It was going to be great! I would lie on the beach in the sun. Perhaps I would surf a little or ride my bike around Coronado Island.Meanwhile, I would spend every morning, Monday through Friday, teaching YMCA (Young Men‟s Christian Association) kids how to play tennis…for FREE. Since college wasn‟t too far off, and since I had practically zero hours of community service, my volunteering at the YMCA was smart. I like tennis and I even kind of like little kids. Anyway, life was going to be amazing for those three weeks.On my first day at the YMCA, I was shocked by the smallness of the children. The kids could barely grasp a racket(球拍), let alone swing one. This is when it occurred to me how potentially terrible the situation was—a group of thirty small children with rackets in hand and only four coaches. The odds were definitely against us. Luckily, the kids did not have blood on their minds, and they were relatively obedient and cooperative.It soon became painfully obvious that I was the only “coach” actually coaching. Rather ironic when one considered that I was the only one of the four NOT being paid. I must admit, however, that despite all of my efforts these children were not getting much. I had to keep telling myself that while I couldn‟t enjoy the fruits of my labor at the moment, I would be reveling in the benefits once college application time came. Thus, I soldiered on.As I returned home the day before the opening of school, I had complete peace of mind. Although I did not spend every day at the beach as I had initially hoped to do, I did accomplish several things and I felt as if I were a better person because of my three weeks in San Diego.56. Before going to San Diego the author was full of ______.A. expectationB. confidenceC. doubtD. curiosity57. The author taught YMCA kids to play tennis because she ______.A. loved small children and was active as a volunteerB. must do community service to be admitted to collegeC. wanted to earn some money to pay for her college feesD. would like to do something for others as a sincere Christian58. The underlined words “I soldiered on” reflec t the author‟s ______.A. desire to join the armyB. love for teaching tennisC. control for young learnerD. determination not to give up59. According to the last paragraph, we can predict that the author will ______ in the future.A. become a teacherB. move to the beachC. play tennis professionallyD. help others more willinglyBLICENSE AGREEMENTBy installing(安装) the software, you acknowledge that you have read all of the terms and conditions of this agreement and agree to be bound by them.

These lionfish are what scientists call an invasive(侵入的) species(物种) or an “alien invader.”Local divers off the coast of North Carolina were not expecting to see what they found one day in August 2002—the beautiful lionfish, common to the warm waters of the western Pacific, but unknown of the Carolina coast. They provided the first solid evidence that lionfish were in the Atlantic.A year later, scientists documented 19 lionfish sightings at eight locations along the North Carolina continental shelf. Then, lionfish were observed off the coasts of Florida, Georgia, and South Carolina, and even as far north as Long Island, New York! Between 2000 and 2003, lionfish sightings were reported at 16 different shipwrecks and natural hard bottom locations. During a summer 2004 research expedition, NOAA(The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration) scientists collected 155 lionfish at 19 different locations off the North Carolina coast alone. The jump in numbers and distributions over such a short time strongly indicates that the lionfish is reproducing in the Atlantic Ocean. If this is true, it‟s the first time tha t a western Pacific fish has populated the U.S. Atlantic coast.These lionfish were likely released on purpose when people no longer wanted them! The swift and warm Gulf Stream, which transported the floating lionfish eggs from Florida northward, helped th e lionfish‟s Atlantic journey. In Florida waters and along the continental shelf near the Gulf Stream the temperatures are very similar to the lionfish‟s native waters.However, from north Florida upward, the waters along the coastline are too cold in the winter for lionfish to survive. Scientists expect them to survive the winter only at water depths greater than 120ft because this is where the Gulf Stream has influence all year long. Very importantly, the types of predators(食肉动物) and competitors present in the Atlantic are very different from the native range of the lionfish. Generally, the lionfish have not been found to endanger marine ecosystems because they were not likely to survive long.63. Scientists call the lionfish an “alien invader” because t he lionfish ______.A. have damaged the native speciesB. are able to live in a new environmentC. came from one place and spread to anotherD. will attack other species with their poisonous teeth64. How does the author support the reproducing of lionfish in the Atlantic in Para.3?A. By analyzing causes.B. By providing figures.C. By raising questions.D. By expressing opinions.65. Which of the following is the main idea of the passage?A. Lionfish got into the Atlantic Ocean in 2002.B. Lionfish will not live long in the new environment.C. Lionfish is a popular aquarium fish in the United States.D. Lionfish has been populating the waters of the Atlantic Ocean.66. What is the author‟s attitude towards the lionfish invasion?A. Serious.B. Disapproving.C. Optimistic.D. Indifferent.DWhy Laughter MattersAlthough most people believe that laughter is one of the nature‟s great treatments for a whole range of mental and physical diseases, it is still a serious scientific subject that researchers are trying to figure out.