Liz PayneBThe freezing Northeast hasn‟t been a terribly fun place to spend time this winter, so when the chance came for a weekend to Sarasota, Florida, my bags were packed before you could say “sunshine”. I left for the land of warmth and vitamin C(维生素C), thinking of beaches and orange trees. When we touched down to blue skies and warm air, I sent up a small prayer of gratefulness. Swimming pools, wine tasting, and pink sunsets(at normal evening hours, not 4 in the afternoon) filled the weekend, but the best part-particularly to my taste, dulled by months of cold-weather root vegetables-was a 7 a.m. adventure to the Sarasota farmers‟ market that proved to be more than worth the early wake-up call.The market, which was founded in 1979, sets up its tents every Saturday from 7 am to 1 p.m, rain or shine, along North Lemon and State streets. Baskets of perfect red strawberries, the red-painted sides of the Java Dawg coffee truck; and most of all, the tomatoes: amazing, large, soft and round red tomatoes.Disappointed by many a broken, vine-ripened(蔓上成熟的) promise, I‟ve refused to buy winter tomatoes for years. No matter how attractive they look in the store, once I get them home they‟re unfailingly dry, hard, and tasteless. But I homed in, with uncertainty, on one particular table at the Brown‟s Grove Farm‟s stand, full of fresh and soft tomatoes the size of my fist. These were the real deal- and at that moment, I realized that the best part of Sarasota in winter was going to be eating things that back home in New York I wouldn‟t be experiencing again for months.Delighted as I was by the tomatoes in sight, my happiness deepened when I learned that Brown‟s Grove Farm is one of the suppliers for Jack Dusty, a newly opened restaurant at the Sarasota Ritz Carlton, where-luckily for me-I was planning to have dinner that very night. Without even seeing the menu, I knew I‟d be ordering every tomato on it.24. What did the author think of her winter life in New York?A. Exciting.B. Boring.C. Relaxing.D. Annoying.25. What made the author‟s getting up early worthwhile?A. Having a swim.B. Breathing in fresh air.C. Walking in the morning sun.D. Visiting a local farmer‟s market.26. What can we learn about tomatoes sold in New York in winter?A. They are soft.B. They look nice.C. They taste great.D. They are juicy.27. What was the author going to do that evening?A. Eat in a restaurant.B. Check into a hotel.C. Go to a farm.D. Buy fresh vegetables.CSalvador Dali (1904-1989) was one of the most popular of modern artists. The Pompidou Centre in Paris is showing its respect and admiration for the artist and his powerful personality with an exhibition bringing together over 200 paintings, sculptures, drawings and more. Among the works and masterworks on exhibition the visitor will find the best pieces, most importantly The Persistence of Memory.There is also L’Enigme sans Fin from 1938, works on paper, objects, and projects for stage and screen and selected parts from television programmes reflecting the artist‟s showman qualities.The visitor will enter the World of Dali through an egg and is met with the beginning, the world of birth. The exhibition follows a path of time and subject with the visitor exiting through the brain.The exhibition shows how Dali draws the viewer between two infinities (无限). “From the infinity small to the infinity large, contraction and expansion coming in and out of focus: amazing Flemish accuracy and the showy Baroque of old painting that he used in his museum-theatre in Figu eras,” explains the Pompidou Centre.The fine selection of the major works was done in close collaboration (合作)with the Museo Nacional Reina Sofia in Madrid, Spain, and with contributions from other institutions like the Salvador Dali Museum in St. Petersburg, Florida.28. Which of the following best describes Dali according to Paragraph 1?A. Optimistic.B. ProductiveC. Generous.D. Traditional.29. What is Dali‟s The Persistence of Memory considered to be?A. One of his masterworks.B. A successful screen adaptation.C. An artistic creation for the stage.D. One of the beat TV programmes.30. How are the exhibits arranged at the World of Dali?A. By popularity.B. By importance.C. By size and shape.D. By time and subject.31. W hat does the word “contributions” in the last paragraph refer to?A. Donations.B. Projects.C. Artworks.D. Documents.DConflict is on the menu tonight at the caféLa Chope. This evening, as on every Thursday night, psychologist Maud Lehanne is leading two of France‟s favorite pastimes, coffee drinking and the “talking cure”. Here they are learning to get in touch with their true feelings. It isn‟t always easy. The customers-some thirty Parisians who pay just under $2 (plus drinks) per session-are quick to intellectualize (高谈阔论),slow to open up and connect. “You are forbidden to say …one feels,‟ or …people think‟,”Lehanne told them. “Say …I think,‟ …Think me‟.”A cafe society where no intellectualizi ng is allowed? It couldn‟t seem more un-French. But Lehanne‟s psychology cafe is about more than knowing oneself: It‟s trying to help the city‟s troubled neighborhood cafes. Over the years, Parisian cafes have fallen victim to changes in the French lifestyle-longer working hours, a fast-food boom and a younger generation‟s desire to spend more time at home. Dozens of new theme cafes appear to change the situation. Cafes focused around psychology, history, and engineering are catching on, filling tables well into the evening.The city‟s “psychology cafes”, which offer great comfort, are among the most popular places. Middle-aged homemakers, retirees, and the unemployed come to such cafes to talk about love, anger, and dreams with a psychologist. And they come to Lehanne‟s group just to learn to say what they feel. “There‟s a strong need in Paris for communication,” says Maurice Frisch, a cafe La Chope regular who works as a religious instructor in a nearby church. “People have few real friends.And they need to open up.” Lehanne says she‟d like to see psychology cafes all over France. “If people had normal lives, these cafes wouldn‟t exist,” she says. “If life weren‟t a battle, people wouldn‟t need a special place just to speak.” But then, it wouldn‟t be France.32.What are people encouraged to do at the cafe La Chope?A. Learn a new subjectB. Keep in touch with friends.C. Show off their knowledge.D. Express their true feelings.33. How are cafes affected by French lifestyle changes?A. They have bigger night crowds.B. They stay open for longer hours.C. They are less frequently visited.D. They start to serve fast food.34. What are theme cafes expected to do?A. Save the cafe business.B. Supply better drinks.C. Create more jobs.D. Serve the neighborhood.35. Why are psychology cafes becoming popular in Paris?A. They bring people true friendship.B. They give people spiritual support.C. They help people realize their dreams.D. They offer a platform for business links.第二节(共5小题,每小题3分,满分15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。

第I卷第一部分阅读理解(共两节,满分40分)第一节(共15个小题;每小题2分,满分30分)阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项A、B、C、D中,选出最佳选项。

AIn 1978,I was 18 and was working as a nurse in a small town about 270 km away from Sydney, Australia. I was looking forward to having five days off from duty. Unfortunately,the only one train a day back to my home in Sydney had already left. So I thought I'd hitch a ride (搭便车).I waited by the side of the highway for three hours but no one stopped for me. Finally,a man walked over and introduced himself as Gordon. He said that although he couldn't give me a lift,I should come back to his house for lunch. He noticed me standing for hours in the November heat and thought I must be hungry. I was doubtful as a young girl but he assured (使……放心)me I was safe,and he also offered to help me find a lift home afterwards. When we arrived at his house,he made us sandwiches. After lunch,he helped me find a lift home.Twenty five years later,in 2003,while I was driving to a nearby town one day,I saw an elderly man standing in the glaring heat,trying to hitch a ride. I thought it was another chance to repay someone for the favour I'd been given decades earlier. I pulled over and picked him up. I made him comfortable on the back seat and offered him some water.After a few moments of small talk,the man said to me,“You haven't changed a bit,even your red hair is still the same.”I couldn't remember where I'd met him. He then told me he was the man who had given me lunch and helped me find a lift all those years ago. It was Gordon.1. The author had to hitch a ride one day in 1978 because ______.A.her work delayed her trip to SydneyB.she was going home for her holidaysC.the town was far away from SydneyD.she missed the only train back home2. Which of the following did Gordon do according to Paragraph 2?A.He helped the girl find a ride.B.He gave the girl a ride back home.C.He bought sandwiches for the girl.D.He watched the girl for three hours.3. The reason why the author offered a lift to the elderly man was that ______.A.she realized he was GordonB.she had known him for decadesC.she was going to the nearby townD.she wanted to repay the favour she once got4. What does the author want to tell the readers through the story?A.Giving sometimes produces nice results.B.Those who give rides will be repaid.C.Good manners bring about happiness.D.People should offer free rides to others.BIt happened to me recently. I was telling someone how much I had enjoyed reading Barack Obama's Dreams From My Father and how it had changed my views of our President. A friend I was talking to agreed with me that it was,in his words,“a brilliantly(精彩地)written book”.However,he then went on to talk about Mr. Obama in a way which suggested he had no idea of his background at all. I sensed that I was talking to a book liar.And it seems that my friend is not the only one. Approximately two thirds of people have lied about reading a book which they haven't. In the World Book Day's “Report on Guilty Secrets”,Dreams From My Father is at number 9.The report lists ten books,and various authors,which people have lied about reading,and as I'm not one to lie too often(I'd hate to be caught out),I'll admit here and now that I haven't read the entire top ten. But I am pleased to say that,unlike 42 percent of people,I have read the book at