My ears are recently full of joyous remarks from my friends such as, “Oh, Beckham is so handsome, so cool, that I can’t help falling in love with him!” or “What perfect skills he has!” Yeah, I 36 to some degree, though I sometimes do want to 37 them how much they know about Beckham, apart from his 38 and how much they know about football 39 scoring goals. It seems funny that we are 40 for things, with which we are unfamiliar or about which we are 41 but we all, my friends as well as I, consider this one of life’s 42 .
We need these pleasures to 43 our lives. But that doesn’t amount to (等同于) craziness or nonsense. As an old saying 44 : “Don’t judge a book by its cover.” We 45 not judge anything from its appearance. We should all know, it is one’s good character and great __46 that make one a star and unforgettable. Therefore we’d better say 47 about Beckham’s good looks.
If we close our eyes, falling in deep 48 , we can find that the things that move us to be really happy or sad have a 49 meaning. If we don’t go deeper and are just satisfied with
50 things, sooner or later we will find that we have not really gained anything because our first __51 has blinded and misled (误导) us, and we’ll remain ignorant (无知的) 52 we realize that and make some changes.
It is believed that thinking and going deeper than before is a 53 of great progress. If one day we are __54__ to go deeper into everything, no matter how much it pains us, we will __55__ prove how much we have grown up, how much more sensible, mature (成熟的), and intelligent (智慧的) we have become.

第三部分：阅读理解（共20小题，满分40分）
阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项A、B、C、D中选出最佳选项。
A
Long bus rides are like television shows. They have a beginning, a middle, and an end with commercials thrown in every three or four minutes. The commercials are unavoidable. They happen whether you want them or not. Every couple of minutes a billboard glides by outside the bus window. “Buy Super Clean Toothpaste.” “Drink Good Wet Root Beer.” “Fill up with Pacific Gas”. Only if you sleep, which is equal to turning the television set off, are you free from the unending cry of “You Need It! Buy It Now!”
The beginning of the ride is comfortable and somewhat exciting, even if you’ve traveled that way before. Usually some things have changed new houses, new buildings, sometimes even a new road. The bus driver has a style of driving and it’s fun to try to figure it out the first hour or so. If the driver is particularly reckless (鲁莽的) or daring, the ride can be as thrilling (惊心动魄的) as a suspense (悬疑) story. Will the driver pass the truck in time? Will the driver move into the right or the left hand lane? After a while, of course, the excitement dies down. Sleeping for a while helps pass the middle hours of the ride. Food always makes bus rides more interesting. But you’ve got to be careful of what kind of food you eat. Too much salty food can make you very thirsty between stops.
The end of the ride is somewhat like the beginning. You know it will soon be over and there’s a kind of expectation and excitement in that. The seat of course ,has become harder as the hours have passed. By now you’ve sat with your legs crossed, with your hands in your lap ,with your hands on the arm rest even with your hands crossed behind your head. The end comes just at no more ways to sit.

D. To describe the billboards along the road.
58. The writer of this passage would probably prefer ______________.
A. bus drivers who are reckless B. driving alone
C. a television set on the bus D. no billboards along the road
59. The writer feels long bus rides are like TV shows because ____________.
A. the commercials both on TV shows and on billboards along the road are fun

