Some rested on benches, 43 up at the ceiling 44 it were a film of the opposing team's play. Some seemed a bit more 45 , using the time to tell jokes. A few stared at the field, 46 what would happen in 120 minutes.‎ Our coach, Tony Severino, came out of his office at 6 o' clock. He told the team how 47 this game was for the season, between two of the state's top teams — my school and our opposing team, Liberty High School. His words gave the team impulse(冲动）it needed to 48 .‎ At 7:10 pm, warm-ups finished, we went over the game 49 and discussed what we needed to do for the next three hours.

On this clear night he 52 looked around the room at all the players and shouted, “Let's go and get them.” Even 53 the “get” came out of his mouth, we were already 54 our way out of the door.‎ Outside, a few young fans rose to their feet to touch our hands, eager to be a 55 of our school' s winning tradition. When I smiled and 56 my hand, the young faces lit up as if they had just met Superman.‎ Seconds later, the team ran onto the 57 , moving as a mass of blue, in front of a packed stadium.

Even though there are differences between the two generations in some cases, it's still possible to have fun and also to learn from each other. I have had several older friends in my life and they all taught me something a little bit different about life.‎ When I was a child, my mother had a wonderful lady come into our home to provide housekeeping services. This woman was retired and might have been in her mid to late sixties at that time. Although her job was to clean our house, this woman provided much more than that. She was always there for me on the days she came to work. During the course of the days when I was ill, she would make sure that I was comfortable and cared for properly. In my childhood, I considered her a second mom. As I grew into my teen years, she became one of my best friends.‎ During my teen years, I was often home during the summers and Girtha and I would eat lunch together. We could talk about anything and laugh together as well.‎ I learned a lot about life from Girtha. She had a very deep faith and read her Bible regularly. Even though her circumstances were difficult, she never complained and always showed compas/on (‎ 同情)for others. She always rode the bus to and from work and refused our offers to drive her home in the evenings because she felt that she lived in an undesirable neighborhood and was very concerned for our safety.‎ In her later years, Girtha's health declined and she had to stop working. She eventually moved to another state so her daughter could care for her. Early in my college career, I received a phone call telling me that Girha had died, which saddened me a lot. I still miss her to this day.‎ Girtha was unique in her own way, but through several matters, she touched my life and my heart in a very special way. Maybe it's time for me to review those lessons in everlasting faith.‎ 61. Why does the author think having older friends is wonderful?‎ A. Because they have a deep understanding of life.‎ B. Because they are relatively easier to deal with.‎ C. Because they know our history very well.‎ D. Because the two generations have something in common.‎ 62. The author considered Girtha a second mom when young because of .‎ A. her insight into history B. her loving care C. her housekeeping services D. her unique personality 63. According to the author, Girtha was thought to be the following EXCEPT .‎ A. optimistic and kind-hearted B. considerate and compassionate C. hospitable and knowledgeable D. caring and faithful 64. Why did Girtha refuse our offers to drive her home?‎ A. Because she would rather not to bother us.‎ B. Because she was worried about our safety.‎ C. Because she was used to taking a bus.‎ D. Because she felt ashamed of her poor living conditions.‎ 65. The author wrote the text to .‎ A. introduce the life story of Girtha B. show the advantages of older friends C. tell us the influence Girtha had on him or her D. advise the young to make friends with the old B What people say is only one aspect of good communication. Good listening skills and body language are also important for us to effectively communicate with others. Effective communication involves more than talking to a person. How things are said, words are chosen and tones are adopted are all aspects of good communication.‎ Body language, a common form of non-verbal communication, can support what a speaker is saying. Studies have shown that of the information that is received from other people, only 10% is from what they say and 40% is from the tone and speed of their voice. The other 50% is obtained from their body language. Reading body language is part of developing social skills.‎ Some professionals, such as lawyers, governmental security officers and doctors on mental problems, learn to read every type of body language of others to help in their jobs. They look for specific signs, while the average person reads some body language subconsciously. Body language can involve one aspect such as the eyes, or the use of different body parts. Where the body is positioned in relation to another person or at a table is another piece in communicating what the person is ‎ feeling. Troubles may arise when body language is misunderstood.‎ Good listening skills clear the way to a clear message while bad listening skills create barriers which can confuse or stop the message. Good listeners can use body language by nodding occasionally to show interest and understanding, make eye contact with the speaker, repeat some of the words and feelings, and summarize what they have heard. All these can avoid communication troubles.