Is that you? ‎ The woman speaking to me at the baseball game looked a little familiar.‎ ‎ "Marci?' I asked.‎ ‎"It is you !" she exclaimed, smiling broadly. "Gosh, it's good to see you again !"‎ It was good to see Marci, too. Off and on during the past few decades I’ve wondered about her. I almost tried to track her down a few years ago after talking to a mutual friend who had indicated that the 1990s had been pretty rocky for Marci. So bumping into her at the baseball game was, at the very least, fortuitous.‎ We spent a few minutes catching up on the business of our lives: kids and grandkids, spouses and houses, education and recreation (it's always a little disconcerting to see how few words are required to summarize 32 years of living). We played a little "have you seen...?" and "did you know...?" and we reminisced about the good old, bad old days. ‎ Then Marci grew quiet for a moment. "You know, Joe," she said. " I've always wanted to tell you...how...how sorry I am for the way I treated you. You must have been hurt both physically and mentally." I was a little embarrassed. I turned and looked at her. "It's OK," I said, "No big deal!" "But I was such a jerk" she continued. Yes you were. I thought.. "We were both pretty young." I smiled. "I know." she said.  "But that's no excuse for..." She hesitated, then continued. "It's just always bothered me, remembering how mean I was to you. And I've wanted to tell you that I'm sorry."‎ The expression on her face was warm and sincere. And there was something in her eyes-- it looked a lot like relief. "OK," I said. "Apology accepted!" Overcome by the sweetness of the moment, I reached an arm around her and gave her a quick hug. Just then, the crowd erupted with a huge cheer, and Marci and I both returned our attention to the game. By the time I looked over to where she had been, she was gone. But the warm, wonderful feeling of our brief exchange was still there, and continues to this day whenever I think about it.‎ Of course, it isn't enough to just say "1'm sorry" and "You're forgiven." But when those words are truly felt and sincerely expressed, they can open the door to miracles of the heart and soul. Forgiveness can bring peace to an injured soul---even years after the fact. Even at a baseball game.‎ ‎24. What kind of life did Marci live during the late 20th century according to the passage?‎ A. Happy. B. Busy. C. Hard. D. Simple.‎ ‎25. What does the underlined word "jerk" in the third paragraph mean?‎ A. A humorous person. B. A cruel person.‎ C. A careless person. D. An honest person.‎ ‎26. Why did Maori look in relief after talking with the author?‎ A. Because her favorite team won the game.‎ B. Because she learned Joe was living a good life.‎ C. Because she made an apology to the author.‎ D. Because she found she was not mean any longer.‎ ‎27. What might be the best title for the passage?‎ A. Excitement of A Baseball Game B. Mental Burden of A Woman C. Relief of finding A friend D. Miracles of Forgiveness C The oddness of life in space never quite goes away. Here are some examples.‎ First consider something as simple as sleep. Its position presents its own challenges. The main question is whether you want your arms inside or outside the sleeping bag. If you leave your arms out, they float free in zero gravity, often giving a sleeping astronaut the look of a funny balled （芭蕾）dancer. “I’m an inside guy,” Mike Hopkins says, who returned from a six-month tour on the International Space Station. “I like to be wrapped up.”‎ On the station, the ordinary becomes strange. The exercise bike for the American astronauts has no handlebars. It also has no seat. With no gravity, it’s just as easy to pedal violently. You can watch a movie while you pedal by floating a microcomputer anywhere you want. But station residents have to be careful about staying in one place too long. Without gravity to help circulate air, the carbon dioxide you exhale has a tendency to form an invisible cloud around you head. You can end up with what astronauts call a carbon-dioxide headache.‎ Leroy Chiao, 54, an American retired astronaut after four flights, describes what happens even before you float out of your seat,”Your inner ear thinks your’re falling . Meanwhile your eyes are telling you you’re standing straight. That can be annoying—that’s why some people feel sick.” Within a couple days —truly terrible days for some —astronauts’ brains learn to ignore the panicky signals from the inner ear, and space sickness disappears.‎ Space travel can be so delightful but at the same time invisibly dangerous. For instance, astronauts lose bone mass. That’s why exercise is considered so vital that National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) puts it right on the workday schedule. The focus on fitness is as much about science and the future as it is about keeping any individual astronauts return home, and, more importantly, how to maintain strength and fitness for the two and a half years or more that it would take to make a round-trip to Mars.‎ ‎28.What is the major challenge to astronauts when they sleep in space?‎ A. Deciding on a proper sleep position B. Choosing a comfortable sleeping bag C. Seeking a way to fall asleep quickly D. Finding a right time to go to sleep.‎ ‎29.The astronauts will suffer from a carbon-dioxide headache when _____.‎ ‎ A. they circle around on their bikes B. they use microcomputers without a stop C. they exercise in one place for a long time D. they watch a movie while pedaling ‎30.Some astronauts feel sick on the station during the first few days because _____.