ASelfies (自拍) have become an increasingly common way to capture memorable moments. When it comes to taking selfies , knowing the following tips can directly affect the quality of your final product.The use of light is vital to improving image quality. Lights can help avoid shadows and create soft features on your face, so turn your face toward the main light source. If you want to be creative, play with light angles by turning your body, but make sure the photo is properly exposed and your face is lit from the front or the side. Besides, avoid taking selfies against the main light source or with overhead lighting. In addition, natural light possesses a warmth that makes you look like you're glowing.(发光)When taking selfies, angles also matter a lot. Hold the camera away from your face, and try to take photos both horizontally(水平地) and vertically(垂直地). If not, your face might look bigger than usual. Ideally, the universal selfie angle is 45 degrees above your head. But you should study your face at different angles because finding your best angle requires you having seen all of them.One problem with selfies is that most have distracting backgrounds. You can always do more to show others your best side. Try to simplify the background by taking selfies outdoors or in spacious areas. Document yourself engaging in interesting activities---hiking with family members, visiting landmarks, or working out with friends. At least, you can make the photo appealing by getting rid of your outstretched arm or a background that's too busy.You can also download some photo apps that allow you to adjust the lighting and contrast. Some apps offer useful filters, which can change your skin tone and remove pimples (粉刺) on your face.1.To get an image of high quality, you need to _______.A. be under the light sourceB. be against the main lightC. face the main light sourceD. have the photo fully exposed 2.How can you find the angle that suits you most?A. Study your face at different angles.B. Hold the camera far enough from you.C. Keep the camera lower than your face.D. Place the camera 45 degrees above your head.3.Which of the following should be avoided when taking selfies?A. The use of natural light.B. A landmark as a background.C. Changes of the skin tone.D. A busy background.BThe pounding(重击声) was driving Edward crazy. A new neighbor had just moved into the apartment below him. The newcomer was deaf, or seemed to be, because he played his stereo (立体声音响)loud enough for the whole building to hear.On the first day he heard the stereo rocking over, Edward marched downstairs and politely told the newcomer that his stereo was too loud. He asked the new tenant to turn the volume down and keep it down as long as he lived in the building. The tenant appeared surprised and embarrassed, and said, “Oh, I’m sorry. I didn’t realize it was that loud.”So, Edward returned upstairs, feeling good, because he had taken a stand and politely let the newcomer know that loud music was not going to be tolerated. The next day all was quiet, and Edward continued to be pleased with himself. The following day, Edward thought it must be Fourth of July, because a marching band was playing on his street. In fact, it was the new neighbor who was playing his music loud again.Edward was not one to repeat himself, feeling that each time you repeated yourself, you diminished the value of your words. So, he did what he always did with rude neighbors -—grin and bear it. Eventually, they would move away. What else are you going to do?In Los Angeles a year ago, a woman had complained to her upstairs neighbor that he was playing his drums too loud and too often. The drummer repeatedly ignored her. One day the woman walked upstairs and shot the drummer in the head and his girlfriend in the chest. The woman was sentenced to prison for 20 years.The dead drummer won’t bother anyone with his drums, but the woman might be wishing now that she had learned to grin and bear it. If she were still living in her apartment, she could always move. When y ou’re in prison, you don’t have that option.4.The man living below where Edward lived was .A.a deaf man B.the owner of the houseC.a tenant D.an old neighbor5.What did Edward always do with rude neighbors?A.Grinning and bearing it. B.Persuading them to stop repeatedly. C.Shouting them to dead. D.Moving away from the rude neighbors. 