　　Camp memories last forever! We make sure they are unforgettable!

　　Shadow Ridge Summer Camps offer so many exciting things for campers to do.Unlike other camp programs that include horses as a small part of their program, at Shadow Ridge horses are the program! We are 100% horse from stable (马厩) management, nature walks, and track rides to bedroom furnishings.

　　Horses help us achieve many of our aims.Girls can learn to develop responsibility, self­confidence and personal connections in their lives while having fun.Using horses as a wonderful tool for education, our camps offer an interesting place for growth and learning.

　　Imagine each girl having her very own horse to spend time with and a best friend to love and take care of.Each camper is responsible for a horse for the week.Our riding program provides a lot of riding and lesson time.Campers will learn how to take care of the horse and the tack (马具), as well as how to ride.Days are filled with horse­related activities to strengthen the connection between each girl and horse, as the girls learn to work safely around the horses.

　　At Shadow Ridge we try to create a loving, caring family atmosphere for our campers.We have “The Bunkhouse”(4 girls), “The Wranglers Roost”(4 girls), and “The Hideout”(2 girls) in our comfortable 177­year­old farm house.All meals are home cooked, offering delicious and healthy food for the hungry rider.

　　Our excellent activities create personalized memories of your child's vacation.Each child will receive a camp T­shirt and a photo album (usually 300－500 pictures) of their stay at camp.

　　Our camps are offered during June, July and August 2011, for small groups of girls aged 13－16 years, not only from Canada but also other parts of the world.

　　B

　　I first went to Harrow in the summer term.The school had the biggest swimming pool I had ever seen.It was a good joke to come up behind a naked boy, and push him into the pool.I made quite a habit of this with boys of my own size or less.

　　One day I saw a boy wrapped in a towel on the side of the pool.He was no bigger than I was, so I thought him a fair game.Coming secretly behind, I pushed him in, holding on to his towel so that it would not get wet, I was surprised to see an angry face come out from the water, and a being of great strength making its way by fierce strokes (猛力地划) to the shore.I fled, but in vain.He overtook me, seized me violently, and threw me into the deepest part of the pool.I soon climbed out on the other side, and found myself surrounded by a crowd of younger boys.“Do you know what you have done？” they said, “It's Amery; he is in Grade Six.He is champion at gym; he has got his football honor.”

　　I was frightened and felt ashamed.How could I tell his position when he was wrapped in a bath towel and so small.He didn't seem pleased at all, so I added in a most brilliant word, “My father,

　　who is a great man, is also small.” At this he laughed, and after some general words about my rude behavior and how I had better be careful in the future, signified the incident was closed.

　　31．The writer thought Amery “a fair game” because the boy ________.

　　A．looked like an animal

　　B．was fond of games

　　C．was of similar size

　　D．was good at sports

　　32．The writer felt “ashamed” because ________.

　　A．he was laughed at by other boys

　　B．Amery turned out to be in the same grade

　　C．he pushed Amery hard and hurt him

　　D．he played a joke on an outstanding athlete

　　33．By saying “My father, who is a great man, is also small”， the writer

　　________.

　　A．tried to please Amery

　　B．challenged Amery

　　C．threatened Amery

　　D．admired his father

　　34．Which of the following statements is TRUE?

　　A．The writer could run faster than Amery.

　　B．The writer liked playing jokes on boys of all sizes.

　　C．Amery was a student in Grade Four.

　　D．Amery forgave the writer for his rude behavior.

　　A．Catch hold of.

　　B．Catch up with.

　　C．Take a look at.

　　D．Shout at.

　　C

　　Are you happy? Do you remember a time when you were happy? Are you seeking happiness today?

　　Many have sought a variety of sources for their feeling of happiness.Some have put their heart and efforts into their work.Too many turned to drugs and alcohol.Meanwhile, untold numbers have looked for it in the possession of expensive cars, exotic (异国的) vacation homes and other popular “toys”．Most of their efforts have a root in one common fact: people are looking for a lasting source of happiness.

　　Unfortunately, I believe that happiness escapes from many people because they misunderstand the journey of finding it.I have heard many people say that, “I'll be happy when I get my new promotion.” or “I'll be happy when I lose that extra 20 pounds.” It is dangerous because it accepts that happiness is a “response” to having, being or doing something.

