I know what you’re thinking: pizza? For breakfast? But the truth is that you can have last night’s leftovers in the morning if you want to.
I know lots of women who don’t have breakfast, and they have many different excuses for doing it. Some say they don’t have time, others think they’re “saving” calories （卡路里）, still others just don’t like breakfast food.
But eating in the morning is very important when you’re trying to lose weight. Eating just about anything from 300 to 400 calories would be better than nothing at all.
Breakfast is one meal I never miss, and the same goes for most weight loss success stories. Research shows that eating breakfast keeps you from overeating later in the day. Researchers found that those who don’t have breakfast have a bigger chance of gaining weight than those who regularly have a morning meal.
So eat something in the morning, anything. I know plenty of friends who end up having no breakfast altogether, and have just coffee or orange juice. I say, try heating up last night’s leftovers-it may sound crazy, but if it works for you, do it! I find if I tell myself, “You can always eat it tomorrow,”I put away the leftovers instead of eating more that night. Try it…you may save yourself some pre-bedtime calories. And watch your body gain the fat-burning effects
24.The word “leftovers” in Paragraph 1 probably means __________
A. pizza topped with fruit
B. things left undone
C. food remaining after a meal
D. meals made of vegetables
25.According to the last paragraph, it is important to__________
A. be careful about what you eat
B.eat something for breakfast
C. heat up food before eating it
D.eat calorie-controlled food
26.What can we infer from the text?
A. Many people have wrong ideas about breakfast
B. Working women usually have breakfast in a hurry
C. There are some easy ways of cooking a meal
D. Eating vegetables helps save energy
27.The text is written mainly for those__________
A. who go to work early
B. who go to bed late
C. who eat before sleep
D. who want to lose weight
C
A rescue center in Alaska has taken in an orphaned baby seal(海豹) that was still in the body when a hunter killed its mother on Easter Sunday.
The Alaska Sea Life Center says a hunter killed the baby’s mother in a village on Nelson Island in the Bering Sea. The hunter then realized there was a live baby inside the seal and successfully delivered(接生) it.
The hunter’s daughter found a hotline of the Seward Rescue Center and called to report the incident. Guided by center staff, a village teacher helped transport the baby to the local airport, and the animal was flown to Anchorage. The Alaska Sea Life Center members met the baby, now called Maxwell, at the Anchorage airport and drove him to Seward on Monday. Staff members say the baby has responded well to food and care, but his condition is still considered very serious.
“ Maxwell was close to full-term, and everything looks fairly normal,” said Pam Tuomi, a center vet. “ But babies that have never received antibodies(抗体) from their mother s’ milk are at higher risk of infection(感染) , so we will keep Maxwell in a separate place and watch him closely for the next few weeks.”
The Sea Life Center is Alaska’s only permanent facility licensed to house stranded marine mammals and seabirds. Staff choose a theme each year for naming animals admitted there, and this year the names are related to caffeine.
“We hope to give Maxwell a second chance to live as a wild seal,”said Brett Long, the center’s director.
28.What can we learn from the passage？
A．The mother seal was killed in order to protect the baby seal.
B．The mother seal was killed before the baby seal was born.
C．The cruel hunter was unwilling to save the baby seal.
D．Both the mother seal and the baby seal were in good condition now.
29.What did the hunter’s daughter do with the baby seal?
A．She helped to feed it.
B．She delivered it successfully.
C．She reported it to a rescue center.
D．She persuaded her father to save it.
30.The underlined “ him” in the third paragraph probably refers to _________. A．the hunter B. the baby seal C. a member of the center D. the village teacher
31.Maxwell is at high risk of infection because __________.
A. it was born too early
B. there are no antibodies in its body
C. it can’t get used to the life in the center
D. it can’t be taken good care of in the center
D
Now we answer a question from Bangladesh. Our listener wants to know about the history of the number 13 and why Americans consider this number to be bad luck.
It is not only Americans who consider this number to be unlucky. People around the world have what are called superstitions(迷信) about the number 13. Superstitions are popular beliefs that are not based on reason or science. A person believes something brings good or bad luck.
This fear is so strong around the world that many tall buildings do not have a 13th level. And, many airports do not have gate numbered 13. Even some cities and towns skip over 13th Street. The number 13 is not an object or a situation, and it can be impossible for the sufferer to avoid.
Some experts say fears about this number come from ancient religious stories. One Norse myth(神话) is about twelve gods who were having a party in their heaven, Valhalla. Loke, the god of evil and disorder, arrived at the dinner party uninvited. He became the 13th person at the table. Loki then helped cause the death of Balder, the god of joy.
In the Christian book, the Bible, Judas is the 13th guest at the dinner called the Last Supper, Judas is the man who betrays(背叛) Jesus, leading to his death.
Many people around the world also consider Fridays that fall on the 13th day of a month to be especially bad luck.
Many cultures have traditions of unlucky numbers other than 13. These beliefs, like our fear of 13, are mostly rooted in ancient events that were somehow connected with the number in question. The fear of numbers is a very real fear for many people. It appears to be an ancient and widespread fear whose origins may never be fully understood.
32.The underlined phrase “skip over” in Paragraph3 means_____________.
A. Include
B. cancel
C. divide
D. prefer
33.What’s the main idea of the third paragraph?
A.Why the number 13 is rarely seen in public places.
B.The fear of number 13 must be dealt with seriously.
C.The fear of number 13 is common in the world.
D.The number 13 causes much trouble in people’s lives.
34.According to the Norse myth, the number 13 is unlucky because the 13th guest _________.
A.kelled the god of joy at the dinner table
B.brought bad luck to the others at the party
C.helped cause the death of Jesus at supper
D.helped cause the death of Balder
35.The passage is probably taken from ___________.
A. a history book
B. a radio program
C. a science magazine
D. a travel guide 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。

选项中有两项为多余选项。

Bedrooms
Bedrooms are very important. In fact, you spend one third of your life in yours. This means that you probably don’t want a boring bedroom. You will not want a bedroom full of so many things that you can’t get to your bed, or that is painted in your least favorite color. 36
When you are designing(设计) a bedroom and you don’t know what to do with some space in the corner, you may want to see if you can fit in a desk or a small sitting
area. 37 You might want to fill this space to get some more storage(储存)space or have somewhere to have some privacy.
Furniture is not the only thing to consider when you design your bedroom. 38 If you aren’t sure what to do, just keep your walls and furniture white, and make sure that little things are also in the same style（风格）.
39 You can put up dry erase boards, chalk boards, and pictures to give your room some style. You may also want to put in a bedside table. Those are great ways to show others some of your favorite photos and lovely toys. Finally, try to find something that adds energy and life to your bedroom. 40
A. You also need to consider color.
B. You could also put in a bookshelf to create space.
C. Besides, you might have some wall space to use up.
D. This means you will need to plan out your bedroom.
E. Don’t choose a heavy, large bed for a small bedroom.
F. Of course, plants help a lot and they can also keep the air clean.
G. If you love to read in bed, a small bedside table probably won’t work.

第二节书面表达（满分25分）
One possible version:
The winter holiday is just around the corner. Our class had a heated discussion about what to do during the holiday. Some are in favor of staying at home. They think it is both convenient and comfortable. What’s more, they can save money for other purposes. But they will lose the chance of getting to know the outside world.
However, others prefer to go traveling since it can increase their knowledge and broaden their horizon. But they will spend more money and meet some difficulties while traveling. In my opinion, it would be much better to stay at home, for I can do what I like, such as reading books, watching TV and helping my parents with the housework.。
