Also, I’ll try to balance my study and exercise so that I can achieve my dream with a healthy body.Best wishes!Yours,Li Hua听力材料：Text 1M: That's a nice bike.

He told me it was a bargain. Some ba rgain! The roof leaked and the pumps didn’t work. The front steps were broken and the back door had no lock on it. It needed to be painted both inside and outside. It was in terrible condition.“What do you think?” the agent asked.“It isn’t exactly what I want,” I told him.“You are very difficult to please.” he said. “Perhaps you’d better build a house yourself.”。

I didn’t know initially the baby was in danger and there wa s an AMBER Alert,” Blevin said.Even though everything appeared pretty normal, Blevin’s insti ncts told him something was wrong. After parking his car, a lo cal woman walked over and confirmed his suspicions. The lad y told him quietly, “Help me save this baby.” She said, “You h ave to save this baby.

The passage is most likely to be taken from ________．A. a news reportB. a nature magazineC. a history bookD.a learning websiteCIn fairy tales, it's usually the princess that needs p rotecting. At Google in Silicon Valley, the princess is the one defending the castle. Parisa Tabriz is a 31-year-old with perhaps the most unique job title in engineering- “Go ogle Security Princess”. Her job is to hack into the most popul ar web browser on the planet, trying to find weaknesses in the system before the “black hats” do. To defeat Google's attack ers, must firstly think like them.'s role has evolved dramatically in the eight years since she fir st started working at Google. Back then, the young graduate f rom was one of 50 security engineers---today there are over 500.Cybercrime（网络犯罪）has come a long way in the past decade - from the Nigerian P rince Scam to credit card theft. Tabriz's biggest concern now is the people who fi nd bugs in Google's software, and sell the information to gove rnments or criminals. To fight against this, the company has s et up a Vulnerability Rewards Program, paying anywhere fro m $100 to $ 20, 000 for reported mistakes.It's a world away from Tabriz's computer-free childhood home in . The daughter of an Iranian-American doctor father, and Polish-American nurse mother, had little contact with computers unti l she started studying engineering at college. Gaze across a li ne-up of Google security staff today and you'll find women like Ta briz are few and far between（稀少的）--- though in the last few years she has hired more female tech geniuses. She admits th ere's an obvious gender disequilibrium in Silicon Valley. Funnily enough, during training sessions first asks new collea gues to hack into not a computer, but a vending machine. Tab riz's job is as much about technological know-how（专门知识）as understanding the psychology of attackers.8. What can we learn about from the passage?A. She was the first female engineer at Google.B. She must think differently so as to defeat the attackers.C. Her job relates to not only technology but also psychology.D. Her frequent contact with computers in childhood benefits her a lot.9. Why has Google set up a Vulnerability Rewards Program?A. To protect Google against cybercrime.B. To monitor the normal operation of Google.C. To help the government locate the cybercriminals.D. To raise people's awareness of personal information safety .10. What does the underlined word “disequilibrium” in Paragra ph 4 refer to?A. Imbalance.B. Preference.C. Difference.D. Discrimination.11. Which of the following could be the best title of this passa ge?A. What leads to cybercrimeB. The “Security Princess” who guards GoogleC. Measures taken by Google to protect its usersD. How to become an excellent security engineerDI READ mostly fiction before I was introduced to CaMalcolm Gladwell's work.In his TED talk called "Choice, Happiness, an d Spaghetti Sauce "，he used the examples of Pepsi and spaghetti sauce to argue t hat giving people choices makes them happy. If I had only he ard his conclusion statement and missed the evidence that he employed，I would have been wondering how he could argue such an int eresting point. But he structured his argument like a detective story, with each puzzle piece contributing to the conclusion. Fascinated,I borrowed his book Outliers: The Story of Succes s from the library. Each chapter had its own story and argume nt,and all of the arguments were about factors that contribute d to an individual' s success in the world.The depth of his research was amazing. In the first chapter,he analyzed the reasons behind the crash of Korean Air Flight 8 01 in 1997，which killed more than 220 people. The disaster took place pa rtly because the co-pilot didn't point out the mistakes that the pilot was making. InSouth Korea，it' s disrespectful to disagree with higher ups even if they are doing something wrong.Perhaps most interesting of all，Gladwell explained why Asians are so good at math. He said Asians get an advantage when they learn how to count becau se their language has fewer syllables (音节) and makes numbers easier to remember.But Gladwell is mostly interested in answering my favorite que stion，"Why?” And that’s exactly why I love his works. After reading Outliers: The Story of Success and other books like it，I found myself questioning my commonly-accepted beliefs much more often. After all，why should we take anything for granted?12. Why does the author write this article?A.To promote some of Gladwell’s books.B.To introduce Gladwell and his books.C. To show how Gladwell did research for his books.D. To explain why he enjoys Gladwell’s books.13. How did the author feel about Gladwell’s TED talk?A.Surprising but persuasive.B. Refreshing but puzzling.C. Interesting but doubtful.D. Funny but conclus ive.14. What can we know from the passage?A.Eating spaghetti sauce can make you happy.B. Carelessness caused the Korean air crash in 1997.C.Fewer syllables give Asians an advantage in learning math.D.The Story of Success is about Gladwell’s personal success.15. What really makes the author fall in love with Gladwell’s works?A. His strong arguments. C. His amazing research.B. His detective-like stories. D. His questioning spirit.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，共1 0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。

