The water tap was leaking (漏水) again, and the noise was driving Cassie crazy.
Cassie looked at her watch. It was nearly nine o’clock. She climbed out of bed and stood on a chair by the shelf. Her mother’s Mr. Fix-It Book was on the top shelf. Cassie stepped down quietly. She read the book quickly until she found the page she was looking for, and then began to read carefully.
Next, Cassie opened a box in the kitchen and picked out the tools she needed — a hammer, a wrench, and several small things. It was no easy job for her to do the repair, and she tried several times. Finally, the water tap was in pieces. One by one, she carefully laid them out on the table. That way she would know how they went back. While this was going on, her cat walked over to watch what she was doing.
Cassie worked late into the night. At one point, she thought she was done. Oops! A small piece that she had forgotten still lay on the table. Slowly Cassie took the water tap apart（分开）one more time. This time she made sure everything was in place. She turned the water tap on and then off. One…two…three…She waited a full minute. There was no leak! Cassie smiled and put the tools back into the box. Then she went back into bed.
The next morning, Dad was in the kitchen when Cassie got up.
“Notice anything, Dad?” she asked.
He looked around and listened. “Hmm, something’s missing… I can’t find out what it is… Wait, it’s too quiet in here!”
“That’s right,” Cassie said. “Something is missing. I fixed the water tap. It doesn’t leak
any more.”
“That’s my girl,” Dad said, “It’s a good thing you are really like your mother.”
51. The noise of ______ was driving Cassie crazy.
A. the tap B. her cat C. her father D. the clock

More and more people like bicycling and it is no surprise. It is fun, healthy and good for the environment. Maybe that’s why there are 1.4 billion bicycles and only 400 million cars on roads
worldwide today. Bikes can take you almost anywhere, and there is no oil cost!

Like many people, I have no clear idea about heroes. At some point, we all wonder if we need a hero and what a hero really is.
Although there are a lot of differences in cultures, heroes around the world generally share a number of characteristics (特点) which give us cou rage and make us want to learn from them.
A hero does something worth talking about. A hero has a special story to tell and people think highly of it. But a hero is not just the person with great fame (声誉) .
A hero has powers (力量) larger than himself. Some people want to live like a hero, and they have to experience life with new and further meaning. A sure test for would-be heroes is what or whom they serve. What do they want to live and die for? If the answer suggests they serve only their own fame, they may be famous persons but not heroes.
A hero has a vision from the mountaintop. He has the power to move people. He creates new possibilities. Without Gandhi, India might still be part of Britain. Without Martin Luther King, Jr., Americans might take different buses, eat in different restaurants, go for walks in different parks, and shop in different stores because of the different colors of their skin.
There might be changes in society without a hero, but the speed of change would be rather slow. Thanks to heroes in history, they make the society develop so rapidly.
61. According to this passage, a hero is a person who always .
A. gives us courage B. thinks highly of others
C. shares great fame D. stands on the mountaintop
62. If you want to live like a hero, you should .
A. experience a new and meaningful life B. listen to something worth talking about
C. serve your own fame and try to be famous D. know where and how you want to live
63. The underlined word “vision” in the passage means “ ”.
A. 风景 B. 想象 C. 远见 D. 形象
64. Black people in America used to before Martin Luther King, Jr.
A. shop at the white’s stores B. take buses with the white
C. take walks in the white’s parks D. eat in restaurants without the white
65. What can we learn from the passage?
A. We don’t need heroes anymore at some point now.
B. Heroes are all the same though different in cultures.
C. People get power from heroes to move to a new place.
D. Our society has developed faster because of heroes in history.

