AOne afternoon last week, I saw three tearful children from my son's school being comforted by teachers. That morning, my 11-year-old had stomach pains, retching (干呕) into a bowl. Talking to other mothers later, I heard about other children with stomachache or difficulty sleeping the night before.What caused so much pain? Sports day. Sports day might be necessary at a highly competitive independent school, but not at a village primary school. For the children who can fly like the wind, sports day causes no problem. For those who are overweight or just not good at sport, it is a nightmare (噩梦). Even for those who enjoy running but fall halfway down the track in front of the entire school and their parents，it can prove a disaster.Why do we put our children through this annual suffering? Some may say competition is character building；or it's taking part, not winning, that's important；or that it is a tradition of school life. I just felt great pity for those children in tears or in pain.Team games at the end of sports day produced some close races, wild enthusiasm, lots of shouting—and were fun to watch. More importantly, the children who were not so fast or quick at passing the ball were hidden a little from everyone's eyes. Some of them also had the thrill of being on the winning side.I wish that sports day could be abandoned and replaced with some other less competitive event. Perhaps an afternoon of team games, with a few races for those who want them, would be less stressful for the children and a lot more fun to watch.21．What can we learn about the author's son from Paragraph 1?A．He talked with some mothers. B．He comforted his classmates.C．He had difficulty in sleeping. D．He suffered from stomachache.22．Sports day is still an annual event in this school probably because __________.A．this is an independent school B．it is a tradition of the schoolC．it helps children lose weight D．children enjoy watching sports23．What does the author think about team games?A．They should include more stressful races.B．They are acceptable to different children.C．They should be abandoned at primary schools.D．They are less fun for those who love running.24．What is the author's attitude towards sports day?A．Critical. B．Neutral.C．Positive. D．Ambiguous.BMOOCs, short f or “massive open online courses，” mark an important, possibly revolutionary, development in education. These courses are on line, free of charge, and open to anyone in the world who has a laptop and an Internet connection. Moreover, they are mainly offered by great universities like Stanford, Berkeley, Harvard and Columbia.The courses are arranged according to how difficult they are, enabling students to progress from beginners to the advanced. The courses cover not only a broad range of science subjects such as math and computer science, but also courses in social sciences and humanities. Though MOOCs are not offered for credit and degree, many students enroll(加入) in the courses for real skills or knowledge which they can put to some practical use.The format(形式) seems better than the traditional school class. The average quality of the lecturers is much higher. Besides, students can learn back and forward—that is, they can go at their own learning speed, which they can't do in a live lecture. And, more importantly, they don't have to travel anywhere to attend an online lecture. There is a problem of asking questions of the lecturer in a class of ten thousand students, but some MOOCs have solved it by allowing students to post questions on line for a vote, and only the most popular questions are put to the lecturer.In a knowledge age, lifelong learning is not confined to a traditional classroom. Students taking MOOCS are usually very clever, have work experience, and in many cases, have already developed a set of practical skills. Moreover, they also offer unique international perspectives(远景) that would be the envy of any school classroom.25．Which of the following statements is NOT true about MOOCs?A．The word “MOOCs” is short for “massive open online campuses”．B．Anyone who has a computer and an Internet connection can take MOOCs.C．MOOCs are usually offered by first-class universities in the world.D．MOOCs may be a breakthrough in the development of education.26．MOOCs seem to have an advantage over traditional school classes in that ________.A．there is a problem of asking questions in traditional classesB．students enrolling in MOOCs can get credit and degree easilyC．students can learn at their own study paceD．students can travel to many places when taking MOOCs27．The meaning of the underlined word “confined” means ________.A．extended B．developedC．limited D．advancedCPassenger pigeons (旅鸽)once flew over much of the United States in unbelievable numbers. Written accounts from the 18th and 19th centuries described flocks (群)so large that they darkened the sky for hours.It was calculated that when its population reached its highest point, there were more than 3 billion passenger pigeons—a number equal to 24 to 40 percent of the total bird population in the United States, making it perhaps the most abundant bird in the world. Even as late as 1870 when their numbers had already become smaller, a flock believed to be 1 mile wide and 320 miles (about 515 kilometers) long was seen near Cincinnati.Sadly the abundance of passenger pigeons may have been their undoing. Where the birds were most abundant, people believed there was an everlasting supply and killed them by the thousands. Commercial hunters attracted them to small clearings with grain, waited until pigeons had settled to feed, then threw large nets over them, taking hundreds at a time. The birds were shipped to large cities and sold in restaurants.By the closing decades of the 19th century，the hardwood forests where passenger pigeons nested had been damaged by Americans' need for wood, which scattered (驱散) the flocks and forced the birds to go farther north, where cold temperatures and spring storms contributed to their decline. Soon the great flocks were gone, never to be seen again.In 1897, the state of Michigan passed a law