A good friend should be kind and patient.For example,if you have a bad day,a good friend should listen to your complaints and do his or her best to help.To make a friend,you cannot be too shy.You should make each other happy and share your lives.‎ But things cannot always be happy.Even the best friends have fights.What should you do when you have a fight with your friend?You have to talk to him or her.When there is no one around,have an honest talk.If he or she doesn't want to talk,you could write a letter.‎ There are three steps to being friends again: Tell him or her how you are feeling;say what your friend has done wrong,and explain why you did this or that.Remember that friendship is the most important thing in your life.‎ ‎4.Sally wants to tell students the ways to_______.‎ A.find friends B.plant trees C.get happy D.keep fit ‎5.What makes good friends?‎ A.A good friend should be lovely and cool. ‎ B.A good friend should be kind and patient.‎ C.A good friend should have lots of money. ‎ D.A good friend should have good looks.‎ ‎6.According to the text.you can_______your friend after a fight.‎ A.buy a present for B.never say a word to ‎ C.have dinner with D.write a letter to ‎7.What is the best title of the text?‎ A.The development and maintenance of friendship. ‎ B.The good friends around you.‎ C.The trouble of growing up. ‎ D.The keeping of friendship.‎ C A few years back I worked in a university building that also housed a department full of psychologists, all of whom seemed to see us as perfect guinea pigs（豚鼠） for their latest theories. If an eager graduate student showed up in my office bearing desserts and asked me to pick one, I'd cast a careful glance and ask “Why?” before grabbing the apple pie.‎ So one day, when someone from the Psychology Department posted instructions in the bathroom persuading all of us to “Think about five things for which you're grateful every day for a week!”, my response was frankly doubtful. I did the math. Five things a day for seven days is a lot of brainpower to expend without so much as the promise of an apple pie.‎ I wandered into the office of Heidi Zetzer, the director of our school's Psychological Services Clinic.“What's with the gratitude thing?”I asked. You don't ask an academic question－even a simple one unless you're prepared for a long answer. Heidi came alive, and I sat ‎ down. That's when I first heard the term “positive psychology”. The gratitude thing, as I had called it, was but one small and simple element of the practice. “Kind of like training the brain to focus on joy,” my friend Heidi explained. “It's only a week,” she urged. “Try it.” I did. And guess what? It worked.‎ Every day for a week, I found five distinct things for which I was thankful. They had to be different every day. I couldn't get away with just being grateful for my wonderful husband. But I could, suggested Collie Conoley, another positive psychologist, express my gratitude for specific aspects of a certain person each day. He's a great cook. He always puts our family first.‎ Life will never be perfect. I still see new stories that annoy me. The traffic in my city is maddening. I wish I could speed up my recovery. But with just one simple exercise, I'm rediscovering the peace of that old saying: accepting the things I can't change, working without complaint to change what I can, and being wise enough to know the difference.‎ And all it took was a little gratitude.‎ ‎8．What's the author's attitude toward the student with desserts?‎ A．Cautious. B．Respectful.‎ C．Indifferent. D．Supportive.‎ ‎9．Why was the author doubtful about the instructions?‎ A．Because she thought it wasn't worth the effort.‎ B．Because she didn't like expressing thanks often.‎ C．Because she needed to ask her friend to do it first.‎ D．Because she could do five things every day easily.‎ ‎10．What does Collie Conoley suggest the author should do?‎ A．Be grateful to her wonderful husband.‎ B．Be thankful for things but not people.‎ C．Be a great cook and put her family first.‎ D．Be specific about what she's thankful for.‎ ‎ 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。‎ Vacations are important. We need to take time out from work to relax, and just be ourselves. __11__ We should all be allowed to leave our jobs behind us — at least for a few weeks each year — and just have fun. This might be something as simple as reading a good book in front of a warm fireplace through to travelling to the most interesting places on our planet. Whatever we fancy doing is worth taking time out for.‎ Workplace stress is on the rise. __12__ These include disease, depression and even death. We all seem to be running from one place to the next, never finding out where we want to go in the first place. I intend to break that trend in the coming days. __13__ I will sleep late, write, watch movies, drink the occasional glass of wine, and eat to my heart’s content ignoring calorie counting. My plan is to just enjoy the fleeting moments of being alive.‎ ‎__14__ Spend your next vacation the way you want. Do what will restore your mental health. You’re very valuable to the people who are close to you, and to those who depend on it. Like it or not, we are all interdependent in this great life of ours.‎ You are valuable. Just remember that the next time you look at the mirror and take a deep breath. Remind yourself that there will never be anyone like you ever on this earth again.‎ ‎ __15__ All you have to do is just ask yourself what you want to do.‎ A. With it come many health problems.‎ B. When you finally get home you'll be greatly refreshed.‎ C. I challenge each one of you to do the same.‎ D. Draw up a detailed plan so you can see more.‎ E.

