instance, steve taught me to face the results of my behavior. once when i returned in tears from a saturday baseball game, it was steve who took the time to ask me what happened. when i explained that my baseball had soared through mrs. holts basement window, breaking the glass with a crash, steve encouraged me to confess（承认）to her. after all, i should have been playing in the park down fifth street and not in the path between buildings. although my knees knocked as i explained to mrs. holt, i offered to pay for the window from my pocket money if she would return my ball. i also learned from steve that personal property is a sacred（神圣的） thing. after i found a shiny silver pen in my fifth-grade classroom, i wanted to keep it, but steve explained that it might be important to someone else in spite of the fact that it had little value. he reminded me of how much id hate to lose to someone else the small dog that my father carved from a piece of cheap wood. i returned the pen to my teacher, mrs. davids, and still remembered the smell of her perfume as she patted me on my shoulder. yet of all the instructions steve gave me, his respect for life is the most vivid in my mind. when i was twelve, i killed an old brown sparrow in the yard with a bb gun. excited with my accuracy, i screamed to steve to come from the house to take a look. i shall never forget the way he stood for a long moment and stared at the bird on the ground. then in a dead, quiet voice, he asked, “did it hurt you first, mark?” i didnt know what to answer. he continued with his eyes firm, “the only time you should even think of hurting a living thing is if it hurts you first. and then you think a long, long time.” i really felt terrible then, but that moment stands out as the most important lesson my brother taught me.46. what is the main subject of the passage?a. the relationship between mark and steve.b. the important lesson mark learned in schoolc. steves important role in marks growing process.d. mark and steves respect for living things.47. it can be inferred from the passage that when mark confessed to mrs. holt, _.a. he felt surprised b. he was light-heartedc. he felt frightened d. he knelt before her48. in the story about the pen, which of the following lessons did steve teach his brother?a. respect for personal property. b. respect for life.c. sympathy for people with problems. d. the value of honesty.49. according to the writer, which was the most important lesson steve taught his young brother?a. respect for living things. b. responsibility for ones actions.c.

father carved somewhere.c. when a living thing hurts you, you should kill it.d. even if a living thing hurts you, you should not kill it without hesitation.ci began to grow up that winter night when my parents and i were returning from my aunts house, and my mother said that we might soon be leaving for america. we were on the bus then. i was crying, and some people on the bus were turning around to look at me. i remember that i could not bear the thought of never hearing again the radio program for school children to which i listened every morning. i do not remember myself crying for this reason again. in fact, i think i cried very little when i was saying goodbye to my friends and relatives. when we were leaving i thought about all the places i was going to seethe strange and magical places i had known only from books and pictures. the country i was leaving and never to come back was hardly in my head then.the four years that followed taught me the importance of optimism（乐观）, but the idea did not come to me at once. for the first two years in new york i was really losthaving to study in three schools as a result of family moves. i did not quite know what i was or what i should be. mother remarried, and things became even more complex for me. some time passed before my stepfather and i got used to each other. i was often sad, and saw no end to “the hard times.” my responsibilities in the family increased a lot since i knew english better than everyone else at home. i wrote letters, filled out forms, translated at interviews with immigration officers（移民局官员）, took my grandparents to the doctor and translated there, and even discussed telephone bills with company representatives.from my experiences i have learned one important rule: almost all common troubles go away at last! something good is certain to happen in the end when you do not give up, and just wait a little! i believe that my life will turn out all right, even though it will not be that easy.51. the author got to know america from _.a. radio programs b. books and pictures c. her mother d. her relatives52. upon leaving for america the author felt _.a. excited b. confused c. worried d. amazed53. for the first two years in new york, the author _.a. often lost her way b. did not think about her futurec. studied in three different schools d. got on well with her stepfather54. we can learn about the author from paragraph 4 that_.a. she worked as a translator. b. she attended a lot of job interviews.c. she paid telephone bills for her family. d. she helped her family with her english.55. the author believes that _.a. her future will be free from troubles b. it is difficult to learn to become patientc. there are more good things than bad things d. good things will happen if one keeps trying din the early stages of skill or character development, imitation（模仿） is helpful. when i first learned to cook, i used recipes (菜谱) and turned out some tasty dishes. but soon i grew bored. why follow someone elses way of cooking when i could create my own? imitating role models is like using training wheels on a childs bicycle; they help you get going, but once you find your own balance, you fly faster and farther without relying on them.in daily life, imitation can hurt us if we subconsciously (下意识地) hold poor role models. if, as a child, you observed people whose lives were bad, you may have accepted their fear and pain as normal and gone on to follow what they did. if you do not make strong choices for yourself, you will get the results of the weak choices of others.in the field of entertainment, those stars look great on screen. but when they step off screen, their personal lives may be disastrous. if you are going to follow someone, focus on their talent, not their bad character or unacceptable behaviors.think of the movies, books, teachers, and friends that have affected you most deeply. the world is changed not by those who do what has been done before them, but by those who do what has been done inside them. creative people have an endless resource of ideas. the problem a creator faces is not running out of material; it is what to do with the material knocking at the door of imagination.56.imitation proves useful when you .a. know you are unique b. lose the balance of lifec. begin to learn something new d. get tired of routine practice57. to avoid the bad result of imitation, we should_.a. forget daily fear and pain b. choose the right examplec. ask others for decisions d. stay away from stars58. according to the author, the world moves on because of those who are .a. eager to influence others with their knowledge b. ready to turn their original ideas into realityc. eager to discover what their ancestors didd. willing to accept others ideas59.the trouble a creator faces is .a. the lack of strong motivation b. the absence of practical ideas c. how to search for more materials d. how to use imagination creatively60. the authors purpose in writing this passage is to _.a. emphasize the importance of creativity. b. criticize the characters of role models.c. compare imitation with creation. d. explain the meaning of success.ethis hotel in the trees is famous in the world. peop1e who know very little about kenya, know of treetops. when king george vi died, princess elizabeth was staying on the treetops, and when she came down from there, “she succeeded him as the queen of the country”. this hotel in the middle of the forest shows the pleasure of africa. when you visit it, you will be sent into the heart of the forest by hotel buses, and then a guide, with a gun to protect you against big game, will go with you to the treetops. before and after dinner, for the whole night if you w
