試題分析：本文講述了理查德大學畢業(yè)后找到一份新工作，薪水很高，他工作很努力。但是不久他失眠了，工作經常出錯，在看過醫(yī)生之后，他吃了藥睡了兩天，導致老板大怒。
小題1:考查名詞， 根據題干，可知他善于動腦筋 ，故應該是用頭，而非其他部位。所以本題選B。
小題2:考查副詞根據上文可知，得到的報酬多，工作就應該更努力。故用harder。所以本題選B。
小題3:考查形容詞 ，根據something was wrong with the young man 可知，本句的意思應是“他晚上不能入睡。”故應該是fall asleep。所以本題選A。
小題4:考查形容詞， 根據上文和下文的often made mistakes可知，他應該是累了，故用tired。其他選項明顯不符合題意。所以本題選D。
小題5:考查固定短語 ，look for“尋找”，look at“看”，look after“照顧”，look over“檢查”。根據句意，應該是醫(yī)生給他做了檢查。所以本題選D。
小題6:考查介詞 ，根據he went to bed.可知，應該是在睡覺前吃藥，故用before。所以本題選C。
小題7:考查動詞短語， 根據in the morning可知，應該是早上醒來，故用wake up。所以本題選B。
小題8:考查名詞 ，根據上文知道這是早上，當然是吃早飯，故用breakfast。所以本題選Ｄ。
小題9:考查副詞， 根據題干，本句的意思是“我從來沒有睡過這么好的覺。”故用never。所以本題選C。
小題10:考查動詞， 根據Skunk (混蛋)!和下文我們可以推知，應該是老板對他喊，故用shout。所以本題選B。

I bought a jasmine plant for my office. When I bought it, I was told it would bloom（開花） and the sweet smell would fill my office. I had the plant for two months, and every day I looked at it, but there weren't any flowers or pleasant smell. I was not happy, so I gave the plant to my friend Linda.
One day, another friend Mary called and invited me to her office. When I walked in, her jasmine flowers surprised me. I reached out to touch the flowers. Mary cut some and gave them to me. I couldn't help smelling them. Surrounded by the sweet smell of only a handful of these flowers, I suddenly understood something.
Mary bought her plant the same time I did. It took a year for her jasmine to bloom. I was so impatient for mine to bloom; regretfully, I gave it away.
In a way my life is like the jasmine plant. I need to be patient and let things happen.
Last Sunday Linda told me that she was going abroad the next week. Before she left, she returned the plant to me. This time I am going to wait. I have learned that when we want something in our life, we have to be patient. I am slowly learning to have that patience to wait for my jasmine to bloom.

A. one day                    B. one year        C   . two weeks      D. two months

When we talk about stars, especially women stars, it seems that they are always young, pretty and own attractive body shapes. But recently a Britain’s Got Talent(英國達人) star Susan Boyle has changed our views completely.
Simon Cowell, one of the organizers of the talent show spoke of his surprise over Ms Boyle’s voice. “This lady came up, and I’m thinking, ‘This will take five seconds and I can go to have a cup of tea.’ That changed when she began to sing I Dreamed a Dream from Lea Miserables. She knew we were going to have that reaction(反應) and just to see that look of satisfaction on her face midway through — it was one of my favorite moments,” Cowell said.
The performance was posted online and before long, the 47-year-old Scottish woman has been famous all over the world.
Speaking from her home in Scotland, Ms Boyle said that she hadn’t thought of changing her appearance. She said that her friend helped her with make-up. “I mean, it’s meaningless.” She added.
Ms. Boyle also spoke of the reason she first began to explore her musical talents. “ I was kind of slow at school, so getting something like singing was a good way of hiding behind that and therefore it built my confidence.’’
小題1:Susan Boyle had a look of satisfaction on her face when she was singing because  ________.
A．she was confident of her singing
B．she was satisfied with the organizers
C．she was pretty and in good shape
D．she sang the song I Dreamed a Dream from Lea Miserables
小題2:According to the passage, which is NOT true?
A．It was the musical talents that built Susan's confidence.
B．Susan Boyle was not good at her lessons when at school.
C．Susan Boyle became famous because of her appearance.
D．Simon Cowell didn't think Susan Boyle a good singer at the first sight.
小題3:What can we learn from Susan Boyle’s success?
A．It’s never too old to learn.
B．It’s easier to succeed at the age of 47.
C．If you have a dream, keep trying to make it come true!
D．If you are not able to study well, to be a singer instead.

I have a neighbor we call “Happy”. I have never seen her angry at anything and never heard her say a harsh word to anyone or about anyone.
Happy and her husband Ben, 70, have a huge garden. They spent many happy hours together working on it. Most of the neighbors watched interestingly as Ben doubled the size of their garden. As the cost of food climbed faster than Ben’s beans, we all wished we also had such a large garden. As the rest of us spent our dollars at the market, Happy could be seen picking beans in her back yard.
Last month, Happy and Ben invited most of the neighborhood over for an “all-day food festival”. We were told to bring gloves and arrive very early in the morning. We didn’t know what was about to take place.
By 9:00 am, there were nine of us in the garden picking tomatoes, beans, okra, and squash. By 10:00 am, there was lots of laughter. We shared a lot of stories. By five o’clock, everyone was a little drunk from the wine and beer. After dinner, we played games. As we were leaving, Happy and Ben handed each of us a shopping bag filled with the bounty of the day, already packaged and frozen. What a delightful gift!
Well, the point wasn’t so much about the food. The true gift was a day of friends enjoying one another’s company. None of it would have happened if it had been for Happy and Ben’s garden. Now they have a blog about gardening in case we decided to plant a garden. And I am so proud of my tomato plants!
小題1:According to paragraph 2, people wished they also had a garden so that                  .
A．they could spend happy times together with their family in it
B．they could grow vegetables and sell at the market
C．they could invite their neighbors and hold parties in it
D．they didn’t have to spend so much money on food
小題2: Which of the following is the same as the underlined word “bounty”?
A．Present.B．Kindness.C．Laughter.D．Happiness.
小題3:For what purpose did Happy and Ben invite the neighbors to their garden?
A．To ask them to attend a birthday party
B．To help them get to know each other.
C．To let them enjoy what they grew in the garden.
D．To ask them to share some interesting stories.
小題4:What did the writer most probably think of the time he spent in the garden?
A．He thought it was too short but enjoyable.
B．He thought it was wonderful.
C．He thought it was not as good as he thought.

A．Happy and her husband Ben don’t like spending time with others
B．Happy and her husband Ben sometimes quarrel with each other
C．Happy and her husband Ben are a generous and warm-hearted couple
D．Happy and her husband Ben live on the food they grow in their garden
