I have been thinking about the question you asked me. From my point of view, you can choose to come to China after finishing your studies.For one reason, Chin a’s development over the past 30 years offers quantities of job opportunities for the young. What’s more, what you are studying is badly needed in China nowadays. In fact, many big companies in our city are hoping to hire people like you.For another reason, China is a country with so different cultures and traditions from the west that many foreigners enjoy living and working here. Why not come and join them? I’m sure you will adapt to the environment quickly. If you come here, I will do what I can to help you. So what are you waiting for?I’m looking forward to your coming.Best wishes.Yours,Li Hua听力部分录音稿第一节(Text 1)M: How much are the shoes?W: They are originally 80 dollars a pair.

So when her mom called to ask if she’d like to go shopping at the localfabric(布料) store for the coming Christmas, she couldn’t say no because she knew she badly needed some fabrics to make new clothes for her children. “I remember walking around, gazing at all this beautiful fabric, wondering whether there is anything cheap that I could afford. And I could still get some money left to buy Christmas gifts for my family.Well, Terry’s mom must have known what Terry was thinking. Smiling kindly, she w hispered to Terry, “You pick any fabrics you like. It’s your Christmas gift from me.” Terry’s eyes were filed with tears as the cart began to overflow with many fabrics, but not because Terry was planning on making herself a pretty dress or a pair of curta ins for the kitchen. Rather, Terry’s mom’s kindness had inspired some holiday gift ideas in Terry, and it didn’t take long for Terry to figure out what she was going to do with all that fabric.“I was going to make my first quilt,” she explains. “Every nig ht I would work on this queen-size quilt. With every stitch(一针), I thought about all that my mom had done for me over the course of my childhood, during which we were always battling homelessness, but Mom somehow managed to fill our lives with love and mak e everything okay.”On Christmas Day, five days after her baby girl was born, Terry handed her mom a gift box. Inside was the quilt she had sewn, from the fabric her mother had given her as a gift. 24.What do we know about Terry eighteen years ago?A. Terry made a living by making clothes.B.

Terry often went shopping at the local fabric store.25.Which of the following words best describes Terry’s mom?A. Strict.B. Critical.C. Faithful.D.

The endless love from her mother.27.W hat is the best title for the text?A. A Christmas DayB. The First QuiltC. Colorful FabricsD. Hard ChildhoodHave you ever noticed how Americans fill up their entire glass with ice and then pour their beverage(饮品) in, but Europeans take their drinks at room t emperature? In the U. S., we’ve created fridges that give you cold ice at the press of a button, but in Britain they typically serve their tap water warm.This tradition—if that’s what you want to call it-dates back to the 19th century. During that time, it was already commonplace for most American homes to have an ice box. Ice would be harvested in northern America or Canada and shipped across the Atlantic and sold at a high price in British department stores. Can you imagine heading to Macy’s to treat you rself to a block of ice?Putting ice in your drink started to become somewhat of a fashion(时尚) trend for the wealthyin Britain. Some would put a few cubes in their champagne and sip on their chilled drinks athigh-class parties. But, like with any fashion trend, it eventually faded, mainly because the ice was just too expensive. And even once ice boxes began appearing in homes in Britain as well, Brits never took a liking to ice in their drinks.So, next time you travel overseas, don’t feel offended(冒犯) when your server gives you an eye roll when you ask for ice water.28.Who has written the text?A. A European.B. An American.C. A Canadian.D. An Asian.29.Why do Europeans take their drinks at room temperature?A. Because they have no fridges.B. Because they have warm taps.C. Because they are accustomed to it.D. Because they can’t afford ice.30.What can we infer about Brits?A. They treat their guests to cold drinks.B. They always follow what Americans do.C. They don’t know where to get ice blocks.D. They have ice boxes later than Americans.31.What does the text mainly talk about?A. Why Americans like icy drinks while Europeans don’t.B. When people overseas have icy drinks with their meals.C. Where people can entertain themselves with icy drinks.D. How Europeans and Americans make different beverage.When it comes to mental illness, many people often find it tough to get the help they need. This is especially true for young students making the transition(过渡) to college life.“Sometimes, students don’t realize how hard it is to adjust to college,” said Laura Smith, associate dean of students at the University of Texas at Dallas. “You’re not the big fish in your classes anymore; you have all kinds of personal stress; you’re away from home. Dealing with these things is not easy.”Students who are going through these problems sometimes want to reach out. But if students don’t feel comfortable seeking help, many feel that it’s the responsibility of their university to help them.