A child is born into a family and becomes a part of the society later. There have to be certain principles in place to determine one's behavior and ensure a harmonious society.My family values were primarily shaped by my mother. As a child, she always reminded me to be punctual and to work harder. But her greatest gift was teaching me the importance of honesty. She taught me that mistakes in life were unavoidable, but I should never sacrifice my honesty to cover for my mistakes.Honesty has been with me ever since. In my friendships, I'm always willing to admit to errors and never pretend to be all-knowing. That's why many friends come to me for help. They know I'll be straight-forward and tell them the truth, not only the things they want to hear. As my mother said: "When we're honest, we earn others’ trust and society's credit".附2:评分说明(主观题部分)语法填空评分说明:按照所给答案给分。

It was then that I hear d a sound “miaow”. Looking through the leaves, I saw the culp rit(肇事者), a neighborhood cat. He must have shaken the bird out of the 41 and gotten himself trapped up in the tree as well. Cli mbing up through the branches, I 42 him, gave him a scoldi ng and dropped him softly to the ground. Then I gently picked up the baby bird and slowly reached my arm out as 43 as I could to place it in the nest.In the following weeks I have looked up at the nest several tim es, but have only been able to see the mother bird.

Our task was to deliver as many boxes of food as possible to those in need in , . There were no Christmas carolers(唱颂歌的人) walking in these streets that were lined with boarded-up(用木板封住的) houses and broken windows. Mothers kept their children c lose as they hurried down in the streets. It was mid-afternoon, but the bright sun couldn’t warm the place.Red tickets in the windows marked which houses we were to visit. Our white truck stopped in front of one house and our gr oup knocked on the door. Our arms were filled with ham, brea d and other essentials to make the perfect Christmas dinner. Four small faces glanced through the curtains and one exhau sted mom answered the door. She seemed embarrassed to b e caught in her nightgown(睡衣) with undone hair. She was in her late-20s, but her rough skin and tired eyes added years.“Sacred Heart food deliver service,” I smiled. “ Where can we put this for you? ”She pointed to a place and as we entered the house, I noticed the conditions of the house they lived in. The children climbe d around, wearing only diapers(尿布). There were no carpets, only cold concrete beneath our fe et. There was no Christmas tree or decorations. My heart san k. It was so cold, and I found it hard to believe that this was th e reality for this family. We set boxes down and the mother gr abbed my hand.“You don’t know how much of a blessing this is to me and my family,” she said, crying. “We are just getting by.” I opened my arms and gave her a hug.“Happy holidays!” I replied before I headed out the door. I real ized how warm I felt inside.This was unlike anything I had ever experienced. We cannot help what family we are born into, but we can help each other.61.

We learn from the text that __________.A. the poor can also help othersB. assisting the poor needs actionC. people should help each otherD. having more children causes povertyCThe revised edition of the Dictionary of Modern Standard Chin ese has just been released, with more than 100 new terms ad ded to it. The new terms include weixin, or WeChat etc. There are also some older words recently used again and repurpos ed for contemporary(当代的) use, such as tuhao. Commonly used in the 1930s to refer to local persons who are rich but cruel, tuhao today laughs at a new privileged class that has appeared in : people who are “extremely wealthy but lacking in education or values.”But why did weixin and tuhao make the cut, while other popul ar terms were shut out? Not admitted to the new edition were such words as diaosi, shengnü, and baifumei.Li Xingjian, the chief editor of the dictionary, said about 30 lan guage experts worked for more than three years to select the new terms. They took into account three main considerations: whether the term has entered public topic, whether the use of the term has become stable and whether the term meets a m inimum level of tastefulness.“We considered and discussed a huge list,” Mr. Li said. “A ter m like diaosi is not very tasteful, and it’s unlikely to be used fo r much longer. And shengnü, we thought it wasn’t that signific ant. It’s used a lot by young people online, but otherwise peop le don’t really use it.”“On the other hand, tuhao has always been around. It has a mocking(嘲弄的) meaning, but it’s not necessarily negative,” he said. “We t hink it’ll stay around for a while, because in real life there reall y are these kinds of people and therefore a need to describe t hem.”The Dictionary of Modern Standard Chinese, first published in 2004, is appreciated especially by scholars and those interes ted in contemporary usage. But it is not the first reference dicti onary in . That honor still goes to the New China Character Di ctionary and the Contemporary Chinese Dictionary. Every five years, the Dictionary of Modern Standard Chinese is revised, with outdated words dropped to make room for new ones. 66. What does the underlined words phrase “make the cut” in Paragraph 2 mean?A. Select.B. Exclude.C. Replace.D. Explain.67. How many aspects were taken into consideration to choose the new terms for the dictionary?A. 2.B. 3.C. 4.D. 5.68. Why was shengnü not chosen into the new Dictionary of Modern Standard Chinese?A. Because it is never used in their daily life.B. Because it is not popular on the Internet these days.C. Because it is neither tasteful nor likely to endure long.D. Because it is not so important and is mainly used onli ne by young people.69. Which is NOT True according to the passage?A. The Dictionary of Modern Standard Chinese was first publi shed in 2004.B. The Dictionary of Modern Standard Chinese is