Habits, whether good or bad, are gradually formed.When a person does a certain thing again, he is driven by some unseen force to do the same thing repeatedly, then a habit is formed.Once a habit is formed, it is difficult, and sometimes impoible, to get rid of.It is therefore very important that we should pay great attention to the formation of habits.Children often form bad habits, some of which remain with them as long as they live.Older persons also form bad habits lasting as long as they live, and sometimes become ruined by them.There are other habits which, when formed in early life, are of great help.Many succeful men say that much of their succe has something to do with certain habits in early life, such as early rising, honesty and so on.Among the habits which children should not form are lazine, lying, stealing and so on.These are all easily formed habits.Unfortunately older persons often form habits which could have been avoided(避免).We should keep away from(远离)all these bad habits, and try to form such habits as will be good for ourselves and others.56.________ are formed little by little.A.Good habitB.Both good habits and bad habitsC.Bad habitsD.Either good habits or bad habits

B.to get rid of bad habits;to form good habits
C.to form such habits as will be good;to get rid of bad habitsD.to form good habits;to form bad habits
59.Why should we pay much attention to the formation of habits?
A.Because it's hard and sometimes even impoible to throw away bad habits.B.Because a man can never get rid of a habit.C.Because habits are of great help to every one of us.D.Because we are forced to do them again and again.60.According to the paage, early rising ________.A.has something to do with succeB.is an easily formed habit
C.is such a habit as will be kept
D.is such a habit as should have been avoided

The child of today owes much of its pleasant school life to the work of Maria Monteori and others who felt as she did.Maria Monteori was born in 1870 in northern Italy.Both her parents were well educated.While Maria was a student, she took great interest in the study of the particular nature of the child's mind.It came to her that small children should have freedom(自由)to learn.Maria became a doctor and a profeor at Rome University.In 1907, after working with backward students, she was given a chance to try out her ideas on children.There were sixty children, aged three to six, in the Children's House.The rooms were bright and colorful.Maria let the children make their own choice of what they wanted to do and work with their own speed.They became busy, peaceful and happy.Maria Monteori was one of the world's great teachers.She traveled in Europe, America and Far East.She thought that true education, providing(提供)for the real needs of the child, would produce wise and happy grown-ups and therefore a peaceful world.Her original way of education has changed our whole idea of what childhood is.Maria Monteori died in Holland at the age of eighty-two.61.The short paage is mainly about________________.A.the education of backward studentsB.a new idea of education

AIDS’ Threat to Asia Grows
NEW DELHI---Just a few years ago, Mala was a typical middle-cla Indian housewife.She cooked, cleaned and looked after her two small children.Last year, her life took a tragic turn.Her husband died of AIDS;she was found out HIV-positive(爱滋病病毒检验呈阳性反应)and her mother-in-law took her children away from her, saying they would get the disease.“When friends dropped for a visit, she would introduce me, saying, ‘She is my son’s widow.She has AIDS,’” said Mala.AIDS is now described as “explosive(炸
药)“ around the world.A study of a hospital in the port city of Durban in South Africa, where the world’s biggest and Africa’s first AIDS conference opened last Sunday, found that almost half the beds in medical wards(病房)were occupied by AIDS patients.South Africa has one of the world’s fastest growing HIV infections(传染), with 1,700 people infected daily, adding to the 4.3 million, or 10 percent of its population, living with HIV.Until now, Asia has been more succeful in holding the AIDS virus(病毒)than Africa, where the disease has killed about 12 million people.AIDS is now threatening to surround many of Asia’s poverty-stricken countries.Countries in Asia, such as Cambodia, and Thailand, have HIV infection speeds over 1 percent.But the low speeds hide huge numbers of affected people, because of the population base.In India, for example, 3.7 million are infected, more than in any other country except South Africa.In China, an estimated 500,000 people, mainly drug users, live with HIV/AIDS.Gordon Alexander, a senior advisor for UN AIDS in India, estimates(估计)that the number hit by AIDS in Asia will climb about eight million over the next five years from about six million.In many Asian countries, the battle against HIV is a social and cultural one against public discuion of sexual health and put a nationwide media campaign into action to limit the speed of HIV through unsafe sex.Brenton Wong, an official for Singapore’s Action for AIDS, says the actual HIV incidence in the city state of 3.9 million people is at least eight times higher than official data.“Shame and deny is still very, very common, so people are afraid to get tested and many times won’t even tell their families if they test positive,” said Wong.66.What does the underlined word “she” refer to?
A.MalaB.Mala’s mother-in-lawC.Mala’s motherD.Mala’s sister 67.It is judged that there are_____people hit by AIDS in Asia or so.A.6 millionB.4.3 millionC.8 millionD.3.7 million
68.According to the paage, the main reasons that AIDS spread in China is through_______.A.bloodB.unsafe sexC.loveD.drugs
69.__________is the second largest country which has more HIV infection all over the world.A.IndiaB.South AfricaC.ChinaD.Thailand 70.Why are people afraid of being infected by AIDS? a.Because people who have AIDS are looked down upon.b.Because they will suffer a lot.c.Because they will die sooner or later as a result of it.A.abB.acC.abcD.bc

