It was his eighth birthday. All his friends were going to come over that evening. His little sister Samantha had made him the brightest, friendship-birthday bracelet. He had heard his dad whispering to his mom the day before about “picking up the little puppy,” and had a feeling that one of his presents might be a little dog that he had been wishing for ever since he was five.So what was wrong?Oscar was sad because there was one very, very, hugely important person who was missing today — his beloved Grandma Rose. Last year she fell ill and then one day she just wasn’t there.“Grandma’s gone, but she still loves you very much,” mom explained.I miss Grandma Rose,” Oscar said. “Well, Grandma has a present for you!”A present from Grandma? How?Mom pressed play on the CD player, and Oscar heard his grandmothers voice!My dear Oscar, the recording began. Im sorry I cant be there with you today to celebrate such an exciting day, but Im with you in spirit. Im with you all the time. As your birthday present, I’d like to tell you about the day you were born, which was the very first day I met you. That was exactly eight years ago. What a tiny little thing you were back then! The doctor hardly had time to pick you up before you started to make sounds! Every doctor waits for the baby to cry, to make sure the baby is healthy, but you, Oscar, you changed the rules on them. Your mother doesn’t remember this because she was so tired, but I will never forget it. You opened your mouth, and you gave a little laugh! That’s right, you laughed! And only then did you open your mouth wider to start crying like all ff the rest of the babies in the hospital. I hope you remember this story for the rest of your life, young man,” Grandma Rose continued. “This is the beginning of your oral history! My present to you!”Oscar couldn’t believe his ears. His own Grandma Rose was telling him a story he had never heard before. A big smile grew across Oscar’s face. What a special birthday this had turned out to be!26. What was Grandma Rose doing when Oscar had his eighth birthday party?A. She was dead. B. She was lying in bed.C. She was waiting in the hospital.D. She was coming home for the party.27. To Grandma Rose, why was Oscar so special when he was born?A. He didn’t make a sound. B. He didn’t laugh but cried.C. He laughed before he started to cry.D. He cried because the doctor didn’t pick him up.28. According to the passage, which present is the most valuable to Oscar?A. The little dog. B. The bracelet.C. The recording.D. The birthday party. BMy 20-year-old daughter, Ann, living in Philadelphia, sent me a message the other day. I need socks and shampoo. She was actually asking me to prepare those things for her, but I thought she was playing a cell phone game. I decide not to be a helicopter (直升機(jī)) mother, because experience as a mother and professor has taught me how badly that can result. Instead, I prefer a more hands-off way. From the time Ann turned 16, I dont want to know her work and life schedule any longer.But that’s not what I see at Drexel University where I teach. Most of my students talk to their parents three times a day or more. One student’s mother called her son because she didn’t hear from him for a few days. The son was in the library so he whispered “hello”. The mother doubted that he was drinking, and insisted on asking him to take a picture of himself. Holding a newspaper with that day’s date, the son had to take a photo of himself and sent it to his mother in order to prove that he wasn’t telling a lie.I always think that my students should depend on themselves. I tell them that I will not check whether they miss classes and finish homework or not, because they are independent thinkers and they should take responsibility for their own choices. But their parents don’t treat them like me. I know a mother. She puts her eyes on her son too much. She hopes he will walk by the camera so that she can know what he is doing. Another mother checks her son’s credit card daily. However, I never do that. My daughters only come to me with important things when they need my decision. I think that’s because I give them space.Many parents try to find if their kids are hiding from them. But we have to learn to respect boundaries(界限), even when technology is so powerful now. So I am going to do my best not to be a helicopter parent.29. The underlined phrase “a helicopter mother” in Paragraph 1 means ________.A. a mother who treats the child as an independent being.B. a mother who pays close attention to their children.C. a mother who prefers a more hands-off way.D. a mother who gives her children space.30. What does the author think of the mother and her son in Paragraph 2?A. They trust each other.B. They respect each other.C. They care about each other.D. They are unhappy with each other.31. Why does the author mention different ways of mothering?A. To show how responsible those mothers are.B. To show that mothers should make decisions for their children. C. To show that space is needed for children to become independent. D. To show that some helicopter mothers love their children so much. 32. What’s the attitude of the author towards helicopter parents? A. Agree.B. NeutralC. DisagreeD. Unknown CHow do money problems influence our social life? Do we simply stop going out and enjoying ourselves? And, if we do stop going out, are there any other ways to party?Psychologists say that having fun with close friends and family is very important to our mental health. Last Christmas, Yorkshire