You can't be a positive person all of the time．How do you do it?" Jerry replied, "Each morning I wake up and say to myself, "Jerry, you have two choices today．You can choose to be in a good mood or you can choose to be in a bad mood．' I choose to be in a good mood．Each time something bad happens, I can choose to be a victim or I can choose to learn from it．I choose to learn from it．Every time someone comes to me complaining．I can choose to accept their complaining or I can point out the positive side of life．I choose the positive side of life．The bottom line It's your choice how you live life．" I reflected on what Jerry said．Later．I left the restaurant industry to start my own business．We lost touch, but I often thought about him when I made a choice about life．Several years later．I heard that Jerry did something you are never supposed to do in a restaurant business he left the back door open one morning and was held up at gun point by three armed robbers．While trying to open the safe, he forgot thepassword, nervous．The robbers panicked and shot him．Luckily, Jerry was found relatively quickly and rushed to the local hospital．After 18 hours of surgery and weeks of intensive care．Jerry was released from the hospital with fragments（碎片）of the bullets still in his body．I saw Jerry about six months after the accident．When I asked him how he was．he replied．"The first thing that went through my mind was that I should have locked the back door," Jerry replied．"Then, as I lay on the floor．I remembered that I had two choices I could choose to live．or I could choose to die．I chose to live．" " Weren ' t you scared? Did you lose consciousness?" I asked．Jerry continued, "The doctors and nurses were great．They kept telling me I was going to be fine．But when they wheeled me into the emergency room and I saw the expressions on the faces of the doctors and nurses, I got really scared．I knew I needed to take action．""What did you do?" I asked．"Well, there was a big．strong nurse shouting questions at me．" said Jerry．"She asked if I was allergic （过敏的）to anything．"Yes．' I replied．The doctors and nurses stopped working as they waited for my reply．I took a deep breath and yelled, "Bullets!' Over their laughter, I told them．"I am choosing to live．Operate on me as if I am alive, not dead．'"Jerry lived thanks to the skill of his doctors, but also because of his amazing attitude．I learned from him that every day we have the choice to live fully．56．The author left Jerry's restaurant because he_____．A．wanted to start business on his ownB．was afraid of another robbery laterC．was not equal

is conveyed in this article?A．Where there is life．there is hope．B．Everything comes to him who waits．C．Humor is the best medicine that creates miracle．D．Attitude determines everything．BAn old problem is getting new attention in the United State s—bullying．Recent cases included the tragic case of a fifteen-year-old girl whose family moved from Ireland．She hanged herself in Massachusetts in January following months of bullying．Her parents criticized her school for failing to protect her．Officials have brought criminal charges against severalteenagers．Judy Kaczynski is president of an anti-bullying group called Bully Police USA．Her daughter Tina was the victim of severe bullying starting in middle school in the state of Minnesota．She said, "Our daughter was a very outgoing child．She was a bubbly personality, very involved in all kinds of things, had lots of friends．And over a period of time her grades fell completely．She started having health issues．She couldn't sleep．She wasn't eating．She had terrible stomach pains．She started clenching （紧握，紧咬）her jaw and grinding her teeth at night．She didn't want to go to school．"Bullying is defined as negative behavior repeated over time against the same person．It can involve physical violence．Or it can be verba l—for example, insults or threats．Spreading lies about someone or excluding a person from a group is known as social or relational bullying．And now there is cyberbullying, which uses the Internet, e-mail or text messages．It has easy appeal for the bully because it does not involve face-to-face contact and it can be done at any time．The first serious research studies into bullying were done in Norway in the late 1970s．The latest government study in the United States was released last year．It found that about one-third of students aged twelve to eighteen were bullied at school．Susan Sweater is a psychologist at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln and co-director of the Bullying Research Network．She says schools should treat bullying as a mental health problem to get bullies and victims the help they need．She says bullying is connected to depression, anxiety and anti-social behavior, and bullies are often victims themselves．61．From the case of Tina, we can know that _____．A．bullying is rare B．victims suffered a lotC．schools are to blame D．personalities are related62．Which of the following is NOT bullying?A．To beat someone repeatedly．B．To call someone names．C．To isolate someone from friends．D．To refuse to help someone in need．63．Why is cyberbullying appealing to the bully?A．Because it can involve more people．B．Because it can create worse effects．C．Because it is more convenient．D．Because it can avoid cheating．64．According to Susan Sweater．_____．A．bullies are anti-socialB．bullies should give victims helpC．students are not equally treatedD．bullies themselves also need help65．Which of the following can be the best title of the text?A．Bullyin g—An Irish Girl Committed SuicideB．15-year-old Irish Girl Committed SuicideC．Cyberbullyin g—Taking Off in SchoolsD．How to Find Bullying among TeensC"The days when the management in Western companies presented gold watches to long-serving employees to thank them for loyal service is now just a memory．" says the Educational and Training Support Agency．This new development in the shape and movement of the workforce throughout Western businesses is partly a result of the way that layers of middle management are being removed, leaving more workers responsible for their own development．"Having workers take responsibility for their own development might be dramatic, but it is now the rule," says the Educational and Training Support Agency．"Today, not only are workers more mobile, they have to run to keep up with changes．" says the Government-founded agency．"It is no longer enough for a worker to gain a set of skills．Workers need the ability to react and get used to changes．" This new system is also being pushed along by the way that industry is looking to its workers to renew their own skills．In the United States, some companies have contracts （合同）which repair their employees to show regularly how they have their skills up to date．