She has even been compared to Margaret Th atcher and many people called her "Iron Lady".Merkel was born in Hamburg, West Germany, on July 17, 1954. Six weeks after she was born, her family moved to Templin. As a small child, Merkel quickly learned to speak but took longer to walk. "I was a stupid person when it comes to moving," Merkel said. "A normal person could do somet hing naturally, but I had to think about it in my mind and practice." As a t eenager, she was a top student and graduated from high school with perfect marks. In 1973, Merkel went to the University of Leipzig, where she studied physics. At 32, she got her doctor's degree in Physics.She stepped into politics in 1989. In her first big political job as Ministerfor the Environment in 1994, her scientific background and strong will proved very useful. In 2005, she became Germany's Chancellor. She has been re-elected to a second term as German Chancellor on September27, 2009.Through her political career, Merkel's persistence (坚持) and patience helped her a lot. "She's bright and open-minded," said Hubert Merkel. "She is the person who wants to know exactly what is going on, and how never gi ving up will influence our society and future."26. As a small child, Merkel was slow in _____.A. speakingB. learningC. walkingD. thinking27. The underlined phrase in Paragraph3 most probably means "_____".A. fought the governmentB. became a government officialC. offered political guidanceD. began her scientific career28. We can infer from the passage that Angela Merkel _____.A. got her doctor's degree in Politics in University of LeipzigB. is a powerful woman with a strong will and determinationC. has worked as German Chancellor since September27, 2009D. showed her best talent as Minister for the Environment29. In the last paragraph, the author mainly wants to express _____.A. one must be brave in the political careerB. one should be patient when making decisionsC. one can have a strong will when other's haven'tD. persistence can help one's dream come true30. What's the author's attitude toward Angela Merkel?A. Pitiful. C. Admiring (赞美的).B. Thankful. D. Dull.B篇From the first use of the rocket to carry satellites into space to the setting up of space stations, human beings have been putting great effort into space research. And so far, we have achieved many successes. But there are still numerous tasks in front of us and we should not cease trying to progress.The international space station is an important step we should take in space exploration. It is not only helpful but also essential. It provides a proper space environment for many experiments that we have wanted to do for a long time. It is also a base for the observations of the earth and the universe. It could also be an important base for later travel to the moon and Mars. In a word, if we want to explore space more, the first thing we should do is to set up a space station.As the space station costs a lot of money, it is hard for one country alone to establish one. The USA seems to be the only country that has the ability to build aspace station alone, and it has tried to do so, but not very successful. So it aggregated many other countries to work on it together. Though it is still extremely expensive, it is much cheaper than doing it alone. It is really a job that needs everyone's effort and will benefit everyone.But even so, the funds needed are still a big problem. As for the USA, it seems that it has too many things to spend its money on. Although it is the richest country in the world, it has much debt every year. It has to make arrangements about its finance,a try to find a balance in all these issues.31. What is the author‟s attitude towards building and developing the international space station?A. Dissatisfied.B. Doubtful.C. Critical.D. Supportive.32. From Paragraph 2 we learn that __________.A. the necessity of building the international space station is not realized nowB. the international space station is necessary for people to explore space moreC. many experiments have been done in the international space stationD. people have traveled to Mars from the international space station33. Which of the following is NOT a reason for countries' cooperation in building the international space station?A. That it requires a lot of money.B. That it needs everyone‟s effort.C. That it will benefit every participating country.D. That it is too far away from the earth.34. The underlined word "aggregated" in Paragraph 3 can be replaced by"__________".A. allowedB. scoldedC. unitedD. forbade35. Which of the following aspects about building the international space station is NOT mentioned in the passage?A. Difficulties.B. Specific arrangements.C. Cooperation.D. Significance.C篇Kids will often ignore your requests for them to turn off the TV, start their chores (杂事), or do their homework as a way to avoid following your directions. Before you know it, you've started to sound like a broken record as you repeatedly ask them to do their assignments, clean their rooms, or take out the trash. Rather than saying "Do your chores now." you'll be more effective if you set a target time for when the chores have to be completed. So instead of arguing about starting chores, just say, "If chores aren't done by 4 pm, here are the consequences." Then it's up to your child to complete the chores. Put the ball back in their court. Don't argue or fight with them, just say, "That's the way it's going to be." It shouldn't be punitive (惩罚性的) as much as it should be persuasive. "If your chores aren't done by 4 pm, then no video game time until chores are done. And if finishing those chores runs into homework time, that's going to be your loss." On the other hand, when dealing with homework, keep it very simple. Have a time when homework starts, and at that time, all electronics go off and do not go