Standing in the driveway, I watched my grown children drive off into the distance. I looked down the road until I could no longer see their 36 .
“They live too far away from me,” I said to myself.“When did they 37 and become parents of small children 38 that be me”
I slipped back inside the house and just walked through the rooms for no reason 39 . I was just missing them already and looking for 40 of their having been here. There were pillows on the floor and a few stuffed (填充）animals 41 around where the children had been playing.
I walked into the 42 and there on the back of the sink was a bottle brush that had been left behind. “Ah, even Tessa left something behind,” I 43 . Well, I suppose she had help 44 she was just four months old.
As I walked around the house, I picked up a few more 45 on the floor — Tegan’s tooth, a pie pan, and the inside of a turkey fryer.
Hmmm, “ things left behind...” Ithought to myself. It seems there is one thing left behind on every 46 . Memories are always left behind, I reasoned, and what a(n) 47 thing good memories are to us. I thought how each item left behind 48 me of the person it belonged to and the story 49 it.
Memories happen even if wearen’t 50 of it. The stressful and difficult moments often become memories that we 51 later with laughter and joy. The memories of past hurts, bitterness, and anger, 52 ,should be left behind 53 . These are the things that we should never 54 until the next time they come, mail back, or bring with us to 55 next visit.
As Elizabeth Stone said, “To have a child is to decide forever to have your heart go walking around outside your body.”

第三部分：阅读理解（共20小题，每题2分，满分40分）
阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
A
I’ve been reporting on extraordinary people for 25 years as a television journalist, but this small Oregon town and the man at its center, Woody Davis, stand alone in my memory.
When I read a newspaper clip about the community’s reaction to Woody’s declining health, I knew that this would be a special story for my CBS Evening News series, On the Road (the transcript of which is below).
On the Road: Giving thanks to the community angel
On a high ridge above the Columbia River, just down from heaven, you’ll find an angel here in this small town.
Woody Davis, 69, is kind of a jack-of-all-trades. And although he’s never made much money at it, on all accounts, he has earned his wings. Here is some of what people in town have said of him:
“You have to chase him down to pay him sometimes.”
“He’s uncommon, he’s special, he’s a gift that this community has had all these years.”
That is why folks in this small town east of Portland are now going out of their way to thank Woody for the thousands of good deeds he’s done for them over the past 50 years. He helped plow cars out of snow, chopped wood, repaired farm equipment, and more.
Recently, they all got together to cut and stack his firewood for winter. A couple of guys fixed up his old pickup. Someone even built him a beautiful wooden box and invited the whole town to sign it.
Clint Woody’son, said all the work his dad did for people has been repaid tenfold. “Bill Gates could not come to Corbett and buy this. You can’t buy the love that people have poured out for Dad.”
A few months ago, Woody was diagnosed with ALS—Lou Gehrig’s disease. Doctors tell him he has about six months. The disease, which attacks the nervous system, is already making it hard for him to lift much of anything or even talk. But his attitude remains unaffected.
CBS News correspondent Steve Hartman has won nearly two dozen Emmy See the original story on Woody Davis—with video—at cbsnews.com.
56. People in the Oregon town did all the things for Woody Davis except .
A. chopping wood.B. repairing the truck.
C. mending farm equipment.D. building a wooden box
57. Woody Davis story tries to convey the message that .
A. health is happinessB. dying is as natural as living
C. all that ends well is wellD. he lives best who lives for others
58. We can learn from the passage that .
A. Woody Davis did not care much about his disease
B. Bill Gates once came to the town to see Woody Davis
C. Clint took it for granted what the neighbors had done for his dad
D. Hartman brings viewers moving stories in his daily feature “On the Road”
59. In writing style this passage can be classified as .
A. a science fictionB. a feature storyC. an essayD. a self-written biography
B
Restaurants in the USA
Steve’s Pizza
So many pizza chains compete for the attention of tourists in South Beach, but ask a Miami Beach local where to get the best pizza and they’ll tell you about Steve’s. This is New York–style pizza, handmade with care and good ingredients(成份). New branches of Steve’s are opening elsewhere in Miami, all in non-tourist areas.