6.The woman killed her neighbor because .A.he ignored her advice repeatedly B.she could not stand his playing the music too loudC.she could not put up with him any longer D.he played the drums too often7.The author writes the last paragraph to prove that .A.being in prison means the loss of freedom B.grinning and bearing it is thebest policyC.Edward should follow the example of the woman D.the woman was right to kill her neighborCEven the hardest days contain lessons that will help you be a better person.Feeling down? Consider these things to remember when you’re having a bad day.No one promised life would be perfect.If you look for perfection,you’ll never be content.Don’t condition your happiness on meeting every expectation you set for yourself.It is good to be ambitious,but you’ll never be perfect.If you expect otherwise,your life will be filled with disappointments.Success doesn’t happen overnight.Trees that are slow to grow bear the best fruit.Don’t kid yourself into thinking success will come quickly.It isn’t easy to be patient,but anything worth doing requires time.If you get frustrated,remind yourself why your goal is important.There is a lesson in every struggle.And once the storm is over,you won’t remember how you made it through or how you managed to survive.But one thing is certain.When you come out of the storm,you won’t be the same person who walked in.That’s what this storm’s all about.Don’t complain about how terrible your life is.If you search for the lesson in your present struggle,you’ll be able to make positive changes that would prevent similar situations in the future.Without hard times,you wouldn’t appreciate the good ones.Strength does not come from winning.Your struggles develop your strengths.When you go through hardships and decide not to give in,that is strength.It is hard to find much to smile about when you fail,but how else would you improve yourself? If you look at failure as a part of your evolutionary process,you’ll stay positive and pursue your goals for as long as it takes.8.Which of the following is the best title of this passage?A.Every person has to go through hard times.B.We can learn a lot from our struggles.C.We should accept the fact that life is not perfect.D.Things to remember when you are having a bad day.9.What does the underlined sentence in Paragraph 3 mean?A.Success will come quickly. B.Hard work leads to success. C.Success calls for patience. D.Confidence is the first step to success.10.We can learn from Paragraph 4 that____________.A.1essons from struggles make us stronger B.all things are difficult before they are easyC.we should forget how we managed to survive D.similar situations in the future will never appear11.What can we infer from Paragraph 5?A.Hard times make us lose heart and be short of courage.B.Perseverance in time of hardships develops our strengths.C.Smiles when you fail will not help to improve yourself.D.We should try to avoid failures in the evolutionary process.DThe writer Margaret Mitchell is best known for writing Gone with the Wind, first published in 1936. Her book and the movie based on it, tell a story of love and survival during the American Civil War. Visitors to the Margaret Mitchell House in Atlanta, Georgia, can go where she lived when she started composing the story and learn more about her life.Our first stop at the Margaret Mitchell House is an exhibit area telling about the writer’s life. She was born in Atlanta in 1900. She started writing stories when she was a child. She started working as a reporter for the Atlanta Journal newspaper in 1922. One photograph of Ms. Mitchell, called Peggy, shows her talking to a group of young college boys. She was only about one and a half meters tall. The young men tower over her, but she seems very happy and sure of herself. The tour guide explains: “Now in this picture Peggy is interviewing some boys from Georgia Tech, asking them such questions as “Would you really marry a woman who works?” And today it’d be “Would you marry one who doesn’t?”The Margaret Mitchell House is a building that once contained several apartments. Now we enter the first floor apartment where Ms. Mitchell lived with her husband, John Marsh. They made fun of the small apartment by calling it “The Dump”.Around 1926, Margaret Mitchell had stopped working as a reporter and was at home healing after an injury. Her husband brought her books to read from the library. She read so many books that he bought her a typewriter and said it was time for her to write her own book. Our guide says Gone with the Wind became a huge success. Margaret Mitchell received the Pulitzer Prize for the book. In 1939 the film version was released. It won ten Academy Awards, including Best Picture.12. The book Gone with the Wind was _________.A. first published on a newspaperB. awarded ten Academy AwardsC. written in “The Dump”D. adapted from a movie13. The underlined phrase “tower over” in Paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to_________.A. be very pleased withB. be much taller thanC. show great respect forD. show little interest in14. We can know about Margaret Mitchell from the passage that _________.A. her height made her marriage unhappyB. her interest in writing continued as an adultC. writing stopped her working as a reporterD. her life was full of hardship and sadness15. Which is the best title for the passage?A. Gone with the Wind: A Huge Success.B.Margaret Mitchell: A Great Female Writer.C. An Introduction of the Margaret Mitchell House.D. A Trip to Know Margaret Mitchell.第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10 分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

