Consider a guided adventure that combines cross-country skiing and dog mushing（狗拉雪橇）.St. Moritz, SwitzerlandNight skiing in this Swiss town is some of the best in the world： full moon，inky quiet，and a clear sky full of stars. If you need energy for skiing, you can always refuel with pizza from the wood-fired oven at Murtel middle station.

Far too many.This is Life, all right, but we do treat it like a rehearsal (排演) and, unhappily, we do miss so many of its best moments.We take jobs to stay alive and provide homes for our families, always making ourselves believe that this style of life is merely a temporary state of affairs along the road to what we really want to do. Then, at 60 or 65, we are suddenly presented with a clock and several grandchildren and we look back and realize that all those years waiting for Real Life to come along were in fact real life.In America they have a saying much laughed at by the English：“Have a nice day!” They speak slowly and seriously in their shops, hotels and sandwich bars. I think it is a wonderful phrase, reminding us, in effect, to enjoy the moment: to value this very day.How often do we say to ourselves, "I'll take up horse-riding (or golf, or sailing) as soon as I get a higher position," only to do none of those things when I do get the higher position.When I first became a reporter, I knew a man who gave up a very well paid respectable job at the Daily Telegraph to go and edit a small weekly newspaper. At the time I was astonished by what appeared to me to be his completely abnormal (反常的) mental state. How could anyone turn his back on Fleet Street in central London for a small local area？I wanted to know.Now I am a little older and possibly wiser, I see the sense in it. In Fleet Street the man was under continual pressure. He lived in an unattractive London suburb and he spent much of his life sitting on Southern Region trains.24．The first paragraph of the passage tells us that____________.A．we always try to find some time to write a bookB．we always make plans but seldom fulfill themC．we always enjoy many of life's best momentsD．we always do what we really want to do25．The underlined phrase "turn his back on" (paragraph 6) most probably means__________.A．leave for B．return to C．rely on D． give up26．The man (paragraph 6) left his first job partly because he was____________.A．in an abnormal state B．under too much pressureC．not well paid D．not respected27．What is the best title for the passage?A．Provide Homes For Our Family B．Take Up Horse-ridingC．Value This Very Day D．Stay AliveCI am a mother of three children and have recently completed my college degree. The last class I had to take was social study. The last class was asked to go out and smile at three people and document their reactions.Soon after we were given the project, my husband, my youngest son, and I went out to McDonald’s one cold March morning. It was just our way of sharing special playtime with our son.We were standing in line, waiting to be served, when all of a sudden everyone around us began to back way. I turned around and found there standing behind me were two poor homeless men with a horrible “dirty body” smell. The short gentleman, close to me, was “smiling”. His beautiful sky-blue eyes were full of light as he searched for acceptance. The second man played with his hands uneasily as he stood behind his friend. I realized the second man was mentally challenged and the blue-eyed gentleman was his salvation(救赎). The short man just asked for a coffee because that was all they could afford.I smiled and asked the young lady behind the counter to give me two more breakfast meals on a separate tray(餐盘).I then walked around the corner to the men’s table. I put the tray on the table and laid my hand on the blue-eyed gentleman’s cold hand. He looked up at me with tears in his eyes and said “Thank you”.I started to cry as I walked away to join my husband and son. When I sat down, my husband smiled at me and said, “That’s why God gave you to me, Honey. To give me hope.”On the last evening of class, I turned in “my project” and the instructor read it. Then she looked up at me and said, “Can I share this?” I slowly nodded as she got the attention of the class. She began to read and we all knew that we need to heal people and to be healed.I graduated with one of the biggest lessons I would ever learn: UNCONDITIONAL ACCEPTANCE. “LOVE PEOPLE AND USE THINGS--NOT LOVE THINGS AND USE PEOPLE.”28．Why did the people around the author back away?A．Because the second man stood playing with his hands.B．Because the two homeless men were also waiting in line, with a bad smell.C．Because the short gentleman was smiling to everyone around.D．Because both men were poorly dressed and mentally ill.29．After the author handed the meals to the homeless men, she _________.A．regretted and cried B．turned in her projectC．went back to her husband and son D．talked with them for a while30．What kind of woman do you think the author is?A．Caring.