Contrary to this traditions of the past, employers in the West are now looking for autonomous learners as recruits, people who can develop their own continuing education beyond the school and university system．At the same time．businesses are developing the capacity for workers to take up autonomous learning on site in workplace, so that the skills and abilities of all workers in a business continue to improve and increase．"This．of course," says business theory．"will also improve the productivity （生产率）of the workers and therefore the profits of the company．"66．The management in western companies no longer presents gold watches to their employees because _____．A．they are not loyal to companiesB．other rewards replace gold watchesC．the way prove to be a failureD．serving a company for life is rare now67．The western workforce frequently changes their jobs partly because _____．A．hopping from job to job has become a new trendB．employees are expecting to have more experiences in their lifeC．workers have to take more responsibility for themselvesD．it is easy to complete themselves by doing so68．The passage seems to suggest that the present situation in society requires that workers shouldA．show more loyalty to their companiesB．try to develop their skills to fit in with changesC．go to college to have their skills up to dateD．be quick in changing their careers if there is the possibility69．The phrase "autonomous learner" in the last paragraph means _____．A．people who have received higher educationB．people who study hard themselvesC．people who learn things very quicklyD．people who continue their study beyond regular education70．Companies require their employee's development mainly because _____．A．it will finally help to bring more profits to the companyB．it can attract more workers who pay special attention to self-developmentC．it is good for the employees to develop their skillsD．it will make workers more responsible and loyal to the companyPart Iv Writing （45 marks）Section A （10 marks）Directions Read．the following passage．Fill．in the numbered, blanks by using the information from the passage．Write NO MORE THAN THREE WORDS for each answer．Learning to improve your focus throughout the day can be a little difficult, only because we are talking about 18 to 24 hours, depending on the number of hours you sleep．However, if we break down your day into manageable time frames, it would make it much easier to learn to improve your focus．Focus, or concentration, is a skill that can be taught, so there are some exercises you can do to improve your focus．Start with easy exercises like staring at a picture on the wall for a few minutes without moving or talking to anyone．Once you learn how to block out your surroundings, your focus will improve．Other mind exercises you can do are internalizing．This is when you picture yourself in a desired situation, and then you work around your picture．Actors do this a lot to block out laughter, noise, or other distractions．An example of this would be to imagine you in a potentially stressful situation, like a singer in a concert．Try to play out the scene in your mind what you would do if different scenarios were to happen．This can actually be a lot of fun．and you learn how to improve your focus by concentrating on one thing only．If this sounds a little strange to you, you could try another strategy．Why not make lists? Make a list for the things you need to accomplish for the morning, another for the afternoon．and finally, another list for the evening．Study your lists carefully and see where you can move things around．For instance, if you have a dinner to arrange that evening, don't bunch up everything in the afternoon, right before the guests arrive．Divide your chores and errands between morning and afternoon, and give yourself an hour or two to relax before the guests arrive．Planning helps you focus．It will also not stress you out．Another way to improve your focus is to take breaks．If children have rest and lunch as their breaks, adults should also allow themselves the privilege of stopping for a drink or a 30 minute sitcom on TV．Of course, if you are working in an office, you are allowed coffee breaks．Use this time wisely．Don't spend it with your co-workers beside the coffee machine talking about problems in the office．Doing this would actually stress you and get you to lose focus on the things that need to be done．Your breaks should be as quiet as possible．Read a book．take a walk．or visit a daycare．Go and do anything that will give your brain a rest．The reason why we lose focus so easily is because we have too much on our minds．Of course, it could also be because you are bored with nothing to do all day．A good balance between a too relaxed brain and an overly active brain is a desirable situation to be in．Find your capacity to work, and try not to veer away too far from it on a daily basis．Improving your focusalso means knowing what you can do and being confident about doing it well．Focus is important but difficult to improve1．71 to improve your focusI ．Staring at picture．◆Staring at a wall picture 72 to learn to block out surroundingsⅡ．73 ．◆Concentrating on imagining a potentially stressful work place to block out 74Ⅲ．75 ．◆Dividing a day into 76 for chores and errands to be done．as well as arranging time for relaxationIV．Taking breaks．◆Wisely using time to have a drink, watch TV quietly instead of 77 ; just resting your brain2．78 for easily losing focus◆Having too much on minds◆79 all dayConclusion Keeping 80 between extremely relaxed brain and too active brain．Section B （10 marks）Directions Read．the following passage．Answer the questions according to the information given in the passage and the required words limit．Write your answers on your answer sheet．When I was 10 years old, my friend Sydney was diagnosed with a brain tumor．Sydney fought against it, but the tumor did not respond to treatment, and could not be surgically removed．The mass wrapped around her brain stem, the area of the brain that controls the vital functions of life such as breathing and blood pressure．Sydney died at the age of 11．After her death, I felt immense sadness and frustration about pediatric cancer．I decided to turn these negative emotions into positive actions．When I was 11 years old．I founded the Pink Polka Dots Guild（PPD）with two friends．The guild is named after Sydney s favorite color and pattern, which represents both the memory of my friend and the guild's positive approach．My goal has been to raise enough money to find a cure for brain cancer, which is the second most common cancer in children．Over the years, PPD has held fundraisers from lemonade stands to art expositions to golf tournaments．I have played a leading role in planning and organizing each PPD event．The very first Pink Polka Dots event, a garage sale．raised $ 9．