16、 time, there was a beautiful bird, which was very curious about hell. When she was little, her mother always told her that if she didnt master the flying skills, she would go to hell.

18、ught in this way she could go to hell and see what hell looked like. However, she spent so little time learning flying skills that one day she was caught by a little boy. The little boy gave her to his grandpa in the countryside as a gift. The old man liked her very much. He made a delicate cage and

19、 put her in it. The bird was very worried because she thought she couldnt find out what hell was like staying in this small cage. However, she couldnt escape.

Leave me alone!” Those were the last words I said to him that morning.My fri

24、ends called and invited me to go to the mall with them a few hours later. I forgot to be mad at them and I came home to find a note on the table. My mother put it where I would be sure to see it. “Dad has had an accident. Please meet us at Highland Park Hospital”.When I reached the hospital, my moth

25、er came out and told me my fathers injuries were extensive. “Your father told the driver to leave him alone and just call 911, thank God! If he had moved Daddy, theres no telling what might have happened. A broken rib(肋骨)might have pierced(穿透)a lung.”My mother may have said more, but I didnt hear. I

26、 didnt hear anything except those terrible words: Leave me alone. My dad said them to save himself from being hurt more. How much had I hurt him when I hurled those words at him earlier in the day?It was several days later that he was finally able to have a conversation. I held his hand gently, afra

27、id of hurting him.“Daddy I am so sorry”“Its okay, sweetheart. Ill be okay. ”“No,” I said, “I mean about what I said to you that day.

29、now on.28.The author was in bad mood that morning because _.A.his father had a terrible accidentB.he couldnt drive to the mall with his friends.C.his friends hadnt invited him to the cinemaD.his father didnt allow him to go out with his friends729.Why did the author say sorry to his father in the ho

32、 angry with friends at small things.DNo poem should ever be discussed or “analyzed”, until it has been read aloud by someone, teacher or student. Better still, perhaps, is the practice of reading it twice, once at the beginning of the discussion and once at the end, so the sound of the poem is the l

33、ast thing one hears of it.All discussions of poetry are, in fact, preparations for reading it aloud, and the reading of the poem is, finally, the most telling “interpretation（解释） ” of it, suggesting tone, rhythm, and meaning all at once.Hearing a poet read the work in his or her own voice, on record

34、s or on films, is obviously a special reward. But even those aids to teaching cannot replace the student and teacher reading or, best of all, reciting（背诵）it.I have come to think, in fact, that time spent reading a poem aloud is much more important than “analyzing” it, if there isnt time for both. I

35、think one of our goals as teachers of English is to have students love poetry. Poetry is “a criticism of life”, and “a heightening（提升）of life”, It is “an approach to the truth of feeling”, and it “can save your life”. It also 8deserves a place in the teaching of language and literature more central

36、than it presently occupies.I am not saying that every English teacher must teach poetry. Those who dont like it should not be forced to put that dislike on anyone else. But those, who do teach poetry must keep in mind a few things about its essential nature, about its sound as well as its sense, and

37、 they must make room in the classroom for hearing poetry as well as thinking about it.32. What is the better way to have a better understanding of a poem?A. Discussing it with others. B. Practising reading it aloud.C. Hearing the poet read out. D. Analyzing it by oneself.33. According to the author,

38、 one of the purposes of teaching English is getting students _.A. to like poetry B. to criticize lifeC. to enjoy life D. to teach poetry34. The underlined word “make room” probably means _A. to build a boothB. to provide equipmentC. to learn a certain amount of timeD. to set aside enough space35. Th

39、e passage is mainly about _.A. teaching poetry B. discussing poetryC. reading a poem D. reciting a poem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最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余选项。How to be safe when you are travelling on your own1.Be sure to arrive during daytime_36_ People looking to prey (欺骗)on tourists can

Sitting at the piano, I couldnt help recalling many 49 -times of my practicing at home and playing before my teacher and one time my teacher 50 after I played entire pieces of music wrong in front of her colleagues. I was so 51 that I could hardly s

48、ay anything. But her 52 helped ease my shame. These memories, 53 good or bad, never caused my 54 for playing the piano again.This thought then led me to think that 55 is like music, and that we all try to play different 56 in the instrument of our life. Sometimes the pitch（高音）is 57 when we play it well, but sometimes we are out of tone. However, we all continue to create our own 58 style of music. No matter what style our music is, it is 59 that we sing the songs of joy, quietness and love. Though I may never make it back to piano lessons, it doesnt
