Rules for riding motor vehicles on camps.BWhen you think about math, you p robably don’t think about breaking the law, solving mysteries or finding criminals. But a mathematician in Maryland does, and he has come up with mathematical tools to help police find criminals.People who solve crimes look for patterns that might reveal (揭示) the identity of the criminal. It’s long been believed, for example, that c riminals will break the law closer to where they live, simply because it’s easier to get around in their own neighborhood. If police see a pattern of robberies in a certain area, they may look for a suspect who lives near the crime scenes. So, the farther away from the area a crime takes place, the less likely it is that the same criminal did it.But Mike O’Leary, a mathematic ian at Towson University in Maryland, says that this k ind of approach may be too simple. He says that police may get better clues to the location of a criminal’s home base by combining these patterns with a city’s layout (布局) and historical crime records.The records of past crimes contain geographical information and can reveal easy targets —that is, the kind of stores that might be less difficult to rob. Because these stores are along roads, the locations of past crimes contain information about where major streets and intersections are. O’Leary is writing a new computer program that will quickly provide this kind of information for a given city. His program also includes information about the people who live in the city, and information about how a criminal’s patterns change with age. It’s been shown, for e xample, that the younger the criminal, the closer to home the crime.Other computer programmers have worked on similar software, but O’Leary’s uses more math. The mathematician plans to make his computer program available, free of charge, to police departments around the country.The program is just one way to use math to fight crime. O’Leary says that criminology — the study of crime and criminals —contains a lot of good math problems. “I feel like I’m in a gold mine and I’m the only one who knows what go ld looks like,”he says. “It’s a lot of fun.”61. To find criminals, police usually _________.A. check who are on the crime sceneB. seek help from local peopleC. depend on new mathematical toolsD. focus on where crimes take place62. O’Leary is writing a computer program that _________.A. uses math to increase the speed of calculationB. tells the identity of a criminal in a certain areaC. provides the crime records of a given cityD. shows changes in criminals’ patterns63. By “I’m the only one who knows what gold looks like”, O’Leary means that he _________.A. is better at finding gold than othersB. is the only one who uses math to make moneyC. knows best how to use math to help solve crimesD. has more knowledge of gold than other mathematicians64. What do you know about O’Leary according to the passage?A. He is a man full of impractical imagination.B. He is a man full of self-confidence.C. He is a man who is talkative but lazy.D. He is a man who doesn’t like mathematics.65. What is the main idea of the text?A. Math could help police find criminals.B. Criminals live near where crimes occur.C. Crime records could be used to fight crime.D. Computer software works in preventing crimes.CDepression is one of the most common mental health issues among Americans, and children are also affected by it. Childhood depression increases the risk of suicide. It’s important that parents become aware of the signs and symptoms of childhood depression, because children usually can’t express their feelings in a way that adults will understand that they’re depressed. One in every 33 children may be struggling with depression, according to Kids Health.Signs and Symptoms of Clinical Depression in ChildrenDepression in adults and children can look quite different. Sometimes children become impatient instead of sad and throw a tantrum(发脾气) when depressed. They might not necessarily look like the typical crying person that people are used to seeing on television when someone is described as depressed. Here are more symptoms of childhood depression: overwhelming sadness, weight loss or weight gain due to under-eating or over-eating, sleeplessness, low self-esteem(自尊),etc.A child who is depressed may refuse to go to school, have a sudden drop in his grades, and stop playing with his friends after school. Things that used to make him happy seem to no longer interest him.T reatment Options for Children Suffering from DepressionMedication, individual therapy, and family therapy are forms of treatment for children who are depressed. Many times it is recommended that children try different forms of psychotherapy