I have tried never to let my profession stand in the way of being a good parent. I no longer consider myself the center of the universe. I show up. I listen. I try to laugh. I am a good friend to my husband. I have tried to make marriage vows(誓约) mean what they say. I am a good friend to my friends, and they to me. Without them, there would be nothing to say to you today. So here's what I wanted to tell you today: Get a life. A real life, not a desire of the next promotion(提升), the bigger paycheck, the larger house. Get a life in which you are not alone. Find people you love, and who love you. And remember that love is not leisure(空闲), it is work. Pick up the phone. Send an e-mail. Write a letter. And realize that life is the best thing and that you have no business taking it for granted. It is so easy to waste our lives, our days, our hours, our minutes. It is so easy to exist instead of to live. I learned to live many years ago. Something really, really bad happened to me, something that changed my life in ways that, if I had my choice, it would never have been changed at all. And what I learned from it is what, today, seems to be the hardest lesson of all. I learned to love the journey, not the destination. I learned to look at all the good in the world and try to give some of it back because I believed in it, completely and totally. And I tried to do that, in part, by telling others what I had learned. By telling them this: Read in the backyard with the sun on your face. Learn to be happy. And think of life as a deadly illness, because if you do, you will live it with joy and passion as it ought to be lived.16. The best title of this passage probably is A. Love your friends B. Live a real life C. Don't waste time D. Be a good mother and wife17. How did the author form her view of life? A. By working and social experience. B. Learning from her friends. C. Through an unfortunate experience. D. Because of her children and husband. 18. The underlined sentence "It is so easy to exist instead of to live" in the fifth paragraph probably has the same meaning as A. it is so easy to keep alive but not to live a real life B. it is very hard to live a real life C. it is so easy to make a living D. it is more difficult to exist than to live a happy life19. What's the author's attitude toward work? A. Do it well to serve others. B. To earn enough money to make life better. C. Try your best to get higher position and pay. D. Don't let it affect your real life.20. It can be inferred from the passage that A. the author is a success in personal life B. the author didn't try her best to work well C. the author spent all her time caring for her children D. the author likes traveling very much B On June 5, 1981 the Centers for Disease Control in Atlanta, U.S. announced the presence of a rare, infectious disease in five American homosexuals (同性恋). Soon doctors were finding similar cases all over the country and the world. The AIDS epidemic(流行病)had officially begun. By 1983 it was clear that AIDS had spread around the world. More than twenty years later, AIDS has left twenty-six million dead and another forty million infected. AIDS has become the worst medical disaster ever experienced by mankind. Hundreds of young people between the ages of 20 and 45 died each week during the early years of the U.S. AIDS. More than 600,000 cases of AIDS have been reported since 1981 in the United States, and it is estimated that there may be as many as 900,000 Americans infected with HIV. Though the rate of HIV infections continues to increase in the United States, the number of AIDS cases has fallen sharply since 1996, when antiretroviral drugs came onto the market. Unfortunately, the AIDS epidemic continues today in Africa and much of Asia, where antiretroviral treatment is not available and health care is far from enough. AIDS is the fourth leading cause of death worldwide, and the No. 1 cause of death due to infectious disease. HIV, the virus that causes AIDS, was first separated in 1983 by a team at the Pasteur Institute in Paris. That discovery made it possible to develop a test for AIDS and trace back to victims who may have died before doctors were aware of the disease. However, scientists still don't know exactly how and where AIDS started. Finding the source of AIDS could be important in developing a vaccine(疫苗) and be important in mapping the future course of the epidemic.21. It can be inferred from the passage that A. antiretroviral drugs will be obtained easily all over the world B. the best way to stop AIDS is to develop a vaccine B. scientists will soon find a way to cure AIDS D. there will be fewer AIDS cases in the world in the future22. Which areas are the most worrying places where AIDS spreads quickly? A. Africa. B. Asia. C. The United States. D. France.23. The number of AIDS cases has greatly decreased in the United States due to the fact A. a team at the Pasteur Institute in Paris succeeded in separating HIV B. some effective medicine has been invented B. scientists understand AIDS better and better. D. The rate of HIV infections continue to rise in the United States24. What's the importance of the discovery of the source of AIDS? A. It can be used to develop a test for AIDS. B. It can stop HIV forming AIDS. B. It can reduce the rate of death caused by AIDS. D. It can help develop a drug to prevent AIDS.25. When did the name of AIDS come into being? A. In 1983. B. In 1981. C. In 1996. D. In 1994.写作请根据以下的任务说明和写作要求，写一篇150词左右的英语短文。任务说明请认真阅读短文C，然后完成以下任务。1)概括短文的内容要点，该部分的词数大约60左右；2)围绕"Chasing After the Pop Stars”这一主题发表你的看法，至少包含以下内容要点，该部分的词数大约90左右； a)青少年追星的情况及原因； b)谈谈人们对追星的不同看法； c)你的态度是什么?写作要求 你可以使用实例或其他论述方法支持你的观点，也可以参照阅读材料的内容，但不要抄袭阅读材料中的句子。- 5 -
