It is said a fish head is good for brain. If you eat one, you’ll become cleverer indeed. Pay only three pounds for one fish head.” The boy paid him three pounds and the fis herman cut off a fish head and handed it to him.A raw fish head is not good—not even for a hungry boy to eat but the boy ate it up in two gu lps.“Do you feel anything?” asked the fisherman.“Not in my head,” said the boy.The boy lay on the ground and thought. “One whole fish cos ts only two pounds. I had paid him three pounds for the fish h ead. Why couldn’t I have the whole fish for soup, a head for br ain and one pound left over?” He jumped up and shouted at t he fisherman. “You thief! You are fooling me!” The fisherman l aughed, saying, “The fish head works now, you see.”21. The boy ate up the raw fish head only in two gulps, becau se he __________.A. enjoy itB. wanted to taste itC. took it as a good medicineD. was a foolish boy22. “Not in my head” means “__________.”A.

The boy paid three pounds. He should have had ________ __.A. a whole fishB. a fish head and one pound backC. a whole fish and one pound backD. a whole fish, a fish head and one pound backBRecently a professor of philosophy in the United States has written a book called Money and the Meaning of Life. He has discovered that how we deal with money in our day-to-day life has more meaning than we usually think. One of the e xercises he asked his students to do is to keep a record of ev ery penny they spend for a week. From the way they spend th eir money, they can see what they really value in life.He says our relation with others often become clearly defined when money enters the picture. You might have wonderful friendship with somebody and you think that you arevery good friends. But you’ll know him only when you ask t o lend you some money. If he does, it brings something to the relationship that seems stranger than ever before. Or it can s uddenly weaken the relationship if he doesn’t. This person ma y say that he has a certain feeling, but if it is not carried out in the money world, there is something less real about it.Since money is important to us, we consider those who pos sess a lot of it to be very important. The author interviewed so me millionaires in researching his book.Question: What is the most surprising thing you have disco vered about being rich, because you are a self-made man?Answer: The most surprising thing is why people give me s o much respect. I’m nothing. I don’t know much. All I am is ric h.People just have an idea of making more and more money, but what is it for? How much do I need for anygiven purposes in my life? In this book, the professor unco vered an important need in modern society; to bring back the i dea that money is an instrument rather than the end. Money p lays an important role in the modern world, but expecting mon ey to give happiness may be missing the meaning of life.24. According to the first paragraph, people haven’t realized _ _________.A. how important money is in their day-to-day lifeB. how one spends money shows what is important to himC. that money is more important than their philosophy of lifeD. that their understanding of life is more important than mone y25. The author seems to believe that asking your friend to lend you some money __________.A. is a good way to test your friendB. will do harm to your friendC. will strengthen your friendshipD. is a good way to break off your friendship26. What can we learn about the millionaire from his answer i n the interview?A. He doesn’t feel that he is well educated.B. He doesn’t think he is a very important person.C. He doesn’t think being rich deserves so much attention.D. He doesn’t consider himself to be very successful.CBolivia has a population three and a half million .

The government and the industries are und er the control of the white people .The Indians today live in much the same way as their ancesto rs . Most of them are farmers . Many work in the mines , for mining is the most important industry in Bolivia . Of all the min ing products , tin is the most important , which makes up three -fourths of all Bolivia’s exports . The eastern slopes of the And es , since there are very few roads there , are fertile but not hi ghly developed . The two primary means of transportation are river boats and porters . East of the hill region are the great pl ains where tropical plants are grown . A serious problem for B olivia is the transport of food from the warm regions , where it is grown to the mountainous regions , where most of the people live .Bolivia gained its independence from Spain about a hundred years ago .

They learn langua ges, history, geography, physics, chemistry and mathematics.Others go to school to learn a skill so that they can make a liv ing. School education is very important and useful. Yet no one can learn everything they want to know. The teacher’s job is t o show his students how to learn. He teaches them how to re ad and how to think. So, much more is to be learned outside s chool by the students themselves.It is always more important to know how to study by oneself th an to memorize some facts or a formula. It is usually quite eas y to learn a certain fact in history or a formula in mathematics. But it is very difficult to use a formula in working out a maths problem. Great scientists, such as Einstein, Newton and Galil eo didn’t get anything from school. But they were all so succe ssful. They invented so many things for mankind.The reason for their success is that they knew how to study. T hey read books that were not taught at school. They worked h ard all their lives, wasting not a single moment. They would as k many questions as they readand they did thousands of experiments.Above all, they knew how to use their brains.31.

