“For your wonderful kindness,” the good fairy said to the girl, “I will give you any wish 34 can help you get what you want.” The little girl thought 35 a moment and then replied, “I want to be happy.” The fairy leaned toward her, whispered in her ear and then disappeared.

As the little girl grew up, there was no one in the land 36 (happy) than her. Everyone asked her about the secret of happiness .She would only smile and answer, “The secret of 37 happiness is that I listened to a good fairy when I was a little girl.”

When she 38 (die)， the neighbors all gathered around her, fearing that her 39 (believe) secret of happiness would die with her. “Tell us, please,” they begged, “Tell us 40 the good fairy said.” The lovely old woman simply smiled and said, “She told me that everyone, no matter how secure they seemed, no matter how old or young, how rich or poor, had need of me!”

III. 阅读（满分30分）

第一节 阅读理解（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分）

阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D项中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

A

I grew up in Jamaica Plain. My best friend Rose and I used to dream about raising a family of our own someday and living next door to one another.

? ? ?Our dream remained alive through school and beyond. Rose was my maid of honor when I married Dick. Later, Dick was stationed in Alaska and we moved. Rose was sad to see me leave, but wished me the best of luck. We remained in touch for a few years before we lost track.

　 I thought of her several times over the years. All of my children now have families of their own, and Dick passed away a few years ago. Basically, a lifetime has passed. Then one day, near my 80th birthday, I received a phone call “Hi Natalie, it’s Rose,” the voice on the other end said, “ I don’t know if you remember me, but we used to be best friends in Jamaica Plain when we were kids.”

　　We have spent hours on the phone catching up. Even after 52 years of separation our personalities and interests are still extremely similar. We both share a passion for several hobbies that we each picked up independently several years after we lost touch with one another. It almost feels like we are picking up right where we left off.

Her husband died a few years ago as well, but she mailed me several photographs of her family that were taken over the years. It’s so crazy, just looking at the photos and listening to her description of her family reminds me of my own: a reasonably large, healthy family. Part of me feels like we led fairly similar lives.

I don’t think the similarities between our two lives are a coincidence either. I think it shows that we didn’t just call each other best friend; we truly were best friends and even now we can be best friends again. Real friends have two things in common: a compatible(相容的)personality and a strong-willed character. The compatible personality is what starts the connection between two people. A strong-willed character at both ends is what maintains the connection. If those two ingredients are present in a friendship, the friendship is for real, It can pass the tests of time and long distance between one another and will never disappear

“A messy(凌乱的) desk can actually lead people towards clearer thinking”, say researchers from Germany．

The researchers found in a series of linked studies----using a messy desk and a messy shop front(店面)----that people actually thought more clearly when all around was chaos, as they sought to simplify the tasks at hand.

Visual and mental mess forces human beings to focus and think more clearly. Famous thinkers and writers such as Albert Einstein and Roald Dahl have been well-known for their untidy desks.

“Messy desks may not be as harmful as they appear to be. As the problem-solving approaches they seem to cause can increase work efficiency or improve employees' creativity in problem-solving,” say the authors.

“Business and government managers often promote 'clean desk' policies to avoid disorganized offices and messy desks, for the purpose of improving work efficiency and productivity,” writes lead researcher Jia Liu from the University of Groningen in a paper published in the Journal of Consumer Research.

“This practice is based on the conventional wisdom that a disorganized and messy environment can clutter(凌乱地塞满) one's mind and make one's judgments difficult.”

“However, not all evidence supports this traditional link between a messy environment and a messy mind.”

The scientists tested people's response in various messy environments----including a messy shop front, a disorganized desk, and even a work environment where a language task “reminded” people of messiness.

The authors found in the series of six studies tended towards simplicity in their thinking. “They categorized (分类) products in a simpler manner, were willing to pay more for a T-shirt that shows a simple-looking picture, and sought less variety in their choices,” said the researchers.

46. According to the first two paragraphs , .

A. A messy desk cannot contribute to clearer thinking

B. People thought more clearly about a messy desk and a shop front

C. People will feel confused when all around is chaos

D. People manage to make the tasks simple in messy environments

47. The author takes Albert Einstein as an example to .

A. support the idea that clearer thinking comes from messy environment

B. tell the fact that Einstein was well-known for his untidy desks

C. inform readers of one way to success----untidy desks

D. attract the readers and show the author’s wide range of knowledge

48. The attitude of Jia Liu towards “clean des
