　　Ⅰ.完形填空

　　Have you ever come across this thing？When a rather dirty，poorly dressed person kneels at your feet and reaches out his hands to beg for a few coins，do you hurry to go，not knowing what to do，or do you feel sad and hurriedly __1__ some money？What should our attitude __2__ beggars be？There can be __3__ question that the world is full of terribly sad stories.It __4__ be terrible to have no idea where our next meal is going to come from.It seems __5__ not to give some money to beggars.

　　__6__，most of the world's great religions order us to be open­hearted and __7__ what we have with those luckier than ourselves.But has the world changed？Maybe what was morally right in the old days，__8__ one knew exactly who in the village had suffered misfortune and needed help，is no longer the best idea.Quite a few people will not give some money to beggars.Let us look at their __9__.

　　Firstly，some believe that many city beggars dress themselves up __10__ to look pitiable but actually make a good __11__.Giving something to beggars only encourages this sort of evil(恶行)．__12__，there is the worry that the money you give will be spent on beers，wines or drugs.Thirdly，there is the opinion __13__ there is no real excuse for begging.One might be poor，__14__ that is no reason for losing one's sense of __15__ and self­dependence.

　　Related to this is the opinion that the problem should be handled by the government __16__ ordinary people.Some people think beggars should go to the local government department and __17__ help.

　　It is hard to come to any final conclusion：there are various __18__ and we must __19__ them differently.A few coins can save a life in some situations，and even if the money is wasted，that does not take away the moral goodness of the __20__.

　　Ⅱ.阅读理解

　　A

　　Teenagers who drink alcohol are at higher risk of becoming victims of violence，a Cardiff University study has found.

　　A team from the School of Dentistry's Violence Research Group studied drinking habits in children aged 11～16 in England.They found not only a link between drink and violence but also that children who drank were more likely to be hit，even if they weren't violent themselves.

　　The researchers are now calling for measures to prevent alcohol misuse to reduce injury risk.Current policy focuses on reducing aggression but this research shows that there should be equal effort to reduce victimization.

　　More than 4,000 children were surveyed at 13 schools at four local authorities in the North，the Midlands，London，and the South.The study found that 25% of 11­year­olds were drinking monthly and 3.6% daily，with 12.8% admitting to getting drunk 3 to 5 times a year.By the age of 16,40% were drinking weekly and 6.2% were drinking every day.The research also showed 22.6% of 16­year­olds were getting drunk more than 21 times a year.

　　The study，which has just been published in the Journal of Adolescence，found a strong link between frequency of drinking and frequency of hitting other people.

　　However，children who reported drinking monthly were also three times more likely to be hit.Adolescents who drank but didn't get into fights were more likely to be hit than those who did fight.

　　Professor Jonathan Shepherd，who led the research，said a lot of previous alcohol­related violence work had focused on the offenders rather than the victims.His team is calling for more prevention work from parents and teachers in the first two years of secondary school by taking advantage of the“teachable moment”，that is，immediately after a student has missed school because of drunkenness.

　　Previous work by Professor Jonathan Shepherd has shown drinkers may be more at risk of violence because of reduced physical co­ordination，poor decision­making in threatening situations and isolation while out late at night.

　　He said，“This new study seems to be the first to show a direct link between alcohol misuse and victimization.There now needs to be much more effort put into reducing alcohol misuse in order to reduce injury.”

　　【语篇解读】 本文介绍了一项关于青少年酗酒的研究。该研究发现，酗酒的青少年更容易成为暴力的受害者。

　　22．The underlined word“aggression”in the third paragraph probably means“________”．

　　23．The research argues that more effort should be made to________.

　　A．reduce aggression

　　Finally，I entered the university.Because of my careful

　　savings，I did not have to work during the school years.Then，summer came and it was time to work harder than ever.I continued working as a waitress at night，instructed tennis camps several mornings a week and worked as a secretary for a few hours in the afternoons.I even decided to take a class at a community (社区) college.This class at the community college

　　saved me $650.It was an extremely tiring summer and made me anxious to return to my relatively easy life at the university.

　　During my second and

　　third years of undergraduate schooling，I decided to work about five hours per week in the campus (校园)admissions office answering phones.This provided a little spending money and kept me from drawing my savings

　　out.The

　　overall

　　situation

　　looked

　　hopeful

　　as

　　I approached my senior year as long as I could make as much money as I had the previous summer.I wanted to go to Israel to study for 3 weeks，but I hesitated in making this decision because it would cost me $1,600 more to get the credits in Israel.About two weeks later my mom called to tell me that I had $1,600 in the bank that I had forgotten about！One of my concerns about this trip was not only the cost，but the loss of time to make money；however，I made as much that summer in the ten weeks when I was at home as I had made during the fourteen weeks when I was at home the summer before.The way everything worked together to make this trip possible was one of the most exciting things that have ever happened to me.

　　This experience has shaped me in many important ways.The first thing that I learned was the importance of a strong work ethic (道德准则)．Working long hours did a lot to develop my character and helped me learn the value of a dollar.It also made me learn how to search for creative ways to settle difficult situations.
