For questions 1-7, mark:Y (for Yes) if the statement agrees with the information given in the passage;N (for No) if the statement contradicts the information given in the passage;NG (for Not Given) if the information is not given in the passage.For questions 8-10, complete the sentences with the information given in the passage.JealousyShes your best friend and you love her, honestly you do but then one day she wins the talent competition, and suddenly you cant stand to be around her anymore. Your stomach is all churned up (搅动) and you cant help thinking. “She thinks shes so great”, even though part of you know it isnt true.The green-eyed monsterWhen it comes to ruining friendships, few emotions beat the green-eyed monster, jealousy. What makes it so powerful and so potentially destructive? With everyone from parents to teachers to TV shows telling you to “just be yourself”, a sudden longing to be more like somebody else can be confusing! Your self-confidence suffers. You start worrying that youre not “good enough”, even though you were good enough just yesterday. Then the resentment (怨恨) creeps in (悄悄蔓延): “Shes so perfect! She gets everything, and I get nothing.” And to top it off (结束), you feel guilty, too. How can you resent someone elses success or good fortune like that especially if shes your friend? (What kind of person are you, anyway?) Between being down on yourself, resenting your friend, and the guilt, youre totally miserable and as if that isnt bad enough, your friendship suffers, too.Yet jealousy is perfectly normal. In fact, its a pretty safe bet that every single girl you know has felt it. After all, we live in a competitive world, where girls are expected to strive to be “the best” (even while theyre being themselves!). Seeing someone who is better at anything can sting (刺激), even if we know deep down that nobodys perfect.So what can you do about it? You cant help feeling jealous, right? Maybe not, but you can keep jealousy from running your life. The key is to stop it from turning into all those other thoughts and feelings. And the first step is to own up to (爽快承认) the feelingat least to yourself. Just admit it: Youre jealous! (Was that so hard?)The next step? Remind yourself that feeling jealous has nothing to do with being “good enough”. No matter how talented or beautiful or accomplished, every human being feels jealous sometimes, not just those of us who arent good enoughwhatever that means. If you can truly accept that everyone has both talents and flaws, youll see that its pointless to focus all your powerful energy on wishing you were someone more perfect, because theres just no such thing.Now lets go back to the idea that you cant help how you feel. Thats certainly true enough but you can help how you act on those feelings. If you want your friendships to survive the occasional attack of the green-eyed monster, its important to understand that jealousy is never an excuse for treating a friend badly. Is it your BFFs fault that she makes every basket she throws or can sing like Kelly Clarkson? Of course not! So dont pout (噘嘴) or brood (沉思) or bite her head off instead, turn that jealousy into a compliment. Did she make an awesome catch today? Does her new haircut make her look like a movie star? Tell her so! Believe it or not, youll feel better and she will, too.Dont try to convince anyone that youre perfectSometimes we feel as though we have to be perfect to be loved, but think about it: Do you want your friends to be flawless? Dont think so! So let you bud in on the truth: You face challenges and problems, just like anyone. If they know that your soccer skills come from years of practice (and many bruises), theyll be more likely to sincerely celebrate your successes on the field. If they know that you sometimes oversleep, look awful, or get in trouble, theyll sympathize when disaster strikes, instead of thinking, “Ha! She finally messed up!”Admire your friends strengthsWould you look away, unimpressed, if someone turned a flawless cartwheel? Of course not. Now take it one step further. If your best friend has beautiful hair, makes blueberry pancakes (烙饼) to die for, or knows exactly what to do in an emergency, tell her how much you admire those qualities. If she knows youre sincere, shell find it much easier to appreciate your talents without wishing they were her own.Never say, “Youre just jealous!”Even if its true, you wont gain anythingshell just be even more upset with you. Instead, give her some time to get over it. Soon shell be acting like herself again.Avoid the queen of jealousyIts easy to see that a friend who treats you badly because shes jealous and isnt acting like a friend. But what about a friend who looks up to you so much that she seems to think youre better than she is? Our advice: Be very careful. The adoration (崇拜) may be flattering at first, but that sort of friend