| Even though it was only October, my students were already whispering about Christmas plans. With each passing day, everyone became more 1 , waiting for the final school bell. Upon its 2 , everyone would run for their coats and go home, everyone except David. David was a small boy in ragged (破旧的) clothes. I had often wondered what kind of home life David had, and what kind of mother could send her son to school dressed so inappropriately for the cold winter months, without a coat, boots, or gloves. But something made David 3 . I can still remember he was always 4 a smile and willing to help. He always 5 after school to straighten chairs and mop the floor. We never talked much. He 6 just simply smile and ask what else he could do, then thank me for letting him stay and slowly head for home. Weeks passed and the 7 over the coming Christmas grew into restlessness until the last day of 8 before the holiday break. I smiled in relief (欣慰) as the last of them hurried out the door. Turning around, I saw David 9 standing by my desk. "I have something for you," he said and 10 from behind his back a small box. 11 it to me, he said anxiously, "Open it." I took the box from him, thanked him and slowly unwrapped (打开) it. I lifted the lid and to my 12 saw nothing. I looked at David's smiling face and back into the box and said, "The box is nice, David, but it's empty." "Oh, no, it isn't," said David. "It's full of love. My mum told me before she died that love was something you couldn't see or touch unless you know it's there." Tears filled my eyes 13 I looked at the proud dirty face that I had rarely given 14 to. After that Christmas, David and I became good friends and I never forgot the meaning 15 the little empty box set on my desk | ||||

| What makes one person more intelligent than another? What makes one person a genius, like the brilliant Albert Einstein, and another person a fool? Are people born intelligent or stupid, or is intelligence the result of where and how you live? These are very old questions and the answers to them are still not clear. We know, however, that just being born with a good mind is not enough. In some ways, the mind is like a leg or an arm muscle. It needs exercise. Mental (done with the mind) exercise is particularly important for young children. Many child psychologists (心理学家) think that parents should play with their children more often and give them problems to think about. The children are then more likely to grow up bright and intelligent. If, on the other hand, children are left alone a great deal with nothing to do, they are more likely to become dull and unintelligent. Parents should also be careful with what they say to young children. According to some psychologists, if parents are always telling a child that he or she is a fool or an idiot, then the child is more likely to keep doing silly and foolish things. So it is probably better for parents to say very positive (helpful) things to their children, such as "That was a very clever thing you did." or "You are such a smart child." |

| Mary and Peter were having a picnic with some friends near a river when Mary notice an object overhead. "Look!" she shouted to her friends. "That's a spaceship up there and it's going to land here." Frightened by the strange silver-colored spaceship, most of the young people got in their cars and drove away quickly. Peter was fond of Mary and always stayed close to her. They, more curious than frightened, watched the spaceship land and saw a door open. When nobody came out, they went to the spaceship and entered inside. Peter followed Mary into the spaceship and did not hear the door closed behind him. The temperature fell rapidly and the two young people lost consciousness. When they woke up, they were surprised to see that they were back by the river again. The spaceship had gone. Their car was nearby. "What happened?" asked Mary. Peter scratched (抓) his head, saying slowly, "Don't ask me. Perhaps we had a dream. Did you...Did you see a spaceship?" "Yes," said Mary. "And we both went into it. Then..." she looked at her wrist. "That's funny. My watch has stopped. Oh, well, come on. It's time to go home." Driving about fifty meters, they found their way blocked by a thick wall made of something like glass. They got out of the car and tried to find their way round the wall but discovered that they were inside a circular wall. It was like a mirror and prevented them from seeing through it.

