第I 卷（选择题）一、完形填空As a teenager, I was pretty lazy when it came to doing things for my family. I worked hard at school, and sometimes looked after my younger sister. Still, I found myself regularly resisting the urge to 1 out at home with even the simplest things.Every Wednesday afternoon, for example, my mother 2 me to another town for a piano lesson. During my two-hour lesson, she'd rush to the nearby store and buy a week's worth of 3 . Given the fact that my mom had driven me twelve miles there, twelve miles back, 4 for my lesson, and bought me a candy bar, you'd think I'd be very 5 to help her bring the groceries into the house. 6 I wasn't. I generally just brought in an armload and left the 7 for Mom as I ran to my room, shut the door, and started studying.Don't get me wrong: even back in my room, I felt 8 about not helping my mother more. Deep inside, I wanted to change my 9 But I also realized that once I did change, there'd be no going back. 10 I took on more responsibility, my parents would start 11 more of me. At age fifteen, I sensed that this one small change would 12 something much bigger: my personal change from a cared-for, spoiled (被宠坏的) child to a more 13 caring and giving young man.I'll never forget the Wednesday when I made a(n) 14 to jump in and see what happened. Returning home from the 15 I disappeared into my room, as usual. But once inside, I felt that deep and burning 16 .Throwing my school books on the bed, I suddenly opened my door and 17 back tothe garage to help my mother. How happy I felt that day!Surely, over time, I continued to help out with more housework. The neat thing was, the more I helped out, the 18 I felt about myself and my place in my family. As Mom and Dad realized they could 19on me more, our trips became far less stressful, too. In short, it was a win-win situation for everyone.Sometimes the little things we put off doing the longest 20 out to be the simplest things to complete. And feeling happy beats feeling guilty any day.1．A ．start B ．cry C ．help D ．work 2．A ．sent B ．guided C ．walked D ．drove 3．A ．fruits B ．flowers C ．groceries D ．vegetables 4．A ．fought B ．paid C ．applied D ．planned 5．A ．grateful B ．nervous C ．confident D ．unwilling 6．A ．So B ．And C ．Thus D ．But7．A ．one B ．other C ．next D ．rest8．A ．excited B ．curious C ．doubtful D ．guilty 9．A ．way B ．world C ．career D ．shape 10．A ．Once B ．Though C ．Unless D ．Since11．A ．warning B ．reminding C ．expecting D ．informing 12．A ．mark B ．tell C ．express D ．describe13．A ．energetic B ．ambitious C ．outgoing D ．responsible 14．A ．excuse B ．decision C ．statement D ．appointment 15．A ．duty B ．lesson C ．store D ．holiday 16．A ．shame B ．anger C ．delight D ．pleasure 17．A ．called B ．looked C ．headed D ．handed 18．A ．smarter B ．better C ．warmer D ．stronger 19．A ．live B ．press C ．focus D ．count 20．A ．make B ．turn C ．point D ．bring 二、阅读理解I am Henry Jekyll. I was born in the 1 800s. I inherited(继承) a large fortune, a healthy body and an excellent mind. I was naturally hard-working and soon I was very successful in my job. So the outside world saw a serious, hard-working, successful doctor. Behind this quiet character, however, was a wild, fun-loving, irresponsible young man. Both of them were me. They lived together in the same body.“Was it possible," I wondered, “to find a drug that could give each side of my character its own separate face and body?"此卷只装订不密封班级 姓名 准考证号 考场号 座位号After much thought and careful study I believed I had found the answer. I had read many scientific books and spent many hours in my laboratory, searching for the right mixture of chemicals to make my drug. At last I got everything ready.Late one night, I mixed everything together and prepared my drug. I watched the smoke rising from the liquid as its color changed from red to purple and at last to green. Then, bravely, I drank every bitter drop.I felt a violent sickness in my stomach and a terrible pain in all my bones. The room seemed to turn round and round and I trembled with fear. Then the fear and pain disappeared and a strange, sweet feeling took its place. Wild thoughts danced through my mind- the wild passions of an evil and cruel stranger. But inside myself I felt younger, light er, more carefree than ever before. "If this is pure evil," I thought, “I like it.”I stood there, enjoying these strange new thoughts and passions and suddenly realized that I was shorter. So I decided to go to my bedroom in my new body and take a look at myself in the mirror there. As I came into my room, I saw Edward Hyde for the first time.At that time, the good side of my character was stronger than the evil side. Henry Jekyll had his faults, but he was mostly a good, kind man. I believe that is the reason why Edward Hyde was so much smaller than Henry Jekyll. But that was not the only difference between the two men. Henry Jekyll had a kind, open, honest face. But pure evil stared out of Edward Hyde's eyes. I felt no dislike, however. Indeed, I welcomed him. Edward Hyde was me, young and strong and full of life.21．