may have dangerous self-esteem. Sooner or later, shes bound to start resenting you and taking it out on your friendship.Even in girls with lots of self-confidence, jealousy can sometimes spring up where you least expect it. But if you know how to handle it, the green-eyed monster doesnt have to threaten the friendships you care so much about. In fact, theres even some good that can come from jealousy. Think about it: That little sting of envy springs from deep admiration, right? So let that admiration spur (鞭策) you to action. If you admire your friends success at science competitions, consider your own talents and interests, and find a way to go after that kind of success for yourself. Instead of letting the green-eyed monster make you miserable, turn it to your advantage. In the long run, youll benefit and so will your friendships.( ) 1. Jealousy is the strongest emotion in ruining friendship.( ) 2. The competition in the life will strengthen the feeling of jealousy.( ) 3.You neednt admit the feeling that you are jealous, if you want to keep jealousyfrom running your life.( ) 4. Those talented people can be free from jealousy.( ) 5. If your friendship is attacked by the green-eyed monster, praise will be useful.( ) 6. The adoration will influence peoples friendship negatively.( ) 7. Sometimes we can also take advantage of jealousy.8. Even though we know deep down that nobodys perfect, seeing someone who is better at anything can _.9. Jealousy can sometimes _ where you least expect it. 10. If you can make good use of the green-eyed monster, you and your friendship _.得分Part Reading Comprehension (Reading in Depth)(本大题共30分，1- 10小题每小题1分，11- 20小题每小题2分)Section ADirections: In this section, there is a passage with ten blanks.

I had not been there for twenty years and as I walked along the street, my mind was flooded by memories of the past. I saw the old apartment building where I had lived and the playground where I had played. As I viewed these once familiar surroundings, images of myself as a child there came to mind. However, what I saw and what I remembered were not the same. I sadly realized that the best memories are those left untouched.My old apartment building, as I remember, was bright and alive. It was more than just a place to live. It was a movie house, a space station, or whatever my young mind could imagine. I would steal away with my friends and play in the basement. This was always exciting because it was so cool and dark, and there were so many things there to hide among. There was a small river in the back of the building. We would go there to lie in the shade of trees and enjoy ourselves.However, what I saw was completely different. The apartment building was now in disrepair. What was once more than a place to live looked hardly worth living in. The windows were all broken. The once clean walls were covered with dirty marks. The river was hardly recognizable. The water was polluted and the trees and flowers were all dead. The once sweet smelling river now smelled terrible. It was really heartbreaking to see all this.I do not regret having seen my old neighborhood. However, I do not think my innocent childhood memories can ever be the same. I suppose it is true when they say, “You can never go home again.”( ) 11.

I was coming out of a very bad marriage. For seven long years my husband spent his every waking moment telling me just what was wrong with me. When I finally asked for a divorce, he answered by telling me that I would never find anyone to love me because I was just so unattractive. This went on for about two years. One night one of my friends convinced me to go out with her. We went to a nightclub and that is when I met him.Clint was playing a game with a girl. I sat in the corner watching him. I didnt feel that I had whatever it took to get up and mix with others because of my self-esteem problem. Finally, I got up the courage to order a drink for him. When he got it, he gave me the most dazzling (感人的) smile. We spent the rest of the evening talking until I realized that it was almost morning. I figured that he was simply being nice to me because I had bought him a drink, but the very next day he called and told me that he could not stop thinking about me and that he wanted to meet my kids too.About 3 months later, my divorce was final and Clint sat my boys down and asked them if it was all right with them if he asked me to marry him because he could not imagine life without the three of us anymore. I was so touched that he went to my boys and asked for their approval because they were the “men of the house” at the ripe old ages of 2 and 4. They said yes and we have all been together ever since. Clint gave me and my boys a second chance at a wonderful life. Not a day goes by that he doesnt tell us that we are the best thing that ever happened to him and that he loves us.( ) 16.
