Part ⅢReading Comprehension (30 marks)

Directions: Read the following three passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage.

A

I had been looking forward to my sister Patti’s visit for weeks. I had the whole thing planned. It would be one of our usual short-but-sweet get-togethers: a nice meal, some shopping, an outing with our kids.

When Patti arrived, lunch was cooking on the stove. Everything was perfect. Then, a few

minutes later, a terrific clap of thunder rattled the window. A storm

had sped in out of nowhere. The lights went out—for the next

12hours.

It seemed like a disaster. Our long-awaited plans! My

homemade lunch! Seeing the unfinished pork, we had to eat cold

food. We didn’t know what we can do next. The children asked,

“Can we watch TV?”“The TV isn’t working.”I explained. So they

begged, “Well, how about a video, then?”“How about computer games?”“Can’t you just microwave some popcorn?” I quickly realized just how much we all took electricity for granted.

But as the evening wore on, I also realized I had been taking something else for granted: the power of relationships. The point of my sister’s visit was not that we could go shopping. It didn’t matter whether we took our kids to the zoo. What counted were the people, not the plans.

We all sang old camp songs and put on shadow plays. After the kids eagerly went to bed with their own flashlights, Patti and I brought chairs onto my small front porch (门廊). At first we talked about our ruined plans. Then we sat back silently, listening to the rain dropping through the trees. I hadn’t sat out there in ages, and night air felt cool. We began to talk about our friends. We planned our parents’ upcoming anniversary party. Our conversation went to places it hadn’t gone in years.

I realized that what Patti and I had been looking forward to most was each other —something that often seemed vague on past short visits. Those get-togethers have always been enjoyable, but I must admit that they tend to melt together in my memory. That night the lights went out, on the other hand, they will burn brightly for a long time.

56. The author planned to do something for her sister’s visit except __________.

A. seeing a film

B. doing some shopping

C. cooking a nice meal

D. going out with their kids

57. Why did the lights go out?

A. Because thunder rattled the window.

B. Because a storm came.

C. Because someone played a trick on them.

D. Because they planned so.

58. It can be inferred from the passage that__________.

A. their get-togethers were usually long

B. the author prepared a party for Patti’s visit

C. the author and Patti talked a lot this time

D. the lunch was ready when Patti arrived

59. On the night without power, the author was at last.

A. mad

B. grateful

C. sad

D. awful

60. What did the author try to convey through this passage?

A. A lot of things can be done when the electricity is cut off.

B. The plan should be more careful.

C. We should always turn off the lights.

D. What counts are the people, not the plans.

B

When introducing American universities, some of the first institutions to mention are the Ivy League schools. Originally, the Ivy League was an athletic conference made

up of 8 private institutes of higher learning in northeastern United States.

However, as time went on, these schools also became known for their

excellence in academics besides athletics. Included in the Ivy League schools

are Brown University, Columbia University, Cornell University, Dartmouth

College, Princeton University, University of Pennsylvania, Yale University,

and Harvard University. These 8 schools have been recognized as some of

the best colleges and universities in the United States.

Harvard University is a private institution located in Cambridge, Massachusetts. The university includes a number of graduate and professional schools, as well as a college for

undergraduates. In 2012, Harvard ranked number one in US News’ ranking of national universities again. Founded in 1636, Harvard is the oldest institute of higher education in the United States. It can be said that first there was Harvard, then the United States of America. Also, Harvard’s library contains the oldest collection of books in the United States as well as the largest private collection in the world. Harvard has also been described by Forbes Magazine as one of the “billionaire universities” as of their recent list of 469 billionaires, 50 received a degree from Harvard.

Harvard College (the institute for undergraduate students) is one of the most famous schools in the United States. It offers over 40 undergraduate fields of study, including astrophysics, mathematics, neurobiology(神经生物学), etc. And the financial aid program there is amazing. Even though the tuition is about 37,576, and there are other expenses throughout the year, about 70% of undergraduate students received financial aid. Out of those students, over 90% of them had their full need met. And the policies for international students are the same for U.S. citizens.

