I went down from Shubentsov’s office doorstep, picked them up and pocketed them. Later, in a bar, when I opened the first pack, I found—to my 41 ---the twenty cigarettes were there.I’m still at the bar, telephone in one 42 and the cigarettes in the other. I’m dialing Shubentsov, who told me to call the moment I felt the urge to 43 . I feel it, feel it even 44 than I felt Shubentsov’s healing energy. That’s saying something, since Shubentsov is known around the world for __45 smokers of their nasty habit, using a 46 method. He sent his healing energy from his fingertips, he tells me – something he picked up from another man in Russia. “I help you for free,” he told me in his muddy accent. “Just call me 47 .”I went to see Shubentsov. I think it’s time to 48 because I’m getting old, and I can’t keep doing this to myself. But here’s the real problem. I should quit, but like a lot of you 49 with the same habit, I really don’t want to.Smoking has been very good to me. Cigarettes have never let me down, never abandoned me on 50 , desperate nights. Smoking 51 my head, helps me 52 . Smoking has started conversations, driven away annoying people. Smoking helps me celebrate victories, get over losses, comfort the comfortless. It also chases away the mosquitoes.I will 53 . Soon. My body and my mind are demanding that daily.I claim to smoke for pleasure, but I realise that slowly I’m losing control of this close, special friend. I 54 that. I realise it’s not just a “habit”. I’m 55 .So here I am, attempting to 56 again, at Shubentsov’s place. I’ve tried all the other quitting techniques 57 . Anytime the urge to smoke 58 , he said, just call him immediately and he’ll help. The funny thing is, I realise that I’m not phoning him to stop me from lighting up. I’m phoning him so I can. If I call, I’ll have done my part. Then I can smoke this cigarette. Besides, I know that at 9.30 on a Friday night, I’ll get the answering machine. I do. “The office is open from ten to four. Call me back then. This machine does not take mess ages.”I put the phone down and I can honestly say I’m 59 . You see, it’s not Shubentsov’s fault or anyone else’s fault that I’m still 40 . It’s mine.Now if you’ll excuse me, I’m going to smoke this cigarette. Whether I’ll really enjoy it, though, is another story.41. A. sadness B. disappointment C. inspirationD. delight42. A. pack B. hand C. pocket D. bar43. A. smoke B. talk C. drinkD. dial44. A. weaker B. faster C. strongerD. harder45. A. accusing B. helping C. developingD. curing46.

Every morning her ten-year-old boy puts up one finger with his eyes still closed, begging for one more minute to sleep.Why is he so sleepy? Because, like t housands of student “early birds” in China, he has to get up before 6 a.m. every morning.School students usually need eight to ten hours’ sleep a night. But in Shanghai, it’s reported that 90% of the students do not get enough sleep. And studies show that without a good night’s sleep, students seem to be weaker than they should be. Many become near-sighted as a result.Li Ming, a student at Qinghua High School, said that he usually goes to bed after 11 p.m. But when he has exams coming up, he can stay up a s late as midnight. This “night bird” lifestyle has made many students nod off in class. Li Ming said that it is during afternoon classes that he feel most sleepy. “My parents are usually happy to see me studying so late,” he said. “They think I work very hard and they make me cups of coffee.”However, not all parents are happy about this. “My daughter gets up so early. She looks tired and it really hurts me.” said one of the parents. Why don’t so many students get enough sleep? Now many members of society began to think about it.61. The ten-year-old boy’s mother talked about waking up her son with tears in her eyes because ________.A. her son’s lack of sleep hurt her but she had to wake him upB. her son wasn’t good at lessonsC. she thought her son was too lazyD. her son was badly ill62. For school students, lack of sleep may lead to_______.A. the body’s weaknessB. nodding off in classC. near-sighted eyesD. all the above63. Li Ming’s mother is________ to s ee him studying lateA. sorry.B. worried.C. not unhappy.D. angry.64.Which one is True according to the passage?A. All the parents hope their children stay up.B. No students complain about their lack of sleep.C. Most students watch TV or play computer games deep into night.D. Some parents are worried about the fact that most of the students don’t have enough sleep.BIf you ask me for my biggest impression of what America’s like over the last three years, I’d say it is how rich and diverse the student life is. For example, at Princeton, we have more than 100 student organizations planning all knids of campus activities—from sports, band dancing to juggling and acting to translation, design, publishing, volunteering and camping. You name it.During my freshmen year, I tried a lot of activities, from dancing to design to newspapers. Then I found my passion in the