She was determined and stubborn, but in a good way. She had a good heart. ”People knew her as “Grandma” because of her selflessness and her devotion to h elping hungry children and families. “She reminded people of their Grandma, ” Doody said.As a widow with a young child in 1979, Mrs. Cooper was helped through a difficult financial time when the Food Bank provided her with groceries. “She devoted her life to giving back, ”said her daughter, Monica Cooper.

Highlights of the tour include a visit to a toilet block dating from the late 19th century and a trip to the Kaiser’s fully restored bathroom at the Potsdamer Platz square.She also wants to use the tour to draw attention to the lack of toilets for tour groups in Berlin. Haase says that the toilet tours are in demand, especially from clubs and societies, as well as from people with a specialist or professional interest in the topic.“At first people tend to turn their nose up, but then they are generally surprised at the interesting facts that they learn about on the tour, ”she said.In keeping with the tour’s theme, the meeting point is at the 19th century toilet block at the Gendarmenm arkt square, while a restaurant called “The Loo” is the finishing point. There tourists are shown a Japanese automatic toilet which costs as much as a small car, according to Haase.59. What did Anna Haase mean by saying “I wanted to break a taboo”?A.

The Buddha is located in Sichuan Province, facing Min River, Qingyi River and Dadu River. In December, 1996, the Buddha was included by UNESCO on the list of the World Heritage(世界遗产).The statue was begun in the year 713 in the Tang Dynasty, and finished in the year 803. The Buddha is 71 meters high. The 8-meter-long instep(脚背)is big enough for one hundred people to sit on and the 28-meter-wide shoulder is large enough to be a basketball playground.A monk called Hai Tong is connected with the Buddha forever. At that time, wild waters brought out many boat accidents and people just put the disaster down to the presence of a water spirit. So Hai Tong decided to make a statue beside the river thinking that the Buddha would bring the water spirit under control. After 20 years’ begging from door to door, he finally collected enough money for the plan. When some local government officials tried to get this amount of money, Hai Tong said that they could get his eyeballs but not the money raised for the Buddha. After he dug out his eyeballs, these officials ran away scared. The project was half done when Hai Tong passed away, and two of his disciples(门徒)continued the work. After a total of 90 years’ hard work, the project was finally completed.Having such a long history, the Buddha was nearly destroyed by the wind and rain. The Chinese government began the repairing work in 1963 under the instructions of experts from UNESCO.63. What’s the main idea of this passage?A. To explain the Leshan Giant Buddha briefly.B.

In this passage, Hai Tong can be best described as.A. generousB. cruelC. easy-goingD. long-sufferingESeventy-three-year-old Gary selected his food in Value Mart more carefully than NASA chose its candidates for the space shuttle. Skim milk was $2. 99, on sale from $3. 49; white bread, 89 cents with a discount; table salt, 99 cents, 20 cents off the regular price. Leaving the cashier(收银员), he estimated that he had saved 80 cents today. He was pleased that he had got good value for his money again.At the exit, the cold wind reminded him of his gloves. “Now where are they ? ”Not in the coat pockets. Not in the grocery bag, either. The worried man made a thorough search of all his pockets, again including the grocery bag. Now he was sure they must have been dropped somewhere inside the store.Old Gary had bought the black gloves at a 25% discount ten years ago. His quick decision to buy the expensive gloves turned out to be a good one, which even promoted his social status on the bus, as poorer passengers stared at him enviously. Losing this favorite possession was almost like losing a child to him.Gary re-entered the store with long steps. He followed the same route he had walked before. There were all open passages and it did not take long to be convinced that the gloves were not in sight.“Society has changed; people have changed, ”he murmured to himself. “Years ago, if somebody picked up something lost, they would give it back. Not any more! ”On his way out, he went over to the cashier to ask if she had received any lost gloves. She asked him what colour they were, and when he said “black” , there came a disappointing answer. He took his time now, finally walking out of the store.Back home, Gary was at a loss. In deep winter, he could not do anything without a pair of gloves. He was very upset that people no longer returned things they found on the road.After a month, Gary decided to buy another leather pair. Before boarding the subway, he steppedinto Value Mart again to see if by any chance his gloves had been returned to the lost and found office. “What colour are they? ” the woman in the office asked again. “Black, ” he gave the same answer. She looked into her drawer and drew out a pair of men’s leather gloves. “Are they? ”“Yes! Those are mine! ”Gary exclaimed, his eyes glowing with joy.67. According to the passage, Gary thought his buying the gloves to be.A. unnecessaryB. wiseC. hot-headedD. adventurous68. What can we infer about Gary?A. He is not rich.B. He is particular about food.C. He holds a pessimistic attitude towards life.D. He doesn’t get along well with his neighborhood.69. In Gary’s opinion, why couldn’t he recover his gloves at first?A. He was not careful enough.B. The cashier forgot to return his gloves.C. A customer took his gloves by mistake.D. Someone picked up his gloves and kept them on purpose.70. What is the best title for this passage?A. Seeking glovesB. The stolen gloves returnedC. Declining moral standardsD. A forgetful but stubborn old man第四部分书面表达(共两节, 满分50分)第一节完成句子(共10小题; 每小题2分, 满分20分)阅读下列各小题, 根据汉语提示, 用句末括号内的英语单词完成句子。
