第三节．阅读理解
A
    Heather Jack and her family, including her two children, usually spend the Christmas holidays preparing a feast—for others to eat. Last Christmas Eve, they went to a house in the neighborhood and prepared a dinner for an elderly woman and her son, who has muscular dystrophy（肌肉萎缩症）. They stayed for an hour and chatted before heading home to prepare for a visit from Santa (圣诞老人). 
   “I think it is that kind of direct experience that many find so meaningful,” says Heather, president and founder of The Volunteer Family, a Boston-based organization dedicated to matching families with volunteer opportunities, both during the holidays and year-round. “It’s a great way for parents to involve the kids.”
In a holiday season that stretches from before Thanksgiving to just after the New Year, it’s nice to hear stories about people with their children giving instead of receiving. Last December Gary and Debra Danoff and their two teenage sons drove to the Washington, D. C. Jewish Community Center（JCC） and spent Christmas morning in the Center’s kitchen preparing a feast for homeless shelters. 
    By choosing to prepare meals for the homeless, the Danoffs bring together a belief in community service with their love of cooking, “It feels good to prepare food with our kids for other people at Christmas,” says Gary. “We want them to know that many people don’t have the ability to go to the supermarket and pick the foods they want to eat and pay for them.”[]
   The Danoffs were in good company. Across the city, at least 1000 volunteers with their children went across the region to provide food to the poor people as part of the D. C. JCC’s annual “December 25th Day of Service”, now in its 22nd year. 

41. The Heathers did all the following things except          last Christmas Eve.

C. making preparations for their own Christmas festival
D. visiting one of their good friends in other district00001.

42. What does “The Volunteer Family” do?   

A. It matches families with volunteer opportunities. 
B. It supplies food and service to the poor families. 
C. It encourages parents to involve their kids in volunteer work. 
D. It earns much money by organizing volunteer families. 
43. Why do the Danoffs want their children to join in the volunteer work?   
A. To let them learn to prepare meals by themselves. 
B. To let them know that many people are in need of help.
C. To let them know that they have the ability to cook. 
D. To let them have a meaningful Christmas with the homeless shelters. 
44. What does the sentence “The Danoffs were in good company” mean in the last paragraph?  
A. Mr. Danoff and his wife work for a very good company. 
B. More volunteer families prepare food for poor people at Christmas. 
C. The volunteer families should have jobs in good companies.
D. The Danoffs are in good luck to get the volunteer opportunity. 
45. What can be learned from the passage?  
A. Volunteers seldom involve their children in the work. 

B. Volunteer opportunities can only be got during holidays.
C. Most people love to hear stories about giving and receiving.
D. The volunteer programs in the D. C. JCC’s have lasted for 22 years.                          

B
    In the mid-1950s, I was a somewhat bored early-adolescent male student who believed that doing any more than necessary was wasted effort. One day, this approach threw me into embarrassment
    In Mrs. Totten’s eighth-grade math class at Central Avenue School in Anderson, Indiana, we were learning to add and subtract decimals (小数).
Our teacher typically assigned daily homework, which would be recited in class the following day. On most days, our grades were based on our oral answer to homework questions.
Mrs. Totten usually walked up and down the rows of desks requesting answers from student after student in the order the questions had appeared on our homework sheets. She would start either at the front or the back of the classroom and walk toward the other end.
Since I was seated near the middle of about 35 students, it was easy to figure out which questions I might have to answer. This particular time, I had completed my usual two or three problems according to my calculations.
   What I failed to expect was that several students were absent, which threw off my estimate. As Mrs. Totten made her way from the beginning of the class，I desperately tried to determine which math problem I would get. I tried to work it out before she got to me, but I had brain freeze and couldn’t function.
When Mrs. Totten reached my desk，she asked what answer I’d got for problem No. 14. “I…I didn’t get anything,”  I answered，and my face felt warm. 
“Correct,” she said.     www.sdzxlm.com
   It turned out that the correct answer was zero.
   What did I learn that day? First, always do all your homework. Second, in real life it isn’t always what you say but how you say it that matters. Third，I would never make it as a mathematician.
   If I could choose one school day that taught me the most, it would be that one.
46. What does the underlined part in Paragraph 1 indicate?
A. It is wise to value one’s time.
B. It is important to make an effort
C. It is right to stick to one’s belief.
D. It is enough to do the necessary.
47. Usually, Mrs. Totten asked her students to _______.
A.  recite their homework together
B. grade their homework themselves
C. answer their homework questions orally
D. check the answers to their homework questions
48. The author could work out which questions to answer since the teacher always _______.
A. asked questions in a regular way
B. walked up and down when asking questions
C. chose two or three questions for the students
D. requested her students to finish their usual questions
49. The author failed to get the questions he had expected because _______.
A. the class didn’t begin as usual
B. several students didn’t come to school
C. he didn’t try hard to make his estimate
D. Mrs. Totten didn’t start from the back of the class
50，Which of the following can be the best title for the passage?
A. An Unforgettable Teacher
B. A Future Mathematician
C. An Effective Approach
D. A Valuable Lesson

