共两节,共20小题,每小题1.5分,满分30分)第二题阅读理解(每小题2分,满分40分)第一节(共15小题;每小题2分,满分30分)阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A 、B 、C 和 D )中,选出最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
AYuoki, a restaurant in Germany, is not your everyday all-you-can-eat buffet (自助餐). For starters, there isn't an actual buffet to fill your plate. I nstead, customers are seated at a table and provided with iPa ds which they can use to order up to five small dishes every t en minutes. They can eat as much as they want for 120 minut es, but having the food served at short intervals (间隔) allows diners to constantly assess how hungry they are an d order accordingly, preventing food waste. Also, the owner, Luan Guoyu, believes, “our eyes are bigger than our stomach”, so not being able to see the cooked food at the buffet prevents people from ordering more food than they can actual ly eat.But Luan Guoyu's most effective way of fighting food waste, a nd the onethat has attracted media attention, is his €1 ($1.15) fine for fo od still left on the plate. “It’s called ‘ all-you-can-eat’” he says, adding that the extra charge is not meant to inc rease his income, but to act as a warning against wasting foo d.Luan Guoyu's system is unique in the state of Baden-Wurttemberg, but not in Germany. Okinii, a Japanese-style restaurant in Dusseldorf, has also been charging custom er, the same € 1 tax for unfinished food on their plates since 2 013.With so many people living on the edge of their nations, an d food waste becoming a serious problem in developed count ries, it will be interesting to see if more restaurants will start ca rrying out the “eat up or pay up” policy. Even if they give the money from this fine to charity, it would still help them to save money in dealing with waste, so it's a win for everyone.21. What does the underlined word “assess” in Paragraph 1 probably mean?A. Doubt.B. Realize.C. Judge.D. Compare.22. What will Luan Guoyu do when people can’t finish the food on their plates?A. He will charge them extra money.B. He will advise them to eat up the food.C. He will ask them to take the food away.D. He will warn them to order less food next time.23. What is the text mainly about?A. Various German restaurants.B. The seriousness of food waste.C. Secrets of managing a restaurant.D. Special ways to fight food waste.24. What does the author think of the “eat up or pay up” policy ?A. Unfair.B. Funny.C. Reasonable.D. Doubtful.BI had dressed quite nicely for my first day as a student at St. A nne's College of Further Education. In celebration of this newbeginning, I had changed my unusual clothes to formal clothin g.Like many young people my age, I was under the impression t hat the best way to show your personality was by wearing the kind of clothing that my mother considered was not fit to be se en in public. But for my first day as a student I had made an ef fort to look what my mother called ‘respectable’.There were fifteen of us, sitting in the theatre hall, while the h ead of the drama department, Mr. Wilson, gave us a warm we lcoming speech. To my horror (恐惧), he then invited us to say why we had decided to do a dra ma course. I had no idea what I would say. The truth was that although I had a taste for unusual clothing, I was painfully sh y.My worry grew as it came closer to my turn. One by one, the new students excitedly explained their reasons. Then it was th e turn of a girl who I hadn't really noticed until that moment be cause I was too busy thinking about what I would say. ‘My na me’s Tracy and I'm from Blackburn’, she said, and then added no further information.Everyone smiled politely in silence but I was impressed at her bravery in saying almost nothing even under pressure (压力). I relaxed, knowing that you could get away with saying solittle about yourself. It gave me confidence.After Mr. Wilson at long last let us out of the hall to go to lunch , I managed to find the courage to go up to Tracy. She looked very unfriendly. Taking a deep breath, I introduced myself. To my surprise, she looked up at me and gave me a very bright, sweet smile. That was twenty-seven years ago, and although we never did become famous stars, we're still best friends.25. Why did the author dress nicely for her first day at college ?A. She felt a need to dress properly.B. She wanted to fit in with the other students.C. She was under pressure from her mother.D. She wanted to look like a great star.26 . Why did the author feel nervous? .A. Because she had never spoken in publicB. Because it was her turn to start firstC. Because she