environment and volunteerism. I joined Greening Princeton and Student Volunteer Council. A year later, I’d beco me the publicity chair and project coordinator (协调员)of these two clubs.Student activities give us a chance to do things we care about and are good at. If we have good idea, we can propose it at a meeting, find interested people to form a team, then apply for funding from the school. We have full control of the project and the ability to make our ideas happen. For example, I came up with the idea of Daylight Dining and was supported by my clubGreening Princeton. I wrote a proposal, presented it in front of the college master, and communicated with the head of Dining Services. After a few follow-ups, this project was carried out.One other benefit of extra curricular(课外的)activities is the friendship that comes with them. Once you become part of a group, it is much easier to adjust to college life. You realize you are not alone. This will most likely increase your study efficiency and in turn help your academics. My h eadmaster once told me: “Stand on your tiptoes.” In that way, we not only have a better view of life, but will also put out our comfort zone. Getting involved in extra curricular activities has given me the opportunity to stand on my tiptoes.Make yourself try new things and stick to the things that matter to you. This is one piece of advice I have. Remember, college is a color palette. You are the artist who can add your own colors.65. The author mentions one hundred student organizations to show__________.A. students are free to learn their majorB. student activities are colorful thereC. each organization belongs to a collegeD. students have to join in one of them66. Which of the following is true according to the passage?A. Students can do what they care about and good at in class.B. Taking part in the activities after class has three advantages.C. Students can balance their college life with these activities.D. Each of the students has to take part in more than two items.67. The purpose of the passage is to ________.A. show off the authorB. advertise the schoolC. say something interestingD. introduce college lifeCFor years scientists have been worried about he effects of air pollutio n on the earth’s natural conditions. Some believe the air inside many houses may be more dangerous than the air outside. It may be one hundred times worse.Indoor air pollution can cause a person to feel tired, to suffer eye-pain, headache and other problems. Some pollutants(污染物)can cause breathing disorders, diseases of blood and even cancer, Most scientists agree that every modern house has some kind of indoor pollution.People have paid more attention to the problem now. It is that when builders began making houses and offices they did not waste energy. To do this they built buildings that limited the flow of air between inside and outside. They also began using man-made building materials. These materials are now known to let out harmful gases.As the problem became more serious, scientists began searching for a way to deal with it. They discovered a natural pollution control system for building― green plants. Scientists do not really know how plants control air pollution. They believe that a plant’s leaves absorb or take in the pollutants. In exchange the plant lets out oxygen through its leaves and through its tiny organizations on its roots. Scientists suggest that all buildings should have one large plant or several small plants inside for every nine square metres of space. Studies of different plants show that each absorbs different chemicals. So the most effective way to clean the air is to use different kinds of plants. Having green plants inside your house can make it a prettier and more healthy place.68. Generally speaking, indoor air pollution may be more harmful than the air outside because ________.A. indoor air pollution can often make people seriously illB. there may be more harmful gases outside the buildingsC. the air indoors is polluted, which is very harmfulD. man - made building materials give off dangerous gases69. Some kind of indoor pollution can be found in ______.A. every modern houseB. every old houseC. all kinds of houseD. all kinds of offices70. The indoor air pollution is caused by________.A. the building way that the builders want to save energyB. the man-made building materials and the limit of air-flowC. the building things that are made of man - made materialsD. the limit of the flow of air between inside and outside71. The reason why we should use different kinds of plants to clean the air is that ________.A. plants can let out all kinds of pollutants indoorsB. plants may take in more oxygen which people needC. plants can absorb all kinds of harmful indoor chemicalsD. plants can make our houses prettier and more healthyDHungry For a WinA victor is, by definition, someone who wins a struggler or contest. However, that doesn’t mean he or she will live a proud and happy life ever after, as Katniss Everdeen is about to