I said I felt that really was a coincidence because my next-door neighbor had gone to Sacramento last summer and had 28 the house next to my brother’s house. For a moment, we stared at each other, but we did not say anything.
“Would your friend’s name happen to be Roland Kirkwood?”I asked finally. He 29 and said,揧es. Would your brotherd’s name happen to be Dr Rey Hunter??It was my 30 to laugh. o“Yes.” I replied.

第二部分:阅读(共两节,满分50分)
第一节:阅读理解(共20小题;每小题2分,满分40分)根据短文内容,从每题所给的四个选项(A,B,C和D)中,选出最佳选项,并在答题卡上将项涂黑。About a year ago, I went to stay at a Detroit hotel. I didn’t want to carry too much money with me, so I asked the desk clerk to put a hundred -dollar bill in the safe for me. The next morning, however, the clerk said he knew nothing about my money. I didn’t have any proof that I had given the man the money. There was nothing I could do but go to the nearest lawyer.
The lawyer advised me to return to the hotel with him and give another hundred-dollar bill to the clerk. So we did. An hour later, I went back to the desk and asked for my money. Since I had the lawyer as an eyewitness to the second hundred-dollar bill, the clerk could not say he knew nothing about it.
Another hour later, I put the second part of the lawyer’s plan into action. This time both the lawyer and I went to the hotel to ask for the hundred-dollar bill once again, and when the clerk insisted he had already given it to me, I said it was not true. The lawyer said to him, "I saw this gentleman give you a hundred-dollar bill. If you don’t return it immediately, I’ll be forced to call the police. "The clerk realized he had been cheated, so he gave me back the first hundred-dollar bill. “I don’t know how to thank you enough for getting my money back,” I said to the lawyer. And what do you suppose he answered? He said, “Oh, don’t thank me. That will be a hundred dollars, please.” 31. What do you think a “safe” is?
A. A box to put money or other valuables in B. A desk at the checking counter
C. A room in which guests’ money is kept D. A hotel to stay in

A. the lawyer had seen everything B. he was afraid of going to prison

What do astronauts eat in space, and why? How did astronaut food come into being? How do astronauts preserve food for long periods of time in space? NASA(the National Aeronautics and Space Administration)(美国国家航空航天局)has been researching food for space travel since the 1960’s to find the best way of keeping astronauts from going hungry.
The research could date from an accident that took place on the first manned Gemini mission in 1965. astronaut John Young managed to sneak(偷偷地拿)a corned beef sandwich onto the Geminni Ⅲ capsule to eat during its orbit around Earth. To Young’s surprise, the sandwich plan did not go as expected; instead the sandwich began to break apart and scatter(散开)through the Geminni Ⅲcapsule. This could have resulted in disaster, since a small piece of food could have stuck in the air vents(通风孔)and other equipment. The sandwich was stuffed into a pocket to avoid the further mess inside the small space capsule This incident caused NASA to enforce strict rules on what types of food can be taken into space.
Space food has come a long way since then. During the Gemini period, the astronauts mostly ate cubed, compressed foods(压缩食品)high in calories and lightweight.
NASA expects a long shelf life for space food. The majority of food taken into space has been dried out or heat-treated. These process and use of sodium(钠), make the food taken into space last longer. Research is ongoing into space food to seek out healthier ways to preserve it. Too much sodium is unhealthy, and can badly change the taste of some foods.
What happened to John Young in the Geminni Ⅲ capsule?
A. His sandwich went bad as expected
B. He couldn’t eat the sandwich he had bought
C. His sandwich caused trouble to some equipment
D. He filled his pocket with the sandwich.
40. Why has NASA set up strict rules on the space since the 1960’s?
A. To protect the astronauts’ safety
B. To provide enough food for astronauts
C. To limit how much junk food astronauts eat
D. To make it easy for astronauts to get enough nutrition
41. The majority of the space food is dried out or heat-treated in order to _________.
A. keep astronauts healthy B. keep it from breaking apart
C. change its taste D. make it last longer
42. What is the text mainly about?
A. How to make space food B. The history of space food
C. A food incident in the Gemini capsule D. The process of making space food
D
If you know the following fact, you’ll understand why many people suffer from foot problems. The average person walks the equivalent of three times around the Earth in a lifetime. That is enormous wear and tear on the 26 bones, 33 joints and more than 100 muscles that make up the foot.
In a recent survey for the American Podiatric Medical Association, 53 percent of respondents reported foot pain so severe that it affected their daily function. On average, people develop pain in their 60s, but it can start as early as the 20s and 30s. And usually women give care to their feet while men don’t.
“A lot of people think foot pain is part of the aging process and accept it, and walk with pain,” said Dr Andrew Shapiro. Though some foot problems are inevitable, their progress can be slowed.
The following questions will help you assess whether you should take more preventive action as you age. Do you have flat feet or high arches(足弓)? Either puts feet at risk. Shoes that support the arch and heel can help flat feet. People with high arches should look for roomy shoes and softer padding(衬垫) to absorb the shock. Proper exercises also strengthen muscles, supporting the foot.
Do your shoes fit? In the survey, more than 34 percent of men said they could not remember the last time their feet were measured. 20 percent of women said that once a week they wore shoes that hurt, and 8 percent wore painful shoes daily. Feet flatten and lengthen with age, so if you still stick to the shoe size you wore at the age of 21, get your feet measured.
Do you walk? Putting more mileage(里程) on your feet is the best way to exercise the muscles and keep them healthy.
. The underlined phrase “wear and tear” in Paragraph 1 probably means _____.
A. a surprising experience B. an unimaginable distance
C. damage due to continuous use D. a contribution to the feet
44. What do we know from the passage?
A. The number of men and women who have foot problems is similar.
B. Walking as little as possible can protect your feet from pain.
C. More than half of the respondents have serious foot problems.
D. 53% of people develop foot pain in their 60s.
45. Which of the following statements best explains foot pain?
A. Not all of it can be avoided. B. People can’t slow its process.
C. Walking more will stop foot pain. D. Preventive actions can’t work well.
46. If your feet are 26 cm long at 23, what is the probable length of your feet when you are 43?
A. 26.2 cm B. 25.2 cm C. 26 cm D. 25 cm

