AHere are four famous books which are both entertaining and educational for school children.Animal Farm by George OrwellAnimal Farm is probably one of the most popular school reads in the world. George Orwell wrote it as a political symbol. It has inspired the minds of not only adults but also the younger ones who start the strong feeling of justice and freedom for all humanity in their hearts.A Long Walk to Water by Linda Sue ParkBased on a true story, this is definitely one of the must-read children’s books. It’s story of two people of the same country, but of different tribes and time, both finding themselves on this long, tiring and often dangerous walk of life.To Kill a Mockingbird by Harper LeeRegarded as a masterpiece of literature, it’s no wonder that it won the Pulitzer Prize. The plot and characters are based on the author’s observations of her family and neighbors, as well as on an event that occurred near her hometown in 1936 when she was 10 years old. The novel is famous for its warmth and humor.The Harry Potter series by J.k.RowlingThis is a series of stories showing the courage of a young boy, who is never afraid to speak his mind in the face of injustice and will always defend the helpless. In this story, a boy shows us the importance of believing in ourselves. It reminds us that the true power to defeat any enemy isn’t in others, but in each of us.1. Which of the following best suits people who want freedom?A. Animal Farm.B. A Long Walk to Water.C. To Kill a Mockingbird.D. The Harry Potter series.2. Which author wrote the book by observing his or her own life?A. J.k.Rowling.B. Linda Sue Park.C. George Orwell.D. Harper Le.3. What does the Harry Potter series mainly want to convey?A. Failure is the mother of success.B. Actions speak louder than words.C. A friend in need is a friend indeed.D. God helps those who help themselves.BBill Gates, the richest person in the world, banned his kids from having cell-phones until they were 14. He also forbids them at the dinner table and limits his youngest kid’s screen time before she goes to bed.Father to three children, Gates admits, “We often set a time after which there is no screen time and it helps them get to sleep at a reasonable hour. People are always looking at how cell-phones can be used in great way —homework and staying in touch with friends. We don’t have cell-phones at the table when having a meal. And we didn’t give our kids cell-phones until they were 14, but they complained other kids got them earlier.”Which phones Gates’ kids got isn’t clear, possibly not those designed by his long-time rival — Steven Jobs.However, Bill Gates is famous for his simple and direct approach. There may be ￡67 billions to his name, but there is nothing showy about the man. Wearing an ￡8 watch and saying he had a very nice curry（咖喱菜）last night, Bill Gates added, “I’m big on pretty mainstream American hamburgers —McDonald’s and Burger King.”As a child, Bill Gates grew up with his lawyer father and philanthropist （慈善家）mother in Seattle. He was once sent to see a psychologist because he spent so much time in reading a lone and didn’t go out. After dropping out of Harvest to found Microsoft, he transformed personal computing. And after setting up the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation in 2000 with his wife, he has given billions to fund worldwide aid. After quitting as Microsoft chairman in 2014, he dedicated himself to the foundation and has become the greatest philanthropist ever.4. What can we learn from Bill Gates’ words in Paragraph2?A. Banning cell-phones helps kids sleep better.B. Setting a sleep time for kids is unnecessary.C. Cell-phones help kids develop good relationships.D. Cell-phones can greatly help kids with their homework.5. What does the underlined word “rival” in Paragraph3 probably mean?A. Companion.B. Competitor.C. Cooperator.D. Supporter.6. What does the author think of Bill Gates’ life?A. Simple.B. Lonely.C. Boring.D. Exciting.7. Why was Bill Gates taken to see a psychologist as a child?A. He wanted to drop out of school.B. He gave billions to fund worldwide aid.C. He usually read books in the room alone.D. He spent too much time playing with cell-phones.CCan animals be artistic? Some experts think so. Painting and music are part of efforts to keep animals happyat the Smithsonian’s national Zoo. Zookeepers there believe that animals need enrichment just like people do.A sloth bear (长毛熊) called Francois is one of the National Zoo’s artists. He began his artistic career two years ago. Francois has a very unusual way to paint. He uses his breath to paint. His zookeeper, Stacey Tabellario, says that although the technique may look strange, it is actually a very natural behavior for sloth bears. They have got big lungs and they can exhale (呼出) a huge amount of air. The zookeepers fill one of those tubes full of paint and ask them to breathe through it. And they blow all of the paint onto the canvas (帆布), making these really cool paintings.Animal artists come in all shapes and sizes at the Zoo. They use many kinds of techniques to create their works of art. Apes use paintbrushes. Many use their paws or claws — much like a human painter would use his or her hands.Stacey Tabellario says Francois seems to enjoy expressing himself through his art. “When I set up the materials for painting activity, he comes and sits next to them and waits until we are ready to start painting. He does that every time. I also see where his eyes go. He does see the paints come out of the tube and land on the canvas.” But not every animal wants to paint.Music is another part of the arts enrichment program. Physically and mentally stimulating (有趣味的) activities are an important part of the daily care of the animals. Trainers have a lot of tools, from tablet computers to small toys.Kenton Kerns says the program helps the animals and the zookeepers in many ways. Every interaction between keepers and their animals creates some sort of connections. The one-of-a-kind works of art created by the animals are popular with zoo visitors. Many are sold at the zoo’s fundraising(募捐) events.8. What is the best title for the text?A. Art Works in the Zoo.B. Zoo Animals Show Artistic Side.C. Animals can Earn Money.D. Animals Enjoy Painting.9. What can we learn from the second paragraph?A. Francois is a two-year-old artist at the National Zoo.B. Francois’ way to paint is unusual for sloth bears.C. Francois can paint owing to its big lung.D. Francois paints with the help of his feet.10. According to Stacey Tabellario, Francois .A. is fond of paintingB. likes to stay with other animalsC. often shows the painting to the audienceD. wants to get attention from the zookeepers by painting.11. According to Kenon Kerns, the art program .A. enriches the keepers’ lifeB. makes the animals cleverC. intends to collect money for the zooD. deepens the relationship between animals and keepersDLooking out across the city and on top of the tall buildings before you are cows. Yes, you read that right. Farm animals are eating grass on high-rise urban farms on the top of high buildings in London. Elsewhere, off thecoast of mainland England, against the background of the extremely beautiful White Cliffs of Dover, a wonderful pot (吊舱) structure forms part of a floating city. This is how we will live 100 years from now — if a group of UK experts is to be believed.Temporary housing pods, underwater cities and 3D-printed houses will also help reduce the burden of overpopulation and inner city living-space shortages. Buildings with their own microclimates and cities built in the skies are also among the amazing achievements of future engineering predicted by the experts.But not only will tomorrow’s architects continue to advance towards the clouds, building higher and higher, as engineering advances allow, but we’ll also be headed deep below ground. The experts suggested future cities will feature incredible multi-level basement structures — already beginning to take effect in high-density (高密度的) areas like London — which will help ease a lack of urban space above ground.Meanwhile, the future will feature city-spanning (跨越城市的) bridges, according to the experts. Want to travel over to Mars quickly? No problem —the experts are predicting spaceports (宇航基地) will become commonplace, so future generations will be able to head over to their local station and hitch (搭顺风车) the next ride.The predictions were heavily focused on water-based architecture and contemporary problems such as overpopulation, global warming and rising sea levels. Using the future tech predictions, 2,000 people were then surveyed to see which of the suggestions they thought — and hoped — would become a reality by 2115. Topping the survey was super-deep basement buildings complete with hotels, restaurants, green space, swimming pools and gyms. The survey also found that one in three respondents (调查对象) considered floating sea cities — which could use solar and tidal energy — as a choice for future development.12. What is the function of the first paragraph?A. To present the topic.B. To make a comment.C. To make a comparison.D. To draw a conclusion.13. The second paragraph mainly talks about .A. different kinds of building structures.B. recent development of building structures.C. means to control the increase of population.D. future building structures helping to solve the lack of lying space.14. The underlined phrase “local station” refers to .A. air stationB. traveling agencyC. spaceportD. traveling destination15. What did people surveyed consider most practical?A. Floating sea cities.B. Deep underground buildings.C. City-spanning bridges.D. Slightly-deep basements.第二节(共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分)根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

They play basketball together, share meals and dance to hip-hop like no one‘s watching.The trainer was asked to work with the 13-year-old boy, who has Down syndrome (唐氏症), because his coworker who dealt with the boy was out of town last spring. Callari had never worked with someone with a disability before. He was anxious the first day he met Parker. But Parker’s big smile and cheery introduction immediately put him at ease. He reminded Callari of himself when he was a teenager. Like Parker, Callari has also faced his fair share of challenges over the years.As a high schooler, Callari described himself as being the weak kid. When it came to sports, he was always overlooked. His dream of playing baseball in college quickly faded away. When he went to college, Callari turned to a new sport. His younger brothertrained him to become a boxer. Callari participated in five matches. Out of four of those fights he was the underdog, and he won three times. "I know how it feels, "Callari said. "Society tells you that you can't do this, you can’t do that. "When it comes to Parker, Callari refuses to accept the word “can't”The friends meet twice a week to train. They bike, box, run and work on their core with push-ups. Parker has a short attention span, so it's callari's job to keep him focused. "If Parker can do it, if he's having fun, even with his frustration, then people will ask, ‘Why can't I do that?” Callari said. “That's the whole task right now.”Callari recalls parker's mom once thanking him for taking a "chance" on her son. Callari told her he never viewed it that way. Parker may be the student, but Callari says he's also the one who's learning24. Why was Callari asked to train Parker?A. They shared the same interests.B Parkers parents had faith in Callari.C. Callari took place of his absent colleague,D Callari was an expert in Down syndrome25. What can we learn about Callari when he was in high school?A. He was good at sports.B. He was out of condition.C. He was looked down upon by everyoneD. He was influenced deeply by his brother26. What attitude does Callari have to Parker?A. Grateful B Sympathetic. C. Cautious D. Critical27. What is the text mainly about?A. An inspiring story of a disabled boyB. A high schooler suffering lots of failure.C. The friendship between a disabled boy and his personal trainerD. Ways of developing friendship with the boy with Down syndromeCBeing mistreated at work can make people take out their negative emotions on loved ones at home. But a new study suggests that getting more exercise and sleep may help people better cope with them by leaving them at work, where they belong.Previous research shows that employees who are looked down on or insulted by colleagues are likely to express their frustrations and behave angrily toward people outside of work, says study co-author Shannon Taylor, a management professor at the University of Central Florida's College of Business.The new study backs up this idea, but offers a bit of good news as well: Employees who averaged more than 10, 500 steps a day or burned at least 2, 100 calories were less likely to mistreat their cohabitants than those who averaged fewer steps or burned fewer calories.The findings also revealed that when employees felt they had a bad night's sleep because of work issues, they were more likely to be grouchy at home. "When you're tired, you are either less able or less motivated to regulate yourself." says co-author Larissa Barber, a professor of psychology at Northern Illinois University.Physical activity seems to counterbalance poor sleep, Barber says, because it promotes healthy brain functions needed to properly regulate emotions and behaviors. "This study suggests that high amounts of exercise can be at least one way to improve the situations brought by sleep troubles that lead to negative behaviors at home, "she says.Barber acknowledges that finding time to work out and get a full night’s sleep can be difficult when work pressure is mounting, and that often, job stress can be directly related to sleep quality. But, she says, making the effort to burn some extra calories and blow off some steam can be worth it. It's not only good for you, says Taylor, but it can benefit the people live with.28. What does the underlined word "they" in Paragraph 1 refer to?A. Loved people at home B Negative emotions.C. Different work pressures. D More exercise and sleep29. Who will most probably behave angrily to family members?A. A person who is easy to get tired.B. A person who often goes to the gym to work outC. A person who is always treated badly by coworkers.D A person who often argues with colleagues30. The underlined word "counterbalance" in Paragraph 5 is doesn’t in meaning toA. make use ofB. take control ofC. keep up with D make up for31. What can we learn from the text?A. Work pressure makes no difference in sleep quality.B. How to burn more calories has become a major issue for workers.C Enough exercise can replace good sleep in dealing with negative behaviors.D. The amount of calories employees burn affects the frequency of losing temper.DGoogle, one of the world's outstanding tech companies, was attacked. It wasn’t its search engine that was attacked or its advertising platform or even its social network, Google+. Instead, it was a building.Two web security experts hacked (侵入) into its Wharf 7 office in Sydney, Australia through Googles building management system (BMS). One of them, Billy Rios, says, My colleague and I have a lot of experience in web security, but it is not something that people couldn't learn. Once you understand how the system works，it is very simple.”They found the system on Shodan, a search engine that lists devices connected to the Internet, and then ran it through their own software to identify who owned the building. In the case of the Google hacking, the researchers had no immoral purpose and just informed Google about what they found.According to Mr. Rios, who runs security company Whitescope, there are 50,000 buildings currently connected to the Internet, including research institutes, churches and hospitals, and 2, 000 of those are online with no password protection. Martyn Thomas, a professor of IT at Gresham College in the UK, says, "It is beyond doubt that attempts to attack building management systems are happening all thetime.”Making a building smart generally means connecting the systems that control heating, lighting and security to the Internet and the wider corporate network. There was a strong reason for doing this, said Andrew Kelly, principal security consultant at defence company Qinetiq.Energy savings are the biggest factor in connecting building management systems to the corporate network, he says. "It gives those who run the building better control and offers between 20% to 50% in energy savings, "he adds.But it also makes them less secure. And if any of these feels like a Hollywood film, think again.32. How did Billy Rios and his colleague hack Googles building?A. They invented a search engine and connected it to Googles building.B. They worked for Google and mastered how the building worked.C. They used Google's BMS to find out the owner of the building.D. They connected their own software to the building to run Google.33. In the case of the Google hacking, the researchers had the intention ofA analyzing some immoral problemsB. explaining the reasons for energy savingsC. entering Google's building to save more energyD. telling Google about the Wharf 7 office's hidden danger34.

