When I was in primary school, sometimes I would meet a girl of the same age as me. Lisa was never active, but she was always very sweet and nice. In the 5th grade she came to my class.

She was absent(缺席) a lot , and one day I had the courage to ask why. She told me she was sick, and she explained she wore a wig(假發(fā)) because her medicine made her lose her hair. We left it at that. Anytime Lisa came to class—seldom—I would hang around with her on the playground.

I received much ridicule (嘲笑) from my friends for this because they thought I was ignoring them for Lisa. My family education taught me to be nice, and I felt Lisa’s needs were much more important than others I knew.

It had been months since Lisa was in our class, and one day our teacher was crying. She explained Lisa died the day before and would no longer be our classmate. She told us Lisa had fought a battle (斗爭)with cancer for years.

I was shocked. Lisa never spoke of her illness as if it could kill her. Well, all these years I have kept Lisa in my mind and heart. When I go through the important events in my life, I think of Lisa.

I’ve had a strong wish recently to find her mother and father. I’d like to tell them that though they never met me, their daughter had a sweet effect on my life. I have no idea what her parents’ first names are. I write to your column (欄目)and hope you can point me in the right direction.

Lisa was such a lovely girl. Maybe her parents would be comforted by the fact that after all these years they are not the only ones who remember her.

The underlined sentence in Para 2 probably means ________________.

A. we kept on talking about her illness later

B. we discussed the topic and then left together

C. we just stopped talking about her illness

D. we went away after talking about her illness

Why was the author being laughed at?

A. Because she wore a wig to school.            B. Because she always played with Lisa.

C. Because she cried in the classroom.       D. Because she lost her friends because of Lisa.

What did the author learn from Lisa?

A. To keep your illness a secret.                    B. To be nice to everyone everywhere.

C. To face challenges in life bravely.             D. To put others’ needs above yours.

The author wrote this passage mainly to __________.

A. remember a true friend                B. ask for help to find a friend’s parents

C. show her concern for a friend           D. tell her experience of fighting cancer

    I am a writer. I spend a great deal of my time thinking about the power of language―the way it can evoke(喚起) an emotion, a visual image, a complex idea, or a simple truth. Language is the tool of my trade. And I use them all―all the Englishes I grew up with.

    Born into a Chinese family that had recently arrived in California, I’ve been giving more thought to the kind of English my mother speaks. Like others, I have described it to people as “broken” English. But feel embarrassed to say that. It has always bothered me that I can think of no way to describe it other than “broken”, as if it were damaged and needed to be fixed, as if it lacked a certain wholeness. I’ve heard other terms used, “l(fā)imited English,” for example. But they seem just as bad, as if everything is limited, including people’s perceptions(認(rèn)識)of the limited English speaker.

    I know this for a fact, because when I was growing up, my mother’s “l(fā)imited” English limited my perception of her. I was ashamed of her English. I believed that her English reflected the quality of what she had to say. That is ,because she expressed them imperfectly her thoughts were imperfect. And I had plenty of evidence to support me: the fact that people in department stores, at banks, and at restaurants did not take her seriously, did not give her good service, pretended not to understand her, or even acted as if they did not hear her.

    I started writing fiction in 1985. And for reasons I won’t get into today, I began to write stories using all the Englishes I grew up with: the English she used with me, which for lack of a better term might be described as “broken”, and what I imagine to be her translation of her Chinese, her internal(內(nèi)在的) language, and for that I sought to preserve the essence, but neither an English nor a Chinese structure: I wanted to catch what language ability tests can never show; her intention, her feelings, the rhythms of her speech and the nature of her thoughts.

 

   41. By saying “Language is the tool of my trade”, the author means that ______.

      A. she uses English in foreign trade

      B. she is fascinated by languages

      C. she works as a translator

      D. she is a writer by profession

   42. The author used to think of her mother’s English as ______.

      A. impolite

      B. amusing

      C. imperfect

      D. practical

   43. Which of the following is TRUE according to Paragraph 3?

      A. Americans do not understand broken English.

      B. The author’s mother was not respected sometimes.

      C. The author’ mother had positive influence on her.

      D. Broken English always reflects imperfect thoughts.

   44. The author gradually realizes her mother’s English is _____.

      A. well structured

      B. in the old style

      C. easy to translate

      D. rich in meaning

    45. What is the passage mainly about?

      A. The changes of the author’s attitude to her mother’s English.

      B. The limitation of the author’s perception of her mother.

      C. The author’s misunderstanding of “l(fā)imited” English.

      D. The author’s experiences of using broken English.

 “In only six days I lost seven pounds of weight.”

“Two full inches in the first three days!”