But one day I read a piece of paper in my dad’s briefcase that 16 everything. That’s when I saw the words: “Simone is said to have Asperger syndrome (自闭症).”‎ I screamed at my dad, “Tell me what it is!” He 17 that I have a mild form of brain disorders, which was a problem that shapes the way I interact with other people. I wasn’t sure exactly what he 18 , but it didn’t matter. I just wanted to try to 19 my shock and go back to the way things were before I knew.‎ But even though I wouldn’t 20 accept the fact, Asperger’s (Asperger syndrome) still destroyed my confidence and made me 21 . I felt like an outcast(被抛弃者) —not just because Asperger’s made it hard for me to make friends, but because now I had this 22 . I just wanted to be like everyone else. 23 , at 16, I said to myself, “Enough! You can’t run and hide from it, girl. Just face it.”‎ It’s funny, the first time I thought something was 24 was not because of what I couldn’t do—it was because of what I could do. In the sixth grade, while other kids were 25 with spelling, I was like a human spell-checker! I’ve also had a photographic memory, and what I call my “super powers”—extrasensory hearing and acute 26 I can 27 phone numbers people dial just by the sound the buttons make when pressed or 28 hear one incorrect note in an entire symphony! And I can 29 pay attention to two things at once.‎ Don’t get me wrong. Asperger’s can be very confusing. For years I felt like a butterfly ‎ 30 in its cocoon (茧），waiting to fly. It took years of work with a psychologist to get over the 31 of making friends.‎ I’m not going to let Asperger’s create 32 for me. That’ why I am happy to have found out about and faced my 33 . Asperger’s is a metaphor (象征) for life: We all have ‎ 34 , but the key is to be able to have the 35 to face what’s bad about them and still find what’s good.‎ ‎16．A．prevented B．improved C．determined D．changed ‎17．A．explained B．realized C．apologized D．suspected ‎18．A．meant B．predicted C．concerned D．doubted ‎19．A．admit B．subscribe C．recognize D．ignore ‎20．A．appropriately B．consciously C．previously D．specially ‎21．A．anxious B．stressed C．lonely D．ashamed ‎22．A．memory B．fate C．label D．matter ‎23．A．Consequently B．Gradually C．Fortunately D．Eventually ‎24．A．unusual B．specific C．uncomfortable D．awkward ‎25．A．combining B．exchanging C．struggling D．dealing ‎26．A．emotion B．awareness C．eyesight D．direction ‎27．A．look out B．call out C．think out D．make out ‎28．A．even B．still C．ever D．just ‎29．A．sensitively B．fully C．flexibly D．firmly ‎30．A．absorbed B．buried C．engaged D．trapped ‎31．A．difficulty B．happiness C．confidence D．bravery ‎32．A．surprises B．limitations C．opportunities D．experiences ‎33．A．failure B．desperation C．disability D．fear ‎34．A．talents B．dreams C．challenges D．aims ‎35．A．ambition B．courage C．right D．chance 第二节：语法填空（共10小题；每小题1.5分，满分15分）‎ 阅读下面材料，在空白处填入适当的内容(1个单词)或用括号内单词的正确形式填空。‎ It was my first time visiting the United States.

