I 36 it when I was three, long before I knew that scars were a 37 thing, especially for a girl. I only knew my scar brought me 38 and tenderness and candy. As I got older, I began to take 39 in my scar, in part to stop people laughing at me, but mainly as a reaction to the thought that I should feel uncomfortable. It‘s true I was uncomfortable when people called me‖ Scarface‖ the first couple of times. But the more I heard how 40 my scar was, the more I found myself liking it.When I turned fifteen, my parents decided it was time to 41 on the scar.‖But I don‘t mind the scar, really,‖ I told my father as he 42 that I would have theoperation during summer vacation. And my friends, along with my boyfriend at the time, felt as I did, that my scar was 43 and almost pretty in its own way. After so many years, it was a 44 of me. But my father said it was a deformity(畸形).I don‘t know what 45 more that day: hearing my father call my scar a deformity without caring about my feeling.I did have the operation that summer, and my scar was nowhere to be found, but no one asked me about it anymore. Therefore, as I leaned uneasily toward the mirror, I felt a sudden 46 There was something powerful about my scar and the proud person I 47 because of it.I have never been quite so strong since they cut it out.36.

Most of us are eager for success and scared of failure. However, no one is always successful 48 also no one is always a failure. Then 49 to deal with failure and success in our life?On the one hand, ―failure is the mother of success‖. If we sum 50 experiences and lessons after failure, maybe success will come. Nevertheless, if we lose our hearts and give up former efforts, we will 51 succeed. In a word, the key to success is our hard struggle. On the other hand, success may cause failure, too. Generally speaking, success often adds confidence and satisfaction, 52 failure companies with misery and sadness. But supposing 53 become self-satisfied once we succeed and stop struggling, then it‘s sure that failure will come. We should take 54 right attitude towards failure and success.In a word, there is not an absolute limit between success and failure. 55 is important is our struggle and attitude.Part III Reading Comprehension （30 marks）Directions: 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.AFew laws are so effective that you can see results just days after they take effect. But in the nine days since the federal cigarette tax more than doubled--- to $1.01 per pack---smokers have jammed telephone ―quit lines‖ across the country seeking to kick the habit.This is not a surprise to public health advocates. They‘ve studied the effect of state tax increase for years, finding that smokers, especially teens, are price sensitive. Nor is it a shock to the industry, which fiercely fights every tax increase.The only wonder is that so many states insist on closing their ears to the message. Tobacco taxes improve public health, they raise money and most particularly, they deter people from taking up the habit as teens, which is when nearly all smokers are addicted. Yet the rate of taxation varies widely.In Manhattan, for instance, which has the highest tax in the nation, a pack of Marlboro Light King cost $10.06 at one drugstore Wednesday. Charleston , S,C , where the 7-cent-a-pack tax is the lowest in the nation. The price is $4.78.The influence is obvious.In New York, high school smoking hit a new low in the latest surveys---13.8%, far below the nation average. By comparison, 26% of high school students smoke in Kentucky. Other low-tax states have similarly depressing teen-smoking records.Hal Rogers, representatives from Kentucky, like those who are against high tobacco taxes, argues that the burden of the tax falls on low-income Americans ― who choose to smoke‖.That‘s true. But there is more reason in keeping future generations of low—income workers from getting hooked in the first place. As for today‘s adults, if the new tax drives them to quit, they will have more to spend on their families, cut their risk of cancer and heart disease and feel better.56. The passage is mainly about __________A. the price of cigarettesB. the rate of teen smokingC. the effect of tobacco tax increaseD. the differences in tobacco tax rate57. What does the author think is a surprise?A. Teen smokers are price sensitive.B. Some states still keep the tobacco tax low.C. Tobacco taxes improve public health.D. Tobacco industry fiercely fights the tax rise.58. The unde rlined word ―deter‖ in Paragraph 3 most probably means_________.A. discardB. removeC. benefitD. free.59. Rogers‘ attitude towards the low- income smokers might be that of ________.A. toleranceB. unconcernC. doubtD. sympathy60. What can we learn from the last paragraph?A. The new tax will be beneficial in the long run.B. Low—income Americans are more likely to fall ill.C. Future generations will be hooked on smoking.D. Adults will depend more on their families.BFor 365 days, Christina Dean has decided to only wear second-hand clothes. In that way, she hopes to promote environmental sustainability( 可持续发展) in the fashion industry.The woman, The founder of ReDress, is wearing ―100% dumped(废弃的) and donated second-hand clothes.‖ for the whole year of 2013, with the exception of her underwear and shoes.Ms Dean said it was after she witnessed first hand some of the estimated 217 tons of textilewaste, being thrown into landfills every day, that she needed to take action.‖ I realized that the environmental gains made by the fashion industry‘s sustainablilty initiatives(积极性) become lost, when faced with this case of the waste,‖ she explained, In the UK, almost 10,000 pieces of clothes were dumped into landfill every five mi nutes.‖Each month, Ms Dean visits a recycling center, and picks out about 30 outfits. With the help of a stylist, she put together looks from the recycled clothing using specific themes: repurposed, DIY, repair or one little black dress worn for an entire month. ―The recycling center is full of bags with dumped clothes of every size, shape and style,‖ said Ms Dean, who won the 2011 EcoChic Design Award.Previous owners of her chosen clothes range from ―old Chinese grannies‖ to ―young Nigerian street vendor s‖, who often throw away designer goods.

The shirts appear brand new, once they are ironed.With three months to go before her project ends, Ms Dean plans to sell all of her outfits to raise money for ReDress and Friends of the Earth.61.

And they set a goal: to open 32 stores in ten years. After doing some research, Buck wrote a check for $1,000. DeLuca rented a storefront(店面) in Connecticut, and when they couldn‘t cover their start-up costs, Buck kicked in another $1,000.But business didn‘t go smoothly as they expected. DeLuca says, ―After six months, we weredoing poorly, but we didn‘t know how badly, because we didn‘t have any financial controls.‖ All he and Buck knew was that their sales were lower than their costs.DeLuca was managing the store and going to the University of Bridgeport at the same time. Buck was working at his day job as a nuclear physicist in New York. They‘d meet Monday evenings and brainstorm ideas for keeping the business running. ―We convinced ourselves to open a second store. We figured we could tell the public. ‗We are so successful, we are opening a second store.‘‖ And they did –in the spring of 1966. Still, it was a lot of learning by trial and error.But the partners ‗learn-as-you-go‘ app roach turned out to be their greatest strength. Every Friday, DeLuca would drive around and hand-deliver the checks to pay their suppliers. ―It probably took me two and a half hours and it wasn‘t necessary, but as a result, the suppliers got to know me ver y well, and the personal relationships established really helped out.‖ DeLuca says.And having a goal was also important. ―There are so many problems that can get you down.