It is said in a study that sleeping more at weekends can increase the risk of heart disease. Since most of us change our sleep schedule depending on whether it's a work or non-work day* it's an interesting question. Is the lie-in really so dangerous? Researchers say that changing sleep patterns causes social jet lag. Is that even a thing?Changing our sleeping hours causes the effect of crossing a time zone—it makes us sleepy during the day. People who changed their sleep patterns were also more likely to gain weight during the study and more suited to going to bed and waking late because of the change of their biological clock.

Today widespread social pressure to immediately go to college with increasingly high expectations in a fast﹣moving world often causes students to completely overlook the possibility of taking a gap year． After all, if everyone you know is going to college in the fall, it seems silly to stay back a year, doesn’t it? And after going to school for 12 years, it doesn’t feel natural to spend a year doing something that isn’t academic．But while this may be true, it’s not a good enough reason to condemn gap years．There’s always a constant fear of falling behind everyone else on “the race to the finish line,” whether that be toward graduate school, medical school or successful career． But despite common misconceptions, a gap year does not hinder the success of academic pursuits﹣in fact, it probably enhances it．Studies from the United States and Australia show that students who take a gap year are generally better prepared for and perform better in college than those who do not． Rather than pulling students back, a gap year pushes them ahead by preparing them for independence, new responsibilities and environmental changes﹣all things that first﹣year students often struggle with the most． Gap year experiences can lessen the blow when it comes to adjusting to college and being thrown into a brand new environment, making it easier to focus on academics and activities rather than adaptation．．If you’re not convinced of the inherent value in taking a year off to explore interests, then consider its financial impact on future academic choices． According to the National Center for Education Statistics, nearly 80 percent of college students end up changing their majorsat least once．This isn’t surprising, considering the basic compulsory high school curriculum leaves students with a poor understanding of themselves listing one major on their college applications, but switching to another after taking college classes．It’s not necessarily a bad thing, but depending on the school, it can be costly to make up credits after switching too late in the game． At Boston College, for example, you would have to complete an extra year were you to switch to the nursing school from another department． Taking a gap year to figure things out initially can help prevent stress and save money later on．（1）One of the reasons for high﹣school graduates not taking a gap year is that________．A.they think it academically misleading．B.they have a lot of fun to expect in college．C.it feels strange to do differently from others．D.it seems worthless to take off﹣campus courses．（2）Studies from the US and Australia imply that taking a gap year helps________．A.keep students from being unrealistic．B.lower risks in choosing careers．C.ease freshmen’s financial burdens．D.relieve freshmen of pressures．（3）A gap year may save money for students by helping them________．A.avoid academic failures．B.decide on the right major．C.switch to another college．D.establish long﹣term goals．（4）The most suitable title for this text would be________．A.The Gap Year Comes Back．B.The ABCs of the Gap Year．C.In Favor of the Gap Year．D.The Gap Year： A Dilemma．【答案】CDBC【考点】阅读理解综合【解析】文章大意：本文主要讲了在学生中学毕业后的间隔年的作用，以及其对于大学生发展的好处．【解答】（1） C．细节理解题．根据文章第一段第一句话后面一句的“After all， if everyone you know is going to college in the fall， it seems silly to stay back a year，doesn’t it？”可知这句话是说如果大家秋天都上大学去了，你要是晚了一年看起来有点傻．这个句子等同于C选项中的feel strange to do differently from others，因此选C．（2） D．推理判断题．根据题目中的study from the Australia and US可以定位到第三段第一句话 Studies from10 the United States and Australia show that students who take a gap year are generally better preparedfor and perform better in college than those who do not．．这句话明确说了有间隔年的学生比没有的要好，好在准备和表现上．所以 A：unrealistic和B：choosing career不对．第二句在表现好的更细致地方面进行了描述：preparing them for independence独立性， new responsibilities责任感and environmental changes环境变化．紧随的破折号后总结说了这是 first﹣year students一年级学生 often struggle with the most常常有苦恼的．说明最受益的是大学一年级学生，而整段都没提过financial burdens，所以C不对．而D中的pressure是对前面内容的概括性描述，因此答案是D．（3） B．推理判断题．根据最后一段第一句提到了 consider its financial impact on future academic choices． Financial 对应题干中的save money，而academic choices学术选择可以排除 A和D．根据最后一段第三句…students…listing one major on their college applications， but switching to anotherafter taking college classes．所以第一句中的academic choices指的就是转专业的事儿，因此选B．（4） C．标题确定题．第二段第一句话But while this may be true，it’s not a good enough reason to condemn gapyears．就用but句说明了全文就是想说间隔年你值得拥有．而选项中只有 C选项in favor of是持正面积极态度的，因此选 C．3. Bobby Qualls was shopping when he received a text message: Fire on Beechmont, one ﹣story house, child trapped inside．“I was picking out gifts for the family our engine house adopted for Christmas, ” remembers Qualls, who has been fighting fires in Memphis for 24 years．“I had this sinking feeling as I got in my car and headed over．”The last time Qualls had been on Beechmont Street was to install smoke detectors （感应器） at the Bateman﹣Tubbs home．He’d been on a secret task to see if they needed extra help during the holidays． There he discovered that the four Bateman﹣Tubbs children were sleeping on bare mattresses （床垫）, and he found two of the boys playing outside in 30﹣ degree weather with no shoes or coats．Qualls learned that Leonard Tubbs was doing his best to make ends meet laying floors while Kimberly Bateman stayed home with the kids．“When Bobby told me his team wanted to be Secret Santas and buy my kids toys, at first I thought we didn’t need any help,” Bateman recalls．“It really touched me． I told him what the kids really needed was warm clothes．”That’s exactly what Qualls was shopping for on December 9, 2010: winter jackets for Christopher, seven; JoJo, four; Madison, one; and two﹣month﹣old Charles． While driving over to Beechmont Street, he dialed Bateman’s cell phone． She answered on the first ring, screaming, “The house is on fire ﹣﹣﹣JoJo’s trapped inside!”By the time Qualls reached the house, the family had gotten out, but their home was severely damaged． His coworkers had found JoJo hiding under a pile of clothes in a back bedroom． He had stopped breathing and had been given CPR and rushed to the hospital． Qualls learned that JoJo was now on life support and might not make it through the night． He rushed to the hospital with Lt． Mark Eskew, who placed a stuffed teddy bear in a firefighter’s suit on JoJo’s bed．“I just kept praying my little boy would open his eyes,” Bateman recalls．“There was nothing else I could do． They were pumping black and thick liquid out of his lungs and stomach for days．”After a few days, though, JoJo regained consciousness, and the tubes were taken out of his throat． While he began to slowly recover, the local newspaper and TV stations got hold of the story, and the Secret Santa Plan of Qualls and his fellow firefighters snowballed． Before long, the fire station was overflowing with boxes oftoys, food, towels, and clothes． People called, wanting to donate furniture and appliances too． By December 23, Bateman and Tubbs had moved their kids into a new rental home．By Christmas Eve, JoJo was ready to leave the hospital, and the firefighters were ready to deliver the family their very own Christmas miracle．“These guys aren’t just firefighters,” says Bateman,“they’re our guardian angels． If they hadn’t installed a smoke detector that first day they came to our house,we wouldn’t have known when the fire started． Then they went the extra ten miles to give us a Christmas．”（1）What did Quails do after he arrived at the Beechmont house？________A.He tried to persuade the four children to play inside．B.He hurried to check the smoke detectors．C.He dashed to rescue the kid trapped in the house．D.He rushed to the hospital with his colleague．（2）Who rushed to save JoJo out of the burning house？________A.Bobby Qualls．B.Leonard Tubbs．C.Kimberly Bateman．D.Firefighters．（3）We can learn from the story that________．A.JoJo is a naughty child．B.smoke detectors are very useful．C.Tubbs’ home is filled with gifts．D.the fire was caused by the bare mattress．（4）The author wrote this story mainly to________．A.encourage people to install smoke detectors．B.advise people to take good care of their children．C.ask people to give gifts to the firemen．D.praise the firemen for their good deeds．【答案】CDBD【考点】阅读理解综合【解析】本文章主要讲述了Bobby Qualls 以及其他消防队员奋力扑火救人的故事．【解答】（1）C．细节题．根据文章内容，Bobby Qualls was shopping when he received a text message： Fire on Beechmont， one﹣story house，child trapped inside…I had this sinking feeling as I got in my car and headed over．"由此可知，看到有火情的消息后，BobbyQualls 立刻开车前往救援．结合选项，故选C（2）D．细节题．由第一段可知 Bobby Qualls 是一个消防员．因此由第六段第二句“His co﹣workers had found JoJo hiding under a pile of clothes in a back bedroom．” 可知拯救 JoJo 的也是消防员，结合选项，故选D．（3）B．推断题．由最后一段第二句“If they hadn’t installed a smoke detector that first day they came to our house，we wouldn’t have kn own when the fire started．” 可知正是smoke detector 发现了火灾，因此孩子才在第一时间得救，因此烟雾探测器非常的有用．结合选项，故选B．（4）D．推断题．由最后一段第一句“‘These guys aren’t just firefighters，’ says Bateman，‘they’re our guardian angels．’” 可知作者写这篇文章是为了表现消防员的英勇事迹并称赞他们，结合选项，故选D．4. Have you been told you have penicillin allergy（过敏）? Did your parents tell you that you had a reaction as an infant or child, so you should never take it again? Has it been so long since you had a reaction to penicillin that you don’t remember what happened? If youfit any of these descriptions or are just not sure if you have penicillin allergy, there’s good news for you: Chances are that you probably don’t have．Between 10 to 20 percent of Americans believe they have a penicillin allergy, but a recent study at Mayo Clinic found that only 10 percent of those people are truly penicillin allergic． In other words, 9out of 10people who think they have penicillin allergy are avoiding it for no reason． Even in people with documented allergy to penicillin, only about 20 percent are still allergic 10 years after their initial allergic reaction．It’s not necessarily a permanent condition．Why is this important? Aren’t there many other antibiotics you can use if you have penicillin allergy? Penicillin has been around since 1928． Penicillin and its related medicines include amoxicillin, methicillin and amoxicillin﹣clavulnate． These medicinesare highly effective treatments for many bacterial infections, such as strep throat and ear infection． Of course, there are alternative antibiotics, but these are often much more expensive and carry a higher risk of side effects because these alternative antibiotics are broad﹣spectrum, meaning they fight many types of bacteria, both good and bad． That can lead to development of drug﹣resistant bacteria, or deadly “superbugs”． This increases the risk for all of us in the future of not having an effective antibiotic to treat our infection．How do you find out if you have penicillin allergy? Board﹣certified allergists can test you． First, the allergist will get a history from you about your possible allergy． Typical questions include: How long ago did you have the reaction? What type of reaction occurred, and how soon after you took the penicillin did the reaction appear? The testing is done on the forearm by pricking the skin with a needle． If the results are negative andthere is no reaction, penicillin will be injected in the skin． These tests are not painful, and results are available in 15minutes． A positive reaction may lead to some swelling and itching where the test was placed, which usually goes away within an hour．In very rare cases, an allergic reaction occurs． This can includehives, swelling, wheezing and/or difficulty breathing． The allergist is trained to treat this rare condition quickly if it happens． If all skin testing is negative, you may be given an oral dose of penicillin in the office．The oral drug challenge is used to ________ that you don’t have penicillin allergy． Usually, you’ll be observed in the office for 30minutes to make sure you have no problems．If you find out you don’t have a penicillin allergy,notify your physicians that it’s now safefor you to take penicillin．They can take “penicillin allergy” off your chart for go od!（1）What are the questions in the first paragraph used for？________A.To ask for other’s help．B.To introduce the topic of the passage．C.To share the writer’s opinion．D.To summarize the main idea．（2）Which is NOT the drawback of the alternative antibiotics？________A.They can treat many bacterial infections．B.They cost much more than penicillin．C.They can result in drug﹣resistant bacteria．D.They also fight good bacteria when used．（3）If you have a negative reaction in skin tests，________．A.you’ll be given an oral dose of penicillin．B.your skin is sure to swell and itch．C.it is not safe for you to take penicillin．D.you can’t leave the office within an hour．（4）Which can replace the underlined word “verify” in Paragraph 5？________A.swear．B.admit．C.examine．D.confirm．【答案】BACD【考点】阅读理解综合完形综合【解析】本文是一篇科教类阅读，你有没有被告知你有青霉素过敏？你的父母告诉你，你有在是婴儿或孩子的时候产生过反应，所以你不应该再次服用吗？本文以此展开，主要讲述了青霉素的使用．【解答】（1）B．推理判断题．根据问句If you fit any of these descriptions or are just not sure if you have penicillin allergy，there’s good news for you：Chances are，you probably don’t have．可以推测出，第一段的问题是为了引入主题．故选B．（2）A．细节理解题．根据These medicines are highly effective treatments for many bacterial infections，such as strep throat and ear infection．可知，他们可以治疗很多细菌感染是他们的优点，而不是缺点．故选A．（3）C．细节理解题．根据If the results are negative and there is no reaction，penicillin will be injected in the skin．These tests are not painful，and results are available in15minutes．A positive reaction may lead to some swelling and itching where the test was placed，which usually goes away within an hour．可知，如果你有一个积极的反应在皮肤的测试中，青霉素对你来说是不安全的．故选C（4）D．词义猜测题．根据上下文内容可知，The oral drug challenge is used to verifythat you don’t have penicillin allergy．句意为口服药物挑战用于验证您没有青霉素过敏．故verify意为验证，故选D．第二节（满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项．选项中有两项为多余选项．Each year on Christmas， families around America gather around， exchange gifts and celebrate the birth

