21．（6分）An international group of coffee experts has considered Ethiopia’s coffee as the best in the world. Coffee is a top export of the country. But at home, it is seen as national pride. Ethiopians feel good about their coffee, and enjoying a drink with friends is a long tradition.
International coffee experts travel the world to find the best coffee. They keep returning to Ethiopia. Some people say the climate produces quality beans. Morton Wenner is a coffee importer. He said, “Ethiopia has different ancient types of coffee. They are planted in places with perfect soil, perfect altitude, and climates that are really suitable for coffee processing, such as drying and things like that.”
Finding the best quality beans is often an issue of taste. The process is known as cupping — tasting and comparing coffee from different roasted beans, grading and then pricing them.
But before international experts come to taste, coffee beans are studied in small coffee laboratories. Helen Assefa, a lab technician, describes the process, “When the coffee comes to the lab, we assess its quality first by recording the details. Then we weigh the wetness level and screen the beans for analysis. After that we polish the coffee beans and taste the samples. At the end we check for imperfect beans.”
Ethiopia is making big profits on its coffee reputation by exporting coffee to more than 120 countries. The country has an export income of more than $840 million a year. But not all the best coffee leaves Ethiopia. Forty percent of the coffee grown in the country stays there. It remains an important part of everyday life at work, at home and at ceremonies just to celebrate that special cup.
1、Where does the Ethiopian’s pride mainly come from?
A．Traditional practices. B．Food export. C．International experts. D．Best coffee.
2、Ethiopia produces best coffee because of ____________.
A．the special coffee taste B．the long-standing tradition
C．the satisfactory mild climate D．the favorable growing environment
3、Which of the following describes the process of studying coffee beans in the lab?
a. polish and taste
b. weigh the dampness level
c. record quality facts
d. analyze the beans
e. check for imperfection
A．d-c-b-a-e B．c-b-d-a-e C．e-c-a-b-d D．c-d-a-b-e
4、What can we learn from the last paragraph?
A．Coffee is essential in Ethiopians’ daily live s.
B．Coffee is the most profitable industry in Ethiopia.
C．Most of the coffee production remains in Ethiopia.
D．Ethiopians often hold ceremonies to celebrate harvest.
22．（8分）At one time no one could travel on an English road faster than four miles an hour. That was the law until 1896. A man had to walk in front of a car which could not go faster than the man. At night the man had to carry a red lamp.
Once Charles Rolls brought a car from France to England, but he wanted to drive faster than four miles an hour. In order to have no trouble with the police, he had a talk with some of the police officers, who ordered their policemen to look the other way when the car came along the road. This was a good plan in the country, but not so easy to follow in the busy streets of London.
One night Rolls and some friends started from London on their journey to Cambridge. One of the men walked in front with the red lamp, but he walked as fast as he could. The police became very interested in walls and shop-fronts when they heard the car and not one of them saw it.
They reached a hill, but what a waste of time it was to drive down the hill at four miles an hour! Rolls was getting ready to jump into the car, but then he noticed a policeman who was not looking the other way. The slow car reached him.
“Good evening,” said the policeman, looking at the car.
“Good evening,” said Rolls, holding the lamp.
“One of these horseless things,” said the policeman, looking at it with interest.
“Yes,” said Rolls, and waited.
“I’ve often wanted a ride in one, but of course policemen can’t buy things like that.” He turned and looked hopefully in Rolls’s face.
“Jump in,” said Rolls.
“Thanks,” said the policeman, and did so. “Now,” he said, sitting down, “You can let it go just as you like do wn this hill. There isn’t another policeman on this road for a mile and a half.”
1、The policemen were told “to look the other way” so that _______.
A．they could watch the car coming from the other direction
B．Rolls’s car could go faster than four miles an hour
C．they could make sure no one was in the way
D．the car would not hit them on the road
2、In what way did the policemen carry out the order from their officers?
A．They greeted Rolls when the car came along.
B．They walked in front of the car with a red lamp.
C．They pretended to be attracted by something else.
D．They stood on duty every 1.5 miles along the road.
