并在答题卡上将该选项涂黑．A“I never expected that I would be so busy. Why can’t there be 25 hours in a day?” complained Liu Ran in Hong Kong as mid-term exams were going on.The 18-year-old was Shandong Province’s top scorer in this year’s college entrance examination. After graduating from Tai’an No.1 High School, she chose the Chinese University of Hong Kong(香港中文大学) ，although both Peking University and Tsinghua University promised her a place.“I want to experience a more international school and social life i n Hong Kong. I’m majoring in journalism, so Hong Kong will surely help widen my horizons,” Liu said.It is two months since Liu first set foot on Hong Kong. She missed home a lot at the beginning, because of the food and language problems.“The canteen offers mostly Western or Guangdong food, but it’s convenient to cook for ourselves in our dorm if we like. People speak Cantonese and almost all classes are in English,” Liu explained.Her English and Cantonese are now both improving, but she still needs more time to adapt to the new environment.“I’m happy that I made the right decision to study here. With a mix of the Eastern and Western cultures, there is so much to discover and learn,” she said.Liu has 18 credit hours(学分) of classes every week and 23 non-credit hours every other week. She has signed up for four associations including the Chinese LanguageDebating Team and the drama club. Essays, book reports and presentations also take plenty of time to prepare. And , of course, there are various parties to attend.“I wasn’t a party animal before, but that may be interesting part of college.I sense myself changi ng,” Liu said.1. Liu Ran chose the Chinese University of Hong Kong, because___________.A. the Chinese University of Hong Kong can widen her horizonsB.

The Chinese University of HongKongBThat year, in the local school, there was a new math teacher, as well as some new pupils. One of the new kids was the stupidest child anyone had ever seen. It made no difference how quickly or how slowly they tried explaining numbers to him; he would always end up saying something enormously stupid. Like two plus two was five, seven times three was twenty-seven, or a triangle had thirty corners….Before this boy arrived, math lessons had been the most boring of all. Now they were great fun. Encouraged by the new teacher, the children would listen to the pieces of nonsense spouted by the new kid, and they would have to correct his mistakes.Whenever the new teacher asked questions, the stupid kid would stand up but made the wrong answers, the other students all wanted to be the first to find his mistakes,and then think up the most original ways to explain them. To do this they used all kinds of stuff : sweets, playing cards, oranges, paper plane s, etc. It didn’t seem like any of this bothered the new kid.However, Littl e Lewis was sure that it was bound to make him feel sad inside. Lewis was sure he would see him crying. So, one day, he decided to follow the new kid home after school. On leaving school, the new kid walked a few minutes to a local park, and there he waited for a while, until someone came along to meet him……It was the new teacher! The teacher gave the new kid a hug, and off they went, hand in hand. Following from a distance, Lewis could hear they were talking about math.5.

In the morning light, I could see the shadows that were etched(蚀刻）deep within the lines surrounding his eyes.Each morning I walked this route with my daughter to her kindergarten class. We were new to the neighborhood so that I didn’t know many of my neighbors. On one beautiful autumn morning, as we passed his house, my daughter called out to him, “Hi,Mr. Man!” Always knowing she was an outgoing child, I wasn’t surprised at her enthusiasm. But her cheerfulness soon faded when the man didn’t look at her and say “Hi” back.As we continued on our walk to school, my daughter asked why the man didn’t want to say hi to her. Because I didn’t have an answer, I said simply, “ Maybe he is having a bad day.” Later I knew that Bob lost his wife in a car accident.A few days later, as we approached Bob’s house on our way to school, my daughter called out “Hi, Man!” and as usual, he didn’t respond. But then she ran onto his front lawn and picked up a beautiful red autumn leaf. She continued up one step and handed it to him. I held my breath.As she skipped back to me, she said, “See you tomorrow, Mr. Man!” This time, he acknowledged her. In a soft and gentle voice, he thanked her and said, “See you tomorrow.”From then on, Bob and my daughter exchanged greetings each morning. Our friendship with Bob continued for many years. But the sweetest day is the day when Bob attended my daughter’s high school graduation. Bob gave my daughter a gift--- a book on identifying various plants and trees. There, tucked in the pages that described an oak tree, was the leaf my daughter had given to Mr. Man when they first met. He had dried