19．I remember a day before I turned 30when a barber pulled a gray hair from my head and handed it to me．"Here you go，"she said．"This is only the beginning．"
My mother's hair was  （61）totally（total） gray by 32，but I hoped to hold on to my light brown hair until at least 50．It didn't seem possible that I could be losing my"freshness"at just 29．But as （62）the number of gray hairs increased quickly through the years，I made my peace with （63）going（go） gray．
Then，a few years ago，on my 45th birthday，a middle-aged woman （64）stopped（stop） me as I was walking down the sidewalk and asked what brand of hair coloring I used．I said that I used nothing．She laughed and said she （65）had thought（think） I could direct her to a product that would make her hair look like （66）mine（me）．
I felt（67）pleased（please） for three days．I realized that sometimes what we are bored   （68）with might be things that others want to have．So why not accept and enjoy what we have？I'm now （69）proud（pride） of every strand （縷）I've earned over the years and hope to earn more （70）beforeit's too late．After all，it isn't really gray．It is a kind of color that others admire．

分析 本文主要講述作者在30歲前頭發(fā)開始變白，但作者希望維持淺棕色的頭發(fā)到50歲．幾年前，在作者45歲生日時，一個中年婦女問她使用了什么牌子的染發(fā)劑，希望能像作者的頭發(fā)一樣．這讓作者很高興，有時我們厭煩的東西可能是別人想要的東西．我們?yōu)槭裁床唤邮芎托蕾p我們有的東西呢？

解答 61．totally 考查副詞．gray是形容詞，要用副詞修飾．
62．the 考查冠詞．the number of…意為"…的數(shù)目"，是固定搭配，a number of意為"許多的"．
63．going 考查動名詞．with是介詞，后接動詞時用動名詞形式．     
64．stopped 考查動詞時態(tài)．此處講述的是過去的事情，要用一般過去時態(tài)．
65．had thought 考查動詞時態(tài)．think發(fā)生在過去動作said之前，即"過去的過去"，用過去完成時態(tài)．
66．mine 考查代詞．此處mine相當(dāng)于my hair． 
67．pleased 考查過去分詞．過去分詞作表語，多半用來表示人物所處的心理狀態(tài)或情感變化，其主語多半是人．     
68．with 考查介詞．be bored with意為"厭煩做…"，是固定搭配．
69．proud 考查形容詞．be proud of意為"以…自豪"，是固定搭配．    
70．before 考查連詞．根據(jù)句意：趁還不太晚．用連詞before，意為"趁…"．

點評 在一篇200詞左右的語篇（短文或?qū)υ挘┲辛舫?0處空白，部分空白的后面給出單詞的基本形式，要求考生根據(jù)上下文填寫空白處所需的內(nèi)容或所提供單詞的正確形式，所填寫詞語不得多于3個單詞．要做好語法填空題，理解短文是解題的前提，扎實的詞匯、句型和語法知識是基礎(chǔ)，英語國家的背景知識是必要的補充．考生須靈活運用語法知識，如單詞詞性、單詞時態(tài)、名詞單復(fù)數(shù)、連接詞、代詞、冠詞等判斷各空白處應(yīng)填寫的內(nèi)容．答完后，還要通讀全文，核對所填單詞形式是否正確，是否符合語境．

