“BANG!” the door caused a reverberation (回聲)．It was just standing there, with father standing on one side , and I on the other side．
We were both in great anger” Never set foot in this house again!” stormed father．With tears welling up in my eyes, I rushed out of the flat and ran along the street．
The street lights were shining, causing rather sad-feeling．I wandered aimlessly．
A young father who held a child in his arms walked past me．I felt as if I saw my childhood from another space: happy and carefree．
But now．．．I don’t know whether it is because I have grown up or because dad is getting old．We differ in our ways of thinking．He always put his opinions and codes of behavior on me．Whenever I do something wrong, he never admits it．We are just like two people coming from two different worlds．It feels like there is an iron door between us that can never be opened．
I wandered the streets, without a destination in mind．My heart was frozen on this hot summer night．As I walked on there were fewer and fewer people on the streets, until I had only the street lights to keep me company．When I finally reached the high-rise apartment block in which I lived ,I saw that the light was still on．
I thought to myself: “Is father waiting for me, or is he still angry with me?”
In fact, it was nothing．Perhaps, dad was throwing away some of his old stamps．Perhaps he thought they were useless．I never had the courage to tell him that I liked collecting stamps．I can’t stand his outrageous(蠻橫的)words: “I can’t throw you away, let alone these old papers ?”
All the lights were off except father’s．
Dad was always like this．Maybe he didn’t know how to express himself．After shouting at me, he never showed any mercy or any moments of regret．After an argument he has the habit of creeping up in my sleep and then tucking me underneath the covers．
This was how he always was．He has been a leader for so long that telling everyone else what to do has become his second nature．
The light was still on．“Am I wrong?” I whispered ,maybe．．．With the key in hand, I was as nervous as I had ever been．At last, I decided to open the door．As soon as I opened the door tears ran down my cheeks．I suddenly realized that the iron door that I had imagined between us did not exist at all．Love—it second to none．
小題1:Decide which is the best order of the following according to what happened in the passage．
a．I opened the door and entered the house．
b．Sadly I ran out into the street．
c．I reached the place where I lived and saw my house still brightly lit．
d．I thought of my father’s kindness towards me．
e．I walked about in the street without any aim．
A．b,e,d,c,aB．b,e,c,d,aC．b,e,a,c,dD．b,e,c,a,d
小題2:What made the writer think of his childhood ?
A．The sight of the street lights．
B．The sight of the empty street．
C．The sight of a father with a child in his arms．
D．The sight of light in his own house．
小題3:Why do you think the father often shouts at his son ?
A．perhaps the father is getting older and older．
B．perhaps the son has already grown up．
C．perhaps they never agree with each other．
D．perhaps the father has got used to doing that．
小題4:What conclusion can you come to after reading the passage ?
A．The father treats his son in an unfair way．
B．The father is actually kind to his son．
C．The father is neither kind nor cruel to his son．
D．The father is always finding fault with his son．

For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A, B, C and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.
Most people believe they don’t have much imagination. They are    50  .Everyone has imagination, but most of us, once we become adults, forget how to    51  it. Creativity isn’t always   52  with great works of art or ideas. People at work and in their free time   53  think of creative ways to solve problems. Maybe you have a goal to achieve, a tricky question to answer or you just want to expand your mind! Here are three techniques to help you.
Making connections This technique involves taking   54  ideas and trying to find links between them. First, think about the problem you have to solve or the job you need to do. Then find an image, word, idea or object, for example, a candle. Write down all the idea/words   55  with candles: light, fire, matches, wax, night, silence, etc. Think of as many as you can. The next stage is to relate the   56  to the job you have to do. So imagine you want to buy a friend an original   57  ; you could buy him tickets to match or take him out for the night.
NO limits! Imagine that normal limitations don’t   58  . You have as much time/space/money, etc. as you want. Think about your goal and the new   59  .If your goal is to learn to ski,   60  , you can now practise skiing every day of your life （because you have the time and the money）. Now    61   this to reality.  Maybe you can practise skiing ever day in December, or every Monday in January.
Be someone else! Look at the situation from a    62  point of view. Good businessmen use this technique in trade, and so do writes. Fiction writers often imagine they are the   63  in their books. They ask question: What does this character want? Why can’t she get it? What changes must she make to get what she wants? If your goal involves other people, put yourself in their    64  . The best fishermen think like fish!

