One by one, graffiti-covered walls are being changed into outdoor art. So far, more than 1,800 murals（壁画）have been painted. Philadelphia now has more murals than any other American city.The walls that were once ugly with graffiti（涂鸦）are now covered with beautiful pictures of historical heroes and modern art, thanks to the Mural Arts Program (MAP). Its work makes schoolsand public places attractive, and its citizens very proud. The program began as part ofPhiladelphia's Anti-Graffiti Network. Jane Golden is the MAP's artisticdirector. "When people askme what our program is about," she says, "I answer them with one word: hope." Each year, theMAP offers youth art programs and workshops. Some one-time graffiti writers even help paintMAP murals.The MAP's work, says Golden, is all about developing a sense of community（社区）．When a neighborhood requests a mural, the MAP works with the people there to develop a message. Somemessages have been "Safe Streets," "Love and Care," and "Peace Walk."The MAP receives up to 50 requests for murals each week. Last year, the workers painted 140murals."The making of a mural enters people's collective memory as an extraordinary, pleasantmoment in neighborhood history" says Golden, who began as a muralist in Los Angeles.41．What can be the best title for the text?A. Love, from Graffiti Writers to MuralistsB. MAP, a New Company in PhiladelphiaC. Jane, an Excellent Mural ArtistD. Hope, One Wall at a Time42. What is the Mural Arts Program in Philadelphia aimed at?A. Helping the young find jobs.B. Protecting the neighborhood.C. Fighting against graffiti.D. Attracting more visitors.43．How does the MAP decide on the message for a mural?A. By having discussions with people in the community.B．By seeking advice from the city government.C．By learning from the young graffiti writers.D. By studying the history of the city.44. Which of the following words best describes the work of the MAP?A. Difficult. B．Dangerous. C. Experimental．D. Successful.BFor those who study the development of intelligence（智力）in the animal world, self-awareness is an important measurement. An animal that is aware（意识）of itself has a high level of intelligence.Awareness can be tested by studying whether the animal recognizes itself in the mirror, that is, its own reflected image（反射出地影像）.Many animals fail this exercise bitterly, paying evry little attention to the reflected image. Only humans, and some intelligent animals like apes and dolphins, have shown to recognize that the image in the mirror is of themselves.Now another animal has joined the club. In the Proceedings of the NationalAcademy of Sciences, researchers report that an Asian elephant has passed the mirror self-reflection test.“We thought that elephants were the next important animal,” said Dinana Reiss of the Wildlife Conservation Society, an author of the study with Joshua M.Plotnik and Fans B.M. de Waal of EmoryUniversity. With their large brains, Reiss said, elephants “seemed like cousins to apes and dolphins.”The researchers tested Happy, Maxine and Patty, three elephants at the Bronx Zoo.They put an 8-foot-square mirror on a wall of the animals’play area (out of the sight of zoo visitors) and recorded what happened with cameras, including one built in the mirror.The elephants used their long noses to find what was behind it, and to examine parts of their bodies.Of the three, Happy then passed the test, in which a clear mark was painted on one side of her face. She could tell the mark was there by looking in the mirror, and she used the mirror to touch the mark with her long nose.Diana Reiss said, "We knew elephants were intelligent, but now we can talk about their intelligence in a better way."45. What can mirror tests tell us about animals?A. Whether they have large brains.B．Whether they have self-awareness.C. Whether they enjoy outdoor exercises.D. Whether they enjoy playing with mirrors.46. Why does the author mention apes and dolphins in the text?A. They are most familiar to readers.B. They are big favorites with zoo visitors.C. They are included in the study by Reiss.D. They are already known to be intelligent.47. What made Happy different from Maxine and Patty?A. She used her nose to search behind the mirror.B. She recognized her own image in the mirror.C. She painted a mark on her own face.D. She found the hidden camera.CStudent Membership--Cambridge Arts CinemaCambridge Arts Cinema is one of the art houses in Britain and home of the internationallycelebrated Cambridge Film Festival. Since 1947 generations of students have discovered the wealth of world cinema. Now you too can make most of it and save money.48. Which of the following is the most famous event held at Cambridge Arts Cinema?A. The Cambridge Film Festival.B. Meetings with filmmakers.C. The preview screening.D. Monthly premieres.49. If you're a member of Cambridge Arts Cinema, you will enjoy free＿A. Darkroom Gallery showsB. mailed programmesC. special film eventsD. film shows50. How long will the membership for Cambridge Arts Cinema last?A. Four months.B. Eight months.C. Nine months.D. One year.51．For what purpose is the text written?A. Offering students cheaper tickets．