Rule 1
When responding to any adult, you must answer by saying “Yes ma’am” or “No, sir.” Just nodding your head is not acceptable.
Because I grew up in rural North Carolina, this rule comes 36 to me, and it seems the obvious choice to come first. If you want children to respect you, you have to let them know 37 . Simply telling them you want them to address you by saying “sir” lets them know 38 you expect them to treat you. I also tell my
students it’s a very useful tool when 39 with adults, and furthermore it
also 40 handy for any adult interacting with another adult. Case in point: I was 41 the phone recently with the phone company discussing the inaccuracies(差错) of my 42 . The lady I spoke to was not 43 and seemed annoyed. 44 , in the midst of the conversation, I threw in a “yes, ma’am,” and her entire 45 changed. She became far more helpful and 46 to deal with, and she 47 cutting my bill in half.
Some of my students in Harlem were to be 48 for a chance to attend a
high-rated junior high school. The school only had thirty openings for the following year, and twelve of my students were 49 the many kids across the city who applied for the spots. I practiced what the interview would be 50 with my students, and one main thing I stressed was, “51 you say ‘yes ma’am’ or ‘no sir’ no matter what!” Weeks after the interviews, I was delighted to hear th at all twelve of my students had been 52 . When I talked with the admissions director at the school, the main 53 he made over and over was how 54 my students were in their interviews. It seemed like just such a simple thing to do, but it gets 55 .

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
将该项涂黑。

A
I entered high school having read hundreds of books. But I was not a good reader. Merely bookish, I lacked a point of view when I read. Rather, I read in order to get a point of view. I searched books for good expressions and sayings, pieces of information, ideas, themes—anything to enrich my thought and make me feel educated. When one of my teachers suggested to his sleepy tenth-grade English class that a person could not have a "complicated idea" until he had read at least two thousand books, I heard the words without recognizing either its irony (嘲讽) or its very complicated truth. I merely determined to make a list of all the books I had ever read. Strict with myself, I included only once a title I might have read several times. (How, after all, could one read a book more than once?) And I included only those books over a hundred pages in length. (Could anything shorter be a book?) There was yet another high school list I made. One day I came across a newspaper article about an English professor at a nearby state college. The article had a list of the "hundred most important books of Western Civilization." "More than anything else in my life," the professor told the reporter with finality , " these books have made me all that I am ." That was the kind of words I couldn’t ignore. I kept the list for the several months it took me to read all of the titles. Most books, of course, I hardly understood. While reading Plato's The Republic, for example, I needed to keep looking at the introduction of the book to remind myself what the text was about. However, with the special patience and superstition (迷信) of a schoolboy, I looked at every word of the text. And by the time I reached the last word, pleased, I persuaded myself that I had read The Republic, and seriously crossed Plato off my list.
56. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
A. The writer thought it was impossible for one to read two thousand books.
B. While at high school, the writer had plans for reading.
C. The writer only read books no more than 100 pages.
D. The writer thought the teacher was not being serious about the suggestion of reading.
57. The underlined phrase "with finality" most probably means ____________.
A. firmly
B. immediately
C. simply
D. pleasantly
58. The writer's purpose in mentioning The Republic is to________.
A. explain why it was included in the list
B. describe why he seriously crossed it off the list
C. show that he read the books blindly though they were hard to understand
D. prove that he understood most of it because he had looked at every word
59. The writer provides two book lists to ________.
A. show how he developed his point of view
B. tell his reading experience at high school
C. introduce the two persons' reading methods
D. explain that he read many books at high school
B
As hand-held devices such as smartphones are becoming more common, users are reporting some new physical problems. Florida chiropractor Dean Fishman began noticing an increased number of patients talking about neck and shoulder pain. He discovered these symptoms were due to the overuse of hand-held devices, particularly the action of bending the neck, and then coined the term “Text Neck.”As if the painful symptoms weren’t bad enough, Fishman warns that an untreated case of Text Neck could lead to permanent spinal(脊椎) damage.
Other doctors have warned about “iPad Hand,” a condition that occurs when people use tablets like the iPad for hours at a time. Most people use their left hand to support the tablet and their right hand to tap or scroll. Doing this for long periods without changing positions can result in severe joint pain.
In order to avoid or reduce the possibility of getting Text Neck or iPad Hand, use the following basic ergonomic(人体工学的) principles:
Avoid awkward positioning. Don’t strain your neck, and stay aware of how you are positioned in relation to the device. Make sure that both your neck and shoulders are relaxed and that you aren’t leaning over for a long period of time.
Take frequent breaks when using any kind of mobile device. Many doctors recommend that users change their position every 15 minutes.
When using a tablet, use a case that can support the device on a table or your lap at a comfortable viewing angle.
Along with a case, use a separate keyboard with your tablet. This will be more comfortable since you’ll be resting both hands on the keyboard. And since you won’t be holding the tablet, you’ll be less likely to experience hand or arm pain.
60. What kind of product for hand-held devices does the writer discuss?
A. One for recording.
B. One for charging.
C. One for telephoning.
D. One for typing.
61. Which of the following is closest in meaning to the underlined word “coined”(Para1)?
A. cashed
B. created
C. changed
D. completed
62. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
A. If you are holding an iPad for long periods, it could cause spinal damage.
B. Text Neck symptoms include long-term damage in the back.
C. You are advised to lean over in relation to the device.
D. You should rest your hands on the keyboard at times.
63. In which magazine would you most likely find this article?
A. Personal Finance
B. Science Fiction Monthly
C. Mind and Body
D. Smartphone World

