Soon afterward，his parents moved to Kil

18、lingworth, Connecticut. When John was six, both his parents died. A kind-hearted aunt in North Killingworth agreed to take John and give him a home. He was brought up by her and lived in her home until he left to study for the ministry. His aunt took seriously ill and feared she was about to die. In

19、 great suffering she wrote John Todd a letter in which she asked him to tell her what death would be like. Here is the letter he sent in reply: It is now thirty-five years since I, as a little boy of six, was left quite alone in the world. You sent me word you would give me a home and be a kind moth

20、er to me. I have never forgotten the day when I made the long journey of ten miles to your house in North Killingworth. I can still remember my disappointment when, instead of coming for me yourself, you sent your servant James to fetch me.I well remembered my tears and anxiety as, sitting high on y

21、our horse and sticking tight to James, I rode off to my new home. Night fell before we finished the journey, and as it grew dark I became lonely and afraid. “Do you think shell go to bed before we get there?” I asked James anxiously. “Oh, no,” he said encouragingly. “Shell stay up for you. When we g

22、et out of these woods youll see her candle shining in the window.” Presently we did ride out into the clearing, and there, sure enough, was your candle. I remember you were waiting at the door, that you put your arms close about me and that you lifted me a tired and confused little boy down from the

23、 horse. You had a fire burning on the ground, a hot supper waiting on the stove. After supper you took me to my new room, heard me say my prayers, and then sat beside me until I fell asleep.You probably realize why I am recalling all this to your memory. Some day soon God will send for you, to take

24、you to a new home. Dont fear the callings, the strange journey, or the dark messenger of death who will fetch you. God can be trusted to do as much for you as you were kind enough to do for me so many years ago. At the end of the road you will find love and a welcome waiting, and you will be safe in

25、 Gods care. I shall watch you and pray for you till you are out of sight, and then wait for the day when I shall make the same journey myself and find you waiting at the end of the road to greet me.51. What do we know from the first two paragraphs?A. Todd was forty when he wrote this letter.B. Todds

26、 aunt was somewhat feared of death.C. Todd was very excited when first met by the aunt.D. Todd was kind to his aunts concern. 52. According to the passage, we can infer that _. A. Todd dislikes his aunt very muchB. Todd will wait for his aunt at the end of the roadC. Todd will one day make the same

27、road himselfD. Todd will write this letter for Gods benefit53. The underlined sentence in the last paragraph probably means _. A. God can be trusted many years agoB. you did as much as God many years agoC. you were kind enough to me many years ago D. God will treat you as well as you did many years

28、ago54. What is the best title of the passage?A. An unforgettable childhoodB. A Timeless Letter of ComfortC. A letter of giving thanksD. A full-of-love burning candle B Shi Jianfei is a college student at Beijing Information Science and Technology University. He met with an academic problem during th

29、e summer vocation but it took him a lot determination to finally approach his professor to solve the problem. To his surprise, the meeting turned out to be quite pleasant. But only few students turn to their professors to ask for advice in solving problems or discuss academic topics with them. Accor

30、ding to an investigation of 2,636 college students conducted by MyCOS, a Beijing-based consultancy (咨询公司), more than a third of them contact their, professor less than once a year. Although most students and teachers are willing to communicate with each other, it seems that an effective communicatio

31、n system is absent. Shi says , “Communication usually takes place in class or between classes, because its difficult to get in touch with professors at any other time. University professors always look very busy.” However, from the teachers perspective, students are too cautious about communicating

32、with professors. “Theyre worried about asking questions for they think they may leave a bad impression,” says Du Xiguang, professor of chemistry at Northeast Normal University. Du created a QQ group in which students can discuss various issues with him, ranging from academic topics to personal probl

33、ems. “I find they are very talkative in this group. But if they talk to me in person, theyre shy and nervous,” he says. Wu Qian, 22, an English major at Tsinghua University admits that when she meets with problems she prefers talking to her classmates and upper-classmen. “I think many students are t

34、oo shy and passive, myself included. I feel more comfortable communicating with my classmates,” she says.Du also says that the shyness of many students to a change lies in different teaching styles. In primary school, Chinese students get used to talking with their teachers because theyre like“nanni

35、es” who not only teach, but also watch out for their students personal development. “In college, such communication isnt compulsory any more and students arent pushed to discuss their ideas with professors,” says Du. “The real problem is that students arent yet ready to engage in adult conversation

36、with professors. Some of them just expect professors to explain facts and help them prepare for exams, like in high school.”55. What does Paragraph 2 talk about?A. The reason why the communication is little.B. The present situation of communication.C. The background of the phenomenon.D. The details

37、of the phenomenon.56. Whats the real reason why Shi Jianfei didnt turn to his professor for help immediately meeting with an academic problem?A. An effective communication mechanism is absent.B. Its difficult to get in touch with professor. C. He is too shy and passive.D. Communication isnt compulso

38、ry any more.57. The underlined word “nannies” is closest in meaning to_.A. nurses B. gardeners C. friends D. leaders 58. In which way does the author present the passage?A. By giving some dialogues between students and teachers B. By giving some specific examples of students and teachers C. By inter

39、viewing different students and teachers D. By listing some facts and opinions of students and teachersC A new study surprised researchers, finding that for adolescent girls, romantic relationship problems can have serious, negative impacts on their mental health.“I found that girls risk of severe de

40、pression, thoughts of killing themselves, and self-killing attempt increase, the more their relationships diverge (偏离) from what they imagined,”said the studys author Brian Soller, Ph.D., an assistant professor of sociology at the University of New Mexico.Soller used data from more than 5,300 high s