2016～2017学年度10月份月考高三英语试卷考试时间100分钟试题分数150卷I第一部分：听力略第二部分：阅读理解（共2 节，满分40分）第一节（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分）ATom goes everywhere with Catherine Green, a 54-year-old secretary. He moves around her office at work and goes shopping with her. "Most people don't seem to mind Tom," says Catherine, who thinks he is wonderful. "He's my fourth child," she says. She may think of him and treat him that way as her son. He moves around buying his food, paying his health bills and his taxes, but in fact Tom is a dog.Catherine and Tom live in Sweden, a country where everyone is expected to lead an orderly life according to rules laid down by the government, which also provides a high level of care for its people. This level of care costs money.People in Sweden pay taxes on everything, so aren't surprised to find that owning a dog means more taxes. Some people are paying as much as 500 Swedish kronor in taxes a year for the right to keep their dog, which is spent by the government on dog hospitals and sometimes medical treatment for a dog that falls ill. However, most such treatment is expensive, so owners often decide to offer health and even life premium for their dog.In Sweden dog owners must pay for any damage their dog does. A Swedish Kennel Club official explains what this means: if your dog runs out on the road and gets hit by a passing car，you, as the owner, have to pay for any damage done to the car, even if your dog has been killed in the accident.21. Catherine pays taxes for Tom because .A. Tom follows her everywhereB. Tom is her childC. Tom is her dogD. Tom often falls ill22. The money paid as dog taxes is used to .A. keep a high level of care for the peopleB. pay for damage done by dogsC. provide medical care for dogsD. buy insurance for dog owners23. The underlined world "premium" possibly means .A. payment for risksB. medical checkC. entertainment expenseD. protection fee24. If a dog causes a car accident and gets killed, who should pay for the damage done to the car?A. The owner of the car.B. The owner of the dog.C. The insurance company.D. The government.BParents will do anything for their children. Whether it would be the food, clothes, or the place they live in, parents will always make sure their children have the best of everything. One of the biggest concerns that parents currently have is educating their children. They are faced with lots of difficulties when it comes to education for their young ones. Choices include private school, charter school, public school or home schooling.Fortunately for parents，there are a variety of different strategies that they can take in order to increase their child’s overall intelligence. According to Ross A. Thompson, PhD, professor of psychology at the University of Califo rnia at Davis, a child’s brain will actually reach 90% of its full size by the time they start kindergarten.Researchers at Northwestern University in Chicago concluded that playing a musical instrument directly affected the brain stem, the lower section of the brain. Moreover, children that learn an instrument at an early age tend to continue it when they are older. And numerous studies show that a well balanced meal is essential for a child’s mental as well as physical health. Some other researchers recommended that a second language should be taught when children are in preschool. They state that three to four years of age is the perfect time and that any age under four would work perfectly well for a child’s brain development.The average child will learn how to read between kindergarten and second grade. Many parents can give their children a jump start by teaching them to read before they start school. Children could have an adequate background of the alphabet and sounds of words before attending school. This can be done by simply reading to them whenever you want. The more comfortable they get, the easier the process will be.25.From the first paragraph, we can infer that .A. parents find it hard to satisfy their kids’ various demandsB. parents meet a new challenge when raising their kidsC. parents have more choices in offering education to their kidsD. parents get actively involved in the process of their kids’ growth26.What suggestion may the researchers in the passage make?A. To train kids as early as possible.B. To try as many means as possible.C. To help kids develop as fully as possible.D. To use as many available resources as possible.27.What is the third paragraph mainly about?A. The proper time to teach children to learn languages.B. The effective ways to help develop children’s brains.C. The vital factors to have a great effect on children’s health.D. The practical steps to arouse children’s interest in study.28.We can replace the words “jump start” in the last paragraph with.A. inspirationB. introductionC. suggestionD. promotionCWhen I was small and my grandmother died, I couldn't understand why I had no tears. But that night when my dad tried to cheer me up, my laughs turned into crying.So it came as no surprise to learn that researchers believe crying and laughing are controlled by the same part of the brain. Just as laughing has many health advantages, scientists are discovering that so does crying.Whatever helps us to reduce pressure is important to our emotional health, and crying seems to work well. One study found that 85 percent of women and 73 percent of men report feeling better after crying.Besides, tears attract help from other people. Researchers agree that when we cry, people around us become kinder and friendlier and they are more ready to provide support and comfort. Tears also enable us to understand our emotions better; sometimes we don't even know we're very sad until we cry. We learn about our emotions through crying, and then we can deal with them.Just as crying can be healthy, not crying---holding back tears of anger, pain or suffering---can be bad for physical health. Studies have shown that too much control of emotions can 1ead to high blood pressure, heart problems and some other illness. If you have a health problem, doctors will certainly not ask you to cry.

