13.In our home it was natural to fear our father.Even our mother was afraid of him.As children,my sister and I thought every family was like that---that every family had an unpredictable dad who was impossible to please and a praying mom who was there to protect the children.We were good children.Mom was always telling us we were,even if daddy couldn't see it.
Then came the day we found something new and fun to do.We discovered we could draw pictures with chalk on our wooden front door.We could have lots of fun,so we set to work drawing and making lots of pretty pictures all over it.We had a great time.We decided to finish our pictures,knowing mom would just love them.
The praise we expected did not come.We did not understand why,but we knew all about anger,and that we were in big trouble!Off we ran to find a place to hide.In our wooded yard it was not hard for two small children to find safety.Together,we hid behind a tree and did not move.Soon we heard the frightened voices of mom and our neighbors calling out to us.We were afraid we would be found.The sun set,and it began to get dark.Those around us became more anxious,and we became more frightened.As we stayed together in the dark,we heard another voice,one we recognized with great fear:our daddy.But there was something strangely different about it.In it we heard something we had never heard before:fear and despair.Our daddy with tears running down his face,promising God his life for the safe return of his girls.
Things were different after that.We had a new daddy; it was as if the old one had been buried that day in the yard.Our whole family had been changed by one piece of chalk.

A.improve their drawing skills

D.have fun

B.They wanted to make their father worry.
C.They wanted to tell their parents that they were wrong.
D.They wanted to stay there for the night.
34.What happened while the children were hiding?A
A.The mother told the neighbors about it.
B.The father came home early.
C.The father became very angry.
D.The children found it was interesting to do so.
35.What can we infer from the story?C

3.SINCE it's home to a famous university,a lot of people think Oxford,an English city west of London,is very wealthy.In fact,that's not quite the case.Many neighborhoods in and around Oxford are quite poor Children in these areas often don't have the best opportunities  in life.Some of them never even get to go 0n holiday.
    While a student at university,I ran a charity called Vacproj   (short for"Vacation Project")that helped such children go on holiday.Over a year,we raised money  by writing letters to businesses and standing in the street with buckets(桶),We managed to pay for 36 children to go on a holiday.They were aged from about 6 to 11 years old.Altogether,this cost more than 25,000 pounds  (232,100yuan).
These holidays took place every summer a part of England called Sussex.Around 20 students from my university volunteered to help.Every day,we went on a different trip:one day it was ice-skating,another time we went to the zoo.One day,went on a trip to a castle.We told them old legends(传说) of the ghosts who lived there and all the kings and queens who had passed through,All these trips required a lot of preparations.For example,on a climbing trip we had to teach the kids about safety and how to use  ropes.
    The holiday was by far the most tiring experience of my life.Every day,I had to wake up at 6 am,and  I didn't get to  bed until l am.The children never,ever ran out  of energy,and we were responsible for all of  them Some of the kids were very naughty; others refused to eat  certain kinds of  food.There were always problems to deal with.We had to be their parents for the week,and care for them as parents would.
Though the trip may have been very tiring,it was also the best I've ever been on.At every new tourist site,the kids eyes lit up with excitement.They were very funny,and weren't afraid of making fun of us. We left the holiday with a new perspectiveon life; children may be the most tiring people in the world,but they're also the most interesting.

4.Dear Daughter,
As we drove off from Columbia,I wanted to write to tell you all that is on my mind.First,I want to tell you how proud we are.Getting into Columbia is a real testament (证明) of what a great well-rounded student you are.You should be as proud of yourself as we are.
Your college years will be the most important of your life.It is in college that you will discover what learning is about.This will be the period when you go from teacher taught to master inspired,after which you must become a self-learner.So do take each subject seriously,and even if what you learn is of no practical use in real life,the learning skills you get will be something you will value forever.
Follow your passion in college.Take courses you think you will enjoy,don't be bothered by what others think or say,but make up your own mind.Most importantly,make true friends and be happy.Don't worry about their hobbies,grades,looks,or even personalities.
Start planning early what you'd like to do.Where would you like to live?What would you like to learn?I think your plan to study fashion is good,and you should decide where you want to be,and get onto the right courses.I will always be there for you,but the time has come for you to be in the driver's seat-this is your life,and you need to be in control.Being in control feels great.Try it,and you'll love it!
So please treasure your college years-make the best use of your free time,become an independent thinker in control of your destiny,and learn through your successes and challenges.
May your years at Columbia be the happiest of your life,and may you grow into just what you dream to be.

