18．（第一、二層次學校的學生做此題）
When it comes to friends，I desire those who will share my happiness，who have wings of their own and who will fly with me．I seek friends whose qualities have a good influent on me and train me up for love．It is for these people that I reserve the good old days，too good not to share．
When I was in the eighth grade，I had a friend．We were shy and"too serious"about our studies when it was becoming fashionable with our classmates to learn acceptable social behaviors．We said little at school，but she would come to my house and we would sit down with pencils and paper，and one of us would say："Let's start with a train whistle （鳴笛） today．"We would sit quietly together and write separate poems or stories that grew out of a train whistle．Then we would read them aloud．At the end of that school year，we were too busy and poems stopped．
When I lived for a time in London，I had a friend，who was in sadness and so was I．But our friendship was based on the idea in each of us that we would be sorry later if we did not visit much of this great city because we had felt bad at the time．We met every Sunday for five weeks and found many excellent things．We walked until our sadness disappeared and then we said goodbye． We gave London to each other．
For almost four years I have had good friends whose imagination lightens mine．We write long letters in which we often discover our strangest selves．Each of us appears，sometimes in a funny way，in the other's dreams．She and I agree that，at certain times，we seem to be parts of the same mind．In my most interesting moments，I often think："Yes，I must tell…．"We have never met．
It is such comforting friends I wish to make．One bright hour with me is worth more to me than the lifetime services of a psychologist（心理學家），who will only fill up the healing（愈合的）silence necessary to those darkest moments in which I would rather be my own best friend．

14．Most young people enjoy some forms of physical activities．It may be walking，cycling，swimming，or in winter，skating or skiing．It may be a game of some forms-football，basketball，hockey，golf or tennis．It may be mountaineering．
Those who have a love for climbing high and difficult mountains are often looked upon with astonishment．Why are men and women willing to suffer cold and hardship，and to take risks in high mountains？This astonishment is caused，probably，by the difference between mountaineering and other forms of activities to which men give their leisure （休閑娛樂）．
Mountaineering is a sport and not a game．There are no manmade rules，as others，as there are for such games as golf and football．There are，of course，rules of different kinds which would be dangerous to ignore，but it is this freedom from manmade rules that makes mountaineering attractive to many people．Those who climb mountains are free to use their own methods．
If we compare mountaineering with other more familiar sports，we might think that one big difference is that mountaineering is not a"team game"．We should be mistaken in this．There are，it is true，no"matches"between"teams"of climbers，but when climbers are on a rock face linked by a rope on which their lives may depend，there is obviously teamwork．
The mountain climber knows that he may have to fight forces that are stronger and more powerful than man．He has to fight the forces of nature．His sport requires high mental and physical qualities．
A mountain climber continues to improve in skills year by year．A skier is probably past his best by the age of thirty．But it is not unusual for men of fifty or sixty to climb the highest mountains in the Alps．They may take more time than younger men，but they perhaps climb with more skills and less waste of effort，and they certainly experience equal enjoyment．
33．Mountaineering is a sport，not a game becauseD．
A．it has manmade rules
B．it is too dangerous for climbers
C．it can't bring people joy or leisure
D．it is free for climbers to use their own methods
34．We know from the passage thatD．
A．mountaineering has no attraction for people
B．physical quality is more important than mental （精神上的） one for climbers
C．a(chǎn) mountain climber passes his best by the age of thirty
D．it is possible for an old man of fifty or sixty to climb the Alps
35．What is the best title for the passage？C
A．Sports in winter     
B．Team work in climbing
C．Mountaineering     
D．The quality for mountaineering．

The money was sent to reduce debt （債務） for some of the poorest countries in the world．That program was aimed to increase debt assistance and provide it faster than in the past．As a result，twenty-three countries received debt assistance last year as compared to seven countries the year before．
The World Bank does more than just provide loans，however．It believes that continued poverty reduction comes from investing in the people of a country-especially through education and health programs．
The World Bank employs engineers，economists，public policy experts and social scientists to create these kinds of programs．These professionals also provide developing countries with the necessary technical help to carry out the programs．
The Bank has helped to make great progress in developing nations，where life expectancy （壽命） has increased and baby and child deaths have decreased，and more adults now can read than in the past．
However，at recent World Bank meetings，opponents say Bank programs make developed nations richer and developing nations poorer．Others say the organization's activities result in environmental damage．
66．The World Bank aims to．A
A．help better people living conditions in poor countries
B．help reduce debts for some of the poorest countries in the world

