They said his mouth looked like a large bag. Musicians often called him Pops, as a sign of respect for his influence on the world of music.‎ ‎ Born in 1901 in New Orleans, he grew up poor, but lived among great musicians. Jazz was invented in the city a few years before his birth. Armstrong often said, “Jazz and I grew up together.”‎ ‎ Armstrong showed a great talent for music when he was taught to play the cornet (短号) at a boy’s home. In his late teens, Armstrong began to live the life of a musician. He played in parades, clubs, and on the steamboats that traveled on the Mississippi River. At that time, New Orleans was famous for the new music of jazz and was home to many great musicians. Armstrong learned from the older musicians and soon became respected as their equal. In 1922 he went to Chicago. There, the tale of Louis Armstrong begins. From then until the end of his life, Armstrong was celebrated and loved wherever he went. Armstrong had no equal when it came to playing the American popular song.‎ ‎ His cornet playing had a deep humanity and warmth that caused many listeners to say, “Listening to Pops just makes you feel good all over.” He was the father of the jazz style and also one of the best-known and most admired people in the world. His death, on July 6, 1971, was headline news around the world.‎ ‎1．Armstrong was called Pops because he . ‎ ‎ A. looked like a musician B. was a musician of much influence ‎ C. showed an interest in music D. traveled to play modern music ‎2．The third paragraph is developed . ‎ ‎ A. by space B. by examples C. by time D. by comparison ‎3．Which statement about Armstrong is true? ‎ ‎ A. His tale begins in New Orleans. ‎ B. He was born before jazz was invented.‎ C. His music was popular with his listeners.‎ D. He learned popular music at a boy’s home.‎ ‎4．Which would be the best title for the text? ‎ A. The Invention of the Jazz Music ‎ B. The Father of the Jazz Style ‎ C. The Making of a Musician ‎ D. The Spread of Popular Music B To be sure, only children﹙独生子女﹚ experienced some things differently ‎ from those with sisters and brothers. Many feel more pressure to succeed. In the absence of brothers and sisters, only children also tend to look more exclusively to their parents as role models.﹙只以父母为楷模﹚‎ In India, 10-year-old Saviraj Sankpal founded a support group for the tiny minority of only children. Among other things, the group does volunteer work to counter ﹙反驳﹚the myth﹙不真实的说法﹚ that they are not responsible. “People think we’re treated too kindly and ruined,” says Sankpal, a computer engineering student. “But I’d like to remind them how lonely it can get.”‎ Most only children, however, say they wish for sisters or brothers only when it comes to caring for aging, unhealthy parents. Britain’s David Emerson, coauthor of the book The Only Child, says that such a person bears a terrible burden in having to make all the decisions alone. Emerson knows from experience: After his father died, he chose to move his elderly mother from their family home, where she was vulnerable(易受攻击的) to house breakers, to a new one with more security﹙安全﹚. “The move was quite hard on her, and she might feel that I pushed her into it,” he says. “After all, I am left with that responsibility.” ﹙责无旁贷﹚‎ In the future, more and more only children will likely face similar choices. With working mothers increasingly the rule, many families are finding they simply don’t have the time, money or energy to have more than one child. As only children become common, perhaps the world will realize that the charge made against them is unjust.‎ ‎5．It can be inferred from the passage that the author’s attitude towards only children is 　 　　. ‎ A. critical﹙批评的﹚ B. objective﹙客观的﹚‎ C. hostile﹙不友善的﹚ D. unjust﹙不公正的﹚‎ ‎6．It can be inferred from the passage that only children’s parents should 　　　. ‎ A. find a support group for their only children B. do volunteer work to help their only children C. let their only children make all the decision alone D. set good examples for their only children ‎7．Emerson decided to move his elderly mother to a new house because he 　　　. ‎ A. is the only one who cares about her B. doesn’t want to leave her alone C. wants to share the responsibility with her D. is worried about her safety ‎8．It is quite usual now for a working mother to 　　　. ‎ A. spend all her time and money on her only child B. be responsible for bringing up her only child C. have and bring up only one child D. devote all her energy to her job ‎ C Hearst Castle is a palatial(宫殿式) park on the central California coast and a National Historic Landmark.

Late in the evening three men came into the hotel and asked for rooms. Mr Smith explained that because of the meeting, there were no rooms ready for use. The men were very unhappy because they had no place to stay in.‎ Mr Smith wanted to help them. He remembered that Room 414, a very small room, was empty. He asked them if they would share a room. The three men agreed. Mr Smith told them that the room would cost $30: $10 for each. Each of them gave Mr Smith $10, and they went up to the room.‎ Mr Smith soon began to feel sorry. “Thirty dollars is too much for that small room,” he thought. He called one of his men over and said, “Here is $ 5. Bring it to the man in Room 414. I’ve asked too much money for their room.”‎ The worker took the money from his manager. While he was on his way to Room 414, he started to think, “How can I divide $5? Well, I’ll give each of them only $1 and I keep $2. The men will be happy to get anything back. I’ll make a little money and Mr Smith will never know.” So he returned $1 to each man.‎ You see, there come a problem, each man had at first paid $10. After the worker returned them $1 each, each man had paid 9. There were three men, $9 x 3 = $27. The worker kept $2 —$27+$2=29. Where is the missing dollar?‎ ‎13. Which of the following is True?‎ A. The large meeting was held in this hotel. ‎ B. The three men stayed together in one room.‎ C. Each of the three men got a small room. ‎ D. Room 414 was the office for Mr Smith.‎ ‎14.Where was the missing dollar?‎ A. There wasn’t any missing dollar at all. ‎ B. It was taken by the worker too.‎ C. It was taken by the manager Mr Simith. ‎ D. It was taken by the three men themselves.‎ ‎15. What is the best title of this text?‎ A. The Kind Manager B. Three Men Came to the Hotel C. A Strange Maths Problem D. $27 + $2 = $29‎ 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。‎ ‎ Chinese are very generous when it comes to educating their children. Not caring about the money, parents often send their children to the best schools or even abroad to England, the United States or Australia. 16 The Chinese believe that the more expensive an education is, the better it is. So parents will spend an unreasonable amount of money on education. 17 ‎ However, what most parents fail to see is that the best early education they can give their children is usually very cheap and they should teach them the most important skills they need to be confident, happy and clever.‎ ‎ 18 Teaching a child to cook will improve many of the skills that he will need later in life. 19 It is an enjoyable but difficult experience. A good cook ‎ always tries to improve his cooking, so he will learn to work hard and gradually finish his job successfully. His result, a well – cooked dinner, will give him much satisfaction and a lot of self - confidence.‎ Some old machines, such as a broken radio or TV set that you give your child to play with will make him curious and arouse his interest. He will spend hours looking at them, trying to fix them; your child might become an engineer when he grows up. These activities are not only teaching a child to read a book, but rather to think, to use his mind. 20 ‎ A. But is it correct?‎ ‎ B. And that is more important.‎ ‎ C. Cooking demands patience and time.‎ ‎ D. They also require their children to take a lot of tests.‎ ‎ E. They also want their children to take extra - course activities.‎ ‎ F. Even poor couples will buy a computer for their son or daughter.‎ ‎ G. Parents can achieve this by teaching practical skills like cooking, sewing and doing other housework.‎ 第二部分　英语知识运用(共两节，满分45分)‎ 第一节　完形填空(共20小题；每题1.5分，满分30分)‎ 阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的四个选项(A、 B、 C和D)中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。‎ ‎ I was a single parent of four small children, working at a low-paid job.
