The certification is intended to provide companies and consumers with some assurance that the waste, which can include toxins (毒素) such as lead and mercury, is disposed of safely.The Government Accountability Office, in a 2008 report, declared that US electronic waste was often disposed of unsafely in such countries as India. There, workers recycle gold, silver and copper from the waste, often in open-air acid baths.The Basel Network also says it won assurances from 13 organizations, includingSamsung, Bank of America, Wells Far-go, that they’ll use e-Steward recyclers whenever possible. Wells Fargo had already been using recyclers who declared not to export. So far, Basel has certified three recyclers and seven sites.Before e-stewards, even, companies that wanted to avoid export of electronic waste had to “hope for the best”, when, they handed their waste to recyclers, says Robert Houghton, president of Ohio-based recycler Redemtech. It is an e-Steward that counts major companies among its customers. “Now, they can get some proof,” Houghton says.Basel’s standards compete with another set launched in January. It was made by industry and backed by the Environmental Protection Agency.That standard, called R-2, doesn’t ban the export of dangerous electronic waste but requires that it be handled safely. Instead of a ban, the Institute of Scrap Recycling Industries says, efforts should be made to help poor countries develop safe recycling.25. How were most electronic wastes dealt with before?A. They were thrown into US landfills.B. They were buried in the desert m die US.C. They were exported to poor countries.D. They were reused by families in poor countries.26. E-Steward recyclers，main job is probably to .A. prevent old devices from open-air acid bathsB. dispose of electronic waste safelyC. collect more electronic waste for profitsD. assure America’s leading rule in the electronic market27. People in India import electronic waste to .A. get rid of toxinsB. learn how to make devicesC. recycle valuable metalsD. make cheaper products28. The passage is mainly about .A. how to deal with old electronic productsB. the development of recycling in the worldC. how to fight against electronic pollutionD. safer treatment of electronic wasteCWhen her five daughters were young, Helen An always told them that there was strength in unity (团结). To show this, she held up one chopstick, representing one person. Then she easily broke it into two pieces. Next, she tied several chopsticks together, representing a family. She showed the girls it was hard to break the tied chopsticks. This lesson about family unity stayed with the daughters as they grew up.Helen An and her family own a large restaurant business in California. However, when Hel en and her husband Danny left their home in Vietnam in 1975, they didn’t have much money. They moved their family to San Francisco. There they joined Danny’s mother, Diana, who owned a small Italian sandwich shop. Soon afterwards, Helen and Diana changed the sandwich shop into a small Vietnamese restaurant. The five daughters helped in the restaurant when they were young. However, Helen did not want her daughters to always work in the family business because she thought it was too hard.Eventually the girls all graduated from college and went away to work for themselves, but one by one, the daughters returned to work in the family business. They opened new restaurants in San Francisco and Los Angeles. Even though family members sometimes disagreed with each other, they worked together to make the business successful. Daughter Elizabeth explains, “Our mother taught us that to succeed we must have unity, and to have unity we must have peace. Without the strength of the family, there is no business.”Their expanding business became a large corporation in 1996, with three generations of Ans working together. Now the Ans’ corporation makes more than $ 20 million each year. Although they began with a small restaurant, they had big dreams, and they worked together. Now they are a big success.29. Helen tied several chopsticks together to show .A. the strength of family unityB. the difficulty of growing upC. the advantage of chopsticksD. the best way of giving a lesson30. We can learn from Paragraph 2 that the An family .A. started a business in 1975B. left Vietnam without much moneyC. bought a restaurant in San FranciscoD. opened a sandwich shop in Los Angeles31. Which of the following can be the best title for the passage?A. How to Run a CorporationB. Strength Comes from PeaceC. How to Achieve a Big DreamD. Family Unity Builds SuccessDRecently some articles claim the word “selfie” as one of the most annoying words. But I’d like to offer that maybe it isn’t not so bad.Th e “selfie” is used to