In particular, there was (and perhaps still is) a belief in fairies(仙女). Not all of these 21 are the friendly, people-loving characters that appear in Disney films, and in some folktales they are 22 and cause much human suffering. This is true in the tales about the Changeling. These tell the story of a mother whose baby grows 23 and pale and has changed so much that it is almost 24 to the parents. It was then 25 that the fairies had come and stolen the baby away and 26 the human baby with a fairy Changeling. There were many ways to prevent this from happening: hanging a knife over the babys head while he slept or covering him with some of his fathers clothes were just two of the recommended 27 . However, hope was not lost even if the baby had been 28 . In those cases there was often a way to get the 29 baby back. You could 30 the Changeling on the fire-then it would rise up the chimney, and you would hear the sound of fairies laughter and soon after you would find your own child safe and sound nearby.21.

For example, the proverb, “plucking up a crop 32 (help) it grow”, is based on the following story. It is said that a shorttempered man in the Song Dynasty (9601279) was very anxious to help 33 rice crop grow up quickly. He was thinking about 34 day and night. But the crop was growing much slower than he expected. One day, he came up with an idea 35 he would pluck up all of his crop a few inches. He did so the next day. He was very tired 36 doing this for a whole day, 37 he felt very happy since the crop did “grow” 38 (high). His son heard about this and went to see the crop. Unfortunately the leaves of the crop began to wither.This proverb is saying we have to let things go in their 39 (nature) course. Being too anxious to help an event develop often 40 (result) in the contrary to our intention. 阅读（共两节。满分40分）阅读理解（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分）阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D项中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。ALisa was running late.

But as she hurried down the subway stairs， she started to feel uncomfortably warn. By the time she got to the platform，Lisa felt weak and tired-maybe it hadnt been a good idea to give blood the night before，she thought. She rested herself against a post close to the tracks. Several yards away，Frank，43，and his girlfriend，Jennifer，found a spot close to where the front of the train would stop. They were deep in discussion about a house they were thinking of buying. But when he heard the scream，followed by someone yelling，“Oh，my God，she fell in!” Frank didnt hesitate. He jumped down to the tracks and ran some 40 feet toward the body lying on the rails. “No! Not you! ”his girlfriend screamed after him. She was right to be alarmed. By the time Frank reached Lisa，he could feel the tracks shaking and see the light coming. The train was about 20 seconds from the station. It was hard to lift her. She was just out. But he managed to raise her the four feet to the platform so that bystanders could hold her by the grins and drag her away from the edge. That was where Lisa briefly regained consciousness，felt herself being pulled along the ground，and saw someone else holding her purse. Lisa thought shed been robbed. A woman held her hand and a man gave his shirt to help stop the blood pouring from her head. And she tried to talk but she couldnt，and that was when she realized how much pain she was in. Police and fire officials soon arrived，and Frank told the story to an officer. Jennifer said her boyfriend was calm on their 40-minute train ride downtownjust as he had been seconds after the rescue，which made her think about her reaction at the time. “I saw the train coming and 1 was thinking he was going to die，”she explained. 41. What was the most probable cause for Lisas weakness?A. She had run a long way. B. She felt hot in the subway. C. She had done a 1ot of work. D. She had donated blood the night before. 42. Why did Jennifer try to stop her boyfriend?A. Because they would miss their train. B. Because he didnt see the train coming. C. Because she was sure Lisa was hard to lift. D.