back on until you see that their homework is done. If your kids saythey have no homework, then they should use that time to study orread. Either way, there should be a time set aside when the electronics are off.When a kid wears his iPod or headphones when you're trying to talk to him, make no bones about it; he is not ignoring you, he is disrespecting you. At that point, everything else should stop until he takes the earplugs out of his ears. Don't try to communicate with him when he's wearing headphones-even if he tells you he can hear you. Wearing them while you're talking to him is a sign of disrespect. Parents should be very tough about this kind of thing. Remember, mutual respect becomes more important as children become mature.36. According to the passage, it seldom happens that _____.A.children are ready to follow their parents' directionsB. parents' directions sound like a broken recordC. kids turn a deaf ear to their parents' requestsD. parents are unaware of what they are repeating to their kids37. Parents will be able to deal with their children more effective- ly if they _____.A. argue and fight with their childrenB. make them do things at their requestC. avoid direct ways of punishmentD. allow their children to behave in their own way38. When the kid is doing his homework, parents _____.A. must switch off the powerB. can do whatever they likeC. can stay aside watching TVD. should provide him with a good learning environment39. It can be inferred from the passage that _____.A. parents should take off his headphones when trying to have a talk with their childB. it will make no difference that a kid is wearing his earplugs while talking to his parentsC. parents shouldn't give in to their kid when he shows no sign of respectD. kids' purposely talking to their parents with iPod gives them a sense of power and control40. The main idea of the passage is _____.A. that respecting each other is more important than anything elseB. how parents can deal with their kids' behavior effectivelyC. that children should make choices and decisions on their ownD. how kids behave to ignore and disrespect their parentsD篇Growing up, I wanted to be just like my mom. She was kind. People always seemed to feel comfortable in her presence. For years, she was a volunteer in our community. I loved going to the local nursing home with her where she taught a ceramic class.On one summer day, Mama told me to get changed and meet her at the car.I had planned to spend the day at the lake with friends. Why did she have to ruin everything? I imagined the cool lake water. Irritated, I climbed into the car andslammed the door shut. We sat in silence. I was too upset to make conversation.“Tasha, would you like to know where we are going?” Mama asked calmly.“No,” I said.“We are going to volunteer at a children‟s shelter today. I have been there before and I think it would benefit you,” she explained.When we reached the shelter, Mama rang the doorbell. Moments later, we were greeted by a woman. She led us to the front room where all of the children were playing. I noticed a baby whose body was scarred with iron marks. I was told it was because she wouldn‟t stop crying. The majority of the children had noticeable physical scars. Others hid their emotional wounds.As I took in my surroundings, I felt a gentle tug on my shirt. I looked down to see a little girl looking up at me. “Hi. You want to play dolls with me?” she asked. I looked over at Mama for reinforcement. She smiled and nodded. I turned back and said, “Sure.” Her tiny hand reached up and held mine, as if to comfort me.My mom taught me a valuable lesson that summer. I returned to the shelter with her several times. During those visits, some of the children shared their troubled pasts with me and I learned to be grateful for what I had. Today as I strive to instill (逐渐灌输) these values in my own child, I reflect back to that experience. It was a time that I will never forget.41.The author admired her mom for ________.A．her quality of honesty B．her excellent teachingC．her kindness to others D．her positive attitude to life42.According to Paragraph 3, when she was asked to go out with her mom, the author was ________.A．excited B．angry C．surprised D．worried43. From the passage we learn most children in the shelter ________.A．were once treated badly B．weren‟t allowed to go outsideC．were often punished by staff D．all suffered from mental illness44. The underlined word “reinforcement”in the passage is closest in meaning to “________”.A．truth B．help C．comfort D．support45.What lesson did the author learn from her experience?A．To value what you take for granted. B．To play with children is fun.C．To love others is to love yourself. D．To do as what your parents do.III 用下列所给英语词语造句。

About a month ago, while in the drive through at Starbucks, I noticed a woman in a car behind me who appeared to be having a bad day. There were two kids in the back who seemed to have too much1at 8 am on a Sunday morning, because they were shouting loudly. The 2 moved slowly and at one point while I was pulling the car forward, the sad woman behind me 3 my car. I could tell this 4 her. The entire time that I waited in line for my coffee this woman didn’t 5 .Looking back at her I could tell she was wondering “Why me? Why today?” When I 6 up and paid for my coffee I requested that the barista(咖啡吧员) of Starbucks give the woman behind me a smile card and paid for her coffee.Just 30 minutes ago I was again 7 in line at Starbucks. I heard a slam of a car door but thought nothing of it. I was 8 when the same woman came up to my driver’s side window. She 9 me a twenty-dollar bill and the same smile card I had given to her. She smiled and said, “These are for you. You are the 10 one who gave these to me 11 , right? All I need you to do is ask the barista to give the 12 back to me.”I t was amazing!