before considering medication. The most commonly appointed medications for children who have a diagnosis of major depressive disorder are antidepressants(抗抑郁药). Some children need a combination of therapy and medication to reduce the symptoms of depression. It depends on each child’s individual symptoms and the severity of the depression. In any form of treatment, parents play an essential part and should be fully involved.It can be scary for a parent to think that his child is depressed; however, it’s important to understand the signs and symptoms of depression, signs of suicidal thoughts, treatment options forchildhood depression and the basic information about antidepressants.66. From the text we can learn that ______.A. depression is the most common mental problem in AmericaB. about 3 percent of children may be suffering from depressionC. when a child struggles with depression, what he needs most is medicineD. signs and symptoms of depression in children are quite similar to those in adults67. According to the text, we know that if a child is depressed, he may _______.A. get angry easilyB. talk with his parents about his problemC. go out with his friends and have a big mealD. have no interest in anything except watching TV68. All the following are signs and symptoms of childhood depression EXCEPT“________”.A. lack of self-respectB. over-eating or under-eatingC. having difficulty in falling asleepD. often crying when watching TV69. From Paragraph 4, we can infer that _______.A. only the severity of depression determines the form of treatmentB. medication is the most useful form of treatment for depressionC. a child suffering from depression should turn to a psychologist firstD. in dealing with depression, parents play the most important role70. What is the passage about?A. Why children will have depression.B. How we should treat depression in childhood.C. What the symptoms and treatment of depression in children are.D. When the best time for parents to treat depression in children is.PART FOUR WRITINGSECTION ADirection: Read the following passage. Complete the diagram by using the information from the passage.Write NO MORE THAN THREE WORDS for each answer.Direction: 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.How we look and how we appear to others probably worries us more when we are in our teens or early twenties than at any other time in our life. Few of us are content to accept ourselves as we are, and few are brave enough to ignore the trends of fashion?Most fashion magazines or TV advertisements try to persuade us that we should dress in a certain way or behave in a certain manner. If we do, they tell us, we will be able to meet new people with confidence and deal with every situation confidently and without embarrassment. Changing fashion, of course, does not apply just to dress. A barber today does not cut a boy’s hair in the same way as he used to, and girls do not make up in the same way as their mothers and grandmothers did. The advertisers show us the latest fashionable styles and we are constantly under pressure to follow the fashion in case our friends think we are odd or dull.What causes fashions to change? Sometimes convenience or practical necessity or just the fancy of an influential person can establish a fashion. Take hats for example. In cold climates, early buildings were cold inside, so people wore hats indoors as well as outside. In recent times, the late President Kennedy caused a depression in the American hat industry by not wearing hats: more American men followed his example.There is also a cyclical pattern in fashion. In the 1920s in Europe and America, short skirts became fashionable. After World War Two, they dropped to ankle length. Then they got shorter and shorter the miniskirt was in fashion. After a few more years, skirts became longer again. Today, society is much freer and easier than it used to be. It is no longer necessary to dress like everyone else. Within reason, you can dress as you like or do your hair the way you like instead of the way you should because it is the fashion. The popularity of jeans and the “untidy” look seems to be a reaction against the increasingly expensive fashion of the top fashion houses.At the same time, appearance is still important in certain circumstances and then we must choose our clothes carefully. It would be foolish to go to an interview for a job in a law firm wearing jeans and a sweater; and it would be discourteous to visit some distinguished scholar looking as if we were going to the beach or a night club. However, you need never feel depressed if you don’t look like the latest fashion photo. Look around you and you’ll see that no one else does either.I.

