26、   My mother was an excellent housekeeper. She had a few surgeries over the years, and before each one she’d have my father move the stove out from the wall so she could clean behind it. It would have been hard for her to relax in the hospital if she knew there were dust balls behind the stove.

The entire house was tidy and organized – there was a place for everything and everything

was in its place. Mom would hang the sheets outside to dry rather than inside the house. And if storm clouds gathered, she would run outside, race down to the sheets, throw them into a bag, and then race back to the house as the rain started, satisfied that a major catastrophe had been avoided. Throughout our entire childhoods, my sisters and I were spoiled with fresh bedding and cookies fresh from the oven.

There’s something beautiful about freshness, like the beginning of a school year, the start of a marriage, the birth of a child, moving to a new place, or starting a new job.

Freshness is like opening a new calendar that isn’t yet filled with neglected tasks. A new year always means a chance at a fresh start. But the question is, how do we choose to make this new start?

Maybe I need to do some housekeeping myself. A good sweeping usually leads to finding some interesting things – an old memory or two and new hobbies that fell by the wayside. Perhaps it’s time to clean out all those drawers filled with junk – the ones holding old tapes that replay the things I regret doing and the things that I wish I had done.

My personality could use some polish (亮光剂) as well – the ability to listen more than I talk. Glass cleaner (玻璃清洁剂) would be a good idea too – something to give me a clearer view of the things that matter and the things that don’t.

Cleaning is rarely my first choice of activity, but I’m ready to go and do what needs to be done. Here’s to a fresh start and a new year.

【1】What can we learn about the author’s mother according to the article?

A.She prefer rainy days to sunny days.

B.She couldn’t bear anything to be unorganized in her house.

C.She required her daughters to wash their own bedding.

D.She ask her husband to do the housekeeping during her surgeries.

【2】What does the author think about her childhood?

A.She has forgotten it B.It was painful for her.

C.It was full of happiness. D.She was spoiled by her mother.

【3】Why does the author decide to do some housekeeping herself?

A.She see it as a chance to improve herself and move on.

B.She wants to help reduce her mother’s burden.

C.She is quite bothered by her messy house.

D.She thinks it’s time to learn some life skills.

【4】The author wrote this article mainly to ______

A.give advice on how to clean the house.

B.inspire people’s thought and plan for the new year.

C.share the story of her mother’s strength.

D.recall her mother sisters and father.

27、Many people don’t treat themselves very well. They break promises to themselves, eat poorly, don’t get enough sleep, are self-critical or fail to take good care of their bodies.

A great technique for treating yourself better is by developing your Inner Nurturing Parent. Imagine you had a little child. You’d make every effort to keep her healthy and safe; to love and support her; to be forgiving her mistakes and her inevitable slips; and to let her know how precious and important she is.【1】Only, in this case, you’re the parent and the child.

【2】Tell yourself, “I love you and appreciate who you are.” When you do something well, give yourself a pat on the back. Say, “Great job! I’m so proud of you.” When you’re struggling or feeling low, be supportive by saying, “I’m here for you. You’re not alone,”

Take good care of yourself. A loving parent would make sure you eat right and get plenty of rest sleep, fresh air and exercise. 【3】 Practicing good self-care is an essential part of this process.

Set healthy boundaries with others. Let people know what you want and don’t want. Tell them what’s okay for you and what’s not. If you have a friend who’s always late and you end up waiting for her and feeling annoyed,   tell her how you feel.【4】

Be concerned about yourself.【5】You’re human and you’re going to make mistakes. Don’t punish or blame yourself.   Reassure yourself. Comfort yourself. Accept yourself unconditionally.

A．Cheer yourself up constantly.

B．A nurturing parent. wouldn’t let someone treat you badly.

C．Have sympathy for your humanity and your weaknesses.

D．That’s what a loving parent does.

E．You should always regard yourself as a child.

F．Send loving messages to yourself.

G．Keep yourself healthy and fit.

28、   Even before my father left us, my mother had to go back to work to support our family. Once I came out of the kitchen, complaining, “Mom, I can’t peel potatoes. I have only one hand.”

Mom never looked up from sewing. “You get yourself into that kitchen and peel those potatoes,” she told me. “And don’t ever use that as an excuse for anything again!”

In the second grade, our teacher lined up my class on the playground and had each of us race across the monkey bars, swinging from one high steel rod(棒) to the next. When it was my turn, I shook my head. Some kids behind me laughed, and I went home crying.

That night I told Mom about it. She hugged me, and I saw her “we’ll see about that” look. The next afternoon, she took me back to school. At the deserted playground, Mom looked carefully at the bars.

“Now, pull up with your right arm,” she advised. She stood by as I struggled to lift myself with my right hand until I could hook the bar with my other elbow. Day after day we practiced, and she praised me for every rung I reached. I’ll never forget the next time, crossing the rungs, I looked down at the kids who were standing with their mouths open.

One night, after a dance at my new junior high, I lay in bed sobbing. I could hear Mom come into my room. “Mom,” I said, weeping, “none of the boys would dance with me.”

For a long time, I didn’t hear anything. Then she said, “Oh, honey, someday you’ll be beating those boys off with a bat.” Her voice was faint. I peeked out from my covers to see tears running down her cheeks. Then I knew how much she suffered on my behalf. She had never let me see her tears.

