AIt was Thanksgiving morning. I was busy preparing the traditional Thanksgiving turkey when the doorbell rang. I opened the front door and saw two small children in rags huddling together on the top step.“Any old papers, lady？” asked one of them.I was busy. I wanted to say “no” until I looked down at their feet.They were wearing thin little sandals(凉鞋), wet with heavy snow.“Come in and I'll make you a cup of hot cocoa.”They walked over and sat down at the table. Their wet sandals left marks upon the floor. I served them cocoa and bread to fight against the cold outside. Then I went back to the kitchen and started cooking.The silence in the front room struck me. I looked in. The girl held the empty cup in her hands, looking at it. The boy asked in a flat voice, “Lady, are you rich？”“Am I rich? Pity, no！”I looked at my worn­out slipcovers(椅套). The girl put her cup back in its saucer(茶碟)carefully and said, “Your cups match your saucers.” They left after that, holding their papers against the wind. They had reminded me that I had so much for which to be grateful.Plain blue china cups and saucers were only worth five pence. But they matched.I tasted the potatoes and stirred(搅动)the meat soup. Potatoes and brown meat soup, a roof over our heads, my man with a regular job, these matched, too.I moved the chairs back from the fire and cleaned the living room. The muddy marks of little sandals were still wet upon my floor. Let them be for a while, I thought, just in case I should begin to forget how rich I am.36．Which of the following would be the best title for the text?A．Lady, are you rich?B．A story of Thanksgiving DayC．Don't forget how rich you areD．Does cups and saucers match well?37．The writer let the two children come in and served them well because________.A．she wanted to sell old papers to themB．she wanted to invite them to her Thanksgiving partyC．she showed great pity and care on themD．she had the same experience as them in the past38．Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage?A．The girl thought the writer was rich just because she wanted to make the writer happy.B．The writer had thought she wasn't rich because her supplies were not expensive.C．If cups and saucers match well, they are a best pair even though cheap.D．After hearing what they said, the writer seemed to understand what a rich life was.39．The writer left the muddy marks of little sandals on the floor for a while to________.A．show that she was a kind­hearted ladyB．remind her that she shouldn't forget how rich she wasC．leave room for readers to think about what being rich isD．prove that she had understood what meant being richBAs the global financial crisis hits the economy, it's tough finding a job—especially if you're competing with thousands of other hopeful students. Sometimes you get the interview, but don't quite seem to land the job because you don't have related experience. Don't despair! Here are a few tips that might give you an edge.★ Get connected to your network and try to expand it. Talk to friends, family and acquaintances. Let everyone know you are looking for a job.★ Prepare your resume (个人简历) carefully and be sure it's perfect. Have someone else read it over for typos (打字错误) and grammatical errors. Get professional help. It's worth the money to present yourself well. If money is tight, read books on resume writing from your public library or search for free help on the Internet.★ When you apply for a job, be sure you match and list any skills listed on the posting with the skills you have. If you get an interview, be sure to describe those skills thoroughly. Just having the skills is not enough. Expressing your abilities well can make all the difference in getting the job.★ Research typical interview questions and practice interviewing. Be well prepared for every interview.★ Don't be afraid to accept a position for which you are overqualified—if there's room for advancements. Many great job advancements come from first doing well at an entry­level position. If you have the right skills and attitude, it won't be long before you're in the job you want.★ Volunteer for a few weeks in your field of study to gain experience if you feel your resume needs an improvement.★ When deciding what to wear for an interview, think about the position level and the dress code of the organization.★ Use every tool available to you. For example, this site has many job links for your use.Good luck!40．Which of the following is NOT mentioned as a reason for the failing to find a job?A．The global financial crisis.B．The serious competence.C．Your lack in related skills.D．Your lack in related experience.41．What's the author's advice on the resume?A．To read it over several times by yourself.B．To get professional help even if it costs.C．To copy something from books.D．To publish it on the Internet.42．If you lack related experience you can________.A．make up some in your resumeB．read books to get second­handed oneC．do some related voluntary workD．get some training at schools43．Which of the following statements on interviews is RIGHT?A．Have a few questions ready to ask the interviewer.B．Describe clearly your ability to the interviewer.C．Refuse the interviewer's offer of another position.D．