“Congratulations, Mr.Jones, it’s a girl.”
Fatherhood is going to have a different meaning and bring forth a different answer from every man who hears these words.Some feel proud when they receive the news, while others worry, whether they will be good fathers.Although there are some men who like children and may have had considerable experience with them, others do not particularly care for children and spend little time with them.Many fathers and mothers have been planning and looking forward to children for some time.For other couples, pregnancy(怀孕)was an accident that both husband and wife have accepted willingly or unwillingly.Whatever the reaction to the birth of a child, it is obvious that the change from the role of husband to that of father is a difficult task.Yet, unfortunately, few attempts have been made to educate fathers in this resocialization proce(过程).Although a good many books have been written about American mothers, only recently have some books discued the role of a father.It is argued by some writers that the transition(变换,转化)to the father’s role, although difficult, is not nearly as great as the transition the wife must make to the mother’s role.The mother’s role seems to require a complete transformation in daily routine(生活规律)and adaptation to(适应)a new life, on the other hand, the father’s role is le demanding and immediate.However, even though we have mentioned the fact that growing numbers of women are working outside the home, the father is still thought by many as the breadwinner in the household.71.According to the author, being a father ____________.A.brings a feeling of excitement to some men
B.has a different meaning for those who have daughters C.makes some men feel proud and others uneasy D.means nothing but more responsibilities(责任)72.It is stated in the paage that ______________.A.young couples do not like children at all
B.some parents are not prepared to have a child
C.working couples do not have much time to take care of their children D.many parents look forward to having a boy as their first child 73.In the third paragraph, the author _______________.A.gives expreion to his discontent with fathers for not taking enough responsibilities in bringing up their children
B.excuses the American writers for taking no notice of the difficulties of being a father C.exprees diatisfaction with the lack of social problems to help husbands to be good father
D.supports the idea that the chief role of a father is to earn money for the family 74.The transition to the mother’s role requires that the wife ______________.A.Make a complete change in her everyday life to deal with the new situation B.Change her life style in a quite different way C.Help her husband in his resocialization proce D.Stay at home to take care of the baby 75.Some writers argue that with respect to the change of roles, fathers, compared with mothers, ___________.A.have to make more difficult adaptationsB.have to do more in the household C.can usually do a better jobD.have an easy job to do第四部分:写作(共两节,共35分)

[1] I believe honesty is one of the greatest gifts there is, and it’s still what makes a man a good citizen.To be honest is my rule, which I try to live by.[2] I’ve been in the taxi busine in New York for thirty-five years, and I know there is a lot about it that is not so good.Taxi drivers have to be strong enough to fight the traffic eight hours a day.Because some taxi drivers are rude, people get the wrong impreion(印象)that taxi drivers are bad.In fact, taxi drivers are just like other people.Most of them are honest, You can read in the newspapers almost every week that a taxi driver turns in money or jewels or bonds that people have left in their cabs.If they weren’t honest, you wouldn’t be reading those stories in the newspapers.[3] One time in Brooklyn, I found a ring in my cab.I remembered helping a lady with a lot of things that day, so I went back to where I had dropped her off.It took me almost two days to trace(找到)her in order to _______, I didn’t even get a “thank you.” Still, I felt good because I had done what was right.I think I felt better than she did.[4] People ask me about tips.As far as I know, practically everyone will give you something.Come to think of it, most Americans are pretty generous(慷慨的).I always try to be honest and nice to everyone, whether they give me tips or not.I believe in God and try to be a good member of my town.I try to act toward others like I think God wants me to act.I have been trying this for a long time;the longer I try, the easier it gets and the happier I am.76.What’s the main idea of the paage?(no more than 9 words)___________________________________________________