“I really wish that there was more importance placed on how counseling(咨询) centers help students,” said Comnie Trinh. “Counseling services are just as important as academics and sports.”Trinh, 27, graduated from Texas Woman’s University in 2015. During college, she host ed various workshops on how to handle mental health conditions. Trinh used her own story to connect with students who might be facing similar problems. High academic pressures, cultural differences as an Asian American and stressful social situations stood out as some of the most common causes of Trinh’s anxiety.It was only after years of personal problems that she could admit that reaching out isn’t a sign of weakness.”If you feel you can’t connect with other people around you, you should address the issue without shame,” Trinh said. “You’ll find that there are a lot of people out there who sincerelywant to help you.”32.The passage can be seen as the author’s reflections upon.A. college lifeB. counseling serviceC. mental healthD. cultural differences33.What’s Trinh’s preferred solution to the problems mentioned?A. Making self-criticism.B. Handing the problems actively.C. Solving the problem on your own.D. Finding the causes of the problems.34.What does the underlined phrase “connect with” in the last paragraph probably mean?A. Get along with.B. Join together with.C. Be related to.D. Get through to.35.What can we learn from the text?A. Counseling service helps doing research.B. Adjusting to college life is a piece of cake.C. Hosting workshops improves students’ ability.D. Being brave to get help is not a sign of weakness.三、七选五A new study suggests that the timing of a wound affects the speed at which it heals(愈合). Wounds suffered during the day heal around 60 percent faster than those at night.The study showed how the body’s circadian rhythm(昼夜节律) controlled the healing of wounds. 36.It ells our bodies when to wake up, eat and sleep in a cycle—a series of activities that repeat themselves day after day. 37.In the study, researchers found that skin cells moved faster to repair wounds suffered during the day. Their findings were published in the journal Science Transnational Medicine.The researchers examined cells, mice, and burn injury databases. 38.Night-time burns—burns suffered between 8 o’clock at night and 8 o’ clock the next morning—were 95percent healed after an average of 28 days.But after an average of 17 days, daytime burns-burns suffered between 8 o’clock in the morning and 8 o’clock at night—were 95 percent healed. 39.Wounds are very costly to treat. 40.In Britain’s National Health Services, for example, such services cost around $6.56 billion per year. Experts say the high costs result, in part, from a lack of drugs that speed up the closure of wounds.A. Each cycle lasts about 24 hours.B. The circadian rhythm is like a clock or timer.C. Specifically their investigation found the following information:D. The new study’s findings could help scientists develop better drugs.E. In other words, nigh-time injuries took an average of 11days longer to healF. Worldwide, billions of dollars are spent every year on wound-treatment services.G. That’s what a group of researchers from a university in Canada recently published.第II卷(非选择题)请点击修改第II卷的文字说明四、提纲类作文41.假如你是长春市某高中生李华,最近你们班对本市开展的“绿色出行”(Green Transport)计划展开了讨论,该计划倡导市民骑自行车,并且提供了大批量公共自行车。

I decided totake a walk eve n though I did n't know where I would go. The most extraord inary thing happe ned whe n I was out on this walk. I saw an old man sitt ing on a chair. He was-2 -a seller of second-hand shoes. He seemed so tired and nobody was buying his shoes.I wanted to give him something but I had not brought anything with me. Then, a little girl came toward him.I heard the child say, "Grandfather, may I polish your shoes?"That old man took pity on her, smiled and he gave her a shoe to polish. The girl said, "I polish the shoebecause I need money to buy my brother a new school uniform." The old man answered, "Oh, little girl.Just stop doing this. Come with me and I will buy you a uniform."Then they walked to a market (I followed behind) and he bought her a uniform. Thegirl was so happy. She said, "Thank you so much for doing this." Then she left, leaving the old man smiling.He walked away from the market, but I stopped him.I whispered in his ear, "You are a hero! Thank you for your kindness!" As I walkedaway, I glanced back and I could see him still smiling. I was blown away by the kindness I had just seen.Someone who had so little himself was able to show such incredible generosity! Amazing!My own sadness had completely disappeared, chased away by the light of this kind act. I began realizingthat I have a lot to be thankful for.24. Why did the girl want to polish shoes for the old man?A. To support the old man's business.B. To show her pity on the old man.C. To earn money to buy something to her brother.D. To attract the attention of passers-by to buy more shoes.25. What can we know about the old man from the passage?A. He has not enough to eat and wear.B. He is very cold to others.C. He is a kind and generous man.D. He is in a poor health condition.26. What words can be described the girl'sD. Mean and sad.character?A. Friendly and caring.B. Greedy and kind.C.

