But for Calisto Grant, 11, a typical day might also include instruction in American Indian drumming and dancing. She studies the Ojibwa（oh-jib-way）and Lakota languages, too, and enjoys school powwows.Calisto goes to the American Indian Magnet School（AIMS）, in Saint Paul, Minnesota. It is open to kids in pre-K to grade 8.Although other U.S. schools teach American Indian culture, the teachers at AIMS say their school is unique. They connect lessons to American Indian culture. When students learn about plant life cycles in science, they also learn about how Native people used herbs for ceremonies and healing. A language arts class may include a reading about the meaning of jingle dresses. Calisto says the focus on American Indian culture helps everyone know that “the culture is still alive.”Calisto is Cherokee and Ojibwa. Of the 680 students at AIMS, only one-quarter are American Indian. It is a public school that is open to all kids in the community. All students gain from the school’s focus. “It’s important for everyone to know about the people who were here first and that they still live here today,” says teacher Tamara Goggle. Lessons give all students a chance to explore their heritage.Calisto represents the school at powwows and other events. She is proud to teach others about her history. “An Ojibwa prophecy says that we might lose our culture if we don’t show it to our kids,” Calisto says. “Kids need to help pass down our culture, or it could go away.” AIMS and Calisto are working to make sure that won’t happen.The president of the school AIMS, Mr. Philips says they will go down this road with sincerity and determination, which is thought valuable by experts.56．In what way are Calisto Grant’s school days different from other kids? ________A．She studies math and science.B．She draws English paintings.C．She practices dancing and drumming.D．She learns American Indian languages.57．What can we infer from the third paragraph? ________A．Teachers at AIMS are proud of their school.B．AIMS don’t teach American Indian culture.C．Students are mostly interested in language arts.D．American Indian culture is being neglected by others.58．What do we know about the school AIMS? ________A．It provides free schooling for kids nearby.B．It focuses on American history development.C．It helps students to explore their heritage.D．It proves the existence of American Indians.59．What does the underlined word “that” in the last paragraph but one refer to? ________A．Ojibwa culture’s going away. B．Forgetting her own history.C．Showing her culture to kids. D．Passing down her culture.60．What can we learn from this text? ________A．Calisto Grant is different from other students.B．American Indian culture is a popular culture.C．The school AIMS is doing a worthwhile thing.D．It takes time for students to love the special culture.CLast year, I called emergency services because I found my partner unconscious on the floor. Within minutes, a police car and ambulance arrived, filled with police, doctors and nurses who moved my partner away to the emergency department, where he received the critical care that he needed.A week later, still marveling at the impact of a handful of strangers, I wrote thank-you notes to those helpful police and doctors and nurses and baked for them. It was a small gesture with a big impact. When I dropped off cakes at the police and fire stations, they thanked me for the gifts. I drove away feeling light and happy, partly because I’d done a good deed, but mostly because I was amazed that there are selfless people who do life-saving work and expect nothing in return. Research has shown that sharing thoughts of gratitude and performing acts of kindness can boost your mood and have other positive effects on your health.When you feel thankful for things you’ve received or something that’s happened, that’s gratitude. It’s impossible to feel it in a vacuum; others are always responsible, whether they’re loved ones, strangers or a higher power. “Gratitude is how you relate to others, when you see yourself in connection with things larger than yourself,” Ruch says.Today, many people don’t stop to appreciate what they have, much less express gratitude. Our instant-gratification lifestyle may be to blame.“With commercial and social media, everything is speeding the younger generation to make them feel that they are the center of the universe,” says Tamiko Zablith, founder of the London-based etiquette consulting firm Minding Manners. “If it’s all about them, why thank others?”Why not thank others? Studies have shown that people who express gratitude increase their happiness levels, lower their blood pressure levels, get better quality sleep, improve their relationships, have a positive impact on their depression levels and are less affected by pain.Because gratitude is a fairly new field of study, researchers are still trying to identify its cause-and-effect relationship with various health benefits.61．The author’s partner was saved largely due to ________A．his good luck B．the rescuers’ joint effortsC．the author’s immediate reaction D．his receiving good treatment62．Which of the following sentences has the similar meaning with the underlined sentence? ________A．To help others out is a virtue to everyone.B．Helping others will benefit yourself as well.C．Casual help will make a big difference to others.D．Don’t miss doing any good thing however insignificant it is.63．The first two paragraphs serve as ________A．an introduction to the topic of the textB．a description of his partners’ being savedC．an explanation of the police’s personal valuesD．a way of expressing the author’s gratitude64．What can we learn from this text? ________A．Many people are willing to express their gratitude.B．The gratitude training should be carried out at an early age.C．Saying thank-you can have positive effects on your physical and mental health.D．Researchers have known the relationship between gratitude and health benefits.65．Which could be the best title of this text? ________A．The power of gratitude B．My passion for gratitudeC．My partner’s rescue D．People’s attitude to gratitudeDA New study by the British government has discovered the mental well-being of the country’s teenage girls has worsened.The survey, which included 30,000 14-year-old students in 2005 and 2014, showed 37 percent of girls with psychological stress, up from 34 percent in 2005.British boys’ stress level was actually seen to fall over the same time period, from 17 percent to 15 percent. The report’s authors pointed out the “advent of the social media age”could be a major contributing factor for increasing stress among teenage British girls.“The adolescent years are a time of rapid physical, cognitive and emotional development,” Pam Rams den, a lecturer in psychology at the University of Bradford in the United Kingdom, wrote in a recent blog post. “Teenagers interact with people in order to learn how to become competent adults. In the past, they would engage with parents,teachers and other adults in their community as well as extended family members and friends. Now we can also add social media to that list of social and emotional development.”Throughout adolescence, girls and boys develop characteristics like confidence and self-control. Since teenage brains have not completely developed, teens don’t have the cognitive awareness and impulse control to keep from posting inappropriate content. Furthermore, this content can easily be circulated far and wide with disastrous implications.Social media can also feed into girls’ insecurities about their appearance, Rams den said. These sites are often filled with images of people with body type unattainable to the normal person. However, these images and the messages tied to them creep into social standards.“Social media allows girls to make comparisons among friends as well as celebrities and then provides them with solutions such as extreme dieting tips and workouts to reach their goals,” Rams den said. “Concerns about body image can negatively impact their quality of life preventing them from having healthy relationships and taking up time that could be better spent developing other aspects of their personalities.”66．How does the survey tell us the negative impact of social media? ________A．By making experiments. B．By raising a question.C．By making comparisons D．By analyzing causes and effects.67．According to Pam Rams den, we can know ________A．teenagers hate sharing their thoughts with people aroundB．teenagers’ mental health has nothing with social mediaC．teenagers will not post improper content on the InternetD．the ways of teenagers’ interaction with people have changed68．What is Rams den’s attitude toward the images with fine body shape? ________A．Supportive. B．Indifferent. C．Critical. D．Concerned.69．According to the last paragraph, it is necessary for teenagers ________A．to get rid of the bad effects of social media.B．to follow the celebrities’ exampleC．to be concerned about their body imageD．to make comparisons among friends70．What does this text mainly tell us? ________A．The well-being of teenagers in Britain.B．The social media’s negative effect on teenagers.C．The development of teenagers in Britain.D．How to interact with teenagers in Britain.第Ⅱ卷第四部分:写作第一节:阅读表达（共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分）阅读短文,并按照题目要求用英语回答问题.John D. Rockefeller was born in 1839 on a farm near Richford, New York, a small town in the western part of the state.

