It's a(n) _30_. Ordering food has been one of the most challenging aspects of my trip. Often times, not every dish has a photograph displayed (展示). _31_ it all becomes a childish guessing game of my father and I guessing what type of vegetables or meat we’re _32_. The experience can be just as difficult and tiring for the waiters as it can be for us. In one of our favorite Sichuan restaurants, it _33_ three waiters and fifteen minutes for us to order only our drinks. I simply wanted water, but my dad wanted to try the fresh juice. There were two problems, however. There were neither pictures nor English on the menu. After several hand gestures (手势)， he ended _34_ ordering just a coca cola to make things easier.One of our most embarrassing (尴尬的)moments, however, was at XiabuXiabu ,a very famous hotpot chain. Whenever we had passed by the restaurant it was always busy, so we thought the place was worth a visit. We walked in and a girl was shouting through her microphone, and to my horror (吓了一跳)she was _35_ to us. We didn’t know how to respond so we moved towards her and simply told her，“ _36_, please.” She nodded to tellus she understood and had us wait until a couple seats opened up. Five minutes later she gestured us to sit down, and as soon as we did. The entire restaurant stared at us. Uncomfortable already, we had the most difficulty ordering our meal. _37_ the waitress was very patient and successfully gave us our food. Although it was not the best food I'd eaten in Beijing, it was certainly _38_ dropping things into the boiling pot of soup and watching the food helplessly went down to the bottom of the pot. Too many times to count, however, noodles or pieces of lettuce slipped through my _39_ onto the table. Once， I tried picking up a dumpling to show my father and _40_ it onto his pants and we both stared at it as it rolled onto the floor. I looked behind me and people were _41_ quietly at my chopstick skills.30.A．pleasure B．experience C．adventure D．event31.A．then B．and C．but D．so32.A．eating B．smelling C．tasting D．looking33.A．opened B．took C．cost D．paid34.A．in B．off C．up D．with35.A．crying B．telling C．speaking D．singing36.A．Chinese B．Help C．Advice D．English37.A．Finally B．Fortunately C．Lastly D．Especially38.A．interesting B．boring C．tiring D．surprising39.A．forks B．knives C．spoons D．chopsticks40.A．fell B．put C．dropped D．got41.A．joking B．talking C．laughing D．asking四、阅读理解（每题1.5分，共15分）(A)A．Beef with Broccoli.B．Steamed Lobster.C．Steamed Fish.D．Roasted Pork.43. With $10, which set dish can you buy?A．Hot & Sour Soup, Sweet & Sour Pork, Steamed Vegetables.B．Wonton Soup, Steamed Fish, Roasted Pork.C．Lemon Chicken, Stir-fried Vegetables, Fried Rice.D．Garlic Pawns, Fried Noodles, Soft Drinks.(B)April Fools' Day's tricksBuggy toothpaste (牙膏）Place a raisin (葡萄干)in the end of the toothpaste tube. When someone squeezes out the paste, they'll get whatlooks like a bug (虫子）along with it.Change the clocksAfter your roommate goes to sleep, change all the clocks in the house by an hour...or four. You won't feel angrier than taking a 4 am shower just to realize you've been fooled. Oh and make sure you set the clocks ahead and not back. You don't want anyone to show up late to work and get in a serious trouble, right?Walky-talky on your petTake a little walky-talky on your pet or hide it somewhere near where it is laying. Walk off to a safe distance where you can keep yourself hidden from others with the other piece. As soon as someone tries to pack up or pat on the back of your pet, say in a strange voice. UI hate you doing this to me.” See them jump with fright and shock.Toothpaste OreoYou buy a box of Oreo cookies and White toothpaste, scrape out all of the white icing off of the Oreo. Then fill the middle of the Oreo with the white toothpaste! Leave them out somewhere so whoever you're tricking can see them. Have a garbage can out and ready for them to spit out!44. Which is NOT the trick in April Fools Day according to the list?A．Put bugs in the toothpaste tube.B．Set the roommate's clock four hours ahead.C．Make your pet “s peak” by walky-talky.D．Replace the white icing of the Oreo with toothpaste.45. How may people feel when they realize they are fooled?A．Excited B．Angry C．Serious D．Sad.(C)Michelle Obama, Kate Moss and Samantha Cameron are three of the most stylish women on the planet but it seems they have their daughters rather than their style know how to thank for that.New research has revealed that women with daughters tend to be more stylish than mothers of sons; a fact partly due to the style advice their daughters offer as they get older.As a result, more than half of the women surveyed (调查）say they trust their daughters' opinion more anyone else's. Even more impressively, 78% of women over the age of 50 say they would be more than happy to let their daughters choose a dress for them. By contrast, just 5% of women say they would turn to their sons for style advice.“Women who don't have daughters may become less interested in style as they grow older but having a daughter, who is conscious of her own style, may keep alive her interest in looking great.” comments psychologist (心理学家）Honey Langcaster-James.“And, because of their close bond (纽带), they also have a source of support, encouragement, and sometimes brutal (无情的）honesty when it comes to their style decisions.“The most common reasons for this are that daughters arc more critical (批判的)， offer good advice, and add an element of competition to look the best while sons seemed not to care and aren't as harsh as daughters.”Interestingly, although mothers tend to trust their daughters' style tips, their confidence isn’t reciprocated (给),with 40% of women between the ages of 19 and 34 saying they wouldn't allow their mothers to shop for them without their advice. A third even said their mothers' lack of wisdom on style left them embarrassed.And although they might not appreciate the fashion advice, the survey, which was conducted by online retailer Gray & Osbourn, showed that daughters do still need their mothers with 71% saying they chat to their female parent every day.“Overall, the research shows just how important relationships are between mothers and daughters.” added Langcaster-Jdmes. “and just how much women appreciate (赞赏）an honest and trustworthy opinion.”46. The daughters may ____.A．offer advice on style to their mothers since young ageB．keep their mothers interested in looking greatC．buy dress for their mothers when they grow olderD．let their mothers shop for them when they grow up47. When it comes to style, the mothers with daughters CAN'T ____.A．receive sharp but good adviceB．compete with daughters to look bestC．make the decision for their daughtersD．communicate well with their daughters48. In order to look stylish， we need ____.A．turn to sons for adviceB．an honest and trustworthy opinionC．a daughter rather than a sonD．