As a daughter, she has no secrets from her mother, who is very pleased with her. But recently she has become somewhat mysterious, not so open as before: what if she falls in love, which is too early for a girl of her age. After all, she is reaching the “dangerous stage”. These thoughts have caused trouble in the mother mind. One weekend the girl came to tell her mother that she was going to the cinema with her schoolmates and would return late. This was the first time her mother had agreed , and she couldnt help worrying because her daughter had never been away at night before. The mother waited till nine and her uneasiness(不安) got the upper hand over her. She decided to go out to meet her daughter. Just at that moment the noise of a car pulling up drew her to the window and -there was her daughter, waving goodbye to a boy. Her heart missed a beat. When the girl came in, the mother was watching TV, pretending nothing had happened. “Mum, Im back.” “Yeah.” “Sorry to be late. Still sitting up?” “Yes, Oh, that Whos that boy?” The daughter was stunned (发愣) for a moment. “Ah. Its my monitor. He gave a lift on his way home. Mum, Im going to bed” “All right. Go to sleep early.” Next morning, when the mother went to the daughters room to do some tidying, she found her diary left at her pillow.

C20,000 Leagues Under the Sea is one of those classics that has so made its influence upon Science Fiction and popular culture that one neednt have read the book to know its features: the dark genius-Captain Nemo; the futuristic Nautilus with its thousands of strange inventions and capabilities; and giant octopi（章鱼） that can drag a ship down to the abyss（深渊）. In fact, this book is so foreseeing into modern culture that, even more than 120 years after its first publication, it yet deserves examination. This examination is guaranteed because Jules Verne was so greatly insightful(具有远见的) about future technology and human interaction with it. Although recognizable submarines(潜艇) had been kicking around since the 18th century, it was Verne who pictured this invention on a big scale(规模). He equipped his Nautilus with newborn technologies (like electricity), and carefully researched and described the possibilities (the Nautilus gets all of its electrical power from chemical reactions using seawater). In a word, the Nautilus was the first, detailed picture of a submarine. However, reasonable science, excellent research and fantastic voyages dont always make great stories. 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea deserves praise for its futuristic insight and its contributions to the establishment of Science Fiction, but its not the most attractive. Basically plotless, the Nautilus adventures, though interesting, are put together without any sense of overall architecture, making the story a very long travelogue. Its time has passed - its examinations of biological wonders are from the eye of 19th-century Europe, which substituted overall killing for respect and tried to plant its flag on any new land mass, regardless of who might already live there. Fascinating at first, the book becomes tiresome, but is in the end saved, for it is a lesson on how to build solid facts into solid futurism. 43. Jules Verne might _.A. be the man who constructed the first submarine. B. be the writer of the novelC. be able to produce electricity using seawater D. be an inventor in the novel 44. According to this passage, 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea is great because _.A. it is a long travelogue. B. it was written in the 19th century. C. it described fantastic voyages. D. it shows great insight into future technology. 45. Which of the following CANNOT be inferred from the passage? A. The 19th-century Europe showed little respect for life in a new land. B. Some technologies described in science fiction may eventually be realized. C. Captain Nemo must be an European. D. 18th century people didnt know what electricity was. 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2项为多余项。（注意：本题答案填写在第二卷的相应位置上）Weight loss is a hard topic.

We have both achieved success and suffered from failure. Different students take different attitudes to failure in the examinations.Some fall in low spirits when they dont do well in the exams. They usually lose heart and no longer make further efforts in their studies. As a result their studies go from bad to worse with time passing on.But some students take quite positive attitudes towards failure. They encourage themselves to be self-confident. At the same time, they spare no efforts in analyzing the causes of the failure in order to avoid the mistakes of the same type.As far as Im concerned, I firmly believe in the motto: Failure is the mother of success. So long as we can find out the root cause of our failure and step up our efforts to improve our way of learning, we can surely make great progress and turn our final aims into realities.听力材料:Text 1M: Do you have a single room available?W: For how many nights?M: Two at least.Text 2W: Hi, where are you going?M: To the library.W: Are you going to borrow some books?M: No. I left my keys there.Text 3M: How do you fight a cold?W: I dont depend on medicine.