AI hear many parents saying that their teenage children are rebellion（反叛的）. I wish it were so. At your age you ought to be growing away from your parents. You should be learning to stand on your own two feet. But take a good look at the present rebellion. It seems that teenagers are all taking the same way of showing that they disagree with their parents. Instead of striking out bravely on their own, most of them are trying to seize at one another’s hands for safety.They say they want to dress as they please. But they all wear the same clothes. They set off in new directions in music. But somehow reason for thinking or acting in thus-and-such a way is that the crowd is doing it. They have come out of their cocoon(蚕茧) -----into a larger cocoon.It has become harder and harder for a teenager to stand up against the popularity wave and to go his or her own way. Industry has firmly opened up a teenage market. These days every teenager can learn from newspapers and TV what a teenager should have and be. And many of today’s parents have come to award（奖励）high narks for the popularity of their children. All this adds up to great difficulty for the teenager who wants to find his or her own path.But the difficulty is worth getting over. The path is worth following. You may want to listen to classical music instead of going to a party. You may want to collect rocks when everyone else is collecting records. You may have some thoughts that you don’t care to share at once with your classmates. Well, go to it. Find yourself. Be yourself. Popularity will come-----with the people who respect you for who you are. That’s the only kind of popularity that really counts.21.The writer’s purpose in writing this passage is to tell_______.A.readers how to be popular in the worldB.parents how to control and guide their childrenC.teenagers how to learn to decide things for themselvesD.people how to understand and respect each other22. According to the writer, many teenagers think they are brave enough to act on their own, but,in fact, most of them______.A. are not sure of themselvesB.have much difficulty in understanding each otherC. dare not do thingsD. are very much afraid of getting lost23．During the teenage years, one should learn to_____.A.become different from others in as many ways as possibleB.find one’s real selfC.get into the right reason and become popularD.rebel against parentsBDo you like to eat out? Do you like to eat quickly? Do you like inexpensive food? Some people go to fast-food restaurants for these reasons. In the past, people usually went to diners（小餐馆）for these reasons. In fact, many people in the States still go to diners today for the same reasons.A man named Walter Scott had the first “diner” in 1872. It wasn’t a real diner. It was only a food cart. People on the street walked up to the cart to buy food. These carts served late-night workers who wanted a cup of coffee and a late-night meal. The meal was a sandwich or boiled eggs. In 1887, Samuel Jones built the first diner big enough to allow the customers to come inside. However, they did not sit down. Later, people built diners with counters and stools, and people sat down while they ate.Before long, many diners stayed open around the clock. In other words, people were able to eat in diner at any time. Diners changed in other ways, too. The original menu of sandwiches and coffee became bigger. It included soup, favorite dishes, and a breakfast menu. In addition, diners soon became permanent buildings. They were no longer carts on wheels.Diners today look similar to the diners of the early 1900s. They are usually buildings withlarge windows. Inside, the diners have shining counters with stools, booths, and tables and chairs. People can eat all three meals in a modern diner.Today, many people eat in fast-food restaurants such as McDonald’s and Burger King. However, the diner remains an American tradition, and thousands of people still enjoy eating there. It was popular a century ago, and it is still popular today.24. A ma n named Walter Scott had the first “diner” in 1872. Why is the word “diner” in quotationmarks(引号)？A.Because it is spelled differently from “ dinner”B.Because the first diner was not what it is nowC.Because diner was a new wordD.Because it is a special kind of restaurant25. According to paragraph 3, diners changed in __________A. Two waysB. three waysC. four waysD. five ways26. Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?A. Diners existed before a fast-food restaurantB.The menu included more food than sandwiches and coffeeC.Burger King is a fast-food restaurantD.Sandwiches became bigger27. The main idea of the passage is that ______________.A. The diner is a traditional, popular place to eat in the United StatesB. Samuel Johns built the first diner big enough to allow the customers to come insideC. American diners serve many types of food 24 hours a day to their customersD. Diners are different from fast-food restaurants in many waysCI came to study in the United States a year ago. Yet, I did not know the real American society until I was injured in a car accident because after the car accident I had to see a doctor and go to court(法庭).After the accident, my roommate called a doctor for me. I was very grateful and determined to repay him one day. But the next day, he asked me to pay him $200 for what he had done. I was astonished. He had good reason to charge me, he said. And if I wanted to collect money from the person who was responsible for my injury. I’d have to have a good lawyer. And only a good doctor can help me get a good lawyer. Now that he had helped me find a good doctor, it was only fair that I should pay him.But every time I want to see doctor, I had to wait about 50 minutes. He would see two or three patients at the same time, and often stop treating one so as to see another. Yet he charged me $115 each time. The final examination report consisted of ten lines and it cost me $215.My lawyer was all smiles the first time we met. But after that he avoided seeing me at all. He knew very well the other party was responsible for the accident, yet he hardly did anything. He simply waited to collect his money. He was so irresponsible that I decided to dismiss him. And he made pay him $770.Now I had to act as my own lawyer. Due to my inexperience, I told the insurance(保险) company the date I was leaving American. Knowing that, they played for time, and I left without getting a cent.My experience taught me two things about America: firstly, in a country like America money is everything. It is more important than friendship, honor or professional morality（职业道德）. Secondly foreigners are still being treated unfairly. So when we talk about America, we should see both its good and bad sides.28. The author’s r oommate offered to help him because ------------.A.he felt sorry for the authorB.he thought it was a chance to make some moneyC.he knew the doctor was a very good oneD.he wanted the author to have a good lawyer29. The word “charge” in this passage mea ns ----------.A. be responsibleB. accuseC. ask as a