number one,George Orwell's 1984.I think it's really brilliant.The World Book Day report also has some other interesting information in it. It says that many people lie about having read Jane Austen,Charles Dickens,Fyodor Dostoevsky(I haven't read him,but haven't lied about it either)and Herman Melville. Asked why they lied,the most common reason was to “impress” someone they were speaking to. This could be tricky if the conversation became more in depth!But when asked which authors they actually enjoy,people named J.K. Rowling,John Grisham,Sophie Kinsella(ah,the big sellers,in other words).Forty--two percent of people asked admitted they turned to the back of the book to read the end before finishing the story(I'll come clean:I do this and am astonished that 58 percent said they had never done so).5. How did the author find his friend a book liar?A.By judging his manner of speaking.B.By looking into his background.C.By mentioning a famous name.D.By discussing the book itself.6. Which of the following is a “guilty secret” according to the World Book Day report?A.Charles Dickens is very low on the top-ten list.B.42% of people pretended to have read 1984.C.The author admitted having read 9 books.D.Dreams From My Father is hardly read.7. By lying about reading,a person hopes to ______.A.control the conversationB.appear knowledgeableC.learn about the bookD.make more friends8. What is the author's attitude to 58% of readers?A.Favorable.B.Uncaring.C.Doubtful.D.Friendly.CGiven that many people's moods(情绪)are regulated(调节)by the chemical action of chocolate,it was probably only a matter of time before somebody made thechocolate shop similar to a drugstore of Chinese medicine. Looking like a setting from the film Charlie& the Chocolate Factory,Singapore's Chocolate Research Facility(CRF)has over 100 varieties of chocolates. Its founder is Chris Lee who grew up at his parents' corner store with one hand almost always in the jar of sweets.If the CRF seems to be a smart idea,that's because Lee is not merely an experienced salesperson but also head of a marketing department that has business relations with big names such as Levi's and Sony. That idea surely results in the imagination at work when it comes to making different flavored(味道)chocolates.The CRF's produce is “green”,made within the country and divided into 10 lines,with the Alcohol Series being the most popular. The Exotic Series—with Sichuan pepper,red bean(豆),cheese and other flavors—also does well and is fun to taste. And for chocolate snobs,who think that they have a better knowledge of chocolate than others,the Connoisseur Series uses cocoa beans from Togo,Cuba,Venezuela,and Ghana,among others.9. What is good about chocolate?A.It serves as a suitable gift.B.It works as an effective medicine.C.It helps improve the state of mind.D.It strengthens business relations.10. Why is Chris Lee able to develop his idea of the CRF?A.He knows the importance of research.B.He learns from shops of similar types.C.He has the support of many big names.D.He has a lot of marketing experience.11. Which line of the CRF produce sells best?A.The Connoisseur Series.B.The Exotic Series. C.The Alcohol Series.D.The Sichuan Series.12. The words “chocolate snobs” in Paragraph 3 probably refer to people who______. A.are particular about chocolateB.know little about cocoa beansC.look down upon othersD.like to try new flavorsDI got my first driver's license(执照)in 1953 by taking driver education in my first year at Central High School in Charlotte, North Carolina. Four years later when it was time to renew my license I was a married woman. Henry and I were living in Baltimore, Maryland. Two weeks before my20th birthday, Henry drove me to the motor vehicle office on a hot July afternoon. When I got to the office and showed to the man behind the counter my North Carolina driver's license, ready to renew, the man told me that I was under age by Mar yland law since I was not yet 21.“Mr.Henry Smith, your husband, will have to sign for you,”I argued, pointing to a very large belly(肚子)of mine, “I am married. I am having a baby. Why should I have to have someone sign for me to drive?”He answered coldly, “It's the law,madam.”Henry encouraged me to calm down, just go ahead and get the license and be done with it.“No,”I said. I refused to have him sign for me. So I left withoutaI called the North Carolina Motor Vehicle Office and renewed my NC license by mail—using my name Susan Brown. And thus it was for the next twelve years. Since Henry was in the army I could drive under my home state license. By the time Henry left the army we were once again living in Maryland, and I had to take the Marylanddriver's exam. Since then I just go in and renew every four years—sign the name Susan Brown, have my new picture taken,13. Susan got her first driver's license ______.A.before she got married to HenryB.when she was twenty years oldC.after she finished high schoolD.when she just moved to Maryland14. Susan failed to renew her license the first time in Maryland because ______. A.she was forbidden to drive by Maryland lawB.she lacked driving experience in MarylandC.she was to give birth to a baby soonD.she insisted on signing for herself15. We can infer from the text that in the U.S.______.A.American males should serve in the armyB.different states may have different lawsC.people have to renew their licenses in their home statesD.women should adopt their husbands' family names after marriage第二节(共5个小题;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项。

ABefore he sailed round the world alone, Francis Chichester had already surprised his friends several times. He had tried to fly round the world but failed. That was in 1931.The years passed. He gave up flying and began sailing. He enjoyed it greatly. Chichester was already 58 years old when he won the first solo transatlantic sailing race. His old dream of going round the world came back, but this time he would sail.His friends and doctors did not think he could do it, as he had lung cancer. But Chichester was determined to carry out his plan. In August 1966, at the age of nearly 65, an age when many men retire, he began the greatest voyage of his life.Chichester covered 14100 miles before stopping in Sydney, Australia. This was more than twice the distance anyone had previously sailed alone. He arrived in Australia on 12 December, just 107 days out from England. He received a warm we lcome from the Australians and from his family who had flown there to meet him. On shore, Chichester could not walk without help. Everybody said the same thing: he had done enough; he must not go any further. But he did not listen.After resting in Sydney for a few weeks, Chichester set off once more in spite of his friends' attempts to dissuade him. The second half of his voyage was by far the more dangerous part, during which he sailed round the treacherous Cape Horn.After succeeding in sailing round Cape Horn, Chichester sent the following radio message to London: "I feel as if I had wakened from a nightmare. Wild horses could not drag me down to Cape Horn and that sinister Southern Ocean again."Just before 9 o'clock on Sunday evening 28 May 1967, he arrived back in England, where a quarter of a million people were waiting to welcome him.Queen Elizabeth II knighted(授以爵位) him with the very sword that Queen Elizabeth I had used almost 400 years earlier to knight Sir Francis Drake after he had sailed round the world for the first time.The whole voyage from England and back had covered 28,500 miles. It had taken him nine months, of which the sailing time was 226 days. He had done what he wanted to accomplish.21.What can we learn about Chichester?A.He failed the solo transatlantic sailing race in 1959.B.He was a brave and determined man.C.The second half of his voyage was not as dangerous as the first half.D.The radio message expressed his concern about the sailing.22.What did Queen Elizabeth II do after Chichester arrived back in England?A.She called on the English to learn form him.B.She was waiting to congratulate on his success in sailingC.She thought poorly of his achievements.D.She knighted him for praising him.23.We can infer from the text that ____A.Anyone who had sailed alone traveled less than 7050miles before 1966B.Chichester sailed round the Atlantic in 1931C.Most of the English retire at the age of 65D.Chichester died of lung cancer in 1967 after he went back to EnglandBBanquets are usually held in restaurants in private rooms that have been reserved for the purpose. You will be met at the door and led to the banquet room. Traditionally, the head of your delegation should enter the room first. Do not be surprised if your hosts greet you with a loud round of applause. The proper response is to applaud back.Seating arrangements are stricter than in the West. Guests should never assume that they may sit where they please and should wait for hosts to guide them to their places. Traditionally, the Chinese regard the right side as the superior and the left side as the inferior. Therefore on formal occasions, the host invariably arranges for the main guests to sit on his right side.It is the host's responsibility to serve the guests, and at very formal banquets people do not begin to eat until the host has served a portion to the principal guest. Or, the host may simply raise his chopsticks and announce that eating has begun. After this point, one may serve oneself any food in any amount. Remember to go slow on eating. Don't fill yourself up when five courses are left to go. To stop eating in the middle of a banquet is rude, and your host may incorrectly think that something has been done to offend you.Drinking takes an important place in Chinese banquets. It is likely that the host will stand and hold his glass out with both hands while saying a few words. When he says the words "gan bei", which means bottoms up, all present should drai n their glasses. After this initial toast, drinking and toasting are open to all. No words are needed to make a toast, and it is not necessary to drain your glass, although to do so is more respectful. When filling another glass, it is polite to fill it as full as you can. This symbolizes full respect and friendship.When the last dish is finished, the banquet has officially ended. There is little ceremony involved with its conclusion.