Power of TearsD. New Scientific DiscoveryDAs early as the mid-18th century, some people began raising doubts about Marco Polo’s travels. In 1995,historian Frances Wood argued in her book Did Marco Polo Go to China ? that the famous explorer from Venice never made it to pass the Black Sea. She noted that his travel journal left out the Great Wall of China, chopsticks and tea drinking among other details. Furthermore, Chinese documents from Polo’s day made no mention of the explorer and his men. Wood and other scholars have argued that Marco Polo based his tales of China on informationcollected from fellow trades who had actually been there. Last year, a team of Italian researchers became the latest to challenge Polo’s accounts(叙述). They said that evidence didn’t support his description of Kublai Khan’s Japanese invasions (侵略）.Now, however, research by Hans Ulrich Vogel of Germany’s Tubingen Un iversity might help prove Marco Polo was true. In a new book Marco Polo Was in China，the professor of Chinese history tries to prove that Marco Polo spoke the truth. He suggests, for example, that Polo didn’t include the Great Wall in his book because it only achieved its great importance in the Ming Dynasty several hundred years later. Vogel further explains that Chinese records from the 13th and 14th centuries avoided setting down visits from Westerners.Historians before him have touched on these issues. But Vogel also relies on another evidence:the explorer’s very detailed descriptions of currency and salt production in the Yuan Dynasty. According to Vogel, Polo documented these aspects of Mongol Chinese culture in greater detail than any other of his time. This is a hint (暗示) that Polo relied on his own powers of observation. Will we ever know whether Marco Polo traveled to China? Perhaps not, but the consequences of his real or fictional journey are still felt across the globe. One reader of The Travels of Marco Polo was Christopher Columbus, who stepped upon the New World while following his idol’s footsteps.33.France Wood doubted Marco Polo’s travel’s to China because his description.A. missed some important culture of ChinaB. covere d so much about traders’ lifeC. was full of obvious mistakesD. seemed less detailed34.Vogel’s trust on Marco Polo is based on the argument that .a. The Great Wall didn’t gain its importance thenb. Records in the Yuan Dynasty mentioned Poloc. Polo mentioned the currency and saltd. Polo’s other works are believablee. Polo recorded what he saw in great detailA. a, b, dB. a, c, dC. a, eD. b, c35.Which of the following shows the structure of the text? （P1为第一段，以此类推）A B C D第二节（共5小题;每小题2分，满分10分）In high school, it’s important to stay healthy. 36How can you study well if you’re sick?

AA common overbooking problem on a United Airlines flight on Sunday ended with a man being bloodied and dragged from his seat and an already troubled airline earning more bad press. How did it all go so wrong?Overbooking on flights happens all the time. Empty seats cost airlines money, so they offset(抵消) the number of passengers who miss flights by selling too many tickets. In this case, the problem arose because United decided at the last minute to fly four members of staff to a connection point and needed to bump four passengers to make way for them.When there’s an overbooking issue the first step is to offer an inducement to the passengers to take a later flight. On Sunday passengers were offered $400, a hotel room for the night, and a flight the following afternoon. When no-one took the offer, the amount was upped to $800. Still no-one bit, so a manager boarded the flight and informed passengers that four people would be selected to leave the flight.That selection is based on several fac tors, but frequent fliers and higher fare-paying passengers are given priority to stay aboard, a spokeswoman for United confirmed.A couple who were selected agreed to leave the plane voluntarily. A third passenger, reportedly the wife of the man who was forcibly removed, also agreed. The man, who said he was a doctor and had to see patients in the morning, refused. An airline manager told him that security would be called if he did not obey. their conversation ended with the man being yanked from his seat onto the floor and dragged off, blood visible on his face.United Airlines CEO said the airline would review the event and reach out to the passenger, but the spokeswoman could not confirm whether United was in touch with him yet.1. Why does overbooking on flights always occur?A. United bumped four passengers to spare seats for its staff.B. Airlines expect to earn as much money as possible.C. Airlines want to make up for a loss of empty seats.D. It happens by accident.2. What can we inferred about the selection mentioned in the text?A. People are selected at random by the computer.B. Frequent fliers will never be asked to leave.C. The selected doctor may be the low fare-paying passengers or not a frequent flier.D. The selected passengers will be offered no money.3. Which of the following statements about four passengers is true?A. Four people were directly selected to leave at first.B. The couple of the doctor agreed to leave voluntarily.C. The doctor was dragged off without any hurt.D. The doctor refused to leave because he had to see his patient next morning.4. What does the underlined part “reach out to” in Paragraph 6 refers to?A. Get in contact withB. Make up forC. Apologize toD. Team up withBThe days of having to remember your ID could soon be a thing of the past. The famous tourist town of Wuzhen, China, is now using facial recognition technology to act as its entry pass through the gates of