priceD. claim30. Both the doctor and the lawyer in the passage are very ----------.A. friendlyB. greedyC. professionalD. busy31. What conclusion can you draw from the story?A.Going to court is something very common in AmericaB. One must very careful while driving a carC. There are more bad sides in America than good sidesD. Money is more important than other things in AmericaDNOT all memories are sweet. Some people spend all their lives trying to forget bad experiences. Violence and traffic accidents can leave people with terrible physical and emotional scars. Often they relive these experiences in nightmares.Now American researchers think they are close to developing a pill, which will help people forget bad memories. The pill is designed to be taken immediately after a frightening experience. They hope it might reduce ,or possibly erase(抹去),the effect of painful memories.In November, experts tested a drug on people in the US and France. The drug stops the body releasing chemicals that fix memories in the brain. So far the research has suggested that only the emotional effects of memories may be reduced, not that the memories are erased.The research has caused a great deal of argument. Some think it is a bad idea, while others support it.Supporters say it could lead to pills that prevent or treat soldiers' troubling memories after war. They say that there are many people who suffer from terrible memories."Some memories can ruin people's lives. They come back to you when you don't want to have them in a daydream or nightmare. They usually come with very painful emotions," said Roger Pitman, a professor of psychiatry at Harvard Medical School. "This could relieve a lot of that suffering."But those who are against the research say that changing memories is very dangerous because memories give us our identity (特质). They also help us all avoid the mistakes of the past."All of us can think of bad events in our lives that were horrible at the time but make us who we are. I'm not sure we want to wipe those memories out, "said Rebecca Dresser, a medical ethicist.32. The passage is mainly about .A. a new medical inventionB. a new research on the pillC. a way of erasing painful memoriesD. an argument about the research on the pill33. The drug tested on people can .A. cause the brain to fix memoriesB. stop people remembering bad experiencesC. prevent body producing certain chemicalsD. wipe out the emotional effects of memories34. We can infer from the passage that .A. people doubt the effects of the pillsB. the pill will stop people's bad experiencesC. taking the pill will do harm to people's healthD. the pill has probably been produced in America35. Which of the following does Rebecca Dresser agree with?A. Some memories can ruin people's lives.B. People want to get rid of bad memories.C. Experiencing bad events makes us different from others.D. The pill will reduce people's sufferings from bad memories.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。

AFailing in something isn’t a really nice feeling, but Scotland’ s Fettes College in Edinburgh wants to show its students that failure isn’t something to fear and is actually something to accept willingly!The boarding school held “failure week” to ce lebrate taking risks and learning from them. Whether in sports or school, children often face lots of pressure to succeed and do well, and the school was becoming concerned.“Young people from all walks of life live in a high-pressure environment where they are trying very hard to achieve a level of perfection,” said Sue Bruce, head of personal and social education in the school.“This week at Fettes we have been focusing on one of the most misunderstood parts of success: failure. While we are often scared of failure, it is important to learn that it is only through failing, often many times, that we learn how to succeed. All through the week, we have looked at the experiences of some of the most successful inventors, artists and businessmen, who failed hundreds, if not thousands of times on their journey to success,” read a letter on Fettes College’s website.To celebrate failure, students were encouraged to try something they’ve never done before, like playing an instrument or dancing in front of audiences. A number of students stepped up and tried things that they finally failed in, but they had fun and enjoyed the experience. “The concert was extremely enjoyable, proving that we should always try not to worry about failure and have a go!” read another note on the website. Students were also taught about famous people like J.K. Rowling and Richard Branson who failed many times before they finished what they set out to do.“If they let the fear of failur e stop them from doing something, they are actually stoppingthemselves from learning, developing, and potentially succeeding,”said Bruce.21. What is the purpose of the boarding school to hold “failure week”?A. To get the students involved in social activities.B. To help the students accept and learn from failure.C. To make the students study even harder.D. To teach the students how to get relaxed.22. During the “failure week” the students could do the following things EXCEPT ___________?A. taking risksB. learning from others’ experiencesC. trying something newD. trying to entertain themselves23. What can we learn from the passage?A、Many successful people are lucky and achieve success easily.B、Because we are often scared of failure ,we never succeed.C、The fear of failure can stop the students from learning and succeeding.D、The students who failed in trying new things felt depressed.BHumans have been keeping animals as pets for tens of thousands of years, but Dr. Jean-LoupRault, an animal scientist at the University of Melbourne in Australia, believes new companionsare coming: robot pets.“Technology is moving very fast,” Rault told ABC News,“The Tamagotchi in the early 1990swas really the first robotic pet, and now Sony and other big companies have improved them a lot.”This may not sit well with pet lovers. After all, who would choose a plastic toy over alovely puppy? But Rault argue s that the robotic kind has a lot going for it: “You don’t haveto feed it, you don’t have to walk it, it won’t make a mess in your house, and you can go ona holiday without feeling guilty.” The technology also benefits those who are allergic to pets,short on space, or fearful of real animals.It’s not clear whether robot pets can replace real ones. But studies do suggest that wecan bond with these smart machines. People give their cars names and kids give their toy animalslife stories. It’s the sa me with robots. When Sony stopped its repair service for its robotdog Aibo in March 2014, owners in Japan held funerals.As an animal welfare researcher, Rault is concerned about how robotic pets could affect ourattitudes towards live animals. “If we become used to a robotic companion that doesn’t needfood, water or exercises, perhaps it will change how humans care about other living beings,”he said.So are dogs and cats a thing of the past, as Rault predicts? For those who grew