Her book and the movie based on it, tell a story of love and survival during the American Civil War. Visitors to the Margaret Mitchell House in Atlanta, Georgia, can go where she lived when she started composing the story and learn more about her life.Our first stop at the Margaret Mitchell House is an exhibit area telling about the writers life. She was born in Atlanta in 1900. She started writing stories when she was a child. She started working as a reporter for the Atlanta Journal newspaper in 1922. One photograph of Ms. Mitchell, called Peggy, shows her talking to a group of young college boys. She was only about one and a half meters tall. The young men tower over her, but she seems very happy and sure of herself. The tour guide explains: “Now in this picture Peggy is interviewing some boys from Georgia Tech, asking them such questions as Would you really marry a woman who works? And today itd be Would you marry one who doesnt? ”The Margaret Mitchell House is a building that once contained several apartments. Now we enter the first floor apartment where Ms. Mitchell lived with her husband, John Marsh. They made fun of the small apartment by calling it “The Dump ” .Around 1926, Margaret Mitchell had stopped working as a reporter and was at home healing after an injury. Her husband brought her books to read from the library. She read so many books that he bought her a typewriter and said it was time for her to write her own book. Our guide says Gone with the Wind became a huge success. Margaret Mitchell received the Pulitzer Prize for the book. In 1939 the film version was released. It won ten Academy Awards, including Best Picture.21. The book Gone with the Wind was _.A. first published on a newspaper B. awarded ten Academy Awards C. written in “The Dump” D. adapted from a movie22. The underlined phrase “tower over” in Paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to_.A. be very pleased with B. show great respect forC. be much taller than D. show little interest in23. Why did Ms. Mitchell stop working as a reporter according to the passage?A. Because she was rich enough. B. Because she was injured then.C. Because her husband didnt like it. D. Because she wanted to write books.24. We can know about Margaret Mitchell from the passage that _.A. her height made her marriage unhappy B. her interest in writing continued as an adultC. writing stopped her working as a reporter D. her life was full of hardship and sadness BWhy do Americans struggle with watching their weight, while the French, who consume rich food, continue to stay thin? Now a research by Cornell University suggests how life style and decisions about eating may affect weight. Researchers concluded that the French tend to stop eating when they feel full. However, Americans tend to stop when their plate is empty or their favorite TV show is over. According to Dr. Joseph Mercola, a health expert, the French see eating as an important part of their life style. They enjoy food and therefore spend a fairly long time at the table, while Americans see eating as something to be squeezed between the other daily activities. Mercola believes Americans lose the ability to sense when they are actually full. So they keep eating long after the French would have stopped. In addition, he points out that Americans drive to huge supermarkets to buy canned and frozen foods for the week. The French, instead, tend to shop daily, walking to small shops and farmers markets where they have a choice of fresh fruits, vegetables, and eggs as well as high-quality meats for each meal. After a visit to the United States, Mireille Guiliano, author of French Women Dont Get Fat, decided to write about the importance of knowing when to stop rather than suggesting how to avoid food. Today she continues to stay slim and rarely goes to the gym. In spite of all these differences, evidence shows that recent life style changes may be affecting French eating habits. Today the rate of obesity or extreme overweight among adults is only 6%. However, as American fast food gains acceptance and the young reject older traditions, the obesity rate among French children has reached 17% and is growing.25. In what way are the French different from Americans according to Dr. Joseph Mercola?A. They go shopping at supermarkets more frequently. B. They squeeze eating between the other daily activities.C. They regard eating as a key part of their lifestyles.D. They usually eat too much canned and frozen food.26. This text is mainly the relationship between _.A. Americans and the French B. life style and obesityC. children and adults D. fast food and overweight27. The text is mainly developed _.A. by comparison B. by space C. by process D. by classification(分类)28. Where does this text probably come from?A. A TV interview B. A food advertisement C. A health report D. A book reviewCHow to improve our life? Many people think that they have to accept whatever life throws at them. Theyll say, “This is my