A dozen years ago, when I traveled back to my hometown on the sad occasion of Dad’s death, the mailboxes along the way reminded me of some of his stories. I thought I knew them all, but that wasn’t quite the case.
As I drove through Marcellus, I noticed two lamp poles (街灯柱), one on each side of the street. When my dad was around, those poles supported wooden boxes that were about four feet off the ground. One box was painted green, and the other was red, and each had a slot (狭缝) at the top with white lettering: SANTA CLAUS, NORTH POLE. For years children had dropped letters to Santa through those slots.
Mom and I were sitting at the kitchen table when Frank Townsend came. He had been Dad’s postmaster and great frien for many years. So we all sat down at the table and began to tell stories.
At one point Frank looked at me across the table with tears in his eyes. “What are we going to do about the letters this Christmas?” he asked.
“The letters?”
“I guess you never knew.”
“Knew what?”
“Remember when you were a kid and you used to put your letters to Santa in green and red boxes on Main Street? It was your dad that answered all those letters that the kids wrote every year.”
I just sat there with tears in my eyes. It wasn’t hard for me to imagine Dad sitting at the old table in our basement reading those letters and answering each one. I have since spoken with several of the people who received Christmas letters during their childhood, and they told me how amazed they were that Santa had known so much about their homes and families. For me, just knowing that story about my father was the gift of a lifetime.

There have been many arguments that football should not be played in high schools because it causes too many injuries, but it can be played safely. Besides, there are contributions (贡献) that the sport makes to schools: it raises money and it encourages kids to get good grades.
Research shows there are ways to make football safe. One of the most common injuries in football is a concussion (脑震荡). Although most people think mouth guards are for your teeth, they actually protect you from concussions. Here is why. If your upper and lower jaws snap together, it makes your brain hit your skull, which can cause the concussion. Also there is a lot of equipment being invented that makes the players avoid concussions such as the concussion safe helmet (头盔). There have also been many rule changes in the NCAA and NFL that make football safer. One is if two players make helmet to helmet contact, then they would be fined. Another main rule that helps a player recover fully from a concussion is that he can’t come back after a concussion until 2 months after the injury.
Football makes contributions to high schools. If you win the championship game, the school gets more than $400,000. That money could be spent on hiring new teachers, getting new books, or providing scholarships for students. If there was no high school football, the schools would have fewer teachers and less teaching equipment. Cutting high school football means a smaller budget (预算) for schools.
Football encourages students to get good grades. The players have to have a certain grade point average. This encourages kids to work harder. Also, it helps kids come together, study together, and sometimes even make their own homework club. Like when it was football season for our team, we would go into our coaches’ room and do our homework together.
43. From Paragraph 2, we can learn that .
A. mouth guards are only for football players’ teeth
B. concussions are not common injuries for football players
C. the concussion safe helmet will be avoided by football players
D. mouth guards can protect football players against concussions
44. According to the new rules, if two players make helmet to helmet contact, they .
A. will have to pay some money B. can’t come back to play again
C. will be examined for a concussion
D. can’t play in the following two months
45. What is implied about football in Paragraph 3?
A. It costs too much for high schools.
B. It is a moneymaker for high schools.
C. It means a smaller budget for high schools.
D. It means having to hire more teachers for high schools.
46. What is this passage mainly about?
A. How to make contributions to high schools.
B. Why many high schools say no to football.
C. Why football should be played in high schools.
D. How to make sure that football can be played safely.
D
It’s summertime, and the living is easy. School is out and the weather is great. For many Americans, this is the season to travel.
Throughout their history, Americans have been people on the move. The early comers had to travel to get to the New World. Once they arrived, they settled along the East Coast. But they weren’t satisfied to stay there. Explorers and traders journeyed to the unknown western territories (边界). Later, settlers moved west to develop these new areas. As a result of this westward movement, Americans finally controlled the whole continent — from the Atlantic to the Pacific. Even today, Americans seem unable to stay put. Research says that the average American moves every five years.
Besides their habit of changing addresses, Americans are used to traveling. Their jobs may even require them to take frequent business trips. Most companies provide an annual (一年一次的) vacation for their employees, and people often use that time to travel. Camping out in the great outdoors is attractive to adventurous types. Some travel in comfortable vehicles to camp out in comfort, while others “rough it” by sleeping in tents.
Most Americans prefer to travel within their nation’s borders. Why? For one thing, it’s cheaper than traveling abroad, and there’s no language problem. But besides that, the vast American territory offers many tourist attractions. Nature lovers can enjoy beaches, mountains, canyons, lakes and a wealth of natural wonders. Major cities offer visitors plenty of urban delights. The convenience of modern freeways, railways and airplanes makes travel in America as easy as pie.
Many American vacations are as unique as the people who take them. History lovers seek out famous historical sites and museums. Environmentalists prefer “green vacations”. Others hit the water to go fishing, skiing or white-water rafting. Daring souls go for safaris (游猎) in faraway places from Africa to Asia.
47. What can we infer from the second paragraph?
A. It’s good for Americans to be on the move.
B. Americans move too much.
C. Americans will settle soon.
D. Early settlers moved more than modern Americans do.
48. Which of the following is NOT the reason why Americans like to travel within their own country?
A. They can save money.
B. They will have no communication difficulties.
C. They love their own country much.
D. They can still enjoy many tourist attractions.
49. What makes traveling so easy for Americans?
A. Their large income. B. Modern means of transport.
C. Their lifestyle.
D. The annual vacation given by companies.
50. How do you best understand the underlined sentence in the last paragraph?
A. Vacations are suitable for different kinds of people.
B. Vacations leave unique memories with people.
C. People choose vacations based on their special interest.
D. There are many different kinds of vacations available.第二节 (共5小题; 每小题2分, 满分10分)