‎ Poor listeners rarely communicate effectively. Barriers they commonly use may include: interruptions, inappropriate humor, judgments, criticisms, and unrelated questions. People who are attempting to communicate with a person who continually throws out barriers will often stop talking and they even get angry as they feel misunderstood and frustrated. Healthy minded people are able to communicate with others effectively by avoiding these barriers. They are able to let their partners know what they want regularly and clearly.‎ 61. What can we learn from the first paragraph?‎ A. Speakers usually pay little attention to what they said and what words and tones they use.‎ B. Good communication means talking to a person effectively with right tones and speed.‎ C. Body language and listening skills are highly involved in successful communication.‎ D. The manner of communication is determined by the listener rather than the speaker.‎ 62. According to the studies, body language .‎ A. makes up 40% of the information received from communication B. sometimes leads people to misunderstand what others have said C. can remind the listeners of what the speakers are actually expressing D. can only be correctly read by people with excellent social skills 63. What does the underlined word “subconsciously” in Paragraph 3 probably mean?‎ A. Unknowingly. B. Systematically. C. Perfectly D. Skillfully.‎ 64. Which of the following reactions of a listener may create difficulties in communication?‎ A. Making a summary of what he has heard.‎ B. Repeating the speaker's words and ideas.‎ C. Showing his feeling to the speaker.‎ D. Bringing in an unrelated topic suddenly.‎ 65. What's the author's purpose of writing this text?‎ A. To emphasize that communication involves more than talking.‎ B. To introduce different types of non-verbal communication.‎ C. To suggest ways to effectively communicate with others.‎ D. To discuss the different effects of good and poor listening skills.‎ C 1 Many of us have fond childhood memories of snuggling up next to a parent, listening to what he or she reads to us. Interestingly, once upon a time, a doting mother asked Albert Einstein what she should read to her son to help him grow up as brilliant and intelligent as the famous scientist.‎ 2 ‎“Fairy-tales(神话故事),” he said, wisely nodding his head.‎ 3 Why? Why would Albert Einstein — the Nobel Prizes winning physicist recommend reading fairy-tales? Was he joking? All the evidence suggests he was deadly serious. He also said, “When I examine myself and my methods of thought, I come to the conclusion that the gift of fantasy has meant more to me than any talent for abstract, positive thinking.”‎ 1 Childhood is one of the factors that b/"厂(使变模糊）the differences between the self and other objects. Thus fantasy stories appeal to children and appear to make sense to them.‎ 2 There are several commonly accepted genes (流派）of fantasy, “Animal Fantasy” which centers around the lives of lovable talking animals and “Modern Fantasy” which focuses on adventures in other worlds and magical events. I would like to add a third genre “Human and Animal Fantasy”, which mixes human and animal characters. Another genre of fantasy may be “High Fantasy” which features heroes who fight against evil and save the world from destruction.‎ 3 Fantasy feeds a child's imagination and encourages creativity. The enjoyment that the genre produces promotes reading and enhances literacy. Moreover, the fantasy genre may be used for teaching purposes. For example: A story about cruelty to animals would limit appeal to a child; however, a fantasy celebration of closeness between the children and their pets may give an element of excitement as the children are able to save animals from someone with cruel intentions.‎ 4 Children love the Harry Potter series, and if they only see the movies they miss a great opportunity to develop their reading skills by spending time with the lovable young wizards and witches of the Hogwarts community.‎ 61. Albert Einstein recommended reading fairy-tales because .‎ A. he was just joking with the mother B. he thought his success was largely due to his gift of fantasy C. he got some scientific ideas from fairy-tales D. the gift of fantasy equals to the talent for abstract, positive thinking 62. A student who likes reading about heroes will probably read .‎ A. Animal Fantasy B. Modern Fantasy C. Human and Animal Fantasy D. High Fantasy 63. Which of the following best gives the main idea of the sixth paragraph?‎ A. Fantasy can be educational to children.‎ B. Fantasy can bring great joy to children.‎ C. Children should not read stories about animals.‎ D. Fantasy can teach children to be kind to animals 64. Children are advised to read the Harry Potter series because .‎ A. the books are better than the films B. the books can help improve children's reading ability C. the films are not true to the original stories in the books D. children can spend time with the lovable young wizards and witches of the Hogwarts community.‎ 65. The author of the passage believes .‎ A. Human and Animal Fantasy is most suitable for children B. all genres of fantasy are suitable for children C. only by reading fantasy can children become educated D. fantasy can benefit children in many ways 第II卷 I. 根据所给的首字母和中文写出所缺单词的芫整形式，注意有的需要词形变化（每空0.5 分，满分5分）。‎ 1. ‎ As time passed, the carnival period was e (延长),so it began just after Christmas.‎ 1. ‎ We can't g (担保)you a window seat on Oct. 1 if you don't book in advance.‎ 2. ‎ Some companies, unlike HUAWEI, seem c (谨慎的）about investing more money in research and development.‎ 3. ‎ College students are encouraged to take part-time jobs to a (积累）‎ social experience needed for their future career.‎ 4.