000, and our most recent fundraiser, the fifth annual golf tournament, brought in over $ 73．000．The guild progressed faster than I ever anticipated．In five years, we have become 40 members strong, and raised almost half of a million dollars．I've been shocked by the public recognition that the guild has earned．PPD received an award from a U．S．Senator, spoke at a TED Conference, was featured in Teen Vogue, and appeared on The Note Berkus Show．Each of these honors has raised awareness and money for our cause．The initiative that I have taken has truly impacted the world of cancer research．PPD has provided start-up funding for scientific discoveries, such as "Tumor Paint", which illuminates cancerous cells so that surgeons can remove them with unprecedented accuracy．The discovery appeared in Time Magazine．, and will be reviewed by the Food & Drug Administration starting in early 2012．1 am extremely proud to have helped fund the research of this life-saving technology．Pink Polka Dots has inspired me to be an activist．My experience has taught me that with passion and dedication, it is possible to make a difference to the world．The determination that Pink Polka Dots sparked in me has carried over to all aspects of my life, making me a driven academic, a competitive debater and a dedicated volunteer．81．Why did the author feel sad and frustrated? （No more than 8 words）82．What was the author s purpose of founding PPD? （No more than 15 words）83．What achievement has PPD made in helping cancer research? （No more than 13 words）84．What did the author learn trom his own experience of founding PPD? （No more than 15 words）Section C （25 marks）Directions Write, an English composition according to the instructions given below．现今，中学生由于学业繁重几乎都没有在家承担任何家务责任。

Y ou can't be a positive person all of the time．How do you do it?" Jerry replied, "Each morning I wake up and say to myself, "Jerry, you have two choices today．Y ou can choose to be in a good mood or you can choose to be in a bad mood．' I choose to be in a good mood．Each time something bad happens, I can choose to be a victim or I can choose to learn from it．I choose to learn from it．Every time someone comes to me complaining．I can choose to accept their complaining or I can point out the positive side of life．I choose the positive side of life．The bottom line It's your choice how you live life．" I reflected on what Jerry said．Later．I left the restaurant industry to start my own business．We lost touch, but I often thought about him when I made a choice about life．Several years later．I heard that Jerry did something you are never supposed to do in a restaurant business he left the back door open one morning and was held up at gun point by three armed robbers．While trying to open the safe, he forgot the password, nervous．The robbers panicked and shot him．Luckily, Jerry was found relatively quickly and rushed to the local hospital．After 18 hours of surgery and weeks of intensive care．Jerry was released from the hospital with fragments（碎片）of the bullets still in his body．I saw Jerry about six months after the accident．When I asked him how he was．he replied．"The first thing that went through my mind was that I should have locked the back door," Jerry replied．"Then, as I lay on the floor．I remembered that I had two choices I could choose to live．or I could choose to die．I chose to live．" " Weren ' t you scared? Did you lose consciousness?" I asked．Jerry continued, "The doctors and nurses were great．They kept telling me I was going to be fine．But when they wheeled me into the emergency room and I saw the expressions on the faces of the doctors and nurses, I got really scared．I knew I needed to take action．""What did you do?" I asked．"Well, there was a big．strong nurse shouting questions at me．" said Jerry．"She asked if I was allergic （过敏的）to anything．"Yes．' I replied．The doctors and nurses stopped working as they waited for my reply．I took a deep breath and yelled, "Bullets!' Over their laughter, I told them．"I am choosing to live．Operate on me as if I am alive, not dead．'"Jerry lived thanks to the skill of his doctors, but also because of his amazing attitude．I learned from him that every day we have the choice to live fully．56．The author left Jerry's restaurant because he_____．A．wanted to start business on his ownB．was afraid of another robbery laterC．was not equal to the job any longerD．didn't get along well with others57．Why was Jerry shot?A．Because he left the back door open．B．Because he opened the safe too slowly．C．Because he pretended to forget the

doctors and nurses came with expressions of regret at his being shotD．He might not be saved by doctors and nurses．59．From the passage we can learn that Jerry _____．A．was no longer positive to his life after the operationB．was optimistic even when things were at their worstC．influenced all his colleagues in many waysD．was badly injured and stayed in hospital for six months60．Which of the following is conveyed in this article?A．Where there is life．there is hope．B．Everything comes to him who waits．C．Humor is the best medicine that creates miracle．D．Attitude determines everything．BAn old problem is getting new attention in the United States—bullying．Recent cases included the tragic case of a fifteen-year-old girl whose family moved from Ireland．She hanged herself in Massachusetts in January following months of bullying．Her parents criticized her school for failing to protect her．Officials have brought criminal charges against several teenagers．Judy Kaczynski is president of an anti-bullying group called Bully Police USA．Her daughter Tina was the victim of severe bullying starting in middle school in the state of Minnesota．She said, "Our daughter was a very outgoing child．She was a bubbly personality, very involved in all kinds of things, had lots of friends．And over a period of time her grades fell completely．She started having health issues．She couldn't sleep．She wasn't eating．She had terrible stomach pains．She started clenching（紧握，紧咬）her jaw and grinding her teeth at night．She didn't want to go to school．"Bullying is defined as negative behavior repeated over time against the same person．It can involve physical violence．Or it can be verbal—for example, insults or threats．Spreading lies about someone or excluding a person from a group is known as social or relational bullying．And now there is cyberbullying, which uses the Internet, e-mail or text messages．It has easy appeal for the bully because it does not involve face-to-face contact and it can be done at any time．The first serious research studies into bullying were done in Norway in the late 1970s．The latest government study in the United States was released last year．It found that about one-third of students aged twelve to eighteen were bullied at school．