       We grew up with the familiar toy bricks (积木) that gave us the imagination to build towers and castles. Generations have been attracted by this toy that lets children and adults alike create anything and everything. But with over 200 millions sets being sold a year in over 100 countries, the question remains — where did Lego actually come from?
       Lego was born from the creative mind of Danish carpenter (木匠), Ole Kirk Christiansen, back in the early 1930s. He established a small business in Denmark. He and his team built a variety of household goods like ironing boards along with wooden toys. The Lego name was adopted in 1934, formed from the Danish words “Leg Godt” or “play well”, which means “I study” or “I put together” in Latin.
       Christiansen’s company continued to make wooden toys until 1942 when fire struck — the entire Lego factory burned to the ground. Unwilling to give in, the factory was rebuilt and the production line restarted soon after. By 1954, Christiansen’s son, Godtfred, had become the junior managing director of the Lego Group. It was during his conversation with an overseas buyer that he was struck by the idea of a toy system.
       For over 30 years, the Lego Company made only toys and related goods. Then, in 1968, the company opened its first Legoland in Denmark. Combining the Lego building bricks with a computer, the Robotics Invention System 1.5 is now the most advanced toy in the Lego Company, which is targeted at users aged twelve and above, and that includes any parents or grandparents that want to join in.
       Now the Lego Company is expanding its production lines to include lights, cameras and so on. Lego Company has done a lot to entertain many children around the world.

       My grandfather spent most of his life in a turbulent (动乱的) India. After settling in New York, he took up his true passion: gardening.
       Grandfather’s garden was where I took refuge (避难) from a world of adults and schoolwork. My grandfather cultivated squash (南瓜) and tomatoes — it was not rare to find me somewhere in the garden, either secretly eating a tomato, or just sitting and admiring my grandfather’s hard work. However, as time went by, I did not have the chance to visit his house as often as I used to.
       On my eleventh birthday, I received a gift bag wrapped in pretty paper from my grandfather. Excited to see what he had given to me for my birthday, I tore apart the paper only to find a yellow squash. I was very angry. What a stupid present!
       But gradually, I realized that in my developing a relationship with his garden, I had unknowingly grown very close to my grandfather himself, something he wished to remind me of through his gift. His commitment towards doing things definitely influenced me. It could bring him a sense of accomplishment. Because of him, I try to model the idea of approaching everything with both drive and passion.
       My grandfather passed away five years ago, but his influence on me could not be bigger than it is today. As I prepare to enter college and move on from my relatively sheltered high school life toward achieving complete independence, allowing my passions to find their way into whatever I may be doing will be very necessary. I still look up to my grandfather very much to this day, and I hope that one day I will be able to sow in my own garden, and give someone else a squash on his or her birthday — it was the most meaningful gift I have ever received.
28. When the author was young, she often visited the garden mainly to ______.
    1. have a taste of her favorite vegetables
    2. help her grandfather cultivate the garden
    3. escape from the adults and schoolwork
    4. admire her grandfather’s hard work
29. When the author saw the squash gift from her grandfather, she was ______.
    1. excitedB. confused
       C. curiousD. upset
30. Why did the grandfather send the author a squash?
    1. Squash was the author’s favorite vegetable.
    2. Squash was the greatest achievement of him.
    3. He wanted to remind the author that they had been close.
    4. He wanted the author to follow his career.
31. What’s the best title for the text?
    1. A Special Gift — Yellow Squash
    2. Grandfather and India
    3. Life with Grandfather
    4. Gardening and Life
       D
       Doctors have a new weapon in the battle against obesity (过度肥胖) — a talking plate that tells people not to eat too quickly. The Mandometer monitors the amount of food leaving the plate, and tells users, “Please eat more slowly.”
       The ￡1,500 Swedish device is to be used in a National Health Service plan to help hundreds of obese families lose weight. It comes in two parts — a scale placed under the plate and a small computer screen showing a graphic（图表） of the food gradually disappearing as the user eats. A red line on the screen shows the user’s eating speed, while a blue line shows a healthy rate. If the user eats too fast, the red line angles away from the blue one, warning him or her to ease off. If the lines deviate (偏离) too much, the computer voice comes on, and the screen flashes the message “Are you feeling full yet?” to remind users to think about whether they have had enough.
       Britain has an increasingly serious obesity problem, with one in four adults and one in seven children classed as obese. After a recent trial using the device, experts believe teaching obese people to eat more slowly will help them know when they are full. Around 600 families with at least one obese parent and child (aged five or older) were targeted in the project by Bristol University, along with GPs and nurses.
       Professor Julian Hamilton-Shield, who is leading the plan, says obese children and adolescents using the Mandometer ate from 12 to 15 percent less per meal at the end of the 12-month trial. Six months after they stopped using the device they still ate less, and continued to lose weight. “It will be a powerful tool to help families retrain their eating habits,” he says.
32. What does the red line on the screen show?
    1. A healthy rate of eating. B. Too much food is left.
       C. The user’s eating speed.D. The user is full.
33. What can we infer from the text?
    1. The device can help obese people form good eating habits.
    2. Every family will have such a device soon.
    3. This device is the best way to lose weight.
    4. People will no longer worry about obesity.
34. The underlined phrase ease off is closest in meaning to ______.
    1. to become less tense B. to eat more slowly
       C. to remove gently and slowly D. to stop
35. Which of the following is TRUE, according to the text?
    1. 25% of children are obese in Britain.
    2. One in seven adults is obese in Britain.
    3. Children using the Mandometer ate less after the trial.
    4. Six months after the trial, obese people are still eating a lot.

