Is there anything more important than health？I don’t think so. You can’t be good at your studies or work when you are ill.
If you have a headache，or a bad cough，if you run a high temperature and have a bad cold，I think you should go to the doctor. The doctor will examine your throat，feel your pulse，take your temperature，sound your heart and lungs. After that he will advise some treatment，or some medicine. The only thing you have to do is to follow his advice.
Speaking of doctor’s advice，I can’t help telling you a funny story. An old man came to see the doctor. The man was very ill. He told the doctor about his weakness，memory loss and serious problems with his heart and lungs. The doctor examined him and said there was no medicine for his disease. He told his patient to go to a quiet place for a month and have a good rest. He also advised him to eat a lot of meat，drink two glasses of red wine every day and take long walks. In other words，the doctor advised him to follow the rule：“Eat at pleasure，drink with measure and enjoy life as it is.” The doctor also said that if the man wanted to be well again，he shouldn’t smoke more than one cigarette a day.
A month later the gentleman came into the doctor’s office. He looked cheerful and happy. He thanked the doctor and said that he had never felt a healthier man. “But you know，doctor，”he said，“it’s not easy to begin smoking at my age.”
4．The writer thinks that ________.
A．health is more important than wealth
B．work is as important as studies
C．medicine is more important than pleasure
D．nothing is more important than money
5．The doctor usually tells his patient what to do ________.
A．without examining the patientB．after he has examined the patient
C．if the patient doesn’t take medicineD．unless the patient feels pain
6．The underlined part means“________”.
A．he was feeling better than everB．he wasn’t a healthy man
C．he was feeling worse than before D．he will be well again
7．From the last sentence of the passage，we learn the man ________ before the doctor told him not to smoke more than one cigarette a day.
A．was a heavy smokerB．didn’t smoke so much
C．didn’t smokeD．began to learn to smoke

C

 I once had an unforgettable experience that has influenced and directed the way I think and act now.
     When I was about seven years old, my grandfather took me to a fish pond on a farm and told me to throw a stone into the water. He told me to watch the circles created by the stone. Then he asked me to think of myself as that stone. “You may create lots of circles in your life, but the waves that come from those circles will disturb the peace of all your fellow people,” he said thoughtfully. “Remember that your circle may touch many other circles, meaning that your thoughts or actions may disturb others’ lives. You are responsible for what you put in your circle. You will need to live in a way that allows the good or peace that comes from your circle to be sent to others. At the same time, the anger or jealousy(嫉妒) coming from your circle also spread to other circles. You are responsible for both.”
     That was the first time I had realized that each person’s inner peace or discord(不和谐) can flow out into the world. If we are filled with inner conflict, doubt or anger, we cannot create world peace. We spread the feelings and thoughts that we hold inside, whether we speak them or not. Whatever circles are inside us, they are spreading into the world, creating beauty or discord with all other circles of life.
8. The author’s grandfather took him/her to the fish pond to_______.
    A. go fishing together    B. teach him/her a meaningful truth of life
   C. play a fun game with the author D. correct his/her wrong doings
9.What does the author want to say by telling us his unforgettable experience?
   A. We cannot control our feelings that disturb others
   B. We shouldn’t keep in touch with other people.
   C. What we think and do can influence others’ lives.
   D. It’s difficult to keep a good relationship with other people.
10. The author would probably agree that we should________.
   A. send our anger to other people 

B. share our happiness with other people
   C. complain about the misfortune in our lives     

  D. hide our feelings and never express them to others
11.What is the purpose of writing this passage?
   A. To teach the young people how to hold their feelings and thoughts.
   B. To indicate the importance of an unforgettable experience.
   C. To recall the experience of fishing.
   D. To tell people to create beauty and harmony.
D

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出的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。

Can you imagine your parents choosing your husband or wife for you? And can you imagine not setting eyes on him or her until your wedding day? This situation is common in India, the Middle East and many parts of Africa.   16   We don't realize that people in other places often get married in very different ways ---and with different motives（动机）．

  17  A marriage provides a safe and stable home for the husband and wife．It also joins two families, which benefits the couple's parents and makes them happy. Marriage also brings children, making sure the couple will be taken care of in old age. Because a marriage is important for the whole family, some cultures don't let young people choose whom to marry．

Just as there are many different reasons for marriage, there are also many different wedding rituals（仪式）. 18   In a typical Western wedding, the bride seeks good luck

by wearing “something old, something new, something borrowed and something blue.”Something old represents the past. Something new represents success in the future. Something borrowed reminds the bride she can get help from her friends and family．  19

In Poland, one wedding tradition is not only lucky, but also very practical．The wedding guests pin money to the bride's dress while she is dancing．The money is meant to bring luck and to help the young couple build their new life．In Bermuda, the young couple plants a tree in the yard of their new home．Once they move in, they take good care of the tree , making it grow and blossom．The planting of the tree is a good metaphor（隐喻） for marriage．  20  

A．Every culture has its own ways of bringing good luck to the happy couple．

B．A truly good marriage is something that grows with care．

C．In the United States, parents do not arrange marriages for their children．

D．And something blue reminds her to be true to her husband．

E．Marriage customs around the world often differ from our own．

F．In many countries, marriage is a practical matter．

G．Different countries have different cultures．

第II卷（非选择题共50分）

第一部分：语法填空

阅读下面材料，在空白处填入适当的内容（不多于3个单词）或括号内单词的正确形式。（共10小题，每小题1.5分，满分15分）

It is commonly41(believe) that school is where people go to get education. However, it has been said that today children interrupt their education to go to school. The difference    42   schooling and education suggested by this is important.

Education is endless, compared with schooling. It can take place anywhere. It includes both the standard learning that takes place in schools and   43   whole universe of learning out of class. Though the experience of schooling can be known in advance, education quite often44(produce) surprises. A chance talk with a foreigner may lead a person to   45    (discover) how little he knows of another country. People obtain education from   46    (baby) on. Education, then, is a very broad   47   unlimited term. It is lifelong experience that starts long before the start of school.

Schooling, on the   48    hand, is a basic experience, whose style changes little from one way to the next. Throughout a country, children arrive at school at the same time, take fixed seats, use   49   (similarity) textbooks, do homework, take exams and so on. Schooling has   50  (usual) been limited by the edges of the subjects being taught.

Dear Peter,

I’m writing to tell you what I will pay a visit to the museum of our city with some friends on Saturday morning. We will gather at the school gate and start out at 7:00 in the morning. Our visit will begin at 8:00 and it will last three hours. Please keep in mind that taking pictures is not allowed in the museum. In addition, during the visit, please keep quiet. I know you are very interested in our local customs and culture. This is surely a good chance for you to know more about them.

I would like to meet you there and please let me know your decision soon.

Yours

Lucy
