A．barrier．B．attraction．C．honour．D．difficulty．24．Why does the author write the article?A．To advertise Staybridge Suites．B．To introduce four recent visitors．C．To inform us of a new service．D．To sing high praise for the staff．BWhen a leafy plant is under attack，it doesn't sit quietly．Back in 1983，two scientists，Jack Schultz and Ian Baldwin，reported that young maple trees getting bitten by insects send out a particular smell that neighboring plants can get．These chemicals come from the injured parts of the plant and seem to be an alarm．What the plants pump through the air is a mixture of chemicals known as volatile organic compounds，VOCs for short．Scientists have found that all kinds of plants give out VOCs when being attacked．It's a plant's way of crying out．But is anyone listening？Apparently．Because we can watch the neighbors react．Some plants pump out smelly chemicals to keep insects away．But others do double duty．They pump out perfumes designed to attract different insects who are natural enemies to the attackers．Once they arrive，the tables are turned．The attacker who was lunching now becomes lunch．In study after study，it appears that these chemical conversations help the neighbors．The damage is usually more serious on the first plant，but the neighbors，relatively speaking，stay safer because they heard the alarm and knew what to do．Does this mean that plants talk to each other？Scientists don't know．Maybe the first plant just made a cry of pain or was sending a message to its own branches，and so，in effect，was talking to itself．Perhaps the neighbors just happened to"overhear"the cry．So information was exchanged，but it wasn't a true，intentional back and forth．Charles Darwin，over 150 years ago，imagined a world far busier，noisier and more intimate（亲密的）than the world we can see and hear．Our senses are weak．There's a whole lot going on．25．What does a plant do when it is under attack?A．It makes noises．B．It gets help from other plants．C．It stands quietly．D．It sends out certain chemicals．26．What does the author mean by"the tables are turned"in paragraph 3?A．The attackers get attacked．B．The insects gather under the table．C．The plants get ready to fight back．D．The perfumes attract natural enemies．27．Scientists find from their studies that plants can．A．predict natural disasters B．protect themselves against insectsC．talk to one another intentionally D．help their neighbors when necessary28．What can we infer from the last paragraph?A．The world is changing faster than ever．B．People have stronger senses than before．C．The world is more complex than it seems．D．People in Darwin's time were more imaginative．CBenjamin West，the father of American painting，showed his talent for art when he was only six years of age．But he did not know about brushes before a visitor told him he needed one．In those days，a brush was made from camel's hair．There were no camels nearby．Benjamin decided that cat hair would work instead．He cut some fur from the family cat to make a brush．The brush did not last long．Soon Benjamin needed more fur．Before long，the cat began to look ragged（蓬乱）．His father said that the cat must be sick．Benjamin was forced to admit what he had been doing．The cat's lot was about to improve. That year，one of Benjamin's cousins, Mr．Pennington，came to visit．He was impressed with Benjamin's drawings．When he went home, he sent Benjamin a box of paint and some brushes. He also sent six engravings （版画）by an artist. These were the first pictures and first real paint and brushes Benjamin had ever seen.In 1747，when Benjamin was nine years old，Mr. Pennington returned for another visit. He wasamazed at what Benjamin had done with his gift. He asked Benjamin's parents if he might take the boy to Philadelphia for a visit．In the city，Mr．Pennington gave Benjamin materials for creating oil paintings．The boy began a landscape （风景）painting．Wiliams, a well﹣known painter，came to see him work．Wiliams was impressed with Benjamin and gave him two classic books on painting to take home．The books were long and dull．Benjamin could read only a little，having been a poor student．But he later said，"Those two books were my companions by day，and under my pillow at night．"While it is likely that he understood very little of the books，they were his introduction to classical paintings．