describe the self taken photo, often from a smart phone. Women and men alike adorn their Instagram, Facebook and Twitter accounts with these pictures, sometimes with puckered lips or large smiles. In fact, the selfie has become so widely known that over 31 million photos on Instagram are captioned with the selfie.Let’s think about it. Someone takes about 10 seizes each time they do, and they only end up posting one or two of those. They pick the one that they feel makes them look the best. Isn’t that beautiful? In that one picture, someone has even him or herself confidence.Self-image is important. In society today, we are so often consumed with what society tells us is perfect. But maybe, with that one selfie, we feel like we fit that bill. We feel handsome, beautiful, confident, smart, happy and content. For that moment, everything bad or terrible that has ever happened to us is erased, because that smile or that pucker is what gives us the determination to loveourselves.I saw a spoken word poem recently and the young man said: If I ask you what you love the answers will most likely roll off your tongue. You love to read. You love to write. You love birds, music, tattoos… Your mom, your brother, your sister, your daughter, your best friend，your dog. How long do you think you could go on and on before you said “I love myself”？That statement hit me like a ton of bricks. I’ve struggled with confidence all of my life. I still do. And in no way am I saying that taking a selfie is a gateway to that confidence. However, the selfie does deserve some credit for allowing individuals to express themselves. Pamela Rutledge agrees, stating, “There are many more photographs available now of real people than models.”32. In the opinion of the writer, selfie .A. is an annoying phenomenon onlineB. makes a person become self-centeredC. is just a fashion among teenagersD. gives a person a sense of confidence33. According to the writer, we live in a society where .A. being perfect is highly valuedB. people judge others by their appearanceC. confidence is based on one’s self-imagesD. beauty almost decides everything really34. The writer mentioned a poem to stress .A. the power of real loveB. the need to love ourselvesC. the kinds of love we haveD. the endless love we get35. What Pamela said suggested that .A. selfie gets models to take more photosB. selfie helps more people look like modelsC. selfie provides more photos of real peopleD. selfie causes models to be out of work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。

People in Britain were much slower in finding out what tea was like, mainly because tea was very expensive. It could not be bought in shops and even those people who could afford to have it sent from Holland did so only because it was a fashionable curiosity. Some of them were not sure how to use it. They thought it was a vegetable and tried cooking the leaves. Then they served them mixed with butter and salt. They soon discovered their mistake but many people used to spread the used tea leaves on bread and give them to their children assandwiches.Tea remained scarce and very expensive in England until the ships of the East India Company began to bring it direct from China early in the seventeenth century. During the next few years so much tea came into the country that the price fell and many people could afford to buy it.At the same time people on the Continent were becoming more and more fond of tea. Until then tea had been drunk without milk in it, but one day a famous French lady named Madame de Sevigne decided to see what tea tasted like when milk was added. She found it so pleasant that she would never again drink it without milk. Because she was such a great lady her friends thought they must copy everything she did, so they also drank their tea with milk in it. Slowly this habit spread until it reached England and today only very few British people drink tea without milk.At first, tea was usually drunk after dinner in the evening. No one ever thought of drinking tea in the afternoon until a duchess（公爵夫人）found that a cup of tea and a piece of cake at three or four o clock stopped her getting “a sinking feeling” as she called it. She invited her friends to have this new meal with her and so, tea-time was born.21．Which of the following is true of the introduction of tea into Britain? ________A．British people were the first people in Europe who drank tea.B．It was not until the 17th century that British people had tea.C．British people got expensive tea from India.D．Tea reached Britain from Holland.22．What does this passage most probably talk about? ________A．It talks about how British people got the habit of drinking teaB．It talks about how tea became a popular drink in BritainC．