William Thackeray, a famous British writer, said, “Life is a mirror. 15 you smile in front of it, it will also smile and so will it when you cry to it.” If you are grateful to life, it will bring you shining sunlight. If you always complain about everything, you may own 16 in the end.If each of us has an attitude of being grateful, we’ll be able to get rid 17 impulse, upset, dissatisfaction and misfortune. Being grateful can bring us 18 better and more beautiful life.Ⅲ.Reading ComprehensionDirections: Read the following three passages., Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B,C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage.2010 was the year the Earth struck back.Earthquakes, heat waves, floods, volcanoes, super typhoons, blizzards(暴风雪), landslides(滑坡)and droughts killed at least a quarter million people in 2010---the deadliest year in more than a generation. More people were killed worldwide by natural disasters this year than have been killed in terrorism attacks in the past 40 years combined.“It just seemed like it was back-to-back (接二连三) and it came waves,”said Craig Fugate, who heads the US Federal Emergency Management Agency. It handled a record number of disasters in 2010.“The term ' 100-year event ' really lost its meaning this year.”And we have ourselves to blame most of the time, scientists and disaster experts say.Even though many disasters seem accidental, the hand of man made this a particularly deadly, costly, extreme and strange year for everything from wild weather to earthquakes.Poor construction and development practices make earthquake more deadly than they need be. More people live in poverty in vulnerable building (危房) in crowded cities. That means that when the ground shakes the river breaches(攻破), or the tropical cyclone (旋风) hits, more people die.The January earthquake that killed well more than 220000 people in Haita is a perfect example. Port-au-Prince has nearly three times as many people, many of them living in poverty, and more poorly built shanties (棚户区) than it did 25 years ago. So had the same quake hit in 1985 instead of 2010, total deaths would have probably been in the 80 000 range,said Richard Olson, director of disaster risk reduction at Florida International University.Climate scientists say Earth's climate also is changing thanks to man-made global warning, bringing extreme weather, such as heat waves and flooding.The excessive (过多的) amount of extreme weather of 2010 is a clear sign of man-made global warning that climate scientists have long warned about. They calculate that the killer Russian heat wave ---setting a national record of 111 degrees --- would happen once every 100000 years without global warning.Preliminary (之前的) data show that 18 counties broke their records for the hottest day ever.White House science adviser John Holdren said we should get used to climate disasters or do something about global warning. "The science is clear that we can expect more and more of these kinds of damaging events unless and until society's emissions of heat-trapping (吸热的)gases and particles are sharply reduce."19. What does the second paragraph mainly tell us?A．How the Earth struck back in 2010. B. Why the Earth struck back.C．How terrorism attacks struck. D. What natural disaster mean to us.20. What does the underlined word "it" refer to in the third paragraph?A．Earthquake. B. The Earth. C. 2010 D. Natural disaster.21. What do the fifth, sixth and seventh paragraphs mainly tell us?A. The reason why there were so mainly disasters in 2010.B. The way that natural disasters happened.C. The way that man built buildings.D. The way that people lived.22. What is the way to cut back on the number of natural disasters?A. To build stronger houses.B．To develop less.C. To reduce the emissions of heat-trapping gases and particles greatly.D. To forecast the happening of natural disasters correctly.23. Why did the writer give the example of the earthquake that happened in Haiti?A．To show more people's living in vulnerable building can cause more people to die in an earthquake.B．To show Haiti is a poor country.C．To show Port-au-Prince is too crowded.D．To show man's forecast ability of an earthquake reduced.英语答案1 B.。

One of them plays a guitar made from an empty oil tin. Their headmistress, Emile Jean-Noel, is one of the few women school principals in the country. ks**5uOver 70 % of Haitian population live below the poverty line with inadequate food, water, schools, or housing. To reduce the hunger that prevents learning and to encourage parents to send their children to school, meals are provided by the World Food Programme.“We are so cut off we have many difficulties,” comments Emile, adding that finding chalk, school books and other materials is practically impossible. Emile tries to encourage those around her to make use of all available resources. Her efforts are bearing fruit. One of her successes was convincing local women to contribute to their children’s schooling and increase their own income by selling embroidery(刺绣) and other handicrafts. ks**5uRecent political instability has meant that the country has not invested in education for ten years. Enrolment(入学) is a mere 44 per cent and a little less than a half of those entering primary school finish it. Less than a third of these go on to secondary school. In rural areas it is not rare to find 17- and 18 year-olds in primary school. Beau-Roc has only 4 teachers for 260 pupils. Emile works constantly to improve her pupils’ environment. Under her direction, a local wo rker is now constructing a storehouse for the food delivered regularly by the World Food Programme.Not only is Emile’s salary too little, but she receives it irregularly. For her, transport is a real headache. She lives five kilometers away and has to take a privately-owned bus, costing more than she can afford.“The decision to be a rural teacher in Haiti should not be taken lightly”, Emile comments. “With all the sacrifices and risks it requires, only those who are really cut out for teaching should do i t.” Nevertheless, Emile loves her job. “I always feel at home with the children and, the parents understand what I’m doing.”56. What theme is presented in this passage?A. Devotion to education.B. Poverty and hardship.C. Politics and childrenD. Love and beauty ks**5u57. Which of the following is extremely difficult for Beau-Roc primary school?A. Teaching the women how to make embroidery and other handicrafts.B. Persuading local women to care about their children’s education.C. Encouraging those around her to use those available resources.D. Finding chalk, school books and other materials.58. In the last paragraph, “those who are really cut out for teaching” are those who are ________.A. dismissed from teachingB. unfamiliar with teachingC. qualified for teachingD. cautious about teachingBLabor force is defined as being the total number of people who are available to work and earn income. This definition includes everyone who is employed or seeking paid employment, so it includes employers and the self-employed. Labor is one of the country's resources which can be combined with other resources to produce the goods and services wanted by the community.Although