Now he looked for better opportunities.At first, Rockefeller worked in an office, where he was successful and where he learned a great deal about business. But he wanted to go into business for himself. So he and a friend formed a partnership to buy and sell grain, hay, and other farm products.The business was successful, but Rockefeller decided to go into the new oil industry. He formed his own company so that he could make free use of his skill and imagination in business.The company Rockefeller started became the Standard Oil Company. It took the oil from wells and refined it, that is, changed it into products such as kerosene（煤油）and grease（油脂）.Rockefeller’s business grew until it was worth millions of dollars.

He drove a white Ford car. Who was he ? The police found "Harvey Lowmeyer's "gun and "John Willard's "shirt, and then the white car. It was "Eric Starvo Galt's" car. So what was this man's real name? The marks on the shirt and the car sent the F. B. I. to Los Angeles. 300 detectives questioned people. At last one found a photograph of "Galt". Then detectives in Atlanta found a fingerprint. It was on a map in"Galt's"room in a small hotel. One fingerprint was enough.James Earl Ray's fingerprint was already on the F. B. I. cards. The police watched railway stations, hotels and airports. 3000 detectives were trying to find Ray---without success.The Canadian police were helping, too. They looked at 240,000 photographs in their Passport Office. Then they found one of "Ramon George Sneyd". "We gave this man a passport last month," they said. "He went to London on 2nd May. "The man was wearing thick glasses, but he looked like Ray. Then on 8th June, a detective at London Airport saw Sneyd's name on a passenger list.It was the end of the biggest manhunt in history.

Do we have enough energy sources to meet our future energy needs?These are two important questions that many people are asking today. Some people think that men might be able to solve both problems at the same time. They suggest using garbage as an energy source.For a long time people buried garbage or dumped it on empty land. Now empty land is scarce. However, more and more garbage is produced each year, but garbage can be a good fuel to use. The things in garbage do not look like coal, petroleum, or natural gas: but they arechemically similar to these fossil fuels(). As we use up our fossil-fuel supplies, we might be able to use garbage as an energy source.Burning garbage is not a new idea. Some cities in Europe and the United States have been burning garbage for years. The heat that is produced by burning garbage is used to boil water. The steam that is produced is used to make electricity or to heat nearby buildings. In Paris, France, some power plants burn almost 2 million metric tons ofthe city's garbage each year. The amount of energy produced is about the same as would be produced by burning almost a half million barrels of oil.But there are problems in using garbage as a fuel. Garbage that burns easily, such as food scraps and paper, must be separated from metals, glass, and other materials that do not burn easily. This separation process is normally costly. Another problem is that burning garbage can pollute the air.Our fossil fuel supplies are limited. Burning garbage might be one kind of energy source that we can use to help meet our energy needs. This method could also reduce the amount of garbage piling up on the earth.82. Which of the following is NOT fossil fuel?(A) Natural gas (B) Petroleum (C) Coal (D) Tide83. People used to depose garbage by ______.(A) turning garbage into useful fossil fuel(B) burning garbage or dumping it on empty land(C) separating garbage into three types(D) shipping garbage into sea or ocean84. Why should we use garbage as an energy source?(A) Because our fossil fuel supplies are limited(B) Because garbage is more useful than fossil fuels(C) Because burning garbage can save a lot of money for us(D) Because empty land is getting more and more scarce.85. What do you think the next paragraph will talk about?(A) Some other methods of turning garbage into treasure(B) Some other benefits we can get from burning garbage(C) How much garbage we can make use of in the world(D) How to separate food scraps and paper from garbage that do not burn easily.Direction: Translate the following sentences in English, using the words or phrases given in the brackets.1. 众所周知，青看被看做是祖国的未来。

