This year the marathon in my hometown took place in the hottest month. My job was to follow behind the runners to see if any of them needed medical care.

“We should stay behind the last runner, so take it slowly,”I said to the driver, Bob.

“Let’s hope that the last runner is fast!”He laughed.

Soon the front runners started to disappear, and I saw a woman in a white T-shirt.

“Bob, look!”

We knew we were already watching our“last runner”. She was different from the others because of her age.

“I think she is over 60, too old for any sports match. How can she finish a marathon?”Bob said. We watched quietly as she slowly moved forward. We would move forward a little, then stop and wait for her. Then we would move a little bit more.

As I watched her try to put one foot in front of the other, I found my heart beating for her. I wanted her to stop, but at the same time, I hoped that she wouldn’t.

Soon she was the only runner that we could see. Tears ran down my face. She was so great! For her, it wasn’t about beating the other runners or winning something；it was about finishing what she had decided to do.

Later in my life, when I think things are too difficult, I will think of the woman—the last runner.

By the way, she did make it to the finishing line that day, when the other runners and the cheering crowds had long gone home.

Winter break! Two whole weeks without homework—two whole weeks of heaven. Two weeks to relax. I imagined myself getting plenty of sleep. I planned on reading “The Giver”, which I hadn’t had time to read.

But soon I noticed something: I couldn’t sleep. It would be 12:30 a.m. and I would be trying to fall asleep. I would begin thinking that I haven’t done anything today! This happened the next night, and the night after. During the day, when I had free time, I would be walking around the room moaning(抱怨) that I had nothing to do! I was eating when I wasn’t hungry. I was playing a computer game even though it was boring. The truth, I found, is that relaxation doesn’t mean doing nothing. Relaxation means doing something enjoyable. I planned to swim at the local high school. I set up a practice schedule（时刻表、计划） of an

hour and a half per day. I decided to read two books that my friend had advised me to. I planned to do a little community service work, volunteering to help at the nearby old people’s home for two hours every day. After doing those things, writing e-mails to my friends, watching DVDs and sleeping 12 hours a day, my days are full. And I’m truly having fun relaxing.

Of course, some of my earlier wishes have come true. Being free from schoolwork has taken a load off my mind, helped me to get perspicacity(洞察力) and brought me back in touch with my family and myself. Getting so much sleep has done wonders for my state of mind.

After each past winter break, I haven’t been able to say what I did, how I used my time. This winter break will be different. I am relaxing by working. 53. Which word can best describe the writer’s feeling in the first paragraph?

A. Surprised. B. Excited. C. Worried. D. Hopeless.

54. Why couldn’t the writer fall asleep?

A. Because the writer was ill. B. Because the writer was too tired.

C. Because the writer had too many things to do in the daytime.

D. Because the writer had nothing to do in the daytime. 55. We can infer from the passage that after the writer had done a lot of things, ____.

A. he/she felt tired and bored B. he /she didn’t get a relaxation at all

C. he /she felt full and pleased D. he /she got relaxed

56. By writing this passage, the writer wants to tell us that ______.

A. Relaxation means doing something meaningful B. Relaxation means doing nothing

C. Relaxation means doing something different D. Relaxation is more important than work

D

In life, people come across many experiences, which they remember through their lives. I had a similar experience, too.

I was very excited. It was the day of my last paper of the final exam. My mind was full of thoughts of how I would spend my vacation. I was especially excited of the vacation that my uncle had asked me to stay with him for a few days in Cambridge.

I was prepared for the subject, physics. My friends and I were on the ground doing the last minute revisions and also discussing the questions that were supposed(猜想) to come in the paper. Suddenly the bell rang and we got into our classrooms. The teacher came and quickly handed out the answer paper and the question paper. The paper was of two hours and some of the expected questions came. I finished it almost forty-five minutes earlier. But since it was a rule not to collect the answer paper before the allotted (规定的) time, the teacher was not collecting and I had to sit till the time was over. I checked my paper twice and corrected some of the mistakes in it. I started thinking about the place my friends and I had planned to go after the paper.

Though I was thinking for a long time, the time seemed to be endless. So I thought of drawing something on the question paper and turned it over. I was shocked（使震惊的） to see that the page which had four more questions on it which carried 20 marks and would take at least half an hour to complete. I had a quick look at my watch. There were only 10 minutes left. I was so nervous that I was hardly in a state to write anything. They were the sub-questions（小题）of the last question. Suddenly our physics teacher came in and told us that in the last question, out of 6 sub-questions only 2 had to be answered. I felt very much

So I never made such mistakes again. But I realized that my excitement could have cost me to lose 20

marks and I decided never to make such a mistake again.

57.The underlined word “ means ________.