My daughter recently asked me what a travel agency does. There is one located on our street and it has just been completely rebuilt. I told her that they helped people book their trips and vacations. “Why haven’t we ever been there?” she wanted to know. “Because we do everything ourselves online these days” I explained. “But why do it yourself if other people want to do it for you?” she wondered out loud.
The answer is that the travel agency makes a little bit of money on each ticket you book through them. If you book your ticket yourself online, you save that money. Saving money sounds great except that when you think about it you typically spend three evenings comparing prices to end up saving $30 on a $300 trip. All those $30 discounts add up of course so I guess we should be happy with that.
Consider books for a moment. Buying your book at Amazon saves you maybe 30% to 40% on each book. Add to that the convenience of shopping from home and getting the package delivered to your home address. So far so good. Unfortunately, that does mean you spend too much time browsing Amazon. com while you could do something fun instead. Like maybe reading an actual book?
Then the package arrives and you aren’t home and end up having to pick it up at the local post-office. All in all I wonder how much time I end up investing in the whole process. Time sounds free, but to most of us, it is more valuable than money.
The Internet Economy promised to get rid of the middle-men and we loved it. Somehow, I’m starting to get the feeling that we ourselves ended up doing the work of that middle-men we were so eager to get rid of.
In any project you can always pick two of these: fast, cheap or good. We seem to have focused a lot on ‘cheap’ and ‘good’ but the extra time we need to invest to also keep it ‘fast’ comes out of our own pockets.
You can always make more money but you can never make more time.
47. What is the purpose of paragraph 1 ?
A. It mainly shows the curiosity of the author’s daughter.
B. It indicates that the Internet has influenced our daily life.
C. It tells us the importance of a travel agency.
D. It shows why people need a travel agency.
48. What can be inferred from paragraph 2 ?
A. We should be satisfied with $30 that we have saved because it is worthwhile.
B. $30 that we have saved is too little, so we can’t be happy with it.
C. We should feel regretful although $30 is worth the time we have spent.
D. It’s hard for us to be happy with $30 because we have wasted a lot of time.
49 What’s the author’s attitude towards the Internet Economy?
A. Positive B. Indifferent C. Neutral D. Critical
50. What’s the best title for the passage?
A. The convenience of the Internet Economy.
B. How to save time in the Internet Economy.
C. The hidden cost of the Internet Economy.
D. How to save money in the Internet Economy.

【1】A hiker in California got trapped for days as he walked on a mountain trail. It is believed he was looking for shade and lost his footing (失足跌倒), getting stuck. He was discovered by a dog and his owner who happened to be passing by on their routine walk. Ramon Llamas and his dog, Mole, often go on walks, and the 1-year-old dog likes to explore the area when he is on hikes with his owner.
【2】Recently, the two had been out on their customary walk and the dog suddenly began crying. Mole pulled Llamas over to the spot. At first Llamas thought his dog had discovered a wild animal and he asked others in the area to call 911. However, it was no wild animal appearing out of the rocks. Llamas discovered there was a man trapped.
【3】According to Yahoo! News, the hiker, identified only as 44-year-old “Paul” in media reports, was severely dehydrated (脱水的). He had been trapped in the rocks on Mount Rubidoux for somewhere between four and six days. According to reports, the man was not sure exactly how long he had been trapped.
【4】Reportedly, the man was trapped in a hidden location in the rocks about 100 feet from the main trail. Due to the rocks, no one could see or hear him. Paul asked Llamas for water and said, “Please don’t leave me.” According to media reports he was very dehydrated and hardly conscious. Emergency services were called and the Riverside Fire Department came to the mountain and helped rescue the man. Paul is reportedly recovering in a local hospital. He has said he wants to thank Llamas and Mole for finding him, which ultimately saved his life. His doctors believe he will be OK and will make a full recovery.

Fast food
Dear friends,
Nowadays, fast food is becoming more and more popular among children and teenagers. I think there are several reasons for its popularity.
First, it’s very convenient and can save a lot of time. You can go into a fast restaurant to order your food and it is ready in no time. Besides, you can take it away or eat there. What’s more, it offers excellent service and tasty food.
However, fast food is not good for people’s health, especially children. There is too much fat in the food and you can’t get enough fresh vegetables. Also the food is very expensive, which may cost you much money.
We are what we eat. Therefore, it’s very important for us to form healthy eating habits and eat fast food as little as possible. It’s only a choice when you are really in a hurry.
That’s all. Thank you! (132词)
