They are the kindest people I have ever met. They always smile and say “hello”. Kathy and I can only speak a few words of Thai, so smiling is the best way to show our kindness.

It is true that people with better education are usually able to get better paying jobs. In other words, they have more chances to choose a good job while people with little or no education don’t. It seems that the purpose of education is to make people get jobs. But this isn’t accepted by all people.
Some people may think that a person should spend the best years of his life to get education only for a way of living. This was probably one of the earliest reasons of education. In fact, if education is just a way of making a living, people don’t need to spend so much time in school. People can get education for a living in a short time. Subjects like history and geography need not be taught to everyone. Even language and mathematics need not be taught in detail 詳細地, either. Here it is clear that education is much more than teaching a man to get a way of living.
Education is well-rounded and it is mainly for improving a man. It is not only to teach him to speak, read and write, but also to develop his creative thinking and other abilities. After that, it is to make him a wise man and thankfully enjoy the achievements of human. Education is to make a man lead a better life. Educated people are expected to be able to listen to good music, read good books, watch plays and most of all take an interest in the world.
I would agree that making a good living is an important reason for education, but certainly not the most important or the main reason.
56. People with little education usually ________.
A. spend a long time in school B. have a good chance to get a job
C. spend the best years to choose jobs D. have fewer chances to get a good job
57. The earliest education was probably to _______.
A. make a man lead a better life B. teach a man to write and think
C. make people get a way of living D. teach people to read good books
58. The underlined word “well-rounded” in the pass age means“________”in Chinese.
A. 圓滿的 B. 嶄新的 C. 公平的 D. 全面的
59. It is expected that educated people will be able to ________.
A. accept education as a way of living
B. take an interest in the whole world
C. develop their abilities to make plays
D. learn subjects like language and math
60. The passage mainly tells us that ________.
A. education should make a man improve
B. people can get education in a short time
C. people should be able to get better paying jobs
D. all subjects are so important for a way of living
C

22. A nobody “沒有人”;everybody “每個人”;somebody “某個人”;anybody “任何人”。由答語後句句意“我自己打掃的”可推知沒有人幫助她，故選 A。

24. D A項意為“尺寸，尺碼”;B項意為“設計”;C項意為“價格”;D項意為“顏色”。由答語句意“當然!你穿紅色總是看起來很漂亮。”可知問句句意應為“你認為這條裙子的顏色適合我嗎?” 故選D。
25. A get on“上車”。
26. B 由本題題幹及句意“大部分學生喜歡那些很理解他們的老師。”可知本題含有定語從句，引導定語從句時which修飾表示物的先行詞;who修飾表示人的先行詞;where修飾表示地點的先行詞;when修飾表示時間的先行詞。空格前的teachers是表示人的名詞，用who來修飾，故選B。
27. D look out of “向……外看”。句意：不要向窗外看，危險!
28. A even if引導讓步狀語從句，意為“即使”。句意：即使我一夜不睡，也要幫助你。
29. B as usual“像往常一樣”;at first“最初;起初”;after all “畢竟”;so far “到目前為止”。由But now it’s widely used in every field.但是它現在被廣泛應用於每一個領域中的now現在及表示轉折關係的but推知前句句意：“最初網路只被政府使用”。故選B。

32. A the number of表示“……的數目”，後面的謂語動詞用單數形式。a number of表示“許多”，修飾可數名詞。

34. B 句意為“六月是一年中的第六個月”。
35. B visitor的所有格是visitor’s;後句用名詞性物主代詞mine作主語，代指my car。
Ⅱ. 36. A conversation意為“交談，談話”;report意為“報告”;survey意為“調查”;speech意為“演講”。由文章第三段第三句中的this phone call changed his life這次通話改變了他的人生可知，此處應 選A項，表示“但最近和他媽媽的一次談話改變了他的人生”。
37. D so意為“所以”;but意為“但是”;therefore意為“所以”;however意為“然而”，用於句首時，與句子其他部分要用逗號隔開。由前句句意“他過去不常給他媽媽添麻煩”和空格後面的敘述，特別是第二段第二句Unfortunately, Martin still caused problems.可知，此處應錶轉折關係。再由空格後的逗號可知，應選D項。

