Even after many years, she still has not forgotten the last day her whole class got together to say goodbye to their dearest schooldays.

Time has changed each fate beyond any 39  .The jolly "dwarf"(快樂的矮子) of the class has now turned into a    40   businessman. The shy, skinny "bookworm" is now a talented Ph. D. That naughty girl has   41  the well-known athlete and the class beauty a movie star. But she, a   42   addict, was driven by an inner force to put her pen aside and becomes a  43  instead.
Now, she is a teacher, yet she has to   44  learning numerous difficult lessons of life. The more she   45 , the better she understands the value of her teacher's  46  lesson. She has given her students the whole-hearted   47  and tenderness that she once received from her teacher who passed  48  years ago.
Now and then, she catches   49  of a warm look in the eyes of her students, which encourages her to   50  . She hopes to find herself again in her students: always listening carefully and appreciating each   51  . To her, that will be the noblest award she could  52  receive in her teaching years.
She tells herself to try her best to understand and take life at its deepest.   53  she hasn't enough teaching experience she will give her students the   54  that are not written in the lesson plans, as her teacher used to do. Her teacher's   55    "The giving of love is an education in itself" will be always in her mind.

科目:高中英語 來源:2007年高考浙江卷英語試題 題型:閱讀理解

I began working in journalism(新聞工作) when I was eight.It was my mother’s idea.She wanted me to“make something”of myself,and decided I had better start young if I was to have any chance of keeping up with the competition.
With my load of magazines I headed toward Belleville Avenue.The crowds were there.There were two gas stations on the corner of Belleville and Union.For several hours I made myself highly visible,making sure everyone could see me and the heavy black letters on the bag that said THE SATURDAY EVENING POST.When it was suppertime,I walked back home.
“How many did you sell,my boy?”my mother asked.
“None.”
“Where did you go?”
“The corner of Belleville and Union Avenues.”
“What did you do?”
“Stood on the corner waiting for somebody to buy a Saturday Evening Post.”
“You just stood there?”
“Didn’t sell a single one.”
“My God,Russell!”
Uncle Allen put in,“Well,I’ve decided to take the Post.”I handed him a copy and he paid me a nickel(五分鎳幣).It was the first nickel I earned.
Afterwards my mother taught me how to be a salesman.I would have to ring doorbells,address adults with self-confidence(自信),and persuade them by saying that no one,no matter how poor,could afford to be without the Saturday Evening Post in the home.
One day,I told my mother I’d changed my mind.I didn’t want to make a success in the magazine business.
“If you think you can change your mind like this,”she replied,“you’ll become a good-for-nothing.”She insisted that,as soon as school was over,I should start ringing doorbells,selling magazines.Whenever I said no,she would scold me.
My mother and I had fought this battle almost as long as I could remember.My mother,dissatisfied with my father’s plain workman’s life,determined that I would not grow up like him and his people.But never did she expect that,forty years later,such a successful journalist as me would go back to her husband’s people for true life and love.
【小題1】Why did the boy start his job young?

A.He wanted to be famous in the future.

【小題3】What did the mother do when the boy wanted to give up?

During the twentieth century, cars, electric lights, space travel and amazing advances in medicine changed people’s lives. So what might this new century bring? There are hundreds of predictions flying around — let’s have a light-hearted look at some of them.
In a recent UK survey, teenagers were asked to make predictions about the year 2020. One of the most common predictions was that school uniforms won’t be around. They also predicted that both girls and boys will wear make-up more often, and more than 75% of men will wear skirts regularly. My dad is 65 next Saturday — I think I’ll buy him a skirt as a birthday present and tell him he’ll soon be in fashion!
Other predictions involve changing roles of men and women. By 2017, some people say that single men of working age will form more than 10% of all families. It is also predicted that washing powder advertisements will include more men because more of them will do housework. I’ll tell that to my husband when he gets home and see how keen he is to wash the dishes!
Many predictions are about crime and safety problems. Some people think that crime will improve and the world will become a more peaceful place. Others believe that crime is going to worsen and that people will stay at home becoming completely dependent on the Internet for shopping and work. It is also predicted that you will need an electronic card to get into parks as parents demand safe play areas for their children. This is old news for me --- our local government is going to introduce one this summer.
Technology is predicted to play an even more important role in our lives in the future. Some parents might have cameras at home so they can keep an eye on their children while they are out. Quick, kids, turn off the TV and do your homework!
Here’s another prediction. Researchers have concluded that cultural activity may add years to your life. The cinema, theatre and concerts may give us a longer life because they encourage strong feelings. Well, we’re watching Bridget Jones’ Diary this Friday night. Will that help us live longer?
Let’s finish up with my favourite prediction. In the future, elderly people are going to make up a larger proportion of the world’s population than ever before. In Britain, an estimated 100,000 people now in their thirties may live to be 100. And that includes me! I’ll have a big, big party, I promise!
【小題1】 The writer’s father ________ .

