Unlike many of my classmates, my idol (偶像) is not a film star or a famous writer. Neither is
he a world leader, nor an important person from 51 . My idol is my dad.
Most people believe that a man should go out and work. However, when I was a baby, I was
very ill and needed attention all the time. Since my mother and father both worked, and my
grandparents lived very 52 , this was a big problem. My dad knew how much my mum loved
her job, so he stopped working to stay at home and look after me.
Many men in this 53 would want their wives to stay with the child, but my dad always
thinks about others before himself. My dad 54 took a job and worked at night. He chose the
job so that he would only be out of the house when I was sleeping.
Ever since then, my dad has helped and 55 me in everything I do. The most important thing
he taught me was never to 56 . I remember when I was learning to ride a bike. My dad would
run behind me for hours. He held the back of the bicycle so that I would not fall. I felt so 57
because I knew he was near. I did not 58 when he stopped holding me. Soon, I was riding by
myself.
My family is not rich, and we do not own a big house or an expensive car. My dad is my idol
because he has shown me that the most important things in life are family and love.

A. Choose the best answer（根据短文内容，选择最恰当的答案): ( 12分)
If you want to find out a piece of information about anything, the best place to search for it is
Wikipedia. This online encyclopedia is written by thousands of people around the world. Anyone
can add or change the information if he or she finds it not correct or not well written. In this way,
people who know a lot about a certain subject can write about it even if they are not university
professors.
What is more, Wikipedia includes articles written in about 253 languages. This fact makes it
one of the few websites (网站) on the Internet that are truly international. It was started in 2001 by
Larry Sanger and Jimmy Wales, as a free online English-language encyclopedia project. By April
2008, over 10 million articles had been put on Wikipedia. A quarter of the articles are in English.
Wikipedia is also a place where people can find the latest news.
However, Wikipedia has its own problems. There have been many complaints that some of the
information on Wikipedia is not accurate and some important subjects are not included. This has
led to arguments between the writers of the articles. The people running Wikipedia say that the
accuracy of the information is improving and that it is one of the top 20 visited websites on the
Internet.So, if you are looking for some information, why not try Wikipedia?
74. Wikepedia is .
A) a computer game B) an online magazine
C) a free university D) a website encyclopedia
75. People who write on Wikepedia .
A) know much about a certain subject B) likes writing different stories
C) should be university professors D) are usually famous scientists
76. Wikipedia is truly international because .
A) everything is written in English B) the articles are in about 253 languages
C) there are over 10 million articles D) each writer can write in various languages
77. People didn’t see Wikepedia on the Internet until .

A) caused B) stopped C) become D) reported
B. Choose the words or expressions and complete the passage（选择最恰当的单词或词语完成
短文）:（12分）
For many people, having your own business sounds like the perfect job. You can do work that
you love. You can set your own timetable, and wear jeans to work. You never have to 80 a
boss, and you make all decisions yourself. You can even raise your salary any time you want.
But the reality is different. “Having your own business can be 81 ,” says David Paik. After
working for an advertising agency for six years, he started a website design business at home. His
income in the first two months was $0. 82 , he got a big project creating a website for a
magazine. Then he had a new problem: his timetable. “I was working twelve hours a day, seven
days a week, because I didn’t have employees to help me.” Today, Paik Web Design is successful,
but David says, “I really wasn’t prepared to be a business owner. I didn’t 83 the difficulty.”
With no boss, it’s easy to take too much time off—and get too little work done. With no
workmates, you might feel bored or 84 . You have to pay for your own holidays. If you make a
bad business decision, you could lose all the money. For all of these reasons, more than half of all
new businesses fail within one year.
Another problem is balancing work with personal life. As a business owner, you can’t just stopat 5 p.m. and forget about your work until tomorrow. “Even when I’m watching TV in the
evening, I’m always thinking about my 85 and projects,” says David Paik.
Still, hundreds of people around the world start businesses every day, and most enjoy the
experience. “There are lots of advantages to having your own business,” says Denise Williams,
the owner of a women’s clothing store. “You can decide exactly how to do your work, how much
money you want to make, and who will work for you.”
80. A) talk about B) listen to C) hear from D) look after
81. A) hard B) expensive C) foolish D) strange
82. A) As a result B) In addition C) For example D) At last
83. A) memorize B) realize C) have D) solve
84. A) angry B) funny C) lonely D) sorry
85. A) lessons B) holidays C) customers D) friends
C. Read the passage and fill in the blanks with proper words（在短文的空格内填入适当的词，

