ADear students,I am Jeremy C. Curimao and it is my great pleasure to share with you my experience in journalism.What a year it has been! Since I decided to choose Journalism earlier on in the year, my ideas and thoughts about journalism in general have really changed. From the news articles I have written to the documentaries (纪录⽚) our class has watched, I have certainly gained quite a broad knowledge about journalism.I am very thankful for this class. Believe it or not, I am going to college to major in Journalism! I am going to San Francisco State University in the fall to get my general education done and hopefully stay with my major, which is Online / Print Journalism! Taking this high school course was a really good choice on my part and I plan to develop my writing and publishing skills in college.It is very unfortunate that Journalism will not be a main course next year, and I was really saddened by the news. Despite (不管) this discomforting piece of information, I am glad that the newspaper will still continue to be published in a school club.I leave this course with a new confidence in writing. I hope that other writers now in Oceana will be equally inspired and finally join the Journalism Club in hopes of taking charge of The Weekly Fog.Thank you.Yours,Jeremy C. Curimao21.

It is a challenge many disabled athletes face, unless someone agrees to be their eyes and ears.Newly formed group Achilles Brisbane pairs vision- and hearing-impaired (视觉和听觉受损的) athletes with a person who would like to guide them.“When we go out, we’re always going out into an unknown course,” said Achilles Brisbane president Jane Britt, who is both vi sion and hearing impaired. “It’s much less frightening to have someone beside you that has full hearing to listen for you and tell you what’s there.”Ms Cullen and Ms Britt meet up most Saturday mornings to take part in the free five-kilometre Southbank park run. Their partnership is built on trust, but Ms Britt said that it took time to develop.Ms Britt said it took an unexpected storm for her to trust Ms Cullen completely. “There was violent rain, my glasses were broken and we were walking together,” she said. “I suddenly had to tell her I couldn’t see anything, and I was going to have tocompletely trust her. From that time I knew it was going to work because she was so good about dealing with the special situation we both found ourselves in.”Isabella Allen and her seeing-eye dog Tatum are two new additions to the Achilles programme. Ms Allen kept active by running and cycling but found it difficult to keep going as her vision became worse. After nearly giving up completely, she worked up the courage to ask Brisbane to find someone to share a boat with her.Ms Allen said the fear of not finding anyone to row with almost stopped her from reaching out to Achilles Brisbane. “But, they found people and matched me to them,” she said. “It’s the best thing I’ve ever done.”24. What does Paragraph 1 try to show?A. The exercise people do to keep fit.B. The danger of walking on a busy road.C. The difficulty the disabled athletes face.D. The necessity of building roads for the blind.25. How does Jane Britt feel about going out alone?A. Worried.B. Relaxed.C. Excited.D. Bored.26. What happened in the heavy rain according to Ms Britt?A. She fell down on the ground.B. She led Ms Cullen forward on the road.C. She developed a strong sense of teamwork.D. She began to rely on Ms Cullen as her guide.27. What was the best thing Ms Allen has done?A. Asking Brisbane for help.B. Working in Brisbane.C. Exercising non-stop.D. Meeting Tatum.If you could design your own school and study whatever you wanted, what would you choose to learn?This isn’t an unlikely question for students at Monument Mountain Regional High School, who are taking part in an activity called the Independent Project. The program is a special school within the Massachusetts public high sch ool that’s completely run by students — no teachers, parents, or adults are allowed — and they’re in charge of deciding their whole curriculum (课程).These teens’ homework and what they study in the classroom are all totally up to them. Charles Tsai, a journalist, made a 15-minute film about the project that shows the wide variety of activities different students join.Students aren’t taking this lightly — instead of reacting irresponsibly to the freedom to design their own studies, they’re dealing with thei r own interests by writing poetry collections, learning instruments and taking flight lessons.The program is this: On Mondays students come up with questions in relation to one of their school subjects, then they spend the rest of the week researching and coming up with possible conclusions to these questions. On Fridays, they present this information to their classmates.“I think the more choices we have in our school, the more students we will help develop into the kind of citizens that we need,”Principal (校长) Marianne Young explains in the film.In the video, teens express their satisfaction with the program because it holds different kinds of learners, even those who don’t always succeed in a traditional study situation.“I have difficulty in reading and writing. School has always been a big problem for me,” one student named Sergio explains in the video. “If it were not for this program, I don’t know if I’d be graduating —I don’t know where I’d be right now. I think this has really been my savior (救星) and got me through the last two years of high school.”28. What is the Independent Project about?A. Various activities for students.B. Student-centered curricula.C. A self-designed school.D. Teacher-free classes.29. How does the program work?A. Teachers work out a curriculum for students.B. Students research topics they put forward.C. Teachers work together with students.D. Students serve as teachers in turn.30. What’s Marianne Young’s attitude towards the project?A. Curious.B. Doubtful.C. Uncertain.D. Optimistic.31. What do we know about Sergio?A. He finds it hard to graduate.B. He has bitter memories of high school.C. He feels grateful to the Independent Project.D. He performs badly in the Independent Project.Jeffrey Hall, a teacher of Communications from the University of Kansas (KU), has used his research to define (明确) the exact amount of time necessary to make friends with someone. He’s also found how long it will take to deepen a relationship. His new study found that it takes around 50 hours of time together to go from being someone’s acquaintance (泛泛之交) to casual (感情不深的) friend. It takes about 90 hours to go from being casual friends to friends, and more than 200 hours before considering someone a close friend or best friend.But it isn’t spending just any kind of time together that deepens a friendship —hours spent working together, for example, don’t count as much as hours spent getting to know someone by hanging out, joking around, playing video games, and doingmore playful activities. The study explains that these kinds of activities help us to form a deeper connection with someone.“We have to put that time in,” Hallsaid. “You can’t make a friend without any effort (努⼒).”The results of the study come from analysis of 355 responses to an online survey from adults who said they had moved in the last six months and were looking for new friends in their new homes. Survey participants (参与者) were asked about new relationships as well as hours spent together and activities they did. They were then asked to rate their resulting relationships according to one of fourstages: acquaintance, casual friend, friend and close friend.The main conclusion that Hall came to is that making close friends takes serious effort. So if you want to have some best friends, you have to know that spending time with someone is the most important thing.32. How long does it take to turn an acquaintance into a friend?A. About 50 hours.B. About 90 hours.C. About 140 hours.D. About 200 hours.33. Wh at does the underlined part “that time” in Paragraph 2 refer to?A. Time spent working together.B. Time spent finding new friends.C. Time spent helping a new friend.D. Time spent doing fun things together.34. Which may help deepen a friendship according to the study?A. Trying to understand your friend’s feelings.B. Enjoying quality time with your friend.C. Treating a new friend like a close one.D. Being generous to your friend.35. What is the main purpose of the text?A. To solve a relationship problem.B. To introduce a teacher from KU.C. To present the findings of a new study.D. To discuss the importance of friendship.第⼆节（共5⼩题；每⼩题2分，满分10分）However, few people know that body language in the two countries can be just as different.37 For example, an American visiting France may be surprised when a waiter brings him three cups of coffee even though he thought he only ordered two. His problem? He held up his index finger (⾷指) and his middle finger to show the number two. Since the French start counting on the thumb (拇指), however, the waiter understood that to mean three.Hand signals are not the only difference in body language between Americans and the French. 38 An American who asks a French person for her ideas may be surprised when she reacts by frowning. Americans tend to smile a lot, especially when responding to questions. The French, on the other hand, sometimes react by pouting (撇嘴). This facial expression shows that a French person is thinking.The French also greet each other in a different way than Americansdo. 39 Americans do not touch nearly as often when they greet each other.40 However, an American visiting France may still need more than a dictionary to communicate with the French.A. Americans tend to be socially open minded.B. Most people know that they speak different languages.C. The French never meet each other as often as Americans do.D. Facial expressions can also be different in the two countries.E. The difference in hand signals could lead to cultural misunderstandings.F. French friends kiss or shake hands every time they meet or say goodbye.G. An American will probably find the unexpected surprise quite refreshing.第三部分：语⾔知识运⽤（共两节，满分45分）第⼀节（共20⼩题；每⼩题1.5分，满分30分）阅读下⾯短⽂，从短⽂后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可以填⼊空⽩处的最佳选项。

The teacher read:“There’s a(n) 26 in heaven called the fountain (源泉) of hearts, where, before birth, each heart is assigned (赋予) its special gifts.

