       Some problems are difficult to solve!  But there are a lot of number expressions that can help.
For example,if we put two and two together,we might come up with the right answer. We know that
two heads are better than one. It is always better to work with another person to solve a problem.
       Sometimes we can kill two birds with one stone. That is, we can complete two goals with only
one effort or action. But we must remember that two wrongs don't make a right. If someone does
something bad to you,you should not do the same to him.
       If you are going out with your girlfriend,or boyfriend,you do not want another friend to go along
on your date. You can just say to your friend:twos company, three's a crowd.
      A young child in school has to learn the three Rs. These important skills are reading, writing and
arithmetic.  These three words do not all start with the 1etter R,but they have the sound of R. Teachers
will give three cheers when their pupils do a good job.
     Some of my friends were confused and did not understand their schoolwork. They were at sixes
and sevens. In fact,they did not care whether they could finish high school. They saw 1ittle difference
between the two choices. But they were really happy when they completed their studies and graduated
from high school. They were in seventh heaven. They were on cloud nine.
     Last year,one of my friends applied for a better job at her office. I did not think she would get it. I
thought she had a hundred to one shot at the job. Other people at her office thought her chances were
a million to one. One reason was that she had been caught catching forty winks(打盹)  at the office. She
slept at her desk for short periods during the day. But her supervisor appointed her to the new job at
the eleventh hour-at the very last minute. I guess her lucky number came up.

    Ⅲ 閱讀（共兩節(jié)。滿分40分）
    閱讀理解（共15小題；每小題2分，滿分30分）
    閱讀下列短文，從每題所給的A、B、C和D項(xiàng)中，選出最佳選項(xiàng)，并在答題卡上將該項(xiàng)涂黑。
    A
    Cold weather has a great effect on how our minds and our bodies work. Maybe that is why there are so many expressions that use the word cold. For centuries, the body’s blood has been linked closely with the emotions. People who show no human emotions or feelings, for example, are said to be cold-blooded. Cold-blooded people act in merciless ways. They may do brutal things to others, and not by accident. For example, a newspaper says the police are searching for a cold-blooded killer. The killer murdered someone, not in self-defense. He seemed to kill for no reason, and with no emotion, as if taking someone’s life meant nothing. Cold can affect other parts of the body. The feet, for example. Heavy socks can warm your feet, if your feet are really cold. But there is an expression -- to get cold feet -- that has nothing to do with cold or your feet.
    The expression means being afraid to do something you had decided to do. For example, you agree to be president of an organization. But then you learn that all the other officers have resigned. All the work of the organization will be your responsibility. You are likely to get cold feet about being president when you understand the situation.
    Cold can also affect your shoulder. You give someone the cold shoulder when you refuse to speak to them. You treat them in a distant, cold way. The expression probably comes from the physical act of turning your back toward someone, instead of speaking to him face-to-face. You may give a cold shoulder to a friend who has not kept a promise he made to you. Or, to someone who has lied about you to others.
    A cold fish is not a fish. It is a person. But it is a person who is unfriendly, unemotional and shows no love or warmth. A cold fish does not offer much of himself to anyone.
    Out in the cold is an expression often heard. It means not getting something that everybody else got. A person might say that everybody but him got a pay raise, that he was left out in the cold. And it is not a pleasant place to be.
    41. The passage is intended to tell us that______.
    A. cold weather has a great effect on human bodies
    B. many English expressions contain the word cold
    C. cold is a word closely linked with human emotions
    D. the word cold has many different meanings in English
    42. The underlined word brutal in paragraph 1 most probably means _______.
    A. impolite      B. illegal      C. cruel          D. extreme
    43. Which of the following expressions can best describe a person who is unwilling to offer anything to others?
    A. Cold-blooded.                 B. To get cold feet.
    C. A cold shoulder.                D. A cold fish.
    44. You can say Tom ______ if the teacher gives all the boys except him a pen as a prize.
    A. is given the cold shoulder
    B. is left out in the cold
    C. has got cold feet
    D. is murdered by a cold-blooded killer
    45. We can draw a conclusion from the passage that ______.
    A. all the expressions containing the word cold have a negative meaning
    B. all the expressions containing the word cold have something to do with cold
    C. People who show no human emotions or feelings have cold blood
    D. Many parts of the human body can be badly affected by cold.

    第三部分：閱讀理解（共20小題；每小題2分，滿分40分）
    閱讀下列短文，從每題所給的A、B、C、D四個(gè)選項(xiàng)中，選出最佳選項(xiàng)，并在答題卡上將該項(xiàng)涂黑。
    A
    Bargaining is an art at Xiu Shui Market in Beijing. The following tips can help you get good offers for most things you buy, especially for clothing.
    Be aware that the starting price offered by the seller is at least 40% over the general price acceptable. It’s usually 80% over. It can be up to 150% over. So, always try to drop the seller’s offering price as much as possible before opening your mouth with a price.
    Have an idea of the value of what you want. You can consult your Chinese friends or the hotel staff about the price. You may not be able to get the lowest prices stated at Xiu Shui Market, especially on weekends or festival seasons when there are lots of tourists around.
    Do walk away once you’ve offered your final price while the seller is not ready to accept. If you get called back, you know you are close. If you do not get called back, go to a similar stall(攤位) and try again with a slightly higher price. Note that if you’ve made a deal, you am then expected to buy the item.
    You will help your chances at getting a good price by being confident, patient, and friendly. Treat it as a kind of game to get the most out of it—getting angry or rode will never help to bring the price down.
    56. When can you get the lowest price at Xiu Shui Market according to the passage?
    A. When the sellers are busy.                       B. On crowded weekends.
    C. When there’re few buyers.                       D. On festival seasons.
    57. The underlined part “a deal” (in Paragraph 4) most probably means      .
    A. an appointment with someone                    B. an agreement in business
    C. a choice in shopping                            D. a delivery of goods
    58. ff the seller accepts your final price, you should       .
    A. walk away and wait for the seller to call you back
    B. go on bargaining for a lower price
    C. go to a similar stall for a better price
    D. pay the seller for what you want
    59. From the tips we can learn that the seller’s offer may be affected by       .
    A. the buyer’s manners    B. the seller’s position   C. Chinese friends     D. hotel staff

         So long as teachers fail to distinguish between teaching and learning, they will continue to undertake to do
    for which only children can do for themselves. Teaching children to read is not passing reading on to them. It
    is certainly not endless hours spent in activities about reading. Douglas insists that "reading cannot be taught
    directly and schools should stop trying to do the impossible."
         Teaching and learning are two entirely different processes. They differ in kind and function. The function
    of teaching is to create the conditions and the climate that will make it possible for children to devise the most
    efficient system for teaching themselves to read. Teaching is also public activity: It can be seen and observed.
         Learning to read involves all that each individual does not make sense of the world of printed language.
    Almost all of it is private, for learning is an occupation of the mind, and that process is not open to public
    scrutiny. If teacher and learner roles are not interchangeable, what then can be done through teaching that will
    aid the child in knowledge. Smith has one principal rule for all teaching instructions."Make learning to read
    easily, which means making reading a meaningful, enjoyable and frequent experience for children."
         When the roles of teacher and learner are seen for what they are, and when both teacher and learner fulfill
    them appropriately, then much of the pressure and feeling of failure for both is eliminated. Learning to read is
    made easier when teachers create an environment where children are given the opportunity to solve the problem of learning to read by reading.
    1. The problem with the reading course as mentioned in the first paragraph is that____.
    A. it is one of the most difficult school courses