a research on relationship between mothers and daughters(D)As she walks. thirty eyes follow her movement. I stare down at the floor, trying to draw my attention away and stay in calm.It's hard to describe the anxiety of a classroom when a teacher is handing back final test scores. We all want to do well, and in that moment, often nothing seems more important than that score at the top of the test. We arc focused, united in our desire and our worry. When my teacher has reached my desk. I scramble (抢夺)to find the score. 43/44. Yes! That's a strong A. My neighbor leans over and asks, “How'd you do?” I tell him, and he rolls his eyes. ”It's just because you're half-Asian. I'd get those grades if I was Chinese, too.”The words hurt, but I've heard them many times before. He's right, in a sense. I am half-Asian. I receive good grades, I have straight hair, and I play the piano, so I guess I fit some of the stereotypes (固定形象).But my school is full of cliques (派系), each group divided by race, personality, and looks. I don't belong with the “Asian” clique. I am similar, but not quite like them, and they don't identify with me the way they do with each other.But I don’t fit in with my all-American friends either. My peers expect that I have perfect grades, and when I don't, they are quick in their judgment and harsh in their laughter. My achievements are often attributed (归因子）to being half-Asian. I am happy about my achievements and satisfied with my lifesty1e, but when the response to my stories are always, “It's just because you're Asian” or “You are so Asia n”，it's hard to just brush the comments away. My friends don't mean to taunt (嘲弄、讥讽)，but something about their tone cuts deep. I never feel quite at home among my friends.Why?My successes are not because part of my family came from China. The reason that I did well on that test was because I had studied. It’s a simple fact, but it’s easily forgotten in the midst of all the generalizations (概括）we tend to make.We shouldn't identify ourselves with only the color of our skin. We each have our own talents, goals, and traditions. Our similarities stretch across borders and are not continued to a particular nation. I know this, yet when my peer turned to me and said. “It’s just because you're Asian” after I told him my test score, I did nothing.I sighed(叹气).turned back to my work, and tried to overlook (忽略) his words.49. The writer feels upset because ____.A．she cares too much about the test scores.B．she doesn't get along well with “Asian” clique.C．she can't change those comments on her.D．she is blamed by her all-American friends.50. What is TRUE about the writer?A．She was born in China and moved to America with her family.B．She always gets perfect grades and respect from her classmates.C．She is not happy about her achievement and life in America.D．She can neither fit in with Asian peers nor all-American peers.51.What can we learn from the passage?A．Asian people have advantages in success.B．Everyone's future depends on themselves.C．All-American students always fail in exams.D．Family is the reason that one becomes successful.五、还原句子（共8分，每小题2分）Every morning, the newspaper chief editor holds a meeting with the reporters. They discuss the main events of the day. Reporters are then sent to cover the events. _52_. They telephone people and fix a time for a face-to-face interview with them. Sometimes they do telephone interviews. Checking information is very important. They go to the newspaper's own library to look up any information that they need. This is called “doing one's homework”._53_. All the people who work on a newspaper must be able to work fast. Reporters have to stop working on one story and start working at once on the important new one. They must find out the new information as quickly as possible._54_. Reporters return, type their stories into the computer and hand them to the editor.The chief editor decides which will be the most important story on the front page. _55_ .Other editors read the stories which the reporters have written and make any necessary changes.Finally, there is no more time left for adding new stories, and the time for printing the newspaper has come. This is done on fast-moving printing machines. The newspapers are then delivered by truck, plane or rail六、阅读与表达（共10分，每小题2分）Twenty years ago, kids in school had never even heard of the Internet. Now, I'll bet you can 't find a single person in your school who hasn't at least heard of it. In fact， many of us use it on a regular basis and even have access to it from our homes! The “net” in Internet really stands for network. A network is two or more computers connected together that information can be shared, or sent from one computer to another. The Internet is a vast resource for all types of information. You may enjoy using it to do research for a school project, downloading your favorite songs or communicating with friends and family. Information is accessed through web pages that companies, organizations and individuals create and post. It’s kind of like a giant bulletin board (布告牌) that the whole world uses! But since anyone can put anything on the Internet, you also have to be careful and use your best judgment and a little common sense.Just because you read something on a piece of paper someone sticks on a bulletin board doesn't mean it’s good information, or even correct .for that matter. So you have to be sure that whoever posted the information knows what they're talking about, especially if you're doing research! But what if you re just emailing people? You still have to be very careful. If you’ve never met the person that you're communicating with online, you could be on dangerous ground! You should never give out any personal information to someone you don't know, not even your name! And just like you can't believe the information on every website out there, you can't rely on what strangers you meet on the Internet tell you either. Just like you could make up things about yourself to tell someone, someone else could do the same to you! In fact, many of us use it on a regular basis and even have access to it from our homes!56.Can we find a single person in our school who hasn't heard of the Internet?57.What does "net" in Internet really stand for?58.What is a network?59.How can we get information on the Internet?60.What is the passage mainly about?七、首字母提示填空(共12分，每小题1分)61. I have known the news a ______ Tommy told me last night.62. Someone is knocking at the door, Emma, would you please a ______ it? I am a bit busy right now.63.I was late for school today, b ______ I had JI traffic accident on my way.64.I don't b ______ what you say. You always tell lies.65. We b ______ for lunch at 11:35 in our school.66.I make it c ______ that I won't go to concert. Do you get me?67.______Does the price c ______ everything we want?68.______His public image is quite d ______ from the real person.69.______Jack is only 15.