the size of the workforce depends a great deal on the size of the total population, there are several other influences which also affect it. The age distribution (分布) of the total population has a very marked effect on the available workforce. If the population has a high proportion of very young people or of those too old to work, then the available workforce would be lower than if there were a balanced spread age distribution. If the population naturally grows rapidly, the number of births greatly exceeds (超出) the number of deaths then as a total population increases proportion of the workforce declines.Sometimes a population is described as aging which means that the birth rate is either falling or growing very slowly, and as people retire from the workforce there are insufficient numbers of young people entering it to replace those who are leaving it. In that situation the population is top-heavy with older people. So the percentage of the population in the workforce declines when there is either a rapid increase in births or a falling birth rate. ks**5uThe age distribution of the population has several important effects on the economy. If the population is aging and there is an increase in the number of people retiring without a corresponding increase in the number entering the workforce, this raises the problem of the ability of the economy to provide a reasonable level of social services to the retired group. If the aged are to be cared for in special homes, finance must be available for that purpose. If the size of the workforce is small relative to the total population, then the government tax revenue (税收) is relatively low and either the government has less money available to it or the workforce members have to be taxed more heavily.59．In the passage “labor force” is defined as ___________.A．people who are available to work and earn incomeB．self-employed people onlyC．people who are looking for an employment ks**5uD．employers who create job opportunities60．The conclusion which can be drawn from the second paragraph is that___________.A．a natural growth of population leads to a balanced workforceB．a large population does not necessarily mean a higher proportion of workforceC．the larger the population, the higher the proportion of the workforceD．the workforce will be lower, if the population has a balanced age distribution，61．When a population is said to be aging，___________.A．there are more people retiring than those entering the workforceB．the birth rate must be growingC．there should be an oversupply of workforceD．There are more people entering the workforce than those retiringC(1) Mr. Brown (the motorist)At about 9:20 p.m. on October 14th, I was driving along Market Road in the direction of Midwick. I wanted to go to Sturham to collect my wife, who had been visiting some friends. I prepared to turn into Sturham Road, which was on my right. In the distance, I saw the lights of a car moving towards me but it was along way from me. I put out my hand to show that I was going to turn right. Then I started to turn slowly towards Sturham Road. Suddenly there was a loud noise on the passenger’s (near) side of the car. I stopped the car and got out. A motorcycle had hit my car. The motorcyclist had been thrown over the car. He was injured, so I ran to a shop to phone for help.(2) Mt. Smith (the injured motorcyclist)On the evening of October 14th , I was going home along Market Road towards Newtown. I was riding my motorcycle. I was going slowly because some of the streetlights were out and road was wet and slippery. Just before Sturham road, a car suddenly drove right across my path. The driver did not flash his lights to give a warning. I could not turn in time, so I hit the side of the car. When I woke up, I was lying in a hospital in Market Road.(3) Mr. Lee (another motorcyclist) ks**5uAt about 9:10 p.m. on October 14th , I left my home in Midwick. Ten minutes later I was riding my motorcycle along Market Road. I was going to Newton. There was a motorcycle about 40 meters in front of me. It was not going very quickly. The man on it was riding near the curb (路边) but I was near the center of the road. The motorcyclist in front of me tried to turn to his right but there was no time. He hit the car and was injured. There was no car going along in front of us o put by the road. ks**5u62. Which of these pictures exactly shows the scene of the accident?X= the place where the motorcycle hit the car; N=Newtown;M= Midwick; S=Sturham (Note that cars and motorcycles always keep to the left in England.)63. Which of these statements about the accident is probably correct?A. Mr. Brown wrongly supposed that the lights of the two motorcycles were those of a car.B. the lights of the car moving towards Mr. Brown made him unable to see.C. Mr. Brown knocked down a motorcyclist on purpose.D. The accident was caused by the carelessness of the first motorcyclist.64. It seems probable from the statements that Mr. Brown ______ .A. gave no signal to show that he was turning rightB. did not five any signal until he was actually turningC. failed to give a proper signal at that timeD. flashed his light to show that he was going to turn65. We would expect to find that Mr. Brown’s car was damaged on its ______ side.A. frontB. leftC. rightD. driver’sM M MDDAs any homemaker who has tried to keep order at the dinner table knows, there is far more to a family meal than food. Sociologist Michael Lewis has been studying 50 families to find out just how much more. ks**5uLewis and his co-workers carried out their study by videotaping the families while they ate ordinary meals in their own homes. They found that parents with small families talk actively with each other and their children. But as the number of children gets larger, conversation gives way to the parents’ efforts to control the loud noise they make. That can have an important effect on the children. “In general the more question-asking the parents do, the higher the children’s IQ scores,” Lewis says. “And the more children there are, the less question-aski ng there is.”The study also provides an explanation for why middle children often seem to have a harder time in life than their siblings(兄弟姐妹). Lewis found that in families with three or four children, dinner conversation is likely to center on the oldest child, who has the most to talk about, and the youngest, who needs the most attention. “Middle children are invisible.” Says Lewis. “When you see someone get up from the table and walk around during dinner, chances are it’s the middle child.” There is, however, one thing that stops all conversation and prevents anyone from having attention: “When the TV is on,” Lewis says, “dinner is a non-event.”66. The writer’s purpose in writing the text is to ______ .A. show the relationship between parents and childrenB. teach parents ways to keep order at the dinner tableC. report on the findings of a studyD. give information about family problems67. By saying “Middle children are invisible” in paragrap h 3, Lewis means that middle children______ .A. have to help their parents to serve dinnerB. get the least attention from the familyC. are often kept away from the dinner tableD. find it hard to keep up with other children68. Parents with large families ask fewer questions at dinner because ______ .A. they are busy serving food to their childrenB. they are busy keeping order at the dinner tableC. they have to pay more attention to younger childrenD. they are tired out having prepared food for the whole family69. Lewis research provides an answer to the question ______ .A. Why TV is important in family ks**5uB. why parents should keep good orderC. why children in small families seem to be quietD. why middle children seem to have more difficulties in life70. Which of the following statements would the writer agree to?A. It is important to have the right food for children.B. It is a good idea to have the TV on during dinner.C. Parents should talk to each of their children frequently.D. Elder children should help the younger ones at dinner.第二节（共5小题; 每小题3分，满分15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。

