My father was very ill then, and my mother took in sewing(缝纫) of any kind so we could live. She would sew far into the night with an old sewing machine. She never complained even when the food would be very scarce(稀少).‎ Things were very bad that winter. Then a letter came from where her sewing machine was bought, saying that they would have to pick up her machine the next day unless payments were brought up to date. I remember when she read the letter I became frightened; I could picture us starving to death and all sorts of things that could come to a child's mind. My mother did not appear to be worried. However, she seemed to be quite calm about the matter. She said God would not disappoint her. I couldn’t see how God was going to help us keep this old sewing machine.‎ The day when the men came for our machine arrived. There was a knock at the kitchen door. I was frightened as a child would be, for I was sure it was those men who would take away our sewing machine. Instead, a nicely dressed man stood at our door with a darling baby in his arms.‎ He asked my mother if she was Mrs. Hill. When she said she was, he said, "I’m in trouble this morning and you have been recommended（推荐)by the neighbors as an honest and wonderful woman. My wife was rushed to the hospital this morning, and since we have no relatives here, and I must open my dentist office, I have nowhere to leave my baby. Could you possibly take care of her for a few days?" He continued, "I will pay you in advance." With this he took out ten dollars and gave it to my mother.‎ Mother said, "Yes, yes, I will be glad to do so," and took the baby from his arms. When the man left, my mother turned to me with tears streaming down a face that looked as though a light was shining on it. She said, "I knew God would never let them take away my machine."‎ ‎24. The turning point in the story may refer to ______.‎ A. a letter to the family B. the man’s coming for help C. the man’s wife being rushed to the hospital D. the man’s trouble ‎25. Why did the man turn to the writer’s mother for help?‎ A. The people around him recommended the mother to him.‎ B. He was familiar with the mother.‎ C. The mother had sewn for him.‎ D. The mother was hired by the man.‎ ‎26. According to the text all the following are true to the man EXCEPT _____.‎ A. his wife stayed in hospital B. he was a dentist C. he had no relatives here to turn to for help D. he came for our sewing machine C As is often the case, parents are very shocked to discover their children have lied to them for the first time. But new research has suggested many parents may not even notice many of the lies their children tell them.‎ Psychologists have discovered that most parents are over-confident in their children’s honesty and this may impair their ability to discover a lie.‎ The findings may help to explain why some parents seem to be willing to let their children get away with almost anything even in the face of the evidence. They say parents suffer from a “truth bias(偏见)” with their own youngsters, but when faced with lies from other people’s children, they have less difficulty telling if a statement is true or not.‎ Dr Angela Evans, a psychologist at Brock University in Canada, said, “The close relationship that parents share with their own children may lead to parents failing to detect their children’s lies. Parents’ truth bias may result in parents being less suspicious of their children, allowing them to successfully cheat them.”‎ Most children are thought to start lying as early as two years old but start telling more believable lies at around the age of four years old. Learning how to lie is considered as a key part of cognitive(认知的) and social development in children. But many parents are shocked when their children start lying to them. In their study, Dr Evans and her colleagues filmed 108 children aged between 8 and 16 as they performed a test after being asked not to look at the answers. They were then asked afterwards if they had looked, with 50 truthfully denying looking, 49 lying about looking and 9 admitting to looking.‎ Videos of those denying looking were then shown to 152 parents of children aged 8 to 16, 80 of whom had children who had taken part in the test. The researchers found that the parents were less able to spot lies told by their own children than by other people’s children.‎ ‎27. What does the underlined word “impair” in Paragraph 2 mean?‎ A．Show. B．Develop. C．Recognize. D．Damage.‎ ‎28.When lying to their parents, children can’t be easily found because ________.‎ A．their parents aren’t prepared for the lies B．their parents can’t notice any of their lies C．they are very good at hiding their lies D．they know how to lie to their parents ‎29. What does Dr Evans want to find about children’s lying?‎ A．What makes parents lose trust in their children.‎ B．What causes children to tell lies to their parents.‎ C．What makes parents fail to see their children’s lies.‎ D．What affects children’s relations with their parents.‎ ‎30. What can be inferred from Dr Evans’s study in the last two paragraphs?‎ A．Parents tend to protect their own children.‎ B．Lying is a part of children’s development.‎ C．Children aged 8 to 16 are very likely to tell lies.‎ D．Parents can easily judge lies told by children of others.‎ 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。‎ When you step into a new environment, you must have a strong wish to fit in. Fitting in means making more friends, having more influence on others and getting more chances to live a happier life. 31.____________‎ Be confident. Confidence attracts most people. Everyone is special and there is only one person like you in this world. Spend some time thinking about your strong points. 32.__________ You won't have much difficulty fitting in.‎ Be kind to everyone. Kindness is the bridge to your own happiness.

