She just seemed so 38 the other girls there. So I decided to begin a(n) 39 with her.I asked her, “Did your mum drive you here?” She answered, “Oh, my mum is 40 .”My heart sank. I 41 , “When did she die?”“She died when I was seven.”Later on, she told us what happened the day her mother died.“I came home, 42 to tell my mum what a great day I had had.

She just said, ‘Emma, Mum just nee ds to go to the hospital.’”The girl said that she went to sleep that night 44 , and woke up to be told by her sister, “Emma, please keep 45 .

But I wonder 48 all the trends( 时髦 ) are worth following.Some people may defend(辩护) themselves 49 saying snake meat is nutritious (有营养的). But these people don’t realize that many parasites (寄生虫)， 50 do harm to our health, are found inside snakes.According 51 a survey, about 1000 tons of snakes are eaten every year in China and sometimes as 52 as 10，000 snakes are served on dinner tables in Shenzhen in a single day!These figures warn us that if no action is taken, 53 number of snakes will drop and there will be an increase in mice and wor ms, which will result 54 decrease of crop output.

From Monday to Saturday, the paper has about 75 pages, of w hich 20 pages are advertisements. It normally has 5 sections w hich are called Nation, Sports, Metro(大都会), Living and Business.Nation is national news mostly with some international news ab out earthquakes, floods, and tensions(紧张)around the world. Sports cover the professional sports in sea son, college sports, and high school sports. Metro is local news of the city of which includes political stories, crimes, and good neighbor articles. Living is the section with television programs, movies, comics, music, stories about pets, and advice. Busines s has listing of more than 10,000 stocks and a regular report ab out the stock market and business news. The advertising sectio n includes apartments and houses, employment opportunities a nd items to buy, especially cars and trucks.On Sunday, the paper is very large weighing more than two kilos. There are additional sections called Art, Books, International, and Travel. Since this is the day most Americans do not work, t hey have more time for reading. Each of the daily sections is lo nger so the newspaper is twice the size of the daily sections. H owever, the advertisements are nearly as many pages as the n ews on Sunday so the entire paper is more than four times larg er than the daily paper.Some companies print their own advertisements and pay to put them in The Oregonian. These include grocery(杂货) stores, clothing stores, car agencies(代理处), camera and video equipment stores, toy stores, and compu ter stores.

The Oregonian offers housing information every day.D. Portland is located in .Part IV Writing (45marks)Section A (10 marks)Filling in company application forms can become a boring and repetitive task, yet any carelessness on an applicant’s(申请人) part can draw a negative reaction from readers. Blowing it a t this stage, you won’t get a chance to persuade them in person , no matter how good you are. Each company or organization u sually uses its own specially designed form that, although it gen erally asks for the same basic information, may vary in detail. S o the suggestions below will help you to know what to do rather than what you should write.Prepare your personal data record in advance. When visiting fut ure employers, always carry it with you so that you can readily s earch for details such as dates, telephone, numbers and other useful information.Treat every application form as though it is the first one you are completing-write not only carefully but also neatly.Use words that describe each job you have held as fully as pos sible rather than list only the duties you performed. Particularly describe social activities that show your involvemen t(参与) in the community or in the activities in which you held a teac hing or coaching role.Pay particular attention if there is a section on the form that ask s you to say how your education and past experience have esp ecially prepared you for the position.Think this through very carefully before you write so that what y ou say shows a natural progression from past experience to the job you are applying for. If you can, and if they fit naturally, add a few words to explain how the position fits your overall career plan. Follow these suggestions and you can get your foot in the door of a great future!Title: How to Fill in_____71_______Section B (10 marks)My grandfather was a wonderful gardener. As long as I could remember, he had grown a garden full of vegetables in the bac k of his yard. He grew different kinds of vegetables. One year h e even tried pumpkin. The pumpkins did turn out well.As children, my sister and I would spend time looking after th e garden with him. We would learn about planting seeds. My gr andfather would show us how the beans would climb up the fen ce and he built up beyond the fence to let them climb even high er. I was always surprised to see them grow even taller than me .The pride of my grandfather’s garden was his tomatoes. Ever y year as soon as the tomato plants bloomed, I would ask my gr andfather when we could eat the tomatoes. He would say, “Not yet.”I would ask the next week, “ Can we pick them yet?”He would answer, “Not yet.”Finally, I would be sure that they were ripe(成熟的). When so many bright red tomatoes hung on the branches, I would go up to my grandfather and ask, “Can we pick them now?”He enjoyed seeing my sister and I eat the tomatoes. I think th e garden was my grandfather’s way of sharing his blessings wit h those around him. The garden always had more than enough produce for my grandparents and for my family, so he would giv e some to anyone who would accept. He hoped we could pass his generosity to others.As he grew older, I would look after the garden for him. My gr andfather never expected me to do all of it for him, but I could al ways see the pride on his face when everything was complete.81.

