21、In our daily life, we may often meet compulsive liars(说谎成性的人). They find the truth almost uncomfortable for them. 【1】 Here are the signs to look for to know when people are lying and whether or not they are compulsive liars.

Watch for stress signs. Usually, it’s pretty hard to recognize compulsive liars, since they act very naturally when they’re lying; yet, they still seem a little stressed. Watch for certain stress signs such as rubbing their hands together. Do they have a forced smile? Do you notice any unusual breaks in their gestures 【2】.

Pay close attention to their eyes. The idea that a person cannot look you in the eye while lying is wrong! 【3】 However, studies show that compulsive liars may use too much eye contact, since they are trying very hard to convince you.

Keep an eye on contradictions. Compulsive liars tend to lie so much that their lies begin to contradict each other. Compare stories with shared friends of the person you are suspecting of being a compulsive liar. 【4】 Also, when asked something, most liars will avoid the truth by answering with questions. 【5】 According to a study, people should pay attention to four actions that can show someone is lying or hiding something. These signals are believed to be dishonest: hand touching, face touching, crossing arms and leaning away.

A．Notice certain speechless actions.

B．This may be true for some inexperienced liars.

C．It’s right to tell when someone is lying to you.

D．See if you notice that certain stories have changed.

E．They may choose to tell unbelievable stories to seek others’ attention.

F．If you notice an unusual break, this is a specific sign of lying.

G．Stressed people may experience an increased need to drink water.

22、A trip to London

My family had dreamed of a trip to London for a long time. Luckily it was possible for us to realize our dream because all of us were free on the weekend.

We planned to drive into Cambridge and caught the 7: 34 train to Liverpool Street Station.Then my wife and I would separate from Joan, my wife’s sister, to do different things and finally meet again for lunch. And after lunch, we would go to the concert.

But we were late because of a thick London fog. The train had to move along so slowly that it was not until 10:30 that it got there. In spite of our late arrival, Joan decided that she would go to see the Crown Jewels in the Tower of London while we went shopping. It was only after her sister had disappeared into the fog that my wife realized that we hadn’t decided where we should meet for lunch. Since I had our three tickets for the concert in my pocket, this was indeed a problem. We didn’t have any mobile phones at that time. There seemed to be nothing we could do except taking a taxi to the Tower of London, and try to find her there. Needless to say, we didn’t find her.

It was now one o’clock, and the concert began at 2: 30. “Perhaps she will think of waiting outside the concert hall,” said my wife hopefully. By this time the fog was so thick that road traffic had to stop, and the only way to get there was by subway. Hand in hand we felt our way along the road to where we thought the nearest station should be. An hour later we were still trying to find it.Just when I was about to become angry, we met a blind man tapping his way confidently through the fog. With his help we found the subway station which was just fifty meters down the road.

By now it was far too late to get to the concert hall before the performance began at 2: 30, so we decided to return to Cambridge. It took seven hours instead of the usual two to make that journey. Nor were we able to get any food and drink on the train. We were tired and hungry.

We finally reached home at ten. Opening the door we were amazed to find Joan at home; she  had seen the Crown Jewels, had managed to get another ticket for concert, and had had a wonderful  dinner at a restaurant. Of course, she managed to get home, too. Oh my god!

【1】What did the writer plan to do after lunch that day?

A. Go to the concert. B. Return to Cambridge.

C. Go shopping.     D. See the Crown Jewels.

【2】The writer and his wife separated from Joan because _______.

A. they were late for the concert

B. Joan didn’t want to go to the concert

C. there was a thick fog

D. they planned to do different things until lunch time

【3】Who helped the writer find the subway station?

A. A taxi driver. B. A blind man.

C. His wife. D. Joan.

【4】The writer and his wife felt _______ on the train back home.

A. quite interested B. rather disappointed

C. tired and hungry D. very enjoyable

23、Shirley Temple Black, who lifted America’s spirit as a bright-eyed child movie star during the Great Depression, peacefully passed away at her California home on Monday evening at 85, surrounded by her family and caregivers.

Temple, born on April 23, 1928, started her entertainment career in the early 1930s and was famous by age 6. Temple was 3 when her mother put her in dance school, where a talent scout spotted her and got her in Baby Burlesks, a series of short movies with child actors playing in adult movies.

Movie studio directors took notice of her and in 1934 she appeared in the film Stand Up and Cheer! and her song and dance caught people’s attention. Movies such as Little Miss Marker and Bright Eyes featured her signature song. In 1935, she received a special Oscar for her “outstanding contribution to screen entertainment” in the movie Stand Up and Cheer!