The passage is intended to _A. warn us of the danger in the subwayB. show US how to save people in the subwayC. tell US about a subway rescueD. report a traffic accidentBA few years ago I had an “aha!” moment regarding handwriting. I had in my hand a sheet of paper with handwritten instructions on it for some sort of editorial task. It occurred at first that I did not recognize the handwriting，and then I realized whose it must be. I finally became aware of the fact that I had been working with this colleague for at least a year，maybe two，and yet I did not recognize her handwriting at that point. It was a very important event in the computerization of lifea sign that the informal. Friendly communication of people working together in an office had changed from notes in pen to instant messages and emails. There was a time when our workdays were filled with little letters，and we recognized one anothers handwriting the way we knew voices or faces. As a child visiting my fathers office，1 was pleased to recognize，in little notes on the desks of his staff，the same handwriting 1 would see at home in the notes he would leave on the fridgeexcept that those notes were signed “dad” instead of “RFW”. All this has been on my mind because of the talk about The Rise and Fall of Handwriting，a book by Florey. Sire shows in her book a deep concern about the fall of handwriting and the failure of schools to teach children to write well，but many others argue that people in a digital age cant be expected to learn to hold a pen. I dont buy it. I dont want to see anyone cut off from the expressive，personal associations that a pen still promotes better than a digital keyboard does. For many a biographer，part of really getting to know their subjects is learning to read their handwriting. What some people advocate is teaching one of the many attractive handwritings based on the handwriting of 16th-century Italy. That may sound impossibly grandas if they want kids to learn to draw by copying classical paintings. However，they have worked in many school systems. 46. Why was the author surprised at not recognizing his colleagues handwriting?A. He had worked with his colleague long enough. B. His colleagues handwriting was SO beautiful. C. His colleagues handwriting was SO terrible. D. He still had a 1ot of Work to do. 47. People working together in an office used to _. A. talk more about handwritingB. take more notes on workdaysC. know better one anothers handwritingD. communicate better with one another48. The authors father wrote notes in pen _. A. to both his family and his staffB. to his family in small lettersC. to his family on the fridgeD. to his staff on the desk49. According to the author，handwritten notes _. A. are harder to teach in schoolsB. attract more attentionC. are used only between friendsD. carry more message50. We can learn from the passage that the author _. A. thinks it impossible to teach handwritingB. does not want to lose handwritingC. puts the blame on the computerD. does not agree with FloreyCNapoleon, as a character in Tolstoys War and Peace, is more than once described as having “fat little hands. Nor does he “sit well or firmly on the horse. He is said to be “undersized. with“short legs and a “round stomach”. The issue here is not the accuracy of Tolstoys description-it seems not that far off from historical accounts but his choice of facts：other things that could be said of the man are not said. We are meant to understand the difference of a warring commander in the body of a fat little Frenchman. Tolstoys Napoleon could be any man wandering in the streets and putting a little of powdered tobacco up his noseand that is the point.It is a way the novelist uses to show the moral nature of a character. And it turns out that, as Tolstoy has it, Napoleon is a crazy man. In a scene in Book Three of War and Peace, the wars having reached the critical year of 1812,Napoleon receives a representative from the Tsar(沙皇), who has come with peace terms. Napoleon is very angry：doesnt he have more army? He, not the Tsar, is the one to make the terms. He will destroy all of Europe if his army is stopped. “That is what you will have gained by engaging me in the war!” he shouts. And then, Tolstoy writes, Napoleon “walked silently several times up and down the room, his fat shoulders moving quickly. Still later, after reviewing his army amid cheering crowds, Napoleon invites the shaken Russian to dinner. “He raised his hand to the Russiansface,” Tolstoy writes, and “taking him by the ear pulled it gently.” To have ones ear pulled by the Emperor was considered the greatest honor and mark of favor at the French court. “Well, well, why dont you say anything? said he, as if it was ridiculous in his presence to respect any one but himself, Napoleon. Tolstoy did his research, but the composition is his own.51. Tolstoys description of Napoleon in War and Peace is _.A. far from the historical factsB. based on the Russian historyC. based on his selection of factsD. not related to historical details52. Napoleon was angry when receiving the Russian representative because _.A. he thought he should be the one to make the peace termsB. the Tsars peace terms were hard to acceptC. the Russians stopped his military movementD. he didnt have any more army to fight with53. What did Napoleon expect the Russian representative to do?A. To walk out of the room in anger.B. To show agreement with him.C. To say something about the Tsar.D. To express his admiration.54. Tolstoy intended to present Napoleon as a man who is _.A. ill-mannered in dealing with foreign guestsB. fond of showing off his iron willC. determined in destroying all of EuropeD. crazy for power and respect55. What does the last sentence of the passage imply?A. A writer doesnt have to be faithful to his findings.B. A writer may write about a hero in his own way.C. A writer may not be responsible for what he writes.D. A writer has hardly any freedom to show his feelings.第二节信息匹配（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）阅读下列应用文及相关信息，并按照要求匹配信息。请在答题卡上将对应题号的相应选项字母涂墨。首先请阅读下列国外媒体上的插图及提示性文字：A. B.

But when I first entered the college, I found that some boy students seemed indeed to be more intelligent and much quicker at understanding than girl students. I felt somewhat inferior, and I began to doubt whether I could succeed. Are men and women really equal in intelligence? I am often troubled by the question. Then I happened to got hold of a book about Madame Curie. I was deeply impressed by her strong will power. Madame Curie worked hard so she became a top student in her university. After graduation she became a well-known physicist and some years later she got the Nobel Prize.From then on, she became a great encouragement to me in my study. Where there is a will, there is a way. At last I became the top student in my class and got the first prize in the English and physics competitions. This made me feel certain that women are no less clever than men. Besides, I was also active in physical exercises. I joined the track and field team and took part in ping-pong competitions. I was really proud of myself for being the womens all-round champion in the sports meeting of our college. This proved again that a girl can do just as well as a boy. 写作内容(1) 以约30个词概括短文的要点；(2) 然后以约120个词就“妇女在社会中的地位”的主题发表看法，并包括如下要点： 男人能干的事女人照样能干，女人可以当工人、科学家乃至领导； 女人在家庭中的地位也有了改善，妻子和丈夫在家庭中地位平等； 还有人认为男人比女人强并应享有更多的权利，比如很少有女人被准许参加一些重要的国际会议； 你对此的看法。写作要求(1) 可以使用实例或其它论述方法支持你的论点，也可以参照阅读材料的内容，但不得直接引用原文中的句子；(2) 标题自定。评分标准概括准确，语言规范，内容合适，篇章连贯。_ 参考答案：答案解析：21.
