第I卷(选择题)一、阅读理解A DAY OUT IN BRITAINAre you planning to visit Britain? Here are a few suggestions for a beautiful weekend away.BournemouthThis famous tourist town has 11 km of beautiful beaches. Last year, 10,000 tourists visited this beautiful town. It's the perfect place to go swimming or sailing. There are lots of lovely parks and gardens to visit and it's a great place to eat out. You can also go to a classical concert or go dancing in one of the nightclubs.Stratford-upon-AvonThis was William Shakespeare's hometown. He spent most of his life in this town and wrote his plays here. You can visit his house or see his plays at one of the Royal Shakespeare Company's theatres. There are some interesting museums and lots of beautiful 500-year-old house. You can also go on boat trips and visit traditional English villages.AlfordDeep in the Lincolnshire countryside is the pleasant market town of Alford. It is known for its five-sailed windmill (风车). Have a walk round this lovely old place and you'll see many pleasant houses from as far back as the 17th century. Captain James Smith, who was one of the founders of James town in Virginia, USA, was educated in Alford.BathMost people come here to see the 2'000-year-old Roman Baths. But this city is also famous for its beautiful 18th century buildings and was the home of the writer Jane Austen. Youcan learn about her life at the Jane Austen Centre near Queen's Square.

By then, everyone already had had their own friends, and no one wanted to talk to a new girl. To make things worse, they put me in ''Section L''. I found out later that everyone called Section L''Loserville''. It was sort of an open secret that it was the section for troublemakers andnot-so-smart kids. When I found out, I wanted to scream. I had always been a good student and had amazing friends, and now everyone thought I was a loser!I did text my friends in Illinois almost every night, especially my best friend, Ana. At first my friends wanted to hear all about it. But then some stopped texting back once I said something about how miserable I was. One night when I was texting with Ana, I complained about another friend who had just done that. Anas texts came really fast for the next few minutes and they surprised me. She said that she was tired of hearing about how bad everything was in New Jersey, too. She said she did not want to hurt my feelings but that I needed to stop feeling so sorry for myself all the time, and I had to try to make things better.The next day, I thought a lot about what Ana had said. She was right!I wish I could say that everything changed overnight after that, but it didn't, I was still stuck in ''Loserville'', and some people were still mean (苛刻) to me, even though I tried to just stay out of their way.But what did change was me — I stopped feeling so sorry for myself and did something about making friends. I signed up to make sets for the school play. I met a lot of new peoplethere, and suddenly I had friends to say hi to in the halls!I still miss Illinois sometimes, but life in New Jersey isn't so hard anymore. Even though I couldn't change my situation, I could change my attitude — and that made all the difference. 4.''Loserville'' is a section for ________.A.smart students B.low achieversC.class leaders D.new comers5.The writer complained all the time in the new environment because ________.A.Ana didn’t text back to her B.she was a good studentC.her friends hurt her feelings D.she was unfairly treated6.What made a difference in changing the situation?A.She managed to go back to Illinois. B.She ended the friendship with Ana. C.She began to make friends with others. D.She fought back with her classmates. 7.The best title for the passage can be ________.A.Everlasting Friendship B.Say Goodbye to ''Loserville''C.An Incident at School D.Unhappiness in ''Loserville''One devoted man is helping to make sure that children with poor living conditions won't go hungry during the school day.Mary’s Meals, an organization founded in 2002 by Scottish farmer Magnus Macfarlane-Barrow, provides needy kids in 12 countries with free meals at school each weekday. The group's aim is to ensure that students have food in their stomachs so they can better fix their attention on the study in class.Macfarlane-Barrow, who runs Mary’s Meals on his father's farm, told CN N that the entire operation started with a conversation he had with a teen living in a poor state. He said, ''In 2002, I was in Malawi during a year of terribly short of food, and I met this family — the father had died, and the mother was dying with her six children around her. I began talking to her oldest child, Edward, who was about 14, and asked him, 'What are your hopes? 