My car and my best friend
For most, getting your first car opens up a new world of freedom and allows you to go wherever you want, whenever you want. Getting a car did 36 this for me, and it also brought my best friend and me 37 . But then it tore us apart (分开).
My best friend lives three minutes from my 38 . Since her 39 is in late summer,
seven months behind mine, I basically became her 40 when I turned 16 in December.
And so I 41 her up for school and took her home. We made ice-cream 42 , went shopping and to the movies―all in my car. I would drive to her house just to sit on her bed, read magazines and have a good laugh. I went to her house so 43 that she gave me a key 44 her house.
A week after I got my license（驾照），she was with me 45 I had my first accident. She was there and 46 me and we kept it a 47 , since I didn’t want people to 48 . From then on, through thick and thin (共患难), it was just me , my car and my best friend.
High school is a time of 49 , but I couldn’t 50 for a long time 51 we became so distant（疏远） after being so close. My friend waited three months after her birthday to get her dream car：a green 2004 Beetle. With its 52 , the passenger seat of my car became 53 . Our car trips became less frequent (频繁的) 54 I didn’t even drive down her street.
It’s funny how a car can change a relationship so much. I had wanted her to get a car, but once she did, I 55 it. I wanted her friendship back, even if it couldn’t be the same.

Although the cause of the accident is still unclear， the local police said the driver paid no attention to the official warning signs on the expressway．It hit a section which had been closed as a result of snow.

For the first time in Hong Kong's history，an entertainer has been written into middle school textbooks.He is considered one of the best actors in Hong Kong. Yes，he is Chow Yun fat．

He was one of the hardest working actors and starred in a number of popular TV dramas and films including “Shanghai Bund”（《上海滩》） and “A Better Tomorrow”． Since 1985， he has won many awards including Taiwan's Golden Horse Awards and Hong Kong Film Awards .
In 1995, he went to Hollywood． Although he was already in his 40s, he had to learn English．He even put chopsticks in his mouth to practise pronouncing certain sounds. His film， “Crouching Tiger，Hidden Dragon”，began to gain him more fame and recognition around the world．In 1998，the mayor of Chicago set aside January 12 as “Chow Yun fat Day．”

第Ⅱ卷(非选择题，共45分)
第一节 阅读填空(共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分)
阅读短文，根据所读内容在表中的空格处填上适当的单词或短语。
“Cool” is a word with many meanings. Its traditional meaning is used to show a temperature that is fairly cold. It is often used to describe autumn. As the word has changed, however, the word has expanded to take on many other different meanings.
“Cool” can be used to express feelings of interest in almost anything. And it can often be heard in teenagers’ language.
When you see a brand-name car in the street, maybe you can’t help saying, “How cool it is!” You might think , “He is cool.” if you see your favorite football player.
We all enlarge the meaning of “cool”. You can use it instead of many words such as “new”, “wonderful”, “unbelievable”, or “amazing”. An interesting story can be used to illustrate the usage of the word. A teacher asked her students to describe the waterfall they had visited. On one student’s paper there was nothing but one sentence, “It’s so cool that I love it very much..” Perhaps he thought the word “cool” was the best one to describe what he saw and felt. It can be understood that the water of the waterfall was cool, or the scenery of the waterfall was extraordinarily beautiful, or when the student watched the water falling down from high with loud sound , he felt very happy.
But the story also proves the shortage of words and expressions. Without “cool ” some people have no words to express the same meaning. So it is necessary to improve our word strength to maintain some richness.
As a popular word, “cool stands for a kind of special culture that people can accept easily. Except “cool” ,can you think of many words that make your life as colorful? I can. And I think they are also very cool.
Cool
| Its______(1)_______meaning

|

1. new
2. _____(2)_____
3. ______(3)_____
4. ______(4)_____

|
1. feeling of ______(6)_______
2. something favorite
|
| It is often used by

_______(7)_______

| The student perhaps used “cool” to describe
|
1. the water of the waterfall
2. the beautiful _____(8)______
3. his feeling of _____(9)________

| Too much use of the word “cool” shows

The shortage of ________(10)_________

Possible version 1: Dear editor, I'm a student of Senior One . I think my parents should buy me a computer now. As we know, computers have been of great use and will be used more and more in our daily life. Besides, computers are also helpful in our English learning. There are piles of learning software we can us I don't see anything wrong for us to spend some time playing games. After all, we need something to enjoy ourselves. One more word, with computers we can get more information and get more knowledge. Don't you agree? Yours Li Hua
Possible version 2: Dear editor, I'm a student of Senior One . 1 don't think my parents should buy me a computer now. Those who have computers in my class are spending too much time on computer games. In my opinion there are many other ways to enjoy myself than playing computer games. If we don't put our hearts into our work, we might fail in the entrance examinations. Besides, if you get a computer and don't make full use of it, it's just a waste of money. So I insist they not buy me a computer now. Don't you agree? Yours Li Hua