prohibiting the killing of passenger pigeons, but by then, no sizable flocks had been seen in the state for 10 years. The last confirmed wild pigeon in the United States was shot by a boy in Pike County, Ohio, in 1900. For a time, a few birds survived under human care. The last of them, known affectionately as Martha, died at the Cincinnati Zoological Garden on September 1, 1914.28. In the 18th and early 19th centuries, passenger pigeons________.A. were the biggest bird in the worldB. lived mainly in the south of AmericaC. did great harm to the natural environmentD. were the largest bird population in the US29. The underlined word “undoing” probably refers to the pigeons'________.A. escapeB. ruinC. liberationD. evolution30. What was the main reason for people to kill passenger pigeons?A. To seek pleasure.B. To save other birds.C. To make money.D. To protect crops.31. What can we infer about the law passed in Michigan?A. It was ignored by the public.B. It was declared too late.C. It was unfair.D. It was strict.DWhen different species of birds flock(聚集) together, their flight formations are determined by social dynamics both between and within species.New research from the Universities of Cambridge and Exeter reveals for the first time that, contrary to current models used to explain the movement of flocks, the differences between bird species and social relationships between individuals play a critical role in determining the dynamics of mixed-species flocks.The unified(群集) behaviour of bird flocks has puzzled scientists for hundreds of years. One naturalist from the turn of the century even suggested telepathy(心灵感应) may be involved. There have since been more logical explanations, including mathematical models that show that repeated interactions among individuals following simple rules can generate coordinated(协同的) group movements. However, these models usually rely on the assumption that individuals within groups are identical and interact independently, which may not reflect reality.Jolle Jolles, a PhD student at the University of Cambridge's Department of Zoology and author of the paper, said：“Spectacular collective behaviour can be found in a large range of animal species, and we now know that often these complex coordinated group movements may be the result of individuals following simple rules. However, rarely are the individual characteristics and social relationships within them taken into account. Our research highlights that these striking displays of group behaviour are much more complex.”By analysing high-resolution photographs of mixed flocks of rooks and jackdaws(both from the corvid family), the researchers found that rather than individuals interacting in a consistent fashion throughout the flock, interactions depended on social dynamics between the different species as well as relationships within a species.The researchers discovered that birds prefer to fly close to members of their own species, and that the larger and more dominant rooks take the lead by flying near the front of flocks. Additionally, the lifelong, monogamous(一妻一夫制的) pair bonds that are characteristic of both species seem to be reflected in flight, as birds often fly particularly close to a single, same species partner.Dr Alex Thornton, principal investigator of the Cambridge Jackdaw Project, now at the University of Exeter and author of the paper, said “Together, our findings demonstrate that to understand the structure of groups，such as bird flocks，we need to consider the characteristics and relationships of the individuals within them.”32. The underlined word “generate” means ________.A．set down B．take awayC．bring about D．give up33．According to Jolle Jolles, what are seldom considered about coordinated group movement?A．Individual characteristics and social relationship between them.B．Repeated interactions among individuals and social dynamics.C．Telepathy and social relationship between them.D．The structure of groups and the varieties of species.34．Birds may prefer to fly the closest to ________.A．the largest one B．the most dynamic oneC．the lifelong partner D．the friendly partner35．What is the main idea of the passage?A．How birds interact in simple rules.B．How birds of different feathers flock together.C．Why birds show preference to flocking.D．Why birds display the characteristics.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，选项中有两项为多余选项。

ALoulan, an ancient city in the Lop Nur, was first “discovered” by Swedish explorer Sven Hedin in 1900. The finding of Loulan brought about new and unexpected fame for the ancient history of the Central Asia and thus began the exploration of the Taklamakan Desert.The City of Loulan is known both in China and throughout the world as the Middle Kingdom's “Pompeii” in the desert and one of the cradles of the civilization. It wasn't hard to imagine how excited Sven Hedin must have been when he was awarded the Victoria Medal by the Royal Geography Association. From that point forward, the mysterious covering of Loulan was gradually lowered and was no more a silent unknown hero but became an immediate worldwide sensation(引起轰动的事). Adventurers from America, Britain, Japan and Sweden, including Huntington, Stein, Otani Kozui and Bergman set foot here for several times. In the 1930s, Chinese archaeologist Huang Wenbi came here for the first time and made a survey of this area, which was found even then in terrible conditions due to uncontrolled digging with many wonderful cultural historic relics takenaway to distant foreign lands.In 1979, a group of tombs called Sun Tombs, known for their unique and attractive burial forms, were unearthed in the Gumugou Graveyard, the public graveyard of the Lop Nur citizens in the Bronze Age. In early 1980s, in the Tiebanhe River Delta area of the lower reaches of the Peafowl River in Lop Nur, a female mummy dating back some 3,800 years was unearthed and was considered by the Japanese as the “Loulan Beauty”. This set off a wave of current exploration of theSilk Road.The archaeological unearthing being currently conducted in the Xiaohe(Small River) Graveyard is now the focus of the world's most important academic event. The Xiaohe Graveyard, 175km west of the City of Loulan, is located in the lower reaches of the Peafowl River in the Lop Nur. When the Graveyard was found, it is said that there were some 1,000 coffins. It is large in scale with sand dunes(沙丘) as high as eight metres, on which about 140 wooden stakes(树桩) in various shapes were closely arranged. These burial customs are, to say the least, unusual...with the unearthed relicsdated back to China's most ancient days.21．