On a Saturday afternoon back in 2002, just when my aunt Lorraine was starting to pack up, I discovered my very own treasure — a pair ofblack boots. Although they weren’t anything fancy, they caught my eyes. Plusthey were only two dollars. She noticed me eyeing them up and said I could have them for fifty cents. ‎ Even better! I thought to myself as I pulled them on. They were the perfect fit.‎ When I handed over the money little did I know that these boots would accompany me on some of my greatest adventures. Each year I make a journey overseas and that year, I was making arrangements to visit Helsinki (the capital of Finland), so naturally, I packed the boots. It was winter, but the boots protected my feet from the cold weather. I wore them everywhere. The boots even accompanied me as I walked through the night to find live music. I felt right at home among old friends. ‎ In 2009, I went to Aunt Lorraine’s home to attend my cousin Jason’s birthday party. While we were talking, Jason stared atmy boots. ‎ He asked, “Where did you get those boots?”‎ ‎“I bought them at your family’s garage sale,” I responded. ‎ Jason turned to face his mother. “Mum! You sold my boots? I bought them in Milan and I’ve worn them through New York, London, Berlin and Paris,”he said. ‎ After a silence, however, he laughed and said, “Thanks alot, Mum!” We spent the rest ofthe evening sharing memories ofthe journeys we’d both had wearing the same pair of boots.‎ The boots are no longer fit for wear, but I have held on to them as a memento (纪念物) of the last decade, the places we have walked and the memories we now share. ‎ ‎21. The author bought the boots_______. ‎ A. from his cousin ‎ B. at the price of $2 ‎ C. without hesitation ‎ D. for his adventurous trips ‎ ‎22. The moment Jason knew his boots were sold, he felt_______. ‎ A. exhausted B. angry C. worried D. confused ‎ ‎23. Jason said thanks to his mother because_______. ‎ A. he didn’t want the boots any more ‎ B. it was she who bought him the boots ‎ C. he couldn’t travel worldwide without her ‎ D. he could share common memories with the author ‎ ‎24. What would be the best title for the text? ‎ A. Sweet memories. B. A familytradition. ‎ C. My beloved boots. D. My great adventures.‎ B If you’re a frequent visitor to the U.S.National Parks or if you’re planning a trip that includes visits to multiple parks, you should consider purchasing an annual park pass, which also marks a great holiday gift!

Both Senior Pass and Access Pass ________.‎ ‎ A. are valid for a lifetime ‎ B.charge the holder for delivery ‎ C. provide a discount on camping fees D. are intended for the elderly with disabilities C The Children’s Book-show Competition is a chance for young readers to be writers.‎ Reading, it seems, is coming back into fashion, if a survey by the famous National Literacy Trust (the NLT) is true. It shows that the percentage of children who admit enjoying reading has grown for the first time in the past 8 years.‎ So it’s a good time to launch a competition that includes a shed-load of new books for schools as prizes. The Children’s Book-show Competition, backed by The Independent, is taking to the roads again from the start of next term, with a nation-wide tour of 15 big cities, featuring a line-up of a dozen children’s writers and illustrators ‎(插图画家)aiming to persuade pupils to follow their footsteps.‎ The competition, launched by the children’s writer and illustrator Jessica Souhami, has two categories: the under-nine’s and nine to 13-year-olds.‎ Children are asked to choose their favorite fairy or folk tale and set it in an extraordinary place.‎ Then they are to retell it with the aid of drawings and writings —whether it is set at sea, on a distant planet, in the future or in the past. The closing date for the competition is 30 November.‎ ‎“Tell your tale in pictures and in words,”say the organizers of the competition. “It can be in a picture book or comic-book format.”‎ The winner of each competition will receive a signed copy of a book by each of the 12 authors involved in this year’s tour, plus £150 worth of books for their school. The runners-up will receive a signed copy of Souhami’s new book.‎ ‎28. What can we know about the Book-show Competition?‎ A. It will be held by the famous NLT. ‎ B. It has never been organized before.‎ C. It will be held in different cities. ‎ D. Children of all ages will join in it.‎ ‎29. The underlined word “backed” in Paragraph 3 means_______.‎ A. started B. promoted C. reported D. supported ‎30. What will be offered as a prize to schools? ‎ A. Books worth £150 in all. ‎ B. Pictures and comic books C. Books signed by 12 authors. ‎ D. Jessica Souhami’s new books.‎ ‎31. The author’s purpose of writing this passage is to _______.‎ A. encourage young readers to become writers B. persuade all children to join in the competition C. promote children’s books by famous writers D. introduce a book-show competition to children D Just before summer, a serious accident occurred on U.S. Highway 31, killing a man driving a motorcycle. ‎ It’s reported that a car driven by a teenager traveling north changed direction across the highway and struck a motorcycle rider traveling south. The rider, Jay Kendall, served as postmaster and owned a local business. Immediate reports stated the use of a cell phone was the reason for the deadly accident. ‎ The death of Kendall led to a rally (集会) organized by Kendall’s wife aimed at raising awareness about the dangers of texting and driving. ‎ The dangers are very real. ‎ Police officers across the country have witnessed many texting-related accidents. The attention it takes to read or write a text while driving is just enough time to turn off the road or into the path of another vehicle. The results are often deadly. Yet, motorists continue to grasp their cell phones while they drive. ‎ Laws concerning texting and driving are weak. In Alabama, very little punishment faces an offender (违法者). For officers, spotting a driver texting can be difficult, but it’s certainly not impossible. Motorists who avoid texting behind the wheel often report seeing multiple drivers texting while speeding along a highway or city street. ‎ Many reasonable people agree that texting and driving is dangerous, but they also find themselves reading a message while driving. ‎ Education would behelpful in convincing people to leave their phones alone while they drive. But even more effective would be laws that bite when offenses are recorded. ‎ Years ago, lawmakers were hesitant to toughen laws concerning driving while under the influence of alcohol (酒). Increasing accidents on the highways finally convinced lawmakers to make the laws more effective. The same tough approach is needed for texting and driving. Evidence of the deadlines of such risky behavior has become all too clear. ‎ ‎32. How did the traffic accident on U.S. Highway 31 happen? ‎ A. The car driver wasn’t skilled. ‎ B. The car driver wasn’t paying attention. ‎ C. The motorcyclist was using a cell phone. ‎ D. The motorcyclist changed direction suddenly. ‎ ‎33. Why is it hard to put an end to texting and driving? ‎ A. Few people are aware of the problem. ‎ B. There are no laws against texting and driving. ‎ C. Punishment for texting and driving is mild. ‎ D. It’s difficult for police officers to find offenders. ‎ ‎34. In the author’s opinion, to stop texting and driving by education seems _______. ‎ A. helpless B. slow C. costly D. troublesome ‎ ‎35. The author mentions laws concerning drinking and driving to show that _______. ‎ A. tough laws are necessary B. texting and driving is risky ‎ C. lawmakers are irresponsible D. drivers behave badly these days 第二节  语篇理解（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。‎ My mother is a diligent and kind woman.