C                        
    Larry was on another of his underwater expeditions(探险)but this time, it was different. He decided to take his daughter along with him. She was only ten years old. This would be her first trip with her father on what he had always been famous for.
    Larry first began diving when he was his daughter’s age. Similarly, his father had taken him along on one of his expeditions. Since then, he had never looked back. Larry started out by renting diving suits from the small diving shop just along the shore. He had hated them. They were either too big or too small. Then, there was the instructor. He gave him a short lesson before allowing him into the water with his father. He had made an exception. Larry would never have been able to go down without at least five hours of theory and another similar number of hours on practical lessons with a guide. Children at his age were not even allowed to dive.
After the first expedition, Larry’s later diving adventures only got better and better. There was never a dull moment. In his black and blue suit and with an oxygen tank fastened on his back, Larry dived from boats into the middle of the ocean. Dangerous areas did not prevent him from continuing his search. Sometimes, he was limited to a cage underwater but that did not bother him. At least, he was still able to take photographs of the underwater creatures.
    Larry’s first expedition without his father was in the Cayman Islands. There were numerous diving spots in the area and Larry was determined to visit all of them .Fortunaly for him, a man offered to take him around the different spots for free. Larry didn’t even know what the time was how many spots he dived into or how many photographs he had taken. The diving spots afforded such a wide range of fish and sea creatures that Larry saw more than thirty varieties of creatures.
    Larry looked at his daughter. She looked as excited as he had been when he was her age. He hoped she would be able to continue the family tradition. Already, she looked like she was much braver than had been then. This was the key to a successful underwater expedition.
51.In what way was this expedition different for Larry?
A.His daughter had grown up.
B.He had become a famous diver.
C.His father would dive with him.

D.His daughter would dive with him.
52.What can be inferred from Paragraph2?
A.Larry had some privileges.
B. Larry liked the rented diving suits.
C.Divers had to buy diving equipment.
D.Ten-year-old children were permitted to dive.
53.Why did Larry have to stay in a cage underwater sometimes?
A.To protect himself from danger.
B.To dive into the deep water.
C.To admire the underwater view.
D.To take photo more conveniently.
54.What can be learned from the underlined sentence?
A.Larry didn’t wear a watch.
B. Larry was not good at math.
C. Larry had a poor memory.
D. Larry enjoyed the adventure.
55.What did Larry expect his daughter to do?
A.Become a successful diver.

    Sports and amusing activities have given benefits to people. Besides the entertainment that they offer, health, emotional and personal aspects have also been developed through sports and amusement. It's amazing how one can say that he just found his purpose in life through sports. Some people may even devote their lives to a certain sport. Whether being seen as an amusing activity, a pastime娱乐 or a way of life, sports and amusement are worthy of everyone's praise.
    A large number of sports and amusing activities have become very popular both in the past years and at present, such as baseball, basketball, golf, computer and online games, fitness, motor sports, tennis, and so on.
    Computer and online games have become very popular at this age. Young people are mostly the fans of this amusement. Entertainment is what it gives. A lot of online games are there to be played. Some are for sale while others can be downloaded for free.
    Fitness is in much the same rank. Women are the major customers who take this activity into their lives. The goal for reshaping their bodies to improve their looks is getting more and more attractive. Considering the lovely points of being healthy and fit, all seem to hash through the lines. No one wants to get behind. This is also a way of giving love to ourselves.
    We cannot always pass money by. Taking sports or amusement, you'll have to pay for it sometimes. The cost for learning and enjoying sports changes from one to another. Some sports cost very little while others are costly due to expensive equipment and tools to use.[]

[1]I was one of the taller memebers of my class, standing a head above the other girls and bent down at the back of the line to avoid sticking out. I especially hated to hear people say,”Ruthie!Look how tall you’re getting!” But my grandfather would always tell me ,“Stand straight and tall,” Later I understood his advice was about more than just height.
[2] My grandfather grew up in war-torn Europe. When German soldiers occupied his hometown, the beautiful city of Tarnow, Poland, he fought for his country’s freedom.” Stand straight, stand tall,” meant something else back then.
[3]After the war ,he boarded a boat for America, arriving in Manhattan. All alone in a new country, he was frightened about his future. Still, he marched head-on into the streets of New York. Soon he met other European immigrants, each of them trying to find his or her own way. If they could do it, why couldn’t he?” Stand straight, stand tall,” he would remind himself.
[4]__________ the help of a loyal and trusting friend, my grandfather acquired a jewelry stand on Canal Street. He once told me how nervous he was on that first day of work. He was not only trying to learn this tough new business, but also a new language.
[5]To his surprise, the men in the neighboring stands —who could have taken advantage of him—offered their help and advice. Within months, my grandfather was commanding his spot behind the counter, selling diamonds and all kinds of cultured pearls as if he’d been doing it his whole life.
[6]I trusted my grandfather more than anyone else in my childhood. And whenever I was afraid of something, he would tell me stories of his life. My grandfather’s remarkable experiences have changed the way I view my own life. His advice tells me to be proud of who I am.

第三节   写作（参考范文）
Dear Li Hua,
   I am glad to know you are enjoying yourself in the USA. As for the family dinner, I’d like to give you the following advice. 
   As you are invited to a formal dinner party, dressing smartly and tidily is necessary. It would be better if you are punctual. Generally speaking,there is no need to bring gifts. If you would like to bring something, a bottle of wine or a box of cookies will be OK. American people care about table manners a lot, so do remember to mind your manners at table. Never should you drink too much or make loud noise. After dinner, it would be better not to stay there too long. Before you say goodbye to the host and hostess, do not forget to express your gratitude to their generous hospitality. 
   All the best. 
 Yours sincerely,
   Tom.
