I need to beat the top students, preferably in_19_. Ive even got so far as to define myself by my _20_， saying that how _21_ I am. If I dont get the grade I _22_， then I am lost. Today I was sitting in class trying to _23_ the last minutes to study for a test I had to get full marks. _24_ the girl behind me started talking to me, I tried to listen _25_ while still glancing at my study sheet now and then. When I thought the _26_ required it, I smiled, _27_and agreed. And then I found myself wishing she would be _28_ so I could study. After a while, she said, “You know, youre a really good _29_. Youre so easy to talk to.” I froze. I replayed the _30_ in my head before smiling and accepting it gladly. But inside, I knew it wasnt true. Shed made every effort to have a conversation and I wasnt even trying to _31_. I passed the test excellently _32_ my worry of lost study time, but the one thing I needed to learn most wasnt on that test.

Although my thoughts were only on speed, the checkout line I was standing in wasnt moving as quickly as I wanted, and I glanced toward the cashier. There stood a man in his seventies, wearing glasses and a nice smile. I thought, well, hes an old guy!For the next few minutes I watched him. He greeted every customer before scanning the items. Sure, his words were the usual, “Hows it going？” But he did something differenthe actually listened to people. Then he would respond to what they had said and engage them in brief conversation. I thought it was odd. I has grown accustomed to people asking me how I was doing simply out of robotic conversational habit. After a while, you dont give any thought to the question and just mumble something back. I could say, “I just found out I have six months to live，” and someone would reply, “Have a great day！”But that wasnt the end. He gave them the change, walked around the counter, and extended his right hand in an act of friendship. He looked the customers in the eyes. “I sure want to thank you for shopping here today，” he told them. “You have a great day. Byebye.”The looks on the faces of the customers were priceless. There were smiles and some sheepish grins. All had been touched by his simple gestureand in a place they never expected. They would gather their things and walk out, smiling. Of course, he did the same to me and I got to know his nameMarty. Who was that guy? It was as if Sam Walton had come back from the dead and invaded this old guys body. I had never walked away from that shop feeling like that.36The checkout line the writer was standing in moved slower than expected because _Athe cashier couldnt work as fast as othersBthere were some big purchasesCthe cashier did more than scanning the itemsDthe writer was not patient enough37According to the writer, when common people ask you “Hows it going？” _Athey dont really care what you may answerBthey are just practicing their conversation abilityCthey are inquiring about your private informationDthey dont expect to hear any negative answers38What can we infer about Sam Walton?AHe might be Martys father or grandfather.BHe might be friendly and devoted to WalMart.CHe might have died while working in the market.DHe might have come back from the dead once before.39What does the writer intend to express through the text?AOur everyday life is always full of surprises.BMost customers enjoy being treated this way.CBeing different is a good way of doing business.DA little positive action can make a big difference.BAlthough the United States covers so much land and the land produces far more food than the present population needs, its people are by now almost entirely an urban society. Less than a tenth of the people are engaged in agriculture and forestry(林业), and most of the rest live in or around towns, small and large. Here the traditional picture is changing：every small town may still be very like other small towns, and the typical small town may represent a widely accepted view of the country, but most Americans do not live in small towns any more. Half the population now lives in some thirty metropolitan areas(large cities with their suburbs, of more than a million people eacha larger proportion than in Germany or England, let alone France). The statistics(统计数据)of urban and rural population should be treated with caution because so many people who live in areas classified as rural travel by car to work in a nearby town each day. As the rush to live out of town continues, rural areas within reach of towns are gradually filled with houses, so that it is hard to say at what moment a piece of country becomes a suburb. But more and more typical Americans live in a metropolitan rather than a small town environment.40If now America has 250 million people, how many of them are engaged in agriculture and forestry?AAbout 25 million. BMore than 25 million.CLess than 25 million. DLess than 225 million.41Which of the following four countries has the smallest proportion of people living in metropolitan areas?AUnited States. BGermany.CFrance. DEngland.42Whats the meaning of the underlined word “metropolitan”？AOf a large city with its suburbs. BOf small and large towns.COf urban areas. DOf rural areas.43According to the passage, what can we learn about small towns in the United States?AMost small towns become gradually crowded.BSmall towns are still similar to each other.CAs the traditional picture is changing, towns are different.DSmall towns are turning into large cities.CThe African elephant, the largest land animal remaining on earth, is of great importance to African ecosystem (生态系统). Unlike other animals, the African elephant is to a great extent the builder of its environment. As a big planteater, it largely shapes the forestandsavanna (稀树草原) surroundings in which it lives, therefore setting_the_terms of existence for millions of other animals that live in its habitat.It is the elephants great desire for food that makes it a disturber of the environment and an important builder of its habitat. In its continuous search for the 300 pounds of plants it must have every day, it kills small trees and underbushes, and pulls branches off big trees. This results in numerous open spaces in both deep tropical forests and in the woodlands that cover part of the African savannas. In these open spaces are numerous plants in various stages of growth that attract a variety of other planteaters.Take the rain forests for example. In their natural state, the spreading branches overhead shut