I will never forget the lesson which Mr. Li gave us. One day Mr. Li was speaking to us in our school meeting room.  He began his speech by holding up a ¥ 100 bill. He asked, "Who would like this ¥ 100 bill?"  Most of us put up our hands quickly. Then he said, "I am going to give this ¥ 100 to one of you, but first let me do this."  He then made the bill into a ball and said; "Who wants it now?" We raised our hands again.  But he said,“Wait a moment.”He then dropped it on the floor and stepped on it.  After that, he picked up the dirty bill and said, "Who still wants it?" Many hands were still up.

     "My friends," he said, "you have learned a valuable lesson today. No matter what I did to the money, you still wanted it because it did not go down in value. It was still worth ¥ 100."

     "We sometimes lose confidence in ourselves." He went on speaking, "We feel as if we are worth nothing. But remember, no matter what has happened to you, you will never lose your value: you are always valuable to those people who love you.  Your value doesn't come from what you do or who you know, but WHO YOU ARE."

     "You are special and valuable. Don't ever forget it!'

阅读下列材料，从所给的六个选项（A、B、C、D、E和F）中，选出符合各小题要求的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。选项中有一项是多余选项。

阅读下列应用文及相关信息，并按照要求匹配信息。   

以下是学习英浯的方法：

    A. Practice speaking as often as you can -- even speaking to yourself is good practice. Try recording yourself whenever you can.

    B. It helps if you can learn with someone else. If you can persuade a friend or family member to study with you, it will make you keep working. Agree times to meet and set goals for the week. And test each other regularly.

    C. Practice improvising (即兴的) ways of getting your meaning across, even if you don't know the exact words or phrases. Think of things you might want to say whenever you have time. An example is the use of tenses. Use facial expressions, hand movements, anything to get your meaning across.

    D. Guesswork is important in learning a new language. When listening to recorded material, you aren't expected to understand everything the first round. If you play the same piece several times, you will most probably understand something new each time. Learn to make maximum (最大限度) use of all the clues (提示) you can pick up.

    E. A wide vocabulary is the key to successful language learning, but don't try to learn too much vocabulary at once.

    F. If you are the person on the bus, street or restaurant asking how you can improve your English, you are on the right track. The only way to improve your speaking is by speaking. Don't worry about a bad accent or forgetting words or not being understood.

   以下是学习者在学习英语中所碰到的闲难。请匹配这些困难与他们所对应的学习方法。

    56. Jack Anderson's vocabulary is very small. He is very anxious to improve his English. Therefore, he wants to enlarge his vocabulary in a short time and tries his best to memorize new words as many as possible at a time.

    57. Margret Lillian's pronunciation is poor. And she doesn't know how to improve her

pronunciation. She is very worried and doesn't know what to do.

    58. Alice Fingelhamm has difficulty in understanding the meaning of the English text. So she looks up the new words in the dictionary in order to understand everything. However, she made little progress in English.

    59. Although Peter Florian wants to communicate with people on the bus when he is on the way home, he is afraid of being laughed at because of his poor accent.

    60. Lynne Nagata can't express herself clearly in English because she sometimes forgets some key words and doesn't know the tenses exactly.

The food we eat seems to have a great effect on our health. Although science has made big steps in making food more fit to eat, it has, at the same time, made many foods unfit to eat. Some research has shown that perhaps eighty percent of human illness is related to food and forty percent of cancer is related to food as well. That food is related to illness is not a new discovery. In 1945, some researchers realized that things commonly used to keep colour in meats and other food additives（添加剂）caused cancer.

Yet, these additives remain in our food, and it is difficult to know which things on the wrappings（包装）of foods are helpful or harmful. The additives which we eat are not all so direct. Farmers often give penicillin to their animals, and because of this, penicillin has been found in the milk of cows. Sometimes similar things are supplied to animals not for their health, but just to make a profit.

The farmers are simply trying to fatten the animals in order to get a higher price on the market. Although some countries have tried to control such things, the practice continues.