and pressed it and kept it all those years.5.What puzzled the girl?A.The cause of the man’s sadness.B.The shadows in the man’s eyes.C.The man’s sitting still on the steps.D.The man’s not answering her greeting.6.How did the author feel when his daughter gave the red leaf to the man?A. ProudB. NervousC. EmbarrassedD. Comfortable7.Why did Bob keep that little red leaf?A. It was care from a girl.B. It was a symbol of enthusiasm.C. It was a reminder of his painful days.D. It represented the knowledge of trees.8.Which of the following can be the best title for the text?A.A Simple Red LeafB. A Strange NeighborC. An Unusual FriendD. A Greeting From a GirlCBelgium is divided into three communities. Each one has its own language and traditions. But the people of Belgium are united in their love for Belgian potato fries. The fries are prepared and sold the same way in all areas of the country.The Reuters news service reports that potatoes reached Belgium in the 16th century. But it was not until the 19th century that restaurants and others began selling fried potatoes throughout the country as a separate meal.Recently, a Belgian group launched a campaign aimed at getting the United Nations to recognize the popular treat. The group wants the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization to place the food on its cultural heritage(遗产) list.The UNESCO list recognizes more than 300 objects, beliefs, and practices. They include Turkish coffee and the traditional Chinese theater known as Peking Opera. The list also includes a dance, the Argentinian tango, and the singing of the Aka pygmies of the Central African Republic. UNESCO says the list is “made up of intangible heritage elements (非物质文化遗产元素）that help show the diversity of heritage and raise awareness about its importance”.Belgian potato fries are traditionally sold in a paper wrapper, or cone, in a “frikot”. There are about 5,000 fritkots in Belgium. That means they are 10 times more common than McDonald’s restaurants in the United States. The national organization of fritkot owners says the small, often unfurnished buildings are much like Belgium itself. It says these buildings combine the country’s acceptance of disorder with a dislike of structures that all look the same. The group says 95 percent of Belgians visit a fried potato hut at least once a year.9.Belgian potato fries ________.A.were recognized by UNESCOB.are well received in BelgiumC.are sold in all food stores.D.didn’t become a separate meal until the 16th century.10.What’s the aim of the Belgian group?A.

The solution may be insects from your backyard! Scientists are turning insects into a source of healthy oil. Even though insects are a food source in some parts of the world, to many people, the thought of eating them is very disgusting.“In the western countries, there is no culture of eating entire insects, so when the idea is to use the protein in powder as an ingredient, people might tend to receive this better protein even if they can’t see it,”said researcher Daylan Tzompas-Sosa. “There are many uses for the oil in general, but we are investigating the use of these oils for a food, as a food ingredient.”The Mexican researcher, working in the Netherlands, said insects are a great source of heart-healthy omega-3 fatty acids, which can help treat anxiety disorder symptoms. Backing up the increased reliance on insects is the United Nations Foodand Agriculture Organization. In a 2013 report, the UN agency allowed the cultivation of bugs as a food source, saying it’s environmentally friendly and could boost the world’s food production.There are clear reasons that experts advise people to eat the insects. Experts say insects require little food to grow and the backyard can be a good place to raise them. And there’s no shortage of protein-rich insects, which contain fat, vitamins, fiber and minerals.Researchers say different bugs provide unique tastes and textures. “This is very liquid and it has a different color, so this can be used as a dressing and it’s easy to use and this can be used for pastry, because for pastry you need hard fats,”stated Tzompas-Sosa.But not all insects produce good oil. Cockroaches don’t. The bug oils must be tested to make sure they are safe to consume. But getting over the “ick factor”may be a bigger challenge.13.What is the author’s attitude towards the use of bug oils？A.DoubtfulB. ObjectiveC. SupportiveD. Unfavorable.14.Why do experts suggest eating the insects?A.They are rich in minerals.B.They have different colors.C.They taste good.D.They’re easy to raise.15.From the last paragraph, we can learn that __________.A.all insects cannot produce good oilB.the bug oils are the most deliciousC.it’s safe to consume the bug oilsD.the use of bug oils is banned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。

