Though it was not fine and clouds appeared in the sky that morning, the little girl made her daily trip to school as usual. When school was over, winds became stronger and it began to rain.The mother of the little girl felt worried that her daughter would be afraid and that lightning might frighten her child. Following the bright light of lightning, the mother quickl y got into her car and drove to her child’s school.As the mother drove along the road, she saw her little girl walking alone in the rain. To her great surprise, she found that when a lightning came, her daughter stopped, looked up and smiled. Another lightning came and then another followed. With each lightning, the little girl stopped, looked up and smiled at it.Inside the car, the mother asked her daughter, “What were you doing? Why did you look up and smile when the lightning came?” The little girl answered with a smile, “Mum, you know, God (上帝) was looking at me. Each time I felt a little afraid walking in the rain, God would take a picture of me. I knew he was playing a game with me.”1.The little girl went to school every day.A.by car B.by busC.on foot D.by bike2.At first, the mother felt worried because .A.she couldn’t look after her daughterB.her daughter hadn’t taken her umbrellaC.she had something more important to doD.her daughter might be afraid of lightning3.According to the article, we can know that the little girl was .A.proud B.shyC.brave D.nervous4.The best title for this article is .A.A Girl in the Rain B.A Mother in the CarC.A Rainy Day D.A Girl and an UmbrellaB14、Have you ever rubbed your hands together when they get cold? Why do we do that? We do that forfriction. Friction happens when two things that aren’t very smooth (光滑的) rub together to make heat energy. The faster you rub two things together, the more frictio n you can make. Let’s discover friction!________★Soap ★Water ★Your hands_____★Make sure your hands are dry.★Rub your hands together until you feel the heat of your hands.★Now, use soap and water to get your hands very slippery (滑的).★Try to make friction happen while your hands are slippery.★Please write down what has happened._____Friction is an energy that happens when two things rub together. When friction happens, it makes heat! When your hands are slippery, they won’t make very much friction and your hands won’t get so hot.______★Friction happens when you stop your fast running bike.★Ancient people made fires by rubbing two pieces of wood together. Friction happened though they didn’t knowit.________Friction is everywhere. Have you ever noticed situations where friction is happening? If not, ask your parents to take you out in a car. If it is not hot, touch the tires (轮胎) of the car before and after a short drive to see how much warmer they get from friction.1.Yo u’d better make your hands ______ to get heat when you rub them.A.slippery B.dry C.wet2.The word “friction” in the first paragraph means “______”.A.摩擦B.震动C.膨胀3.We can know from the passage that it’s a ______ experiment.A.physics B.chemistry C.biology4.The topic of the last column (栏目) is ______A.THINK IT OVER! B.WHAT HAPPENED? C.WORK WITH PARENTS.5.The main idea of the passage is ______.A.how to discover friction B.how to rub your hands C.how to make fires by rubbingC15、Every 14 days, another language dies. There are many reasons for this. Some people think more common languages have more economic(经济的)power. Because of this, young people choose to learn a common language as they think it is more useful. Another reason is that some languages aren't written down. Guujaaw is a leader of the Haida Nation, whose people have lived on the Queen Charlotte Islands, Canada, for more than 10, 000 years. Their language is endangered. Traditionally, it wasn’t written down, and, a s a result, some people are worried that it will die one day. Guujaaw replies to this, "We talk to each other, listen, visit, and believe in the spoken word. Expressing yourself without writing is natural." However, if Guujaaw's language and others like it are going to stay alive, writing may have to become part of their lives.When a language dies, a lot of knowledge dies with it. To begin with, language is a huge part of the culture of the people who speak it. Language allows speakers to say certain things: words that describe a cultural idea may not translate exactly into another language. Furthermore, many endangered languages have rich spoken cultures, Stories, songs and histories are passed on from older people to younger generations(一代), Elizabeth Lindsey, an expert in languages, emphasizes(强调) this. “When an elder dies, a library is burned,” she says.Also, language death affects our knowledge about nature. Local people often have a deep understanding of plants, animals, and the relationship between t hem. David Harrison, a researcher on endangered languages, reflects, “80% of plant and animal species(物种)have been undiscovered by science. But that doesn’t mean they're unknown to humans.”Many languages are endangered. However, it s not too late. Children often grow up speaking two languages. "No one ..becomes richer by giving up… one language to learn another,” Harrison said. If children feel both languages are important, they will use both. So, it is necessary that children realize how useful their local language is.1.How many reasons are mentioned for endangered languages in Paragraph 1?A.2 B.3. C.4 D.5.2.In Paragraph 2, the writer mainly tells us_____.A.how cultures are passed on B.how cultures are discoveredC.why languages are written down D.why languages are important to cultures3.The underlined word "affects" in the passage means “_______”.A.waits for B.depends onC.is different from D.has an influence on4.Which of the following is the writer's opinion?A.People need to use common languages more often.B.The spoken word is more important than the written word.C.Children are the hope to stop the local language from dying.D.Many animals and plants are in danger because of dying languages.D16、The father’s role in the fami ly is important. One researcher says babies who are cared for by their fathers have greater cognitive (认知的) development at one year of age than babies not cared for by their fathers. Another researcher reports that by spending time with their pre-school ch ildren, fathers can help to develop children’s language ability. Researchers also point out that for school-age children, fathers are one bridge with the outside world.Fathers who value (重视) education have children who do better in school than those chil dren whose fathers don’t value education. What’s more, fathers who spend quality time with their children may give their children happymemories which may last a lifetime.While each father is auniqueperson who educates children in his own style, good fathers have something in common. Good fathers attend their children’s school activities. They also involve the children in their lives and the adult world by taking them to see the workplace, or by taking them when the car needs to be repaired, etc.Good fathers expect a great deal from their children, but