In others' eyes, the writer was _____________.A．wild and successful B．fun-loving and responsibleC．serious and hard-working D．quiet and irresponsible22．The writer wanted to find a drug to _____________.A．discover the right mixture of chemicalsB．observe the change of the chemicalsC．create separate bodies for both sidesD．make himself smaller but stronger23．From the passage we can learn that the writer _____________.A．was satisfied with both of his bodiesB．preferred kind Henry to pure evil EdwardC．was very sick of the shorter Edward HydeD．felt quite delighted right after taking the drugEnvelope BudgetFrom McDonald's to Sonic, fast food had a bad effect on my waistline and my budget. It was nothing to run to a drive-through to pick up a cold drink or a quick bite to eat. It was so easy to use my card for a small purchase. For me, I got a lot of satisfaction from fast food.One day I sat down and calculated that I was spending a surprising $40 a week on fast food. This was a lot of iced coffee and hamburgers! Instead of reducing my guilty pleasures, I decided to give myself a strong budget to reduce my consumption. Every Monday I placed an envelope with $20 in my purse. That was my fast food budget for the entire week. If there was anything left over at the end of the week, it was mine to save or spend. If I spent all of the money during the week, there were no more fast food stops that week.The budget made me more mindful of my purchases. Instead of purchasing a large drink from Sonic, I would purchase a small. It was sill satisfying but not nearly as pricey. Instead of eating a whole meal, I would pick the part that I actually wanted. Many days, the thought of hanging onto the money for a special purpose meant more to me than the instant satisfaction of fast food. I never really felt unhappy because it was a conscious choice to spend or save with each purchase.Envelope budget kept me honest. I had a clear idea how much money was spent each week on fast food purchases. I started to bring my lunches more often to save more money for the week. It was a fun challenge to see how much I could save every week.Changing the way I spent on fast food not only helped my budget, but improved my weight. In the first month I was able to get rid of 5 pounds by simply changing the way I approached spending on fast food. Now I am more likely to bring my lunch than to buy it. I am not upset, but empowered to make positive choices to improve my life.24．According to Paragraph 1, the author _____________.A．was fond of fast food very muchB．had no time to cook for herselfC．lived with a small amount of moneyD．got some benefits from using her card25．The author set her envelope budget to _____________.A．buy fast food at a good bargainB．save money to buy more fast foodC．get rid of the habit of eating fast foodD．make fast food spending under control26．We can infer from the last paragraph that _____________.A．it is unusual to make some changesB．the budget means a pressure on lifeC．envelope budget is good for healthD．it is hard to enjoy a healthy lifestyle27．What is the passage mainly about?A．Why the author became addicted to fast food.B．How envelope budget changed the author's life.C．How fast food controlled the author's behavior.D．Why the author took envelope budget seriously.Senses That Work TogetherWhen we think about how our senses work, we usually imagine them operating separately: you sniff a flower, and the smell is delivered uninterrupted from nose to brain. However, it's more complex than that. Most evidence for cross modal perception (知觉) comes from studies into sound and vision (视觉). But research that shows other senses crossing over is coming out all the time, and it seems that even sound and smell sometimes form an unlikely pairing.When New York researchers, Daniel Wesson and Donald Wilson, tried to find out the truth about a "mysterious” area of the brain called the olfactory tubercle, they had to deal with this fact. Originally, they only intended to measure how olfactory tubercle cells in mice responded to smell. But during testing, Wesson noticed that every time he put his coffee cup down, the mouse cells jumped in activity. In fact, the olfactory tubercle is well-placed to receive both smell and sound information from the outside world. Later they found that among separate cells, most responded to a smell but a significant number were also active when a sound was made. Some cells even behaved differently when smell and sound were presented together, by increasing or decreasing their activity.Of course, mice aren't people, so research team has been carrying out further experiments. They pulled together a group of people and gave them various drinks to smell. Participants were asked to sniff the drinks, and then match them to appropriate musical instruments and produce the notes at different levels. The results were interesting: piano was regularly paired with fruity fragrances; strong smells sounded like the instruments that are made of metal.Further research found that listening