One morning I was woken by my mother’s angry voice. I opened my eyes and found it was seven forty , so jumped out of bed and rushed to a nearby bus stop without breakfast. Fortunately the bus started going as soon as I got on it. I was sure I could reach the school before the bell rang.
However, the bus suddenly stopped. There was something wrong with it and we had to get off and wait for another one. I felt I couldn’t wait and the school was only fifteen minutes’ walk, so I ran to the school as fast as possible. Just at this moment, it began to rain hard. 
I reached the classroom with all my clothes wet through. Mr. Smith, our physics teacher, had begun his class. I was always afraid of him. I hesitated (猶豫) for a moment, and then I opened the door.
“It’s you again, Jim,” Mr. Smith said angrily. “I’ve told you not to be late, but you...” Then he suddenly stopped when he noticed my wet clothes. He quickly took off his own jacket and asked me to put it on. “I don’t want you to catch a cold,” he said kindly. I went to my seat with Mr. Smith’s jacket on. It was a bit large for me but I felt very warm in it. I found, for the first time, Mr. Smith’s physics class so interesting and I changed my mind, there and then, about being afraid of him.
49. According to this passage, classes in Jim’s school probably began at _______.
A. 9 am             B. 8 am            C. 7 am            D. 7:30 am
50. Why did Jim not open the door at first?
A. He was afraid of facing Mr. Smith.         
B. He didn’t like to have the physics class.
C. Mr. Smith didn’t let him go into the classroom.   
D. He didn’t want to interrupt others.
51. Jim found Mr. Smith’s physics lesson interesting that day because ________.
A. he knew physics was very important         B. he wanted to go to a famous college
C. he didn’t want to fall behind the others       D. he was moved by his physics teacher
52. We can infer from the passage that _______.
A. Jim usually went to school by bike        B. it was the first time Jim had been late
C. Jim was often late for school             D. Jim’s mother also got up late that morning

Twenty cents! My mind reeled(震驚). I could afford it. I got a weekly allowance of 25 cents, plus some _45_ for odd jobs(零活). But _46_ it was my money, ice cream wasn’t a good use of it. In a fit of _47_, I said, “Well, in that case, I guess I’ll _48_.” My father just said, “Okay, Son.”
But as we headed home, I realized how wrong I was and begged him to _49_. But he just said, “That’s okay, we don’t really need one.” I felt _50_ for my selfishness and ungratefulness. He didn’t mind, or _51_ act disappointed.
I _52_ that generosity(慷慨)goes two ways and gratefulness sometimes costs more than “thank you”. On that day gratefulness would have cost 20 cents and it would have been the _53_ ice cream I’d ever had.

JAMES Brown, the legendary US singer known as the “Godfather of Soul”, died Christmas morning, 2006. he was 73.
Brown was one of the major musical influences of the last
50 years. He provided the basis for much of black music and
most of pop music with his early hits like. “Please, Please,
Please”. He essentially created funk(“瘋客”音樂)with
mid-1960s songs such as "Papa's Got a Brand New Bag".
It won him a Grammy Award as best rhythm-and-blues song,
and it was only the beginning of Mr. Brown's rhythmic
breakthroughs. His rapid-footed dancing inspired Michael Jackson and Prince. Rap stars of recent years, such as Fat Boys and Public Enemy, have all borrowed his lyrics and rhythms.
Brown's songs in the late 1960s and early 1970s, such as "Hot Pants" and "Make It Funky", mixed the sophistication(復(fù)雜) of jazz-style arrangements with raw funk. With these songs, Brown established himself as the godfather not just of soul, but of all subsequent styles of dance music: funk, disco, hip hop.
"He made soul music a world music," said Al Sharpton, who toured with Brown in the 1970s and imitates his hairstyle to this day. "What Brown was to music in terms of soul and hip hop, rap, all of that, is what Bach(巴赫, 德國作曲家) was to classical music. He put everybody on a different beat, a different style of music."
Amid the civil rights movement of the 1960s Mr. Brown used his fame and music for social messages. He released "Don't Be a Dropout" in 1966 and met with Vice President Hubert H. Humphrey to promote a stay-in-school initiative. Two years later "Say It Loud - I'm Black and I'm Proud" insisted, "We won't quit movin' until we get what we deserve."
小題1:The passage is mainly about _______.
A.black music in the US
B.James Brown's unique music styles
C.James Brown's contribution to American music
D.great musicians in the US in the last 50 years
小題2:The author intends to tell us by the last paragraph that ______.
A.James Brown was proud of being a black
B.James Brown was also active in political movements
C.the then Vice President Hubert H. Humphrey was one of Brown's fans
D.no children dropped out of school because of James Brown's social influence
小題3: Which of the following indicates that Brown's career began to take off?
A.His rapid-footed dancing.
B.His three years in prison.
C.His tour around the country with Al Sharpton.
D.His mid-1960s songs such as "Papa's Got a Brand New Bag".
小題4:James Brown has influenced all American music types EXCEPT ______.
A.classical music B.rhythm-and-blues

