In April 1998, he learned he would need a heart operation. It was the kind of news that leads to some serious thinking about lifes purpose.Not long after the surgery, Tim saw a brochure(手册) describing Imagination Library, a program started by Dolly Partons foundation (基金会) that mailed a book every month to children from birth to age five in the singers home town of Sevier, Tennessee. “I thought, maybe Linda and I could do something like this when we retire.” Tim recalls. He placed the brochure on his desk, “as a reminder”Five years later, now retired and with that brochure still on the desk, Tim clicked on . The program had been opened up to partners who could take advantage of book and postage discounts.The quality of the books was of great concern to the Richters. Rather than sign up online, they went to Dollywood for a looksee. “We didnt want to give the children rubbish.” says Linda. The booksreviewed each year by teachers, literacy specialists, and Dollywood board membersincluded classics such as Ezra Jack Keatss The Snowy Day and newer books like Anna Dewdneys Llama Llama series.Satisfied, the couple set up the Richter Family Foundation and got to work. Since 2004, they have shipped more than 12,200 books to preschoolers in their area. Megan Williams, a mother of four, is more than appreciative：“This program introduces us to books Ive never heard of.”The Richters spend about $400 a month sending books to 200 children. “Some people sit there and wait to die.” says Tim. “Others get as busy as they can in the time they have left.”21What led Tim to think seriously about the meaning of life?

To meet Dollywood board members.C. To make sure the books were the newest.D. To see if the books were of good quality.23What can we learn from Tims words in the last paragraph?A. He needs more money to help the children.B. He wonders why some people are so busy.C. He tries to save those waiting to die.D. He considers his efforts worthwhile.BParents are not only looking for a unique name for their baby, but they also want a name that has a special meaning. American Indians usually have pretty interesting names. These names are given to them through various methods and usually by an elder. American Indians feel very strongly about naming their child, and it is almost treated like a ritual. In some American Indian cultures, they even hold a ceremony when they are to name a child American Indian children are usually named by an elder who could be their grandmother, grandfather, mother or father. The name given by the elder comes to them in many different forms such as characteristics of the person, dreams that the elder may have. or the name of a family member who has died It is also true that some American Indians arc named after some sort of animal while others are named after nature Some tribes (部落) name their children after events that happen before their birth. Also in different tribes, two of the American Indians in the same tribe cant share the same name Once the person with the name has died. then the name may be used again. It is said that American Indians believe that they shouted not address the baby by the name that they are given because if the name is too well-known. the child or baby may be called back to the spirit world; this is what causes many American Indians to be given nicknames (绰号). Many American Indians arc more commonly known by their nicknames instead of their names given at birth.24. What does the underlined word ritual in Paragraph l probably mean?A. exciting moment B. special eventC. good opportunity D. great time25. Which is not the way Indians name their child?A. The name of a certain animal. B. One of the childs ancestors.C. The dreams of the Indian child. D. An event before the childs birth.26. Why are American Indians given nicknames?A. It is not convenient to use their formal namesB. They dont want to be famous in the tribes.C. Parents are afraid their child would die young.D. Nicknames are shorter and easier to address.27. What does the text mainly talk about?A. Origins of American Indians namesB. History of American Indians namesC. Importance of American Indians names.D. Customs in American Indians names.CChinas growing importance on the world stage means that the West needs to start speaking its language.My son has been learning Mandarin Chinese since he was five; he is now just 14. It has not been easy. Learning Chinese has required a deep pocket and the determination of an Olympic athlete. For nine years, he fed on a number of part-time tutors, each one lasting a year or so if we were lucky. The reason? Until 12 months ago it wasnt possible for him to learn it at school - French, Spanish German, Latin, even Ancient Greek, no problem. But not Chinese. Even now, it is very much a second-class subject. His lessons take place during the school lunch break. Our educational system - public and private -fails to pay enough attention to China, which reflects a much wider problem: our ignorance about China and our failure to appreciate just how much it will change the world and transform our lives. With habitual thinking, our predictions about China have proved mistaken. Take its economy for example. In 1980 