Years ago, if a teenager had some problems in his life, he might go home and write in his diary; now, a teenager with 26 problems might go onto the Internet and write about them in a blogIn many ways, a diary and a blog are very 27 ．But what makes blogging different （博客）．
from writing in a（n） 28 diary?
The biggest difference is that a blog is much more 29 than a diary. Usually, a teenager treats his diary like a book full of 30 that he does not want to 31 with others.
It’s interesting that someone who writes in a blog 32 a diary will probably write nearly the same information.
I have a little sister, and sometimes I go online to read her 33 . She writes about things like waking up early for swimming practice and not studying enough for her chemistry test. 34 I was her age, I wrote about the same things, but 35 in my dairy. Then, after I had finished writing, I would hide my diary in a secret place because I was 36 that my sister might read it.
The biggest 37 with blogging is that anyone can read what you write. If I was angry with a friend during high school and wrote something 38 about him in my diary, he would never know. 39 , if my sister ever wrote something bad about a friend, that friend might 40 her blog and get angry. There are also 41 to blogging, of course. If I was feeling sad one day and wrote in my diary, “ Nobody cares about me”, because no one would 42 about it. However, if my sister wrote the same sentence in her blog, her best friends would quickly 43 and tell her how much they 44 her. Blogs help people 45 in contact with their friends and know what the people around them are doing. 27． A．simple B．special C．similar D．different 28． A．personal l B．ordinary C．meaningful D．traditional 29． A．attractive B．public C．exciting D．quick 30． A．thoughts B．puzzles C．ideas D．secrets 31． A．tell B．sh4re C．publish D．solve 32． A．instead of B． as well as C．except for D． besides 33． A．blog B．diary C．report D．web 34． A．Although B．Since C．When D．Because 35． A．only B．already C．still D．never 36． A．angry B．sad C．glad D．worried 37． A． problem B． doubt C． question D． mistake 38． A．boring B．wrong C．mean D．funny 39． A．So B．However C．Therefore D．Then 40． A．steal B．break C．write D．read 41． A． reasons B． wishes C． shortcomings D． advantages
^.
42． A． care 43． A． prepare 44． A． like 45． A． lose
B． know C． think D． ask B． begin C． respond D． feel B． miss C． need D． stand B． stay C． leave D． find
第二部分阅读理解（共两节，满分40分）
第一节（共15小题：每小题2分，满分30分）
阅读下列四篇短文，从每小题后所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项，并
在答题卡上将该选项涂黑。
A
The world is filled with smart, talented, educated and gifted people．We meet them every day A few days ago, my car was not running well．I pulled it in to a garage and the young mechanic had it fixed in just a few minutes．He knew what was wrong by simply listening to the engine．I was amazed．The sad truth is that great talent is not enough．
I am constantly shocked at how little talented people earn. I heard the other day that less than 5 percent of Americans earn more than $100,000 a year. A business consultant who specializes in1 the medical trade was telling me how many doctors and dentists struggle financially. It was this business consultant who gave me the phrase, “They are one skill away from great wealth．”
There is an old saying that goes, \（破产）’\．And unfortunately, I would say that the saying applies to millions of people．Because schools do not think financial intelligence is intelligence, most workers \．They work and they pay the bills．Instead I recommend to young people to seek work for what they will learn, more than what they will earn．
When I ask the classes I teach, “How many of you can cook a better hamburger than McDonald's?” almost all the students raise their hands. I then ask, “So if most of you can cook a better hamburger, how come McDonald's makes more money than you?” The answer is obvious: McDonald's is excellent at business systems. The world is filled with talented poor people. They focus on perfecting their skills at building a better hamburger rather than the skills of selling and delivering the hamburger.
46．The author mentions the mechanic in the first paragraph to show that ． A．he is just one of the talented people B．he is ready to help others C．he has a sharp sense of hearing D．he knows little about car repairing 47．The underlined part in the third paragraph can be best replaced by____ ． A．spend more than they can afford B．do in their own way C．1ive in their own circle D．1ive within what they earn 48．Why do talented people earn so little according to the author? A．They don’t work hard enough． B．They lack financial intelligence． C．They don't make full use of their talents． D．They have no specialized skills． 49．The main purpose of the author is to tell us____ ． A．how young people can find a satisfactory job B．What schools should teach about finance C．why so many talented people are poor D．how McDonald's makes much money

When something goes wrong, it can be very satisfying to say, \it's so-and-so's fault． \ but it's not my fault; the car broke down． \fault, but once you form the habit of blaming somebody or something else for a bad situation, you are a loser． You have no power and can do nothing that helps change the situation． However, you can have great power over what happens to you if you stop focusing on whom to blame and start focusing on how to remedy the situation．This is the winner's key to success． Winners are great at overcoming problems． For example, if you were late because your car broke down, maybe you need to have your car examined more regularly．Or, you might start to carry along with you useful phone numbers, so you can call for help when in need．For another example, if your colleague causes you problems on the job for lack of responsibility or ability, find ways of dealing with his irresponsibility or inability rather than simply blame the person．Ask to work with a different person, or don't rely on this person．You should accept that the person is not reliable and find creative ways to work successfully regardless of how your colleague fails to do his job well． This is what being a winner is all about－creatively using your skills and talents so that you are successful no matter what happens. winners don't have fewer problems in their lives; they have just as many difficult situations to face as anybody else. They are just better at seeing those problems as challenges and opportunities to develop their own talents. So, stop focusing on \stepping stop on for success.
50．According to the passage, winners ． A．deal with problems rather than blame others B． meet with fewer difficulties in their lives C． have responsible and able colleagues D． blame themselves rather than others
51．The underlined word remedy in Paragraph l is closest in meaning to ． A．avoid B．accept C．improve D．consider 52．When your colleague brings about a problem, you should ． A．find a better way to handle the problem B．blame Nm for his lack of responsibility C．tell him to find the cause of the problem D．ask your boss for help
53．When problems occur, winners take them as ． A．excuses for their failures B．barriers to greater power C． challenges to their colleagues D．chances for self-development
C
Heading off to college this year? Here are some fashion tips from our experts you should keep in mind;
Dress to impress: Stylist and business consultant Daniela Smith says, \mind that your college professors will often be the bridge that connects you to your future career and your classmates will become your professional．network． You don't need to dress like you're going to the office, but you should display an ability to properly present yourself with appropriate maturity and confidence, and look put-together．\