discover in The Hunger Games: Catching Fire.Catching Fire, out in Chinese theaters on Nov 21, is set in a futuristic society called Panem. Every year its government holds a televised fight to the death. Two teenagers from each of the 12 districts of Panem are chosen to compete.In the new film, last year’s victors Katniss (Jennifer Lawrence) and her partner Peeta are back home after winning the 74th Hunger Games. Katniss just wants to live a normal life. However, that never seems to happen. She has nightmares, which remind her that she is a killer.Her worst nightmare comes true when the annual Hunger Games arrive again. The teenager finds herself back in the competition along with Peeta. Since Katniss brings hope to Panem through her courage, President Snow plans to use this year’s Games to kill off Katniss and Peeta and in turn dampen the fires of rebellion(反叛).“This is the next step of Katniss’ heroism and the next part of her journey to finding out who she is really going to be,” Lawrence told Reuters.Fast-paced and full of action, Catching Fire looks to outdo the success that the first film had in 2012. With a 97 percent rating on the movie review website Rotten Tomatoes, it is enjoying positive reviews. Critics have praised it for being faithful to the book written by American author Suzanne Collins. The Hollywood Reporter said that Catching Fire outshines the first movie a lot.Jennifer Lawrence, who won a best actress Oscar this year for her 2012 movie Silver Linings Playbook, has helped Catching Fire find success, Forbes pointed out. The 23-year-old actress does well playing a young lady who hates what she was forced to do to stay alive yet is determined not to give up.“Lawrence’s down-to-earth personality in real life won the hearts of the public. So given a wildly popular first film that blew everyone away, a rising fan base and a lead performer beloved by the mainstream press and viewers, the sequel(续集) was always going to be big,” Forbes noted.72. The underlined word “dampen” in Paragraph 4 is closest in meaning to “_______”.A. holdB. lightC. reduceD. support73. Which of the following is TRUE about the film’s sto ry according to the article?A. Every year 12 teenagers in total are chosen to join in the televised fight.B. Despite having won the 74th Hunger Games, Katniss doesn’t feel much joy.C. Katniss and Peeta are chosen once again to make the TV show more appealing.D. Jennifer Lawrence won a best actress Oscar this year for the first Hunger Games movie.74. What are some reasons why Catching Fire will probably be successful?a. The previous film was successful.b. It is true to the original book’s story.c. Most of the reviews of the movie are positive.d. It has many famous stars in addition to Jennifer Lawrence.A. abcB. abdC. acdD. bcd75. After reading the passage, we can infer that _______.A. President Snow th inks highly of Katniss and Peeta’s victoryB. Katniss decides to fight in the 75th Hunger Games because she loves itC. Critics hold a negative attitude to the first movie of Hunger GamesD. The personality of the leading actress contributes to the success of Catching Fire五、任务型阅读(每题1分,共10题,计10分)No one can avoid being influenced by advertisements. Much as we may pride ourselves on our good taste, we are no longer free to choose the things we want, for advertising exerts(施加) a subtle influence on us. In their efforts to persuade us to buy this or that product, advertisers have made a close study of human nature and have classified (分类)all our little weaknesses. Advertisers discovered years ago that all of us love to get something for nothing. An advertisement which begins with the magic word FREE can rarely go wrong. These days, advertisers not only offer free samples but free cars, free houses, and free trips round the worldas well. They devise hundreds of competitions which will enable us to win huge sums of money. Radio and television have made it possible for advertisers to capture the attention of millions of people in this way.During a radio program, a company of biscuit manufacturers once asked listeners to bake biscuits and send them to their factory. They offered to pay $10 a pound for the biggest biscuit baked by a listener. The response to this competition was tremendous. Before long, biscuits of all shapes and sizes began arriving at the factory. One lady brought in a biscuit on a wheelbarrow. It weighed nearly 500 pounds. All the biscuits that were sent were carefully weighed. The largest was 713 pounds. It seemed certain that this would win the prize. But just before the competition closed, a lorry arrived at the factory with a truly colossal biscuit which weighed 2,400 pounds. It had been baked by a college student who had used over 1,000 pounds of flour, 800 pounds of sugar, 200 pounds of fat, and 400 pounds of various other ingredients. The factory had to pay more money than they had expected, for they bought the biscuit from the student for $24,000.六、单词1.This __________(安排) is quite satisfactory, so far as I am concerned.2.

