A“People are ruder today because they are rushed and more ‘time poor’ than ever before，” says Patsy Rowe, “Manners_have_fallen_off_the_radar(雷达)．” Due to our strong attraction to electronic equipment it is a wonder more people don't wake up each morning and greet the singing birds with a complaint(抱怨)about the noise. Here are some examples of rudeness.Some people prefer to do almost everything over the Internet. To them, dealing with an actual human is like an evolutionary step backward. It feels very slow because humans don't work at 4G speeds. When you have dinner with friends, you will often notice someone paying more attention to his mobile phone. We have programmed ourselves to think that every new message brings life－changing news, so taking calls and checking our texts are more important than talking to the people we are with. What is worse, some people even tend to send anonymous(匿名的) rude messages by email.However, rudeness is never acceptable. Don't assume it is OK to be rude if the person you're in touch with won't recognize you. If you have something awful to say, have the courage to face the person and say it, write a letter or email and sign it, or forget it. Upsetting people with unsigned messages is cruel and disgusting.We shouldn't blame technology for our shortcomings.Technology is here to help us，but we should not allow it to take over our lives. An important step is acknowledging our shortcomings.People spend a lot of time pointing out bad manners but it would be even more helpful if we'd publicly acknowledge good manners when we see them.1．What can be inferred from the underlined sentence in Paragraph 1?A．People can tell good from bad behavior.B．Radar is able to observe human behavior.C．People care little about their behavior.D．Radar can be used to predict human behavior.2．The author thinks sending unsigned awful messages is ________．A．ridiculous B．disgustingC．acceptable D．reasonable3．What can we learn from the last paragraph?A．We should applaud good behavior.B．Technology can never be blamed.C．We should keep pointing out mistakes.D．Technology will take over our lives one day.BWhat makes a gift special？Is it the price you see on the gift receipt？Or is it the look on the recipient's face when they receive it that determines the true value？What gift is worth the most?This Christmas I was debating what to give my father.My dad is a hard person to buy for because he never wants anything.I pulled out my phone to read a text message from my mom saying that we were leaving for Christmas shopping for him when I came across a message on my phone that I had locked.The message was from my father.My eyes fell on a photo of a flower taken in Wyoming，and underneath a poem by William Blake.The flower，a lone dandelion standing against the bright blue sky，inspired me.My dad had been reciting those words to me since I was a kid.That may even be the reason why I love writing.I decided that those words would be my gift to my father.I called back.I told my mom to go without me and that I already created my gift.I sent the photo of the cream-colored flower to my computer and typed the poem on top of it.As I was arranging the details another poem came to mind.The poem was written by Edgar Allan Poe；my dad recited it as much as he did the other.I typed that out as well and searched online for a background to the words of it.The poem was focused around dreaming，and after searching I found the perfect picture.The image was painted with blues and greens and purples，twisting together to create the theme and wonder of a dream.As I watched both poems passing through the printer，the white paper coloring with words that shaped my childhood.I felt that this was a gift that my father would truly appreciate.Christmas soon arrived.The minute I saw the look on my dad's face as he unwrapped those swirling black letters carefully placed in a cheap frame，I knew I had given the perfect gift.4．The idea for a special gift began to form when the author was ______.A．doing shopping B．having a debateC．reading a message D．leaving for Wyoming5．The author's inspiration for the gift came from ______.A．a photo of a flowerB．a story about a kidC．a call from the motherD．a text about Christmas6．The author made the gift by ______.A．searching for the poems onlineB．drawing the background by handC．painting the letters in three colorsD．matching the words with picturesCI promised Michael I wouldn’t mention t his until the season was over．Now l think it's time．Early last season, I wrote a column about an art of kindness I had seen Jordan do to a disabled child outside the stadium．After it ran，I got a call from a man in the western suburbs．He said，“I read w hat you wrote about Jordan．but I thought I should tell you another thing I saw．”Here it comes, I thought. It always does. Write something nice about a person, and people call you up to say that the person is not so nice.A few weeks later Jordan and I were talking about something else before a game, and I brought up what the man had said. Was the man right? Had Jordan really been talking to those two boys in that poor and dirty neighborhood?"Not two boys," Jordan said. "But four."And he named them. He said four names. And what did they talk about?"Everything,” Jordan said. " Anything. I’ve asked to see their grades so that I can check to see if they're paying attention to their study. If it turns out that one or two of them may need teaching, I make sure they get it."It's just one more part of Michael Jordan's life，one more thing that no one knows about, and one more thing Jordan does fight for. The NBA season is over now, and those boys have their memories. So do J! When the expert reviewers begin to turn against Jordan as they surely will, I'll think about those boys under the streetlight, waiting for the man they know to come. For someone they can depend on.7. The writer wrote this story about Jordan and his young friends because _______A. he thought highly of Jordan's deedsB. he hated to see Jordan do something badC. he believed it was time to help the disabledD. he felt sure he needn't keep the promise then8. A man in the western suburbs made a call to_______A. know why Jordan stopped in a bad areaB. get a chance to become famous himselfC. let the writer know Jordan was not that niceD. offer an example to show how Jordan helped others9. Jordan talked with the boys because he _______.A. needed their supportB. had promised to do soC. liked to teach them to play basketballD. wanted to make sure they all studied well10. The text implies that Jordan is _______.A. an excellent basketball playerB. good at dealing with problems of lifeC. always ready to make friends with young peopleD. willing to do whatever he can for the good of society 第二部分完形填空（共20小题；每小题1.5分；满分30分）When I was a teenager I volunteered to work at the water station at a 10,000m race.

