He saw the king’s carriage just when a kind man was filling his begging bowl with uncooked rice. Pushing the man aside, he ran into the street, shouting praises of the king and the royal family. The carriage stopped and the king beckoned to the beggar. “Who are you?” he asked. “One of the most unfortunate of your people,” said the beggar. “Poverty sits on my doorstep and follows me about like a dog. I haven’t eaten since yesterday afternoon!” “Have you nothing for your king except great sorrow?” said the ruler, putting out his hand. “Give me something.” The beggar, astonished, carefully picked up 5 grains of rice from his bowl and laid them on the king’s outstretched palm. The king drove away. The beggar’s disappointment was great. He complained and cursed the king again and again for his miserliness. When he returned home in the evening he found a bag of rice on the floor. “Some generous soul has been here,” he thought and took out a handful of rice from the bag. To his astonishment, there was a small piece of gold in it. He realized then that the bag had been sent by the king. He emptied the rice on the floor, feeling sure there would be more gold pieces in it, and he was right. He found 5, one for each grain of rice he had given the king. “It is not the king who has been miserly,” thought the man, sadly. “If I had been generous and given him the whole bowl of rice, I would have been a rich man today.” 21. From the passage, we know that the king___________. A. was a kind man. B. was arrogant. C. was a miserly man. D. was very young. 22. Why did the king ask the beggar for something according to the text? A. Because he was poor than the beggar. B. Because he wanted to make the beggar even poorer. C. Because he had nothing to eat. D. Because he wanted to give something to the beggar in return. 23. The real reason why the beggar got only five gold pieces is that________. A. he complained and cursed the king again and again B. the king was only generous to rich people C. the king wanted to punish him severely D. he himself was miserly B You choose to be a winner!

One January, I officiated (主持) at two funerals for two elderly women. Both died a natural death. At the first home, the son of the deceased (已故) woman said, “If only I had sent my mother to Florida and gotten her out of this cold and snow, she would be alive today. It’s my fault that she died.” At the second home, the son said, “If only I had not insisted her going to Florida, she would be alive today. That long airplane ride was more than she could take. It is my fault.” When things don’t turn out as we would like them to, we tend to assume that had we done things differently, the story would have had a happier ending. Any time there is a death, the survivors will feel guilty. Because the course of action they took turned out bad, they believe that the opposite course, for example, keeping mother at home, would have turned out better. After all, how could it have turned out any worse? There seem to be elements involved in our readiness to feel guilty. The first lies in our belief that the world makes sense—there is a reason for everything that happens.   The second is the thought that we are the cause of what happens, especially the bad things that happen. The roots of this feeling may lie in our childhood. A baby comes to think that the world exists to meet his needs, and that he makes everything happen in it. He wakes up in the morning and calls the rest of the world to its tasks. He cries, and someone comes to attend to him. When he is hungry, people feed him, and when he is wet, people change him. Very often, we do not completely abandon that childish thought that our wishes cause things to happen. 28. What is true about the two deceased elderly women? A. They died from accidents. B. They both died of old age. C. They died due to lack of care by family members. D. They weren’t accustomed to the change in life. 29. People feel guilty for the death of their loved ones because           . A. they cannot find a better way to express their sorrow B. they don’t know that natural course of events C. they believe that it is their fault D. they don’t know things often turn out in the opposite direction 30. The underlined word “they” in Paragraph 2 probably refers to           . A. the things B. the stories     C. the opposites     D. the survivors 31. What is the main idea of this passage? A. Two sons blamed themselves for their mother’s death. B. Things don’t always go well as we expect. C. Two factors account for guilty sense. D. Baby’s wishes lead everything to happen. D Everyone knows that eating too much junk food is not good to our health. Yet, what is it about junk food that is so completely irresistible(无可抗拒的)? For one thing, it’s everywhere. From chips in fast food restaurants to candy in supermarkets, junk food always seems available. Thankfully, science is now providing new clues to help us reduce snacking. Make friends with dainty(讲究的) eaters. Studies have found that people tend to increase or reduce the amount of food they eat depending on what their companions are taking in. See happy movies… and always get the smaller bag of popcorn(爆米花). According to some experts, people eat up to 29% more popcorn if they are watching a sad or serious movie, compared to when they are watching a comedy. Viewers consumed almost 200 calories more when snacking from a large bucket, as opposed to when given a medium-sized container. Eat breakfast. Nutritionists have gone back and forth（来来回回）about the question of how much to eat in the morning, but new studies suggest that consuming a good breakfast is a must. Surveys on long-term weight-loss show that two key factors in keeping weight down are eating breakfast and exercising. Divide your food and conquer overeating. Any kind of dividing your food into portions slows down your eating. Any kind of marker makes you aware of what you’re eating and of portion size. Researchers advise reallocating（再分配）snack foods into small plastic bags. It sounds simplistic, but it works. 32. Why do people eat too much junk food though it is bad for our health? A. It’s delicious from chips to candy. B. It’s easily taken everywhere. C. Because it’s available here and there. D. It’s easily bought in fast food restaurants. 33. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage? A. People are likely to eat more food when staying with friends. B. Nutritionists have the same opinion about how much to eat in the morning. C. People prefer to snack from a large bucket. D. If people are watching a tragedy, they eat up to 29% more popcorn. 34. What will he or she do if he or she wants to lose weight? A. To eat nothing in the morning. B. To eat breakfast and exercise. C. To get up early and to go to bed late. D. To snack from a medium-size bucket. 35. What is the text mainly about the rule(s)? A. how to eat properly and healthily. B. how to make friends with dainty eaters. C. how much to eat in the morning. D. how to control overeating. 第二节 （共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分） 根据短文内容，从所给选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项多余。 Taking good notes is a time-saving skill that will help you to become a better student in several ways 36 .

As a proverb goes, “Knowledge is a treasure, but practice is the key 63 it.” Apparently, this saying tries to deliver the message 64 we ought not 65 (stop) practicing it if we 66 (true) want to master the knowledge we learn.

To begin with, human beings are forgetful beings; therefore, only when we use knowledge, make 68 (mistake), and try to use it again will we be able to remember it by our heart. Moreover, knowledge has become growingly complicated and we can seldom grasp the essence of it if we do not practice it again and again. Practicing, to sum up, 69 (be) of the greatest importance for those who are determined to learn knowledge well.

It’s reported that in China many children in mountainous areas still can’t go to school because of poverty. Last week, our class held a discussion about how to help them to go to school and live a happy childhood. Here are our suggestions. First, some old textbooks and clothes can be collected and sent to those children so that they can be reused by them. Second, it’s also very important to appeal to more people and social organizations to help and care for those poor children. As far as I’m concerned, we should save some of our pocket money and give it to those children in need. Above all, we should give them respect, never looking down upon them because they are poor. We’ll really appreciate it if you can, through the English Weekly, increase public awareness of the poor children’s living conditions and call on more people to help them. Yours sincerely, Li Hua the surrounded words honesty happily took what it by PAGE 12 _1234567890.unknown _1234567891.unknown