Opening hours: 11am-3am
Cattleman’s Steakhouse
This place is 20 miles east of the city, but local folks would probably drive 200 miles to eat here. The food is good, and the scenery is even better. Come early and wander around the grounds of Indian Cliffs Ranch, where you’ll see everything from rabbits to buffalo (水牛), then catch the sunset either before or after your meal.
Opening hours: 5pm-10pm
Absolute Baking & Cafe
The screen door is always swinging open at this town hot spot with giant breakfasts. Try the green chili on eggs – it’s made from scratch, as are the organic(有机的) breads. Lunch includes salads, big sandwiches and local grass-fed beef burgers. Don’t miss a square of soft, fresh carrot cake.
Opening hours: 7am-2pm
Walt’s Wharf
Everybody’s favorite for fresh fish (some drive in from LA), Walt’s packs them in on weekends. You can’t make reservations for dinner (though they’re accepted for lunch), but it’s worth the wait for the tree fire–grilled seafood and steaks in the many-windowed ground floor or upstairs in captain’s chairs.
Opening hours: 11am-3:30pm
60. The new branches of Steve’s Pizza are mainly intended for_________.
A. New YorkersB. the localsC. touristsD. foreigners
61. Cattleman’s Steakhouse offers the wonderful _________as well as good food.
A. view B. wine C. discount D. service
62. Which restaurant serves both breakfast and lunch
A. Steve’s Pizza. B. Absolute Baking & Café. C. Walt’s Wharf. D. Cattleman’s Steakhouse
C
Some people believe that international sport creates goodwill between the nations and that if countries play games together, they will learn to live together. Others say that the opposite is true: international competitions encourage false national pride and lead to misunderstanding and hatred(敌意). There is probably some truth in both arguments, but in recent years the Olympic Games have done little to support the view that sport encourages international brotherhood. Not only was there the tragic incident including the murder of athletes, but the Games were also ruined by incidents caused mainly by smaller national contests.
One country received its second-place medals with visible anger after the hockey final. There had been noisy scenes at the end of the hockey match, the losers objecting to the final decisions. They were sure that one of their goals should not have been disallowed and that their opponents’ victory was unfair. Their manager was in great anger when he said, “This wasn’t hockey. Hockey and the International Hockey Federation are finished.” The president of the Federation said later that such behavior could result in the suspension（停赛）of the team for at least three years.
Incidents of this kind will continue as long as sport is played competitively rather than for the love of the game. The suggestion that athletes should compete as individuals, or in non-national teams, might be too much to hope for. But in the present organization of the Olympics there is far too much that encouragesaggressive patriotism (爱国主义).
63. According to the author, recently the Olympic Games have ______.
A. created goodwill between the nations
B. brought about only false national pride
C. put an end to misunderstanding and hatred
D. hardly showed any international friendship
64. The underlined word “disallowed” (in Paragraph 2) means “______”.
A. permitted to pass B. considered as reasonable
C. won by the other side D. refused to accept
65. What did the manager mean by saying, “Hockey and the International Hockey Federation are finished"
A. His team would no longer take part in international games.
B. There should be no more Hockey matches organized by the Federation.
C. Hockey and the Federation are both ruined by the unfair decisions.
D. The Federation should break up.
66. The author gives the example in paragraph 2 to show ______.
A. that competitiveness in the games discourages international friendship
B. that sportsmen are often against the final decisions
C. how false national pride led to undesirable incidents in international games
D. that unfair decisions are common in the Olympic Games
67. What conclusion can be drawn from the passage
A. More and more athletes will compete for their own honor.
B. Athletes should compete as individuals in the OlympicGames.
C. A game should be played competitively rather than for the love of the game.
D. The organization of the Olympic Games must be improved.
D
Honesty may seem to be the best policy and a value that parents teach their children. However, a new study has suggested that parents lie to their children more often than we think.
“We are surprised by how often parenting by lying occurs to our children,” said researcher Kang Lee of the University of Toronto, Canada. “Our findings showed that even the parents who attached much importance to honesty with their children got involved in it.”
