The price of oil skyrocketed as the temperature dropped sharply in Maine. We were looking at a high of eight degrees that week, and I had missed three days of work so my paycheck was going to be lower than normal. I was stressed, to say the least. I shopped strategically, looking for every possible way to cut pennies so I could buy groceries and keep the house warm.My eight-year-old son didn't understand when I told him we were struggling that week. He wanted a special kind of yoghurt, but I didn't have the extra three dollars to buy it for him. It was the kind of yoghurt with a cartoon kid riding a skateboard on the front of the box, and a mere two spoonfuls in each cup. It was the kind of product that wastes a parent's money and makes me hate advertising.I felt guilty as a parent when those big eyes looked at me with confusion, as if to say, "It's just yoghurt. What's the big deal?” So I found a way. I put something back as single mothers often do. He got his yoghurt.On the way driving back from the grocery store, I noticed a homeless man holding a sign by the side of the road. My heart hurt, and I tried not to look at him. I watched people stay away from him on the street and walk by without even meeting his eyes. My son didn't seem to care much, either. I looked at the man closely then bare hands grasping a piece of cardboard, snot （鼻涕）frozen to his face, a womoul jacket. And there I was struggling because I had to buy oil and groceries. But I decided to help. I pulled over to the man and handed him a five-dollar bill.注意：1.所续写短文的词数应为150左右:2 .续写局局部为两段，每段的开头语已为你写好;.续写完成后，请用下划线标出你所使用的关键词语。Paragraph I:Seeing this, my son became confused and surprised.Paragraph 2:On that day, my son perfbmied an act that most adults wouldn't have done.A.A birthday.B.A graduation ccrcmony.C.A wedding.7 .Where does the man's cousin live now?A.In Dallas.B.In Houston.

It was easily done: Both my parents left for work before my school bus arrived on weekdays, so when it showed up at my house on that cold winter morning, 1 simply did not get on. The perfect crime!And what did I do with myself on that glorious stolen day, with no adult in charge and no limits on my activities? Did I get high? Hit the mall for a shoplifting extravaganza （狂欢）?Nope. I built a warm fire in the wood stove, prepared a bowl of popcorn, grabbed a blanket, and read. I was thrilled and transported by a bookit was Hemingway's The Sun Also Risesand I just needed to be alone with it for a little while. I ached to know what would happen to Jake Barnes and Lady Brett Ashley and Robert Cohn. I couldn't bear the thought of sitting in a classroom taking another exam when I could be traveling through Spain in （he 1920s with a bunch of expatriates （异乡客）.I spent that day lost in words. Time fell away, as the room around me turned to mist, and my roleas a daughter, sister, teenager, and studentin the world no longer had any meaning. I had accidentally come across the key to perfect happiness: I had become completely absorbed by something I loved.Looking back on it now, I can see that sonic subtle things were happening to my mind and to my life while I was in that state of absorption. Hemingway's language was quietly braiding itself into my imagination. I was downloading information about how （o create simple and elegant sentences, a good and solid plot. In other words. I was learning how to write. Without realizing it, I was hot on （he trail of my own fate. Writing now absorbs me the way reading once did and happiness is their generous side effect.21 .Why did the author skip school on that day?A.Because her parents left home early.B.Because it was a biting cold winter morning.C.Bccausc she was fascinated by a novel. D.Because she was anxious to take the exam.22 .Whal did the author think is the source of true joy?A.Reading a fiction by the fire.B.Travelling with a bunch of expatriates.C.Breaking the rules and regulations.D.Being occupied by one's passion.23 .Which can best replace the underlined phrase “braiding itself into" in (he last paragraph?A.Entering.B.Destroying.C.Mending.D.Blocking.24 .What can we infer from the passage?A.The author was tired of his roles in (he real-life.B.Writing has a horrible effect on the author's life now.C.The author skipped school when he was 8 years old.Becoming a writer is the author's childhood drcam.BEarly one morning, more than a hundred years ago, an American inventor called Elias Howe finally fell asleep. He had been working all night on the design of a sewing machine but he had run into a very difficult problem: It seemed impossible to get the thread to run around the needle without any problems.Though he was tired, Howe slept badly. He turned and turned. Then he had a dream. He dreamt that he had been caught by terrible savages whose king wanted to kill him and cat him unless he could build a perfect sewing machine. When he tried to do so, Howe ran into the same problem as before. The thread kept getting caught around the needle. The king flew into the cage and ordered his soldiers to kill Howe. They came up towards him with their spears raised. But suddenly the inventor noticed something. There was a hole in the tip of each spear. The inventor awoke from the