“Laughter above all else is a social thing,” says Baltimore neuroscientist, Robert Provine, who has studied laughter for decades. “All laughter groups laugh …ha-ha-ha‟ basically the same way. Whether you speak Mandarin, French or English, everyone will understand laughter. There is a pattern generator(发生器) in our brain that produces this sound.”Laughing is our first way of communicating. Babies laugh long before they speak. No one teaches them how to laugh. They just do. People may laugh at a prank(恶作剧) on April Fools‟ day. But surprisingly, only 10 to 15 percent of laughter is the result of someone making a joke. Laughter is mostly about social responses rather to a joke. Deaf people laugh without hearing and people on cell phones laugh without seeing, showing that laughter isn‟t dependent on single sense but on social interactions.And laughter is not just a people thing. Chimps tickle(挠痒) each other and even laugh when another chimp pretends to tickle them.Jaak Panksepp, a Bowling Green University Psychology professor, studies rats that laugh when he tickles them. It turns out rats love to be tickled—they return again and again to the hands of researchers tickling them.By studying rats, sc ientists can figure out what‟s going on in the brain during laughter. Northwestern University biomedical engineering professor, Jeffrey Burgdorf has found that laughter in rats produces a chemical that acts as an antidepressant(抗抑郁药). He thinks the same thing probably happens in humans, too. This would give doctors a new chemical target to develop drugs that can fight depression.Even so, laughter itself has not been proved to be the best medicine, experts said. Margaret Stuber, a professor at University of California, studied whether laugher helped patients. She found that distraction(分心) and mood improvement helped, but she could not find a benefit of laughter alone.“No study has shown that laughter produces a direct health benefit,” Provine said, largely because it‟s hard toseparate laughter from just feeling good. But he thinks it doesn‟t really matter: “Isn‟t the fact that laughter feels good when you do it enough?”67. The most important finding of Robert Provine‟s research is that ______.A. laughter makes a person feel goodB. laughter depends on different sensesC. laughter is a quality people are born withD. laughter is a social response shared by all creatures68. According to the passage, scientists studied rats in order to find ______.A. if they can laughB. if they like laughingC. what laughter in rats producesD. how rats react while being tickled69. What can we learn from the passage?A. Patients will recover if they laugh enough.B. Laughter is a means of communication as well as language.C. A new medicine has been developed based on the laughter research.D. Scientists can know what is happening in a human brain when he laughs.70. Which of the following shows the structure of the passage?A.B. C.D. CP P1P2 P3 C SpSp P1 CP Sp2 P2 Sp1 C CP P1 P2 CSp1 Sp2 CP P1 P2 P3 CCP: Central point P: Point Sp: Sub-point(次要点) C: ConclusionSeeing with SoundAccording to a British news report, some blind peop le may finally get a chance to “see”. __71 Dr. Peter Meijer, a scientist at Philips Research Laboratories in the Netherlands, has developed a new system called the vOICe. The three middle letters in vOICe stand for “Oh, I see.” Meijer‟s groundbreaking te chnology may change the lives of visually impaired (视力障碍) people all over the world.A wearable setup of vOICe system consists of a head-mounted camera, stereo headphones and a notebook PC. The system translates visual images from a camera into complex sounds. __72The program is based on the theory that people can hear certain sounds and learn to translate them into meaningful mental images. Everything has its own unique sound. 73 The height of an object or person could be determined by pitch(音调). And a built-in color identifier speaks out color names when it is turned on. What the VOICE users had to learn is which sound went with which object. Meijer says that he is counting on the brain‟s ability to adapt.__74 Within two weeks, most people who experiment with the VOICE system are able to identify objects such as walls and doors. They are also able to identify certain situations, including whether the lights in a room are on or off. 75 Meijer thinks that translating will eventually become automatic for many users of the VOICE, bringing a form of vision to them for the very first time.A. Brighter areas sound louder than darker areas.B. It then sends these sounds to a person through headphones.C. However, they are not learning to see with their eyes; they are learning to see with their ears.D. The VOICE system is aiming to treat blindness by translating images from a camera into audio signals.E. Meijer supposes that the brain is interested in the information “content”, but not the information “carrier”.F. To evaluate the new system‟s effectiveness, a number of visually impaired people were chosen to test theVOICE.G. Over time, some users have even learned to “watch” television or “recognize” the outlines of buildings as theywalk.第四部分：书面表达(共两节，35分)第一节情景作文(20分)假设你是红星中学高二（1）班的学生李华。

I thought he was going for a job interview. In the end he bought a small box of 46 for hislittle son and seated him down in the corner. I could tell the boy was feeling down and only could 47 with a bit of cheering up. Seeing that the kid sat there for quite a while, I was abit 48 as the poor little kid was sitting 49 his own. People watched him and some kids even came over to pick on him. Iwas 50 to see one of them even knocked his cookies off the table. He quickly went and got them back without saying a word. I was hoping his father would 51 up and come back for his son’s 52 . At closing time, the only person left was the little boy. After a while, the father finally came in with a tiresome look.