A.has just turned sixty-five
B.wears skirts
C.is very fashionable
D.is about to turn sixty-five
【小題2】Why might more men do housework in the future?
A.Washing powder advertisements suggest it.
B.Men won’t want to work in offices any more.
C.Traditional roles of men and women will change.
D.Women will refuse to wash the dishes.
【小題3】According to the passage, people might ________ , if crime worsens.
A.need electronic cards to get into their homes
B.stay at home and depend on the Internet
C.help to make the world a more peaceful place
D.work harder and make more money
【小題4】Which of the following is NOT true?
A.It’s likely that the writer is to live to be 100.
B.The writer promises that she is going to hold a big, big party soon.
C.Without an electronic card, you can’t get into a park freely in the future.
D.The writer holds a positive attitude towards the changes in the new century.
【小題5】From the passage, we may infer that the writer is probably ____ .
A.a(chǎn) professional news reporter.
B.a(chǎn) young and attractive sales girl.
C.a(chǎn) middle-aged British housewife.
D.a(chǎn) responsible government official.

第三部分:閱讀理解(共20小題;每小題2分, 滿分40分)
閱讀下列短文,從每篇短文后所給各題的四個選項(A、B、C和D)中,選出最佳選項,并在答題卡上將該項涂黑。
A lot of us lose life's tough battles by starting a frontal attack--when a touch of humor might well enable us to win. Consider the case of a young friend of mine, who was on his trapped way to work shortly after receiving an ultimatum(最后通牒) about the job. Although there was a good reason for Sam's being late--serious illness at home--he decided that this by-now-familiar excuse wouldn't work any longer. His supervisor was probably already pacing up and down preparing a dismissal speech.
Yes, the boss was, Sam entered the office at 9:35. The place was as quiet as a locker room; everyone was hard at work. Sam's supervisor came up to him. Suddenly, Sam forced a grin and stretched out his hand. "How do you do!" he said. "I'm Sam Maynard. I'm applying for a job, which, I understand, became available just 35 minutes ago. Does the early bird get the worm?"
The room exploded in laughter, except that the supervisor had to clamp off a smile and walked back to his office. Sam Maynard had saved his job--with the only tool that could win, a laugh.
Humor is a most effective, yet frequently neglected, means of handling the difficult situations in our lives. It can be used for patching up differences, apologizing, saying "no", criticizing, getting the other fellow to do what you want without his losing face. For some jobs, it's the only tool that can succeed. It is a way to discuss subjects so sensitive that serious dialog may start a quarrel. For example, many believe that comedians on television are doing more today for racial and religious tolerance than people in any other forum.
51. Why was Sam late for his job?
A. Because he was seriously ill at home.           B. Because he received an ultimatum.
C. Because he was busy applying for a new job.  D. Because he was caught in a traffic jam.
52. What is the main idea of this passage?
A. Sam Maynard saved his job with humor     B. Humor is important in our lives
C. Early bird can get the worm               D. Humor can solve racial discriminations
53. The phrase "clamp off" in Paragraph 3 means       .
A. try to hold back    B. pretend to set      C. send off         D. give out
54. Which of the following statements can we infer from the passage?
A. Many lose life's battles for they are always late.
B. Sam was supposed to come to his office at 8:30.
C. It wasn't the first time that Sam came late for his work.
D. Humor is the most effective way of solving problems.
