A
A mouse looked through a crack in the wall to see the farmer and his wife opening a package: What food might it contain? He was astonished to discover that it was a mouse trap!
Retreating to the farmyard, the mouse declared the warning, “There is a mouse trap in the house, there is a mouse trap in the house.”
The chicken clucked and scratched, raised her head and said, “Mr Mouse, I can tell you this is a grave concern to you, but it is of no consequence to me, I cannot be bothered by it.”
The mouse turned to the pig and told him, “There is a mouse trap in the house.”“I am so sorry, Mr Mouse,” sympathized the pig, “but there is nothing I can do about it but pray; be assured that you are in my prayers.”
The mouse turned to the cow, who replied, “A mouse trap, am I in grave danger, huh?”
So the mouse returned to the house, head down and depressed to face the farmer’s mouse trap alone.
That very night a sound was heard throughout the house, like the sound of a mouse trap catching its prey. The farmer’s wife rushed to see what was caught. In the darkness, she did not see that it was an evil snake whose tail the trap had caught. The snake bit the farmer’s wife. The farmer rushed her to the hospital. She returned home with a fever. Now everyone knew to treat a fever with fresh chicken soup, so the farmer took his hatchet to the farmyard for the soup’s main ingredient. His wife’s sickness continued so that friends and neighbors came to sit with her around the clock. To feed them, the farmer butchered the pig. The farmer’s wife did not get well, in fact, she died, and so many people came for her funeral. The farmer had the cow slaughtered to provide meat for all of them to eat.
So the next time you hear that someone is facing a problem and think that it does not concern you, remember that when the least of us is threatened, we are all at risk.
36. We may infer that the passage is most probably a ______.
A. fairy tale
B. fable
C. science fiction
D. news report
37. We could see from the passage that the mouse was ______.
A. kind and warm-hearted
B. well-informed
C. good at cheating others
D. foolish and rude
38. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
A. The pig was comparatively less friendly than the others in the farmyard.
B. The mouse trap that the mouse discovered was not a practical one.
C. The farmer and his wife trapped an evil snake that night.
D. The farmer’s family was in fact poor and they had no friends.
39. The underlined word “ingredient” (Paragraph 7) refers to ______.
A. the mouse
B. the pig
C. the snake
D. the chicken
40. What can we learn from the story?
A. Better safe than sorry.
B. Traps are usually well disguised.
C. To help others is just to save you.
D. To keep the balance of nature is the duty of us all.
B
The other day, my friend Jane was invited to a 40th birthday party. The time printed on the invitation was 7.30pm. Jane went off with her husband, expecting a merry evening of wine, food, and song.
By 9.45, everybody was having great fun, but no food had appeared. Jane and David were restless. Other guests began whispering that they, too, were starving. But no one wanted to leave, just in case some food was about to appear. By 11.00, there was still no food, and everyone was completely off their heads. Jane and David left hungry and angry.
Their experience suggests that the words on the printed invitations need to be made clearer. Everyone reads and understands the invitations differently. Most of us would agree that 6.30
-8.30pm means drinks only, go out to dinner afterwards; 8.00pm or 8.30pm means possible dinner, but 9.30pm and any time thereafter means no food, oat beforehand, roll up late.
But this is not always the case. If asked to a students' party at 6.30pm, it is normal for guests not to appear before midnight, if at all, and no one cares. Being the first to arrive - looking eager - is social death. When my mother is asked to a party for 6.30, she likes to be them, if not on lime, then no later than seven. My age group （late thirties）falls somewhere between the two, but because we still think we're young, we're probably closer to student-time than grown-up time.
The accepted custom at present is confusing （混乱的）, sometimes annoying, and it often means you may go home hungry, but it does lend every party that precious element （成分）of surprise.
41. The underlined words "off their heads" probably mean______.
A. tired
B. crazy
C. curious
D. hopeless
42. Jane and David' s story is used to show that______ .
A. petty-goer8 usually get hungry at parties
B. party invitations can be confusing
C. people should ask for food at parties
D. birthday parties for middle-aged people are dull
43. For some young people, arriving on time for a students' party will probably be
considered_______.
