AMaster painter Zhang Daqian (1899-1983) was well known forhaving a large number of friends and students. Among them, painter Li Qiujun was special.They got to know each other through Li's elder brother, who was one of Zhang's best friends.They admired each other's artistic talent and became confidants, which resulted in a romantic relationship.In 1948, Zhang produced Spring Clouds Amid Autumn Landscape, a mountain-and-water ink painting featuring gongbi (meticulous brushwork), as a gift for Li's 50th birthday.A year later, Zhang permanently departed from the mainland, and traveled and exhibited around the world before settling down in Taipeiin 1976.After leaving the mainland, he often said that he missed Li, who died in Shanghai in 1973.Spring Clouds Amid Autumn Landscape will be auctioned in Hong Kong on Oct 4.The painting not only marks a friendship between the two painters, but it deserves special attention because it shows Zhang atthe top of his game as he sought to master the mountain-and-water style, according to C.K. Cheung, head of Sotheby's Chinese painting department.Sotheby's will auction the work at its major autumn sale, which runs from Oct 1 to 5.Cheung says the painting's composition and Zhang's attention to details reflect his incorporation of traditional touches, especiallyfrom Song Dynasty (960-1279) paintings, while also developing his own style.21. The underlined word “confidants” in paragraph 3 probably means ____.A. enemiesB. collegesC. friendsD. painters22. How old was Li Qiujun when she died?A. 50B. 75C. 78D. 8423. According to the passage, which of the following is NOT true?A. Spring Clouds Amid Autumn Landscape was originally a gift for Li's 50th birthday.B. Zhang Daqian permanently departed from the mainland in 1949.C. Sotheby's will auction Spring Clouds Amid Autumn Landscape in Hong Kong.D. Li Qiujun's elder brother was also one of ZhangDaqian's students.BA new international study shows that some people's biological clock plays a powerful role for their life expectancy, regardless of lifestyle choices.Published in the latest issue of Aging on Wednesday, the study has found the most definitive evidence to explain why some people keep healthy lifestyle but die younger than others.Geneticist Steve Horvath from the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA), led a team of 65 scientists around the world to record age-related changes to human DNA, analyse blood samples collected from 13,000 people and estimate their lifespan.A higher biological age, regardless of actual age, consistently predicts an earlier death, the study says."You get people who are vegan, sleep 10 hours a day, have a low-stress job, and still end up dying young," Horvath said in a statement. "We have shown some people have a faster innate aging rate."The findings discovered that 5 percent of the population ages at a faster biological rate, which translated to a roughly 50 percent higher than average risk of death at any age."The great hope is that we find anti-aging interventions that would slow your innate aging rate," Horvath said, adding that "this is an important milestone to realizing this dream."24. Some people keep healthy lifestyle but die younger than others because ______.A. their biological clock is not powerful enoughB. the most definitive evidence has been foundC. they have a higher actual age than othersD. they ages at a relatively faster biological rate25. How was the study conducted?A. By collecting and analyzing dataB. By interviewing lots of peopleC. By researching previous studiesD. By studying different lifestyles26. According to the study, it can be inferred that ______.A. people who keep healthy lifestyle tend to live longerB. people’s lifespan can be predicted by their ageC. 5 percent of people are believed to have a faster innate aging rateD. anti-aging interventions have proved to slow the innate aging rate27. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?A. We all should keep healthy lifestyleB. Geneticist finds anti-aging interventionsC. Biological clock predicts life expectancyD. Horvath builds an important milestoneCAs a Chinese saying goes, “Taste is actually a memory of childhood”. Local specialty food may not be popular among all people, but it offers outsiders a glimpse of local culture and history.Gongcheng “oil tea” is such a kind of food that would be considered “weird” by many first-time visitors to the remote county in the north of the Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region. Many people dislike its bitter and astringent(涩的) flavor when they take a sip.