【题目】Many people think when they become rich and successful, happiness will1(nature) follow. However, the world is full of rich people who are miserable as if they2(live) in Hell. We have read some stories about movie stars who committed suicide3died from drugs. Quite clearly, money is not the only answer4all problems. Wealth5(acquire) through dishonest means does not bring happiness. In my view, the secret to happiness lies in your hard work, your6(contribute) towards others’ happiness and your wealth you earn through your own effort. If you get your money by taking advantage of others, you will not be happy with it. Long-term happiness7(base) on honesty, hard work and self-esteem. Happiness is not8end; it is a process. It is no use saying that some day when I get a car, build a house or own my own business, then I will be really happy. Life just does not work that way. If you wait for certain things9(happen) to make you happy, you will always feel unfulfilled. There will always be something10(miss).

1naturally

本题考查考生根据语篇的意义把形容词正确转化为副词的能力。句意很多人认为当他们 富裕了、成功了的时候幸福就会随之而来。本空用来修饰动词follow用副词,故填naturally.

2lived

本题考查考生根据语篇的意义正确使用虚拟语气的能力。句意然而世界上有很多富人过得很悲惨好像他们生活在地狱一般。根据句意可知这是虚拟语气,as if 后的从句表示与现在事实相反的假设因此应该用一般过去时。故填lived.

3or

本题考查考生根据上下文逻辑关系正确使用连词的能力。句意我们读过很多关于电影明星自杀或吸毒致死的故事。此处举了两个例子自杀和吸毒致死为选择关系,故填连词or.

4to

本题考查考生根据固定搭配正确使用介词的能力。句意很明显钱不是解决所有问题的唯一途径。在answer, key, note等名词后常用介词to,分别表示"问题的答案或解决方案,做某事的关键或门上的钥匙,对某事的注释"。故填to.

5acquired

本题考查考生根据语篇的意义以及句子结构正确使用过去分词的能力。句意通过不正当 手段获得的财富并不会带来幸福。分析句子结构可知,名词Wealth与动词acquire构成逻辑上的动宾关系因此应该用过去分词作后置定语。故填acquired.

6contribution

本题考查考生根据语篇的意义将动词转化为名词的能力。此处表示在我看来,幸福的秘诀在于努力工作努力让别人幸福,以及通过自己的努力获得财富。根据形容词性物主代词your 可推知本空应该填名词。动词contribute的名词形式为contribution。故填contribution.

7is based

本题考查考生根据语篇的意义正确使用动词的时态和语态的能力。句意长期的幸福是建 立在诚实、努力工作和自尊的基础上的。本句话陈述的是客观事实应用一般现在时又因为句子的主语Long-term happiness和动词base之间构成动宾关系,故用被动语态。注意be based on意为"……为根据"。故填is based.

8an

本题考查考生根据语篇的意义正确使用冠词的能力。句意幸福不是终点它是一个过程。名词end在句中表示泛指,end的发音是以元音音素开头的故填不定冠词an。

9to happen

本题考查考生牢固掌握动词词组中非谓语动词的准确形式的能力。句意如果你等着某 些事情发生而使你开心那么你永远不会得到满足。注意动词词组wait for sth. to do 表示"等待某事……",故填to happen.

10missing

本题考查考生根据语篇的意义将动词转化为形容词的能力。句意总有一些东西会缺失。形容词missing表示状态意为"不见的,找不到的",符合题意。故填missing.

【题目】Today Dante had a small skating competition in his class. Before we went to the competition, I asked him if he wanted to wear something nice for the competition and he said, “Who cares? it’s not important.” When we showed up at the rink(溜冰场), we found that most of the kids were dressed up. One boy who was around nine years old was my son’s friend, wearing a dress shirt and a pink vest. I walked over to his mother saying how beautifully dressed he was. But his mother said, “He didn’t want to dress up. He said that this competition was not important for him to dress up.”

I thought it was interesting that neither Dante nor his friend viewed the competition as important and neither wanted to dress up. I started to wonder if this was how a child learned what was “important” and what wasn’t.

Interestingly, this boy won two medals and Dante won none.

Parents and teachers often instill (灌输) what they think is important: then children will accept the opinions of the adults. Gradually, they grow up stressing about how they look, how many medals they get, what color the medals are, how good their grades are, what a great “job” they can get in life, what a big house they can live in... etc.

Dante taught me an important lesson today. He taught me what was unimportant. Life goes on long after the medal ceremony whether you win a medal or not.