didn't know what to talk aboutD. Because the other students were so excited27. What does the underlined word "It" in Paragraph 5 refer to ?A. Tracy also seemed extremely worried.B. Tracy hadn' t said very much.C. The other students reacted politely to Tracy.D. All atten tion was on Tracy.CIn an effort to discourage people from using plastics, scientist s have been hard at work inventing alternative packaging pro ducts.The idea of using seaweed(海草) to make eco-friendly water bottles has been around for a few years. Recen tly, Ari Jonsson took his invention—a water bottle made from red seaweed—to show off at a festival. The bottles will only hold their shape as long as they are filled. As soon as these bottles are empty they will begin to break down, though they would be perfectly safe to eat. Ari Jonsson's bottles are a step closer to a widely used alternative to the current plastic ones.The eatable water container is not the only product to add to o ur image of the future. Narayana Pessapaty has also created eatable spoons. After the success of his spoons, Mr. Pessapa ty is ready to expand and introduce forks and chopsticks to hi s menu. His aim is to largely reduce the amount of plastic was te, which is a huge problem for waste sites all over the world,It is a product that may take up t0 500 years to break down, a nd recycling companies worldwide are struggling to deal with i t.Aside from the obvious benefits to the environment, this new packaging is also cheap to produce and therefore cheap to bu y. Even better is the fact that similar eatable cutlery can be m ade at home, possibly a science project for children or just fun with friends. Why not experiment and create your own recipe s?28. Why do scientists invent alternative packaging products?A. To make people's life more convenient.B. To show off th eir inventive talents.C. To change the way we picnic outside.D. To reduce the amount of plastic waste.29. What makes Art Jonsson's water bottles eco-friendly?A. They can be made at home.B. They are cheap to produce and buy.C. They will hold their shape when they are filled.D. They will break down themselves when empty.30. What do Ari and Narayana's inventions have in common?A. They are convenient to carry.B. They are safe to eat.C. They can be used for a short time.D. They are heavier than plastics.31. What can be inferred from this passage?A. Home-made eatable cutlery is likely to be popular.B. Eatable cutlery will completely replace plastics in the near f uture.C. No recycling companies can break down plastic waste.D. It's unsafe for individuals to invent eatable cutlery at home. DTwo men were sitting together in a plane. They were on a lon g journey. One of the men was a businessman. The other wa s a farmer. They sat without talking for a while, then the farme r said, “Let’s do something to pass the time.”“What do you want to do?” the businessman asked. “We can ask each other riddles.” The farmer said, “you star.”“Let’s ma ke the rules first,” the businessman said. “That’s not fair.

Afunny games,1.You can send your children to Captain Goodfellow to learn dances ___________.A. on Sunday afternoonB. at 9:30 every dayC. at 10:00 a.m. on SaturdayD. at noon before 5:00 p.m.2.

You can probably eat Chinese, Italian, and Arab food ________________.A. at the front entrance of the City HallB. at the ball gameC. at 8:00 p.m.D. at the Central Park on SaturdayBIn March 1987, I started a new magazine called Creating Excellence. It was a very proud moment for me. I’d worked hard for over a year to create it, and the pre miere issue (首次发刊) was a real success.Shortly after we had mailed 25,000 copies, I received one in the mail. But this one wasn’t as beautiful as the ones we’d sent out. It was marked in red ink correcting the grammatical errors (语法错误) in it. A talented editor had read it carefully and found more errors than I could have imagined.I felt abashed. A magazine called Creating Excellence should be perfect in its content (内容). The stories were good, but the errors this woman had found showed that our magazine was far from being excellent.At first, I was not satisfied with my editor for not having avoided the mistakes, and dissatisfied with the woman who seemed to have taken pleasure in pointing them out. Later, I was dissatisfied with myself for not having employed a better editor. Then I realized that I had to face up to my mistake. I called the talented editor.I thanked her for taking the time to read our magazine so carefully. Painful as it was, I accepted responsibility for it.Then I offered her the job