The nine﹣year﹣old boy decided then that he would be an artist．29．What is the text mainly about?A．Benjamin's visit to Philadelphia．B．Williams' influence on Benjamin．C．The beginning of Benjamin's life as an artist．D．The friendship between Benjamin and Pennington．30．What does the underlined sentence in paragraph 3 suggest?A．The cat would be closely watched．B．The cat would get some medical care．C．Benjamin would leave his home shortly．D．Benjamin would have real brushes soon．31．What did Pennington do to help Benjamin develop his talent?A．He took him to see painting exhibitions．B．He provided him with painting materials．C．He sent him to a school in Philadelphia．D．He taught him how to make engravings．32．Williams' two books helped Benjamin to．A．master the use of paints B．appreciate landscape paintingsC．get to know other painters D．make up his mind to be a painter．DGetting less sleep has become a bad habit for most American kids．According to a new survey（调查）by the National Sleep Foundation，51% of kids aged 10 to 18 go to bed at 10 pm or later on school nights，even though they have to get up early．Last year the Foundation reported that nearly 60% of 7﹣to 12﹣year﹣olds said they felt tired during the day，and 15% said they had fallen asleep at school．How much sleep you need depends a lot on your age．Babies need a lot of rest：most of them sleep about 18 hours a day!Adults need about eight hours．For most school﹣age children，ten hours is ideal （理想的）．But the new National Sleep Foundation survey found that 35% of 10﹣to 12﹣year﹣olds get only seven or eight hours．And guess what almost half of the surveyed kids said they do before bedtime？Watch TV．"More children are going to bed with TVs on，and there are more opportunities（机会）to stay awake，with more homework，the Internet and the phone，"says Dr．Mary Carskadon，a sleep researcher at Brown University Medical School．She says these activities at bedtime can get kids all excited and make it hard for them to calm down and sleep．Other experts say part of the problem is chemical．Changing levels of body chemicals called hormones not only make teenagers' bodies develop adult characteristics，but also make it hard for teenagers to fall asleep before 11 pm．Because sleepiness is such a problem for teenagers，some school districts have decided to start high school classes later than they used to．Three years ago，schools in Edina，Minnesota，changed the start time from 7：25 am to 8：30 am．Students，parents and teachers are pleased with the results．33．What is the new National Sleep Foundation survey on？A．American kids' sleeping habits．B．Teenagers' sleep﹣related diseases．C．Activities to prevent sleeplessness．D．Learning problems and lack of sleep．34．How many hours of sleep do 11﹣year﹣olds need every day？A.7 hours．B.8 hours．C.10 hours．D.18 hours．35．Why do teenagers go to sleep late according to Carskadon？A．They are affected by certain body chemicals.B．They tend to do things that excite them．C．They follow their parents' examples．D．They don't need to go to school early．第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）Lots of people find it hard to get up in the morning and put the blame on the alarm clock．In fact，the key to easy morning wake﹣up lies in resting your body clock (36)_________. Here's how to make one．●(37)In order to make a change，you need to decide why it's important．Do you want to get up in time to have breakfast with your family，get in some exercise，or just be better prepared for your day？Once you are clear about your reasons，tell your family or roommates about the change you want to make．●Rethink mornings．Now that you know why you want to wake up，consider re﹣arranging your morning activities．If you want time to have breakfast with your family，save some time the night before by setting out clothes，shoes，and bags．(38)__________That's a quarter﹣hour more you could be sleeping if you bought a coffee maker with a timer．●Keep your sleep/wake schedule on weekends．If you're tired out by Friday night，sleeping in on Saturday could sound wonderful．But compensating on the weekends actually feeds into your sleepinessthe following week，a recent study found．(39)●Keep a record and evaluate it weekly．