Promise to be there for any and all doctor's visits whether a disease or a regular medical check-up. Most mothers always say "no need," but another set of eyes and ears is always a good idea at a doctor's visit. The best part? This one is free.‎ Gift No. 2‎ Help your mother organize all of her medical records, which include the test results and medical information. Put them all in one place. Be sure to make a list of all of her medicines and what times she takes them. "Having all this information in one place could end up saving your mother's life," Dr. Marie Savard said.‎ Gift No. 3‎ Enough sleep is connected to general health conditions. "Buy your mother cotton sheets and comfortable pillows to encourage better sleep," Savard said. "We know that good sleep is very important to our health."‎ Gift No. 4‎ Some gift companies such as Presents for Purpose allow you to pay it forward this Mother's Day by picking gifts in which 10 percent of the price you pay goes to a charity (慈善机构) Gift givers can choose from a wide variety of useful but inexpensive things -many of which are "green" - and then choose a meaningful charity from a list. When your mother gets the gift, she will be told that she has helped the chosen charity.‎ ‎21. What are you advised to do for your mother at doctor's visits?‎ A. Take notes. B. Be with her. C. Buy medicine. D. Give her gifts.‎ ‎22. What can be a gift of organization for your mother?‎ A. Keeping her medical information together.‎ B. Buying all gifts for her from one company.‎ C. Making a list of her medical check-ups. ‎ D. Storing her medicines in a safe place.‎ ‎23. Where can you find a gift idea to improve your mother’s sleep?‎ A. In Gift No. 1. B. In Gift No. 2. C. In Gift No. 3. D. In Gift No. 4.‎ ‎24. Buying gifts from Presents for Purpose allows mothers to A. enjoy good sleep B. be well-organized ‎ C. get extra support D. give others help B Over the holidays, I took my three young children into a fancy chocolate shop to buy gifts. Halfway home, I noticed my 7-year-old son playing with a plastic noisemaker. Long story short: He had stolen the toy. I kept cool -- even when he said, "but it was only $1.50, Mom!" --and explained why it was unacceptable to take things we didn't buy.‎ ‎ A few hours later, I marched my son back to the store with two dollars from his piggy bank. He walked embarrassedly to the counter and told the clerk that he had taken something without paying for it, that he was sorry to break it and that he would pay for it now.‎ ‎ I know exactly how terrible he was feeling. Returning to the scene of the crime is the same shame-causing punishment I received when I was five and stole something from a store. 1 remember my dad sending me back to return the item. It remains one of my clearest childhood memories. After that day, I never stole again. My dad taught me such an important lesson 30 years ago and I saw an opportunity to do the same for my son. But now I wonder if it was the right thing to do.‎ ‎ "Returning to the store is absolutely the right thing to do," Laura Markham, Ph.D., a child psychologist and author of Peaceful Parent, Happy Kids, says. "Many children steal -- they' re not born ‎ knowing the rules so it' s our job to teach them."‎ ‎ And stay calm when you set them. "If you overreact or yell, you might create a fascination (着迷) with the behavior and a willful child will be more likely to fight against you and steal again," she says. Having a child physically return the stolen item helps him or her grasp the situation -- and the consequence.‎ ‎ But don't talk about it for too long. "lf you continuously bring up the incident, the child will believe they' re a thief and that they' re bad," she says.‎ ‎ Only time will tell if this experience will have the same powerful effect on my son as it had on me, but at the same time I can rest if I haven' t dealt with the situation badly.‎ ‎25. When the author' s son was caught playing with a stolen toy, he________.‎ ‎ A. responded calmly B. felt very ashamed ‎ C. didn't think it was a big deal D. didn't admit stealing the toy ‎26. The author punished her son like that because __________.‎ ‎ A. her father asked her to do so ‎ B. it had been popular for 30 years ‎ C. she knew it was the right thing to do ‎ D. the same punishment had worked on her ‎27. According to Laura Markham, if parents shout at their kids' stealing behavior, the kids may _______.‎ ‎ A. feel frightened B. steal again ‎ C. think they are bad D. remember what happened clearly ‎28. What does the author think of Laura Markham' s words?‎ ‎ A. They are doubtful. B. They are unacceptable.‎ ‎ C. They help her to stop feeling worried. D. They have taught her a good lesson.‎ C Do you want to be a successful person? Would you like to know how successful people usually think and what drives them? Here I am going to tell you the key to success that successful people share.‎ First of all, successful people never blame someone or something outside of themselves for their failure to move ahead. They realize that their future lies in their own hands. They understand that they can’t control things in life, such as nature, the past and other people. At the same time, they are well aware that they can control their own thoughts and actions. They take responsibility for their life.‎ Perhaps what most separates successful people from others is that they live life “on purpose”-- they are doing what they believe they are put here to do. In their opinion, having a purpose in their life is the most important element that enables them to deal with things around them. They hold the view that when they live their life “on purpose”, their main concern is to do the job right. They live what they do. People want to do business with them because of their commitment. To live their life “on purpose”, successful people find a cause they believe in and create a business around it.