With effort, we can translate passion into action. An experience last weekend showed me this is true. I work part-time in a supermarket across from a building for the elderly. These old people are our main customers, and its not hard to lose patience over their slowness. But last Sunday, one aged gentleman appeared to teach me a valuable lesson. This untidy man walked up to my register (收款机) with a box of biscuits. He said he was out of cash, had just moved into his room, and had nothing in his cupboards. He asked if we could let him have the food on trust. He promised to repay me the next day. I couldnt help staring at him. I wondered what kind of person he had been ten or twenty years before, and what he would be like if luck had gone his way. I had a hurt in my heart for this kind of human soul, all alone in the world. I told him that I was sorry, but store rules didnt allow me to do so. I felt stupid and unkind saying this, but I valued my job. Just then, another man, standing behind the first, spoke up. If anything, he looked more pitiable. “Charge it to me,” was all he said. What I had been feeling was pity. Pity is soft and safe and easy. passion, on the other hand, is caring in action. I thanked the second man but told him that was not allowed either. Then I reached into my pocket and paid for the biscuits myself. I reached into my pocket because these two men had reached into my heart and taught me passion.21. The aged gentleman who wanted to buy the biscuits _.A. promised to obey the store rulesB. forgot to take any money with himC. hoped to have the food first and pay later D. could not afford anything more expensive22. Which of the following best describes the old gentleman? A. kind and luckyB. poor and lonelyC. friendly and helpfulD. hurt and disappointed23. The writer acted upon the store rules because _.A. he wanted to keep his present jobB. he felt no pity for the old gentlemanC. he considered the old man dishonest D. he expected someone else to pay for the old man24. What does the writer learn from his experience? A. Wealth is more important than anything else.B. Helping others is easier said than done. C. Experience is better gained through practice. D. Obeying the rules means more than passion. BHere is an astonishing and significant fact: Mental work alone cant make us tired. It sounds absurd. But years ago, scientists tried to find out how long the human brain could labor without reaching a stage of fatigue (tiredness). To the amazement of these scientists, they discovered that blood passing through the brain, when it is active, shows no fatigue at all! If we took a drop of blood from a day laborer, we would find it full of fatigue toxins (毒素) and fatigue products. But if we took blood from the brain of an Albert Einstein, it would show no fatigue toxins at the end of the day.So far as the brain is concerned, it can work as well and swiftly at the end of eight or even twelve hours of effort as at the beginning. The brain is totally tireless. So what makes us tired?Some scientists declare that most of our fatigue es from our mental and emotional attitudes. One of Englands most outstanding scientists, J.A. Hadfield, says, “The greater part of the fatigue from which we suffer is of mental origin. In fact, fatigue of purely physical origin is rare.” Dr. Brill, a famous American scientist, goes even further. He declares, “One hundred percent of the fatigue of sitting worker in good health is due to emotional problems.”What kinds of emotions make sitting workers tired? Joy? Satisfaction? No! A feeling of being bored, anger, anxiety, tenseness, worry, a feeling of not being appreciatedthose are the emotions that tire sitting workers. Hard work by itself seldom causes fatigue. We get tired because our emotions produce nervousness in the body.25. What surprised the scientists a few years ago? A. Fatigue toxins could hardly be found in a laborers blood. B. Albert Einstein didnt feel worn after a days work. C. The brain could work for many hours without fatigue. D. A mental workers blood was filled with fatigue toxins.26. According to the author, which of the following can make sitting workers tired? A. Challenging mental work.B. Unpleasant emotions. C. Endless tasks.D. Physical labor.27. Whats the authors attitude towards the scientists idea? A. He agrees with them.B. He doubts them. C. He argues against them.D. He hesitates to accept them.28. We can infer from the passage that in order to stay energetic, sitting workers need to _.A. have some good foodB. enjoy their workC. exercise regularlyD. discover fatigue toxinsC The English writer Samuel Johnson famously said, “You find no man who is willing to leave London. No, sir, when a man is tired of London, he is tired of life, for there is in London all that life can afford.” More than two centuries have passed since Johnsons age, but his words still ring true. Here, youll find the historic Tower of London and the Tate Modern both considered must-sees. Shakespeares sonnets（十四行诗） are still being uttered by actors. Londoners most certainly still look up to the royals, but they also rock out to Coldplay and Lily Allen. And while they still sip tea, they now drink Starbucks, too.How to Save Money in LondonFind the free attractions. Many of Londons top things to do, including the National Gallery, Hyde Park and the Portobello Road Market, are absolutely free to enjoy.Ride the Tube. Taking taxis will add up quickly, so buy a pay-as-you-go Oyster Card and travel on Londons underground system, nicknamed the “Tube”.Dine smart. Corridors like Brick Lane offer fantastic cultural food for bargain prices; fish and chip shops are a cheap standby and takeaway food costs less than dine-in.London Culture & CustomsLondon is one of the fashion capitals of the world, and its residents tend to reflect that. Practically, pack an umbrella for the rainy days and a scarf for the cold ones. As for tipping, restaurants and cafes will usually add a 10-to-15-percent service charge to the bill. If a service charge is not allotted（指定）, its customary to tip the same (between 10 and 15 percent). If youre drinking at a pub or wine bar, tipping is flexible. And in a taxicab, tip the driver to the nearest pound or about 10 percent of the cost.London DiningLondon used to be highly criticized for its heavy and mon menu items. Now, London is considered as one of the most gourmet cities in the world. And with its melting pot of cultures, its not difficult to see why. London offers everything from modern British to Malaysian. For Indian food, we suggest visiting the curry houses on Brick Lane. If you want a real high tea experience, book reservations at the Ritz, at Fortnum & Mason, or at the Dorchester but be sure to dress the part. Pub culture is still alive and well, so if you have a hankering for fried fish and salty chips (or French fries), youll still find them here. And for a quick bite, exchange a few pounds for a kebab, a quick sandwich or some to go sushi, which can be found in restaurants throughout the city.29. What