out sunlight and prevent the growth of plants on the forest floor. By pulling down trees and eating plants, elephants make open spaces, allowing new plants to grow on the forest floor. In such situations, the forests become suitable for large hoofed planteaters to move around and for small planteaters to get their food as well.What worries scientists now is that the African elephant has become an endangered species. If the elephant disappears, scientists say, many other animals will also disappear from vast areas of forest and savanna, greatly changing and worsening the whole ecosystem.44What is the passage mainly about?ADisappearance of African elephants.BForests and savannas as habitats for African elephants.CThe effect of African elephants search for food.DThe eating habit of African elephants.45What does the underlined phrase “setting the terms” most probably mean?AFixing the time. BWorsening the state.CImproving the quality. DDeciding the conditions.46What do we know about the open spaces in the passage?AThey result from the destruction of rain forests.BThey provide food mainly for African elephants.CThey are home to many endangered animals.DThey are attractive to planteating animals of different kinds.DFind a quiet location. Keep a routine. Focus on one subject at a time. It all seems like sound advice for students who need to hit the books, but recent studies indicate the conventional wisdom is all wrong.Heres a list of tips from Carey, a scientist, for getting the most out of your study time：Test yourself：Doing practice quizzes can help you retrieve information on test day. “Tests have a very bad reputation as a measurement tool，” Carey says. But psychologists have found selftests slow down the forgetting of material youve studied. “If you study something once, and then you test yourself on it，” Carey says, “you do better than if you study it two times over.”Move around：Changing up where you study can help you retain more information. “If you move around and study the same material in several places，” he says, “you may be formingmultiple associations for the same material, the same words and so on. So its better anchored in your brain, and you can pull it out easier.”Mix it up：Think about a football player who does strength training, speed training and drills. Carey says alternating between different facets of a subject in a single sitting can “leave a deeper impression on the brain”. For example, when studying French, do some verbs, some speaking and some reading. Spending your time in deep concentration on just verbs, say, isnt as effective.Space it out：Information learned in a hurry is lost just as fast. Carey likens cramming your brain to speedpacking a cheap suitcaseit all falls out. So if you really want to learn, space out shorter, hourlong study sessions. “Theres no doubt you can cram your way through an exam，” Carey says. The problem is that its so easy to forget what you just crammedand once its gone, Carey says, “its gone. Youre not getting it back.”Of course, nothing can replace the power of motivation and discipline. But Carey says the overall message is encouraging：“Studying can sort of be incorporated into a more varied life, much more easily than we thought.”47According to the text, the best way to learn is _Ato learn ones subject at a time in a quiet placeBto be strongly motivated to learn somethingCto mix up everything that you will learnDto do selftests after you learn immediately48How did the writer develop the fifth paragraph?ABy telling an interesting story. BBy presenting in the time order.CBy analyzing cause and effect. DBy making a comparison.49Why did the author write the passage?ATo present some new advice on learning.BTo introduce some traditional wisdom.CTo explain some phenomena of studying.DTo list some views on reading books.50It can be inferred from what Carey said in the third paragraph that _Atests used to be treated as a tool to judge learnersBtests would give you a way to measure yourselfCtests were the best way to learn new informationDtests do good to you more than learning itself第二节(共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分)根据短文内容，从短文后的七个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。Love and friendship Both are so much related to each other. And both are so different! What are the differences between friendship and love? Is pure friendship possible between persons of opposite sex? _51_52_ Why do we call a person our friend? When do we call someone a very good friend? If we care for a person, if we are always ready to help that person and if we share most of our thoughts with a person, he/she is our good friend. We can always count upon our good friends in an emergency. We are always sure that our friends will understand why we acted in a certain way._53_ The friendship is so deep and the relationship is so reliable, that most of the things are automatically understood by our friends.What about love? In a relationship of deep love, all the sharing that we discussed above are taken for granted. But love goes beyond all this. During love, we are attached with a particular person, while in friendship, one may have many friends. _54_ So one gets pained if his/her beloved is hurt! Love also involves a physical element. Friendship does not have that. This is a vital difference. Nature gives us love so that the species can go forward. Nature does not give us friendship.Your heart beats will never increase in expectation of meeting your friend. You will not lie awake at night thinking about your friend. You will not feel totally lost, if you dont meet your friend for a few days. You will not have dreams in your eyes thinking about your friend. But in love, you will do all these and much more. _55_A. We need not explain anything to our very good friends.B. There is no doubt that our friends will rely on us.C. Let us try and understand.D. Wed better lay more emphasis on either of them.E. What is friendship?F. A loving relationship makes one much attached to the other.G. Indeed, there is no comparison between love and friendship.第卷第三部分写作(共两节，满分35分)第一节情景作文(20分)假设你是某中学生英语报的小记者；以下漫画内容是你的所见所闻，请根据要求写一篇英语短文投稿。内容要求：1描述漫画内容；2.发表个人感想。注意：1. 短文标题与开头已给出，不计入总词数；2. 考生可适当发挥，使文章内容充实、连贯；3. 词数不少于60；4. 文中不能出现考生的具体信息。 参考词汇：告示牌signMind Your Behavior in Public PlacesLast Sunday, I went sightseeing with my friends in the Fairy Lake Park._第二节开放作文(15分)请根据下面提示，写一篇短文。词数不少于50。In your spoken English class, your teacher shows you the following picture.
