Two summers ago I went to Changdao, a small island near Yantai. During the night, I heard strange baby-like   31        (cry). Islanders told me   32        was stray (迷路的；離群的) cats that were calling in the wild. Well, it was strange to me to see so many stray cats on such a small island. So I asked the locals  33       more details. Then they told me  34          surprising and sad story. The island is isolated in the sea and originally had no cats. Ten yers ago, when the island was developed   35       a national park, tourists began to swarm in. These visitors from all parts of the country brought in money, but the rubbish they left   36       (draw) more and more rats onto the island. Islanders therefore introduced the cats in order to get rid of the rats.   ___37        when the number of rats decreased, the number of cats increased, and the cats began to prey on birds, chickens, and fish. For more than a month after that, my mind was haunted (回響) by the plaintive crying. So now,   38       I travel, I always hear in mind what I should bring in,   39        I don’t want to bring anything that is strange,   40        (need) or even dangerous to my destination.

第一題：閱讀理解（分兩節(jié)，共5小題，每小題2分，滿分10分）
閱讀下面的短文，并根據(jù)短文后的要求答題。
From good reading we can get pleasure, companionship, experience, and instruction. A good book may absorb our attention so completely that for the time being we forget our surroundings and even our identity.____1___ It increases our contentment when we are cheerful, and lessens our troubles when we are sad. Whatever our main purpose in reading may be, our contact with good books should never fail to give us enjoyment and satisfaction.
___2____ Whether the characters are taken from real life or purely imaginary, they may become our companions and friends. In the pages of books we can walk with the wise and the good of all lands and all times. The people we meet in books may delight us either because they resemble human friends whom we hold dear or because they present unfamiliar types whom we are glad to welcome as new acquaintances. ___3___ By turning the page we can dismiss them without any fear of hurting their feelings. When human friends desert us, good books are always ready to give us friendship, sympathy, and encouragement.
____4____. Few of us can travel far from home or have a wide range of experiences, but all of us can lead varied lives through the pages of books. Whether we wish to escape from the seemingly dull realities of everyday life or whether we long to visit some far-off place, a book will help us when nothing else can. To travel by book we need no bank account to pay our way; no train or airplane to transport us; no passport to enter the land of our hearts’ desire. Through books we may get the excitement of dangerous adventure without danger. We can climb noble mountains, brave the freeze of an Antarctic winter, or cross the extremely hot sands of the desert, all without hardship. In books we may visit the studios of Hollywood; we may mix with the cheerful crowds of the Paris roads; we may join the picturesque peasants in an Alpine village or the kindly natives on a South Sea island. Indeed, through books the whole world is ours for the asking.

閱讀下列短文，從每題所給的四個(gè)選項(xiàng)(A、B、C和D)中，選出最佳選項(xiàng)。
My wife and I used to feel that it was impossible to be a true friend to someone whose name we didn’t know. How wrong we were! Years of Sunday-morning bus trips through the city with the same group of “nameless” people have changed our thinking.?
Before the bus takes off, we all join in a conversation: where’s the silent woman who sits up front and never responds to our cheery greetings? Here she comes. Her worn clothing suggests she doesn’t have much money to spare, but she always takes an extra cup of coffee for the driver.?
We get smiles from a Mexican couple as they get on the bus hand in hand. When they get off, they’re still holding hands. The woman was pregnant late last year, and one day her change of shape confirmed that she’d delivered the child. We even felt a little pride at the thought of our extended family.?
For many months, our only sadness lay in our inability to establish the same friendship with the silent woman at the front of the bus. Then, one evening, we went to a fish restaurant. We were shown to a table alongside someone sitting alone. It was the woman from the bus.?
We greeted her with friendly familiarity we’d shown all year, but this time her face softened, then a shy smile. When she spoke, the words escaped awkwardly from her lips. All at once we realized why she hadn’t spoken to us before. Talking was hard for her.?
Over dinner; we learned the stay of a single mother with a disabled son who was receiving special care away from home. She missed him desperately, she explained.?
“I love him… and he loves me, even though he doesn’t express it very well,” she murmured. “Lots of us have that problem, don’t we? We don’t say what we want to say, what we should be saying. And that’s not good enough.”?
The candles flared on our tables. Our fish had never tasted better. But the atmosphere grew pleasant, and when we parted as friends—we shared names.
56.Which of the following might be the best title of this passage?
Friends of the Road               B. The Silent Woman on the Bus
C. Going to Work by Bus              D. Different Kinds of Friendship
57.All the following statements can describe the woman except ______.
A. poor         B. warm hearted          C. silent        D. cold
58. The underlined word “establish” in the fourth passage probably has the same meaning as ______.
A. keep         B. discover        C. set up         D. accept
59. Why did the woman usually keep silence while taking the bus?
A. She was worried about her disabled son.
B. She was sad to see the happy Mexican couple us a single mother.
C. She had difficulty in expressing herself.   D. She was only interested in the bus driver.
60. The woman had the same problem with her son in the way that ______.
A. they both disabled people   B. they both had some difficulty in expressing
C. they both liked bus travel   D. they both brought interest to the passengers