destiny (命运). I cannot change it.”Of course not! You dont have to suffer needlessly. Your life depends on you, not on any other external (外部的) factor.I know a woman who says she just accepts what life gives her because she has done everything she can to improve it. Guess what her lifestyle is? She wakes up in the morning, goes to work, comes back home, relaxes, chats with people, watches TV, and then goes to sleep. Next day, the same routine cycle follows.Huh! Is this what she calls “doing her best”? She believes she has tried her best and just accepts it in her heart that this is the life that has been intended for her, and that her luck can only change if God wills it. She hasnt realized that we have to do our share of making the effort to live the life of our dreams.Remember that you harvest what you sow. You have to get off the sofa, get your eyes off the TV screen, get our hands off the phone (unless it contributes to your success), and get your mind and body to work! Dont expect your luck to change, unless you do something about it. If something goes wrong, dont just regard it as a temporary setback; instead, learn your lesson, make the most of the situation, and do something to solve the problem. Its not enough to think positively; you also have to act positively.If someones life is in trouble, do you just hope and pray that things will turn out fine? Of course not! You get to do anything you can to save the person. So it is with your own life. It is not enough to hope for the best, but you have to do your best. In other words, dont just stand (or sit) there, do something to improve your life.29. According to the woman mentioned in Para. 3, her life _.A. doesnt need improving B. will be better someday C. couldnt be improved D. will be worse in the future30. Which of the following statements is the authors opinion?A. Your temporary problem is not discouraging.B. Your luck can be changed by your efforts.C. You can only achieve success when God wills it.D. You should treat yourself in the way you treat your friends.31. In Para. 5, the author emphasized the importance of _.A. positive thinking B. positive actionC. hope for the best D. intention to succeed32. The text is mainly written to advise you to _.A. understand yourself B. change your normal wayC. believe in yourself D. improve your life DWhat to do if a fire starts?Imagine its late at night. You hear the smoke detectors go off. You smell smoke when you wake up. Do you know what to do?If a fire starts in your home, remember your escape plan and leave as quickly as possible. Keep the following things in mind to make a safe escape.Call“Fire!”to warn everyone in your family.If you know where the fire is, close as many doors as possible between you and the fire. If youre in bed, roll out of bed and onto the floor. Crawl on the floor next to a wall. Being near the ground makes it easier to breathe. If possible, cover your mouth and nose with a wet cloth.Feel the entire surface of a door before you open it. If the door is warm or hot, do not open it. The fire is probably right outside your room. Find another way to leave the room. If the door is cool, open it a little.Look out and try to see the fire. If it is safe, leave the room. Remember to stay on the floor.If your clothes catch fire, stop immediately. Drop to the ground and roll. Remember：Stop, drop and roll.Call the fire department from outside and wait for help to arrive.33What is the first thing you should do if a fire starts in your home?ACall the fire departmentBCall“Fire”to warn your family members.CCollect your favorite belongings to save from the burning house.DHave a white sheet from a window to let the fire department know where to go.34What should you do if a fire starts and you are in bed?AJump out of bed and run away.BRoll out of bed and stand on the floor.CStay in bed and then jump out of the window.DRoll out of bed and onto the floor.35What is not true according to the passage?ANever go back into a burning building.BIf your clothes catch fire, stop immediately.CYou should call the fire department before you leave the burning building. DCover your mouth and nose with a wet cloth if possible.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。Tips for cooking on a Tight ScheduleFrom my experience, there are three main reasons why people dont cook more often: ability, money and time, _36_Money is a topic Ill save for another day. So today I want to give you some wisdom about how to make the most of the time you spend in the kitchen. Here are three tips for great cooking on a tight schedule:Think ahead. The moments when I think cooking is a pain are when Im already hungry and there is nothing ready to eat. So think about of the coming week. When will you have time to cook?

It gives you the chance to hit upon new ideas and recipes that can work well with your appetite and schedule. The more you learn and the more you try, the more ability you have to take control of your food and your schedule.
