We grow wheat and other crops on our farm. Let me tell you what happened here last week.Until last week, our plants had been growing well because we’ve had a lot of rain. Then the locusts came. They flew towards our farm in a swarm(一大群), which contained millions of locusts and covered an area of several square kilometers. The locusts came from an area far away. They had flown through the night.Early the next morning, I went outside with Dad. We looked at the swarm in the sky. I had never seen so many animals together at a time. Dad said there was nothing we could do for the crops. I wasn’t afraid, because locusts don’t hurt people.The swarm landed in our fields, and the locusts ate most of our wheat. We lost a lot of our harvest. Then the locusts flew to other farms in our area and ate some of those crops, too.I didn’t go to school that day, because the swarm of locusts made it hard for drivers to see on the roads and the school bus didn’t run. Instead, I helped Mum and Dad on the farm.The locust plague(灾祸) is over now, and the locusts have all gone. Mum and Dad said we must get the damaged fields ready for the new plants.

When anxiety(焦虑）kicks in, students cancompletely lose concentration, leading to poor scores. But is there any solution to suchstress?The key to reducing test anxiety is writing. According to a recent report in thejournal Science, taking a few minutes before an exam to write about all those fears could help students perform better.The study was conducted by Professor Sian L. Beilock, from the University of Chicago, and his graduate student Gerardo Ramirez.First, the researchers asked 20 college students to take a maths test to get a base-lined score. Next, they told the students that they could get a monetary award if they got a good score, and that they were being videotaped.Before beginning the main test, the researchers asked one group of students to spend 10 minutes writing down their anxieties about the test, while the other group sat quietly. Both groups then took the same exam.The researchers found that students who sat quietly did 12% worse than they had on the pre-test, and the ones who wrote about their anxieties improved their scores by 5%.Writing enables students to feel refreshed when facing challenging questions on the examination.

Each morning he was up early sitting at the kitchen table reading his holy(圣书）book. One day the grandson asked, "Grandpa! I try to read the holy book just like you but I don’t understand it, and what I do understand I forget as soon as I close the book. What good does reading the book do?"The grandfather quietly turned from putting coal in the stove and replied, "Take this coal basket down to the river and bring back a basket of water."The boy did as he was told, but all the water leaked out before he got back to the house. The grandfather laughed and said, "You'll have to move a little faster next time," and sent him back to the river with the basket to try again. This time the boy ran faster, but again the basket was empty before he returned home. Out of breath, he told his grandfather that it was impossible to carry water in a basket, and he went to get a bucket instead. The old man said, "I don’t want a bucket of water. I want a basket of water. You’re just not trying hard enough," and Grandpa went out of the door to watch the boy if he would do. The boy knew it was impossible, but he wanted to show his grandfather that even if he ran as fast as he could, the water would leak out before he got to the house. The boy again dipped the basket into the river and ran hard, but when he reached his grandfather, the basket was again empty. Out of breath, hesaid, “See Grandpa, it’s useless.""So you think it is useless." The old man said, "Look at the basket."