Years ago, like you, I found myself extremely frustrated with my pillow going flat. Most pillows are designed to break down. I would wake up in the morning with a sore arm, my neck would hurt, my fingers would be numb, and I would toss and turn all night not knowing why. I tried many different pillows on the market and none of them worked. So, I started to research pillows and study sleep disorders.I was determined to create the world’s healthiest, most comfortable,and strongest pillow. My Pillow uses our unique, patented medical fill that stays cool, corresponds to your exact individual needs regardlessof sleep position, and stays healthy for your full 10-year guarantee. It is non-allergic, and you can wash and dry it as easily as your favorite jeans.My Pillow is not available in stores. I have spent the last seven years selling My Pillow face-to-face at fairs, expos and events. Hundreds of experts and medical doctors carry and recommend them fortheir patients. I have been featured on medical talk shows that air around the world. I have sold hundreds of thousands of pillows and have received great gratitude from satisfied customers regarding how MyPillow has changed their lives and provided a more comfortable, restful sleep.And, My Pillow comes in different sizes and is fit for your sizeand sleeping pattern. So you can be assured that you will have the most comfortable pillow for you.I truly believe it is the best pillow in the world and that if everyone had one and got better sleep, the world would be a much nicer place.56. What makes My Pillow unique?A. It is easily washed and dried.B. It suits your sleeping position.C. It contains special cooling medicine.D. It helps you stay healthy for 10 years.57. Where can people probably buy My Pillow?A. At fairs.B. In stores.C. In markets.D. On the Internet.58. What is the author’s purpose in writing this article?A. To introduce a comfortable pillow.B. To encourage people to buy My Pillow.C. To give some advice on sleeping problems.D. To tell us how to select a comfortable pillow.BFor or Against? — That Is the QuestionAndy is the most unreasonable and he makes me so angry that I could even scream sometimes! Of course, I sort of have to love him because he is my twin brother. Andy and Amy (that is me) have the same curly hair and dark eyes and are equally stubborn. Yet, on most issues we usually take opposite positions.Just this week in our school, there was a heated discussion on whether to adopt a school dress code. Every student would be required to wear a uniform. The teachers are divided: Some are in favor of the uniforms while others are opposed. The principal has asked the students to express their opinions by voting on the issue before decisions are made. But she will have the final word on the dress code.I think a dress code is a good idea. The reason is simple. Theless I have to decide first thing in the morning, the better. I can’t tell you how many mornings I look into my closet and just stare, unable to decide what to wear.Andy is shocked at my opinion. Last night, he even dragged out my parents’ high school photo albums to show me how brilliant they looked without uniforms! He also declared, “Bruce Springsteen never wore a school uniform. B ob Dylan wouldn’t have been caught dead in a school uniform! Besides, when I am feeling political, I want to be able to wear clothes made of natural, undyed fibers, sewn or assembled in countries that do not pollute the environment or exploit child labor. If I have to wear a uniform, I won’t feel like me!”To that I replied, “So your personal heroes didn’t wear school uniforms. But they went to high school about a million years ago! I feel sorry for you since I had no idea that your ego(自我) is so fragile thatit would be completely destroyed by a uniform.” That really made him angry and he shouted, “You’re just copying what you hear that new music teacher saying because you are crazy about him!”Fortunately, the bell rang before we could do each other physical harm, and we went to our separate classes. The vote for or against uniforms took place later that day. The results of the vote and