It’s also widely known as a traditional handcraft and has a long history going back to more than 1300 years ago. Duan Inkstone became universally popular in Song Dynasty, when it was favored by ancient Chinese literati. Nowadays, many collectors would add to their collection of Duan Inkstone owing to its wide varieties, high quality, let alone its beautiful design. As an important writing tool, Duan Inkstone has played a very important role in spreading Chinese culture, and it is also a symbol of profound cultural background of Zhaoqing.第二节：One possible version:A man noticed a boy repeatedly picking up the trapped starfish and throwing them into the sea despite being unable to save all of them. Consequently, the man was moved and joined the boy to save the struggling starfish.Reading the impressive story, I find the boy was so kind-hearted that he should really deserve praise from all the people. Young as he was, he fulfilled what was incredible to people. Actually, the young boy set a good example, especially to the young.My meaningful experience of offering help to a schoolmate will never escape from my memory. When I was in Senior Two, one of my schoolmates suffered from asevere and rare disease, which cost his parents all their savings and even put them heavily into debt. For lack of money, he was unable to get further medical treatment. Knowing this, I together with my classmates called for all the students and friends to collect money for him. It was our timely efforts that helped him out of hardships. Eventually he was saved.As the saying goes, “A small act of kindness goes a long way.” Therefore, I appeal to all the people to get involved in the campaign of offering a hand to others. I think only when we offer assistance to each other voluntarily can we live in a harmonious society.。

【小题2】A 【小题3】A 【小题4】D【解析】12．B 考查推理判断．文章开头一段提到由于汽油价格的暴涨，久违的自行车再次受到人们的追捧，因为骑自行车非常舒服而且便宜，由此可推测此项正确．其余三项都不是主要原因．13．A 考查细节理解．从"They discovered that biking could be enjoyable…and cheap""Bike traffic increased by 11 percent"而得此答案．14．A 考查推理判断．从本文第三段中的"They also say bicycle-riding is a good form of exercise"可得此答案．15．D考查细节理解．根据题干中的but一词可知要叙述的是骑自行车的缺点，第四段叙述的是在城市中骑自行车的危险，因此选择此项．其余三项在文章中没有信息支持．文章大意：日益上涨的石油价格让阔别已久的自行车再次走入人们的视野，形成了一道亮丽的风景线，可如何解决由此引发的交通事故却迫在眉睫．也许设置专门的自行车道是最好的解决办法，但是，行得通吗？在做阅读理解时，可遵循三部曲的原则，即：快速阅读短文，了解文章大意；然后认真逐题作答；复查校对答案．16.【答案】大量，许多【解析】答案：大量，许多．根据所给短语可知，考查动词短语的表达，故答案为大量，许多．大量，许多此题较简单，根据所给短语可直接确定答案．17.【答案】【解析】答案：灰心，失去信心．根据所给短语可知，考查动词短语的表达，故答案为灰心，失去信心．灰心，失去信心此题较简单，根据汉意可直接确定答案．18.【答案】【解析】答案：下定决心．根据所给短语可知，考查常用动词短语的表达，故答案为下定决心．下定决心此题较简单，根据汉意可直接确定答案．19.【答案】依靠，依赖【解析】答案：依靠，依赖．根据所给短语可知，考查动词短语的表达，故答案为依靠，依赖．依靠，依赖此题较简单，根据汉意可直接确定答案．20.【答案】寻找，搜查【解析】答案：寻找，搜查．根据所给短语可知，考查动词短语的表达，故答案为寻找，搜查．寻找，搜查此题较简单，根据汉意可直接确定答案．21.【答案】Ididntgodownstairsuntilthewindowhadtobeshut【解析】I didn't go downstairsuntil the window had to be shut．这是对过去事实的描述，所以使用一般过去时．根据句意"一直等到非关窗不可的时候才下楼去"可知，本句可使用句式not…until…直到…才…；have to do sth不得不做某事，本句中要使用被动结构，表示窗户被关．I didn't go downstairsuntil the window had to be shut．翻译题在解题是首先要确定好句子的时态，然后要把握好短语表达，最后要注意句子结构．22.【答案】AtaboutamonJulysomepeoplesawbrightlightsintheshy【解析】At about 3：00 am on July 28，1976，some people saw bright lights in the shy．根据句中的时间状语可知，这是对过去事实的描述所以用一般过去时．本句可使用一个包含主谓宾结构的简单句来表达，在翻译时要注意时间的表达法．At about 3：00 am on July 28，1976，some people saw bright lights in the shy．注意恰当选用句子的时态，准确表达句子的意思就能够翻译准确．23.【答案】No other countries

formed clubs in order to get more familiar with them．这是对过去事实的叙述，所以使用一般过去时．结合句意"他们如此受欢迎，以致歌迷们为了更熟悉他们而成立了俱乐部"可知，本句可使用句式so…that…如此…以至于…；that引导一个结果状语从句；后面再使用一个in order to不定式作目的状语．They were so popular that their fans formed clubs in order to get more familiar with them．正确运用状语从句的连接词，理解相关动词的含义及用法很重要．25.【答案】Workersbuiltsheltersforsurvivorswhosehomeshadbeendestroyed【解析】Workers built shelters for survivors whose homes had been destroyed．这是对过去事实的描述，所以使用一般过去时．根据括号中的要求，我们可使用whose引导的定语从句来修饰先行词survivors，build shelters for sb为某人建立避难所．Workers built shelters for survivors whose homes had been destroyed．翻译题在解题是首先要确定好句子的时态，然后要把握好短语表达，最后要注意句子结构．26.【答案】【小题1】D 【小题2】B 【小题3】A 【小题4】C 【小题5】B 【小题6】D 【小题7】A 【小题8】C 【小题9】B 【小题10】D 【小题11】A 【小题12】C 【小题13】B 【小题14】D 【小题15】A 【小题16】D 【小题17】B 【小题18】B 【小题19】A