AWhen you’re new to a school or campus, your smartphone will be your new best friend. Here are four apps to help you get started in the US.1. Social media: You probably already know these apps, and you might be using similar ones in your home country in your own language, like WeChat or QQ. These are the big ones in the US: Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and Snapchat.Talk with friends. Get news. Find a bed to buy or find roommates. Get assignments from the class you missed. These social media apps will be the core (核心) of your existence. You’ll use Facebook to communicate with various groups, like friends, but also social clubs that share a common interest, like the soccer club, university social groups, or people who share the same field of study.Apps like Snapchat are more for close friends. Instagram focuses on photos you share. Twitter limits you to 280 characters per “tweet,” or post, so you learn to be brief, to the point and clever. Tweets are a great way to tell your friends and family what you’re up to.2. Ride-sharing: Need a ride? Type your destination into Uber or Lyft to find out how close - or far - the nearest ride is to your location and how much it will cost to get where you want to go. The app is linked to your bank account, so you don’t have t o worry about carrying cash.3. Eating: Don’t want to get off the couch or move away from your desk? Order from almost any nearby restaurant, pay online, and wait for a delivery driver to bring it to your front door through Grubhub, UberEats or DoorDash. This is great for students who don’t have a car or the time to go fetch food.4. Texting/Phoning Home: College students like to communicate in groups, which makes messaging apps common on campus smartphones. And cellphone carriers may charge high fees for international calls. Using apps like WhatsApp, GroupMe or Slack for calls or texts makes it cost-effective on a student’s tight budget.1. Which one is true according to the passage?A. Wechat is a popular App in US.B. People are more likely to talk with those they are not familiar with on Snapchat.C. Twitter users can’t write 280 words.D. people who have the same hobby can communicate with each other on Facebook.2. You can order meal from a nearby restaurant through ________.A. UberEats and GroupMeB. Grubhub and UberC. DoorDash and GrubhubD. DoorDash and Snapchat3. If you want to save money, you’d better ________.A. link your Apps to your bank accountB. use WhatsApp rather than make international calls by cell phoneC. order meal by UberEatsD. join in a soccer club on FacebookBEvery year on my birthday, from the time I turned 12, a bunch of white gardenia（栀子花）was delivered to my home. No card or note came with it. Calls to the florist were always in vain—it was a cash purchase.But I never stopped imagining who the anonymous giver might be. Some of my happiest moments were spent daydreaming about someone wonderful and exciting but too shy to make known his or her identity.My mother contributed to these imaginings. She’d ask me if there is someone for whom I had done a special kindness who might be showing appreciation. Perhaps the neighbour I’d help when she was unloading a car full of groceries. Or maybe it was the old man across the street whose mail I retrieved during the winter so he wouldn’t have to venture down his icy steps. As a teenager, though, I had more fun speculating that it might be a boy. I had a crush on one who had noticed me.When I was 17, a boy broke my heart. The night he called for the last time, I cried myself to sleep. When I awoke in the morning, there was a message written on my mirror in red lipstick: “Heartily know, when half-gods go, the gods arrive.” I thought about that quotation from Emerson for a long time, and until my heart healed, I left it where my mother had written it. When I finally went to get the glass cleaner, my mother knew everything was all right again.I don’t remember ever slamming my door in anger at her and shouting, “You just don’t understand!” because she did understand.One month before my high-school graduation, my father died of a heart attack. I became completely uninterested in my upcoming graduation，even the prom（毕业舞会）I had longed for.The day before the prom, I found an amazingly beautiful dress on the living-room sofa. It was presented to me—beautifully, artistically, and lovingly. I didn’t care if I had a new dress or not. But my mother did.She wanted her child to feel loved and lovable, imbued with a sense that there was magic in the world and beauty even in the face of difficulty, — like the gardenia—lovely, strong and perfect—with an aura of magic and perhaps a bit of mystery.My mother died ten days after I was married. I was 22. That was the year the gardenia stopped coming.4. Who would be the anonymous giver of the white gardenia in the writer’s imagination?A. a boy whom she lost her heart toB. her motherC. her fatherD. someone she had helped5. What did the mother do after she found the author was heartbroken?A. She talked with author immediately face to face and give her some advice.B. She composed a poem by herself for the author and wrote it on her mirror.C. She slammed the door in anger and shouted at the author for her misbehavior.D. She comforted the author by quoting a line of a poem and waited silently.6. According to the passage, which word can describe the author?A. independentB. easy-goingC. kind-heartedD. optimistic7. Which one might be the best title of the passage?A. Mother’s Love is greatB. Be Grateful to Those Who Care About YouC. The White GardeniaD. An Unforgettable Experience of MineCAs schools throughout the United Kingdom contend with a fresh sheet of snow, one headteacher is taking a strict stand: students are banned from touching snow.Headteacher Ges Smith from the Jo Richardson Community School in Dagenham, East London, claimed his rule stems from “health and safety” concerns. Smith tried to defend the ban during an appearance on Good Morning Britain on Tuesday, to no avail.“Oh come on sir. It is just a bit of snow—let us throw a snowball,” said host Susanna Reid, according to The Independent.“If it was that simple, I would let them throw snowballs all day long,” he replied. Smith, who said the ban was a “duty of care issue,” stood resolutely by his position.“The problem is, it only takes one student, one piece of grit, one stone in a snowball in an eye with an injury and we change our view," he explained.Smith also said that the ban on snow prevents schoolchildren from getting their clothes wet, which would make them "unfit for school."“The rules are don’t touch the snow," he continued. "If you don’t touch the snow you’re not going to throw it.”Fellow show host Piers Morgan was confused by the headteacher’s decision and questioned whether the rule would leave children “unprepared for normal life.”Smith, in turn, said he was protecting his school from a potential lawsuit, The Telegraph reported.Smith has instead been labeled a “snowflake” by some on social media.“Head teacher Ges Smith needs to get a life!! I’ll bet he played as a kid and is still here. Just a snowflake—if you’ll pardon the pun,” tweeted Neil Plucknett.Others, however, said they understood that Smith’s rule protects the 1,500-student school from a potential lawsuit regarding a snow-related injury.“I must be getting old, I agree with Ges Smith! With 1500 pupils how c an he ensure kids are properly attired etc, and that parents won’t kick off & cause a huge issue if their kid gets hurt! Perhaps, in this case, certain parents are the problem?” another person tweeted.8. Mr Ges Smith banned his students from touching snow becauseA. students may catch a coldB. He would be punished by the British Education DepartmentC. Student’s playing snowball may cause potential dangerD. Snow has bad effect on students’ learning activities9. What’s Pier Morgan’s attitude towards the snow-ban?A. ObjectiveB. doubtfulC. indifferentD. positive10. We can infer from the passage that _________.A. Smith believed that his snow ban would do good to both the students and the schoolB. parents accused Mr Smith of forbidding their kids to touch the snowC. most media showed their understanding and approval of the snow-banD. it is impossible for Mr Smith to prevent 1,500students from touching the snow11. Where can we find this passage?A. In an autobiography.B. In an educational report.C. In a collection of short stories.D. In a newspaper.DDo you think you would work out more if you were offered money to do so? Science has shown that money can give people motivation to work out, but perhaps not in the way that you think.According to a study published in the Annals of Internal Medicine journal, the best strategy isn’t offering money; it’s giving someone money, then threatening to take it away.Researchers gave 281 people the goal of walking 7,000 steps every day over 13 weeks.To motivate the people who took part to reach the goal, researchers divided them into three groups. People in the first group received $1.40 (9 yuan) each day as long as they finished 7,000 steps; the second group was only able to collect the $1.40 if they had reached 7,000 steps the day before; and the third group was given $42 at the beginning of each month, and $1.40 was taken away every time someone failed to meet the goal.The third group met their daily fitness goals 50 percent more often than the other two groups, showing that people were most motivated to walk by the fear of losing money.“People are more motivated by losses than gains, and they like immediate gratification ,” study author Dr Mitesh Patel, an assistant professor at the Unive rsity of Pennsylvania in the US, told CNN. “They want to be rewarded today, not next year or far into the future.”Our brains tend to avoid wanting to lose things more than they try to get the benefits from gaining them, Patel explained. “It makes people think like the money is theirs to lose from day one.”In addition, in most programs, many participants will drop out quickly and only the motivated will stay involved, Patel said.“In ours, we were pleasantly surprised that 96 percent stayed,” he a dded.The study provides evidence that what matters is not only the money incentives (奖励), but also how you think about them. This is important to how effective they are. The evidence could have a big effect on health promotion programs in the future, according to the study.“Incentives themselves are not all you need,” Stephanie Pronk, a health and wellness consultant (顾问) with the Aon plc corporation, told The Wall Street Journal. “It’s really important to change up the incentive design and keep peo ple on their toes.”12. According to the passage, people would be highly motivated when ________.A. they are offered money immediatelyB. they are highly praised for their personal capabilitiesC. they are offered money and then threatened to take it awayD. they are offered a large sum of money in small amount each day.13. What does the underlined word “gratification” in Paragraph 6 probably mean?A. contentmentB. motivationC. investmentD. promotion14. What can we infer from Stephannie Pronk’s words?A. Incentives are of little importance in the process of getting fit.B. Incentives and ways in which they are given are keys to fitness programs.C. People should keep fit actively instead of being motivated by incentives.D. There are many ways to get people to feel motivated to work out more.15. What is the main idea of this article?A. Fitness is more important than the money incentivesB. People can achieve fitness by using their money wiselyC. Money motivates fitness in a special wayD. Motivation is important in exercises第二节(共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分)根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

