He was one of the best string instrument players in our town.Dad loved to play the mandolin for his 36 . He knew we enjoyed singing, and hearing him play. He was like that. If he could give pleasure to others, he would, 37 to his family. He was always devoting his time and 38 to his family and trying to make sure that his family had enough in their life.Unfortunately, a(n) 39 happened to him when he worked at Todd Steel. On that particular day, Dad got the third finger of his left hand crushed(压坏) between two pieces of steel. He didn’t lose enough of the finger to stop him 40 anything, but it did 41 his ability to play the mandolin.After the accident, Dad was 42 to play the mandolin. He felt that he could not play as well as he had before the accident. When I came home on leave and asked him to play, he would make excuses for why he couldn’t play. But finally, he wouldbe 43 to play and he would say “Since the accident to this finger I can’t play as well, so generally I’m not willing to play”. For the family it didn’t make any difference that Dad couldn’t play as well as before. We were just 44 that he would play. When he played the old mandolin, it would carry us back to a cheerful and happy time in our lives.In August of 1993, my father came down with lung cancer.

It’s clear 50 voluntary activities have attracted a number of students.Voluntary activities benefit students in three ways. Firstly, such activities provide volunteers with a rich life experience, thus making their lives 51 meaningful. Secondly, through voluntary activities, volunteers learn that they are also helping themselves 52 helping others. 53 , volunteers learn that each individual action counts.However, we should remember that voluntary work requires time and effort. 54 we should keep the balance between such work and our study. Besides, many voluntary activities take place in faraway 55 dangerous areas. So personal safety may also be considered before we leave. On the whole, voluntary activities bring us more benefits than risks.Part Ш Reading Comprehension (30 marks)Directions: Read the following three passages.

But for international students who arrive in America for college, spring break is a big challenge. Here are several ways international students can spend spring break in the United States.Stay on campusHoney Lee from Egypt will remain on campus this spring break because she saysshe has nowhere else to go. “A lot of international students stay in the dorms over breaks, but it can still get lonely,” she says.Some schools have programming for international students over breaks. Vanderbilt University organized a spring break trip for international students to the nearby mountains. Some schools also give away movie passes to international students staying on campus for the break.Reconnect with high school friendsChaudhury from India suggests international students look for and find others from their high school that also chose to study in this country. “I certainly get somewhat jealous and lonely when I hear of my American friends going back home so often,” he says.“Seeing my high school friends isn’t like being at home, butit’s a good substitute(代替者).”Visit the homes of friends or familyBreaks can give international students a chance to experience American family life.Last year Lizzie Ballard from the United Kingdom visited the home of a friend in southern California over Th anksgiving and spent Christmas with another friend’s family in Fort Wayne, Ind. “I’m never going to get the chance to do Thanksgiving or have an American Christmas again,” she says.“It’s nice to spend time with a family and see what real life is like here.”Be a touristCarlsen from Japan suggests international students make use of the break time to explore this country. “That experience is very fun and enriching,” he says.

