Kindness is the golden chain by which society is bound together. However, I was not thinking about the golden chain when I had to help people who 36 their way and parked in front of my house. I was growing tired of helping so many people. Almost every 37 I was awaken during a sound night’s sleep and had to 38 someone out.

One day, a young man with a week – old beard climbed out of a 41 automobile. He had no money and no food. He asked if I could give him some 42 , offer him gasoline and a meal. I told him that if he wanted to work for me, he could cut the grass, but 43 the work wasn’t necessary. Though sweaty and hungry, he worked hard. After working all day, he sat 44 to cool himself. I thanked him for his work and gave him the money he 45 . I then offered him some 46 money for a task particularly well done, but he shook his head, 47 . I never saw him again.

I wish I could thank him for 51 some of my belief in the basic 52 of others and for giving me back a little of the 53 I had lost.

A boy was born to a couple after eleven years of marriage. They were a loving couple and loved the boy very much. When the boy was around two years old, one morning the husband saw a medicine bottle open. He was late for work so he asked the wife to cap the bottle and keep it in the cupboard. The mother, preoccupied in the kitchen, totally forgot the matter. The boy saw the bottle and playfully went to the bottle and, fascinated with its color, drank it all. It happened to be a poisonous medicine meant for adults in small dosages. When the child collapsed, the mother hurried him to the hospital, where he died. The mother was stunned. She was terrified how to face her husband. When the distraught father came to the hospital and saw the dead child, he looked at his wife and uttered just four words. The husband just said ‘I am with you, Darling’. The husband's totally unexpected reaction is proactive behavior. The child is dead. He can never be brought back to life. There is no point in finding fault with the mother. Besides, if only he have taken time to keep the bottle away, this will not have happened. No point in attaching blame. She had also lost her only child. What she needed at that moment was consolation and sympathy from the husband. That is what he gave her. If everyone can look at life with this kind of viewpoint, there would be much fewer problems in the world. Take off all your envies, jealousies, unforgiveness, selfishness, and fears and you will find things are actually not as difficult as you think. Sometimes we spend time asking who is responsible or whom to blame, whether in a relationship, in a job or with the people we know. By this way we miss out some warmth in human relationship. 56．The uncapped medical bottle was not put back into the cupboard because . A．the husband was careless B．the husband was busy C．the wife wasn’t informed of the matter D．the wife ignored the matter 57．What do we know about the bottle? . A．It contained poison only for adults B．It appeared like a nice drink C．It was broken by the child D．It was kept in the kitchen 58．The husband’s attitude towards his wife can be described as . A．optimistic B．confident C．considerate D．generous 59．What did the writer intend to tell us about life? . A．Let go the negative side and we can enjoy life. B．It is always useless finding who is responsible C．Think of nothing and life will be easy D．Life should give way to responsibility

