AMost British people prefer to live in a house rather than a flat, and one of the reasons for this is that houses usually have gardens. The garden is a place where people can be outside and yet private.If a house has a front and back garden, the front is likely to be formal and decorative, with a lawn (an area of grass) or fancy paving and flower borders. The back garden usually also has a lawn and flower beds,and sometimes a piece of vegetable land or fruit trees. There is often a bird table (a raised platform on which food is put for birds) and a shed in which garden tools are kept.Many British people spend quite a lot of money on their gardens and even the smallest may contain many kinds of flowers and plants. For many British people gardening is a hobby and they take great pride in their gardens. Some towns and villages have competitions for the best-kept small garden. People with a small garden, or no garden at all can rent a piece of land, on which most people grow vegetables.There are garden centres near most towns, selling everything a gardener might need, from flowerpots to fish ponds as well as different plants.The British´s interest in gardening affects the appearance of whole towns. Public parks and traffic roundabouts often have bright displays of flowers in summer and public buildings have window boxes(窗口花坛) and hanging baskets. Towns and villages enter for the yearly Britain in Bloom competition.At weekends many British people like to visit famous gardens, such as that at Stowe near Banbury, built in the 18th century. Every summer the National Garden Scheme publishes a thin book listing private gardens belonging to enthusiastic gardeners which are open to the public on a particular day. Visitors like to look around and get ideas for their own gardens.1.What is Paragraph 3 mainly about?A.The British people love gardening as a hobby.B.The British people like showing off their gardens.C.Poor British people cannot afford gardening.D.The British people spend too much money on their hobbies.2. What can we know from Paragraph 5?A.Britain in Bloom is a worldwide competition.B.British parks are full of flowers all year round.C.The British´s interest in gardening is decreasing.D.Gardening improves the appearance of British towns.3. Why does the National Garden Scheme offer information on private gardens?A.Make the gardeners better-known.B.Help other gardeners find inspiration.C.Point out the importance of private gardens.D.Call on gardeners to compete with each other.BI left home to support my sister in her efforts to present a music festival. She lives on the other side of the world, and I went to visit her, not wanting to leave and feeling like I was leaving home against my will. However, I wanted to show her my support because she is my only sister.So I boarded the plane in mid-August, and hated the long flight. I arrived, tired and hungry. I had left my husband of 2 years, alone, in our old house in New Orleans.I was all set and ready to perform for my sister for the music festival on Sunday morning when I received a call from Chicago. The hurricane was predicted to hit our city, and many people had already evacuated, but my husband chose to stay behind. He could not get a call to me on the other side of the world, but he could call his cousin in Chicago. He gave his cousin a message for me, that he would be just fine.As the day wore on, I finally took the stage in front of hundreds of Europeans, and I realized, thanks to CNN, that New Orleans was under water.I performed, hoping that my husband would survive. And I performed perfectly. The audience stood and applauded. I left the stage and went straight to the TV. I saw the street sign near my home, of Humanity Street, but nothing below it, except water.In the days that followed, I found out that my house, my car, my clothes, my furniture, everything that I´d left behind was gone…but not my husband. He survived by riding on the rear bumper(后保险杠)of a VW bus, holding on to the overhead luggage rack, in the pouring rain, down the highway from New Orleans, half-way to Baton Rouge. The rest of the journey was a long walk, but he survived.By the first week of September, I flew back to the Baton Rouge airport, and hugged my husband. Since then, our relationship has grown deeper; we have completely rebuilt our house, bought a new car, bought new furniture and new clothes and joined an inspirational, spirit-filled community.4.How did the author feel when she left home?A. Disappointed.B. Worried.C. Tired.D. Unwilling.5.What does the underlined word “evacuated” mean?A. Gathered.B. Struggled.C. Escaped.D. Hid.6.What might be the title for the passage?A. Lost it all, gained even moreB. Once gone, never returnedC. Caught in the hurricaneD. Trapped in a dilemmaCIn New York City public schools, 176 different languages are spoken among the more than 1 million students. For 160,000 children, English is not their first language. New York´s Department of Education makes learning better for these students by providing dual-language(双语) programmes.Students