On the way home from hospital, no one said a word. One day, would I only imagine the scenery beyond the glass rather than see it?‎ ‎ That September, I entered middle school. Most nights I had homework that included an armful of books to read. To keep up with other children, I took great trouble to finish the task. With my nose a couple of inches from the page, I was tired easily. What’s worse, after I had read several pages on my own, the words slipped off the page into inky pools.‎ ‎ However, then I did not have audio books and electronic devices (电子设备) like kids do now. Instead, Mom volunteered to read out loud. Mom worked part-time, cleaned the house, cooked and spent time with Grandma. In spite of being so busy, she showed up in my room like clockwork. She put on her reading glasses. Mom always thought those glasses made her look old. To me, she looked like a teacher.‎ ‎ In my room, Mom’s voice raced with the ticking of the clock. Being forced to focus on listening, I found a way to keep my marks up and compete with the other kids. When the teacher asked a question, I raised my hand with confidence. Teachers praised me for having a good memory. Reading removed my fear for my failing sight, reading also made me curious about other people’s challenges and how they managed. Though I could not use my eyes to fix on each passage, my mind lit up with every new book.‎ ‎ True to what the doctor said, the worst came, but thanks to Mom, my sense of hearing now allows me to “see”. This was the most precious (珍贵的) gift from a mother to her child.‎ ‎4. Why did the author and his parents keep silent on their way back home from hospital?‎ A. They all wanted to have a good rest. B. The author didn’t do well in the exam.‎ C. What the doctor said made them worried. D. They focused on the scenery along the road.‎ ‎5. How did the author manage to get high marks?‎ A.

We can learn from the text that ________.‎ A. the author’s sight recovered finally B. reading made the author more sensitive C. the author’s mother didn’t work to look after him D. reading made the author not worry about his sight ‎7. Which of the following could be the best title of the text?‎ A. My eyesight trouble B. An unforgettable experience C. With ears wide open D. About Mother’s love C Tony Burke，Australia's environment minister，says he won't decide until next year ‎ whether the koala should be protected as an endangered species. He was expected to make his decision by the end of October.But that decision has been put off. Burke said he needed more time to go over the latest information about the koala's population.‎ ‎ In September, an Australian Senate committee reported that there was no question the koala's population is on the decrease.“But they may not yet be eligible(符合条件的)for listing as a threatened species,” said Senator Doug Cameron.“To have such a significant Australian icon(偶像)included on the threatened species list would be a national shame.”‎ ‎ The koala is found only in the eucalyptus(桉树)forests of Australia.And its population is reported to have fallen sharply for many reasons, including the cutting down of forests to make way for human beings' development，their own illness，climate change and killings by other animals such as wild dogs.And every year many koalas are hit by cars as they are trying to cross the busy roads.‎ ‎ Putting off the decision on protection for the koala “is really bad news,” said Debbie Pointing, the president of the Koala Action Group .“We've worked tirelessly for many years to gather data on the populations,” Pointing said.“That data should be enough to make a decision.”‎ ‎ However, Burke pointed out that the Australian government had spent at least $6.3 million on koala conservation efforts since 1996. Senators listed efforts that are already underway in Queensland－the construction of special koala bridges as well as fences along roads, to keep the animals out of harm's way.‎ ‎ Some people say that is not enough.“What we're doing at the moment is likely to drive this species to extinction,” Queensland University zoologist Bill Ellis said.‎ ‎ “Koalas are an iconic Australian animal，”Burke told Australians.“They hold a special place in the hearts of Australians.”‎ ‎ But it is a fact that if more isn't done to protect the koala, they might soon hold a place only in Australians' memories.‎ ‎8.Tony Burke put off announcing the koala as an endangered species because ________．‎ A. he needed more time to examine the latest information B. he doubted whether koalas' number is decreasing C. he was thinking about ways to protect koalas D. he had more important issues to deal with ‎9.What is Paragraph 3 mainly about?‎ A. The habitat of the koala. B. Australia's traffic problems.‎ C. The importance of koalas for Australians.‎ D. Reasons for the decrease of the koala population.‎ ‎10.It can be learned from the text that Tony Burke ________．‎ A. thought the government has done much for koalas B. thought we needn’t take care of the koala C. decided to construct more fences along roads D. was optimistic about the koala's future ‎11.What is the main idea of the text?