The purpose of this unusual move is, according to the city council, to discourage night gathering in downtown areas.The law inevitably has given rise to a number of protests, accusing that the government has ___43___ people’s normal lives. However, if you take into consideration the country’s ___44___ economy and its high unemployment rate, the local government’s fear of ‘night assembling’may be reasonable.In fact, Milan’s law is only the strangest of a host of restrictions on nightlife that have ___45___ up in European cities recently. Madrid’s citycenter was declared a ‘low-noise zone’ last September and the city council has been refusing to ___46___ bar and club licenses ever since.Why do European cities deal so strictly with nightlife?

Reading prehension(47%)Section ADirections:For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A, B, C and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.Many of us have characteristics that are inherited from our families. Maybewe have our father’s eyes or our grandmother’s hair color – __51__ features that result from the genes we inherit. But there are other elements of our personalities such as behaviors and viewpoints that we pick up by __52__ our parents. Perhaps we have picked up our mother’s love of cleaning or our dad’s sense of humor. Now, researchers at the University of Michigan believe there may be a specific viewpoint we can thank our parents for: the way we __53__ work.The researchers referred to previous studies that identified three main ways of viewing work.First, there are job-oriented (以求职为目的的)people, those who __54__ to see their job as simply a way to make money. They __55__ to clocking out（打卡下班）every day and pursuing fun activities __56__ the office. If you have a job-oriented father, you may view work this way. __57__, if you grew up close to your mother you probably will not hold this viewpoint. One possible __58__ cited by the study: Youngsters that grow up close to their mothers are less likely to view work as just a job.Second, there are career-oriented（追求事业型的）people who see their job as a place to find __59__ and gain a sense of __60__. These are the people who don’t __61__ working overtime. In fact, some people love their jobs so much that they bee workaholics! They are more fortable in the office than at home. According tothe study, being close to a career- oriented father while growing up means there’s a good chance you’ll share his perspective. Oddly, having a mother with this viewpoint seems to have little __62__.Third, there are calling-oriented workers – folks who view their job as a way to make a (n) __63__ impact upon the world. They are more __64__ with improving the world around them than earning a large salary. In the study, those who expressed a strong calling (天职)orientation came from homes where both parents were calling-oriented. This suggests that adolescents need the support of both parents in order to have the confidence to put __65__ first and career success second.The good news is –we still have choice. Whether we share our parents’views of work or not, we can still find a career that suits us.51. A. medical B. physical C. biological D. mental52.

They are eating pizza, chicken wings and chips and cheering every move. They’re watching the Super Bowl.Why are Americans so crazy about American football?

Then that team may win the game unexpectedly.The Super Bowl also entertains its audience with a great halftime show. The football field is turned into a stage. Then an impressive performance of dancing and singing with special effects occurs.Since the Super Bowl is the most-watched TV program in America, mercial airtime is also very expensive.

With all this ing and going, you’d expect greater understanding to develop between the nations of the world. Not a bit of it! Superb systems of munication by air, sea and land make it possible for us to visit each other ’s countries at a moderate cost. What was once the ‘grand tour ’, reserved for only the very rich, is now within everybody ’s grasp? The package tour and chartered flights are not to be sneered at. Modern travelers enjoy a level of fort which the lords and ladies on grand tours in the old days couldn’t have dreamed of. But what ’s the sense of this mass exchange of populations if the nations of the world remain basically ignorant of each other? Many tourist organizations are directly responsible for this state of affairs. They deliberately set out to protect their clients from too much contact with the local population. The modern tourist leads a cosseted, sheltered life. He lives at international hotels, where he eats his international food and sips his international drink while he gazes at the natives from a distance. Conducted tours to places of interest are carefully censored. The tourist is allowed to see only what the organizers want him to see and no more. A strict schedule makes itimpossible for the tourist to wander off on his own; and anyway, language is always a barrier, so he is only too happy to be protected in this way. At its very worst, this leads to a new and hideous kind of colonization. The summer quarters of the inhabitants of the cite universitaire: are temporarily reestablished on the island of Corfu. Blackpool is recreated at Torremolinos where the traveler goes not to eat paella, but fish and chips.The sad thing about this situation is that it leads to the persistence of national stereotypes. We don’t see the people of other nations as they really are, but as we have been brought up to believe they are. You can test this for yourself. Take five nationalities, say, French, German, English, American and Italian. Now in your mind, match them with these five adjectives: musical, amorous, cold, pedantic, native. Far from providing us with any insight into the national characteristics of the peoples just mentioned, these adjectives actually act as barriers. So when you set out on your travels, the only characteristics you notice are those which confirm your preconceptions. You e away with the highly unoriginal and inaccurate impression that, say, ‘Anglo-Saxons are hypocrites’ of that ‘Latin peoples shout a lot ’. You only have to make a few foreign friends to understand how absurd and harmful national stereotypes are. But how can you make foreign friends when the tourist trade does its best to prevent you?Carried to an extreme, stereotypes can be positively dangerous. Wild generalizations stir up racial hatred and blind us to the basic fact—how triteit sounds! – That all people are human. We are all similar to each other and atthe same time all unique.74.The passage mainly wants to tell us________A.tourism contributes nothing to increasing understanding between nations.B.Tourism is tiresome.C.Conducted tour is dull.D. tourism really does something to one’s country.75.What is the author's attitude toward tourism?A.apprehensive.B.negative.C.critical.D. appreciative.76.The word”cosseted” (para 2 line 3) probably means_____A.over-protectedB.variedC.limitedD.luxurious77.What is ‘grand tour’ now?A. moderate cost.B. local sight-seeing is investigated by the tourist organization.C.people enjoy the first-rate forts.D.everybody can enjoy the ‘grand tour’.Section CDirections: Read the passage carefully. Then answer the questions or plete the statements in the fewest possible words.Yes, but what