My son was badly hurt in a fire. After he 36 from a series of treatments, the doctors told him they would not do any operation for six months 37 it took long for the skin to stop shrinking (收缩). So, he had to return to college with a visible 10-inch 38 on his face.
I said to my son, “Keaton, 39 will pay any more attention to your scar 40 you do. If it does not bother you, it will not bother 41 .” He took my advice to heart and returned to school with his head 42 high ― glad he was alive.

One of my friends in college was very 48 . At first, when people met him, they noticed his 49 for about 10 seconds. This man felt 50 about himself and spent most of his time 51 about other people’s comfort and welfare. 52 , people ignored his looks. What people 53 was his kindness and his concern for them. He didn’t act in an ugly way so people didn’t treat him as an ugly man.
Therefore, concentrate on what you value 54 yourself, because if you can see that beautiful person, everyone you are in contact with will see the same 55 .

第三部分：阅读理解 （共20小题；每小题2分，满分40分）
第一节 选择题（共17小题，每小题2分，满分34分）阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。
A
China news, Beijing, Feb. 9 ? Housing price in China has
always aroused heated discussions among property developers and ordinary
Chinese. To many property developers and local government officials, housing
price in China is still low compared with many developed countries. However,
the average housing price in the United States is only 8,000 yuan per square
meter, while in China, it is even higher than in the United States. This shows
that there are some bubbles(泡沫) in Chinese real estate market, the
International Finance News reported.
Although the average price of residential houses in the
United States, after converted to Renminbi, is about 8,000 yuan per square
meter, the houses in US are not sold in terms of building area, as most Chinese
property developers do when they sell their houses. If US property developers
sell their houses according to the building area, then the housing price will
be even lower than 8,000 yuan per square meter. In most big Chinese cities,
such as Beijing, Shanghai, and Shenzhen, houses are sold at a price even higher
than those in the US.
The high housing sales price
in large cities in China proves that Chinese real estate market does have some
bubbles. Moreover, Chinese houses can not be compared with houses in US in
terms of building quality, environment and supporting facilities. Furthermore,
it should be noted that American people’s average income is several dozen times
higher than that of Chinese people. How can the Chinese afford to buy a house
which is even more expensive than that sold in US?
At the beginning of 2007, Chinese government issued a set of
policies that aimed to benefit the public. Now in order to reduce the high
housing prices, the government can regulate(控制) the real estate
market by raising tax on property industry and controlling the release of loans
and lands to property developers. At the same time, the government should allow
people to build more houses through various fund-raising channels, such as
funds collected from buyers or raised by working units. By applying these
multiple means, it is expected that the high housing prices can be lowered.
56. What is the average housing price per square meter in China?
A. 8000 yuan. B. 10000
yuan.
C. 7000 yuan. D. It’s
not mentioned here.
57. Which of the following does NOT support the idea that the average
housing price in China is even higher than in the United States?
A. Chinese houses can not be
compared with houses in US in terms of building quality, environment and
supporting facilities.
B. American people’s average income
is several dozen times higher than that of Chinese people.
C. The houses in US are not sold in
terms of building area, as most Chinese property developers do when they sell
their houses.
D. The population who need houses
in China is larger than in the United Stated.
58. How many measures are mentioned in the last paragraph in order to reduce
the high housing prices?
A. Four.
B. Three.
C. Two.
D. One.
59. What is the main idea of this passage?
A. The housing price in China is so high that the government should do something useful to
prevent it.
B. There are some bubbles in Chinese
real estate market.
C. The average housing price in
China is even higher than in the United States.
D. Chinese government issued a set
of policies that aimed to benefit the public.
B
When people ask me why I’m so negative, I always tell them I’m simply looking out for my best interests and everyone else’s. But negativity gets a bad reputation. Everywhere you look, someone’s talking about the power of positive thinking.
My life is good and I contribute it to imagining the worse and then being pleasantly surprised when the worst doesn’t happen. Last week, I read about a report out of the Netherlands suggesting this outlook increases my chances of dying from heart disease.
This news might have moved me to change my ways, but then I saw an article about some new data from Denmark. Over the last three decades, Danes have been shown to have higher rates of “life satisfaction” than any other Western country. Their key to contentment? Low expectations.
