The one who can use English to municate (B)Some people are lucky enough to be born with a good sense of direction and even if they have only visited a place once, they will be able to find it again years later.I am one of those unfortunate people who have poor sense of direction and I may have visited a place time after time but I still get lost on my way there. When I was young I was so shy that I never dared ask plete strangers the way and so I used to wander round in circles and hope that by some chance I would get to the spot I was heading for.I am no longer too shy to ask people for direction, but I often receive replies that puzzle me. Often people do not like to admit that they didnt know their hometown and will insist on telling you the way, even if they do not know it; others, who are anxious to prove that they know their hometown very well, will give you a long list of directions which you cannot possibly hope to remember, and still others do not seem to be able to tell between their left and their right and you find in the end that you are going in the opposite direction to that in which you should be going.If anyone ever asks me the way to somewhere, I always tell them I am a stranger to the town in order to avoid giving them wrong direction but even this can have embarrassing results.Once I was on my way to work when I was stopped by a man who asked me if I would direct him the way to the Sunlight Building. I gave my usual reply, but I had not walked on a few steps when I realized that he had asked for directions to my office building. However, at this point, I decided it was too late to turn back and search for him out of the crowd behind me as I was going to meet with someone at the office and I did not want to keep him waiting.Imagine my embarrassment when my secretary showed in the very man who had asked for directions of my office and his astonishment when he recognized me as the person he had asked.25. What is the writer going to do when someone asks him for direction?A. He will direct the right way to the person willingly.B. He will reply to it by the means of being a stranger to the town.C. He will give the very person long list of direction.D. He is going to show the man an opposite direction.26. Why did the writer consider himself to be an unlucky dog?A. Because of his poor sense of direction.B. Because he always forgot the way home.C. Because he did not have any friend.D. Because he used to be shy and dared not ask others the way.27. How did the visitor feel when he was showed into the very room?A. He felt strange. B. He felt embarrassed.C. He felt very sad. D. He felt astonished.28. Who showed the right way to the interviewee according to the passage?A. Someone we dont know.B. The writer did it for himself.C. The secretary did so.D. A warm-hearted old lady did such a thing (C)OF course, Ms Cratty wasnt really my aunt and, out of fear, I never called her that to her face. I only called her “My Aunt Fannie (俚语)” because the name always made my father chuckle (轻声地笑) and caused my mother to look seriously at both of us at me for being disrespectful of my elder, and at my father for encouraging my bad behavior. I enjoyed both reactions so I looked for every opportunity to work the name into as many conversations as possible.As a young woman, my mother had worked in the kitchen of a large farmhouse owned by Ms Cratty and her twin brother. Neither had married, and they had no children. My father once told me that it was because they were both too mean to share their familys money or pass it on. Ms Cratty was famous for her jam and for never sharing the recipe with another one. Even though my mother knew the recipe , she never made the jam without Ms Cratty kitchen to direct the process and keep the secret.Each August, my mother would prepare me for Aunt Fannies visit. One year, after I had been particularly helpful with the jam process Aunt Fannie gave me a quarter and then made me promise that I would never spend it. “Hold onto this quarter,” she said, “and someday you will be rich. I still have my very first quarter, given to me by my grandfather.” It had obviously worked for her. So, I put the quarter in my dresser drawer, and waited to bee rich.I now have the jam recipe and the quarter from Aunt Fannie. Neither has made me wealthy, but I keep them as reminders to hold onto the valuable things in life. Money can make you feel rich for a while, but it is the relationships and the memories of time spent with friends and family that truly leave you wealthy. And that is a fortune that anyone can build.29.Why did the author prefer to call Aunt Fannie “My Aunt Fannie”?A. Because she wanted to show respect for her.B. Because she believed that made her seem closer to her.C. Because she loved to see her parents responses to it.D. Because she didnt like her and thus made fun of her.30.According to the second paragraph, the authors mother _.A. owned the large farmhouse with Aunt FannieB. disliked Aunt Fannies meanness and the way she would never shareC. didnt know the exact way to make the jamD. tried to make Aunt Fannie believe that the secret recipe was safe31.The author used to believe that the quarter given to her by Aunt Fannie _.A. was a reminder of the valuable things in her lifeB. would bring her good luck and make her richC. was a small reward for her help with the jam processD. was the exact one that Aunt Fannie had received from her grandfather32.The author thinks that we can feel wealthy if we _.A. have a certain secret recipeB. have lasting love and friendshipC. share our wealth with othersD. have good fortune and money (D)Worried about how many calories you will get in that piece of pizza, chocolate cake or bag of chips? A new iPhone application (应用程序) MealSnap may help. Users just need to take a picture of the meal with the phone, and it will give a calorie read-out almost immediately. MealSnap was developed by DailyBurn, a health social network that focuses on helping its users lead healthier lifestyles. It has created several other health and diet-related iPhone applications. The application gives users a quick reply. To do that, it matches the taken picture to a databank (数据库) with the calorie information of nearly 500,000 kinds of food. Users then get the range of calories for the meal that is photographed. We started with something simplean apple. A couple of minutes later, the application replied that it was an apple and between 64 and 96 calories. More impressive was the reply we received after sending a photo of a mixed salad bowl. MealSnap replied that the bowl contained “yellow rice with corn, boiled eggs and beans” and that the food was between 532 and 789 calories. Mr. Smith, director of DailyBurn, said that usual calorie counting needed a long time, but that the application made it easier to know the calories in food. That is why it is so popular among those who are trying hard to lose weight. In addition, MealSnap can act as a food diary. No need to write down what theyve eaten, the photoes will be stored. The users can keep a visual log (视觉的记录). Mr. Smith said, “its like a food journey, but easier. All you do is to take the picture. The simple act of recording something can cause a psychological (心理的) change that can help people on their health journey. Knowing the calorie range makes me think more about what Im eating.” MealSnap is available on the iTunes for 1.79 or $2.99 in the US .33.The purpose of DailyBurn is to_.Ahelp people find ways to lose weightBmake iPhone more popularCpersuade people to buy iPhone productsDhelp people have a healthy life34.What can be learned from the third paragraph?AMealSnap is only useful for simple things.BThe result of MealSnap isnt always right.CMealSnap can also tell what the food is.DMealSnap needs a long time to show the calorie range.35. Which of the following statements about MealSnap is TRUE?AIt has been put into the market.BPeople will have a physical change by using it.CIts popular because it was developed by DailyBurn.DPeople have to link iPhone with the Internet to use 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入空白处的最佳选项。并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。选项中有两项为多余选项。In many ways, Hamburger University is just like other schools.