also accept and support the unique individuals (个体) that their children are becoming.Good fathers prefer explanations and reasoning to force.Good fathers know their time with children is really an investment (投资) in them.Being an involved father is good for children and good for fathers. Both children and fathers have the chance for growth and development. Today’s lifestyles are changing. More and more fathers are keeping a balance between their personal life, work, and family time.1.According to the passage, we can find that .A.fathers have an important influence on their children from babyhood through adulthoodB.fathers’ involvement (介入) is the most important in children’s developmentC.all fathers have the same way of educating their childrenD.fathers are more important than mothers in the family2.Aunique person in the third paragraph means “a person who”.A.has the same ideas as othersB.is the only one of his typeC.does eve rything without considering others’ ideasD.tries to do everything well3.Which of the following statements is CORRECT according to the passage?A.Good fathers attend their children’s school activities but never take them to their workplace.B.Good fathers expect a great deal from their children and force them to work hard.C.Good fathers try to make it clear to their children that staying with their fathers is an investment.D.Good fathers improve themselves when they spend time with their children.4.The passage is mainly about __________ .A.how to be a qualified fatherB.the growth and development of both fathers and childrenC.the father’s role in the growth and development of childrenD.the change of the father’s role in modern societyE17、COOKING WITH ESSENCE ON MAIN1.What can people learn from Essence on Main?A.Art B.MusicC.English D.Cooking2.The most lessons are in ________.A.March B.April C.May D.June3.We can learn to make summer desserts on _______.A.April 22 B.May 18C.May 25 D.June 144.What day is May 7?A.Monday B.WednesdayC.Thursday D.Friday.5.Mrs Black comes back from work at 5 every day, the time of Spring Class is suitable for her, isn’t it ?A.Y es, it isn’t. B.No, it isn’t.C.Y es, it is . D.No, it is.F18、Imagine the situation. You are driving along a desert or on a mountain. You have no idea where you are. You passed the last house two hours ago. Then your car breaks down. It is night and it is cold. You have no mobile phone. What do you do? Well, next time take a GPS with you. This invention may be able to help you. It is a device (装置) which uses satellites to find the user’s position. It can find your position in 20 meters. A GPS can’t start your car, but at least you will know where you are.GPS, which means Global Positioning System, is a small radio receiver. It looks like a mobile phone. You can hold it inyour hand, or put it in your pocket. It is sometimes put into a watch or a telephone. We also find GPS devices in cars, planes, or boats. Some of these devices have electronic maps, so you know where you are. For example, in a city they can tell you the name of the street.There are three parts to the Global Positioning System. The first part is the receiver. Y ou can hold it in your hand, or have it fixed into your car, plane, etc. The second part is a group of satellites orbiting(围绕) the earth. The receiver contacts at least four of the satellites and calculates its position. The third part of the system is a network of ground stations. They are all over the world. They control the satellites and make sure they are working well.Some people think that in the future the GPS will be as common as the mobile. They are becoming cheaper and more and more accurate(精准). There are also many new uses for the GPS. Perhaps they will become like watches. Everyone will have one and you will never be lost again.1.With the help of GPS, people ______.A.can’t be lost in a new cityB.can’t find their way in different countriesC.can start the carD.can learn about the culture of an unknown place2.GPS means ___________in ChineseA.球状卫星B.卫星地点C.全球卫星定位系统D.接收器3.______is not the part to the Global Positioning System.A.ground stations B.satellitesC.receivers D.a mobile4.Maybe in the future the GPS will be _________.A.cheaper than mobile phones B.as common as watches.C.having few new uses D.more accurate than now.5.. From the passage we know that ______.A.people can drive along a desert easily.B.All GPS devices have electronic mapsC.Ground stations control the satellites and make sure they are working well.D.Everyone will use the GPS for free.Ⅴ.书面表达19、假如你是李华,就个人爱好带来的困惑给英国朋友Stephen发电子邮件进行交流并请求帮助。

It is alpine(高山) in the purest sense—with skyscraping peaks, glaciers and permanent snow fields, all set under a star-studded sky.Key HighlightsAlthough it includes 23 peaks over 3,000 metres high, this park is very accessible. State Highway 80 leads to Mt Cook Village which is situated beside scenic Lake Pukaki and provides a comfortable base for alpine activities. Far from city lights, the stargazing here is magnificent—Aoraki Mount Cook National Park forms the majority of New Zealand's only International Dark Sky Reserve.Mountaineers regard the area to be the best climbing region, while less skilled adventurers find plenty of satisfaction with the mountain walks that lead to alpine tarns, herb fields and spectacular glacier views. Encounters(遇到) with cheeky kea (mountain parrots) are part of the fun.Key ActivitiesMountain walksThere are 10 short walks beginning near the village. All tracks are formed and well marked. The Red Tarns Track, Kea Point and the Hooker Valley Track each take around two hours return. For more experienced alpine hikers, there are three mountain pass routes—over the Mueller, Copland and Ball passes.Glacier viewing and skiingHelicopters and ski-planes provide access to the park's fabulous glaciers. The Tasman Glacier is an excellent choice for intermediate skiers, while the Murchison, Darwin and Bonney glaciers promise excitement for advanced skiers. From October until May, you can explore the Tasman Glacier's terminal lake by boat.MountaineeringClimbing Mount Cook remains the ultimate challenge, but there are many other peaks to tempt experienced climbers. Tasman, Malte Brun, Elie de Beaumont, Sefton and La Perouse are local favourites.Key Tips·Climbers don't require permits, but are requested to complete a trip intentions form.·Local guides are available for climbing, walking and glacier skiing.·Winter climbing is an extreme sport—only recommended for well-prepared, experienced mountaineers.·The weather can change very suddenly—be prepared for heavy rainfall, snow and/or high winds.·The park has an airport serving domestic commercial flights and scenic flight operators.()56. Which is one of the characteristics of Mount Cook National Park?A. It is so-called alpine and hard to reach.B. It provides star-shining night skies for visitors.C. It attracts less skilled visitors to all alpine activities.D. It appeals to adventurers mainly for finding cheeky kea.