A

Most people think of racing when they see greyhounds(灰狗) and believe they need lots of exercise. They can actually be quite lazy! Greyhounds are good at fast races but not long-distance running. They do need regular exercise but they like to run for a short burst and then get back on the bed or a comfortable seat. Another misunderstanding is that greyhounds must be aggressive(好斗的) because they are big in size. In fact greyhounds love people and are gentle with children.

Greyhounds can live for 12-14 years but usually only race for two or three years, and after that they make great pets. They don’t need a lot of space, don’t make a lot of noise, and don’t eat a lot for their size.

Normally, greyhounds can be as tall as 90 cm. There is, however, a small-sized greyhound, which stands only 33 cm. Greyhounds come in a variety of colors. Grey and yellowish-brown are the most common. Others include black, white, blue, red and brown or a mix of these.

Greyhounds have smooth body coats, low body fat and are very healthy. Because they’re slim（苗条的）they don’t have the leg problems like other dogs the same height. But they do feel the cold especially since they would much rather be at home in bed than walking around outside. 21.The text is written mainly . A. to tell people how to raise greyhounds B. to let people know more about greyhounds C. to explain why greyhounds are aggressive D. to describe greyhounds of different colors 22.It can be inferred that greyhounds .

Many years ago, when I was fresh out of school and working in Denver， I was driving to my parents’ home in Missouri for Christmas. I stopped at a gas station(加油站) about 50 miles from Oklahoma City, where I was planning to stop and visit a friend. While I was standing in. line at the cash register（收款台）,I said hello to an older couple who were also paying for gas.

I took off, but had gone only a few miles when black smoke poured from the back of my car. I stopped and wondered what I should do. A car pulled up behind me. It was the couple I had spoken to at the gas station. They said they would take me to my friend’s. We chatted on the way into the city, and when I get out of the car, the husband gave me his business card.

I wrote him and his wife a thank-you note for helping me. Soon afterward, I received a Christmas present from them. Their note that came with it said that helping me had made their holidays meaningful.

Years later, I drove to a meeting in a nearby town in the morning, In the late afternoon I returned to my car and found that I’d left the lights on all day, and the battery(电池) was dead. Then I noticed that the Friendly Ford dealership-a shop selling cars-was right next door. I walked over and found two salesmen in the showroom.

“Just how friendly is Friendly Ford?” I asked and explained my trouble. They quickly drove a pickup truck to my car and started it. They would accept no payment; so when I got home; I wrote them a note to say thanks, I received a letter back from one of the salesmen, No one had ever taken the time to write him and say thank you, and it meant a lot, he said.

“Thank you”- two powerful words. They’re easy to say and mean so much. 25.The author planned to stop at Oklahoma City . A.to visit a friend B.to see his parents

C

Since my retirement（退休）from teaching music in 2001, I have spent a good deal of time painting as an artist. I actually began drawing again in the summer of 1995 when my father died. So perhaps I was trying to recover from the loss of my father, or maybe it was just that it brought back memories of him. In any case, I drew pen and ink animals and landscapes（风景画）much influenced（影响）by Kernel and St. John for five years.

For some strange reason, I had been waiting until my retirement to start doing watercolors again, but as soon as I walked out of the school door for the last time I picked up my brushes and rediscovered Andrew Wythe, who quickly became my favorite artist. I had looked through all the art books I had on my shelves and found his watercolors to be the closest to how I thought good watercolors should look. So I painted landscapes around Minnesota for three years and tried out many other types of painting. However, watercolors remained my first choice, and I think I did my best work there, showing my paintings at a number of art exhibitions.

Art is now together with my piano playing and reading. There is a time for everything in my

world, and it is wonderful to have some time doing what I want to do. As Confucius once said,” At seventy I can follow my heart’s desire.” 29.What is the text mainly about?

A.Learning to paint in later life. B.How to paint watercolors. C.An artist-turned teacher. D.Life after retirement. 30.The author started drawing again in 1995 because . A.he hoped to draw a picture of his father B.he couldn’t stop missing his father C.he had more time after retirement D.he liked animals and landscapes

31.We can infer from the text that the author . A.had been taught by Kernel and St. John B.painted landscapes in Minnesota for 5 years C.believed Wythe to be the best in watercolors D.started his retirement life at the age of seventy

32.How does the author probably feel about his life as an artist? A.Very enjoyable. B.A bit regretful. C.Rather busy. D.Fairly dull.

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，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。选项中有两项为多余选项。

“How are you?” is a nice question. It’s a friendly greeting that people in the United States use. __36__ It’s a question that often doesn’t need an answer. The person who asks, “How are you?” expects to hear the answer “Fine,” even if the person isn’t fine. The reason is that “How are you?” isn’t really a question and “Fine” isn’t really an answer. ___37_.

Sometimes, people don’t say exactly what they mean. For example, when someone asks “Do you agree?” the other person may be thinking, “No, I don’t. I think you are wrong.” It isn’t polite to disagree very strongly, so he might say, “I am not so sure.” __38__

People also don’t say exactly what they are thinking when they finish talking to other people. For example, many conversations over the phone end when one person says, “I’ve got to go now,” or the person who wants to hang up gives an excuse such as “Someone is at the door,” or “Something is burning on the stove.” __39__ The person who wants to hang up simply doesn’t want to talk any more, but it isn’t polite to say so. An excuse is polite, and it doesn’t hurt the other person’s feelings.

Whether they are greeting each other, talking about an opinion, or ending a conversation, people often don’t say exactly what they are thinking. ___40__

A. This is a nice way to say that you don’t agree with someone. B. It’s very good not to tell the truth to our family. C. However, “How are you?” is also an unusual question. D. The excuse may be real, or not.

E. They are common ways of saying “hello” or hi”. F. If you disagree with others, they will hate you.

G. This is one way of being nice to people, and it’s a part of the game of language.

Wasting food has become a big problem in the developed world. While some people there throw away unwanted food, people in other 61 (part) of the world face food shortages. It’s an 62 (astonish) fact that a third of the world’s food is wasted each year, which is enough 63 (feed) a billion hungry people.

Most of the wasted food (bury) in the landfill sites. 65 (unlucky), this causes greenhouse gases which eventually lead to global warming and climate change.

In Denmark, a woman called Salina Jull has been working hard to deal with 66 problem. She thinks people shouldn’t waste food, 67 rich they are. She persuaded some supermarkets to stop 68 (sell) their items (物品) in quantity so that people bought only what they needed. Also, she produced a leftovers cookbook and set up an education program in schools, 69 food waste was rather common. Now the effects are quite noticeable.

Clearly, we need to think 70 (two) when we put something in our shopping basket, and we should make the most of the food we have—use up our leftovers or even share our extra food with our friends and neighbors.