Write NO MORE THAN THREE WORDS for each answer.Like our body, our memory needs regular exercise to be in good condition. Like the sportsman who must train to allow the body to respond to difficult times, the memory needs its own special training in order to stay in ―shape‖ and improve.There are many factors that can cause poor memory like insomnia (失眠), depression and alcohol. However, there are simple ways which you can follow to keep your memory in shape and actua lly help you to improve your memory‘s condition and performance.Never stop learning. Look for topics that interest you and really get involved in learning new information about them. Reading and attending lectures or programs are sources of continuous education of your brain with beneficial results to your memory.Develop your social and family relationships. The more social you are, the better it is for your brain. Studies have shown that the brain and heart have a lot to gain from good family andsocial relationships.Exercise your mind with games. The more you use your brain, the more you help your memory stay in shape. There are many games that can make you an intelligent person as well as entertain you such as chess, puzzles and board games.Exercise physically can improve your memory. This type of exercise improves the circulatory （血液循环的）system. Even the simple but regular daily exercise such as fast walking can improve the heart and oxygenation（供氧）of the brain. The benefits of exercise affect positively many body systems, as well as our memory and other cognitive（认知的）capabilities.Eat more fruit and vegetables. What we eat every day affects the performance and long-term condition of our memory.

Answer the questions according to the information given in the passage.Ninety-five per cent of people never succeed because they‘re following the wrong group.A French scientist once made an experiment with caterpillars (毛虫) looking for food. He led a group of caterpillars onto the edge of a large flowerpot so that the leader of the group found itself nose to tail with the last caterpillar, forming a circle without end or beginning. Out of habit, the ring of the caterpillars circled the flowerpot for seven days and seven nights until they died of starvation. In fact, plenty of food was close at hand, but it was outside the range of the circle, so the caterpillars continued along the wrong path.People often behave in the same way. For example, if someone shouts, ―Fire!‖ many people will follow the crowd blindly and many thousands have died because of it. How many stop to askthemselves: Is this really the best way out of here?Most people follow the crowd because it seems easier to follow the mainstream than to deal with change on their own even when that change may represent freedom, achievement and success.A hard thing for them to fully understand is that people in such numbers can be wrong. People thought the earth was flat and later it was believed that the sun, stars and planets travelled around the earth. Both ideas are now considered ridiculous, but at the time they were believed by the majority of followers.It‘s a good idea to step out of the line every once in a while and look around to see if the line is going where they want it to go. Success only favors those who think outside the box.81. How long did the caterpillar circle the flowerpot? (within 6 words)( 2 marks)82. Why couldn‘t the caterpillar find the food ever when it was close at hand? (within 10 words)( 2 marks)83. How does the author support his ideas? (no more than 5 words) ( 3 marks)84. What is the best title for the text? (within 7 words) ( 3 marks)Section C (25 marks)Directions: Write an English composition according to the instructions given below in Chinese.假定你是某外国语学校高三年级2班的学习委员，经常看到有同学抄袭作业，针对这种现象，你将在下周的班会上组织全班同学讨论这一现象，并以―My opinion on copying others‘ homework‖ 为主题作中心发言，请事先用英语写好一篇发言稿。

If was founded in 1919 by Jack Cohen. Tesco stores can be found across all continents. Even though it was set up only for food and beverages, Tesco has drastically branched out , not only in geographical terms, but also in terms of products.Which now include electronics , clothing, health care, home improvement and even financial services.SafewayFounded in the year 1915 by a young M. B, Skaggs. Safeway developed from just a small grocery store on the fundamentals of providing value to customers and narrow profit margins. The success story of Skaggs becomes more evident when , by the end of the year 1926,he he had opened almost 428 stores across ten states. Almost two years later, Safeway was listed at the New York Stock Exchange . At present, there are more than fifteen hundred Safeway stores across US and Canada.The Kroger CompanyFounded at Cincinnati, Ohio in 1883 by Mr. Bernard Kroger, the Kroger Company is now one of the largest supermarket chains not only in the US. but across the world . Over the last couple of decades, the Kroger Company has vastly expanded by acquiring popular brand names, including those of Owen’s Market. Its stores are largely spread out across Middle. Western and Central United States.Reve-GruppeReve – Gruppe was founded in 1927 and is presently headquartered at Cologne, Germany . This supermarket chain is easily counted among the top supermarket chains of the world .

