    A
    Amiya Olden could have been a poster child for a reading crisis that affects nearly 2 million Michigan residents older than 1 6：They read below a sixth-grade level，which makes it difficult to find jobs and to improve their lives．Among them，Amiya is one．
    Amiya Olden remembers well the day she graduated from Denby High school．She handed her diploma to her mother，who read it to her．“Then when someone asked me to read it，I could remember the things she read，and I knew what I had to say，”recalled Amiya Olden．“When we would go out to restaurants with my aunts，and that is when I really would get upset．1 would see words on the menu but I couldn’t read! ”
    But don‘t feel sorry for her. She changed her life by reaching a point where she’d read enough．Two summers ago，she took charge of her life when she walked into Pro Literacy Detroit to improve her reading．Nineteen months ago，she was reading at a second-grade level；now at a fifth-grade level．
    Olden now splits her days between her classes at Pro Literacy and the library，where she checks out books and reads them．She says she hopes her improved reading skills will help her find a good job．
    And she has advice for others，who have trouble reading．
    “Don’t give up on it，”she said．“Even though it can be challenging and you might get frustrated sometimes，practice does help．If you really want to be able to go somewhere，go out to a restaurant and you have to read signs and things like that，you want to know what you want to eat and where you want to go．．．If you want to succeed in life and grow，you have to read．More  important，you have to feel confident that you can．”
    56．Amiya' mother read the diploma to her so that_________．
    A．she could encourage her daughter to improve her reading
    B．her daughter could remember the content of the diploma
    C．they both could remember the particular moment

    A．get another diploma                 B．improve her reading level
    C．find a good job in the training center     D．be a poster child for the reading crisis
    58．From the passage we can see in Michigan__________．
    A．many people can’t find good jobs due to poor reading
    B．the job market pays too much attention to reading
    C．most students can’t graduate from high school
    D．the reading crisis affects only poor people
    59．Which of the following is true of Amiya?
    A．She is 16 years old now．
    B．A good job has been offered to her．
    C．She is an adviser for those with reading difficulty．
    D．Most of her time is divided between her classes and the library．
    60．With the study at Pro Literacy，Amiya is now             ．

    Section  B
    Directions: Read the following passage. Answer the questions according to the information given in the passage and required words limit.
    Junior Achievement is an international movement to educate young people about business and economics. It has helped many of them succeed in a world economy since it was founded.
    The organization is the largest of its kind. JA Worldwide says it reaches over eight million students each year in more than one hundred countries. Programs begin in elementary school and continue through middle and high school. The education is based on the ideas of market-based economics and entrepreneurship.
    Junior Achievement began in 1919 in Springfield, Massachusetts. Two business leaders, Horace Moses and Theodore Vail, joined with Senator Murray Crane of Massachusetts to start it.
    For more than fifty years, Junior Achievement programs met after school. They began as a group of business clubs. The organization started with a number of children of ages ten to twelve.
    But in nineteen seventy-five, Junior Achievement began to offer classes during school hours. Many more young people joined the organization once it began to teach business skills as part of the school day.
    Volunteers from the community teach about businesses, such as how they are organized, and how products are made and sold. They also teach about the American and world economies and about industry and trade.
    The Junior Achievement Company Program teaches young people how entrepreneurship works. They learn about business by operating their own companies.
    The students develop a product and sell shares in their company. They use the money to buy the materials they need to make their product, which then they sell. Finally, they return the profits to the people who bought shares in the company.
    Junior Achievement says two hundred eighty-seven thousand volunteers support its programs around the world. In the United States alone, there are more than twenty-two thousand places that hold Junior Achievement events.
    Junior Achievement Incorporated and Junior Achievement International combined their operation in two thousand four. They formed Junior Achievement Worldwide. Its headquarters are in Colorado Springs, Colorado.
    81. What is the passage mainly about?(within 15 words)
    ___________________________________________________________________________
    82. How long a history does JA have? (within 8 words)
    ___________________________________________________________________________
    83. What do volunteers of JA teach about? (within 10 words)

     Directions: Read the following passage. Complete the diagram by using the information from the passage.
    Write NO MORE THAN THREE WORDS for each answer.
    Dolphins are not fish; they’re mammals. They are warm-blooded like man and give birth to one baby called a calf at a time. At birth a calf is about 90—130cm long and grows to about 4m. They live up to 40 years. They are highly sociable animals.
    Their teeth are interlocking rows of hooks, suitable for holding slippery fish. They eat fish whole starting with head first. When they go wild they keep their mouth open and sometimes keep it nodding to express their aggression. Greater aggression is shown by violent jaw clapping. Dolphins breathe through their blowhole(呼吸孔) located at the top of their head. The dolphin’s eyes produce a special slippery secretion(分泌物) which protects the eyes from foreign objects and water friction.
    Dolphins use their powerful tail to move through the water. They also use their tail while hunting. They slap their tail rapidly when they get annoyed or when they want to indicate the sign of danger to alert other dolphins.
    The dolphin’s skin is completely smooth allowing the dolphin to move easily through the water, and also reduce heat loss. Their skin may bear rake marks from other dolphin’s teeth during play or mating, and can easily become badly sunburned if they strand(搁浅).
    Their bodies are very streamlined so they may swim at high speed through the water, and an example of this is their ears. Dolphin’s ears are barely noticeable marked only by a small hole just behind the eyes.
    While sleeping, it shuts down only half of its brain, as its breathing is under voluntary control. Dolphins take short catnaps, floating just below the surface, and then slowly rising to breathe. Often dolphins are very active during night time, for some this is their main feeding time. Dolphins are able to dive to great depths, and also leap to great heights. They may leap to avoid predators or to show how powerful they are to females at mating time.