Susan Sweater is a psychologist at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln and co-director of the Bullying Research Network．She says schools should treat bullying as a mental health problem to get bullies and victims the help they need．She says bullying is connected to depression, anxiety and anti-social behavior, and bullies are often victims themselves．61．From the case of Tina, we can know that _____．A．bullying is rare B．victims suffered a lotC．schools are to blame D．personalities are related62．Which of the following is NOT bullying?A．To beat someone repeatedly．B．To call someone names．C．To isolate someone from friends．D．To refuse to help someone in need．63．Why is cyberbullying appealing to the bully?A．Because it can involve more people．B．Because it can create worse effects．C．Because it is more convenient．D．Because it can avoid cheating．64．According to Susan Sweater．_____．A．bullies are anti-socialB．bullies should give victims helpC．students are not equally treatedD．bullies themselves also need help65．Which of the following can be the best title of the text?A．Bullying—An Irish Girl Committed SuicideB．15-year-old Irish Girl Committed SuicideC．Cyberbullying—Taking Off in SchoolsD．How to Find Bullying among TeensC"The days when the management in Western companies presented gold watches to long-serving employees to thank them for loyal service is now just a memory．" says the Educational and Training Support Agency．This new development in the shape and movement of the workforce throughout Western businesses is partly a result of the way that layers of middle management are being removed, leaving more workers responsible for their own development．"Having workers take responsibility for their own development might be dramatic, but it is now the rule," says the Educational and Training Support Agency．"Today, not only are workers more mobile, they have to run to keep up with changes．" says the Government-founded agency．"It is no longer enough for a worker to gain a set of skills．Workers need the ability to react and get used to changes．" This new system is also being pushed along by the way that industry is looking to its workers to renew their own skills．In the United States, some companies have contracts （合同）which repair their employees to show regularly how they have their skills up to date．Contrary to this traditions of the past, employers in the West are now looking for autonomous learners as recruits, people who can develop their own continuing education beyond the school and university system．At the same time．businesses are developing the capacity for workers to take up autonomous learning on site in workplace, so that the skills and abilities of all workers in a business continue to improve and increase．"This．of course," says business theory．"will also improve the productivity （生产率）of the workers and therefore the profits of the company．"66．The management in western companies no longer presents gold watches to their employees because _____．A．they are not loyal to companiesB．other rewards replace gold watchesC．the way prove to be a failureD．serving a company for life is rare now67．The western workforce frequently changes their jobs partly because _____．A．hopping from job to job has become a new trendB．employees are expecting to have more experiences in their lifeC．workers have to take more responsibility for themselvesD．it is easy to complete themselves by doing so68．The passage seems to suggest that the present situation in society requires that workers should A．show more loyalty to their companiesB．try to develop their skills to fit in with changesC．go to college to have their skills up to dateD．be quick in changing their careers if there is the possibility69．The phrase "autonomous learner" in the last paragraph means _____．A．people who have received higher educationB．people who study hard themselvesC．people who learn things very quicklyD．people who continue their study beyond regular education70．Companies require their employee's development mainly because _____．A．it will finally help to bring more profits to the companyB．it can attract more workers who pay special attention to self-developmentC．it is good for the employees to develop their skillsD．it will make workers more responsible and loyal to the companyPart Iv Writing （45 marks）Section A（10 marks）Directions Read．the following passage．Fill．in the numbered, blanks by using the information from the passage．Write NO MORE THAN THREE WORDS for each answer．Learning to improve your focus throughout the day can be a little difficult, only because we are talking about 18 to 24 hours, depending on the number of hours you sleep．However, if we break down your day into manageable time frames, it would make it much easier to learn to improve your focus．Focus, or concentration, is a skill that can be taught, so there are some exercises you can do to improve your focus．Start with easy exercises like staring at a picture on the wall for a few minutes without moving or talking to anyone．Once you learn how to block out your surroundings, your focus will improve．Other mind exercises you can do are internalizing．This is when you picture yourself in a desired situation, and then you work around your picture．Actors do this a lot to block out laughter,noise, or other distractions．An example of this would be to imagine you in a potentially stressful situation, like a singer in a concert．Try to play out the scene in your mind what you would do if different scenarios were to happen．This can actually be a lot of fun．and you learn how to improve your focus by concentrating on one thing only．If this sounds a little strange to you, you could try another strategy．Why not make lists? Make a list for the things you need to accomplish for the morning, another for the afternoon．and finally, another list for the evening．Study your lists carefully and see where you can move things around．For instance, if you have a dinner to arrange that evening, don't bunch up everything in the afternoon, right before the guests arrive．Divide your chores and errands between morning and afternoon, and give yourself an hour or two to relax before the guests arrive．Planning helps you focus．It will also not stress you out．Another way to improve your focus is to take breaks．If children have rest and lunch as their breaks, adults should also allow themselves the privilege of stopping for a drink or a 30 minute sitcom on TV．Of course, if you are working in an office, you are allowed coffee breaks．Use this time wisely．Don't spend it with your co-workers beside the coffee machine talking about problems in the office．Doing this would actually stress you and get you to lose focus on the things that need to be done．Y our breaks should be as quiet as possible．Read a book．take a walk．or visit a daycare．