One spring afternoon five years ago, Jimmy Liao was crying in the hall of Taipei's Sherwood Hotel. Life seemed 36 . The people who laughed as they walked past were taking their 37 for granted, just as he 38 himself. Now, however, he felt 39 and he couldn't even show his disappointment in his 40 .
Seeking more personally satisfying 41 , he had just left a successful job as a commercial artist when it seemed that fate played a cruel 42 on him. It was at this time that he developed cancer and was 43 to work. But that moment in the hotel was a turning point for Jimmy. He began to 44 the fact that there is no such a thing as fate, only 45 . Since then, he has published several imaginative, illustrated books.
According to Jimmy, you are 46 you choose to be. You can give up or you can work to be a happier person. Jimmy realized that, while the world 47 seems unfair, your choice can change your life. This idea can be 48 in Jimmy's books, where his characters show the powerlessness they feel 49 making their choices. The message that goes with Jimmy's drawings, however, is 50 . Though the world may make us feel small, we must be 51 . Everything will be all right for us—as it is for the "small people" in Jimmy's books—if we make choices that are 52 for us.
In spite of his new 53 and wealth, Jimmy prefers working 54 at home with his wife and daughter. He spends his mornings drawing. To Jimmy, living a life as he chooses means much more than money and fame could 55 .

第三部分: 阅读理解(共20小题;每小题2分,满分40分)
A
Over the past ten years, we have made some big steps forward in our common struggle for development, security and human rights. Aid and debt relief have increased, making the world economy somewhat fairer. At last, the world is taking action against HIV/AIDS. There are fewer wars between countries than there used to be; and many civil wars have ended. More Governments are elected by, and responsible for, the people whom they govern. And all States protect people from war crimes, racial cleansing and crimes against humanity.
But there is so much that still www.ks5u.comneeds doing. The gap between rich and poor continues to grow. Many people still face serious crime, discrimination, and racial conflict. Nuclear weapons require urgent attention. Terrorism, and the reaction to it, is spreading fear and suspicion. It seems that we don’t even agree which threats are most important. Those who live on small islands may see global warming as the biggest danger. Those who live in a city that has suffered terrorist attacks, like New York, or Mumbai, or Istanbul, may feel that fighting against terrorism is more urgent. Others again may cite poverty, disease, or genocide. The truth is, these are all global threats. All of us should be concerned about all of them. Otherwise, we may not succeed in dealing with any of them.
At this time of all times, we cannot afford to be divided. I know that you, the peoples of the world, understand this. Thank you for all the support and encouragement you have given me throughout these ten difficult but exciting years.
Please urge your leaders to work with my successor, and make the United Nations ever stronger and more effective.Long live our planet, and its peoples. Long live the United Nations!
56. The first paragraph mainly describes ________.
A. the fact that the United Nations has become stronger

57. From the second paragraph we learn________.
A. which problems are the most important
B. the task to improve our world is not so difficult
C. we still have a long way to go to achieve world peace
D. the future of the world is not certain
58. According to the text, which of the following is not true? www.ks5u.com
A. Islanders care more about terrorism than global warming.
B. More leaders are voted for by the people for whom they are responsible, whom they govern.
C. The speaker has spent almost all his professional life working for the United Nations.

B
How can you create a great science fair project? You can start by asking yourself some questions.
What is interesting to me?
You can connect almost any topic to science. Your topic could be plants, worms, dogs, the sky, or something else. If you cannot think of a topic, search books or the Internet for ideas. Seek help from your teacher or a librarian. Your parents may have some good thoughts too.
What question do I have about this topic?
A great science project always includes an experiment. Make sure that your question can be answered through an experiment. Here are some examples of questions: Does the amount of light have an effect on how fast plants grow? How much salt is in different kinds of cookies sold sat the store? Why does the sky change color at different times of the day?
How much time do I have before the science fair?
A science fair to be held in two weeks will not give you time for some experiments, such as growing plaints. carefully plan your project so that you allow enough time to perform your experiment accurately.
What do I think is the answer to my question?
Why do I think this? The answer you choose is your hypothesis. You will prove it right or wrong by performing an experiment. If you were to think about the sky question, your hypothesis might be that the color of the sky is related to the position of the sun.
How can I prove my hypothesis?
This is where the experiment comes in. You have to test your hypothesis. If you wanted to find out how light affects plant growth, you could plant seeds in a number of containers. Then you could expose the plants to different amounts of light and compare the growth rates.
How can I present my results?
You might display your question and hypothesis on poster boards. You might then add pictures and graphs. A great science project also states a conclusion. A conclusion of the plant experiment might be The plants that got the most light grew the fastest.
When you have finished your project, you may have more questions. A great science project makes you want to learn even more.
60. A great science project always includes ________.
A. plants in pots B. an experiment C. results D. poster boards
61. A hypothesis is a(n) ________.
A. question B. performance C. idea D. proof
62. We can learn from the passage that ________.

