One day while she was walking in the woods she found two starving songbirds. She took them home and put them in a small cage, caring them with love. Luckily, the birds grew strong little by little. Every morning they greeted her with a wonderful song. The girl felt great love for the birds. One day the girl left the door to the cage open accidentally. The larger and stronger of the two birds flew from the cage. The girl was so frightened that he would fly away. So as he flew close, she grasped him wildly. Her heart felt glad at her success in capturing him. Suddenly, she felt the bird go weak, so she opened her hand and stared in horror at the dead bird. It was her desperate love that had killed him. She noticed the other bird moving back and forth on the edge of the cage. She could feel his strong desireneeding to fly into the clear, blue sky. Unwillingly, she lifted him from the cage and threw him softly into the air. The lucky bird circled once, twice, three times. The girl watched delightedly at the bird. Her heart was no longer concerned with her loss. What she wanted to see was that the bird could fly happily. Suddenly the bird flew closer and landed softly on her shoulder. It sang the sweetest tune that she had ever heard. Remember, the fastest way to lose love is to hold on it too tight; the best way to keep love is to give it wings! 21. After the girl found the two birds, she _. A. became frightened at onceB. began to treat them badly C. greeted them happilyD. fed them and raised them 22. Why did the girl grasp the stronger bird wildly? A. Because the girl disliked the bird any longer B. Because the bird wanted to fly alone. C. Because the girl loved the bird deeply. D. Because the bird intended to find some food. 23. What can we learn from the passage? A. Catch what you can catch on your way to success. B. Going too far is as bad as not going far enough.C. A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush. D. East or west, home is best. B Considering Australias size and the fact that early settlements were far apart, Australian society is remarkably homogeneous (同种的). Its citizens are fundamentally prosperous and the way of life in the major cities and towns is much the same however many miles divide them. It takes a sharp ear to identify regional accents. However, there is some difference in lifestyle between city settlers and the country people. Almost 90 percent of the population lives in the fast-paced cities along the coast and has little more than a passing familiarity with the desert. The major cities preserve images of colonial heritage, but the overall impression is modem, with new buildings reflecting the countrys youth. In contrast, the rural communities tend to be slow-moving and conservative. For many years, Australia was said to have “ridden on the sheeps back” , a reference to wool being the country s main money earner. However, it is no longer dominant (主宰的). Much of Australias relatively sound economy is now achieved from natural coal and wheat, and by being the largest diamond producer in the world. Newer industries such as tourism and wine making are also increasingly important. Australians are generally friendly and relaxed, with a modest sense of humor. Yet, contrary to widespread belief, very few Australians have true prisoner origins. Within only one generation of the arrival of the First Fleet in 1788, Australia had become a nation of immigrants. Originally coming almost entirely from the British Isles, today one in three Australians comes from elsewhere. Australias liberal postwar immigration policies led to a flowing of survivors from war-torn Europe, most notably Greeks, Italians, Poles and Germans. The emphasis has shifted in recent years and today the majority of new immigrants are from Southeast Asia. Today Australia is a “mixture of nations” and although some racism exists, it has generally been a successful experiment and the country is reasonably proud to have one of the most harmonious multicultural communities in the world. 24. What does the writer mean by saying “has little more than a passing familiarity with the desert” in the second paragraph? A. The major population has a close relationship with the desert. B. The fast-paced cities are just located by the desert. C. The major population knows little about the desert. D. The major population is familiar with the people living in the desert. 25. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage? A. The pace of life in the city is different from that in the country. B. One third of people living in Australia come from Europe. C. The Australian economy is dependent on sheep exports. D. Most Australians have ancestors who were prisoners. 26. What used to be Australia s main money earner? A. Wheat. B. Wool. C. Tourism. D. Diamond. 27. We can infer from the passage that _. A . immigrants from Europe have brought racial problems B . nothing about Australias colonial part in modem cities can be seen by visitors C . tourism and wine making resulted in fast development in rural communities only D. Australias recent immigration policy encourages immigrants from Southeast Asia C British singer Sarah Brightman began training for a 2021 flight to the International Space Station where she hopes to become the first professional musician to sing from space, the company arranging the trip said on Tuesday. Brightman, a famed soprano (女高音) who starred in Andrew Lloyd Webbers “Phantom of the Opera” , will pay about $ 52 million for a 10-day stay aboard the orbital outpost, Tom Shelley, president of privately owned Space Adventures, said. Brightman, who will become the eighth privately funded space tourist, is scheduled to fly in September 2021. Her training to fly on a Russian Soyuz capsule began last fall. Brightman has planned to be the first professional musician to sing from space. But she faces competition from Lady Gaga, who, according to media reports late last year, intends to be the first when she performs one song in space in early 2021 on a Virgin Galactic flight. Virgin Galactic, part of Richard Bransos Virgin Group, plans to offer suborbital (亚轨道的) space flights. Brightman said in 2022 that she would travel to the space station, but her plans havent been confirmed until now. So far. Space Adventures has arranged for nine private missions to the space station, a $ 100 billion research laboratory that flies about 260 miles above the earth. Microsoft co-founder Charles Simonyi made two trips. Brightman will be the first private citizen to visit the station since Cirque du Soleil founder Guy Lalibarte paid about $ 35 million for an 11-day stay in September 2009. Google co-founder Sergey Brin has an option to fly on the next available Soyuz seat after Brightman, which most likely will be in 2021, Shelley told Reuters. 