She has even been compared to Margaret Th atcher and many people called her "Iron Lady".Merkel was born in Hamburg, West Germany, on July 17, 1954. Six weeks after she was born, her family moved to Templin. As a small child, Merkel quickly learned to speak but took longer to walk. "I was a stupid person when it comes to moving," Merkel said. "A normal person could do somet hing naturally, but I had to think about it in my mind and practice." As a t eenager, she was a top student and graduated from high school with perfect marks. In 1973, Merkel went to the University of Leipzig, where she studied physics. At 32, she got her doctor's degree in Physics.She stepped into politics in 1989. In her first big political job as Ministerfor the Environment in 1994, her scientific background and strong will proved very useful. In 2005, she became Germany's Chancellor. She has been re-elected to a second term as German Chancellor on September27, 2009.Through her political career, Merkel's persistence (坚持) and patience helped her a lot. "She's bright and open-minded," said Hubert Merkel. "She is the person who wants to know exactly what is going on, and how never gi ving up will influence our society and future."26. As a small child, Merkel was slow in _____.A. speakingB. learningC. walkingD. thinking27. The underlined phrase in Paragraph3 most probably means "_____".A. fought the governmentB. became a government officialC. offered political guidanceD. began her scientific career28. We can infer from the passage that Angela Merkel _____.A. got her doctor's degree in Politics in University of LeipzigB. is a powerful woman with a strong will and determinationC. has worked as German Chancellor since September27, 2009D. showed her best talent as Minister for the Environment29. In the last paragraph, the author mainly wants to express _____.A. one must be brave in the political careerB. one should be patient when making decisionsC. one can have a strong will when other's haven'tD. persistence can help one's dream come true30. What's the author's attitude toward Angela Merkel?A. Pitiful. C. Admiring (赞美的).B. Thankful. D. Dull.B篇From the first use of the rocket to carry satellites into space to the setting up of space stations, human beings have been putting great effort into space research. And so far, we have achieved many successes. But there are still numerous tasks in front of us and we should not cease trying to progress.The international space station is an important step we should take in space exploration. It is not only helpful but also essential. It provides a proper space environment for many experiments that we have wanted to do for a long time. It is also a base for the observations of the earth and the universe. It could also be an important base for later travel to the moon and Mars. In a word, if we want to explore space more, the first thing we should do is to set up a space station.As the space station costs a lot of money, it is hard for one country alone to establish one. The USA seems to be the only country that has the ability to build aspace station alone, and it has tried to do so, but not very successful. So it aggregated many other countries to work on it together. Though it is still extremely expensive, it is much cheaper than doing it alone. It is really a job that needs everyone's effort and will benefit everyone.But even so, the funds needed are still a big problem. As for the USA, it seems that it has too many things to spend its money on. Although it is the richest country in the world, it has much debt every year. It has to make arrangements about its finance,a try to find a balance in all these issues.31. What is the author‟s attitude towards building and developing the international space station?A. Dissatisfied.B. Doubtful.C. Critical.D. Supportive.32. From Paragraph 2 we learn that __________.A. the necessity of building the international space station is not realized nowB. the