the attraction. The system uses cameras to notice people as they approach the entry, and checks these against a database of registered visitors within a few seconds. The technology is thought to be up to 99.77 percent accurate and able to distinguish people better than a human.Wuzhen is a popular tourist town with visitors going there in large numbers to see its stunning river system and museums. Baidu, a web firm often referred to as “Chinese Google”, created the system. When people now check in to their accommodation, they will have their photo taken and uploaded to a central database upon leaving and re-entering the town, the system will re-check that they are still a guest at a hotel, before allowing them back in.The technology is being used to track the 5,000 visitors that stay in the town’s hotels every day. Yuanqing Lin, director of the Institute of deep Learning at Baidu, told The Verge, “With our technology, you don’t need to give your ID. When you are approaching a gate, it will take a photo of you and compare that photo to the database.” Wuzhen used to monitor its visitors using a ticket-entry system, but this could easily be abused. It wasdiscovered that some people were sharing their tickets to avoid paying.Baidu’s system is based on neural networks, which can process huge amounts of data--- more than one billion faces. As well as recognizing faces, the system can also discover facial movements, so it can’t be fooled by someone holding up a mask.Baidu is also using the software for employee entry at its Beijing headquarters.5. What can be learnt about the facial recognition technology from the passage?A. The technology could soon be a thing of the past.B. The technology can be over 99.77% accurate.C. The technology can match visitors’ faces with those in the databaseD. The technology is being used to track where the 5,000 visitors are going.6. Which of the following word can replace the underlined word “stunning” in paragraph 2?A. popularB. attractiveC. brilliantD. funny7. How does Wuzhen monitor its visitors now?A. By using facial recognition technologyB. By using a ticket-entry systemC. By using ID cardD. By using tickets8. What is the passage mainly about?A. Facial recognition is widely used in China.B. Baidu, a web firm, is using the recognition system.C. Chinese tourist town Wuzhen is using facial recognition.D. Wuzen is a popular tourist town with many visitors goingthere to see the system.CAbout three decades ago, China was known as the “Bicycle Kingdom”. But the two-wheeled approach of transport’s popularity began to fade, with many bikes soon replaced by their fuel-powered competitors.But recent months have seen a repopulality of the humble bike across China, with an increasing number of people choosing cycling instead of driving to schools, to workplaces or to do sightseeing. The introduction of bike-sharing schemes, pioneered by start-up company like Ofo and Mobike, has brought the trend to a new level. According to data shown by iResearch Consulting Group, the first week of this year saw 5.85 million active users of Mobike while Ofo had 1.4 million active users.People can unlock the shared bikes by simply using their smartphone. The bikes are equipped with GPS and can be left anywhere in public for the next user. They’re popular among many Chinese people as they provide an effective solution to the “last mile” problem, which refers to the final leg of a person’s journey.However, the schemes have also led to problems such as illegal parking, damage on purpose and theft. To deal with these problems, the company came up with the idea of encouraging people to return the bikes to stations by rewarding free time f or their next rides.9. Why did the two-wheeled approach of transport become less popular?A. Because China is no longer a bicycle kingdom.B. Because cycling is not convenient.C. Because fuel-powered competitors were replaced byriding.D. Because mostly driving took the place of cycling.10. What can we learn from the passage?A. The bike’s popularity began to fade.B. Only Ofo and Mobike creat ed the trend to a new level of using bikes.C. The shared bikes offer a useful approach to the final leg problem.D. The company rewarded some money and free time to the users.11. What is the best title of this passage?A. the new mode of humble bikesB. the development of humble bikesC. the advantages of humble bikesD. the issue of humble bikesDThere are often many assumptions made about young people aged 15 to 21, but only a few can be proved with hard evidence. Now, new research has been published to help people get a better idea of these misunderstood young people.According to an international survey in 2016, young people in emerging economies like China and India have a greater sense of hope about the future, compared with those living in Europe, North America and Australia.The survey was carried out between September a nd October by the Varkey Foundation, a UK-based non-profit organization. It surveyed 20,000 young people who were born between 1995 to 2001 in 20 countries. They were asked questions about their hopes, ambitions, personal views and community values.It was found that 53 percent of those questioned in China thought the world was becoming a better place –the highestpercentage among the countries surveyed. Some 93 percent of them also felt hopeful for the future because of advances in technology, such as in medicine, renewable energy and computing. Indian youth were the second most optimistic, with 49 percent taking a positive view of the world’s prospects.As for young people in China, what they fear most is the impact of climate change –some 82 percent of those who responded to the survey said so. Vikas Pota, chief executive of the Varkey Foundation, said it was encouraging that young people in China were aware how serious the problem of climate change is.