Go and do anything that will give your brain a rest．The reason why we lose focus so easily is because we have too much on our minds．Of course, it could also be because you are bored with nothing to do all day．A good balance between a too relaxed brain and an overly active brain is a desirable situation to be in．Find your capacity to work, and try not to veer away too far from it on a daily basis．Improving your focus also means knowing what you can do and being confident about doing it well．Focus is important but difficult to improve1．71 to improve your focusI ．Staring at picture．◆Staring at a wall picture 72 to learn to block out surroundingsⅡ．73 ．◆ Concentrating on imagining a potentially stressful work place to block out 74Ⅲ．75 ．◆ Dividing a day into 76 for chores and errands to be done．as well as arranging time for relaxationIV．Taking breaks．◆ Wisely using time to have a drink, watch TV quietly instead of 77 ; just resting your brain2．78 for easily losing focus◆ Having too much on minds◆79 all dayConclusion Keeping 80 between extremely relaxed brain and too active brain．Section B （10 marks）Directions Read．the following passage．Answer the questions according to the information given in the passage and the required words limit．Write your answers on your answer sheet．When I was 10 years old, my friend Sydney was diagnosed with a brain tumor．Sydney fought against it, but the tumor did not respond to treatment, and could not be surgically removed．Themass wrapped around her brain stem, the area of the brain that controls the vital functions of life such as breathing and blood pressure．Sydney died at the age of 11．After her death, I felt immense sadness and frustration about pediatric cancer．I decided to turn these negative emotions into positive actions．When I was 11 years old．I founded the Pink Polka Dots Guild（PPD）with two friends．The guild is named after Sydney s favorite color and pattern, which represents both the memory of my friend and the guild's positive approach．My goal has been to raise enough money to find a cure for brain cancer, which is the second most common cancer in children．Over the years, PPD has held fundraisers from lemonade stands to art expositions to golf tournaments．I have played a leading role in planning and organizing each PPD event．The very first Pink Polka Dots event, a garage sale．raised $ 9．000, and our most recent fundraiser, the fifth annual golf tournament, brought in over $ 73．000．The guild progressed faster than I ever anticipated．In five years, we have become 40 members strong, and raised almost half of a million dollars．I've been shocked by the public recognition that the guild has earned．PPD received an award from a U．S．Senator, spoke at a TED Conference, was featured in Teen V ogue, and appeared on The Note Berkus Show．Each of these honors has raised awareness and money for our cause．The initiative that I have taken has truly impacted the world of cancer research．PPD has provided start-up funding for scientific discoveries, such as "Tumor Paint", which illuminates cancerous cells so that surgeons can remove them with unprecedented accuracy．The discovery appeared in Time Magazine．, and will be reviewed by the Food & Drug Administration starting in early 2012．1 am extremely proud to have helped fund the research of this life-saving technology．Pink Polka Dots has inspired me to be an activist．My experience has taught me that with passion and dedication, it is possible to make a difference to the world．The determination that Pink Polka Dots sparked in me has carried over to all aspects of my life, making me a driven academic, a competitive debater and a dedicated volunteer．81．Why did the author feel sad and frustrated? （No more than 8 words）82．What was the author s purpose of founding PPD? （No more than 15 words）83．What achievement has PPD made in helping cancer research? （No more than 13 words）84．What did the author learn from his own experience of founding PPD? （No more than 15 words）Section C （25 marks）Directions Write, an English composition according to the instructions given below．现今，中学生由于学业繁重几乎都没有在家承担任何家务责任。

Sometimes Chinese English teachers are puzzled by such questions, ¨Could you please give me some advice 48 how to improve my reading comprehension?"Actually, many of the teachers can't give their students 49 effective way to deal with reading．Anyway, they often simply say, “Read and you will get more experience in reading comprehension．50 and practice more, " Frankly, these teachers' good suggestions are only helpful to arouse c镁次起）students' interest in reading _ 51 not helpful to deal with the questions in the examinations of reading comprehension．Personally, _ 52 think the skill for reading comprehension should be based on the knowledge of English writing．53 or principles, the science of reading the English passages are written under some rules and understanding may have a close relationship with writing．Reading comprehension can't be independent 54 the knowledge of writing．So to do better in reading comprehension 55 ever, knowledge of writing, study how questions are designed and the questions and the reading materials．【题文】AOver the last 30 years, Bangkok, once a small fishing village, has transformed into a rich, concrete, high-rise city that it is today．The spreading metropolis and its population of 12 million now produces 35 per cent of Thailand's economic wealth．As a magnet for foreign companies, Bangkok attracts many overseas managers and business people from different fields, including tourism! automobiles and electronics．The city's population of foreigners is in the high hundreds of thousands, with tens of thousands of Japanese, Chinese and western employees working alongside hundreds of thousands of Burmese who mostly do unskilled jobs shunned by Thais．For those used to the good life, the variety and quality of the city's food is a key attraction, says one US manager, before listing many of his favorite Italian, Mexican and, of course, Thai restaurants．Most offer quality meals for less than the cost of a takeaway sandwich in London．Great choice and value can be found in Bangkok's other attractions, too．For overseas business people who enjoy shopping in luxury and air-conditioned comfort! The city has hundreds of modern shopping malls．Some foreigners, however, prefer the charms of Chanukah Market, where anything can be bought at a good price by the skilled bargainer．When the time comes to talk business many overseas business people prefer to move out of the markets and onto the golf course．Thailand has thousands of courses, which can provide a welcome break from the busy and noisy city life．But most business people go to the golf course because it's the perfect place to discuss the next big deal．Because of the fast-paced life some foreign business people see Bangkok as a place to stay for the short term! rather than a lifetime．