This was the morning, when Jeremy, l4 years old, was to begin his duck shooting. He had   31  the whole idea ever since his father had bought him  32  and had promised him a __33__to this island. But he loved his father and wanted to  34  him.

They came to the beach. To ease the sense of fear, he took a  35   of his father, then he put the camera aside and picked up the gun.

“What happened?  43   didn’t you shoot?” his father said in a controlled voice. The boy didn’t answer. His lips were trembling.

“Because they were so  44  ,” he said and burst into tears. He sat down, face buried in his hands and wept. All  45  of pleasing his father was gone. He had his chance and he failed  .

第三部分 阅读理解(共20小题;每小题2分,满分40分)

第一节 阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

A

When I was a kid, I always used to wonder how in the world my father work outside in the winter without a coat. It could be minus 20 degrees centigrade and there’d be Dad, removing snow, or perhaps chopping some wood --- his coat thrown aside--- wearing a shirt , a cap, and a pair of gloves.

“Aren’t you cold, Dad?” I’d ask. “No,” Dad would reply. “I’m not cold--- working too hard to be cold.”

Many times I wondered whether my father was an extremely tough man, or whether he was foolish.

One time when I was quite young, perhaps five or so, I went ice fishing with Dad. It was a bright, clear day—and bitterly cold.

After we’d been out on the ice for a little while, my feet started getting cold.

“ Daddy, my feet are cold.” I said.

“Yeah, it’s cold out here today,” he replied.

“Tell you what,” he said. “Walk around. Make some circles in the snow. See how many different patterns you can make. That will get your feet warm.”

Now, I was just a little girl at the time but I remember thinking, “How in the world will walking around in the snow make my feet warm? Dad must be out of mind.

But he was my father, after all. I made circles in the snow. I made squares. Pretty soon I was having so much fun making patterns in the snow. I forgot about my feet being cold.

Now, all these years later, I know, too, from personal experience how my father was able to take his coat off and work outside in the winter wearing just a shirt, a cap and gloves. Because I do it, too. “Aren’t you cold?” my husband asked one winter day. “No,” I replied. “I’m not cold—working too hard to be cold.”

I hope my husband has decided I’m both tough and smart. But I guess quite a bit of the time he thinks I’m foolish.

Wherever Dad is in that great big farm in the sky—I’m sure he can’t help but smile whenever I take my coat off while I’m working outside in the winter.

51. When the author’s feet felt cold, her father advised her to____.

A. go home alone first        B. keep walking in the snow

C. draw pictures in the snow    D. light a fire on the ice

52. Hearing her father’s advice, the author thought her father____.

A. forgettable      B. warm-hearted         C. crazy              D. cruel

53. What might the author’s husband think of her?

A. Tough            B. Smart                    C. Brave             D. Foolish

54. The author’s purpose of writing this passage is to ______.

A. remember her tough and smart father

B. show how her father cared about her

C. describe memories of her childhood

D. explain why her father loved her so much

We are so used to having a cup of tea before heading off to work, during work or after getting back from work. Tea breaks are more like a custom that takes place regularly several times a day. This tea break tradition has been happening during the past 200 years or so. Tea just happens to be a wonderful drink for most of us. The day simply feels incomplete without a hot cup of tea. However, is tea good for you?

In 2006, the papers were flooded with the news of research showing that drinking 2-3 cups of tea a day is as beneficial as drinking water, with even some additional health benefits. Another report published in November 2009, stated that drinking up to eight cups of tea a day is good for you. The research conducted by nutrition expert Dr. Carrie Ruxton, debunked (揭示…的真相)the popular stories about caffeinated(含咖啡因的)drinks like tea, coffee and cocoa. According to Dr. Ruxton, the caffeine present in tea tends to lower the risk of heart attacks and strokes. She says that drinking 8 cups of tea a day gives the drinkers “the best levels of health-giving substances” present in tea and other caffeinated drinks.

Contrary to popular belief that tea does not contain more caffeine than coffee, it actually contains almost half the amount. Caffeine is a natural thing found in many types of food and drink. It’s also something that can give you a much needed lift for a demanding and tiring afternoon ahead. Research shows that proper amounts of caffeine are safe for most people.

So why not take full advantage of your tea breaks at work, or make time for afternoon tea while out shopping at the weekend? And remember that tea is not just a great drink, but it helps to keep you looking and feeling healthy.

59. What is mainly talked about in the first paragraph?

A. The types of tea.  B. The tea custom     C. How to drink tea    D. When to drink tea.

60. Reports in the newspapers show that ______.

A. drinking tea is a healthy habit                 B. new ways of drinking tea appear

C. drinking tea is harmful to health             D. people don’t like to drink tea any more

61. Caffeine in tea ____.

A. can make you energetic                       B. gives you a good rest

C. may cause heart attacks                       D. is more than that in coffee

62. What would be the best title for the passage?

A. Tea and disease                                   B. Tea—a healthy drink 

C. Tea, coffee and cocoa                          D. Drink tea or coffee

A proverb(谚语) is a short , well-known saying that expresses a common truth or belief. Proverbs are popular around the world. Many proverbs give advice on how to live. Some proverbs are hundreds of years old, but they are still used today.