“This is surely a hopeful development. The young population of China is more aware than anyone of the seriousness of the climate crisis –and will be pressing for change,” he told South China Morning Post. The overall survey showed a sense of optimism in the attitudes and opinions of the gen eration that is likely to shape the next few decades, according to Pota.“They are more likely to travel, to migrate across borders and to build friendships in other countries than any previous generation,” he said. “Global citizenship is not dead. It could just be getting started.”12. What can we infer from Paragraph 1?A. Young people often have better ideas.B. Young people are better than assumed.C. Young people are always misunderstood.D. Assumptions about young people are hard to prove.13. The survey shows us that _______.A. about half of the Chinese youth are positive about the future.B. 49% Indians take a positive view of the world’s prospects.C. Chinese youth are the most optimistic about the future.D. European youth have no hope for the future.1 4. What was Pota’s attitude towards Chinese youth?A. satisfiedB. criticalC. objectiveD. worried15. What’s the best title for the passage?A. Chinese youth misunderstoodB. Chinese youth encouragingC. Chinese youth pessimisticD. Chinese youth optimistic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。

My only companion was a dog called Philly which had survived the shipwreck. Memories of what happened were still fresh.The magnificence of the ship had given us all a false sense of security. As the first signs of the storm started, our captain announced it was nothing much, just another storm. Yet, he was wrong! The storm hit the ship so badly that large holes were made at the sides of the ship. As the freezing water started rushing in, our ship was consumedquickly by the dark water.My train of thought was disturbed by Philly licking my hand dearly. Are you hungry? I spoke my first words ever since the shipwreck occurred. Woof, woof! Barked Philly enthusiastically. At this moment, my stomach gave a loud growl, too. I could not remember when my last meal was, probably a ten-course dinner on the ship. As I had never fished before, I thought maybe I could try something simpler, like picking fruits. With Philly at my side, armed with a sharp branch, we walked into the forest on the island together. Suddenly I thought I heard noises. Could there be anyone else on this island? I wondered. As we were looking for fruit trees, we chanced upon one that bore yellow, juicy-looking fruit. Philly started barking-we had company. It was a dark-skinned woman, holding a sharp spear, dressed in fur and grass. I backed away from her, afraid that she would be aggressive. Then, I saw that she was trying to save us. Pointing her spear at the fruit tree, she shook her head strongly.I nodded at her to show I understood what she was saying. Signaling to us to follow her, she turned to walk along a small path that I had never noticed. At the end of the small path, there was a small village. Tears of joy filled my eyes.21．The writer had been left on the island because ________A．the captain had deserted him.B．he wanted to explore the island.C．his ship had crashed in the stormD．his ship had broken down in the shallow water.22．Which of the following statements is true about the dog Philly? ________A．He was friendly but aggressive.B．He was also a survival of the shipwreck.C．He had been brought to the ship by the writer.D．He was left alone while the writer went for food.23．The woman pointed her spear at the fruit tree intending to tell the writer that ________A．the fruits were not the best choice.B．the fruits were unfit for food.C．he was prohibited to pick the fruits.D．the fruit tree was dangerous.BWith more recognition than Halloween and less than Christmas, Valentine’s Day as an imported festival faces a dangerous situation in China, where it’s caught between forces of tradition and fashion. Valentine’s Day has a natural enemy in China. And it is not the Chinese equivalent, which falls on the seventh day of the seventh month on the lunar calendar, usually around half a year away from Feb. 14．It is the Spring Festival, also known as the Chinese New Year that will influence the Feast of Saint Valentine.The real disagreement between East and West probably took place over a century ago, when China’s door was forced open by Western powers and Chinese scholars supported westernization as a means to strengthen ournation’s ability to compete. The introduct ion of the solar calendar and Western measurements was both an acknowledgment of their influence and an effort to be accepted by the world order.For a full century, we have had two systems running in parallel. When it comes to the eventual outcome, practicality usually beats all other concerns. Laws can help, such as the three traditional festivals of Tomb Sweeping, Dragon Boat and Mid-Autumn gaining legal status in 2008 and giving every Chinese citizen a day off, but laws cannot push what people have no feelings for. So, the celebration or boycott of imported holidays or homegrown ones should be no cause for worry. If they are irrelevant, no social media will change the public’s mind; and if they are accepted, there must be a need which they happen to satisfy.Since we have no global Qin Shihuang to force one system on every country, we can always rely on a dual(双重) approach by which we share with the outside world on one hand but preserve our own ways of life on the other. 