()57. If you are a visitor to the park, you should ________.A. properly evaluate your own experience and skillB. get your permit prepared before you start to climbC. hire local guides to help you to train for climbingD. choose Darwin glacier to ski on as an intermediate skierBA report released this month found that grouping children by ability is on the rise again—teaching students in groups of similar ability has improved achievement for fast and slow learners alike—and who wouldn't want bright kids to be able to move ahead, or strugglers to get the help they need?But for most kids, labels(标签) applied early in life tend to stick, even if they are wrong.Sorting school children by ability has long been controversial. In some countries, especially in Asia, school-wide tracking(分流) remains normal. Children are tested and placed in different schools that direct them toward professional or vocational careers. Movement between the tracks is rare.School-wide tracking decreased in U.S. schools in the 1960s and 1970s. It never died out, though. Sorting students into separate tracks for math at about junior high school age continues to be common, and other forms of tracking persist as well.Unlike tracking, which means sorting students into separate classrooms, ability grouping happens within classrooms. When done according to the latest research, it has proven to promote achievement.Ability grouping is changeable and temporary. Within classrooms, students might be divided into different learning groups dealing with materials of different levels. Any students who master concepts can move upward between groups, and the student groups might look different from subject to subject and unit to unit. For instance, a student who stands out in language arts might be at an average or slower level in math. A student who flies through multiplication tables might need extra help with fractions. Students who lag in reading can be pulled out of the classroom in small groups for practice with a tutor until their reading improves.Research shows ability grouping within classes has more positive benefits than tracking. However, that must be weighed against the challenges involved. In many regular classrooms, the differences between student ability levels are very big. That presents challenges for teachers and low-performing students to constantly compare themselves with students who seem to flythrough school with ease.The rigid ability groups and tracking of the past are still with us in many schools. Likely, labels are applied with more caution than in the bad old days when some teachers gave reading groups not-so-secret code names like “Bluebirds” “Robins” “Crows” and “Buzzards”. But kids still know.()58. Why is grouping children by ability becoming popular again?A. Because most teachers do not like slower learners.B. Because grouping children should be done early in life.C. Because it is academically beneficial to different learners.D. Because fast learners can move ahead without teachers' help.()59. By saying “Movement between the tracks is rare.”in Paragraph 3, the writer really means ________.A. tracking children is normal in AsiaB. school-wide tracking has decreased in USC. professional and vocational careers are unrelatedD. sorted students can hardly change schools()60. The examples in Paragraph 6 are used mainly to illustrate ________.A. a good language learner promises to be good at mathsB. a student might join different groups for different coursesC. ability grouping benefits gifted students more than slow onesD. ability grouping presents no challenge for those slow students()61. What might be the challenge in regular classrooms for teachers?A. Students' different levels.B. Students' low performance.C. Constant self-comparison.D. Application of not-so-secret code.CMicrosoft just finished a three-month experiment operating an underwater data center. A server rack(服务器支架) with the power of about 300 PCs was placed into a water-tight(防水) steel container and lowered into the ocean off the coast of central California.The unusual experiment was launched because current data centers are unpleasantly inefficient. They're built where energy and land are cheap (not close to where people actually live).And they waste so much energy cooling their massive computers. The ocean can solve those problems. The cold ocean floor sufficiently cools the computing components inside the pod. And since most people live near the ocean, placing data centers under water could potentially increase the speed at which customers could access the information stored in Microsoft's cloud.The experiment was so successful that Microsoft operated the underwater data center for 75 days longer than it had planned to. The next step is to get a larger pod, with about four times the computing power, under the ocean for testing. Unlike the first experiment, the next pod will also be equipped with turbines, which will transform the ocean's currents into electricity. It's not clear when, if ever, underwater data centers will become a possible product. “Our first experiment was like dipping our pinkie toe in the water, and now we're going for the big toe,”said Lee, corporate vice president of Microsoft Research.Microsoft is still analyzing the environmental impacts of the study. Data centers are both hot and loud, which could have damaging effects on ocean life. Microsoft found that the noise its underwater data center produced was drowned out by nearby shrimp and crabs. The data centers are also built from recyclable materials, and Microsoft believes that the total carbon footprint of underwater data centers will be “dramatically lower”than current land-based centers.Given the growth in the cloud, industry analysts believe that most of the world's data centers have yet to be built. But building a data center takes at least two years—an eternity in the fast-developing tech industry. As a result, Microsoft builds its data centers with the future in mind, installing far more computing power and space than it currently needs.Lee believes that going under water can shift the building of data centers from construction projects to manufacturing jobs. “What if we could mass-produce these pods on an assembly line?”he thought. “We could deliver a data center, from conception to operation, in 90 days. That's dramatically different than what's happening today.”()62. What is the advantage of an underwater data center?A. It can be lowered to the ocean floor easily.B. It can cool computing components automatically.C. It can be built close to the place where people live.D. It can make information easily accessible to people.