第三部分 阅读（共两节，满分40分）
第一节 阅读理解（共15小题，每小题2分，满分30分）
阅读下列三篇短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。“”
（A）
On November18, 1995, Itzhak Perlman, the world famous violinist, came on stage to give a concert at Lincoln Centre in New York City. If you have ever been to a Perlman concert, you know that getting on stage is not easy for him. He got polio（小儿麻痹症）as a child, and has to walk with the aid of two crutches（拐杖）now.
That night Perlman walked slowly to his chair. Then he sat down and began to play. But, suddenly, one of the strings on his violin broke. You could hear it break---it broke with a loud noise.
People thought to themselves, “He would have to get up to either find another violin or find another string for this one.”
But he didn’t. Instead, he waited a moment, closed his eyes and then signaled the conductor to begin again. The orchestra（管弦乐队）began, and he played from where he had stopped. He played with such passion and such power.
Of course, everyone knows that it is impossible to play a symphonic work with just three strings. But that night Itzhak Perlman refused to know that. You could see him changing and recomposing（重新作曲）the piece in his head.
When he finished, there was a silence in the room. Then people rose and cheered. We were all on our feet, doing everything we could to show how much we appreciated what he had done.
He smiled and then he said in a quiet tone, “You know, sometimes it is the artist’s task to find out how much music you can make with what you have left.”
His words have stayed in my mind ever since I heard them. That is also the way of life. Perhaps our task in this quickly changing world in which we live is to make music, at first with all that we have, and then, when that is no longer possible, to make music with what we have left.
41. Holding a concert is challenging for Perlman because ______.
A. he is just a world famous violinist
B. he has never performed on stage before
C. he is physically disabled as a result of a disease
D. he has difficulty in moving his body
42. When Perlman had just begun playing, ______.
A. there was something wrong with the violin
B. he fell ill suddenly
C. an accident happened and caused a disturbance
D. a very loud noise arose from the audience
43. If one of the strings suddenly broke, what would an ordinary player do?
A. He would cancel the concert. B. He would play another violin.
C. Another performer would play instead. D. The concert would be put off.
44. The audience rose and cheered ______.
A. to show they are satisfied with Perlman’s performance
B. to thank the orchestra for their passionate performance
C. to ask Perlman for another performance
D. to express their appreciation of Perlman’s creative mind
45. The lesson we draw from the story is that ______.
A. we should make the best of what we have
B. what we have is more important than what is lost
C. we should not care about what is lost
D. the way of life is to always live with music
（B）
Alan took an early interest in gardening---first on his grandfather’s Yorkshire allotment in Ilkley, and then in his parents’ back garden. Small polythene（聚乙烯）greenhouses appeared in the back garden, and cacti（仙人掌）were bought from church markets.
Alan left school at fifteen with one `O’ level in Art and took a job as an apprentice（学徒）gardener in Ilkley Parks Department nursery, studying for his City and Guilds in Horticulture（园艺）in the evening.
He went on to horticultural college at Oaklands in Hertfordshire where he studied for one year full-time, being awarded the National Certificate in Horticultural. This was followed by three years at the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew, resulting in the award of the Kew Diploma.
After two years as supervisor of staff training at Kew, Alan entered journalism where he became first a gardening books editor, and then Deputy Editor of Amateur Gardening magazine. He appeared regularly on BBC Radio and Television in programs such as Nationwide , Breakfast Time, Open Air, Pebble Mill, Songs of Praise, Titchmarsh’s Travels, and the Chelsea Flower Show. He presented the 100th edition of The Word for Channel 4, and hosted the quiz show Ask the Family.
Gardeners’ World and the hugely popular Ground Force, second only to Easterners in the BBC1 ratings, are broadcast as far as Australia, New Zealand and North America. After leaving both programs, Alan worked on two other series for the BBC to be transmitted in 2003 and 2004, one of them a landmark series on the natural history of Britain. Alan writes for the Daily Express, Sunday Express, Radio Times and BBC Gardeners’ World magazine, and has more than thirty gardening books to his credit. His four novels, as well as a book about his own life, have been best sellers.
Alan, 53, gardens organically, and lives with his wife, two daughters and a medley of animals.