to different sounds can change your perceptions. Studying taste this time, the team ordered some special toffee (太妃糖) and put together “soundscapes” corresponding to bitterness and sweetness. Participants tasted similar pieces of toffee while listening to each soundscape, and found the toffee more bitter or sweeter, depending on which soundrack they were listening to.Studies like this are helping scientists correctly describe our understanding of the senses, and how the brain combines them with its advantage. The consequences are worth considering. Could we see musicians work together with chefs to produce sound-improved food and drink? Will you be ordering a coffee with a soundrack to bring out your favorite smell? Come to think of it, that could be one thing you hope coffee shop chains don’t get round to.28．What does the underlined part in Paragraph 2 refer to?A．A lot of research focuses on the senses.B．There can be a link between sound and smell.C．Sound and vision are relatively easy to study.D．Evidence about the way senses work is hard to obtain.29．In Wesson and Wilson's research,__________.A．the mice were affected more significantly by soundB．the result confirmed what the researchers had suspectedC．the connection between sound and smell was found by chanceD．the mice seemed to be afraid of certain sounds or smells30．What is the main idea of Paragraph 3?A．Participants took an active part in the experiments.B．The purpose of the further experiments was totally different.C．The result failed to support what was found in previous experiments.D．Experiments showed that links between sound and smell were consistent.31．How does the author feel about the effect of the research?A．She is surprised at the recent developments.B．She is excited about the creative chances.C．She is convinced that the findings will be used soon.D．She is worried about how the knowledge can be applied.Work and the Young: Generation Jobless“YOUNG people ought not to be idl e (闲置的) . It is very bad for them," said MargaretThatcher in 1984. She was right: there are few worse things that society can do to its young than to leave them ignored.Yet more young people are idle than ever. The International Labour Organization reports that 75m (m=million) young people globally are looking for a job. World Bank surveys suggest that 262m young people are economically inactive. The number of young people without a job is nearly as large as the population of America (311m).Two factors play a big part. First, the long slowdown in the West has reduced demand for labour, and it is easier to put off hiring young people than it is to fire older workers. Second, inemerging economies population growth is the fastest in countries with disordered labour markets, such as India and Egypt.One possible way to settle this problem is to stimulate growth. That is easier said than done in a world suffering from debt, and is anyway a possible answer. The countries where the problem is worst (such as Spain and Egypt) suffered from high youth unemployment even when their economies were growing. Throughout the recession ( 经济不景气)，companies have continued to complain that they cannot find young people with the right skills. This underlines the importance of two other solutions: reforming labour markets and improving education.Youth unemployment is often at its worst in countries with inflexible labour markets. High taxes on hiring, strict rules about firing, high minimum wages: all these help force young people to the street corner. South Africa has some of the highest unemployment, in part because it has powerful trade unions and inflexible rules about hiring and firing. Many countries with high youth unemployment rate have high minimum wages and heavy taxes on labour. India has around 200 laws on work and pay.Across the OECD (经合组织) , people who left school at the earliest opportunity are twice as likely to be unemployed as university graduates. But it is unwise to conclude that governments should simply continue increasing the number of people who graduate from university. In both Britain and the United States many people with arts degrees are finding it impossible to get appropriate jobs. In North Africa university graduates are twice as likely to be unemployed as non-graduates.What matters is not just number of years of education people get, but its content. This means expanding the study of science and technology and closing the gap between the world of education and the world of work-for example by upgrading vocational education and by building closer relations between companies and schools. Germany, which has the second lowest level of youth unemployment in the rich world, owns long-history system of vocational schooling and apprenticeships (学徒制).The problem of youth unemployment has been getting worse for several years. But there are at last some reasons for hope. Governments are trying to address the mismatch between education and the labour market. Companies are beginning to take more responsibility for the young. The world has a real chance of introducing an education-and-training revolution worthy of the solution to the problem.32．