AOne afternoon last week, I saw three tearful children from my son's school being comforted by teachers. That morning, my 11-year-old had stomach pains, retching (干呕) into a bowl. Talking to other mothers later, I heard about other children with stomachache or difficulty sleeping the night before.What caused so much pain? Sports day. Sports day might be necessary at a highly competitive independent school, but not at a village primary school. For the children who can fly like the wind, sports day causes no problem. For those who are overweight or just not good at sport, it is a nightmare (噩梦). Even for those who enjoy running but fall halfway down the track in front of the entire school and their parents，it can prove a disaster.Why do we put our children through this annual suffering? Some may say competition is character building；or it's taking part, not winning, that's important；or that it is a tradition of school life. I just felt great pity for those children in tears or in pain.Team games at the end of sports day produced some close races, wild enthusiasm, lots of shouting—and were fun to watch. More importantly, the children who were not so fast or quick at passing the ball were hidden a little from everyone's eyes. Some of them also had the thrill of being on the winning side.I wish that sports day could be abandoned and replaced with some other less competitive event. Perhaps an afternoon of team games, with a few races for those who want them, would be less stressful for the children and a lot more fun to watch.21．What can we learn about the author's son from Paragraph 1?A．He talked with some mothers. B．He comforted his classmates.C．He had difficulty in sleeping. D．He suffered from stomachache.22．Sports day is still an annual event in this school probably because __________.A．this is an independent school B．it is a tradition of the schoolC．it helps children lose weight D．children enjoy watching sports23．What does the author think about team games?A．They should include more stressful races.B．They are acceptable to different children.C．They should be abandoned at primary schools.D．They are less fun for those who love running.24．What is the author's attitude towards sports day?A．Critical. B．Neutral.C．Positive. D．Ambiguous.BMOOCs, short f or “massive open online courses，” mark an important, possibly revolutionary, development in education. These courses are on line, free of charge, and open to anyone in the world who has a laptop and an Internet connection. Moreover, they are mainly offered by great universities like Stanford, Berkeley, Harvard and Columbia.The courses are arranged according to how difficult they are, enabling students to progress from beginners to the advanced. The courses cover not only a broad range of science subjects such as math and computer science, but also courses in social sciences and humanities. Though MOOCs are not offered for credit and degree, many students enroll(加入) in the courses for real skills or knowledge which they can put to some practical use.The format(形式) seems better than the traditional school class. The average quality of the lecturers is much higher. Besides, students can learn back and forward—that is, they can go at their own learning speed, which they can't do in a live lecture. And, more importantly, they don't have to travel anywhere to attend an online lecture. There is a problem of asking questions of the lecturer in a class of ten thousand students, but some MOOCs have solved it by allowing students to post questions on line for a vote, and only the most popular questions are put to the lecturer.In a knowledge age, lifelong learning is not confined to a traditional classroom. Students taking MOOCS are usually very clever, have work experience, and in many cases, have already developed a set of practical skills. Moreover, they also offer unique international perspectives(远景) that would be the envy of any school classroom.25．Which of the following statements is NOT true about MOOCs?A．The word “MOOCs” is short for “massive open online campuses”．B．Anyone who has a computer and an Internet connection can take MOOCs.C．MOOCs are usually offered by first-class universities in the world.D．MOOCs may be a breakthrough in the development of education.26．MOOCs seem to have an advantage over traditional school classes in that ________.A．there is a problem of asking questions in traditional classesB．students enrolling in MOOCs can get credit and degree easilyC．students can learn at their own study paceD．students can travel to many places when taking MOOCs27．The meaning of the underlined word “confined” means ________.A．extended B．developedC．limited D．advancedCPassenger pigeons (旅鸽)once flew over much of the United States in unbelievable numbers. Written accounts from the 18th and 19th centuries described flocks (群)so large that they darkened the sky for hours.It was calculated that when its population reached its highest point, there were more than 3 billion passenger pigeons—a number equal to 24 to 40 percent of the total bird population in the United States, making it perhaps the most abundant bird in the world. Even as late as 1870 when their numbers had already become smaller, a flock believed to be 1 mile wide and 320 miles (about 515 kilometers) long was seen near Cincinnati.Sadly the abundance of passenger pigeons may have been their undoing. Where the birds were most abundant, people believed there was an everlasting supply and killed them by the thousands. Commercial hunters attracted them to small clearings with grain, waited until pigeons had settled to feed, then threw large nets over them, taking hundreds at a time. The birds were shipped to large cities and sold in restaurants.By the closing decades of the 19th century，the hardwood forests where passenger pigeons nested had been damaged by Americans' need for wood, which scattered (驱散) the flocks and forced the birds to go farther north, where cold temperatures and spring storms contributed to their decline. Soon the great flocks were gone, never to be seen again.In 1897, the state of Michigan passed a law prohibiting the killing of passenger pigeons, but by then, no sizable flocks had been seen in the state for 10 years. The last confirmed wild pigeon in the United States was shot by a boy in Pike