A
I was driving home the other day on a sunny afternoon. I had a smile on my face as I sang along to the songs on the radio. It was such a beautiful day that I felt full of happiness. My good mood ended, however, when the radio station took a news break between songs. Then suddenly I found myself listening to yet another story of a rich famous man who had broken the law. I shook my head as I came to a red traffic light.
As I pulled to a stop I noticed four leather-jacketed bikers. They were standing in the middle of the road with two on either side of the light. They looked rough
1
and dangerous, but as I got closer I noticed each one was holding their helmet in their hands. I rolled down my window as one approached my car. \"We are the Brother’s of the Wheel\e said. \"We are collecting money for a Christmas Toy Drive for needy children.\" As I pulled a dollar out of my wallet I looked past his beard and into his eyes. They shined with a goodness and kindness that came right from his soul. I dropped the money in his helmet and waved to the other bikers as I drove off. My good mood had returned. My faith in mankind had been bolstered. And I had to remember again never to judge people by their appearance.
Our society often judges books by their covers but God reads what is written in our hearts and souls. Perhaps one day we will all learn to see the world through the same eyes. Perhaps one day we will realize that looks matter little and actions matter much.

The movies just wouldn’t be the same without the warm buttery taste of popcorn. Amazingly, this delicious treat started its life as a corn kernel (玉米粒)—
3
and not from just any corn. Popcorn is a type of sweet corn that was originally grown in Mexico and spread to China, India and elsewhere. It is the only kind of corn that will pop. Today, most of the world’s popcorn is grown in the United States.
Every popcorn kernel contains a tiny drop of water，surrounded by soft starch (淀粉). When the popcorn is heated, the water turns into steam. This puts pressure on the surrounding hard kernel, forcing it to explode. The soft starch increases about 40 times in size as the corn kernel turns itself inside out.
In the 1500s popcorn was an important food source for the Aztec Indians of central and southern Mexico. But it wasn’t only food. It was also used in ceremonies or in headdresses and necklaces. By the time the Europeans arrived in America, popcorn had spread through most of the American Indians.
Some early American settlers ate popcorn with cream and sugar for breakfast. But it wasn’t until the late 1800s that popcorn became popular. The demand for popcorn increased and farmers began farming popcorn. The first mobile popping machine was invented in 1885, and popcorn was sold by street sellers much like hot dogs that are sold today.
During the Great Depression of the 1930s, the popcorn business still thrived as people could still afford it. Then in the 1950s television arrived and popcorn consumption decreased. People stayed home and stopped going to the theater. But the link between movies and popcorn had already existed. Soon people
4
began making popcorn at home on the stove and, later，microwave popcorn was introduced.
Today the movies have regained popularity and popcorn has once again become the favorite.
25. Popcorn was first planted in________.
A. China B. America C. India D. Mexico
26. Why does the corn kernel pop when heated?
A. Because it is covered with soft starch. B. Because the pressure inside is too big.
C. Because the starch becomes bigger in size. D. Because there is water inside the kernel.
27. We can know from the passage that________.
A. popcorn began to be farmed in the late 1800s
B. popcorn was only a kind of food in the 1500s
C. hot dogs used to be sold by street sellers
5
D. people stopped going to the movies without popcorn
28. The underlined word “thrived” in the fifth paragraph probably means“________”.
A. started to be popular B. was seriously affected
C. suffered a lot D. developed very well
C
Statuses are wonderful human inventions that enable us to get along with one another and to determine where we \"fit\" in society. In our everyday life whenever we meet people, we always try to judge them in terms of their statuses. For example, we must judge whether the person in the library is a reader or a librarian, whether the telephone caller is a friend or a salesman and so on.
Our statuses often vary with the people we meet, and change through life. Most of us can, at very high speed, assume(表现出) the different statuses that various situations require. Much of social communication consists of recognizing and selecting among proper statuses and allowing other people to assume their statuses in relation to us. This means that we fit our actions to those of other people, based on a constant mental process of assessment and understanding. Although some of us find the task more difficult than others, most of us perform it rather easily.
6
A status has been compared to ready-made clothes. Within certain limits the buyer can choose style and material. But an American is not free to choose the clothes of a Chinese peasant or that of a Hindu prince. We must choose from among the clothing presented by our society.
Furthermore, our choice is limited to a size that will fit, as well as by our wallet. Having made a choice within these limits, we can have certain changes made. But apart from small adjustments, we tend to be limited to what the stores have on their shelves. Statuses too come ready-made, and the range of choice among them is limited.
29. According to the writer, people often assume different statuses______.
A. in order to distinguish themselves from others
B. in order to better recognize other people
C. as their mental processes change
D. as the situation changes
30. In the last sentence of the second paragraph, “it”refers to “___”
A. constant mental process
B. selecting one’s own statuses
7
C. recognition of other people’s statuses
D. fitting our actions to those of other properly
31. What can be the best title for this text?
A. Proper Relations.
B. Limited Choices.
C. Judgment of Statuses.
D. Comparison of Clothes.