'And he said, 'I'd like to have enough food to eat, and I'd like to go to school one day. ''' And that was it.In its first year, the group fed 200 children in need. Since that time, it has made rapid progress. Last month, Mary's Meals fed more than one million children every school day. That was 5 million meals every week. ''The million is amazingly important, but we are far from sati sfied. Our work's just beginning. We’ve proved that this works, and now we've just thinkingabout the next child, '' said Macfarlane-Barrow.He and the group recently celebrated the achievement in Malawi, where the program began. So far, the program has had very good results. In Malawi, schools that carried out the Mary's Meals program saw a 24 percent increase in the number of new students within the first six months.8.Why did Macfarlane-Barrow found Mary's Meals?A.He hoped to provide free food for poor families.B.He expected to teach children how to help others.C.He wished to become well-known by helping others.D.He wanted to make children free of hunger in class.9.What made Macfarlane-Barrow have the idea to start Mary's Meals?A.The conversation with a poor child. B.The success of helping a needy kid. C.The terribly short of food in Malawi. D.The poor living conditions of schools 10.What can we learn from the last two paragraphs?A.Schools in Malawi are popular.B.No children suffer from hunger now.C.Macfarlane-Barrow is satisfied with the result.D.Mary's Meals program has been very successful.11.What is the main idea of the text?A.Edward's dream has come true.B.A farmer feeds one million kids every school day.C.Malawi gets away from being short of food.D.Mary's Meals program has shocked the world.The term ''helicopter parents'' refers to ''a style of parents who are over focused on their children''.Helicopter parents are always making a big effort to provide children with every opportunity to succeed, from baby steps at age I, homework at age 8, college application at age 18, employment issues at age 25 to family problems at age 30, 40 or even older. They constantly (不断地) shadow the child, always directing his behavior, allowing him zero alone time.Helicopter parenting can develop for a number of reasons. Worries about the economy, thejob market, and the world in general can push parents toward taking more control over their children’s life in an attempt to protect them. Adults who felt unloved or ignored as children can overcompensate (对……补偿过多) with their own children. When parents see otherover-involved parents, it can cause a similar response. They feel that if they don t involve themselves in their children’s lives, they are bad parents.The main problem with helicopter parenting is that it can backfire. To give an example, the house where Mary lived with roommates was broken into and things were stolen. Mary called the landlord to install (安装) an alarm system, but before she could finish the negotiations (协商), her mother rushed in and demanded action. ''I felt like my mother ruined my communication with our landlord. We could have gotten it done ourselves. She was well intended but only made me feel annoyed and defeated, '' says Mary.Obviously, overparenting is motivated with the idea of doing good things but it does the exact opposite. In the long run parents are in fact damaging their child's basic skills to deal with matters independently. It makes the child feel lacking in confidence, less competent in dealing with the stresses of life on their own. They're winning the battle, but in fact losing the war. 12.What's the purpose of helicopter parents’ overparenting?A.To make their children not ignored.B.To help their children find a good job.C.To do something good for their children.D.To get rid of the pressure from other parents.13.What does the underlined word ''backfire'' in Paragraph 4 probably mean?A.Make an unwanted effect. B.Get a lot of support.C.Set fire in the backyard. D.Help to be independent.14.What can we learn from the passage?A.Children who have helicopter parents live a hard life.B.Helicopter parenting only happens to very young children.C.Helicopter parents do their children great harm in the long run.D.Helicopter parents can protect their children against all problems.15.What will possibly be discussed in the following paragraph?A.The bad effects of helicopter parenting.B.How we can avoid being helicopter parents.C.Different opinions about helicopter parenting.D.The reasons for the development of helicopter parents.二、完形填空Ann worked for a big company. One of the duties of her 16 was to go to the post office every day and 17 the company mail. One day in December, she 18 a beggar making himself up as a Santa Claus 19 on the corner of the street.

''What happened to the other Santa Claus? '' she asked. He told her, ''He's very 25 today. '' She prayed for his health.Later that day, a colleague came into her office 26 . ''I don't know what I’m going to do. '' ''What's wrong? '' she asked. ''It's my ex-husband, '' her colleague 27 .

