A father took his son to fly kites in the park. Soon, the son’s kite was very high in the sky. After a while, the son said, "Father, it seems that the thread (线) is stopping the kite from flying higher. If we break it, the kite will be free and fly even higher. Can we break it " So the father cut the thread. The kite started to go a little higher. That made the son very happy.
But then, slowly, the kite started to come down. Seeing that, the young son asked his father, "Father, I thought without the thread, the kite could freely fly higher. But why did it fall down "
The father explained, "Son, the thread was not stopping the kite from flying higher, but it was helping it stay higher when the wind slowed down or picked up. You helped the kite fly higher in a proper direction through the thread. And after we cut the thread, the kite fell down without the support you provided for it through the thread." Hearing what the father said, the son lowered his head and didn't say anything.

It was a normal busy morning. At about 8:30 am, George, an old man in his 80s, arrived at Queen Alexandra Hospital, England, to have stitches removed (拆线) from his hand.
George told me that he was in a hurry as he had an appointment at 9:15. I weighed him, took his blood pressure (血压) and invited him to take a seat in the waiting area. I saw him looking at his watch and asked George if he had another doctor’s appointment this morning, as he was in such a hurry.
George told me no, but that he needed to go to St Christopher’s Nursing Home to eat breakfast with his wife. He told me that she had Alzheimer’s disease (老年痴呆症).
As we talked, I asked if she would be sad if he was a little late. George replied that she no longer knew who he was and that she had not recognized him for five years.
I was surprised. “And you still go every morning, even though she doesn’t know who you are ” I asked him.
“She doesn’t know me, but I still know who she is,” he answered with a smile.
I had to hold back tears back as George left. “That is the kind of love I want in my life.” I thought.
True love is neither physical, nor romantic. The happiest people don’t necessarily have the best of everything , they just make the best of everything they have. Life isn’t about how to survive (存活) in the storm, but how to dance in the rain.

B.Because he wanted to see his wife on time.

C.she knew George was busy D.she didn’t want to see him

American and British people both speak English of course. But sometimes it does not seem like the same language. In fact, there are some important differences between British English and American English.
36 Often, Americans don’ t say each word especially the sounds like “t” and “d” . However, the British usually pronounce their consonants(辅音) more carefully.
Also, some letters have different sounds. For example, Americans say the “a” in “half” like the “a” in “cat”, but the British say the “a” in “half” like the “o” in “soft”.
Sound is not the only difference. 37 . For example, the words for clothing are different. Americans use the word “sweater”, but the British say “jumper”.

39 these differences can be confusing (令人疑惑的). But there is a reason for the difference.Languages change all the time. 40 This is what happened to English. It also happened to other languages, such as French. Many people in Canada speak French, but their French is different from the French spoken in France.

【分析】本文介绍了中外不同的文化观念,即同样的事物,中国和西方可能代表不同的意义。文章列举了龙和玫瑰两者在中西方文化中的差异。同时,有些事物的象征意义在中外文化中是相同的。因此,要了解文字的文化意义和差异。
51.句意:在古代,龙被认为是强大而神奇的生物。本句考查被动语态,主语“dragons”和谓语动词“regard as”是动宾关系,根据时间状语“In ancient times”可知,该句应用一般过去时的被动语态。根据一般过去时的被动语态的构成“be+done”,主语“dragons”是复数,故be动词应该用were,故填were。
52.句意:古代皇帝把自己比作龙。根据文中的句子“Nowadays, many parents want their children to become "dragons".”,句中的“nowadays”与本句中的“ancient emperors”相对比可知,本题考查“compare...to...”,意思是“古代皇帝把自己比作龙”,故填to。
53.句意:英雄们为了保护人们而杀了龙。空格上所填词是上文中的“dragons”,为了避免重复,用代词来代替,在句中做谓语动词的宾语。“dragons”对应的宾格形式为“them”,故填them。
54.句意:在中国和一些西方国家,玫瑰被视为爱情的象征。根据文中的句子“Some things have similar meanings in Chinese culture and western cultures.”谈到了“有些东西在中国文化和西方文化中有相似的含义”可推测,句子说的是“玫瑰是爱情的象征,中国和一些西方国家一样”,本句考查“both...and...”,故填and。
55.句意:当我们注意单词的文化意义时,我们会更好地理解它们。本题考查“pay attention to”。因为本句是由when引导的时间状语从句,所以从句用一般现在时。从句的主语“we”是复数形式,故填动词原形。故填pay。

56.根据“I’m very well, Bob.”可知此处问Cathy好吗,为避免与上文重复,会问“你呢?”故填What about you。
57.根据“Tomorrow Oh, I’ve no idea.”可知是问明天打算做什么。故填What are you going to do tomorrow。
58.根据“Oh, I’ve no idea.”及“We are going to join the English Club.”可知自己没有机会,要问对方有什么机会。故填Do you have any plans。
59.根据“That’s a good idea! ”及“Sure.”可知觉得Cathy的计划好,想要加入,此处用以can开头的疑问句表请求。故填Can I come。
60.根据“We are going to meet here. Outside the school gate at 3:00 in the afternoon.”可知问了见面的时间和地点。故填When and where shall we meet。