did we use to do before there was television? How often we hear statements like this! Television hasn’t been with us all that long, but we are already beginning to forget what the world was like without it. Before we admitted the one-eyed monster into our homes, we never fond it difficult to occupy our spare time. We used to enjoy civilized pleasures. For instance, we used to have hobbies, we used to entertain our friends and be entertained by them, we used to go outside for our amusements to theatres, cinemas, restaurants and sporting events. We even used to read books and listen to music and broadcast talks occasionally. All that belongs to the past. Now all our free time is regulated by the goggle box. We rush home or gulp down our meals to be in time for this or that programme. We have even given up sitting at table and having a leisurely evening meal, exchanging the news of the day. A sandwich and a glass of beer will do – anything, providing it doesn’t interfere with the programme. The monster demands and obtains absolute silence and attention. If any member of the family dares to open his mouth during aprogramme, he is quickly silenced.Whole generations are growing up addicted to the telly. Food is left uneaten, homework undone and sleep is lost. The telly is a universal pacifier. It is now standard practice for mother to keep the children quiet by putting them in the living-room and turning on the set. It doesn’t matter that the children will watch rubbishy mercials or spectacles of sadism and violence – so long as they are quiet.There is a limit to the amount of creative talent available in the world. Every day, television consumes vast quantities of creative work. That is why most of the programmes are so bad: it is impossible to keep pace with the demand and maintain high standards as well. When millions watch the same programmes, the whole world bees a village, and society is reduced to the conditions which obtain in preliterate munities. We bee utterly dependent on the two most primitive media of munication: pictures and the spoken word.Television encourages passive enjoyment. We bee content with second-hand experiences. It is so easy to sit in our armchairs watching others working. Little by little, television cuts us off from the real world. We get so lazy, we choose to spend a fine day in semi-darkness, glued to our sets, rather than go out into the world itself. Television may be s splendid medium of munication, but itprevents us from municating with each other. We only bee aware how totally irrelevant television is to real living when we spend a holiday by the sea or in the mountains, far away from civilization. In quiet, natural surroundings, we quickly discover how little we miss the hypnotic tyranny of King Telly.78.What does a mother usually do to keep her children quiet?_______________________________________________________________________ ___79.what’s the author’s suggestion to forget TV?_________________________________________80.&81Please smmerize at least two harms of TV80.__________________________________________________________________________ __81.__________________________________________________________________________ __第II卷I.

The kind of help that museums can give to adults can equally well be given to children, and to teachers whose pupils have come to the museum for specific _____34_____ .At a time when the demand for public accountability has never been greater, it is worth remembering that many museums receive substantial grants towards what is supposed to be stimulating educational _____35_____ for the general public.Museums accepting these grants, yet offering little more than the_____ 36_____ public lecture, or very minimal help to schoolteacher arriving at the museum with their pupils, therefore risk having such financial support severely cut back, or even _____37_____.Why is this done? The idea is that museums should not simply be aiming to be popular and entertaining, they should also be truly _____38_____ learning environments. Given that this is their aim, they should not just spread facts and theories. They should show the visitor exactly what to do with the information provided. Isolated pieces of information, _____39_____ as they may be. do not encourage museum visitors to use their intelligence. For example, if told that some fleas can jump 130 times their own height, visitors simply have no idea of how to apply this _____40_____ unless they are clearly pointed in the right direction.III. Reading ComprehensionSection ADirections: For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A. B, C and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.At a time when scientists know more than they ever have before about the inner lives of animals and when concerns about animal rights become large—many experts think that zoos need a major change if they're going to last.To some leaders in the field, the Philadelphia Zoo is the best model out there, but on the other side of the country; a _____41_____ vision of the future is playing out. At Seattle's Woodland Park Zoo, the elephant exhibit, where countless children have watched elephants play, now sits _____42_____ . The zoo, long _____43_____ as a world leader in innovative design, built a $3 million state-of-the-art facility for the species in the 1980s. But in recent years, animal-rights advocates had criticized the exhibit as inhumane for being too small and not _____44_____ the elephants' natural living area. Under pressure from activists following the death of an elephant in 2014, and thanks to new guidelines from the nation's main zoo organization, Woodland Park officials decided to _____45_____ one of its most popular exhibits and place the elephants elsewhere.Nearly two centuries after the first modern zoo opened in London's Regent's Park, the very concept of a place where families can visit and observe animals is being _____46_____ like never before. Across the US and around the world, zoos are finding that balancing the demands of entertainment, education and conservation is increasingly _____47_____. Ethical(伦理的）concerns have been coupled with _____48_____ fears—both for people and for animals—following an incident in May when officials at the Cincinnati Zoo shot and killed a 17-year-old gorilla named Haram be to protect a child who'd fallen into the exhibit. More _____49_____, there's a greater sensitivity to the environmental implications of zoos.Ask a dozen zoo directors why these places should exist today and you'll get a different answer every time. Education, conservation and science all _____50_____. But the _____51_____ answer -cultivating sympathy for animals—is becoming harder to do while providing humane care to these animals.Study after study has shown that many animal species are far smarter and more _____52_____ than previously understood, giving new insights into how they may suffer from anxiety and depression when they are removed from _____53_____. That has forced a difficult existential question: If we acknowledge that creatures suffer when they're trapped, should they be kept in zoos? Not even those who have _____54_____ the cause for more humane exhibits have an answer. "Even the best zoos today are based on captivity and coercion(囚禁与胁迫)”，says Jon Coe, the legendary zoo designer "To me. that's the _____55_____ fault.”41.