The machine was designed and built by engineer Andreas Hammar, known locally for his appearances on TV tech show Mekatronik.He said the critical part of the sweat machine was a new water purification component developed by a company named HVR in collaboration with Sweden's Royal Institute of Technology."It uses a technique called membrane distillation(膜蒸馏)," he told the BBC."We use a substance that's a bit like Gortex that only lets steam through but keeps bacteria, salts, clothing fibers and other substances out."They have something similar on the International Space Station to treat astronaut's urine - but our machine was cheaper to build.V olunteers have been sampling the treated sweat since the start of the week in Gothenburg"The amount of water it produces depends on how sweaty the person is - but one person's T-shirt typically produces 10ml , roughly a mouthful."The equipment has been put on show at the Gothia Cup - the world's largest international youth football tournament.MattiasRonge, chief executive of Stockholm-based advertising agency Deportivo - which organized the stunt(惊人的表演) - said the machine had helped raise awarenessfor UNICEF, but in reality had its limitations."People haven't produced as much sweat as we hoped - right now the weather in Gothenburg is lousy," he said."So we've installed exercise bikes alongside the machine and volunteers are cycling like crazy."Even so, the demand for sweat is greater than the supply. And the machine will never be mass produced - there are better solutions out there such as water purifying pills."28.Which of the following is the disadvantage of the machine?_______.A.The water processed by the machine is cleaner than local tap water .B.The amount of water the machine produces is too small.C.the machine is cheaper than the similar one on the International Space StationD.The machine can help raise awareness of lacking water in the world .29.What is the main idea of the fifth paragraph ?A.How the machine works.B.Who developed the machine.C.How the machine was invented.D.Why the machine was invented..30.What does Mttias Ronge think of the machine?____A.The machine can solve the severe water shortage in the world..B.People do not like the water the machine processesC.The machine should be used in rathe r hot areas in summer.D.The machine is not worth popularizing..31.The passage is most likely to be____A.a tourist brochureB.a book reviewC.a news reportD.a blog.DMany people rely on a cup of coffee or two to wake them up in the morning or pick them up during the working day, but now a chemist has come up with a speedy alternative to crafting a cup of coffee.U.S. biochemist Ben Y u has created `Sprayable Energy,` which claims to be the world`s first caffeine - based topical energy spray.He said tired workers can spray a `shot` of caffeine onto their skin without experiencing a strong buzz, loading up on unnecessary calories or being stuck with a nasty aftertaste like they might get from drinking energy drinks or coffee.The patent-pending caffeine spray is an odourless liquid that is absorbed through the skin and distributed through the body over a number of hours to deliver a caffeine hit that apparently lastslonger than guzzling a cup of coffee.Each small aluminum bottle of Sprayable Energy contains around 160 sprays - the equivalent amount of caffeine to 40 cups of coffee and the creators say it is a much cheaper way of getting a caffeine fix than popping to a cafe.The only active ingredient in the spray is caffeine, which can naturally enter the human body through the skin by passing through cell membranes as it is very similar to nicotine in structure.Each spritz of Sprayable Energy contains around a quarter of the amount of caffeine found in a cup of coffee, but apparently has the same effect as a full cup.The website said: `The reason for this is our product not being ingested, isn`t almost entirely metabolised(新陈代谢)by the liver before entering your system and becoming available to your body.``Thus, a smaller amount of caffeine can have just the same effect as a very large amount of caffeine ingested through an energy drink or cup of coffee.`c`s website recommends that users apply the spray in places where they normally spritz perfume, such as the neck or wrists, but warns users not to exceed 20 sprays a day.It claims that after spraying the product on the skin, users will feel `awake and focused without being over-stimulated,` which is common with coffee and energy drinks.32.What can we learn about Sprayable Energy from the passage ?_______.A.A bottle of Sprayable Energyis cheaper than 40 cups of coffee. .B.Sprayable Energy lets users not worry about taking in unecessary calories..C.Sprayable Energy can be used at least 20 sprays a dayD.The caffeine spray is a colorless liquid that is absorbed through the skin..33.What does the fifth paragraph mainly tell us ?____A,Sprayable Energy is taken by mouth...B.Before Sprayable Energy is absorbed by body, the liver entirely metabolizes itC.How Sprayable Energy acts on user‟s body and how users use the product.D.Sprayable Energy is convenient but expensive.34.We can conclude from the passage that ____A.Sprayable Energy can not be permitted to be used by people now.B. Sprayable Energy has not already gone into mass productionC.each spritz of Sprayable Energy has the same effect as a full cup of coffeeD.Sprayable Energy is well received by flagging workers.35.The writer‟s attitude towards Sprayable Energy ____A.negative.B. positiveC.uncertainD.indifferent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。

AThese days having a best friend seems so important to girls. However I have learned that having one best friend is not the way to go. It's so much better to have many great friends.As I was coming into Middle School, I was really excited because my friend Jennifer was going to be in the same Middle School! At first things were great, she introduced me to her friend Amy and we had lots of fun together. Then things started to change. Jennifer was very controlling: I couldn't make new friends, and pretty soon being Jennifer's friend was a struggle.Jennifer wanted to be the "leader" of our little group. Amy and I were never partners with each other in class projects or gym; it was always, "Who gets the privilege(特权)of being Jennifer's partner." Amy and I both wanted to be Jennifer's number one.I always waited for Jennifer and Amy after classes. They chatted by Jennifer's desk as Jennifer packed her books up and I waited by the door. Sometimes when they left, they'd walk right past me. No "Thanks for waiting." No "Sorry we took so long." It was as if they couldn't even see me.After months of living through school this way, I had really changed. I was moody, depressed, lonely. I spent lots of days trying not to cry, I felt so left out.Finally, near the very end of the school year, I was so incredibly sick of having to battle for friendship.I stopped sitting with Jennifer at lunch and stopped waiting for her after class.It was tough at first, but now, I have tons of friends. We have fun and happy times together and I love them all to bits. It amazes me how easy our friendship is. There's no struggling to be on top. I wish Jennifer could understand. Maybe one day she'll look back at what happened and she'll change, but even though I lost a friend, I am a happier person.21. What is the purpose of the writer writing this passage?A. to describe her school lifeB. to criticize the way Jennifer treated her friendsC. to show her regret towards losing a friend.D. to advise girls to make many friends instead of one22.What does the sentence “Things started to change” refer to?A. The writer lost interest in study.B. Lessons became more and more difficult.C. Being Jennifer’s frien d became a struggle.D. The writer gave up the friendship with Jennifer.23. What can be implied from the last paragraph?A. The writer regretted a lot about losing a friend.B. Jennifer has changed herself.C. All of t he writer’s new friends are equ al.D. The school life is always difficult for the writer.BIs packing important to you?A young man was ready to graduate from college. For many months he had admired a beautiful sports car. Knowing his father could well afford it, he told him that was all he wanted.As Graduation Day approached, his anxiety grew. Finally, on the morning of his graduation, his father called him into his study and handed him a beautiful wrapped gift box. Curious, but somewhat disappointed, the young man opened the box and found a lovely, leather-bound Bible, with the young man's name embossed in gold. Angrily, he raised his voice and said, "With all your money you give me a Bible?", then stormed out of the house, leaving the Bible.Many years passed and the young man was very successful in business. He had a beautiful home and a wonderful family. Realizing his father was very old, he thought perhaps he should go to see him. He had not seen him since that graduation day. Then, a telegram arrived, telling him his father had passed away, and willed all his possessions to the son.When he arrived at home, sudden sadness and regret filled his heart. He began to search through his father's important papers and saw the still new Bible, just as he had left it years ago. With tears, he opened the bible and turned the pages. From the back of the Bible dropped a car key. It had a tag with the dealer's name and the words… "PAID IN FULL".How many times do we miss blessings because they are not packaged as we expected? Remember, what may appear as bad fortune may in fact be the door that is just waiting to be opened.24.As graduation day approached the young man became anxious, because______.A. the young man’s father was seriously ill.B. he was anxious to know whether he had passed the exams.C. he was anxiously waiting for the new carD. he felt upset to leave college25.

