A
I like this job, in which I stay with small children and from which I get the challenges and awards. I also think my work is important. There was a time when I thought I would never have that sort of career.
I wasn’t an excellent student because I didn’t do much schoolwork. In my final term I started thinking what I might do and found I didn’t have much to offer. I just accepted that I wasn’t the type to have a career.
I then found myself a job. Looking after two little girls, it wasn’t too bad at first. But the problems began when I agreed to live in, so that I would be there if my boss had to go out for business in the evening. We agreed that if I had to work extra hours one week, she’d give me time off the next. But unfortunately, it didn’t often work out. I was getting extremely tired and fed up, because I had too many late nights and early mornings with the children.
One Sunday, I was in the park with the children, and met Megan who used to go to school with me, I told her about my situation. She suggested that I should do a course and get a qualification if I wanted to work with children. I didn’t think I would be accepted because I didn’t take many exams in school. She persuaded me to phone the local college and they were really helpful. My experience counted for a lot and I got on a part – time course. I had to leave my job with the family, and got work helping out at a kindergarten.
Now I’ve got a full – time job there. I shall always be thankful to Megan. Iwish I had known earlier that you could have a career, even if you aren’t top of the class at school.
21.When staying with the two girls’ family, the author______ .
A.got much help from her boss B.was paid for extra work
C.often worked long hours D.took a day off every other week
22.Why did the author leave her first job?
A.She needed a rest after working extra hours.
B.She decided to attend a part – time course.
C.She was fed up with children.
D.She found a full – time job.
23.What has the author learned from her own experiences?
A.One must choose the job she likes.
B.Hard work makes an excellent student.
C.Less successful students can still have a career.
D.Qualifications are necessary for a career.
B
My Left Foot (1989)
Imagine being a prisoner of your own body, unable to make any movements except to move your left foot. The main character in My Left Foot,based on the real story of cerebral palsy (大脑性麻痹) sufferer Christy Brown,can barely move his mouth to speak, but by controlling his left foot, he’s able to express himself as an artist and poet. For his moving performance of Brown, Daniel Lewis won his first Academy Award for best actor.
Shine (1996)
Do you have a talent you’re afraid to share with the world? David Helfgott seemed meant from childhood to be “one of the truly great pianists,” but the pressures of performing (and pleasing his father) resulted in a complete breakdown. Ten years in a mental institution didn’t weaken Helfgott’s musical gift: When he was rediscovered, he was playing concertos in a bar. Shine received seven Oscar nominations (提名), and Geoffrey Rush won best actor for his performance of Helfgott.
Life Is Beautiful (1997)
Nothing’s more powerful than the love between a parent and a child. In this heartbreaking Italian film, a father (Roberto Benigni) makes an unbelievable sacrifice for his 4-year-old son: trapped in a Nazi concentration camp in 1945, the Jewish man convinces his boy that they are playing a complicated game. He manages to spare him the horror of the terrible war, and even in his final moments of life, keeps his son smiling and hopeful. Benigni won the best actor Oscar.
Stand and Deliver (1988)
Few people can inspire us more than a good teacher. Jaime Escalante (Edward James Olmos got Oscar nomination for best actor) is a great one. Employed at a high school where kids are expected to fail, Escalante challenges his math students to struggle for better things, like getting good grades in the AP exam. Despite the obstacles in their lives, the classmates accomplish their goals, thanks to Mr. Escalante’s support. The real Jaime Escalante, the Best Teacher in America, says that Stand and Deliver is “90% truth, 10% drama.”
24. The underlined part in the passage means _________.
A. The main character in My Left Foot can’t control his whole body
B. The main character in My Left Foot is trapped by others
C. The main character in My Left Foot is a prisoner
D. The main character in My Left Foot is a disabled person
25. If you want to watch a movie about wars, which may be one of your choices?

