As they approach the last page, she reads, “ and Cinderella and the prince lived happily ever after.” She closes the book and looks at the young girl, adding, “You know, things dont always happen like this in real life. I just think you should know that now.”We were all raised on fairy tales with glass slippers, valiant (勇敢的) princes and (best of all) magic! However, it didnt take too long to realize that stories like that werent necessarily true. After a few misfortunes, you have learned that glass slippers are really unfortable, no prince is perfect and magic doesnt always work when you need it to.So what do you do when the way you planned things is not the way they turned out?You need to know that parts of your fairy tale have already been written, and sadly, theres not a whole lot you can do about those first few chapters.

Theres still more to the story.While your life has a lot of contributors (投稿者), you are the editor-in-chief. You take whats there and create the masterpiece. All the good pages and the bad ones can e together to make a beautiful adventure.When you find yourself wishing your life could be more like the fairy tales, remember that in some ways it already is. There will be dragons, wicked witches, great romances, winding roads and friends to help you along the way. So, keep rewriting your story every day as long as youre alive.

Things do not turn out the way we want in real life.D. Your story should be continued despite any bad start.BWe have all been there before: when we were enjoying a burger or French fries, sadly a big drop of sauce was on our clothes. But thanks to physical scientist, Quoc Truong, you may not have to worry about your dry cleaning bill ever again!Truong and his team have been working on “self-cleaning clothing” for the past five years. Truongs dream: clothing that wont get dirty in the first place!The U.S. Army has about a million soldiers. Each soldier owns five uniforms. With the constant wear and tear, there is a lot of laundry!Challenged by a general (将军) to invent a uniform that didnt need cleaning, Truong examined the fabric (织物) and the substances that make it dirty. To make uniforms that actually resist a wide range of water- or oil-based substances, Truong and his team have been working on what he calls an “omniphobic coating (涂层)”. “We really wanted to make a coating that once you apply it onto fabric, will keep away anything.”How well does this uniform fabric resist dirt? Much of the testing is done on machines that Truong and his co-workers have had to invent themselves. The tests show that everyday substances, like chocolate sauce, tend to slide off the uniform fabric. The coated uniform fabric can even resist tough substances like motor oil. Truong has even figured out a solution for the smell that could e from clothes that dont get washed and ironed. Soldiers first tested the uniforms in 2011. Soon, the fabric will pass even stricter testing in a field test. Truong and his team are working to improve the self-cleaning fabric. One challenge is mud, especially when it gets into the fabric itself.When all the imaginations have been worked out and testing is pleted the possibilities are endless. Its not just the military that could be using self-cleaning clothes. mercial manufacturers have been attracted to using the omniphobic coating. So someday, both the military and the general public may not have to worry about cleaning clothes again.31. Truong began to study self-cleaning clothing when .A. a general challenged him to do so B. he found soldiers clothes dirty C. lots of water was wasted in the laundry D. a drop of sauce fell on his clothes 32. According to Truong, his omniphobic coating is designed to .A. absorb water-based substances B. resist any dirty substances C. be applied onto anything D. be made of oil-based substances 33. The fifth paragraph mainly suggests that the omniphobic coating is .A. smelly B. toughC. effectiveD. normal 34. What is the most troublesome problem for self-cleaning fabric? A. Chocolate sauce. B. Smell.C. Motor oil. D. Mud. 35. The main idea of the passage is about . A. the future of no laundry B. the appearance of imaginative clothes C. the laundry without using water D. the clothes for the future soldiers CWillpower (意志力) may be abundant as long as you believe it is.People who consider willpower a limited resource tend to need a sugary drink to continue working on a hard task, while those who believe willpower is abundant dont, new research suggests. The findings contradict earlier studies that suggested that willpower is quickly used up.In recent years, more and more research suggested that willpower is like a muscle that tires out if used too much. Other studies found that a physical boost (推动) could provide that fading resource. For instance, people in one study who drank a sugary drink could maintain self-control after a mentally challenging task. The idea was that willpower takes energy and, therefore, uses up the brains glucose (葡萄糖) supply. As a result, a sugary drink would strengthen peoples willpower by “feeding” the brain, earlier studies suggested. But people run marathons or do hours of hard work without need to gorge on food the entire time. And a simple sugary drink can have the same effect in athletes.