I got to know Dorothy in the early 1980s，when I was teaching Early Childhood Development through a program with Union College in Barbourville, Kentucky. The job responsibilities required occasional visits to the classroom of each teacher in the program. Dorothy stands out in my memory as one who “bloomed” in her remote area.Dorothy taught in a school in Harlan County, Kentucky, Appalachian Mountain area. To get to her school from the town of Harlan, I followed a road winding around the mountain. In the eight-mile journey, I crossed the same railroad track five times, giving the possibility of getting caught by the same train five times. Rather than feeling excited by this drive through the mountains, I found it depressing. The poverty level was shocking and the small shabby houses gave me the greatest feeling of hopelessness.From the moment of my arrival at the little school, all gloom(忧郁) disappeared. Upon arriving at Dorothy's classroom, I was greeted with smiling faces and treated like a queen. The children had been prepared to show me their latest projects. Dorothy told me with a big smile that they were serving poke greens salad andc ornbread for “dinner” (lunch). In case you don't know, poke greens are a weed-type plant that grows wild, especially on poor ground.Dorothy never ran out of reports of exciting activities of her students. Her enthusiasm never cooled down. When it came time to sit for the testing and interviewing required to receive her Child Development Associate Certification, Dorothy was ready. She came to the assessment and passed in all areas. Afterward, she invited me to the one-and-only steak house in the area to celebrate her victory, as if she had received her Ph.D. degree. After the meal, she placed a little box containing an old pen in my hand. She said it was a family heirloom (传家宝), but to me it is a treasured symbol of appreciation and pride that cannot be matched with things.【1】“Early Childhood Development” in Paragraph I refers to ________．A．a course given by the authorB．an organization sponsored by Union CollegeC．a program directed by DorothyD．an activity held by the students【2】Upon arriving at the classroom, the author was cheered up by ________．A．the sight of poke greensB．a warm welcomeC．Dorothy's latest projectsD．a big dinner made for her【3】What can we know about Dorothy from the last paragraph?A．She was invited to a celebration at a restaurant.B．She got a pen as a gift from the author.C．She received her Ph.D．degree.【4】What does the author mainly intend to tell us?A．Whatever you do, you must do it carefully.B．Whoever you are, you deserve equal treatmentC．However poor you are, you have the right to education.D．Wherever you are, you can accomplish your achievement.3.If Confucius(孔子) were still alive today and could celebrate his September 28 birthday with a big cake, there would be a lot of candles. He’d need a fan or a strong wind to help him put them out.While many people in China will remember Confucius on his special day, few people in the United States will give him a passing thought. It’s nothing personal. Most Americans don’t even remember the birthdays of theirown national heroes.But this doesn’t mean that Americans don’t care about Confucius. In many ways he has become a bridge that foreigners must cross if they want to reach a deeper understanding of China.In the past two decades, the Chinese studies programs have gained huge popularity in Western universities. More recently, the Chinese government has set up Confucius Institutes in more than 80 countries. These schools teach both Chinese language and culture. The main courses of Chinese culture usually include Chinese art, history and philosophy(哲学). Some social scientists suggest that Westerners should take advantage of the ancient Chinese wisdom to make up for the drawbacks(缺点) of Western philosophy. Students in the United States, at the same time, are racing to learn Chinese. So they will be ready for life in a world where China is an equal power with the United States. Businessmen who hope to make money in China are reading books about Confucius to understand their Chinese customers.So the old thinker’s ideas are still alive and well.Today China attracts the West more than ever, and it will need more teachers to introduce Confucius and Chinese culture to the West.As for the old thinker, he will not soon be forgotten by people in the West, even if his birthday is.【1】The opening paragraph is mainly intended to ________.A．provide some key facts about ConfuciusB．attract the readers’ interest in the subjectC．show great respect for the ancient thinkerD．prove the popularity of modern birthday celebrations【2】We can learn from Paragraph 4 that American students ________.A．have a great interest in studying ChineseB．take an active part in Chinese competitionsC．try to get high scores in Chinese examsD．fight for a chance to learn Chinese【3】What is the best title for the passage?A．Forgotten Wisdom in AmericaB．Huge Fans of the Chinese LanguageC．Old Thinker with a Big FutureD．Chinese Culture for Westerners【4】The passage is likely to appear in ________.A．a newspaper B．a history paperC．a biography D．a philosophy textbook4.Blind imitation is self-destruction. To those who do not recognize their unique worth, imitation appears attractive: to those who know their strength, imitation is unacceptable.In the early stages of skill or character development, imitation is helpful. When I first learned to cook, I used recipes and turned out some tasty dishes. But soon I grew bored. Why follow someone else’s way of cooking when I could create my own? Imitating role models is like using training wheels on a child’s bicycle; they help yo u get going, but once you find your own balance, you fly faster and farther without relying on them.In daily life, imitation can hurt us if we subconsciously(下意识地) hold poor role models. If, as a child, you observed people whose lives were bad, you may have accepted their fear and pain as normal and gone on to follow what they did. If you do not make strong choices for yourself, you will get the results of the weak choicesof others.In the field of entertainment, our culture glorifies celebrities. Those stars look great on screen. But when they step off screen, their personal lives may be disastrous. If you are going to follow someone, focus on their talent, not their bad character or unacceptable behaviors.Blessed is the person willing to act on their sudden desire to create something unique. Think of the movies, books, teachers, and friends that have affected you most deeply. They touched you because their creations were motivated by inspiration, not desperation. The world is changed not by those who do what has been done before them, but by those who do what has been done inside them. Creative people have an endless resource of ideas.The problem a creator faces is not running out of material; it is what to do with the material knocking at the door of imagination.Study your role models, accept the gifts they have given, and leave behind what does not server. Then you can say, “I stand on the shoulders of my ancestors’ tragedies and stories, and know that they are cheering me on.”