According to the passage, which of the following statements may the author approve of ?A．A flexible labour market is not enough to raise youth employment.B．As long as the economy grows youth unemployment will soon be settled.C．Firms fire more older workers than the young in the economic slowdown.D．Powerful trade unions and high minimum wages lead to high employment.33．The author mentioned the German's education system in order to show_____________.A．rich countries are responsible for high youth unemploymentB．the problem of youth unemployment has been settledC．companies have more responsibilities to settle youth unemploymentD．the match between education and the labour market can reduce youth unemployment34．What does the underlined phrase "vocational education” mean in Para.7 ?A．Technical trainingB．Higher educationC．Moral educationD．Business courses35．The passage mainly talks about _____________.A．the need for labour market revolutionB．possible ways to settle global youth unemploymentC．the relations between education and employmentD．factors contributing to low youth unemployment第II卷（非选择题）三、其他36．Parties at Bruno's house were always dominated by Grandmother's singing, which for some reason always seemed to ___________ the moment when Mother moved from the main party area to the kitchen, followed by some of her own friends.A．put up with B．coincide withC．come up with D．contradict37．However, Mother and Father's voices were muffled and hard to___________, Grandfather's was not to be heard at all, while grandmother's was surprisingly blurred.A．comment on B．make senseC．make out D．weigh up38．The pyjama people all jumped to attention whenever the soldiers ___________ and sometimes they fell to the ground and sometimes they didn't even get up and had to be carried away instead.A．assumed B．salutedC．vanished D．approached39．"Poland,' said Bruno thoughtfully, ___________ the word on his tongue.A．weighing up B．making up forC．insisting D．winding up40．An hour before the Fury ___________ Gretel and Bruno were brought downstairs, where they received a rare invitation into Father's office.A．soaked up the applause of the guests B．showed offC．erupted in excitement D．was due to arrive41．Shmuel watched him do this and ___________ nervously.

"In the TV business you see the best and the worst the world has to offer, and at some point, it just occurred to me: I just need to do something to make the world a better place," he explained.He now travels the world, volunteering his time to help others. "Here's the best part about a volunteer vacation. You're not stuck at a hotel doing tours that everyone else does," Germaise said. "You're meeting regular people, living with regular people and helping regular people all over the world. "Travel Writer Joe Miragliotta says that's exactly why more people are spending time volunteering on vacation. "Travelers, especially millennials (千禧一代) like myself, are becoming more socially conscious whenit comes to choosing where they go," Miragliotta said. "They want to connect with the communities and causes they really care about. "He recently took some time out of a trip to San Francisco to help out at a local farm. "Here, volunteers are growing healthy foods for the community, and they give it right back for free; and you know you can tend the vegetable gardens, help clean the orchard﹣lots of fun activities," Miragliotta explained.V olunteering doesn't take up your entire vacation. You can do it for a few hours or even a few days. It's all up to you. "With a kid…when you do something as simple as giving him or her a pencil when they never had a pencil for school, the look in their eyes is so unbelievable," Germaise said. "It's like they got an iPad for Christmas. It's the greatest feeling in the world."（1）What do vacations mean to Don Germaise？A．Having a rest and relaxing.B．Getting an opportunity to travel.C．Meeting and helping regular people.D．Reporting on what happens around the world.（2）According to Joe Miragliotta, young people .A．are becoming more socially consciousB．find it fun to help in vegetable gardensC．enjoy taking care of the children aroundD．are trying to learn more about other people（3）What can be inferred from the last paragraph？A．It only takes travelers a few hours to do volunteering.B．Finding a way to help the people in need is not easy.C．It is impossible for the kids to get an iPad for Christmas.D．Making a small difference to people's life is rewarding.（4）What's the passage mainly about？A．Millennials pay more attention to society.B．V olunteer vacation is becoming a new trend.C．Two travelers shared their experiences abroad.D．V olunteers enjoy popularity among local people.7．