Imagine towers of boxes, all of them filled with broken glass and discarded electronic devices. Technology graveyards like this can be found in communities across the country.Experts say that landfills and warehouses will overflow unless a plan for the disposal (清理)and reuse of electronics is put into place .‖ We can’t put electronics and glass aside and tell ourselves we’ll deal with them later , ‖Laure n Roman , managing director of Transparent Planet said. Roman’s group works to improve the disposal of electronic waste. She says about 660 million pounds of tech trash is produced each year in the U.S.What’s behind the tech trash pile-up ?About ten years ago ,major advances were made in computer and television technology . Manufacturers began producing devices like flat –paneled LCDs and plasma(等离子) screen monitors. These new products provide a clearer image and take up less space than older models. It goes without saying that consumers choose them rather than heavy. Glass-based technologies.The new electronics are built with materials that are difficult to recycle. In addition, the new products have decreased the demand for recycled parts from the older monitors and screens. Older, heavier computer monitors and TVs used glass-based components called CRTs.CRTs have a high lead content and can be environmentally hazardous if not recycled properly . If crushed and put in landfills, the lead from CUTs could seep into groundwater and rivers, harming the water supply. For many years, plants and recycling programs safely processed CRTs. The recycled CRTs were reused in the construction of new monitors.Monitors being made today do not use glass tubes . ―Peo ple are returning old –style TVs with CRTs , but no new ones are being made ,‖ said Linnell. This is creating an imbalance in the amount of glass being disposed of and recycled properly. Many recycling companies have shut down. Others no longer have the resources or space to process these materials. This results in stockpiling.However , experts say there are ways to safely and responsibly address the tech-trash problem.66．What is the main idea of the passage?A．New technology causes trouble for recyclers.B．Experts are trying to solve the tech-trash problem.C．New technology has both advantages and disadvantages.D．CRTs from old computer monitors and TVs harm the earth.67.What Lauren Roman says in Paragraph 2 shows that .A．people attach great importance to electronic wasteB．he has found a new way on how to dispose electronic wasteC．figuring out how to deal with electronic waste is urgent\D．more landfills are needed for storing electronics and glass68．We learn from Paragraph 3 that flat-paneled plasmas and LEDs .A．produce wastes which are less harmfulB．are using heavy , grass-based technologies.C．are very easy for recyclers to recycle for reuseD．are putting heavy, glass-based technologies out lf the market69．W hat does the underlined word ―hazardous‖ in Paragraph 5 most probably mean?A．Risky．B．Helpless．C．Extreme．D．Unnecessary．70．What would the writer probably talk about next?A．Some other problems related to technologies．B．Some experts’ opinions on the tech-trash problem．C．Some reasons why the tech-trash problem is hard to solve．D．Some practicable ways to solve the tech-trash problem．Part 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．Nowadays graduates often face strong competition in the search for jobs．Three stages are often highlighted for them to follow in the process of finding a career recognizing abilities, matching these to jobs available and presenting them well to possible employers．Job seekers have to make a careful assessment of their abilities. One area of assessment should be of their academic qualifications, which include special skills within their subject area. Graduates should also consider their own values and attitudes. An honest assessment of personal interests and abilities such as creative skills, or skills acquired from work experience, should also be given careful thoughtThe second stage is to study the opportunities which are available for employment. To do this, graduates can study job and position information in newspapers, or they can pay a visit to a careers office, write to friends or relatives who may already be involved in a particular profession. After studying all the various options, they should be in a position to make informed comparisons between various careers.Good personal presentation is essential in the search for a good career. Job application forms should be filled in carefully and correctly, without grammar of spelling errors. They should also prepare properly by finding out all they can about the possible employer. When additional information b asked for, job seekers should describe their abilities and work experience in more depth, as well as balance their own abilities with the employer's needs, explain why they are interested in a career with the particular company and try to show that they already know something about the company and its activities. For an interview, they should dress suitably and arrive on time. Interviewees should try to give positive answers and not be afraid of asking questions about anything they are unsure about.If the graduates have ability and are determined, they will be lucky enough to follow an ideal career.Section B (10 marks)Directions Read the following passage. Answer the questions according to the information given in the passage .Not all memories are sweet. Some people spend all their lives trying to forget bad experiences. Violence and traffic accidents can leave people with terrible physical and emotional scars. Often these experiences appear over and over again in nightmares,Now American researchers think they are close to developing a pill. which will help people forget bad memories. The pill is designed to be taken immediately after a frightening experience. They hope it might reduce, or possibly erase, the effect of painful memories.In November. experts tested a drug on people in the US and France. The drug stops the body releasing chemicals that fix memories in the brain. So far the research has suggested that only the emotional effects of memories may be reduced, not that the memories are erased.The research has caused a great deal of argument. Some think it is a bad idea. Those who are against the research say that changing memories is very dangerous. It is known that memories give us our identity and also help us avoid the mistakes of the past. "All of us can think of bad events in our lives that were horrible at the time but make us who we are. I'm not sure we'd want to wipe those memories out," said Rebecca Dresser, a medical ethicist. .Some people also fear that the drug would be abused although the drug should be used only in very serious cases. "People always have the ability to misuse science." said Joseph LeDoux, a New York University memory researcher." All we want to do is help people have better control of memories.However. there are still some supporters. who believe it could lead to pills that prevent or treat soldiers' troubling memories after war. In addition, they say that nowadays there are many people who suffer from terrible memories. "Some memories can ruin people's lives. They comeback to you when you don't want to have them in a daydream or nightmare. They usually come with very painful emotions. "said Roger Pitman, a professor of psychiatry at Harvard Medical School. "This could relieve a lot of that suffering. "81. According to the passage, what experiences often bring people bad memories?

It is just too costly. But the eastern state Maryland has found a way to make such equipment available during some parts of the school year-they put it on a bus!The 13-meter-long Maryland BioLab is a mobile classroom filled with equipment that lets students explore many kinds of science. It travels around the state visiting schools. Today, the bus has stopped at Patapsco High School in the city of Baltimore. Science teacher Leah Warble is very pleased that her students could perform an experiment-using real chemicals. "Today the students are able to do an acid-based hydration (水合作用). Normally, they would do it through simulations on the computer. And now the BioLab allows them to do it in real life, actual time and actually apply it to something that we use in real life."The mobile lab has been bringing bioscience education to schools around Maryland for more than a decade. Scientist Angel Mangus, who is in charge of the mobile laboratory, says that many students finish their experiments and leave the bus excited about the possibility of becoming a scientist. She says their goal is to help create the next generation of scientists.That made a difference to 15-year-old Seda Sinan, who is interested in biology. "It gave me more materials to work with than what I have at school. It' s more interactive." Her classmate Shenara Jefferson agrees, "We students get real-life experience that we do not get in a classroom."Back in the school classroom, Leah Warblers students continue working on the results of their experiments on the bus. "It does help me do my job. " Ms. Warble says children usually do not know what they are interested in until they get real-life experience with a subject. "Well, the excitement of feeling like a real scientist, even just a change in what they are wearing, like wearing goggles (护目镜) and blue glovesmade them feel more like scientists. They are more likely to be involved in the science careers in the future.66. Most American schools do not have the latest laboratory equipment because _____.A. it is unnecessaryB. it is too advancedC. it takes too much moneyD. it takes up too much room '67. We can infer from the passage that the city of Baltimore ___A. belongs to the state of MarylandB. is located in the east of MarylandC. is the capital of the state of MarylandD. is the richest city in the state of Maryland68．What does the underlined word in the second paragraph probably mean?A．Online games．B．Acid-based hydration．C．Not real-life experience．D．Self-learning．69．Why is the Maryland BioLab sep up?A．To make the students live- a more interesting in e．B．To help create the next generation of scientists．C．To make full use of the bus to educate the students．D．To offer the students chances to travel around the city．70．' Which of the following is the main idea of the passage?A．Maryland BioLab helps students to learn more biology．B．A mobile classroom filled with latest equipment arrives．C．Students are able to do an acid-based hydration in labs．D．Maryland BibLab' brings science to local high schools．Part IV Writing （45 marks）Section A （10 marks）Directions: Read the 'following passage．Fill in the．numbered blanks by using the information from the passageWrite NO MORE THAN THREE WORDS for each answer．Peer pressure-is from the members in the group．Because-of it, people-are tempted to do things they might not be comfortable with．It is often seen in ．youth．The．facts about peer pressure point ．out the - challenges that our youngsters face in schools and colleges．The underlying reason for this．is that we all long for the acceptance in a group and hope to be regarded as someone-popular, ．Being lacking, in self-esteem can also influence as when we make a decision.How can we avoid peer pressure?

