   阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C、D）中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
   A
   I had worked long and hard on this project. Knowing it was finally completed gave me great
   Satisfaction. “Perfect！”I said “Now, all I have to do is to keep the dogs off it.”I went about setting
   Up barriers using old fence, deck chairs, planters, and anything I could find so as to avoid footprints
   both on the oil paint and our carpet . It worked perfectly .
   Just before returning to the house and to a much needed shower, I took one last look at this
   fine work of art. “What is that?”I said. “Where did that come from ?”
   Clearly marked and evenly spaced across the entire area, the tiny marks ran in straight lines. .
   I carefully stepped to our flower garden. It was there I found several of the small markings. Now,
   almost frozen in place by this shocking discovery, I remained in position so as to prevent further
   damage to my work.. Just then, off to my left, it appeared. A chipmunk （花栗鼠）. He was as
   surprised as I was . We stood there face to face looking at each other, wondering who would make the
   first move .
   The warm , humid air was now getting the best of me . Sweat now ran freely over my head, and
   in poor timing into my eyes . I reached up to rub them and when I opened my eyes he was gone .
   My only satisfaction was in thinking that when he returned home he tracked oily footprints into
   his own home . And , hoping he was married , his wife would not let him live it down for the rest of
   his life . I stood up, shook my head, laughing about it and walking into my house.
   Yes, I tracked oil on the carpet. I am married. My wife will not let me live it down for the rest of
   my life .
   21. What was the project the author completed in the passage ?

B

In most parts of the world, as far back as anyone can remember , there has been a puppet（木

偶）tradition. Although some of us think of puppets as children’s entertainment, they were----and often

still are used to tell serious stories to adult audiences. Even in these days of special effects, the puppet

theatre still has a special place in many cultures.

The best known puppet characters in Britain are Punch and Judy, glove puppets with wooden

heads. In summer, one basic play of about half an hour is performed on beaches all around Britain .

Mr. Punch, who has an enormous nose and wears a curved hat, gets into trouble and has arguments

with his wife, Judy. A policeman , a crocodile, and a hangman, and all of them run after Mr. Punch .

He ,of course, invariablymanages to survive to fight another day .

In Belgium wooden puppets first appeared in the 1820s in cities like liege. The liege puppets

are in fact string puppets without strings！They have a single rod（棒）attached to their heads, which

means the puppeteers aren’t able to raise the arms and legs, but can move the body up and down and

the head from side to side. Many of the stories used to be historical or religious but it is Tchantches,

a comic character wit patched trousers and a big black hat, who is the best loved character today. Like

Mr. Punch, he is a simple man who is also greedy, quarrelsome and lazy. He makes fun of everyone,

but is often warm--hearted and tender.

A. puppets are much more popular nowadays .

Our Web Editor Jan Fields has always loved two things----writing and teaching, so she’s done

both throughout her professional career. After graduating from college with a BA in Journalism, she

quickly found that writing for newspapers didn’t fulfill her dream. So she switched to magazines and

soon began teaching magazine writing. Still, something didn’t feel quite right. She wanted more

challenges and creativity.

In the 1980s, Jan answered a call to rewrite a year’s children’s church lesson. She quickly found

That writing stories and activities for children offered all she desired. She dove in and has never

looked back. Her work has appeared in Ladybug, Shining Star and many others.

As Jan continued building credits in children’s magazines, educational magazines, and parenting

Magazines, she looked for opportunities to pass along what she had learned to other writers. Soon,

teaching small community college classes wasn’t enough---she wanted to help other writers to find

success in creating material for children.

In 2001, she discovered the Institute of Children’s Literature and she’s been happily instructing

students here ever since. To best meet her students’ needs, she’s constantly searching out new

information. As a web editor, Jan looks after the needs of all the visitors to this site. She moderates

the Scheduled Events discussion groups and the Writer’s Retreat forum, writes for the Writer’s

Support Room, and edits the Writer’s Support Room and Writing Tips articles.

Jan is always open to suggestions for new ways to meet the needs of the writing community.

Feel free to email her. She’s eager to hear from you.

29. Jan Fields finds_________ what she really wants most.

A. writing for newspapers.

B. teaching magazine writing.

C. writing stories and activities for children.

D. teaching small community college classes.

30. Jan Fields gave up her first two jobs mainly because___________.

A. she was badly paid as a journalist

C. she was not good at writing at college

D. she likes teaching better than writing.

31. It can be inferred that the Institute of Children’s Literature is________.

A. where Jan Fields graduated

B. where she cooperates with other writers.

32. Which of the following is true according to the passage ?

“The child has become part of the management of family life, ”says Adele Schwartz, research

director for Stars for Kids, a children’s market---research firm. “This is a big role change in family

life. Housework is changing. It used to be to take out the garbage and walk the dog. This is a little

bit bigger than that.”

Three---quarters of students between the ages of 8 and 14 say they have completed an online

transaction(交易)，according to a national survey on May 9. Nearly one---fourth of the 6,000 young

people asked say they shop with their parents’ credit cards, 26 percent use gift cards, and 8 percent

say they use their own credit card. Almost half say they help with electronic transactions because

their parents are helpless online. One—third help because their parents don’t have enough time to

shop.

“Kids do a large amount of comparison shopping,”Ms. Schwartz says, “including

clothing, household items, family vacations, and even large items like a car.

All this cyber---help “clearly gives kids a power that they might not have had before,”says

Gary Rudman, in San Francisco. “Parents still make the decisions, but kids have more and more

effect than ever before, because they have access to information. They are more involved with the

household, so they have more effect on some of the decisions.”

Parents have different opinions about letting their children use credit cards online. Mr. Rudman

Says, “Some parents are open to it, others are not for it.”

Like many parents, Mrs, Hanstein keeps a watchful eye on Jacob’s Internet use.“he loves to

order something, but it’s always with our guidance. He doesn’t understand that a lot of the pop—up

advertisement ‘You’ve won this！’or ‘You can get this for $1.’is a scam.”

33. __________ is playing a more and more important role in the family management.

A. The InternetB. The electronic transaction

C. The childD. The father or mother

34. It seemed that________ has just been included as housework.

A. taking garbage outsideB. walking the dogs

C. going shopping onlineD. using computers

35. According to Mrs. Hanstein, _____________________.

A. kids shouldn’t order anything online.

B. kids should go shopping online considering their parents’ advice.

C. pop—up advertisement is something useful.

D. kids should make full use of the pop—up advertisement.

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能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。

In every school a “top”crowd sets pace, while the others follow their lead. Let’s say the top

crowd decides that it is smart to wear bright red sweaters .36.

资源库 There is nothing wrong with that, except the fact that on some people a bright red sweater is

extremely unbecoming. The situation can even become dangerous, if the top crowd decides that it is

smart to drink or to drive cars at seventy miles an hour.37they are

like the sheep being led to the butcher. 38chances are that one time

or another you probably did something you knew to be wrong . You may have excused yourself by

saying, “Gee, the crowd does it.”Well, let the crowd do it , but don’t do it yourself. 39.

Develop your own standards and your own judgment. If you know the crowd is planning

something you disagree with, have the courage to bow out politely.40.

1. Learn to say , “No”.
2. Once you do, you can learn to speak out.
3. You’ll have the satisfaction of standing on your own two feet.
4. Pretty soon everybody is wearing a bright red sweater.
5. Then the people who follow the lead are endangering their lives.
6. “No”may even take you further in the business world than “Yes”.
7. Chances are that you have come across situations like these more than once in your life.