“It felt like drinking Chinese herbal medicine. I never expected that I would gradually accept it afterwards, and even become addicted to it,” said a traveler surnamed Zhang who comes from Shijiazhuang in northern China’s Hebei province.Langshan vil lage is said to be the birthplace of Gongcheng “oil tea” whose ideal ingredients are green tea and fermented tea. The village has preserved well its buildings and roads dating back to late Qing Dynasty (1644-1911), as well as its traditional way of making the special tea.Lin Fengyou, 60, introduced the cooking process. She looks younger than her age, and attributes this to the benefits of drinking “oil tea” throughout the year.The first procedure is to use a wooden hammer to pound the tea while heating it in an iron pot, and then add edible oil and boiled water afterwards. She filters off the solid residues(余渣), and pours the glue-like green tea soup into bowls. Then, she adds salt, caraway seed, green onion, dried rice, fried groundnuts, sliced taro and fried beans.The taste of the “oil tea” is a mixture of the distinctive flavors of all its ingredients. Local people usually eat it togetherwith glutinous rice(糯米) balls, rice dumplings and glutinous rice cake.The villagers consume “oil tea” three times a day. The tea soup is a healthy and refreshing food. “The tea soup to us is coffee to Westerners”, said Lin. “But it is tastier.”28. Many first-time visitors may find “oil tea” ______ when taking a sip.A. popularB. strangeC. addictedD. beneficial29. What can we learn about Lin Fengyou according to the passage?A. She never expected that she would gradually accept “oil tea”.B. She is one of the reasons why the special tea has been preserved.C. She thinks drinking “oil tea” through out the year makes her look younger.D. She drinks “oil tea” three times every day and considers coffee tastier.30. Which is the correct order of cooking “oil tea” according to Lin Fengyou?a. pour the glue-like green tea soup into bowlsb. heat the tea in an iron pot and pound the teac. add salt, caraway seed, green onion, dried rice, etcd. add edible oil and boiled watere. filter off the solid residuesA. bdeacB. dbaceC. acebdD. beadc31. Which column is this passage probably taken from?A. Culture & EducationB. EntertainmentC. HealthD. TravelDChina's largest search engine Baidu has said it will make its latest artificial intelligence (AI) technology accessible to developers and businesses as part of the company's latest move into AI, big data and cloud computing.AI solution "Tianzhi" was launched at a cloud-computing summit held in Beijing Wednesday. It includes services in three fields: sensing technology, such as image and voice processing, machine learning, and deep learning, an advanced form of machine learning, said Zhang Yaqin, CEO of the Nasdaq-listed company, at the summit.Developers can access facial or voice recognition, algorithms(演算法) for data analysis and projections, and deep learning applications, Zhang said, adding that the technology could help users innovate intheir sectors."With more devices connected to the cloud, enterprises will use cloud computing and AI more frequently," said Wu Hequan, an academician at the Chinese Academy of Engineering, "Open AI technology can play a bigger role."The company also revealed a plan to invest 10 billion yuan (1.45 billion U.S. dollars) in cloud computing in the next five years and establish an innovation center, which will serve 10 million enterprises.32.

As an inexperienced teacher, I tried every means to get them to be 36 , but in vain. my panic was rising and I could feel my heartbeating wildly. This was the 37 of my job as a music teacher, I thought -- teaching was not for me. Then I had an idea. Hoping that no one would notice that I was 38 inside, I threw my voice as far as it would reach: "Put your heads on the desks and close your 39 ! We are going on a journey."40 , the children fell silent. "Now what should I do?" I thought to myself. Reaching over to my collection of CDs, I blindly 41 , put it in the machine and played it.Obediently (顺从地), my class lay their heads on their desk, closed their eyes and 42 .

Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished .statements For each of them there are four chokes marked A. B. C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage.AForget Cyclists, Pedestrians are Real DangerWe are having a debate about this topic. Here are some letters from our readers.■Yes, many cyclists behave dangerously. Many drivers are disrespectful of cyclists. But pedestrians are probably the worse offenders.People of all ages happily walk along the pavement with eyes and hands glued to the mobile phone, quite unaware of what is going on around them. They may even do the same thing while crossing a road at a pedestrian crossing or elsewhere. The rest of us have to evade (避让) them or just stand still to wait for the unavoidable collision.The real problem is that some pedestrians seem to be, at least for the moment, in worlds of their own that are, to them, much more important than the welfare of others.——Michael Horan■I love the letter from Bob Brooks about cyclists (Viewpoints, May 29). I am afraid they seem to think they own the roads.I was walking across Altrincham Road one morning when a cyclist went round me and on being asked what he was doing he shouted at me.The government built a cycle lane on the road but it is hardly used.The police do nothing. What a laugh they are!The cyclists should all have to be made to use the cycle lanes and wear helmets, fluorescent (发荧光的) jacket and lights at night and in the morning they should pay some sort of tax and be fined for not wearing them.——Carol Harvey■Cyclists jump on and off pavements (which are meant for pedestrians), ride at speed along the pavements, and think they have a special right to go through traffic lights when they are on red.I was almost knocked down recently by a cyclist riding on the pavement when there was a cycle lane right next to him.Other road users, including horse riders, manage to obey the rules so why not cyclists?It's about time they had to be registered and insured, so when they do hit a pedestrian or a vehicle, or cause an accident, at least they can be treated and there might be an opportunity to claim.——JMLWrite to Viewpoints of the newspaper.56. Michael Horan wrote the letter mainly to show that _______.A. drivers should be polite to cyclistsB. road accidents can actually be avoidedC. sine pedestrians are a threat to road safetyD. walking while using phones hurts one's eyes57. Carol Harvey suggests that cyclists should _______.A. be provided with enough roadsB. be asked to ride on their own lanesC. be made to pay less tax for cyclingD. be fined for laughing at policemen58. What is a complaint of JML?A. Very few drivers are insured.B. Cyclists ride fast on pavements.C. Pedestrians go through red traffic lights.D. Horse riders disrespect other road users.59. The underlined word "they" in the third letter refers to______.A. accidentsB. vehiclesC. pedestriansD. cyclists60. The three letters present viewpoints on _______.A. real source of road dangerB. ways to improve road facilitiesC. measures to punish road offencesD. increased awareness of road rulesBIn its early history, Chicago had floods frequently, especially in the spring, making the streets so muddy that people, horses, and carts got stuck. An old joke that was popular at the time went something like this: A man is stuck up to his waist in a muddy Chicago street. Asked if he needs help, he replies, "No, thanks. I've got a good horse under me."The city planner decided to build an underground drainage (排水) system, but there simply wasn't enough difference between the height of the ground level and the water level. The only two options were to lower the Chicago River or raise the city.An engineer named Ellis Chesbrough convinced me the city that it had no choice but to build the pipes above ground and then cover them with dirt. This raised the level of the city's streets by as much as 12 feet.This of course created a new problem: dirt practically buried the first floors of every building in Chicago. Building owners were faced with a choice: either change the first floors of their buildings into basements, and the second stories into main floors, or hoist the entire buildings to meet the new street level. Small wood-framebuildings could be lifted fairly easily. But what about large, heavy structures like Tremont Hotel, which was a six-story brick building?That's where George Pullman came in. He had developed some house-moving skills successfully. To lift a big structure like the Tremont Hotel, Pullman would place thousands of jackscrews (螺旋千斤顶) beneath the building's foundation. One man was assigned to operate each section of roughly 10 jackscrews. At Pullman's signal each man turned his jackscrew the same amount at the same time, thereby raising the building slowly and evenly. Astonishingly, the Tremont Hotel stay open during the entire operation, and many of its guests didn't even notice anything was happening. Some people like to say that every problem has a solution. But in Chicago's early history, every engineering solution seemed to create a new problem. Now that Chicago's waste water wasdraining efficiently into the Chicago River, the city's next step was to clean the polluted river.61. The author mentions the joke to show ______.A. horses were fairly useful in ChicagoB. Chicago's streets were extremely muddyC. Chicago was very dangerous in the springD. the Chicago people were particularly humorous62. The city planners were convinced by Ellis Chesbroughto_______.A. get rid of the street dirtB. lower the Chicago RiverC. fight against heavy floodsD. build the pipes above ground63. The underlined word "hoist" in Paragraph 4 means "_______".A. changeB. liftC. repairD. decorate64. What can we conclude about the moving operation of the Tremont Hotel?A. It went on smoothly as intended.B. It interrupted the business of the hotel.C. It involved Pullman turning ten jackscrews.D. It separated the building from its foundation.65. The passage is mainly about the early Chicago's ______.A. popular life styles and their influencesB. environmental disasters and their causesC. engineering problems and their solutionsD. successful businessmen and their achievementsCHave your parents ever inspected your room to see if you