Dear Peter
I hope everything is going well. I have something very special to tell you. Last week I went into
space for the first time!
My parents visited space last year, but I was too y 86 to go with them. Anyway, a month
ago I had my birthday party. It was very exciting when I opened my presents. There were lots of
wonderful games, but I was really happy when I saw a t 87 for a space flight!
Two weeks after my birthday, I had to go on a short training course. It was quite difficult, and I
had to study very hard. L 88 , I got a good mark in the exam in the end, and my parents were
able to b 89 the date of the space flight. I began to look forward to that day.
Finally the day arrived, and my parents took me to the airport. I got on the plane with ten other
passengers. We took off from the runway and c 90 higher and higher. After about an hour, we
went down from the plane into the space shuttle. The plane then dropped the space shuttle at very
high altitude(高度). The engines in the space shuttle started, and thirty minutes later we were in
space.
I admit that for a few seconds I felt a little n 91 when I sat in the space shuttle. However,
when we left the Earth’s atmosphere, everyone began to float(飘浮). It was great fun! I felt so free
in space, and it was really amazing to see some other p 92 out of the window though I had seen
them many times in my geography book.
My first space flight only lasted fifteen minutes, but I will never forget it. I also have some good
news for you. My parents say they want to go back into space next year. They say I can bring a
friend. Would you like to come with us? I hope to hear from you soon.Mark
D. Answer the questions（根据短文内容回答下列问题): ( 12分)
One of my earliest and most unforgettable experiences was the day my father took me to see
my first football match. I was nine years old and crazy about football. All my friends at schools
had been to see their favourite teams but I had never been to see a live (现场的) game.
“You’re not old enough,” my father said when I asked him to take me. But all my friends had
gone. In the playground we talked about our favourite players and discussed how well we
thought they would do on Saturday. I knew everything about them, but I had never actually seen
them play.
Then one cold and bright winter morning my father told me to get dressed in warm clothes and
hat and to get ready to go out later in the morning. “Where are we going, Dad?” I asked. “You’ll
see”, is all he replied.
We drove in the car for hours, it seemed. I did not know where we were going and I finally fell
asleep in the car. The next thing I knew my father was shaking me awake and telling me to get
out. I found myself outside a tall round building and from behind wall I could hear a huge noise.
We walked around the corner and I saw the largest number of people I had ever seen, all
pushing their way through huge iron gates into the building—a football stadium.
“Here we are,” said Dad cheerfully.
“Where are we, Dad?” I asked. “This is the home of the Chester City football team,” Dad
answered. “I first came here when I was a young boy to see this team. I thought you would like to
see them too.”
The next two hours passed like a dream. I watched the players kick and shoot the ball, and I
shouted and cheered along with the other people near me. When one of the Chester players kicked
a goal, we all cheered. That was the only score of the game. Our team had won.
I was so excited that on Monday morning at school I couldn’t stop telling everyone what had
happened. It was an unforgettable experience. And even today I am still the fan of Chester City
Football Club!
93. The writer had an unforgettable experience at the age of nine, didn’t he?
94. What did the writer look forward to at that time?
95. Where did the writer and his father go one winter morning?
96. Did they go there by bus or by car?97. Which team won the game that day?
98. How did the writer show his excitement about his experience?

Franco is a waiter in New York City. He has one week off every August for summer
holiday. Last summer he decided to take a trip to San Francisco. He didn’t want to go by
plane. He really wanted to see the United States, so he decided to take the train from NewYork to San Francisco.
The train left the station in New York City on Monday at 10:30 P.M. Franco tried to sleep
that night, but he couldn’t because he was too excited. He knew this trip was a great idea!
During the long trip, he looked out of the window and watched the country go by. He saw
large cities, small towns, and of course the beautiful countryside. He saw peaceful farms,
mountains covered with snow and the amazing desert.
For five days, Franco didn’t get off the train. He often took walks through the train and
talked with the other passengers. He had all his meals in the dining car.
Finally, at 2:45 P.M. on Friday, the train stopped in San Francisco. Franco was happy to
get off the train! He called some of his friends and they got together and ate at an Italian
restaurant. On Saturday he went to visit a museum and had a good time there.
On Sunday, Franco took a 9:20 A.M. flight back to New York. He looked out of the
window of the airplane and imagined the desert, mountains, farms, and cities below him.
After a while, he closed his eyes and started to make plans for his next summer holiday!