‎ A. their senses stop working B. they have to stand up straight C. they float out of their seats unexpectedly D. whether they are able to go back to the station ‎31.One of the NASA’s major concerns about astronauts is _____.‎ A. how much exercise they do on the station B. how they can remain healthy for long in space C. whether they can recover after returning home D. whether they are able to go back to the station D In today’s difficult economic time, it’s natural to rethink your goal of studying abroad. Does the benefit outweigh the cost? The answer, in fact, is yes, when you look at the road ahead.‎ When the economy becomes more challenged, competition for the workforce increases, and employers look for employees with the best credentials (凭证). Having an overseas degree — from a university where strong English skills are required — can make you more qualified for many jobs. In fact, as corporations become more globalized, having overseas experience becomes more important.‎ The lifelong impact of studying abroad has been proven in several ways:‎ A 50-year study of 3,400 students abroad shows that studying abroad is usually a defining moment in a young person’s life and continues to impact the participant’s life for years after the experience.‎ ‎82% said that they acquired skill that influenced their career path.‎ ‎70% stated that it ignited (点燃) an interest in a career direction that they pursued after the experience.‎ And the effect on one’s career can be equally strong. A study by the Queensland, Australia government showed:‎ ‎61% of employers stated overseas studying experience was positive on a graduate resume.‎ ‎72% of employers felt that a second language made a graduate a more attractive employee.‎ Still, there’s the question of how to pay for studying overseas. But the cost doesn’t have to be as high as you think. Scholarships may be available to cover some or all of these costs. And,‎ ‎ there are plenty of ways to further offset (抵消) the cost — through financial tips, advice and grants.‎ Hundreds of thousands of students will still study abroad this year. With a little financial savvy (见识) and advantage of the TOEFL test — the most accepted, most respected English-language test in the world — you could be one of them.‎ ‎32. What does the author intend to tell us in the passage?‎ A. Studying abroad is easy. ‎ B. Studying abroad is rewarding.‎ C. The effects of studying abroad. ‎ D. The problems with studying abroad.‎ ‎33. The author tries to prove his idea by .‎ A. giving examples ‎ B. answering questions C. offering advice and solutions ‎ D. listing facts and numbers ‎34. The second study shows that studying abroad .‎ A. helps one to get a job ‎ B. affects one’s whole life C. affects one’s career direction ‎ D. helps one to make more money ‎35. Which of the following is NOT the author’s opinion?‎ ‎ A. Financial tips help you offset the costs.‎ ‎ B. Scholarships can cover some of the costs.‎ ‎ C. Money is not a problem for studying abroad.‎ ‎ D. TOEFL test is the most popular English-language test.‎ 第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）‎ Not everyone deals with their feelings as an open book for others to read. 36 Learn to open up in order to improve your mental health.‎ ‎ 37 Accept this and move on. Give yourself some time to have sweaty palms or a shaky voice, since it will get better with practice.‎ Ask people open-ended questions. To begin practicing opening up, you need to engage in honest, open conversation. Try a question like," How are things going at work? " instead of "How's it going?" to get an open answer. Then, in turn answer open-ended questions with honest answers, instead of "Fine" or "OK". 38 However, in most cases people are flattered that you are listening to them and interested in their life.‎ Try emulating（效仿）someone who is very open. Observe them in a social situation. Then, try to act as if you are them occasionally. Many open behaviors are learned, and not a natural part of personality. 39 ‎ Avoid being a "know it all". Some people think advice is opening up, but it is unlikely to help you more open. When you want to give advice, listen and try to learn something new from the situation.‎ ‎ 40 Schedule at least one long conversation per week. In the conversation you tell someone about the emotional and difficult part of your life. Get into the practice of opening up about what's good and bad in your life.‎ A．In this case, practice can make perfect.‎ B．Call close friends and family members more often.‎ C．Asking people personal questions is not always proper.‎ D．Try connecting about hobbies, interests, vacations or books.‎ E．Listening patiently is a great way to overcome fear of sharing emotions in public.‎ F．Understand that there is usually some fear with opening up to other people.‎ G．However, closing yourself o圩from new people can stop your personal growth.‎ 第三部分 英语知识运用（共两节，满分45分）‎ 第一节 完型填空（共20小题；每小题1.5分，满分30分）‎ 阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。‎ This morning I saw an old man.

Square dance becomes more popular than anytime before. However, it’s a little different from the dance you are familiar with. In the morning or after dinner, people, especially elderly women, will gather in squares to dance to popular music. More and more young people are also joining in now.‎ ‎ There are many reasons behind its popularity. First of all, China has made great progress in its social and economical development in the past decades, and people have more time and energy to enjoy themselves. Besides, doing the square dance is a good way for people to get fit.‎ ‎ However, because dancers play loud music and occupy lots of public places, they annoy many people. Maybe square dancers need to make some changes.‎ ‎ Yours,‎ ‎ Li Hua
