His organization provides food and clothes for p 81people and families in Miami and the neighboring areas.Joshua has r 82 thousands of dollars for his organization. He started to help the hungry when he was just 5. He was in his mother‟s car when they passed a beggar. Joshua asked his mother to stop so that he could give him $20. “It‟s my m 83 . I want to help him, Mum,” Joshua recalled. One year later, he created his organization with the help of his mother and Francine Hanna, a local businesswoman. “He just thought that was what he wanted to do,” his mother said. “And there was nothing that could s 84 him.”The organization now provides clothing, furniture and food for the poor people in America. At the same time, Joshua never misses a c 85 to encourage other people to follow what he did whether at church or on the streets. Earl Laird lost his job two years ago and hasn‟t managed to get a n86 one. Without money, he can‟t pay for the flat and has to live on the street. He depends on food from Joshua‟s Save the World. “Joshua is an angel (天使) from God,” he said.Joshua has won Miami‟s “Do the Right Thing” award and the “Kids Who Care” competition, which awarded him a $1,000 note. Even though he has a 87 done plenty, he said that hismission (使命)to provide for th e poor is far from finished. “I want to get a team together,” Joshua said. “I want my team to go out and give food to people who have a need for it. I want to spread love to countries in Africa.”2.闸北区C.

So they p 82 shopping with those heavy baskets?Sylvan: (nods) I‟ve got a huge crowd of customers every day, b 83 none of them wants to use the cart.Fred: I don‟t understand. We invented the cart so that people don‟t need to carry a basket around the shop.Sylvan: (laughs) And so that they will buy more groceries!Fred: So why don‟t they like the shopping cart?Sylvan: Young men think that pushing a cart around makes them look w 84 and slow, and young women think it‟s unfashionable.Fred: Of course it isn‟t fashionable right now. It‟s only just been invented! But I‟m sure older people will appreciate it. Sylvan: Um…Fred: What? They do n‟t like the cart e 85 ?Sylvan: Well, they think pushing it makes them look helpless!Fred: Oh no. We need to do something, Fred. We can‟t just g 86 up on this invention!Sylvan: We won‟t. (He gets up and walks around the room. Suddenly, he stops.) A ha! I‟ve got an idea.Fred: What is it?Sylvan: I‟ll hire(雇佣) some good-looking guys and girls to push the carts around and pretend they‟re shopping.Fred: Oh! So the real shoppers will see these attractive people using the carts and think, “Hey, if it‟s good enough for them, it‟s good enough for me!”Sylvan: E 87 .Fred: Hey! Maybe you could get one of the girls to greet your customers and encourage them to use the cart.Imagine this: romance is all around you, you have met and fallen in love with the most wonderful person.

Read the passage and fill in the blanks with proper words（14分）Chuck Wall teaches management and human relations at Bakersfield College. He walked into the class one day and told his students that their homework was to perform one act of random (任意的) kindness. His students did not c 81 understand the homework and didn‟t know what to do, but the professor would not answer their questions. He encouraged his students to work it out by themselves.One week later, the students entered the classroom excitedly to share their s 82 . One student gave away blankets to the homeless. Another reported on helping an old man cleaning the house, and another student had been trying to f 83 a long, lost friend. Students were energized (给予活力) by the homework and wanted other people to be kind too. And luckily, the local businesses provided them with some money and materials. With the s 84 of them, the students made stickers to put on cars that invited people to do something kind for others. They sold the stickers and decided to donate the money to a center for the blind―not surprising as Professor Wall is blind.Since then, kindness activities have been very p 85 in schools around the world. Many schools organize a Random Acts of Kindness Week, around November 13th, to celebrate World Kindness Day. Some schools use each day of Random Acts of Kindness Week to perform different kind acts, such as making a new friend, helping someone, doing community service, or r 86 money for a charity. Students learn to consider other people and think about how small actions can make the world a b 87 place.松江区(C) 81. poor 82. raised 83. money 84. stop 85. chance 86. new 87.