Wear new clothes for the interview.CBoys need friends, suffer when they don't believe they have any, and worry over the ups and downs of relationships. Many adults believe that somehow boys need friends less than girls do, in truth, though, no boy is an island; boys value their friends throughout childhood and adolescence and are happier and healthier when they have solid relationships with peers(同龄人)．Despite the common belief that girls are better at relationships, most boys consider their friends a very important part of their lives, and boys may actually be better at keeping friendships than girls are. A recent studyof 10 to 15­year­old boys a nd girls found that girls' friendships are actually more fragile. Girls tend to say and do hurtful things to each other more frequently than boys, and girls are more hurt by the end of a friendship.Boys are the living definition of the phrase “peer group”； they love games with rules, competition, and doing things together. Boys seem to enjoy, even need the opportunity to test themselves against others, and many lasting friendships begin in karate(空手道) class or on the basketball court. Competence and skill are widely respected; being picked last for a team or left out altogether is an experience that can haunt(萦绕心头) a boy for years.As boys mature, the friendship becomes even more important, and it frequently widens to include girls. During the teen years, friends can become the most important part of a boy's life—and a part in which his parents are not included. The confusion of being a teenager leads boys to form close bonds with friends. There is the sense for many boys that a friend is someone who is “always there for me”， someone he can trust. They may be partners in crime or partners in study, but the friendship of adolescent boys can run surprisingly deep.44．The common belief of adults is that boys________.A．don't care about others as much as girlsB．don't value friendship as much as girlsC．have the same friendship as girlsD．have healthier friendship than girls45．According to the text, boys' friendship________.A．is usually built around active playB．tends to be in small groupsC．can bear mutual hurt between friendsD．doesn't suffer from failure46．The author mentions the study in the second paragraph to prove ________.A．many people believe girls are better at relationshipsB．most boys consider their friends very importantC．boys may be better at keeping friendships than girlsD．boys may be more active in a friendshipDThe number of speakers of English in Shakespeare's time is estimated(估计) to have been about five million. Today it is estimated that some 260 million people speak it as a native language, mainly in the United States, Canada, Great Britain, Ireland, South Africa, Australia and New Zealand. In addition to the standard varieties of English found in these areas, there are a great many regional and social varieties of the language as well as various levels of usage that are employed both in its spoken and written forms.In fact, it is impossible to estimate the number of people in the world who have acquired an adequate(足够的) working knowledge of English in addition to their own languages. The purpose for English learning and the situations in which such learning takes place are so varied that it is difficult to explain and still more difficult to judge what forms an adequate working knowledge for each situation.The main reason for the widespread demand for E nglish is its present­day importance as a world language. Besides serving the indefinite needs of its native speakers, English is a language in which some of important works in science, technology, and other fields are being produced, and not always by native speakers. It is widely used for such purposes as meteorological and airport communications, international conferences, and the spread of information over the radio and television networks of many nations. It isa language of wider communication for a number of developing countries, especially former British colonies. Many of these countries have multilingual populations and need a language for internal communication in such matters as government, commerce, industry, law and education as well as for international communication and for entrance to the scientific and technological developments in the West.47．What would be the best title for this passage?A．The Difficulties of Learning EnglishB．International CommunicationsC．The Standard Varieties of EnglishD．English as a World Language48．Which of the following statements is NOT true?A．Some 260 million people in the world have an adequate working knowledge of English.B．There are some 260 million native speakers of English in the world.C．It is almost impossible to estimate the number of people with an adequate working knowledge of English.D．People learn English for a variety of reasons.49．According to the passage, what is the main reason for the widespread use of English?A．It was popular during Shakespeare's time.B．It is used in former British colonies.C．It serves the needs of its native speakers.D．It is a world language that is used for international communication.50.What forms an adequate working knowledge of English?A．The ability to read a newspaper.B．It is difficult to judge because it differs for each situation.C．Being a multilingual.D．Being a native speaker.第二节(共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分)根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余选项。
