1.One morning more than thirty years ago,I entered the Track Kitchen,a restaurant where everyone from the humblest(卑微的) to the most powerful came for breakfast.I noticed an empty chair next to an elderly,unshaven man,who looked somewhat disheveled.He was wearing a worn-out hat and was alone.I asked if I might join him.He agreed quietly and I sat down to have my breakfast.
We cautiously began a conversation and spoke about a wide range of things.We never introduced ourselves.I was concerned that he might have no money and not be able to afford something to eat.So as I rose to go back to the counter and buy a second cup of coffee,I asked,
"May I get you something?"
"A coffee would be nice."
Then I bought him a cup of coffee.We talked more,and he accepted another cup of coffee.Finally,I rose to leave,wished him well,and headed for the exit.At the door I met one of my friends.He asked,
"How did you get to know Mr.Galbreath?"
"Who?"
"The man you were sitting with.He is chairman of the Board of Churchill Downs."
I could hardly believe it.I was buying,offering a free breakfast,and feeling pity for one of the world's richest and most powerful men!
My few minutes with Mr.Galbreath changed my life.Now I try to treat everyone with respect,no matter who I think they are,and no matter another human being with kindness and sincerity.

21.What does the underlined word"disheveled"mean?B
A.Unfriendly.
B.Untidy.
C.Gentle.
D.Kind.
22.The author bought coffee for the old man becauseA
A.he thought the old man was poor
B.he wanted to start a conversation
C.he intended to show his politeness
D.he would like to thank the old man
23.How did the author probably feel after he talked with his friend?C
A.Proud
B.Pitiful 
C.Surprised 
D.Regretful
24.What is the message mainly expressed in the story?D
A.We should learn to be generous.
B.It is honorable to help those in need.
C.People in high positions are not like what we expect.
D.We should avoid judging people by their appearances.

分析 本文講述了"我"在吃早點的時候遇到一個看起來穿著邋遢的老人,并且?guī)椭I了一杯咖啡,事后得知他是最富有的Mr.Galbreath,旨在告訴我們不要以貌取人

解答 21.B.詞義猜測題.根據(jù)前一句I noticed an empty chair next to an elderly,unshaven (未剃須的)man.這個人胡須都沒有剃,說明他有點不過整潔.故B項最符合句意.
22.A.細節(jié)理解題.根據(jù)第二段2,3行I was concerned that he might have no money and not be able to afford something to eat.可知我擔心他沒有前買吃的東西.說明我認為他可能很窮,故A正確.
23.C.推理判斷題.根據(jù)文章倒數(shù)第二段I could hardly believe it.I was buying,offering a free breakfast,and feeling pity for one of the world's richest and most powerful men!我竟然給世界上最富有的最有權力的人買了一杯免費的咖啡!說明我對對方的身份感覺非常地驚訝,沒有想到對方是如此著名的一個人.故C正確.
24.D.主旨大意題.作者通過自己在餐廳里遇見了一個衣冠不整的人,我和他聊的很好,很擔心他沒有錢來付賬.但結果卻發(fā)現(xiàn)他是世界上最富有的人之一,通過這個故事告訴我們不要以貌取人.故選D

點評 考察學生的細節(jié)理解和推理判斷能力,做細節(jié)理解題時一定要找到文章中的原句,和題干進行比較,再做出正確的選擇.在做推理判斷題不要以個人的主觀想象代替文章的事實,要根據(jù)文章事實進行合乎邏輯的推理判斷.

12.If you take a look at the best-selling books in the UK these days,it is almost certain that there will be a lot of autobiographies (自傳) in that list.Bill Clinton,Nelson Mandela and actor Michael J Fox have all written them.An autobiography is the story of a person?s life,written by that person.It is usually a very famous person who might tell us all about their childhood,how they became famous and any other interesting things that have happened in their lives.
Traditionally,someone would write an autobiography when they were older because they had had a long,successful life.However,these days there are many magazines with stories and photos of the stars which sell very well.Reality TV shows are extremely popular and lots of people become famous very easily just from being on the TV rather than being able to sing or act well.As a result,people become famous very quickly and as soon as they are famous,a lot of money can be made from writing an autobiography,even if they are very young.
So now you can find an autobiography from almost everyone who is in the public eye.Even though we can follow the lives of the stars very closely on TV or in magazines nowadays,we maybe don?t know how they live their lives from day to day.Autobiographies often give the information we never knew about the stars.The British public are very curious to find out more so they are very eager to read autobiographies.
Not every star wants to write though.Sometimes stars employ writers to write their life stories for them.The writer will interview the stars,listen to everything they want to say,record interviews and then write books based on their words.David Beckham did this with his book My Side.
Not everyone likes to read books regularly but they might like to read about the lives of stars.Autobiographies are helping to get more British people reading books.About 100million autobiographies are sold in Britain every year.More stars depend on them for extra income and as more of these books appear in the shops,more people are sure to keep buying them.
Autobiographies,stories writt en by famous people about themselves,are popular in the UK.(要點1)But unlike traditional ones,many of today's autobiographies are about young stars who rise to fame quickly.(要點2)As they often contain information unknown before,readers are keen on reading them.(要點3)Not fond of writing,however,some celebrities hire writers to write their autobiographies.(要點4)Besides,due to autobiographies,more British people are involved in reading now.(要點5)(68 words).

