You can either travel or read, but either your body or your soul must be on the way. The popular
saying has inspired many people to read or go sightseeing. Here are four books that you can take on your
trip.
1. On the Road, 1957, by Jack Kerouac

Jean-Jacques Rousseau once said, "Man is born free, and everywhere he is in chains." The book

during his trip to Central Europe. The book invites you to deeply reflects on your current life and to honor
the Czech-born writer Kundera.
3.My Name Is Red, 1998, by Orhan Pamuk
The book, a masterpiece of the Nobel Prize winner for Literature Orhan Pamuk, has been translated

A mother of nine started medical school, graduated with her degree and plans to be a neurosurgeon
(神经外科医生).
Sarah Merrill, now 41, said her journey to medical school began at age 17. She then met her husband
and got married. But she decided to follow her dream of attending medical school. Certainly, it was a
challenge. She owed her success to her husband’s approval. “When I was accepted by the Medicine
School, we moved from Pennsylvania to Arizona to start my internship (实习). In fact, they volunteered
these movements. I know it was tough for all of us.” said Merrill.
Merrill and her children often have “homework parties” where they study their own courses. Merrill’s
choice has given a stimulus to her children. Merrill felt touched when knowing her daughter and son want
to become a doctor.
Merrill’s next step will come into a male-dominated field where women doctors only take up 5%. Dr.
Halyard at the Medicine School said Merrill was known as a focused student and added, “If you have the
ability to deal with nine children, the internship should be a piece of cake because no amount of stress will
make you fail.”
Merrill had considered choosing a more family-friendly major, but, again, chose to dream big and
follow her original pursuit. It’s the same advice she would give to all. “Set the goal that is what you’re
really enthusiastic about, and it helps to think small. If you know what your priorities are, focus on the
next step. Then you’ll get where you want to go.”
24.Why does Merrill speak of their movements?
A. To show the support of her family.
B. To stress her determination to be a doctor.
C. To reflect difficulties in attending college.
D. To describe the process of pursuing her dream.
25.What does the underlined word “stimulus” mean in paragraph 3?
A. Commitment. B. Inspiration. C. Entertainment. D. Confusion.
26.What does Halyard mean in paragraph 4?
A. Merrill will have more stress to handle.
B. Being Mom makes Merrill a better doctor.
C. Staying focused and sensible is key to success.
D. She is confident of Merrill’s being a neurosurgeon.
27. What does Merrill suggest at last?
A. Starting with important things.
B. Getting your priorities right.
C. Being true to your passion.
D. Having the courage to dream big.
C
My best friend travelled to stay with my family last weekend. When she arrived, she went straight to
the kitchen and, without asking, ate some dried fruit. She wasn’t being rude. I knew she would do this.
We’ve known each other for almost 20 years. She can eat anything she wants from my kitchen. Indeed, I
bought her favorite fruits and snacks at the shop that morning.
Our long weekend together was simple. I was recovering from surgery and couldn’t go to shopping
malls. We passed the time running errands (差事), but there was never a quiet moment. We’ve lived in
different cities for almost a decade. Reunions (相聚) need conversation.
Our personalities are matched and a shared history is extremely valuable. We were competitors at
high school before bonding. Then we discovered the many interests that we had in common. Our
friendship developed itself quickly. We stayed companions and supported each other through law school
and through our first jobs. What I like most about our friendship is that we don’t have to “do”, but we
simply have to “be”. We drop the act, the performance, the public version of ourselves.
There is something special about friends who know everything about you. They are rare. They have
seen your bright lights of achievements and the depths of desperation. The special friendships are those
which never fail to delight, whose continuation is worth the extra effort, despite distance and difference in
our separate lives. I had the very great joy of this reminder last weekend. I’m lucky to have found this
friend, and to see a future where her companionship remains. Being together is perfection.
28.What does the underlined sentence indicate in Para. 2?
A.They talked a lot about their lives.
B.They enjoyed running errands.
C.They had a noisy weekend.
D.They quarreled at times.
29.What does the author appreciate about their friendship?
A.They help each other achieve in their fields.
B.They’re best friends despite different hobbies.
C.They inspire each other to be their best selves.
D.They’re comfortable just being themselves.
30.What can we learn from the last paragraph?
A.Real friends are easy to make.
B.Good friendships need effort.
C.Special friendships may fail to delight.
D.Distance and difference bring friendship.
31.Why does the author write this text?
第 3 页 共 4 页
A.To express thanks to her best friend.
B.To share the friendship she treasures.
C.To describe the appearance of her best friend.
D.To explain how she offers help to her friend.
D
What is the greatest threat to mankind? Maybe different people come up with different answers.
However, there is no denying the fact that the only threat to humankind, apart from humankind itself, is,
without any doubt, the nature. Natural disasters are the result of natural environmental processes that have
a damaging effect on people. Natural disasters can come in many forms: such as geological events like
earthquakes, tsunamis or mud-rock flows, climatic events like storms, hurricanes or tornadoes and fire
events like forest fires and wildfires.
The damage done by natural disasters is mainly as a result of our inability to predict exactly when
they will happen. Although great progress has been made in designing and developing forecasting models
for some natural disaster, complete certainty is still impossible. Even to be pessimistic there is a
possibility that human beings will never achieve accurate prediction of the happening of all natural
disasters.
What's more, even though we were able to predict these disasters from nature, preventing them is
equally impossible. So we only have two ways to both prevent injuries or deaths and reduce economic
losses to the least. These two methods are to prepare before a natural disaster comes to hit, and to manage
the necessary resources and public services after a natural disaster strikes.
These two things have always been at the leading position of the projects of both national
governments and international organizations. In the United States, the Federal Emergency Management
Agency (FEMA) is responsible for the "preparedness, response and recovery planning" of both man-made
and natural disasters.
Most natural disasters cannot be prevented, and both emergency preparation and good disaster
management are the best ways to deal with them. Although natural events may appear to serve no purpose
but simply to punish and destroy, natural disasters, a perfect symbol of the great power of the nature, are
display of our planet's evolution and its state of change.
32.Which can't be regarded as a similarity between tornadoes and earthquakes?
A.They can not be prevented.
B.They are both geological events.
C.They cause damage to people.
D.They are both the result of natural environmental processes.
33.The reason why natural disasters cause so much damage is that ________.
A.it is very difficult to predict when exactly they will happen
B.our forecasting equipment is too old for many natural disasters
C.we don't do enough preparation before natural disasters strike
D.we don't have the necessary public services to use after natural disasters strike
34.It may be concluded from the passage that ________.
A.natural disasters can not be predicted at all
B.human beings are pessimistic to the future
C.being well-prepared can avoid economic losses
D.good preparation and disaster management are advisable.
35.Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?
A.a symbol of the power of nature B.the greatest threat to mankind
C.Natural disasters and mankind D.reduce losses to the least