It talks about the history of tea drinking in BritainD．It talks about how tea-time was born23．People in Europe began to drink tea with milk because ________A．tea with milk stopped people getting a sinking feelingB．people followed the way a French lady drank teaC．tea with milk was then a fashionable curiosityD．tea with milk tasted much more pleasant24．We may infer from the passage that the habit of drinking tea in Britain was mostly due to the influence of ________A．the upper social classB．the ancient ChineseC．a famous French ladyD．people in HollandBAn Israeli law banning too skinny models went into effect with the start of 2013.The law, approved last March in Israel, requires models to prove they have maintained a Body Mass Index（BMI）of at least 18.5 for three months before a fashion show. That means a woman who is 68 inches tall can weigh no less than 119 pounds.“This law is another step in the war against eating disorders,” said physician Adatto. “Underweight models,” he explained, “can no longer serve as role models for innocent young people who copy their false image of b eing skinny.”But some critics in this country say it is misguided, focusing on weight instead of health. They also say the Israeli ban is bound to fail because of the strong power of the fashion industry. “I think it’s an approach that isn’t going to work.” said eating disorder expert Susan Ice, who worked with an organization which creates a healthy working environment for models.But Adatto told the reporter that he began to concern the issue after meeting an ambitious model who looked like she needed to be hospitalized. He said. “I realized that only legislation（立法）can change the situation. There was no time to waste; so many girls were dieting to death.”However, the efforts to regulate models, weight in Spain and Italy have not resulted in significant changes in part because of difficulties in determining reliable methods of measuring weight and health.Still, folks including Ice say there, no denying that images from Hollywood and the fashion industry can be difficult for young women to deal with. “Certainly I don’t believe the modeling industry has caused the rise in eating disorders, but it makes it harder,” she says. “It’s a difficult recovery environment, worshiping thinness as the beauty ideal.”25．One benefit the new Israeli law may bring is ________.A．to change the working conditions of modelsB．to prevent models from suffering from eating disordersC．to provide guidance for women worshiping thinnessD．to lower the chance of skinny models’ death26．In the opinion of the critics, the law won’t su cceed because ________.A．it misleads young women to form a bad eating habit.B．the fashion industry is much too influential.C．it doesn’t create a healthy working environment for models.D．it doesn’t provide a proper approach that can work well.27．What caused Adatto to think that a law was needed to change the situation? ________A．Being interviewed by a reporter.B．Establishing his fashion model agent.C．Meeting an ambitious but too skinny model.D．Seeing a model die from eating disorders.28．According to the passage, the new Israeli law banning skinny models is ________.A．practicalB．reasonableC．acceptableD．argumentativeCSTAY INFORMED WITH CITIZENS’ BANK!Are you a busy person who likes to stay on top of your finances? Then why do you waste your time constantly checking your bank account? Citizens’ Bank now offers a new service for you.With our new Automated Alert Service, Citizens’ Bank account holders can have important account information sent directly to their cell phone or email address. The type of information you’ll receive is up to you:•Be informed when your account balance drops below a certain level.•Receive notification（通知）when a specific check clears.•Find out instantly whenever a withdrawal is made.With Automated Alerts, staying on top of your banking will be a lot easier. For more information, contact us at aas@citizensbank. net or drop by your nearest branch.From: Robert Renfield robertyaho@nemo. comTo: Citizens’ Bank aas@citizensbank. netSubject: An Inquiry of the Alert ServiceGood afternoon,I am writing to request more information on your new Automated Alert Service, as advertised on your Website. I have had both personal and commercial accounts with Citizens’ Bank for many years. Often, I find it necessary to move money between accounts. Because of this, it is vital that I keep a close eye on the cash flow of all of my accounts, to assure that their balances stay above the required minimums. Therefore, I have been searching for an economical means of keeping better track of my finances. I was considering purchasing software for this purpose, but I think that your new service might be a convenient alternative.My first question concerns the timeliness of the notifications. When you say “instantly,” does that relate only to banking hours? For example, if my wife were to use our debit card（借记卡）on a Sunday afternoon to make a transfer（转账）at an ATM, would I be informed via email instantly or on Monday morning? My second question is in regard to the information available in this service. Is it possible to be aware of any information in my monthly bank statement, such as interest on my savings account? Finally, I would like to know the cost of this service.Please send me this information as soon as possible. If necessary, you can contact me in the evenings at 225-782-0902.R. Renfield29．