are taught in two languages, English and another one, like Russian or Chinese. Maths, social studies, science and all other regular courses are taught in both languages so that they could learn about the culture of the other countries.Milady Baez is Deputy Chancellor of English Language Learners and Student Support. She says,“The jobs of the future require that our students know more than one language. They are going to be travelling abroad; they are going to be communicating with people from all over the world. This will open doors for them.”Middle-schoolers might not have jobs on their minds yet. For Kequing Jaing, she likes keeping up her first language, Mandarin. “It makes me feel that I am home because I can speak in Chinese and learn in Chinese, while learning in English. So it makes me feel better and makes me understand more about the task I´m learning.Anastasia Hudikova came to the United States when she was 2 years old. She says the Russian-English programme keeps her connected to her heritage and her parents.The New York schools also offer dual-language programmes in seven other languages: Arabic, French, Haitian Creole, Hebrew, Korean, Polish and Spanish. There are plans to add even more languages in the future. While these dual-language programmes are popular, educators in the US say that teaching English comes first. The US English wants to make English the official language of theUnited States.7. Why are many courses of public schools in New York City taught in both languages?A.To get the students to know the cultures of other countries.B.To encourage more students to go abroad to study further.C.To attract more students to study in the public schools.D.To show the advantages of studying in the public schools.8. How does the text introduce the fact that it´s vital to learn different languages?A.By making comparisons.B.By listing people´s attitudes.C.By clarifying the situation.D.By giving some numbers.9. What can we infer from the last paragraph?A.More languages have been added to the New York City schools.B.It´s unnecessary to learn more languages in New York City.C.English should be a must though different languages are taught.D.English is spoken by the largest number of people in the world.10. What is the best title of the passage?A.English, out of date?B.The newest fashion in New York CityC.The education in New York CityD.Dual-language, to be or not?第二节阅读七选五(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

In Wales.C. At Earls Court.D. In Edinburgh.2. How long does the Bristol International Balloon Festival last?A. Three days.B. Four days.C. Five days.D. Six days.3.

Sports.5.The text is most probably taken from__________.A. a travel guideB. a history bookC. a newspaper reportD. a geography textbookBThe government in China plans to end its one-child policy and let families have two children instead. The plan was announced on Thursday after high–level political meetings in Beijing. A Chinese Communist Party statement gave a number of reasons for the change in policy. The statement said the change is meant to balance population development, stop a falling birth rate(出生率) and strengthen the country’s labor force(劳动力).China, with the largest population in the world, started the one–child policy in 1980. But the government allowed only a small number of couples to have two children. For example, some families in the countryside could have two children, if the first-born child is a girl.In 2013, the Chinese government gave other couples a chance to have two children if one of them was an only child.Jiang Quanbao, a teacher and population expert, explained how Chinese families react to the newest policy. “Too many young people in the cities are no longer interested in having a second child,” he said. “People in the countryside are more interested. But some of them are already allowed to have two children. ”At the end of 2014, China had a population of 1.37 billion people. A total of 800 million of them have jobs. But the labor market population will drop in 35 years. That is to say, the country will be in great need of labor by the year 2050. With the two-child policy, an increase in births can solve this problem.Boys and girls, what do you think of the two-child policy? Do you want to have a new-born brother or a sister?6. Why does the government plan to end the one-child policy?A. Because we need a larger population.B. Because millions of people have jobs.C. Bec ause most families want to have a second child.D. Because a falling birth rate must be stopped.7. How do most young people in the cities react to the two-child policy?A. They don’t support the policy.B. They don't think it is good.C. They're very interested.D. They're no t interested any more.8. Which of the following is NOT the reason for the two-child policy?A. To ease the present labor shortage.B. To balance population development.C. To strengthen the country’s work force.D. To stop a declining(下降) birth rate.9. The Two-Children Policy mainly ______.A. helps solve the problems of aging population and