AWhen you’re on the go, your best friend and resource can be your phone. In the age of smart phones, apps are like guiding stars: They can point you in the right direction for a hotel, lis t expenses, send postcards, and much more. When used tog ether, these apps can be the basic travel tool, placing a wealt h of information at your fingertips no matter where you are on the planet. U.S. News Travel has picked the essential travel a pps, known for their utility and reliability. Best of all, they cost absolutely nothing.Trip ItYour Personal Travel AgentBe your own travel agent and plan every detail of your trip—from car rental to accommodating restaurants—with Trip It.

The Weather Free app informs you (in English) of the climate in various loc ations. It features the local weather, and other key factors thatwill inform your decision about what to wear before stepping outside.GobyYour Event GuruWhen you're in a foreign city, you sometimes look around and ask: Where are all the people? Goby has the answer. This ap p pinpoints the neighborhood hot spots (including museums, hotels, eateries, and more) in your neighborhood. But its true value comes in finding nearby events. You'll discover concerts , plays, and more right around the corner.1. What is the advantage of using travel apps picked by the U. S. News Travel?A. They can solve any problem you come across.B. They reduce your travel budget.C. They exercise your fingertips.D. They are reliable and free of charge.2. With the help of the travel apps used together, travelers ca n do the following things EXCEPT .A. rent a carB. decide what to wearC. look for a friend while travelingD. find the nearby museums3. Where are the readers likely to read the passage above?A. In a geography textbookB. In a scienc e and technology magazineC. On a popular websiteD. In a business rep ortBTim Richter and his wife, Linda, had taught for over 30 years near Buffalo, New York – he in computers, she in special edu cation. “Teaching means everything to us,” Tim would say. In April 1998, he learned he would need a heart operation. It wa s the kind of news that leads to some serious thinking about lif e’s purpose.Not long after the surgery, Tim saw a brochure describing Ima gination Library, a program started by Dolly Parton’s foundatio n (基金会) that mailed a book every month to children from birth to ag e five in the singer’s hometown of Sevier, Tennessee. “I thoug ht, maybe Linda and I could do something like this when we r etire,” Tim recalls. He placed the brochure on his desk, “as a r eminder.”Five years later, now retired and with that brochure still on thedesk, Tim clicked on . The program ha d been opened up to partners who could take advantage of b ook and postage discounts.The quality of the books was of great concern to the Richters. Rather than sign up online, they went to Dollywood for a look-see. “We didn’t want to give the children rubbish,” says Linda. The books – reviewed each year by teachers, literacy speciali sts and Dollywood board members – included classics such a s Ezra Jack Keats’s The Snowy Day and newer books like An na Dewdney’s Llama Llama series.Satisfied, the couple set up the Richter Family Foundation and got to work. Since 2004, they have shipped more than 12,200 books to preschoolers in their area. Megan Williams, a mot her of four, is more than grateful: “This program introduces us to books I’ve never heard of.”The Richters spend about ＄400 a month sending books to 2 00 children. “Some people sit there and wait to die,” says Tim.“Others get as busy as they can in the time they have left.”What did Tim want to do after learning about Imagination Libr ary?A. Give out brochures.B. Do something similar.C. Write books for childrenD. Retire from being a teacher.According to the text, Dollly Parton is .A. a well-known surgeonB. a mother of a four-year-oldC. a singer born in TennesseeD. a best-selling authorWhy did the Richters go to Dollywood?A. To avoid signing up online.B. To meet Dollywood board members.C. To make sure the books were the newest.D. To see if the books were of good quality.What can we learn from Tim’s words in the last paragraph?A. He needs more money to help the children.B. He wonders why some people are so busy.C. He tries to save those waiting to die.D. He considers his efforts worthwhile.CHave you ever found yourself in this situation: You hear a son g you used to sing when you were a child – a bit of nostalgia(怀旧) or “blast from the past,” as we say. But it is not a distant childhood memory. The words come back to you as clearly as when you sang them all those years ago.Researchers at the University of Edinburgh studied the rela tionship between music and remembering a foreign language. They found that remembering words in a song was the best way to remember even one of the most difficult languages.Here is what they did. Researchers took 60 adults and rand omly divided them into three groups of 20. Then they gave the groups three different types of “listen-and-repeat” learning conditions. Researchers had one group simpl y speak the words. They had the second group speak the wor ds to a rhythm, or beat. And they asked the third group to sing the words.All three groups studied words from the Hungarian languag e for 15 minutes. Then they took part in a series of language t ests to see what they remembered.Why Hungarian, you ask? Researchers said they chose Hu ngarian because not many people know the language. It does not share any roots with Germanic or Romance languages, s uch as Italian or Spanish. After the tests were over, the singer s came out on top. The people who learned these new Hunga rian words by singing them showed a higher overall performa nce. They did the best in four out of five of the tests. They also performed two times better than those who simply learned t he words by speaking them.Dr. Katie Overy says singing could lead to new ways to lear n a foreign language. The brain likes to remember things whe n they are contained in a catchy 3, or memorable 4, tune 5. Dr. Ludke