I have traveled a lot with my family over the years, but some experiences were worth forgetting altogether. I remember a particular traveling experience I had with my dad and stepmother, which sticks out in my mind for the wrong reasons.My dad and stepmother had decided to drive to California for our family vacation. This was supposed to provide educational value, since we would be able to stop along the way and look at various sites in each state. Everything was going as planned until we decided to take a break and stop at the Grand Canyon (大峡谷). I had always wanted to see this exciting place and had decided to write a report on it for the eighth-grade English class. We got out of the car and were walking on one of the paths to get to a cliff (悬崖) so we could take a family photo when I slipped and fell. I fell on a piece of rock, and immediately felt the pain shot up my leg. My dad took me to the nearest hospital and after an eight-hour wait in the emergency room, found out that my two bones in my foot broken.Needless to say, our vacation was no fun for me because I was in pain and had a plastic cast on my foot during the whole two-week trip. I ended up making an appointment the day we got home to see an orthopedist. That was definitely not what I consider fun or a great vacation, and it really put a dent in our sightseeing plans. Who knew that trying to take a family picture would ruin my family vacat ion? I make up my mind I’ll have to put safety first whenever I have a trip in future.36. Why does the author always remember the particular traveling experience?A. Because he wrote a good report on it.B. Because a terrible accident during the trip taught him a lesson.C. Because the sites there provided special educational value for him.D. Because they drove to California for the first time.37. The author slipped and fell when he was .A. talking to his fatherB. walking on a path to the cliffC. taking a photo of their familyD. overlooking the Grand Canyon38. From the text we can learn that .A. the bones of the author’s two legs were brokenB. the author waited for 8 hours before the treatmentC. the author was taken to the hospital near his homeD. the author’s trip lasted about half a month39. What does the underlined word “orthopedist” in Paragraph 3 probably mean?A. The man who helps comfort whoever is unhappy.B. The man who helps improve somebody’s studies.C. The man who helps prevent bone shapes being unnatural.D. The doctor who helps save one’s life by operation.BFor people who don’t fear death and love large angry hairy animals, the Pamplona Bull Run is the perfect festival for them. The running of the bulls is part of the San Fermin Festival, which begins on 6th, July and lasts until 14th, July every year in Pamplona, Spain. People run through streets with angry bulls running after them. A bit of advice, if you happen to fall while doing the run, curl into a ball and hope for the best.Every year on 21st, August in the El Salvadorian town of Nejapa, the festival Bolas de Fuego is held. Men on opposing teams throw burning clothes at each other. It is surely a dangerous act. However, it is a tradition that dates back as far as 1685 after a volcano erupted (爆发) in this town.The Baby Jumping Festival takes place in June each year in Castrillo de Murcia, Spain. It is a truly crazy Spanish practice that dates all the way back to 1620. Grown men dressed as the devil jump over babies born in the last 12 months of the year. The main aim of the festival is to protect babies against illness and evil spirits.Now this is one for all cheese lovers. On the Spring Bank Holiday in May, the British gather on the top of Coopers Hill and from the top they roll down a 4-kg round of Double Gloucester cheese and then run after it. The first person over the finish line without injuries wins the cheese. The cheese can reach a speed of 112 km/h. Injuries are common. Luckily, doctors are waiting just beyond the finish line.The mud festival held every year at Boryeong in South Korea is a bit dirty as it sounds. However, for lovers of mud-wrestling, this is the festival that is not to be missed.There are many othe r odd festivals around the world. I’d like to introduce you some more next time.40. Grown men dressed as the devil jump over babies in order to .A. celebrate the birth of new livesB. teach babies to become braveC. celebrate new babies’ first birth dayD. protect babies against illness and evil spirits41. What can we learn about the festival mentioned in Paragraph 4?A. Participants are very likely to get injured.B. It is a festival mainly held for doctors in Britain.C. Those who find the heaviest cheese win the game.D. A participant has to reach a speed of 112 km/h in order to win.42. Which of the following pictures shows the festival that is held in South Korea?A. B. C. D.43. The writer wrote this passage mainly to .A. tell us the history of several strange festivalsB. introduce several strange festivals around the worldC. show that people like doing strange things in their free timeD. tell us what festivals to avoid when we travel abroadCIf your high school doesn’t have a newspaper, you can help start one online. If your high school already has a printed newspaper, adding an online version can help you reach new audiences and add new content. It’s also cheaper to show than a printed ve rsion. A digital newspaper can be a chance for high school students to gain experience with journalism and with working online.Discuss with other student journalists to decide what kind of online newspaper you want. If your news site will only have an article or two a day, you may want to use a blog template (模板). If you plan to publish a more magazine-style weekly edition with more stories, you will probably want a more complicated front page to show what’s in each issue. Your website will also need to support any additional features such as slide shows (幻灯片放映) and polls.After you have decided what you want your newspaper to look like, try to collect some money. Although it’s possible to launch a website for free, even $50 will help your newspaper buy a memorable website address. These expenses can be made back later through online advertising.Create content for your newspaper. Along with written articles, an online newspaper is a great place for multimedia and interactive content such as photo slide shows, videos, polls, forums and calendars. Use a mix of content and a variety of voices to encourage more page views.Market your newspaper. You can promote it through old-fashioned announcements such as flyers (宣传单) and word of mouth, but it might be better to advertise through e-mails or messages and posts on social networking sites such as Facebook, Myspace and Twitter.44. You can use a blog template if .A. you want to have an interaction with othersB. you want to receive comments from readersC. you have just a few articles a dayD. you have many articles a day45.