Once upon a time, there lived a great king. He was rich but unsatisfied all the time. One day, the king came across a servant who was singing happily when he worked. 51 He asked the servant, “Why are you so happy?” The servant replied, “Your Majesty, I am nothing but a servant, and my family and I don’t need too much.”
52 Later that day, he asked his advisor’s advice. After hearing the whole story, the advisor said, “Your Majesty, just place 99 gold coins in a bag and leave it at the servant’s doorstep, and you will know the answer.”
When the servant saw the bag, he took it into his house. When he opened the bag, he let out a great shout of joy. 53 He began to count them. After several counts, he was at last convinced that there were 99 coins. He looked everywhere to find the 100th one, but did not find it.
54 He overworked, and scolded (责骂) his family for not helping him make that 100th gold coin. He stopped singing while he worked. Seeing the great change, the king finally knew that it was desires that destroyed the servant’s happy life. And he also found the secret to be happy.
We can be happy, even with very little in our lives. 55 We lose our sleep, our happiness, and we hurt the people around us. All these are a price for our growing needs and desires.
A. The king was very amazed.
B. There were so many gold coins!
C. The king wasn’t satisfied with his answer.
D. From that day on, the servant’s life was changed.
E. The servant began to live a happier life from that day on.
F. Look at what you have done, not what you have not been able to do.
G. But we want even more the minute we’re given something bigger and better!

C.in learning D.for learning
答案与解析：A 解答本题可以从理解题意入手，很显然句意应理解为“学生应总是想学习”，而不是“对学习感到好奇”，只能说“对某些方面的知识感到好奇”，由此可以认定该句结构应为be curious to do。

A.on; for B.to; on
C.on; to D.no; with
答案与解析：C report on sth.关于……的报告;submit...to...向……提交……句意：他说他已经把关于这件事的报告上交给了主任。