screen，and you send an email that could get you in trouble．Realisation will probably set in seconds after you've clicked"send"．You freeze in horrors and burn with shame．What to do？Here are four common email accidents，and how to recover．Clicking"send"too soonDon't waste your time trying to find out if the receivers has read it yet．Write another email as swiftly as you can and send it with a brief explaining that this is the correctversion and the previous version should be ignored．Writing the wrong timeThe sooner you notice，the better．Respond quickly and briefly，apologizing for your mistake．Keep the tone measured：don't handle it too lightly，as people can be offered，especially if your error suggests a misunderstanding of their culture （i．e．incorrect ordering of Chinese names）．Clicking"reply all"unintentionallyYou accidentally reveal（透露）to entire company what menu choices you would prefer at the staff Christmas dinner，or what holiday you'd like to take．In this instance，the best solution is to send a quick，light﹣hearted apology to explain your awkwardness．But it can quickly rise to something worse，when everyone starts hitting"reply all"to join in a long and unpleasant conversation．In this instance，step away from your keyboard to allow everyone to calm down．Sending an offensive message to it's subjectThe most awkward email mistake is usually committed in anger．You write an unkind message about someone，intending to send it to a friend，but accidentally send it to the person you're discussing．In that case，ask to speak in person as soon as possible and say sorry．Explain your frustrations calmly and sensibly﹣see it as an opportunity tic hear up any difficulties you may have with this person．36．After realizing an email accident，you are likely to feel．A．curious B．tired C．awful D．funny37．If you have written the wrong name in an email，it is best to．A．apologise in a serious mannerB．tell the receiver to ignore the errorC．learn to write the name correctlyD．send a short notice to everyone38．What should you do when an unpleasant conversation is started by your"reply all"email？A．Try offering other choices．B．Avoid further involvement．C．Meet other staff members．D．Make a light﹣hearted apology．39．How should you deal with the problem caused by an offensive email？A．By promising not to offend the receiver again．B．By seeking support from the receiver's friends．C．By asking the receiver to control his anger．D．By talking to the receiver face to face．40．What is the passage mainly about？A．Defining email errors．B．Reducing email mistakes．C．Handling email accidents．D．Improving email writing．41．（12.5分）Fifteen years ago，I took a summer vacation in Lecce in southern Italy．After climbing up a hill for a panoramic（全景的）view of the blue sea，white buildings and green olive trees，I paused to catch my breath and then positioned myself to take the best photo of this panorama．Unfortunately，just as I took out my camera，a woman approached from behind，and planted herself right in front of my view．Like me，this woman was here to stop，sigh and appreciate the view．Patient as I was，after about 15 minutes，my camera scanning the sun and reviewing the shot I would eventually take，I grew frustrated．Was it too much to ask her to move so I could take just one picture of the landscape？Sure，I could have asked her，but something prevented me from doing so．She seemed so content in her observation．I didn't want to mess with that．Another 15minutes passed and I grew bored．The woman was still there．I decided to take the photo anyway．And now when I look at it，I think her presence in the photo is what makes the image interesting．The landscape，beautiful on its own，somehowcoms to life and breathes because this woman is engaging with it．This photo，with the unique beauty that unfolded before me and that woman who"ruined"it，now hangs on a wall in my bedroom．What would she think if she knew that her figure is captured（捕捉）and frozen on some stranger's bedroom wall？A bedroom，after all，is a very private space，in which some woman I don't even know has been immortalized（使…永存）．In some ways，she lives in my house．Perhaps we all live in each others'space．Perhaps this is what photos are for：to remind us that we all appreciate beauty，that we all share a common desire for pleasure，for connection，for something that is greater than us．That photo is a reminder，a captured moment，an unspoken conversation between two women，separated only by a thin square of glass．41．What happened when the author was about to take a photo？A．Her camera stopped working．B．A woman blocked her view．C．Someone asked her to leaveD．A friend approached from behind．42．According to the author，the woman was probably．A．enjoying herselfB．losing her patienceC．waiting for the sunsetD．thinking about her past43．In the author's opinion，what makes the photo so alive？A．The rich color of the landscape．B．The perfect positioning of the camera．C．The woman's existence in the photo．D．The soft sunlight that summer day．44．The photo on the bedroom wall enables the author to better understand．A．the need to be close to natureB．the importance of private spaceC．the joy of the vacation in ItalyD．the shared passion for beauty45．The passage can be seen as the author's reflections upon．A．a particular life experienceB．the pleasure of travelingC．the art of photographyD．a lost friendship．46．（12.5分）This 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 lives might 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，introduces 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 driverlesscars．"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．46．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．47．The proposal put forward by Dobrindt aims to．A．stop people from breaking traffic rulesB．help promote fully automatic drivingC．protect drivers of all ages and racesD．prevent serious property damage48．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．49．Driverless vehicles in public transport see no bright future in．A．SingaporeB．the UKC．the USD．Germany50．What could be the best title for passage？A．Autonomous Driving：Whose Liability？B．Fully Automatic Cars：A New BreakthroughC．Autonomous Vehicles：Driver Removed!D．Driverless Cars：Root of Road Accidents．51．（12.5分）I read somewhere that we spend a full third of our lives waiting．But where are we doing all of this waiting，and what does it mean to an impatient society like ours？To understand the issue，let's take a look at three types of"waits"．The very purest form of waiting is the Watched﹣Pot Wait．It is without doubt the most annoying of all．Take filling up the kitchen sink（洗碗池）as an example．There is absolutely nothing you can do while this is going on but keep both eyes fixed on the sink until it's full．During these waits，the brain slips away from the body and wanders about until the water runs over the edge of the counter and onto your socks．This kind of wait makes the waiter helpless and mindless．A cousin to the Watched﹣Pot Wait is the Forced Wait．This one requires a bit of discipline．Properly preparing packaged noodle soup required a Forced Wait．Directions are very specific．"Bring three cups of water to boil，add mix，simmer three minutes，remove from heat，let stand five minutes．"I have my doubts that anyone has actually followed the procedures strictly．After all，Forced Waiting requires patience．Perhaps the most powerful type of waiting is the Lucky﹣Break Wait．This type of wait is unusual in that it is for the most part voluntary．Unlike the Forced Wait，which is also voluntary，waiting for your lucky break does not necessarily mean that it will happen．Turning one's life into a waiting game requires faith and hope，and is strictly for the optimists among us．On the surface it seems as ridiculous as following the directionson soup mixes，but the Lucky﹣Break Wait well serves those who are willing to do it．As long as one doesn't come to rely on it，wishing for a few good things to happen never hurts anybody．We certainly do spend a good deal of our time waiting．The next time you're standing at the sink waiting for it to fill while cooking noodle soup that you'll have to eat until a large bag of cash falls out of the sky，don't be desperate．You're probably just as busy as the next guy．51．While doing a Watched﹣Pot Wait，we tend to．A．keep ourselves busyB．get absent﹣mindedC．grow anxiousD．stay focused52．What is the difference between the Forced Wait and the Watched﹣Pot Wait？A．The Forced Wait requires some self﹣control．B．The Forced Wait makes people passive．C．The Watched﹣Pot Wait needs directions．D．The Watched﹣Pot Wait engages body and brain．53．What can we learn about the Lucky﹣Break Wait？A．It is less voluntary than the Forced Wait．B．It doesn't always bring the desired result．C．It is more fruitful than the Forced Wait．D．It doesn't give people faith and hope．54．What does the author advise us to do the next time we are waiting？A．Take it seriously．B．Don't rely on others．C．Do something else．D．Don't lose heart．55．The author supports his view by．A．exploring various causes of"waits"．B．describing detailed processes of"waits"．C．analyzing different categories of"waits"D．revealing frustrating consequences of"waits"第三部分：写作第一节：阅读表达阅读短文，并按照题目要求用英语回答问题．56．（10分）In the years of my growing up，Dad was strict with me．He made sure I made my bed

