However, they talk about a lot, like their newest computer, how to repair their car, or even business.‎ Talk might move to the best place to find fish or women, jump to computer games, then continue to the sport of the season. They also like to tell jokes each other and spend a fair amount of time playing one-up and boasting (吹牛).Men seldom call each other to chat.‎ When man meets woman, he usually wants to make a good impression. Many single men try hard to carry on amusing, fun, and pleasant conversations. They use conversation to discover her interests and feelings in order to learn how to be attractive to her.‎ Some men, either out of nervousness or ignorance, spend most of the time talking about themselves, often appearing to brag about their achievements or talk endlessly about their problems or work. Even the quietest man talks to his woman when love is new.‎ When women get together, they talk about feelings and relationships, their work and their family. They enjoy talking but also want the give and take of talk, then listen. Women often call each other to chat. Conversation is an important part of most women’s 1ives. ‎ As relationships progress, however, many a man turns on the television and forgets how to talk. This raises anger and cry from his woman partner who says, “You never talk to me anymore.” Some men start talking. Many, however, mainly discuss their own achievements and problems. ‎ When the woman starts talking about her favorite subjects: feelings, family, relationships, friends and her work, many men lose interest or bring the conversation back to themselves. Pretty soon, the man is back to staring at the television each night, wondering where his relationship has gone. The woman is talking to her friends, mom, sister, or neighbor, often about that very relationship and how she is hurting.‎ ‎24. What can we know about men from the first two paragraphs?‎ A.

Talking, the women’s main tool in communication.‎ C ‎ In Asia, there are special competitions where kites have complex designs and are fitted with instruments that make musical sounds as the wind blows through them. Although all kites have a similar structure (结构), they are widely different in size and shape. Kite-fighting competitions are also held, in which competitors use their kites to attack and bring down their opponents’(对手) kites or cut their strings(线).‎ For more than 15 years, the Big Wind Kite Factory has been giving kite-making and kite-flying classes for the children on an island in Hawaii. In its kite-making lessons, students can make kites in as little as 20 minutes! Children as young as ‎ four years old can learn how to fly a kite. Jonathan Socher and his wife Daphne started the kite factory in 1980. Their kites are made of nylon(尼龙).Their designs are Hawaiian themes created by Daphne. The designs are cut out of the nylon with a hot knife that seals (密封） the edges and then fastened directly onto the kite.‎ The kite that is used to give lessons is a regular diamond kite with a rainbow pattern. The difference between this kite and the ones they make during the lessons is that it is a two-string controllable kite. Big Wind employees fly the kite and for a few minutes show students how pulling on one line and then on the other controls the direction the kite goes in. Then the controls are given to the students.‎ Jonathan insists that it is not necessary to make a huge impressive kite to have fun making and flying kites. Even the simplest structure can work, and can give hours of fun. Go on, give it a try!‎ ‎28. Which of the following is true according to the text?‎ A. A hot knife is used to iron the nylon.‎ B. Children never fly kites on their own in flying lessons.‎ C. Kite strings must not be cut in kite-fighting competitions.‎ D. Daphne designs kites for the Big Wind Kite Factory.‎ ‎29. What is different about the kite used for flying lessons?‎ A. It has two strings.‎ B. It is simple in design.‎ C. It has a rainbow pattern.‎ D. It is shaped like a diamond.‎ ‎30. According to Jonathan, what do you need to have fun with kites?‎ A. A large kite. B. Any type of kite.‎ C. A complex structure. D. A kite that impresses others.‎ ‎31. What is mainly described in the text?‎ A. A kite factory. B. Kite-flying lessons.‎ C. Special competitions. D. The kite-making process.‎ ‎ D My daughter Kelly is a cautious person. She needs to warm up to situations, and is hesitant to try new things. When with close friends, she becomes a leader who laughs loudly and chants, “Girls rule, boys drool (流口水)” But when that comfort zone is not around her, she is shy and nervous.‎ This had been challenging for me at times. “Shy” is not a word that I think has ever been used to describe me. But this has been a year of “firsts” for my girl that has filled her with a new sense of confidence. This year she moved to lap lane in swimming where she was preparing for a swim team. This year she learned to ride a bike without training wheels. And this year she completed her first kids’ triathlon (三项全能).‎ On Saturday, with a thunderstorm coming soon and my son’s birthday party later in the day, we all went out in the dark of the morning for Kelly to participate in her first triathlon. We practiced transitions (过渡) from swim to bike to run with her, we got all the equipment she’d need, and we kept talking about the race. But as we waited the two hours for the older kids to finish before her turn, she held my leg a little harder and told me she loved me many times. She was nervous but trying to keep it together.‎ And then it was her turn. From the second she jumped into the water, my face lit up. My daughter transformed into the most confident human being I had ever seen. She dominated (主宰) that swim, won that bike ride and ran to the finish with the biggest smile on her face.‎ I can honestly say that I never felt so proud of someone in my entire life. It wasn’t because she did a sport or anything like that. It was because she was afraid of something and conquered (克服) that fear with confidence and a fire I hadn’t seen before.‎ All day I would find myself just looking over at her and smiling. She might be wearing the finalist medal but I felt like I won that day. I won the chance to see my girl shine.‎ Shine on, sweet baby.‎ ‎32. Kelly is nervous when ______.‎ A. situations are new to her B. boys are around her C. she changes into a leader D. she is away from her mom ‎33. We can know from the Paragraph 3 ______ .‎ A. the race began in the early morning B. the whole family gave Kelly support C. Kelly was eager for her turn in the race D. Kelly prepared for her brother’s birthday party ‎34. Seeing Kelly’s performance in the race, the author felt ______.‎ A. excited and proud B. anxious and uneasy C. curious and concerned D. worried and hesitant ‎35. The author “felt like I won that day ” because Kelly ______.‎ A. expressed love to her B. won the gold medal C. took part in the sport D. overcame the fear 第二节 （共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）‎ 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中多余选项。‎ ‎ There are three things that will get you ahead in life: good looks, smarts, and being considered as being smart._____36____ And unluckily most of us are not good-looking. Let’s explore some different ways to become smarter. ‎ ‎_____37____College doesn’t necessarily mean you’ll be smarter, just educated. It means you’ll be exposed to many different ideas and hopefully you’ll learn how to think. Being able to think outside the box and for yourself are features smart people possess.  Read books and educational magazines.   _____38____   Educational magazines are a wealth of knowledge you can share with others, thus making you sound very smart.

It doesn’t seem like much, but adding 52 new words to your vocabulary will really make you ‎ appear much smarter. Subscribing（订阅）to vocabulary is a good start. _____39____This way you’re actually getting 365 words a year, but that is usually more than most people can absorb.  Don’t repeat everything people tell you until you know that it’s true. _____40____  They hear a strange saying and they repeat it to the nearest ear. You can do much harm to your looking for being smart if you are known for giving bad information.‎ A．Go to college and get an education.‎ B．The first is God-given.‎ C．Get educated inside or outside college.‎ D．You will have a new word sent to your email address daily.‎ E. The programs actually provide you with information you can use.  F. Uneducated people and people not considered as being smart tend to do this.  G.