it was one-20th of the size of the US, today it is half the size and closing rapidly. Throughout that period, the doubting Thomases were always in a large majority. It would not last, sooner or later it would all end in tears. Why have we managed to get China so wrong? The reason is hardly rocket science. We insist on viewing it through a western angle(角度). For the best part of two centuries, Western societies have seen themselves as the model for all others. But China isnt like us. It never has been and never will be. The great task facing the West over the next century will be to make sense of China - not in our terms but in theirs. We have to understand China as it is and as it has been, not put our own history, culture, institutions and values onto it. It will always fail that test. In fact such a way of thinking tells us more about our own arrogance(傲慢) and lack of curiosity than anything about China.28. According to the writer, learning Chinese is _.A. cheap and useful B. boring and uselessC. hard and expensive D. easy and interesting29. Why do Western societies get China so wrong? A. Because China is changing too quickly. B. Because China isnt open to the outside world. C. Because they know nothing about China. D. Because they view China from their own angles.30. Whats the writers attitude towards China? A. Curious. B. Surprised. C. Respectful. D. Unfriendly.31. The writer believes that the most important thing for the West is _. A. to limit China B. to understand China C. to learn from China D. to catch up with ChinaDAnger is not wrong. I know this statement seems shocking and challenges the wildly popular Positive Thinking movement, which encourages us to be full of positive energy and let go of our anger. However, the truth is that anger is just an emotion, and emotions are neither right nor wrong. We do not consciously choose them. We do, on the other hand, choose how we express our emotions and there are definitely right and wrong means of expression. The reason why were often advised to keep a lid on our anger is that few people ever learn proper and positive ways to express anger. Instead, we are taught that anger is wrong and you should keep your anger inside. But these messages dont change the fact that for most of us, anger exists. Many popular Positive Thinking programmes assume that success comes from controlling our emotions and that this can be done by simply repeating positive statements. Interestingly, these positive slogans (口号) often include a lot of negativity(消极负面性). Only losers complain! I am a winner! is one popular saying. The belief that those who disagree with us are losers is actually quite negative and is often used as an excuse for rude language and personal attacks. When it comes to dealing with negative situations in our daily lives, the ability to reasonably express anger or disagreement is an important skill. But we must use balanced and non-violent methods to express our dissatisfaction. Frustration (挫折) at unfair policies or treatment can certainly cause anger, but our anger can never be an excuse for abusing (虐待) family members, damaging schools, attacking doctors or most seriously, engaging in terrorism (恐怖主义).Instead of pretending that anger doesnt exist, we should start teaching appropriate means of dealing with anger. When we experience angry feelings in ourselves or others, what we should let go of is the silly idea that we can remove anger with just a few sweet words. Instead, we should find reasonable solutions to the causes of those angry feelings. We need to accept anger as a natural emotion but stop using it as an excuse for violent and destructive (破坏性的)behavior. Anger isnt wrong, but failure to deal with it appropriately is.32. What is the writers opinion about the “Positive Thinking ” movement?A. It can help people control their negative feelings.B. It does not offer useful solutions for dealing with anger.C. Simply following its advice can improve peoples chances of success.D. Most of the people who participate in such programmes are dishonest.33. The underlined expression “ keep a lid on” in Paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to “_”.A. freely express B. always forgiveC. hold back and keep inside D. completely forget34. According to the writer, the best way to deal with anger is to _.A. understand the cause of the problem and act appropriatelyB. ignore the cause and hope that the anger will go awayC. respond to the cause with positive energy and wordsD. let the anger out freely until you finally feel relaxed.35. What information is useful to add to the final paragraph?A. The names of some good books that talk about anger issues.B. The viewpoints of people who hold the opposite opinion to the writer.C. Different studies that provide some evidence supporting the writers beliefs.D. Some examples of how to deal with anger in a positive and beneficial way.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。If you think you might have low self-esteem(自尊), try talking to an adult you trust about it. 36 Here are a few things that you can try to increase your self-esteem. 37 It can be anything from drawing or singing to playing a sport or telling a good joke.
