I made up my mind to drive to South Carolina to meet my friends in my used car. Though I had only been there once 36 and did not know the 37 very well, I was on the 38 after I had made some inquiries (询问).
At Ashvelle, there was a crossroad where I could go on along the main road or I could take a short cut. The short cut was to 39 several hills and was dangerous, I hesitated (犹豫)for a little while and then chose the main road, for I wanted to be 40 .
Something strange happened after I drove a long 41 and found it was not the correct road that I wanted to 42 , but the hilly road I decided to avoid. I realized that it was at the 43 that I had made the 44 mistake. “What shall I do?” I asked myself. If I went back to take that road again, it would be very late by the time I got to Columbia. Thinking it 45 , I decided to go on. “If 46 people can go along this road, why can’t I?” I 47 myself
The short cut, to my surprise ,was not that 48 . In fact, it was only a very peaceful country road, 49 up and down two low 50 .There was 51 traffic. On both sides of the road, you could see trees, wild flowers, and 52 with cows and horses. My fear was 53 with the wind. Listening to the beautiful country music over my car stereo (立体声), I drove on and 54 the scenery which was so quiet and so natural. Even my used car forgot to give me 55 . It was just in this light heartedness that I arrived at my destination. My friends, after they heard what had happened to me, all said it sounded like an adventure.

Part Four: Writing
Section A (10 points)
Directions: Read the following passage. Complete the diagram by using the information for the passage.
The art of growing dwarf （short） trees， or “bonsai” as their Japanese planters call them， is increasing in popularity in the United States. Growing bonsai can make a fascinating hobby for anyone who enjoys plants and creating beautiful effects with them. However， how can we meet the goal of making such a kind of art？ This maybe is the problem for many of us.
There are， in fact， four important guidelines to follow in growing bonsai. First， one must be careful in choosing the type of tree. Not all species of trees can be made into bonsai， since the growing conditions are unusual.
Second， one must be careful in choosing the size of the container the bonsai will be in. This is necessary because the major growth of bonsai is kept confined to the tree’s trunk and leaves， not its root system.
Another thing the bonsai-grower must do is to trim （修整） the roots and branches of the tree periodically （定期地）。 Unless this is done， the plants will look unnatural. The Japanese ideal for bonsai is not to have the proper proportions and will have trees which are just like normal trees in everything， but in small size.
The last thing one must do is to be careful to keep the miniature （small） tree well-watered， or it will die.
As one can see from above， the art of bonsai-growing is one which requires a certain amount of time and effort. The satisfactions that growing bonsai brings can be great， however. Imagine having such a tree in your living room and passing it down through several generations of your family. That is exactly what bonsai-growing is all about： establishing a tradition of beauty which lasts for years and years and is a symbol of the beauties of the natural world.
Title： 71. ___________

In much society, there is often greater acceptance of light skin than dark skin; Light skin may be seen as a mark of beauty, intelligence and success. These beliefs can lead to social pressures even within the same group, if some members are darker than others.
The result is that skin lightening has become very common across Africa, Asia and other areas of the world and more people with dark skin are using skin-lighting products, even if it means they may face health risks. They believe that having whiter skin will improve the quality of their lives. Many people think they will have a better family. Or they want to look like what their society generally considers beautiful.
Some beauty care（美容） products and soaps contain chemicals that make skin lighter. However, some of the chemicals are extremely dangerous.

Usually the person will use more of the product in an effort to correct the problem, which just makes things even worse. Doctor Ly says some chemicals are so dangerous that they may lead to blackened fingernails, infections(感染) and serious skin damage.
And these are not the only problems. Experts say some people who change their skin color suffer emotional damage. They feel regretful and sad. They feel that instead of risking their health, they should have learned to live and accept their skin color as it was.

