     閱讀下面的短文并回答問題。(請注意問題后的詞數(shù)要求)。
〔1〕"Everything happens for the best," my mother said whenever I faced disappointment.
" If you carry on, one day something good will happen. And you'll realize that it wouldn't have happened if not for that previous disappointment."
〔2〕Mother was right, as I discovered after graduating from college in 1932. I had decided to try for a
job in radio, then work my way up to a sports announcer. I went to Chicago and knocked on the door of every station-and got turned down every time.
〔3〕In one studio, a kind lady told me that big stations couldn't risk hiring an inexperienced person. "Go out in the sticks and find a small station that'll give you a chance," she said.
〔4〕I returned home to Dixon, Illinois. While there were no radio-announcing jobs in Dixon, my father
said Montgomery Ward had opened a store and wanted a local athlete to manage its sports department.
Since Dixon was where I had played high school football, I applied. The job sounded just right for me.
But ______           _ .
〔5〕My disappointment must have shown. "Everything happens for the best," Mom reminded me. Dad
offered me the car to job hunt. I tried WOC Radio in Davenport, Iowa. The program director, a
wonderful Scotsman named Peter MacArthur, told me they had already hired an announcer.
〔6〕As I left his office, my frustration boiled over. I asked aloud, "How can a fellow get to be a sports
announcer if he can't get a job in a radio station?"
〔7〕I was waiting for the elevator when I heard MacArthur calling, "What was that you said about
sports? Do you know anything about football?" Then he stood me before a microphone and asked me to
broadcast an imaginary game. I got the job!
〔8〕On my way home, as I have many times since, I thought of my mother's words: …
1. How did the writer discover that his mother was right? ( no more than 10 words )

2. Fill in the blank with proper words in paragraph 4 to complete the sentence.

4. Translate the underlined sentence in paragraph 1 into Chinese.
______________________________________________________________________________
5. What can you learn from the passage? (no more than 30 words)
______________________________________________________________________________
1. Through his own experience in finding a job.
2. I wasn't hired./ I was turned down./ I didn't get it./ they didn't offer it to me.  
3. Because both his parents comforted and encouraged him: "Everything happens for
    the best," Mom reminded me. Dad offered me the car to job hunt.
4. 如果你堅(jiān)持下去,總有一天會成功.
5. 略(只要表達(dá)正確,觀點(diǎn)積極,即可得滿分)

第II卷( 共45分)

一、閱讀表達(dá)(共5小題;每小題1分,滿分5分)

閱讀下面的短文和問題,根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容,在相應(yīng)題號后的橫線上寫下相關(guān)信息(不多于五個(gè)單詞),完成對該問題的回答。答語要結(jié)構(gòu)正確,書寫工整,字跡清楚。

London’s Chinese community (社區(qū)) dates back to the 18th century, when a small number of Chinese sailors moved to the city to work in Limhouse, east London. As time went on, other Chinese people came to this area and Limhouse began to be known as “Chinatown”. However, London’s Chinese community remained very small for many years: at the start of the 20th century, there were just 545 Chinese people in Britain.

After the Second World War, many farmers in Hong Kong lost their jobs and came to London. As Limhouse had been almost destroyed during the war, they settled in a different area—a part of central London near Leicester Square. This area is now what Londoners call Chinatown.

At first, the new immigrants (移民) found it difficult to get jobs. In the 1950s, however, a small Chinese restaurant opened in London. Many British people visited it and said that Chinese food was wonderful! Suddenly, Chinese restaurants and take-aways started opening in every part of the city. Instead of too little work, the new Chinese immigrants now found that they had too much! They worked as cooks, managers or waiters. Most of them enjoyed their lives and arranged their friends and relatives to join them from overseas.

As time went by, London’s Chinese community became more and more successful. The sons and daughters of the original restaurant workers studied and worked very hard. And most went on to get highly paid jobs. Many Chinese families left Chinatown and moved to the more expensive outskirts. Chinatown, however, is still as lively as ever.
