It is seeing the baby birds（44）D，however，that is I he best thing of all．In less  than two months they go from growing in little（45）Cto flying out of their nest to soar （翱翔）in the skies along with their（46）B．
My daughter's house guests have（47）Cme a few things too．I have learned from them about（48）Awork．I have learned about devotion and（49）B．I have learned  about（50）Dand life．Most of all，though．I have learned that while it is（51）Aand warm in the nest，it is better to（52）C．

3．Whether in the workplace or the football field，effective teamwork can produce amazing results，However，（21）working（work） successfully as a team is not as easy as it may seem．Effective teamwork certainly does not just happen automatically，it takes a great deal of hard work and compromise．There are a number of factors （22）which/thatmust be in place to make a good team．
Effective leadership is one of the most important factors of good teamwork．The team's leader should possess the skills （23）to create（create） a positive working environment and motivate and inspire the team members to talk a positive approach to work and be committed．An effective team leader will promote a high level of spirit and make them feel （24）valued（value）
Communication is a vital factor of all interpersonal relationship and especially that of a team．Team members must be able to express their feelings，share ideas and see each other's opinions．
Conflicts will arise （25）howeverwell a team functions together．The best way to deal with conflicts is to have some organized methods of handling conflicts．Team members should be able to voice their concerns（26）withoutfear of offending others．Instead of avoiding conflict issues，a practical approach that（27）settles（settle） them quickly is much better．It is often advised that the team leader sit with the conflicting parties and help work out their differences without taking sides and try to remain objective if possible．
The team leader （28）must/shouldset a good example to create good teamwork．In order to keep team members positive and motivated，the team leader （29）himself/herselfneeds to show these qualities．The team turns to the leader for support and guidance．So any negative words or behaviors on the leader's part can be disastrous．
Regardless of（30）whattype of work you are in，knowing how to effectively work on and with a team is going to be extremely important to your success and that of your team．

"Any apple today？"，Effie asked cheerfully at my window，．I followed her to her truck and bought a kilo．On credit，of course．Cash was the one thing in the world I lacked just them．
All pretense （借口）of payment was drooped when our funds，food and fuel decreased to alarming lows．Effie came often，always bringing some gift：a jar of  peaches or some firewood．There were other generosities．A
Effie was not a rich woman．Her income，derived from investment she had made while running an interior decorating shop，had never exceeded﹩200 a month，which she supplemented by selling her apples．But she always managed to help someone poorer．
Years passed before I was able to return the money Effie had given me from time to time．She was ill now and had aged rapidly in the last year．"Here，darling，"I said，"is what I owe you，"F"Give it back as I gave it to you-----a little at a time．""I think she believed there was magic in the slow discharge of a love debt．
The simple fact is that I never repaid the whole amount to Effie，for she died a few weeks later．By now，the few dollars Effie gave me have been multiplied many times．But a curious thing began to happen．CAt that time，it seemed that my debt would forever go unsettled．So the account can never be marked closed，for Effie's love will go on in hearts that have never known her．

In the much-discussed movie Lost and Love，Jing（40）Ba young man，Zeng Shuai，who is searching for his biological parents．Variety，a U-based entertainment（41）B，commented Jing is a"promising mainland actor"．

"Many believe only playing leading roles can prove an actor's（45）Dbut I don't agree，"
he said．"I（46）Drefuse to play supporting roles．What I care most about is whether it's a（n）

8．I will share one experience with you．With the college Entrance Examination draw near，I was filled with great anxiety．However，I couldn't be absorbed in study，resulting from my failing in the examination．I got very discouraging．Just then，my teacher，Miss Zhang，approached me and said，"In life we all have moments when we can't achieve what we want to．It is natural．Don't allow those moments to weaken you，and turn them into motivation to inspire yourself．"Her words were reminder that provided me with constant encouragement to smile at life．Consequently，I gained that I deserved．
So it is an optimistic attitude which matters most of all．It gives you the confidence to deal with difficulties and to achieve what you want in your life．