Which of following statements shows the correct position of the City of Loulan?A．It lies in the Tiebanhe River Delta.B．It lies in the lower reaches of the Peafowl River.C．It lies south of the Gumugou Graveyard.D．It lies 175 km east of the Xiaohe Graveyard.22．Which of the following is the closest in meaning to the word “Pompeii”？A．A city as world famous as the Middle Kingdom's “Pompeii”．B．A buried city in the desert of great historical value.C．A buried city to be unearthed like the Italian city “Pompeii”．D．A city visited by many archaeologists all over the world like “Pompeii”．23．From the passage, it can be inferred that ________.A．it was a Chinese archaeologist that first discovered the City of Loulan B．it is of the greatest importance and value to be unearthing the Xiaohe Graveyard C．foreign adventurers did much damage to the exploration and relics of the City of Loulan D．one after another important discovery about Loulan was made, causing worldwide sensationBYou put a great deal of effort into reaching the college of your choice. It's time to get started. But what's next? Beginning college can be an exciting but awkward time. Follow these tips to adjust to your new life rapidly and make the most of your college experience.●To save time and money, use the college's bus system. Taking the bus to school is quick, easy and free in most college towns. You won't have to locate or afford a place to park, either. It's also a goodway to be environmentally aware.●Save pennies on books by waiting until class starts. You might not even need all of the recommended books. New textbooks cost an arm and a leg. Try buying used textbooks—it's a sure fair way to save money and serves the purpose as well.●Do never look at college life as an endless series of parties and social activities. But there is a whole lot more to college if you're serious about graduating. Having a good college experience is allabout balancing work and fun.●Be aware that your living environment can largely affect your academic success. If the dorm doesn't suit you, consider living at home with your family or renting your own apartment. The best location for your studies isn't always your dorm. Find a quiet area, like the library, to do your work.Alternatively, buy some headphones that block out noise.●Be mindful of your diet. Make healthy food choices and watch what you eat. Avoid foods that are processed or high in sugar. The “freshman 15”is real. Many college students gain at least 15pounds during their freshmen year.●While electives(选修课) can be helpful when figuring out your major, you shouldn't entirely rely on them. Clubs and other organizations exist around. Get involved. Make sure, though, that you still have time to study. Having_too_much_on_your_plate can hurt your grades.24．Which of the following ideas can be financially wise?A．Driving your own car.B．Buying used books.C．Renting an apartment.D．Attending activities.25．In the text, freshmen are repeatedly warned against ________.A．academic failures B．physical problemsC．traffic accidents D．social activities26．The “freshman 15”tells the fact that some freshmen ________.A．attend limited activities on campusB．have little regular physical exerciseC．focus less on their academic workD．take relaxed attitudes to their diets27．The underlined phrase “Having too much on your plate”probably refers to ________.A．using too much money for mealsB．eating too many unhealthy foodsC．taking part in too many afterclass activitiesD．taking an elective that has too many studentsCA huge cloud of dust rose and an overpass disappeared. This was the scene in Zhuzhou, HunanProvince on May 17.Nine people were killed and 16 injured.Things were similar last year in the Sichuan earthquake. Thousands of people were buried in the ruins and lost their lives. What if we could have warned them?People are always racking_their_brains to find a way of preventing buildings' collapse. Better materials and technology help, but they are not a solution.Just like humans, a building has its own life cycle from “birth” to “death”. If we know when a building is going to collapse, we can repair it in advance or get out of it before it falls. Now, scientists at the University of Illinois have developed a material that turns red before it breaks.The invention could be used in things like climbing ropes or bridge supports.The research was led by Nancy Sottos, a professor at the university's Beckman Institute, andDouglas Davis, a graduate research assistant.The secret behind the colorchanging material is a type of molecule (分子). A molecule is a group of atoms held together by chemical bonds. Imagine you and your friends standing in a circle, holding hands. Each person stands for one atom, your hands represent the bonds, and the entire circle represents a molecule. If one person lets go of his or her hands, the molecule changes color. The research team put the molecule into a soft material. When the researchers stretched the material, it turned bright red for a few seconds before it broke into two pieces. When they repeatedly stretched and relaxed the material, without breaking it, it only turned a little red.The major problem is that light can get rid of the red color. When the team shone bright light on the molecule, the broken bond was fixed, and the color disappeared.If the bright light keeps the red color from appearing, the material's warning system will be useless. Scientists still have a lot of work to do before the color-changing molecules can be used outside thelab.28．