W：Are you flying home after the meeting?

M：Yes, but I bought a book to read.
(Text 5)
M：Hello. What's the price of an airmail letter to the USA?

China's twitter­like information sharing and social contact platform Weibo has seen a surge in popularity. But now it is facing a competitor. The battle among China's social networks is heating up. It turns out that when it comes to instant messaging through social platforms, people are choosing WeChat over Weibo.
“I choose WeChat. It's more convenient.”
“WeChat. I don't use Weibo very much，” some users said.
WeChat, formally called Weixin, literally translates from Chinese for Micro Message, is a mobile application designed by Tencent Company for sending voice or text messages, video and pictures through smartphones and tablets. This app, which allows information sharing only among friends, is posing a big challenge to Weibo.
Shi Anbin, Professor of Tsinghua University, News and Communication School, said, “People hope to use more accessible tools...Weixin is a big challenge to Weibo.”
By the end of March 2012, the most popular microblog, Sina Weibo had more than 300 million users. The number increased to more than 400 million by the end of September.
But a surge in users hasn't really translated into a surge for the company's bottom line. That's the biggest problem for Sina according to Professor Shi Anbin. He suggests Weibo to learn from its competitor, which already has a mature revenue channel.
“Weibo doesn't create income. I think it should learn from WeChat, which creates
a consumer circle，” Shi said.
Professor Shi says Weibo should find a proper business model to translate its popularity and social function to benefit the company.
第二部分：阅读理解(共两节，满分35分)
第一节：(共10小题；每小题2.5分，满分25分)
阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中，选出最佳选项。

A
Parents will do anything for their children. Whether it would be the food, clothes, or the place they live in, parents will always make sure their children have the best of everything. One of the biggest concerns that parents currently have is educating their children. They are faced with lots of difficulties when it comes to education for their young ones. Choices include private school, charter school, public school or home schooling.
Fortunately for parents, there are a variety of different strategies that they can take in order to increase their child's overall intelligence. According to Ross A. Thompson, PhD, professor of psychology at the University of California at Davis, a child's brain will actually reach 90% of its full size by the time they start kindergarten.
Researchers at Northwestern University in Chicago concluded that playing a musical instrument directly affected the brain stem, the lower section of the brain. Moreover, children that learn an instrument at an early age tend to continue it when they are older. And numerous studies show that a well balanced meal is essential for a child's mental as well as physical health. Some other researchers recommended that a second language should be taught when children are in preschool. They state that three to four years of age is the perfect time and that any age under four would work perfectly fine for a child's brain development.
The average child will learn how to read between kindergarten and second grade. Many parents can give their children a jump_start by teaching them to read before they start school. Children could have an adequate background of the alphabet and sounds of words before attending school. This can be done by simply reading to them whenever you want. The more comfortable they get, the easier the process will be.
21．From the first paragraph, we can infer that ________.
A．parents find it hard to satisfy their kids' various demands
B．parents meet a new challenge when raising their kids
C．parents have more choices in offering education to their kids
D．parents get actively involved in the process of their kids' growth
22．What suggestion may the researchers in the passage make?
A．To train kids as early as possible.
B．To try as many means as possible.
C．To help kids develop as fully as possible.
D．To use as many available resources as possible.
23．What does the third paragraph mainly discuss about?
A．The proper time to teach children to learn languages.
B．The effective ways to help develop children's brains.
C．The vital factors to have a great effect on children's health.
D．The practical steps to arouse children's interest in study.
24．We can replace the words “jump start” in the last paragraph with ________.
A．inspiration B．introduction
C．suggestion D．promotion
答案与解析
本文是一篇教育类文章，讲述家长应在孩子学前进行培养，这样会给孩子一个较高的起点，孩子们上学后也会更轻松。

21．B 细节理解题。

根据第一段提到One of the biggest concerns that parents currently have is educating their children. They are faced with lots of difficulties when it comes to education for their young ones. Choices include private school, charter school, public school or homeschooling.可知，现在家长面临的最大问题是教育自己的孩子，但又面临很多的困难，到底选择私立学校、公立学校还是家庭教育，故选B 项。

22．A 推理判断题。

根据第三段中Research suggests that a second language should be taught when children are in preschool. Other studies state that three to four years of age is the perfect time.可知，研究表明，第二种语言的教育应该在学前就已经开始，三到四岁是最佳的年龄，故家长可以尽早训练孩子，故选A项。

23．B 细节理解题。

第三段讲述了乐器可以影响大脑的发育，越早学习乐器，长大后越能继续学习，在孩子最佳年龄四岁时开始进行第二语言的教育，这些都是开发孩子大脑的有效方法，故选B项。

24．D 词义猜测题。

根据这句话提到Many parents can give their children a jump start by teaching them to read before they start school.可知，许多父母通过在上学之前就教给孩子阅读，这样给了孩子一个跳跃式的开始，也就是有一个高的起点，promotion
意为“提升”，与jump start意思相近，故选D项。