Even though one has little, he should try to help others.CAdults perform better whe n they have a lot to gain or lose. But scie ntists did notknow whether tee ns did too. To find out, I nsel asked 88 people betwee n the ages of13 and 20. She had them try a game. The participa nts looked at pictures of pla netson a computer scree n. They had to click as fast as they could whe n they saw a pla netwith desig ns. They were not supposed to click if a pla net had no desig ns.The participa nts could earn 20 cents for right an swers but lose 10 cents for wrongones. In other sessions, they'd get a dollar for right answers, and lose a half dollar for wrong on es.Players of all ages wan ted to win the mon ey, and cared more about bigger rewards tha n smaller on es. As In sel expected, adults performed better whe n the stakes were high. But tee ns 13to 18 played just as well whether they stood to win 20 cents or a dollar. Only 19-or 20-year olds stepped up their game for the higher stakes.Insel's team published this work November 28, 2017, in Nature Communications.Brains cha nge and mature duri ng adolesce nee. And not all parts grow at the same rate. In sel was in terested in two areas in particular. One is deep in side the brain andjust above the ears. Called the ventral striatum ( 腹侧纹状体 ),it helps the brain calculate rewards. The ven tral striatum becomes mature duri ng the tee n years.The brain's prefron tal cortex (前额叶)takes Ion ger to mature. This area is importa ntfor planning and setting goals. It may not mature until early adulthood.Nerve pathways — think of them as the brain's "wiring"— connect the ventral striatumand prefrontal cortex. This lets the two regions communicate to make decisions. But because the prefr on tal cortex matures later, the wiri ng betwee n the two may not be complete un til adulthood.Which of the follow ing can expla in In sel's research?A. Teens ignore key points in many aspects.27. 28.B. Adults behave better with higher rewards.C. Teens give more attention to exams than usual work.D. Adults behave more maturely than children in every way.29. What does the underlined word "stakes" refer to?A. The final results of games or experiments.B. The things that can be gained or lost in races.C. The ambitions or energies that one experiences in games.D. The powers that make one feel less pressure or pain.30. From the passage, we can know __________ .A. the experiment aims to find out adults' behaviour facing high stakesB. teens have better performances in the first roundsC. adults care less about the experiment at firstD. adults and teens show differently with high stakes31. Which is the best title of the passage?A. Unlike adults, teens don't perform better with high stakesB. Who perform better, adults or children?C. Stakes are the key points in promoting one's passionD. Whether low stakes or high stakes, one behaves similarlyDAttempting to open very old books and records without damaging them can be difficult, but scientists inSwitzerland say they have improved a method to read age-old documents without even touching them.Researchers at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology are using radiation, in the form of x-rays, tocreate images of the documents. This method is called X-ray computed tomography or X-Raytomography.Ona recent day, the researchers used X-ray tomography to read from a small 14th century document.Giorgio Margaritondo is working on the project. Reading from the document, he noted, "in the year 1351,a young lady from Venice...wrote a testament, and then the testament was sealed, and remained sealedfor all these many centuries."Italian oficials are planning to use X-Ray tomography to build an open digital system in the State Archivesof Venice. Margarit ondo says, "What you find in side the Archives are not only small docume nts. But- 5 -most of the items are huge volumes the size of atable, and so we must be able in the future to look in side them."Many of the docume nts show sig ns of weatheri ng, and are easily broke n. Fauzia Albert in is also worki ng on the project. She says, "We n eed a tech nique to read in side them.Thanks to the use for thousa nds of years of iron-based inks we can read them usingX-rays."Alberti n is also with the Swiss Federal In stitute of Tech no logy. The researchers havea lot of work to keep them busy. The State Archives of Ven ice has a huge nu mber ofrecords. They were produced over a period of about 1,000 years. The docume nts cover about 80 kilometers of shelf space.32. What writing method does the third paragraph use?A. Descripti on.B. Giving examples.C. Comparis on. C. Listi ng figures.33. What plays importa nt role in readi ng old docume nts?A. The suitable weather.B. The sizes of the docume nts.C. The ancient writi ng tools.D. The years of the old books.34.

