Some say that the word “sneaker” is another word for tennis shoe, 36 no one really knows where the word came from. 37 say it came from the old English verb “sneak”, which 38 to move silently and quickly. The only thing we are 39 is that when you put on a pair of sneakers, you 40 light-hearted, light-footed and ready to play.Sneakers of some kind are used by 41 who play tennis, basketball, and other sports. New design has been made 42 for people who run slowly. But perhaps sneakers are 43 used by children in the United States. In fact American children of 44 ages would much rather play in sneakers than anything else, except perhaps 45 at all.New York City once held a poetry contest (诗歌比赛) for children. The subject was only “sneaker”. Thousands of children sent in their 46 and praised the sneakers they love. One prize winner called 47 poem “The Sneaker and the World Peace”. “When everyone is wearing sneakers,” she said, “it will be impossible to 48 .”American school children can be seen every day 49 sneakers of all colors. They put them on in the morning and take them off 50 . Sneakers are 51 washed. In fact the older and dirtier they are, the 52 lovable they are. When their sneakers wear out (穿破), children hate to throw them off. How do you explain the closeness between 53 ? Perhaps another young 54 in the New York Poetry Contest said it best. “A shoe is just a shoe,” he said. “But a sneaker is a 55 .”36A. however B. but C. or D. and37A. All B. Some C. People D.

Too many people put off something that brings them joy just because they havent thought about it, or because they are unwilling to try something new.My sister died a few years ago. We never did have lunch together. I cant remember how many times I was refused when I called her to go to lunch. She would say to me: “I cant, my brother. I have clothes on the line.” “My hair is dirty. I wish I had known yesterday.” “I had a late breakfast.” “It looks like rain.” Only after her death did I choose to be a little more flexible（灵活的）.Life is not made up of things that you do at a particular time, but it demands variety and adventure. As we grow older, the list of promises made to ourselves may get longer. Perhaps one morning, when we wake up, we will find to our surprise that our life is full of “Im going to”, “I plan to” and “Someday, when things are settled down a bit.”My seize the-moment friend is open to adventure and ready at any moment to make a new start. She keeps an open mind about new ideas. Her great interest in life is contagious. With her around you, you may trade your bad feet for good shoes.I have not touched ice cream for 10 years. The other day, I stopped off and bought a triple-decker（三层冰淇淋）. If my car had hit an iceberg（冰山） on the way home, I would have died happy.56The passage suggests that the authors sister _.Awas very busy with her work Bdied a very happy person Calways did things in a fixed order Dwas the wisest woman in the world57The writer has had a new way of looking at life since _.Ahis sister died Bhe met the wise womanChe turned old Dthe three words appeared58The underlined word “contagious” is used to show that the woman is_.Apolite Binfluential Cpractical Dproud59The author expects those who have read the passage to _.Ahave a long list of promises Bbe a smart businessman Chit an iceberg in their cars Dbe as adventurous as himself B“The first and best of victories is for a man to conquer himself; to be conquered by himself is, of all things, the most shameful,” says Plato. Self-control is at the root of all the advantages. Let a man give in to his impulses (冲动) and feelings, and from that moment he gives up his moral (道德上的) freedom. A single angry word has lost many a friend. When Socrates found in himself any temper or anger, he would check it by speaking low in order to control himself. If you are conscious of being angry, keep your mouth shut so that you can hold back rising anger. Many a person has dropped dead in great anger. Fits of anger bring fits of disease. “Whom the gods would destroy they first make mad.” “Keep cool”, says George Herbert, “for fierceness (狂怒) makes error a fault.” To be angry with a weak man is to prove that you are not strong yourself. “Anger,” says Pythagoras, “brings with folly(愚蠢) and ends with regret.” You must measure the strength of a man by the power of the feelings he conquers, not by the power of those which conquer him. Self-control is mans last greatest victory. If a man lacks self-control he seems to lack everything. Without it he can have no patience, no power to govern himself; he can have no self-confidence, for he will always be controlled by his strongest feeling. If he lacks self-control, the very backbone and nerve of character are lacking also. 60. What does the reader learn from the first paragraph? A. The greatest victory for a man is to conquer everything except himself. B. Ones moral freedom is based on the control of himself. C. To control oneself is the most difficult in ones life. D. If a person is too stubborn, he will feel most shameful. 61. If a man lacks self-control, he lacks all of the following EXCEPT _. A. the very backbone and nerve of character B. strong feelingsC. the patience and power to control himself D. self-confidence62. Whats the best title of this passage?A. Victories of conquering oneself. B. Moral freedom.C. Self-control D. Advantages of self-control.CAttractions in WisconsinWisconsin Historical Museum30 N.

Artisan Gallery & Creamery Caf are open daily for 4 hours DA popular saying going,Sticks and stone may break my bones, but words will never hurt me. However,thats not really true. Words have the power to build us up or tear us down. It doesnt matter if the words e from someone else or ourselves-the positive and negative effects are just as lasting.We all talk to ourselves sometimes.we are usually too embarrassed to admit it, though. But we really shouldnt be, because more and more experts believe talking to ourselves out loud is a healthy habit.This self-talk helps us motive ourselves, remember things,solves problems, and calm ourselves down. Be aware, though, that as much as 77% of self-talk tends to be negative. So in order to stay positive, we should only speak words of encouragement to ourselves. We should also be quick to give ourselves a pat on the back. The next time you finish a project , do well on a test, or finally clean your room, join me in saying,Good job!Often, words came out of our mouths without us thinking about the effects they will have; but we should be aware that our words cause certain responses to others. For example, when returning an item to a store, we might use warm friendly language during the exchange. And the clerk will probably respond in a similar manner. Or we can use harsh, critical language, which will most likely cause the clerk to be defensive.Words possess power because of their lasting effects. Many of us regret something we once said. And we remember unkind words said to us ! Before speaking, we should always ask ourselves: Is it true? Is it loving? Is it needed? If what we want to say doesnt pass this test,then it is better left unsaid.Words possess ower: both positive ad negative. Those around us receive encouragement when we speak positively. We can offer hope, build self-esteem and motive others to do their best. Negative words destroy all those things. Will we use our words to hurt or to heal? The choice is ours.67. The author argues in the first paragraph that _.A. words has lasting effects on us.B. words will never hurt us at all.C.positive effects last longer than negative effects.D.negative words may let us down.68. Why should we not feel embarrassed when it es to talking to ourselves ?A. Almost everybody has the habit of talking to oneself.B. Talking to ourselves is believed to be good for our health.C. Talking to ourselves helps us to solve all the problems.D. It does harm to have self-talk when we are alone.69. The underlined phrase give ourselves a pat on the back in paragraph 3 means _.A. blame ourselves B. punish ourselves C. praise ourselves D.talk to ourselves70. Which of the following statements would the author agree to ?A. Unkind words are more unlikely to be forgotten.B. It is better to think twice before talking to others.C. Words always posses long positive effects.D. Kind words are sometimes not needed at all.第2节 （共5小题； 每小题2分， 满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。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 can I get a good job? 71 There are people who can answer an insignificant advertisement in the local newspaper 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. 72 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 stoping to think, the lad(少年) offered to take his place. 73 74 If the lad had gone home to ponder(考虑) 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 plum jobs(美差). 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. 75 And within a year this person had bee general manger of the pany.A. This story also illustrates the importance of seizing an opportunity when it prese