“Yes，I'll be ready at nine in the morning.Goodbye，dear，and thanks again.”It had not been an easy telephone call for Mrs.Robson to make.Her daughter had been very kind，of course，and had immediately agreed to pick her up and drive her to the station，but Mrs.Robson hated to admit that she needed help.Since her husband had died ten years before，she had prided herself on her independence.She had continued to live in their little house，alone.
On the evening，however，she was standing at her livingroom window，staring out at the SOLD notice in the small front garden.Her feelings were mixed.Of course，she was sad at the thought of leaving the house，as it was full of so many memories.But at the same time she was looking forward to spending her last year near the sea，back in the little seaside town where she had been born.With the money from the sale of the house，she had bought a little flat there.She turned from the living room window，and looked round at the walls.There was a small fish tank，with two goldfish in it.When asked why，her husband used to say，“It's nice to have something alive in the room.”Since he had passed away，she had always kept some goldfish，and had always had“something alive in the room”.
The next morning，as her train was pulling out of the station，Mrs.Robson called to her daughter，“Kate，you won't forget to collect the goldfish，will you?The children will love them.It's...”
“I know，”Kate interrupted gently.“It's nice to have something alive in the room.”

Albert Einstein was probably the most famous scientist of the twentieth century. He changed scientific thinking in the modern world. He is generally considered as the greatest physicist who ever lived. What’s more, he devoted a lot of his time and energy to working for human rights and progress.
In 1933, while Einstein was visiting England and the United States, the Nazi government of Germany took all his things away, including his position and his citizenship. Einstein then settled down in the United States. In 1939, Einstein, who loved peace—afraid of a world in which only Hitler would had an atomic bomb(原子弹)—tried hard to persuade President Franklin D. Roosevelt in a famous letter to have the United States start uranium research. That Germany, after all, had no bomb, and that the first bomb would fall on Japan, could not have been expected. After the war, Einstein never stopped working for peace and reducing the number of soldiers in the world.
Although he wasn’t connected with any accepted religion(宗教), Einstein felt that trust in a personal God was too special an idea to be suitable to the God at work in this universe, but he never believed that the universe was one of chance or disorder. The universe to him was one of pure law and order. He once said, “God may know everything, but he is not hateful.”

A. no scientist is as great as Albert Einstein during this century
B. Albert Einstein was likely to be the greatest scientist of his time
C. Albert Einstein made the first atomic bomb for the United States of America
D. Albert Einstein gave up his German citizenship for political reasons

B. have won another Nobel Prize for physics
C. not have advised starting uranium research in the U. S. A.
D. not have moved to the U. S. A.
58. Einstein in 1933.
A. visited England and the U. S. A.
B. lost everything
C. became a man without a country
D. both A and C

“That’s funny! These fellows in the middle of the plate have died.” Dr Alexander Fleming was talking to another doctor in a laboratory in London. He had been studying some germs(细菌)that he was growing on a plate. They were very dangerous germs because they caused different kinds of illnesses that could kill people. Dr Fleming found that a mould(霉菌)had floated in through the window landing on the plate. It had killed some of the germs it had touched.
“This certainly looks promising.” Fleming said. “We must grow some of this mould to see if it will kill other germs.”
He named the strange mould “penicillin”. It proved to be a killer of many germs. Fifty mice were given deadly germs and then half of them were injected(注射)with penicillin. The twenty-five untreated mice died, but twenty-four of those lived that had been treated with penicillin. Dr Fleming wrote a report about what he had found out. Hardly anybody took any notice of it.
In 1938 Dr Howard Florey, an Australian working in London, read Dr Fleming’s report and was very interested. He found that penicillin was effective in treating blood poisoning in human beings.
When World War II broke out, it was not possible to make enough penicillin in England. Dr Florey went to America where he helped to have enormous amounts of this wonderful drug made. It saved the lives of thousands of soldiers, sailors and airmen who would have died from their wounds if the hospitals had not had penicillin.

