Each passage is followed by five questions or unfinished statements. For each of them, there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the centre.Passage 1After a day of work and play, the body needs to rest. Enough sleep is necessary for good health. During this time, the body recovers from the activities of the previous day. The rest that you get while sleeping enables your body to prepare itself for the next day.There are four levels of sleep, each being a little deeper than the one before. As you sleep, your muscles relax little by little. Your heart beats more slowly, and your brain slows down. After you reach the fourth level, your body shifts back and forth from one level of sleep to another.Although your mind slows down, from time to time you will dream. Scientists who study sleep state that when dreaming occurs, your eyeballs begin to move more quickly (Although your eyelids are closed). This stage of sleep is called REM, which stands for rapid eye movement.If you have trouble falling asleep, some people recommend that you breathe very deeply. Other people believe that drinking warm milk will help make you drowsy. There is also an old suggestion that counting sheep will help you fall asleep!41. A good title for this passage isA. SleepB. Good HealthC. DreamsD. Work and Rest42. The word drowsy in the last paragraph meansA. sickB. awake C, asleep D sleepy43. This passage suggests that not getting enough sleep might cause you toA. dream much oftenB. have poor healthC. feel too nervousD. breathe very deeply44. According to the passage, during REM,A. your eyes move quicklyB. you dreamC. you are restlessD. both A and B45. The average number of hours of sleep that an adult needs isA. approximately six hoursB. around ten hoursC. about eight hoursD. not stated in the passagePassage 2Daniel Anderson, a famous psychologist, believes it's important to distinguish television's influences on children from those of the family. We tend to blame TV, he says, for problems it doesn't really cause, overlooking our own roles in shaping children's minds.One traditional belief about television is that it reduces a child's ability to think and to understand the world. While watching TV, children do not merely absorb words and images (影像). Instead, they learn both stated and implied meanings from what they see, Actually, children learn early the psychology of characters in TV shows. Furthermore, as many teachers agree, children understand far more when their parents watch TV with them, explaining new words and ideas. Yet, most parents use an educational program as a chance to sit their kids in front of the TV set and do something in another room.Another argument against television is that it replaces reading as a form of entertainment. But according to Anderson, the amount of time spent watching television is not related to reading ability. TV doesn't take the place of reading for most children; it takes the place of similar sorts of recreation, such as listening to the radio and playing sports. Things like parents' educational background have a stronger influence on a child's reading. "A child's reading ability is best predicted by how much a parent reads," Anderson says.Traditional wisdom also has it that heavy television-watching lowers children's IQ scores and affects their school performance. But here, too, Anderson notes that no studies have proved it. In fact, research suggests that it's the other way around. "If you're smart young, you'll watch less TV when you're older," Anderson says. Yet, people of lower IQ tend to be lifelong television viewers.Foryears, researchers have attempted to show that television is dangerous to children. However, by showing that television promotes none of the dangerous effects as conventionally (传统地) believed, Anderson suggests that television cannot be blamed without considering other influences.46. By watching TV, children learnA. images through wordsB. both stated and implied meaningsC. more about images than wordsD. little about people's psychology47. According to the passage, an educational program is best watched by childrenA. on their ownB. with other kidsC. with their parentsD. with their teachers48. Which of the following is most related to children's reading ability?A. Listening to the radio.B. Watching television.C. Parents' reading list.D. Parents' educational background.49. Anderson believed thatA. the more children watch TV, the smarter they areB. the younger children are, the more they watch TVC. the smarter children are, the less likely they are more interested in watching TVD. the less children watch TV, the better they perform at school50. What is the purpose of the passage?A. To advise that TV should be used for educational:purposes.B. To describe the harmful effects of TV on children.C. To explain traditional views of influences that TV has had on children.D. To suggest that television cannot be blamed for problems it doesn't cause.Passage 3It was a cold winter day. A woman drove up to the Rainbow Bridge tollbooth (收费站). “I'm paying for myself, and for the six cars-behind me,” she said with a smile. One after another, the next six drivers arriving at' the tollbooth were informed, “Some lady up ahead already you’re your fare.”It turned out that the woman, Natalie Smith, had read something on a friend's refrigerator: "Practice random (随意的) kindness and senseless acts of beauty." The phrase impressed her so much that she copied it down.Judy Foreman spotted the same phrase on a warehouse wall far away from home When it stayed on her mind for days,she decided to drive all the way back to copy it down. “I thought it was be autiful,” she said, explaining why she would write it at the bottom of all her letters, “like a message from above.” Her husband, Frank, liked the phrase so much that he put it up on the classr0om.wall:for his students, one of whom was the daughter of Alice Johnson, a local news reporter. ~ Alice .put it in the newspaper, admitting that though she liked i.t, she did not know here it came from or what it really meant.Two days later, Alice got a call from Anne Herbert, a woman living in Matin. It was in a restaurant that Anne wrote the phrase down on a piece of paper, after turning it around in her mind for days."Here's the idea," Anne says. "Anything you think there should be more of, do it randomly." Her fantasies include painting the classrooms of old schools, leaving hot meals on kitchen tables in the poor part of town, and giving money secretly to a poor old lady. Anne says, "Kindness can build on itself as much as violence can."The acts of random kindness spread. If you were one of those drivers who found your fare aid, who knows what you might have been inspired to do for someone else later. Like all great events, kindness begins slowly, with every single act. Let it be yours!51. Why did Natalie Smith pay for the six cars behind her?A. She knew the car drivers well.B. She wanted to show kindness.C. She hoped to please others.D. She had seven tickets.52. Judy Foreman copied down the phrase because sheA. thought it was beautifully writtenB. wanted to know what it really meantC. decided to write it on a warehouse wallD. wanted her husband to put it up in the classroom53. Who wrote the phrase down on a piece of paper according to the passage?A. Judy Foreman.B. Natalie Smith.C. Alice Johnson.D. Anne Herbert.54. Which of the following statements is closest in meaning to the underlined sentence in thepassage?A. Kindness and violence can change the world.B. Kindness and violence can affect people's behavior.C. Kindness and violence can reproduce themselves.D. Kindness and violence can shape people's character.55. What can be inferred from the last paragraph?A. People should not practice random kindness to those in need.B. People who receive kindness are likely to offer it to others.C. People should not practice random kindness to strangers they meet.D. People who receive kindness are less likely to pay it back to the giver.Passage 4Peter loved to buy used articles. Almost a month ago, he bought a popular word game that used little pieces of wood with different letters on them. As he was purchasing it, the salesgirl said, "Uh, look, the game box hasn't even been opened yet. That mig ht be worth some money.”Peter examined the box, and sure enough, it was completely covered in factory-sealed plastic. He saw a date of 1973 on the back of the box."You should put that up for auction (拍卖) on the Internet, and see what happens," the salesgirl said."Yes, you're right. People like something rare," Peter agreed, "I can't imagine there being very any unopened boxes of this game still around 40 years later.""Don't forget to tell me if you sell it," the salesgirl smiled."No problem," Peter said.After he got home, Peter went online to several auction websites looking for his game, but he could not find it. Then he typed in the name of the word game and hit SEARCH. The search result was 543 websites containing information about the changes of the game. Over the years, the game had been produced using letters in different sizes and game boards in different colors. He also found some lists of game fans looking for various versions of the game. Peter emailed some of them, telling them what he had.Two weeks later, Peter went back to the shop."Hello! Do you still remember the unopened word game?"The salesgirl looked at him for a second, then recognized him and said, "Oh, hi!""I've got something for you," Peter said. "I sold the game and made $1,000. Thank you for your suggestion." He handed her three $100 bills."Wow!" the salesgirl cried out. "Thank you! I never expected it."56.