Tomor row四、阅读理解（每小题2分，共16小题32分）AIt was the beginning of the school year a few years ago and I h ad a little boy in my class who came from a nonEnglish speakin g home. He was very quiet and shy. I wasn’t sure how much he understood during the school day and I was especially concerned that he just stood by himself at break time and did not play.If I tried to talk to him，he would turn away and tightly shut his eyes to hide from me. After a day or two of this，I decided to seek the help from one of my outgoing and friendly little girls.I called her over and she ran to me，ready to help.I immediately began a long speech about what I needed from h er.I asked her if she would try to get him to play，and I started talking quickly about all these suggestions on how she could start communicating with him. I explained she could d o this，she could do that，she could try this idea，she could try that idea.She touched my arm to stop my talking a nd looked up at me in that wise and special way that only a sixy earold can，and said，“Don’t worry.I speak kid.” And she ran off.I stood there all alone，silently watching her.It took less than a minute for the two new f riends to run off，hand in hand，happily joining a game of tag (捉人游戏) taking place all over the gym.I often think of that small moment，about what I learned and how important it is for all teachers to s peak kid—big kid，little kid and middle kid.I know my focus must be on teaching st udents how to think，how to approach problems，and how to figure out solutions and teaching them never to let t he_opportunity away.We must be ready to learn from our stude nts because those “teachable moments” during the school days are for us，the teachers，as well as our kids.BWhen it comes to feeling better about yourself，nothing will help you like healthy eating.Controlling what you ea t is a big factor (因素) in how you look and feel.If you think about it，so much of how we behave，how we feel，and how our bodies perform is based on what we put into them. The old saying “You Are What You Eat” is actually true.The pro blem is that a lot of mainstream diet books you might find in you r local bookstore or online are trying to sell you diet plans that don’t work and that might even make you sick.Healthy eating is great for your body.It doesn’t take a rocket sci entist to figure that out.Many people don’t realize just how good healthy food is for them.By eating great foods that are natural a nd healthy，you can lose weight.You can also have a lot more energy.So yo u shouldn’t just think of healthy eating as a way to burn fat，but you should also think of it as a way to get your life back in o rder.You can spend more time with your family and get more work d one because you will have more energy.You will be impressed by how much better you’ll feel by putting nutritious，natural foods into your body.Your look will be better.You’ll have more energy，and you’ll be happier.The important thing to remember when it comes to eating healt hy is to not fall for any tricks.There are a lot of people out there l ooking to make quick money.They will tell you just something s o they can sell a book or a video.What you need is to trust a die t plan that is right for your cate yourself about your ow n body type.Find out what kinds of foods are best for you.If the diet book you trust doesn’t teach you these important factors，then you might be reading bad information.55. In the author’s opinion, if you want to feel better about yourself, you should________.A.keep taking exercises every dayB.avoid an unhealthy d ietC. try to lose weightD.make a diet plan56.By saying that “You Are What You Eat” in Paragraph 2，the author means________.A．healthy food is importantB．everyone has to live on food C．not all diet books are good for us D．what we eat provide s more energy than we need57.The natural and healthy eating can NOT________.A．help one lose weightB．burn fat in one’s body C．decrease one’s energyD．make one’s life regularized58.According the passage, a good diet book should be one ___ _____.A. that help you enjoy foodB. that is popular among peo pleC. that helps you choose suitable foodsD. that supplies much information59．The purpose of this passage is to________.A．describe a good diet bookB．