A feeling of excitement overcame me as I looked around the stadium．

At 5:30 pm, two hours before game time, I walked into the locker room（更衣室）．My 36 of school, music and what I planned to do on Saturday night were 37 with the simple aim to beat the football team across the field from us tonight．

Approaching my locker（衣物柜）, I noticed my teammates 38 ．Some rested on benches, staring up at the ceiling 39 it were a film of the opposing team’s play．Some seemed a bit more 40 , using the time to tell jokes．A few stared at the field, 41 what will happen in 120 minutes．

Our coach, Tony Severino, came out of his office at 6 o’clock．He told the team how 42 this game was for the season, between two of the state’s top teams—my school and our opposing team, Liberty High School．His words gave the team impulse（冲动）it needed to 43 ．

At 7:10 pm, warm – ups finished, we went over the game 44 and discussed what we needed to do for the next three hours．The sound of the national anthem（国歌） 45 that we were only minutes from the action．Our coach usually made a final 46 ．But tonight was different．On this clear night he 47 looked around the room at all the players and shouted, ―Let’s go and get them．‖ Even 48 the ―get‖ came out of his mouth, we were already 49 our way out of the door．

3

Outside, a few young fans reached to touch our hands, eager to be a 50 of our school’s winning tradition．When I smiled and 51 my hand, the young faces lit up as if they had just met Superman．

Seconds later, the team ran onto the 52 , moving as a mass of blue, in front of a packed stadium．We enjoyed a noisy 53 from fans and the fight song played by our school band．Breathing in the 54 of one of the biggest game of the year, I felt we were sure to win．I told myself, ―This was what it was all about‖ and 55 that it was for moments like this that I loved high school football． 36．A．thoughts B．ideas C．pictures D．minds 37．A．covered B．mixed C．replaced D．filled 38．A．exercising B．struggling C．preparing D．previewing 39．A．in case B．even though C．as long as D．as if 40．A．relaxed B．worried C．frightened D．impressed 41．A．dreaming B．wishing C．expecting D．imagining 42．A．useless B．difficult C．available D．important 43．A．warm up B．pick up C．get up D．rise up 44．A．route B．frame C．plan D．forecast 45．A．urged B．insisted C．suggested D．stressed 46．A．speech B．preparation C．decision D．change 47．A．finally B．simply C．actually D．eventually 48．A．when B．before C．as D．since 49．A．leading B．dragging C．showing D．making 50．A．player B．friend C．part D．team 51．A．held out B．took out C．got out D．brought out 52．A．field B．stage C．yard D．garden 53．A．success B．reply C．achievement D．welcome 54．A．atmosphere B．experience C．expectation D．examination 55．A．accepted B．admitted C．realized D．recognized 第三部分：阅读理解（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分）

阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

A

My friend must be the wisest woman on this planet, for she has lived up to the three words ―Seize the moment‖．Too many people put off something that brings them joy just because they haven’t thought about it, or because they are unwilling to try something new．

My sister died a few years ago．We never did have lunch together．I can’t remember how many times I was refused when I called her to go to lunch．She would say to me: ―I can’t, my brother．I have clothes on the line．‖ ―My hair is dirty．I wish I had known yesterday．‖ ―I had a late breakfast．‖ ―It looks like rain．‖ Only after her death did I choose to be a little more flexible（灵活的）．

Life is not made up of things that you do at a particular time, but it demands variety and adventure．As we grow older, the list of promises made to ourselves may get longer．Perhaps one morning, when we wake up, we will find to our surprise that our life is full of ―I’m going to‖, ―I plan to‖ and ―Someday, when things are settled down a bit．‖

My seize the-moment friend is open to adventure and ready at any moment to make a new start．She keeps an open mind about new ideas．Her great interest in life is contagious．With her around you, you may trade your bad feet for good shoes．

I have not touched ice cream for 10 years．The other day, I stopped off and bought a triple-decker（三

层冰淇淋）．If my car had hit an iceberg（冰山） on the way home, I would have died happy． 56．The passage suggests that the author’s sister _________________． A．was very busy with her work B．died a very happy person C．always did things in a fixed order D．was the wisest woman in the world 57．The writer has had a new way of looking at life since ___________． A．his sister died B．he met the wise woman C．he turned old D．the three words appeared

