The years linking the first two periods are marked by a lack of information about Shakespeare, and are often referred to as the “dark years”.Shakespeare probably left school at 15, and took some sorts of jobs, especially since this was the period of his father’s financial difficulty. A great number of references in his plays suggest that William may have in fact worked for his father, thus gaining specialized knowledge.At some point during the “dark years”, Shakespea re began his career with a London theatrical company —perhaps in 1589 —for he was already an actor and playwright in 1592. Shakespeare apparently wrote and acted for Pembroke’s Men, as well as a lot of others, in particular Strange’s Men, which later became the Chamberlain’s Men.When, in 1592, the theaters were closed for about two years, due to a terrible disease. Shakespeare turned to writing book-length poetry. Most notable were Venus and Adonis and The Rape of Lucrece, both of which have been translated into many languages and even been included in students’textbooks. During this same period, Shakespeare was writing his sonnets (十四行诗), which are more likely signs of thetim e’s fashion rather than actual love poems detailing any particular relationship. He returned to play writing when theater reopened in 1594, and published no more poetry. His sonnets were published without his permission in 1609, shortly before his retirement. His final play was Henry VIII, two years before his death in 1616.（）61. Why did Shakespeare take some sorts of jobs at the age of 15 and didn’t go on studying?A.Because he wanted to be an actor in London.B. Because he liked his job more than studying.C. Because his family was badly off at that time.D. Because he wanted to open his own company.（）62 Which of the following words can take the place of the underlined word “notable” in the last paragraph?A.famousB. fashionableC. longD. educational（）63. According to the passage, which of the following is NOT true?A. Shakespeare didn’t write any plays between1592 and1594.B. Shakespeare published his sonnets in 1609.C. After writing Henry VIII, Shakespeare wrote nothing.D. Shakespeare’s sonnets were written between 1592 and 1594.BThe porter(搬运工人) brings your bags to your room and helpfully explains all you want to know. The n he points to the phone and says: “If there's anything else you need, just call.” All this time you have been thinking one thing: “How much should I tip（付小费）him?” To make your next trip a little easier, here's a guide to tipping across some Asian countries.BangkokIn general, the more Westernized (西方化的)the place is, the more likely you will be expected to leave a tip. Some top-end restaurants will add a 10% service charge to the bill. If not, waiters will appreciate you tacking on（附加）the 10% yourself. However, if you're eating at a lower-end（低档的）restaurant a tip is not necessary. If you're staying at one of Bangkok's many five-star hotels, expect to tip the porter 20 to 50 baht （泰国货币单位）, depending on how many bags you have. Taxis are now metered in Bangkok. Local custom is to round the fare（车费）up to the nearest five baht.Hong KongTipping is customary in this money-mad metropolis（大都市）. Most restaurants add a 10% service charge to the bill, but the extra money often ends up in the pocket of the owner. If the service is good, add another 10% to the bill, up to HK $100 in an especially nice restaurant. For HK $10 hotel porters should do it at all but the nicest hotels where a new HK $20 bill may be more acceptable. When in a taxi, round up（凑整数）to the nearest dollar.Kuala LumpurTipping in Malaysia is limited to the expensive Westernized hotels, which often add a 10% service charge to your meal or hotel room. If you are at a hotel restaurant, expect a 10% service charge. But at local restaurants, there's no need to add a tip. At five-star hotels, one or two ringgit（马来西亚货币单位）will content a porter. Atlower-end buildings don't feel you have to tip. Like Bangkok, many taxis are now metered so you can just round up to the nearest ringgit.SeoulTipping is not part of Korean culture, although it has become a matter of course in international hotels where a 10% service charge is often added. If you're at a Korean barbecue joint（烧烤处）, there's no need to add anything extra. But a nice Italian restaurant may require a 10% contribution. If you're at a top-end hotel, so expect to pay 500～1,000 won per bag. Taxi drivers don't accept a tip. Keep the change for yourself.（）64. In which of the following cities is it unnecessary to tipthe taxi-drivers?A. Bangkok.B. Seoul.C. Kuala Lumpur.D.Hong Kong.（）65. Which of the following is NOT the unit of money?A..Won.B. Baht.C. ChargeD. Ringgit.（）66. From the text, we can infer tipping comes from _______.A. Hong KongB.BangkokC. Asian countriesD. the west（）67. If you stay at a five-star hotel in Kuala Lumpur, how much willyou pay the porter at least?A. 10% of service charge.B. half a ringgitC. one ringgitD.two ringgit.CMany people influenced various aspects of my life, based on their personal characteristics, accomplishments and values. I have been fortunate to have had numerous teachers and professors who I respect for their patience and intelligence. There are artists that have inspired me by their natural talents and original creativity. I value many political leaders, who have inspired me by their contributions to society, and their ability to change our futures. But of all the people I have known in my life, the person I admire most is my father.As the youngest girl in my family, I always considered myself to be “Daddy's little girl”. While I grew up, it always made me sad to see so many of my friends and neighbors without a father or father-like figure around. This helped me appreciate how my father always takes an interest in his children's lives. In every aspect of my life my father continuously pushes me to excel(优秀）, so I could accomplish my work outstandingly among my people. Whenever I feel like giving up, or have a question or a concern, I know I can always call on him for advice. From him I have also learned that sometimes you have to put others' needs ahead of your own, but you should make sure you are not taken advantage of by others. His strength seems to be unbreakable during hard times, and he is extremely determined to accomplish anything he sets his mind on, no matter how tiny it is. I highly respect him for how he stands up for what he believes in, and will never back down. I have always admired his open mind, compassion(同情) for people, and sense of understanding. He is a very reserved(保守的) man, but to everybody's surprise, he has a great sense of humor, and always knows how to put a smile on the faces of his wife, his children and his friends.Living in his affection(爱) and instruction, I am very proud of my father. He alsoprofesses(声称) how proud he is of his children, and is still there to support us in whatever we are involved in.