teach people how to make diet plansC．list the advantage and disadvantage of eatingD．show the importance of healthy eating and some tricks in e atingCEveryone knows that the French are romantic, the Italians are f ashionable and the Germans are serious. Or do they? Are thes e just stereotypes or is there really such a thing as national char acter? And if there is, can it affect how a nation succeed or fail?At least one group of people is certain that it can. A recent surv ey of the top 500 entrepreneurs (实业家) in the UK found that 70 percent felt that their efforts were no t appreciated by the British public.Britain is hostile to success, they said. It has a culture of jealous y (嫉妒) . As a result, the survey said, entrepreneurs were “unloved, unwanted and misunderstood”. Jealousy is sometimes known a s the “green-eyed monster” and the UK is its home. Scientists at Warwich U niversity in the UK recently tested this idea. They gathered a gr oup of people together and gave each an imaginary amount of money. Some were given a little, others a great deal. Those giv en a little money were given the chance to destroy the large am ounts of money given to others—but at the cost of losing their own. Two thirds of the people test ed agreed to do this.This seems to prove the entrepreneurs were right to complain. But there is also conflicting evidence. The Organization for Eco nomic Cooperation and Development (OECD) recently reported that the UK was now the world’s fourth largest economy .That i s not bad for people who are supposed to hate success. People in the UK also work longer hours than anyone else in Europe. So the British people are not lazy, either.“It’s not really success that the British dislike,” says Carey Coop er, a Professor of management at the University of Manchester Institute of Science and Technology. “It’s people using their suc cess in a way that seems arrogant (傲慢) or unfair or which separates them from their roots .”Perhaps it is the entrepreneurs who are the problem. They set out to do things in their way. They work long hours. By their ow n efforts they become millionaires. But instead of being happy t hey complain that nobody loves them. It hardly seems worth foll owing their example. If they were friendlier, people would like th em more. And more people want to be like them.DDo you want to go out of town for a bit of rest and relaxation? Before you start packing, visit these best travel sites for vacatio ners. In my opinion, they help people deal with common proble ms that pop up during a trip.Based on the advertised photos, the hotel you are considering appears to be clean and modern.

We have no 12 on the plane. We have a generator(发电机), and we are going to 13 the engines with it. We will 14 in the air and head to Norfolk, and see what happens. ”See what happens? We are going to get up in the air, and see what happens? At this point, one woman started crying. “Oh, no! We are going to 15 !” There were sighs of 16 and anxiety quickly spreading throughout the plane, and we hadn't even 17 yet. Thirty minutes passed and we were still 18 there. Then the voice of the pilot came over again,“ Ladies and gentlemen, I know you are 19 , so are we. We only have one engine going right now, and it is working double time.”There was crying 20 we had walked in to grave(坟墓). But the pilot told us our one engine was working double time, and his 21 was to get up in the air and see what happens! Then we did. We got up in the air and 22 happened. We arrived in Norfolk and everyone 23 for still being alive.Although I do sincerely like to have a plan 24 “see what happens”, it really isn’t such a bad life strategy. All too often, I would see people pursuing their goals 25 with inaction just because they don’t have 26 success. Actually, success will never be guaranteed. The 27 thing that you can do is just get up in the air, and see what happens.If you are planning to learn a new skil l, “get up in the air, and see what happens!” It might not be as 28 as you thought. You might be smarter than you thought, and the result could be very 29 ! So don’t stay there trying nothing just because there is no 30 of guaranteed success.11．A. Hopefully B. Excitedly C.

