        Last night was the last game for my eight-year-old son's soccer team. It was the final quarter. The score was two to one, my son's team in the lead. Parents surrounded the playground, offering encouragement.
    With less than ten seconds remaining, the ball suddenly rolled in front of my son's teammate, Mickey O'Donnel. With shouts of "Kick it!" echoing (回响) across the playground, Mickey turned around and gave it everything he had. All around me the crowd erupted (沸腾). O'Donnel had scored!
    Then there was silence. Mickey had scored all right, but in the wrong goal, ending the game in a tie. For a moment there was a total hush. You see, Mickey has Down syndrome (综合症) and for him there is no such thing as a wrong goal. All goals were celebrated by a joyous hug from Mickey. He had even been known to hug the opposing players when they scored.
    The silence was finally broken when Mickey, his face filled with joy, hugged my son tightly and shouted, "I scored! I scored. Everybody won! Everybody won!" For a moment I held my breath, not sure how my son would react. I need not have worried. I watched, through tears, as my son threw up his hand in the classic high-five salute and started chanting, "Way to go Mickey! Way to go Mickey!" Within moments both teams surrounded Mickey, joining in the chant and congratulating him on his goal.
    Later that night, when my daughter asked who had won, I smiled as I replied,  "It was a tie. Everybody won."
    61. What was the score of the soccer match?
    A. Two to two, equal to both the teams.        B. Three to one in Mickey's team's favor.
    C. Two to one in the opposite team's favor.        D. Everybody won because of Mickey's goal.
    62. The underlined word "hush" in paragraph 3 means
    A. cheer    B. cry      C. laughter   D. silence
    63. What did the author worry about when Mickey scored and hugged his son?
    A. The result of the match would fail his son.
    B. His son would shout at Mickey for his goal.
    C. Mickey would again hug the opposing players.
    D. His son would understand Mickey's wrong goal.
    64. It can be inferred(推断出) from the passage that ________.
    A. both teams liked and respected Mickey
    B. both teams were thankful to Mickey for his goal
    C. Mickey didn't mind though his goal was wrong
    D. Mickey was a kind- hearted boy and hoped everybody won
    65. The purpose of the author in writing the passage is ________.
    A. to tell a joke to make readers laugh
    B. to suggest we should not mind losing

    认真阅读下面短文，并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填入最恰当的单词。(注意：每空填1个单词。)
    You could fill a store with all the energy drinks now available. They promise to make people feel more energetic and think more clearly. These products have names like Red Bull, Monster, Ripped Force, Speed Stack and 5-Hour Energy. They appeal mainly to young people and are fueled mainly by caffeine.
    Chad Reissig at Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore, Maryland, is a medical researcher who studies drug dependence. He says the team he works on got interested in studying energy drinks because of the explosion in their popularity in the last few years.
    He says the researchers found three major things. One: there are hundreds of brands of energy drinks in most major countries. Two: the drinks are not clearly labeled with enough information. And three: the amount of caffeine varies greatly. Some contain as little as fifty milligrams, others as much as five hundred.
    By comparison, a cup of Starbucks brewed coffee contains 330 milligrams in 473 milliliters.
    Some energy drinks contain a mixture of ingredients listed as an “energy blend(混合物)”. Ingredients like taurine, guarana and inositol are natural substances. But Chad Reissig says scientists do not know a lot about them and how they interact with each other and caffeine. And worse, he says, there is no listing of the amount  of each ingredient.
    Some people combine energy drinks with alcohol. They think they can drink more alcohol that way and not be affected. Studies, however, suggest that they are still under the influence of the alcohol even if they do not feel that way.
    Some makers of energy drinks do provide warnings. For example, a popular energy shot warns against use by people who are pregnant, nursing a baby or under the age of twelve. Energy shots are small bottles of liquid. The directions also advise people to limit caffeine products and drink only half the bottle if they want a moderate (适度的) amount of energy.
    The team at Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine published a report in the journal Drug and Alcohol Dependence. They suggested better labeling with the amount of caffeine and other ingredients clearly listed on the drink. The researchers are continuing to study energy drinks. They are currently seeking young people who have had a bad experience after drinking them.

    During my high school years, the most important thing was what I was wearing to the Friday night dance and who I was taking．Although college was talked about, it was the least of my worries．
    When I was graduating eighth grade and starting high school, my elder brother was graduating twelfth grade and going onto college．For my graduation, he gave me a card in which he wrote, “Enjoy your four years…they go by fast．” I remember not believing him then, but looking back…he was right．Those four years shaped who I was as a person, pushed me to my limit and encouraged me to become an adult．
    However, I was so completely absorbed in my junior and senior years of high school, that when someone spoke of college I brushed it off．I wasn't ready to leave my comfort zone of having all of my closest friends together and knowing what every single day was going to be like．Studying was something I did only AFTER I nailed my half-time dance performance．I knew my parents wanted me to go to college, so I told them I would go to community college (社区学院) and I didn’t worry about my SAT（美国大学入学考试）scores．
    When my senior year passed and everyone graduated and went off to their own college, I started to wish I had done the same．My friends were living away, meeting new people, discovering new places, and I was living at home and driving to and from class every day．It seemed exactly like high school．I hated it! I thought college was supposed to be different! Why didn’t I take more time to research colleges and do the same? I ended up loving college and wishing I had four years to enjoy the campus atmosphere instead of two．
    My advice to anyone thinking about attending college is to think about it very seriously and look into all of your choices well ahead of time．Now I have graduate and I am working full time and I would do anything to go back to my high school days for a second chance!

