Big things were happening in my life the summer after I turned 13.

I realized that we actually had some things in   小題13: , especially when it came to movies and TV shows. We  小題14:  a lot of time together hanging out watching TV. That gave us a chance to talk and getto know each other.
Better still, Dan showed an interest in me that I had never experienced from my own father. Dan was always around when I needed   小題15:  on school or friends. Once I began to warm up to Dan, the three of us began spending a lot of time together. We often went out to eat and took short trips.   小題16:, I discovered that I had the happy family that I had always wanted.
I now realize my parents were  小題17:  about getting the divorce. Their divorce was the best thing to happen for all of us. My father also found happiness—he   小題18:  and had another child, my half-sister, Michelle.
At 13, I learned an important   小題19:  —change is not always the worst thing that can   小題20: . Sometimes, it is just what we need the most.

On the day of a big event, many people came to Big Bend Mountain to watch. John Henry and the salesman stood side by side. Even early in the day, the sun was burning hot.
The competition began. John Henry kissed his hammer and started working. At first, the steam-powered drill worked two times faster than he did. Then, he started working with a hammer in each hand. He worked faster and faster. In the mountain, the heat and dust were so thick that most men would have had trouble breathing. The crowd shouted as clouds of dust came from inside the mountain.

第二節(jié):完型填空(共20小題,每小題1.5分,滿分30分)
Recently I was invited to a friend’s house for supper—and had a meal I have never had before.
All the friends invited were a little  36 . It’s not that Ben is unsociable, or a bad cook, but it’s just that he never 37 more than he has to. So how come he was inviting us round for a meal? Had he bought something 38  for his friends? He greeted us at the door and showed us into his dining room where a 39 table was waiting for us. “Nothing but the 40  for my friends! ” said Ben. We all sat down and looked 41 at each other—what was he  42 ?
Ben returned with four bowls of hot soup. “It’s a 43 of carrots, potatoes and tomatoes, ”said Ben. The next 44 was also a little strange 45 we didn’t quite know what it was again. “It’s just another mixture of vegetables. ”
As we ate we chatted and finally the 46 turned back to what we were eating. “Was there a recipe(菜譜) for this, ”asked Marina, “or did you 47 it up? ”Ben put his fork down. “What I cooked 48 what I could find. ”Marina was surprised. “But you can find anything in supermarkets these days. ”“But there’s 49 choice in what you can find 50 supermarkets, ” he replied.
 51 that we had all finished the food, Ben decided to tell the truth. He had read recently that supermarkets usually 52 away 5 percent of their food every day. So Ben decided to look inside his local supermarket bins. There he found food that was slightly out of 53 , boxes of thrown-away vegetables and fruit.

Life will probably be very different in 2050. First of all, it looks as though TV channels will have disappeared by 2050. Instead, people will choose a program from a “menu” and a computer will send the program directly to the television. Today, we can use the World Wide Web to read newspaper stories and see pictures on a computer thousands of kilometers away. By 2050, music, films, programmers, newspapers and books will come to us in this way.
In many places, agriculture is developing quickly and people are growing fruit and vegetables for export. This uses a lot of water. Therefore, there could be serious shortages. Some futurologists (未來學(xué)家) predict that water could be the cause of wars if we don’t act now.
In future, cars will run on new,clean fuels and they will go very fast. Cars will have computers to control the speed and there won’t be any accidents. Today, many cars have computers that tell drivers exactly where they are.By 2050, the computer will control the car and drive it to your destination. Also, by 2050, space planes will fly people from Los Angeles to Tokyo in just two hours.
A number of large companies now use robots instead of people who ask for pay rises, or go on strike, and can not work 24 hours a day. By 2050, we will see robots everywhere—in factories, schools, offices, hospitals, shops and homes.
By 2050, we will be able to help blind and deaf people see and hear again. In the last few years, scientists have discovered how to control genes and have already produced clones of animals. By 2050,scientists will be able to produce clones of people and decide how they look, how they behave and how much intelligence they have. Scientists will be able to do these things, but should they? 
小題1:By 2050, people will get information mainly by _______.

