He found an inn and wanted to stay there for the night. After he had gone to his room, the owner said to his wife, “Look at his bag, dear. Im sure there are lots of valuable things in it. I want to steal it when he is asleep.”“No, no,” said the woman. “He must look for his bag tomorrow morning. Then hell take you before the judge.” They thought and at last the woman had an idea. “We have forgetful grass,” said the woman, “Why not put some into his food? If he has the food, he will forget to take his bag away.” “How clever you are!” said the owner, “Dont forget it when you prepare supper for him.”The old man had the food with the forgetful grass and went to bed. The next morning, when the owner got up, he found the door was open and the old man had left with his bag. He woke his wife up and said angrily, “What a fool! Your forgetful grass isnt useful at all.”“No, no,” said the woman. “I dont think so. He must forget something.”“Oh, Ive remembered!” The owner cried out suddenly, “He forgot”21. The old man came to the inn _.A.in the morning B.in the afternoon C.in the evening D.at night22. The owner and his wife wanted to _.A. get the mans bag B. steal the mans moneyC. make the man pay them more D. hide the mans bag23. The owner and his wife put the forgetful grass into the food because _.A. the old man always forgot somethingB. they wanted to make the food betterC. they hoped the old man would leave the bag in the innD. they wanted to know if the grass was useful24. According to the passage the old man forgot _.A.to take his bag away B.to tell the owner when he leftC.to close the door when he went to sleep D.to pay them the inn money BTodays children are the “result” of the modern society. Our parents have jobs that keep them busy almost all day long. They only have a free day in a week. This doesnt allow them to keep an eye on their children. On the other hand, the modern society gives more freedom to the children than they could “handle”. As a child, you dont know how to grow up by yourself until you reach a certain age. That is why you need school and parents to be by your side all the time. If you dont have either of them you may make a lot of mistakes. The social system of the modern society is very lenient especially with the children. Most of the children today are rebels (判逆者). They are rude. They are given too much freedom by their families. This is their parents mistake. They ought to know that the freedom they give to their children is misunderstood. For example it is a bad thing for a 17 year old child to go out in the evening on weekends. Parents are also guilty of the way their children show up in the street or at school. The same guilt belongs to the teaching system as well. Pupils shouldnt be allowed to dress like they were on a fashion presentation at school. Another important fact we can think of regarding the freedom of children is their free will of spending money. Parents shouldnt allow their children to spend money on whatever they want. I think children are given too much freedom not only by their parents, but also by the society. The latter is more to be blamed!25. The writer implies that parents busy lifestyle_.A. makes their children become independentB. may lead to a tense parent child relationshipC.is harmful to their childrens healthD.is likely to create a troubled generation26.What does the underlined word “l(fā)enient” (in Para 2) mean?A. Not responsible B. Not strict. C. Unkind. D. Unfair.27. It seems that the writer agrees that students _A. should stay at home on weekends B. can wear trendy clothes at schoolC. had better wear school uniform at school D. can be allowed to go out in the evenings28.According to the writer, which of the following takes the primary responsibility for childrens problems?A. The social environment. B. The educational system. C. Each family. D. The school.CWanted, Someone for a KissWere looking for producers to join us in the second of London 100 FM.

All of these things of the modern world make life entertaining and enjoyable. But our 21st-century lifestyle is also loud and, if we dont take notice, it can have an effect on our hearing.Most teenagers dont think about hearing loss. But if you experience any of the following symptoms, you may already be hearing damaged: you make efforts to hear normal talk, you have to turn up the TV or radio so high that others complain, you watch other peoples expressions to understand what they are saying, you ask people to repeat themselves, you misunderstand what people are saying or you hear ringing in your ears.IPods and other MP3 players are as common as the clothes you wear, and just as fashionable. But if you turn up an iPod to more than 60 percent of its maximum volume, and listen to music for more than an hour, you are asking for trouble. And, it does not matter if the music you play is classical, rock or heavy metal.Some researchers find that young people who break the so-called 60-percent/60-minute rule in listening to iPods are at the risk of suffering hearing loss.Why is an iPod dangerous? With ear buds placed directly in the ear canal and high-volume music played over a long period of time, its like working in a loud factory all day, being a maintenance person under a jet airplane or using a jackhammer (手提鉆) on a building site.Similarly, iPod music can cause a short time or permanent hearing damage. A loud iPod can cause a ruptured (破裂的) eardrum and, over time, may cause permanent damage to the tiny hairs in the inner ear. If these tiny hairs are damaged, they cannot effectively send sounds to the auditory nerves (聽(tīng)覺(jué)神經(jīng)) that connect to the brain. If this happens, hearing loss becomes permanent.33. Which of the following shows that you are suffering hearing loss?A. You are interested to listen to others talking.B. You have to read others expressions to understand them.C. You can only understand others over the phone.D. You always think you hear the ringing of the phone.34. Which of the following is TRUE when you listen to music?A. Listen at least an hour every time.B. Turn up the volume to the highest level.C. Keep the sound lower than 60% of its highest volume.D. Choose classical, rock or heavy metal music.35. What is the correct order of causing permanent hearing loss?a. The eardrum is broken.b. The auditory nerves cannot receive sounds.c. Tiny hairs are damaged.d. Ear buds are placed directly in the ear canal.e. High-volume music is played over a long time.A. d-a-c-b-e B. e-c-a-b-d C. b-c-a-d-e D. d-e-a-c-b第二節(jié)：根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容，從短文后的選項(xiàng)中選出能填入空白處的最佳選項(xiàng)。選項(xiàng)中有兩項(xiàng)為多余選項(xiàng)。（共5小題；每小題2分，滿(mǎn)分10分）Many of us deal with the rush every morning in preparation for work or school, but it doesnt have to be this way.

But they thought 41 My complaints, even self-justified shouting, were always landing on 42 ears. Very often a whole hours scolding would end with their 43 into tears. I felt very frustrated. I realized I needed to 44 my method of “mothering”. One day when they were at school, I spent some time 45 their rooms. On their desks, in plain 46 , I left the cards: Dear Bill (the other card was 47 to Sarah), your room was messy this morning and Im sure you like it clean. Love, the Room Fairy. 48 arriving back, the children were 49 excited to receive the little note from the Room Fairy. The next day, their rooms were fairly tidy. Sure enough, there was another note from the Room Fairy 50 for them, thanking them for their nice “gift” of a clean room and 51 asking them to play a certain violin 52 Each day, thank-you notes would be written differently to keep the ideas 53 . Sometimes the Room Fairy would propose a little 54 : If you can finish your homework and 55 your lessons before dinner, Id like to watch a particular television program with you tonight. Sometimes some colored markers or other little items would be left in 56 of well done jobs the day 57 . 58 I cant remember how long “the Room Fairy” continued leaving her love notes. When they were age appropriate, we used various versions of Post-Its (貼條). The bathroom mirror became the 59centre of our home. Appointments, notices about visiting relatives, lesson schedules, and changes in plans could be posted. We all benefited from and 60 the idea of sharing reminders and daily details of life through notes. I believe the true advantage of the Room Fairy notes survives in our frequent and enjoyable communication.41.A. differentlyB. gratefullyC. doubtfullyD. otherwise42.A.sideB. deafC. neitherD. either43.A.cryingB. breakingC. burstingD. bumping44.A.adjustB. adoptC. accessD. addict45.A.clearingB. tidyingC. emptyingD. searching46.A.distanceB. wordsC. speechD. sight47.A.sentB. readC. deliveredD. addressed48.A.AsB.