51. According to this passage, we can know      . 

  A. perhaps most of human illness is caused by what we eat

  B. perhaps most kinds of cancer are related to what people eat

  C. cancer was discovered in 1945

  D. science has made food unfit to eat

52. Things that are used to keep colours in meats are       .

  A. harmful      B. useless        C. helpless         D. dangerous

53. All the additives       .

  A. are bright and colourless          

  B. are not bright and colourful

  C. have indirect effects on our health 

  D. have direct effects on our health

54. People use additives       .

  A. to make food more unfit to eat   

  B. to improve the colour and taste of the food

  C. to change colour of the food     

  D. to take off the diseases of the food

55. Which of the following is not true?

  A. Some wrappings of food are harmful.

  B. Farmers try to make more money on the market by fattening their animals.

  C. “The practice continues” means “things are still going on like that”.

  D. We needn’t take care of what we eat.

The easy way out isn't always easiest. I learned that lesson when I decided to treat Doug, my husband of one month, to a special meal. I glanced through my cookbook and chose a menu which included homemade bread. Knowing the bread would take time, I started on it as soon as Doug left for work. As I was not experienced in cooking, I thought if a dozen was good, two dozen would be better, so I doubled everything. As Doug loved oranges, I also opened a can of orange and poured it all into the bowl. Soon there was a sticky dough (面团) covered with ugly yellowish marks . Realizing I had been defeated, I put the dough in the rubbish bin outside so I wouldn't have to face Doug laughing at my work. I went on preparing the rest of the meal and, when Doug got home, we sat down to Cornish chicken with rice. He tried to enjoy the meal but seemed disturbed. Twice he got up and went outside, saying he thought he heard a noise. The third time he left, I went to the windows to see what he was doing. Looking out, I saw Doug standing about three feet from the rubbish bin, holding the lid up with a stick and looking into the container. When I came out of the house, he dropped the stick and explained that there was something alive in our rubbish bin. Picking up the stick again, he held the lid up enough for me to see. I felt cold. But I stepped closer and looked harder. Without doubt it was my work. The hot sun had caused the dough to double in size and the fermenting yeast (酵母) made the surface shake and sigh as though it were breathing . I had to admit what the "living thing" was and why it was there. I don't know who was more embarrassed by the whole thing--- Doug or me.

41. The writer's purpose in writing this story is ________.

   A. to tell an interesting experience

42. Why did the woman's attempt at making the bread turn out to be unsuccessful?

A. The canned orange had gone bad.              B. She didn't use the right kind of flour.

C. The cookbook was hard to understand.      D. She did not follow the directions closely.

43. Why did the woman put the dough in the rubbish bin?

  A. She didn't see the use of keeping it        

  B. She meant to joke with her husband.

  C. She didn't want her husband to see it.      

  D. She hoped it would soon dry in the sun.

44. What made the dough in the bin look frightening?

  A. The rising and falling movement.          B. The strange-looking marks.

  C. Its shape.                                          D. Its size.

45. When Doug went out the third time, the woman looked out of the window because she was_____.

B. afraid that he would discover her secret

  C. unhappy that he didn't enjoy the meal

     A bar manager was so sure that he himself was the strongest man. Thus he made a bet and declared he would offer $1000 if   21   could beat him.

     The   22   was that the landlord would squeeze（压榨）a lemon until all the   23   ran out into a beer glass, then hand the lemon to the customer. Anyone who could squeeze even one more  24   out of the lemon would win the money.

     After the laughter had quieted down the landlord said that it was only fair that the man should be given a   27   at the bet, so he picked up a lemon and started squeezing. Once he had done, he handed the   28   to the little man. Immediately, the little man promptly squeezed out 4 more drops of juice onto the bar!

     Everyone looked at the little man in   29   as the landlord handed over the prize and asked"What do you do for a living that has given you such   30  ? Are you a lumberjack, weightlifter?"

    "No." the man replied, "I work for the IRS.( 美国国税局)"