ASummer ActivitiesStudents should read the list with their parents/careers, and select two activities they would like to do. Forms will be available in school and online for them to indicate their choices and return to school. Before choices are finalised, parents/caree rs will be asked to sign to confirm their child’s choices.1.Which activity will you choose if you want to go camping?A.OUT.B.WBP.C.CRF.D.POT.2.What will the students do on Tuesday with Mrs. Wilson?A. Travel to London.B. See a parade and fireworks.C. Tour central Paris.D. Visit the WWI battlefields.3.How long does Potty about Potter last?A. Two days.B. Four days.C. Five days.D. One week.BMany of us love July because it’s the month when nature’s berries and stone fruits are in abundance. These colourful and sweet jewels form British Columbia’s fields are little powerhouses of nutritional protection.Of the common berries, strawberries are highest in vitamin C, although, because of their seeds, raspberries contain a little more protein (蛋白质), iron and zinc (not that fruits have much protein). Blueberries are particularly high in antioxidants (抗氧化物质). The yellow and orange stone fruits such as peaches are high in the carotenoids we turn into vitamin A and which are antioxidants. As for cherries (樱桃), they are so delicious who cares? However, they are rich in vitamin C.When combined with berries of slices of other fruits, frozen bananas make an excellent base for thick, cooling fruit shakes and low fat “ice cream”. For this purpose, select ripe bananas for freezing as they are much sweeter. Remove the skin and place them in plastic bags or containers and freeze. If you like, a squeeze of fresh lemon juice on the bananas will prevent them turning brown. Frozen bananas will last several weeks, depending on their ripeness and the temperature of the freezer.If you have a juicer, you can simply feed in frozen bananas and some berries or sliced fruit. Out comes a “soft-serve” creamy dessert, to b e eaten right away. This makes a fun activity for a children’s party; they love feeding the fruit and frozen bananas into the top of the machine and watching the ice cream come out below.4. What does the author seem to like about cherries?A. They contain protein.B. They are high in vitamin A.C. They have a pleasant taste.D. They are rich in antioxidants.5. Why is fresh lemon juice used in freezing bananas?A. To make them smell better.B. To keep their colour.C. To speed up their ripening.D. To improve their nutrition.6. What is “a juicer” in the last paragraph?A. A dessert.B. A drink.C. A container.D. A machine.7. From which is the text probably taken?A. A biology textbook.B. A health magazine.C. A research paper.D. A travel brochure.CTeens and younger children are reading a lot less for fun, according to a Common Sense Media report published Monday.While the decline over the past decade is steep for teen readers, some data in the report shows that reading remains a big part of many children’s lives, and indicates how parents might help encourage more reading.Accor ding to the report’s key findings, “the proportion (比例) who say they ‘hardly ever’ read for fun has gone from 8 percent of 13-year-olds and 9 percent of 17-year-olds in 1984 to 22 percent and 27 percent respectively today.”The report data shows that pleasure reading levels for younger children, ages 2—8, remain largely the same. But the amount of time spent in reading each session has declined, from closer to an hour or more to closer to a half hour per session.When it comes to technology and reading, the report does little to counsel (建议) parents looking for data about the effect of e-readers and tablets on reading. It does point out that many parents still limit electronic reading, mainly due to concerns about increased screen time.The most hopeful data shared in the report shows clear evidence of parents serving as examples and important guides for their kids when it comes to reading. Data shows that kids and teens who do read frequently, compared to infrequent readers, have more books in the home, more books purchased for them, parents who read more often, and parents who set aside time for them to read.As the end of school approaches, and school vacation reading lists loom (逼近) ahead, parents might take this chance to step in and make their own summer reading list and plan a family trip to the library or bookstore.8. What is the Common Sense Media report probably about?A. Children’s reading habits.B. Quality of children’s books.C. Children’s after-class activities.D. Parent-child relationships.9. Where can you find the data that best supports "children are reading a lot less for fun"?A. In paragraph 2.B. In paragraph 3.C. In paragraph 4.D. In paragraph 5.10. Why do many parents limit electronic reading?A. E-books are of poor quality.B. It could be a waste of time.C. It may harm children’s health.D. E-readers are expensive.11. How should parents encourage their children to read more?A. Act as role models for them.B. Ask then to write book reports.C. Set up reading groups