B. Announcing the opening of a premiere.C. Telling the public of the cinema's address.D. Increasing the cinema's membership.DThe way we do things round hereSome years ago, I was hired by an American bank. I received a letter from the head of thePersonnel Department that started, "Dear John, I am quite pleased that you have decided to joinus." That "quite" saddened me. I thought he was saying "we're kind of pleased you decided to joinus although I wish we had hired someone else." Then I discovered that in American English "quite"sometimes means "very", while in British English it means "fairly".So the first lesson about working in other countries is to learn the language and by that I don'tjust mean the words people speak. It is body language, dress, manners, ideas and so on. The way people do things highlights many of the differences we see between cultures（文化）．Some of these differences may be only on the surface-dress, food and hours of work-while others may be deeper and take longer to deal with. Mostly, it is just a question of getting used to the differences and accepting them, like the climate（气候），while getting on with business.Some of the differences may be an improvement. People are more polite; the service is better;you ask for something to be done and it happens without having to ask again. However, other differences can be troubling, like punctuality（准时）．If you invite people to a party at 7 o'clock your guests will consider it polite to turn up exactly on time in Germany, five minutes early in theAmerican Midwest, an hour early in Japan, 15 minutes afterwards in the UK, up to an hourafterwards in Italy and sometime in the evening in Greece. I prefer not to use the word "late"because there is nothing wrong with the times people arrive. It is simply the accepted thing to do intheir own country.52. The author was unhappy as mentioned in Paragraph 1 because he thought______．A. the American bank didn't think much of himB. the American bank might hire another personC. it's difficult to get used to American cultureD. it's easy to misunderstand Americans53．The word "highlights" in Paragraph 2 probably means_____.A. encouragesB. helps to narrowC. increasesD. draws attention to54. According to the author, what should we do with most cultural differences?A. Ask the native people for help.B. Understand and accept them.C. Do things in our own way.D. Do in-depth research.55. When invited to a party the people who are usually punctual are______.A. ItaliansB. GermansC. GreeksD. the BritishE"I didn't hear them call my name," explained Shelley Hennig to Active Teens (AT) as she talkedabout that exciting moment on national television when she won the honor of Miss Teen USA 2004."Are you ready?" is what she heard. Then she said, "I shook my head no, and then they said‘yes’and it was announced again."It was four days after that life changing moment for the seventeen-year-old high school student from Destrehan, Louisiana----she was still on cloud nine．"I was so shocked! I never believed that it could actually really happen." Present in the audience（观众）that day were: her mother and father, older brother, her friends, and her dance teacher.Understanding why members of her family and her friends would be there, AT asked why herdance teacher had traveled so far to see her compete（比赛）．"She's always been my role model．I've danced with her since I was six. She's been through so many difficulties and came throughthem all. I've learned to get over bad life's experiences and learned how to move on because ofher."One of those bad life's experiences for Shelley happened three years ago when her brotherBrad was killed in a drunk driving accident. He was 18. She found writing helped her get throughthe rough days. She said, "I write a lot about my brother. I write a lot, a lot, a lot...”As Miss Louisiana Teen, she traveled around the state speaking to teens（青少年）about the dangers of drinking and driving. In her role as Miss Teen USA, Sheiley will continue to speak toyouth about safe driving, in addition to many other things to help the youth.When AT asked Miss Teen USA if she had any advice for our readers, she said, "Don't letanyone change you. Hang out with people that make you feel good about yourself. That way, it iseasy to be yourself."56.What do the words “on cloud nine” in Paragraph 2 probably mean?A. frightenedB. troubledC. very happyD. very angry57.Shelley takes her dance teachers as a role medel mainly because she is .A. determinedB. friendlyC. strictD. experienced58.How many children did the Hennigs have according to the text?A. 1.B. 2.C. 3.D. 4.59.What did Shelley often do after she became Miss Louisiana Teen?A. She visited drunken drivers.B. She gave dance performance.C. She made speeches on safe driving.D. She helped other teens with their studies.60.What suggestion does Shelley give to the teens?A. Be yourself with the support of friends.B．Meet friends whenever possible.C. Go easy on yourself and others.D. Have a good role model.第二节根据对话内容，从对话后地选项中选出能填入空白处地最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑.选项中有两项为多余选项.---Excuse me, have you been waiting long?----About ten minutes.---- 61------Not while I’ve been standing here.