39. B 由上文His mother couldn’t afford to pay for her child’s education.他的媽媽不能支付她孩子的教育費用。可知，此處句意應為“為了做到這一點，她不得不工作，所以經常不在家”。have to意為“不得不”，表示由客觀原因決定必須做某事，故選B。
40. C look after意為“照看，照顧”，是動詞短語，應用副詞修飾，故排除D項。而A、B兩項意思不符合語境。well是副詞，意為“好，好地”，符合語境要求。句意：他的媽媽儘可能好地照顧他。
41. D 由上句句意“不幸的是，馬丁仍然闖了不少的禍”和後半句句意“他經常麻煩纏身”可知，此處句意應為“他對學習不感興趣”。短語be interested in doing sth.意為“對做某事感興趣”，故選D。
42. B worried意為“擔心的”;patient意為“有耐心的”;careful意為“仔細的”;serious意為“嚴肅的”。由馬丁四處闖禍可知，此處句意應為“幸運的是，他的媽媽非常有耐心，而且她從未放棄過盡力幫助他”，故選B。

45. C to one?s surprise是固定搭配，意為“令某人驚訝的是”，此處surprise用作名詞，意為“驚訝，驚奇”。
46. B 分析該句結構可知，空格處在此引導一個表語從句，且在從句中作needed的賓語，what有此雙重功能，故選B。
47. D see意為“看見”，強調看見的結果;notice意為“注意”，指注意到某事或某物，強調動作;help意為“幫助”;watch意為“注視”，強調狀態。分析上下文可知，此處表示“……爸爸雖然不再與我們在一起了，但他一直在注視著我……”，強調的是一種持續的狀態，故選D。
48. A since意為“自從”;before意為“在……之前”;after意為“在……之後”;when意為“當……的時候”。由後面my father died, I have been afraid of being alone...可知，此處符合“since+一般過去時態的從句，主句用完成時態”這一句型特點，所以選A。

Dear Tina,
Thank you for your letter.
I know that you want to visit China. That’s a good idea. As you know, Beijing is the capital of China. It has a long history, and there are many places of interest, such as the Great Wall, the Palace Museum and the Summer Palace. Summer and Autumn are the best time to come to Beijing. You can go surfing in Dalian or Qingdao in summer. The waves there are terrific. I’m sure you will have a good time in China. I’m looking forward to seeing you soon. Best wishes!
Yours,

Saturday, March 24th
We have arrived in the hot,wet city of Bangkok. This is our first trip to Thailand 泰國. All the different smells make us want to try the food. We are going to eat something special for dinner tonight. The hotel we are staying in is cheap, and very clean. We plan to stay here for a few days, visit some places in the city, and then travel to Chiang Mai in the North.
Tuesday, March 27th
Bangkok is wonderful and surprising! The places are interesting. We visited the famous market which was on water,and saw a lot of fruits and vegetables. Everything is so colorful, and we have taken hundreds of photos already! Later today we will leave for Chiang Mai. We will take the train north, stay in Chiang Mai for two days, and then catch a bus to Chiang Rai.
Friday, March 30th
Our trip to Chiang Rai was long and boring. We visited a small village in the mountains. The village people here love the quiet life—no computers or phones. They are the kindest people I have ever met. They always smile and say “hello”. Kathy and I can only speak a few words of Thai, so smiling is the best way to show our kindness. I feel good here and hope to be able to come back next year.
56. The diaries above show the writer’s _________ days in Thailand.
A. 3 B. 7 C. 15 D. 30

It is true that people with better education are usually able to get better paying jobs. In other words, they have more chances to choose a good job while people with little or no education don’t. It seems that the purpose of education is to make people get jobs. But this isn’t accepted by all people.
Some people may think that a person should spend the best years of his life to get education only for a way of living. This was probably one of the earliest reasons of education. In fact, if education is just a way of making a living, people don’t need to spend so much time in school. People can get education for a living in a short time. Subjects like history and geography need not be taught to everyone. Even language and mathematics need not be taught in detail 詳細地, either. Here it is clear that education is much more than teaching a man to get a way of living.
Education is well-rounded and it is mainly for improving a man. It is not only to teach him to speak, read and write, but also to develop his creative thinking and other abilities. After that, it is to make him a wise man and thankfully enjoy the achievements of human. Education is to make a man lead a better life. Educated people are expected to be able to listen to good music, read good books, watch plays and most of all take an interest in the world.
I would agree that making a good living is an important reason for education, but certainly not the most important or the main reason.
59. People with little education usually ________.
A. spend a long time in school B. have a good chance to get a job
C. spend the best years to choose jobs D. have fewer chances to get a good job
60. The earliest education was probably to _______.
A. make a man lead a better life B. teach a man to write and think
C. make people get a way of living D. teach people to read good books
61. It is expected that educated people will be able to ________.
A. accept education as a way of living B. take an interest in the whole world
C. develop their abilities to make plays D. learn subjects like language and math
62. The passage mainly tells us that ________.
A. education should make a man improve
B. people can get education in a short time
C. people should be able to get better paying jobs
D. all subjects are so important for a way of living
C

And people don’t talk to each other anymore. They are too busy to talk ，too busy to eat，too busy to think...
Life used to be simple，but it isn’t anymore.