并在答题卡上将该选项涂黑.AA good book can capture the imagination while improving children’s knowledge of the world. While there are many great books written today, here you will find the classic books for children.The Chronicles of Narnia by C.S.Lewisthe exciting adventures in all seven books. The series follows the adventures of four children as they travel repeatedly to Narnia, where their lives are much different and quite exciting. Several stories of the series have been adapted for movies.Charlie and the Chocolate Factory by Ronal DahlCharlie and the Chocolate Factory is such a great story of success for little guys. It’s a fun story about determination and following the rules and how they can lead to success, even when you are stuck in trouble. And it is all based on delicious chocolate and a tour of the strangest chocolate factory you will ever encounter(遇到)!Harriet the Spy by Louise FitzhughHarriet the Spy tells the story of Harriet, a bright and curious girl. She struggles with some of life’s issues and tries to understand the world by spying on others and recording what she learns in her notebook. Her life becomes more difficult when her classmates find the notebook.A Wonderful Set of Classic Books from E.B.WhiteE.B. White is one of those brilliant writers, whose works reach out to everyone at a different level. The set contains three classics:Charlotte’s Web, Stuart Little and The Trumpet of the Swam, which are recommended for reading level ages of 9-12, but loved by younger and older alike. The writer captures the imagination and reminds the readers difficulties can be overcome, and that wonderful things take place in our everyday lives.21. What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 2 refer to?A.The childB. the bookC. NarniaD. the attention22. We can learn from the text that _____A. Harriet spies on others mainly out of curiosityB. children read the four books only for pleasureC. only successful guys will like to visit the strange chocolate factoryD. only children of 9-12 years old are interested in the above books23. If a child loves adventure, he may prefer to read ______.A. Harriet the SpyB. E.B. White’s classicsC. the Chronicles of NarniaD. Charlie and the Chocolate Factory24. How is A Wonderful Set of Classic Books different from other classic books mentioned in the passage?A. It is loved by people of all ages.B. It can capture children’s imagination.C. It contains only one classic bookD. It can improve children’s knowledge of the world.BThe ancient Greek philosopher Plato said, “Music is a moral law. It gives soul to the universe, wings to the mind, flight to the imagination, and charm and joy to life and to everything.”"We know that music brings joy and comfort, and makes us feel happy," Spencer says. "But research has also discovered music plays a powerful role in the mental development of children. Music inspires creativity, imagination and self-expression. It also builds self-respect and is good for memory skills. "The power of musicMuch research supports both Spencer and Plato. A Stanford University study found that musical training improves the way the brain processes the spoken word.Research from Canada found that children aged four to six years old who had music lessons had better memories, as well as higher ability to read and write and maths levels.Not in the curriculum (课程)Research shows it's not that smart kids play music; it's that music makes kids smarter. It supports Spencer's call for music to be a standard part of the school curriculum, like English and maths.“Music is everywhere, but no t at 75 percent of public schools around Australia who don't have a devoted music teacher," Spencer says. "It's sad that many children don't have access to formal musical education, particularly when it has such an effect on a child's development.”It's up to parentsInvolving our children in music doesn't have to be expensive. And many parents give their kids musical exposure subliminally(下意识地), be it through singing, the radio or stereo. But parents can take it to the next level by talking about music and exposing kids to different styles.For many older children, music is part of their culture and while parents don't have to like it, they can still engage their kids in conversation about it.Ideally, Spencer would like every child to learn an instrument. “Kids can access cheap instruments like a ukulele, recorder or harmonica(口琴)," Spencer says. He says the Internet has a lot of free videos which teach you how to play instruments."I can't stress enough how important music is," he says. "It builds relationships, unites people and, most importantly, it is fun.”25. Plato's words