B
You wake up in the morning. The day is beautiful and the plans for the day are what you have been looking forward to for a long time. And then the telephone rings, you say hello, and the play starts. The person on the other end has a sad tone in his voice as he starts to tell you how terrible his morning is and that there is nothing to look forward to. You are still in a wonderful mood(心情)? Impossible!
Communicating with negative (消极的) people can wash out your happiness. It may not change what you think, but communicating long enough with them will make you feel unhappy for a moment or a long time.
Life brings ups and downs, but some people are trapped in the wrong idea that life has no happiness to offer. They only feel glad when they make others feel bad. It is not strange that they can hardly win others' pity or respect.
When you communicate with happy people，you will stay happy. When the knife of a negative person is put in you, you feel the heavy feeling that, all in all, brings you down.
Sometimes we have no choice but to communicate with negative people. This could be a co­worker, or a relative. In this situation, say what needs to be said as little as possible. Sometimes it feels good to let out your anger back to the negative person，but all this cannot reduce your bad feelings and they won't feel ashamed(羞愧) of themselves about that.
Unhappiness often influences happiness without even being realized. The depressing(令人沮丧的) words of another at the start of the day can be with you throughout the rest of your day, which makes you feel bad and steals your happiness. Life is too short to feel unhappy.
25．The purpose of the first paragraph is to ________.
A．make a comparison(比较)
B．offer an evidence(证据)
C．introduce the topic
D．describe a daily scene
26．How can negative people have an effect on us?
A．By influencing our feelings.
B．By telling people the nature of life.
C．By changing our way of thinking.
D．By comparing their attitude to life with ours.
27．What do some negative people base their happiness on?
A．Other people's pity for them.
B．Making other people unhappy.
C．Holding an active attitude.
D．Other people's respect for them.
答案与解析
好心情是会传染的，那么坏心情呢？当然也会传染！坏心情的传染会带给身边的人负能量，那么我们为何不做一个传播好心情的正能量大使呢？
25．C 推理判断题。

文章开头提到你有一个不错的早晨，心情很好，结果你的朋友打电话抱怨他的早晨倒霉透了，你还会有好心情吗？这主要是为了引出文章的主题。

故选C。

26．A 细节理解题。

由“It may not change what you think，but communicating long enough with them will make you feel unhappy for a moment or a long time.”可知，坏心情的人们会影响我们的感觉，继而影响我们的心情和生活。

故选A。

27．B 细节理解题。

由“They only feel glad when they make others feel bad.”可知，一些消极的人把自己的快乐建立在别人的痛苦之上。

故选B。

C
What makes a gift special? Is it the price you see on the gift box? Or is it the look on the recipient's face when he receives it that determines the true value? What gift is worth the most?
This Christmas I was wondering what to give my father when I came across a message on my phone. The message was from my father. My eyes fell on a photo of a flower and underneath(在……下面) a poem by William Blake. The dandelion(蒲公英) standing against the bright blue sky gave me an idea. My dad had been reading those words to me since I was a kid. That may even be the reason why I love writing. I decided that those words would be my gift to my father.
I called back. I told my mum to go without me and that I had already made my gift. I sent the photo of the creamcoloured flower to my computer and typed the poem on top of it. As I was arranging the details, another poem came to my mind. The poem was written by Edgar Allan Poe; my dad read it as much as he did the other. I typed that out too and searched online for a background to the words of it. As I watched both poems passing through the printer, the white paper was coloured with words that shaped my childhood. I felt that this was a gift that my father would truly appreciate.
Christmas soon arrived. The minute I saw the look on my dad's face as he opened the gift, I knew I had given the perfect gift full of my love.
28．Why does the writer become interested in writing?
A．Because of his teacher's education.
B．Because of his mother's effect.
C．Because of his father's influence.
D．Because of his love to nature.
29．The author's idea for the gift came from ________.
A．a photo of a flower
B．a story about a kid
C．a call from the mother
D．a text about Christmas
30．How did the author made the gift?
A．By searching for the poems online.
B．By drawing the background by hand.
C．By painting the letters in three colours.
D．By matching the words with pictures.
答案与解析
什么才会使你送的礼物特别呢？是礼物的价钱吗？还是当收到礼物时接受礼物的人脸上惊喜的表情呢？在本文中作者讲述了自己在圣诞节前给父亲准备礼物的事情，通过自己的亲身经历作者给读者讲述了一个道理：礼物不在贵重，而是贵在心意。