阅读理解Georiga O'Keeffe always thought of herself as an artist. By 1928, the rest of the world did, too. At the age of 41 she was living in New York City and becoming a well﹣known painter. Still, O'Keeffe wasn't happy. New York had been a good source of ideas for almost ten years. Now those ideas were drying up. O'Keeffe felt like she needed a change. She had visited New Mexico in 1917 with her sister. The wide open space had thrilled her. "Maybe I should go back," she thought. In April of 1929, O'Keeffe packed her bags.The wide open space of New Mexico drew O'Keeffe in. She spent hours just watching the sky change. Because the light was so clear, she felt like she could see for the first time. The beauty of the land renewed her. She couldn't wait to start painting. Cow and horse skulls and desert flowers filled her canvases (画布). The colors of the desert inspired O'Keeffe. As a result, she made new choices in her artwork. "The color up there is different," she explained. She loved the dusty blues and greens.That August, O'Keeffe went home to New York. It was the start of a pattern. Each spring, she traveled to New Mexico to paint. These trips restored her spirit. Then, in the fall, she would return to New York. There, she showed her work. Each time O'Keeffe visited New Mexico, she explored a little more.The bleached animal bones and skulls that O'Keeffe found excited her because she could see their special beauty. The bones didn't mean death to O'Keeffe. To her, they showed the lasting beauty of the desert. The landscapes, clear light, and bright colors also spoke to her. She often painted close﹣ups of the rocks and mountains. Later, she began to travel more in search of new ideas. However, she always came back to New Mexico.As O'Keeffe grew older, her eyesight began to fail. Still, O'Keeffe wasn't ready to give up. Her friend Juan Hamilton helped her work with watercolors. He also taught her to sculpt. As a result, she made art into her 90s. When she died at the age of 98, Hamilton sprinkled her ashes over the desert. Her body became part of the land that had touched her art and her life.（1）O'Keeffe was unhappy in New York in 1928 because .A．she was lack of the creative ideasB．she felt disappointed about her jobC．she was not successful as an artistD．she felt bored about life in a big city（2）After her trips to New Mexico, O'Keeffe .A．received great reputation thereB．discovered the meaning in her lifeC．chose to settle down in that countryD．got new thoughts from the scenery（3）What can we know about O'Keeffe from the passage？A．She was never afraid of failure and death.B．She was devoted and passionate about art.C．She was patient with the coming chances.D．She was curious about the nature of people.（4）Which of the following could be the best title for this article？A．Lifestyle in the Desert B．Special Love for ArtC．Inspiration from the Desert D．Modern Women Artists8．阅读理解"You'll get square eyes!" my mother used to say as I sat for hour after hour glued to the TV. I ignored her, of course. Past﹣forward a few decades and now I'm the parent. My 5﹣year﹣old lives in a world where screens aren't fixed pieces of furniture. You can't even avoid them by going outside. Screens are not only in our pockets; they're everywhere.The concerns have grown with the screens. In the past decade, we have heard that they will damage our mental health. Many of us feel more distracted by them, feeling guiltier and more tired as a result.The apps and websites we can access on our phones have also sparked widespread concern. Big tech companies are also good at making use of our need for social recognition, hooking us on likes, retweets and follower counts. Social media has created a culture of mass narcissism (自恋), which has led many to worry about the emotional stresses on teenagers. A quick online search brings up dozens of papers linking screen use or social media with harmful effects on mental health, including depression and suicide.Such statements are alarming. They are also widely believed, thanks to popular books like iGen by Jean Twenge, which claims that digital technology has ruined a generation. Yet, Amy Orben at the University of Oxford, who studies the impact of digital technology and social media in particular on mental health, holds different views. She claims that the underlying data can be used to tell different stories. She also spotted shortcomings in several large studies that claimed to show correlations (相关性) between the use of devices with screens and depression in users.Twenge stands by her own finding, pointing in turn to what she considers flaws in Orben's research methods. For David Max, at Royal College of Child Health in London, the effect of screen time and social media use on mental health remains speculative. "We cannot regard social media overall as good or bad," says Davie. "We don't know whether in individual cases social media is not responsible," he says.The explosion of mobile phone use has revolutionized our lives. I can download movies, write articles, communicate with my family and broadcast to the world all at the push of a button. Rather than impose constraints (限制), we should take a look at our use of screens and ask how they fit with the activities and lifestyle.Every new technology with widespread impact has given rise to new fears. So the best bet may simply be to ask yourself what level of screen use makes you and those around you happy and try to stick to it. If you find yourself over addictive, don't panic﹣and certainly don't feel guilty. Nobody knows anything worth getting scared about.