　　In life, we all experience stimulus (激励) and response.Today, some people think that an expensive car is a stimulus.Happiness is a response.A great paying job is a stimulus.Happiness is a response.This belief leaves us thinking and feeling, “I'll be happy when...”

　　It has been my finding that actually the opposite is true.I believe that happiness is a stimulus and response is what life brings to those who are truly happy.When we are happy, we tend to have more success in our work.When we are happy, we more naturally take better care of our bodies and enjoy good health.Happiness is not a response but a stimulus.

　　Happiness is a conscious choice we make in daily life.For unknown reasons to me, many choose to be upset and angry most of the time.Happiness is not something that happens to us after we get something we want—we usually get things we want after we choose to be happy.

　　36．From the second paragraph, we know to many people ________.

　　A．they are not happy when they work hard

　　B．they are not happy when they drink or take drugs

　　C．they are happy when they possess their own expensive cars

　　D．they all desire exotic vacation homes

　　37．Generally speaking, most people feel happy because ________.

　　A．they think happiness is rooted in their deep hearts

　　B．they get what they want to have

　　C．they get a great paying job

　　D．they get an expensive car

　　38．In the author's opinion, which of the following is the most important if you want to be happy?

　　A．Losing weight.

　　B．An expensive car.

　　C．Success in work.

　　D．Feeling happy.

　　39．Which of the following is TRUE according to the author?

　　A．If you want to get what you want, you first choose to be happy.

　　B．We should try to get more and then we'll be happy.

　　C．Most people today are happy.

　　D．Work is a necessary part in our daily life.

　　40．From the viewpoint of the author, happiness is ________.

　　A．based on our needs

　　B．unconditional

　　C．out of reach

　　D．limited

　　D

　　Welcome to my Message Board！

　　Subject: Slimming down classics？

　　Mr.Handsome

　　2012­2­12

　　6：34 AM Orion Books, which decides there is a market in creating cut­down classics (经典著作), is slimming down some novels by such great writers as L．Tolstoy, M．Mitchell and C．Bronte.Now, each of them has been whittled down to about 400 pages by cutting 30 to 40 pages percent of original, with words, sentences, paragraphs and, in a few cases, chapters removed.The first six shortened editions, all priced at ￡6.99 and advertised as great reads “in half the time”， will go on sale next month, with plans for 50 to 100 more to follow.The publishing house believes that modern readers will welcome the shorter versions.

　　Mr.Edwards

　　2012­2­12

　　9：40 AM Well, I'm the publisher of Orion Group.Thanks for your attention, Mr.Handsome.I must say, the idea developed from a game of “shame” in my office.Each of us was required to confess (承认) to the most embarrassing blanks in his or her reading.I admitted that I had never read Anna Karenina and tried but failed to get through Gone with the Wind several times.One of my colleagues acknowledged skipping (跳读) Jane Eyre.We realized that life is too short to read all the books you want to and we never were going to read these ones.

　　As a leading publishing house, we are trying to make classics convenient for readers but it's not as if we're withdrawing the original versions.They are still there if you want to read them.

　　Ms.Weir

　　2012­2­12

　　11：35 AM I'm the director of the online book club www.lovereading.co.uk.

　　Mr.Edwards, I think your shortened edition is a_breath_of_fresh_air.I'm guilty of never having read Anna Karenina, because it's just so long.I'd much rather read two 300­page books than one 600­page book.I am looking forward to more shortened classics！

　　Mr.Crockatt

　　2012­2­12

　　4：38 PM I'm from the London independent bookshop Corckatt & Powell.

　　In my opinion, the practice is completely ridiculous.How can you edit the classics? I'm afraid reading some of these books is hard work, and that is why you have to develop as a reader.If people don't have time to read Anna Karenina, then fine.But don't read a shortened version and kid yourself it's the real thing.

　　41.According to the passage board, Orion Books ________.

　　A．opposes the reading of original classics

　　B．is embarrassed for cutting down classics

　　C．thinks cut­down classics have a bright future

　　D．is cautious in its decision to cut down classics

　　42．In Mr.Edwards' opinion, Orion Group is shortening classics to ________.