His name was Mr. Basille. He wore a white cap and drove a white truck. As a 5 year-old boy, I couldn’t take my eyes off the coin changer fixed to his belt. He noticed this one day during a delivery and gave me a quarter out of his coin changer.Of course, he delivered more than milk. There was cheese, eggs and so on. If we needed to change our order, my mother would pen a note- “Please add a bottle ofbuttermilk next deliver y”- and place it in the box along with the empty bottles. And then, the buttermilk would magically (魔术般) appear.All of this was about more than convenience. There existed a close relationship between families and their milkmen. Mr. Basille even had a key to our house, for those times when it was so cold outside that we put the box indoors, so that the milk wouldn’t freeze. And I remember Mr. Basille from time to time taking a break at our kitchen table, having a cup of tea and telling stories about his delivery.There is sadly no home milk delivery today. Big companies allowed the production of cheaper milk, thus making it difficult for milkmen to compete (竞争). Besides, milk is for sale everywhere, and it may just not have been practical to have a delivery service.Recently, an old milk box in the countryside I saw brought back my childhood memories. Took it home and planted it on the back porch (门廊). Every so often my son’s son will ask what it is. So I start telling stories of my childhood, and of milkman who brought us friendship along with his milk.56. Mr. Basille gave the boy a quarter out his coin changer .A. to show his magical powerB. to pay for the deliveryC. to satisfy his curiosityD. to please his mother57. What can be inferred from the fact that the milkman had the key to the boy’s house?A. He wanted to have tea there.B. He was a respectable person.C. He was treated as a family member.D. He was fully trusted by the family.58. Why dose home milk delivery no longer exist?A. Nobody wants to be a milkman now.B. It has been driven out of the market.C. Its service is getting poor.D. It is forbidden by law.59. Why did the author bring back home an old milk box?A. He missed the good old days.B. He wanted to tell interesting stories.C. He needed it for his milk bottles.D. He planted flowers in it.BThe word advertising refers to any kind of public announcement that brings products and services to the attention of people. Throughout history, advertising has been all effective way to promote (促进) the trading and selling of goods. In the Middle Ages, merchants employed “town criers”to read public messages aloud to promote their goods. When printing was invented in the fifteenth century, pages of advertisements (ads) could be printed easily and were either hung in public places or put in books.By the end of the seventeenth century, when newspapers were beginning to be read by more people, printed materials became all important way to promote products and services. The London Gazette was the first newspaper to set aside a place just for advertising. This was so successful that by the end of the century several companies started businesses for the purpose of making newspaper ads for merchants.Advertising spread quickly throughout the eighteenth century. Ad writers were starting to pay more attention to the design of the ad text. Everything, from clothes to drinks, was promoted with clever methods such as repetition of the firm’s name orproduct, words organized in eye-catching patterns, the use of pretty pictures and expressions easy to remember.Near the end of the nineteenth century, companies that were devoted to the production of ads came to be known as “advertising agencies (广告商).” The agencies developed new ways to get people to think of themselves as members of a group. Throughout the twentieth century, advertising agencies promoted consumerism (消费主义) as a way of life, spreading the belief that people could be happy only if they bought the “right” products.60. What was advertising like in the Middle Ages?A. Merchants were employed to promote products.B. Ad messages were shouted out in public places.C. Product information was included in books.D. Ad signs were put up in towns.61. What does the word “This” in Paragraph 2 refer to?A. Advertising in newspapers.B. Including pictures in ads.C. Selling goods in markets.D. Working with ad agencies.62. The l8th century advertising was special in its _____.A. growing spendingB. printing materialsC. advertising companiesD. attractive designs63 Which of the following might be the best title for the text?A. The Story of AdvertisingB. The Value of