I was tired and hungry after a long day of work.
When I walked into the living-room, my 12-year-old son looked 31 at me and said, “I love you.” I didn't know what to say. 32 several seconds all I could do was to stand there and 33 down at him. My first thought was that he must need 34 with his homework or he was trying to 35 me for some news.
Finally I asked, “What was that all about ”
“Nothing ,” he said. “My teacher said we should 36 our parents that we love them and see what they say. It's a(n) 37.
The next day I called his teacher to find out more about this“experiment” and how the other parents had 38.
“Most of the fathers had the 39 reacting(反应) as you did ,” the teacher said. “When I first suggested we try this, I asked the children 40 they thought their parents would say.

What I'm trying to tell the children is that it's too 44 that we don't all express those feeling. A boy should be 45 to tell his dad he loves him.

If you are travelling from one of London's international airports to central London, don't take taxi unless you are very rich! The minimum(最小的) fare from Heathrow, the nearest airport to central London, is about $25. If you are travelling in a group of four people and each of you has a lot of luggage, you may feel that it would be worth paying for a taxi.
If you simply want to cross London from one railway station to another or from a station to your hotel, then a taxi may be a good idea. Although taxis may seem quite expensive, they make life a lot easier if you have a lot of luggage, or if you are not confident about finding your way around the Underground System. Here are some useful facts about using taxis:
Licensed(有许可证的) taxis are large, and usually black vehicles with a small white plate(牌照) on the back showing a license number and the words Hackney Carriages.
★ The best place to find a taxi is at a railway station. Follow the signs for taxi and you will find what is called a taxi rank (a place in the road where a taxi can stop). Another good place to find a taxi is near a large hotel.
★ If you are not at a station, you will have to stand in the street and wait for one to go past. Look for a taxi which has an orange light lit up over the driver's window— this means that it is not being used by anyone else.
★ When the taxi is quite close, raise your arm and wave the driver down. The taxi should stop for you.
★ When you pay, it is usual to give the driver a tip of at least 10%.
51. What does the author say about the taxi in London
A. It is hard to catch a taxi at the airport.
B. It is a good choice to cross London.
C. Its service is far from satisfactory.
D. Its fare is not very high.
52. What do the licensed taxis look like
A. They are small. D. They are all orange.
C. They have red plates. D. They have photos on the back.
53. Where can you find a taxi easily according to the author
A A bus stop. B. A small hotel.
C. A taxi rank near a railway station. D. A large shopping centre.
54. What should you take note of if you want to stop a taxi
A. Whether its light is on.
B. Whether the driver is waving.
C. Whether it is a white licensed taxi.
D. Whether the taxi stops at the right place.
55. If your taxi fare is $30, how much should you give the tip to the driver at least
A.$2. B.$3. C.$4. D.$5.