Early childhood education primarily focuses on learning through playing to develop the child's physical, sensory, communicational and social development．Early childhood education has become a concern of the government, who pushes poor children to be formally trained before they-are old enough for kindergarten．There are good reasons for the government to push early childhood education．Studies have shown that orphaned children who did not receive good care and education become developmentally delayed causing failure in school, and even in life．Further studies show that poor children who take part in Head Start programs are more prepared for school, less likely to end up in Special Education classes, and are less likely to receive public help or g& to jail．There are also negative parts to putting a child in formal education programs too early．Time Magazine online explains that the younger the child the less his chances of catching up with first-grade work．n I have personally witnessed many children of my generation who went to Head Start programs become frustrated and bored with school before they finished high school．Yetpatents have been sure that the earlier the child starts school, the better life he or she will have, so they Dash to start children earlier．Actually while early formal education of poor children does show great gains in the early elementary years, studies also show that this head start is really a "false start", as the gains are lost in middle and high school years．It seems that environment is a bigger factor on life's success than early education．Head programs have not achieved its original goal m dosing the achievement gap in poor and middle school children．Perhaps it is time to find other ways to close that gap．66．The purpose of the government valuing the teary childhood education isA．to develop the children^ communicationB．to give orphaned children good care and educationC．to get the children prepared for the kindergartenD．to train the children formally and regularly67．According to the studies, which of the following is TRUE?A．Children with good early education* may have a good life．B．The orphaned children are usually unhappy in their life．C．Children without early education can do well at school．D．Head Start programs are helpful to the poor children．68．"．．．the younger the child the less his chances of catching up with first-grade work．" suggests that_____．A．the early childhood educ ation is helpless to the child’s gradeB．it is good for the young children to receive early educationC．the early education can help the children follow the gradeD．the younger the children are, the more clever they will be69．The authors attitude toward the early childhood education is_____．A．subjective B．objective C．disapproving D．approving 70．The main idea of the last paragraph is that_____．A．the early childhood education is very necessaryB．Head Start programs have helped the children a lotC．environment is the most important to lifers successD．better ways should be found to help the poor childrenPart ]V Writing（45 marks）Section A（10 marks）Directions"．Read the following passage．Fill in the numbered blanks by using the information from thepassage．Write NO MORE THAN THREE WORDS for each answer．A gap year （also known as year abroad, year out, year off, deferred year, bridging year, time off and tune out）is a year during which students take time off and do something other than schooling, such as travel or work．The gap year is most commonly taken after secondary school and before starting university．The practice of taking a gap year developed in the United Kingdom in the 1960s．During a gap year, a student might travel, do voluntary work overseas or undertake a working holiday abroad．In 1978, the Prince of Wales and Colonel John Blashford-Snell beam what is now known asRaleigh International by launching ' Operation Drake", a gap year expedition voyage around the world following Sir Francis Drake's route．The Center for Interim Programs in the United States was originally founded in 1980 to assist students in making a more effective transition from high school to college．The gap year has grown very popular among students in the UK, Australia, New Zealand and Canada．A trend for gap years is to participate in educational programs that combine language study, home stay, cultural immersion, community ．service, and independent study．The high pressure increasingly leaves students of high school tired out and longing for refreshment．Also, counselors are coming to bless the gap-year option, and colleges increasingly are offering a delayed enrol lment option as more and more “ga pers" arrive on campus with enhanced motivation and maturity-all of which prepares well for their undergraduate years in college．In 2010, gap year travel has increased among school, college and university leavers, as this is seen as an attractive option for future career development．Section B（10 marks）Directions Read the following passage．Answer the questions according to the information given in the passage．Bard itch High School decided to have an All-School Reunion．Over 450 people came to the event．There were tours of the old school building and a picnic at Confederate Park．Several former teachers were to tell stories about the old days, including Ms．Mabel Yates, ．an English teacher for fifty years．Some eyes rolled and there were a few low groans （嘟囔声）when Ms．Yates was about tospeak．Many started looking at their watches and coming up with excuses to be anywhere instead of preparing to listen to a lecture from an old woman who had few kind words for her students while teaching．Then Ms．Yates started to speak:"I can't tell you how pleased I am to be here．I haven’t seen many of you since your graduation, but I have followed your careers arid enjoyed your victories as well as crying for your tragedies．I have a large collection of newspaper photographs of my students; Although I haven’t appeared in person, I have attended your college graduations* weddings and even the births of your children, in my imagination．"Ms．Yates paused and started crying a bit．Then she continued:"There is no greater comfort for an educator than to see the end result of his or her years of work．You have all been a great source of pleasure and pride for me and I want you to know I love you all from the bottom of my heart．"There was a silence over the crowd for a few seconds and then someone started clapping; The clapping turned into cheering, then into a deafening roar

trapped in ice．First 41 coated the decks, the poles and the rope．Then water froze around the rudders （舵） , and the ships became 42 in the frozen sea desperately．Sailors set out to search for help, but soon 43 to severe Arctic weather and died of exposure to its harsh winds and low temperatures．For the next twenty years, 44 of the expedition were found all over the frozen landscape．Dillard reports that on a voyage that was to last 2-3 years the crew did not prepare for the chance of the ships being ice-locked and the captain 45 just a 12-day supply of coal for the spare steam engines．Historians may doubt the wisdom of such a journey．But I have a question: Are we, too, prepared for the important voyage we've started-the journey we- call 46 ”?I want to be as ready as possible for what may lie ahead．As long as we are alive, our journey is not over．And in large part, the success of our journey will be 47 by our regular and systematic preparation．36．A．continued B．returned C．existed D．survived