What does the passage mainly introduce?A. The collapse of an overpass in Zhuzhou, Hunan Province.B. The Sichuan earthquake.C. A material that turns red before it breaks.D. A way of preventing building from collapsing.29．The underlined words “racking their brains”in the third paragraph mean ________.A. suffering a lotB. collecting beyond imaginationC. losing a lotD. thinking very hard30．Which of the following is a WRONG statement?A. Thousands of people died from the collapse of buildings in the Sichuan earthquake because theyhadn't been warned.B. There is no building that will never collapse.C. A new material has been applied to buildings to warn people of collapse.D. A color-changing material can turn red before it breaks.31．What can we infer from the passage?A. The color-changing molecules are certain to be used outside the lab.B. There will be no collapse with the help of the color-changing material.C. There is a long way to go before the material can be applied.D. The problem caused by bright light will be solved by scientists.DMonitoring the mood of a pet dog could be used as an early warning sign that an elderly owner isstruggling to cope, a new report has claimed.Researchers placed movement sensors(探测器) on dogs to track their behaviour and identified 17 distinct activities, including chewing, barking, sitting and digging.This allowed them to map the normal behaviour of a healthy, happy dog, which means any changes can be monitored and couldindicate an issue with their owner.Nils Hammerla, part of the team from Newcastle University, said, “Humans and dogs have lived together in close relationships for thousands of years, which has led to strong emotional and socialmutual bonds.”“A dog's physical and emotional dependence on their owner means that their well-being is likely to reflect that of their owner. Any changes such as the dog being walked less often, perhaps not being fed regularly, or simply demonstrating “unhappy” behaviour could be an early indicator for families that an older relative needs help. This is the first system of its kind which allows us to remotelymonitor a dog's behaviour i n its natural setting.”The team of academics, who presented their findings at the 2013 UbiComp conference in Zurich, created a hitech, waterproof(防水的) dog collar for the study.Dr Cas Ladha, who led the study, said：“A lot of our research is focused on developing intelligent systems that can help older people to live independently for longer.But developing a system that reassures family and carers that an older relative is well without intruding on (侵犯) the individual's privacy is difficult. This is just the first step but the idea behind this research is that it would allow us to support peop le without the need for cameras.”A range of dogs was used for the study, as the team needed to map distinct behaviours that correlatedbetween different breeds.32．From the text, we know that Nils Hammerla________.A．led the study and identified 17 activities of dogsB．thinks some activities of dogs can reflect senior owners' healthC．studied the relationship between humans and animalsD．developed a hitech, waterproof dog collar33．The underlined word “reassures”in Paragraph 7 probably means________.A．protect B．comfortC．warn D．recognize34．Which of the following is an advantage of the intelligent system mentioned in the text?A．It can indicate that people aren't well.B．It can identify different activities of dogs.C．It monitors an elderly owner without disturbing his privacy.D．It lets people see the dog's behavior clearly.35．Which of the following could be the best title for the text?A．Dogs' mood can be an indicator of owners' healthB．Strong bonds between dogs and their senior ownersC．Signs that your older relative needs helpD．A special way of taking care of the old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，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

AOne day a man saw an old lady on the road. Her car broke down and she needed help. The manwent up to the old lady and said: I’m here to help you, ma’am. By the way, my name is Bryan Anderson.After he fixed the car, the old lady was about to pay him. But Bryan said no. He said if she reallywanted to pay him back, the next time she saw someone who needed help, she could give that person thehelp he or she needed.After that the lady went into a small cafe. The waitress came over. The lady noticed the waitress was nearly eight months pregnant, but she never let it change her attitude when she served her. The lady finished her meal and paid with a $100 (614 yuan) bills. She left a big fat tip. The waitress went to get the change. When she came back, she found the lady had gone and left a note on a piece of paper: “You don’t owe me anything. Somebody once helped me the way I’m helping you. If you really want to pay me back, here is what you do: Do not let the love end with you.”Under the paper were four more $100 bills. The waitress was moved.

If you’re worried about writing, here is some useful advice.How to get story ideasI read newspapers, news sites and watch TV news daily. I look for stories or topics that wouldinterest readers. I often talk to other people. I want to know what on their minds and what interests them.You never know where you will find a good story!How to write a draft (草稿)Before writing a draft, I make sure I learn all about the topic. Then, I can be ready to write. As soon as I decide what order the information should appear in, I will start my draft. I try not to care about choosing the perfect words or beautiful sentences. At this point, it’s important to get all of my ideas on the page. I can focus on making the writing better later.How to write a good introductionEvery story needs a beginning! The purpose of an introduction is to catch the reader’s attention and then keep it. Start by thinking about the four Ws in the story: who, what, where and when. They help the reader to understand what the story is about. Sometimes, I begin my stories with an interesting fact, a powerful quote (引用)or an unforgettable anecdote (奇闻).How to write a good conclusionConclusions are important, but it’s difficult to get them just right.