the first refe rence dictionary.C. The term tuhao will exist for some time.D. About 30 language experts worked for over three years to choose the new terms.70. What is the main idea of the passage?A. Every five years, the Dictionary of Modern Standard Chine se is revised.B. People think differently about the newly chosen terms.C. Many new terms were chosen into the Dictionary of Moder n Standard Chinese.D. The language experts think highly of newly chosen terms.Part Ⅳ Writing (45 marks)Section A (10 marks)Directions: Read the following passage. Fill in the numbered b lanks by using the information from the passage.Write NO MORE THAN THREE WORDS for each answer. Chinese parents are very generous when it comes to educatin g their children. Not caring about the money, parents often se nd their children to the best schools or even abroad to Englan d, the US or . They also want their children to take extra-course activities where they will either learn a musical instrum ent or ballet, or other classes that will give them a head start i n life. The Chinese believe that the more expensive an educat ion is, the better it is. So parents will spend unreasonable am ount of money on education. Even poor couples will buy computers for their sons or daughters.However, what most parents fail to see is that the best educat ion they can give to their children is usually very cheap. Parents can see that their children’s skills vary, skilled in som e areas while poor in others. What most parents fail to realize though, is that today’s children lack self-respect and self-confidence.The reasons are that parents are only educating their children on how to take multiple-choice tests and how to study well, but parents are not teachi ng them the most important skills: they need to be confident, happy and clever.Parents can achieve this by teaching practical skills like cooki ng, sewing and doing other housework.Teaching a child to cook will improve many of the skills that h e will need later in life. Cooking demands patience and time. It is an enjoyable but difficult experience. A good cook always t ries to improve his cooking, so he will learn to work hard and gradually finish his job successfully. His result, a well-cooked dinner, will give him much satisfaction and a lot of con fidence. These activities are not only teaching a child to work, but rather to think, and to use his mind. And that is more impo rtant.Section B (10 marks)Directions: Read the following passage. Answer the questionsaccording to the information given in the passage.At least 36 people have been killed and another 42 people ha ve been injured in a stampede that broke out during a New Ye ar Eve celebration in downtown , which may have been cause d by the crowd rushing to grab fake money thrown from the b alcony of a building.Survivors described the stampede as “horrible and hellish.”A woman said she covered two kids in front of her with her ar ms in the chaos. Her son followed her. Dirty shoe prints cover ed her son’s clothes when the 12-year-old boy came to safety.“The crowd was in a panic. We stood in the crowd, feeling squ eezed and almost out of breath,” a boy said. “Some yelled for help, but the noise was too loud.”Other survivors said police rushed to the scene and tried to pull out people who were stuck, but without much success. The local authorities said that one of the victims was a female student from the Shanghai-based . The student, surnamed Du from , was fatally injured during the incident and died later in the hospital.“The chaos lasted several minutes, and then some of the injur ed were seen being carried out of the crowd,” Yu said. Chinese President Xi Jinping on Thursday demanded an imm ediate investigation into the cause of the stampede and urged prevention of such incidents in the future.The city has set up a working team for rescue operations to d eal with the aftermath.Fatal incidents like this one were not rare in , the world's most populous country. Stampedes in the past were mainly due to safety measures.In September 2014, six students were killed in a stampede at a primary school in after a stairway was blocked. In January 2014, a mosque(清真寺) stampede killed 14 people and injured another 10 in the Ni ngxia Hui Autonomous Region. In 2004, a stampede on a brid ge in suburban killed 37 during a local lantern festival.81. How did the boy feel in the crowd?(No more than 12 words)(3 marks)82. What happened to the college student in the passage? (No more than 11 words)(2 marks)83. How many people were killed altogether in the stampedes mentioned in the passage?(No more than 2 words)(3 marks)84. What’s the news mainly about?(No more than 14 words)(3 marks)Section C (25 marks)Directions: Write an English composition according to the instr uctions given below.同龄压力(peer pressure)是青少年成长过程中经常遇到的问题。

An adult panda requires 12. 5 kilograms of bamboo,which it 16 (hungry)pulls out with its powerful paws,to satisfy its daily needs·Wild pandas live only in the high bamboo forests of Central China. These mountain forests are cool and wet一just as pandas like it. In the summer,they may climb as high as 4000 meters to help themselves to bamboo 17 (grow)at higher altitudes.Frequently,pandas 18 (see)eating in a relaxed sitting position,with their back legs stretched out before them. 19 they may appear inactive,they are in fact skilled tree-climbers and efficient swimmers.Giant pandas are unsociable.They have a highly developed sense of smell that males use 20 (avoid)each other and to find females for mating in the spring·After a five-month pregnancy,a female gives birth 21 a cub. The blind baby pandas weigh only 142 grams and cannot crawl(爬行)22 they reach three months of age·23 are born white,and develop their much loved colouring later.There are only about 1000 giant pandas left in 24 wild,with perhaps another 100 in zoos. Because they are so rare,much of 25 we know about pandas comes from studying these zoo animals.