Bank, UK did a survey to see how people were planning to celebrate the festive season when they had not much money to spend. They found that eight out of ten Britons preferred an invitation to a house party to a night out in a bar or club.So, the question is, how can we throw a party without spending all our money? Easy     just read our “hot tips”:Hot Tip #1      Careful planning“It’s all in the planning,” claim party experts. If you plan the number of guests and the menu with prices in mind, it won’t be expensive. Remember, in this situation, less is more-the fewer guests you invite, the lower your costs will be. Equally, if you hold the party in your own home, it’ll be even cheaper for everyone. Going to pubs or chubs will be too expensive. Also, if you buy a few candles and simple decorations, you’ll be able to create a bar scene in your own front room.Hot Tip #2      Shop intelligentlyOne of the biggest costs is the food and drink. If you shop efficiently, you will spend less money on them. In big supermarkets, you often have three for the price of two food offers. You can also pick up alcohol () quite cheaply if you look for deals. If you host a party, people wont require a three-course meal-a simple spread of crisps, olives and dips (調(diào)味醬) is enough.Hot Tip #3      Caring is sharingDon’t be scared to ask your guests to bring something. If you invite close friends, they’ll be happy to contribute. For example, you could ask someone to bring some snacks and someone else to bring cups. After all, the idea is to get your nearest and dearest together in honour of friendship and good times.So what are you waiting for? Find an excuse to celebrate and start sending out those invitations. But remember, save yourself some money, get creative and don’t do everything yourself.33. The survey was done to find out _________.A. where people could shop efficiently on Christmas B. what stopped people going out and having fun C. how people without much money celebrated ChristmasD. why Britons wanted to have a night out in a bar or club34. Yorkshire Bank surveyed 1,000 people, how many of them preferred a house party?A. 8B. 18C. 80D. 80035. According to the hot tips, what should we do for a party with less money?A. Invite as many friends as you can.B. Ask a friend to bring some snacks.C. Prepare a three-course meal.D. Find an excuse to ask for help.36. In which part of a newspaper can we probably find this article?A. Advice page.B. Shopping tips.C. Mental health.D. Medical care. D“Even though Shenzhen is a big city with a big population…you don’t have to be alone, Joe Macpherson, an outdoor lover from Wales, the United Kingdom, said.Joe came to Shenzhen five years ago. He knew that newcomers in a country might find it hard to get to know the local life. The newcomers want to meet local friends, and the local people also want to find a way to practice English. Therefore, Joe creates chances for them both. He introduces different clubs and events to people according to their interests when people turn to him for help.Whats more, Joe takes a lead in hiking activities or city walks to bring people together. Different kinds of people have joined in his activities. Some are the local Chinese. Some are expats (僑民) from different parts of the world. In the group, the commonest spoken language is English, but people can speak any language. They have fun in the group. His events are all free and anyone can join in them. The outing usually lasts for two to three hours. In addition to the outdoor social events, Joe also organizes other activities.With his friends’ help, Joe created a community in the WeChat group, Shenzhen Guide. At first, the group was created to invite outdoor lovers to join in the events he organized. Since Joe and his friends would share useful information about entertainment, events and news, the group quickly developed as friends would invite other friends to join. Joe then worked to build Shenzhen Guide into a noncommercial brand where those unfamiliar with the city could ask questions or find useful information.“I hope everybody likes Shenzhen as much as I do,” Joe said. The city is full of beauty, but there were no detailed English introductions to its beauty. This made Joe start writing guides for Shenzhen. He has already published 115 articles about Shenzhen’s parks, mountains and other beautiful places.37. Why does Joe introduce different clubs and events to people?A. To help more Chinese people find their interests. B. To attract more foreigners to take a trip to Shenzhen. C. To make more and more people like the outdoor activities.D. To create chances for locals and newcomers to communicate.38. What can we know from Paragraph 3?A. Only the local Chinese can join in the events. B. Any language is acceptable in the group. C. An event usually lasts for two to three days.D. People should spend some money joining in the events. 39. What does the fourth paragraph mainly tell us?A. How people thought of Shenzhen Guide.B. How people asked for help from Shenzhen Guide.C. The creation and development of Shenzhen Guide. D. The advantages and disadvantages of Shenzhen Guide. 40. What does the passage mainly talk about?A. Why Shenzhen is a city worth travelling to. B. Why foreigners like to study and work in Shenzhen.C. The good things a foreigner has done in Shenzhen.D. The relationship between the locals and the foreigners in Shenzhen. 第二節(jié)   閱讀填空(共 5小題;每小題1分,滿分5分)閱讀短文及文后 A E 選項(xiàng),選出可以填 .41 45 各題空白處的最佳選項(xiàng)。Do you use a computer? I have a Mac ibook G4.