Contestants(参与者)on the show were school pupils, but it was found that 70 % of adults in the audience(观众)were unable to remember how to write the word “chan chu”.Because computers allow people to type characters simply by entering pinyin(拼音), they don’t need to remember how to write them. “The keyboard age has had a big influence on the handwriting of Chinese characters.”Guan Zhengwen, who designed and directed the show said. He added that he hoped to encourage people to keep it alive as an art form.Hao Mingjian, an editor of a magazine, putting his heart into Chinese characters,said,“Learning Chinese characters goes on throughout your life.

AHe’s the computer talent who is like Bill Gates-despite being just eight,but age is just a number to Jay Williams,from Birmingham, who is quickly gaining a reputation as the master for computer-related problems.From helping his neighbours to come to the the rescue when the computers crashed at school, Jay is proved to be a tiny troubleshooter.Jay was using a computer by the age of two, and was five when he built his first website.Aged just seven Jay became one of the youngest people ever to complete a globally-recognised IT qualification, after his mum,Sarah,struggled to find a computer club to keep up with her son's good talents.Sarah quickly discovered her son’s potential and set about finding a computer club to sign her son up to,but failed.It was while doing some research on the internet that mother and son came across a website for the European Computer Driving License,a set of seven exams with a widecovering.Jay tried out some sample question ang it became clear he had the potential to pass the real thing.Mother and son’s persistence(坚持)has paid off,and Jay is now aone-boy helpline,answering questions from friends and neibors withe-mail,Sarah said he even came to the rescue when the computers went down during a lesson at school.Jay has now been rewarded for his efforts after behind highly praised by the BT Internet Rangers of the Year award.which rewards youngsters who are helping to bridge the digital gap between generations in their local communities.Simon Paul, BT community investment manager, said: 'The internet provides a gateway to so many positive things and it is fantastic to see the commitment the younger generation has by showing others how to get online.'Congratulations to Jay - his award is richly deserved.'1.Jay Williams gets well-known quickly for his talent inA.designing computer gamesB.developing special softwareC.dealing with computer problemsD. coming to the rescue others2.According to the text, Jay’motherA.discovered Jay’s potential in IT too lateB.built her first website much earlier than Jay.C.worked as a computer troubleshooter in her schooD.managed to encourage and support her son by all means3.What is the main cause of Jay’s present successA.His tanlent and strong willB.His young age and family wealthC.His strong age health and mother’s love.D.His talent from birth.4.Why is Jay highly praised and rewarded by the BT Internet Rangers?A.Many children follow him to start their own business.B.He has helped more people to communicate online.C.Children have learned to think positively from himD.He has helped people to get the driving license easilyB“Clothes shopping”has become an increasing popular activity for women in the United States.The women can give away unwanted clothing at a clothes awap event and get something different in return.Recently about 300 women went to a clothes swap at a high school in Springfield, Virginia. It was the largest crowd ever for the area's popular clothing-swap group.Dophne Steinberg was having a very good day. "For anyone who knows Ann Taylor LOFT, Ann Taylor is a really nice women's designer and I will totally wear this to work. So, I love that, I love that I can equip myself for work, have a good time in doing it, not totally bankrupt myself." Sandy Van Dusen likes the idea that clothes are finding new homes instead of being thrown away."Because it helps to keep the Earth green. There's no point in my opinion in continuing to buy new clothes when we can reuse what's already here. Give it a new home -- you know, let somebody else love what you used to love and no longer love."Kim Pratt organized the clothing-swapping event in Springfield. She also organized a money-raising activity for the high school's debate team. It is one of several ways that her group gives to charitable causes. Another is by donating all of the "un-swapped" clothing to shelters for victims of domestic violence."I started doing this myself four years ago, and we've been doing it for four years, getting bigger and bigger each time we have a swap."She used the social media website to help publicize the events. The website has helped her group grow from 30 members to 1,300. Ms. Pratt says most of the members respect clothing swap rules. But she says competition for desirable fashion can be strong."We have to tell people sometimes not to hover over the new people coming in with their clothing. As they put it out, some people tend to grab the stuff right out of their hands and it becomes like a free-for-all. We try to avoid that as much as possible."5.At a clothes awap woman canA.make some money by giving away unwanted clothingB.buy whatever clothing they likeC.have a social gathering and make friendsD. exchange unwanted clothing for something different6.We can learn from what Daphne Steinbery said thatA.she got some nice clothes at the clothes awapB.the clothes swap was the largest ever in the area.C.it was the first time she had been to a clothes awapD.she saved much more money than she had expected7.What is Paragraph 5 mainly about?A.How Kim Pratt started the clothing- awapping event.B.What Kim Pratt did with the un-swapped clothesC. How Kim Pratt raised money to help charitable causes.D.what Kim Pratt did to help people in need.8.It can be inferred from the last paragraph that .A. clothes awap often go out of control in the end.B. clothes awapping is becoming increasingly popular with womenC.Improper(不恰当的)behavior at clothes swaps needs to be controlled.D.more clothing swapping