Australian computer software designer Sarah Huang is seven months pregnant but still working full-time in her Bangkok office．She says the city is” definitely a place I want to stay for the next five, ten years"．Nannies and home help are affordable, but high fees for quality secondary education have convinced Ms．Huang to return to Australia when her child reaches high school age．56．According to the first two paragraphs, we know thatA．Bangkok offers many working opportunities for peopleB．Bangkok has always been a rich Thai cityC．most foreigners coming to Bangkok are touristsD．Burmese in Bangkok mostly work for Thais57．The underlined word” shunned" in Paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to A．forgotten B．unwantedC．appreciated D．rewarded58．What is the main attraction of golf for business people according to the passage?A．It is the most convenient way for them to get regular exercise．B．It is a good place in which to discuss business matters．C．It is a great way to escape from the noise and pollution of the city．D．It gives them the opportunity to meet local people in a social setting．59．Sarah Huang says she’ll eventually leave Bangkok because .A．she is going to have a babyB．her working hours are too longC．it's not easy to find suitable home help thereD．the cost of a good education there is too high60．The main purpose of the passage is to ．A．explain the reasons for Bangkok's rapid economic growth over the past 30 years B．promote the many attractions Bangkok has to offer tourists visiting the cityC．describe the attractions of living in Bangkok for foreign business peopleD．compare the lifestyles of Burmese workers and foreign business people in Bangkok 【题文】61．What can we infer from the conversation between the woman and the recorder at the beginning of the passage?A．The woman felt ashamed to admit what her job was．B．The recorder was impatient and rude．C．Motherhood was not recognized and respected as a job by society．D．The author was upset about the situation that mothers faced．62．How did the female clerk feel at first when the author told her occupation?A．Puzzled．B．Curious．C．Upset．D．Frightened．63．How did the author feel when describing her job to the clerk?A．Angry．B．Calm．C．Unconfident．D．Annoyed．64．Why did the woman clerk show more respect for the author?A．Because the author cared little about rewards．B．Because she admired the author's research work in the lab．C．Because the author did something she had little knowledge of．D．Because she thought the author did admirable work．65．What is the author's purpose of writing the passage?A．To show that motherhood is a worthy career and deserves respect．B．To show how you describe your job affects your feelings toward it．C．To show that the author had a grander job than Emily．D．To show that being a mother is hard and boring work．【题文】CTexting pedestrians arena' t just an annoyance to their fellow walkers, but something dangerous to themselves．“1 was checking emails while walking to work this morning," said Wilbert van den Hoorn．“But it has a serious influence on the safety of people who type or read text while walking．"Anecdotes back him up．A tourist from Taiwan walked off a port near Melbourne last month while checking Face book-bringing an abrupt, and icy end to a penguin- watching visit．Another shopper in the U．S．was too addicted to his mobile phone to notice the fountain ahead! walking straight into it．And as mobile-phone use has grown-to about 77% of the world's population, the study says-so has the number of phone-related accidents．The number of U．S．emergency-room visits linked to phone use on the move doubled to as many as l,500 between 2005 and 2010, an Ohio State University study recently showed．Authorities world-wide have taken note．Signs on Hong Kong's subway system advise passengers in three languages to keep their eyes off their phones．Police and transport authorities have also warned the danger in Singapore, where the Straits Times newspaper ranked it as No．2Bad Habit"' due to the rising number of road deaths．Some U．S．states, including New York and Arkansas, are even considering bans on this act．The Australian study used 26 volunteers, a third of whom admitted having hit objects while texting．They were fitted with different equipment in different parts of their body, and asked to walk 8．5 meters three times-once without a phone, once while reading a text and once while writing a text-while eight cameras captured the action．V olunteers using the phone walked slower and with shorter steps （and slowest of all when typing）, and! more seriously, they locked their arms and elbows in-like “robots", in the researchers' words．That forced their heads to move more, throwing them off balance．“In a pedestrian environment, inability to maintain a straight path would be likely to increase potential for hits, falls and traffic accidents," said Mr．van den Hoorn．“The best thing to do is to step aside and stop, or keep off the phone．"66．Which of the following about” Texting pedestrians" is WRONG?A．People who type while walking．B．People who phone while walking．C．People who text while walking．D．People who read text message while walking．67．The writer uses the two examples in Paragraph 3 to showA．the advantages of mobile phonesB．the use of mobile phones in waterC．the use of mobile phones in a wrong wayD．the popularity of mobile phones68．What is New York and Arkansas' attitude to texting pedestrians?A．Considering forbidding their acts．B．Ranking it as” No．l Bad Habit"．C．Setting up signs to warn them．D．Equipping them with advanced machines．69．Why are texting pedestrians likely to hit or fall according to the passage?A．They walk too fast．B．They lock their arms and elbows．C．They are out of balance．D．They walk with longer steps．70．What is the best title for the passage?A．Text message or e-mail only?B．Ways to avoid fallsC．Mobile phones for entertainmentD．Safety or text message?【题文】Unlike in our country, violence against women is very obvious in some western and African countries．The basic cause of it lies in discrimination! which claims women inequality with men in all aspects of life．Violence is both origin in discrimination and serves to worsen discrimination．Violence against women is a sign of historically unequal status of women compared to men, which has resulted into domination（拄制,主宰）and discrimination against women by men and to the prevention of the full development of women．Violence against women is one of the important social means by which women are restricted into a secondary position in comparison with men．As violence against women is spread worldwide, many women are targets because of their ethnic group, class, sex or disability status．Many women think that the psychological consequences of abuse are even more dangerous than its physical effects．