in a 1990s TV series，but it wasn't until I finished film studies that I pursued my career as an actress．Like those early days for Dad，I faced lots of rejections．Working in such a competitive industry，I've sometimes thought，"I can't do this any more．"Once，after a trip to Hollywood，I returned to Australia so depressed and spent months in my bedroom painting，listening to Eckhart Tolle's music and trying to find myself again．Dad sat me down and said，"Alice，I know it's hard，but it's all about persistence（坚持不懈）．"Now I get to work with Dad a lot，which I love．We both passionate about acting，which comes from us being so interested in people．If it weren't for Dad，I wouldn't be where I am today．He's my biggest fan，and when you have that in your life you can go a long way．56．What

You have been studying in Beijing University for nearly a month, during which you must have achieved a lot. Well, how is everything going?I am glad to tell you that I will attend the English speech contest to be held in Beijing next month, which is absolutely a great opportunity for me to improve myself. And now I am trying my best to make preparations for it. However, I have some difficulty in collecting relevant information and putting what I have learned into practice, which bothers me a lot. In addition, the most difficult thing is that I have no idea how I can attract the audience’s attention. I would appreciate it if you could do me a favor.Looking forward to your reply. By the way, after the contest, I am to drop in at your university to visit you.Yours truly,Li Jin 天津市部分区22017届第一学期期末考试高三英语试卷解析附:听力材料Text 1M: Say, how would you like to be a dress designer?W: It's my dream.Text 2M: Pamela, can you come to a meeting on Friday?W: I'm not sure.

