    Prisoner Mitchell King had a visitor— his wife. King was serving a six-year prison term in Auckland, New Zealand for armed robbery. But his wife didn’t want to be away from him for that long. So they held hands and they stuck. She’s rubbed her palms with super glue.
    Their new-found closeness was short-lived. And their separation painful. Her technique is not one I'd recommend(introduce) for a closer relationship.
    But if you want more closeness; if you desire relationships that are deeper and broader, more meaningful and longer-lasting, then remember the word "TRAVEL."
    T is for TRUST. Trust is the glue that holds people together (not Super Glue). A relationship will go nowhere without it.
    R is for RESPECT. "Do not save your loving speeches for your friends till they are dead; speak them rather now instead," writes Anna Cummins. It's about respecting others and letting them know that you value them.
    A is for AFFECTION. Sometimes affection means love. Sometimes it means a touch. Always it means kindness.
    V is for VULNERABILITY(harm). Though we may feel afraid to let another too close, no relationship will go anywhere without risking vulnerability. Entrepreneur Jim Rohn says, "The walls we build around us to keep out the sadness also keep out the joy." And the love.
    E is for EMOTIONAL INTIMACY(亲密). Learn to be open. Learn to communicate freely. What kinds of relationships you make are largely determined by how openly you have learned to communicate.
    L is for LAUGHTER. Victor Borge got it right when he said, "Laughter is the shortest distance between two people." It's also the most enjoyable.
    For relationships that can really go somewhere, just remember the word "TRAVEL." Then enjoy the trip!
    6．The author intends to _________ by showing us the example in Paragraph One.
    A. condemn the wife for her silly behavior
    B. introduce new ways for closer relationships
    C. tell us King and his wife would never be separated
    D. encourage us to follow the wife’s technique
    7．The underlined word “it” in Paragraph Four refers to?
    A. Trust.                      B. Glue.                       C. Closeness.                D. TRAVEL
    8．Which of the following agrees with what Jim Rohn says?
    A. Walls should be built to keep out the sadness.
    B. It’s unnecessary to avoid vulnerability for closer relationships.
    C. Love will be kept out if you let another too close.
    D. We shouldn’t let another too close because of vulnerability.
    9．What does Victor Borge really mean by his word in the ninth paragraph?
    A. Laughter will keep the shortest distance.
    B. Laughter will make a closer relationship.
    C. No relationship will go without laughter.
    D. Laughter is necessary to make friends.
    10．What would be the best title for this passage?
    A. Relationships.                                       B. The story of a prisoner.
    C. A technique for good relationships.         D. Tips on closer relationships.

    6---10    BABBD  
    本文介绍了如何加深友谊。
    6．B 意图推断题。作者从一个极端的故事引出了写作内容，即介绍如何加深友谊。
    7．A 词义猜测题。上上文看，it指代的是trust这一概念。
    8．B 细节理解题。引用Jim Rohn的话是为了说明，如果担心因关系太近会造成伤害，是不明智的，因为与他人保持距离的同时，也就把朋友间的欢乐及关爱给隔开啦。
    9．B 细节理解题。笑可以拉近两人的距离，可以促进友谊的发展。
    10．D 主旨大意题。从文章内容和文章体裁可以准确判断答案应为D。

    Growing up together in Twin Falls, Idaho, Lisa Fry and Paula Turner never doubted their friendship would last forever. But after Fry married, moved to New York City and had a baby, her letters to Turner suddenly went unanswered. "Do you think I've somehow offended her?" Fry asked her husband.
    Turner, meanwhile, had thought she was no longer important to Fry. "She's got a family now," she told herself. "We're just too different to be close like before."
    Finally, Fry picked up the courage to call her old friend. At first, the conversation was awkward, yet soon they both admitted that they missed each other. A month later, they got together, laughing and sharing confidences.
    "Thank goodness I finally took action," Fry says. "We both realized we were as important to each other as ever."
    There are good reasons to value our friendships. Once a public-opinion research firm, Roper Starch Worldwide, asked 2007 people to identify one or two things that said the most about themselves. Friends far outranked（高于）homes, jobs, clothes and cars.
    “A stable friendship carries a long history of experience and interaction and keeps us connected,” says Donald Pannen, executive officer of the Western Psychological Association. "It is what we should protect." However, says Brant R. Burleson, professor of communication at Purdue University, "The better friends you are, the more likely you'll face conflicts." And even the result can be what you don't want--an end to the relationship.
    The good news is that most troubled friendships can be mended. Here's what experts suggest:
    ◆Swallow your pride.
    ◆Apologize when you're wrong--even if you've also been wronged.
    ◆See things from your friend's point of view.
    ◆Accept that friendships change.
    Making friends can sometimes seem easy, says Yager. The hard part is keeping the connections strong and long. Her suggestion: Consider friendship an honor and a gift, and worth the effort to treasure and develop.
    71．The first paragraph is written mainly to_______.
    A．complain something to her husband
    B．show Lisa Fry missed her friend
    C．show family is more important than friendship
    D．introduce the topic to be discussed
    72．The underlined word “awkward” in the third paragraph probably means______.
    A．uncomfortable      B．uninteresting      C．convenient        D．relaxed
    73．Which of the following statements is TRUE according to this passage?
    A．Once friendship is broken, there is no way to be repaired.
    B．People don’t value friendship over other things
    C．The more and better friends we make, the happier we are.
    D．Lisa Fry and Paula Turner were as important to each other as ever.
    74．Experts suggest that_________.
    A．Making friends should be no difficult experience.
    B．We should consider things for our friends first
    C．We should not have to apologize if it is not our fault
    D．Friendship should be one-way process and worth our effort.
    75．Which of the following would be the best title for this passage?
    A．A Broken Friendship       
    B．Opinions on Friendship and Friends
    C．What Is Good Friendship?   
    D．How to Mend a Broken Friendship