Younger adults who get either little sleep or a lot of it may see a greater expansion in their waistlines（腰围）over time, a study published suggests. Researchers found that among black and Hispanic adults younger than 40, those who typically slept for five hours or less each night had a greater accumulation of belly fat over the next five years, versus

（相比于） those who averaged six or seven hours. Those who slept eight hours or more in bed each night also showed a bigger fat gain - but it was less obvious than that seen in "short sleepers."
The study, reported in the Journal Sleep, does not prove that too little or too much sleep directly leads to excess fat gain. But the findings support and extend those of other studies linking sleep duration - particularly a lack of sleep - to weight gain and even to higher risks of diabetes(糖尿病) and heart disease. Among participants younger than 40, the study found, those who said they slept for five hours or less each night gained more belly fat than those who averaged six or seven hours of sleep. On average, short sleepers showed a 32 percent gain in visceral（内脏的）fat, versus a 13 percent gain among those who slept six or seven hours per night, and a 22 percent increase among men and women who got at least eight hours of sleep each night. A similar pattern was seen with superficial abdominal（腹部）fat.
The findings, according to lead researcher Dr. Kristen G. Hairston, support the belief that sleep habits affect weight and health in general. "Sleep is an important part of your overall health - not just in whether you're tired during the day," she said.
There may be indirect effects; people who get too little sleep may be too tired during the day to exercise, while those who spend a lot of time in bed may spend less time being active, relative to people who sleep fewer hours. Research also suggests that sleep loss alters people's levels of appetite-regulating hormones（荷尔蒙）- which could, in theory, cause them to overeat. Depression, which often affects people's sleep and has been linked to weight gain, could also be a factor, Hairston noted.
小题1:Who may have the higher risk of being fat over the next five years?

A．Jack, a Hispanic man, aged 35, sleeps for 3 hours every night.

B．Candy, a black woman, aged 41, sleeps for about 5 hours every night.

C．Bob, an American, aged 50, sleeps for more than 12 hours every day.

D．John, a student in Africa, sleeps for more than 6 hours every week.

小题2:What does the study, reported in the Journal Sleep find?

A．Too little or too much sleep directly gives rise to the fat gain.

B．People are subject to heart disease due to the lack of sleep.

C．It is admitted that sleep plays an important part in our health.

D．Researchers find a longer sleep time is better for our health.

小题3:What does the lead researcher Dr. Kristen G. Hairston agree with?

A．People should do some exercise in their daily life.

B．There is a close link between sleep habits and health.

C．More nutrition is greatly needed when we lack sleep.

D．More and more people tend to sleep less than before.

小题4:What can we infer from the passage?

A．Younger adults getting little or much sleep may become fat.

B．We are supposed to do exercise as much as possible to ke

ep fit.

C．We should keep a good sleep habit to improve our health.

D．We have to spare no efforts to drive depression away.

小题5:What’s the best title of the passage?

A．Sleep Habits Linked to Fat Gain in Younger Adults.

B．Doing Exercise Is the Best Way to Keep Fit.

C．Our Waistlines Can Be Driven Away Right Now.

D．Diabetes No Longer bother all of Young People.

Many college-bound freshmen are worrying about more than just who their roommates will be this fall. They may also be nervous about the well-known fact that they are likely to gain weight this school year. Or will they? While many of us remember the extra weight that showed up right around the start of our college careers, we are not always clear on how much weight we realize gained or why.
Many nutrition experts and psychologists think that it is the change in environment and the stress of a new beginning that cause the typical college freshmen to gain extra pounds. As students start a new stage of their lives, many eat to deal with the stress of change or loneliness. Often, college students are making meals or choosing foods independently for the first time in their lives. If they live in the college dormitory, they have a wide variety of foods to select from that may be higher in calories and fatter than the foods they consumed living at home. In addition, college social events usually center around food. I clearly remember sitting in my dorm cafeteria for two or three hours on a Saturday morning socializing with my new friends. Instead of eating only one meal, we would start with breakfast, eat throughout the duration of our socializing, and finish with lunch. Food also makes an appearance after late-night parties, as part of a school day, or simply to break the monotony(单调 ).
So will this year's typical freshmen really gain 15 pounds? According to a 2006 Tufts University study, students enrolling in college this fall will gain weight, but maybe not the assumed 15 pounds. Based on the students surveyed, the study found that men can expect to gain an average of 6 pounds and women an average of 4.5 pounds during the freshman year.
小题1:According to the passage, it is obvious that __________.