    D
    I shall never forget the night, a few years ago, when Marion J. Douglas was a student in one of my adult-education classes. He told us how tragedy had struck at his home, not once, but twice. The first time he had lost his five-year-old daughter. He and his wife thought they couldn’t bear that first loss; but, as he said, “Ten months later, God gave us another little girl and she died in five days.”
    This double bereavement was almost too much to bear. “I couldn’t take it,” this father told us. “I couldn’t sleep, eat, rest or relax. My nerves were entirely shaken and my confidence gone.” At last he went to the doctors; one recommended sleeping pills and another recommended a trip, but neither helped. He said, “My body felt as if it was surrounded in a vice(大钳子), and the jaws of the vice were being drawn tighter and tighter.” The tension of grief(悲伤) — if you have ever been paralyzed(使瘫痪) by sorrow, you know what the meant.
    “But thank God, I had one child left — a four-year-old son. He gave me the solution to the problem. One afternoon as I sat around feeling sorry for myself, he asked, ‘Daddy, will you build a boat for me?’ I was in no mood to build a boat; in fact, I was in no mood to do anything. But my son is a persistent fellow! I had to gave in. Building that toy boat took me about three hours. By the time it was finished, I realized that those three hours spent building that boat were first hours of mental relaxation and peace that I had had in months! I realized that it is difficult to worry while you are busy doing something that requires planning and thinking. In my case, building the boat had knocked worry out of the ring. So I determined to keep busy.”
    “The following night, I made a list of jobs that ought to be done. Scores of items needed to be repaired. Amazingly, I had made a list of 242 items that needed attention. During the last two years I have completed most of them. I am busy now that I have no time for worry.”
    No time for worry! That is exactly what Winston Churchill said when he was working eighteen hours a day at the height of the war. When he was asked if he worried about his huge responsibilities, he said, “I am too busy. I have no time for worry.”
    53. The underlined word “bereavement” in the second paragraph refers to _____.
    A. having lost a loved one
    		B. having lost a valuable article
    C. having lost a profit-making business
    		D. having lost a well-paid job
    54. Marion felt his body as if it was caught in a vice because _____.
    A. he couldn’t earn enough money to support his family
    B. he was suffering from sleeplessness disease
    C. he couldn’t get out of mental pressure
    D. he felt tired of adult-education classes
    55. Marion made a list of over 200 items that needed to be repaired because _____.
    A. he hadn’t been able to spare time to mend them
    B. he wanted to kill his free time by repairing them
    C. the items had actually been broken and needed attention
    D. repairing the items helped crowd worry out of his mind
    56. At the end of the passage, the author wrote about Winston Churchill in order to _____.
    A. prove that he followed Churchill’s example
    B. support his student’s solution to his problem
    C. show that he was successful in his career
    D. make it clear how his conclusion was reached

    D
    Yesterday was our three-year anniversary. We didn’t do anything romantic: we just walked hand in hand and talked about our past and future. This was pretty much what I had expected.
    　　Andy is unromantic guy: no sweet words or roses. Smart as he is, he is a little bit shy expressing his love. However, I am an outspoken girl who likes to show her feelings directly. So needless to say, I often feel that is insensitive. I envy other girls who are surrounded by sweet words from their boyfriends.
    　　I was in this sullen mood until I heard a beautiful sentence one day: “If someone does not love you in the way you like, it does not mean that he does not love you.” This simple but sensible sentence made me think about our happy days and recall his deep concern for me.
    　　One cold winter night, I got a high fever. He hurried to my dorm and took me to the hospital. He was in such a hurry that he even forgot to wear socks. Upon arrival, he ran through the hospital handling all the formalities(手续). When I was put on a drip（输液）, he told me interesting stories to make me happy. Being held in his warm arms and listening to his tender voice, I had never felt so safe and comfortable. Gradually, I felt asleep. When I woke up 15 minutes later, he was still whispering to me. He explained that if he had stopped talking I would have waken up. At that moment, I found love in his sparkling eyes.
    　　Another time, I had a bad quarrel with my best friend. Although I knew it was my fault, I refused to admit it. I was angry when he insisted I apologize to her. He said that it was difficult to admit a mistake, but this was what everyone should do. The next morning, I apologized to my friend and asked for her forgiveness.
    　　My unromantic boyfriend cares about my health like my father, understand me like my mother and helps me like my elder brother.
    67. Why does the author envy other girls of her age?
    A. Their boyfriends look more handsome.        B. Their boyfriends express love directly.
    C. They win a lot of praise from colleagues.      D. They often receive roses.
    68. The word “sullen” in Paragraph 3 can be best replaced by “          ”.
    A. cheerful                      B. calm                     C. happy                  D. bad
    69. The author mentioned her experience in hospital to show Andy           .
    A. loves her greatly              B. is always careless      C. is sometimes shy       D. is good at telling stories
    70. The writer writes the passage to tell us that           .
    A. Andy is very outspoken                                B. Andy is a perfect husband
    C. Andy has his own way to express love         D. Andy cares more about others

