My brother-in-law lifted out a package in which was delicate lingerie(女式內(nèi)衣)“Jan bought it 8 years ago   36   she never wore it. She was   37   it for a special occasion.” He put it with the other clothes we were taking to the mortician(殯儀員). “Don't save anything for a special occasion. Every day when you're   38   is a special gift.” he said.

I'm trying not to put off, or save anything that would add   53   and color to our lives. Every morning when I open my eyes, I tell myself it is   54  . Every day, every minute, every breath truly is a(n)  55   from God.

When should a child start learning to read and write? This is one of the questions I am most frequently (屢次地) asked. There is no hard and fast rule, for no two are alike (同樣的), and it would be wrong to set a time when all should start being taught the intricacies (錯(cuò)綜復(fù)雜的事物) of reading letters to form words.
If a three-year-old child wants to read (or even a two-year-old child for that matter), the child has the right (權(quán)利) to be given every encouragement (鼓勵(lì)). The fact that he might later be “bored” when joining a class of non-readers (非讀者) at child school is the teacher’s affair (事情). It is up to the teacher to see that such a child is given more advanced (高級(jí)的) reading material.
Similarly, the child who still cannot read by the time he goes to junior school at the age of seven should be given every help by teachers and parents alike. They should make certain that he is not dyslexic (having difficulty in reading 誦讀困難的).
Although parents should be careful not to force youngsters (兒童) aged two to five to learn to read (if badly done it could put them off reading for life), there is no harm in preparing them for simple recognition (識(shí)別) of letters by labeling (標(biāo)識(shí)) various items in the their rooms. For instance (比如), tie a nice piece of cardboard to their bed with BED written in neat (整齊的), big letters.
Should the young child ask his parents to teach him to read, and if the parents are capable (足以勝任的) of doing so, such an attraction (吸引) should not be ignored (對(duì)……不予理會(huì)). But the task should never be made to look like a hard job and the child should never be forced to continue, or his interest should start to flag (變?nèi)?.
1 This passage is mainly about ____ .
A. what qualities people teaching children reading should have
B. difference age groupings of children to be taught reading
C. when and how children should be taught reading
D. various problems of children who start learning to reading
2 In the writer’s opinion, children start learning to read ____ .
A. early and fast     B. at different time C. by a certain rule D. from word games
3 A three-year-old child who wants to read should ____ .
A. be encouraged   B. go to an infant school
C. start from fun stories D. join a class of non-readers
4The purpose of labeling items in the room is to ____ .
A. make it more colorful
B. teach children to write neatly
C. help children recognize simple letters
D. force children to develop the habit of
5 The writer suggest that ____ .
A. children should ask their parents to teach them to read
B. children should not feel bored if given advanced reading material
C. children starting to read should ask specialists for help
D. children should be taught with patience , care and a sense of humor

Quality after-school programs are designed to improve academic performance, decrease youth crimes and other high -risk behaviors, and help young people grow into healthy, successful adults.
The effect of quality after-school programs on academic performance is clear. Studies show that students who take part in such programs show better work habits, higher rates of homework completion, improved grades, and higher scores on achievement tests. They also have fewer absences and are less likely to blame. After-school programs also influence high-risk teen behavior. Various studies show decreased rates of crime, drug use, and teen sex among youth who join in well-run after-school programs when compared to similar youth who do not. Finally, after-school programs play an important role in supporting the following fields of development: physical development, mental development and social development. Thus, one can safely say that after-school programming is an effective method to help young people become contributing members of society.
Although there is enough proof from both small and large assessments that after-school programs can make a positive difference, it is important to note that not all programs are equal. First, dosage(時(shí)量)matters —young people who attend the most hours over the most years benefit more than members who attend less often or over a shorter period of time. Next, after-school programs make a bigger difference for those students who need help most and have the fewest choices. Finally, program qualities matter. After-school programs work best when they create unique opportunities for youth. They should provide opportunities, skill building meaningful involvement, expression suggestion, service, and work. Staff characteristics make an important difference in the quality of a program. The adults should treat youth as partners, create safe and fair environment, encourage personalized involvement, and actively create learning opportunities. In short, although after-school programs have promising future, how they are  designed and run matters.
1. Quality after-school programs can not help the students       .
A. have fewer attendances            B. improve academic performance
C. have high scores on tests           D. decrease high-risk teen behavior
2. According to the passage, a good after-school program is usually determined by       .
a. its unique opportunities            b. safe and fair environments
c. work staff characteristics           d. students’ willingness and family backgrounds
A. a, b, c, d          B. a, b, c       C. a, c, d         D. b, c, d
3. The main intention of the writer is to       .
A. present the problems with quality after -school programs
B. warn school leaders of quality after-school programs
C. compare quality after-school programs with bad ones
D. give an introduction of quality after -school programs
4. Which of the following structures suits the passage best?
   A. Quality Aims      
     After-school   Effects
      Program      Analysis   Conclusion
   B. Quality Aims      
     After-school   Causes    Effects

