1、  语篇翻译  阅读下面的短文，将划线部分译成英文或中文。

Reading an English newspaper is a good way to improve a student’s language ability. As there are many useful and common words in an English newspaper, it may help students increase their vocabulary（词汇量）as well as improve their reading skills. 66.他们可以从报纸上学到新的知识。 But what is the proper way to read an English newspaper? Do students need to look over all the content（内容）of the newspaper?

The first step is to choose a right newspaper with good language. Then turn to the front page and read the headlines（标题）to know what has happened. As the most important things are put on the front page, it’s easy to find out what you’re interested in and then turn to the page to read it completely. 67 .There is no need to go through all the articles.

Secondly, read newspapers every day. Remember words through context（上下文）, in which these words may appear repeatedly. 68. Once they appear several times, you will remember them easily. Don’t look up every unknown word in your dictionary. You can try to guess the meaning between sentences. 69.如果你的猜测错了，不要放弃。   Keep reading, and you will become familiar with the words after reading them several times in different texts.

Reading English newspapers makes us knowledgeable. 70 .It can not only help us know what is happening in the world but also improve our language.

24、When you meet someone for the first time,  you will get a general idea in your mind of that person in the first moment． Your feelings about other people,  however,  are really just show the way that you look at yourself． Your reactions to others say more about you than they do about others． You cannot really love or hate about yourself． We are usually drawn to those who are most like us and may dislike those who have the same characters as ourselves that we dislike．

Therefore,  you can allow others to be the mirror to see more clearly your own feelings of self-worth． And,  you can view the people you judge negatively (否定地) as mirrors to show you what you are not accepting about yourself．

To live peacefully with others,  you will need to learn patience． A big challenge is to let your judgment of others be a lifelong research of yourself． Your task is to consider all the decisions and judgments you make onto others carefully and to begin to see whether you can use them to help yourself and become whole．

Several days ago I had a business lunch with a man who showed objectionable table manners． My first feeling was to judge him as rude． When I noticed that I was judging him,  I stopped and asked myself what I was feeling． I discovered that I was nervous to be seen with someone who was eating with his mouth open and loudly blowing his nose． I was very surprised to find how much I cared about how the other people in the restaurant judged me．

Remember that your judgment of someone will not serve as some kind of protective thing against you becoming like him． Just because I judge my lunch partner as rude,  it does not prevent me from ever looking or acting like him． In the same way,  my patience to him would not cause me to suddenly begin eating my food with my mouth open．

When you get close to life in this manner,  those with whom you hate very much as well as those whom you admire and love can be seen as mirrors,  guiding you to discover parts of yourself that you dislike and to embrace your greatest characters you are proud of．

【1】In the writer’s opinion,  when we judge others,  we are really ______．

A．treating them in a polite way

B．showing what we ourselves are

C．guiding ourselves to know them

D．telling them what they should do

【2】Why did the writer feel bad when he was with his lunch partner?

A．Because he was afraid he himself might get the bad habits．

B．Because he was too angry to go on with his lunch any more．

C．Because he was afraid he might be thought badly of by others．

D．Because he was too nervous to speak his opinions out right there．

【3】The underlined word “objectionable” in Paragraph 4 probably means ______．

A．unbelievable

B．unforgettable

C．unacceptable

D．unreasonable

【4】The writer writes the passage to ______．

A．tell us a story that happened in a restaurant

B．ask us not to behave rudely in some public places

C．encourage us to have the right attitude towards others

D．advise us to know ourselves from judging others properly

26、Even if the word “pop” disappears from the English vocabulary, the influence of pop will remain. Pop has become part of British and American history.

There has always been a close cultural link or tie, between Britain and English-speaking America, not only in literature but also in the popular arts especially music. Before the Second World War, the Americans exported jazz and the blues. During the 1950s, they exported rock and roll, and star singers like Elvis Presley were idolized by young British and Americans alike.

The people responsible for the pop revolution(改革) were four Liverpool boys who joined together in a group and called themselves the Beatles. They played in small clubs in the back streets of the city. Unlike the famous solo stars who had their songs written for them, the Beatles wrote their own words and music. They had a close personal relationship with their audience, and they expected them to join in and dance to the beat of the music. Audience participation is a necessary characteristic of pop culture.

Some pop groups, especially the Rolling Stones, did more than just entertainment. They wrote words which were intended to shock on purpose. They represented the anger and bitterness of youth fighting for freedom against authority(权威).

The Beatles, on the other hand, finally won the love and respect of people of all ages and social backgrounds. As they developed, their songs became more serious. They wrote not only about love, but about death, poverty and daily life. They were respected by many intellectuals(知识分子) and by some serious musicians. Largely thanks to the Beatles, pop music has grown into an influential career which also brings much wealth.

【1】What kind of music is not mentioned in the passage?

A．The Beatles.

27、Everyone needs friends. There is an old saying: Friends are God’s way of taking care of us. But how do you find real friendship and keep it?

“The Care and Keeping of Friends” by American author Sally Seamans tells young students some smart ways to find friends.

Sally says finding friendship is just like planting a tree. You plant the seed and take care of it to make it grow.

First, you should choose a friend. What makes a good friend? It is not because a person has money or good looks. A good friend should be kind and patient. For example, if you have a bad day, a good friend should listen to your complaints(抱怨) and do their best to help. To make a friend, you cannot be too shy. You should make each other happy and share your lives.

But things cannot always be happy. Even the best friends have fights. What should you do when you have a fight with your friend? You have to talk to them. When there is no one around, have an honest talk. If he or she doesn’t want to talk, you could write a letter.

Sally says there are three steps to being friends again: Tell him or her how you are feeling; say what your friend has done wrong, and explain why you did this or that. The book also has advice on some small but important things like celebrating your friends’ success. Even if you haven’t had a real friend before, you will start to think of having one if you read this book. Because the book tells that friendship is the most important thing in your life.

28、阅读下面材料，在空白处填入一个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式（每空词数不限）。

While some people stick to only one kind of movie, I like to watch different kinds depending 【1】 how I feel that day.