For a while, silence fell.“I thought that we had a lot of topics to share, but few people were really interested in talking,” she said. “It seemed that there’s a big gap between me and those with hand-held devices (设备)” .Shuai is not the only one feeling segregated from others by mobile technology. According to a latest survey of hundreds of teenagers in Hong Kong 54.29 percent of them would use cellphones while having dinner with their families. It has affected relationships with their parents. It suggests that while technology such as cell phones, e-mails, and Internet posting has made us feel more connected than ever, they’re also driving us away from people around us.Sherry Turkle, author of the article in The New York Times says people are now used to a new way of b eing “alone together.”Actually, sending text messages or writing micro blogs allows us to exchange thoughts. But online connection cannot replace a “real conversation”.Lan Guo, 19, a freshman English major from Changsha University, said that she would like to hear people’s voice and see their faces in a conversation. “The exchange of ideas in a conversation sharpens our minds,” she said. She also mentions that burying ourselves in mobile technology reduces our chance of starting conversations with strangers and meeting people.However, experts remind us that it’s unfair to blame mobile technology. Chen Chen, a sociology expert points out that, it is still the mobile owners who’re avoiding personal contact.We ourselves use these devices to hide ourselves from others. Texting or calling may be an excuse to avoid contact with others, such as having eye contact. “The way to improve conversation is by understanding each other. Simply throwing away mobilephones is not a solution,” she said.32.The best title for the passage would be “_____________”.A. Mobilephone addictionB. Development of mobile technologyC. An unhappy high school friends meetingD. It is the cellphone that ends a real conversation33.The underlined word “segregated”in Paragraph 3 means “_________”A. preventedB. separatedC. protectedD. injured34. Which of the following statements is not true according to Chen Chen?A. It is the mobile users that are to blame for the death of conversation.B. Mobile users avoid real contact with others by sending messages or calling.C. Only by totally forgetting mobile phones can we solve the problem.D. We can better conversation by means of understanding each other.35. Who thinks the exchange of thoughts in a real conversation make us cleverer?A. Shuai YunyunB. Sherry TurkleC. Lan GuoD.

ATo avoid becoming the lead story on the evening news, be prepared. Before you head out on a hike, check the weather, take plenty of water, and make sure someone knows where y ou‟ll be and when you‟ll be back. Bring clothes to keep you warm when wet. Avoid cotton, which is easy to take in moisture(潮气).“To avoid getting lost, check often to make sure you‟re still on the trail(路线),” says John Dill, a search-and-rescue worker at Yosemite National Park in California. “The minute you think you might not be on the trail, stop.” If you‟re not alone, focusing on the needs of others can help you get rid of your own fears. Other keys to survival: staying observant and remembering to rest.The surest way to get out alive is to take basic precautions(预防措施), such as taking a set of survival equipment. It includes waterproof matches for starting a fire, a folding knife for cutting branches, and a plastic tarp(防水布) for making shelter.Generally, people who try to find their own way out get along worse than those who stay, says Richard N. Bradley, MD, of the American Red Cross. Find shelter before dark, and try to keep dry. Stay visible so that anyone searching can see you. In a wide-open area, make a signal with colorful tools, make a big X out of rocks, or dig a long shallow hole.You can go several days without eating, so in most cases, you‟d better not search for food, since there are lots of poisonous plants in the wild, says Dr Bradley. You cannot survive without water, so if you run out of water, it‟s usually better to drink from a stream with suspect water than to go without.21. By saying “becoming the lead story on the evening news” in Para. 1, the author really means ______.A. you will be interviewed by the journalistB. you will become famous for your survival in a forestC. the news that you are lost will spread around quicklyD. your experience in the wild will be reported in the evening news22. According to the writer, how can you avoid getting lost when you are alone?A. Make sure you don‟t leave the trail.B. Remember not to stop on the trail.C. Try to look for others‟ help.D. Overcome the fear of getting lost.23. According to the passage, you may get into trouble if you ______.A. try to find food to fill your stomach in the wildB. stay in the shelter before darkC. remain where you get lost and wait for helpD. drink water from the stream24. Why does the author suggest digging a long shallow hole in a wide-open area when you get lost?A. To find some water to drink.B. To store some food you‟ve brought along.C. To attract the rescuer‟s attention.D. To use it as a shelter.BMany New Zealand children are being studied for sleep disorders(紊乱) after overloading on technology before bedtime. Specialists say computers and televisions disturb sleep patterns and cause learning, concentration and growth problems.Dr Alex Bartle, director of the Sleep Well Clinic, said that different sorts of technology were keeping children awake. Computer games and social networking sites such as Bebo and Facebook were worse than TV for exciting young minds because they were more interactive(互动的). They should be switched off at least an hour before bedtime. “To fall asleep, you need to have a certain amount of calmness in the brain,” said Bartle. “being excited doesn‟t help those brainwaves settle.”Professor Philippe Gander, director of Masse y University‟s Sleep / Wake Research Centre, said poor sleep had been linked to learning, behavioral and growth problems.Bartle said parents should make sure that children were well-rested and not kept awake by the technology surrounding them. “They need to encourage kids to get out during the day. Watching TV or playing on computers as soon as they get home isn‟t good from a sleep point of view. Parents need to be strong enough to remove TVs or computers.”In Britain, National Health Service data show almost 3,000 under-11s were referred to specialists for problems such as sleeplessness and sleep-walking(梦游) in 2007, up 26 percent from 2002.While there are no figures in New Zealand, experts have no doubt that the number of children in need of help is on t he increase. “We have the same sorts of technology, the same lifestyles,” said Bartle.The Child Health Research Foundation in New Zealand has funded(资助) studies on sleep problems and is waiting for the results.25. What does “technology”mainly refer to a ccording to the passage?A. pianos and guitarsB. televisions and computersC. learning machinesD.MP3s and MP4s26. According to Dr Alex Bartle‟s opinion, we can learn that ______.A. Children should not watch TV or play online games in the eveningB. Watching TV does more harm to children than playing computer gamesC. Some parents fail to set a limit on the time their children spend on technologyD. About 3,000 New Zealand under-11s have sleep problems in 200727. Experts are sure that the number of New Zealand children with sleep problems is increasing because _____.A. New Zealand children play more online games than British childrenB. They have exact data from National Health ServiceC. New Zealand children are in the same situation as the British childrenD. They have exact data provided by hospitals28. What is the main idea of the passage?A. Children like computer games.B. Technology disturbs children‟s sleep.C. The ways of dealing with sleep disorders.D. New Zealand parents should prevent children from watching TV.CTo “sacrifice” means to give up something in exchange for something better. My husband and I decided to make a sacrifice and exchange city life and move to a seaside village with our children aged 9 and 3 years. We had a beautiful home in the city and plenty of money but little real safety because crime was on the increase every day. We never knew if we would all make it safely home at night. I hoped my children would be brought up in a peaceful and friendly environment.We were very happy in our new town, but life was very difficult economically. Income was based on the tourist seasons and jobs were few. Although many of the long- standing residents(居民) were well off in the town, it was a very competitive environment for newcomers. We had to adapt to the difficult new life over the past four years.Reading the newspapers from the big cities made us better believe that we had made the right choice. But it was not always easy to explain to the children why they could no longer have what they used to have.However, our little daughter proved to me she had the ability to think about problems in a reasonable way. The son of a visiting friend preferred riding in the back of our old little truck to his father‟s big car.Our little daug hter called me and said, “Mom, please help me to explain to James that he is wrong. He says that …Today, if you don‟t have money you are nothing.‟ I know that is not true. If you do have money you share it with your friends and if you don‟t have money and they do, they share it with you. That is what makes us all rich.” It made me realize that the sacrifice was well worth it.29. Why did the family move away from the city?A. They were tired of the city life.B. The city was not safe enough.C. Pollution in the city was serious.D. Life in the city was expensive.30. What was the worst to the author‟s family in their new town?A. They couldn‟t get used to the weather.B. It was hard for them to get a steady and satisfying income.C. Their neighbours were richer than them.D. They had few friends in the new environment.31. The author realized that their sacrifice was well worth it because _______.A. they had a beautiful home in the seaside villageB. they made a lot of money in the tourist seasonsC. their children could receive good educationD. their children could form a good value concept in the new environmentD.2014 Good Neighbor Dream Vacation PackageStay close to the magic and make your dreams come true.