Her book and the movie based on it, tell a story of love and survival during the American Civil War. Visitors to the Margaret Mitchell House in Atlanta, Georgia, can go where she lived when she started composing the story and learn more about her life.Our first stop at the Margaret Mitchell House is an exhibit area telling about the writer’s life. She was born in Atlanta in 1900. She started writing stories when she was a child. She started working as a reporter for the Atlanta Journal newspaper in 1922. One photograph of Ms. Mitchell, called Peggy, shows her talking to a group of young college boys. She was only about one and a halfmeters tall. The young men tower over her, but she seems very happy and sure of herself. The tourg uide explains “Now in this picture Peggy is interviewing some boys from Georgia Tech, asking them such questions as “Would you really marry a woman who works?” And today it’d be “Would you marry one who doesn’t?”The Margaret Mitchell House is a building that once contained several apartments. Now we enter the first floor apartment where Ms. Mitchell lived with her husband, John Marsh. They made fun of the small apartment by calling it “The Dump”.Around 1926, Margaret Mitchell had stopped working as a reporter and was at home healing after an injury. Her husband brought her books to read from the library. She read so many books that he bought her a typewriter and said it was time for her to write her own book.

Wildwood Way Day Camp is a two-week camp for $115.BOpened in 1883, the Brooklyn Bridge was the first long-span bridge to carry motor traffic, and it quickly became the model for the great suspension bridges of the following century. Spanning New York’s East River, it provided the first traffic artery between Manhattan Island and Brooklyn. Before that, the only transportation was by ferries, which were slow and could be dangerous in winter.The construction of a bridge over the East River had been discussed since the early 19th century, but the outbreak of the Civil War in 1861 deflected all consideration of the project. When the war ended in 1865, the bridge became an important issue once more. In 1867, the New York State passed an act setting up the New York Bridge Company for the purpose of constructing a bridge between Manhattan Island and Brooklyn.John Augustus Roebling was chosen to design the bridge. Born in Germany in 1806, he held aggressive views as a student and was listed by the German police as a dangerous figure. He emigrated to America in 1830 to escape political discrimination.Roebling proposed a bridge with a span of 1,500 feet (465 m), with two towers in the East River serving as the main piers. The bridge that was actually built is longer—1,597 feet (486 m), the longest suspension bridge at that time.4. What was the purpose of building the Brooklyn Bridge?A. To replace an old bridge.B. To set up a model for bridge construction.C. To build a long-span bridge for the Civil War.D. To provide faster and safer transportation than boats.5. Which of the following is closest in meaning to “deflected” in the second paragraph?A. blockedB. developedC. deservedD. indicated6. Which of the following is true about the Brooklyn Bridge?A. It was built in 1865.B. It is shorter than originally planned.C. It was first proposed after the Civil War.D. It was built by the New York Bridge Company.7. According to the passage, which of the following correctly describes John Augustus Roebling?A. He participated in the Civil War and was seriously wounded.B. He was the first person to propose the construction of the bridge.C. He was chosen to design the bridge because of his aggressive views.D. He moved to America because he was discriminated against in his home country.CWhen it comes to medical care, many patients and doctors believe “more is better.” But what they do not realize is that overtreatment—too many scans, too many blood tests, too many procedures—may bring harm. Sometimes a test leads you down a path to more and more testing, some of which may be invasive, or to treatment for things that should be left alone.Terrence Power, for example, complained that after his wife learned she had Wegener’s disease, an uncommon disorder of the immune system, they found it difficult to refuse testing recommended by her doctor. The doctor insisted on office visits every three weeks, even when she was feeling well. He frequently ordered blood tests and X-rays, and repeatedly referred her to specialists for even minor complaints. Even when tests came back negative, more were ordered, and she was hospitalized as prevention when she developed a cold. She had as many as 25 doctor visits during one six-month period. The couple was