Many places in the world need more fresh water. Every country is trying to find ways to t urn salt water into fresh water.
On some places, the sun is not hot enough or it does not shine every day. In such places, people begin to get fresh water from the sea water by heating it. This way costs more money, but it works faster than the sun.
But heating is not the only way to get fresh water from salt water. People are trying other ways.
One way is to make the sea water cold less than zero. The fresh water will turn into ice first. Take the ice out. That’s the fresh water you want.
Which way is the best? The one that gives most water with the least money. It may be a different way for each place.

It has a long history,and there are many places of interest,such as the Great Wall,the Palace Museum and the Summer Palace. Summer and Autumn are the best time to come to Beijing. You can go surfing in Dalian or Qingdao in summer. The waves there are terrific. I’m sure you will have a good time in China. I’m looking forward to seeing you soon. Best wishes!
Yours,
Li Ming

It is true that people with better education are usually able to get better paying jobs. In other words, they have more chances to choose a good job while people with little or no education don’t. It seems that the purpose of education is to make people get jobs. But this isn’t accepted by all people.
Some people may think that a person should spend the best years of his life to get education only for a way of living. This was probably one of the earliest reasons of education. In fact, if education is just a way of making a living, people don’t need to spend so much time in school. People can get education for a living in a short time. Subjects like history and geography need not be taught to everyone. Even language and mathematics need not be taught in detail 詳細地, either. Here it is clear that education is much more than teaching a man to get a way of living.
Education is well-rounded and it is mainly for improving a man. It is not only to teach him to speak, read and write, but also to develop his creative thinking and other abilities. After that, it is to make him a wise man and thankfully enjoy the achievements of human. Education is to make a man lead a better life. Educated people are expected to be able to listen to good music, read good books, watch plays and most of all take an interest in the world.
I would agree that making a good living is an important reason for education, but certainly not the most important or the main reason.
51. People with little education usually .
A. spend a long time in school
B. have a good chance to get a job
C. spend the best years to choose jobs
D. have fewer chances to get a good job
52. The earliest education was probably to .
A. make a man lead a better life
B. teach a man to write and think
C. make people get a way of living
D. teach people to read good books
53. The underlined word “well-rounded” in the passage means “ ” in Chinese.
A. 圓滿的 B. 嶄新的 C. 公平的 D. 全面的
54. It is expected that educated people will be able to .
A. accept education as a way of living
B. take an interest in the whole world
C. develop their abilities to make plays
D. learn subjects like language and math
55. The passage mainly tells us that .
A. education should make a man improve
B. people can get education in a short time
C. people should be able to get better paying jobs
D. all subjects are so important for a way of living
B
Cause and effect is one way to explain things that happen around us. Many things happen because something caused or influenced them to happen. Sometimes it is hard to look at a cause and find out what causes the effect. It may help you to start with the effect and use your reasoning 推理的 skills. Think about all the things you know that could be reasons for the effect you can see.
For example, you may see someone putting on a heavy jacket. This is the effect. To look for a cause, think to yourself, “What would make someone put on a heavy jacket?” Maybe the person is going outside into very cold weather. Maybe the person works in the penguin pen 企鵝圈養地 at Sea World. Maybe the person is going to visit an ice skating rink where the air is kept very cold. All of these things could be a cause for putting on a heavy jacket.
Now, think about a second example. The effect is a boy named Abi has to go to the head teacher’s office. What are the possible causes? Maybe he bullied 欺負 another student. Maybe he is just being picked up early. Maybe he is being given a prize!
Here is another example for you to think about its cause and effect. Cait, 13, was trying to fall asleep when her 8-year-old brother, Doug, came into her room. He looked around a bit, but seemed really out of it. Then Doug went back into the hallway and stood there looking straight up at the hall light for quite a while. Little brothers can be very strange, but this was really much too strange. Cait didn’t know what to do. Just then, Cait’s father appeared and explained that Doug was sleepwalking. What’s the cause and effect, could you tell?
56. According to the second paragraph, which of the following is an effect?
A. Someone puts on a heavy jacket.
B. Someone works in the penguin pen.
C. Someone will go outside into cold weather.
D. Someone will go to visit an ice skating rink.
57. Abi has to go to the head teacher’s office. Which of the following isn’t the possible cause?
A. He bullied another student.
B. He is going shopping.
C. He is being picked up early.
D. He is being given a prize.
58. What was Doug doing when his sister Cait tried to fall asleep?
A. He was going outside.
B. He was reading a story.
C. He was sleepwalking.
D. He was looking for his dad.
59. Which of the following is cause and effect?
A. Tony got up and had a glass of water.
B. We came home and found him sleeping.
C. The ball was lost and a window was broken.
D. Tim was late again and his teacher got angry.
60. What is the best title for the text?
A. Truth and lies B. Work and sleep
C. Cause and effect D. Life and dreams

Why don’t you wait in the car to get warm? By the way, my name is Bryan Anderson.” It took Bryan about fifty minutes to fix the car.