War, weather, age, traffic and pollution all damage these famous places. Looking after these places often costs more than one country can afford.In the early 1970s, world governments decided that if they joined together, they would be able to preserve our history. If every country paid some money, they said, it would be possible to look after important historic places. Also, if they discovered that a monument had been damaged by people, they would have money forrepairs. For these reasons, countries around the world united to form the World Heritage Organization in 1972. Today, the organization helps to preserve and repair the most important places from our history.However, one of the biggest problems for historic places is vandalism. People sometimes enter the sites and destroy or damage the buildings. At some sites, such as Stonehenge in England, governments have built high walls to protect the site from vandals(故意破坏者).There are many different ideas about how to solve the problem of vandalism. Some experts say that if guards(保安人员) patrolled(巡逻) the sites, vandals would not be able to get in. Some experts say that if they fixed more television cameras, they would not need so many guards. Other experts say that the best solution is education. If people learned to respect history, they would not destroy or damage it. They would also want to spend money looking after old places. For this reason, the World Heritage Organization helps to spread information about the value of historic sites. 61. According to this passage, ______ is NOT mentioned in Paragraph 1 for the reasonswhy the famous places are damaged?A. people’s awarenessB. pollutionC. war and climateD. traffic62. Which of the following shows us the action of vandalism?A. Governments build high fences to protect the site from vandals.B. Guards patrolled the sites and they fixed more television cameras.C. People enter the sites and cause damage to the buildings.D. They collect as much money as they can to preserve the buildings.63. What’s the best way to solve the biggest problem of preserving our history?A. Every country spends more money looking after the historic places.B. All the countries unite to repair the historic sites.C. Too many guards are needed to prevent vandals getting in.D. To make people know more about the value of historic sites.64. From this passage we learn that the World Heritage Organization ______.A. was founded in 1970B. was founded only to repair the historic placesC. helps to preserve our historyD. offers people information about vandalism65. Where is this passage most likely to have been taken from?A. A news report.B. A social magazin e.C. An advertisement.D. A travel diary.COne Friday night five teenage girls at Danville High School became five young adults, and they did so with their class. I think you’d like to know the story.That night, in a crowded gym, just before the start of the varsity game (校队比赛), the five girls, who were members of the Danville High School basketball team, four of them starters, weren’t in uniform to pl ay. They were there to explain why they were kicked off the team.While school had been out for the Christmas and New Year’s holidays, the girlshad gone to a party with several of their friends. It was New Year’s Eve. There was alcohol(酒) there. And the five girls all drank some.Coach Tammy Rainville has a zero-tolerance rule on drugs and alcohol for the members of her team. Every kid who plays for her knows that rule. So when classes began after the holidays, rumors(谣言) about the five girls began spreading quickly. The five girls got together and decided to go to their coach with the full story. The coach said she couldn’t back down on her rule. The players agreed. That Friday night in the gym was part of their public support of the coach’s decision. At last one of them, Shelly, said: “We hope you will understand that we are not bad kids. We made a mistake… What we did was not worth it. We hope this event will make everyone open their eyes and realize that there is a big drug and alcohol problem in our community. And if you work with us to try to solve this problem, you will help us feel that we haven’t been thrown off our basketball team for nothing.” The five girls left the gym and a great cheer went up from the crowd.The Danville High School girls’ ba sketball team may not win another game this year. But they’ve learned something about personal responsibility, the effect of one’s actions on others, and honesty that will serve them well throughout life.66. The five girls were kicked off the basketball team because ______.A. they made a mistake at schoolB. they didn’t do well in the varsity gameC. they drank alcohol at the New Year’s partyD. they spread rumors about basketball games67.

Fill in the numbered blanks by using the information from the passage.Write NO MORE THAN THREE WORDS for each answer.Many people, especially college students, have had a very ideal plan about theirlife since the start of high school. But what happens when your life plan goes wrong?Here are some suggestions to help you change your plan.Firstly, a serious change in plans often comes as a surprise. However, one simplesolution exists to solve it. Take a step back. Stepping back could mean anythingfrom going to a quiet place that you are familiar with or spending a night out withyour best friends. These kinds of activities will help you clear your head and keepyou outside of the serious situation. Remember, anxious thoughts and a wanderingmind will be your worst enemy.Secondly, remember to be realistic. When deciding your next steps, try to findout what you can control and what you cannot. Spend more time planning the thingsthat you can control and leave out the things that cannot be controlled in your newplans.Thirdly, there are a lot of resources that can be used to help you change yourplans. Your professors, family members, friends, coaches, former teachers,counselors, advisors, etc … will help you resolve your situation. Go to ask themfor some advice.Of course, a change in your plan will make you change your schedule. Situationslike this will give you a perfect opportunity to experiment with interests what youwere previously unable to explore. Take every opportunity as it comes and try toexplore something new.Lastly, do what feels right and comfortable to you. If you feel that a suggestionto change your plans will be beneficial, go for it! If you feel that something isnot practical, don’t do it! Remember to follow your gut(直觉).Always remember, there are benefits that come out of any situation. If you lookat life like a long, winding road, you never know where a detour(迂回路) might leadyou. So sometimes a change is necessary. Be brave to face it!Title: Suggestions about how to 71I. 72 : your life plan going wrongII.

