He began to _28_ the fact that there is no such a thing as fate, only _29_. Since then, he has published several imaginative, illustrated（带插图的）books.According to Jimmy, you are what you choose to be. You can give up or you can work to be a happier person. Jimmy realized that, while the world sometimes seems unfair, your choice can change your life.This idea can be _30_ in Jimmys books, where his characters show the powerlessness they feel before making their choices. The message that goes with Jimmys drawings, however, is _31_.Though the world may make us feel small, we must be _32_. Everything will be all right for usas it is for the “small people” in Jimmys booksif we make choices that are _33_ for us.In spite of his new _34_ and wealth, Jimmy prefers working _35_ at home with his wife and daughter. He spends his mornings drawing. To Jimmy, living a life as he chooses means much more than money and fame could offer.21Aunhappy Bunusual Cunfair Duneasy22Ahealth Bwealth Chappiness Dillnesses23Aashamed Bdisappointed Chelpless Dendless24Acrying Bpainting Cimagination Dconsideration25Ahome Bcondition Csituation Dwork26Agame Btrick Crole Dpart27Aunable Bimpossible Cunfortable Ddifficult28Aunderstand Bface Crefuse Drecognize29Afailures Befforts Cchoices Dinterests30Afound Bdrawn Cwritten Daccepted31Apowerful Bhopeful Cuseful Dsuccessful32Agreat Bstrong Cbrave Dequal33Ascientific Bbasic Cright Dsimple34Aproduct Bfame Cname Djob35Arapidly Bseparately Cslowly Dquietly第二节语法填空（共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分）阅读下列短文，按照句子结构的语法性和上下文连贯的要求，填入适当的词或使用括号中词语的正确形式填空。Taking a taxi in a certain Eastern European country can be a shocking experience. _36_ is said that some taxi drivers have metal wires stuck into the passenger seats.

For example, if in the past, someone in Dads family had been arrested for stealing a horse, it would be a skeleton in his familys closet. He really wouldnt want any neighbor to know about it.”“Why pick on my family?” Jessicas father said with anger. “Your family history isnt so good, you know. Wasnt your great-great grandfather a prisoner who was transported to Australia for his crimes?” “Yes, but people these days say that you are not a real Australian unless your ancestors arrived as prisoners.” “Gosh, sorry I asked. I think I understand now,” Jessica cut in before things grew worse.After dinner, the house was very quiet. Jessicas parents were still quite angry with each other. Her mother was ironing clothes and every now and then she glared at her husband, who hid behind his newspaper pretending to read. When she finished, she gathered the freshly pressed clothes in her arms and walked to Jessicas closet. Just as she opened the door and reached in to hang a skirt, a bony arm stuck out from the dark depths and a bundle of white bones fell to the floor. Jessicas mother sank into a faint (晕倒), waking only when Jessica put a cold, wet cloth on her forehead. She looked up to see the worried faces of her husband and daughter.“What happened? Where am I?” she asked. “You just destroyed the schools skeleton, Mum,” explained Jessica. “I brought it home to help me with my health project. I meant to tell you, but it seemed that as soon as I mentioned skeletons and closets, it caused a problem between you and Dad.” Jessica looked in amazement as her parents began to laugh madly. “Theyre both crazy,” she thought.46. According to Jessicas mother, “a skeleton in the closet” means . A. a family honorB. a family secretC. a family storyD. a family treasure47. What can we learn about some Australians ancestors from Paragraph 2?A. They were brought to Australia as prisoners.B. They were the earliest people living in Australia.C. They were involved in some crimes in Australia.D. They were not regarded as criminals in their days.48. Jessicas mother fell down into a faint because she was .A. knockedB. frightenedC. injuredD. surprised49. Why did Jessica bring a skeleton home? A. She was curious about it.B. She planned to keep it for fun.C. She needed it for her school task.D. She intended to scare her parents.50. Jessicas parents laughed madly at the end of the story probably because .A. they were crazyB. they were overexcitedC. they realized their misunderstandingD. they both thought they had won the quarrelBAs any homemaker who has tried to keep order at the dinner table knows, there is far more to a family meal than food. Sociologist Michael Lewis has been studying 50 families to find out just how much more. Lewis and his co-workers carried out their study by videotaping the families while they ate ordinary meals in their own homes. They found that parents with small families talk actively with each other and their children. But as the number of children gets larger, conversation gives way to the parents efforts to control the loud noise they make. That can have an important