（1）According to the passage, people give likes, retweet or count followers to .A．share one's lifestyles B．show respect for othersC．seek social recognition D．relieve emotional stresses（2）The underlined word "speculative" probably means " ".A．doubtful B．specific C．important D．abstract（3）What can be learned from the passage？A．Teenagers are more affected by screen use both physically and mentally.B．Orben claims it is far too early to blame screen use for ruining a generation.C．Big tech companies help to produce many research papers on mental health.D．Twenge mainly introduces the overall benefits of digital technology in her books.（4）The passage is written to .A．encourage readers to reduce the time of screen useB．share different opinions on the effects of screen useC．explain why screen use may have negative effects on peopleD．relieve people's concerns and worries about the use of screens1小题；每小题8分，共8分）9．阅读下面的短文，根据短文内容回答问题.Go, commonly known in China as weiqi, is a board game for two players that needs logical (逻辑的) strategies. To win, the player must use black and white playing pieces to surround more field than the other player. The game was invented in China more than 2,500 years ago. It enjoys a wide fan base, mostly in East Asia ﹣but it is becoming more popular in other areas of the world.Schreiber, vice chair of Berlin Go Association, was introduced to the game 16 years ago, but thought the game rather boring at first. Similarly, Urban, chair of Berlin Go Association, accidentally discovered a book on Go on his mother's bookshelf when he was 37 years old. "I tried to understand the rules because I love board games and I did not get it," added Urban. But they both found the game more and more interesting after practice. "It's like speaking to another but with your hands. You make a very direct message," explained Schreiber.Schreiber recommended children learn Go because he believed it could be beneficial for them. "They learn that there is always someone stronger and they learn that it's okay to lose. They learn how to improve from their mistakes and say tomorrow will be better than today," he explained.To the experienced players, Go can be very addictive, as it carries meanings not just in leisure, but also in culture. Many are too quick to judge other people's cultures. Confucius said, "Tell me, I'll forget；Show me, I may remember；Involve me, and I will understand. " With Go, people only get stronger if they play against different players. With culture, one need ot go and talk to people, even better if in their language. If you can't, maybe it's enough to use the Go board as the language.As cooperation between China and Germany deepens in many aspects of life, efforts have been made to further popularize Go in Europe. The European. Go Congress has been hosting annual competitions since 1983. Training courses are also offered, and professional players from China are invited to deliver lectures for game loves in Europe.（1）When was Go invented in China？（2）How did Schreiber and Urban feel about Go after practice？（3）Why did Schreiber recommend children learn Go？（4）What has happened as a cooperation between China and Germany deepens？答案解析部分1．【答案】sang；were joined；touching【知识点】语法填空【解析】【分析】本文是一篇记叙文，讲述了国庆70周年青少年唱起《我和我的祖国》，令人感动的一幕。

It often means choosing one from many possibilities. You should always remember that your spare time is very important. It’s the time to exercise our bodies and relax our brains from the work we do at school.Most of us have some sports we like to do — there are so many activities to select from. Sometimes what we decide to do depends on what the weather is lik e. For example, if it’s very cold outside and we don’t like ice skating or skiing, then we should try to find some indoor activities, such as playing basketball or training in the gym.Not all our activities have to be physical. Going to the movies, doing some reading and visiting a museum are helpful activities that don’t need a lot of physical movements. Besides, spending time with your friends is also a good way to relax and have fun at the same time.All in all, we should try to find a balance between work and play, so we don’t get bored with doing the same thing all the time. Enjoy being outdoors, enjoy being with friends, and enjoy reading something for fun. If we do these things, we’ll grow to be healthy both in our bodies and in our mind.评分标准：1. 单词拼写正确计1分，拼写不正确不得分；2. 每空只填写一个词，多于一个词不得分。

