While relaxing and enjoying the aloneness, I sensed a battle for favorable position between the highly-spirited water and the large rocks resting on the bed along the edges of the stream. At first; the rocks, stubborn, immovable and unbending, seemed to have their way with their adversary (对手). However, the water, determined yet forgiving, seemed merely inconvenienced by the presence of the rocks, as it effortlessly changed its course, running towards its original destination. Soon it became clear that the rocks, although remaining strong and firm, were losing this battle as the water's total indifference began to slowly reform these obstacles (障碍) into smooth and beautifully polished stones. You see, there seemed to be total lack of struggle associated with the water's journey. Struggle is like bondage (束缚) forcing harmony and the water would have none of that. On the contrary，the water seemed perfectly content to move around the rocks when necessary, following some route God had originally intended. I paused for thought. Maybe people need to be more determined and less stubborn. Maybe human beings need to always be open to different points of view, not afraid to readjust their direction as life presents all of its new and unforeseen challenges. 56. When hiking in the foothills, the author was ______. A. lonely             B. delighted               C. nervous             D. confused 57. When fighting with the water, the rocks ______. A. were made into irregular patterns            B. were lacking in the spirit of struggle C. stuck to their original method all the way D. redesigned their path according to the situation 58. The water won the battle mainly because it ‎ was______. A. changeable        B. brave                       C. aggressive         D. powerful 59. The author wrote the text mainly to _______. A. stress the importance of determination     B. praise the open-mindedness of the stream C. share with us his interesting journey        D. give us some advice on how to deal with challenges B A program in the United States invites young people to visit a prison. The goal is to teach them to avoid bad choices and bad influences that could put them behind bars for life. Students can take a tour of the prison, in school groups or by themselves.At the end, the young people sit down for a discussion with some of the inmates. The program is called Prisoners Against Teen Tragedy, or PATT. It takes place at the Maryland Correctional Institution-HagerstoWn, a medium-security prison for men. Sal Mauriello, a case specialist, said,“We have agroup of eleven inmates who are in the PATT program. They tell the youthwhat they went through as a child, what their crimes consist of. They try toteach them about peer pressure (同伴间的压力). They try to teach them aboutbad choices.” The Prisoners Against Teen Tragedy program also includes anessay-writing contest, and most teens who visit come to un'derstand what evenone bad decision can mean. Prisoners Against Teen Tragedy began in 1988. It is one of Maryland'soldest programs to keep young people from a life of crime. But there are alsoothers. Prison spokesman Mark Vernarelli said, “We found that girls reallyneed special sit-down sessions sometimes more than'boys do, so we have aprogram for girls only. we also have a program that travels across the state,which talks about the dangers of gang affiliation (加入帮派) .” The prisoners in the PATT program also gain from the program.

PATT is a win-win program                B. students should not make friends with prisoners     C. teachers must accompany students in PATT     D. students help improve the conditions of the prison 63. What would be the best title for the text?     A. PATT Helps Prisoners Live a New Life                B. Peer Pressure—a Cause for Youth's Crime     C. A Program to Scare Youth away from Prison        D. Teen Crime—a Great Concern for the Public ‎  C Do you suffer from perfectionism (完美主义)?      According to psychologist and perfectionism researcher, Hamachek D.E., there are two types of perfectionism: normal and neurotic (神经质). A person with normal or healthy perfectionism feels a deep sense of pleasure from the dull effort of working towards “perfect”. And then there are the neurotic or unhealthy perfectionists who never feel satisfied but keep struggling towards impossible goals. These people often measure their own self-worth entirely in terms of productivity and accomplishment. self-worth entirely in terms of productivity and accomplishment. It is necessary to notice if you are struggling and feel tense while trying to perfect your recipe, article, parenting, job, project, etc. — you are fighting and resisting your own humanness (人性). How do you know if you Suffer from perfectionism? ● Are you afraid of making mistakes? ● Do you get impatient with others when they make a mistake? ● If you fail an assignment (任务) at work or school, do you feel like a failure? ● How do you feel when you read these questions? Your relationship with yourself is the foundation for all of your other relationships. If you are hard on yourself, then you will in turn be hard on others. If we are unable to care for our innermost (内心深处的) beings, then our lives will reflect this fault in some way. Embracing (拥抱) your own humanness is the doorway to seeing the miraclet4(奇迹) of who you are at your ‎ best. Dr. Bernie Siegel writes in his new book on miracles,“Our body loves us, but it needs to know we love our lives in order for it to do all it can to help us survive. The change in body energy motivated by the love leads to chemical changes in our body and makes a difference. In many cases, this kind of miracle needs hard work. But when you are willing to do the work, and live in your heart, it can happen.” 64. According to the text, people with neurotic perfectionism probably _______. A. worry about their health               B. get great pleasure from their hard work C. accept no failure in life                D. take great pride in doing dull work 65. The major difference between normal and neurotic perfectionism lies in_______. A. self-confidence                      B. self-expectation C. sense of accomplishment              D. sense of satisfaction 66. What does the author suggest to people who suffer from perfectionism? A. Being patient with others.              B. Respecting human nature. C. Forgiving their own mistakes.         D. Sticking to their ambitions, 67. In the opinion of Dr. Bernie Siegel, the miracle has roots in _______. A. love of our life                      B. chemical changes in our body C. hard work                         D. eagerness for success D The tough economy is bringing new shoppers to the secondhand market.