I went down from Shubentsov’s office doorstep, picked them up and pocketed them. Later, in a bar, when I opened the first pack, I found—to my 41 ---the twenty cigarettes were there.I’m still at the bar, telephone in one 42 and the cigarettes in the other. I’m dialing Shubentsov, who told me to call the moment I felt the urge to 43 . I feel it, feel it even 44 than I felt Shubentsov’s healing energy. That’s saying something, since Shubentsov is known around the world for __45 smokers of their nasty habit, using a 46 method. He sent his healing energy from his fingertips, he tells me – something he picked up from another man in Russia. “I help you for free,” he told me in his muddy accent. “Just call me 47 .”I went to see Shubentsov. I think it’s time to 48 because I’m getting old, and I can’t keep doing this to myself. But here’s the real problem. I should quit, but like a lot of you 49 with the same habit, I really don’t want to.Smoking has been very good to me. Cigarettes have never let me down, never abandoned me on 50 , desperate nights. Smoking 51 my head, helps me 52 . Smoking has started conversations, driven away annoying people. Smoking helps me celebrate victories, get over losses, comfort the comfortless. It also chases away the mosquitoes.I will 53 . Soon. My body and my mind are demanding that daily.I claim to smoke for pleasure, but I realise that slowly I’m losing control of this close, special friend. I 54 that. I realise it’s not just a “habit”. I’m 55 .So here I am, attempting to 56 again, at Shubentsov’s place. I’ve tried all the other quitting techniques 57 . Anytime the urge to smoke 58 , he said, just call him immediately and he’ll help. The funny thing is, I realise that I’m not phoning him to stop me fromlighting up. I’m phoning him so I can. If I call, I’ll have done my part. Then I can smoke this cigarette. Besides, I know that at 9.30 on a Friday night, I’ll get the answering machine. I do. “The office is open from ten to four. Call me back then. This machine does not take mes sages.”I put the phone down and I can honestly say I’m 59 . You see, it’s not Shubentsov’s fault or anyone else’s fault that I’m still 40 . It’s mine.Now if you’ll excuse me, I’m going to smoke this cigarette. Whether I’ll really enjoy it, though, is another story.41. A. sadness B. disappointment C. inspirationD. delight42.

Every morning her ten-year-old boy puts up one finger with his eyes still closed, begging for one more minute to sleep.Why is he so sleepy? Because, like thousands of student “early birds” in China, he has to get up before 6 a.m. every morning.School students usually need eight to ten hours’ sleep a night. But in Shanghai, it’s reported that 90% of the students do not get enough sleep. And studies show tha t without a good night’s sleep, students seem to be weaker than they should be. Many become near-sighted as a result.Li Ming, a student at Qinghua High School, said that he usually goes to bed after 11 p.m. But when he has exams coming up, he can stay up as late as midnight. This “night bird” lifestyle hasmade many students nod off in class. Li Ming said that it is during afternoon classes that he feel most sleepy. “My parents are usually happy to see me studying so late,” he said. “They think I work very hard and they make me cups of coffee.”However, not all parents are happy about this. “My daughter gets up so early. She looks tired and it really hurts me.” said one of the parents. Why don’t so many students get enough sleep? Now many members of society began to think about it.61. The ten-year-old boy’s mother talked about waking up her son with tears in her eyes because ________.A. her son’s lack of sleep hurt her but she had to wake him upB. her son wasn’t good at lessonsC. she thought her son was too lazyD. her son was badly ill62. For school students, lack of sleep may lead to_______.A. the body’s weaknessB. nodding off in classC. near-sighted eyesD. all the above63. Li Ming’s mother is________ to see him studying lateA. sorry.B. worried.C. not unhappy.D. angry.64.Which one is True according to the passage?A. All the parents hope their children stay up.B. No students complain about their lack of sleep.C. Most students watch TV or play computer games deep into night.D. Some parents are worried about the fact that most of the students don’t have enough sleep.BIf you ask me for my biggest impression of what America’s like over the last three years, I’d say it is how rich and diverse the student life is. For example, at Princeton, we have more than 100 student organizations planning all knids of campus activities—from sports, band dancing to juggling and acting to translation, design, publishing, volunteering and camping. You name it.During my freshmen year, I tried a lot of activities, from dancing to design to newspapers. Then I found my passion in the environment and volunteerism. I joined Greening Princeton andStudent Volunteer Council. A year later, I’d bec ome the publicity chair and project coordinator (协调员)of these two clubs.Student activities give us a chance to do things we care about and are good at. If we have good idea, we can propose it at a meeting, find interested people to form a team, then apply for funding from the school. We