Answer the questions according to the information given in the passage.Newspaper reporters are standing along the red carpet that is waiting for guests of the Second Chance Dance. Unfortunately, the girl who created it can’t be there to see what she created.Felicia Ann Armstrong died at home in Jeffersontown in August last year, following health problems that began when she was born. She was only 19 years old. Felicia once made it to her junior prom(中学正式舞会) at North Bullitt High School despite health problems that made it difficult for her to eat. She wore a beautiful dress that hit above the knee, and one of her best friends accompanied her as her date. Felicia had a great time at the dance, and she wanted other kids with health problems to have a chance to experience that.During one of her last stays at Kosair Children’s Hospital, she came up with the idea for the Second Chance Dance, a dance for teenagers who have missed the prom because of serious medical illness. She approached officials of Kosai r Children’s Hospital and Norton Healthcare with her idea and what made her excited was that she got an immediate yes from the officials. She told them, “One big thing that’s going to be really different is that I want everybody to get a crown. Not just a ‘king’ and ‘queen’.Her dream has become a reality today, when the Children’s Hospital Foundation and BraveHearts sponsor(主办) the dance in her honor at The Henry Clay downtown. Many people value it very much and tell the reporters that they hope the Second Chance Dance will turn into something bigger — perhaps become an annual event or even something other cities pick up on.81.

On the first swing (挥杆), which was pretty much my dad holding Sam’s hands around the bat and my dad swinging, he—or they—hit the ball. The kids on the other team did something 45 then. They overthrew the ball to 46 him. Three times. Sam had hit his first and only home run(全垒打).

Two dog walkers passed by and we heard one of them say, “Never seen that dog around here before.”We looked down the hill and saw an old black dog stumbling(蹒跚) painfully up the hill. We bent down, talked gently to the dog and patted it. I checked and there was a collar. There was a phone number on the collar, but no one answered.The dog was painfully thin. It didn’t have many teeth left and, well, it just seemed done.Julie ran home to get some of our dog’s food while I tried to encourage the dog to come along with me. Julie got home and back again when I was only half way there. So, we sat down on the sidewalk while our new friend made short work of the food.Eventually we got her home. We gave her a blanket, more food, kept her warm and wondered what to do next.After trying for many times we got a response from the number. A lady came around with a bunch of flowers for us. She explained that Tara had been her father’s dog. She was very old and should probably be put to sleep, but the lady just couldn’t bring herself to do it. So, Tara was safely returned home.Here is the truth of the story:Actually Julie and I were out that morning because I was leaving. She was trying to persuade me to c ome back, but I wasn’t hearing anything that made that sound likely.I was about to turn and go when an old, worn out dog walked between us and collapsed. Suddenly we had something more important than our problem to worry about. There was a creature in need right before us and we had to work together to help it.We did help it. And here am I writing the story in my own home, in my own family.In the song “Love Is Not a Fight” Warren Barfield talks about marriage. At one point he sings, “And if we try to leave, may God send angels to guard the door.”湖南省五市十校2014届高三第一次联合检测试卷英语第6 页共11 页Sometimes angels come disguised (伪装) as dogs. （380 words）61.

