A long time ago, on neighboring farms lived two brothers. But disagreement arose between them. It was the first serious one between them in 40 years of farming peacefully side by side. In the end, they fell apart.
One morning, a man with a carpenter’s toolbox came for some work. The elder brother said, “I just have a job for you. Look at that farm across the creek(河沟). My younger brother lives there. It was he who used his bulldozer(推土机) to dig the creek last week to upset me. So I want you to build me a fence, an 8-foot-high fence so I won’t see his place any more.” The carpenter smiled and said, “I see. I’ll try to do a wonderful job that satisfies you.” Then the elder brother left and went downtown.
At sunset when the farmer returned, the carpenter had just finished his job. The farmer’s jaw dropped open when he saw what the carpenter had done. To his surprise, there was no fence there at all! Instead, there was a bridge stretching from one side of the creek to the other! What a piece of work! He saw his
younger brother coming up to him with the hands outstretching. “You are quite a man to build this bridge after all I have said and done to you! ” The brothers stood at each end of the bridge, and then they met in the middle, taking each other’s hands. When they turned to see the carpenter, he was lifting his toolbox on his shoulder, ready to leave. “No, wait! Stay a few days. I’ve a lot of other work for you,” said the elder brother. “I’d love to stay on,” the carpenter said, “but I have so many more bridges to build.”
24. What was the life like for the two brothers before the disagreement?
A. They lived a poor and miserable life.
B. They were friendly neighbors, helping each other.
C. They never spoke to each other.
D. They lived together on the same farm.

The English expect each other to observe the rules of queuing, feel highly offended(冒犯) when these rules are broken, but lack the confidence or social skills to express their annoyance in a straightforward manner. In other countries, this is not a problem: in America, where a queue-jumper has committed a kind of rudeness rather than a sin(罪过), the response is a loud warning: the offender is simply told “Hey, you, get back in line!” or words to that effect. On the European continent, the reaction tends to be loud and argumentative; in some other parts of the world, queue-jumpers are likely to get away with the offense. Only rarely do the English actually speak up and tell the jumper to go to the back of the queue.
Queuing is almost a national pastime for the English, who automatically arrange themselves into orderly lines at bus stops, shop counters, ice-cream vans, entrances, exits and lifts.
In 1946, a Hungarian humorist described queuing as English “national passion”. “On the continent,” he said, “if people are waiting at a bus stop they walk around in a seemingly relaxed fashion. When the bus arrives they run towards it quickly… An Englishman, even if he is alone, forms an orderly queue of one.” In an update over thirty years later in 1977 he confirmed that this was still the case. After nearly another thirty years nothing much seems to have changed.
In many cases in Britain, queue-jumping is effectively prevented by non-verbal signals alone. When someone is considering jumping a queue, the queuers will start looking at him sideways, through narrowed, suspicious eyes. Then they move a bit closer to the person in front of them, just in case the jumper might try to insert himself in the gap. Frowns, glares and raised eyebrows—accompanied by heavy sighs, pointed coughs—are usually the worst that the person will suffer if he jumps a queue. Faced with all this the jumper will think better of it and retreat to the back of the queue.
28. According to paragraph 1, in England, queue-jumping is A. a common practice in many public places
B. a serious social problem in modern times
C. warned and prevented by shouting and pushing.
D. tolerated though it is considered highly offensive.
29. By quoting the description of a Hungarian humorist, the author intends to show .
A. queuing is a kind of automatic behavior for Englishmen
B. Englishmen are stubborn and too strict with themselves
C. other Europeans are more open-minded than Englishman
D. queuing is essential in keeping the public in order
30. According to the author, queue-jumping can usually be stopped .
A. by shouting and loud warning
B. with a confident and aggressive attitude
C. by using body language that shows annoyance
D. with signs of public rules
31. What is the author’s tone in writing this passage?
A. Indifferent. B. Humorous. C. Subjective. D. Objective.
D
As we all know, doctors are terrible pilots. They don’t listen because they already know it all. I was lucky: I became a pilot in 1970, almost ten years before I graduated from medical school. I didn’t realize then, but becoming a pilot makes me a better surgeon. I loved flying. As I flew bigger, faster planes, and in worse weather, I learned about crew resource management(机组资源管理), or CRM, a new idea to make flying safer. It means that crew members should listen and speak up for a good result, regardless of positions.
I first read about CRM in 1980. Not long after that, an attending doctor and I were flying in bad weather. The controller had us turn too late to get our landing ready. The attending doctor was flying; I was safety pilot. He was so busy because of the bad turn, he had forgotten to put the landing gear (起落架) down. He was a better pilot — and my boss — so it felt unusual to speak up. But I had to: Our lives were in danger. I put aside my uneasiness and said, "We need to put the landing gear down now!" That was my first real lesson in the power of CRM, and I’ve used it in the operating room ever since.
CRM requires that the pilot/surgeon encourage others to speak up. It further requires that when opinions are from the opposite, the doctor doesn’t overreact, which might prevent fellow doctors from voicing opinions again. So when I’m in the operating room, I ask for ideas and help from others. Sometimes they’re not willing to speak up. But I hope that if I continue to encourage them, someday someone will keep me from “
32. What does the author say about doctors in general?
A. They pretend to be good pilots. B. They are quick learners of CRM.
C. They like flying by themselves. D. They are unwilling to take advice.
33. The author deepened his understanding of the power of CRM when A. his boss landed the plane too late B. his boss operated on a patient
C. he saved the plane by speaking up D. he was in charge of a flying task
34. In the last paragraph “landing gear up” probably means .