County, Ohio, in 1900. For a time, a few birds survived under human care. The last of them, known affectionately as Martha, died at the Cincinnati Zoological Garden on September 1, 1914.28. In the 18th and early 19th centuries, passenger pigeons________.A. were the biggest bird in the worldB. lived mainly in the south of AmericaC. did great harm to the natural environmentD. were the largest bird population in the US29. The underlined word “undoing” probably refers to the pigeons'________.A. escapeB. ruinC. liberationD. evolution30. What was the main reason for people to kill passenger pigeons?A. To seek pleasure.B. To save other birds.C. To make money.D. To protect crops.31. What can we infer about the law passed in Michigan?A. It was ignored by the public.B. It was declared too late.C. It was unfair.D. It was strict.DWhen different species of birds flock(聚集) together, their flight formations are determined by social dynamics both between and within species.New research from the Universities of Cambridge and Exeter reveals for the first time that, contrary to current models used to explain the movement of flocks, the differences between bird species and social relationships between individuals play a critical role in determining the dynamics of mixed-species flocks.The unified(群集) behaviour of bird flocks has puzzled scientists for hundreds of years. One naturalist from the turn of the century even suggested telepathy(心灵感应) may be involved. There have since been more logical explanations, including mathematical models that show that repeated interactions among individuals following simple rules can generate coordinated(协同的) group movements. However, these models usually rely on the assumption that individuals within groups are identical and interact independently, which may not reflect reality.Jolle Jolles, a PhD student at the University of Cambridge's Department of Zoology and author of the paper, said：“Spectacular collective behaviour can be found in a large range of animal species, and we now know that often these complex coordinated group movements may be the result of individuals following simple rules. However, rarely are the individual characteristics and social relationships within them taken into account. Our research highlights that these striking displays of group behaviour are much more complex.”By analysing high-resolution photographs of mixed flocks of rooks and jackdaws(both from the corvid family), the researchers found that rather than individuals interacting in a consistent fashion throughout the flock, interactions depended on social dynamics between the different species as well as relationships within a species.The researchers discovered that birds prefer to fly close to members of their own species, and that the larger and more dominant rooks take the lead by flying near the front of flocks. Additionally, the lifelong, monogamous(一妻一夫制的) pair bonds that are characteristic of both species seem to be reflected in flight, as birds often fly particularly close to a single, same species partner.Dr Alex Thornton, principal investigator of the Cambridge Jackdaw Project, now at the University of Exeter and author of the paper, said “Together, our findings demonstrate that to understand the structure of groups，such as bird flocks，we need to consider the characteristics and relationships of the individuals within them.”32. The underlined word “generate” means ________.A．set down B．take awayC．bring about D．give up33．According to Jolle Jolles, what are seldom considered about coordinated group movement?A．Individual characteristics and social relationship between them.B．Repeated interactions among individuals and social dynamics.C．Telepathy and social relationship between them.D．The structure of groups and the varieties of species.34．Birds may prefer to fly the closest to ________.A．the largest one B．the most dynamic oneC．the lifelong partner D．the friendly partner35．What is the main idea of the passage?A．How birds interact in simple rules.B．How birds of different feathers flock together.C．Why birds show preference to flocking.D．Why birds display the characteristics.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。

AIn 1978，I was 18 and was working as a nurse in a small town about 270 km away from Sydney, Australia. I was looking forward to having five days off from duty. Unfortunately，the only one train a day back to my home in Sydney had already left. So I thought I'd hitch a ride （搭便车）．I waited by the side of the highway for three hours but no one stopped for me. Finally，a man walked over and introduced himself as Gordon. He said that although he couldn't give me a lift，I should come back to his house for lunch. He noticed me standing for hours in the November heat and thought I must be hungry. I was doubtful as a young girl but he assured （使……放心）me I was safe，and he also offered to help me find a lift home afterwards. When we arrived at his house，he made us sandwiches. After lunch，he helped me find a lift home.Twenty five years later，in 2003，while I was driving to a nearby town one day，I saw an elderly man standing in the glaring heat，trying to hitch a ride. I thought it was another chance to repay someone for the favour I'd been given decades earlier. I pulled over and picked him up. I made him comfortable on the back seat and offered him some water.After a few moments of small talk，the man said to me，“You haven't changed a bit，even your red hair is still the same.”I couldn't remember where I'd met him. He then told me he was the man who had given me lunch and helped me find a lift all those years ago. It was Gordon.1. The author had to hitch a ride one day in 1978 because ______.A．her work delayed her trip to SydneyB．she was going home for her holidaysC．the town was far away from SydneyD．she missed the only train back home2. Which of the following did Gordon do according to Paragraph 2?A．He helped the girl find a ride.B．He gave the girl a ride back home.C．He bought sandwiches for the girl.D．He watched the girl for three hours.3. The reason why the author offered a lift to the elderly man was that ______.A．she realized he was GordonB．she had known him for decadesC．she was going to the nearby townD．she wanted to repay the favour she once got4. What does the author want to tell the readers through the story?A．