第一节（共15小题；每小题2分,满分30分）
A
With the Chinese language growing in popularity，the UK government plans to invest(投资）10 million pounds to help more kids learn Mandarin(普通话). Do you think it is necessary for the UK pupils to
learn Mandarin？Some people share their opinions online。

Ted(UK)：The learning of any language can be valuable and rewarding, but it is not suitable for everyone。

Chinese is a difficult language to learn and the UK has a poor reputation for teaching foreign languages。

Why should they learn Chinese when most people in the world speak English?
Mark(US）: I studied French for 2 years in high school and German for 4 years in college. I studied Mandarin informally for about 4 months before moving to China。

Now I speak Mandarin every day as my wife doesn’t speak English。

But it is far from being fluent. Learning additional languages is a great thing, which offers a different perspective on the world around us。

Nowadays, it’s almost necessary to be able to speak more than just your native tongue。

George （UK)：No，unless they're taught from a very early stage of childhood。

Mandarin is so difficult。

If China really is going to dominate the world, it’ll have to do so by speaking the world’s dominant language——-English。

Sam （UK)：I don’t think Chinese will become as widely spoken throughout the world as English。

It is too difficult to learn as a second
language。

To learn Chinese you completely have to devote yourself to learning how to write and read it. If you have to learn it besides other subjects you can't be good at it. But Chinese will become more popular, and that is a good thing.
21．What is probably Mark’s main motivation（动机）for learning Chinese?
A。

Further education。

B. Effective communication
C。

His frequent travel D. The official policy 22．What does Sam think of learning Chinese?
A. It’s necessary。

B.It’s of little use.
C。

It takes too much time. D。

It’s not popular.
23．What seems to be the major problem when foreigners try to learn Chinese?
A。

Its difficulty as a language B. Misunderstanding about China
C。

The great popularity of English D。

A lack of learning resources.
B

It’s been just over a year since 9—year—old Zion Harvey received a double—hand transplant（移植）, and now, what he really wants to do is playing football。

“I feel happy about my new hands, and I don’t feel different. I like that now I can throw a football further than when I didn’t have hands，" he said.
The nation’s youngest hand-transplant patient has been working hard to learn how to use his new hands。

He lost his hands and his feet 7 years ago after suffering from a serious infection。

In August，the boy
showed off his new abilities by throwing out the first ball at a baseball game。

Dr。

Scott Levin, team leader of Zion’s operation，said Zion was faced with the operation much braver than many adults。

“I’ve never seen Zion cry，” Levin said. “He’s just a n amazing boy。

He has such courage and determination and gives us all inspiration。

”
Zion said his courage came from the two most amazing people: his mom and his grandma。

His mother, Pattie Ray, said，“It’s been a long journey but now I feel like I am living in my dream。

It’s his dream，and it's mine，too. I’m just living through him，and I’m just here to support him in any way and help him do whatever he wants to do。

”
However，Zion told reporters his mom wouldn’t let him try out for football。

His mom said it’s too dangerous。

She also pointed out that he might be playing against little kids，not professionals，and she told him they would discuss it later. Zion tried to counter her argument. “My next goal：convince Mom to let me play football,” he said。

27。

What is Zion’s attitude towards his transplanted hands?
A。

He likes them a lot B. He tries to ignore them
C。

He accepts them unwillingly D. He has mixed feelings about them.
28。

What did Dr。

Scott Levin think of Zion？
A。

He was unusually quiet. B。

He was well worth praising.
C. He was cleverer than expected. D。

He was a talented football player。

29. Which of the following words can best describe Pattie Ray?
A. Sensitive and strict。

B。

Devoted and supportive
C。

Optimistic and active D. Open-minded and outgoing.
30。

What does the underlined word “counter” in the last paragraph mean?
A。

Accept B。

Prove C。

Be against D. Comment
D
What would you like to be when you grow up？A teacher？A
doctor? An astronaut？What do you need to do to achieve your dream job？Perhaps you think that studying well and then going on to work hard will get you successful career you want. We are constantly taught that our hard work will eventually pay off.
But a government survey has shown that hard work is not the only thing that will help you to move up the ladder. Two thirds of people believe that who you know matters more than what you know when it comes to social activity。

So are the connections that you have more important than your education？
76% of the people in the survey believed that family background is important in influencing your chances of success。

They believe that if you are privileged from birth，you are more likely to have a successful career，especially if your family is wealthy。

Even if you don’t have a privileged background, the people you know can still make a difference to your career. Networking is a skill which is encouraged by many career advisers。

Some companies run networking workshops to try and encourage staff to meet other people, to communicate and build relationships. It’s a valuable skill。

But the survey also showed something quite interesting。

Although
most people believed that networks are more important than education, many people put their own career success down to talent，rather than background。

41％of the people said that their parents' income had influenced their life, but at the same time，another 41% believed that they had achieved their own success。

So which is more important，what you know or who you know? It seems that by working hard and making lots of connections，the answer may be that both are very important。

31。

Which of the following is closet in meaning to the underlined part？A。

Practice makes perfect B。

Nothing is impossible
C. Hope for the best
D. No pains, no gains
32。

According to the government survey，the most important factor to help people move up the ladder is _________。

A。

hard work B。

education C. social relationship D。

social activity
33. Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?
A。

76％of the people think social relationship is most important.
B。

41％of the people believe parents’ income is most important.
C. 76% of the people think family background ranks first。

D。

41％of the people believe they gained their own success.
34。

From the passage we can infer that the writer writes the article to _____。

A。

stress the importance of education
B。

challenge the traditional belief
C. make lots of social connections
D。

encourage people to work hard。

35. Which of the following is the best title for the passage?
