One day recently, Laurie Fenby was shopping at a garage sale in Rochester New York and as she was leaving,she found a wallet on the ground.
Laurie looked inside and found a Jamaican(牙买加人的)driver's license,some American cash and some Jamaican cash. She tried all the usual ways to find the man, whose name was George. She couldn't find him through Google or Facebook and then she asked for suggestions through Next door, a community website. Laurie received a lot of ideas and responses-some of them were not so positive. But one lady advised her to contact a little store that is known to have many Jamaican migrant workers as clients. Laurie called the store and found that yes, indeed, there was someone named George who lost his wallet.
Laurie suggested that the store owner contact George and have him call her. When George contacted her, he was able to identify everything in the wallet and Laurie was able to return it. But it didn't stop there.Laurie asked George,"What do you and the migrant workers need?" He said they need some warm clothes.Laurie immediately contacted the community and was able to organize a clothing drive. She received lots of coats, jackets, shoes and other supplies. Recently Laurie met George and the other migrant workers in Rochester, and she joined them to pick apples together.
They were so thankful to Laurie and her friends-and none of this community building or friendship would have happened if Laurie had not been so kind.

The Answer Is Right There above You
If you put a buzzard in a fence six to eight feet square and cntirely open at the top, the bird, in spite of its ability to fly, will be an absolute prisoner. The reason is that a buzzard always begins a flight from the ground with a run of ten to twelve feet. Without space to run, as is its habit, it will not even attempt to fly,but remain a prisoner for life in a small jail with no top.
The ordinary bat flying around at night is a remarkable quick-moving creature in the air. But placed on the floor or flat ground, it has to shuffle about helplessly and, no doubt, painfully, until it reaches some slight elevation from which it can throw itself into the air. Then, at once, it takes off like a flash.
A bumblebee if dropped into an open tumbler(平底玻璃杯)will be there until it dies, unless it is taken out. It never sees the means of escape at the top, but keeps trying to find some way out through the sides near the bottom.
In many ways, there are lots of people like the buzzard, the bat and the bumblebee. They are struggling about with all their problems and frustrations, not realizing that the answer is right there above them.
28.Based on Paragraph 1, in what case can a buzzard fly?
A.It's not old enough. B. It's got enough space to run.
C. It's a prisoner in a small jail. D. It's caught in a fence.
29.The underlined word "shuffle" (in para. 2) is closest in meaning to " "
A.run fast B.mix up C.fly low D.walk slowly
50.How can the bumblebee get out of an open tumbler by itself according to the text?
A. It can be taken out. B. It can get out through the side.
C. It can escape at the top. D.It can jump up from the bottom.
31.The author expresses his views by
A.making a comparison B.using examples
C.making a speech D.giving advice
D
Bad news sells. If it bleeds, it leads. No news is good news, and good news is no news. Those are the classic rules for the evening broadcasts and the morning papers But now that information is being spread and monitored(监控)in different ways, researchers are discovering new rules. By tracking people's e-mails
and online posts, scientists have found that good news can spread faster and farther than disasters and sob stories.
"The 'if it bleeds' rule works for mass media," says Jonah Berger, a scholar at the University of Pennsylvania."They want your eyeballs and don't care how you're feeling. But when you share a story with your friends, you care a lot more how they react. You don't want them to think of you as a Debbie Downer."
Researchers analyzing word-of-mouth communication - e-mails, Web posts and reviews,face-to-face conversations-found that it tended to be more positive than negative, but that didn't necessarily mean people preferred positive news. Was positive news shared more often simply because people experienced more good things than bad things? To test for that possibility, Dr. Berger looked at how people spread a particular set of news stories: thousands of articles on The New York Times' website.He and a Penn colleague analyzed the "most e-mailed" list for six months. One of his first findings was that articles in the science section were much more likely to make the list than non-science articles. He found that science amazed Times' readers and made them want to share this positive feeling with others.
Readers also tended to share articles that were exciting or funny, or that inspired negative feelings like anger or anxiety, but not articles that left them merely sad. They needed to be aroused (激发)one way or the other,and they preferred good news to bad. The more positive an article, the more likely it was to be shared,as Dr. Berger explains in his new book, “Contagious:Why Things Catch On.”
32 What do the classic rules mentioned in the text apply to?
A. Research papers. B.News reports. C. Daily conversations. D. Private e-mails.
33.What can we infer about people like Detbie Downer?
A.They're inconsiderate of others. B.They're careful with their words.
C.They're socially inactive. D.They're good at telling stories.
34. Which tended to be the most e-mailed according to Dr. Berger's research?
A.Personal accounts. B. Sports news. C.Financial reviews.D.Science articles.
35.What can be a suitable title for the text?
A.Readng Habits Change with the Times
B.Online News Attracts More People
C.Good News Beats.Bad on Social Networks
D.Sad Stories Travel Far and Wide

