阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

A
The first visit to a foreign country that I can remember was when I was about seven years old. We live about 5 miles away from the Canadian border(边界). My family and I went to Parc Safari, Quebec, a wonderful place that has animals and rides. We drove down a nice long road. My sister and I sat in the back of the car, and it was a hatchback(有仓门式后背的汽车) so we opened it up. I remember feeding the animals snacks we had bought for ourselves.
The time we went we were told there would not be monkeys because they had escaped and had not been found. I remember thinking to myself, how cool it would be to see a monkey in our backyard. Even though the monkeys were not there it was still so much fun. When we reached the area that had camels, giraffes and other animals, I remember one of the camels reached into the car to get our snacks. However, we were a little gross out because the camels seemed to froth(吐白沫) at the mouth and we had camel slobber(口水) all over the car and us.
It was one of the best family vacations that I can remember. It was not too far from home, it was in a different country and it was with my family. I cannot remember if we went on the rides or not but seeing many animals was a great time. Now I am grown up and have a son, and I am planning to go there again. He is 7 years old and I think he is at a great age to enjoy a trip like this. I am sure it has changed a lot over the years but it will still be a great family trip.
56. Where did the author live when he was 7 years old?
A. In Canada
B. Near the Canadian border
C. In the central US
D. In Parc Safari

B. To take his 7-year-old son to a zoo.
C. To have a family trip in his own country.
D. To have a holiday abroad with his parents.

Alex Wood began fundraising when he was four years old. He sold lemonade and cookies to raise money for a school in Haiti. Later, Alex sent 15 bags of food he collected from his neighbors to a food store near his home which asked for donations(捐赠).
Alex wanted to help more people. He decided to donate to Heifer International, an organization that gives farm animals and farm training to poor people around the world. His goal: $5,000 for a “gift ark”. That amount would mean that 15 pairs of animals would be given to people in need. Those families would agree to give one of their animals’ young to other needy families.
Alex decided that baking was the best way to raise money. He started a business, named it Clean Hands Bakery, and now sells his baked goods year round. In his family’s kitchen, he created all kinds of cookies and cakes. He says his top sellers are lemon pound cakes and chocolate cupcakes. Alex likes the baking as much as the fundraising. “I like it that you can take so many ingredients(原料) that don’t taste good on their own and come up with something amazing,” he says.
In September 2011, Alex reached his goal of $5,000 and bought a gift a rk. “I feel absolutely overjoyed that I got to my goal,” he says. “I can’t help everybody by myself, but I can do my part, which I hope will inspire other people to do their part, too.” One of the people Alex has already inspired is his younger brother. “H e had people donate to me, instead of giving him a birthday present.” Alex explains. “In the end he donated $200 toward my goal.”
So now that he’s met his goal of a gift ark, will Alex keep baking and fundraising? He says yes. He wants to end world hunger, one cupcake at a time
60. What did Alex Wood donate to Heifer International?
A. $5.000 in cash

D. sells food cooked by Alex himself

A. Doubtful
B. Curious
C. Supportive
D. Uncaring
63. What would be the best title for the passage?
A. A charity helping the poor.
B. Feeding the world by baking.
C. The best way to raise money.
D. Cooking with different ingredients.