A(2015•山东省青岛市高三统一质量检测)What are American high schools like? Well, I‟m happy to tell you what I know.When I started school here, it had already been a week since the school opened. At this school, freshmen usually go on a trip for about three days at the beginning of school. Unfortunately I missed that wonderful trip, which would have been the best time to get to know my classmates. I was really s ad. I wished I‟d known about it earlier.Despite the disappointment, however, I gradually adapted to my new life and school.There is a space in the basement of the teaching building where students chat and meet each other. As we do not always have the same classrooms and classmates, the school wants us to get to know each other there. Students usually come to school early, sit in that space and have fun. Around the space, there are many lockers for students to leave their books in, so that students do not have to carry a heavy schoolbag everywhere.It really surprises me that we have almost no textbooks. We only have textbooks for World History and Algebra 2 and they are big and heavy, like bricks. For other classes, we only need binders (活页夹) with paper in them. Without textbooks, students learn things freely and actively. For example, my humanities teacher just teaches us what is in her mind at the time. We never know what we will learn.Another difference between American schools and Chinese schools is that American schools care about students‟ morality more than their academic studies. For example, if you do not finish your homework, you will just be asked to do it later, but if you cheat or lie, you will get a warning or even be kicked out.I think that most students here are good at schoolwork as well, but compared to Chinese students, they can make learning a more joyful experience.

That‟s where the virus was discovered in 1976. A person can only get Ebola through direct contact with an infected person‟s bodily fl uids, for example, sweat or spit. Additionally, the virus can get into your body through your eyes and mouth if those areas come into contact with something that contains the bodily fluids of an infected person. That‟s why health care workers are supposed to keep themselves completely covered while treating patients.The deadliest Ebola outbreak is spreading fast in Western Africa, taking over 900 lives so far. The health systems in Guinea, Sierra Leone and Liberia are severely lacking in resources, and health care workers may not have access to adequate protective clothing when working in rural clinics, where the proper protections are lacking. Since Guinea, Sierra Leone and Liberia share a border; it‟s easier for people to move from one country to anoth er, increasing the risk for disease spread. The virus has a 2-to-21-day incubation (潜伏) period. It is systemic and can move to and affect every part of the body, causing direct damage to organs and internal bleeding. This causes shock, dropping a person‟s blood pressure and causing multi-system organ failure.For now, all doctors can do is to treat the symptoms and provide supportive care like monitoring heart rate, blood pressure, and breathing while making sure the patients‟ fluids are supplied. Sometimes patients are given antibiotics (抗生素) to treat other possible infections. The hope is to make the patient pull through the infection so their immune system can eventually clear the virus. The people who survive Ebola have created enough antibodies to kill it. This is harder to achieve in rural health systems in West Africa that are tasked with treating thousands of patients with poor resources.There are several promising drugs and vaccines in development, but since Ebola is less common—and research about it is not well funded — there is no drug or vaccine that has been approved for use in humans. Many of the other drugs and vaccines have not yet been tested in humans. The WHO (World Health Organization) is meeting next week to discuss whether experimental treatments should be used during this outbreak.25. According to the passage, Ebola only spreads through _____.A. polluted airB. bodily fluidsC. flying birdsD. river water26. Which is not the possible reason why Ebola spreads in West Africa quickly?A. The health resources are poor.B. Infected people are kept together.C. The protective clothing is adequate.D. Three western countries share a border.27. Why have there been no cures used for Ebola in humans so far?A. The drugs for Ebola are being developed now.B. Ebola is rare and its research money is lacking.C. Ebola does far more harm to patients than AIDS.D. The WHO hasn‟t decided whether to use them.28. Which of the following can be the best title?A. Help the poorest West Africa.B. No cure for the virus “Ebola”.C. How to treat Ebola patients.D. Introduction to the virus “Ebola”.C(2015•山东省泰安市高三下学期一模诊断测试)A team of scientists from University of Freiburg in Germany are developing a shoe with a sensor to automatically tie its laces(鞋带)that could be taken off when users click their heels together.It’s been 26 years since we saw them magically tightening Marty McFly’s Nike boots in the film Back to The Future.Now,self-tying shoelaces could actually become a reality this year,proving right one of the film’s fantastical predictions for what 2015 would be like.Engineers have designed a shoe that can automatically lace up,adjusting itself to the shape of your foot.Simply slip the controller on and pressure sensors will tell the …smart shoe‟ when your foot is in position,triggering(触发)a tiny motor in the heel that pulls the laces tight.When you want to take off the shoes,you click your heels together twice and the motor will release a spring(弹簧)in the shoe’s tongue,which loosens the laces enough for you to slip them off.And the invention doesn‟t even need to be plugged in to charge or have its battery re placedbecause it runs on power generated by the swing of your foot as you walk·Engineer K1evis Ylli,of the Institute for Micromachining and Information Technology in southern Gemany,said the shoes could help a variety of different people.“One focus is that it could be used in shoes for elderly people who have mobility problems,”he said.“But it could also work for children,or as a lifestyle product.”.The design,which is still in a prototype(雏形)stage,cleverly gets the energy of the foot’s swing when opposing magnets in each shoe move past each other. It then uses that power to charge a battery.An hour of walking is enough to tighten the laces once,and it requires no energy to undo the shoes because that relies on the spring alone.29.Which of the following can be the best title of the text?A.A fantastical prediction B.A great invention in GermanyC.A shoe with self-tying laces D.A popular lifestyle product30.What can we learn about the shoes?A.They can automatically take off.B.They can adjust themselves to your foot.C.They need to be charged once.D.They have been in design for 26 years.31.From the last paragraph we can know ____________.A.the shoes have been put into useB.the shoes need power to take offC.the shoes promise to be popularD.how the shoes work to produce energyD(2015·辽宁省沈阳市东北育才学校高三上学期第一次模拟)Justin Bieber may have millions of fans worldwide, but Russi a‟s bears don‟t appear to admire the pop singer‟s music—which proved fortunate for one lucky fisherman.Igor Vorozhbitsyn had his life saved by a Justin Bieber ringtone, when his mobile phone went off during a dangerous attack by a brown bear.The 42-year-old was attacked as he was walking to a favourite fishing spot in northernRussia‟s Yakutia Republic and firmly believed that he was going to be killed.Wildlife experts believe the ringtone must have frightened the bear into stopping its attack.…Sometim es a sharp shock can stop an angry bear in its attack and that ringtone would be a very unexpected sound for a bear,‟ explained one.Mr Vorozhbitsyn suffered from cuts and severe wounds and was rescued when he was found by other fishermen after using the phone to call for help.Mr V orozhbitsyn —now recovering from his wounds—explained: …I had parked my car and was walking towards the spot I‟d marked out when there was a tremendous impact on my back and the bear was on top of me.‟…I couldn‟t believe my luck when the phone went off and it run away.‟…I know that sort of ringtone isn‟t to everyone‟s taste but my granddaughter loaded it onto my phone for a joke,‟ he added.Adult brown bears can weigh as much as 600kg and have been known to kill wolves and even Siberian tigers.Finally, this is a proof that Justin Bieber is unbearable32. Igor Vorozhbitsyn was attacked when____.A. he was fishing at his favourite fishing spot.B. he was walking towards his favourite fishing spot.C. he was phoning his granddaughter.D. he was driving to his favourite fishing spot.33.

