She began studying medical reports in library and found an article in a magazine about a well-known heart doctor, Dr. Michael Debakey, of Houston, Texas. He had saved the life of someone with the same illness. The article said Dr. Debakey’s fees were very high; Aunt Edith couldn’t possibly pay them. But could he tell her of someone whose fee she could pay?‎ So Aunt Edith wrote to him. She simply listed her reasons for wanting to live: her three children, who would be on their own in three or four years and among them a little girl who always dreamed of traveling and seeing the world. There wasn’t a word of self-pity -- only warmth and humor and the joy of living. She mailed the letter, not really expecting an answer.‎ A few days later, my doorbell rang. Aunt Edith didn’t wait to come in; she stood in the hall and read aloud:‎ Your beautiful letter moved me very deeply. If you can come to Houston, there will be no charge for either the hospital or the operation.‎ Signed：Michael Debakey That was seven years ago. Since then, Aunt Edith has been around the world. Her three children are happily married.

I was living in Conyers, Georgia the summer it all happened. I was a second grader, but my best friend Stephanie was only in the first grade. Both of our parents were at work and most of the time they let us go our own way.‎ It was a hot afternoon and we decided to have an adventure in Stephanie's basement. As I opened the basement door, before us lay the biggest room, full of amazing things like guns, dolls, and old clothes. I ran downstairs, and spotted a red steel can. It was paint. I looked beyond it and there lay even more paint in bright colors like purple, orange, blue and green.‎ ‎"Stephanie, I just found us a project for the day. Get some paintbrushes. We are fixing to paint. " She screamed with excitement as I told her of my secret plans and immediately we got to work. We gathered all the brushes we could find and moved all of our materials to my yard. There on the road in front of my house, we painted big stripes (条纹) of colors across the pavement (人行道). Stripe by stripe, our colors turned into a beautiful rainbow. It was wonderful!‎ The sun was starting to sink. I saw a car in the distance and jumped up as I recognized the car. It was my mother. I couldn't wait to show her my masterpiece. The car pulled slowly into the driveway and from the look on my mother's face, I could tell that I was in deep trouble.‎ My mother shut the car door and walked towards me. Her eyes glaring, she shouted, "What in the world were you thinking? I understood when you made castles out of leaves, and climbed the neighbors' trees, but this! Come inside right now !" I stood there glaring back at her for a minute, angry because she had insulted (侮辱) my art.‎ ‎"Now go clean it up!" Mother and I began cleaning the road. Tears ran down my cheeks as I saw my beautiful rainbow turn into black cement.‎ Though years have now passed, I still wonder where my rainbow has gone. I wonder if, maybe when I get older, I can find my rainbow and never have to brush it away. I guess we all need some sort of rainbow to brighten our lives from time to time and to keep our hopes and dreams colorful.‎ ‎28. What did the writer want to do when his mother came home?‎ A. To introduce Stephanie to her.‎ B. To prevent her from seeing his painting.‎ C. To put the materials back in the yard.‎ D. To show his artwork to her.‎ ‎29.

It can be learned from the passage that parents should .‎ A. encourage children to paint B. value friendship among children C. discover the hidden talent in children D. protect rather than destroy children's dreams D Many people believe sharks (鲨鱼)are dangerous and will always try to hurt or even kill humans. In fact, 94 percent of the world’s 400 species are harmless to humans.‎ A shark exhibition at the National Aquarium (水族馆) in Baltimore, US proves this. Visitors can touch young sharks, see their eggs develop and watch a dozen different species(种类) swim smoothly around a huge tank.‎ Most people fail to realize that shark attacks don't happen very often. Humans are more likely to be killed by lightning than by a shark.‎ And to make this point clear, the museum has set up a special touching pool for children. There, kids can learn, from an early age, not to fear sharks. They can watch them develop inside the eggs and feel the skin of the older swimmers.‎ ‎"People fear what they don't know," said Nancy Hotchkiss, an organizer of the exhibition, which runs till December. "Sharks have been round for 400 million years and play an important role in the ocean's food chain. We want people to discover that sharks are amazing animals that need our respect and protection."‎ A shocking 100 million sharks are killed every year by humans around the world. A study, published in January in the US magazine Science, found that almost all recorded sharks species have fallen by half in the past eight to fifteen years.‎ Thousands of sharks are hunted in Asia for special foods, such as shark fin (鱼翅) soup. And many others get caught in nets, while fishermen are hunting other fish. More than half of all sharks are smaller than one meter long."Some fishing methods are actually cleaning out the ocean," said Dave Schofield, the manager of the aquarium's ocean health program. "The fishermen threw them away like rubbish."‎ It is a worrying situation and some areas have put measures in place to protect these species of fish.‎ ‎32. The main purpose of the shark exhibition is to ？‎ A. show how sharks are born and develop in the ocean B. let people know more about sharks and protect them C. let children learn not to fear sharks from an early age D. show how shark species have fallen in the past few years ‎33. In the last but one paragraph the underlined word "them" refers to 。‎ A. small sharks B. fishing boats C. fishing nets D. fishing methods ‎34. What does Dave Schofield mean by saying "Some fishing methods are actually cleaning out the ocean"?‎ A. Large sharks cannot be caught by some B. Only small sharks can be caught by some fishing methods.‎ C. The ocean is being made cleaner by some fishing methods.‎ D. Too many sharks are being killed by some fishing methods.‎ ‎35. We can infer from the passage that the writer is 。‎ A. surprised to know sharks always hurt people B. happy to know sharks are harmless to people C. worried about the present situation of shark species D. pleased to know the ocean is becoming much cleaner 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。选项中有两项是多余的。‎ How to pass an important test Whether it's a first grade science test or College Entrance Exam, all tests have one thing in common: you have to pass. __36_ Stuck in a situation where you don't know what to do?