Advertising DesignsC. The Role of Newspaper AdvertisingD. The Development of Printing for AdvertisingCWhile small may be beautiful, tall is just plain uncomfortable it seems, particularly when it comes to staying in hotels and eating in restaurants.The Tall Persons Club Great Britain (TPCGB), which was formed six months ago to campaign (发起运动) for the needs of the tall, has turned its attention to hotels and restaurants. Beds that are too small, shower heads that are too low, and restaurant tables with hardly any leg-room all make life difficult for those of above average height, it says.But it is not just the extra-tall whose needs are not being met. The average height of the population has been increasing yet the standard size of beds, doorways, and chairs has remained unchanged.“The bedding industry says a bed should be six inches larg er than the person using it, so even a king-size bed at 6′6″ (6 feet and 6 inches) is falling short for 25% of men, while the standard 6′3″ bed caters for (满足需要) less than half of the male (男性) population.” Said TPCGB president Phil Heinricy,“Seven-foot beds would work fine.” Similarly, restaurant tables can cause no end of problems. Small tables, which mean the long-legged have to sit a foot or so away from them, are enough to make tall customers go elsewhere.Some have already taken note, however. At Queens Moat Houses′Caledonian Hotel in Edinburgh, 6′6″ beds are now put in as standard after requests for longer beds from taller visitors, particularly Americans.64. What is the purpose of the TPCGB campaign?A. To provide better services.B. To rebuild hotels and restaurants.C. To draw public attention to the needs of the tall.D. To attract more people to become its members.65. Which of the following might be a bed of proper length according to PhilHeinricy?A. 7′2″.B. 7′ .C. 6′6″ .D. 6′3″.66. What may happen to restaurants with small tables?A. They may lose some customers.B. They may start businesses elsewhere.C. They have to find easy chairs to match the tables.D. They have to provide enough space for the long-legged.67. What change has already been made in a hotel in Edinburgh?A. Tall people pay more for larger beds.B. 6′6″beds have taken the place of 6′3″ beds.C. Special rooms are kept for Americans.D. Guest rooms are standardized.DCassandra Feeley finds it hard to manage on her husband’s income. So this year she did something more than a hobby (业余爱好): She planted vegetables in her yard. For her first garden, Ms Feeley has put in 15 tomato plants, and five rows of a variety of vegetables. The family’s old farm house has become a chicken house, its residents arriving next month. Last year, Ms. Rita Gartin kept a small garden. This year she has made it much larger because, she said,“ The cost of everything is going up and I was looking to lose a few pounds, too; so it’s a win-win situation all around.”They are among the growing number of Americans who, driven by higher living costs and a falling economy(经济), have taken up vegetable gardening for the first time. Others have increased the size of their existing gardens. Seed companies and garden shops say that not since the 1970s has there been such an increase in interest in growing food at home. Now many gardens across the country have been sold out for several months. In Austin, Tex., some of the gardens have a three-year waiting list.George C. Ball Jr., owner of a company, said sales of vegetable seeds and plants are up by 40% over last year, double the average growth of the last five years. Mr. Ball argues that some of the reasons have been building for the last few years. The big one is striking rise in the cost of food like bread and milk, together with the increases in the price of fruit and vegetables. Food prices have increase because of higher oil prices. People are now driving less, taking fewer vacations, so there more time to garden.68. What does the word “residents” in Paragraph 1 probably refer to?A. chickensB. tomatoesC. gardensD. people69. By saying “a win-win situation all around”，Ms. Gartin means that ______.A. she is happier and her garden biggerB. she may spend less and lose weightC. she is selling more and buying lessD. she has grown more varieties of vegetables70. Why is vegetable gardening becoming increasingly popular?A. More Americans are dong it for fun.B. The price of oil is lower than before.C. There’s a growing need for fruits.D. The cost of living is on the rise.71. Which of the following might be the best title for the text?A. Family Food PlanningB. Banking on GardeningC. A Belt-tightening MoveD.

