19、分数：30.00)Passage One A 10-year-old boy decided to study judo (柔道) despite the fact that he had lost his left arm in a terrible car accident. The boy began lessons with an old Japanese judo master, and he was doing well. But he couldnt understand why, after three months of training, the master had ta

20、ught him only one move. “Sir,“ the boy finally said, “shouldnt I be learning more moves?“ “This is the only move you know, but this is the only move youll ever need to know,“ the master replied. Not quite understanding, but believing in his teacher, the boy kept training. Several months later, the m

21、aster took the boy to his first tournament (锦标赛) . Surprising himself, the boy easily won his first two matches. The third match proved to be more difficult, but after some time, his opponent became impatient and charged; the boy skillfully used his one move to win the match. Still amazed by his suc

22、cess, the boy was now in the finals. This time, his opponent was bigger, stronger, and more experienced. For a while, the boy appeared to be overmatched. Concerned that the boy might get hurt, the referee called a time-out. He was about to stop the match when the judo master intervened. “No,“ the ju

23、do master insisted, “Let him continue.“ Soon after the match resumed, his opponent made a critical mistake: he dropped his guard. Instantly, the boy used his move to pin him. The boy had won the match and the tournament. He was the champion. On the way home, the boy and his judo master reviewed ever

24、y move in each and every match. Then the boy summoned the courage to ask what was really on his mind. “Sir, how did I win the tournament with only one move?“ “You won for two reasons,“ the master answered. “First, youve almost mastered one of the most difficult throws in all of judo. Second, the onl

25、y known defense for that move is for your opponent to grab your left arm.（分数：6.00）(1).Why did the boy want to learn judo? （分数：1.00）A.He wanted to get over the accident.B.He wanted to make up for his disability.C.He wanted to exercise his right arm.D.The reason was not mentioned in the passage.(2).Wh

Yes, she still would like the pink-and-green plastic umbrella, books, long nightgown, slippers-f

30、ine. But really, there was only one thing that mattered: a Barbie Townhouse, with all the accessories. This was a surprise. Rebecca was not a Barbie girl, preferred stuffed animals to dolls, and wasnt drawn to play in a structured environment. Always a make-up-the-rules, design-my- own-world, do-it-

31、my-way kid. Maybe, I thought, the point wasnt Barbie but the house, which she could claim for herself, since wed already moved five times during her brief life. Next day, I stopped at the mall. The huge Barbie Townhouse box was there: “3 Floors of High-Styled Fun! Elevator Can Stop on All Floors!“ S

32、ome Assembly Required. Uh-oh. My track record for assembling things was miserable. Brooklyn-born, I was raised in apartment buildings in a family that didnt build things. A few years earlier, Id spent one week assembling a six-foot-tall jungle gym from a kit containing so many parts. I spent the fir

33、st four hours sorting and the last two hours trying to figure out why there were so many pieces. The day after I finished building it, as if to remind me of my limitations, a tornado (龙卷风) touched down close enough to scatter the jungle gym across an acre of field. I assembled the Barbie Townhouse o

34、n Christmas Eve. Making it level, keeping the columns from looking like theyd melted and been refrozen, and getting that elevator to work were almost more than I could manage. And building it in curse-flee silence so my daughter would continue sleeping-if, in fact, she was sleeping-added a layer of

35、challenge. By dawn I was done. Shortly thereafter, my daughter walked into the living room. Her surprise may not be real, but her delight was utterly genuine and moves me to this day, 34 years later. Rebecca had spurred me to do something I didnt think I could do. It was for her, and-like so much of

36、 the privilege of being her father-it brought me further outside myself and let me overcome doubts about my capacities. （分数：6.00）(1).In the authors eyes, his little daughter was _. （分数：1.00）A.obedientB.unstableC.originalD.stubborn(2).The author thought that his daughters choice of the Barbie Townhou

37、se _. （分数：1.00）A.was natural for a five-year-old girlB.was influenced by her life experienceC.reflected the change in her tasteD.brought her back to normal(3).For the author, assembling things _. （分数：1.00）A.was largely in his bloodB.was a challenge he enjoyedC.was always his weak pointD.was part of

38、his family education(4).Assembling the Barbie Townhouse _ （分数：1.00）A.brought out the authors potentialsB.turned out to be easier than expectedC.actually drove the author crazyD.was a bad memory for the author(5).In the last paragraph the author mainly expressed _. （分数：1.00）A.his pride in being a fat

39、herB.his gratitude to his daughterC.his concern about his capabilityD.his delight in helping his daughter(6).What can be learned about the relationship between the author and his daughter? （分数：1.00）A.They are on good terms with each other.B.They barely speak to each other.C.They are polite but cold

40、to each other.D.They keep secrets from each other.Passage Three It is all very well to blame traffic jam, the cost of petrol and the fast pace of modem life, but manners on the roads are becoming deplorable. Everybody knows that the nicest men become monsters behind the wheel. It is all very well, a

41、gain, to have a tiger in the tank, but to have one in the drivers seat is another matter. You might tolerate the odd road-hog (占道者), but nowadays the well-mannered motorist is the exception to the rule. Perhaps the situation calls for a “Be Kind to Other Drivers“ campaign, otherwise it may get compl

42、etely out of hand. Road courtesy is not only good manners, but good sense too. It takes the most good-tempered of drivers to resist the temptation to hit back when subjected to uncivilized behavior. A friendly nod or a wave of acknowledgement in response to an act of courtesy helps to create an atmo

43、sphere of goodwill and tolerance so necessary in modem traffic conditions. But such acknowledgements of courtesy are all too rare today. Many drivers nowadays dont even seem able to recognize courtesy when they see it. Contrary to general opinion, young drivers have better manners than their seniors

44、. But this is short-lived in the world of modern driving where many drivers neither expect nor give any mercy. This may be encouraged on the battlefield but is out of place on the roads. Lorry drivers say they have almost abandoned the practice of signaling cars to overtake when the road is clear, b

45、ecause many of the cars took too long to pass. They couldnt be bothered to select a lower gear. The car drivers, after overtaking, slowed down again and hogged the road. Again, a motoring magazine has recently drawn attention to the increasing number of drivers who never wait for gaps. “They manufac

46、ture them by force, using their direction indicators as a threat rather than a warning.“ Punch-ups (打群架) are quite common. It cant be long before we hear of pistols and knives being used. Driving is essentially a state of mind. However technically skilled a driver may be, he cant be an advanced moto

47、rist if he is always arrogant and aggressive.（分数：6.00）(1).The author is most concerned about _. （分数：1.00）A.traffic jamB.road mannersC.fast pace of lifeD.high cost of petrol(2).The word “deplorable“ (Para 1) most probably means _. （分数：1.00）A.more seriousB.more temptingC.disturbingD.noticeable(3).What

48、 is the main idea of Paragraph 2? （分数：1.00）A.Many drivers tend to fight back against rude behaviors.B.A little courtesy may help ease the tensions on the road.C.Goodwill and tolerance may help relieve traffic jam.D.Many drivers nowadays lack a good sense of courtesy.(4).It can be learned from Paragr

49、aph 3 that _. （分数：1.00）A.young drivers are more aggressiveB.young drivers would soon lose their good mannersC.elder drivers are more cautiousD.elder drivers should improve their driving skills(5).An example of good manners on the roads is _. （分数：1.00）A.signaling cars to overtakeB.manufacturing a gapC.selecting a lower gearD.using the direction indicator(6).According to the author, a good driver should _.（分数：1