up with livingand breathing pets, the mechanical kind might not do. But for our next generation who are inconstant touch with smart technology, a future in which lovely pets needn’t have a heartbeatmight not be a far-fetched dream.24. What does the underlined phrase “sit well with” means?A. be refused byB. be beneficial toC. make a difference toD. receive support from25. What are the advantages of robot pets?a. They are plastic and feel smooth.b. Owners needn’t w orry about them when going out.c. They can help cure allergies.d. They save space and costs.A. abB. bcC. b dD.cd26. We can learn from the passage that___________.A. Sony is the first company to produce robot pets Aibo.B. People can develop strong bond with their robot pets.C. Rault thinks robot pets still have a long way to go.D. Robot toys may help people care more about living beings.27. T he passage mainly tells us___________.A. the advantages of robot toysB. the popularity of robot petsC. living pets are dying out.D. robot pets are coming.CLee’s mother Sun became unexpectedly pregnant while married to a disabled man. Doctors told her that because of a medication she had been taking her child would not be normal. She chose to continue with the pregnancy and in 1985 in Seoul, South Korea, little Hee Ah Lee was born with only two fingers on each hand, disfigurement of her legs, and slight brain injury. The hospital told Sun that she could not care for the child at home and her relatives wanted her to place the child for adoption in a foreign country. Sun, however, thought her baby would live a successful life.When Lee was a pre-schooler, Sun wanted her daughter to take piano lessons for two reasons. One was that she felt it would help her strengthen her hands so she could hold a pencil. The other was that she felt that if she could master the piano, she could master anything. For six months piano schools turned them down and then the one teacher who did accept the task got discouraged and wanted to quit. It was a three-month contest of wills between mother and daughter that led to a conflict in which Sun actually threw her daughter on the floor in frustration. But Lee got back up on the piano bench and for the first time played a children’s song. That was the turning point and one year later Lee won the grand prize in a piano concert for Kindergartners. It was at the age of 7 that Lee won Korea’s 19th Nati onal Handicap Conquest Contest and was presented with her award by the President of Korea.Lee has won numerous awards, and is a widely traveled concert pianist with more than 200 appearances. Her first album titled “Hee-ah, a Pianist with Four Fingers”was released in June, 2008.Lee speaks highly of her mother for challenging her to master the piano and said that although her training was difficult, “As time went by, the piano became my source of inspiration and my best friend.”28. Which of the following can best describe Sun?A. stubborn and devotedB. impatient and strictC. enthusiastic and hardworkingD. honest and responsible29. What was probably in Lee’s mind when on the floor?A. Learning piano was too difficult for her.B. Life was unfair to her.C. She would try her best to learn piano.D. Her mother didn’t love her any more.30. When was Lee awarded by the president of Korea?A. 1985B. 1992C. 2008D. 200731. What’s the best title of the passage?A. A 4-finger pia nistB. Love between mother and daughterC. Learning pianoD. An abnormal girlDEvery year, millions of Americans see their personal information leak into the wrong hands. Maybe there’s spyware on the their computer, or a service they use suffered a security reach, leaving customers at the risk of exposure. Or perhaps their password is easy to guess.Don’t fear: You can easily set up proper defenses. Here’s how.● Clean Your Computer and SmartphoneBefore you put new security measures into place, make sure your devices are as spotless as possible. This means installing a good antivirus program and taking the time to clear out any spy — or malware that may ha ve already infected your system. These days, it’s also worth it to make sure your phone is safe from viruses. iPhones are less likely to be targeted by spyware, but Android users should download the Lookout app to scan their devices and ensure everything is as it should be.● Secure Your WiFiIt’s fairly easy for potential criminals to gain access to your information if they’re able to share your connection —that’s why you want to be careful when using public WiFi. Even though you put security measures into place a couple o f years ago, it’s a good idea to refresh your settings.● Use passwordsWhat you’ve heard is true: Passwords should use a variety of special characters, numerals, letters, and cases when possible.● Check the shopping securityTake care when shoppi ng online. Always check the security symbols when using an online site for shopping. If the lock icon encryption (加密) is not there, do not give out credit details. Also, check that the site is legal — never go to a site from a random email and start shopping online.Keep a separate credit card just for online shopping. This will make it easier to cancel if something bad does happen and your other credit card for “in real life” can still be used uninfluenced.Don’t store informatio n on any store’s website. It may be convenient but it’s also a possible loss to you if the site is hacked.32. This passage is mainly about ___________.A. ways of avoiding identity theftB. tips of freeing computers from virusesC. measures to ensure network securityD. steps to keep track of passwords33. To put new security measures into place, we need to ___________.A. clear out everything in the systemB. make a random selection of networkC. get rid of potential spywareD. refresh the infected system34. According to the passage, the risk of exposing personal information may possibly be causedby ___________.A. the applications of antivirus programsB. the practice of using public WiFiC. the difficult access to passwordsD. the separate credit card for online shopping35. Which of the following is an improper way to shop online?A. Adopting a unique password for every website.B. Shopping online at r eliable websites.C. Keeping credit details safe by checking security symbols.D. Monitoring credit card by storing information online.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。

AThanks for signing up for the 2014 Black Friday Turkey Trot! This email will provide some basics about the race and some great news!First, your race packet (参赛物品包) is ready and can be picked up at the Fleet Feet Sports Tulsa location you’ve specified during registration.Hours for pickup.Tuesday, 10 am to 8 pm (Fleet Feet Kings Point)Tuesday, 10 am to 7 pm (Fleet Feet Blue Dome)Wednesday, 10 am to 5 pm (both stores, closing early for Thanksgiving)Packets can also be picked up on the race day at BOK Center, beginning at 8:30 am.Race Start Times1) 5 mile, 8:30 am 2) 1 mile fun run, 9:30 amParkingThere is surface parking to the east of the BOK Center, and some surface parking to the west of the Convention Center.