2011年普通高等学校招生全国统一考试（英语广东卷阅读部分）Ⅱ. 阅读(共两节, 满分50分)第一节阅读理解(共20小题；每小题2分，满分40分)阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D项中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

AIn the animal kingdom, weakness can bring about aggression in other animal. This sometimes happens with humans also. But I have found that my weakness brings out the kindness in people. I see it every day when people hold doors for me, pour cream into my coffee, or help me to put on my coat. And I have discovered that it makes them happy.From my wheelchair experience, I see the best in people, bur sometimes I feel sad because those who appear independent miss the kindness I see daily. They don’t get to see this soft side of others often, we try bevery way possible to avoid showing our weakness, which includes a lot of pretending. But only when we stop pretending we’re brave or strong do we allow people to show the kindness that’s in them.Last month, when I was driving home on a busy highway, I began to feel unwell and drove more slowly than usual. People behind me began to get impatient and angry, with some speeding up alongside me, horning (按喇叭) or even shouting at me. At the moment I decided to do something I had never done in twenty fore years of driving. I put on the car flashlights and drove on at a really low speed.No more angry shouts and no more horns!When I put on my flashlights, I was saying to other drivers, “I have a problem here. I am weak and doing the best I can.” And everyone understoof. Several times, I saw drivers who wanted to pass. They couldn’t get around me because of the stream of passing traffic. But instead of getting impatient and angry, they waited, knowing the driver in front of them was in some way weak.Sometimes situations call for us to act strong and brave even when we don’t feel that way. But those are and far between. More often, it would be better if we don’t pretend we feel strong when we feel weak or pretend that we are brave when we are scared.26. the author has discovered that people will feel happy when ______.A. the offer their helpB. they receive others’ helpC. they feel others’ ki ndnessD. they show their weakness27. The author feels sad sometimes because ______.A. he has a soft heartB. he relies much on othersC. some people pretend to be kindD. some people fail to see the kindness in others28. What did the other drivers do when they saw the flashlights?A. They speed up to pass.B. They waited with patience.C. They tried their best to help.D. They put on their flashlights too.29. In this passage, the author advises us to ______.A. handle problems by ourselvesB. accept help from othersC. admit our weaknessD. show our bravery30. Which of the following is the best title for the passage?A. A Wheelchair Experience.B. Weakness and Kindness.C. Weakness and StrengthD. A Driving ExperienceBCan dogs and cats live in perfect harmony in the same home? People who are thinking about adopting a dog as a friend for their cats are worried that they will fight. A recent research has found a new recipe of success. According to the study, if the cat is adopted before the dog, and if they are introduced when still young (less than 6 months for cats, a year for dogs), it is highly probable that the two pets will get along swimmingly. Two-thirds of the homes interviewed reported a positive relationship between their cat and dog.However, it wasn’t all sweetness and light. There was a reported coldness between the cat and dog in 25% of the homes, while argression and fighting were observed in 10% of the homes. One reason for this is probably that some of their body signals were just opposite. For example, when a cat turns its head away it signals aggression, while a dog doing the same signals submission.In homes with cats and dogs living peacefully, researchers observed a surprising behaviour. They are learning how to talk each other’s language. It is a surprise that cats can learn how to talk ‘dog’, and dogs can learn how to talk ‘Cat’.What’s interesting is that both cats and dogs have appeared to de velop their intelligence. They can learn how to read each other’s body signals, suggesting that the two may have more in common than we previously suspected. Once familiar with each other’s presence and body language, cats and dogs can play together, greet each other nose to nose, and enjoy sleeping together on the sofa. They can easily share the same water bowl and in some cases groom (梳理) each other.The significance of the research on cats and dogs may go beyond pets ─ to people who don’t get along, including neighbors, colleagues at work, and even world superpowers. If cats and dogs can learn to get along, surely people have a good chance.31. The underlined word swimmingly in Paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to ______.A. earlyB. sweetlyC. quicklyD. smoothly32. Some cats and dogs may fight when ______.A. they are cold to each otherB. they look away from each otherC. they misunderstood each other’s signalsD. they are introduced at an early age33. What is found surprising about cats and dogs?A. They eat and sleep each other.B. They observe each other’s behaviors.C. They learn to speak each other’s language.D. They know something from each other’s voices.34. It is suggested in Paragraph 4 that cats and dogs ______.A. have common interestsB. are less different than was thoughtC. have a common body languageD. are less intelligent than was expected35. What can we human beings learn from cats and dogs?A. We should learn to live in harmony.B. We should know more about animals.C. We should live in peace with animals.D. We should learn more body languages.A year after graduation, I was offered a position teaching a writing class. Teaching was a profession I had never seriously considered, though several of