It was an international drug dealing case, one that
involved a lot of money and a lot of violence. Agents
who had entered the organization had worn wires and
collected evidence for years. A conviction(法庭判决)
depended on an accurate translation of their tape
recordings. “Five languages were involved, “says Liz Elting, 44, one of the owners of TransPerfect, the translation company chosen for the job. “The slightest mistake could mean the criminals would go free.”
When Elting started her business 18 years ago with Phil Shawe, both were attending New York University’s Stern School of Business. Neither realized just how many situations would require their services. TransPerfect’s 4,000 linguists(通晓外语的人) cover more than 100 languages.
Getting Ahead with Liz Elting
What inspired you to start TransPerfect?
When I was eight, my dad bought a KFC in Portugal. Unfortunately, the Portuguese didn’t want anything American. They thought my dad was a CIA spy! That taught me how fast things can change. I’ve studied in Spain and worked in Venezuela. This business is the perfect combination of my love for languages, cultures and business.
Is the staff multilingual?
Many are. I speak French and Spanish. My partner, Phil, who is American, likes to say he speaks English on a good day.
What languages are requested most often?
Spanish and Japanese. Chinese, Middle Eastern, Indic(South Asia), and Eastern Europeans are on the rise.
How difficult is it to manage such a diverse workforce（员工团队）?
Our challenge is to be culturally appropriate in every country. When we hand our year-end bonuses in the US, for example, we have to remember that in India, bonuses are given in the fall.
Any advice for someone starting a business?
Get started before you have kids. In the beginning, I didn’t know how to do this business on the side. I wasn’t married, didn’t have kids, and wasn’t concerned about balancing my work and personal life. Now, with strong managers in place, I can spend more time with my family (husband Michael Burlant and sons Zachary, nine and Jacob, seven), traveling and playing baseball.
67. What is the purpose of the first paragraph?
A. To report on an international drug dealing case.
B. To encourage people to start a business before they have kids.
C. To present the importance of learning foreign languages.
D. To introduce Liz Elting and her company TransPerfect.
68. What does the underlined word “wires” mean in the passage?
A. A type of clothes costing a lot of money.
B. A piece of equipment designed to record messages.
C. Thin metal worn to protect yourself against violence.
D. A organization symbol made of thin metal.
69. TransPerfect is ______________.
A. a company that offers international legal services
B. one which has branches in countries all over the world
C. one whose staff all have to speak several languages.
D. a company whose services are in great demand.
70. It can be inferred that _______________.
A. Liz learned that love is the answer to problems of cultural misunderstanding
B. Liz started her company with a schoolmate at the age of 18.
C. The success is simply a little beyond Liz and her partner’s expectations
D. Liz and Phil are now strong managers with rich experience.

