W: The panda likes eating bamboo. It usually spends 12 to 14 hours every day eating bamboo. It eats over 80 pounds of bamboo a day. In the wild, pandas seldom live together. They usually live alone and do not meet other pandas. They can live for about twenty years. We can see that pandas are black and white in color. Some scientists believe this helps them stand out in the
forest. Then they can find each other easily.
M: Well, what is the panda's enemy?
W: The worst enemy of the panda is man. We replace the bamboo forests with cities and farmland. It's more and more difficult for the pandas to find food and a place to be their home.

M: Good afternoon, everyone. In today's pre-class speech. I'd like to tell you about a great girl named Mackezie.
Seven years ago, Mackenzie hurt her knee. She was just ten years old. A week later, ter pain was still here. Then she found out about a disease called RSD. There’s no cure for the pain. Her knee feels terrible all the time. Sometimes she felt so terrible that she stayed in bed for months. It was very difficult for her to walk. Her doctors tried everything: medicine, exercise, and other treatments. Nothing worked, except books.
Mackenzie read lots of books. The books helped her stop thinking about the pain. And she decided to help other children forget their pain, too. She found out about a treatment center for children nearby. The center had a new library, but no books. She asked all her friends and her parents’ friends to give books. Then she put ads in newspapers and made a website.
Mackenzie's goal was to give 300 books to the library. But she soon had 3, 000 books, and more were on the way! Today the number is more than 40, 000. She started an organization — Sheltering Books. It now helps children in many states in the U.S.
Mackenzie is turning pain to gain. She's great, isn't she?

第二部分:阅读理解(共两节，满分35分)
第一节(共10小题；每小题2.5分，满分25分)
阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

A
Three Feet From Gold
Darby’s uncle was caught by the “gold fever” in the gold –rush days, and went west to dig and grow rich. After months of labor, he was rewarded by the discovery of the shining ore(矿石).He needed machinery to bring the ore to the surface. So, with the “strike”, he returned home. And with the help of Darby, he borrowed a lot of money. After buying the machinery and having it shipped, Uncle and Darby went back to work the mine.
The first car of ore was mined. And the returns proved they had one of the richest mines in Colorado! Down went the drills! Up went the hopes of Uncle and Darby!
Then something happened! The vein(矿脉) of gold ore disappeared! They drilled on, but all in vain. Finally, they decided to quit and sold the machinery to a junk man for a few hundred dollars. The junk man called in a mining engineer to look at the mine and do a little calculating. The engineer’s calculations showed that the vein would be found just three feet from where the Darbys had stopped drilling! The junk man took millions of dollars in the vein, because he knew enough to seek experts’ advice before giving up.
Most of the money which went into the machinery was borrowed through the efforts of Darby, who was then a very young man. The money came from his relatives because of their faith in him. He paid back every dollar of it, although he was years in doing so.
Long afterwards, Mr. Darby made another discovery that desire can be changed into gold. This discovery came after he went into the business of selling life insurance. Remembering that he lost a huge fortune, for he stopped three feet from gold, Darby profited by the experience in his chosen work, saying to himself, “I stopped three feet from gold, but I never stop because men say ‘no’ when I ask them to buy insurance.”
Darby sold more than million dollars in life insurance annually. He owes his “sti ck-ability” to the lesson he learned from his “quit-ability” in the gold mining business.
21. Darby’s uncle went back home to _________.
A. receive his reward
B. seek financial support
C. look for more helpers
D. consult an engineer
22. From the passage, we can know Darby _________.
A. was unable to pay off the debts
B. mined his gold from the failure
C. learned a lesson from selling insurance
D. devoted himself to making new discoveries
23. The author intends to tell us that _______.
A. hopes and difficulties exist side by side
B. correct decisions stem from correct judgment
C. we should catch it when opportunity comes
D. we won’t reach our goal unless we insist
【答案】21. B 22. B 23. D
【解析】
【分析】
本文是一篇记叙文。