For eight years, American Alex Honnold dreamed about climbing El Capitan in Yosemite National Park without any safety equipment. But whenever Honnold went to the park and looked up at El Capitan, he became frightened.
That changed last Saturday. Honnold, a world-class rock climber, reached the top of the great rock wall in about four hours only using his hands and feet. He is the first person ever to climb the 914-meter-high granite(花岗岩) wall alone and without ropes or safety equipment to catch him if he falls.
“I was pretty much elated,” Honnold,31, told the Associated Press about reaching the top.I was probably the happiest I' ve ever been. It's something that I thought about for so long and dreamed about and worked so hard for.”
Honnold began making plans for his historic climb two years ago. Ho climbed El Capitan while wearing safety equipment countless times. He tried to remember every hole he had to hold and the positions of his body. He repeated the climb again and again until he felt sure enough to try the so-called“free solo”(无保护攀登) climb.
The most difficult part of the trip is about 700 meters off the ground. At that point, the very small holds in the rock are only big enough for a finger to fit. But Honnold said the climb was a mental suffering. “To walk up to the base of the climb without ropes or harnesses(系带), it just feels a little surprising. Getting over that side of it was the hardest part,” he said.
An observer, Daniel Duane, says Honnold's climb has pushed the limits in a sport that requires a high level of physical ability, risk-taking and mental strength.” This has never been done before... and it's hard to imagine anybody ever coming close to what he's done,” Duane said. “He is totally alone at the top of his game.”
56. According to the passage, Honnold's climb to El Capitan was .
A. easy and cheerful B. unbelievable and tiring
C. dangerous and hard D. successful and easy
57. What's the meaning of the underlined word“elated” in the third paragraph
A. Scared and worried. B. Commonly calm.
C. Very anxious and serious. D. Extremely happy and excited.
58. What do you know about Honnold
A. He isn't good at climbing.
B. He has been climbing for 31 years.
C. He made good preparations for his climb.
D. He was supported by his friends in climbing El Capitan.
59. According to the last paragraph, it can be inferred that .
A Honnold invented a new kind of sport
B. Daniel Duane thought highly of Honnold's climb
C. Honnold got lots of praise and criticism after getting to the top of El Capitan
D. Honnold was the second person to reach the top of El Capitan by using hands and feet
60. Which is the best title for the passage
A. Climber reaches the top of El Capitan without any safety equipment.
B. How to reach the top of El Capitan successfully and safely.
C. World-class rock climber challenges himself through climbing.
D. Climber challenges the top of El Capitan mentally and physically.
C
Happiness is for everyone. You don't need to care about those people who have beautiful houses with large gardens and swimming pools or those who have nice cars and a lot of money and so on. Why Because those who have big houses may often feel lonely and those who have cars may want to walk on the country roads in their free time.
In fact, happiness is always around you if you put your heart into it. When you are in trouble at school, your friends will help you; when you study hard at your lessons, your parents are always taking care of your life and your health; when you get success, your friends will say congratulations to you; when you do something wrong, people around you will help you to correct it. And when you do something good to others, you will feel happy, too. All these are your happiness. If you notice them, you can see that happiness is always around you.
True happiness is not the same as money. It is a feeling of your heart. When you are poor, you can also say you are very happy, because you have something else that can't be bought with money. When you meet with difficulties, you can say loudly you are very happy, because you have more chances to challenge yourself. So you can not always say you are poor and you have bad luck.
As the saying goes, “Life is like a revolving(旋转的) door. When it closes, it also opens.” If you take every chance you get, you can be a happy and lucky person.
61. Happiness is for .
A. those who have large and beautiful houses B. those who have cars
C. those who have a lot of money D. all people
62. When you do something wrong, .
A. you may correct it
B. you will have no chance to challenge yourself
C. anybody will laugh at you
D. you will be happy
63. Which is TRUE according to the passage
A. When you get success, your friends will be very proud of you.
B. You can get help from others when you make mistakes.
C. You can still be a happy person even if you have little money.
D. All the above.
64. Why do we say“Happiness is not the same as money” Because .
A. money always brings happiness
B. money doesn't always bring happiness
C. everything can be bought with money
D. only rich people have happiness
65. Which is the best title of the passage
A. Do Something Good to Others
B. Happy and Lucky
C. What is True Happiness
D. Life and Success

第二卷：非选择题 (35分)
第一节：阅读表达 (每小题2分，满分10分)
Many of us do not like the things we see around us. For example, the bad habits of some people, the rude manners and even the air pollution. If you do not want the things you see around you, don't just watch and hope it will change. Only lazy people might say that is the way things have been working and that is the way they are going to continually work. In fact, things won't change if you don't do something to change them, so you should change yourselves first.
Maybe some people want to change the whole country That is a far too enormous project.I think you can start by changing the small things around you.
Your habit should be the first thing to change. Change what you think about and change what you talk about. Change the things that get your attention before you plan to change a country.
Can you remember how difficult it was for you to break a habit that you desired to break some years ago Do you remember the habits that you are still struggling to break If so, then you must fall in with the view that things are not just going to change by your magic thought.
As far as I am concerned, the best way I have changed people around me is that I changed myself. People are watching you. Some of them do not expect you to change, so your change is going to be like a miracle to them and will influence them. When you change, they will change. Just change yourself and see how many people will tell you later that you were the one who changed them. That is one simple way young people can change their surroundings.
66. What is the best title for the passage ( No more than 10 words.)
67. Why should people change themselves first ( No more than 15 words.)
68. Please explain the underlined phrase“fall in with” in English. ( No more than 5 words.)