How to Make a Difference to the World
Many people believe that they don’t have what it takes to make a difference to the world. They
believe only people like Mother Teresa, Thomas Edison, Albert Einstein and Bill Gates are able to do so.
36. The following is a guide as to how small people like us can make a difference to the world.
1.It need not be an enormous task.
37. In this case, you already have what it takes to make the world a better place. Making a
difference to the world may seem like an enormous task, but it is in fact the collective effort of everyone
to make small contributions. The size of the contribution is not what matters most. The key here is to have
the heart to do it.
2.Start now.
There is no one best time to start to make a difference to the world. You don’t need to wait till you
have the time to share some love; you don’t have to wait till you earn more money to share a piece of
bread. Little efforts count. 38.
3. 39.
As the saying goes, “Give a man a fish; you feed him for a day. Teach him how to fish, and you feed
him for a lifetime.” The good that we seek to do will make more of a difference when there is a
long-lasting effect rather than a temporary effect. 40. And when more people receive education,
they will in turn provide more value to the world.
A.For example, building a school will benefit many people for years to come.
B.Nobody can do everything, but everyone can do something.
C.Seek to make a long-lasting effect.
D.You can start making small contributions today.
E. If you can’t feed a hundred people, then feed just one.
F. The truth is, every one of us can make it in our own unique way.
G. Stop complaining and do something.

阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Just as many families do at a point, Catherine chose to add a new family member by adopting a pet.
Shortly after her daughter Kate’s birth, Catherine decided she wanted a close bond with a dog for Kate.
Thus, Catherine called the dog shelter close by to inquire about adoption. After hearing about the available
animals, she chose a Doberman Pinscher. Once they signed adoption papers, they named the dog Khan.
Catherine was hopeful this would provide valuable lessons for her baby, such as sharing, learning to
love and responsibility to care for animals. She was looking forward to having the dog join the family.
Hearing of Khan’s rough background, Catherine immediately loved the dog. She was overjoyed to
bring this special dog back to her family. Of course, she realized there were risks involved. Well, the
obvious risks from bringing a large, potentially dangerous animal to her young baby, Catherine pushed
them aside. If she had not adopted Khan, he would have been killed just a week later. So, this was his new
life and second chance, and the family was hoping for the best.
Everything began smoothly. They trained Khan during the first few days. However, everything
changed on that fourth day when the dog acted completely out of character.
The fateful day began with the usual playtime in the yard. Although baby Kate had her parents
watching from a distance, they did not notice anything out of the ordinary. Kate and the new dog had been
making a habit of playing out back like this. However, things were different this day.
So what was actually happening out there? The two were not being loud or crazy. They began running
through the backyard grass together. Again, Catherine watched the two closely. Surprisingly, things had
changed within an instant!