my stories had been published. I accepted the job without hesitation, as it would allow me to wear a tie and go by the name of Mr. Davis. My father went by the same name, and I liked to imagine peo ple getting the two of us confused. “Wait a minute<” someone might say, “are you talking about Mr. Davis the retired man, or Mr. Davis the respectable scholar?”The position was offered at the last minute, and I was given two weeks to prepare, a period I spent searching for briefcase (公文包) and standing before my full-length mirror, repeating the words, “Hello, class. I’m Mr. Davis.” Sometimes I would give myself an aggressive voice. Sometimes I would sound experienced. But when the day eventually came, my nerves kicked in and the true Mr. Davis was there. I sounded not like a thoughtful professor, but rather a 12-year-old boy.I arrived in the classroom with paper cards designed in the shape of maple leaves. I had cut them myself out of orange construction paper. I saw nine students along a long table. I handed out the cards, and the students wrote down their names and fastened them to their breast pockets as I required.“All right then,” I said. “Okey, here we go.” Then I opened my briefcase and realized that I had never thought beyond this moment. I had been thinking that the students would be the first to talk, offering their thoughts and opinions on the events of the day. I had imagined that I would sit at the edge of the desk, overlooking a forests of hands. Every student would yell. “Calm down, you’ll all get your turn. One at a time, one at a time!”A terrible silence ruled the room, and seeing no other opinions, I inspected the students to pull out their notebooks and write a brief essay related to the theme of deep disappointment.36. The author took the job to teach writing because ______.A. he wanted to be expectedB. he had written some storiedC. he wanted to please his fatherD. he had dreamed of being a teacher37. What can we learn about the author from Paragraph 2?A. He would be aggressive in his first class.B. He was well-prepared for his first class.C. He got nervous upon the arrival of his first class.D. He waited long for the arrival of his first class.38. Before he started his class, the author asked the students to ______.A. write down their suggestions on the paper cardsB. cut maple leaves out of the construction paperC. cut some cards out of the construction paperD. write down their names on the paper cards39. What did the students do when the author started his class?A. They began to talk.B. They stayed silent.C. They raised their hands.D. They shouted to be heard.40. The author chose the composition topic probably because ______.A. he got disappointed with his first classB. he had prepared the topic before classC. he wanted to calm down the studentsD. he thought it was an easy topicIn a world with limited land, water and other natural resources (资源), the harm from the traditional business model is on the rise. Actually, the past decades has seen more and more forests disappearing and globe becoming increasingly warm. People now realize that this unhealthy situation must be changed, and that we must be able to develop in sustainable (可持续的) ways. That means growth with low carbon or development of sustainable products. In other words, we should keep the earth healthy while using its supply of natural resources.Today, sustainable development is a proper trend in many countries. According to a recent study, the global market for low-carbon energy will become three times bigger over the next decades. China, for example, has set its mind on leading that market, hoping to seize chances in the new round of the global energy revolution. It is now tryuing hard to make full use of wind and solar energy, and is spending a huge amount of money making electric cars and high-speed trains. In addition, we are also seeing great growth in the global markets for sustainable products such as palm oil (棕榈油)，which is produced without cutting down valuable rainforest. In recent years the markets for sustainable products have grown by more than 50%.Governments can fully develop the potential of these new markets. First, they can set high targets for reducing carbon emissions (排放) and targets for saving and reusing energy. Besides, stronger arrangement of public resources like forests can also help to speed up the development. Finally, governments can avoid the huge expenses that are taking us in the wrong direction, and redirecting some of those expenses can accelerate the change from traditional model to a sustainable one.The major challenge of this century is to find ways to meet the needs of growing population within the limits if this single planet. That is no small task, but it offers abundant new chances for sustainable product industries.41. The traditional business model is harmful because of all the following EXCEPT that ______.A. It makes the world warmerB. it consumes natural resourcesC. it brings severe damage to forestsD. it makes growth hard to continue42. What can we infer from Paragraph 2?A. China lacks wind and solar energy.B. China is the leader of the low-carbon market.C. High-speed trains are a low-carbon development.D. Palm oil is made at the cost of valuable forests.43. To full develop the low-carbon markets, government can ______.A. cut public expensesB. forbid carbon emissionC. develop public resourcesD. encourage energy conservation44. We can learn from the last paragraph that businesses have many chances to ______.A. develop sustainable productsB. explore new natural resourcesC. make full use of natural resourcesD. deal with the major challenge45. What is the main purpose og the passage?A. To introduce a new business model.B. To compare two business models.C. To predict a change of the global market.D.