9.Parents do anything they can to give their kids the best chance to succeed.According to a report published by the Sutton Trust,a third of"professional parents"with children aged between five and 16 have moved to an area because they think it has good schools,and 18% to a specific school's catchment area.Some go further:3% admitted using a relative's address to get children into a particular school;and 2% said they had bought a second home and used that address to qualify for a place.
As well as a fair few white lies,it all adds up to a large amount of money spent on trying to improve your children's chances of doing better educationally-and the point the Sutton Trust wants to make is that the more money you have,the more you can do to"buy"an advantage.
It seems strange that parents,while focusing so eagerly on school,seem often to ignore a much cheaper way of improving their children's educational fate.Because the more stable a home life children have,the better they will be able to concentrate at school,the better behaved they will be in school,and the better grades they will have on leaving school.
 There's plenty of research to back all this up:a recent study by the Childhood Wellbeing Research Centre found that children aged seven and older tended to do more poorly in exams and to behave badly at school if their parents split up.Another report funded by the Economic and Social Research Council,released at the end of last year,found that a stable family life meant children were more likely to take in what's being offered in the classroom.According to the Royal College of Psychiatrists,teenagers whose parents are fighting or separating may find it difficult to concentrate at school.
 Of course,many marriages are completely on track,100% hunky dory,and here the only thing worth stressing about is a school's SATs and GCSE results.But it may not be you,and I have to admit it's not me either:I've been married for more than a quarter of a century,and the one thing I'm sure of is that it's not a bed of roses.I've got four children aged between 11 and 21; and while I'm truly grateful to the many teachers who have taught them,and the schools they've been pupils at,I've become more convinced as the years go by that a stable home is an absolutely vital part in how they're getting on-and certainly much more crucial than where their school sits in the local league table.
So spending a few hundred dollars for a course of Relate counselling sessions (and if you're on a low income,it can be a lot less,or even free) could be a much better use of the family's funds than spending thousands on moving house.Sure,your children might end up at a school whose exam results are far from satisfactory-but that's more than balanced against by the fact that they are likely to do better for having happier parents (and moving house,after all,puts even more pressure on a relationship).
According to Relate,80% of clients who went for adult relationship counselling said their partnership had been strengthened as a result.According to a whole pile of research stretching back across many decades,children tend to do best when they're raised in a stable family.I can't help wondering whether the only sure winners from the struggle to live by the best school gates are estate agents (房地產商) rather than the very children the move is designed to help.

65.From the writer's point,to educate their children better,parents are expected toD.
A.move to an area which has good schools
B.use a relative's address
C.buy a second home
D.turn to adult relationship counselling sessions 
66.The writer might subscribe to the idea thatC.
A.the more money you have,the more you can do to"buy"an advantage 
B.the more stable a home life children have,the more difficult it is for them to concentrate at school
C.as to his marriage there is still room for improvement
D.he is grateful to the many teachers,because the schools are more crucial than his family in how his children are getting on
67.The fourth paragraph is mainly developedC.
A.by contrast  
B.by space  
C.by example 
D.by process
68.What attitude does the writer hold towards spending thousands on moving house?B
A.Positive   
B.Negative  
C.Neutral       
D.Not Clear
69.What is the meaning of the underlined word"hunky dory"in paragraph 5?B
A.broken up
B.satisfactory 
C.departing from the right course 
D.correct
70.What is the main idea of the passage?D
A.estate agents benefit a lot from the struggle to live by the best school gates
B.some parents are going extremes to educate their children better
C.the writer is satisfied with his children's achievement
D.a stable home life is better than catchment areas in educating children.