A child survivor of the Indian Ocean tsunami and a girl from the United States who offered help met for the first time after the disaster.
The 2004 Indian Ocean tsunami destroyed Nada Luthfiyyah’s small town in Aceh. Her parents and two brothers were among the 160,000 people who died in the disaster. Maggie Hamilton’s classmates in the state of Michigan decided to make and sell bracelets (手鐲) to raise money for the victims. Maggie, who was 9 years old at the time, wrote a letter to survivors to offer help. Nada was selected from her class to respond with a letter of thanks.
Three and a half years later, the two girls met for the first time. Their meeting was arranged by the Indonesian government, and was used as a symbol of the two countries’aid relationship. Their letters were quoted by diplomats (外交官)of both countries.
Maggie, visiting the town under reconstruction, said she did not expect that her letter would draw so much attention, but, she said, the experience helped to make her more active in volunteering work. "I’ve been volunteering at a nursing home in Ohio. I just want to help people whenever I can," Maggie said.
Juanda, the spokesman for Indonesia’s tsunami reconstruction agency, says the meeting of the two girls serves as a symbol of their informal relationship. It will represent the international community’s role in Aceh’s future. "I think what we can learn from this experience is that Nada from Aceh and Maggie from the U.S. are able to share their experiences, friendship, knowledge and support," Juanda says.
Maggie says she wants to learn Indonesian and hopes to have Nada visit her home in Michigan sometime, perhaps next year.
1. Nada and Maggie first made contact with each other through ______.
A. letters                              B. visiting the diplomats
C. arrangements by the government         D. informal visits
2. From the text we know that ______.
A. Maggie and Nada’s friendship is a symbol of the two countries’ friendship
B. 16,000 people lost their lives in the 2004 Indian Ocean tsunami
C. Maggie volunteered to work in the reconstruction after the tsunami
D. Maggie is now a volunteer working in Nada’s hometown
3. The text mainly tells us that ______.
A. Indonesian and American girls build friendship after a tsunami
B. the Indian Ocean tsunami influenced the USA
C. letters are an advantage in building friendships

第二部分 閱讀理解(共兩節(jié),滿(mǎn)分50分)
第一節(jié) 閱讀下列短文,從每題所給的四個(gè)選項(xiàng)(A、B、C和D)中,選出最佳選項(xiàng),并在答題卡上將該項(xiàng)涂黑。(共20小題;每小題2分,滿(mǎn)分40分)
I grew up in a house where the TV was seldom turned on and with one wall in my bedroom entirely lined with bookshelves, most of my childhood was spent on books I could get hold of. In fact, I grew up thinking of reading as natural as breathing and books unbelievably powerful in shaping perspectives (觀(guān)點(diǎn)) by creating worlds we could step into, take part. in. and live in.
With this unshakable belief, I, at. fourteen, decided to become a writer. Here too, reading became useful. Every writer starts off knowing that he has something to say, but being unable to find the right ways to say it. He has to find his own voice by reading widely and discovering which parts of the writers he agrees or disagrees with, or agrees with so strongly that it reshapes his own world. He cannot write without loving to read, because only through reading other people’s writing can one discover what works, what doesn’t and, in the end, together with lots of practice, what voice he has.
Now I am in college, and have come to realize how important it is to read fiction (文學(xué)作品).As a. law student, my reading is in fact limited to subject matter—the volume (量) of what I have to read for classes every week means there is little time to read anything else. Such reading made it all the clearer to me that I live in a very small part in this great place called life. Reading fiction reminds me that there is life beyond my own. It allows me to travel across the high seas and along the Silk Road, all from the comfort of my own armchair, to experience, though secondhand, exciting experiences that I wouldn't necessarily be able to have in my lifetime.
1. What can be inferred about the author as a child?
A.  He never watched TV.
B.  He read what he had to.
C.  He found reading unbelievable.
D.  He considered reading part of his life.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                            
2. The underlined word "voice" in the second paragraph most probably means “____________”.
A.  an idea      B. a sound quality  C. a way of writing    D. a world to write about
3. What effect does reading have on the author?
A.  It helps him to realize his dream.
B.  It opens up a wider world for him.
C.  It makes his college life more interesting.
D.  It increases his interest in worldwide travel.
4. Which of the following can be the best title of this text?
A.  Why do I read?  B.  How do I read?  C.  What do I read?  D.  When do I read?
