I have a friend named Monty Roberts who owns a horse ranch(牧马场). He has let me use his __16__ to raise money for youth at risk programmes.
The last time I was there he told me his story. When he was young, his family was too __17__ to have a house to live in. As a __18__， when he was asked to write a paper about __19__ he wanted to be and do when he grew up in high school, he wrote a seven­page paper describing his goal of __20__ a horse ranch. He also drew a picture to show a 4，000­square­foot house that would sit on a beautiful farm. The next day he handed it in to his __21__. Two days later he received his paper back. On the front page was a large red F. Roberts asked, “Why did I receive an F？” His teacher said, “This is a(an) __22__ dream for a young boy like you. Owning a horse ranch requires a lot of money.” Then the teacher added, “If you rewrite this paper with a more realistic goal, I will reconsider your __23__.”
The boy went home and thought about it for a __24__ and hard time. He asked his father what he should do. His father said, “Look, son, you have to __25__ your own mind on this.” Finally, after sitting with it for a week, the boy handed in the same paper, making no __26__ at all. He told his teacher，“You can keep the F and I __27__ keep my dream.”
He told me this __28__ because I was sitting in his 4，000­square­foot house in the middle of his 200­acre horse ranch. He said a lot of kids’ __29__ could be stolen. Don’t let anyone steal your dreams. Follow your heart, no matter what happens. __30__ he had enough gumption(毅力) not to give up his dream.

Akuapem is in the eastern part of Ghana. The sun there shines all the time. The local people are very friendly and hospitable(好客的). Now let’s have a look at how Akuapem people receive a visitor.
A visitor is often welcomed warmly in a family of Akuapem. After the visitor is welcomed into the house, he is offered a seat and water at the very beginning, because the host assumes that the visitor must have come from a very long journey and need water. If there is a group of visitors, the host will greet the visitors from right to left. And the host shakes only with his right hand, because Akuapem people think the left hand is not clean.
Next, the visitor is asked how his journey was and why he has come. While the conversation is going on, the wife and the children, especially girls, are preparing food for the visitor. The visitor can choose his favourite food. After the visitor finishes eating, the host and the visitor go on with their conversation. Usually this is a short one because the visitor is getting ready to say goodbye.
When the visitor is leaving, he is often given some food. He is also accompanied(陪伴) by one of the children to the nearest station. The child who accompanies the visitor will not come back home until the visitor leaves safely.
Whether he is a close friend or just a stranger, this is always how friendly Akuapem people receive a visitor.

A. thinks　 B. remembers
C. disagrees　 D. follows
(D)34.Which of the following is TRUE to the passage?
A. The host talks little with the visitor.
B. The child accompanies the visitor to the gate of the house.
C. The host offers the visitor a seat only.
D. The visitor takes some food with him when he leaves.
(B)35.From the passage we know that Akuapem people are ________.

【解析】文章大意：本文是一篇说明文。介绍了加纳东部的阿夸佩姆族，太阳常年照射此地，当地的人们热情好客。并详细介绍了阿夸佩姆族的人们是如何接待客人的，首先客人被热情地迎进房子，接下来入座、倒水、问候、握手以及客人走的时候主人是如何送别客人的。
33．词义猜测题。A项：想；B项：记得；C项：不同意；D项：遵从。根据文章第二段中的“After the visitor is welcomed into the house, he is offered a seat and water at the very beginning...”可知，客人一来，他就会被提供一个座位和水。同时根据句子“...the visitor must have come from a very long journey and need water.”可知，因为主人认为客人一定是经过长途跋涉，所以需要水。故选A。
34．推理判断题。题干意为：根据短文，下面哪一句是正确的？A项：主人和客人很少交流。根据第三段的第一句“Next, the visitor is asked how his journey was and why he has come.”可知，谈话不少，故排除选项A；B项：孩子陪着客人去大门口。根据第四段的第二句“He is also accompanied by one of the children to the nearest station.可知，并不是送客人到大门口，故排除选项B；C项：主人只提供给客人座位。根据第二、三段可知主人为客人提供很多东西，故排除选项C；D项：当客人离开时，会带走一些食物。根据文章第四段第一句“When the visitor is leaving, he is often given some food.”可知，当客人走的时候，主人经常会给他们一些食物。故选D。
35．细节理解题。A项：吵闹的；B项：友好的；C项：不礼貌的；D项：安静的。根据文章第一段的第三句“The local people are very friendly and hospitable.”可知，阿夸佩姆族的人们是友好的。故选B。