A3D cinema has been around since the early 20th century, but Hollywood brought the technology back in 2007. Many thought it was just a trick to make more money. But then came Avatar, the first must-see movie in 3D.But since Avatar, 3D cinema has struggled. In 2010, several 3D movies bombed at the box office. And by late 2010, some people said the technology was dead. Of course, this isn’t the first time Hollywood has struggled technology. Although sound was added to movies in the late 1920s, it took audience time to get used to the new technology. But in the end, sound and color became the standard. James Cameron, director of Avatar, thinks we’re going through the same process with 3D.Some day cinemas are charging too much for 3D movies. In the Us, seeing a 3D movie can cost up to $7.5 more than seeing it in 2D. Also, a recent study at California State Unive rsity has found audience don’t actually enjoy movies in 3D any more than in 2D. Walter Murch, a famous movie editor, wrote in 2011 that human beings have no ability to process 3D images. Watching a 3D movie confuses our brain and this is why some people get headaches.But James Cameron disagrees. In fact, he recently predicted that in five years all movies will be in 3D. And there are signs that 3D is fighting back. More 3D movies were put on the market in 2012 than ever before. The Lion King 3D recently made over $150 million at the box office, and Cameron’s Titanic 3D made even more.Who knows what the future holds for 3D? Steven Spielberg recently said, “ I’m hoping 3D gets to a point where people don’t notice it because then it just becomes another to ol and helps tell a story.”31．The underlined sentence in Paragraph 2 probably means that in 2010, 3D movies ________.A. were not successfulB. became popularC. developed quicklyD. were of poor quality32．The example of sound and color is used mainly to show that ______.A. Hollywood tends to absorb what is newB. 3D technology takes time to be acceptedC. Hollywood struggles with new technologyD. high technology helps to make better movies33．In Walter March’s opinion, 3D movies_______.A. bring movie makers great profits.B. are more expensive than 2D movies.C. do great harm to people’s health.D. are unsuitable for people to watch.34．What can we learn from the text?A. Avatar was the first 3D movies.B. 3D cinema has existed for years.C. Titanic 3D has made the most money.D. 2012 witnessed the coming of 3D’s time.BHobbs was an orphan. He worked in a factory and every day he got a little money. Hard work changed him thin and weak. He wanted to borrow a lot of money to learn to paint pictures, but he did not think he could pay off the debts.One day the lawyer said to him, “One thousand dollars, and here is the money.” As Hobbs took the package of notes, he was very dumbfounded. He didn’t know where the money came from and how to spend it. He said to himself, “I could go to find a hotel and live like a rich man for a few days; or I give up my work in the factory and do what I’d like to do: painting pictures I could do that for a f ew weeks, but what would I do after that? I should have lost my place of the factory and have no money to live on. If it were a little less money, I would buy a new coat, or a radio, or give a dinner to my friends. If it were more, I could give up the work and pay for painting pictures. But it’s too much for one and too little for the other.”“Here is the reading of your uncle’s will,” said the lawyer, “telling what is to be done with this money after his death. I must ask you to remember one point. Your uncle has said you must bring me a paper showing exactly what you did with his money, as soon as you have spent it.”“Yes, I see. I’ll do that.” said the young man.35．He wanted to borrow money because he wanted to .A. study abroadB. work abroadC. pay for the debtsD. learn to paint pictures36．Hobbs was dumbfounded on receiving the money because he thought .A. the money was too muchB. the money was too littleC. he would be dismissedD. the lawyer meant to punish him37．With the money he got, first Hobbs .A. planned to have a happy life for a few daysB. decided to give up his work in the officeC. was to give a dinner to his friendsD. had no idea what to do38．What Hobbs was asked to do was .A. to tell the lawyer what he did with the money after spending itB. to read his uncle’s willC. to tell the lawyer what was to be done with the moneyD. nothing but to buy some pictures39．What Hobbs really loved to do was .A. working in the factoryB. living in a fine hotelC. painting picturesD. saving the moneyCMeeting people from another culture can be difficult. From the beginning, people may send the wrong signal（信号）. Or they may pay no attention to signals from another person who is trying to develop a relationship.Different cultures emphasize（强调）the importance of relationship building to a greater or lesser degree. For example, business in some countries is not possible until there is a relationship of trust. Even with people at work, it is necessary to spend a lot of time in "small talk", usually over a glass of tea, before they do any job．In many European countries -- like the UK or France -- people find it easier to build up a lasting working relationship at restaurants or cafes rather than at the office.Talk and silence may also be different in some cultures. I once made a speech in Thailand．I had expected my speech to be a success and start a lively discussion; instead there was an uncomfortable silence. The people present just stared at me andsmiled．