( A )
Once there was an 11-year-old boy who went fishing with his father in the middle of a New Hampshire lake. On the day before bass(巴斯鱼) season opened, they were fishing early in the evening, catching other fish with worms. Then the boy tied a small silver lure(鱼饵) and put it into the lake. Suddenly he felt that something very big pulling on the lure. His father watched with admiration as the boy skillfully brought the fish beside the bank. Finally he lifted the tired fish from the water. It was the largest one he had ever seen, but it was a bass.
The boy and his father looked at the big fish. The father lit a match and looked at his watch. It was 10 p.m.—two hours before the season opened. He looked at the fish, then at the boy. ―You’ll have to put it back, son,‖ he said.
―Dad!‖ cried the boy. ―There will be other fish,‖ said his father. ―Not as big as this one,‖ cried the boy. He looked around the lake. No other fishermen or boats were in sight in the moonlight. He looked again at his father.
Even though no one had seen them, nor could anyone ever know what time he had caught the fish, the boy could tell from his father’s voice that the decision couldn’t be changed. He threw the huge bass into the black water. The big fish disappeared. The boy thought that he would never again see such a big fish.
That was 34 years ago. Today the boy is a successful architect in New York City. He often takes his own son and daughters to fish at the same place.
And he was right. He has never again caught such a large fish as the one he got that night long ago. But he does see that same fish ... again and again ... every time he has an ethical (道德的) decision to make. For, as his father had taught him, ethics are simple matters of right and wrong. It is only the practice of ethics that is difficult.
36. What happened when the big fish turned out to be a bass?
A. The boy and his father didn’t know what to do with the big fish.
B. The father lit a match in order to check the time.
C. The boy threw the bass back into the water willingly.
D. They worried other fishermen might discover what they had done.
37. From the text we know that the father _________.
A. didn’t love his son B. always disagreed with his son
C. disliked the huge fish D. was firm and stubborn
38. The successful architect went fishing with his children at the same place because _______.
A. they might catch a big fish there
B. it was a most popular fishing spot
C. he was taught a moral lesson there
D. their children enjoyed fishing there
39. What does the story imply (suggest）?
A. It is easy to say something, but difficult to do.
B. An ethical decision is always easy to make.
C. It’s hard to tell right from wrong sometimes.
D. Fishing can help one to make right decisions.
( B )
Parents are a child’s first teachers. But some parents never learned from good examples. In New York City, a nonprofit agency called Covenant House tries to help homeless young mothers become good parents.
The twelve or so teenagers who live at the shelter attend parenting classes four days a week. The class is called Mommy and Me. Teacher Delores Clemens is a mother of five and a grandmother. She teaches basic skills, like how to give a baby a bath and how to dress a baby depending on the season.
She remembers one student who learned from her mother not to pick up a crying baby. The mother said that would only make the child needy and overly demanding. Delores Clemens says, ―That’s not true. You have to hold your baby! He is crying for a reason. If you never pick him up, he’s going to keep crying. Pick your baby up. Cuddle your baby. Hug him! And she started to do that. They just want a little cuddling and a little love. And it works!‖
Delores Clemens says her students also learn how to be good mothers by letting themselves be mothered. Around three hundred fifty teenage mothers graduate from Covenant House's Mommy and Me class every year.
In class, with her baby son is Natasha．She lived on the streets. She is glad not only for the warmth and shelter of Covenant House. As she told reporter Adam Phillips, she is also glad for the help they offer in seeking a more secure life.
The World Health Organization says the United States has forty-one births for every one thousand girls age fifteen to nineteen. That is higher than other developed countries, as well as some developing ones. By comparison, northern neighbor Canada has fourteen births and southern neighbor Mexico has eighty-two.
40. What is the text mainly about?
A. Parents who are a child’s first teachers.
B. A nonprofit agency that offers a more secure（安全的）life.
C. A class where teens learn mothering and are mothered.
D. A kind teacher who helps homeless young mothers.
41. Covenant Houses’ Mommy and Me class is intended to _____.
A. provide homeless young mothers with a warm shelter
B. help homeless young mothers become good parents
C. help mothers in New York be good parents
D. teach some parents how to love their children
42. What can we know about Delores Clemens from the text?
A. She thinks a crying baby should be picked up and hugged.
B. She has a mother of five and a grandmother.
C. She teaches advanced skills on how to be good mothers.
D. She is very glad for the warmth and shelter of Covenant House.
43. According to the World Health Organization, which country has the highest births
for girls age fifteen to nineteen?
A. Canada B. The United States of America

