a. dogs are dogs b. ready for a pet? c. have time for a dog? d. pets are family membersd parents who are kind-hearted have unknowingly left their children defenseless against failure. the generation born between 1980 and 2001 grew up playing sports where scores and performance were played down because “everyone is a winner.” and their report cards sounded more positive (正面的) than ever before. as a result, stanford university professor carol dweck, phd, calls them “the overpraised generation.” dweck has been studying how people deal with failure for 40 years. her research has led her to find out two clearly different mind-sets that have a great effect on how we react to it. heres how they work: a fixed mind-set is grounded in the belief that talent (才能) is genetic youre a born artist, point guard, or numbers person. the fixed mind-set believes its sure to succeed without much effort and regards failure as personal shame. when things get difficult, its quick to blame, lie, and even stay away from future difficulties. on the other hand, a growth mind-set believes that no talent is entirely heaven-sent and that effort and learning make everything possible. because the ego (自尊) isnt on the line as much, the growth mind-set sees failure as a chance rather than shame. when faced with a difficulty, its quick to rethink, change and try again. in fact, it enjoys this experience. we are all born with growth mind-sets. (otherwise, we wouldnt be able to live in the world.) but parents, teachers, and instructors often push us into fixed mind-sets by encouraging certain actions and misdirecting praise. dwecks book, mind-set: the new psychology of success, and online instructional program explain this in depth. but she says there are many little things you can start doing today to make sure that your children, grandchildren and even you are never defeated by failure.32. a fixed mind-set person is probably one who _ . a. cannot share his ideas with others b. cares a lot about personal safety c. doesnt want to work hard d. can succeed with the help of teachers33. what does the growth mind-set believe? a. admitting failure is shameful. b. talent comes with ones birth. c. scores should be highly valued. d. getting over difficulties is enjoyable.34. what does the author think about the present generation? a. they dont do well at school. b. they are often misunderstood. c. they are given too much praise. d. are eager to win in sports. 35. what should parents do for their children based on dwecks study? a. help them grow with praise. b. prevent them from making mistakes. c. guide them in doing little things. d. encourage them to learn from failures. 第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。how to make friends friendship is a very important human relationship and everyone needs good friends. good friendship has many benefits. it offers companionship, improves self-worth and promotes good health. there are times in our lives such as when we have recently moved into a new town, or changed our jobs or schools. such changes often leave us without a friend. 36 .but for many of us the process is difficult and requires courage. below are some helpful suggestions on how to make and keep friends. 1. associate with others. the first step to making friends is associating with other people. you can go to public places to meet new people. besides, you will need to make yourself known by becoming an active member of such places. 2. start a conversation starting a conversation is the second most important step in making new friends. 37 .you can always start the conversation. being able to make small talk is a very useful skill in relating with other people. 3. 38 choosing friends with common interests is important in building friendship as these interests would always bring you and your friend together. hanging out will always be a pleasant experience. 4. let it grow. it is a good thing to stay in touch. however, try not to press your new friend with calls, messages or visits as this would likely wear him or her out and finally you may lose your friend. 39 .the best friendships are the ones that grow naturally. 5. enjoy your friendship the best way to enjoy your friendship is to allow your friends to be themselves. 40 .try not to change them from who they are to what you want them to be. become the kind of friend you will want your friend to be to you. a. making new friends comes easy for some people.b. for a friendship to develop you need to stay in touch.c. so you will need to give your friend time to react to you.d. try not to find fault with your friends. e. do things together. f. be cheerful. g. do not wait to be spoken to.第三部分 英语知识运用（共两节，满分45分）第一节：完形填空（共20小题；每小题1.5分，满分30分）阅读下面短文，掌握其大意，然后从41-60各题所给的四个选项（a、b、c和d）中，选出最佳选项。last spring, i was fortunate to be chosen to participate in an exchange study program. in my application letter, i was careful to41how much i wanted to see france; evidently, my excitement really came through in my words. once i42that i was going, all i could think about was the fun of foreign travel and making all sorts of new and43friends. while traveling was inspiring and meeting people was44, nothing about my term in france was what i45.the moment i arrived in paris, i was46by a nice french couple who would become my host parents. my entire experience was joyous and exciting47i received some shocking news from my program coordinator(协调人): there had been a death in my host parents extended family. they had to travel outside france for several weeks. that afternoon, i had to48out of one familys house and into another. the exchange coordinator told me id have a49this time and asked whether i could share a bedroom with an english speaker. to avoid the temptation (诱惑) to50my native language, i asked not to be51with an english-speaking roommate. when i got to my new room, i52myself to my new roommate paolo, a brazilian(巴西人) the same age as i, who i was surprised to find playing one of my favorite cds! in just a few hours, we knew wed be good friends for the rest of the53.i left france with many54, so when people ask me what my favorite part of the trip was, they are always55to hear me talk about my brazilian friend paolo and the scores of weekdays in class, weeknights on the town, and weekends56france we enjoyed together. i love how people57seem so different, but end up being so58. the most valuable lesson i gain from studying in france wasnt just to respect the french people59to respect all people, for your next best friend could be just a continent away. i would recommend an exchange program to anyone who wants to experience foreign culture and gain meaningful60.41. a. discuss b. announce c. express d. argue42. a. knew b. proved c. warmed d. determined43. a. stubborn b. anxious c. universal d. interesting44. a. boring b. upsetting c. exciting d. promising45. a. doubted b. liked c. expected d. feared46. a. spotted b. witnessed c. greeted d. supported47. a. while b. when c. since d. until48. a. move b. travel c. walk d. rush49. a. housekeeper b. leader c. roommate d. colleague50. a. learn b. appreciate c. speak d. master51. a. combined b. fitted c. involved d. placed52. a. added b. adapted c. devoted d. introduced53. a. term b. week c. month d. vacation54. a. presents b. suit