After getting to know their ways better, I realized that they thought I was talking too much. In my own culture, we express meaning mainly through words, but people there sometimes feel too many words are unnecessary.Even within Northern Europe, cultural differences can cause serious problems. Certainly, English and German cultures share similar values; however, Germans prefer to get down to business more quickly. We think that they are rude. In fact, this is just because one culture starts discussions and makes decisions more quickly.People from different parts of the world have different values, and sometimes these values are quite against each other. However, if we can understand them better, a multicultural environment will offer a wonderful chance for us to learn from each other. 40．In some countries, eating together at restaurants may make it easier for people to _______.A．develop closer relations B．share the same cultureC．get to know each other D．keep each other company41．The author mentions his experience in Thailand to show that _______.A．the English prefer to make long speechesB．too many words are of no useC．people from Thailand are quiet and shy by natureD．even talk and silence can be culturally different42．According to the text, how can people from different cultures understand each other better?A．By sharing different ways of life.B. By accepting different habits.C. By recognizing different values.D. By speaking each other' s languages.43．What would be the best title for the text?A．Multicultural Environment.B．Cross-Cultural Differences.C．How to Understand Each Other.D．How to Build Up a Relationship.DOn March 25, 2013, two pandas were shippedfrom China to Canada. The pandas received a warmwelcome to the North America from Canada’s Prime Minister Stephen Harper and Chinese ambassador(大使)Zhang Junsai.The pandas will spend five years at the Toronto Zoo, and then spend another five years at the Calgary Zoo. This is the first time in 20 years that pandas have been sent to a Canadian zoo. “I want to offer my sincere thanks to the government of China for sharing these two pandas, symbolizing peace and friendship, with all Canadians, ”said Prime Minister Harper.The pandas are named Er Shun and Da Mao. Er Shun, a five-year-old female, came from the Chongqing Zoo, in southwest China. Da Mao, a four-year-old male, traveled from Chengdu. The panda passengers were given plenty of snacks throughout the flight. Each panda received more than 200 pounds of bamboo and 100 pounds of apples.The number of pandas is decreasing and now there are only 1, 600 pandas left in the wild. And this is partly due to the loss of their primary food source, bamboo. According to a recent study, warming temperatures are causing a shortage of bamboo in at least one region of China where pandas live.The climate in Er Shun and Da Mao’s new home in Canada isn’t perfect for growing bamboo. Twice a week, the Memphis Zoo, in Tennessee, will ship about 700 pounds of the green plant up north to the Toronto Zoo. While the pandas are far from China, zookeepers plan to make Canada feel like their home.44．We can know from the second paragraph that .A. China often sends pandas to CanadaB. Canada is very thankful for China’s helpC. the two pandas will spend ten years in CanadaD. the two pandas will only live in one place.45．According to the passage, the two pandas .A. are both four years oldB. are from the same Chinese zooC. can eat as many as 100 pounds of apples in a dayD. were given over 400 pounds of bamboo on the flight46．What is Paragraph 4 mainly about?A. The reason for the decreasing number of pandas.B. The primary food source of pandas.C. The lifestyle of pandas in the wild.D. The effects of warming temperatures on bamboo.47．It can be learned from the passage that .A. pandas eat nothing but bamboo and applesB. the climate in Toronto is unfit for bamboo to growC. the animal that all Canadians like best is pandasD. China lent the two pandas just in order to help CanadaEDo you know of anyone who uses the truth to deceive(欺骗)? When someone tells you something that is true, but leaves out important information that should be included, he can give you a false picture.For example, someon e might say, “I just won a hundred dollars on the lottery(彩票). It was great. I took that dollar ticket back to the store and turned it in for one hundred dollars!”This guy is a winner, right? Maybe, maybe not. We then discover that he bought $ 200 wort h of tickets, and only one was a winner. He’s really a big loser!He didn’t say anything that was false, but he left out important information on purpose. That’s called a half-truth. Half truths are not technically lies, but they are just as dishonest.Some politicians often use this trick. Let’s say that during Governor Smith’s last term, her state lost one million jobs and gained three million jobs. Then she seeks another term. One of her opponents says, “During Governor Smith’s term, the state lost one million jobs!” That’s true. However, an honest statement would have been, “During Governor Smith’s term, the state had a net gain of two million jobs.’’Advertisers will sometimes use half-truths. It’s against the law to make false statements so th ey try to mislead you with the truth. An advertisement might say, “Nine out of ten doctors advised their patients to take Yucky Pills to cure toothache.” It fails to mention that they only asked ten doctors and nine of them work for the Yucky Company.T his kind of deception happens too often. It’s a sad fact of life: Lies are lies, and sometimes the truth can lie as well.48．We may infer that the author believes people should ________.A. buy lottery tickets if possibleB. make use of half-truthsC. be careful about what they are toldD. not trust the Yucky Company49．Which of the following is true according to the passage?A. Using half truths is against the law.B. Technically, half truths are in fact lies.C. Yucky Pills is a very good medicine for toothache.D. Governor Smith did a good job during her last term.50．Which of the following best expresses the main idea of the passage?A. He’s really a big loser!B. Sometimes the truth can lie as well.C. Advertisers will sometimes use half truths.D. It’s against the law to make false statements.第二节根据对话内容，从对话后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