To make more friends through them.C. To borrow some articles from them.D. To learn from them.DBy far the most important factor is how much time you are immersed in the language. The more time you spend with the language, the faster you will learn. This means listening, reading, writing, speaking, and studying words and phrases. This does not mean sitting in class looking out of the window, nor listening to other students who do not speak well. This means spending time enjoyably connecting to the language you are learning.Listen wherever you are on your MP3 player. Read what you are listening to. Listen to and read things that you like, things that you can mostly understand, or even partly understand. If you keep listening and reading, you will get used to the language. One hour of listening or reading is more effective than many hours of class time.Build up your vocabulary; you’ll need lots. Start to notice words and how they come together as phrases. Learn these words and phrases through your listening and reading. Read online, use online dictionaries, and make your own vocabulary lists for review. Gradually you will be able to use them. Do not worry about how accurately you speak until you have accumulated (积累) plenty of words through listening and reading.Choose content of interest that you want to listen to and read. Seek out the words and phrases that you need to understand. Do not wait for someone else to show you the language, nor to tell you what to do. Discover the language by yourself, like a child growing up. Talk when you feel like it. Write when you feel like it. A teacher cannot teach you to become fluent, but you can learn to become fluent if you want to.Do not worry about what you cannot remember, or cannot yet understand, or cannot yet say. It does not matter. You are learning and improving. The language will gradually become clearer in your brain. So sit back and enjoy. Just make sure you spend enough time with the language. That is the greatest guarantee of success.48. What should we do to learn a foreign language well?A. Listen to other students whether they speak well or not.B. Speak a language accurately from the very beginning.C. Discover a language by yourself, like a child growing up.D. Ask your parents or a teacher to tell you what to do.49. Where should we listen to a language?A. In the classroom.B. Wherever we are.C. On the Internet.D. In the street.50. The text is mainly intended for .A. parentsB. teachersC. language learnersD. school leaders51. What’s the best title of the passage?A. The importance of learning a foreign languageB. How to learn a foreign languageC. Why to learn a foreign languageD.

This reminds us of the power one person can have by taking a stand for a worthy cause.Alex was born to Jay and Liz Scott from Manchester, CT. Before her first birthday she was diagnosed (诊断) with neuroblastoma, a childhood cancer. This type of cancer affects the nervous system. Jay and Liz were told by doctors that if Alex beat the cancer she would most likely never walk again. Challenging the doctors’ prediction, Alex was crawling (爬) by her second birthday and able to stand up. She continued to gain strength and to learn how to walk. This was just the start of her unstoppable spirit.Within the next year, Alex’s tumors (肿瘤) started to grow again, and, in the year 2000, a day after her fourth birthday, she received a stem cell transplant (移植). She informed her mother that when she left the hospital she would have a lemonade stand to help doctors find a cure for childhood cancer.True to her words, Alex had her first lemonade stand later that year. She raised $2,000 for her hospital, a remarkable achievement. Alex continued to hold lemonade stands annuallyin her front yard, while battling cancer. When the news spread of this extraordinary young girl’s helping other sick children, people all over the world became inspi red to hold their own stands and donated the income to Alex’s Lemonade Stand Foundation.When Alex passed away in August 2004, at the age of 8, she had raised over $1 million for childhood cancer research with the help of others. Liz and Jay, along with their three sons, Patrick, Eddie and Joey, continue the promise to Alex and all children with cancer, the promise of hope for a cure.Since 2004, because of Alex’s giving nature, adults and children have joined in the fight for a cure hosting over 8,000 Al ex’s Lemonade Stands across the country. These stands represent different groups of devoted volunteers from large and small businesses, inner city school children, senior centers, pre-school aged children, middle school students, college students, and a group of homeless people.The lesson, according to the website of Alex’s Lemonade Stand Foundation, that everyone learns from holding their own lemonade stands is simple but powerful —every person can make a difference in the world.In the spirit of Martin Luther King’s famous quote, “Everybody can be great, because anybody can serve. You don’t have to have a college degree to serve. You don’t have to make your subject and verb agree to serve … You only need a heart full of grace, a soul generated by love.”Alex’s Lemonade Stand Foundation shares the vision of its founder and creator, Alexandra “Alex” Scott —a cure for all children with cancer. You can hold your own Alex’s Lemonade Stand to help raise funds for childhood cancer research. This is a great way to teach children about the virtue (美德) of service in a fun, easy and inexpensive way. For more information, contact Alex’s Lemonade Stand Foundation.52. When Alex decided to hold a lemonade stand, she wanted to .A. battle cancer in a special wayB. raise money for her future treatmentC. raise money for childhood cancer researchD. spread news of an extraordinary girl53. Before Alex’s death, her family had promised that they would .A. join the cancer research groupB. look after other sick children in hospitalC. donate more to Alex’s Lemonade Stand FoundationD. continue her hope for a cure of childhood cancer54. What can we learn from Alex’s story?A. Everyone can make a difference.B. Many hands make light work.C. Each of us could have a lemonade stand.D. The good are all rewarded.55. What is the best title of this passage?A. Alex’s Battling Against Childhood CancerB.How to Cure Childhood CancerC. Alex’s Lemonade Stand FoundationD.