spending about $30,000 a year for her care.After several years of physical suffering and near financial ruin from the medical costs, the couple began questioning the treatment after discussing with other patients in online support groups. “It’s a really hard thing to determine when they’ve crossed the line,” Mr. Power said. “You think she’s getting the b est care in the world, but after a while you start to wonder: What is the purpose?” Mr. Power then spoke with his own primary care doctor, who advised him to find a new specialist to oversee Mrs. Power’s care. Under the new doctor’s care, the regular testi ng stopped and Mrs. Power’s condition stabilized. Now she sees the doctor only four or five times a year.8. What is the main idea of this passage?A. Treatments do not always cause harmful side effects.B. Patients tend to believe more testing is better treatment.C. Too much medical care may not be beneficial to patients.D. Doctors generally recommend office visits that are necessary.9. Which of the following was a problem for Mrs. Power during her medical treatment?A. She had to be hospitalized for three weeks whenever she had a cold.B. When test results showed she was fine, her doctor still ordered more tests.C. She did not have any insurance, so she became penniless because of her illness.D. Her doctor asked her to consult other specialists due to her constant complaints.10. Who does “they” in the third paragraph most likely refer to?A. Doctors.B. Other patients.C. Mr. and Mrs. Power.D. The online support groups.11. What led to the Powers’ doubt about Mrs. Power’s treatment?A. Mrs. Power’s condition getting worse.B. The results of her blood tests.C. Knowing about other patients’ treatment.D. The advice from Mr. Power’s doctor.DWhat transportation do you use get around town? Perhaps you should try a Segway!The Segway is perfect for short journey. It is an electric vehicle that consists of a platform between two wheels, with a pole that connects the platform to the handlebars. To ride it, you step up onto the platform, and control the Segway by moving your body. Lean forwards to go faster, and backwards to slow down.On older models, direction is controlled by a twist grip on the left handlebar. This varies the speeds between the two motors; a decrease in the speed of the left wheel would turn the Segway to the left. With newer models you simply lean to the left or right. Meanwhile, a gyroscope detects your movements and prevents the machine from falling over. The Segway has a maximum speed of 19 km per hour and a range of about 38 km. After that, you need to plug it in and recharge the battery.Segways are helpful in various situations. People with mobility problems can now enjoy walks in the country with their friends and family. Some golfers use them as an alternative to the golf cart. And dog owners now have an easier way to take the dog to the park. A few police forces use Segways, too. They allow officers to move quickly while maintaining contact with the public. They are also becoming a common sight on airport. However, the most popular use is in tourism, particularly for city tours. Visit any major tourist city in summer, sit outside a cafe for a while and there is a good chance you will see a group of tourists passing on Segways.12.What is the Segway according to this passage?A. A pole that connects two handlebars.B.A newly appeared public traffic vehicle.C. A bicycle with a platform between two wheels.D. An electric two-wheeled vehicle for short trips.13. What controls the speed of a Segway?A. The two handlebars.B. The twist grip on the left.C. The driver’s body movement.D. A gyroscope on the vehicle.14.How far can you travel on a Segway at most?A. Less than 19 km.B. About 19 km.C. About 38 km.D. More than 38 km.15. What does the last paragraph mainly discuss?A. What a Segway is like.B. Where to find a Segway.C. How to control a Segway.D. When a Segway is useful.第二节(共5小题,每小题2分,满分10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项,选项中有两项为多余选项。

ASelfies (自拍) have become an increasingly common way to capture memorable moments. When it comes to taking selfies , knowing the following tips can directly affect the quality of your final product.The use of light is vital to improving image quality. Lights can help avoid shadows and create soft features on your face, so turn your face toward the main light source. If you want to be creative, play with light angles by turning your body, but make sure the photo is properly exposed and your face is lit from the front or the side. Besides, avoid taking selfies against the main light source or with overhead lighting. In addition, natural light possesses a warmth that makes you look like you're glowing.