A．the foods the freshmen had at home may be healthier than those in the dorm cafeteria

B．to break the monotony, the students should start with breakfast, and finish with lunch

C．the students should eat to deal with the stress of change or loneliness in new situations

D．the boys may gain less pounds than the girls during the first year in the college

小题2: Nutrition experts and psychologists think that __________.

A．students should get used to the stress of change through foods they had at home

B．the new environment and the stress have something to do with the students' extra pounds

C．students should know in what way they gain so much weight

D．choosing foods independently can make people lose weight naturally

小题3:From the writer's experience, the writer thinks that ____________.

A．foods in the dorm cafeteria are all higher in calories and fatter

B．the best way to break the monotony is through breakfast, lunch and supper

C．students in college will gain an average of about 5.25 pounds every fall

D．social events in the college are usually celebrated around food

小题4:This passage is mainly about ______________.
A how and why the freshmen gain extra pounds
B. the experience of the freshmen in the college
C. the freshmen with trouble in a new environment
D. the views of the nutrition experts and psychologists about gaining weight

We keep reading that TV is bad for you. If this is true, how come the cur

rent generation of TV-addicted kids is much smarter than we are? In my home, the only people who can work the remote control are the children.
Perhaps TV does educate you. For example, you learn a useful medical fact: A person who has been shot always has time to speak an incomplete sentence before he dies. “The killer was…” (dies)
But I guess the biggest things we learn from TV can be regarded as “Life Skills”. Bad things only happen on dark and stormy nights. Emotional breakdowns cause people to wander in the heavy rain without umbrellas. And contrary to what scientists say, the crack(霹雳) of lightning and the accompanying flash happen at exactly the same time, wherever you are.
I’ve even acquired useful geographical facts from science-fiction shows: Aliens speak English no matter which planet they come from.
Making use of what we learn from TV can improve our security. Consider these truths. If you are ever attacked by 20 bad guys, don’t worry about being outnumbered. The criminals will hang back and take turns to approach you in ones and twos just so you can conveniently defeat them all. Bad guys who are completely covered in black clothes always remove their black masks to reveal that they are in fact, aha, women.
TV also teaches us important information about escaping from danger. Watch and learn. (1) If anyone is running after you down a passage, you will find that boxes have been conveniently placed near all the walls you need to jump over. (2) If you are tall and handsome, you can run from any number of armed criminals, and every shot will miss you.
Be warned, however. If your name card says “henchman” (帮凶) and you are part of a group of plain-looking people trying to catch a handsome individual, a single shot will kill you. But don’t be anxious: TV also delivers useful information for bad guys. All cars are inflammable (易燃的) and have amazing shock absorbers that enable them to fly into the air and land without damage — except police cars.
TV even teaches us about TV. Whenever anyone turns on a TV, it shows a news flash about someone they know. They then turn the box off immediately after that news item.
小题1:By saying “A person who has been shot always has time to speak an incomplete sentence
before he dies” (Paragraph 2), the writer shows his________.

A．humor	B．sympathy
C．deep concern	D．medical knowledge

小题2:We can infer from Paragraph 3 that in the real world_______.

A．bad things cause people to break down in the ra

B．bad things never happen on dark and stormy nights

C．people with emotional problems like to walk in the rain without umbrellas

D．the crack of lightning and the accompanying flash don’t happen at the same time

小题3:On TV what usually happens when a person turns it on?

A．The news shown is always about someone the person knows.

B．The person always turns off the TV when it’s time for news.

C．The program shown is always about the importance of TV.

D．TV always shows news about famous people.

小题4:What’s the main idea of this passage?

A．Life skills can be learned from TV.

B．TV plays an important role in society.

