第二部分 阅读理解（共两节，满分60分）
第一节 （共15小题；每题3分，满分45分，）金太阳新课标资源网A
Children, especially boys, tend to idealize their fathers when they are young．Every little boy wants to grow up to be just like his father, and every little girl thinks her father is the smartest man on the earth．It’s not very easy to be a good father, but it’s not that difficult either．Children will truly enjoy spending time with their fathers, not just when they are kids, but even when they are adults．
Not all children communicate well with their fathers．Communication is often left to mothers, while fathers dispense advice as and when necessary．Don’t expect all conversations to centre around the dinner table．Go to your children’s bedrooms and talk to them about school, their teachers or their friends．Remember that the conversation cannot be one-sided．When your children open up to you, you also need to open up to them．
If your children come home from school feeling upset, go up to them and ask them what is the matter．And if it is something which seems to you to be a silly reason to be upset, don’t voice your opinion．It may be silly to you, but to your children it is important enough．So don’t wave the topic away by telling them not to bother about such stupid things．Simply discussing their problems with them will help them feel better．
Don’t shy away from having discussions about your teenage children’s love lives．Generally speaking, your children are definitely not going to discuss intimate details with you．Try to let them know that you are relaxed about topics on love．Tell your children how you met your wife．It is perfectly normal for children to go through feelings for the opposite sex as they grow up, and by keeping the topic closed for discussion, you are only shutting them off from discussing their feelings with you．All they will do is turn to their friends．
36．To children their fathers are usually very _____．
A．kind B．great C．serious D．strong
37．From the second paragraph we can know that _____．
A．some children don’t like their fathers at all
B．talking with children around the dinner table is unnecessary
C．it is better for fathers to communicate more with their children
D．mothers should communicate less with their children．
38．Suppose your children are worried about something you should _____．
A．have a talk with them Ｂ．express your opinion
C．keep silent D．let them alone
39．Which of the following has the closest meaning to the underlined word “intimate” in Paragraph 4?
A．public B．personal C．strange D．serious

Giant sunflowers? Maybe you like potatoes, tomatoes, or carrots．Or maybe you prefer green leafy house plants, tiny plants in a container, wildflowers that you can dry to save, or a butterfly garden．
Whatever you hope to grow, knowing some gardening basics will give you a much better chance of success．
First you will need to choose a good location for your garden．A sunny location usually works best, since all plants need some sunlight and most plants like lots of it．However, there are some plants that need only indirect sunlight, and these plants will do best in shady spots．
Check soil too．The best kind of plant soil is called loam （肥土）; it is loose soil that crumbles （弄碎） easily．Water drains through it well, and it has lots of nutrients to feed your plants．Soil that sticks together might have too much clay in it．Very loose, dry soil might have too much sand．You can improve the soil in your garden by adding organic materials such as compost, or leaves．金太阳新课标资源网
Climate—Check a map of planting zones to choose plants that are right for your area．
Mulch （翻盖物）—After you have planted your plants, add a layer of mulch on top of the soil．Mulch keeps the soil damp, keeps out pests, and adds more nutrients to the soil．
Water – Water your plants early in the day．Plants need about 1 inch of water each week on average．
Fertilizer – If you are planting a big garden, use about 1/2 pounds per 100 square feet．If you are just planting a few plants, get a little container of plant food and follow the directions on the label．Plant fertilizer contains the chemicals that make up a plant’s diet．
44． What is the text mainly about？
A．Plants you prefer B．A garden with plants
C．Some gardening basics D．Giant sunflowers
45．Which of the following statements is TRUE?
A．Not all plants need sunlight． B．Water your plants at night
C．As much fertilizer as possible is needed to any plant．
D．Good soil is easy to break up with many nutrients．
46．Why do you put a layer of mulch on top of the soil?
A．To keep the soil dry B．To keep the soil wet
C．To keep more pests D．To keep more nutrients out

JAKARTA, INDONESIA ---Walking with long steps and his smile lighting up a rainy afternoon, Barack Obama seems to have arrived to visit a school he attended as a boy．But wait．He’s not real Obama．The US president is back in Washington, D．C．．
So who is this guy？He’s IIham Anas，34，magazine photographer who has taken advantage of his perfect resemblance （相像） to Obama and turned it into his own wealth．[来
Since 2007, Anas’ s face and big smile have been seen on Southeast Asian TV and the Internet, and in advertisements．Anas’s resemblance to the president has turned his life around 180 degrees．
When his sister first mentioned the resemblance, Anas dismissed it．Then a friend asked him to pose as Obama in front of a US flag．He also refused．“I’m a photographer, not an object for the camera,” he said．
However, as soon as he accepted the idea, his career took off．The father of two children is rarely at home these days．Recently a group of reporters followed him on a tour of the school Obama once attended．Anas sat in the classroom where the present US president once studied．He spoke a few lines in English．The moment he opened his mouth, however, the differences became clear．“Obama is