for them.D. Talk with their reading class teachers.DWe’ve all been there: in a lift, in line at the bank or on an airplane, surrounded by people who are, like us, deeply focused on their smartphones or, worse, struggling with the uncomfortable silence.What’s the problem? It’s possible that we all have compromised conversational intelligence. It’s more likely that none of us start a conversation because it’s aw kward and challenging, or we think it’s annoying and unnecessary. But the next time you find yourself among strangers, consider that small talk is worth the trouble. Experts say it’s an invaluable social practice that results in big benefits.Dismissing s mall talk as unimportant is easy, but we can’t forget that deep relationships wouldn’t even exist if it weren’t for casual conversation. Small talk is the grease (润滑剂) for social communication, says Bernardo Carducci, director of the Shyness Research Insti tute at Indiana University Southeast. “Almost every great love story and each big business deal begins with small talk,” he explains. “The key to successful small talk is learning how to connect with others, not just communicate with them.”In a 2014 study, Elizabeth Dunn, associate professor of psychology at UBC, invited people on their way into a coffee shop. One group was asked to seek out an interaction (互动) with its waiter; the other, to speak only when necessary. The results showed that those who chatted with their server reported significantly higher positive feelings and a better coffee shop experie nce. “It’s not that talking to the waiteris better than talking to your husband,＂says Dunn.”But interactions with peripheral (边缘的) members of our social network matter for our well-being also.＂Dunn believes that people who reach out to strangers feel a significantly greater sense of belonging, a bond with others. Carducci believes developing such a sense of belonging starts with small talk. “Small talk is the basis of good manners,”he says.12. What phenomenon is described in the first paragraph?A. Addiction to smartphones.B. Inappropriate behaviours in public places.C. Absence of communication between strangers.D. Impatience with slow service.13. What is important for successful small talk according to Carducci?A. Showing good manners.B. Relating to other people.C. Focusing on a topic.D. Making business deals.14. What does the coffee-shop study suggest about small talk?A. It improves family relationships.B. It raises people’s confidence.C. It matters as much as a formal talk.D. It makes people feel good.15. What is the best title for the text?A. Conversation CountsB. Ways of Making Small TalkC. Benef its of Small TalkD. Uncomfortable Silence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。

But a phone call years ago found him a new career.“I got a random phone call one day，” he says. “They asked me if I could make a picture in somebody's lawn(草坪), and I thought: ‘well, you can make a picture out of anything, can't you？’” As a result, the finished masterpiece ended up in the newspapers and, before he knew it, Naylor had a new profession: lawn artist.With a background in art, rather than gardening, battling nature was a new experience for Naylor when he started. “It was a new challenge and it was very hard to research lawn art. How do you do it? There's not much of it out there. So I had to work out how it would work, and what I'd need.” He says.As a lawn artist, however, there is no room for error. And there's no time to wait for the grass to grow back again if it all goes wrong. So Naylor has to getit right for the first time. “If you accidentally cut the wrong bit off, you can't just patch(修补) it up again. You can't start again.”“Planning is key，”he says. “Grass is not a nice artistic medium. It's not very easy to handle.” Besides, lawn art may be impressive, but it only happens during the summer. “The rest of my year, I'm painting or using pens, pencils—normal things.”He may have cut out a new professional field, but he sees it like any other art project. “When you become a lawn artist, you have to say yes to any c hallenge.”However, as the rain falls over each new artwork, the grass soon grows back and the image is quickly lost. “That's the annoying thing about nature，” says Naylor.5．How was Naylor's first art work in the lawn?A．It was only a small one. B．It was difficult to create.C．It made him famous. D．It was created in winter.6．What matters most to a lawn artist?A．Accuracy. B．Opportunity. C．Knowledge. D．Courage.7．What can we infer about lawn art?A．It has a long history. B．It can be created randomly.C．Rain is a help to the lawn art. D．