“We have ample glucose supply in our bodies,” said Carol Dweck, an expert. Dweck and her colleagues asked 87 college students to describe their beliefs about willpower. Some believed the willpower-as-muscle idea, while others believed willpower was abundant and even grows the more its used. They then asked them to plete a mentally challenging task, followed by a second task. Those who believed willpower was limited tired after the first task and performed poorly on the second. If they received a sugary drink after the first task, however, their second performance improved. Those who believed willpower was abundant didnt tire during the second task without the sugar drink.“We believe that people who believe willpower is limited are always wondering Am I tired? Am I hungry? Do I need a drink? They feel that they cant work unless theyre constantly fed,” Dweck said.As a follow-up, the team is doing experiments to adjust schoolchildrens beliefs about willpower.“We teach them about willpower that it is a self-producing thing, that the longer you wait and the harder you try, the more you can get. And it seems to be effective,” Dweck said.36. What is the willpower-as-muscle idea? A. Willpower bees weak if used too much. B. Willpower es from muscles. C. Willpower needs to be exercised like muscles. D. Willpower grows strong when it is used. 37. The underlined phrase “gorge on” in the fifth paragraph may mean “ ”. A. serveB. eat C. purchase D. prepare38. From Dwecks test, we can infer that . A. people often find excuses for their poor willpower B. we know when we need to limit our willpower C. peoples beliefs about willpower may shape their performances D. limited willpower always needs to be strengthened 39. What did Dweck teach schoolchildren? A. How to use their willpower effectively. B. How to produce things with their willpower. C. How to test harder with willpower. D. How to get stronger willpower. 40. What might be the most suitable title for the passage? A. Willpower lies in you B. Willpower is a limited resource C. Willpower is owned by athletes D. Willpower is influencing everyoneDA week without water can easily kill the average person. But a garden that isnt watered for months may produce sweeter, tastier fruits than anything available in most supermarkets. It is called “dry farming”, and throughout the state, this unconventional technique seems to bee popular among small producers of tomatoes, apples, grapes, melons and potatoes.At Happy Boy Farms in America, sales director Jen Lynne believes dry farming could be an important agricultural practice in the future, when water will likely be a less abundant resource.But the taste of her dry-farmed Early Girl tomatoes is the main reason chefs, sellers and individuals around the country are increasingly calling to place orders (下订单). She finds that many calls e from places where rain falls through the summer, making dry farming impossible.“Once you taste a dry-farmed tomato, youll never want anything else,” she says, adding that she could be selling hundreds of 14-pound cases per day if her 10-acre tomato field could meet the demand. Dry-farmed tomatoes have bee a shopper attraction. “People definitely e here to get them. Once someone tastes a dry-farmed tomato, youve got a customer for life.”The idea behind dry farming is that by limiting a plants water intake (摄取量), its fruits have less water and more sugar. But the practice isnt simple. First, dry farming in sandy soil doesnt work. More importantly, the plants must be dry-farmed from the time theyre planted.But farming without water has a major drawback: greatly reduced yields (产量). Stan Devoto, a farmer, says his dry-farmed trees produce 12 to 15 tons of apples per acre per year. Watered trees, on the other hand, may bear 40 or 50 tons. And McEnnis says he harvests about 4 tons of tomatoes per acre each summer and fall, while conventional growers may get 40 tons per acre. Paul Vossen, a farm adviser, says that many people who dry farm do so only because they have no water. “They do it because they have to, and so theyll make it part of their marketing strategy,” he says.41. From what Lynne says, we can infer that .A. she drinks a lot of water every day B. her dry-farmed tomatoes are in great demand C. she plants a lot of dry-farmed fruits D. she lives in an area without much rain 42. What is right about dry farming? A. It limits water intake of plants. B. It grows plants in sandy soil. C. It makes fruits have less sugar. D. It produces fruits with more water.43. What is the main disadvantage of dry farming? A. It decreases farmers passion. B. It makes fruit too sweet. C. It produces less than traditional farming. D. It only applies to several kinds of fruits. 44. The last paragraph implies that for some people dry farming is .A. a way to make full use of land B. a strategy to attract more farmers C. a way to save water resources D. a last choice but works well 45. What is the main idea of the passage? A. Farmers turn off the water to grow sweeter crops. B. Farmers grow what customers love. C. Farmers have different attitudes towards dry-farming. D. Farmers water their crops for sweeter fruits. 第二节 信息匹配（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）阅读下列应用文及相关信息，并按照要求匹配信息。首先请阅读下列各种鹦鹉的图片及提示性文字：A.A man, his daughter, and his girlfriend moves into a 19th century Rhode Island mansion, where his shy daughter begins to witness evil goblin-like creatures.B.Three brothers on the run from the law head for home, only to discover that their mother lost the house.

This is one of the must-see uping horror movies of the year.

This is one of the most highly expected uping horror movies of 2011. However, the sooner we get to see writer/producer Guillermo del Toros latest, the better. Guy Pearce plays a father whose young daughter is sent to live with him and his girlfriend.