Harvard College is very selective, as it only admits about 6% of their applicants. For admission into Harvard College, it is required that students take the SAT or the ACT, as well as 2 SAT Subject Tests. Harvard will also look at other factors during admission such as your application essay, high school transcript, work experience, GPA (Grade Point Average),your interview, recommendations, and most importantly, your character and personal qualities.

If you are sending a text message, watching TV or listening to the radio, you may stop and give this your full attention. Multi-tasking shrinks(使……萎缩) the brain, research suggests.

A study found that men and women who frequently used several types

of technology at the same time had less grey matter in a key part of the

brain. University of Sussex researchers said, “Using mobile phones, laptops

and other media devices simultaneously could be changing the structure of

our brains.”

Worryingly, the part of the brain that shrinks is involved in processing emotion. The finding follows research which has linked multi-tasking with a shortened attention span, depression, anxiety and lower grades at school.

The researchers began by asking 75 healthy men and women how often they divided their attention between different types of technology. This could mean sending a text message while listening to music and checking email, or speaking on the phone while watching TV and surfing the internet. The volunteers were then given brain scans which showed they had less grey matter in a region called the anterior cingulated cortex (ACC)(前扣带皮质). Scientists have proved that brain structure can be changed on exposure to fresh environments and experience.

Other studies have shown that training – such as learning to play magic tricks or taxi drivers’ learning the map of London – can increase grey-matter densities(密度) in certain parts.

Experts have also warned of the harmful impact technology can have on our memory and attention span. The University of California team conducted a survey of more than 18,000 people aged between 18 and 99, and found 20% had problems with memory. Researchers were shocked greatly by the 14% of 18 to 39-year-old people who also worried about their memories.

Multi-tasking may shorten attention span, making it harder to focus and form memories, the researchers said, adding that youngsters may be particularly affected by stress.

66. The underlined word "simultaneously" in Para.2 means _________.

A. on one’s own

B. at no time

C. at the same time

D. by accident

67. All of the following are possible effects of multi-tasking except_________.

A. saving time

B. a shortened attention span

C. lower grades at school

D. depression and anxiety

68. What can increase grey-matter densities?

A. Sending a text message while listening to music .

B. Students’ doing their homework.

C. T axi drivers’ learning the map of London.

D. Speaking on the phone while watching TV.

69. In which section of a newspaper can the passage be found?

A. Entertainment.

B. Economy.

C. Tourism.

D. Science.

70. Which of the following can be the best title of this passage?

A. Media multi-tasking is becoming more popular.

B. Multi-tasking shrinks the brain.

C. Multi-tasking may shorten attention span.

D. People are worried about their memories.

Part Ⅳ Writing (45 marks)

Section A (10 marks)

Directions: Read the following passage. Fill in the numbered blanks by using the information fromthe passage.

Write NO MORE THAN THREE WORDS for each answer.

How do we find happiness every single day? How do we get more out of life to the fullest?

There are 3 easy ways to enjoy life in daily life.

One way to find happiness within you is to show your appreciation to others.

Appreciation not only gives happiness to others but we also receive happiness in

return first for writing a letter of appreciation and second for the response we get.

I encourage you to take 3 Post-it notes and write one Post-it of appreciation for

your classmate, one for your friend and one for your parents and see the happiness you feel within and the joy you receive in return. It doesn ’t cost any money; it ’s simple and very rewarding.

Often we are too tough on ourselves by telling us we could have done things better. Have a

look at your life and evaluate where you are today and what you have achieved. Often we tend to forget the achievements during the journey of our life and we need to be reminded. Take 5 minutes right now to write down what you have achieved in life and what you are proud of. Go over the list and tell yourself what a wond]erful person you are and what a great job you have done.

Have you ever kept a journal? Sometimes writing things down will give us clarity and

awareness. When you write down in a journal, you have the ability to express yourself as you truly would like to be. Writing is part of inner peace, which is a road towards happiness. Take 5 minutes every day to write down your ideas and thoughts in your journal. By doing so, you will find inner peace and a sense of happiness.

