I had traveled a long distance from India in order to join my parents, hoping America would help my future. My father decided that I would be better off going to school here, so I enrolled in the local high school in my new town.I had no idea what to do. I didnt know anybody in my class. On the first day, I went to my second class after I had missed my first. I was confused because in India the teachers change according to periods while most of the students have the same periods. With concern on one hand and fear on the other, I reached for the door, opening it slowly. Everyone's eyes were on me as I entered the room. Without paying attention to them, I went straight to the teacher and asked if this was the right class. With a soft voice he answered, "Yes."His voice comforted me a little. He gave me a piece of paper called Course Requirements, which I would never get in my previous school in India because we didnt have anything like that. Then he asked me to choose where I would sit. I chose the seat closest to the door. In India we had our own seats. I spent the rest of the class taking notes from the image（影像）produced by the overhead projector. In Indian schools, we didn't use the technology we had. We had to take notes as the teacher spokeSince it was my first day, I was confused which hallway to use, but I managed to get to my classes without asking anyone, I wasn't quite sure when I would have lunch. When the lunch bell rang, I headed for the cafe. I felt lucky because we didn't have this in India. Every confusion seemed like an obstacle（障碍). I had to get through to reach my goal. At the end of the day, I got on my bus and sat down inside happily. I was thinking, today wasn't so bad. As time passed that year, I developed some friendships and started to love my school. 24. In American school, _.    A. teachers fill out the Course Requirements B. students take notes as the teacher speaksC. teachers change according to periodsD. students can sit as they like25. How did the author feel on the first day of school?   A. Nervous and puzzled.  B. Excited and worried. C. Disappointed and surprised. D. Bored and embarrassed.26. We can infer from the text that the author _ .   A. developed a friendship on the first day   B. got used to the new school life at last   C. thought badly of the first period class     D. liked the bus system in America27. Which of the following can be the beat title for the text ? A. My New Teacher in America.  B. My New School Life in America.   C. The Development of Education in India  D. The Differences Between American and Indian Education. CPeople often ask which is the most difficult language to learn, and it is not easy to answer because there are many factors to take into consideration. Firstly, in a first language the differences are unimportant as people learn their mother tongue naturally, so the question of how hard a language is to learn is only relevant when learning a second language.A native speaker of Spanish, for example, will find Portuguese much easier to learn than a native speaker of Chinese, because Portuguese is very similar to Spanish, while Chinese is very different, so first language can influence learning a second language. The greater the differences between the second language and our first, the harder it will be for most people to learn. Many people answer that Chinese is the hardest language to learn, possibly influenced by the thought of learning the Chinese writing system, and the pronunciation of Chinese does appear to be very difficult for many foreign learners. However, for Japanese speakers, who already use Chinese characters in their own language, learning writing will be less difficult than for speakers of language using the Roman alphabet(字母).Some people seem to learn languages easily, while others find it very difficult. Teachers and the circumstances(环境) in which the language is learned also play an important role, as well as each learners purpose for learning. If people learn a language because they need to use it in work, they often learn it faster than people studying a language that has no direct use in their day to day life.No language is easy to learn well, though languages which are related to our first language are easier. Learning a completely different writing system is a huge challenge, but that does not necessarily make a language more difficult than another. In the end, It is impossible to say that there is one language that is the most difficult language in the world.28The example of Portuguese and Chinese is used to prove that_. AChinese is harder to learn than Portuguese BChinese and Portuguese are very different CPortuguese is very easy for foreigners to learn DFirst language can influence learning a second language29. What does the underlined word “relevant” in Para.1 mean?ADifficult BMeaningful CNecessary DEasy30Why do many people think Chinese is hard to learn?AIts writing system is strange. BIts pronunciation is changeable.CIts characters are difficult to understand. DIt has great differences from many other languages.31What can we learn from the text?APeople will learn a language faster if they use it daily. BThere are many languages that are the most difficult in the world.CAll the languages can be easy to learn with good teachers and circumstances.DThe writing system is difficult to master than the pronunciation of all languages.D Have you ever had trouble trying to choose a gift? Perhaps you need a birthday present for someone who is hard to please. How about clothing? You might be worried about choosing the wrong size, color or style. Books or DVDs ? You may not know enough about the persons likes, dislikes and interests. And giving money may not seem right. Well, how about a gift card?A gift card is a card that is issued (发行) by a certain store. Its worth a certain amount of money. It looks like a credit card, but it actually works like cash. A gift-card holder can spend the amount of money noted on the card in the store that issued it. These cards are big money makers. One reason is that when gift-card holders go to the store, they often see other things to buy, and they end up spending more money than the gift card is worth. Unused cards are another big source of revenue (收益).Gift cards are becoming very popular in many countries around the world. Why? People love the convenience-cards are easy to buy and easy to use, either in the store or on line. The receiver can select his or her own gift, and the giver doesnt have to worry about the finding just the right thing.Receiving a gift card, however, is not the same as receiving a gift. An actual gift is a better reminder of the person who gave it. It helps us appreciate the thought and the effort that went to the choice. The message of a real gift is more to be, “I spent some time trying to find the right gift for you because I care about you.”Often a gift card doesnt pass on the message as an actual gift. It may seem to say, “I was in a hurry. I didnt have time to think about what you really like.” In todays busy world, gift cards are certainly convenient. However, they can make us forget the real purpose of giving gifts, which is to build a closer bond between the gift-giver and the gift-receiver.32. The first paragraph is used to _.A. introduce the main topic B. show the authors attitude C. describe how to choose a gift D. explain how to use a gift card 33. What do we know about gift cards?A. They are the same as credit cards. B. They help stores earn much money. C.They bring more customers to stores. D. They are worth more money than they cost. 34. Whats the advantage of giving an actual gift?A. It is appreciated by the receivers. B. It reminds people of their interests. C. It shows the givers thought and effort. D. It passes on more messages about the receivers. 35. The last paragraph mainly talks about _.A. the relationship between the gift-giver and gift-receiverB. the bond between gift cards and actual giftsC. the real purpose of giving gifts D. the disadvantage of gift cards第二节 （共5小题；每小题1.5分，满分7.5分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。A long and healthy life Everyone wants to be healthy and live a long time. 36 Some years ago, a 90-year-old American writer gave some advice for a long and healthy life: Believe in yourself. Keep your mind active. Be positive(乐观的). Love people and enjoy helping others.The women of Okinawa, in Japan, are another great example. 37 Their secret? They exercise every day, they dont have much stress in their lives, and, in general, they are positive and active.But of course, diet is important, too. 38 They eat some meat, but they dont eat any fat from the meat. And they eat seaweed. This is good for your heart. The Mediterranean diet is very healthy, too. It includes vegetables, tomatoes, fish, beans, cheese and rice. 39 It comes from olive oil and from fish.So, what do these two diets tell us? Dont eat any bad fats - like fats in sweets, fried food and meat. Eat healthy vegetables