　　A．make them easier to read

　　B．meet a large demand in the market

　　C．increase the sales of literary books

　　D．compete with their original versions

　　43．By describing the shortened classics as “a breath of fresh air”， Ms.Weir ________.

　　A．speaks highly of the cut­down classics

　　B．shows her love for original classics

　　C．feels guilty of not reading the classics

　　D．disapproves of shortening the classics

　　44．Mr.Crockatt seems to imply that

　　________.

　　A．reading the classic works is a confusing attempt

　　B．shortening the classics does harm to the original

　　C．publishing the cut­down classics is a difficult job

　　D．editing the classic works satisfies children's needs

　　45．How many classics are involved in the massage board?

　　A．Two.

　　B．Three.

　　C．Four.

　　D．Five.

　　18．nothing　根据常识，“什么都不种”就“没有收获”。此处要用代词作宾语；由at all也可知要填表否定意义的代词。

　　19．than　由better可知，应用比较连词than。

　　27．B　细节理解题。从第二段第二句得知。

　　28．D　推理判断题。从第三段的第三句话“把骑马作为一个教育的手段”可知答案。

　　29．B　细节理解题。文章没有提到露营的费用。

　　30．C　推理判断题。这篇文章是讲述骑马训练给孩子带来的好处和教育意义，所以对象应该是父母。

　　B

　　本文主要讲述了作者在游泳池边捉弄别人，把一个看上去跟自己身材差不多的同学推进了游泳池，结果却发现自己不是对方的对手。

　　31．C　细节理解题。根据第二段第二句可知选C。

　　36．C　细节理解题。由第二段可知，人们或致力于工作，或沉迷于吸食毒品和酒精，因为他们觉得这些是快乐的来源，所以A、B两项错误；许多人拥有了自己的昂贵的汽车后，他们就找到了快乐，所以C项正确。而D项与原文叙述不符，太绝对化。

　　37．B　推理判断题。由第四段可知，如今，人们都认为昂贵的轿车、高薪的工作都是一种刺激，而后才有了快乐的反馈，也就是说，他们得到了自己想要的东西，所以他们觉得快乐。所以A项的说法与之相反，C、D项则是B项的具体表现形式。

　　38．D　推理判断题。文章最后两段提到，作者认为快乐才是刺激，而之后的所得是反馈，所以，如果你觉得幸福，你就会获得更多的东西，包括工作上的更大的成功等。而A、B、C三项这些都是具体的实物，是大众认为的快乐的来源或刺激因素，而非作者的观点。故选D。

　　39．A　细节理解题。根据最后两段可知A项正确，B项正好与作者的观点相悖，C、D两项文章没有讨论到，所以不正确。

　　40．B　推理判断题。根据作者在最后三段的阐述可知，幸福是一种自主的选择，是拥有更多其他实物的起因，而这种自主选择并没有障碍，故而是无条件的。所以B项正确。

　　D

　　文章是网站留言板上看有关缩写经典著作的四个人的看法。

　　41．C　细节理解题。 从第一个信息的最后一句可知答案。

　　42．A　细节理解题。 从第二个信息最后一段的第一句话判断A正确。

　　43．A　词义猜测题。 “a breath of fresh air”意为“一缕清新的空气”，说明Ms.Weir对缩写的经典著作的高度评价。

　　44．B　推理判断题。 从最后一个信息中的ridiculous (荒谬)和最后一句话可判断Mr.Crockatt先生认为缩写经典著作对原著不好。

　　45．B　细节理解题。留言板上谈到了Anna Karenina, Gone with the Wind和Jane Eyre三本经典著作。

　　范文诵读：

　　As a senior high school student, I advise you to make a review plan which is not too hard or too easy and you'd better not stay late because it makes you tired in the day.Try to spare some time to take exercise which can make you healthy and relaxed.When you meet difficult problems, you must think about them carefully first and try to draw conclusions from them so as to get a clear understanding.Everybody knows a good mood is very important.If you can be in a good mood and get on well with your classmates, you'll find everything becomes very easy.
