Take them to the other fellow on the main street; he'll fix them for you right away.”‎ But I'd had my eye on his shop for a long time. Just looking at his bench loaded with tools and pieces of leather, I knew he was a skilled craftsman. “No,” I replied, “the other fellow can't do it well.”‎ ‎“The other fellow” was one of those shopkeepers who fix shoes and make keys “while-U-wait” -- without knowing much about mending shoes or making keys. They work carelessly, and when they have finished sewing back a sandal strap you might as well just throw away the pair.‎ My man saw I wouldn't give in, and he smiled. He wiped his hands on his blue apron, looked at my shoes, had me write my name on one shoe with a piece of chalk and said, “Come back in a week.”‎ I was about to leave when he took a pair of soft leather boots off a shelf.‎ ‎“See what I can do?” he said with pride. “Only three of us in Paris can do this kind of work.”‎ When I got back out into the street, the world seemed brand-new to me. He was something out of an ancient legend, this old craftsman with his way of speaking familiarly, his very strange, dusty felt hat, his funny accent from who-knows-where and, above all, his pride in his craft.‎ These are times when nothing is important but the bottom line, when you can do things any old way as long as it “pays”, when, in short, people look on work as a path to ever-increasing consumption (消费) rather than a way to realize their own ‎ abilities. In such a period it is a rare comfort to find a cobbler who gets his greatest satisfaction from pride in a job well done.‎ ‎5. Which of the following is true about the old cobbler?‎ ‎ A. He was equipped with the best repairing tools.‎ ‎ B. He was the only cobbler in the Marais.‎ ‎ C. He was proud of his skills.‎ ‎ D. He was a native Parisian.‎ ‎6. The sentence “He was something out of an ancient legend.” (paragraph 7) implies that__________. ‎ ‎ A. nowadays you can hardly find anyone like him ‎ B. it was difficult to communicate with this man ‎ C. the man was very strange ‎ D. the man was too old ‎7. According to the author, many people work just to__________________. ‎ ‎ A. realize their abilities B. gain happiness ‎ C. make money D. gain respect ‎8. This story wants to tell us that_____________________. ‎ ‎ A. craftsmen make a lot of money B. whatever you do, do it well ‎ C. craftsmen need self-respect D. people are born equal C When I was small and my grandmother died, I couldn't understand why I had no tears. But that night when my dad tried to cheer me up, my laughs turned into crying.       So it came as no surprise to learn that researchers believe crying and laughing are controlled by the same part of the brain. Just as laughing has many health advantages, scientists are discovering that so does crying.       Whatever helps us to reduce pressure is important to our emotional health, and crying seems to work well. One study found that 85 percent of women and 73 percent of men report feeling better after crying.       Besides, tears attract help from other people. Researchers agree that ‎ when we cry, people around us become kinder and friendlier and they are more ready to provide support and comfort. Tears also enable us to understand our emotions better; sometimes we don't even know we're very sad until we cry. We learn about our emotions through crying, and then we can deal with them.       Just as crying can be healthy, not crying---holding back tears of anger, pain or suffering-can be bad for physical health. Studies have shown that too much control of emotions can lead to high blood pressure, heart problems and some other illness. If you have a health problem, doctors will certainly not ask you to cry. But when you feel like crying, don't fight it. It's a natural, healthy and emotional response.‎ ‎9. It can be inferred from the text that____________________.                     ‎ A. there are two ways to keep healthy B. emotional health has a close relationship to physical health C. crying and laughing play the same roles D. crying does more good to health than laughing ‎10. According to the author, which of the following statements is true?‎ A. Crying is the best way to get help from others. B.  Fighting back tears may cause some health problems. C.  We will never know our deep feelings unless we cry. D.  We must cry if we want to reduce pressure.‎ ‎11. What might be the most suitable title for the text?‎ A. Why We Cry                  B. How to Keep Healthy C. Power of Tears               D. New Scientific Discovery D As Internet users become more dependent on the Internet to store information, are people remembering less? If you know your computer will save information, why ‎ store it in your own personal memory, your brain? Experts are wondering if the Internet is changing what we remember and how.‎ In a recent study, Professor Betsy Sparrow conducted some experiments. She and her research team wanted to know the Internet is changing memory. In the first experiment, they gave people 40 unimportant facts to type into a computer. The first group of people understood that the computer would save the information. The second group understood that the computer would not save it. Later, the second group remembered the information better. People in the first group knew they could find the information again, so they did not try to remember it.‎ In another experiment, the researchers gave people facts to remember, and told them where to find the information on the Internet. The information was in a specific computer folder. Surprisingly, people later remember the folder location better than the facts. When people use the Internet, they do not remember the information. Rather, they remember how to find it. This is called "transactive memory".‎ According to Sparrow, we are not becoming people with poor memories as a result of the Internet. Instead, computer users are developing stronger transactive memories; that is, people are learning how to organize huge quantities of information so that they are able to access it at a later date. This doesn't mean we are becoming either more or less intelligent, but there is no doubt that the way we use memory is changing.‎ ‎12. The passage begins with two questions to ___________________. ‎ ‎ A. introduce the main topic B. show the author's attitude C. describe how to use the Internet D. explain how to store information ‎13. What can we learn about the first experiment?‎ A. Sparrow's team typed the information into a computer. ‎ B. The two groups remembered the information equally well.‎ C. The first group did not try to remember the information. ‎ D. The second group did not understand the information.‎ ‎14. In transactive memory, people ___________________.‎ A. keep the information in mind B. change the quantity of information ‎ C. organize information like a computer D. remember how to find the information ‎15. What is the effect of the Internet according to Sparrow's research? ‎ A. We are using memory differently. B. We are becoming more intelligent.‎ C. We have poorer memories than before. D. We need a better way to get information.‎ 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。‎ Tips to Create Great Readers Are great readers born or are they made? Obviously, children don’t enter the world knowing how to understand a text or make a prediction. ______16_______. Here are some tips for making children great readers by habit. ‎ ‎______17_______. The most critical moment in reading instruction is when children get something wrong. If the child continues practicing the skill incorrectly, he or she will build weaker habits. Intervene (干预) with a targeted question, such as “How does this part of the text help you understand this character?” Doing so can prevent poor habits from taking root and build great ones in their place. ‎ Build habits at the moment of writing. Just like adults, children use writing to gather their thoughts about a text and communicate their ideas to others. _____18________. For example, children can first have a discussion about what they’re reading by answering a focus question in writing: “What is the author trying to teach us in this story?” ______19_______. By doing this, you can get a better understanding of what guidance the children will need during the discussion. ‎ Build habits at the moment of reading. Independent reading time is important for any reading program. It’ s a chance for children to put together everything they’ve learned in reading lessons and fly using their own wings.‎ ‎ _____20________. So providing a rich class library and letting children know that they are expected to read for the entire period will ensure their success as lifelong independent readers.‎ A. Then, you can review their written responses.‎ B. Therefore, you can develop their writing and reading skills at the same time.‎ C. They grow into great readers by learning great habits.‎ D. Make sure children fall in love with reading.‎ E. But it only works if they really do spend that time reading.‎ F. Build habits at the moment of error.‎ G. Specific lines or phrases from the text help to reveal that information.‎ 第二部分 完形填空（共20题；每题1.5分，满分30分）‎ ‎ 阅读下面短文，从短文后面各题所给出的四个选项（A, B, C和D）中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上把该项涂黑。‎ I sat down at my desk and started writing a letter of thankfulness, but when it came to actually putting the letter into the mailbox...
