A

I was eighteen years old, fresh out of high school with a bright future to look forward to, when I received the"big" news that I got cancer. This was a big deal for someone of my age to stand. What should I do? Lost in self pity or fight for myself? I chose the second.

After four months of treatments, I overcame my difficulties and started to be a newperson—someone who took nothing for granted and who learned to appreciate everything and everyone around me. Years passed and I received my certificate (证书) in medical assisting,met a wonderful man, moved to New York and got married. Truly, life couldn't have been any better.

For years, I had always kept in touch with St.Jude Children's Hospital in Memphis, TN and the children living with cancer who were being treated there. What a truly beautiful place! No patient was ever turned away regardless of ability to pay. As my 20-year anniversary (纪念日) of being a cancer survivor approached, I wanted to do something special. I organized a fund raiser, calling it"A Mission of Love," and thanks to my generous family and friends,raised $4,000 for St. Jude's. Three quarters of the money would be given as a donation (捐献) to the hospital, and what was left would go toward buying toys for the children. I also had organized a T-shirt painting activity for the hospital.

My husband and I flew to Memphis with 50 T-shirts and a huge bag of cloth paint the day before Thanksgiving. We went to the toy store and filled three shopping carts with all kinds of toys. It was as though we were celebrities when the employees and other shoppers knew what we were doing.

On Thanksgiving Day we pulled into the front gate of St.Jude. After dropping the toys off, we went to a waiting area where some children were waiting anxiously to begin painting. They picked out their shirts and my husband and I helped them get started. To see them smile was one of the greatest gifts I could have ever received. When the activity was over, we dropped off the donation to a kind worker, and our visit came to an end.

      Do you find getting up in the morning so difficult that it’s painful? This might be called laziness, but Dr. Kleitman has a new explanation. He has proved that everyone has a daily energy cycle.
      During the hours when you labour through your work, you may say that you’re “hot”. That’s true. The time of day when you feel most energetic is when your cycle of body temperature is at its peak. For some people that peak comes during the forenoon. For others it comes in the afternoon or evening. No one has discovered why this is so, but it leads to such familiar monologues （自言自语）as “Get up , John ! You’ll be late for work again !” The possible explanation to the trouble is that John is at his temperature-and-energy peak in the evening. Much family quarrelling ends when husbands and wives realize what these energy cycles mean, and which cycle each member of the family has.
      You can’t change your energy cycle, but you can make your life fit it better. Habit can help. Dr. Kleitman believes. Maybe you’re sleepy in the evening but feel you must stay up late anyway. Counteract （打乱）your cycle to some extent by habitually staying up later than you want to . If your energy is low in the morning but you have an important job to do early in the day, rise before your usual hour. This won’t change your cycle , but you’ll get up steam and work better at your low point .
      Get off to a slow start which saves your energy. Get up with a yawn （呵欠）and stretch . Sit on the edge of the bed a minute before putting your feet on the floor. Avoid the troublesome search for clean clothes by laying them out the night before. Whenever possible, do routine （常规的）work in the afternoon and save tasks requiring more energy for your sharper hours .
5. Which of the following causes family quarrels?
   1. Familiar monologues.
   2. Not knowing each other’s energy cycle.
   3. A change in a family member’s energy cycle.
   4. Attempts to control the energy of other family members
6. If you want to work better at your low point in the morning, you should .
   1. change your energy cycle B. overcome your laziness
      C. go to bed earlier D. get up early than usual
7. You are advised to rise with a yawn and stretch because it will .
   1. keep your energy cycle under control all day
      B. help to keep your energy for the day’s work
      C. help you to control your temper early in the day
      D. enable you to get your energy on your routine work
8. What’s the best title of the passage?
   1. Change Your Habits B. Save Your Energy
      C. Temperature—and—Energy PeakD. Daily Energy Cycle
      C

    Beijing has started a battle to get rid of “Chinglish” (Chinese English). The “Language mandarins” of Beijing have decided that Chinglish is a disease for China’s modernizing claim and must be obliterated before the city hosts the Winter Olympic Games in 2022.
    A road sign on the Avenue of Eternal Peace （Chang’an Street）, for example, advised: “To Take Notice of Safe; The Slippery are Very Crafty,” a warning that the sidewalk was slippery. Another sign in a Beijing park reads: “Little grass is smiling slightly, please walk on sidewalk “.
    Li Honghai, the city official in charge of the battle, said, “Linguistic perfection (语言美) is becoming increasingly important with the rise in the number of the foreigners flowing into the city .”
    However, not everyone shares the disdain （蔑视）of the Beijing government for the mixed language. “The choice of words is pretty much. One can either choose the verbs, adverbs, nouns or whatever one likes,” explained one Hong Kong linguist on an Internet website.
    So many examples exist that several Internet sites have been set up to collect Chinglish phrases. Many come from English instructions on packages such as a candle marked with “Keep this candle out of children” and a model boat -- curiously named Posh Sailboat -- which means “Please don’t place it in dusty play.”
    If the battle against Chinglish is successful, Chinese will also turn their attention to the English-language versions of newspapers, which play an even more important role in teaching right English.
12. The underlined word “obliterated” refers to .
    1. beautifiedB. exploited C. translated D. removed
13. From the passage, we know that .
    1. Chinglish usually communicates in many cases
       B. everyone shares the disdain for the mixed language
       C. all the people don’t share the disdain for the mixed language
       D. several Internet sites have been set up to clear the Chinglish phrases
14. We can infer that the English-language versions of newspapers .
    A.should collect more Chinglish phrases B. should report the battle above
    C. should be paid more attention to D.should be in duty to teach normal English
15. Which of the following signs is Chinglish?
    

    Keep off the grass,

    please.

    Watch your step.

    Slippery sidewalk.

    
    AB
    

    No smoking,

    please.

    Tourists do not

    enter.

    第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）
    根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
    The way to lift up your mood
    Everyone has periods in their lives when everything seems very hard, when there’s nobody to talk to and the mood (情绪) is just getting worse and worse. 16
    The first thing you should try is socializing and thinking positively. It’s very hard, because usually when we feel sad we lock ourselves at home and try to think about all the bad things we have. But if you’ll try to force yourself and call a friend for a cup of coffee, the chances for changing your mood into better are very good. Just try to avoid bad thoughts. 17
    18 It could be something you wanted for a long time —a short trip, a coat, a ring or anything that could lift up your mood. It doesn’t have to be costly, but it has to be good to yourself.
    Not only giving gifts to yourself can lift up your mood. 19 Think of your friends, family, relatives or even local charities (慈善机构), choose one person and give him a gift. It doesn’t have to be something expensive or big. It may be just a little toy to your poor neighbor’s child. Making another person feel happy will make you feel good in your heart and mind.
    Take control of your feelings. Don’t let them control you. 20 Just follow the advice above, and start doing something.
    1. Cry aloud if you feel it is necessary.
    2. Here are some things that may help you lift up your mood.
    3. Making yourself feel better isn’t that hard.
    4. Buying things to others may be a perfect way to feel happy.
    5. Do your best to find someone to talk to.
    6. Instead, try to think about the bright side of your life.
    7. You should also try doing something only for yourself, something totally selfish.