For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.(A)A 27-year-old graphic designer from Oxfordshire in England completed a record-breaking journey across Australia yesterday. It was a 5,800 kilometre journey—and he travelled the whole distance on a skateboard. David Cornthwaite, who started skateboarding less than two years ago, decided on his journey after waking up one morning and realising he hated his job. 'I thought the only thing keeping me going is the skate to and from work. I was looking for something new/ he said. "I saw a Lonely Planet guide to Australia. There was a map on the back. Perth was on one side and Brisbane on the other and I thought, 'that'll do”.He decided to prepare by skateboarding from John O'Groats to Lands End: the two points further apart on the British mainland. That 1,442 kilometre journey, which he finished in June, took just over a month, during which an infected blister (水泡)swelled to the 'size of a tennis ball’. Crossing Australia on a skateboard brough unique challenges. The wind caused by huge road trains, the lorries that thunder across the Outback, was so powerful that he was sometimes blown off his board. Multiple blisters and aching ankles, toes and feet, have kept him in almost constant pain for the last six weeks. ,I feel like an old man. I'm not sure that anyone has ever had this many blisters/ he said. Temperatures of 40cC and above mean that he has used more than a dozen tubes of factor 30 sunscreen. 'There have been moments where I thought "this is ridiculous. I have to rest”，but I never considered giving up.’Skating an average of 50 kilometres a day and hitting speeds of up to 50kph on downhill runs, he left Perth. Western Australia, and skated across the fearsome Nullarbor Plain into South Australia. After reaching Adelaide he made his way to Melbourne and from there to Sydney A support team of seven people trailed from all the way in a four-wheel drive vehicle, which included camping equipment for night shops. The journey has smashed the previous record for a long-distance skateboard, set by an American, Jack Smith, who covered 4,800 kilometres across the US in 2003. David Comthwaite was less than three kilometres from the end of his epic journey when he hit a hole and was thrown off his skateboard, suffering cuts and bruises to his shoulders, knees, hips and elbows. ‘I was only going to 40km at the time, so although it wasn't pretty; it could have been a lot worse,’ he said.56. Why did David Comthwaite decide to skateboard across Australia?A. He wanted to break a world record.B. He was an experienced skateboarderC. He wanted to try something different.D. He was given a guidebook about Australia.51. What made David fall of his skateboard several times in Australia?A. The injuries on his feet.B. The thunderstorms in the Outback.C. The trains that race across the Outback.D. The wind created by huge lorries going past.58. Which of the following statements is true of David while he was on the journey?A. He slept in a tent during the journey.B. He skated at an average speed of 50 kph.C. He thought of giving up the journey halfway.D. He was sunburned due to the misuse of sunscreen.(B)Often enough the craft worker's place of employment in ancient Greece was set in rural isolation. Potter, for instance, found it convenient to locate their workshops near their source of clay, regardless of its relation to the center of settlement. At Corinth and Athens, however, two of the best-known potters' quarters were situated on the cities’ outskirts, and potters and makers of terra-cotta figurines (陶制俑)were also established well within the city of Athens itself Athenian black-figure and red-figure decoration, which emphasized human figures rather than animal images, was adopted between 630 and 530 B.C.: its distinctive color was the result of the skillful adjustments of the kiln’s (窑) temperature during an extended three-stage period. Whether it was the potters or the vase-painters who initiated changes in firing is unclear; the functions of making and decorating were usually divided between them, but neither group can have been so specialized that they did not share in the concerns of the other.The broad use of terra-cotta was such that workers in clay could generally afford to limit . themselves to either decorated ware and housewares like cooking pots and storage jars or building materials. Some sixth-and fifth-century B.C. Athenian pottery establishments are known to have concentrated on a limited range of fine ware, but a rural pottery establishment on the island of Thasos produced many types of pottery and roof tiles too, presumably to meet local demand. Molds were used to create particular effects for some products or to facilitate mass production. There were also a number of poor-quality figurines and painted pots produced in quantity by easy, inexpensive means, as numerous featureless statuettes and unattractive cases testify.60. The passage mainly discusses ancient Greek pottery and its__________.A. unusual materialsB. production techniquesC. similarity to other craftsD. resemblance to earlier pottery61 . Which of the following advantage did terra-cotta have?A. It had a lasting shine on the surface.B. It could be used for many purposes.C. It did not break during the firing process.D. It was less expensive than other available materials.62. Which of the following statements is true of ancient Greek