Immediately I got up and dressed, stuck my violin under my jacket, and went out into the streets to try my luck. I wandered about for an hour, looking for a likely spot, feeling as though I were about to commit a crime. Then I stopped at last under a bridge near the station and decided to have a try.

I felt tense and nervous. One moment I was part of the hurrying crowds, the next I stood apart, my back to the wall, my hat on the pavement before me, the violin under my chin.

The first notes I played were loud and raw, then they settled down and began to run more smoothly. To my surprise I was neither caught nor told to shut up. Indeed, nobody took any notice at all. Then an old man without stopping secretly threw a penny into my hat, as if getting rid of some guilty evidence.

Other pennies followed, slowly but steadily, dropped by shadows who appeared not to see or hear me. It seemed too easy, like a secret trick.

I worked there for several days, gradually getting the truths of the trade by trial and error（反复试验）.It was not a good thing, for example, to let the hat fill up with money; nor was it wise to empty it completely. Placing a couple of pennies in the hat to start the thing going soon became a regular rule.

41．When he first began to play the violin, he expected________.

A．to get into trouble                                                               B．to play better than he did

C．people to stop and listen to him             D．to be told to move somewhere else

42．The first man who gave him money________.

A．was too busy to stop                            B．wanted to get rid of him

C．dropped the money by mistake              D．did not want to attract attention

43．He gradually became confident that day because________.

A．nobody looked at him                          B．he played the violin very well

C．people continued to give him money      D．he earned a lot of money

44．On the following days, he________.

A．made a lot of mistakes                         B．learned how to do the job better

C．get better at playing the violin               D．did not make so much money

45．He found that the best way of encouraging people to give him money was to________.

A．play in different streets                        B．leave all the money in the hat

C．empty the hat at regular times               D．leave a small amount of money in the hat

第一节 阅读理解（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分）

阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D项中，选出最佳答案。

We’ve talked about snails (蜗牛) and their slow move. But much of the time snails don’t move at all. They are in their shells (壳) —sleeping.

Hot sun will dry out a snail’s body. So at the least sign of hot sun, a snail draws its body into his shell. A snail will die in a heavy rain. So when it rains, a snail does the same thing, too. A snail can sleep for as long as it needs to. It spends all  the winter months in its shell, asleep.

In the spring the snail wakes up. Its body, about three inches long, comes out from the shell. When hungry, the snail  looks for food. Its eyes, at the end of the top feelers (触角), are very weak. But its sense (感觉) of smell is very strong. It helps the snail to find food and the new greens.

A snail’s mouth is no bigger than the point of a pin (大头针). Yet it has 256,000 teeth! The teeth are very small, and you can’t see them. If you put a snail in a hard paper box, it will eat its way out! And if a snail wears out its teeth, it will grow new ones.

51. A snail _________.

A. moves more slowly at night        B. has thousands of  feet

C. doesn’t move at all                     D. sleeps much of the time

52. In the sentence “A snail draws its body into its shell”,  the word “draw” means _____.

A. to make with a pencil    B. to push      C. to pul     D. to move away

53. From the story, we know _________.

A. a snail’s shell is very thin               B. a snail can’t see well

C. a snail’s nose is quite short             D. a snail’s body changes                                     in different seasons

54. A snail goes to sleep when _____.

A. it feels hungry      B. it is put into a paper box  C. spring is coming   D. it rains heavily

55. Which of the following is wrong?

A. In winter the snail doesn’t eat or move.

第一节：阅读理解（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分）

阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项。

In 2008, the main candidates（候选人）for President each used this expression: “You can put lipstick（口红）on a pig, but it is still a pig.” This means that it is a waste of time to change something from ugly or unpleasant–looking to beautiful.

