My dad started visiting her in her room with 9 tools. He stood the paper up against a backing, put the paintbrush in his mouth and began to paint without using his hands. All the while he would tell her, see, you can do anything you set your 10 to. 11 , the little girl began to paint using her mouth. Soon after that, she left because the doctors felt there was nothing else they could do for her. My dad also left his voluntary work temporarily because he became ill.Sometime later after my dad had partly 12 and returned to work in the hospital, the little girl came one day. She walked straight over to my dad and hugged him really tight. She gave him a picture she drew, differently this time, using her 13 . At the bottom it read “Thank you for helping me 14 again.” My dad would cry every time he told us this story.

He was hurrying around the house, getting everything ready for his lunch date with Myra. He loved Myra，his best friend. Joey was twelve, but he wasnt sure how old Myra was. He only knew she had been around most of his life, just about as long as he could remember. Myra was perfect. She always played the games Joey wanted to play and she never plained. While Joey did his homework, Myra was right by his side, giving her approval. Every afternoon，Myra would often wait for Joey when he got off the school bus and then chase him inside. When Joey was sick, Myra would always be right by his side forting him. Sometimes they would take walks in the park. Most people in the park would stop to say hi to Myra and Joey always swelled with pride. Joey never had a friend in the world that was so special. He had to hurry. Myra would be there soon. Joey raced back through the house and to the hall closet to get the tablecloth that his mother set aside for his special lunch dates with Myra. He took the tablecloth and spread it over the picnic table in the backyard. With the plates laid out，Joey had almost everything ready. He dashed in the house to get the sausage sandwiches. That was Myras favorite lunch. For one last time Joey surveyed the picnic table. A napkin! I need a napkin, thought Joey. Myra usually made a mess and needed a napkin to wipe her month. He ran back inside to get the napkin. A quick dash back outside. Just as Joey was placing the napkin on the table, he heard a familiar sound. Everything seemed to be right and in place, Joey turned around just to see Myra running through the yard. Joey smiled and pulled out Myras chair.“I got your favorite food, girl.” said Joey. Myra, Joeys wide eyed English bulldog, hopped in her chair. Joey loved Myra.26. How long has Myra been around Joeys life? A. For 12 years. B. Since Joey was 12 years old. C. Since Joey could remember. D. It is not mentioned in the passage.27. Which of the following is NOT suitable to describe Myra? A. Patient and supportive. B. Considerate and friendly. C. Proud and obedient. D. Gentle and popular.28. What did Joey do for his date with Myra this Saturday? A. He waited for Myra when she got off the school bus after returning from the school. B. He took a walk in the park with Myra and introduced her to others with pride. C. He played the games with Myra and finished all the homework for her. D. He prepared a lunch for Myra with her favorite food. 29. The underlined word “napkin” in paragraph 3 most probably refers to _. A. a kind of food B. a cleaning tissue C. an interesting toy D. a sweeping tool30. From the passage, we can know that Myra is Joeys _. A. pet B. cousin C. sister D. classmate BIs it worth it to go to college? This has been questioned a lot recently in America. According to a new survey released by the Pew Research Center, only 40 percent of Americans felt that colleges provided a good value for the cost. At the same time, 86 percent of college graduates still felt it was good for them. There are a number of reasons for such dissatisfaction with college. First, there are plenty of problems with higher education - poor quality and out-of-control costs are two of the biggest. Second, it is true that college is not for everyone. Plenty of rewarding and important careers do not require college. And due to the slow economy, there may in fact be more graduates than the current job market needs. Besides, anti-college feelings are nothing new. Today, Microsofts Bill Gates or Apples Steve Jobs - both college dropouts- is often held up as evidence of why all that time sitting in class is better spent elsewhere.However, getting a college education is still a good idea. College graduates earn more, and are more likely to have a job in the first place. According to the statistics last year, the average weekly earnings for someone with some college education but no degrees were $712, pared to $1,038 for a college graduate. That is almost $17,000 over the course of a year and there is an even bigger divide for those with less education. Meanwhile, the unemployment rate was 9.2 percent for those with only some college education and more than 10 percent for those with just a middle school degree, but it was 5.4 percent for college graduates. The economic gaps between college pleters and those with less education are getting larger.Although most Americans surveyed by Pew feel doubtful about the value of a college degree, an overwhelming majority of parents Pew surveyed still expect their children to go to college. “It can be inferred that the increased doubt has not significantly influenced decision making,” Pews Taylor says. “Despite the concern about rising costs and other problems, college remains a universal desire in this country.”31. Recently many Americans question _. A. the value of receiving college education B. the ability of college graduates C. the quality of college education D. the high cost of a college degree32. According to the passage, Bill Gates was _ A. a self-taught college student B. a hardworking undergraduate C. a successful college dropout D. a unsuccessful college graduate33. The writer seems to agree that _. A. there is no need to go to college B. anti-college feelings are a new thing C. college cannot guarantee employment D. college education remains a wise choice34. Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?A. The slow economy might result in more unemployment. B. Most college graduates feel it necessary to receive college educationC. Peoples earnings depend on their educational background to some extent.D. As doubts about college education arise, peoples desire to go to college weakens.35. Whats the main idea of this passage? A. Poor quality and high costs make college less popular among the Americans nowadays. B. Despite the dissatisfactions with college, most Americans still favor college education C. People with a college degree earn better money in America than those who dont D. American students are getting tired of college education. CThe rising sun shining upon the blue water, it was a beautiful August morning. The captain and his crew cast their nets some 50 miles south of Louisiana in the Gulf of Mexico. The morning peace was broken as the net was pulled over. The contents were poured out, followed by excited cries of Coins! Coins! The fishermen quickly realized they had realized a fishermans dream: sunken treasure! And not just any treasure, but early American silver dollars that had gone down 210 years earlier.In 1784, at the end of the American War of Independence, a heavily armed ship was bound for the port of New Orleans. On board was a fortune in Spanish Silver Dollars. Hundreds of thousands of them were loaded for the trip to New Orleans, yet not a single one arrived. With no survivors from the unlucky voyage, historians can only guess at what happened. Some say powerful storms took her down while others speculate it was treasure-hungry pirates(海盗). Whatever happened, the secret - along with a treasure valued near $ 100 million in todays dollars - was sent to a watery grave some 300 feet below the oceans surface.Spanish Silver Dollars were the favorite coins of colonial(殖民地的) Americans. Widely used and accepted as payment in the thirteen colonies, the United States government gave them the status as official currency. Unfortunately, even though they were struck in large quantities, not many of them survive today. After the Civil War, the government took them back from circulation and they were melted down.Due to the discovery of this treasure, GovMint is releasing these coins to the public for an amazingly low price. For a limited time, these authentic silver dollars are priced at $49 plus shipping and handling far lower than the market price of this coin anywhere else worldwide.36. What surprised the fishermen on an August morning? A. Their net contained a big strange-looking fish. B. They found the treasure sunken 210 years ago. C. They found some pieces of a sunken ship in the net. D. Their net suddenly got caught by something deep in the water.37. What happened to the ship heading for New Orleans in 1874? A. Loaded with too much goods, it hit on the rocks. B. Robbed by pirates, it cost $100,000,000s worth of goods. C. It disappeared but nobody knew exactly what had happened. D. It was caught in a terrible storm and went down into the ocean.38. What do we know about Spanish Silver Dollars? A. They were officially accepted in the 13 colonies. B. They were widely used in America after the Civil War. C. Issued in a small number, not many of them survive. D. Today one coin equals to 49 dollars in the world market. 39. When did the Spanish Silver Dollars stop being used as a currency? A. After the American War of Independence. B. 210 years ago. B. In the colonial age of America. D. After the American Civil War.40. In which section of a magazine would you probably find this article? A. Tourism B. Geography C. History. D. Economy. D If your name is Tony, Valerie, or even William, the chance of it being used to name a hurricane in the Atlantic Ocean this year is quite strong. Barry, Jerry and Wendy have better chances of being used as hurricane names next year.Hurricanes are violent storms with a steady wind speed of more than 120km/h. In the Atlantic and east of the Pacific Ocean, such tropical storms are called hurricanes. To the west of the International Date Line, they are known as typhoons; in the Indian Oceans and Bay of Bengal, they are referred to as cyclones. Willy-willies are found in northwest Australia.In order for these storms to build up, there must be: warm sea temperature of at least 27, light and moist winds from the east, and winds must spin. Once the above conditions are present, the system can begin to develop and mature. A fully-developed hurricane has an eye in the center.Hurricanes can be highly damaging. The biggest hurricane of this year struck the east coast of the US in November. Eight million people suffered power failure and 18 thousand flights were cancelled. More than 110 people died in this hurricane and a record of nearly $50 billion in damages was reported. However, such a terrible hurricane was named Sandy, a beautiful female name.Giving names to hurricanes was probably started by the Puerto Ricans who would name a tropical storm after a saint. This helped prevent confusion in munication especially when several storms were forming at the same time. After 1953, names of women were used to describe hurricanes. From 1979 on, however, names of both men and women are used in turns.Now, six lists (xx) have been drawn up and they were used in rotation. After xx, the xx list was used again minus some names which have been “retired” - like Andrew, Bob, Carol and David because hurricanes with these names happened to be very deadly and costly storms.41. As for violent storms with a steady wind speed of more than 120km/h, we know that _. A. they are called hurricanes all around the world B. they may be referred to differently in different areas C. they occur only in the Atlantic and east of Pacific Ocean D. they may happen any time and anywhere in the world42. How many conditions are mentioned in the passage for a tropical storm to build up? A. Three. B. Four. C. Five D. Six43. When hurricanes are given names, _. A. people may suffer less from them B. it may be easier for scientists to do research on them C. people may be less puzzled while referring to themD. there may be less of them at the same time in the Atlantic Ocean44. The most severe hurricane in the US this year is _. A. Hurricane Carol B. Hurricane Wendy C. Hurricane Tony D. Hurricane Sandy45. We can infer from the passage that _. A. six names are used to call hurricanes each year B. the custom of naming hurricanes started in 1979 C. Sandy may not be used again as a name of hurricane D. hurricane names in xx will be exactly the same as those in the year xx第二节 信息匹配 (共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分) 请阅读下列应用文及其相关信息，并按照要求匹配信息。下面是这些信息的简要介绍，请为他们找出他们所对应的信息：46.