第一节阅读理解(共20小题;每小题2分,满分40分)AIs it possible that the sinking of the Titanic was caused by a ghost? A lot of the story below is true... but did it really happen quite like this?Our story begins not in the icy cold waters of the North Atlantic,but rather thousands of miles away in Egypt. It is here,perhaps,that we can find the start of the mystery(谜)of the Titanic,in the year 1910,in the great city of Cairo.One day,a famous professor of Egyptian history called Douglas Murray was staying in Cairo,when he was contacted by an American adventurer.The American had something unusual to offer Murray,something that was certain to thrill him:a beautiful ancient Egyptian mummy case,containing the mummy of an Egyptian queen.It was over 3000 years old,but in beautiful condition一gold,with bright paintings on it. Murray was delighted with both the object and the asking-price·He gave the man a cheque immediately.The cheque was never cashed. That evening the American adventurer died. For his part,Murray arranged to have the treasure sent back to Britain·However,it was not long before he learnt more about the beautiful mummy case:On the walls of the tomb in which it had been discovered,there were messages which warned of terrible consequences to anyone who broke into the tomb.Murray was disbelieving of these warnings until a few days later,when a gun he was holding exploded in his hand,shattering his arm. The arm had to be cut off.After the accident,Murray decided to return to his homeland.On the return journey,two of his companions died mysteriously,and two servants who had handled the mummy also passed away.The now-terrified Murray decided he would get rid of the cursed case as soon as he arrived in London.A lady he knew named Janet Jones said she would like it,so he gave it to her.Shortly afterwards,Jones' mother died,and she herself caught a strange disease. She tried returning the mummy,but naturally Murray refused it. In the end,it was presented to the British Museum.Even in the museum,the mummy apparently continued to cause strange events.A museumphotographer died shortly after taking pictures of the new exhibit;and a manager also died for no apparent reason. In the end,the British Museum decided to get rid of the mummy too.They sold it to a collector in New York.At the start of April 1912,arrangements for the transfer were complete,and the mummy began the journey to its new home.But the New Yorker never received the mummy or its case.For when the Titanic sank,one of the objects in its strong-room Was the mummy case·Or so they say·26.From the passage,we know Professor Murray_.A. was a famous American adventurerB .used to work for the British MuseumC .was a British professor of Egyptian historyD .didn't believe the mummy really brought bad fortune27 .In Paragraph 5,the underlined word“cursed”is closest in meaning to_.A. forgottenB. uncommonC. expensiveD. unlucky28.In what order did the following events occur?a. The case was given to the British Museum.b .Janet Jones caught a mysterious illness.c .Murray's arm was cut off.d. The mummy case was sold to an American.e .A man who took a picture of the case died.f. Warnings were written on the tomb,s walls.A. f, c,b,a,e,d B .c,f, b,a,e,dC, d,f, b,c,a,e D. f, a,c,b,e,d29.According to the passage,where is the Egyptian mummy now?A. At the British Museum. B.In New York. C. In Egypt. D. Under the sea.30.What is the main purpose of this passage?A. To entertain readers with a story of mystery.B .To introduce an important historical event to readers.C .To warn readers about the dangers of mummies' curses.D .To inform readers about the true cause of the Titanic's sinking.BAmy didn't have a little finger.It bothered James at first,but she seemed almost proud of it:she would refuse to use her five-fingered hand to hold his or move stray hairs from her eyes.She would always use her left hand,twisted and shocking.But that was only at the beginning of their relationship. After six months the missing digit became something like a comfort to James一he’d notice its absence in his hand and feel loved.It was something he couldn't explain to anyone else,and that made him love the missing finger even more.It was a secret between them both.There was,however,a certain thing James couldn't ask about. He wasn't sure how she lost her finger. It was the only unspeakable topic in the relationship·It didn't bother him very much.He wasn't a curious person. He'd occasionally slip and begin to ask,but mostly caught himself. When he didn't,she'd get quiet in company or angry in private.He'd let her storm away and wait for the broken comb of her hand to run through his hair in apology.They broke up over a mistake.His mistake.Amy started an argument over who should dothe dishes,and he lost despite his best effort to point out the number of hours he worked. In his anger,he stabbed a fork into the wall. Amy didn't say anything;she didn't even look upset,just confused. When he pulled the fork out,two prongs(叉齿)stayed in the wall,so he threw it into the trash.She was still staring,and he felt awkward and ashamed. He told her the prongs were in the wall,and the fork was now useless.What good would a two-pronged fork be for anyone?There wasn't any talking after that. She simply packed a backpack and went to her mother's.The next day Amy's brother and father came by to collect the rest of her clothing and books.Neither of them looked mad,though James couldn't figure out if they were truly uninterested or if silent anger was a family characteristic.He painted over the marks on the kitchen wall a week later,but left the prongs in the wall.He fished the fork out of the trash and kept it in the silverware drawer,underneath the utensil tray.He'd take it out occasionally.Running his finger into the rough gap of the missing pieces,he'd try to feel what wasn't there anymore.31 .Which of Amy’s fingers was missing?A. The middle finger of her left hand.B.The little finger of her left hand.C. The little finger of her right hand.D.The middle