While the other coats drooped(低垂), this one looked as if it were 36 itself up. The coat had beautiful tailoring, a Fifth Avenue label and a(an) 37 price of $28, which was popular just then with 38 , but could cost several hundred dollars new. This coat was even better, bearing that 39 of classic elegance. John tried it on and the fit was perfect. John 40 the coat to school the next day and came home wearing a big smile "Did the kids like your coat?" I asked.

At the library, we ran into a friend “Could this be John?" he asked surprisingly, 50 John's new height, assessing the cut of his coat and extending his hand, one gentleman to another.

For John it is a time when it is as easy to try on different approaches to 54 as it is to try on a coat.

It’s an instinct (本能) which can be woken up in times of emergency or need. When we feel that something is happening or about to happen by instinct, we’re using resources within the unconscious mind. When the resources of two persons’ unconscious minds link together into the same frequency, we call it Telepathy. We can either send or receive Telepathy. If you know who is calling before you answer the ringing phone, you are probably a good receiver. If you think of a person and he/she calls you, you are most likely to be better at sending. You can easily put your abilities to the test. Think of somebody and will him or her to contact you. Be patient. The other person may not be a good receiver, but they should contact you much earlier than would normally be expected. Or whenever the phones rings, but try “feeling” who is contacting you. Don’t guess, but try to feel it with your mind. However, if neither of these work for you, that doesn’t mean that you have no ability of telepathy. As mentioned earlier, telepathy is most likely to turn up in case of emergency. Telepathy dreams often contain telepathic messages. Two people may both dream of the other and find that their dreams had a clear connection. These people are probably linking to each other’s unconscious mind. Telepathy & Relationships. The more people spend time together, the more likely they are to be able to link up to the other’s mind, specially when separated. There are two reasons for this. One is that they understand the other’s mind through time spent together; the other is that there is usually a strong desire to communicate. A mother will often sense that her child is in danger. This is due to the child’s eagerly wanting his or her mother, knowing that this person who would always want to be there for them, and the mother’s deep desire to protect her child from harm. 56. Telepathy turns up when we ____. A. sense a close friend in danger B. use the five senses together C. recall things from our memory D. think of a stranger 57. You’re better at sending than receiving Telepathy if you ____. A. can feel your mom is in danger B. receive a friend’s call as you wish C. can tell who knocks at your door D. dream of a friend dreaming of you 58. Which is not the way to help people gain Telepathy? A. Help them have a strong desire to communicate. B. Separate them all the time. C. Help them link up their unconscious minds. D. Let them spend much time together. B 59. What does Passage① tell us about the boy? A. He was injured in the head when he was 14. B. He has waited for the payout for a long time. C. He has lived the same place since the accident. D. He was run over by a taxi when riding on the pavement. 60. What can we learn about Lee and Collier counties from Passage②? A. They both became safe places. B. They won the same place in a race. C. They had the same number of accidents. D. They joined hands in reducing accidents. 61. Which passage would give more information on the prevention of road accidents? A. ① B. ② C. ③ D. ④ C In only two decades Asian Americans have become the fastest growing U. S. minority. As their children began moving up through the nation schools, it became clear that a new class of academic achievers was emerging. Their achievements are reflected in the nation’s best universities, where mathematics, science and engineering departments have taken on a decidedly Asian character. This special liking for mathematics and science is partly explained by the fact that Asian-American students who began their education abroad arrived in the U. S. with a solid grounding in mathematics but little or no knowledge of English. They are also influenced by the promise of a good job after college. Asians feel there will be less unfair treatment in areas like mathematics and science because they will be judged more objectively. And the return on the investment in education is more immediate in something like engineering than with an arts degree. Most Asian-American students owe their success to the influence of parents who are determined that their children take full advantage of what the American educational system has to offer. An effective measure of parental attention is homework. Asian parents spend more time with their children than American parents do, and it helps. Many researchers also believe there is something in Asian culture that breeds success, such as ideals that stress family values and emphasize education. Both explanations for academic success worry Asian Americans because of fears that they feed a typical racial image. Many can remember when Chinese, Japanese and Filipino immigrants were the victims of social isolation. Indeed, it was not until 1952 that laws were laid down giving all Asian immigrants the right to citizenship. 62. While making tremendous achievements at college, Asian-American students . A. feel they are mistreated because of limited knowledge of English B. are afraid that their academic successes bear a strong Asian character C. till worry about unfair treatment in society D. generally feel it a shame to have to depend on their parents 63. What are the major factors that determine the success of Asian Americans? A. A solid foundation in basic mathematics and Asian culture. B. Hard work and intelligence. C. Parents’ help and a limited knowledge of English. D. Asian culture and the American educational system. 