A week later, she ran into a different Santa in a mall. He stopped to ask what she wanted for Christmas. Kylie was surprised and let him know: If you cant remember what I told you last week, how are you going to remember on Christmas Eve?! (-Mary Paul, Milwaukee, Wisconsin) As my son Mike and I drove to the mall, we passed a Salvation Army Santa ringing his bell. Mike, I said, theres Santa! He shook his head. Thats just some guy in a Santa suit, he said. It saddened me to think that maybe my son no longer believed in Santa, and we drove the rest of the way in silence. At the mall, we spotted another Santa greeting young believers. Suddenly, Mike took off toward him. Turning back to me, he shouted. Now, theres the real Santa! (-Michael E. Fahey, Huntley, Illinois) We immigrated to America from China when I was six. Because I was shy and didnt speak English, I had few friends. My days were spent at home with my brother. Sometimes wed help our neighbor Mr. Mueller pull weeds. One Christmas Day, there was a knock at the door. Grandma opened it, and there stood a big fellow in red with a snow-white beard, laughing, Ho, ho, ho! He handed out presents and made us laugh. I had so much fun. It was years later when I learned that our special Santa was our neighbor Mr. Mueller. (-Joanne Tang, Litchfield Park, Arizona)21.

What did Mr. Mueller do on Christmas Day？ A He stood outside our houseB He stayed with us in our homeC He continued to pull weedsDHe gave out gifts by acting as Santa B If you rent an apartment in Beijing, you also rent the landlord or landlady for at least a year. Its important you find a good match because you have to deal with them in the long term. For me, it was love at first sight with the elderly couple who owns my apartment.It was quite a tough trying to find the right apartment when I first arrived in Beijing. The apartments were either unsuitable or I find fault with the owners who looked indifferent at best and unfriendly at worst. But that all changed when the renting agents car stopped in front of a hutong house in the heart of the capital.I saw an elderly couple, in their 70s perhaps, waving to me. They were warm and weling at first glance, and when I saw them attentively hanging up the curtains in what would bee my bedroom, I was just about sold on the place and the owners!Chinese people talk about yuanfen, meaning fate that brings people together. Before I met my current landlords, I thought the concept of yuanfen was overrated. A generous landlady who liked me and wanted me to move into her apartment had used the term in reference to me. But it was this lovely couple that changed my mind about the concept.We have bee accustomed to visiting each other at home. The couples apartment is lovingly decorated, boasting a recent wedding photo of themselves taken in bridal wear. The landlord likes to smoke and sip tea, while the landlady takes great pride in her appearance. After three years, I dare say they treat me a bit like a “daughter”, despite having two grown sons, one of them close by. They give me gifts of tea or clothes, and I bring them souvenirs from my trips. A match made in heaven, indeed!24. How did the author feel about renting an apartment in Beijing?

Which one is the best title for this text?ALove at first sight BMy experience in Beijing CA lovely couple DHeaven on earth CMarathon fever is sweeping this country. In recent years, Chinas ever-growing passion for marathons has been triggered by its economic development and health-conscious middle class. A large number of marathon runners are white-collar workers, civil servants and business people that are keen on leading a healthy lifestyle. Government support, social participation and strong marketing by the sports industry have gradually led to the rapid development of the marathon industry, which is currently valued at 70 billion yuan ($10.77 billion). Due to its large participation and nationwide media report, marathons are considered by local governments an important part of marketing their cities. Thus, many cities list unique routes across local scenic spots and historical attractions, not only to boost peoples fitness, but also to promote local tourism.For many runners, marathons are a way of life. As we get older, the places and opportunities to meet new people decrease. I find that participating in marathons is a simple way to make friends, said Wu, who made many friends in the Xstop Running munity, a running club with 48,000 members established by Xtep, one of the leading distributors of sports merchandise in China.The sense of belonging and the mutual encouragement that exists within the running munity are very attractive to many people. We easily befriend one another, since we have the same goal: to keep running and never stop, Wu said. Besides, a marathon can be a great way to explore new places. For a runner who also loves traveling, marathons are a solid choice. peting in an international marathon is a chance to experience a city or a country youve never visited before, said Meng, an experienced runner from north Chinas Tianjin Municipality, who often runs in London, New York and Melbourne.Theres a unique perspective that people get running through the streets of a city, distinct ancient buildings or amazing natural settings, he explained, things that somehow just cant be seen by rushing in a car. In addition, during a race, streets are often closed off so you dont have to battle traffic.28Which word has the closest meaning to the underlined word triggered in the first paragraph？