In the face of rising gas costs, many consumers are beginning to consider the choice of a hybrid(混合動力的) vehicle--one which operates on both gas and electricity. All of the models of hybrid car will save money, but are they really effective when all of the costs of maintenance(維修) and other considerations are included in?
First of all, consider the cost of buying a hybrid vehicle. Depending on the model, hybrid vehicles can cost anywhere from $2,000 to $5,000 more than the traditional models. However, some say that as the hybrid cars become increasingly more available as a reflection of demand, the prices can be expected to drop, making them more cost effective when it comes to the initial investment(初始投資).
Also important to keep in mind is the fact that the hybrid cars have a much more specialized system than the standard vehicle, and will therefore require more specialized workers to repair them when they break down.
It seems as though, at least for the time being, the purchase of a hybrid vehicle for the average consumer may not be the best choice when it comes to saving money. It is important to keep several things in mind, however, when considering purchasing a hybrid model. Many consumers are choosing to purchase these cars because they represent a significant development in terms of environmental concerns over standard models. They also mean that as a whole, Western nations will become less dependent on oil as the only means of power.
Finally, it is necessary to remember that the hybrid car is a very new technology. Developed only within the last few years, the technology is still in the starting stage, where costs will continue to be high. As time passes, the development of the hybrid technology will begin to push prices down to the point where hybrids are more competitive with the traditionally fueled models of the past.
72.What is the purpose of writing this article?
A. To tell the readers about the advantages of hybrid cars.
B. To warn the readers of the disadvantages of hybrid cars.
C. To advise people to think twice before buying hybrid cars.
D. To call on people to buy hybrid cars to protect the environment.
73.Which is the benefit of hybrid cars?
A. Consuming less gas.         B. Being easier to drive.
C. Lower initial investment.  D. Lower maintenance cost.
74.What do we know from the passage?
A. The hybrid technology is very new and mature as well.
B. It’s not easy to repair a hybrid car due to its special system.
C. Many average consumers can not afford to buy hybrid cars.
D. The traditional vehicles are much safer to drive than hybrid cars.
75.We can infer from the passage that          in the future.
A. the traditional cars will gradually disappear
B. the hybrid vehicles will gradually disappear
C. the cost of hybrid cars will be more reasonable
D. the hybrid technology will bring oil prices down

Celebrities (Famous people) have joined college students around China in the latest government activities to protect the environment.

Lots of famous people take part in the activities. Familiar faces including film star Jackie Chan and TV host Yang Lan from Hong Kong were at the Great Wall. Over 200 college students joined them. They’re all volunteers for a government sponsored (主辦) environmental protection program.
A latest government report warns, China’s fragile (易脆的) environment and limited resources could hardly support economic development in the next five to ten years. However, Chinese citizens have long neglected environmental protection. Organizers hope these young people will influence people around.
Pan Yue, vice minister of State Environmental Protection Administration,said, “The government can only make policy. But environmental protection also depends on public participation (參與). Public figures, ordinary people and the government should all join hands, thus we can make a beautiful and friendly environment.”

I've cheated in school when I thought that I could get away with it. I'm not proud of it and I don't usually feel very good about myself afterward, but sometimes it's the only way possible to survive in a pressure cooker. My parents are really set on my getting good grades. They study my report card the same way they examine the newspaper's stock market page. And they make me feel that I've got to live up to their expectations.
But often it's like each teacher acts as if his is the only subject we have. They think nothing of piling on our homework or giving surprise quizzes. Sometimes we have to take two or three tests in different subjects on the same day. I'd like to see a lot of adults I know preparing for that.
When the pressure becomes too high, some kids may resort to(訴諸于) cheating. If you have three or four subjects to study for, you're not going to be able to devote enough time to each subject in order to be well prepared for each class. Besides, it may be the only way left to live up to your parents' expectations and compete with the top students in the class.
Everybody knows that if you cheat, it's important not to get caught. Few things can cause more of chaos. Once, my elder brother got caught cheating on a math final. My parents acted as though he'd committed a federal crime. The assistant principal called them to school, but although the incident caused several conferences, I don't think that anybody ever really understood what my brother was going through. We're just supposed to perform outstandingly as well as always act honestly, but how many adults can actually live up to the standards they set for us?
My father has gotten countless traffic tickets for parking in no parking zones or for not coming to a full stop at stop signs.And you're always hearing about people who don't file their income tax honestly.How about all the corruption in government?Successful adults often accept dishonesty in order to achieve their business goals.Are kids the only ones who are supposed to be perfect?
Most of my friends have cheated on tests in school at one time or another. The kids who never cheat are usually either afraid of getting caught or just don't know how to do it safely. Nobody wants to cheat. But if it's a choice of being honest or of getting a grade, most kids will try for the A. That may sound wrong, but we didn't make the rules, we're just trying to get by.
77. What is the best title of this passage?
A. No one wants to cheat      B. Everyone likes to cheat                  
C. No one can survive a cheat      D. Everyone can fight a cheat
78. The author owes children's cheat to the following EXCEPT________.
A. parents   B. teachers         C. children         D. examinations
79. In the fifth paragraph, the author mainly wants to say________.
A. his father always cheats in his life
B. kids are always supposed to be perfect
C. all the adults can not live up to the standards they set for children
D. children shouldn't learn from successful adults
80. Which of the following is true according to this passage?
A. The author thinks it is children's right to cheat in school.
B. Most of the author's friends like cheating on tests in school.
C. The author shows a positive attitude towards a surprise quiz in school.
D. The author thinks it wrong to cheat in school.
