            • 1. I drove to a local supermarket the other day.My shopping list was (41)     and my wallet was light.Still,I needed to get a week’s worth of groceries for my family.I parked my car,looked down at my list,and hoped I could (42)     it all.
              As I (43)     the door,I saw a man with kind eyes and a gentle (44)    .He said he was collecting for a local food bank that helped to (45)     the hungry in my area.He handed me a second shopping list of things they could use and asked me to(46)     if I could I smiled back,took the (47)     and walked into the store.I really wanted to help,but wasn’t sure if I could this time.
              I walked through the store,picking up vegetables,soup,spaghetti,bread,milk,cereal,macaroni,bananas,and a dozen other things.I slowly (48)     each item off my list until I was done.When I looked down at my full cart I (49)     again if I even had enough to pay for it all.Then,as I put my own list back into my pocket,I saw the food (50)     list under it.I smiled and decided to trust my heart.
              With the food bank in mind,I went over and (51)     two of the biggest boxes of rice the store had and put them in my cart.It took(52)     six dollars out of my wallet to pay for them,(53)    my heart felt six times larger when I did.And when everything was (54)    ,I had just enough to pay for it all.
              It (55)     so little to make our world a better place.A few dollars can help to fill a child’s (56)     belly(肚子).A smile and hug can help to (57)     a hurting heart.An encouraging word can inspire someone else to live and to love.A random (58)     of kindness can change another’s day and life.It is up to us,    (59)    .If we can (60)     a few dollars on rice,then we can share a love that will last forever.

            • 2. Umbrella is what we easily forget and leave behind in our daily life.When the weather is fine,we certainly don’t think of it; only when it's raining,we’ll carry it purposefully.But as soon as the rain stops,most likely we’ll forget(16)    we’ve put it.It has to wait patiently and pitifully for(17)    owner to claim it,otherwise it’ll remain alone as a deserted umbrella.
              Once I suddenly found my longtime(18)    (use) umbrella“disappeared”.I really got lost and regretted quite some time(19)    my own carelessness.
              Several days later,out of my(20)    (expect),I saw it quietly stand in a corner of the house where I worked.I was extremely glad to regain it.Looking carefully at it,though it was so familiar(21)    me,I found for the first time its wooden handle(22)    (wear)out as a result of repeated rain-wash for years.I sought for it only when I needed it.It occurred to me that I should have paid(23)    (much) attention to it.
              It sets me thinking.Around us there are always people giving us support in silence
              just like(24)    umbrella that protects us from the rain or any wretched weather.Will gou think of those individuals(25)    have helped you get through difficlty
              when you are leading a comfortable life?
            • 3. Like many new graduates,I left university full of hope for the future but with no real idea of what I wanted to do.My degree,with honors,in English literature had not really prepared me for anything practical.I knew I wanted to make a difference in the world somehow,but I had no idea how to do that.That’s when I learned about the  Lighthouse Project.
              I started my journey as a Lighthouse Project volunteer by reading as much as I could about the experiences of previous volunteers.I knew it would be a lot of hard work,and that I would be away from my family and friends for a very long time.In short,I did not take my decision to apply for the Lighthouse Project lightly.Neither did my family.
              Eventually,however,I won the support of my family,and I sent in all the paperwork needed for the application.After countless interviews and presentations,I managed to stand out among the candidates and survive the test alone.Several months later,I finally received a call asking me to report for the duty.I would be going to a small village near Abuja,Nigeria.Where?What?Nigeria?I had no idea.But I was about to find out.
              After completing my training,I was sent to the village that was small and desperately in need of proper accommodation.Though the local villagers were poor,they offered their homes,hearts,and food as if I were their own family.I was asked to lead a small team of local people in building a new schoolhouse.For the next year or so,I taught in that same schoolhouse.But I sometimes think I learned more from my students than they did from me.
              Sometime during that period,I realized that all those things that had seemed so strange or unusual to me no longer did,though I did not get anywhere with the local language,and returned to the United States a different man.The Lighthouse Project had changed my life forever.

