A

A man observed a woman in the grocery store with a three year old girl in her basket. As they passed the cookie section, the child asked for chocolate and her mother told her “no.” The little girl immediately began to get upset, and the mother remarked quietly, “Now Tina, we just have half of the aisles (通道) left to go through; don't be upset. It won't be long.”

He passed the Mother again in the candy aisle. Of course, the little girl began to shout for candy. When she was told she couldn't have any, she began to cry. The mother said, “There, there, Tina. Only a little bit longer, and then we'll be checking out.”

The man again happened to be behind the pair at the check-out, where the little girl immediately began to cry for a gum (橡皮糖) and burst into a terrible anger upon discovering there would be no gum purchased today. The mother said, “Ellen, we'll be through this check out stand in five minutes, and then you can go home and have a nice nap.”

The man followed them out to the parking lot and stopped the woman to compliment her. “I couldn't help noticing how patient you were with little Ellen ...”

The mother broke in, “My little girl's name is Tammy ... I'm Ellen.”

I don’t realize that I’ve been at college for nearly one and half year until now. Looking back into the last year, what shall I say? It consisted of both happiness and sadness. Life always goes like this, up and down, as is so exciting. Now when I recall the past, no matter how I felt at that time, they are all treasures for me.

That was the moon festival last year, which was also the first time we went out after we entered the college. It was said that the sea in Dalian was well-known and was also a wonderful place to watch the moon. After getting all the food and drinking ready, we four girls set off for the seaside. There were many people and we picked up a less crowded beach. At first, we enjoyed ourselves by drinking and eating. When the moon turned brighter, we played with the seawater. As a result, we were all drenched with water. Bathing in the moonlight, we ran and laughed. We seemed to land on another world, where was full of fresh air, laughter and love. The laughter is still echoing (回响) on my mind so far.

Life doesn’t stay the same, occasionally having a particular taste. That is sadness. What impressed me deeply is a failure in a singing competition. It was the first time I had given a performance on such a large stage in front of so many people. I was so nervous that the whole song was performed out of tune. As you could imagine, I was greeted with boos from the audience. I still remembered how dismal I felt that moment and I sat alone crying at the seaside. After that, I talked to mother about it. She told me that it was not a failure; at least, I was brave enough to show myself publicly.

Everything has passed. I’ve stored them at the bottom of my heart. I am in the second grade already. Yet much needs me to challenge. On the way, there’s both happiness and distress. However, I will go ahead just all the same.

34. The underlined word “drenched” in the second paragraph has a similar meaning with _______.

A. dried          B. wet          C. frozen         D. washed away

35. Life, according to the author, is _______.

  A. full of happiness                 

B. filled with sadness

   C. made up of laughter and tears       

D. not worth living

36. Which of the following shows the author’s attitude towards future?

   A. A friend in need is a friend indeed.

   B. Do wrong once and you’ll never hear the end of it.

   C. Where there is a will, there is a way.

   D. Time and tide wait for no man.

C

Ask any new college graduate about his immediate goals, and it is likely that he will tell you he wants a job. But it turns out that today’s students are not going to be satisfied with any job. According to the latest survey, making a difference through their work is essential (必要的) to young people’s happiness.

The survey found that 72 percent of graduating college seniors believe being able to have a positive social influence through their work is essential to their happiness. Making a difference is so important to them that 45 percent say they would take a 15-percent pay cut to work at an organization that has a social or environmental influence, and 58 percent say they would take a pay cut to work for an organization whose values are the same as their own.

Besides this, the survey found that female students are far more likely to put social influence in first place than their male classmates, echoing the results of a former study showing that female maths and science majors are more likely to say they go into those fields to make a difference.

One reason for the emphasis (强调) on improving the world probably has to do with the culture of colleges, which encourages students to connect their studies back to real-world problems. Students are used to discussing important social issues (问题) with their friends and professors, and doing something about them in class or through volunteer activities. Once students develop those habits, they don’t shut them off when graduation rolls around.