Answer the questions according to the information given in the passage and the required words limit. Write your answers on your answer sheet.JIUQUAN, June 15 (Xinhua) -- An eloquent speaker and a lover of cooking, Liu Yang iswell-poised to be the first Chinese woman in space.When she watched the news on television of China's first manned space mission in 2003, the pilot couldn't help but wonder: What would the Earth look like from outer space?Nine years later, Liu is getting the opportunity to find out herself as China's first female astronaut, taking her place among three Chinese chosen to crew the Shenzhou-9 manned spacecraft.Liu will be in charge of medical experiments during the mission, which will also featureChina's first attempt at a manual space docking procedure."I have full confidence," Liu said before the mission. “Men and women have their own advantages and capabilities in carrying out space missions. They can complement each other and better complete their mission."The native of central China's Henan province started looking toward the skies just after high school, when one of her teachers convinced her to enroll in an aviation school.Joining the People's Liberation Army (PLA) Air Force in 1997, Liu became a veteran pilot after flying safely for 1,680 hours. She was promoted to deputy head of a PLA flight unit before being recruited as a prospective astronaut in May 2010. She is now an Air Force major.Liu has been described by her colleagues as being outgoing, eloquent and well-versed. Since joining the military, she has received accolades for her public speaking, winning first place in a military speech contest in 2010.She has also impressed others as a quick learner. After becoming a prospective astronaut in 2010, she devoted the first year to basic academic and physical training. Before the start of the Shenzhou-9 mission, she had finished all scheduled training courses."Despite starting her training late, she is now on the same page as us, which is beyond our expectations," said Jing Haipeng, commander of the mission.Jing was also impressed by the swiftness and decisiveness Liu has displayed during training sessions, citing the calm manner she displays in dealing with simulated emergencies.However, the difficulty and intensity of her training has not deprived her of life's pleasures. Liu loves reading, particularly novels, essays and history books. She is also a proficient cook."I love children and I love life," said Liu, who lives in Beijing with her husband. "To be with my family is one kind of happiness, but to fly is another kind that people cannot typically experience."81. How many astronauts are there in the Shenzhou-9 manned spacecraft?

From childhood to old age, we all use language as a means of broadening our knowledge of ourselves and the world about us. When humans first 1 , they were like newborn children, unable to use this 2 tool. Yet once language developed, the possibilities for human kind‘s future 3 and cultural growth increased.Many linguists believe that evolution is 4 for our ability to produce and use language. They 5 that our highly evolved brain provides us with an innate language ability not found in lower 6 . Proponents of this innateness theory say that our 7 for language is inborn, but that language itself develops gradually, as a function of the growth of the brainduring childhood. Therefore there are critical 8 times for language development.Current 9 of innateness theory are mixed, however, evidence supporting the existence of some innate abilities is undeniable. Indeed, more and more schools are discovering that foreign languages are best taught in the lower grades. Young children often can learn several languages by being 10 to them, while adults have a much harder time learning another language once the 11 of their first language have become firmly fixed.Although some aspects of language are undeniably innate, language does not develop automatically in a vacuum. Children who have been 12 from other human beings do not possess language. This demonstrates that 13 with other human beings is necessary for proper language development. Some linguists believe that this is even more basic to human language 14 than any innate capacities. These theorists view language as imitative, learned behavior. 15 , children learn language from their parents by imitating them. Parents gradually shape their child's language skills by positively reinforcing precise imitations and negatively reinforcing imprecise ones.1. A. generated B. evolved C. born D. originated2.

Fill in each blank with words or phrases that best fits the context.Everyone wants to win a first-place blue ribbon, to be the best in something. Even kids in Kindergarten want that blue ribbon. In sports, I was never a blue-ribbon person. In a race, I was always 36 . In baseball I was likely to be 37 on the head or drop the ball. During the spring of my kindergarten year, our class had a field trip to a park in a town about twenty miles away. Making that drive now is no big 38 but when you’re six and you’ve lived in a town of 300 people all your life, going to a big town of a couple of thousand people is really something.I don’t remember too much about it. But there was one that I will never forget —the __39__ race. The parents tied our feet together. One little boy got me for a 40 . He was the second most 41 boy in our class so he usually won at everything and I knew that with me tied to him he didn’t have a chance. And I’m sure he knew he was in trouble. The gun sounded and we were off. Some couples were falling and stumbling all around us, 42 we stayed on our feet and made it to the other side. 43 , when we turned around and headed back for home, we were in the lead! Only one couple had a chance to win, and they were a good several yards behind us.A few feet from the finish line, disaster struck: I tripped and fell. We were 44 enough that my partner could have easily dragged me across the finish line and won. But he didn’t. Instead he stopped, 45 down and helped me up —just at the other couple crossed the finish line. As a result, we received a small red ribbon for coming in second.I still remember that moment when the young boy decided that helping a friend get on her feet was more important than winning a blue ribbon. And 13 years later, I still have that little ribbon because it’s a 46 that a friend like this boy is one who really 47 .36. A. last B. first C. quick D. successful37.