Keep the change please.Text 8M: Last year, I took up the hobby of birding or bird watching after my friend took me out to observe some birds out near the lake. Basically, birding involves observing birds in their natural habitat. Actually, you don't need to leave your backyard to observe many birds. The best seasons to watch birds are in the spring and fall as they migrate from north to south in many areas. I usually go out with my telescope and a guidebook in the mornings because most birds are very active in finding food at that time. You also have to know where to look to see them and how to recognize their bird calls. Because I'm new to birding, I use my bird guidebook to look up certain kinds of birds. You have to look carefully at their feathers, the way they behave and move, and their size to recognize many birds because some look very similar. Also, take note of the time of year you see birds because this information might tell you more about their breeding area and migration routes. Besides looking at birds, I like the activity because it gives me a chance to exercise as I travel to different places, and it allows me to relax my mind in the great outdoors.。

Yevgeny Yakut moved to the Russian capital, hoping to live better, but soon found himself one of the many homeless people in the city known for its housing shortage and high cost of living. But he thinks he has found a way out. “I was warming myself in a railway station when I saw a television report on bloggers earning money by making advertisements,” he tells the TV channel Moscow 360.A young passer-by got chatting to him about the idea, and agreed to be Mr. Yakut’s cameraman, using a smart phone to record his friend’s humorous stories of daily struggle to “find food, a place to sleep, and keep out ofthe way of the police”. So viewers could see how he lives in central Moscow without a home.They upload the regular videos to YouTube, where Mr Yakut is hoping to attract enough subscribers(订阅者) to interest advertisers in his channel.

He also shows viewers the best place he has found to wash and shave---a modern shopping center bathroom---and how to make use of the items other Muscovites have abandoned in the city’s bins.The popularity of the pair’s You Tube channel has impressed v ideo-marketer Kirill Kalashnikov, who tells Moscow 360 that with some professional help, “this could be turned into a million subscribers within a year”.

A Taliban group took responsibility for the attack, claiming that the attack should serve as a warning to others. Members of the group follow a strict version of the local religion and believe girls are not permitted to go to school. Malala was targeted because she is appealing for girls’ rights to education in Swat Valley, Pakistan. Malala recovers from the attack at Queen Elizabeth Hospital in Birmingham, England .After a long period of recovery, Malala is starting as a nine-year student at Edgbaston High School. It is the oldest independent girl school in Birmingham, England. Though she has no concrete plans to return to Pakistan, Malala still speaks out as a voice for change in her country and everywhere.“I am excited that today I have achieved my dreams of going back to school. I want all girls in the world to have this basic opportunity,” Malala said in a statement. “I miss my classmates from Pakistan very much but I am looking forward to meeting my teachers and making new friends here in Birmingham.”Malala has been an Internet blogger, or writer, since she was 11years old. In 2011,she was awarded Pakistan’s National Peace Award for her bravery in writing about difficulties of life and education in the shadow of Taliban. She has spoken publicly about children’s rights and been nominated(提名) for an international children’s peace prize.After the attack in 2012, support for Malala poured in from around the world. The United Nations declared November 10 Malala Day. Former British Prime Minister Gordon Brown said the day honors Malala and shows the world that people of all sexes, all backgrounds and all countries stand behind the heroine.46．What’s the best title of this text? ________A．A terrorism attack.

So, environment experts urge people to reuse and recycle plastic bags.Maryland artist Allita Irby just does so. It all starts with the morning newspaper, and the plastic bag that the paper comes in. The mixed media artist recognized its rich possibilities three years ago. “As I was taking the newspaper out, I felt the texture(质地) of these bags. I just looked down and realized it takes three to make a braid(发辫). I’ll just put a few main materials in just to make it strong enough. ” Since then, Irby has been using plastic bags to create abstract lines in her art works.Before using plastic bags in her pieces, Irby used natural materials like feathers, leather and dried plants, all of which contain elements that represent her Native American ancestry and identity, like her piece called “Navaho Bundles”. “I was making a hair style, a Navaho hair style when the hair was heavy and it was looped back on itself. I took the piece and looped it back onto itself and secured it with a tie.Ms. Irby’s neighbors praise her ability to turn wastes into treasure. Some people, like Charlotte Hogan, asked the artist to teach them how to create art from used plastic bags. Aleta Meyer expressed surprise, “I’ve never given any more thought to what to do with a plastic bag. This is definitely different. ” Shirley Watts plans to show others her art. “I want to make a masterpiece that I can put in a frame and put it on my wall and then I know that I did it,” she said.Allita Irby says anyone can do it and all you have to do is open your eyes and bring the outside in. 51．The first paragraph is written to offer _______.A．the conditions of making plasticsB．the background of the storyC．the reason for using plasticsD．the importance of plastic bags52．We can learn that Allita Irby ________.A．will never use plastic bags herselfB．pays much attention to her hair styleC．was born in a Native American familyD．only uses plastics to make art works now53．What do you know about Allita Irby’s art works before she used plastic bags? ________A．They are similar to Navaho hair styles.B．They are actually tools used in daily life.C．They offer Irby the inspiration to recycle plastic bags.D．They are made of natural materials.54．What do Allita Irby, Charlotte Hogan, Aleta Mryer and Sjirley Watts have in common?A．They live in the same neighborhood.B．They are all mixed media artists.C．They are active in protecting the environment.D．They learn art from the same master.55．As for art works made from wastes, ________.A．Watts follows Irby to make art works.B．Meyer says she’ll never make plastic arts.C．Irby thinks what it needs is to discover beauty.D．Hogan thinks they are the best ones for churches.第Ⅱ卷(非选择题共35分)第三部分:写作(共两节;满分35分)第一节:阅读表达(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)A crow lived in a thick forest filled with many birds. The crow was very content with his carefree life until he saw a swan one day. The swan was flying over a lake. “This swan is so white,” he thought, “and I am so black. It must be the happiest bird in the world.”He shared his thoughts with the swan. “Actually,” the swan replied, “I thought so too until I met a parrot. It had brilliant colors of red and blue. No other bird could be happier than the parrot.”The crow went in search for the parrot, and found it rested on the top of an old rain tree. The parrot explained, “I too was very happy until I chanced upon a peacock. My colors paled in comparison to the peacock’s. Its rich colors put my coat to shame.”Curiosity defeated the crow, who was determined to look for the beautiful peacock. He finally found the peacock at the zoo. Hundreds of people gathered round to watch the peacock and its beautiful wings. After the crowd left, the crow rested itself onto a rock and said, “Dear peacock,” the crow said, “You are so beautiful. Every day, people come just to see you. People either drive me away or avoid me when they see me. You must be the happiest bird on the planet.”The peacock replied, “My beauty had me kept in this zoo. In the years I spent here, I often thought to myself that if were a crow, I could be enjoying a carefree life outside. Then after many months of internal struggles, I come to realize that I need to learn to be happy in what I have instead of expecting what I do not have. I am happy because I’m satisfied with my life here.”56．How did the crow feel about his life at the beginning?

