I had never been late and didnt want my boss to be unsatisfied.However, it seemed that day wasnt a lucky one for me from the very second I left my flat. The moment I wanted to rush downstairs one of my stiletto heels (细高跟) broke. I had to return to change my red shoes. I also had to change my purse and other little things that I had tried to match with the shoes. I was sure I would be late for work.     On my way to work I had to wait for over half an hour because of an accident. I had no choice but to wait. I phoned my boss and he told me that it was no problem, but he needed me for the meeting with the Japanese clients (客户) that morning.     Finally, I arrived at the office one hour later. I had to keep calm and be fresh for the meeting to make the clients sure that our plan was the best for their future commercial (商业的) project. However, I left the plan I had made the night before at home and was going to present (介绍) it to the clients. I was about to get angry when I realized that I had a draft (草稿) of it in my office.     At last, the presentation came to an end and it turned out to be a success.

In the past, only people with a good deal of money could travel on holidays to other countries. More people travel today than in the past because there is a growing middle class in many parts of the world; that is to say, people now have more money for travel. Special plane fares(费用) for tourists make travel less expensive and more attractive than ever before. One person doesnt travel for the same reason as another. But most people enjoy seeing countries that are different from their own. They also like to meet new people and to taste new food. Tourism causes many changes in a country and in peoples lives. People build new hotels and restaurants and train native men and women as guides to show visitors interesting places. Therere new nightclubs and other amusements. International tourism is clearly a big business.26.

They cannot even understand rhythm (韵律).""Nobody wants to pay musicians anything. Im sick of all the people who want you to play without paying you.” One younger musician said, "There are a couple of clubs who want me to play for a few nights a month, and Im trying to find other places to play. Im also planning to join in several summer festivals this year." I really liked what the younger musician said so I made friends with him. Attitudes are important. Whether theyre positive or negative (消极的), theyre all rubbing off on you. If youre around people who are always complaining(抱怨) or blaming (责备) others, it is possible that you will start doing the same as well. If you spend lots of time with people who dont support your dreams, it is time to take a look at the people you call "friends". There is an easy exercise you can try. Make a list of the people who you often stay with, and simply stop spending time with the negative people on your list. Set a new standard for yourself and dont become friends with people who fall below that standard. The choice is always yours to make. Of course, this exercise is entirely different from making friends only for the good of oneself. We really should try to help and spend time with those who are working towards a goal or dream.31. The musicians conversation at the beginning is to show that _.A. musicians living conditions are not goodB. people in that town have poor taste in musicC. different people have different attitudesD. young people are more likely to succeed32. The underlined part "theyre rubbing off on you" in Paragraph 2 means _.A. theyll push you ahead B. theyll have an influence on you C. theyll keep you from moving on D. theyll help you realize your dreams33. Why did the author want to make friends with the younger musician? A. He is more active than the others. B. He can earn more than the others.C. He has more things to do than the others.D. His attitude is more positive than the others.34. By doing the exercise mentioned in Paragraph 3, you can _.A. make the right kind of friendsB. improve your ability to make friendsC. develop a better relationship with your friendsD. make some new friends with the same interests as you35. We can get the following information from the passage EXCEPT _.A. the younger musician is a positive person and would be a good friendB. one will start complaining if one spends too much time with negative peopleC. the exercise can help you keep close to really helpful friendsD. one should avoid making friends with people who have lots of difficulties第三部分 英语知识运用（共两节，满分55分）第一节 完形填空（共20小题；每题2分，满分40分）阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的四个选项（A, B, C和D）中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。Anne Frank was born in Germany in 1929.
