第一节：阅读下面四篇短文，从每小题后所给的四个选项中，选出最佳选项。
A
The latest research suggests that the key factor separating geniuses（天才）from the merely accomplished is not I.Q., a generally bad predictor of success. Instead, it’s purposeful practice. Top performers spend more hours practising their craft. If you wanted to picture how a typical genius might develop, you’d take a girl who possessed a slightly above average language ability. It wouldn’t have to be a big talent, just enough so that she might gain some sense of distinction. Then you would want her to meet, say, a novelist, who coincidentally shared some similar qualities. Maybe the writer was from the same town, had the same family background, or shared the same birthday.
This contact would give the girl a vision of her future self. It would give her some idea of a fascinating circle who might someday join. It would also help if one of her parents died when she was 12, giving her a strong sense of insecurity and fuelling a desperate need for success. Armed with this ambition, she would read novels and life stories of writers without end. This would give her a primary knowledge of her field. She’s be able to see new writing in deeper ways and quickly understand its inner workings.
Then she would practise writing. Her practice would be slow, painstaking and error-focused. By practising in this way, she delays the automatizing process. Her mind wants to turn conscious, newly learned skills into unconscious. Automatically performed skills. By practising slowly, by breaking skills down into tiny parts and repeating, she forces the brain to internalize a better pattern of performance. Then she would find an adviser who would provide a constant stream of feedback, viewing her performance form the outside, correcting the smallest errors, pushing her to take on tougher challenges. By now she is redoing problems-how do I get characters into a room-dozens and dozens of times. She is establishing habits of thought she can call upon in order to understand or solve future problems.
The primary quality our young writer possesses is not some mysterious genius. It’s the ability to develop a purposeful, laborious and boring practice routine; the latest research takes some of the magic out of great achievement. But it underlines a fact that is often neglected. Public discussion is affected by genetics and what we’re “hard-wired” to do. And it’s true that genes play a role in our capabilities. But the brain is also very plastic. We construct ourselves through behaviour. Ks5u

A. her adviser forms a primary challenging force to her success.

C. As to the growth of a genius, I.Q. doesn’t matter, but just his/her effort.

HONG KONG - Hong Kong Disneyland is too crowded, a senior Chinese tourism official said today, hinting that another Disney Park is necessary to accommodate demand from China’s huge population.
The comments by Shao Qiwei, director of China’s State Administration of Tourism, came a day after Shanghai’s mayor Han Zheng said the city was preparing to build China’s second Disney theme park.
“China has a very large population. We now have 1.3 billion people. The market is very large. As far as I know, Hong Kong Disneyland is now very crowded,” said Shao, whose comments were broadcast on Hong Kong’s Cable TV.
The Hong Kong theme park, which opened in September, was widely criticized in January when it turned away hundreds of Lunar New Year holiday makers from mainland China because the park was full. Chaos(混乱) erupted when angry crowds tried to force their way into the park.
The embarrassing incident prompted a public apology from Hong Kong Disneyland Managing Director Bill Ernest and a dressing down from Hong Kong’s leader Donald Tsang. Authorities are carefully studying the issue of overcrowding in preparation for the possible building of the Disney park in Shanghai, Shao said.
The official Xinhua News Agency reported Tuesday that no agreement has been reached on the park in Shanghai, quoting senior vice president of Walt Disney Parks and Resorts, Leslie Goodman. Hong Kong Disneyland is a joint venture between The Walt Disney Co. and the local government, which shouldered the bulk of the park’s construction fees.
50. Why is it necessary to build a Disney park in Shanghai?
A. Hong Kong Disneyland can’t meet the need of the large population.
B. Hong Kong Disneyland is too small and very crowded.
C. Hong Kong Disney Park was criticized by tourists.
D. Hong Kong Disneyland is far from the mainland.
51. Hundreds of visitors from Mainland China got angry because ________.
A. the services in the park were not as good as expected
B. they were not allowed to go into the park
C. the park was too crowded
D. chaos happened at the entrance to the park
52. The building of a Disney park in Shanghai ________.
A. has been agreed to by The Walt Disney Co.
B. is financed The Walt Disney Co.
C. will be in the charge of the Shanghai government
D. remains to be discussed with The Walt Disney Co.