She noticed that the woman asked the mon for the direction. He told her that he did not know. Galaxy decided to help them. She had learned the sign language when she served as a volunteer in the deaf and mute（聋哑）school. Then she showed the woman the direction and left her email address to them in case they needed her help later.She received an email from that man the next day. Kazrim was his name. Galaxy replied his mail sincerely. They both started chatting online soon after and began seeing each other. Although they only communicated with the sign language, it never bothered her.Galaxy was fond of him gradually. Obviously, Kazrim was the same too. He presented Galaxy with a bunch of sunflowers and asked her sincerely, “Are you willing to be my girlfriend?” Galaxy was pleasantly surprised. She requested him to give her some time to persuade her parents.As she had expected, her parents were very angry after they had learned of their love story. Galaxy explained, “Kazrim is an excellent and a very optimistic person. He has a very positive attitude towards life and work. He cares for others always. He is 100％better than the normal. Moreover, the mute is still a human. He should possess a perfect and wonderful love. ”Her parents asked to see him, then. The very worried Galaxy took Kazrim home a few days later. When they were on the train, Kazrim told her, ‘‘I’m going to tell your parents I’ll be looking after you well with all my life!” Galaxy was deeply moved.As soon as they had entered the house, Galaxy introduced him to her parents. She said, ‘‘This is Kazrim.” Just rig ht after her speech, an unbelievable thing happened. Kazrim threw the gift away and held her in his arms tightly.He said, “YOU CAN TALK?” It was the same question that Galaxy wanted to ask, too.The four people were shocked all of a sudden. As a matter of fact, Kazrim always believed that Galaxy was a mute and he still fell in love with her deeply.44．How did Galaxy and Kazrim get to know each other?A．They met each other by chance.B．They were introduced to each other,C．They once studied at the same university.D．They both served in a special needs school.45．How did Galaxy probably communicate with Kazrim before she took him home?A．Writing words on paper.B．Using the sign language.C．Judging from his expression.D．Speaking her native language.46．What did Galaxy expect her parents to do?A．To have a talk with Kazri.B．To prepare for her marriage.C．To treat Kazrim as a normal man.D．To accept Kazrim as her boyfriend.47．What can we learn about the two young people from the passage?A．They fell in love at the first sight.B．They cheated each other to win love.C．They mistook each other for being mutes.D．They ignored the anger of Galaxy’s parents.Model RailroadingWould you like to know a fun way to learn about math? Well, you can do that with model railroading. Yes, it’s true. You can learn about many school topics without using a school book. Besides that, there are many other benefits that model railroading brings us as well. In this article, we will discuss just a few of those benefits of model railroading.Patience and problem solving skillsWhen you build a model railroad, you have to plan your railroad out. You have to decide where the tracks (轨道) will go, where to put buildings, where to put streets and any other things you would like to add to your model railroad. Also, you have to think about any problems you may have with the design you choose. How will you make railroad crossings? How will you design hills, mountains, and rivers? Deciding on what to do with your model railroad takes a lot of thought and patience, but it is not as difficult as you may think.Building skillsWith model railroading, you learn how to put together plastic models of buildings. Also, you can learn how to build a table for your design, or make scenery for the geography of your design. Your model railroad runs on electricity, so you learn about electronics as well. These are skills that not only help you build a model railroad; these skills will help you all throughout life.Fun for family and friendsDifferent from many video games, model railroading is a social hobby that lets you communicate with family and friends. This is because you have to communicate with family and friends as you build and run your model railroad. By spending time with the people in your life you love and care about, you learn to become closer and care more for each other. This is one of the best parts of model railroading as a hobby. Of course, the best part about model railroading is running the trains. Watching the trains run around the track and make all the sounds and do all the things that real trains do gives people hours of enjoyment. Also, there is great satisfaction in the fact that you, your family, and your friends built the model railroad.I hope you can learn to enjoy model railroading and experience all the benefits you just read about and many others. Happy railroading!48．In order to build a model railroad, you have to be ________.A．skillful and confidentB．an electrical engineerC．thoughtful and patientD．an expert in geography49．What is the best part of model railroading?A．Running the trains.B．Planning out the railroad.C．Putting streets and buildings.D．Learning electronics and wiring.50．