My friend Jessie and I have known each other since we were very young. Friendships get more precious as we get older, and when we reached our forties, we decided we needed to put in a little more work to keep our friendship strong, healthy and growing. We pick out one Saturday a month and promise to do something together. Sometimes we have a long lunch out. Other times we go to see a movie or shopping. But at least once a quarter, we have an adventure.
In some adventures we drove to our favorite places. In other adventures we spent a night in a place sharing a festival like Christmas or sometimes we just drove, stopping wherever we wanted. We have headed out of the state to Tennessee. We have tried out new restaurants and new shops. xKb 1.Com
One of our adventures took us to a very small town in south Georgia. It was one of those watermelon or cotton or peanut festivals, and we enjoyed buying the handmade gifts and eating the terrific foods. The most impressive was a parade, with local school marching bands and service groups. We joined the parade and began smiling and waving! Everyone smiled and waved back! Of course, their smiling faces turned confused and puzzled as we passed in our car. “Who are these women?” they must have wondered. Finally, we turned a corner and a serious-looking policeman directed us back to the highway. We really had a great day!
Fun is always on the menu, whether it’s a weekend trip or a couple of hours over lunch. We talk and have influence on each other’s life. We share our struggles and our happiness. We ask for and receive advice. And we laugh!
Don’t keep promising yourself that “someday soon” you will get together with them. Do it now. Pick up your phone and make a plan for this weekend. You need it. Your friend needs it. You’ll be a happier, healthier person for it!

A sudden screaming voice of a lady made everybody within a distance on the road stop and look back at her. It was a frightful moment when we realized why she had screamed. Her child was about to get hit by a car. After the situation came in control, a few of us went to the lady and asked her what happened. We got to know that her child had seen his uncle standing on the other side of the road and out of excitement ran towards him on the busy road.
Well, this was just an example of how accidents take place due to children and how the chances of these children meeting with accidents are more than the adults because they are not familiar with the road safety rules. The recent survey on traffic accidents shows that the road accidents happened to children from the age of 10 to 12 has increased whereas there was a decline in the accident ration of the children from the age of 13 and above.
One of the important things that both parents and teachers should teach them is the importance of road safety. They should be told about the consequences of what happens when a person does not follow traffic rules. If the children are taught to follow all the traffic rules then the chances of road accidents become less.
In most of the schools, road safety rules are taught to the students by showing them pictures. The students should also be taught not to rush while boarding or getting down from the school bus. One of the important steps of road safety rules is not to talk while crossing the road.
We think there is no need to learn traffic rules because we all have common sense, but what it seems to be so easy is not that easy actually. There is a long list of such instances where almost one person dies every day in a road accident. With a conscious mind we can easily avoid such accidents and teach children the same for their safety.

A. they liked playing in the street B. they usually broke traffic rules
C. they were too young to walk D. they were not protected well

A. students should be taught to obey the traffic rules
B. parents should take responsibility for their children’s accidents
C. teachers owe a duty of care to all their students
D. parents should teach their children how to walk carefully
46. Which of the following can help children keep safe on the road?
a. Getting off the school bus as soon as possible.
b. Talking while walking on the road.
c. Crossing the roads at the zebra crossing properly.
d. Boarding the school bus in turn
A. a, c B. b, c C. a, b D. c, d
47. What’s the best title of the passage?
A. Learning traffic rules is important for the children
B. More traffic accidents happen on the road every day

A 77-year-old former traffic policeman, who had cared for his Alzheimer’s-stricken wife for ten years, walked into the hospital where she was being treated and shot her three times.
Vitangelo Bini then sat down at the foot of her bed to call the police. When they arrived he told them, “I couldn’t stand to see her suffer any more.”
Mr Bini, from Prato, in Tuscany, was in custody (监护) last night after being charged with homicide (杀人罪).