events need to be organized.CThe National Park Service in the United States will mark its 100th anniversary in 2016. As it nears its second century, the Park Service plans to increase its educational programs for students and teachers.The plans include transportation support for one hundred thousand students each year to visit national parks to learn about nature and history. Yellowstone is believed to have been the world's first national park when it was established in 1872. Other students will get a chance to see parks in faraway places through Skype and other online programs.The National Park Service also works with partners to provide education. One of its partners is a nonprofit organization called NatureBridge. NatureBridge is celebrating its fortieth anniversary and says one million young people have taken part in its programs. The organization works with students from kindergarten through twelfth grade and uses national parks as its classrooms. It provides field science programs atYosemite National Park and four other locations in California and the northwestern state of Washington.Now, NatureBridge is launching an East Coast center with a four-million-dollar grant from Google. The program will begin in April at the Prince William Forest Park in Virginia. Students stay for three to five days in NatureBridge programs. The activities are aimed at developing their science skills. For example, they learn about different soils and study water quality under a microscope.Jason Morris is executive vice president of NatureBridge. He says when they are not sleeping, eating or in a laboratory, the students spend their time outdoors.Julia Washburn is associate director of education and interpretation for the National Park Service. She says in a time of budget cuts, the agency has to find ways to still meet its goals. Ms. Washburn says one of the most important services that the Park Service provides every day is nature interpretation.9.You can probably read this text in the section ofcationB.travelC.ertertainmentD.health10.According to the text,NaturebridgeA.finances all the programs aloneB.is aimed at laboratory activitiesC.has benefited quite a lot of studentD.provides online field science program11.According to Julia Washbum,we know the National Park ServiceA.is finding ways to raise moneyB.is cutting its expenceC.will provide better servicesD.knows more about nature12.The text is intended to tell us thatA.students are encouraged to learn about nature and historyB.more educational programs will be started in national parksC.Naturebridge plans to work with the National Park ServiceD.the National Park Service will celebrate its 100 th anniversaryDYou’re on the third lap around the car park,there are no open spaces,and you’re already 15 minutes late for your appointment.Right now you’re wishing you could jump out of the car and let it go find its own spot.Now there’s an app for that.Virtual Valet lets your iphone tell your car to park without you in it.“You pull up to the roadside,push a button on your smartphone and the car takes care of everthing else,”says Aeron Steinfeld,the lead researcher for the project at Carnegie Mellon University in pittsburgh,Pennsylvania.To find its own spot,the system uses a sensor suite similar to ones found in many luxury cars.This includes a motion sensor that scans for moving cars and pedestrians,and a forward-facing laser rangefinder normally found in adaptive cruise control to determine the distance of objects in front of the rmation from these sensors is then fed to an onboard computer to plot the vehicle’s course.The user can watch t he whole process from their phone.Better still,it will be affordable.The team has spent the last year moving from high-end imaging and processing equipment to less expensive components.In experiments,the vehicle was able to navigate through a crowded parking structre,find an empty spot,and park all on its own.And the greatest appeal of the Virtual Valet Parking App is that it requires no change to existing parking facilities or infrastructure.For the moment,the only car equipped for control by Virtual Valet is Carnegie Mellon’s modified(改进)Jeep Wranger, which the researchers have named NavLab11.But Steinfeld hopes that major car manufacturers will adopt the technology.It might be more than technology that holds up theshow,however.Self-driving cars have been licensed in only three US states—California,Nevada and Florida—and it’s unclear how this app would agree with self-driving laws.Until these questions are settled,your insurance provider might be unwilling to cover a ding (凹痕)from a parking incident.13.It can be learned from the first two paragraphs that .A.parking lots are too crowdedB.parking spaces are too limitedC.you can leave your car alone if you can’t find a parking spotD.your car can park automatically(自动地) via a smartphone app14.What’s the main ides of Paragraph 3?A. How the Virtual Valet App works.B. How to determine the distance of objects.C. How to analyze the information about the vehicle’s course.D. How to use the system.15.We can infer from the text that .A.no car manufacturers show interest in the technologyB.the technology is now widey used in the USC there will be come difficulty in promoting the technology.D.the technology conflicts with self-driving laws in the US.第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)根据短文内容,从短文中的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

Out of breath, he told his grandpa that it was impossible to carry water in a basket, so he wentto get a bucket instead. The grandpa said, “I don’t want a bucket of water; I want a basket of water. You’re just not trying hard enough.” The boy again dipped the basket into the river and ran hard, but when he reached his grandpa the basket was empty again. Out of breath, he said, “Grandpa, it’s useless!”“So, you think it is useless?” the grandpa said, “Look at the basket.”The boy looked at the basket and for the first time he realized that the basket was different. It had been transformed from a dirty old coal basket and was now clean.“Grandson, that’s what happens when you read the book.