However, instead of staying at home, Li Chunyuan, a Junior 1 student at No. 42 Middle School, went out with her classmates. They made posters by t 81 and called on people not to set off fireworks.The students did this in order to r 82 air pollution. Since January, many cities in China have seen a lot of foggy days. In Beijing, only five days in January were free of smog (雾霾).An official for the Ministry of Environmental Protection told Beijing News that PM2.5 pollution is the m 83 problem with air pollution.Poor air has done harm to people’s health. Children and the elderly are more at risk. A report from Beijing C hildren’s Hospital shows that half of the p 84 had respiratory(呼吸道的) problems from Jan. 5 to 11.To respond to the air problem, the Chinese government and many Chinese people have started to take a c t i o n.B e i j i n g a n n o u n c e d a p l a n t o u s e c l e a n f u e l i n g o v e r n m e n t vehicles and plant trees.

Three students from No. 4 High School in Beijing wrote a report to advise h 86 to fight the air pollution.“We hope more people will j 87 us to protect our environment. With all our efforts, the blue skies will certainly return soon,” said Shi Yucong, one of the three students.2.奉贤How can I win a Nobel Prize for writing? Here’s the secret from this year’s winner: make it short, keep it real, and work hard.Canadian author Alice Munro, 82, was a 81 the 2013 Nobel Prize in literature (文学). She is known for her short stories about personal relationships of ordinary people, usually women.Munro was born in a farmer family in Ontario. The family was very poor. Munro did a lot of physical work a 82 a young girl.But she decided to be a w 83 when she was 12. She turns her hard childhood into great writing ideas.The story Dear Life, for example, opens with a description of the neighborhood in which Munro grew up.B 84 , she talked about her poor relationship with her mother in many of her stories, such as Lives of Girls and Women and Friend of My Youth.Since she p 85 her first book in 1968, Munro has won many awards, with the Nobel Prize as her biggest honor. But Munro doesn’t see h 86 as a talented writer.“I’m the opposite of a writer with a quick gift. I don’t grasp it very readily (轻而易举地) at all, the ‘it’ being whatever I’m trying to do,” she said.Do you d 87 of becoming a writer while sadly admitting you are not that talented? Munro has a tip for you: use notebooks and write a lot.“I have lots of notebooks that contain this te rribly clumsy (蹩脚的) writing,” she said. But it helps her sort out her mind. “Stories would just be working in my head for so long that when I started to write I was deep into them.”Do you get angry when your friends sing loudly while you are trying to work or when your best friend does not wait for you after school?If you do, you need to take control of your feelings. Getting angry with others can cause you to l 81 friends.Gray Egeberg, an American high school teacher, has written a book named My Feelings Are Like Wild Animalsto help you control your feelings. The book tells how to stay cool when b 82 things happen.The book says that getting angry only makes problems w 83 . It can never make them better. “ Getting angry is not a natu ral way to act, ” the book says. “ It’s just a habit, like smoking. ”The book says you can control your feelings e 84 ... all you have to do is to tell yourself not to be angry.The book gives many tips to help you if you get angry frequently. Here are the top three.● Keep a r 85 . Every time you get angry, write down why you are angry. Look at it later and you will see you get angry so often.● Ask your friends to s 86 talking to you when you get angry. Leave you alone. This will teach you not to be angry.● Do something d 87 . When you get angry, walk away from the problem and go somewhere else. Try to laugh.4.金山区Butterfly fairyThere was once a little girl. She had no family, and no one loved her. One day, when she was walking through a field, she noticed a small butterfly c 81 in a thorn bush（荆刺丛）. The more the butterfly tried to free itself, the deeper the thorns cut into its body. The little girl c 82 let go the butterfly. Instead of going away, the butterfly changed into a beautiful fairy.“For your kindness,” the butterfly fairy said to the little girl, “I will give you any w 83 you would like to have.”The little girl thought for a moment and then replied, “I want to be h 84 .”The fairy said, “Very good.” Then she got close to the girl’s ear and said something to her in a low voice.As the little girl grew up, there was no one in the village s 85 happy as she. Everyone asked the secret of her happiness. She would smile and only answer, “The secret of my happiness is that I listened to a butterfly fairy when I was a little girl.”When she was very old, the neighbours all came to visit her. They were a 86 that her secret of happiness would die with her. “Tell us, please,” they begged, “tell us what the fairy said.”The old woman smiled and said, “She told me that everyone, old or young, poor or rich, beautiful or ugly, n 87 me. She said that always helping others would make my dream come true.”5.静安区Who is managing things in your town or city? Someone repairs a broken window in the library.