are mentioned at the beginning of the text to show that ______.A. music was important in ancientB. everything is related to musicC. Don Spencer admires PlatoD. music has magic power26. From the research mentioned in the passage, we can learn ______.A .children aged four to six have better memoriesB. music can make children smarterC. there are no professional music teachers in AustraliaD. music is a standard part of the school curriculum in most schools27. It can be inferred from the last four paragraphs that ______.A. parents always expose their children to different musicB. musical instruments are often expensive and not availableC . parents cannot talk about music with their older childrenD. people can have easy access to leaning how to play instruments28. What might be the best title for the passage?A. When Music Is TaughtB. Why Music MattersC. What We Learn from MusicD. How Children Learn MusicCHow can we explain Lou Gehrig’s attitude to his disease ? The great baseball star told the crowd at Yankee Stadium :” For the past two weeks you have been reading about my bad news .Today I consider myself the luckiest man on the face of this earth.” Many people were moved by his words . The Iron Horse then described his many blessings and fortunes , saying a lot “I ‘m lucky” and “That’s something”.Clearly , luck is a state of mind .To explore this question scientifically , Wiseman created a “luck lab ” at the university of Hertfordshire in England . Wiseman began by testing whether those who believe they are lucky are actually more likely to win the lottery (彩票). He invited 700 people .Although lucky people were twice as confident as the unlucky ones that they would win the lottery ,there was no difference in winnings .”Lucky people are far more satisfied with their life than unlucky people .” Wiseman wrote in his charming book, The Luck Factor .Does this satisfied state of mind translate into actual life that someone might call lucky ? It does. Here ‘s how .Wiseman found the lucky ones were half as anxious as the unlucky ones , that is , “ Because lucky people tend to be more relaxed than others . They are morelikely to notice opportunities even when they are not expecting them.”Wiseman discovered lucky people also score much higher in openness than unlucky people do . “Lucky people are open to new experiences in their lives .”he notes.Expectation also plays a role in luck . Lucky people expect good things to happen , and when they do ,they welcome them .But even in face of difficulty , lucky people turn the bad into good fortune . Considering the example set by one of the longest ALS sufferers in history ,Stephen W.Hawking once wrote : “ I was lucky to have chosen to work in physics ,because that was one of the few areas ,in which my condition would not be a serious disability .”Unable to move , Hawking has made use of his fate by using it as a chance to change our understanding of the universe , which he has . That’s something.29. Based on this passage , we can infer Lou Gehrig____.A. is the luckiest man in the worldB. earned good money after being illC. has been inspiring people a lotD. has written a lot of books on fate30. To prove his idea scientific ,Wiseman _________ .A. invited Hawking to do the experimentB. did the experiment in his luck labC. studied 700 lucky lottery winnersD. asked Lou Gehrig to speak for him31. In the author’s opinion ,lucky people are ______ .A. indeed more fortune people in lifeB . less anxious and more relaxedC. always blind to his misfortuneD. unlikely to succeed in life32. From the example of Stephen Hawking ,we can’t conclude that_____.A. he is grateful to his physical diseaseB. difficulty can’t defeat the lucky manC. lucky people are envied by othersD. a lucky person tends to see the positive side of the bad things in lifeDThey are most likely to be healthy, wealthy and wise, according to the old saying.But those who are early to bed and early to rise do not always have the upper hand, researchers say. They have revealed that night owls are generally brighter and wealthier than those able to get up early in the morning.Experts from the University of Madrid carried out tests on around 1,000 teenagers and found that those who preferred to stay up late demonstrated the kind of intelligence associated with honored jobs and higher incomes. ‘Larks or ‘morning people’, however, often acquired better exam results, possibly because lessons are held at the wrong time of day for night owls. The researchers examined the habits and body clocks of the youngsters to determine whether they liked to stay up late and sleep in later in the morning, or preferred to go to bed early