    I’m a real book lover. Every time my friends visit me, my nose is buried in a book. Wherever I go, I always have a book with me. Novels, history books, stories about people, journals and news—I read them all and I’ve learnt a lot, too. For example, many things in life happen for the best even if we don’t like or understand them.
    Why is reading such an enjoyable pastime for me? I probably first learned about it from my parents. My mother read to me at night in my childhood and bought me picture books. The greatest gift she has given me is a love for reading. And it will be a life-long habit.
    No one ever asked me why I liked to read. They just saw me and asked, “Oh? Is that for school work?” And I just shook my head, “No. It’s just for fun.” While reading a good book, I can totally forget myself and fly to another world. It’s like exploring through someone’s eyes, which is just as exciting as watching a movie.
    Reading is also necessary in order to learn about writing, to improve my use of words and phrases and broaden my knowledge. What a pity to see our imagination disappear, for we don’t exercise it often. Reading can even be good for one’s health, I think. Everyone should read sad stories that make us cry and also books with humor that make us laugh out loud!
    小题1:. Among the gifts my parents have given me, which is the most valuable one?
    A．A love for reading.B．Picture books.
    C．Good health.D．A lovable pastime.
    小题2:. In the fourth paragraph, the author thinks reading can ____.
    A．make his parents happy
    B．finish his school work
    C．improve writing and broaden knowledge
    D．help him understand some movies
    小题3:. If we don’t use our imagination often, ____.
    A．it is bad for our healthB．we will soon learn how to write
    C．it will help us to have a good restD．it will soon disappear
    小题4:. What does the passage mainly talk about?
    A．Why do I have few friends?B．What are my life habits?
    C．Why do I love reading?D．Why do things happen for the best?

    小题1:A
    小题2:C
    小题3:D
    小题4:C

         One of the most famous basketball players in the New Castle ' s history was paralyzed(瘫痪的) in a wheelchair one day and was walking the next. Citizens of New Castle simply refer   to it as  " The Miracle" .
    Joel Haler woke up in his dorm room at Hope College last October totally paralyzed from  the waist down. Four hospitals later, the only way he could walk was through Robotic Walking  Treatment.
    "This past Tuesday ,I was doing the Robotic walk and lasted ten minutes, " Joel said. After that, he gave up. Joel w-anted to accept the  inevitable (不可避免的事)  and  cancelled his next Robotic Walking Treatment appointment.
    Then , the night before his cancelled appointment, he woke up to a terrible pain. An hour  and a half later ,the serious pain left him with an unusual feeling in his legs.
    " As it continued to move up my legs ,it became more and more painful and it took an hour  and a half to reach my hips(臀部) , " Joel recalled.
    "I stood up and walked into my parents'  room. ' Mom and dad, look! ' ," he said proudly.

    Read the passage carefully. Then answer the questions or complete the statements in no more than ten words:
    Just Ask Grandma
    We read and hear a lot about healthy eating in newspapers and on TV nowadays. Experts and nutritionists tell us what to eat, when to eat and how to eat to stay healthy, Some of the their advice seems reasonable. Some just sounds strange. Who can we rely on?
    Well, ask yourself another question: How did people choose foods and stay healthy before there were nutrition experts? We relied on culture, which is another way of saying: on tradition and common sense.
    All of us carry around rules of thumb about eating that have been passed down in our families or plucked（采集） from culture. Earlier this year, US writer Michael Pollen posted a request about these rules on The New York Times website. Within days, he received more than 2,500 responses. Not all of them have stood the test of time or been confirmed by science, but all of them have something to teach us, Pollen said.
    Here are some of Pollen’s favorites:
    My parents are both from Italy, and one of our family rules was that you could not leave the table until you had finished your fruit. It was a great way to put fruit into our diets and also helped satiate（满足）our sweet tooth, keeping us away from less healthful sweets. – Marta C. Larusso
    From my Romanian grandmother: “Breakfast, you should eat alone. Lunch, you should share with a friend. Dinner, give to your enemy.” – Irina A. Dumitrescu
    Don’t eat anything that took more energy to ship than to grow. – Carrie Cizauskas
    “It’s better to pay the grocer（食品商） than the doctor” was the saying that my Italian grandmother would frequently use to remind us of the love and attention to detail that went in to her cooking – John Forti
    If you are not hungry enough to eat an apple, then you are not hungry. – Emma Fogt
    “Make and take your own lunch to work.” My father has always done this, and so have I. It saves money and you know what you are eating. – Hope Donovan Rider
    Never eat something that is pretending to be something else, e.g.: chocolate-flavor sauce that doesn’t contain chocolate. – Sonya Legg
    小题1:Other than health experts, which other sources are there for us to turn to for advice on diet?
    小题2:What does the underlined sentence imply?
    小题3:According to Marta C. Larusso, we can both satiate our sweet tooth and keep away from less healthful sweets by_________________________________
    小题4:What did John Forti’s grandmother mean when she said, “It’s better to pay the grocer than the doctor.”?