Here are four reasons why change is good for you:◆37.Life in the comfort zone is easy. You simply follow a routine and you can predict the results. Outside of the comfort zone, your assumptions are questioned. The idea of doing the same thing over and over without question is discouraged.◆You get to experience more.38.When you look back on your life, all of the really amazing things are because of a new experience you had. All of those vacations you took and all of the people you have methave taught you more than you ever learned in school. These experiences now make up who you are today.◆You’ll be more flexible and adaptable.Without doubt, change makes you more flexible and adaptable. You leam to deal with things in a way that seems foreign but acceptable and achievable. 39.You begin to thrive (茁壮成长) in new situations because you have proven to yourself that you can, not only handle change, but FLOURISH.◆You have more fun.When you are open to change, you are open to saying YES to more. You are open to more experiences and opportunities. 40.When you add all of these things together, you are going to have a more colorful life and you’ll have a ton of fun figuring it all out along the way—there’s no doubt about it.A.You are pushed out of your comfort zone.B.Experience is waiting for you at the doorstep.C.You have the opportunity to meet more people too.D.Whether the change is good or bad for you, it does happen.E.We also know how challenging it can be to go through change.F.Then, you’ll be more confident when in the next uncomfortable situation.G.Change is good because you have the chance to involve in new experiences.四、语法填空阅读下面短文,在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。

In Malawi, schools that carried out the Mary's Meals program saw a 24 percent increase in the number of new students within the first six months.8.Why did Macfarlane-Barrow found Mary's Meals?A.He hoped to provide free food for poor families.B.He expected to teach children how to help others.C.He wished to become well-known by helping others.D.He wanted to make children free of hunger in class.9.What made Macfarlane-Barrow have the idea to start Mary's Meals?A.The conversation with a poor child. B.The success of helping a needy kid. C.The terribly short of food in Malawi. D.The poor living conditions of schools 10.What can we learn from the last two paragraphs?A.Schools in Malawi are popular.B.No children suffer from hunger now.C.Macfarlane-Barrow is satisfied with the result.D.Mary's Meals program has been very successful.11.What is the main idea of the text?A.Edward's dream has come true.B.A farmer feeds one million kids every school day.C.Malawi gets away from being short of food.D.Mary's Meals program has shocked the world.The term ''helicopter parents'' refers to ''a style of parents who are over focused on their children''.Helicopter parents are always making a big effort to provide children with every opportunity to succeed, from baby steps at age I, homework at age 8, college application at age 18, employment issues at age 25 to family problems at age 30, 40 or even older. They constantly (不断地) shadow the child, always directing his behavior, allowing him zero alone time.Helicopter parenting can develop for a number of reasons. Worries about the economy, thejob market, and the world in general can push parents toward taking more control over their children’s life in an attempt to protect them. Adults who felt unloved or ignored as children can overcompensate (对……补偿过多) with their own children. When parents see otherover-involved parents, it can cause a similar response. They feel that if they don t involve themselves in their children’s lives, they are bad parents.The main problem with helicopter parenting is that it can backfire. To give an example, the house where Mary lived with roommates was broken into and things were stolen. Mary called the landlord to install (安装) an alarm system, but before she could finish the negotiations (协商), her mother rushed in and demanded action. ''I felt like my mother ruined my communication with our landlord. We could have gotten it done ourselves. She was well intended but only made me feel annoyed and defeated, '' says Mary.Obviously, overparenting is motivated with the idea of doing good things but it does the exact opposite. In the long run parents are in fact damaging their child's basic skills to deal with matters independently. It makes the child feel lacking in confidence, less competent in dealing with the stresses of life on their own. They're winning the battle, but in fact losing the war. 12.What's the purpose of helicopter parents’ overparenting?A.To make their children not ignored.B.To help their children find a good job.C.To do something good for their children.D.To get rid of the pressure from other parents.13.What does the underlined word ''backfire'' in Paragraph 4 probably mean?A.Make an unwanted effect. B.Get a lot of support.C.Set fire in the backyard. D.Help to be independent.14.What can we learn from the passage?A.Children who have helicopter parents live a hard life.B.Helicopter parenting only happens to very young children.C.Helicopter parents do their children great harm in the long run.D.Helicopter parents can protect their children against all problems.15.What will possibly be discussed in the following paragraph?A.The bad effects of helicopter parenting.B.How we can avoid being helicopter parents.C.Different opinions about helicopter parenting.D.The reasons for the development of helicopter parents.二、完形填空Ann worked for a big company.

The idea of doing the same thing over and over without question is discouraged.◆You get to experience more.38.When you look back on your life, all of the really amazing things are because of a new experience you had.