There is a common belief among parents that schools are no longer interested in spelling. No school I have taught in has ever considered spelling unimportant as a basic skill. There are, however, quite different ideas about how to teach it, or how much priority (优先) it must be given over general language development and writing ability. The problem is, how to en?courage a child to express himself freely in writing without holding him back with spelling.
If spelling becomes the only point of his teacher’s interest, clearly a bright child will be likely to “play safe”. He will write only words within his spelling range (范围). That’s why teachers often encourage the early use of dictionaries and pay attention to content rather than technical ability.
I was once shocked to read on the bottom of a sensitive piece of writing about a personal experience:“This work is terrible! There are far too many spelling mistakes.” It may have been a sharp criticism(批评) of the pupils technical abilities in writing, but it was also a sad thing for the teacher who had omitted (略过) to read the composition, which contained some beautiful expressions of the child’s deep feelings. The teacher was not wrong to draw atten?tion to the mistakes, but if his priority had centered on the child's ideas, an expression of his disappointment with the presentation would have given the pupil more hope to seek improve?ment.
56. Teachers differ in their opinions about ____, `
A. the difficulties in teaching spelling
B. the role of spelling in general language development
C. the importance of the basic writing skills
D.the necessity of teaching spelling
57. The expression “play safe” probably means ____.
A. to write carefully B. to do as teachers say
C. to use dictionaries frequently D. to avoid using words one is not sure of
58. Teachers encourage the use of dictionaries so that____.
A. students will be able to express their ideas more freely
B. teachers will have less trouble in correcting mistakes
C. students will have more trust in writing
D. students will learn to spell words correctly
59. The writer seems to think that the teacher’s judgement on that sensitive piece of writing is____.
A. reasonable B. unfair C. foolish D. careless
60. The major point discussed in the passage is _______.
A. the importance of developing writing skills
B. the importance of spelling
C. the correct way of marking composition
D. the relationship between spelling and the content of a composition
第二节：根据文章内容，从下面A-F选项中选出能概括每一段主题的最佳选项，选项中有一项为多余。
A.Unwillingness to recognize differences
B.Poor division of responsibilities
C.Children’s overdependency on others
D.Inability to resolve conflicts and disagreements
E.Disagreement on children’s education
F.Insufficient emotional support
Fimaly problems come in all shapes and sizes;some are short-lived and easily managed,while others are more chronic and difficult to handle.Stress points include events such as illness and injury, changing jobs, changing schools, moving and finacialdifficulties. Each family develops its own ways of coping with these stresses,some of which work better than others.Unsuccessful coping can be recognized by a number of characteristic, including the following:
61.
This usually occurs because family members avoid discussing problems or even avoid admitting that problems exist.Some families just have not learned the skills of negotiating or, for some other reason, cannot let go of bad or hurt feelings. Children are likely to pattern their behavior after their parents” behaviour and may learn to refuse to talk about feelings and problems.
62.
Families often have not decided how family responsibilities will be divided among family members.When that happens, family life can become chaotic, and many things do not get accomplished. At the other extreme, some families are not flexible at all, and family members do not help one another out or fairly reassign responsblities as family circumstances change
63.
Families are , especially for children, the most important source of emotional support. During the middle years, children find it hard to obtain this emotional support outside the family. Children do not perform or develop well without this support.
64.
Families function best when the individuality of each family member is acknowledged and appreciated. At the least,even if someone else’s personal traits or characteristics are not highly valued, each family member needs to toleratethese traits and respect that individual. Otherwise children are likely to have a difficult time developing a health self-image , and they wil have low self-esteem and poor social skills.
65.
Children need to succeed in order to feel capable of successfully managing life’s stresses and challenges. If they are taught or encouraged to reply on others( within the family or outside it) to solve their probles, they will have low self-esteem and limited initiative and will have trouble succeeding in the world.

Today Mr. Smith , from Canada gave us a lecture about his country. As the second largest country in the world , Canada covers about a quarter of the world’s land area.

There are many lakes in Canada, which supply it with one third of the world’s fresh water. Canada also has many forests, which makes it the biggest producer of paper in the world.