and were at their peak in the morning. School performance and inductive (归纳的) intelligence, or problem solving, were measured and academic grades in the major subjects were also taken into account. The results showed that evening types scored higher than morning types on inductive reasoning, which has been shown to be a good estimate of general intelligence and a strong indicator of academic performance. They also had a greater capacity to think conceptually as well as analytically. Such abilities have been linked to innovative(创新的)thinking, more admired occupations and better incomes.Famous night owls include President Obama, Charles Darwin, Winston Churchill, Keith Richards and Elvis Presley. George W Bush, who is regularly in bed by 10pm, Thomas Edison, Napoleon, Condoleezza Rice, who wakes at 4.30am, and Ernest Hemingway are among those known as larks. Jim Horne, professor of psycho-physiology at Loughborough University, said: ‘Evening types tend to be the more active and creative types, the poets, artists and inventors, while the morning types are the deducers (推断者), as are often seen with civil servants and accountants.’ A previous study of US Air Force recruits(新兵)found evening types were much better at thinking laterally (横向) to solve problems than larks.33. The underlined word “owl” in the text means:__________A. A bird of prey that flies at nightB. A bird of prey that is a symbol of wisdomC. A kind of person who stays up lateD. A kind of person who gets up early34. The following features belong to night owls except that _______.A. Night owls are much healthier, wealthier and wiserB. Night owls have a strong ability to reason logicallyC. Night owls are expert in analyzing and innovative thinkingD. Night owls stay up late and sleep later in the morning35. What’s the author’s attitude toward s night owls?A. Skeptical.B. Negative.C. Subjective.D. Objective.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。

No, these aren't some hot new bands, but the names of a number of British youth subcultures(亚文化) from the last 70 years.Youth Club, a UK not-for-profit organization, released a book earlier this year celebrating many different subcultures from throughout Britain s recent history."A catalyst(催化剂) for creativity on the worldwide stage, British youth culture movements from the Teddy Boys of the 1950s to the grime Scene of the 2000s continue to play a pioneering role in music, fashion and creativity across the globe," it wrote on its website.These subcultures were traditionally a way for young people to show their personalities to others. Walking around London in the 1970s would have meant seeing dozens of young "punks" - people dressed in ripped denim(破洞牛仔裤), leather jackets, body piercings(穿孔) and with brightly-dyed hair—on the streets. And in the90s, “ravers” were young people who threw all-night parties in abandoned buildings or car parks.So, what was the reason behind these subcultures?"On both sides of the Atlantic, more and more young disappointed teenagers were lookingfor an escape from the boredom and constraints(约束)of society, "wrote lan Youngs, BBC entertainment reporter. "Unemployment, racial tensions and social upheaval (剧变)added fuel to their fires."Youth subcultures have all but disappeared in the West. Some experts believe the reason for this is the instant and low-priced availability of music and clothing in the internet age."Fashion and music, they’re much cheaper and they’re much faster today, " Ruth Adams, a culture lecturer at Kings College London told The Guardian."When I was a teenager, you had to stick to one type of music or fashion, because it cost more money. Now, it' s all a bit more blurry(模糊不清的),” s he said, believing that it's harder to figure out someone's personality or music tastes nowadays just by looking at them.Despite this, Adams believes that today’s young people are still finding their own way to express themselves, but in a more modern way."It's certainly happening online," she said. "It's a lot easier to use personas(伪装) online just by showcasing certain types of mysterious knowledge."4.According to the text, British youth subcultures____.A.could be traced back to the 1970sB.were started by Youth Club to promote creativityC.were a way for youth to express their identitiesD.had a greater impact on fashion than music5.What contributed to the popularity of these youth subcultures?a. Young people's desire for freedom and fun.b. Young people's longing for fame and wealth.c. The social pressure young people suffered.d. The easy access to music and clothing.A.a bB.a cC.b dD.c d6.Which of the following would Ruth Adams probably agree with?A.Music and fashion trends develop too fast for young people to follow today.B.Young people today are less willing to express themselves as her peers did.C.Young people today are less interested in music and fashion than her peers used to be.D.The internet makes it harder to figure out the personalities of young people today. 