Historically, daydreaming students who go off on their own thoughts, rather than focusing on the teachers, the blackboard, or their class work, are often encouraged to stop allowing their attention to wander and to bring themselves back into the present moment. They’re described as uninterested in school work and their future. Traditionally, daydreaming is seen as a practice that results in bad consequences.But recent studies are beginning to renounce those common beliefs by pointing out the potential benefits that daydreaming may provide. PsychCentral reports that Mary Smith, a psychological scientist and researcher, recently examined scientific writings and studies to gain a better understanding of the role of a reflective brain. These studies have shown that the brain has a network that is active when a person is daydreaming and that brain network can help memory and learning.Though paying attention in school is important, these results suggest that there should be time for students to daydream, too. Giving them the chance to reflect and daydream can help improve learning and development. Research also indicates that when students are permitted to daydream, they experience less anxiety and become more motivated. On the other hand, if students are warned against daydreaming, their knowledge of themselves and the world around them may suffer.As a result, educators are encouraged to promote a balance between outward and inward attention. A little bit of daydreaming to break up the hard focus on school activities can be beneficial, and it may help students become better, active learners.As for students, the lesson here is not to be afraid of doing some daydreaming. Sure, you want to pay attention to the vital information conveyed to you during your classes, but don’t get discouraged if your mind wanders. A little bit of daydreaming is healthy.32．What do people usually think of daydreaming students?A．They live in the future instead of in the moment.B．They pay too much attention to their own thoughts.C．They care about neither their studies nor their future.D．They go off on their own thoughts to avoid bad results.33．What does the underlined word “renounce” in Paragraph 2 most probably mean?A． Encourage. B．Disapprove. C．Promote. D．Inspire.34．What can we infer from the text?A．The more we daydream, the better.B．Students should stay fully focused in class.C．Daydreaming reduces students’ motivation.D．We shouldn’t always say no to mind-wandering.35．What is the best title for the text?A．Causes of DaydreamingB．Benefits of DaydreamingC．Ways to Reduce DaydreamingD．Attitudes towards Daydreaming二、七选五 Nowadays, travelling has been a trend. Many people often dream of a perfect holiday with white sands, blue beaches and so on. 36． Here are some tips to make your holiday a enjoyable and memorable one.• Set a budget. Before making a plan for the holiday, the most important thing is to plan how money will be spent.37．• Plan ahead.38． Do you want to experience the local culture or just have fun on those sandy beaches? You can plan your trip according to your needs and likes.• 39． You had better look for information before visiting an unknown holiday place. Buy a good guidebook and read up on the culture, history, local attractions of the place. You can also surf the internet for more information. The more you know, the better you can enjoy the place and its traditions.• Pack light and right. Pack only the important things. Avoid carrying unnecessary things around.40． Carry clothes that are suitable and right for the season. Try to put everything you need in a single carry-on bag.• Have realistic expectations. Unreasonable expectations can lead to a lot of stress. So enjoy each moment, whether good or bad. If you bear these suggestions in mind, planning a perfect holiday isn’t just a dream.A．Read up before you go.B．A heavy luggage may sometimes influence your holiday spirit.C．Buy as many books as possible for your holiday.D．But sometimes planning a trip can be difficult.E. It helps you to plan and enjoy the trip within your limits of money.F. The first thing you need to do is to be sure of what you need from this trip.G. It’s vital for you to make a list of things you need to buy during your coming holiday.第三部分：完形填空 (每小题1.5分，满分30分)阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 Herman Travis, 55, lives in Holly Courts, a low-income neighborhood in San Francisco.