Stephen Napier's call-up came at the beginning of February and he was pleased to find that he would be going into the Royal Air Force (RAF).His father was not so pleased and made his feelings known as he and Stephen were on their daily walk. It was the first step in his plans for Stephen to take over the estate（地产）when the time came, and although Stephen was well aware of this, he could think of no reason not to accompany him.“Thought you’d forgotten that nonsense. Still, I dare say I could pull a few strings to get you to the Army...”“No, Father! I have told you I want to learn to fly. What chance would I have to do that in the Army? I'd be better off in the Navy——at least they've got the Fleet Air Arm. But I have been put in the RAF and that's where I want to be, so let’s leave it at that.” His face went red. Sent to his father's school and then to Cambridge, much to his satisfaction, he had never had to defend his own desires and his father was a hard man to oppose.The father glared at Stephen, “No, I won't leave it at that. I want to know what other ridiculous ideas are in your head. For a start, what’s all this about America?”“America?”“Yes. All those books I saw in your room the other day. Brochures about emigration （移民）.”The big, silvered head lowered, like that of a bull about to charge．“Don’t trouble to deny it. ”“I won’t, Father. Some men at Cambridge have been talking about it. They want people like us here, mathematicians and scientists, for all kinds of research——the sort of research I could do．It would be a worthwhile life for me.”The father responded exactly as his son had known he would. You've got a worthwhile life here！You’ve got an estate to run！”“No, Father. You’ve got an estate to run. I never asked for it. Why not ask Baden to do this stuff? He perhaps can make a good job of it, but I... ”“If he were here, I might think about this silly idea of yours——only think about it, mind you but...”41. If Father wanted Stephen to take over the estate, the first thing he did would_______．A .take a walk with Stephen as usual B. wait till his son graduated from CambridgeC. persuade Stephen not to go into RAFD. send Stephen to the Army instead of RAF42. Which statement is NOT true according to the passage?A. Stephen preferred to go into the Navy rather than the Army.B. Stephen also received his call-up papers as Roy.C. The father didn't like Stephen's idea of going to America.D. Stephen was eventually forced to stay to run the estate．43. After reading this passage, we can infer that_______．A. Stephen had never had to defend his desires beforeB. Baden might be one of Stephen's family membersC. Stephen wanted to fly in RAF and become a pilot in AmericaD. if somebody took over the estate, Stephen could realize his dream44. What do we learn from the underlined sentence?A. It looked as if the father was angry when mentioning the brochures.B. The father was very angry and wanted to beat his son Stephen．C. Stephen was annoyed when his father referred to the brochures.D. A big red bull was about to charge at Stephen.45. Which would be the best title for this passage?A. RAF——a better choice than the ArmyB. A talk between Father and SonC. The dreams of a Cambridge studentD. Conflict between Father and SonBDo you think it is ever a good idea for a teenager to have a credit card?My kids watch closely as I swipe the card through the register. They’ve seen me do it hundreds, thousands of times. Cool. They are itching to swipe it through the machine themselves. When we walk out of the store with our groceries or pet food, or whatever, it’s almost as though money has not changed hands, painless, easy. So it shouldn’t be shocking to discover that teenagers are becoming card carryingconsumers in their own right. The question is, should they?While some argue it’s best to teach kids how to use a credit card while still living under the family roof, not everyone agrees. Dave Ramsey, financial expert says getting a credit card for your teenager is a ctually, “an excellent way to teach him or her to be financially irresponsible. ”Now parents are required to co-sign on credit cards for children under 21. “If their name is on the credit card, then the parent may say, ‘Hey, my name is on this. Don’t get me into trouble,” says Mary Beth Pinto, a marketing professor. “When parents were the co-obligors（共同借贷人），the children caused less debt. If the parents are the co-obligors, the tendency is that the parents were explaining how to use the cards.” Still, Pinto believes parents should start the process much earlier. “Yes, there has to be tea ching going on and it has to start when they’re younger. You’re not going to get rid of credit cards. They are here to stay. You have to have them. You can’t fight progress,” Pinto said.Ramsey, however, disagrees. “Throwing teens into a pool of （credit）sharks is a sure way to guarantee a life-time of heartache,” he said. “You can make online purchases and rent a car with a credit card. Of course, you must have money in your bank account before you can make a purchase with a credit card. But paying for things with money is what you are supposed to do. ”46. The author mentioned her experience in Para 2 mainly to_______.A. prove the convenience of using credit cardsB. tell what impression credit cards leave on kidsC. give advice on using credit cards wiselyD. explain the pleasure credit cards bring to customers47. The underlined word in Para 2 can be replaced by _______.A. eagerB. afraidC. embarrassedD. thankful48. What’s Ramsey’s attitude towards teens’ using credit cards?A. He feels it is worth a tryB. He is very supportiveC. He is strongly against itD. He considers it as a pleasant experience49. Pinto will most likely agree that _______．A. parents should let teens own their credit cards earlierB. you shouldn’t be in control of credit cardsC. it is never good for anyone to get a credit cardD. learning to use credit cards is practicalCIdeas about polite behavior are different from one culture to another. Some societies, such as America and Australia, for example, are mobile and very open. People here change jobs and move houses quite often. As a result, they have a lot of relationships that often last only a short time, and they need to get to know people quickly. So it’s normal to have friendly conversations with people that they have just met, and you can talk about things that other cultures would regard as personal.On the other hand, there are more crowded and less mobile societies wherelong–term relationships are more important. A Malaysian or Mexican business person, for example, will want to get to know you very well before he or she feels happy to start business. But when you do get to know each other, the relationship becomes much deeper than it would in a mobile society.To Americans, both Europeans and Asians seem cool and formal at first. On the other hand, as a passenger from a less mobile society puts it, it’s no fun spending several hours next to a stranger who wants to tell you all about his or her life and asks you all sorts of questions that you don’t want to answer.Cross-cultural differences aren’t just a problem for travelers, but also for the flights that carry them. All flights want to provide the best service, but ideas about good service are different from place to place. This can be seen most clearly in the way that problems are dealt with.Some societies have “universalist” cultures. These societies strongly respect rules, and they treat every person and situation in basically the same way. “Particularist” societies, on the other hand, also have rules, but they are less important than the society’s unwritten ideas about what is right or wrong for a particular situation or a particular person. So the normal rules are changed to fit the needs of the situation or the importance of the person.This difference can cause problems. A traveler from a particularist society, India, is checking in for a flight in Germany, a country which has a universalist culture. The Indian traveler has too much luggage, but he explains that he has been away from home for a long time and the suitcases are full of presents for his family. He expects that the check–in official will understand his problem and will change the rules for him. The check–in official explains that if he was allowed to have too much luggage, it wouldn’t be fair to the other passengers. But the traveler thinks this is unfair, because the other passengers don’t have his problem.50. Often moving from one place to another makes people like Americans and Australians_______.A. like traveling betterB. easy to communicate withC. difficult to make real friendsD. have a long–term relationship with their neighbors51. People like Malaysians prefer to associate with those _______.A. who will tell them everything of their ownB. who want to do business with themC. they know quite wellD. who are good at talking52. A person from a less mobile society will feel it _______ when a stranger keepstalking to him or her.A. boringB. friendlyC. normalD. rough53. Which of the following is true about “particularist societies”?A. There is no rule for people to obey.B. People obey the society’s rules completely.C. No one obeys the society’s rules t hough they have.D. The society’s rules can be changed with different persons or situations.54. The writer of the passage thinks that the Indian and the German have differentideas about rules because of different _______.A. interestsB. habits and customsC. culturesD. ways of lifeDToday, there’s hardly an aspect of our life that isn’t being upended by the tons of information available on the hundreds of millions of sites crowding the Internet, not to mention its ability to keep us in constant touch with each other via electronic mail. “If the automobile and aerospace technology had exploded at the same pace as computer and information technology,” says Microsoft, “a new car would cost about $ 2 and go 600 miles on a small quantity of gas. And you could buy a Boeing 747 for the cost of a pizza.”Probably the biggest payoff, however, is the billions of dollars the Internet is saving companies in producing goods and serving for the needs of their customers. Nothing like it has been seen since the beginning of the Industrial Revolution, when power-driven machines began producing more in a day than men could turn out in nearly a year. “We view the growth of the Internet and e-commerce as a global trend,” says Merrill Lynch, “along the lines of printing press, the telephone, the computer, and electricity.”You would be hard pressed to name something that isn’t available on the Internet. Consider: books, health care, movie tickets, construction materials, baby clothes, stocks, cattle feed, music, electronics, antiques, tools, real estate, toys, autographs of famous people, wine and airline tickets. And even after you’ve moved on to your final resting place, there’s no reason those you love can’t keep in touch.A company called F offers a place for you to store “afterlife e-mails” you can send to Heaven with the help of a “guardian angel”.Kids today are so computer literate that it in fact ensures the United States will remain the unchallenged leader in cyberspace for the foreseeable(能预测的) future. Nearly all children in families with incomes of more than $75,000 a year have home computers, according to a study by the David and Lucile Packard Foundation. Youngsters from ages 2 to 17 at all income levels have computers, with 52% of those connected to the Internet. Most kids use computers to play games (some for 30 hours or more a week), and many teenage girls think nothing of rushing home from school to have e-mail chats with friends they have just left.What’s clear is that, whether we like it or not, the Internet is an ever growing part of our lives and there is no turning back. “The Internet is just 20% invented,” says cyber pioneer Jake Winebaum. “The last 80% is happening now.”55. What can we learn from the Micr osoft’s remark?A. Today’s cars and airplanes are extremely overpriced.B. Information technology is developing at an amazing speed.C. Information technology has reached the point where improvement is difficult.D. There’s more competition in informati on technology industry than in car industry.56. According to the author, the biggest benefit of the Internet is that_______.A. it saves companies huge amounts of moneyB. it speeds up profit makingC. it brings people incredible convenienceD. it provides easy access to information57. The author gives the example of to make the point that_______.A. there are some genius ideas on the InternetB. almost anything is available on the InternetC. people can find good bargains on the InternetD. some websites provide novel services to increase hits58.