7.What's the author' s attitude toward subcultures?A.ObjectiveB.NegativeC.DoubtfulD.SupportiveIt's a classroom; but instead of being told to sit quietly and listen, you are encouraged to stand up, jump around, imagine and act out it's a class full of laughter and applause(掌声), emotion and energy. Welcome to drama class, one of my favorite classes at high school.In drama class we used to play a lot of“ drama games. We would improvise(即兴表演), mime(模仿) and above all use our imaginations.My favorite game was called "Spotto". One person stood at the front of the class and performed a scene, completely out of their imagination. When one audience member yelled "Spotto!", the performer had to freeze. Then the person who had yelled Spotto had to get up and improvise a new scenario (剧情)based on the position the first performer froze in. This went on as more and more people were added to the scene.Eventually the entire class would have joined the scene. Then the performers would start to leave in reverse(颠倒的)order. The first performer had to have a good memory to remember all the other scenes.It was a lot of fun, and a good test of everyone's imagination to see what they would come up with.Drama class at my school often involved a big performance at the end of the semester as well. We would work on a production throughout the semester and put on a show for our parents and the school community.It was a great experience to perform on stage in front of a large audience. Drama class can help shy children to come out of their shells. It helped me become more confident and developed my public speaking skills.

The streets, the shops and the schools still there just like they would be on a normal day, except there are no people to be seen. It is the emptiness that scares you.Now a real-life "ghost city" is being built in the US. But fortunately, it has nothing to do with zombies - it is going to be a place to test the technology of the futureCalled CITE - the Center for Innovation(创新), Testing and Evaluation(测评) - the city is the idea of technology company Pegasus Global Holdings. Covering an area of 15 square miles (39 square kilometers), it is the size of a small US city and sits in the middle of the New Mexico desert.But why do we need an empty city that nobody will call home?The reason is that we can't afford to test the latest technologies in the cities that we live in- they might not be ready and could cause problems and danger in our everyday lives."It will be a true laboratory without the problems and safety issues that come with people living there. Here you can break things and run into things, and get used to how they work, before taking them out into the market, Pegasus managing director Robert Brumley told technology magazine Wired.In fact, without worrying about hurting people, anybody with a new idea can ask to test it in this city. Just think about the possibilities- driverless cars can move freely on the streets, homes with robots can be designed and energy sources like nuclear power can also be put to the test.As good as the idea may seem, however, there are still doubts about CITE. "One of the most difficult things to do when developing these new technologies is to have them safely move around people, who can suddenly jump out in front of something," Reese Jones, a founder of Singularity University, US, told Fortune magazine.Jones is worried that, even if a technology works perfectly well in CITE, introducing it to a real city will still be a whole different story because there will be people living in the city.But no matter what, perhaps we should wait until CITE is finished in 2018. Maybe it will turn out to work just fine.12.The empty city is being built_____.A.so people can experience the technology of the futureB.to try driverless cars and robots inC.to test new technology inD.as a place full of the latest technology13.Which of the following statements is TRUE about CITE?A.It is located beside the New Mexico desert.B.It was started by Singularity University.C.Things in the city can easily be broken down and built again.D.Anyone can ask to try out their new designs there.14.According to Jones,_______.A.CITE offers great possibilities for future technologyB.new technologies will work perfectly well with the help of CITEC.settings in CITE should be real in order to create the best resultsD.testing results in CITE may not prove to work in a real city15.What is the main purpose of this article?A.To explain why CITE could be very helpful.B.To show that CITE has a bright future.C.To explain CITE and problems it may have.D.To offer a good solution that will help to develop future technologies.