of editing our magazine. The result was a great improvement in it; we could now be very proud of our magazine.From this I learnt that an upsetting moment can be an opportunity to see the truth, and it can help to prevent one making the same mistakes, and to make "excellence"a reality.5. From the first paragraph we learn that _____.A. the author put little effort into her first magazineB. the author’s job was selling magazinesC. the author was very satisfied with her workD. the author experienced a total failure6. What does the underlined word "abashed" in the third paragraph mean?A. Excited.B. Embarrassed.C. Interested.D. Exhausted.7. What do we learn about the woman who found the errors in the magazine?A. She was causing trouble on pur pose.B. She liked pointing out the errors of others.C. She contributed a lot to the success of the premiere issue.D. She ended up joining the magazine team.8. What do we learn from this passageA. Pride is the biggest enemy of success.B. Success is behind many failures.C. Pointing out others’ mistakes can help you find a job.D. Accepting responsibility for one’s errors can lead to real excellence.CTom was a clever boy, but his parents were poor, so he had to work in his spare time and during his holidays to pay for his education. In spite of this, he managed to get to the university, but it was so expensive to study there that during the holiday he found it necessary to get two jobs at the same time so as to make enough money to pay for his studies.One summer he managed to get a job in a butcher’s shop (肉店) during the day-time, and another in a hospital at night. In the shop, he learnt to cut meat quite nicely, so the butcher often left him to do all the serving(服务) while he went to the back room to do the accounts. In the hospital, on the other hand, he was , of course, allowed to do the simplest jobs, like helping to lift people and to carry them from one part of the hospital to another. Both at the butcher’s sh ops and at the hospital, Tom had to wear white clothes.One evening at the hospital, Tom had to help to carry a woman from her bed to the place where she was to have an operati on. The woman was already feeling frightened at the thought of the operating before he came to get her, but when she saw Tom, that finished her.“No! No!” she cried. “Not the butcher! I won’t be operated on the butcher!” and fainted away(昏厥).9. Tom made enough money by ________.A. studying in the universityB. working in a butcher’s shopC. doing two jobsD. cutting meat well10. Tom was a student, but at the same time he was ____.A. a butcher and a doctorB. a manager and a doctorC. an assistant(助手)D. a manager11. The woman patient recognized Tom because __________ .A. he was wearing white clothesB. he had sold meat to herC. he was now working in the hospitalD. he wa s going to operate on her12. when she saw Tom, that finished her, the sight of Tom_____.A. plunged her into deep sorrowB. made her decide not to have the operationC. broke her heartD. took all her strength and courage awayDIn a great many cities, hundreds of people ride bikes to work every day in New York, some bike riders have even formed a group called Bike for a Better City. They declare that if more people rode bikes to work, there would be fewer automobiles in the downtown part of the city and so less dirty air from car engines.For several years, this group had been trying to get the city government to help bike riders. For example, they want the city to draw special lanes(车道) for bikes on some of the main streets, because when bike riders must use the same lanes as cars there are accidents. Bike for a Better City feels that if there were special lanes, more people would use bikes.But no bike lanes have been drawn. Not everyone thinks it is a good idea—they say it will slow traffic. Some store owners on the main streets don’t like the idea—they say that if there is less traffic, they will have less business.The city government has not yet decided what to do. It wants to keep everyone happy. On weekends, Central Park—the largest place open ground in New York—is closed to cars, and the roads may be used by bikes only.13. In New York, a group of bike riders__________________.A. are keeping practicing for healthB. have no cars of their ownC. are complaining there are not enough busesD. are trying to settle the problem of air pollution14. The bike riders suggest that____________.A. bike should be used instead of carsB. bike lanes should be drawnC. fewer buses or cars should be usedD. the number of special lanes should be decreased15.

