    Wings of Angel
    I used to hate myself because I wasn’t “normal”. Everyone else could play on the monkey bars and ride on a bicycle, but not   36  . I had a severe spinal cord disorder(脊髓病) and I knew I would always be much   37  than others.
    I hated going to school and I hated   38   at me. I hated seeing others smiling broadly and standing   39  and tall. And most of all, I hated looking in the   40  and seeing an ugly and hunchback(驼背).

    “Hi. Can I sit down?”
    I raised my head and there she was, with an irresistible smile on her round face.

    “Ants.”
    “What are they doing?”
    “No   44  .”
    “I bet they’re playing games and make friends. Don’t you think so?”
    That was how our   45  started and it didn’t stop. We talked about everything under the sun—the ants, the clouds, my little niche(处境)—until it was sunset.
    Then suddenly, you saw my   46  . She just stared.
    My heart   47  . What I feared most had happened and I knew for sure she would   48   me now.
    She stood up, pointed at my back and said, “I know why your back is hunched.”
    I closed my eyes like a criminal waiting to be   50  . I begged in my heart for her to   51  , but you just kept on going. “I know what you’ve got in there. Do you?”
    “No,” I answered   52  .
    She bent and whispered in my ears.
    “Your back is bunched because you’ve got a pair of wings from the angels.”
    I was   53  . I looked into your eyes and her   54  touched my heart. From that day on, I started to learn to   55  myself because I have the wings of an angel and a kind – hearted friend.

    Section D
    Directions: Read the passage carefully. Then answer the questions or complete the statements in the fewest possible words.
    In today’s world, the most successful companies are the ones who understand how important it is to make contacts around the world. However, doing business in different countries is very rarely simple. It is important to be aware of the local customs and traditions of the people you are dealing with, which is the best way to impress your hosts.
    One example that comes to mind is of a German company that recently tried to gain a new contract in South Korea. The German visitors arrived at the Korean company’s office early in the morning and spent the whole day in long meetings. By the evening, the Germans were so tired that they politely declined the Korean’s invitation to go out for dinner and drinks, since they wanted to return to their hotel and get some rest. The Germans did not understand that in South Korea business talks often continue into the evening. The Germans only came to realize that they offended their hosts after they had lost the contract.  
    In Europe or the USA, business is rarely discussed into the evening. However, it is important to be on time for a meeting. If you are late, your hosts may think you do not care. In fact, it is better to arrive at least ten minutes before the meeting starts. This way, you can show how keen you are to do business with them, and you will also have time to talk with your hosts before you sit down to discuss business.
    However, in many countries meetings may not start on time. There are a number of reasons for this, such as transport difficulties due to poor roads, unusual weather and the cost of cars. Sometimes the time of day is also important. In South America and many countries in southern Europe, people have a short sleep for a couple of hours after lunch. Therefore, if you try to arrange a meeting for the early afternoon, you may find that not many people will attend, or that you hosts will be in a bad mood.
    (Note: Answer the questions or complete the statements in NO MORE THAN TWELVE WORDS.)
    81. In Korea, what confuses many western businessmen is _______.
    _____________________________________________________________________________
    82. In the West, what does a businessman do if he wants to show a keen attitude to the business in
    a negotiation?
    _____________________________________________________________________________
    83. Where is it common for people to have a nap after lunch?
    _____________________________________________________________________________
    84. According to the passage, it can be concluded that _______ helps a company make good
    contacts in different countries.
    _____________________________________________________________________________