AMy mom was a single parent, and she joined the US Army when I was very young. I’d been living with my grandparents. I didn’t do well in my studies after I entered high school and I was concerned.In October of my junior year in high school, my grandpa took me to Cleveland, Ohio, to see the Cleveland Browns play the New York Jets. In the middle of that cold day, we headed to the stadium.The seating attendant (服务员) looked at our tickets and led us to our seats. We had 2nd-row seats on the 10 yard line. We were so close to the field that we could actually reach out and touch the players.I felt as if I was living a fantasy. Suddenly, a cheer went up from the crowd as the two teams came rushing across the stadium grounds. The “NEW YORK JETS” in their green and white came out first. There was lots of applauding (鼓掌). Then out came the home team — “CLEVELAND BROWNS” in their orange and brown. There was lots of applauding, too. The Browns started the game with a kick-off to the Jets.I was amazed at the size of those guys. They looked like “giants” out there. They were so fast on their feet. I sensed a real closeness among the players. I thought to myself, “It is such a different world watching a football game live than watching it on television.”The Browns held on to get a 20-13 win — their second win of the year. The fans went into the greatest cheer ever. As I stood up and began to move with the crowd, heading out of the stadium, thoughts began rushing through my head, “If I work harder in school and pursue a college educa-tion, I can be successful. It is not too late. I will just have to work hard.”1. What does Paragraph 1 intend to do?A. Introduce the purpose of the text.B. Add some background information.C. Analyze the main characters of the story.D. Imply the author’s relation with his mom.2. What do we know about the match?A. The match attracted few audiences.B. The match began in the evening.C. The Browns had a score of 13.D. The home team won it.3. What can be the best title for this text?A. My favorite football team to win the finalB. My first trip to Cleveland with my grandpaC. My memorable high school life as a football fanD. My unforgettable experience of watching a gameBAirbus says it has turned the comer after a crisis (危机) connected to production problems in the past year. Speaking at the Paris air show held by GIFAS, Louis Gallois, CEO of the European plane maker, said, “Airbus is back.” Airbus announced a list of orders on the first day of the show. It is competing with Boeing, its American rival (对手), for the title of the largest plane maker in the world.Boeing is expected to disclose the numbers of orders for its 787 Dreamliner soon. Airbus orders unfolded on Monday included Qatar Airways confirming a $16bn order for 80 A350 Airbus planes and ordering three A3 80 planes for about $750m.In addition to airline companies, Boeing and Airbus are also competing for orders from aircraft renting firms. Orders from these companies — who rank highly among the biggest global buyers of aircraft — are often regarded as a sign of how successful a model will be in the long term. Airbus also secured orders from US Airways that are worth $10bn for 22 of its A350 jets, 60A320s and ten of its A330-200 wide-body planes.A few months ago, Airbus uncovered a major cost-cutting programme aiming to reduce the workforce in Europe by 10,000, as well as announcing a group restructuring. “I can tell you with full confidence that Airbus is back and fully back, as you have started noting yesterday as proved by our announcements on the first day,” said Mr Gallois on the second day of the air show. However, Boeing also announced a deal with General Electric (GE) on the show’s first day. GE placed an order for six 777 Boeing transport airplanes valued at around $1.4bn.A Wall Street Journal website report, quoting the Delta operating chief, said that Delta Air Lines was on the point of ordering as many as 125 Boeing 787 jetliners (喷气式客机) by the end of this year. However, a spokesman for Delta later said that it had been having conversations with several aircraft makers and no final decision had been made yet.4. What is the relationship between Airbus and Boeing?A. Boeing is Airbus’s US branch.B. Boeing supplies materials to Airbus.C. They are competitors in aircraft industry.D. They co-organized the Paris air show many times.5. According to the text, orders from aircraft renting firms ____________.A. are necessary to be kept secretB. can discourage other global buyers of aircraftC. can suggest the future success of certain aircraftD. are easier to get than those from airline companies6. What does the last paragraph imply?A. Boeing and Airbus are probably competing for orders from Delta.B. The Delta spokesman was interviewed by The Wall Street Journal.C. The Delta operating chief signed the agreement with Boeing.D. Boeing is planning to reduce its workforce in Europe.CPeople who are able to effectively go through the highs and lows of life have what is called resilience (坚韧), or the ability to effectively recover from adversity (逆境).Whenever you come across a difficult situation, you have two choices: you can either let your emotions get the best of you and be defeated by fear, or you can uplift yourself from the negative and change pain into possibility. I think life is like a roller-coaster (过山车) ride. Even if you consider yourself to be a happy person, it’s unavoidable that you will run into challenges at some point along your journey.Sometimes it isn’t until you hit your emotional rock bottom that you are able to develop your resilience. This is how I came to discover my strength. I once survived a deadly car accident that left me with a backbone and brain injury. The doctor told me I may never walk again. At that moment, I just wanted to give up, but I didn’t. Regardless of my doctor’s orders, I continued my master’s degree, while lying in bed for 6 months. I was determined to keep feeding my brain with new knowledge. Falling into discouragement wasn’t my choice; instead, I took action to create a new reality for myself and my resilience worked. Now I’ve become a new self, one that is stronger and wiser.When you unleash your inner power, there is no challenge that you cannot conquer. In a study started by Vodafone, nearly 100 percent of the participants mentioned resilience as a factor in job success. Numbers don’t lie. Resilience is the secret to success. When they get knocked down, they are still able to move forward, meaning that they are able to use life’s greatest adversities as springboards for success.The next time life throws you a curveball (曲线球), trust that you are strong enough to stay in the game. Adversity may bend you, but doesn’t break you. It doesn’t matter how many times you fall; all that matters is that you get up and keep moving forward. In the words of the famous Japanese saying, “Fall seven times, and stand up eight.”7. Why does the author compare life to a roller-coaster ride?A. He loves riding a roller-coaster.B. Life is full of difficult choices.C. He wants to act as a happy person.D. Life is going with unexpected challenges.8. The author uses the example of himself to show _________.A. how resilience benefitted himB. a master’s degree is hard to getC. the doctor’s orders were unreasonableD. how he discovered his lack of knowledge9. What does the underlined word “unleash” in Paragraph 4 probably mean?A. Ignore.B. Take in.C. Bring out.D. Overcome.10. What does the author intend to tell us in the last paragraph?A. Practice makes perfect.B. Failure is the mother of success.C. Avoid falling in the same place.D. Face adversities with confidence.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。

I have traveled a lot with my family over the years, but some experiences were worth forgetting altogether. I remember a particular traveling experience I had with my dad and stepmother, which sticks out in my mind for the wrong reasons.My dad and stepmother had decided to drive to California for our family vacation. This was supposed to provide educational value, since we would be able to stop along the way and look at various sites in each state. Everything was going as planned until we decided to take a break and stop at the Grand Canyon (大峡谷). I had always wanted to see this exciting place and had decided to write a report on it for the eighth-grade English class. We got out of the car and were walking on one of the paths to get to a cliff (悬崖) so we could take a family photo when I slipped and fell. I fell on a piece of rock, and immediately felt the pain shot up my leg. My dad took me to the nearest hospital and after an eight-hour wait in the emergency room, found out that my two bones in my foot broken.Needless to say, our vacation was no fun for me because I was in pain and had a plastic cast on my foot during the whole two-week trip. I ended up making an appointment the day we got home to see an orthopedist. That was definitely not what I consider fun or a great vacation, and it really put a dent in our sightseeing plans. Who knew that trying to take a family picture would ruin my family vacation? I make up my mind I’ll have to put safety first whenever I have a trip in future.31. Why does the author always remember the particular traveling experience?A. Because he wrote a good report on it.B. Because a terrible accident during the trip taught him a lesson.C. Because the sites there provided special educational value for him.D. Because they drove to California for the first time.32. The author slipped and fell when he was .A. talking to his fatherB. walking on a path to the cliffC. taking a photo of their familyD. overlooking the Grand Canyon33. From the text we can learn that .A. the bones of the author’s two legs were brokenB. the author waited for 8 hours before the treatmentC. the author was taken to the hospital near his homeD. the author’s trip lasted about half a month34. What does the underlined word “orthopedist” in Paragraph 3 probably mean?A. The man who helps comfort whoever is unhappy.B. The man who helps improve somebody’s studies.C. The man who helps prevent bone shapes being unnatural.D. The doctor who helps save one’s life by operation.BFor people who don’t fear death and love large angry hairy animals, the Pamplona Bull Run is the perfect festival for them. The running of the bulls is part of the San Fermin Festival, which begins on 6th, July and lasts until 14th, July every year in Pamplona, Spain. People run through streets with angry bulls running after them. A bit of advice, if you happen to fall while doing the run, curl into a ball and hope for the best.Every year on 21st, August in the El Salvadorian town of Nejapa, the festival Bolas de Fuego is held. Men on opposing teams throw burning clothes at each other. It is surely a dangerous act. However, it is a tradition that dates