(发光)When taking selfies, angles also matter a lot. Hold the camera away from your face, and try to take photos both horizontally(水平地) and vertically(垂直地). If not, your face might look bigger than usual. Ideally, the universal selfie angle is 45 degrees above your head. But you should study your face at different angles because finding your best angle requires you having seen all of them.One problem with selfies is that most have distracting backgrounds. You can always do more to show others your best side. Try to simplify the background by taking selfies outdoors or in spacious areas. Document yourself engaging in interesting activities---hiking with family members, visiting landmarks, or working out with friends. At least, you can make the photo appealing by getting rid of your outstretched arm or a background that's too busy.You can also download some photo apps that allow you to adjust the lighting and contrast. Some apps offer useful filters, which can change your skin tone and remove pimples (粉刺) on your face.1.To get an image of high quality, you need to _______.A. be under the light sourceB. be against the main lightC. face the main light sourceD. have the photo fully exposed 2.How can you find the angle that suits you most?A. Study your face at different angles.B. Hold the camera far enough from you.C. Keep the camera lower than your face.D. Place the camera 45 degrees above your head.3.Which of the following should be avoided when taking selfies?A. The use of natural light.B. A landmark as a background.C. Changes of the skin tone.D. A busy background.BThe pounding(重击声) was driving Edward crazy. A new neighbor had just moved into the apartment below him. The newcomer was deaf, or seemed to be, because he played his stereo (立体声音响)loud enough for the whole building to hear.On the first day he heard the stereo rocking over, Edward marched downstairs and politely told the newcomer that his stereo was too loud. He asked the new tenant to turn the volume down and keep it down as long as he lived in the building. The tenant appeared surprised and embarrassed, and said, “Oh, I’m sorry. I didn’t realize it was that loud.”So, Edward returned upstairs, feeling good, because he had taken a stand and politely let the newcomer know that loud music was not going to be tolerated. The next day all was quiet, and Edward continued to be pleased with himself. The following day, Edward thought it must be Fourth of July, because a marching band was playing on his street. In fact, it was the new neighbor who was playing his music loud again.Edward was not one to repeat himself, feeling that each time you repeated yourself, you diminished the value of your words. So, he did what he always did with rude neighbors -—grin and bear it. Eventually, they would move away. What else are you going to do?In Los Angeles a year ago, a woman had complained to her upstairs neighbor that he was playing his drums too loud and too often. The drummer repeatedly ignored her. One day the woman walked upstairs and shot the drummer in the head and his girlfriend in the chest. The woman was sentenced to prison for 20 years.The dead drummer won’t bother anyone with his drums, but the woman might be wishing now that she had learned to grin and bear it. If she were still living in her apartment, she could always move. When you’re in prison, you don’t have that option.4.The man living below where Edward lived was .A.a deaf man B.the owner of the houseC.a tenant D.an old neighbor5.What did Edward always do with rude neighbors?A.Grinning and bearing it. B.Persuading them to stop repeatedly. C.Shouting them to dead. D.Moving away from the rude neighbors. 6.The woman killed her neighbor because .A.he ignored her advice repeatedly B.she could not stand his playing the music too loudC.she could not put up with him any longer D.he played the drums too often7.The author writes the last paragraph to prove that .A.being in prison means the loss of freedom B.grinning and bearing it is thebest policyC.Edward should follow the example of the woman D.the woman was right to kill her neighborCEven the hardest days contain lessons that will help you be a better person.Feeling down? Consider these things to remember when you’re having a bad day.No one promised life would be perfect.If you look for perfection,you’ll never be content.Don’t condition your happiness on meeting every expectation you set for yourself.It is good to be ambitious,but you’ll never be perfect.If you expect otherwise,your life will be filled with disappointments.Success doesn’t happen overnight.Trees that are slow to grow bear the best fruit.Don’t kid yourself into thinking success will come quickly.It isn’t easy to be p atient,but anything worth doing requires time.If you get frustrated,remind yourself why your goal is important.There is a lesson in every struggle.And once the storm is over,you won’t remember how you made it through or how you managed to survive.But one thing is certain.When you come out of the storm,you won’t be the same person who walked in.That’s what this storm’s all about.Don’t complain about how