（）68. What is the best title for the passage?A. How my father loved meB. My father--the person I admire mostC. I am the apple of my father's eyeD. My father—the one who influenced me most （）69. Which of the following could not be used to describe the author's father?A. Considerate and humorous.B. Affectionate and open-minded.C. Learned and fashionable.D. Energetic and helpful.（）70. According to the underlined part, the father was telling the author to .A. try to be good to those who were worth making friends withB. try to take advantage of those who were friendly to herC. think about others and help them, so that she could make them serve herD. think about others and help them, but not to be made use of in a negative way （）71. What can we infer about the author?A. She appreciated her father because he solved all the problems for her.B. She considered her father humorous and was often made to laugh by him.C. She had compassion for the fatherless.D. She was outstanding in work because her father pushed her hard.DReading is the key to success in all school subjects. With a bit of creativity, you can help your child enjoy reading more, and encourage him to do more!Buy or borrow a lot of “fun” books. Choose books that are slightly below his level of reading ability. Don’t forget what your child likes to do when choosing books for him. Don’t comment about the books. Simply l eave the books lying on the table where your child is sure to see them. Computer games are not as harmful as most parents usually think them to be. Instead, you should take advantage of your child’s love of computer games to purchase those that require a lot of reading and avoid those that are simply computerized video games.Buy your child a bedside reading lamp, or a tiny book light. Tell him that from now on, he must be in bed by a specific time (say 8:30) and that he can either sleep or read. Most kids will do anything else rather than go to sleep, so there’s a chance you’ll create a new bedtime reading habit.Many children will read when they are sitting alone having a snack, or when they have a few minutes of unplanned free time. Put a box of books and magazines near the kitchen table so that reading material is accessible.Often, once children learn to read independently, parents stop reading to them. This change of routine causes great sadness to a child who has come to love falling asleep as you read. Even a teenager will enjoy being read to if you pick books that interest him. Select books together, and make sure they’re ones you enjoy as well, so your enjoyment will come through as you read to them.（）72. To make children become interested in reading, parentsshould _______.A. tell them what they can learn from these booksB.choose the easiest books for them to readC. choose books based on their interestD. always read books together with them（）73. Which of the following is NOT what parents are advised to do?A.Have reading material available.B.Pick the right computer games.C.Reduce children’s sleeping time.D. Read to children when possible （）74. What attitude do most parents hold towards children playing computer games?A. Supportive.B. .Neutral(中立的）C. Negative.D. Doubtful. （）75. The main idea of the passage is to ________.A. help children succeed in school subjectsB. give parents advice on how to educate childrenC. remind parents of the importance of readingD. teach parents how to encourage children to read第二卷（共四节，满分50分）第一节根据提示，写出单词的正确形式。

第Ⅰ卷AHave you ever been to the following places? If not, try to find a chance to visit them.Fez, MoroccoFez, about 240 miles northeast from Marrakech, a wonderful scene is taking root slowly. It started with immigrants building castles, and continues as hotels and restaurants. The biggest news is that the Hotel Sahrai is completed with a bar and 50 rooms, many overlooking a pool.Catskills, New YorkThe region that welcomed Jewish families in the 50s,hippies in the 60s,and soon, casino gamblers（赌博者）. Many stylish B&Bs have opened. Among them are the Hotel Dylan in Woodstock, the Arnold House in Livingston Manor, with its bar and diminutive spa（水疗中心）.So now is the time to enjoy fly-fishing, hiking and other peaceful experiences.Rotterdam, NetherlandsThe constantly unfolding city center in Rotterdam has become one amazing explosion of style, which surprised the tourists greatly. The latest attraction, and reason enough to visit, is the MVRDV-designed Markthal, an igloo（圆顶冰屋）-like horseshoe that houses 20 shops, nine restaurants and 228 apartments. It also happens to be Holland's largest artwork.Chengdu, ChinaFamous for its 1,600 pandas, most of which still live in the wild, Chengdu has introduced a 72-hour no-visa policy that makes it easier for Americans to drop in on one of the city's three major panda research facilities. But it's worth sticking around longer to experience what's doing in Chengdu, a city on the rise. One of the shiniestattractions is New Century Global Centre, the world's largest building, complete with an artificial beach.21.What can a tourist do in Catskills?A. Go fishing and hiking.B. Design igloos with tourists.C. play with the pandas in the wild.D. Join the local people in building castles.22.Which is Holland's largest artwork?A. The Hotel Sahrai.B.The Hotel Dylan.C.