As the article explained, Danes know they don’t come from the largest, blondest or most temperate nation on the earth. They don’t expect to be the winners of any game. So when good things happen, they are that much happier.
This is the philosophy I’ve been living for years. It’s why I go to every party expecting to have a miserable time and leave for every vacation thinking it will rain. These things rarely happen, so every time things don’t turn out so bad, I’m relieved and joyful. That’s the power of negative thinking.
I strongly doubt if there is a sense of contentment being too positive, especially when expectation gets confused with hope. Americans seem unable to separate these ideas. Our entire belief is wrapped up in the myth of turning dreams into reality, of constantly reaching for higher goals, of never settling. Obviously, this can-do spirit turned us into the most powerful nation in the world. But I’ve always thought we would get better results with a belief like “the pursuit of contentment”.
It is interesting how it sounds strange that people often hope to get the best, while making preparations for the worst”. But that’s the problem with positive thinking. Because it ignores
satisfaction, which is really desirable, and runs after high expectations, which are less likely to be
achieved. So let’s stop being so optimistic.
60. What is the main reason why Danes have higher rates of “life satisfaction”?
A. Danes live a rich life. B. Danes have few social problems.
C. Danes are very optimistic. D. Danes don’t expect too much.
61. What does “this outlook” in the 2nd paragraph refer to?
A. Positive thinking. B. Negative thinking
C. Setting a high goal. D. Imaging a bright future.
62. Where does the writer come from?
A. The Netherlands B. Denmark C. The U.S.A. D. Japan
63. Which of the following proverbs agrees with the writer’s point of view?
A. Don’t count your chickens before they are hatched.
B. Hope for the best, prepare for the worst.
C. God helps those who help themselves.
D. Nothing is impossible to a willing heart.
C
Heading back to the room for dinner and a hot shower may sound like the act of a tired tourist, but in the traditional Japanese inn --- or ryokan --- those activities can be as interesting as anything along the sightseeing trail. “People going looking for a sort of nostalgic (怀旧的),old-fashioned, traditional view of Japanese life will find it most easily in a ryokan,” said Peter Grilli, president of Japan Society of Boston, Massachusetts.
Many ryokan spang up in the 17th century to put up feudal lords (领主) traveling along Tokaido highway to Edo (now Tokyo). Today tourists looking for a taste of the country’s historic lifestyle find varying levels of understated elegant in ryokan throughout the country.
A typical stay starts with a greeting from the inn’s staff and a change from street shoes into slippers. An attendant leads guests to their rooms, where slippers are removed before walking on the rice straw flooring, called tatami. Walking slowly along behind a kimono-clad (和服) attendant on the creaky wood floods of Fukuzumiro ryokan’s hallways is like stepping back in time. The inn was established in 1890 by a former samurai(武士).
Tim Paterson, 33, a banker living in Tokyo, has stayed at several ryokan. This New Zealand native leaves after a recent stay at Fukuzumiro. “I think it’s quite good mixing culture with history and not just going to see it, but living in it, staying in it.” he said. Sliding glass doors line the inn’s rural hallways, bringing in the sound of trickling water and the quietness of the stone and tree-filled courtyards outside.
64. From the 1st paragraph, we can see that ________.
A. there is no dinner or a hot shower in ryokan
B. such activities as dinner and shower in ryokan can take you back in time
C. such activities as dinner and shower mean the same both in ordinary inns and traditional inns
D. such activities as dinner and shower are more important than the sightseeing for tourists
65. What’s the purpose of building so many ryokan in the 17th century?
A. To provide rooms for the noble when they travelled.
B. To keep the Japanese traditional style of life.
C. To make people feel elegant in the ryokan.
D. To attract more tourists to put up in the ryokan.
66. Which of the following shows the right order of tourists entering the ryokan?
a. An attendant shows guests to their room
b. The guests take off their shoes
c. The staff greet the guests
d. The guests walk on tatami
e. The guests take off slippers
f. The guests put on slippers
A. bcdefa B. cbfaed C. cadbef D. badecf
67. From Tim Paterson’s words, in the last paragraph, we can infer that ______.
A. he will never stay in such a ryokan again
B. he stays in such a ryokan just for its long history
C. he feels relaxed and culturally enriched
D. he would rather live in such a ryokan than go back home
D
Peaceful Use of Space Resources Drives China’s Space Program
China’s successful launch of its manned spacecrafts has drawn worldwide applause. It has become the third nation in the world capable of putting men into space.
