21．（6分）Have you ever heard of agritourism where you can experience farm life? If not, Dr. Cindy
Ayers-Elliott will tell you the real story of Foot Print Farms.
The original concept of building Foot Print Farms was simple. When Ayers-Elliott returned to her hometown after graduation，she didn' t have to look any further than her state' s alarming health statistics to find a mission. Everywhere she turned, there were reports of high blood pressure, diabetes, obesity and heart disease. “The problem was already identified." explains Ayers-Elliott. “Too many Mississippians were seriously unhealthy and it didn’t take research to see that. And many of the state' s greatest health challenges could directly result from poor diet. ”
These days，Foot Print Farms, which started with a few raised beds of herbs and vegetables, is making fresh, naturally grown food. "When speaking of the key to my success，the co-op model works because we share the work and rewards，” notes Ayers-Elliott. “ A perfect example is the Wingfield High School football team. To earn the money for equipment and other items, players committed to working five hours a week on the farm，and by the end of the summer they had produced 1，000 melons and the profits from their sales helped to buy weights，T-shirts，sweat suits and pregame meals. But the lessons they learned about the rewards of hard work and working together to accomplish something were even more valuable products of their efforts. ”
"It' s a model that can easily be learned in other places and I' m looking forward to seeing some of our current partners do just that——to take what they have learned here and spin it off in other communities,"Ayers-Elliott remarks. She is now looking forward to developing an agritourism aspect to the farm, where visitors can experience farm life, learn new skills and take with them seeds of inspiration they can sow in their own communities when they return home.
1、What made Ayers-Elliott set up Foot Print Farms?
A．The problems faced by local farmers.
B．Her further research into heart disease.
C．The failure of her career after graduation.
D．The health state of people in her hometown.
2、Why does the author take the football team as an example?
A．To advocate the concept of independence.
B．To stress the importance of teamwork.
C．To support the idea of co-op model.
D．To explore the key to success.
3、What is Ayers-Elliott' s attitude towards the future of Foot Print Farms?
A．Optimistic. B．Skeptical.
C．Cautious. D．Ambiguous.
4、What is the main idea of the text?
A．Naturally grown food bene fits people’s health.
B．Food Print Farms is making a difference in Mississippi.
C．Ayers-Elliott encourages people to experience farm
D．Agritourism is becoming increasingly popular in America.
22．（8分）After nearly half a century behind the wheel, Hisao Matsu moto, 85, is not ready to stop driving. “I’m not that old yet,” he says. “I still have 15 more years to go till I reach 100.” Mr. Matsumoto is one of more than 5 million drivers aged 75 or older. A million more will be on the roads by 2021. Worried, the police are trying to persuade many of them out of driving, because over-75s are twice as likely to cause a fatal accident as younger drivers, according to the National Police Agency (NPA).
Nearly half of older drivers who caused fatal accidents had signs of cognitive impairment (认知障碍). Hundreds of older drivers turn the wrong way into motor ways every year. In January an 85-year-old man steered his vehicle into oncoming traffic on a country road, hitting a car and two schoolgirls. Police believe he mistook the accelerator for the brake. The man’s family said he had rejected their requests to hand over his keys many times.
Such stubbornness is common, notes Kazunori Iwakoshi, who heads an NGO that supports elderly drivers. Many drivers argue that they have never had an accident and it is unfair to do that, so they resent themselves being cast aside.
Since last March over-75s renewing their licenses must take cognitive tests to screen for dementia (老年痴呆). The NPA expects these changes to take 15,000 drivers off the road each year. Last year more than 250,000 over-75s gave up their licenses after their families’ constant stream of persuasion, says Mr. Iwakoshi. His organization publishes a check list for elderly drivers, aimed at getting them to assess their responses themselves.
Mr. Matsumoto is lucky. His city gives pensioners unlimited access to public transport. However, thousands of elderly people are stuck in rural communities with no buses.
1、Why do the police try to persuade elderly drivers to stop driving?
A．To encourage younger drivers to drive safely.
B．To reduce the number of deadly accidents.
C．To introduce the National Police Agency.
D．To stress the significance of safe driving.
2、Which word is closest in meaning to the underlined word “resent” in parag raph 3?
A．resemble B．support
C．injure D．dislike
3、What does Paragraph 4 mainly talk about?
A．Tests to assess elderly drivers’ responses.
B．Families’ contributions to traffic safety.
C．Ways to renew licenses for elderly drivers.
D．Measures to control the number of elderly drivers.
4、What is implied about the restriction to elderly drivers in the last paragraph?
A．It can cause some new problems.
B．It is popular among elderly drivers.
C．It will do elderly drivers more harm than good.
