Ⅳ.阅读理解
My dad loved pennies，especially those with the elegant stalk(茎) of wheat curving around each side of the ONE CENT on the back. Those were the pennies he grew up with during the Depression(大萧条)．
As a kid，I would go for walks with Dad，spying coins along the way—a penny here，a dime(一角硬币) there. Whenever I picked up a penny，he’d ask，“Is it a wheat？” It always thrilled him when we found one of those special coins produced between 1909 and 1958，the year of my birth.
One gray Sunday morning in winter，not long after my father’s death in 2002，I was walking down Fifth Avenue，feeling bereft. I found myself in front of the church where Dad once worked. I was warmly shown in and led to a seat. Hearing Dad’s favorite “A Mighty Fortress Is Our God”，I burst into tears. We’d sung that at his funeral.
After the service，I shook the pastor’s(牧师) hand and stepped onto the sidewalk—and there was a penny. I bent to pick it up，turned it over，and sure enough，it was a wheat. A 1944，a year my father was serving on a ship in the South Pacific.
That_started_it. Suddenly wheat pennies began turning up on the sidewalks of New York everywhere. I got most of the important years: his birth year，my mom’s birth year，the year he graduated from college，the year he met my mom，the year they got married，the year my sister was born. But alas，no 1958 wheat penny—my year，the last year they were made.
The next Sunday，after the service，I was walking up Fifth Avenue and spotted a penny in the middle of a crossing. Oh，no，it was a busy street；cabs were speeding by—should I risk it? I just had to get it.
A wheat! But the penny was worn，and I couldn’t read the date. On arriving home，I took out my glasses and took it to the light. There was my birthday!
I found 21 wheat pennies on the streets of Manhattan in the year after my father died，and I don’t think that’s a coincidence.
【文章大意】 父亲非常热爱硬币，特别是对那些带有麦穗图案的一分钱硬币更是情有独钟，这究竟是为什么呢？
1．The writer’s father loved pennies with wheat because ________.
A．when he first saw it，he began to love it
B．when he saw the wheat，he thought of his time during the Depression
C．when he was young，he had a lot of pennies with wheat
D．when he was a child，he never got a coin with wheat
解析：考查细节理解。根据第一段第二句话可知B项正确。A项并没有说明原因；C项明显不正确；D项太绝对。
答案：B
2．The underlined word “bereft”(in Para.3) means ________.
A．alone B．disappointed
C．upset D．discouraged
解析：考查猜测词义。因为父亲刚刚去世，所以很难过。
答案：C
3．Which of the following statements about the author is NOT true?
A．He was born in 1958.
B．He went to church because of his father.
C．He once worked in a church.
D．He knew the church well.
解析：考查细节理解。根据第二段最后半句话，可排除A项；根据第三段前两句话，可排除B项；文中多次提到去教堂祈祷，自然作者对教堂很熟悉，排除D项。作者并非在教堂工作，所以C项为最佳答案。
答案：C
4．The underlined sentence (in Para.5) suggests ________.
A．the author’s father began to serve on a ship
B．the author picked up many wheat pennies since then
C．the author began to love wheat pennies since then
D．the author started to look for wheat pennies with 1958
解析：考查句意猜测。根据后文可知，就在父亲去世的这一年，作者经常在路边拾到带有麦穗的硬币，而且集全了所有重要纪念日的硬币，因此B项正确。
答案：B
5．The best title for the passage would probably be ________.
A．Pennies from Heaven B．My father’s life story
C．My father’s hobby D．Living in New York
解析：考查文章标题。文章最后一段讲，在父亲去世的这一年，作者集全了所有的硬币，他认为这不是巧合，而是父亲在冥冥之中指引着他，因此A项正确。
答案：A

Ⅵ.读写任务
阅读下面的短文，然后按照要求写一篇150词左右的英语短文。
Five years ago，David Smith wore an expensive suit to work every day. “I was a clothes addict，” he jokes. “I used to carry a fresh suit to work with me so I could change if my clothes got wrinkled.” Today David wears casual clothes—khaki pants and sports shirt—to the office. He hardly ever wears a necktie. “I’m working harder than ever，” David says，“and I need to feel comfortable.”
More and more companies are allowing their office workers to wear casual clothes to work. In the United States，the change from formal to casual office wear has been gradual. In the early 1990s，many companies allowed their employees to wear casual clothes on Friday (but only on Friday). This became known as “dressdown Friday” or “casual Friday.” “What started out as an extra onedayaweek benefit for employees has really become an everyday thing.” said business consultant Maisly Jones.

Should Students Be Required to Wear School Uniform on the Campus?
David Smith，who used to wear an expensive suit to work every day，now wears casual clothes，which is allowed by more and more companies in the United States.
Just like most schools，my school also requires that the students should wear school uniform on the campus.
I firmly support it. For one thing，wearing school uniform，we will always remember that we are students and should behave as a student is required to. For another，with the fast development of economy of our country，more and more families are becoming better off and as a result parents are willing to spend more on their children’s clothes，which puts pressure on those whose families are not so well off. Now as we are required to wear school uniform，we don’t have to compete with each other to see who wears the clothes of a better brand，which saves us a lot of money，especially for those students the economic state of whose family is not well off.
In a word，I support that students should be required to wear school uniform on the campus.