Back then, I was 13 years old, and always felt unhappy with Mom. But little did I know that this trip was going to be a special one.‎ A pot of flowers sat in the back seat, whose heavenly scent filled the car.‎ Suddenly, in the middle of nowhere, my mom pulled over. “What are you doing?” I cried, fearing that the car had broken down and we’d be stuck there, so far from home. But that wasn’t the case. My mom hopped out of the car, grabbing the flowers from the back seat. “It’ll just be a minute,” she called back through the open windows.‎ My eyes impatiently skimmed the edge of the road before settling on a little sign showing that it was a nursing home. I looked back to the building, somewhat annoyed, as my mom reappeared—empty-handed.‎ Before she started the car, curiosity drove me to ask, “Do you know someone there?” She shook her head. “Then what did you do with the flowers?” She smiled slightly, “I gave them to the receptionist.” “What?” She laughed at my confusion. “I told the receptionist to give the flowers to whoever needed them, especially who hasn’t gotten any in a while.”‎ I kept silent for a moment. Not long after we continued our driving, I spoke again, “Did you leave your name?” To this she answered instantly, “No. Leaving flowers there for someone who will appreciate them makes me feel good, which is enough of a thank for me.”‎ Suddenly, still thinking about Mom’s deeds, I heard something burst loudly. It was our car that broke down! Nothing could be worse, because neither my mom nor I understood how to repair it, and we didn’t know where the garage was. It also seemed impossible to wait for any passer-by, since we had seen so few along the way.‎ 注意：‎ ‎1. 所续写的短文的词数应为150左右；‎ ‎2. 至少使用5个短文中标有下划线的关键词语；‎ ‎3. 续写部分分为两段，每段的开头语已为你写好；‎ ‎4. 续写完成后，请用下划线标出你所使用的关键词语。‎ Paragraph 1：‎ We were worrying about what could be done. _______________________________________‎ ‎_________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________‎ Paragraph 2：‎ As we drove along, a flower shop came into sight____________________________________‎ ‎__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________‎ 英语参考答案 阅读理解：1-3 DDB 4-7 ABDA 8-10AAD ‎ 七选五：11-15 EACGF ‎ 完形填空： 16-20DAADB 21-25CCDAC ‎ ‎26-30BDABD 31-35ABCCB 语法填空：36.leaving 37.attractions 38.what 39.third 40.extremely ‎ ‎41.a 42.glasses 43.changed 44.be organized 45.In 书面表达：‎ 应用文：‎ Dear Editor,‎ I’m Li Hua.I am writing to discuss the traffic problem near our school gate, which is very serious now.With so many parents coming to pick up their children, traffic jams are frequent near the school gate ,causing much inconvenience to us and passers-by.‎ I strongly recommend some effective measures be taken. First, we should encourage students to ride a bicycle or walk to school by themselves. It is also a good idea to allow junior student to leave school 10 minutes earlier than others. Besides, cars should not be allowed to park near the school gate.‎ I do hope my suggestions can be considered and the problem can disappear soon.‎ Yours,‎ Li Hua 读后续写：‎ We were worrying about what could be done. But after waiting in vain for a considerable time, Mom and I decided to walk back the road to the nursing home and seek help. God knows how far we had driven!When we arrived, the receptionist was surprised, but warmly helped us contact the garage. There, the old men who had received the flowers were excited to meet us, talking about how great that day was. It amazed me what random actions of kindness could mean to the people who received it. While we were laughing and talking merrily, the garage got our car repaired.‎ As we drove along, a flower shop came into sight on the road. I paced quickly into the flower shop, where a bunch of flowers glowing red in full bloom caught my eye. Having witnessed the effect of kindness, I decided to send Mom the sweet flowers. Soon, the heavenly scent filled the car again. Mom tried to conceal her excitement, but the glittering tears failed her. Through this trip, I discovered that, despite my occasional anger towards her, I actually felt proud of her. This ‎ was the trip of my life.‎