D．Creating health programs．
69．According to the passage，opponents are against the World Bank becauseD．
A．it has wasted a large amount of money
B．it has helped the poor countries a lot
C．it has resulted in environmental pollution
D．it has widened the economic gaps between the rich and the poor nations．
70．This passage is mainly aboutC．
A．the development of the World Bank        
B．the activities of the World Bank
C．the assistance programs of the World Bank

6．Plants are very important living things．Life could not go on if there were no plants．This is because plants can make food from air，water and sunlight．Animals and man cannot make food from air，water and sunlight．Animals get their food by eating plants and other animals．Therefore animals and man need plants in order to live．This is why we find that there are so many plants around us．
If you look carefully at the plants around you，you will find that there are two kinds of plants：flowering plants and non-flowering plants．
Flowering plants can make seeds．The seeds are  protected by the fruits．Some fruits have one seed，some have two，three or four，and some have many seeds．But a few fruits have no seeds at all．An example of a fruit without seeds is the banana fruit．
Most non-flowering plants do not grow from seeds．They grow from spores（胚芽）．Spores are very small．Some spores are so small and light that they can float in the air．We may say that spores are quite the same as seeds．When these spores are all on wet and shady places，they usually grow into new plants．

40．The main idea of the first paragraph is thatA．
A．plants are important for life      
B．plants cannot grow without air
C．there are many plants in the world 
D．we can not live without water
41．What can we infer（推斷） from the passage？D
A．Of all living things animals are most important
B．Spores are seeds
C．All fruits of flowering plants have seeds
D．Without plants，man will die out
42．This passage may be taken fromC．
A．a(chǎn) medicine book                    B．a(chǎn) novel
C．a(chǎn) science magazine                 D．a(chǎn)n experiment report
43．The underlined word"protected"in the third paragraph can be replaced byC．
A．damaged     B．polluted      C．prevented        D．guarded．

13．The practice of students endlessly copying letters and sentences from a blackboard is a thing of the past．With the coming of new technologies like computers and smartphone，writing by hand has become something of nostalgic （懷舊的） skill．However，while today's educators are using more and more technology in their teaching，many believe basic handwriting skills are still necessary for students to be successful-both in school and in life．
Virginia Berninger，professor of educational psychology at the University of Washington，says it's important to continue teaching handwriting and help children acquire the skill of writing by hand．
Berninger and her colleagues conducted a study that looked at the ability of students to complete various writing tasks-both on a computer and by hand．The study，published in 2009，found that when writing with a pen and paper，participants wrote longer essays and more complete sentences and had a faster word production rate．
In a more recent study，Berninger looked at what role spelling plays in a student's writing skills and found that how well children spell is tied to how well they can write．"Spelling makes some of the thinking parts of the brain active which helps us access our vocabulary，word meaning and concepts．It is allowing our written language to connect with ideas．"Berninger said．
Spelling helps students translate ideas into words in their mind first and then to transcribe （轉(zhuǎn)換）"those words in the mind into written symbols on paper or keyboard and screen，"the study said．Seeing the words in the"mind's eye"helps children not only to turn their ideas into words，says Berninger，but also to spot（發(fā)現(xiàn)）spelling mistakes when they write the words down and to correct them over time．
"In our computer age，some people believe that we don't have to teach spelling because we have spell checks，"she said．"But until a child has a functional spelling ability of about a fifth grade level，they won't have the knowledge to choose the correct spelling among the options given by the computer．"

56．What makes writing by hand a thing of the past？A
A．The use of new technologies in teaching．
B．The absence of blackboard in classroom．
C．The lack of practice in handwriting．
D．The popular use of smartphones．
57．Which of the following best shows the role of spelling？B
A．Spelling improves one's memory of words．
B．Spelling ability is closely related to writing ability．
C．Spelling benefits the translation from words into ideas．
D．Spelling slows down finding exact words to express ideas．
58．What conclusion could be drawn from the passage？D
A．Functional spelling ability develops fast in the fifth grade．
B．Computers can help people with their choice of words．
C．Spell checks can take the place of spelling teaching．
D．Handwriting still has a place in today's classrooms．

