14、hat best fits each blank. (A)(A) The summer of my eleventh year was a wonderful time of joy. My days were spent (21) _ (play) happily in the bright green woods around my home. I wished those peaceful days would last forever. But then it all changed. It happened in the middle of the night when I hear
15、d my grandmother scream. A fire had started in her room and was rapidly spreading through our house. We all ran outside. That night I went from a happy and carefree child to a homeless and scared (22) _. I didnt know (23) _ the future would be like. Thankfully, good friends took us into their home,
16、fed, and clothed us. One night around their dinner table my mom thanked them for all they were doing for us. Smiling, her friend said, “Honey, it was the least we (24) _ do.“ Later they began to share old stories and laugh. It was then that I smiled for the first - 3 - time in days and felt the fear
17、 finally fading from my heart. Our friends gave us help when we were in trouble. They opened their home and their hearts to us. They helped us to start over when we (25) _ (lose) everything. The next time you are given an opportunity (26) _(help) others, give from your heart. Live a life that makes
18、Heaven smile. God puts us here to love each other, to feed each other, to help each other, and to make this world a better place for everyone. (B)(B) It seems that the custom of (27) _(give) birthday presents started thousands of years ago. People used to fear evil spirits-especially on their birthd
19、ays. It was a common belief that evil spirits were more dangerous to a person when he or she experienced a change in their daily life, such as turning a year (28) _ (old). As a result, birthdays were celebrated with family and friends, who surrounded the birthday person with laughter to protect him
20、or her from evil. It (29) _(think) to be even better if the guests brought gifts. Of course, people from different countries around the world celebrate birthdays in different ways. For example, the children in Argentina have their ears (30)_ (pull) by all their family and friends-one for each year o
21、f their lives. In Israel, the child sits in a special chair and gets lifted into the air-again, once for each year of life. The lucky children of Ireland receive “birthday bump” -they are held upside down and gently knock against the floor the number of years of life. So, once again we can see that
22、(31) _ the practice of celebrating birthdays is very widespread around the world, the ways in which the celebrations are performed are very different. Sometimes they seem very strange, sometimes even amusing to people (32) _ have different customs-but always very interesting to learn about and, with
23、 luck, someday experience. Section Section B B (6)(6) - 4 - Directions:Directions: Complete the following passage by using the words in the box. Each word A. hands B. qualities C. information D. curiosity E. ruined F. applied G. ashamed can only be used once. Note that there is one word more than yo
24、u need. When I succeeded in becoming a part-time employee of Nokia China last summer, many friends asked me how I survived the interview. I once asked myself the same questions. Many of my peers also _33_ for the job, including some very competitive and intelligent students from famous universities.
25、 But why did the interviewer pick me instead of them? Finally, _34 _ pushed me to ask the interviewers after we became colleagues. The answer was that I appeared confident but humble, responsible and communicative. They evaluated people not just on their academic certificates, but on the base of the
26、ir _35_ and abilities. I happened to be the right person. To be frank, I once felt _36_ of being a student from an unknown college, and I think this may apply to some of you. I thought my future was ruined. It was only at the time of my successful interview that I finally understood the famous sayin
27、g - “You decide where you go.” Once I worked as a volunteer for a beach volleyball event. My job was to help foreign visitors experience the beach. I thought it would be very easy because my oral English was pretty good. But when I went to talk with a group of foreign guests, I suddenly realized tha
28、t I did not know a single beach volleyball term. I was embarrassed. After this, I read brochures in both Chinese and English every day to learn the terms for facilities and related words. This allowed me to deliver accurate _37_ to foreigners, and I was happy to work responsibly. After these experience, Im more confident and I strongly believe that my fate is in my _38_. It has certainly helped me make a giant step closer to my dream of graduating with prospects for the future. I hope my advice will benefit you as well. III. Reading ComprehensionIII.