Reading for Total ChangingCThe Chinese word “Shanzhai” means a small mountain village, but now it becomes an accepted name for fakes (假货), after “Shanzhai Cell-phones” produ ced by smallworkshops in southern China became popular in the mainland market over the past two years.Besides “Shanzhai” electronic products, there are “Shanzhai” movies, “Shanzhai” stars and even a “Shanzhai” Spring Festival Gala (联欢晚会), a copy of the 25-year-old traditional show presented by CCTV on Chinese Lunar New Year’s Eve.“Shanzhai” has become a culture of its own, meaning anything that imitates something famous. In Chongqing, “Shanzhai” version “Bird’s Nest” and “Water Cube” woven by farmers with bamboo attract wide attention from tourists. Both are copies of the famous Olympic buildings in Beijing.A literature critic said that taking the “Shanzhai” Gala as an example, when the traditional CCTV program becomes less and less attractive to the audience, the “Shanzhai” version appears timely to attract people. “Although it is often connected with poor techniques and operation, ‘Shanzhai’ culture meets the psychological needs of common people and could be a comfort to their minds,” he said. To the mainstream (主流的) culture, the rise of “Shanzhai” culture is a challenge and a motivation (动力). People believe different kinds of cultures developing together is a perfect situation and it is for the public to choose.9. The Chinese word “Shanzhai” may have started with ______.A. fake cell-phoneB. electronic productsC. Spring Festival GalaD. Olympic buildings10. According to the passage, “Shanzhai” culture refers to ______.A. the action that a person imitates(模仿) famous peopleB. products with poor techniques and qualityC. anything that imitates something famousD. those similar names to famous brands(品牌)11. We can infer that the mainstream culture ______.A. is held back by “Shanzhai” cultureB. is the c hallenge of “Shanzhai” cultureC. will be replaced by “Shanzhai” cultureD. may develop faster because of the challenge of “Shanzhai” culture12. Which of the following might be the best title of the passage?A. “Shanzhai” culture will definite ly(注定地) disappearB. “Shanzhai” culture takes on life of its ownC. “Shanzhai” culture — the mainstream cultureD. “Shanzhai” culture — the mountain village cultureDPeople realize that, although animals may not have the same intelligence as human beings, they are smart enough to learn certain things.Dogs are extremely useful as companions for blind people. When a dog has been properly trained, he will always lead his blind master in the right direction and keep him out of danger. For example, seeing-eye dogs learn never to cross a busy road when cars are coming, even if their master ordered them to do so.Horses are also able to learn many things. Horses that are used for guard or police duty must learn never to be frightened of noises, traffic, and other disturbances. Racing horses are able to run much faster than other horses, but they are also quite high nervous. Therefore, it is necessary for those people who train them to be very patient and understanding.The moving pictures and television can use trained animals too. Some animals, such as monkeys and foxes, are easy to film. All you have to do is make a trail in front of the camera by dragging something that smells good to the animals over the ground. Big animals, such as lions and tigers, can be photographed as they bound happily back to their families and dinner. If a movie actor is nearby, the well-trained animal will pay no attention to him. However, the audience may imagine that the actor escaped a terrible death by the skin of his teeth.13. Dogs who help blind people must learn .A. to obey all ordersB. to obey only safe ordersC. never to cross roadsD. to cross road when ordered to do so14. Race horses are hard to train because they are .A. faster than other horsesB. smaller than other horsesC. clever than other horseD. more nervous than other horses15. What does “make a trail” mean here in the last paragraph?A. place something to attract the animalB. give the animal a certain taskC. order the animal to do thingsD. follow the animal to hunt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,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

They mark the beginning of a new experience or journey. They are also filed with mixed emotions. They can be a little frightening as we step into the unknown, but they can also inspire us as they give us fresh hope for the future. First days are powerful as we can leave our mistakes and failures in the past and make a new start.I want to share a story that perfectly illustrates this point. It is a story about a little girl named Trisha. Trishawas born into a family of teachers who had taught her that reading was the key to knowledge. She watched her older brother as he read his schoolbooks and could hardly wait for the day when she would learn to read.But when Trisha finally started school, she found that she was not able to understand the words like the other boys and girls. No matter how hard she tried, the letters mixed up together, and she saw only confusion.Trisha fell further behind, the other children laughed and made fun of her, and she began to believe that she was not smart. By the time Trisha entered fifth grade, she had lost all confidence I herself. That was the year she met Mr. Falker. He was different. He praised Trisha's talents, and he wouldn't tolerate the other children teasing her.Mr. Falker realized that Trisha didn’t know how to read, but he knew she could with some help.He recruited(招聘)a reading specialist, and together they worked with Trisha after school. They helped her to write letters ad hear the sounds until one day Mr. Falker handed her a book and she read it all by herself.Shedidn't even notice the tears in his eyes.This is a true story. The little girl is Patricia Polacco, the famous children’s author, and thank you Mr. Falker is the twenty-sixth book that she has written.Mr. Falker gave her a fresh new start when she walked into his fifth grade class on that first day of school. And he made a difference in her life.We can all make a difference in the world—one student at a time by using "first days" with wisdom and grace, and giving each individual the chance to start over and become the best that they can be.(1)Trisha fell far behind in school because she .A. was not confidentB. was looked down upon by othersC. did not know how to readD. did not try her best(2)The passage is probably intended for .A. teachersB. studentsC. children’s authorsD. reading specialists(3)How does the writer make his point?A. By giving an example.B. By making suggesting.C. By arguing.D. By persuading.(4)The passage mainly conveys the message that first days are .A. frightening as we step into the unknownB. inspiring as they give us fresh hope for the futureC. turning points from where we can make a new startD. chances when we can forget our mistakes and failures23.

