17、ke much of a restaurant, but once the pleasant smells of kabob（烤肉串）hit the senses, you are incapable of calling it anything less. Owned by a local couple, this Persian restaurant has an inviting, homelike atmosphere that many restaurants lack. The space is small with only a few dining tables and nea

18、rly no decoration, but the environment is truly charming. Lying in a hardly noticeable street corner, the restaurant still attracts all customers, especially those experienced in the delights of Middle Eastern cooking. A common sight is that of old Persian men sitting in the corner talking loudly ab

19、out world topics, watching news events on TV, drinking a black tea known as Persian chai, an reading local Persian newspapers all the while trying to finish off their plates piled with food. The variety of food at the restaurant is limited, but the amount of each dish is fairly large. Most of the me

20、als can serve two people and are under $10, so not only is it affordable but practical as well. The food, especially appeals to health-conscious eaters because each dish is very healthy, made with limited fat and oil and served straight off the grill （烤肉架）. The main dish that the restaurant is popul

21、ar for is its kabobs, which are different style of grilled meat. One delicious and extremely healthy dish is the Joojeh Kabob, which is made of grille chicken pieces served with either rice or bread. Another great kabob is the Cbelo Kabob, kabob consisting of grilled beef. Although the restaurant is

22、 small, the atmosphere and the food is delicious. It is a place that should not be overlooked.36When first entering the restaurant, one can find that it _. Ais splendidly decorated Bhas pleasant smells of kabobs Cis crowded with dining tables Dlooks like a common restaurant 37What activity is also m

23、entioned apart from dining in the restaurant? AWatching news events on TV. BDrinking a kind of black coffee. CReading local English newspapers. DDiscussing world topics in low voices. 38The food of the restaurant _. Ais served in small amounts Bis rather expensiveCis rich in variety Dis very healthy

24、 39What is the dish Joojeh Kabob mainly made of? ARice BChicken CBread DBeef 40It can be inferred from the passage that the restaurant _. Aoccupies a large space Bowns a favorable location Cis popular for its special food Dhas a quiet environment insideB“Drink your milk. Its good for you!” Youve pro

25、bably heard that many times, and its true. Milk contains calcium, which is a necessary nutrient for keeping bones and teeth healthy and strong. The U.S. government even requires milk as part of the National School Lunch Program, saying that students should drink one cup of fat-free or low-fat milk a

26、t each meal.Last Thursday, however, a group of doctors asked the government to remove milk from the lunch program. The Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine （PCRM） says, “Milk is high in sugar, high in fat and high in animal protein, all of which have negative effects on health.” “One of the

27、 only reasons people talk about dairy, or promote it, is that it is going to help build strong bones.” says Dr. Neal Barnard, president of the PCRM. There are better and healthier ways to get calcium such as eating beans, broccoli, cereals and tofu. Orange juice and soymilk that have calcium added t

28、o them also supply the nutrient.Of course, calcium is important for healthy bones and teeth, but your genes, how much vitamin D you take in and getting an hours worth of exercise every day all play a part.Some nutritionists disagree with the idea that milk isnt important. Keri Gans, a dietitian, say

29、s, “I think its irresponsible to take away this beverage that children enjoy, especially among those who are unable to meet their nutrient needs for the day, and remove it from the lunch line.”The U.S. government is studying the request of the PCRM, but a decision may be a long way off. Meanwhile, M

30、arion Nestle, a professor at New York University, puts it best: “Milk has nutrients. Other foods have the same nutrients. Its just a food. Like other foods, too much might be a problem.”41Why does the US government ask students to drink one cup of milk at lunch time?AThey have been told many times.B

31、They have taken the PCRMs advice.CFat-free or low-fat milk is less expensive.DMilk helps build students strong bones.42Which of the following opinions does the PCRM support?AMilk is harmful to students health.BStudents should drink more milk each day.COrange juice is higher in calcium than milk.DMil

32、k is the best way to get calcium.43The underlined word “beverage” in Paragraph 4 most probably means _.Agene Bidea CMilk DLunch44What can we learn from Marion Nestles words?AMilk has more nutrients than other food.BMilk is just a kind of common food.COther food also contains much calcium.DToo much n

33、utrient lies in other food.45What does the above text mainly talk about?AThe best way to get the most calcium.BThe connection between milk and health.CDifferent opinion about the important of milk.DWhether to take milk off the school-lunch menu.CThat cold January night, I was growing sick of my life

34、 in San Francisco. There I was, walking home at one in the morning after a tiring practice at the theatre. With opening night only a week ago, I was still learning my lines. I was having trouble dealing with my part-time job at the bank and my acting at night at the same time. As I walked, I thought

35、 seriously about giving up both acting and San Francisco. City life had become too much for me.As I walked down empty streets under tall buildings, I felt very small and cold. I began running, both to keep warm and to keep away from any possible robbers （搶劫犯）. Very few people were still out except a

