阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
A
February has long been a month of romance. With the sweet smell of roses in the air, romantic films hit cinemas and love stories fill newspapers and magazines.
On the 14th day, it is a custom for a boy to take his girlfriend out to dinner, buy her flowers and chocolates, write poems, sing to her or even spell out her name with rose petals! This is what you see on Valentine’s Day, a day named after Valentine who was a priest(神父) in the third century Rome. When the emperor decided that single men could become better soldiers than those with wives, he didn’t allow marriage.
But Valentine continued to perform marriage ceremonies for young lovers in secret. When his actions were discovered, the emperor sentenced him to death. While in prison (监狱), it is said that Valentine fell in love with the daughter of his prison guard. Before his death, he wrote her a letter, which he signed "From your Valentine", an expression that is still in use today. Valentine died for what he believed in and so he was made a Saint (圣徒), as well as becoming one of history's most romantic characters.
Nowadays, Valentine’s Day is also popular among Chinese young people. Some students are planning to make Valentine’s cards for parents, teachers and friends. Others want to hold parties at which they will exchange small gifts and eat heart-shaped cakes. The idea is to have fun and encourage people to share in the spirit of St. Valentine.

A. to take his girlfriend out to dinner
B. to buy his girlfriend flowers and chocolates
C. to make Valentine’s cards for teachers and friends
D. to spell out his girlfriend’s name with rose petals
62. Why did the emperor in Rome not allow marriage in his country?
A. Because there were few women in his country at that time.
B. Because he thought men without wives could be better soldiers.
C. Because there wasn’t enough food for so many people.
D. Because he wanted to control the birth rate.
63. Valentine was put into prison because ______.
A. he wanted to be a Saint
B. he fell in love with a girl.
C. he didn’t obey the emperor’s order
D. he didn’t want to be a soldier

One of the most exciting and attractive fields of work today is the fashion industry (时. Some of the most well-known people in this industry are the fashion designers with unbelievable financial (金融的Kingdoms. But most of the clothes that you wear have been designed by people that the world has never heard of. Although these unknown fashion designers will never make a very large amount of money as their famous workmates, most still would not think of changing their careers(事业. They are doing what they love.
If you spend hours looking through fashion magazines and like making your own clothes, a career as a fashion designer might be right for you. You do not have to go to design school to become a fashion designer, but many people who want a career in this field do. One of the most famous places to study is the Fashion Institute of Technology in New York City. It is located in the heart of the “garment” district on Eighth Avenue, also known as Fashion Avenue.
Becoming a fashion designer is not just a matter of classroom education. Students know that they cannot just leave school and start designing on their own. Many think that they need at least four years’ experience working for someone else after they graduate. The best schools encourage students to work closely with the fashion industry while they are still studying.
You need ambition (抱负) and hard work to get a career in fashion. Students often work 12 hours a day. They are encouraged to have realistic ambitions and not to expect success overnight, if ever. Success means finding a job in the fashion industry and more years of hard work.
70. What can we learn from the first paragraph?
A. Some famous fashion designers can make a lot of money.
B. Most of the clothes are designed by famous designers.
C. Most fashion designers don’t like their own jobs.
D. Unknown fashion designers can earn a large amount of money.
71. In order to have a career in fashion design, one had better ___________.
A. look through magazines
B. go to New York City
C. study in a design school
D. graduate from high school
72. The following can lead to the success of a fashion designer EXCEPT_______.
A. working with the fashion industry
B. realistic ambitions
C. hard work
D. expectation of success overnight
73. Which of the following sentences shows the writer’s opinion about learning fashion design?
A. Better late than never.
B. Experience is the best teacher.
C. Well begun is half done.
D. Seeing is believing.
74. What can be inferred from the passage?
A. To be a fashion designer, design school education is a must.
B. All famous design schools are located in New York City.
C. Design school students had better do some practice while studying.
D. All students have to work with famous designers first
D
Surrounded by Brothers
I know it is wrong to envy (羡慕) your children. But when I see my son, Tonio and his younger brother Sam going down a slide together, one’s arm around the other, I know I have missed something wonderful.
Not only did I never have a brother, but also I had no friendships like theirs. My sister was old enough to help take care of me, so she was more a mother than a playmate, and I was more a pest than a friend. A brother would have been wonderful, but it was not in the family planning.
Now I finally live with brothers, my sons, Tonio and Sam. I am watching them build the kind of relationship that I once dreamed about. They go to bed together. When one comes into our bed after a nightmare, my wife and I know that before morning his brother will follow.
Sam manages the world with more ease than his elder brother, whose frustrations often bring him to tears. With a sincere “Smile, Tonio,” Sam is the one who comforts him. Tonio, on the other hand, has stopped playing with boys at his age who don’t like playing with Sam. They are always backing each other up.
I don’t know what kind of relationship they will have when they grow up. Parents always want their children to have what they never could. I want them to have each other. So I imagine them going to the same college, marrying sisters and living on the same block.
That’s why I was so worried the day Tonio started kindergarten. I felt that I would lose something too. As we headed for school that morning, both boys seemed relaxed, as if neither had any idea that the day was going to be different, that starting then, Tonio would be leaving behind his brother, his best friend, his right arm.
Tonio’s first day was chaotic, with hundreds of children outside looking for their teachers. Before any of us could say goodbye, Tonio disappeared with his new classmates. He turned to wave and then was gone. It was so sudden. Sam even didn’t see him go. Although parents had been asked to ease the craziness of the first day by staying out of the school, I lifted Sam up and took him to Tonio’s classroom, looking for a glimpse of Tonio. Sam spotted him first.
My wife and I didn’t head back home immediately, stopping instead at a coffee shop to treat Sam to hot chocolate. We even let him eat ice-cream with his fingers. Sam was still quiet, so I asked him if he missed his brother already.
He didn’t answer. Instead he asked, “Daddy, is Tonio going to be gone forever?”
“No, Sammy,” I said, feeling happy about his sweet question. “Not forever, just until three o’clock.”
I sometimes think that the greatest thing I have ever done is to help create these brothers. And I didn’t stop with them. We had another child, and for the third time in a row, it was a boy. It wasn’t long before his brothers climbed into the crib (婴儿床) to play with him. I am surrounded by brothers.
75. What makes the author envy his sons?
A. He has no friends like Sam and Tonio.
B. He has only one brother in his family.
C. He doesn’t enjoy brotherhood as they do.
D. He doesn’t have a good relation with his sister.
76. What does the underlined word “pest” in paragraph 2 mean?
A. a bad person
B. an annoying person
C. a good partner
D. a lovely brother
77. What can we learn about the two little brothers?
A. Tonio often encouraged Sam when Sam burst into tears.
B. The two brothers went to the same kindergarten.
C. Neither of the brothers played with other children.
D. They supported each other in different ways.
78. The author was worried the day Tonio started his kindergarten, because__________.
A. Tonio might not spend so much time with Sam
B. Tonio might not do well with his study
C. he was afraid he would lose Tonio forever.
D. he wanted Tonio to have what he didn’t have
79. On the first day of the kindergarten, __________.
A. Tonio had a nice day playing with his new classmates
B. Sam was very sad because Tonio was gone forever
C. Sam was allowed to have ice-cream with fingers as usual
D. the father felt happy when he sensed Sam’s love to Tonio
80. What does the title “Surrounded by Brothers” suggest（表明）?

B. The author often plays with his sons whenever he has time.
C. Parents want their children to stay at home and play together.
D. The youngest son is always surrounded by his elder brothers.
