Tm a good walker and so I pushed my way up the hill, although it was quite hard work. At the top, I saw many birds 41 (fly) around their nests(鸟巢).Feeling curious, I left the road and moved towards the nests. Aha, there were some baby birds in the nest. "If I take 42 picture of the baby birds, will I be attacked?” With 43 (butterfly) in my stomach, I held my camera up and pointed it at the birds.Just then, one of the birds made a loud noise. I was so surprised 44 I dropped my camera! I didn't have time to worry 45 it though. To protect their nests, the birds started to fly at me one by one to make me go away. I rushed back down the hill. Near the bottom of the hill, I heard a car engine. It was my mum's car! I jumped in and shut the door, looking at her in panic. “Go! Go! Go!” I shouted. I spent the rest of the summer saving up for a new camera.第四部分书面表达 第一节(满分15分)46.假定你是李华，你的英国笔友Tom最近来中国某中学交换学习，他来信告诉你她不知道如何学好中文， 请你给他回一封信，内容包括以下要点：1 .写信的目的；2 .具体建议：多用中文交流，提高口语和听力水平；大量阅读，增加词汇量；写中文日记，学以致用；3 .表达个人期待。注意：词数80词左右；可适当增加细节，使行文流畅。Dear Tom,第二节(满分25分)47.阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整 短文。Five years ago, I had a nine-to-five job, and I usually commuted (通勤)to work by bus.

Ithad contained half of the money she'd brought with her. The other half was rolled in a handkerchief and hidden under her blouse, so she fortunately still had some money left.The bus conductor, driver, and other passengers listened to her story. After a few minutes, she stopped crying, took out some cheese bread from her bag, and began to eat, looking still worried.An old man in tattered （破旧的）clothes got on the bus. He sat in the seat directly in front of the woman.After a few minutes, all seats were taken. The driver got behind the wheel and started the engine.

It's the idea that if children or even babies listen to music composed by Mozart, they will become more intelligent. A quick Internet search reveals plenty of products to assist you in the task. Whatever your age is, there are CDs and books to help you taste the power of Mozart's music, but when it comes to scientific evidence that it can make you more clever, the picture is more mixed.The phrase "the Mozart effect1' was made up in 1991, but it was a study described two years later in the journal Nature that sparked real media and public interest about the idea that listening to classical music somehow improves the brain. It is one of those ideas that sound reasonable. Mozart was undoubtedly a genius himself; his music is complex and there is a hope that if we listen to enough of it, well become more intelligent.The idea took off, with thousands of parents playing Mozart to their children, and in 1998 Zell Miller, the Governor of the state of Georgia in the US, even asked for money to be set aside in the state budget so that every newborn baby could be sent a CD of classical music. It was not just babies and children who were exposed to Mozart's music on purpose, even an Italian farmer proudly explained that the cows were played Mozart three times a day to help them produce better milk.Fil leave the debate on the impact on milk yield （产量）to farmers, but what about the evidence that listening to Mozart makes people more intelligent? More research was carried out but an analysis of sixteen different studies confirmed that listening to music does lead to a temporary improvement in the ability to handle shapes mentally, but the benefits are short-lived and it doesn't make us more intelligent.12. What can we learn from Paragraph 1?A. Mozart composed many musical pieces for children.B. There is little scientific evidence to support the Mozart effect.C. There are few products on the Internet about Mozart's music.D. Children listening to Mozart will be more intelligent.13. The underlined sentence in Paragraph 3 suggests that.A. people were strongly against the ideaB. Mozart played an important part in people's lifeC. the idea was accepted by many peopleD. the US government helped promote the idea14. What is the author's attitude towards the Mozart effect?A. Favorable.B. Objective.C. Doubtful.D. Positive.15. What would be the best title for the passage?A. What Music Is Beneficial?B. Listening to Mozart, Necessary?C. What Is the Mozart Effect?D. To Be or Not to Be?第二节根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余 选项。School success means different things to different people.