You leam to deal with things in a way that seems foreign but acceptable and achievable. 39.You begin to thrive (茁壮成长) in new situations because you have proven to yourself that you can, not only handle change, but FLOURISH.◆You have more fun.When you are open to change, you are open to saying YES to more. You are open to more experiences and opportunities. 40.When you add all of these things together, you are going to have a more colorful life and you’ll have a ton of fun figuring it all out along the way—there’s no doubt about it.A.You are pushed out of your comfort zone.B.Experience is waiting for you at the doorstep.C.You have the opportunity to meet more people too.D.Whether the change is good or bad for you, it does happen.E.We also know how challenging it can be to go through change.F.Then, you’ll be more confident when in the next uncomfortable situation.G.Change is good because you have the chance to involve in new experiences.四、语法填空阅读下面短文,在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。

It’s a conclusion she came to while working as a pediatric oncology (儿科肿瘤) social worker using dolls to help her young patients adapt to their changing medical situations. Many of the kids saw themselves in those good dolls, but for the kids who had lost their legs or hair, there were none they could relate to.So, eight years ago, when a friend said that her child was disabled, Jandrisevits knew what might help the youth through the challenging period. “It’s hard to tell a kid, ‘You are perfect the way you are’, and it is important to build the kids’ self-confidence,” she says.Jandrisevits went about changing that. She made a doll by hand, which looked like her friend’s child and sent it off. After the friend posted a photo of the happy child and doll on-line, another woman asked Jandrisevits to make a doll that looked like her baby, who had lost a leg.Word spread, and soon Jandrisevits made dolls for children with different physical defects (缺陷) —in short, dolls that looked like them. She quit her job and started a nonprofit, A Doll Like Me. Working out of her home in Milwaukee, based on photos sent by kids’ parents or caregivers, Jandrisevits takes about seven hours to make each doll. A GoFundMe page helps her make up for costs and allows her to donate her services. She hasn’t charged for a doll since she began her nonprofit.In all, she has made more than 400 dolls. The waiting list is long, but Jandrisevits is undefeated. As she explains on her GoFundMe page, “Every kid, regardless of age or body type, should look into the sweet face of a doll and see their own.”4. What is the value of good dolls in the eyes of Jandrisevits?A.Helping patients learn to make the dolls.B.Letting patients see themselves in the dolls.C.Letting patients believe that they’re perfect.D.Helping patients adapt to the new school life.5. Who does Jandrisevits specially make dolls for?A.Disabled children. B.Adult patients.C.Sick doctors. D.Patients’ parents6. Which words can best describe Jandrisevits?A.Athletic and energetic. B.Romantic and funnyC.Frank and humorous. D.Helpful and skillful.7. What is the text mainly about?A.Jandrisevits trained herself to serve patients better.B.Jandrisevits made dolls to encourage the disabled kids.C.Jandrisevits ran a company to earn a lot more money.D.Jandrisevits created an online page to help patients.“Long time no see.” is a very interesting sentence. When I first read this sentence from an American friend’s e-mail, I laughed. I thought it was a perfect example of Chinglish.Obviously, it is a word-by-word literal translation (直译) of the Chinese greeting with wrong English grammar! Later on, my friend told me that it is a standard American greeting. I was too surprised to believe her. Her words were unbelievable at all. So I did research on . To my surprise, there are over 60 thousand web pages containing “Long time no see.” Though it is sort of informal, it is part of the language that Americans use daily. Interestingly, if you type this phrase in Microsoft Word, the software will tell you that the grammar needs to be corrected.Nobody knows the origin of this Chinglish sentence. Some people believe that it came from Charlie Chan’s movies. In the 1930s, Hollywood moviemakers successfully created a worldwide famous Chinese detective named “Charlie Chan” on wide screens. Detective Chan liked to t each Americans some Chinese wisdom by quoting Confucius. “Long time no see.” was his symbol. Soon after Charlie Chan, “Long time no see.” became a popular expression in America thanks to the popularity of these movies.Some scholars compare America to a huge melting pot. All kinds of cultures are mixed in the pot together and they change the color and taste of each other. Language is usually the first thing to be influenced in the mixed pot.You can have some examples from other countries, such as pizza from Italian, sushi from Japanese, and déjà vu from French etc. There is a long list! Since Americans admire Chinese culture more and more nowadays, I believe more Chinese words will become American English in the future. In this way, the American’s meltin g pot keeps adding richness.8. Why did the writer himself feel surprised?A.“Long time no see.” is a Chinglish expression.B.He’s found Americans use the expression formally every day.C.So many literal translations of expressions are used in America.D.