1.You wake up in the morning.The day is beautiful and the plans for the day are what you have been looking forward to for a long time.Then the telephone rings,you say hello,and the drama starts.The person on the other end has a depressing tone in his voice as he starts to tell you how terrible his morning is and that there is nothing to look forward to.You are still in a wonderful mood?Impossible!
Communicating with negative people can wash out your happiness.It may not change what you think,but communicating long enough with them will make you feel depressed for a moment or a long time.
Life brings ups and downs,but some people are stuck in the wrong idea that life has no happiness to offer.They only feel glad when they make others feel bad.No wonder they can hardly win others'pity or respect.
When you communicate with positive people,your spirit stays happy and therefore more positive things are attracted.When the dagger(匕首)of a negative person is put in you,you feel the heavy feeling that all in all,brings you down.
Sometimes we have no choice but to communicate with negative people.This could be a co-worker,or a relative.In this case,say what needs to be said as little as possible.Sometimes it feels good to let out your anger back to the negative person,but all this is to lower you to that same negative level and they won't feel ashamed of themselves about that.
Negativity often affects happiness without even being realized.The negative words of another at the start of the day can cling to(附着)you throughout the rest of your day,which makes you feel bad and steals your happiness.Life is too short to feel negative.Stay positive and avoid negativity as much as possible.

18.College isn't high school.In college,when a professor has treated you unfairly,you can't turn to your mother and ask her to call the headmaster to complain.In college,you are either expected to A) take the disrespect,move on with your life and wish that the professor would still give you an A on your next test,or B) go to their office,stand your ground,and tell them exactly how they have wronged you.Both choices have their consequences,but it's up to you to tell the difference between action and inaction.I think students often forget that one of the main purposes of college is to prepare you to be independent in life.In college,you live off-campus,often in a different state or city,far away from your close family and friends.You choose your own schedule.No one forces you to go to class.The way some students deal with that sudden independence and freedom is very telling of how they end up performing in college.
    There is some argument whether academics(学业) are the main focus of college,I think social relationships should come first.I'm not just saying this because I'm lazy and have bad grades.You can get through high school without ever interacting with a single person---but in college,you can't,nor do you want to.Do you really want to enter the job market without a single friend?You don't want to stay alone in your dorm room for entire four years.Make a few friends---aside from your roommates.In my case,when I have had roommate problems,I've needed to turn to a separate group of friends that can turn me away from the trouble.Being part of clubs and sports is another great way to do this---not only will you be making friends,you'll also be gaining a new skill.

5.As an English teacher,I've been lucky enough to travel to many countries all over the world.I've seen people celebrate everything from the arrival of new babies to the delivery of new cars.I've attended weddings,parties and religious celebrations in countries such as Argentina and Japan,and I've noticed that gold---the metal or the colour of it---is always part of cultural events,traditions and celebrations.
It makes me wonder:Why do people love gold?
For some people,gold seems to be a status(地位)symbol.Indian businessman Datta Phuge loves gold so much that he even bought a shirt made of gold at a cost of 250,000.I'mnotsureI'dspendsomuchmoneyonashirt,wouldyou?ButDattaPhugehashisreason.Heexplains,"SomepeoplewanttoownanAudioraMercedes.Ichoosegold."<br/>Forotherpeople,goldisaninvestment(投资).ThepriceofgoldgenerallyincreasesovertimeandinEuropeanmarkets,itreachedeven1,500 per ounce in 2011.
And for many people,a family heirloom(传家宝)brings together status and investment.My mother has a gold bracelet(手镯)that was given to her by her grandmother who,in turn,inherited it from her own grandmother.It's quite a heavy piece and probably worth quite a lot of money.But its mental value is greater than its value in dollars.It's a beautiful object that holds many family memories.When the time comes,my mum will give the bracelet to me,and one day,I'll pass it on to the younger generation.
Therefore,status and investment are good reasons to value gold.However,I think that the real reason why people love gold is that it can be made into beautiful objects.Think about Tutankhamen's death mask.Have you ever seen anything so beautiful?
People love gold because it holds their minds,their imaginations and,above all,their hearts.
56.The main idea of the first paragraph is thatD.
A.the author has traveled to many countries  
B.people celebrate almost everything
C.there are many ways to use gold         
D.people all over the world love gold
57.Datta Phuge bought a shirt made of gold becauseA.
A.gold is a status symbol to him          
B.he loves this kind of shirt
C.people there love gold so much     
D.he is a successful businessman
58.According to the passage,in Europe,gold could beCper ounce in 2010.
A.1,550           B.1,500          C.1,450           D.1,600
59.The gold bracelet is the heirloom for the author's family mainly becauseD.
A.it's worth a lot of money              
B.it brings status and investment
C.it's a beautiful object                
D.it holds family memories
60.In the author's opinion,the real reason why people love gold is thatB.
A.it is a status symbol to some people         
B.it can be made into beautiful objects
C.it can be passed on to the younger generation