In my opinion, you should apologize to your mother, as she has done nothing wrong to prevent you from Internet addiction. Although the Internet plays an important role in modern life, we can’t ignore its harm to us. Many students spend most of their time playing computer games or chatting aimlessly with others, which may not only result in poor health but also lead to decline in study as well as loss of communication in the real world.As students, we should devote our energy to study, when available, you may as well walk outside with your friends or take some exercise to keep fit instead of playing online games, only in this way can you live and study happily and healthily.Yours,Li Jin。

But with her 21 voice the judges were not sure if she spelled the word with the letter A or E. They talked it over and 22 decided to simply ask her what she had said. By now, the girl knew she had 23 the word, but instead of lying, she told the truth that she had said the 24 letter—so she lost the contest.As the girl walked off the 25 , the entire audience stood to their feet, clapping to applaud her ___26__. Later, dozens of newspaper reporters wrote about this 11-year-old girl’s honesty, even when it 27 her the contest. But the fact is that she 28 the biggest contest that day; the contest of her 29 .Probably the biggest test of our character and honesty is what we should do if we knew we would never get 30 . This young girl could easily have 31 and nobody would have known it but herself. But that’s just it; She would know she did wrong. It’s been said, ”If you32 , you make yourself cheap. ” This young girl was strong and smart enough to prize her own33 and character more than the prize from a spelling 34 . Her respect for herself was more important than any 35 others might give her for winning a contest.