At the top of a three-storey brick house Sue
and Johnsy had their studio. In November a cold,
unseen stranger, whom the doctors called
Pneumonia(肺炎), touched one here and there
with its icy fingers. Johnsy was struck down, and
she lay, hardly moving, on her bed looking
through the window at the blank side of the next
brick house.
One morning the busy doctor invited Sue into
the hallway(走廊).
“She has one chance in ten,”he said, “And
that chance is for her to want to live. She has
made up her mind that she’s not going to get well.
I will do all that I can. But whenever my patient
begins to count the carriages in her funeral procession(队列), I subtract 50 percent from her chance to live.”
After the doctor had gone, Sue went into the workroom and cried. Then she came into Johnsy’s room with her drawing board, whistling.
Johnsy lay hardly moving with her face toward the window. Sue stopped whistling, thinking she was asleep.
She arranged her board and began a drawing. As Sue was sketching, she heard a low sound. She went quickly to the bedside.
Johnsy’s eyes were open wide. She was looking out the window and counting backward.
“Twelve,” she said, and a little later “eleven”; and then “ten”, and “nine”; and then “eight” and “seven”, almost together.
Sue looked out the window. What was there to count? There was only the blank side of the brick house twenty feet away. An old ivy vine(常春藤) climbed halfway up the brick wall. Its branches clung(紧紧缠着), almost bare, to the bricks.
“What is it, dear?” asked Sue.
“Six,” said Johnsy, in almost a whisper. “They’re falling faster now. Three days ago there were almost a hundred. There goes another one. There are only five left now”.
“Five what, dear? Tell me.”
“Leaves. On the ivy vine. When the last one falls, I must go, too. Didn’t the doctor tell you?”
“Oh, I never heard of such nonsense,” said Sue. “What have old ivy vine leaves to do with your getting well? Why, the doctor told me this morning that your chances for getting well real soon were ten to one! Try to take some soup now.”
“There goes another. No, I don’t want any soup. I want to see the last one fall before it gets dark. Then I’ll go , too.”
“Johnsy, dear,” said Sue, bending over her, “will you promise me to keep your eyes closed, and not look out the window until I’m done working? I need the light or I would draw the shade down.”
“Tell me as soon as you have finished,” said Johnsy, closing her eyes, “because I want to see the last one fall. I’m tired of waiting. I want to turn loose my hold on everything and go sailing down, down, just like one of those poor, tired leaves.”
71.By saying “Pneumonia touched one here and there” (in the first paragraph), the author means that _________.
A.some people were affected by the illnesses of others
B.pneumonia caused damage to the ivy vine
C.two people became ill
D.many people came down with the illness
72. How did Johnsy feel about the situation during the passage?
A. confident
B. hopeless
C. tired
D. curious
73.We can learn from the passage that _____________.
A.Sue came into the room whistling perhaps because she thought Johnsy might
like the music.
B.Johnsy’s life was compared to the carriages in a funeral procession
C.Sue told a lie to Johnsy about the doctor’s words
D.Johnsy wanted to know about the falling ivy leaves to meet her own curiosity
74.The underlined word “subtract”in the third paragraph probably means “________”.
A. reduce
B. hope
C. add
D. doubt
75.The passage is probably taken out of ______________.
A. a newspaper
B. a novel
C. a medical report
D. a girl’s diary

书面表达：
As I am graduating, I’d like to look back on my unforgettable years here.
In the past three years, I’ve benefited a lot from my school education, which helps me grow into an independent thinker and an efficient learner, as well as preparing for the future. However, during this period, I was too concerned about my academic performance to get actively involved in the extra-curriculum activities. That left me a little regretful and will always remind me to better myself in an all-round way.
Looking ahead, I think the biggest challenge in my college life will be adapting to a life away from my parents and taking care of myself. But I’m full of confidence that I’ll get used to it soon and move on.
I also want to make some suggestions to you, Senior 1 and 2 students. Time and tide wait for no man. We teenagers should make the most of our valuable time at high school and realize our full potential.
Good luck to all of you!
Yours