Giving sometimes produces nice results.B．Those who give rides will be repaid.C．Good manners bring about happiness.D．People should offer free rides to others.BIt happened to me recently. I was telling someone how much I had enjoyed reading Barack Obama's Dreams From My Father and how it had changed my views of our President. A friend I was talking to agreed with me that it was，in his words，“a brilliantly（精彩地）written book”．However，he then went on to talk about Mr. Obama in a way which suggested he had no idea of his background at all. I sensed that I was talking to a book liar.And it seems that my friend is not the only one. Approximately two thirds of people have lied about reading a book which they haven't. In the World Book Day's “Report on Guilty Secrets”，Dreams From My Father is at number 9.The report lists ten books，and various authors，which people have lied about reading，and as I'm not one to lie too often（I'd hate to be caught out），I'll admit here and now that I haven't read the entire top ten. But I am pleased to say that，unlike 42 percent of people，I have read the book at number one，George Orwell's 1984.I think it's really brilliant.The World Book Day report also has some other interesting information in it. It says that many people lie about having read Jane Austen，Charles Dickens，Fyodor Dostoevsky（I haven't read him，but haven't lied about it either）and Herman Melville. Asked why they lied，the most common reason was to “impress” someone they were speaking to. This could be tricky if the conversation became more in depth!But when asked which authors they actually enjoy，people named J．K. Rowling，John Grisham，Sophie Kinsella（ah，the big sellers，in other words）．Forty--two percent of people asked admitted they turned to the back of the book to read the end before finishing the story（I'll come clean：I do this and am astonished that 58 percent said they had never done so）．5. How did the author find his friend a book liar?A．By judging his manner of speaking.B．By looking into his background.C．By mentioning a famous name.D．By discussing the book itself.6. Which of the following is a “guilty secret” according to the World Book Day report?A．Charles Dickens is very low on the top-ten list.B．42% of people pretended to have read 1984.C．The author admitted having read 9 books.D．Dreams From My Father is hardly read.7. By lying about reading，a person hopes to ______.A．control the conversationB．appear knowledgeableC．learn about the bookD．make more friends8. What is the author's attitude to 58% of readers?A．Favorable.B．Uncaring.C．Doubtful.D．Friendly.CGiven that many people's moods（情绪）are regulated（调节）by the chemical action of chocolate，it was probably only a matter of time before somebody made thechocolate shop similar to a drugstore of Chinese medicine. Looking like a setting from the film Charlie& the Chocolate Factory，Singapore's Chocolate Research Facility（CRF）has over 100 varieties of chocolates. Its founder is Chris Lee who grew up at his parents' corner store with one hand almost always in the jar of sweets.If the CRF seems to be a smart idea，that's because Lee is not merely an experienced salesperson but also head of a marketing department that has business relations with big names such as Levi's and Sony. That idea surely results in the imagination at work when it comes to making different flavored（味道）chocolates.The CRF's produce is “green”，made within the country and divided into 10 lines，with the Alcohol Series being the most popular. The Exotic Series—with Sichuan pepper，red bean（豆），cheese and other flavors—also does well and is fun to taste. And for chocolate snobs，who think that they have a better knowledge of chocolate than others，the Connoisseur Series uses cocoa beans from Togo，Cuba，Venezuela，and Ghana，among others.9. What is good about chocolate?A．It serves as a suitable gift.B．It works as an effective medicine.C．It helps improve the state of mind.D．It strengthens business relations.10. Why is Chris Lee able to develop his idea of the CRF?A．He knows the importance of research.B．He learns from shops of similar types.C．He has the support of many big names.D．He has a lot of marketing experience.11. Which line of the CRF produce sells best?A．The Connoisseur Series.B．The Exotic Series. C．The Alcohol Series.D．The Sichuan Series.12.

I am having a baby. Why should I have to have someone sign for me to drive?”He answered coldly, “It's the law,madam.”Henry encouraged me to calm down, just go ahead and get the license and be done with it.“No,”I said. I refused to have him sign for me. So I left withoutaI called the North Carolina Motor Vehicle Office and renewed my NC license by mail—using my name Susan Brown.

It is generally agreed that a good student must be able to concentrate for a reasonable time on a written text, yet most students are given very little help to practice this skill. Almost all classroom reading is 1 into minutes of reading and therefore it is no wonder that a number of students have 2 in this field.If you have a problem with 3 , you must first examine the conditions in which you work. Lighting can be a problem: too many readers put up with 4 lighting conditions. If this is a problem, and you don’t have a reading lamp, try a strong bulb (灯泡), read near a window in day time and always avoid reading in your own shadow. 5 the light should come from overhead or over your shoulder. Reflective surfaces should be avoided. You should also 6 excessive contrast (过度对比) caused by using a reading lamp as the only 7 of light as this will cause great tiredness and probably eye injury.A second reason for poor concentration is the 8 of motivation, that is, an absence of any 9 sense of purpose. If this is the cause, you will almost 10 be bored by the text.Be sure that you keep your 11 in mind during your reading so that you know you should also adopt some specific techniques — such as making notes from your reading — to aid your concentration.If you play the role of a 12 receiver of information, simply concentrating on absorbing everything you read, you will 13 that your mind is overloaded, confused by the material. Then you should take a more active approach. Enter into a 14 with the text, pausing to reflect on what you read, and 15 what you find. That will be good for reading and comprehension.