A. determined B. damaged C. defeated D. decoratedSection C（12 marks）Directions: Complete the following passage by filling in each black with one word that best fits the context．Nearly all of us have dreamed about winning the big prize in a lottery（彩票） We dream about 48 we would do with the money, but we 49 stop to think about how the money would change us．For most of us, our way of life is closely linked 50 our economic circumstances．The different parts of our lives fit together like a jigsaw（拼板）- work, home, friends, hobbies and sports make up our world． 51 sudden fortune would change it all and break the jigsaw．For example , some people like the idea of 52 having to work, but winners have found that without work there is no reason to get up in the morning．In seems great to move to a bigger house in a wealthy area, 53 if you do that, you leave old friends behind．Usually, though winners are advised not to publicize _ 54 _ addresses and phone numbers, begging letters still arrive． 55 they are not careful, most of their money will be spent on the protection of their possessions．Art Ⅲ Reading Comprehension（30 marks）Directions: 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 according to the information given in passage．AMy son drew a smiley face underneath the day of the family calendar．A1l I could manage was a weak smile and an acceptance of the unavoidable event．While he was counting down the days until he left home, I still felt sad and unwi11ing to accept the situation．For 18 years, we had prepared for this moment．But there's still some anxiety in every parent“ was he really ready ?” The boy—man was on his way to becoming a man—boy．A few days later,1 walked in his room and felt it was an empty area of oxygen．Then I looked around and laughed．My missing scissors Just lay on the ground．Sadly, a single sock hung over the chair like a flag．An old and torn Michael Jordan poster hung on the wall．When looking through the possessions he left behind, I found Fred, his teddybear ,which made the tonsillectomy （扁桃体切除术）seem a little less painful forhim．He had marched into the hospital, holding the teddy bear tightly with great determination．And then there were loads of books, like the star wars series, which had fueled his young mind and actually helped motivate his ambitions．Now, he was off to serve his nation．I also remember him sticking his arms out like wings on my shoulders, making sounds like a pilot．He was five then．Who knew he would be a new soldier of theAir National Guard?For a while l wonder if this is a lifetime transition（转变）．when l was a girl baby, I needed my parents for everything．Then I turned into foolish independence and5learned the meaning of “no and“don't put that in your mouth”．Each year I grewa little more independent，finding myself on my own．But in my eyes my son is forever a kid．I never made much money, and I never really cared if my boy did either．I hope that he will face the challenges in his life bravely, tolerate the frustration and never forget that this is his home．56．What impressed the author most when she entered her son's room?A．The unpleasant Smell．B．The complete emptiness．C．The superstar's poster．D．The lost scissors．57．Which of the following about Fred, the teddy bear is right?A．It was the boy's favorite toy．B．It motivated the boy's ambition．C．It showed that the boy didn't lack sense of security．D．It gave the boy encouragement before the operation．58．The author wrote the fifth paragraph____．A．to indicate her son's dream came trueB．to show her son had various hobbiesC．to explain things always went as plannedD．to stress

