As time passed, teachers finally knew all of their students and slowly everyone began to head inside, except for me. No one called out my name, and no one seemed to know I existed. I spent the next month in my new classroom quietly. I felt a wave of fear, loneliness and sadness came over me.‎ It turned out the school administration never cared that I didn't speak English, but something else was teaching me English. Every morning when my aunt drove me to school and picked me up, she always had 106.7 Light FM on. It was this station that introduced my young ears to the English sounds of R&B, soul, jazz and much more.‎ Because of Sabrina the Teenage Witch, I learned the difference between "witch" and "which". While watching the TV show South Park, I was attracted by the funny characters. I related "You bastards!” to anger and saved it in my ‎ mental word bank. In fact, thanks to pop culture, the world of English became not so hard to me while it was being turned down at school.‎ I also learned how to express my emotions thanks to pop culture. One day at school, we were taking a math quiz and the whole class was quiet. Suddenly, the tip of my pencil broke and I yelled, “You bastards!" Everyone held their breath in surprise and I laughed to myself because something at that moment told me I had just learned my first bad word in English.‎ Four months passed before the school placed me into an ESL program. By this time, I was speaking broken English and making myself understood. Finally, I learned how to speak and write English at a more advanced level, and I owe it all to pop culture.‎ ‎24.Why did the author feel sad when she moved to the US?‎ A. She missed her hometown. B. She was ignored at school C. She was blamed for poor grades. D. She hated learning a new language.‎ ‎25.How did the author first learn English?‎ A. By talking with her aunt. B. By working in radio stations.‎ C. By listening to English songs. D. By making friends with her classmates.‎ ‎26.How did the author feel after realizing she yelled “You bastards!”?‎ A. Happy. B. Annoyed.‎ C. Surprised. D. Nervous.‎ ‎27.What can be the best title for this passage?‎ A. My life experiences in the U.S B. How I fell in love with music C. Pop culture taught me English D. How I overcame learning difficulties C My favorite book, The Secret by Rhonda Byrne, talks about a formula called “SFF” which stands for “stopping finding faults”. I used to be a critical person and tried to find faults. I guess I somehow inherited this character from my father. Actually many good qualities of my father are worth admiring except this.‎ My father is the person who constantly looks for mistakes in other people and he thinks no one is perfect in the world. His character created a negative atmosphere in my family. I was the same as my father, so I often felt angry, disappointed, depressed, and lonely in school.‎ After I had read my favorite book I began to seek “good things” in other people. It has completely altered my life. Now I feel happier, I have more friends, I have more trust in people, and I realize everyone has their own strength! Another important lesson I got from this book is that I should always behave myself in a positive manner. Let’s admit that we sometimes complain about our situation. That’s not good. “Believe it or not, people don’t like to listen to negative opinions.”‎ One more valuable lesson I got from the book is that I should be a good listener. When I was younger, I only wanted people to pay whole attention to my words so that I could show them how important I was. I was very proud and would show off my achievements in school without considering others’ feeling. I had very few friends and most ‎ people considered me as an “arrogant” person. Now, I find it much easier to make friends after making some changers!‎ ‎28.Why does the author like the book The Secret?‎ A. Because he’s found the secret of success from it.‎ B. Because the book uncovers the secrets of happiness.‎ C. Because he’s learnt his father’s characters from it.‎ D. Because it helps him change his attitude towards life.‎ ‎29.What do you know about the author’s father?‎ A. He makes his son feel angry and disappointed.‎ B. He likes finding faults with people around him.‎ C. He seems a critical person but in fact easy-going.‎ D. He can create a negative atmosphere when necessary.‎ ‎30.The underlined word “arrogant” probably means “________”.‎ A. self-important B. admirable C. troublesome D. cold-blooded ‎31.What is the author’s purpose in writing the text?‎ A. To persuade readers to be good listeners.‎ B. To share his painful changing experience.‎ C. To tell readers the influence of a book on him.‎ D. To show the result of his father’s negative character.