A prisoner picked up 1,000 yuan in the course of building the road outside the prison. He handed it out without
hesitation. However, someone who was in charge of the prison said to him in contempt, "Stop cheating! With your
own money, play such a trick to bribe me; what you want to gain back is the reduced sentence; people of your sort
are not honest."
In total despair, the prisoner believed that no one in the world would trust him any more. So he escaped from
prison that night.
On his way to flight, he robbed money and values without restraint(无拘无束地). After robbing enough
money, he took a train bound for the border. The carriages were so crowded that he had to stand close to a water
closet. At this moment, a quite beautiful girl walked into the closet, and found that the latch was broken when she
closed the door. She stepped out and whispered to him, "Sir, could you guard the door for me?"
In a daze for a second, he, looking into the pure eyes of the girl, nodded his head. The girl went into the closet
with a blush; and he guarded the door tightly like a' loyal guard.
At that very moment, he changed his mind suddenly. At the next stop he got off the train, and went to give
himself up to the police at the train station.
Trust is the most precious thing in this world. It cannot be bought, or gained by lure or force. It comes deep
from one's soul, and lives in the clear spring of the soul. It can redeem(拯救) the soul and make the soul and make
the heart full of purity and confidence.

By the year 2050, a fifth of the world’s cities will experience unprecedented climate conditions and
environments that currently don't exist in any major cities, according to new research. A team of scientists at the
Crowther Lab in Switzerl produced the report, which described the climate for 520 major cities 30 years in the
future.
The results showed that 77 percent of the world’s cities will experience a surprising change in climate
conditions by 2050, and 22 percent of the 520 cities will see conditions that are not currently experienced by any
existing major cities.
In China in 2050, the climate of Xi’an, in Shanxi province, will be similar to that of current day Maseru, the
capital city of Lesotho in southern Africa, with the maximum temperature of the warmest month likely to increase
by 4.5 C. Chongqing in southwest China will resemble the climate of Swaziland capital Mbabane, as the warmest
temperature is predicted to rise by 5.1 C.
Scientists predict summers in Europe will get warmer by an average of 3.5 C and European winters will see
temperature rises of 4.7 C. London's climate will be more similar to Barcelona, and Madrid’s to Marrakech.
The Crowther Lab hopes the analysis will motivate decision-makers to take necessary steps to prevent or
address some of the climate impacts due to the threat of climate change. The report also found that cities in tropical
regions will experience smaller changes in average temperature but will be controlled by shifts in rainfall regimes.
This may lead to a noticeable increase in unexpected events, and severe droughts.
“Across all scientific fields, the greatest challenge in climate science is no longer the precise measurement of
climate change impacts, but inspiring people to picture its actual effects in order to motivate action,” said Tom
Crowther, senior scientist and founder of the Crowther Lab.
8. The underlined word in the first paragraph probably means .
A. New B. Similar C. Familiar D. Important
9. How did the scientists prove their result?
A. By comparison. B. By theory.
C. By experiment. D. By number.
10. What is the purpose of the lab?
A. To compare the climate change of the major cities of the world.
B. To inspire people to picture its actual effects in order to motivate action.
C. To inspire decision-makers to take necessary steps to prevent some of the climate impacts.
D. To show that 77 percent of the world's cities will experience a striking change in climate conditions.
11. What is the best title of the passage?
A. World Temperature B. Current Climate Change
C. Big Titles in the World D. Future Climate Change in Most Big Cities
D
Maybe you think the richer the happier. As the richest countries in the world, you’d expect that Qatar and
Japanese people would also be the happiest. Seeing as though they have the highest life expectancy (平均寿命).
But clearly wealth and good health do not guarantee happiness after both countries failed to make the top ten
most positive countries.
The survey of nearly 150, 000 people around the world found that seven of the world’s 10 countries with the
happiest attitudes are in Latin America.
Gallup asked about 1,000 people in each of 148 countries if they were well-rested, had been treated with
respect, smiled or laughed a lot, learned or did something interesting and felt feelings of enjoyment the previous
day.
In Panama and Paraguay, 85 percent of those surveyed said yes to all five, putting those countries at the top of
the list. They were followed closely by El Salvador, Venezuela, Trinidad and Tobago, Thailand. Guatemala, the
Philippines, Ecuador and Costa Rica.
The people least likely to report positive emotions lived in Singapore, the wealthy and orderly city-state that
ranks among the most developed in the world. Other wealthy countries also sat surprisingly low on the list.
Germany and France tied with the poor African state of Somaliland for 47th place.
Many of the seven countries which were most positive do poorly in traditional measures of well-being, like
Guatemala, a country torn by decades of civil war followed by waves of gang-driven criminality that give it one of
the highest murder rates in the world. “In Guatemala, it’s a culture of friendly people who are always smiling,” said
Luz Castillo, a 30-year-old surfing instructor. “Despite all the problems that we’re facing, we’re surrounded by
natural beauty that lets us get away from it all.”
The poll (民意测验) shows that wealthy nations can also be deeply unhappy ones. And poverty-stricken ones
are often full of positivity, or at least a close approximation of it.
12. Which of the following country is the happiest one according to the passage?
A. Qatar. B. Panama. C. Japan. D. Singapore.
13. The passage tells us decides people s happiness.
A. wealth B. good order C. health D. positive emotions
14. From the passage we can infer .
A. The richest countries are in Asia
B. People in poor countries are unhappy
C. The happiest countries have good social order
D. People in Guatemala face the difficulty positively because of its beautiful nature
15. What is the best title of the passage?
A. The World Countries B. The World Happiest Region
C. The World Happiness Index D. The Wealthy Countries in the World

back of your neck. You think to yourself: Is this person getting too close to me? The answer is yes. Everyone has a
sense of personal space.____16____
According to a new study, the size of the space is different for different people,____17____reported Los

the volunteers blinked. The more they blinked(眨眼),___18___

47. 阅读下面短文,根据所给情节进行续写,使之构成一个完整的故事。
Once in a kingdom, a man named Liam protested against(反对)the King. The King was so angry because he
didn't like anyone going against him so he ordered his soldiers to arrest(逮捕)and hang the man. Liam didn't show
any fear and said, "My Lord. I will gladly accept your punishment but please grant(允许)me one last wish. Please
give me some time. Before dying I just want to visit my home and see my children one last time."
The King refused his request, saying, "No. I can't allow it. There is no guarantee(担保)that once you leave you
will come back."
Just then a man from the crowd came forward and said, "My Lord, please arrest me instead of him as a
guarantee. If he doesn't come back on time, you can hang me instead of him."
The King was surprised because he had never seen a man who would offer his own life for someone else. He
believed that there was no real friendship in the world. The King asked him. "Why are you ready to take this
person's place?"
The man replied, "My Lord, Liam is my best friend and I have trust in him. He is a man who always keeps his
promise. I am sure that he will be back once he finishes meeting his family."
The King agreed and allowed Liam to leave for his home. He was given six hours in all. He would need one
hour to go and come back from his house, so he had at most five hours to meet his family. Liam left for his house.
He met his family. He still had enough time to reach the King's palace before the time of his hanging.
Liam wanted to come back to the hanging place as soon as possible, but on his way he fell from his horse and
got hurt. Because of this, he got delayed(耽搁).