AIf the word researcher brings to mind someone who works in a laboratory doing experiments or reads a11 day in a librar y,then meet Dr.Sylvia Earle.Dr.Earle has carried out much of her research deep under the sea.Her outstanding work at sea ha s included leading around 70 expeditions(探索)and spending over 6,500 hours under the water. She also holds the world record for the deepest walk alone on the ocean floor at a depth of 381 metres.It’s no wonder she ha s been given the nickname“Her Deepness”.As a child,Dr.Earle was always interested in wildlife and was never afraid to find out about nature.Her parents told her to touch animals and insects,and not to be afraid of them.When she was older,she was given the opportunity to develop this int erest thanks to scho1arships to study botany at university.She also took courses in sea diving and decided to devote herself t o marine(海洋的)biology.It was this decision and her determined character that led her to have a truly remarkable career.After several years of diving,Dr.Earle took part in a research expedition in an underwater laboratory.The laboratory was called a Tektite Habitat and it allowed divers to remain under the water to carry out research for weeks at a time.In 1970 an all-female group went on the sixth expedition of the Tektite II scientists-in-the-water programme.Dr.Earle was asked to lead the expedition.Along with another four women-three scientists and an engineer-she stayed in the Tektite Habitat for two wee ks.Marine life has always been at the centre of Dr.Earle’s work and she is highly respected for her authority in this field.She i s often asked to give talks by environmental groups about marine life as well as her plan to create a global network of marin e protected areas. What makes her extra special is that she doesn’t look upon her work as a job,but as her vocation(天职)in life.21.In what way is Dr.Earle different from most researchers we know about?A.She works in a laboratory doing experiments all day.B.She reads all day in a library.C.She carries out much of her research deep under the sea.D.She has broken lots of world records.22.What’s the main idea of Paragraph 2?A.Dr.Earle’s interest in wildlife led her to a truly remarkable career.B.Dr.Earle’s success is chiefly due to her family background.C.Dr.Earle’s success is chiefly due to the scholarships to study botany at university.D.V arious factors have contributed to Dr.Earle’s success.23.Which of the following is true according to Paragraph 3?A.Five women took part in the expedition.B.Five scientists took part in the expedition.C.Dr.Earle was an ordinary member of the group.D.The group stayed under water for three weeks.24.What does Dr.Earle hope to achieve in the future?A.To keep marine life at the centre of her work.B.To create protected areas in the oceans around the world.C.To travel around the world giving talks.D.To look upon her work as her vocation in life.BA paperclip,made of steel wire bent into a looped()shape,is an instrument used to hold sheets of paper toget her.This common device is a wonder of simplicity and function.But where did this simple,cheap,and practical invention co me from?In the late 19th century,the most common way to hold papers together was by using a pin.Although the pin was an ine xpensive tool and was easily removable,it would 1eave holes in the ter,as steelvwire became more common,invent ors began to notice its elastic()feature.With this feature,it could be stretched and twisted into various clip-like objects.In the years just before 1900,quite a few paperclip designs appeared.The name most frequently associated with the paperclip invention is Johan Vaaler,a Norwegian inventor.However,Vaaler’s clips were not the same as the paperclips curr entlyin use.Specifically,they did not have the inside loop we see today.The familiar looped design was invented by Gem Manuf acturing Ltd.in England.This clip is therefore sometimes known as the Gem clip.Because of Vaaler,the paperclip played an important historical role in Norway.During World War II,Norway was occu pied by the Nazis.Norwegians were prohibited from wearing any symbol of their national unity(),such as buttons wi th the initials of their king.Thus,in protest,they started wearing paperclips to show their unity.The reason for doing this was simple:Paperclips were a Norwegian invention whose original function was to bind together.After the war,a giant papercli p statue was put up in Oslo to honour Vaaler—even though his design was never actually produced.25.According to the first paragraphthe paperclip is________.A.made of paperB.for holding clothes togetherC.shaped like a pinD.inexpensive and useful26.One way the paperclip is better than the pin is that_________A.it is cheaperB.it is simplerC.it doesn’t damage the paperD.it can be removed more easily27.Which of the following best shows what the Gem clip looks like?28.The last paragraph is mainly about_________.A.how widely used Vaaler’s clip isB.how V aalers clip became a national symbolC.how the Nazis ruled the Norwegian peopleD.why Norwegians had the initials of their king on their buttonsCI was born on the last day of February.I’ve always felt sorry for February,squeezed between the big months of January( named for the Roman god Janus,keeper of gateways)and March(after Mars,the god of war).The first Roman calendar,it is said,had 10 months and no February.Beginning at the vernal equinox()with March,i t ended with December.In an agricultural society,winter was of little importance,and thus went undivided.January and February were added about 700 B.C.by the second king of Rome,Numa Pompilius.He made all the months 29 or 31 days,but shortened February,the last month of the year,by giving it only 28.Next,it was the church’s turn.In 1582 Pope Gregory XIII announced a new calendar in Europe.Many changes were ma de,but the Pope passed up yet another chance to give February equality with the other months.It’s messy,even dangerous,changing how we measure time,but Pope Gregory was hardly the last one to try.The League o f Nations received over 150 new calendar designs,and the United Nations has considered more proposals since.Each propos al involves something that supposedly modernizes the calendar.But I have a simpler proposal that won’t lead to chaos,and will correct the historical injustices against Februarymove the last day of January and the last day of March into February to make it a normal month with 30 days,and a respecta ble 31 on leap years().This would not add or subtract a single day from the calendar year.It’s a great idea.And unlike J ulius and Augustus,I won’t even demand a month named in my honor.29.The first Roman calendar had only 10 months because_________.A.February hated to be squeezed between the big monthsB.the god of war always fought with January and FebruaryC.the Romans did not like the cold winter weatherD.it was Considered unnecessary to divide winter30.Which of the following is closest to Numa Pompilius’calendar?31.The writer sounds_____in the passage.A.sadB.humorousC.happyD. angryDOne important thing during the pre-Christmas rush at our house was the arrival of my daughter’s kindergarten report car d.She got high praise for her reading,vocabulary and overall enthusiasm.On the other hand,We learnt that she has work to do on her numbers and computer skills,though the detailed handwritten report her teachers prepared is absent of any words tha t might be interpreted as negative()in describing her efforts.A number System indicates how she’s measuring up in e ach area without any mention of passing or failing.The debate over whether formal grades should be given to kids has long existed.At one level,the advantages and disadva ntages are obvious.A grade system provides a straightforward standard by which to measure how your child is progressing a t school--and how he or she is getting on compared to other children.But as writer Sue Ferguson notes,Grades can deceive. ()The aim should be”to measure learning,not simply what a student can remember on a test.”The two aren’t the same-and if you doubt that as an adult,ask yourself whether you could sit down without any preparation and still pass those high-s chool-level examinations.If you’re old enough,You’ve lived through this debate before.At one time,it was considered unfair to put children in dire ct competition with one another if it could be avoided.The intention behind that may have been good,but it ignored the fact t hat competition,and the will to come out on top,are essential components of the human condition.32.Which of the following seems to be weak on the daughter’s kindergarten report card?A.Reading.B.V ocabulary.C.Enthusiasm.D.Numbers.33.what did the teachers try to do when preparing the report card?A.Avoid using negative words.B.Describe the facts as they really were.e numbers instead of words.D.Avoid showing weak areas.34.What does the writer suggest by the underlined part in Paragraph 2?A.Most adults can pass high-school-level examinations without preparation.B.There’s no doubt that most high-school-level examinations measure learning.C.As an adult,you should not doubt your ability to pass high-school-level examinations.D.It’s difficult for most adults to pass high-school-level examinations without preparation.35.Which of the following would the writer most probably agree with?A.Schools should not give formal grades to kids.B.Schools should give formal grades to kids.C.Giving formal grades to kids has no disadvantages at a11.D.It’s unfair to put children in direct competition with one another.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。