In the winter months the temperature in most of Canada usually stays below 0℃. However, in some parts of Canada, such as southern British Columbia, the temperature rarely goes below 0℃. In most areas where people live, snow will be on the ground from mid-December to mid- March. Though Canada’s winter may be much colder and longer than you are used to, it can be very enjoyable. For many Canadians, being active in winter is an important part of enjoying life. There are many outdoor winter activities, including skiing, ice fishing, walking, and skating. Joining in one of these activities may help you appreciate winter and enjoy your time outside in the snow.

Dressing for winter
During winter in Canada, you will need warm clothing. If possible, arrive with these items or be prepared to buy them soon after your arrival. You will need:
＊warm waterproof boots ＊a scarf for your neck
＊a hat that covers your ears ＊gloves for your hands

＊a warm waterproof coat ＊waterproof hats
＊an umbrella ＊rain boots or snow boots
Learn more about weather and seasons across Canada. You can also contact Related Links, for example, an immigrant-serving organization in the community where you live for more information about dressing for winter.

根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Sometimes willpower is a lot like the television remote control—hard to find just when you want it most. 36 But there are ways to increase your willpower.
* Don't try to change your economic situation, win a promotion and lose weight all on the same morning. Set one clear, specific goal and make a realistic plan to achieve it.Extra willpower sometimes requires extra energy, so don't spread yourself too thin, 37
* Whatever your goal is, don't expect to achieve it overnight, 38 If you are trying to kick a coffee habit, start by replacing your morning cup of coffee with a glass of water, instead of promising never to drink coffee again. Congratulate yourself on the small achievements. These success help your willpower grow.
* 39 Ask friends, family or colleagues for assistance and tell them exactly how they can help. If your credit card bills have risen, for instance, let friends know that you are cutting back on expenses. Suggest having a common dinner instead of meeting at an expensive restaurant. Find a support group or organization related to your goal and attend their meetings. You can get valuable advice,
11
understanding and information.
* If possible, change your environment to encourage positive behavior. Want to get in shape? Keep an extra set of workout clothes in your office as a reminder to stop by the gym on the way home. Quitting smoking? 40
A.Real success takes time.
B.Focus on one goal at a time.
C.Change your environment to change your life.
D.Improve your willpower by a support network.

For a long time I saw happiness as a huge banner (旗帜)across the finish line of a long race. I felt that only when I 41 certain things could I finally be happy in my life. Most of the time I felt like a tortoise believing that being slow and 42 would win the race. At other times I would 43 like a rabbit trying different side roads at a dangerous 44 hoping to reach that banner a little faster. 45 , I began to see that no matter how long I raced towards it, the banner was never any 46 I finally decided one day to 47 and take a break. It was then that I saw my 48 sitting beside me.
It had been with me as I 49 hard to support my family, as I played with my children and heard their 50 and even when I was 51 with my wife at my side looking after me. It had been with me as I raced towards that stupid banner. I just didn’t have the 52 to see it.
There is an old Chinese proverb that says, “Tension (紧张) is what you think you should be. 53 is who you are” Perhaps we all should stop our race towards the 54 life we think we should have and 55 the life we have now. Happiness will never be found under some banner far away. It will be found 56 your own heart, soul and mind. It will be found when you 57 that others love you just as you do.
Don’t be a tortoise or a rabbit when it comes to your happiness. Be a playful puppy and carry your stick of 58 with you everywhere you go. 59 yourself out of the race and realize that when it comes to love and happiness you are 60 there.

Dear Jack，

I am pleasing to hear from you and know that you had a greatly time working part-time in a fast-food restaurant. Now I would like to share your working experiences with you during the past summer.
In the beginning of the summer vacation, I was hired as shopping guide in a big supermarket. I stood for ten hours a day and smiled to everyone I have met. Sometimes I was laughed at, and most of the time, I was praised for my wonderful works by many people. Half a month passed quickly after I knew it, and I learned how to deal with different people.
Above all, I have learned that smile is the key to solve any problem．
Best wishes．
Yours,
Li Ming

This quotation from Jonathan Lockwood Huie tells us that real friends can give us strength and hope when we are in trouble and real friends cam benefit from each other. We need such friends who can point out our mistakes directly and who have the same life goals as us.
19
Once I failed again and again in my math and lost interest in it, it was my best friend who encouraged me not to give up and offered help in time. With his kind and selfless help, I gradually caught up with others.
So I say we need friends and what we most need is a friend that can enrich our life.
