For the blanks with a given word, fill in each blank with the proper form of the given word. For the other blanks, fill in each blank with one proper word. Mak

15、e sure that your answers are grammatically correct. (A)“Time,” says the proverb, “is money”. This means that every moment well-spent may put some money into our pockets.If our time (25) _ (employ) usefully, it will either turn out some useful and important piece of work which will fetch its price in

16、 the market, or it will add to our experience and increase our capacities so as to enable us to earn money when the proper opportunity comes. Let those, (26) _ think nothing of wasting time, remember this.Our life is nothing more than our time. To kill time is therefore a form of suicide. We are sho

17、cked (27) _ we think of death, and we spare no pains, no trouble, and no expense to preserve life.But we often care nothing about the loss of an hour or of a day, (28) _ (forget) that our life is the sum total of the days and of the hours we live. Our life is a brief period measuring some seventy or

18、 eighty years in all.So a day or an hour (29) _ (waste) is therefore so much life lost.But nearly one third of this has to be spent in sleep; some years have to be spent over our meals; some in watching over the sick-beds of our (30) _ (near) relatives; some in making journeys on land and voyages by

19、 sea.Now if all these years were to be decreased from the term over which our life extends, we shall find about twenty or thirty years at our disposal (处置) for active work. (31) _ remembers this can never willingly waste a single moment of his life.The precious hours of childhood and youth, if prope

20、rly used, (32) _ (supply) us with incalculable advantages. If we allow these morning hours of life to slip away, we shall never be able to make up for the loss. (B)Home on the WayPeople need homes: children assume their parents place as home; boarders call school “home” on weekdays; married couples

21、work together (33) _ (build) new homes; and travelers have no place to call “home”, at least for a few nights.So how (34) _ people who have to travel for extended periods of time Dont they have the right to have a home Of course they do.Some regular travelers take their own belongings: like bed shee

22、ts, toothbrushes and family photos to make them feel like home (35) _ _ _ they are; some stay for long periods in the same hotel and as a result become very familiar with service and attendants; others (36) _ simply put some flowers by the hotel window to make things more homely. Furthermore, drivin

23、g a camping car during ones travels and sleeping in the vehicle at night is just like (37) _ is generally thought of as “home” - only mobile!And how about maintaining relationships while in transit Some keep contact with their friends via internet; some send letters and postcards, or even photos; (3

24、8) _ may just call and say hi, just to let their friends know that theyre still alive and well. People find ways to keep in touch. (39) _ (make) friends on the way helps travelers feel more or less at home. Backpackers in youth hostels may become very good friends, even closer than siblings.Nowadays

25、, fewer people are working in their local towns, so how do they develop a sense of belonging Whenever we step out of our local boundaries, there is always another “home” waiting to be found. Wherever we are, with just a little bit of effort and imagination, we can make (40) _ place where we stay “ho

26、me”.Section BDirections: Complete the following passage by using the words in the box. Each word can only be used once. Note that there is one word more than you need.

27、arlyJiading - Centuries of History, Decades of ChangeA book entitled “Jiading Centuries of History, Decades of Change” by American writer Kate Baker has recently been published in Shanghai. New book launch was held last week at the Old China Hand Style, a major _41_ of a series of walking guide book

28、s called “Beyond the Concession: Six Walks in Shanghais Other Districts.” And Bakers “Jiading” runs the fourth among the six.From a foreign point of view, the book has _42_ the history of Jiading District back between the year Tang Dynasty (618-907) and the Song Dynasty (960-1279), when Jiading had

29、been “a leading economic and intellectual influence in the region long before Shanghai became a major trading port,” as Baker is _43_ in her book. Baker first landed in Shanghai in 2011 with her husband, an engineer with Ford, who was sent to work in Shanghai to prepare for the _44_ of the Lincoln b

30、rand in China. “I and my husband have been traveling around the world in the past 20 years,” Baker said at a(n) _45_ with Shanghai Daily. “Wherever I go, I would jump into the local history and culture quickly and deeply.”Having taken a 15-month online course of Chinese with Harvards “China X”, Bake

31、r started _46_ out on her own. An occasional excursion into the northwest of Shanghai, she “discovered” and fell in love with Jiading. Since then, she has visited Jiading _47_, bringing family, friends, and tour groups. At the end of 2013, the Jiading Tourism Bureau officially invited Baker to write

32、 a book on Jiading.With up-to-date facts, useful information and _48_ pictures, Bakers “Jiading” is a well researched guide about interesting areas less than one hour from Shanghai. There are chapters on celebrating the seasonal and agricultural festivals that are unique to the region; stories of _4

33、9_ figures living in Jiading; changes to the Nanxiang Old Town; tours to numerous gardens, museums and temples; and the development of outdoor recreational activities in Jiadings Anting Town, such as the F1 car racing, horse riding and golf.With good public _50_ and enough green space, Baker sees Ji

34、ading a high growth district of Shanghai, which offers a quality of lifestyle and tourism. “I see a better-planned and forward-thinking of the district government. And I sincerely thank the people of Jiading who welcomed me to their community and trusted me with their narrative,” Baker says.III. Rea

35、ding ComprehensionSection ADirections: For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A, B, C and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.Harvard LibraryIf we compare professors and students to the host of a university, then the librar

36、y of a university can be compared to the hallway. The quality of a university, _51_, is in direct proportion to that of its library. At Harvard, the library is an essential part of everybodys life. Both the quantity and the _52_ of the library make study a pleasant process.Harvard Library is not onl

37、y the most ancient library in the United States, but the largest university library with the largest scale. In 1638 John Harvard _53_ his whole library to the then Harvard College.

40、. The main libraries are open until 10 p.m. The libraries for undergraduates will even be open all night during the _59_ period. The libraries also provide with students the service of _60_ reading materials for all courses. At the beginning of a semester, each teacher will give a list of books to t

41、he librarians. The librarians are _61_ to find out these books and put them at the places where students can easily find them.There is no limitation for the number of books that students can borrow. As the space for the library is limited, many books are _62_ in suburban library. Despite this, stude

42、nts can go to fetch the book at the _63_ library within 24 hours after they submit request for that book. Even if there is only one book to be fetched from the suburban library, the libraries on campus will send someone to do the job. This kind of _64_ which put readers in the first place is rare ev
