It's the kids,of course. Whatever the setting, the question I get asked the most is"Will the kids be alright?". It has made me realize that we tend to look at the glass half-empty rather than half-filled when it comes to mixing work and family. We forget about all the benefits that we bring to our children when we work.‎ About a year ago I remember getting a call from the school."Mrs Brown Quinn, your son asked us to call. He forgot his sports clothes. Can you come back to the school and drop them off?"I was angry! I replied,"Sorry, I'm working at the moment. I'm afraid my son needs to learn to be organized."‎ Kids need to learn to be independent. It can be a cruel and competitive world out there. Seeking interests, including business, outside of your kids, can give you that extra idea that you need not care for your kids with attention. This benefit of working isn't always immediately evident.‎ It wasn't until our daughter went away to college that she realized why we had raised her in the way that we did."Mom,I can't believe how so many of my friends struggle to manage things on their own. They are constantly calling their parents for help."You'll love that moment! After all those years of complaining about why you don't do this of why you don't give them that, your kids realize that tough love ‎ Has made them better people.‎ ‎24. The purpose of the author is to____________.‎ A. describe her own experience in raising children.‎ B. advise us to mix work and family C. argue for working mothers D. tell us a special benefit of working ‎25. How can kids become better people according to the author?‎ A. By showing them your deep love B. By giving them all your attention C. By giving them tough love D. By giving them freedom to do things on their own ‎26. When the author’s daughter grows up,her attitude towards her mother is________.‎ A. caring B. understanding C. disappointed D. surprised ‎27. The author refused to drop off her son’s sports clothes because_________.‎ A. she was caught in heavy traffic B. she wanted her son to be organized C. she thought her son was lying D. she was busy working C I didn’t know how beautiful it is to share time with somebody until I was alone all day for a period of time. When I came here, my husband already had a job. He worked very hard in this job. He left the house at about 9 am and he came back at about 8 pm.‎ I was alone all day long. For some time, I worked in our backyard and made our garden beautiful. I enjoyed being there for the morning coffee, sometimes alone.‎ One day, when I was reading a book, I heard some noise. At first, I thought it was a cat. I was surprised when 1 heard the barking of a dog. It was a nice, young dog. With one look. I thought we made a connection. it started barking happily. It ‎ seemed it wasn't afraid. I came into the house, took some food for it and the dog enjoyed it happily.‎ Then the dog started to run toward me when I went out. It made me happy. At that time, I didn't feel alone anymore, but one question was always in my mind."Who is the owner of this dog?"My husband and I decided to put notices on trees nearby. I wrote that I found a dog. I described it. I hoped that nobody would come.‎ It was raining when a woman and a little boy came. I opened the door. The woman explained they lost a dog, and maybe it was the dog in my garden. I looked at them disappointedly. They came into the garden and the dog recognized them. The boy was very happy. The woman said something like they were very thankful because her son was very sad.‎ I was confused. On the one hand, I felt I lost a friend for my garden, but on the other hand, I felt that the dog didn't belong to me. Small sadness was put in my heart.‎ 28. It can be inferred(推测) according to the first paragraph that_____________.‎ A. the writer’s husband always stayed with her in the past.‎ B. the writer had left her hometown and her old friends.‎ C. the writer had no friends so she felt lonely D. the writer’s friends didn’t like her any more.‎ 29.

Animals have been killed for their fur and feathers , for food, for sport, and simply because they were in the way. Thousands of kinds of animals have disappeared from the earth forever. Hundreds more are on the danger liśt today. About 170 kinds in the United States alone are considered in danger.‎ Why should people care? Because we need animals. And because once they are gone, there will never be any more.‎ Animals are more than just beautiful and interesting. They are more than just a source of food. Every animal has its place in the balance of nature. Destroying one kind of animal can create many problems.‎ For example, when farmers killed large numbers of hawks , the farmers’ stores of corn and grain were destroyed by rats and mice. Why? Because hawks eat rats and mice. With no hawks to keep down their numbers, the rats and mice multiplied quickly. ‎ Luckily, some people are working to help save the animals. Some groups raise money to let people know about the problem. And they try to get the governments to pass laws protecting animals in danger.‎ Quite a few countries have passed laws. These laws forbid the killing of any animal or plant on the danger list. Slowly, the number of some animals in danger is growing.‎ 32. Animals are important to us mainly because__________.‎ A. they give us a source of food A. they are beautiful and lovely B. they give us a lot of pleasure C. they keep the balance of nature 33. What has happened to the animals on the earth?‎ A. About 170 kinds of animanls have disappeared forever.‎ B. A few kinds of animals have died out.‎ C. Thousands of kinds of animals are gone forever.‎ D. All kinds of animals are in danger.‎ 34. Which of the following is NOT true?‎ A. People care much about animals because they need them.‎ B. People must not kill any animal or plant.‎ C. Killing all rats and mice may cause some new problems.‎ D. Once a certain kind of animals is gone forever, there will never be any more.‎ 35. What can we conclude from the fact that quite a few countries have passed laws protecting animals in danger?‎ A. Animals in danger will be kept away from people.‎ B. Animals in danger will not be killed any more.‎ C. Every person will know the importance of protecting wild animals.‎ D. The number of some animals in danger will increase.‎ 第二节 （共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）     根据短文的内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两个多余选项。‎ The best suggestions you have ever gained ‎36‎ A very smart woman I worked with once told me that if I got rid of the word"but"from my professional vocabulary, I'd find greater acceptance for my ideas, and greater cooperation from my team members... The word “but” negates ( 否 定 ) everything that happens before it, and you give a negative opinion on anything you say when you ‎ use it...‎ You never get anything unless you ask.‎ It was from a professor in my university, but I believe its origin is from somebody famous : 37‎ Think before you complain.‎ ‎ Don't complain. I think it was described as something like."Do you ever listen to someone complaining and think, this is a great conversation ? 38"‎ Time is the one thing you never get back.‎ An instructor I had some years ago told me that time is the one thing that you can never get back. If you look at it as an asset (资产), you can donate it, spend it, or waste it. 39‎ Attitude is more important than talent.‎ I have been time and again repeatedly told that a strong positive attitude takes a man farther than his talent. There are many greats in sports, entertainment, politics, science and art who had great talent but lost on huge counts only because of a faulty and shaky(不坚定的) attitude.‎ ‎40 Attitude helps you go through problems that talent hides.‎ A. Say"but"when necessary.‎ B. Never say"but".‎ C. Attitude helps you solve problems talent cannot.‎ D. Talent can help you solve problems as efficiently as attitude.‎ E. If you don't ask, the answer is always"no".‎ F. Whatever you do with it, it is gone once it passes.‎ G. Being negative doesn't help others, and it doesn't help you.‎ 第三部分 ‎ 英语知识运用（共两节，满分45分） 第一节 完形填空（共20小题，每小题1.5分，满分30分）‎ Once upon a time there lived a cruel lion in a thick forest.