A．Choose the best answer (根据短文内容，选择最恰当的答案) (12分)What is beauty? Ideas of beauty change over time, differ from country to country and differ from male to female. People have always tried to make themselves look beautiful and attractive.Cosmetics(化妆品) have been used in every country in the world, even in ancient times. The Egyptians used coal to make a thick, dark eye make-up. Their skin was softened with milk and honey and they put oil on their skin to protect it from the sun. By the 1100s, the use of cosmetics had spread to Europe where many women used flour to make their skin look pale. Cosmetics, of course, are still used widely across the world today by women and even by men.In China, a sign of beauty and the mark of a wealthy woman used to be tiny feet. “Foot-binding（裹脚）” began between the ages of four and seven. In two years, the process came to an end. The perfectly bound foot was only three inches long and was very painful. Women who had their feet bound could hardly walk. Although foot-binding no longer exists, women still damage their feet for beauty. These days, many women choose to wear high-heeled shoes. However, many are not aware of the damage that can be done to their feet and knees.People have always done different things to change the shape of their bodies. In the past, some women used to wear some corsets to make their waists look smaller. A corset was a form of underwear, often made of whale bone and even metal. Although the old-fashioned corset made the person look slim, it was very uncomfortable and years of wearing one often did damage to the person’s organs such as their lungs, heart, liver and stomach.These days, people go to other lengths to achieve the perfect body: Dieting books fill bookshop shelves; gyms are big business; slimming products regularly appear on our TV screens. In the UK, a recent report said that most British women now expect to have cosmetic surgery(整容手术) in their lifetime!1.From the article, we can learn that people in different places have something in common to makethemselves ________.A) kind B) polite C) wealthy D) attractive2.Many things were used as cosmetics by ancient Egyptians except ________.A) flour B) coal C) milk D) oil3.According to the passage, __________ is a picture of a corset.A) B) C)D)4.The underlined phrase “go to other lengths”means_____________.A) make other efforts B) have other effects C) go to other places D) make other decisions5.Which statement is True according to the article?A) People from different countries hold the same view on beauty.阅读理解（9）阅读综合训练B) Cosmetics are only for women not for men all over the world.C) Tiny feet used to bring women lots of pain in ancient China.D) Most British women are not in favor of having cosmetic surgery.6.The best title of the passage might be ________.A) The Ways of Being Beautiful B) The Definitions(定义) of BeautyC) The Popular Cosmetic Surgeries D) The Changing Ideas of BeautyB．Choose the best words and complete the passage (选择最恰当的单词完成短文) (12分) Stress(压力) is a problem that each individual has to face in the daily life.

（17分）经典谁说了算王乾坤①很难说我们所处的是一个“去经典”还是“趋经典”的时代。
有一点可以肯定，这是一个不太吝啬“经典”名词的时代。
那么，什么是经典？经典由谁说了算？②通常的回答是：权威说了算或大众说了算。
但深通艺术之堂奥的人既不看重权势的眼色，也不在意大众的褒贬，他们心里明白：权威认定、大众评判也许不可或缺，但一切有形的人为裁判只有在文学合法性的前提下，才可能是有效的。
换言之，他们在乎的或敬畏的，是文学本身的法权。
③文学的自然法不是任何一种成文的文学法则，而是一种无形的天则。
“俯察人事，仰观天则．．．．。
”人事俯身可察，天则是需要仰观的。
由“自然法”来言事物的合法性本是天经地义。
可是在文明史上，天经地义的天则被各种偏见所干扰反倒成了常态。
五花八门的政治观、道德观、科学观、文化观、历史观以种种集体偶像的强势向文学越权，任意在这个领域封号经典，成了由来已久的“常态”。
④现当代，影响文学创作和评论的有两种思潮：一是认为世界是按照优胜劣汰的进化论定律演进的，二是认为权力可以决定一切。
这两种思潮交合成一种集体无意识：优胜在于权力，劣汰在于无权力。
于是，话语权如拜物教一般左右着创作家和评论家，从事文学艺术的匠人们使出浑身解数，不顾一切地调动可能的权力让自己的声音足够强大，最好是压倒一切成为中心。
⑤可惜，话语权或其他权力决定论不能解释中外文学的经典史，只要检索一些古今中外文学巨匠们弱势的社会身份或话语权状况就能验证。
⑥那么进入文苑的小说多得是，为什么能被认定经典的是此而不是彼？是谁在进行这种无形的筛选？答案只能在文学合法性中寻求。
以《红楼梦》为例，王国维们的鼓吹改变了这部小说的接受史，乃至现代“红学”横空出世。

Because of her Chinese English, she was often treated unfairly. People in department stores, at banks, and at restaurants did not take her seriously, did not give her good service, pretended not to understand her, or even acted as if they did not hear her.My mother realized that she was poor at English. When I was fifteen, she used to have me call people on phone to pretend I was she. I was made to ask for information or even to shout at people who had been rude to her. One time I had to call her stockbroker(股票经纪人). I said in an adolescent(青少年的) voice that was not very certain, “This is Mrs. Tan.” My mother was standing beside me saying, “Why he doesn’t send me check, already two weeks late.” And then, in perfect English I said: “I’m getting rather worried. You agreed to send the check two weeks ago, but it hasn’t arrived.” My mother then talked more loudly. “What he want? I come to New York to tell him in front of his boss.” And so I turned to the stockbroker again, “I can’t accept any more excuse. If I don’t receive the check immediately, I am going to have to speak to your manager when I am in New York next week.”The next week we ended up in New York. While I was sitting there red-faced, my mother, the real Mrs. Tan, was shouting to his boss in her broken English.When I was a teenager, my mother’s broken English embarrassed(令人尴尬) me. But now, I see it differently. To me, my mother’s English is perfectly clear, perfectly natural. It is my mother tongue.