Researchers ran two studies in which parents and students commented on nine situations where a parent lied to a child to either shape behaviour or make it happy. For instance, a parent is embarrassed by a child’s crying and says, “The police will come to make sure that you behave if you don’t stop crying now.”
To control the emotion of the child, the parent told the child, “A favorite uncle has just died and become a star to watch over you.”
The researchers tested about 130 parents, mostly moms, asking whether they had told similar lies. More than 70 percent said they taught their children that lying is unacceptable. Even so, nearly 80 percent of the parents admitted they had told at least one similar lie.
Researcher Heyman suggested the reasons can be benefiting the parents themselves or protecting the child from scary issues, such as lying about a murder in the news.
“Children sometimes behave in ways that are likely to harm their longterm interests,” said Heyman. “It is common for parents to try out a number of strategies, including lying. When parents are dealing with the demands of getting through the day, concerns about possible longterm negative influences on children’s beliefs about honesty are not necessarily at the front position.”
68. What can we learn from Paragraph 2
A. Honesty is no longer important in educating children.
B. Most parents don't lie to their children.
C. Many parents get used to teaching children by lying.
D.There’s no doubt that children often lie to their parents.
69. The purpose of the parent telling the lie in Paragraph 3 is to ________.
A. make the child feel happyB. give the child a punishment
C.teach the child to behave himself or herselfD. prevent the child from crying
70. According to Heyman, ________.
A. children won’t be misled about honesty by lying
B. it’s unusual for parents to use lying to educate children
C. negative effects of lying aren’t paid enough attention to
D. it’s strange that some people worry about children’s beliefs
71. The purpose of this text is to ________.
A. show that children learn to lie from their parents
B. show how to educate children by lying
C. show parenting by lying is universal
D. tell parents the importance of children's honesty

About six years ago I was eating lunch in a restaurant in New York City when a woman and a young boy sat down at the next table, I couldn’t help overhearing parts of their conversation. At one point the woman asked, “So, how have you been” And the boy — who could not have been more than seven or eight years old — replied. “Frankly, I’ve been feeling a little depressed lately.”
This incident stuck in my mind because it confirmed my growing belief that children are changing. As far as I can remember, my friends and I didn’t find out we were “depressed”, that is, in low spirits, until we were in high school.
Undoubtedly a change in children has increased steadily in recent years. Children don’t seem childlike anymore. Children speak more like adults, dress more like adults and behave more like adults than they used to.
Whether this is good or bad is difficult to say, but it certainly is different. Childhood as it once was no longer exists. Why
Human development is based not only on born biological states, but also on patterns of gaining social knowledge. Movement from one social role to another usually involves learning the secrets of the new social positions. Children have always been taught adult secrets, but slowly and in stages; traditionally, we tell sixth graders things we keep hidden from fifth graders.
In the last 30 years, however, a secret-revelation (揭示) machine has been equipped in 98 percent of American homes. It is called television. Television passes information to all viewers alike, whether they are children or adults. Unable to resist the temptation (诱惑) , many children turn their attention from printed texts to the less challenging, more attractive moving pictures.
Communication through print, as a matter of fact, allows for a great deal of control over the social information which children will gain. Children must read simple books before they can read complex materials.
72. According to the author, feeling depressed is ________.
A. a sure sign of a mental problem in a child
B. a mental state present in all humans, including children
C. something hardly to be expected in a young child
D. something that cannot be avoided in children’s mental development
73. Traditionally, a child is supposed to learn about the adult world _________.
A. through connection with society B. gradually and under guidance
C. naturally without being taughtD. through watching television
74. According to the author, that today’s children seem adultlike results from _________.
A. the poor arrangement of teaching content
B. the fast pace of human scientific development
C. the widespread influence of television
D. the rising standard of living
75. What does the author think of communication through print for children
A. It enables children to gain more social information.
B. It can control what children are to learn.
C. It helps children to read and write well.
D. It develops children’s interest in reading and writing.注意：请将1-75题的答案用2B铅笔填涂在客观题答题卡上。
