. People can hold up their noses at people, things and places. The phrase, to be led around by the nose show man’s weakness. A person who is led around by the nose lets other people control him. On the other hand, a person who follows his nose lets his instinct (直觉、本能) guide him. For the human emotion of rejection, the phrase to have one’s nose put out of joint(接头) is very descriptive. The expression is not new. It was Used by Erasmus in 1542. This is only a sampling of expressions in English dealing with the nose. There are a number of others. However, it should be as plain as the nose on your. face that the nose is more than an organ (器官) for breathing and smelling! 24. This passage is about A. the human nose, an organ for breathing and smelling B. the nose giving various expressions. C. The nose is the part of the face D. The nose that gives a person his special character 25. Person who is led around by the nose A. lets his instinct guide him B. has no will of his win C. is strong-minded D. is full of imagination 26.

When you say it is "as plain as the nose on your face" you mean A. it is easy to solve B. it is a hard nut to crack C. it is something quite easy to understand D. there is a plain-looking nose on your face 28. "The nose is more than an organ for breathing and smelling" means A. breathing and smelling are the only two uses of it B. the nose is more important than any other organ C. more can be said of this human organ than its function of breathing and smelling D. other organs also have a function of breathing and smelling C Three blondes (金发碧眼的女人) were being trained to become detectives by a policeman. To test their skills in recognizing a suspect (嫌疑犯), the policeman showed the first blonde a picture for five seconds and then asked how she could recognize him. She thought it easy, for the suspect had only one eye. The policeman felt disappointed at this funny answer. He showed the second lady the picture for five seconds and asked her how she would recognize him. The second blonde giggled, flipped her hair, and said, "Ha! It’s easy to find the one-eared person!" Her answer also made the policeman angry. Turning to the third lady, he asked, "This is your suspect, and how would you recognize him?" He added quickly, "Think hard before giving a stupid answer." The third blonde looked at the picture carefully for a moment and said, "HMMMM ... the suspect is wearing contact lenses (隐形眼镜)." The policeman was surprised and speechless, because he really didn't know himself if the suspect wore contacts or not. "Well, that is a good answer. Wait here for a few minutes while I check his file." He left the room and went to his office, checked the suspect's file in his computer and returned with a beaming smile. "Wow! I can't believe it ... it's TRUE! The suspect does in fact wear contact lenses. Good work! How were you able to make such a wise observation?" "That's easy," the blonde replied, " he can't wear glasses because he only has one eye and one ear!" 29. Which of the following cannot conclude from the passage that detectives should have? A. They must be charming. B. Their observation must be keen. C. They must be humorous. D. They must be good at thinking. 30. According to the passage we can infer that ________.

The third blonde is good at thinking and needn’t any training. D. All of them may be given more training courses or fired. D Honestly, since my daughter was born, I have thought a lot about how to raise a child. I once heard a story that told about when a baby was born. The story said that when a baby was born, a new master was born. The parents of that baby would become the servants. The question is: Why? Based on my observation, this phenomenon is true. Most parents who don't pay much attention to their kids have difficulties with their kids' attitude. I'll make a comparison of how two families raise their children. The first one is a family with three children. Both mother and father never say "No" to their children's demands. As a result, all of their children became stubborn and won't listen to their parents’ words, "We can't." The second family educated their children strictly from one year old to high school. The parents never approved or agreed directly to give their children what they wanted. They always postponed one or two days, even if they could afford it. Due to the way their parents educated them, these children understood that if they wanted something, they had to wait or they had to make an effort first. As a result, all the kids from the second family successfully graduated from university on time. In my opinion, if we want to be successful parents and raise our children well, we have to start disciplining them when they are toddlers(学步小孩) but not wait until they become teenagers. 32. Why did the writer give two different stories in this passage? A. To help prove his opinion about raising a child. B. To list different ways that parents may take. C. To criticize some parents’ foolish action. D. To prove that his way of education is right. 33. What does the underlined word “postponed” in the third paragraph mean? A. Carried out at once. B. Gave up. C. Put off. D. Made a decision. 34. In the writer’s opinion, which of the following about raising a child is TRUE? A. Children should be respected once they were born. B. Parents should educate their children as early as possible. C. It is right time to educate their children when they are teenagers. D. Children should be helped whenever they make mistakes. 35. What does the word “stubborn” in the second paragraph mean? A. 愚蠢 B. 风趣 C. 幽默 D 固执 第二节 阅读短文,并选择正确答案填入空白处.选项中有两项为多余项. Ali is from a Middle Eastern country. He now stays in the USA.