T he purpose of an introduction is only to catch the readers’ attention at the beginning.D. The four Ws in the story help the reader to understand what the story is about.CIn movies like Jurass ic Park, we are shocked by the giant and hard-skinned dinosaurs walking the Earth. With imagination and technology, the dinosaurs in the movie look so vivid that we believe the ones in real life were just like this. But in fact, it is not true about real life dinosaurs, the BBC reported.A few months ago, an international team of Scientists discovered 150-million-year-old dinosaur fossils in Siberia, Russia .The fossils showed that feathers were much more widespread among dinosaurs than previously thought.“The find has completely changed our vision that the skin of dinosaurs is leathery,” the lead scientist, Pascal Godefroit, of the Royal Belgian Institute of Natural Science in Brussels told BBC News.The creature called kulindadromeus zabaikalicus was about 1 meter long, with a short snout, long hind legs, short arms, and five strong fingers. This is not the first time scientists have found feathered dinosaurs. Over the past 20 years, scientists have found at least five species of feathered dinosaurs in China. “Probably that means the common ancestor of all dinosaurs had feathers,”Godefroit said. “Feathers are not only a characteristic of birds but of all dinosaurs.”What’s more, the size of some dinosaurs in the movie isn’t correct. For example, the velociraptors in Jurassic Park are bigger than humans. But the real velociraptors should be much smaller, about the size of a large chicken.Fiction is fiction. Sometimes, it scarifies truth to entertain audience. B ut this doesn’t mean you can learn nothing from them. BBC’s documentary Walking with Dinosaurs is proud of being as true to life as possible. If you are a big fan of dinosaurs, you can take it as a window to get close to the science of dinosaurs.11.What do the underlined words “ previously thought” refer to in Paragraph 1?A.

Dinosaurs in the MoviesDSince the moment Darnell Wynn was diagnosed with ovarian (卵巢的) cancer, she has refused to let the disease keep her from her love —running. This weekend she and a group of supporters gathered together and ran the Partner Re 5k route to raise awareness of ovarian cancer. She is a two-year survivor.When she first received the operation, one of her main concerns was when she could be able to run again. “I thought I’d just had an operation. It wasn’t until I went back and entered the chemotherapy（化疗）room with my son that I really understood it was cancer. Then I really broke down,” said she.When she first developed ovarian cancer, her symptoms had been back pain and lack of energy. This time, the only signs were high levels of ovarian cancer markers in her blood. “I went back to my doctor in tears, but apparently it is pretty common,” said she. Fifty percent of women with early stage ovarian cancer will have a recurrence(复发) of it, and the rate goes up for women in the later stages.The Bermuda Cancer and Health Centre is recognizing September as Ovarian Cancer Awareness Month. Wynn hopes it will help more women learn the symptoms and risk factors. “I had two sisters who had breast cancer,” she said. “The symptoms are often masked and a lot of women don’t know that if they have a close family member who had breast cancer, they are at the risk of ovarian cancer.”16. What is the purpose of the passage?A. Women should be tested in September.B. People pay no attention to ovarian cancer.C. Ovarian cancer is as horrible as breast cancer.D. Women should raise their awareness of ovarian cancer.17.How does the author describe Darnell Wynn in the passage?A. Positive.B. Sad.C. Innocent.D. Intelligent.18.Realizing she would receive chemotherapy, Darnell Wynn _______.A. thought she would recover soonB. knew the seriousness of her illnessC. believed she would have no futureD. began to doubt the operation she received19.What did Darnell Wynn think of her recurrence of ovarian cancer?A. She was surprised and angry.B. She thought more symptoms had struck her.C. She felt worried about her health.D. She guessed the doctor was making a joke 20.What can we infer by reading the passage?A. Ovarian cancer is a genetic illness in a way.B. Darnell Wynn is perfectly recovered at present.C. Most women are at the risk of ovarian cancer.D. It is common to see a recurrence of cancer in reality. 第二部分 英语知识运用（共两节，满分35分） 第一节：完形填空（共20小题；每小题1分，满分20分） 阅读下面短文，掌握其大意，然后从21—40各题所给的四个选项（A 、B 、C 和D ）中，选出最佳选项。

However, life can be 36 when you are not busy finding fault with it.Several years ago I 37 a letter from seventeen-year-old Kerry, who described herself as a world-class fault-finder, almost always 38 by things. People were always doing things that annoyed her, and 39 was ever good enough. She was highly self-critical and also found fault with her friends. She became areally40 person.Unfortunately, it took a horrible accident to change her 41 Her best friend was seriously hurt in a car crash. What made it almost 42 to deal with was that the day before the 43 , Kerry had visited her friend and had spent the whole time criticizing her 44 of boyfriends, the way she was living, the way she related to her mother, and various other things she felt she needed to 45 It wasn't until her friend was badly hurt that Kerry became 46 her habit of finding fault. Very quickly, she learned to appreciate life rather thanto 47 everything so harshly ( 刻薄) . She was able to transfer her new wisdom to other parts of her 48 as well.Perhaps most of us aren't as extreme at fault-finding, 49 when we're honest, we can besharply 50 of the world. I'm not suggesting you 51 problems, or that you pretend things are 52 than they are, but simply that you learn to allow things to be as they are— 53 most of the time, and especially whenit's not a really big 54 .Train yourself to "bite your tongue" , and with a little 55, you'll get really good at letting things go.