Looking up, I saw the nest high in the branches. The b aby had fallen from the tall tree and I was sure it was dead.38 it moved when I reached down to pick it up. Its bald head was moving slightly from side to side 39 its mother. Amazed, I knew what I should do next. I got a 40 from my b asement and placed it against the tree. It was then that I hear d a sound “miaow”. Looking through the leaves, I saw the culp rit(肇事者), a neighborhood cat. He must have shaken the bird out of the 41 and gotten himself trapped up in the tree as well. Cli mbing up through the branches, I 42 him, gave him a scoldi ng and dropped him softly to the ground. Then I gently picked up the baby bird and slowly reached my arm out as 43 as I could to place it in the nest.In the following weeks I have looked up at the nest several tim es, but have only been able to see the mother bird.

Our task was to deliver as many boxes of food as possible to those in need in , . There were no Christmas carolers(唱颂歌的人) walking in these streets that were lined with boarded-up(用木板封住的) houses and broken windows. Mothers kept their children c lose as they hurried down in the streets. It was mid-afternoon, but the bright sun couldn’t warm the place.Red tickets in the windows marked which houses we were to visit. Our white truck stopped in front of one house and our gr oup knocked on the door. Our arms were filled with ham, brea d and other essentials to make the perfect Christmas dinner. Four small faces glanced through the curtains and one exhau sted mom answered the door. She seemed embarrassed to b e caught in her nightgown(睡衣) with undone hair. She was in her late-20s, but her rough skin and tired eyes added years.“Sacred Heart food deliver service,” I smiled. “ Where can we put this for you? ”She pointed to a place and as we entered the house, I noticed the conditions of the house they lived in. The children climbe d around, wearing only diapers(尿布). There were no carpets, only cold concrete beneath our fe et. There was no Christmas tree or decorations. My heart san k. It was so cold, and I found it hard to believe that this was th e reality for this family. We set boxes down and the mother gr abbed my hand.“You don’t know how much of a blessing this is to me and my family,” she said, crying. “We are just getting by.” I opened my arms and gave her a hug.“Happy holidays!” I replied before I headed out the door. I real ized how warm I felt inside.This was unlike anything I had ever experienced. We cannot help what family we are born into, but we can help each other.61.

We learn from the text that __________.A. the poor can also help othersB. assisting the poor needs actionC. people should help each otherD. having more children causes povertyCThe revised edition of the Dictionary of Modern Standard Chin ese has just been released, with more than 100 new terms ad ded to it. The new terms include weixin, or WeChat etc. There are also some older words recently used again and repurpos ed for contemporary(当代的) use, such as tuhao. Commonly used in the 1930s to refer to local persons who are rich but cruel, tuhao today laughs at a new privileged class that has appeared in : people who are “extremely wealthy but lacking in education or values.”But why did weixin and tuhao make the cut, while other popul ar terms were shut out? Not admitted to the new edition were such words as diaosi, shengnü, and baifumei.Li Xingjian, the chief editor of the dictionary, said about 30 lan guage experts worked for more than three years to select the new terms. They took into account three main considerations: whether the term has entered public topic, whether the use of the term has become stable and whether the term meets a m inimum level of tastefulness.“We considered and discussed a huge list,” Mr. Li said. “A ter m like diaosi is not very tasteful, and it’s unlikely to be used fo r much longer. And shengnü, we thought it wasn’t that signific ant. It’s used a lot by young people online, but otherwise peop le don’t really use it.”“On the other hand, tuhao has always been around. It has a mocking(嘲弄的) meaning, but it’s not necessarily negative,” he said. “We t hink it’ll stay around for a while, because in real life there reall y are these kinds of people and therefore a need to describe t hem.”The Dictionary of Modern Standard Chinese, first published in 2004, is appreciated especially by scholars and those interes ted in contemporary usage. But it is not the first reference dicti onary in . That honor still goes to the New China Character Di ctionary and the Contemporary Chinese Dictionary. Every five years, the Dictionary of Modern Standard Chinese is revised, with outdated words dropped to make room for new ones. 66. What does the underlined words phrase “make the cut” in Paragraph 2 mean?A. Select.B. Exclude.C. Replace.D. Explain.67. How many aspects were taken into consideration to choose the new terms for the dictionary?A. 2.B. 3.C. 4.D. 5.68. Why was shengnü not chosen into the new Dictionary of Modern Standard Chinese?A. Because it is never used in their daily life.B. Because it is not popular on the Internet these days.C. Because it is neither tasteful nor likely to endure long.D. Because it is not so important and is mainly used onli ne by young people.69. Which is NOT True according to the passage?A. The Dictionary of Modern Standard Chinese was first publi shed in 2004.B. The Dictionary of Modern Standard Chinese is the first refe rence dictionary.C. The term tuhao will exist for some time.D. About 30 language experts worked for over three years to choose the new terms.70. What is the main idea of the passage?A. Every five years, the Dictionary of Modern Standard Chine se is revised.B. People think differently about the newly chosen terms.C. Many new terms were chosen into the Dictionary of Moder n Standard Chinese.D. The language experts think highly of newly chosen terms.Part Ⅳ Writing (45 marks)Section A (10 marks)Directions: Read the following passage. Fill in the numbered b lanks by using the information from the passage.Write NO MORE THAN THREE WORDS for each answer. Chinese parents are very generous when it comes to educatin g their children. Not caring about the money, parents often se nd their children to the best schools or even abroad to Englan d, the US or . They also want their children to take extra-course activities where they will either learn a