Situated in the South West of England, between Exeter and Plymouth, Torquay is one of the most popular holiday resorts（度假勝地）in Britain. It provides sophisticated（精致）entertainment, sports of every kind and cultural facilities, all set in a position of outstanding natural beauty. Visitors can choose between luxury hotels by the sea, with private suites（套房），swimming pools and saunas, and comfortable but less expensive guest houses. There are camping sites, too, and hundreds of houses displaying“B & B”signs.
As well as a number of small quiet bays, which are ideal for beach barbecues away from the crowds, Torquay has large sandy beaches where you can buy refreshments（飲料）and hire deck chairs, boats and even beach huts. There are large areas of grassland overlooking the sea, and miles of winding cliff paths for walkers who just want to enjoy the scenery and what is often said to be the healthiest air in the country. For the sportsmen and women there are opportunities not only for golf, tennis, squash and bowls, but also for water-skiing, hang-gliding and deep-sea fishing.
After a day in the open air, there’s lots to do in the evenings, too. There are plenty of discos, the occasional opera or ballet, and summer variety shows in the seafront theatres. For the children, there is a beautiful model village with a complicated railway layout which is remarkably realistic-especially when the lights are all on at night.
Of course, there’s no need to spend your whole holidays in Torquay. Only a short drive away is Dartmoor National Park, where you can walk for miles through dramatic, unspoiled countryside, or picnic by beautiful rivers and streams. Or, nearer to home, you can sail across Tor Bay to the lovely old fishing village of Brixham.
Torquay seems to have something for everyone. But don’t take my word for it-come and see for yourself.
41．Which of the following best explains what “B & B” means on the signs?

Stephen would take my literature lesson. After we introduced ourselves to each other, we talked about what the class would cover and all the things he would learn. It was a course in which he would learn a lot of facts and details in one term. As I talked, I saw Stephen’s eyes getting big with fear.
I told him to do his assignments (作業(yè)) and hand them in on time. I also told him that most successful students made a calendar of all the assignments so they could plan their work load.
As the fall term went by, I learned more of Stephen’s story. He had struggled in school. It had taken him longer to finish than most young people. Family members, including his mother, kept reminding him that he was a failure. But he kept at it. He told me that before coming to our school, no one had believed he had much potential (潛力).
Stephen didn’t become an “A” student. His name didn’t appear on any honors list. One reason was that he never did real well on tests. Still, he managed to pass most of his courses by being in class every day, turning in all of his assignments on time and breaking down his studying into bite-sized digestible portions (易理解的部分). By passing course after course he began to gain a measure of self-esteem (自尊). He was a great singer and he was on the school’s cross-country team.
Every time I saw him at school he would say, “One bite at a time.” His secret, he said, was that he was practicing what I taught him before classes ever started: “Take it one bite at a time.”
On graduation day, he said with a bright smile, “One bite at a time.”
65. Before Stephen began his class, _____.
A. the author had known him for a long time
B. the author told him something about his lessons
C. he was confident about his studies
D. he made a study plan
66. From the passage we can know that Stephen’s family _____.
A. kept encouraging him to continue his studies
B. thought he had much potential to study well
C. didn’t think he would do well at school
D. thought it would take him more time to study than others
67. What do we know about Stephen?
A. He was honored for his good results.    
B. He didn’t do anything except study.
C. He only broke down his literature lesson into bite-sized portions.
D. He tried his best to pass his courses.
68. Which of the following can best describe Stephen’s story?
A. Nothing is difficult to a willing heart.
B. A friend in need is a friend indeed.
C. Well begun, half done.
D. Failure is the mother of success.

After 10 seasons wearing the No．8 on his back，Kobe Bryant will become No．24 next season．The reason for the surprising decision by the Los Angeles Lakers super guard last week has become a hot topic for debate．
Bryant wore No．24 when he was in early high school，but he changed to No．33 in his senior year．He switched to No．8 when he was selected by the Lakers in 1996，and has not been changed since．
Bryant has refused to explain the decision until the end of the play-offs．So guessing Bryant’s motive has become a popular game among NBA fans and newspaper columnists．
There are all kinds of speculations（猜測(cè)）．Many say that Bryant wants to leave the past behind and have a fresh start．He has often been criticized for phying to benefit himself and not the team as a whole．Others say that he may be trying to compare himself to Michael Jordan．Jordan was famous for his No．23 jersey（運(yùn)動(dòng)衫）．Some，such as NBC Sport columnist Michael Ventre，argue that it is“all about money”．Bryant will make more money by selling new jerseys to his fans．
Some speculations are more about fun．For example，there is an opinion that Kobe is actually just a diehard fan of the popular TV drama“24”．
All this talk has turned the number change into a major issue．It seems that there is a lot of fuss over something that should be pretty simple．
Jersey numhers have their own special significance in American sports，especially basketball．
Players choose their number when they join a team and they usually stick with that number for the rest of their career．When a great player retires，his team will honor him by retiring his number．
To some extent，the jersey is the player，and the player is the jersey．Thus，when you see the famous No．23 for the Chicago Bulls，you immediately think about Michael Jordan．A No．32 Miami Heats jersey recalls the image of Shaquille O’Neal，and the Houston Rockets’No．11 belongs only to Yao Ming．
56．Which team has Bryant played for?
A．The Los Angeles Lakers．         B．The Houston Rockets．
C．The Chicago Bulls．               D．The Miami Heats．
57．Bryant has worn No 8________?
A．for two years and a half             B．for ten years
C．since he entered high school         D．since he left high school
58．Which of the following is NOT a speculation about Bryant’s motive to change his number?
A．He wants to leave his past behind and have a fresh start．
B．He wants to compare himself to Jordan．
C．He wants to earn more money．
D．He wants to show that he is a man of great importance．
59．What can we learn from the last paragraph?
A．When a great player retires，his team will reward him with much money．
B．A lucky number will be passed on to a new player．
C．An outstanding player’s jersey number won’t be used after his retirement．
D．A great player often changes his jersey number in the same team