It is a combination of art and gardening.CThe days of staring at the computer screen pretending to take an interest in an assignment even though you are bored out of your mind may soon be coming to an end. That's because computers of the future will be able to detect boredom and even react to it in real time.But before you get concerned, the machine is not reading your mind. It is just keeping track of the constant involuntary movements that people exhibit when in front of a computer or even a television. These are not the bigger instrumental actions like moving a mouse or using the remote, but sensitive hardly noticeable movements like scratching. Researcher Witchel says the level of movement directly shows how absorbed the person is in what he/she is reading or watching—the higher the interest level, the less the movement!To test the theory, Witchel and his team invited 27 people and exposed them to a variety of digital content for three minutes at a time. The activities ranged from playing online games to reading documents like the EU banking regulations that most people would find boring.A video motion (动作) tracker monitored their movements as they powered through each assignment. Just as the researchers had suspected, the involuntary actions decreased remarkably, by as much as 42%, when the subjects were totally absorbed in what they were reading or seeing.Fortunately, the scientists are not planning to use the findings to create machines that report students who are not focusing at school. Instead, they believe that applying the motion detecting technology to future computers will help improve the digital learning experience.The scientists say being able to judge the student's interest level will enable educators to adjust the materials in real time and reengage the student. Witchel also believes that the technology can provide filmmakers with honest audience opinions.8．Which movement does the machine keep track of?A．Breathing. B．Typing. C．Scratching. D．Walking.9．What might people's high level of movement indicate during TVwatching?A．They are getting excited. B．They are feeling bored.C．They are very interested. D．They are thinking actively.10．How did the researchers come to the conclusion?A．By a followup survey. B．By analysing previous data.C．By means of questionnaires. D．By observing participants' performance.11．Which field will detecting technology be applied to?A．Agriculture. B．Politics. C．Industry. D．Education.DThis month, Germany’s transport minister, Alexander Dobrindt, proposed the first set of rules for autonomous vehicles(自主驾驶车辆). They would define the driver’s role in such cars and govern how such cars perform in crashes where livesmight be lost.The proposal attempts to deal with what some call the “death valley” of autonomous vehicles: the grey area between semi-autonomous and fully driverless cars that could delay the driverless future.Dobrindt wants three things: that a car always chooses property(财产) damage over personal injury; that it never distinguishes between humans based on age or race; and that if a human removes his or her hands from the driving wheel — to check email, say — the car’s maker is responsible if there is a crash.“The change to the road traffic law will permit fully automatic driving,”says Dobrindt. It will put fully driverless cars on an equal legal footing to human drivers, he says.Who is responsible for the operation of such vehicles is not clear among car makers, consumers and lawyers. “The liability(法律责任) issue is the biggest one of them all,” says Natasha Merat at the University of Leeds, UK.An assumption behind UK insurance for driverless cars, introduced earlier this year, insists that a human “be watchful and monitoring the road”at every moment.But that is not what many people have in mind when thinking of driverless cars. “When you say ‘driverless cars’, people expect driverless cars.” Merat says. “You know — no driver.” Because of the confusion, Merat thinks some car makers will wait until vehicles can be fully automated without operation.Driverless cars may end up being a form of public transport rather than vehicles you own, says Ryan Calo at Stanford University, California. That is happening in the UK and Singapore, where government-provided driverless vehicles are being launched.That would go down poorly in the US, however. “The idea that the government would take over driverless cars and treat them as a public good would get absolutely nowhere here,” says Calo.12. What does the phrase “death valley” in Paragraph 2 refer to?A. A place where cars often break down.B. A case where passing a law is impossible.C. An area where no driving is permitted.D. A situation where drivers’ role isnot clear.13. What do consumers think of the operation of driverless cars?A. It should get the attention of insurance companies.B. It should be the main concern of law makers.C. It should not cause deadly traffic accidents.D. It should involve no human responsibility.14. Driverless vehicles in public transport see no bright future in __________.A. SingaporeB. the UKC. the USD. Germany15. What could be the best title for passage?A. Autonomous Driving: Whose Liability?B. Fully Automatic Cars: A New InventionC. Autonomous Vehicles: Driver RemovedD.