musical instrum ent or ballet, or other classes that will give them a head start i n life. The Chinese believe that the more expensive an educat ion is, the better it is. So parents will spend unreasonable am ount of money on education. Even poor couples will buy computers for their sons or daughters.However, what most parents fail to see is that the best educat ion they can give to their children is usually very cheap. Parents can see that their children’s skills vary, skilled in som e areas while poor in others. What most parents fail to realize though, is that today’s children lack self-respect and self-confidence.The reasons are that parents are only educating their children on how to take multiple-choice tests and how to study well, but parents are not teachi ng them the most important skills: they need to be confident, happy and clever.Parents can achieve this by teaching practical skills like cooki ng, sewing and doing other housework.Teaching a child to cook will improve many of the skills that h e will need later in life. Cooking demands patience and time. It is an enjoyable but difficult experience. A good cook always t ries to improve his cooking, so he will learn to work hard and gradually finish his job successfully. His result, a well-cooked dinner, will give him much satisfaction and a lot of con fidence. These activities are not only teaching a child to work, but rather to think, and to use his mind. And that is more impo rtant.Section B (10 marks)Directions: Read the following passage. Answer the questionsaccording to the information given in the passage.At least 36 people have been killed and another 42 people ha ve been injured in a stampede that broke out during a New Ye ar Eve celebration in downtown , which may have been cause d by the crowd rushing to grab fake money thrown from the b alcony of a building.Survivors described the stampede as “horrible and hellish.”A woman said she covered two kids in front of her with her ar ms in the chaos. Her son followed her. Dirty shoe prints cover ed her son’s clothes when the 12-year-old boy came to safety.“The crowd was in a panic.

AOne afternoon last week, I saw three tearful children from my son's school being comforted by teachers. That morning, my 11-year-old had stomach pains, retching (干呕) into a bowl. Talking to other mothers later, I heard about other children with stomachache or difficulty sleeping the night before.What caused so much pain? Sports day. Sports day might be necessary at a highly competitive independent school, but not at a village primary school. For the children who can fly like the wind, sports day causes no problem. For those who are overweight or just not good at sport, it is a nightmare (噩梦). Even for those who enjoy running but fall halfway down the track in front of the entire school and their parents，it can prove a disaster.Why do we put our children through this annual suffering? Some may say competition is character building；or it's taking part, not winning, that's important；or that it is a tradition of school life. I just felt great pity for those children in tears or in pain.Team games at the end of sports day produced some close races, wild enthusiasm, lots of shouting—and were fun to watch. More importantly, the children who were not so fast or quick at passing the ball were hidden a little from everyone's eyes. Some of them also had the thrill of being on the winning side.I wish that sports day could be abandoned and replaced with some other less competitive event. Perhaps an afternoon of team games, with a few races for those who want them, would be less stressful for the children and a lot more fun to watch.21．What can we learn about the author's son from Paragraph 1?A．He talked with some mothers. B．He comforted his classmates.C．He had difficulty in sleeping. D．He suffered from stomachache.22．Sports day is still an annual event in this school probably because __________.A．this is an independent school B．it is a tradition of the schoolC．it helps children lose weight D．children enjoy watching sports23．What does the author think about team games?A．They should include more stressful races.B．They are acceptable to different children.C．They should be abandoned at primary schools.D．They are less fun for those who love running.24．What is the author's attitude towards sports day?A．Critical. B．Neutral.C．Positive. D．Ambiguous.BMOOCs, short f or “massive open online courses，” mark an important, possibly revolutionary, development in education. These courses are on line, free of charge, and open to anyone in the world who has a laptop and an Internet connection. Moreover, they are mainly offered by great universities like Stanford, Berkeley, Harvard and Columbia.The courses are arranged according to how difficult they are, enabling students to progress from beginners to the advanced. The courses cover not only a broad range of science subjects such as math and computer science, but also courses in social sciences and humanities. Though MOOCs are not offered for credit and degree, many students enroll(加入) in the courses for real skills or knowledge which they can put to some practical use.The format(形式) seems better than the traditional school class. The average quality of the lecturers is much higher. Besides, students can learn back and forward—that is, they can go at their own learning speed, which they can't do in a live lecture. And, more importantly, they don't have to travel anywhere to attend an online lecture. There is a problem of asking questions of the lecturer in a class of ten thousand students, but some MOOCs have solved it by allowing students to post questions on line for a vote, and only the most popular questions are put to the lecturer.In a knowledge age, lifelong learning is not confined to a traditional classroom. Students taking MOOCS are usually very clever, have work experience, and in many cases, have already developed a set of practical skills. Moreover, they also offer unique international perspectives(远景) that would be the envy of any school classroom.25．Which of the following statements is NOT true about MOOCs?A．The word “MOOCs” is short for “massive open online campuses”．B．Anyone who has a computer and an Internet connection can take MOOCs.C．MOOCs are usually offered by first-class universities in the world.D．MOOCs may be a breakthrough in the development of education.26．