A beautiful house, three healthy children and one more on the way, two cars, a couple of four-wheelers for entertainment—We really had it all and we loved it. Then, the market turned and my husband's job at a construction company was gone. The company was closing down forever.We both started looking for jobs right away, but there weren't any to be found. With each passing day we were getting increasingly worried and we continued to work together in order to pull our family through. The more we pulled together,the closer we got. I felt feelings of admiration for my husband that I hadn't felt for years.That's why it was so hard for me to watch him blame himself for our present situation. I continually asked him to stop but he seemed to want to punish himself for not having a job.Finally, one afternoon I pulled him aside and said, "We have four healthy children and each other. That's what's important. That makes you a rich man.""But what if we lose the house? They will hate me—you'll hate me," he replied.I smiled at him and put my hands on both sides of his face to make him look me in the eye."No matter where we live I will be happy—as long as I have you," I smiled again as I realized that I wasn't just saying that. In all the struggling together I had found that deep love for him that I had on the day we said "I do".I could see his shoulders and neck relaxed. He held me close and we were able to talk and plan and dream together in a way that we hadn't for quite some time. It was a turning point for us as a couple and a family.We are still struggling for our better life, but I consider us well-off because we have something that money can't buy and no one can take away from us.24.We know from the story that .A. they both found good jobs at lastB. her husband was out of work for his not working hardC. both of them felt anxious about their unemploymentD. they didn't love each other any longer after they got married25.By saying "The more we pulled together, the closer we got", the wife means .A. her husband worked harder for being closerB. they had closer affection as they struggled togetherC. their house was closer to the company than beforeD. they were closer to another employment as time went by26.What is their present life like?A. Hard but warm.B. Wealthy but annoying.C. Hard and disturbing.D. Comfortable and admiring.27.Which of the following might be the best title?A. Better Life ComesB. Hard Time GoesC. We Have It AllD. We Lose It AllCThe word "OK" is the most frequently spoken all-purpose expression on theplanet—and it's turning 176 years old on March 23,2015.The term was born during a 19th-century abbreviation（缩写）craze and went on to international fame with its own hand gesture.Last year, Henry Nass, a 64-year-old retired English teacher, a New Yorker had spent the last few weeks handing out cards championing "Global OK Day" in advance of the coming anniversary."No matter where people are from they use the word 'OK,' but they don't know where it comes from," says Nass. "The problem is because it's just, you know, OK."The word is OK, perhaps, but its history is definitely better than average. Late etymologist Allen Walker Read traced the two-letter word to 1839,when editors at the Boston Morning Post signed off on articles as “all correct” with a simp le word "OK".The word made it into print on March 23 of that year, during an article against a rival editor in Providence who had stated wrongly that a band of Bostonians heading to New York would pass through the Rhode Island capital."We said not a word about our team passing 'through the city' of Providence," the Morning Post reported."O.K.—all correct."The humor of the Providence-Boston joke has been lost to history—but the word OK took off from there, soon connoting（隐含）agreement, acceptance, averageness, quality or likability.By 1840,it served as a slogan for President Martin Van Buren's unsuccessful reelection campaign."Old Kinderhook is OK," posters stated, a reference to the eighth president's birthplace and his supporters’ belief in his satisfact ory performance.28.Why did Henry Nass hand out cards?A.

Then,in turn answeropen-ended questions with honest answers,instead of "Fine" or "OK"._38_However,in most cases people are flattered that you are listening to them and interested in their life.Try emulating（效仿）someone who is very open.Observe them in a social situation.Then,try to act as if you are them occasionally.Many open behaviors are learned,and not a natural part of personality._39_Avoid being a "know it all".Some people think advice is opening up,but it is unlikely to help you more open.

The best title for this passage would be ________.A. How Should You Learn?B. How to Learn BestC. Choose Your StyleD. Learning StylesBThink about the different ways that people use the wind. You can use it to fly a kite or to sail a boat. Wind is one of our cleanest and richest power sources, as well as one of the oldest. Evidence shows that windmills (风车) began to be used in ancient Iran back in the 7th century BC. They were first introduced to Europe during the 1100s, when armies returned from the Middle East with knowledge of using wind power.For many centuries, people used windmills to grind (磨碎) wheat into flour or pump water from deep underground. When electricity was discovered in the late 1800s, people living in remote (偏远的) areas began to use them to produce electricity. This allowed them to have electric lights and radio. However, by the 1940s when electricity was available (可利用的) to people in almost all areas of the United States, windmills were seldom used.During the 1970s, people started becoming concerned about the pollution that is created when coal and gas are burned to produce electricity. People also realized that the supply of coal and gas would not last forever. Then, wind was rediscovered, though it means higher costs. Today, there is a global movement to supply more and more of our electricity through the use of wind.5. From the text we know that windmills ________.A. were invented by European armiesB. used to supply power to radio in remote areasC. have a history of more than 2,800 yearsD. have rarely been used since electricity was discovered6. What was a new use for wind power in the late 19th century?A. Producing electricity.B. Sailing a boat.C. Grinding wheat into flour.D. Pumping water from ground.7. One of the reasons wind was rediscovered in the 1970s is that ________.A. the supply of coal and gas failed to meet needsB. it is one of the oldest power sourcesC. it was cheaper to create energy from windD. wind power is cleanerCI was born and raised in Minnesota, the USA, but as an adult I have mostly lived in Europe and Africa.I teach cross-cultural management at the International Business School near Paris. For the last 15 years, I’ve studied how people in different parts of the world build trust, communicate, and make decisions especially in the workplace.While traveling in Tokyo recently with Japanese colleague, I gave a short talk to a group of 20 managers. At the end, I asked whether there were any questions or comments. No hands went up, so I went to sit down. My colleague whispered to me, “I think there actually were some comments, Erin. Do you mind if I try?” I agreed, but I guessed it a waste of breath. He asked the group again, “Any comments or questions?”Still, no one raised a hand, but this time he looked very carefully at each person in the silent audience. Gesturing to one of them, he said,“Do you have something to add?” To my amazement, she responded “Yes, thank you.” and asked me a very interesting question. My colleague repeated this several times, looking directly at the audience and asking for more questions or comments.After the session, I asked my colleague, “How do you know that those people had questions?” He hesitated, not sure how to explain it, and then said, “It has to do with how bright their eyes are.”He