He first worked on a newspaper, and then had a job in a bank. When some money went missing from the bank, O. Henry was believed to have stolen it. Because of that, he was sent to prison. During the three years in prison, he learned to write short stories. After he got out of prison, he went to New York and continued writing.

The best way of learning English is talking in English as much as possible. Sometimes you'll get your words mixed up and people will not understand you. Sometimes people will say things too quickly and you can't understand them. But if you keep your sense of humor, you can always have a good laugh at the mistakes you make. Don't be unhappy if people seem to be laughing at your mistakes. It's better for people to laugh at your mistakes than to be angry with you, because they don't understand what you are saying.

Once you get him out of the water, if he isn't breathing, you have four minutes before his brain is completely destroyed. Support his neck, move his head back and press his chin upwards. This stops the tongue blocking the airway in the throat and is sometimes enough to get him breathing again. If that doesn't work, start mouth-to-mouth breathing. Press his nostrils（鼻孔）together with your fingers. Open your mouth ‎ and take a deep breath. Blow into his lungs until his chest rises, then remove your mouth and watch his chest fall. Repeat twelve times a minute. Keep doing until professional help arrives. ‎ To bring a child back to life, keep your lips around his mouth and gently blow into his mouth. Give the first four breaths as quickly as possible to fill the blood with oxygen. If, in spite of your efforts, he starts turning a blue-grey color, and you can feel no pulse(脉搏), then pressing is the last chance of saving his life. ‎ With arms straight, rock forwards, pressing down on the lower half of the breastbone. Don't be too hard or you may break a rib. Check how effective you are by seeing if his color improves or his pulse becomes independent to your chest pressing. If this happens, stop the pressing. Otherwise continue until rescue arrives. ‎ ‎28 .

Because of her English, she was often treated unfairly. People in department stores, at banks, and at restaurants did not take her seriously, did not give her good service, pretended not to understand her, or even acted as if they did not hear her.‎ My mother has realized the limitations of her English as well. When I was fifteen, she used to have me call people on phone to pretend I was her. I was forced to ask for information or even to yell at people who had been rude to her. One time I had to call her stockbroker (股票经纪人). I said in a young voice that was not very convincing, “This is Mrs. Tan.”‎ And my mother was standing beside me, whispering loudly, “Why he don’t send me cheek already two week lone.”‎ And then, in perfect English I said: “I’m getting rather concerned .You agreed to send the check two weeks ago, but it hasn’t arrived.”‎ Then she talked more loudly. “What he want? I come to New York tell him front of his boss.” And so I turned to the stockbroker again, “I can’t tolerate any more excuse. If I don’t receive the check immediately, I am going to speak to your manager when I am in New York next ‎ week.”‎ The next week we ended up in New York. While I was sitting there red-faced, my mother, the real Mrs. Tan, was shouting to his boss in her broken English.‎ When I was a teenager, my mother’s broken English embarrassed me. But now, I see it differently. To me, my mother’s English is perfectly clear, perfectly natural. It is my mother tongue. Her language, as I hear it, is vivid, direct, and full of observation and wisdom. It was the language that helped shape the way I saw things, expressed ideas, and made sense of the world.‎ ‎32. Why was the author’s mother poorly served?‎ ‎ A. She was too shy to speak clearly. ‎ B. She couldn’t make herself understood.‎ ‎ C. She was unable to speak good English. ‎ D. She was not a native America.‎ ‎33.

After the author made the phone call, .‎ A. they forgave the stockbroker ‎ B. telephone the stockbroker’s manager ‎ C. they went to New York immediately ‎ D. they failed to get the check ‎35. What does the author think of her mother’s English now?‎ ‎ A. It helps her understand the world. ‎ B. It embarrasses her.‎ ‎ C. It confuses her. ‎ D. It helps her tolerate rude people. ‎ 第二节（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。‎ ‎ Secret codes (密码) keep messages private. Bank, companies, and government agencies use secret code in doing business, especially when information is sent by computer.‎ ‎ People have used secret codes for thousands of years. 36 Code breaking never lags (落后) behind code making. The science of decoding and reading coded messages is called cryptography.‎ ‎ There are three main types of cryptography. 37 For example, the first letters are “My elephant eats too many eels” spell out the hidden message “Meet me.”‎ ‎ 38 You might represent each letter with a number, for example, let’s number the letters of the alphabet, in order, from 1 to 26. If we substitute a number for each letter, the message “Meet me” would read “1 3 5 20 13 5”.‎ ‎ A code uses symbols to replace words, phrases, or sentences. To read the message of a real code, you must have a code book. 39 For example, “bridge” might stand for “meet” and “out” might stand for “me”. The message “bridge out” would actually mean “Meet me”. 40 However, it is also hard to keep a code book secret for long. So codes must be changed frequently.‎ A. It is very hard to break a code without a code book.‎ B. In any language, some letters are used more than others.‎ C. Only people who know the keyword can read the message.‎ D. As long as there have been codes, people have tried to break them.‎ E. You can hide a message by having the first letters of each word spell it out. ‎ F. With a code book, you might write down words that would stand for other words.‎ G. Another way to hide a message is to use symbols to stand for specific letters of the alphabet.‎ 第三部分 英语知识运用（共两节，满分45分）‎ 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选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。‎ A young man who lived in London was in love with a beautiful girl.

Although he had tried to ignore them, all his mathematical calculations led 62 the same conclusion:that the earth was not the centre of the solar system. Only if you put the sun there did the movements of the other planets in the sky make sense. Yet he could not tell anyone about 63 （he） theory as the powerful Christian Church would have punished him for even 64 (suggest) such an idea. They believed God had made the world and for that reason the earth was special and must be the centre of the solar system.‎ ‎　　The problem 65 (arise) because astronomers had noticed 66 some planets in the sky seemed to stop, move backward and then go forward in a loop. Others appeared 67 (bright )at times and less bright at others. This was very strange if the earth was the centre of the solar system and all planets went round it.‎ ‎　　Copernicus had thought long and hard about these problems and tried to find an answer. He had collected 68 (observe) of the stars and used all his mathematical knowledge to explain them. But only his new theory could do that. So 69 1510 and 1514 he worked on it, gradually improving his theory until he felt it was 70 (completely).‎ 第四部分 写作 （共两节 满分35分） ‎ 第一节 短文改错（共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分） ‎ 假定英语课上老师要求同桌之间交换修改作文，请你修改你同桌写的以下作文。‎ 文中共有10处语言错误，每句中最多有两处。每处错误仅涉及一个单词的增加、删除或修改。‎ ‎ 增加：在缺词处加一个漏字符号（），并在其下面写出该加的词。‎ ‎ 删除：把多余的词用斜线（）划掉。‎ 修改：在错的词下划一横线，并在该词下面写出修改后的词。‎ 注意：1. 每处错误及其修改均仅限一词；‎ ‎2. 只允许修改10处，多者（从第11处起）不计分。‎ By the way, did you know that this is because you become addicted to three different ways?
