Paul Lucas can often be seen walking around the city of San Francisco. Sometimes people are surprised to see him walking 【小题1】 any shoes or socks, 【小题2】 Lucas doesn’t mind at all. 【小题3】likes to walk barefoot, and so do 640 other members of Dirty Sole Society, the club that Lucas 【小题4】 (start) years ago. Lucas’ idea for this is to encourage others to live 【小题5】 (free) --- free of shoes.
According to Lucas, the barefoot life has many advantages. 【小题6】 most important is simply that it feels good. He also says 【小题7】 walking barefoot allows you to experience the world directly by touching it with your feet. 【小题8】 addition, the feet do not smell so much because they stay dry, 【小题9】 (make) it hard for bacteria to grow. And, of course, walking barefoot keeps your feet in good shape, so it’s actually 【小题10】 (healthy) than wearing shoes.
【小题1】without
【小题2】but/which
【小题3】He
【小题4】started
【小题5】freely
【小题6】The
【小题7】that
【小题8】In
【小题9】making
【小题10】healthier
解析试题分析：本文叙述了Paul Lucas成立了Dirty Sole Society俱乐部，参加俱乐部的人是都光脚走路，文中给出了他们认为光脚走路的好处。他们认为光脚走路对脚是有好处的。
【小题1】考查介词及上下文的呼应。有时人们感觉很惊奇看见他不穿鞋在街上走路。根据walk barefoot光着脚走路，故用 without.
【小题2】考查连词及上下文的呼应。光脚走路，但是他不介意，故用but；如果用which，后面它引导的就是非限制性定语从句。他并不介意光脚走路。
【小题3】考查代词及上下文的呼应。他喜欢光脚走路。根据上文可知这里指Lucas ，故用he.
【小题4】考查动词及上下文的呼应。Lucas在几年前开办的俱乐部。根据时间状语years ago 可知应该用一般过去式started.
【小题5】考查副词及上下文的呼应。Lucas的想法是鼓励其他的人自由地生活。这里用副词freely来修饰动词live.
【小题6】考查冠词及上下文的呼应。最重要的是光脚走路感觉很好。因为形容词最高级的前面应该用定冠词来修饰，故用the.
【小题7】考查连词及上下文的呼应。他也说光脚走路允许你用脚直接感受世界。这里是that引导的宾语从句。
【小题8】考查固定短语及上下文的呼应。另外没有脚很大的味，因为脚能保持干燥。in addition另外，而且；是固定短语。
【小题9】考查非谓语动词及上下文的呼应。另外没有脚很大的味，因为脚能保持干燥，使脚上的细菌很难生存。这里是非谓语动词，make与逻辑主语之间是主动关系，故用making.
【小题10】考查形容词及上下文的呼应。光脚走路也能保持脚的好的脚形，因此比穿着鞋要健康的多。因为后有比较连词than 可知这里应该用比较级healthier.

Directions: Read the following passage, Answer the questions according to the
information given in the passage.
Secret Santas
On Christmas morning, Linda wakes up, and tries to imagine the wide-eyed surprise of children in another household as they unwrap the presents she carefully chose for them. Linda has never met the children, but that’s all part of the joy of giving as secret Santas, she says.
"It's an amazing feeling to buy gifts on an anonymous (匿名的) basis," says Linda.
"It brings a whole new meaning to the holidays."
Linda and Tony are an American couple living in Toronto, Canada, and Linda did charitable work as a member of the American Women's Club of Toronto. As the name suggests, members are U.S. citizens living in Toronto, who join together for fellowship and community service.
To find her "adopted" family, Linda goes to the local schools and requests a wish list for a family that's struggling to survive. Last year she helped a single mother with three children. The mother works as a cleaning lady in a nursing home.
"The list is always heartbreaking. They have an opportunity to ask for anything and do just the opposite, asking for basic clothes or simple toys," she says. "We always buy the kids a new winter coat, hats, and gloves." She also buys gifts for the parents.
Last year Linda asked the mother for a second wish list--one that didn't include the basics. "Every child should have a Christmas that sticks with them for a lifetime." She purchased iPods for the two older children and a video game system for the youngest."I have learned a very valuable lesson in all of this," says Linda. "Pay attention to what's going on in your own backyard--no matter where you live."
The joy of giving as secret Santas is much sweeter when the gift is anonymous.
【小题1】What reaction does Linda imagine the children will have?
(No more than 5 words) (2 marks)
【小题2】Why did Linda join the American Women's Club of Toronto?
(No more than 10 words) (2 marks)
【小题3】Why did Linda ask for a second wish list?
(No more than 15 words) (3 marks)
【小题4】What kind of people does "secret Santas" in the passage refer to?
(No more than 12 words) (3 marks)

