A
My wife passed away a few years ago, and I went through the worst time in my life. I even wanted to kill myself. Just for my kids, I had to continue to live and work as a small town doctor at my medical clinic in Hawaii. My kids had gone to live on the mainland, and I was alone. Then they asked me to have a family trip.
On our trip, we turned on the TV at the motel and saw the second plane crash into the World Trade Center. Seeing it falling down, I said to my kids: "I'm going to Afghanistan". And a few weeks later, International Medical Corps sent me to set up 20 clinics in provinces where people had no health care. In these field clinics surrounded by frightening shoots or deadly bombs, we were eventually serving 27,000 patients a month in a very busy schedule. Tired and nervous, I gradually had a sense of achievement, a sense of purpose, and my depression went away.
In the years to follow, I went to Indonesia after the tsunami (海嘯), Pakistan after the earthquakes, Sudan after the civil war, and Iraq after more and more bombs. Each time after disasters one after another, hundreds of people were killed, wounded and many more had to flee. We once set up movable clinics in an area with 19,000 refugees, and it was supposed to hold 13,000 originally. Flu broke out, one of the biggest killers of kids in refugee camps, and it spread like wildfire. Water and food were also serious problems. "Adventures or not?", I often asked myself.
When my wife passed away, I thought my life was done. But in reality, it was just getting started. At the end of her life, she went unconscious. I held her head in my hands and told her of all the places we would visit and the exciting adventures we would have.
I think about the moment many times during my "adventures". I didn't know how predictive those words would be. But I know that she is still with me.
56. Where has the doctor been in the past few years?
A. Some countries where he could set up clinics.  
B. Some African countries where flu broke out.
C. The places where the earthquakes happened.
D. The places that the horrible disasters struck.
57. How would the doctor describe his life after he had worked in Afghanistan?
A. Tired and troublesome.           B. Busy and risky.
C. Meaningful and helpful.          D. Frightening and depressing.
The underlined word "refugees" means people__________  
A. who are robbed, killed, or wounded    B. who suffer from flu in movable clinics
C. who like to take adventures          D. who have lost homes because of disasters
59. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
A. The doctor's wife encouraged him to work in foreign countries.
B. What the doctor said to his wife before her death became reality.
C. The doctor's adventures made him understand the love of his wife.
D. With the true love of his wife; the doctor started to change his life.

第二節(jié)閱讀下面短文，回答文章后面的5個(gè)問題。
（E）
Most people agree that the direct, assertive(過分自信的) American personality is a virtue, but it sometimes surprises foreigners. In many cultures, respect for older people or those in positions of authority keeps others from expressing their true feelings. But in the US children often argue with their parents, students may disagree with their teachers, and citizens may express opposition to the actions of government. If the soup has a fly in it or the meat is too tough to chew, the diner can complain to the waiter, if the boss makes a mistake, an employee will politely point it out.
Some  straight talks about the American personality must include the admission that Americans have their faults. The extremely competitive nature of Americans is probably their worst fault. Of course, competition isn’t always bad. As a matter of fact, it promotes excellence by encouraging individuals and business to try to do their best. But the desire to get ahead of others sometimes causes people to do things that are unkind and even dishonest. Also, Americans admire what is practical, fast, efficient, and fresh. Sometimes they fail to understand and appreciate practices that have greater respect for more traditional, leisurely ways of doing things. On the other hand, people from other cultures may dislike the practical, challenging American lifestyle.
Despite culture differences, most foreigners give Americans credit for their virtues. Americans are generally viewed as friendly, adaptable, energetic, and kindhearted. Most newcomers to the US like Americans, and the feeling is usually mutual.
Perhaps the greatest American virtue is a deep interest in new ideas and new people. In a nation of immigrants, the foreigner does not remain an outsider for long.
61.What does the passage mainly talk about? (No more than 5 words) 
____________________________________________
62.According to the passage, why do people outside America tend to avoid expressing their true feelings when they see their parents or teachers make a mistake? (No more than 15 words)
____________________________________________
63.Why is extremely competitive nature considered as one of the American faults?( No more than 20 words)
____________________________________________
64.What does the writer mean by saying “most foreigners give Americans credit for their virtues”? (No more than 10 words)
____________________________________________
65.Please explain the underlined word “immigrant” in English. (No more than 10 words) _____________________________________________