3、The policeman who said “Good evening” to Rolls wanted to _______.
A．teach Rolls a lesson B．take a free ride home
C．have a talk with Rolls D．have a car ride experience
4、After the policeman jumped into the car, Rolls _______.
A．dared not drive the car faster than he was allowed to
B．could drive as fast as he wished within a certain distance
C．could drive on any road he liked for the rest of the journey
D．drove his car as fast as he could down the hill to Cambridge
23．（8分）When American soldiers return home from war with disabilities, they often suffer twice—first from their combat injuries, next from the humiliation（羞辱）of government dependency.
Wounded veterans（老兵）learn they have two basic choices: They can receive almost $ 3 ,000 a month in disability benefits along with medical care and access to other various welfare programs, or they can try to find a job. Especially in this economy, it’s
no wonder that many find that first option hard to turn down.
Mark Duggan, an economics professor at Stanford University, reports that enrollment in the U. S. veterans’ disability programs rose from 2.3 million in 2001 to 3.9 million in 2014. The percentage of veterans receiving benefits doubled, from 8.9% in 2001 to 18% in 2014. Disability services for veterans now consume $59 billion.
In the 1980s and 1990s, male veterans were more likely to be in the labor force than nonveterans. But since 2000, that has changed dramatically. Now there is a 4% gap between veteran and non-veteran labor participation, with veteran participation lower.
Navy SEAL Eric Greitens, the founder of The Mission Continues, explains how soldiers who served their country are transformed into welfare receivers who live off their country.
“When veterans come home from war they are going through a tremendous change in identity, ” he says. “Then the United States Department of Veterans Affairs, and others, encourage them to view themselves as disab led.” By the time they come to Greitens’ non-profit organization, “We meet a number of veterans who see themselves as charity cases and are not sure anymore what they have to contribute.”
There are also more practical factors driving the disability boom. One is the expansion of qualification criteria. In 2000, for instance, type 2 diabetes was added as a disability because of evidence linking exposure to Agent Orange with the onset of the disease. Heart disease has also been added to the list.
Another possible factor is that younger veterans seem less against welfare than their parents’ generation. Veterans who have served since the 1990s are much more likely to sign up for disability than their older counterparts; 1 in 4 younger veterans is on disability, versus just 1 in 7 of those over age 54.
We shouldn’t go back to the bad old days when veterans were afraid to admit weakness. But Lt. Col. Daniel Gade is one of many veterans who think our disability system is harmful, psychologically, to former soldiers. Gade lost his leg in combat in 2005 and now teaches at West Point. He recently gave a talk to disabled veterans at Ft. Carson, in which he urged them to rejoin the workforce.
“People who stay home because they are getting paid enough to get by on disabilit y are worse off,” he warned. “They are more likely to abuse drugs and alcohol. They are more likely to live alone.”
What a waste of human potential, especially since most veterans on disability still have their prime working years ahead of them when they’r e discharged（遣退）.
We could solve this problem by changing the way we view-and label-veterans with disabilities. As Gade noted in a recent article, “Veterans should be viewed as resources, not as damaged goods.” He recommended that “efforts to help veterans should begin by recognizing their abilities rather than focusing only on then disabilities, and should serve the ultimate aim of moving wounded soldiers to real self-sufficiency.”
On a more practical note, the United States Department of Veterans Affairs could reallocate（再分配）resources to spend more on job training and less on disability. Current placement programs are sadly inadequate.
We are good at sending soldiers off to war. Yet when these young men and women return home, they are essentially told, “We’ll give you enough for a reasonably comfortable life, but we won’t help you find a job.”
It is unreasonable that we are condemning thousands of young veterans who served their country to life on the dole（失业救济金）rather than enabling them to re-enter the workforce with the necessary accommodations.
1、What do more and more wounded veterans appear to do nowadays?
A．Depend on the government for a living.
B．Be treated badly in most workplaces.
C．Ask the government for more dole.
D．Spend more time on job hunting.
2、How does Mark Duggan prove his opinion in the passage?
A．By listing figures. B．By giving examples.
C．By performing experiments. D．By analyzing cause and effect.
