Six years ago, something unforgettable happened. My wife, Liz and I celebrated our 50th wedding anniversary that year. It was a lovely event hosted by our sons for us. Many wonderful friends from the past surprised us with presents and congratulations. Our gift to each other was a driving trip out west. We drove from Ontario into Alberta, then southward into Glacier National Park in Montana and continued to Yellowstone National Park.
It was a cold spring day and the Beartooth Highway had opened for the season just days before. Along side the road there was still a great amount of snow remaining. The scenery was so impressive that we made numerous stops to record memories with my camera. At almost the highest point of the highway, I stopped at a lookout to catch the amazing views with my wife in the center of my camera lens (镜头).
There were not many vehicles on the road. Occasionally cars with energetie young tourists passed by. And then we heard a motoreyele in the distance. The driver of the motorcycle in rags (衣衫褴褛) parked behind our car. As he approached us his only words were, “Give me your camera and get over there with your wife.” I must admit I felt nervous that we might be robbed where we just created some beautiful memories. Surprisingly, he just took a picture of us handed back my camera and rode off before we could express our gratitude. The photo he took is one of the most cherished and prized of our trip.
I learned my lesson in the journey. We should never judge a man by his appearanee. If the motoreyele driver reads this story and remembers the situation we would like to say “thank you” to him.
41. Aecording to the passags, what do we know about the trip?
A. It’s a suggestion from their friends.
B. It’s in late autumn six year ago.
C. It’s taken by train to the west.
D. It’s a gift for their wedding anniversary.
42. What surprised the author and his wife on their wedding anniversary?
A. A lot of presents and congratulations.
B. The old friends with gifts and wishes.
C. Their trip out into Yellowstone National Park.
D. Their sons holding their wedding anniversary.
43. Why the author was nervous when the motoreyclist offered to take a picture?
A. Because the motoreyelist would break the camera.
B. Because the motoreyelist might not be good at taking picture.
C. Because he could have lost the camera with memories.
D. Because his wife might not be satisfied with the view.
44. Which of the following ean be concluded according to the passage?
A. There is no best, only better.
B. Don’t judge a book by its cover.
C. Put yourself in others’ shoes.
D. A contented mind is an everlasting feast.

This year some twenty-three hundred teenagers (young people aged from 13 to 19) from all over the world will spend about ten months in US homes. They will attend US schools, meet US teenagers, and form impressions of the real America. At the same time, about thirteen hundred American teenagers will go to other countries to learn new language and gain a new understanding of the rest of the world.
Here is a two-way student exchange in action. Fred, nineteen, spent last year in Germany with George’s family. In turn, George’s son Mike spent a year in Fred’s home in America.
Fred, a lively young man, knew little German when he arrived, but after two months’ study, the language began to come to him. Schools were completely different from what he had expected—much harder. Students rose respectfully when the teacher entered the room. They took fourteen subjects instead of the six that are usual in the United States. There were almost no outside activities.
Family life, too, was different. The father’s word was law, and all activities were around the family rather than the individual. Fred found the food too simple at first. Also, he missed having a car.
“Back home, you pick up some friends in a car and go out and have a good time. In Germany, you walk, but you soon learn to like it.”
At the same time, In America, Mike, a friendly German boy, was also forming his idea. “I suppose I should criticize American schools,” he says, “It is far too easy by our level. But I have to say that I like it very much. In Germany we do nothing but study. Here we take part in many outside activities. I think that maybe your schools are better in training for citizens. There ought to be some middle ground between the two countries”.
46. The world exchange programme is mainly to ______.
A. help teenagers in other countries know the real America
B. send students in America to travel in Germany
C. let students learn something about other countries
D. have teenagers learn new languages
47. Fred and Mike agreed that ______.
A. American food tastes better than German food
B. German schools were harder than American schools
C. Americans and Germans were both friendly
D There were more cars on the streets in America
48. What is particular in American schools is that ______.
A. there is some middle ground between the two teaching buildings
B. there are a lot of after-school activities
C. students usually take fourteen subjects in all
D. students walk outside to enjoy themselves
49. After experiencing the German school life, Fred thought ______.
A. The life in Germany schools was easier for students
B. German schools had a lot of outside activities
C. American schools were not as good as German schools
D. The life in American schools was easier for students
50. After experiencing the American school life, Mike thought ______.
A. a better education should include something good from both America and Germany
B. German schools trained students to be better citizens
C. American schools were as good as German schools
D. the easy life in the American schools was more helpful to students

阅读下面短文,并按照题目要求用英语回答问题。
My teenage son Karl changed a lot after he lost his father. As a single parent, I tried to talk to him. It didn’t work. He kept silent all the time. But the more I tried, the more he pulled away. He was still withdrawn. When his report card arrived during his junior year, it said that he had been absent 95 times from classes and had six falling grades for the year. At this rate he would never graduate. I sent him to the school adviser, and I even begged him. Nothing worked.
One night I felt so powerless that I got down on my knees and prayed for help. “Please God, I can’t do anything more for my son. I’m giving the whole thing up to you.”
I was at work when I got a phone call. A man introduced himself as the headmaster. “I want to talk to you about Karl’s absences.” Before he could say another word, I choked up and all my disappointment and sadness over Karl came pouring out into the ears of this stranger. “I love my son but I just don’t know what to do. I’ve tried everything to get Karl to go back to school and nothing has worked. It’s out of my hands.” “For a moment there was silence on the other end of the line.” The headmaster seriously said, “Thank you for yourtime”, and hung up.
Karl’s next report card showed a marked improvement in his grades. Finally, he even made the honor roll. In his fourth year, I attended a parent—teacher meeting with Karl. I noticed that his teachers were astonished at the way he had turned himself around. On our way home, he said: “Mum, remember that call from the headmaster last year? I nodded. “That was me. I thought I’d play a joke but when I heard what you said, it really hit me how much I was hurting you. That’s when I knew I had to make you proud.”