international space station is necessary for people to explore space moreC. many experiments have been done in the international space stationD. people have traveled to Mars from the international space station33. Which of the following is NOT a reason for countries' cooperation in building the international space station?A. That it requires a lot of money.B. That it needs everyone‟s effort.C. That it will benefit every participating country.D. That it is too far away from the earth.34. The underlined word "aggregated" in Paragraph 3 can be replaced by"__________".A. allowedB. scoldedC. unitedD. forbade35. Which of the following aspects about building the international space station is NOT mentioned in the passage?A. Difficulties.B. Specific arrangements.C. Cooperation.D. Significance.C篇Kids will often ignore your requests for them to turn off the TV, start their chores (杂事), or do their homework as a way to avoid following your directions. Before you know it, you've started to sound like a broken record as you repeatedly ask them to do their assignments, clean their rooms, or take out the trash. Rather than saying "Do your chores now." you'll be more effective if you set a target time for when the chores have to be completed. So instead of arguing about starting chores, just say, "If chores aren't done by 4 pm, here are the consequences." Then it's up to your child to complete the chores. Put the ball back in their court. Don't argue or fight with them, just say, "That's the way it's going to be." It shouldn't be punitive (惩罚性的) as much as it should be persuasive. "If your chores aren't done by 4 pm, then no video game time until chores are done. And if finishing those chores runs into homework time, that's going to be your loss." On the other hand, when dealing with homework, keep it very simple. Have a time when homework starts, and at that time, all electronics go off and do not go back on until you see that their homework is done. If your kids saythey have no homework, then they should use that time to study orread. Either way, there should be a time set aside when the electronics are off.When a kid wears his iPod or headphones when you're trying to talk to him, make no bones about it; he is not ignoring you, he is disrespecting you. At that point, everything else should stop until he takes the earplugs out of his ears. Don't try to communicate with him when he's wearing headphones-even if he tells you he can hear you. Wearing them while you're talking to him is a sign of disrespect. Parents should be very tough about this kind of thing. Remember, mutual respect becomes more important as children become mature.36. According to the passage, it seldom happens that _____.A.children are ready to follow their parents' directionsB. parents' directions sound like a broken recordC. kids turn a deaf ear to their parents' requestsD. parents are unaware of what they are repeating to their kids37. Parents will be able to deal with their children more effective- ly if they _____.A. argue and fight with their childrenB. make them do things at their requestC. avoid direct ways of punishmentD. allow their children to behave in their own way38. When the kid is doing his homework, parents _____.A. must switch off the powerB. can do whatever they likeC. can stay aside watching TVD. should provide him with a good learning environment39. It can be inferred from the passage that _____.A. parents should take off his headphones when trying to have a talk with their childB. it will make no difference that a kid is wearing his earplugs while talking to his parentsC. parents shouldn't give in to their kid when he shows no sign of respectD. kids' purposely talking to their parents with iPod gives them a sense of power and control40. The main idea of the passage is _____.A. that respecting each other is more important than anything elseB. how parents can deal with their kids' behavior effectivelyC. that children should make choices and decisions on their ownD. how kids behave to ignore and disrespect their parentsD篇Growing up, I wanted to be just like my mom. She was kind. People always seemed to feel comfortable in her presence. For years, she was a volunteer in our community. I loved going to the local nursing home with her where she taught a ceramic class.On one summer day, Mama told me to get changed and meet her at the car.I had planned to spend the day at the lake with friends. Why did she have to ruin everything? I imagined the cool lake water. Irritated, I climbed into the car andslammed the door shut. We sat in silence. I was too upset to make conversation.