AThe park bench was deserted as I sat down to read beneath the branches of an old tree, with good reason to frown, for the world was intended to drag me down. At this time, a boy approached me. He stood right before me, and said with great excitement, "Look what I found!"In his hand was a flower, and what a pitiful sight, with its petals(花瓣)all worn. Wanting him to take his flower and go off to play, I faked a small smile and then turned to the other side.But instead of leaving, he sat next to my side and placed the flower to his nose and declared, “ It really smells pretty and it's beautiful, too. That’s why I picked it. Here, it's for you.”The flower before me was dying or dead. But I knew I must take it, or he might never leave .So I reached for the flower, and replied, Just what I need .But instead of placing the flower in my hand, he held it in mid-air. It was then that I noticed that the boy was blind.I heard my voice quiver(轻微颤抖) and at the same time my tears shone like the sun. As I thanked him for picking the very best one, he smiled and said, “you're welcome.” And then he ran off to play, unaware of the impact he’d had on me.I sat there and wondered how he managed to see a self-pitying woman beneath an old tree. Perhaps from his heart, he’d been blessed with true sight.Through the eyes of the blind boy, I could see the problem was not with the world; the problem was me. And for all of those times I had been blind. From now on I vowed to see beauty and appreciate every second that's mine. Then I held the flower up to my nose and breathed its fragrance and smiled as that young boy.21.

Which of the following can best describe the boy?A. Kind and optimistic.B. Independent and active.C. Handsome and intelligent.D.

The people at the shelter guessed that the beagle was 7-8 years old, so he still had a lot of life left, if he could be brought back to a normal weight.Unfortunately, dog pounds don't have the time or resources to work an abandoned animal back into good health. Plus, people don't like to adopt animals that are terribly overweight. Without someone's stepping in, this beagle would probably have been put down by giving a drug to end his suffering.Thankfully the good people of Karma Rescue, a non-profit organization which provides life-saving aid for pets in trouble, came to his rescue. He was given the name Darwin. Karma rescues a number of dogs, and they were still surprised at what appeared to be neglect （忽略）of the dog for its entire life.Darwin was about twice the weight that he should have been and even had a hard time walking. Having a beagle, we know how quickly a beagle can become overweight, which puts stress on their heart and causes other health issues.Beagles will eat anything put in front of them, and will eat it all. They don't know when or how to stop eating. We have experienced this when our beagle has gotten into our trash, gotten food on the kitchen counter, and even eaten a bag of chocolate chips. Thankfully our beagle survived his hard times and we have learned to "beagle proof（防护）" , the house when we leave.Darwin was in for a long journey back to health, but with the support of many people, he is down to a normal beagle weight and he is well on his way.24. The underlin e word “pound" in Paragraph 1 probably refers to a place.A. where dogs are trained to huntB. where people can buy or sell petsC. where sick or injured pets are treatedD. where homeless dogs are temporarily kept25. What would have happened to Darwin without Karma Rescue's help?A. He would have been poisoned to death.B. He would have been abandoned in the wild.C. He would have been adopted by a kind couple.D. He would have been returned to his former owner.26. What may they do to “beagle proof” th e house before leaving?A. Leave all the doors open,B. Place the trash near the beagle.C. Put all the food out of the beagle's reach.D. Build a thick and strong wall around the house.27. What is the best title for the text?A. The Transformation of an Abandoned BeagleB. Karma Rescue, a Non-profit OrganizationC. How to Keep Your Beagle in ShapeD. Kind People Bring Good LuckCTraditional Chinese medicine (TCM) is an ancient form of health care that dates back over 2,500 years, which aims to prevent or cure disease by maintaining or restoring yinyang balance. Fundamentally, TCM seeks to restore a dynamic balance between two complementary forces, yin (passive) and yang (active). According to the yinyang theory, a person is healthy when harmony exists between these two forces; illness, on the other hand, results from a breakdown in the balance.TCM practitioners (从业者)look to treat the root cause of disease and take a holistic approach to helping people experience complete recovery without the use of conventional drugs. TCM is “holistic”because it takes into account all aspects of a patient's life, rather than just several obvious symptoms. TCM practitioners view the body as a complex system, rather than separate organs. They use smell, hearing, touch, and pulse diagnosis (诊断)to discover the source of an unbalanced health condition. In addition, the practitioner typically makes use of what is known as five phases (wuxing). Using the five-phase theory, the practitioner can create a plan for treatment that might contain such components as herbs, lifestyle changes, and foods for recovery.Over the past several decades, TCM has been going global. It is now practiced in 183 countries and regions with 86 of them signing agreements with China to promote it. More and more medical schools are now recognizing the importance of training students and staff in “mind-body" practices that emphasize disease prevention and holistic treatments. A study of 3,200 physicians, conducted by Health Products Research, indicates that more than 50 percent of physicians in the U.S. planned to begin or increase use of TCM.28. What is the most important to stay healthy according to TCM?A. Having as little yin as possible.B. Ensuring much yang all the time.C. Staying away from conventional drugs.D. Keeping the balance between yin and yang.29. What does the last paragraph mainly talk about?A. The globalization of TCM.B. The history of TCM.C. The significance of TCM.D. The benefits of TCM.30. On what theories is TCM based according to this passage?A. Practitioner and patient.B. Yinyang and wuxing.C. Diagnosis and cure.D. Prevention and treatment.第二节七选五(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。
