But when you’re blind and deaf, having someone who can also be your eyes and ears is even better.Meet Ollie, a gentle beef cow who was born blind and mostly deaf. Because of his disability (残疾), he can often lose his way in the pasture (牧场) .It’s then that he calls for help. And when he does, it’s his best f riend Sunny who never fails to make her way to him.Ollie and Sunny’s story began almost ten years ago when Ollie was born. His own mother rejected (抛弃) the blind and deaf calf (牛犊). But as luck would have it, a kind Jersey cow named Ms. Clover took care of him.Wherever Ms. Clover went, Ollie followed. Soon, Ms. Clover had her own calf, Sunny, who quickly took on the job of being Ollie’s guide.But sadly, all good things must come to an end. Ms. Clover was called up to that great pasture in the sky, and to make matters worse, Ollie and Sunny’s farm was sold.A message was sent out to find the two cows a new home together and an answer finally came from a quiet corner of Rensselaer County, New York.“ I couldn’t say no,” says Tracy Muscatello, who owns and o perates HeartsHerd Animal Sanctuary in Buskirk. “He would have been somebody’s hamburger.” Muscatello says she has never seen anything like the relationship between Ollie and Sunny.When Ollie calls, without fail Sunny finds her way over to Ollie’s side. It’s much the same way at the close of the day when Sunny leads Ollie into the barn (牛舍) for the night.So far, things haven’t changed much for the two friends. Whenever Ollie finds himself lost in the pasture, he calls out to his best friend, and there she is.24. What do we know about Ollie?A. He was rejected by his owner.B. He lost his mother at birth.C. He was Ms. Clover’s calf.D. He was born disabled.25. What happened to Ms. Clover?A. She died.B. She was sold.C. She got lost in the pasture.D. She moved to a new pasture.26. How does Muscatello feel about the two cows?A. She feels sorry because she failed to help.B. She feels sad because they will be eaten.C. She is moved by their relationship.D. She is worried about their lives.27. What would be the best title for the text?A. The life of a blind cowB. The pleasure of givingC. A seeing-eye friendD. A lifelong job[C]In September and October, the fruits of the horse chestnut tree (马栗树), known as conkers, begin to fall from the trees. Conkers are unfit for humans to eat, but are eaten by animals. In the past they were ground up (磨碎) and given to horses, to treat cough and to give them a shiny coat. It has also been said that placing conkers in the corners of rooms, can keep spiders (蜘蛛) out — though this is thought to be an old wives’tale with no scientific evidence.Conkers used to be collected for the game of conkers — it was a favourite playground game in Britain for many years — but this does not happen so much nowadays, because of worries about safety.It wasn’t until the 19th century that the horse chestnut fruits — the conkers — were recorded as being used for the game of conkers, on the Isle of Wight in 1848. After the 1850’s, the use of horse chestnuts to play the game was referred to in many parts of the country. From then on, the game’s popularity grew and spread throughout Britain.The game has 2 players, each with a carefully chosen conker, with a hole through it, on a string (线). It is important to have the hardest conker! A basic idea of the game is to hit the other one’s conker and try to break it.Even though the game is said to be dying out, the World Conker Championships are growing in popularity! They have been held since 1965, first in Ashton, Northamptonshire. Having had to cancel a fishing trip because of bad weather, and there being a lot of horse chestnut trees nearby, a group in the local pub decided to have a game of conkers instead. This had continued as a yearly event, where the organisers donated each year to blind charities (慈善团体). It has since become an international event.28. What can we learn about conkers?A. They had a medical use.B. They can drive spiders away.C. They can be eaten by humans.D. They are shaped like horseshoes.29. What kind of conker is perfect for the game?A. A dark one.B. A hard one.C. A small one.D.A shiny one.30. Why did people in the pub hold the first World Conker Championships?A. To have fun.B. To help the blind.C.To save the game.D.To protect the trees.31. What’s the purpose of the text?A. To encourage readers to take part in games.B.To teach readers how to play conkers.C. To show the importance of conkers.D.To introduce the game of conkers.