1Why didn’t Dante want to dress up for the competition?

A. He had no proper clothes.

B. He had no time to dress up.

C. His mother didn’t prepare clothes for him.

D. He thought he didn’t need to dress up.

2What does Paragraph 5 want to tell us?

A. Children stress about many things in life.

B. Adults may instill wrong ideas into children.

C. Children are always influenced by adults.

D. Adults should set good examples to children.

3What lesson did the author learn from her son?

A. Winning medals makes people proud.

B. Not all things are that important in life.

C. Fairness is more important in competitions.

D. Kids have a better understanding of life than adults.

【题目】根据短文内容,从下框的A~F选项中选出能概括每一段主题的最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该选项涂黑。选项中有一项为多余项。
A. The mistaken belief
B. The need for tolerance
C. Unpunctuality at dinners
D. Punctuality and confidence
E. Self-discipline and punctuality
F. Avoid anxiety by being punctual
1

There is the belief that, if you arrive at an appointment late, you will be considered important. This is a mistaken view. Being unpunctua

l, we are not respectful of others ; we are interfering (扰乱)with another man's time. We must realise that keeping appointments or being punctual is a contract that is silently agreed and we are expected to respect this contract. It is only natural that we lose faith, trust and confidence in a person who is tardy(延迟的).


2.
To be punctual one has to have self-discipline(自律), and the lack of it affects others. A school boy or girl is unpunctual because he or she does not have the necessary human virtue of self-discipline. It is also a mark of disrespect for a system or an institution. Unpunctual people seldom realise that their habit cause problems to others. A salesman who is not punctual may not make a sale if he arrives late for an appointment. If one is late for a job interview, it is not likely that he will get the job.
3.
Being punctual, we can avoid anxiety. Imagine the anxiety if you do not want to be considered unpunctual. You will be anxious if you
set out for a dinner late. The person who sets out late might be careless in driving. He will ignore traffic rules. A traffic jam, flat tyres, etc.
can delay him further. Happy and calm is the man who takes all these possibilities into consideration and arrives at the appointment either
early or on time.
4.
Many of those who attend dinners are notorious (声名狼藉的)for unpunctuality. They ignore the appointed time and leave their homes only after the fixed time. They are indifferent to the inconvenience caused to others. If the self-centred guest arrives late, the nine others at the table set for ten will have to wait. The host is put in an unpleasant situation and this man seldom thinks of the inconvenience caused to all -the waiters, the management staff, etc. It is necessary for us to think of others and be considerate to them.
5.

However, we cannot always be intolerant (无法容忍的) of tardiness, for ordinary living requires some tolerance. There can be a busy executive who fights to keep to his schedule. Such a person may be forgiven if he is late, but not those who are deliberately late to create impression.


In modern society, punctuality is a necessary virtue. It is a recognition of the importance of other people.

【题目】I am sorry that I haven’t written this letter before now. It has taken me three years to gather the courage. I have started it so many times in my head, but was afraid that you would think it disrespectful of me to write to you. It does seem strange writing to someone I have never met, but part of me feels that I know you very, very well.

We read your file one morning in September. We knew the contents would be difficult. Later that afternoon, we received the call from our social worker to tell us that you had passed away. Suddenly, we knew what we had to do.

There was never any doubt. All I remember was an a desire to protect this little boy, to give him the love and care he deserved. And really that was that; as far as we were concerned, David was now our son. There were further meetings, questions, paperwork, decisions, arrangements and preparations. Then, two months later, we met him for the first time. I hope the fact that I call him “our son” does not offend you. Sarah, you will always be his birth mother. But I make no apology in referring to him as our son.

For the past three years, we have loved and cared for David. We have dealt with his anger, his confusion and his anxieties. David was taken away from you soon after his second birthday. I cannot imagine the pain that must have caused you. We know that you really wanted to be a good mother to David, but you could not cope when his father left.

It is tragic that your life ended so early. I don’t know how I will explain all these things to David as he grows up, or how he will explain his story and what happened to him during his early years. I hope that it does not cast a shadow over his life as his understanding deepens. I hope you can find comfort in the fact that, from all this pain, Sarah, you have given us the most wonderful gift – an amazing little boy who is completely fearless.

It is so unfair that you did not receive the love and the warmth in your childhood that David now takes for granted. And although you never chose to hand your beautiful baby over, I can only feel gratitude towards you for this wonderful little boy who has made our lives complete.