Darby的叔叔发现了金矿，在Darby和亲戚的帮助下买到了钻探设备，但金矿脉消失，他们只好把设备卖给了一个旧货商。

旧货商找到一个采矿工程师去看矿井，发现Darby只差3英尺就钻探到了金矿。

后来Darby从事销售人寿保险业务，由于有前车之鉴，他坚持不放弃，终于成功了。

作者想告诉我们，除非我们坚持下去，否则我们无法实现我们的目标。

B
Happy, angry, amazed—these are some of the emotions we like to express these days when we’re sending a message on our smart phones! That’s why many of us now add little pictures to our texts to brighten up someone’s mobile screen but we’re also using them as a quick w ay of telling someone how we’re feeling. Yes, emojis (表情符号) have become a popular tool for communication.
The emoji was first invented in Japan in the late 1990s and the word “emoji” comes from the Japanese words for “picture” and “character”. The number of different images has greatly increased since then and now we have a picture for nearly every mood or situation.
Why are emojis widely used today? Professor Vyv Evans says, “Increasingly, what we’re finding is that digital communication is replacing face-to-face talk in some ways. One of the reasons why emojis are so interesting is that they really do enable us to express our emotional selves much more effectively.”
Another advantage of emojis is that they are an international language—they don’t use words but tell a message with pictures so they can
be easily understood whatever your native language is.
But as linguist (语言学家) Neil Cohn says, “To many, emojis are an exciting evolution (进化) of the way we communicate; but to others, they are linguistic Armage ddon.” It does show by using emojis, there is a lot more to our communication than words alone, but does this also mean that the traditional writing will die out one day?
24. What is implied(暗示) in Paragraph 2?
A. The emoji was first invented in Japan.
B. The word “emoji” only means “picture” and “character”.
C. More and more pictures are used to express our mood today.
D. The number of emoji images will increase rapidly in the future.
25. Why do people use emojis so widely?
A. Emojis can never be misunderstood.
B. Emojis are similar to some native languages.
C. Emojis make us communicate more effectively.
D. Emojis can replace face-to-face communication.
26. What is the structure of the passage?
A. B. C. D.
【答案】24. C 25. C 26. A
【解析】
这是一篇说明文。

本文说的是手机通讯中的表情符号。

文章介绍了它的起源、用途、优点，及语言学家对它的态度．。

【24题详解】
推理判断题。

根据第二段中The number of different images has greatly increased since then and now we have a picture for nearly every mood or situation．（不同的图像的数量大大增加，现在我们几乎每一个情绪或情况都有一个图片。

）可知越来越多的图片用来表达我们今天的心情，故选C。

【25题详解】
细节理解题。

根据第三段Why are emojis widely used today？ Professor Vyv Evans says， "Increasingly， what we're finding is that digital communication is replacing face-to-face talk in some ways． One of the reasons why emojis are so interesting is that they really do enable us to express our emotional selves much more effectively．"为什么今天表情符号被广泛使用？Vyv Evans教授说："越来越多的人发现，数字交流在某种程度上取代了面对面的交流。