continued, “In Japan,we don’t make as much direct eye contact as you do in the West. So when you asked if there were any comments, most people were not looking directly at you. But a few people in the group were looking right at you, and their eyes were bright. That indicates that they would be happy to have you call on them.”I thought to myself I would never have learned from my upbringing in Minnesota. Since then, I try to focus on understanding behavior in other cultures I encounter, and keep finding the bright eyes in the room.8. What can we conclude from the first paragraph?A. Life in Minnesota has made the author worn out.B. The author enjoys traveling around the world.C. Different cultures are kind of familiar to the author.D. The author may start his own business in the future.9. Hearing the colleague whispering, the author ________.A. went back to his seat and got seatedB. knew his colleague had some questionsC. owed a big debt of gratitude to his colleagueD. thought his colleague would get nowhere10. Where does the author’s colleague probably come from?A. Japan.B. America.C. Africa.D. France.11. Which is the proper title for the passage?A. Focusing on Behavior in Cultures.B. Looking at Another Culture in the Eye.C. Sharing Different Cultures in Tokyo.D. Admiring the Beauty in the Eye.DIf your job requires a lot of sitting, you could be putting your health at danger.The American Journal of Epidemiology (流行病学) did a study in 2010 on the correlation (相互联系) between sitting and an individual's physical health. In the study, 53,440 working men and 69,776 working women were surveyed on their time spent sitting. The subjects were all disease free when employed. The researchers identified 11,307 deaths in men and 7,923 deaths in women during the 14-year follow-up.The findings: Women who reported sitting for more than six hours per day had an approximately 40 higher all-cause death rate than those who reported less than three hours a day, and men had an approximately 20 higher death rate.Well, now's a fine time to get this information. But why didn't they tell me this years ago? I would have planned on taking a more active job instead of the sedentary (坐着的) job of an editor.So what can you do if you have to work for a living at a job that requires a lot of sitting? Here are some ideas:Take frequent breaks. It is recommended that workers vary activities, change their position, and take short breaks every 20 minutes to rest muscles and increase blood circulation. Get a standing desk. Some studies have shown that working from an upright position may be better for health. The serious fitness people can even purchase a treadmill (跑步机) desk. It only goes about one mile per hour. Have a walking meeting. If your group is kind of small, going for a walk while discussing topics is a good alternative.12. According to the text, the study in 2010 ________.A. found men reporting shorter sitting time than womenB. surveyed more men than women on their daily sitting timeC. identified fewer deaths in men than in women during the 14-year follow-upD. discovered correlation between sitting and physical health in men and in women13. We can infer from the text that the author did not recommend ________.A. using a standing deskB. resting one's musclesC. quitting sedentary jobsD. taking a walk while discussing14. What does the underlined word "subjects" in Paragraph 2 mean?A. Things being discussed.B. People being studied.C. Areas of knowledge being learned.D. Objects being painted.15. What is the main idea of the text?A. Your job could be killing you.B. Working out leads to health risks.C. Long-time sitting is positively associated with health.D. A study on sitting time and physical health was completed.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。

AThere is a bar in our town with the name “The White Horse”. It 's Mr. Webster's. Few people went to the bar last year, but thi ngs are quite different now.There was a picture of a white horse on the door of the bar. T hen a stranger came in one day, drank something, looked aro und the bar and then said to Mr. Webster "Few people come here. Take down the picture of the white horse and put on a pi cture of a black horse instead.""But the name of the bar is ‘The White Horse’.” Mr. Webster s aid."Yes, but do it." The man said. Then he went out of the bar.[] Mr. Webster went to an artist and said, "I want a picture of a b lack horse."The next day a picture of a black horse was on the door of the bar instead of that of the white horse. Soon after the door op ened, a man came in and said, "There is a mistake on the doo r of your bar, and the picture is different from the name." The man looked, sat down and drank something.Then another man came in and said the same, and then anot her and another. A lot of people came in and said "The pictur e on your door is wrong." And they all stopped and drank in M r. Webster's bar.1. The stranger told Mr. Webster to take down the picture of t he white horse because he knew ________.A. people would come in and tell the picture was different from the nameB. the picture of the white horse wasn't good for the barC. people would understand the picture different from the nam eD. a picture of a black horse showed good luck2. Mr. Webster agreed with the stranger ________.A. because he knew he was an artistB. though he didn't like the black horseC. though he wasn't ready to do it at firstD. because he want ed to change the picture3. More and more people came to the bar because ________.A. it had changed its nameB. they wanted to show t he mistakeC. the bar had a black horseD. the black horse was bet ter than the white one4. From the story we have learned that ________.A. if your business isn't good, you'd better change the name o r the pictureB. when you have difficulty, don't give upC. if you are in trouble, you should take others' ideasD. when a good name is given, it can cause successBWhy do people lie? A person lies to get himself out of a difficu lt or stressful situation or he lies to gain some benefits. So ho w should we go about recognizing those common indications(暗示) that someone is lying? Let's begin.Scratching(抓，挠) the neck，throat or mouth. When a person tells lies，he will put himself under pressure and this tends to heat up th e whole body. In order to release this heat，the liar will start to scratch his body to release the heat. Shaking of a leg or a foot. When telling a lie，a person controls his facial expression because he knows that the other person is looking at his face. However，when one is totally focused on controlling the upper body，the lower body will get out of control，which is an indication of lying.Eye direction. When a person is trying to answer a hard quest ion，usually the eyes will be looking to the left to recall things from his memory. When one cannot find the answer，the eyes will shift to look at the right which indicates that he is constructing something that is usually a lie.For more techniques to become a more effective communicator，please refer to other articles on this website.5.The writer wrote this passage to ________.A．tell us how to detect lies through body languageB．tell us the importance of detecting liesC．prove that lies can be easily detectedD．explain why people tell lies6．According to the writer，the liar will start to scratch his body because ________. A．he feels very nervous B．he is trying to calm down C．he wants to draw attention to himself D．he wants to rel ease heat7．Where is this passage probably taken from?A．A website B．A magazine. C．A newspaper D ．A letter.CMany pet owners see their pets as family members. However ，when they have to go away on business or for some other rea sons, they feel guilty about it and wish they could do somethin g for their deeply loved pets. The Pet Hotel is set up especiall y for this reason.What do we offer?The Pet Hotel offers pets large rooms and the latest equipme nt.

