It was a story by Chris Van Allsburg, which was later filmed in 1996, starring the famous American actor Robin Williams. The story begins in 1869 in New Hampshire, America. Two young brothers bury a box under some trees. A hundred years later, in 1969, a boy, Alan Panish, finds the box and takes it home. He is unhappy that his father may want to send him to a boarding school. Alans friend, Sarah, arrives, and they open the box. Inside is a board game. At the start of the game, some words appear: “Do you want to leave the world behind and go back to the past? Then this is the game for you.” Suddenly Alan finds that he is disappearing into the game.The story has a deep meaning. Through his adventures Alan learns something importantif you face your fears, your problems will go away. Alan turns to face Van Pelt, the hunter who is trying to kill him. In doing so, he completes the game and returns to reality. Then he finds that his father is not going to send him to a boarding school after all. In Jumanji, time is flexible. The film director Stephen Spielbergs “Back to the Future” films play with time in the same way. Top scientists even tell us now that time travel is theoretically possible!21.

Time is a common topic in film-making.B All around the world, an increasing number of people are spending their time taking part in online volunteering projects. What encourages them to help strangers without expectation of money or even thanks? Radha Taralekar helped teach Imelda how to protect herself from HIV, though the two have never met, and neither knows the others name. Taralekar received no payment for the job. For Taralekar, the project gave her the chance to use her professional experience. “I want to serve people with my medical knowledge,” she said. For some, the inspiration to volunteer online was far more personal. After losing his wife to cancer, Tony Selman spent many hours online helping Cancer Research to collect information on the illness. “Seeing how painful she was when my wife was dying, I decided to help scientists find a way to treat cancer,” he said. Interests and hobbies are also one of the reasons. Sam Luk joined other online volunteers to try to help the police solve murder cases. The police posted them online, calling for volunteers to help them to make sense of the messages. “I am interested in this and I love Sherlock Holmes,” said Luk. For writer Clay Shirky, some large online volunteering projects help millions of people, giving him a sense of achievement. He helps write Wikipedia, the worlds biggest encyclopedia (百科全书), which is written by people willing to use their professional knowledge. 24. We can know that Radha Taralekar may be a _.

CWhen a friend is sad about a tragedy (悲剧), its hard to know how to comfort (安慰) him/ her. But the worst thing you can do is say nothing. It could mean that you dont care. You don have to say much. A single supportive phrase doesnt require absolutely perfect words to break the ice. Here are some conversation starters when difficult situations have your tongue tied. 1.

I cant begin to imagine what you are going through, but if you want to talk about it, call me anytime.” 2. A guy deserts(遗弃) your friend. Dont say: “I never liked that rat bastard (坏蛋) anyway!” ( If the couple winds up reconciling (和解), you could end up losing your friend.) Do say: “Breaking up is always hard to deal with, but Im here for you, whatever you need.”3. A friend has a death in the family. Dont say: “Its Gods will.” or “I know exactly how you feel.” Do say: “Im sorry about your loss. What can I do to help?”4. A friend loses a job suddenly. Dont say: “ Work is always boring. Those employers didnt suit you!” Do say:” Im sorry for that, but I know theres an even better job waiting for you there. Lets think about possibilities.”5. Someones pet dies.Dont say: “Gee! It was only a cat!” or “My roommate doesnt like her dog and she is getting rid of her dog. Do you want it?” Do say: “Im sorry, she was such a great cat. How long did you have it?”28.

Thats enough.DAfter I made it to the city center, I started to feel it might be easy for a foreigner to deal with the great size of Beijing. With growing confidence, I decided to take the subway to the hotel, not realizing that the network didnt go that far. Impressed with the cleanliness of the station, I bought a ticket and boarded the first train that came along.After a few minutes I asked in English of course a young man seated next to me where I should get off closest to the Friendship Hotel. Wearing a smart business suit and tie, he would surely speak English, wouldnt he? Unfortunately, he couldnt understand me but seemed very friendly. I showed him the room card with all the information of the Friendship Hotel in Chinese characters(汉字). He looked at it, and then his eyes moved quickly to the carriage （车厢） subway map. Next, he raised three fingers of his right hand.In Australia, raising fingers at someone is not usually nice, but this man wasnt smiling. At the next station he showed me two fingers. Now in Australia, thats really rude, but I got the message. When we stopped at the third station, he didnt just point to the door, but got up, took me out of the train, and led me to the top of the stairs, and out onto the street. Then he stopped a taxi and told the driver where to take me.All this came from a man who couldnt speak my language, and I couldnt speak his. I was now speechless, especially when he refused my offer of money. I felt a little embarrassed having even thought he would accept a tip.This experience made it clear I had to learn some Chinese quickly or my adventures might start turning into bad luck.32The author decided to take the subway because _.Ahe lived near the city center Bthe network covered most of the stopsChe believed in his ability to deal with the tripDhe had a good impression of its cleanliness33Having been shown the room card, the young man_.Aunderstood the author well Bstill remained puzzledCanswered the author directly Dpointed at the subway map34Which of the following cant be used to describe the young man?Ahelpful Brude Cwarmhearted Dcaring35The authors purpose of writing this passage is mainly to _.Aprove the importance of being carefulBappreciate the kindness of the young manCcomplain some cultural misunderstandingDdescribe one of his adventurous experiences第二节（ 共 5 小题，每小题 2 分，满分 10 分 ）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。English can be a difficult language to learn, but there are certain things you can do to learn the language a lot faster.