In 2002, I wrote a letter for my future self with instructions not to open until my birthday 2014. It is 2014 now. Yesterday was my birthday and I opened it. This is what it said：
Dear Sherri，
By the time you read this, you will be 30. At the age of 18 I had many dreams about you. Right now I hope you have travelled and seen everything you’ve always wanted to, both in Canada and abroad, maybe you have even settled__down somewhere in France, and maybe you are working in the field of art. I hope you’re married to Gwynn—the man of your dreams. You’ll probably have two children—a girl and a boy.
If everything goes okay, you’ll be living in France in a big house in a small town with Gwynn and your two children. You are doing research in painting. Gwynn will be a computer programmer and you will be doing all right for yourselves.
However, if things don’t go according to plan, I wish you love, happiness and joy.
Love，
Sherri “18”
When I read this, I was surprised. So much of what I wanted has come true.
I did travel to a few more places in Canada. I’ve travelled to the UK, Australia and Egypt. I have been living in France for nearly 4 years in a big house, in a small suburb(郊区), in a major city. I am an art teacher in a university. I have two lovely kids.
But not everything went as what I hoped. I married a man named Tom Rees, and he is an excellent artist. We are doing all right for ourselves.
I find it cool how the dreams of a young girl can become a grown woman’s reality(现实)．
(A)36.How long did Sherri wait to open the letter?
A. For 12 years.　 B. For 18 years.
C. For 30 years.
(C)37.What does the underlined phrase “settled down” mean in Chinese?