As the old lady was going to pay the $10 bill, she remembered Bryan’s words.
The old lady paid one hundred-dollar bill. But when the waitress returned with the change, the lady was gone. On the table she saw a small note. Her eyes were filled with tears when she read it, “Somebody once helped me the way I’m helping you. If you want to pay me back, continue being kind to others. ” Under the note were nine more $100 bills.
Was the old lady an angel? The waitress was so excited that she called her husband to tell the story.“Bryan…Bryan Anderson my dear…you’re not going to believe what has happened… ”

21. A 由“不要緊”可知“沒有人可以讓任何人都滿意”。故選A。
22. B try to do sth. 意為“努力做某事”，是固定用法，故先排除C、D兩項;由“但他們失敗了”及“他們打了一架”可知“他們努力不生氣”，故B項正確。
23. D be busy doing sth. 是固定用法，意為“忙於做某事”，故排除A、C兩項;B項後少了介詞for，故正確答案是D。句意為“我們都在忙著為即將到來的英語考試做準備”。
24. A 形容詞修飾不定代詞時，形容詞要後置;肯定句中用something，否定句和疑問句中用anything，故選A。
25. C 本題考查“祈使句+or+陳述句”結構。or意為“否則，要不然”。故選C。
26. B be home to...是固定用法，意為“是……的家園”。
27. C until“直到……為止”;unless“除非”;though“儘管”;because“因為”。四個選項只有though放在句中才能使句意完整，符合結構要求。句意為“我喜歡乘火車旅行，儘管它不如乘飛機快”。故選C。
28. A according to“根據，依據”;look forward to“期望”;lead to“導致”;thanks to“多虧”。 根據句子前後的內容可知according to能使句意完整。句意為“根據這篇短文，那是一個激動人心的故事”。故選A。
29. B 表示“百分之……”要用“數詞+percent”，percent沒有複數形式。故選B。
30. C a number of…“許多……;大量……”，作主語時謂語動詞用複數;the number of…“……的數量”，作主語時謂語動詞用單數。故C項正確。
31. C 動詞不定式短語作目的狀語。
32.B 句意:為了使孩子遠離危險，我們建議父母不要把孩子單獨留在家裡。advise sb. to do sth. “建議某人做某事”， advise sb. not to do sth. “建議某人不做某事”，均為固定搭配。結合句意應選B。
33. B offer to do sth. 意為“主動提出做某事”。
34. C try to do sth. 是固定用法。
35. B 在主動語態中，make後跟動詞原形;在被動語態中，make後的動詞原形前要加上to。故選B。
36. A conversation“交談，談話”;report“報告”;survey“調查”;speech“演講”。由第三段中的this phone call changed his life這次通話改變了他的人生可知，此處應選A，表示“但最近和他媽媽的一次談話改變了他的人生”。
37. D so“所以”;but“但是”;therefore“所以”;however“然而”，用於句首時，與句子的其他部分要用逗號隔開。由“他過去不常給他媽媽添麻煩”和空格後面的敘述，特別是第二段的Unfortunately, Martin still caused problems. 可知，此處應表示轉折關係，再由空格後的逗號可知應選D項。
38. C 空格後的more difficult是形容詞的比較級，而選項A和D用於修飾形容詞或副詞原級;選項B是形容詞，修飾名詞複數;much可修飾比較級，表示程度，故選C。
39. B 由His mother couldn’t afford to pay for her child’s education. 可知，為了做到這一點，她不得不工作，所以經常不在家。
40. C look after“照顧，照料”，是動詞短語，應用副詞修飾，故排除D項;A、B兩項意思不符合語境。well是副詞，意為“好，好地”，符合語境“他的媽媽儘可能好地照顧他”。
41. D 由“不幸的是，馬丁仍然闖了不少的禍”和“他經常麻煩纏身”可知，他對學習不感興趣。be interested in意為“對……感興趣”，故選D。