64. Few Asian American students major in human sciences mainly because . A. their English is not good enough B. they are afraid they might meet with unfair judgment in these areas C. there is a wide difference between Asian and Western cultures D. they know little about American culture and society 65. Why do “both explanations” (Para. 3) worry Asian Americans? A. They are afraid that they will again be isolated from American society in general. B. People will think that Asian students rely on their parents for success. C. Asian Americans will be a threat to other minorities. D. American academic achievements have taken on too strong an Asian character. D The Board Meeting had come to an end. Bob started to stand up and knocked into the table, spilling his coffee over his notes. “How embarrassing! I am getting so clumsy in my old age.” Everyone had a good laugh, and soon we were all telling stories of our most embarrassing moments. It came around to Frank who sat quietly listening to the others. Someone said, “Come on, Frank. Tell us your most embarrassing moment.” Frank laughed and began to tell us of his childhood. “I grew up in San Pedro. My Dad was a fisherman, and he loved the sea. He had his own boat, but it was hard making a living on the sea. He worked hard and would stay out until he caught enough to feed the family. Not just enough for our family, but also for his Mom and Dad and the other kids that were still at home.” He looked at us and said, “I wish you could have met my Dad. He was a big man, and he was strong from pulling the nets and fighting the seas for his catch. When you got close to him, he smelled like the ocean. He would wear his old canvas, foul-weather coat and his bibbed overalls. His rain hat would be pulled down over his brow. No matter how much my mother washed them, they would still smell of the sea and of fish.” Frank’s voice dropped a bit. “When the weather was bad he would drive me to school. He had this old truck that he used in his fishing business. That truck was older than he was. It would wheeze and rattle down the road. You could hear it coming for blocks. As he would drive toward the school, I would shrink (畏缩) down into the seat hoping to disappear. Half the time, he would slam to a stop and the old truck would belch (喷出) a cloud of smoke. He would pull right up in front, and it seemed like everybody would be standing around and watching. Then he would lean over and give me a big kiss on the cheek and tell me to be a good boy. It was so embarrassing for me. Here, I was twelve years old, and my Dad would lean over and kiss me goodbye!” He paused and then went on, “I remember the day I decided I was too old for a goodbye kiss. When we got to the school and came to a stop, he had his usual big smile. He started to lean toward me, but I put my hand up and said, “No, Dad.” It was the first time I had ever talked to him that way, and he had this surprised look on his face. I said, “Dad, I’m too old for a goodbye kiss. I’m too old for any kind of kiss.” My Dad looked at me for the longest time, and his eyes started to tear up. Then he turned and looked out the windshield. “ You’re right,” he said. “ You are a big boy....a man. I won’t kiss you anymore.” Frank got a funny look on his face, and the tears began to well up in his eyes, as he spoke. “It wasn’t long after that when my Dad went to sea and never came back. It was a day when most of the fleet (船队) stayed in, but not Dad. He had a big family to feed. They found his boat adrift with its nets half in and half out. He must have gotten into a strong wind and was trying to save the nets and the floats.” I looked at Frank and saw that tears were running down his cheeks. Frank spoke again. “Guys, you don’t know what I would give to have my Dad give me just one more kiss on the cheek…to feel his rough old face… to smell the ocean on him… to feel his arm around my neck. I wish I had been a man then. If I had been a man, I would never have told my Dad I was too old for a goodbye kiss.” 66. When his father drove him to the school, Frank would shrink down into the seat hoping to disappear because ________. A. he was ashamed of his father’s old truck B. he thought he was old enough to go to school alone C. he didn’t want his schoolmates to see his father D. he hated the way his schoolmates stared at his father 67. In Frank’s eyes, when his father said “You are a big boy… a man.”, he probably felt ________. A. disappointed B. hurt C. excited D. proud 68. According to the story we can conclude that Frank’s father ________. A. was quite confident in his skills in fishing B. loved his children but hardly expressed it C. seldom gave up faced with challenges D. was full of devotion to his family 69. By saying the sentence “I wish I had been a man then…”, Frank meant ________. A. he was fed up with his father kissing him goodbye B. he deeply regretted what he had done to his father C. he was then too young to refuse a goodbye kiss D. he hoped that his father would forgive him 70. Which of the following may be the best title for this passage? A. The Smell of the Ocean B. We All Need Love C. A Goodbye Kiss D. Father’s Embarrassment 第二节（共5小题 ；每小题2分，共10分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的七个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 71 Scientists and experts have proved the uniqueness of finger-prints and discovered that no exactly similar pattern is passed on from parents to children, though nobody knows why this is the case. The ridge （隆起） structure on a person's fingers does not change with growth and is not affected by surface injuries. Burns, cuts and other damage to the outer part of the skin will be replaced in time by new one, which bears a reproduction of the original pattern. 72 Some criminals make use of this fact
