2.While I was in my 4th month of pregnancy (妊娠期) with my second child,we were preparing for a trip to Louisiana,where Marshall's family live,to celebrate Jane's 2nd birthday.Two days before we were to leave,we got the shocking news that I was going to lose the baby.Not knowing when this would happen,we decided to continue with our trip.
Since Marshall's family lives on a 600-acre cattle farm,you often find that you have a lot of time to yourself to think when you are there.That is precisely what I did not want to do at this time.I told Marshall that I needed to get a good book to get lost in while I was there.I told him I heard the Harry Potter books were good,so he went out and got the first one for me.
During that trip,I totally got lost in the book,which was of great help during a time when I needed a distraction to forget about the sadness.In the book,I noticed the name"Seamus".I vaguely remembered it was pronounced"Shamus"and I liked the sound of that.I mentioned it to Marshall and he liked it too.Toward the end of the trip,I had just 5chapters left and I knew I was about to finish the first book,which I was pretty excited about.
Soon after we put Jane down to bed,I had started labor (分娩),so I was unable to read.The labor lasted 5and 1/2hours,but Marshall stayed there with me,sitting beside me and reading aloud the last 5chapters of Harry Potter.I can never fully explain how much that helped me through the experience.And ever since then,Marshall and I both have been fans of the Harry Potter books.We remember how they helped us get through that time of our lives.
We were sad to have lost the baby,but the name Seamus started our journey toward adoption.And we gave this name to our adopted son.Though our Seamus doesn't have a drop of Irish blood in him,the name fits him perfectly.

26.Why did the writer want a good book during the trip?B
A.Because the trip to Louisiana would take a long time.
B.Because she didn't want to think of losing her baby.
C.Because she had nothing else to do except reading.
D.Because a good book could help her enjoy her trip.
27.According to the story,we can know that the Harry Potter booksC.
A.made the family's trip more exciting      B.include five books all together
C.have someone called Seamus in them         D.can help people deal with their problems
28.The writer named her son Seamus becauseB.
A.she wanted to keep her trip in memory            B.she loved this name very much
C.her son doesn't have Irish blood                D.it is a perfect name for a boy
29.Which of the following is TRUE about the couple?D

B.They thought the cattle farm was too large to do anything on.

A.Funny Stories Of My Family            B.Seamus And Harry Potter
C.How We Got To Louisiana               D.How My Son Got His Name.
3.To change your habits successfully,you should think about changing your inner beliefs about your habits.For example,your old belief was:"I love cigarette because it (61)makes(make) me feel good and (62)relaxed(relax).I need cigarette to be happy and eased."If you keep this belief,you won't be able to keep your resolution(63)to stop (stop) smoking for very long.Instead,you should adopt this new belief:"I love yoga because it can make me strong and energetic while cigarette is poisonous (64)and destroys my body."You should analyze your beliefs and make sure they won't stop you from changing your habits.(65)The same is true when you try to form positive habits.If you want to start eating healthy food,here are some positive beliefs you should start thinking about:"Healthy food is very good (66)for my health.It gives me a lot of energy and I feel very good."Everybody can change.All it takes is courage and (67)commitment(commit).Decide right now!To improve (68)your life by changing your habits.Take action right now!Don't be afraid.Yes,you will probably make mistakes along the way.But never forget (69)that success is guaranteed for you if you have positive habits in your life.If you continue success (70)will be(be)yours.
4.Years ago a farmer owned land along the Atlantic seacoast.He advertised for hired hands.Most people were(16)unwilling to work on farms along the Atlantic.They feared the awful(17)storms that spread across the Atlantic,damaging the buildings and crops.(18)As the farmer interviewed applicants for the job,he received many(19)refusals.
Finally,a short,thin man,well past middle age,(20)approached the farmer."Are you a good farmhand?"the farmer asked him.
"Well,I can(21)sleep when the wind blows,"answered the little man.
Although(22)puzzled by this answer,the farmer,(23)desperate for help,hired him.The little man worked well around the(24)farm,busy from dawn to dusk,and the farmer felt(25)satisfiedwith the man's work.then one night the wind howled(怒号)loudly in from offshore.Jumping out of bed,the farmer took a lantern and(26)rushed next door the hired hand's sleeping room.He shook the little man and (27)cried,"Get up!A storm is coming!Tie things down (28)before they are blown away!The little man rolled over in bed and said(29)firmly,"No sir.I told you,I can sleep when the wind blows"(30)angered by the answer,the farmer was tempted to fire him on the spot.(31)instead,he hurried outside to prepared for the storm.To his (32)surprise,he discovered that all of the haystacks(干草堆)had been covered with tarpaulins(帆布).The cows and the chickens were all in the(33)proper places,and the doors were fastened.The windows were tightly(34)secured.Everything was(35)tied down.Nothing could be blown away.The farmer then understood what his hired hand meant,so he returned to his bed to also sleep while the wind blew.

