Most of them managed to get along fairly well, but oneFrancis Blustering, who had been wounded and who never recovered his strength was unable to work like others. In time he became very poor. Yet he was too proud to accept anything from the people in the village. Once, these veterans held a reunion dinner in the home of Jules Grandin, who had made a good deal of money. Grandin produced a curiosity（珍玩）a large old gold coin. Each man examined it with interest as it passed around the long table. All, however, had drunk wine freely and the room was full of noisy talk, so that the gold piece was soon forgotten. Later, when Grandin remembered it and asked for it, the coin was missing.One of them suggested everyone be searched, to which all agreed, except Blustering. “You refuse, then?” asked Grandin. Blustering said with a red face, “Yes, I cannot allow it.”O(jiān)ne by one, the others turned out their pockets. When the coin failed to appear, attention was focused on poor Blustering. Under the pitying stares of his friends, he walked out and returned to his home.A few years later, Grandin made his house repaired. A workman found the gold coin, buried in dirt between planks (木板) of the floor. Hurrying to Blusterings home, Grandin apologized to him. “But why didnt you allow yourself be searched?”“Because I was a thief,” Blustering said brokenly. “For weeks we had not had enough to eat and my pockets were full of food that I had taken from the table to carry home to my wife and hungry children.”56.

He was a shy, nervous perfectionist(完美主義者. )His fear of failure kept him from classroom games that other children played with complete joy. He seldom answered questions he might be wrong. He seldom finished his work because he repeatedly checked with me to be sure he hadnt made a mistake.I tried my best to build his self-confidence. But nothing changed until midterm, when Mary Anne, a student teacher, was assigned（安排）to our classroom. She was young and pretty, and she loved children. My pupils, Donnie included, respected her. One morning, we were dealing with math problems at the blackboard. Donnie had copied the problems with painstaking neatness and filled in answers for the first row. Pleased with his progress, I left the children with Mary Anne and went for art materials. When I returned, Donnie was in tears. Hed missed the third problem. My student teacher looked at me in despair. Suddenly her face brightened. From the desk we shared, she got a container filled with pencils. Look, Donnie, she said, kneeling beside him and gently lifting the tear-stained face from his arms. “See these pencils, Donnie,” she continued. “They belong to Mrs. Lindstrom and me. See how the erasers are worn? Thats because we make mistakes too. But we erase the mistakes and try again. Thats what you must learn to do, too.” She kissed him and stood up. “Here,” she said, “Ill leave one of these pencils on your desk so youll remember that everybody makes mistakes, even teachers.” Donnie looked up with love in his eyes and just a weak smile-the first Id see on his face that year.64. The fear of being wrong made Donnie do the following EXCEPT _.A. keep away from the classroom games. B. seldom answer questions.C. seldom finish his work. D. never take exams65.

Failure is Nothing to Be Ashamed ofDNo matter who you are or where you come from, one thing is certain: you are familiar to the mosquito(蚊子), although you probably wish you werent. Mosquitoes are everywhere. They can be found all over the world, and they come in more than 2,500 species(種). Somewhere, at some time, you have surely met at least one. No one loves the mosquito. But unfortunately, the mosquito may decide who she loves. She? Yes, she. Do you know that only the female mosquito bites? Well, its true. And its not because she is unfriendly; she needs blood to reproduce. Do you know how the female mosquito decides whom to bite? She is quite selective, and she chooses her victims(獵物) carefully. First, she uses sensors to find her victim. These sensors are located on her two antennae(觸角)and her three pairs of legs. With these sensors, she tests your body moisture(濕度), body warmth, and chemical substances in your sweat. If she likes what she finds, she bites. But if you are not attractive, shell give up you for another one. The next time a mosquito bites you, just remember that you are chosen. You are special. If the mosquito likes you, she settles onto your flesh very gently, and she breaks your skin with her long nose tip. Long nose tip? Whats that? Its a kind of mouth and it sticks out just below the mosquitos eyes. It contains six sharp instruments called stylets. She thrusts all six stylets into your skin at once, and if she hits a blood pipe, shell get a full dinner in about a minute. All this usually takes place so quickly and quietly that you may not have doubted anything is happening. Why does a mosquito bite itch（癢）? The itch is not really from the bite. lts from the saliva(口水) the mosquito mixes with your blood to keep it from being blocked as she sucks up with her long nose tip. By the time the itch begins, she has gone. And then what happens? Well after her delicious dinner, the mosquito is tired. She just wants to find a place to rest. Heavy with your blood, she picks a spot on a leaf, a wall or a stone to quietly lay her eggs. Just one drop of blood will produce hundreds of eggs.67. The female mosquito looks for you because she _ A. is thirsty for your blood B. needs blood to reproduce C. loses her heart to you D. feels hungry at the time68. Only when_ does she do biting. A. she locates these sensors on her two antennae B. she finds the weather is fine C. she finds body moisture, body warmth and chemical substances D. she finds what she likes69. Which order is right for the statements according to the process of a female mosquitos biting? a. She uses her long nose tip to break your skin b. She thrusts her stylets into your skin. c. With sensors, she tests your body. d. She stops onto a part of your body gently. e. She takes in a mouthful of blood out of a pipe. A. dcabe B. abcde C. cdeab D. deabc70. It is_ that makes you itch.A. your blood B. her bite C. her suck D. her saliva第四部分：任務(wù)型閱讀（共10小題；每小題1分，滿分10分）請認(rèn)真閱讀下列短文，并根據(jù)所讀內(nèi)容在文章后表格中的空格里填入一個最恰當(dāng)?shù)膯卧~。注意：每個空格只填1個單詞。請將答案寫在答題卡上相應(yīng)題號的橫線上。Maybe you are an average student. You probably think you will never be a top student. This is not necessary so, however. Anyone can become a better student if he or she wants to. Heres how:1. Plan your time carefully. When you plan your week, you should make a list of things that you have to do. After making this list, you should make a schedule of your time. First your time for eating, sleeping, dressing, etc. then decide a good, regular time for studying. Dont forget to set aside enough time for entertainment. A weekly schedule may not solve all your problems, but it will force you to realize what is happening to your time.2. Find a good place to study. Look around the house for a good study area. Keep this space, which may be a desk or simply a corner of your room, free of everything but study materials. No games, radios, or television! When you sit down to study, concentrate on the subject. 3. Make good use of your time in class. Take advantage of class time to listen to everything the teachers say. Really listening in class means less work later. Taking notes will help you remember what the teacher says.4. Study regularly. When