C．Watching TV makes people more creative.

D．What happens in TV is very different from reality.

Cheating can happen in a lot of different ways. When people cheat, it’s not fair to other people, like the kids who studied for the test or who were the true winners of a game.
Many people like the action of cheating. It makes difficult things seem easy, like getting all the right answers on the test. But it doesn’t solve the problem of not knowing the material and it won’t help on the next test --- unless the person cheats again.
Some people lose respect for cheaters and think less of them. The cheaters themselves may feel bad because they know they are not really earning that good grade. And, if they get caught cheating, they will be in trouble at school, and maybe at home, too.
Some kids cheat because they’re busy or lazy and they want to get good grades without spending the time studying. Other kids might feel like they can’t pass the test without cheating. Even when there seems to be a “good reason” for cheating, cheating isn’t a good idea.
If you were sick or upset about something the night before and couldn’t study, it would be better to talk with the teacher about this. And if you don’t have enough time to study for a test because of swim practice, you need to talk with your parents about how to balance swimming and school. A kid who thinks cheating is the only way to pass a test needs to talk with the teacher and his or her parents so they can find some solutions together. Talking about these problems and working them out will feel better than cheating.（291 words）
小题1:Some students like cheating mainly because_________.

A．the material in the test is very difficult

B．they want to do better than the others

C．cheating can make hard things seem very easy

D．they have little time to study their lessons

小题2:We can learn from the passage______.

A．cheaters are often thought highly of

B．people show no respect for those who cheat

C．parents whose kids cheat are often in trouble

D．kids cheat in the test because of swim practice

小题3:In the passage those cheaters are advised to_______.

A．spend more time on school than on sports

B．find good solutions instead of cheating

C．try hard to be intelligent rather than lazy

D．ask their classmates for good methods of study

What is time? Is it a thing to be saved or spent or wasted, like money? Or is it something we have no control over, like the weather? Is time the same all over the world?
That's an easy question, you say. Wherever you go, a minute is 60 seconds, an hour is 60 minutes, a day is 24 hours, and so forth. But in America, time is more than that. Americans see time as a valuable resource. Maybe that's why they are fond of the expression, "Time is money."
Because Americans believe time is a limited resource, they try to conserve and manage it. People in the U.S. often attend seminars or read books on time management. It seems they all want to organize their time better. Professionals carry around pocket planners -- some in electronic form -- to keep track of appointments and deadlines. People do all they can to squeeze more time out of their time. The early American hero Benjamin Franklin expressed this view best: "Do you love life? Then do not waste time, for that is the stuff life is made of."
To Americans, punctuality is a way of showing respect for other people's time. Being more than 10 minutes late to an appointment usually calls for an apology and an explanation. People who are running late often call ahead to let others know of the delay. Of course, the less formal the situation is, the less important it is to be exactly on time. At informal get-togethers, for example, people often arrive as much as 30 minutes past the appointed time.
To outsiders, Americans seem tied to the clock. People in other cultures value relationships more than schedules. In these societies, people don't try to control time, but to experience it. Even Americans would admit that no one can master time. Time -- like money -- slips all too easily through our fingers. And time -- like the weather-- is very hard to predict. Nevertheless, time is one of life's most precious gifts. And unwrapping it is half the fun.
小题1:What’s the main topic of this passage?

A．What is time?

B．How to control time?

C．Make good use of time.

D．Time among Americans.

小题2:What’s the meaning of the underlined word “conserve”?

A．protect

B．develop

C．produce

D．assist

小题3:The sentence “Americans seem tied to the clock” probably means __________.

A．Americans often carry a clock with them.

B．Americans can not predict the time.

C．Americans can take control over time.

D．Americans often make full use of time.

小题4:We can safely draw a conclusion from this passage that _________________.

A．Americans have more time than others.

B．by using pocket planners, people can have more time.

C．for informal meeting, Americans often arrive 30 minutes earlier.

D．Americans often attend seminars, because they want to use time better.