()63. We can infer that the underwater data centers ________.A. cause little harm to the ocean lifeB. are more environmentally friendlyC. change the course of ocean currentsD. are easy to build in large quantities()64. The underlined word “eternity” in Paragraph 5 means “________”.A. an extremely long timeB. an extended periodC. a seemingly short timeD. a fruitful period()65. The passage tries to inform readers that ________.A. an experiment was made in operating a data centerB. Microsoft will mass-produce pods on an assemble lineC. Microsoft succeeded in putting a data center underwaterD. underwater data centers are more efficient than land-based onesDMy father's family is not a musical family. They are a family of words. My brother has my father's dark hair, his love of a good argument. I take after my mother. From her I inherited a curious nature, a sense of adventure, bright red hair. I did not, contrary to her hopes, inherit a talent for the piano. That fact was established beyond doubt after unsuccessful attempts to draw music from me.The piano lessons began when I was four. My mother was convinced that I would be a child Mozart. She found the ideal teacher—Madame Oblenka, a strict Russian woman, whose pursed lips were enough to frighten a wild horse into submission. Madame Oblenka, who expected a little Mozart, was not very delighted to find a little girl banging her fists(拳头) on the keys.I tried to please her. “Feel the music,”she urged. I “felt” it and winced(退避) my ears—for what is more unpleasant than a series of wrong no tes played continuously? She “felt” my music, too, which is why she always left with an angrier expression than when she came.Once, when I was ten, I managed to record one of my own rehearsals(练习). In order to escape my practice sessions, I would close myself behind the door of the piano room, put on the tape recording, and read until the tape had finished. That method worked for a week, until mymother began to wonder why I always missed the same B-sharp. She knocked on the door, and, receiving no answer, came in to check on me and found that I had fallen asleep while the tape of my performance played on and on.I was twelve when my parents finally acknowledged that my hidden talent was not about to emerge(显现) any time soon. My mother, refusing to admit defeat, told me to pick another instrument. “Choose anything you want, Honey,”she said, assuming that freedom of choice would inspire devotion. I thought long and hard and chose the drums. My parents, sensitive to noise, would be less than overjoyed by a daily bombardment of playing. I imagined my father in his study, cotton wads in his ears.I worked my way through several other instruments before my mother hit on another idea. Maybe I wasn't meant to be an instrumentalist. Realizing that drama might be more suited to my talents, Mom took me to a drama teacher. However, he put me backstage, painting scenery. Once I recovered from my sense of injury, I realized the wisdom of his choice. I loved the active, practical backstage world, and I discovered that I had a knack for constructing and painting. I loved the challenge of taking our scanty(贫乏的) supplies and using them to make something beautiful. Imagining a scene and then seeing it emerge before me—this, to me, was close to magic.I'm a sculptor now, and every day I experience afresh the joy of being fully absorbed in the act of artistic creation. It's a wonderful, blissful(乐而忘忧) feeling. I realize that my parents, in their misguided attempts to interest me in music, were trying to give me this feeling. And now I feel grateful. Perhaps they went about it in the wrong way, but their hearts were in the right place.()66. Madame Oblenka always felt angry because ________.A. the author was too young to play the piano wellB. the author often pointed out the wrong notes of herC. the author kept banging on the keys unconsciouslyD. the author's performance was far from satisfactory()67. Which of the following best reveals the author's attitude towards piano practice?A. She tried to make the piano teacher pleased.B. She recorded her performance for improvement.C. She played the recording instead of practising.D. She repeated the same mistake in practising.()68. Why did the author choose the drums as a musical instrument?A. She was eager to free herself from piano lessons.B. She was reluctant to play an instrument.C. She was confident of handling them.D. She was fond of beating drums.()69. The author's mother can be best described as ________.A. devoted and stubbornB. encouraging and independentC. helpful and considerateD. hardworking and generous()70. We can learn from the passage ________.A. parents should encourage their children to create artB. the ordinary backstage work can help one succeedC. you can only get better at something if you practiceD. art should be treated as a joy rather than a burden第Ⅱ卷(非选择题共35分)第四部分:任务型阅读(共10小题;每小题1分,满分10分)请认真阅读下面短文,并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填入一个最恰当的单词.注意:每个空格只填1个单词.Social Networking and Its EffectSocial networking has become an unquestionable part of our everyday lives. Those who have a life on the Internet do not always realize that they are losing their connections with the real world. Nowadays, a reputation online is more important. Some are even finding a way to make a living online. Social media seems to have quite the impact, especially on teenagers.Years ago, before social networking existed, friends would go out and have a good time, and popularity in high school would be something of importance to a lot of people. Today, popularity means having a lot of followers on Twitter or Tumblr. Tumblr has its own way of creating “celebrities”. Users are considered “Tumblr famous” if they have a high number of followers. Websites make us think that greatness is achieved just because thousands of strangers are familiar with your face. Popularity is not about having a lot of friends anymore; it is just about being known for absolutely nothing.Social networking has its positives, considering it allows us to connect with friends andfamily in a matter of seconds. Although this is extremely useful, it is also destroying our ability to make real life conversations. People are attacked over the Internet, but do not say a word to each other in person. Social media is preventing us from standing up for ourselves the way we should be. Facebook limits our conversations that we have with people, which is why it is always better to strike up a conversation in person instead of through a computer screen. Social networking destroys the true meaning of human interaction.Teens are finding new ways to make a living out of advertisements that they post on their social networking pages. Social networks allow them to make money without even getting up off the couch. Being out in the real world and working creates ways to communicate and is a crucial part of life, but that will be destroyed if young teens think it is okay to just make money through social media. Social networking makes things easier, but that does not always mean that it makes things better.Social networking affects young lives and causes teens to grow up differently from how their older relatives have. They rely on their blogs and pages to communicate with people, keep up with the latest trends and enjoy their separate little world. Social media has ruined how life should be: fun, adventurous and exciting. Instead, it has turned most teenagers into anti-social couch potatoes. There needs to be a break from social networking so young people can once again live a real life in the real world.Title: Social Networking and Its Effect第五部分:书面表达(满分25分)请阅读下面文字及图表,并按照要求用英语写一篇150词左右的文章.