17.When I was in middle school,I found out that my Algebra teacher Mrs.McClure had gone to high school with Dad.
"Gertrude McClure!"my dad said as he pointed at her picture in my yearbook."Same Old Gertie."He told me to tell Mrs.McClure that he said hello."When she finds out,you're my kid,it will blow her mind!"he said.
When I told Mrs.McClure so,she asked me."What's your dad's name?"
"David MUrphy,"I answered.
"I don't believe it!"she said.
"What was my Dad like in school?"I asked Mrs.McClure.She explained that dad wasn't really known for having an active interest in his studies.Unlike my dad,I had more than an active interest in my studies.I was in an eighth grade math class even though I was a seventh grader,and I was on both the math team and the academic games team.I won first place in a national championship and I firmly believed that maybe those flavor of achievements would qualify me for 2.9% financing on a mortgage (按揭),a six-figure job or at least,get me some kind of prize for being a good person.
This was the first time that I had noticed that my dad and I didn't really have a lot in common except that we both liked to read and we had the same group of relatives.
Dad was on the football team and in the drama club.He was in the Air Force and was the kind of guy that made friends everywhere he went.I remember once when I was little,a bunch of British sailors from the HMS Ark Royal coming over to our very small mobile home one day.They played darts (飞镖),barbequed,and talked funny things.I loved it.I figured since my dad had been in the armed forces,he must have known them from then.But later in life,I realized that my dad was in the Air Force stationed in the Philippines during the Vietnam War and these guys were in the British Navy during peacetime docked in South Florida.The odds (可能性) that he knew them were slim.I asked my mom how Dad knew all these guys.My mother told me,"We took the public tour of the ship and you know your dad."

36.How did the author's father recognize Mrs.McClure was his former schoolmate?A
A.Through a picture in the author's yearbook.
B.Through the author's description.
C.During an accidental meeting.
D.By attending a school meeting.
37.When the author told his teacher that his father was her schoolmate,she feltD.
A.happy  B.shy  C.terrible  D.amazed
38.Why did the author study hard to get as many achievements as he can?C
A.To get praise from his teacher. 
B.To win reputation for his school.
C.To get a well-paid job. 
D.To win his parents'favor.
39.What kind of person was the author's father in his schooldays?C
A.He was good at sports. 
B.He was extremely popular among girls.
C.He was not quite fond of studies. 
D.He was hard and clever.
40.We can infer from the passage that the British sailors from the HMS Ark RoyalD.
A.paid a visit to his father's office
B.loved playing cards and chess
C.were in the American Navy during peacetime
D.came across his father on a trip.

39.C  细节理解题,根据She explained that dad wasn't really known for having an active interest in his studies.可知父亲对学习不是很感兴趣,故选C.

12.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.
Many students in the colleges and universities are found taking no notice of the waste of water,electricity or paper.
There is a phenomenon which can often be seen in students'public washrooms.A basin of clothes is put under a tap which is turned on at the maximum,and the water in the basin is spilling over,but there is no one in the washroom.The owner of the clothes comes back and pours out half of the water in the basin.
The same thing happens in the use of electricity in the colleges and universities.During supper time,all the lights are turned on.However,there are only several or even no students in the classroom,which can hold over a hundred students.At night,some of the dormitories are locked,but the lights are still on inside.Quite a few students explain themselves that they don't have to pay the extra electricity cost even if they overuse it because they have paid the school fee already.
When typing the exam paper and thesis,many students type the paper only on the one side.Few students type the paper on the both sides.The reason is that they think the price of typing on one side or both sides on a piece of paper is the same.As a result,it causes a large amount of paper waste.

评分标准
概括准确,语言规范,内容合适,语篇连贯.A number of students in the colleges pay no attention to the waste of water,electricity and paper,which causes a large amount of energy to be wasted.
In my opinion,it is wrong for college students to do so.It's a shame that many of them keep on wasting energy.They shouldn't do this even if they pay for it.So it is necessary for us students to enhance the awareness of saving energy.The waste and overuse of energy has influenced ecological balance,which will have a harmful effect on our environment and threaten our existence.
Personally,I think we can save much energy in our daily life.First,we can walk or ride bicycles to school.If schools are too far away from our homes,we can take buses instead of taking private cars or taxis.Second,we should write on both sides of paper.Besides,we can take reusable bags with us when shopping.Fourth,we can save electricity by turning off the lights or other electrical appliances when we sleep or leave the rooms.In addition,we can reuse the water after washing to clean the toilets.
In a word,as long as we make efforts,a lot of energy can be saved and the environment can be protected..

7.阅读下面材料,然后按要求写一篇150词左右的英语短文.
On the morning after the rainstorm,a man was walking on the beach,enjoying the beautiful view of the nature.Suddenly,he found thousands of starfish(海星) trapped in the shallow puddles(水坑) on the beach.As the sun rose,the water in the puddles was disappearing and the starfish began to struggle for life desperately.However,they still had no hopes to go back to the sea not far away.
As the man continued walking,he noticed a little boy picking up the starfish one by one and throwing them into the ocean.Then he went over and asked the boy,"What are you doing?"The boy replied,"I'm throwing starfish back into the water.If I leave them here,they'll dry up and die."The man said,"But look how many starfish there are.What you're doing can't possibly make a great difference to all of them."As the boy picked up another starfish and threw it into the ocean,he said,"Well,it makes a difference to this one!"Then he added,"Though I can't save all of them,I can make some of them survive with my efforts."
Moved by the lovely and warm-hearted boy,the man bent down to pick up the struggling starfish and threw them into water.Every time he threw the starfish into the water,he felt their fate was changing.

A man noticed a boy repeatedly picking up the trapped starfish and throwing them into the sea despite being unable to save all of them.Consequently,the man was moved and joined the boy to save the struggling starfish.
Reading the impressive story,I find the boy was so kind-hearted that he should really deserve praise from all the people.Young as he was,he fulfilled what was incredible to people.Actually,the young boy set a good example,especially to the young.
My meaningful experience of offering help to a schoolmate will never escape from my memory.When I was in Senior Two,one of my schoolmates suffered from a severe and rare disease,which cost his parents all their savings and even put them heavily into debt.For lack of money,he was unable to get further medical treatment.Knowing this,I together with my classmates called for all the students and friends to collect money for him.It was our timely efforts that helped him out of hardships.Eventually he was saved.
As the saying goes,"A small act of kindness goes a long way."Therefore,I appeal to all the people to get involved in the campaign of offering a hand to others.I think only when we offer assistance to each other voluntarily can we live in a harmonious society..
