Perhaps the only test score that I remember is the 41 when I was in high school. The test was the final for the class which was rather 36 . I didn’t know how well I had done but I knew there were things on it that I didn’t know.

I remember anxiously 37 the result. When Mr. Bales dropped my paper on my desk, I was 38 .There in big red numbers, circled to 39 attention, was my grade---41.

I moved my paper where it wasn’t in 40 . A 41 isn’t something that you wanted your 41 to see.

Finally, Mr. Bales stood behind the worn desk and addressed the class., “The 42 were not very good; none of you passed. The 43 grade in the class was a 41, so all of you 44 .”

第三部分：阅读理解（共20小题；每小题2分，满分40分）

阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

We were driving in the right lane （车道）when, all of a sudden, a black car jumped out of a parking space right in front of us. My taxi driver stepped on his brakes hard, stopped, and missed the other car’s back end by just inches! The driver of the other car, the guy who almost caused a big accident, turned his head angrily and started yelling bad words at us.

My taxi driver just smiled and waved at the guy. And I mean, he was friendly. So, I said, “Why did you just do that? This guy almost ruined your car and sent us to the hospital!” And this was what my taxi driver told me which, I call, ‘The Law of the Garbage Truck.’

Many people are like garbage trucks. They run around full of garbage, full of frustration, full of anger, and full of disappointment. As their garbage piles up, they need a place to dump（倾卸） it. And if you let them, they’ll dump it on you. When someone wants to dump on you, don’t take it personally. You just smile, wave, wish them well, and move on. You’ll be happy you did.

So this was it: “The Law of the Garbage Truck.” I started thinking, how often do I let Garbage Trucks run right over me? And how often do I take their garbage and spread it to other people: at work, at home, on the streets? It was that day I said, “I’m not going to do it anymore.”

I began to see garbage trucks. I see the load they’re carrying. I see them coming to drop it off. And like my Taxi Driver, I don’t make it a personal thing; I just smile, wave, and move on.

Good leaders know they have to be ready for their next meeting. Good parents know that they have to welcome their children home from school with hugs and kisses. What about you? The mark of a successful person is how quickly they can get back their focus on what’s important.

56．The driver of the black car got angry because .

f them. D． The black car driver.

A．be as happy as you used to be B．b
e as happy as you expected

C．be happy that you did as I say D．be happy though you were not

59．What is the main idea of the last paragraph?

B．Ignore(忽视) unpleasantness and stick to your tasks.

C．Always be kind an hard-working

D．Do things quickly so as to be ready for the next. [来源:Zxxk.Com]

B

Bottled water or tap water(自来水)? The answer very much depends on how you are affected by advertising. Many British people certainly are easily influenced by ads. Bottled water is a￡2 billion business every year in the UK.

So why do we buy it? A study found that people tend to believe that bottled water is somehow healthier, but don’t know why. Perhaps it is because it costs more. Bottled water costs around 500 times more than tap water.

Manufactures(制造商) would make you believe that bottled water is naturally cleaner and tastier than tap water, but many, in fact, get their water from the same place that tap water comes from. Indeed, there is nothing natural about the way much bottled water is made.

Apart from the oil used to make the plastic bottles, the water causes much more pollution than tap water. Producing and transporting bottled water result in hundreds of times
more CO emissions(排放), and that’s before considering the effect the plastic bottles have on the environment —only around a quarter are recycled.

OK, so it is not “green” to drink bottled water, but what about your health? Isn’t tap water full of bad things? If you live in a country where water standards are poor, then you have cause for concern. But if you live in Britain, you can be confident that tap water has been filtered(过滤) and tested, and is perfectly safe to drink. In fact, Britain’s tap water is one of the safest in the world.

But does bottled water really taste better? Tap water can taste different in different areas. It may contain different amounts of minerals, which can affect its flavor. If the taste bothers you, the solution is to pour tap water into a bottle and put it in the fridge, or even buy a water filter. This ought to make it palatable. Then smile at the thoug