11.Teenage years can be confusing for both teenagers and parents.At about 15,many teens start thinking about how they feel about themselves and(1)B  out how this matches or mismatches what others think of them.Most teens work through this(2)Aby the age of 16or 17.
Often teenagers are treated like(3)D bigger children,but they will never become(4)D and responsible if they are not allowed to make some decisions for themselves.If parents forbid their children from doing something,chances are that they will do it(5)Cwithout permission anyway.The role of a parent must,therefore,change from that of protector and keeper to that of friend and(6)A.
Yet even the most caring parents misunderstand their children sometimes,and some think of teenagers as insecure,stubborn and(7)C.As a result,teenagers always keep their(8)Bfrom their parents.Teens often(9)Bthat their parents repeat the same things over and over again and never listen to them.Parents must understand that teens need to be allowed to(10)Dtheir side of any problem and express their point of view.
Thus,more private and level-headed communication is needed for the parents.Every parent should try to schedule time to be(11)C  with their child,like taking a short trip together.This time allows parents to talk and listen without(12)C from work or other family members.It might also be good to encourage teens to(13)Aimportant issues at dinner.Discussion time shows teens that parents are interested in them and their lives.
A person's teenage years are a key time for them to identify their own(14)D,like distinguishing good from evil.Handling and improving communication with teenagers is not easy,but success will be (15)A for parents and teens alike.

1.Without any hesitation,he said,"I'd be better off dead."Hearing those words come out of my best friend's mouth tore my heart apart.He has repeated that phrase more than once,and my mind continually plays it over like a voice recording.
    I met him about three years ago.After knowing me for six months,he told me about his struggles with depression.Sadness was not the only emotion that came over me;I was shocked.He seemed so outgoing and happy all the time.I soon learned that he was physically and emotionally abused as a young child,causing him to have suicidal(自杀的)thoughts.
    He refuses to talk to others about his depression because he now distrusts adults,especially those in his family.Nevertheless,he feels as if I understand him and that I know the right words to speak.Therefore,when it comes to helping him,convenience is not in my vocabulary.It does not matter where I am or what I am doing,for he always comes first.
    Many students at his school laugh at him when they notice scars on his arms from cutting.As he sees it,other kids have every right to make fun of him.But no one holds such a right,so I encourage him to ignore the heartless kids who treat him badly.When he feels the weight of judging eyes or hateful voices,I always remind him that I care about him unconditionally.Just hearing me say I will always be his best friend seems to give him the security he needs to keep on going.
    My best friend once told me that if he had not had me,he would not be alive.He said that my encouraging words convinced him not to take his life.Our friendship has taught me that a single kind word can influence someone's life.With the fragility(脆弱)of life as it is,I believe in the necessity of encouragement.

  A.he is always ready to help his friend
  B.he hardly spares time to help his friend

58.From the passage we learn that the author's friendC.
  A.had a happy childhood but everything changed later
  B.wanted to share his story but no one listened
  C.took it for granted that he was made fun of
  D.was always of sad appearance
59.What does the author learn from his experiences?B

  C.How to get rid of depression.              D.The necessity of security.