46. We know that Alan ______in his school days.
A. was good at writing novels B. loved Horticulture very much even
C. didn’t do so well in his studies D. decided to be an apprentice
47. According to this passage, we can learn that______.
A. Alan accepted little education B. Alan wrote many books about food
C. Alan had never been married D. Alan was first a gardening books editor
48. Though the author doesn’t tell us directly, we can conclude that______.
A. Alan’s school teachers were not good at teaching the subject: Botany
B. when Alan was successful he was working as a journalist of the time
C. Alan had had four years of training in Horticulture before being a journalist
D. born as a man of many talents, Alan didn’t realize the fact until years later
49. Which of the following four programs is more popular than Ground Force in the BBC1 ratings?
A. Breakfast Time. B. Radio Time. C. Gardeners’ World. D. Easterners.
50. What’s the best title for the passage?
A. A Man of Many Talents. B. Botany Makes Him What He Is Today.
C. No Pains, No Gains. D. Can’t a Poorly-graded Student Be Successful?
（C）
Forgiving someone who has hurt you or let you down is never an easy thing. Several new studies, however, say that it could have a lot of health benefits. When you think of forgiveness, you probably don’t think of it as being a health or medical problem. Studies from Stanford University, on the other hand, show that something like anger can change your well-being.
When cartoon book characters like the Incredible Hulk get angry, they change colours and often gain special power. In the real world, anger is less obvious and may be more dangerous. That’s why Professor Fred Luskin, founder of the Stanford Forgiveness Project and author of Forgive for Good, says holding on to anger and hatred can harm your physical and mental health. Two new studies seem to show the same idea.
The studies find that people who are able to forgive feel less stress, less back pain, and less depression. They also have fewer headaches, lower blood pressure, and fewer problems on sleeping.
So it doesn’t matter if your anger is caused by the traffic or other things. Learning to let it go is important. Techniques such as deep breath or thought can help. Or just ask yourself if it’s worth hurting yourself by staying angry with someone else.
Forgiveness does not mean that you simply accept what happened and say it’s OK. Instead, it’s a way of making peace with yourself about what happened in the past.
51. The author of the passage tries to make his viewpoint clear ______.
A. by raising his own examples B. based on his own experience
C. by mentioning some studies D. by mentioning some typical patients
52. The example of the cartoon book characters is taken in the passage to______.
A. support the viewpoint that anger and hatred harm physical and mental health
B. introduce a famous expert
C. let the reader know the different colours of cartoon faces
D. show how to control one’s temper
53. The underlined phrase“holding on to”in this passage possibly means“______”.
A. removing B. keeping up C. getting rid of D. learning about
54. Which of the following is NOT mentioned in this passage?
A. People who are able to forgive feel less stress.
B. People who are able to forgive feel less depression.
C. People who are able to forgive have fewer problems on sleeping.
D. People who are able to forgive feel less tired.
55. The best title for this passage is probably _______.
A. Forgiveness B. Forgiveness Is Good for Health
C. A Secret to Keeping Health D. Anger Is Bad for Health

There are all kinds of stress in our daily lives such as stress from work, stress from study and stress from examinations. How to manage stress is thus a very important problem that we have to deal with properly. I think stress itself doesn’t exist. It’s only because we consider things to be bad and regard all of them as our own fault and won’t forgive ourselves. As we all know, there is nothing you can do without error. So it’s impossible to expect everything to be perfect. If we have done our best, although not successfully, there is nothing to regret. And we don’t need to blame ourselves continuously. In fact we have done a quite good job. Then we will feel the stress less. We will stay healthy and do well in the future. Eventually we will be successful.

Dear younger brother,
I’m writing to discuss with you the problem of bringing mobile phone along to school. I think it’s very common for young people to have a mobile phone nowadays for the life has been improved a lot, but many students cannot have used it in a proper way and it often interrupts the class and even affects their studies. As a middle school student, we don’t have to get in touch with others during our studies. I hope you can draw some useful lessons from other’s failing. You had better not bring your mobile phone along when you go to school.
Love,
Li Dong
第二节：读写任务
Because we always see the bad sides of things and expect too much, we feel stressed. And we must have more self-confidence and try to see the good side of everything to deal with the problem.
I often feel stressed before exams. I don’t believe that I can do a good job because I once failed before and I don’t think that I am well-prepared this time. In order to release the stress, I like to do some physical exercises and have a good rest. The next morning, I will tell myselt to try your best no matter whether you’ll success or not. According to my own experience, I think keeping self-confidence is the most effective way to deal with stress. Trust yourself and you can overcome any difficulties. And also don’t always expect too much. The more you want, maybe the less you get. Just try your best and take it easy, you will feel more comfortable to fulfill your dream.