In Washington, a federal judge last week blocked the Food and Drug Administration from requiring new warning labels on cigarette packs. Judge Richard Leon ruled in a case brought by five tobacco companies. The judge temporarily stopped a new federal rule which requires large new warnings starting ‎ next September. These include color images such as a dead body or diseased lungs. And simple text warnings now appear. Congress called for color images showing the dangers of smoking, similar to what Canada does. But the tobacco companies say the new requirements approved in June violate (侵犯) their free speech rights guaranteed by the Constitution. Judge Leon said the FDA could not require the new labels before a lawsuit (诉讼)against the government is decided. Some experts say the process could take years. The judge said he believed the cigarette makers were highly likely to win their case. He said the images should be designed to appeal to emotions, rejecting government arguments that they should be purely factual. He accused the government of trying to use the labels to promote an “obvious anti-smoking agenda?” The head of an anti-smoking group, the Campaign for Tobacco-Free Kids, called the decision “wrong on the science and wrong on the law”. About one-fifth of American adults smoke. The World Health Organization says tobacco kills nearly six mil-lion people worldwide each year. More than six hundred thousand of them are non-smokers who breathe other people's tobacco smoke. In Australia, tobacco companies want to stop what would be the world’s most restrictive laws on cigarette advertising. Cigarettes could be sold only in plain olive-green packages. Only the brand name and health warnings could appear. The Senate passed the bill last week and sent it back to the Lower House to approve minor amendments (修正). The law is to go into effect in December of next year. Tobacco companies Say the legislation (法规) violates the Australian constitution. They say it would unjustly reduce the value of their brand names and trademarks. Health Minister Nicola Roxon says the government is ready for a legal fight. 72. What are the tobacco companies ii1 the United States and Australia fighting against? A. The requirements to sell fewer products to the public. B. The requirements to print new warning labels on their products. C. The measures to make their products more attractive. D. The ways to make the companies close their business. 73. What warning label on cigarette packs is being used in the United States? A. An image of a dead body.          B. An image of diseased lungs. C. Text of health warnings.            D. Text of advertisements. 74. Which country has adopted color images showing the dangers of smoking as warning ‎ labels? A. America.                  B. Australia.                  C. Canada.                    D. Britain. 75. In 2013, what will Australian cigarettes probably look like? A. Plain olive-green packages only with health warnings. B. Plain olive-green packages only with the brand name and health warnings. C. Plain packages with the brand name and health warnings. D. Plain packages with color images of a dead body or diseased lungs. 第四部分 写作(共两节，满分35分) 第一节  任务型读写(共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分)     阅读下面短文，根据所读内容在表格中的空白处填入恰当的单词。 注意：每个空格只填一个单词。 Nowadays there are more Women traveling alone, either for the purpose of business or vacations.

I'll be more than glad if you have time to go with me together. By the way, do you have in mind something with unique Chinese features? If you do, just let me know and I'll bring some for you, when I come over to London. Looking forward to your reply. Yours, Li Hua ‎【解析】 单项填空   21．C。句意：—妈妈，我可以把这本杂志带回家吗？—恐怕不行，亲爱的。你应该读后放回原处。 22．B。句意：—晚会的一切都准备好了吗？—还没有呢。我还需要一些花来装饰房间。anything虽然可以用于疑问句，但是填入后意为“晚会准备什么东西了吗？”，不合题意。 23．A。consider doing意为“考虑做某事”。句意：面临严峻的就业形势，许多毕业生正考虑到农村工作。 24．C。besides除……之外还。句意：除了当编辑外，他在业余时间还翻译小说。 25．D。which在句中引导非限定性定语从句。从句中的不定式作定语修饰a'wise thing。 26．D。whatever在句中引导让步状语从句，并在从句中作like的宾语。从句应用陈述语序。句意：不管明天天气如何，运动会都会按计划举行。 27．A。go out外出；熄灭；go over复习；检查；go on继续；go through经历，遭受。句意：上次我们野营的时候过得很艰难，因为在寒夜里火熄灭了。 28.