They order clothes and they don‟t fit. People get very unhappy.”Wong and her design partner, Xuaner “Cecilia” Zhang, are Team White Mirror, creators of what they call a “virtua l (虚拟)fitting room”. Their goal is simple and consumer-friendly: to let online clothing shoppers have a perfect fit and a perfect look when shopping every time. Both women are from China, Wong from Hong Kong and Zhang from Beijing. They both order most of their clothing online. They got the idea from their own experience as consumers and from listening to the complaints of friends and relatives. “They say, …The color is wrong‟ or …I got t he right size but it still does not fit.‟ We want to make it like you‟re in the store trying on the clothes,” Zhang said.Using a Kinect developed by Microsoft for use with its Xbox 360 video game player, Zhang scans Wong and turns her image(影像) into, in effect, a virtual model, keeping Wong‟s dimensions (尺寸), and even her skin and hair color. “We put the clothes on the shopper‟s 3-D body models and show how they look when they are dressed,” Wong said. So far, Wong and Zhang have adapted the software to show dresses and shirts, and they are now working on shorts.Asked if she thought men as well as women might be interested in using their virtual fitting room, Wong said, “I think their wives will care about this, so it will also be important t o men.”5. Why is shopping conveniently online for clothes a disadv antage?A. Students may easily get addicted to it.B. It causes shoppers to waste too much money.C. It attracts more online clothing shoppers.D. Clothes bought online may not fit.6. Wong and Zhang got the idea to design a virtual fitting room from ____.A. their shopping experiencesB. a program at their universityC. some shop-owners‟ complaintsD. the Xbox 360 video game player7. Which of the following shows the process of using the virtual fitting room?A. scanning -- trying on clothes -- getting imagesB. trying on clothes -- getting models -- scanningC. trying on clothes -- getting images -- scanningD. scanning -- getting models --trying on clothes8. What did Wong think of her virtual fitting room?A. It is perfectly developed.B. It will have its market share(占有率).C. It is limited to women shoppers.D. It is like a kind of video game player.CMy parents moved to Mississippi when my brother and I were small children, and we were separated from our Oklahoma grandparents by some 600 miles. This geographic distance allowed us to only visit our grandparents once a year, either at Christmas or during summer vacation.Most of my classmates lived near their grandparents, and I would routinely hear stories of extended families(大家庭)regularly spending time with one another, fishing at “grandpa‟s” house or going over to “grandma‟s” for her famous fried chicken. We were disappointed that we did not get to spend more time with our grandparents, but our love for them remained deep and strong.We always expected a road trip to Oklahoma. We would count the days, and when Day I came, the entire family would pile into the car at four o‟clock in the morning. Crossing the Mississippi River into Louisiana, the landscapes (风景)changed. Crossing the Red River in Oklahoma, we were in a foreign world.Every trip to see my grandparents can‟t be without bringing delight. We jumped out of the car in their driveway to be met with bear hugs. My grandparents wanted to know everything about their grandchildren, and we would sit for hours and tell story after story. Grandma had a meal planned, and you could bet she fixed her grandsons‟ favorite foods. Of course the best part of the visit was that we were able to do whatever we wanted without punishment from our grandparents. Grandma and Grandpa always had presents for us, neat scenic trips planned and lovely surprises, such as the time we got to go to a local restaurant and eat the world‟s largest hamburger.9. T he family don‟t visit the grandparents often because _________.A. they live far away from each otherB. they seldom have a vacationC. they are all busy with their workD. they have a bad attitude to them10. Whenever the author and his brother met their grandparents, they ________.A. shared cooking skills with each otherB. found they were in a foreign worldC. were all full of great excitementD. seemed not to be familiar with each other11. What can we infer f rom the author‟s story?A. Distance leads to the most beautiful scene.B. Physical separation (实际的分离) hurts the heart deeply.C. Distance can‟t break the bond (纽带) of love.D. Family life is filled with love and understanding.DVacation is a time for refreshment. In work, we are often called to think. Sometimes, it’s good to give our brains a rest. Without a break, we may not be able to perform up to our potential. This can be a problem, not only for the employee, but for the employer as well. “The main benefit of vacation is for the worker to come back energized(有活力的),” says Weaver. “If they haven’t had a break, then they‟re not coming back with new energy. They haven‟t had a chance to step back and get perspective(远景), and come back with renewed enthusiasm(热情).”Long working hours without a break, insecurity(不安)about one’s job, and other work-related worries can lead to burnout and stress. Humans can usually adapt to pressure, but not for a limitless amount of time.