24．What does the author think about Valentine’s Day in present China? ________A．It meets with a natural enemy.B．It is better known than Christmas.C．It strongly attacks Chinese culture.D．It is more popular with young people.25．The underlined word “equivalent” in the first para graph refers to ________A．the Dragon-boat Festival.B．the Spring Festival.C．the Mid-autumn Festival.D．the Chinese Valentine’s Day26．According to the author, the leading factor to decide what to celebrate is ________A．current laws.B．people’s needs.C．public media.D．age-old tradition.27．The author believes that ________A．the conflict between the East and the West will last long.B．Chinese festivals are to be paid more attention to in years.C．both Chinese and foreign systems of festivals can co-exist in ChinaD．this cultural shock is normal and will be received by more people in the future.CInstagram is a fast, beautiful and fun way to share your life with friends and family. Take a picture or video, choose a filter to transform its look and feel, and then post to Instagram—it’s that easy. You can even share to Facebook, Twitter and more. It’s a new way to see the world. So many photos of food are contained on Instagram—now a pop-up diner in London is taking advantage of this new trend by letting people settle the bill for their meals simply by uploading photos of their dishes to social networks.I always thought people’s taking pictures of their food was kind of silly, but at this new pop-up restaurant in the UK, I’d probably do it too. “The Picture House”is the world’s first pay-by-photo restaurant. You order, click a photo of the food, share on Instagram and eat for free!The restaurant belongs to frozen food giant Birds Eye, who came up with the idea to cash in on people’s addiction with photographing food and sharing the pictures online. They conducted a survey and found out that more than half of the British population regularly took pictures of their meals. So they realized it was a better way to advertise their new dining range.The pop-up diner was open in SOHO, London for three days in May, and is now moving to other major UK cities. They serve two-course meals that customers don’t have to pay for, if they photo and Instagram it.The restaurant is a part of Birds Eye’s “Food for Life”campaign, a new marketing project that aims at changing the way people look at frozen food. “Taking photos of food enables people to show off and to share their mealtime moments—from the everyday to the special,” said marketing director Margaret Jobling.The reaction to the Picture House has been great so far. And the pay-by-picture concept has proven to be an effective way. Alternative payment methods are actually gaining popularity among a lot of businesses. Last year in a cafe in Germany customers pay by how much time they spend there, not by what they eat.28．From the description in the passage we can see Instagram is ________A．a restaurant in which meals are free.B．a new marketing strategy of a restaurant.C．the name of a company to collect food pictures.D．an application software to share photos or videos.29．What the Picture House does is actually ________A．an ad to expand its popularity.B．a reward to its regular customers.C．an effort to raise the price of their frozen food.D．a method trying to change British people’s type of dining.30．What can be inferred from the passage? ________A．The pay-by-picture concept has received a great reaction.B．Meals are free if you send your pictures to the Picture House.C．The pop-up diner was open in SOHO, London for three days in May.D．Taking and sharing photos of their meals has become a new trend in Britain.31．Which of the following can be the best title for the passage? ________A．Pay by Picture.B．The Picture House.C．No Picture, No Meal.D．New Dining Style.DHave you ever wondered that we parents are the true fighters in the college-admission wars? We are pushing our kids to get good grades, take SAT preparatory courses and build resumes so they can get into the college of our first choice. In our eyes, a degree from Stanford or Princeton is the ticket for life. We see our kids’ college background as something showing how well or how poorly we’ve raised them. But we don’t realize we are selfish. We think more about ourselves than the kids.It’s true getting into college has generally become tougher because the number of high school graduates has grown. We suffer great anxiety; we worry there won’t be enough honors to show off. Fearful parents urge their children to apply to more schools than ever. We hold the belief that graduates of best universities must enjoy more success because they get a better education. All that is seemingly acceptable—and mostly wrong.“We haven’t found any convincing evidence that a prestigious university（名牌大学）matters,” say s Ernest T. Pascarella of the University of Iowa, co-author of “How College Affects Students”, an 827-page report of hundreds of studies of the college experience.According to some studies, graduates of prestigious universities do earn much money. But even this seems like just a coincidence.Kids count more than their colleges. Getting into Yale may mean intelligence, talent and ambition. But there are many other things that are equally important. The reason: so many similar people go elsewhere. Getting into college isn’t life’s only competition. In the next competition, the results may change. Princeton economists Alan Krueger studied admissions to one top Ph. D．