This sometimes happens with humans also. But I have found that my weakness brings out the kindness in people. I see it every day when people hold doors for me, pour cream into my coffee, or help me to put on my coat. And I have discovered that it makes them happy.From my wheelchair experience, I see the best in people, bur sometimes I feel sad because those who appear independent m iss the kindness I see daily. They don‟t get to see this soft side of others often, we try every way possible to avoid showing our weakness, which includes a lot of pretending. But only when we stop pretending we‟re brave or strong do we allow people to show the kindness that‟s in them.Last month, when I was driving home on a busy highway, I began to feel unwell and drove more slowly than usual. People behind me began to get impatient and angry, with some speeding up alongside me, horning (按喇叭) or even shouting at me. At the moment I decided to do something I had never done in twenty fore years of driving. I put on the car flashlights and drove on at a really low speed.No more angry shouts and no more horns!When I put on my flashlights, I was saying to ot her drivers, “I have a problem here. I am weak and doing the best I can.” And everyone understoo d. Several times, I saw drivers who wanted to pass. They couldn‟t get around me because of the stream of passing traffic. But instead of getting impatient and angry, they waited, knowing the driver in front of them was in some way weak.Sometimes situations call for us to act strong and brave even when we don‟t feel that way. But those are and far between. More often, it would be better if we don‟t pretend we feel strong when we feel weak or pretend that we are brave when we are scared.26. the author h（）as discovered that people will feel happy when ______.A. the offer their helpB. they receive others‟ helpC. they feel others‟ kindnessD. they show their weakness27. The author feels sad sometimes because ______.A. he has a soft heartB. he relies much on othersC. some people pretend to be kindD. some people fail to see the kindness in others28. What did the other drivers do when they saw the flashlights?A. They speed up to pass.B. They waited with patience.C. They tried their best to help.D. They put on their flashlights too.29. In this passage, the author advises us to ______.A. handle problems by ourselvesB. accept help from othersC. admit our weaknessD. show our bravery30. Which of the following is the best title for the passage?A. A Wheelchair Experience.B. Weakness and Kindness.C. Weakness and StrengthD. A Driving ExperienceBCan dogs and cats live in perfect harmony in the same home? People who are thinking about adopting a dog as a friend for their cats are worried that they will fight.A recent research has found a new recipe of success. According to the study, if the cat is adopted before the dog, and if they are introduced when still young (less than 6 months for cats, a year for dogs), it is highly probable that the two pets will get along swimmingly. Two-thirds of the homes interviewed reported a positive relationshipbetween their cat and dog.However, it wasn‟t all sweetness and light. There was a reported col dness between the cat and dog in 25% of the homes, while aggression and fighting were observed in 10% of the homes. One reason for this is probably that some of their body signals were just opposite. For example, when a cat turns its head away it signals aggression, while a dog doing the same signals submission.In homes with cats and dogs living peacefully, researchers observed a surprising behaviour. They are learning how to talk each other‟s language. It is a surprise that cats can learn how to talk …dog‟, and dogs can learn how to talk …Cat‟.What‟s interesting is that both cats and dogs have appeared to develop their intelligence. They can learn how to read each other‟s body signals, suggesting that the two may have more in common than we previously suspected. Once familiar with each other‟s presence and body language, cats and dogs can play together, greet each other nose to nose, and enjoy sleeping together on the sofa. They can easily share the same water bowl and in some cases groom (梳理) each other.The significance of the research on cats and dogs may go beyond pets ─ to people who don‟t get along, including neighbors, colleagues at work, and even world superpowers. If cats and dogs can learn to get along, surely people have a good chance.31. The underlined word swimmingly in Paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to ______.A. earlyB. sweetlyC. quicklyD. smoothly32. Some cats and dogs may fight when ______.A. they are cold to each otherB. they look away from each