There I was, walking home at one in the morning after a tiring practice at the theater. With opening night only a week away, I was still learning my lines. I was having trouble dealing with my part-time job at the bank and my acting at night at the same time. As I walked, I thought seriously about giving up both acting and San Francisco. City life had become too much for me.As I walked down empty streets under tall buildings, I felt very small and cold. I began running, both to keep warm and to keep away from any possible robbers . Very few people were still out. except a few sad-looking homeless people under blankets.About a block from my apartment , I heard a sound behind me. I turned quickly, half expecting to see someone with a knife or a gun. The street was empty. All I saw was a shining streetlight. Still, the noise had made me nervous, so I started to run faster. Not until I reached my apartment building and unlocked the door did I realize what the noise had been. It had been my wallet falling to the sidewalk.Suddenly I wasn't cold or tired any more, and I ran out of the door and back to where I'dheard the noise. Although I searched the sidewalk anxiously for fifteen minutes, my wallet was nowhere to be found.Just as I was about to give up the search, I heard the garbage truck pulled up to the sidewalk next to me. When a voice called from the inside, "Alisa Camacho?" I thought I was dreaming. How could this man know my name? The door opened, and out jumped a small red-haired man with an amused look in his eyes. "Is this what you're looking for?" he asked, holding up a small square shape.It was nearly 3 a.m. by the time I got into bed. I wouldn't get much sleep that night, but I had gotten my wallet back. I also had gotten back some enjoyment of city life. I realized that the city couldn't be a bad place as long as people were willing to help each other.41. How did the writer feel when she was walking home after work?A. Cold and sick.B. Fortunate and helpful.C. Satisfied and cheerful.D. Disappointed and helpless.42. From the first paragraph,we learn that the writer was busy _____.A. solving her problem at the bankB. taking part in various city activitiesC. learning acting in an evening schoolD. preparing for the first night show43. On her way home the writer _____.A. lost her wallet unknowinglyB. was stopped by a garbage truck driverC. was robbed of her wallet by an armed manD. found some homeless people following her44. In the fifth paragraph, why did the writer say she was dreaming?A. Someone offered to take her back home.B. A red-haired man came to see her.C. She heard someone call her name.D. Her wallet was found in a garbage truck.45. From the text, we can infer that the writer _____.A. would stop working at nightB. would stay on in San FranciscoC. would make friends with cleanersD. would give up her job at the bankBBrazil has become one of the developing world's great successes at reducing population growth but more by accident than design．While countries such as India have made joint efforts to reduce birth rates, Brazil had better results without really trying, says George Martine at Harvard．Brazil's population growth rate dropped from ％ a year between 1951 and 1960 to ％ a year between 1981and 1990, and Brazilian women now have only children on average．Martine says this figure may have fallen still further since 1990, an achievement that makes it the envy of many other Third World countries．Martine puts it down to, among other things, soap operas and installment(分期付款)plans introduced in the 1970s．Both played an important, although indirect, role in lowering the birth rate．Brazil is one of the world’s biggest producers of soap operas．Globl, Brazil’s most popular television network, shows three hours of soaps six nights a week, while three others show at least one hour a night．Most soaps are based on wealthy characters living the high life in big cities．Although they have never really tried to work in a message towards the problems of reproduction(生育), they describe middle and upper class values：not many children, women working, says Martine．They sent this image to all parts of Brazil and made people conscious of other patterns of behavior and other values, which were put into a very attractive package．Meanwhile, the installment plans tried to encourage the poor to become consumers．“This led to an enormous change in consumption(消费)patterns and consumption was incompatible(不相容的)with unlimited reproduction,”says Martine．to the passage, Brazil has lowered its population growth ________．A．by educating its citizensB．by careful family planningC．by developing TV programsD．by chanceto the passage, many Third World countries ________．A．haven’t given much attention to birth controlB．would soon join Brazil in controlling their birth rateC．haven’t yet found an effective measure to control their populationD．haven’t realized the importance of TV plays in family planningunderlined phrase in paragraph 3 is closest in meaning to________.it was caused by it up asit a reason for it tooperas have helped in lowering Brazil’s birth rate because ________．A．They keep people sitting long hours watching TVB．They have gradually changed people’s way of lifeC．People are drawn to their attractive packageD．They popularize birth control measuresis Martine’s conclusion about Brazil’s population growth?A．The increase in birth rate will increase consumption．B．The desire for consumption helps to reduce birth rate．C．Consumption goes with reproduction．D．A country’s production is limited b y its population growth．CSome people say that friendship is the only channel through which human beings can ever experience the value of life. In our daily life, it is likely that you share some common interests with others—they may like the same sport, go to the same school or like the same kind of music as you do. Since you often meet them, they become your acquaintances. Although some people develop many acquaintances, only a few become their good friends in their lifetime because there are differences between acquaintances and friends.It is said that true friendship begins when someone knows what you are really like, but still likes you anyway. A true friend shows loyalty from the very beginning of the relationship. A friend will go through challenges to help you without expecting anything in return. A“friend”today may probably become a“true friend” tomorrow when they get involved in unexpected circumstances together with you—for example, when you are going through a difficult experience and your friend is there to help you out. However, some acquaintances might leave you when you badly need their help. At this time, you can experience what true friendship is.In our life, some people seem to go through life with plenty of friends. They may be funny or they may have a bright and pleasant personality. For these people, wherever they go, people seem to like them and welcome their company. But when they go through challenging life experiences, some of their friends are not there to help them. Therefore we can say some of their friends are not real friends and their friendship is just skin-deep.However, others seem to go through life with no friends at all. They like to be alone, to travel by themselves or to do their own thing. It’s a pity that few of t hese people find success in life because they have no friends. They lack the best gift in life—friendship. 51. Which of the following statements about acquaintances is TRUE?A. They have all of the same interests as you do.B. You seldom meet them in your life.C. They are sure to become your good friends.D. Not all of them can become your friends.52. According to the passage you may get to know the meaning of friendship better whenyou_______.A. go to the same school as your friendB. get into troublethe same kind of music as your friendD. see your friend oftenknow from the passage that_______.doesn't matter if one has friends or not.with bright personality are easy to have friends.without friends are always unhappy.'s easier to lose a friend than get one.54. What does the underlined word ”skin-deep” in the third paragraph mean?A. Very deep.B. Not deep at allC. As precious as skinD. Hidden under the skin55. What’s the writer’s attitude towards people without friends in their life?A. InterestedB. AngryC. HopefulD. RegretfulⅤ.选词填空（10%）（根据句子含义选择正确的单词或短语，并用其适当形式填空）56. The fundamental problem ________ their inability to distinguish between reality and invention.57. Topics for conversation should ________ the experience and interests of the students.58. My brother opened his packet just to satisfy my ________.59. After a decade’s research, the scientists ________ the genetic cause of the disease now.60.