What is Citizens’ Bank advertising? ________A．A kind of checking account.B．A way to bank over the phone.C．A free hotline for new customers.D．A service for account holders.30．What is Mr. Renfield’s relation to Citizens’ Bank? ________A．He has had accounts with it for many years.B．He is a member of its board of directors.C．He recently opened a new account with it.D．He used its Automated Alert Service.31．Which of the following will be most important for Mr. Renfield? ________A．Receiving information directly on his cell phone.B．Knowing when his balances drop to a certain level.C．Being informed when a specific check clears.D．Having his monthly bank statement sent to him.DFor many parents, raising a teenager is like fighting a long war, but years go by without any clear winner. Like a border conflict between neighboring countries, the parent-teen war is about boundaries: Where is the line between what I control and what you do?Both sides want peace, but neither feels it has any power to stop the conflict. In part, this is because neither is willing to admit any responsibility for starting it. From the parents’ point of view, the only cause of their fight is their adolescents’ complete unreasonableness. And of course, the teens see it in exactly the same way, except oppositely. Both feel trapped.In this article, I’ll describe three no-win situations that commonly arise between teens and parents and then suggest some ways out of the trap. The first no-win situation is quarrel on unimportant things. Examples include the color of the teen’s hair, the cleanness of the bedroom, the preferred style of clothing, the child’s failure to eat a good breakfast before school, or his tendency to sleep until noon on the weekends. Second, blaming. The goal of a blaming battle is to make the other admit that his bad attitude is the reason why everything goes wrong. Third, needing to be right. It doesn’t matter what the topic is—politics, the laws of physics, or the proper way to break an egg—the point of these arguments is to prove that you are right and the other person is wrong, for both wish to be considered an authority—someone who actually knows something—and therefore to command respect. Unfortunately, as long as parents and teens continue to assume that they know more than the other, they’ll continue to fight these battles forever and never make any real progress.32．Why does the author compare the parent teen war to a border conflict? ________A．Both can continue for generations.B．Both are about where to draw the line.C．Neither has any clear winner.D．Neither can be put to an end.33．What does the underlined part in Paragraph 2 mean? ________A．The teens blame their parents for starting the conflict.B．The teens agree with their parents on the cause of the conflict.C．The teens accuse their parents of misleading them.D．The teens tend to have a full understanding of their parents.34．Parents and teens want to be right because they want to ________.A．give orders to the otherB．know more than the otherC．gain respect from the otherD．get the other to behave properly35．What will the author most probably discuss in the paragraph that follows? ________A．Causes for the parent-teen conflictsB．Examples of the parent-teen warC．Solutions for the parent-teen problemsD．Future of the parent-teen relationship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.选项中有两项为多余选项.How do you enter a room full of strangers? Do you walk right in full of confidence? Or do you try to slip in without being noticed? 36 In life, we admire those who do their tasks confidently. We prefer people who appear to know what they are doing. But where does that confidence begin?Developing self-confidence starts very e arly. If parents’ role to get kids on the right track toward becoming confident people. 37 .That can be done by focusing on the child’s strengths.

It could not be bought in shops and even those people who could afford to have it sent from Holland did so only because it was a fashionable curiosity. 英国很少有人知道茶长什么样因为它很贵. 来自荷兰的茶在商店买不到甚至有些人也买不起茶, 只是因为它是一个时尚好奇事物. 由此可知茶从荷兰运到英国. 故选D．22．主旨大意题从第一段.