湛江一中2017—2018学年度第一学期第一次大考高二级英语科试卷考试时间：120分钟满分：150分第一部分：阅读理解（共两节，满分40分）第一节（共15小题；毎小题2分，满分30分）阅读下列四篇短文，从每小题后所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项，并在答題卡上将该选项涂黑。
A“Can’t hold a candle to” is a popular expression.When there wasn’t electricity, someone would have a servant light his way by holding a candle. The expression meant that the person who cannot hold a candle to you is not fit even to be your servant. Now it means such a person cannot compare or compete.Another expression is “hold your tongue.”It means to be still and not talk. “Hold your tongue” is not something you would tell a friend. But a parent or teacher might use the expression to quiet a noisy child.“Hold out”is an expression one hears often in sports reports and labor news. It means to refuse to play or work. Professional football and baseball players “hold out” if their team refuses to pay them what they think they are worth.The expression “hold up” has several different meanings. One is a robbery.A man with a gun may say, “This is a hold up.Gi ve me your money.”Another meaning is to delay. A driver who was held up by heavy traffic might be late for work. Another meaning is for a story to be considered true after an investigation. A story can hold up if it is proved true.“Hold on” is another ex pression, which means to wait or stop. As you leave for school, your brother may say, “Hold on,you forgot your book.” It is used to ask a telephone caller to wait and not hang up his telephone.Our final expression is “hold the line.” That means to keep a problem or situation from getting worse—to hold steady. For example, the president may say he will “hold the line on taxes.” He means there will be no increase in taxes.1.The expression “can’t hold a candle to” can be used when _______.A. some footballers refuse to play a gameB. someone else is wanted on the phoneC. someone is not qualified for a positionD. someone was delayed by heavy traffic2. If you can’t get your ideal salary, you can________.A. hold a candle.B. hold outC. hold upD. hold on3.Which of the following sentences can convey positive meanings?A.I was late as I was held up by a hold up.B. Hold on! You have to pay the bill, sir.C. You can’t even hold a candle to Michael.D. I promise to hold the line on house prices.BTwo of the saddest words in the English language are “if only”. I live my life with the goal of never having to say those words, because they convey regret, lost opportunities, mistakes and disappointment.My father is famous in our family for saying, “Take the extra minute to do it right.” I always try to live by the “extra minute” rule. When my children were young and likely to cause accidents, I always thought about what I could do to avoid an “if only” moment, whether it was something m inor like moving a cup full of hot coffee away from the edge of a counter, or something that required a little more work such as taping padding (衬垫) onto the sharp corners of a glass coffee table.I don’t only avoid those “if only” moments when it comes to safety. It’s equally important to avoid “if only” in our personal relationships. We all know people who lost a loved one and regretted that they had foregone an opportunity to say “I love you” or “I forgive you.” When my father announced he was going to the eye doctor across from my office on Good Friday, I told him that it was a holiday for my company and I wouldn’t be here. But then I thought about the fact that he’s 84 years old and I realized that I shouldn’t give up an opportunity to see him. I called him and told him I had decided to go to work on my day off after all.I know there will still be occasions when I have to say “if only” about something, but my life is definitely better because of my policy of doing everything possible to avoid that eventuality. And even though it takes an extra minute to do something right, or it occasionally takes an hour or two in my busy schedule to make a personal connection, I know that I’m doing the right thing. I’m buying myself peace of mind and that’s the best kind of insurance for my emotional well-being.4.Which of the following is an example of the “extra minute” rule?A. Start the car the moment everyone is seated.B. Leave the room for a minute with the iron working.C. Wait for an extra minute so that the steak tastes better.D. Move an object out of the way before it trips someone.5. The underlined word “foregone” in Paragraph 3 is closest in meaning to ______.A. avoidedB. abandonedC. lackedD. took6. The author decided to go to her office on Good Friday to ______.A. keep her appointment with the eye doctorB. meet her father who was already an old manC. join in the holiday celebration of the companyD. finish her work before the deadline approached7. What is the best title for the passage?A. The Peace of MindB. The Most Useful RuleC. The Two Saddest WordsD. The Emotional Well-beingCIt’s rare that you see the words “shyness” and “leader” in the same sentence. After all, the common viewpoint is that those outgoing and sociable guys make great public speakers and excellent networkers and that those shy people are not. A survey conducted by USA Today referred to 65 percent of executives who believed shyness to be a barrier to leadership. Interestingly, the same article stresses that roughly 40 percent of leaders actually are quite shy—they're just better at adapting themselves to situational demands. Bill Gates, Warren Buffet and Charles Schwab are just a few "innies".Unlike their outgoing counterparts who are more sensitive to rewards and risk-taking, shy people take a cautious approach to chance. Rather than the flashy chit-chat that defines social gathering, shy people listen attentively to what others say and absorb it before they speak. They're not thinking about what to say while the other person is still talking, but rather listening so they can learn what to say. Along the same lines, shy people share a common love of learning. They are intrinsically（内在地） motivated and therefore seek content regardless of achieving an outside standard.Being shy can also bring other benefits. Remember being in school and hearing the same kids contribute, until shy little Johnny, who almost never said a word, cut in? Then what happened? Everyone turned around to look with great respect at little Johnny actually talking. This is how shy people made good use of their power of presence: they "own" the moment by speaking calmly and purposefully, which translates to a positive image.Shyness is often related to modesty. Not to say that limelight-seekers aren't modest, but shy people tend to have an accurate sense of their abilities and achievements. As a result, they are able to acknowledge mistakes, imperfections,knowledge gaps and limitations.Since shy people have a lower sensitivity to outside rewards than outgoing ones, they're more comfortable working with little information and sticking to their inner desires. Shy people are also more likely to insist on finding solutions that aren't primarily apparent. Don't believe me? Maybe you'll believe Albert Einstein, who once said, "It's not that I'm so smart, it's that I stay with problems