the principal’s decision will be announced next week. I wonder what it will be. I know how I voted, and I’m pretty sure I know howAndy voted. How would you vote—for or against?59. Amy and Andy often get angry with each other because______.A. they’re both stubbornB. they like different teachersC. they always hold different viewsD. they don’t like each other very much60. Amy holds the idea that _______.A. school clothing should reflect parents’ valuesB. teenagers should never follow the latest clothing fashionC. wearing school uniforms means one makes less decision every morningD. the way one dresses should be an expression of one’s personality61. Who will decide whether the students should wear uniforms?A. The principal.B. Their parents.C. Their teachers.D. Students themselves.62. In Paragraph 5, Amy aims to say that______.A. Andy shouldn’t look up to his heroes so muchB. our clothes should decide people’s attitudes towards usC. Andy’s lack of self-confidence is reflected in his clothingD. our clothes shouldn’t determine how we feel about ourselves。

Each step 42 an increase in the difficulty of a child’s conceptual and learning abilities. During the early stages of childhood, from infancy to about five, the child learns simple skills including using the toilet, bathing and dressing himself 43 . At this stage, he also learns to be very observant, curious, imaginative and creative. His ability to remember things also 44 at this stage. He remembers details that an adult may have difficulty in remembering. Gradually, he learns 45 skills in problem-solving. At school, particular in art classes, the child is especially creative. Given a piece of paper and some colored pencils, he draws a variety of 46 from his surroundings as well as from his family circle. It is not surprising to see a child draw a 47 to represent an abusive father, and an angel to represent a loving and caring mother.As he graduates to the later stages of childhood bordering on the teenage years, the child learns the 48 of human relations and socialization by interacting with his peers—his friends and schoolmates. He also learns to 49 with new life situations, including dates and part-time work. Given a tight schedule of schoolwork, the child learns to prepare his own schedules of work and play; the more practical and less serious ones manage to take time out of their busy schedules of assignments, reports and tests and examinations to go with their friends on relaxation entertainment.III.

Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.(A)The seventh-inning stretch is one baseball tradition that helps make the game one of America’s favorite pastimes. In the middle of the seventh inning（局）fans ritualistically stand and stretch before the home team comes to bat.No one really knows the origin of the custom, but there are theories on how it started. Baseball historian Dan Daniel provided this explanation: “It probably began as an expression of fatigue. That would explain why the stretch comes late in the game instead of at the halfway point.”A more popular story involves President William Howard Taft and the birth of two baseball traditions. According to the account, Taft attended the first game of the 1910 baseball season. On the spur of the moment, plate umpire（裁判）Billy Evans gave Taft the ball. He asked him to throw it over the plate. Taft did so, and the custom of having the president launch the baseball season with the first pitch was born.The story continues that later that same day, President Taft, who weighed well over 300 pounds, became uncomfortable in his small chair. In the middle of the seventh inning, he stood up to stretch his legs. The crowd thought that the president was leaving, so they stood up out of respect. A few moments later, Taft sat down again. The fans followed, and the seventh-inning stretch was born. What a day for traditions!No matter how the tradition began, fans have since added to the fun. Now, as they stand to stretch during the seventh inning, they can sing along to Jack Norworth’s 1927 version of the song “Take Me Out to the Ball Game” after the visiting team has batted.65.