potters and vase painters?A. They seldom produced inferior ware.B. They stuck to their way of producing pieces.C. It is almost impossible to draw a clear line between them.D. It is hard to explain why they didn't make any human images’(C)How does one protect elephants from ivory poachers (象牙偷猎者)in an African reserve the size of a small country? This task typically falls to park rangers who may spend weeks patrolling the bush on foot sometimes lacking basic devices such as radios, tents or even socks. They are largely losing to poachers.To stop the losses, conservationists are increasingly turning to technology. The latest tools include real-time tracking collars, developed by the Kenya-based nonprofit Save the Elephants and currently being used on more than 325 animals in 10 countries--- The organization's researchers wrote algorithms (算法)that use signals from the collars to automatically detect when an animal stops moving (indicating it may be dead), slows down (suggesting it may be injured) or heads toward a danger zone, such as an area known for poaching. Unlike traditional tracking collars, many of which send geographical coordinates infrequently or store them onboard for later retrieval, these devices' real-time feeds enable rangers to react quickly. In several cases, they have led to arrests.The amount of data produced by the new collars quickly became overwhelming, however. So Save the Elephants partnered with Vulcan- a company created by Microsoft co-founder Paul Allen—which engineered an open-source tracking application for iOS and the Web called the Domain Awareness System. The DAS app sends alerts when a potential problem arises—if field sensors pick up on human intruders, for example. It also integrates a wealth of other information, including the positions of nearby rangers, vehicles and aircraft, as well as detected gunshots, camera trap feeds, arrest and crime-scene records, weather, and more.Some of the technologies used in the collars—GPS, onboard data storage, phone or satellite receivers—are found in everyday devices, including smartphones. Yet in this case these tools are being applied in an exceptional way, according to Jake Wall, geospatial science adviser for Save the Elephants. It is the first time all the data that DAS uses have been presented in one neat feed and map, he says.An early version of the program is being tested at four sites in Africa, with a 10-site expansion planned for September. At Lewa Wildlife Conservancy in Kenya, DAS is already seen as a game changer after its launch less than a year ago, says Batian Craig, director of 51 Degrees, a private company that oversees security operations at Lewa.63. The latest tracking collars are different from traditional ones in that __________.A. they can send signals immediatelyB. they withdraw information at any timeC. they can store more information onboardD. they send geographical coordinates infrequently64. Why did Save the Elephants partner with Vulcan?A. It has met with financial problems.B. It hopes to make a big profit in the future.C. It doesn't know how to advance its collar.D. It can't handle the collected data very well.65. What does Batian Craig say about DAS?A. It will make a big difference.B. It was launched in September.C. It will have a new version soon.D. It needs to be tested at more sites.66. Which of the following might be the best title of the passage?A. How Elephants LiveB. Find My ElephantC. Elephant-Friendly AreasD. Elephants VS PoachersSection CDirections: Complete the following passage by using the sentences given below. Each sentence can be used only once.

Discovered accidentally in 1974, in Xi'an Province, in China, when local farmers were digging for water, over 8.000 baked clay figures have since been found.__________67__________ Emperor Qin was one of the most important rulers in Chinese history. After becoming emperor of the state of Qin at the age of 13. he conquered six other states over the next 25 years, and became the first emperor of a united China.In Qin's time, the ancient Chinese believed that their "afterlife" was very similar to the life on earth. Consequently, when they died and were buried, objects which would be useful to them in the next life were buried with them. __________ 68__________ In addition, the emperor ordered an army to be built so that his palace would be protected.__________69__________ In ancient China, however, they used a completely different method.A huge production line was established to make the tens of thousands of individual human and animal statues which Emperor Qin demanded. All the different pails of the body such as legs, arms, and heads were made separately and then assembled. The same process was also used for other pieces such as ears, beards, and armour. When the whole figure was completed, it was baked in an oven.The terracotta figures are life-like and life-sized. Each one has a different facial expression and hairstyle, as well as uniforms which indicate their job and rank. Among the figures there are ordinary soldiers, archers, and officers, together with horses. They were discovered arranged in military formation ready to protect the emperor in the afterlife.In 1987, the tomb and army of Emperor Qin were declared a World Heritage site by UNESCO. __________70__________ The Terracotta Army clearly deserves this honour, as nearly two million people from all over the world visit it each year.IV.