AAunt Karen always had a special place in my heart. When I was growing up, I knew I could count on her to have room for me on her lap and words of love and encouragement when I needed to hear them. When she died five years ago，I was devastated. The whole family was still in shock when her husband, Uncle Ronnie, died a week later. I longed to have a small item of Aunt Karen’s to remember her by, but seeing her children and grandchildren overcome by the grief of this double loss made me shy away from asking.A few months after Aunt Karen’s death, I was on my way to work when I saw Rescued Treasures, a local second-hand store. I only had a couple of dollars on me and didn’t really intend to buy anything, but I stopped anyway just to look inside. I had been shopping around for a few minutes when a small, black handbag caught my eye. It wasn’t fancy or special. I didn’t really need a handbag and continued to look around the store, but something kept drawing me back to that handbag. Finally, I checked the price tag (标签). It was just one dollar.The handbag stayed in the back of my car for weeks until I came upon it during a car clean-up. I opened it up. I couldn’t believe it. They hadn’t even cleaned it out. It was still full of junk, old candy wrappers, old receipts (收据) and used paper. Usually the store emptied things inside, so there wouldn’t be any surprises for a new owner.I threw away some wastes, and sorted through the receipts, when I found one item in the small inside pocket. It was an insurance card with the name “Karen Stair” written on it. I began to cry. My beloved Aunt Karen. This was her handbag.21. What do we know from the passage?A. Karen’s husband survived her by five years.B. Karen’s children refused to give any item to the author.C. The author was very shy when she was young.D. Karen had been very kind to the author.22. The underlined word “devastated” in Paragraph 1 probably means “”.A. very worriedB. a little lonelyC. extremely sadD. slightly disappointed23. The author made up her mind to buy the handbag because .A. she just needed to buy a handbagB. the bag looked strange and was worth the priceC. it happened that she could afford itD. someone else persuaded her to buy it24. As soon as the author opened the handbag, she felt very .A. surprisedB. excitedC. sickD. nervousBMore companies and recyclers are taking steps to ensure that old electronic devices such as TVs and computers aren’t sent to poor countries.The Basel Action Network, a Seattle-based non-profit that largely exposed the overseas discarding (丢弃) of US electronic waste, on Thursday launched a programme to use third-party employees to certify (证实) recyclers who don’t export dangerous electronic waste.The so-called e-Steward recyclers will also agree not to discard the waste in US landfills and agree to meet other criteria. The certification is intended to provide companies and consumers with some assurance that the waste, which can include toxins (毒素) such as lead and mercury, is disposed of safely.The Government Accountability Office, in a 2008 report, declared that US electronic waste was often disposed of unsafely in such countries as India. There, workers recycle gold, silver and copper from the waste, often in open-air acid baths.The Basel Network also says it won assurances from 13 organizations, includingSamsung, Bank of America, Wells Far-go, that they’ll use e-Steward recyclers whenever possible. Wells Fargo had already been using recyclers who declared not to export. So far, Basel has certified three recyclers and seven sites.Before e-stewards, even, companies that wanted to avoid export of electronic waste had to “hope for the best”, when, they handed their waste to recyclers, says Robert Houghton, president of Ohio-based recycler Redemtech. It is an e-Steward that counts major companies among its customers. “Now, they can get some proof,” Houghton says.Basel’s standards compete with another set launched in January. It was made by industry and backed by the Environmental Protection Agency.That standard, called R-2, doesn’t ban the export of dangerous electronic waste but requires that it be handled safely. Instead of a ban, the Institute of Scrap Recycling Industries says, efforts should be made to help poor countries develop safe recycling.25. How were most electronic wastes dealt with before?A. They were thrown into US landfills.B. They were buried in the desert m die US.C. They were exported to poor countries.D. They were reused by families in poor countries.26. E-Steward recyclers，main job is probably to .A. prevent old devices from open-air acid bathsB. dispose of electronic waste safelyC. collect more electronic waste for profitsD. assure America’s leading rule in the electronic market27. People in India import electronic waste to .A. get rid of toxinsB. learn how to make devicesC. recycle valuable metalsD. make cheaper products28. The passage is mainly about .A. how to deal with old electronic productsB. the development of recycling in the worldC. how to fight against electronic pollutionD. safer treatment of electronic wasteCWhen her five daughters were young, Helen An always told them that there was strength in unity (团结). To show this, she held up one chopstick, representing one person. Then she easily broke it into two pieces. Next, she tied several chopsticks together, representing a family. She showed the girls it was hard to break the tied chopsticks. This lesson about family unity stayed with the daughters as they grew up.Helen An and her family own a large restaurant business in California. However, when Helen and her husband Danny left their home in Vietnam in 1975, they didn’t have much money. They moved their family to San Francisco. There