阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中，选出最佳选项。

John was waiting for the girl whose heart he knew，but whose face he didn’t，the girl with the rose．Thirteen months ago，in a Florida library he took a book off the shell and found himself interested in the notes in the margin(页边)．The soft handwriting showed a thoughtful soul and insightful(有洞察力的)mind．

In front of the book，he discovered the name，Miss Hollis Maynell． With time and effort he got her address．He wrote her a letter introducing himself and inviting her to keep in touch．

During the next year and one month the two grew to know each other through the mail．A romance started．John requested a photograph，but she refused．She felt that if he really cared, it wouldn’t matter what she looked like．Later they agreed on their first meeting—7:00 pm at Grand Central Station in New York．

“You’ll recognize me,” she wrote，“by the red rose I’ll be wearing my coat．” So at 7：00 he was in the station looking for the girl with the red rose．

A girl in a green suit was coming toward him，her figure long and slim and her eyes were blue as flowers．Almost uncontrollably he came to her，and just at this moment he saw Hollis Maynell—a woman well past 40．The girl was walking quickly away．

He did not hesitate，saying，“I’m John，and you must be Miss Maynell．I am so glad you could meet me． May I take you to dinner?”

The woman smiled, “I don’t know what this is about，son，” she answered，“but the young lady in the green suit begged me to wear this rose on my coat．And she said if you were to ask me out to dinner，I should tell you that she is waiting for you in the restaurant across the street．She said it was some kind of test!”

A．John considered her as one of her old friends

B．she took excellent notes with a soft handwriting

NOWADAYS, most animated (动画) films rely heavily on computer technology． But his magical world – where witches (魔法师) cast spells and castles float in the sky – is brought to life by hand． Nevertheless, Hayao Miyazaki is referred to as Japan’s Walt Disney and considered by many to be the world’s greatest living animator．

This month, the 72-year-old Miyazaki announced his retirement． The Japanese animator has directed 11 animated full-length films over the past four decades, including the Oscar-winning Spirited Away (《千与千寻》) and his latest release, The Wind Rises (《起风了》), which tells the life story of a man who designed Japanese World War II fighter planes．

Just as The Wind Rises shows, Miyazaki is well-known for his obsession with flight, especially human flight． Other striking aspects of Miyazaki’s films include his themes of environmental protection and the horrors of war．

Miyazaki’s work is also famous for its lack of clearly defined good and evil characters． He sees the 21st century as a complex time when old norms need to be re-examined．

As a storyteller, he is an inventor of fairy tales full of mystery． In the Miyazakian universe, wizards (巫师) turn into birds of prey; young girls are transformed overnight into 90-year-old women; greedy parents are changed into pigs; and shooting stars become fire demons (恶魔)．

As a visual (视觉的) artist, most of Miyazaki’s grace comes from his vivid (鲜明的) colors and lovingly drawn landscapes – a rolling meadow (草地) covered with flowers and shadowed by clouds, or a range of rocky hills rising toward snow-capped mountain peaks

People attribute Miyazaki’s success to his long pursuit of his hand-drawn technique, although in an interview with CNN he called himself an “extinct species” in the age of digital animation．

A recent television documentary on the making of The Wind Rises showed a disappointed Miyazaki throwing a pile of drawings into the trash． He is said to have redrawn thousands of frames of the much-praised Princess Mononoke (《幽灵公主》) when they did not meet his standards．

But his huge attention to detail has earned him the respect of the entire animated film world． Even John Lasseter – head of Pixar, the famous US computer animation studio – once called Miyazaki “one of the greatest filmmakers of our time”．

1.What can we know about Miyazaki’s film The Wind Rises?

A．It was put on a long time ago．

B．Its hero is a soldier．

C．It describes horrors of war．

D．It is an Oscar-winning film．

2.What does the underlined word “obsession” mean in paragraph 3? ?

A．Enthusiasm B．Hate

C．Envy D．Sympathy

3.According to the article,Miyazake’s films _____．

A．are full of mystery and imaginative characters and landscapes

B．are likely to use hand-drawn technique and redrawn abstract frames

C．are full of new norms and clearly defined good and evil characters

D．are likely to demonstrate environmental protection and anti-war themes

4.What is the main idea of this article ?

A．Miyazake’s impact on Japanese culture

B．the characteristics of Miyazake’s films

C．what inspired Miyazake to create his films

D．what made Miyazake succeed

A few years ago, I was on a plane with my friend, waiting for it to take off． The pilot’s voice was heard throughout the plane: “Sorry for the delay, ladies and gentlemen． Our engines don’t work． We are going to jump-start them． Once we get them going, we’ll get up in the air and see what happens．”

That was all he said． “See what happens?” Shouldn’t we have had a better plan than that? At that point． I could only laugh nervously． One woman started crying, “Oh no! We are going to crash!’’ There were sighs of hopelessness and anxiety, and we hadn’t even taken off yet．

The pilot even seemed unhappy． He told us our one engine was working double time, and his plan was to get up in the air and see what happens! Then we did． We got up in the air, and what happened? Nothing． We arrived in Norfolk, and no sooner had the wheels touched down than applause burst out as everyone on the airplane breathed a sigh of relief．

While I do prefer planning better than “see what happens” when it comes to flying, it really isn’t such a bad idea for life．All too often, people stop trying to achieve their goals just because they don’t have a guaranteed result． But success will never be guaranteed． The best thing that you can do is just get up in the air, and see what happens． If your effort is to build a business then get up in the air and see what happens! Don’t give yourself all the reasons why you can’t． Do not wait until you have everything you need． You never will!