AMany critics worry about violence on television, most out of fear that it stimulates viewers to violent or aggressive acts. Our research, however, indicates that the consequences of experiencing TV’s symbolic world of violence may be much more far-reaching.We have found that people who watch a lot of TV see the real world as more dangerous and frightening than those who watch very little. Heavy viewers are less trustful of their fellow citizens, and more fearful of the real world. Since most TV “action-adventure” dramas occur in urban settings, the fear they inspire may contribute to the current flee of the middle class from our cities. The fear may also bring increasing demands for police protection, and election of law-and-order politicians.While none of us is completely dependent upon television for our view of the world, neither have many of us had the opportunity to observe the reality of police stations, courtrooms, corporate board rooms, or hospital operating rooms. Although critics complain about the fixed characters and plots of TV dramas, many viewers look on them as representative of the real world. Anyone who questions that statement should read the 250,000 letters, most containing requests for medical advice, sent by viewers to “Marcus Welby, M.D.” —a popular TV drama series about a doctor— during the first five years of his practice on TV.Violence on television leads viewers to regard the real world as more dangerous than it really is, which must also influence the way people behave. When asked, “Can most people be trusted?” the heavy viewers were 35 percent more likely to choose “Can’t be too careful.”Victims, like criminals, must learn their proper roles, and televised violence may perform the teaching function all too well. Instead of worrying only about whether television violence causes individual displays of aggression in the real world, we should also be concerned about social reality. Passive acceptance ofviolence may result from far greater social concern than occasional displays of individual aggression.We have found that violence on prime-time(黄金时段)network TV cultivates overstated threat of danger in the real world. The overstated sense of risk and insecurity may lead to increasing demands for protection, and to increasing pressure for the use of force by established authority. Instead of threatening the social order, television may have become our chief instrument of social control.【小题1】Which of the following is NOT among the consequences of watching TV too much?A. Distrusting people around.B. Moving into rural areas.C. Asking the police for protection.D. supporting more politicians.【小题2】According to the passage, why did “Marcus Welby, M.D.” receive so many letters?A. Because viewers believed the doctor did exist in the real life.B. Because certain TV programmers recommended him to viewers.C. Because he was an experienced doctor and saved many lives.D. Because the TV appealed to people to pay attention to health.【小题3】According to the author, _________ is mainly to blame for people’s fear of the r eal world.A. network TVB. social realityC. individual display of violenceD. televised violenceBThe practice of students endlessly copying letters and sentences from a blackboard is a thing of the past. With the coming of new technologies like computers and smart phone, writing by hand has become something of nostalgic (怀旧的)skill. However, while today’s educators are using more and more technology in their teaching, many believe basic handwriting skills are still necessary for students to be successful---both in school and in life.Virginia Berninger, professor of educational psychology at the University of Washington, says it’s important to continue teaching handwriting and help children acquire the skill of writing by hand.Berninger and her colleagues conducted a study that looked at the ability of students to complete various writing tasks---both on a computer and by hand. The study, published in 2009, found that when writing with a pen and paper, participants wrote longer essays and more complete sentences and had a faster wordproduction rate.In a more recent study, Berninger looked at what role spelling plays in a student’s writing skills and foun d that how well children spell is tied to know well they can write. “Spelling makes some of the thinking parts of the brain active which helps us access our vocabulary, word meaning and concepts. It is allowing our written language to connect with ideas.” Berninger said.Spelling helps students translate ideas into words in their mind first and then to transcribe (转换) “those words in the mind written symbols on paper or keyboard and screen,” the study said. Seeing the words in the “mind’s eye” helps childre n not only to turn their ideas into words, says Berninger, but also to spot (发现) spelling mistakes when they write the words down and to correct then over time.“In our computer age, some people believe that we don’t have to teach spelling because we have spell checks,” she said. “But until a child has a functional spelling ability of about a fifth grade level, they won’t have the knowledge to choose the correct spelling among the options given by the computer.”1. What makes writing by hand a thing of the past? ______________.A. The absence of blackboard in classroom.B. The use of new technologies in teaching.C. The lack of practice in handwriting.D. The popular use of smartphones.2. Berninger’s study published in 2009 ___________.A. focused on the difference between writing by hand and on a computer.B. indicated that students prefer to write with a pen and paper.C. found that good essays are made up of long sentences.D. discussed the importance of writing speed.3. Which of the following best shows the role of spelling? ______________.A. Spelling improves one’s memory of words.B. Spelling ability is closely related to writing ability.C. Spelling benefits the translation from words into ideas.D. Spelling slows down finding exact words to express ideas.4. What does “mind’s eye” in paragraph 5 mean? ______________.A. Window.B. SoulC. Picture.D. Imagination.CBritain’s private schools are one of its most successful exports.The children of the well-off flock to them,whether from China,Nigeria or Russia :the number of foreign pupils rose by 1.4%in the last year alone.Yet foreign students,whether educated in British private schools or elsewhere,are decreasingly likely to go to English universities.According to the Higher Education Funding Council for England,307,200 overseas students began their studies in the country in 2012-13,down from 312,000 two years earlier and the first drop in 29 years.Student numbers from the rest of the European Union(EU)fell—probably a result of the increase in annual tuition fees in England from £6,000($10,000)a year to £9,000.But arrivals from India and Pakistan declined most sharply.In contrast to the visa system for private schools,which is extremely loose(the Home Office counts private schools as favoured sponsors),student visas have been tightened.Foreign students used to be allowed to work for up to two years after graduating.They now have only four months to find a job paying up to £20,600 if they want to stay in Britain.This change was intended to deal with fake colleges offering two-year work visas.But it seems to have put off serious students too.Nick Hillman of the Higher Education Policy Institute says the government has sent unclear messages about the sort of immigration it wants to restrict.Australia and America,which have more relaxed entry criteria for students,are becoming more favoured destinations.Britain’s student-visa system bas become more onerous(繁琐) overall.As a result,Britain is losing out to other countries in the contest for talent.Its unwelcoming attitude will harm its long-term development.And the drift of foreign students from leading British private schools to American colleges may have another, somewhat happier,consequence:America might become rather better at cricket(板球).1.What’s the aim of UK tightening its student visas?[]A.To control the student number from India and Pakistan.B.To increase the financial income of UK.C.To send clear messages about the sort of immigration.D.To deal with fake colleges that offer‘two-year work visas.2.Why is it easy to get the visa from private schools in Britain?A.Because private schools have bad quality of education.B.Because graduates from private schools can earn£20,600.C.Because private schools turn in more money to the Home Office.[]D.Because their students can work for two years after graduating.3.According to the passage,Britain________.A.is famous for playing cricketB.will get more talents in the future[学&科&]C.will simplify its student-visa systemD.will help US colleges to develop cricket4.What can we infer from the text?A.Foreign students are going off English universities.B.American universities are of higher quality than English ones.C.Britain’s student-visa system will help its long-term development.D.Britain’s new student-visa system is popular with foreign students.DEven in a weak job market, the old college try isn’t the answer for everyone. A briefing paper from the Brookings Institution warns that “we may have overdone the message” on college, senior fellow Isabel Sawhill said.