If parents forbid their children from doing something, chances are that they will do it 5 without permission anyway. The role of a parent must, therefore, change from that of protector and keeper to that of friend and6 .Yet even the most caring parents misunderstand their children sometimes, and some think of teenagers as insecure, stubborn and 7 .As a result, teenagers always keep their 8 from their parents.

Umbrella is what we easily forget and leave behind in our daily life. When the weather is fine, we certainly don’t think of it; only when it's raining, we’ll carry it purposefully. But as soon as the rain stops, most likely we’ll forget 16 we’ve put it. It has to wait patiently and pitifully for 17 owner to claim it, otherwise it’ll remain alone as a deserted umbrella.Once I suddenly found my longtime 18 (use) umbrella “disappeared”.I really got lost and regretted quite some time 19 my own carelessness. Several days later, out of my 20 (expect), I saw it quietly stand in a corner of the house where I worked. I was extremely glad to regain it. Looking carefully at it, though it was so familiar 21 me, I found for the first time its wooden handle 22 (wear)out as a result of repeated rain-wash for years. I sought for it only when I needed it. It occurred to me that I should have paid 23 (much) attention to it.It sets me thinking. Around us there are always people giving us supporti n s i l e n c e j u s t l i k e24 umbrella that protects us from the rain or any wretched weather. Will gou think of those individuals 25 have helped you get through difficlty when you are leading a fortable life?II、阅读(共两节,满分50分)第一节:阅读理解(共20小题,每小题2分,满分40分)阅读下面几篇短文,从每题所给的A、B、C和D项中,选出最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
AI am a single working mother and going to college for a better life for my three-year-old child and myself. I am taking a nurse course called “Urban munity(社区)”. We were asked to do a major project on problems in urban munities. I chose the topic “Homeless”.Each day I would walk down the streets of the homeless and offer themsomething to drink and to eat. I know it’s tough to survive on the streets. Last night I ran into a group of 30 kids who were living on the streets in New York. My heart went out to them and I just wanted to cry. But I had to be strong.I asked about their families and if they contacted them to let them know they were alive. Most of them said, “NO!” They all looked like a happy family and they took care of one another. I tried to persuade them to get help and to contact their families but they did not want to. I did not want to make them to do it as they had their own reasons.All these kids were very respectful. None of them was high on drugs nor were they drinking. Some of them enjoyed reading and writing. Some of them enjoyed skateboarding, dancing and playing music.One girl asked me if I could give her a hug and I did so.

She ran away. Her street name was Little Mary.They were good kids just trying to make ends meet. I told them that I didn’t have much to offer because I was a single mother just making ends meet.

How to Survive on the StreetsBI was going to Paris, which I’d always wanted to see. But now I was frightened to travel alone. I arrived at the train station in Paris. I hadn’t spoken my colle ge French for twenty years. On my first metro ride,I came across an inpetent(不胜任的)thief. I just stared at him, and he stopped his hand from my purse and disappeared into the crowd. Somewhere in this confusing city was my hotel hidden, but the directions suddenly weren’t easy to find. When I finally found the hotel, my heart was beating heavily, and I was sweating like a basketball player. I couldn’t stay. Could I? The wallpaper looked like it had been through a fire. The bathroom was downstairs, and the window looked out onto the brick wall of another building. Wele to Paris. I sincerely wanted to die. I missed my friends.I was entering my third week away from home and my kids, and I had arrived in the most romantic city in the world, alone, lonely and frightened. The most important thing I did in Paris happened at that moment. I knew that if I didn’t go out, right then, and find a place to have dinner, I would hide in this small room my entire time in Paris. I might never learn to enjoy the world as a single individual. So I went out. Evening in Paris was light and pleasant. I walked along a path, listening to birds sing, watching children float toy boats in a huge fountain. No one seemed to be in a hurry. Paris was beautiful. And I was here alone and suddenly not lonely. My sense of acplishment overing my fear and weakness had left me feeling free. I wore out two pairs of shoes during my week’s stay in Paris. I did everything there was to do, and it was the greatest week of my European vacation. I returned home, being a believer in the power of traveling alone. Now when I meet difficulties I just say to myself, “If I can go to Paris,I can go anywhere.”31. What happened on my first metro ride?A. I came across a skillful thief.B.