London - Police are monitoring social networking sites popular with teenagers such as Bebo, Facebook and MySpace after claims that they are being used to organize mass brawls (对骂).
Kent Police believe that teenagers have been using the Internet to arrange “fight club” contests watched by up to 100 spectators in a public park.
At least six organized fights have taken place in Brenchley Gardens in Maidstone, Kent, according to one teenage blogger. (4) During one of the fights a 14-year-old boy was arrested for carrying a hunting knife. Kent Police have now ordered specialist officers to monitor sites such as Bebo.
Chief Inspector Ian Hall said: “(5) We are aware of attempts to organize fights using technology such as websites and mobile phones. Pupils from some schools in the area may be involved in this type of anti-social behavior and we are working with schools to eradicate (根除) the problem.”
According to one blogger the fights usually take place on Saturday nights. The contests are named after the Hollywood film Fight Club starring Edward Norton and Brad Pitt. The central characters fight for the adrenaline rush but the film has an ironic twist (歪曲) apparently lost on some of its audience.
This week police in Macclesfield, Cheshire, arrested six teenagers on suspicion of public order offences after an investigation into a series of assaults (袭击). The youths, aged 16 and 17, were released on police bail (保释). The officers discovered that attacks had been discussed and possibly even prearranged using the Bebo websites.
In Collumpton, Devon, last weekend police intercepted (阻止) 30 pupils going to a mass brawl carrying metal bars, pieces of wood and chain.
Questions 1—3： Answer the following questions briefly.
【小题1】What is the main idea of the passage?
【小题2】What does the underlined word “monitoring” mean?
【小题3】Please find a sentence in the passage which can replace the following one.
It is likely that the teenagers had used the Bebo websites to discuss and even plan the attack.
Questions 4—5: Translate the underlined sentences in the passage into Chinese.

Educating girls quite possibly harvests a higher rate of benefit than any other investment available in the developing world. Women’s education may be an unusual field for economists， but increasing women’s contribution to development is actually as much an economic as a social issue. And economics， with its focus on rewards， provides an explanation for why so many girls are deprived of(剥夺)an education.
Parents in low-income countries fail to invest in their daughters because they do not expect them to make an economic contribution to the family： girls grow up only to marry into somebody else’s family and bear children. Girls are thus seen as less valuable than boys and are kept at home to do housework while their brothers are sent to school — the predict becomes self-ffulfilling， trapping women in a vicious circle (恶性循环) of neglect.
An educated mother， on the other hand， has greater earning abilities outside the home and faces an entirely different set of choices. She is likely to have fewer but healthier children and can insist on the development of all her children， ensuring that her daughters and sons are given fair chances. The education of her daughters then makes it much more likely that the next generation of girls， as well as of boys， will be educated and healthy. The vicious circle is thus transformed into a virtuous circle(良性循环).
Few will argue that educating women has great social benefits. But it has enormous economic advantages as well. Most obviously， there is the direct effect of education on the wages of female workers. Wages rise by 10 to 20 per cent for each additional year of schooling. Such big returns are impressive by the standard of other available investments， but they are just the beginning. Educating women also has a significant impact on health practices， including family planning.
Topic： The significance of 【小题1】 in developing countries
| Viewpoint | Educating girls is more 【小题2】 than any other investment. | |

| Practices | ●There is 【小题5】 investment in daughters. ●Girls are made to stay at home， 【小题6】 housework. | Girls and boys are sure to have 【小题7】 . |
| Consequences | A vicious circle | 【小题8】 |
| 【小题9】 | Educating girls contributes to social benefits， 【小题10】 and health practices， including family planning. Educating girls in developing countries is important and rewarding. | |

请阅读下面短文,并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填入一个最恰当的单词。
注意: 请将答案写在答题卡上相应题号的横线上。 每个空格只填一个单词。
The expression, “everybody’s doing it,” is very much at the center of the concept of peer pressure. It is a strong influence of a group, especially of children, on members of that group to behave as everybody else does. It can be positive or negative. Most people experience it in some way during their lives.
People are social creatures by nature, and so it is hardly surprising that part of their self-respect comes from the approval of others. This instinct (天性) is why the approval of peers, or the fear of disapproval, is such a powerful force in many people’s lives. It is the same instinct that drives people to dress one way at home and another way at work, or to answer “fine” when a stranger asks “how are you?” even if it is not necessarily true. There is a practical aspect to this: it helps society to function efficiently, and encourages a general level of self-discipline that simplifies day-to-day interaction.
For certain individuals, seeking social acceptance is so important that it becomes like an addiction; in order to satisfy the desire, they may go so far as to abandon their sense of right and wrong. Teens and young adults may feel forced to use drugs, or join gangs that encourage criminal behavior. Mature adults may sometimes feel pressured to cover up illegal activity at the company where they work, or end up in debt because they are unable to hold back the desire to buy a house or car that they can’t afford in an effort to “keep up with the Joneses.”
However, peer pressure is not always negative. A student whose friends are good at academics may be urged to study harder and get good grades. Players on a sports team may feel driven to play harder in order to help the team win. This type of influence can also get a friend off drugs, or to help an adult take up a good habit or drop a bad one. Study groups and class projects are examples of positive peer groups that encourage people to better themselves.
Schools try to teach kids about the dangers of negative peer pressure. They teach kids to stand up and be themselves, and encourage them to politely decline to do things that they believe are wrong. Similarly, it can be helpful to encourage children to greet the beneficial influence of positive peer groups.