Both men and women are living longer these days in industrialized countries. 36 In general,they can expect to live six or seven years more than men. One reason for this is biological.
One important biological factor that helps women live longer is the difference in hormones between men and women. 37 Between the ages of about 12 and 50, women produce hormones that are involved in fertility(生育能力).These hormones also have a positive effect on the heart and blood flow. In fact,women are less likely to have high blood pressure or to die from heart attacks.
38 -They help the body defend itself against some kinds of infections. This means that women generally get sick less often and less seriously than men. The common cold is a good example: women, on average,get fewer colds than men.
39_Scientists are still not exactly sure how genes influence aging, but they believe that they do.Some think that a woman's body cells have a tendency to age more slowly than a man's. Others think that a man's body cells have a tendency to age more quickly. 40_
A.Therefore, women are more healthy than men and can live a better life.
B. Hormones are chemicals which are produced by the body to control various body functions.
C. However, women, on average, live longer.
D. Women are also helped by their female genes.
E. The biological factor plays an important part.
F. The female hormones also protect the body in another way.
G. Recent research seems to support both of these possibilities.

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。
December 5, 2012, was a very special day for Josephine and Scott Lansing, as it marked the fourth adoption for the Lansings.
When they began the journey to adopt their first daughter, Cloe, years ago,Josephine and Scott Lansing never imagined they would eventually have a house full of girls. The couple later adopted Josie in 2011 and Annabelle in 2012.For the Lansing family, adoption is about giving every child the opportunity to grow healthily in a loving home. Scott and Josephine are great advocates for each of their daughters, and they make sure each child knows how special and loved they are.
In February of 2009, Bethany entered into the care of Child Protective Services due to her mother's inability to care for her and her brothers and sisters. Her experiences made it very difficult for her to trust adults, since she learned from an early age that she could only count on herself. She lived in a shelter for several months before moving into a foster home(寄养家庭).Still,Bethany struggled to understand why she had been taken away from the only family she had known. In May of 2010, Bethany was placed at Helping Hand Home for Children, where her journey to return to normal finally began. With the patience, support,and guidance of the Helping Hand Home staff, Bethany developed healthily, and expressed her emotions in appropriate ways. She was taught to respect herself, and she learned that it was okay to trust others.
When Bethany was introduced to the Lansing family in June of 2012, the meeting did not go as smoothly as everyone hoped. Bethany's insecurities resurfaced due to the suffering she experienced at such a young age, and she refused to talk or even look at the Lansings at their first meeting.
注意:续写词数应为150左右。
Para1.But the Lansing family had no intention to give up.
Para2,Later, Bethany experienced a lot of exciting things.

写作: 一、
Dear Jackson,
I’m writing to share with you my life plan in the future. When I grow up,I want to be a journalist.
I think working for a newspaper and reporting news from all over the world would be really exciting. Journalists are to be very enthusiastic,independent and good at communicating with people. Hence I am trying to improve my speaking and writing skills. And of course,absorbing as much knowledge as possible at this stage in my life is what I must do.
What about your life plan?What do you think of my life plan?Any suggestions are welcome.
Yours,
Li Hua
二、读后续写
But the Lansing family had no intention to give up. They were patient with Bethany and explained that they wanted to get to know her better and hoped she would one day be part of their family. The other girls shared their stories of coming from the foster care system,and they told her how scared they had been about meeting a new family too and how happy they were now. Soon Bethany’s anxiety eased,and she agreed to go and see her new home.
Later,Bethany experienced a lot of exciting things. From many hours spent at the neighborhood pool to her first trip to the beach,Bethany now lived a normal life every child deserves. The Lansings celebrated Bethany’s 11th birthday on a cruise ship. When Bethany returns to the Helping Hand Home to visit now,the first thing everyone comments on is her self-confidence. The little girl who was once afraid to make eye contact is now a secure,fun young lady who would talk your ear off.
