One windy spring day，I observed young people having fun using the wind to fly their kites.Multicolored creations of varying shapes and sizes filled the skies like beautiful birds dashing and dancing in the exciting atmosphere above the earth.As the strong winds gusted against the kites，a string kept them in check.Instead of blowing away with the wind，they arose against it to achieve great heights.They shook and pulled，but the controlling string and the clumsy tail kept them in tow(牵引)，facing upward and against the wind.As the kites struggled and trembled against the string，they seemed to say，“Let me go！Let me go！I want to be free！” They flew beautifully even as they fought the forced restriction of the string.Finally，one of the kites succeeded in breaking loose.“Free at last，” it seemed to say.“Free to fly with the wind.”Yet freedom from control simply put it at the mercy of an unsympathetic gentle wind.It flew ungracefully to the ground and landed in a twisted mass of weeds and string against a dead bush.“Free at last”．Free to lie powerless in the dirt，to be blown helplessly along the ground，and to settle down lifeless against the first roadblock. How much like kites we sometimes are.There always exist misfortunes and restrictions，rules to follow from which we can grow and gain strength.Prohibition is a necessary counterpart to the winds of opposition.Some of us pulled at the rules so hard that we never fly fast to reach the heights we might have obtained.If we keep all the commandment(戒律)，we will never rise high enough to get our tails off the ground. Let us each rise to the great heights，recognizing that some of the prohibitions are actually the steady force that helps us climb and achieve.1．In the passage the writer watched .A．many young people enjoying the sunny dayB．many birds dashing and dancing in the skyC．many young people flying multicolored kitesD．the strong winds blowing against the sky2．What enables a kite fly gracefully in the sky according to the story?A．The kite itself and strange shapes.B．A long string and blowing wind.C．A windy spring day and blue sky.D．The size of the kite and a long string.3．What didn’t happen to the freed kite?A．It kept flying freely in the air.B．It lay powerless in the dirt.C．It was trapped in a dead bush.D．It was blown helplessly around.4．What is the purpose of the author in writing this passage?A．To give us tips on how to fly kites effectively.B．To warn us that freedom is actually powerless.C．To explain that restrictions are really unnecessary.D．To teach us a lesson that rules are important in life.1．C [细节理解题。

“Goodbye，Trevor，”I said to my nine­year­old son as he trudged through the snowy yard on his way to school.But，as usual，he didn’t turn around or acknowledge my words.He had just been diagnosed with Pervasive Developmental Disorder (PDD)，which explained his lack of expression and communication.Since the age of three，he had almost compl etely stopped talking.He wouldn’t even look at me and smile.Everything had to be the same every day，including his black mittens(连指手套)．No other pair would do.But this morning I couldn’t find his black mittens，so he had to wear a spare pair.He had slammed the door.I watched his little blond head bob up and down behind the fence as he continued walking to school，gesturing with his hands.He talks to himself all the time.If only he would share a story or two with me，I thought，as I left the window and returned to finish the breakfast dishes.Tears dropped onto the table as I wiped the spot where Trevor sat each morning for breakfast.He routinely blurted out inappropriate messages to his cereal，but I was merely the invisible robot that served him.“Good night，I love you，”was only a rote saying that he recited each night at bedtime.A knock at the door interrupted my sullen thoughts.“Trevor！What’s wrong？Did you forget your books？”He didn’t answer.“Mommy，”he began.“Yes？”I whispered.I slowly lowered to my knees to b e at his eye level.If I moved too quickly，I would shatter this fragile moment.His bright blue eyes grew shiny，and a tear slipped down his round cheeks. “Mommy，I’m sorry，”he said.He only spoke three simple words，but his soul had opened.He had talked to me from his heart.He showed emotion.Then his face hardened，and he turned and ran.All it took was three words，a tear，and his round blue eyes looking into mine.And I will always be grateful to God for giving me this little spark of hope. 1．When Trevor went to school that morning，he was .A．angry B．happyC．reluctant D．sick2．Why did Trevor come back?A．To take his books in his bedroom.B．To make an apology to his mom.C．To show his emotion of thankfulness.D．To wear more clothes to keep warm.3．The underlined word “shatter” in Paragraph 7 may mean “ ”．A．forget B．avoidC．destroy D．seize4．The last paragraph suggests that the writer firmly believes .