The 3 easy steps above take only 15 minutes. Not only will it bring happiness to you but also

to others.

Directions: Read the following passage. Answer the questions according to the information

given in the passage.

When I was younger, I thought that boys and grown men should not cry. The tears were signs of being weak and a sissy(胆小鬼), which a man is not supposed to be. This

was even strengthened in my young mind when the song, Boys Don't Cry , came

out in the early 1980s.

But just this June, I discovered that courage is not all about trying to keep all the pain inside in check. Courage is not all about trying to hide the tears. It is the opposite —the tears strengthen the heart's courage. And I saw this in my father. That day my father cried.

My 18-year-old sister eloped (私奔) and from it I saw how weak my father's heart was. My sister and I were used to seeing him as an iron-willed figure and authoritarian father.

For three days after my sister eloped, he would not talk. He would just sit quietly outside our house in the dark. On the fourth night, I sat beside him and asked him to tell me what he felt about everything.

It has been years since I have laid my hand on my father's shoulder as we have drifted apart (疏远) farther and farther while I was growing up. That night,though, I sensed my father trying to control his pain and I wanted him to be able to let it out. We have all cried over what happened except him. All of us except him.

The simple touch and my words, “Dad, it is not your fault.”, broke my father's dam. In the darkness, he began to cry. I felt his shoulders shaking as he whispered, "Where did I go wrong? All I ever wanted was for my children to grow up right. Why couldn't your sister wait?"

I understood then why he preferred to be in the dark. By being there, he hoped to spare his family of a father's pain. His tears, though we did not see them before that night, were there all the same. I saw his courage, that night when my father cried with my hand on his shoulder, and understood his pain.

81. Why did the author think men shouldn’t cry when he was younger?

参考范文

As is shown in the picture, something is thrown out of a moving car and a cleaner can do nothing but glare at it.

Nowadays, this phenomenon happens frequently, causing pollution to the environment and bringing heavy burden to the cleaners. Actually, it is not only impolite but also dangerous to drivers and passers-by.

Obviously, it is the ignorance of safety that leads to such behavior. In my view, we should take measures to solve the problem. On one hand, laws should be made to stop it. Whoever throws waste from cars or buses will be fined. On top of it, the government can offer taxi drivers free waste bags so that passengers can throw waste into the bags. On the other hand, individuals should develop the awareness of environment and keep it in mind that safety comes first. Only when all the people attach importance to society ethics can we have a better environment to live in.

Conversation 1

W: I really don’t understand this. So many numbers and names for chemicals….

M: It’s not that difficult. His class is really organized.

W: Organized? Look at my notebook! It’s a mess!

M: You are not organized, but Mr. Smith is! I like him.

W: Why do you think he is a good teacher?

M: He is experienced. He makes me interested in science. I can’t wait to do the next experiment. Conversation 2

W: Witz Hotel. May I help you?

M: I’d like to book a single room for three nights.

W: OK. Your arrival date, please?

M: April 19th.

W: Well, let me see.... Yes, and what’s your name, sir?

M: David Moore. By the way, how much is it?

W: 150 dollars per night including breakfast.

M: I see. One more thing, I don’t like meat.

W: No problem, sir. We’ll make a note of it.

Conversation 3

M: Hi. Is Lucy there, please?

W: I’m sorry. She’s out for lunch. Do you want to leave a message?

M: Yes, this is Harris. Could you tell Lucy that I’ll wait for her at the box office of the cinema at 7:10?

W: S ure, Harris. You’ll wait for her at the box office at 10.

M: No, at 7:10.

W: Oh, sorry. At 7:10. I’ll tell Lucy.

M: Thank you!

Conversation 4

M: What is the meaning of the expression “don’t burn bridges”?

M: I don’t get it.

W: Well, imagine if you walk across a bridge and then burn it behind you. You can never go back, right?

M: Right.