Smile, when making an introduction.
Every day we meet people in a number of business and social situations. And the way we meet and greet them creates an impression. It’s important to do so in a proper way, no matter whether you are introducing yourself to someone, or introducing two people to each other. To keep you aware of this, we have gathered tips on how to make a proper introduction.
◎Always stand when making an introduction.
When you are seated and someone comes up to greet you, make the effort to stand up. By doing this, you show respect for yourself and for the other person.
◎Always maintain eye contact(接触) while making an introduction.
Many people are not aware of the value of this simple action. When you make eye contact you are giving a confident image.
◎Always introduce a person of lesser authority(权威) to one of greater authority. The most important thing to remember is to say the most important person’s name first.
For example, when introducing your supervisor(管理者，领导) to a job candidate(候选人), you would give your
supervisor’s name first. “Bob Jones, may I introduce Susan Lee, who has just
graduated from
◎In a situation where rank(等级) is unimportant, an introduction is based on sex and age. A man is presented to a woman and a younger woman to an older woman.
What if you find yourself in a situation where you have forgotten the other person’s name? Start with a handshake and reintroduce yourself. By doing this, you will usually cause the other person to do the same.
However, if the other person does not take your suggestion, it is OK simply to apologize and let the person know that you cannot remember her or his name. This is not the ideal situation, of course, but it does happen to all of us. The other person should be forgiving.
61. The article gives you advice on _________.
A. how to make a self-introduction
B. how to make a proper introduction
C. how to leave a good impression on people
D. how to greet people in social situations
62. According to the passage, people will think you are ______ if you don’t make eye contact with them.
A. not honest B. not confident C. shy D. unfriendly
63. What should you do when you introduce a new worker to your boss?
A. You should not give your boss’ name.
B. You should give the new worker’s name first.
C. You needn’t give your boss’ name.
D. You should give your boss’ name first.
64. If you forget the other person’s name, you’d better ________.
A. ask him/her directly
B. apologize first and then ask him/her
C. shake hands with the person and reintroduce yourself
D. consider his age first
C
We have two daughters: Kristen is seven years old and Kelly is four. Last Sunday evening,
we invited some people home for dinner. I dressed them nicely for the party, and told them that their job was to join Mommy in answering the door when the bell rang. Mommy would introduce them to the guests, and then they would take the guests’ coats upstairs and put them on the bed in the second bedroom.
The guests arrived. I introduced my two daughters to each of them. The adults were nice and kind and said how lucky we were to have such good kids.
Each of the guests made a particular fuss over Kelly, the younger one, admiring her dress, her hair and her smile. They said she was a remarkable girl to be carrying coats upstairs at her age.
I thought to myself that we adults usually make a big “to do” over the younger one because she’s the one who seems more easily hurt. We do it with the best of intentions.
But we seldom think of how it might affect the other child. I was a little worried that Kristen would feel she was being outshined. I was about to serve dinner when I realized that she had been missing for twenty minutes. I ran upstairs and found her in the bedroom, crying. I said, “What are you doing here, my dear?”
She turned to me with a sad expression and said, “Mommy, why don’t people like me the way they like my sister? Is it because I’m not pretty? Is that why they don’t say nice things about me as much?”
I tried to explain to her, kissing and hugging her to make her feel better.
Now whenever I visit a friend’s home, I make it a point to speak to the elder child first.
65. The underlined expression “make a big ‘to do’ over”(paragraph 4) means_____.
A. show much concern about
B. have a special effect on
C. list jobs to be done for
D. do good things for
66. We can conclude (得出结论) from the passage that_____.
A. parents should pay more attention to the elder children
B. the younger children are usually more easily hurt
C. people usually like the younger children more
D. adults should treat children equally
67. The guests praised Kelly for carrying coats upstairs because of her_____.
A. beautiful hair B. pretty clothes C. lovely smile D. young age
68. Kristen felt sad and cried because_____.
A. the guest gave her more coats to carry
B. she didn’t look as pretty as Kelly
C. the guests praised her sister more than her
D. her mother didn’t introduce her the guests
D
Since life is short and the world is wide, the sooner you start exploring it, the better. Soon enough the time will come when you are too tired to move farther than the terrace (台阶) of the best hotel. Go now.
No need, you may say, to
tell that. But what I do need to tell you is that you will meet with a
surprising amount of opposition(反对) the moment you try to set out. Rubbish, you will reply. More
people go abroad nowadays than ever before; never has travel, particularly
among the young, been more strongly accepted in international exchanges.
Perhaps not: but none of this, my dear young friends, is travel. Travel is not
going on a round coach trip for $
Real travel, then, is
independence in action, and is not liked by most parents. They don’t mind your
going in a school party to

71. Your parents allow you to travel in a school party because ________.
A. they want you to be truly free

When someone has deeply hurt you, it can be extremely difficult to let go of your anger. But forgiveness (原谅) is possible, and it can be surprisingly helpful to your physical and mental health. Indeed, research has shown that people who forgive report more energy, better appetite (胃口) and better sleep patterns. “People who forgive show less anger and more hopefulness,” says Dr Frederic Luskin, who wrote the book Forgive for Good. “So it can help save on the wear and tear on our system and allow people to feel more energetic (精力充沛).”
So when someone has hurt you, calm yourself first. Take a couple of breaths and think of something that gives you pleasure: a beautiful scene in nature, someone you love. Don’t wait for an apology. “Many times the person who hurt you may never think of apologizing,” says Dr Luskin. “They may have wanted to hurt you or they just don’t see things the same way. So if you wait for people to apologize, you could be waiting a very long time.” Keep in mind that forgiveness does not necessarily mean accepting the action of the person who upset you. Mentally going over your hurt gives power to the person who brought you pain. Instead, learn to look for the love, beauty and kindness around you. Finally, try to see things from the other person’s perspective (视角，看法). You may realize that he or she was acting out of ignorance (无知), fear and even love. To gain perspective, you may want to write a letter to yourself from that person’s point of view.
73. The text is mainly written to explain ________.
A. how to keep yourself from being hurt
B. how to stay mentally healthy
C. how and when to remain clam
D. why and how to pardon others
74. According to the writer, what is the right way to calm down after being hurt?
A. Try to figure out why you get hurt
B. Write a letter to the person who hurt you.
C. Persuade yourself to accept what others have done to you.
D. Think about pleasant things and forget about the hurt.
75. Dr Luskin advises us not to wait for an apology after being hurt because ________.
A. we are not patient enough
B. we’d feel worse accepting others’ apology
C. people seldom want to apologize
D. people don’t mean it when they apologize
