They are eating pizza, chicken wings and chips and cheering every move. They’re watching the Super Bowl.Why are Americans so crazy about American football? Well, it is more exciting than other sports. One team can lose possession of the ball in a minute, which may allow their opponents to make a touchdown(触地得分). Then that team may win the game unexpectedly.The Super Bowl also entertains its audience with a great halftime show. The football field is turned into a stage. Then an impressive performance of dancing and singing with special effects occurs.Since the Super Bowl is the most-watched TV program in America, commercial airtime is also very expensive. Big money is also spent on commercials. They draw the viewers’ attention and advertise their image or products during the commercial break.After football season, the “March Madness” begins. The NCAA (National Collegiate Athletic Association) competitions begin with 68 men’s college basketball teams. They play until the field is reduced to the “Final Four”.

The best players from all the teams play in this game.Baseball is no doubt American’s national sport. From grandpas to young kids, whole families go to ball games together.

We ate hot dogs, waved flags and sang during the 7th inning(棒球的一局) stretch.If you are not a sports fan yet, come and pick a sport or a team. Go to a ball game with your family, and cheer your team on. Sports are definitely a part of American culture one should not miss.66.

It’s not science fiction, but the dawn of a new age.Mo st people might not realize it yet, but we are already feeling the impact of what’s known as the third wave of computing. In small but significant ways it is helping us live healthier and more secure lives. If you drive a 2014 Mercedes Benz, for example, a n “intelligent” system tries to keep you from hitting a pedestrian. A farmer in Nigeria relies on weather sensors that communicate with his mobile device. Forgot your medicine? A new pill bottle from AdhereTech reminds you through text or automatic phone m essages that it’s time to take a pill.Technology is being integrated(融入) into our natural behaviors, with real-time data connecting our physical and digital worlds. With this dramatic shift in our relationship to technology, companies can adapt their products and services.To understand how revolutionary the third wave is, we ought to consider how far we have come. The first wave began when companies started to manage their operations through mainframe computer systems over 50 years ago. Then computing got “personal” in the 1980s and the 1990s with the introduction of the PC (personal computer). For the most part, computing remained immobile and lacked contextual awareness.In computing’s second wave, mobile computing and the smartphone took center stage. Billions of people, some of whom might not have had access to clean water, electricity, or even housing, were connected. Developers created applications and provided consumers with access to just about everything through their phone at the cost of a monthly data plan.As the third wave keeps developing, designers must meet the demands of consumers who want to experiment with new technology.Historically, designers have focused their attention on a product’s form and function. While that still matters, of course, the definition of a meaningful user experience has expanded significantly and will continue to do so. Instead of creating a single product, designers will need toimagine a series of connected products and services that have awareness of each other and their surroundings.74. Why are three examples given in Paragraph 2?A. To tell us that human beings are smarter and smarter.B. To illustrate the importance and necessity of technology.C. To prove that we are living healthier and more secure lives.D. To show the impact of the third wave of computing on our life.75. In the first wave of computing _____.A. companies’ operations were reliable on computer systemsB. computing had awareness of people’s needs in the contextC. people could have access to computing almost everywhereD. it was possible for people to experience computing at home76. Which of the following is a situation in the third wave of computing?A. There’s no need to create a single product.B. The definition of the user experience is more significant.C. Products and services are not independent of each other.D. The products’ form and functions are no longer important.77. What can we conclude from the passage about the new age we are facing?A. There’s a shift of attention from people’s physical worlds to their digital worlds.B. There’s closer relationship between technology and people’s natural behaviours.C. People live more happily with the convenience brought by advanced technology.D. People become lazier with the products that can think and respond to their needs.Section CDirections: Read the passage carefully. Then answer the questions or complete the statements in the fewest possible words.How many hours do you spend sitting in a chair every day? Eight hours in the office plus three hours in front of the TV after work is the usual situation for many people.You probably don’t need an expert to tell you that sitting too much is not good for your health —from an increased risk of heart disease and obesity(肥胖) in the long term, to reduced cholesterol(胆固醇) maintenance in the short term, not to mention the pressure on your neck and spine(脊柱).To make matters worse, a growing body of research suggests that the negative effects of sitting too much cannot be countered with a good diet and regular exercise, according to an article in The New York Times. The article reported that a study of nearly 9, 000 Australians found that for each additional hour of television a person watched per day, the risk of dying rose by 11 percent. In other words, sitting is killing us.Stand up for health. Health experts suggest we break up those many hours spent sitting with more hours spent standing.The BBC and the University of Chester in the UK conducted a simple experiment with a small group of 10 volunteers who usually spent most of the day sitting. They were asked to stand for at least three hours a day. The researchers took measurements on days when the volunteers stood, and when they sat around. When they looked at the data, there were some striking differences. Blood sugar became level after a meal much quicker on the days when the volunteersin the study stood compared with the days they spent in a chair. Standing also burned more calories(热量单位：卡路里)—about 50 calories an hour. Over the course of a year that would add up to about 30, 000 extra calories, or around 3.63 kilograms of fat.John Buckley, a member of the research team, said that although doing exercise offers many proven benefits, our bodies also need the constant, almost imperceptible(感觉不到的) increase in muscle activity that standing provides. Simple movement helps us to keep our all-important blood sugar under control.The researchers believe that even small adjustments, like standing while talking on the phone, going over to talk to a colleague rather than sending an e-mail, or simply taking the stairs instead of the elevator, will help.(Note: Answer the questions or complete the statements in NO MORE THAN TEN WORDS.) 78. According to the context, the underlined expression “be countered with” in Paragraph 3 canbest be replaced by “________”.79. The two findings of the simple experiment conducted by the BBC and the University ofChester in the UK are that standing _________.80. Why is standing better than doing exercise according to John Buckley?81. What does the passage mainly want to tell us?第Ⅱ卷（共47分）I.