back as far as 1685 after a volcano erupted (爆发) in this town.The Baby Jumping Festival takes place in June each year in Castrillo de Murcia, Spain. It is a truly crazy Spanish practice that dates all the way back to 1620. Grown men dressed as the devil jump over babies born in the last 12 months of the year. The main aim of the festival is to protect babies against illness and evil spirits.Now this is one for all cheese lovers. On the Spring Bank Holiday in May, the British gather on the top of Coopers Hill and from the top they roll down a 4-kg round of Double Gloucester cheese and then run after it. The first person over the finish line without injuries wins the cheese. The cheese can reach a speed of 112 km/h. Injuries are common. Luckily, doctors are waiting just beyond the finish line.The mud festival held every year at Boryeong in South Korea is a bit dirty as it sounds. However, for lovers of mud-wrestling, this is the festival that is not to be missed.There are many other odd festivals around the world. I’d like to introduce you some more next time.35. Grown men dressed as the devil jump over babies in order to .A. celebrate the birth of new livesB. teach babies to become braveC. celebrate new babies’ first birthdayD. protect babies against illness and evil spirits36. What can we learn about the festival mentioned in Paragraph 4?A. Participants are very likely to get injured.B. It is a festival mainly held for doctors in Britain.C. Those who find the heaviest cheese win the game.D. A participant has to reach a speed of 112 km/h in order to win.37. Which of the following pictures shows the festival that is held in South Korea?A. B. C. D.38. The writer wrote this passage mainly to .A. tell us the history of several strange festivalsB. introduce several strange festivals around the worldC. show that people like doing strange things in their free timeD. tell us what festivals to avoid when we travel abroadCIf your high school doesn’t have a newspaper, you can help start one online. If your high school already has a printed newspaper, adding an online version can help you reach new audiences and add new content. It’s also cheaper to show than a printed version. A digital newspaper can be a chance for high school students to gain experience with journalism and with working online.Discuss with other student journalists to decide what kind of online newspaper you want. If your news site will only have an article or two a day, you may want to use a blog template (模板). If you plan to publish a more magazine-style weekly edition with more stories, you will probably want a more complicated front page to show what’s in each issue. Your website will also need to support any additional features such as slide shows (幻灯片放映) and polls.After you have decided what you want your newspaper to look like, try to collectsome money. Although it’s possible to launch a website for free, even $50 will help your newspaper buy a memorable website address. These expenses can be made back later through online advertising.Create content for your newspaper. Along with written articles, an online newspaper is a great place for multimedia and interactive content such as photo slide shows, videos, polls, forums and calendars. Use a mix of content and a variety of voices to encourage more page views.Market your newspaper. You can promote it through old-fashioned announcements such as flyers (宣传单) and word of mouth, but it might be better to advertise through e-mails or messages and posts on social networking sites such as Facebook, Myspace and Twitter.39. You can use a blog template if .A. you want to have an interaction with othersB. you want to receive comments from readersC. you have just a few articles a dayD. you have many articles a day40. What can we infer from the third paragraph?A. I t’s possible to attract advertising to online newspapers.B. You can use a memorable website address for free.C. It takes only $50 to start an online newspaper.D. Advertising is free in online newspapers.41. What’s the purpose of using a mix of content and a variety of voices?A. To get more useful advice.B. To collect more money.C. To attract more authors.D. To attract more viewers.42. Why does the author suggest using Facebook, Myspace and Twitter?A. To make your newspapers more popular.B. To make more friends through them.C. To borrow some articles from them.D. To learn from them.DBy far the most important factor is how much time you are immersed in the language. The more time you spend with the language, the faster you will learn. This means listening, reading, writing, speaking, and studying words and phrases. This does not mean sitting in class looking out of the window, nor listening to other students who do not speak well. This means spending time enjoyably connecting to the language you are learning.Listen wherever you are on your MP3 player. Read what you are listening to. Listen to and read things that you like, things that you can mostly understand, or even partly understand. If you keep listening and reading, you will get used to the language. One hour of listening or reading is more effective than many hours of class time.Build up your vocabulary; you’ll need lots. Start to notice words and how they come together as phrases. Learn these words and phrases through your listening and reading. Read online, use online dictionaries, and make your own vocabulary lists for review. Gradually you will be able to use them. Do not worry about how accurately you speak until you have accumulated (积累) plenty of words through listening and reading.Choose content of interest that you want to listen to and read. Seek out the words and phrases that you need to understand. Do not wait for someone else to show you the language, nor to tell you what to do. Discover the language by yourself, like a child growing up. Talk when you feel like it. Write when you feel like it. A teacher cannot teach you to become fluent, but you can learn to become fluent if you want to.Do not worry about what you cannot remember, or cannot yet understand, or cannot yet say. It does not matter. You are learning and improving. The language will gradually become clearer in your brain. So sit back and enjoy. Just make sure you spend enough time with the language. That is the greatest guarantee of success.43. What should we do to learn a foreign language well?A. Listen to other students whether they speak well or not.B. Speak a language accurately from the very beginning.C. Discover a language by yourself, like a child growing up.D. Ask your parents or a teacher to tell you what to do.44. Where should we listen to a language?A. In the classroom.B. Wherever we are.C. On the Internet.D. In the street.45. The text is mainly intended for .A. parentsB. teachersC. language learnersD. school leaders46. What’s the best title of the passage?A. The importance of learning a foreign languageB. How to learn a foreign languageC. Why to learn a foreign languageD. When to learn a foreign languageEAlex Scott, a brave young girl with a strong mind, wanted to make a difference for all children who have cancer with her lemonade stands and left a legacy (遗赠) of hope. This reminds us of the power one person can have by taking a stand for a worthy cause.Alex was born to Jay and Liz Scott from Manchester, CT. Before her first birthday she was diagnosed (诊断) with neuroblastoma, a childhood cancer. This type of cancer affects the nervous system. Jay and Liz were told by doctors that if Alex beat the cancer she wo uld most likely never walk again. Challenging the doctors’ prediction, Alex was crawling (爬) by her second birthday and able to stand up. She continued to gain strength and to learn how to walk. This was just the start of her unstoppable spirit.Within the next year, Alex’s tumors (肿瘤) started to grow again, and, in the year 2000, a day after her fourth birthday, she received a stem cell transplant (移植). She informed her mother that when she left the hospital shewould have a lemonade stand to help doctors find a cure for childhood cancer.True to her words, Alex had her first lemonade stand later that year. She raised $2,000 for her hospital, a remarkable achievement. Alex continued to hold lemonade stands annually in her front yard, while battling cancer. When the news spread of this extraordinary young girl’s helping other sick children, people all over the world became inspired to hold their own stands and donated the income to Alex’s Lemonade Stand Foundation.When Alex passed away in August 2004, at the age of 8, she had raised over $1million for childhood cancer research with the help of others. Liz and Jay, along with their three sons, Patrick, Eddie and Joey, continue the promise to Alex and all children with cancer, the promise of hope for a cure.Si nce 2004, because of Alex’s giving nature, adults and children have joined in the fight for a cure hosting over 8,000 Alex’s Lemonade Stands across the country. These stands represent different groups of devoted volunteers from large and small businesses, inner city school children, senior centers, pre-school aged children, middle school students, college students, and a group of homeless people.The lesson, according to the website of Alex’s Lemonade Stand Foundation, that everyone learns from holding their own lemonade stands is simple but powerful — every person can make a difference in the world.In the spirit of Martin Luther King’s famous quote, “Everybody can be great, because anybody can serve. You don’t have to have a college degree to serve. You do n’t have to make your subject and verb agree to serve … You only need a heart full of grace, a soul generated by love.”Alex’s Lemonade Stand Foundation shares the vision of its founder and creator, Alexandra “Alex” Scott — a cure for all children with cancer. You can hold your own Alex’s Lemonade Stand to help raise funds for childhood cancer research. This is a great way to teach children about the virtue (美德) of service in a fun, easy and inexpensive way. For more information, contact Alex’s Lemonade Sta nd Foundation.47. When Alex decided to hold a lemonade stand, she wanted to .A. battle cancer in a special wayB. raise money for her future treatmentC. raise money for childhood cancer researchD. spread news of an extraordinary girl48. Before Alex’s death, her family had promised that they would .A. join the cancer research groupB. look after other sick children in hospitalC. donate more to Alex’s Lemonade Stand FoundationD. continue her hope for a cure of childhood cancer49. What can we learn from Alex’s story?A. Everyone can make a difference.B. Many hands make light work.C. Each of us could have a lemonade stand.D. The good are all rewarded.50. What is the best title of this passage?A. Alex’s Battling Again st Childhood CancerB.How to Cure Childhood CancerC. Alex’s Lemonade Stand FoundationD.