longer." Obviously, finding certainty where uncertainty is typically popular is a huge plus for any successful person.The myth that shy people are less effective leaders than their outgoing fellows is just a misunderstanding. Make wise use of your personality strengths to lead your business no matter what side of the range you fall on.8.We can learn from Paragraph 2 that_______.A. shy people are sensitive to rewardsB. shy people care more about contentC. outgoing people are more careful about chancesD. outgoing people consider what to learn while listening9.The example of Johnny shows______.A. shy people are likely to be modestB. hardworking students speak little in publicC. some students keep silent on purpose at schoolD. shy people may have an advantage in discussion10.We can learn from the underlined sentence in Paragraph 5 that______.A. success results from devotionB. shyness contributes to popularityC. outside reward leads to insistenceD. uncertainty counts more than certainty11.The author supports his ideas mainly by______.A. making contrasts and giving examplesB. explaining problems and providing solutionsC. giving definitions(定义) and presenting research resultsD. quoting(引用) authorities and making evaluations(评价)DWhat is the most common cause for people in the UK to ask for leave due to illness? The answer is not the common cold or flu, but back pain. Back pain affects one in three British adults, costs the country over 5 billion pounds every yearand is very difficult to treat. But now Britain’s National Health Service (NHS) will be offering a new solution: acupuncture(针灸). The ancient Chinese needle treatment has been around in the UK for many years, but this is the first time it has been officially approved by the NHS.Traditionally, doctors in the UK have advised back pain sufferers to stay active, do stretching exercises and take painkillers when necessary. In more serious cases some people are given X-ray treatment or injections with medicines. However, there is evidence that acupuncture may be more effective than expensive X-rays or injections, so patients who have been suffering for over six weeks should be given a choice. As an alternative to acupuncture, patients will be able to choose either a course of spinal manipulation (脊柱推拿), or a series of special exercise sessions. In the UK, acupuncture is regarded as an aiding treatment, which means medical procedure hasn’t experienced serious experiments by which scientists prove some treatments work. While many experts have welcomed the policy to make acupuncture available on the NHS, some are still doubtful about its effectiveness.Research from the US earlier this month found that similar acupuncture using toothpicks (牙签) which do not stick into the skin could be as good as using real needles. So while some are yet to be convinced, back pain sufferers will be hoping that acupuncture helps get them feeling healthy again.12. According to the passage, which is the best way to treat back pain?A. To stay active.B. To be acupunctured.C. To do stretching exercises.D. To take X-ray treatment or injections.13. Why are some people still doubtful about the effectiveness of acupuncture?A. Because they have other choices.B. Because acupuncture costs too much.C. Because using toothpicks is as good as using real needles.D. Because acupuncture hasn’t been tested by scienti sts strictly.14. What does the author want to prove in the last paragraph?A. Needles are not better than toothpicks.B. Toothpicks is a useful tool for acupuncture.C. Toothpicks will take place of needles in the future.D. Acupuncture can be an effective treatment for back pain.15. What does the passage mainly talk about?A. The magic needles.B. Acupuncture in the UK.C. The ways to treat back pain.D. The reasons for people to ask for leave.第二节（共5小题；毎小题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，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

Have no regrets．The elderly usually don’t have regrets for what we did, but rather for things we did not do．The only people who fear death are those with regrets．”She concluded her speech by courageously singing The Song of Rose. She challenged each of us to study the lyrics（歌词）and live them out in our daily life．At the year’s end, Rose finished the college degree she had begun all those years ago．One week after graduation Rose died peacefully in her sleep．24．What happened to the author on the first day of school?A．He joined the Student Union．B．He got to know an old professor．C．He made the acquaintance of an old lady．D．He had to share a milkshake with others．25．From the underlined sentence in Paragraph 2, we can find out the author’s．A．respect for the old B．concern about ageC．curiosity about the lady D．complaint about education26．In the author’s eyes,．A．Rose was silent and skilled．B．Rose was talented and hardworking．C．Rose was innocent and generous．D．Rose was courageous and her words were inspiring．27．Which saying might Rose possibly support?A．Rome was not built in a day．B．One is never too old to learn．C．It is no use crying over spilt milk．D．Great minds think alike．CMoney is the root of all evil and new study claims there may be some truth behind the saying．Scientists at the University of California．Berkeley, US，announced on February 27 that rich people are more likely to do unethical （不道德的）things．such as lie or cheat, than poorer people．The scientists did a series of eight experiments. They published their findings online in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences．They carried out the first two experiments from the sidewalk near Berkeley．They noted that drivers of newer and more expensive cars were more likely to cut off other cars and pedestrians at crosswalks．Nearly 45 percent of people driving expensive cars ignored a pedestrian compared with only 30 percent of people driving more modest cars．In another experiment，a group of college students was asked if they would do unethical things in various everyday situations．Examples included taking printer paper from work and not telling a salesperson when he or she gave back more change．Students from higher-class families were more likely to act dishonestly．According to the scientists，rich people often think money call get them out of trouble．This makes them less afraid to take risks．It also means they care less about other people’s feelings．Finally，it simply makes them greedier．“Higher wealth status seems to make you want even more，and that increased want leads you to bend the rules or break the rules to serve your self-interest，”said Paul Piff, lead scientist of the study．Piff pointed out that the findings don’t mean that all rich people are untrustworthy or all poor people honest．He said the experiments were to show how people living in different social situations express their instincts and values in different ways．28．By saying “money is the root of all evil”, the author wants to．A．draw readers’ attention to the research B．1ink wealth with bad behaviorC．show how the saying proves the findings D．defend rich people who do unethical things 29．What makes rich people unethical according to the scientists7．a．