Ⅳ．阅读理解（30分）

A

I lifted the heavy lid of our old freezer in the garage, looking for some vegetables. For the past year, we’d made ends meet on my small teacher’s salary while my husband, Mike, was away at graduate school. With three hungry teenagers to feed, it was expected to be a hard Christmas. Now, one glance at the half-empty freezer made me ask myself what I’d done a week earlier.

The Tuesday before Thanksgiving, Kathy, my fourteen-year-old daughter, said one of her friends wasn’t celebrating the holiday because her mother couldn’t afford it. “Could we give them our turkey, Mom?” she asked. How could I explain to her that I was saving our turkey for Christmas? We didn’t have enough money for Mike to come home for Thanksgiving. The kids and I were going to my brother-in-law’s so I wouldn’t have to spend money on a big dinner. How could I afford another turkey before Christmas? We gathered up a bag of potatoes and bread. I sent my son, Matt, out to the freezer in the garage to get some vegetables and the turkey. When we brought Kathy’s friend the food, her mother shed tears of joy. At that time, their happiness made me feel better about giving away our turkey.

Just before Christmas, I was looking into our freezer, searching for the frozen things-carrots and some blackberries. I pushed aside some frosted（冻霜的）bags of green beans and corn and saw something. I stopped and stared-among the vegetables was a newly bought turkey.

I have never found out who the mysterious giver was. But does it matter?

Monday mornings always seem to be here all too soon. Just when you are getting used to the weekend, it has already flown by. And again, it is Monday, the terrible day. But no matter how much you moan or groan(报怨), there is no escaping the Mondays.

Most of us have experienced the Monday blues at one time or another, especially if it is a dreary （沉闷的）, drizzly day. We would give anything to call in sick. Just the thought of struggling with ill-matched clothes in the closet, rushing around finding keys and wallets, rushing the kids to school and the youngest to the sitter, facing the rush hour traffic to work, and standing like an upright sardine on the Metro, it is enough to make anyone call in sick!

Suffering from Monday blues shows that you are going back to a weekday or workday routine that you do not particularly look forward to. For those late birds, it also means getting up bright and early. Some people who have Monday blues even begin to feel it by Sunday night.

The best thing to do on a Monday morning is to get some exercise or go for a walk that gets your feel-good hormones（荷尔蒙）working. Just find a green spot to stroll（散步）. Fresh air, sunshine and greenery are tremendous（巨大的）mood up-lifters. Once back from our exercise/stroll, nothing works better than blanking your mind out with some music. Take whatever works for you. Turn on your music system and let the notes set the tone for the day.

Making Mondays your look-my-best day, you should be strictly for wearing the clothes you like most.

If you are really down, call up a friend, who might be equally blue and would love to hear from you. Or you email your pals about your blues. You would know you are not alone and will feel better. As for those not big on emails, read something funny, start the day with a smile!

60. The purpose of the writer in the passage intends to .

A. explain why there will be the Monday blue

B. tell us what we can do on Mondays

C. suggest ways of dealing with Mondays blues

D. teach us how to relax yourself on weekends

A. making a phone call for sick leave

A. Making a telephone call to a friend.

B. Taking a walk in the woods.

C. Putting on your best clothes.

D. Drinking your favorite wine.

63. A short paragraph—“Do not let Mondays get you down. Get your spirits up; take a deep breath and charge on full steam ahead.”is taken out from the passage. It should be placed after .

A. Paragraph 2

B. Paragraph 3

C. Paragraph 4

Open Letter to an Editor

I had an interesting conversation with a reporter recently—one who works for you. In fact, he’s one of your best reporters. He wants to leave.

Your reporter gave me a copy of his resume(简历) and photocopies of six stories that he wrote for you. The headlines showed you played them proudly. With great enthusiasm（热情）, he talked about how he finds issues(问题),settles them, and writes about them, which tells me he is one of your best. I’m sure you would hate to lose him.

Surprisingly, your reporter is not unhappy. In fact, he told me he really likes his job. He has a great assignment(分工), and said you run a great paper. It would be easy for you to keep him, he said. He knows that the paper values him. He appreciates the responsibility you’ve given him, takes

ownership of his profession, and enjoys his freedom.

So why is he looking for a way out?

He talked to me because he wants his editors to demand so much more of him. He wants to be pushed, challenged, coached(指导) to new heights.

The reporter believes that good stories spring from good questions, but his editors usually ask how long the story will be, when it will be in, where it can play, and what the budget is.

He longs for conversations with an editor who will help him turn his good ideas into great ones. He wants someone to get excited about what he’s doing and to help him turn his story idea upside down and inside out, exploring the best ways to report it. He wants to be more valuable for your paper. That’s what you want for him, too, isn’t it?

So your reporter has set me thinking.

Our best hope in keeping our best reporters, copy editors, photographers, artists-everyone-is to work harder to make sure they get the help they are demanding to reach their potential(潜力). If we can’t do it, they’ll find someone who can.

67.What does the writer think of the reporter?

A. Optimistic(乐观的)

B. Imaginative.

C. Ambitious.(有抱负的)

D. Proud.

68. What does the reporter want most from his editors in their talks?

A. Finding the new value of his stories.

B. Giving him financial(财政的) support.

C. Helping him to find issues.

D. Improving his good ideas.

69. Who probably wrote the letter?

A. An editor…

B. An artist.

C. A reporter.

D. A reader.

70. The letter aims to remind editors that they should .

A. keep their best reporters at all costs

B. give more freedom to their reporters

C. be aware of their reporters’ professional（专业的）development

D. appreciate their reporters’ working styles and attitudes

Ⅷ．书面表达（20分）

Dear friends,

As we know, we are what we eat. Therefore, it’s very important for us to form healthy eating habits. However, bad eating habits are still very common among us students. Some of us often go to school without breakfast; some like to have snacks; some others are particular about food; and still some eat or drink too much. All these bad habits will surely do harm to our health.

To keep fit, we should have various healthy diets, which generally include

proper amounts of fish, meat, vegetables, fruits as well as main food. Besides, we’d better have meals regularly.

In my opinion, we should try to develop healthy eating habits to build up a strong body. Only in this way, can we have enough energy to study better.

That’s all .Thank you.