Scott Fitzgerald, a screenwriter who had his share of ups and downs in this land. Fitzgerald was not a successful Hollywood writer because he was not good at the career path he chose. He was an amazing novelist, but his efforts of turning them into screenplays ended in disappointment and confusion. It was because of a lack of potential for screenwriting as well as his addiction and desire to be famous.Growing up as a boy, Fitzgerald went to movies a lot. He wanted to write stories that would eventually turn into movies. The problem was: just because Fitzgerald wante d to do something didn’t necessarily mean that he was good at it. He made his attempts, but most of these efforts ended in disappointment because he thought about the change from script(剧本)to screen too much. His plot was too detailed and plicated; his tone was too serious or his dialogue too sentimental(感伤的).Fitzgerald’s quick rise to fame also led to his fall. In life, things are not meant to happen all at once, all that the same time but it did for Fitzgerald. At his best time, three of his early stories were made into short films, including The Great Gatsby and Babylon Revisited. As the twenties approached, he was gradually forgotten by the reading public. He became drunk and constantly took pills both to sleep and wake up. His marriage was destroyed and his wife broke down mentally. He seemed unsure about his life.Fitzgerald had another chance at success when many opportunities came his way, including revisions of Emlyn William’s play The Light of Heart and production of one of his own scripts, Cosmopolitan. However, these wereall put aside and he was right back where he started, left behind and called a “ruined man”. Fitzgerald simply wanted too much in his life. He wanted “to be both a great novelist and a Hollywood success, to write songs like Cole Porter and poetry like John Keats”. His addiction to fame held him back and led to his failure as a Hollywood writer.36. Which is a reason that Fitzgerald failed in screenwriting?A. He was not talented in screenwriting.B. He had a miserable family life.C. He spent too much time watching movies.D. He was greedy for money in his life.37. Fitzgerald’s screenwriting was _____.A. disappointing in endingB. plex in plotC. playful in toneD. simple in dialogue38. Which of the following was NOT written by Fitzgerald?A. The Great GatsbyB. Babylon RevisitedC. The Light of HeartD. Cosmopolitan39. When Fitzgerald had another chance at success, he ______.A. took full advantage of itB. went back home to start businessC. refused to make changesD. started to write songs and poems40. What is the best title of the passage?A. Fallen for Fame Addiction: F. Scott FitzgeraldB. An Inch into Fame: F. Scott FitzgeraldC. F. Scott Fitzgerald: A Great NovelistD. F. Scott Fitzgerald: A Great ScreenwriterDI am a vegetarian(素食主义者). Many people are quick to think of vegetarianism as strange behavior. I treasure our Earth, and since we only have one, we should protect it and the wildlife that lives on it. But that’s only one of the reasons to be a vegetarian.Vegetarians may live longer, healthier lives. There is a connection between red meat consumption and various diseases. From an economic standpoint, it requires less land, money and energy to produce foods for a vegetarian diet. While there are many benefits to being a vegetarian, only a handful of those who attempt to adopt this lifestyle succeed. The most important quality required to be a vegetarian is firmness since surrounded by the temptation of meat, we tend to give up vegetarianism easily. Creativity is almost as important as mitment. It’s easy to tire of eating nothing but salad. But with a little creativity and some soy products, almost any meal can bee vegetarian-friendly.Not everyone wants to be vegetarian. Accepting this is part of being a vegetarian with style. Forcing your beliefs on others is disrespectful. Stylish vegetarians should also be able to turn down a meaty dish politely without annoying their hosts.Being a successful vegetarian has been easy for me, but it may not be so for others. A mon mistake is quitting before your body has adjusted to thechange. It can be difficult to keep the lifestyle in the beginning because of temptation. However, it fades over time. Another mon mistake is quitting because you’ve been misinformed about the nutritional wisdom of being a vegetarian. That’s why it is vital to be educated. Countless people will tell you that it’s impossible to obtain the nutrients and protein(蛋白质)your body requires without meat, but they are incorrect. People actually need only 44-55 grams of protein a day, and that is easily found in a vegetarian diet. Many meat eaters are consuming three times that amount, which is not beneficial. It leads to diseases. Vegetables can also supply all the vitamins, minerals and nutrients your body needs. However, if you’re still not convinced, you can take a multi-vitamin.41. According to the passage, being a vegetarian helps ______.A. protect the wildlifeB. free people from diseasesC. rid people from strange behaviorsD. develop a better economy42. What’s the underlined word temptation in Paragraph 3 closest in meaning to?A. Unpleasant tasteB. Extreme attractionC. Great consumptionD. Significant importance43. Stylish vegetarians do not ______.A. force others to be vegetariansB. respect other people’s beliefsC. turn down hosts gracefullyD. refuse an offer of meat44. Which of the following is NOT true?A. Many people give up before their bodies can adjust to the transition.B. Many people quit because they’re poorly educated about nutrition.C. Consuming 150 grams protein a day can be harmful.D. Vegetarians need multi-vitamins to keep healthy.45. Which of the following is NOT mentioned in the passage?A. Reasons why the author became a vegetarian.B. Important qualities required to be a vegetarian.C. Advantages and disadvantages of being a vegetarian.D. mon mistakes on the way to being a vegetarian.第二节:信息匹配(共5小题,每小题2分,满分10分)阅读下列应用文及相关信息,并按要求匹配信息,在答题卡上将对应题号的相应选项字母涂黑。