These are the kinds of statements used in magazine, newspaper, radio and television ads, promising new shapes and new looks to those who buy the medicine or the device (設(shè)備；裝置). The promoters (推銷員；促銷員) of products say they can shape the legs, slim the face, smooth wrinkles, or in some other way to beauty or desirability.  

Often such products are nothing more than money--making things for their promoter. The results they produce are questionable, and some are dangerous to health.  

To understand how these products can be legally promoted to the public, it is necessary to understand something of the laws covering their regulation (條例). If the product is a drug, FDA（Food Drug Administration） can require proof （證明）under the Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act that is safe and effective before it is put on the market . But if the product is a device, FDA. has no author to require premarketing proof of safety or effectiveness. If a product already on the marker is a danger to health, FDA can request the producer or distributor to remove it from the market voluntarily, or it can take legal action , including seizure （查封） of the product.  

One notable case a few years ago involved an electrical device called the Relaxacisor, which had been sold for reducing the waistline. The Relaxacisor produced electrical shocks to the body through contact pads. FDA took legal action against the distributor to stop the sale of the device  on the grounds that it was dangerous to health and life.  

Obviously, most of the devices on the market have never been the subject of court proceedings（法律訴訟）,and new devices appear continually. Before buying, it is up to the consumer to judge the safety or effectiveness of such items.  

1.It can be inferred that ads mentioned in the text are ______.  

A．objective

B．costly

C．unreliable (不可靠的 )

D．illegal

2.Which of the following is true according to the text?

A. The court is in charge of removing dangerous product.  

B. New products are more likely to be questionable.  

C. The production of a device must be approved by FDA.  

D. The promoters usually just care about profits.  

3. FDA can ask for the proof of safety and effectiveness of a product ________.  

A．if it is a drug

B．if it is a device

C．if its consumers make complaints

D．if its distributors challenge FDA’s authority

4.The Relaxacisor is mentioned as_______.  

A．a(chǎn) product which was designed to produce electricity

B．a(chǎn) product whose distributor (批發(fā)商；批發(fā)公司) was involved in a legal case

C．a(chǎn) successful advertisement of a beauty product

D．a(chǎn)n example of a quality beauty product

5.The author intends to __________

A. make consumers aware of the promoters’ false promises

B. show the weakness of the law on product safety

C. give advice on how to keep young and beautiful

D. introduce the organization of FDA.

第三部分：閱讀理解（共20小題；每小題2分，滿分40分）

閱讀下列短文，從每題所給的四個選項（A、B、C和D）中，選出最佳選項。

When I worked in Swaziland, one day we went to an orphanage （孤兒院）．There we found a beautiful little girl named Tanzile．I gave her a sweet and she said something back to me in Si-swati, which the nurse next to me translated, “She wants another one — to give to her little sister．” I said “of course”．When we were going to leave, we passed by Tanzile’s house to say goodbye．To our surprise she seemed to be holding on to that extra sweet I had given her．I remember saying to the nurse “this little darling is clever — she has taken two for herself．”

But the nurse told us, “Tanzile is 7 now．Two years ago her mum and dad both died of AIDS．She was separated from her sister who was three at the time．Tanzile has not laid eyes on her since．But from then on whenever Tanzile receives anything from anyone, including food — she refuses to accept it, unless they give her two．” In fact, in the little mud hut where she lives, we find a pile of old things which she has been collecting to give to her sister one day．

People sometimes look at faces of African children and think that they are somehow different from our kids — that somehow they don’t feel pain or love．But that is not true．Their pain is deep．And so is their love．I can still remember the nurse trying to convince her that “if someone gives you food, you must accept it — even if it is only one piece and not two — for your own health．” And it was so hard for us to keep the tears from our eyes as she shook her head．Her hope and her love was all that she had．It mattered more than anything else．When I returned home that day, I was shocked to find that this was not an isolated story but others in the hospital knew of orphans just like Tanzile — waiting with a little pile of things in their hut, for their lovers who they haven’t seen so long．

I think of that old song — “when we’re hungry, love will keep us alive．”

56．From the passage we can learn Tanzile       ．

A．is very clever                         B．knows her sister has died

C．has stored a lot for her sister          D．doesn’t like sweets

57．How old was her sister when the author met with Tanzile?

A．Three years old．          B．Four years old．

C．Five years old．            D．Six years old．

58．What has the author learned from her experience in Africa?

A．Love is more important in life than anything else．

B．African children are different in a way．

C．African children should be treated fairly．

D．We should express our love in time．

59．The best title for the passage would be        ．

A．Give every child two sweets       B．Tanzile’s love for her sister

C．One for my sister              D．Change your attitude to African children