A. very difficult
B. particularly thoughtful
C. friendly and polite
D. socially unacceptable
44. According to the writer, people in their late thirties_______.
A. are likely to arrive late for a party
B. care little about the party time
C. haven' t really grown up yet
D. like surprises at parties
45. What is the general idea of the text?
A. It' s safe to arrive late just when food is served.
B. It' s wise to eat something before going to a party.
C. It' s important to follow social rules of party-going.
D. It' s necessary to read invitations carefully.

A high school history teacher once told us，“If you make one close friend in school，you will be most fortunate．A true friend is someone who stays with you for life．”Experience teaches that he is right．Good friendships are just not easily formed．
It is possible that we simply do not stay in one place long enough for a true friendship to develop．However，there can be no disagreement on the need for each of us to think carefully about the kind of friendships we want．
To most of us，friendships are considered very important，but we need to be clear in our own minds the kinds of friendships we want．Are they to be close or kept at arm's length？Do we want to share ourselves or do we want to walk on the surface？For some people，many friendships on the surface are quite enough—and that's all right．But at some point we need to make sure that our expectations are the same as our friends' expectations．If one wants more from the friendship than
the other，and if this is not talked about，one is likely at last to feel that he's holding the short end of the stick．The sharing of personal experience including our tears as well as our dark dreams，is the surest way to deepen friendships．But it must be undertaken（进行）slowly and carried on only if there are signs of interest and action in return．
What are some of the difficulties to friendship？The greatest is the attraction to expect too much too soon．Deep relationships take time．Another“major difficulty”is the selfishness to think one“possesses”the other，including his time and attention．Similarly，friendships require actions in return．In other words，you must give as much as you take．Finally there is a question of taking care of．Unless you spend reasonable time together，talking on the phone，writing letters，doing things together，friendships will die away．
根据短文内容，判断下列句子正（T）误（F）。
（）46．Making a good friend，one need to consider what kind of friendships he wants．( ) 47. It is right that friendships on the surface is quite enough．
( ) 48. All friendships should be close relationships．
（）49．True friends are willing to share each other's experiences．
（）50．There is no question of taking care of between true friends．
D
How could we possibly think that keeping animals in cages in unnatural environments－mostly for entertainment purposes－is fair and respectful?
Zoo officials say they are concerned about animals. However, most zoos remain “collections” of interesting “things” rather than protective habitats(栖息地). Zoos teach people that it is acceptable to keep animals bored, lonely, and far from their natural homes.
Zoos claim(声称) to educate people and save endangered species(物种), but visitors leave zoos without having learned anything meaningful about the animals’ natural behavior, intelligence, or beauty. Zoos keep animals in small spaces or cages, and most signs only mention the species’ name, diet, and natural range(分布区). The animals’ normal behavior is seldom noticed because zoos don’t usually take care of the animals’ natural needs.
The animals are kept together in small spaces, with no privacy and little opportunity for mental and physical exercise. This results in unusually and self-destructive behavior called zoochosis. A worldwide study of zoos found that zoochosis is common among animals kept in small spaces or cages. Another study showed that elephants spend 22 percent of their time making repeated head movements or biting cage bars, and bears spend 30 percent of their time walking back and forth, a sign of unhappiness and pain.
Furthermore, most animals in zoos are not endangered. Captive breeding(圈养繁殖) of endangered big cats. Asian elephants, and other species has not resulted in their being sent back to the wild. Zoos talk a lot about their captive breeding programs because they do not want people to worry about a species dying out. In fact, baby animals also attract a lot of paying customers. Haven’t we seen enough competitions to name baby animals?
Actually, we will save endangered species only if we save their habitats and put an end to the reasons people kill them. Instead of supporting zoos, we should support groups that work to protect animals’ natural habitats.
51．How would the author describe the animals’ life in zoos?
A．Dangerous. B．Unhappy. C．Natural. D．Easy.
52．In the state of zoochosis, animals _________.
A．remain in cages B．behave strangely
C．attack other animals D．enjoy moving around
53．What does the author try to argue in the passage?
A．Zoos are not worth the public support.
B．Zoos fail in their attempt to save animals.
C．Zoos should treat animals as human beings.
D．Zoos use animals as a means of entertainment.
54．The author tries to persuade readers to accept his argument mainly by _________.
A．pointing out the faults in what zoos do
B．using evidence he has collected at zoos
C．questioning the way animals are protected
D．discussing the advantages of natural habitats
55．Although he argues against zoos, the author would still agree that __________.
A．zoos have to keep animals in small cages
B．most animals in zoos are endangered species
C．some endangered animals are reproduced in zoos
D．it’s acceptable to keep animals away from their habitats

六、书面表达（满分25分）
Dear Andrew,
I can understand how you feel. When I was young, I had the same experience as you do. But after I talked with my parents heart to heart, we had a better understanding of each other. So try to communicate with your parents to let them know that you are wise enough to manage your own business well. To understand them better, always put yourself in their position. Don’t you think that all parents in the world love their children even though they are sometimes strict and serious? If you can spend your time and money more wisely, I’m sure that your parents will trust you and you will enjoy more freedom.
By the way, it’s understandable that your parents ask you to put your studies in the first place.
I hope my advice is of help to you.
Yours,
Mary。