‎ D ‎ The impression you make at the beginning of an interview is very important Employers often decide to hire someone in the first three minutes of the interview. They judge you by your appearance, attitude and manners.‎ A friendly smile when you walk into the room is important. A smile shows a confident and positive attitude.When you introduce yourself, make eye contact with the interviewer. Some interviewers offer a handshake. Others don't.‎ Try to be as natural as possible. But pay attention to your body language. The way you sit, walk, gesture,use your voice and show feelings on your face is all part of your body language. It makes the interviewer know how you feel about yourself and the situation you are in. Are you feeling positively about yourself？Your abilities? Your interest in the job？‎ Speak clearly and loudly enough. Show interest and enthusiasm in your voice. When you speak, look at the interviewer. Also, don't say negative things about yourself, or former employer.‎ Listen to questions carefully. If you don't understand a question, ask the interviewer to repeat or explain:‎ ‎"I'm sorry, but I didn't catch that."‎ ‎"I'm not sure exactly what you mean."‎ Almost everyone is nervous in a job interview. Interviewers know that. They don't expect you to be totally calm and relaxed. But they expect you to try to control your nervousness. They expect you to show confidence in your ability to do the job.‎ At the end of the interview, thank the interviewer for her or his time. It's a good idea to send a short thank-you letter right after the interview, or deliver it by hand.‎ Phone the company if you have not heard anything after one week. Ask if they have made a decision about the job.‎ Good luck!‎ ‎32.It can be inferred from the passage that _____.‎ A. you should always put on a smile when meeting the employer B. you should stand still with respect before the employer C. the first impression is very important in an interview D. employers understand and like employees' nervousness ‎33.Why should we pay attention to our body language？‎ A. Because it can help us win the employer's positive impression B. Because it can help us feel about the employer C. Because it is needed by our employer.‎ D. Because we need it to improve our feelings ‎34.The main purpose of the passage is _____.‎ A. to give you some advice on the art of finding a job B. to tell right from wrong about job interviews C. to explain why we should do something about an interview D. to suggest not being shy in an interview ‎35.Which of the following can be the best title for the passage？‎ A. A Friendly Smile B. Making a Good Expression C. Don't Be Nervous D. Sending a Thank-You Letter ‎ 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。‎ ‎ Movies have documented America for more than one hundred years. Since Thomas Edison introduced the movie camera in 1893, amateur and professional movie-makers have used moving pictures to tell stories and explain the work of business and government. 36. By preserving these movies, we will save a century of history.‎ Unfortunately, movies are not made to last. 37. Already the losses are high. Only 20% of US feature films from the 1910s to 1920s survive. Of the American features produced before 1950, about half exist. For independently produced works, we have no way of knowing how much has been lost.‎ For many libraries and museums, the hardest step in preserving movie collections is getting started. The Movie Preservation Guide is designed for these organizations. 38. These institutions have collections of moving pictures but lack information about how to take care of them. The Guide contains basic facts for “beginners”—professionals trained in history but unschooled in this technical area.‎ The Guide grew from user workshops at Duke University. At the sessions, beginners talked with technical experts about what they needed to know to preserve and make available their movie collections. 39.‎ Following the advice, the Guide describes methods for handling and storing moving pictures that are practical for research institutions with limited resources. 40. The Guide has been translated into Chinese, Japanese and Korean.‎ A. “Keep it simple!” was the advice of the discussions.‎ B. They’ll be damaged within years if not properly stored.‎ C. These organizations are the first to save American movies.‎ D. It is organized in chapters and includes case studies and charts.‎ E. It introduces movie preservation to nonprofit and public institutions.‎ F. They show how generations of Americans have lived, worked and dreamed.‎ G. They store the original movies and new ones under cool-and-dry conditions.‎ 第三部分 语言知识运用（共两节，满分45分）‎ 第一节 （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A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。‎ ‎ I was sitting in the surgical waiting area(手术等候区) at the hospital waiting for word of my wife's operation.