Homebuyers nationwide are watching housing prices going up, up, and up. “How high can they go?” is the question on everyone’s lips? “As long as interest rates stay around 5 percent, there’s no telling,” remarked one realtor in Santa Monica, California. “It’s crazy,” said Tim, who is looking for a house near the beach. “In 1993, I bought my first place, a two-bedroom condominium in Venice, for $70,000. My friends thought then that I was overpaying. Five years later, I had to move. I sold it for $230,000, which was a nice profit. Last year, while visiting friends here, I saw in the local paper that the exact same condo was for sale for $510,000!” It is a seller’s market. Homebuyers feel like they have to offer at least 10 percent more than the asking price. Donna, a new owner of a one-bedroom condo in Venice Beach, said, “That’s what I did. I told the owner that whatever anyone offers you, I’ll give you $20,000 more, under the table, so you don’t have to pay your realtor any of it. I was tired of looking.” Tim says he hopes he doesn’t get that desperate. “Whether you decide to buy or decide not to buy, you still feel like you made the wrong decision. If you buy, you feel like you overpaid. If you don’t buy, you want to kick yourself for passing up a great opportunity.” Everyone says the bubble(泡沫) has to burst sometime, but everyone hopes it will burst the day after they sell their house. Even government officials have no idea what the future will bring. “All we can say is that, inevitably, these things go in cycles,” said the state director of housing. “What goes up must come down. But, as we all know, housing prices always stay up a little higher than they go down. So you can’t lose over the long run. Twenty years down the road, your house is always worth more than you paid for it.” 60．If Tim had sold his flat last year, he could have earned . A．$ 510,000 B．$ 440,000 C．$ 280,000 D．$ 160,000 61．Donna paid another $ 20,000 to the owner secretly because . A．she felt like offering 10% more B．secret money made low price C．the owner asked for the money D．she was bored with bargaining 62．We can infer from Tim’s words in paragraph 4 that . A．homebuyers feel hesitate facing rising house prices B．buying a house is always a great opportunity C．homebuyers never make the right decision D．both sellers and buyers become desperate 63．What is the author’s opinion about the housing bubble? A．It is something everyone hates to see B．Only experts know when it will burst C．It is unavoidable in the regular circles D．It usually stays for about twenty years

As AH1N1 flu continues to spread, experts from the World Health Organization are calling for everyone to practice smart flu prevention techniques. Besides washing your hands and getting enough sleep, here are the other 7 ways to keep your body strong and your immune (免疫) system ready to fight infection. Avoid Contact with Sick PeopleFlu virus is spread when particles (微粒) blown into the air through a cough or sneeze reach someone else’s nose.

Eat Immune – Boosting Foods Keeping your body strong and ready to fight infection is important in flu prevention. Fatty foods can make you feel lazy, and make your immune system working in an inactive and compromised way. So stick with wholes grains, colorful vegetables, and vitamin – rich fruits.

So avoid alcohol to keep your immune system strong. Drink Enough Water Drink 8 – 10 glasses of water each day to wash out poisonous things from your system and maintain system in a good state, Keep Physically Active Adequate exercise – for example walking for 30 to 40 minutes 3 or 4 times a week – supports the immune system by increasing circulation, speeding the body’s oxygen – taking – in, taking away poisonous things through sweat, and releasing tension and stress. So get moving! Be Careful of Surfaces This is as much a mindfulness exercise as anything else.

Neatness and personal cleanness have been around for ages and have become an important part of everyone’s daily routine. You might think that all modern societies would have the same neatness and personal cleanness practices. After all, doesn’t everybody take baths? Most people do recognize the need for cleanness, which is the basis for health. Neatness practices include all the little things people do to make themselves look their best, such as combing their hair and putting on makeup. However, while most modern people agree that these things are important, people in different cultures take care of themselves in different ways. There used to be an old joke in America that people should take a bath once a week, whether they need one or not. In fact, though, Americans generally take a bath or more commonly, a shower every day. But in contrast to some cultures, most Americans get their shower in the morning so that they can start the day fresh. Americans are known for having very sensitive noses. In America, body smell is socially unacceptable. For that reason, Americans consider it a must to use special lotion (浴液) to prevent the smell. Ladies often add a touch of perfume. Men may spray on after – shave cream or manly – smelling perfume. Some of the cultural varieties in neatness practices result from physical differences between races. Whereas many Asian men have little facial hair, Westerners have a lot. As a result, most American men spend some time each day shaving or tidying their facial hair to keep it nice. American women, on the other hand, generally prefer not to be hairy at all. Americans put great value on both neatness and personal cleanness. For some people, taking care of themselves has become almost a religion. As the old saying goes, “Cleanness is next to godliness.” Whether or not being clean and neat – looking brings one closer to God, it certainly at least brings one closer to others. Americans look down on people who don’t take care of themselves, or who “let themselves go.” 68．We can infer from the first paragraph that . A．everyone takes baths daily to get a nice look. B．people have the same neatness practices today. C．neatness practices may be affected by cultures. D．neatness means combing hair and doing makeup. 69．Americans have a bath in the morning to . A．begin an energetic day B．refresh their sensitive noses C．prevent their body smell D．style their hair at home 70．According to the author, physical differences between races can cause differences in . A．cultures B．locations C．religions D．neatness practice 71．The underlined phrase in the last paragraph means “ ”. A．care much about themselves B．give loose to themselves C．stay away from other people D．stay closer to other people