10．CThe iPhone，the iPad，each of Apple's products sounds cool and has become a fashion．Apple has cleverly taken advantage of the power of the letter"i"-and many other brands are following suit．The BBC's iPlayer-which allows Web users to watch TV programs on the Internet-adopted the title in 2008．A lovely bear-popular in the US and UK-that plays music and video is called"iTeddy"．A slimmed down version of London's Independent newspaper was launched last week under the name"i"．
In general，single-letter prefixes have been popular since the 1990s，when terms such as e-mail and e-commerce first came into use．
Most"i"products are targeted at young people and considering the major readers of Independent"i"，it's no surprise that they've selected this fashionable name．
But it's hard to see what's so special about the letter"i"．Why not use"a"，"b"，or"c"？According to Tony Thorne，head of the Language Center at King's College，London，"i"works because its meaning has become ambiguous．When Apple uses"i"，no one knows whether it means Internet，information，individual or interactive，Thorne told BBC Magazines．"Even when Apple created the iPad，it seems it didn't have one clear definition．"He says．
"However，thanks to Apple，the term is now associated with portability（輕便）．"Adds Thorne．
Clearly the letter"i"also agrees with the idea that the Western World is centered on the individual．Each person believes they have their own needs，and they love personalized products for this reason．
Along with"Google"and"blog"，readers of BBC Magazines voted"i"as one of the top 20 words that have come to define the last decade．
But as history shows，people grow tired of fashion．From the 1900s to 1990s，products with"2000"in their names became fashionable as the year was associated with all things advanced and modern．However，as we entered the new century，the trend disappeared．
61．People use iPlayer toD．
A．listen to music   B．make a call  C．read newspapers  D．watch TV programs online
62．We can infer that the Independent"i"is aimed atC．
A．fashionable women       B．old readers     C．young readers    D．engineers
63．The underlined word"ambiguous"in Paragraph 4 meansB．
A．popular      B．uncertain      C．definite       D．unique
64．The writer suggests thatA．
A．the popularity of"i"products may not last long       
B．iTeddy is a live bear
C．the letter"b"replaces letter"i"to name the products  
D．"i"products are often of high quality
65．Nowadays，the"i"term often reminds people of the products which areA．
A．portable        B．environmentally friendly     C．a(chǎn)dvanced      D．recyclable．

8．You are given many opportunities in life to choose to be a victim or creator．When you choose to be a victim，the world is a cold and difficult place．"They"did things to you which caused all of your pain and suffering．"They"are wrong and bad，and life is terrible as long as"they"are around．Or you may blame yourself for all your problems，thus internalizing（內(nèi)化）your victimization．The truth is，your life is likely to stay that way as long as you feel a need to blame yourself or others．
Those who choose to be creators look at life quite differently．They know there are individuals who might like to control their lives，but they don't let this get in the way．They know they have their weaknesses，yet they don't blame themselves when they fail．Whatever happens，they have choice in the matter．They believe their dance with each sacred（神圣的）moment of life is a gift and that storms are a natural part of life which can bring the rain needed for emotional and spiritual growth．
Victims and creators live in the same physical world and deal with many of the same physical realities，yet their experience of life is worlds apart．Victims relish （沉溺）in anger，guilt，and other emotions that cause others---and even themselves---to feel like victims，too．Creators consciously choose love，inspiration，and other qualities which inspire not only themselves，but all around them．Both victims and creators always have choice to determine the direction of their lives．
In reality，all of us play the victim or the creator at various points in our lives．One person，on losing a job or a special relationship，may feel as if it is the end of the world and sink into terrible suffering for months，years，or even a lifetime．Another with the same experience may choose to first experience the grief，then accept the loss and soon move on to be a powerful creative force in his life．
In every moment and every circumstance，you can choose to have fuller，richer life by setting a clear intention to transform the victim within，and by inviting into your life the powerful creator that you are．