MOOCs seem to have an advantage over traditional school classes in that ________.A．there is a problem of asking questions in traditional classesB．students enrolling in MOOCs can get credit and degree easilyC．students can learn at their own study paceD．students can travel to many places when taking MOOCs27．The meaning of the underlined word “confined” means ________.A．extended B．developedC．limited D．advancedCPassenger pigeons (旅鸽)once flew over much of the United States in unbelievable numbers. Written accounts from the 18th and 19th centuries described flocks (群)so large that they darkened the sky for hours.It was calculated that when its population reached its highest point, there were more than 3 billion passenger pigeons—a number equal to 24 to 40 percent of the total bird population in the United States, making it perhaps the most abundant bird in the world. Even as late as 1870 when their numbers had already become smaller, a flock believed to be 1 mile wide and 320 miles (about 515 kilometers) long was seen near Cincinnati.Sadly the abundance of passenger pigeons may have been their undoing. Where the birds were most abundant, people believed there was an everlasting supply and killed them by the thousands. Commercial hunters attracted them to small clearings with grain, waited until pigeons had settled to feed, then threw large nets over them, taking hundreds at a time. The birds were shipped to large cities and sold in restaurants.By the closing decades of the 19th century，the hardwood forests where passenger pigeons nested had been damaged by Americans' need for wood, which scattered (驱散) the flocks and forced the birds to go farther north, where cold temperatures and spring storms contributed to their decline. Soon the great flocks were gone, never to be seen again.In 1897, the state of Michigan passed a law prohibiting the killing of passenger pigeons, but by then, no sizable flocks had been seen in the state for 10 years. The last confirmed wild pigeon in the United States was shot by a boy in Pike County, Ohio, in 1900. For a time, a few birds survived under human care. The last of them, known affectionately as Martha, died at the Cincinnati Zoological Garden on September 1, 1914.28. In the 18th and early 19th centuries, passenger pigeons________.A. were the biggest bird in the worldB. lived mainly in the south of AmericaC. did great harm to the natural environmentD. were the largest bird population in the US29. The underlined word “undoing” probably refers to the pigeons'________.A. escapeB. ruinC. liberationD. evolution30. What was the main reason for people to kill passenger pigeons?A. To seek pleasure.B. To save other birds.C. To make money.D. To protect crops.31. What can we infer about the law passed in Michigan?A. It was ignored by the public.B. It was declared too late.C. It was unfair.D. It was strict.DWhen different species of birds flock(聚集) together, their flight formations are determined by social dynamics both between and within species.New research from the Universities of Cambridge and Exeter reveals for the first time that, contrary to current models used to explain the movement of flocks, the differences between bird species and social relationships between individuals play a critical role in determining the dynamics of mixed-species flocks.The unified(群集) behaviour of bird flocks has puzzled scientists for hundreds of years. One naturalist from the turn of the century even suggested telepathy(心灵感应) may be involved. There have since been more logical explanations, including mathematical models that show that repeated interactions among individuals following simple rules can generate coordinated(协同的) group movements. However, these models usually rely on the assumption that individuals within groups are identical and interact independently, which may not reflect reality.Jolle Jolles, a PhD student at the University of Cambridge's Department of Zoology and author of the paper, said：“Spectacular collective behaviour can be found in a large range of animal species, and we now know that often these complex coordinated group movements may be the result of individuals following simple rules. However, rarely are the individual characteristics and social relationships within them taken into account. Our research highlights that these striking displays of group behaviour are much more complex.”By analysing high-resolution photographs of mixed flocks of rooks and jackdaws(both from the corvid family), the researchers found that rather than individuals interacting in a consistent fashion throughout the flock, interactions depended on social dynamics between the different species as well as relationships within a species.The researchers discovered that birds prefer to fly close to members of their own species, and that the larger and more dominant rooks take the lead by flying near the front of flocks. Additionally, the lifelong, monogamous(一妻一夫制的) pair bonds that are characteristic of both species seem to be reflected in flight, as birds often fly particularly close to a single, same species partner.Dr Alex Thornton, principal investigator of the Cambridge Jackdaw Project, now at the University of Exeter and author of the paper, said “Together, our findings demonstrate that to understand the structure of groups，such as bird flocks，we need to consider the characteristics and relationships of the individuals within them.”32. The underlined word “generate” means ________.A．set down B．take awayC．bring about D．give up33．According to Jolle Jolles, what are seldom considered about coordinated group movement?A．Individual characteristics and social relationship between them.B．Repeated interactions among individuals and social dynamics.C．Telepathy and social relationship between them.D．The structure of groups and the varieties of species.34．Birds may prefer to fly the closest to ________.A．the largest one B．the most dynamic oneC．the lifelong partner D．the friendly partner35．What is the main idea of the passage?A．How birds interact in simple rules.B．How birds of different feathers flock together.C．Why birds show preference to flocking.D．Why birds display the characteristics.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。

