Unable to speak English but willing to do anything to succeed, he learned the language, became a barber, and opened up his own business in a small town. He put my sister and me through college during a time when most people thought that women didnt need an education and that they should be satisfied with getting married and having children. He gave us values and ambition. But this story didnt really start until my father was 60 years old.I was preparing to get married and my father was attempting to practice the polke, a must at any Ukrainian wedding. But he just couldnt do it! He had lost mobility in his leg and was diagnosed with a brain tumor (肿瘤). After surgery, this energetic, hard-working man was forced to retire as a result of significant paralysis (瘫痪) in his right arm and leg. My dad had always worked two jobs and spent his spare time working around the house. Now that kind of life came to a sudden stop. Yet never once did he plain. He bought rubber balls and spent his days trying to regain his hand mobility by squeezing those balls over and over.After his last operation, he chatted with me pleasantly in the hospital room until a nurse flew into the room, waving her finger at me, and yelling, “Youd better tell your father to stay in bed. He is paralyzed and will never walk again. He needs to stop trying to get out of bed and accept the fact that he cant walk now or ever. I am sick of picking him up and youd better warn him to stay put!” My father smiled. He spent a great deal of time on the floor that year, but he eventually got up and walked.My father lived nineteen more years after that operation. He bought himself a motor scooter (小型摩托车) and spent years zipping around the streets of Philadelphia. He was proud, free, and always smiling.56 In what way was the authors father different from most other people in his times?A. He succeeded in migrating to the U.S.B.

Never give up on your life.BNew York is one of the last large American cities to have some of its policemen on horseback. The New York police have 170 horses that they use in certain parts of the city. The horses are expensive to feed, but it is even more expensive to take care of them. Because the horses must walk on the streets, they need special horseshoes. In fact, they need more than 8,000 of them each year. Every police horse in New York gets new shoes every month. Keeping these shoes in good repair is the job of six blacksmiths. There are only about thirty-five of these blacksmiths in the whole Unite States.The cost of shoeing a horse is between twenty dollars and thirty-five dollars, and it takes a good blacksmith two to three hours to do the job. A blacksmiths job is not an easy one. He must be able to shape a shoe from a piece of metal and then fit it to the horses foot. The blacksmith must bend over all the time when he is fitting the shoe and must hold the weight of the horses leg while he works. But even more important, he must be able to deal with horses - for before the blacksmith can begin his work, he has to get the horse to lift its leg.One of the blacksmiths in New York is James Corbin. He came to the country form Ireland in 1948.He not only makes horseshoes for the police but also works for a group of horse owners near the city. Corbin became interested in blacksmithing because his father did it, and, as he puts it, “Its a good way to make a living.”61According to the reading passage, a blacksmith must be likely a man.A. cleverB. richC. strongD. tall62 James Corbin became a blacksmith because he .A. was interested in horses.B. was needed by the policemenC. drew a picture of the horses D. had to make a living63 In the reading passage “to shape a shoe” is to .A. fit it on the horses footB. use it for two or three hoursC. make the form of a horseshoe from a piece of metal D. draw a picture of the shoe64The best title for the passage is .A.

The things that overlapDMany parents who wele the idea of turning off the TV and spending more time with the family are still worried that without TV they would constantly be on call as entertainers for their children. They remember thinking up all sorts of things to do when they were kids. But their own kids seem different, less resourceful, somehow. When theres nothing to do, these parents observe regretfully, their kids seem unable to e up with anything to do besides turning on the TV.One father, for example, says, “When I was a kid, we were always thinking up things to do, projects and games. We certainly never plained in an annoying way to our parents. I have nothing to do.” He pares this with his own children today: “Theyre simply lazy. If someone doesnt entertain them, theyll happily sit there watching TV all day.”There is one word for this fathers disappointment: unfair. It is as if he were disappointed in them for not reading Greek though they have never studied the language. He deplores (哀叹) his childrens lack of inventiveness, as if the ability to play were something born that his children are missing. In fact, while the tendency to play is built into the human species, the actual ability to play to imagine, to invent, to elaborate on reality in a playful way and the ability to gain fulfillment from it, these are skills that have to be learned and developed.Such disappointment, however, is not only unjust, it is also destructive. Sensing their parents disappointment, children e to believe that they are, indeed, lacking something, and that this makes them less worthy of admiration and respect. Giving children the opportunity to develop new resources, to enlarge their horizons and discover the pleasure of doing things on their own is, on the other hand, a way to help children develop a confident feeling about themselves as capable and interesting people.71 According to many parents, if theres nothing to do, the children would .A. turn on the TVB. plain to their parentsC. ask their parents to play with themD. do all of the above72 Many parents think that, instead of watching a lot of TV their children should .A. sit silently studying GreekB. think up things to entertain themselvesC. find chances to talk with parentsD. enjoy themselves outdoors73The father often blames their children for not being able to entertain themselves. This is unfair because .A. the children are not really lazy, but theres nothing for them to doB. they do not lack the ability to playC. they have to learn and develop their playing ability graduallyD. the father have done nothing to help the children74 When parents show constant disappointment in their children, the children will .A. lose their confidence and respectabilityB. be much more disappointedC. refuse to learn new thingsD. discover the pleasures of doing things on their own75What is the authors main idea?A. Todays children are being less capable and independent than before.B. Parents should give children more help on how to be creative.C. Turning off the TV will help us solve a lot of family problems.D. Its not just for parents and children to plain each other.第卷(非选择题 共35分)第四部分 写作(共二节，满分35分)第一节：阅读表达(共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分)阅读下面的短文，并根据短文后的要求答题(请注意问题后的字数要求)。What is the hottest topic at your school recently?
