Mr. Johnson took the only escape route -through the boot(行李箱）.Mr Johnsons car had finished up in a ditch(沟渠) at Romney Marsin, Kent, after skidding on ice and hitting a bank. “Fortunately, the water began to e in only slowly，” Mr Johnson said. “I couldnt force the doors because they were jammed against the walls of the ditch and dared not open the windows because I knew water would e flooding in.”Mr Johnson, a sweet salesman of Sitting Home, Kent, first tried to attract the attention of other motorists by sounding the horn and hammering on the roof. Then he began his struggle to escape.Later he said, “It was really a half penny that saved my life. It was the only coin I had in my pocket and I used it to unscrew the back seat to get into the boot. I hammered desperately with a hammer trying to make someone hear, but no help came.”It took ten minutes to unscrew the seat, and a further five minutes to clear the sweet samples from the boot. Then Mr Johnson found a wrench and began to work on the boot lock. Fifteen minutes passed by. “It was the only chance I had. Finally it gave, but as soon as I moved the boot lid, the water and mud poured in. I forced the lid down into the mud and scrambled clear as the car filled up.”His hands and arms cut and bruised(擦伤), Mr Johnson got to Beckett Farm nearby, where he was looked after by the farmers wife, Mrs Lucy Bates. Huddled in a blanket, he said, “That thirty minutes seemed like hours.” Only the tips of the car wheels were visible, police said last night. The vehicle had sunk into two feet of mud at the bottom of the ditch.36.What is the best title for this newspaper article?AThe Story of Mr Johnson, a Sweet SalesmanBCar Boot Can Serve As The Best Escape RouteCDriver Escaped Through the Car BootDThe Driver Survived a Terrible Car Accident37.Which of the following objects is the most important to Mr Johnson?AThe hammer.

Now the “Be More Than a Bystander” campaign organized by Advertising Council, a nonprofit organization, is aiming to remove school bullying by urging parents to teach their children to face such behavior. It makes use of a series of television, print and online ads to promote the idea that if witnesses know what to do, they can take various steps, such as moving the victim away from the situation or reporting it to an adult, to stop the bullying.Parents talk to their kids about drugs, sex, drinking and driving, ”said Peggy Conlon, president of the Ad Council, “but they are not always active in bullying-control.” 80%of high school students see bullying behavior firsthand at least weekly，but parents are less aware of it, with only about50percent realizing that bullying occurs frequently, according to a research by DoSomething. org.The council tested many ways and decided on the parental focus after reading a report from DoSomething. org. It wants to remind parents that what their kids are witnessing is serious, and it can have terrible effects.”Parents are still influential,said Ms. Thomas, a volunteer for the campaign,“Weve changed the culture of letting friends drive when theyre drunk. The message we want to convey now is that your involvement can make a difference.”The activity is winning support from all the walks of life. The medical pany Johnson&Johnson is providing funds. AOL is donating space for ads, a video feature on its home page. Magazines likeParentingas well as some newspapers nationwide will also run print ads free to spread awareness of the anti-bullying campaign.41.What is the purpose of the“BeMore Than a Bystander” campaign?A.To offer students advice on conflict management.B.To get rid of school bullying with the help of parents.C.To make the organizer bee better known.D.To inform parents of the risk of school bullying.42.What does the second paragraph mainly tell the readers?A.How the campaign works.B.Why the campaign is organized.C.What measures parents should take.D.How serious school bullying is now,43.What can we learn from the third paragraph about parents?A.They consider drugs, sex, drinking and driving as nothing serious.B.They often fail to give enough concern about school bullying.C.They often keep track of their kids behavior at school.D.They believe that their kids are free from school bullying.44.Ms Thomas think parents must get involved because they_A.are better at dealing with bullyingB.have better relationship with their kidsC.know much about the school cultureD.can have more influence on their kids45.According to the passage we can conclude that_A.school bullying will disappear in schoolB.Advertising Council can make some profitC.the media will contribute a lot in the campaignD.parents have done enough with bullyingDI live in the land of Disney,Hollywood