In my case it was definitely made. In my early 20s, I hardly went to bed before midnight, and I would always get up late the next morning.But after a while I couldn’t ignore the high relationship between success and rising early. On those rare occasions where I did get up early, I noticed that my productivity (效率) was always higher. So I set out to become a habitual early riser. But whenever my alarm went off, my first thought was always to stop that noise and go back to sleep. Eventually some sleep research showed that my strategy was wrong.The most common wrong strategy is this: supposing you’re going to get up earlier, you’d better go to bed earlier. It sounds very reasonable, but will usually fail.There are two main schools (流派) of thought on sleep patterns. One is that you should go to bed and get up at the same time every day. The second school says you should go to bed when you’re tired and get up when you naturally wake up. However,I have found both are wrong if you care about productivity. If you sleep at fixed hours, you’ll sometimes go to bed when you aren’t sleepy enough. You’re wasting time lying in bed awake.My solution is to combine both methods. I go to bed when I’m sleepy and get up with an alarm clock at a fixed time. So I always get up at the same time (in my case 5 a.m.), but I go to bed at different times every night.However, going to bed only when I’m sleepy, and getting up at a fixed time every morning are my ways. If you want to become an early riser, you can try your own.56. According to the passage, the underlined phrase refers to ________.A. people who stay up until the next morningB. people who get up early in the morningC. people who feel sleepy in the morningD. people whose productivity is the lowest in the morning57. Why did the author want to become a habitual early riser?A. Because he / she wanted to have more sleep time.B. Because he / she wanted to do morning exercise.C. Because he / she wanted to test which school is better.D. Because he / she found that the productivity was higher.58. The author experienced all the following EXCEPT ________.A. going to bed after midnightB. asking scholars for advice on sleeping habitsC. getting up early occasionallyD. pressing off the alarm to go on sleeping59. What’s the author’s sleep pattern?A. Going to bed early and getting up early.B. Going to bed late and getting up late.C. Going to bed when sleepy and getting up at a fixed early time.D. Going to bed early and getting up late.60. The passage is mainly about ________.A. main schools of thought on sleep patternsB. how to have a good sleepC. wrong strategies for getting up earlyD. how to become an early riserBTwo hours from the tall buildings of Manhattan and Philadelphia (费城) live some of the world’s largest black bears. They are in northern Pennsylvania’s Pocono Mountains, a home they share with an abundance of other wildlife.The streams, lakes, grassland, mountains and forests that make the Poconos an ideal place for black bears have also attracted more people to the area. Open spaces are threatened by plans for building houses and important habitats are endangered by highway construction. To protect the Poconos natural beauty from irresponsible development, the Nature Conservancy (自然保护协会) named the area one of America’s “Last Great Places”.The conservancy’s member Cook is working with local people and business leaders to balance economic growth with environmental protection. By cooperating with people like Francis Altemose, the Conservancy has been able to protect more than 14, 000 acres of environmentally important land in the area.Altemose’s family has farmed in the Pocono area for generations. Two years ago Francis worked with the Conservancy to include his farm in a county farmland protection program. As a result, his family’s land can be protected from development. Cook owes the Conservancy’s success in the Poconos to having a local presence and a commitment to working with local people. “The key to protecting these remarkable lands is connecting with the local community”, Cook said. The people who live there respect the land. They value quiet forests, clear streams and abundant wildlife. They are eager to help with conservation effort.61. The purpose of naming the Poconos “Last Great Places”is to ________.A. protect it from irresponsible developmentB. ask for money from the local communityC. find a better home for black bearsD. sell it for a higher price62. We can infer from the second paragraph that ________.A. the population in the Poconos is growingB. wildlife in the Poconos is increasing rapidlyC. the security of the Pocono people is being threatenedD. farmers in the Poconos are looking forward to the development.63. According to Cook, the success in protecting the Poconos lies in ________.A. setting up an environmental protection websiteB. getting support from the Nature ConservancyC. cooperating with the local people and business leadersD. being included in the farmlands in the area’s protection program64.What does Cook mean by saying “having a local presence”?A. Financial help from local business leaders.B. Consideration of the interests of the local people.C. The establishment of a new government in the area.D. The setting up of a local Nature Conservancy in the Pocono area.65. Which section of a newspaper is the passage most probably taken from?A. businessB. sportsC. environmentD. cultureCIn this age of Internet chat, videogames and reality television, there is no shortage of mindless activities to keep a child busy. Yet, my 8-year-old daughter Rebecca wants to spend her leisure time writing short stories. She wants to enter one of her stories into a writing contest, which she won last year.As a writer I know about winning and losing contests. I know what it is like to work hard on a story only to be rejected by the publisher. I also know the pressure of tryingto live up to a reputation created by previous victories. What if she doesn’t win the contest again? So many of my own past scars and dashed hopes can surface.A revelation (启示) came last week when I asked her, “Don’t you want to win again?”