According to the author, model railroading is a social hobby, because ________.A．it encourages us to complete it on our ownB．it improves the problem solving skills and creativityC．it brings us hours of enjoyment and great satisfactionD．it offers us chances to communicate with family and friends51．Where can you probably find the article?A．In an official report.B．In a youth magazine.C．In a medical textbook.D．In a tourist guidebook.Are some people born clever, and others born stupid? Or is intelligence developed by our environment and our experiences? Strangely enough, the answer to both these questions is yes. To some degree our intelligence is given us at birth, and no amount of special education can make a genius out of a child born with low intelligence. On the other hand, a child who lives in a boring environment will develop his intelligence less than one who lives in rich and variedsurroundings. Thus the limits of a person's intelligence are fixed at birth, but whether or not he reaches those limits will depend on his environment. This view, now held by most experts, can be supported in a number of ways.It is easy to show that intelligence is to some degree something we are born with. The closer the blood relationship between two people, the closer they are likely to be in intelligence. Thus if we take two unrelated people at random(随机地) from the population, it is likely that their degrees of intelligence will be completely different. If on the other hand we take two identical (完全相同的) twins they will very likely be as intelligent as each other. Relations like brothers and sisters, parents and children, usually have similar intelligence, and this clearly suggests that intelligence depends on birth.Imagine now that we take two identical twins and put them in different environments. We might send one, for example, to a university and the other to a factory where the work is boring. We would soon find differences in intelligence developing, and this indicates that environment as well as birth plays a part. This conclusion is also suggested by the fact that people who live in close contact with each other, but who are not related at all, are likely to have similar degrees of intelligence.52．Which of these sentences best describes the writer’s point in Para. 1?A．To some degree, intelligence is given at birth.B．Intelligence is developed by the environment.C．Some people are born clever and others born stupid.D．Intelligence is fixed at birth, but is developed by the environment.53．It is suggested in this passage that_______.of intelligenceA．unrelated people are not likely to have different intelligenceB．close relations usually have similar intelligenceC．the closer the blood relationship between people, the more different they are likely to be in intelligenceD．people who live in close contact with each other are not likely to have similar degrees54．In Para. 1, the word "surroundings" means_______.A．intelligence B．life C．environments D．housing55．The best title for this article would be_______.A．On Intelligence B．What Intelligence MeansC．We are Born with Intelligence D．Environment Plays a Part in Developing Intelligence 四、七选五How to Beat the Procrastination HabitI am a procrastinator (拖延症患者). I always have been. I've tried all sorts of things to beat the habit. Here are some techniques I've been using:Set aside blocks of time to do things.When I was talking with my wellness (健身) coach earlier this year, she asked me why I didn't exercise more often. " 56．," I said. "Something always comes up." She wasn't impressed. "J.D.," she said, "You have to make time. Make an appointment with yourself to run or to go for a bike ride." The same principle applies to other things you might procrastinate.57．. Often I'll be sitting on the back porch reading a book, and it will occur to me that some chore needs to be done －mending the fence, for example. "58．," I tell myself. Wrong! What usually happens is that I forget to write it down, and even if I do, I just look at the list and procrastinate for weeks on end. Thebest move is to actually do the chore when I think of it. (Assuming, of course, that I have the time at that moment, which I usually do.)Use a timer to bring you back to reality.Part of the reason I procrastinate is that I'm a daydreamer. 59．. One way to keep on track is to use a timer. I use the Ultrak Jumbo Countdown Timer, but not as often as I should. I set it for 48 minutes. When it goes off, 60．：Am I doing what I'm supposed to be doing?Do not multitask.I often start many things at once, but I never actually do any of them. In order for me to get something done, I need to focus my attention on it. Trying to do several things at once is a sure way to be sure they'll all be unfinished tomorrow.A．I'm always lost in thoughtB．it brings me back to realityC．If it comes to mind, then do itD．I don't have the timeE. it serves as an instant reality checkF. Do it right away if you are asked to do somethingG. I need to write that down so I can remember it第II卷（非选择题）五、用适当的词完成句子根据句意，选择适当的词并用其正确的形式填空，有两个词为多余选项。