A youth lay in a bath of tomato juice during the “Tomatina” Tomato Fight in the town of Bunol, near Valencia, eastern Spain.
Tens of thousands of people took off their shorts and threw tons of juicy tomatoes at each other in the Tomatina food fight, creating knee-deep rivers of tomato sauce (醬) on the streets of this Spanish town.
Five trucks carried 130 tons of the fruit for the hour-long fight which attracted foreign tourists. Among them are British, French, Argentineans and Japanese, as well as locals.
On the bell of noon the signal was given and for the next 60 minutes participants (參加人) hurled tomatoes at each other until a gunshot signalled the end of the festival.
The clean-up followed, with fighters washing the signs of battle away in the local river or under hundreds of temporary (臨時(shí)的) showers. While the front of buildings were watered, they seemed brighter than ever after their bath.
The Tomatina, held on the last Wednesday in August, is said to be the world’s largest tomato fight. In the past people have been hurt during the tomato fight but no one was killed or injured this year.
The origin (起源) of the festival is unknown, but everyone in Bunol seems to have a favorite story. However, most agree it started around 1940.
小題1:The passage shows that the tomato fight this year is __________.
A．frighteningB．boring
C．popularD．harmful
小題2:The underlined word “hurled” means “__________”.

A．participants can have a good rest after the fight ends
B．the festival came from a favorite story

To Whom It May Concern:
My husband and I got married in 1965 and for the first ten years of our marriage I was very happy to stay home and raise our three children. Then four years ago, our youngest child went to school and I thought I might go back to work.
My husband was very supportive and helped me to make my decision. He emphasized all of the things I can do around the house, and said he thought I could be a great success in business.
After several weeks of job-hunting I found my present job, which is working for a small public relations firm. At first, my husband was very proud of me and would tell his friends , "My clever little wife can run that company she's working for."
But as his joking remark approached reality, my husband stopped talking to me about my job．I have received several promotions and pay increases , and I am now making more money than he is. I can buy my own clothes and a new car. Because of our combined incomes, my husband and I can do many things that we had always dreamed of doing , but we don't do these things because he is very unhappy.
We fight about little things and my husband is very critical of me in front of our friends. For the first time in our marriage, I think there is a possibility that our marriage may come to an end．
I love my husband very much, and I don't want him to feel inferior, but I also love my job．I think I can be a good wife and a working woman, but I don't know how .Can you give me some advice? Will I have to choose one or the other or can I keep both my husband and my new career?

At a certain time in our lives we consider every place as the possible sites(地點(diǎn)) for a house. I have thus searched the country within a dozen miles of where I live. In imagination I have bought all the farms, one after another, and I knew their prices.
The nearest thing that I came to actual ownership was when I bought the Hollowell place. But before the owner completed the sale with me, his wife changed her mind and wished to keep it, and he offered me additional dollars to return the farm to him. However, I let him keep the additional dollars and sold him the farm for just what I gave for it.
The real attractiong of the Hollowell farm to me were its position, being about two miles from the village, half a mile from the nearest neighbor, bounded(相鄰) on one side by the river, and separated from the highway by a wide field. The poor condition fo the house and fences showed that it hadn’t been used for some time. I remembered from my earliest trip up the river that the house used to be hidden behind a forest area, and I was in a hurry to buy it before the owner finished getting out some rocks, cutting down the apples trees, and clearing away some young trees which had grown up in the fields. I wanted to buy it before he made any more of his improvements. But it turned out as I have said.
I was not really troubled by the loss. I had always had a garden, but I don’t thing I was ready for a large farm. I believe that as long as possible it is better to live free and uncommitted (無牽掛的). It makes but little difference whether you own a farm or not.
小題1:What do we know about the author?
A．He wanted to buy the oldest farm near where he lived.
B．He made a study of many farms before buying.
C．He made money by buying and selling farms.
D．He had the money to buy the best farm in the country.
小題2:Why did the author decide to buy the Hollowell place?
A．It was of good market value.
B．It was next to the highway.
C．It was in a good position.
D．It was behind a nice garden.
小題3:Why did the author want to buy the farm in a hurry?
A．He was afraid the owner might changes his mind.
B．He hoped to enlarge the forest on the farm.
C．He wanted to keep the farm as it was.
D．He was eager to become a farm owner.
小題4:The underlined words “the loss” in the last paragraph refer to ___.
A．the money the author lost in buying the farm
B．the sale of the garden in the Hollowell place
C．the removal of the trees around the house
D．the failure to possess the Hollowell place
小題5:What does the author believe as important in life?
A．To own a farmB．To satisfy his needs
C．To be free from worriesD．To live in the countryside