Something big is happening to the human race, something that could be called the Great Transformation.
The Transformation consists of all the changes that are occurring in human life due to advancing technology. For thousands of years such progress occurred slowly. Now everything is changing so fast that you may find yourself wondering where all this progress is really leading.
Nobody knows what all these changes will really mean in the long run. But this mysterious Transformation is the biggest story of all times. It is the story of the human race itself.
Some people worry about what will happen when the deposits(蘊(yùn)藏)of petroleum are gone, but already researchers are finding all kinds of new ways to get energy. Someday, solar power collected by satellites circling the earth or fission(裂變) power produced by mankind may give us all the energy we need for an expanding civilization(文明).Space exploraton promises to open up much new land for human settlement, as well as leading to the harvest of mineral resources.
Like it or not, our advancing technology has made us masters of the earth. We not only control all the other animals, but also reshape the world’s plant life and even its soil and rocks, its waters and surrounding air.
Technology gives us the power to build a great new civilizaion, if we can just agee on what we want it to be, bu today, there is little global agreement on goals and how we should achieve them.
So it remanins to be seen what will happen as a result of our technology. Pessimists(悲觀主義者) worry that we will use the technology eventually to blow ourselves up. But they have been saying that for decades, and so far we have escaped. Whether we will continue to do so remains unknown, but we can continue to hope.
68.The Great Transformation is caused by ________.
A. changes in human life    B.the development of science and technology
C. space exploration        D. unknown reasons
69.Today it is impossible for people to build a remarkable new civilization because __________.  A.nobody is optimistic about the future
B.human beings aare unabale to do so
C.people diagree with each other in many ways
D.people are worried too much
70.Advancing technology could possibly make us_______.
A.hesitate    B.decisive      C.powerless      D.mysterious

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,從每題所給的四個選項(A、B、C和D)中,選出最佳選項。
There is no clear advice on how to use your body language. What you do might be interpreted(詮釋)in several ways, depending on the surroundings and who you are talking to. You’ll probably want to use body language differently when talking to your boss compared to when you talk to a girl you’re interested in. The following are some effective ways to improve your body language.
First, to change your body language you must be aware of your body language. Notice
how you sit, how you stand , how you use your hands and legs, and what you do while talking to someone.
You might want to practice in front of a mirror. It might seem silly but no one is watching you. This will give you good feedback(反饋)on how you look to other people and also give you an opportunity to practice a bit before going out into the world.
Another tip is to close your eyes and visualize how you would stand and sit to feel confident, open and relaxed or whatever you want to communicate. See yourself move like that version of yourself. Then try it out.
You might also want to observe friends, role models, movie stars or other people you think have good body language. Observe what they do and you don’t and take bits and pieces you like from them. Try using what you can learn from them.
Some of these tips might seem like you are faking(假裝) something. But fake it till you make it a useful way to learn something new. And remember, feelings work backwards too. If you smile a bit more you will feel happier. If you sit up straight you will feel more energetic and in control. If you slow down your movements you’ll feel calmer.
56.What’s the purpose of the passage?
A.To show the importance of body language.
B.To compare spoken language with body language.
C.To give some tips on improving body language.
D.To introduce different kinds of body language.
57.We can learn from the passage that_________.
A.body language is not as important as spoken language.
B.movie stars and models always have good body language.
C.using more body language can make us more popular.
D.different body language should be used in different situations.
58.The underlined word “visualize” in Paragraph 4 means_________.
A.see in one’s mind                    B.discuss with somebody   
C.look in the mirror                    D.Practice again and again
59.What does the author mainly want to say in the last paragraph?
A.Don’t hide your true feelings.         B.It’s a good idea to imitate some people .
C.Try to stay calm all the time.         D.Go on learning more about body language.

The World's Largest Insect
This giant insect can be used as a toy.
A child ties one end of a string to a stick and the other end around the "neck" of an insect. Holding the stick, the child lets the insect go. With a loud whirring sound, the insect takes off, pulling the string in a large curve over the child's head. The child laughs as the stick jumps around. The child is African, and the toy is the African Goliath beetle, the largest insect in the world.
The Goliath is a true insect because it has six legs and a body that is divided into three parts. Like all beetles, it has two pairs of wings. The front pair are thick and stiff and protect the back pair, which are soft. It is these soft back wings that make the beetle fly forward. They also cause the loud whirring sound the beetle makes when it flies. To steer, the beetle twists and turns its legs the same way you steer a bike by turning its front wheel.
African children often use the Goliath beetle as a toy. Although it is over 15 centimeters long, it is quite harmless.
小題1:The African Goliath beetle is _______. 
A.the world's largest insect
B.a(chǎn) toy used in many parts of the world
C.the only insect found in Africa
D.the world's smallest insect
小題2:What made the whirring sound that the child heard?
A.The curved string. B.The beetle's soft wings.
C.The beetle's six legs. D.The beetle's body.
小題3: We know the Goliath beetle is a true insect because it _______. 
A.makes a whirring sound when it fliesB.has both soft and hard wings
C.has six legs and a body with three parts D.can fly
小題4:When flying, the Goliath steers by_______. 
A.turning its soft back wings
B.twisting and turning its hard front wings
C.twisting and turning its legs
D.twisting and turning its whole body
