Our little boy came up to his mother in the kitchen one evening while she was preparing supper, and handed her a piece of paper that he had been writing on. After his mom dried her hands on her apron (围裙) , she read it, and this is what was said:

阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项中，选出最佳选项。
From age eight to eleven, I attended a small school in Bath, England. It was a small school of four classes with about twenty-five children in each class according to age. For the most part, one teacher had to teach all subjects to the children in the class. However, sometimes the headmaster, Mr. Ronald Broaches, would come in and spend an hour or so, teaching some subjects in which he was especially interested. He was a large man with a very happy nature. He had a sense of humor and would delight in telling the children small stories that would make us laugh. He was a very fair man and had a great influence on many of the children. In my own case, I found that he took great interest in me and he quickly found that I enjoyed puzzles. He would often stop me as I was going to class and take a piece of paper out of his pocket, often with a puzzle already on it. The puzzles were usually mathematical or logical. As time went on, they slowly got more difficult, but I loved them. Not only that, they made me interested in math and problem solving that stays with me to this day. They also served to show me that intellectual activity was rewarding when the correct answers were found, but perhaps more importantly it was great fun. To this day, I can remember Mr. Broaches’ cheerful cry of “Well done!” whenever I got a problem right. The simple communication with a man whom I loved greatly has had a deep influence on my life. I shall forever be thankful that our paths crossed. Mr. Broaches died just two weeks after I had won the 1993 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine. Unluckily, I had no chance to speak to him before he died. I learnt later that he had heard of my success and I will always hope that he knew the deep influence he had made on my life.
56. There were ________ children in each class when Richard was in the school in Bath, England.A. 4 B. 8 C. 11 D. 25
57. From the text, we can learn that ___________.

A. Mr. Broaches had passed away before he won the Nobel Prize
B. he didn’t express his thanks before Mr. Broaches died
C. he couldn’t find Mr. Broaches after he grew up

第三部分：阅读(共20小题；每小题1.5分，满分30分)
阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D项中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
Most people want to know how things are made. They honestly admit, however, that they hardly know a thing when it comes to understanding how a piece of music is made. Where a composer begins, how he manages to keep going – in fact, how and when he learns his trade – all are covered in complete darkness. The composer, in short, is a man of mystery.
One of the first things the common man wants to know about is the part inspiration（灵感）plays in a composer’s work. He finds it difficult to believe that composers are not much interested in that question. Writing music is as natural for the composer as eating or sleeping for all. Music is something that the composer happens to have been born for.
The composer, therefore, does not say to himself: “Do I feel inspired?” He says to himself: “Do I feel like working today?” And if he feels like working, he does. It is more or less like saying to himself: “Do I feel sleepy?” if you feel sleepy, you go to sleep. If you don’t feel sleepy, you stay up. If the composer doesn’t feel like working, he doesn’t work. It’s as simple as that.
66. What would be the best title for the text?
A. Composer: a man of mystery B. Practice makes good music
C. Relation between sleeping and music D. Music: product of nature
67. The words “covered in complete darkness” underlined in paragraph 1 most probably mean__________
A. difficult to be made B. without any light C. black in color D. not known
68. Most people seem to think that a composer________.
A. finds it difficult to write music B. considers it important to have a good rest
C. should like to talk about inspiration D. never asks himself very simple questions
69. The author will most probably agree that composers_________.
A. are born with a gift for music B. are people full of mystery
C. work late at night for their music D. know a lot about eating and sleeping
70. What does the passage mainly talk about?
A. How the music produces.
B. How secret the composer’s work.
C. Why the composer is so popular with people.
D. What the composer often thinks about.