“We’ve been telling students and their families for years that college is the only way to succeed in the economy and of course there’s a lot of truth to that,” Ms. Sawhill said. “On average it does pay off… But if you load up on a whole lot of student debt and then you don’t graduate, that is a very bad situation.”One comment that people often repeat among the years of slow job growth has been the value of education for landing a job and advancing in a career. April’s national unemployment rate stood at 7.5%, according to the Labor Department. The unemployment rate for high-school graduates over 25 years old who hadn’t attended college was 7.4%, compared with 3.9% for those with a bachelor’s degree or more education. The difference is even bigger among those aged 16-24. The jobless rate for those with only a high school diploma in that age group is about 20%. At the same time, recent research by Canadianeconomists warns that a college degree is no guarantee of promising employment.Ms. Sawhill pointed out that among the aspects that affect the value of a college education is the field of one’s major: students in engineeri ng or other sciences end up earning more than those who major in the arts or education. The cost of tuition and the availability of financial aid are other considerations, with public institutions generally a better financial bargain than private ones.She suggested two ways of improving the situation: increasing vocational-technical(职业技能) training programs and taking a page from Europe’s focus on early education rather than post-secondary learning. “The European countries put a little more attention to getting people prepared in the primary grades,” she said. “Then they have a higher requirement for whoever goes to college—but once you get into college, you’re more likely to be highly subsidized(资助).”She also is a supporter of technical training—to teach students how to be workers, such as plumbers, welders and computer programmers—because “employers are desperate” for workers with these skills.1. People usually think that _____.A. the cost of technical schooling is a problemB. one will not succeed without a college degreeC. technical skills are most important for landing a jobD. there is an increased competition in getting into a college2. What does the underlined part “taking a page from” mean?A. hearing from.B. changing from.C. differing from.D. learning from.3. What can we infer from the passage?A. Public institutions charge more for education.B. European universities are stricter with students.C. Students with certain skills are in great demand.D. Canadian students prefer to major in engineering.4. Which would be the best title for the text?A. Is the ‘Go to College’ message overdone?B. The new requirement of Labor MarketC. Primary education in European countriesD. Is technical training more popular?第二节(共3小题,每小题3分,满分15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。

AThese days having a best friend seems so important to girls. However I have learned that having one best friend is not the way to go. It's so much better to have many great friends.As I was coming into Middle School, I was really excited because my friend Jennifer was going to be in the same Middle School! At first things were great, she introduced me to her friend Amy and we had lots of fun together. Then things started to change. Jennifer was very controlling: I couldn't make new friends, and pretty soon being Jennifer's friend was a struggle.Jennifer wanted to be the "leader" of our little group. Amy and I were never partners with each other in class projects or gym; it was always, "Who gets the privilege(特权)of being Jennifer's partner." Amy and I both wanted to be Jennifer's number one.I always waited for Jennifer and Amy after classes. They chatted by Jennifer's desk as Jennifer packed her books up and I waited by the door. Sometimes when they left, they'd walk right past me. No "Thanks for waiting." No "Sorry we took so long." It was as if they couldn't even see me.After months of living through school this way, I had really changed. I was moody, depressed, lonely. I spent lots of days trying not to cry, I felt so left out.Finally, near the very end of the school year, I was so incredibly sick of having to battle for friendship.I stopped sitting with Jennifer at lunch and stopped waiting for her after class.It was tough at first, but now, I have tons of friends. We have fun and happy times together and I love them all to bits. It amazes me how easy our friendship is. There's no struggling to be on top. I wish Jennifer could understand. Maybe one day she'll look back at what happened and she'll change, but even though I lost a friend, I am a happier person.21. What is the purpose of the writer writing this passage?A. to describe her school lifeB. to criticize the way Jennifer treated her friendsC. to show her regret towards losing a friend.D. to advise girls to make many friends instead of one22.What does the sentence “Things started to change” refer to?A. The writer lost interest in study.B. Lessons became more and more difficult.C. Being Jennifer‟s friend became a struggle.D. The writer gave up the friendship with Jennifer.23. What can be implied from the last paragraph?A. The writer regretted a lot about losing a friend.B. Jennifer has changed herself.C. All of t he writer‟s new friends are equ al.D. The school life is always difficult for the writer.BIs packing important to you?A young man was ready to graduate from college. For many months he had admired a beautiful sports car. Knowing his father could well afford it, he told him that was all he wanted.As Graduation Day approached, his anxiety grew. Finally, on the morning of his graduation, his father called him into his study and handed him a beautiful wrapped gift box. Curious, but somewhat disappointed, the young man opened the box and found a lovely, leather-bound Bible, with the young man's name embossed in gold. Angrily, he raised his voice and said, "With all your money you give me a Bible?", then stormed out of the house, leaving the Bible.Many years passed and the young man was very successful in business. He had a beautiful home and a wonderful family. Realizing his father was very old, he thought perhaps he should go to see him. He had not seen him since that graduation day. Then, a telegram arrived, telling him his father had passed away, and willed all his possessions to the son.When he arrived at home, sudden sadness and regret filled his heart. He began to search through his father's important papers and saw the still new Bible, just as he had left it years ago. With tears, he opened the bible and turned the pages. From the back of the Bible dropped a car key. It had a tag with the dealer's name and the words… "PAID IN FULL".How many times do we miss blessings because they are not packaged as we expected? Remember, what may appear as bad fortune may in fact be the door that is just waiting to be opened.24.As graduation day approached the young man became anxious, because______.A. the young man‟s father was seriously ill.B. he was anxious to know whether he had passed the exams.C. he was anxiously waiting for the new carD. he felt upset to leave college25.

For a while, silence fell.“I thought that we had a lot of topics to share, but few people were really interested in talking,” she said. “It seemed that there‟s a big gap between me and those with hand-held devices (设备)” .Shuai is not the only one feeling segregated from others by mobile technology. According to a latest survey of hundreds of teenagers in Hong Kong 54.29 percent of them would use cellphones while having dinner with their families. It has affected relationships with their parents. It suggests that while technology such as cell phones, e-mails, and Internet posting has made us feel more connected than ever, they‟re also driving us away from people around us.Sherry Turkle, author of the article in The New York Times says people are now used to a new way of b eing “alone together.”Actually, sending text messages or writing micro blogs allows us to exchange thoughts. But online connection cannot replace a “real conversation”.Lan Guo, 19, a freshman English major from Changsha University, said that she would like to hear people‟s voice and see their faces in a conversation. “The exchange of ideas in a conversation sharpens our minds,” she said. She also mentions that burying ourselves in mobile technology reduces our chance of starting conversations with strangers and meeting people.However, experts remind us that it‟s unfair to blame mobile technology. Chen Chen, a sociology expert points out that, it is still the mobile owners who‟re avoiding personal contact.We ourselves use these devices to hide ourselves from others. Texting or calling may be an excuse to avoid contact with others, such as having eye contact. “The way to improve conversation is by understanding each other. Simply throwing away mobilephones is not a solution,” she said.32.The best title for the passage would be “_____________”.A. Mobilephone addictionB. Development of mobile technologyC. An unhappy high school friends meetingD. It is the cellphone that ends a real conversation33.The underlined word “segregated”in Paragraph 3 means “_________”A. preventedB. separatedC. protectedD. injured34. Which of the following statements is not true according to Chen Chen?A. It is the mobile users that are to blame for the death of conversation.B. Mobile users avoid real contact with others by sending messages or calling.C. Only by totally forgetting mobile phones can we solve the problem.D. We can better conversation by means of understanding each other.35. Who thinks the exchange of thoughts in a real conversation make us cleverer?A. Shuai YunyunB. Sherry TurkleC. Lan GuoD. Chen Chen第二节(共5小题;每小题3分,满分15 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。
