　　The morning had been a disaster. My tooth was aching, and I’d been in an argument with a friend. Her words still hurt：“The trouble with you is that you won’t put yourself in my place. Can’t you see things from my point of view?” I shook my head stubbornly—and felt the ache in my tooth. I’d thought I could hold out till my dentist came back from holiday, but the pain was really unbearable. I started calling the dentists in the phone book, but no one could see me immediately. Finally, at about lunch time, I got lucky.

　　“If you come by right now,” the receptionist said, “the dentist will fit you in.”

　　I took my purse and keys and rushed to my car. But suddenly I began to doubt about the dentist. What kind of dentist would be so eager to treat someone at such short notice? Why wasn’t he as busy as the others?

　　In the dentist’s office, I sat down and looked around. I saw nothing but the bare walls and I became even more worried. The assistant noticed my nervousness and placed her warm hand over my ice-cold one.

　　When I told her my fears, she laughed and said, “Don’t worry. The dentist is very good. ”

　　“How long do I have to wait for him?” I asked impatiently.

　　“Come on, he is coming. Just lie down and relax. And enjoy the artwork,” the assistant said.

　　“The artwork?” I was puzzled.

　　The chair went back, suddenly I smiled. There was a beautiful picture, right where I could enjoy it: on the ceiling. How considerate the dentist was! At that moment, I began to understand what my friend meant by her words.

　　What a relief!

　　61. Which of the following best describes the author’s feeling that morning?

　　A. Happy.

　　B. Nervous.

　　C. Satisfied.

　　D. Upset.

　　62. What made the author begin to doubt about the dentist?

　　A. The dentist’s agreeing to treat her at very short notice.

　　B. The dentist’s being as busy as the other dentists.

　　C. The surroundings of the dentist’s office.

　　D. The laughing assistant of the dentist.

　　63. What did the author learn from her experience most probably?

　　A. Strike while the iron is hot.

　　B. Have a good word for one’s friend.

　　C. Put oneself in other’s shoes.

　　D. A friend in need is a friend indeed.

　　B

　　Imagination and fantasy can play an important role in achieving the things we fear. Children know this very well. Fred Epstein, in his book If I Make It to Five, tells a story he heard from one of his friends about Tom, a four-year-old boy with a cancer in his back bone. He came through several operations and a lot of pain by mastering his imagination.

　　Tom loved to pretend, and he particularly loved to play superheroes. Dr. Epstein explained that it was actually a brilliant way for his young mind to handle the terrifying and painful life he led.

　　The day before his third trip to the operating room, Tom was terribly afraid. “Maybe I could go as Superman,” he whispered to his mom. Hearing this, the mother hesitated for a while. She had avoided buying the expensive costume (戏装), but finally she agreed.

　　The next day Tom appeared as the powerful Superman, showing off through the hospital halls and coolly waving his hand to the people greeting him along the way. And Tom, with the strength of his fantasy, successfully made it through the operation.

　　The power of imagination need not be reserved for children only. We all have the power to use our fantasies to attempt things we never thought possible, to go through those things that seem impossible, and to achieve what we never believed we could. Just as Dr. Epstein puts it, “If you can dream it, you can do it.”

　　It doesn’t mean that you should dress as a superhero for your next job interview. But, next time you are tested in a way that seems impossible, imagine what it would take to overcome it. Become the person you need to become to win over your challenge (挑战) and do it in your mind first. So, let your imagination run wild, and dare to dream.

　　64. What do we know about Tom?

　　A. He was seriously ill

　　B. He was a dishonest boy.

　　C. He was crazy about magic.

　　D. He was Dr. Epstein’s patient.

　　65. What can be inferred about Tom’s mother?

　　A. She was a rich lady.

　　B. She wanted to get Tom through the pain.

　　C. She wanted Tom to be a superhero.

　　D. She refused Tom’s request.

　　66. In the last paragraph, you are advised ______.

　　A. to go through some difficult tests B. to wake up from your wild dreams

　　C. to become a powerful person in your mind

　　D. to wear expensive clothes for job interviews

　　67. What is the purpose of the passage?

　　A. To tell us an interesting story.

　　B. To help us make right decisions.

　　C. To advise us to care about children.

　　D. To encourage us to use our imagination.

　　C

　　For some people, music is no fun at all. About four percent of the population is what scientists call “amusic.” People who are amusic are born without the ability to recognize or reproduce musical notes (音调). Amusic people often cannot tell the difference between two songs. Amusics can only hear the difference between two notes if they are very far apart on the musical scale.

　　As a result, songs sound like noise to an amusic. Many amusics compare the sound of music to pieces of metal hitting each other. Life can be hard for amusics. Their inability to enjoy music set them apart from others. It can be difficult for other people to identify with their condition. In fact, most people cannot begin to grasp what it feels like to be amusic. Just going to a restaurant or a shopping mall can be uncomfortable or even painful. That is why many amusics intentionally stay away from places where there is music. However, this can result in withdrawal and social isolation. “I used to hate parties,” says Margaret, a seventy-year-old woman who only recently discovered that she was amusic. By studying people like Margaret, scientists are finally learning how to identify this unusual condition.

