    Dear Mr. Barton,
    I am writing for the residents’ association (业主协会) to inform you of our feelings about your act. We’ve really had enough of you. Although we have tried to speak to you politely on several occasions, you have always answered with a stream of verbal abuse(辱骂).
    Ever since you moved in three months ago, you have shown very little consideration for the other residents of this building, though many residents expressed their unhappiness with you. For the past six weekends, you have held very noisy parties, which have not finished until early the next morning. As you know, most of the people here are elderly or have very young children, and the noise keeps them awake all night. You don’t have to be so noisy, do you? Last weekend the situation deteriorated when two of your friends fought with each other on the first floor. The fighting was so bad that the police had to be called. What’s more, your friends left the stairs in a terrible state --- they even broke two windows on their way out! We feel that we can’t bear this type of act.
    We strongly demand that you pay for this damage to the window soon. If you don’t and you carry on being a nuisance(令人讨厌的人或物). We will kick you out! Legal steps will be taken if necessary.
    Yours sincerely,
    Resident
    57. What does the writer feel? 
    A. Excited                      B. surprised                  C. Angry               D. Happy
    58. What does the word “deteriorated” mean?
    A. Changed                 B. Improved                C. Moved    D. Worsened
    59. What is the main purpose of the letter?
    A. To ask Mr. Barton to leave the building for the peace.        
    B. To inform Mr. Barton of the noise he made.
    C. To talk about what Mr. Barton did.   D. To give a warning to Mr. Barton.
    60. What is true according to the letter?
    A. Mr. Barton paid no attention to the others’ unhappiness.   
    B. Mr. Barton never replied to the others’ unhappiness
    C. Mr. Barton always said sorry to those unhappy with him.     
    D. Mr. Barton never apologized to the other residents.

    There is one thing better than making a new friend, and that is keeping an old one.
    ——Elmer G Letterman
    Two years ago my family moved. The day we left, my best friend and I cried together in my  36  bedroom for hours. I was miserable during the five-hour car ride to my new house. Life was  37 ．
    On the first day of school, I called my best friend to tell her how it had gone. Then on Halloween, I sent her a letter and a picture of my new friends and me．
    Finally, she wrote me a letter. It wasn’t  38  a letter—a piece of paper saying, “Best friends forever”．
    When I finally got her e-mail address, I e-mailed her the  39  letter I have ever written. After the third e-mail with no  40 , my messages grew shorter and shorter.  41  each passing day, my  42  grew．I never received a reply from her．
    Mom said that I  43  try calling my other friends, and that I didn’t need to always call her.  44  my best friend, the girl that I had known from my childhood?
    My first  45  was automatic．“No way!” But after five more e-mail messages, I started to consider what my mom had  46 ．Every night for about a week, I stayed up in bed,  47 , “Should I keep trying or．．．?”
    The way I looked at it was that: if I’m her best friend, she’d  48  a minute to push a few buttons on the phone, or type a short “hello” on the computer. To me, keeping in touch is part of being a friend and it is important. To her, it really didn’t seem to  49 ．
    After two years of  50 , I finally got a phone call from her—my best friend. It was a big  51 ．She told me how sorry she was for not writing, and about how busy she had been. I forgot about everything that had happened and how annoyed I had been with her．I  52  her．I guess keeping in touch just isn’t her  53 ．
    I have realized true friends never really lose their special  54 ．Even after two years, it felt like we had just talked yesterday.
    Now she and I write regularly—or at least she tries to,  55  she tries hard.

    B
    The worst danger is a house on fire when people are asleep. Always be ready to leave through a window into the garden by making sure you can open it if necessary. If you should be on holiday in a tall building or hotel, make sure you know where the fire escape(太平梯) is. When you can’t find any way out, try to find pieces of cloth and make a rope to get out of a window to safety. If you smell burning in your home, get out right away. If you can’t breathe properly because of smoke on your way out, crawl(爬) on your hands and knees because smoke rises and the air will be cleaner near the floor. Smoke is a killer and more people die from breathing it in than actually being burned.
    Fire in a cinema hall or public place often means people pushing to reach a door. Keep your head up with arms up in front of your chest. This protects your chest and gives you the best chance to breathe. Above all, don’t get frightened!
    60. When a tall building is on fire, people______.
    A.can leave by coming down the fire escape     B.should first check the room window
    C.had better find a long rope                 D.must lie down on the floor at once
    61. People can leave a burning house through a window if ______.