Job sharing also offered an acceptable shift back into full-time work after a longabs enc e . T henec essi ty of clos e coo per atio n wh en sha rin g a job wit h ano the r per son ma kes the act ual work quite different from conventional one-position jobs . However, to ensure a greater chance that the partnership will succeed, each person needs to know the strengths,weaknesses and preferences of his or her partner before applying for a position .Moreover, there must be a fair division of both routine tasks and interestingones .In sum, for a position to be job-shared well, the two individuals must be well matched and must treat each other asequals .(1)In what way is work sharing different from jobsharing?A. Work sharing requires more workinghours.B. Work sharing is aimed at creating more jobs.C. Work sharing provides a more satisfactory salary.D. Work sharing depends on the employer's decision.(2)According to Paragraph 4, young mothers preferred job sharing to conventional part-time workmainly because .A. they sought higher social statusB. they were over ideal working agesC. they had difficulty finding full-time jobsD. they had to take care of both work and family(3)In job sharing the partners should .A. enjoy equal social statusB. have similar work experienceC. keep in touch with each otherD. know each other very well(4)The main purpose of the passage is to .A. describe job sharing in generalB. discuss how to provide more jobsC. recommend job sharing to womenD. compare job sharing with work sharing25.DA Good Night's SleepSleep plays a vital role in good health and well-being throughout your life. While you're sleeping, your brain is forming new pathways to help you learn and remember information. Although we all know the best way of getting a good night's sleep, not all of us know the best way of getting it. A sleep expert, Phil Atherton, gave some top tips for getting the most out of the night, which will leave you ready for action in the morning.According to Phil Atherton, not eating a large meal before bedtime is important for getting a good night's sleep. The time difference between eating any food three hours before bed, as it will lower your blood sugar during sleep and help minimize damage from too much sugar floating around.It's also important to find ways to prepare your body for sleep. You can follow a routine like trying not to expose yourself to too much artificial light within 1 hour before bed, as your brain uses light to help set internal "body clock". Although it might seem unnatural to schedule your sleep, the purpose is to send a signal to your body and mind that it's time to sleep.Another way to prepare your body for sleep is to get into a relaxed state by taking a bath or listening to soft music. Both of them will help to take the minds off the daytime pressures.Having a suitable bed, especially a suitable mattress(床垫), is necessary for a good night's sleep. Sleep is apersonalized activity, and we all adopt different sleeping positions. Finding the mattress that suits you will reduce back pains that can result from a poor sleeping position. The bed should be four to six inches longer than its tallest user, allowing for space to move around.The recent research is pretty clear that a good night's sleep is a major component of good health. Since the start of the 21st century, studies have linked a lack of sleep to many diseases, such as diabetes and obesity. Taking action now will lead to long-term benefits for you and those around you.(1)What does the author intend to tell us in the passage?A. When to start a sound sleep.B. How to get a good night's sleep.C. What to do with sleep problems.D. Why to form a good habit of sleeping.(2)According to the author, before going to sleep, you'd better .A. free yourself from tensionB. check your blood sugarC. relieve your pain in the backD. record your biological clock(3)What does the underlined word "it" in Paragraph 2 refer to?A. Not eating food.B. Taking a meal.C. Not sleeping well.D. Having a good sleep.(4)Which of the following shows the organization of the passage?CP: Central Point P:Point Sp: Sub-point(次要点)C:ConclusionA. B.C. D.26. EAs computers become all the more popular in China, Chinese people are increasingly depending on computer keyboards to input Chinese characters. But if they use the computer too much, they may end up forgetting the exact strokes (笔画)of each Chinese character when writing on paper. Experts suggest people, especially students, write by hand more.Do you write by hand more or type more? In Beijing, students start using a computer as early as primary school. And computer dependence is more widely spread among university students. Almost all their assignment and essays are typed on a computer.All the students interviewed say they usually use a computer.It's faster and easier to correct if using a computer. And that's why computers are being applied more and more often to modern education. But when people are taking stock in computers increasingly, problems appear."When I'm writing with a pen, I find I often can't remember how to write a character, though I feel I'm familiar with it.""I'm not in the mood to write when faced with a pen and paper."Many students don't feel this is something to worry about. Now that it's more convenient and efficient towrite on a computer, why bother to handwrite?Many educators think differently. Shi Liwei, headmaster of a famous primary school in the capital said, "Chinese characters enjoy both practical and aesthetic(审美的)value. But those characters typed with computer keyboards only maintain their practical value. All the artistic beauty of the characters is lost. And handwriting contains the writer's emotion. Through one's handwriting, people can get to know one's thinking and personality. Beautiful writing will give people a better first impression of them."To encourage students to handwrite more, many primary schools in Beijing have made writing classes compulsory (必修的)and in universities, some professors are asking students to turn in their homework andessays written by hand.(1)The underlined expression "taking stock in" in paragraph 4 probably means .A. getting bored withB. getting dependent onC. becoming crazy aboutD. getting curiousabout(2)The students interviewed prefer to write using a computer mainly because .A. computers have become a trend and fashion in ChinaB. they are usually asked to e-mail their homework and essaysC. they find it not easy to remember how to write a characterD. they can correct the mistakes they make quickly and conveniently(3)Which of the following statement is NOT true of the advantage of handwriting?A. Handwriting contains the writer’s emotions.B. Chinese characters enjoy both practical and aesthetic value.C. Handwriting can impress people well and build one's self-confidence.D. The writer's thinking and personality are shown in his or her handwriting.(4)Which of the following can best serve as the title of the passage?A. To Type or to Handwrite?B. The Importance of Handwriting and TypingC. Writing by Computer Will Replace Writing by HandD. Practical and Aesthetic Value of Chinese Characters七选五27. SelfieSocial media and the mobile web have given rise to a strange phenomenon called the selfie. But not everyone is familiar with the term, so here's a brief definition. 1 Everyone takes selfies, but the younger crowd seems to be especially involved in the trend.Some selfies are extreme close-ups, other show part of an arm held straight outward and a few of the greatones even feature the subject standing in front of a bathroom mirror so that they can get a full body shot of their reflection. 