[D]After the summer break, Delhi’s children returned to school and found a new class: happiness.It wasn’t a welcome-back joke. In a country where top universities require average test scores above 9%, the Delhi government’s decision marks a shift of emphasis (强调) from exams to student well-being.Manish Sisodia is Delhi’s education minister. Under his “happiness classes” program, 100,000 Delhi students spend the first half-hour of each school day without opening a textbook, learning instead through inspirational (启发性的) stories and activities.Children appeared interested. “We should work happily,” said Aayush Jha, an 11-year-old fresh out of his first happiness clas s. “When you work sadly, your work will not be good.”Math teacher Sonu Gupta told his class about what scientist Stephen Hawking had achieved. Upstairs, Santosh Bhatnagar, another teacher, told the class to close their eyes and imagine doing something that made them happy.“ I learned that you should learn to believe yourself and that those who try never fail,” said Dipanshu Kumar, a 12-year-old in Gupta’s class. Some teachers, though, remain doubtful. They say the public schools are too crowded for classes based so heavily on classroom interaction (互动).“If we have 80 students in our class, how can we follow every kid in just 35 minutes?” said English teacher Bharti Dabas. Others doubt that the happiness classes can change the long-lasting emphasis on exams. Geeta Gandhi Kingdon, chair of education, economics and international development at University College London, said that there haven’t been any studies to prove their workability.Sisodia, however, believes that changes need to be made. He asked, “ If a person is going through our education system (体系) for 18 years of his life and is becoming an engineer, but is still throwing litter on the ground, then can we really say that the education system is working?” The purpose of the experiment to teach happiness, Manish Sisodia says, is for school s to develop “good human beings.”32. What does the underlined word “shift” in Paragraph 2 mean?A. Plan.B. Start.C. Change.D. Possibility.33. What did Dipanshu Kumar learn from happiness classes?A. Happy people never fail.B. One should have trust in themselves.C. Happiness helps produce good work.D. One should never be afraid of failures.34. Why did some teachers question the practicability of happiness classes in public schools?A. Studen ts may get away from a teacher’s control.B. There are too many students in public schools.C. Students are not good at classroom interaction.D. There are too many classes on a student’s timetable.35. What did Geeta Gandhi Kingdon think of happiness classes?A. They should last longer than half an hour.B. He doubted their usefulness to students’ studies.C. He doubted their influence on the education system.D. They gave teachers freedom to choose their own teaching methods.七选五Culture means any human behavior that is learned in human society. All of the meaningful parts of a culture are passed on to different generations through tradition or social learning. 36 Culture exists in agricultural as well as industrialized societies.Culture is necessary for the survival and existence of human beings as human beings. Practically everything humans know, think, value, feel, and do is learned through taking part in a sociocultural system.37 Here is one of the cases of children growing up apart from human society. In the province of Midnapore in India, the director of a children’s home was told by local villagers that there were “ghosts” in the forest. Upon looking into the case, the director found that two children, one about eight years old and the other about six years old, appeared to have been living with a group of wolves in the forest. 38 In his diary, the director describes his first view of Kamala (as the older child was named) and Amala (the name given to the younger child):Kamala was a terrible-looking being, the head, a big ball of something covering the shoulders. 39 Their eyes were bright and sharp, unlike human eyes. They were very fond of raw meat and raw milk. Gradually, as they got stronger, they began going on all fours, and afterwards began to run on all fours, just like squirrels.Children learn human language in the same way they learn other kinds of human behavior--by taking part in a cultural community. 40 .A.From this viewpoint, all human groups have a culture.B.These children were the ghosts described by the local people.C.This statement is well supported by some well-written cases.D.Human beings can only develop human abilities by the local people.E.Culture refers only to the high art and classical music of a particular society.F.Close at its heels there came another terrible creature exactly like the first, but smaller in size.G.They learn a certain human languages as well as certain kinds of human behavior through their membership in a certain cultural community.第一节（共20 小题；每小题1 分，满分30 分）In the spring of 2016, I had my eye exam.