    A.Leave the house right away when you smell something burning.
    B.Raise your head and keep your chest from being hurt.
    C.Get out of the house by crawling on the floor.
    D.Rush out of the house, dressed in wet clothes.

    C
    People think being an artist must be a wonderful way to earn one's living. Of course, there are lots of great things about working for oneself, at home alone. What I really like is that nobody tells me what time to start in the morning, what to wear; or whether I can take the afternoon off and go to a football match.
    But then, I have no one to chat with when I'm bored, no one to discuss last night's match with during the lunch-hour. Sure, I can spend the afternoon doing something I enjoy like swimming, walking the dog, or even sleeping, if I choose. But the work will still be there when I do finally get back home, and it's still got to be finished in time. Unfortunately, working at home means that people can always find me, whether I’m bored or not and once I’ve answered the doorbell, it's too late——my thoughts have been interrupted. No one would dream of calling if I worked in an office, but in an office I find myself making cups of coffee and listening to friends' troubles. As they talk, my ideas disappear and I feel increasingly stressed thinking of my work waiting to be done.
    66. What is the writer trying to do in the text?
    A. To encourage readers to work at home.     
    B. To explain why he has changed his job.
    C. To describe his working life.             
    D. To say how he would like to work.
    67. What can the reader learn from the text?
    A. How to start working for oneself.         
    B. What it's like to work at home.
    C. Why the writer decided to work for himself. 
    D. How artists become successful?
    68. What does the writer like about his life?
    A. He has plenty of opportunities for sport.    
    B. He is his own boss.
    C. He can see people when he wants to.       
    D. He has a comfortable place to work.
    69. What does the writer imagine he might do with colleagues ( 同事 ) ?
    A. Have meals in restaurants.                
    B. Go to the swimming pool.
    C. Spend time in the countryside.                 
    D. Talk about sport.
    70. Which of these notices would be most useful for the writer to put on his door?

    I went over my grandmother’s house today and she didn’t have time for me. You see, the lady’s husband downstairs died and my Grandmother wanted to make some cookies for her. My grandmother did not analyze (分析) how the lady treated her, or if the lady needed any cookies, or even if the lady would like the cookies. She didn’t think how much the lady has done for her. She simply began baking.
    My Grandmother turned 94 last week and this I believe is her secret to life. My grandmother is generous (慷慨) and hard-working in a way that is rare for our time. She lives by a simple belief: if someone needs your help, you help. Never mind all the analyzing and thinking whether the person deserves or appreciates the help. My grandmother doesn’t sit around thinking about who might be making use of her: she simply does what is needed.
    At 94, she is busy in life. She is making a blanket for a new great grandchild, and worried that I don’t have enough kitchen towels for my home. She is bringing soup to a sick neighbor, and teaching the new wife of her cousin (who is 88) how to cook Italian food.
    My grandmother had every right to give up, but she didn’t — and amazingly life did bring her good things, like a husband with twinkling blue eyes who was much ahead of his time and believed that men should do an equal amount of cooking and cleaning in the home, three beautiful children (my father and two aunts), 22 grandchildren, and five great grandchildren. My grandmother is not afraid to give someone she barely knows a bowl of soup. She never keeps herself out of the world.
    61. The reason why my grandmother made cookies for the lady downstairs is that ________.
    A. she thought the lady was too busy
    B. she would make them as thanks to her
    C. she thought she should do something for the lady at the special time
    D. they had had an agreement before
    62. In the writer’s opinion, ________.
    A. my grandmother has a secret way of living
    B. my grandmother does everything on careful consideration
    C. few people are as generous as my grandmother now
    D. my grandmother will get something in return
    63. Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?
    A. My grandmother cares for her children even some strangers.
    B. My grandfather does not treat women in an unfair way.
    C. This is a family in which there are nearly 30 people now.
    D. My grandmother never keeps everything for herself.
    64. We may infer from the text that the writer ________.
    A. thinks his grandmother is living a tired life
    B. thinks his grandmother is doing what she should do
    C. thinks his grandmother should not be so kind
    D. is proud of his grandmother