It was in the summer of 2009, in Six Flags, Massachusetts, the US. I went 48 with a group of friends. We were all very excited about roller coaster 49 waited anxiously for the ride to begin. As the roller coaster got up higher and higher, however, my heart started to beat 50 hard that I even could see myshirt move up and down. I could feel the wind getting stronger and brushing through my hair. Then the big drop came. I closed my eyes and told 51 that it would be over in two seconds, but it felt like forever. I was pushed up from my seat as if I 52 to be thrown out of the car. 53 the time I finished the ride, I could barely stand up or speak. So when my friends asked me 54 I thought of the ride, I just answered with silence. No matter how hard I tried, I could not make 55 sound.PART THREE READING COMPREHENSIONDirections：Read the following three passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage.AAggressive pedestrians are in fact as dangerous as careless drivers. They cause traffic accidents, injury and death.These dangerous walkers can be seen in any big city over the world. About 69% of last year’s pedestrian deaths in the US occurred in urban areas. They cross streets ignoring “DON’T W ALK” signals, suddenly appear without warning from behind parked vehicles, walk slowly at crossroads with cell phones attached to heads, blocking traffic.These pedestrians and drivers share a common disregard for the rules of the road, both for selfish reasons. The drivers believe in the power of their machines. If their machines can go faster, they believe they have the right to go faster. If their machines are bigger, they believe they have the right to push smaller vehicles aside. Aggressive pedestrians, on the other hand, believe in the primacy(首位) of the individual, the idea that they are first in any environment, under any circumstances, even when they are on foot in a roaring tide of steel and rubber.Last year, an estimated 5,220 pedestrians died in traffic accidents. Some 69,000 pedestrians were injured. On average, that worked out to one pedestrian killed in a traffic crash every 101 minutes, and one injured every eight minutes.The good news is that the accident rate is dropping. For example, the number of pedestrians killed last year was 24 percent less than the number killed in traffic accidents a decade earlier. The bad news is that the basic causes of pedestrian deaths remain pretty much the same----disregard for traffic signals, inattention and crossing roads under the influence of alcohol and drugs. Alcohol, in fact, was involved in 46 percent of the traffic accidents that resulted in pedestrian deaths. Of those, 31 percent of the pedestrians were found to be drunk.The bottom line is that the pedestrians must do more to protect their lives as well as the lives of other road users. They can start by obeying traffic signals, using marked cross-walks and calling a cab when they’ve had too much to drink.56. The passage is mainly about __________.A. how aggressive pedestrians cause traffic accidentsB. why so many Americans were killed on roads last yearC. what the traffic rules of the road about pedestrians wereD. who are to blame for pedestrian deaths, drunk drivers or the aggressive pedestrians57. What is the pedestrians’ selfish reason for traffic jams?A. They know all drivers are skilled and with great care.B. They believe individuals are always first.C. They think traffic rules have nothing to do with them.D. They guess all vehicles will slow down at crossroads.58. What was NOT the basic cause of pedestrian deaths in the US a decade ago?A. Disregard for traffic signalsB. Paying no attention to surroundings.C. Crossing roads drunk.D. Overspeeding driving.59. As one of all the road users, what should we students do on busy roads?A. Obey traffic signals at crossroads.B. Run as fast as possible at crossroads.C. Talk on your cell phone if necessary.D. Always watch out for big trucks.60. What word can best describe the author’s attitude to the traffic accidents caused by pedestrians?A. Excited.B. Cold.C. ConcernedD. Inconnected.BChristmas, Easter and Birthday parties can be difficult times for grandmothers and parents as they rush around trying to arrange the perfect celebration or making everyone as happy as possible!

