阅读下面短文,掌握其大意。然后从短文后各题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中,选择最佳选项。
Tess was a nice eight-year-old girl. When she heard her Mom and Dad talking about her little brother, Andrew, all she knew was that he was very sick and they were   36  out of money. They were moving to an apartment complex next month because Daddy didn’t have the money for the doctor’s bills and their house.
Only a very expensive surgery(手术) could save him now and it was looking like there was no one to loan them the money. She heard Daddy say to her tearful Mother with whispered desperation, “Only a miracle(奇迹) can save him now.”
Tess went to her bedroom and pulled a glass jelly jar from its hiding place in the closet. She  37  all the change out on the floor and counted it carefully. Three times, even. The total had to be exactly perfect. No chance here for  38  .
Carefully placing the coins back in the jar and twisting on the cap, she slipped out the back door and  39  her way 6 blocks to Rexall’s Drug Store with the big red Indian Chief sign above the door.
She waited  40  for the pharmacist(药剂师)to give her some attention but he was too busy at this moment. Tess twisted her feet to make a noise. Nothing. She cleared her throat with the most disgusting sound she could muster(激起).
No good. Finally she took a quarter from her jar and banged it on the glass counter. That did it! “And what do you want?” the pharmacist asked in a(an)  41  tone of voice. “I’m talking to my brother from Chicago whom I haven’t seen in ages.” he said without waiting for a reply to his question.
“Well, I want to talk to you about  42  brother,” Tess answered back in the same tone. “He’s really, really sick... and I want to buy a miracle.”
“I beg your pardon?” said the pharmacist. “His name is Andrew and he has something bad growing inside his head and my Daddy says only a miracle can save him now. So how much does a miracle cost?”
“We don’t sell miracles here, little girl. I’m sorry but I can’t help you,” the pharmacist said,  43 a little.
“Listen, I have the money to pay for it. If it isn’t enough, I will get the rest. Just tell me how much it costs.”
The pharmacist’s brother was a well-dressed man. He stooped down and asked the little girl, “What kind of a miracle does your brother need?” “I don’t know,” Tess replied with her eyes welling  44  .
“I just know he’s really sick and Mommy says he needs an operation. But my Daddy can’t pay for it, so I want to use my money.”
“How much do you have?” asked the man from Chicago.
“One dollar and eleven cents,” Tess answered in a low voice. “And it’s all the money I have, but I can get some more if I need to.”
“Well, what a coincidence,” smiled the man. “A dollar and eleven cents — the  45  price of a miracle for little brothers.” He took her money in one hand and with the other hand he grasped her mitten(手套) and said, “Take me to where you live. I want to see your brother and meet your parents. Let’s see if I have the kind of miracle you need.”
That well-dressed man was Dr. Carlton Armstrong, a surgeon,  46 in neurosurgery. The operation was completed without charge and it wasn’t long until Andrew was home again and doing well. Mom and Dad were happily talking about the chain of events that had led them to this place.
“That surgery,” her Mom whispered, “was a real miracle. I wonder how much it would have cost?” Tess smiled. She knew exactly how much a miracle cost: one dollar and eleven cents plus the   47  of a little child.
36. A. mostly       B. completely        C. really       D. finally
37. A. pulled       B. took          C. put         D. poured

43. A. strengthening    B. worsening        C. softening      D. weakening
44. A. down         B. up            C. in         D. on
45. A. enough        B. proper           C. only         D. exact
46. A. specializing     B. working         C. studying       D. teaching

Dwight W. Morrow was an American ambassador (大使) to Mexico during the 1920s. He is remembered as a smart diplomat (外交家). He is also remembered by his family and friends for his absent-mindedness (心不在焉).
Once while on a train, a conductor came to Morrow, asking for his ticket. He began to search his pockets. No ticket appeared. Morrow began searching his suitcase. “Never mind, sir.” said the conductor, seeing how anxious Morrow was becoming and trying to comfort him. “When you find your ticket, just post it to the station. I’m sure you have it somewhere.”
“I’m sure, too.” said the diplomat as he went on with his search. “But I must find it. I need to know where I'm going!”
Another time Morrow got off a train in New York and hurried to a telegraph office where he felt like a small boy who had got lost, he sent the following to his secretary: “I am in New York but don’t know why.” Within minutes came the short reply: “You are not supposed to be in New York. You should be in Princeton giving a lecture.”