              36.What do we know about the author    
              A.His university education focused on the theoretical knowledge.

              37.According to the Project Lighthouse,it is likely that the author

              C.Wrote quite a few paper on voluntary work
              D.Faced strong competition from other candidates

              A.Asked to lead a farming team
              B.Sent to teach in schoolhouse
              C.Received warmly by local villagers
              D.Arranged to live in a separate house.
              40.What can we infer from the author’s experiences in Nigeria    
              A.He found some difficulty adapting to the local culture
              B.He had learned to communicate in the local language.
              C.He had overcome all his weakness before he left for home.
              D.He was chosen as the most respectable teacher by his students.
            • 4. Honesty,my mum always used to tell me,is the best policy.Of course,this didin’t include her when she told me that if I didn’t eat all my vegetables Father Christmas would find out and wouldn’t give me any presents.
              But when it comes to medicine,I had assumed it was important to always be honest with my patients.After all,the doctor patient relationship is based on trust,and therefore honesty is essential,Or so I thought.
              I had just started working in geriatrics(老年病科).Mr.McMahon was brought in when his baby was faound very swollen.I took a medical history from his daughter would accompanied him in the ambulance.She’d been his main carer for years.I stood looking at him as she gave a detailed history.“Has he lost any weight recently?”I asked,“Well,it’s funny you should mention that,but yes.”She said slowly.There was silence for a few moments.“Why?What are you worried about?”she asked,I hesitated.She was obviously very involved in his care and it was only fair that I told her the truth.“Well,we need to prove it’s not cancer.”I said and talked briefly about some of the tests I was going to order.
              Half an hour later,a nurse called me:“Mr.McMahon’s daughter broke down-she said you told her he had cancer.”My heart sank.By the time I arrived at the ward,my consultant was already there,explaining that we still had to run lots of tests and that it was by no means confirmed that he had cancer.I stood silently at the end of the bed.My consultant was obviously angry with me and as we left Mr.McMahon,she turned to me.“Why on carch did you do that?”she asked to disbelief.I looked at her andbit my hp.“She asked me what I was worried about and I told her.”I said,hanging my head.“And give her more to worry about?”replied my consultant.“You don’t say the word‘cancer’until it’s confirmed.Even if you suspect it,think very carefully before you tell people.”
              As it turned out,it wasn’t cancer.But I did learn that when somecone is stressed and worried about their loved one they’re sometimes selective in what they hear-and as a doctor it’s important to be mindful of this.In being truthful,I’d made the situation worse.

              51.The purpose of the first two paragraphs is to show that the author    
              A.misunderstood the doctor-patient relationship
              B.was anxious to receive Christmas gifts
              C.regarded honesty as the best policyD.had an unhealthy eating habit
              52.The author’s consultant was angry with him because    
              A.he told the daughter what he suspected.
              B.he delayed running the necessary tests.
              C.he failed to confirm the parent’s disease.
              D.he forgot what the consultant had advised.
              53.The author hung his head (the underlined part in Para.4)because he was feeling.    
              A.guilty    B.hurt    C.disappointed    D.helpless
              54.What lesson has the author learnt from his experience?

