But they thought 36 . My complaints, repeating myself, even self-justified shouting were landing on 37 ears. I felt frustrated (沮丧的) , and very often a whole afternoon’s scolding would end with their 38 into tears, I realized I needed to 39 my methods of “mothering”. One day while they were at school, I had great fun 40 their rooms. On their desks, in plain 41 , I left the cards: “Dear Bill (the other card was 42 to Sarah), your room was messy this morning and I’m sure you like it clean. Love, the House Fairy.” 43 arriving back, the children were 44 excited to receive the little note from the House Fairy. The next day, their rooms were fairly tidy. Sure enough, there was another note from the House Fairy 45 for them, thanking them for their nice “gift” of a clean room and 46 asking them to play a certain violin 47 . Each day, thank--you notes would be worded differently to keep the ideas 48 . Sometimes the House Fairy would propose a little 49 : “If you can finish your homework today and 50 it before dinner, I’ d like to watch a particular television program with you tonight.” Sometimes some colored markers or other little items would be left in 51 of jobs especially well done the day 52 . 53 I can’t remember how long “the House Fairy” continued leaving her love notes. When they were no longer age appropriate (合适的), we used various versions of Post-Its. The bathroom mirror became the 54 centre of our home. Appointments, notices about visiting relatives, lesson schedules, and changes in plans could be posted. We all benefited from and 55 the idea of sharing reminders and daily details of life through notes. I believe the true legacy of the House Fairy notes survives in our frequent and enjoyable communication. 36. A. different B. no C. otherwise D. doubtful 37. A. side B. deaf C. neither D. either 38. A. crying B. breaking C. bursting D. bumping 39. A. adjust B. adopt C. access D. addict 40. A. to tidy B. tidying C. tidied D. tidy 41. A. distance B. words C. speech D. sight 42.

But don't carry something that blocks others' view. 3. Look all you want at the body shapes around you, but save some attention for the players' skills. Archery & shooting 1. Sit at the back or on either side of the field. For safety's sake, do not risk out of there. 2. Above all, keep quiet during the match. Put your cellphone on vibrate or turn it off. 3.

Fear and its companion pain are two of the most useful things that man and animals possess if they are used. If fire didn’t hurt when it burned, children would play with it until their hands were burned away. Similarly, if pain existed but fear didn’t, a child could burn itself again and again because fear would not warn it to keep away from the fire that had burnt it before. A really fearless soldier—and some do exist—is not a good soldier because he is soon killed; and a dead soldier is of no use to his army. Fear and pain are therefore two guards without which man and animals might soon die out. In our first sentence we suggested that fear ought to be properly used. If, for example, you never go out of your house because of the danger of being knocked down and killed in the street by a car, you are letting fear rule you too much. The important thing is not to let fear rule you, but instead, to use fear as your servant and guide. Fear will warn you of dangers; then you have to decide what action to take. In many cases, you can take quick and successful action to avoid the danger. For example, you see a car coming straight towards you; fear warns you, you jump out of the way, and all is well. In some cases, however, you decide that there is nothing that you can do to avoid the danger. For example, you cannot prevent an airplane crashing into your house, and you may not want to go and live in a desert where there are no airplanes. In this case, fear has given you its warning, you have examined it and decided on your course of action, so fear of the particular danger is no longer of any use to you, and you have to try to overcome it. 1. Children would play with fire until their hands are burnt away if _________. A. they were not well educated at school B. they had never played with fire before C. they had no sense of pain D. they were fearful of pain 2. People sometimes succeed in timely avoiding danger because _________. A. they have gained experience B. they are warned of the danger and take quick action C. they jump out of the way in time D. they are calm in face of danger 3. What is implied but not stated in the passage? A. Too much fear is harmful B. Fear is always something helpful C .Fear is something that can be avoided D. Fear ought to be used as our guide in our life 4.The best title for this passage should be __________. A. No Pains, No Gains B. Pain and Actions C. The Value of Fear D .The Reason Why People Fear