they joined Danny’s mother, Diana, who owned a small Italian sandwich shop. Soon afterwards, Helen and Diana changed the sandwich shop into a small Vietnamese restaurant. The five daughters helped in the restaurant when they were young. However, Helen did not want her daughters to always work in the family business because she thought it was too hard.Eventually the girls all graduated from college and went away to work for themselves, but one by one, the daughters returned to work in the family business. They opened new restaurants in San Francisco and Los Angeles. Even though family members sometimes disagreed with each other, they worked together to make the business successful. Daughter Elizabeth explains, “Our mother taugh t us that to succeed we must have unity, and to have unity we must have peace. Without the strength of the family, there is no business.”Their expanding business became a large corporation in 1996, with three generations of Ans working together. Now the A ns’ corporation makes more than $ 20 million each year. Although they began with a small restaurant, they had big dreams, and they worked together. Now they are a big success.29. Helen tied several chopsticks together to show .A. the strength of family unityB. the difficulty of growing upC. the advantage of chopsticksD. the best way of giving a lesson30. We can learn from Paragraph 2 that the An family .A. started a business in 1975B. left Vietnam without much moneyC. bought a restaurant in San FranciscoD. opened a sandwich shop in Los Angeles31. Which of the following can be the best title for the passage?A. How to Run a CorporationB. Strength Comes from PeaceC. How to Achieve a Big DreamD. Family Unity Builds SuccessDRecently some articles claim the word “selfie” as one of the most annoying words. But I’d like to offer that maybe it isn’t not so bad.The “selfie” is used to describe the self taken photo, often from a smart phone. Women and men alike adorn their Instagram, Facebook and Twitter accounts with these pictures, sometimes with puckered lips or large smiles. In fact, the selfie has become so widely known that over 31 million photos on Instagram are captioned with the selfie.Let’s think about it. Som eone takes about 10 seizes each time they do, and they only end up posting one or two of those. They pick the one that they feel makes them look the best. Isn’t that beautiful? In that one picture, someone has even him or herself confidence.Self-image is important. In society today, we are so often consumed with what society tells us is perfect. But maybe, with that one selfie, we feel like we fit that bill. We feel handsome, beautiful, confident, smart, happy and content. For that moment, everything bad or terrible that has ever happened to us is erased, because that smile or that pucker is what gives us the determination to loveourselves.I saw a spoken word poem recently and the young man said: If I ask you what you love the answers will most likely roll off your tongue. You love to read. You love to write. You love birds, music, tattoos… Your mom, your brother, your sister, your daughter, your best friend，your dog. How long do you think you could go on and on before you said “I love myself”？That statement hit me like a ton of bricks. I’ve struggled with confidence all of my life. I still do. And in no way am I saying that taking a selfie is a gateway to that confidence. However, the selfie does deserve some credit for allowing individuals to express themselves. Pamela Rutledge agrees, stating, “There are many more photographs available now of real people than models.”32. In the opinion of the writer, selfie .A. is an annoying phenomenon onlineB. makes a person become self-centeredC. is just a fashion among teenagersD. gives a person a sense of confidence33. According to the writer, we live in a society where .A. being perfect is highly valuedB. people judge others by their appearanceC. confidence is based on one’s self-imagesD. beauty almost decides everything really34. The writer mentioned a poem to stress .A. the power of real loveB. the need to love ourselvesC. the kinds of love we haveD. the endless love we get35. What Pamela said suggested that .A. selfie gets models to take more photosB. selfie helps more people look like modelsC. selfie provides more photos of real peopleD. selfie causes models to be out of work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。

AHave you ever been to the world’s smallest bookstore?The World’s Smallest Bookstore, whose official name is just these three words, sits quietly about 100 miles northeast of Toronto.The bookstore is about 10 feet by 10 feet，so it is easy to imagine how tiny it really is. The bookstore is open 24 hours a day. Inside the bookstore are various books, especially literary books and classic auth ors’ works. So if you are looking for something less popular, you may get a bit disappointed there.Another special feature of this bookstore is that each book only costs three dollars. All the expenses are paid on the honor system, which means buyers should make a note of what they’ve bought and leave their money by themselves. So the tools of the trade in this bookstore are quite simple: pens, papers, light bulbs and a label-maker.In order to catch passers-by’s attention, the billboards (广告牌) of the bookstore are several times bigger than the store itself. With these largeeye-catchers, many people are willing to stop by and have a visit.1. What’s the passage mainly about?A. The popular books nowadays.B. A strange way of selling books.C. The world’s s mallest bookstoreD. The popular bookstores in the world.2. Which of the following books might you most probably get in the store?A. Books on popular science.B.