She and Richard themselves were mystery r 83 and had a big collection of such books.On Halloween 1992, they opened the Mystery Lovers Bookshop and Café near their home. With three childrenin college, it was i 84 for the couple to spend all the family’s money to start a shop. To cover the $100,000 cost, they used some of their savings, borrowed from relatives and from a bank.In order to a 85 customers, Mary always had new ways. The shop had a coffee bar and it offered presents to mystery lovers and served dinners for book clubs that met in the store. She also invited many writers to d 86 their stories with the buyers to let them understand the stories better. Now after paying taxes, business costs and the six part-time sales clerks, Richard and Mary together earn about $34,000.“The job we love may not go hand in hand with lots of money,” says Richard. “We do this to givean e 87 life to ourselves. This is not about making a lot of money. What matters is that we gain happiness from it.”3.徐汇区Most people know that intelligence quotient (IQ) is important, but EQ is probably more importantin daily life. When facing an exam, EQ helps us to manage our feelings. When getting along with friendsor parents, EQ helps us to c 81 well.EQ is shaped partly by genetics（基因）. You can see some babies are quiet, while others are not.B 82 , EQ is something you can learn for yourself. You can learn what different feelings might mean and how they relate to yourself and others. If we learn in the right way, our EQ can get better as we get older. Children with a high EQ usually have greater success with making friends. Having a high EQ needs a few different skills. Learning about these skills can help us to i 83 our EQ. But what are they? Let’s take a look!1. Know yourselfMost people feel many different feelings t 84 the day. Some feelings like surprise last just a few seconds. Others, like happiness and sadness, may stay around much l 85 . Being able to recognize these everyday feelings is the most basic of all EQ skills.2. Manage yourselfWe all get angry. We all have disappointments. But we need to control it. It is not always the right time or place to express our feelings. When you are angry with someone, take a deep breath and s 86 count to 10. This way, you can calm down.3. Encourage yourselfWhen you fail an exam, you may be disappointed. But there is something more effective you can do—learnto encourage yourself. It gives you the energy and c 87 to move on.

Listen to the passage and tell whether the following statements are true or false (判断下列句子是否符合你听到的内容, 符合的用“T”表示，不符合的用“F”表示)The funniest joke in the worldScientists have discovered the world’s funniest joke! Dr. Richard Wiseman, from Britain, created a website with jokes on it. He then asked people to rate the jokes from 1 (“not very funny”) to 5 (“very funny”). People could tell their own jokes. At the end of one year, Wiseman had two million ratings and 40,000 jokes from around the world.Why study jokes? Dr. Wiseman thinks humor can tell us a lot about people. In Wiseman’s experi ment, people from different countries did think jokes were funny. For example, Europeans rated jokes about serious topics like death “very funny”. North Americans laughed most at jokes that made fun of people. So, what was the world’s funniest joke?T wo men are hunting. Suddenly, one man falls down and isn’t moving. The other man calls for help on his cell phone. “Help!” the man says, “I think my friend is dead!” “I can help you,” says the woman on the phone. “First, are you certain your friend is dead?” It’s quiet for a minute. Then the woman hears a gunshot. After that the man returns to the phone. “Yes, he’s dead. What shall I do then?”In Dr. Wiseman’s experiment, people from a number of countries, old and young, men and women, all thought this joke was the funniest.

They are so amazing and beautiful. The reason they are called “rain” forests is because of the high amount of rainfall they get per year. The Amazon is the world’s largest tropical rain forest. It is l ocated in South America. The Amazon is about 2 million square miles in area and it reaches nine countries. The majority of the forest is contained within Brazil, with 60% of the forest. The Amazon has an average temperature of about 80℉. Its average rainfall is around 50-175 inches per year.Rain forests don’t take up much space on earth. All these places cover only 6% of the Earth’s surface, yet they contain between 50 and 90 percent of the planet’s plant and animal species! So does the Amazon. It contains around 2.5 million varieties of insects, 3,000 kinds of fish, and 400 mammal species. It also contains thousands of different plants! However, all of the wildlife is in danger. The rain forests are under attack by human beings.(21. nine countries 22. an average 23. on earth 24. varieties of 25. in danger)。