【1】Which of the following expressions can be used most suitably to describe Mom’s attitude when she made the child peel potatoes?

A.Cruel. B.Serious. C.Cold. D.Strict.

【2】What does the sentence “I saw her ‘we’ll see about that’ look” in Paragraph 4 imply?

A.Mom believed every aim could be achieved if you stuck to it.

B.The race across monkey bars was not difficult enough for a child to give up.

C.Mom was determined to prove she herself was better than the teacher.

D.What the child had said brought Mom great attraction and curiosity.

【3】When the child looked down at the kids, they were standing with their mouths open because ______.

A.they felt sorry for what they had done before

B.they were afraid the author might fall off and get hurt

C.they were astonished to find the author’s progress

D.they wanted to see what the author would do on the bars

【4】The most probable conclusion we can draw after reading the passage is that ______.

C.Mom could solve any problem except the one in the last paragraph

29、   Three important changes that will affect people’s everyday life in the future.

The cashless society

Cash and bank notes will disappear almost completely. They will be replaced by smart cards with microchip(微芯片) “loaded” with some money. When we pay for goods, we will put our smart cards into a payment terminal(终端) and money will be transferred(转) from our cards to the retailer’s (零售商的) card. When all the money is used up, we will be able to “reload” it by inserting it into a telephone, dialing our bank account and putting money to the card from the account. If we want to transfer money from our cards to a bank account, we will use the same method. Smart cards will be able to hold several different currencies at the same time. So if we go abroad, we will be able to use our smart cards in the same way.

Interactive telephones

Human telephones will be replaced by talking computers. These computers will recognize speech, ask us what information we need, find the information and change it to speech. If we want to book a flight or pay a bill by phone, we will ask a talking computer to do it. Of course, this won’t happen until all the technology is in place, but when it is we will soon get used to using computers in this way.

____________________

Traffic congestion(拥挤) in cities will be reduced because drivers will use electronic maps to find the quickest way to their destinations and avoid traffic jams. Because people have to pay to drive in cities, they will stop using their cars and use public transport instead. Speed control systems will be built into cars. These systems will control the speed of the car according to the traffic and weather conditions and prevent accidents.

【1】The underlined word “currencies” can be best replaced by ________.

A.cards B.kinds of money C.banks D.telephones

【2】The best title for the last paragraph can be “__________”.

A.Intelligent cars B.Fewer traffic jams C.Fewer traffic accidents D.Cleverer drivers

【3】Which of the following CANNOT be inferred from the passage?

A.Smart cards will be very important in the future.

B.Goods will be cheaper in the future.

C.Talking computers will do many daily things in the future.

D.Driving will be safer in the future.

30、Regardless of the weather or the distance, Paul Wilson will make sure low-income students in his neighbourhood arrive at their college classes on time.

A retired engineer, 76-year-old Wilson has been_________ free rides to college students for the past eight years. Since he first started_________his car to the young people. Wilson has covered an astonishing 64, 000 miles, and has had countless pleasant and often humorous_________with the students he transports to and from school. The students who he's_________have gone on to become physicians, teachers and engineers, but what they've also got out of their time in school is finding a role model and a friend in Wilson. Some students_________call him “Grandpa”.

Tina Stern_________rides from Wilson for all her four years in college, and the trips meant much more to her than just free_________. “It’s not just a ride；you’re not just sitting there in awkward silence or with your headphones on.” Stern said. “He asks you questions and actually_________the answers, so the next time you ride with him, he’ll check on those things.”

Wilson first worked as a driver through a student-support programme of the non-profit organisation. On Point for College. Although the_________asks the members only to drive students to and from their classes, Wilson often goes __________to ensure the welfare and safety of the students. If they have problems with registration, Wilson is there to__________ them. If they run out of certain daily necessities, Wilson will drive to the nearest store and purchase what’s needed. If a student gets hungry on the long drives to and from school, Wilson never__________to buy them a meal.

For many students, Wilson’s help is not only appreciated, it’s also entirely__________for them to be able to complete their college education. Some students don’t have a reliable car, while others have to share vehicles with parents who work six days a week. For them, riding with Wilson has__________them to complete their education — but according to Wilson, he benefits just as much from the experience. “I just love driving, and I love these kids,” Wilson said. “It’s such a（n）__________to be a part of these kids’ lives, even just for a few hours, getting to know them and hearing their stories.”

31、课文内容填空

Middle English is the name 【1】(give) to the English used from around the 12th to the 15th centuries. Many things played a part in the 【2】(develop) of this new type of English. The most important 【3】(贡献) was from the Normans, a 【4】 (French speak) people who【5】 (打败) England and took control of the country in 1066. 【6】, the Norman Conquest did not affect English as much as the Angles and the Saxons’ victory about 600 years earlier, which led to Old English 【7】 (replace) Celtic. Even though the Normans spoke French for the e【8】 250 years they ruled England, French did not replace English 【9】 the first language. On the other hand, the English language did borrow many words from French. This resulted in even more words with similar meanings, such as answer (from Old English) and reply (from Old French). It is interesting to learn 【10】 the words for animals and meat developed.