D．It brings about easy access to public transport.
23．（8分）Wanted: A Personal Assistant
I’m a very busy woman, looking for an assistant to help me with certain important tasks. This is not your average assistant job. What I’m looking for is someone to take care of some of my m ore personal business so that I may focus on my true passion: grocery shopping. Please apply if and only if you are willing and able to accomplish the following tasks:
Work I would love to have a nine-to-five job. However, I find sitting in an office all day unbearable. An ideal assistant would secure a high-paying office job and excel in that setting, even going so far as to eagerly accept every invitation to after-work drinks.
Go on family vacations I love my family, especially when I don’t have to spend time with them. Thus, I will require my employee to attend all family vacations in my place. Since I’ll miss out on spending time with my nephews, a good assistant will live-stream (直播) them for me the entire time while discreetly muting the live-stream whenever they start fighting.
Exercise I am determined to get in better shape but find working out strenuous and tiring. The right candidate will exercise for a minimum of an hour every day and allow me to reap the benefits of his or her vigorous activity.
Eat Just kidding—I love eating!
Date I’m looking for love but find dating tedious and intimidating. Ideally, my employee will get a drink with a
potential mate so he or she can do the tiresome work of getting to know someone and deciding whether I’ll like h im. If the romantic candidate advances past a third date, I’d be willing to step in and proceed with the relationship from there, excluding birthdays, holidays, and other high-pressure situations.
Have a baby I’m eager to have a child, but being pregnant a nd giving birth seems hard. Likewise, raising a child seems daunting. I’d prefer to spend an hour or two with my child each day while someone else tackles the incredible responsibility of childrearing. Once my child turns 18, I will happily assume all parenting duties, excluding any financial obligations.
1、What is the author truly interested in?
A．Spending vacations. B．Going shopping.
C．Dating someone. D．Raising children.
2、The personal assistant needs to do the following things for the author EXCEPT ________.
A．working out. B．going to work.
C．accompanying families. D．eating delicious food.
3、What do you think is the purpose of the passage?
A．To warn. B．To inform. C．To amuse. D．To advertise.
（8分）When something goes wrong，it can be very satisfying to say, “Well, it’s so-and-so’s fault.” or “I know 24．
I’m late, but it's not my fault; the car broke down.” It is probably not your fault，but once you form the habit of blaming somebody or something else for a bad situation，you are a loser. You have no power and could do nothing that helps change the situation. However, you can have great power over what happens to you if you stop focusing on whom to blame and start focusing on how to remedy the situation. This is the winner's key to success.
Winners are great at overcoming problems. For example, if you were late because your car broke down, maybe you need to have your car examined more regularly. Or, you might start to carry along with you the useful phone numbers, so you could call for help when in need. For another example, if your colleague causes you problems on the job for lack of responsibility or ability, find ways of dealing with his irresponsibility or inability rather than simply blame the person. Ask to work with a different person, or don’t rely on the person. You should accept that the person is not reliable and find creative ways to work successfully regardless of how your colleague fails to do his job well.
This is what being a winner is all about—creatively using your skills and talents so that you are successful no matter what happens. Winners don't have fewer problems in their lives; they have just as many difficult situations to face as anybody else. They are just better at seeing those problems as challenges and opportunities to develop their own talents. So, stop focusing on “whose fault it is”. Once you are confident about your power over bad situations, problems are just stepping stop on for success.
1、According to the passage, winners________.
A．deal with problems rather than blame others
B．meet with fewer difficulties in their lives
C．have responsible and able colleagues
D．blame themselves rather that others
2、The underlined word “remedy” in Paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to________.
A．avoid B．accept
C．improve D．consider
3、When your colleague brings about a problem, you should________.
A．find a better way to handle the problem
B．blame him for his lack of responsibility
C．tell him to find the cause of the problem
D．ask a more able colleague for help
4、When problems occur, winners take them as________.
A．excuses for their failures
B．barriers to greater power
C．challenges to their colleagues
D．chances for self-development

29、Taking Part in School Activities
The study burden tends to be heavier and heavier for high school students. So they hold different views about whether they should take part in school activities.
Most students are very interested in their school activities. Firstly, they think that learning from textbooks is not their only task and that they should take every chance to get some practical knowledge. Secondly, they often feel worn out after long hours of study, so they can relax by taking part in school activities.
However, a few of them disagree. They believe that they should take full advantage of time to study because achieving good examination results is their major concern at present. Also, school activities have little to do with their future development and careers.
In my opinion, I prefer the first view. On one hand, we can learn a great deal from others in activities. On the other hand, the modern society requires many qualities of young people, so only learning from textbooks is not enough.。