The 400 phone messages said it all. Veterans(老兵) wanted to talk, and Jeff Beers, a military history buff and the son of a retired Navy man, was ready to listen. Beers had volunteered for the Veterans History Project, a program at the Library of Congress dedicated to preserving the oral histories of American’s 19 million veterans. Local newspapers listed Beer’s number, and the response was tremendous. He’s videotaped 52 vets ever since.“Most of them are shocked that anyone would be interested in their small story,” says Beers, 33, an assistant engineer for the city of Poway, Calif. “They ask, ‘Why now?’ B ut it has to be now, before it’s too late.” The U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs estimates that 1,847 veterans die each day.Beers and the other volunteers are collecting the I-was-there detail. One of the most moving came from a World War II POW (prisoner of war): “He had to march 500 miles through the Black Forest in winter. They ate bark soup and slept at local farm.”The WW II generation comprises(包含) most of the 700 histories gathered since the program began in 2001. But, says director Ellen Lovell, they want to hear from vets of every war. “I interviewed my brother-in-law, an army surgeon in Vietnam,” she says. “He said he shared things with me t hat he’s never told anyone.”1. What do we know from the text about the veterans?A. They live a very happy life after the war.B. They often told their stories to others.C. They were highly respected by people.D. They are becoming fewer and fewer in numbers.答案解析：答案为D。

He found inspiration in the power and free dom of the waves and the seabirds on the coast. “I need the s ea because it teaches me，” he wrote. “I move in the universit y of the waves.” He loved how the sea forever renewed itself,a renewal echoed in his work.1.The underlined word “Picasso”can probably be replaced by“________”．A．most important person B．famous person from Pica ssoC．freedom fighter in Picasso D．poem fans.2.

All of Rick seemed to be shown in the eyes, with a strong feeling that ought to have hurt him“You knew me,” Rick said. “You hadn’t forgotten.”“You’re ——just the same,” the boy said, and felt much thankful.He seemed even to be wearing the same clothes, the same blue shirt and grey trousers. He was thin, but he was built to be lean; and he was still, or again, sunburnt (晒黑了). After everything, the slow white smile still showed the slight feeling of happiness.“Let’s look at you,” Rick said, dropping into a chair. Then slowly he felt more at home, and he became once more just Rick, as if nothing had happened. There were lines about his eyes, and deeper lines on his cheeks (面颊), but he looked like——just Rick, lined by sunlight and smiling.“When I look at you,” he said, “You make me think about me, for we look like each other.”“Yes,” said the boy, eagerly, “they all think we both look like my grandfather.”1.

Yes, but not in words. Scientists have reason to believe that trees do communicate (交际) with each other. Not long ago, researchers learned some surprising things. First a willow tree attacked in the woods by caterpillars (毛虫) changed the chemistry of its leaves and made them taste so terrible that they got tired of the leaves and stopped eating them. Then even more astonishing, the tree sent out a special smell---a signal (信号) causing its neighbors to change the chemistry of their own leaves and make them less tasty.Communication, of course, doesn’t need to be in words. Wecan talk to each other by smiling, raising our shoulders and moving our hands. We know that birds and animals use a whole vocabulary of songs, sounds, and movements. Bees dance their signals, flying in certain patterns that tell other bees where to find nectar (花蜜) for honey. So why shouldn’t trees have ways of sending message?1. It can be concluded from the passage that caterpillars do not feed on leaves that ______.A. are lying on the groundB. have an unpleasant tasteC. bees don’t likeD. have an unfamiliar shape2.

Amelia Earhart was flying alone from North America to England in a small single—engined aeroplane. At midnight, several hours after she had left Newfoundland, she ran into bad weather. To make things worse, her altimeter (高度表) failed and she didn’t k now how high she was flying. At night, and in a storm, a pilot is in great difficulty without an altimeter. At times, her plane nearly plunged (冲) into the sea.Just before dawn, there was further trouble. Amelia noticed flames (火焰) coming from the engine. Would she be able to reach land?