58．The underlined word ―contagious‖ is used to show that the woman is_______． A．polite B．influential C．practical D．proud 59．The author expects those who have read the passage to ___________． A．have a long list of promises B．be a smart businessman C．hit an iceberg in their cars D．be as adventurous as himself

B

―The first and best of victories is for a man to conquer himself; to be conquered by himself is, of all things, the most shameful,‖ says Plato．Self-control is at the root of all the advantages．Let a man give in to his impulses （冲动） and feelings, and from that moment he gives up his moral （道德上的） freedom． A single angry word has lost many a friend．When Socrates found in himself any temper or anger, he would check it by speaking low in order to control himself．If you are conscious of being angry, keep your mouth shut so that you can hold back rising anger．Many a person has dropped dead in great anger．Fits of anger bring fits of disease．―Whom the gods would destroy they first make mad．‖ ―Keep cool‖, says George Herbert, ―for fierceness （狂怒） makes error a fault．‖

To be angry with a weak man is to prove that you are not strong yourself．―Anger,‖ says Pythagoras, ―brings with folly（愚蠢） and ends with regret．‖ You must measure the strength of a man by the power of the feelings he conquers, not by the power of those which conquer him． Self-control is man’s last greatest victory．

If a man lacks self-control he seems to lack everything．Without it he can have no patience, no power to govern himself; he can have no self-confidence, for he will always be controlled by his strongest feeling．If he lacks self-control, the very backbone and nerve of character are lacking also． 60．What does the reader learn from the first paragraph? A．The greatest victory for a man is to conquer everything except himself． B．One’s moral freedom is based on the control of himself． C．To control oneself is the most difficult in one’s life． D．If a person is too stubborn, he will feel most shameful．

61．If a man lacks self-control, he lacks all of the following EXCEPT _______． A．the very backbone and nerve of character B．strong feelings C．the patience and power to control himself D．self-confidence

62．What’s the best title of this passage? A．Victories of conquering oneself． B．Moral freedom． C．Self-control D．Advantages of self-control．

C

Cloning is suggested as a means of bringing back a relative, usually a child, killed tragically．Some parents can understand that wish, but it must first be recognized that the copy would be a new baby and not the lost child．Here lies the difficulty, for the sad parents are seeking not a new baby but a return of the dead one．Since the original would be fondly remembered as having particular talents and interests, would not

5

the parents expect the copy to be the same? It is possible, however, that the copy would develop quite differently．Is it fair to the new child to be placed in a family with such unnatural expectations?

Copying is also suggested as a means by which parents can have the child of their dreams．Couples might choose to have a copy of a film star, baseball player or scientist, depending on their interest．But because personality is only partly the result of genetic inheritance（遗传）, conflicts would be sure to arise if the cloned child failed to develop the same interests as the original．What if the copy of Einstein shows no interest in science? Or the baseball player turns to acting? Success also depends upon fortune．What if the child does not live up to the hopes and dreams of the parents simply because of bad luck?

Every child should be wanted for itself, as an individual．In making a copy of oneself or some famous person, a parent is deliberately（深思熟虑地） specifying（详细说明） the way he or she wishes that child to develop．In recent years, particularly in the U．S．, much importance has been placed on the right of individuals to reproduce in ways that they wish．So I suggest there is a greater need to consider the interests of the child and to reject these proposed uses of cloning． 63．What happens to parents in cloning a lost child? A．Parents expect too much from the copy． B．Parents may get a quite different copy． C．Parents are sure to have an identical copy． D．Parents lose the talents of the lost child． 64．What, in the author’s opinion, affects the success of parents’ dreams? A．The cloned child’s natural talent． B．The cloned child’s interest in Einstein． C．The cloned child’s personality． D．The efforts of the parents． 65．In the third paragraph, the author implies that ______． A．the cloned child is viewed as independent． B．the right of growing in his own way is taken away from the cloned child C．parents carefully protect the rights of the cloned child． D．parents are eager to wish the cloned child to be somebody． 66．In this passage, the author is mainly concerned about ______． A．the future of a cloned child． B．the possibility of cloning people． C．the importance of cloning a lost child． D．the problems of cloning life．

D

Among various programs, TV talk shows have covered every inch of space on daytime television．And anyone who watches them regularly knows that each one is different in style（风格）．But no two shows are more opposite in content, while at the same time standing out above the rest, than the Jerry Springer and the Oprah Winfrey shows．