otherC. they misunderstood each other‟s signalsD. they are introduced at an early age33. What is found surprising about cats and dogs?A. They eat and sleep each other.B. They observe each other‟s behaviors.C. They learn to speak each other‟s language.D. They know something from each other‟s voices.34. It is suggested in Paragraph 4 that cats and dogs ______.A. have common interestsB. are less different than was thoughtC. have a common body languageD. are less intelligent than was expected35. What can we human beings learn from cats and dogs?A. We should learn to live in harmony.B. We should know more about animals.C. We should live in peace with animals.D. We should learn more body languages.CA year after graduation, I was offered a position teaching a writing class. Teaching was a profession I had never seriously considered, though several of my stories had been published. I accepted the job without hesitation, as it would allow me to wear a tie and go by the name of Mr. Davis. My father went by the same name, and I liked to imagine people getting the two of us confused. “Wait a minute<” someone might say, “are you talking about Mr. Davis the retired man, or Mr. Davis the respectable scholar?”The position was offered at the last minute, and I was given two weeks to prepare, a period I spent searching for briefcase (公文包) and standing before my full-length mirror, repeating the words, “Hello, class. I‟m Mr. Davis.” Sometimes I would give myself an aggressive voice. Sometimes I would sound experienced. But when the day eventually came, my nerves kicked in and the true Mr. Davis was there.I sounded not like a thoughtful professor, but rather a 12-year-old boy.I arrived in the classroom with paper cards designed in the shape of maple leaves.I had cut them myself out of orange construction paper. I saw nine students along a long table. I handed out the cards, and the students wrote down their names and fastened them to their breast pockets as I required.“All right then,” I said. “Okey, here we go.” Then I opened my briefcase and realized that I had never thought beyond this moment. I had been thinking that the students would be the first to talk, offering their thoughts and opinions on the events of the day. I had imagined that I would sit at the edge of the desk, overlooking a forests of hands. Every student would yell. “Calm down, you‟ll all get your turn. One at a time, one at a time!”A terrible silence ruled the room, and seeing no other opinions, I inspected the students to pull out their notebooks and write a brief essay related to the theme of deep disappointment.36. The author took the job to teach writing because ______.A. he wanted to be expectedB. he had written some storiedC. he wanted to please his fatherD. he had dreamed of being a teacher37. What can we learn about the author from Paragraph 2?A. He would be aggressive in his first class.B. He was well-prepared for his first class.C. He got nervous upon the arrival of his first class.D. He waited long for the arrival of his first class.38. Before he started his class, the author asked the students to ______.A. write down their suggestions on the paper cardsB. cut maple leaves out of the construction paperC. cut some cards out of the construction paperD. write down their names on the paper cards39. What did the students do when the author started his class?A. They began to talk.B. They stayed silent.C. They raised their hands.D. They shouted to be heard.40. The author chose the composition topic probably because ______.A. he got disappointed with his first classB. he had prepared the topic before classC. he wanted to calm down the studentsD. he thought it was an easy topicDIn a world with limited land, water and other natural resources (资源), the harm from the traditional business model is on the rise. Actually, the past decades has seen more and more forests disappearing and globe becoming increasingly warm. Peoplenow realize that this unhealthy situation must be changed, and that we must be able to develop in sustainable (可持续的) ways. That means growth with low carbon or development of sustainable products. In other words, we should keep the earth healthy while using its supply of natural resources.Today, sustainable development is a proper trend in many countries. According to a recent study, the global market for low-carbon energy will become three times bigger over the next decades. China, for example, has set its mind on leading that market, hoping to seize chances in the new round of the global energy revolution. It is now trying hard to make full use of wind and solar energy, and is spending a huge amount of money making electric cars and high-speed trains.