“Tasha, would you like to know where we are going?” Mama asked calmly.“No,” I said.“We are going to volunteer at a children‟s shelter today. I have been there before and I think it would benefit you,” she explained.When we reached the shelter, Mama rang the doorbell. Moments later, we were greeted by a woman. She led us to the front room where all of the children were playing. I noticed a baby whose body was scarred with iron marks. I was told it was because she wouldn‟t stop crying. The majority of the children had noticeable physical scars. Others hid their emotional wounds.As I took in my surroundings, I felt a gentle tug on my shirt. I looked down to see a little girl looking up at me. “Hi. You want to play dolls with me?” she asked. I looked over at Mama for reinforcement. She smiled and nodded. I turned back and said, “Sure.” Her tiny hand reached up and held mine, as if to comfort me.My mom taught me a valuable lesson that summer. I returned to the shelter with her several times. During those visits, some of the children shared their troubled pasts with me and I learned to be grateful for what I had. Today as I strive to instill (逐渐灌输) these values in my own child, I reflect back to that experience. It was a time that I will never forget.41.The author admired her mom for ________.A．her quality of honesty B．her excellent teachingC．her kindness to others D．her positive attitude to life42.According to Paragraph 3, when she was asked to go out with her mom, the author was ________.A．excited B．angry C．surprised D．worried43. From the passage we learn most children in the shelter ________.A．were once treated badly B．weren‟t allowed to go outsideC．were often punished by staff D．all suffered from mental illness44. The underlined word “reinforcement”in the passage is closest in meaning to “________”.A．truth B．help C．comfort D．support45.What lesson did the author learn from her experience?A．To value what you take for granted. B．To play with children is fun.C．To love others is to love yourself. D．To do as what your parents do.III 用下列所给英语词语造句。

They have almost as much protein (蛋白质) as meat from a pig or cow and are low in fat. Eating insects is also very good for the environment since they need less land and water than larger animals.Marcel Dicke, who studies insects, explained in a talk how insects also produce more meat from the food they eat. For example, imagine a farmer feeds a cow 10 pounds of food. Those 10 pounds of food produce about 1 pound of m eat for people to eat. However, imagine the farmer gives a certain number of insects 10 pounds of food. Those 10 pounds of food produce 9 pounds of meat for people to eat!Eating more insects can also help people in poor areas. Many people can raise and sell insects, which can provide jobs and food.But insects will not replace (替代) animal meat very quickly. First, people in some countries would have to change how they think about eating insects. Many people in North America and Europe eat a lot of meat like beef and pork. But they do not traditionally eat insects. In fact, for many people in the west, eating insects sounds crazy! They believe insects are dirty and dangerous. Insects make them feel uncomfortable.Some people are trying to deal with this problem. For example, David George Gordon wrote a book named “The Eat-A-Bug Cookbook”, which tries to show people that insects can be delicious. Other insect experts travel around telling people about the benefits (好处) of eating insects. But