Everybody tried to   36  the Tomorrow before it fell to the ground.They thought if they   37  beforehand what the Tomorrow carries, they could   38  for it.So they put great nets on the trees, seeking to catch one   39  it changed his feather.Yet although they tried every means, the birds   40   and flew to the ground as Todays.

I was in the queue for the supermarket checkout(付款臺) earlier today.All of the checkouts were    36  , and the woman behind me was not happy! Every word that came from her mouth was a(n)    37  ! She wasn’t happy with the number of checkouts      38   ; she wasn’t happy with the amount of shopping some people had in their baskets; she wasn’t happy because this supermarket didn’t have a stand where she    39   scan her own shopping.
I listened to her    40  looking around as I loaded my stuff onto the conveyor belt (傳送帶).I didn’t want    41   to do with that kind of attitude, and if ever I’d felt like letting someone go     42    of me, it wouldn’t be such a woman!
But then I    43  back.Standing beside the woman was a five-year-old girl,    44   her granddaughter.The girl’s part of the shopping    45  of some comic books.
I couldn’t    46  it.I pushed my shopping back to the end of the conveyor belt,     47   a space.“After you,” I said to the woman and the girl, and    48   them to a big    49   .The woman was delighted, and even    50   to complain ---- until she was walking away.
So,  51  bother having helped? It was because that little girl was probably taking in her granny’s complaint like a sponge(海綿).She was learning how to    52   situations like that by listening to her granny.I’d seen that I could interrupt that complaining, and put a smile and some   53   into the middle of it.
We can all complain; we can all react    54   , but it doesn’t have to be like that.And, even if only for a few     55    , I wanted to leave that little soul with just a glimpse of another way.

Here’ s an unusual story: a diamond ring
was recently found in an egg. The    

magician, Liu Qian, discovered it, in front          
of an audience of millions at CCTV’ s Spring
Festival Gala. Liu’ s magic tricks have made the centuries-old art of magic fashionable once again, and made him the hottest magician in China.
As a seasoned young magician from Taiwan, Liu is popular worldwide for his magic shows. Countries he has performed in include the U
nited States, Japan, South Korea and the UK.
Witnessing something impossible happen right before your eyes is the root of people’ s love for magic.
“It’ s actually thinking rather than one’ s manipulation(操作)skills; that is more important to achieving a successful magic show. We think carefully about how to design the shows creatively, to make them appear more interesting.  ”Liu said.

Liu Qian’ s success dated back to his childhood. Born in 1976 in Taiwan, he found himself attracted to a magic toy in a shop when he was seven years old. At the age of 12, he won Taiwan’ s Youth Magic Contest, which was judged by the great American magician, David Copperfield.
Yet, Liu never planned on becoming a professional magician. He studied Japanese literature at university and only hoped to be an amateur  (業(yè)余的) magician in his spare time. However, his failure to find a proper job after graduation pushed him towards magic as a career.
To refine his performing skills, he has performed on streets, roads and fields for passers-by, policemen and farmers.
“Street shows are the biggest challenge for us magicians. We have to deal with unexpected situations and tough crowds, ” Liu said.
小題1:What does the underlined word  “seasoned ” in Paragraph 2 mean?
A.季節(jié)性的B.剛出道的C.老練的D.職業(yè)的
小題2: The story is about_____.
A.how Liu Qian became China’ s hottest magician
B.why people love magic
C.what magic tricks are
D.how fashionable the magic is
小題3:People love to watch magic because_____.
A.they can’ t figure out the secret of magic
B.it arouses their curiosity
C.they love watching magicians make the impossible happen
D.it is a centuries-old art
小題4:Which of the following is the key reason that Liu Qian decided to make magic his career?
A.He was interested in magic when he was little.
B.He had won Taiwan’ s Youth Magic Contest.
C.He became an amateur magician in his spare time.
D.He couldn’ t find an acceptable job after graduation