Since people told stories instead of writing them, the stories changed in between places and with each storyteller. Each new storyteller made changes to the stories based on his own traditions and culture. For example, many cultures have stories like the raven tale about how people got light. In these tales, though, the main character is another type of animal.Next the characters in folktales are similar They are usually ordinary characters who do extraordinary things. They usually have only one or two strong characteristics. For instance, thechief in the Raven story is selfish and not very smart. But Raven is very generous—he wants to help people. And he's very clever as he finds a way to get the light . In addition, often the characters in folktales are not people but animals with human qualities. They talk, make plans, and have strong emotions. Small animals such as the popular spider and turtle play this role in West African stories. In summary, the characters of folktales are simple but often clever in achieving their goals. Finally, the plot, or what happens in the folktale, is usually exciting. Most folktales begin with an expression like “a long time ago" and then move very quickly into the story, which starts with a problem. For instance, a strong, bad character often gives a weaker character a task and promises something if he completes the task. The weaker character often uses clever tricks, special skills, or magic to complete the task. In the end of a folktale, the good characters usually win and the bad characters lose. In conclusion, the plot of a folktale is interesting.So, in summary, we know that the tradition of folktales is very old. They are told all over the world, but they share several of the same features, as said above.V.

第一部分阅读理解（共两节，满分40分）第一节（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分）阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项。
AIt’s rare that you see the words “shyness” and “letter” in the same sentence.After all,the common viewpoint is that those outgoing and sociable guys make great public speakers and excellent networkers and that those shy people are not.A survey conducted by USA Today referred to 65 percent of executives who believed shyness to be a barrier to leadership.Interestingly,the same article stresses that roughly 40 percent of leaders actually are quite shy—they're just better at adapting themselves to situational demands.Bill Gates,Warren Buffet and Charles Schwab are just a few "innies".Unlike their outgoing counterparts who are more sensitive to rewards and risk-taking,shy people take a cautious approach to chance.Rather than the flashy chit-chat that defines social gathering,shy people listen attentively to what others say and absorb it before they speak.They're not thinking about what to say while the other person is still talking,but rather listening so they can learn what to say.Along the same lines,shy people share a common love of learning.They are intrinsically（内在地）motivated and therefore seek content regardless of achieving an outside standard.Being shy can also bring other benefits.Remember being in school and hearing the same kids contribute,until shy little Johnny,who almost never said a word,cut in?Then what happened? Everyone turned around to look with great respect at little Johnny actually talking.This is how shy people made good use of their power of presence: they "own" the moment by speaking calmly and purposefully,which translate to a positive image.Shyness is often related to modesty.Not to say that limelight-seekers aren't modest,but shy people tend to have an accurate sense of their abilities and achievements.As a result,they are able to acknowledge mistakes,imperfections, knowledge gaps and limitations.Since shy people have a lower sensitivity to outside rewards than outgoing ones,they're more comfortable working with little information and sticking to their inner desires.Shy people are alsomore likely to insist on finding solutions that aren't primarily apparent.Don't believe me?Maybesuccessful person.The myth that shy people are less effective leaders than their outgoing fellows is just a misunderstanding.Make wise use of your personality strengths to lead your business no matter what side of the range you fall on.1.We can learn from Paragraph 2 that_______.A.shy people are sensitive to rewardsB.shy people care more about contentC.outgoing people are more careful about chancesD.outgoing people consider what to learn while listening2.The example of Johnny shows______.A.shy people are likely to be modestB.hardworking students speak little in publicC.some students keep silent on purpose at schoolD.shy people may have an advantage in discussion3.We can learn from the underlined sentence in Paragraph 5 that______.A.shyness results in successB.shyness contributes to popularityC.outside reward leads to insistenceD.uncertainty counts more than certainty4.The author supports his ideas mainly by______.A.giving definitions and presenting research resultsB.explaining problems and providing solutionsC.quoting authorities and making evaluationsD.making contrasts and gibing examplesB“Can’t hold a candle to”is a popular expression.When there wasn’t electricity,someone would have a servant light his way by holding a candle.The expression meant that the person who cannot hold a candle to you is not fit even to be your servant.Now,it means such a person cannot compare or compete.Another expression is “hold your tongue.”It means to be still and not talk.“H old your tongue”is not something you would tell a friend.But a parent or teacher might use the expression to quiet a noisy child.“Hold out”is an expression one hears often in sports reports and labor news.It means to refuse to play or work. Professional football and baseball players “hold out” if their team refuses to pay them what they think they are worth.The expression “hold up” has several different meanings.One is a robbery.A man with a gun may say,“This is a hold up.Give me your money.”Another meaning is to delay.A driver who was held up by heavy traffic might be late for work.Another meaning is for a story to be considered true after an investigation.A story can hold up if it is proved true.