45.C(解析:cost“要价,花费”符合句意。)
46.B(解析:as usual“像往常一样”;as well“也”;as yet“到现在为止”;as a whole“总的来说”。所以依据句意,该空应选B。)
47.D(解析:根据后面的语境,不难知道“我”给“the boy”的是一本贵的书。)
48.C(解析:根据前面“the boy”介绍的处境,所以“我”认为“the boy”“可能”卖不起
这么贵的书。)
49.B(解析:hand in“交上”;hand over“交给”;hand down“留传”;hand out“分发”。所以依据语境,该空应选B。)
50.A(解析:“对某人的祝福”要用动词wish。“wish sB.good luck”意思是“祝某人好运”。)
51.C(解析:依据该篇短文的中心,该空应选C。“钱”是重要的,买书或是跟朋友闲逛都
需要钱。)

During the years of depression(萧条), food and money were very hard to find and people had to trade things with each other.  
One day I was   36   some potatoes from Mr Miller. I noticed a small poor boy hungrily   37   a full basket of   38   green peas. Then I was  39   to see that Mr Miller sold the boy a bag of peas   for just a marble (弹球).
Mrs Miller, who had been standing nearby,    40   and told me that Mr Miller loved to  trade with the three boys in the village for peas, tomatoes, and other things  41   he didn’t really need any marbles. I left the stand, smiling to myself,   42   by this man.
Several years went by. One day I learned that Mr Miller had died. I took part in the funeral(葬礼),  43   three young men . They came over to Mrs Miller, hugged her, kissed her on the cheek, spoke with her and moved on,   44   their eyes.
Our 45   came to meet Mrs Miller. I mentioned 46   she had told me about the 47 . She told me,“Those three young men above were the boys I told you about. They just told me   48  they appreciated the things Jim‘traded’with them. Now, at last, they came to pay their debt.”  
“We’ve 49   had a great deal of the wealth in this world,” she added, “but right now, Jim would consider himself to be the  50   man.”
Then she gently lifted the   51   fingers of her husband. Resting underneath were three red marbles.
At that time I realized that we would not be  52    by our words, but by our kind  53  . It is said that it takes a minute to find a    54  person, an hour to appreciate him, a day to love him, but an entire life to  55   him.

  Directions: Read the following passage. Answer the questions according to the information given in the passage and required words limit. Write your answers on your answer sheet.
Few places have as much ancient history and modern knowledge to offer to students as Egypt. In addition to being the site of many of the world’s greatest wonders, Egypt also hosts two major religious institutions. Al-Azhar University is one of the oldest Islamic institutions for higher studies. The head of Al-Azhar is traditionally regarded as the ruler of Sunni Muslims all over the world.
Al-Azhar University had long been known as the most archaic university in the world until 2004, when archaeologists unearthed the site of what was believed to be the first ever ivory tower in the world in the northern seaside city of Alexandria.
What the archaeological team found were 13 lecture halls that could accommodate up to 5,000 students each. These lecture halls are believed to be the University of Alexandria, home of famous Greek scholars like Archimedes and Euclid during the ancient city’s golden era.
This discovery shows that Egypt was a centre for education and learning in the early world civilizations. Its tradition of scholarship was evident even from the Pharaonic Age(法老时代), which boasted engineering wonders such as the pyramids as well as the scientific wonder of mummies, all of which still exist tod ay.
During the Islamic Age, Egypt became the regional academic centre for Islamic study and Arabic language and literature. Her popularity with scholars from all over the world grew with the establishment of Al-Azhar University in Cairo, in 975.
Today, it remains a popular destination for international scholars, especially those from the Arab world, Africa, Asia and Europe, but like most modern Egyptian universities, Al-Azhar has been equipped with the latest technologies to cope with new demands from the modern world, and is an ideal place for students from all over the world.
Find in the passage a word closest in meaning to the underlined word “ archaic” .(one word)
Why has Al-Azhar been equipped with the latest technologies?(no more than 9 word)
What is the passage mainly about ?(no more than 6 word)
What is the writer’s purpose of writing this passage?(no more than 9 word)