finger of her right hand.32.The underlined word“It" in Paragraph 3 refers to_.A. Amy's missing fingerB. how Amy lost her fingerC .Amy's attitude towards her handD.why Amy never talked about her hand33.What caused Amy to leave James?A. Amy was afraid of James' extreme anger.B .James repeatedly refused to wash the dishes.C .Amy felt James disrespected her disability.D .James continually talked about her missing finger.34 .When Amy,s father came to collect her things,he_·A .did not say very much to JamesB .did not know what the fight was aboutC .was clearly very upset and angry with JamesD .asked his daughter to stay with her mother35.To Amy,the broken fork symbolized_.A. their broken relationship B.her damaged handC .a problem that could be solved D.the way she lost her fingerCSpeed reading is a necessary and vital skill in the Internet age.We skim over articles,e-mails and tweets to try to grasp key words and the essential meaning of the text. With so much information available through our electronic devices,it would be impossible to get through everything if we read word by word,line by line.But a new trend calls on people to unplug and enjoy reading slowly,one which claims to have benefits beyond intellectual stimulation.A recent story from The Wall Street Journal reported on a book club in Wellington,New Zealand,where members meet in a cafe and turn off their smartphones.They sink into comfortable chairs and read in silence for an hour.Unlike typical book clubs,the point of the slow reading club isn't to exchange ideas about certain books,but to get away from electronic devices and read in a quiet,relaxed environment.According to the story,the Wellington book club is just one example of a movement started by book lovers who miss the traditional way of reading.Traditional readers,like Maura Kelly,say a regular reading habit sharpens the mind,improves concentration,reduces stress levels and deepens the ability to understand others.Some of these benefits have been backed up by science.For example,a study of 300 elderly people published by the journal Neurology last year showed that mature people who take part in activities that use their brain,such as reading,suffer less memory loss as they get older. Another study published last year in Science showed that reading novels helps people understand others' mental states and beliefs一a key skill in building relationships.Yet technology has made us less careful readers.Computer and phone screens have changed our reading patterns from the top-to-bottom,left-to-right reading order we traditionally used,to a wild skimming and skipping pattern as we hunt for important words and information.Reading text online that has many links to other web pages also leads to weaker comprehension than reading plain text. The Internet may have made us stupider,says British journalist Patrick Kingsley,only half joking.Because of the Internet,he claims we have become very good at collecting a wide range of factual tidbits,but we are also gradually forgetting how to sit back,think and relate all these facts to each other.36.Speed reading is a necessary and vital skill in the Internet age because people_·A .have to grasp the meaning fasterB .have much more information to readC .no longer read word by word,line by lineD .must use their smartphones more frequently37.Members of the Wellington book club are expected to_·A .read peacefully for an hourB .make coffee for the other membersC .regularly swap ideas about books D.turn off their smartphones for recharging 38.According to the Neurology study,who is most likely to suffer memory loss?A. A 65-year-old man who rarely reads.B .A 79-year-old woman who reads regularly·C .A 17-year-old middle school student who seldom reads.D .A healthy 24-year-old university graduate who often plays games·39.Kingsley believes that the Internet_.A .has lowered people's overall intelligence levelsB .has reduced people's ability to analyse informationC .has provided people with too much useless knowledgeD .has stopped people from doing important and useful work40.The last paragraph is written to_.A .explain the secrets of others' mindsB .urge people to read as slowly as possibleC .encourage people to read more about scienceD .describe the problems caused by electronic readingDStockholm's street magazine sellers no longer only take cash一they now take cards too.In the most cashless society on the planet,Swedish street magazine sellers have been equipped with portable card readers to accept credit card payments.“More and more sellers were telling us that people want ed our magazine but weren't carrying cash,”says Pia Stolt,the magazine's publisher.' "So with the help of a local computer company,we came up with a way to accept payment electronically.“We didn't know how it would turn out,or whether people would be unwilling to give their credit card information to a stranger on the street,”says Stolt,“but the results have been great一sales are up 59%.“Swedes are pretty trusting and we're used to taking up new technology so this was the perfect solution,”adds Stolt.“The cashless society campaign we're seeing in Sweden is definitely a good move as far as we are concerned一it's unstoppable.”Banks and stores invested heavily in card payment systems in the 1990s and now local consumers are using them in huge numbers.Today,four out of five purchases are made electronically in Sweden and. going totally cash-free is the next step.Sweden's public transport system has already been cashless for several years,after local public transport workers complained that handling cash had become dangerous.“Bus drivers were getting attacked for their money so Sweden banned cash on public transport,”says Am Arvidsson,the president of Cashless,an organisation supporting the move to a cash-free society.“There were also a number of bank robberies,so four years ago,the banks began to move away from cash.Now,all of Sweden's big banks operate cash free wherever possible,and the number of bank robberies is at a 30-year low.”There is,however,concern about how well Sweden's 1.8 million pensioners一out of a total population,of 10 million一will adapt.