program. High scores on the GRE helped explain who got in; degrees of prestigious universities didn’t.So, parents, lighten up. America is a competitive society; our kids need to adjust to that but too much pushiness can be destructive. The very ambition we place on our children may get some into Harvard but may also set them up for disappointment. They may have been so accustomed to being on top that anything less disappoints them.32．Parents are the true fighters in the college-admission wars, probably because ________A．they make more preparations than their children.B．they focus on the results more than their children.C．they decide which university fits their children best.D．they think more about themselves than their children.33．T he writer believes that in the present USA ________A．a top college means a bright future.B．children suffer greater anxiety now than in the past.C．being admitted to college has become more and more difficult.D．children should apply to more schools than ever to enter a top college.34．What is the meaning behind the sentence “kids count more than their colleges”? ________A．Continuing education is more important to a person’s success.B．A person’s happiness should be valued more than their education.C．What kids learn at college cannot match job market requirements.D．Kids’ actual abilities are more important than their college background.35．What does Krueger’s study suggest? ________A．Getting into Ph.D. Programs may be more competitive than getting into college.B．Degrees of prestigious universities do not guarantee entry to graduate programs.C．Graduates from prestigious universities do not care much about their GRE scores.D．Connections built in prestigious universities may be kept long after graduation.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.选项中有两项为多余选项.The Internet has opened up a whole new on-line world for us to meet, chat and go where we've never been before. But just as in face-to-face communication, there are some rules of behavior that should be followed when online. 36 . Imagine how you'd feel if you were in the other person's shoes. For anything you're about to send: ask yourself, "Would I say this to the person's face?" If the answer is no, rewrite and reread. Repeat the process till you feel sure that you'd feel comfortable saying the words to the person's face.If someone in the chat room is rude to you, your instinct is to fire back in the same manner. 37 . You should either ignore the person, or use your chat software to block their messages. If it was caused by a disagreement with another member, try to fix the situation by politely discussing it. Remember to respect the beliefs and opinions of others in the chat room.38 . Offer advice when asked by newcomers, as they may not be sure what to do or how to communicate. When someone makes a mistake whether it's a stupid question or an unnecessarily long answer be kind about it. If it's a small mistake, you may not need to say anything. Even if you feel strongly about, think twice before saying anything. Having good manners yourself doesn't give you license to correct everyone else. 39 . At the same time, if you find you are wrong be sure to correct yourself and apologize to those that you have offended.40 . The exception is that you know the person very well, and you are both comfortable with sharing personal information. Otherwise don't.A．But try not to do so.B．Everyone was new to the network once.C．If you decide to tell someone about a mistake, point it out politely.D．Some people speaking rudely or making mistakes online is natural and common.E．The basic rule is simple: treat others in the same way you would want to be treated.F．If you want to send short messages to others online, be sure to say something polite first.G．It is not good manners to ask others personal questions or inquire about their private affairs.第三部分英语知识运用（共两节,满分45分）第一节完形填空（共20小题;每小题1.5分,满分30分）阅读下面短文,掌握其大意,然后从41~60各题所给的四个选项（A.B.C和D）中,选出最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑.The hardest arithmetic to master is that which enables us to count our blessings.Eric Hoffer According to legend, a young man while walked in the desert came across a spring of delicious crystal-clear water.

A week have passed before I noticed it. Looking back on the things that happening last week, I found the life here full with happiness and interests. I can still remember the first day of the summer camp. I came to my bedroom by myself. When I opened a door, I saw a girl with short hair seating in a chair with a book in her hand. She must be a quiet girl who liked reading, I thought myself at the time. After we said hello to each other, other girl came in with a big noise. Her name was Rose. She was so outgoing and humor that both Cherry and I couldn’t help laughing at her words. Then we had studied and had meals together, and became good friends. I can’t forget the day when we spent together no matter where we are in the future.第二节书面表达(满分25分)假定你是李华,你的好朋友Judy因考试发挥失常,导致成绩不理想而情绪低落.请你给他写封信表示安慰,要点如下:1．对她目前状况表示理解;2．建议她找出失常的原因并吸取教训;3．鼓励她树立信心,争取下次考出好成绩.注意:1．词数100左右;2．可以适当增加细节,以使行文连贯;3．开头已给出,不计入总词数.Dear Judy,I’m sorry to hear that you didn’t do well in your exam and_________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________________________Yours,Li Hua答案1~5．AABCB 6~10．CAACB 11~15．CBBCA 16~20．ABACB21~25．CBBAD 26~30．BCDAD 31~35．ABCDB 36~40．EABCG41~45．CBDAB 46~50．CDABC 51~55．BBCDA 56~60．BCADC 61．stuck62．by63．or64．where65．to complain66．unpleasantness67．happier68．stopped69．what70．Simply71．have→has72．happening→happened73．with→of74．door前面的a→the75．seating→seated/sitting76．thought 后加to77．第二个other→another78．humor→humorous79．去掉we后的had80．when→that/which 或去掉whenDear Judy,I’m sorry to hear that you didn’t do well in your exam and that you are depressed and worried about your study.