There are other expressions about improving a pig’s appearance, like this one: “A hog in a silk waistcoat is still a hog.” Hogs are similar to pigs, only bigger. Americans use many other expressions about pigs, hogs and female hogs called sows, like this one, “You cannot make a silk purse out of a sow’s ear.” This means you cannot create something valuable from something that has no value. Then there is the expression “Cast pearls before swine（猪）.” That means wasting something valuable on someone who will not be thankful or care about it.

Hogs, which are very large animals, take up a lot of space but people should not take up more than their share. If one of your children is taking up too much space sitting in front of the television, other children might say: “Do not hog the couch.” And a road hog is a driver who uses more than his share of the road. Such a driver increases dangers for other drivers.

Pig terms are also used in American politics. Farmers mark their pig’s ears to identify them. In politics, earmarks are money set aside for projects in a congressman’s home state.

In many areas, pigs provide ham, bacon and other pork products to eat. All Americans want to be able to bring home the bacon because they want to earn enough money to provide the necessities of life. Experts say this term was first used in the 1920s. But it is believed to come from the much older game of catching a greased（涂了油的）pig. This was a popular event at country fairs in which the winner was awarded the pig.

41. The author writes this passage mainly to _________.

A. express his support for the Presidential Election

B. introduce some expressions used in Americans’ daily life

C. criticize the bad influence caused by expressions about pigs

D. discuss some problems caused by expressions about pigs

42. If you give a good book to a person who can’t read, which of the following is the most suitable to describe it?

A. Cast pearls before swine.

B. You can put lipstick on a pig, but it is still a pig.

C. A hog in a silk waistcoat is still a hog.

D. You cannot make a silk purse out of a sow’s ear.

43. A driver who takes up too much space on the road is often referred to as _________.

A. a greased pig                                         B. a couch hog

C. a road hog                                             D. a road earmark

44. How many words which refer to the same animal are mentioned in this passage?

A. Three                    B. Four                     C. Five                      D. Six

45. Which of the following expressions are similar to “You cannot make a silk purse out of a sow’s ear.”?

A. When pigs fly!                                            B. To eat like a pig

C. To sell a pig in a pork.                                 D. To sweat like a pig.

第一节：阅读理解（共20小题，每小题2分，满分40分）

阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

Ask any person who is successful in whatever he or she is doing what motivates him/her, and very likely the answer will be "goals". Goal Setting is extremely important to motivation and success. So what motivates you? Why are you in college? If you are in college because that's what your parents want, you may find it difficult to motivate yourself. Sure, it's possible to succeed with someone else providing the motivation for you. ("If you graduate from college, I'll give you a car!" or worse "If you don't graduate from college, you won't get a car.") But motivation that comes from within really makes the difference.

Certainly, you need some intelligence, knowledge base, study skills, and time management skills, but if you don't have motivation, you won't get far. Think about this analogy. You have a car with a full tank of gas, a well-tuned engine, good set of tires, quadraphonic CD system, and a sleek, polished exterior(外表). There it sits. This car has incredible potential. However, until a driver sits behind the wheel, puts the key in the ignition(点火装置), and cranks it up, the car doesn't function. You guessed it; the KEY is MOTIVATION.

Interest is an important motivator for a student. So is a desire to learn. When you link these two things together, you create success. Often success in an endeavor(努力) leads to more interest and a greater desire to learn, creating an upward spiral(螺旋形) of motivation toward a goal you have established.

So be honest with yourself. Are you genuinely interested in being in college? Have you set realistic goals for yourself? How can you develop the internal motivation that really counts? When it comes to motivation, KNOWING is not as important as DOING.

1. Why does the writer give the example of a car in the second paragraph?

Because people can never go far without a good car.