    Nearly thirty years ago, I went rock climbing for the first time with a group in New Mexico. It sounded exciting and  31  ! Anyone who has ever climbed knows that you can easily  32  where there is no place to go, or so. It seems you’re stuck. But    33  is not an option. You cannot just stand there and feel  34  for yourself. You cannot go back down, so you are  35  to become solution minded.
    I held on for dear life that day, on my first climb,   36  about three quarters of the way to the top. It seemed that there was no place to go, and  37  to put my hands or feet so that I could  38  upward. But after a few minutes had passed I realized that I had to do  39  . I began to look again for a(n)  40  . I then noticed a   41  sticking out, which I might be able to grab with my hands and  42  myself up to where I could have a small foothold. I called to the instructor at the top and asked him if that rock would hold my  43  if I pulled myself up. I can  44  remember his answer, “I don’t know. Why don’t you try it and see?”
    In life we many times feel “stuck”. We wonder how we got into the  45  that we are presently in. It is in those times that we need to be careful about how we define(定义)it. Have we failed,   46  is it just a setback?
    Setbacks, adversity(逆境), or being stuck is never an indication that you are a   47  unless you decide that those things define your life as a failure. For people looking for a(n)  48  to be a failure, there are always plenty to choose from. But if you want your life to be successful, setbacks, adversity and being stuck are   49  stepping-stones to your success. Success minded people  50  those kinds of things for what they really are. They know that for them, they are only temporary.

    Dorothea Shaw is 71 years old and nearly blind, and she chose to live alone far away from people. She lives in Belize — a county the size of Wales with a population only that of Swansea. Her home is at Gales Point, a tiny village which can be reached only by sea or air; after a 10-mile walk into the hills one finally reaches a piece of land and two small houses so hidden in the thick over-grown forest that only a handful of people know Dorothea is there.
    She lives happily and totally alone – growing her vegetables, looking after her trees and dogs, cats and chickens. Once a month or so an old friend passes by with her food supplies and letters-usually including a letter from her sister in Scunthorpe and some bits of clothing from friends in Canada. Sometimes a local man will come and cut wood for her and a group of British soldiers will come across her and be greeted with the offer of a cup of coffee.
    At night she lies in her tiny sleeping room with the dogs on the floor, the cats on the table near the typewriter and one of the hens settled down in a corner of the bookshelf, and listens for hours to any Spanish, English, German or French broadcasts she can find on her radio. Sometimes she gets lonely but most of the time the animals and the radio are company enough.
    But recently the very things that she had tried to get free from so well have begun to catch up with her. The peace of the forest has been destroyed by the noise of earth-moving machines not many miles away. What she once only heard of distantly on the radio is now on her doorstep. Things began to change three years ago. The new main north-south road in Belize was cut through the forest only four or five miles away. “Now more people know I’m here.” She says. “I feel more and more uneasy each day.”
    小题1:Dorothea’s small houses ________.    
    A．are entirely surrounded by trees
    B．have always been her home
    C．were built for just a few people
    D．are in a county with the same population as Wales
    小题2:Dorothea lives in the tiny village because ________.
    A．she doesn’t like living near peopleB．she is too old to move
    C．machines destroyed her homeD．there’s nowhere else for her to live
    小题3: Dorothea doesn’t get lonely since she has _______ with her.
    A．her sisterB．some animalsC．friends from CanadaD．a postman
    小题4:Dorothea spends a lot of time __________.
    A．growing all the food she needsB．cutting down trees
    C．listening to the radioD．studying languages