37. What does the underlined word “echoing” in paragraph 3 probably mean?

A. Learning    B. Repeating     C. Believing   D. Creating.

38. What is one of the reasons for the emphasis on students wanting to improve the world?

A. The habits students develop in society.

B. The appearance of important social issues.

C. The encouragement of the culture of colleges.

D  The effect parents’ education has on their children.

39. What can you learn from the passage?

A. Young people will surely gain happiness if they can make a difference in their work.

B. Less than half of the college seniors will take a pay cut to work with the same values.

C. Most college graduates believe it important to have a positive social influence in work.

D. Female graduates are all putting more social influence in first place than male graduates.

40. Which could be the best title for the passage?

A. Female Students Are Concerned about Society

B. Young People’s Happiness Doesn’t Depend on Money

C. Graduates Become More Interested in Challenging Jobs

D. Many Graduates Would Take a Pay Cut to Make a Difference

第二节 七选五 （共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分）

At the end of a long day, it’s all too easy to take a hot shower, brush your teeth, and then jump into bed. __41__ As it turns out, going to bed with wet hair isn’t as harmless as you probably thought.

The first negative result of sleeping with wet hair is purely cosmetic (美容). __42__ If you try to style your hair in the morning after sleeping on it wet, you’re probably going to have trouble styling the resulting curliness (卷曲), funny waves, and flat sides.

When you wake up, you’re probably going to have to re­wet it again to properly dry it and regain control. __43__

Sleeping with wet hair does not immediately damage your hair, but it can certainly lead to hair breakage, because hair is weakest when wet. __44__

First, you can swap your cotton pillowcases for silk ones. Silk has a much smoother surface, so you won’t experience as much unfortunate breakage.

Next, you can make sure to sleep with your hair down, instead of up in a tight ponytail. In addition, you should replace your tight bands with a soft one that isn’t going to roughly pull at night.

__45__ Dry oils and texturizing mousses (摩丝) are some of the best ways to ensure you don’t wake up looking like a lion while protecting your precious hair from damage.

Now that you know how bad sleeping with wet hair is，make sure you’re not making these hairstyle mistakes.

1. Finally, never skip out on applying product.
2. Here are some tips that can help dry any hair faster.
3. This unnecessarily adds time to your morning routine.
4. If you haven’t noticed, the ends of your hair tend to dry first.
5. You can’t predict how your wet hair is going to look in the morning.
6. But have you ever thought about the risks of sleeping with wet hair?
7. If you must sleep with wet hair, there are a few ways to minimize the damage.

第二节  概要写作（满分25分）

阅读下面短文，根据其内容写一篇60词左右的内容概要．

That cold January night, I was growing sick of my life in San Francisco. There I was, walking home at one in the morning after a tiring practice at the theatre. With opening night only a week away, I was still learning my lines. I was having trouble dealing with my part-time job at the bank and my acting at night at the same time. As I walked, I thought seriously about giving up both acting and San Francisco. City life had become too much for me.

As I walked down empty streets under tall buildings, I felt very small and cold. I began running, both to keep warm and to keep away from any possible robbers. Very few people were still out except a few sad-looking homeless people under blankets.

About a block from my apartment, I heard a sound behind me. I turned quickly, half expecting to see someone with a knife or a gun. The street was empty. All I saw was a shining streetlight. Still, the noise had made me nervous, so I started to run faster. Not until I reached my apartment building and unlocked the door did I realize what the noise had been. It had been my wallet falling to the sidewalk.

Suddenly I wasn't cold or tired anymore. I ran out of the door and back to where I'd heard the noise. Although I searched the sidewalk anxiously for fifteen minutes, my wallet was nowhere to be found.

Just as I was about to give up the search, I heard the garbage truck pull up to the sidewalk next to me. When a voice called from the inside, “Alisa Camacho?” I thought I was dreaming. How could this man know my name？The door opened, and out jumped a small red-haired man with an amused look in his eye. “Is this what you're looking for?” he asked, holding up a small square shape.

It was nearly 3 A.M. by the time I got into bed. I wouldn’t get much sleep that night, but I had gotten my wallet back. I also had gotten back some enjoyment of city life. I realized that the city couldn’t be a bad place as long as people were willing to help each other.