第II卷（兩部分共35分）
第四部分任務(wù)型閱讀（共10小題；每小題1分，滿分10分)
請認(rèn)真閱讀下面短文，并根據(jù)所讀內(nèi)容在文章后表格中的空格里填入最恰當(dāng)?shù)膯卧~。
注意：每空只填1個(gè)單詞。
Life or Lifestyle?
What is a lifestyle and how is that different from a life? A lifestyle is about brand names and buying identity or prestige（聲望）. Lifestyle gives a false sense of peace and acceptability that comes from others recognizing what you've bought into (as well as bought). If your car, clothes, and home are expensive, you're sophisticated and stylish. If you have the right kind of job or go to the right social gatherings, then you receive the superficial approval of others. This means that your self-esteem is always at the mercy of others, with no appreciation of you as an individual.
A life, on the other hand, is very different. A life is what you lead when you know what matters most to you. It is very simple and comes from being connected to what you know is important and being willing to put that first, no matter what others may think. When you create a life vs a lifestyle, your self-esteem comes from what's inside you, not what others think about you.
How many times have you seen someone (this used to be me!) work long hours in a job that they do not enjoy just to be able to maintain an expensive lifestyle? There was a recent commercial on TV that showed a man laughing in his yard saying: "I drive an expensive car, have a 5 bedroom home, a country club membership, a swimming pool and I'm in debt up to my eyeballs!" Every time I see this commercial I think about the book—The Millionaire Next Door. The book says that most of the people living in the largest homes are exactly like the man in the commercial and that the real millionaires are the ones you would never guess, because their focus is on creating a life vs. a lifestyle.
Lifestyle is expensive monetarily(金錢) and personally, because it costs a great deal to keep up appearances and do what you think is socially acceptable. A Life is not expensive. Rather than running out of personal or financial resources, a life generates energy and staying power. If we focus on what we wear, or what kind of car we drive, or where we live, then we are saying that how others see us is more important than what we think of ourselves. If we find out what our true beliefs and values are and choose to live by these, then the opinions of others don't drive our lives. This is not an issue of avoiding luxury for its own sake; it's about liberating yourself from the mindless consumption that society demands. It is about making the choices that agree with your values, instead of running out of your bank account or energy for no heart-driven reason.
How can you make the change? Understand the difference between a Life (being directed from within) and a Lifestyle (being directed from outside). Analyze your current lifestyle to see what it is costing you in money, time, stress, and energy to maintain it. Let go and make room for what is really important to you, what sustains you and brings you joy. Remember that who you are comes from within, not what you own.

In the doorway of my home, I looked closely at my 23-year-old son, Daniel. In a few hours he would be flying to France to     41    a different life. It was a transitional（過渡的）time in Daniel's life. I wanted to     42    him some words of significance. But nothing came from my lips, and this was not the     43     time I had let such moments pass.
When Daniel was five, I took him to the bus stop on his first day of kindergarten. He asked, “What is it going to be like, Dad? Can I do it?” Then he walked     44     the steps of the bus and disappeared inside. The bus drove away and I said nothing. A decade later, a similar     45      played itself out. I drove him to college. As I started to leave, I tried to think of something to say to give him     46     and confidence as he started this new stage of life. Again, words     47     me.
Now, as I stood before him, I thought of those     48    opportunities. How many times have I let such moments     49    ? I don't find a quiet moment to tell him what they have     50     to me. Or what he might     51     to face in the years ahead. Maybe I thought it was not necessary to say anything.
What does it matter in the course of a lifetime if a father never tells a son what he really thinks of him?     52     as I stood before Daniel, I knew that it did matter. My father and I loved each other. Yet, I always     53    never hearing him put his    54     into words. Now I could feel my palms sweat and my throat tighten. Why is it so    55   to tell a son something from the heart?
My mouth turned dry, and I knew I would be able to get out only a few words clearly. “Daniel,” I said, “If I could have picked, I would have picked you.” That's all I could say. He hugged me. For a moment, the world    56    , and there were just Daniel and me. He was saying something, but tears misted my eyes, and I couldn't understand what he was saying. All I was    57     of was the stubble（短須）on his chin as his face pressed    58   mine. What I had said to Daniel was    59   . It was nothing. And yet, it was   60    .
41. A. experience             B. spend              C. enjoy              D. shape