    B
    Until I started my Happiness Project, I didn’t think much about rituals and whether they made me happy. But when I reflected on them, I realized that I found rituals both calming and energizing.
    For example, in my high school, exams were taken very seriously. When everyone was steeled at a desk, the teacher would pass out the papers, and we would lay them face down. She would return to the front of the classroom, look at the clock, and say quietly, “It is 9:10 now. You have two hours. Be sure to read all the instructions carefully”—then a pause —“you may turn over your test paper and begin now.” This familiar, quiet formula made the start of an exam into a little ritual that put me in the right frame of mind to  face a tense exam.
    In kindergarten, after singing a good-bye song, the children stand in a circle in the classroom, while the grown-ups wait in a line outside the door. The teacher calls the children’s names, one by one, and the child comes to the door to get a big hug and to leave. The orderliness of this process keeps everyone calm and cheerful.
    So think about rituals in your life. Take a moment to taste the enjoyable ones. Think about opportunities to heighten the experience of an ordinary occasion by treating it with special consideration. This is particularly useful if it’s a stressful or emotional experience, discussing a child’s report card, giving a performance review. Packing for a trip, or getting ready for a date.
    Studies show that family traditions and family rituals encourage children’s social development and improve feeling of family. They’re not just important for children but for the whole society. 
    61．From the passage we know that__________．
    A．rituals can make the whole society happy and peaceful
    B．the author felt nervous when he took exams in high school
    C．the exams in high school was a mess
    D．the children are nervous as the adults wait to watch their performance
    62．The author mentions all of the ritual items in paragraph 3 EXCEPT _________ .
    A．singing a good-bye song
    B．standing in a circle in the classroom
    C．children getting a big hug
    D．grown-ups shaking hand with the teacher
    63．Studies show that one way to encourage child’s social development is to___________．
    A．train their parents for rituals
    B．communicate with children
    C．form family rituals
    D．praise their good actions

    “There is nothing more rewarding than taking a pack of 40 dogs to the beach for a pack walk,” says Millan.
    Cesar Millan, star of the National Geographic Channel’s show Dog whisperer and author of the best—selling book Cesar’s way, has a special gift for working with these animals.
    Growing up on a farm in Mexico, Millan knew he wanted to work with dogs. His first job, at age 15, was helping a veterinarian(兽医) . He was so good at calming scared dogs and handling all kinds of situations, so people started calling him le perrero, Spanish for “the dog boy.” Since then, he has built a rewarding career around his favorite animal.
    “My grandfather taught me at an early age not to work against nature,” he explains. In nature,dogs are pack animals. They form a group and follow one leader. Millan’s specialty is teaching people to be pack leaders for their dogs. Everyone in the family should lead, he says.
    He says a lot of people get it backwards because they don’t realize what dogs really need. So the Dog Whisperer doesn’t just train dogs; he trains owners to understand that their pets need rules. At his Dog psychology Center in Los Angeles, California, Millan also works with dogs whose dangerous behavior has prevented them from finding homes. He teaches them to be loving, gentle pets.
    Through dog whisperer, viewers can actually see the change in dogs with troublesome behavior. Some dogs go crazy when visitors arrive, for example, while some have more unusual problems.
    To find the right career, Millan encourages his kids to do what they enjoy. “A lot of people don’t realize I’ve been working with dogs for more than 20 years ——long before my TV show of book. Success followed me because I was following my dream of being the best dog trainer in the world.”
    60． Dog whisperer is        .
    A. a best —selling book          B. a TV show
    C. a dog psychology center        D. Millan’s nickname
    61． Cesar Millan’s being called el perrero suggests that__________.
    A. he was a successful veterinarian     B. he was popular with people
    C. he liked dogs very much           D. his work was fully recognized
    62． The key to Millan’s success as a dog trainer is that__________
    A. he follows the habits of dogs    B. he walks dogs every day
    C.he likes working with dogs      D. he makes rules for dogs
    63． What advice does Millan give on his kids’ career?
    A. To become the best dog trainer in the world.
    B. To choose what they like and stick to it.
    C. Not to work against mature.
    D. Not to be influenced by others.