A. My Left Foot was directed by Christy Brown’s
B. Geoffrey Rush stayed in a mental institution for ten years
C. Edward James Olmos received nomination for best actor Oscar
D. Jaime Escalante has a talent for playing the piano
27. What do the four movies have in common?
A. They are all based on real stories.
B. The main characters are all sick to some degree but succeed.
C. The main characters all won Academy Award for Best Actor.
D. They are all inspiring stories that make a difference.
C
It’s roughly estimated that there are 450 million disabled people in the world. No one knows exactly how many disabled people there are in the world.The number of disabled people in India alone is probably more than double the total population of Canada.
In the United Kingdom, about one in ten people have some disability. Disability is not just something that happens to other people: as we get older, many of us will become less mobile, hard of hearing or have failing eyesight.
Disablement can take many forms and occur at any time of life. Some people are born with disabilities. Many others become disabled as they get older. There are many progressive disabling diseases. The longer time goes on, the worse they become. Some people are disabled in accidents. Many others may have a period of disability in the form of a mental illness. All are affected by people‘s attitude towards them.
Disabled people face many physical barriers. Next time you go shopping or to work or visit friends, imagine how you would manage if you could not get up steps, or on to buses and trains. How would you cope if you could not see where you were going or could not hear the traffic? But there are other barriers: prejudice can be even harder to break down and ignorance inevitably represents by far the greatest barrier of all. It is almost impossible for the able-bodied to fully appreciate what the severely disabled go through, so it is important to draw attention to these barriers and show that it is the individual person and their ability not their disability that count.
28.The first paragraph points out that______.
A. the number of disabled people in India is the greatest
B. India has much more disabled people than Canada
C. there are many disabled people in the world
D. it is impossible to get an exact figure of the world‘s disabled people
29.The last word of the passage 'count' most probably means_____.
A. be numbered B. be included
C. be considered D. be most important
30.Which of the following statements is not true?
A. About 10 percent of people in the UK are disabled.
B. Even the able-bodied may lose some of their body functions when they get older.
C. There still exists prejudice against the disabled which results mainly from ignorance
D. The whole society should pay due attention to the barriers faced by the disabled people
31.It can be concluded from the passage that____.
A. both physical and metal barriers are hard to break down
B. we should take a proper attitude towards the disabled
C. we should try our best to prevent disablement
D. the able-bodies people will never fully understand the disabled
D
If the earth‘s population is in growth at this rate , there will not be enough resources. By the middle of the 21st century, if present trends continue, we will have used up all the oil that drives our cars, for example. Even if scientists develop new ways of feeding the human race, the crowded conditions on the earth will make it necessary for us to look for open space somewhere else. But none of the other planets in our solar system are capable of supporting life at present. One possible solution to the problem, however, has recently been suggested by American scientist, Professor Carl Sagan.
Sagan believes that before the earth‘s resources are completely exhausted it will be possible to change the atmosphere of Venus and so create a new world almost as large as the earth itself. The difficult is that Venus is much hotter than the earth and there is only a tiny amount of water there.
Sagan proposes that algae organisms(海藻有机体) that can live in extremely hot or cold atmospheres and at the same time produce oxygen, should be bred in condition similar to those on Venus. As soon as this has been done, the algae will be placed in small rockets. Spaceship will then fly to Venus and fire the rockets into the atmosphere .In a fairly short time, the algae will break down the carbon dioxide into oxygen and carbon.
When the algae have done their work, the atmosphere will become cooler, but before man can set foot on Venus it will be necessary for the oxygen to produce rain. The surface of the planet will still be too hot for man to land on it but the rain will eventually fall and in a few years something like earth will be reproduced on Venus.
32.In the long run, the most difficult problem caused by population growth on the earth will probably be the lack of ______.
A. oil B. food C. resources D. space
33.Carl Sagan believes that Venus might be a living place because _____
A. the days on Venus are long enough
B. it might be possible to change its atmosphere
C. there is a good supply of water on Venus
D. its atmosphere is the same as the earth‘s
34.Algae are plants that can____.
A. live in very hot temperature B. live in very cold temperature
C. produce oxygen D. all of the above
35. Man can land on Venus only when_______.
A. it rains there
B. there is oxygen
C. the atmosphere becomes cooler
D. the algae have done their work

Dropping into desperation completely, Jack wandered on the streets, knowing he came to the end of life. In his mid-fifties, Jack had never been 41 , experienced the joy of having children or spent holidays with his family.

Meanwhile, I was sitting in my room watching the rain 43 my window. When I heard the doorbell ring, I 44 from my chair and raced out. But my mother was already at the door. Opening it, she found herself face-to-face with a very dirty-looking man with tears streaming down his face. My mother, overcome by 45 ,invited the man inside, and he sat with my parents in our living room.
46 ,1 walked secretly downstairs so that I could get a better look. I couldn‘t understand what they were saying, but the sight of the man, 47 his head in his hands and crying, made my chest ache. I raced back up stairs to my room and 48 my hand into my money jar. Pulling out my only half-dollar coin, I ran back downstairs.
When I reached the door of the living room, I walked right in .The three 49 looked at me in 50 as I quickly made my way over the stranger. I put the half-dollar in his hand and told him that I wanted him to have it. Then I gave him a 51 ,turned and ran as fast as I could out of the room and back upstairs. I felt excited but happy.
Downstairs, Jack sat quietly with his head 52 .Tears streamed down his face as he 53 held that coin. Finally looking up at my parents, he said, 'It’s just that I thought nobody cared. For the last twenty years, I have been so 54 . That is the first hug I have ever got. It’s hard to believe that somebody _55 ”
Jack‘s life changed that night. When he left our house, he was 56 to live instead of die. Although we never saw Jack again, we received letters from him57 , letting us know that he was doing fine.
My life changed that night, too, as I 58 the hug healing power of giving, even if it’s only a gift of fifty cents. Before Jack left, my parents asked him why he had knocked on our door.

I’m glad to hear from you. You ask about my health in your last email. So I’m going to tell you about diet. I’m a very health person. That’s why we live near the sea and we often have fish. I don’t know exactly what my mother will cook for us tonight, and there will probable be fish and vegetables. And of course there will also be some rices. If you come to visit me in China on one day, you won’t eat many sweets. So I hope you don’t have sweet tooth.

Dear Jack,
Thank you for your letter asking about the club activities in our school .These clubs are set up by the Students’ Union and they are intended for students from Grade Two and Grade Three, open after 3 o’clock on Tuesday afternoon.
The club activities, aiming to offer students more opportunities to show their different talents, benefit us a lot. Taking part in club activities can help us to make new friends, expand our circle, and develop interpersonal skills. At the same time, these activities can help us to develop self-confidence, communicating with each other more easily. Besides, we have developed different skills and many interests, which enrich our lives.
In my opinion, I acquire more knowledge in an interesting way. Meanwhile, I bring myself more relaxation after hard study, which reduces my tiredness. |