Keep track of your efforts and write down how you feel．After you've tried a new method for a week，take a look at your record．(40)If not，take another look at other methods you could try．A．Get a sleep specialist．B．Find the right motivation．C．A better plan for sleep can help．D．And consider setting a second alarm．E．If the steps you take are working，keep it up．F．Stick to your set bedtime and wake﹣up time，no matter the day．G．Reconsider the 15 minutes you spend in line at the café to get coffee．第三部分语言知识运用（共两节，满分30分）When I came to my new school three years ago，I was surprised at how lonely I felt．Then one of my classmates invited me to her house for a dinner (41)．I was a little anxious，but finally I gladly (42)．Not really knowing how (43)the bus ride should be，I (44)when I saw the landmarks (45)on my friend's hand﹣drawn map．But when I got close enough to the (46)，I found none of the streets were shown on the map．I was (47)on a busy road with cars driving past without a person in sight．I had no (48)when the next bus would come，(49) when a bus did come by，I (50) got on．I told the bus driver where I wanted to go and he said that I had caught the (51)bus，but he let me stay on．After he had finished his scheduled bus route，he (52)to help me out．I gratefully showed him my little hand﹣drawn map but (53) did not help much．He finally (54)me off at a main road to catch a different bus and was (55) that he could not help me more．After a few minutes of walking，I noticed a bus pull up beside me．It was the (56)bus driver．He explained that he didn't want to leave me there (57)．He sent out a call and someone radioed back，saying that the bus I needed to catch was about ten minutes away．At last I made it to the dinner party(58)I was over an hour late．I am forever thankful for the (59)that this bus driver had for me．His act of kindness left a(60)on my heart．41．A．meal B．party C．meeting D．time42．A．accepted B．refused C．got D．received43．A．far B．difficult C．long D．bad44．A．drove on B．walked away C．hurried by D．got off45．A．show B．showing C．shown D．to show46．A．street signs B．tall buildings C．traffic lights D．back yards47．A．queuing B．sitting C．standing D．waiting48．A．meaning B．idea C．problem D．way49．A．so B．yet C．but D．still50．A．suddenly B．luckily C．finally D．quickly51．A．right B．wrong C．best D．fastest52．A．supplied B．refused C．offered D．wanted53．A．it B．he C．she D．they54．A．kept B．dropped C．drove D．turned55．A．eager B．worried C．sorry D．disappointed56．A．same B．next C．kind D．silly57．A．helpless B．lonely C．unaccompanied D．alone58．A．after B．although C．until D．when59．A．respect B．concern C．sympathy D．love60．A．mark B．sign C．symbol D．line第二部分（共10小题；每小题1.5分，满分15分）Before I came to England，I（61）________（read）about English customs．I knew that the money they used（62）_______（call）pounds and pence．It was quite (63)______ shock when I bought a newspaper at the airport，and the woman behind the counter said，"That'll be 2quid，love"．I made a quick calculation and decided (64)_______ （hand ）over two￡1coins．Imagine my(65)_______ (relieve) when she said"Ta，love"．I didn't know what that meant either，but at least she was smiling，so I must have got the money right．I soon learned that a"quid"is a pound．There are several(66)_______ (explain) for this，but the one I like(67)_______ (well) is that"quid"comes from"Quidhamptom Mill"，(68)_______ used to produce the special paper that pound notes were printed on．Just when I thought I had got used (69)_______ English money，I saw the following advertisement in a local newspaper："Wanted：Sales Clerk，London Area，￡25k"．I was totally(70)_______(confuse)．I knew from my computer course that"k"meant"kilobyte"．A few days later, a friend explained the mystery．The advertisement was not for a 25﹣kilobyte clerk，but for a clerk who would earn￡25，000a year．短文改错It was on Sunday so I didn’t have to go to school as usually. My parents went to the countryside to see my grandparents, left me alone. After finishing my homework, I begin to play football at home. All of a sudden, I kicked the ball so hardly that it flew right onto a vase and broke it. It was great favorite of my mother’s.

Instead of punishing me, they just hoped that I would never make so a foolish mistake again.书面表达假如你是育才中学学生会主席李华，你校将举办一次英语演讲比赛，希望附近某大学外籍教师Smith女士来做评委。