B. Because a good car motivates some college students to study harder.

C. Because a good car is a symbol of being a success.

D. Because motivation leads people to success like it starts a car.

2.  What is the CORRECT comparison between the internal motivation and the external (外部的)motivation?

A. Only the internal motivation can result in success.

B. Internal motivation is more important than external motivation.

C. Internal motivation and external motivation has equal importance.

D. External motivation is enough for people to achieve success.

3.  According to the article the following factors can push people towards their goals EXCEPT __________?

A. interest                          B. the desire to learn

C. the knowledge of motivation         D. the sense of success

4.  What’s the main purpose of the article?

A. To encourage everyone to develop motivation for whatever they are doing..

B. To inspire college students to set goals for their college life.

C. To imply that the less motivated college students quit the college.

D. To call on parents to give up their over-protection of their children.

5. What may be the writer’s advice to the potential readers?

A. The goals you set for yourself shouldn’t be far beyond your reach.

B. You needn’t attend college if you are really not interested in it.

C. You should work harder to win praise from others.

D. Honesty is the best policy to solve problems in your life.

A  teenage girl is fighting for her life today after being struck by lightning as severe thunderstorms swept across Britain. The girl was one of four teenage girls from London who were hit by lightning in the Parade Ground area of Hyde Park during a storm.  Earlier, Joseph Wharton, 14, died as he was struck by lightning while camping in his friend’s backyard in the West Midlands.

A spokesman for Scotland Yard said the girl remained in serious condition at St. Mary’s Hospital in Paddington. She had stooped breathing by the time the first paramedic arrived on the scene just two minutes after the strike at 5:40 p.m. yesterday.

The other three girls hit by the bolt all had injuries, and were taken to University College Hospital. Their conditions were not serious, the spokesman added. The strike lifted the girls into the air and then dropped them to the ground, a witness reported.

A spokesman for the London Ambulance Service said paramedics risked their lives to treat the girls. “The storm was still overhead and lightning was still coming down while they were treating the patients,” he said. “All staff involved acted very professionally in providing fast treatment to these patients in very difficult circumstances.” Scotland Yard said the incident was being looked into by officers from the Royal Parks’Operational Command Unit.

Joseph Wharton of Byland Way, Bloxwich, was hit during the extended thunderstorm which struck the region yesterday morning. He was pronounced dead at Walsall Manor Hospital.

He had been sleeping in a tent while staying with school friend Michael Lees at a house on nearby Cresswell Crescent.

West Midlands Ambulance Service said paramedics were called at 7:50 a.m. and unsuccessful attempts were made to revive the sports-mad teenager. A spokesman for the Royal Society for the Prevention of Accidents said four or five people die each year as a result of lightning strikes in the UK.

1.All four girls  _______________.

A  were killed by the lightning             B  were seriously injured

C  were being treated at the same hospital    D  were lifted up and dropped to the ground

2  The underlined word “bolt” probably means  “ ______________”

A  thunder    B  rain     C  storm     D  lightning

3  Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?

A  The boy was killed after the four girls had been hit.

B  The paramedics began to treat the girls after taking them to the hospital.

C  First-aid was given to the girls during the storm.

D  The boy was hit by lightning in the Parade Ground area of Hyde Park.

4  It can be inferred from the passage that _______.

A  many British people die from lightning strikes every year

B  the writer blames the government for the accident

C  the paramedics could also have been hit by lighting while aiding the girls.

D  Joseph had been playing in the open air before the strike

5  This passage is probably taken from a _______.

A  magazine   B  newspaper   C  science fiction     D  weather report

American like to visit the national parks. In 1996, over 250,000,000 people visited areas run by the National Park Service. Experts predict that by 2010, 500,000,000 people per year will visit the parks. As a result, people are trying to think of ways to protect the parks from the crowds.

The crowding of the parks has caused several problems. One is that there is not enough space for all of the people who want to use the parks. To cope with this problem, national parks may require reservations months in advance for some spots. The Park Service may also raise entrance fees at these places.

Another problem caused by increased park use is pollution. Some garbage and waste can be cleaned up, and the cleanup can be paid for by increased entrance fees. To cut down on noise pollution and air pollution, officials may decrease the number of cars allowed in parks. If this happens, people may use buses to travel around the parks. Officials may also limit the use of jet-skis, snowmobiles (摩托雪橇), motorboats, and sightseeing helicopters and planes.