A. cleverness as a diplomat          B. foolishness

In most towns today, you can see teenagers standing over electronic machines with flashing lights, shooting at spaceships from other planets and dropping bombs on strange monsters(恶魔).The machines have names like Space Warrior, Dark Invader and so on. It used to be believed that damage was done only to those strange visitors from outer space, but now it seems that they are striking back.
Many teenagers like electronic games so much that they can’t stop playing. They spend hours tightly holding the joystick controls and constantly pressing buttons marked “fire”. They develop pains on their fingers because of the constant pressure. They play and play that the pains have no chance to cure properly. The rapid wrist movement required to guide the spaceship across the screen causes another problem: The muscles of the wrist and arm become so inflamed and swollen(充血红肿) that they press against the bones. This condition is what doctors now call “Space Warrior’s Wrist”.
Other strange aches and pains also are likely to affect the elbows and shoulders.
Another even more alarming problem is shown by the case of a 17-year-old girl which was recently reported in the British Medical Journal. She had been playing various kinds of electronic games for more than two hours a day. Her father repaired games and machines and she could use the cassettes and systems in his workshop as often as she liked. One day, after playing a game called Dark Invader, she lost consciousness(晕倒) and fell to the floor.
Doctors who examined her found she was suffering from an unusual illness caused by lights flashing at a particular frequency.
54. Electronic games are found very popular with _______.
A. people living in towns
B. young people
C. girls working in their father’s workshops
D. students studying in high schools
55. “Space Warrior’s Wrist” is mainly caused by _______.
① constantly pressing the buttons
② rapidly moving across the screen
③ tightly holding the joystick controls
④ inflamed and swollen muscles of the wrist
⑤ lights flashing at a particular frequency
A. ①; ③      B. ②; ④       C. ①; ②      D. ③; ⑤
56. The case of a 17-year-old girl given by the writer shows that the writer _______.
A. supports playing electronic games
B. feels very sorry for the girl
C. disagreed with young people’s playing electronic games
D. feels worried about young people’s poor health