Simply wear the Bib on the front of your body on the outside of your clothing so it is visible and facing forward. You don’t need to return the Bib, which is disposable.The Turkey Trot is also a kick-off event for our weekend long “FITNATIC” celebration---we also have a huge number of events and specials all weekend. For more information, please visit .See you on Friday.21. Where should a runner go to pick up his packet at 8:30 am on Friday?A. Kings Point.B. Convention Center.C. Blue DomeD. BOK Center22. How long will the FITNATIC celebration last?A. Seven days.B. Five daysC. Two daysD. One day.23. What is the purpose of the passage?A. To attract sports fans to apply for the activity.B. To inform the race participants of the activity.C. To describe details related to the activity.D. To collect money for the parking-lots.BMore than 2.25 billion cups of coffee are drunk throughout the world each day, and it’s likely that many taste bitter. Now, a new study suggests that coffee fans can make their drink sweeter by changing the color of their cups.Researchers from Oxford set out to prove whether the claim that coffee drunk from a white cup tastes biter was true. They used 36 volunteers and three different colored cups---blue, white and transparent glass--- to examine the claim.In one experiment, the white cup increased the intensity (浓度) of the coffee taste relative to the transparent cup. Then, in a second experiment, coffee drunk from the white cup was found to taste less sweet when compared to the other colored cups, while the blue cup made the coffee taste the sweetest.The scientists believe that the color brown may be associated with bitterness, and coffee in a white cup appears the brownest.“Our study clearly shows that the color of a cup does influence our sense of the coffee taste,” leading author Dr. George Doorn, wrote in an article for The Conversation. “The effect of the color of the cup on the taste of the coffee reported here suggests that cafe owners should carefully consider the color of their cups,” he said. “The potential effects may spell the difference between a one-time purchase and a return customer.”Actually, the idea that color can change the food and drink taste came out many years ago.A study published last year reported that red, strawberry-flavored cake served on a white plate was rated as 10 percent sweeter than the same food presented on a black plate.24. The passage is mainly about _____.A. the popularity of sweet coffee.B. an experiment made in Oxford.C. the effect of cup color on coffee’s tasteD. useful tips on how to make coffee.25. In which cup will coffee taste the sweetest?A. A white cup.B. A blue cup.C. A transparent cupD. A brown cup26. Café owners should consider their cups’ color in order to ______.A. reduce the daily expensesB. show their taste in coffeeC. appeal to more customersD. make their café different.27. We learn from the passage that_____.A. coffee in a white cup tastes sweeter than that in a transparent glassB. over 2 billion cups of sweet coffee are drunk worldwide each year.C. Dr. George Doorn wrote an article about making conversations.D. the idea that color could affect the taste of drink is not new.CWe should feel grateful in our heart when we accept anything others sacrifice for us. However, we often unconsciously do the opposite, which may not be regarded as returning kindness with ingratitude, but have the equal power to harm each other. In particular, the closer the relationship is, the more determined we are.Jennifer, my friend Randy’s mother, is already over 70, poor eyesight and weak legs. But due to her character, she chose to live alone in the suburbs. No matter how busily Randy works, he would go there to visit her once or twice every week.That day as soon as he parked his car, Randy smelt the delicious smell of meat coming from her mother’s house. His mother said, “Your birthday is coming next week, so I’m preparing pork trotters (猪蹄) for you!” Seeing the steaming delicious trotters, he couldn’t help complaining, “I don’t like these things at all, so fatty.”On his way back, he called me, saying that he felt sorry. In fact, he longed to thank his mother and eat up that bowl of trotters. But he felt sorry that it took her too much time and energy. If he didn’t stop her strictly, he was afraid the same thing would continue. He would rather not eat trotters any more than have his mother overwork. I understand how he felt exactly. Each of us has done like that. Because of feeling sorry for others’ sacrifice, we purposely harden our heart against accepting others’ favor and even criticize them severely in order to frighten theirgoodness away and make them never do that again.This method may work, but it will hurt each other’s feelings. It’s not wrong logically, but we always neglect another sound deep in our heart: because we’re afraid we can’t repay them, we’re unwilling to shoulder others’ goodness. So we reduce its value and refuse it severely. But to destroy others’ goodness is also to deny you.28. Randy refuse to eat the pork trotters his mother cooked because ____.A. he disliked them at allB. they were really very fatty.C. they we ren’t his favorite tasteD. he didn’t want her to overwork.29. Randy telephoned the author to _____.A. express his apology to his motherB. complain about his motherC. apologize for his rudenessD. ask for a bowl of trotters.30. According to the author, we sometimes say “no” to others’ favor so that ______.A. they can be frightened awayB. they won’t continue doing thatC. we needn’t repay them laterD. we won’t feel sorry for their sacrifice31. In the last paragraph, the author implies that we should ____.A. refuse others’ favor immediatelyB. deal with others’ favor wiselyC. repay others’ goodness activelyD. shoulder others’ goo dness completely.DFor a while, I wrote a “Tuesday tip” on my blog . It was about easy week-night dinners, organizing parties or perhaps finding time out for friends.About a year ago, I ran out of tips.The truth? As a busy working mom with five busy kids, I probably do have a few tips to share. But honestly, the bar is set pretty low---on a recent day when I was walking our dog, a stranger who knew I had five kids said, “Wow! You have a dog, too?! And it even looks like you showered today!” Yes, it’s true, I shower. Not every day, but most days. See, I’m telling the truth. Honestly, in this cold winter, I’m probably taking a shower more to warm up than to clean up.Other funny truths? I’m tired. In fact, for the past year, I’ve been too tir ed to type up any update on our life here in Lyons Den. It’s hard to arrange a career with all these kids. Although folks just believe that it must be so much easier now since all the kids are in school, I’m here to tell you, it’s not. It’s really not. When I get home from work, I’m often tearfully greeted by five kids and five homework folders filled with math facts, invitations, notices and artwork.All those happy smiling faces I share on Facebook are real. We are a happy family---thank God for that! But we’re not always smiling, and even in those rare best times when I can get all five kids looking at the camera, the odds would be that one of them isn’t wearing underwear, one is pinching (捏) someone behind the scenes and one is just perfectly pronouncing “Damn!” So, less perfectly-posed pictures, but more telling the truth. Even if only on Tuesday.32. It seems that the author’s life used to be _____.A. tiringB. busyC. relaxingD. funny33. Which of the following is true about the author?A. She can’t get along well with her neighbors.B. She’s living a happy life with her familyC. She likes to have a shower every day.D. She has already closed her blog now.34. Which of the following words can best take the place of the word odds?A. answers.B. chances.C. solutionsD. ways.35. The passage mainly talks about _____.A. the happiness of a working motherB. the worry of a working motherC. the hardship of a working motherD. the bittersweet of a working mother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。

You may not believe that such a town has shops car parks, hotels, restaurants, cafes and much more. Well, Coober Pedy in Australia is just such a place.Miners and their families choose to live like this, hoping to get rich looking for the precious stones that Australia is famous for --- opals(蛋白石). Living underground is the only way to be away from the sandstorms and the high temperatures above ground. Deep down in the town far below the desert surface, the temperature is between 19℃ and 20℃ and life is cool.Mary Deane and her husband Jim are among the lucky ones. They live in a home, built with money from the opals Jim has found. “Whenever people hear we live underground, they al ways imagine a dusty cave,” says Mary, “but they are amazed at my clean kitchen, our furniture and electrical appliances in here.”However, not everything is perfect in Coober Pedy. Mary has a tiny garden that she is very proud of, but the grass is not real. Plant life is rare. Water is five times more expensive underground than it is overground. Recycling is a way of life, so Jim usuallywashes his car with bath water and they have a special system to reuse the water from the dishwasher and washing machine.Even so, most families enjoy life in Coober Pedy. The children can make as much noise as they want and there are no complaints from the neighbors because the thick walls stop sounds from traveling. Adults enjoy the peace and quiet away from the world above.21. People in Coober Pedy live underground______.A. because of their secret identitiesB. because it is warmer undergroundC. so that they can save some moneyD. due to the terrible natural environment.22. Which word can best describe Mary’s life underground according to Paragraph 3?A. Comfortable.B. Exciting.C. Healthy.D. Lonely.23. Which is the biggest problem people in Coober Pedy have to face?A. High living expenses.B. The awfully dusty environment.C. Shortage of water and greenery.D. The extremely high temperatures24. Children enjoy the life in Coober Pedy mainly because they _____.A. enjoy traveling around with their parentsB. can get many expensive toys from their parentsC. enjoy the peace and quiet while doing their homeworkD. can enjoy themselves without disturbing their neighborsBVolunteer Day schedule:7:30 a.m.: Meet at the Community Center for breakfast.8-8:30 a.m.: Visit with people from the many participating organizations. Choose which act ivity you’d like to help wit h for the day.8:30-9 a.m.: Board the bus for your chosen activity, and ride with other volunteers to your activity site.9-12:00 a.m.: Work as a volunteer.12:00 a.m.-1 p.m.: Share lunch with your volunteer group. Don’t forget to bring food for lunch from home!1-3:30 p.m.: Continue your volunteer work.3:30 p.m.: Board the bus that will take you back to the Community Center, where you will be able to talk with other volunteers and share your experiences.See below for a list of volunteer opportunities for V olunteer Day so you can begin thinking about which activity you might want to join.Happy Homes: it provides home repairs for needy people in the form of painting. It also provides painters to create beautiful paintings inside schools of community centers.Elder Care: Elder Care sends volunteers into nursing homes to spend time with them, play board games with them, and talk with them.City Parks Association: you can help plant flowers and bushes in city parks or pick up trash around the river banks.