“No,”she replied, “I just want to tell the story of an angel going to first grade.”I had just spent weeks correcting her stories as she spontaneously (自发地) told them. Telling myself that I was merely an experienced writer guiding the young writer, I offered suggestions for characters, conflicts and endings for her stories. The story about a fearful angel starting first grade was quickly “guided”by me into the story of a little girl. I had turned her contest into my contest without even realizing it.Staying back and giving kids space to grow is not as easy as it looks. While stepping back was difficult for me, it was certainly a good first step that I will quickly follow with more steps, putting myself far enough away to give her room but close enough to help if asked. All the while I will be reminding myself that children need room to experiment, grow and find their own voices.66. What do we learn from the first paragraph?A. Children nowadays are out of mind in the activities.B. Rebecca prefers to devote her leisure time to writing.C. Rebecca has collected many online materials for her writing.D. The author’s daughter lost the writing competition.67. What did the author say about her own writing experience?A. She had a lot of painful experiences.B. Her way to success was full of praises and awards.C. She was constantly under pressure of writing more.D. Most of her stories had been rejected by publishers.68. Why did Rebecca want to enter this year’s writing contest?A. She was confident about her real talent in writing.B. She was sure of winning with her mother’s help.C. She wanted to share her stories with readers.D. She won last year.69. The author took great pains to improve her daughter’s stories because _______.A. she believed she was an experienced writer to offer guidanceB. her daughter asked her mother to correct her stories as she likedC. she wanted to help Rebecca realize her dream of becoming a writerD. she was afraid Rebecca’s imagination might be out of control70. What’s the author’s advice for parents?A. Not every child is suitable to be a writer.B. Children should be allowed to grow without pain.C. Parents should keep an eye on the activities their kids participate in.D. Children should be given every chance to voice their own opinions.Part ⅣWriting (45 marks)Section A (10 marks)Directions: Read the following passage. Fill in the numbered blanks by using the information fromthe passage.Write NO MORE THAN THREE WORDS for each answer.Food makes us feel good, but some people eat when they aren’t really hungry and eat to simply feel good. This kind of eating habit is called emotional eating, which does not affect adults but also young children. It isn’t a good thing.A child’s eating habits can develop right from childhood. As we know, a baby cries out if he doesn’t get milk at the usual time of the day. However, sometimes parents immediately stick a bottle in a child’s mouth without trying to find out if the child is really hungry. In fact, children may cry for other reasons. Even as children grow up and start going to school, parents sometimes give them a chocolate bar if they become really unhappy. As the children further grow up, they may become used to having a snack whenever they’re upset or low.Therefore, they’d like to eat an emotional snack when they have the feeling of unhappiness and boredom. Even when they don’t get high grades, aren’t popular at school or made fun of by others, they will want something to eat. After having the snack, they feel a lot better.Emotional eating in young children is a thing that needs to be taken seriously. To protect your children from emotional eating, you should satisfy your child’s emotional needs in the best possible way. This includes spending time with your child every day, taking an interest in his school work, helping your child study, providing a health environment without tension at home, etc. Don’t make the child lose face by scoldinghim. Develop confidence in your child. Make your child eat enough once in a while. Reward him for his achievements.All this will help your little one develop a healthy eating habit. And always remember love and care is the key to help you child out of trouble and grow up happily.Title: 71 in Young ChildrenSection B (10 marks)Directions: Read the following passage. Answer the questions according to the information given in the passage.We lived in a very quiet neighborhood. One evening I heard a loud crash in the street. Earlier that evening my wife had asked me to go to the store to get some soft drinks. It seemed like this would be a good time to let my teenager daughter Holly practice her driving.At dinner my son talked about how much he liked my truck. I enjoyed having it, but I said, “Guy, my heart is not set on that truck. I like it but it is just metal and won’t last forever. Never set your heart on anything that won’t last.”After hearing the loud noise, the whole family ran outside. My son shouted, “Dad! Dad, Holly crashed your truck.”My heart sank and my mind was flooded with conflicting thoughts. Was anyone hurt? Who else was involved? As I ran to the door, I heard a voice in my heart say, “Here is a chance to show Holly what you really love. She’ll never forget it.”The accident had occurred in my own driveway. Holly had crashed my truck into our other vehicle, the family van (搬运车). In her inexperience, she had confused the brakes and the gas pedal. Holly was unhurt physically, but when I reached her, she was crying and saying, “Oh, Dad, I’m sorry. I know how much you love this truck.”I held her in my arms as she cried.Later that week a friend stopped by and asked what had happened to my truck. I told her the story. Her eyes moistened(湿润) and she said, “That happened to me when I was a girl. I borrowed my dad’s car and ran into a log that had fallen across the road. I ruined the car. When I got home my Dad knocked me to the ground and began to kick me.”Over 40 years later, she still felt the pain of that night. It was a deepwound on her soul.I remember how sad Holly was the night and how I comforted her. One day, when Holly thinks back on her life, I want her to know that I love her a thousand times more than any piece of property. I repaired the van, but the dent (凹痕) in my truck is still there today. Every day it reminds me of what really matters in my life.81. Why did the father permit his daughter to drive his truck? (No more than 5 words) (2 marks)82. How did the accident happen? (No more than 11 words) (3 marks)83. What happened to the author’s friend after she ruined her dad’s car?(No more than 11 words) (2 marks)84. What does the writer try to tell us according to the passage? (No more than 10 words) (3 marks)Section C (25 marks)Directions: Write an English composition according to the instructions given below in Chinese.假设你的笔友Jack因上期高三期末数学考试未及格而倍受打击，情绪低落。
