3.I will always remember my mother’s last few days in this world. On February 14th, 2008, my class went on a field trip to the beach. I had so much fun. When we returned to school, my teacher told me to go to the headmaster’s office. When I got into the office, I saw a police officer. Suddenly I realized something was wrong. The police officer told me what had happened and we went to pick my sister up. After that, we went to the hospital and waited. Time went slowly. Finally, we got to see our mother. It was terrible. On the next day, the headmaster came and told my two teachers what had happened. I was taking a rest that day. I knew it had something to do with my mother. I kept thinking that she either died or had gotten better. How I wished that she had gotten better. When my teacher took me outside, my sister ran up to me. She started crying, “She’s gone. Teresa, mommy’s gone. She’s dead.” I couldn’t believe it. We jumped into the car and drove straight to the hospital. Most of my family were there. The silence was terrible. I knew I had to say goodbye. Today when I look back, I still miss my mother very much, but I know that I will live. My mother was a strong mother, who had the biggest heart. My mother was an angel walking on the earth. I will always remember her as living. When someone is asked who their hero is, they usually say someone famous, like Michael Jordan or Britney Spears.

4.Part 3 Reading Comprehension (40 points)Task 1 Read the following passage. Choose the best answer.My hobby made me money!We all know that hobbies can be a great way of relaxing, learning new things and making new friends. But did you know that some hobbies can even make you money? This is what Vanessa Hughes found out last year.The nineteen-year-old told us: “I’ve always loved cooking and baking. Since I was seven or eight years old, I’ve been in the kitchen making my family meals and snacks. Last summer, it was my best friend’s birthday, and I decided to organize a surprise party for her. I didn’t have enough money to buy lots of ready-made food, so I made my own.”The surprise was a huge success and Vanessa was surprised when people kept asking her “Who prepared all this delicious food?” At the end of the party, a friend asked her if she would cook for his mother’s birthday party. Vanessa said: “He offered me money, but I wouldn’t take money from a friend. I just said I’d do it.”The next party Vanessa cooked for went equally well, and by the end of that one, Vanessa had three more bookings for parties over the next month. She said: “By then I realized I was going to have to start charging some money for my services. At the beginning, though, I only asked for a small amount to cover the ingredients I used.”Since these early days, Vanessa hasn’t stopped. She’s now busy every weekend, cooking for parties. “I love it”, she says “… and I feel so lucky that my hobby is helping me earn money. I’m going to use the money to help me to go to college—to study courses of catering! 3. Why did Vanessa not want to take money for her cooking? 选项：A、She didn’t need the money. B、She didn’t think her cooking was good enough to pay for. C、She didn’t want to take money from friends. D、She wasn’t sure how much to ask for.

6.[单选题]Passage 1 At ten years old，I borrowed a book from the library that had the word “mistress” in the title. Granted，the cover art featured a golden carriage resembling that of Cinderella’s. My mother did not notice this book amid my stack of 20 until I was at home reading it. The book was immediately taken away by my mother when she found it. Then she led me back to the library. I can still remember how embarrassed I was as my mother explained that I needed reading material that was different from that book. The librarian on duty was a middle-aged lady, tall and beautiful. Smiling kindly, she walked from behind the counter and signaled me to follow her. Her walk was so graceful that she could easily have qualified for a part in ballet. “Here you are，” she said. “It’s called I Capture the Castle，by Dodie Smith.” I looked at her and stood motionless for a few seconds. Obviously, it was not the kind of book I was looking for. “It’s very different,” she said, noticing my disappointment. I accepted her recommendation. I took the book home, curled up on our window seat, and started reading: “I write this sitting in the kitchen sink. I can’t say that I am really comfortable, but that is the only part of the kitchen where there is any daylight left. And I have found that sitting in a place where you have never sat before can be inspiring —I wrote my very best poem while sitting on the hen-house.” I was hooked. Absolutely hooked. I wanted to be a writer, too. I also loved to write in strange places. I never told the librarian how much that book meant to me. How it spurred my writing dreams to the point that I took journals when walking through the woods and paused to take notes. Two weeks ago, I drove to meet my mother for a Christmas lunch in my hometown. In an old-fashioned teashop, I caught sight of a familiar figure—it was the very librarian who had changed my life! Sixteen years had passed, but—for a moment— time stood still. There were a few more wrinkles (皱纹) around her eyes, and she seemed to be in a fragile condition while sitting quietly at a table. I rose to my feet and moved excitedly toward her，“You work at the library! You once showed me I Capture the Castle! I’m a writer now! That’s still my favorite book!” The woman paused and smiled kindly, with a blank expression on her face. But then she tipped her head. I at once realized that it was her age or mental condition that had kept her from understanding me. After a while, she rose slowly and a nurse accompanied her towards the door. As I watched her go, I wondered how many lives we change without realizing what we do is significant. For all that woman had really done was lend me a book. But it had captured my world.2. How does the author describe the librarian’s walk when they first met? A She walked with elegance. B She walked with pride. C She walked with calmness. D She walked with dignity. E F

7.You know how it is when we get together. They talk about impossible dreams. “If I won the lottery (彩票), I would …”, “If I had plenty of money, I would …” But I never told anyone about my dream. I was afraid they would laugh if they knew. My aunt died and left everything to me. So I went around the world in search of the perfect woman that I really loved.I first went to America, but I didn’t find I was looking for. The women I met were either too thin or too fat, too quiet or too noisy. So I started off for Spain. Most of the women I met were much too self-confident. Then I went to China. The women there were lovely, but much too shy, and I like taller women. Finally, I found myself back in my own country. I was sad.Well, you can never guess what happened. In my own country, I found the woman I was looking for! Funnily enough, she lived near me, and I was surprised that I had not noticed her before. We met in the local shop. She dropped her bag. I picked it up and give it to her. I knew at that moment that she was the woman for me. But I wanted to be very careful. I didn’t want to say or do anything that might frighten her away. So I just made small talk as we walked back to the car park.Back home, I planned to win her heart. After a few more meetings, I finally invited her to have dinner with me. She accepted. Everything went well during dinner and seemed to enjoy the food. Finally, I told her about my search.“That’s amazing (令人惊奇的)！” she said. “I’ve just come into a lot of money, too, and I have decided to go round the world in search of the perfect man. I think I’ve found him.” Question： What’s the writer’s dream? 选项： A:To win the lottery.; B:To have plenty of money.; C:To travel around the world.; D:To marry a perfect woman.; E:To meet many women.