cleaned it properly? Imagine having your entire houses, garage, and yard inspected at any time -- with no warning. Inspections were a regular part of lighthouse (灯塔) living, and a keeper's reputation depended on results. A few times each year, an inspector arrived to look over the entire light station. The inspections were supposed to be a surprise, but keeper sometimes had advance notice.Once lighthouses had telephones, keepers would call each other to warn that the inspector was approaching. After boats began flying special flags noting the inspector aboard, the keeper's family made it a game to see who could notice the boat first. As soon as someone spotted the boat, everyone would do last-minute tidying and change into fancy clothes. The keeper then scurried to put on his dress uniform and cap. Children of keepers remember inspectors wearing white gloves to runtheir fingers over door frames and windowsills looking for dust.Despite the serious nature of inspections, they resulted in some funny moments. Betty Byrnes remembered when her mother did not have time to wash all the dishes before an inspection. At the time, people did not have dishwashers in their homes. In an effort to clean up quickly, Mrs. Byrnes tossed all the dishes into a big bread pan, covered them with a cloth and stuck them in the oven. If the inspector opened the oven door, it would look like bread was baking. he never did.One day, Glenn Furst's mother put oil on the kitchen floor just before the inspector entered their house. Like floor wax, the oil made the floors shiny and helped protect the wood. This time, though, she used a little too much oil. When the inspector extended his hand to greet Glenn's mother, he slipped on the freshly oiled surface. "He came across that floor waving his arms like a young bird attempting its first flight," Glenn late wrote. After he steadied himself, he shook Glenn's mother's hand, and the inspection continued as though nothing had happened.66. What does Paragraph I tell us about the inspection at the light station?A. It was carried out once a year.B. It was often announced in advance.C. It was important for the keeper's fame.D. It was focused on the garage and yard.67. The family began making preparations immediately after______.A. one of the members saw the boatB. a warning call reached the lighthouseC. the keeper put on the dress uniform and capD. the inspector flew special flags in the distance68. Mrs. Byrnes put the dishes in the oven because this would ______.A. result in some funB. speed up washing themC. make her home look tidyD. be a demand from the inspector69. If the inspector had opened the oven door, he would have seen _______.A. an empty panB. many clean dishesC. pieces of baked breadD. a cloth covering something70. The inspector waved his arms ______.A. to try his best to keep steadyB. to show his satisfaction with the floorC. to extend a warm greeting to Glenn's motherD. to express his intention to continue the inspectionPart 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.Not all print dictionaries are the same, as you will notice when you select one. To make a wise selection, you should know how to distinguish among three kinds of print dictionaries: pocket, desk, and unabridged. You should also know the copyright date of your dictionary, and check is special features.A pocket dictionary is small. Generally, it contains no more than 75000 entries, making it hardly to carry to class and efficient to use. However, a pocket dictionary doesn't contain enough entries to be adequate for college reference homework. In addition, the information about each word in a pocket dictionary is generally limited. A desk dictionary is medium sized, generally containing over 100,000 entries as well as extra features. For college work, you should own a current desk dictionary. An unabridged dictionary is a complete dictionary. Abridged dictionaries, such as pocket and desk dictionaries, are shortened. Because unabridged dictionaries contain nearly all English words, they are large and heavy. They are often used by schools and libraries.If the copyright date of your current dictionary shows that it was published five or more years ago, consider investing in a more recent edition. English is a dynamic language that admits new words and recognizes changes in meaning, spelling, and usage of familiar words. This is reflected in an up-to-date dictionary.In selecting a dictionary, check the features it offers besides vocabulary definitions. Many editions contain signs, symbols and foreign words. Some also contain CD-ROMs and access to special online features.Section B (10 mark.)Directions: Read the following passage. Answer the questions according to the information given in the passage.Walk Out of the Comfort Zone and Try New ThingsFor most high school students, free periods are useless. From what I have seen, few do homework, instead many are on their phones and talking, making it impossible for those who actually want to do work to complete any. As a senior next year, I think extra periods should be used to take optional subjects.Our school offers many classes. Now is the time to experiment in different fields of study. We will never know if we are interested or talented in a subject if we don't try it.In my 8th grade, I was told that I had to take an art class as a graduation requirement; so in the 9th grade I took Studio and Art. One of the projects was to build a clay pot, but I built mine incorrectly, so it broke in the kiln (窑). I found out that I have no artisticability at all, and now I know for sure that I do not want to be an artist. However, the class was one of my favorites that year. I was able to try new activities and test my ability.Walk out of our comfort zone and try new things! College is when we should focus on a specific major, but high school is when we have to figure it out.Half of all college students change their major at some point. By doing that hundreds of dollars are wasted on classes that they would have never needed to take. So use our extra periods to find out what we want to do in college. The classes we choose can impact us in future. Taking optional subjects will enrich our mind. It will also show colleges we are diverse students.81.