    第三部分：阅读理解（共16小题；每小题1.5分，满分24分）
    阅读下列短文，然后从各题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。  
    You’ve no doubt heard people say how much they “need” a holiday, when what they really mean is that they want one. Certainly, people working under pressure feel a very strong desire to escape from work and become less tight during holidays, and experience a changed environment.
    However, work for many people today is office work and mental, rather than physical tasks. These people may seek much more energy-taking activities while on holiday, rather than simply lying on a beach. 
    Once people become used to going on holiday, taking holidays becomes a habit. For many people the holiday is one of the last things to be given up, and indeed many workers have chosen to spend some of their last pay when being on holiday. It may give them a “lift” in facing some difficulties in life.
    Most of us also enjoy showing off the lovely tans --- dark skins we get from a holiday. So many tourists are now able to afford holidays in the sun that tans have become quite common; although we join a tan together with health, it has been fully shown that too much sunshine will result in high danger of skin problems, as well as drying out one’s skin and leading to more lines on your face later in life.
    56.According to the passage above, more and more people choose to have holidays because they __________.
    A. love working outdoors all the time    
    B. want to get away from work
    C. love enjoying the beauties of nature   
    D. become rich and want a better life
    57. When office people have holidays, they often _________ .
    A. lie on the beach and enjoy sunshine  
    B. spend more than they can afford
    C. think about their work on the beach  
    D. choose to do more physical exercise
    58 The word “lift” in the last sentence of the third paragraph may _______  
    A. cheer someone up                
    B. help someone find a job
    C. be the last thing not to be given up   
    D. bring good luck to someone
    59 At the end of the passage the writer tries to tell the reader _________.
    A. the importance of getting sunshine   
    B. the bad effect of being on holiday
    C. the result of getting sun tanned
    D. the healthy look of being tanned

    D
    I don’t like getting up too early unless I have to. When you’re filming, you’ve got make-up on, which doesn’t happen often. As I’m not filming at present I’ll get up at 8.30.
    Work normally means Matt coming over to my house about 10 am. We’re writing at the moment. We’ll chat for a bit before going to my study. One of us will have an idea for a sketch (梗概), we’ll talk about the characters and when we feel we have enough we’ll start writing.
    Matt and I met at the National Youth Theatre in 1990 and started doing shows together in ’95, at the Edinburgh Fringe festival. We know we’re onto something if we’ve made each other laugh, and that’s a really special moment. It’s not always like that, but we’re comfortable enough with each other that we can be honest and go. Some days you’re not in the mood to be funny—like writing when my dad was dying of cancer, or when Matt was separating from his partner.
    We stop for lunch and sometimes go to Wagamama in Camden, but the last time we were followed by paparazzi (狗仔队), which gets you down—who wants to be pictured eating noodles?
    When I’m not writing with Matt I work on other projects. My second children’s book comes out later in the year. It’s called Mr. Stink. The first one I dedicated to my three-year-old nephew, Eddie. Both books have been illustrated by Quentin Blake; it’s been a thrill to work with him—like 20 years ago reading a Roald Dahl book and looking at those drawings, then one day that person illustrates your work… magical.
    At 5 I go swimming in Soho. My trainer makes me do horrible exercises, but I always feel better after.
    Being in all day, I like to go out in the evening and look smart, but not like I’ve come out of the City. I’m a tall, broad guy and well-dressed.
    For dinner I’ll meet friends. When you’re a single guy it’s great to have some good female friends. Or I might take my mum to the theatre, as I know she really appreciates it. I like watching TV comedy shows to see what everyone’s doing. When you see something impressive it makes you work harder. I also love Larkin’s poems: they don’t try to transcend (超越) the commonplace; they’re much more straightforward.
    Poetry is great to dip into before going to bed, rather than falling asleep reading a novel and being confused over what you’ve read or not. I haven’t had a good night’s sleep in seven years; unfortunately, I rely on pills. I’ve tried everything. If I could wish anything for myself, I’d wish I could sleep better.
    67. It can be inferred from the passage that _______.
    A. the author spends much time with his friends
    B. the author and Matt are both famous in the district
    C. the author doesn’t care much about what to wear
    D. the author works at home and seldom goes out every day
    68. Where does the passage most likely appear?
    A. In a travel diary.                         B. In a news column.
    C. In an online diary.                    D. In a research paper.
    69. Why does the author read some poetry before going to bed?
    A. Because poetry can often bring him some funny ideas.
    B. Because poetry is much easier to understand than novels.
    C. Because poetry is very abstract and reflects unusual things.
    D. Because poetry can be of some help for him to kill time.
    70. What might be the best title for the passage?
    A. A day’s work with Matt                 B. A new life-style 
    C. A life in the day                       D. A good way to write