dream, realizing that he had just found the answer to the problem. Instead of trying to get the thread to run around (he needle, he should make it run through a small hole in the center of the needle. This was (he simple idea (hat finally made Howe design and build the first really practised sewing machine.Elias Howe was not the only one in finding the answer to his problem in this way. Thomas Edison, the inventor of the electric light, said his best ideas came into him in dreams. So did the great physicist Albert Einstein. Charlotte Bronte also drew in her drcams in writing Jane Eyre.To know the value of dreams, you have to understand what happens when you arc asleep. Even then, a part of your mind is still working. This unconscious(无意识的),but still active part understands your experiences and goes to work on (he problems you have had during the day. It stores all sorts of informalion (hat you may have forgotten or never have really noliced. Il is only when you fall asleep (hat this part of the brain can send messages to the part you use when you are awake. However, the unconscious part acts in a special way. It uses strange images which the conscious part may not understand at first. This is why dreams are sometimes called ''secret messages to ourselves.25 .The problem Howe was trying to solve was.A.what kind of thread to usehow to design a needle which would not breakC.whcrc to put the needleD.how to stop (he thread from getting caught around the needle26 .Thomas Edison is spoken of because.A.he also tried to invent a sewing machinehe got some of his ideas from dreamsC.hc was one of Howe's best friendsD.he also had difficulty in falling asleep27 .Dreams arc sometimes called “secret messages to ourselvesw because.A.strange images are used to communicate ideasB.images which have no meaning are usedC.wc can never understand the real meaningD.only specially trained people can understand (hemCResearch carried out last year stressed the growing challenge facing employers in terms of managing and supporting the UK's aging workforce.Figures from the Office for National Statistics have suggested (hat the number of people aged 65 and over still working has reached 1.19 millionup 25,000 from a year ago. There were also now more people aged 50-74 in work than ever before. However, the overall trend was hiding the fact that 12% people arc forced to stop working before reaching state pension age because of ill health or disability.Nearly half a million (436,000) workers who arc within five years of state pension age have had to leave work for medical reasons, with an apparent divide between the North (worse) and South (better). Those in the lowest-paid jobs, including cleaners, leisure industry workers and people doing heavy laboring jobs, were twice as likely to stop working before retirement age, because of sickness and disability than managers or professionals.Within this, the needs of the “sandwich generation” those juggling work with caring for elderly dependents as well as children needed to be given greater priority (优先权)by employers, a white paper by insurer and health care provider concluded.Its research argued that 66% of managers think the average age of retirement in their organization will increase in the next 5 to 10 years. Yet, 36% reported being unaware of anything their organization did to attract, keep and engage older staff. Fewer (han a quarter (23%) of employees said they felt supported by their employer with their responsibilities for caring for a loved one.This was perhaps unsurprising, given that only 28% of managers said their organization had formal policies and practices in place to support these employees, argues health care distribution director Chris Horlick.28 .According to the passage, who is more likely to leave work before retirement age?A.Tom, a physician.B.Jason, a language teacher.D.Bill, a bank manager.C.Henry, a construction worker.29 .Thc present support from the employers can be best described as.30 .What is the main idea of the passage?A.Old employees are well attended in the UK.31 Aging workforce should be well supported in the UK.C.Employers show responsibilities for supporting their employees.D.UK employers arc facing challenges in supporting aging workforce.第二节（共5小题；每题2分，总分值10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最正确选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。EmpathyLast year, researchers from the University of Michigan reported that empathy, the ability to understand other people, among college students had dropped shaiply over the past 10 years.31 .Today, people spend more time alone and are less likely to join groups and clubs.Jennifer Freed, a co-director of a teen program, has another explanation. Turn on the TV, and you're showered with news and reality shows ftill of people fighting, competing, and generally treating one another with no respect.32.There are good reasons not to follow those bad examples. Humans are socially related by nature.里Researchers have also found that empathetic teenagers arc more likely to have high sclf-rcspcct. Besides, empathy can be a cure for loneliness, sadness, anxiety, and fear.Empathy is also an indication of a good leader. In fact, Freed say