said the findings could help those who struggle to l earn foreign languages. On the University of Edinburgh’s web site Dr. Ludke writes, “This study provides the first experiment al evidence that a listen-and-repeat singing method can support foreign language learning, and opens the door for future research in this area.”8. The “song” mentioned in the first paragraph is intended to .A. recall the pastB. attract the readersC. introduce the topicD. compare the childh ood with the present9. According to the passage which language doesn’t share the same root with Germanic or Romance languages?A. HungarianB. SpanishC. ItalianD. English10. Based on the last two paragraphs, we can conclude thatA. singing is the best way to learn a language.B. the brain probably works best when the foreign language le arners sing the words.C. a listen-repeat method is very effective for any language learner.D. Dr. Katie Overy and Dr. Ludke disagree with each other.11. In which situation can the finding of the research be applie d?A. A mother is going to teach her baby how to speak.B. A child is going to have his first music lesson.C. A student is going to learn a new English song.D. An American is going to learn some Chinese.DIn my generation, most people assume. We assume that after getting a driver’s license, we should see a brand new car sitti ng in our driveway. We assume that the latest iPhone product should be in our hands as soon as something goes wrong wit h our old one. We also assume that college, being as expensi ve as it is, is given. However, what we don’t realize is that all of these things are very special privileges.New cars, the latest technology and college fees are somethi ng that most people have in the place where I live. I’m not necessarily complaining about this. I live in a very fortunate area, and I try to remind myself of that every day.Getting nice things is great, but sometimes, the competition th at rules our lives gets too fierce. When someone else gets so mething great, you begin to think, “Why can’t I have that?” Wh en everyone around you goes to college, you think that one d ay you will obviously do the same, because who doesn’t? Even now, being almost done with my first year of college, I c onstantly see people who forget why we’re here, and how luc ky we are to be on this campus. All of the distractions can sur ely keep you from doing your best, and they can easily make you forget your real purpose at college. The parties, friends, e vents, and overall social life can move you into a never-ending whirlpool (旋涡）of not doing schoolwork. Having fun is a part of life, but balan ce is the key when it comes to college.Appreciation nowadays is slowly fading into a distant thought. We constantly forget how lucky we are to have the things and the life that we do. Surely, who doesn’t dream of a new car w aiting for them, or that brand new iPhone that you see in all of the commercials? But wanting something is different from ex pecting it. Setting yourself up with an “I should get this” attitud e will only push appreciation further away.Appreciate what you have, but don’t expect what you don’t ha ve. Say thank you to those who help and support you, and rea lize that whoever you are, you’re lucky in a great way.12. Which of the following may the author agree with?A. Assuming should be forbidden.B. People of his generation are lazy.C. What we have may be privileges.D. College education shouldn’t be expensive.13. What do we know about the author?A. He is too poor to afford a new car.B. He is sure that everyone can go to college.C. He is a fortunate second-year student.D. He is grateful for his college education.14. What does the author think of the social activities at colleg e?A. They should be balanced in students’ life.B. They are totally a waste of time and money.C. They make students confused about their life.D. They are useful for students after graduation.15. According to the fifth paragraph, people nowadays .A. don’t expect new cars or cell phonesB. don’t seem to appreciate what they haveC. always set up big goals in lifeD. often complain they are unlucky第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

Even our mother was afraid of him. As children, my sister and I thought every f amily was like that—that every family had an unpredictable dad who was impossibl e to please and a praying mom who was there to protect the children. We were good children. Mom was always telling us w e were, even if daddy couldn’t see it.Then came the day we found something new and fun to do. We discovered we could draw pictures with chalk on our woo den front door. We could have lots of fun, so we set to work dr awing and making lots of pretty pictures all over it. We had a great time. We decided to finish our pictures, knowing Mom w ould just love them.The praise we expected did not come. We did not understand why, but we knew our parents were angry, and that we were i n big trouble！Off we ran to find a place to hide. In our wooded yard it was n ot hard for two small children to find safety. Together, we hid behind a tree and did not move. Soon we heard the frightened voices of Mom and our neighbors calling out to us. We were afraid we would be found. The sun set, and it began to get dar k, we heard another voice, one we recognized with great fear: our daddy. But there was something strangely different about it. In it we heard something we had never heard before: fear and despair. Our daddy with tears running down his face, pra yed to God for the safe return of his girls.[]Things were different after that. We had a new daddy; it was a s if the old one had been buried that day in the yard. Our whole family had been changed by one piece of chalk.4. The children drew pictures on the wooden front door in ord er to .A. improve their drawing skillsB. be praised by their moth er.C. make the door beautifulD. have fun5. Why didn’t the children come out when others were searchi ng for them?A. They were afraid of being punished.B. They wanted to make their father worry.C.

