The conductor hurried to give her a warm wele and then kindly asked the other passengers to make more room for the woman and her child. On seeing this, people began to talk. You know this conductor used to be very rude. Now suddenly he has changed his bad behavior , said a middle-aged man.Yes, he should be praised and we must write a letter to the pany, said a second passenger. Thats right, another lady said, I wish a newspaper reporter were here so that more people could learn from this conductor. Just then a gentleman who looked like a teacher turned to the conductor and said , Excuse me, but can I know your name, please? Your excellent service must be praised.Before he could open his mouth, the three-year-old child sitting on the young womans lap interrupted, I know his name. I call him Dad.46.

The word he in the last paragraph refers to _.A. the gentleman B. the conductorC. the middle-aged man D. the three-year-old child50. It is clear from the story that the conductor _.A. has changed his attitude towards his workB. has now been kind and polite to all passengersC. has not changed his rude behavior to passengersD. has now been kind and polite to women with childrenBHave you ever been afraid to talk back when you were treated unfairly? Have you ever bought something just because the salesman talked you into it? Many people are afraid to support themselves. Dr Robert Albert, author of Stand Up, Speak Out, and Talk Back thinks it s because their self-respect is low. Theres always a superior around- parent, a teacher, a boss-who knows better.But Albert and other scientists are doing something to help people help themselves. They offer assertiveness training courses A.T. for short. In the A.T. Course people learn that they have a right to be themselves. They learn to speak out and feel good about doing so. They learn to be aggressive without hurting other people.In one way, learning to speak out is to get rid of fear. A group taking an A.T. Course will help the timid person to lose his fear. But A.T. uses an even stronger motive- he need to share. The timid person speaks out in the group because he wants to tell how he feels. Whether or not you speak up for yourself depends on your self-respect. If someone you face is more important than you, you may feel less of a person. You start to doubt your answers to problems. You can get to feel good about yourself. And once you do you can learn to speak out.51. The problem the writer talks about is that _.A. some people buy things they dont wantB. some people are afraid to speak out for their rightsC. there are too many superiorsD. some people dont think enough of themselves52. The cause of the problem talked about in this passage is that _.A. some people have a low self-respectB. there is always someone around who knows betterC. salesmen talk people into buying things they dont wantD. people don t share enough53. The A.T. Course often _.A. make people distrust their own answersB. make things more favorable for superiorsC. help people know as much as their superiorsD. help people bee more important54. One thing the A.T. Course dont do is to _.A. share the need of peopleB. show they have a right to be themselvesC. help people overe fearD. help people to help themselves even if others suffer55.A good title for this passage could be _.A. The Need to Share B. Talk Back When NecessaryC. One Way to Build Self-Respect D. One Way to Train Speaking AbilityCGeorge Washington Carver and Thomas Alva Edison were American scientists who were born during the nineteenth century. Caver, who was black, was born in Missouri in 1864.Although his parents were slaves, he was able to get a college education. After he graduated from Iowa State College, he developed many important new methods of farming. He also discovered many new uses for farming products. His discovery included three hundred uses for peanut and two hundred uses for sweet potatoes. Edison, who was born in Ohio in 1847, was not a good student when he was a young boy, so his parents took him out of school and his mother educated him at home.Although he hated school, he loved science. One day he burnt down a barn (车房) while he was doing a scientific experiment. Most people know what a great scientist Edison became. His six thousand inventions included the electric light bulb.56.

The “foolish” taxi driversE. The Finnish society with high moral levelF. The “foolish” diners61.If you have a chance to go to Finland, you will probably be surprised to find how “foolish” the Finnish people are.62.Take the taxi drivers for example. Taxis in Finland are mostly high-class Benz with a fare(车费) of two US dollars a kilometer. You can go anywhere in one, tell the driver to drop you at any place, say that you have some business to attend to, and then walk off without paying your fare. The driver would not show the least sign of anxiety.63.The dining rooms in all big hotels not only serve their guests, but also serve outside diners. Hotel guests have their meals free, so they naturally go to the free dining rooms to have their meals. The most they would do to show their good faith is to wave their registration（登记）card to the waiter. With such a loose check, you can easily use any old registration card to take a couple of friends to dine free of charge.64.The Finnish workers are paid by the hour. They are very much on their own as soon as they have agreed with the boss on the rate. From then on they just say how many hours they have worked and they will be paid accordingly.65.With so many loopholes（漏洞）in everyday life, surely Finland must be a heaven to those who love to take “petty advantages”. But the strange thing is, all the taxi passengers would always e back to pay their fare after they have attended to their business; not a single outsider has ever been found in the free hotel dining rooms. And workers always give an honest account of the exact hours they put in. As the Finns always act on good faith in everything they do, living in such a society has turned everyone into a real “gentleman”.第II卷（选择题 共55分）第三部分： 写作（共三节，满分55分）第一节 单词拼写（共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分）根据下列各句句意和空白之后的汉语提示词，在答题卡指定区域的横线上写出对应单词的正确、完整形式，每空只写一词。66.

While going there I told her the great change that had taken place in our country in the past few years but Alice told us a lot about the youth in America.