The experience of abuse often shakes women's self- respect and puts them at great risk of a number of mental health problems, such as:Depression is becoming broadly recognized as a main health problem in the world．Women who are abused by their partners suffer more depression and anxiety than women who have not been abused! according to studies in Australia, Nicaragua, Pakistan, and the US．Post-traumatic stress disorder （PTSD）is a strong anxiety disorder that can happen when people go through or witness a very unpleasant event in which they feel disappointed and helplessor fear death or injury．The symptoms of PTSD contain mentally reliving the upsetting event by means of flashbacks（闵回,倒叙）; avoiding anything that would remind one of the events; experiencing discomfort in sleeping and concentrating; and being easily alarmed or frightened．The severe violence is also likely to lead to suicide．Some women kill themselves or try to do so．Researches from some countries, including Sweden! and the US, have showed that domestic violence is closely connected with suicide．Abused women who have PTSD symptoms prove to be most likely to try suicide．Abused women are more likely than other women to misuse alcohol and drugs．When a person' s everyday life functioning or life alternatives continue to be influenced ! a post-traumatic stress disorder may be the problem, requiring professionaltreatment．【题文】With the right encouragement and tools, children can develop leadership qualities that are important to help them succeed in all areas of life．Leadership activities and games help build these skills by enabling children to become more self-aware and improve their self-respect．Good leaders can convey their thoughts and feelings effectively．Poetry, short stories or drawing are ideal activities to introduce children to the concept of leadership．Ask children to think about what makes a great leader and then express their ideas．Games like blind obstacle courses can build communication skills as well．Planning and organizing is a fundamental leadership quality．Children can learn this skill byhelping to plan a concert or play．Instead of assigning just one leader, divide the group into several small ones and assign leaders to each group．One group can be in charge of assigning roles and the second could be in charge of making invitations．How you distribute leadership roles will vary depending on the age of thechildren and what you have chosen to perform．Compromise is a skill of many effective leaders．Goals are obtained faster when arguments don't slow the process．Activities that teach children the art of compromise help them to negotiate with friends and family naturally．Group science projects, for example, can help enable children to learn how to compromise and negotiate．The success or failure of the project will depend on the children's ability to negotiate andwork together．The ability to work well with others is another important leadership skill．Team sports like baseball can teach children how to work as a group and that their contribution is important to the overall success of the team．This builds their confidence and encourages them to think beyond themselves and their individual needs．81．What activities can be used to introduce children to the concept of leadership? （No more than 5 words）（2 marks）82．How can children learn an important leadership quality according to Paragraph 3? (No more than 8 words) (2 marks)83．What is the principle of distributing leadership roles when planning a play? （No more than 8 words）（3 marks）84．What's the main idea of Paragraph 4? （No more than 8 words）（3 marks）【题文】请从这则寓言中提炼出一个恰当的主题，写一篇不少于120词的读后感。

An old joke that was popular at the time went something like this: A man is stuck up to his waist in a muddy Chicago street. Asked if he needs help, he replies, "No, thanks. I've got a good horse under me."The city planner decided to build an underground drainage (排水) system, but there simply wasn't enough difference between the height of the ground level and the water level. The only two options were to lower the Chicago River or raise the city.An engineer named Ellis Chesbrough convinced me the city that it had no choice but to build the pipes above ground and then cover them with dirt. This raised the level of the city's streets by as much as 12 feet.This of course created a new problem: dirt practically buried the first floors of every building in Chicago. Building owners were faced with a choice: either change the first floors of their buildings into basements, and the second stories into main floors, or hoist the entire buildings to meet the new street level. Small wood-frame buildings could be lifted fairly easily. But what about large, heavy structures like Tremont Hotel, which was asix-story brick building?That's where George Pullman came in. He had developed some house-moving skills successfully. To lift a big structure like the Tremont Hotel, Pullman would place thousands of jackscrews (螺旋千斤顶) beneath the building's foundation. One man was assigned to operate each section of roughly 10 jackscrews. At Pullman's signal each man turned his jackscrew the same amount at the same time, thereby raising the building slowly and evenly. Astonishingly, the TremontHotel stay open during the entire operation, and many of its guests didn't even notice anything was happening. Some people like to say that every problem has a solution. But in Chicago's early history, every engineering solution seemed to create a new problem. Now that Chicago's waste water was draining efficiently into the Chicago River, the city's next step was to clean the polluted river.(1)The author mentions the joke to show ______.A.horses were fairly useful in ChicagoB.Chicago's streets were extremely muddyC.Chicago was very dangerous in the springD.the Chicago people were particularly humorous(2)The city planners were convinced by Ellis Chesbrough to_______.A.get rid of the street dirtB. lower the Chicago RiverC. fight against heavy floodsD.build the pipes above ground(3)The underlined word "hoist" in Paragraph 4 means "_______".A.changeB.liftC.repairD.decorate(4)What can we conclude about the moving operation of the Tremont HotelA.It went on smoothly as intended.B. It interrupted the business of the hotel.C.It involved Pullman turning ten jackscrews.D. It separated the building from its foundation.