War started in our house in late July with a month to go before my first day of college. It was a battle of wills over what college I was to attend. Mom wanted me to attend a famous
1
school, and I wanted to go to a small writing college. Every night for two weeks, we argued, shouted and gave
2
treatments until both sides went to bed with regrets.
It was mostly my
3
. Since my junior year of high school, I had
4
at being a nurse. I took all the science courses, and even worked as a
5
in my town’s local hospital. My
6
was to help the sick and be superwoman to the world.
Yet,
7
graduation and college neared, it all changed.Treating the sick was
8
, but not what I was meant to do for the
9
of my life. I could picture myself in hospitals, making rounds, and taking
10
, but I couldn’t picture myself happy. It wasn’t the
11
I wanted.
Then, I realized I had been creating and writing stories for as long as I could
12
. I loved it, and writing was what I had been doing as a
13
. It was going to be my career. And it had to be.
On August 1st, Mom and I sat down at the dinner table and I told her that she had every
14
to choose where to spend her money, just like I had every right to decide where I wanted to go to school. If it was her choice not to
15
any of my college education, then I would take a year off to work and earn money so I could go to the college I wanted.
Standing by my decision to be a writer had
16
my firm belief to my mom. Finally we were at
17
, and she decided to support me, which
18
the world to me.
Before that time, I had never stood up
19
my parents on any major decision. Choosing which college to attend
20
me to become a separate and complete adult. I am now finished with my first semester as a Professional Writing major and I cannot wait to see what comes next.

A
A fellow speaker from California named Geri flew to Japan, in her favorite jeans and a casual jacket, to give her first speech.Fourteen hours later, four perfectly dressed Japanese gentlemen greeted her at Narita Airport.Smiling and bowing low, they handed her their business cards.With her bag in one hand, Geri took their cards with the other.She thanked them, glanced briefly at the cards, and put them into her jeans pocket quickly.
When the five of them arrived at the hotel, they invited Geri to tea in the lobby (大厅)．While sipping tea, the gentlemen presented her with a small gift which she eagerly opened.She was thrilled with the gift and shouted excitedly, “Oh, it's beautiful！”
At this point, the four Japanese gentlemen stood up and, bowing only very slightly, said “Sayonara” and left immediately.Poor Geri was left astonished.What did she do wrong?
Everything! Her jeans were the first gaffe.Even if you're coming off a bicycle in Japan, you do not meet clients (客人) casually dressed.The second mistake was Geri's handling of their business cards rudely.In Japan, the business card is one of the most important communicative tools.It is always presented and accepted respectfully with both hands.However, Geri put their cards away much too quickly.In Japan, people use business cards as a conversation starter.You chat about each other's cards and work and do not put theirs away until they gently and respectfully place yours in safekeeping.Putting it carelessly into her jeans pocket was the ultimate disrespect.
Then, the fourth horror of horrors was that Geri should not have opened the gift in front of her clients.In a land where saving face is critical, it would be embarrassing to discover the gift they gave was not as nice as the one they received.What is worse, Geri hadn't even given them a gift!

A．excitedly

本文主要讲述了一个叫Geri的美国人来到日本，因为不了解日本的礼仪文化而做的一些不合时宜的事。
1．D 细节理解题。根据“The second mistake was Geri's handling of their business cards rudely.”可知，这是对他们的不尊敬，故选D。
2．A 推理判断题。根据倒数第二段可知这些男士认为Geri的做法极为不礼貌，已经无法忍受，所以离开了，故选A。
3．C 词义猜测题。根据“What did she do wrong？”以及第三段所有列举的都是她做错的地方可知选C。
4．C 细节理解题。根据“Putting it carelessly into her jeans pocket was the ultimate disrespect.”可知选C。
5．C 推理判断题。根据Geri的做法可知她不了解当地的礼仪，故犯下这样的错误，故选C。

Dogs wag (摇摆) their tails in different directions depending on whether they are excited and wanting to move forward or threatened and thinking of moving back, a study has found.
Researchers in Italy examined the tail wagging behaviour of 30 dogs, catching their responses to a range of stimuli (刺激物) with video cameras.To conduct the study they chose 15 male dogs and 15 female ones aged between one and six years old.The dogs were all family pets whose owners had allowed them to take part in the experiment at Bari University.The dogs were placed in a large wooden box with an opening at the front to allow them to view various stimuli.They were tested one at a time.
The researchers led by Professor Giorgio Vallortigara of the University of Trieste found that when the dogs were shown their owners—their tails wagged energetically to the right side.When they were shown an unfamiliar human they wagged to the right, but with somewhat less enthusiasm.The appearance of a cat again caused a righthand side wag, although with less intensity again.The appearance of a large unfamiliar dog, similar to a German shepherd, changed the direction of tail wagging to the left.Researchers supposed the dog was thinking of moving back.When the dogs were not shown any stimuli they tended to wag their tails to the left, suggesting they preferred company.While the changes in the tail wagging were not easily noticed without the aid of video, it was thought that the findings could help people judge the mood of dogs.Computer and video systems, for example, could be used by professional dog trainers to determine the mood of dogs that they were required to approach.
(

)39. The underlined word “they” in the last sentence refers to ________.
A．the dogs

(
)40.The purpose of doing the experiment is ________.
A．to train dogs for their owners

9．B 词句理解题。从文章最后一句的dog trainers可看出B项正确。
10．B 细节理解题。从文章第三段倒数第二句可看出B项正确。

It’s been a difficult year. My daughter, my dog and I lost our home. We’ve depended upon the kindness of others to provide temporary shelter.
41
At one point, I felt as though my daughter might be better off without me. If she were placed with a rich family, she would have a good life. I was unable to provide a good life for her. However, she never complains, although she has every right to. She went from having a beautifully decorated bedroom of her own, to having temporary shelter.
42
I dug through the change at the bottom of my purse and bought her a lollipop at the store today. She’d had her eye on it the entire time we were in line to pay for our purchase. It was an old-fashioned one that cost $1.00.
43
It was the end of the month and I only had $1.35 left to my name. However, she’d been such a good girl, and I really thought she deserved a special treat.
I reached into my purse and counted out enough for the lollipop. You would have thought I gave her the key to the magic kingdom! “Thank you, Mommy! You’re the best mommy!”
44
All at once, the cloud of despair that had hung over me lifted.
45
I was ready to continue my journey, willing to face whatever challenges may lie ahead.
A.I really couldn’t afford it.

C.I could see tears shining in her eyes.

G.She doesn’t complain that I can’t afford to give her the extra things she would love to have.

Dear Sir or Madam,
I have recently noticed the admission information of your university on the Internet. I’m writing to apply for management among all the majors offered to us Chinese students.
For one thing, I do well in English and it will be easy for me to complete the courses in your university. For another, I have been the monitor during my school years, which has promoted my organizing ability. Having organized a few school activities successfully, I’m determined to be a manager as my dream job. Therefore, my plan is to join the Students’Union and participate in some meaningful social activities to learn some advanced management experience.
I’m looking forward to hearing from you soon.
Yours Sincerely,