“A lot of elderly people feel excluded,”says Johanna Hall6n of the Swedish National Pensioners' Organisation.“Only 50%of older people use cash cards regularly and 7%never use cash cards.So we want the government to take things slowly.”The digital payment revolution is also a challenge for tourists,who need pre-paid tickets or a Swedish mobile to catch a bus in the capital.“There's a worry about crime and theft as well,”says Arvidsson.“Figures show that computer-related credit card crime has almost doubled in the last decade.”41.Why has the change to cashless selling been so successful in Sweden according to Stolt?A. Paying by cards costs less and is much quicker.B .Selling electronically is more convenient and safer.C .Swedish people are trusting and they welcome new technology·D. Swedish people are more willing to buy from street sellers.42.The demand for a cashless public transport system first came from_.A. transport companies to reduce their costs B .banks so they could increase their profitsC .transport workers to protect their safetyD .the government to improve transport times 43.Which of the following about Sweden is true according to the passage?A. No new banknotes will be produced in the future.B .It is the first country to have cash-free buses.C .Local people don't feel comfortable carrying cash.D .There has been a huge reduction in bank robberies.44 .Why does Johanna Hallen think the cashless society should be introduced slowly?A .She worries that computer-related crime will increase.B .She is concerned about the inconvenience to foreign travellers.C .She believes that it's not easy for older people to get used to it.D .She feels it is everyone's right to be able to use cash if they wish.45 .What information is most likely to follow the last paragraph?A. The difficulties people face in a cashless society.B .Some benefits a cashless society will bring to banks.C .The reasons for the change in customers' attitudes to cards.D .Some possible solutions to the problems of a cashless society.【写作要求】只能使用5个句子表达全部的内容。

Since it's equipped with a camera, it can keep an eye on your home while you're away. It's like a smart assistant that goes wherever you do, rolling into your bedroom to ring your wake-up alarm, rolling to the kitchen to turn on the toaster and giving you the weather report as you brush your teeth.The Insoles to Pick Up Your PactAny runner knows the right shoes are key to your speed. But Nurvv insoles promise more than mere cushioning. The insoles transmit data to a coaching app, which offers information on your technique and performance. It measures your foot strike and assesses your injury risk. The app then generates personalized workouts to set targets and help you beat your best speeds. Half marathon, here you come!The No-Studio-Needed Yoga ClassCan't keep up your commitment to a yoga studio membership? The Yoganotch personal yoga assistant lets you drop into a virtual class any time you want. Follow along with a set series while 3-D sensors tell you whether you need to straighten your legs a bit more. The idea it that it improves your form while reducing the risk of injury.The Dau-Enhanced GrillWhile working by sight, smell and feel, a chef may appreciate Weber's new Smart Grilling Hub. It can monitor your pork and turkey while an app gives advice about cooking technique and safe temperatures.1. What can the Sweet Little Rolling Robot do?A. Feed your pets.B. Hay tennis with you.C. Take you wherever you want.D. Assist you to do your housework.2. Which of the following is suitable for a runner?A. Ballie.B. Nurvv.C. Yoganotch.D. Smart Grilling Hub.3. What do we know about the Weber’s invention?A. It uses virtual reality.B. It is convenient for cooking.C. It makes meals for you automatically.D. It helps you do well in your yoga exercises.BIf there is no difference in general intelligence between boys and girls, what can explain girls’ poor performance in science and math?It hasbeen suggested that girls do not take math courses, not because they are difficult, but for social reasons. Girls do not want to be in open competition with boys because they are afraid to appear less feminine (女性的) and attractive (有魅力的).However, there are still more high-achieving boys than girls when taking math exams. This difference appears to be worldwide. Biological explanations have been offered for this, but there are other explanations too.Perhaps the difference which comes out during the teenage years has its roots in much earlier experiences. From their first days in kindergarten, boys are encouraged to work on their own and to complete tasks. Facts show that outstanding mathematicians and scientists have not had teachers who gave answers.Besides, there can be little doubt that teachers of math and science expect their boy students to do better at these subjects than their girl students. They even appear to encourage the difference between boys and girls. They spend more time with the boy students, giving them more time to answer questions and working harder to get correct answers from them. They are more likely to call on boys for answers and to allow them to take the lead in classroom discussion. They also praise boys more frequently. All of this seems to encourage boys to work harder in science and math and to give them confidence that they are able to succeed.Such a way of teaching is not likely to encourage girls to take many math and science courses, nor is it likely to support girls who do. When it comes to these subjects it seems certain that school widens the difference between boys and girls.4. Why does the author raise a question in paragraph 1?A. To find differences between boys and girls.B. To explain the poor performance of girls.C. To ask readers a question.D. To introduce the topic.5. The text mainly discusses ________ reasons for the difference between boys and girls in scientific achievements.A. biologicalB. personalC. socialD. historical6. What does the text say about great mathematicians?A. Their teachers did not offer answers to them.B. They started learning math at an earlier age.C. They showed mathematical abilities in their teenage years.D. Their success resulted from their strong interest in math.7. The author would probably agree that ________.A. boys and girls learn in the same wayB. boys and girls are equal in general intelligenceC. girls are more confident in themselves than beforeD. girls should take fewer science courses than boysCAs we all know, there are plenty of different parks to visit in theUK. All theme parks inBritainhave cafes, restaurants, picnic areas and gift shops, so you'll still have plenty to see and do when you and the kids have been on enough rides. There are usually smaller “funfair“ rides and games as well, so younger children won't get bored. Several theme parks also have other attractions next to them, e. g. water parks often open all year round, unlike the theme parks.Whenever you are inBritain, there's likely to be a theme park within one or two hours,drive, bus ride or train journey. Several theme parks even have accommodation(膳宿)so you can stay for a day or two if you want to make a trip into a short holiday.Prices forUKtheme parks vary considerably; some have an entrance price which allows you to go on all the rides, while in others you have to pay for every ride individually. It can also make a difference whether you go during peak time or not. For example, tickets always cost more during school holidays and weekends than they do during the weekdays.Theme parks always get very busy during the summer months, so if you don't like crowds ifs usually a goodidea to go earlier or later in the year!If you're thinking of visiting aUKtheme park, it's worth having a look for special offers on tickets. Products such as chocolate bars and cereals sometimes have " buy one get one free" offers on theme park tickets, so keep a look out in shops and supermarkets.8. This passage mainly talks about all the following EXCEPT.______.A. things to doB. prices for theme parksC. rules to obeyD. special offers9. If you go to the theme park during the weekdays, you'll probably.______.A. have to spend moreB. save some moneyC. win a big prizeD. get something free10. According to the passage, what should you do if you are tired of crowds in the theme park?A. Avoid the busiest months.B. Go earlier or later in the daytime.C. Choose one with few visitors.D. Go there when no one is in it.11. The best title for the text would be ______.A. What to Do in the Theme ParkB. Theme Parks in theUKC. Visiting the Theme ParkD. Introduction to Famous Theme ParksDThe connection between people and plants has long been the subject of scientific research. Recent studies have found positive effects. A study conductedin Youngstown,Ohio,for example, discovered that greener areas of the city experienced less crime. In another,employees were shown to be 15% more productive when their workplaces were decorated with houseplants.The engineers at the Massachusetts Instituteof Technology(MIT)have taken it a step further changing the actual composition of plants in order to get them to perform diverse,even unusual functions. These include plants that have sensors printed onto their leaves to show when they’re short of water and a plant that can detect harmful chemicals in groundwater."We’re thinking about how we can engineer plants to replace functions of the things that we use every day,"explained Michael Strano, a professor of chemical engineering at MIT.One of his latest projects has been to make plants glow(发光)in experiments using some common vegetables. Strano’s team found that they could create a faint light for three-and-a-half hours. The light,about one-thousandth of the amount needed to read by,is just a start. The technology, Strano said, could one day be used to light the rooms or even to turn trees into self-powered street lamps.In the future,the team hopes to develop a version of the technology that can be sprayed onto plant leaves in a one-off treatment that would last the plant’s lifetime. The engineers are also trying to develop an on and off"switch"where the glow would fade when exposed to daylight.Lighting accounts for about 7% of the total electricity consumed in the US. Since lighting is often far removed from the power source(电源)-such as the distance from a power plant to street lamps on a remote highway-a lot of energy is lost during transmission(传输).Glowing plants could reduce this distance and therefore help save energy.12. What is the first paragraph mainly about?A. A new study of different plants.B. A big fall in crime rates.C. Employees from various workplaces.D. Benefits from green plants.13. What is the function of the sensors printed on plant leaves by MIT engineer?A. To detect plants’ lack of waterB. To change compositions of plantsC. To make the life of plants longer.D. To test chemicals in plants.14. What can we expect of the glowing plants in the future?A. They will speed up energy production.B. They may transmit electricity to the home.C. They might help reduce energy consumption.D. They could take the place of power plants.15. Which of the following can be the best title for the text?A. Can we grow more glowing plants?B. How do we live with glowing plants?C. Could glowing plants replace lamps?D. How are glowing plants made pollution-free?第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