They are eating pizza, chicken wings and chips and cheering every move. They're watching the Super Bowl.Why are Americans so crazy about American football？Well, it is more exciting than other sports. One team can lose possession of the ball in a minute, which may allow their opponents to make a touchdown（触地得分）. Then that team may win the game unexpectedly.The Super Bowl also entertains its audience with a great halftime show. The football field is turned into a stage. Then an impressive performance of dancing and singing with special effects occurs.Since the Super Bowl is the most-watched TV program in America, commercial airtime is also very expensive. Big money is also spent on commercials. They draw the viewers' attention and advertise their image or products during the commercial break.After football season, the "March Madness" begins. The NCAA （National Collegiate Athletic Association） competitions begin with 68men's college basketball teams. They play until the field is reduced to the "Final Four". The winning team becomes the national champion. The NBA （National Basketball Association） All-Star game is also held in February. The best players from all the teams play in this game.Baseball is no doubt American's national sport. From grandpas to young kids, whole families go to ball games together.

It's not science fiction, but the dawn of a new age.Most people might not realize it yet, but we are already feeling the impact of what's known as the third wave of computing. In small but significant ways it is helping us live healthier and more secure lives. If you drive a 2014 Mercedes Benz, for example, an "intelligent" system tries to keep you from hitting a pedestrian. A farmer in Nigeria relies on weather sensors that communicate with his mobile device. Forgot your medicine? A new pill bottle from AdhereTech reminds you through text or automatic phone messages that it's time to take a pill.Technology is being integrated（融入） into our natural behaviors, with real-time data connecting our physical and digital worlds. With this dramatic shift in our relationship to technology, companies can adapt their products and services.To understand how revolutionary the third wave is, we ought to consider how far we have come. The first wave began when companies started to manage their operations through mainframe computer systems over 50 years ago. Then computing got "personal" in the 1980s and the 1990s with the introduction of the PC （personal computer）. For the most part, computing remained immobile and lacked contextual awareness.In computing's second wave, mobile computing and the smartphone took center stage. Billions of people, some of whom might not have had access to clean water, electricity, or even housing, were connected. Developers created applications and provided consumers with access to just about everything through their phone at the cost of a monthly data plan.As the third wave keeps developing, designers must meet the demands of consumers who want to experiment with new technology.Historically, designers have focused their attention on a product's form and function. While that still matters, of course, the definition of a meaningful user experience has expanded significantly and will continue to do so. Instead of creating a single product, designers will need to imagine a series of connected products and services that have awareness of each other and their surroundings.(1) Why are three examples given in Paragraph 2?A. To tell us that human beings are smarter and smarter.B. To illustrate the importance and necessity of technology.C. To prove that we are living healthier and more secure lives.D. To show the impact of the third wave of computing on our life.(2) In the first wave of computing.A. companies'operations were reliable on computer systemsB. computing had awareness of people's needs in the contextC. people could have access to computing almost everywhereD. it was possible for people to experience computing at home(3) Which of the following is a situation in the third wave of computing?A. There's no need to create a single product.B. The definition of the user experience is more significant.C. Products and services are not independent of each other.D. The products'form and functions are no longer important.(4) What can we conclude from the passage about the new age we are facing?A. There's a shift of attention from people's physical worlds to their digital worlds.B. There's closer relationship between technology and people's natural behaviours.C. People live more happily with the convenience brought by advanced technology.D. People become lazier with the products that can think and respond to their needs.