C. 定居
(C)38.Among her dreams, which one did NOT come true?
A. To work in the field of art.
B. To be a mother of two kids.
C. To marry a computer programmer.
(B)39.What can we infer(推断) from the passage?
A. She plans to move to the UK later.
B. She enjoys the life with her family now.
C. She loses hope because not everything goes well.
(B)40.What is the best title for this passage?
A. Dream on the Way
B. Dream and Reality
C. How to Achieve Your Dream
【解析】文章大意：本文是一篇记叙文。作者在2002年的时候，给未来的自己写了一封信，这封信直到2014年30岁生日时才能打开。信中的自己提出了种种希望，设计了种种梦想。2014年的今天，当作者打开当时的这封信时，发现许多梦想已经成真，还有许多梦想并未按自己设想的实现。作者认为这是一件特别美好的事情，不管现实是怎样，拥有爱情、幸福和欢乐才是最应该实现的梦想。
36．数字计算题。题干意为：Sherri等了多长时间才打开了这封信？A项：12年；B项：18年；C项：30年。从文章第一段可知，作者2002年写的这封信，直到2014年生日才打开它，期间共经历了12年。故选A。
37．词义猜测题。文中原句是“...maybe you have even settled down somewhere in France...”，文章第六段第三句话提到“I have been living in France for nearly 4 years in a big house...”。由此推知，“settle down”与“live in”同义。故选C。
38．推理判断题。题干意为：在她的梦想中，哪个没有实现？A项：在艺术领域工作；B项：成为两个孩子的妈妈；C项：和一个计算机程序设计师结婚。从文章第七段第二句话“I married a man named Tom Rees...”可知，作者原来想嫁给Gwynn，这个人有望成为程序设计师，但后来嫁给了Tom Rees。因此，嫁给计算机程序设计师这个愿望没有实现。故选C。
39．推理判断题。题干意为：从这篇文章我们可以推断到什么？A项：她打算随后搬到英国；B项：现在她喜欢和家人在一起的日子；C项：她失去了希望，因为并不是每件事都朝好的方向发展。从第七段最后一句“We are doing all right for ourselves.”说明，作者认为自己现在做的一切都还不错。因此推知，作者对现在的生活比较满意。故选B。
40．标题概括题。A项：梦想在路上；B项：梦想和现实；C项：怎样实现你的梦想。文章前半部分谈论自己12年前写给自己的信，提到了种种梦想；文章后半部分谈论如今的现实，比较哪些梦想实现了，哪些还没有实现。由此可见，文章通过对比的写作手法，比较了梦想与现实之间的不同。故选B。
D
Is there intelligent (有智力的) life on other planets? For years, scientists said “no，” or “we don’t know.” But today this is changing. Seth Shostak and Alexandra Barnett are astronomers(天文学家). They believe intelligent life exists(存在) somewhere in the universe. They also think we will soon contact these beings(人；生物)．
Why do Shostak and Barnett think intelligent life exists on other planets? The first reason is time. Scientists believe the universe is about 12 billion years old. “This is long enough for other planets to have intelligent life，” say Shostak and Barnett. The second reason is size—the universe is huge. “Tools like the Hubble Telescope(哈勃望远镜) have shown that there are at least 100 billion galaxies，” says Shostak. “And our galaxy, the Milky Way, has at least 100 billion stars. Some planets going around these stars might be similar to Earth.”
In the past, it was hard to look for signs of intelligent life in the universe. But now, powerful telescopes(高倍望远镜) allow scientists to discover smaller planets—the size of Mars or Earth—in other solar systems. These planets might have intelligent life.
Have beings from space already visited Earth? “Probably not，” says Shostak. “It’s a long way away. However, intelligent beings may contact us in other ways, such as radio signals(信号). In fact, they may be trying to communicate with us now, but we don’t have the right tools to receive their messages. However, this is changing. By 2025, we could make contact with other life__forms in our universe and we might help each other.”
(A)41.Seth Shostak and Alexandra Barnett are ________.
A. astronomers　 B. farmers
C. singers　 D. drivers
(C)42.What is the best title for Paragraph 2?
A. The Age and Size of Earth
B. Our Galaxy: The Milky Way
C. Why Intelligent Life Might Exist
D. Earth: The Only Planet with Intelligent Life
(B)43.Why was it hard to look for signs of intelligent life in the universe in the past?
A. There were not any smaller planets.
B. There were not any powerful telescopes.
C. The astronomers were not interested in them.
D. The Milky Way didn’t exist at that time.
(B)44.Why haven’t beings from space visited us yet according to Shostak?
A. They’re afraid of us.
B. It’s a long way away.
C. They don’t want to see us.
D. They don’t know how to use radio signals.
(C)45.What does the underlined phrase “life forms” in the last paragraph mean?
A. Messages.　 B. Tools.
C. Intelligent beings.　 D. Radio signals.
【解析】文章大意：本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍的是其他星球上的智力物种，科学家相信在宇宙中的某个地方存在这些智力物种，人类在不久的将来会与它们取得联系。
41．细节理解题。A项：天文学家；B项：农民；C项：歌唱家；D项：司机。本题题干中的关键词是Seth Shostak and Alexandra Barnett两个名字。因此定位于文章的第一段第四句“Seth Shostak and Alexandra Barnett are astronomers.”可知，答案选A。
42．段落大意题。A项：地球的年龄和大小；B项：我们的星系：银河系；C项：为什么说智力生物可能会存在；D项：地球：唯一有智力生物存在的地方。根据文章第二段第一句话“Why do Shostak and Barnett think intelligent life exists on other planets？”可以判断出，本段的核心内容为阐述为何这两名天文学家相信其他星球存在智力物种。故选C。
43．细节理解题。题干意为：为什么在过去很难在宇宙中找到智力物种存在的印记？A项：因为那时没有更小的星球；B项：因为那时没有高倍望远镜；C项：因为那时天文学家对它们不感兴趣；D项：因为那时还不存在银河系。本题题干中的关键词为hard to look for signs of intelligent life in the past。因此定位于文章的第三段第二句“But now, powerful telescopes allow scientists to discover smaller planets...”可以判断出，主要原因是过去没有高倍望远镜。故选B。
44．细节理解题。A项：因为它们害怕我们；B项：因为距离太远了；C项：因为它们不想见我们；D项：因为它们不会使用无线电信号。本题题干中的关键词为beings from space visited us。因此定位于文章的最后一段第三句话“It’s a long way away.”可知，选B。
45．词义猜测题。A项：信息；B项：工具；C项：智力生物；D项：无线电信号。根据文章最后一句中life forms前的“contact”以及“other”这两个词，同时对比本段第四句话“...intelligent beings may contact us in other ways...”可以判断出life forms就是指intelligent beings。故选C。