【写作内容】1. 用约30个字单词概述上述文字及图表的主要内容.2. 结合上述信息,简要分析可能导致青少年图书阅读量下降的原因.3. 结合自身实际,就如何提高青少年的图书阅读量提几点建议(不少于两点). 【写作要求】1. 写作过程中不能直接引用原文语句.2. 作文中不能出现真实姓名和学校名称.3. 不必写标准.【评分标准】内容完整,语言规范,语篇连贯,词数适当.________(这是边文,请据需要手工删加)(十八)1~5 ABBAA 6~10 CCBCA11~15 BCAAC 16~20 BACAC单项填空21.D 解析:考查连词.When在这里意为“既然”,符合题意.句意:既然你可以用微信或者QQ22.A 解析:考查动词时态.根据句意可知,这里表示Alice陪父亲钓鱼的一路上,学到了生活的功课.即指当时走在路上时“正在发生的事情”,因此用过去进行时,即A项正确.23.D 解析:考查动词辨析.A项意为“补偿”;B项意为“积累”;C项意为“调查”;D 项意为“革新”.根据句意可知,D项正确,而题干中的“change traditionally minded”是对本题答案的直接提示,即教育是要改变那些有着传统思想、不想革新的人.24.C 解析:考查非谓语动词.根据题意可知,install的动作发生在found的动作之前,而且I与install为主谓关系,因此用现在分词的完成式,即C项正确.25.A 解析:考查动词的时态.根据句意可知,accomplish的动作是在将来的某个时间将要发生的,所以用将来完成时.句意:当你回来时,你将会惊讶于我们的成就.因此选A. 26.C 解析:考查不定代词.句意:Echo总是抱怨自己收银员的工作,但是说实话,在现在如此困难的情况下,有一份工作就不错了.something在这里相当于“a thing that one should feel happy about”的意思.27.B 解析:考查动词短语.A项意为“接通电话”;B项意为“渡过难关;恢复健康”;C 项“推迟;驶过”;D项“把……开到路边”.B项的pull through在这里指“渡过难关”,即情况很糟糕,但是我们都期望他将会渡过难关.28.A 解析:考查虚拟语气.这是一个错综条件句,主句指现在的情况,从句指过去的情况,要用“had+过去分词”的形式,而且当从句省略if时,要将had提前.因此选A.29.C 解析:考查定语从句.of which引导非限制性定语从句,修饰前面一句话的内容.of which代指the impact of...,即指人们对这件事的积极反应对年轻的一代有着深远的影响.30.C 解析:考查名词性从句.that引导表语从句,由于表语从句不缺少成分,而且句意完整,所以用that作连接词符合句意.31.C 解析:考查名词.economic performance为固定搭配,意为“经济表现;经济实绩”,符合句意,即股票市场通常反映一个国家的经济表现.只有C项正确.32.D 解析:考查形容词辨析.A项意为“敏感的”;B项意为“上级的”;C项“忠诚的;忠实的”;D项意为“重要的;至关重要的”.句意:人们守法的意识对于食品安全的保证至关重要.33.B 解析:考查情态动词.B项意为“很可能”,符合句意.句意:他上周五解决的一个难题的方法很可能会引发另一个难题.34.A 解析:考查介词短语.A项意为“与……成比例;与……相称”;B项“除……之外”;C项“与……形成对比”;D项“关于”.根据答语中的rewards和后面the efforts可知,A 项正确,即你得到的报酬和付出是成比例的.35.B 解析:考查情景会话.A项意为“如果……会怎么样?”;B项意为“怎么回事啊”;C项意为“为什么不?”;D项意为“那有怎么样?”.根据答语中的问句“Did you make the。

第I卷选择题一、阅读理解AThe Power of SoundThe music of world-famous guitarist Gabriel Ayala can make you cheer or cry depending on thechords弦. As the winner of numerous musical honors, he said,” I love the power of sound.He was also recently named Native American Music Awards Artist of the Year and he played at theinauguration任职典礼of President Barack Obama.“My concerts are a journey for both my audiences and myself,” he says. “Feelings and emotions areall over the board and I am the tool trying to convey those feelings, trying to paint a visual picture throughchord changes. Sound conveys power, whether it’s a well-performed craze or the wind blowing throughthe trees. Music isn’t just a pretty melody also it’s a visual performance that captures moments in life andputs them to music.”Ayala also shares his gift with kids As a teacher with a master’s degree he serves as an advocate提倡者for youth education by being a ole model. He practices the philosophy of honoring elders,respecting women and loving children. He delivers a message lo youth that they can become whateverthey dream of.The music man has recently launched a non-profit foundation to work more closely with youngsters“I’ve been blessed in both my career and life and feel I need to give back lo pay my respect and hanks forthe gift I have owned and I can do that through music,” he says.One of his experiences in giving back involved a nigh school class of some 200, which included aspecial needs group. I used my guitar as a tool to capture their interest and once I began playing, the wholebehaviors of the class changed in a positive way. This was especially so for one of the disabled studentswhose hands would not allow him lo even hold my costly guitar.When I put the valuable guitar in his lap and he started beating the heck out of it as hard as he could,there wasn’t a dry eye in the house. That’s the real reason I play music, not for fame or fortune butbecause music has he power to truly heal. The look on that boy’s face was priceless. 1In Ayala’s eyes, music is a ________.A. role modelB. visual performanceC. natural giftD. famous painting2Ayala plays music to ________.A. earn moneyB. entertain the disabledC. become famousD. encourage the youth3From the passage, we can learn that Ayala ________.A. plays various instruments skillfullyB. sends valuable guitars to disabled studentsC. devotes himself to delivering the power of musicD. calls on children to walk into schools to learn musicBThe story of the movie Inside Out mostly takes place inside the mind of 11-year-old Riley as shemoves from Minnesota to San Francisco. The main characters are Riley’s emotions---Joy, Sadness,Disgust Anger and Fear, which guide her decisions and often compete with one another for control of herbrain.Fear is tall, thin, looks like a frayed焦燥的nerve and is purple. Not only that, this eyes arepurple, too. Anger, which is red, looks like a brick and has red eyes. Disgust, who is green, has green eyes.Sadness, not surprisingly, is completely blue, and even looks like a teardrop. But Joy, who is mainlyyellow, has more than one color in her. She has blue eyes and blue hair. Why? Well, if blue representssadness, then the message is clear: there is no such thing as “pure joy”. Instead, even in our most joyoustimes, there is often sadness mixed in.After all, one of the most joyous moments we can experience is a wedding, but it may end with thebreaking of a glass. It reminds us that our world is still broken. In other words, even at our highestmoments, there is always a little sadness. 此卷只装订不密封班级姓名准考据号考场号座位号But the comfort is that the reverse is often true. Think about how you feel after crying. When youcry, your body is releasing some chemicals that often make you feel good. And that’s why you feel at easeafter a good cry.Indeed, Inside Out reminds us that even the emotions that appear “negative” have value.in otherwords, Inside Out shows us that the goal of life isn’t “to be happy”. We will feel sad, angry or frightened.But we need our whole range of emotions for developing our sense of self and our relationship withothers.4According to the author, Joy is different in appearance because ________.A. it is the leading character in our lifeB. that shows it is joyful for a reasonC. that shows it doesn’t just mean pure joyD. the director wants to make it prettier5Why does a wedding end with the breaking of a glass?A. To remind the new couple not to overjoyB. To show the world we live in isn’t perfectC. To remind the new couple to pay attention to happinessD. To show the new couple about the real meaning of marriage6The underlined part “the reverse is often true” in Paragraph 4 means ________.A. sadness is as important as joyB. happiness doesn’t last very longC. sadness can sometimes lead us to joyD. we should never be too happy about something7The movie Inside Out is mean to tell us that ________.A. we should attempt to be as happy as possibleB. we should control our negative emotionsC. developing our sense of self isn’t that easyD. we need both positive and negative emotionsCThe booking notes of the play “the Age of Innocence”:Price: $10BOOKINGThere are four easy ways to book seats for performance:In personThe Box Office is open Monday to Saturday, 10a.m-8p.m.By telephoneRing 01324976 to reserve your tickets or to pay by credit card (Visa, MasterCard and Amexaccepted)By postSimply complete the booking form and return it to Global Theatre Box Office.