have full control of the project and the ability to make our ideas happen. For example, I came up with the idea of Daylight Dining and was supported by my club Greening Princeton. I wrote a proposal, presented it in front of the college master, and communicated with the head of Dining Services. After a few follow-ups, this project was carried out.One other benefit of extra curricular(课外的)activities is the friendship that comes with them. Once you become part of a group, it is much easier to adjust to college life. You realize you are not alone. This will most likely increase your study efficiency and in turn help your academics. My headmaster once told me: “Stand on your tiptoes.” In that way, we not only have a better view of life, but will also put out our comfort zone. Getting involved in extra curricular activities has given me the opportunity to stand on my tiptoes.Make yourself try new things and stick to the things that matter to you. This is one piece of advice I have. Remember, college is a color palette. You are the artist who can add your own colors.65. The author mentions one hundred student organizations to show__________.A. students are free to learn their majorB. student activities are colorful thereC. each organization belongs to a collegeD. students have to join in one of them66. Which of the following is true according to the passage?A. Students can do what they care about and good at in class.B. Taking part in the activities after class has three advantages.C. Students can balance their college life with these activities.D. Each of the students has to take part in more than two items.67. The purpose of the passage is to ________.A. show off the authorB. advertise the schoolC. say something interestingD. introduce college lifeCFor years scientists have been worried about he effects of air pollution on the earth’s natural conditions. Some believe the air inside many houses may be more dangerous than the air outside. It may be one hundred times worse.Indoor air pollution can cause a person to feel tired, to suffer eye-pain, headache and other problems. Some pollutants(污染物)can cause breathing disorders, diseases of blood and even cancer, Most scientists agree that every modern house has some kind of indoor pollution.People have paid more attention to the problem now. It is that when builders began making houses and offices they did not waste energy. To do this they built buildings that limited the flow of air between inside and outside. They also began using man-made building materials. These materials are now known to let out harmful gases.As the problem became more serious, scientists began searching for a way to deal with it. They discovered a natural pollution control system for building― green plants. Scientists do not really know how plants control air pollution. They believe that a plant’s leaves absorb or take in the pollutants. In exchange the plant lets out oxygen through its leaves and through its tiny organizations on its roots. Scientists suggest that all buildings should have one large plant or several small plants inside for every nine square metres of space. Studies of different plants show that each absorbs different chemicals. So the most effective way to clean the air is to use different kinds of plants. Having green plants inside your house can make it a prettier and more healthy place.68. Generally speaking, indoor air pollution may be more harmful than the air outside because ________.A. indoor air pollution can often make people seriously illB. there may be more harmful gases outside the buildingsC. the air indoors is polluted, which is very harmfulD. man - made building materials give off dangerous gases69. Some kind of indoor pollution can be found in ______.A. every modern houseB. every old houseC. all kinds of houseD. all kinds of offices70. The indoor air pollution is caused by________.A. the building way that the builders want to save energyB. the man-made building materials and the limit of air-flowC. the building things that are made of man - made materialsD. the limit of the flow of air between inside and outside71. The reason why we should use different kinds of plants to clean the air is that ________.A. plants can let out all kinds of pollutants indoorsB. plants may take in more oxygen which people needC. plants can absorb all kinds of harmful indoor chemicalsD. plants can make our houses prettier and more healthyDHungry For a WinA victor is, by definition, someone who wins a struggler or contest. However, that doesn’t mean he or she will live a proud and happy life ever after, as Katniss Everdeen is about to discover in The Hunger Games: Catching Fire.Catching Fire, out in Chinese theaters on Nov 21, is set in a futuristic society called Panem. Every year its government holds a televised fight to the death. Two teenagers from each of the 12 districts of Panem are chosen to compete.In the new film, last year’s victors Katniss (Jennifer Lawrence) and her partner Peeta are back home after winning the 74th Hunger Games. Katniss just wants to live a normal life. However, that never seems to happen. She has nightmares, which remind her that she is a killer.Her worst nightmare comes true when the annual Hunger Games arrive again.
