9、A Standard of ExcellenceMy l4-year-old son, John, and I spotted the coat almost at the same time in the secondhand clothing store. _36_ the other coats were hanging down loosely, this one looked as if it were _37_ itself up. The thick, black wool was soft and unworn. It had a black velvet collar, be

10、autiful tailoring and an _38_ price of $28. We looked at each other, saying nothing, but Johns eyes shone. Dark, woolen overcoats were popular with teenage boys, but could cost several hundred dollars new. This coat was even better, _39_ that touch of classic elegance from long ago. John tried

11、it on and turned from side to side, _40_ himself in the mirror with a(n) _41_, studied expression that soon changed into a smile. The _42_ was perfect. John wore the coat to school the next day and came home with a wide smile. “How did the kids like your coat?” I asked. “They _43_ it!” he said, care

12、fully folding it over the back of a chair and _44_ it flat. Over the next few weeks, a change came over John. _45_ replaced contrariness; _46_, reasoned discussion replaced argument. He became more mannerly and more thoughtful, eager to _47_ me. “Good dinner, Mom,” he would say every evening. One da

13、y when I suggested that he might start _48_ homework before dinner, John, who was always putting off doing stuff, said, “Youre _49_. I guess I will.” When I _50_ this incident to one of his teachers and remarked that I didnt know what caused the _51_, she said laughing, “It must be his coat!” At the

14、 library, we ran into a friend who had not seen our children for a long time, “Could this be John?” he asked, looking up to Johns new height, _52_ the style of his coat and extending his hand, one gentleman to another. John and I both know we should never _53_ a persons clothes for the real person w

15、ithin them. But there is something to be said for _54_ a standard of excellence for the world to see, for practicing standards of excellence in thought, speech, and behavior, and for _55_ what is on the inside to what is on the outside. 36. A. WhileB. UnlessC. SinceD. As 37. A. carryingB. puttingC.

16、holdingD. pushing 38. A. unreasonableB. unbelievableC. unacceptableD. unreliable39. A. developingB. indicatingC. adoptingD. bearing 40. A. eyeingB. admiringC. questioningD. measuring 41.

A. settingB. applying C. meeting D. wearing 55. A. adjustingB. comparingC. preferringD. matching DThe word hug is of uncertain

19、origin. The Oxford English Dictionary cautions against confusing it with huggeanother word of the Middle English ug, meaning “to inspire with fear or disgust”. Nevertheless, I find myself drawn to the possibility that hug does, in fact, have some connection with ug. It seems to me that at the though

20、t of a tight embrace(擁抱), fear and disgust do come to mind. So why is it that when I go over to your house for dinner, you wrap your arms around me, even though I saw you last Friday at the movies? One arm or two? Should there be space between us? Should I brush my cheek against yours? Maybe even ki

21、ss your cheek?Im willing to believe that some people really love to hug. They rush to enfold not only family and friends but also friends of friends and near strangers. They delight in applying pressure and rocking from side to side. Yet most people are just going through the motions; theyre looking

22、 for a way to say hello or goodbye. Not wanting to seem rude, I open my arms, too, submitting to the ceremony of friendship. After one particularly confusing interaction, I looked for advice from experts. Emily Yoffe, an advice columnist, offered her sympathy: “Im with you on this, but Ive become a

23、non-hugger who hugs. Recently after breakfast with a new friend, I went in to hug her goodbye, and I could see a kind of horror in her eyes, but it was too late to back off.” Thats me: The girl with the look of horror in her eyes.The Emily Post Institute, which specializes in manners, explains that

24、when greeting someone, you should look him or her in the eyes and smile, speak clearly, add a “glad to see you” and then shake hands with a firm grip, pump two or three times, and then release. The institute suggests adding a hug “if its a relative or close friend.” Nor any specific information on w

