    When I was a child, I was shocked at the idea that my sisters could be my best friends. Now, I wouldn’t have it any other way. At the time, the idea of my tow sisters being my closest friends seemed strange to me. we fought all the time over toys, food, attention, what to watch on television-you name it, we quarreled about it at some point. How could my sisters be my best friends? They weren’t the same age as I. we all had our own friends in school.
    My mother never let the three of us forget that sisters are lifelong friends. Her wish like most parents’ was to give us something that she never had. Growing up as an only child, she longed for siblings. When she gave birth to three daughters, the fulfillment of her dream had only just begun. She had given each of us a gift and she wanted to make sure we did not take that gift for granted. She would frequently tell us how lucky we were. But there were others, more subtle ways that she encouraged us to grow closer. She never showed favoritism to one daughter over the other-skating, shopping, swimming-so we developed common interests. And when we were teenagers, Mom always punished us equally, giving us yet another bonding（结合的）experience.
    We didn’t always get along beautifully and fought just like any other siblings. But somewhere in between Mom’s lectures, the family vacations and the shared memories, we realized that our mother was right. Today I share things with my sisters that I do with no one else. My sister Cindy and I ran the New York City Marathon together, side by side, even holding hands when we crossed the finish lien. When my sister Karen got married, I was her maid of honor. Cindy and I traveled through Europe together and even shared an apartment for two years. The three of us trust each other with our greatest secrets.
    It was twenty-three years ago that my mother first asked me who my two best friends were. Today she doesn’t have to. She already knows.
    72. As a child, the author was shocked at her mother's idea because________
    A. her sisters seemed strange to her
    B. her sisters didn't like to be her friends
    C. none of the girls had their own friends
    D. she and her sisters shares little in common
    73. The underline word "siblings" in the second paragraph means________
    A. sisters     B. parents    C. daughters   D. friends
    74. How did the author's mother encourage her three daughters to grow closer?
    A. She punished her daughter differently.
    B. She showed equal love to her daughters.
    C. She encouraged her daughters to do sports.
    D. She often took her daughters to many places.
    75.The best title of the passage could be _________.
    A. The Greatest Gift          B. Mother's Love
    C. Growing Experiences      D. Unforgettable Memories

    [1]Hi, I write this letter to you, my parents, to let you know what I’m thinking．

    Do your kids like plastic toys? Well, I guess it’s time for them to play with wooden toys.
    I have always liked kids’ wooden toys since I was five. I always ran along on the back of a hobby horse pretending to be a cowboy from the West when I was a little boy. Now I’m a dad and I still like buying these timeless natural wooden toys. They will never be out of style. My daughter has a child’s rocking horse, and my two sons have wooden trains and cars. The great thing about this type of toys is that they will last generations if they are treated kindly. Even if they break, most of the time they can be repaired using spare parts bought from wooden-toy makers, and if the part is not too complicated(复杂的), you yourself can make the part from a piece of wood.
    What if they do break and can’t be repaired? Well, at least they can be dealt with without having any bad effects on the environment. They can be turned into wood chippings and used for pathways in the country or play areas for kids. Even if the wooden toy is buried as rubbish, which is very rare these days, it will not harm the soil or the environment.
    I like all types of wooden toys. There is such a wide variety of wooden toys today and the choice is getting bigger day by day. As an alternative(替代品) to plastic toys, wooden toys can’t be beaten. I’m sure in the near future wood will no doubt become the number one material for making toys, as plastic becomes more and more expensive because of rising oil prices and the environmental issues concerning plastic. Plastic toys might harm kids’ health, too.
    67. According to the author, wooden toys which can’t be repaired will _______.
    A. be taken back by the makers            B. need a lot of money to deal with
    C. not harm the environment              D. be collected by collectors
    68. From the last paragraph, we can learn that _______.
    A. plastic will be used up sooner or later
    B. plastic toys will not be allowed to be sold very soon
    C. wooden toys will become more popular in the future
    D. wooden toys will become more and more expensive
    69. Which of the following is NOT the reason why plastic toys will be less popular in the future?
    A. That plastic has bad effects on the environment.
    B. That plastic toys might harm the health of children.
    C. That plastic toys offer children few choices.
    D. That oil prices are getting higher than before.
    70. We can infer that this passage is written to _______.
    A. tell us the disadvantages of plastic toys   
    B. advise parents to buy wooden toys instead of plastic ones
    C. tell us how much the author and his children like wooden toys
    D. advise toy makers to make wooden toys rather than plastic ones

