Ⅰ.阅读理解(建议用时16′)
A
The other day, I noticed a message on a friend's page. It made me very sad. She says she is the one who reaches out to people, but rarely do they reach out P1 to her. So, after communicating with her for a while, I began to challenge W1my friends. “Contact W2 someone right now. Send messages or call someone who you haven't spoken to for a while, or who you only talk to when they message or call you. Let someone who may feel alone in the world right this moment know that they are not alone. That is my challenge to you. Please do it, and let me know once you have. Either by calling me back, or by sending me a message. Be the change that you want to see in the world.”
The response W3 was great. 28 people liked my post, and another 10 posted that they did, and I got about a dozen messages telling me that they did. And there was one very special message.
“I just want you to know what has happened. That day, I sent a message to a friend who I hadn't heard from for a while. She and I talked for a whole day back and forth P2 on messages and then on the phone. She said she was so incredibly W4 sad. Nobody has spoken with her in two weeks. By the tone of her voice, and by the conversations we were having, I think she was about to take her own life(自杀). After our conversation, she has agreed to talk to someone. Your message of kindness has saved her. I can't wait to tell you how thankful I am for people like you in the world, who care when nobody else will. I am proud to call myself your friend. Thank you！”
I didn't quite know what to say after reading the message. I was wondering how best to use it for greater good. I decided that sharing what we have done is the most powerful way. I know that I am a cheerleader W5 when it comes to making the world a better place with kindness, because if I help someone, it makes me feel better. I do it because I need to feel better.

Square dancing is a form of entertainment and physical exercise,
which is a good thing. However, a group of senior Chinese ladies dancing in New York's Sunset Park were recently faced with P1 noise complaints from nearby residents. The local court even served a summons (传票) related to a certain Ms Wang.
The news soon caused heated discussion across China, with many believing the incident W1 to involve a cultural conflict between the East and West, while others view it as a form of discrimination against Chinese in the United States.
The United States is a diverse society, and in many cases, Chinese dancers are tolerated W2 and even appreciated. Meanwhile, the United States is a society based on the rule of law, and due to P2 cultural differences, local regulations seem to be very different from those in China. As a result, some old Chinese ladies dancing in New York's Sunset Park found themselves caught in an embarrassing W3 situation. Locals and immigrants from other nations view such noise as a violation of their right to enjoy tranquility. Calling the police is regarded as the most efficient way to solve such a problem.
Before, these ladies probably did not understand local customs and rules. However, since the incident took place, they should perhaps know a little better next time and keep the noise to a minimum. People from different nations are often supposed to reach compromises W4， respecting and tolerating each other.
Whatever your choice of entertainment, it is important not to affect other people's lives. Square dancing is only one of many activities during which people should mind their behavior.
As for US police practice, there might still be some room for improvement. Some were said to be rather rude, leading to the so­called “racial discrimination”， which is a sensitive W5 topic in US society.
If the involved parties could be more tolerant, and solve such problems without involving the court, perhaps immigrants would mix more.

[2016·北京高考]
The Science of Risk­Seeking
Sometimes we decide that a little unnecessary danger is worth it because when we weigh the risk and the reward, the risk seems worth taking. __1__ Some of us enjoy activities that would surprise and scare the rest of us. Why? Experts say it may have to do with how our brains work.
The reason why any of us take any risks at all might have to do with early humans. Risk­takers were better at hunting, fighting, or exploring. __2__ As t he quality of risk­taking was passed from one generation to the next, humans ended up with a sense of adventure and a tolerance for risk.
So why aren't we all jumping out of airplanes then? Well, even 200,000 years ago, too much risk­taking could get one k illed. A few daring survived, though, along with a few stay­in­the­cave types. As a result, humans developed a range of character types that still exists today. So maybe you love car racing, or maybe you hate it. __3__
No matter where you are on the risk­s eeking range, scientists say that your willingness to take risks increases during your teenage years. __4__ To help you do that, your brain increases your hunger for new experiences. New experiences often mean taking some risks, so your brain raises your tolerance for risk as well.
__5__ For the risk­seekers, a part of the brain related to pleasure becomes active, while for the rest of us, a part of the brain related to fear becomes active.
As experts continue to study the science of risk­seeking, we'll continue to hit the mountains, the waves or the shallow end of the pool.
A．It all depends on your character.
B．Those are the risks you should jump to take.
C．Being better at those things meant a greater chance of survival.
D．Thus, these well­equipped people s urvived because they were the fittest.
E．This is when you start to move away from your family and into the bigger world.
F．However, we are not all using the same reference standard to weigh risks and rewards.
G．New brain research suggests our brains work differently when we face a nervous situation.
篇章导读：本文是一篇科普说明文。