In f______. he is only a teacher here.72.______Dad has b ______ a hotel for our family out.八、完成句子(共14分，每小题2分)73.天气这么好！咱们去北海划船吧!What a fine day today! ______ in Beihai.74.我们何不多读些优美的文章呢？__________________________ wonderful articles?75.睡前小故事时间到了。

The little girl, about 5 years old, was talking to her mother about her day, repeating the next stop's name cheerfully, praising hermother's long nails, trying to ___11___ her mother's attention. Her mother just nodded and mumbled （含糊地说）"Mm, hm" with her eyes glued to the screen, busy passing the levels of the game. I watched the girl give a final try to at least get her mum to ___12___ her, but it was no use. Then the little girl turned __13__ , and was in low spirits. It was a shame the mother didn't notice that.It broke my heart and got me wondering what kind of ___14___ would make the mother forget she has the most beautiful thing in the world, the human she created, the person she loves with all her heart? What it meant when she couldn't look into her daughter's eyes and even stop to listen to the girl?Some parents are almost like the teenagers, always on their phones with mindless games or going through Facebook. Perhaps parents have many things to deal with, but sometimes they are ___15___ to their kids.This is not an isolated example. I've seen too many such examples. I might not be a parent myself, and probably still have a long way ___16___ becoming one, but I know what I saw isn't right.The scene used to be seen among teenagers very often when parents complained how their children were crazy about their mobile phones. Look how the situation has__17__! The parents have become "technology slaves", that is to say, they can't___18___themselves while using mobile phones. Now some middle-aged parents hold their smart phones and play the simple games every day. I'm uncertain whether to laugh or to cry. But my hope is that this storm passes.11．A．give B．pay C．draw D．hold12．A．look at B．think about C．talk to D．care for13．A．excited B．silent C．surprised D．noisy14．A．program B．computer C．phone D．game15．A．something B．nothing C．everything D．anything16．A．before B．after C．since D．until 17．A．developed B．improved C．changed D．monitored 18．A．control B．enjoy C．trust D．behave 三、阅读单选Have you collected anything since you were young?

His daughter, Carol, was five years old. She was a student at the local public school. Carol did not have a very big role in the school play. She was just playing a rain cloud in a play about the drought in California. Carol had just one line. Her line was, "I am sad enough to cry about how dry the state is."Jaime and his wife made sure to arrive early so that they could get a good seat to watch the show. They found seats in the front row. Before the show began, the schoolmaster made an introductory speech. The speech was about how hard the students and teachers worked together to make the play possible. At the end of the speech, the schoolmaster said, "Let's give the school staff a hand".Jaime, whose English was not very good, stood up when the schoolmaster said this. He knew that when people said "to give someone a hand" they meant they needed help. Jaime always wanted to help, especially at his daughter's school. Jaime thought maybe they needed help backstage.Jaime's wife put her arm in front of her husband. "Where are you going?" she asked in a low voice. "They need a hand," Jaime replied. His wife explained that "to give someone a hand" could also mean to applaud（鼓掌）someone. When you applaud someone you clap your hands（拍手）after their performance. You are not supposed to stand up and try to help others. "They don't need help. They just want us to clap," Jaime's wife explained. Jaime felt a little embarrassed. He sat back down and began clapping along with the rest of the audience.Jaime thought to himself that someone needed to give the English language a hand. How could one phrase mean two different things? He meant the English language needed help. 22．Why did Jaime and his wife arrive at the play early?A．To talk to other parents.B．To wish their daughter good luck. C．To get good seats to watch the show.D．To listen to the speech of the schoolmaster.23．Jaime thought "giving someone a hand" meant __________.A．helping someone B．clapping your handsC．holding someone's hand D．giving your hand to someone24．What can we learn from the passage?A．Jaime stood up to applaud.B．Jaime is a warm-hearted man. C．Jaime was better at English than his wife.D．Jaime's daughter played an important role in the show.Money is what people use to buy things they need or want. A long time ago, people didn't use money. So how did they get the things they wanted? Well, there is a long and interesting story about this.At first, they would exchange something they had for something they needed. For example, if the shoemaker needed some bread, he would give the baker shoes and the baker would give him bread. This was called "bartering". Bartering worked fine for a while. But after the baker had too many shoes, the shoemaker still needed more bread. What could they do? The solution to this problem was money.Money is basically an agreement among people. People agree that some metal or paper will be worth a certain amount of bread or a certain number of shoes. There were many earlier forms of money, such as cattle, salt, grain（谷物）and shells. But it was not easy to move them or store them.So coins began to take the place of things. Coins had a set value and could be stored long. A coin says right on it how much it is worth. Different coins are worth different amounts. It became possible for people to trade in a standardized（标准）way.About three hundred years ago, paper money came into wider use. Paper money is cheaper to make than coins. It is also easier to carry around. Now people use paper money and coins in most countries. We call these kinds of money cash.Cash has been popular for hundreds of years. But these days, things seem to have changed. Cashless payment（无现金支付）has come into our lives and changed our world.China was the first country in the world to use paper money. Now, centuries later, analysts（分析家）believe that China may soon become the first cashless society. Cashless payment apps such as Alipay and WeChat Pay are becoming more common in China. The buyer just scans（扫描）the quick-respond code（二维码）of the seller, or the other way around. Then they can get the things they want. No physical money is needed in this process. Is tomorrow already here?25．Which is the correct order of the development of money?①Coins①Bartering①Paper money①Cashless payment①Cattle, grain and shellsA．①①①①①B．①①①①①C．①①①①①D．①①①①①26．What can we learn from the passage?A．Coins are the earliest form of money in the world.B．People cannot buy things by showing the quick-respond code.C．Both coins and paper money are very popular around the world.D．