Twenty-one years later I am still a bright-eyed dreamer and one with quite a different tale to tell. My grandma, an amazing woman, graduated from college at the age of 65. She was the first in our family to reach that goal. But one year after I started college, she developed cancer. I made the choice to withdraw from college to care for her. It meant that school and my personal dream would have to wait. Then I got married with another dream: building my family with a combination of adopted(收 养的) and biological children. In 1999, we adopted our first son. To lay eyes on him was Fantastic and very emotional. A year later came our second adopted boy. Then followed son No. 3. In 2003, I gave birth to another boy. You can imagine how fully occupied I became, raising four boys under the age of 8! Our home was a complete zoo — a joyous zoo. Not surprising, I never did make it back to college full-time. But I never gave up on the dream either. I had only one choice: to find a way. That meant taking as few as one class each semester. The hardest part was feeling guilty about the time I spent away from the boys. They often wanted me to stay home with them. There certainly were times I wanted to quit, but I knew I should set an example for them to follow through the rest of their lives. In 2007, I graduated from the University of North Carolina. It took me over 21 years to get my college degree! I am not special, just single-minded. It always struck me that when you’re looking at a big challenge from the outside it looks huge, but when you’re in the midst of it, it just seems normal. Everything you want won’t arrive in your life on one day. It’s a process. Remember: little steps add up to big dreams. 21. When the author went to Howard University, her dream was to be_________. A. a writer B. a doctor　　　　C. a judge D. a journalist 22. Why did the author quit school in her second year of college? A. Her grandma asked her to withdraw from college. B. She fell in love and got married. C. She had so many children to support that she was too busy to continue her college. D. She decided to look after her grandma. 23. What does the author mostly want to tell us in the last paragraph? A. Failure is the mother of success. B. Little by little, one goes far. C. Every coin has two sides. D. Well begun, half done. 24. Which of the following can best describe the author? A. Caring and determined. B. Honest and responsible. C. Ambitious and sensitive. D. Innocent and single-minded. B Every week in China, millions of people will sit in front of their TVs watching teenagers compete for the title Character Hero, which is a Chinese-style spelling bee(拼写大赛). In this challenge, young competitors must write Chinese characters by hand. To prepare for the competition, the competitors usually spend months studying dictionaries. Perhaps the show’s popularity should not be a surprise. Along with gunpowder and paper, many Chinese people consider the creation of Chinese calligraphy(书法)to be one of their primary contributions to civilization. Unfortunately, all over the country, Chinese people are forgetting how to write their own language without computerized help. Software on smart phones and computers allows users to type in the basic sound of the word using the Latin alphabet. The correct character is chosen from a list. The result? It’s possible to recognize characters without remembering how to write them. But there’s still hope for the paint brush. China’s Education Ministry wants children to spend more time learning how to write. In one Beijing primary school we visited, students practice calligraphy every day inside a specially decorated classroom with traditional Chinese paintings hanging on the walls. Soft music plays as a group of six-year-olds dip brush pens into black ink. They look up at the blackboard often to study their teacher’s examples before carefully attempting to reproduce those characters on thin rice paper. “If adults can survive without using handwriting, why bother to teach it now?” we ask the calligraphy teacher, Shen Bin. “The ability to write characters is part of Chinese tradition and culture,” she reasons. “Students must learn now so they don’t forget when they grow up.” says the teacher.25. What can we learn about the Character Hero? A. It’s open to people of all ages and all walks. B. It’s the most-viewed TV programs in China. C. It aims to spread Chinese culture to the world. D. It draws great public attention across the country. 26. Why are Chinese people forgetting how to write the characters? A. Chinese people don’t refer to dictionaries very often. B. Chinese people no longer use brush pens or practice calligraphy. C. Chinese people are using the Latin alphabet instead of the characters. D. Chinese people needn’t write by hand as often with the help of technology. 27. According to Shen Bin, being able to write characters by hand is_________. A. necessary for adults to survive in China B. a requirement made by the Education Ministry C. helpful to keep Chinese tradition and culture alive D. an ability to be developed only when you are students 28. Where does this text probably come from? A. A news report. B. A science report. C. An advertisement. D. Children’s literature.

