It was 1st January, the first day of the year and a holiday for me. I went to the bank to get the bank work out of the way. The bank clerk nodded and I sat in front of him. He was busy filling up entries in his register.

I put my form and booklet in front of him. After waiting for a few more minutes, in which I showed all signs of being impatient, I asked him if my work was done. He shouted, “ Nothing is done, and it will take time! ”

Just then I saw his morning cup of tea, which had been lying there for the last ten minutes, untouched. The tea had turned almost cold while he was doing his work. Suddenly I felt what this man must be feeling when customers like me come always in a hurry to get their work done. We do not even feel the need to thank them for being there.

So, I told him, “ Sir, you please have your tea. I am not in a hurry. ” This man suddenly looked up at me and for the first time we had eye contact. I saw a different person there, who was as hard-pressed for time as I always am.

I saw both of us sailing in the same boat. I felt that he was also missing the small things in life like a hot cup of tea or lying in a warm bed for a few more minutes like me. He gave me a rare smile and said, “ It is an everyday affair with me; you are not in a hurry but somebody else will be. ”

He really touched my heart with his wise words. I felt that all this time I thought of him as a someone who was there for my convenience, but today I suddenly felt a strange communion with him. I vowed to be friendly with people who help me with my work and be thankful that they are there for me.

A. He was sometimes in the similar situation. B. They once sailed in the same boat.

C. They expected to sail in the same boat.  D. He’s too busy to sail in a boat, too.

44. The writer’s attitude towards the bank clerk might be that of ______ .

Some of Earth’s plants have fallen in love with metal. With roots that act practically like magnets (磁铁), these organisms — about 700 are known — flourish in metal-rich soils that make hundreds of thousands of other plant species flee or die.

Slicing open one of these trees or running the leaves of its bush cousin through a peanut press produces a blue-green “ juice ” . This “ juice ” is actually one-quarter nickel (镍), far more concentrated than the ore feeding the world’s nickel smelters (熔炉).

The plants not only collect the soil’s minerals into their bodies but seem to store them to “ ridiculous ” levels, said Alan Baker, a visiting botany professor at the University of Melbourne who has researched the relationship between plants and their soils since the 1970s. This vegetation could be the world’s most efficient, solar-powered mineral smelters. What if, as a partial replacement to traditional, energy-intensive and environmentally costly mining and smelting, the world harvested nickel plants?

Dr. Baker and an international team of colleagues have set their sights on convincing the world the idea is more than just a fun thought experiment. On a plot of land rented from a rural village on the Malaysian side of the island of Borneo, the group has proved it at small scale. Every six to 12 months, a farmer shaves off one foot of growth from these nickel-hyper-accumulating plants and either burns or squeezes the metal out. After a short purification (提纯), farmers could hold in their hands roughly 500 pounds of nickel citrate (硝酸镍), potentially worth thousands of dollars on international markets.

Now, as the team scales up to the world’s largest trial at nearly 50 acres, their target audience is industry. In a decade, the researchers hope that a greater consumer demand for base metals and rare minerals could be filled by the same kind of farming that produces the world’s coconuts and coffee.

46. What does the underlined word “ flourish ” in paragraph 1 probably mean?

A. hide themselves       B. attract the attention of others

C. die out         D. grow well

47. What could be inferred from Paragraph 2?

A. Nickel runs along those plants’ leaves.

B. The blue green “ juice ” contains a high concentration of nickel.

C. To produce nickel, those trees should be put into smelters.

D. Without peanut press, the blue-green “ juice ” can’t be produced.

48. What can we learn from Paragraphs 3 and 4?

A. Dr. Baker and his group have already started testing this plant in large quantities.

B. This vegetation contains a high content of nickel.

C. Farmers will cut down the plants and burn the metal out every six to 12 months.

D. Dr. Baker and his group have made a fortune from the vegetation.

49. What is the passage mainly about?

A. The farming for metals.

B. The use of nickel-hyper-accumulating plants.

C. The discovery of nickel-hyper-accumulating plants.

D. An introduction of metal-purification technology.

50. What is the author’s attitude towards the prospect of farming the vegetation?

A. Short-sighted.  B. Wait-and-see.  C. Optimistic.   D. Skeptical.

D

I’ve been writing for most of my life. The book Writing Without Teachers introduced me to one distinction and one practice that has helped my writing processes tremendously. The distinction is between the creative mind and the critical mind. While you need to employ both to get to a finished result, they cannot work in parallel no matter how much we might like to think so.

