Years ago, if a teenager had some problems in his life, he might go home and write in his diary; now, a teenager with 36 problems might go onto the Internet and write about them in a blog （博客）．In many ways, a diary and a blog are very 37 ．But what makes blogging different from writing in a（n） 38 diary?
The biggest difference is that a blog is much more 39 than a diary． Usually, a teenager treats his diary like a book full of 40 that he does not want to 41 with others．
It’s interesting that someone who writes in a blog 42 a diary will probably write nearly the same information．
I have a little sister, and sometimes I go online to read her 43 ．She writes about things like waking up early for swimming practice and not studying enough for her chemistry test．44 I was her age, I wrote about the same things, but 45 in my dairy．Then, after I had finished writing, I would hide my diary in a secret place because I was 46 that my sister might read it．
The biggest 47 with blogging is that anyone can read what you write．If I was angry with a friend during high school and wrote something 48 about him in my diary, he would never know．49 , if my sister ever wrote something bad about a friend, that friend might 50 her blog and get angry．
There are also 51 to blogging, of course．If I was feeling sad one day and wrote in my diary, “ Nobody cares about me”, because no one would 52 about it．However, if my sister wrote the same sentence in her blog, her best friends would quickly 53 and tell her how much they 54 _ her．Blogs help people 55 in touch with their friends and know what the people around them are doing．
36．A．interesting B．the same C．difficult D．daily
37．A．simple B．special C．different D．similar
38．A．traditional B．ordinary C．meaningful D．personal
39．A．attractive B．exciting C．public D．quick

42．A．as well as B．instead of C．except for D．besides

第三部分 阅读理解（共 20 小题，满分 40 分）
阅读下面短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C、D）中，选出最佳选项。
A
One Sunday, my family had gathered at my parents’ house to feast upon Mom’s wonderful cooking．During the normal dinner chatter （闲聊）, I noticed that my father was slurring （说话含混） his words．No one mentioned this during dinner, but I felt compelled to discuss it with my mother afterward．
We decided that there was something seriously wrong and that Dad needed to see the doctor．
Mom phoned me two days later．“The doctor found a brain tumor （肿瘤）．It’s too large at this point to operate．Maybe they can do something then, but the odds are long．”
Even with the treatment, my father’s condition worsened, and the doctor finally informed us that this condition was terminal （晚期的）．During one of his stays in the hospital, we brought our baby daughter Chelsey with us when we visited him．By this time he had great difficulty speaking．I finally figured out that he wanted Chelsey to sit on his stomach so he could make faces at her．
Watching the two of them together, I realized I was living an experience that would stay with me forever．Though grateful for the times they could share, I couldn’t shake the feeling of a clock ticking in the background．
On the visit to my parents’ home during what we all know was my father’s last days, my mother took Chelsey from my arms and announced, “Your father would like to see you alone for a minute．”
I entered the bedroom where my father lay on a rented hospital bed．He appeared even weaker than the day before．
“How are you feeling, Dad?” I asked．“Can I do anything for you?”
He tried to speak, but he couldn’t make out a word．
“I’m sorry, but I can’t understand you,” I said．
With great difficulty he said, “I love you．”
We don’t learn courage from heroes on the evening news．We learn true courage from watching ordinary people rise above hopeless situations．In many ways my father was a strict, uncommunicative man．He found it difficult to show emotion．The bravest thing I ever saw him do was overcome that barrier to open his heart to his son and family at the end of his life．
56．Which of the following statements is TRUE?
A．The writer accompanied his father to a medical examination．
B．The writer’s father got worse after the removal of the brain tumor．
C．The writer’s father had known about his illness before the writer
discovered it．
D．The writer was quick to notice the strange condition of his father．