Which of the following is the best title for the passage?A. A Helpful Couple.B. An Angel Dog.C. Saving the Dog.D. A Famous Song.CYou’re jogging at a steady pace, enjoying your favorite music through your headphones. Your breath is short and your heart is pumping. Your legs feel like they couldn’t carry you any faster.And then you hear the groan of a zombie over your right shoulder. You must run or be eaten.The zombie apocalypse(大灾难) isn’t upon you. You’re just taking part in the latest fitness craze—Smartphone apps that make a fun and interactive game out of your daily workout.Software developers are taking advantage of Smartphone’s advanced technology—GPS, accelerometers (加速度计), MP3 players—to create “immersive”fitness games that appeal to both desperate and reluctant exercises.It’s part of an overall trend in the fitness industry toward making your daily workout “a fun experience rather than something you have to do,” said Jessica Matthews, an exercise physiologist for the American Council on Exercise.“We are attempting more “play” opportunities as opposed to working out, basically getting people to move and having fun while they are doing it,” Matthews said.One popular fitness game app, Zombies, Run! places you in the role of a supplies runner for a walled community trying to survive against the walking dead.During your run, the game’s surprising complex story unfolds through your headphones. You “pick up” supplies for the community as you jog along. At certain intervals, you’re warned that zombies are nearby, and if you don’t pick up the pace, you’ll have to pitch(掷) some supplies to keep from being caught.The game doesn’t end once your jog is over. After your workout, you can use the supplies you picked up during your running to fortify your community. The GPS statistics from your run are uploaded automatically to the game’s website, so you can review your average speed and the estimated calories you burned.湖南省五市十校2014届高三第一次联合检测试卷英语第7 页共11 页Teemo, Nexercise and Fitocracy all allow you to post your latest workout to share with friends. Some games have you work with friends to reach a common goal—completing a relay race, for example—while others encourage competition.“That’s another big area, having that social component,”Matthews said, “Having social support of some kind is a critical factor in adhering to an exercise program. For some people, having that friendly competition or the feeling of being on a team can help them stay motivated.”（384 words）66. Smartphone’s advanced technology is used to _______.A. steady the jogger’s paceB. make exercisers’ hearts pumpC. control the rate of workoutD. create a virtual health game67. The general tendency in the fitness industry is to_______.A. exercise while listening to musicB. do sports and play games at the same timeC. make your daily exercises funny and interestingD. show the average speed and the calories immediately68. Which of the following statements is not true about Zombies, Run!?A. The simple story gradually develops during your jogB. You collect supplies for the community on your wayC. You are sometimes warned that zombies are aroundD. You act as a supplies runner and try to fight against the zombies69. The underlined word “walking dead” in Paragraph 7 most probably refers to ______A. friendsB. supply runnersC. zombiesD. team members70. Which is the best title of the passage?A. Smartphone Apps, Fun WorkoutsB. Favourite Music, Interesting JoggingC. Supplies Runner, Motivating CommunityD. Friendly Competition, Encouraging TeamPART FOUR WRITING（45 marks）SECTION A (10 marks)Directions: Read the following passage. Fill in the numbered blanks by using the information for the passage. Write NO MORE THAN 3 WORDS for each answer.Before throwing yourself into studying, you should make a study schedule. Creating and following a study schedule can help you concentrate, better retain course material, and manage your time in an effective way.To create a good schedule, first you should assess your current schedule because creating a healthy balance between your studies, social life and sleep is important. You can adjust your study schedule to fit your needs and learning style. For example, do you need to spare some time on weekend afternoons because you work nights the same days? Could you listen to an audio recording of a lecture on your MP3 player while sweating at the gym?It’s also important to list all the subjects you need to study. If you have a study guide or a textbook with review sections, use it to narrow down what you list. Once you have your list, rank湖南省五市十校2014届高三第一次联合检测试卷英语第8 页共11 页the subjects by how confident you feel about them. You can note them with least, moderately or mostly. By doing this, you can focus more time and energy on problem areas. And in the end, write down which subject you’re studying in each period. This will allow you to organize your textbooks and study materials ahead of time.Once the schedule is created, you must stick to it. There's no point in making a study schedule if you don't stick to it, but it can be hard to start. Try to get into the habit of looking at your calendar/planner on a regular, preferably daily basis. This will help keep you away from the "out of sight, out of mind" trap. Once you’ve established a routine, you may start mentally associating certain acts, such as the opening of a textbook or sitting down at a desk, with a study mode. In addition, you should avoid putting off work as much as possible. If you finish something ahead of schedule, go back and note which subjects you feel better about and which you still have questions on. By quickly getting to your studying mindset, you can more easily ignore distractions and focus on the material you are reviewing. Accordingly, you can adjust what you plan to study and review later on. （364 words）SECTION B （10 marks）Directions: Read the following passage. Answer the questions according to the information given in the passage and the required words limit. Write your answers on your answer sheet.For most of us, it is challenging to climb Mount Everest, the world’s tallest mountain. However, 80-year-old Yuichiro Miura is preparing to climb the 29,035 feet peak for the third time in 2013.Unlike others, his love for this great mountain began in 1970, when he became the first person to ski down the 8,000 meters. His amazing story was recorded in a documentary called “The Man Who Skied Down Everest”.湖南省五市十校2014届高三第一次联合检测试卷英语第9 页共11 页After that he seemed to have gotten a little busy with other challenges, and it was not until 2003 at the old age of 70, that he decided to revisit the Everest—this time, to climb up. Not only did he succeed, but he also broke the record for being the oldest person ever, to climb the mountain. However, just four years later, a 71-year-old fellow by the name of Katsusule Yanagisawa managed to displace him in the record books.Not one to give up, Yuichiro decided to go at it one more time at the age of 75. While he succeeded in getting to the peak, he did not break the record this time. That’s because just a day before he got there, a 76-year-old Nepalese man by the name of Min Bahadur Sherchan had managed to get to the top of the mountain. While Yuichiro says his third attempt has nothing to do with the record books, if he succeeds, that is where he will end up hopefully.What’s amazing about this determined man is that he suffers from and has undergone two operations for irregular heartbeat. So why does he continue taking on this risky adventure? Because he believes it to be the “anti-ageing” cure for all his illnesses.