41、chool students from the National Longitudinal Study of Adolescent Health. From this data he examined the mental health consequences of mismatches between adolescents ideal and actual relationships.Soller measured relationship inauthenticity by comparing how adolescents described their ideal relation

42、ship in an initial interview with how their first relationship after the interview actually played out.“In the initial interview, researchers provided adolescents with a number of cards describing events that often occur within relationships, including everything from hand-holding and kissing to sex

43、,” Soller said.Respondents kept cards describing events they would engage in within an ideal relationship, and then indicated the order in which the events would occur.Roughly a year later, the respondents repeated the exercise, only this time they indicated which events took place within their rela

44、tionship, and then provided the order in which the events happened.During both interviews, researchers asked participants about their mental health.As for why relationship inauthenticity increased the risk of mental health problems for girls, but not for boys, Soller said, “Romantic relationships ar

45、e particularly important components of girls identities and are, therefore, strongly related to how they feel about themselves good or bad.“As a result, relationships that diverge from what girls imagine for themselves are especially damaging to their emotional well-being.”On the other hand, Soller

46、said relationships are not as important to boys identities.“Boys may be more likely to build their identities around sports or other after-class activities, so this could be why they are not affected by relationship inauthenticity,” he said.In terms of the studys policy implications, Soller said par

47、ents, educators, and policymakers should think about how to help girls construct identities that are less closely tied to romantic involvement.“Helping girls build their identities around things other than romantic relationships may mitigate the effects of relationship inauthenticity on their mental

48、 health,” he said.59. From the text, we can know that _.A. the mental health results of teens ideal relationship matches actual relationshipB. in the first interview, teens are asked to state their actual relationshipC. thousands of senior school students serve as subjectsD. half a year later, the s

49、ubjects are required to describe their mental problem again60. Soller may agree that _.A. romantic relationship plays as important a part in girls life as in boys lifeB. romantic relationship prevents girls from participating in various activitiesC. romantic relationship problems can damage teen gir

50、ls mental healthD. romantic relationship is strongly related to how boys feel about themselves 61. The underlined word “mitigate” can be replaced by _.A. ease B. increaseC. protect D. prohibit62. What is the authors purpose in writing this text?A. To persuade. B. To inform.C. To entertain. D. To edu

51、cate.D The Oscar nominations (提名) will be announced tomorrow morning and despite the Academys best efforts, it looks like the biggest films of the year will be mostly shut out of competition. Dont expect big nominations for The Avengers, The Dark Knight Rises or The Hunger Games. Since 2008, the Aca

52、demy of Motion Pictures Arts and Sciences (AMPAS) has been playing with the scheme for Best Picture in the hopes of getting more popular films nominated (提名) and increasing audience for the Oscar ceremony which last year was watched by fewer people than watched the Grammy Awards. First they increase

53、d the number of nominated films from five to ten. This year, to complicate things, there could be as many as ten nominees or as few as five. In order to qualify for a Best Picture nod, a film has to be the top pick of at least 5% of the Academy voters. That means theres room for an unknown factor. O

54、ur in-house film expert, Mark Hughes, thinks that could be Skyfall or The Hobbit which would ruin the condition of this post. I think Skyfall has a decent chance of being a spoiler. It has a admirable director in Sam Mendes, its earned almost universal praise from critics and its the first Bond movi

55、e ever to bring in $1 billion at the box office. But I suspect were going to see a very blockbuster（大片）-light list of nominations. The films that are getting the most award are Lincoln, Les Miserables and Zero Dark Thirty. While Lincoln and Les Miz are doing well at the box office (earning $144 mill

56、ion and $172 million so far separately), they arent near the top earners of 2012. Zero Dark Thirty has only been playing in a few theaters. It expands into wide release this weekend. Its not necessarily a bad thing that big blockbusters dont get nominated. Films that earn over $1 billion at the box

57、office dont really need any more publicity or anything else to help increase DVD income. Smaller films, like Zero Dark Thirty, rely on that Oscar boom. Nominations focusing on smaller films is good for the overall Hollywood ecosystem, even if the people running the awards would like to make things i

58、nteresting a bit. The awards are scheduled for February 24th on ABC. Seth MacFarlane is this years host.63. The AMPAS made changes to Best Picture to _.A. attract more people to watch moviesB. keep the biggest films away from itC. make the Oscar ceremony more popularD. increase the number of popular

59、 movies64. The underlined part “Skyfall has a decent chance of being a spoiler” (in Paragraph 3) means _.A. Skyfall is the best Bond movieB. Skyfall is quite likely to be nominatedC. Skyfall is just so-soD. Skyfall has little chance to be nominated65. Nominations focusing on smaller films is in the

60、hope that _ .A. smaller films are better than those so-called blockbustersB. more people will go to see smaller filmsC. blockbusters neednt any nominationsD. blockbusters will have better environment66. There is a room for an unknown factor in the nominations this year because _.A. the film has to b

61、e selected by at least 5% of the Academy votersB. there could be five to ten nomineesC. the biggest films will be mostly shut out of competitionD. The Hobbit would ruin the condition of this postE A burial site at 22,000 feet is giving scientists the best look at horrible Incan sacrificial ceremonie

62、s. By modern standards, the dangerous peak of Mount Llullaillaco, in the Argentine Andes, is no place for kids. The ancient Inca saw things differently though, some 500 years ago, three children arrived at the slopes of the 22,000 feet peak. The three had spent time at the 17,000 feet level, taking part in some ceremonies that can only b