28．C 细节理解题。

根据第二段“My dad had been reading those words to me since I was a kid.That may even be the reason why I love writing.”可知作者喜欢写作是受父亲的影响。

29．A 细节理解题。

根据文章第二段“My eyes fell on a photo of a flower and underneath(在……下面)a poem by William Blake.The dandelion(蒲公英) standing against the bright blue sky gave me an idea.”可知是一张有蒲公英花的照片给了作者灵感，故选A。

30．D 细节理解题。

根据文章第三段作者制作礼物的过程可知答案为D。

第二节：(共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分)
根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

选项中有两项为多余选项。

I'm 30 years old, and there are several things that life has taught me that I want to share with you. Here are the 4 lessons that life has taught me in the past
30 years.
Take care of your body.
Life is “unfairly” bias ed (偏向的) towards people who “look good”， like it or not. So it's important that you do all that is in your power to look your best. __31__ You will live longer, and you will live happier, if you take care, of your body; you may even get promoted faster on your job. Remember that your health is really your greatest wealth.
__32__
No one taught me to save when I was growing up; no one told me the importance of saving. Fortunately, I was able to learn the value of saving through reading great books like The Millionaire Next Door. What I want to teach others is to save at least twenty per cent of your income. If you are to be wealthy, you must not just earn a lot, you must save a lot.
Think in the long term.
In high school I was thinking about college, and in college I was thinking about life after college. I'm designing my life and I'm making decisions today that will enable me to live the life I desire when I'm in my 40's, 50's and 60's. You have to think in the long term; you have to see the “big picture”. __33__ Realize the power of focus.
Focus, focus, focus... __34__ If you fail in this lifetime, you fail because of broken focus. If you focus on the goals that are most important to you, you will achieve them. The problem is that there are so many distractions(使人分心的事). __35__ Winners decide to major on majors, and they even let important things slip, because they just focus on achieving what is critical(极重要的) to their goals.
A．Save your money.
B．The importance of saving.
C．If you plan your future properly, you will live into your plans.
D．I mean dressing nicely, working out and eating right.
E．It's critical that you pursue relationships with individuals who are good first.
F．Nothing is more critical than focus.
G．What separates the winners from the losers is that the winners learn to focus on their goals.
答案与解析
文章谈论了作者自己对人生的一些感悟。

31．D 根据前一句“...in your power to look your best.”可知，你必须尽最大的努力在你的着装仪表上下功夫，所以下一句应该与dress 有关，故选D。

32．A 根据该部分第一句“No one taught me to save...”可知，本段是在说save money，故选A。

33．C 根据前一句“You have to think in the long term; you have to see the ‘big picture’．”可知，你得做长远的人生谋划，你得畅想“人生蓝图”，所以你需要合理地规划你的未来，故选C。

34．F 结合前后两句的“focus”可知，没有什么比专注更重要。

故选F。

35．G 此处在谈论胜利者和失败者的区别，G项说明其区别在于胜利者可以集中精力完成目标，故选G。

“Nobody was helping him even though he looked so __41__，” Ms Noriza explained. She found some people were not only not doing anything about it, but were complaining .The __42__ was more than she could stand. __43__，she went up to help.

“Her __49__ towards a stranger moved me. It was __50__ and complete kindness，” said Mr Goh.
Sometimes we are so focused on conflicts, arguments and all sorts of __51__ things that we forget that the world is what it is because of us. If we want to see

阅读下面短文，根据所给情节进行续写，使之构成一个完整的故事。

It is hard to say where the arrangement of fate is. Sometimes, the worst situation may be the best one. So even if the worst thing happens, never lose hope for life.
John_Smith was a captain who owned a ship used for long years out of repair. And John was such a man that seemed a little bit mean and greedy.
Once John's ship was going to carry passengers to go across a deep river. Because those passengers were in a hurry to reach their places, he became a little excited when he looked at a good number of people. He was very happy, thinking that he would make enough money that day! As a result, he didn't refuse anyone to get aboard. And then the captain started the journey soon.
There was something abnormal that day. It was kind of windy and the current of the river was fast flowing and treacherous (有潜在危险的), which made passengers worried and afraid. Suddenly, John, an experienced captain, felt that his ship was going to sink if the number of people would not be reduced. Although he liked money, he had to come up with an idea. Looking around, John found the target—a young man in quite plain clothes. Actually, he was the_only_one who didn't get a seat and stood in a corner. Then John asked the young man to jump into the river.
The young man got rather baffling (困惑的), asking，“Why me？”The captain said if he would not jump, then all the passengers would die because of his weight in the ship! The young man thought for a while! He was such a generous and selfless person that he couldn't accept the idea of becoming a cause of death of so many people in the ship. So he made_up_his_mind to give up his own life for others! Then he jumped。