Most 23-year-olds have not done enough in life to be worthy of having their own documentary(紀錄片)
  Most 23-year-olds aren't LeBron James.
  The NBA superstar, who recently won gold at the Beijing Olympics, has just released More Than a Game. It is a documentary that follows his rise to stardom (明星地位) and how he and four childhood friends overcame long odds to win a national championship in high school.
  Combining footage (鏡頭) taken during James' career at St. Vincent-St. Mary High School in Akron, Ohio, US, along with one-on-one interviews by writer/director Kris Belman, home videos, and personal family photographs, the film is about much more than basketball. At its core (核心) is a story of friendship, loyalty and love.
  "We set out with a goal as kids and we wanted to accomplish that someway, somehow by using basketball as a tool, not knowing that it was going to create other opportunities for us," James said. "We didn't know it was going to create a brotherhood and trust. We grew from kids into young men."
  While James is the star, his former teammates, Dru Joyce III, Sian Cotton, Willie McGee and Romeo Travis, play a major role in the film.
  Their journey began together as 8-year-old boys, winds through years traveling all over America playing in basketball tournaments and finishes in their senior season at St. Vincent-St. Mary High School.
  At the time, Belman was a college film student. He set out to film James and his friends' season as his final school project, a 10-minute documentary. But after gaining the trust of the players and coach Dru Joyce, Belman spent two months filming and eventually teamed with producer Harvey Mason Jr to the full-length feature.
  James hopes the film will inspire youngsters (年輕人).
  "We set out with a goal when we were eight and we accomplished it when we were 18," he said. "It's a great story and I wanted to get it out to kids that have a dream, that they should continue to go after it, believe in it and live it if they want to accomplish something."
小題1:LeBron James achieved his goal set at 8 when        .
A.he won a gold medal at the Beijing Olympics
B.He won a national championship in high school
C.he became a collage student
D.he was interviewed by Kris Belman
小題2:Which of the following is unlikely to be included in the description of James?
A.Friendly.B.Faithful.C.Hardworking.D.Self-centered.
小題3:More Than a Game is          .
A.James’ favorite story about his childhood
B.a(chǎn) documentary filmed by James’ classmate
C.a(chǎn) film made by Belman
D.a(chǎn)n article a bout James’ high school life
小題4:We can learn from the passage that More Than a Game is       .
A.inspiring B.dullC.puzzlingD.imaginary

I didn’t realize how short I was until I started school. There, a few kids picked on(欺負)me, calling me names. Then I knew. After that, I began to hate the first day of school each year. I didn’t know who was new and would stare at me as I struggled to climb the school bus stairs. Some of the kids would point and say, “Look at that kid. Look at her.”
As time went on, I just tried to smile and accept the fact that I was going to be noticed my whole life. I was determined to make my uniqueness an advantage rather than a disadvantage. My friends became increasingly protective. They’d help me up the bus steps. If people were cruel, they would take them aside and correct them.
What I lacked in height, I made up for in personality----my ability to laugh, even at myself. For example, one time I was reaching into the washing machine at my parents’ house to grab the wet clothes. I fell all the way in and yell for Mother, who was sitting nearby reading the paper. Watching feet flying everywhere, she laughed quietly and said, “I should leave you in there.” I laughed with her.
I’m 47 now, and the stares have not decreased as I’ve grown older. People ask my friends if I live in a dollhouse. They look in disbelief when they see me get out of my car on the driver’s side. During those times, I try to keep a good attitude. When people are rude, I remind myself, “Look what else I have----a great family, nice friends…”
小題1:What is the main idea of the second and third paragraphs?
A.How the writer changed her disadvantage to advantage.
B.The writer’s friends and mother loved her deeply.
C.The writer had many friends helping her.
D.The writer had the ability to laugh.
小題2:By saying “the stares have not decreased” in the last paragraph, the author suggests that____.
A.she is able to live a happy life like a normal person
B.she isn’t afraid of being noticed by others any more
C.some people still don’t treat her as a normal person
D.more and more people treat her with respect now
小題3:How is the author feeling now about her situation?
A.Quite optimistic.
B.Very satisfied.
C.Deeply upset.
D.Rather anxious.
小題4: We can infer that the author believes that_________.
A.society should help the disabled as much as possible
B.only your parents and friends can help you
C.what people say about you is none of your business
D.a(chǎn)ll people should be treated with respect