That is happening in the UK and Singapore, where government-provided driverless vehicles are being launched.That would go down poorly in the US, however. “The idea that the government would take over driverless cars and treat them as a public good would get absolutely nowhere here,” says Calo.12. What does the phrase “death valley” in Paragraph 2 refer to?A. A place where cars often break down.B. A case where passing a law is impossible.C. An area where no driving is permitted.D. A situation where drivers’ role is not clear.13. What do consumers think of the operation of driverless cars?A. It should get the attention of insurance companies.B. It should be the main concern of law makers.C. It should not cause deadly traffic accidents.D. It should involve no human responsibility.14. Driverless vehicles in public transport see no bright future in __________.A. SingaporeB. the UKC. the USD. Germany15. What could be the best title for passage?A. Autonomous Driving: Whose Liability?B. Fully Automatic Cars: A New InventionC. Autonomous Vehicles: Driver RemovedD.

It is one of the hottest places on the surface of the earth. The highest ground temperature ever re corded was 93. 90℃ on July 15, 1972. It is the driest place in North America with an average rainfall of only l.96 inches a year. Death Valley also boasts the lowest point in the western hemisphere-Bad-water, at 85. 95 meters below sea level.Death Valley got its name in 1849, when a group of emigrants were looking fora shortcut to the gold field of California. They were given bad advice and went into the valley. Some of them were killed by the bad weather and harsh road. When the rest finally walked out, they gave the area its name by saying to it "Good-bye, Death Valley".As the name might suggest, there is very little apparent vegetation within Death Valley. First impressions, however, can be deceiving. Death Valley includes more than 1000 species of plants that have adapted to the harsh conditions.Death Valley is also a land of beauties. Sunrise and sunset are two of the most spectacular attractions. Depending on different angles, they show many of the area's different moods.For the best viewing, plan to be there approximately one hour before sunset or before sunrise.Death Valley National Park is open all year round. In spite of the climate, hiking is one of the most popular activities in Death Valley. The surrounding mountains produce spectacular wildflower displays along with snow-covered peaks, breathtaking sand dunes, abandoned mines and industrial structures.5.All the following statements are the most special natures of Death Valley except that _______.A.it has the largest number of desert plantsB.it has the hottest ground in the worldC.it is the driest place in North AmericaD.it is the lowest in the western hemisphere6.From the passage we can know that the name Death Valley comes from the fact that _______.A.no one can escape from its bad weatherB.it's too hot for any plants to grow thereC.some persons died from its terrible climate atD.it is so dry that no living things can exist7.Though Death Valley has horrible living conditions, the author thinks highly of ________.A.its snow-covered peaksB.its special climateC.its wild lifeD.the view of sunrise and sunset8.The purpose of this passage probably is _______.A.telling us the danger of Death ValleyB.giving us a general introduction of Death ValleyC.encouraging us to pay a visit to Death ValleyD.describing the beauty of Death ValleyCIn my living room,there is a plaque (匾) that advises me to“Bloom (开花) where you are planted.” It reminds me of Dorothy.I got to know Dorothy in the early 1980s,when I was teaching Early Childhood Development through a program with Union College in Barbourville,Kentucky.The job responsibilities required occasional visitsto the classroom of each teacher in the program.Dorothy stands out in my memory as one who“bloomed”in her remote area.Dorothy taught in a school in Harlan County,Kentucky,Appalachian Mountain area.To get to her school from the town of Harlan,I followed a road winding around the mountain.In the eight-mile journey,I crossed the same railroad track five times,giving the possibility of getting caught by the same train five times.Rather than feeling excited by this drive through the mountains,I found it depressing.The poverty level was shocking and the small shabby houses gave me the greatest feeling of hopelessness.From the moment of my arrival at the little school,all gloom (忧郁) disappeared.Upon arriving at Dorothy’s classroom.I was greeted with smiling faces and treated like a queen.The children had been prepared to show me their latest projects.Dorothy told me with a big smile that they were serving poke greens salad and cornbread for“dinner”(lunch).In case you don’t know,poke greens are a weed-type plant that grows wild,especially on poor ground.Dorothy never ran out of reports of exciting activities of her students.Her enthusiasm never cooled down.When it came time to sit for the testing and interviewing required to receive her Child Development Associate Certification,Dorothy was ready.She came to the assessment and passed in all areas.Afterward,she invited me to the one and only steak house in the area to celebrate her victory,as if she had received her Ph.D.degree.After the meal,she placed a little box containing an old pen in my hand.She said it was a family heirloom (传家宝),but to me it is a treasured symbol of appreciation and pride that cannot be matched with things.9.