ASince the beginning of the year,smog has covered parts of North China.In January, Beijing saw only five days without smog.The rising PM2.5readings terrified many people,and some health experts said that whenever the smog gets serious,hospitals receive more patients suffering acute respiratory(呼吸系统)and heart diseases.Later,news of polluted underground water in some provinces s cared people who wondered whether the water they drink is safe.So the need to emphasize environmental protection while developing the economy is heard everywhere.Smog especially is a common concern.Like a popular online post said,air may be the only thing that is equal for everyone,despite your income or vocation.People with higher incomes are able to drink only bottled spring water and eat only organic food by paying higher prices,but they breathe the same air as everyone else.At a meeting on Monday,many Representatives have expressed their concerns about the air quality,too.One talked about his experience in Beijing.“After taking a taxi from the capital airport to my hotel,which took about an hour,I washed my nose and found the inside of my nose was black.We should ask ourselves this question: Why do we want to develop?It's for living a better life.Dirty air is definitely not a better life,"he said.China needs to develop its economy and invest(投资)in high-tech.Every Chinese wants a strong country.But without blue sky,clean water and safe food,the achievements in the economy will become meaningless.Space technologies are not tobe developed for building a base on Mars so that one day all human beings can migrate to the red planet because they have destroyed Earth.What the public wants is a strong and beautiful China.President Hu Jintao spoke at the18th Party Congress last November saying that great efforts must be made to promote ecological progress and build a beautiful China.The words have shown the central government's resolution to address the environment issue.26.The effect of smog doesn’t include.A.the rising of PM 2.5readings B.more people suffering diseasesC.the increase of people’s income D.patients increased in hospital27.Why smog has become a common concern?A.Because people have to pay higher prices.B.Because nobody can avoid it.C.Because we have to develop industry.D.Because a popular online-post discussed it.28.To make China stronger we have to develop economy,but.A.we have to sacrifice air as the price B.the dirty air is not what we want C.ecological progress can be ignored D.the smog is the only byproduct 29.The underlined word“they”in paragraph6refers to.A.human beings B.other plantsC.space technologies D.industrial development30.From the last two paragraphs we can infer that.A.high-tech can completely solve the problem of pollutionB.space technologies should be developed in a large scaleC.we can move to the Mars after the earth has been destroyedD.we must protect the environment while developing economyBWe’re so well educated–but we’re useless students who have lost the ability to do anything practical.The only thing we’ve mastered is consumption.Large numbers of students have entered higher education in the past10years, but despite being the most educated generation in history,it seems that we’ve grown increasingly ignorant when it comes to basic life skills.Looking back on my first couple of weeks of living in student halls,I consider myself lucky to still be alive.Unfamiliar to fresher’s,there are many hidden dangers in the dirty corners of students accommodation.I have survived a couple of serious boiling egg incidents and lots of cases of food–poisoning,probably from dirty kitchen counters.Although some of my clothes have fallen victim to ironing experimentation,I think I have now finally acquired all the domestic(居家的)skills I missed out in my modem education.In2006and2010,the charming educationist Sir Ken Robinson gave two very amusing talks in which he discussed the importance of creativity in education.Robinson’s main viewpoint is that our current education system dislocates people from their natural talents.I would like to go a step further and propose that besides our talents, the system takes away what used to be passed from generation to generation–a working knowledge of basic life skills.Today’s graduates may have earned themselves honor in history,law or economies, but when it comes to simple things like putting up a shelf to hold all their academic books,or fixing a hole in their on–trend clothes,they have to call for help from a professional handyman or tailor.Since the invention of the internet,it has never been easier for people to access information,but our highly specialized education has made us more one–sided than ever.I suggest that we start with the immediate reintroduction of some of the most vital aspects of“domestic science”education,before the current lack leads to serious accidents in student halls.31.People call us useless students for the reason that.A.what we’ve learned is beyond consumptionB.we are educated generationC.we’ve entered higher educationD.our living skills are so poor32.Which is NOT the incidents the writer had during the first few weeks in student hal ls?A.He was seriously burnt by boiled eggs.B.He was accidentally poisoned by food.C.He damaged his clothes while ironing.D.He was severely beaten by freshers.33.According to Robinson’s opinion,our current education.A.focuses on the importance if creativityB.dislocates people from their natural talentsC.has equipped students with basic life skillsD.has followed the tradition properly34.Why are the graduates poor at basic life skills?A.Because they are not interested in them.B.Because they have little relevant practice.C.Because they are affected by internet.D.Because they are easy to be one-sided.35.The main purpose of writing the passage is that.A.there is no need to introduce“domestic science”B.it’s time we did something to current educationC.more attention should be paid to natural scienceD.accidents should be prevented in student hallsCThe National Park Service in the United States will mark its one hundredth anniversary in2016.As it nears its second century,the Park Service plans to increase its educational programs for students and teachers.The plans include transportation support for one hundred thousand students each year to visit national parks to learn about nature and history.Yellowstone is believed to