AVisitors worry that London is an expensive city but there really are so many free things to do here. The following ideas should get you started.All of London's major museums are free, but most offer some special exhibitions for a fee. My favorite is the Museum of London where you can learn the history of London from Roman times to today. And I love the Geffrye Museum which shows English domestic interiors and helps bring to life what it was really like to live in London.I regularly hear people tell me the Queen Mary's Rose Gardens in Regent's Park is their favorite spot in London, and who am I to argue? I would also recommend St. James's Park as it offers one of the best views of Buckingham Palace. Hyde Park is enormous and Kensington Gardens nearby includes the ever popular Diana Memorial Playground and the Peter Pan Statue.No visit to London is complete without seeing this military tradition. The Queen's Guard in London changes in the Forecourt inside the gates of Buckingham Palace at 11.30am every day in the summer and every other day in the winter. Get there early and view the spectacle from outside the front gates.Trafalgar Square is one of Britain's greatest visitor attractions and was designed by John Nash in the 1820s and constructed in the 1830s. This iconic square has many sights to see including Nelson's Column and the National Gallery. It is both a tourist attraction and the main focus for political demonstrations. Every December, Norway donates a marvelous Christmas tree, to thank Britain for liberation from the Nazis.21. Where can visitors find the Peter Pan Statue?A. in Regent's Park.B. in St. James's Park.C. in Hyde Park.D. in Kensington Gardens.22. Which of the following descriptions is True?A. In the Geffrye Museum visitors can learn the history of London from Roman times to today.B. The Queen Mary's Rose Gardens is in Buckingham Palace.C. There is the Queen's Guard change inside the gates of Buckingham Palace at 11.30 am every day all yeararound.D. Trafalgar Square is both a tourist attraction and a place for political demonstrations.23. The writer wrote the passage to ________.A .compare some free places in London. B. advertise some free places in London.C. recommend some free places in London.D. expose some free places in London.BBEIJING - A research team led by Chinese scientists have discovered dietary modulation of gut microbiota （膳食干预肠道菌群）can alleviate both genetic and simple obesity in children.The findings of the team, led by Zhao Liping with Shanghai Jiaotong University, Yin Aihua with the Guangdong province children's hospital, and Tang Huiru with Chinese Academy of Sciences, have been published on EBioMedicine, a renowned medical journal co-sponsored by Cell and The Lancet in July.The team identified bacterial genomes specifically for producing obesity-related metabolites（代谢物）, and said an improved gut microbiota can significantly help to treat genetic obesity such as Prader-Willi Syndrome (PWS).Beginning in childhood, PWS affected kids develop an insatiable appetite, leading to chronic overeating and obesity.The scientists used a diet therapy with beneficial gut bacteria on trial patients and found considerable diminished appetite, weight loss and improved health conditions on the patients.The paper concluded dysbiosis （失调）of gut microbiota is highly related with both genetic and simple obesity in children, implicating dietary modulation of gut microbiota a potentially effective treatment method.24. Which of the following factors contributes to child obesity?A. dietary modulation of gut microbiotaB. beneficial gut bacteriaC. an improved gut microbiotaD. dysbiosis of gut microbiota25. Which can replace the underlined word “diminished”？A. unsatisfiedB. increasedC. decreasedD. good26. Where is the passage extracted?A. Medicine book B Science book C. Doctor’s instructions D News report27. Which might be the best title for the passage?A. Chinese scientists discover treatment to child obesity.B .The reasons for genetic obesity in children has been found.C. Obesity-related research has been done by Chinese scientists.D. An effective treatment to obesity has been found.CGetting rid of dirt, in the opinion of most people, is a good thing. However, there is nothing fixed aboutattitudes to dirt.In the early 16th century, people thought that dirt on the skin was a means to block out disease, as medical opinion had it that washing off dirt with hot water could open up the skin and let ills in. A particular danger was thought to lie in public baths. By 1538, the French king had closed the bath houses in his kingdom. So did the king of England in 1546. Thus began a long time when the rich and the poor in Europe lived with dirt in a friendly way. Henry IV, King of France, was famously dirty. Upon learning that a nobleman had taken a bath, the king ordered that, to avoid the attack of disease, the nobleman should not go out.Though the belief in the merit of dirt was long-lived, dirt has no longer been regarded as a nice neighbor ever since the 18th century. Scientifically speaking, cleaning away dirt is good to health. Clean water supply and hand washing are practical means of preventing disease. Yet, it seems that standards of cleanliness have moved beyond science since World War Ⅱ. Advertisements repeatedly sell the idea: clothes need to be whiter than white, cloths ever softer, surfaces to shine. Has the hate for dirt, however, gone too far?Attitudes to dirt still differ hugely nowadays. Many first-time parents nervously try to warn their children off touching dirt, which might be responsible for the spread of disease.On the contrary, Mary Ruebush, an American immunologist(免疫学家)，encourages children to play in the dirt to build up a strong immune system. And the latter position is gaining some ground.28. The kings of France and England in the 16th century closed bath houses because .A. they lived healthily in a dirty environment.B. they believed disease could be spread in public bathsC. they thought bath houses were too dirty to stay inD. they considered bathing as the cause of skin disease29. Which of the following best describes Henry IV’s attitude to bathing?A. Approving.B. Afraid.C. CuriousD. Uninterested.30. How does the passage mainly develop?A. By providing examples.B. By making comparisons.C. By following the order of time.D. By following the order of importance.31. What is the author’s purpose in writing