If your son wants a traditional Advent calendar, you should search _________.A. BirthdaysB. Advent CalendarsC. Christmas-stocking fillersD. ChristmasCThere is a saying in French—“Si vieillesse pouvait, si jeunesse savait”—which means roughly “if age had the ability, if youth had the knowledge.” I was reminded of this saying the other day when I saw an interview with a distinguished Asian neurosurgeon(神经外科医生), now retired, about the impact of computer technology on modern surgery.He was referring to the difficulty people of his age had in using the new techniques, but also to the fact that younger surgeons, who are more comfortable with the technology, lack some of the wisdom of experience.It struck me that this problem is not just confined(局限于) to specialized fields such as medicine, but is widespread in modern life. There are many areas where the rapid growth of technology has widened the generation gap.Young people are at ease with modern technology and propose all sorts of ways for using and developing it. But they often lack the experience needed to see further into the future to the possible dangers that a particular development may cause.Older people see all sorts of difficulties and dangers, but are sometimes ignored, or even accused of being against progress, if they point out potential problems. Equally, they may see potential uses, but not have the technical skills to put them into practice themselves or the trust in the younger generation to do so.Enthusiasm and inexperience come into conflict with caution and arrogance, usually with unsatisfactory results for both sides.What is needed is the development of a partnership, based on mutual respect, which can deliver real progress by combining enthusiasm and caution in a constructive way, rather than in conflict with each other. The old need to give the younger generation the time, the resources and, above all, the authority to develop new ideas and use their skills. In exchange, the young need toturn more actively to the older generation to seek their advice and exploit their greater experienceof the world in foreseeing and overcoming potential problems.66. The passage is mainly about ________.A. the impact of computer technology on modern surgeryB. an interview with a distinguished Asian neurosurgeonC. new generation gap between the old and the youngD. a conflict between knowledge and experience67. The French saying in the first paragraph is used to ________.A. introduce the topicB. show the difference between French and EnglishC. make readers confusedD. prove the writer’s wisdom68. What did the retired neurosurgeon probably mention in his interview?A. Old people’s enthusiasm in obtaining new technology.B. Old people’s difficulty in using computers.C. Young surgeons’ bad manners in working.D. Young surgeons’ difficulty in get ting experience.69. In the writer’s view, what advantage do the older generation have?A. They are happy with modern technology.B. They are easy to learn new techniques.C. They can foresee the future of the young generation.D. They are rich in work experience.70. What conclusion can be drawn from the last paragraph?A. The young and the old should respect and learn from each other.B. The young should teach the old modern technology.C. The old should maintain their authority in every field.D. The young and the old should work independently.PART FOUR WRITING (45 marks)SECTION A (10 marks)Directions: Read the following passage. Fill in the numbered blanks by using the information for the passage. Write NO MORE THAN 3 WORDS for each answer.Having long been underrated(低估) and ignored, the penny is one of America's most enduring failures. But a recent proposal to ban the penny by some US congress members seeks toput the coin to sleep — permanently.Representative Jim Kolbe from Arizona is the man who proposed the bill to stamp out penny.He says the coin has outlived its usefulness. With metal prices soaring, Kolbe says it costs 1.23 cents to produce a penny. Producing the coins will amount to a $20 million waste each year.It is not simply about the cost of production. Centuries of inflation have made the penny—firstput into circulation in 1787—close to worthless.Many Americans don’t even view pennies as currency any more. They take them only reluctantly in change and then put them in jars or desk drawers at home. An estimated $10.5billion in pennies, or $93.75 per household, sits idle in piggy banks and behind sofas.Anti-penny advocates argue that 1-cent coins cost US companies more than $300 million a year in lost productivity. This comes mostly from the time and effort spent counting and putting pennies into paper rolls for bank deposits.Jim Kolbe suggests that all