Jerry Springer could easily be considered the king of ―rubbish talk‖．The contents on his show are as surprising as can be．For example, the show takes the ever-common talk show titles of love, sex, cheating, and hate, to a different level．Clearly, the Jerry Springer show is about the dark side of society, yet people are willing to eat up the troubles of other people’s lives．

Like Jerry Springer, Oprah Winfrey takes TV talk show to its top．But Oprah goes in the opposite direction．The show is mainly about the improvement of society and different quality（质量） of life．Contents are from teaching your children lessons, managing your work week, to getting to know your neighbors．

Compared to Oprah, the Jerry Springer show looks like poisonous waste being poured into society．Jerry ends every show with a ―final word‖．He makes a small speech about the entire idea of the show．Hopefully, this is the part where most people will learn something very valuable．

Clean as it is, the Oprah show is not for everyone．The show’s main viewers are middleclass Americans．Most of these people have the time, money, and ability to deal with life’s tough problems．Jerry Springer, on the other hand, has more of a connection with the young adults of society．These are

6

18-to-21-year-olds whose main troubles in life include love, relationship, sex, money and drug．They are the ones who see some value and lessons to be learned through the show’s exploitation．

67．Compared with other TV talk shows, both the Jerry Springer and the Oprah Winfrey are _____． A．more interesting． B．unusually popular． C．more detailed． D．more formal．

68．Though the social problems Jerry Springer talks about appear unpleasant, people who watch the

shows____． A．remain interested in them． B．are ready to face up to them． C．remain cold to them． D．are willing to get away from them． 69．Which of the following is likely to be a topic of the Oprah Winfrey show? A．A new type of robot． B．Nation hatred（憎恨）． C．Family income planning． D．Street accident． 70．We can learn from the passage that the two talk shows_____． A．have become the only ones of its kind． B．exploit the weaknesses in human nature． C．appear at different times of the day． D．attract different people．

第四部分 任务型阅读（共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分）

请认真阅读下面短文，并根据所读内容在图表的空格里填上最恰当的单词（每空一词）。

We live in a noisy world．Young and old alike are troubled by sounds over which we may have little or no control: car and house alarms, motorcycles, loudspeakers, even movie previews．

We attend rock concerts, weddings, parties and sports events at which the music is so loud you can hardly hear the person sitting next to you．At home, televisions, stereos and computer games are often turned up so loud that listeners cannot hear a doorbell or a telephone．

As if environmental noise were not enough, now we surround children with noisy toys and personal listening devices that can permanently damage their hearing．A series of studies conducted in 2002 indicated that even moderate（缓和的）background noise can interfere with how they learn language．In fact, children in classrooms on the noisy side of a school had lower reading scores than those whose classes were on the quiet side．

Noise-induced（噪音诱发的） hearing loss can come about in two ways: from a brief exposure to a very loud noise or from consistent（不断的） exposure to moderate-level noise．Thus, there is much concern about the lasting effects of MP3 players that are turned up loud enough to block out surrounding sound, like street noise．An MP3 player at maximum volume produces about 105 decibels（分贝） — 100 times as severe as 85 decibels, where hearing damage begins．

So, before buying noisemaking toys, parents would do well to listen to how loud they are．If the item comes with a volume control, monitor its use to make sure it is kept near the lowest level．Consider returning gifts that make loud noises, or disable the noise-making function．Children who play computer games and stereo equipment should be warned to keep the volume down．Most iPods have a control that allows parents to set a maximum volume．

Don’t take children to loud action movies．If you do go and the sound seems deafening, ask the management to turn down the volume or insist on your money back．

The League for the Hard of Hearing urges parents to encourage children to take part in quiet activities, like reading, doing puzzles, making things with construction toys, playing educational computer games, drawing and painting, and visiting libraries and museums．

shows no respect for human life．

86．One of the reasons is that he can not find the motivation to study． 87．I recognized her the instant I saw her．

Happiness means different things to different people．For example, some students believe that if they have a lot of money they will be happy, because they think they will be able to do anything they want to do and buy anything they want with the money．Some students think that they should be in good health so that they can enjoy their life better．Many students wish to have much wealth from their parents．In this way they don’t have to work hard, and they can own everything．

I don’t really agree with the points above．I don’t think money means happiness．We can’t buy many important things with money, such as health, happiness, and knowledge．I value knowledge, which makes me happy, for I can do much for mankind with knowledge． Although different people value happiness differently, my ―wealth‖ of happiness is in my study．