the passage?A. To stress the role of dirt.B. To introduce the history of dirt.C. To call attention to the danger of dirt.D. To present the change of views on dirt.DWelcome to your future life!You get up in the morning and look into the mirror. Your face is firm and young-looking. In 2035, medical technology is better than ever. Many people your age could live to be 150, so at 40, you’re not old at all. And your parents just had an anti-aging(抗衰老的) treatment. Now, all three of you look the same age!You say to your shirt, “Turn red.” It changes from blue to red. In 2035, “smart clothes” contain particles(粒子) much smaller than the c ells in your body. The particles can be programmed to change clothes’color or pattern.You walk into the kitchen. You pick up the milk, but a voice says, “You shouldn't drink that!” Your fridge has read the chip (芯片) that contains information about the milk , and it knows the milk is old . In 2035, every article of food in the grocery store has such a chip.It’s time to go to work. In 2035, cars drive themselves. Just tell your “smart car” where to go. On the way, you can call a friend using your jacket sle eve. Such “smart technology” is all around you.So will all these things come true? “For new technology to succeed,” says scientist Andrew Zolli,“it has to be so much better that it replaces what we have already.” The Internet is one example --- what will be the next?32. We can learn from the text that in the future__________.A. people will never get oldB. everyone will look the sameC. red will be the most popular colorD. clothes will be able to change their pattern33. What can be inferred from Paragraph 4?A. Milk will be harmful to health.B. More drinks will be available for sale.C. Milk in the grocery store will stay fresh much longer.D. Food in the grocery store will carry electronic information.34. Which of the following is mentioned in the text?A. Fridges will know what people need.B. Jacket sleeves can be used as a guide.C. Cars will be able to drive automatically.D. Nothing can replace the Internet.35. What is the text mainly about?A. Future technology in everyday life.B. Food and clothing in 2035.C. Medical treatments of the future.D. The reason for the success of new technology.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。

It seemed that they didn’t come to the right place with the young families and young couples eating that night.The little old man walked right up to the cash register, placed his order with no hesitation and then paid for their meal. The couple took a table near the back wall and started taking food off the tray. There was one hamburger, one order of French fries and one drink. The little old man unwrapped the plain hamburger and carefully cut it in half. He placed one half in front of his wife. Then he carefully counted out the French fries, divided them in two piles and neatly placed one pile in front of his wife. He took a sip at the drink and then set the cup down between them.As the man began to eat his few bites of hamburger, the crowd began to get restless. You could tell what they were talking, “That poor old couple. All they can afford is one meal for the two of them.”As the man began to eat his French fries, one young man stood and came over to the old coupl e’s table. He politely offered to buy another meal for the old couple to eat. The old man replied that they were just fine. They were used to sharing everything.As the little old man finished eating and was wiping his face neatly with a napkin, the young man could stand it no longer. Again he came over to their table and offered to buy some food.After being politely refused again, he finally asked the little old lady, “Ma’am, why aren’t you eating?

He said, “If you want people to grow up, you have to stop treating them like children.”In America, families are close but children are encouraged to be independent, to make their own decisions, even at a very early age. It’s not unusual for a child of seven to be given an allowance (津贴) every week. The child is encouraged to save some of the money but he or she can spend it on whatever they choose, for example, buying clothes, school supplies or CDs. Some teenagers even have their own credit cards! That’s a big responsibility since even adults are tempted to overspend when they have credit cards.From an early age, American children are asked for their opinions and they are included in family decision-making. At the dinner table, teenagers will be listened to on any topic, from politics to buying a new family car or where the family will go on vacation. In this way, teenagers are getting practice in becoming individuals: they are learning how to stand on their own two feet.Many Chinese young people are becoming almost as interested as American teens in searching for independence. They want to express those qualities that make them unique human beings. You can see this in the way they dress, the music they listen to and the friends they choose. “Super Girl” Li Yuchun catches the imagination of Chinese teenagers on t he “Super Girl” television contest. She is not the traditional “nice, young Chinese girl”. With her short, spiky (尖的) hair and boy-like clothes, she is telling everyone that she is different. She has the courage to be her own person and to stand on her own two feet . . . and she wins!There is an old saying, “Everyone should carefully observe which way his heart draws him and then choose that way with all his strength.” If you do this, step by step, over a period of time, you may find that you have become the person you always wanted to be.32. A child of seven is given allowance so that he can .A. be accepted as a popular guyB. learn to decide how to use moneyC. overspend money without careD. have school supplies of his own33. The author implies that many Chinese children .A. are more independent than AmericansB. should become interested in AmericaC. are happy with their present situationD. are not satisfied to be nice, quiet ones34. The main idea of the last paragraph is .A. that we should do things step by stepB. why we should understand our desiresC. what we should plan for our own lifeD. how we can manage to realize our dream35. The passage is intended to encourage the youth to .A. save money for useful thingsB. become independentC. express their great ambitionsD. make important decisions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。
