Seniors Card is a partnership between the Queensland Government and participating businesses to provide discounts and Queensland Government concessions(price reductions)on a range of products and services to Queenslanders over 60．The project is FREE to join，and therefore you are not required to disclose your income．Your Seniors Card or Seniors Business Discount Card is convenient to use．Simply present your card at participating businesses to
obtain discounts．
To receive a Seniors Card you must be a permanent resident of Queensland and be aged 60 or over A Seniors Card is intended for all Queensland residents aged 60 and oven The Seniors Card gives access to government concessions as well as discounts at participating businesses in Queensland，some interstate discount and access to the FREE Senior Shopper service．
To receive a Seniors Card you must be a Queensland resident．Applicants for a Queensland Seniors Card must have their principal place of residence in Queensland for at least six months of the year．Additionally this address must be registered with at least one of the following government agencies：
If you meet these criteria and your principal place of residence is in Queensland，you can apply for a card．However, if you live primarily in another Australian state，you will need to apply for a Seniors Card from the office closest to your home．
56．If you have a Seniors Card, you can
A．participate in businesses B．provide discounts
C．get free services everywhere D．outman some discounts or price reductions
57．To get a Seniors Card, you should ．
A．have a registered address

B
Kidsin a Sudanese refugee(難民)camp stir up a cloud of dust as they kick around a football．NBA superstar Tracy McCray watches from a distance before offering to buy the kids a grass pitch for$1．000．
Perhaps he sees a Ronaldinho rising up out of the African soil．Or maybe he just wants to do something―anything―to give these children some hope．But he is told，politely, that grass is not what the kids need．
This scene appears in 3 Point，a new documentary, which shows the Houston Rockets star coming face―to－face with the reality that life is more than sport．
McGrady,29，writes on his website that he aveled to Africa because he was tired of only reading about it in news．“Who were the faces behind the statistics?”He said．“I needed to see it for myself．
And he did．He stepped out of his large house and flew to a place torn to bits by war and famine．He slept in a tent．He kept away from minefields．He talked with people who have been suffering．And he swallowed his pride．
But no one
should blame McGrady for wanting to buy the kids a pitch of grass．Spon gave him a chance，so perhaps he
thought it would do the same for the refugees．
McGrady was eyed by NBA managers as a teenager and he didn’t bother going to college．Instead，he leaped right into the NBA．Since that move，basketball has given him a handsome living，but one very far removed from the lives of ordinary people As McGrady would learn in Africa，most people see sports as just a break from life’s difficulties．They don’t mistake it for 1ife itself．
Only McGrady knows how this
Africa trip changed him，but I’d bet that，at the very least，it has given him a new
sense for what is truly meaningful．
McGrady doesn’t own an NBA championship ring．He hasn’t risen to the heights of Kobe Bryant or Michael Jordan．But，perhaps，now he knows he doesn’t have to in order to truly make a difference in the world
59．Which of the following is true according to the passage?
A．While in Africa，McGrady behaved considerately．
B．The trip to Africa has changed McGrady’s fife totally．
C．McGrady should be blamed for wanting to buy kids grass．
D．McGrady suffered as much as the African kids in his childhood．
60．What does the underlined word“eyed”'in Paragraph 7 probably mean?
A．Mtnessed． B．Selected． C．Examined．D Researched．
61．After becoming an NBAplayer,McGrady
A．1eads a different life from ordinary people
B．1ives far away from other people
C．was once removed from NBA
D．refused to go to college
62．In this passage，the writer mainly tells us
A．McGrady took a trip to
B．African peoplelead a poor life today
C．African people don’t take sport for life
D．McGrady offered his help to African children
C
A machine which makes water out of
air could become the greatest household
invention since the microwave．
Using the same technology as a
dehumiditier(除濕器)，the Water Mill is
able to create a ready supply of drinking
water by getting it from a limitless source－
the air．
The company behind the machine says
not only does it offer all altemative to
bottled water in developed countries，but it is a solution for the millions who face a dally water
shortage．
The machine works by drawing in damp air through a filter and over a cooling element which changes it into water droplets．It call produce up to 12 liters a day．The Water Mill will also produce more water when storms pass over, as the humidity(濕度)in the air increases．In keeping with it’s ecodevelopment，the machine uses the same amount of electricity as three fight bulbs．
Inventor Jonathan Ritchey said：“The demand for water is off the chart．People are looking for freedom from water distribution systems that are shaky and unreliable”．
The machine，which is about 3 feet wide，is likely to cost￡800 when it goes on sale here in the spring．Its maker, Canadian firm Element Four, estimates(估計)that a liter of water will cost around 20 pence to produce．
Environmentalists claim half the world’s population will face water shortage because of climate change by 2080．One in five humans is said to lack access to safe drinking water．
The water Millis not effective in areas with below about 30 percent relative humidity, but with average relative humidity in England of more than 70 percent that won’t be much of an issue here． ，
63．According to the author, the biggest advantage of the machine is its ．
A. little power use B．proper size C．unlimited source D．high production
64．We can conclude from the passage that the machine ．
A．Carl bemused everywhere
C．has not been on sale
B．will replace the water distribution system
D．will solve the problem of water shortage
65．What is necessary for the machine to work?
A?Enough air． B．Enough humidity． C．Enough water．D．Enough containers．
66．What would be the best title for this passage?