              B.Jumping to a conclusion is dangerous.
              C.Telling the truth may not always be the best solution.
              D.Selecting pleasant words may not be the perfect policy.
            • 5. It’s 5:00 in the morning when the alarm (闹钟) rings in my ears.I roll out of bed and walk blindly through the dark into the bathroom.I turn on the light and put on my glasses.The house is still as I walk downstairs while my husband and three kids sleep peacefully.Usually I go for a long run,but today I choose my favorite exercise DVD insanity.Sweat pours down my face and into my eyes.My heart races as I face my body to finish each movement.As I near the end of the exercise,I feel extremely tired,but a smile is of my face.It’s a smile because the DVD is over,but a smile of success from pushing my body to its extreme limit.
              Some people enjoy shopping,smoking,food,work,or even chocolate.But I need exercise to get through each day.42Some shake heads when they see me run through the town.Others get hurt when I refuse to try just one bite of their grandmother’s chocolate cake.They raise their eyebrows,surprised by my“no thank you,”or by my choice to have a salad.Over the years,I have learned it’s okay to just say“no.”I shouldn’t feel sorry for refusing food that I don’t want to eat.
              So what drives me to roll out of bed at 5:00a.m.?What gives me the reason to just say to ice cream?Commitment.A commitment to change my life with a way that reduces daily anxiety,increases self-confidence and energy,extends life and above all improves my body shape.This is the point where a smile appears on my face as I look at myself in the mirror or try on my favorite pair of jeans that now fit just right.It’s through commitment and sweat that I can make a difference within myself inside and out.

              41.Why is there a smile on the author’s face in the morning?    
              A.Because she sees her family sleeping peacefully.
              B.Because she finishes her favorite exercise
              C.Because she enjoys the interesting DVD

              C.Others don’t understand what she does.
              D.Others try to help her by offering her food
              43.What does the underlined word“commitment”in the last paragraph mean?

              C.A strong power
              D.A regular half
              44.What can we learn about the author from the text?    
              A.She acts in a strange way
              B.She wants to look different from others
              C.She aims to develop a good body shape
              D.She has difficult getting along with others.
            • 6. When something goes wrong,it can be very satisfying to say,“Well,it’s so-and-so’s fault.“or“I know I’m late,but it’s not my fault; the car broke down.“It is probably not your fault,but once you form the habit of blaming somebody or something else for a bad situation,you are a loser.You have no power and could do nothing that helps change the situation.However,you can have great power over what happens to you if you stop focusing on whom to blame and start focusing on how to remedy the situation.This is the winner’s key to success.
              Winners are great at overcoming problems.For example,if you were late because your car broke down,maybe you need to have your car examined more regularly.Or,you might start to carry along with you the useful phone numbers,so you could call for help when in need.For another example,if your colleague causes you problems on the job for l ack of responsibility or ability,find ways of dealing with his irresponsibility or inability rather than simply blame the person.Ask to work with a different person,or don’t rely on this person.You should accept that the person is not reliable and find creative ways to work successfully regardless of how your colleague fails to do his job well.
                   This is what being a winner is all ab out-creatively using your skills and talents so that you are successful no matter what happens.Winners don’t have fewer problems in their lives; they have just as many difficult situation to face as anybody else.They are just better at seeing those problems as challenges and opportunities to develop their own talents.So,stop focusing on“whose fault it is.“Once you are confident about your power over bad situations,problems are just stepping stones for success.
              46.According to the passage,winners    
              A.deal with problems rather than blame others
              B.meet with fewer difficulties in their byes
              C.have responsible and able colleagues
              D.blame themselves rather than others
              47.The underlined word remedy in Paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to    
              A.avoid   B.accept   C.improve   D.Consider
              48.When your colleague brings about a problem,you should    
              A.find a better way to handle the problem
              B.blame him for his lack of responsibility
              C.tell him to find the cause of the problem
              D.ask a more able colleague for help
              49.When problems occur,winners take them as    
              A.excuses for their failures
              B.barriers to greater power
              C.challenges to their colleagues
              D.chances for self-development
              50.Which of the following is the best title for the passage?    
              A.A Winner’s Secret.
              B.A Winner’s Problem.
              C.A Winner’s Opportunity.
              D.A Winner’s Achievement.
            • 7. Goldie's Secret
                  She turned up at the doorstep of my house in Cornwall.No way could I have sent her away.No way,not me anyway.Maybe someone had kicked her out of their car the night before.“We're moving house.';“No space for her any more with the baby coming.““We never really wanted her,but what could we have done?She was a present.“People find all sorts of excuses for abandoning an animal.And she was one of the most beautiful dogs I had ever seen.
                  I called her Goldie.If I had known what was going to happen I would have given
              her a more creative name.She was so unsettled during those first few days.She hardly ate anything and had such an air of sadness about her.There was nothing I could do to make her happy,it seemed.Heaven knows what had happened to her at her previous owner's.But eventually at the end of the first week she calmed down.Always by my side,whether we were out on one of our long walks or sitting by the fire.
                 That's why it was such a shock when she pulled away from me one day when we were out for a walk.We were a long way from home,when she started barking and getting very restless.Eventually I couldn't hold her any longer and she raced off down the road towards a farmhouse in the distance as fast as she could.
                By the time I reached the farm I was very tired and upset with Goldie.But when I saw her licking (舔) the four puppies (幼犬) I started to feel sympathy towards them.“We didn't know what had happened to her,“said the woman at the door.“I took her for a walk one day,soon after the puppies were born,and she just disappeared.““She must have tried to come back to them and got lost,“added a boy from behind her.'
                 I must admit I do miss Goldie,but I've got Nugget now,and she looks just like her mother.And I've learnt a good lesson:not to judge people.