It is true that good writers rewrite and rewrite and then rewrite some more. But in order to work up the desire to rewrite, it is important to learn to like what you write at the early stage.  
I am surprised at the number of famous writers I know who say that they so dislike reading their own writing later that they even hate to look over the publishers’ opinions. One reason we may dislike reading our own work is that we’re often disappointed that the rich ideas in our minds seem very thin and plain when first written down. Jerry Fodor and Steven Pinker suggest that this fact may be a result of how our minds work. .  
Different from popular belief ,we do not usually think in the works and sentences of ordinary language but in symbols for ideas (known as “mentalese”), and writing our ideas down is an act of translation from that symbolic language . But while mentalese contains our  thoughts in the form of a complex tapestry (织锦),writing can only be composed one thread at a time . Therefore it should not be surprising that our first attempt at expressing ideas should look so simple. It is only by repeatedly rewriting that we produces new threads and connect them to get closer to the ideas formed in our minds.  
When people write as if some strict critics (批评家) are looking over their shoulder , they are so worried about what this critic might say that they get stuck before they even start. Peter Elbow makes an excellent suggestion to deal with this problem. When writing we should have two different minds. At the first stage, we should see every idea, as well as the words we use to express it ,as wonderful and worth putting down . It is only during rewrites that we should examine what we excitedly wrote in the first stage and check for weaknesses.  
小题1:What do we learn from the text about those famous writers? 
A.They often regret writing poor works
B.Some of them write surprisingly much.
C.Many of them hate reading their own works
D.They are happy to review the publishers’ opinions.
小题2:What do people generally believe about the way human minds work? 
A.People think in words and sentences.
B.Human ideas are translated into symbols
C.People think by connecting threads of ideas.
D.Human thoughts are expressed through pictures.
小题3:What can we conclude from the text? 
A.Most people believe we think in symbols.
B.Loving our own writing is scientifically reasonable.
C.The writers and critics can never reach an agreement.
D.Thinking and writing are different stages of mind at work.

In 1999, 11-year-old Kevin Stephan was a bat boy for his younger brother's Little League team in Lancaster, New York. It was an early evening in late July. The sun shone at an angle  across the field. The game unfolding in baseball time. Kevin was standing on the grass away from the plate, where another youngster was warming up. Swinging his bat back and forth, giving it all the power an elementary school kid could gather. The boy brought the bat back hard and hit Kevin square in the chest.
His heart stopped.
When Kevin fell to the ground, the mother of one of the players rushed out of the stands to his aid. Penny Brown hadn't planned to be there that day, but at the last minute, her shift at the hospital had been changed, and she was given the night off. Penny bent over the unconscious boy, his face already starting to turn blue, and administered CPR, breathing into his mouth and administering chest press.
And he came back.
It was a good thing, for a good kid. Kevin wasn't just a volunteer for his brother's baseball team --- he was a Boy Scout, one who went on to achieve Scouting's highest rank, Eagle. He became a volunteer junior firefighter, learning some of the emergency first-aid techniques that had saved his life. He studied hard in school and was saving money for college by working as a dishwasher in a local restaurant. He liked the people, but the work could be hard and pretty routine. Until the afternoon of January 27, 2006.
Kevin, now 17, was working in the kitchen when he heard people screaming, customers in confusion, employees rushing toward a table. He hustled into the main room and saw a woman there, her face turning blue, her hands at her throat. She was choking. Quickly Kevin stepped behind her, wrapped his arms around her and clasped his hands. Then, using skills he'd first learned in Scouts, he pulled suddenly inward and up, once, twice, administering the Heimlich maneuver. The food that was trapped in the woman's throat was freed. The color began to return to her face.
"The food was stuck. I couldn't breathe," she said. She thought she was dying. "I was very frightened.”
Guess who the woman was ? Penny Brown
56. According to the passage, we can learn about Kevin that           .
A. In 1999. Kevin was hit by a bat unexpectedly when he was doing baseball warming up.
B His heart disease overtook him.
C. He was hit square in the chest watching his younger brother’s team.
D. He swung his bat too fiercely and hurt himself.
57. Why was Penny Brown right at the accident spot when Kevin was hit?
A. Because she was interested in baseball.
B. Because she had had her turn to work changed.
C. Because her son was playing that evening.
D. Because she was not supposed to be at work at the hospital.
58. What does the underlined word “it ” in Paragragh5 refer to?
A. That Kevin was a bat boy.
B. That Kevin got injured.
C. That Kevin was a Boy Scout.
D. That Kevin was successfully saved.
59. Which of the following is not true according to the text?
A. The Heimlich maneuver is an effective way to help those who choke.
B.CPR can be used to treat one who has no heartbeat.
C. Kevin learned some of the emergency first-aid techniques in Scout.
D. Penny Brown was not Kevin’s mother.
60. Which one is the best title of the passage?.
A. miracles take place every day.
B. acts of kindness will deserve another good deed.
C. we should learn first aid in case of emergency.
D. we should be kind to those who ever helped us.
