For each blank, there are four choices marked A,B,C and D. You should choose the ONE that best fits into the passage. Then blacken the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.I take the firm position that parents do not owe their children a college education. If they can _31_ it, they will certainly send them to the best universities. But they need not feel guilty if they cant. If the children really want to go, theyll find a _32_. There are plenty of loans and scholarships for the bright and _33_ ones who cant afford to pay.When children grow up and want to get married, their parents do not owe them a down payment on a house. They do not have the duty to baby-sit their grandchildren. If they want to do it, it must be considered a _34_ not an obligation (责任，义务).Do parents owe their children anything? Yes, they owe them a great deal.One of their obligations is to give their children a personal respect. A child who is constantly made to feel stupid and unworthy, constantly _35_ to brighter brothers, sisters, or cousins will become so unsure, so afraid of failing that he (or she) wont try at all. Of course they should be properly corrected when they do wrong, but its often better to let children learn their mistakes by themselves _36_ . All our parents should do is to trust them, respect them, tolerate (宽容) them and give them chances to try and fail. They must learn to stand failure. When criticisms (批评) are really needed, they should be _37_ with praises, with a smile and a kiss. That is the way children learn.Parents owe their children a set of solid values around _38_ to build their lives. This means teaching them to respect the rights and opinions of others; it means being respectful to elders, to teachers, and to the law. The best way to teach such values is by _39_. A child who is lied to will lie. A child who sees no laughter and no love in the home will have difficulty laughing and loving.No child asks to be _30_. If you bring a life into the world, you owe the child something.31. A. find B. get C. afford D. receive32. A. supply B. help C. hand D. way33. A. handsome B. honest C. eager D. wealthy34. A. favor B. pleasure C. habit D. service35. A. brought B. compared C. forced D. taken36. A. now and then B. in time C. at once D. right now37. A. mixed B. satisfiedC. shared D. balanced 38.

Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A,B,C and D. You should decide on the best choice and blacken the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.Passage 1Five years ago, David Smith wore an expensive suit to work every day. “I was a clothes addict(迷),” he jokes. “I used to carry a fresh suit to work with me so I could change if my clothes got wrinkled(皱的).” Today David wears casual clothes khaki pants and a sports shirt to the office. He hardly ever wears a necktie. “Im working harder than ever,” David says, “and I need to feel comfortable.”More and more companies are allowing their office workers to wear casual clothes to work. In the United States, the changes from formal to casual office wear have been slow. In the early 1990s,many companies allowed their workers to wear casual clothes on Friday(but only on Friday).This became known as “dress-down Friday” or “casual Friday”. “What started out as an extra one-day-a-week benefit for workers has really become an everyday thing,” said business adviser Measly Jones.Why have so many companies started allowing their workers to wear casual clothes? One reason is that its easier for a company to attract new workers if it has a casual dress code. “A lot of young people dont want to dress up for work,” says the owner of a software company, “so its hard to hire people if you have a conservative dress code.” Another reason is that people seem happier and more productive when they are wearing comfortable clothes. In a study made by Levi Strauss and Company, 85 percent of employers said that casual dress has a side effect on work. Supporters of casual office wear also say that a casual dress code helps them save money. “Suits are expensive, if you have to wear one every day,” one person said. “For the same amount of money, you can buy a lot more casual clothes.”41.

Ann Jarvis from Grafton, West Virginia, had started the idea to have a day to honor mothers. She was the one who chose the second Sunday in May and also began the custom of wearing a carnation.In 1909, Mrs. Dodd from Spokane, Washington, thought of the idea of a day to honor fathers. She wanted to honor her own father, William Smart. After her mother died, he had the responsibility of raising a family of five sons and a daughter. In 1910, the first Fathers Day was observed in Spokane. Senator Margaret Chase Smith helped to established Fathers Day as a national commemorative day, in 1972.These days are set aside to show love and respect for parents. They raise their children and educate them to be responsible citizens. They give love and care.These two special days are celebrated in many different ways. On Mothers Day people wear carnations. A red one symbolizes a living mother. A white one shows that the mother is dead. Many people attend religious services to honor parents. It is also a day when people whose parents are dead visit the cemetery. On these days families get together at home, as well as in restaurants. They often have outdoor barbecues for Fathers Day. These are days of fun and good feelings and memories.46. According to the passage, which of the following about the second Sunday in May is NOT true? A. It is a day to show love to mothers. B.

The two-day event was held, as usual, at Memorial Park. Almost 100 artists showed up each day. More than 1000 locals and visitors strolled through the shady park each day, as temperatures remained in the comfortable 21°C all weekend.All kinds of arts were on display and for sale. Prices ranged from a couple of dollars to a couple of thousand dollars. Oscar, a native of Peru,was selling his beautiful paintings of the mountain village of Ayacucho, where he lives most of the year. “Every year I come to the United States to sell my paintings at about five different art shows. Then I return to my country. That is where I do all my paintings, in our beautiful mountains.” Peter is a photographer. He travels throughout the southwest US. One of his favorite areas is northeast Arizona. A Navajo woman was selling her own rug weavings at the fair. She was busy creating a rug while visitors watched. When asked how long it took , she replied that her creations usually took months.The exhibit areas were located throughout the park. Artists creations included jewelry, bird houses, gourd (葫芦) art, furniture, pottery, handmade musical instruments, music CDs and sculpture. “This was another successful year for our art fair,” said the head librarian . “The artists sold enough of their