Choose the words or expressions and complete the passageFrom the first day that men began to study numbers in daily life, some numbers have been thought to be lucky, while others are considered unlucky. And it’s not just Western culture that has done this. Cultures in Japan, China, India, and Africa have done the same thing, but for different reasons. Let’s take a look at some commonly known lucky and unlucky numbers to see why they are loved or hated.7Everyone knows that “7” is lucky. But ___1___? The root of most lucky numbers can be found in religion. God, for example, is said to have created the worldin 7 days. Until the 1800s, there were seven known planets in the solar system（太阳系）. Seven is even the usual number of spots on a ladybug（瓢虫）and ladybugs areconsidered good luck themselves.4This number means bad luck in Asia. For example, the ___2___ of “4” in Chinese is very similar to the word “death.” And because of this, “4” has been considered bad luck in China.666“666” is a(an) ___3___ number. It is extremely bad luck in Western culture but very good luck in many Asian countries.___4___ the Christian Bible（圣经）, the number 666 means Satan（撒旦，魔鬼）. It might be the most avoided number in Western culture. For example, there used to be US Highway 666 in New Mexico, but in 2003 it was changed to US Highway 491 because the government was afraid that the number would scare tourists away. Another example is that Ronald Reagan, 40th President of the United States, changed the ___5___ 666 St. Cloud Road, Bel Air to 668 St. Cloud Road, Bel Air before moving in.But in Asia, people love “666” because it sound like “things going smoothly,” and is considered to be very lucky.13People all over the world don’t like “13.” It’s difficult for you to find a building with a 13th floor in North America. Friday the 13th is considered a very bad day.2In many Asian countries, “2” is good luck. It is thought that good things come in pairs, which is a phrase that ___6___ appears in Western culture.8Maybe no people in the world are more fascinated about the number “8” than the Chinese. A recent report said that the phone number 8888-8888 was sold for over $200,000 in China.1. A. when B. how C. why D. where2. A. meaning B. pronunciation C. spelling D. writing3.

However, the nice day ended with firework celebrations atnight.In the first hour after the start of the celebration, PM2.5 levels rose to 500 in certain parts of the city, with the average across the city around 400.According to the China National Environmental Monitoring Center, on Lunar New Year’s Day, air pollution reached “dangerous levels” in 201 Chinese cities, because of fireworks, with more than 40 of them seeing “serious pollution”.

They shouldn’t be banned totally,” commented netizen Tracy on the China Daily online forum (论坛). “But the time should be reduced.

Itdepends on where they live. While students from one town are on vacation,their neighbors in the next town may have classes as usual.You may have heard of it from many hit US TV shows and movies. It’susually in the middle of March, when characters on shows like Gossip Girl get aweek off from classes, go to the beach and throw big parties. It’s spring break – or, “party time!”Unlike our semester, which starts in late February or early March this year, American schools begin as early as January. So in late March and April, most American schools, ranging from kindergartens to colleges, give students one to two weeks off school.College students often take planes to places like Florida or Cancun, Mexico. They relax on the beach, enjoy cold drinks and get a tan.Younger kids take trips with their parents, visiting a new state or even a new country. Sometimes teachers lead overseas trips for groups of students. On a ten-day trip, for example, students may go on a tour through Spain, France, and Italy, which gives them a great chance to see different parts of the world.Having a “staycation”, which means being a tourist in your own city, is another popular trend (趋势). You can visit local art galleries (美术馆), museums or have a big meal in a nice restaurant.For those who are not in the mood to go out, spring break is a good time to catch up with hit TV series or play video games.There are also students who want a different kind of spring break experience. Instead of partying, they choose to do community service, help with disaster-hit areas and do other volunteering work.No matter how they’ve spent the break, one thing is for sure – students return to school feeling refreshed (恢复活力的) and ready to finish the school year.1.Students in the US begin their spring break at a different time, don’t they?_____________________________________________________________________.2.How long does the spring break usually last?_____________________________________________________________________.3.Where do college students often go during the spring break?_____________________________________________________________________.4.According to the passage, how can students spend the spring break differently?By __________________________________________________________________.5.What’s the advantage of having a spring break?_____________________________________________________________________.6.If you are given the spring break, how will you spend it?

