She left school at the age of 16. She had to work to support her family. Her English was very poor. She didn't have the courage to ask for a job.One day,Lily saw a sign at a company. "Help wanted." the sign said. She walked up to the office and knocked on the door. She was met by the office manager,Margaret Costello. In her broken English. Lily told her she was interested in the secretarial position. Margaret knew something wasn't right,but decided to give the girl a chance.Margaret sat her down at a typewriter and said,"Lily, let's see how good you really are." She let Lily type a letter and then left. Lily looked at the clock: it was 11:40 a.m. Everyone would leave for lunch at noon. She thought that she could slip away in the crowd. But she thought she should at least try to type the letter. She got through one line. It had five words and she had made four mistakes.She pulled the paper out and threw it away. The clock now showed 11:45. Lily tried again. She got through a full paragraph,but she still had made many mistakes. Again. she pulled out the paper,threw it away and started over. This time,she typed the whole letter,but there were still many mistakes. She looked at the clock:11:55. Just then,Margaret walked in. She read the letter and then said. "Lily, you did a good job." Lily was surprised. With those simple words of encouragement, her confidence began to grow. She thought,"Well,if she thinks it's good,it must be good. I think I'll stay."Lily did stay at the company for 51 yearsall because someone gave her courage when she knocked on the door.11Lily left school because _.Aher family was poorBher English was goodCshe was 16 years oldDshe was from America12What job did Lily want to get in the company?_AA secretary.BA manager.CA director.DA gatekeeper.13When did Lily finish typing the whole letter?_AAt 11:40.BAt 11:45.CAt 1l:50.DAt 11:55.14Which of the following best describes Margaret?_AWell-dressed.BKind-hearted.CHard-working.DGood-looking.15What can be learned from the text?_AFailure is the mother of success.BMistakes are often the best teachers.CEncouragement makes confidence.DWithout confidence, there is no friendship.BIt feels like every time my mother and I start to have a conversation, it turns into an argument. We talk about something as simple as dinner plans and suddenly, my mother will push the conversation into World War 3. Shell talk about my not very bright future because I dont plan to be a doctor, and much to her disappointment, I dont want to do any job related to science, either. In fact when I was pushed to say that I planned to major(主修)in English and communications, she nearly had a heart attack."Why can't you be like my co-workers(同事)son?" she bemoans all the time.” Her co-worker's son received a four-year scholarship(奖学金)and is now making 70,000 dollars a year as an engineer. I dont know what to answer except that I just cant be like Mr. Perfect as Ive called the unnamed co-workers son. I cant be like him. I am the type of the person who loves to help out in the community, write until the sun goes down, and most of all, wants to achieve a career because I love it, not because of honor or money.I understand why my mother is worried about my future major. Ive seen my mother struggle to raise me on her little money and work long hours. She leaves the house around 6:30 am. She usually comes home around 5 pm or even 6 pm. However, I want her to know that if I become a doctor, it doesnt mean Ill be successful. Id rather follow my dreams and create my own future.根据材料内容选择最佳答案。16Which of the following topics do the writer and his mother often talk about?_AThe writer's further job.BThe writer's studies.CWars around the world.DDinner plans.17We can infer from Paragraph 1 that the writers mother _.Agets along very well with the writerBdoesnt want the writer to major in EnglishCdoesnt think working in the scientific field is a good ideaDdoesnt think the writer should be a doctor18The underlined word “bemoans", in Paragraph 2 most probably means “_”.A安慰B称赞C抱怨D大喊19Which of the following statements is probably TRUE about the writer?_AHe doesnt think his mother's co-worker's son is perfect.BHe wants to be like his mother's co-worker's son.CHe wants to find a job in his community in the future.DHe wants to do something he really likes in the future.20We can know from the last paragraph that _.Athe writer's mother works very hard for the familyBthe writer doesnt know what his future will be likeCthe writer doesnt think being a doctor is a good jobDthe writer sometimes thinks his mothers advice is very good三、书面表达A21假设你叫李明,你们班级要选拔新班长,你想向班主任王老师推荐张航。请根据表格内容,写一封80词左右的推荐信给王老师。信的开头和结尾已给出,不计入总词数。姓名张航特长精通电脑,擅长演讲性格、品质自信、勤奋、谦虚、有条理、乐于助人个人事迹经常花很多时间组织课外活动,从不介意为班级做额外的工作,总是尽最大努力帮助同学,深受同学们欢迎。Dear Mr Wang, Im writing to recommend Zhang Hang as our new monitor._I hope you can consider my recommendation.B假设你叫李明,你们班级要选拔新班长,你想向班主任王老师推荐张航。请根据表格内容,写一封80词左右的推荐信给王老师。信的开头和结尾已给出,不计入总词数。姓名张航特长精通电脑,擅长演讲性格、品质自信、勤奋、谦虚、有条理、乐于助人个人事迹经常花很多时间组织课外活动,从不介意为班级做额外的工作,总是尽最大努力帮助同学,深受同学们欢迎。Dear Mr Wang, Im writing to recommend Zhang Hang as our new monitor._I hope you can consider my recommendation.Yours sincerely,Li Ming