W: So, that’s also true of relationships. For example, let’s say you have a boss that you dislike, an d one day, you tell him all the horrible things you think about him. Well, that means you can never work at that job again, or never use your boss as a reference. It’ll make your life harder. M: Oh. Well, I have something to tell you…. Today, I shouted at my boss.

W: Oh, no. It’s $999. That’s really too expensive. We can’t afford it right now.

This is the Lakewood Public Address System. This is not a test like the one we had last week. I repeat, this is not a test. The Western Hill Fire is spreading toward Lakewood much quicker than we had expected. We are therefore requiring all residents to leave this area in no time.

Springfield to the north, Point Cabina Station to the east, and Galveston to the south are all in the safe zone. It will take less than thirty minutes to drive to any of these towns. Take as many things as you can fit in your car, but do not delay. We cannot take any chances. We have orders from the state police to make sure that the entire town of Lakewood is empty by five o’clock today, and we have been given permission to use force to remove anyone who has not left the area on their own.

You have plenty of time to get all your family members, pets, and belongings together. Stay calm, but get started as soon as possible.

All the houses are painted white and the skies are clear. It's not surprising that the life here is very relaxing, and it is also home to plenty of cafes and art galleries. Wengen in Switzerland Do you ever wonder how the world was before cars were invented? The village called Wengen might just help you realize your dreams. Cars have been banned from this area for close to 100 years, and everything looks like it was taken right out of Heidi. The locals have kept their Swiss culture undamaged. Shirakawa-go in Japan This village is certainly known for its unusual houses with triangular roofs which seem to resemble hands joined in prayer. It's designed to keep snow from piling up on top of houses. These houses are the symbol of the area but there aren't many of them left anymore. Eze in France France in itself is pretty, but its most attractive village is Eze. This community seems to be frozen in time. This village is the perfect melting pot of cultures because of its closeness to Nice. During the Middle Ages, it was desired by invaders(侵略者),and while this was a cause of sadness for the local people in the past, today the village enjoys its rich heritage(遗产).The architecture here is so diverse. Bibury in England

When I was a baby I would stand in my wooden crib(婴儿床) and watch the world go by through the window. Some neighbors watched me watching the world go by with by big, wondering eyes and found me very interesting. They used to call me “the beauty at the window”. The early neighbors I could remember were from the second house I lived in. Peter and Paul were twins. We went to play school together although they were a year older than me. I well remember the Alsatian they had which ran into me when I was invited to their fifth birthday party. Needless to say, I was well-known for my loud screams after the party. But they said the pet was scared of my screams and didn’t appear until the party was over. Peter and Paul were the first boys who encouraged me to climb the gate. I could never tell the difference between boy and girl behaviors—I just did what I thought was fun. Not only did I have a great time performing that first climb, I also got my skirts dirty, and was criticized by my mother. The Japanese neighbors I had living in this same house were my favorite, as they introduced me to sea-salt baked shrimps (烤虾) which were so crisp that you could eat the shrimp totally. They gave me some seaweed for my birthday. Thankfully, no other member in my family enjoyed the seaweed as I did. Perhaps what my mother used to joke to me was true, that I was picked up out of the dustbin that belonged to a Japanese home. Maybe sometimes it is difficult to find good neighbors in this society. But all it takes is a spark(火花) to get a fire going. I have decided to be that spark wherever I live and pass love on to my neighbors. 21. We can guess "the Alsatian" in the twin brothers' home is ___________. A. a small child B. an interesting toy C. a dog D. a bicycle 22. From the passage we can know that the author___________. A. enjoyed the Japanese neighbors' cooking style most B. had difficulty getting on with the twin brothers' family C. was described as interesting when playing with boys D. had many neighbors that worked in restaurants 23. What can we infer from the passage? A. The author often moved to other places. B. Peter and Paul liked to play tricks on others. C. The neighbors the author had were good at cooking. D. The author had a good relationship with her neighbors. B Below are four ads on the website.Artful Experience It’s an artful experience even if you’re artistically challenged.
