三、Possible version:
Mistakes are unavoidable in life. But attitudes towards them may make a difference.
I still remember how my spoken English improved. At the beginning, I always kept silent in oral class to avoid making mistakes. Before long my teacher knew about my situation. He encouraged me to speak out what I wanted to regardless of mistakes. Whenever I made mistakes and felt discouraged, my teacher and classmates would help me figure out how I could have avoided them. Practice makes perfect. With time going by, I built up my confidence, and now I can talk fluently in English. Just as the saying goes, every bean has its black.
Don’t be afraid of making mistakes. Learn from them, and success is just awaiting us.


D 篇
【解题导语】司机在一个加油站加油，油价是$3.50,但行驶几英里后，油价也许上升或下降几美分，是常见的事。那么是什么因素影响了油价的波动呢？作者告诉我们，油价的变动就如同汽车销售价格变动一样，是受经销商（店）位置、时间等相关因素的影响，加油站买进或卖出的油价波动，一方面受市场每日油价升降的制约，另一方面受加油站间竞争等因素的影响。简言之，加油站的油价波动，受加油站的品牌（是否享受优惠），站与站之间的竞争因素的制约。
63．A。主旨大意题。综合全文，尤其第一段、第二段的信息得知，文章主要围绕竞争是如何影响油价的展开叙述。How Competition Impacts Gas Prices 是原文的标题。
64．B。细节推理题。分析第二段前两句得知，星期天下午驱车到附近的加油站加油的油价为$3.50, 行驶数英里后，油价也许上升或下降数美分，第三句提出为什么会这样，然后一句Think of it this way. 话题转入汽车销售，以此回答上述问题，顾客在相邻的两家汽车经销商能买到便宜的汽车，在第三、四家也许能买到更便宜或稍贵的汽车，再结合全文，就可清楚地知道，作者想说明在诸多影响价格的因素中，“位置”是决定价格的重要因素。
65．C。细节理解题。根据第三段中Many motorists fail to realize that the price a station pays for gasoline changes daily.的信息得知。在影响油价的诸多因素中，加油站进油价每天都在变动。
66．D。细节推理题。根据第四段中those stations are guaranteed first supply in case of emergency situations 的信息得知，既然branded stations 能得到优先的供货保障，所以能提供稳定供应。

67. C。细节推断题。从第二段“…found the contact with an online community through a blog made it more effective in relieving the writer’s social distress than a private diary would be”可以看出答案为C. 其他三个选项均为“a private diary”与 “a blog”的共同特征，故可以排除。
68. B。推理题。文章在第三、四段才涉及到survey 以及实验的分组情况，但关于survey 的目的在第一、二段已经埋下伏笔：如第一段“…when teenagers detail their sadness onto a blog, the therapeutic value is even greater.” 结合第一、二段信息和第四段的实验分组情况进行综合判断，可以推断答案应为B。
69. C。细节推断题。从第五段的最后一句得知，在获得改善最明显的那个组里，bloggers“wrote about their problems and allowed commenters to respond”,与C 选项的表述 “communicate with readers about their troubles” 最为接近，故答案为C。
70. D。主旨要义题。从最后一段的信息“all comments made by readers were very positive and constructive”可知，答案应为D。

Talking plants might sound like characters in a fairy tale. But recent scientific studies have shown that plants communicate with each other and with other living things in a surprising number of ways. To understand them, scientists say, we just have to learn their language. Farmers are especially interested in what plants have to say.
“Plants are able to communicate with all sorts of organisms (有机体). They can communicate with giant bacteria, with other plants and with insects. They do this chemically,” said Cahill, an Ecology Professor of the University of Alberta in Canada.
Plant scientists are just beginning to understand this chemical “ language”. Cahill says studies have shown, for example, that plants can evaluate conditions in their immediate environment and take appropriate actions. Plants have an ability, for example, to signal pain or discomfort caused by anything from temperature extremes to an insect attack. Jack Schultz, a professor of chemical ecology at the University of Missouri, says when a plant senses that it’s being eaten, it cannot walk away from trouble; on the contrary, it will release a chemical vapor that alerts other plants nearby.
“Their language is a chemical language, and it involves chemicals that move through the air that are easy to be changeable, and most of all are smells that we are familiar with,” Schultz explained.
“All plants responded to the attack by changing their chemistry to defend themselves,” Schultz recalled. “But we were quite surprised to find that nearby plants also changed their chemistry to defend themselves, even though they were not part of the experiment.”
Studies have also shown that plants under attack release pleasant chemicals. Those chemicals attract friendly insects that attack the pests eating the plant.
In the end, plants’ ability to communicate their needs---and our ability to understand them--- could help farmers reduce the use of poisonous chemicals, cut operating costs and limit damage to the environment.
55. The recent scientific studies have shown that plants can _________.
A. communicate with other living things in a chemical way


