A [2015 •漳州改編]

      For ten weeks,in a great house on the island of St Thomas,Dr John C. Lilly tried to teach a six-year-old dolphin to speak English. Margaret Howe,an experiment (試驗) helper,would live day and night with Peter,a dolphin. And they would eat,bathe,sleep and play together from Sunday to Friday,with only Saturdays off for Margaret. She lived her life in swimming clothes — with a coat on colder evenings —and cut her hair short so that she could get on with Peter more easily.

      After a few days,Peter was becoming more and more interested in winning her attentions. He threw a ball against her shower towel to get her to play. As time went by,he only wanted to play ball with her and not on his own.

      The problem was that,just at the time Peter and Margaret began to get on well just as two best friends,the experiment ended and the lab was closed. After a few weeks,Margaret received the sad news that Peter had killed himself by refusing to breathe,and sinking to the bottom of his pool.

IV. [2015 .麗江改編]閱讀判斷閱讀下面的短文，并根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容判斷文后句中的正 (T) 誤(F) 。

       Hi Sam!Sorry I haven’t emailed recently — I've been revising for my exams. I have finished them now and I have got some time to relax and some money to spend on going out. Last weekend,I went to see a great film called Yes Man. If you haven't seen it,you must go!Jim Carrey plays the main character and it's very funny — and also quite encouraging. It's based on a book by Danny Wallace which is also called Yes,Man. I read the book a few months ago and that's humorous,too—I really laughed out loud!

       The book is a true story about what happens to the writer,Danny. Basically,he found that he was doing nothing all the time,just worrying about things and complaining about his life. He wasn't seeing his friends much,so he was lonely and bored. Then one day,he was on a bus in London when he sat down next to a man. The man was a stranger,but they started talking. Danny told him about his boring life and the man just gave him three words: “Say ‘yes’ more. ” And for Danny this was a turning point in his life. Those three words influenced everything he did. At that moment,he made a decision: “I will say ‘yes’ to everything!” And he wrote a book about what happened to him in the next year or so. Three years later,the book was made into a hit film.

       The film is based on the book although there are some differences. First,it's set in the US instead of England. Secondly,the main character is based on Danny,but he called Carl in the film. And what's more,he doesn’t meet a man on a bus. His turning point comes when he goes to a self-help class and they advise him to say “yes” more.

       In the film,Carl succeeds in changing his life and doing lots of crazy things： he has flying lessons,he learns to speak Korean and he rides a motorbike with no clothes on!The storyline isn’t very strong. It's quite weak,I suppose,but all Carl's stories are very interesting — especially because Jim Carrey is a very funny actor.

        I'm really interested in the film because there's a serious message,too. I believe in making the most of life and I've decided I'm going to be more positive. I've decided I'm not going to stay at home so much. I'm going to do more things,see my friends more and everything. Actually,that's why I

’m emailing you!It would be great if we could meet up soon. Let me know when you are free.

All the best,Adam.


() 31. This passage is an email from Adam to Sam.


() 32. Sam read the book Yes y Man while Adam watched the film based on the book.


() 33. Danny was the writer of the book Yes,Man.


() 34. Three differences between the book and the film are talked about in the passage.


() 35. After reading the book,Adam becomes more positive.

B [2015 .棗莊改編]

       When he was small,Hill was a famous bad boy.

       At the age of 9 ,his father married his stepmother. At that time they lived poor in the countryside while his stepmother was from a wealthy family.

       His father introduced Hill to his stepmother as he said ,“Dear,I hope you notice in the entire shire this is the worst boy,who has made me have no other way. Maybe before tomorrow morning he will throw a stone at you,or do a bad thing you will never imagine. ”

       To Hill's surprise,his stepmother went up to him with a smile,held up his head and looked at him carefully. She then turned around to tell her husband ,“You’re wrong. He is not the worst boy in the entire shire,but the cleverest and creative boy. Only he doesn’t find a place to show himself. ”

        His stepmother's words warmed his heart,his eyes full of tears. With this,he started building friendship with his stepmother. And this became the drive of his life,making him create 28 successful golden rules,which helped tens of thousands of ordinary people walk on the road to success.

       Before his stepmother came,no one praised him smart,and his father and neighbors considered him as a bad boy. However,his stepmother's words changed his life.

He understood his stepmother's strong feeling of interest in his family while he saw with his own eyes she had changed his family. Therefore,he would do as well as she expected him to.

       The strength from his stepmother made him a rich man and famous writer in the United States and one of the most important persons in the 20th century.