A．Machine to Make Water out ofAir B．Microwave for Household Use
C．Filter to Draw in Damp Air D．Modem Dehumidifier on
D
Just as the stock(股票)market rises and falls in response to what people are wilting to put their money behind，we have inside ourselves an inner economy that rises and falls in response to our beliefs about what is possible．Sometimes the degree to which we are willing to challenge our belief systems determines the success of our inner economy For example，imagine that your family of origin had a belief that musical talent was not something they possessed．As a member
of that group，you would likely hold that sable belief about yourself．As a result，even if you had a great desire to create music，you might be hesitant to really get behind yourself, fearing that your investment(投資)would not pay off．Even if you had the courage to follow your passion．your inner belief that you are not born talented would probably be a major obstacle to investing your energy in your dream．
On the other hand．If you found away to release that negative belief, agreat flood of energy would pour forth，greatly increasing the likelihood of your success．How much energy we are wilting to invest in the various ideas，dreams，and visions we carry within is like the mollev people are，or are not，willing to invest in the various products available for wade on the stock market. And in both cases，belief plays a key role in determining how willing we are to get behind something．One way to open up the possibility for greater success in our inner economies is to understand that belief is not the reliable guide we sometimes think．There are other more reliable things of success that we can put our faith in，such as passion，feeling，and sense．Some of the most successful investors in the stock market are the ones that go against the grain．trusting their sense over the common opinion held by common people about what will work．
In the same way, we can learn to trust our heart’s desires and nor sense to guide us．questioning any beliefs that stand in the way of our ability to fully invest in ourselves．As we take out energy from limiting ideas about what is possible，we free up the resources that have the power to make our inner economy prosper．
67．We can safely conclude from the first paragraph that
A．our belief is not reliable
B。belief is not so important in our success
C．belief’s an obstacle to our Success
D．our belief determines our Success in some way
68，According to the passage，if a family of origin has passion for literature，the members of the family will probably
A．write poems B．hate statures
C．enter the field of literature D．teach literature
69．We Call put our faith in the following things of success except ．
A．passion B．feeding C．sense D．stock market
70．The purpose of the author is ．
A．to teaches ales son
B．to give us some useful suggestions
C．to encourage us to invest in the stock market
D．to tell us confine people have negative beliefs
E
Someday a stranger will read your e-mail without your permission or scan the websites you’ve visited．Or perhaps someone will casually glance through your credit card purchases or cell phone bills to find out your shopping preferences or calling habits．
In fact，it’s likely some of these things have already happened to you．Who would watch you without your permission? It might be a girlfriend，a marketing company, a boss，a policeman or a criminal．Whoever it is，they will see you in a way you never intended to be seen――the 21st century equal to being caught naked(裸露的)．
Psychologists tell us boundaries are healthy, though it’s important to reveal(透露)yourself to friends，family and lovers in stages，at appropriate times．Actually few boundaries remain．The digital breadcrumbs(面包屑)you leave everywhere make it easy for strangers to reconstruct who you are，where you are and what you like．In some cases，a simple Google search can reveal what you think．Like it or not，increasingly we live in a world where you simply cannot keep a secret
The key question is：Does that matter? For many Americans．the answer apparently is”no”．
When opinion polls ask Americans about privacy, most say they are concerned about losing it. A survey found a majority of people are pessimistic about privacy, with 60 percent of
respondents saying they feel their privacy is” slipping away, and that bothers me．
But people say one thing and do another．Only a small part of Americans change any behaviors in an effort to preserve their privacy．Few people turn down a discount at tollbooths(收費亭)to avoid using the EZ―Pass system that contract(跟蹤)automobile movements．And few tom down supermarket loyalty cards．Privacy economist Alessandro Acquits has run a series of tests that reveal people will submit personal information like Social Security numbers just to get their hands on a pitiful 50-cents-off coupon(優(yōu)惠券)．
But privacy does matter―at least sometimes．It’s like health；when you have it，you don’t notice it．Only when it’s gone do you wish you’d done more to protect it．
71．FromParagraph2，we can infer
A．Criminals are easily caught on the spot with advanced technology
B．People tend to be more frank with each other in the information age
C．In the 21st century people try every means to look into others’ secrets
D．People’s personal information is easily accessed without their knowledge
72．What would psychologists advise on the relationships between friends?
A．There should be a distance even between friends．
B．There should be fewer quarrels between friends
C．Friends should always be faithful to each other．
D．Friends should open their hearts to each other．
73．Why does the author say“we live in a world where you simply cannot keep a secret”?
A．The rear always people Hoare curious about other safaris．
B．Many search engines profit by revealing people’s identities．
C．People leave traces around when using modem technology．
D．Modem society has finally developed into an open society．
74．What do most Americans do with regard to privacy protection?
A．They change behaviors that might disclose their identity．
B．They talk a lot but hardly do anything about it．
C．They rely more and more on electronic equipment．
D．They use various loyalty cards for business deals．
75．According to the passage，privacy is like health in that
A．its importance is rarely understood
B．it is something that Can easily be lost
C．people will make every effort to keep it
D．people don’t treasure it until they lose it

三、one possible version
Dear LinTao，
I’ve Just got your letter and I know learning a foreign language can be difficult for some people，but there arc many things you can do to overcome these difficulties
To begin with，obtain as large a vocabulary as possible It is a good habit to do some reading every day and spare He effuse to remember some sentences with new words There is no denying that practice makes perfect；therefore，doing enough exercises can definitely．improve your listening and writing，In this way,I suppose，you are sure to improve your English．
As for cxanl anxiety, it’s unnecessary for you to work too late before the exam．On the contrary，you’d better go to bed earlier than usual．Otherwise，you will feel tired the next day．It is also suggested that ajug of milk before going to bed may help you get a sound sleep．
In addition，you can consult your teachers if you need more help．
I do hope my advice’s helpful to you．
Sincerely yours，
Li Ming