and year-round sun, You may think people in such a splendid,fun-filled place are happier than others. If so, you have some mistaken ideas about the nature of happiness. Many intelligent people still equate happiness with fun. The truth is that fun and happiness have little or nothing in mon. Fun is what we experience during an act. Happiness is what we experience after an act. It is a deeper, more lasting emotion. Going to an amusement park or ball game, watching a movie or television, are fun activities that help us relax, temporarily forget our problems and maybe even laugh. But they do not bring happiness, because their positive effects end when the fun ends. I have often thought that if Hollywood stars have a role to play, it is to teach us that happiness has nothing to do with fun. These rich, beautiful individuals have constant access to glamorous parties, fancy cars, expensive homes, everything that spells“happiness”. But in memoir（回忆录）after memoir, they reveal the unhappiness hidden beneath all their fun: depression, alcoholism ,drug addiction, broken marriages, troubled children and profound loneliness. Ask a bachelor why he resists marriage, if hes honest, and he will tell you that he is afraid of making a mitment, for mitment is in fact quite painful. The single life is filled with fun, adventure and excitement. Marriage has such moments, but they are not its most distinguishing features. Similarly, couples that choose not to have children are deciding in favor of painless fun over painful happiness. They can dine out whenever they want and sleep as late as they can. Couples with infant children are lucky to get a whole nights sleep or a three-day vacation. I dont know any parent who would choose the word fun to describe raising children. Understanding and accepting that true happiness has nothing to do with fun is one of the most liberating（解放性的）realizations. It liberates time: now we can devote more hours to activities that can genuinely increase our happiness. It liberates money: buying that new car or those fancy clothes that will do nothing to increase our happiness now seems pointless. And it liberates us from envy: we now understand that all those rich and glamorous people we were so sure are happy because they are always having so much fun actually may not be happy at all.46. We can learn from the passage that _.A fun creates long-lasting satisfactionB Bfun provides enjoyment while pain leads to happinessC happiness is lasting whereas fun is short-livedD fun that is long-standing may lead to happiness47. To the author, the role Hollywood stars play is to _.A write memoir after memoir about their happinessB tell the public that happiness has nothing to do with funC teach people how to enjoy their livesD bring happiness to the public instead of going to parties48. In the authors opinion, marriage _ .A affords greater fun Cindicates duty and devotionB leads to raising children Dusually ends up in pain49. Which of the following is the best example of“painful happiness”?A Winning lottery by accident CRaising children B A bachelor resisting marriage DBuying some fancy clothes50. If one gets the true sense of happiness, he will _.A stop playing games and joking with othersB keep himself with his familyC give a free hand to moneyD use his time to increase happiness第II卷（非选择题 共35分）第三部分：写作（共两节，满分35分）第1节 阅读表达（本大题共5小题，共10.0分）Japanese bookseller Yoshiyuki Morioka has e up with a highly unusual concept (理念)for a bookstore - he sells one book at a time in a tiny shop located in Ginza, Tokyos luxury shopping district. Ever since he launched the store in May, he has stocked multiple copies of only one title per week.You might argue that its hardly a bookstore if you cant go in and spend at least a few hours looking through hundreds of books, but Morioka never intended to create a classic bookstore. Its like a weekly suggested reading service you just go in and pick up the book chosen for the week, relieving yourself of the burden of choice. Morioka said he came up with the idea - a store that only focused on one book at a time after organizing several book-launch events at his old bookstore.“Before opening this bookstore in Ginza, I had been running another one for 10 years,” Morioka told The Guardian. “There, I had around 200 kinds of books, and used to organise several book launches per year. During such events, a lot of people visited the store for the sake of a single book. As I experienced this for some time, I started to believe that perhaps with only one book, a bookstore could be managed.”The store itself is small, with a small table in the center displaying the title of the week.According to Morioka, his concept has an obvio