The tickets for group bookingDOne of my all time favorite holiday destinations is the Gold Coast. With its beautiful beaches,mountain hinterland and theme parks, the variety from one location to another is fantastic! And it’s alsoimportant that its like a playground for my children.The Gold Coast certainly offers something for every member of our family. We all love headingdown to the beach for an early morning swim or surf. The beaches feature some of the softest golden sandand pumping waves, making them ideal for surfing. Safety is important especially when I'm out with thekids, and I feel better knowing that lifeguards are continually on patrol巡逻. The long coas also offerthe perfect setting for a leisurely walk at sunset-a favorite activity of mine. Then, of course, there’s the bargain-hunting in the city’s center. For shoppings goers there areamazing shopping centers boutiques and the usual chain stores. I always pick up loads of goodies atPacific Fair.The Gold Coast is popular for its theme parks-Sea World, Wamer Bros Movie World and DreamWorld. The seal and dolphin presentations at Sea World keep both children and adults on the edge of theirseats as the sea creatures go through a series of complicated jumps, flips and rolls. It’s great entertainmentand an educational window to the underwater world for the kids. Our kids also enjoy meeting thecharacters at Movie World and watching how real movies are made.Night-time is equally fun, as we usually set off to find the best local restaurants and cafes. The mix ofcultures and influences has given the Gold Coast a wide variety of choices, including modem Australian,Italian, Asian and seafood, although sometimes nothing beats fish and chips!A visit to the Gold Coast in the Sunshine State is worthwhile and fun.12Why does the author consider the Gold Coast as her ideal holiday destination?A. There are a lot of shopping centers.B. The whole family can have fun thereC. It’s a safe and interesting place for kidsD.

In Canada, we have a greathealthcare system. That means we get our new hips for free.My hip had been hurting me for years before I went to the doctor. Of course, it was free. She referredme to a surgeon, but the earliest appointment was in 10 months. That is what being free gets you. Tenmonths later, after some free X-rays, the surgeon told me I needed surgery, which was about an 18-monthwait, for some senior citizens had been on the operation list. Another 18 months! I dragged myself out ofthe surgeon’s office.Walking through the hospital, I thought about the situation. As the breadwinner of a large family, Icouldn’t wait that long, so I had to get to the front line. I was fully aware of what a Canadian should belike (Canadians are usually considered gentle and ca-ring), but this time I really needed to fight for myself.At that very moment, in the shop window of the hospital, I saw a sign which read, “Volunteers Needed.”Suddenly, an idea occurred to me—I would get the job. Fortunately, they signed me up immediatelybecause the average age of the volunteers at the shop was 75. They were desperate for some young blood.Every Friday morning, I was at the shop. While seeing the hospital staff, I’d casually be asked, Whatdo you do? Then ld tell them, Well, lm getting my hip replaced—in 18 months. It’s going to be so greatwhen the pain stops. Soon, all the staff got to know me. Naturally, in my next appointment, the surgeonrecognized me. Moments later, I had a surgery date just weeks away.I had to say it was actually my volunteering that got me to the front of the line. And I’m not ashamedof it, for I intend to stick with the volunteering. Also, even when I cheated the system, I did it in a way thatbenefits society.19What can we infer from the second paragraph?A. She felt rather disappointed.B. She couldn’t walk because of the pain.C. She was too scared to have the surgery.D. She didn’t believe what the surgeon said.20Why did the writer decide to be a volunteer?A. To donate blood to the hospital.B. To get her new hip free of charge.C. To receive some tiny gifts from others.D. To approach the doctor for early surgery.21What did the author think of her cheat?A. It was a shame.B. It was a pride.C. It was beneficial.D. It was a fair deal.22Which can be the best title for the text?A. How I Got My New HipB. The Doctor Who Saved My LifeC. How to Be a Volunteer in HospitalD. The Problem of Canada’s Healthcare SystemGWe all love bank holidays. In the UK, we only get eight bank holidays in one year, and at least five ofthose occur around Christmas time and Easter time! A bank holiday is a British English term. This is anofficial day that is decided by the government, when banks, shops and offices close for the day eventhough it’s a weekday—usually a Monday, and a lot of people have a day off work. Bank holidays are different in Colombia -firstly, they are called “festivos”. There are twenty festivosfor the whole country in one year! In Britain, people get more holiday allowances(津贴)than Colombiansbut fewer bank holidays. There can be even more festivos in Colombia, depending on which region ofColombia you live in. This is because different regions have their own holidays. For example, someregions have a patron saint(守卫神), so they have an extra festivo to celebrate that saint.However, there are some days that are national holidays for historical reasons. There is anIndependence Day celebration on July 20 every year. This is just like Bastille Day in France on July 14, orIndependence Day in the United States on July4. Other important festivos in Colombia are: Labour Day,on May 1, and Columbus Day on October 12. Columbus Day is a historical bank holiday that almostevery county on the continent of America celebrates. This includes Colombia, Chile, Peru, Argentina,Mexico and the United States. It is memorialization of the day when the Italian sailor,ChristopherColumbus, first reached land on the continent in the year 1492. Many people criticize this day and say it isnot something to celebrate because of the way Columbus and his team treated the people that werealready living there.23What is a “bank holiday” according to the text?A. An official nationwide vacation.B. A holiday only for the bank staff.C. A British traditional religion festival.D. A celebration for Christmas and Easter.24What can we learn from Paragraph2?A. Colombia and Britain