“Longtime no see.” is used as a standard American English greeting.9. What do the underlined words “a huge melting pot” in paragraph 4 probably mean?A.A large boiling cooker. B.Cross-cultural mixture.C.A kind of cooked dish. D.Confucius’s famous wor ds.10. What can be inferred from the passage?A.Detectives translated the phrase “Long time no see.”B.Cultures cannot be changed in the huge melting pot.C.Hollywood probably made “Longtime no see.” popular.D.The huge melting pot greatly affects all kinds of languages.11. What is the main idea of the passage?A.Some American expressions can be used in China.B.Americans have a strong interest in Chinese culture.C.American English keeps being enriched by different cultures.D.Some Chinese daily expressions are introduced into English.Children should do housework. That’s a controversial (有争议的) idea, though not everyone will admit it. A few parents will say that their children are too busy for housework. Many more of us assign (分派) housework, or say we believe in them, but the housework just doesn’t get done.That’s a problem. For starters, housework is good for kids. Being a part of the routine work of running a household helps children develop an awareness of the needs of others, while at the same time contributing to their emotional well-being.One small study, done over a period of 25 years, found that the best predictor (预测) for young adults’ success in their mid-20s was whether they participated in household tasks at age 3 or 4. Those early shared responsibilities extended to a sense of responsibility in other areas of their lives.But for all that their help matters, few kids are doing much around the house at all. In a survey of 1,000 American adults, 75 percent said they believed regular h ousework made kids “more responsible”. Yet while 82 percent reported having had regular housework growing up, only 56 percent of those with children said they required them to do housework.Sports and homework are not get-out-of-housework-free cards. The goal, after all, is to raise adults who can balance a caring role in their families and communities with whatever lifetime achievement goals they choose. Housework teaches that balance.What should you do when getting children to do housework? Accept no exc uses. Don’t worry if you must repeat yourself again and again. If you’re spending more time getting the child to do this job than it would take to do it yourself, then you’re doing it right. Can a payment help? Maybe. But if you’re trying to teach kids to share the responsibility of a home, paying them for routine housework is not the right message.12. What can we infer from the first paragraph?A.Very few children get housework done. B.Children are very busy with housework.C.Housework is a must-do for parents. D.Family members should respect eachother.13. What is found in the small study?A.Housework helps a man live a happy life. B.A man’s success depends on hishousework.C.Housework benefits a sense of responsibility. D.A child must start doing housework at Age 3.14. What does the author advise parents to do in the last paragraph?A.Balance housework and study. B.Help the child do housework positively.C.Do housework by themselves. D.Pay the child for housework.15. What is the best title of the text?A.Adults Do Less Housework in the US B.Housework Matters to Children.C.Parents Words Speak Louder D.Children Need More Care at HomeHow to Turn Your Goals into HabitsFirst we make our habits, then our habits make us. It’s such a simple concept, yet it’s something we don’t always do.I believe that having ONE goal to focus on is much more powerful than having many goals. By putting the belief into practice, I have achieved a lot of personal goals over time. 16 My answer takes a little explaining. I try to turn my goals into habits, and in doing so, I put my goals on autopilot. Turning a goal into a habit means really focusing on it for at least a month. The more you can focus, the more it’ll be on autopilot. 17 You’ll still do it, but you only have to use minimal force to maintain it, and you can focus on your next goal or habit.Take my marathon goal as an example. I was just starting running and had the brilliant idea to run a marathon within a year. So that was my goal. 18 First, I had to make running a daily habit. Second, I had to report to people in order to have accountability (负责) so that I could not quit easily. I focused on the daily running habit for about a month, and didn’t have any other goals or habits. When the running habit stuck, I started reporting to people I knew and blogging about my running every day.19 I could focus on new goals without having to worry about the marathon. I still had to do the running, of course, but it didn’t require constant focus. 20 I was able to achieve this because, all year long, I had daily running and accountability habits. I put my marathon goal into autopilot, so instead of struggling with it daily for an entire year, I focused on it for one month and was able to accomplish it while focusing on new habits and goals.One day last summer, my 9-year-old son Ben and I were riding the waves at a popular ocean beach on outer Cape Cod. As we were playing happily with our surfboard, I suddenly noticed an astonishing _________—some whales were spouting (喷水) well within view of where we_________.We stared and pointed in _________. “Ben, can you believe it?” I cried. “We’re swimming with the whales!” “Mom,” Ben said in reply, “we’re _________ swimming with the whales. This is their habitat, not ours!”Ben’s words took my breath away, more than the dramatic waves and the amazing sight of the_________.He was absolutely _________, of course. These whales live in the waters off Cape Cod. This is their _________—one that we visit, love and protect. So when we set foot into a _________ space, it’s meaningful and important to _________ that we are visiting something that is beautiful and enjoyable to us, but is not __________ for us.We each have a part to play in __________ space.