43. A make a decision是固定搭配，意為“做出決定”，故選A。
44. D argue with“與……爭吵”;say不與with搭配;discuss的搭配為discuss sth. with sb. ; talk with“與……談話”。由後面的with可知，B、C兩項首先排除，而A項在此不符合語境，故應選D項。此處句意：老師說馬丁有必要跟他媽媽談一下。
45. C to one’s surprise 是固定搭配，意為“令某人吃驚的是”，此處surprise用作名詞，意為“驚訝，驚奇”。
46. B 分析該句結構可知，空格處在此引導一個表語從句，且在從句中作needed的賓語，what有此雙重功能，故選B。which可以引導表語從句，但意為“哪一個”，表示有範圍的選擇;that可以引導表語從句，但在從句中不作任何成分;how也可以引導表語從句，但只能在從句中作狀語。
47. D see“看見”，強調看見的結果;notice“注意”，指注意到某事或某物，強調動作;help“幫助”;watch“注視”，強調狀態。分析上下文可知，爸爸雖然不再與我們在一起了，但他一直在注視著我，強調的是一種持續的狀態，故選D。
48. A since“自……以來”;before“在……之前”;after“在……之後”;when“當……的時候”。由my father died, I have been afraid of being alone…可知，此處符合“since+一般過去時態的從句，主句用完成時態”這一句型特點，故選A。
49. C always“總是，一直”;hardly“幾乎不”;really“確實”;just“僅僅”。由下文的He has been working hard and is now one of the best students in his class. 可知，馬丁確實發生了變化，故選C。
50. B advice“建議”;love“愛”;idea“主意”;decision“決定”。通讀全文可知，是媽媽的愛使他改變了，故選B。
51. D 根據文章第一段第二句話“In other words, they have more chances to choose a good job while people with little or no education don’t. 換句話說，他們有更多的機會來選擇一份好工作，然而接受過較少教育或沒接受過教育的人卻不行。”可知選D。
52. C 根據文章第二段第一、二句話“Some people may think that a person should spend the best years of his life to get education only for a way of living. This was probably one of the earliest reasons of education. 有些人也許認為一個人應該把他一生中最好的歲月用來獲取教育，只是為了一種生存的方式。這可能是最早的教育的原因之一。”可推知此題選C。
53. D 該單詞所在的句子是第三段的主題句，而該單詞是該主題句的關鍵詞。由本段的內容可知，教育的目的是從各個方面提高人的素質，由此可推知該單詞的意思是“全面的”，故選D。
54. B 根據文章第三段的最後一句話“Educated people are expected to be able to listen to good music, read good books, watch plays and most of all take an interest in the world. ”可知，受教育的人被認為能夠聽好音樂、讀好書、觀看戲曲，而最重要的是對世界感興趣，故選B。其他選項都片面。
55. A 根據文章第三段的第一句話“Education is well-rounded and it is mainly for improving a man. ”可知，教育是全面的，它主要是為了提高人的整體素質。故選A。
56. A 由第二段中For example, you may see someone putting on a heavy jacket. This is the effect. 例如，你可以看到有人穿上厚的夾克。這是結果。可知，“有人穿上厚的夾克”是結果。
57. B 由第三段中What are the possible causes? Maybe he bullied another student. Maybe he is just being picked up early. Maybe he is being given a prize! 可知，A項“他欺負別的學生”;C項“他被提前接走”;D項“他獲了獎”，這三項都可能是Abi去校長室的原因。只有B項“他去購物”在文中沒有提及，不可能是原因。故選B。
58. C 由最後一段中Cait, 13, was trying to fall asleep when her 8-year-old brother, Doug...Cait’s father appeared and explained that Doug was sleepwalking. 可知，當Cait要睡覺時，她的弟弟在夢遊。
59. D 本題為推理判斷題。根據文章所述，D項中，Tim再次遲到是原因，他老師生氣是結果。而其他三項都沒有因果關係。
60. C A項“事實和謊言”;B項“工作與睡眠”;C項“原因和結果”;D項“生活和夢想”。通讀全文可知，本文以例項的形式闡述了原因和結果的辯證關係。故選C。
61.No, she didn’t. Because she thought the man would/was going to hurt her. 由第一段中的Although he was smiling, the old lady was worried. “Is he going to hurt me?”可知，這位老婦人起初並不信任Bryan,因為她認為Bryan會傷害她。
62.It was very normal for him to help others. 用It’s+形容詞+for sb. to do sth.表達“對某人來說做某事是……的”。
63.雖然她看上去很疲倦，但是她還是微笑著為顧客服務。 although引導讓步狀語從句，意為“儘管，雖然”;look tired 意為“看起來很疲憊”;serve the customers意為“為顧客服務”;with a smile on her face意為“她面帶微笑”。