It is widely believed home and abroad that the latest progress made by China will surely improve national cohesiveness（内聚力）and make the country’s 1.3 billion people more confident in their future in terms of social and economic progress.
However, some people in and outside China describe China’s manned space program as a prestige project which yields little economic benefit.
They argue that billions of US dollars spent on the decade-old space program may be better used for poverty relief and education as millions of Chinese still have a poor living and many children cannot afford basic schooling. However, mankind does need to make use of space resources for sustainable human development.
Space technology has become increasingly important for the exploration and peaceful use of space resources due to the shrinking reserve of natural resources on the Earth.
Lunar reserve of isotope helium 3 is sufficient for human need for about 10,000 years, which is attractive to the mankind being troubled by high oil prices and limited oil reserve.
China has benefited from the dividend of its investment in space sector. Space technology has become an indispensable part of people’s daily life, such as weather forecast, telecommunications, disaster reduction, and resources prospecting.
Striving hard to feed its 1.3 billion people and more in the future, China has been developing improved species of crops on the basis of space technology, mostly through recoverable satellites and spacecraft.
Information obtained from Shenzhou-3 and Shenzhou-4 in earth observation has been used for maritime(海上的) pollution control and desertification control projects, which is useful for China and other parts of the world.
China has listed space technology and information technology among the country’s seven high-tech fields in its national high-tech research and development program initiated in 1986.
68. Which point of view may the author agree to?
A. It is unnecessary to explore resources in space.
B. The successful launch proves that our space technology is the most advanced in the world.
C. The successful launch is of great significance to the development of our country.
D. Though the launch is successful, China yields almost no economic benefits from it.
69. What does the underlined word perhaps mean in the 3rd paragraph?
A. Fame. B. Success. C. Failure. D. Pride.
70.Some people think China’s manned space program is of little economic value as they think about the following EXCEPT ____.
A. there are many poor areas in China lacking supports
B. many children can’t go to school because of poverty
C. it will delay the progress of economy
D. it cost too much on the space program
71. Which supports the idea of the underlined sentence in paragraph 4?
A. The mankind was once troubled by high oil prices and limited oil reserve.
B. There will be enough useful resources for human use on the earth.
C. The mankind is feeling nothing about less and less oil resource.
D. Natural resources are shrinking all over the world.
72. Space technology of China has functioned in __________ aspects.
A. Eight. B. Seven C. Six D. Five

There looked to be little relief ahead for farmers in Henan province this week, with experts predicting the severe drought that has starved their crops for more than 120 days will continue.
Liu Mancang, vice-governor of the province, had felt raindrops on his face as he walked to his office on Saturday. Hoping it signaled the end of the worst dry spell for 60 years, he rushed to call the local meteorological administration.
But the news he received was not good. And at a press conference later that day, Liu, also vice-commander of the drought-relief team covering China’s biggest farming region, admitted: “The drought will go on as there isn’t going to be enough rain in the near future.”
On February 7, Henan province had its first rainfall for 110 days ? but it was just 6 mm. During February and March, a crucial time that can dictate the success of a June harvest, crops needed 30 mm, said Zhu Mengzhou, deputy director of the province’s agricultural bureau.
“If the drought continues, we may lose at least 25 percent of the production this year,” he added.
And with temperatures rising, the arrival of pests may deteriorate the situation.
“It was reported there would be rainfall around February 17 but we are not optimistic it can relieve the huge drought,” Yu Hequn, vice-deputy director of Henan’s irrigation bureau, told China Daily on Saturday.
The province has spared no expense in attempting to save its 78.9 million mu (5.26 million hectares) in winter wheat, having spent 1.169 billion yuan ($170 million) of its relief fund to put 1.82 million people on average every day and a total of 620,000 vehicles into action.
Wheat fields in central plain areas, especially those near water resources such as reservoirs, aqueducts, rivers and wells, have been irrigated effectively. But the 28 million mu in the western uplands has been difficult to reach.