( C )
As you move around your home, take a good look at the things you have. It is likely that your living room will have a television set and a video, and your kitchen a washing machine and a microwave oven. Your bedroom drawers will be filled with almost three times as many clothes as you need. You almost certainly own a car and possibly a home computer, holiday abroad at least once a year and eat out at least once a week.
Now, perhaps, more than ever before, people are wondering what life is all about, and what it is for. Seeking material success is beginning to trouble large numbers of people around the world. They feel that the long hours work culture to make more money is eating up their lives, leaving them very little time or energy for family or Six percent of workers in Britain took the decision to downshift last year.
One couple who downshifted is Daniel and Liz. They used to work in central London. He was a newspaper reporter and she used to work for an international bank. They would go to work by train every day from their large house in the suburbs, leaving their two children with a nanny. Most evenings Daniel wouldn’t get home until eight or nine o’clock and nearly twice a month he would have to fly to New York for meetings. They both earned a large amount of money but began to feel that life was passing them by.
Nowadays, they run a farm in the mountains of Wales. ―I always wanted to have a farm then,‖ says Daniel, ―and we took almost a year to make the decision to downshift. It’s taken some time getting used to, but it’s been worth it. We have to think twice now about spending money on car repairs and we no longer have any holidays. However, I think it’s made us stronger as a family, and the children are much happier.
Liz, however, is not quite sure. ―I used to enjoy my job, even though it was hard work and long hours. I’m not really a country girl, but I suppose I’m gradually getting used to looking after the animals. One thing I do like, however, is being able to see more of my children. My advice for other people wanting to do the same is not to think about it too much, or you might not do it at all.‖
44. The passage tells us that A. people seldom work long hours to make money

(Text 2)
M: Hurry up, Linda! I hear that there are not many tickets left for the football match.
W: I am ready now. Let’s go. It is the early bird that catches the worm.
(Text 3)
W: Oh, Jackie, are you reading The Sunday Times? What a big surprise! Since when do you read it?
M: Since I discovered its big help-wanted section.
(Text 4)
W: We all talk about how liberated we are, but in fact women are still not equally treated.
M: I don’t think so. You’ve got the vote, and you’ve got your careers—I think you’ve got everything important.
(Text 5)
M: Your yard is always so beautiful, Cathy. You must have a gardener.
W: Oh, no. It would cost at least $50 a month to hire someone to do the work, so I do most of it myself. I enjoy taking care of the flowers, but I have to force myself to do the weeding and cut the grass.
(Text 6)
M: ⑦It’s 1:30 pm now. I’ve missed my plane.
W: Well, actually, the flight has been delayed due to the bad weather.
M: Great. That’s good news for me.
W: May I check your luggage and see your ticket, please?
M: Here you are. Do I leave from Gate 15 or Gate 10? I can’t remember.
W: Gate 20. ⑥Oh, sorry, it has been changed to Gate 18, ⑦and your plane is taking off in 30 minutes.

M: But how do you deal with it now? ⑨Do you plan to fix it by yourself?
W: ⑨Yes, I want to have a try. By the way, could you do me a favor?
M: ⑨Of course.
(Text 8)
W: Good morning, sir. Can I help you?
M: ⑩I’d like to check out. My name is Neil Green. I stayed in Room 124.
W: Just a moment, please, Mr. Green. Sorry to have kept you waiting. Here’s your bill. The total is 950 yuan.
M: 950 yuan! Is there a mistake?
W: Please check the bill carefully and see if there’s any mistake.
M: Of course, I’ll check it. The room is 150 yuan per day. I stayed for 3 days. (11)The car is rented by the day. The charge is 200 yuan per day. I used it for 2 days. I just drove to the shopping mall and the beach.

W: What happened?

W: Why don’t you talk to him?
M: I tried, but it didn’t work. He doesn’t pay any attention to my words. I’ve complained to the landlord, but he hasn’t done anything about it.
W: If nothing else can be done, you’d better find another place.
M: Yeah…(16)But I love this apartment. I would rather find another solution.
(Text 10)
W: Toasts are given on a variety of occasions. When you are asked to give a toast, keep that person as the center of attention. (20)Here are some tips of making a great toast speech.
(17)First, outline the speech. Even if you think you are the best speechwriter, you know, there’s always a chance that you will forget something during your speech. A small note card with an outline can help you focus on the event and the person. Writing can also help you organize your speech.
(18)Second, introduce yourself to start the speech. Not everyone at the event knows who you are. In the brief introduction, mention how you know the person you are toasting.
Third, tell a short story about the person you are toasting.
Fourth, refer to the purpose of the event. Congratulate the person that you are giving the toast for, and end the toast.
(19)Lastly, keep your toast short. This is the key to making a toast speech. The focus of the event is on the person you are toasting and not on your toast itself.
