15.Peter waved goodbye and closed the door slowly as Jane left home to visit her grandmother.Expecting a whole day to relax,he was thinking whether to read the newspaper or watch his favorite TV talk show on his first day off in months."This will be like a walk in the park,"he'd told his wife,"I'll look after the kids,and you can go to visit your grandma."
Things started well,but just after eight o'clock,his three little"good kids"-Adam,Bob,and Christopher-came down the stairs in their night clothes and shouted"breakfast,daddy."When food had not appeared within thirty seconds,Adam began using his spoon on Christopher's head as if it were a drum.Christopher started to shout loudly in time to the beat (節(jié)拍).Bob chanted"Where's my toast,where's my toast"in the background.Peter realized his newspaper would have to wait for a few seconds.
Life became worse after breakfast.Adam wore Bob's underwear on his head.Bob locked himself in the bathroom,while Christopher shouted again because he was going to wet his pants.Nobody could find clean socks,although they were before their very eyes.Someone named"Not Me"had spilled a whole glass of orange juice into the basket of clean clothes.Peter knew the talk show had already started.
By ten o'clock,things were out of control.Christopher was wondering why the fish in the jar refused his bread and butter.Adam was trying to show off his talent by decorating the kitchen wall with his color pencils.Bob,thankfully,appeared to be reading quietly in the family room,but closer examination showed that he was eating apple jam straight from the bottle with his hands.Peter realized that the talk show was over and reading would be impossible.
At exactly 11:17,Peter called the daycare centre (日托所)."I suddenly have to go into work and my wife's away.Can I bring the boys over in a few minutes?"The answer was obviously"yes"because Peter was smiling.

21.When his wife left home,Peter expected toA.
A.have a relaxing day without pressure
B.enjoy his first day off work in weeks
C.watch TV talk show with his children

A.Using his spoon on Christopher's head.
B.Wearing his underwear on his head
C.Reading quietly in the family room.
D.Eating apple jam from the bottle.
23.Why did Peter ask the daycare centre for help?D
A.Because he had to pick up his wife back home.
B.Because he found it hard to kill the time home.
C.Because he wanted to go to his office to work.
D.Because he found it hard to look after his boys.
24.This text is developedA.

3.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 80% of human illness is related to food and 40% 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(添加劑)caused cancer.
Yet,these additives remain in our food,and it is difficult to know which things on the wrappings(包裝)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.

A.We needn't take care of what we eat.
B.Some wrappings of food are harmful.

10.One of the qualities that most people admire in others is the willingness to admit one's mistakes.It is extremely hard sometimes to say a simple thing like"I was wrong about that,"and it is even harder to say,"I was wrong,and you were right about that."
I had an experience recently with someone admitting to me that he had made a mistake fifteen years ago.He told me he had been the manager of a certain store in the neighborhood where I grew up,and he asked me if I remembered the egg cartons (in many countries,eggs are sold by the dozen and are put in cartons.) Then he related an incident (event,matter) and I began to remember unclearly the incident he was describing.
I was about eight years old at the time.I went into the store with my mother to do some shopping.On that particular day,I must have found my way to the food department where the incident took place.
There must have been a special sale on eggs that day because there were lots of eggs in dozen and half-dozen cartons.The cartons were put three or four feet high.I must have stopped in front of the piles of egg cartons.Just then a woman came by pushing her shopping cart and knocked off the cartons.For some reason,I decided it was up to me to put the eggs back together,so I went to work.
The manager heard the noise and came rushing over to see what had happened.When he appeared,I was on my knees looking at some of the cartons to see if any of the eggs were broken,but to him it looked as though I was the one who just did it.He severely reprimanded me and wanted me to pay for any broken eggs.I tried to explain,but it did no good.Even though I quickly forgot all about the incident,it is plain that the manager did not.
5.Which is the correct order of the following?D
a.I forgot all about the incident.
b.I went into the store.
c.A woman knocked off the egg cartons.
d.I stood in front of the egg cartons.
e.The manager reminded me of the incident.
f.The manager didn't believe my explanation.
g.I picked up the unbroken eggs.
A.b; d; g; c; a; f; e   
B.b; d; c; g; f; e; a      
C.b; c; d;g; e; f; a     
D.b; d; c; g; f; a; e
6.The word"reprimanded"in the last paragraph most exactly means"B".
A.frightened         B.scolded          C.warned           D.comforted
7.The best title for this passage should beA.
A.A Case of Mistake                
B.The Manager I Never Forget

7.Cruel truths that help you grow
    You can't always be in control of everything.(36)ABut if you want to continue to grow,you should give up your control on everything.You can still work hard for greatness,but put the work in and then let go.
    You can't accomplish great things without taking great risks.(37)FPeople who truly change the world are the biggest risk takers.They put everything in risk and fail in something they believe in.And they treat each failure as an opportunity to grow and get better.(38)C In life,there's no shortage of doubters,haters and pessimists.Overcoming this cruel truth is simple:don't listen.Choose to stand by yourself,trust your instincts(本能),and forget about people who don't support your goals and passions.
    Death is a part of life.(39)GHowever,there's something you can do to make losing someone you love a lot less painful:make them a part of your life right now.Don't put off making that phone call or paying a visit to a friend or a family member you haven't seen for a while.Treat every moment with your loved ones as if it's your last,and you won't have any regrets.
    You are the only thing holding yourself back from greatness.We always hope for the next great thing but don't realize what happen in front of us.(40)Ehappy right now.

A.Letting go is hard.
B.The first step is always the hardest.
C.Don't hold yourself back with negative thoughts.
D.Not everyone will support you along the way.

F.It's hard for you to get what you want if you don't take risks.