AOne afternoon last week, I saw three tearful children from my son's school being comforted by teachers. That morning, my 11-year-old had stomach pains, retching (干呕) into a bowl. Talking to other mothers later, I heard about other children with stomachache or difficulty sleeping the night before.What caused so much pain? Sports day. Sports day might be necessary at a highly competitive independent school, but not at a village primary school. For the children who can fly like the wind, sports day causes no problem. For those who are overweight or just not good at sport, it is a nightmare (噩梦). Even for those who enjoy running but fall halfway down the track in front of the entire school and their parents，it can prove a disaster.Why do we put our children through this annual suffering? Some may say competition is character building；or it's taking part, not winning, that's important；or that it is a tradition of school life. I just felt great pity for those children in tears or in pain.Team games at the end of sports day produced some close races, wild enthusiasm, lots of shouting—and were fun to watch. More importantly, the children who were not so fast or quick at passing the ball were hidden a little from everyone's eyes. Some of them also had the thrill of being on the winning side.I wish that sports day could be abandoned and replaced with some other less competitive event. Perhaps an afternoon of team games, with a few races for those who want them, would be less stressful for the children and a lot more fun to watch.21．What can we learn about the author's son from Paragraph 1?A．He talked with some mothers. B．He comforted his classmates.C．He had difficulty in sleeping. D．He suffered from stomachache.22．Sports day is still an annual event in this school probably because __________.A．this is an independent school B．it is a tradition of the schoolC．it helps children lose weight D．children enjoy watching sports23．What does the author think about team games?A．They should include more stressful races.B．They are acceptable to different children.C．They should be abandoned at primary schools.D．They are less fun for those who love running.24．What is the author's attitude towards sports day?A．Critical. B．Neutral.C．Positive. D．Ambiguous.BMOOCs, short f or “massive open online courses，” mark an important, possibly revolutionary, development in education. These courses are on line, free of charge, and open to anyone in the world who has a laptop and an Internet connection. Moreover, they are mainly offered by great universities like Stanford, Berkeley, Harvard and Columbia.The courses are arranged according to how difficult they are, enabling students to progress from beginners to the advanced. The courses cover not only a broad range of science subjects such as math and computer science, but also courses in social sciences and humanities. Though MOOCs are not offered for credit and degree, many students enroll(加入) in the courses for real skills or knowledge which they can put to some practical use.The format(形式) seems better than the traditional school class. The average quality of the lecturers is much higher. Besides, students can learn back and forward—that is, they can go at their own learning speed, which they can't do in a live lecture. And, more importantly, they don't have to travel anywhere to attend an online lecture. There is a problem of asking questions of the lecturer in a class of ten thousand students, but some MOOCs have solved it by allowing students to post questions on line for a vote, and only the most popular questions are put to the lecturer.In a knowledge age, lifelong learning is not confined to a traditional classroom. Students taking MOOCS are usually very clever, have work experience, and in many cases, have already developed a set of practical skills. Moreover, they also offer unique international perspectives(远景) that would be the envy of any school classroom.25．Which of the following statements is NOT true about MOOCs?A．The word “MOOCs” is short for “massive open online campuses”．B．Anyone who has a computer and an Internet connection can take MOOCs.C．MOOCs are usually offered by first-class universities in the world.D．MOOCs may be a breakthrough in the development of education.26．MOOCs seem to have an advantage over traditional school classes in that ________.A．there is a problem of asking questions in traditional classesB．students enrolling in MOOCs can get credit and degree easilyC．students can learn at their own study paceD．students can travel to many places when taking MOOCs27．The meaning of the underlined word “confined” means ________.A．extended B．developedC．limited D．advancedCPassenger pigeons (旅鸽)once flew over much of the United States in unbelievable numbers. Written accounts from the 18th and 19th centuries described flocks (群)so large that they darkened the sky for hours.It was calculated that when its population reached its highest point, there were more than 3 billion passenger pigeons—a number equal to 24 to 40 percent of the total bird population in the United States, making it perhaps the most abundant bird in the world. Even as late as 1870 when their numbers had already become smaller, a flock believed to be 1 mile wide and 320 miles (about 515 kilometers) long was seen near Cincinnati.Sadly the abundance of passenger pigeons may have been their undoing. Where the birds were most abundant, people believed there was an everlasting supply and killed them by the thousands. Commercial hunters attracted them to small clearings with grain, waited until pigeons had settled to feed, then threw large nets over them, taking hundreds at a time. The birds were shipped to large cities and sold in restaurants.By the closing decades of the 19th century，the hardwood forests where passenger pigeons nested had been damaged by Americans' need for wood, which scattered (驱散) the flocks and forced the birds to go farther north, where cold temperatures and spring storms contributed to their decline. Soon the great flocks were gone, never to be seen again.In 1897, the state of Michigan passed a law prohibiting the killing of passenger pigeons, but by then, no sizable flocks had been seen in the state for 