    Since many of you are planning to study at a college or university in this country, you may be curious to know what you usually do in a typical week, how you can get along with your fellow students, and so on. These are the questions I want to discuss with you today.
    First, let’s talk about what your weekly schedule will look like. No matter what your major may be, you can expect to spend between four and six hours a week for each class attending lectures. Lectures are usually in very large rooms because some courses such as introduction to sociology or economics often have as many as two or three hundred students, especially at large universities. In lectures, it’s very important for you to take notes on what the professor says because the information a lecture is often different from the information in your textbooks. Also, you can expect to have exam questions based on the lectures. So it isn’t enough to just read your textbooks; you have to attend lectures as well. In a typical week you will also have a couple of hours of discussion for every class you take. The discussion section is a small group meeting usually with fewer than thirty students where you can ask questions about the lectures, the reading, and the homework. In large universities, graduate students, called teaching assistants, usually direct discussion sections.
    If your major is chemistry, or physics, or another science, you’ll also have to spend several hours a week in the lab, or laboratory, doing experiments. This means that science majors spend more time in the classroom than non science majors do. On the other hand, people who major in subjects like literature or history usually have to read and write more than science majors do.
    59. The main purpose of this text is       .
    A. to help the students to learn about university life
    B. to persuade the students to attend lectures
    C. to encourage the students to take part in discussions
    D. to advise the students to choose proper majors
    60. We can learn from the passage that university professors       .
    A. spend about 5 hours on lectures each week
    B. must join the students in the discussion sections
    C. prefer to use textbooks in their lectures
    D. require the students to read beyond the textbooks
    61. A discussion section does NOT include       .
    A. working under the guidance of university professors
    B. talking over what the students have read about the courses
    C. discussing the problems related to the students’ homework
    D. raising questions about what a professor has said in a lecture
    62. According to the author, science majors       .
    A. have to work harder than non science majors
    B. spend less time on their studies than non science majors
    C. consider experiments more important than discussions
    D. read and write less than non science majors

    Photos that you might have found down the back of your sofa are now big business!
    In 2005,the American artist Richard Prince’s photograph of a photograph,Untitled (Cowboy),was sold for $1 248 000.
    Prince is certainly not the only contemporary artist to have worked with so-called “found photographs”—a loose term given to everything from discarded(丢弃的)prints discovered in a junk shop to old advertisements or amateur photographs from a stranger’s family album.The German artist Joachim Schmid,who believes “basically everything is worth looking at”,has gathered discarded photographs,postcards and newspaper images since 1982.In his on-going project,Archiv,he groups photographs of family life according to themes:people with dogs;teams;new cars;dinner with the family;and so on.
    Like Schmid,the editors of several self-published art magazines also champion(捍卫)found photographs.One of them,called simply Found,was born one snowy night in Chicago,when Davy Rothbard returned to his car to find under his wiper(雨刷)an angry note intended for someone else:“Why’s your car HERE at HER place?”The note became the starting point for Rothbard’s addictive publication,which features found photographs sent in by readers,such as a poster discovered in your drawer.
    The whole found-photograph phenomenon has raised some questions.Perhaps one of the most difficult is:can these images really be considered as art?And,if so,whose art?Yet found photographs produced by artists,such as Richard Prince,may raise endless possibilities.What was the cowboy in Prince’s Untitled doing?Was he riding his horse hurriedly to meet someone?Or how did Prince create this photograph?It’s anyone’s guess.In addition,as we imagine the back-story to the people in the found photographs artists,like Schmid,have collated(整理),we also turn toward our own photographic albums.Why is memory so important to us?Why do we all seek to freeze in time the faces of our children,our parents,our lovers,and ourselves?Will they mean anything to anyone after we’ve gone?
    In the absence of established facts,the vast collections of found photographs give our minds an opportunity to wander freely.That,above all,is why they are so fascinating.
    小题1:The first paragraph of the passage is used to_______.
    A．remind readers of found photographs
    B．advise readers to start a new kind of business
    C．ask readers to find photographs behind sofas
    D．show readers the value of found photographs
    小题2:According to the passage,Joachim Schmid_______.
    A．is fond of collecting family life photographs
    B．found a complaining note under his car wiper
    C．is working for several self-published art magazines
    D．wondered at the artistic nature of found photographs
    小题3:The underlined word “them”in Paragraph 4 refers to“_______”.
    A．the readers
    B．the editors
    C．the found photographs
    D．the self-published magazines
    小题4:By asking a series of questions in Paragraph 5,the author mainly intends to indicate that_______.
    A．memory of the past is very important to people
    B．found photographs allow people to think freely
    C．the back-story of found photographs is puzzling
    D．the real value of found photographs is questionable
    小题5:The author’s attitude toward found photographs can be described as_______.
    A．criticalB．doubtful
    C．optimisticD．satisfied