“We endeavor to dig wells, divert water from rivers and organize people to transport water to relieve the drought,” said Yu. But of the 9 million-plus mu that cannot be helped, he explained: “The cost is too much. The irrigation facilities, most built in the 1960s, are out of order. Farmers have nothing to do but rely on rain.”
The drought also revealed cracks in the current farming system, he said.
“It is too expensive to adopt the advanced irrigation technology for individual households,” Yu told China Daily.
He said he hoped the country’s new land transfer policy will speed up the process of large-scale planting and mass production, which would enable more effective farming management and save a lot of costs.
73.what is the best title of this passage?（不超过9个单词）
74. Find in the passage a word closest in meaning to the underlined word “the worst dry spell”（3个单词）
75 What is Henan doing to try to relieve its farmers of drought?（不超过13个单词）

As the US wakes up to China’s rising status (地位) as an economic and strategic competitor, US parents are urging their children to learn Chinese, reports Julian Borger.
The US is being swept by a rush to learn Mandarin (普通话) -- from wealthy New York mothers hiring Chinese nannies (保姆) for their small children to a defence department education project in Oregon.
The forces driving Mandarin’s momentum (势头) are parental ambition for children facing a future in which China is almost certain to be a major player, and the government is worried about that America may get left behind in that new world.
The bottleneck is the supply of teachers. Mandarin instructors are difficult to import and difficult to train. There are visa problems in bringing over teachers from China but the biggest barrier is cultural. Teaching in Asia is generally done by rote and the change to western, interactive styles of instruction can be a large leap（跳越）.
On the other hand, it requires enormous firmness for westerners to learn a language like Chinese, with its thousands of written characters. According to the Asia Society in New York, all of America’s teacher-training institutions turn out only a couple of dozen homegrown Mandarin teachers.
One way to ease the shortage is to find native Mandarin speakers and use fast-track methods to train them. However, the majority of Chinese-Americans grew up speaking Cantonese, the dialect（方言）spoken in Hong Kong, where their parents came from. Many are themselves signing on as Mandarin students at the private language schools springing up on the west coast.

wonders of the world. M: Actually it was started more than 2,500 years ago,
(13.综合推断) when China was divided into various states.
Three of the northern states built defensive walls along the borders to keep
off the enemies. W: But I thought the wall had always been built by Qin Shi
Huang, the first Emperor of China. M: Well, yes. You see he united the whole country in the
third century BC, and one of the things he did was to join the separate walls
into one wall and built more walls from the East Coast right across the length
of north China to the west. W: It is certainly something that the nation could be proud
of. I hear this is the only human construction on earth that can be seen from
the moon. By the way, how high is the wall? M: The average height is 7 meters; the average width is

flies, Tarcisio stands by the door of his plane, welcoming his Chinese ( 18 ) passengers.
Hardly speaking any Chinese, he can still read the curiosity in their eyes
after he greets them: “Why is a foreign pilot working for a Chinese airline?” In 2002,
Sichuan Airlines bought five airplanes from Brazil. Short of pilots who have
the skill to fly and care for such airplanes, the company invited 15 pilots
from Brazilian airlines in January 2003. This is the first time over the last
few decades that China has invited foreign pilots, who have won the favor of
their passengers with their experience and skills, to work on domestic flights. 38-year-old
Tarcisio is one of the 15 pilots China has invited. With ( 19 ) 18 years of
experience, he has flown a total of 8,500 hours. Although he has been to many
countries around the world, Tarcisio had never flown over China, a ( 20 ) mysterious,
beautiful country in his eyes. “I
want to go to China, even at my own expense.” He told his friends many times.