10 years. The last confirmed wild pigeon in the United States was shot by a boy in Pike County, Ohio, in 1900. For a time, a few birds survived under human care. The last of them, known affectionately as Martha, died at the Cincinnati Zoological Garden on September 1, 1914.28. In the 18th and early 19th centuries, passenger pigeons________.A. were the biggest bird in the worldB. lived mainly in the south of AmericaC. did great harm to the natural environmentD. were the largest bird population in the US29. The underlined word “undoing” probably refers to the pigeons'________.A. escapeB. ruinC. liberationD. evolution30. What was the main reason for people to kill passenger pigeons?A. To seek pleasure.B. To save other birds.C. To make money.D. To protect crops.31. What can we infer about the law passed in Michigan?A. It was ignored by the public.B. It was declared too late.C. It was unfair.D. It was strict.DWhen different species of birds flock(聚集) together, their flight formations are determined by social dynamics both between and within species.New research from the Universities of Cambridge and Exeter reveals for the first time that, contrary to current models used to explain the movement of flocks, the differences between bird species and social relationships between individuals play a critical role in determining the dynamics of mixed-species flocks.The unified(群集) behaviour of bird flocks has puzzled scientists for hundreds of years. One naturalist from the turn of the century even suggested telepathy(心灵感应) may be involved. There have since been more logical explanations, including mathematical models that show that repeated interactions among individuals following simple rules can generate coordinated(协同的) group movements. However, these models usually rely on the assumption that individuals within groups are identical and interact independently, which may not reflect reality.Jolle Jolles, a PhD student at the University of Cambridge's Department of Zoology and author of the paper, said：“Spectacular collective behaviour can be found in a large range of animal species, and we now know that often these complex coordinated group movements may be the result of individuals following simple rules. However, rarely are the individual characteristics and social relationships within them taken into account. Our research highlights that these striking displays of group behaviour are much more complex.”By analysing high-resolution photographs of mixed flocks of rooks and jackdaws(both from the corvid family), the researchers found that rather than individuals interacting in a consistent fashion throughout the flock, interactions depended on social dynamics between the different species as well as relationships within a species.The researchers discovered that birds prefer to fly close to members of their own species, and that the larger and more dominant rooks take the lead by flying near the front of flocks. Additionally, the lifelong, monogamous(一妻一夫制的) pair bonds that are characteristic of both species seem to be reflected in flight, as birds often fly particularly close to a single, same species partner.Dr Alex Thornton, principal investigator of the Cambridge Jackdaw Project, now at the University of Exeter and author of the paper, said “Together, our findings demonstrate that to understand the structure of groups，such as bird flocks，we need to consider the characteristics and relationships of the individuals within them.”32. The underlined word “generate” means ________.A．set down B．take awayC．bring about D．give up33．According to Jolle Jolles, what are seldom considered about coordinated group movement?A．Individual characteristics and social relationship between them.B．Repeated interactions among individuals and social dynamics.C．Telepathy and social relationship between them.D．The structure of groups and the varieties of species.34．Birds may prefer to fly the closest to ________.A．the largest one B．the most dynamic oneC．the lifelong partner D．the friendly partner35．What is the main idea of the passage?A．How birds interact in simple rules.B．How birds of different feathers flock together.C．Why birds show preference to flocking.D．Why birds display the characteristics.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，选项中有两项为多余选项。

Moreover, goods online are usually sold at lower prices than in real stores. Last but not least, you can see other customers’ comments, which can help you make choices.Nevertheless, as every coin has two sides, shopping online also has disadvantages. Firstly, it is very hard to tell whether the goods are fake or not. Secondly, customers lose some pleasure of shopping because they can’t try or check the goods before buying them. Additionally, it’s not safe to pay online, because your passwords can be stolen.All in all, I think that we should have a cautious attitude towards online shopping in order to avoid wasting money or buying things of poor quality.。

AWe don’ t always get a second chance to achieve our dreams. But some people are lucky, like Matthew McConaughey. Once almost unknown, the actor has recently found himself back on the list of the best actors in Hollywood. His new movie Interstellar is just another sign that his career reinvention has been an incredible success. “The film relies on McConaughey’ s performance to hold together the emotional story of a father and his daughter against the background of space travel and the end of the world,”Forbes commented.But only years ago, the Texas native was often the butt of jokes（笑柄）about being too handsome. In 1993, after meeting with director Richard Linklater, McConaughey starred in Dazed and Confused. And a Hollywood career was born, mostly in romantic comedies. For a long time, the whole world believed McConaughey was just a handsome guy with comic talent.But McConaughey stopped starring in that type of movie, and began to use his looks differently. Slowly he built up his reputation as a serious actor. In 2013, McConaughey was offered to play an AIDS activist in Dallas Buyers Club. The role saw the normally muscular actor losing 50 pounds in order to appear sick. His performance won him an Oscar for Best Actor.The actor gave thanks to someone he has always looked up to as a hero during his Oscar acceptance speech. When he was 15, the actor said, he decided that his hero would be himself in 10 years. But 10 years later, he pushed the deadline ahead another d ecade. Then 10 years later, another decade.