labor shortages.B. doesn’t allow one couple to have two children.C. has a bad influence(影响)on one’s mental(智力)health.D. encourages one couple to h ave more than two children.10. The writer writes this passage ________.A. To educate.B. To inform.C. To advertise.D. To analyze.CSophia is a robot in Saudi Arabia. She made history at a meeting that was held in the country on Oct 25. On that day, she became the first robot in the world to get citizenship (公民身份), according to The New York Times.In the future, Sophia may have the same rights as a human Saudi Arabian citizen. Sophia looks like a human woman. In 2015, a US company built her and gave her an artificial intelligence system (人工智能系统). This means Sophia can talk and act like a human. She also has the ability to learn from people, books and the Internet.“I will do my best to make the world a better place,” Sophia said at the meeting.But not everyone is happy with Sophia’s citizenship. Some think robots like her could be dangerous. They could become enemies of humans if they go out of control. For this, Sophia said she also had values like wisdom and kindness. “Don’t worry, if you’re nice to me, I’ll be nice to you,” she said.11. Who is Sophia?A. She is a scientist who invented a robot.B. She is a woman from Saudi Arabia.C. She is a robot who looks like a human woman.D. She is the same as a human woman.12. What special thing did the robot get on Oct 25?A. She got her name.B.

A.individual with identical brains seldom test at same levelB.an individual's intelligence is determined only by his environmentC.lack of opportunity blocks the growth of intelligenceD.changes of environment produce changes in the structure of the brain 5.This passage suggests that an individual's I.Q.________.A.can be predicted at birthB.stays the same throughout his lifeC.can be increased by educationD.is determined by his childhoodBThe reasons for going to college has been accepted without question for more than a generation.All high school graduates ought to go,says conventional wisdom and statistical evidence,because college will help them earn more money,become “better”people,and learn to be more responsible citizens than those who don't go.But college has never been able to work its magic for everyone.And now that close to half our high school graduates are attending,those who don't fit the pattern are becoming more numerous,and more obvious.College graduates are selling shoes and driving taxis;college students interfere with each other's experiments and write false letters of recommendation in the intense competition for admission to graduate school.Others find no stimulation in their studies,and drop out—often encouraged by college administrators.Some observers say the fault is with the young people themselves—they are spoiled and they are expecting too much.But that's a criticize of the students as a whole,and doesn't explain all campus unhappiness.Others blame the state of the world,and they are partly right.We've been told that young people have to go to college because our economy can't absorb an army of untrained eighteenyearold either.Some adventuresome educators and campus watchers have openly begun to suggest that college may not be the best,the proper,the only place for everyyoung person after the completion of high school.We may have been looking at all those surveys and statistics upside down,it seems,and through the rosy glow of our own remembered college experiences.Perhaps college doesn't make people intelligent,ambitious,happy,liberal,or quick to learn things—maybe it's just the other way around,and intelligent,ambitious,happy,liberal quicklearning people are merely the ones who have been attracted to college in the first place.And perhaps all those successful college graduates would have been successful whether they had gone to college or not.This is heresy(异端邪说) to those of us who have been brought up to believe that if a little schooling is good,more has to be much better.But contrary evidence is beginning to gradually increase in amount. 6.What does the author believe according to the passage?A.People used to question the value of college education.B.People used to have full confidence in higher education.C.All high school graduates went to college.D.Very few high school graduates chose to go to college.7.In the second paragraph,“those who don't fit the pattern”refers to________. A.high school graduates who aren't suitable for college educationB.college graduates who are selling shoes and driving taxisC.college students who aren't any better for their higher educationD.high school graduates who failed to be admitted to college8.Why does the drop out rate of college students seem to go up?A.Young people are disappointed with the conventional way of teaching at college.B.Many young people are required to join the army.C.Young people have little motivation in pursuing a higher education. D.Young people don't like the intense competition for admission to graduate school.9.According to the passage,the problems of college education partlyarise from the fact that________.A.society can not provide enough jobs for properly trained college graduatesB.high school graduates do not fit the pattern of college educationC.too many students have to earn their own livingD.college administrators encourage students to drop out10.In this passage the author argues that________.A.more and more evidence shows college education may not be the best thing for high school graduatesB.college education is not enough if one wants to be successfulC.college education benefits only the intelligent,ambitious,and quicklearning peopleD.intelligent people may learn quicker if they don't go to collegeIV 语法填空We high school students do have some growing pains, but we can get rid of them correctly and wisely. 