Is it wrong to use someone else’s wireless (Wi-Fi) connection? Just recently, a man was arrested for doing just that. At that time, he was sitting in the street with a laptop(便携式电脑) and using an unsecured(无安全爱护措施) wireless connection to surf the Net. What do you think about this topic? Listen to the following different views on it.
For a start, if someone is using your Internet service or downloading, this will affect your speed of access or download limit. Also, it’s bad for Internet service providers. They will suffer in the long run because fewer people will pay for an Internet service if they know they can get it for free. And finally, just imagine this: what if the person who is stealing your Internet connection is involved in an illegal activity? I think the police are totally right to arrest these criminals.
— by Sandra Wilkins
Basically, if the person who paid for the service still has everything they paid for, what’s the problem? It’s just like using the light from streetlamps to read your book, or watching someone else’s firework display. It’s not stealing.
Also, if you leave your wireless connection unsecured, then it is your own fault(过错) if someone else uses it. Just as you wouldn’t leave your front door unlocked, or your car door open, neither should you leave your wireless connection open. By leaving your wireless connection open, you are inviting people to use it. Securing your wireless connection is as easy as clicking a few settings on your router(路由器). And finally, haven’t the police got more important crimes to solve? They’re always saying how they haven’t got the manpower to solve real issues. But this is just ridiculous(荒谬的).
— by James Hoarley
68. Why was the man mentioned in the first paragraph arrested?
A. Fo r stealing someone’s laptop.
B. For surfing the Net in the street.
C. For destroying others’ wireless connection.
D. For using an Internet service without permission.
69. What does Sandra Wilkins think of people using others’ Internet service?
A. He thinks it is unacceptable.
B. He thinks it is necessary sometimes.
C. He thinks it requires good computer skills.
D. He thinks it is good for Internet service providers.
70. In James Hoarley’s opinion, ______.
A. Internet service should be improved.
B. it is h ard to secure one’s wireless connection.
C. using others’ Internet service is not stealing at all.
D. people should leave their wireless connection open.
71. What would be the best title for the passage?
A. Wireless connection
B. Wireless worries
C. Internet service
D. Internet users

Scientists in Colombia have trained a team of rats to help remove land mines from the countryside. Land mines are small bombs hidden in the ground and designed to explode(爆炸) when someone steps on them.
When trained, the rats can smell special metals in the mines and then signal(发信号) to their human team. Then why use rats for such an important job?
In the past, dogs have been used to find bombs. Rats have a good sense of smell and can respond to orders, just like dogs do. But rats are much lighter than dogs. They stand less of a chance of setting off the mines, which explode under a certain amount of weight. What’s more, the best rats are cheaper to keep than dogs. It costs about the same amount of money to take care of one dog as it does 70 rats.
The rats have already been used in Tanzania, an African country with many land mines. Luisa Fernanda Méndez and her team in Colombia are training the even lighter Wistar rats. These are the white rats with red eyes that scientists often use in laboratory experiments. “They even train their babies to perform their jobs, which saves us a lot of time, ” Méndez said.
Colombia has the second-highest rate(比率) of deaths from land mine accidents in the world. Last year, land mines killed 695 people —56 of whom were children. A criminal group called the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia, or FARC, as well as other organizations, have placed the mines. FARC are strongly against Colombia’s go vernment. The group has placed mines all around its own bases and in many places in the countryside.
In the past, the Colombian government hired peasants and poor farmers to find mines. Many of them died trying to find the well-hidden bombs.
Colombian police official Erick Guzmán hopes the team of rats can come to the rescue(援救). “These rats will be a great help,” he said.
72. How do rats help to find land mines?
A. By their special sight.
B. By their light weight.
C. By their sense of smell.
D. By their excellent hearing.
73. The advantage of rats over dogs in finding bombs is that _____.
A. they are cleverer.
B. they run faster
C. they have a better sense of smell
D. they don’t make min es explode as easily
74. The underlined word “They” may refer to ______.
A. scientists
B. Wistar rats
C. dogs
D. Méndez and her team
75. What is the passage mainly about?
A. Specially-trained rats help clear land mines.
B. People in Tanzania are suffering from land mines.
C. Dogs are no longer used to find land mines.
D. Land mines have become a great danger to Colombians.

书面表达：
Dear classmates,
I know that most of us are depressed because we haven’t got used to the high school life. I want to share my ideas about it.
Due to heavier burden of study, greater exam pressure and higher expectation from parents, many students feel troubled. To escape from these, some students become addicted to playing computer games. What is worse, some even begin to smoke or drink. They don’t have a strong desire to study and their study has no good result.
In my opinion, when we get into difficulties, we should learn how to deal with them properly. Therefore, it is necessary for us to communicate more with our classmates. Besides, we should ask our teachers and parents for advice more often. At the same time, we can relax ourselves and increase our confidence by listening to music and taking exercise.
I hope all of you can benefit from my advice.
Thank you for listening!。