A few seconds later he fired another shot to the head and one to the heart, Fabio Di Chierri, the vice-director of Prato police station, said.
Mr Di Chierri said that Mr Bini sat down and tried to call the police on his mobile phone. He could not get through, perhaps because so many others in the neighborhood were doing the same.
Police officers happened to be on the same floor and arrived immediately. Mr Bini did not put up any resistance and tried to explain his actions, although he appeared and sounded dazed (恍惚的) and confused, the officers said. The couple’s children, a son, 43, and a daughter, 44, were stunned by the news and did not see their father when they went to the police station.

Moving to a new neighborhood, town, state, or even country can be a pretty scary experience. All you know is that things will be different and chances are you won’t know the kids at your new school.
Leaving old friends and familiar places behind can be difficult. However, as you begin the moving process, keep in mind that saying goodbye to your old house, school, and friends does not mean that you have to forget them or that your farewell is permanent! If you’re moving to a new state or even a different country and won’t see your friends for a long time, don’t despair. Make sure to ask everyone for their address so you can write them letters. Also, thanks to the Internet, it is very easy to stay in touch through e-mail or instant messaging technologies. With your parent’s permission, you can even create a blog or web page to record all of your new experiences. Your old friends will love seeing what you are busy with.
Many schools have an orientation program where a local student shows a new students around for their first week. This can help you find your way around the school and make new friends faster.
While moving is tough on kids of any age, high school counselor Karen Turner says moves can be particularly difficult for teens. “I think moving during adolescents is an extremely stressful experience, especially if you’re into your early junior high or early senior high year. Students tend to have established a very strong peer network during that period in their lives. Often this has more influence on them even than their families in some cases, and when they’re torn from that there’s often resentment (怨气).” However, Turner adds that while moving isn’t easy, there are things that your parents and the school can do to help you cope with the change.
52. Which of the following is mainly suggested in Paragraph 2?
A. Staying in contact with old friends.
B. Expressing yourself when it’s possible.
C. Forming good habits at school.
D. Keeping positive about your new school.

C. parents should communicate with the school teachers
D. teens tend to behave rudely in a new school
55. If this passage continues, what would the author further discuss?
A. What a new school is like.
B. Why parents move with their children.
C. How parents and the school can help the children.
D. How children can express their anxieties.
第三部分 书面表达(共两节,满分35分)
第一节 阅读表达(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)
阅读下面的短文,并根据短文后的要求答题(请注意问题后的词数要求)。
It’s important to set a good example for your child by demonstrating healthy ways to react to stressful situations. As difficult as it may be, it’s a good idea to resist the urge to yell when you are disciplining your child. Instead, try to be firm and matter-of-fact. If your child is losing his or her temper, instead of losing yours, too, calmly let your child know that yelling, throwing a tantrum (脾气发作), and slamming doors are unacceptable behavior, and they have consequences. Calmly explain .
If your child has an occasional temper tantrum or outburst, in many cases, it’s a good idea to show your child that a tantrum is not an effective method to get what he or she wants. For example, if your child gets upset at the grocery store after you’ve explained why you are not buying any candy, if you don’t give in to it, you have demonstrated that a tantrum is unacceptable behavior, and it doesn’t work.
If your child frequently loses control and is continually argumentative, or impulsive (易冲动的), or if tantrums last for more than 10 minutes on a regular basis, you may want to talk to your child’s doctor.
For school-age children, you may want to also talk to the doctor if the tantrums are accompanied by the following behavior:
★ restlessness
★ impulsiveness
★ defiance (挑衅)
★ difficulty in concentrating
★ low self-esteem
★ declining performance in school
You might also consider talking to your child’s teachers about classroom settings and appropriate behavioral expectations for your child. Look at your own actions to see if you are managing stressful situations as well as you can. If not, you might want to ask your family doctor about whether family counseling sessions may help.
56. What is the best title of the passage? (no more than 10 words)
57. What should you do if your child gets upset at the grocery store because of no candy? (no more than 18 words)
58. Please fill in the blank in Paragraph 1 with proper words. (no more than 5 words)
59. Whom should you turn to if your child frequently loses control? (no more than 5 words)
60. What does the underlined word “they” (Line 7, Paragraph 1) probably refer to? (no more than 8 words)