36、 few sad-looking homeless people under blankets.About a block from my apartment （公寓房間）, I heard a sound behind me. I turned quickly, half expecting to see someone with a knife or a gun. The street was empty. All I saw was a shining streetlight. Still, the noise had made me nervous, so I started to r

37、un faster. Not until I reached my apartment building and unlocked the door did I realize what the noise had been. It had been my wallet falling to the sidewalk.Suddenly I wasnt cold or tired anymore. I ran out of the door and back to where Id heard the noise. Although I searched the sidewalk anxious

38、ly for fifteen minutes, my wallet was nowhere to be found.Just as I was about to give up the search, I heard the garbage truck （垃圾車） pull up to the sidewalk next to me. When a voice called from the inside, “Alisa Camacho?” I thought I was dreaming. How could this man know my name? The door opened, a

39、nd out jumped a small red-haired man with an amused look in his eye. “Is this what youre looking for?” he asked, holding up a small square shape.It was nearly 3 A.M. by the time I got into bed. I wouldnt get much sleep that night, but I had gotten my wallet back. I also had gotten back some enjoymen

40、t of city life. I realized that the city couldnt be a bad place as long as people were welling to help each other.46How did the write feel when she was walking home after work?ACold and sick. BFortunate and helpful. CSatisfied and cheerful. DDisappointed and helpless.47From the first paragraph, we l

41、earn that the write was busy _.Asolving her problem at the bank Btaking part in various city activitiesClearning acting in a n evening school Dpreparing for the first night show48On her way home the writer _.Alost her wallet unknowinglyBwas stopped by a garbage truck driverCwas robbed of her wallet

42、by an armed manDfound some homeless people following her49In the fifth paragraph, why did the writer say she was dreaming?ASomeone offered to take her back home.BA red-haired man came to see her.CShe heard someone call her name.DHer wallet was found in a garbage truck.50From the text, we can infer t

43、hat the writer _.Awould stop working at night Bwould stay on in San FranciscoCwould make friends with cleaners Dwould give up her job at the bankDIn modern society there is a great deal of argument about competition. Some value it highly, believing that it is responsible for social progress and pros

44、perity. Others say that competition is bad; that it sets one person against another; that it leads to unfriendly relationship between people.I have taught many children who held the belief that their self-worth relied （依賴） on how well they performed at tennis and other skills. For them, playing well

45、 and winning are often life-and-death affairs. In their single-minded pursuit （追求） of success, the development of many other human qualities is sadly forgotten.However, while some seem to be lost in the desire to succeed, others take an opposite attitude. In a culture which values only the winner an

46、d pays no attention to the ordinary players, they strongly blame competition. Among the most vocal are youngsters who have suffered under competitive pressures from their parents or society. Teaching these young people, I often observe in them a desire to fail. They seem to seek failure by not tryin

47、g to win or achieve success. By not trying, they always have an excuse: “I may have lost, but it doesn't matter because I really didn't try.” What is not usually admitted by themselves is the belief that if they had really tried and lost, that would mean a lot. Such a loss would be a measure

48、 of their worth. Clearly, this belief is the same as that of the true competitors who try to prove themselves. Both are based on the mistaken belief that one's self-respect relies on how well one performs in comparison with others. Both are afraid of not being valued. Only as this basic and ofte

49、n troublesome fear begins to dissolve（緩解）can we discover a new meaning in competition.51What does this passage mainly talk about?ACompetition helps to set up self-respect. BOpinions about competition are different among people. CCompetition is harmful to personal quality development. DFailures are n

50、ecessary experiences in competition. 52Why do some people favor competition according to the passage? AIt pushes society forward. BIt builds up a sense of duty. CIt improves personal abilities. DIt encourages individual efforts. 53The underlined phrase “the most vocal” in Paragraph 3 means _. Athose

51、 who try their best to winBthose who value competition most highlyCthose who are against competition most stronglyDthose who rely on others most for success54What is the similar belief of the true competitors and those with a “desire to fail”? AOne's worth lies in his performance compared with o

52、thers.BOne's success in competition needs great efforts.COne's achievement is determined by his particular skills.DOne's success is based on how hard he has tried.55Which point of view may the author agree to?AEvery effort should be paid back.BCompetition should be encouraged.CWinning sh

53、ould be a life-and-death matter.DFear of failure should be removed in competition. 第卷 非選擇題（共35分）注意事項：1.請用黑色墨水的鋼筆或簽字筆將答案寫在答題卷上。2.本卷共6小題，滿分35分。第三部分 寫作（共兩節(jié)，滿分35分）第一節(jié) 閱讀表達（共5小題；每小題2分，滿分10分）閱讀短文，按照題目要求用英語回答問題。Big storms.