those，saving 300．That got me thinking about all our pointless expenses in life．With a promise that we'd stop if it was killing us，I convinced the family to take the leap into frugality （节俭）The rules were that we would buy nothing for 30days except absolutely essentials．Our adventure began with a great start．By 9am．，my wife，Ruth，had already made cakes from old strawberries and picked flowers I didn't even know we had in the garden．I cleared the car byhand for the first time for years．I read and returned the neighbor's newspaper before he woke up．Total spending on the first day：$0．As days turned into weeks，we became so proficient （熟练的）at living frugally．We started riding our bikes to save gas．My child's finger painting was recycled as gift wrap for the home﹣made presents．We started to use an Internet application like Skype for free phone calls and ask neighbors with gardens for extra vegetables and herbs．In the end，we saved more than 2000 by not spending for a month．When we began，I imagined we would rush out the moment we were done and buy a lot of things in the super﹣market，then maybe hit the mall or go to the movies．25．We can infer from the passage that before that very afternoon，the familyA．had had higher incomeB．had had a good habit of saving moneyC．hadn't realized they would have met financial problemsD．had often spent money without thinking26．The end of the story tells the readers that the familyA．couldn't stand the life of frugalityB．stopped halfwayC．would make up for missing the junk after the"30 days"D．succeeded in saving in the end27．This passage is mainly aboutA．how a family managed their daily lifeB．a family's no﹣buying tryC．how a new idea came upD．a family's way of solving life problems．28．Being less than perfectly well﹣dressed in a business setting can result in a feeling of great discomfort that may well require treatment to eliminate （remove）．And the sad truth is that"clothing mismatches"on the job can ruin the day of the person who is wearing the inappropriate attire（着装）﹣﹣and the people with whom he or she comes in contact．Offices vary when it comes to dress codes．Some businesses have very high standards for their employees and set strict guidelines for office attire，while others maintain a more relaxed attitude．However，it is always important to remember that no matter what your company's attitude is regarding what you wear，you are working in a business environment and you should dress properly．Certain items may be more appropriate for evening wear than for a business meeting，just as shorts and a T﹣shirt are better suited for the beach than for an office environment．Your attire should reflect both your environment and your position．A senior vice president has a different image to maintain than that of a secretary or sales assistant．Like it or not，you will be judged by your personal appearance．This is never more apparent than on"dress﹣down days"，when what you wear can say more about you than any business suit ever could．In fact，people will pay more attention to what you wear on dress﹣down days than on"business professional"days．Thus，when dressing in"business casual"clothes，try to put some good taste into your wardrobe choices，and recognize that the"real"definition of business casual is to dress just one notch（等级）down from what you would normally wear of business﹣professional attire days．Remember，there are borders between your career and our social life．You should dress one way for play and another way when you mean business．Always ask yourself where you are going and how other people will be dressed when you get there．Is the final destination the opera，the beach，or the office？Dress properly and you will discover the truth in the principle that clothes make the man﹣﹣and the woman．Unless you are sure what to wear，it pays to dress slightly traditionally than the situation demands．28．What is the passage mainly about？A．The differences between professional and casual dress．B．The relationship between career and social life．C．How to dress properly in a business setting．D．Dressing codes vary in different situations．29．Which of the following statements is true？A．Every company has strict rules regarding office dress．B．You should dress according to the business setting even when there are no fixed rules C．You can wear whatever you like if your company doesn't have high standards for it．D．In companies with relaxed rules on office dress，you can't spot a manager among others．30．Which statement best describes"dress down days"？A．People are usually more careful about what they wear on dress﹣down days．B．People's clothes on dress﹣down days don't receive much attentionC．We can't judge a person's taste by his clothes on dress﹣down daysD．On dress﹣down days，you can wear whatever you like．31．Which of the following is NOT the rule offered in the passage regarding business dress？A．Remember to ask others for advice when you don't know what to dress．B．Dress a bit traditionally if you are not sure what to wear．C．For a business meeting and a concert，you should dress differently．D．Think about how other guests will wear if you are invited to a dinner．32．As the labor market becomes more attractive，more companies are sending their employees to school．Fiat Chrysler Automobiles is the latest company to use tuition assistance for employees ﹣﹣which for decades has been a part of many business'benefits packages﹣﹣as part of a renewed effort to bring in and cultivate talent．And while the impact of such programs has yet to be fully assessed，many see it as a positive﹣﹣although gradual﹣movement．"For workers，it gives them a better opportunity for development，"says Colleen Flaherty Manchester，a professor．"For firms，they are able to recruit the type of employees who have value education and are less likely to turn over，and thus have a higher level of retention（保留）．"In all，56percent of US organizations offer undergraduate educational assistance while 52percent offer graduate assistance．Largely driving the trend are Millennials，who happen to be the fastest﹣growing people in the US workforce today and to whom the idea of tuition support from employers is especially appealing．Nearly 60percent of Millennials surveyed said they would choose a job with strong professional﹣development potential over one with regular pay raises．Employers are absolutely adapting to