They always played together and went home together. One day Robert and Henry were going home from school, when, on turning a corner, Robert cried out, “A fight! Let’s go and see!”‎ ‎“No,” said Henry. “Let us go quietly home and not meddle with(插手) this quarrel. We have nothing to do with it and may get into mischief(trouble). Also our parents are expecting to have dinner with us together at home and I don’t want them to worry about me. ”‎ ‎“You are a coward, and afraid to go,” said Robert, and off he ran. Henry went straight home, and in the afternoon went to school as usual.‎ But Robert had told all the boys that Henry was a coward, and they laughed at him a great deal. From then on, they looked down upon Henry and didn’t want to play with him together.‎ Henry was sad but he wasn’t angry with Robert for his rude behavior, because he learned that true courage is shown most in bearing misunderstanding when it was not deserved, and that he ought to be afraid of nothing but doing wrong. Thus, he just ignored the other boys’ laughter and continued to go to school and study as well. However, Robert didn’t invite Henry to go home with him anymore. Instead, he had some other boys who also thought Henry was a coward. Every day after school, they didn’t go home directly but went to the river or somewhere to play games and had a lot of fun.‎ A few days later, Robert was bathing with his new friends in a river, and got out of his depth. He struggled, and screamed for help, but all in vain. The boys who had called Henry a coward got out of the water as fast as they could, but they did not even try to help him.‎ 注意:‎ ‎1.所续写短文的词数应为150左右；‎ ‎2.应使用5个以上短文中标有下划线的关键词语；‎ ‎3.续写部分分为两段，每段的开头语已为你写好；‎ ‎4.续写完成后，请用下划线标出你所使用的关键词语。‎ Paragraph 1:‎ Robert was fast sinking._______________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________________________________‎ Paragraph 2:‎ Thus, Robert’s life was saved.__________________________________________________‎ ‎___________________________________________________________________________________________________‎ 第二节 应用文写作（满分15分）‎ 假定你是李华，你的加拿大朋友Lily对中国的端午节很感兴趣，发邮件问你有关端午节的情况，请你给她回一封邮件，内容包括：‎ ‎1.邀请她来中国过端午节 2.端午节的时间：农历五月初五 ‎3.节日的由来 4.庆祝方式 注意：1.词数100左右 2.可以适当增加细节，以使行文连贯。‎ 参考词汇： zongzi 粽子 ‎___________________________________________________________________________‎ ‎【参考答案】‎ 听力 ‎1～5 CCACB 6～10 BCABC 11～15 CBABB 16～20 BCAAC 阅读理解 ‎21-23 DCC 24-27 BAD 27~30 DACD 36-40 CDEFB 完形填空 ‎36-40 BBACB 41-45 AADBD 46-50 CACBC 51-55 DBDDC 语法填空 56. that 57.regularly 58.is 59.to become 60.it ‎ ‎61.that 62.peaceful 63.to concentrate 64.of 65.tired 五、读后续写 Robert was fast sinking. It seemed as if Robert would be drowned. Just at the moment, Henry happened to be passing by. Hearing the screams, Henry ran to the riverside, threw off his clothes and jumped into the water without hesitation. He reached Robert just as he was sinking the last time. By great effort, and with much danger to himself, he brought Robert to the shore.‎ Thus, Robert’s life was saved. Robert and his new friends were ashamed at having called Henry a coward. They realized that Henry had true courage. They said sorry to Henry for their rude behavior and asked for his forgiveness. Henry forgave them happily. He and Robert were friends again and they went home together as usual. From this, Robert learned what true courage was: never be afraid to do good, but always fear to do evil.‎ 六、写作 Dear Lily,‎ Knowing that you are interested in the Dragon Boat Festival, I am writing to invite you to spend it with me in China. Then, I will tell you something about it so that you can arrange your trip accordingly.‎ The Dragon Boat Festival falls on May the 5th of Chinese lunar year, when it may be a bit hot. So remember to pack some summer clothes and sunscreen cream. This Festival is observed to honor Quyuan, a great patriotic poet in ancient China, who committed his death by drowning himself in a river to show his loyalty. In order to remember him, dragon boat races are held across ‎ China, which are usually very exciting. Eating a special food called zongzi is another way to celebrate the festival.‎ I can't wait to meet you in China and you will enjoy every part of the great festival!‎ Sincerely,‎ Li Hua