The parks are also threatened by development that is going on around them. For example, around Yellow Stone Park, many motels (汽车旅馆), golf courses, resorts, and other tourist attractions have been built. Some of these developments affect areas that are used by animals. People will have to learn to agree about ways to protect the parks. If they do not, there will soon be no reason to visit these national treasures.

1. By 2010, the number of visitors will rise by ______ per year.

A. 250 million              B. 500 million              C. 2.5 billion         D. 5 billion

2. If you want to visit the national parks, you may have to _____ in the future.

A. pay less than before                         B. stay there for months

C. book the ticket before months           D. fill in a form to apply for the ticket

3. Entrance fees may be increased _______.

A. just for the benefit of the National Park Service

B. either to limit the number of visitors or to pay for the cleaner

C. not only to protect the animals but to reduce the noise pollution

D. merely for the development of the national parks

4. What does the underlined sentence in the passage mean?

A. People are not supposed to visit the national parks for fear that they will harm the animals.

B. Only if more man-made tourist attractions are built will more people visit the parks.

C. It is reasonable to keep the balance between the development of the parks and the reserve.

D. People will not visit the national parks since there are no golf courses and resorts.

5. What can be inferred from the passage?

A. High fees may probably keep some people out of parks.

B. Helicopters and planes will not be used in parks any longer.

C. The bus will become the only toot in parks with the purpose of pollution reduction.

D. The National Park Service welcomes as many visitors as possible.

A man once said how useless it was to put advertisements in the newspaper. "Last week," he said, "my umbrella was stolen from a London church. As it was a present, I spent twice its worth in advertising, but didn't get it back."

"How did you write your advertisement?" asked one of the listeners, a merchant.

"Here it is," said the man, taking out of his pocket a slip cut from a newspaper. The other man took it and read, "Lost from the City Church last Sunday evening, a black silk umbrella.. The gentleman who finds it will receive ten shillings on leaving it at No. 10 Broad Street."

"Now," said the merchant, "I often advertise, and find that it pays me well. But the way in which an advertisement is expressed of extreme importance. Let us try for your umbrella again, and if it fails, I'll buy you a new one."

The merchant then took a slip of paper out of his pocket and wrote: "If the man who was seen to take an umbrella from the City Church last Sunday evening doesn't wish to get into trouble, he will return the umbrella to No.10 Broad Street. He is well known."

This appeared in the newspaper, and on the following morning, the man was astonished when he opened the front door. In the doorway lay at least twelve umbrellas of all sizes and colors, and his own was among them. Many of them had notes fastened to them saying that they had been taken by mistake, and begging the loser not to say anything about the matter.

1. What is an advertisement?

Snowboarding（滑板滑雪） became a Winter Olympic event in 1998 but many people still don’t think it’s a “real” sport. I asked ten of my friends about this and eight of them said it shouldn’t be an Olympic event. Snowboarders must be skilful and strong, just like other athletes(运动员), and they train just as hard. So, why do people have this opinion?

Well, I think there are a few reasons. First of all, snowboarders believe that having fun is part of the sport. Maybe people think they’re enjoying themselves too much. I guess they feel that “real” sports should look like hard work. Secondly, snowboarders believe it’s of importance to show their personal style. They like to be dressed in modern clothes and often have interesting haircuts. In some people’s eyes, a well-trained athlete just doesn’t wear a funny hat or a nose-ring. Thirdly, it’s a new sport and many people haven’t tried it yet. This might make them think it’s easy, when, in fact, it’s not. Snowboarding is just as difficult, if not more difficult, than skiing.

Whatever the reasons, I think it’s time we accept that having fun doesn’t mean you’re lazy and that someone with blue hair can be a champion(冠军).