Studies show that boys are more computer literate than girls.D. The U.S. will stay ahead in the information technology in years.59.

Think nothing of it. It was my pleasure.C. He thinks nothing of staying up all night in the Café bar.D. He thinks nothing of the pain in his back for the moment.60. What is the message the author intends to convey?A. The Internet is going to get firm hold of our lives some day.B. The Internet is going to influence our lives even more greatly.C. We should have a positive attitude towards the changes the Internet brings.D. Children should be well prepared for the challenges in the information age. 第二节：任务型阅读（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）阅读下列材料，从所给的六个选项（A、B、C、D、E和F）中，选出符合各小题要求的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑.选项中有一项为多余选项.首先请阅读下列住宿信息.AWeekly Rent: ￡BLocation: InsidAvailability: From 25 Aug. 2010Weekly Rent: ￡Notes: Full private shower, basic kitchen, furniture, bedding services and brLocation:Room Type:Availability: From 1 Apr.2010Weekly Rent:￡Notes: 1 double bedroom with lounge, kitchen, bathroom and WC.

No one answered him or moved, for no one knew what to do. “Just don't tell my mother,” said Fee numbly. “And no one did! Oh, God! My poor, poor Frank!”Paddy wiped the tears from his face and said. “Fee dear, pack your things. We'll go to see him.”She half-rose before sinking back, her eyes in her small white face stared as if dead. “I can't go,”she said without a hint of pain, yet making everyone feel that the pain was there. “It would kill him to see me. I know him so well—his pride, his ambition. Let him bear the shame alone, it's what he wants. We've got to help him keep his secret. What good will it do him to see us?”Paddy was still weeping, not for Frank, but for the life which had gone from Fee's face, for the dying in her eyes. Frank had always brought bitterness and misfortune, always stood between Fee and himself. He was the cause of her withdrawal from his heart and the hearts of his children. Every time it looked as if there might be happiness for Fee, Frank took it away. But Paddy's love for her was as deep and impossible to wipe out as hers was for Frank.So he said. “Well, Fee, we won't go. But we must make sure he is taken ca re of. How about if I write to Father Jones and ask him to look out for Frank?”The eyes didn't liven, but a faint pink stole into her cheeks. “Yes, Paddy, do that. Only make sure he knows not to tell Frank we found out. Perhaps it would ease Frank to thin k for certain that we don't know.”41. Which of the following is true according to the passage?A. Frank was found guilty of murder because he was a professional boxer.B. The family didn't find out what happened to Frank until three years later.C. The jury and the judge disagreed on whether Frank had committed murder.D. Frank didn't want his family to find out what happened because Paddy disliked him.42. Paddy cried because he thought ______________.A. Frank did kill someone and deserved the punishmentB. Frank should have told Fee what had happenedC. what had happened to Frank was killing FeeD. Frank had always been a man of bad moral character43. “She half-rose before sinking back…” (in Paragraph 6) shows that______________.A. Fee was so heart-broken that she could hardly stand upB. Fee didn't want to upset Paddy by visiting FrankC. Fee couldn't leave her family to go to see FrankD. Fee struggled between wanting to see Frank and respecting his wish44. Which of the following suggests that Fee was deeply shocked by what happened to Frank?A. “Her eyes in her small white face stared as if dead.”B. “Let him bear the shame alone, it’s what he wants.”C. “Every time it looked as if there might be happiness for Fee, Frank took it away.”D. “The eyes didn’t liven, but a faint pink stole into her cheeks.”45. What is Fee's probable relationship with Frank and Paddy?A. Son and brother.B. Son and husband.C. Brother and lover.D. Lover and husband.BAs you sow, sow will reap. With your perseverance and improvement, you are getting closer to success. At this stage, wait for others to congratulate you on your accomplishment s and compliments graciously. “Thanks, I really worked hard on that prospect. I’m pleased you recognize my efforts.” The cong ratulations and compliments from others will promote you to gain further success.Self-confidence is extremely important in almost every aspect of our lives, and it is no wonder that so many people struggle to find it. Self-confidence really can be learned and built on. Besides, whether you’re working on your own self-confidence or building the confidence of people around you, it’s well worth the effort!46. Those who are truly confident _________.A. succeed without effort and hard workB. encourage people around to become confidentC. appear more attractive and thus become successfulD. gain the confidence of others and feel successful47. The underlined word “mock” (Para.3 ) is closest in meaning to ________.A. praiseB. imitateC. punishD. laugh at48. When others congratulate us on our achievements, we are supposed to ________.A. praise them in returnB. gain further improvementC. politely accept the complimentsD. expect them to congratulate you again49. Which of the following proverbs best goes with Paragraph 4?A. Look before your leap.B. It is no use crying over spilt milk.C. Genius is 1% inspiration and 99% perspiration.D. Learn from past mistakes and avoid future ones.50. The purpose of the text is to ________________.A. tell people how to become successfulB. convince people to do what they believe to be rightC. encourage people to build confidence and achieve successD. criticize people who lack confidence and thus fail in their careerCAdv ertisers tend to think big and perhaps this is why they’re always coming in for criticism (批评). Their critics seem to hate or resent them because they have a gift for self-promotion and because they have so much money to throw around. “It’s unfair,” they say, “that this entirely unproductive industry (if we can call it that) should absorb millions of pounds each year. It only goes to show how much profit the big companies are making. Why don’t they stop advertising and reduce the price of their goods? After all, it’s the consumer who pays…”The poor old consumer! He’d have to pay a great deal more if advertising didn’t create mass markets for products. It is exactly because of the heavy advertising that consumer goods are so cheap. But we get the wrong idea if we think the only purpose of advertising is to sell goods. Another equally important function is to inform.A great deal of the knowledge we have about household goods comes largely from the advertisements we read. Advertisements introduce us to new products or remind us of the existence of ones we already know about. Supposing you wanted to buy a washing machine, it is more likely that you would obtain details about performance, price, etc., from an advertisement.Lots of people pretend that they never read advertisements, but this claim may be seriously doubted. It is hardly possible not to read advertisements these days. And what fun they often are, too! Just think what a railway station or a newspaper would be like without advertisements. Would you enjoy gazing at a blank wall or reading railway regulations while waiting for a train? Would you like to read onlyclosely-printed columns of news in your daily paper? A cheerful, witty advertisement makes such a difference to a dull wall or a newspaper full of the daily amount of great disasters.We must not forget, either, that advertising makes a positive contribution to our pockets. Newspapers, commercial radio and television companies could not survive without this source of income. The fact that we pay so little for our daily paper, or can enjoy so many broadcast programmes is due entirely to the money spent by advertisers. Just think what a newspaper would cost if we had to pay its full price!Another thing we mustn’t forget is the “small ads”, which are actually in every newspaper and magazine. What an extremely useful service they perform for the community! Just about anything can be accomplished through these columns! For instance, you can find a job, buy or sell a house, announce a birth, marriage or death in what used to be called the “hatch, match and dispatch” column but so far the most fascinating section is the personal or “agony” column (读者来信专栏). No other item in a newspaper provides such entertaining reading or offers such a deep insight into human nature. It’s the best advertisement for advertising there is!51. What is the main idea of this passage?A. The costs of advertisement.B. Advertisers tend to think big.C. The benefits of advertisement.D. Advertisements perform a useful service to communities.52. Why do the critics criticize advertisers?A. Because customers are poor.B. Because critics think advertisement is a waste of money.C. Because advertisers promote products with too much money.D. Because customers are encouraged to buy more than necessary.53. Which of the following is Not true?A. Advertisement makes our life colorful.B. Newspapers are worth more than we pay.C. Good quality products don’t need to be advertised.D. Advertisement makes contribution to our pockets and we may know everything.54. In what way does the writer try to support his view?A. ComparisonB. DescriptionC. NarrationD. DefinitionDWhich is sillier: denying we ever went to the moon or trying to convince the true nonbelievers?Once upon a time – July 20, 1969, to be specific – two men got out of their little spaceship and wandered around on the moon for a while. Ten more men walked on the moon over the next three and a half years.Unfortunately, not quite. A fair number of Americans think that this whole business of moon landings really is a fairy tale. They believe that the landings were a big hoax (骗局) staged in the Mojave Desert, to convince everyone that U.S. technology was the “best” in the whole wide world.Which is the harder thing to do: Send men to the moon or make believe we did? The fact is the physics behind sending people to the moon is simple. You can do it with computers whose entire memory capacities can now fit on chips the size of postage stamps and that cost about as much as, well, a postage stamp. I know you can because we did.However, last fall NASA considered spending $15,000 on a public-relations campaign to convince the unimpressed that Americans had in fact gone to the moon. That idea was mostly a reaction to a Fox television program, first aired in February 2001, that claimed to expose the hoax. The show’s creator is a pu blicity hound (猎狗) who has lived up to the name in more ways than one by hounding Buzz Aldrin, the second man on the moon. Mr. X (as I will call him, thereby denying him the joyous sight of his name in print) recently followed Buzz Aldrin around and called him “a thief, liar and coward” until the 72-year-old astronaut finally lost it and hit the 37-year-old Mr. X in the face.Anyway, NASA’s publicity campaign began to slow down. The nonbelievers took the campaign as NASA’s effort to hide something while the believers said that $15,000 to convince people that the world was round — I mean, that we had gone to the moon — was simply a waste of money. (Actually, the $15,000 was supposed to pay for an article by James E. Oberg, an astronomy writer who, with Aldrin, has contributed to Scientific American.)If NASA’s not paying Oberg, perhaps it could put the money to good use by hiring two big guys to drag Neil Armstrong out of the house. Armstrong is an extremely private man, but he is also the first man on the moon, so maybe he has a duty to be a bit more outspoken about the experience. Or NASA could just buy Aldrin a commemorate plaque (纪念匾) for his recent touch on the face of Mr. X.55. We can learn from Paragraphs 2 and 3 that some Americans believe _______.A. moon landings were inventedB. U.S. technology was the bestC. moon landing ended successfullyD. the Mojave Desert was the launching base56. According to the writer, which of the following is to blame for the story about the hoax?A. NASA’s publicity campaign.B. The Fox television program.C. Buzz Aldrin.D. JamesE. Oberg.57. According to the writer, Mr. X _______.A. told a faithful storyB. was not treated properlyC. was a talented creatorD. had a bad reputation58. The believers think that NASA’s publicity campaign is ________.A. proof to hide the truthB. stupid and unnecessaryC. needed to convince the non-believersD. important to develop space technology59. What is implied in the last paragraph?A. NASA should not bother with the non-believers.B. Armstrong was a very private and determined person.C. Armstrong should be as outspoken as Buzz Aldrin.D. NASA should send more astronauts to outer space.60. The tone of the article is _______.A. angryB. conversationalC. humorousD. matter-of-fact第二节：下面文章中有5处（第61~65题）需要添加小标题.请从以下选项（A、B、C、D、E 和F）中选出符合各段意思的小标题，并在答题纸上将相应选项的标号涂黑.选项中有一项是多余选项.A.

