26、2001. I was teaching in a small town in Ohio where my third graders were excitedly waiting for the great day of giving gifts. Each day the children made something new strings of popcorn, hand-made trinkets (小裝飾品) and bells made from wallpaper, which we hung from the ceiling. One girl was just watchi

27、ng. I wondered what would happen to this child, once so happy, now so quiet. I hoped the festivities (慶祝活動) would please her. But nothing did. We made cards for parents, for sisters and brothers, for grandparents, and for each other. At home the students made fried marbles (玻璃球). So I made each of m

28、y students a little bag for carrying their fried marbles home. The day finally came. We were all excited as we exchanged the presents. But the girl just sat watching quietly. I had made a special bag for her. I wanted to see her smile. She opened the bag carefully. I waited, but she turned away. Aft

29、er school the children left. I was sitting down in a chair to catch my breath, when she came to me with a small white box in her hands. "For me?" I asked with a smile. She nodded. I opened the box. There inside, a fried marble hung from a golden chain. In a flash I knew she had made it for

30、 her mother, the mother she would never see again, the mother who had died just three weeks before. I held out the chain. She took it in both her hands and put it on my neck. I whispered, "Oh, Maria, it is so beautiful. She would have loved it." Neither of us could stop the tears. She ran

31、into my arms. And for that moment I became her mother, for she had given me the greatest gift of all: herself.50. The girl student became so quiet when other children were busy exchanging gifts because _.A. she didnt prepare any gift to send to others B. she had no idea what to give her teacherC. sh

32、e disliked exchanging gifts with friends D. she was in deep sorrow for losing her mother51. The underlined phrase “In a flash” can be replaced by “_”.A. QuicklyB. FinallyC. HopefullyD. Happily52. The best title of the passage probably is _.A. Fried Marbles B. Lost Mother C. A Christmas Gift D. A Qui

33、et Girl B Television has opened windows in everybody's life. Young men will never again go to war as they did in 1914. Millions of young people have seen the death and sufferings of a battle on TV. And the result has been a general loathing for war, and perhaps more interest in helping those who

34、 suffer from all the terrible things that have been shown on the screen. Television has also changed politics. The most distant areas can now follow state affairs, see and hear the politicians before an election. Better informed, people are more likely to vote, and so to make their opinion count. Un

35、fortunately, television's influence has been extremely harmful to the young. Children do not have enough experience to realize that TV shows present an unreal world and that TV advertisements lie to sell products that are sometimes bad or useless. They believe that the violence they see is norma

36、l and acceptable. All educators agree that the "television generations" are more violent than their parents and grandparents. Also, the young are less patient. Used to TV shows, where everything is quick and interesting, they do not have the patience to read an article without pictures; to

37、 read a book that requires thinking; to listen to a teacher who doesn't do funny things like the people on children's programs. And they expect all problems to be solved happily in ten, fifteen, or thirty minutes. That's the time it takes on the screen. 53. The underlined word “l(fā)oathing”

38、 in the first paragraph refers to _.A. preference B. faith C. dislike D. belief 54. The writer will probably agree that young people today _.A. are willing to go to war to help those in troubleB. believe the violence they see is unacceptable C. often expect their teachers to do funny things in class

39、D. have realized some advertisements lie to sell products55. The main idea of the passage is that _.A. peoples attitudes towards war have changed B. people all over the world follow state affairsC. the young are becoming less and less patient D. peoples life has changed a lot because of TV56.The wri

40、ters purpose of writing this passage can be _.A. To persuade people to watch TVB. To discourage people from watching TVC. To state the influence of television objectivelyD. To show us that TV programmes are interesting CThe possibility that pleasant smells might reduce pain has recently been suggest

41、ed by new research. In a scientific study, doctors asked 20 men and 20 women to keep their hands in very hot water for as long as possible while breathing in different smells.As people believe that strong smells can affect the senses, volunteers were asked not to eat or drink for eight hours before

42、the experiment began. During the experiment, volunteers were asked to take in pleasant smells such as vanilla(香草), and unpleasant smell such as durians(榴蓮). The volunteers kept their hands in the water until it became too hot for them. When they could not bear the pain any more, they took their hand

43、s out of the water.Scientists are interested in whether the senses or smell is related to pain and whether men and women have the same senses. Now, the study has proved that for women, pleasant smells reduce pain. For men, there is no change.Dr Finkelstein has been studying smells since 1999. He say

44、s that scientists already have data from 40 volunteers. He adds that this year, scientists will test another 60 volunteers and will be in a better position to explain the results.One explanation is that womens sense of smell developed long ago, and is linked to recognizing the smell of babies. Scien

45、tists used to believe that mothers recognized their children by sight only. Now, they have started to believe that the sense of smell also helps, but why pleasant smells do not reduce pain in men is a question still to be answered by scientists.57. If 20 men and 20 women are asked to keep their hand

46、s in hot water while taking in some pleasant smells, _.A. women may stand the pain of the hot water longerB. men may keep their hands in the hot water longerC. they will probably take their hands out at the same timeD. we dont know for sure who will take their hands earlier58. From the passage we le

47、arn that _.A. the reason why women are sensitive to smells is known to allB. the experiment for the sense of smell has come to an endC. unpleasant smells affect mens senses less than womensD. scientists have not totally explained the result of the study59. Now scientists believe that _.A. mothers re

48、cognize their children only by sightB. mens sense of smell developed a long time ago C. strong smells have a great influence on peoples senses D. smells are helpful for mothers to spot their children60. The writer wrote the passage in order to _.A. provide some entertainment to us B. inform the read

49、ers of some knowledge C. show womens sharper senses than mens D. call for volunteers for the experiment DI had a good friend who always began his day with “It is a beautiful day!” No matter what the weather was or how bad the week had been, the greeting never changed. And each day did become a great

50、 day for him. He made me realize that a good start really made a difference. Thursday morning as my machine ate up the last rows of corn, the 2003 harvest came to an end.Before this year, the climate had been terrible for almost everyone working on a farm. Dry weather and high temperatures made them

51、 feel worried since they depend on nature for a good harvest. Year after year of similar condition almost drove them mad. Fortunately for me, my harvest had always been wonderful thanks to a good start and modern technology.The weather in 2003 was even worse than before. It seemed even the advanced

52、technology could not save my crop. I had been worried that it would be my turn to suffer what others had been suffering. However, the market was smiling at me. Every time the market tried to fall, new buyers appeared and prices ended up higher than they began. My late-harvested crop saw very high pr

53、ices within two weeks, so I decided to store the other half of my crop that had not been sold to make more money.This was my last year as a full-time farmer. My landowners had accepted new farmers to rent the land, but I had no hard feelings about handing the work over to someone else. I no longer h

54、ad to worry about transporting grain up hill ten miles or getting caught with crops on the river bottom during a wet fall.As I watch the fires in California on the evening news, I am glad I live where I can cut the bush and mow(修剪) the grass around my home while chatting with my wife. It really is a great day!61. The writer always survived bad climate mainly because _.A. his friend never cha