Paper money costs more to make than coins because they are worth more.27．What does the author want to tell us in the last paragraph?A．China is the first cashless country in the world.B．People will start using cashless payment tomorrow.C．People won't use any physical money in the future.D．Cashless payment is the new stage of money development.Superhero movies and TV shows are very popular today. A new study shows something is missing from superhero stories, though. Most popular superheroes are men. The new study says kids want to see more superheroes who are women.The study was done by two groups. One is the Women's Media Center. The other is BBC America. The Women's Media Center is a charity（慈善）group. It fights for fair treatment （待遇）of women in things like TV and movies. BBC America is a TV channel.More than 2,000 people took part in the study. Some were kids aged from 10 to 19. Others were the parents of younger children.Not Enough Strong Woman CharactersThe study shows that most girls feel there are not enough female role models in entertainment（娱乐）. They think there should be more strong female characters. They want to see superheroes that look like them. Boys answered questions in the study, too. Most agreed with the girls. They want to see more female superheroes, like Wonder Woman.Julie Burton runs the Women's Media Center. She said TV and movies had to make changes. They must provide more role models for girls. Female characters should reflect（反映）girls of all different backgrounds, she said. It is important for all to see people who look like them in entertainment.Helping Girls Feel More Brave and ConfidentBurton said seeing strong female characters is important for girls. It helps them build confidence. These characters give girls someone to look up to, she explained. This can inspire girls. It can also help them to feel brave.Sarah Barnett agrees. She runs BBC America. "If you can't see her, you can't be her," Barnett said.The study asked girls how they feel when they see powerful female characters on screen. The results were interesting. They showed that seeing female characters has a big effect on girls. Boys like seeing male superheroes on screen. But the study showed the effect on boys was smaller. Maybe that is because seeing male superheroes is pretty common. Female superheroes are rarer. Seeing them is more exciting.More Women in EntertainmentThe report is a part of a new plan at BBC America. It is called #Galaxy Of Women. The goal is to improve how women are shown in entertainment.The study came out the day after BBC America started a new season of "Doctor Who". It is a popular science fiction show. The Doctor is an alien（外星人）who can travel through time and change bodies. Twelve different actors have played the Doctor since the show started in 1963. This season, the Doctor is a woman, played by Jodie Whittaker. This is the first time the Doctor has been played by a woman.28．What can we learn from the passage?A．The study was done by Men's Media Center and BBC．B．There are enough women superheroes in entertainment.C．Julie Burton believes TV and movies need to make changes.D．More than 2,000 kids aged from 10 to 19 took part in the study.29．What do the underlined sentences mean? Maybe that is because _________.A．male superheroes are strong, and female superheroes are pretty.B．there are more chances to see male superheroes compared to female ones.C．seeing male superheroes is more exciting than seeing female superheroes.D．it is less likely to see male superhero characters than female ones on screen.30．Why did BBC America start the #Galaxy Of Women?A．To make sure there was a woman Doctor on screen.B．To better the way women appeared on TV and films.C．Because BBC America had a new plan and it was a part of it.D．Because the new season of science fiction "Doctor Who" was popular.31．What's the best title for the passage?A．Is It Good to See Superheroes?B．More Superheroes, More confidence C．More Strong Female Characters or Not?D．Science Fiction and Women Characters 阅读理解Google is a company's name, but it has also grown into a verb that means, "to do an Internet search." Now everyone and their grandma know what it means to Google it. You know that you're doing something big when your company name becomes a verb.Google wasn't the first company to invent their product. Lycos released their search engine in 1993. Yahoo! came out in 1994. AltaVista began serving results in 1995. Google did not come out until 1998. That is a major head start in the fast moving world of tech. So how did Google overtake（超过）their competitors who had such huge leads in time and money? Maybe one good idea made all the difference.There are millions of sites on the Internet. How does a search engine know which ones are relevant to your search? This is a question that great minds have been working on for decades. To understand how Google changed the game, you need to know how search engines worked in 1998. Back then most websites looked at the words in your query（查询）.They counted how many times those words appeared on each page. Then they might return pages where the words in your query appeared the most. This system did not work well and people often had to click through pages of results to find what they wanted.Google was the first search engine that began considering links. Links are those blue underlined words that take you to other pages when you click on them. Larry Page, cofounder of Google, believed that meaningful data could be drawn from how those links connect. He was right. Google's search results were much better than their rivals'（对手）.They would soon become the world's most used search engine.It wasn't just the great search results that led to Google becoming so well liked. It also had to do with the way that they presented their product. The home pages of most other search engines were filled with all kinds of things. But Google's homepage was, and still is, clean. There's nothing on it but the logo, the search box, and a few links. In fact, when they were first testing it, users would wait at the home page and not do anything. When asked why, they said that they were "waiting for the rest of the page to load". But the fresh design grewon people once they got used to it.These days Google has its hands in everything from self-driving cars to helping humans live longer. Though they have many other popular products, they will always be best known for their search engine. Not only is Google search engine a fantastic product, it is a standing example that one good idea（and a lot of hard work）can change the world.32．Which might be a reason why Google became so popular?A．Google's homepage was clean.B．Google's homepage loaded quickly.C．Google provided a lot of information on their homepage.D．Google counted the times of the words appeared in query.33．What is the author's purpose in writing this article?A．To explain how Google overtook its rivals.B．To compare Google and other search engines.C．To persuade readers to use Google for Internet searches.D．To discuss how companies can influence language over time.34．What is the main idea of the fourth paragraph?A．Links allow people to surf from one website to the next.B．Google is a website that serves important links to users.C．Larry Page contributed to the Internet by inventing the link.D．Larry Page's ideas about links helped Google get to the top.35．What is the best title for the passage?A．A Short History of Search EnginesB．A Better Way: How Google Rose to the TopC．Yahoo! vs Google: War of the Big CompaniesD．How Search Engines Work and Why They're Important四、阅读回答问题阅读短文，根据短文内容回答问题。