2 Since social media is the driving force of most selfie activity, younger kids interested in staying connected to their friends, boyfriends, girlfriends, etc. are more active in sharing selfies on a regular basis.Who knows what kind of psychological factors drive any specific person to take a selfies and upload it to asocial networking site.3Here's one. Not only are young people plugged into the web at all times, but they also have more self-esteem issues---and many of these teens or college kids might upload selfies to deal with their own self- consciousness. 4 When you feel good or look good about yourself, it's far too easy to reach for you phone and document it all through one or several selfies. Kids who are connected on a social network to someone they admire may be more driven to upload attractive selfies as a way to seek attention, especially if they're too shy to do it in person.Besides, there are people who are bored at work, bored at school, etc. So they will take selfies because they have nothing else better to do. Last but not least, social media is about being social! If that means uploading as many selfies as possible, then so be it. 5 They just do it because they like to do it, it's fun, and it’s a coolway to sort of document your ownlife.A. Some people don't need a real reason to do it.B. There's so much more meaning behind why we do it.C. It's about getting attention from as many people as possible.D. There are lots of selfie styles, and these are some of the most common.E. Selfie is a picture of yourself, usually shared on any social network website.F. What's more, it's human nature to want to show off your own great achievement.G. Everyone's own situation is different, but here are some of the most common theories.语法填空28. 请根据情态动词、虚拟语气、状语从句及名词性从句的基本用法进行填空。

Romances of this period (29) _________(include) English Gothic novels like The Castle of Otranto by Horace Walpole.What exactly is a twentieth-century romance ? Does it have any relationship with the lively, popular novels written today, with their fantastic plots of love affairs? Or did the playwright Oscar Wilde have it right in The Picture of Dorian Gray: “ When one is in love, one always begins by deceiving (30) _________, and one always ends by deceiving others. That is what the world calls a romance.”Section B(10×1=10分)Directions: Complete the following passage by using the words in the box. Each word can be used only once. Note that there is one word more than you need.A.astonishinglyB. surroundingC. collapseD. unnoticedE. interruptedF. previouslyG. congratulateH. predictionsI. potential J. producing K. propertiesIn the wake of the historic announcement of the discovery of gravitational waves on February 11, 2016 by the Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory (LIGO), British physicist and black hole theorist Stephen Hawking was quick to ____31___ the US-led collaboration, sharing his excitement for the historic news.According to Hawking, these results confirm several very important ____32___ of Einstein’s theory of general relativity and it also confirms the existence of gravitational waves directly.As is becoming clear, the direct detection of these ripples in space time not only confirms Einstein’s famous theory of general theory but it also opens our eyes to a(n) _33________ “dark” universe. Astronomers employ the electromagnetic spectrum(电磁光谱)to study the universe, but objects that do not radiate in the electromagnetic spectrum will go ___34____. But now we know how to detect gravitational waves, which can help us detect and study some of the most energetic cosmic phenomena.“Gravitational waves provide a completely new way of looking at the universe and the ability to detect them has the ___35___ to revolutionize astronomy” said Hawking. “The discovery is the first observation of black holes merging. The observed __36____ of this system are consistent with predictions about black holes that I made in 1970 in Cambridge.”However, this discovery also presents a puzzle for astrophysicists. The mass of each of the black holes are larger than expected for those formed by the gravitational __37_____ of a star---so how did both of these black holes become so massive?This question touches on one of the biggest mysteries ___38___ black hole evolution. Currently, astronomers are having a hard time understanding how black holes grow to be so massive. On the one end of the scale, there are “stellar mass(恒星质量)” black holes that form immediately after a massive star explodes, ___39____ an extremely bright light. And we also have an abundance of evidence for the existence of the super-massive that live in the centers of most galaxies. There is a disconnect, however. If black holes grow by merging and consuming stellar matter, there should be evidence of black holes of all sizes, but “intermediate mass” black holes and black holes of a few dozen solar masses are ____40____ rare, throwing some black holes evolution theories into doubt.One thing is clear, however. This is the first time that we’v e acquired direct evidence of a black hole merger. So it’s good to know we’re on the right track.III. Reading ComprehensionSection A(15×1=15分)Directions: For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A, B, C and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.Cowboy or spaceman ? A dilemma for a children’s party, perhaps. But also a question for economists, argued Kenneth Boulding, in an essay published in 1966. We have run our 41 , he warne d, like cowboys on the open grassland: taking and using the world’s resources,42 ____ that more lies over the horizon. But the Earth is 43 a grassland than a spaceship---a closed system, alone in space, carrying exhaustible supplies. We need, said Boulding, an economics that takes seriously the idea of environmental 44 . In the half century since his essay, a new movement has responded to his challenge. “Ecological economists,” as they call themselves, want to 45 __ its aims and assumptions. What do they say -- and will their ideas take off?To its 46 , ecological economics is neither ecology nor economics, but a mix of both. Their starting point is to recognize that the human economy is part of the natural world. Our environment, they note, is both a source of resources and a sink for wastes. But it is 47 in traditional textbooks, where neat diagrams trace the flows between firms, households and the government as though nature did not exist. That is a huge mistake.There are two ways our economies can grow, ecological economists point out: through technological change, or through maximum use of resources. Only the 48 , they say, is worth having. They are suspicious of GDP (gross domestic product), a simple 49 which does not take into account resource exhaustion, unpaid work and countless other factors.50 , they advocate more holistic approaches, such as GPI (genuine progress indicator),a composite(复合的)index that include things like the cost of pollution, deforestation and car accidents. While GDP has kept growing, global GPI per person 51 in 1978: by destroying our environment, we are making ourselves poorer, not richer. The solution, according to experts, lies in a “steady-state” economy, where the use of materials and energy is held 52 .Mainstream economists are not 53 . GPI, they point out, is a subjective standard. And talk of limits to growth has had a bad press since the days of Thomas Malthus, who predicted in the 18th century, wrongly, that overpopulation would lead to famine. Human beings find solutions to some of the most annoying problems. But ecological economists 54 self-satisfaction. In 2009, a paper in Nature argued that human activity is already 55 safe planetary boundaries on issues such as biodiversity and climate change. That suggests ecologist economists are at least asking some important questions, even if their answers turn out to be wrong.41. A. grassland B. nation C. economy D. spaceship42.

Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.(A)Every April I am troubled by the same concern -- that spring might not occur this year. The landscape looks dull, with hills, sky and forest appearing gray. My spirits ebb, as they did during an April snowfall when I first came to Maine 15 years ago. "Just wait," a neighbor advised. "You'll wake up one morning and spring will just be here."And look, on May 3 that year I awoke to a green so amazing as to be almost electric, as if spring were simply a matter of flipping a switch. Hills, sky and forest revealed their purples, blues and green. Leaves had unfolded and daffodils were fighting their way heavenward.Then there was the old apple tree. It sits on an undeveloped lot in my neighborhood. It belongs to no one and therefore to everyone. The tree's dark twisted branches stretch out in unpruned(未经修剪的)abandon. Each spring it blossoms so freely that the air becomes filled with the scent of apple.Until last year, I thought I was the only one aware of this tree. And then one day, in a bit of spring madness, I set out with pruner to remove a few disorderly branches. No sooner had I arrived under the tree than neighbors opened their windows and stepped onto their porches. These were people I barely knew and seldom spoke to, but it was as if I had come uninvited into their personal gardens.My mobile-home neighbor was the first to speak."You're not cutting it down, are you?" she asked anxiously. Another neighbor frowned as I cut off a branch. "Don't kill it, now," he warned. Soon half the neighborhood had joined me under the apple tree. It struck me that I had lived there for five years and only now was learning these people's names, what they did for a living and how they passed the winter. It was as if the old apple tree was gathering us under its branches for the purpose of both acquaintanceship and shared wonder. I couldn't help recalling Robert Frost's words:The trees that have it in their pent-up budsTo darken nature and be summer woodsOne thaw led to another. Just the other day I saw one of my neighbors at the local store. He remarked how this recent winter had been especially long and complained of not having seen or spoken at length to anyone in our neighborhood. And then, he looked at me and said, "We need to prune that apple tree again."56. By saying that “my spirits ebb” (Para. 1), the author means that _________________.A.he feels relievedB. he feels blueC. he is surprisedD. he is tired57. The apple tree mentioned in the passage is most likely to _________________.A. be regarded as a delight in the neighborhoodB. have been abandoned by its original ownerC. have been neglected by everyone in the communityD. be appealing only to the author58. In Para. 4, “neighbors opened their windows and stepped onto their porches” probably because ___________________________.A.they were surprised that someone unknown was pruning the treeB.they wanted to prevent the author from pruning the treeC.they were concerned about the safety of the treeD.they wanted to get to know the author59. It can be inferred that the author’s neighbor mentioned in the last paragraph most cared about _______________.A.when spring would arriveB. how to pass the long winterC. the neighborhood gatheringD. the pruning of the apple tree(B)Mount Cook National Park is home of the highest mountains and the longest glaciers. It is alpine(高山) in the purest sense---with skyscraping peaks, glaciers and permanent snow fields, all set under a star-studded sky.Key HighlightsAlthough it includes 23 peaks over 3,000 metres high, this park is very accessible. State Highway 80 leads to Mt Cook Village which is situated beside scenicLake Pukaki and provides a comfortable base for alpine activities. Far from city lights, the stargazing here is magnificent—Aoraki Mount Cook National Park formsthe majority of New Zealand's only International Dark Sky Reserve.Mountaineers regard the area to be the best climbing region, while less skilled adventurers find plenty of satisfaction with the mountain walks that lead to alpine tarns, herb fields and spectacular glacier views. Encounters with cheeky kea (mountain parrots) are part of the fun.Key ActivitiesMountain walksThere are 10 short walks beginning near the village. All tracks are formed andwell marked. The Red Tarns Track, Kea Point and the Hooker Valley Track each take around two hours return. For more experienced alpine hikers, there are three mountainpass routes—over the Mueller, Copland and Ball passes.Glacier viewing and skiingHelicopters and ski-planes provide access to the park's fabulous glaciers. The Tasman Glacier is an excellent choice for intermediate skiers, while the Murchison, Darwin and Bonney glaciers promise excitement for advanced skiers. From Octoberuntil May, you can explore the Tasman Glacier's terminal lake by boat.MountaineeringClimbing Mount Cook remains the ultimate challenge, but there are many other peaks to tempt experienced climbers. Tasman, Malte Brun, Elie de Beaumont, Seftonand La Perouse are quite popular..Key Tips●Climbers don't require permits, but are requested to complete a trip intentions form.●Local guides are available for climbing, walking and glacier skiing.●Winter climbing is an extreme sport—only recommended for well-prepared, experienced mountaineers.●The weather can change very suddenly—be prepared for heavy rainfall, snowand/or high winds.●The park has an airport serving domestic commercial flights and scenic flight operators.60. Which is one of the characteristics of Mount Cook National Park?A. It is alpine in the purest sense and hard to reach.B. It provides star-shining night skies for visitors.C. It attracts less skilled climbers to all alpine activities.D. It guarantees visitors a sight of cheeky kea.61. Mike is an experienced adventurer and may find ________ the most exciting.A. Mountaineering on Elie de BeaumontB. Mountain walks via Hooker Valley TrackC. Skiing on Tasman GlacierD. Climbing Mount Cook62. If you are a visitor to the park, you should ________.A. properly evaluate your own experience and skillB. get your permit prepared before you start to climbC. hire local guides to help you to train for climbingD. avoid exploring glaciers in winter(C)How many really suffer as a result of labor market problems? This is one of the most critical yet debatable social policy questions.In many ways, our social statistics overstate the degree of hardship. Unemployment does not have the same horrible con sequences today as it did in the 1930’s when most of the unemployed were primary breadwinners, when income and earnings were usually much closer to the margin of survival, and when there were fewer effective social programs for those failing in the labor market. Increasing wealth, the rise of families with more than one wage earner, the growing dominance of secondary earners among the unemployed and improved social welfare protection have unquestionably relieved the consequences of joblessness. Earnings and income data also overestimate the scale of hardship. Among themillions with hourly earnings at or below the minimum wage level, the majority are from multiple-earner, relatively well-off families. Most of those counted by the poverty statistics are elderly or handicapped or have family responsibilities which keep them out of the labor force, so the poverty statistics are by no means an accurate indicator of labor market problems.Yet there are also many ways our social statistics underestimate the degree of labor-market-related hardship. The unemployment counts exclude the millions of fully employed workers whose wages are so low that their families remain in poverty. Low wages and repeated or long-time unemployment frequently interact to weaken the capacity for self-support. Since the number experiencing joblessness at some time during the year is several times that unemployed in any month, those who suffer as a result of forced idleness can equal or exceed average annual unemployment, even though only a minority of the jobless in any month really suffer. For every person counted in the monthly unemployment totals, there is another working part-time because of the inability to find full-time work, or else outside the labor force but wanting a job. Finally, income transfers in our country have always focused on the elderly, disabled, and dependent, neglecting the needs of the working poor, so that the dramatic expansion of cash and non-cash transfers does not necessarily mean that those failing in the labor market are adequately protected.As a result of such conflicting evidence, it is uncertain whether those suffering seriously as a result of labor market problems number in the hundreds of thousands or the tens