He hadn’t worked out quite what was wrong with her. He knew, though that she hadn’t been well for some time now, and it had become almost familiar to him to see her eyes narrowed in a sudden attack of pain, and her hand pressing against her heart. Their own doctor, who she had finally gone to for advice, had sent her to an expert who knew all about these things. He had told her that just as soon as there was a bed for her, she would have to come into his hospital where he could look after her himself.‎ During the weeks since then the pains had come even more frequently, and the narrowed eyes became an almost permanent part of her expression. Always rather sharp, she began losing her temper over little things so that John’s father kept his thoughts to himself more and more. John, as ready as possible to make allowances, tried to think what it would be like to have toothache all the time and how bad-tempered that would make you.‎ So his mother would go into hospital for a few days. He was going to stay with his Aunt Daisy till she came back, and his father would stay on at home by himself. John’s cousin, Mona, was to come in and make the bed and wash the pots and dust round now and again. That was the arrangement, and John didn’t care much for it. Apart from missing his mother(and he was glad she was going away because they would make her better), he wasn’t very fond of his Aunt Daisy because she was even more bad-tempered than his mother.‎ ‎21. Mrs Weston went to see her doctor_________.‎ A. as soon as she realized that something was wrong B. only after her husband advised her to C. a long time after the trouble began D. when John asked what was wrong with her ‎22. what did Mrs Weston’s own doctor decide to do?‎ A. He decided to send her to hospital ‎ B. He decided to get an expert to examine her C. He decided to treat her himself D. He advised her to wait for a few weeks.‎ ‎23. How did John react to his mother’s bad temper?‎ A. He tried to imagine himself in her place.‎ B. He tried not to notice it.‎ C. He pretended that he had toothache.‎ D. He behaved himself as well as possible.‎ ‎24. John regarded ______as most bad-tempered.‎ A. his father B. his mother C. his cousin Mona D. his aunt Daisy【来源：全,品…中&高*考+网】‎ B There is very simple way of measuring the height of a water-tower, which we cannot measure by climbing.‎ Suppose, for example, that we wish to find out the height of the water-tower, AB, in a factory. We first of all go to where the water-tower is standing and measure a distance of, say, 25 feet from it. Then we take a stick, and stand it in the ground at the spot we have just marked.‎ Let us suppose the stick we are using is 4 feet in height. We now walk farther away from the water –tower in the same straight line as when we measured off the distance of 25 feet. We go from the water-tower until we come to point E, where with our head on the ground, we see the top of the stick and the top of the water-tower in the same height line---that is, the top of the stick just covers the highest part of the water-tower. Every schoolboy can work out the height of the water-tower now.‎ Suppose that the line CE is five feet. We know that the stick is 4 feet high and the distance BE is 30 feet. Thus, 5 is to 4 as 30 is to AB.‎ ‎25.If we want to know how high a tall tree is,_______.‎ A. we have to climb up the tree B. we have no way out C. we must cut down the tree D we needn’t climb up the tree ‎26. According to the passage, which of the following is correct?‎ ‎27. It is clear from this that the problem can be settled by _________. A. a child B. the boy who has little schooling C. everyone D. a girl at middle school ‎28. To measure a water-tower in this way, _________.‎ A. no tool is needed B. Besides a stick, tape-measure (卷尺) or at least a ruler is necessary.‎ C. we have to use nothing but a stick ‎ D. we have to prepare a set of expensive tools 第二节：阅读七选五（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。‎ Everyone can benefit from making an effort to practice gratitude every day. 29 These three steps can help you start feeling more grateful and appreciative of the good things in your life. ‎ ‎ 30___ ‎ Start to notice and identify the things you are grateful for. Each day, think of three things you are grateful for. Then start a gratitude journal. Writing down good things each day makes it more likely that you will notice good things as they happen. ‎ Savor (品味) the feeling of gratitude.‎ There are moments when you naturally, right then and there, feel full of gratitude. These are moments when you say to yourself, “Oh, wow, this is amazing!” or “How great it is!” Pause. 31 Let it sink in. Savor your blessings the moment they happen.‎ Express gratitude.‎ Expressing gratitude is more than being polite. It’s about showing your heartfelt appreciation. When someone really did something nice, you could say, “It was really kind of you to...”, “It really helped me out when you...”, “You did me a big favor when...”, “Thank you for your listening when...”, “I really appreciated it when you taught me...”, or “Thank you for being there when...” 32__ ‎ True gratitude doesn’t leave you feeling like you owe other people something. 33 It’s all about feeling good and creating a cycle of good.‎ A. Notice the good things in your life.‎ B. You can also write your gratitude in a letter.‎ C. How can you practice gratitude on a daily basis?‎ D. Notice and absorb that feeling of true, genuine gratitude.‎ E. Gratitude might inspire you to act with kindness and thoughtfulness.‎ F. Hold the door open for the person behind you, even if it means waiting a little longer.‎ G. If you’ve done somebody a favor, you probably don’t want the person to feel like you expect something in return.‎ 第三部分：英语知识应用 ‎ 第一节：完形填空（共20小题：每小题1.5分，满分30分）阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。‎ It was a Sunday afternoon and, unlike the past few weekends, the four of us did not sit at the kitchen table playing cards. 　 That evening, my parents 34 my sister Emily and me down in the living room because they said that they 35 to talk to us. 　 My father began slowly, as if he was 36 something back.