“It is a problem of relating good workers and having them loyal to the firm while they‟re there,” says David Maume, PhD, professor of sociology at the University of Cincinnati. He says burnout can also affect employees‟ productivity, creativity, and effectiveness.In addition, high levels of stress are likely to be precursors (前兆) to depression, which can hit both the employer and employee’s pocketbook. Even people who manager to remain productive at work can have problems. If they’re always at work, then they’re not with their family and friends. If they’re working while on vacation, for the time that they’re on the job, they’re not really present.An unbalanced emphasis on work can strain family and social life. When you come up forair, you may see that you’re alone, or that your r elationships have gone on without you.12. The underlined word “there” in the fourth paragraph probably refers to ________.A. the vacationB. the universityC. the companyD. the home13. What‟s the main benefit of a vacation?A. The worker can step back and get more excitedB. The worker can come back with new energy.C. The worker can adapt to pressure much better.D. The manager can be more creative.14. When a worker is always at work, he is likely to get more and more__________ .A. activeB. energeticC. skillfulD. absent-minded15. Which of the following is the best title of the text?A. Why the workers need new energy.B. How to deal with the daily pressure.C. How to spend the vacation effectively.D. Why the workers need a vacation.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。

Families and friends gather to eat and give thanks fo r their blessing.Thanksgiving Day is really a harvest festival. This is why it is c elebrated in late fall, after the crops are in. But one of the first thanksgivings in America had nothing to do with a good harve st. On December 4, 1619, the Pilgrims from England landed n ear what is now Charles City, Virginia. They knelt down and th anked God for their safe journey across the Atlantic.The first New England Thanksgiving did celebrate a rich harv est. The Pilgrims landed at what is now Plymouth, Massachus etts, in 1620. They had a difficult time and the first winter was cruel. Many of the Pilgrims died. But the next year, they had a good harvest. So Governor Bradford declared a three-day feast(盛宴). The Pilgrims invited Indian friends to join them for their s pecial feast. Everyone brought food.In time, other colonies(殖民地)began to celebrate a day of thanksgiving. But it took years bef ore there was a national Thanksgiving Day. During the Civil War, Sarah Josepha Hale persuade d Abraham Lincoln to do something about it. He proclaimed (宣布)the last Thursday of November 1863 as a day of thanksgiving. Today, Americans celebrate this happy harvest festival on th e fourth Thursday in November. Canadians celebrate Thanks giving Day in much the same way as their American neighbou rs.

They have been handed down thro ugh generations (代) among groups, social classes, etc. Customs can be described as ways of doing t hings. They are particularly (特别) strong in social practices on the occasions (场合) of births, marriages and deaths.In China, these days, some people in cities are learning from Western customs. For example, some brides dress in the long white dress that is usual bridal wear in many Western countri es.Every people (民族) has special customs for New Year. The Han people have many interesting Spring Festival customs. And now, quite a number of people living in the cities have followed the Western customs of sending New Year greeting cards for January 1st.

S he refused, so he turned away sadly and said he must do wha t he had made up his mind to do.At this word, the lady was greatly frightened for she was afrai d for his life. So she called him back and gave him a dollar. T he beggar took the money, put it into his pocket, and thanked her a great deal. “You have saved me from a terrible fate,” he said.

Their cap sule (太空舱) is designed to be capable of orbiting for a whole week, the spokesperson said. “For the first time, astronauts will enter a nd live in the orbital module(舱) of the spacecraft to do scientific experiments,” said a s tatement from CAST.

第Ⅰ卷( 共85分)第一部分阅读理解(共两节,共40分)第一节(共15小题,每小题2分,共30分.)AMobile phones are in the hands of many kids and teenagers . However ,are they really necessary at school? Here are the pr os and cons(赞成和反对的理由).PROSThey can get in touch when necessary . The main benefit of h aving a phone is that your child can get in touch with you whe never they need to . This allows you to feel they are safe. They can ring the emergency services if necessary. If your chi ld is in immediate danger, they can use their phone to call not only you but the emergency services. This is of great benefit a nd could potentially save your child’s life.Mobile phones can be turned off or on to silent. As long as yo ur child remembers to do this their phone won’t cause a distra ction(分心) in class, but they will have a way to contact you if they nee d to. Giving them a standard rather than a smartphone will als o reduce the risk of distraction.CONSThe latest smartphones can almost double as a computer . It means they offer far more of a distraction to kids than they us ed to. Nowadays, children can not only text and make calls wi th their mobiles, they can also play games, surf the Internet a nd listen to music.