NANJING, June 13,2009 (Xinhua) – China will see the longest total solar eclipse (日食) in 500 years on July 22, a scientist said Saturday. The most important time of the total eclipse was expected to begin from 9:00 a.m. to 9:38 a. m. (Beijing Time), said Wang Sichao, a research fellow with the Nanjing – based Purple Mountain Observatory under the Chinese Academy of Sciences. “The total eclipse will l ast up to six minutes, which is the longest one that can be seen in China in almost 500 years from 1814 to 2309,” Wang said. He said viewers in parts of eleven provinces in China's southwestern, central-southern and eastern areas, such as Tibet, Hunan and Jiangsu, will be able to witness the total solar eclipse, while in most parts of Shanghai, viewers can see the spectacular phenomenon. For viewers in other provinces, including Beijing, they can observe a partial eclipse, he said. A solar eclipse occurs when the moon is caught between the sun and the earth while each of them moves along their fixed orbits. In a total solar eclipse, the sun, the moon and the earth are directly aligned as the sun swings into the cone of shadow cast by the moon. Wang said the next total solar eclipse that can be seen in China will fall on March 20 th, 2034. "But it can only be seen remote provinces, such as Tibet and Qinghai. It cannot not be compared with the upcoming one -- in terms of duration and number of cities that can see the eclipse," he added. The last total solar eclipse visible in China took place on Aug. 1 last year. It was observed in northwest China and lasted two minutes in Yiwu County of northwestern Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region, the best place to see the phenomenon. 72．According to the report, the total eclipse on July the 22 nd will last . A．over a month B．about 38 minutes C．about 6 minutes D．less than 30 minutes 73．Viewers can possibly witness the total solar eclipse in .

任务型读写（共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分） 阅读下面短文，根据所读内容在表格中的空白处填入恰当的单词。注意：每个空格只填一个单词。 You may admire both the romantic love story and the mysterious city of Rome in the movie Roman Holiday. If you are planning to visit Rome, here are some cultural dos and don’ts you should know. Coffee Etiquette: Italian breakfast consists of pastry and a cup of Cappuccino or shot of espresso. If eaten outside of home, breakfast is always consumed standing up at the local bar. An espresso is not sipped; it is downed in one gulp. Cappuccino is generally a morning drink and is not drunk after noon by real Italians. A post-dinner espresso, however, is common practice. Dinner Rules: It is expected for guests to arrive for dinner reservations at least fifteen minutes late. In many restaurants, printed menus are for tourists. Regular patrons know to ask for the daily specials, which typically feature the freshest ingredients. Bread, when served, is rarely accompanied by butter or olive oil. Drink the Water: Rome has plenty of public water fountains, and real Romans (and their dogs) always drink directly from them. Many people also refill their water bottle from these fountains. Mind the Traffic: Unless there's a traffic light, or you are in a crosswalk, don't expect cars to stop for you. Though crosswalks go first, in a car – crazy city, still you’d better keep cautious and walk cautiously. Money: Always have some euros with you. Most major hotels, restaurants, and shops take credit cards, but many smaller operations either will either be unwilling to accept them for smaller purchases or do not accept credit cards at all. ATMs are available around the city and at the airports. About Soccer: Most Italian men are passionate about their soccer. Arm yourself with some knowledge of Italy's soccer scene, and you will find ready conversation partners almost everywhere. The Romans: The people here love to share their thoughts, opinions and emotions. They are creative, passionate, playful, occasionally rude or vain but always entertaining, and almost always good – humored.
