We may learn from the text that Sue Townsend is _______.A. a writerB. an actressC. a musicianD. a directorBI had known for a long time that the people around me used a method of communication different from mine; and even before I knew that a deaf child could be taught to speak. I was conscious of dissatisfaction with the means of communication I already possessed. One who is entirely dependent upon the manual alphabet(手写字母)has always a sense of narrowness. This feeling always disturbed me. Finally I insisted on using my lips and voice. Friends tried to discourage this tendency, fearing it would lead to disappointment. But I persisted, and an accident soon occurred which resulted in the breaking down of this great barrier.In 1890 Mrs. Lamson, who had just returned from a visit to Norway, came to see me, and told me of Ragnhild Kaata, a deaf and blind girl in Norway who had actually been taught to speak. Mrs. Lamson had scarcely finished telling me about this girl’s success before I was on fire with eagerness. I decided that I, too, would learn to speak. I would not rest satisfied until my teacher took me, for advice and assistance, to Miss Sarah Fuller, principal of the Horace Mann School. This lovely, sweet-natured lady offered to teach me herself.Miss Fuller’s method was this: she passed my hand lightly over her face, and let me feel the position of her tongue and lips when she made a sound. I shall never forget the surprise and delight I felt when I uttered my first connected sentence, “It is warm.” True, they werebroken syllables; but they were human speech. My soul came out of bondage(束缚), and was reaching through those broken symbols of speech to all knowledge and all faith.24. Why did friends prevent the author from practicing speaking?A. They were unfriendly.B. They liked her manual alphabet better.C. They couldn’t find a good teacher for her.D. They thought it was impossible for her to speak.25. What inspired the author to learn to speak?A. Mrs. Lamson’s visit to Norway.B. A visit to the Horance Mann School.C. Ragnhild Kaata’s story.D. Miss Fuller’s advice.26. How did the author feel when speaking her first sentence?A. Happy and scared.B. Pleased and astonished.C. Excited and warm.D. Amused and excited.27. Which proverb can best desc ribe the author’s story?A. Practice makes perfect.B. A friend in need is a friend indeed.C. He knows most who speaks least.D. Nothing is impossible to a willing heart.CMr. Dow’s store was widely known throughout the neighborhoo d.Every day after school, little Joy came to the store to look around.He loved to look at the pipes. One pipe especially caught his eye.He looked around the store. Nobody was looking. He put the pipe in his hand.Joy watched his feet begin to move and take him out of the store. A feeling of terror now raced through him. He had betrayed his mother. He had stolen, but he had not really meant to steal.The night was fast falling and it was time to go home. Time was running out. His mother would look for him. A hot tear ran down his cheek. She trusted him. This was the first year she had left him alone for three hours between school and the time she got home from work. She had to work to buy his clothes and to pay for their food and for a place to live. He re membered the nice way she said, “You are a little man now, Joy.” It made him sad when his mother’s words came back to him. She trusted him.Remembering this, he felt as if someone had stuck a sharp stick into his side. Her trust in him was all he could think about now. This was most important. Next to this, the pipe meant nothing.Joy looked at the long shadows coming toward him. He now knew what he had to do. And he was in a hurry to get it done. When he took the pipe, he left the store with slow unsure steps. Now his feet were quick, decisive, taking him straight back to the store like an arrow.Mr. Dow was just inside the door. The big man smiled. Joy wished he had not. Somehow, a bad friendly smile made it more difficult for Joy to do what he wanted to do. Joy was lost for a moment. His feet felt heavy. Suddenly, he held out the pipe. His voice struggled to come out from deep inside of the painful chest.“Mr. Dow,” he said at last, “I didn’t mean to take it.”“Thanks, Joy.” Mr. Dow said as he gently took the pipe from the boy’s hand. “How about staying around and helping me close up the shop?”Joy felt Mr. Dow’s big hand on his shoulder. And Joy felt his shoulders had become a little broader and stronger.28. What kind of a life did Joy and his mother live?A. A poor life.B. A new life.C. A happy life.D. A modern life.29. Why did Joy feel like being hurt by something sharp?A. He felt sorry for his mother.B. He couldn’t help the family.C. He had run away from school.D. He disappointed his m other’s expectations.30. What do we know about Mr. Dow’s smile to Joy?A. It’s broad.B. It’s warm.C. It’s false.D. It’s secret.31. Which of the following can be the best title for the text?A. An Interesting PipeB. A Powerful SmileC. Unconditional LoveD. Magic TrustDIf you are a recent social science graduate who has had to listen to jokes about unemployment from your computer major classmates, you may have had the last laugh. There are many advantages for the social science major because this high-tech “Information Age” demands people who are flexible and who have good communication skills.There are many social science majors in large companies who fill important positions. For example, a number of research studies found that social science majors had achieved greater managerial success than those who had technical training or pre-professional courses. Studies show that social science majors are most suited for change, which is the leading feature of the kind of high speed, high-pressure, high-tech world we now live in.Social science majors are not only experiencing success in their long-term company jobs, but they are also finding jobs more easily. A study showed that many companies had filled a large percentage of their entry-level positions with social science graduates. The study also showed that the most sought-after quality in a person who was looking for a job was communication skills, noted as “very important” by 92 percent of the companies. Social science majors have these skills, often without knowing how important they are. It is probably due to these skills that they have been offered a wide variety of positions.Finally, although some social science majors may still find it more difficult than their technically trained classmates to land the first job, recent graduates report that they don’t regret their choice of study.32. By saying that “you may have had the last laugh”in the first paragraph, the authormeans that you may have _______.A. shared the jokes with computer majors.B. earned as much as computer majors.C. found jobs more easily than computer majors.D. stopped joking about computer majors.33. Compared with graduates of other subjects, social science graduates _______.A. are ready to change when situations change.B. are better able to deal with difficulties.C. are equally good at computer skills.D. are likely to give others pressure.34. The underlined word “land” in the last paragraph probably means _______.A. keep for some timeB. successfully getC. immediately startD. lose regretfully35. According to the text, what has made it easy for social science graduates to find jobs?A. Willingness to take low-paid jobs.B. Readiness to gain high-tech knowledge.C. Skills in expressing themselves.D. Part-time work experience.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。