Teams of research ers drove the turtles all the way from Massachusetts to Florid a, where they were put back into the warm waters of the Atlantic Ocean.The turtles’ story began last fall, when a large number of them got stuck near Cape Cod in . These tough turtles had to be n ursed back to good health for about six months before they co uld swim in the sea again.Sea turtles generally live south of the Carolinas in the Atlantic Ocean. But during the summer months, they take a ride on th e Gulf Stream-----a strong ocean current of warm water that runs north along th e east coast. The Gulf Stream brings the turtles plenty of tasty food to eat.When summer turns to fall, sea turtles head south again as th e water turns colder. That’s because sea turtles are cold-blooded. That means they cannot produce their own body hea t. They need the seawater to provide them with heat.Some turtles don’t get to warmer waters fast enough. When th e waters of the northern Atlantic turn cold in the fall, many turtl es can’t stand the cold. They can not move and become unab le to find their way. The turtles can drift only where the wind a nd tides take them.Many of these turtles are washed up on the shore near Cape Cod. Last year , 242turtles were rescued there.Scientists are unsure why so many needed to be helped. The turtles spent the winter getting better at aquariums along the east coast.As the weather grew warmer, 52 turtles were ready to return t o their natural habitat. It was a great success for the turtles an d the people who nursed them back to health.“It’s an exciting day for all these organizations,” said Connie Merigo of the New England Aquarium.“This is what we work f or. These are endangered species. So every turtle that gets b ack out in the wild and has a potential to contribute to the pop ulation is really important.”4.How do the sea turtles come to the northern Atlantic?A.

They don’t listen be cause they already know it all. I was lucky: I became a pilot in 1970, almost ten years before I graduated from medical school. I didn’t realize then, but becoming a pil ot makes me a better surgeon(外科医生). I loved flying. As I flew bigger, faster planes, and in worse weather, I learned about crew resource management (机组管理资源),or CRM, a new idea to make flying safer. It means that cre w members should listen and speak up for a good result, rega rdless of positions.I first read about CRM in 1980. Not long after that , an attending doctor and I were flying in bad weather. The controller ha d us turn too late to get our landing ready. The attending doct or was flying ; I was safety pilot. He was so busy because of t he bad turn, he had forgotten to put the landing gear(起落架) down. He was a better pilot--and my boss ---so it felt unusual to speak up. But I had to: Our lives were in d anger. I put aside my uneasiness and said,“Weneed to put the landing gear down now!” That was my first rea l lesson in the power of CRM, and I have used it in the operati ng room ever since.CRM requires that the pilot\surgeon encourage others to sp eak up. It further requires that when opinions are from the opp osite, the doctor does not overreact, which might prevent fellow doctors from voicing opinions again. So when I’m in the operating room,I ask for ideas and help fr om others. Sometimes they are not willing to speak up. But I h ope that if I continue to encourage them, someday someone will keep me from “landing gear up”.8.What does the author say about doctors in general?A.They are unwilling to take advice.B.They like flying by the mselves.C.They pretend to be good pilots.D.They are quick learne rs of CRM.9.The author deepened his understanding of the power of CR M when____.A.his boss operated on a patientB. he was in charge of a flying taskC. his boss landed the plane too lateD. he saved the plane by speaking up10. In the last paragraph “landing gear up” probably means__ _____.A. following flying requirementsB. making a mistake that may cost livesC.overreacting to difference opinionsD.listening to what fell ow doctors say11 Which of the following can be the best title for the text?A.CRM:A New Way to Make Flying SafeB.Flying Makes Me a Better DoctorC.The Making of a Good pilotD.