they still have a lot of work to do.8. Eating insects _____.A. is not healthyB. makes people put on fatC. helps protect large animalsD. is environmentally friendly9. The example of Marcel Dicke is given to show _____.A. the high cost of food productionB. it’s quite easy for farmers to raise insectsC. raising insects is a good choice for farmersD. the different ways of feeding cows and insects10. The long way eating insects has to go mainly results from _____.A. their terrible tasteB. peo ple’s old beliefsC. family traditionsD. eating methods11. We can infer from David and other insect experts that _____.A. people can make a lot of money from insectsB. insects should be better protectedC. people should eat more insectsD. it’s dangerous to eat insectsDToday，we are told，children don’t spend enough time in the fresh air．Many of them are addicted to a screen either on a computer or a TV—they seem to be living in a virtual (虚拟的)world．They have lost touch with nature．But now 400 organizations in the UK，from playgroups to the National Health Service，are encouraging children to have some“wild time”．They want kids to swap at least 30 minutes of watching TV or playing computer games for time playing outside．Activities such as building dens, climbing trees, rummaging for conkers and playing hide and seek are just some of the things kids can do. Even if they live in a city，they can go on adventures in the garden or the park．Children often need a helping hand from mum and dad．They need to be shown what to do and where to go．Andy Simpson from National Health Service says，“We want parents to see what this magical wonder product does for their kids’ development，independence and creativity，by giving wild time a go”．So despite（尽管） the complicated world that young people grow up in now，it seems that going back to basics and experiencing“nature’s playground”is what modern children need．David Bond from Project Wild Thing says，“We need to make more space for wild time in children’s daily routine，freeing this generation of kids to have the sort of expe riences that many of us took for granted”．This might sound a bit old fashioned to you or maybe，like me，it’s made you think about sticking on your boots，getting outdoors and reliving your childhood. There’s no age limit on enjoying yourself!12. Children are encouraged to do the following activities exceptA．building dens B．climbing treesC．playing hide and seek D．watching TV13. What is the best title of the text?A．Wild time for children B．Benefits of wild timeC．More space for children D．Adventures of children14. According to Andy Simpson，we know that ___________A．wild time is hard to designB．wild time is beneficial for childrenC．parents know the importance of wild timeD．parents like keeping their children indoors15. The last paragraph suggests that ___________A．people like recalling the pastB．it is out of date to go outdoorsC．it is too late for adults to enjoy natureD．people at any age can enjoy wild timeII 英语知识运用（共两节，满分45分）第一节完形填空（共20小题：每小题1.5分，满分30分）阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的四个选项（A、B、C、D）中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

AMillions of words have been written about young people in the USA. There are reasons for this great interest in the ideas, feelings, and actions of youth.Today there are about seven million Americans in the colleges and universities. Young personsunder twenty-five make up nearly half of the American population. Many of these young people will be in power in the USA. Naturally their ideas are important to everyone in the country, and it is necessary for older people to understand what they think and feel.College students today have strong opinions about right and wrong. They are deeply interested in making a better life for all people, especially for those who have not been given a fair chance before now. They see much that is wrong in the lives of their parents. It is hard for them to see what is right and good in the older ways. As a result, there is often trouble in American families.26.