AMarlene Dietrich is finally to be honored by her home city, Berlin.For more than half a century, the famous film star won huge fame in Hollywood, but remained a highly controversial(引起争议的)figure in Germany.When the city’s new film museum is opened on Sep tember 26, three of its 15 rooms will show the star’s possessions collected over a lifetime.In addition to various collections by Marlene, visitors will be able to see all Marlene Dietrich’s movies. There will also be key except for a vast range of Germany-made films.Dietrich became a world star after her wonderful performance in a movie. After that, she turned her back on Germany, horrified by the sudden movement of Nazi in her hometown.A few years after the war, the star was persuaded to pay a short visit to Berlin. But the trip proved a disaster. At a city hall gathering in West Berlin, crowds turned out to see her, but not all friendly.She was attacked at times. She found herself being blamed for wearing an American uniform during the war to please U.S. troops in Europe. She was also scolded for “turning her back on the country”.Dietrich, deeply hurt, decided she would never return to Berlin again. But she softened her judgment.When she died in Paris in 1972, it was at her express wish that her body should be sent back to Berlin for burial alongside her mother in a local cemetery.1. From the second paragraph, we can get to know that_______.A. Germans were narrowed-mindedB. Germans were difficult to get along withC. all Germans admired DietrichD. some Germans disliked Dietrich2. The underlined sentence “she turned her back on Germany” (in paragraph 5) means_______.A. Dietrich looked down upon her countryB. Dietrich turned away from her countryC. Dietrich gave up performance in her countryD. Dietrich lost her job in her country3. According to the passage, which of the following is NOT true?A. Visitors can see various collections by Marlene in Berlin’s new film museum.B. Dietrich was a famous film star in Hollywood.C. After the war, Dietrich paid a short visit to her country.D. Wearing an Australian uniform during the war, Dietrich was regarded a betrayer(背叛者) to her country.4. The famous film star, as a whole, ________.A. hated her country because she was once scolded for betraying Germany.B. enjoyed her life in FranceC. loved her country from her heartD. felt satisfied with her performanceBA mother’s loveI’M a New York City firefighter. Every day, I see terror –sometimes even death. But the day I found Scarlett was different. That day I saw life. And love.We were responding to a call about a burning garage. Outside, I heard the sound of cats crying. I couldn’t stop –I would have to look for the cats after the fire was put out.It took a long time to finally bring the big fire under control, but we did it. No one inside was hurt.At that point I was free to investigate the cat noises. There was still a lot of smoke and heat coming from the building. I followed the meowing(猫叫) to a spot on the sidewalk near the front of the garage. There, crying and huddled(挤作一团) together, were five terrified kittens. They must have been inside the building, as their fur was badly singed(烫烧).[:.]I left the five kittens in a box o n a neighbor’s porch(门廊).I wanted to find the mother. It was obvious that she had gone into the burning garage and carried out all of her babies, one by one – unbelievable.We finally found her. She was badly burnt: her eyes were blistered (起水泡), her paws(爪子) were blackened, and her fur was singed all over. You could even see her reddened skin beneath the burned fur. She could barely move. I picked her up, and she relaxed in my arms as much as her pain would allow. Sensing hertrust, I shed a tear. I was determined to save this brave little cat and her family.The vet told me they would observe the kittens and their mother overnight, but they weren’t optimistic about the mother’s changes.About a week later, I found out she was going to live. One of the technicians suggested we name her Scarlett, because of her reddened skin.Knowing what Scarlett endured(忍受) for her kittens, it melted my heart to see her reunited with them. She touched each of them again, nose to nose, to make sure they were all safe. She had risked her life five separate times – and it had paid off. All of her babies had survived.As a firefighter, I see heroism(英雄事迹) every day. But what Scarlett showed me that day was the kind of bravery that can only come from a mother’s love.5. Which of the following is TRUE according to the article?A. The author went to rescue the cats as soon as he heard them crying.B. The firefighters put out the big fire quickly and no one was hurt.C. The mother cat moved all of her five babies to a safer place despite the fire.D. The author didn’t find the cats until the smoke and heat were gone.6. Why was the author determined to save the cats?A. He refused to watch someone else die in his work.B. He was impressed by the mother’s strong love and courage.C. The cat’s story had made many people concerned.D. It had taken much time and effort for him to save them.7. Which best describes the author’s tone in the article?A. ObjectiveB. Admiring.C. Excited.D. Optimistic.CFighting