painful．B．The author's delight and unwillingness of her son-s growing up．C．Children's unwillingness to accept their growing up．D．The author-s ignorance of her son's growing up．BCollege visits are important．Before you commit years of your life and money to a school, be sure you're choosing a place, that is a good match for your personality and interests．You can-t get theeel' of a school from any guidebook, so be sureto visit the campus．Below are a few tips for getting the most out of your college visit．1．Explore on Your ownOf course you should take the official campus tour, but be sure to allow time to hang around on your own． The trained tour guides will show you a school's selling points．But the o1dest and prettiest buildings don't give you the entire plcture6of a college．Try to walk the extra mile and get the complete picture of the campus．2．Read the Bulletin BoardsWhen you visit the student center, academic buildings and residence halls．take a few minutes to read the bulletin boards．They provide an easy way to see what's happening on campus．The ads for lectures, clubs and plays can tell you what's going on outside the classrooms．3．Eat in the Dining HallYou can get a good feel for student life by eating in the dining hall．Try to sit with students if you can．Do the students seem happy or stressed? Also, is the food good? Are there adequate healthy options? Many admission offices will give prospective students coupons（优惠券）for free meals in the dining halls．4． Visit a Class in Your MajorIf you know what you want to study, a class visit makes a lot of sense．You'll get to observe other students in your field and see how involved they are in classroom discussion．Try to stay after class for a few minutes and chat with the studentsto get their impressions of their professors and major．Be sure to call in advance to schedule a classroom visit—most colleges don't allow visitors to drop in on class unannounced．5．Talk to Lots of StudentsYour campus tour guide has been trained to market the sch001．Try to talk to students who aren't getting paid to impress you．These important conversations can often provide you with information about c01lege life that isn't part of the admission script．Few university officials wi11 tell you if their students spend all weekend drinking of studying, but a group of random students might.For more tips，please go to collegeapps．about．com．61. The best way to know about a college in an official campus t伽r is____．A．to walk around the campus aloneB．to take pictures of the campusC．to Visit the oldest and prettiest buildingsD．to hire a tour guide62．Reading the bulletin boards can help youA．decide the major you want to studyB．find out the after-class activities on campusC．get free coupons from the admission officesD．find out the options of healthy food63．If you plan to attend a class on campus,A．drop in on a class in your majorB．have talks with the students in the classC． make an appointment in advanceD．ask how the students like their teachers and majors64． To get a real idea of the college during a visit, it's best to talk toA．famous professors B．campus tour guidesC．admission officers D．random students65．Where does the passage probably come from?7A．A news report．B．A tourist poster．C．An educational journal．D．A geographical magazine．CWikipedia is an online encyclopedia（百科全书）．This name is a combination of“wiki and “湥祣汣灯摥慩． Wiki is the Hawaiian word for quick． Wiki websites are designed to enable users to make addition or edit any page Of the site．Wikipedia has been accused of exhibiting systemic prejudice and mistakes．Critics argue that Wikipedia's open nature and a lack of proper sources for much of the information makes it unreliable,Mention Wikipedia within the walls of academy and you'll find no shortage of opinions．That-s no surprise．Can an online encyclopedia that is edited by anyone be trusted as a credible information source? Should students be encouraged to use this tool? And is it even possible to discourage its users?To find out, we performed a simple experiment．We selected 100 terms from the U．S．history textbooks, We chose a mix of items that students might be asked to research for a test or paper and we entered each item into Google to find out which websites the search engine suggests as the most useful links． The results are shocking． Google listed Wikipedia as the number one: 87 times out of 100．Several conclusions can be drawn from this finding． First, people searching for information about these historical terms are finding the entries from Wikipedia helpful．Second, 6'banning the use of Wikipedia appears hopelesslysimple-minded．Jimmy Wales, one of Wikipedia's founders, told the New York Times, 呜敨?業桧?獡眠汥?畳杧獥?潮?楬瑳湥湩?潴爠捯?…潲汬攠瑩敨屲．To our untrained eyes, the information from Wikipedia appeared just as reliable．The reason why the content is mostly reliable is probably that these terms are rather mainstream．The high-school level content is less likely to be wrong than the subjects studied in graduate schools． So when primary and secondary students are researching history, Wikipedia is still a proper place to start．66．Which of the following can best describe Wikipedia?A．Wikipedia is from the Hawaiian language with the meaning of prejudice andmistakes．B．Wikepedia is an online encyclopedia edited freely．C．Wikipedia is an encyclopedia under public attack．D． Wikipedia isa t60l for enjoying rock & roll．67．What does it in the second paragraph refer to?A．Wikipedia's open nature．B．Wikipedia's lack of proper sources．C．WikipediaD．Information on the Internet．68．From the underlined sentence we can conclude that ．A．Wikipedia serves only primary and secondary students8B．people are always ready to find faults with othersC．Wikipedia has a range of topics and is rich in knowledgeD．people hold different opinions about Wikipedia69． What does the writer imply in the last paragraph?` A． Wikipedia can be useful in certain aspects．B．Students should be discouraged from using Wikipedia．C．The information from Wikipedia is totally reliable．D．Wikipedia cannot be trusted at all．70．What could be the best title for the passage?A．Wikipedia-a perfect encyclopediaB．Wikipedia-a misleading encyclopediaC．Wikipedia-a paper encyclopediaD．Wikipedia-a helpful online encyclopediaPartⅣ 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．In recent years, Smart Grid Technology is being promoted by many countries．It means the application of a digital system to the electricity network．Smart Grid Technology aims to provide the electricity industry with a better understanding of power generation and demand, and use the information to create a more efficient power network．The digital system can be used for companies to collect information about 'supply arid demand and improve engineers' ability to manage the system．With better information about the electricity demand, the network will be able to increase the amount of electricity delivered per unit generated, leading to potential decreases in fuel needs and carbon emission（排放）．Moreover, the digital system will assist in reducing maintenance costs．Smart Grid Technology offers benefits to consumers too．Through Smart meter, the equipment used by consumers to record power use in real time, the technology makesit possible to charge differently the appliances（电器）used at different times．Therefore, consumers may use their appliances, for example, washing machines at night．Smart meters can also be connected to the Internet or the telephone system, making it more convenient for consumers to switch appliances on or off when they are out．With these changes comes a range of challenges．The first involves managing the supply and demand．Sources of renewable energy, such as wind, wave and solar, are unpredictable．With alternative sources, this is far more difficult, and may lead to the failure of the system．A second problem is the fact that many renewable power generation sources are located in remote areas, such as windy uplands and coastal regions, which lack electrical infrastructure．Therefore, it is necessary to build new infrastructure there．Although Smart Grid Technology is still in its early years, people believe that9by the year 2050, changes in the energy supply will have transformed our homes, our roads and our behavior．Isn't it a bright future?Section B（10 marks）Directions: Read the following passage．Aaswer the questions according to the information given in the passage．Several years ago, I had to replace a receptionist for my unit． Before I advertised for the position,1 was approached by another manager, my wife's friend, and askedif l would consider a transfer from his staff．It appeared from his description of this employee, Maria, that she was having a lot of problems performing her duties, had difficulties with her boss, and did not appear to respond to any attempts her boss had made to settle the issues．Now, after listening to his explanation, I really had severe doubts． What crossed my mind, after this discussion, was that he wanted me to take a problem off his hands．I told him l would think about it and would let him know the next day．After thinking more about this potential performance issue, I decided that l would agree to speak with Maria privately before I made any decision．And, what I found out during this interview left me deep in thought．As it turned out, the performance issue appeared to result from working for a boss who never encouraged his employees, and was constantly changing the workload and routines．The end result was a totally ruined employee who was unconfident and hated to see a new workday start．I decided to accept her transfer to my unit． What started out as a shy, withdrawn10and frightened employee turned out to be one of the most productive and loyal employees that I had ever worked with．Maria couldn't do enough and was constantlyasking for more responsibility．I was more than happy to give her what sheneeded-praise for work well done, respect as a person, and encouragement for doing well in anything she dealt with．Sometimes, we are guilty of holding others back from accomplishing or doing or developing as they should or could． It may be a wise idea that we all look in the mirror, from time to time, to see what we are really like．81．According to the first paragraph, why did the author plan to advertise?（No more than 8 words）（2 marks）To replace a receptionist for his unit．/He wanted a new receptionist．82．How did the author get to know about Maria after hearing her boss's description of her? （No more than 11 words）（2 marks）By speaking with her privately before he made any decision．／He spoke with her privately before he made any decision．83．In Maria's eyes, how did her former boss treat his employees? （No more than14 words）（3 marks）He never encouraged his employees and was constantly changing the workload and routines．84．What reaction did the author have towards Maria's good performances in her new unit? （No more than 8 words）（3 marks）He praised, respected and encouraged her．/ He gave her praise, respect and encouragement．Section C (25 marks )Directions : Write an English composition according to the

I ran into my parents’ room to find Dad. When I saw him on the phone, he was crying. I’d never seen my dad cry before. My heart 39 . what possibly could have happened?“Max, I’m so sorry,” I heard him say. That’s when it 40 me. I knew that Suzie had died. Max has been my dad’s best friend for years. Suzie, his daughter, had a rare disease that mainly affected her body. Her brain was OK. She knew what was 41 ; she knew that she had problems and was different from other kids.

