I opened my eyes and looked at the clock. "Oh dear! It's a quarter to eight already. I'll be late for school again," I thought. I jumped out of the bed, washed my face, then hurried to the bus stop without breakfast. As soon as I got on the bus, it started running. "I'm sure I can get to the school on time," I said to myself. Suddenly the bus stopped. The bus driver got off the bus, then got on the bus again and said, "I'm sorry, ladies and gentlemen. There's something wrong with the bus. Please get off the bus and wait for another one." "I couldn't wait. The school is not far. I'd better run to the school," I thought, and then I began to run. But before I got to the school, it began to rain hard.‎ I reached the classroom but I was wet shivering(颤抖) with cold. The physics teacher had already begun his lesson. It was Mr. Smith. He was about fifty years old. All the students were a little afraid of him and so was I. I liked neither him nor his physics lessons. I hesitated(犹豫) for a moment and then I opened the door. "I'm very sorry, Mr. Smith. I'm late again," I said with a red face.‎ ‎　　"It's you again, Jim," Mr. smith said angrily. "I've told you not be late, but you…" he suddenly stopped and looked at my wet clothes. He turned to the class and said, "I'm very sorry, my boys and girls." With these words he quickly took off his own jacket and handed it to me. "Now take off your wet coat and put this one or you'll catch cold," he said kindly.‎ ‎　　I went to my seat with Mr. Smith's jacket on. It was a bit large for me but I felt very warm in it. I found, for the first time, physics was so interesting and how well I could understand it!‎ ‎　 6. Jim was late for school because _______.‎ ‎　　A. he was ill.

Week by week her list grew: I was very thin, I wasn’t a good student, I talked too much, I was too proud, and so on. I tried to hear all this as long as I could. At last, I became very angry. I ran to my father with tears in my eyes. ‎ He listened to me quietly, then he asked. “Are the things she says true or not? Janet, didn’t you ever wonder what you’re really like? Well, you now have that girl’s opinion. Go and make a list of everything she said and mark the points that are true. Pay no attention to the other things she said.” ‎ I did as he told me. To my great surprise, I discovered that about half the things were true. Some of them I couldn’t change (like being very thin), but a good number I could—and suddenly I wanted to change. For the first time I go to fairly clear picture of myself. ‎ I brought the list back to Daddy. He refused to take it.“That’s just for you,” he said. “You know better than anyone else the truth about yourself. But you have to learn to listen, not just close your ears in anger and feeling hurt. When something said about you is true, you’ll find it will be of help to you. Our world is full of people who think they know your duty. Don’t shut your ears. Listen to them all, but hear the truth and do what you know is the right thing to do.” ‎ Daddy’s advice has returned to me at many important moments. In my life, I’ve never had a better piece of advice. ‎ ‎10. What did the father do after he had heard his daughter’s complaint(抱怨)? ‎ A. He told her not to pay any attention to what her “enemy” had said. ‎ B. He criticized her and told her to overcome her shortcomings. ‎ C. He refused to take the list and have a look at it. ‎ D. He told her to write down all that her “enemy” had said about her and pay attention only to the things that were true ‎ ‎11. Why did her father listen to her quietly? ‎ A. Because he knew that his daughter would not listen to him at that moment. ‎ B. Because he had been so angry with his daughter’s shortcomings that he wanted to show this by keeping silent for a while. ‎ C. Because he believed that what her daughter’s “enemy” said was mostly true. ‎ D. Because he wasn’t quite sure which girl was telling the truth. ‎ ‎12. Which do you think would be the best title for this passage? ‎ A. Not an Enemy, but the Best Friend ‎ B. My Father ‎ C. The Best Advice I’ve Ever Had ‎ D. My Childhood ‎ D In order to know a foreign language thoroughly(彻底地),four things are necessary. First, we must understand the language when we hear it spoken. Secondly, we must be able to speak it ourselves, correctly with confidence and without hesitation（犹豫）. Thirdly, we must be able to write it. We must be able to make sentences that are correct in grammar.‎ There is no short way to succeed in language learning. A good memory is a great help, but it is not enough only to memorize the rules from a grammar book. It is no much use learning by heart long lists of words and their meanings, studying the dictionary and so on. We must learn by using the language. If we are pleased with a few rules we have memorized, we are not really learning the language. We must ‎ “Learn through use”. Practice is important. We must practise speaking and writing the language whenever we can.‎ ‎13. The most important things to learn a foreign language are .‎ ‎ A. hearing, speaking, reading and writing ‎ B. understanding and speaking ‎ ‎ C. writing and understanding ‎ D. memorizing and listening ‎14. Which of the following is the most important in learning a foreign language?‎ ‎ A. A good memory. B. Practice. ‎ C. Speaking. D. Writing.‎ ‎15. “Learn through use” means ________ .‎ ‎ A. we use a language in order to learn it ‎ B. we learn foreign language in order to use it ‎ C. both A and B ‎ D. we can learn a language well while we are using it 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人空白的最佳选项。 ‎ How to improve vocabulary fast ‎    Your vocabulary refers to the words in a language you are familiar with. We should learn some ways to expand it.‎ ‎    Read every day.16. Choose reading material that is slightly above your level and keep a dictionary with you to look up words you do not know.‎ ‎    17.If you do not meet with an unfamiliar word in your daily reading, use your dictionary to search for one.‎ ‎    Learn the correct definition and pronunciation for each new word. Pronunciation is as important as definition because in order to add a word to your active vocabulary, you must be able to use it in speech.‎ ‎    Elaborate (详尽阐述) on the meaning of the word. If you have just learned the word “stubborn”, think about the neighbour who will not lend you his car.18.‎ ‎    Use your new word in speech and in writing. E-mail your sister about how your cat is stubborn about sleeping on your pillow. 19.But the more you use it, the more fluent you will become in its use. Soon it will be a regular part of your active vocabulary.‎ ‎    Tell everyone you are trying to increase your vocabulary. Encourage them to ask you what your latest word is.20.‎ The more you explain the meaning of a word to someone, the more likely you are to remember it.‎ A. Find a new word every day.‎ B. The vocabulary can be increased.‎ C. Your vocabulary contains the words you understand.‎ D. The more often you read, the faster your vocabulary can grow.‎ E. Or let them ask for the definition of a new word you have used.‎ F. Imagine him shaking his head, and think of him as ‘stubborn in his refusal.”‎ G. The first time you use a new word in speech it may seem strange.‎ 第二部分：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）‎ 阅读下面短文，掌握其大意，然后从A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。‎ ‎ When Dave was eighteen, he bought a secondhand car for 200 so that he could travel to and from work more_21_ than by bus.

As a senior III student, I had to devote most of my time to reviewing my lessons during the summer vacation. However, I still managed to spare some time to travel to several places of interest and read novels to refresh myself. In the new term, I’ll work hard and try to make greater progress, hoping to be admitted to my dream university. Best wishes. Yours sincerely,‎ Li Hua