racial stereotypes(模式化)on US campuses often begins by putting students of different ethnic backgrounds together – under one dormitory roof.Sam Boakye was a freshman at OhioStateUniversity and the only black student on his floor. He was determined to get good grades – in part to make sure his white roommate had no basis for negative racial views. "You're pushed to do better, to challenge the stereotype that black people are not that smart," he told the New York Times.Several recent studies have found that having a roommate of a different race can reduce prejudice(偏见), diversify(使多样化)friendships and even promote students’academic performance. In a study by OhioState psychology professor Russell Fazio, black freshmen who came to college with high test scores earned better grades if they had a white roommate—even if the roommate’s test scores were low. Another study on student interaction by DukeUniversity suggests that freshmen with roommates of a different race were the most likely to diversify their friendships. “Just having diversi ty in classrooms doesn’t do anything to increase interracial friendships,”said Claudia Buchman, an author of the Duke study. “But living together with a different-race roommate does lead to more interracial friendships.”There are, however, some problems with such room assignments. Fazio’s study found that three times as many randomly(随机地) assigned interracial roommates weren’t livingtogether at the end of the semester, compared with white roommates. Interracial roommates also spent less time together, had fewer joint activities and were less involved with each other’s friends than white pairs.As for Boakye, this is not the case. “A lot of white students come without much exposure(暴露)to diversity, so when their first interaction with a black guy isn’t bad, they will make more black friends. I think I made a good impression on my freshman roommate. I saw him this year, and he said, ‘Hey dude, you’re not the only black friend I have.’ That felt good.”8. Having a roommate of a different race can have the following benefits EXCEPT________ .A. making more friendsB. reducing prejudiceC. earning better gradesD. improving physical health9. Sam Boakye was determined to get good grades partly because________.A. he wanted to prove he was a smart boyB. he intended to please his parentsC. he wished to earn the scholarshipD. he wanted to show black people are as smart as white people10. We can conclude that Boakye________.A. got along well with his white roommateB. shared fewer joint activities with his white roommateC. had a negative attitude towards his white roommateD. is still living together with his freshman white roommate11. The 4th paragraph is mainly about________.A. the interracial friendshipB. some problems with having an interracial roommateC. some comments on the interracial roommatesD. the interaction between the black student and the white studentDScientists found that sleeping considerably improves our creativity. After taking a nap people are able to think faster and put more imagination into their thinking. Besides, if we dream, the thinking abilities are improved even more.Researchers consider that sleeping on a problem in most cases leads to elucidation(解释). They say when a person enters a phase called Rapid Eye Movement (REM) during sleep, it increases the effect. Such phase takes place right before we awake and according to scientists it helps our brain make links between unrelated subjects.In the study, led by Professor Sara Mednick, scientists made a conclusion that the REM was “important for assimilating(消化)new information into past experience” in order to find solutions to creative problems.Prof. Mednick is a psychiatrist at the University of California. Her study involved the analysis of 77 adults. Each participant was given several word-associated creative tasks. All tasks were given in the morning, with participants being shown a number of groups of 3 words, for example: cookie, heart and sixteen. They were asked to come up with a word that would be associated with all three given terms—like sweet. Sometime later, after some participants were allowed to sleep, they were asked to perform the same tasks and some new ones. It is worth mentioning that while some people slept, researchers used brain scans to see the type of sleep each participant entered.When given the same tasks, participants, who took a nap, were able to give more varied solutions, some of which weremuch better than they gave earlier. But when given new tasks, researchers found that those who entered REM sleep had a 40 percent better result compared to the performance they showed in the morning.12. What does “it” refer to in the second paragraph?A. The effect.B. REM.C. Sleep.D. A problem.13. Why do the researchers study the REM?A. Because REM takes place just after you sleep.B. Because REM can store more information.C. Because REM can help find creative solutions.D. Because REM can make a creative invention.14. What can we know from this passage?A. Taking a short nap is good for your thinking during the day.B. Sleeping has three processes which is good for creativity.C. Each adult was allowed to sleep after the task was given.D. REM is a process taking place right after we awake when we nap.15. The important stage in the study is________.A. to think of a creative wordB. to show a group of 3 wordsC. to give participants time to thinkD. to let some participants sleep for a whileZxxkCom第二节 (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。