“Hold on”is another expression,which means wait or stop.As you leave for school,your brother may say,“Hold on,you forgot your book.” It is used to ask a telephone caller to wait and not hang up his telephone.Our final expression is “hold the line.”That means to keep a problem or situation from getting worse—to hold steady.For example,the president may say he will “hold the line on taxes.”He means there will be no increase in taxes.5.The expression “can’t hold a candle to” can be used when _______.A.some footballers refuse to play a gameB.someone else is wanted on the phoneC.someone is not qualified for a positionD.someone was delayed by heavy traffic6.The tune of the phrase “hold your tongue” is probably a little_______.A.amusingB.politeC.unfriendlyD.offensive7.If some teachers “hold out”,they probably______.A.change their attitudeB.refuse to workC.make a compromiseD.show their devotion8.Which of the following sentences can convey positive meanings?A.I was late as I was held up by a hold up.B.Hold on!You have to pay the bill,sir.C.You can’t even hold a candle to Michael.D.I promise to hold the line on house prices.CHow can we reduce the risk?There are four general approaches to dealing with volcanic（火山似的）dangers.We can try to keep the danger from occurring—often an impossible task.We can try to change its path or reduce its impact on existing development. We can take steps to protect future development.We can also do our best to have disaster response plans in place before they are needed.Removing the ThreatClearly,there is no way to stop an eruption.We can,however,attempt to reduce the eruption’s effects by strengthening structures,for example,building protective works such as walls to make lava（熔岩）flow away from developed areas.Such efforts can be and have been successful,but are of limited use in a large-scale（范围）eruption.Planning for the FutureProtecting future development from volcanic dangers is a simple task.Before building houses,we should judge the risk.If the risk seems too great,a safer location should be found.This type of planning is very effective,but all too often,people are drawn to the lush（葱郁的）,rolling land of a quiet volcano.Disaster Preparedness（预案）When a volcano comes to life,a few weeks may not be enough to avoid a tragedy.Planning is the key to saving lives.Well before the warning signs occur,people must be educated about volcanic dangers.Escape plans must be in munication between scientists,officials,the media,and the general public should be practiced.Emergency measures must be thought out and agreed upon.If you doubt the importance of these efforts,take another look at past volcanic tragedies,such as the eruption of Nevado del munication failures left the town of Armero unprepared for escape.When a deadly mudflow came down the slope（斜坡）,21,000 people—90 percent of the town’s people—died.9.The passage is intended for_______.A.the general publicB.architectsC.adventurersD.geographers10.When building houses,people tend to______.A.judge volcanic dangers carefullyB.take volcanic dangers seriouslyC.live near a quiet volcanoD.find a safer place far away from a volcano11.The writer mentioned Nevado del Ruiz to prove______.A.the failure to keep volcanic dangers from happeningB.the importance of preparing for a volcanic eruptionC.the bravery of the people in Armero TownD.the uncertainty of volcano’s damageDI was born and raised in Minnesota,the USA,but us an adult I have mostly lived in Europe and Africa.I teach cross-cultural management at the International Business School near Paris.For the last 15 years,I’ve studied how people in different parts of the world build trust,communicate,and make decisions especially in the workplace.While traveling in Tokyo recently with Japanese colleague,I gave a short talk to a group of 20 managers.At the end,I asked whether there were any questions or comments.No hands went up,so I went to sit down.My colleague whispered to me,“I think there actually were some comments,Erin.Do you mind if I try?”I agreed,but I guessed it a waste of breath.He asked the group again,“Any comments or questions?”Still,no one raised a hand,but this time he looked very carefully at each person in the silent audience.Gesturing to one of them,he said,“Do you have something to add?”To my amazement,she responded “Yes,thank you.” and asked me a very interesting question.My colleague repeated this several times,looking directly at the audience and asking for more questions or comments.After the session,I asked my colleague,“How do you know that those people had questions?”He hesitated,not sure how to explain it,and then said,“It has to do with how bright their eyes are.”He continued,“In Japan,we don’t make as much direct eye contact as you do in the West.So when you asked if there were any comments,most people were not looking directly at you.But a few people in the group were looking right at you,and their eyes were bright.That indicates that they would be happy to have you call on them.”I thought to myself I would never have learned from my upbringing in Minnesota.Since then,I try to focus on understanding behavior in other cultures I encounter,and keep finding the bright eyes in the room.12.What can we conclude from the first paragraph?A.Life in Minnesota has made the author worn out.B.The author enjoys traveling around the world.C.Different cultures are kind of familiar to the author.D.The author may start his own business in the future.13.Hearing the colleague whispering,the author______.A.went back to his seat and got seatedB.knew his colleague had some questionsC.owed a big debt of gratitude to his colleagueD.thought his colleague would get nowhere14.Where does the author’s colleague probably come from?A.Japan.B.America.C.Africa.D.France15.Which is the proper title for the passage?A.Focusing on Behavior in Cultures.B.Looking at Another Culture in the Eye.C.Sharing Different Cultures in Tokyo.D.Admiring the Beauty in the Eye.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。

