ure D. A world famous writer, Alice Munro D YOU CAN HELP! Everyone was born with his own built— in burglar alarm. It’s called the sense of sight and sound. Unfortunately, many of us go around with the alarm switched off. We don’t see the stranger wandering outside the house next door. We don’t notice the sounds from the flat upstairs. (Weren’t they supposed to be on holiday?) The police can only do so much to prevent crime. There never can be enough of them to guard every home in every town. So they need your help in fighting with the burglars(窃贼 ), the vandals, and the car thieves. Not, of course, by setting out to have a go every time you see something suspicious. It’ll always be the job of the police to arrest criminals. But by acting as a line of munication between them and your munity. For instance, you probably know far more about your immediate neighborhoods than the police ever could. A stranger in someone’s garden would probably be far more obvious to you than it would to even the local police, if, of course, you were on the lookout. That’s the whole idea behind the Neighborhood Watch schemes, springing up around the country to create a spirit of watchfulness within a munity, anything suspicious being reported to the police.

One of the easiest ways to tell how a person feels about herself is to examine her walk. People with confidence walk quickly. They have places to go, people to see, or important work to do. Even if you aren’t in a hurry, you can increase your selfconfidence by putting some energy in your step. 36 . 37 One of the best ways to build confidence is listening to an inspiring speech. Unluckily, chances to listen to a great speaker are few. You can fill this need by creating a personal speech. Write a 30~60second speech that focuses on your strengths and goals then recite it aloud whenever you need a confidence push. Sit in the Front Row. In school, offices and some other public places people always sit at the back of the room, 38 This is for lack of selfconfidence. By deciding to sit in the front row, you can get over this meaningless fear and build your selfconfidence. Speak up.

Along the same lines as personal appearance, physical fitness has huge effect on selfconfidence. 40 By making your body fit and strong, you improve your physical appearance, refresh yourself, and learn something positive. A. Most people prefer that because they’re afraid of being noticed. B. Walking 25% faster will make you look and feel more important. C. In fact most people feel good after a walk. D. If you’re out of shape, you’ll feel unattractive and less energetic. E. Listen to an Inspiring Speech. F. Create a Personal Speech. G. In fact most people are dealing with the same fear. 第三部分 英语知识运用（共两节，满分 55 分） 第一节 完形填空（共 20小题；每小题 2分，满分 40 分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的四个选项（ A、 B、 C 和 D）中，选出可以填人空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。 What are consequences of laziness?
