第一节：阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项 (A. B. C 和D)中.选出最佳选项.
A
When it comes to friends, I desire those who will share my happiness, who possess wings of their own and who will fly with me. I seek friends whose qualities illuminate（照亮） me and train me up for love. It is for these people that I reserve the glowing hours, too good not to share. When I was in the eighth grade, I had a friend. We were shy and \serious\classmates to learn acceptable social behaviors. We said little at school. but she would come to my house and we would sit down with pencils and paper.
And one of us would say: \start with a train whistle today.\We would sit quietly together and write separate poems or stories that grew out of a train whistle. Then we would read them aloud. At the end of that school year, we, too, were changing into social creatures and the stories and poems stopped. When I lived for a time in London, I had a friend. He was in despair(失望） and I was in despair.But our friendship was based on the idea in each of us that we would be sorry later if we did not explore this great city because we had felt bad at the time. We met every Sunday for five weeks and found many excellent things. We walked until our despairs disappeared and then we parted. We gave London to each other.
For almost four years I have had remarkable friend whose imagination illuminates mine. We write long letters in which we often discover our strangest selves. pach of us appears, sometimes in a funny way. in the other's dreams. She and I agree that,at certain times, we seem to be parts of the same mind. In my most interesting moments. I often think: \I must tell.. ..\
It is such comforting companions I wish to keep. One bright hour with their kind is worth more to me than the lifetime services of a psychologist, who will only fill up the healing（愈合的） silence necessary to those darkest moments in which I would rather be my own best friend.
41.In Paragraph 3, \ A. our exploration of London was a memorable gifi to both of us B. we were unwilling to tear ourselves away from London C. our unpleasant feeling about London disappeared D. we parted with each other in London
42.According to Paragraph 4, the author and her friend_______
A. call each other regularly B. have similar personalities C. enjoy writing to each other D. Iove to discover new things 43.In the darkest moments, the author would prefer to_______ A. seek professional help B. be left alone C. stay with her best friend D. break the silence 44.What is the best title for the passage?
A. Unforgettable Experiences B. Remarkable Imagination C. Lifelong Friendship D. Noble Companions B
How to improve our life? Many people think that they have to accept whatever life throws at them. They'11 say,\my destiny（命运）. I cannot change it.\ Of course not! You don't have to suffer needlessly. Your life depends on you, not on any other extemal（外部的） factor.
I know a woman who says she just accepts what life gives her because she has done everything she can to improve it. Guess what her lifestyle
is. She wakes up in the morning, goes to work comes back home. relaxes. chats with people, watches TV, and then goes to sleep. Next day, the same routine cycle follows.
Huh! Is this what she calls \She believes she has tried her best and just accepts for her heart that this is the life that has been intended for her. and that her luck can only change if God wills it. She hasn't realized that we have to do our share of making the effort to live the life of our dreams.
Remember that you harvest what you sow. You have to get off the sofa, get your eyes off the TV screen, get your hands off the phone (unless it contributes to your success), and get your mind and body to work! Don't expect your luck to change, unless you do something about it. If something goes wrong, don't just regard it as a temporary setback; instead, learn your lesson, make the most of the situation, and do something to solve the problem. It's not enough to think positively; you also have to act positively.
If someone's life is in trouble, do you just hope and pray that things will turn out fine?Of course not! You get to do anything you can to save the person. So it is with your own life. It is not enough to hope for the best, but you have to do your best. In other words, don't just stand (or sit )there, do something to improve your life .
45. According to the woman mentioned in Para3, her life ________ A. doesn't need improving B. couldn’t be improved
C. will be better some day D. will be worse in the future 46. What does the author think of the woman's life?
A. Passive. B. Positive. C. Colorful. D. Boring. 47. Which of the following statements is the author's opinion? A. Your temporary problem is not discouraging. B. Your luck can be changed by your efforts.
C. You can only achieve success when God wills it .
D. You should treat yourself in the way you treat friends. 48. In Para.5, the author emphasized the importance of_______
A. hope for the best B. intention to succeed C. positive thinking D. positive action C
Throughout the world, clothing has many uses. It is used to provide protection from the elements. It is also worn to prevent others from seeing specific parts of one's body. However, the parts of the body that must be covered vary widely throughout the world. Some clothing is worn to provide supernatural protection. Wearing a lucky shirt to take an exam is calling for supernatural assistance.
People in all cultures use clothing and other forms of bodily decoration to communicate status,intentions and other messages. In North America, we dress differently for business and various leisure activities.