terrible your life is.If you search for the lesson in your present struggle,you’ll be able to make positive changes that would prevent similar situations in the future.Without hard times,you wouldn’t appreciate the good ones.Strength does not come from winning.Your struggles develop your strengths.When you go through hardships and decide not to give in,that is strength.It is hard to find much to smile about when you fail,but how else would you improve yourself? If you look at failure as a part of your evolutionary process,you’ll stay positive and pursue your goals for as long as it takes.8.Which of the following is the best title of this passage?A.Every person has to go through hard times.B.We can learn a lot from our struggles.C.We should accept the fact that life is not perfect.D.Things to remember when you are having a bad day.9.What does the underlined sentence in Paragraph 3 mean?A.Success will come quickly. B.Hard work leads to success. C.Success calls for patience. D.Confidence is the first step to success.10.We can learn from Paragraph 4 that____________.A.1essons from struggles make us stronger B.all things are difficult before they are easyC.we should forget how we managed to survive D.similar situations in the future will never appear11.What can we infer from Paragraph 5?A.Hard times make us lose heart and be short of courage.B.Perseverance in time of hardships develops our strengths.C.Smiles when you fail will not help to improve yourself.D.We should try to avoid failures in the evolutionary process.DThe writer Margaret Mitchell is best known for writing Gone with the Wind, first published in 1936.

A. reminding B. remembering C. recalling D. reformingSection BDirections: Read the following three passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.(A)Not many people know about the clouded leopard. Even scientists don’t know much about the animal in the wild because it is so private. We do know that the clouded leopard isn’t actually a leopard. It is a species of its own. However, it does have spots like a leopard. They help it blend into the background in the forest.What else do we know about the cat? It is one of the best climbers of all wild cats. This skill is clearly imprinted in the kittens early on by their mothers and by instinct. In the wild, the cat lives in the tropical rain forests of Asia. It hunts small animals, such as squirrels and monkeys. It is listed on the United States Endangered Species Act. This protects it from being hunted. Scientists have speculated that the wild population is getting smaller, but no actual numbers are available.into extinction.The Clouded Leopard Project has recently begun a conservation effort in Thailand. It is a natural home of the clouded leopard. Funds will be given to the Khao Kheow Open Zoo to help with the breeding of these cats. Part of the money also will help save the habitat of the wild cats. People will work to monitor these wild cats. They will be photographed instead of being sedated, or drugged, to be tagged(加标签). Sedating clouded leopards could cause the cats’ bodies to lose too much water, or worse.The project has had some great successes in the last few years. Two cubs were born in the United States, and two were born in Thailand. Members of the Clouded Leopard Project hope the urge to protect such species will become embedded in people’s minds. They sponsor several education programs at zoos. They also sponsor programs to directly help the cats. Through their work they ultimately will increase the population of this species.65. What made a clouded leopard not easy to find in the forest?A. Spots like a leopard.B. A species of its own.C. Best climbing skills.D. Extinction of such animals.66. _____ is not included in the Clouded Leopard Project?A. Breeding clouded leopards in zoos.B. Monitoring the cats by labeling them.C. Starting educational programs at zoos.D. Saving the cat’s natur al habitat.67. The underlined word “embedded” means _____.A. focusedB. rootedC. determinedD. talented68. Which of the following statement is TRUE?A. Clouded leopard is a rare kind of leopard with nice spots.B. Lack of food in the wild makes the survival of the cats more difficult.C. The Clouded Leopard Project aims at increasing the population of the cat.D. Observing clouded leopards’ behavior protects the cats from being hunted.