    “Life is speeding up. Everyone is getting unwell.”
    This may sound like something someone would say today. But in fact, an unknown citizen who lived in Rome in AD 52 wrote it.
    We all love new inventions. They are exciting, amazing and can even change our lives.
    But have all these developments really improve the quality of our lives?
    Picture this: You’re rushing to finish your homework on the computer. Your mobile phone rings, a QQ message from your friend appears on the screen, the noise from the television is getting louder and louder. Suddenly the computer goes blank and you lose all your work. Now you have to stay up all night to get it done. How calm and happy do you feel?
    Inventions have speeded up our lives so much that they often leave us feeling stressed and tired. Why do you think people who live far away from noisy cities, who have not telephones, no cars, not even any electricity often seem to be happier? Perhaps because they lead simpler lives.
    One family in the UK went “back in time” to see what life was like without all the inventions we have today. The grandparents, with their daughter, and grandsons Benjamin, 10, and Tomas, 7, spent nine weeks in a 1940s house. They had no washing machine, microwave, computer or mobile phones.
    The grandmother, Lyn, said, “It was hard physically, but not mentally.” She believed life was less materialistic. “The more things you have, the more difficult life becomes,” She said. The boys said they fought less to fight over, such as their computer. Benjamin also noticed that his grandmother had changed from being a “trendy（时髦的）, beer-drinking granny, to one who cooked things.”
    Here are some simple ways to beat the stress often caused by our inventions!
    Don’t be available all the time. Turn off your mobile phone at certain times of the day. Don’t check your e-mail every day.
    Don’t reply to somebody as soon as they leave a text message just because you can. It may be fun at first, but it soon gets annoying.
    72．The passage is mainly about        .
    A．problem with technology
    B．improvements of our life with technology
    C．the important roles technology plays in our everyday life
    D．major changes which will be likely to happen to technology
    73．The writer quoted（引用） what a citizen in ancient Rome said at the beginning of the story in order to        .
    A．share a truth about life
    B．tell us what life was like long time ago
    C．make us wonder what causes such a thing to happen
    D．point out that you experience some big problems and they may be the same
    74．Why did the family choose to spend some time in a 1940’s house? Because        .
    A．they liked to live simple lives
    B．they were curious about how people lived without modern inventions
    C．they were troubled by modern inventions
    D．living in a different time would be a lot of fun for them
    75．What do you think the underlined word “available” in the first suggestion offered by the writer mean?
    A．Busy on line.   B．Free..       C．Be able to.       D．Be found by others.

    Happiness and sadness are states of being states of being that define the way we view the world. It is often said that some people by nature have a sunny character. Now scientists may have discovered why.
    Some people may be hard-wired for happiness, while others are genetically negative, as
    scientists have suggested in a study published in late February, in a British journal Proceedings of the Royal Society B.
    Earlier research had already established that the gene known as 5-HTTLPR plays a key role in
    determining how the neurotransmitter (神经传递素) serotonin (血清素) works within the brain. Serotonin, a hormone (荷尔蒙), passes chemical messages between nerve cells. It has been closely linked to mood. Several anti-depressant (抗抑郁) drugs regulate serotonin levels. Scientists had also identified three variants of the gene. Two so-called "short" variants were linked to a higher risk of depression and suicide attempts. Unlike the two "short" variants, the "long" variant of 5-HTTLPR showed a clear dislike of negative images, such as fierce animals, and a clear liking for positive ones, such as flowers.
    Researchers from the University of Essex in Britain, led by Elaine Fox, showed participants a
    series of images. The images were divided into three kinds: negative ones aimed at inspiring fear or stress such as a spider or person about to commit suicide, pleasant ones and neutral ones.
    “The participants who had the long variant of the 5-HTTLPR gene showed a clear dislike of negative material alongside a careful attention for positive material,” the researchers found. They paid close attention to the pretty pictures, and ignored the frightening ones. On the other hand, the short variant groups had the opposite reaction.
    In January, the Australian government organized "happiness workshops", teaching government
    staff how to be happy. The department that held the "happiness workshops" said unhappy staff weren't productive staff. Australian political opposition parties have argued that the "happiness workshops" are probably a waste of money and couldn't increase productivity as intended. However, whether the workshop will have a happy or disappointing result, we will have to wait and see.
    67．Form the third paragraph, we know that         .
    A．affected by 5-HTTLPR, the neurotransmitter serotonin works within the blood
    B．there are 5 variants of 5-HTTLPR genes which control people’s moods
    C．how the neurotransmitter serotonin works is greatly determined by 5-HTTLPR
    D．5-HTTLPR receives chemical messages from verve cells
    68．What does “It” in the sentence “It has been closely linked to mood.” in the 3rd paragraph refer to?
    A．Serotonin.          B．A nerve cell.        C．5-HTTLPR.         D．The brain.
    69．If a person had the long variant of 5-HTTLPR, he or she would probably         .
    A．like the images of spiders                     B．prefer the images of crocodiles
    C．enjoy an image of green tress                D．suffer from depression very often