can we learn from the first paragraph?A. Life in London is exciting but tiring.B. Londoners are traditional and fashion conscious.C. Many well-known writers like to live in London.D. Coffee is more popular with Londoners than tea.30. The underlined word “hankering” in the last paragraph can be replaced by “_”.A. preparationB. respect C. desire D. talent31. In which column of a newspaper can we find the passage?A. Travel.B. Culture.C. Education.D. Entertainment. DTaking a shower is relaxing. You can hum a song, daydream or think about nothing, leaving the real world behind you. But did you know that showering can also benefit your mind? A research by Scott Barry Kaufman, a psychologist from Yale University in the US interviewed over 3,000 people around the world. It turned out that nearly two-thirds of the interviewees said they had experienced new ideas in the shower and were more likely to have them in the shower than at work. So why does a simple shower have such magic power? Science can explain it.Showering can help to raise our level of dopamine, a hormone (荷尔蒙) closely related to our creativity. “People vary in terms of their level of creativity according to the activity of dopamine”, explained Alice Flaherty, a famous American neuroscientist. “Taking a warm shower can make us feel relaxed and therefore make the dopamine level rise and bring Aha! moment to us.” Besides the chemical changes, showering may give you a break from what you feel you have been stuck with. Especially when you have thought hard all day about a problem, jumping into the shower can keep you from the outside world so that you can focus on your inner feelings and memories. In this way, according to American psychologist Shelley H. Carson, author of Your Creative Brain, “a showering hour may turn into an incubation (孵化) period for your ideas.” pared with sitting in front of a puter, taking a shower is something we do less frequently in our daily life. When showering, we get a fresh experience with the change of location, temperature and humidity. “New and unexpected experiences can lead to positive changes in thinking,” explained Kaufman. “Getting off the couch and jumping in the shower may create a distance and force you to think from a new point of view.” Showering allows us to enjoy the creative juices of our minds, but it neednt just be the bathroom where you get your inspiration. For instance, Gertrude Stein, a female American writer and poet, got new ideas by driving around a farm and stopping at different cows until she found the one that most inspired her. So try to create your own way to free your mind, whether its a walk near the ocean, a country drive or reading a book at home.32. According to the article, what changes can showering cause? A. Bringing the terrible moment to us. B. Increasing the level of dopamine. C. Leading to boredom or tiredness. D. Setting the creative part of the brain free.33. If one has focused on something all day, showering can help _. A. turn ones attention inwards B. draw ones attention to the outside world C. one make an important breakthrough D. many chemical changes to take place34. It can be inferred from the article that _. A. changes in the frequency of an action can create a new perspective B. it is a good idea to talk with others about their sources of inspiration C. our lives might feel longer and fuller if we frequently try new things D. it is helpful to try something different rather than stay focused on a difficult task35. The example of Gertrude Stein in the last paragraph is used to _. A. encourage readers to find their own ways of getting inspiration B. point out to readers that its hard to find inspiration C. explain how to link inspiration with readers daily livesD. show that creativity often es from strange places第二节 七选五（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）Choosing the right job is probably one of the most important decisions we have to make in life, and it is frequently one of the hardest decisions we have to make. One important question that you might ask yourself is: “How do I get a good job?” _36_.There are people who can answer an insignificant advertisement in the local paper and land the best job in the world; others write to all sorts of places all over the country, and never seem to get a reply at all. Still others believe that the in person, door-to-door approach is by far the best way to get a job; and then there are those who, through no active decision of their own, just seem to be in the right place at the right time. _36_. He used to spend a lot of his free time down by the sea watching the tall ships, but never thinking that he might one day sail one of them. His father was a farmer, and being a sailor could never be anything for the boy but an idle dream. One day, on his usual wandering, he heard the captain of the ship plaining that he could not sail because one member of his crew was sick. Without stopping to think, the lad (少年) offered to take his place. _38_._39_. If the lad had gone home to consider his decision for a week, he may have missed his chance. It is one thing to be offered an opportunity; it is another thing to take it and use it well.Sometimes we hear stories about people who break all the rules and still seem to land good jobs. When you go for a job interview or fill out an application, you are expected to say nice things about the pany to which you are applying. _40_. And within a year this person had bee general manager of the pany.A. This story also illustrates the importance of seizing an opportunity when it presents itself.B. People find jobs in an infinite number of ways.C. its almost impossible to find a good job by answering advertisement in newspapersD. Take for example the young man who wanted to be a sailor.E. But there was one person who landed an excellent job by telling the interviewer all the panys faults.F. He spent the rest of his life happily sailing the ships he had always loved.G. It is very important to seize an opportunity when it presents itself.第II卷第三部分 英语知识运用 （共两节，满分45分）第一节 完形填空(共20小题；每小题1.5分，满分30分) At age 14, 15 and 16, the way we looked was the most important thing in the world to us. My friends and I wanted nothing less than perfection. In high school, we joined the gymnastics team, and our _41_ became even more important to us. We had no fat, only muscle.

More and more I expected visits from other kids in the hospital, who were quickly being my friends. One girl came to visit me _55_. Every time she came, she brought flowers. She was recovering from cancer and felt she should e back and _56_ the other patients. She still had no hair, and she was swollen from the medications she had been taking. I would not have given this girl a second _57_ before. I now loved every inch of her and looked forward to her _58_. Finally, I was improving and soon I went home. My leg was still swollen, _59_ I was walking, and I had my foot! When I would go back to the hospital, I often saw my friend. She was still visiting people and _60_ good cheer.