BIn the mid-1950s, I was a somewhat bored early-adolescent male student who believed that doing any more than necessary was wasted effort. One day, this approach threw me into embarrassmentIn Mrs. Totten’s eighth-grade math class at Central Avenue School in Anderson, Indiana, we were learning to add and subtract decimals (小数).Our teacher typically assigned daily homework, which would be recited in class the following day. On most days, our grades were based on our oral answer to homework questions.Mrs. Totten usually walked up and down the rows of desks requesting answers from student after student in the order the questions had apeared on our homework sheets. She would start either at the front or the back of the classroom and work toward the other end.Since I was seated near the middle of about 35 students, it was easy to figure out which questions I might have to answer. This particular time, I had completed my usual two or three problems according to my calculations.英语试题第7页(共12页)What I failed to expect was that several students were absent, which threw off my estimate. As Mrs. Totten made her way fromthe beginning of the class，I desperately tried to determine which math problem I would get. I tried to work it out before she got to me, but I had brain freeze and couldn’t function.When Mrs. Totten reached my desk，she asked what answer I’d got for problem No. 14. “I…I didn’t get anything,” I answered，and my face felt warm.“Correct,” she said.It turned out that the correct answer was zero.What did I learn that day? First, always do all your homework. Second, in real life it isn’t always what you say but how you say it that matters. Third，I would never make it as a mathematician.If I could choose one school day that taught me the most, it would be that one.61. What does the underlined part in Paragraph 1 indicate?A. It is wise to value one’s time.B. It is important to make an effortC. It is right to stick to one’s belief.D. It is enough to do the necessary.62. Usually, Mrs. Totten asked her students to _______.A. recite their homework togetherB. grade their homework themselvesC. answer their homework questions orallyD. check the answers to their homework questions63. The author could work out which questions to answer since the teacher always _______.A. asked questions in a regular wayB. walked up and down when asking questionsC. chose two or three questions for the studentsD. requested her students to finish their usual questions64. The author failed to get the questions he had expectedbecause _______.A. the class didn’t begin as usualB. several students didn’t come to schoolC. he didn’t try hard to make his estimateD. Mrs. Totten didn’t start from the back of the class65，Which of the following can be the best title for the passage?A. An Unforgettable TeacherB. A Future MathematicianC. An Effective ApproachD. A Valuable Lesson62. Usually, Mrs. A. recite theirCThe behaviour of a building’s users may be at least as important as its design when it comes to energy use, according to new research from the UK Energy Research Centre (UKERC). The UK promises to reduce its carbon emissions (排放)by 80 percent by 2050, part of which will be achieved by all new homes being zero-carbon by 2016. But this report shows that sustainable building design on its own —though extremely important- is not enough to achieve such reductions: the behaviour of the people using the building has to change too.The study suggests that the ways that people use and live in their homes have been largely ignored by existing efforts to improve energy efficiency (效率)，which instead focus on architectural and technological developments.‘Technology is going to assist but it is not going to do everything,’explains Katy Janda, a UKERC senior researcher，‘consumption patterns of building users can defeat the most careful design. ’In other words，old habits die hard, even in thebest-designed eco-home.Another part of the problem is information. Households and bill-payers don’t have the knowledge they need to change their energy-use habits. Without specific information，it’s hard to estimate the costs and benefits of making different choices. Feedback (反馈) facilities, like smart meters and energy monitors，could help bridge this information gap by helping people see how changing their behaviour directly affects their energy use; some studies have shown that households can achieve up to 15 percent energy savings using smart meters.Social science research has added a further dimension (方面)，suggesting that individuals’behaviour in the home can be personal and cannot be predicted 一 whether people throw open their windows rather than turn down the thermostat (恒温器) , for example.Janda argues that education is the key. She calls for a focused programme to teach people about buildings and their own behaviour in them.66. As to energy use, the new research from