A．Choose the best answer (根据短文内容，选择最恰当的答案) (12分)What is beauty? Ideas of beauty change over time, differ from country to country and differ from male to female. People have always tried to make themselves look beautiful and attractive.Cosmetics(化妆品) have been used in every country in the world, even in ancient times. The Egyptians used coal to make a thick, dark eye make-up. Their skin was softened with milk and honey and they put oil on their skin to protect it from the sun. By the 1100s, the use of cosmetics had spread to Europe where many women used flour to make their skin look pale. Cosmetics, of course, are still used widely across the world today by women and even by men.In China, a sign of beauty and the mark of a wealthy woman used to be tiny feet. “Foot-binding（裹脚）” began between the ages of four and seven. In two years, the process came to an end. The perfectly bound foot was only three inches long and was very painful. Women who had their feet bound could hardly walk. Although foot-binding no longer exists, women still damage their feet for beauty. These days, many women choose to wear high-heeled shoes. However, many are not aware of the damage that can be done to their feet and knees.People have always done different things to change the shape of their bodies. In the past, some women used to wear some corsets to make their waists look smaller. A corset was a form of underwear, often made of whale bone and even metal. Although the old-fashioned corset made the person look slim, it was very uncomfortable and years of wearing one often did damage to the person’s organs such as their lungs, heart, liver and stomach.These days, people go to other lengths to achieve the perfect body: Dieting books fill bookshop shelves; gyms are big business; slimming products regularly appear on our TV screens. In the UK, a recent report said that most British women now expect to have cosmetic surgery(整容手术) in their lifetime!1.From the article, we can learn that people in different places have something in common to makethemselves ________.A) kind B) polite C) wealthy D) attractive2.Many things were used as cosmetics by ancient Egyptians except ________.A) flour B) coal C) milk D) oil3.According to the passage, __________ is a picture of a corset.A) B) C)D)4.The underlined phrase “go to other lengths”means_____________.A) make other efforts B) have other effects C) go to other places D) make other decisions5.Which statement is True according to the article?A) People from different countries hold the same view on beauty.B) Cosmetics are only for women not for men all over the world.阅读理解（9）阅读综合训练C) Tiny feet used to bring women lots of pain in ancient China.D) Most British women are not in favor of having cosmetic surgery.6.The best title of the passage might be ________.A) The Ways of Being Beautiful B) The Definitions(定义) of BeautyC) The Popular Cosmetic Surgeries D) The Changing Ideas of Beauty【答案】1.

A. Choose the best answer（根据短文内容，选择最恰当的答案) ( 12分)Dear Anne,Thanks for your email. It’s great to have a pen pal from another country. My name is Jeff, and my family has a farm in Australia. We grow wheat and other crops on our farm. Let me tell you what happened here last week.Until last week, our plants had been growing well because we’ve had a lot of rain. Then the locusts came. They flew towards our farm in a swarm(一大群), which contained millions of locusts and covered an area of several square kilometers. The locusts came from an area far away. They had flown through the night.Early the next morning, I went outside with Dad. We looked at the swarm in the sky. I had never seen so many animals together at a time. Dad said there was nothing we could do for the crops. I wasn’t afraid, because locusts don’t hurt people.The swarm landed in our fields, and the locusts ate most of our wheat. We lost a lot of our harvest. Then the locusts flew to other farms in our area and ate some of those crops, too.I didn’t go to school that day, because the swarm of locusts made it hard for drivers to see on the roads and the school bus didn’t run. Instead, I helped Mum and Dad on the farm.The locust plague(灾祸) is over now, and the locusts have all gone. Mum and Dad said we must get the damaged fields ready for the new plants. We are going to be very busy on the farm. Email me again soon.Your new friend,Jeff1.Jeff’s family runs a ______ in Australia.A) factory B) restaurant C) company D) farm2.The weather in Jeff’s hometown this year is helpful ______.A) for plants to grow B) to people’s health C) for animals to grow D) to the local industry3.The disaster in the e-mail took place ______.A) last year B) last month C) last week D) yesterday4.Which of the following matches the situation of the disaster?A)B)C)D)5.Jeff wasn’t afraid of locusts because they don’t ______.A) stay long in an area B) attack people C) come out at night D) eat many crops阅读理解（10）阅读综合训练6.The best title for this e-mail is ______.A) Pen Friends B) An Australian Family C) A Locust Plague D) Animals in AustraliaB.Choose the words and complete the passage（选择最恰当的单词完成短文）（12分）Who makes movies?

