     Ms. Keller often said," Without Annie Sullivan, the name of Helen Keller would have remained unknown."
     As a little girl, Sullivan was no stranger to hardship (困苦). She almost couldn't see anything and was, at
one time, locked in a dark underground room of a mental institution (精神病院) because of mental problems.
Little Annie Sullivan would attack anyone who came near sometimes. However, an elderly nurse believed there
was hope and she offered to help the child. Every day she made all her efforts to give little Annie words of love
and encouragement.
     At last, doctors noticed a change in the girl. They ever saw an ger and hostility (敌意) in her eyes, while
now they noticed a little gentleness and love. They moved her upstairs where she continued to become better.
Then the day finally came when this seemingly "hopeless" child was released (释放).
     Annie Sullivan grew into a young woman with a wish to help others as she, herself, was helped by the kind
nurse. It was she who saw hope in Helen Keller. She loved her, played with her until the flickering candle
became a bright light to the world. Annie Sullivan brought wonders into Helen's life. But without that kind and
warm heaned nurse, how could little Annie become such a kind-hearted teacher?
     And so it goes. Just how far back does the chain of love make bigger? And how far forward will it lead?
     You can never ignore the power of your love. It is a fire that, once lit, may burn forever.

1. What does the underlined sentence in the second paragraph mean?

A. When young, Sullivan was not afraid of hardship.
B. Hardship knew Sullivan when she was young.
C. When young, Sullivan experienced much hardship.

B. Sullivan was once mentally ill.
C. Sullivan recovered with the help of an old nurse.
D. Sullivan tried to be as helpful as the old nurse.

3. Which of the following has the closest meaning to the underlined word " flickering"?

A. Burning brightly.
B. Burning unsteadily.
C. Shining violently.
D. Shining strongly.

4. According to the development of the passage, the right order may be___.
①People noticed a little gentleness and love in Sullivan.

Young adult filmmakers all hope to show their works in international festivals like Sundance and Toronto. But what about really young filmmakers who aren’t in film school yet and aren’t, strictly speaking, even adults?

They are at the heart of Wingspan Arts Kids Films Festival, tomorrow, in a setting any director might envy: Lincoln Center. Complete with “red carpet” interviews and various awards, the festival has much in common with events for more experienced moviemakers, except for the age of the participants: about 8 to 18.

“What’s really exciting is that it’s film for kids by kids,” said Cori Gardner, managing director of Wingspan Arts, a nonprofit organization offering youth arts programs in the New York area. This year the festival will include films not only from Wingspan but also from other city organizations and one from a middle school in Arlington, Virginia. “We want to make this a national event,” Ms. Gardner added.

The nine shorts to be shown range from a Claymation biography of B.B. King to a science fiction adventure set in the year 3005. “A lot of the material is really mature,” Ms. Gardner said, talking about films by the New York City branch of Global Action Project, a media arts and leadership-training group. “The Choice is about the history of a family and Master Anti-Smoker is about the dangers of secondhand smoke.” Dream of the Invisibles describes young immigrants’ feelings of both belonging and not belonging in their adopted country.

The festival will end with an open reception at which other films will be shown. These include a music video and full-length film whose title is Pressures.

第二部分阅读理解（共20小题，每小题2分，满分40分）
A
It was graduation day at Etihad Training Academy, where the national airline of the United Arab Emirates holds a seven-week training course for new flight attendants.
Despite her obvious pride, Ms. Fathi, a 22-year-old from Egypt, was amazed to find herself here. “I never in my life thought I’d work abroad,” said Ms. Fathi, who was a university student in Cairo when she began noticing newspaper advertisements employing young Egyptians to work at airlines based in the Persian Gulf.
A decade ago, unmarried Arab women like Ms. Fathi, working outside their home countries, were rare. But just as young men from poor Arab nations poured into the oil-rich Persian Gulf states for jobs, more young women are doing so.
Flight attendants have become the public face of the new mobility for some young Arab women, just as they were the face of new freedoms for women in the United States in the 1950s and 1960s. They have become a subject of social anxiety and fascination in much the same way.
For many families, allowing a daughter to work may call her virtue into question. Yet this culture is changing, said Musa Shteiwi, a sociologist at Jordan University in Amman. “We’re noticing more and more single women going to the gulf these days,” he said. “It’s still not exactly common, but over the last four or five years it’s become quite an observable phenomenon.”
Many of the young Arab women working in the Persian Gulf take delight in their status as pioneers, role models for their friends and younger female relatives. Young women brought up in a culture that highly values community, have learned to see themselves as individuals. The experience of living independently and working hard for high salaries has forever changed their beliefs about themselves, though it can also lead to a painful sense of separation from their home countries and their families.
—From New York Times (December 22, 2008)
56. It can be inferred from the passage that young Arab women _________.
A. go to work abroad after American women’s example
B. didn’t start to work abroad until the late 20th century
C. are commonly used to living and working separately
D. expect to take the same family responsibilities as men
57. According to the passage, the Arab women flight attendants can be described as _________.
A. proud, homesick or independent                 B. honest, outstanding or optimistic
C. mature, enthusiastic or energetic                 D. painful, desperate or conservative
58. How do the public respond to young Arab women’s new mobility?
A. The public think highly of it.            B. The public care very little about it.
C. The public show both interest and anxiety.   D. The public are strongly against it.
59. The author intends to tell the readers that __________.
A. Arab women can hardly find any work
B. flight attendants are badly needed in the gulf
C. flight attendants lead quite a different life
D. young Arab women’s values are changing