they become more selfish b．they have more desiresc．they believe money talks d．they welcome risksA．a、b B．a、b、d C．b、c D．a、b、c30．Why did the scientists do the experiments?A．To show how social status affects people's ethics．B．To show people’s instincts and values in different ways．C．To test whether the saying “money is the root of all evil” is true．D．To show the difference between higher-class people and lower-class people．31．What does the article really want to show us?A．Money is the root of all evil．B．The rich are more likely to act badly．C．The saying is reasonable．D．All rich people are untrustworthy．DThere is a popular belief among parents that schools are no longer interested in spelling．No school I have taught in has ever ignored spelling or considered it unimportant as a basic skill．There are, however, different ideas about how to teach it, or how much priority it must be given over general language development and writing ability．The problem is how to encourage a child to express himself freely and confidently in writing without holding him back with the complexities of spelling．If spelling becomes the only focal point of his teacher’s interest, clearly a bright child will be likely to “play safe”．He will tend to write only words within his spelling range, choosing to avoid adventurous language．That’s why teachers often encourage the early use of dictionaries and pay attention to content rather than technical ability．I was once shocked to read on the bottom of a sensitive piece of writing about a personal experience: “This w ork is terrible! There are far too many spelling errors and your writing is terrible．” It may have been a sharp criticism of the pupil’s technical abilities in writing, but it was also a sad reflection on the teacher who had omitted to read the essay, whic h contained some beautiful expressions of the child’s deep feelings．The teacher was not wrong to draw attention to the errors, but if his priorities had centered on the child’s ideas, an expression of his disappointment with the presentation would have given the pupil more motivation to seek improvement．32．Teachers are different in their opinions about _________．A．the difficulties in teaching spelling B．the necessity of teaching spellingC．the complexities of the basic writing skills D．the role of spelling in general language development 33．The underlined expression “play safe” probably means “________”．A．to write carefully B．to avoid using words one is not sure ofC．to use dictionaries frequently D．to do as teachers say34．Teachers encourage the use of dictionaries so that ________．A．students will have less trouble in correcting mistakesB．students will have more confidence in writingC．students will be able to express their ideas more freelyD．students will learn to be independent of teachers35．The major point discussed in the passage is _______．A．the relationship between spelling and the content of a compositionB．the importance of developing writing skillsC．the correct way of marking compositionsD．the complexities of spelling第二节（共5小题：每小题2分，满分10分）When you live in America, it is not uncommon to see many children coming home from school to an empty house．36 Some may hide．But all of them have something in common. They spend part of each day alone. They are c alled latchkey children. They’re children who look after themselves while their parents work.37 Kate Green was one of the headmasters of an elementary school. She said, “We had a school rule against wearing jewelry. A lot of kids had chains around their necks with keys attached. I was constantly telling them to putShe and her husband began talking to the children. They offered the suggestion: 39 One in every three latchkey children the Greens talked to once reported being scared. Many had nightmares and were worried about their own safety.The most common way latchkey children deal with their fears is by hiding. 40 The second is TV. They’ll often pla y it at high volume. It’s hard to get statistics on latchkey children. Most parents are slow to admit they leave their children alone.A．Slowly, she learned they were house keys.B．But they don’t mindC．Some deal with the situation by watching TVD．Fear is the biggest problem faced by children at home alone.E．Some should go to their friends for safety.F．And their bad condition has become a subject of concern.G．It might be in a shower stall, under a bed or in a closet.第三部分英语知识运用（共两节，满分45分）第一节完形填空（共20小题：每小题1．5分，满分30分）阅读下列短文，从每小题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

AWith exams just around the corner, now is a good time to explore some of UCL’slesser-known study spaces and get down to some revision. Here are some good choices for you.UCL Senate House HubUCL Senate House Hub opened in 2015 and provides 144 study spaces. What’s more, you can check how many spaces are available online before you head to the hub! Located on the third floor of the South Block of Senate House, the center has room for individual and group study in traditional library spaces, as well as casual armchairs and bar-style desks.UCL Eastman Dental LibraryThe newly refurbished(翻新的) UCL Eastman Dental Library is located halfway along Gray’s Inn Road and is open from Monday to Friday, 9:00 am–8:00 pm. The library has 72 study spaces, and many IT facilities are available. The library also has a study room for meetings and a computer room with an interactive whiteboard.UCL Language & Speech Science LibraryUCL Language & Speech Science Library (LaSS) has disabled access and has recently been refurbished to add extra study spaces. With only 49 spaces, LaSS is smaller than most other UCL Libraries and tends to fill up relatively quickly, so get there early to avoid disappointment.Senate House LibraryThis one may be cheating as the Senate House Library is not technically a UCL library. However, all UCL students and staff can register for free membership online. With millions of books and journals, Senate House Library offers some places a little less used by UCL students but perfect for getting down to some hard work.1. The four places are mainly introduced to someone who __________.A. loves readingB. is preparing for examsC. likes learning onlineD. prefers to study in libraries2. What should students do online before they go to UCL Senate House Hub?A. Make an appointment in advance.B. Check t he library’s opening hours.C. Check whether there are available seats.D. Check whether there are available armchairs.3. How many libraries may offer Internet services?A. One.B. Two.C. Three.D. Four.