Unit 4 Making the news(时间：120分钟满分：150分本卷共4页)Ⅰ.听力(共两节，满分30分)Ⅱ.阅读理解(共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分)ANewspapers are not nearly as popular today as they were in the past. There are not very many people who seriously read a newspaper every day. Most people only read the sports pages，the advice or the gossip columns, the comics, and perhaps the classified advertisements. Most people don't take time to read real news. They attempt to catch the reader's interest with pictures and exciting headlines. These techniques are used on the front page because it is the first thing you see when you pick up the paper. The first page attracts attention and encourages the reader to look through the rest of the paper. This is why editors always look for a good first page story and a headline to make them stop and look. If the headline is horrible enough or frightening enough or wild enough, perhaps they will go on to read the front page anymore. They may read the headlines, but that is all, then they turn to the sports page, or comics, or advertisements.It seems that people do not want the news from a newspaper anymore. They say they get the news on television now. More people watch television news because it is easier and more interesting than reading a newspaper. What about you? Do you read news from a newspaper? Do you think it is easier to get news from television? Or do you care about news at all? Would you mind if there were no news?21．According to the passage, newspapers are ________.A．more popular todayB．less popular todayC．as popular as beforeD．getting more and more popular22．We can know from the passage that newspaper editors think the important part of a newspaper is________.A．the front page B．the sports pageC．the headlines D．the classified advertisements23．According to the author，which of the following newspapers will most probably attract the reader's attention?A．The ones with interesting pictures and exciting headlines on the front page.B．The ones with sports news on the front page.C．The ones with classified ads on the front page.D．The ones with gossip columns on the front page.24．The author's attitude toward newspapers is ________.A．sympathetic B．criticalC．negative D．undeterminedBday. He was the first student on in the morning, as we were farthest from school, and the last student off in the evening. I was a teacher myself and it was a comfort to realize the school staff (职员) were all working as hard as I was to provide a safe learning environment.One day I came home from work and waited for my son to get home for a long time. Then I called the school. “Perhaps he's just a bit late，” said the secretary. “I will call the driver to see if those children are home.” A few minutes later, I answered the phone to hear that the other students were home. Then I called his friends' parents, to see if perhaps he had gotten off at their stop to play. The answers were all “No”．By that time, it was dark and I was scared. My home was in the mountain areas, and it was said that a wolf had come up somewhere. My husband wasn't at home, so I forced myself to calm down and decided to go out to look for him. I was about to go out when the telephone rang; it was from the driver. “He's okay，” I heard. “H e was asleep on the seats in the back, under a couple ofjackets. Since it's dark, can he spend the night with my family？”I was relieved and agreed. Since my son had a great adventure, the school started giving a copy of the list to the driver, so he could check off the children's names when they got off the bus. I think highly of the school for taking the cautionary (警戒的) step ahead; it is a sign of their concern for students, parents, and staff.25．From Paragraph 1 we learn that ________.A．the author's son went home by bus every afternoonB．the author's son came to school earlier than other studentsC．the author's home was farther than that of any other studentD．the author was a teacher in her son's primary school26．At first the secretary thought ________.A．the author's son was still at schoolB．the author's son was at his friend's homeC．the school bus would arrive in a whileD．there might be something wrong with the school bus27．The author's son probably spent the night ________.A．in the bus B．at his own homeC．at the driver's home D．in the secretary's office28．The author wrote the text to ________.A．praise the school for its quick actionB．thank the bus driver for his kindnessC．complain about the secretary of the schoolD．show her concern for kids safetyCPresident Obama ranks 15th out of 44 in a poll (投票) of the best and worst Presidents while former President George W. Bush earns a place in the bottom five, according to the Siena College Research Institute's recent survey released Thursday.Obama won a top ten place in two skill set categories (范畴), communication ability (7th) and ability to compromise (用折中的方法解决争端) (10th), and in twopersonality trait categories, imagination (6th) and intelligence (8th). Background, described as family, education, and experience, proved his lowest score at 32nd.This is the 5th time the institute has carried out the survey of US Presidents, which is done a year after a new President takes office (上任). The first survey was done in 1982. “Obviously, there's not great validity to the poll since the Presidents have only been in office for one year，statistician Douglas Lonnstrom. “But it's a standard for us to see how they move.”Presidents always rank around 20th while they are in office, and Obama is no exception. His actions over the next few years will decide if he stays roughly the same like Ronald Reagan — who moved from 16th to 20th, 22nd, 16th again, and finally to 18th this year — or like Bush, who fell from 23rd to 39th.Franklin D. Roosevelt has held his title as top President since 1982 with the same four following as top five: Theodore Roosevelt, Abraham Lincoln, George Washington, and Thomas Jefferson.The survey, which ranks Presidents using 20 different factors, shows Jefferson was the most intelligent President, Richard Nixon was the worst at honesty and avoiding serious mistakes, Lincoln had the best overall ability, and Washington was the best leader.29.In which category did Obama win his best place?A．Imagination. B．Intelligence.C．Background. D．Communication ability.30．Which of the following words can best replace the underlined word “validity”？A．Lightness. B．Curiosity.C．Correctness. D．Purpose.31．Which of the following shows the right order about the ranking?a．Obama B．George W．Bushc．Ronald Reagan D．Abraham LincolnA．c, d, a, b B．d, a, c, bC．d, c, b, a D．c, a, d, b32．Which of the following statements is TRUE?A．Thomas Jefferson is not among the top five Presidents on the list.B．George Washington is thought of as the most intelligent President.C．Richard Nixon has always been among the bottom five Presidents.D．Franklin D. Roosevelt has always been regarded as the top President.DSuper Typhoon Megi crashed into the Philippines on Monday, leaving a trail of destruction in its path. Thousands of residents fled to safety as heavy rains and strong winds caused flooding, collapsed trees and cut off power. It was the strongest storm to hit the island nation in 4 years.“At least 7 pe ople died in the storm, and at least 6 others were injured by falling trees, broken rooftops and glass，” officials said. “More than 4,150 residents were forced to take shelter in schools, town halls, churches and relatives' homes.”A typhoon is a tropical cyclone (热带气旋), or hurricane, that occurs in the western Pacific or Indian Ocean. The storm is named “super typhoon” when winds exceed 150 mph. Megi crashed ashore in the Isabela province of the northern Philippines with whipping winds that reached 162 mph. The storm created big waves in Palanan Bay. All ships and fishing boats were advised to stay in ports. Several airline flights were cancelled.