_ Amotivated Bsolved Cbattled Dincreased29Who is most likely to take part in the marathons_AJohn，a pany managerBJack，a middle-aged farmerCRose，a high school studentDMaria，a retired teacher30According to paragraph 3&4，which of the following statement is NOT true？_AA marathon can be a great way to explore new placesBThere is few traffic in the streets during a marathon raceCYou see mon sights by running through the streets of a cityDMany people are attracted to mutual encouragement of the running munity31Why do local governments support the marathons？_ABecause nationwide media coverage can make them famousBBecause they realize the benefits for their citizensCBecause local scenic spots and historical attractions can have unique routesDBecause they want to make people healthier and boost tourism D I began cycling in xx when I was a poor student. It was dangerous, sure, but cycling is the fastest, cheapest point-to-point form of transport in Melbourne. I own a car now, but thats just for transporting the baby or groceries.I hate driving. So its been quite encouraging watching the growth in cyclist numbers over the past decade. It is said that over 10,000 cyclists enter the CBD (Central Business District) each day, taking pressure off public transport. But as more people take to cycling as a way of transport, the number of cyclists seriously injured or killed keeps increasing. And that is a sign that our infrastructure (基礎(chǔ)設(shè)施) is still not good enough.Melbourne was once a dream for cyclists-flat, long, wide roads, with plenty of paths along rivers. Now, cycling can be deadly, with roads taken up by cars. I have a friend who broke her back and was lucky to escape death and others with broken bones. In my time riding, Ive been forced off the road by a truck, cut off by four-wheel drives, and told to get off the road. Drivers are a particularly rude to cyclists. And thats a sign of exactly one thing: inadequate infrastructure.We shouldnt need to be taught how to coexist in the same narrow space. Drivers and cyclists should be kept apart. Designing bike paths so riders are channelled between moving cars and parked cars is deadly. All it takes is one daydreaming driver to fling open the door and you are gone. Thats what happened to the young university student James.This year, there are to be new cycling lanes (車道) built on Glen Road, where James died in xx. But these lanes are not safe. Cyclists must still pass between two rows of cars.32. What does the underlined word “that” in Paragraph 2 refer to?A. Some people hating driving.B. More cyclists having accidents.C. More people choosing to cycle.D. Distracted driving happening a lot.33. What is the main idea of Paragraph 3?A. Many people are bad at cycling.B. There are many cars in Melbourne.C. Its dangerous to cycle in Melbourne.D. Melbourne was once very beautiful.34. Which was the major cause of James death according to the author?A. Cross carelessness.B. A drivers mistake.C. Unsafe bike paths.D. An outdated legal system.35. What is the purpose of the text?A. To stress the necessity of safe bike paths.B. To encourage readers to cycle.C. To criticize rude driving behavior.D. To tell a personal story.第二節(jié) (共5小題，每小題2分，共10分) 根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容，從短文后的選項中選出能填入空白處的最佳選項。其中有兩項是多余的。 Americans use many expressions with the word “dog”. People in the United States love their dogs and treat them well. 36 However, dogs without owners to care for them lead a different kind of life. The expression, to lead a dogs life, describes a person who has an unhappy existence.Some people say we live in a dog-eat-dog world. 37 They say that to be successful, a person has to work like a dog. This means they have to work very, very hard. Such hard work can make people dog-tired. And, the situation would be even worse if they became sick as a dog. 38 This means that every person enjoys a successful period during his or her life. To be successful, people often have to learn new skills. Yet, some people say that you can never teach an old dog new tricks. They believe that older people do not like to learn new things and will not change the way they do things. 39 People who are unkind or uncaring can be described as meaner than a junkyard dog. Junkyard dogs live in places where people throw away things they do not want. Mean dogs are often used to guard this property. They bark or attack people who try to enter the property. However, sometimes a person who appears to be mean and threatening is really not so bad. We say his bark is worse than his bite. Dog expressions are also used to describe the weather. The dog days of summer are the hottest days of the year. A rainstorm may cool the weather. But we do not want it to rain too hard. 40 A. Some people are pared to dogs in bad ways.B. Dogs are peoples loyal friends all the time.C. Still, people say every dog has its day. D. They take their dogs for walks, let them play outside and give them nice meals.E. That means many people are peting for the same things, like good jobs.F. Sometimes, morning rain can light up the day.G. We do not want it to rain cats and dogs.第三部分英語知識運用(共兩節(jié))第一節(jié) 完形填空 (共20小題；每小題1.5分，滿分30分)閱讀下面短文，從短文后各題所給的四個選項（A、B、C和D）中，選出可以填入空白處的最佳選項，并在答題卡上將該項涂黑。 The child was invited by her parents to explore the edges(邊緣) of the pond.