Today, he is used to his life and work here. When I asked him about his
impression of China, he happily said like a child, “China? Amazing! I wish that
I could work here longer!” 21. 【答案】B 【解析】考查冠词。这句话的意思是“教育自始自终伴随人的一生，早在人们上学之前就开始了，应是人生命中不可缺少的一部分”。第一空为不定冠词，“a process”作前面“a lifelong
process”的同位语；第二空为定冠词，表示“开始上学”这一特定的事件。 22. 【答案】A 【解析】考查情态动词。这句话的意思是“与陌生人的一次随意谈话可能会使人认识到自己对其他宗教其实一无所知”。根据句意，此处情态语气较弱，应为“也许，可能”。 23. 【答案】D 【解析】考查代词。关键是看出空格处要替代“the prices”，句意为“价格系统是一个复杂的网状系统，包括经济生活中一切产品买卖的价格，也包括各种服务的价格。” 24. 【答案】B 【解析】考查引导时间状语从句的从属连词。关键理解句子的前后动作的时间关系。句子意思是“作曲家写完了一部作品，得由演奏者将其演奏出来，其他人才能得以欣赏”。注意此题的关键词之一“no one”。 25. 【答案】C 【解析】考查介词。本句句意为“卡耐基认为个人应该通过努力工作来获得进展，但他也强烈地感到有钱人应该运用他们的财富来为社会谋取福利”。 26. 【答案】A 【解析】考查谓语动词。本句句意为“有证据显示，有梦睡眠和无梦睡眠这两种类型的睡眠取决于动物的生活方式。”它的主语为“the two types of sleep”，客观论述时时态应为一般现在时。 27. 【答案】D 【解析】考查it的用法。It用作形式宾语的特殊结构之一为“动词+ it + when (if)-从句”。本句意思是“要是我不必做那么多工作，那就太好了”。 28. 【答案】A 【解析】考查时态。句意为：“我在光明学校教英语期间，经常使用录音机”。指过去经常发生的动作，用一般过去时。 29. 【答案】B 【解析】此题容易误选D，认为强调的是原因状语从句“because we were late”。但实际上，此题的答案为B，强调的是句子主语“our being late”，此题若还原成非强调句，即为：“Our
being late caused him to serve dinner an hour later than usual.” 30. 【答案】A 【解析】考查形容词。因为“It couldn’t be any worse.”意思是“(他的工作做得)非常差”，与后文内容相符。 31. 【答案】C 【解析】考查名词性从句。可以用还原法做。答语还原是“I was trying to prove where I was last night.” 32.【答案】D 【解析】考查连词。此题关键词是“just because”，它已经引导了一个原因状语从句，表示后半部分是一个句子，中间不再需要连词，所以不填。 33.【答案】B 【解析】考查“with+逻辑主语+不定式”的用法。句中说“有高考这个最重要的考试要担心，我不得不在接下来的两个月努力学习。” 34. 【答案】C 【解析】考查定语从句。先行词是表示时间的词“the hours”，并在定语从句中作状语，因此选关系副词“when”。定语从句与先行词被“back to me”分开。 35.【答案】A 【解析】考查非谓语动词。这个句子的意思是“为了商人们在世界贸易谈判中扮演更有效的角色，他们必须……”，要用不定式表目的。 36-40 B A D A C 41-45 B B C B D 46-50 A B D C C 51-55 D B D A C 答案解析： 36：儿子遭受烫伤，一系列治疗后痊愈。 37：because表原因。 38：带着伤疤返回大学。 39-40：没有人比你自己更注意伤疤。 42：儿子采纳我的意见，昂着头返回大学上学。 43：事实上，每个人身上都有缺点。 44：注意虚拟条件句。 45：后文有提示。 47：根据这些同样错误的标准。 48：我的朋友长得丑。 49：注意他的外表10秒钟。 50：自我感觉好。 51：care

Mandarin speakers Possible Version: Being passionate, honest and hard-working, a
good student is always listening and learning. Personally speaking, I strongly
believe that honesty is of utmost importance among dozens of good qualities. There is a proverb that goes ‘Honesty is the
best policy’, and it seems as true as it was when first coined. The most
important element in human relationships, whether business or personal, is
trust. Here is one of my secrets. I once lied to my
parents because of my poor scores. Having known the real fact from teachers,
they praised and encouraged me, showing their deep love. Later days, my
conscience swallowed me, growing as I told lie after lie in an effort to
conceal my original deceit. I gave it up, and chose to be frank. Wow! It is better
to stick to the truth! From then on, I have
kept the following in my minds: If it is not true, don’t say it. If it is not
right, don’t do it. Honesty is not only the best policy, but also a principle,
which is absolutely essential for the good and happy living of life.