When she returned to the United States, she was honored by President Hoover at a special dinner in the White House. From that time on, Amelia Earhart was famous.What was so important about her flight?

The answer depends largely on cultural values as well as personal experiences. To the Egyptians, green was a color that represented the hope and joy of spring, while for Muslims, it means heaven. Red is a symbol of good luck in many cultures. In China, children are given money in a red envelope to bring good fortune in the New Year. For many nations, blue is a symbol of protection and religious beliefs. Greek people often wear a blue necklace hoping to protect themselves against evils (灾祸).People's choice of colors is also influenced by their bodies' reactions (反应) toward them. Green is said to be the most restful color. It has the ability to reduce pain and relax people both mentally and physically. People who work in green environment have been found to have fewer stomach aches.Red can cause a person's blood pressure to rise and increase people's appetites (食欲). Many decorators will include different shades of red in the restaurant. Similarly, many commercial websites will have a red "Buy Now" button because red is a color that easily catches a person's eye.Blue is another calming color. Unlike red, blue can cause people to lose appetite. So if you want to eat less, some suggest that eating from blue plates can help.The next time you are deciding on what to wear or what color to decorate your room, think about the color carefully.63.

阅读理解：细节理解〔二〕ATaking a shower is relaxing. You can hum a song, daydream or think about nothing, leaving the real world behind you. But did you know that showering can also benefit your mind?A research by Scott Barry Kaufman, a psychologist from Yale University in the U．S. interviewed over 3,000 people around the world. It turned out that nearly twothirds of the interviewees said they had experienced new ideas in the shower and were more likely to have them in the shower than at work.So why does a simple shower have such magic power? Science can explain it.Showering can help to raise our level of dopamine, a hormone (荷尔蒙) closely related to our creativity. “People vary in terms of their level of creativity according to the activity of dopamine，〞 explained Alice Flaherty, a famous American neuroscientist. “Taking a warm shower can make us feel relaxed and therefore make the dopamine level rise and bring ‘Aha！’ moment to us.〞Besides the chemical changes, showering may give you a break from what you feel you have been stuck with. Especially when you have thought hard all day about a problem, jumping into the shower can keep you from the outside world so that you can focus on your inner feelings and memories. In this way, according to American psychologist Shelley H. Carson, author of YourCreativeBrain, “A showering hour may turn into an ‘incubation (孵化) period’ for your ideas.〞Compared with sitting in front of a computer, taking a shower is something we do less frequently in our daily life. When showering, we get a fresh experience with the change of location, temperature and humidity. “New and unexpected experiences can lead to positive changes in thinking，〞explained Kaufman. “Getting off the couch and jumping in the shower may create a distance and force you to think from a new point of view.〞Showering allows us to enjoy the creative juices of our minds, but it needn't just be the bathroom where you get your inspiration. For instance, Gertrude Stein, a female American writer and poet, got new ideas by driving around a farm and stopping at different cows until she found the one that most inspired her. So try to createyour own way to free your mind.语篇解读：一项科学实验证实淋浴对人们身心有益，尤其可以激发大脑的创造力。