28. What is the purpose of the passage? A. To praise Brightman. B. To persuade the readers that Brightman is more famous than Lady Gaga. C. To instruct the readers how to begin a space flight. D. To give some information about Brightman. 29. When did Brightman start training for her space travel? A. Last winter.B. Last autumn.C. Next spring.D. Next summer. 30. The underlined word “she” in Paragraph 4 refers to _. A. BrightmanB. Lady GagaC. Andrew Lloyd WebberD. Tom Shelley 31. The fifth paragraph is mainly carried out _. A. in time orderB. in space order C. by giving examples D. by comparison D Some kinds of mental skills naturally decrease as people get older. Yet research seems to show that some training can improve such skills. A recently published study also appears to attest that the good effects of training can last for many years after that training has ended. Researchers at Johns Hopkins University in Maryland wanted to learn how long memory and thinking skills would last in older people who were trained to keep them. The people were part of the ten-year research project. They were taught methods meant to improve their memory, thinking and ability to perform everyday tasks. More than 2,800 volunteered for the study called ACTIVEshort for Advanced Cognitive Training for Independent and Vital Elderly. Most were studied when they were more than 70 years old. The volunteers took one of several short training classes meant to help them keep their mental abilities. One class trained participants in skills including how to remember word lists. Another group trained in reasoning. A third group received help with speed-of-processingspeed of receiving and understanding information. A fourth groupthe control group did not get any training. Earlier results had established that the training helped the participants for up to five years. Now, leading study writer George Rebok says, the research showed most of the training remained effective a full ten years later. Professor Rebok and his team found that the people trained in reasoning and speed-of- processing did better on tests than the control group. “We are wondering whether those effects which endured over time would still be there ten years following the training, and in fact, thats exactly what we found.” The effect on memory, however, seemed not to last as long. Still, the old people in any of the three classes generally reported less difficulty in performing daily activities than the control group. The total training time for the older people was between 10 and 15 hours. 32. Which statement is false according to the text? A. This kind of training can only have effects on people for a few years. B. The people were trained during a period of ten years. C. Most of the people who were studied were more than 70 years old. D. The first group were trained how to remember word lists. 33. How would the old in the second group perform after receiving the training? A. Remember more words. B. Understand information more quickly. C. Act as poorly as before. D. Perform daily activities better. 34. What does the underlined word “attest” in the first paragraph mean? A. Affect. B. Deny. C. Prove. D. Improve. 35. Which of the following can be the best tide for the passage? A. Some Kinds of Mental Skills Naturally Decrease. B. Mental Training Helped Elderly Stay Sharp for Years. C. Four Groups of Old People Were Trained Mentally. D. A Ten-year Research Affects Elderly. 其次节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）依据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填人空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Many people think that they have to accept whatever life throws at them. Theyll say, “This is my fate. I cannot change it.” 36 You dont have to suffer needlessly. Your fate depends on you, not on any other outside factors. We want to be happy and live our life to the fullest, but we have to do our share of making the effort to live the life of our dreams. 37 You just dont sit around and wait for a million dollars to fall from the sky. You have to get off the couch, get your eyes off the TV screen, get your hands off the phone (unless it contributes to your success), and get your mind and body to work. If your life is not meant the way you want it to be, dont just say: “Our time will come.or 38 Dont expect your luck to change, unless you do something about it.” If something goes wrong, dont just regard it as a temporary setback; but use it as feedback. Learn your lesson, make the most of the situation, and do something to solve the problem. Its not enough to think positive; you also have to act positive. If someones life is in trouble, do you just hope and pray that things will turn out fine? Of course not! 39 So it is with your own life. It is not enough to hope for the best, but you have to do your best. In other words, dont just stand (or sit) there. 40 A. I think so. B. Of course not. C. Youd better let it be. D. Things will get better some day. E. Do something to improve your life. F. Remember that you harvest what you sow. G. Youve got to do anything you can to save the person. 第三部分 英语学问运用（共两节，满分45分） 第一节完形填空（共20小题；每小题1.5分，满分30分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中，选出可以填人空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。 A new mother was anxious to see her newly-born baby.