    With the theme "Cherishing the earth's resources, transforming the mode of development and living a low-carbon lifestyle," China's Ministry of Land and Resources held a ceremony this Thursday to mark the 41st World Earth Day, aims to generate new ideas of resource-saving, especially among the younger generation. In fact, Chinese young urbanities are turning to the seemingly trendy low-carbon lifestyle.
    But for the country as a whole to achieve a low-carbon economy, it could mean ordinary people paying more for electricity, water, gas or simply every purchase. Of necessity, a low-carbon economy would be the basis of China's economic growth, yet it comes with a high price tag. Everybody longs for fresh air, clean water and healthy surroundings. But, who is going to pay for that?
    For those who are still working hard for the basic necessities of life, sharing the cost of a greener environment can be taxing. For those who are already victimized by environmental pollution, additional expenditure for saving the environment is hard to bear. Behind all the lofty goals and loaded phrases of climate change negotiations, in everyday terms, the Chinese want to know whether companies will make them pay the cost of saving energy or whether government would come up with new levies.
    They have reasons to worry. The recent hike in the charges of utilities, such as natural gas, water and electricity, have led to widespread public grievance(抱怨,牢骚), for the increases were imposed without proper public hearing. Besides the practice of monopoly State-owned enterprises raising prices at will does not seem to bode well for a low-carbon economy.
    The government has a responsibility to strengthen regulation of utility charges and make the pricing mechanism more transparent. In the age of the low-carbon economy, the Chinese government needs to strike a new balance between public welfare and business competitiveness.
    How far the initiatives toward a low-carbon economy succeed depends on whether they truly benefit ordinary people and is accepted by them. The majority cannot sacrifice their life to build a greener world for the few.
    64.The author probably agrees to call on ____________.
    A. more and more citizens to devote themselves to the “Low-carbon economy” for the sake of
    our earth immediately
    B. the rich to generally pay for the bill, which aims at saving our planet.
    C. our government to take proper measures to make the “Low-carbon economy” benefit more
    people
    D. all the big enterprises to reduce their prices to build a greener world
    65. According to the passage, which of the following statements is NOT TRUE?
    A. Some people can’t afford their everyday expenses, let alone pay for a better environment.
    B. Putting forward the “Low-carbon economy” costs much.
    C. The balance between public welfare and business competitiveness in China now is not that
    good for the “Low-carbon economy”.
    D. Now that it’s hard for us to make the “Low-carbon economy” into practice, our government
    should put it to an end.
    66. The “Low-carbon economy” __________.
    A. is beneficial only to the rich people
    B. has led to widespread public grievance
    C. can be realized when pigs fly in the sky
    D. cannot be called success before it has been fully considered
    67. What’s the best title of the passage?
    A. China reaches out for younger generation to promote low-carbon lifestyle.
    B. Low-carbon economy, acceptable or not?
    C. Who will get the most benefit from the Low-carbon economy?
    D. Put forward the new policy and save the world.

    第二节根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Every year more people recognize that it is wrong to kill wildlife for “sport”. Progress in this direction is slow because shooting is not a sport for watching and only those few who take part in it realize the cruelty and destruction.
    The number of gunners, however, grows rapidly.  67 They are subjected to advertisements of gun producers who describe shooting as good for their health and carrying gun as a way of putting redder blood in the veins(血管).  68 In school they view motion pictures which are supposedly meant to teach them how to deal with arms safely but which are actually designed to stimulate a desire to own a gun.
    Wildlife is disappearing because of shooting and the loss of wildland habitat(栖息地). Habitat loss will continue with our increasing population, but can we slow the loss of wildlife caused by shooting? 69
           70  Although most people do not shoot, they seem to forgive shooting for sport because they know little or nothing about it. The only answer, then, is to bring the truth about sport shooting to the great majority of people.
    Now, it is time to realize that animals have the same right to live as we do and that there is nothing fair or right about a person with a gun shooting the harmless and beautiful creatures. The gunners like to describe what they do as character-building, but we know that to wound an animal and watch it go through the suffering of dying can make nobody happy.  71 
    A．There doesn’t seem to be any chance if the serious condition of our wildlife is not improved.
    B．They are persuaded by gunner magazines with stories honoring the chase and the kill.
    C．If, as they would have you believe, carrying guns and killing improve human character, then perhaps we should encourage war.
    D．Children who are too young to develop proper judgments through independent thought are led a long way away by their parents who have guns.
    E. The films children watch at school actually encourage them to have guns of their own.
    F. Wildlife belongs to everyone instead of the gunners alone.
    G. Most people do not seem to be against hunting because it helps to build human character.

    Michelle Obama is the first lady of American fashion, appearing on the cover of the March issue of Vogue.
    Every first lady since Lou Hoover—except Bess Truman—has been appeared in the high-fashion magazine, but Mrs. Obama is only the second to appear on the cover. She appears wearing a silk dress by Jason Wu.
    Vogue’s editor Andre Leon Tally recalled his interviews with Mrs. Obama ahead of US president Barack Obama’s swearing-in ceremony（就职典礼）. “One of the best experiences of my life .” “She is so easily reached, natural and normal.” he said.
    Mrs. Obama described her role as “Mom in chief” to 10-year-old Malia and 7-year-old Sasha. “I’m going to try to take them to school every morning, as much as I can,” she said. “But there’s also a measure of freedom. And clearly there will be time I won’t be able to drop them off at all. I like to appear in my kids’ school. I want to know the teachers; I want to know the other parents.”
    Being in Vogue, though, the chat finally turns to clothes. “I’m not going to pretend that I don’t care about it,” she said. “But I also have to be very practical. Someone will always not like what you wear---people just have different tastes. ”
    Most cover models have their clothes chosen for them by Vogue, or at least editors work as advisers. Not this time. “She doesn’t need any help. She loves fashion and knows what works for her,” Talley said. “She has never had a talk with me about, ‘What do you think?’ or ‘How does this like?’ And I’m glad for that.”
    45. From the underlined sentence in Paragraph 2 we know____.
    A. every first lady has appeared on the cover of Vogue
    B. only Bess Truman has appeared on the cover of Vogue
    C. only two first ladies have appeared on the cover of Vogue
    D. only Mrs. Obama has appeared on the cover of Vogue
    46. From the forth paragraph we know Mrs. Obama ____.
    A. loves their daughters very much
    B. likes to do housework very much
    C. likes to do all for her husband
    D. has nothing to do after daughters go to school
    47. From the last paragraph we know Mrs. Obama ____.
    A. is a woman of kindness
    B. has her own sense of beauty and idea
    C. herself is a clothes designer and model
    D. doesn’t like to be watched changing clothes
    48. Which of the following is the best title?
    A. First ladies of Vogue Cover Model
    B. First Lady Michelle Obama Read Vogue Too
    C. First Ladies Like to be Vogue Cover Model
    D. First Lady Michelle Obama Is Vogue Cover Model