五、阅读表达（共4小题，每题2分，满分8分）8、【来源】 2014年上海崇明县高三二模第78~81题8分How many hours do you spend sitting in a chair every day? Eight hours in the office plus three hours in front of the TV after work is the usual situation for many people.You probably don't need an expert to tell you that sitting too much is not good for your health-from an increased risk of heart disease and obesity（肥胖） in the long term, to reduced cholesterol（胆固醇）maintenance in the short term, not to mention the pressure on your neck and spine（脊柱）.To make matters worse, a growing body of research suggests that the negative effects of sitting too much cannot be countered with a good diet and regular exercise, according to an article in The New York Times. The article reported that a study of nearly 9, 000Australians found that for each additional hour of television a person watched per day, the risk of dying rose by 11percent. In other words, sitting is killing us.Stand up for health. Health experts suggest we break up those many hours spent sitting with more hours spent standing.The BBC and the University of Chester in the UK conducted a simple experiment with a small group of 10volunteers who usually spent most of the day sitting. They were asked to stand for at least three hours a day. The researchers took measurements on days when the volunteers stood, and when they sat around.When they looked at the data, there were some striking differences. Blood sugar became level after a meal much quicker on the days when the volunteers in the study stood compared with the days they spent in a chair. Standing also burned more calories（热量单位：卡路里）-about 50calories an hour. Over the course of a year that would add up to about 30, 000extra calories, or around 3.63kilograms of fat.John Buckley, a member of the research team, said that although doing exercise offers many proven benefits, our bodies also need the constant, almost imperceptible（感觉不到的） increase in muscle activity that standing provides. Simple movement helps us to keep our all-important blood sugar under control.The researchers believe that even small adjustments, like standing while talking on the phone, going over to talk to a colleague rather than sending an e-mail, or simply taking the stairs instead of the elevator, will help.（Note: Answer the questions or complete the statements in NO MORE THAN TEN WORDS. ）(1) According to the context, the underlined expression "be countered with" in Paragraph 3can best be replacedby"".(2) The two findings of the simple experiment conducted by the BBC and the University of Chester in the UK are thatstanding.(3) Why is standing better than doing exercise according to John Buckley?(4) What does the passage mainly want to tell us?六、翻译句子（共5小题，1-3题每题4分，4-5题每题5分，满分22分）9、【来源】 2014年上海崇明县高三二模第82~86题22分Translation Directions.(1) 你认为有必要采取措施保护上海方言吗? （it）(2) 提前做出周密计划可以帮你更有效地完成这项艰巨任务。

Most of the energy which we are using for heating lighting, transportation and manufacturing (工业生产) is from fossil fuels (化石燃料). These are carbon-based (碳基燃料) fuels from oils, coal and natural gas. When we burn these fuels we release (释放) heat which p___1____ the energy.There are three major disadvantages to using these fuels. Firstly, they are causing climate problems because of the g___2____ effect. When we burn fossil fuels they produce carbon dioxide (二氧化碳) which causes global warming. Secondly, when we have used up all our coal, oil and natural gas, we will have n___3____ left to burn. Thirdly, they are not very efficient. The internal combustion engine that we use in most cars, trucks and buses, for example, is only about 14% efficient.Scientists are working on an alternative (替代的) fuel—hydrogen (氢). There are a number of advantages to using hydrogen as a fuel. Firstly, because two thirds of the e___4____surface is water and water is made of hydrogen and oxygen (氧). There is an almost unlimited (无限的) supply of hydrogen. Secondly, burning hydrogen does not cause global warming. Thirdly it is much more efficient than carbon-based fuels.Unfortunately there are problems with hydrogen at the present time: there is the problem of separating it from water c___5____, if it is too expensive, we can not afford to use it; and there is the difficulty of storing it. It can be stored under pressure but high pressure tanks are far from sage. It can also be stored as a liquid but only at extremely（非常）low temperatures. It seems likely, therefore, that there will have to be completely new technologies before hydrogen replaces fossil fuels. S___6____ these problems is an urgent matter.