“Luckily, the winds blew high from the ground, sparing many rice fields from damage，” says Alvaro Antonio, the governor of Cagayan province.“The region also took a hard hit from the storm.”Thousands of military reserve officers and volunteers stood by to help with relief efforts. Evacuations (疏散) and emergency preparations for the storm were made days in advance. Retired army Major General Benito Ramos heads thewas like preparing for war.33．Which of the following descriptions about typhoon is right?A．It is a tropical cyclone occurs in the eastern Pacific Ocean.B．It is a hurricane occurs in the Atlantic Ocean.C．When winds exceed 100 mph, the storm is named a “super typhoon”．D．It can bring a great destruction.34．What does the underlined word in the 4th paragraph mean?A．避免B．放开C．带走D．保护35．What can we infer from the Major General's words?A．The preparing work is all done by soldiers.B．The preparing work is a hard and responsible task.C．The army should get into the relief efforts.D．They did the same thing with soldiers.Ⅲ.任务型阅读(共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分)I am on holiday here in Switzerland with my parents and I am having a fantastic time. ___36__It is the first time I have ever been to the mountains and I love it. ___37__ My father isn't very happy though.

Although few people now need metal products handmade by a blacksmith, Tian, who has worked in the industry for over 40 years, still sticks to his old (occupy).Ⅱ. 阅读理解When people find out that I am a journalist, they often ask me: What do you think about the future of newspapers?I tell them that I think the future of communications is moving online. People expect me to be fearful for the future of print. After all, in some people´s minds I wouldn´t be able to build a career in journalism if it all moves online. However, strangely enough, I´m actually comforted by the fact that online journalism is becoming usual. I am a blogger who has always been able to find a home for my writing online.Since I began writing blogs, I have become aware of how many people you can reach with online writing. Compare this to the newspapers circulation base, and you will have a strong reason for online journalism.In her successful blog post titled “The job I have spent the last year learning is not the one I will have”, author Jenny Surane states,“Pri nt is an expensive product to love. And general managers, publishers and editors must now figure out a profitable way to get their news into readers´heads.” She goes on to state that people don´t feel like picking up a newspaper now and would rather scroll(滚屏) through their Twitter feed, and get news from many different sources.If print is dying, then a new form of communicating information is being born. The need for information has not died. If anything, it has increased. What has died, rather, is the way in which information is presented.Now more than ever, in this age of information, there is a desire for stories on the same topic from different points of view. The printing industry can keep pace with the need of providing a variety of sources, if it chooses to.Is the future of print grim? Maybe. But is the future of journalism of communicating information to people, grim as well? Definitely not.1. According to Paragraph 2, the author feels .A.confident about the future of his careerB.worried about the future of printC.tired of being a newspaper journalistD.embarrassed about online writing2. What information is conveyed in Jenny´s blog post?A.Twitter is not very popular.B.It is hard to manage online journalism.C.Print still has its own advantages.D.People have more options to get information.3. What does the underlined word “grim” in the last paragraph probably mean?A.Promising.B.Depressing.C.Unforgiving.D.Encouraging.4. What is the author´s purpose in writing the text?A.To explore the future of journalism.B.To analyse the cause of print decline.C.To explain the bright future of a journalist.D.To introduce a successful blog post about print.Ⅲ. 完形填空One academically excellent young person went to apply for a position in an international company.

A pupil who prefers not to spend any money can go for______. A. the cruise B. the guitar lessonsC. story timeD. the school choir2. Who will conduct the guitar lessons? A. The band instructor. B. The choir mistress.C. Mr. Stephen Keene.D. An invited guest.3. To go for the cruise, pupils need to ______. A. be Geography Club members B. pay $30C. know how to swimD. have some forms filledBFor some kids, old photos and baby pictures are embarrassing. For others, they are cherished keepsakes(纪念品). But for thousands of children living in orphanages(孤儿院)worldwide, these records of the past simply don ’t exist. Either the kids ’ parents weren ’t around to snap photos, or the pictures have been lost. Whatever the reason is, the Memory Project is giving orphans a lasting document of their youth.Over the last two years, the Memory Project has provided hand-painted portraits (肖像)for more than 4, 000children living in orphanages in poor countries. Ben Schumaker, 24, got the idea when he was visiting an orphanage in Guatemala in Central America. But he’s not creating the portraits alone. Students in hundreds of high school art classes across the U. S. paint them using photos sent from the orphanages.Schumaker believes that the artists benefit from the project as much as the orphans do. "There are twopurposes of the Memory Project, "he said. "One is to offer a special gift to the child abroad. The other is to help open the eyes of the student who is painting. "Staring into the eyes of another person, Schumaker believes, creates a real connection. This connection raises awareness in U. S. schools about the needs of the world’s poor children. "It’s a bout planting a seed, "he said.Schumaker is also working on Books of Hope, a project in which students of all ages put together homemadebooks for children in Uganda and India. He hopes that one day children in Uganda and India will send books to the U. S. "It’s important for me to have it be a two -way exchange, "Schmnaker says. 4. Old photos and baby pictures are clearly unavailable to . A. the kids in rich familiesB. the kids in common familiesC. the kids without parentsD. the kids in expanded families5. What does the underlined word "document" in the first paragraph most probably mean?A. moneyB. recordC. appealD. doubt6. How can the orphans in Guatemala get a continuing record of their youth?