7．假如你是李華，準備參加你市舉辦的英語演講大賽，已寫好演講稿．請給你校的外教Miss Dyson寫一封信，請她幫你改稿．
要求：詞數(shù)100左右．
Dear Miss Dyson，
I am writing to ask for some help．I am going to take part in an English speech contest to be held in my city next month．I have finished writing my speech，but I am not very confident about，it．Are all the sentences in my speech grammatically correct？Are my ideas worth listening to？Will the judges and listeners laugh at me because of my poor language？Therefore，I wonder if you could spare some time to polish it，for which I would be truly grateful．
Looking forward to your reply．
Yours，
Li Hua．

6．How to choose a good bookYou love reading，and you're dying to get your hands on a book．But you've read all your books four times，and are tired of reading the same ones．You're planning to go to the library，but don't know what kind of books to get．（36）C
Make a list answering these questions．
What genre （類型 ） of books do you like？Sci-fi，adventure，mystery，non-fiction，fiction or realistic fiction？
What authors do you like？Research books by the authors you've enjoyed in the past．（37）EAnd by searching by authors，you can get more of the same types of books that the authors wrote．
Is there a type of book，or a specific book you would like to try？If there is，search the book and read its summary．This will help you decide if the book is right for you．
（38）BYou can ask your older sibling （兄弟姐妹），your parents，your best friend，or even your English teacher．Friends or family with whom you have things in common can often make excellent book recommendations （推薦）．Local，small bookstores often have wonderful recommendations，and when they get to know you，it's even better!
Read book reviews in newspapers and magazines．Read the bestseller lists published in most newspapers or weekly magazines．（39）D
Join a book club．Being a book club member is often a way to experience new books you might never have had the motivation to read otherwise．Joining a book club helps you know who else likes the same books as you．（40）G

A．Search your house．
B．Ask someone to suggest a good book．
C．With the right knowledge，it's easy to choose a good book．
D．Find out which new books are making headlines，and why．
E．Chances are they'll have other publications that you'll also enjoy．
F．You can find some books that you can read and won't cost you any money．
G．Also you can read books that others have read and discuss them with other readers．

5．I am a fulltime student at College of the Redwoods．During this period it is hard to find the time to do anything other than work．But after much thought I decided to spend my extra time volunteering at the Sequoia Humane Society．
The main reason for people volunteering at animal shelter is that it helps the animals．It also helps the workers，because they have so many things to do----such as feeding and cleaning----and they just don't have enough time to give each animal proper attention and exercises．Volunteers help out by taking dogs on long walks so they can get exercised．
Walking and playing with the animals helps them become better suited for adoption，and increase the chance that they will find a home and live happily with their owners．
As a person who has pets all of my life，I know the joy and happiness that a pet brings to a person，a family，and the world in general．Even on the most stressful day，I know when I get home my dog will be sitting there ready to play with me and take my mind off from whatever causes the stress I am experiencing．Volunteering at animal shelters gives someone the opportunity to experience what I have all the time----a warm，loving animal that just wants to have fun and make you happy．So make the time to make an animal happy．Start volunteering today!

25．Which of the following about the author is true？C
A．He works in a college．
B．He is a fulltime volunteer．
C．He is an undergraduate．

A．draw people's attention
B．gain people's pity
C．get special care
D．get enough exercise
27．The underlined word"adoption"in Para.3probably means"C"．
A．walking and playing with these animals
B．feeding and cleaning these animals
C．giving these animals a home with a family

4．假定你是李華，近日你校將舉辦英語演講活動，題目"The person I admire the most"，請你用英語寫一篇演講稿．

Yuan Longping，an agricultural pioneer of China．It is known that there exists hunger in many countries．To help more people to get enough food，Yuan Longping has devoted himself to improving the output of hybrid rice．（高分句型一） Thanks to his research，the output has been doubled．More importantly，Yuan Longping is willing to share his achievement with others，which contributes to ridding the world of hunger．（高分句型二）
As for me，Yuan Longping is the greatest person in the world．It is his devotion that makes him successful and his devotion has inspired me a lot．（高分句型三）Actually，I have some difficulty in learning English．However，where there is devotion，there is a way．I really believe that my devotion can make me expert in English．
Thank you for your listening．that's all．