Sometimes makeup artists have only fifteen minutes to p____3____ twenty actors for a crowd scene. Their work must always be careful and good, so you don’t notice it when you watch the movie.Special effects coordinator (协调人): Making impossible things look realAfter a movie, people often ask, ―How did they do that?‖In films, people can fly, dinosaurs walk through cities, and spaceships travel to other p____4_____ in outer space. These are all the work of the special effects coordinator. Some special effects, especially in science fiction movies, are made with computers. O___5____ are made by machines, which can make a rainy day or a snowy night at any time of the year. Fires and explosions in movies are all created with special effects.Foley artist: Creating the sounds of the cinemaThink of your favourite scary movie and its sounds – footsteps, loud rain, and creaking doors.

ActiveThe sports utility vehicle (SUV多用途车辆) was invented in the early 1990s. It quickly became very popular in the United States. There are several r 1 for this. It is larger than most of cars. It can carry lots of people, bicycles, toys, dogs and other things. This makes it popular with families. It also has four doors and a big back door, so getting in or out is e 2 . Since an SUV is taller than most cars, the driver can see above other cars and have a better sight of the road. With a lot more p 3 , an SUV can go faster than most cars. It can also go on very rough roads where other cars cannot go.The SUV is popular with many people, but other people do not like these cars. First, they are larger than most other cars. This means that drivers of other cars may not be able to see the road w 4 . Also, SUVs are very heavy. If an SUV gets into an accident with a small car, the small car may be in s 5 trouble. Another problem with SUVs is that they are very expensive. They are expensive to buy --- about 50 percent more expensive than an average small car. They are also expensive to use, since they use a lot more gasoline (汽油) than smaller cars.There are two ways to solve these problems. One way is to change the way we think about them. Now they are sold as large cars. In the future, maybe they should be sold as trucks. Then people with just a car license could not d 6 them. They would have to get a truck license. These licenses are more expensive and difficult to get, so p 7 fewer people would buy SUVs. The other way to solve SUV problems is to make them differently. Some people think that car companies should make big SUVs smaller and less dangerous. They should also make SUVs with less powerful engines. Then they would not use so much gasoline.1. r_____________2. e_______________3. p______________4. w____________5. s_______________6. d_____________7. p______________Key:1. reasons2. easier/easy3. power4. well5. serious6. drive7. probably/perhapsLibraries give kids a quiet and safe place to read and to learn. For more than 100 years, libraries have played an important role in Americans’ e 1 . But how are these book-filled buildings changing with the times? You may be surprised to find out.Benjamin Franklin famously founded America’s first lending library in 1731. But the public library system got its b 2 development in the American history in the late 1800’s. Businessman Andrew Carnegie donated (捐赠) millions of dollars to help build free public libraries across the country. Between 1886 and 1919, Carnegie’s donations helped build 1,679 new libraries.Carnegie believed in the chances that libraries could o 3 Americans, young and old. He knew that the more libraries there were, the more people would have access（接触的机会）to books, lectures, news and more.Chances are that there is a public library in or near your c 4 . You can easily find one close to your home. After all, the United States has 9,225 public libraries. Today, libraries keep growing. Seven out of ten libraries have free Internet. This opens many doors for people who cannot go online at home,i 5 the opportunity to apply for jobs online.Libraries are also teaching kids about the fun of reading. The new program Read! Build! Play! adds reading into playtime. As kids listen to a book being read aloud, they use Legos (乐高积木) to build images from the story h 6 . Today’s libraries are always looking for creative programs to bring people into the library.Benjamin Franklin once said, ―The doors of wisdom are never s7 .‖ As long as the doors of public libraries are open, what he said is most certainly correct!1. e_____________2. b_______________3. o______________4. c____________5. i_______________6. h_____________7. s______________Key:1. education2.biggest3.offer4. community5. including6.happily7. shutI didn’t think I had a passion (激情). I would sit in front of the TV all day, thinking about nothing but the next show.It was not long ago that I first learned how important having a passion is to life.On that day I went with my mum to drive my sister to the gym. I was bored. Then, as my mum stopped at a red light, s 1 on the side of the road caught my eye. It was a man dressed in rags (衣衫褴褛). He was homeless. That didn’t interest me, for I had seen many like him b 2 .But in some ways he was d 3 . This man was not sitting down with a sad expression. He had a radio in his hand and was dancing h 4 to the music. The radio seemed to be the most precious (珍贵)thing he had.― Mum, why does that man have a radio even thought he’s homeless?‖ I asked.―He bought it,‖ she replied.―But if he’s homeless, why doesn’t he use the money to buy food or clothes? He w 5 it on something he doesn’t need.‖―Well, Sarah, sometimes food and clothes aren’t the most important things. We need happiness, too.‖That man must c 6 enough music to buy a radio instead of food or clothes. I soon realized that happiness is the k 7 to life.Without it, there’s nothing to look forward to.