Some families will be able to return to their normal life quickly, but others will have to contend with the destruction of their homes, medical problems, and injury to family members. Children especially will need time to recover from the loss of a loved one or a pet or from the closing down of their school.Children often come to adults for information, comfort and help. Parents should try to remain calm, answer children’s questions honestly and remain understanding when they see changes in their children’s behavior.Children react(反应) differently to an earthquake depending on their ages, developmental levels and former experiences. Some will remain silent and not communicate with people, while others will have angry outbursts(爆发). Parents should keep an eye on each child’s reactions. Parents should spend time talking to their children, letting them know that it’s OK to ask questions and to share their worries.Although it may be hard to find time to have these talks, parents can use regular family meal times or bed times for them. They should answer questions shortly and honestly and be sure to ask their children for their opinions and ideas. Problems may come up more than once and parents should remain patient when you answer the questions again. After talking about the earthquake with young children, parents might read their favorite story or have a relaxing family activity to help them calm down. Parents should also tell children they are safe and should spend more time with them. They could play games outside or read together indoors. Most importantly, be sure to tell them you love them.31. What’s the passage mainly about?A. How to prepare before an earthquake happensB. What to do in an earthquakeC. How to face the loss of a loved one in an earthquakeD.

Children may need a longer time to recover after an earthquake.C. Children should turn to their classmates for help after an earthquake.D. Children react in the same way as adults do to an earthquake.CWe all enjoy the colors of autumn leaves. The changing fall leaves never fail to surprise us. Did you ever wonder how and why a fall leaf changes color? Where do the yellows and oranges come from? To answer those questions, we first have to understand what leaves are and what they do. Leaves are nature's food factories. Plants take water from the ground through their roots. They take a gas called carbon dioxide from the air. Plants use sunlight to turn water and carbon dioxide into oxygen and glucose(葡萄糖). Oxygen is a gas in the air that we need to breathe. Glucose is akind of sugar. Plants use glucose as food for energy and as a building block for growing. The way plants turn water and carbon dioxide into sugar is called photosynthesis(光合作用). A chemical called chlorophyll (叶绿素)helps make photosynthesis happen. Chlorophyll is what gives plants their green color.As summer ends and autumn comes, the days get shorter and shorter. This is how the trees "know" to begin getting ready for winter.During winter, there is not enough light or water for photosynthesis. The trees will rest, and live on the food they stored during summer. They begin to shut down their food-making factories. The green chlorophyll disappears from the leaves. As the bright green dies away, we begin to see yellow and orange colors. Small amounts of these colors have been in the leaves all along. We just can't see them in summer, because they are covered up by the green chlorophyll.The bright reds and purples we see in leaves are made mostly in the fall. In some trees, like maples, glucose is trapped in the leaves after photosynthesis stops. Sunlight and the cool nights of autumn cause the leaves to turn this glucose into a red color. The brown color of trees like oaks is made from wastes left in the leaves.36. The writer asked some questions in the beginning in order to____________.A. persuade readers to believe somethingB. offer something to think overC. get the readers excitedD. introduce the topic of the passage37. Which of the following is TRUE about photosynthesis?A. Oxygen and water are produced by plants.B. Glucose provides energy and food for plants to grow.C.

They studied the information on the post sign and decided which bus to take. About five minutes later the bus they wanted came along. They prepared to get on. Suddenly people rushed onto the bus and tried to push them out of the way. Someone shouted insulting words about the foreigners. The bus conductor came rushing down the stairs to see what all the trouble was about. The three foreign gentlemen looked puzzled and ashamed. No one had told them about the British custom of lining up for a bus so that the first person who arrived at a bus-stop is the first person to get on the bus. Learning the language of a country isn’t enough. If you want to ensure a pleasant visit, find out as much as possible about the manners and customs of your hosts.

A visitor to India would do well to remember that people there consider it impolite to use the left hand for passing food at table. The left hand should be used for washing yourself. Also in India, You might see a man apparently shaking his head at another and consider that he is disagreeing. But in many parts of India shaking one’s head means expressing agreement.

In that country you shake your head to express “yes” —a nod means “no”.In Europe it is quite usual to cross your legs when sitting, talking to someone, even at an important meeting. Doing this when meeting an important person in Thailand, however, could cause offence (冒犯). It is considered too informal an attitude for such an occasion. Also when in Thailand avoid touching the head of an adult —it’s just not done.Attitudes to women vary a lot around the world. In Japan, for example, it is quite usual for men to plan evening entertainments for themselves and leave their wives at home.Knowing about customs and attitudes is useful when you are traveling, but you also need to know the language used to express different degrees of formality (礼节).41.