This population consists of birds,bats frogs,snakes,etc. For example,outdoor lighting severely affects migrating(迁徙的)birds.According to the International Dark-Sky Association. “100 million birds a year throughout North America die in crashes wi th lighted buildings and towers.”Countless more animals casualties(伤亡)result from the use of artificial lighting.Clearly,people enjoy the benefits of lighting their evenings,but some scientists think it can be harmful for humans,too. They worry that exposure to light while sleeping can increase person’s chances of getting cancer.Emerald Valley is only one community that is becoming aware of the negative effects of hight pollution.For years,Flagstaff,Arizona,has enforced lighting regulations in its city in order to assist astronomers at the Lowell Observatory.Similar efforts have been made worldwide,and a movement is underway to remind us to turn off lights when we are not using them,so that other creatures can share the night.41.It happened last night thatA.the city’s lights affected the meteor watchingB.the meteors flew past before being noticedC.the city light show attracted many peopleD.the meteor watching ended up a social outing42.What do the astronomers complain about?A.Meteor showers occur less often than beforeB.Their observation equipment is in poor repairC.Light pollution has remained unsolved for yearsD.Their eyesight is failing due to artificial lighting43.What the author concerned about according to Paragraph 4?A.Birds may take other migration pathsB.Animal’living habits may change suddenlyC.Varieties of animals will become sharply reducedD.Animals’survival is threatened by outdoor lighting44.Lighting regulations in Flagstaff,Arizona are put into effect toA.Lessen the chance of getting cancerB.create an ideal observation conditionC.ensure citizens a good sleep at nightD.enable all creatures to live in harmony45.What message does the author most want to give us?A.Saving wildlife is saving ourselvesB.Great efforts should be made to save energyC.Human activities should be environmentally friendlyD.New equipment should be introduced for space studyC.Poet William Stafford once said that we are defined more by the detours(绕行路)in life that by the narrow road toward goals.I like this image.But I as quite by accident that I discovered the deep meaning of his words.For years we made the long drive from our home in Seattle to my parents’ home in Boise in nine hours.We traveled the way most people do:the fastest,shortest easiest road,especially when ai was alone with four noisy,restless kids who hates confinement(限制)and have strong opinions about everything.Road trips felt risky,so I would drive fast,stopping only when I had to.We would stick to the freeways and arrive tired.But then Banner,our lamb was born.He was rejected by hismama days before our planned trip to Boise.I had two choices:leave Banner with my husband,or take him with me.My husband made the decision for me.That is how I found my self on the road with four kids,a baby lamb and nothing but my everlasting optimism to see me through.We took the country roads out of necessity.We had to stop every hour,let Banner shke out his legs and feed him.The kids chased him and one another.They’d get back in the car breathless and energized,smelling fresh from the cold air.We explored side roads,catching grasshoppers in waist-high grass.Even if we simply looked out of the car windows at baby pigs following their mother,or fish leaping out of the water,it was better than the best ride down the freeway. Here was life.And new horizons(见识).We eventually arrived at my parents’doorstep astonishingly fresh and full of storiesI grew brave with the trip back home and creative with my disciplining technique.On an empty section of road,everyone started quarreling.I stopped the car,ordered all kids out and told them to meet me up ahead.I parked my car half a mile away and read my book in sweet silence.Some road trips are by necessity fast and straight.But that trip with Banner opened our eyes to a world available to anyon adventurous enough to wander around and made me realize that a detour may uncover the best part of a journey----and the best part of yourself.46.Why did the author use to take freeways to her parents’home?A.It was less timeB.It would be faster and saferC.Her kids would feel less confinedD.She felt better with other drivers nearby47.The author stopped regularly on the country roads toA.relax in the fresh airB.take a dep breathC.take care of the lambD.let the kids play with Banner48.What does the author discover from the trip according to Paragraph 6?A.Freeways are where beauty hides.B.Getting close to nature adds to the joy of lifeC.Enjoying the beauty of nature benefits one’s healthD.One should follow side roads to watch wild animals49.Why did the author ask the kids to get out of the car on their way back home?A.To give herself some time to readB.To order some food for themC.To play a game with them.D.To let them cool down50.What could be the best title for the passage?A.Charm of the DetourB.The Road to BraveryC.Creativity out of NecessityD.Road