‎ Besides, they never give up easily. Once they have set up goals in their life, they are willing to do whatever it takes to achieve their goals. Achievers always bear in mind what they don’t have forever. Rather than see this as negative or depressing, they would use the knowledge to spur themselves on and go after what they want energetically and passionately.‎ So keep in mind what successful people always hold to be true so that you will have a clear idea of what you should do to be successful in life.‎ ‎29. According to the paragraph two, to be successful, ______.‎ A. you should set up a realistic goal ‎ ‎ B. you should know your strengths and weaknesses C. you shouldn’t blame others for your failure ‎ D. you shouldn’t waste time ‎30. Which is NOT the key to success that successful people share?‎ A. Taking responsibility for their life. ‎ B. Never giving up easily.‎ C. Having a goal in life. ‎ D. Controlling things in life.‎ ‎31. The underlined word “spur” in paragraph 4 probably means “______”.‎ A. interest B. equip C. depend D. inspire ‎32. The author’s purpose in writing this passage is to ______.‎ A. explain the exact meaning of success ‎ ‎ B. share the key to success with readers C. tell his experience of achieving success ‎ D. encourage readers to learn from failure D Old age may not sound exciting. But recent findings offer good news for older people and for people worried about getting older. Researchers found that people become happier and experience less worry after they reach the age of 50. In fact, they say by the age of 85, people are happier with their life than they were when they were 18 years old. The findings came from a survey of more than 340,000 adults in the United States. The Gallup Organization questioned them by telephone in 2008. At that time, the people were between the ages of 18 and 85. The researchers asked questions about emotions like happiness, sadness and worry. They also asked about mental or emotional stress. Arthur Stone in the Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Science at Stony Brook University in New York led the study. His team found that levels of stress were highest among adults between the ages of 24 and 25. The findings showed that stress levels dropped sharply after people reached their fifties. The study also showed that men and women have similar feeling patterns as they grow older. However, women at all ages reported more sadness, stress and worry than men. Researchers say they do not know why happiness increases as people get older. One theory is that, as people grow older, they grow more thankful for what they have and have better control of their feelings. They so spend less time thinking about bad experiences. Professor Stone says the emotional patterns could be linked to changes in how people see the world, or maybe even changes in brain chemistry. The researchers also considered possible influences like having young children, being unemployed or being single. But they found that influences like these did not affect the levels of happiness and well-being related to age. 33. According to the survey of the Gallup Organization people are most likely to become happier_______‎ A. when they are between the ages of 18 and 85 ‎ B．when they come to their old age C．when they are in their twenties ‎ D．when they are 18 years old ‎34. Who would probably show the greatest interest in the passage?‎ A．Those who are worried about getting old ‎ B．Those who are single and unemployed C．Those who feel unhappy all the time ‎ D．Those who suffer from mental stress ‎35. What would be the best title for the passage?‎ A．Getting Older Means Getting Happier ‎ B．The Young Are Happier Than the Old C．Women Are Easier to Be Happy in Life ‎ D．The Younger, the Happier 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。选项中有两项为多余选项。‎ Having a good English dictionary is important if you want to learn the language well. A good dictionary will show you how to pronounce the word and give examples of how the word is commonly used. In fact, it is probably the most valuable tool you can have while taking English classes. 36 How do you choose a good dictionary? Here are some tips to consider.‎ Make sure the dictionary offers some example sentences so you can see different ways that the word is used. 37 It will provide valuable grammar information as well. Most will identify the word as a noun, verb, adjective, etc.‎ ‎   A good dictionary will provide more than one definition(定义) for a word whenever it has different meanings. This is very common in the English language, and knowing the right definition of a word is necessary to learn the language properly.‎ ‎   38 Find one that can be carried easily but still has print that is easy to read. If you prefer to have both a pocket and a desk dictionary, you should buy the same one for both to avoid confusion.‎ ‎   The last item to consider is price. Dictionaries come in a very wide price range. 39 A good dictionary is something that you will use in your studies for a very long time, so it is really an important investment(投资) . Nowadays, online dictionaries can be a useful tool as well, and can provide a quick definition for most words. 40 Software dictionaries that you download to your computer are usually better, but it can still take longer to look up a word in a database than it would to look the word up in a book.‎ A. But don’t leave it on a shelf to gather dust B. Try to find a dictionary that is comfortable to use.‎ C. Choose one that has only English in it D. But they are generally not as complete as a book dictionary.‎ E. So you will have to look for one that best fits your budget(预算).‎ F. This will help you better understand the meaning of the word.‎ G. But there are quite a number of dictionaries on the market.‎ 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。‎ My mother is an inspiration to me because she has been through many complications in her life.‎ My mother was the third 41 out of six children and she didn’t have the 42 children should have.