D One of the keys to being successful is persistence(坚持).Once you have determined exactly what you want to achieve, you must take active action in order to succeed. One of the things you'll notice on your journey towards your goal are roadblocks. That is, you will come across obstacles(障碍) to discourage your progress. Actually, they are a part of life. Everyone would have every success they ever wanted if there were no obstacles. Your job is to be persistent and work through those obstacles. If you find little or no obstacles along the way, chances are that you are not really challenging yourself. And when you do reach your goal, you won't experience the feeling of "sweet success". Make your goal a challenging one! If you take the time to study any successful person, you will learn that the vast majority of them have had more "failures" than they have had "successes". This is because successful people are persistent; the more they stumble(绊倒)and fall, the more they get right back up and get going again. On the other hand, people that don't get back up and try again, never reach success. For example, Walt Disney was turned down 302 times before he got financing for his dream of creating the "Happiest Place on Earth". Today, due to his persistence, millions of people have shared "the joy of Disney". Having known these facts, keep in mind that you must constantly reevaluate(再评估)your circumstances and the approach you are using to reach your goal. There is no sense in being persistent at something that you are doing incorrectly! Sometimes you have to modify(修改)your approach along the way. Every time you do something you learn from it, and therefore find a better way to do it the next time. Today is the day to begin your journey, using consistency and persistency, towards tomorrow's successes! 32.The author seems to hold the belief that . A. challenges we come across are beneficial B. obstacles will surely lead to someone’s success C. the more obstacles we have, the more discouraged we feel D. it’s rewarding to enjoy the feeling of“sweet success” 33.Which can be inferred from the text? A. Making a practical goal will ensure your success. B. Having a beautiful picture will lead to your success. C. Never giving up in face of failure may contribute to your success. D. Suffering from more failures will make you disappointed. 34.What must you reassess constantly? A. Attitudes and skills. B. Circumstances and ways. C. Roadblocks and challenges. D. Failures and successes. 35.What’s the text mainly about? A. Persistence makes for success B. Overcome obstacles C. Challenge yourself D. Failure is the mother of success 第二节(共5小题：每小题2分，满分10分) 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的选项，选项中有两项为多余选项。 Getting to Now: How to Beat the Procrastination Habit I am a procrastinator(拖拉者). I always have been. I've tried all sorts of things to beat the habit. Here are some techniques I've been using to try to force myself to get to now: Set aside blocks of time to do things. When I was talking with my wellness coach earlier this year, she asked me why I didn't exercise more often. “　36　,” I said. “Something always comes up.” She wasn’t impressed. “J.D.,” she said, “You have to make time. Make an appointment with yourself to run or to go for a bike ride.” The same principle applies to other things you might procrastinate. 37　. Often I’ll be sitting on the back porch reading a book, and it will occur to me that some chore needs to be done — mending the fence, for example. “__38　,” I tell myself. Wrong! What usually happens is that I forget to write it down, and even if I do, I just look at the list and procrastinate for weeks on end. The best move is to actually do the chore when I think of it. (Assuming, of course, that I have the time at that moment, which I usually do.) Use a timer to bring you back to reality. Part of the reason I procrastinate is that I'm a day dreamer. 　39　. One way to keep on track is to use a timer. I use the Ultrak Jumbo Countdown Timer, but not as often as I should. I set it for 48 minutes. When it goes off, 　40　: Am I doing what I'm supposed to be doing? Do not multitask. I often start many things at once, but I never actually do any of them. In order for me to get something done, I need to focus my attention on it. Trying to do several things at once is a sure way to be sure they'll all be unfinished tomorrow. A. I’m always lost in thought B. it brings me back to reality C. If it comes to mind, then do it D. I don’t have the time E. it serves as an instant reality check F. Do it right away if you are asked to do something G. I need to write that down so I can remember it 第三部分:英语知识运用(共三节，满分55分) 第一节：完形填空(共20小题;每小题1.5分，满分30分) 阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中，选出可以填入空白处的选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。 When my son, Justin, was four, he found a caterpillar (毛虫) and put it in a jar(罐子).