Six years ago, something unforgettable happened. My wife, Liz and I celebrated our 50th wedding anniversary that year. It was a lovely event hosted by our sons for us. Many wonderful friends from the past surprised us with presents and congratulations. Our gift to each other was a driving trip out west. We drove from Ontario into Alberta, then southward into Glacier National Park in Montana and continued to Yellowstone National Park.
It was a cold spring day and the Beartooth Highway had opened for the season just days before. Along side the road there was still a great amount of snow remaining. The scenery was so impressive that we made numerous stops to record memories with my camera. At almost the highest point of the highway, I stopped at a lookout to catch the amazing views with my wife in the center of my camera lens (镜头).
There were not many vehicles on the road. Occasionally cars with energetie young tourists passed by. And then we heard a motoreyele in the distance. The driver of the motorcycle in rags (衣衫褴褛) parked behind our car. As he approached us his only words were, “Give me your camera and get over there with your wife.” I must admit I felt nervous that we might be robbed where we just created some beautiful memories. Surprisingly, he just took a picture of us handed back my camera and rode off before we could express our gratitude. The photo he took is one of the most cherished and prized of our trip.
I learned my lesson in the journey. We should never judge a man by his appearanee. If the motoreyele driver reads this story and remembers the situation we would like to say “thank you” to him.

A. Because the motoreyelist would break the camera.
B. Because the motoreyelist might not be good at taking picture.
C. Because he could have lost the camera with memories.

This year some twenty-three hundred teenagers (young people aged from 13 to 19) from all over the world will spend about ten months in US homes. They will attend US schools, meet US teenagers, and form impressions of the real America. At the same time, about thirteen hundred American teenagers will go to other countries to learn new language and gain a new understanding of the rest of the world.
Here is a two-way student exchange in action. Fred, nineteen, spent last year in Germany with George’s family. In turn, George’s son Mike spent a year in Fred’s home in America.
Fred, a lively young man, knew little German when he arrived, but after two months’ study, the language began to come to him. Schools were completely different from what he had expected—much harder. Students rose respectfully when the teacher entered the room. They took fourteen subjects instead of the six that are usual in the United States. There were almost no outside activities.
Family life, too, was different. The father’s word was law, and all activities were around the family rather than the individual. Fred found the food too simple at first. Also, he missed having a car.
“Back home, you pick up some friends in a car and go out and have a good time. In Germany, you walk, but you soon learn to like it.”
At the same time, In America, Mike, a friendly German boy, was also forming his idea. “I suppose I should criticize American schools,” he says, “It is far too easy by our level. But I have to say that I like it very much. In Germany we do nothing but study. Here we take part in many outside activities. I think that maybe your schools are better in training for citizens. There ought to be some middle ground between the two countries”.
46. The world exchange programme is mainly to ______.
A. help teenagers in other countries know the real America
B. send students in America to travel in Germany
C. let students learn something about other countries
D. have teenagers learn new languages
47. Fred and Mike agreed that ______.
A. American food tastes better than German food
B. German schools were harder than American schools
C. Americans and Germans were both friendly
D. There were more cars on the streets in America
48 What is particular in American schools is that ______.
A there is some middle ground between the two teaching buildings
B. there are a lot of after-school activities
C. students usually take fourteen subjects in all
D. students walk outside to enjoy themselves
49. After experiencing the German school life, Fred thought ______.
A. The life in Germany schools was easier for students
B. German schools had a lot of outside activities
C. American schools were not as good as German schools
D. The life in American schools was easier for students
50. After experiencing the American school life, Mike thought ______.
A. a better education should include something good from both America and Germany
B. German schools trained students to be better citizens
C. American schools were as good as German schools
D. the easy life in the American schools was more helpful to students

阅读下面短文,并按照题目要求用英语回答问题。
My teenage son Karl changed a lot after he lost his father. As a single parent, I tried to talk to him. It didn’t work. He kept silent all the time. But the more I tried, the more he pulled away. He was still withdrawn. When his report card arrived during his junior year, it said that he had been absent 95 times from classes and had six falling grades for the year. At this rate he would never graduate. I sent him to the school adviser, and I even begged him. Nothing worked.
One night I felt so powerless that I got down on my knees and prayed for help. “Please God, I can’t do anything more for my son. I’m giving the whole thing up to you.”
I was at work when I got a phone call. A man introduced himself as the headmaster. “I want to talk to you about Karl’s absences.” Before he could say another word, I choked up and all my disappointment and sadness over Karl came pouring out into the ears of this stranger. “I love my son but I just don’t know what to do. I’ve tried everything to get Karl to go back to school and nothing has worked. It’s out of my hands.” “For a moment there was silence on the other end of the line.” The headmaster seriously said, “Thank you for yourtime”, and hung up.
Karl’s next report card showed a marked improvement in his grades. Finally, he even made the honor roll. In his fourth year, I attended a parent—teacher meeting with Karl. I noticed that his teachers were astonished at the way he had turned himself around. On our way home, he said: “Mum, remember that call from the headmaster last year? I nodded. “That was me. I thought I’d play a joke but when I heard what you said, it really hit me how much I was hurting you. That’s when I knew I had to make you proud.”

I’m giving the whole thing up to you.”(一天晚上,我感到无能为力,于是我跪下来祈求帮助。“上帝啊,我不能再为我儿子做什么了。我把这一切都交给你了。”)”可知,作者把儿子送到学校辅导员那里,甚至恳求他来改变他,并且跪下来祈求上帝。故答案为:She sent him to the school adviser, begged him and got down on her kness, praying God for help.
