37 . Most certainly not.

39
was the best feeling I had ever experienced.
When I try to

all around us. The feeling I get when I’m surfing
44
that water, becoming one with the
45
, is like I’m weightless.
The one thing I can
46
from surfing and not any other sport is endless challenge. You can never be the “best surfer” because the ocean
47
an too many kinds of waves that nobody can ever master. The variations of surfing styles are wonderful. Some surfers are free and flowing; others are very aggressive(活跃有力的) and
48 . All of these things attract me to surfing and make it
49
from any other sport.
I’ve
50
to tell every girl I know to do something that people don’t think girls can do. It’s part of being human to advance to new
51
, so shouldn’t it be expected that girls should step up and start
52
the limits of things boys and men used to dominate(主宰)?
There’re women
53
side by side with the President of our country, so why not side by side with the boys

the football team or out in the water surfing? Give girls a chance to

第三部分 阅读理解(共15小题;每小题2分,满分30分)
请认真阅读下列短文,从短文后各题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中,选出最佳选项。
A
Recently a professor of philosophy in the United States has written a book called Money and the Meaning of Life. He has discovered that how we deal with money in our day-to-day life has more meaning than we usually think. One of the exercises he asked his students to do is to keep a record of every penny they spend for a week. From the way they spend their money, they can see what they really value in life.
He says our relation with others often become clearly defined when money enters the picture. You might have wonderful friendship with somebody and you think that you are very good friends. But you’ll know him only when you ask to lend you some money. If he does, it brings something to the relationship that seems stranger than ever before. Or it can suddenly weaken the relationship if he doesn’t. This person may say that he has a certain feeling, but if it is not carried out in the money world, there is something less real about it.
Since money is important to us, we consider those who possess a lot of it to be very important. The author interviewed some millionaires in researching his book.
Question: What is the most surprising thing you have discovered about being rich, because you are a self-made man?
Answer: The most surprising thing is why people give me so much respect. I’m nothing. I don’t know much. All I am is rich.
People just have an idea of making more and more money, but what is it for? How much do I need for any given purposes in my life? In this book, the professor uncovered an important need in modern society; to bring back the idea that money is an instrument rather than the end. Money plays an important role in the modern world, but expecting money to give happiness may be missing the meaning of life.
( )56. According to the first paragraph, people haven’t realized __________.
A. how important money is in their day-to-day life
B. how one spends money shows what is important to him
C. that money is more important than their philosophy of life
D. that their understanding of life is more important than money
( )57. The author seems to believe that asking your friend to lend you some money __________.
A. is a good way to test your friend
B. will do harm to your friend
C. will strengthen your friendship
D. is a good way to break off your friendship
( )58. What can we learn about the millionaire from his answer in the interview?
A. He doesn’t feel that he is well educated
B. He doesn’t think he is a very important person
C. He doesn’t think being rich deserves so much attention
D. He doesn’t consider himself to be very successful
( )59. What does the professor want to explain in his book?
A. Money is an end.
B. Money is a means.
C. Money is everything.
D. Money is unimportant.
( )60. Which of the following might the author disagree?
A. Money is important in modern society.
B. The meaning of life doesn’t completely lie in money.
C. Wealth will surely bring the owner happiness.
D. Happiness is not necessarily the result of wealth.
B
In choosing a friend, one should be very careful. A good friend can help you study. You can have fun together and make each other happy. Sometimes you will meet fairweather friends. They will be with you as long as you have money or luck, but when you are down, they will run away. How do I know when I have found a good friend? I look for certain qualities (品质) of character, especially understanding, honesty and reliability (可靠).
Above all else, I look for understanding in a friend. A good friend tries to understand how another person is feeling. He is not quick to judge. Instead, he tries to learn from others. He puts himself in the other person's place, and he tries to think of ways to be helpful. He is also a good listener.
At the same time, however, a good friend is honest. He does not look for faults
in others. He notices their good points. In short, a friend will try to understand me and accept me.
Another quality of a friend is reliability. I can always depend on a good friend. If he tells me he will meet me somewhere at a certain time, I can be sure that he will be there. If I need a favor, he will do his best to help me. If I am in trouble, he will not run away from me.
There is a fourth quality that makes a friend special. A special friend is someone with whom we can have fun.We should enjoy our lives, and we would enjoy our friendship. That is why I especially like friends who are fun to be with. A good friend likes the same things I like. We share experience
and learn from each other. A good friend has a good sense of humor (幽默), too. He likes to laugh with me. That is how we share in the joy of being friends. And I know that he is looking for the same quality in me.
When I meet someone who is reliable, honest, and understanding, I know I've found a friend!
( )61. Which of the following qualities the writer thinks is the most important in choosing a
friend?
A. understanding
B. honesty.
C. reliability
D. a sense of humor.
( ) 62. If you have fairweather friends, ______ .
A. they will give you all that they have when you need help
B. you will be refused when you get into trouble
C. you will become rich
D. you can be sure that you get real friends
( )63. Good friends need to ______.
A. always point out each other's mistakes
B. be helped with money
C. understand each other's feelings
D. have money or luck
( )64. This passage mainly discuss ______ .