In the early afternoon, when he was planning to go home, a fierce snowstorm swept into the area. Unable to see far, he accidentally turned off the path. Before he knew it, Nicholas was lost, all alone! He didn’t have food, water, a phone, or other supplies. He was getting colder by the minute.Nicholas had no idea where he was. He tried not to panic. He thought about all the survival shows he had watched on TV. It was time to put the tips he had learned to use.He decided to stop skiing. There was a better chance of someone finding him if he stayed put. The first thing he did was to find shelter from the freezing wind and snow. If he didn’t, his body temperature would get very low, which could quickly kill him.Using his skis, Nicholas built a snow cave. He gathered a huge mass of snow and dug out a hole in the middle. Then he piled branches on top of himself, like a blanket, to stay as warm as he could.By that evening, Nicholas was really hungry. He ate snow and drank water from a nearby stream so that his body wouldn’t lose too much water. Not knowing how much longer he could last. Nicholas did the only thing he could—he huddled (蜷缩) in his cave and slept.The next day, Nicholas went out to look for help, but he couldn’t find anyone. He followed his tracks and returned to the snow cave, because without shelter, he could die that night. On Tuesday, Nicolas went out again to find help. He had walked for about a mile when a volunteer searcher found him. After two days stuck in the snow, Nicholas was saved.Nicholas might not have survived this snowstorm had it not been for TV. He had often watched Grylls’ survival show “Man vs. Wild”. That’s where he learned the tips that saved his life in each episode(一期节目)of “Man vs Wild”. Grylls is abandoned in a wild area and has to find his way out.When Grylls heard about Nicholas’ amazing deeds, he was super impressed that Nicholas had made it since he knew better than anyone how hard Nicholas had to work to stay alive.24. What happened to Nicholas one Sunday afternoon?A. He got lost.B. He broke his skis.C. He hurt his eyes.D. He caught a cold.25. How did Nicholas keep himself warm?A. He found a shelter.B. He lighted some branches.C. He kept on skiing.D. He built a snow cave.26. On Tuesday, Nicholas .A. returned to his shelter safelyB. was saved by a searcherC. got stuck in the snowD. stayed where he was27. Nicholas left Grylls a very deep impression because he .A. did the right things in the dangerous situationB. watched Grylls’ TV program regularlyC. created some tips for survivalD. was very hard-workingCAs Internet users become more dependent on the Internet to store information, are people remembering less? If you know your computer will save information, why store it in your own personal memory, your brain? Experts are wondering if the Internet is changing what we remember and how.In a recent study, Professor Betsy Sparrow conducted some experiments. She and her research team wanted to know how the Internet is changing memory. In the first experiment, they gave people 40 unimportant facts to type into a computer. The first group of people understood that the computer would save the information. The second group understood that the computer would not save it. Later, the second group remembered the information better. People in the first group knew they could find the information again, so they did not try to remember it.In another experiment, the researchers gave people facts to remember, and told them where to find the information on the Internet. The information was in a specific computer folder (文件夹). Surprisingly, people later remember the folder location (位置) better than the facts. When peopleuse the Internet, they do not remember the information. Rather, they remember how to find it. This is called "transactive memory (交互记忆)"According to Sparrow, we are not becoming people with poor memories as a result of the Internet. Instead, computer users are developing stronger transactive memories; that is, people are learning how to organize huge quantities of information so that they are able to access it at a later date. This doesn't mean we are becoming either more or less intelligent, but there is no doubt that the way we use memory is changing.28. The passage begins with two questions to ______.A. introduce the main topicB. show the author's alttitudeC. describe how to use the Interne.D. explain how to store information29. What can we learn about the first experiment?A. The Sparrow's team typed the information into a computer.B. The two groups remembered the information equally well.C. The first group did not try to remember the information.D. The second group did not understand the information.30. In transactive memory, people ______.A. keep the information in mindB. change the quantity of informationC. organize information like a computerD. remember how to find the information31. What is the effect of the Internet according to Sparrow's research?A. We are using memory differently.B. We are becoming more intelligent.C. We have poorer memories than before.D. We need a better way to access information.DFood serves as a form of communication in two fundamental ways. Sharing bread or other foods is a common human tradition that can promote unity and trust. Food can also have a specific meaning, and play a significant role in a family or culture’s celebrations or trad itions. The foods we eat—and when and how we eat them—are often unique to a particular culture or may even differ between rural（农村的）and urban areas within one country.Sharing bread, whether during a special occasion (时刻) or at the family dinner table, is a common symbol of togetherness. Many cultures also celebrate birthdays and marriages with cakes that are cut and shared among the guests. Early forms of cake were simply a kind of bread, so this tradition hits its roots in the custom of sharing bread.Food also plays an important role in many New Year celebrations. In the southern United States, pieces of corn bread represent blocks of gold for prosperity (兴旺) in the New Year. In Greece, people share a special cake called vasilopita. A coin is put into the cake, which signifies (预示) success in the New Year for the person who receives it.Many cultures have ceremonies to celebrate the birth of a child, and food can play a significant role. In China, when a baby is one month old, families name and welcome their child in a celebration that includes giving red-colored eggs to guests. In many cultures, round foods such as grapes, bread, and moon cakes are eaten at welcome celebrations to represent family unity.Nutrition is necessary for life, so it is not surprising that food is such an important part of different cultures around the world.32. According to the passage, sharing bread______.A. indicates a lack of foodB. can help to develop unityC. is a custom unique to rural areasD. has its roots in birthday celebrations33. What does the coin in vasilopita signify for its receiver in the New Year?A. Trust.B. Success.C. Health.D. Togetherness.34. The author explains the role of food in celebrations by______.A. using examplesB. making comparisonsC. analyzing causesD. describing processes35. What is the passage mainly about?A. The custom of sharing food.B. The specific meaning of food.C. The role of food in ceremonies.D. The importance of food in culture.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。
