been fortunate to have had numerous teachers andprofessors who I respect for their patience and intelligence.There are artists that have inspired meby their natural talents and original creativity.I value many political leaders,who have inspiredme by their contributions to society,and their ability to change our future.But of all the people Ihave known in my life,the person I admire most is my father.As the youngest girl in my family,I always considered myself to be“Daddys little girl.While growing up,it always made me sad to see so many of my friends and neighbours without afather or father-like figure around.This helped me appreciate how my father always takes aninterest in his childrens lives.In my early life my father continuously pushes me to excel,so Icould accomplish my work outstandingly among my people.Whenever I feel like giving up,orhaving a question or a concern,I know I can always call on him for advice.From him I have alsolearned that sometimes you have to put others needs ahead of your own,but not to the point theywill begin to take advantage of you.His strength seems to be unbreakable during hard times,andhe is extremely determined to accomplish anything he sets his mind on,no matter how tiny it is.Ihighly respect him for how he stands up for what he believes in,and will never back down.I havealways admired his open mind,enthusiasm for work and people around,and sense ofunderstanding.He is a very reserved man,but to everybodys surprise,he has a great sense ofhumor,and always knows how to put a smile on the faces of his wife,his children and his friends.Living in his affection and instruction,I am very proud of my father.He also professes howproud he is of his children,and is still there to support us in whatever we are involved in.36.What is the best title for the passage?A.How my father loved me as“Daddys little girl”.B.My father-the person I admire most.C.I am the apple on my fathers palm.D.My father-the person who loved me most.37.Which of the following could NOT be used to describe the writers father?A.Considerate and humourous.B.Affectionate and open-minded.C.Energetic and helpful.D.Knowledgeable and sociable.38.Which of the following can best explain the underlined word“excel“in Paragraph 2?A.Be more powerful than others.B.Be richer than others.C.Do better than others.D.Be more charming than others.39.By saying“you have to put others needs ahead of your own,but not to the point they willbegin to take advantage of you“in Paragraph 2,the father was telling the writer t o.A.think for others and help them,but not to be made use of in negative waysB.think for others and help them,so that you can make use of them to serve youC.try to make use of those who want to do so to youD.try to be good to those who are worth making friends with40.What can we infer about the writer?A.She appreciated her father because he solved all the problems for her.B.She was outstanding in work because her father pushed her too hard.C.She considered her father silly and often laughed at him.D.She has a strong sense of sympathy towards other people.BFor centuries,the bodys blood has been linked closely with the emotions.People who show nohuman emotions or feelings,are said to be cold-blooded killer.For example,the police aresearching for a cold-blooded killer.He seems to kill for no reason,and no emotion,as if takingsomeones life as nothing.Cold can affect other parts of the body.The expression“get cold feet”has nothing to do withcold or your feet.The expression means being afraid to do something you have decided to do.Forexample,you agree to be president of an organization.But then you learn that all the other officershave resigned,and all the work of the organization will be your responsibility.You are likely toget cold feet about being president when you understand the situation.The expression“give someone the cold shoulder“probably comes from the physical act ofturning your back toward someone,instead of speaking to him face to face.You may give a coldshoulder to a friend who has not kept a promise he made to you.Or,to someone who has liedabout you to others.A cold fish is not a fish.It is a person.But it is a person who is unfriendly,unemotional andshows no love or warmth.A cold fish does not offer much of himself to anyone.Someone who isa cold fish could be cold-hearted.Now a cold-hearted person is someone who has nosympathy.Several popular songs in recent years were about cold-hearted men or cold-heartedwomen who,without feelings,broke the hearts of their lovers.Out in the cold means not getting something that everybody else got.A person might say thateverybody but him got a pay raise-he was left out in the cold.And it is not a pleasant place tobe.41.There are expressions related to cold that are mentioned in the passage.A.3 B.4 C.6 D.742.When you refuse to speak to a man and treat him in a distant way,you may express byA.I give him the cold shoulder B.I think he is a cold-blooded manC.I think he is a cold fish D.Fm likely to get cold feet43.If Sue shows absolutely no reaction to those awful pictures of starving children in Africa,youwill s a y.A.she is a cold-blooded killer B.she gets cold feetC.she is a cold fish D.she is out in the cold44.We can use the expression to describe a man who abandons or hurts his

friendshipC.some expressions connected with coldD.how cold weather comes into beingCOn March 5,2009,Michael Jackson stood in front of crowds of fans.Before screaming fans,he pronounced with pumping arms:This is it!A few months later,Jackson was dead.With the late pop stars return to radio,television andthe cultural events,Forbes judges that Jackson has made$90 million since his death June 25.Thisfigure is based on his royalties(版 税)from album sales,radio play,rights to his name androyalties from his stock in the Sony/ATV music catalog(编 目 权).Jacksons music was his most easily-seen source in the last months.Nothing increases thevalue of an artist than death.an untimely d ea th,sa y s Barry Massarsky,a music industryeconomist.The musics immediate value was clear.Since

Australia.Jackson recently hasthree of the top 20 best-selling albums of the year in the US,according to Nielsen SoundScan.His2003 hits album Number Ones is the best seller of the year,beating Taylor Swifts Fearless.More than 500,000 Jackson ringtones and 100,000 music videos were sold.In the weekfollowing his death,songs by The Jackson 5,The Jacksons and Michael were played over 100,000times on the radio,according to Nielsen BDS.Jacksons estate(遗 产)will likely see more money by the end of this year,as it has rights tosome of the profits from This Is It as well as the two-disc album of the same name.The estatewill share 90%of the film profits with AEG.Ticket sales from an exhibit opening in London will also contribute a likely profit.Hundredsof Jacksons personal belongingshis L.A.Rolls Royce etc-w ill remain on show for threemonths at the 02 for fans willing to sell out$25 for a view.The pop singer bought ATV Publishing,for$47.5 million in 1985.Ten years later,he sold thecatalog to Sony for$95 million and took a 50%stock in Sony/ATV,which is now worth about$1.7 to$2 billion.So he still owned half the Sony/ATV catalog at his death.Jacksons future earning potential is based on his stock in valuable music and as well as thevalue of his image(肖 像).As many musicians,actors and artists before him,Jacksons fame couldhave a long tail on the market with allowable products,advertising and entertainment events.46.What do Barry Massarskys words in Paragraph 3 imply?A.Jackson died at the time as expected.B.Only at death can an artist become famous.C.Jackson became more famous at death

noodles intothe boiling water.However,have you ever thought whether it is the right way of cooking instantnoodles?When we first took out the noodles,we can notice that the noodles are joined together nicely as apiece.However,few people know that when the instant noodles are made,wax coating(蜡 涂 层)will be put on the noodles.The wax coating on the instant noodles is used to prevent the noodlesfrom sticking together.It makes the noodles look very nice.Researches have shown that the wax coating on the noodles is quite harmful(有 害 的)to ourhealth.If you eat the instant noodles today,youd better

bodies to be in danger.You
