My ears are recently full of joyous remarks from my friends such as, “Oh, Beckham is so handsome, so cool, that I can’t help falling in love with him. I” or “What perfect skills he has?” Yeah, I 36 to some degree, though I sometimes do want to 37 them how much they know about Beckham, apart from his 38 and how much they know about football besides 39 goals. It seems funny that we are 40 about things, with which we are unfamiliar or about which we are 41 but we all, my friends as well as I, consider this one of life’s 42
We need these pleasures to 43 our lives. But that doesn’t amount to craziness or nonsense. As a saying 44 ; “Don’t judge a book by its cover.” We 45 not judge anything from its appearance. We should all know, it is one’s good 46 and great contribution that make one a star and unforgettable. Therefore we’d better say 47 about Beckham’s good looks.
If we close our eyes, falling in deep 48 , we can find that the things that move us to be really happy or sad have a 49 meaning. If we don’t go deeper and are just satisfied with 50 things, sooner or later we’ll find we have not really gained anything because our first 51 has blinded and misled us, and we’ll remain ignorant(無知的) 52 we realize
that and make some changes.
It is believed that thinking and going deeper than before is a 53 of great progress. If one day we are willing to go deeper into everything, no matter how much it pains us, we will 54 prove how much we have 55 up, how much more sensible, mature(成熟的), and intelligent we have become.

閱讀下列短文，從每題所給的四個選項(A、B、C和D)中，選出選項。
A
A Hong Kong school is using the heroine of a Korean soap opera set in the 19th century to teach its pupils life skills.
Yau Ma Tei Catholic School has adopted the hit show “Jewel in the Palace” as a model for a series of classes in which pupils recreate real life situations and work out how the lead character would solve them.
“Dae Jang Geum embodies (shows) the sort of qualities and values that we would like our children to have,” said Patsy Leung, the school’s head of civic education.
In the period drama, set in Korea’s 19th-century Joseon Dynasty, Dae Jang Geum is a servant girl who rises up to become the only female doctor in the emperor’s court. The character’s determination and indomitable spirit made her an instant heroine among Asian TV viewers, taking the show. record audiences last year, becoming a major part of the so-called “Korean Wave” of popular culture that swept briefly across Asia in recent years and made stars of Korean actors and pop singers such as Rain.
“Dae Jang Geum is a strong character who never gives up, no matter how tough the problem is,” said Leung. “She is also a good role model to girls, because she fought against the male-dominated hierarchy(等級制度) and sexism of her time.”
In some of the classes, pupils role play situations as the TV heroine, even dressed in her trademark traditional white Korean gowns.
The Korean television channel that made the show granted the school permission to use five minutes of footage (*) in classes.
“Our pupils play the parts of the characters in problem-solving situations with real footage,” said Leung.
“It allows us to use it as teaching material and is part. of our movie-making class, too.
We hope the pupils will also be able to take it home and pass on the teachings and values of Dae Jang Geum to their family.”

Parents should stop blaming themselves because there’s not a lot they can do about it. I mean the teenager problem. Whatever you do or however you choose to deal with it, at certain times a wonderful, reasonable and helpful child will turn into a terrible animal.
I’ve seen friends deal with it in all kinds of different ways. One strict mother insisted that her son, right from a child, should stand up whenever anyone entered the room, open doors and shake hands like a gentleman. I saw him last week when I called round. Sprawling himself(懶散地躺) on the sofa in full length, he made no attempt to turn off the loud TV he was watching as I walked in, and his greeting was no more than a quick glance at me. His mother was ashamed. “I don’t know what to do with him these days,” she said. “He’s forgotten all the manners we taught him.”
He hasn’t forgotten them. He’s just decided that he’s not going to use them. She confessed (供認) that she would like to come up behind him and throw him down from the sofa onto the floor.
Another good friend of mine let her two daughters climb all over the furniture, reach across the table, stare at me and say “I don’t like your dress; it’s ugly.” One of the daughters has recently been driven out of school. The other has left home.
“Where did we go wrong?” her parents are now very sad. Probably nowhere much. At least, no more than the rest of that unfortunate race, parents.
66. This passage is most probably written by _____.
A. a specialist in teenager studies
B. a headmaster of a middle school
C. a parent with teenage children
D. a doctor for mental health problems
67. The boy on the sofa would most probably be described as ______.
A. lazy B. rude C. unusual D. quiet
68. The underlined word “it” in the second paragraph refers to “______”.
A. the parents’ opinion B. the terrible animal
C. the teenage problem D. the parents’ advice
69. From the second example we can infer that the parents of the two daughters ________.
A. pay no attention to them B. are too busy to look after them
C. have come to hate them D. feel helpless to do much about them
70. What is the author’s opinion of the sudden change in teenage children?
A. Parents have no choice but to try to accept it.
B. Parents should pay much attention to the change.
C. Parents should work closely with school teachers.
D. Parents are at fault for the change in their children.
Do you want to work with people or animals or machines or tools? Do you want to work indoors or outdoors, directly serve people in need or serve people behind the scenes? These are the typical questions that a volunteer service agency would ask.
Every year, thousands and thousands of people in the west offer volunteer services. Volunteering greatly strengthens the community partly because it helps the old the young, the weak, the sick, the disabled and the injured to overcome difficulties.
Volunteers usually help in many different ways. They may give people advice, offer friendship to the young, drive the elderly to church, counsel kids against drugs, work as an assistant in a school or nursing home, raise funds, plant trees, help out in local libraries and do many other things.
Volunteering can be a few hours a week or a few hours a month, time during the day，evenings or weekends, either part time or full time. Anybody _____ can become a volunteer.
The art of volunteering is a process (過程) of both giving and receiving. Volunteering allows volunteers to meet new people and make new friends and mix with people from all walks of life. Volunteering is an excellent way to experiment,practise and try out new techniques and skills. It is much more effective to practise a skill than to read about it or study it in a classroom. Volunteering is a great way to develop good teamwork skills, discover your individual talents and explore career choices. Being a volunteer takes individuals (people) on a wonderful journey and helps them learn many important things beyond their school learning.

I will travel with my parents in Hainan province this summer vacation. We’ll take the, following things with us, which are___________________________________
82. Volunteering allows volunteers to meet new people and make new friends and mix with people from all walks of life.
83. who is willing / likes to serve people in need
84. I like to help out in local libraries, because I like books very much. I’ll arrange them in a good order so that readers can easily find what they want.
I will travel with my parents in Hainan province this summer vacation. We’ll take the following things with us, which are my ID card, a camera, a compass, a CD player and some clothes. I think the ID card is a basic and necessary document, and it is often used by tourists. The camera is used to take pictures or record what we have done during the trip, and it can bring us a lot of fun. We’d better take the compass with us when traveling in the forests, in case we may get lost. And then the CD player I think, is also very important for me to kill the time when on the bus, on the train or the plane. What’s more, I have to bring one or two coats when traveling to a different place in case the weather changes. In a word, among all above, I think the ID card is the most important.