“Early Childhood Development” in Paragraph 1 refers to .A.a programme directed by DorothyB.a course given by the authorC.an activity held by the studentsD.an organization sponsored by Union College10.In the journey, the author was most disappointed at seeing .A.the long trackB.the poor housesC.the same trainD.the winding road11.What can we know about Dorothy from the last paragraph?A.She was invited to a celebration at a restaurant.B.She got a pen as a gift from the author.C.She passed the required assessment.D.She received her Ph.D.degree.D（改编）Many cities have interesting nicknames. Nicknames can help establish the identity of a city. They can also spread pride among its citizens.New Orleans, Louisiana probably has more nicknames than any other American city. One web site lists more than twenty nicknames. The most famous is “The BigEasy” It describes the gentle, slow and easy-going way of life in New Orleans.So how did the city get this nickname? In the early 1900s there was a dance hall in New Orleans called “The Big Easy”. But the nickname did not become famous until the early 1970s. That was when a Louisiana newspaper writer began calling New Orleans by this name. She compared the easy-going way of life there to the hurried pace of life in New York City.In 1970, James Conaway wrote a crime novel called “The Big Easy”. The story was set in New Orleans. In 1987, that book was made into a film which made the nickname even more popular.New Orleans has other nicknames. One of them is “The Crescent(新月) City”. During the 19th century, new neighbourhoods expanded out from what is now known as the French Quarter. These areas followed the great curve (曲线) of the Mississippi River, giving New Orleans the shape of a crescent.Another nickname is “The Birthplace of Jazz”, because that kind of music started in New Orleans. It is also called “Mardi Gras City” for the wild celebrations and parades that take place there every year. And, there is a nickname that uses the short way to write New Orleans and Louisiana. If you do not want to use the complete name, you can call the city “NOLA”.12.Which of the following nicknames does not refer to New Orleans?A.The Birthplace of Jazz.B.The Sin City.C.Mardi Gras City.D.The Crescent City.13.Which of the following statements about New Orleans is not TRUE?A.It has the most nicknames among American cities.B.One of its neighbouring cities is the New York City.C.Its people enjoyed celebrations and parades.D.It is by the river of the Mississippi.14.Which of the following statements about James Conaway is correct?A.He described the easy-going way of life in New Orleans in his book.B.He was a newspaper writer based in New Orleans.C.He wrote a romantic story named “The Big Easy”.D.His book was adapted into a movie.15.What’s the best title of the passage?A.The Big EasyB.Cities and nicknamesC.New Orleans and its nicknamesD.Nicknames—the Identity of a city第二节七选五(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中有两项为多余选项。

He grew up having other kittens to play and socialize with, and was used to people from the moment he was born since there are always kids hanging around the barn. However, when it came time to find the kittens homes, no one knew where Jack would end up.That’s when I got an e-mail from my friend. All she asked was “Do you still want one of the kittens? There’s one here with no eyes and no o ne can take him.” Without thinking I told her that I did want the kitten.When we first brought him home Jack stayed mostly in my room. After about a day he had no issues running around, jumping onto my bed and climbing on everything. At times he gets lost in the house, and he stops. But we just call his name and talk to him and it isn’t long before he finds his way back to us.Also, a few weeks after getting Jack, we got a new farm cat named Bear. Bear and Jack have become best friends. It doesn’t matter that he can’t see. Jack always knows when Bear is around. He’ll run across the yard straight to Bear and wrap his front legs around his neck in a big hug. They chase each other around and wrestle, and when they’re tired they’ll lie down in the grass togethe r.Jack is truly an inspiration. I’ve owned a lot of kittens in my life, but Jack is the happiest, most playful. He doesn’t feel sorry for himself. He doesn’t need pity. Jean, owner of Gumbo, another eyeless cat, said, “Cats don’t have disabilities; they have adaptability”.