第1页，共8页4. What can be inferred from the passage?A. UCL Senate House Hub has the longest history.B. Senate House Library is not used by UCL students.C. The disabled have no access to all the four libraries.D. LaSS may be the smallest one among the four libraries.BKathy Fletcher and David Simpson have a son named Santi. He had a friend who sometimes went to school hungry. So Santi invited him to occasionally eat and sleep at his house.That friend had a friend and that friend had a friend, and now when you go to dinner at Kathy and Da vid’s house on Thursday night there might be 15 to 20 teenagers gathering around the table, and later there will be groups of them crashing in the basement or in the few small bedrooms upstairs. The kids who show up at Kathy and David’s have suffered the p ains of modern poverty: homelessness, hunger, abuse.And yet by some miracle, hostile soil has produced beautiful flowers. Kids come from around the city. Spicy chicken and black rice are served. Cellphones are banned. The kids who call Kathy and David “Momma” and “Dad,” are polite and clear the dishes. Birthdays and graduations are celebrated. Songs are performed. Each meal we go around the table and everybody has to say something nobody else knows about them. Each meal the kids show their promise to care for one another.The adults in this community give the kids the chance to present their gifts. “At my first dinner, Edd read a poem that I first thought was from Langston Hughes, but it turned out to be his own. Kesari has a voice that somehow appeared from New Orleans jazz from the 1920s. Madeline and Thalya practice friendship as if it were the highest art form.”“They give us a gift — complete intolerance of social distance. When I first met Edd, I held out my hand to shake his. He looked at it and sai d, ‘We hug here,’and we’ve been hugging since.”Bill Milliken, a veteran youth activist, is often asked which programs turn around kids’ lives. “I still haven’t seen one program change one kid’s life,” he says. “What changes people is relationships. Somebody is willing to walk through the shadow of the valley of adolescence with them.” Souls are not saved in packs. Love is the necessary force.5. Why do kids come to Kathy and David’s house on Thursdays?A. To help the homeless at first hand.B. To experience the feeling of home.C. To learn about the modern poverty.D. To plant beautiful flowers in poor soil.6. Why isn’t the use of cell phones allowed at Thursday dinners?A. Kids need to tell stories about themselves.B. Kids are expected to care more for each other.C. Kids have to do house chores around the home.D. Kids prepare songs for birthdays and graduations.第2页，共8页7. What gift did the writer get at a Thursday dinner?A. The practice of the art form.B. The pleasure of enjoying jazz.C. The chance to listen to poems.D. The zero distance between souls.8. What does Bill mean in his words?A. Love is the power to change a kid’s life.B. Money is needed to start programs for kids.C. A program can change a group of kid’s lives.D. Kids change their relationships in a program.CDo you like eating processed meat? If you do, think twice now if you want to eat such meat for the sake of your health. Why? It’s because eating processed meat can cause cancer, World Health Organization (WHO) experts said last Monday.Processed meat is the meat that has been preserved by salting, smoking, drying or canning. Experts from the WHO’s International Agency for Research on Cance r (IARC) in Lyon, France studied 800 patients. The experts connected processed meat, such as hot dogs and bacon, with at least three kinds of cancer. A person who eats 50 grams of processed meat per day—about two pieces of bacon—increases his or her risk of bowel(肠) cancer by 18 percent.The IARC has included processed meat in its Group 1 list, for which there is “enough evidence” of connection with cancer. Tob acco is also on the Group 1 list.WHO experts also say red meat, including beef, lamb and pork, is “probably” carcinogenic (致癌的) to humans. Dr. Kurt Strait is with the IARC. He said in a statement that the risk of cancer increases with the amount of meat a person eats. Health experts in some countries advised against eating large amounts of red and processed meat. But those suggestions had been centered on the increased risk of heart disease and obesity.However, meat industry groups protest the result of the WHO study. They say that meat is part of a balanced diet. They also say the causes of cancer are broad, and include environment and lifestyle factors.The WHO report cites the Global Burden of Disease project, which shows that diets high in processed meat lead to 34,000 cancer deaths per year worldwide.9. It can be inferred that the items on the Group 1 list of the IARC ________.A. are all processed foodsB. aren’t often eaten by peopleC. can be the most dangerous to humansD. can greatly increase the risk of cancer10. What can take the place of the underlined word “protest”?A. Learn from.B. Disagree with.C. Take interest in.D. Pay attention to.11. What can be used as the best title of the passage?A. WHO: Processed Meat Can Cause CancerB. The Importance of Having a Balanced Diet第3页，共8页C. Eating Too Much Red Meat Is Bad for HumansD. Scientists Found the Causes of Some Kinds of CancerDChildren grow quickly, especially their feet. But many families cannot buy new shoes each time a child needs them. As a result, about 300 million children around the world go barefoot. Those children risk picking up diseases and parasites from the soil.Kenton Lee, an American man invented The Shoe That Grows. He explains, “It grows in three places: the front, on the side and on the back. It can last up to five years. The bottom is rubber like tire rubber. The top is just high-quality leather. ”Lee says he got the idea for the shoe while working as a volunteer in an orphanage in Kenya. “I just remember a little girl who wore a pair of small shoes. The shoes were so small that she had to cut open the front of her shoes to let her toes stick out. And I just remember thinking, wouldn't it be nice if there were a pair of shoes that could grow with her feet？”However, Lee says it was not easy to turn his idea into a reality. Finally, in 2009 Lee founded a non-profit organization called Because International. In the office of Because International, Lee keeps a pair of his own shoes to help him remember his promise.A pair of shoes, he says, gives more than protection. It gives a child self-worth and more chances to succeed. “Because it's a small thing that really does make a big difference to keep them healthy and happy and having more chances to succeed. ”Kenton Lee adds that his goal is to help get The Shoe That Grows to as many children as he can around the world.12. The first paragraph may intends to tell us ________.A. many children suffer lacking shoesB. shoes are badly needed in many placesC. the necessity of inventing the new shoesD. we should make efforts to help the children13. What does the underlined word “ parasites” in paragraph 1 mean?A. Small living things that live on or inside something.B. The remains that left in the soil after crops got in.C. Some worms that protect soil.D. Small insects that are not easy to find.14. What’s the main idea of paragraph 3?A. The children in orphanage live a hard life.B. What inspired Kenton Lee to invent the shoes.C. A girl with a pair of worn shoes.D. Kenton Lee wanted to help the children.15. From Kenton Lee, we can know _________.第4页，共8页A. the new-invented shoes can grow automaticallyB. he had little difficulty in inventing the new type shoesC. he had a great dream to invent shoes from his childhoodD. shoes are important for children’s physical and mental growth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。