【1】To avoid the bad result of imitation, we should ________.A．forget daily fear and pain B．ask others for decisionsC．choose the right example D．stay away from stars【2】According to the author, the world moves on because of those who are ________.A．desperate to insurance others with their knowledgeB．willing to accept others’ ideasC．eager to discover what their ancestors didD．ready to turn their original ideas into reality【3】What is the author’s purpose in writing this passage?A．To highlight the importance of creatively.B．To criticize the characters of role models.C．To compare imitation with creation.D．To explain the meaning of success.二、其他Four Habits to Help You SucceedWe all want to succeed, whether it’s in losing weight or learning the guitar. For those who have tried and failed, success seems difficult to understand. Why does one person succeed where another person fails? 【1】1. Identify your core values.Finding your core values is in line with creating inner motivation.【2】Pick a handful of things and actually write them down. Remind yourself of your values every day, and reflect on whether you are honoring those values through your work.2. Pick a goal and focus on it.Choose one goal to start something large enough that will give you a sense of achievement, while adjusting well to your core values. Focus is key here.【3】If you perform many tasks at a time, you might never complete your projects because they will take far too long.3. Set a deadline for success.Set a date for success. Identify when you hope to achieve your goal.【4】By setting a time limit, you are making the process more real.4.【5】Failure can’t be avoided when you take risks. By its very definition, the desire to succeed means you are risking failure. Many people tend to give up far too early. Don’t fall into this trap! Remember your mindset earlier. Know it will happen. A failure is merely you working out the details, and learni ng what works and what doesn’t. Use failure. Treat it as a good thing, and move on!A．Stick to your goal.B．Make the right decision.C．I’ve made a list of four habits to help you set goals and achieve them.D．Sit and reflect on what you value most.E. Keep it realistic, while not giving you too much time.F. The more focused you are on one goal, the higher chance you have of success.G. Push yourself to be courageous, and take that next step.三、完形填空I often read of incidents of misunderstanding or c onflict. I’m left ______. Why do these people create mistrust and problems, especially with those from other _______?I was growing up in Kuala Lumpur in the early 1960s, ______children from different races and religions played and studied _______in harmon y. At that time my family lived a stone’s________from Ismail’s. And no one was bothered that Ismail was a Malay Muslim and I was an Indian Hindu—we just ______our differences.

Unexpectedly! It was Ismail! Even after two ________we still recognized each other.

With their reputation attracting some of the brightest students from around the globe, the heart of New England is young, energetic and active.Best spotsThe Fenway area — home of the Boston Red Sox baseball team — attracts students from nearby schools. On game days, the neighbo rhood’s many sports bars are packed with college students.The Harvard Square is also a popular gathering spot for Harvard and MIT students, with several restaurants serving up affordable and tasty food.Student activitiesBoston’s most popular college events are the universities’ annual music festivals — like Yardfest at Harvard and Spring Fling at Tufts University — during which big-name stars perform free concerts before the spring semester ends.The Berklee College of Music, which attracts top international talent and counts the band Passion Pit among its alumni (男校友), often organizes free student performances in such picture-perfect locations as the Boston Harbor National Park.

After starting a wolf club in second grade, Alyssa learned all she could about her favorite animals. Today, she gives presentations about protecting wolves at libraries and schools —she’s even spoken at a university. In fact, she’s become such a wolf expert that she was appointed as the first junior advisor to the National Wolfwatcher Coalition.When she’s not teaching others about wolves, Alyssa can be found volunteering at her local animal shelter, taking care of dogs and cats. She’s also trained as a citizen scientist for Frog Watch USA. In short, Alyssa Grayson proves that you are never too young to make a difference for animals.When asked how she got interested in saving wolves, Alyssa says, “I’ve loved wolves since I saw them in a movie when I was 2 or 3 years old. Then one day I saw a commercial about wolf hunting. I asked my mother why people do this, and she told me because people don’t like wolves. I decided from then that I wanted to save wolves.”Today, wolves are hunted, trapped, or poisoned. Hunters chase wolves for miles in an airplane until the wolves are too exhausted to run anymore. Then the y shoot them. The animal doesn’t have a chance to escape. Animals are also trapped for their fur. They are left to suffer in a trap with no food, water, or shelter. Alyssa thinks the fur looks better on the animal in the wild, where it’s meant to be, than on a human.Alyssa believes wolves are important to our worlds. She says, “Wolves are an apex predator, which means they are at the top of the food chain. Removing them from the ecosystem is a big mistake. The ecosystem is like a chain of dominoes (多米诺骨牌)—with the apex predator as the one in front. If you were to knock down that domino, the rest of the chain would go down too.”People usually think of “the Big Bad Wolf” when they hear about wolves. However, Alyssa says, “If they would base their thoughts on facts, not fairy tales, we wouldn’t have people wanting to kill wolves.”【1】Alyssa is known as “wolf girl” at her school because .A．she keeps wolves as petsB．she was raised by wolvesC．she does a lot to protect wolvesD．she started a wolf club at her school【2】According to the first and second paragraphs, Alyssa .A．gained knowledge about wolves at librariesB．cares about other animals besides wolvesC．started to give presentations since second gradeD．is the first junior citizen scientist for Frog Watch USA【3】Paragraph four is mainly about .A．