10．It's the place where smart people make smart machines work even smarter．It's also in the heart of sunny California，a great place to start a family and raise kids．What could be better？
But something is happening to their children．Up until the age of two they develop normally．But then everything seems to go backwards．The children become lock A．It helps the homeless teenagers．into their own small world，unable to communicate at all．
They call it the"curse（詛咒）of Silicon Valley，"but the medical name for the condition is autism（自閉癥）．It used to be thought that autism was a kind of mental illness．Now doctors are sure that it is a neurological disease transmitted genetically．It seems that the people leading the communications revolution are having children who cannot communicate at all．
But even the parents have trouble communicating．Asperger's Syndrome is a mild version of autism．People who have it are highly intelligent and often brilliant with numbers or system but have no social skill．This very combination of symptoms makes Asperger's sufferers into ideal computer professionals．
The Asperger's sufferer has always been a well-known figure in popular culture．He or she was the eccentric but dedicated scholar or the strange uncle or auntie who never married．But the high numbers of such people in Silicon Valley mean that they can meet others who understand them and share their interests．And while they might not be personally attractive，they can earn truly attractive amounts of money．They can get married and have kids．Unfortunately，many of the children of two Asperger's parents seem to be developing serious autism．
There is little anyone can do．It takes hours of work just to make autistic child realize that anyone else exists．And there is no cure in sight．Some argue that no cure should be found．"It may be that autistics are essentially different from normal people，but that these differences make them invaluable for the evolution of the human race，"says Dr．Kirk Whilhelmsen of the University of California．"To eliminate the genes for autism could be disastrous．
It seems that the children of Silicon Valley are paying the price of genius．
9．What does Dr Kirk Whilhelmsen think of autism？B
A．It is disastrous to society．
B．It is not completely a bad thing．
C．It is a punishment to those working in Silicon Valley．
D．People with autism should never marry．
10．Why do people call autism"curse of Silicon Valley"？B
A．Because autistic people live in Silicon Valley．
B．Because many people working in Silicon Valley have autism children．
C．Because people with autism will be driven out of Silicon Valley．
D．Because people with autism are not personally attractive and not liked by others．
11．What can we know about Asperger's Syndrome according to the passage？A
A．Asperger's sufferers are ideal computer professionals．
B．Asperger's sufferers never get married and have children．
C．Asperger's sufferers are ashamed of themselves and locked into their own world．
D．Asperger's sufferers can be beneficial to society if they are cured．

14．One of the important things for the whole family to do is to have dinner together．About ten years ago，researchers began to report the benefits of family dinner，focusing mainly on how it affects children．Studies show that those families，who eat dinner at least 3or 4times a week together，benefit in many ways．
Eating together helps families achieve open communication and build stronger and healthier relationships．Children have better grades at school and the whole family enjoys healthier environment．For many families，eating dinner together proves to be good and an effective way to reduce the risk of youth crimes，and helps to raise healthier children．It is also a great time to share the events of the day，discuss news and ideas and just be together and enjoy each other's company（陪伴）．
During dinner time parents have better opportunity to show that they are the important ones to their children．Sitting at the same table and sharing meals is where and when parents can find out more about their children's school performance，daily activities and attitudes toward life．When parents have all this information，they can better direct their kids toward positive things in life．They also have better chance to reduce the possibility that children will get involved with alcohol，tobacco，and illegal drugs．
（Note：Answer the questions or complete the statements in NO MORE THAN 12WORDS．）
70．  benefits the whole family．Have dinner together．

8．September 21，2050----At a press conference today it was announced that the first tourist heading for Mars will be the 38-year-old US businessman Patrick Clifford．He will leave the earth in the  launching window of June 2052 and set his foot on the surface of Mars in November，together with the other 6 astronauts assigned for the mission to further explore the planet．
Patrick has now two years of training ahead of him to get ready for the trip．Not only will he spend five months in getting to Mars，but another 600 days there before he can go back home．Patrick was of course very excited，"This has been my dream since I was four，and seeing the first man on Mars 20 years ago made me realize that it was possible．"
To be able to pay the $ 1.3 billion for his ticket for the trip Patrick sold his majority stake （股份） in the company his father had built．"I know that my father would have been proud of me if he had still been alive today，he knew what this means to me"，says Patrick．There is no risk though that you will find Patrick begging in your street corner when he comes back， but it is said that he was paid twice as much for his part of the company．
So，how is he going to spend his 600 days on the red planet？"Well，since I don't have a job when I get back after selling the company，I have plenty of time to come up with a new business idea"，he says and laughs．If he brings a shovel（鐵鍬）he can start building the first hotel there，but maybe he shouldn't expect too many guests until someone can offer a cheaper ticket．
13．How long will Patrick Clifford be away before he comes back？D
A．About five months        
B．About two years           
C．About 600 days            
D．About 750 days
14．The underlined part in Paragraph 3 means thatC
A．the trip will turn Patrick into a beggar   
B．Patrick will get much money from the trip
C．we needn't worry about Patrick's economic condition
D．it's likely that Patrick will be very poor after he comes back
15．What can be inferred from the passage？A
A．Patrick is an optimistic man
B．A total of six people will go to Mars
C．Patrick's father felt excited at the news  
D．Patrick will spend all his money on the trip．

B．Can you tell a kind of stress from another one？