            • 8. When I was growing up in America,I was ashamed of my mother’s Chinese English.Because of her English,she was often treated unfairly.People in department stores,at banks,and at restaurants did not take her seriously,did not give her good service,pretended not to understand her,or even acted as if they did not hear her.
                   My mother has long realized the limitations of her English as well.When I was fifteen,she used to have me call people on the phone to pretend I was she.I was foxed to ask for information or even to yell at people who had been rode to her.One time I had to call her stockbroker (股票经纪人).I said in an adolescent voice that was not very convincing,“This is Mrs.Tan.“
                   And my mother was standing beside me,whispering loudly,“Why he don’t send me cheek,already two week late.“
                   And then,in perfect English I said,“I’m getting rather concerned.You agreed to send the check two weeks ago,but it hasn’t arrived.“
                   Then she talked more loudly.“What he want?I come to New York tell him front of his boss.“And so I turned to the stockbroker again,“I can’t tolerate any more excuse.If I don’t receive the cheek immediately,I am going to have to speak to your manager when I am in New York next week.”
                   The next week we ended up in New York.While I was sitting there red-faced,my mother,the real Mrs.Tan,was shouting to his boss in her broken English.
                   When I was a teenager,my mother’s broken English embarrassed me.But now,I see it differently.To me,my mother’s English is perfectly clear,perfectly natural.It is my mother tongue.Her language,as I hear it,is vivid,direct,and full of observation and wisdom.It was the language that helped shape the way I saw things,expressed ideas,and made sense of the world.
              41.Why was the author’s mother poorly served?    
              A.She was unable to speak good English.
              B.She was often misunderstood.
              C.She was not clearly heard.