英语试题第3页（共8页）英语试题第4页（共8页）A. By hand-painted portraits that Ben Schumaker painted.B. By the Memory Project started by Ben Schumaker.C. By the photos taken by the U. S. students in high schools.D. By the photos the orphanage takes for them.7. What does the third paragraph mainly tell us?A. The special gifts that the world’s poor children received.B. The need of the US schools.C. The advantages that the Memory Project brings.D. How to help the orphans.CArtificial intelligence keeps defeating human, it is making countless victories against human in different fields of life and trying to push human to the corner.Google’s DeepMind has defeated the world’s number one player Ke Jie. Human brain somehow has been replaced by a machine and scientists are working very hard on developing a human brain by implanting a chip and connecting it to the thick neuron that connects the two hemispheres of the brain. Well, who doesn’t want to get his brain upgraded to be as smart as the brain of Albert Einstein or Charles Darwin?Humans will probably one day invent a brain that can be implanted in the human skull and reprogram all the human thoughts, but his invention doesn’t seems to be happening in the foreseeable future since human brain took millions of years to evolve. Some scientists believe that human will defeat death in the next twenty hundred years but they can’t really predict how long it’s going to take to develop a human brain that can completely replace the natural brain.Despite of this accomplishment in the field of artificial intellige nce, it couldn’t crease people from believing that science can’t stand alone. For instance, AI can imitate human brain and most of the time outperforms it, but there are still a lot of hidden secrets. AI outsmarted Ke Jie , but Ke Jie has consciousness unlike the AI, Ke Jie felt sad when he was defeated and buried his face in his hands but the AI didn’t feel happy and celebrate his victory.The computer of 1960 is the same as the computer of 2017 in terms of consciousness, there is no signs so far telling us that there is an algorithm(运算)that can make a conscious computer and decipher (译解)its feelings. We can predict what the future will look like according to the past, especially from scientific point of view but the development of human brain seems unpredictable and unknown.8. What is the possible meaning of the underlined word “neuron” in Para. 2?A. The tube through which blood flows in your brain.B. The kind of cell that carries information.C. The soft fatty substance in the hollow center of bones.D. T he bony part of one’s head which encloses his/her brain.9. What is Paragraph 3 mainly about?A. It took millions of years for human brain to evolve.B. Humans wish to get their brains upgraded to be as smart as possible.C. Humans will probably invent a brain that can reprogram all the human thoughts.D. It is hard to develop a human brain that can completely replace the natural brain.10. “Ke Jie felt sad when he was defeated” is mentioned in Para. 4 to ______ .A. show that the AI has no human emotionsB. explain that AlphaGo is virtually unbeatable in the board gameC. tell us the accomplishment in the field of artificial intelligenceD. analyze Ke Jie’s psychological characteristics when playing the game11. What can be the best title for the passage?A. World Top Go Player Ke Jie Challenges AlphaGo.B. AlphaGo Teaches To use AI To benefit Humans.C. Google AI Defeats Human Go Champion.D. AI Can Imitate Human Brain And Most Of the Time Outperforms It.DIn modern society there is a great deal of argument about competition. Some value it highly, believing that it is responsible for social progress and prosperity (繁荣). Others say that competition is bad; that it sets one person against another; that it leads to unfriendly relationship between people.I have taught many children who held the belief that their self-worth relied on how well they performed at tennis and other skills. For them, playing well and winning are often life-and-death affairs. In their single-minded pursuit(追求)of success, the development of many other human qualities is sadly forgotten.However, while some seem to be lost in the desire to succeed, others take an opposite attitude. In a culture which only values the winner and pays no attention to the ordinary players, they strongly blame competition. Among those who are against competition are young people who have suffered under competitive pressures from their parents or society. Teaching these young people, I often observe in them a desire to fail. They seem to seek failure by not trying to win or achieve success. By not trying, they always have an excuse: “I may have lost, but it doesn’t matter because I really didn’t try.” What is not usually admitted by them is the belief that if they had really tried and lost, that would mean a lot.Such a loss would be a measure of their worth. Clearly, this belief is the same as that of true competitors who try to prove themselves. Both are based on the mistaken belief that one’s self-respect relies on how well one performs in comparison with others. Both are afraid of not being valued. Only as this basic and often troublesome fear begins to disappear can we discover a new meaning in competition.12. What is the best title of this passage?英语试题 第5页（共8页） 英语试题 第6页（共8页）A. Competition! Why Friends Turn into EnemiesB. Competition! What Self-respect Depends onC. New Meaning Found in CompetitionD. Two Mistaken Beliefs about Competition13. Why do some young people suffering from competitive pressures seek failure? A. Because they are aware that they will not succeed in competition. B. Because they don’t think it worthwhile to compete with others. C. Because they are afraid that they would not be valued if they lost.D. Because they are fed up with the great efforts needed to compete with others.14. Which of the following will the author probably agree with? A. One should treat competition as a life-and-death affair. B. One should make every effort to avoid competition. C. One should get rid of the fear of failure in competition.D. One should be given rewards after competing with others.15. The true competitors and those with a desire to fail both believe ________. A. one’s self -worth comes from how well he performs in comparison with others B. one’s dream can be achieved if he has mastered good communication skills C. one’s failure happens when he is suffering from emotional problemsD. one’s success is based on how hard he has tried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。

AHere are 4 extreme sports which are popular in the west countries among the young.Volcano BoardingRacing down an active 2,380 ft volcano at speeds 50 mph with only a board for protection is considered by many thrill-seeking sports fans as the coolest.Thousands of travelers head to the foothills of Nicaragua's Cerro Negro Mountain every year to take part in the new sport. Surfers，dressed in protective jump suits，knee-pads and helmets，can reach speeds of up to 80 km/h on their special boards. Since its creation，in 2005，the volcano boarding has attracted more than 10,000 participants.Cliff DivingCliff diving is defined as the perfection of diving into water from a high cliff. From the rough rocks，divers take a jump into the water beneath.This dangerous sport originated from the Hawaiian Island of Lanai in 1770，Kahekili，the king，demanded that his men leap off high cliffs and enter the water to prove their courage and loyalty. Today，after centuries，the activity has expanded into a sport.SlackliningA balance sport，slacklining uses nylon ropes (尼龙绳) stretched tight between two fixed points. It is different from tightrope walking-it is like a large rubber band. The line's tension can be adjusted to suit the performer and different types of movement.Christian Schou holds the Guinness World Record title the highest slackline at 3,280 feet(1000 meter)－3 Eiffel towers high.Zorbing BallEffectively throwing yourself down a slope in a giant ball，or “zorbing”，is one of the latest extreme sport. This bizarre sport，invented in 2000，involves a giant plastic ball，which has two skins，one inside the other. The person zorbing is in the area between the skins. Then others will roll the ball down a hill.1.Why does Nicaragua's Cerro Negro Mountain attract many tourists every year？A.Because it has beautiful scenery.B.Because it is a perfect place for mountain climbing.C.Because people can appreciate the sudden eruption of the volcano.D.Because it is an active volcano for volcano boarding.2.Which sport can you experience when you visit Hawaii？A.Zorbing ballB.SlackliningC.Cliff divingD.V olcano boarding3.What is most needed during the performance of slacklining？A.A good tightrope.B.A sense of balance.C.A large rubber band.D.A sense of direction.【答案】【解题导语】本文是一篇广告。