why wolves are killedB．why wolves are trappedC．the tools used to hunt wolvesD．how wolves are treated【4】From the last paragraph we can infer that Alyssa .A．doesn’t need fairy talesB．doesn’t believe in fairy talesC．encourages people to find out the facts about wolvesD．believes that more people will work to save wolves3.The value of the U.S. penny has been dropping for years. Many countries have stopped using pennies. Is it time for the U.S. to do the same?Those who think we should keep the U.S. penny offer the following arguments to support their positions:Prices will increase. If we get rid of the penny, everything will have to be rounded to the nickel (五分硬币), costing us more for everything we buy.Charities need pennies. There are thousands of small charities that depend on pennies to bring in donations. People think nothing of pouring out their old penny jars to support charity, but they won’t part with nickels soeasily.Nickels cost even more to make. If we get rid of the penny, we will need more nickels in circulation. Nickels cost 7.7 cents to make, 2.7 cents over face value, as opposed to 0.26 cents over face value to make a penny. Since the penny costs 0.26 more than face value to make, the Mint (铸币厂) can make 5 pennies and still lose less money than making 1 nickel.People who want to retire the penny also have some persuasive arguments, including these:Pennies waste time. The average American wastes 2.4 hours a year handling pennies, or waiting for people who handle them. This statistics is the result of collecting a number of penny-handling related events, including the 30-second period we sometimes spend waiting for someone who just has to dig through their pockets or purse to find that last cent so they can pay for something with exact change (probably so they don’t get stuck with any more pennies).Making pe nnies wastes taxpayers’ money. It costs the U.S. Mint 1.26 cents to make each 1 cent coin, meaning that taxpayers are losing 0.26 of a cent for each one of the 7.4 billion pennies the Mint produces each year. History will repeat itself. In 1857, the Mint stopped making the half-cent coin, partly because the cost of making it was considered to be no longer needed. Yet, commerce continued without any catastrophic effects. History has shown us that updating the monetary supply in countries where the currency (货币) is very stable has had little, if any, negative effect on the economy, or on people’s acceptance of the coinage.【1】According to people who want to keep the penny, getting rid of the penny .A．is good for ordinary consumersB．is especially bad for rich peopleC．will be convenient for themD．may lead to fewer donations to small charities【2】Why do pennies waste time?A．Because consumers don’t always have enough change.B．Because it takes time for people to get them from their pockets or purse.C．Because pennies are not easy to take.D．Because pennies are difficult to collect.【3】The underlined word “catastrophic” in the last paragraph can be replaced by “”.A．direct B．positiveC．important D．disastrous【4】The text is mainly developed by .A．giving examplesB．setting down general rulesC．comparing different opinionsD．following the natural time order4.Today we think of Abraham Lincoln as a great leader. What most of us don’t know is that he was a well-known humorist and storyteller in his day.Lincoln learned to tell jokes and stories from his father. When Lincoln became a lawyer, he used his jokes and stories to gain the good will of the jury (陪审团), and more than once his opposing lawyer would complain to the judge that Lincoln’s stories were irrelevant and distracting (转移、分心) to the jury. The trouble for them was that Judge David Davis loved Lincoln’s jokes more than anyone else in the court room.As a politician, Lincoln made excellent use of his humorous stories. His long time political opponent Stephen A. Douglas complained that “Nothing else — not any of his arguments or any of his replies to my questions —disturbs me. But when he begins to tell a story, I feel that I am to be overmatched.” More than once Douglas and other political opponents of Lincoln’s saw their well presented arguments forgotten by the audience after Lincoln followed up their speeches with a homely story.As the responsibilities of the office of President became greater and heavier, Lincoln used humor to find relief. He wanted to reduce the stresses in himself and those around him. One of Lincoln’s neighbors told that one day, he saw Lincoln walking past with two young shouting boys. “What’s the matter, Mr. Lincoln?” the neighbor asked.“The same thing that’s the matter with the whole world,” Lincoln answered. “I have three walnuts, and each one of them wants two of them.”One cannot truly appreciate Lincoln without understanding his humorous side. He used his jokes and stories both for the purpose of winning over his audience and relieving the pressure he experienced as President during the terrible Civil War.【1】When Lincoln was a lawyer, what was his purpose of telling jokes and stories?A．He wanted to satisfy the judge’s desire for jokes.B．He wanted to distract his opposing lawyer.C．He wanted to relieve his pressure.D．He wanted to impress the jury.【2】What might be Do uglas’ attitude towards Lincoln’s humorous stories?A．Appreciative.B．Annoyed.C．Concerned.D．Surprised.【3】What’s the purpose of the text?A．To educate.B．To inform.C．To persuade.D．To entertain.二、其他How to drive greenerBuying green can produce great benefits and so can small changes in your driving behavior. 【1】1. Avoid aggressive driving. Sudden starts and aggressive driving can waste your gas.【2】That’s because just one second of high-powered driving can produce the same level of CO as 30 minutes of normal driving.2.【3】 A lot of us like to push the speedometer up to 75 miles per hour on the highway. However, slowing down to 65 miles per hour can increase your fuel economy by up to 10 percent and reduce the amount of pollution coming from your car.3. Plan ahead. When possible, plan your trips to avoid the stop-and-go of rush hour. And remember to pack all of your tasks into one trip since a warmed-up engine produces fewer emissions (排放物).4. Pay attention at the gas station. Don’t overfill your gas tank or try to top it off because spilled (溢出) gas changes into mixture of fog and smoke and can pollute groundwater. When you are finished filling up, be sure you tighten your gas cap.【4】5. Park smart. Parking your car in the shade not only helps you avoid feeling very hot in your car, but it helps minimize evaporation (蒸发) of fuel.6.【5】 By walking, cycling or public transport, you will make a big difference for our planet. Leave your car at home just two days a week. And you will help cut greenhouse gas emissions by 1,500 pounds a year. A．Change the oil.B．Slow down.C．Leave your car at home.D．And this type of driving behavior adds to pollution.E. In this way you can save as much as 30 gallons a year.F. The following advice can help you save gas and contribute to the well-being of our planet.G. Parking in your garage when possible to cut down on summer heat and keep off frost in the winter.三、完形填空In elementary school, I was living with my parents and my brother in a rented apartment in New York City.