It's a(n) _30_. Ordering food has been one of the most challenging aspects of my trip. Often times, not every dish has a photograph displayed (展示). _31_ it all becomes a childish guessing game of my father and I guessing what type of vegetables or meat we’re _32_. The experience can be just as difficult and tiring for the waiters as it can be for us. In one of our favorite Sichuan restaurants, it _33_ three waiters and fifteen minutes for us to order only our drinks. I simply wanted water, but my dad wanted to try the fresh juice. There were two problems, however. There were neither pictures nor English on the menu. After several hand gestures (手势)， he ended _34_ ordering just a coca cola to make things easier.One of our most embarrassing (尴尬的)moments, however, was at XiabuXiabu ,a very famous hotpot chain. Whenever we had passed by the restaurant it was always busy, so we thought the place was worth a visit. We walked in and a girl was shouting through her microphone, and to my horror (吓了一跳)she was _35_ to us. We didn’t know how to respond so we moved towards her and simply told her，“ _36_, please.” She nodded to tellus she understood and had us wait until a couple seats opened up. Five minutes later she gestured us to sit down, and as soon as we did. The entire restaurant stared at us. Uncomfortable already, we had the most difficulty ordering our meal. _37_ the waitress was very patient and successfully gave us our food. Although it was not the best food I'd eaten in Beijing, it was certainly _38_ dropping things into the boiling pot of soup and watching the food helplessly went down to the bottom of the pot. Too many times to count, however, noodles or pieces of lettuce slipped through my _39_ onto the table. Once， I tried picking up a dumpling to show my father and _40_ it onto his pants and we both stared at it as it rolled onto the floor. I looked behind me and people were _41_ quietly at my chopstick skills.30.A．pleasure B．experience C．adventure D．event31.A．then B．and C．but D．so32.A．eating B．smelling C．tasting D．looking33.A．opened B．took C．cost D．paid34.A．in B．off C．up D．with35.A．crying B．telling C．speaking D．singing36.A．Chinese B．Help C．Advice D．English37.A．Finally B．Fortunately C．Lastly D．Especially38.A．interesting B．boring C．tiring D．surprising39.A．forks B．knives C．spoons D．chopsticks40.A．fell B．put C．dropped D．got41.A．joking B．talking C．laughing D．asking四、阅读理解（每题1.5分，共15分）(A)A．Beef with Broccoli.B．Steamed Lobster.C．Steamed Fish.D．Roasted Pork.43.

When someone squeezes out the paste, they'll get whatlooks like a bug (虫子）along with it.Change the clocksAfter your roommate goes to sleep, change all the clocks in the house by an hour...or four. You won't feel angrier than taking a 4 am shower just to realize you've been fooled. Oh and make sure you set the clocks ahead and not back. You don't want anyone to show up late to work and get in a serious trouble, right?Walky-talky on your petTake a little walky-talky on your pet or hide it somewhere near where it is laying. Walk off to a safe distance where you can keep yourself hidden from others with the other piece. As soon as someone tries to pack up or pat on the back of your pet, say in a strange voice. UI hate you doing this to me.” See them jump with fright and shock.Toothpaste OreoYou buy a box of Oreo cookies and White toothpaste, scrape out all of the white icing off of the Oreo. Then fill the middle of the Oreo with the white toothpaste! Leave them out somewhere so whoever you're tricking can see them. Have a garbage can out and ready for them to spit out!44. Which is NOT the trick in April Fools Day according to the list?A．Put bugs in the toothpaste tube.B．Set the roommate's clock four hours ahead.C．Make your pet “s peak” by walky-talky.D．Replace the white icing of the Oreo with toothpaste.45. How may people feel when they realize they are fooled?A．Excited B．Angry C．Serious D．Sad.(C)Michelle Obama, Kate Moss and Samantha Cameron are three of the most stylish women on the planet but it seems they have their daughters rather than their style know how to thank for that.New research has revealed that women with daughters tend to be more stylish than mothers of sons; a fact partly due to the style advice their daughters offer as they get older.As a result, more than half of the women surveyed (调查）say they trust their daughters' opinion more anyone else's. Even more impressively, 78% of women over the age of 50 say they would be more than happy to let their daughters choose a dress for them. By contrast, just 5% of women say they would turn to their sons for style advice.“Women who don't have daughters may become less interested in style as they grow older but having a daughter, who is conscious of her own style, may keep alive her interest in looking great.” comments psychologist (心理学家）Honey Langcaster-James.“And, because of their close bond (纽带), they also have a source of support, encouragement, and sometimes brutal (无情的）honesty when it comes to their style decisions.“The most common reasons for this are that daughters arc more critical (批判的)， offer good advice, and add an element of competition to look the best while sons seemed not to care and aren't as harsh as daughters.”Interestingly, although mothers tend to trust their daughters' style tips, their confidence isn’t reciprocated (给),with 40% of women between the ages of 19 and 34 saying they wouldn't allow their mothers to shop for them without their advice. A third even said their mothers' lack of wisdom on style left them embarrassed.And although they might not appreciate the fashion advice, the survey, which was conducted by online retailer Gray & Osbourn, showed that daughters do still need their mothers with 71% saying they chat to their female parent every day.“Overall, the research shows just how important relationships are between mothers and daughters.” added Langcaster-Jdmes. “and just how much women appreciate (赞赏）an honest and trustworthy opinion.”46. The daughters may ____.A．offer advice on style to their mothers since young ageB．keep their mothers interested in looking greatC．