The weather was terrible that night. The summer thunderstorm had knocked out the power. Luckily, there was enough candlelight flickering(闪烁)on the kitchen table. With the candlelight, could see the card I was writing to my husband's cousins in Finland.
Dear Heli and Rislo,
You are on my mind tonight because we are using the candles you gave us when you visited us two years ago. There M^as a horrible summer thunderstorm this evening and the power went out, and your candles were just what we needed. They have lit our dinnertime, the bedrooms and now I am sitting by one in the kitchen ...
What I didn't say to Heli and Risto is that we never burned the candles before because they, well, smell like a campfire. And so they stood in iron candlesticks until we needed them.
I'm so thankful that we had candles on hand that dark night. And I'm equally as thankful that I had a beautiful card on hand, too, or I would have let the opportunity to keep in touch with faraway family escape. It would have turned into another one of those moments when the thought of sending a card crossed my mind but never actually happened.
The candle burned slowly. After I finished my card to Finland, I enjoyed looking through the rest of my ‘‘Someone Cares
D. Because there was no electricity due to the thunderstorm. 57. By saying
B. she liked the smell of a campfire very much C. she didn't like the smell of the burning candles D. she didn't need to burn the candles in the past
58. In the past, when the writer wanted to send a card, she often _____. A. immediately wrote one B. didn't put it into practice C. didn't know what to write D. hesitated for a long time
59. Lighting the candles on the stormy night made the writer _____. A. believe everyone could be happy B. value her relatives and friends more C. know how to make her boring life interesting D. know who was the most important person to her
B
Sometimes there doesn't seem to be enough rain. Other times there is too much. Maybe there isn't a lot we can do to control the rain, but there is a lot we can do to reduce problems caused by different rainfall patterns.
A new development at the London Wetland Centre in Barnes solves the problems of managing water with a “Rain Garden
One of the key problems that the rain garden tries to deal with is the problem caused by too much water in the street. In a natural environment, a lot of rainwater is sent back into the air by plants. Much is also absorbed deep into the ground, and flows into streams and rivers. What happens in city environments can be completely different —— a large, amount of rainwater flows straight off the hard surfaces of roofs and roads. The harder the rain, the less likely it will be
absorbed into the ground — floods are the result. Rainwater running off roads is often polluted. The rain garden deals with living plants rather than hard surfaces. Plants are designed to hold water and release it slowly, either into the ground, to be absorbed by plant roots (and so eventually back up into the atmosphere) or to go down into the water table. Not only does the rain garden reduce the amount of water that flows onto the street, but it helps to clean it plants are very good at breaking down pollutants(亏染物).
60. What's the main idea of the first paragraph?
A. Explaining why there is a lack of rain at times.
B. Introducing several different patterns of rainfall.
C. Telling us how to avoid problems caused by rain.
D. Giving the idea that there are ways to manage rain water.
61. According to the second paragraph, “Rain Gardens
A. harm the environment in the short run
B. become popular over the next few years
C. be turned down by most new developments
D. be too expensive for common people to accept
62. We can learn from the third paragraph that _____.
A. floods are often the results of small rains
B. a heavy rain is less difficult for plants to absorb
C. the rain garden helps send rainwater back into the air
D. larger amounts of rainwater flow straight off in city environments
63. According to the last paragraph, what does the rain garden help to clean?
A. The plants.
C. The water. B. The ground. D. The street.
C

BEIJING — China's education authority will tighten the widely criticized policy of “extra credits” for the national college entrance examination to ensure a fairer chance for all exam-takers.
Under the policy, high school students who win awards in national Olympic competitions could get ‘‘extra credits’,up to 20 points for the national college entrance exam. Students with talent in sports and students who are from ethnic groups can also benefit from this policy. The extra credits have increased these students' chances of being admitted by famous universities. Some parents were found to have helped their children fabricate(伪造)award experiences or falsify qualifications to get extra credits.
“It has harmed education equality,” the ministry said.
Xiong Bingqi, vice-chief of the 21st Century Education Research Institute, said the policy is designed to help students who have special talents but may be weak in academic performance to have a chance to receive higher education. uIt will still be needed but it is time to make the rules fairer,
The ministry said it will reduce the range of competitions whose winners can get extra credits, and limit the winners, privileges(优先权).
The new policy will apply to students who begin high school in 2011, it said.
Chen Lei, a mother of a 10-year-old girl, said she welcomed the ministry's policy adjustment as But not all the Chinese parents welcomed the new policy. “It is like a thunderbolt for me. My - 13-year-old son has spent so much time studying Olympic math,and participated in so many technological competitions during vacations. It is useless now,” said Dong Wen, a 43-year-old mother.
A student said, “Many students have changed the current study plan, and they can abandon the competition. I will be interested in learning the courses which can improve my abilities.” Yuan Guiren, minister of education, told China Daily that the reform is an attempt to consider the overall quality of an applicant. “But the country will not stop the national college entrance
examination as it is still the most objective way to evaluate talent in China,” lie said.
72. It can be inferred from the passage that_____.
A. high school students with talent in sports are weak in academic performance
B. students who win awards in Olympic competitions can't get extra credits in 2011 “
C. the number of competitions whose winners can be awarded extra credits will be smaller
D. the extra credits have reduced students' chances of being admitted by famous colleges
73. What does the underlined word “geek” probably mean?
A. a winner
C. a competitor B. a smart learner D. a dull student
74. Which person in the passage was strongly against the new policy?
A. Xiong Bingqi
C. Dong Wen
75. What might be the best title for the text?
A. “Extra credits,,policy in China to be adjusted
B. Promotion of national Olympic competitions
C. Advice on the national college entrance exam
D. Chinese government to push education reform