　　Scientists say that the brains of amusics are different from the brains of people who can appreciate music. The difference is complex, and it doesn’t involve defective hearing. Amusics can understand other nonmusical sounds well. They also have no problems understanding ordinary speech. Scientists compare amusics to people who just can’t see certain colors.

　　Many amusics are happy when their condition is finally diagnosed. For years, Margaret felt embarrassed about her problem with music. Now she knows that she is not alone. There is a name for her condition. That makes it easier for her to explain. “When people invite me to a concert, I just say, ‘No thanks, I’m amusic,’” says Margaret. “I just wish I had learned to say that when I was seventeen and not seventy.”

　　68. Which of the following is true of amusics?

　　A. Listening to music is far from enjoyable for them.

　　B. They love places where they are likely to hear music.

　　C. They can easily tell two different songs apart.

　　D. Their situation is well understood by musicians.

　　69. According to paragraph 3, a person with “defective hearing” is probably one who ______.

　　A. dislikes listening to speeches

　　B. can hear anything nonmusical

　　C. has a hearing problem

　　D. lacks a complex hearing system

　　70. In the last paragraph, Margaret expressed her wish that ______.

　　A. her problem with music had been diagnosed earlier

　　B. she were seventeen years old rather than seventy

　　C. her problem could be easily explained

　　D. she were able to meet other amusics

　　71. What is the passage mainly concerned with?

　　A. Amusics’ strange behaviours.

　　B. Some people’s inability to enjoy music.

　　C. Musical talent and brain structure. D. Identification and treatment of amusics.

　　D

　　Using too much water or throwing rubbish into our rivers are clear ways that humans can put our water supply in danger, but we also affect our water supply in less obvious ways. You may wonder how paving (铺砌) a road can lead to less useable fresh water. A major part of the water we use every day is groundwater. Groundwater does not come from lakes or rivers. It come from underground. The more roads and parking lots we pave, the less water can flow into the ground to become groundwater.

　　Human activity is not responsible for all water shortages (短缺). Drier climates are of course more likely to have droughts (干旱) than areas with more rainfall, but in any case, good management can help to make sure there is enough water to meet our basic needs .

　　Thinking about the way we use water every day can make a big difference, too. In the United States, a family of four can use 1.5 tons of water a day! This shows how much we depend on water to live, but there’s a lot we can do to lower the number.

　　You can take steps to save water in your home. To start with, use the same glass for your drinking water all day. Wash it only once a day. Run your dishwasher (洗碗机) only when it is full. Help your parents fix any leaks in your home. You can even help to keep our water supply clean by recycling batteries instead of throwing them away.

　　72. Which of the following is most likely to lead to less groundwater?

　　A. Using river water.

　　B. Throwing batteries away.

　　C. Paving parking lots.

　　D. Throwing rubbish into lakes.

　　73. What can be inferred from the text?

　　A. All water shortages are due to human behavior.

　　B. It takes a lot of effort to meet our water needs.

　　C. There is much we can do to reduce family size.

　　D. The average family in America makes proper use of water.

　　74. The last paragraph is intended to ______.

　　A. show us how to fix leaks at home

　　B. tell us how to run a dishwasher

　　C. prove what drinking glass is best for us

　　D. suggest what we do to save water at home

　　75. The text is mainly about ______.

　　A. why paving roads reduces our water

　　B. how much we depend on water to live

　　C. why droughts occur more in dry climates

　　D. how human activity affects our water supply

　　When friends and family heard what I was planning, they wondered if I had gone crazy. But here I was in New Mexico, working at a youth farm as a volunteer. I wanted to give back to society. The farm is one of the nonprofit (非盈利的) camps in New Mexico. Founded in 1998, it provides a free camp for the kids whose families are poor. My main responsibility was to look after them.

　　More than anything, I was excited. I had the opportunity to influence these kids’ lives. I could help them have fun. At the beginning, I couldn’t help feeling nervous. By the end of the first week, I had felt completely at ease. Each child listened to me and enjoyed the games we played. This farm was their heaven, and each child truly felt beatific.

　　Harrison was probably the most troubled child I saw all summer. He couldn’t deal with anger. As soon as I met him, it was clear that he’d never been shown kindness or patience. His temper would unexpectedly fly out of control. He refused to play games with us and hit other kids at the very start. He was always worried that I would shout at him or hit him. I told him that I would never do that. And I simply educated him to be a kind and patient boy. After Harrison’s going home, his mother wrote to tell me how differently her son reacted to others and how much gentler he had become.

　　The kid was not the only one that changed. I changed, too. I grew to appreciate my caring family. I became more patient, too. My eyes were also opened to the different situations people live in. Giving myself to show them love was the most meaningful part of my service. As the saying goes, love is, above all, the gift of oneself.