buy dress for their mothers when they grow olderD．let their mothers shop for them when they grow up47. When it comes to style, the mothers with daughters CAN'T ____.A．receive sharp but good adviceB．compete with daughters to look bestC．make the decision for their daughtersD．communicate well with their daughters48. In order to look stylish， we need ____.A．turn to sons for adviceB．an honest and trustworthy opinionC．a daughter rather than a sonD．a research on relationship between mothers and daughters(D)As she walks. thirty eyes follow her movement. I stare down at the floor, trying to draw my attention away and stay in calm.It's hard to describe the anxiety of a classroom when a teacher is handing back final test scores. We all want to do well, and in that moment, often nothing seems more important than that score at the top of the test. We arc focused, united in our desire and our worry. When my teacher has reached my desk. I scramble (抢夺)to find the score. 43/44. Yes! That's a strong A. My neighbor leans over and asks, “How'd you do?” I tell him, and he rolls his eyes. ”It's just because you're half-Asian. I'd get those grades if I was Chinese, too.”The words hurt, but I've heard them many times before. He's right, in a sense. I am half-Asian. I receive good grades, I have straight hair, and I play the piano, so I guess I fit some of the stereotypes (固定形象).But my school is full of cliques (派系), each group divided by race, personality, and looks. I don't belong with the “Asian” clique. I am similar, but not quite like them, and they don't identify with me the way they do with each other.But I don’t fit in with my all-American friends either. My peers expect that I have perfect grades, and when I don't, they are quick in their judgment and harsh in their laughter. My achievements are often attributed (归因子）to being half-Asian. I am happy about my achievements and satisfied with my lifesty1e, but when the response to my stories are always, “It's just because you're Asian” or “You are so Asia n”，it's hard to just brush the comments away. My friends don't mean to taunt (嘲弄、讥讽)，but something about their tone cuts deep. I never feel quite at home among my friends.Why?My successes are not because part of my family came from China. The reason that I did well on that test was because I had studied. It’s a simple fact, but it’s easily forgotten in the midst of all the generalizations (概括）we tend to make.We shouldn't identify ourselves with only the color of our skin. We each have our own talents, goals, and traditions. Our similarities stretch across borders and are not continued to a particular nation. I know this, yet when my peer turned to me and said. “It’s just because you're Asian” after I told him my test score, I did nothing.I sighed(叹气).turned back to my work, and tried to overlook (忽略) his words.49. The writer feels upset because ____.A．she cares too much about the test scores.B．she doesn't get along well with “Asian” clique.C．she can't change those comments on her.D．she is blamed by her all-American friends.50. What is TRUE about the writer?A．She was born in China and moved to America with her family.B．She always gets perfect grades and respect from her classmates.C．She is not happy about her achievement and life in America.D．She can neither fit in with Asian peers nor all-American peers.51.What can we learn from the passage?A．Asian people have advantages in success.B．Everyone's future depends on themselves.C．All-American students always fail in exams.D．Family is the reason that one becomes successful.五、还原句子（共8分，每小题2分）Every morning, the newspaper chief editor holds a meeting with the reporters. They discuss the main events of the day. Reporters are then sent to cover the events. _52_. They telephone people and fix a time for a face-to-face interview with them. Sometimes they do telephone interviews. Checking information is very important. They go to the newspaper's own library to look up any information that they need. This is called “doing one's homework”._53_. All the people who work on a newspaper must be able to work fast. Reporters have to stop working on one story and start working at once on the important new one. They must find out the new information as quickly as possible._54_. Reporters return, type their stories into the computer and hand them to the editor.The chief editor decides which will be the most important story on the front page. _55_ .Other editors read the stories which the reporters have written and make any necessary changes.Finally, there is no more time left for adding new stories, and the time for printing the newspaper has come. This is done on fast-moving printing machines. The newspapers are then delivered by truck, plane or rail六、阅读与表达（共10分，每小题2分）Twenty years ago, kids in school had never even heard of the Internet. Now, I'll bet you can 't find a single person in your school who hasn't at least heard of it. In fact， many of us use it on a regular basis and even have access to it from our homes! The “net” in Internet really stands for network. A network is two or more computers connected together that information can be shared, or sent from one computer to another. The Internet is a vast resource for all types of information. You may enjoy using it to do research for a school project, downloading your favorite songs or communicating with friends and family. Information is accessed through web pages that companies, organizations and individuals create and post. It’s kind of like a giant bulletin board (布告牌) that the whole world uses! But since anyone can put anything on the Internet, you also have to be careful and use your best judgment and a little common sense.Just because you read something on a piece of paper someone sticks on a bulletin board doesn't mean it’s good information, or even correct .for that matter. So you have to be sure that whoever posted the information knows what they're talking about, especially if you're doing research! But what if you re just emailing people? You still have to be very careful. If you’ve never met the person that you're communicating with online, you could be on dangerous ground! You should never give out any personal information to someone you don't know, not even your name! And just like you can't believe the information on every website out there, you can't rely on what strangers you meet on the Internet tell you either. Just like you could make up things about yourself to tell someone, someone else could do the same to you! In fact, many of us use it on a regular basis and even have access to it from our homes!56.Can we find a single person in our school who hasn't heard of the Internet?57.What does "net" in Internet really stand for?58.What is a network?59.How can we get information on the Internet?60.What is the passage mainly about?七、首字母提示填空(共12分，每小题1分)61.