of millions, and, hence, whether high levels of joblessness can be tolerated or must be counteracted(抵消)by job creation and economic stimulation. There is only one area of agreement in this debate—that the existing poverty, employment, and earnings statistics are inadequate for one of their primary applications, measuring the consequences of labor market problems.63. In Paragraph 2, t he author contrasts the 1930’s with the present in order to show that_____________.A. more people were unemployed in the 1930’sB. unemployment is more intolerable todayC. social programs are more in need nowD. income level has increased since the 1930’s64.Which of the following is true according to the passage?A.A majority of low-wage workers receive earnings from more than one job.B.Repetition of short-term unemployment mainly contributes to people’s loss of working capacity.C. Many unemployed people are from families where other members are working.D. Labor market hardship is understated because fewer individuals are jobless than counted.65.It can be inferred from the passage that the effect of income transfers is often not felt by _________________.A. those doing a low-paid, part-time jobB. children in single-earner familiesC. workers who have just retiredD. full-time workers who become unemployed66. Which of the following is the principal topic of the passage?A. What causes labor market problems that result in suffering.B. Why income statistics are imprecise in measuring degrees of poverty.C. When poverty, employment, and earnings figures agree with each other.D. How statistics give an unclear picture of the labor-market-related suffering.Section C(4×2=8分)Directions: Read the following passage. Fill in each blank with a proper sentence given in the box. Each sentence can be used only once. Note that there are two more sentences than you need.A. Even being good at getting others to fight most efficiently is not being civilized.B. Most people believe those who have conquered the most nations are the greatest.C. However, every year conflicts between countries and nations still claim thousandsof lives.D. And not only has it won, but also because it has won, it has been in the right.E. So there has been little time to learn in, but there will be oceans of time in which tolearn better.F. People don’t fight and kill each other in the streets, but nations still behave like savages.Most of the people who appear most often and most gloriously in the history books are great conquerors and generals, while the people who really helped civilization forward are often never mentioned. We do not know who first set a broken leg, or launched a seagoing boat, or calculated the length of the year but we know all about the killers and destroyers. People think so much of them that on all the highest pillars in the great cities of the world you will find the figure of a conqueror or a general. ____67_________It is possible they are, but they are not the most civilized. Animals fight, so do savages; so to be good at fighting is to be good in the way an animal or a savage is good, but it is not to be civilized. ____68_______. People fight to settle quarrels. Fighting means killing, and civilized peoples ought to be able to find some ways of settling their disputes other than by seeing which side can kill off greater number of the other side, and then saying that the side which has killed most has won. ___69______. For that is what going to war means; it means power is right.This is what the story of mankind has been like. But we must not expect too much. After all, the race of men has only just started. From the point of view of evolution, human beingsare very young indeed, babies of a few months old. Scientists assume that there has been life of some sort on the earth for about twelve hundred million years; but there have been men for only one million years, and there has been civilized men for about eight thousand years.____70_____. Taking man’s civilized past at about seven or eight hours, we may estimate his future at about one hundred thousand years. Thus mankind is only at the beginning of its whole a pretty beastly business, a business of fighting and killing. We must not expect even civilized peoples not to have done these things. All we can ask is that they will sometimes have done something else.第II卷(共50分)I.Summary (10分)Directions: Reading the following passage. Summarize the main idea and the main point(s) of the passage with no more than 60 words. Use your own words as far as possible.It's not piano lessons or dance classes. Nowadays, the biggest extra-curricular activity is going to a tutor. "I spend about 800 Canadian dollars a month on tutors. It's costly," says Pat, a mother in Canada. However, she adds, "after finding out half my daughter's class had tutors, I felt like my child was going to fall behind because everyone else seemed to be ahead"Shelley, a mother of three, also has tutors constantly coming in and out of her home. "When I used to sit down with my children, it was hard to get them focused. I was always yelling. When I got a tutor once a week, they became focused for one entire hour and could get most of their homework done."Tutoring isn't simply a private school phenomenon. Nor is it geared only toward lower-achieving students. In Canada alone, seven percent of high school students reported using a tutor in 2010. That increased to 15 percent last year.Overall, parents hire tutors because they are worried schools are not meeting their expectations, but there is also a cultural shift. A special value is placed on education in Asia, where tutoring is viewed as an extension of the school day. As a large number of Asians emigrated to the West over the recent years, their attitudes towards education have had an impact.Another reason for the growth in business is parental frustration and their packed schedules. "A lot of parents just don’t have time to help their children with homework," says Julie Diamond, president of an American tutoring company. "Others couldn't help their children after Grade 3."There has been a shift in the attitudes, too. "Children used to get bullied (欺侮) for having a tutor," Diamond says. "Now it's becoming the norm to have one."Children don't seem to mind that they have a tutor. One parent feels surprised that so many of her child’s classmates have tutors. "For the amount we pay in tuition, they should have as much extra help as they need," she says. Still, she’s now thinking of getting a tutor. Why? Her daughter has actually asked for one.II.

Groups of about a dozen students each, led by an experienced guide, will go on ten-day camping trips to the m ountains to study the plants and animals that grow and live there.Students carry their own things, which includes sleeping bags, warm clothing, food and water, and other useful tools. And what do the students do all day? Well, as soon as the sun comes up, they eat breakfast and start climbing up the mountain trail to the next campground, which is five to ten miles away. As the students take notes, the guide points out different plants and animals alongside the trail. The climb is usually over by early afternoon, so the group spends the rest of the day resting or swimming in a mountain lake. Before dinner each night, they all come together and discuss the day’s activities.At the end of the course, the students write reports using the information they have collected.

School is also the place where you learn to get on well with people. But this is not always easy. What can you do if you just don’t like one of your c lassmates?If you discover that you have problems getting on with your classmat es or friends, the most important thing to learn is tolerance. Tolerance is the ability to realize and respect the differences in others. We can not change the way that other people do, so it is important to learn to live happily with them.Tolerance will make everyone get on better with each other. Getting to know someone may help you understand why they do things differently. Something different does not exactly mean that it is bad. Tolerance teaches us to keep a temperate and open mind.You need to remember an old saying, “Treat others how you want to be treated”. If you tolerate something, it does not mean that you have to like it. No one is asking you to change who you are or what you believe in. Tolerance just means that you should respect the differences in others and not try to make them change.It is important to practice tolerance, becaus e it will make everyone’s life easier. Learn to accept people for their different abilities and interests. The world is very different, and practicing tolerance in your own school and city can help make a difference.51.