cash transactions be rounded to the nearest nickel. For example, items that cost 11 or 12 cents would be rounded down to 10, 13- and 14-cent items would be rounded up to 15. People paying by credit or bank card, however, would likely continue to pay exact amounts.But plenty of Americans oppose the ban. Some say eliminating the penny would cause significant hardship to a wide range of people.US economist Raymond Lombra says that moving to the 5-cent nickel would cost consumers $ 3 billion over five years. The poor suffer more since they tend to buy with cash instead of credit cards.Penny supporters point out that the penny is the on ly coin carrying the image of America’s much respected president Abraham Lincoln. Some major charities are also alarmed by talk of a penny ban. They often base fund-raising campaigns on donations of pennies and other coins. One such campaign is called “Pennies for Patients”. They have raised more than $68 million through coin collections since 1994.A recent US Today poll found that 55 percent of adults want to keep the penny. They may not value pennies as currency like before, but they remain attached to them as an old, familiar friend.“The penny has been a necessary part of the American experience---whose childhood would be complete without penny candy and other small purchases?” read a post supporting the penny on a forum.It shapes US superst itions. “Find a penny, pick it up, and all day you will have good luck.” “A penny saved is a penny earned.” And little girls are sometimes called “as pretty as a penny”.Title: Ban 71 Or Not?72 :They have long been underrated and ignored.Reasons for the ban:● The coin has outlived its usefulness.● 73 to produce coins are rising fast.● Centuries of inflation have made the penny close to worthless.● Large amount of 74 is wasted counting and putting pennies into paper rolls forbank deposits.75 :● All cash transactions are rounded to 76 .● People paying by credit or bank card would continue to pay exact amounts.Reasons against the ban:● Eliminating the penny would cause significant hardship to a wide range of p eople.● Rounding to the 5-cent nickel would cost consumers $3 billion over five years.● The penny is the only coin carrying the image of America’s much respected president___77 .● 78 base fund-raising campaigns on donations of pennies and other coins.● 55 percent of adults regard it as a necessary part of 79 .● The penny shapes 80 .SECTION B (10 points)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.Pollution is a growing problem that is facing the international community, but even the actions that we take can make a difference. Littering is creating environmental problems all over the world and is often created by careless individuals. If we guard our actions against careless littering we can ensure a better world for everyone.Littering is a severe problem in many countries around the world. For example, the African city of Kampala, the capitol of Uganda, is suffering from the consequences of littering. For many years the city’s poor didn’t have a proper way to dispose of trash, so garbage filled the streets. Over the years much of the plastic garbage would slowly be pushed into the ground. This plastic litter doesn’t allow rain water to seep into the ground and has caused flooding. In many of Kampala’s poor neighborhoods whenever it rains people’s homes become flooded with water. This water is often dirty and has allowed diseases to spread. This flooding has become so bad that the Ugandan government has banned plastic bags in the entire country to stop the littering.Trash often finds its way into the water. Today the world’s oceans are believed to have millions of tons of trash floating around in them. This creates a problem for wildlife because they may accidentally eat the trash and die from it. Scientists have found on very remote islands baby birds that have died because their stomachs were full of trash. Fish often get tangled in plastic and will also die. Our actions in our own countries affect the most remote parts of the planet.We can all be part of the solution to stop this pollution, just by preventing careless littering. If you need to throw something away, don’t toss it over your shoul der —find a trash can. If you see a friend littering tell them not to. By making this small change we can create a better world for all.81. What does the author say is the cause of littering? (No more than 4 words)________________________________________________________________________82. How does trash cause flooding? (No more than 10 words)_______________________________________________________________________83. How can local actions affect the international environment?