You can begin by changing your body language. Just the simple act of【6】 (pull) your shoulders back gives others the【7】 (impress) that you are a confident person. Next, look at the person you are talking to — keeping eye contact【8】 (show) confidence. Last, speak slowly. Research has proved that those who take time to speak slowly and 【9】 (clear) feel more self-confident. The added bonus is that they will actually be able to understand【10】 you are saying.五、短文改错假定英语课上老师要求同桌之间交换修改作文，请你修改你同桌写的以下作文，文中共有10处语言错误，每句中最多有两处。

One night, as Diaz stepped off the train and onto a nearly empty platform, a teenage boy approached and pulled out a knife.“He wanted my money, so I just gave him my wallet and told him, ‘Here you go ’” Diaz says.As the teen began to walk away, Diaz told him, “Hey, wait a minute. You forgot something. If you’re going to be robbing people for the rest of the night, you might a s well take my coat to keep you warm.”The robber looked at him puzzled, saying, “Why are you doing this?”Diaz replied, “If you’re willing to risk your freedom for a few dollars, then you must really need the money. I mean, all I wanted to do was get dinn er and if you really want to join me…..”Diaz says he and the teen went into a diner and sat in a booth.“The manager comes by, the dishwashers come by, the waiters come by to say hi,” Diaz says.The kid said, “You know everybody here. Do you own this place?”“No, I just eat here a lot,” Dias said. “But you’re even nice to the dishwasher,” he said.Diaz replied, “Well, haven’t you been taught you should be nice to everybody?”“Yea, but I didn’t think people actually behaved that way,” the teen said.When th e bill arrived, Diaz said, “You’re going to have to pay for this bill because you have my money and I can’t pay for this. So if you give me my wallet back, I’ll gladly treat you.”The teen returned it immediately. “I gave him $20…. I figure maybe it’ll help him.” Diaz says he asked for something in return--- the teen’s knife--- “and he gave it to me.”Afterwards, when Diaz told his mother what happened, she said, “You’re the type of kid that if someone asked you for the time, you gave them your watch.”“I figure, you know, if you treat people right, you can only hope that they treat you right. It’s as simple as it gets in this complicated world.”【1】What did Diaz do to the teen?A．He gave the teen a new wallet B．He treated the teen to dinnerC．He gave his coat to the teen D．He taught the teen a lesson【2】From the passage we can infer that the boy _______.A．expressed his gratitude for Diaz’s kindnessB．gave up the idea of robbing in the endC．wasn’t taught how to be nice to everybodyD．gave the knife to Diaz in return for his forgiveness【3】For what Diaz did, his mother showed an attitude of _______.A．complaint B．concern C．criticism D．praise【4】By telling the story of Diaz, the author intends to tell us ______.A．to keep calm in danger B．not to go out alone at nightC．to treat others kindly D．not to harm others on purpose2.Encouraging pupils to keep noise to a minimum should be a valuable component of all children’s education, according to new research.Dr. Helen Lees, from Stirling University’s school of education, says that “enforced（强制的）silence” is seen as a punishment and often acts to suppress children’s natural ability. But she says that teaching children about the benefits of “enforced silence”,--- deliberate stillness that gives them the opportunity to focus and reflect in a stress-free environment--- can have a significant effect on pupils’ concentration and behavior.It is the latest in a string of researches to establish a link between the classroom environment and pupils’ academic ability.A study almost a decade ago in London found that children’s exam results were cut by as much as a third if they were taught in noisy classrooms. Teaching unions have also called for a limit of 26℃ to be put on classroom temperatures because teachers and pupils struggle to work in hot conditions, and some educationalists claim that too much clutter（杂乱的东西）on classroom walls can prevent children from concentrating.Dr. Lees said, “When we take some research on school settings and put it all together, what we see is that education without silence does not make much sense. In areas of better learning outcomes, better self- confidence and well-being measures, enforced silence in a person’s life and an individual’s educati on is shown throughout the relevant research to be a benefit.”Dozens of schools across Britain have already introduced periods of “reflective silence” into the timetable.Kevin Hogston, head of Sheringdale Primary, south London, has just introduced a minu te’s silence at the start of twice-weekly meetings in which children are taught breathing techniques and encouraged to reflect. The school plans to introduce it into classrooms every day.【1】According to Dr. Helen Lees, “enforced silence” ＿＿A．is an effective way of punishmentB．does not make much sense in classC．can improve pupils’ confidenceD．makes pupils more creative【2】The underlined word, “suppress”, in the second paragraph probably means “_________”.A．prevent B．improve C．apply D．reveal【3】What can be inferred from the research on school settings?A．Students are more active if taught in noisy classrooms.B．Silence makes a great difference to pupils.C．Clutter on the walls can help students concentrate.D．Most schools are not satisfactory in terms of classroom temperatures.【4】 What would be the best title for the text?A．Arranging classroom settings benefits studiesB．Achieving silence is beneficial for peopleC．Using enforced silence is effective punishmentD．Keeping quiet in class improves academic performance3.The Gullah people in the southern US have honored their culture for more than 100 years. Living mainly on the Sea Islands and coastal areas of South Carolina, Georgia and Floride, the Gullah people, an African-American group, have a rich culture including their own language. It is a Creole language created by slaves who came to the US from the West Africa in the 1800s. It combines West African languages with English.For many years efforts have been made to save the Gullah language. One project began in 1979. Its goal was to translate the New Testament part of the Bible into Gullah. Experts say that it was a difficult process because Gullah is not a written language. It is a spoken language only.A team of Gullah speakers began working on the translation to make the Bible easier to understand for those who spoke Gullah as their main language. The Gullah version is called De Nyew Testament. It is written in English on one side of the page, and next to it, there is a Gullah translation. De Nyew Testament was published by the American Bible Society. The project also received help from the Summer Institute of Linguistics, Wycliffe Bible Translators, the United Bible Societies and the Penn CentreExperts believe that the translated Bible is a major step towards sav ing the Gullah language and traditions. “This is more than a Bible translation,” says Robert Hodgson, at the American Bible Society. “De Nyew Testament raises the Gullah language and culture to a new level.” Ardell Greene is a member of the translation tea m. She calls the book “a treasure”. She says that the Gullah version of the Bible will be read in churches and will help young people keep the Gullah language alive.