注意:每个空格只填一个单词。
Iceland has the highest birth rate in Europe, the highest divorce rate, and the highest percentage of women working outside the home. Such statistics are often evidence of an unhappy, troublesome society, with loads of children, broken homes and absent mothers. But Iceland is the exception — its citizens are apparently the happiest in the world. New rankings from the United B. Chen Lei D. Yuan Guiren
Nations rate Iceland as the best country in the world in which to live.
Perhaps the country's geographic location contributes to Icelanders' happiness. Located in the middle of the North Atlantic, with Greenland as its nearest neighbor, Iceland is free from the taboos(禁忌)that cause so much suffering elsewhere. For instance, people who divorce are not looked down upon by the society.
Icelanders' ancestors are the Vikings, a north European people who invaded(侵略)European coasts from the beginning of the 8th through the 10th century. This tradition of getting out into the world lives on in modern-day Iceland. Practically all Icelanders have studied or worked in other countries, and most speak English. Perhaps as a result, Iceland's economic policies combine the best of those from Europe and the US to create its own welfare system.
Indeed, the country is rich in writers, painters, film makers and accomplished musicians. There's Sigur Ros,a post-rock band that plays to the highest standards all over the world. Half the population appears to have written a book.

第二节 书面表达
One possible version:
Good morning, ladies and gentlemen!
Here, in front of you stands a girl, easy-going and optimistic. I’m not a top student but I’m happy and full of confidence. Now I’ll tell you why.
As a child, I showed great interest in painting. At the age of five, I began to learn it. With my parents’ support and encouragement, I became a member of the out-of-class painting group of our school. Since then, I have been practicing drawing with joy and make progress every day. I have already won many prizes in all kinds of competitions. Now I am a designer for blackboard and wall newspapers of our class, often painting pictures to beautify our class or campus. On some occasions, I usually send nice postcards to my friends and relatives, and they are all made by myself. They’ll be glad to accept my gifts and praise me. You can’t imagine how proud I am!
My dear friends, I’m sure everyone is special and unique in the world. Let’s be proud of ourselves!
Thank you .
(Text 5)
W: Why haven’t you left for school yet? It’s already 7:50.
M: I can’t find my books. I remember I put them in my bag, but they are not there.
W: What other excuse do you have? You got a bad cold again? Come on, what’s the real reason you are not going?
M: I hate English and math.
W: Ah, I see.
(Text 6)
W: Hi, you look tired.
M: Yeah, but actually I feel great. I’ve just been working out at the gym.
W: Really? What do you do?
M: Well, usually I play ping-pong three times a week, and, if I have time, I go for a short swim.
W: I have never been to the gym. I am so busy with my classes that I just don’t have time to exercise.
M: Oh, that’s too bad. I think you would enjoy the gym if you started going.
W: My schedule is so tight; you know my teachers all have great expectations of me.
M: Well, anyway, think about it. And if you do find the time, I do encourage you to try it. You’d feel 100% better.
W: Yeah, I really need to start getting some exercise. I will give it some serious thought.
(Text 7)
M: Hi, Linda. When are you going home today?
W: Oh, hi, Jim. I have to stay here at the library and study until at least eleven o’clock tonight. Are you studying here, too?
M: No, I’m not studying; I’m working. I work at the circulation desk until eleven o’clock tonight. Do you want to meet me then?
W: Ok. Are you working full-time now?
M: Yeah. I work 40 hours a week. And I’m taking three classes.
W: Wow! When do you have time to study?
M: In the mornings usually. Some days all I do is eat, study, work and sleep.
W: That sounds terrible. If you ever get some free time, maybe we could get together and watch a movie or go dancing or something.
M: That would be great. I’ll check my work schedule. Why don’t we talk about it when we meet later on?
W: Ok, see you then.
(Text 9)
M: Ok. Have you decided how we are going to get to the zoo tomorrow?
W: Well, we’ve got three choices. We can get a taxi, ride our bikes or catch a bus. Do you have a preference?
M: Well, a taxi is very convenient and we’ll get there quickly, but it’s so expensive. I’d rather spend my money getting some shoes and news. If we take a bike, we can get some exercise, but we’ll have to leave very early, because the zoo is pretty far away. So I guess we should take the bus.
W: Hmm, all right. But there is no direct bus to the zoo from here. We’ll have to catch the No. 7 bus to the train station. From the train station, we can catch the No. 12 bus or the No. 25. They both pass by the zoo.
M: Oh, we’ll have to take two buses to get there? That’s not going to save us much time then, is it? W: I don’t think it will. And to make matters worse, there are fewer buses on Sundays, so we’ll probably have to wait some time for one to arrive.
M: Well, the weather report said that tomorrow will be sunny but cool, and I do really need to get some exercise.
W: Great, so it’s decided. I’ll see you at 8:30 tomorrow morning.