UKERC stresses the importance of________.A. zero-carbon homesB. the behaviour of building usersC. sustainable building designD. the reduction of carbon emissions67. The underlined word “which” in Paragraph 2 refers to”________.”A. the waysB. their homesC. developmentsD. existing efforts68. What are Katy Janda’s words mainly about?A. The importance of changing building users, habits.B. The necessity of making a careful building design.C. The variety of consumption patterns of building users.D. The role of technology in improving energy efficiency. ZXXK69. The information gap in energy use _______.A. can be bridged by feedback facilitiesB. affects the study on energy monitorsC. brings about problems for smart metersD. will be caused by building users’ old habits70. What does the dimension added by social science research suggest?A. The social science research is to be furthered.B. The education programme is under discussion.C. The behaviour of building users is unpredictable.D. The behaviour preference of building users is similar.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.Many of us invest valuable time，energy and money planning our vacations. We do this because we know for sure that going on vacations must be good for us. Research proves this feeling without a doubt. Vacations help us perform better at work, improve our sleep quality and cushion us against depression.Yet, despite these benefits, many of us return home with a feeling that our last vacation was OK - but not great. In order to change this, some mistakes should be avoided. A classic one for vacation planners is attempting to maximize value for money by planning trips that have too many components (组成部分)• Perhaps you’re planning a trip to Europe, seven cities in 10 days，and you realize it will cost only a little more to add two more destinations to the list Sounds fine in theory, but hopping from one place to the next hardly gives an opportunity to experience what psychologists call mindfulness - time to take in our new surroundings, time to be present and absorb our travel experiences. Another mistake is that we worry too much about strategic issues such as how to find a good flight deal，how to get from A to B，or which destinations to add or subtract from our journey. These issues may seem important, but our psychological state of mind is far more important.Actually, vacation happiness is based on the following top rules. First, choose your travel companions wisely, because nothing contributes more significantly to a trip than the right companions. Second，don’t spend your vacation time in a place where everything is too expensive so as to maintain a positive mood. Third, shop wisely, for meaningful experiences provide more long-term happiness than physical possessions.Section B (10 marks)Directions: Read the following passage. Answer the questions according to theinformation given in the passage.Kids and PondsYears ago there was a group of kids who would hang around at some local ponds in the woods near their houses in Warwick, Rhode Island. In summer they caught frogs and fish. When winter arrived they couldn’t wait to go skating. Time passed, and the ponds became the only open space for the kids to enjoy themselves in that neighborhood.One day. a thirteen-year-old boy from this group of kids read in the local newspaper that a developer wanted to fill in theponds and build over a hundred small houses called condominiums. So the boy went door to door and gathered more than two hundred signatures (签名)to stop the development A group of citizens met and decided to support him.At the meeting of the town planning board (委员会)，the boy was quite nervous at first and spoke very softly. But when he saw the faces of his friends and neighbors in the crowd and thought about what was happening to their favorite ponds，his voice grew louder. He told the town officials that they should speak for the citizens. He also insisted that they should leave enough space for children. A few days later，the developer stopped his plan.Nine years later, when that teen was a senior in college, he was informed that the developer was back with his proposal to build condominiums. Now twenty-two years old, he was studying wetlands ecology. He again appeared before the town planning board. This time as an expert witness, he used environmental protection laws to explain restrictions on development in and around wetlands and the knowledge of wetlands ecology to help improve the development. Finally some condominiums were built, but less than half the number the developer wanted. The ponds where those kids used to hang around were protected bya strip of natural land，and are still there today.81. What did the kids like to do at the local ponds in winter?(No more than 6 words) (2 marks)82. How did the boy win the citizens’ support?(No more than 10 words)(2 marks)83. What did the boy tell the town officials?(No more than 16 words)(3 marks)84.What helped the boy to protect the ponds successfully nine years later?(No more than 12 words)(3 marks)Section C (25 marks)Directions: Write an English composition according to the instructions given below.学校正在组织科技创新大赛，你想为日常生活中某件物品(如钢笔、书包、鞋子……)设计添加新功能来参赛。
