Terasa Hill did not intend to do something unplanned. It began when Terasa was observing a
horse auction （拍卖）. A chestnut: racehorse was for sale? “She was the most beautifil thing
l’d ever seen, though it had an injured leg,” said Terasa.
When the bidding started, Terasa surprised herself by stepping in. Finally, Terasa became the
new owner of Sierra, and Sierra, limping (跛) and hut twith pain from a broken knee, became a
labour of love for Terasa. After three long months of nursing her under the guidance of a local
animal doctor, the leg recovered.
It wasn’t only Sierra’s leg that needed to recover; Sierra needed to releam how to trust
people. Terasa thought the best way to win Sierra's trust and fondness was to feed her treats.
Terasa kept providing Sierra with many treats, but none passed the sniff (嗅) test. Desperate,
Terasa experimented by making her own mixture of molasses and grains, which she baked in
her own kitchen. The cookies were a hit with Sienra and other horses, sending Terasa’s life in a
new direction.
Her treats, called “Barnies”, were sold to a local store and like hotcakes, within months local
businessmen began demanding for more. Terasa's kitchen was no longer big enough for the
increased demand, moving her operation to an Oshawa company.Then a serious health problem threatened to ruin her plans. Terasa called upon the same
resolution that had helped her save Sierra to help her overcome her own illness. Family and
friends came to her rescue and kept Bannies Ltd. going. Almost a year later, health y and more
re solute than ever, Terasa found a national distributor and Bainies began selling in 144 stores
across Canada.
And what about Sierra, the inspiration for all this success and change? The horse has fully
recovered and has become a wonderful riding horse.
24. Why did Terasa create her own cookies?
A. To show superb cooking skills. B. To provide a special diet for Sierra.
C. To find a way to bond with the horse. D. To lay the foundation for her business.
25. Which best describes Terasa according to paragraph 3?
A. Inflexible. B. Pessimistic. C. Confident. D. Determined.
26. Why is the last paragraph an effective conclusion?
A. It raises a valuable question.
B. It provides surprising information.
C. It returns to the topic of the opening paragraph.
D. It continues the focus of the paragraph before it.
27. What is the text mainly about?
A. A remarkable encounter. B. A famous food company.
C. A rescue of a weak horse. D. A care er from previous devotion.