可知表情符号之所以如此有趣，其中一个原因是它们确实使我们能够更有效地表达自己的情感．"越来越多的人使用表情符号，故选C。

【26题详解】
推理判断题。

本文先提出手机通讯中的表情符号，然后文章介绍了它的起源、用途、优点，及语言学家对它的态度。

重点介绍了表情符合，所以是总分式结构，故选A。

C
Passenger pigeons (旅鸽)once flew over much of the United States in unbelievable numbers. Written accounts from the 18th and 19th centuries described flocks (群)so large that they darkened the sky for hours.
It was calculated that when its population reached its highest point, there were more than 3 billion passenger pigeons — a number equal to 24 to 40 percent of the total bird population in the United States, making it perhaps the most abundant bird in the world. Even as late as 1870 when their numbers had already become smaller, a flock believed to be 1 mile wide and 320 miles (about 515 kilometers) long was seen near Cincinnati.
Sadly the abundance of passenger pigeons may have been their undoing. Where the birds were most abundant, people believed there was an ever-lasting supply and killed them by the thousands. Commercial hunters attracted them to small clearings with grain, waited until pigeons had settled to feed, then threw large nets over them, taking hundreds at a time. The birds were shipped to large cities and sold in restaurants.
By the closing decades of the 19th century, the hardwood forests where passenger pigeons nested had been damaged by American’s need for wood, which scattered (驱散) the flocks and forced the birds to go farther north, where cold temperatures and storms contributed to their decline. Soon the great flocks were gone, never to be seen again.
In 1897, the state of Michigan passed a law prohibiting the killing of passenger pigeons but by then, no sizable flocks had been seen in the state for 10 years. The last confirmed wild pigeon in the United States was shot by a boy in Pike County, Ohio, in 1900. For a time, a few birds survived under human care. The last of them, known affectionately as Martha, died at the Cincinnati Zoological Garden on September 1, 1914.
27. In the 18th and early 19th centuries, passenger pigeons___.
A. were the biggest bird in the world
B. lived mainly in the south of America
C. did great harm to the natural environment
D. were the largest bird population in the US
28. The underlined word “undoing” probably refers to the pigeons’ ___.
A. escape
B. ruin
C. release
D. development
29. What was the main reason for people to kill passenger pigeons?
A. To seek pleasure.
B. To save other birds.
C. To make money.
D. To protect crops.
30. What can we infer about the law passed in Michigan?
A. It was ignored by the public.
B. It was declared too late.
C. It was unfair.
D. It was strict.
【答案】27. D 28. B 29. C 30. B
【解析】
本文是一篇记叙文。

叙述了旅鸽逐渐消失的过程。

在美国，18世纪和19世纪旅鸽的数量很大，人们认为旅鸽数量多，会永恒的供应，于是成千的人杀害了旅鸽。

19世纪末，美国人是为了木材而驱赶旅鸽。

在1897年，到密歇根州通过禁止屠杀旅鸽的法律时，在美国已经10年没有见过大的旅鸽群。

最后一批旅鸽，于1914年，在辛辛那提动物园死去。

【27题详解】
细节理解题。

根据第一段Passenger pigeons once flew over much of the United States in unbelievable numbers. Written accounts from the 18th and 19th centuries described flocks so large that they darkened the sky for hours.（信鸽曾经以令人难以置信的数量飞过美国大部分地区。

从18世纪和19世纪的书面记录描述的鸟群是如此之大，以至于把天空笼罩了好几个小时。

）可知在美国，18世纪和19世纪旅鸽的数量很大。

故选D。

【28题详解】
词义猜测题。

根据下文Where the birds were abundant，people believed there was an ever-lasting supply and killed them by the thousands．（在鸟类丰富的地方，人们相信有一种永恒的供应，并杀死了成千上万的鸟类。

）可知人们认为旅鸽数量多会永恒的供应，于是成千的人杀害了旅鸽。

因此判断此处undoing的意思是死亡，毁灭。

故选B。

【29题详解】
细节理解题。

根据第四段Commercial hunters attracted them to small clearings
with grain，waited until pigeons had settled to feed，then threw large nets over them，taking hundreds at a time．The birds were shipped to large cities and sold in restaurants．可知商业猎人捕捉了大量的旅鸽，把他们卖到大城市的餐馆里，因此推测人们杀死旅鸽的主要原因是为了赚钱。

故选C。

【30题详解】
推理判断题。

根据最后一段In 1897，the state of Michigan passed a law prohibiting the killing of passenger pigeons，but by then，no sizable flocks had been seen in the state for 10 years．可知到密歇根州通过禁止屠杀旅鸽的法律时，在美国已经10年没有见过大的旅鸽群，这可推断旅鸽数量已经很少了，因此这项法律通过得太晚了。

故选B。