trip and Country LifeD.When asked about happiness,we usually think of something extraordinary, an absolute delight,which seems to get rarer the older we get.For kids,happiness has a magical quality.Their delight at winning a race or getting a new bike is unreserved(毫不掩饰的).In the teenage years the concept of happiness changes.Suddenly it’s conditional on such things as excitement,love and popularity.I can still recall the excitement of being invited to dance with the most attractive boy at the school party.In adulthood the things that bring deep joy----love,marriage,birth----also bring responsibility and the risk of loss.For adults,happiness is complicated(复杂的)My definition fo happiness is “the capacity for enjoyment”.The more we can enjoy what we have,the happier we are.It’s easy to overlook the pleasure we get from the company of friends,the freedom to live where we please,and even goo health.I experienced my little moments of pleasure yesterday.First I was overjoyed when I shut the last lunch-box and had the house to myself.Then I spent an uninterrupted morning writing,which I love.When the kids and my husband came home,I enjoyed their noise after the quiet of the day.Psychologists tell us that to be happy we need a mix of enjoyable leisure time and satisfying work.I don’t think that my grandmother,who raised 14 children,had much of either.She did have a network of close friends and family,and maybe this is what satisfied her.We,however,with so many choices and such pressure to succeed in every area,have turned happiness into one more thing we’ve got to have.We’ve so self-conscious about our “right” to it that it’s making us miserable.So we chase it and equal it with wealth and success,without noticing that the people who have those things aren’t necessarily happierHappiness isn’t about what happens to us----it’s abouthow we see what happens to us.It’s the skillful way of finding a positive for every negativ e.It’s not wishing for what we don’t have,but enjoying what we do possess.51.As people grow older,theyA.feel it harder to experience happinessB.associate their happiness less with othersC.will take fewer risks in pursuing happinessD.tend to believe responsibility means happiness52.What can we learn about the author from Paragraph 5 and 6?A.She cares little about her own healthB.She enjoys the freedom of travelingC.She is easily pleased by things in daily lifeD.She prefers getting pleasure from housework53.What can b informed from Paragraph 7?A.Psychologists think satisfying work is key to happinessB.Psychologists’opinion is well proved by Grandma’caseC.Grandma often found time for social gatheringsD.Grandma’s happiness came from modest expecta tions of life54.People who equal happiness with wealth and successA.consider pressure something blocking their wayB.stress then right to happiness too muchC.are at a loss to make correct choicesD.are more likely to be happy55.What can be concluded from the passage?A.Happiness lies between the positive and the negativeB.Each man is the master of his own fateC.Success leads to happinessD.Happy is he who is content四、阅读表达My name is Clara.I still remember that chilly December day,sitting in science class.I’d finished a worksheet early and picked up a TIME for Kids magazine. A piece of news caught my eye:NASA was holding an essay contest to name its Mars rover(火星探测器).Before I even knew anything else about it,a single word flooded my 11-year-old mind,Curiosity.I couldn’t want for the bell to ring so I could get started on my essay.That afternoon,I raced home,sat down at the computer,and typed until my fingers ached. “Curiosity is an everlasting flame that burns in everyone’s mind...”Five months later, my mon received a phone call,and immediately, a wide smile spread across her face.On August 5,2012,at 10:31 p.m,the rover named Curiosity touched down safely on the surface of Mars,and I was honored to have a front-row seat in NASA.Curiosity is such an important part of who I am.I have always been fascinated by the stars,the planets,the sky and the universe.I remember as a little girl,my grandmother and I would sit together in the backyard for hours.She’d tell me stories and point out the stars,Grandma lived in China,thousands of miles away from my home in Kansas,but the stars kept us together even when we were apart.They were always there, yet there was so much I didn’t know about them.That’s what I love so much about space.People often ask me why we go to faraway places like Mares.My answer is simple because we’re curious.We human beings do not just hole up in one place.We are constantly wondering and trying to find out what’s over the hill and beyond the horizon.56.How did Clara get the new about the essay contest?( no more than 10 words)57.Why did Clara have a front-row seat in NASA?( no more than 10 words)58.What does Clara remember about the time spent with Grandma?( no more than 15 words)59.What does the underlined phrase “hole up”mean?(1 word)60.In your opinion,why is curiosity important?( no more than20 words)五、书面表达61.假设你是某大学的学生李津，你校英语俱乐部将选举新一届副主席，负责规划、组织俱乐部的相关活动，你欲参选，请按以下提示，写一篇竞选演讲稿。