    　Without proper planning, tourism can cause problems. For example, too many tourists can crowd public places that are also enjoyed by the inhabitants of a country. If tourists create too much traffic, the inhabitants become annoyed and unhappy. They begin to dislike tourists and to treat them impolitely. They forget how much tourism can help the country’s economy. It is important to think about the people of a destination country and how tourism affects them. Tourism should help a country, keep the customs and beauty that attract tourists. Tourism should also advance the wealth and happiness of local inhabitants.
    　　Too much tourism can be a problem. If tourism grows too quickly, people must leave other jobs to work in the tourism industry. This means that other parts of the country’s economy can suffer.
    　　On the other hand, if there is not enough tourism, people can lose jobs. Businesses can also lose money. It costs a great deal of money to build large hotels, airports, air terminals, first- class roads, and other support facilities（配套设施）needed by tourist attractions. For example, a major international class tourism hotel can cost as much as 50 thousand dollars per room to build. If this room is not used most of the time, the owners of the hotel lose money.
    　　Building a hotel is just a beginning. There must be many support facilities as well, including roads to get to the hotel, electricity, sewers to handle waste, and water. All of these support facilities cost money. If they are not used because there are not enough tourists , jobs and money are lost.
    　小题1:Which of the following do you think has been discussed in the part before this selection？
    A．It is extremely important to develop tourism.
    B．Building roads and hotels is essential.
    C．Support facilities are highly necessary.
    D．Planning is of great importance to tourism.
    　小题2:The underlined word“ inhabitants” （in Paragraph 1 ） probably means________.
    A．touristsB．passengers
    C．populationD．citizens
    　小题3:Too much tourism can cause all these problems EXCEPT ________ .
    A．a bad effect on other industries
    B．a change of tourists’ customs
    C．over - crowdedness of places of interest
    D．pressure on traffic
    　小题4:It can be inferred from the text that ________ .
    A．the author doesn’t like tourism developing so fast
    B．local people will benefit from tourist attraction
    C．other parts of a country’s economy won’t benefit from tourism much
    D．we can't build too many support facilities

    Every people has its own way of saying things, its own special expressions. Many everyday American expressions are on colors.
    Red is a hot color. Americans often use it to express heat. They may say they are red hot about something unfair. When they are red hot they are very angry about something. The small hot tasting peppers found in many Mexican foods are called red hots for their color and their fiery taste. Fast loud music is popular with many people. They may say the music is red hot, especially the kind called Dixieland jazz.
    Pink is a lighter kind of red. People sometimes say they are in the pick when they are in good health. The expression was first used in America at the beginning of the twentieth century. It probably comes from the fact that many babies are born with a nice pink color that shows that they are in good health.
    Blue is a cool color. The traditional blues music in the United States is the opposite of red hot music. Blues is slow, sad and soulful. Duke Ellington and his orchestra recorded a famous song – Mood Indigo – about the deep blue color, indigo. In the words of the song: “You ain’t been blue till you’ve had that Mood Indigo.” Someone who is blue is very sad.
    The color green is natural for trees and grass. But it is an unnatural color for humans. A person who has a sick feeling stomach may say she feels a little green. A passenger on a boat who is feeling very sick from high waves may look very green.
    Sometimes a person may be upset because he does not have something as nice as a friend has, like a fast new car. That person may say he is green with envy. Some people are green with envy because a friend has more dollars or greenbacks. Dollars are called greenbacks because that is the color of the back side of the paper money.
    The color black is used often in expressions. People describe a day in which everything goes wrong as a black day. The date of a major tragedy is remembered as a black day. A blacklist is illegal now. But at one time, some businesses refused to employ people who were on a blacklist for belonging to unpopular organizations.
    小题1:If you had your wallet stolen while doing some shopping, you may call it        .
    A．a white dayB．a black dayC．a red dayD．a green day
    小题2:Suppose a Mr. Brown says he is very happy because his three children are all in the pink, this means all his children are         .
    A．lucky and wealthyB．gentle and modest
    C．fit and healthyD．creative and energetic
    小题3:When she got home and found nothing had been done by her husband, Jane was really      .