Life is often compared to a diary. As Barrie said: We begin by resolving to write one thing and end by writing something very different. However, to be more exact, life is much more like a growing plant. Whether we like it or not, it is the stem (葉柄) that holds the plant;  71 .
Some people say, “Let by-gones be by-gones.” This is especially the case for misanthropes (厭惡與人交往的人) who hate to recall their past events.  72 ; they hate everything—perhaps themselves, too. In times of loneliness, instead of enriching their minds by enjoying their happy memories, they blame this world for being cold. Yet we may have something very funny in the past. Why not warm up your coldness by recalling them?
Some time ago, I went boating with my two friends. Having rented a sampan, we set out. The weather was dull and unfavorable, and the wind, singing in our ears, set off the waves which uplifted the boat and let it go.  73 . Without a moment’s hesitation I laid down the oars to catch it, but I failed. I tried again and it ran away. When the third time my two friends came to my help, the boat was out of balance with us all on one side. The boat turned over. The jellyfish which we were so anxious to catch a few minutes ago now floated towards us. But this time we tried our best to get away from it and landed on the bottom of the boat.  74 . Though drunk with water I felt very happy as that was the first adventure in my life, and I really enjoyed it.
I always like to sit quietly in one corner of my room, recalling past events, and laughing secretly to myself. Happy memories can delight you when you are moody and can encourage you when you are in difficulties.  75 .
A．They hate their fellow men
B．Encouraging one’s minds sometimes brings more trouble
C．Loneliness and coldness offers some people bad memories of the past
D．besides, it is our past
E. Yes, too much in it can certainly cause harm
F. Suddenly I saw a jellyfish floating on the surface
G. Fortunately, my two friends, experts in boating, managed to turn it back

A boy was born to a couple after eleven years of marriage. They were a loving couple and loved the boy very much. When the boy was around two years old, one morning the husband saw a medicine bottle open. He was late for work so he asked the wife to cap the bottle and keep it in the cupboard. The mother, preoccupied in the kitchen, totally forgot the matter.
The boy saw the bottle and playfully went to the bottle and, fascinated with its color, drank it all. It happened to be a poisonous medicine meant for adults in small dosages. When the child collapsed, the mother hurried him to the hospital, where he died. The mother was stunned. She was terrified how to face her husband.
When the distraught father came to the hospital and saw the dead child, he looked at his wife and uttered just four words. The husband just said ‘I am with you, Darling’. The husband's totally unexpected reaction is proactive behavior. The child is dead. He can never be brought back to life. There is no point in finding fault with the mother. Besides, if only he have taken time to keep the bottle away, this will not have happened. No point in attaching blame. She had also lost her only child. What she needed at that moment was consolation and sympathy from the husband. That is what he gave her.
If everyone can look at life with this kind of viewpoint, there would be much fewer problems in the world. Take off all your envies, jealousies, unforgiveness, selfishness, and fears and you will find things are actually not as difficult as you think. Sometimes we spend time asking who is responsible or whom to blame, whether in a relationship, in a job or with the people we know. By this way we miss out some warmth in human relationship.
56．The uncapped medical bottle was not put back into the cupboard because         .
A．the husband was careless                            B．the husband was busy
C．the wife wasn’t informed of the matter   D．the wife ignored the matter
57．What do we know about the bottle?          .
A．It contained poison only for adults             B．It appeared like a nice drink
C．It was broken by the child                             D．It was kept in the kitchen
58．The husband’s attitude towards his wife can be described as           .
A．optimistic                B．confident                 C．considerate            D．generous
59．What did the writer intend to tell us about life?          .
A．Let go the negative side and we can enjoy life.
B．It is always useless finding who is responsible
C．Think of nothing and life will be easy
D．Life should give way to responsibility