( ) 24. Why did Jack come to the author’s home?A. He cared for an eyeless cat.B. He didn’t mind whether he was blindC. No other young cat kept him company.D. His friend begged him to take him home.( ) 25. Which of the following statements is true?A. Jack often wrestles with Bear indoor.B. Jack likes to play with a new eyeless cat.C. Jack can adapt to the new environment quickly.D. Jack is good at talking and playing with people.( ) 26. What does the underline word “issues” in paragraph 3 mean?A. Trouble.B. Fun.C. Luck.D. Business.( ) 27. What can we learn from the passage?A. A cat has nine lives.B. All is well that ends well.C. God help those who help themselves.D. A good beginning makes a good ending.C“Sorry, but I don’t agree with you…” This is usually followed by unbearable silence and angry tears. I’ve always found it difficult to disagree with someone because I don’t want to lose a friend. I’ve found it e ven harder to accept it when someone disagrees with me, because my ego (自尊心) is hurt.Before the other person gets a chance to explain why she disagrees with me, my usual response would be, “If you aren’t able to see my point of view, then what you think i sn’t worth my time or consideration, either.” But now I’ve come to realize that when a friend disagrees with me, sometimes she is simply saying, “I don’t agree with the way things are done.” She still respects me as a person, and is only pointing out a better way to look at a matter. However, there may be times when my friend disagrees with me because I’m against the truth. That’s when I need to listen to what she says.I’ve learned that for me one way to help my friend is to be open and honest with the oth er to voice my thoughts and listen to the other carefully. While we can’tcontrol how a person will respond to our views, we must learn to disagree with our friends in love. We will never feel that we are better than the other person. And that will help us to be less emotional, and more objective in the way we express our opinions. In the same way, we can also stay open to feedback (反馈) from others, knowing that our friends may be correcting us in love.Good friendships build each other up, sometimes through disagreements and honest opinions. Though I don’t like being disagreed with, I’m starting to see the value of such disagreements.( ) 28. The author has found it difficult to disagree with someone because ______.A. he is a friendly personB. he usually hides his ideasC. he has no mind of his ownD. he wants to keep the friendship( ) 29. When a friend disagreed with him, the author used to _______.A. be unhappyB. argue with the friendC. break up with the friendD. explain things calmly( ) 30. The author will listen to a friend when _______.A. he is against the truthB. he doesn’t tell the truthC. he is respected by the friendD. he does things in the wrong way ( ) 31. What does the author mainly talk about in the text?A. How to keep friendship.B. How to avoid hurting a friend.C. How to express disagreements.D. How to deal with disagreements.DThe World Health Organization (WHO) said that processed meat may be carcinogenic (致癌). Do you still dare eat cancer-linked processed meat? Here are some comments on the website.Bill (Australia): I’d rather live a short, pleasant life than a long, unhappy one, denying(拒绝给予) myself tasty food just because some experts say it’s not healthy. We should all enjoy the one life we have ---if I had listened to every piece of health advice, I would never go anywhere, eat anything or enjoy life in any way. So, I won’t change my habit. I am going to have bacon sandwich, a glass of wine, a burger, or a can of coke whenever I fell like it.Tim (America): Is meat really as bad as smoking? I don’t think so. Accordingto the WHO, 34,000 people die worldwide per year because they eat processed meat. In 2012, 8.2 million people died of cancer worldwide. That means if you eat a lot of processed meat you have a chance of being among the 0.41 percent of people dying of cancer because of processed meat. I’ll take the chance.Helen (Switzerland): The WHO doesn’t say that just one bite of meat causes cancer; it is rather saying that people should vary their diet. People who eat more meat often have other unhealthy habits. They usually eat fewer fruits and vegetables and they also often exercise less.Van (China): Perhaps this report will make people consider becoming vegetarians (素食者). So for your health, the environment and future generations, it is not difficult; it just needs a change of attitude. There is a vast variety of other delicious food available to enjoy.( ) 32.