B. hardly react to any sudden change in temperature
C. use a very special chemical language which is familiar to us
D. respond to the attack by giving off poisonous chemicals
56.When being eaten by an insect, the plant will _________.
A. walk away from trouble
B. change its chemistry to kill the insect
C. release a chemical vapor to “ask” other plants for help
D. give off nice chemicals to attract friendly insects killing the pest
57.The underlined word “alert” most probably means “_________”.
A. warn B. protect C. threaten D. allow
58. Which would be the best title for the passage?
A. Communication between Plants B. A Chemical “Language”
C. Plants Can Talk D. How Plants Protect Themselves

During the fall months at high school guidance counseling programs, juniors run to the stage to participate in an exercise to help them understand that it is not “where you go” that matters. They hold posters with the names and faces of famous people while their peers (同龄人) and parents shout out with confidence the names of elite (精英) colleges they assume the celebrities attended. The “oohs” and “aahs” follow when they learn that Steven Spielberg, Steve Jobs and Bill Gates dropped out of college, that Oprah Winfrey is a graduate of Tennessee State and that Ken Burns graduated from Hampshire College. If even a few stressed students and their anxious parents benefit from this information, it is a worthwhile exercise.
Even better is giving the students a task to identify the happy, successful people in their own circle of family, friends, co-workers and neighbors and challenging them to go and ask “if or where they went to college” as a means of broadening the conversation in their search for a life after high school.
The key to success in college and beyond has more to do with what students do with their time during college than where they choose to attend. A long-term study of 6,335 college graduates published by the National Bureau of Economic Research found that graduating from a college where entering students have higher SAT scores -- one marker of elite colleges --- didn’t pay off in higher post-graduation income. Researchers found that students who applied to several elite schools but didn’t attend them --- either because of rejection or by their own choice --- are more likely to earn high incomes later than students who actually attended elite schools.
In a summary of the findings, the bureau says that “evidently, students’ motivation, ambition and desire to learn have a much stronger effect on their future success than average academic ability of their classmates.”
The late author Loren Pope, who wrote Looking Beyond the Ivy League and Colleges That Change Lives, noted that the greater the opportunity for engagement and critical, creative and cooperative learning with staff, peers and community, the more likely the chance for future success.


59. The purpose of the guidance counseling programs is to help students _________.
A. apply for suitable colleges
B. learn about college life
C. choose the most famous colleges

60. Ken Burns’ example shows that the successful people _________.
A. don’t need support from their friends
B. have their own circle of family
C. don’t necessarily graduate from a famous college
D. graduate from a famous college
61. What contributes most to students’ success in college and after graduation is _________.
A. whether they enter the elite college or not
B. whether they have spared no effort in college or not
C. whether they possess a higher SAT scores or not
D. whether they have famous schoolmates or not
62. According to Loren Pope, future success depends more on _________.
A. staff, peers and community
B. motivation, ambition and desire to succeed
C. average academic ability of the classmates
D. creation, cooperation and opportunity
D
Competition. It’s a simple word, yet a very complex word that covers many angles when it comes to how gasoline prices are determined. It seems so easy to explain, but don’t let that trick you—it’s incredibly difficult to explain and adequately understand.
Say you’re on a Sunday afternoon drive, and notice a gas station near you charging $3.50. Down the road a few miles, that price could easily be 10 or more cents higher or lower. The question is “how” or “why” is that? Think of it this way. Are you more likely to get a better deal on a car if there are two similar car dealers next to each other? Perhaps, because the dealers are too close. Say there is a third similar car dealer miles away. Is he going to be at the same level of competition and sell his cars for the same price as the two dealers next to each other? Likely not. He may charge more or less. Maybe people don't know there are two other dealers down the road. Maybe the dealer is almost outside of the city and the land value isn't as high, so his taxes aren't as high.
These situations do take place at gas stations. And more factors can impact what a station will charge. Timing can greatly impact what price a station charges as well! Many motorists fail to realize that the price a station pays for gasoline changes daily. If one station gets lucky and buys gas on Monday and the cost goes up Tuesday, the station that bought on Monday doesn’t necessarily have to raise prices like the station that bought on Tuesday. Maybe the station that got caught buying for a higher price on Tuesday will pass that higher cost on by raising its gas price.
Perhaps the difference is what brand the station is---branded stations usually pay a slightly higher cost for their gasoline. In return for paying a higher cost, those stations are guaranteed first supply in case of emergency situations. Independent stations don’t pay as much, but aren’t guaranteed supply.
While competition sounds easy to understand, there are always a large number of factors that could influence what one station charges. Keep in mind how many variables (变数) there are next time you fill up.
