第1题
I’m like a migratory bird that has lost its sense of timing and direction, my wings flapping against season.
So what makes me fly against the tide of snowbirds？ The answer has a lot to do with my reluctance to give up the things that define who I am. Once I hear that the temperature on Long Island has dipped into the range of 40 to 50 degrees, I begin to long for the sight and crackling sound of a wood fire. I also long for the bright display o£ colors — first in the fall trees, and then in the limits around homes and at Rockefeller Center. Floridians decorate too, but can’t create the special feel of a New England winter.
I suppose the biggest reason why I return is to celebrate the holidays with people I haven’t seen in months. What could be better than sitting with family and friends for a Thanksgiving turkey dinner, or watching neighbors’ children excitedly open gifts on Christmas？ Even the first snowfall seems special. I especially enjoy seeing a bright red bird settling on a snow-covered branch (My wife and I spend winters at a retirement community in Ridge, and I’m grateful that I don’t have to shovel.)
While these simple pleasures are not unique to Long Island, they are some of the reasons why I come back. Who says you can’t go home？

A.A person spending winter in a warmer climate.

Read the following passage and the statements that follow. Choose the best answer for each statement from the three choices marked A, B and C .
Outdoor Learning Environment
“How do they get the tomato on the vine(藤、蔓)？”
The question shocked Hillis. It reminded him of the time five years ago when he was volunteering at Beattie Elementary School in his daughter’s kindergarten classroom. He’d been reading the children a book about gardening.
“These kids had only seen vegetables in supermarkets,” he says. “I felt that something important was missing in their lives.”
So he went to work. Hillis and his wife, Sally, made the local government believe that it was necessary to create an outdoor learning environment. He and other volunteers raised more than 30,000 dollars to make such a project. The project was designed like the Platte River. Like the river, the school’s front walkway turns east to west, so they planted things along the walkway, such as native grasses which can be found along the river too.
Today, students are greeted every day by the cedar-mulched creation(雪松覆盖的表面), which spreads the length of three city blocks. In the back, there’s a garden, with twenty 1 ton rocks lying in the ground, where teachers hold classes.
The outdoor effort has changed things inside, too. For science, children plant seeds and, based upon each seed’s size and weight, guess how large a vegetable will grow to become. For arts and crafts, they collect fallen leaves and make designs out of them. Other science lessons make up a large part of the outdoor learning process. “No matter what time of the year it is,” Hillis says, “there’s always something going on.”

第6题
First of all, living at college gives me a sense of responsibility and of being on my own. My parents aren't around to say, "No, you're not going out tonight," or "Did you finish your homework？" Everything I do has to be my decision, and that makes me responsible for my own life. During the second week I was at college, I had to go out and look for a bank where I could open an account. And when I got to the bank, I had to decide whether to have a checking or savings account and whether or not to get a credit card. Decisions! Decisions! Friendly people are another thing I like about college. On the first day I came to Marymount University here in Virginia from New York, I was a bit confused about where I was going. My mother and I drove in. We did not know the building we were supposed to go to, but the guard was very nice. With a smile, he told us what building we were looking for and where we could park our car. My room was on the first floor of New Gerard, and I knew I had to go through some glass doors, but my mother and I didn't know which ones. Some students saw me and asked, "Are you a new student？" When they found out I was looking for New Gerard, one said, "Oh, just follow us; that's where we're going." Even now I feel comfortable in the dorm because there are friendly people around to talk with.I do like a lot of things about college, but that doesn't mean I don't think about things at home. Although I like college, I can still get homesick. New York is a very good place, too! And sometimes I miss it!

In the United States, people greet each other with a handshake in a formal introduction. The handshake must be firm. If the handshake is weak, it is a sign of weakness or unfriendliness. Friends may place a hand on the other’s arm or shoulder. Some people, usually women, greet a friend with a hug.
Space is important to Americans. When two people talk to each other, they usually stand about two and a half feet away and at an angle, so they are not facing each other directly. Americans get uncomfortable when a person stands too close. They will move back to have their space. If Americans touch another person by accident, they say “Pardon me” or “Excuse me”.
Americans like to look the other person in the eye when they are talking. If you don’t do so, it means you are bored, hiding something, or are not interested. But when you stare at someone, it is not polite.

第11题
During his freshman year summer vacation, his classmate got him a job working on a hay (干草) farm. He threw hay up into wagons as the tractor drove around fields, and then they stacked (剁起) it in the hot barn. It was a hot，lowpaying job.
He once worked a few nights a week at a grocery store. He put things on the shelf. It was a lot of lifting and carrying，and his arms were strong from this and the previous job. It was dull and didn’t pay much.
He took some time off when soccer got serious，but the following summer he tried working at a lumber yard. It was hot outside, but he got a lot of exercise lifting and carrying things like boards and drywall. He also learned a lot about building supplies. It still didn’t pay well.
From there, he spent a year doing some tutoring for a friend of the family, but that was piecemeal. His first real job came the last year at school, when he fixed registers and worked on computers at a big box store. It was his favorite job yet, but it still didn’t pay well.
What Peter realized with all of these jobs was that he needed a better paying job! The only way to get that was to get trained or educated. He could go to school and get a 2year degree in an office or technical position. His other choices were going to a 4year college or joining the army. He wasn’t sure what he was going to do yet, but he knew he had to do something. Jobs were a lot of work, money was hard to earn，but he liked staying busy and being able to buy things. Peter wanted the most out of life, and that meant education.
25.All the jobs Peter had taken had one thing in common：_____.
A、They didn’t pay well
B、They were dull and tiresome
C、They needed hard labor
D、They were done during his vacation
26._____was the most important for Peter if he wanted a good job.

B、Education
C、Opportunity
D、Wisdom
27.We can learn from the text that_____.