    B
    One of my fondest memories as a child is going by the river and sitting idly on the bank. There I would enjoy the peace and quiet, watch the water rush downstream and listen to the chirps of birds and the rustling of leaves in the trees. I would also watch the bamboo(竹子) trees bend under pressure from the wind and watch them return gracefully to their upright or original position after the wind had died down.
    When I think about the bamboo tree’s ability to bounce back or return to its original position, the word resilience （恢复力）comes to mind.  When used in reference to a person, this word means the ability to readily recover from shock, depression or any other situation that stretches the limits of a person’s emotions.
    Have you ever felt like you are about to snap（突然折断）? Have you ever felt like you are at your breaking point? Thankfully, you have survived the experience to live to talk about it.
    　　During the experience you probably felt a mix of emotions that threatened your health. You felt emotionally drained, mentally exhausted and you most likely endured（忍耐） unpleasant physical symptoms（症状）.
    　　Life is a mixture of good times and bad times, happy moments and unhappy moments. The next time you are experiencing one of those bad times or unhappy moments that take you close to your breaking point, bend, but don’t break. Try your best not to let the situation get the best of you.
    　　If the going gets tough and you are at your breaking point, show resilience. Like the bamboo tree, bend, but don’t break!
    60．When the writer talks about the bamboo trees, he wants to tell us          .
    A．he can’t forget those bamboo trees
    B．he used to watch them bend under pressoure and return to their upright position
    C．he still remembers the good days as a child
    D．he admires the character of the bamboo trees
    61．Which of the following is TRUE?
    A．When you have overcome some depression, you show resilience.
    B．When you are about to snap, we say you are resilient.
    C．If you feel like you are at your breaking point, you are fortunate.
    D．If you feel mentally exhausted, you are likely to experience pleasant physical symptoms.
    62．What does the writer mean by saying “Try your best not to let the situation get the best of you?”
    A．You should make the best of the situation.
    B．You should try your best to get the best situation.
    C．You should try your best not to be defeated by the situation.
    D．You should try your best not to give up the best situation.
    63．What would be the best title for the passage?
    A．My fondest memories     B．Good times and bad times
    C．Enjoy the peace and quiet       D．Bend, but don’t break

    Many children first learn the value of money by receiving an allowance.  71 
    The amount of money that parents give to their children to spend as they wish differs from family to family. Timing is another consideration.  72 Others get a monthly allowance.
    In any case, parents should make clear what, if anything, the children is expected to pay for with the money.
      73 If they do this, they will learn the hard way that spending must be done within a budget. Parents are usually advised not to offer more money until the next allowance.
    The object is to show young people that a budget demands choices between spending and saving. Older children may be responsible enough to save money for larger costs, like clothing or electronics.
    Many people who have written on the subject of allowances say it is not a good idea to pay your child for work around the home. These jobs are a normal part of family life.
    Paying children to do extra work around the house, however, can be useful.  74 
    Allowances give children a chance to experience the three things they can do with money.  75 They can spend it by buying things they want. Or they can save it.
    A．They can share it in the form of gifts or giving to a good cause.
    B．The purpose is to let children learn from experience at an age when financial mistakes are not very costly.
    C．They are not less likely to make mistakes.
    D．Some children get a weekly allowance.
    E. It can even provide an understanding of how a business works.
    F. Their parents will teach them a hard lesson.
    G. At first, young children may spend all of their allowance soon after they receive it.

    B
    I’m a pig, and my son is a rabbit. I have snakes for daughters, and my wife, believe it or not, is a dragon! Do I live in a zoo? No, of course not! I am talking about Chinese zodiac signs. Depending on the year of your birth, each person has an animal for a sign. That’s why I am a pig and my wife is a dragon. If you, like me, were born in the year of the pig, then you are brave, thoughtful and loyal. The year of the pig is filled with good fortune.
    　　Now let’s take a closer look at this interesting animal.
    　　Pigs were first raised by man about 9,000 years ago, and are still a very common farm animal in many parts of the world. We don’t just use pigs for their meat — almost every part of the animal is used. The hair is used for artists’ brushes. The fat is used to make floor wax, rubber and plastics.
    　Pigs have also been important in the world of entertainment. In 1995 the film ‘Babe’ starred a loveable talking pig as its main character. The film won an Oscar and was nominated for 6 more. In England you can even go to watch pig racing. A farmer, Rob Shepherd, has been raising money for charity by holding pig races on his farm. The events have been very successful. People don’t just want to eat pigs, it seems!
    　Pigs also play an important role in the English language. For example, if someone says that he will travel to the sun one day, you can say “pigs might fly!” to him. Hungry? Well then, you can “pig out” and eat lots of food. And what if someone rescues you? Well, you can say that they “saved your bacon”.
    44. The writer wrote the first paragraph in a ______ tone.
    　　A. sad　　　　　　B. confused 　   　C. serious　　　　 D. humorous
    45. We may know from the passage that ______.
    　　A. people in England like pigs more than other animals
    　　B. pigs are more useful than ordinary people imagine
    　　C. pigs are the first animals raised by man
    　　D. more people don’t want to eat pigs now
    46. The underlined sentence “pigs might fly!” in the fifth paragraph means “______”.
    　　A. What you have just said is impossible
    　　B. Pigs are great animals
    　　C. I don’t understand your words
    　　D. I can’t agree with you more
    47. Which diagram shows the structure of the passage?
