In 1990 he wrote the HTTP and HTML programs which form the basis of the World Wide Web.The next year his programs were placed on to the Internet. Everyone was wele to use them and improve them if they could. Programmers used this codes(密码) to work with different operating systems. New things like web browsers(浏览器) and search engines were developed. Between 1991 and 1994 the number of web pages rose from 10 to 100,000.In 1994 Tim Berners-Lee formed the newly formed World Wide Web consortium(协会)， or W3C. More than 200 leading panies and laboratories are represented by W3C.

But it was quite by accident that I discovered the deep meaning of his words.For years we made the long drive from our home in Seattle to my parents home in Boise in nine hours. We traveled the way most people do: the fastest, shortest, easiest road, especially when I was alone with four noisy, restless kids who hate confinement(限制) and have strong opinions about everything.Road trips felt risky，so I would drive fast, stopping only when I had to. We would stick to the freeways and arrive tired.But then Banner, our lamb was born. He was rejected by his mama days before our planned trip to Boise. I had two choices: leave Banner with my husband, or take him with me. My husband made the decision for me.That is how I found myself on the road with four kids, a baby lamb and nothing but my everlasting optimism to see me through. We took the country roads out of necessity. We had to stop every hour, let Banner shake out his legs and feed him. The kids chased him and one another. Theyd get back in the car breathless and energized, smelling fresh from the cold air.We explored side roads, catching grasshoppers in waisthigh grass. Even if we simply looked out of the car windows at baby pigs following their mother, or fish leaping out of the water, it was better than the best ride down the freeway. Here was life. And new horizons(见识)We eventually arrived at my parents doorstep astonishingly fresh and full of stories.I grew brave with the trip back home and creative with my disciplining technique. On an empty section of road, everyone started quarreling. I stopped the car, ordered all kids out and told them to meet me up ahead. I parked my car half a mile away and read my book in sweet silence.Some road trips are by necessity fast and straight. But that trip with Banner opened our eyes to a world available to anyone adventurous enough to wander around and made me realize that a detour may uncover the best part of journeyand the best part of yourself.28Why did the author use to take freeways to her parents home?AIt was less tiring. BIt would be faster and safer.CHer kids would feel less confined. DShe felt better with other drivers nearby.29The author stopped regularly on the country roads to _Arelax in the fresh air Btake a deep breathCtake care of the lamb Dlet the kids play with Banner30What does the author discover from the trip according to Paragraph 6?AFreeways are where beauty hides.

BTo order some food for them.CTo play a game with them. DTo let them cool down.DYou feel happiest when you create a healthy balance between giving and receiving. If you give and give without making time to fill your own needs ，then its likely you will burn out， or feel upset. When you take and take without giving anything back， you never feel a sense of achievement， so you are always searching for ways to fill the void in your life.The way to create a healthy balance between giving and receiving so as to achieve real happiness is to know and then live by your values. I break values up into two groups which I call “being” and “having” values. Your “being” values are the character traits(特征)of the ideal person you would like to be. An example of some “being” values are： kind， loving， generous， inspirational， peaceful， wise and even powerful. By acting on these values， you give to others through your actions and you inspire others by “being” a positive role model. Mastering “being” these character traits bees your life purpose. Your “having” values are the feelings you need to create in order to be happy. These could be panionship， achievement， support， “being” valued or financial security. This is what you receive. You take responsibility for filling your own needs by taking steps to create these feelings and conditions in your life.When you make a mitment to live by your “being” values， it bees easier to make conscious choices rather than reactionary(保守的) ones. If your usual habit is to plain about your problems， you could choose to think and act like a calm person. A calm person might go for a walk， meditate(沉思)， or set a time limit before responding. If your usual pattern is to worry， you could choose to act like a responsible or wise person. In other words， you would act like the person you choose to bethis is the key to personal power.When you choose to act on your values， you not only feel good about yourself， but you reinforce(增强)your chosen beliefs. Over time acting in this way changes how you see the world， and in turn the way other people think of you.32. The underlined word “void” in Paragraph 1 probably means.A. a feeling of emptiness B. a loss of powerC. a lack of energy D. a state of being confused 33. According to the text， by acting on your own “being” values， you will.A. gain a lot of power B. fill your own needsC. seek all human virtues D. form positive personality 34. Which of the following does NOT belong to your “having” values？A. Your success in the petition. B. The support from your friends.C. Your own peaceful mind. D. The friendship with others.35. What can be inferred from the text？A. “Having” values are better than “being” values.B. The way other people think of you decides who you are.C. A calm person does not choose to plain easily.D. A responsible person does not care about financial security.第二节 （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MuzakThe next time you go into a bank, a store, or a supermarket, stop and listen.

As the saying goes, “No cross, no crown.” Only by facing and overing difficulties in our life can we grow up happily and healthily.It reminds me of my experience when I joined in the military training after I entered senior high school. It was the first time I had lived away from my home, so I found it difficult to fit in. And the training officer was strict with us. I once thought I couldnt stick to the end. But anyway, I made it. The trials made it easier for me to adapt to life in high school, and the difficulties I came across have now bee a precious memory in my life. In short, life consists of not only sunshine but also hardships. We should be brave in front of difficulties. Lets learn to regard the challenges of life we are facing as a stepping-stone to future success and make the best of them.