Information is presented in an entertaining way．61._______With the arrival of the age of “information economy”, intellectual work is becoming a more important source of wealth than manufacturing．Organizations in all walks of life are doing more to spread their information．So people of the Public Relations are hired to speak for them．A lot of our news is actually collected from press releases and reports of events intentionally staged for journalists．In the information age, journalists spend their time, not investigating, but passing on the words of a spokesperson．62._______There is a joke in th e novel Scoop about the newspaper’s owner, Lord Copper．The editors can never disagree with him．When he’s right about something they answer “definitely”, and when he’s wrong they say “to some extent, Lord Copper．” It seems reasonable to suppose that, in the real world, the opinions of such powerful people still influence the journalists and editors who work for them．63._______In countries where the news is not officially controlled, it may be provided by commercial organizations who depend on advertising．The news has to attract viewers and maintain its audience ratings．I suspect that some stories get air-time just because there happen to be exciting pictures to show．In Britain, we have the tabloid newspapers which millions of people read simply for entertainment．There is progressively less room for historical background, or statistics, which are harder to present as a sensational story．64._______There is an argument that with spreading access to the internet and cheap technology for recording sound and images we will all be able to find exactly the information we want．People around the world will be able to publish their owneye-witness accounts and compete with the widely-accepted news-gatherers on equal terms．But what it will mean also is that we’ll be subjecte d to a still greater amount of nonsense and lies．Any web log may contain the latest information of the year, or equally, a made-up story that you will never be able to check．65._______Maybe the time has come to do something about it, and I don’t just mean c hanging your choice of TV channel or newspaper．In a world where everyone wants you to listen to their version, you only have two choices: switch off altogether or start looking for sources you can trust．The investigative journalist of the future is everyone who wants to know the truth．第II卷（共40分）第三部分写作（共两节，满分40分）第一节短文改错（共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分）下面短文中有10处语言错误.请在有错误的地方增加、删除或修改某个单词.增加：在缺词处加一个漏字符号（∧），并在其下面写上该加的词.删除：把多余的词用斜线（＼）划掉.修改：在错的词下划一横线，并在该词下面写上修改后的词.注意：1. 每次错误及其修改均仅限一词；2. 只允许修改10处，多者（从第11处起）不计分.Dear Li Mei,With the mid-term exam come, you must get prepared for them.

AThis list of the most visited museums in the world will give you plenty of ideas for top museums to see on your own travels.The Prado Museum is the main Spanish national art museum, located in central Madrid. It is widely considered to have one of the world's finest collections of European art, dating from the 12th century to the early 20th century, based on the former Spanish Royal Collection, and the single best collection of Spanish art. Founded as a museum of paintings and sculpture in 1819, it also contains important collections of other types of works.The Louvre Museum is the world's largest art museum and a historic monument in Paris, France. Originally built as a fortress in the late 12th century, the central landmark of the city is located on the Right Bank of the Seine. Approximately 38,000 objects from prehistory to the 21st century are exhibited over an area of 72,735 square metres. The Louvre in 2016 was the world's most visited art museum, receiving 7.3 million visitors.The Metropolitan Museum of Art is located in New York City, and is the largest art museum in the United States. With 7.06 million visitors in 2016, it was the second most visited art museum in the world, and the fifth most visited museum of any kind. Its permanent collection contains over two million works.The Musée d'Orsay is a museum in Paris, France. It is housed in the former railway station built between 1898 and 1900.

Its permanent collection contains over two million works3. How is the Musée d'Orsay different from other museums?A. It has the largest collection of impressionist masterpieces.B.

Yet one city has found a way to make its train journeys more bearable, while promoting literature at the same time.On t wo train lines in Beijing, China, the subway cars have been turned into libraries. But they’re not your traditional libraries. Instead of hard copies of the books, the subway cars contain audiobooks, as part of a promotion for a Chinese audiobook app. The app has teamed up with the city of Beijing to promote literacy.However, the cars are still beautifully decorated to look like real bookshelves. The walls, and even doors, of the cars feature artistic drawings of the available books’ covers. Passengers can still browse the books just like in any other library on the screen, and once they’ve made their selection, they can scan the QR code on the “cover” of their chosen book. The QR code leads to the audiobook app, where the passengers can listen to the audiobooks for free. And they still have access to the books even after leaving the train!The app is called Dedao, which translates to “Get.” Thanks to the subway cars’ makeover, the app gets attention, and the commuters discover new stories every time they take a ride. And we think they’re all the better for it. Listening to audiobooks really can make your commute more enjoyable—it’s one of the things successful commuters do.If libraries with physical copies of books are more your thing, you can find plenty of those in China, too. In fact, in one Chinese library, the books go on forever!5. What is the main idea of the passage?A. Commuting to and from work is a major source of stressB. Train journeys should be more bearableC. Subway cars contain hard copies of the booksD. This City Transformed Its Subway Cars Into Moving Libraries6. Which of the following statement is NOT true according to the text?A. Audiobooks are provided with an aim of promoting an audiobook app.B. The city works together with the app to promote literacy.C. The cars are beautifully decorated with real bookshelves.D. The passengers can browse the books before they make their choice.7. What does the underlined word "available" in Paragraph 3 mean?A. convenientB. accessibleC. committedD. effective8. What is the correct order of the following events?① Make a choice② Listen to the audiobook for free③ Scan the QR code on the cover④ Browse the booksA.④①③②B. ①④②③C. ②①④③D. ③④②①CWhy do we travel? It is a question asked by historians, neuroscientists and anthropologists (人类学者) alike. Why are we driven, physically, intellectually and emotionally, to reach out beyond the horizon toward the unknown; to explore, connect and communicate? That question motivates Peter Frankopan’s splendid study, from prehistory t o the present, of the book Silk Roads: “the axis (轴线) on which the world spun”.The plural is important. Historically, the Silk Roads were a network, not a single highway. The geographical centre of this narrative is Asia Minor, Central Asia, the Caucasus, China and the Middle East; territories that met and traded with one another along main routes of communication. Frankopan freely admits to a boyhood enthusiasm for the region, a zone that for all its centrality remains doubtfully exotic (异国风情的) on our world maps.Now director of the Centre for Byzantine Research at Oxford, Frankopan has a pressing reason to promote the Silk Roads’ history from cultural relegation. How shamefully we in the West have been caught in the 20th and early 21st centuries with our strategic trousers around our ankles, failing to remember why the map of the Middle East is drawn with such straight lines. Our ancestors would have been horrified by today’s ignorance. Ancient reports of the region would put many modern memos to shame.Frankopan’s study, subtitled “A New History of the World”, reminds us that traffic – physically and culturally –typically runs two ways, and certainly did along the Silk Roads. Throughout, he relies on tight economic analysis: silk was, after all, not simply a luxury good but an international currency, too.We do history and the human experience a harm if we follow a linear (直线的) narrative through time, imagining it to be unidirectional or neatly boxed. Across time and space we are all connected; we all rise and fall. Globalization might be fashionable, but it is not new.9. What is the purpose of Paragraph One?A. To answer the question raised by historians and anthropologists.B. To ask the question why we explore, connect and communicate.C. To explain why the world spun on the axis.D. To introduce to readers a book by Peter Frankopan.10. Why does Peter Frankopan write the book The Silk Roads?A. Because the Silk Roads are an important plural historically.B. Because he narrates the geographical centre of the world.C. Because he was interested in the region since he was a child.D. Because there is no doubt the book seems exotic.11. Which of the following statements is INCORRECT according to the text?A. The Silk Roads is strictly based on economic analysis.B. We should follow a linear narrative through time.C. Traffic ran physically and culturally along the Silk Roads.D. People are all connected across time and space.DEvery year some countries move their clocks forward in the spring only to move them back in the autumn. To the vast majority of the world who doesn't participate in this strange clock fiddling(拨弄) — it seems a baffling thing to do. So what’s the reason behind it?The original idea, proposed by George Hudson, was to give people more sunlight in the summer. Of course, it’s important to note that changing a clock doesn't actually make more sunlight. That’s not how physics works.But, by moving the clocks forward an hour, compared to all other human activity, the sun will seem to both rise and set later. The time when the clocks are moved forward is called Daylight Saving Time, and the rest of the year is called Standard Time.This switch effectively gives people more time to enjoy the sunshine and nice summer weather after work. Hudson, in particular, wanted more sunlight so he could spend more time adding to his insect collection.Wh en winter is coming, the clocks move back, presumably because people don’t want to go outside anymore. But, winter doesn't have this effect on everyone. If you live in a tropical place like Hawaii, you really don't have to worry about seasons, because they pretty much don't happen. And so, Hawaii is one of two states in the Union that ignore Daylight Saving Time.But, the further you travel from the equator in either direction, the more the seasons assert themselves, and you get colder and darker winters, making summer time much more valuable to the locals. So it's no surprise that the further a country is from the equator, the more likely it uses Daylight Saving Time.The Germans thought Daylight Saving Time would conserve energy. The reasoning goes that it encourages people to stay out later in the summer and thus use less artificial lighting.12. Why do some countries move their clocks forward in the spring?A. They actually make more sunlight.B. They physically give people more sunlightC. People seemingly have more time to enjoy the sunlightD. The sun probably rises and sets later.13. What does the word "baffling" in Paragraph 1 probably mean?A. understandableB. unbelievableC. confusingD. reasonable14. Which of the following country or district is likely to use Daylight Saving Time?A. HawaiiB. GermanyC. BeijingD. Phoenix15. Which of the following statement is true according to the text?A. The clocks move back when winter is coming, because everyone in the world doesn'twant to go outside anymore.B. The further a country is from the equator, the less likely it uses Daylight Saving Time.C. The Germans thought Daylight Saving Time would not save energyD. Unlike other states of America, Hawaii applies Standard Time.第二节(共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分)根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

