2．Those who are not ________ with the progress they have made will work harder.
A．proud　　　　　　　　 　B．afraid
C．popular D．content
解析：选D。本题考查be content with的用法，be proud of“以……为豪”，be afraid of“怕……”，be popular with“受……欢迎”。句意：那些不满意自己的进步的人，会更努力工作。
3．—You are late again，Tom?
—Sorry，but I got_______a heavy traffic jam.
A．caught in　　B．taken in　　C．put off　　D．held by
解析：选A。be/get caught in是固定搭配，指“突然碰上；突然遭受”，多用于被动结构。
4．As a film star she was a success，but as a wife she was ________failure，so their marriage ended in________failure.
A．不填；不填 B．不填；a C．a；a D．a；不填
解析：选D。failure表示“失败的人或事”时，是可数名词表示“失败”时，是不可数名词。第一空指“失败者”，所以用a；第二空指“以失败告终”，所以不加冠词。
5．Our teacher looked here and there on our playground________looking for something.
A．even though B．even if
C．as if D．only if
解析：选C。根据前面的looked here and there判断，我们的老师“好像”在找东西，所以用as if。

8．Mr.Brown thought it would be a good idea to have________from his workers to improve his plan.
A．summaries B．admissions
C．comments D．connections
解析：选C。考查名词辨析。comment评论，议论，意见。句意：Brown先生认为，为了改善自己的计划，听听工人们的意见会是一个不错的主意。summary“总结，概要”；admission“承认，允许进入”；connection“连接(处)，关系”。
9．Besides television，the Internet is now another major way of communication________us to see as well as to hear the performer.
A．permitted B．having permitted
C．being permitted D．permitting
解析：选D。考查非谓语动词。way与permit之间构成逻辑上的主动关系，故用permitting作定语。
10．You may feel it________that such a little girl can speak three foreign languages fluently in this small town.
A．surprising B．surprised
C．to surprise D．being surprised
解析：选A。考查非谓语动词。此句中it作形式宾语，真正的宾语是that引导的从句，surprising作宾语补足语，表示这件事情“令人惊奇的”。surprised(人)感到惊奇的。

Ⅲ.阅读理解
A
It was Molly’s job to hand her father his brown paper lunch bag each morning before he headed off to work.
One morning, in addition to his usual lunch bag, Molly handed him a second paper bag.This one was worn and held together with staples(书钉)．
“Why two bags？”her father asked.“The other is something else，”Molly answered.“What’s in it？”“Just some stuff (东西)．Take it with you.”
Not wanting to discuss the matter, he put both sacks into his briefcase, kissed Molly and rushed off.At midday he opened Molly’s bag and took out the contents: two hair ribbons (丝带), three small stones, a plastic dinosaur, a tiny sea shell, a small doll, and 13 pennies....The busy father smiled, finished eating, and swept the desk clean into the wastebasket, Molly’s stuff included.
That evening, Molly ran up behind him as he read the paper.“Where’s my bag？”“What bag？”“The one I gave you this morning.”“I left it at the office, my dear.”“I forgot to put this note in it，”she said.“And, besides, Daddy, the things in the sack are the things I really like.I thought you might like to play with them.You didn’t lose the bag, did you, Daddy？”“Oh, no，he said, lying.“I just forgot to bring it home.I’ll bring it tomorrow.”While Molly hugged her father’s neck, he unfolded the note that read.“I love you, Daddy.”Molly had given him her treasures—all that a 7­year­old held dear.
Love was in a paper bag, and he missed it—not only missed it, but had thrown it in the wastebasket.So he went back to the office.Just ahead of the night janitor(看门人)，he picked up the bag from the wastebasket.He put the treasures inside and carried it home carefully.The bag didn’t look so good, but the stuff was all there and that’s what counted.
After dinner, he asked Molly to tell him about the stuff in the sack.It took a long time to tell.
Everything had a story or a memory.
“Sometimes I think of all the great times in this sweet life，”he thought.We should all remember that it’s not the destination that counts in life, but the journey.That journey with the people we love is all that really matters.It is such a simple truth but it is so easily forgotten.

A．She didn’t want to keep the things in the bag.
B．She hoped those things would bring happiness to her father.

2．How did Father deal with the bag after he opened it?
A．He kept it in the drawer.
B．He took it back home.
C．He threw it into the wastebasket.
D．He put it on his table.
解析：选C。根据第四段最后一句可知，父亲将女儿的东西丢进了废纸篓。
3．After Father heard what his daughter said, he felt________.
A．regretful B．surprised
C．sad D．satisfied
解析：选A。由第六段可知，父亲很后悔自己轻率的行为。
4．Which of the following is the most suitable title of the passage?

C．Father and Daughter D．Love in a Paper Bag
解析：选D。小女孩将自己心爱的东西装在纸袋里，希望它能给父亲带来快乐，其实她是将自己对父亲的爱装在纸袋里面了。因此D项正确。
B
(2009年成都外国语学校4月模拟)Stop wasting your time thinking of reasons for your failures and shortcomings.Instead, realize that the seeds of success were planted within you when you were born.Only you have the power to make those seeds grow.
The seeds and the power to grow them are contained in the human mind.Success is a choice but not a chance.You can be a success if only you make the right choice.
You cannot be successful without first developing your self­esteem(自尊)．Your level of self­esteem is always based on the degree of control that you are able to exercise over yourself, and thus over your life.People with low self­esteem do not believe that they have any power, or responsibility for their lives.They are leaves tossed(摇摆) by the winds of chance brought about with any sudden change in the weather.
You can exercise control over your life only to the degree that you believe that you are responsible for whatever happens in your life.Failures think that everything happens by accident while successful people realize that they are responsible.
Everything happens as a result of something.If we can identify the cause, we can control the effect.We are responsible for what we consciously choose to accept and believe.Thoughts and beliefs cause everything.Our attitudes and actions are a result of habits ingrained in us over a period of time.One generally rises to the level that one expects.We are responsible for setting our expectations.Our success depends upon our level of confidence.We are responsible for either reinforcing good habits or kicking bad habits and consciously replacing them with consistently practiced good habits.
If you associate with positive­thinking people, you are definitely going to achieve success.On the contrary, the opposite happens.We are responsible for finding, planting, and nurturing(培育) the seeds that contain future victory, born from setbacks.
In short, in all areas of your life, whether they be financial, physical, emotional, or spiritual, you are responsible.Once you recognize this, accept it, and firmly believe it, you are on the road to success.

D．they don’t make efforts to succeed
解析：选C。推理判断题。根据文章的第四段可知，失败者总是认为事情的发生都是偶然的，因此他们会把自己的失败归因于时运不济。

A．whether we will succeed depends on our attitudes
B．developing confidence is the key to future success
C．thoughts and beliefs are the result of creative mind
D．setting our expectations is essential before taking action