B. where to choose friends
C. how to get along with friends
D. the importance of having a friend

Some British and American people like to invite friends for a meal at home. But you should not be upset if your English friends don't invite you home. It doesn't mean they don't like you!
Dinner parties usually start between 7 and 8 p.m., and end at about 11. Ask your hosts what time you should arrive. It's polite to bring flowers, chocolates or a bottle of wine as a gift.
Usually the evening starts with drinks and snacks(小吃). Do you want to be more polite? Say how much you like the room, or the picture on the wall. But remember—it’s not polite to ask how much things cost.
In many families, the husband sits at one end of the table and the wife sits at the other end. They eat with their guests.
You'll probably start the meal with soup or something small, then you'll have meat or fish with vegetables, and then dessert, followed by coffee. It's polite to finish everything on your plate and to take more if you want it.
Did you enjoy the evening? Call your hosts the next day, or write them a short thank you letter. British and American people like to say “ Thank you, thank you, thank you.”all the time!

Ellen Parker was worried about her health. She could not walk very quickly and it was difficult for her to climb stairs. She was soon out of breath.
“I suppose I had better go to the doctor.” she thought.

The butcher worked out the price.
“At $4.99 a pound that will be $49.90, please. Would you like me to cut it up into smaller pieces for you?”
“Oh, I don't want to buy the meat.” Mrs Parker said.
“If you don't want to buy it,” the butcher replied angrily, “Why did you ask me to get it for you?”
“My doctor told me that I am too heavy and have to lose ten pounds. I wanted to see what ten pounds of meat looked like.”

根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填入最恰当的单词。注意:每空只填一词。
Telephone, television, radio, telegraph and the Internet all help people communicate with each other. As a result, ideas and news of events spread quickly all over the world. For example, within seconds, people can know the results of an election in another country. An international football match comes into the homes of everyone with a television set. News of a disaster such as an earthquake or a flood can bring help from distant countries within hours. Help is on the way. Because of modern technology like the satellites that travel around the world, information travels fast.
How has this speed of communication changed the world? To many people, the world has become smaller. Of course this does not mean that the world is actually physically smaller. It means that the world seems smaller. Two hundred years ago, communication between the continents took a long time. All news was carried on ships that took weeks or even months to cross the ocean. In the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, it took six weeks for news from Europe to reach America. This time difference influenced people’s actions. For example, one battle, or fight, in the War of 1812 between England and the United States could have been avoided. A peace agreement had already been signed. Peace was made in England, but the news of peace took six weeks to reach America. During these six weeks, the large and serious Battle of New Orleans was fought. Many people lost their lives after a peace treaty had been signed. In the past, communication took much more time than it does now.
There was a good reason why the world seemed so much larger than it does today.