21.A 由“不要紧”可知“没有人可以让任何人都满意”。故选A。
22.B try to do sth.意为“努力做某事”，是固定用法，故先排除C、D两项；由“但他们失败了”及“他们打了一架”可知“他们努力不生气”，故B项正确。
23.D be busy doing sth.是固定用法，意为“忙于做某事”，故排除A、C两项；B项后少了介词for，故正确答案是D。句意为“我们都在忙着为即将到来的英语考试做准备”。
24.A 形容词修饰不定代词时，形容词要后置；肯定句中用something，否定句和疑问句中用anything，故选A。
25.C 本题表示在以祈使句为条件下的相反假设，是“祈使句+or+陈述句”结构，or意为“否则，要不然”。故选C。
26.B be home to...是固定用法，意为“是……的家园”。
27.C until“直到……为止”；unless“除非”；though“尽管”；because“因为”。四个选项只有though放在句中才能使句意完整，符合结构要求。句意为“我喜欢乘火车旅行，尽管它不如乘飞机快”。故选C。
28.A according to“根据，依据”；look forward to“期望”；lead to“导致”；thanks to“多亏”。 根据句子前后的内容可知according to能使句意完整。句意为“根据这篇短文，那是一个激动人心的故事”。故选A。
29.B 表示“百分之……”要用“数词+percent”，percent没有复数形式。故选B。
30.C a number of“许多……；大量……”，作主语时谓语动词用复数；the number of“……的数量”，作主语时谓语动词用单数。故C项正确。
31.C 动词不定式短语作目的状语。
32.C visiting China是现在分词短语作定语，修饰student。
33.B offer to do sth.意为“主动提出做某事”。

37.D so“所以”；but“但是”；therefore“所以”；however“然而”，用于句首时，与句子的其他部分要用逗号隔开。由“他过去不常给他妈妈添麻烦”和空格后面的叙述，特别是第二段的Unfortunately, Martin still caused problems.可知，此处应表转折关系，再由空格后的逗号可知应选D项。
38.C 空格后的more difficult是形容词的比较级，而选项A和D用于修饰形容词或副词原级，选项B是形容词，修饰名词复数，much可修饰比较级，表示程度，故选C。
39.B 由His mother couldn’t afford to pay for her child’s education.可知，为了做到这一点，她不得不工作，所以经常不在家。
40.C look after“照顾，照料”，是动词短语，应用副词修饰，故排除D项，而A、B两项意思不符合语境，well是副词，意为“好，好地”，符合语境“他的妈妈尽可能好地照顾他”。
41.D 由“不幸的是，马丁仍然闯了不少的祸”和“他经常麻烦缠身”可知，他对学习不感兴趣，be interested in意为“对……感兴趣”，故选D。
42.B worried“担心的”；patient“有耐心的”；careful“仔细的”；serious“严肃的”。由“她从未放弃过尽力帮助他”可知：他的妈妈非常有耐心。故选B。
43.A make a decision是固定搭配，意为“下决心”，故选A。
44.D argue with“与……争吵”；say不与with搭配；discuss的搭配为discuss sth. with sb.; talk with“与……谈话”。由后面的with可知，B、C两项首先排除，而A项在此不符合语境，故应选D项。老师说马丁有必要跟他妈妈谈一下。
45.C to one’s surprise 是固定搭配，意为“令某人吃惊的是”，此处surprise用作名词，意为“惊讶，惊奇”。
46.B 分析该句结构可知，空格处在此引导一个表语从句，且在从句中作needed的宾语，what有此双重功能，故选B。which可以引导表语从句，但意为“哪一个”，表示有范围的选择，that可以引导表语从句，但在从句中不作任何成分，how也可以引导表语从句，但只能在从句中作状语。
47.D see“看见”，强调看见的结果；notice“注意”，指注意到某事或某物，强调动作；help“帮助”；watch“注视”，强调状态。分析上下文可知，爸爸虽然不再与我们在一起了，但他一直在注视着我，强调的是一种持续的状态，故选D。
48.A since“自……以来”；before“在……之前”；after“在……之后”；when“当……的时候”。由my father died, I have been afraid of being alone…可知，此处符合“since+一般过去时态的从句，主句用完成时态”这一句型特点，故选A。
49.C always“总是，一直”；hardly“几乎不”；really“确实”；just“仅仅”。由下文的He has been working hard and is now one of the best students in his class.可知，马丁确实发生了变化，故选C。[来源:Z#xx#k.Com]