Caffeine can improve memory among honeybees and lead to better pollination(授粉). According to a recent study published in the journal Science.The study was conducted by a team of researchers at Newcastle University in the United Kingdom. They found that the nectar(花蜜) of some flowers, such as those from grapefruit and lemon plants, as well as certain coffee flowers, contains low doses of caffeine. To get bees to feed on these flowers, the team trained the insects to associate food with the smell of the flowers. They also trained another group of bees to feed on nectar from flowers that were sweetened with a sugar, but did not contain caffeine. After 24 hours, the bees trained on caffeinated flowers returned to these plants three times as often as those trained on the sweetened flowers returned to the uncaffeinated plants.Professor Geraldine Wright led the researchers. “Remembering floral traits (花部特征) is difficult for bees to perform at a fast pace as they fly from flower to flower and we found that caffeine helps the bee remember where the flowers are,” Wright said in a statement.Improved memory led to the better pollination. That’s because once bees sip the caffeine nectar, they continue to look for more coffee plants to pollinate. This also suggests that caffeine plays a role in improving the bees’ ability to search for food.Researchers found that caffeine’s effect on the bee brain is similar to its effect on mammals. “The change is similar to that produced by caffeine in neurons (神经元)”associated with learning and memory in the rat brain,” Wright said.Bee populations have declining since 2007. The dramatic drop in the insects’ numbers has serious effects for ecosystems and the farming industry. Bees are needed in the reproduction of crops and spreading wild flower species. Understanding what keeps bees buzzing could help to make sure that the insects are able to remember and pollinate their favorite flowers.56. Which of the following is mentioned in the passage?A. Caffeine has no effect on the rat brain.B. Bee population has been increasing.C. The nectar of lemon plants contains caffeine.D. Bees dislike nectar from sweetened flowers.57. After reading the passage, John, who works in the farming industry, will probably feel ________.A. annoyedB. angryC. nervousD. excited58. Which of the following relationship is correct according to the passage?A. improved memory — caffeine nectar — better pollinationB. caffeine nectar — improved memory — better pollinationC. improved memory — better pollination — caffeine nectarD. caffeine nectar — better pollination — improved memory59. We can know from the passage that ________.A. the rat is a mammalB. caffeine has nothing to do with memoryC. bees are good at remembering floral traitsD. Geraldine Wright did the research on his own60. What section of a newspaper may this passage be taken from?A. ScienceB. EducationC. CultureD. SportsBIf you’re thinking about reaching for another b iscuit to get you through the working day, think again. Eating unhealthy snacks at your desk makes you pile on almost half a stone a year, a survey has revealed. The waistlines of women suffer the most, with the average female putting on 6lb 3oz – the equivalent of a whole dress size – while men see their weight increase by 5lb 2oz.The report into our eating habits found that, on average, we eat at least two snacks a day, with 30 per cent of us tucking into three or more. Women admit eating more than men, with a further 13 per cent of ladies scoffing four or more snacks a day. The research, by The Village Bakery, found biscuits are the most common vice, with 42 per cent regularly opening a pack, closely followed by chocolate (38 per cent), crisps (32 per cent) and cakes (13 per cent).And office workers are worse than most. Cakes and biscuits brought into work by colleagues are one of the main temptations office staff give in to. In addition, 33 per cent admit reaching for nibbles to cope with stress and 22 per cent say they need a sugar rush to perk them up in the afternoon.Simon Staddon, of The Village Bakery, said: “We were aware time-poor office workers can find it difficult to easily access a nutritional lunch. But we were really shocked by the extent t o which ‘quick fix' lunches are affecting weight gain and general wellbeing. Popular mid-afternoon pick-me-ups such biscuits, chocolate and cakes are high in calories, fat and full of sugar, all of which affect your blood sugar levels and ultimately lead t o weight gain.”The survey of 2,000 British men and women suggests we are often ashamed of our unhealthy eating. Twenty-four per cent of Britons admit lying about how many snacks they eat with 33 per cent of women lying, compared to 20 per cent of men.

Some children reach eagerly for the treat they see. Some last a few minutes before they give in. But others are determined to wait until the last moment.By the time the children reach high school, something remarkable has happened. A survey found that those who as four-year-olds had enough self-control to hold out generally grew up to be more popular, adventurous, confident and dependable. The children who gave in to temptation(诱惑) early were more likely to be lonely, easily frustrated and inflexible(顽固的)．Actually, the ability to delay reward is a sign of emotional intelligence which doesn't show up on an IQ test.The hardware of the brain and the software of the mind have long been scientists' concerns. But brain theory can't explain what we wonder about most, like the question why some people remain upbeat in the face of troubles that would sink a less resistant soul.Here comes the theory of Daniel Goleman, writer of Emotional Intelligence: when it comes to predicting people's success, brain ability measured by IQ may actually matter less than the qualities of mind once thought of as “character”．EQ is not the opposite of IQ. What researchers have been trying to understand is how they work together; how one's ability to handle stress, for instance, affects the ability to concentrate and put intelligence to use. Among the ingredients (要素) for success, researchers now generally agree that IQ counts for about 20%; the rest depends on everything from social class to luck.While many researchers in this relatively new field are glad to see emotional issues finally taken seriously, some few fear EQ causes misuse.66. The experiment with the four-year-olds makes it clear that ________.A. the age of 4 is a proper time for scientific experimentB. emotional intelligence won't show up until adolescenceC. the ability of self-control plays a role in personal successD. candy can be used to measure a person's emotional intelligence67. Which of the following is TRUE of EQ and IQ according to the text?A. There is no link between EQ and IQ.B. The higher a person's IQ is, the higher his or her EQ is.C. Some people can be blessed with lots of both, but some with little of either.D. Scientists are trying to discover the way in which EQ and IQ work together.68. The underlined word “upbeat” in Paragraph 4 probably means “________”.A. kindB. floatingC. excitedD. optimistic69. Why does the author mention the experiment at the beginning of the text?A. To amuse both the children and readers.B. To prove the scientist’s wisdom.C. To introduce the topic of the text.D. To show us how to do an IQ test.70. What is most likely to be written in the paragraph that follows?A. Information about famous people with high EQ.B. Examples showing the opposite voice about EQ.C. Some reasons why EQ is relatively new field.D. Strong demands for basic emotional education.Part IV Writing （45 marks）Section A （10 marks）Directions: Read the following passage．Fill in the numbered blanks by using theinformation from the passage.Write NO MORE THAN THREE WORDS for each answer.The X- Factor (英国偶像), Britain's got talent（英国达人）, American Idol（美国偶像）and Super girl, TV talent shows are popular all over the world.There are many reasons for that. To start with, the show can make the contestant(选手) famous overnight. Susa n Boyle was an ordinary English woman before she appeared on Britain’s Got talent, in which she sang “I Dreamed a Dream”. The video clip (片段) of her performance was viewed more than 50 million times within a few weeks. Second, the show offers a good opport unity to display one’s talents. Third, everybody has a fair chance to be involved in the show regardless of the age and background. Even if you can’t perform in the show, you can vote for your favorite contestant through cell phones and the Internet. Fourth, the fun and humorous style also appeals to young people. Last but not least, the modern media such as TV and the Internet contributes greatly to its rapid popularity.However, many people express concerns about TV talent shows. They argue that the TV talent show misleads the young people and makes them believe that they can become famous overnight. Some think the show only creates entertainers rather than artists, because many winners have little idea about real music and acting. What’s worse, some judge s even humiliate (羞辱) and laugh at contestants. One contestant from American Idol committed suicide because she couldn’t stand the rejection and humiliation. Even the winners suffer. Susan Boyle suffered a nervous breakdown soon after the show, because she was unable to deal with the pressure.Many countries have realized the problems and taken some steps to regulate the show. The UK requires that contestants younger than 16 not be allowed to participate. China bans TV talent shows to be broadcastSection B （in the passage.Generosity and kindness does not mean that you give only when you have a lot or after fulfilling all your needs, but in fact you can still give when you yourself are struggling. Generosity literally means willingness and liberty in giving away one’s own money, time, talent, etc. since rely without any personal gain as shown in the following story.Mahatma Gandhi went from city to city, village to village collecting funds for the Charkha Sangh. During one of his tours he addressed a meeting in Orissa. After his speech a poor old lady got up. She was gone with age, her hair was grey and her clothes were in rags. The volunteers tried to stop her, but she fought her way to the place where Mahatma Gandhi was sitting.“I must see him,” she insisted. She went up to Mahatma Gandhi and touched hi s feet. Then from the folds of her sari(卷布), she brought out a copper coin and placed it at his feet. Mahatma Gandhi picked up the copper coin and put it away carefully. The Charkha Sangh funds were under the charge of Jamnalal Bajaj. He asked Mahatma Gandhi for the coin but Mahatma Gandhi refused.“I keep cheques worth thousands of rupees (卢比) for the Charkha Sangh,” Jamnalal Bajaj said laughingly, “yet you won’t trust me with a copper coin.” “This copper coin is worth much more than those thousands,” Maha tma Gandhi said. “If a man has one hundred thousand rupees and he gives away a thousand or two, it doesn’t mean much.” “But this coin was perhaps all that the poor lady possessed. She gave me all she had. That was very generous of her. What a great sacrifice she made. That is why I value this copper coin more than ten millions of rupees.”81.