Camping is an American tradition, and especially important for families. 36

Camping allows you to spend quality time as a family. Most family members are too caught up in their everyday lives to stop and spend time with each other.

Many years ago, Manhattan Island, 61 is a part of the great city of New York,62 (cover) with forest. Along its shores were small Indian villages. In fact, Indians were the only people on the island until 1609. In the spring of that year, Henry Hudson, a famous sea captain, arrived there. He was trying to find a short way to the Far East for Dutch traders. His ship was very small. It was only about the size of one of the63 (lifeboat) you see on modern ocean liners today. Of course, Henry Hudson did not find a 64 (short) way to the Far East. Instead he reached the shores of North America. He came to the mouth of the large waterway now 65 (call) the Hudson River.

As he came near to the shore, he saw 66 Indian village. The Indians seemed 67 (friend). They even came out to meet the ship and offered 68 furs to the Dutch sailor in exchange for glass beads and 69 small things. When Henry Hudson returned to Holland, he showed everyone the fine furs.

When I was young, I lived in a place where had a lot of trees, many rivers, and was near a big lake. We had a large house with a garden and lots of grasses. My brothers and sisters and I played outside whenever we could in my own yard, in our neighbors’ yards, and in the empty yards down the street. We ride bikes and played ballgames with friends. But I always thought that there was something missing in my environment, as wonderfully as it was. I liked going to the big lake the most. Even there, though, I felt I needed anything more. The lake was big, and you could still see land on the other side.

One day, my family took trip to New York City. As we drove on the freeway, I looked out the window at the ocean. For as far as I could see, there was no land on the other side. I rolled down the window and heard from the sounds of the sea birds. They seemed to call me, tell me I would never be able to live away from the sea again.

54.D 考查动词辨析。donate“捐赠”；devote“”奉献 ； send“派遣”；sell“卖”。对应上文的buy,这里指当地农民来买我们的鸡蛋然后卖出去。

55.C 考查动词短语辨析。give out“分发”； run out“耗尽”；help out“帮助”。指孩子们对我们帮助很大，因为家里养有270个生蛋的母鸡和200只小鸡。

56.A 分析见55题。

57.A考查形容词辨析。alive“活着的”；busy “忙碌的”；easy“容易的”；painful“痛苦的”。用alive指我的言语治疗业务还在进行。

58.B 根据第二段最后一句So we wondered what if we started farming.可知用farm.

59.C 考查动词辨析。contra“相反，反对”； care“关心,照顾”； relate“使…有联系”；compete“竞争”。这里指家里人更多的彼此之间互相关心了。relate to有理解，关心，与。。。。。。协调之意。care不需要和to连用。

60.D 固定搭配。 be grateful for”感激，感谢”。

语法填空解析：

61.which 考查定语从句。先行词为Manhattan Island，指物，在定语从句中作主语，并且是非限制性定语从句，所以只能填which引导定语从句。

62. was covered 考查动词的时态语态。根据上面的Many years ago,所以用过去时态的被动语态。

63. lifeboats 考查名词单复数形式。one of后的名词用复数形式。

64. shorter 考查比较级。与上文He was trying to find a short way to the Far East for Dutch traders.“他试图找到一条通往远东的捷径”作对比。

65. called 考查非谓语动词。过去分词作定语，表被动，所以用called “被称作”

66. an 考查冠词。village是单数可数名词，泛指，加上Indian发音时是元音音素开头，因此填an。

67. friendly 考查词性转换。名词变形容词。

68. their 考查人称代词的统一性。句中主语是they,空格需要填一个形容词修饰名词furs,所以填their.

69. other 考查不定代词。 这里指除了玻璃珠以外其它的东西，所以填other.

70. to 考查介词。to指目的地，指到达新世界。

M: Good morning. I am Professor Armstrong, and I am your laboratory instructor. This class is intended as a necessary part of the course. This class will meet twice a week. This laboratory begins at nine. And do not arrive late and interrupt your neighbor. You may as well not come if you can’t be on time. Attendance is equally important. If you miss three lab classes, you’re dropped from the labs. You can’t complete the course without completing the lab. Besides, safety is key here. It’s very important to keep things neat and clean, dress properly, and be careful. You may not eat, drink or smoke in the laboratory and you should always clean the counter and wash your hands both before and after the class. Long hair must be tied back. Large clothing must not be worn. Any laboratory accident must be reported immediately.