If your goal is to start a friendship, say “Hello”, get up in the air and see what happens! The results could be very rewarding．

If your goal is to learn a new skill, get up in the air and see what happens! It might not be as difficult as your think． It could be fun!

When traveling, i hope that my pilot has a more detailed plan than “we will see what happens” ． But in life, it is not a bad strategy at all．

1.What was the pilot’s attitude toward the situation?

A．Disappointed and panicked

B．Surprised and honest

C．Comforting and encouraging

D．Hesitant and weak．

2.What was the passengers’ reaction when they arrived in Norfolk ?

A．They were thankful and relieved．

B．They cheered for the pilot’s correct operation．

C．They complained that the plane was not safe enough

D．They just walked off the plane as if nothing had happened．

3.What can we know from the passage?

A．The plane was delayed because of its wheels．

B．The plane arrived at the airport safely．

C．It was a terrible journey for the author．

D．Most of the passengers remained calm on hearing the bad news

4.What is the main idea of this article ?

A．“we will see what happens” is not a good plan for pilots

B．Try to have everything prepared before you do something

C．When you want to do something, you have to actually do it ．

D．Never stop chasing your goals even if they are certain to fail

There are three separate sources of danger in supplying energy by nuclear power．

First, the radioactive (有放射性的) material must travel from its place of production to the power station． Although the power stations themselves are strongly built, the containers used for the transport of the materials are not． Normally, only two methods of transport are in use, namely road or rail． Unfortunately, both of these may have an effect on the general public, since they are sure to pass near, or even through, heavily populated areas．

Second, there is the problem of waste． All nuclear power stations produce wastes that in most cases will remain radioactive for thousands of years． It is impossible to make these wastes non-radioactive, and so they must be stored in one of the inconvenient ways that scientists have invented． For example, they may be buried under the ground, or dropped into deserted mines, or sunk in the sea． However, these methods do not solve the problem, since an earthquake could easily break the containers．

Third, there may occur the danger of a leak (泄漏) or an explosion at the power station． As with the other two dangers, this is not very likely, so it does not provide a serious objection (不赞成，反对) to the nuclear program． However, it can happen．

Separately, these three types of dangers are not a great cause for worry． Taken together, though, the probability of disaster is extremely high．

1.Which of the following is not true?

A．It is likely that a leak or an explosion occurs at a power station．

B．It is not usual for radioactive materials to be conveyed across land．

C．The containers are likely to be broken by an earthquake．

D．Nuclear wastes remain risky in most cases for many years．

2.The author thinks that the ways to store nuclear wastes are __________．

A．easy B．impossible

C．reasonable D．ineffective

3.What do we learn from the last paragraph?

A．The power station is a place that frees from danger．

B．The dangers of nuclear energy could be prevented．

C．The general public are opposed to the nuclear program．

D．By itself, none of the three dangers is very likely to lead to much worry．

4.What is this passage about?

A．Uses of nuclear power．

B．Dangers from nuclear power．

C．Public anger at nuclear power．

D．Accidents caused by nuclear power．

To forgive is a virtue, but no one has ever said it is easy． When someone has deeply hurt you, it can be extremely difficult to let go of your hate． However, forgiveness is possible, and it can be surprisingly beneficial to your physical and mental health． People who forgive show less sadness, anger and stress and more hopefulness, according to a recent research．

1.Try the following steps:

Calm yourself．2.You can take a couple of breaths and think of something that gives you pleasure: a beautiful scene in nature, or someone you love．

Don’t wait for an apology． Many times the person who hurt you does not intend to apologize． They may have wanted to hurt you or they just don’t see things the same way．

3.Keep in mind that forgiveness does not necessarily mean becoming friends again with the person who upset you．

Take the control away from your offender(冒犯者)． Rethinking about you hurt gives power to the person who causes you pain． Instead of focusing on your mounded feelings, learn to look for the love, beauty and kindness around you．

4.If you understand your offender, you may realize that he or she was acting out of unawareness, fear, and even love． You may want to write a letter to yourself from your offender’s point of view．

Don’t forget to forgive yourself．5.But it can rob you of your self-confidence if you don’t do it．

A．Why should you forgive?

B．How should you start to forgive?

C．Recognize the benefits of forgiveness．

D．Try to see things from you offender’s angle．

E．For some people, forgiving themselves is the biggest challenge．

F．To make your anger die away, try a simple stress-management technique．

G．If you wait for people to apologize, you could be waiting an awfully long time．

Opinions are divided about if we should buy products promoted by stars．

Some students say that they prefer to buy products promoted by stars because of most of the stars care about the quality of the product they are going to advertise．

Besides, buying those products is a way to support the stars they like．

However, other think what some stars really care is money but not the quality of the product when they make a advertisement．

In addition, the product that a star advertises is not necessary suitable for everyone．

To my opinion, we should be cool and sensible while chosen a product．

The main aspect we are supposed consider is not the advertisement or the star and the quality of the product and its real usefulness in our daily life．