It was said that the first thread was made from animal muscle and sinew. And the earliest needles were made from bones. Since those early days, many people have been involved in the process of developing a machine that could do the same thing more quickly and with greater efficiency.Charles Wiesenthal, who was born in Germany, designed and received a patent on a double-pointed needle that eliminated the need to turn the needle around with each stitch(缝合) in England in 1755. Other inventors of that time tried to develop a functional sewing machine, but each design had at least one serious imperfection.Frenchman Barthelemy Thimonnier finally engineered a machine that really worked. However, he was nearly killed by a group of angry tailors when they burned down his garment factory. They feared that they would lose their jobs to the machine.American inventor Elias Howe, born on July 9, 1819, was awarded a patent for a method of sewing that used thread from two different sources. Howe’s machine had a needle with an eye at the point, and it used the two threads to make a special stitch called a lockstitch. However, Howe faced difficulty in finding buyers for his machines in America. In frustration, he traveled to England to try to sell his invention there. When he finally returned home, he found that dozens of manufacturers were adapting his discovery for use in their own sewing machines.Isaac Singer, another American inventor, was also a manufacturer who made improvements to the design of sewing machines. He invented an up-and-down-motion mechanism that replacedthe side-to-side machines. He also developed a foot treadle(脚踏板) to power his machine. This improvement left the sewer’s hands free. Undoubtedly, it was a huge improvement of the hand-cranked machine of the past. Soon the Singer sewing machine achieved more fame than the others for it was more practical, it could be adapted to home use and it could be bought on hire-purchase. The Singer sewing machine became the first home appliance, and the Singer company became one of the first American multinationals.However, Singer used the same method to create a lockstitch that Howe had already patented. As a result, Howe accused him of patent infringement（侵犯）. Of course, Elias Howe won the court case, and Singer was ordered to pay Howe royalties（版税）. In the end, Howe became a millionaire, not by manufacturing the sewing machine, but by receiving royalty payments for his invention.72. Barthelemy Thimonni er’s garment factory was burned down because _____________.A. people did not know how to put out the fireB. Elias Howe thought Thimonnier had stolen his inventionC. the sewing machines was couldn’t work finallyD. workers who feared the loss of their jobs to a machine set fire73. Which of the following is NOT TRUE according to the passage?A. Singer is an American inventor and manufacturer.B. The Singer sewing company became more practical.C. The foot treadle helped to make the sewer’s hands free.D. Singer made improvements to the design of sewing machines.74. Why did the court force Isaac Singer to pay Elisa Howe a lifetime of royalties?A. Because the judge was against Singer for his surly attitude.B. Because Howe had already patented the lockstitch used by Singer.C. Because Singer had borrowed money from Howe and never repaid it.D. Because Singer and Howe had both invented the same machine.75. Which of the following would be the best title for this passage?A. A Stitch in Time Saves NineB. The Case between Howe and SingerC. Patent Laws on the Sewing MachineD. The Early History of the Sewing MachineSection CDirections: Read the following text and choose the most suitable heading from A-F for each paragraph.

It is attended by around 800 delegates each year and includes plenary sessions by eminent practitioners, a large number of workshops, talks and round table discussions given by able speakers, as ELT Exhibition and Pre-Conference Events organized by Special Interest Groups.79.Members can join any number of the 10 Special Interest Groups (SIGs) including: FLT Teaching & Learning Policy; FLT Curriculum & Syllabus Study; Coherence Research on Primary-secondary School and Secondary-Tertiary Transition; Primary School Classroom Instruction Model; Secondary School Classroom Instruction Model; Modern IT in FLT; Applied Linquistics; FL Learning Strategies; FL Teacher Development and Training; FL Textbook, Materials and Teaching Aids Design.80.IATEFL China has associate agreements with other teachers’ associations throughout the world. Among other things, there are usual agreements to exchange newsletters and to provide a speaker to attend each other’s conference at least once every year. More so, committee members from IATEFL China are willing to attend the conferences, meetings, etc. of related associations upon invitation.Section DDirections: Read the passage carefully. Then answer the questions or complete the statements in the fewest possible words.Relations between the United States and Spain were not very good in 1898. On February 15, a battleship called the USS Maine blew up and sank in the harbor at Havana, Cuba. More than 260 Americans were killed. Many Americans thought that Spanish saboteurs (破坏者) had set an underwater mine that caused the explosion.Witnesses and survivors had different versions of what happened. Some said that they heard two explosions. It was discovered that the magazine—which is a storage place for arms, ammunition(军火), and explosives—had exploded. Questions were raised about what caused the first explosion. Did the first explosion come from outside the ship, causing the magazine to explode? Or, did something on the ship blow up the magazine?Other witnesses said that there was only one explosion. If they are right, then what on the ship caused the magazine to explode? A theory supporting the two-explosion version was that rebels from Cuba had caused the explosion. The rebels were aware of the bad feelings between the United States and Spain. They would have been willing to cause trouble between the nations to bring an end to Spanish rule in Cuba.The United States government issued an ultimatum(最后通牒) to the Spanish government to end its occupation of Cuba. When Spanish officials refused, Congress and President William McKinley declared war on Spain. The war did not last long, because the United Sates forced an early surrender.More than 100 years after the explosion of Maine, the cause of the explosion is still unknown. Many questions remain. If an attack from outside the ship caused the magazine to explode, why didn’t witnesses see a splash in the water? Why were there no dead fish in the water if there was an external explosion?With the mystery still unsolved, the question of what really happened to the USS Maine may never be answered.(Note: Answer the questions or complete the statements in NO MORE THAN EIGHT WORDS.)81. On February 15, 1898，more than 260 Americans lost their lives because of __________ .82. According to the passage, the “magazine” was used to _________.83.