have the same number of festivos.B. All Colombians have the same number of festivos.C. Colombians have fewer holiday allowances than British people.D. People in most regions celebrate a patron saint.25Why do many Americans refuse to celebrate Columbus Day?A. Because Columbus wasn’t an American at all.B. Because Columbus once treated the locals badly.C. Because it wasn’t Columbus who found America first.D. Because Columbus didn’t live in the continent of America.26What is the text mainly about?A. A British English term.B. Bank holidays in Colombia.C. Important festivos in America.D. Different bank holidays in the world.HCompanion planting is the idea that some kinds of plants can help each other grow. Plants that arecompatible together generally have similar needs in terms of nutrients, soil and moisture levels.Advice about which plants are compatible is sometimes based more on tradition than proof. Butexperts say there is evidence to support certain combinations. These can improve harvests, reduce diseaseand help with pest control by attracting helpful insects.For example, some kinds of soil bacteria take nitrogen(氮气) the air and make it into a form thatplants can use. The plants hold the nitrogen in their roots. Legumes(豆科植物)are especially good at thisnitrogen-fixing. Then any crops that share the same space with the legumes can get the nitrogen—whenthe roots are broken down.Beans and potatoes can also share territory well because their roots reach different levels in the soil.Deep-rooted vegetables get nutrients and moisture from lower down in the soil, so they do not competewith plants with shallower roots.But some plants placed together may harm each other’s development. For example, tomatoes do notlike wet soil but watercress does, so you would probably want to keep them separated. Some kinds of produce should be kept apart even after being harvested. This is because of ethylenegas(乙烯气体). Ethylene is a plant hormone(激素) that can cause some foods to ripen too quickly.Apples release ethylene gas. Apricots, melons and tomatoes also release a lot of ethylene gas. Somevegetables are easily affected by ethylene, including asparagus, broccoli, cabbage and cucumbers.This risk of ripening too soon is why markets often separate high ethylene-producing foods fromthose that are sensitive to the gas. But if you put an apple in a bag with a green banana, the ethylene fromthe apple will make the banana ready to eat sooner.What about peaches, plums and nectarines? These kinds of fruit do not need any help from an applethey release enough ethylene to ripen themselves. But that does not mean there is no way to get the jobdone faster.Growers suggest placing the fruit in a fruit bowl or in a paper bag with the top folded over. Keep thefruit at room temperature, out of direct sunlight. Once the fruit is soft enough, either eat it or put it in therefrigerator to keep it from getting too ripe.27Companion planting refers to the idea that .A. some crops can grow together to benefit each otherB. some crops have the similar needs of nutrients, soil and moisture levelsC. some plants can damage each other if grown togetherD. a good farming method to prevent natural disasters28According to the text, cannot grow together.A. beans and potatoesB. tomatoes and watercressC. legumes and cornsD. rice and sugarcane29What is the function of ethylene?A. To improve the quality of fruits.B. To produce a poisonous gas.C. To keep vegetables fresh.D. To make fruits ripe earlier.30The text is most likely to be taken from .A. a newspaper of medicineB. a magazine of biologyC. a journal of agricultureD. a travel report二、七选五31题文Confidence is a skill that many folks want to master, but have a hard time acquiring.Have you ever wondered why?

These are the kinds of questions I’ve been wondering about since I first read thebestseller The Life-Changing Magic of Tidying Up by Japanese organization expert Marie Kondo.As people who have followed her program on tidying know, Kondo suggests we ask ourselves thesimple question, “32” It’s these four words that lead to a series of reflections on everyday things anda global movement.33 These could be your clothes, old CDs, photographs or anything else you think you should“let go of”. You lift one object from the pile and hold it in your hands and ask yourself whether it createsjoy. 34Is that scarf your great-aunt knitted (织) you too ugly to wear? Our minds can persuade us to hold onto everything, but our hearts are more courageous. 35Over the course of several months, as I dropped more into the donation bag, my chest swelled withjoy; Giving away two-thirds of my stuff(东西) to various charities—Kondo says that gifting friends andfamily our unwanted stuff is unfair and actually prevents us from moving on—meant more to me than justa tidier home. 36 If one day, all my clothes, books, and other things disappeared, I would still bethe exact same person I was before, just with fewer things.A.

One day, we were walking in our hometown and saw hundreds of cigarette butts on the ground. They made the town look so ugly that we decided to start a group to make people stop dropping butts. We called it “No Butts About It”. At first, we drew pictures with “The Earth is Not Your As htray(烟灰缸)” written on them. We put the pictures around our hometown---in parks, by beaches, and along roads. We wanted to make people understand that dropping butts hurts the environment. Most smokers don’t think that dropping butts hurts the earth. But i t does! All rubbish does. Later, we wrote to companies and asked them for money to help us. We used the money to buy ashtrays to give smokers. We wanted smokers to carry the ashtrays with them so they didn’t have to drop butts. At the moment, we are trying to get cigarette companies to put an ashtray in each pack of cigarettes. Some companies want to do it.Many people have started to join our group since it began. Today there are 45 other “No Butts About It” groups in America. And there are even groups in England, Australia and India! Many newspapers have written about my sister and I over the last seven years. And we have won many prizes for our good work.But we are not interested in prizes. We just want to make the earth a better and cleaner place for animals, plants and people. One day it will be.1.(小题1)“No Butts About It” started___________A.seventeen years ago.