A. more nervous B. less afraid C. more surprised D. less worried

58.We can infer from the passage that ________.

A. the writer did 2 sub-questions of the last question B. the writer turned it over to do the sub-questions

C. the writer spent 45 minutes finishing the paper D. the writer got full marks in the physics exam

59.We can learn from the passage that we should ______.

A. learn some exam skills B. try our best to do well in the exam

C. pay attention to what we’re doing D. be careful not to make mistakes in the exam

七、阅读短文，根据短文内容，从短文后的五个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有一项为多余选项。（共8分，每小题2分）

Once there was a piano player in a bar. People came just to hear him play. But one night, a lady asked him to sing a song.

“I don’t sing,” said the man.

But the lady told the waiter, “. I want the player to sing!”

The waiter shouted across the room, “Hey, friend! If you want to get paid, sing a song!”

So he did. He had never sung in public before. . Nobody had never heard the song Mona Lisa sung so beautifully!

He had talent (天赋) he was sitting on! He may have lived the rest of his life as a no-name piano player in a no-name bar. But once he found, by accident, that he could sing well, he went on working hard and became one of the best-known singers in the US. You, too, have skills and abilities. You may not feel that your talent is great, but it may be better than you think. . Besides, you may have no success at all if you just sit on your talent.

八、阅读短文，根据短文内容回答下列问题。（共10分，每小题2分）

One of the most important things in the world is friendship. In order to have friends, you have to be a good friend. But how can you be a good friend at school?

Listen—listen when they are talking. Don’t say anything unless(除非) they ask you a question. Sometimes it’s not necessary for you to have anything to say；they just need someone to talk to about their feelings.

Help them—If your friend is ever in need of something, be there to help them. You should try to put them first, but make sure you don’t do everything they want you to do. Try to take an extra pencil or pen with you to class in case they forget one. Have a little extra money in your pocket in case they forget something they need.

Be there for them—Be there for your friends to help make them feel better in hard times. Marilyn

There is currently an all out attack on smoking in our country. This, however, has not been embraced by our youth. The number of adult smokers may be 1 , but smokers between the ages of 13 and 23 have actually increased by ten percent over the last ten years. What is 2 for this trend? Smoking advertisements in public places and on television and radio have been 3 . Where are kids getting their 4 to smoke?

The answer is that while our government has forbidden some types of ads, other kinds are still OK. Cigarette manufacturers spend 5 sums of money to get their message out.

Sometimes the gifts that they give have words printed on them that actually 10 smoking is 'bad for kids'. This isn't the message that the kids take in, though."

You will be surprised how often people simply want to get things off their chests. All you have to do is just listen. Keep on listening. Don't answer back, and in nine cases out of ten, your staff will leave your room perfectly happy and satisfied.

Even ordinary things should be noticed and appreciated. That's what the smart boss does. So you shouldn't just praise once and forget about it. If someone has done a good job, you should mention it again and again and again, because for most of us the desire for appreciation is never satisfied.

Moreover, a good supervisor (监管者) certainly notices the changes in all members of his staff and asks about them. When a staff member is back from leave, the good supervisor asks the staff member how he enjoyed his time off. He welcomes him back with a cheerful smile. It is just these small touches that make all the difference between a pleasant and unpleasant working environment.

It is a fact that anyone loves being given attention, and you have to recognize it if you want good results when dealing with people. People crave (渴求) attention. And they will get it one

way or another. If they can't get it by being constructive (建设性的), they will get it by being destructive (破坏性的). Don't ignore people. Even a few seconds of attention periodically (周期性地) can make all the difference.

As a boss, before you yourself eat or look after your own needs, you must see to the needs of your people. You should also keep yourself in touch with the habits and ways of the people who work for you. Give them plenty of chances to say what they think. Encourage them to do so. This is one of the best ways to keep open the lines of communication. Do this often. Talk to your people. Get to know what's on their minds. Then you will be able to anticipate their needs and even stop trouble well before a matter becomes serious.

If you want to stay young, sit down and have a good think. This is the research finding of a team of Japanese doctors, who say that most of our brains are not getting enough exercise and as a result, we are aging unnecessarily soon.

Professor Taiju Matsuzawa wanted to find out why otherwise healthy farmers in northern

Japan appeared to be losing their ability to think and reason at a relatively early age, and how the process of aging could be slowed down.

With a team of colleagues (同事) at Tokyo National University, he set about measuring brain activity of a thousand people of different ages and varying (不同的) jobs.

Computer technology enabled the researchers to obtain precise measurements of the activity of the front and side sections of the brain, which relate to intelligence and feeling, and

determine the human character. (The rear section of the brain, which controls functions like eating and breathing, does not change with age, and one can continue living without the ability to think and feel.)

