(15%)People often drop into a dim life and are unable to pull themselves out. There once was a poor and frustrated salesman who always _21_ every day that there was no platform for him to show his ability and the fate was unfair to him.At Christmas Eve, every family _22_ their houses with lanterns and colored paper and it was very festive everywhere. But he sat alone in a bench in a park and _23_ the past. It was on the same day last year when he was also alone _24_ his Christmas day away, without new clothes, new shoes, let alone a new car and a new house.“Damn! I have to spend this Christmas day with these old shoes again.” He sighed and began to _25_ the old shoes. Suddenly, he _26_ a young man in a wheel chair passing by him with his hands difficultly pushing the wheel forward. It struck on him _27_ he was so lucky to have shoes to wear while that man did not even have the _28_. Afterwards, the salesman did _29_ positively and cherished every chance to improve himself. He worked hard and tried his best to make _30_ every day. Several years later, he finally changed his life and became a millionaire.If you _31_, you will find there are so many people who were born _32_ in the society but they are confident in life and never complain about the _33_ fate. They are also not to beg others charity. Instead, they constantly strive to make themselves stronger and more excellent to serve the society. By contrast, we should feel ashamed. We are born healthy, but we are _34_ with life; we complain about our colleagues and dissatisfy with our jobs. Maybe all of us would feel afraid when we realize we have fallen into such _35_ state of life, but worse is you even do not realize you have fallen into such a dangerous situation. 21.

Reading comprehension. (30%)A One day an ant was drinking at a small stream and fell in. She made desperate efforts to reach the side, but made no progress at all. The poor ant was almost exhausted but still bravely did her best when a dove saw her. Moved with pity, the bird threw her a blade of grass, which supported her like a raft, and thus the ant reached the bank again. While she was resting and drying herself in the grass, she heard a man come near. He was walking along barefooted with a gun in his hand. As soon as he saw the dove, he wished to kill it. He would certainly have done so, but the ant bit him in the foot just as he raised his gun to fire. He stopped to see what had bit him, and the dove immediately flew away. It was an animal much weaker and smaller than herself that had saved her life.36. The dove saved the ant because _.

A. the dove immediately flew away B. the dove hid himself in the grass C. the ant told the dove to leave at once D. he felt something biting him in the foot38. In writing the story, the writer wants to show _. A. how clever the ant was B. how kind the dove was C. how the ant and the dove helped each other D. we often need help from others, therefore we should help others as much as we canB My color television has given me nothing but a headache. I was able to buy it a little over a year ago because I had my relatives give me money for my birthday instead of a lot of clothes that wouldnt fit. I let a salesclerk fool me into buying a discontinued model. I realized this a day late, when I saw newspaper advertisements for the set at seventy-five dollars less than I had paid. The set worked so beautifully when I first got it home that I would keep it on until stations signed off for the night. Fortunately, I didnt get any channels showing all-night movies or I would never have gotten to bed. Then I started developing a problem with the set that involved static (静电) noise. For some reason, when certain shows switched into a commercial, a loud noise would sound for a few seconds. Gradually, this noise began to appear during a show, and to get rid of it, I had to change to another channel and then change it back. Sometimes this technique would not work, and I had to pick up the set and shake it to remove the sound. I actually began to build up my arm muscles shaking my set.When neither of these methods removed the static noise, I would sit helplessly and wait for the noise to go away. At last I ended up hitting the set with my fist, and it stopped working altogether. My trip to the repair shop cost me $62, and the set is working well now, but I keep expecting more trouble.39. Why did the author say he was fooled into buying the TV set? A. He got an older model than he had expected. B. He couldnt return it when it was broken. C. He could have bought it at a lower price. D.

B. By turning it on and off. C. By switching channels. D. By having it repaired.42. How does the author sound when telling the story? A. Curious B. Anxious C. Cautious D. HumorousC Your house may have an effect on your figure. Experts say the way you design your home could play a role in whether you pack on the pounds or keep them off. You can make your environment work for you instead of against you. Here are some ways to turn your home into part of diet plan. Open the curtains and turn up the lights. Dark environments are more likely to encourage overeating, for people are often less self-conscious when theyre in poorly lit places-and so more likely to eat lots of food. If your home doesnt have enough window light, get more lamps and flood the place with brightness. Mind the colors. Research suggests warm colors fuel our appetites. In one study, people who ate meals in a blue room consumed 33 percent less than those in a yellow or red room. Warm colors like yellow make food appear more appetizing, while cold colors make us feel less hungry. So when its time to repaint, go blue. Dont forget the clock or the radio. People who eat slowly tend to consume about 70 fewer calories per meal than those who rush through their meals. Begin keeping track of the time, and try to make dinner last at least 30 minutes, And while youre at it, actually sit down to eat. If you need some help slowing down, turn on relaxing music. It makes you less likely to rush through a meal. Downsize the dishes, big serving bowls and plates can easily make us fat. We eat about 22 percent more when using a 12-inch plate instead of a 10-inch plate. When we choose a large spoon over a smaller one, total intake jumps by 14 percent. And well pour about 30 percent more liquid into a short, wide glass than a tall, skinny glass.43. The text is especially helpful for those who care about_.A. their home comforts B. their body shapeC. house buying D. healthy diets44. A home environment in blue can help people_.A. digest food better B. reduce food intakeC. burn more calories D. regain their appetites45. What are people advised to do at mealtimes?A. Eat quickly. B. Play fast music.C. Use smaller spoons. D. Turn down the lights.46. What can be a suitable title for the test?A. Is Your House Making You Fat? B. Ways of Serving DinnerC. Effects of Self-Consciousness D. Is Your Home Environment Relaxing?D Transparent animals let light pass through their bodies the same way light passes through a window. These animals typically live between the surface of the ocean and a depth of about 3,300 feetas far as most light can reach. Most of them are extremely delicate and can be damaged by a simple touch. Sonke Johnsen, a scientist in biology, says, “These animals live through their life alone. They never touch anything unless theyre eating it, or unless something is eating them.” And they are as clear as glass. How does an animal become see-through? Its trickier than you might think. The objects around you are visible because they interact with light. Light typically travels in a straight line. But some materials slow and scatter light, bouncing it away from its original path. Others absorb light, stopping it dead in its tracks. Both scattering and absorption make an object look different from other objects around it, so you can see it easily. But a transparent object doesnt absorb or scatter light, at least not very much, Light can pass through it without bending or stopping. That means a transparent object doesnt look very different from the surrounding air or water. You dont see it -you see the things behind it. To become transparent, an animal needs to keep its body from absorbing or scattering light. Living materials can stop light because they contain pigments(色素) that absorb specific colors of light. But a transparent animal doesnt have pigments, so its tissues wont absorb light. According to Johnsen, avoiding absorption is actually easy. The real challenge is preventing light from scattering. Animals are built of many different materials-skin, fat, and more-and light moves through each at a different speed. Every time light moves into a material with a new speed, it bends and scatters. Transparent animals use different tricks to fight scattering. Some animals are simply very small or extremely flat. Without mu