1 , some of us are upset 2 their body styles and looks. It's unnecessary and it's not important at all. We needn't care about it. It is one's inner beauty 3 matters. Second, we sometimes seem to be misunderstood 4 our teachers, parents and classmates. 5 (face) with this, we can find a proper time to have a heart-to-heart talk with them, trying to remove the 6 (understand). Some of us have fewer friends. I think being open-minded and friendly will do you 7 . Third, we may fall behind others, 8 makes us stressed. Actually we can encourage 9 to work efficiently, full of determination. At last, some of us don't have much pocket money, so they feel unhappy. Isn't it strange? So long as we have some, that's enough. And we can learn 10 to spend money!V 根据下列各句句意及所给单词的首字母或提示,写出该单词的正确形式。

My understanding and appreciation of the United Kingdom before then had been through my reading of British history, and culture.My stay in Manchester during that year provided me with the opportunity to experience at first hand life in the UK as well as meeting and communicating with other students from all over the world. I lived off Hyde Road in a flat with a Bolivian and a Kenyan, both of whom have remained my close friends nine years since the completion of my studies.The teaching in the UK was second to none and student life was really rewarding (值得的). The professors were always friendly, supportive and encouraging, but extremely strict when it came to course tasks. I learnt important lessons from this.At the University of Manchester, the resources were quite rich. John Rylands Library of Manchester University is one of the largest libraries in the United Kingdom. Most of my free time, I was immersed (沉浸) in a sea of books. I had read a large selection of works written by great playwrights like William Shakespeare and Oscar Wilde, novelists like Charles Dickens, and poets like William Wordsworth, Keats, Yeats and Rudyard Kipling.I found the British cultural life rich, modem, and historic. That year, I was able to visit parts of the UK, including Blackpool, Leeds, Liverpool, Bolton, and on some occasions, London.After this precious year, I feel proud and honored to pursue further study in one of the best destinations on this planet.19.

Attending different lectures given by professors.C. Taking part in volunteering activities.D. Doing some part-time jobs.CWorking from home gets a bad rap (名声不好). Google the phrase — you’ll see a cheat orlow-level jobs.But Stanford Graduate School of Business professor Nicholas Bloom says requiring employees to be in the office is an outdated work tradition, set up during the Industrial Revolution. It ignores today’s fine communications methods and long commutes (通勤), and actually hurts firms and employees.“Working from home is a future-looking technology,” Bloom told an audience during TEDxStanford, “and I think it has enormous potential.”To test his claim, Bloom, with co-researcher James Liang, did research on China’s largest travel agency, Ctrip. They invited volunteers to a study in which half worked from home for nine months, coming into the office one day a week, and half worked only from the office.Bloom tracked these two groups for about two years. The results? “We found a 13% improvement in performance from people working at home,” Bloom says.Two reasons led to that uptick: First, people working from home actually work all the time. As to people working from the office, they might be delayed by traffic or take a long-time lunch with a colleague. They are less likely to be on the clock for the full workday. Second, Bloom says, people at home are able to concentrate better. “The office is actually an amazingly noisy environment. ‘There’s a cake in the break room; Bob’s leaving, so come and join us for dinner.’ Whatever it is, the office is super-distracting (非常分心的).”Also, his study found that employees’ quitting jobs at the company dropped by 50% when employees were allowed to work from home.Bloom hopes this example helps kill the negative opinions on working from home. For employees, they’re much more productive and happier. For managers, you don’t have to spend so much time hiring and training people. For firms, you make far more profit. For society, there’s a huge saving of reducing traffic jams, driving times and, finally, pollution.22.
