Despite(盡管) the distance the islands actually make up the fiftieth state of the United States. The islands were all formed by volcanic eruption and on the largest of the islands, Hawaii, or the Big Island, there are still two active volcanoes, the Mauna Loa and the Kilauea, which still erupt every few years. On the Hawaiian islands the natives have a particularly strange way of indicating directions. They don’t use the north, south, east and west system mon to the rest of the world. They use the mauka and makai system. Mauka means “mountain”. The mountains in Hawaii are always at the center of the islands, as these are volcanic islands. Makai means “the sea”. The islands are small and the system is simple. Wherever you want to visit, it can always be described in terms of where it lies in relation to the mountains and the sea. A typical conversation between a native Hawaiian and a tourist might go as follow. TOURIST: Excuse me! Could you tell me where the Sheraton Hotel is? HAWAIIAN: Well… Let me see! From here it’s two blocks mauka, and then one block makai. You can’t miss it! 21. This passage would be most likely to appear in which of the following? A. A novel. B. A collection of stories. C. A women’s magazine. D. A reference book. 22. Choose the most suitable title for the article. A. The Big Island. B. Volcanoes. C. Giving Directions in Hawaii D. The Hawaiian Islands. 23. Which of the following items does the passage NOT discuss? A. Hawaii’s location. B. How to give directions in Hawaii. C. Volcanoes. D. The climate. 24. In Hawaii the mountains are in the center of the islands because . A. of the weather B. the islands were created by volcanic eruptions C. of the geological conditions D. of the islands’ location in the Pacific 25. To find your way in Hawaii, you must . A. refer to geographical directions B. refer to well-known establishments C. refer to the earth and the sea D. refer to the location of the mountains and the sea B People in the United States honor their parents with two special days: Mother’s Day, on the second Sunday in May, and Father’s Day, on the third Sunday in June. Mother’s Day was proclaimed a day for national observance by President Woodrow Wilson in 1915. Ann Jarvis from Grafton, West Virginia, had started the idea to have a day to honor mothers. She was the one who chose the second Sunday in May and also began the custom of wearing a carnation. In 1909, Mrs. Dodd from Spokane, Washington, thought of the idea of a day to honor fathers. She wanted to honor her own father, William Smart. After her mother died, he had the responsibility of raising a family of five sons and a daughter. In 1910, the first Father’s Day was observed in Spokane. Senator Margaret Chase Smith helped to established Father’s Day as a national memorative day, in 1972. These days are set aside to show love and respect for parents. They raise their children and educate them to be responsible citizens. They give love and care. These two special days are celebrated in many different ways. On Mother’s Day people wear carnations. A red one symbolizes a living mother. A white one shows that the mother is dead．Many people attend religious services to honor parents. It is also a day when people whose parents are dead visit the cemetery. On these days families get together at home, as well as in restaurants. They often have outdoor barbecues for Father’s Day. These are days of fun and good feelings and memories. 26．According to the passage, which of the following about the second Sunday in May is not true ? A．It is a day to show love to mothers B．It is a day to wear carnations C．It is a day for people to visit the cemetery D．It is a day for many people to attend religious services 27．Choose the right time order of the following events. a. The first Father’s Day was observed b. Mother’s Day was proclaimed a day for national observance c. Father’s Day became a day for national observance. d. The idea of honoring fathers was bought up A．a(chǎn) b c d B．d a b c C．b a c d D．d a c b 28．Who plays the most important role in Father’s Day being a national memorative day? A．Mrs. Do B．Margaret Chase Smith C．Ann Jarvis D．Woodrow Wilson 29．From the passage, we know in the U.S ________________. A．one should wear a red carnation if one’s mother pass away B．on Mother’s Day, families often go out to have barbecues C．on Father’s Day, people often stay at home to celebrate the special day. D．The purpose to have these two special days is to show love to parents 30．The author’s purpose of writing this passage is to __________ A．call on people to love and respect their parents. B．introduce Mother’s Day and Father’s Day. C．tell the difference between Mother’s Day and Father’s Day D．show how important fathers and mothers are C Many of us mistakenly believe that its wrong to think we have any good qualities. We may spend a lot of time blaming ourselves for our negative qualities, thinking that self criticism is the key to improving our performance. However, a constant focus on our supposed shortings can stop our efforts to make friends with other people. How can we believe that others could like us if we believe our inner being is flawed(有缺陷)? 　　If someone seems to dislike you, the reason for that dislike might have little or nothing to do with you. The person who doesnt like you might be fearful, or shallow, or busy or shy. Perhaps you and that person are simply a mismatch for each other at this particular time. 　　Dont take yourself out of the game by deciding that your flaws are bigger than your good qualities. In fact, some o f the very qualities you consider to be flaws may be irresistible to someone else. For all the factors that might cause one person to reject you, there are at least as many factors that will work in your favor with someone else. 　　You might be thirty pounds over your ideal weight, but you may have a wonderful laugh and a real enthusiasm for life. There are many people who don’t mind your extra pounds. You may drive a shabby car, but you might be a great dancer and a loyal friend. There are people out there looking for loyalty, or fun, or sweetness, or wisdom, and the package it es in is not important. If you are worried that you are not beautiful enough to attract friends, keep in mind that not everyone is looking for physical beauty in their friends. You can decide to feel inferior(自卑) because you dont have much money and you dont drive a nice car. You can believe that this is the reason that you dont have many friends in your life. On the other hand, if you are very wealthy you may be suspicious that everyone is after your money and that nobody really likes yo u as a person. 　　The point is that you can focus on just about anything and believe its the reason you do not have friends and cannot make any. 　31. According to the author ___________ plays an important role in making friends. 　　A. admitting your shortings B. self criticism C. modesty D. confidence 　32. If you are not liked by a person, _________ . 　　A. you should find the reason in yourself 　　B. you’d better talk with the person face to face 　　C. you may not be the one to be blamed 　　D. you and that person misunderstand each other 　33. We can learn from the third paragraph that ____________ . 　　A. your good qualities may turn out to be your flaws 　　B. your weakness may also be your strengths in some way 　　C. your negative qualities cause a person to reject you 　　D. you’ll have few friends if your flaws are bigger than your good qualities 　34. Which of the following is true according to the author? 　　A. It is important to lose weight. 　　B. It is easier for a wealthy person to make friends. 　　C. Inner qualities are more important than physical appearance. 　　D. If you are not beautiful enough, try to improve yo ur physical beauty. 　35. What do you think the author is most likely to suggest if he continues to write? 　　A. How to find your good qualities. 　　B. How to make friends. 　　C. How to make self criticism. 　　D. How to lose weight. 第二節(jié) 完形填空（共20小題；每小題2分，滿分40分） 閱讀下面短文，從短文后所給各題的四個選項（A、B、C和D）中，選出可以填入空白處的最佳選項，并在答題卡上將該項涂黑。 When my mom came home from the hospital with twins, I was excited at the very beginning.

Nature has prepared 58 for the cold conditions. But nothing has prepared the bears for the danger that 59 (threat) the only home they know. 　　The polar bears’ world is melting.

Some of my classmates are in favor of the move. They say large crowds of tourists to the zoo will result in traffic jams. They also say that once moved, animals will have more space and better living conditions in the suburbs. However, other students are against the idea, saying that the Beijing Zoo, built in 1906, has a history of 100 years, and is well–known at home and abroad. So it should remain where it is. What’s move more ore, moving may cause the death of