But nowadays companies aren’t managing their knowledge workers’careers. Rather, we must each be our own chief executive officer. Only when you operate from a combination of your strengths and self-knowledge can you achieve true and lasting excellence.To build a life of excellence, begin by asking yourself these questions: “What Are My Strengths?”To accurately identify your strengths, use feedback analysis. Every time you make a key decision, write down the outcome you expect. Several months later, compare the actual results with your expected results. Look for patterns in what you are seeing: What results are you skilled at generating? What unproductive habits are preventing you from creating the outcomes you desire? In identifying opportunities for improvement, don’t waste time developing skill areas where you have little competence. Instead, concentrate on and build on your strengths.“What Are My Values?”What are your ethics(道德标准)? What do you see as your most important responsibilities for living a worthy, ethical life? Do your organization’s ethics resonate(共鸣) with your own values? If not, your career will be likely to be marked by frustration and poor performance.“Where Do I Belong?”Consider your strengths, preferred work style, and values. Based on these qualities, what kind of work environment would you fit it best? Find the perfect fit, and you’ll transform yourself from a merely acceptable employee into a star performer.“What Can I Contribute?”In earlier eras, companies told businesspeople what their contribution should be. Today, you have choices. To decide how you can best improve your organization’s performance, first ask what the situation requires. Based on your strengths, work style, and values, how might you make the greatest contribution to your organization’s efforts?41. The following steps are all the ways to find and improve your strengths EXCEPT_________.A. writing down your expectationsB. comparing the actual resultsC. finding out your advantagesD. developing your disadvantages42. Which of the following comments is NOT true?A. People should find results they are skilled at generating.B. Processing information by hearing others discuss is the most effective way of working.C. People who work in one team should have similar ethics.D. The fit working environment can help the workers work more efficiently.43. What can lead to a life of excellence?A. Self-pity and powers.B. Ambition and smarts.C. Self-awareness and strengths.D. Motives and self-knowledge.44. How might you make the greatest contribution to your organization’s efforts?A. Do what is needed.B. Identify your own strengths.C. Work in your own way.D. Obey the companies’ rules. BVincent Van Gogh was not always an artist. In fact, he wanted to be a church minister but was sent to the Belgian mining community of Borinage in 1879. He discovered that the miners there lived with terrible working conditions and received poverty-level wages. Their families were not well fed and struggled simply to survive. He felt concerned that the small salary he received from the church allowed him to live a normal life, which, in contrast to the poor, seemed unfair.A rich family in the community offered him free room and board. But Van Gogh turned down the offer, stating that it was the final temptation he must reject if he was to faithfully serve his community of poor miners. He believed that if he wanted them to trust him, he must become one of them. And if they were to learn of the love of God through him, he must love them enough to share with them.He was fully aware of a wide chasm which can separate words and actions. He knew that people’s lives often speak louder and clearer than their words. Maybe it was that same knowledge that led Francis of Assisi to frequently remind his monks（修士，僧侣）, “Wherever you go, preach. Use words if necessary.”There are a million ways to say, “I love you,” without even saying a word!45. Among the following statements of Vincent Van Gogh, which is Not true?A. He was an artist.B. He wasn’t satisfied with his salaryC. He thought the wages of the minors too low.D. He once worked as a minister.46. From the second paragraph, we know _____________.A. Van Gogh was crazyB. Van Gogh especially loved to teach children artsC. Van Gogh was richD. Van Gogh deeply sympathized with the lower-class47. Vincent Van Gogh rejected the offer because _____.A. it was illegal for a ministerB. he wanted to be a minorC. he was devoted to his jobD. he was dishonest48.

Van Gogh himself offered to work in the Belgian mining community of Borinage in 1879.CWhat is the nature of the scientific attitude, the attitude of the man or woman who studies and applies physics, biology, chemistry, geology, engineering, medicine or any other science?We all know that science plays an important role in our societies．However, many people believe that our progress depends on two different aspects of science．The first aspect is the application of the machines, products and systems of knowledge that scientists and technologists develop．The second is the application of the special methods of thought and action that scientists use in their work．He does not accept statements which are not based on the most complete evidence available．He rejects authority as the only basis for truth．Scientists always check statements and make experiments carefully and objectively．Furthermore, he does not readily accept his own idea, since he knows that man is the least reliable of scientific instruments and that a number of factors tend to disturb objective investigation．Lastly, he is full of imagination since he often has to look for relationships in data which are not only complex but also frequently incomplete．Furthermore, he needs imagination if he wants to guess how processes work and how events take place．These seem to be some of the ways in which a successful scientist or technologist thinks and acts．50．Many people believe that science helps society to progress through_________ A．knowledge only．B．more than one aspect．C．technology only．D．the use of machines．51．Which of the following statements about a curious scientist is TRUE?A．He doesn’t find confidence and pleasure in work．B．He is interested in problems that are explained．C．He makes efforts to investigate potential connections．D．He looks for new ways of acting．52．According to the passage, a successful scientist would NOT_______________．A．easily believe in unchecked statements．B．easily criticize others' research work．C．always use his imagination in work． D．always use evidence from observation．53．Which word can be used to describe the data that a good scientist uses?A．complete B．objective C．complicated D．accurate 54．What does the passage mainly discuss?A．Application of technology．B．Progress in modem society．C．Scientists' ways of thinking and acting．D．How to become a successful scientist．DDear Malia and Sasha,I know that you've both had a lot of fun these last two years on the campaign trail, going to picnics and parades and state fairs, eating all sorts of junk food your mother and I probably shouldn't have let you have. But I also know that it hasn't always been easy for you and Mom, and that as excited as you both are about that new puppy, it doesn't make up for all the time we've been apart. I know how much I've missed these past two years, and today I want to tell you a little more about why I decided to take our family on this journey.When I was a young man, I thought life was all about me—about how I'd make my way in the world, become successful, and get the things I want. But then the two of you came into my world with all your curiosity and mischief and those smiles that never fail to fill my heart and light up my day. And suddenly, all my big plans for myself didn't seem so important anymore. I soon found that the greatest joy in my life was the joy I saw in yours. And I realized that my own life wouldn't count for much unless I was able to ensure that you had every opportunity for happiness and fulfillment in yours. In the end, girls, that's why I ran for President: because of what I want for you and for every child in this nation.I want all our children to go to schools worthy of their potential—schools that challenge them, inspire them, and instill in them a sense of wonder about the world around them. I want them to have the chance to go to college—even if their parents aren't rich. And I want them to get good jobs: jobs that pay well and give them benefits like health care, jobs that let them spend time with their own kids and retire with dignity.I want us to push the boundaries of discovery so that you'll live to see new technologies and inventions that improve our lives and make our planet cleaner and safer. And I want us to push our own human boundaries to reach beyond the divides of race and region, gender and religion that keep us from seeing the best in eachother.Sometimes we have to send our young men and women into war and other dangerous situations to protect our country—but when we do, I want to make sure that it is only for a very good reason, that we try our best to settle our differences with others peacefully, and that we do everything possible to keep our servicemen and women safe. And I want every child to understand that the blessings these brave Americans fight for are not free—that with the great privilege of being a citizen of this nation comes great responsibility.That was the lesson your grandmother tried to teach me when I was your age, reading me the opening lines of the Declaration of Independence and telling me about the men and women who marched for equality because they believed those words put to paper two centuries ago should mean something.She helped me understand that America is great not because it is perfect but because it can always be made better—and that the unfinished work of perfecting our union falls to each of us. It's a charge we pass on to our children, coming closer with each new generation to what we know America should be.I hope both of you will take up that work, righting the wrongs that you see and working to give others the chances you've had. Not just because you have an obligation to give something back to this country that has given our family so much—although you do have that obligation. But because you have an obligation to yourself. Because it is only when you hitch your wagon to something larger than yourself that you will realize your true potential.These are the things I want for you—to grow up in a world with no limits on your dreams and no achievements beyond your reach, and to grow into compassionate, committed women who will help build that world. And I want every child to have the same chances to learn and dream and grow and thrive that you girls have. That's why I've taken our family on this great adventure.I am so proud of both of you. I love you more than you can ever know. And I am grateful every day for your patience, poise, grace, and humor as we prepare to start our new life together in the White House.Love, Dad55. Who was most probably the writer?A. A headmaster managing a primary school.B. A candidate to run for President of U.S.A.C. A manager running international business.D.