早期人类为了生存，需要冒险精神。

这样人类喜欢冒险的精神就延续了下来，然而有一部分人不喜欢冒险。

专家说这可能与我们大脑活动有关。

1．F 上句提到值得冒险，而下句说有一些活动让一些人感到享受，却让另一些人害怕，故此处是说衡量风险和回报的不同。

故选F项。

2．C 上句提到冒险者更擅长捕猎等。

C项中的“Being better at”是上句中的“were better at...”的复现。

故选C项。

3．A 由本段可知，人类形成了各种各样的性格类型。

你可能喜欢某项冒险活动或者不喜欢。

这都是取决于你的性格特点。

最后一句总结本段得出主旨。

4．E 上句提到：对冒险活动的热爱在青少年时期有所增长。

设空处应该是对青少年时期性格特点的说明。

故选E项。

5．G 由下句中的“a part of the brain”可知选G，对下文进行总结。

Ⅲ.语法填空(建议用时8′)
阅读下面短文，在空白处填入适当的内容(1个单词)或括号内单词的正确形式。

As I was making my way to the coffee shop, I noticed an old man __1__ was poorly dressed sitting on a bench nearby. I knew from first sight that he was in need of some kind of help. He had a little lunch stretched out in front of him and was wholeheartedly enjoying it.
Then I joined the line and waited __2__ (serve). There was a young man in front of me. He handed the waitress a twenty­dollar bill and requested a glass of orange juice as well __3__ a favour. The __4__ (puzzle) waitress looked at the young man, not __5__ (complete) understanding the request.
The young man asked her to give the juice and the change to __6__ old man eating his lunch outside on the bench. The waitress said she __7__ (give) them to the old man as he had told her to. Afterwards, there was a wonderful exchange between the waitress and the old man in need of some attention. I only wish I had a photo __8__ (take) to record the smiles on both of their faces.
As I was thinking about this event later on, I wondered __9__ the young man didn't just perform this act of kindness __10__ (he). I suspect that it is because in his heart he hoped that this act of kindness might inspire others to do something for this old man, too.

5．________ 6.________ 7.________ 8.________
9．________ 10.________
篇章导读：本文讲述的是作者在一间咖啡店的经历，及自己对传递善举的思考。

1．who/that 考查定语从句。

从句中缺少主语，且先行词指人，故填who/that。

wait后应跟不定式作宾语，且serve 与I之间为被动关系。

3．as 考查介词。

as well as “除……之外还……”。

定冠词与名词中间填形容词，且表示女服务员当时深感迷惑，故填puzzled。

此处为“have＋宾语＋宾补”结构，且photo 与take之间为被动关系，故填taken。

9．why 考查宾语从句。

从句中不缺主语和宾语，但缺少语义，故结合语义可知填why。

10．himself 考查代词。

句意：我想知道为什么这个年轻人不亲自做这件善事。

由句意可知，此处填反身代词himself。

Ⅳ.书面表达(建议用时20′)
最近，部分学校开设了一些特色课(special classes)，诸如烹饪课、传统戏曲课等。

针对这一现象，你们班同学进行了讨论。

请根据下表写一篇100个词左右的英语短文。

[范文]
Recently some schools offer their students some special classes, such as cooking classes, traditional opera classes and so on. Is it necessary to offer these classes? We had a discussion in our class. Opinions vary.
Some students think it really necessary to do it. First, it's good for students to develop their interests. What's more, these classes are helpful for them to improve their life skills which are useful for young students.
However, others have different opinions. They hold the idea that it's a waste of time and it's not helpful for their lessons.
In my opinion, it's a good idea to offer these classes. That's because they are not only good for our study but also for our growth.。