3、What did veterans use to do in the 1980s and 1990s?
A．Refuse to find jobs. B．Be a main labor resource.
C．Have much trouble finding jobs. D．Receive many disability benefits.
4、One of the reasons why there are more disabled veterans is that . A．damage from the war is greater than ever
B．veterans have suffered much more than ever
C．the scale of disabilities has been broadened
D．older veterans aren’t afraid to admit their disability
5、In Cade’s opinion, the veterans who receive welfare from the government tend to
_______.
A．save more trouble for the government
B．lead a miserable and unhappy life
C．increasingly depend on the government
D．suffer the humiliation of their combat injuries

25．（10分）Living closer to open fields and trees reduces your risk of being obese （肥胖）, research suggests and the benefits can be seen even in poor neighborhoods where risks of both obesity and poor mental health are known to be much higher. The new study, supported by Friends of the Earth Europe (FoE), also showed that the great outdoors had benefits for pregnant women. Those living close to trees and open fields,
considered a “natural healers” by the researchers at the Institute for European environmental policy, gave birth to children of much healthier sizes.
It is believed that the increased opportunity to be active and breathing in less air pollution may explain the reduced death rates and obesity prevention. After reviewing hundreds of previous studies, scientists say it can even reduce the chance of an early death by 16 per cent compared to those living in an “urban jungle.” The green spaces also reduced depression（抑郁）by allowing for people to meet others more easily and get away from busy and noisy activities of a city, experts state.
Robbie Blake, a campaigner for FoE, told The Guardian: “The evidence is strong and growing that people and communities can be energetic and lively when they have access to nature.
“We all need nature in our lives and it gives us fre edom and helps us live healthily; yet poor communities are routinely cut off from nature in their surroundings and it is holding back their wellbeing.”
The findings back up much evidence that shows setting up a home in a
heavily-polluted city can be damagi ng to someone’s health. After studying the well-being of nearly 110,000 women, they found living in cities also increased the risk of cancer and respiratory（呼吸）illnesses. Those in the greenest areas had a 34 per cent lower rate of respiratory disease-related deaths and a 13 per cent lower rate of cancer deaths.
1、What can we know about obesity from Paragraph 1?
A．The outdoors can prevent obesity. B．Obesity can cause mental trouble. C．Urban mothers can have obese babies. D．Pregnant women can get obese easily.
2、What is the social benefit of living in the countryside?
A．Having more freedom to rest. B．Meeting other people more conveniently. C．Breathing healthier air. D．Keeping more wealth and happiness.
3、What does the underlined word “We” in Paragr aph 4 refer to?
A．Pregnant women. B．Patients with respiratory illnesses.
C．Ordinary people. D．People living in poor communities.
4、What is the best title for the text?
A．Ways of living in the countryside B．Living in healthy neighborhoods C．Countryside, the greenest area D．Access to nature

This morning, our school held a fire drill. We were listening to the teacher attentively in the math class while we heard the fire alarm from the speaker on the wall. The teachers stopped teaching immediately and instructing us to exit the classroom in order. When it got into the passageway, we found we were surrounded by heavy smoke somewhere. It was choking and our tears ran down. We bent down, covered our mouths with handkerchiefs, and ran downstairs rapid into the open on the playground, just as we had taught before.
When we come back to our classroom, we gave a summary of this fire drill. I think the fire disasters often happen. So we should know the tips to escape from a fire for case of emergency.

29、Dear Sir or Madam,
I’m Li Hua, one of the students who attended the course English Film Appreciation last term. I like it very much mainly for the following two reasons. First, in this course,
we are exposed to different kinds of English films, which helps us improve both our English listening and speaking. Equally attractive are the amazing stories of the heroes, because they show us how a person can work hard to make a difference.
As a young student, I suggest that the teacher choose some more varieties of films that appeal to us teenagers, thus making the course more interesting. Besides, more activities should be designed so that we can have more chances to practice our English.
I’d appreciate it if you could take my suggestions into consideration. Hoping that the course will win more popularity.
Sincerely yours,
Li Hua。