(B)(C)With greenhouse gas emissions(排放)hitting record levels and passing climate scientist's worst predictions, a new group of Chinese activists is making its voice heard at the United Nations climate talks, the COP17, which was held in Durban, South Africa.The delegation of independent Chinese non-governmental organizations (NGOs) believes that civil society must play a bigger role in the global climate crisis. C Plus is the name given to the project launched by 42 Chinese NGOs, calling for domestic and global action to fight climate change. And they think the best way of demanding governments' action is to take action by themselves. The message is clear: climate action is too important and too urgent. It can't wait. The top-down process of negotiations that we are seeing at the UN is too slow.C Plus has three components, which together explain its name. C Plus stands for: Beyond Commitment. This means that NGOs must put pressure on their governments to achieve targets that are beyond those that have been officially stated. Second is Beyond China -- in other words, NGOs outside and inside of China together must strive to influence their respective governments to take action. Finally, Beyond Climate. The project targets not just carbon reduction but othergovernment's task of environment responsibility and raising public awareness in environment protection.And NGOs can claim some notable successes. NGOs sponsored “26-degree air conditioning office”among the public, which later became a government regulation. A group of Chinese citizens organized together and stopped the construction of a dangerous chemical plant in Xiamen.In total, there are 3,539 environment NGOs in China, in which 55.2 percent now have their own offices, and 26 percent have fixed source of investment. However, most environment NGOs still face problems including difficulty in raising money, shortage in personnel and weak organization ability in their development process.In Durban, Chinese NGOs have arrived as a team and are prepared to state their demands.72. The passage is mainly about _____.A. Durban climate change conferenceB. environment NGOs in ChinaC. C plus project launched by NGOsD. achievements of NGOs73. Which of the following is true about the C Plus?A. It is an organization devoted to controlling the greenhouse gas emission.B. It is a program aiming at influencing government to take action to protect environment.C. It is a project designed by the government to unite NGOs inside and outside China.D. It is a statement calling for public awareness in environment protection.74. Most environment NGOs don’t lack _____.A. financial supportB. human resourcesC. development goalsD. organizational skills75. What can be inferred from the passage about the NGOs?A. They once pushed the government to make a regulation concerning office temperature.B. They pushed forward the slow negotiations by adopting the top-down style.C. They were directly involved in making environment-related policies.D. They successfully pressurized the government to achieve the unofficially stated targets. Section CDirections: Read the following text and choose the most suitable heading from A-F for eachAutism is a disorder of early development that causes severe problems in thinking, communicating with others, and feeling a part of the outside world. Taken from the Greek word autos meaning “alone,” autism prevents children from developing normal social relationships, even with their parents.Not all autistic infants and children are alike; in fact, there is no single typical clinical picture of the disorder. However, certain types of behavior are noted in a majority of autistic children. Autistic infants will not cuddle, and they do not like to be picked up. The usual things that children do to imitate adults, such as waving goodbye, are not observed in autistic children. Instead, autistic children very often repeat such movements as flicking a hand, twisting an arm or leg, or banging the head over and over. Strange gestures and distorted facial expressions are common.Language develops slowly, if at all. Some autistic children remain totally silent, while others merely repeat words they hear or communicate by gestures. They have little or no interest in making friends. They smile rarely, if ever, and will avoid making eye contact. Unlike normal children, they tend to fixate on a single object or task, such as spinning the wheels on a toy car over and over.At one time autism was blamed on bad parenting. Now itis believed to be caused by abnormalities in the brain. Several possible causes of these abnormalities have been proposed: an illness the mother suffered during her pregnancy; too little oxygen at the time of birth; or possiblyan abnormal gene. In some cases, X rays have revealed abnormalities in the structure of the brain itself. There is no way to diagnose autism apart from observing the child's behavior closely over a period of time.Although some patient-tailored programs can help children function better, the life of these children is generally hard to predict. Some will remain severely impaired throughout their lives. A majority always will depend heavily on support from relatives and professional caregivers, and may require special living arrangements and close supervision. However, progressive changes in the treatment of these children have enabled about one in six to live independently and work productively. What’s more, the intelligence level