The day will come when my body will lie upon a white sheet neatly folded in under the four corners of a mattress located in a hospital busily occupied with the living and the dying. At a certain moment, a doctor will determine that my brain has ceased to function and that, to all intents and purposes, my life has stopped.
When that happens, do not attempt to instill artificial life into my body by the use of a machine. And don’t call this my deathbed. Let it be called the Bed of Life, and let my body be taken from it to help others lead fuller lives.
Give my sight to the man who has never seen a sunrise, a baby’s face or love in the eye of a woman. Give my heart to a person whose own heart has caused nothing but endless days of pain.
Give my blood to the teenager who was pulled from the wreckage of his car, so that he might live to see his grandchildren play. Give my kidneys to one who depends on a machine to exist. Take my bones, every muscle, every fiber and nerve in my body, and find a way to make a crippled child walk.
Explore every corner of my brain. Take my cells, if necessary, and let them grow so that, someday, a speechless boy will shout at the crack of a bat, and a deaf girl will hear the sound of rain against her window.
Burn what is left of me and scatter the ashes to the winds to help the flowers grow. If you must bury something, let it be my faults, my weaknesses and all prejudice against my fellow man.w ww.k s5u.c om
If, by chance, you wish to remember me, do it with a kind deed or word to someone who needs you. If you do all I have asked, I will live forever.

D
There is a group of people whose numbers the British Government desperately wants to see dropping. They’re mostly in their early 20s, without jobs and not at university. They often wander the streets and are seen as a threat.
The Office for National Statistics reported on Dec, 11, 2006 that the number of young people who are not in school and not working or in training in Britain has risen sharply since 1997.
Britain now has 1.24 million people aged 15 to 24 who have nothing to do. That’s a 15 percent increase over 1997. One in six people in this age group is idle.
These people are most likely to be from lower-income families and be supported by their families or the government. Those over 18 can get a weekly job seeker’s allowance of £46 (690 yuan) from the government. This is only enough to cover the basic cost of living.
Housing benefits are also available. But for single people under 25, these only cover rent for very cheap accommodation, such as a shared room. So most unemployed young people choose to live with their parents, where they can have a room of their own.
Some charities or local governments offer free housing for homeless young people as well. Nightstop UK, for example, offers help to young people aged 16--25. However, the housing is often only short-term.
British politician Iain Duncan-Smith blames the breakdown of traditional families on the increasing number of unemployed or untrained young people.
In Britain today, about one in 10 families are headed by a cohabiting couple. Cohabiting parents are twice as likely to break up as married parents, according to a Conservative Party report. Family breakdown is likely to lead to ignoring a child’s education.
Poor post-school vocational training programmes are also being criticized. Independent research suggests that some training programmes are a waste of time.
The New Deal, a major programme to help the unemployed young, is one example. In 1998, 61 per cent of those leaving the programme could find jobs. That number is now down to 35 per cent.
“It shows a failure of government policy. Even if you put in a large amount of money, if you haven’t got the basic policies right, you won’t get the results,” said politician David Willetts.
68. What does the underlined word “idle” probably mean in the third paragraph?
A. engaged B. unemployed C. diligent D. busy
69. How many factors are mentioned in this passage that lead to the increase of unemployment?
A. 2 B. 3 C. 4 D. 5
70. We can infer from the passage that_________.
A. the allowance from the government can help those young people to live a comfortable life
B. the New Deal is always successful in helping job hunters
C.homeless young people depend on local governments for permanent accommodation
D. most unemployed young people choose to live with their parents because they can have their own room
71. The best title for this news report might be ________.
A. Success of Government Policy B. Vocational Training in Britain
C. Jobless Youth Concerns D. Job Hunting Problems
E
Time and how we experience it have always puzzled us. Physicists have created fascinating theories, but their time is measured by a pendulum(钟摆)and is not psychological time, which leaps with little regard to the clock or calendar. As someone who understood the distinction observed, “When you sit with a nice girl for two hours, it seems like a minute, but when you sit on a hot stove, a minute seems like two hours.” www.ks5u.com
Psychologists have long noticed that larger units of time, such as months and years, fly on swifter wings as we age. They also note that the more time is structured with schedules and appointments, the more rapidly it seems to pass. For example, a day at the office flies compared with a day at the beach. Since most of us spend fewer days at the beach and more at the office as we age, an increase in structured time could well be to blame for why time seems to speed up as we grow older.
Expectation and familiarity also make time seem to flow more rapidly. Almost all of us have had the experience of driving somewhere we’ve never been before. Surrounded by unfamiliar scenery, with no real idea of when we'll arrive, we experience the trip, feeling it takes long time. Although exactly long as the same, it seems to take far less time when getting back. The novelty of the outward journey had become routine. Thus taking a different route on occasions can often help slow the clock.
When days become the same as beads (小珠子) on a string, they mix together, and even months become a single day. To counter this, try to find ways to interrupt the structure of your day -- to stop time, so to speak.
Learning something new is another way to slow the passage of time. One of the reasons the days of our youth seem so full and long is that these are the days of learning and discovery.
72. The quotation in the first paragraph is used to indicate ______.
A. that time should not be measured by a pendulum www.ks5u.com
B. the distinction between physical time and psychological time
C. that physical theory has nothing to do with the true sense of time
D. that, with little regard of a clock or calendar, psychological time is quite puzzling
73. The passage is meant to ______.
A. describe various definitions about time B. state the principles of time
C. explain why time flies and how too slow it down
D. show the different ideas of physicists and psychologists on time
74. According to the passage, when people live a same dull routine life, time seems to _____.
A. stop B. slow down C. speed up D. be in a psychological sense
75. Which of the following examples does not make time seem to flow more rapidly?
A. Office work structured with schedules. B. Life of a businessman filled with appointments.
C. A journey to a familiar place. D. Learning something difficult and interesting.