(5)The passage is mainly about the early Chicago's ______.A.popular life styles and their influencesB.environmental disasters and their causesC.engineering problems and their solutionsD.successful businessmen and their achievements20. （2015·湖南）Have your parents ever inspected your room to see if you cleaned it properly? Imagine having your entire houses, garage, and yard inspected at any time -- with no warning. Inspections were a regular part of lighthouse (灯塔) living, and a keeper's reputation depended on results. A few times each year, an inspector arrived to look over the entire light station. The inspections were supposed to be a surprise, but keeper sometimes had advance notice.Once lighthouses had telephones, keepers would call each other to warn that the inspector was approaching. After boats began flying special flags nothing the inspector aboard, the keeper's family made it a game to see who could notice the boat first. As soon as someone spotted the boat, everyone would dolast-minute tidying and change into fancy clothes. The keeper then scurried to put on his dress uniform and cap. Children of keepers remember inspectors wearing white gloves to run their fingers over door framesand windowsills looking for dust.Despite the serious nature of inspections, they resulted in some funny moments. Betty Byrnes remembered when her mother did not havetime to wash all the dishes before an inspection. At the time, people did not have dishwashers in their homes. In an effort to clean up quickly, Mrs. Byrnes tossed all the dishes into a big bread pan, covered them with a cloth and stuck them in the oven. If the inspector opened the oven door, it would look like bread was baking. he never did.One day, Glenn Furst's mother put oil on the kitchen floor just before the inspector entered their house. Like floor wax, the oil made thefloors shiny and helped protect the wood. This time, though, she used a little too much oil. When the inspector extended his hand togreet Glenn's mother, he slipped on the freshly oiled surface. "He came across that floor waving his arms like a young bird attemptingits first flight," Glenn late wrote. After he steadied himself, he shook Glenn's mother's hand, and the inspectioncontinued as thoughnothing had happened.(1)What does Paragraph 1 tell us about the inspection at the light station?A.It was carried out once a year.B.It was often announced in advance.C.It was important for the keeper's fame.D.It was focused on the garage and yard.(2)The family began making preparations immediately after ______.A.one of the members saw the boatB.a warning call reached the lighthouseC.the keeper put on the dress uniform and capD.the inspector flew special flags in the distance(3)Mrs. Byrnes put the dishes in the oven because this would ______.A. result in some funB.speed up washing themC.make her home look tidyD.be a demand from the inspector(4)If the inspector had opened the oven door, he would have seen _______.A.an empty panB.many clean dishesC.pieces of baked breadD.a cloth covering something(5)The inspector waved his arms ______.A.to try his best to keep steadyB.to show his satisfaction with the floorC.to extend a warm greeting to Glenn's motherD.to express his intention to continue the inspection21.(2015·湖南) Section A (10 marks)Directions: Read the following passage. Fill in the numbered blanks by using the information from the pass age. Write NO MORE THAN THREE WORDS for each answer.Not all print dictionaries are the same, as you will notice when you select one. To make a wise s election, you should know how to distinguishamong three kinds of print dictionaries: pocket, desk, and unabridged. You should also know the copyright date of your dictionary, andcheck is special features.A pocket dictionary is small. Generally, it contains no more than 75000 entries, making it hardly to carry to class and efficient to use.However, a pocket dictionary doesn't contain enough entries to be adequate for college reference homework. In addition, the informationabout each word in a pocket dictionary is generally limited. A desk dictionary is medium sized, generally containi ng over 100,000 entriesas well as extra features. For college work, you should own a current desk dictionary. An unabridged dictionary i s a complete dictionary.Abridged dictionaries, such as pocket and desk dictionaries, are shortened. Because unabridged dictionaries cont ain nearly all English words,they are large and heavy. They are often used by schools and libraries.If the copyright date of your current dictionary shows that it was published five or more years ago, consid er investing in a more recentedition. English is a dynamic language that admits new words and recognizes changes in meaning, spelling, and u sage of familiar words.This is reflected in an up-to-date dictionary.In selecting a dictionary, check the features it offers besides vocabulary definitions. Many editions contain signs, symbols and foreign words.Some also contain CD-ROMs and access to special online features.根据内容，在对应的空格写上正确的答案！1、________2、________3、________4、________5、________6、________7、________8、________9、________10、________22.（2015·湖南）Directions: Read the following passage. Answer the questions according to the information given in the pa ssage.Walk Out of the Comfort Zone and Try New ThingsFor most high school students, free periods are useless. From what I have seen, few do homework, instead many are on their phonesand talking, making it impossible for those who actually want to do work to complete any. As a senior next year, I think extra periods should be used to take optional subjects.Our school offers many classes. Now is the time to experiment in different fields of study. We will never know if we are interested ortalented in a subject if we don't try it.In my 8th grade, I was told that I had to take an art class as a graduation requirement; so in the 9th grade I took Studio and Art. Oneof the projects was to build a clay pot, but I built mine incorrectly, so it broke in the kiln(窑). I found out that I have no artistic ability at all, and now I know for sure that I do not want to be an artist. Ho wever, the class wasone of my favorites that year. I was able to try new activities and test my ability.Walk out of our comfort zone and try new things! College is when we should focus on a specific major, but high s chool is when wehave to figure it out.Half of all college students change their major at some point. By doing that hundreds of dollars are wasted on cla sses that they wouldhave never needed to take. So use our extra periods to find out what we want to do in college. The classes we ch oose can impact us infuture. Taking optional subjects will enrich our mind. It will also show colleges we are diverse students.(1)How should we use our extra periods in the author's opinion?(2)Why does the author think we should experiment in different fields of study?(3)Why did the clay pot show the author's lack of artistic ability?(4)According to the author, how will taking optional subjects impact up in the future?四.写作题23.（2015·湖南）Directions: Write an English composition according to the instructions given below.请以老师当众表扬你为话题，用下面所给的句子开头，续写一篇英语短文。