have been the world's first national park when it was established in1872.Otherstudents will get a chance to see parks in faraway places through Skype and other online programs.The National Park Service also works with partners to provide education.One of its partners is a nonprofit organization called NatureBridge.NatureBridge is celebrating its fortieth anniversary and says one million young people have taken part in its programs.The organization works with students from kindergarten through twelfth grade and uses national parks as its classrooms.It provides field science programs at Yosemite National Park and four other locations in California and the northwestern state of Washington.Now,NatureBridge is launching an East Coast center with a four-million-dollar grant from Google.The program will begin in April at the Prince William Forest Park in Virginia.Students stay for three to five days in NatureBridge programs.The activities are aimed at developing their science skills.For example,they learn about different soils and study water quality under a microscope.Jason Morris is executive vice president of NatureBridge.He says when they are not sleeping,eating or in a laboratory,the students spend their time outdoors.Julia Washburn is associate director of education and interpretation for the National Park Service.She says in a time of budget cuts,the agency has to find ways to still meet its goals.And one of the most important services that the Park Service provides every day is nature interpretation.36.Which of the following descriptions about NatureBridge is NOT correct?A.It’s an organization working together with National Park Service to provide education.B.Some of the activities held by NatureBridge are financially supported by Google. C.Students from kindergarten to college can sign up for the organization’s activities.D.It’s going to cut down budget for the activities because of economic hard times. 38.In which national park will the program by East Coast centre start? A.Yellowstone National Park.B.Prince William Forest Park.C.Yosemite National Park.D.Not mentioned in the passage.37.What’s the main idea of the passage?National parks are used as outdoor classrooms for students.Students are called on to be members of NatureBridge.C.Some famous national parks in US are attractive to students.D.Park rangers make visiting parks much more interesting.39.Which of the following is the correct structure of the whole passage? (Para=paragraph)A.B.C.D.40.What will be further talked about after the last paragraph?A.Ways to raise money.B.Budget cuts.C.Nature interpretation.D.Better services.DIf you want to help children develop language and speech skills,UCLA researchers say,listening to what they have to say is just as important as talking to them.The effect of a conversation between a child and an adult is about six times as great as the effect of adult speech input alone,the researchers found.“Adults speaking to children helps language develop,but what matters much more is the interaction,”said the study’s lead author,Frederick Zimmerman,an associate professor in the School of Public Health at the University of California,Los Angeles. The researchers also found that TV viewing didn’t have much of an effect—positively or negatively—as long as it wash’t displacing conversations between an adult and a child.The UCLA study included275families with children between2months and48months old.They represented a variety of incomes and education.The researchers found that, in an average day,children hear about13,000spoken words from adults and participated in about400adult child conversations a day.Assessed separately,factors positively associated with language development included each additional100conversations a day and each1,000word increase in the number of words spoken by adults and heard by children.When looked at alone,TV was negatively associated with language development.But,when the three factors were analyzed together,the only one that stood out was conversation between adults and children.“The more a child speaks and interacts with an adult,the better idea a parent has about where the child is,”Zimmerman said.“Although it’s mostly done unconsciously,parents will provide feedback and correct mistakes.They’ll also tailor their speech to the child.Parents can give a child words by talking to them about what they’re doing,such as,‘I’m putting on your pajamas now’.But give your child the opportunity to talk,hopefully without the rest of the noise in the environment,”she added.“If parents can carve out some conversation time—maybeat bath time or at dinner time—that’s a wonderful thing.”41.The researchers also found that TV viewing________.A.could have a positive effect on a child’s language developmentB.had a little effect on a child’s language developmentC.affected a child’s language development more negatively than positivelyD.affected a child’s language development both negatively and positively 42.Frederick Zimmerman would probably agree that________.A.parents should let their children talk most of the timeB.children should watch TV programs selectivelyC.the conversation between parents and children should be two wayD.it’s no good for parents to correct their children’s mistakes when they are speaking43.We can conclude from the last paragraph that________.A.parents should let a child repeat what he or she saysB.bath time or dinner time is the best chance for parents to talk to a childC.parent child conversation can be carried out at any proper timeD.parents should leave a child talking alone44.What would be the best title for the passage?A.Talk with kids,not at themB.Let your children voice their own opinionsC.How to develop a child’s language abilityD.The importance of early child language development45.The underlined word“tailor”in the last paragraph can be best replaced by ________.A.controlB.improveC.passD.adjust第二节信息匹配(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)阅读下列应用文及相关信息,并按照要求匹配信息。