For example, my son is just like his father in many ways. We often say the two of them prove the proverb that the apple does not far from the tree.

My daughter is very short. She would like to be taller. But I tell her that good things come in small packages. Some valuable things are very small, like diamonds and other jewels. But I also tell my children that all that glitters is not gold. Something may look valuable, but may not really be valuable. Also, I tell them do not judge a book by its cover. You should not judge something only by its appearance.

Sometimes I tell my children to cooperate to solve a problem. After all, two heads are better than one. But another proverb says too many cooks spoil the soup. If too many people try to do something, then the job will not be done well.

I also tell my children that two wrongs do not make a right. You should not do something bad just because someone did the same to you.

Some people are pessimists while other people are optimists. Pessimists always think about how bad things are or will be; optimists might say that every cloud has a silver lining and they always look on the bright side. Other people are both pessimists and optimists. They hope for the best and prepare for the worst.

Some people often worry about what they will do in a situation that might happen in the future. We could tell them do not cross that bridge until you come to it.

It is usually much better to prevent a problem from happening than it is to find ways to solve it. So we say an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.

63. The author often comforts her daughter with the proverb that ____.

A. the apple doesn’t fall far from the tree.

B. good things come in small packages

C. too many cooks spoil the soup

D. two heads are better than one

64. If someone says “two heads are better than one”, he means____.

A. jobs will be done better if two work together

B. a problem will be solved easily by many people

C. jobs won’t be done well if there are too many people

D. you can’t do something bad even if someone else does it

65.The underlined word “pessimists” in the sixth paragraph refers to those people_____.

A. who always look on the bright side

B. who always expect bad things to happen

C. who are always full of hope for the future

D. who always make preparations for the worst

66. Which of the following are optimists likely to say?

A. An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure

B. We hope for the best and prepare for the worst

C. Don’t cross the bridge until you come to it.

D. Every cloud has a silver lining

An old sea captain was often seen opening a small locked box, and looking inside. The crew’s curiosity grew and, on the day he retired, they rushed to cut the lock. There they found a sheet of paper that read, “Left—port(左舷). Right--- starboard(右舷).”

Are you afraid to make a mistake? If you made mistakes recently, maybe you need to hear about Roy Riegels.

The story is told about Roy and the 1929 Rose Bowl championship football game between Georgia Tech and the university of California. Shortly before halftime, Roy Riegels made a huge mistake. He got the ball for California and somehow became confused and started running in the wrong direction! One of his teammates tackled(抢断) him after he had run 656 yards, just before he would have scored for the opposing team. Of course, Georgia Tech gained a distinct(明显的) advantage through the error.

After the first half was over, Riegels sat in a corner, put his face in his hands and wept.

Coach Nibbs Price struggled with what to do with Roy. He finally looked at the team and said simply, “Men, the same team that played the first half will start the second.”

All the players except Roy went to the field. Though the coach looked back and called to him again, he remained seated in the corner. Coach Price went to him and said, “Roy, didn’t you hear me?”

“Coach,” he said, “I can’t do it. I’ve ruined you; I’ve ruined the school; I’ve ruined myself.”

But the coach Price put his hand on Riegels’ shoulder and said,” Roy, get up and go on back; the game is only half over.”

Roy Riegels went back and those Tech men will tell you that they have never seen a man play football as well as Roy Riegels played that second half.

The next time you make a mistake, it might be good to remember the ABC method.

A—Acknowledge(admit) your error and accept responsibility for it. Don’t try to fix the blame on other people or circumstances(客观环境). When you fix the blame, you never fix the problem.

B—Be gentle with yourself. The game is only half over. This is not the first mistake you ever made, nor will it be the last. You are still a good and caring person. Besides, later you may laugh at the mistake, so try to lighten up a bit now.

C—Correct it and move on. Correcting mistakes may also mean to amends(弥补过错),if necessary.

Now, go make your mistakes. And if you practice the ABC method, you’ll live to laugh about many of them.

67. The old captain kept a sheet of paper to_____.

A. give his men a lesson

B. arouse his crew’s curiosity

C. prove he was a good captain

D. tell “port” and “starboard” apart

68. From the passage we learn Coach Price______.

A. insisted on replacing Roy

B. decided to punish Roy after the match

C. criticized Roy for his serious mistake

D. encouraged Roy to finish the match

69. How was Riegels’ performance in the second half?

A. Very disappointing  B. Rather excellent  C. Fairly ordinary  D. Quite bad

70. The ABC method_____.

A. advised you to try to forget mistakes

B. helps you deal with mistakes 

C. helps find out the causes of mistakes

D. advised you to be strict with yourself.