二、七选五Many teenagers want to look cool. 16.Chloe Murray, an eighth-grader at Jefferson Middle School in the US, realized this problem and established a charitable clothes closet(衣橱) to help her peers.17.The school let her use a room for the project. Chloe s classmates joined her as well.Last month, the charitable clothes closet, called Chloe s Closet, opened. 18."Confidence is a real issue in middle school, especially when it comes to clothing," Chloe told the Chicago Tribune, a daily newspaper in Chicago, US.19.Many people from the school s community and neighboring schools donated used and new clothes. The clothes closet is only open after school. Students can "buy" these clothes by earning "money" when they turn in their schoolwork on time. make corrections on homework, participate in a school activity or express helpfulness to their peers and teachers. Since the first week in March, about 100 items have been "sold" to students."20.Then, they will be better able to focus on the learning material rather than paying too much attention to what they are wearing, Shannon Arko, a language arts teacher at the school, said about the mission (使命)of the closet. "Feeling good about yourself translates into a better learning experience overall."A.Where are the clothes from?B.Her school supported the idea too.C.Fashion has already become an important part of students' lives.D.You need to supply children with basic needs, such as clothing.E.Despite all these difficulties, she was able to start a charitable clothes closet.F.But not everyone can afford to keep up with the changing fashion trends.G.It' s filled with trendy clothes for girls and boys to help students look their best.三、完形填空I was called into the principal's office but I had no idea what I had done wrong.When I arrived,my brother Brian was there.He had been crying.Brian grabbed my hand and said,Amanda has been in a car 21 ."Every inch of my body went 22 as I realized what he had said.My sister was injured.One question sounded over and over in my head 23 could this have happened?Even though she was only 17,Amanda was one of the 24 drivers I knew.I felt shocked and terrified.My brother and I left immediately 25 the hospital my sister was in.When we arrived,my sister's face was 26 from the eyebrows up and you could see blood everywhere.She was 27 to several machines.My mom and dad stood at her side crying.My sister looked 28 at me with blood﹣filled eyes.In her eyes,where I expected to see 29 ,I saw strength.She said to me,"I love you,Renee.I suddenly realized how 30 I tell my sister I love her.I tried to 31 her,but she wasn't listening any more,32 some doctors were taking her away to the x﹣ray room.As they wheeled her away I wanted to scream out,but I couldnt.I couldn't move,speak or even cry 33 she was around the comer.Then the tears came.Though everyone kept telling me she would be all right,something made me34 .Every moment that passed allowed the 35 in my mind to grow bigger.Finally,the doctor walked down the hall and stood quietly in front of us.It was then that the long﹣awaited 36 came.Amanda was going to be okay.My heart leaped as I realized I still had a sister.She would need a lot of plastic surgery (整容手术),but she was 37 .A year later,38 my sister and I quarrel sometimes,every time I see her face and spot the large scar that stretches across it,I remember to tell her that I 39 her.I remember when I almost didn't have the 40 to tell her again how much I love her.21.A.game B.travel C.accident D.shop 22.A.frozen B.excited C.flexible D.relaxed 23.A.when B.where C.why D.how 24.A.youngest B.safest C.Hardest D.worst 25.A.to B.at C.up D.for 26.A.covered B.knocked C.operated D.hanged27.A.applied B.attached C.fastened D.related 28.A.up B.down C.around D.upon 29.A.belief B.love C.fear D.hope 30.A.frequently B.much C.soon D.rarely 31.A.answer B.refuse C.persuade D.hug 32.A.while B.because C.though D.so 33.A.unless B.since C.after D.until 34.A.angry B.disappointed C.worried D.dissatisfied 35.A.confidence B.doubt C.sympathy D.curiosity 36.A.words B.note C.evidence D.sign 37.A.ill B.afraid C.alone D.alive 38.A.only if B.in case C.now that D.even though 39.A.save B.help C.love D.forgive 40.A.mood B.chance C.time D.courage四、用单词的适当形式完成短文First thing in the morning, I check the social networking website Facebook, only to see how I’ve already fallen behind.