Einstein, a great scientist of the age, was almost as strange as his Theory of Relativity.
Once, while riding a street car in Berlin, he told the conductor that he had not given him the right change. The conductor counted the change again and found it to be correct, so he handed it to Einstein, saying, “The trouble with you is that you don’t know your figures.”
Einstein said that there were only twelve people living who understood his Theory of Relativity although a good many books had been written to explain it.
He had nothing but contempt(藐视)for the things most people set their hearts on—for fame and riches(财富)and luxury(奢华).
He didn’t want money or praise. He made his own happiness out of such simple things as his work and playing the violin and sailing his boat. Einstein’s violin brought him more joy than anything else in life. He said that he often thought in music.

Louis Pasteur, the famous French chemist and bacteriologist, invented “pasteurization”. In 1854 Pasteur was made head of the department of science at the University of Lille, and it was there that he made one of his most famous discoveries. Lille was a major center for wine and beer-making, and some of the local wine-makers asked Pasteur if he could help solve the problem of keeping wine fresh. At that time, it was believed that food and drinks go “bad” due to a purely chemical process (变化过程). But during a series of experiments Pasteur proved that tiny living organisms (微生物) caused food and drinks to go bad. In the case of wine and beer the organisms are already present in the form of the various yeasts (酵母) that caused the fermentation (发酵) process. Pasteur discovered that heating the wine gently for a few minutes after it had fermented would kill off the yeast that was left in the wine, with the result that the wine would remain fresh for much longer. He also proved that food and drinks could be turned bad by other organisms that were present in the air, and that they too would keep fresh much longer if they were kept in airtight containers.
The heating process was so successful that it made Pasteur famous. It was named “pasteurization” in his honour, and by about 1900 it had been widely used for processing and bottling cows’ milk. The result was a huge drop in the number of bottle-fed babies dying from infant diarrhea (婴儿腹泻) and from that time on it has been a standard treatment for milk and many other food products. This simple process has saved thousands, possibly millions, of lives worldwide.
68. Pasteur became in 1854.
A. the chairperson of the science department at the University of Lille
B. the director of a chemical laboratory at the University of Lille
C. the general manager of a large beer-making company

A. wine and beer
B. food and drinks
C. the various yeasts
D. other organisms
71. We can infer from the passage that Pasteur’s discovery .

On the first day of class, Mr Whiteson gave us a lecture about a creature(生物) called cattytiger, a kind of cat-like animal that completely disappeared during the Ice Age. He passed round a skull (头骨) as he talked, and we all felt interested and took notes while listening. Later, we had a test about that.
When he returned my paper, I was very, very surprised. There was a very large cross through each of my answers. And so it was with everyone else’s in our class. What had happened? Everyone was wondering and couldn’t wait to get the answer.
Very simple, Mr Whiteson explained. He had made up all that story about the cattytiger. There had never been such an animal. So why none of us noticed that and how could we expect good marks for the incorrect answers?
Needless to say, we got very angry. What kind of teacher was this?
We should have guessed it out, Mr Whiteson said. After all, at the very moment he was passing around the cattytiger skull (in fact, a cat’s), hadn’t he been telling us that it completely disappeared during the Ice Age? Clearly he was telling a lie. But we just kept busy making notes and none used his head. We should learn something from this. Teachers and textbooks are not always correct.
72. We failed in the test because we didn’t .
A. take notes while listening
B. show interest in what Mr Whiteson said
C. listen to the teacher carefully
D. think carefully
73. We got angry because .
A. Mr Whiteson didn’t tell us the truth about cattytiger
B. we failed in the test
C. we didn’t know why he played the joke on us
D. there was no cattytiger
74. Mr Whiteson gave us a special lesson .
A. to show his special way of teaching
B. to play a joke on us
C. to help us learn our lessons better
D. so that we would no longer believe him
75. Mr Whiteson meant that .
A. teachers couldn’t make any mistakes
B. textbooks might be wrong sometimes
C. we should speak up if we thought our teacher or the textbook was wrong
D. we shouldn’t believe our teachers because sometimes they might tell lies