of the child partly affects the ability to function.Section DDirections: Read the passage carefully. Then answer the questions or complete the statements in the fewest possible words. If you have been following the news you will know that the world’s population recently reached seven billion – probably on 31st October.The statistics concerning human population growth are astonishing. It was only 12 years ago, in 1999, that the world’s population reached six billion. In 1969 there were 3.5 billion people on the planet, which is to say our numbers have doubled in only 42 years. A century ago, in 1911, there were only 1.8 billion of us: 26% of today’s total.As for future population growth, it seems there will probably be eight billion people by 2030 and nine billion by around 2050. After that, predictions vary: many experts think the total will rise more slowly, perhaps reaching ten billion by the end of the century; but a few believe the fast rise might continue, leading to a global population of as many as 15 billion by 2100. There are big differences between rates of population growth around the world. The fastest rates are generally in the world’s poorer countries, including those in sub-Saharan Africa, while the populations of rich countries are mostly growing much more slowly, or even shrinking in a few cases. (Germany and Japan, for example, will have smaller populations in 2050 than they do now.) This fact explains another interesting statistic: in 1900 Europe contained around 25% of the world’s people, but in 2050 it will have less than 10%.There are many reasons for fast population growth, but the most significant include medical advances and generally improved standards of living in poor countries, which mean fewer deaths from diseases or from malnutrition. Indeed, average life expectancy across the world has risen 20 years since the 1950s, from 48 to 68, and the biggest rises have been in poor countries.Some people already talk of a crisis of overpopulation, expecting there to be wars over access to natural resources and warning that, because those resources are limited, it is impossible for seven billion people (let alone nine or ten) to have the kind of high-consumption lifestyles that people in the world’s richer countries currently enjoy. Others, however, believe the planet can accommodate another two or three billion humans without a social or environmental disaster.We can only hope the optimists will be proved right.(Note: Answer the questions or complete the statements in NO MORE THAN EIGHT WORDS)81. When was the world’s population half of what it is now?82. There seems to be a connection between a country’s rates of population and_________________________________________.83. What contributed to the fast population growth?84. Some people predicted that the conflict between _______________________ may lead towars.第II卷(共45分)I.Translation (20%)Directions: Translate the following sentences into English, using the words given in the brackets.1. 是到了我们为国家承担责任的时候了。

In his opinion, to be a scientist, you need to be fond of science at first. What’s more, you have to keep practicing as well as learn from other successful scientists. If you would like to be a successful one, besides working hard, you are supposed to set up clear goals as well. What James Watson suggested is that every child who is curious about science should spare no effort / make his effort to achieve the dream of becoming a scientist.第二节读写任务(满分25分)One possible versionA blind boy got little help when begging for money from others with some words written on a sign. But he finally attracted many pedestrians’ attention after a passer-by offered to rewrite those words, receiving much help.The story shows the power of “a good idea”, which plays an significant role in our daily life. People with good ideas see things in an unusual and unique angle, showing an ability to catch inspiration of life and to finish their things efficiently / effectively.Years ago, I came across a car accident on the way to school, seriously hurt, and was sent to hospital immediately. On hearing this, my parents rushed to the hospital. Knowing that I could not walk any more from the doctor, they were lost in deep despair. But my father stood on his feet with a good idea, telling everyone who knew the result not to inform me of the result but to say to me that the doctor said I would walk again. With the love and the encouragement from my parents, I kept doing physical training with confidence. Finally, I could walk by myself by a miracle, which surprised the doctor.When it comes to how to get a good idea, I consider that we are supposed to acquire as much knowledge as possible, which provides a solid foundation for our good ideas. Besides, we should be open-minded, optimistic about life, share ideas with our friends who may have better ideas, and enlarge our reading to widen and enrich our mind.。