It's a(n) _30_. Ordering food has been one of the most challenging aspects of my trip. Often times, not every dish has a photograph displayed (展示). _31_ it all becomes a childish guessing game of my father and I guessing what type of vegetables or meat we’re _32_. The experience can be just as difficult and tiring for the waiters as it can be for us. In one of our favorite Sichuan restaurants, it _33_ three waiters and fifteen minutes for us to order only our drinks. I simply wanted water, but my dad wanted to try the fresh juice. There were two problems, however. There were neither pictures nor English on the menu. After several hand gestures (手势)， he ended _34_ ordering just a coca cola to make things easier.One of our most embarrassing (尴尬的)moments, however, was at XiabuXiabu ,a very famous hotpot chain. Whenever we had passed by the restaurant it was always busy, so we thought the place was worth a visit. We walked in and a girl was shouting through her microphone, and to my horror (吓了一跳)she was _35_ to us. We didn’t know how to respond so we moved towards her and simply told her，“ _36_, please.” She nodded to tellus she understood and had us wait until a couple seats opened up. Five minutes later she gestured us to sit down, and as soon as we did. The entire restaurant stared at us. Uncomfortable already, we had the most difficulty ordering our meal. _37_ the waitress was very patient and successfully gave us our food. Although it was not the best food I'd eaten in Beijing, it was certainly _38_ dropping things into the boiling pot of soup and watching the food helplessly went down to the bottom of the pot. Too many times to count, however, noodles or pieces of lettuce slipped through my _39_ onto the table. Once， I tried picking up a dumpling to show my father and _40_ it onto his pants and we both stared at it as it rolled onto the floor. I looked behind me and people were _41_ quietly at my chopstick skills.30.A．pleasure B．experience C．adventure D．event31.A．then B．and C．but D．so32.A．eating B．smelling C．tasting D．looking33.A．opened B．took C．cost D．paid34.A．in B．off C．up D．with35.A．crying B．telling C．speaking D．singing36.A．Chinese B．Help C．Advice D．English37.A．Finally B．Fortunately C．Lastly D．Especially38.A．interesting B．boring C．tiring D．surprising39.A．forks B．knives C．spoons D．chopsticks40.A．fell B．put C．dropped D．got41.A．joking B．talking C．laughing D．asking四、阅读理解（每题1.5分，共15分）(A)A．Beef with Broccoli.B．Steamed Lobster.C．Steamed Fish.D．Roasted Pork.43. With $10, which set dish can you buy?A．Hot & Sour Soup, Sweet & Sour Pork, Steamed Vegetables.B．Wonton Soup, Steamed Fish, Roasted Pork.C．Lemon Chicken, Stir-fried Vegetables, Fried Rice.D．Garlic Pawns, Fried Noodles, Soft Drinks.(B)April Fools' Day's tricksBuggy toothpaste (牙膏）Place a raisin (葡萄干)in the end of the toothpaste tube. When someone squeezes out the paste, they'll get whatlooks like a bug (虫子）along with it.Change the clocksAfter your roommate goes to sleep, change all the clocks in the house by an hour...or four. You won't feel angrier than taking a 4 am shower just to realize you've been fooled. Oh and make sure you set the clocks ahead and not back. You don't want anyone to show up late to work and get in a serious trouble, right?Walky-talky on your petTake a little walky-talky on your pet or hide it somewhere near where it is laying. Walk off to a safe distance where you can keep yourself hidden from others with the other piece. As soon as someone tries to pack up or pat on the back of your pet, say in a strange voice. UI hate you doing this to me.” See them jump with fright and shock.Toothpaste OreoYou buy a box of Oreo cookies and White toothpaste, scrape out all of the white icing off of the Oreo. Then fill the middle of the Oreo with the white toothpaste! Leave them out somewhere so whoever you're tricking can see them. Have a garbage can out and ready for them to spit out!44. Which is NOT the trick in April Fools Day according to the list?A．Put bugs in the toothpaste tube.B．Set the roommate's clock four hours ahead.C．Make your pet “s peak” by walky-talky.D．Replace the white icing of the Oreo with toothpaste.45. How may people feel when they realize they are fooled?A．Excited B．Angry C．Serious D．Sad.(C)Michelle Obama, Kate Moss and Samantha Cameron are three of the most stylish women on the planet but it seems they have their daughters rather than their style know how to thank for that.New research has revealed that women with daughters tend to be more stylish than mothers of sons; a fact partly due to the style advice their daughters offer as they get older.As a result, more than half of the women surveyed (调查）say they trust their daughters' opinion more anyone else's. Even more impressively, 78% of women over the age of 50 say they would be more than happy to let their daughters choose a dress for them. By contrast, just 5% of women say they would turn to their sons for style advice.“Women who don't have daughters may become less interested in style as they grow older but having a daughter, who is conscious of her own style, may keep alive her interest in looking great.” comments psychologist (心理学家）Honey Langcaster-James.“And, because of their close bond (纽带), they also have a source of support, encouragement, and sometimes brutal (无情的）honesty when it comes to their style decisions.