Getting ahead is as simple as tidying your desk.According to a leading expert, having a cluttered environment reflects a cluttered mind, but the act of tidying up can help you be more successful. The advice comes from Jayne Morris, the resident"life coach" for NHS Online, who said it is no good just moving the mess around. In order to clear the mind, unwanted items must be thrown away to free your "inner world", she said.Ms Morris, who claims to have coached celebrities to major business figures, said:“Clearing clutter from your desk has the power to transform your business. " How? Because clutter in your outer environment is the physical sign of all the clutter going on inside of you. " Clearing clutter has a chain effect across your entire life, including your work. Having an untidy desk covered in clutter could be stopping you achieving the business success you want. " She is sure cleaning up will be helpful even though some of history's biggest achievers lived and worked in messy conditions.Churchill was considered untidy from a boy throughout his life, from his office to his artist's studio,and the lab where Alexander Fleming discovered penicillin was famously untidy.Among the recommendations is that simply tidying a desk at work and an overflowing filing cabinet(陈列柜) will instantly have a positive impact on "your inner world. " Anything that is no longer used should not be put into storage but thrown away completely.Keeping something in the loft, garage or other part of the house, does not help because it is still connected to the person "by tiny energetic li.nes", Ms Morris. claims.She said, "The things in your life that are useful to you, that add value to your life, that serve a current purpose are charged with positive energy that refreshes you and enriches your life. But the things that you don't ever use and don't need anymore have the opposite effect on your energy.Things that no longer fit or serve you, use up your energy. "1.The underlined word "cluttered" (in Para.2) is closest, in meaning to __________A.messyB.briefC.complexD.aggressive2.Which of the following statements does Ms Morris agree toA.hanging the position of staff frequently will help to build up a clear mind.B.A tidy office will lead to a success in your business affairs in no time.C.To have a free mind, we need to throw away unneeded items at times.D.Y ou can pack up your things in garage or loft to cheer you up.3.According to Ms Morris, an untidy desk probably means thatA.you are quite a failureB.you are in a messy mindC.you are toe tired to deal with itD.you have achieved the business success4.Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?A.Less untidy, more successful.B.How to improve your inner world.C.Cleaning up makes you less intelligent.D.Being bigger achiever needs more effortC15、Table manners are how to behave when you have a meal. They include how to handle knives, forks and spoons and how to eat in a polite manner. To behave well abroad, you should know some table manners.EATING MANNERSJapan: It is "perfectly"okay to slurp when you eat noodles. Unlike making big noises, slurping slightly is not rude. Japanese also say it tastes better if you slurp.Russia: Your wrists should be placed on the edge of the table while eating, fork in left hand, and knife in the right. It is not good manners to rest them on your lap. Keep your elbows off the table. Leave some food on your plate to show that the host has give you enough to eat.France: Never discuss money or religion over dinner. What is different from the manners in Russia is that finishing everything on your plate is considered good manners.Mexico: Whenever you catch the eye of someone who’s eating, even a stranger, it’s good manners to say "provecho", which means enjoy. In Mexico, dining is more than a meal. It’s a social occasion — lunches are seldom quick and suppers can last for hours. Before you get seated, look for place cards, or wait until the host seats you. And you must say "enjoy your meal"before you leave the table.DRINKING MANNERSAmerica: If you empty a bottle into someone’s glass, it obliges that person to buy the next bottle. It’s polite to put the last drops into your own glass.Australia: In a pub it’s usual to buy a round of drinks for everyone in your group. When it’s your turn, say "It’s my round". When it’s their round, they will buy it for you. Don’t leave before you’ve bought a round.Jap an: Don’t fill your own glass of alcohol. Instead, you should pour for others and wait for them to do it for you. 1.You are in Mexico, you should ________________.A.keep silent if you catch the eye of a strangerB.eat as quickly as you can to save your timeC.say "enjoy your meal"before you leave the table2.When you eat noodles in Japan, you should ________________.A.slurp loudly B.slurp slightlyC.not to make any noise3.According to the passage, it is good manners to ________________.A.keep quiet when eating noodles in JapanB.leave some food on your plate in FranceC.take turns to treat each other for drinks in Australia4.Which of the following can be the best title of this passage?A.Eating manners B.Drinking mannersC.Table manners5.The writer tells us the table manners in many countries in order to ________________.A.attract us to these countries to enjoy foreign foodB.help us behave in a polite manner in different countriesC.teach us how to handle knives, forks and spoonsD16、It is reported that some developed countries have shipped broken parts of computers to China. Last month Hong Kong officers found 131,000 kilograms of broken computers, TVs and phones sent from Japan.Things like these are called electronic waste, or e-waste. Dealing with them is not an easy job. Every time an old computer breaks down, it needs to be dealt with safely. What is worse, at present, broken computer parts are usually buried.It may be hundreds of years before they are really gone in the earth.Many places in China are polluted by e-waste. Guiyu in Guangdong Province is one of them. This town is named as “the ewaste capital of the world”.It has to deal with 1.5 million kilograms of e-waste each year, from which it makes 75 million yuan. But it comes at a cost. Many of the poison in e-waste find their way int o the environment.

They found that populations of this dragonfly, called Pantala flavescens, in Texas, eastern Canada, Japan, Korea, India, and South America, have genesso similar that there is only one likely explanation. Obviously these dragonflies are traveling distances that are quite long for their small size, breeding with each other, and creating a common gene pool.But how do dragonflies from different continents manage to meet and breed? Ware says it appears to be the way their bodies have evolved. For example, they increased surface areas on their wings that enable them to use the wind to carry them.Dragonflies, in fact, have already been found crossing the Indian Ocean from Asia to Africa. "They are following the weather," says Daniel Troast. "They're going from India where it's dry season to Africa where it's wet season, and they do it once a year.”Wetness is important for Pantala, and that is why they would take such a dangerous trip. Though many willdie on the route, as long as enough make it, the species survives. For the moment, the details of this wonderfulinsect trip are an educated best guess. Much more work is needed to be done. Ware and Troast hope thatscientists can work on figuring out those routes.1.What shows Pantala flavescens are the world’s longest-distance flyers?A.Scientists have recorded the dragonfly across the world.B.The same dragonfly was found both in Asia and America.C.There are many Pantala flavescens in different continents.D.Pantala fiavescens in different continents have similar genes.2.What may help Pantala flavescens fly over so long distance?A.Their special body shape. B.Their special and strong wings.C.Their small and light body. D.Their strong sense of direction.3.What is necessary for Pantala flavescens to breed?A.Wet weather. B.Warm places. C.Dry environment. D.Enough sunshine.4.Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A.Scientists have found the details of the trip.B.Dragonflies leave India because of the dry season.C.Dragonflies can hardly survive after such a dangerous trip.D.The dragonfly is animal world's best short distance traveler.B14、About 3 months ago, my father was in hospital recovering from a major lung operation. My mother had recently passed away, and my father had taken the loss of his partner of 58 years very hard and had lost interest in life. It was quite difficult to try to get him to eat each day as he didn’t want anything. The one thing, however, that he would ask us to bring him was ice cream.One evening, to our surprise, he refused to eat the ice cream, so I placed it in a staffroom refrigerator. A little while later, my son said he wanted it, so I fetched it for him. As I passed another ward (病房), a woman asked, “Are there more where that came from?” When I explained, she seemed very disappo inted. She then said that she had cancer and could eat very little other than the occasional ice cream.The next evening, I decided to buy two ice creams. On the way to dad’s room, I came into the sick woman’s room, and offered her the ice cream I’d bought for her. She was totally astonished that I had thought of her, and accepted the gift with tears in her eyes. I spoke with her for a few minutes, explaining what was happening in my family and listened to her similar story of pain and suffering. It wasobviousthat she did not have many visitors.I repeated the gesture a few days later, and this time I received a warm hug. I never even thought to ask her name and never saw her again, but it made me realize that a simple act of kindness can bring joy to a pers on’s unfortunate life.根据材料内容选择最佳答案,并将其标号填入题前括号内。