It may seem easy to say that plants and animals are different. Any child can tell the difference between a tree and a dog. But those differences are far deeper than just what they look like. The cells(细胞) that plants are made up of are different. In other words, the cell wall of plants has something special.
First of all, it’s important to find that not all plant cells have a cell wall. Besides, there are many differences of a cell wall based on the kinds of plant. The following is meant to be what a plant cell wall is like.
The cell wall of a plant is on the outside of the cell membrane(膜). It is usually hard and cannot be bent easily, but the degree of flexibility(韧性) of the cell wall is different. It is based on the special use that the cell has in keeping the plant alive. Cells that make up the trunk of a tree are clearly less flexible than cells on a leaf.
Cell walls act in many ways. They serve to protect the plant. They provide support, as well as help in the movement of chemicals and wastes into and out of the cell. More importantly, they control the water that goes in and out. Plants must have good water controlling systems(系统), allowing them to keep water during dry seasons, and get rid of unnecessary water. Plants can’t walk around to find water, so being able to control water is very important.
So there you have it —what a plant cell wall is. Of course, there are many other things that are not talked about here. Knowing more about plant cell walls requires further study and research.
57. The best title of the passage can be _______.
A. Different Plants          B. Different Animals
C. The Plant Cell Wall        D. The Uses of Cells
58. From the first two paragraphs we can find that_______ .
A. all plants have a cell wall
B. plant cells and animal cells are the same
C. different kinds of plant have different cell walls
D. there are no differences between the cells of a tree and a dog
59. The underlined word “bent” in the passage is the closest in meaning to_______.
A. shape-changed    B. water-kept    C. sun-burnt    D. skin-broken
E
Doreen Sykora is now a junior at McGill University. She had a difficult time when she first began college. She said, “I was always well prepared for my examinations. But when I go into class to take the exam, I would fall apart. I could just blank out because of nervousness and fear.” Hitoshi Sakamoto, an anthropology(人类学) student at Temple University in Tokyo reports similar experiences.
These two young students were experiencing something called test anxiety. Because a student worries and is stressed(加压力于) about a test, his or her mind does not work as well as it usually does. The student cannot write or think clearly because of the severe tension and nervousness.
Now there are special university courses to help students. In these courses, advisors and psychologists try to help students by teaching them to manage test anxiety. Such a course helps students learn to live with stress and not fail because of it. First students take a practice test to measure their worry level. If the tests show that their stress level is high, the students can take a short course to manage the fear. These courses teach students how to relax their bodies. They get training to become calm in very tense situations. By controlling their nervousness, they can let their minds work more easily. Learned information then comes out without difficulty on a test.
Doreen Sykora saw immediate results after taking such a course. She now has enthusiasm about the relaxation methods. “Mostly, what I do is imagine myself in a very calm place. Then I imagine myself picking up a pencil. I move slowly and carefully. I breathe easily and let all the tension out. With each breath, more worry leaves me. It really works too. My grades have improved greatly! I’m really doing well at McGill now. This relaxation method works not only on examinations, but it has improved the rest of my life as well.”
For Hitoshi in Tokyo, the results were much the same. He is enjoying school a lot more and learning more.
60. What is the similarity between Doreen Sykora and Hitoshi Sakamoto?
A. They are students from the same university.
B. They failed in all the examinations.
C. They both had experiences of test anxiety.
D. They both had the same poor studying habits.
61. The phrase “blank out” in Paragraph 1 refers to “_______.”
A. lose interest in the exam     B. refuse to take the exam
C. get an extra paper        D. be unable to think clearly
62. What’s the purpose of some special university student-help courses?
A. To help students to reduce test anxiety.
B. To show a stress level experienced by students.
C. To learn more knowledge about test anxiety.
D. To have a better understanding of test anxiety.

八、阅读与表达(共10分,每小题2分)
阅读短文,根据短文内容回答问题。
“Life’s a long, long journey(旅程)” so we are told, and most of us would not set off on a journey, even a short one, without some idea of where we wanted to go. Yet many people travel on life’s journey with no sense of direction at all.
Setting personal goals can give your life a sense of direction. Goal setting is used by top sports players, successful business people and achievers in all fields. Before you set personal goals, think about what you want to achieve with your life.
Try to set goals in some of the following categories.
· Education—Will you achieve the educational goals after finishing high-school? Are you still growing and learning?
· Family—What kind of relationship(关系)do you want with your parents and other family members?
· Creative—Do you want to achieve any artistic goals?
· Career—What job do you want to take when you grow up? What do you need to make your dream come true?
· Public Service—Do you want to make the world a better place?
· Physical—Are you fit enough to do the things you want to do?
· Pleasure—How do you want to enjoy yourself?
Write down the goals and think about them carefully. Are they realistic? When will you be able to achieve them?
To help make the process (过程) more manageable, divide your goals into smaller tasks. For example, if you want to reach a main goal in five years, set a three-year goal, a one-year goal, a three-month goal and a one-month goal. Then create a daily To-Do List of things that you should do today. When a goal is achieved, take the time to enjoy your success. This helps you build the self-confidence.
Remember: your goals can change as time goes on. But be sure your goals are things you hope to achieve, not what your parents, family or teachers want.
67. Is life a long journey according to the passage?
68. Why do you need to set your life goal?
69. What should you consider when you set a family goal?
70. How can we achieve the main goal easily?
71. What does the writer want to tell us?