You don ’t show your secret personality when you ’re awake because youcan control your behavior, but when you ’re asleep, your sleeping position shows the real you.In a normal night, of course, people frequently change their position. The important position is the one that you go to sleep in.If you go to sleep on your back, you’re a very open person. You normally trust people and you are easily influenced by fashion or new ideas. You don’tlike to upset people, so you never express your real feelings. You ’re quite shy and you aren ’tvery confident.If you sleep on your stomach, you are a rather secretive(不爽快的)person. You worry a lot and you ’re always easily upset. You ’re very stubborn( 固执的 ), but you aren ’tvery ambitious. You ’re usually live for today not for tomorrow. This means that you enjoy having a good time.If you sleep curled up (卷曲 ),you are probably a very nervous person. You have a low opinion of yourself and so you’re often defensive. You ’re shy and you don’t normally like meeting people. You prefer to be on your own. You’re easily hurt.If you sleep on your side, you have usually got a well-balanced personality. You know your strengths and weaknesses. You ’re usually careful. You have a confident personality. You sometimes feel anxious, but you don ’toften get depressed. You always say what you think even if it annoys people.56.

He or she wouldn ’tlike to get help from you.60.

He spent nearly two months building his“ egg house” in his hometown, a village in southeast Hunan that is around 1,700 kilometers from Beijing.61. Where is this passage probably taken from?A.

He once rented a room.65.What’s the writer ’s attitude?A. Supporting.B. Puzzled.C. Criticizing.D.

We had to hope he hung on .”He did.“ The doctors were there 24 hours a day and they stopped the bleeding. They brought him back,” Mrs. Smart said. “ I certainly believe in miracles because I ’ve seen one happen, butit wouldn ’thave happened if the doctors didn ’tdo what they did. ”It was the second time Mrs. Smart thought she was losing her husband of 54 years. Two years ago, Mr. Smart was admitted to the Launceston General Hospital after a heart attack and a few days later with Hospital after a heart attack and a few days later with intense pain caused by a hemorrhage (出血 ) .Again, the family was called to say goodbye---twice.“ I was given a 50-50 chance of coming out of it, ” Mr. Smart said.Going through the ordeal( 磨难，摧残 ) then was trying on the family, who had prepared themselves for the worst.

Answer the questions according to the information given in the passage and required words limit. Write your answers on your answer sheet.When most people travel, they spend some time booking hotel rooms. However, my friend Ashley and I were not like most people many years ago. We decided that backpacking through Ireland would be more fun if we“winged it”.Winging it, of course, meant that we’d each buy a one-way ticket to Dublin, and give ourselves ten days to get back to Bath, England, where we were enrolled in a study-abroad program. The plan was to visit Dublin, Galway, Cong, and finally end things in Belfast, where we figured we could catch a flight back to England.Unfortunately, Ireland had other plans for us, as nothing worked out the way in which we thought it would. After getting stuck in Galway and Cong for about seven days, we finally managed to take a bus trip from Cong to Belfast. The twelve-hour bus ride started at ten in the morning, which meant that we ’d arrive in the heart of Belfast at around ten at night. Of course, like all transport, the bus ran late, and we ended up in Belfast at around eleven-thirty at night. As there were a ton of hotels around the area where it dropped us off, we weren ’ttoo worried about finding a hotel room. But hotel after hotel turned us down.After the third hotel turned us down and the fourth one was locked up for the night, Ashley and I started to realize that we had to spend a long night sleeping on a city bench. Like militant soldiers, we slept in turn as we were worried we would get robbed. The system worked,as we were able to stay safe while catching as much sleep as we could on the bench.From this experience, I really learnt a good lesson.86.Why did the author and his friend decide to wing it when they went to travel in Ireland?(No more than 8 words)87.What did the author and his friend do in Bath, England?