              A.good at pretending
              B.rode to the stockbroker
              C.ready to help her mother
              D.unwilling to phone for her mother
              43.After the author made the phone call,    
              A.they forgave the stockbroker
              B.they failed to get the check
              C.they went to New York immediately
              D.they spoke to their boss at once
              44.What does the author think of her mother’s English now?    
              A.It confuses her.
              B.It e mbarrasses her.
              C.It helps her understand the world.
              D.It helps her tolerate rude people.
              45.We can infer from the passage that Chinese English.    
              A.is clear and natural to non-native speakers
              B.is vivid and direct to non-native speakers
              C.has a very bad reputation in America
              D.may bring inconvenience in America.
            • 9. The freezing Northeast hasn’t been a terribly fun place to spend time this winter,so when the chance came for a weekend to Sarasota,Florida,my bags were packed before you could say“sunshine”.I left for the land of warmth and vitamin C(维生素C),thinking of beaches and orange trees.When we touched down to blue skies and warm air,I sent up a small prayer of gratefulness.Swimming pools,wine tasting,and pink sunsets(at normal evening hours,not 4in the afternoon) filled the weekend,but the best part-particularly to my taste,dulled by months of cold-weather root vegetables-was a 7a.m.adventure to the Sarasota farmers’market that proved to be more than worth the early wake-up call.
              The market,which was founded in 1979,sets up its tents every Saturday from 7:00am to 1p.m,rain or shine,along North Lemon and State streets.Baskets of perfect red strawberries,the red-painted sides of the Java Dawg coffee truck; and most of all,the tomatoes:amazing,large,soft and round red tomatoes.
              Disappointed by many a broken,vine-ripened(蔓上成熟的) promise,I’ve refused to buy winter tomatoes for years.No matter how attractive they look in the store,once I get them home they’re unfailingly dry,hard,and tasteless.But I homed in,with uncertainty,on one particular table at the Brown’s Grove Farm’s stand,full of fresh and soft tomatoes the size of my fist.These were the real deal-and at that moment,I realized that the best part of Sarasota in winter was going to be eating things that back home in New York I wouldn’t be experiencing again for months.
              Delighted as I was by the tomatoes in sight,my happiness deepened when I learned that Brown’s Grove Farm is one of the suppliers for Jack Dusty,a newly opened restaurant at the Sarasota Ritz Carlton,where-luckily for me-I was planning to have dinner that very night.Without even seeing the menu,I knew I’d be ordering every tomato on it.

              24.What did the author think of her winter life in New York?    
              A.Exciting.B.Boring.C.Relaxing.D.Annoying.
              25.What made the author’s getting up late early worthwhile?    
              A.Having a swim.
              B.Breathing in fresh air.
              C.Walking in the morning sun.
              D.Visiting a local farmer’s market.
              26.What can we learn about tomatoes sold in New York in winter?    
              A.They are soft.
              B.They look nice.
              C.They taste great.
              D.They are juicy.
              27.What was the author going to that evening?

            • 10. Doctor are known to be terrible pilots.They don't listen because they already know it all.I was lucky:became a pilot in 1970,almost ten years before I graduated from medical school.I didn't realize then,but becoming a pilot makes me a better surgeon.I loved flying.As I flew bigger,faster planes,and in worse weather.I learned about crew resource management (机组资源管理),or CRM,a new idea to make flying safer.It means that crew members should listen and speak up for a good result,regardless of positions.
                I first read about CRM in 1980.Not long after that,an attending doctor and I were flying in bad weather.The controller had us turn too late to get our landing ready.The attending doctor was flying; I was safety pilot He was so busy because of the bad turn,he had forgotten to put the landing gear (起落架) down.He was a better pilot-and my boss-so it felt unusual to speak up.But I had to:Our lives were in danger.I put aside my uneasiness and said,“We need to put the landing gear down now!“That was my first real lesson in the power of CRM,and I've used it in the operating room ever since.
                CRM requires that the pilot/surgeon encourage others to speak up.It further requires that when opinions are from the opposite,the doctor doesn't overreact,which might prevent fellow doctors from voicing opinions again.So when I'm in the operating room,I ask for ideas and help from others.Sometimes they're not willing to speak up.But I hope that if I continue to encourage them,someday someone will keep me from”landing gear up”.

              56.What does the author say about doctors in general?    
              A.They like flying by themselves.B.They are unwilling to take advice.
              C.They pretend to be good pilots.D.They are quick learners of CRM.
              57.The author deepened his understanding of the power of CRM when    
              A.he saved the plane by speaking upB.he was in charge of a flying task
              C.his boss landed the plane too lateD.his boss operated on a patient
              58.In the last paragraph”landing gear up”probably means    
              A.following flying requirements.B.overreacting to different opinions.
              C.listening to what fellow doctors sayD.making a mistake that may cost lives
              59.Which of the following can be the best title for the text?    
              A.CRM:A New Way to Make Flying SafeB.Flying Makes Me a Better Doctor
              C.The Making of a Good PilotD.A Pilot-Turned Doctor.
