第一节（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分）
阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该选项涂黑。
Both of my parents worked full-time when I was a little girl, so my grandmother would stay at our house during the day. We would watch game shows in the living room. Our favorite was The Price is Right. We would call out our answers along with the contestants.
When I got older and started going to school, we couldn’t watch our game shows regularly. That was okay with me, though, because the one thing I liked better than watching game shows with my grandmother was helping her bake. Watching her in the kitchen was amazing: she never seemed to need the recipes but everything she made tasted delicious.
At first I would just sit i n the kitchen and watch, even though I didn’t understand what she was doing. As I got older, she let me help with the easy parts, such as measuring the sugar. The day she let me separate the eggs，I felt like I had found plete pleasure.
At last, my parents decided that I could take care of myself，and my grandmother stopped ing over every day. The love of baking, however, stayed with me. I started baking by myself, and even if the cookies ended up burnt sometimes, more often they turned out pretty well. I tried out new recipes, and whenever I got to a thorny part, I would call my grandmother for advice. Sometimes I would call her just to talk, too. I felt like I could talk to her about anything.
My grandmother passed away ten years ago, but I still think of her every day. Last week, I found a recipe book she made for me. It included her recipes for brownies, cookies, and my favorite, lemon pie.
As I looked through the pages, I thought I could hear her voice. She was the one who taught me not just about baking, but about life.
21. The passage is developed in order of ______.
A. time
B. place
C. logic
D. events
22. While helping her grandmother bake, the author _______.
A. missed the game shows
B. refused to go to school
C. showed great interest
D. could take care of herself
23. What does the underlined word “thorny" in Paragraph 4 most probably mean?
A. Basic.
B. mon.
C. Difficult.
D. Special.
24. From the passage we know the author's grandmother _____.
A. lived with her family
B. was very skilled at baking
C. published a recipe book
D. had been on a game show
B
Going green seems to be a fad(时尚)for a lot of people these days. Whether that is good or bad, we can’t really say, but for the two of us, going green is not a fad but a l ifestyle.
On April22, xx, we decided to go green every single day for an entire year. This meant doing 365 different green things, and it also meant challenging ourselves to go green beyond easy things. Rather than recycle and reduce our energy, we had to think of 365 different green things to do and this was no easy task.
With the idea of going green every single day for a year, Our Green Year started. My wife and I decided to educate people about how they could go green in their lives and hoped we could show people all the green things that could be done to help the environment. We wanted to push the message that every little bit helps.
Over the course of Our Green Year, we pletely changed our lifestyle. We now shop at organic (有机的) stores. We consume less meat, choosing green food. We have greatly reduced our buying we don’t need. We have given away half of what we owned through websites. Our home is kept clean by vinegar and lemon juice, with no chemical cleaners. We make our own butter, enjoying the smell of home-made fresh bread. In our home office anyone caught doing something ungreen might be punished.
Our minds have been changed by Our Green Year. We are grateful for the chance to have been able to go green and educate others. We believe that we do have the power to change things and help
our planet.
25. What might be the best title for the passage?
A. Going Green.
B. Protecting the Planet.
C. Keeping Open-minded.
D. Celebrating Our Green Year.
26. It was difficult for the couple to live a green life for the whole year because_________.
A. they were expected to follow the green fad
B. they didn’t know how to educate other people
C. they were unwilling to reduce their energy
D. they needed to perform unusual green tasks
27. What did the couple do over the course of Our Green Year?
A. They tried to get out of their ungreen habits.
B. They ignored others’ ungreen behavior.
C. They chose better chemical cleaners.
D. They sold their home-made food.
28. What can we infer form the last paragraph?
A. The government will give support to the green project.
B. The couple may continue their project in the future.
C. Some people disagree with the couple’s green ideas.
D. Our Green Year is being a national campaign.
C
Jessica Westervelt, a Spanish teacher at Bethlehem High School in New York, created an activity called "House Hunters", which was inspired by the popular television show "House Hunters International", for her Spanish class about four years ago.
Similar to the show, students work in groups, pretending to be real house agents, and look for three houses in Spanish-speaking countries. She uses the activity to teach vocabulary related to the home, chores, travel and vacation. She created the exercise because she wanted to incorporate her students' interests into the curriculum（课程）. At the time, a group of her students were big fans of the show.
The students look for a home for Westervelt to buy to live in, or rent for vacation. She tells them what she is looking for in a home and gives them a budget. Students work in groups of three, and each group is responsible for finding one house in a Spanish-speaking country that fits the requirements.
The groups usually make a brochure describing the houses they find. Each group presents their findings to the class, while the other students take notes. The entire activity is done in Spanish, so students get to practice their writing, listening and conversation skills. They also get some cultural education when researching homes in Spanish-speaking countries. Westervelt says that students planning to take the class look forward to her project.
Westervelt says, "I think any time that you can find a way to link into something that they are interested in outside of school, it makes it more realistic for them and it makes that activity much more enjoyable for them."
29. How did Westervelt e up with the idea of the activity?
A. She got it from a TV program.
B. She was inspired by her students.
C. She learned it from a house agent.
D. She was taught that in high school.
30. Which of the following can replace the underlined word "incorporate" in Paragraph 2?
A. change.
B. absorb.
C. force.
D. persuade.
31. What are the students supposed to do with the houses they find?
A. Live in the houses for a while.
B. Rent the houses for their vacation.
C. Write an introduction to the houses.
D. Choose and buy one for their teacher.
32. What do Westervelt's words in the last paragraph mean?
A. Most school activities are not enjoyable.
B. Students should be realistic about study.
C. Out-of-school activities are very important.
D. Learning should be bined with interest.
D
It's a scene so mon: Coffee shops are filled with customers who seem more absorbed in their study or work than in their drinks. The coffee shop has bee a popular place for modern-day students and workers. It's less boring than the library, and yet it is still filled with the same energy as a school.
There might be a good reason why students are drawn to social spaces like coffee shops for study.
A recent study conducted by researchers in Belgium indicates that productivity may increase in coffee shops.
As part of the study, about 40 participants were placed side-by-side in pairs and asked to undergo （经历）reaction-time tests. Each participant sat in front of a puter screen, which flashed different colored squares. The goal for each person was to hit the key on the keyboard that corresponded with each square. Though each participant worked separately, they were affected by how hard their neighbor was working. The researchers varied the difficulty levels of each person's test, and they found that if they paired a person working on a medium-difficult test with someone taking a very difficult test, the first person would work harder. Not only that, but the first person's accuracy would also improve.
"It seems like noticing that their partner is working hard motivated people to work hard too," a researcher explained. But the researchers couldn't exactly explain why. "One possibility is that the hard workers' body position got noticeably more tense. So next time you enter a coffee shop to study or work, sitting next to customers who are obviously in the zone may be a wise choice."
33. Why do students prefer to study in coffee shops rather than in libraries?
A. They can enjoy drinks while studying.
B. It's less boring for them to study in a library.
C. They can conduct their academic researches.
D. Coffee shops have a better atmosphere.
34. How would a participant be affected by a neighbor doing a more difficult test?
A. He would work less hard.
B. He would possibly give up.
C. He would achieve better results.
D. He would change the difficulty level.
35. What can we learn from the last paragraph?
A. Further research will be done in the future.
B. Sit next to a hard worker if you want to study.
C. Customers should sit tensely in a coffee shop.
D. The researchers have fully explained the result.
