While I was waiting outside my wife’s office building for her to get out of work, I saw a beggar ing my way.
“I hope he won’t ask me for any money,” I thought.
He came and sat in front of the bus stop. After a few minutes he spoke. “That’s a pretty car,” he said, pointing to my car. He was ragged, but he had an air of dignity about himself.
I ge him a ile and continued cleaning my car.
He sat there quietly as I worked. The expected asking for money never came. As the silence between us widened, it seemed that a voice inside me said, “Ask him if he needs any help.”
“Do you need any help?” I asked.
He answered in three simple but meaningful words that I shall never fet. We often look for wisdom in great men and women, and we expect it from those of higher learning and achievements. I expected nothing but a dirty hand from him, but he said three words that shook me.
“Don’t we all?” he said.
I was feeling high, succesul and important above a beggar in the street, until those three words hit me like a shot.
Don’t we all?
I needed help. Maybe not for a bus fare or for a place to sleep, but I needed help. I reached in my wallet and ge him not only enough for a bus fare, but enough to get a warm meal and shelter for the day. Those three little words still ring true. No matter how much you he, you need help too. No matter how little you he, no matter how loaded you are with problems, even without money or a place to sleep, you can give help. 43. The writer was near the bus stop ____ .
A. to meet the beggar B. to wait for his wife
C. to wait for a bus D. to clean his car

C. I felt I liked the beggar very much D. I thought I should respect the beggar

E
“College is a fresh start.” If you’ve ever dreamed of improving the beauty of your room at home but hen’t gotten around to actually cleaning it up, then beautifying a brand-new space can be a very exciting event.
At the very beginning, let your walls speak for you. Sure, the bare walls in your room may not seem like much at first, but they give you the chance to express yourself. Don’t just limit yourself to posters, like those of your most-loved stars—you can produce up-to-date wall art with simple blue tape or make an interesting collage （拼贴画） of old ticket ends. You can even work together with your roommates beforehand if you want a particular design for your room and plan out what to be done according to the subject.
Of course, you’d like to win the race to find space. It’s no secret that space is a bit too narrow in college, but there are plenty of ways to enlarge your room. Many students lift their beds higher with bed risers in order to store things under. If you’re running low on floor space, then take a tip from NASA and look up. You can hang shoe racks （鞋架） on your doors and keep your life anized by posting a timetable or dry-erase board on your wall. You can also replace big floor lamps with cool hanging lanterns or mini-lights.
Another point is that it is important to try to keep home close to heart. However, when you choose something to beautify your room, it’s important to give it a personal touch. A photo of friends and family members can be great to look at when you’re feeling lonely. A meaningful gift from a loved one can bring old memories to your new lifestyle. College may be a new turning point of life, but that doesn’t mean you he to lee your home life behind. 47. According to the passage, a particular design of a college room can ____ .
A. help understand more of the designer B. express what the roommates like or dislike
C. produce up-to-date wall art D. use posters of most-loved stars
48. In this passage, if one turns to NASA for a tip, it means that he/she ____ .
A. tries to keep their college life anized
B. wants to make full use of their room space
C. replaces something too big with some aller ones
D. hates to make room for themselves to learn
49. Which of the following objects are often used on the wall for students to keep home close to heart?
A. Star posters, dry-erase boards, books. B. Photos of loved ones, gifts.
C. College photos, floor lamps, lanterns. D. Childhood toys, mini-lights, wall papers.
50. From what we’ve read above, we can infer that ____ .
A. first year college students cannot beautify their rooms
B. at colleges there are no big rooms to live or study in
C. this passage is mostly taken from something like a guide book
D. college rooms are where you he to beautify

第三部分 写作（共三节,满分60分）
第一节 阅读表达（共5小题；每小题2分,满分10分）
阅读下面短文,并按照题目要求用英语回答问题.
[1] I was walking in the park with a friend recently, and his cell phone rang, interrupting our conversation. There we were, walking and talking on a beautiful sunny day. But I became invisible, absent from the conversation.
[2] The telephone used to connect you to the absent. Now it makes people sitting next to you feel absent. Recently I was in a car with three friends. The driver told us to be quiet because he could not hear the person on the other end of his cell phone. There we were, four friends going down the highway, unable to talk to one another because of a tool designed to make munication easier. [3] Why is it that the more connected we get, ? Every advance in munications technology is a hurt to the closeness of human interaction （互动）. With e-mail and instant messaging over the Inter, we can now municate without seeing or talking to one another. With voice mail, you can conduct entire conversations without ever reaching anyone.
[4] More and more. I find myself hiding behind e-mail to do a job meant for conversation. Or being relieved that voice mail picked up because I didn’t really he time to talk. The industry devoted to helping me keep in touch is making me lonelier.
[5] So I’ve put myself on technology restriction： no instant messaging with people who live near me, no cell-phoning in the presence of friends, no letting the voice mail pick up when I’m home.