“The most common reasons for this are that daughters arc more critical (批判的)， offer good advice, and add an element of competition to look the best while sons seemed not to care and aren't as harsh as daughters.”Interestingly, although mothers tend to trust their daughters' style tips, their confidence isn’t reciprocated (给),with 40% of women between the ages of 19 and 34 saying they wouldn't allow their mothers to shop for them without their advice. A third even said their mothers' lack of wisdom on style left them embarrassed.And although they might not appreciate the fashion advice, the survey, which was conducted by online retailer Gray & Osbourn, showed that daughters do still need their mothers with 71% saying they chat to their female parent every day.“Overall, the research shows just how important relationships are between mothers and daughters.” added Langcaster-Jdmes. “and just how much women appreciate (赞赏）an honest and trustworthy opinion.”46. The daughters may ____.A．offer advice on style to their mothers since young ageB．keep their mothers interested in looking greatC．buy dress for their mothers when they grow olderD．let their mothers shop for them when they grow up47. When it comes to style, the mothers with daughters CAN'T ____.A．receive sharp but good adviceB．compete with daughters to look bestC．make the decision for their daughtersD．communicate well with their daughters48. In order to look stylish， we need ____.A．turn to sons for adviceB．an honest and trustworthy opinionC．a daughter rather than a sonD．a research on relationship between mothers and daughters(D)As she walks. thirty eyes follow her movement. I stare down at the floor, trying to draw my attention away and stay in calm.It's hard to describe the anxiety of a classroom when a teacher is handing back final test scores. We all want to do well, and in that moment, often nothing seems more important than that score at the top of the test. We arc focused, united in our desire and our worry. When my teacher has reached my desk. I scramble (抢夺)to find the score. 43/44. Yes! That's a strong A. My neighbor leans over and asks, “How'd you do?” I tell him, and he rolls his eyes. ”It's just because you're half-Asian. I'd get those grades if I was Chinese, too.”The words hurt, but I've heard them many times before. He's right, in a sense. I am half-Asian. I receive good grades, I have straight hair, and I play the piano, so I guess I fit some of the stereotypes (固定形象).But my school is full of cliques (派系), each group divided by race, personality, and looks. I don't belong with the “Asian” clique. I am similar, but not quite like them, and they don't identify with me the way they do with each other.But I don’t fit in with my all-American friends either. My peers expect that I have perfect grades, and when I don't, they are quick in their judgment and harsh in their laughter. My achievements are often attributed (归因子）to being half-Asian.

The reason that I did well on that test was because I had studied. It’s a simple fact, but it’s easily forgotten in the midst of all the generalizations (概括）we tend to make.We shouldn't identify ourselves with only the color of our skin. We each have our own talents, goals, and traditions. Our similarities stretch across borders and are not continued to a particular nation. I know this, yet when my peer turned to me and said. “It’s just because you're Asian” after I told him my test score, I did nothing.I sighed(叹气).turned back to my work, and tried to overlook (忽略) his words.49. The writer feels upset because ____.A．she cares too much about the test scores.B．she doesn't get along well with “Asian” clique.C．she can't change those comments on her.D．she is blamed by her all-American friends.50.

One day, I took an underground to work, I saw something that made me very sad.On the tube （the underground in London）, a mother kept looking at her phone screen and playing a game with her daughter sitting beside her. The little girl, about 5 years old, was talkingto her mother about her day, repeating the next stop's name cheerfully, praising her mother's long nails, trying to 25 her mother's attention. Her mother just nodded and mumbled （含糊地说）"Mm, hm" with her eyes glued to the screen, busy passing the levels of the game. I watched the girl give a final try to at least get her mum to 26 her, but it was no use. Then the little girl turned 27 , and was in low spirits. It was a shame the mother didn't notice that.It broke my heart and got me wondering what kind of 28 would make the mother forget she has the most beautiful thing in the world, the human she created, the person she loves with all her heart? What it meant when she couldn't look into her daughter's eyes and even stop to listen to the girl?Some parents are almost like the teenagers, always on their phones with mindless games or going through Facebook. Perhaps parents have many things to deal with, but sometimes they are 29 to their kids.This is not an isolated example. I've seen too many such examples. I might not be a parent myself, and probably still have a long way 30 becoming one, but I know what I saw isn't right.The scene used to be seen among teenagers very often when parents complained how their children were crazy about their mobile phones. Look how the situation has 31 ! The parents have become "technology slaves", that is to say, they can't 32 themselves while using mobile phones. Now some middle-aged parents hold their smart phones and play the simple games every day. I'm uncertain whether to laugh or to cry. But my hope is that this storm passes.25. A. give B. pay C. draw D. hold26. A. look at B. think about C. talk to D. care for27. A. excited B. silent C. surprised D. noisy28. A. program B. computer C. phone D. game29. A. something B. nothing C. everything D. anything30. A. before B. after C. since D. until31. A. developed B. improved C. changed D. monitored32. A. control B. enjoy C. trust D. behave阅读理解（共34分）五、阅读下面短文，根据短文内容，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选择最佳选项。