Well before the 15th century, an Anglo-Saxon custom required that a prospective bridegroom break some highly valued personal belonging. Half of the broken token was held by the father of the bride and the other half by the groom. A wealthy man was expected to split a piece of gold or silver. The earliest engagement rings were also used as wedding rings, serving to seal an act of sale which transformed ownership of a daughter from father to husband. Such rings were usually of solid gold to prove the groom’s worth. For Roman Catholics, the engagement ring became a required statement of Nuptial intent（结婚意向）, as decreed by Pope Nicholas I in 860 A.D. The engagement ring was to be of valued metal, preferably gold, which for the husband-to-be represented a financial sacrifice. Signifying enduring love, and chosen for its durability, the diamond was chosen for the engagement ring. The diamond’s fire is also associated with “love’s clear flame,” given by Medieval Italians because of their belief that the diamond was created from the flames of love. The Venetians were the first to discover that the diamond is one of the hardest, most enduring substances in nature, and fine cutting and polishing releases the brilliance. Rarity and cost limited their rapid proliferation（急增） throughout Europe but their intrinsic（内在的） appeal guaranteed them a future. By the 17th century, the diamond ring had become the most sought after statement of European engagement. 1. Who kept the two halves of the engagement rings before marriage? A. The bride’s father and the bridegroom’s mother. B. The bride’s mother and the bridegroom. C. The bride and the bridegroom. D. The bridegroom and the bride’s father, 2. What’s TRUE about the early Anglo-Saxon custom before the 15th century ? A. A will-be bridegroom should beat all his valuable belongings. B. Every will-be bride should split a piece of gold. C. The engagement rings were also used to prove the groom’s worth. D. A rich bride should break one of her most valuable personal belongs. 3. Pope Nicholas made the engagement ring a required statement of nuptial intent ______. A. in the 15th century B. over 1,000 years ago C .in the 1860s D. by the 17th century 4. What kind of engagement ring has been the most popular one in Europe ? A. Rings made of gold B. Rings made of silver C. Rings made of diamond D. Rings made of an unknown substance in nature.

Although women lead healthier, longer lives, the cruel perception that they reach their sell-by date and become “old” sooner than men is widespread in the workplace, research shows. A survey of more than 2,600 managers and personnel professionals showed that age discrimination is not only common in the workplace, but is full of inconsistencies(矛盾). Six in ten managers thought that they had suffered from age discrimination——usually because they were turned down for a job for being too old or too young. Yet more than a fifth admitted that they used age as a condition when they employ new workers. Although the survey found widespread agreement that older workers were better than younger colleagues when it came to reliability, commitment, loyalty and customer service, these qualities were not necessarily considered to be worthy of advancement. More than half of respondents believed that workers between 30 and 39 were the most likely to be advanced in their company, with only 2 per cent citing (引证)50-year-olds or above. Dianah Worman of the Chartered Institute of Personnel and Development said that there was anecdotal evidence that people were considered old at different ages in different sectors. “We heard of one man working in IT who said he was considered too old by the age of 28,”she said.“There was no evidence to suggest that older workers were less valuable to companies than younger workers, in fact the opposite was often true because older workers often brought experience.” she added. The findings also suggested that the Government’s ideas on age in the workforce may also be out of step with reality. 1. The text is mainly about ______. A. the government’s idea on age in workforce B. age discrimination in the workforce C. the people who find work D. the discussion about who is worth promoting 2. Which of the following statements is true according to the text? A. Women get older than men though they are healthier. B. Sixty percent of the managers were refused because they were too older. C. Young workers are more valuable to companies than the older ones. D. The people in their thirties are easier to be promoted than those in their fifties. 3. The underlined word “sell-by date” in paragraph 1 probably refers to______. A. the age when they retire B. the age when they should be promoted C. the date on which they’re sold D. the date when they sell goods