The father came home early.C. The father became very angry.D. The children found it was interesting to do so.7. What can we infer from the passage?A. The father didn’t love his children.B. The father was too busy to talk with the children.C. The children weren’t afraid of their father after the incident.D. The family was afraid of the father because of his rudene ss.CHappy birthday! Do birthdays really make people happy? Of c ourse they do. Birthdays celebrate the day we were born. Bes ides, that extra candle on the cake suggests another year of g rowth and maturity—or so we hope. We all like to imagine that we’re getting wiser and not just older. Most of us enjoy seeing the miracle of grow th in others, as well. For instance, seeing our children develop and learn new things makes us feel proud. For Americans, lik e people in most cultures, growing up is a wonderful process. But growing old? That’s a different story.Growing old is not exactly pleasant for people in youth-oriented American culture. Most Americans like to look young, act young and feel young. As the old saying goes, “You’re as young as you feel.” Older people joke about how many years young they are, rather than how many years old. People in so me countries value the aged as a source of experience and wi sdom. But Americans seem to favor those that are young, or at least “young at heart”.Many older Americans find the “golden years” to be anything but golden. Economically, “senior citizens” often struggle just t o get by. Retirement at age 65 brings a sharp decrease in per sonal income. Social security benefits usually cannot make up the difference. Older people may suffer from poor nutrition, m edical care and housing. Some even experience age discrimi nation (歧视). In 1987, American sociologist Pat Moore dressed up like an older person and wandered city streets. She was often tre ated rudely—even cheated and robbed. However, dressed as a young pers on, she received much more respect.Unfortunately, the elderly population in America is increasing f ast. Why? People are living together. Fewer babies are being born. And middle-aged “baby boomers” are rapidly entering the groups of the el derly. America may soon be a place where wrinkles (皱纹) are “in”. Marketing experts are already noticing this group of consumers (消费者).8. The main ideaof the third paragraph is________.A. the golden years can make the old earn lots of moneyB. many old people in America are leading a hard lifeC. the old in America have to retire at the age of 65D. American social security benefits are not good9. From the last paragraph we know that the underlined word “in” can be replaced by________.A. seriousB. badC. disappearing slowlyD. growing fast10. From this passage we can know________.A. in America, growing up is not a wonderful processB. in America, growing up is as wonderful a process as gro wing oldC. in America, growing up is a wonderful process, while gro wing old is notD. in America, growing old is a wonderful process, while gro wing up is not11. What should be mentioned in the following paragraph?A. The public will change their attitudes towards old people.B. People will provide more services to the old in their com munities.C. Companies will soon produce more goods for old Americ ans.D. The government will pass laws to ensure the benefits of t he people.DNothing is more tiresome than being stuck in a boring class. E very second takes ages to tick by. A recent survey of America n kids revealed that 91 percent experience boredom. In fact, a dolescence is considered a peak period for the problem. One study showed that roughly one in three teenagers was bored at school.Peter Stromberg, professor at the University of Tulsa says, “O ur brains adapt really quickly to certain levels of stimulation(刺激). We get used to the media providing levels of highly emoti onal stimulation, and when we’re not getting them we feel bor ed. As our society develops various ways of keeping us entert ained, we may discover that rather than getting rid of boredo m, we’re increasing it.” Luckily, new research is implying a wa y that we can battle the trend.Professor John D. Eastwood of the University of York develop ed a new theory of boredom, which links it to the brain’s attent ion system—the part of the brain that we use to focus. Anything the attenti on system in your brain locks onto will be automatically sucke d up into your conscious awareness—it might be a bird outside the window, the pleasant smell of lunch, or even someone sleeping in the back of the class.The problem is that your attention system doesn’t like being to ld what to do. It wants to focus on stuff that you find fun and in teresting. For the parts of school that you enjoy, this isn’t a pr oblem. But for those classes that don’t interest you, or present too much or too little challenge, the story is very different. In t hose situations, you’re going to have to spend a lot of effort c onstantly redirecting your attention system to focus on things i t would rather ignore. And the effort is going to wear you out. Eastwood describes it as “wanting, but being unable, to be inv olved in a satisfying activity.”It’s like a block in the system. An d it’s the awareness of that block combined with a sense that t he environment is to blame that leads to feelings of boredom. When we’re bored we blame the world around us, but Eastwo od’s theory challenges this assumption: Boredom doesn’t exis t out there; it exists inside your brain. What that means is—hard as it may be to hear—boring lessons aren’t only the fault of your teacher or the subj ect, they’re your fault, too.12. According to Peter Stromberg, ________.A. teenagers are victims of boredomB. our brains demand much stimulationC. we’ve grown dependent on media for funD. the way we have fun makes us become bored13. According to Paragraph 4, the attention system ________.A. doesn’t like challengesB. enjoys interesting thingsC. does what you want it to doD. can make our efforts fruitle ss14. What might the author suggest about a boring class?A. Focusing more attention on it.B. Changing the way we look at it.C. Employing various teaching methods.D. Challenging the disturbing environment.15. What might be the best title for the passage?A. Escape Your BoredomB. Battle Your AttentionC. Fun or Boredom?D. Who Is to Blame?第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的七个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。
