III.Reading comprehension
On Christmas Eve I hung up my stocking along with my sisters. The next morning my sisters and I ?36? up at six. Then we raced downstairs to the fireplace. And there they were, the gifts, all ?37? of wonderful things, mixed-up piles of ?38?. Only my stocking was empty; it hung ?39?; not a thing in it; and under and around it ― ?40?. My sisters had knelt down, each by her ?41? of gifts; they were crying with ?42?, until they looked up and saw me ?43? there looking so miserable. They came over to me and ?44? my stocking: nothing. I don’t remember whether I cried at that ?45?, but my sisters did. They ran with me back to my bed, and there we all cried till I became indignant.
Questions 56 to 60 are based on the following passage. A) B) C) D) E) F) G) H) standing slept pile anything woke bag felt sorts I) nothing J) moment K) presents L) things M) delight N) limp O) second Hi. My name is Dina. I’m a black Canadian. When I was two-and-a-half years old I was adopted (收养) by a white couple who already had two biological sons. I am grateful for my parents and two brothers but growing up was sometimes difficult.
Nearly everyone living in our neighborhood was white. Children sometimes teased (逗笑) me and called me names because I was black...because I was different... and because I didn’t know who my biological parents were.
Adults could also be cruel. Sometimes they would refuse to acknowledge my parents as my real parents. It was difficult to understand such an attitude but as I grew older I began to realize that they simply didn’t understand that my parents had CHOSEN to raise me. I also realized that being an adopted child didn’t make my own family less real or less valuable.
Now that I am older, I can see that I was lucky to be adopted. In North America, most couples who adopt children want newborn babies. When a child is older than two or three, it becomes more difficult for him or her to be adopted.
Children who cannot find parents to adopt them are placed in foster (收养) homes. Foster children do not become legal members of the family and may live with several different families while they are growing up.
Fortunately this didn’t happen to me. As an adopted child, I grew up as part of a family and with the same security as a child born to the family. My parents are my parents and my brothers are my brothers. I can’t imagine calling anyone else “mother” and “father” or “brother”. “Adoption” is a word for outsiders. 56. 57. 58. 59. 60.

Question 61 to 65 are based on the following passage
Time spent in a bookshop can be most enjoyable, whether you are a book lover or only there to buy a book as a present. You may even have entered the shop just to find shelter from a sudden shower. Whatever the reason, you can soon become totally unaware of your
surroundings. The desire to pick up a book with an attractive design is irresistible, although this method of selection ought not to be followed, as you might end up with a rather uninteresting book. You soon become lost in some book or other, and usually it is only much later that you realize you have spent far too much time there and must hurry to keep some forgotten appointment --- without buying a book, of course.
The opportunity to escape the realities of everyday life is, I think, the main attraction of a bookshop. There are not many places where it is possible to do this. A music shop is very much like a bookshop. You can go to such places as much as you wish. If it is a good shop, no assistant will approach you with the greeting: “Can I help you, sir?” You needn’t buy anything you don’t want. In a bookshop, an assistant should remain in the background until you have finished reading. You may want to find out where a particular section is. Then, and only then, are his services necessary. But when he has led you there, the assistant should leave politely and look as if he is not interested in selling a single book.

学习外语是我一生中最艰苦也是最有意义的经历之一。虽然时常遭遇挫折,但却非常有价值。它不仅使我懂得了艰苦努力的意义,而且让我了解了不同的文化,让我以一种全新的思维去看待事物。学习一门外语最令人兴奋的收获是我能与更多的人交流。
Learning a foreign language was one of the most difficult yet most rewarding experiences of my life. Although at times learning a language was frustrating, it was well worth the effort。Not only did learning another language teach me the value of hard work, but it also gave me insights into another culture, and my mind was opened to new ways of seeing things. The most wonderful result of having learned a foreign language was that I could communicate with many more people than before.
要是我的朋友没有激励我继续努力去参加写作比赛,我永远也不可能做一名成功的作家。我过去一般不参加比赛,因为我一直认为自己写的东西糟糕透顶。我觉得别人会嘲笑我写的东西或做出类似的反应。即使是我写了什么文章之后,我也会推迟到明年再投稿发表。当我得知自己赢得了写作比赛时,惊讶万分。是我的朋友将我的稿子寄给了竞赛组委会。
I could never be a successful writer if my friend had not urged me to go ahead and enter the writing contest. I used to skip the contest, because I always thought that my writing was absolutely awful. I thought people would laugh at it or something. Even after I finished writing something, I’d probably postpone contributing it until the following year. I was greatly surprised when I was told that I had won the writing contest. It was my friend who had sent my story for me to the contest committee.
