Our task was to deliver as many boxes of food as possible to those in need in Camden, New Jersey. There were no Christmas carolers(唱颂歌的人) walking in these streets that were lined with boarded-up(用木板封住的) houses and broken windows. Mothers kept their children close as they hurried down in the streets. It was mid-afternoon, but the bright sun couldnt warm the place.Red tickets in the windows marked which houses we were to visit. Our white truck stopped in front of one house and our group knocked on the door. Our arms were filled with ham, bread and other essentials to make the perfect Christmas dinner. Four small faces glanced through the curtains and one exhausted mom answered the door. She seemed embarrassed to be caught in her nightgown(睡衣) with undone hair. She was in her late-20s, but her rough skin and tired eyes added years.“Sacred Heart food deliver service,” I smiled. “ Where can we put this for you? ”She pointed to a place and as we entered the house, I noticed the conditions of the house they lived in. The children climbed around, wearing only diapers(尿布). There were no carpets, only cold concrete beneath our feet. There was no Christmas tree or decorations. My heart sank. It was so cold, and I found it hard to believe that this was the reality for this family. We set boxes down and the mother grabbed my hand.“You dont know how much of a blessing this is to me and my family,” she said, crying. “We are just getting by.” I opened my arms and gave her a hug.“Happy holidays！”I replied before I headed out the door. I realized how warm I felt inside.This was unlike anything I had ever experienced. We cannot help what family we are born into, but we can help each other. 61.

The new terms include weixin, or WeChat etc. There are also some older words recently used again and repurposed for contemporary (当代的) use, such as tuhao. Commonly used in the 1930s to refer to local persons who are rich but cruel, tuhao today laughs at a new privileged class that has appeared in China: people who are “extremely wealthy but lacking in education or values.” But why did weixin and tuhao make the cut, while other popular terms were shut out? Not admitted to the new edition were such words as diaosi, shengnü, and baifumei.Li Xingjian, the chief editor of the dictionary, said about 30 language experts worked for more than three years to select the new terms. They took into account three main considerations: whether the term has entered public topic, whether the use of the term has become stable and whether the term meets a minimum level of tastefulness.“We considered and discussed a huge list,” Mr. Li said . “A term like diaosi is not very tasteful, and its unlikely to be used for much longer. And shengnü, we thought it wasnt that significant. Its used a lot by young people online, but otherwise people dont really use it.”“On the other hand, tuhao has always been around. It has a mocking(嘲弄的) meaning, but its not necessarily negative,” he said. “We think itll stay around for a while, because in real life there really are these kinds of people and therefore a need to describe them.”The Dictionary of Modern Standard Chinese, first published in 2004, is appreciated especially by scholars and those interested in contemporary usage. But it is not the first reference dictionary in China. That honor still goes to the New China Character Dictionary and the Contemporary Chinese Dictionary. Every five years, the Dictionary of Modern Standard Chinese is revised, with outdated words dropped to make room for new ones.66. What does the underlined words phrase “make the cut” in Paragraph 2 mean? A. Select B. Exclude C. Replace D. Explain67. How many aspects were taken into consideration to choose the new terms for the dictionary?A. 2 B. 3 C. 4 D. 568. Why was shengnü not chosen into the new Dictionary of Modern Standard Chinese?A. Because it is never used in their daily life. B. Because it is not popular on the Internet these days. C. Because it is neither tasteful nor likely to endure long. D. Because it is not so important and is mainly used online by young people.69. Which is NOT True according to the passage? A. The Dictionary of Modern Standard Chinese was first published in 2004.B. The Dictionary of Modern Standard Chinese is the first reference dictionary.C. The term tuhao will exist for some time. D. About 30 language experts worked for over three years to choose the new terms. 70. What is the main idea of the passage?A. Every five years, the Dictionary of Modern Standard Chinese is revised. B. People think differently about the newly chosen terms.C. Many new terms were chosen into the Dictionary of Modern Standard Chinese.D. The language experts think highly of newly chosen terms.Part Writing (45 marks)Section A (10 marks) Directions: Read the following passage.