‎ A. Australia puts off the decision on whether the koala is endangered.‎ B. Australia is taking special measures to protect koalas.‎ C. The population of koalas is reducing rapidly. D. Australians are concerned about koalas.‎ D She is widely seen as proof that good looks can last forever.But, at over 500 years of age, time_is_catching_up_with_the_Mona_Lisa．‎ ‎ The health of the famous picture, painted by Leonardo Da Vinci (莱昂纳多·达·芬奇)in 1505, is getting worse by the year, according to the Louvre Museum (卢浮宫博物馆)where it is housed. “The thin, wooden panel on which the Mona Lisa is painted in oil has changed shape since experts checked it two years ago, ”the museum said. Visitors have noticed the changes but repairing the world's most famous painting is not easy. Experts are not sure about the materials the Italian artist used and their current(现在的) chemical state.‎ ‎ Nearly 6 million people go to see the Mona Lisa every year, and many are attracted by the mystery of her smile. “It is very interesting that when you're not looking at her, she seems to be smiling, and then you look at her and she stops,” said Professor Margaret Livingstone of Harvard University. “It's because direct vision(视觉) is excellent at picking up details, but less suited to look at shadows. Da Vinci painted the smile in shadows.”‎ ‎ However, the actual history of the Mona Lisa is just as mysterious as the smile. Da Vinci himself loved it so much that he always carried it with him, until it was eventually sold to France's King Francis Ⅰ in 1169.‎ ‎ In 1911, the painting was stolen from the Louvre by a former employee, who took it out of the museum hidden under his coat. He said he planned to return it to Italy. The painting was sent back to France two years later.‎ ‎ During World War Ⅱ, French hid the painting in small towns to keep it out of the hands of German forces.‎ ‎ Like many old ladies, the Mona Lisa has some interesting stories to tell.‎ ‎12. The underlined sentence in the first paragraph means the Mona Lisa________．‎ A. is losing its value B. is being damaged after so many years C. is getting more valuable with years passing D. will rot away ‎13. The smile of the Mona Lisa can only be seen________．‎ A. by indirect vision B. at a distance C. by direct vision D. in shadows ‎14. Which of the following is TRUE about Mona Lisa?‎ A. It was once taken away and hidden up by German forces.‎ B. Its painter himself loved it greatly and always kept it in a shade.‎ C. Mona Lisa stops smiling when you look at her wanting to see her smiles.‎ D. King Francis Ⅰ bought it and then returned it to Italy.‎ ‎15. It may add to the difficulty in repairing the painting that________．‎ A. experts haven't noticed changes in its shape as visitors do B. it is likely to be stolen again when it's under repair C. it is uncertain which country, Italy or France, should take charge D. experts aren't sure about the materials and the chemical state of its oil paint E 七选五：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, 并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。选项中有两项为多余选项。‎ If you’re leading a group of people towards success, you must learn how to inspire others. ‎ ‎ Treat people kindly. ‎ ‎ As a leader, you need to treat others helping you with the deepest respect and kindness. 16 People enjoy knowing that they’re doing a good job and enjoy working with people that treat them with kindness. ‎ ‎17 ‎ ‎ When people are fully responsible, they’ll be more likely to find the motivation to complete the task. As a part of a group, they may feel their hard work matters when they’re responsible. ‎ ‎ Be a good listener. ‎ ‎ Having the final say doesn’t mean that you needn’t get any help with important decision making. 18 Always keep an open ear and you’ll be encouraging your team to come up with good solutions and creative ideas. ‎ ‎ Set realistic goals. ‎ ‎ You don’t want to set goals that are too easy. Your team might reach them quickly but they won’t be pushed to become the best they can be. 19 Your team will quickly lose motivation because they’ll never get the feeling of having met their goals. ‎ ‎ Get to know your people. ‎ ‎ Get to know your team by paying attention to their wants, needs, strengths and weaknesses. __20__ So they’ll certainly be more inspired to work hard for somebody like this. ‎ A. Give people responsibility. ‎ B. Hand out praise when it’s necessary. ‎ C. Offer a nice clean working environment. ‎ D. People will know they have a considerate leader. ‎ E. People enjoy feeling like they’re making a difference. ‎ F. A reliable neighbor also provides a safe place to talk about their leaders. ‎ G. Meanwhile, you don’t want to set goals that are impossible to achieve, either. ‎ ‎ II.完形填空（共20小题；每小题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，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。‎ An artist who had painted many pictures of great beauty found that he had not yet painted one “real” picture.‎ ‎ In his 21 along a dusty road, he met an aged priest (牧师)who asked him where he was going.“I do not know,” said the artist, “I want to paint the most beautiful thing in the world.