【1】According to the passage, De Nyew Testament can be best seen as _______.A．a good version of the BibleB．something difficult to understandC．a spoken form of the Gullah languageD．the effort to save the Gullah language【2】Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage?A．Gullah communities can be found in the southern US.B．Gullah is influenced by both English and West African languages.C．De Nyew Testament is a complete Bible translation.D．Ardell Greene thinks highly of De Nyew Testament.【3】What does this passage mainly focus on?A．Efforts to save the Gullah language.B．Different versions of the Bible.C．The history of the Gullah people.D．The culture of the Gullah people.4.If you haven’t heard or seen anything about Road Rage in the last few months, you’ve probably been avoi ding the media. There have been countless stories about this new and scary phenomenon, considered a type of aggressive driving. You have most likely encountered aggressive driving or Road Rage recently if you drive at all. While drunk driving remains a critical problem, the facts about aggressive driving are surely as disturbing. For instance, according to the National Highway Transportation Safety Association, 41,907 people died on the highway last year. Of those deaths, the agency estimates that about two-thirds were caused at least in part by aggressive driving behavior.Why is this phenomenon occurring more than ever now, and why is it something that seemed almost nonexistent a few short years ago? Experts have several theories, and all are probably partially correct. One suggestion is sheer overcrowding. In the last decade, the number of cars on the roads has increased by more than 11 percent, and the number of miles driven has increased by 35 percent. However, the number of new road miles has only increased by 1 percent. That means more cars in the same amount of space; and the problem is magnified in urban areas. Also, people have less time and more things to do. With people working and trying to fit extra chores and activities into the day, stress levels have never been higher. Stress creates anxiety, which leads to short tempers. These factors, when combined in certain situations, can spell Road Rage.You may think you are the last person who would drive aggressively, but you might be surprised. For instance, have you ever yelled out loud at a slower driver, sounded the horn long and hard an another car, or sped up to keep another driver from passing? If you recognize yourself in any of these situations, watch out!Whether you are getting angry at other drivers, or another driver is visibly upset with you, there are things you can do to avoid any major conflict. If you are easily influenced by Road Rage, the key is to discharge your emotion in a healthy way. If you are the target of another driver’s rage, do everything possible to get away from the other driver safely, including avoiding eye contact and getting out of their way.【1】The first sentence in Para. 1 implies that ______. A．onemaybeangeredbymediareportsandwantstoavoidthemB．themediacoinedtheterm“RoadRage”onlyafewmonthsago C．RoadRagehasreceivedmuchmediacoverageinthelastfewmonths D．peoplenotinterestedinthemediaknowlittleaboutrecenthappenings【2】The underlined word “spell” in Para. 3 means ________.A．relieve B．cause C．spread D．prevent【3】Which of the following characterizes aggressive driving?A．Talking while driving.B．Driving at high speed.C．Sounding the horn when passing.D．Shouting at another driver.【4】The last paragraph is intended to _________.A．tellpeoplehowtodealwithRoadRageB．informpeoplehowaggressivedriverscouldbeC．showpeoplehowtocontrolthemselveswhenangryD．warnpeopleagainsteyecontactwithanotherdriver四、其他Many solutions we seek with regard to achieving sustainability(可持续性) are within our reach. That’s the lesson our school’s Environment Club has learned over the past two years. We’ve reduced the amount of our waste at our school by 25 per cent. ___【1】___ We have the evidence we need to suggest we are making a difference. If you are interested in leading your school on a similar journey of change, here are some tips.__【2】___Examine the garbage can to find out how much of your school’s garbage could be picked out from the waste stream and be reused.

You may reduce your waste by as much as 50 percent. Be sure to talk with your teachers and your cafeteria staff to get them onside.Share your success.Let your community know what you’ve accomplished. __【4】__ Ask your teachers if you can talk to their classes, let your parent group know what you’re doing, and present a report to the president of your school.__【5】___Whether you spend a few moments in a quiet place or the whole day walking along a beautiful beach, time outdoors will remind you why the work you do for the environment is so worthwhile.A．Dig in.B．Reward yourself.C．Do outdoor activities.D．They’ll feel proud of you.E. We need to go further, and we will.F. Invite your friends to join your cause.G. Make sure every classroom has dustbins for recycling.五、短文改错短文改错It was my 18th birthday yesterday.

AYou must know what BYD stands for? Yes, Build Your Dream. Have you built your dream and spare no effort to achieve it? Here is an inspiring story from Eddie Arcaro dreamed of becoming the world’s greatest jockey（赛马骑师）. But after watching him ride a horse for five minutes, reality reflected a rough contradiction. He was awkward and clumsy, and in his early years in the saddle he couldn’t do one thing right.In his first 100 races he never even came close to winning. Still, he got right back on and trained again. Even as a schoolboy, Arcaro had set his own track in life. Because he was only a little over five feet tall (1.5 meters) and weighed barely 80 pounds (36kg), the other students picked on him. So he skipped school, hanging out at the local race track where a trainer let him ride horses.His father reluctantly agreed to let him pursue a career as a jockey. The trainer had told him so. “Send him back to school,”he said. “He’ll never be a rider.”In spite of that, Arcaro was determined not just to ride, but to become the world’s greatest jockey. But first someone would have to give him a chance.He finally got to ride in a real race. Before it was over, he’d lost his whip and his cap and had almost fallen off the saddle. By the time he finished the race, the other horses were on their way to the stables（马厩）. He’d come in dead last. Nevertheless, Arcaro went from track to track, looking for any opportunity to ride. Finally, a trainer who pitied him took him in and gave him a chance. One hundred losses later, he was still giving him chances. He saw something in this unlucky jockey, something he couldn’t define.There were many brushes with death and several broken bones. Every time he would return to the saddle. Then Arcaro began to win. In thirty years of riding, he won 4, 779 races, becoming the only jockey in history to win the Kentucky Derby five times. By the time he retired in 1962 he was a millionaire and a legend in his ownlifetime.21.