Everyone should learn to apologize. Apology languages do work. Have you ever tried to make an apology, only to be refused? It may be that you were offering partial apology in a “language” that was foreign to your listener. The five languages of apology include:
Apology Language 1: “I am sorry.”
List the hurtful effects of your action. NOT “I am sorry if…”, but “I am sorry that…”. You might ask if they want to add any points that you have not recognized.
Apology Language 2: “I was wrong.”
Name your mistake and accept your fault. Note that it is easier to say “You are right. ” than “ I am wrong.”, but the latter carries more weight.
Apology Language 3: “What can I do to make it right?”
How are you now? How shall I make amends for my mistake? How can I RESTORE YOUR CONFIDENCE that I love you even though I was so hurtful to you?
Apology Language 4: “I will try not to do that again.”
Engage in problem-solving. Do not make excuses for yourself such as: “Well, my day has just been so …” Instead, offer what you will change to prevent yourself putting them in the same bad situation again.
Apology Language 5: “Will you please forgive me?”
Be patient in seeking forgiveness. They may need some time or greater clarification of your input from Apology Languages 1-4.
Finally, your apology may not be accepted, but at least you know that you have been faithful in offering a sincere olive branch of peace.
49. According to the 1st paragraph, your apology may be refused mainly because ________.
A. your apology is not made loudly enough
B. your apology is not expressed well enough
C. your listeners can’t hear what you said clearly
D. your listeners can’t understand your language well
50. According to the author, which of the following expressions would be the LEAST acceptable while making an apology?
A. I am wrong. B. I am sorry that I hurt you.
C. I will try not to do that again. D. Well, my day has just been so upsetting.
51. What does the underlined phrase “make amends” (Paragraph 4) refer to?
A. make improvement B. make mistakes
C. make up for wrongdoing D. make up a conversation
52. What is the BEST title of the passage?
A. Tips for effective apologies B. Ways of refusing apologies
C. List of apology expressions D. Importance of apology languages

Christmas was an exciting season for my six-year-old son. For weeks, he’d been memorizing 36 for the “Winter Ceremony” in his kindergarten class. I went to 37 their rehearsal(排演).
As I waited, students were led into the room. Each class, 38 by their teacher, sat cross-legged on the floor. Then, each group, one by one 39 to perform their song. I didn’t expect anything other than fun.
My son’s class rose to sing “Christmas Love”. Those in the front row on the center stage held up large 40 , one by one, to spell out the 41 of the song. When the class sang: “C is for Christmas,” a child would hold up the letter C, then another would hold up “H” for happy, and on and on, 42 each child was holding up a letter, presenting the 43 message, “Christmas Love”.
The performance was going 44 , until suddenly we noticed her, a small, quiet girl in the 45 row holding the letter “M” upside down-totally 46 that her letter “M” appeared as a “W”. The audience began to laugh at this little girl’s 47 . But she had no idea that they were laughing at her, so she stood tall, 48 holding her “W”. 49 many teachers tried to quiet the children, the 50 continued until the last letter was raised, and we all saw it together.

My grandmother became a widow in 1970. Shortly after that, we went to the 36 shelter to pick out a dog to keep her 37 . Grandma decided on a little dog with a reddish-brown spot above each eye. 38 these spots, the dog was named Penny.
Grandma and Penny quickly became very 39 to each other, but that attachment grew much stronger about three years later 40 Grandma had a stroke（中风）. Grandma could no longer
41 , so when she came home from the hospital, she and Penny were 42 companions.
After her stroke, it became a real 43 for Grandma to let Penny in and out because 44 was at the bottom of a flight of stairs. So a mechanism（机械装置）using a rope and pulley（滑轮）was 45 from the door to a handle at the top of the stairs. Grandma just had to pull the handle to open and close the door. If the store was 46 Penny’s favorite dog food, Grandma would make one of us 47 Penny browned beef with potatoes in it. I can remember 48 my grandmother by saying that she loved that dog better than she loved her family.
As the years passed, it was not 49 for Grandma and Penny to separate each other. If Grandma went to take her nap（打盹）, Penny stayed by her side until she 50 . As Penny aged, she could no longer jump up on the bed, so she 51 on the rug （垫子）beside the bed. If Grandma went into the 52 , Penny would walk along beside her, wait outside the door and accompany her 53 to the bed or chair. Grandma never went anywhere without her 54 companion by her side.
The time came when both my grandmother’s and Penny’s 55 were failing fast. After fifteen years of loving companionship, Grandma and Penny passed away within a few hours of each other.