Trying to criticize writing on the fly is possibly the single greatest barrier to writing that most of us encounter. If you are listening to that 5th grade English teacher correct your grammar while you are trying to capture a fleeting (稍纵即逝的) thought, the thought will die. If you capture the fleeting thought and simply share it with the world in raw form, no one is likely to understand. You must learn to create first and then criticize if you want to make writing the tool for thinking that it is.

The practice that can help you past your learned bad habits of trying to edit as you write is what Elbow calls “ free writing. ” In free writing, the objective is to get words down on paper non-stop, usually for 15-20 minutes. No stopping, no going back, no criticizing. The goal is to get the words flowing. As the words begin to flow, the ideas will come from the shadows and let themselves be captured on your notepad or your screen.

Now you have raw materials that you can begin to work with using the critical mind that you’ve persuaded to sit on the side and watch quietly. Most likely, you will believe that this will take more time than you actually have and you will end up staring blankly at the pages as the deadline draws near.

Instead of staring at a blank start filling it with words no matter how bad. Halfway through your available time, stop and rework your raw writing into something closer to finished product. Move back and forth until you run out of time and the final result will most likely be far better than your current practices.

51. When the author says the creative mind and the critical mind “cannot work in parallel ” in the writing process, he means ______ .

A. one cannot use them at the same time  B. they cannot be regarded as equally important

C. they are in constant conflict with each other D. no one can be both creative and critical

52. What prevents people from writing on is ______ .

A. putting their ideas in raw form    B. ignoring grammatical soundness

C. attempting to edit as they write    D. trying to capture fleeting thoughts

53. What is the chief objective of the first stage of writing?

A. To organize one’s thoughts logically.   B. To get one’s ideas down.

C. To choose an appropriate topic.    D. To collect raw materials.

54. One common concern of writers about “ free writing ” is that ______ .

A. it overstresses the role of the creative mind B. it does not help them to think clearly

C. it may bring about too much criticism  D. it takes too much time to edit afterwards

55. In what way does the critical mind help the writer in the writing process?

A. It allows him to sit on the side and observe. B. It helps him to come up with new ideas.

C. It saves the writing time available to him.  D. It improves his writing into better shape.

I’m not an athlete, but I am a lover of the Olympics. My biggest sports moment ever didn’t require me to be the fastest, the highest, or the strongest. It just required me to be in the right place at the right time, and catch the opportunity when it came to me. It was to carry our national flag for the Olympic Torch Relay.

As a part of the celebration, flag bearers (旗手) were needed. 1 served in the army at that time and the Olympic organizers asked for volunteers to help carry some of the flags. Although it demanded that I give up part of my weekends and get up early, I thought that it was the chance of a lifetime.

There were several different groups that took part in the event as flag bearers. We soldiers were going to be out in front leading them. On the day of the event, we arrived early at the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum. Many people arrived to see the flame arrive from Greece, and the beginning of the Olympic Torch Relay. It was exciting to wait for our turn to enter the coliseum.

As a flag bearer, I was supposed to run out in front. Though the flag was fairly heavy, I picked it up and ran with it. I ran past rows of people. I ran through television cameras. It was one of the most amazing experiences of my life, being able to carry our national flag in an international event like the Olympics. I was very proud of it.

I had never been able to attend the Olympics, and I might never be important enough to carry an Olympic torch or anything like that, but I did get to carry our national flag in the torch relay, although I will no longer have the opportunity to carry the flag in the Olympics, and that would be one sports experience that would be difficult to forget.

56. What was the author when the Olympics were hosted in Los Angeles? ( no more than 6 words )

_______________________________________________________________________________________________

57. What was the author asked to do as a volunteer? ( no more than 10 words )

_______________________________________________________________________________________________

58. What’s the meaning of the underlined sentence in Paragraph 2? ( no more than 10 words )

59. How many times has the author carried the flag in the Olympics? ( no more than 2 words )

60. Do you want to be a flag bearer? Why or why not? ( no more than 20 words )

My teachers and fellow students,

In a couple of weeks, we’ll say goodbye to our mother school. How time flies! As a senior three student, I have much to share with you.

Firstly, I would like to show my appreciation to those standing by me all the way, teachers, parents and friends included. Without their help and advice, my life would be different. Secondly, I hope that all the younger fellows can make full use of time, because time and tide wait for no man.

Finally, on behalf of all the graduates present here, let me extend our sincere wishes for our mother school and respectable teachers.

Thank you!