| The English, as a race, are very different in many ways from all other nationalities, including their closest neighbors, the French and the Belgians. It is claimed that living on an island separated from the rest of the Europe has much to do with it. Whatever the reasons are, it may be fairly stated that the Englishman has developed many attitudes and habits which distinguish him from other nationalities. Broadly speaking, an Englishman is a quiet, shy, reserved person who is fully relaxed only among people he knows well. In the presence of strangers or foreigners he often seems restrained, even embarrassed. You have only to witness a city train any morning or evening to see the truth of this. Serious looking men and women sit reading their newspapers of having a light sleep in a corner, no one speaks. In fact, to do so would seem most unusual. An Englishman, pretending to be giving advice to overseas visitors, once suggested, "On entering a railway carriage, shake hands with all the passengers." Needless to say, he was not being serious. There is an unwritten but clearly understood code of behavior which, if broken, makes the person immediately suspected. In many parts of the world it is quite normal to show openly extremes of enthusiasm, emotion, excitement, etc., often accompanied by appropriate gestures. The Englishman is somewhat different. Of course, an Englishman feels no less deeply than any one of a different nationality, but he tends to display his feelings far less. This is reflected in his use of language. Imagine a man commenting on the great beauty of a young girl. Whereas a more emotional man might describe her as "an excellent jewel", "extremely beautiful", and "precious", the Englishman will flatly state "Oh, she's all right." An Englishman who has seen a highly successful and enjoyable film recommends it to a friend by commenting, "It's not bad you know." or on seeing very unusual scenery he might convey his pleasure by saying. "Nice, yes, very nice." The overseas visitor must not be disappointed by this apparent lack of interest and involvement. Instead, he must realize that "all right", "not bad", and"nice", very often have the sense of "first-class", "excellent", and "beautiful". This use of language of a unique style, particularly common in England is known as restrained statement. |
| 1. From the passage people can infer that the English are different from other nationalities mainly in _____. |
|
[ ] |
| A. attitudes B. characters C. habits D. all the above |
| 2. If one doesn't want to be suspected in pubic, he had better _____. |
|
[ ] |
| A. follow the English code of behavior B. shake hands with all the people he meets C. talk with others D. keep quiet |
| 3. The underlined word "restrained" in paragraph 2 most probably means _____. |
|
[ ] |
| A. friendly and kind B. polite and graceful C. afraid and frightened D. calm and controlled |
| 4. According to the passage, the Englishman _____. |
|
[ ] |
| A. has less feelings than other nationalities B. has emotions as deep as any other nationalities C. is liable to express emotion by means of language D. likes to have a joke with foreign visitors |
| 5. An Englishman's saying "all right" usually expresses the meaning of "_____". |
|
[ ] |
| A. not bad B. quite right C. not good D. very good |

| Dear Wei Hua, I'd like to tell you that I managed to achieve a full score of 120 points in Canada, where the IBT TOEFL was launched earlier this year. I decided to take the test only one month before the due date in June. You may wonder how I did it. Now let me tell you. I went over several TOEFL vocabulary books and practiced a lot of model tests on the computer. Apart from my preparations for the test, my solid language skills also led to my new TOEFL success. In 2004, I participated in the third "21st Century Cup" National High School English Speaking Competition held by China Daily as a Junior 3 student and won the top prize. Testing speaking skills is an added part of the new TOEFL test. My good performance in this test mostly resulted from my speech practice before I moved to live and study in Canada last year. To prepare for the speaking competition, my teacher asked me to make speeches in the canteen at lunch breaks. Surrounded by many students, I heard them saying, "What's wrong with that girl? Is she crazy?" I had to be brave and confident enough to stand on the stage when the day came. I also believe that Rome wasn't built in one day. To learn English well, we have to keep practicing: listening, speaking, reading and writing. Yours, Chang Mengsu [写作内容] 假设你就是这电子邮件中的Wei Hua, 你的好友Chang Mengsu在你刚进入高二时写了这个电子邮件。 今天你准备以电子邮件的形式祝贺她。以下是邮件的内容（开头和结尾已经为你写好）： 1. 以约30个词概括Chang Mengsu的成功经验； 2. 以约120个词就“新学年学英语的打算”为主题发表自己的看法，并包括如下要点： （1）你从Chang Mengsu的来信中得到什么启示； （2）谈谈你对“Practice makes perfect.”的理解。 （3）你打算在新学期如何提高听说读写能力； [写作要求] 1. 作文中可使用自己的真实打算或虚构的打算，也可以参照阅读材料的内容，但不得直接引用原文中 的句子； 2. 文中不能出现真实姓名和学校名称。 |
