I am wearing a small red ribbon this morning to remind myself and others around me that today is World AIDS Day. The red ribbon, an international symbol of AIDS awareness, is gaining increasing public recognition as more Chinese, from top leaders to movie stars, wear it today. Gone were the days when the topic of HIV/AIDS was a public and media taboo(禁忌). Over the past few years, we have watched, read and heard many stories from doctors, volunteers and public health officials at the forefront of HIV/AIDS prevention and treatment. Quite a few people with HIV/AIDS have come forward to share their experiences on TV or in the media. The local and central governments have become more forthcoming (be helpful) with their new prevention and treatment programmes, and financial input. The latter rose from less than 1 million yuan (US$ 121,000) in 1986 to a pledge of 800 million yuan (US$98.8 million) in the year of 2006. The change from silence to public and media campaigns with official promises has been remarkable, especially since China battled through the SARS crisis. But have we got a full grip on HIV/AIDS? What do we know about the extent of HIV/AIDS in China? The figures, ranging from confirmed cases to estimates, remain debated. After all, no more than a year has passed since the policy of free medical tests was made public. Unknown numbers from the high-risk groups: drug addicts and people working in sex- related places as well as farmers who once sold blood could still be reluctant to come forward. 69. What does the red ribbon stand for? A. AIDS B. World AIDS Day C. AIDS awareness D. AIDS prevention and treatment 70. Which of the following is Not true according to the text? A. The topic of HIV/AIDS was a public and media taboo in the past. B. The topic of HIV/AIDS is now still a public and media taboo. C. Now a lot of people with HIV/AIDS have come forward to share their experiences on TV. D. The writer wears a small red ribbon because today is World AIDS Day. 71. In paragraph 5 “the latter” refers to ____________________. A. financial input B. new prevention programmes C. new treatment programmes D. the central governments 72. We can learn from the text that high-risk groups of HIV/AIDS in China include the following EXCEPT __________________. A. drug addicts B. people working in sex-related place C. farmer who once sold blood D. people getting close to those affected with HIV/AIDS |
While waiting to pick up a friend at the airport in Portland, Oregon, I had an experience which occurred merely two feet away from me. Trying to locate my friend among the passengers coming through the jet way, I noticed a man walking toward me carrying two light bags. He stopped right next to me to greet his family. First he kissed his three children one by one and said, “It’s nice to see you. I missed you so much!” Then he hugged his wife, “I’ve saved the best for last!” giving her the longest, most passionate kiss I ever remember seeing. They stared at each other’s eyes, smiling at one another, while holding both hands. For an instant they reminded me of newlyweds(新婚夫妇), but I knew by the age of their kids that they couldn’t possibly be. Full of admiration, I asked, “Wow! How long have you two been married?” “Being together for fourteen years total, married twelve of those.” He replied, without breaking his gaze from his lovely wife’s face. “Well, then, how long have you been away?” I asked. “Two whole days!” “Two days?” I was astonished. By the intensity (热烈) of the greeting, I had assumed he’d been gone for at least several weeks --- if not months. I knew my expression betrayed me, so I turned away my eyes and said quietly, “I hope my marriage is still that passionate after so long!” The man suddenly stopped smiling and looked me straight in the eye. With forcefulness he told me something that left me a different person. “Don’t hope, friend…decide!” Then he smiled again, shook my hand and said, “God bless!” With that, he and his family turned and walked away together. I was still watching that man and his special family walk just out of sight when my friend came up to me and asked, “What are you looking at?” Without hesitation, and with a curious sense of certainty, I replied, “My future!” 77. The best title of the passage may be __________. A. Long Loving Hugs B. My Future C. Don’t Hope. Decide D. Love Is Everywhere 78. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage? A. The man replied to the author, with his eyes still fixed on his wife’s face. B. After being away for several weeks, the man missed his family very much. C. It was fourteen years since the couple had got married. D. Their three kids reminded the author of newlyweds. 79. By saying “my expression betrayed me” (in Paragraph 4), the author means that __________. A. he failed to express his ideas to the man B. the man sensed his real feelings from his expression C. he didn’t believe in his expression any more D. his expression was not faithful to him 80. From the passage, we can infer that __________. A. the experience may be easily forgotten by the author B. the author will live a passionate life from now on C. the author will be away from his family and hug them passionately upon his return D. Americans prefer to save the best for last |

I once read this sentence: “To make this world a happy place to live, you’d better 43 yourself and your heart , instead of the whole world.” I was shocked. It made me think about life 44 . There are so many things around us that 45 our will. We can’t force life 46 our wishes. The earth won’t stop turning no matter whether we 47 it or not. What we can do is just to make ourselves 48 the world. I think we should learn to accept 49 life gives us, no matter whether it’s the spring sunlight or the winter snowfall, and try to be happy. Deeply moved by the pop song Grandmother (by Jay Chou), I always try to 50 every pleasant thing in my life, but now I see I don’t catch most of the pleasant moments. It is more 51 that they slip by and leave you feeling 52 . I realize that I’m not just living 53 myself and that there are the others around me I should think of .They all pay attention to my growing up, even if it’s just a little progress.

第三部分阅读(共两节,满分40分) 第一节阅读理解(共15小题;每小题2分,满分30分) 阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C和D项中,选出最佳答案。 We’ve talked about snails (蜗牛) and their slow move. But much of the time snails don’t move at all. They are in their shells (壳) —sleeping. Hot sun will dry out a snail’s body. So at the least sign of hot sun, a snail draws its body into his shell. A snail will die in a heavy rain. So when it rains, a snail does the same thing, too. A snail can sleep for as long as it needs to. It spends all the winter months in its shell, asleep. In the spring the snail wakes up. Its body, about three inches long, comes out from the shell. When hungry, the snail looks for food. Its eyes, at the end of the top feelers (触角), are very weak. But its sense (感觉) of smell is very strong. It helps the snail to find food and the new greens. A snail’s mouth is no bigger than the point of a pin (大头针). Yet it has 256,000 teeth! The teeth are very small, and you can’t see them. If you put a snail in a hard paper box, it will eat its way out! And if a snail wears out its teeth, it will grow new ones. 51. A snail _________. A. moves more slowly at night B. has thousands of feet C. doesn’t move at all D. sleeps much of the time 52. In the sentence “A snail draws its body into its shell”, the word “draw” means _____. A. to make with a pencil B. to push C. to pul D. to move away 53. From the story, we know _________. A. a snail’s shell is very thin B. a snail can’t see well C. a snail’s nose is quite short D. a snail’s body changes in different seasons 54. A snail goes to sleep when _____. A. it feels hungry B. it is put into a paper box C. spring is coming D. it rains heavily 55. Which of the following is wrong? A. In winter the snail doesn’t eat or move. B. A snail doesn’t like living under the sun. C. The snail’s teeth can’t be worn out. D. The snail’s nose helps to find food. |