effect on the children. In general the more question-asking the parents do, the higher the childrens IQ scores, Lewis says. And the more children there are, the less question-asking there is. The study also provides an explanation for why middle children often seem to have a harder time in life than their siblings(兄弟，姐妹). Lewis found that in families with three or four children, dinner conversation is likely to center on the oldest child, who has the most to talk about, and the youngest, who needs the most attention. “Middle children are invisible,” says Lewis. “When you see someone get up from the table and walk around during dinner, chances are that its the middle child.” There is, however, one thing that stops all conversation and prevents anyone from having attention: “When the TV is on,” Lewis says, “dinner is a non-event(扫兴的事).”51. The writers purpose in writing the text is to _. A. show the relationship between parents and childrenB. teach parents ways to keep order at the dinner tableC. report on the findings of a studyD. give information about family problems52. Parents with large families ask fewer questions at dinner because_. A. they are busy serving food to their childrenB. they are busy keeping order at the dinner tableC. they have to pay more attention to younger childrenD. they are tired out having prepared food for the whole family53. By saying “Middle children are invisible” in paragraph 3, Lewis means that middle children_. A. have to help their parents to serve dinnerB. get the least attention from the familyC. are often kept away from the dinner tableD. find it hard to keep up with other children54. Lewis research provides an answer to the question_. A. why TV is important in family lifeB. why parents should keep good orderC. why children in small families seem to be quieterD. why middle children seem to have more difficulties in life55. Which of the following statements would the writer agree to?A. It is important to have the right food for children. B. It is a good idea to have the TV on during dinner. C. Parents should talk to each of their children frequently. D. Elder children should help the younger ones at dinner.C“Everybody loves a bargain.” One persons useless, ugly, or broken object can be another persons bargain. That is why so many Americans do not throw things away. They put them outside their houses. They put on a “For Sale” sign. And, as simple as that, they have a yard sale. The sellers put a paid announcement(付费通告)in a local newspaper. It tells when and where the yard sale will take place. These sales are very popular during weekends in spring, summer, and autumn. Early in the morning, all the things to be sold are carried out of the house. Then they sit all day in the sunlight-like tired guests at a party-waiting for someone to take them home. Just about anything can be sold at a yard sale. Sometimes, there are more clothes than anything else. Cooking equipment is also popular. So are old toys, tools, books, tables and chairs. Then there are objects called “white elephants”. A white elephant is something you think is extremely ugly or useless. It may be an electric light shaped like a fish. You feel a sharp pain whenever you look at it. To someone else, however, it might be a thing of beauty and joy. Some people go to yard sales to find a special thing that they collect. It may be old toy trains, for example, or painting of dogs. Experts say more Americans are collecting old things now than ever before. Most people who go to yard sales, however, are not looking for anything special. They might buy an object simply because it costs so little. They enjoy negotiating(谈判) over prices, even if they really do not need the object. Later, they may hold their own yard to sell all the things they have bought.56. What kind of things will go to a yard sale? A. Cheap and ugly things. B. Things people no longer use.C. Things out of season. D. Things of great value.57. A white elephant refers to _.A. something that can cause a feeling of pain B. something disliked by the owners while appreciated by othersC. something sold at the lowest pricesD. a toy shaped like a fish 58. Most people go to yard sales to_.A. find valuable paintings B. look for something specialC. find a bargain D. kill their time59. Which of the following is NOT true about a yard sale?A. It may not be held when the weather is very cold.B. It can last for a whole day. C. It is usually held with a party.D. It is held outdoors.60. We can infer from the last paragraph that_.A. people may find something of great value on a yard saleB. yard sales only attract those who have a low ineC. things on a yard sale can cost people a lotD. most people dont want to go to yard sales.第二节 信息匹配（共5小题，每小题1分，满分5分）阅读下列材料，从所给的六个选项（A、B、C、D、E和F）中，选出符合各小题要求的最佳选项，选项中有一项是多余选项。注意：选E在答题卡上同时涂黑A和B，选F在答题卡上同时涂黑C和D。以下是几个国际节日的简要介绍。A.