Change of front and side parts, as bits die off, was observed in some subjects in their thirties, but it was still not to be seen in some sixty-and-seventy-year-olds.

Matsuzawa discovered from his tests that there is a simple answer to the loss normally associated with age?using the head.

The findings show in general terms that the decrease of the brain's ability to think begins sooner in people in the country than in the towns. Those least at risk, says Matsuzawa, are lawyers, followed by university professors and doctors. White-collar workers doing routine work in government offices are, however, as likely to have shrinking brains as the farm worker, bus driver and shop assistant.

Matsuzawa's findings show that thinking can prevent the brain from shrinking. Blood must move around properly in the head to supply the fresh oxygen the brain needs. "The best way to keep blood moving well is through using the brain." He says, "Think hard and engage in conversation. Don't rely on pocket calculators."

Ours is a big world, and full of many different people. People with many varying (不同的) points of view are often running up against others who have different opinions. Those of us who smoke are just one group of many. Recently, the activism (采取行动) of non-smokers has reminded us of the need to be considerate (体谅的) of others when we smoke in public. But, please! Enough is enough! We should like to remind non-smokers that being polite is a two-way street. If you politely request that someone not smoke you are more likely to receive an agreeable response than if you give an ugly look and say something unkind. If you speak directly to someone, you are more likely to get what you want than if you complain to the management.

Many of us have been smoking for so long that we sometimes forget that others are not used to the smell of burning tobacco. We' re human, and like everyone else, we occasionally offend unknowingly. But most of us are open to friendly suggestions and comments, and quite willing to change our behavior to accommodate others.

Smokers are people, too. We laugh and cry. We have hopes, dreams, and aspirations. We have children, mothers, and pets. We eat our hamburgers (汉堡包) with everything on them and give respect to the flag at Fourth of July picnics. We hope you'll remember that the next time a smoker light up in public.

1. The purpose of the first paragraph is ______.

A. to inform the reader of the bigness of the world

B. to declare that the author belongs to the group of smokers

C. to tell non-smokers that smokers will be considerate

D. to reveal the author's reason for writing this essay

2. What does the second sentence in the second paragraph imply?

A. We should go on two different roads.

B. We have different ways of doing things.

C. Being polite to each other is a mutual thing.

D. We can smoke and sometimes we will not smoke.

3. According to the author, how can you get an agreeable response from smokers if you don't feel like someone smoking beside you?

A. Complain to his boss.

B. Tell him directly that you hate smokers.

C. Keep from complaining but do something to suggest your feelings.

D. Tell him politely that you are not used to smoke.

When we children became__36__that other children got pocket money from their parents, we made a(n)__37__to ask our father for some. Immediately his face turned stone-cold, and he said, “If you're old enough to ask, you're old enough to__38__.” And we had to seek odd jobs about the neighbourhood.

He didn't__39__his attitude as we grew into adulthood. There was a time when__40__of us had a car, so we had to ride a__41__whenever we came home. Though the bus stopped about two miles from home. Dad never met us，__42__ in bad weather. If someone__43__(and my brothers did a lot), he'd say in his__44__father-voice. “That's what your legs are__45__！”

One spring morning I was on the bus home from__46__. Tests and long hours in labs had__47__me exhausted. As other students were__48__at their stops. I looked silently out of the window. Finally, the bus came to a__49__at my destination, and I__50__， carrying my suitcase to begin the long journey home.

The row of privet hedge(树篱) came into__51__， which lined the driveway that climbed the hill to our house. I stopped to put a book in the suitcase. When I stood

up, I saw something gray__52__along the top of the hedge toward the house. It was the top of my father's head. I__53__then, each time I came home, he would stand behind the hedge, watching，__54__he knew I had arrived safely. I held back my tears. He did care，__55__.

Upon reaching home, I found my father innocently in his chair. “So! It's you！” he said, his face lengthening into surprise.

文章大意：父亲一直对我们很严厉。向他要零花钱，他不给，让我们自己挣。长大后，我们回家，他从不出来接我们。有一次，我回家时，不经意地发现了父亲的秘密。这时，我才明白，其实父亲很关心我们，只是他有他自己关心我们的方式。

37．A. attempt

C. trouble B. suggestion D. plan

答案：A make an attempt to do“想做，企图做”。

38．A. spend

C. survive B. earn D. raise

39．A. strengthen

C. take B. soften D. show

答案：B 当我们长大成人后，他的态度也没有“软化”。

40．A. neither

C. all B. each D. none

答案：D 由句意可知，此处是指我们当时“都没”车，所以选A、D项；再由43空后的my brothers可知，我们是三者以上，因此用none，不用neither。

41．A. bicycle

C. train

答案：D 与该空后的bus对应。

42．A. especially

C. even B. only D. once B. car D. bus