    第二节简答题（共4小题; 10分）
    阅读短文，根据所要求的字数回答问题。
    Almost everybody in America will spend a part of his or her life behind a shopping cart (购物手推车). They will, in a lifetime, push the chrome-plated contraptions many miles. But few will know—or even think to ask—who it was that invented them.
    Sylvan N. Goldman invented the shopping cart in 1937. At that time he was in the supermarket business. Every day he would see shoppers lugging (吃力地携带) groceries around in baskets they had to carry.
    One day Goldman suddenly had the idea of putting baskets on wheels. The wheeled baskets would make shopping much easier for his customers, and would help to attract more business.
    On June 4, 1937, Goldman’s first carts were ready for use in his market. He was terribly excited on the morning of that day as customers began arriving. He couldn’t wait to see them using his invention.
    But Goldman was disappointed. Most shoppers gave the carts a long look, but hardly anybody would give them a try.
    After a while, Goldman decided to ask customers why they weren’t using his carts. “Don’t you think this arm is strong enough to carry a shopping basket?” one shopper replied.
    But Goldman wasn’t beaten yet. He knew his carts would be a great success if only he could persuade people to give them a try. To this end, Goldman hired a group of people to push carts around his market and pretend they were shopping! Seeing this, the real customers gradually began copying the phony (假冒的) customers.{007}
    As Goldman had hoped, the carts were soon attracting larger and larger numbers of customers to his market. But not only did more people come—those who came bought more. With larger, easier-to-handle baskets, customers unconsciously bought a greater number of items than before.
    Today’s shopping carts are five times larger than Goldman’s original model. Perhaps that’s one reason Americans today spend more than five times as much money on food each year as they did before 1937—before the coming of the shopping cart.
    86. What was the purpose of Goldman’s invention? (No more than 13 words)
    __________________________________________________________.
    87. Why was Goldman disappointed at first? (No more than 10 words)
    __________________________________________________________.
    88. Why did Goldman hire people to push carts around his market? (No more than 10 words)
    __________________________________________________________.
    89. What do you think of Goldman? (No more than 20 words)   _______________________________________________________________________.

    Luo Jingyu, 19, has four years of experience of running business. He is also a freshman in the arts department of Hubei University.
    Luo Jingyu is from an ordinary family. He said, “My parents told me if I wanted something I should make an effort to get it, so I earned pocket money by doing housework when I was little.” The dream of running his own business grew in his heart. He said, “I want to be a successful person, like Alibaba’s Ma Yun.”
    When Luo was a junior student, he had the idea of selling lanterns(灯笼)when he saw many people flying Chinese lanterns in a square. Luo bought some lanterns from a store, but the sales were not as good as he had expected. Then he found another way to do business. He bought lanterns on the Internet at a very low price. Finally he easily made 5,000 yuan in two days.
    With a happy beginning, Luo planned to open a dress shop. “My parents didn’t support me opening a dress shop, so I had to borrow 120,000 yuan for it.” Although he did market research before starting, the business wasn’t very good because his taste in fashion wasn’t accepted by customers. The shop eventually closed down after half a year.
    After experiencing a big loss, he decided to do something he was familiar with --- selling painting tools. As a fine arts student, he knew the market. He convinced his friends to invest one million yuan in his shop. With a good business mind and a lot of effort, the sales of the shop reached six million yuan in a year.
    Even though Luo is rich, he uses a cheap cell phone and does not wear luxury(奢华的) clothes. He has a simple lifestyle. “It isn’t easy to make money, so money should be used on something worthwhile,” he said.

    Growing up the daughter of an outstanding educator，Andrea Peterson knew at a young age that she wanted to serve others.It was with this mindset that she started to pursue a degree in medicine.However，while visiting her brothers who were away at college studying music education，she realized that she was drawn to teach music，too.
    In her ten years at Granite Falls，she has revitalized the music programs at both the elementary and high school levels，to the extent that an additional music faculty member was hired by the district to assist with the workload.The growth of the music program in Granite Falls School District has encouraged students to participate in country，state and national music competitions，and won numerous prizes for the district.
    Teaching music is only a part of Peterson's instruction－it serves as a vehicle to other areas.“Music is an amazing tool to unlock students' potential.The most visible benefit from their success in music is their increased confidence and self?es?teem，” Peterson said.“However，I don't believe it is the only benefit，nor the most powerful.It is truly exciting to see how my music teaching can transfer to other classrooms.” With this philosophy，Peterson introduced a cross?curriculum program，wherein she takes lessons taught in other classes，such as English and math，and expands upon them in an eight?week unit.
    One of the most popular projects in Peterson's classes is the creation and performance of a musical，and whereby students create a play from one of the books they have read in another class.Students work together to choose the music that best fits with the overall feel of the play and then perform it for the greater community.“Through Andrea's efforts these kids have helped to put Granite Falls，Washington，on the map for musical talents.Parents，staff and community members continue to be in awe of what she is able to bring forth from the children，”said Debra Rose Howell，a colleague of Peterson's at Monte Crisco Elementary School.
    小题1:Initially Andrea Peterson planned to work as a(n) ________.