25、hat a proper hug entails. There are several hug alternatives, among them: the handshake, the cheek kiss, the wave, the arm squeeze, and the nod. Handshakes seem formal, cheek kisses un-American. Arm squeezing would be a good solution if it were not for the danger of getting pulled into something mor

26、e full-bodied. The nod, though, can be very effective when combined with a smile, especially when executed with confidence and with one hand already grasping the door handle. 67. What do the first two paragraphs indicate about “hug”?A. The word causes common disfavor. B. The behavior appears disgust

27、ing.C. The action is somewhat confusing. D. The manner is unsuitable for friends.68. About the way of embrace, the experts _.A. have a standard concept B. feel embarrassed and uneasyC. advise people to use other ways D. fail to give an explicit definition69. Whats the authors attitude towards hug?A.

28、 Cautious. B. Hesitant. C. Puzzled. D. Opposed.70. What does the passage mainly discuss?A. Specialized opinions on daily manners. B. In-depth research into hug.C. Appropriateness of daily manners. D. Important reform of greeting manners第二節(jié)（共5小題, 每小題2分, 共10分） 七選五The Making of “Tipping Point”Many of t

29、he most expensive commercials ever made are those in which a film star flashes a beautiful smile at the cameras. _71_ Their recent television advertisement, the most expensive in British history, cost ten million pounds, and it features(突出), not the rich and famous, but villagers from the mountains

30、of Argentina. The advertisement features a game of dominoes. It begins in a darkened room with several thousand dominoes(多米諾) set up on a specially-designed table. Then the falling dominoes head out of the room into the streets, causing progressively larger objects to fall. Dominoes knock over books

31、, which in turn knock bigger objects such as suitcases, tyres, and even cars. The final piece in the chain reaction is a huge tower of books. _72_ The place chosen for the commercial was Iruya, a village high up in the mountains in Argentina. _73_ The journey could take up to ten hours. Asked why th

32、is remote destination for the shoot, the director said that even though it was the most difficult location they could have picked, it was perfect. _74_ Twenty six truckloads of objects were brought in. They were all chosen to suit the town and fit in with the peoples way of life. They included 10,00

33、0 books, 400 tyres, 45 wardrobes and 6 cars. Setting the objects up took skill and patience. Some of the sequences(場景) had to be reshot 15 times, though the sequence in which six cars fell over was successfully shot in just one take. Filming in this location was not without its difficulties. Firstly

34、, being so remote, it was hard to obtain resources. The second problem was the high altitude. Iruya is situated 3000 metres above sea level and the film crew was not used to working in such conditions. _75_ Director Nicolai Fuglsig said: “Despite all the challenges, the cast was fantastic and it was

35、 a really amazing experience.” Whether or not the effort pays off is another matter entirely. A. Creating this film was no easy task. B. They drop off to show a glass of Guinness. C. Preparations for filming took well over a month.D. Not so with the famous Irish drink company Guinness. E. They neede

36、d to be arranged so they would fall over easily. F. It was also hard working with the villagers who had no experience of film-making. G. The film crew had to drive along 48 kilometres of dirt roads and cross twelve rivers. 第四部分：書面表達(dá)（共兩節(jié), 35分）Section 1假設(shè)你是紅星中學(xué)高二（1）班的學(xué)生李華，上周末和媽媽一起去給爺爺買羽絨服。請根據(jù)以下四幅圖的先后順

43、my grandpa. When we got to a big store, we saw down jackets of various colours and styles. There were so many of them that it took us quite a while to decide which one to buy. Finally, with the help of the shop assistant, we selected a black thick jacket for grandpa. Immediately, we came back home t

44、o show it to my grandpa. Seeing it, he was very happy and couldnt wait to put it on. But we were annoyed to find something was wrong with the zipper. Hurriedly, I took it back to the store and explained the problem to the shop assistant. To my satisfaction, she was very kind and helped me choose another one patiently. Standing in front of the mirror, my grandpa looked at himself in the new coat, smiling contently. Grandma also spoke highly of the coat with her thumb up and praise