She made some 40 feature movies, including The Little Colonel, Poor Little Rich Girl, Heidi and Rebecca of Sunnybrook Farm, in 10 years, starring with big-name actors like Randolph Scott, Lionel Barrymore and Jimmy Durante. Temple was a superstar before the term was invented. She said she was about 8 when crowds shouting their love for her made her realize she was famous. “I wondered why,” she recalled. “I asked my mother and she said, ‘Because your films make them happy.’ ”

Her child career came to an end at 12. She tried a few roles as a teenager—including opposite future president Ronald Reagan in That Hagen Girl – but retired from the screen in 1949 at 21.

Temple was only 17 when she married for the first time to John Agar, who would eventually appear with her in two movies. Their five-year marriage produced a daughter. In 1950 she wed Charles Black in a marriage that lasted until his death in 2005. She and Black had two children. Temple’s interest in politics was sparked in the early 1950s when her husband was called back into the Navy to work in Washington.

【1】For which movie did Shirley Temple win the Oscar?

A. That Hagen Girl

B. Little Miss Marker

C. Stand Up and Cheer

D. The Little Colonel

【2】When Temple first caught the audience’s eyes, ____.

A. she hoped to play a role in a series of movies

D. the United States was in fact in financial straits

【3】After Temple got married to Charles Black, ____.

A. she might have begun her political life

B. she had to raise her two young children

C. she decided to work for the Navy

D. she ended her film career on screen

【4】It can be inferred from the fourth paragraph that ___.

C. Temple disliked crowds shouting at her

D. Temple’s mother was worried about her

24、   Parents often believe that they have a good relationship with their teenagers. But last summer, Joanna and Henry noticed a change in their older son: suddenly he seemed to be talking far more to his friends than to his parents. “The door to his room is always shut.” Joanna noted.

Tina and Mark noticed similar changes in their 14-year-old daughter. ”She used to cuddle up with me on the sofa and talk,” said Mark. “Now we joke that she does this only when she wants something. Sometimes she wants to be treated like a little girl and sometimes like a young lady. The problem is figuring out which time is which.”

Before age 11, children like to tell their parents what’s on their minds. “ In fact, parents are first on the list.” Said Michael Riera, author of Uncommon Sense for Parents with Teenagers. “This completely changes during the teen years.” Riera explained. “They talk to their friends first, then maybe their teachers, and their parents last.”

Parents who know what’s going on in their teenagers’ lives are in the best position to help them. To break down the wall of silence, parents should create chances to understand what their children want to say, and try to find ways to talk and write to them. And they must give their children a mental break, for children also need freedom, though young. Another thing parents should remember is that to be a friend, not a manager, with their children is a better way to know them.

【1】What troubles Tina and Mark most is that______

A. their daughter isn't  as lovely as before.

B. they can't  read their  daughter's mind exactly.

C. they  don't know what to say to their daughter.

D. their daughter talks with them only when she needs help.

【2】Which of the following best explains ”the wall of silence” in the last paragraph?

A. Teenagers talk a lot with their friends.

B. Teenagers do not want to understand their parents.

C. Teenagers do not talk much with their parents.

D. Teenagers talk little about their own lives.

【3】What can be learned from the passage?

A. Parents are unhappy with their growing children.

B. Parents have suitable ways to talk with their teenagers.

C. Parents should be patient with their silent teenagers.

D. Parent should try to understand their teenagers.

26、阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。

Dad dipped his hand into my basket. “What’s that?” he asked. “Mew,”said the basket. “ Oh no,” he said. “ Not a cat. No way. ” I pulled Checkers from the basket. “ It’s not a cat. It’s a kitten. Can I keep him? Please?” Dad frowned for a minute, thinking. Then he rubbed Checkers under the chin. “You’ll have to take good care of him. ” I hugged Checkers. “I will,” I promised. “He won’t be any trouble at all. ”

And Checkers wasn’t—until he grew into a cat. Sometimes he tripped Dad. “That cat!” Dad complained. Checkers climbed onto our roof. He had no trouble getting down. Usually he aimed for Dad. “That cat！”Dad yelled. Checkers flushed（冲水）the toilet，watching the water circle away. “That cat!”Dad groaned.

Checkers hid in strange places. He liked to surprise people. One day he hid under the couch. Dad walked by with a glass of orange juice. Checkers jumped out. He curled（蜷缩）around Dad’s ankle and attacked Dad’s toes. Orange juice spilt all over the floor. “Get out, Cat!” Dad roared. And he slammed the door.

Dad washed the scratches and peeled open bandages and wrapped them around his big toe and his ankle. I watched from the window. Checkers looked frustrated as he walked down the road. “I’m sorry. ” I said. “He was just playing. He didn’t mean to hurt you. ” “Don’t worry,” said Dad. “He will be back. ”

After supper I called for Checkers. But Checkers didn’t come. Nighttime came. I called and called. But still no Checkers. I left the porch light on. But the next morning Checkers still wasn’t there. I carried a picture of Checkers to all the neighbors. But nobody found Checkers. Days went by. Life wasn’t the same without that cat.

I was angry with Dad. I didn’t think he missed Checkers at all.