Once, in an interview with his son, he said it was difficult to watch a sci-fi moviewith his dad, because Armstrong would keep complaining about how unrealistic theirvision of space were.In fact, even the Oscar-winning Gravity, described as “the most realistic space movie ever” by Forbes, is not 100 percent faithful to reality. Here is part of a former NASA astronaut – Garrett Reisman’s movie review.On the whole, it’s a great movie. But the question that most people want meto answer is how realistic it was.In general, sci-fi movies are usually far-fetched. So it’s amazing how many things Gravity gets right. The danger of space debris（残骸）is very real. Thereare currently more than 600,000 pieces of debris larger than 1 cm orbiting Earthand they pose a great risk to spacecrafts. However, in the movie, astronauts cansee the debris coming and quickly seek shelter. In reality, debris can travel at20 times the speed of sound, which means that if you can see it, it’s already toolate to hide.Another huge error was –there was absolutely no reason for the male astronaut Matt Kowalski to sacrifice himself!! He lets go of the hand of his female partner, Ryan Stone, and drifts away into space. In reality, Kowalski wouldn’t have flown away when Stone let go of his hand. Instead, he would have just stayed floating in that spot.In the movie, Stone travels from the Hubble Telescope to the International Space Station and then to the Chinese Space Station Tiangong, where she finds an escape vehicle to take her back to Earth. But this is actually the biggest error in the movie. The Hubble, the International Space Station and a Chinese space station are not neighbors. Getting from one to the other requires so much energy that not even space shuttles had enough fuel to do it. In addition, space stations travel in different orbits, and they travel quickly. And it would be physically impossible to get from one to the other.There are other, more minor details that are just unrealistic. For example, Stone doesn’t wear a cooling garment（降温服）under her spacesuit to protect herself from the heat in space.. . . Yes, I could go on and on about all the things Gravity got wrong. But who cares? All of these inaccuracies were done to help advance the plot or to add drama to the films. This is entertainment, not a documentary.28. The purpose of the first paragraph is to _______________.A. introduce the famous American astronaut Neil ArmstrongB. show that sci-fi movies are often considered unrealistic by astronautsC. introduce why Gravity is the most realistic space movie everD. tell people not to believe everything they see in sci-fi movies29. The underlined word “far-fetched”can best be replaced by “_______________”.A. unlikely to be trueB. difficult to understandC. easy to mislead peopleD. unpopular with astronauts30. Which of the following situations would agree with the laws of physics in space according to the passage?A. Astronauts collecting flying space debrisB. Astronauts wearing only T-shirts under their spacesuitsC. Astronauts staying afloat where they are after they part with a spaceshipD. Astronauts performing a space walk from the Hubble Telescope to the International Space Station31. We can infer from the passage that ___________________.A. Garrett Reisman doesn’t think highly of the movie GravityB. directors of sci-fi movies usually don’t care much about minor detailsC. the shooting of space documentaries and sci-fi movies involve totally different skillsD. Garrett Reisman believes that sci-fi movies don’t need to be totally faithful to realityDIn 1958, Jean Berko Gleason, an American psycholinguist, created an experimentcalled the Wug Test. It investigated how children learn to make plural forms of nouns in English like cats, dogs, and horses. The children were shown imaginary words in the singular and asked to change the word into their plural forms. There are three ways of pronouncing the “s” that comes after plural nouns in English; it can be pronounced like /z/, /s/, or /iz/. The most common sound is the /z/ sound like in dogs, then the /s/ sound like in cats, then the /iz/ sound like horses.In the experiment, the child was presented with a picture of some kind of pretend creature. He or she was told that the creature was a “wug”. The experimenter said, “This is a wug.”Another card was pulled out with another wug, and the experimenter said, “Now there are two of them. These are two . . .?” Children who understood the proper use of plural form for nouns ending with a “g” would say, “They are two wugs,” with a /z/ sound. Very young children were often confused by this and said “Two wug.” Generally, children who were 4 years or older got the question right. The researchers also carried out several other experiments to create plural forms ending with the /s/ sound and with the /iz/ sound and found that children usually learned these rules later in their lives because they are not as common as the /z/ sound plurals.The Wug Test also included questions that explored a child’s understanding of the proper use of verbs and the suing of the possessive, such as “This is Rob’s bike.” Possessives are parts of grammar that show ownership. Also, the children were prompted to use the “-er”suffix （后缀）of a noun to demonstrate a person’s job, such as someone who drives is a “driver”. Again, the children were given a nonsense word, this time “zib”. The researcher asked the child, “A man who ‘zibs’is a . . .?”Some young children replied “zibber”, but many young children replied “zibman”.The Wug Test demonstrated that even very young children have established grammatical systems that allow them to make plurals, possessive, and other forms of words that they have never heard before. This test was the first of its kind to prove that children learn their language akills naturally without needing to be taught grammar rules.32. The author introduces Jean Berko Gleason as a psycholinguist in order to _________________.A. explain why she used imaginary words for the experimentB. show that she was interested in how the mind learns languageC. suggest that she studied the language of the mentally illD. state that she illustrated the pictures used in the experiment33. The underlined word “pretend” is closest in meaning to _______________.A. artificialB. domesticC. incorrectD. living34. According to the passage, which of the following statements is TRUE about the Wug Test?A. It was an experiment to show that children must be taught the rules of languageB. It investigated whether children could use English verbs to show ownershipC. It examined how children learned complex language rules ( like forming plurals )D. It proved that children acquire /z/-sound possessives before /s/-sound ones35. The passage probably comes from ___________________.A. a book reviewB. an official documentaryC. a biography of Jean Berko GleasonD. a language learning journal 第二节（共5小题；每小题3分，满分15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，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