The sound of leaves underfoot is usually associated with autumn. But this year, it was the
soundtrack to summer walks across Europe, as maximum temperature records fell and the
continent suffered its worst drought in 500 years.
The drought had been building for months after a dry winter and spring,but it was worse by a
series of fierce heatwaves over the summer, says Sim on Parry at the UK Centre for Ecology
&Hydrology. In France, nuclear power plants were foreed to reduce their output as low river
flows meant there wasn't enough water to cool their reactors. Water levels on the Rhine river
dropped so far that ships loaded with goods in Germany and the Netherlands, including coal and
petrol, were unable to travel. Besides, farmers saw crops wither(枯萎). Harvests of soya-beans
and sunflower seeds were predicted to fall by between12 and 16 per cent.
This was a crisis caused in large part by climate change, says Richard Allan, who is also at
the University of Reading.“Warming due to human--aused climate change made this event much
more extreme,” he says. Studies suggest that the drought was made at least 20 times more likely
by global warming.
However, that missing rainfall ends up somewhere, says Peter Gleick at the Pacific Institute
in California. This years disastrous floods in countries including Australia and Pakistan are the
“flip side” of the droughts, he says. “The droughts and the extreme floods that we are seeing are
tied together, and are part and parcel of the broader challenge of climate change,”says Gleick.
In the wake of a drought, it is critical that nature gets time to recover. But for Europe, this
was the second severe drought in four years. “My grass has already recovered from this
summer... but if I had a tree that survived it, that would take 10 years or more to get back to a
normal state,” says Niko Wanders at Utrecht University in the Netherlands.
28. What is the author’s purpose in mentioning the sound?
A. To show the seasonal cycle. B. To describe the beauty of autumn.
C. To emphasize the dry weather. D. To clarify trees’ survival mode.
29. What is paragraph 2 of the text mainly about?
A. The reduction of river water. B. The duration of the drought.
C. The causes of various losses. D. The consequences of the disaster.
30. Which is probably the best way to tackle climate change according to the text?
A. Expanding climate monitoring. B. Improving human behavior.
C. Promoting natural restoration. D. Balancing water distribution.31. What is the author's attitude toward the climate change trend in Europe?
A. Conservative. B. Unclear. C. Concemed. D. Hopeful.
D
Most of us would like to be more creative, but we assume there is little we can do about it.
Psychology professor K. Anders Ericsson claims that with enough practice, any of us can
become experts. However, he is quick to add that this requires a specific kind of practice that
Ericsson calls ‘deliberate practice’: that is, pushing beyond one's comfort zone and setting goals
that are above one's current level of performance. He says he has yet to find the limits on being
successful and he doesn't believe them to be real.
Ericsson has looked primarily at artistic and athletic skills, but can these findings apply to
creativity? Most experts agree that even if most people cannot hope to become creative
geniuses, they can to become more creative through practice. Psychologists claim that there are
actually two levels of creativity, which they refer to as ‘Big C’ and ‘small c’. Big C creativity
applies to breakthrough ideas, ones that may change the course of a field or even history. Small
c creativity refers to everyday creative problem solving, like creating a new recipe or improving
a process, which psychologists subdivide further into similar and different thinking. Similar
thinking involves examining all the facts and arriving at a single solution. In contrast, different
thinking involves coming up with many possible solutions. What most people think of as
creativity generally involves different thinking and can be taught, practised and learnt.
Even with practice, different thinking alone cannot make one creative, however. Scott
Barry Kaufman, a cognitive psychologist, says that most creative people share one personality
quality: openness to new experience. Since this quality and these processes have been
identified, less creative people can try to emulate them. Normally, we tend to reproduce what
we already know because creative ideas move us into unfamiliar territory involving risks and
following the usual behaviors is comfortable.
Moving outside of our comfort zone, engaging in deliberate practice and tolerating
contradictory ideas, risk and failure are all things we can leam to do better.It is unlikely that
doing so will transform any of us into creative geniuses, but it does have the potential to
increase our level of creativity.
32. Why does Ericsson think he can't find the limits?
A. No restrictions exist. B. Practice makes perfect.
C. Each one can succeed. D. The goal is ambitious.
33. Which of the following is an example of ‘small c’?
A. Settling in out er space. B. Building a plastic doghouse.
C. Developing robots to look after the old. D. Explaining the theory of evolution in class.
34. What does the underlined word “ emulate ” in paragraph 3 mean?
A. Justify. B. Limit. C. Copy. D. Assess.
35. What message does the author seem to convey in the text?
A. We can learn to be more creative. B. Life is full of various challenges.
C. It's better to take deliberate practice. D. Most can become creative geniuses.

Other people’s moods can provide you with critical clues about how things are going. 39 Focus
on what you see, hear, and pick up on in other people.

第二节（满分25分）
阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Despite their genetic similarities, my twin sisters Lenna and Elsa were quite different. Lenna
was a recognized athlete in our community. We all expected her to attain a scholarship on one
field or another, but she lacked a certain edge to her reasoning. Elsa got along well with
everyone who works in the library, but she had the grace (优雅)of a two-legged table. They had
found few occasions to relate with one another and grew distant. Had I not lived with them, I
would not have known them to be sisters.
They did, however, share a drive for success that seemed to become more successful around
the same time during senior year. After a track and field season, Lenna was offered full
scholarship at a reputable state university near our home, so long as she maintained a 3.0 GPA.
Elsa had a more important thing to do: she was one perfect report card away from seizing the
chance of making a speech at a graduation ceremony from her opponent, Chet Good weather. At
the end of the sixth Wednesday of the fourth marking period, as the sisters unfolded the printedreport cards, their smiles turned to tears: Lenna was getting a “D” in science and Elsa was
getting a “C” in gym class.
Lenna and Elsa came home at the same time and were surprised to find one another
disappointed. As they argued with one another about who had suffered the greater misfortune,
they realized that the other’s problem sounded easy to solve. Elsa barked, “Your problem isn’t
even a problem. I could pass that test casily and I can show you how to as well.” Lenna
retorted(反驳),“Well, all you need to do to get an ‘A’s to shorten your mile time to five or ten
minutes. Two weeks of training with me and the coach will try to have you on the track
team.”The girls exchanged glances and came to a quick agreement.