After climbing up a hill for a panoramic (全景的) view of the blue sea, white buildings and green olive trees, I paused to catch my breath and then positioned myself to take the best photo of this panorama.Unfortunately, just as I took out my camera, a woman approached from behind, and planted herself right in front of my view. Like me, this woman was here to stop, sigh and appreciate the view.Patient as I was, after about 15 minutes, my camera scanning the sun and reviewing the shot I would eventually take, I grew frustrated. Was it too much to ask her to move so I could take just one picture of the landscape? Sure, I could have asked her, but something prevented me from doing so. She seemed so content in her observation. I didn't want to mess with that.Another 15 minutes passed and I grew bored. The woman was still there. I decided to take the photo anyway. And now when I look at it, I think her presence in the photo is what makes the image interesting. The landscape, beautiful on its own, somehow comes to life and breathes because this woman is engaging with it.This photo, with the unique beauty that unfolded before me and that woman who "ruined" it, now hangs on a wall in my bedroom. What would she think if she knew that her figure is captured (捕捉) and frozen on some stranger's bedroom wall? A bedroom, after all, is a very private space, in which some woman I don't even know has been immortalized (使……永存). In some ways, she lives in my house.Perhaps we all live in each other's space. Perhaps this is what photos are for: to remind us that we all appreciate beauty, that we all share a common desire for pleasure,for connection, for something that is greater than us.That photo is a reminder, a captured moment, an unspoken conversation between two women, separated only by a thin square of glass.41. What happened when the author was about to take a photo?A. Her camera stopped working.B. A woman blocked her view.C. Someone asked her to leave.D. A friend approached from behind.42. According to the author, the woman was probably ______.A. enjoying herselfB. losing her patienceC. waiting for the sunsetD. thinking about her past43. In the author's opinion, what makes the photo so alive?A. The rich color of the landscape.B. The perfect positioning of the camera.C. The woman's existence in the photo.D. The soft sunlight that summer day.44. The photo on the bedroom wall enables the author to better understand ________.A. the need to be close to natureB. the importance of private spaceC. the joy of the vacation in ItalyD. the shared passion for beauty45. The passage can be seen as the author's reflections upon ________.A. a particular life experienceB. the pleasure of travelingC. the art of photographyD. a lost friendshipCThis 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 lives might 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.46. 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.47. The proposal put forward by Dobrindt aims to ______.A. stop people from breaking traffic rulesB. help promote fully automatic drivingC. protect drivers of all ages and racesD. prevent serious property damage48. 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.49. Driverless vehicles in public transport see no bright future in ______.A. SingaporeB. the UKC. the USD. Germany50. What could be the best title for passage?A. Autonomous Driving: Whose Liability?B. Fully Automatic Cars: A New BreakthroughC. Autonomous Vehicles: Driver Removed!D. Driverless Cars: Root of Road AccidentsDI read somewhere that we spend a full third of our lives waiting. But whereare we doing all of this waiting, and what does it mean to an impatient society like ours? To understand the issue, let's take a look at three types of "waits".The very purest form of waiting is the Watched-Pot Wait. It is without doubt the most annoying of all. Take filling up the kitchen sink (洗碗池) as an example.There is absolutely nothing you can do while this is going on but keep both eyes fixed on the sink until it's full. During these waits, the brain slips away from the body and wanders about until the water runs over the edge of the counter and onto your socks. This kind of wait makes the waiter helpless and mindless.A cousin to the Watched-Pot Wait is the Forced Wait. This one requires a bitof discipline. Properly preparing packaged noodle soup required a Forced Wait.Directions are very specific. "Bring three cups of water to boil, add mix, simmer three minutes, remove from heat, let stand five minutes." I have my doubts that anyone has actually followed the procedures strictly. After all, Forced Wait requires patience.Perhaps the most powerful type of waiting is the Lucky-Break Wait. This type of wait is unusual in that it is for the most part voluntary. Unlike the Forced Wait, which is also voluntary, waiting for your lucky break does not necessarily mean that it will happen.Turning one's life into a waiting game requires faith and hope, and is strictly for the optimists among us. On the surface it seems as ridiculous as following the directions on soup mixes, but the Lucky-Break Wait well serves those who are willing to do it. As long as one doesn't come to rely on it, wishing for a few good things to happen never hurts anybody.We certainly do spend a good deal of our time waiting. The next time you're standing at the sink waiting for it to fill while cooking noodle soup that you'll have to eat until a large bag of cash falls out of the sky, don't be desperate. You're probably just as busy as the next guy.51. While doing a Watched-Pot Wait, we tend to ________.A. keep ourselves busyB. get absent-mindedC. grow anxiousD. stay focused52. What is the difference between the Forced Wait and the Watched-Pot Wait?A. The Forced Wait requires some self-control.B. The Forced Wait makes people passive.C. The Watched-Pot Wait needs directions.D. The Watched-Pot Wait engages body and brain.53. What can we learn about the Lucky-Break Wait?A. It is less voluntary than the Forced Wait.B. It doesn't always bring the desired result.C. It is more fruitful than the Forced Wait.D. It doesn't give people faith and hope.54. What does the author advise us to do the next time we are waiting?A. Take it seriously.B. Don't rely on others.C. Do something else.D. Don't lose heart.55. The author supports his view by ________.A. exploring various causes of "waits"B. describing detailed processes of "waits"C. analyzing different categories of "waits"D. revealing frustrating consequences of "waits"56.