“My hero’ s always 10 years away,” he said. “I’ m never going to attain that. That keeps me with somebody to keep on chasing.”Or perhaps constantly chasing the chance to be his own hero has given him a second chan ce to follow his dreams.21. Why was McConaughey often the butt of jokes in his early career?A. He was limited to handsome roles.B. He was unknown to the audience.C. He played in romantic comedies.D. He was handsome and emotional.22. What role won Mc Conaughey an Oscar for Best Actor?A. A caring father.B. An AIDS activist.C. A serious buyer.D. A strong hero.23. What can we learn about McConaughey？A. He was born in Hollywood.B. He has become a hero of his own.C. He wasn’ t famous u ntil recently.D. He isn’ t content with his achievements.24. Which of the following can be the best title?A. McConaughey, a Romantic ComedianB. McConaughey, a Man Making a HitC. McConaughey, a Man Daring to changeD. McConaughey, Handsome and TalentedBShake Shack is a new kind of restaurant becoming more popular in the U.S. The restaurants are not“fast food” . They are known as“fast casual” .Observers say Americans want more choices and fresh food when choosing where and what to eat. This trend is one reason why the fast food restaurant McDonald’ s has struggled financially. In the last quarter of 2014, McDonald’ s net income dropped by about $300 million. The January earnings report brought more bad news. Worldwide sales dropped for the eighth month in a row and even more than expected. While McDonald’ s is struggling to get their customers back, ShakeShack, is doing well in making money. The New York-based burger chain had a very successful IPO, or initial public offering, of shares at the end of January. On its first day of trading, Shake Shack went from $21 a share to just under $46 a share. Being part of the “fast casual ”trend has helped Shake Shack. Other fast casual restaurants in the U.S. include Chipotle and Panera.Bonnie Riggs, a res taurant expert with NPD has studied Americans’ restaurant habits for almost 30 years. She says one reason why Americans like fast casual food is that it’ s new. It’ s creative, it’ s something different and people like to try new things. Her study shows Americans made 61 billion visits to restaurants last year. Three out of four visits were to fast food restaurants, like McDonald’ s. Fast casual is still a small percentage of restaurant visits, but it has developed fast. Just as Ms. Riggs says,“It’ s growin g by leaps and bounds, because they meet consumers’ needs. They know it’ s being prepared while they wait, it’ s fresh, quality food, good tasting food at what they say are reasonable and affordable prices.”Many Americans still like their fast food. They just are not going as often. They are finding other ways to have a meal.25. What’ s the trouble with McDonald’ s?A. Its share goes down to $21.B. Shake Shack has taken its place.C. It’ s not popular with Americans.D. Its sales and income have dropped.26. We can learn from Bonnie Riggs that Americans ________.A. don’ t like fast food any moreB. care only about the qualityC. like to try something newD. pay more restaurant visits to fast casual27. What does the underlined phrase“by leaps and bounds”in Para. 3 mean?A. Steadily.B. Rapidly.C. Slowly.D. Normally.28. Which of the following best describes fast casual?A. Fresh-made and tasty.B. High-quality and expensive.C. Farm-to-table and traditional.D. Time-consuming and special.CAnswering the Community Needs of Our CityThe Silver City Council recognizes that citizens have certain needs.

Car owners can buy the sticker and place it inside their car’ s windscreen，having set it up with vital information, such as their phone number. The slim design will include a sensor that will send a text message warning a driver about a coming fine when touched by a traffic warden. The message will ask them to move their car immediately. The driver could then type a reply for the warden using their smartphone, which will appear on the sticker’ s screen.They may choose to write something along the lines of“back in two minutes”in a bid to avoid a fine. Frankfurt-based IT consultant, Daniel Kalliontzis, came up with the idea and is raising funds on Indiegogo to put his 54 sticker into production.The smart sticker system will rely on the good will of traffic wardens and critically, a German law. The law states:“An officer has to choose the most efficie nt and inexpensive way for the car owner to remove the vehicle.”It could be cheaper for the authorities to contact the driver than to tow his car.At the time of writing, Mr Kalliontzis has raised just over 3,000 of his 50,000 goal on Indiegogo. If he manages to raise the money, the stickers will be shipped in June 2015. But it appears that car owners using the smart system could get some unnecessary warning messages, because anyone could touch the smart sticker.32. The first paragraph is intended to ________.A. highlight an awkward situationB. complain about a parking fineC. introduce the topic of the passageD. remind motorists of the parking risk33. What may probably contribute to the application of the TowStop sticker in Germany?A. The sticke r’ s low cost.B. The mass production.C. The goodwill of motorists.D. The law of the country.34. What can be concluded from the last paragraph about the TowStop Sticker?A. It takes time and efforts to put it to use.B. Only traffic wardens can touch the sticker．C. All car owners will use the sticker in 2015．D. Kalliontzis is experienced in raising money．35. What’ s the right order of the following statements according to the passage?①A message is sent by the sensor.②The sticker is put insi de a car’ s windscreen.③A traffic warden touches the smart sticker.④The sticker is set up with vital information.⑤The motorist sends a message.A.②④⑤③①B.④②③①⑤C. ④②③⑤①D.②④①③⑤第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文的内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。