The London Marathon is an annual event and of the thousands of runners who take part, many of them have a story to tell as to why they are running the 26.2 mile (42.2 km) course around London.
The men's race was won by Kenyan, Martin Lel, who finished the race in just two hours and five minutes, a personal best time for him. Irina Mikitenko was the winner of the women's race and this was astonishingly only her second race at marathon distance!
There was also a group of 24 runners who have competed in every single one of the 28 London marathons. Jeff Aston is one of them and at 60 years old, he finished in just over three and a half hours.
A lot of the non-competitive runners take part in the marathon to raise money for charity. Jeff estimates he has raised about £25,000 (350,000 RMB) over the 28 years he has been running.
Jane Tomlinson is a well-known name in the UK. She raised millions for charity doing long cycle rides, marathons and triathlons while struggling against terminal cancer, a battle she sadly lost last year. In honor of Jane, her husband and daughter took part in the marathon. They managed to raise £20,000 (280,000 RMB) for a charity set up in Jane's name.
Another astonishing one was blind runner Dave Heeley completing the marathon. As if that wasn't enough, this was his seventh marathon in seven days, as he took part in a special challenge which took him to seven countries.
小題1:Which of the following can be the best title of the passage?
A.A Variety of Athletic RunnersB.London Marathon
C.Inspirational EventD.Astonishing Marathon Stories
小題2:What do we know from the passage?
A.The London Marathon is held every year to raise money for charity.
B.Jane Tomlinson together with her husband took part in the marathon.
C.Dave Heeley is an inspiring marathon runner.
D.Kenyan, Martin Lel won the men's race just over three and a half hours.
小題3:The underlined word “triathlons” in the fifth paragraph probably refers to   .
A.a(chǎn) formal meetingB.a(chǎn) special challenge
C.a(chǎn) kind of diseaseD.a(chǎn)n athletic competition

SECTION B
Directions: For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A, B, C and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.
I remember my dad teaching me the power of language at a very young age. Not only did he understand that specific  36  can affect our mental pictures, but he understood that words are a  37  programming factor in lifelong success.
One particularly unforgettable event occurred when I was eight. As a child, I was always climbing trees, poles and  38  around upside down from the rafters(屋椽) of our lake house.  39 , it came to no surprise for my dad to find me at the top of a 30-foot tree, swinging back and forth. My little eight-year-old  40  didn’t realize that the tree could break or I could get hurt. I just thought it was enjoyable to be up so high. My older cousin, Tammy, was also hanging in the same tree. Her mother also  41  us at exactly the same time as my dad did. About that time, a huge gust(一陣) of wind blew through the tree. I could hear the leaves rustle(嘎嘎地響) and feel the tree begin to sway. I remember my dad’s  42  over the wind, “Bart, Hold on tightly!”So I did.
The next thing I heard was Tammy’s mother yelling, “Tammy, don’t fall!” Tammy did  43  . My dad later explained to me that the mind has a very  44 time processing a negative image. It takes seventeen positive statements to offset(抵消) one negative statement. That means it might  45  seventeen compliments(賀詞/道賀) to offset the emotional  46  of one criticism.
These are concepts that are especially useful in developing yourself. How many compliments do you give yourself daily and how often do you criticize yourself? Try to  47  yourself a lifetime of positive programming by complimenting yourself, or at least think about the kind of programming you are doing to yourself on a daily basis. Remember: try to make positive self-talk a daily practice and you will succeed some day.
36. A. reactions             B. behaviors                 C. words                  D. expressions