    Do you want to improve the way you study? Do you feel nervous before a test? Many students say that a lack of concentration is their biggest problem. It has bad effects on their ability to study, so do their test results.
    If so, use these tips to help you.
    Study Techniques  
    You should always study in the same place. You shouldn’t sit in a position that you use for another purpose. For example, when you sit on a sofa to study, your brain will think it is time to relax. Don’t watch TV while you are studying. Experts warn that your concentration may be reduced by 50 percent if you attempt to study in this way. Always try to have a white wall in front of you, so there is nothing to distract (make less concentrated) you. Before sitting down to study, gather together all the equipment you need. Apart from your textbooks, pens, pencils and knives, make sure you have a dictionary. If your study desk or table is needed when you are not studying, store all your equipment in a box beside it.
    Your eyes will become tired if you try to read a text which is on a flat surface. Position your book at an angle of 30 degrees.
    Be realistic and don’t try to complete too much in one study period. Finish one thing before beginning another. If you need a break, get up and walk around for a few minutes, but try not to telephone a friend or have something to eat.
    Test-taking Skills
    All your hard work will be for nothing if you are too nervous to take your test. Getting plenty of rest is very important. This means do not study all night before your test! It is a better idea to have a long-term study plan. Try to make a timetable for your study which lasts a few months.
    Exercise is a great way to reduce pressure. Doing some form of exercise every day will also improve your concentration. Eat healthy food too.
    When you arrive in the examination room, find your seat and sit down. Breathe slowly and deeply. Check the time on the clock during the test, but not too often. Above all, take no notice of everyone else and give the test paper your undivided attention.
    31. Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?
    A. You should study in a different place every day so that you don’t get bored.
    B. Your concentration will improve if you study and watch TV at the same time.
    C. Check the time during the exam at a certain time.
    D. Staying up all night is tiring, but you will learn a lot using this method.
    32. What does the underlined word “it” refer to?
    A. Your study desk or table.                               B. Your textbook.
    C. Your dictionary.                                                D. The equipment you need.
    33. What can be inferred from the passage?
    A. You shouldn’t look at everyone else during the test.
    B. You’ll have enough energy to deal with and concentrate on your study and exams better by eating healthy diet.
    C. You’ll concentrate more if there is nothing to distract you.
    D. If you need a break during study, you can walk around for a few minutes.

    There were a lot of hardships when growing up, but there were a lot of fond memories as well.
    Back in those days, we had very little money, so we couldn’t afford a garden tractor that could make gardening easier. All the preparations has to be done by hand with hoes(锄头)，shovels and Daddy’s trusty plow(犁).
    Part of my job in the garden was planting the seeds. I would sow the seeds and Daddy would come behind me with the plow and cover them. I liked to walk behind Daddy when he was planting. Every step he took left an impression. I would try to make my short legs match his stride(大步)and put my tiny feet in his footprints.
    One of my gardening tasks was finding worms. We didn’t use a lot of pesticides so we often had worms. Some worms were harder to find because sometimes they would get on the bottom side of the leaves and have a similar color to that of the plant. I had to look very closely for them.
    Next came the harvest. That was my mum’s busiest time. There were tomatoes, peas, corn and beans that all had to be washed and “put up” for the winter.
    We would sit out in the yard late in the evening when air was cooler until midnight. I would sit and attentively listen to my mum and daddy to tell stories about their past. I loved those times because they created the most precious memories of all for me.
    We may not have had too many material possessions, but we had a lot of love. I think our working together as a family to put food on the table helped to strengthen out ties to each other and kept us close.
    56. What did the author like to do as a child in the garden?
    A. Put up tomatoes, peas, corn and beans for the winter.
    B. Follow his father’s footsteps.
    C. Plow and cover the seeds.
    D. Listen to his parents to tell stories.
    57.The underlined word “Pesticides” (in Paragraph 4) most probably means “things that _______”.
    A. can make plants grow more quickly    
    B. can affect the growth of plants
    C. kill worms                        
    D. benefit worms
    58. What does the author think of his childhood?
    A. Poor and miserable.                                        B. Rich and fruitful.
    C. Sad and unforgettable.                                   D. Hard but precious.
    59. What does the author intend to tell us?
    A. Learning to help parents is very important.
    B. Family members’ working together is precious.
    C. Staying in a garden is helpful to one’s development.
    D. A person should be hard-working from childhood.