So why is it so hard for them to talk to their patients about it?The results of two surveys, one of primary care physicians and the other of patients, found that while most doctors want to help patients lose weight and thinkit is their responsibility to do so, they often don’t know what to say.“So while doctors may tell patients they are overweight, the conversation often ends there,” said Christine C. Ferguson, director of the Stop Obesity Alliance. “Patients are not told about the possibility of diabetes (a kind of disease),”she said. “And doctors don’t feel they have good information to give. They felt that they didn’t have adequate tools to address this problem.The lack of dialogue hurts patients, too. The patient survey, of over 1,000 adults, found that most overweight patients don’t even know that they’re too heavy. Only 39 percent of overweight people surveyed had ever been told by a health care provider that they were overweight.Of those who were told they were obese, 90 percent were also told by their doctors to lose weight, the survey found. In fact most have tried to lose weight and may have been successful in the past—and many are still trying, the survey found. And many understand that losing even a small amount of weight can have a positive impact on their health and reduce their risk of obesity­related diseases like hypertension and diabetes.Dr. William Bestermann Jr., medical director of Holston Medical Group, in Kingsport, Tenn. , which ranks the 10th in obesity among metropolitan areas in the United States, said the dialogue had to be an ongoing one and could not be dropped after just one mention of the problem. “If you’re to be successful with helping your patients lose weight, you have to talk to them at actually every visit about their progress, and find something to encourage them and coach them,” he said.He acknowledged that many doctors tend to be not optimistic.“Part of this is that there's this common belief, and doctors are burdened by it, too, that overweight people are weak-willed and just don’t have any willpower and are self­indulgent and all that business,” he said. “If you think that way, you’re not going to spend time having a productive conversation.”41.What is the Stop Obesity Alliance most probably in Paragraph 3?A. An organization of doctors specializing in obesity.B. An organization of patients suffering from obesity.C. A research group that conducts special surveys about overweight people.D. A research group dealing with doctor-patient relationship.42.How many of the patients surveyed have been advised by their doctors to loseweight?A. About 350.B. About 390.C. About 900.D. About 1,000.43. What can be inferred about obesity patients in Paragraph 5?A. They are not as hopeless as doctors think they are.B. Most of them have tried hard to lose weight, but in vain.C. Without their doctors’ constant coaching, there is little chance of theirsucceeding in losing weight.D. Most of them have just given up their hope of becoming less heavy.44. According to the passage, which factor contributes to the lack of dialogue betweendoctors and patients?A. Most doctors just never think of warning their patients about their weight problem.B. Many doctors find it difficult to persuade overweight people to lose weight.C. Most patients are too weak-willed to do anything about their weight.D. Many patients tend not to trust their doctors about their weight problem.45. Which of the following is the best title of the passage?A. Obesity in the U. S.B. Trouble of overweight Americans.C. Talk more, help better.D. Doctors or patients-who to bear more blame?BThe cultural and natural values of Kakadu National Park were recognized internationally when the Park was placed on the UNESCO World Heritage List. This is an international register of properties that are recognized as having outstanding cultural or natural values of international significance. Kakadu is the largest national park in Australia and is the second largest national park in the world. Kakadu is a biological wonderland, which is almost 8,000 square miles. The wildlife in Kakadu National Park includes over 280 kinds of birds, 60 kinds of native mammals, 55 kinds of freshwater fish, thousands of insects, and many reptiles, the most famous of which is the salt-water crocodile. All life in the park depends on water.Kakadu is not only home to the wildlife but the area is also famous for the longest continuous human culture that exists in the world. Aborigines have been living in this area for at least 40,000 years. The descendants(后裔) of these First Australians still live in Kakadu today. Kakadu contains one of the longest continuous records of rock art in the world, with around 5,000 paintings, with rock sites dating back 25,000 years. More than 1,000 sites have been recorded. Kakadu has been given double World Heritage status by the United Nations. It is one of only 17 of the 469 World heritage Areas listed for both natural and cultural values.It is Australia’s largest national park, but it isn’t just the size that surprises visitors—it is the sense of something very old and grand. Creation of the 500 km escarpment (悬崖) began 2,000 million years ago. Today those gorges are filled with rainforests, washed by waterfalls.Kakadu is one of the world’s special places. It is hard to pick the ideal time to visit Kakadu. In the wet season large areas of the park are closed to the public. It would not be possible to enter or exit from the park through the Kakadu Highway. Most of the people there agree that the best time to visit is at the end of the dry season. Some areas of Kakadu have restricted visiting times, and some are not open to the general public. Over 230 000 tourists visit Kakadu National Park every year. As you enter Kakadu National Park, you will be required to buy a permit. Part of this money is paid to the Traditional Owners of the land and the rest is given to the repairs of the park.46. Why does the author mention so much wildlife in Paragraph 1?A. To represent the scene of the nature.B. To attract readers’ attention.C. To take the wildlife for example.D. To show the value of the park.47. Kakadu is given double World Heritage status by the United Nations because of ___.A. the descendants of these First Australians still in Kakadu todayB. the particular environment and the unusual rock artC. the longest continuous human culture that exists in the worldD. Aborigines living in this area for at least 40,000 years48. The followings are mentioned in the passage except _____.A. living things in KakaduB. the escarpment and the gorgesC. the history of the parkD. the weather of the area49. The underlined word gorges in Paragraph 3 means _____.A. narrow valleys between hills or mountainsB. buildings where cases are determinedC. large and open structures for sports eventsD. places where something is located50. What does the author advise visitors to do when they go to Kakadu?A. To get more information about the special place.B. To make a better choice between the wet or dry season.C. Not to enter the national park without permission.D. Not to go there through the Kakadu Highway.C（London）—If it really is what’s on the inside that counts, then a lot of thin people might be in trouble.Some doctors now think that the internal fat surrounding important organs like the heart or liver could be as dangerous as the external fat which can be noticed more easily.“Being thin doesn’t surely mean you are not fat,”said Dr Jimmy Bell at Imperial College. Since 1994, Bell and his team have scanned nearly 800 people with MRI machines to create “fat maps” showing where people store fat.According to the result, people who keep their weight through diet rather than exercise are likely to have major deposits of internal fat, even if they are slim.Even people with normal Body Mass Index scores can have surprising levels of fat deposits inside. Of the women, as many as 45 percent of those with normal BMI scores (20 to 25) actually had too high levels of internal fat. Among men, the percentage was nearly 60 percent.According to Bell, people who are fat on the inside are actually on the edge of being fat. They eat too many fatty and sugary foods, but they are not eating enough to be fat. Scientists believe we naturally store fat around the belly first, but at some point, the body may start storing it elsewhere.Doctors are unsure about the exact dangers of internal fat, but some think it has something to do with heart disease and diabetes. They want to prove that internalfat damages the body’s communication systems.The good news is that internal fat can be easily burned off through exercise or even by improving your diet. “If you want to be healthy, there is no short cut. Exercise has to be an important part of your lifestyle,” Bell said.51.What is this piece of news mainly about?A. Thin people may be fat inside.B. Internal fat is of no importance.C. Internal fat leads to many diseases.D. Thin people also have troubles.52. Doctors have found _____.A. the exact dangers of internal fatB. internal fat is the cause of heart disease and diabetesC. being slim is not dangerous at allD. being slim doesn’t mean you are not fat inside53. According to the passage, which of the following is WRONG?A. Exercise can help to reduce the internal fat.B. People can get rid of internal fat by improving diet.C. Men are more likely to have too much internal fat.D. People with heart disease all have internal fat.54. From the last paragraph, we can find that _____.A. whether internal fat can lead to disease has been provedB. exercise plays in important role in people’s life for keeping healthyC. thin people usually have internal fat even if they are slimD. it is easier to burn off internal fat than external fat55. The underlined part in the last paragraph means _____.A. a long roadB. an easy wayC. a clear differenceD. a short distanceDFor years, there has been a bias（偏见）against science among clinical psychologists. In a two-year analysis to be published in November in Perspectives on Psychological Science, psychologists led by Timothy B. Baker of the University of Wisconsin charge that many clinical psychologists fail to “provide the treatments for which there is the strongest evidence of effectiveness” and “give more weight to their personal experiences than to science.” As a result, patients have no guarantee that their “treatment will be informed by …science.” Walter Mischel of Columbia University is even crueler in his judgment. “The disconnect between what clinical psychologists do and what science has discovered is an extreme embarrassment,”he told me, and “there is a widening gap between clinical practice and science.”The “widening”reflects the great progress that psychological research has made in identifying the most effective treatments. Thanks to strict clinical trials, we now know that teaching patients to think about their thoughts in new, healthier ways and to act on those new ways of thinking are effective against depression, panicdisorder and other problems, with multiple trials showing that these treatments—the tools of psychology—bring more lasting benefits than drugs.You wouldn’t know this if you sought help from a typical clinical psychologist. Although many treatments are effective, relatively few psychologists learn or practice them.Why in the world not? For one thing, says Baker, clinical psychologists are “very doubtful about the role of science” and “lack solid science training”. Also, one third of patients get better no matter what treatment (if any) they have, “and psychologists remember these successes, believing, wrongly, that they are the result of the treatment.”When faced with evidence that treatments they offer are not supported by science, clinical psychologists argue that they know better than some study that works. A 2008 study of 591 psychologists in private practice found that they rely more on their own and colleagues’experience than on science when deciding how to treat a patient. If they keep on this path as insurance companies demand evidence-based medicine, warns Mischel, psychology will “discredit itself.”56.Many clinical psychologists fail to provide the most effective treatments because_____.A. they are unfamiliar with their patientsB. they believe in science and evidenceC. they depend on their colleagues’ helpD. they rely on their personal experiences57. The widening gap between clinical practice and science is due to _____.A. the cruel judgment by Walter MischelB. the fact that most patients get better after being treatedC. the great progress that has been made in psychological researchD. the fact that patients prefer to take drugs rather than have other treatments58. How do clinical psychologists respond when charged that their treatments are notsupported by science?A. They feel embarrassed.B. They try to defend themselves.C. They are disappointed.D. They doubt their treatments.59. In Mischel’s opinion, psychology will ______.A. destroy its own reputation if no improvement is madeB. develop faster with the support of insurance companiesC. work together with insurance companies to provide better treatmentD. become more reliable if insurance companies won’t demand evidence-basedmedicine60. What is the purpose of this passage?A. To show the writer’s disapproval of clinical psychologists.B. To inform the readers of the risks of psychological treatments.C. To explain the effectiveness of treatments by clinical psychologists.D. To introduce the latest progress of medical treatment in clinical psychology.第二节根据短文内容，从A到F选项中选出能概括每一段主题的最佳选项.选项中有一项为多余项.A. A sense of humor is not an inborn ability.B. A sense of humor can be developed in our life.C. A sense of humor helps us from several aspects.D. A sense of humor means more than telling jokes.E. A sense of humor can be expressed in many ways.F. A sense of humor helps people to better enjoy life.61. _____ As awareness of the benefits of humor increases, most of us want to get all the laughs we can. It seems that almost every day there is another new discovery about the power of humor to help us physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually. Every system of the body responds to laughter in some important or positive way.62. _____ Many people mistakenly believe that we are born with a sense of humor. They think that when it comes to a sense of humor, “either you’ve got it or you don’t.”This is false. What is true, however, is that the ability to laugh and smile is actually something we are born with. For example, we laugh when we are tickled under the arm, even without thinking about how to react.63. _____ The parts of the brain and central nervous system that control laughing and smiling are mature at birth in human infants, but that is not the same thing as having a sense of humor. (After all, when a baby laughs in his small bed we don’t rush over and say, “That kid has a great sense of humor.”) Your sense of humor is something you can develop over a lifetime. Don’t be nervous before others and try to laugh at yourself—then you will make them laugh too.64. _____ Humor includes a lot more than laughing and joke telling. Many people worry needlessly that they do not have a good sense of humor because they are not good joke tellers. More than jokes, a sense of humor requires being willing and able to see the funny side of life’s situations as they happen. In fact, one of the best definition of a sense of humor is “the ability to see the nonserious element in a situation”.65. _____ There may be a thousand different ways to express your sense of humor, but joke telling is only one of those ways. As more is discovered about how humor benefits our life, more people will be able to see and enjoy the humor when they are in a difficult situation. Life depends on air, food and water, but it is made easier to live with a good sense of humor.第II卷（非选择题共40分）第二节短文改错（共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分）下面段文中有10处语言错误.请在有错误的地方增加、删除或修改某个单词.增加：在缺词处加一个漏字符号（∧）, 并在其下面写上该加的词.删除：把多余的词用斜线（\）划掉.修改：在错的词下划一横线，并在该词下面写上修改后的词.注意：1. 每处错误及其修改均仅限一词；2. 只允许修改10处，多者（从第11处起）不计分.Dear Abby:How are you? I’ve got a wonderful news to tell you. I have offered a scholarship at a university in Australia for my further education. One hundred and twenty student took exams for it, but only a few were chosen and I was one of them. Therefore, my parents are not happy about it. They are strong against my going there. They say it is too far away that they will not see me for a whole year and they are afraid that I will feel alone. They can’t imagine a girl so young live alone. They advised me to study in the capital instead. Then I’ll be able to continue living with them.

On average, Grade 1 students spend seven hours per week reading, Grade 2 four hours and Grade 3 two hours.It occurs to that the distinction among students in different grades must have something to do with the increasing homework and pressure. As a result, students have to spend much more time preparing for tests, which leads them to the loss of their awareness of the importance of reading, as well as steals their passion.In my pinion, both parents and schools should create a better environment to increase students’reading time. For example, parents can read together with children on weekends and schools encourage students’ reading by reducing schoolwork.仔细审题、认真作答。