Answer the questions（根据短文内容回答下列问题) ( 12分)It began with one red paper clip (回形针) and ended with a house. Kyle MacDonald, a 26-year-old Canadian, got a three-bedroomed house through 14 trades(交换).Seeing Kyle’s successful experience, now more and more young people around the world are starting their own trading activities. They set up websites wherepeople can trade things they do not usually use with other people. A website calledPeerfix allows people to trade their used DVDs. These traders usually preferface-to-face trading, which means they don’t have to worry about who is going topay for the delivery.Last year, a young girl in Beijing decided to follow the example of Kyle. She started with a paper clip and hoped to get a house in the end. After several trades she now has a piano which is worth more than 10,000 yuan. But she may still have a long way to go.You may wonder why people are so interested in those trading activities. If you ask Kyle, he will say, “To a man dying of thirst(干渴) in the desert, a glass of water is surely more useful than one million dollars, isn’t it?” Kyle’s words probably show why these trades are popular among young people.1.Did Kyle start his trade with a house?2.Where does Kyle come from?3.How do young people start their trading activities?4.Why do some traders like face-to-face trading?5.What has the girl in Beijing got after several trades?6.According to Kyle’s words, why are these trades popular among young people？完型填空强化训练Choose the words and complete the passage（选择最恰当的单词完成短文）（12分）I can remember clearly the day I arrived at the language camp where something magical happened to me.My heart was beating fast and I really wanted to tell Mom to turn around, but we were entering the gate and I knew it was too late.

publisher sold out the whole first edition(版) at a bookstore the day it was printed，and received “thousands of requests” for more copies of the book．It also got a lot of news reports．As a result，the publisher is planning topublish 4 kinds of books in disappearing ink．In some ways，the idea is pretty clever． 5 ，we still have some suggestions：First，the book should start the vanishing process after the reader first opens the book．If the vanishing ink books become very popular in the future，readers will need to read them one at a time．They don’t want their books to vanish before they read the first page．Second，the vanished book should find a 6 use．Maybe they can be recycled，or maybe we can use them as notebooks．It would be a more environmentally friendly way to do this．1．A．answer the

She was the most amazing andinspirational(鼓舞人心的) woman I've ever met. When a neighbour needed food, shegave her last potato. When a friend needed money, she gave her last pound. She gaveher whole life helping others around her and at her funeral（葬礼）over 4,000 people queued for 3 hours to get in and show their respects. ”Luke performed his first good deed on January 1st, 2014, with the simple act of greeting a waitress at a cafe he visited. The next day he bought food and drinks for some homeless people and followed it up by giving coins to a woman who did not have enough to feed a parking meter. Though most of his kind acts have been welcomed, Luke says there have been a few embarrassing situations. For example, when he bought a sausage roll for a homeless man, but the man happened to be a vegetarian who didn't eat meat or fish.To try to encourage others to perform good deeds, Luke has created a deck of cards(一副牌). They're called "Cards for Kindness" and each card suggests a simple act of kindness -- things like giving a stranger a hug or making peace with an enemy. All the money he collects from giving out the cards is donated to a charity--the British Heart Foundation.Luke's generosity didn't go unnoticed-- to reward (奖赏) the young man as he was near the end of his journey, Domino's Pizza awarded him a year's supply of free pizza. Not surprisingly, the big-hearted youngster used the gift to hold special pizza days for charity.And that is not all -- since starting his challenge, Luke also entered a competition run by Utility Aid to win the job of National Philanthropy (慈善事业) Manager. That's also known as The Nicest Job in Britain. His Good Deed challenge made the organizers think that he was the right man for the job. So, for the whole of 2015, Luke will be paid to travel the UK and assist 45 different charities.Luke has also decided to continue his challenge for another year and says the experiment has completely changed his life. He said: “I think I have healed myself by helping others.