Choose the best answer（根据短文内容，选择最恰当的答案）: ( 12分)A mother in Australia was told by a doctor that her new born son was“dead”, but she helped bring him back to life by holding the baby against her body. She used a method known as “kangaroo care” (袋鼠护理法). The child, named Jamie, was born after only 27 weeks with his twin sister, Emily, at a hospital in Sydney. Her birth went well, but his was a different story. The doctor struggled for 20 minutes to save Jamie before declaring (宣布)him dead.“His little arms and legs were just falling down away from his body,”Kate Ogg said, “I took my coat off and put him on my chest with his head over my arm.” She and her husband, David, spoke to the child as she continued to hold him for nearly two hours. During that time, the two-pound baby showed signs of life. She said,“I told my mom, who was there, that he was still alive. Then he held out his hand and grabbed (抓住)my finger.” Their tiny baby grew stronger and stronger in his mother’s arms, and their final goodbye turned into a hello.The doctor at first ignored(忽视) the baby’s movements, but when he put the stethoscope (听诊器) to its chest, his mouth was wide open and he said,“it’s my fault. It’s a miracle(奇迹).”“The “kangaroo care” helps the baby keep body warmth,” Dr Pinchi Srinivasan said, “It also regulates (调节) heartbeat and breathing rates and is believed to help weight gain and improve sleeping habits. Fathers can also use “kangaroo care”. The key to the method is skin -to -skin contact.The practice began in less developed nations.

Choose the words or expressions to complete the passage(选择最恰当的单词或词语,完成短文): (12分)Grandma was the only mother Thomas had ever known. She appeared to be a loving lady but often angered easily. When Thomas one day discovered that other children had someone they called Mum and asked why he must call her grandma instead of Mum. She told him gently about his mother’s death before he was three months old. There was not the same reaction(反应) when he asked why he had 75 to call Dad. Then his grandmother glared at (瞪着)Him and got angrier than he had 76 seen and the sharp reply was,”He was a bad man. He didn’t want your mother, and he didn’t want you when you were born. Thomas never asked about his father any more.Shortly after his fifth birthday and two days before Christmas Day, Thomas was woken up by his grandma’s calling to him from her bedroom. Running into the old lady’s room, he found her 77 for breathlessness, and between gasps (喘气)，trying to tell him to fetch the next-door neighbour. As soon as the neighbour arrived, she sent Thomas to call another neighbour. Next Thomas was told he must stay downstairs, so he sat in the kitchen, trying to give all his 78 to his toys. He was there to see the doctors arrive, and to see him leave a few minutes later. This eased(减轻) Thomas worry. A doctor would stay a long time with someone who was seriously ill. The fact that the doctor left so 79 after his arrival meant that. Grandma was going to be all right again. He expected to be told he could go upstairs and see her. But the first neighbour came down and explained that Grandma was 80 and the doctor had said that she couldn’t be disturbed (打扰). Shortly afterwards the second neighbour came down, helped Thomas put his toys in a box, and then took him to have lunch with her and her two children.75. A)none B)someone C)no one D) anyone76.

Read the passage and fill in the blanks with proper words (在短文的空格内填入适当的词,使内容通顺, 每空格限填一词，首字母已给): (14分)There are different ways of telling a story. It can be told in words, in pictures, in music, and acted o 81 , or it can be told by still another way--- by dancing. Dancing that tells a story is called a ballet（芭蕾舞). The dancing in a ballet is done to music, but the story is told by the movements of the dancers. There is no singing and speaking in it. A ballet is a work of art just as a beautiful picture.The origin(起源) of ballet d 82 back about 600 years ago, which began as a kind of entertainment in the courts of the rulers in Italy. Two hundred years later ballet wad popular in the French court. The French King Louis XIV founded a ballet school. Later the rulers of Russia became interested in ballet. They offered large amounts of money to the best ballet masters and dancers of France. They also set up their own ballet schools and dance companies(舞蹈团). Soon Russians produced many famous ballets. “Swan Lake” was one of them. Russians transformed the world dance, music, art, theatre and even f 83 .The basic positions(姿势) and techniques of ballet were developed long ago. Over the centuries, choreographers （编舞者）have revised（修改）the classical techniques, but the basic positions have remained the same. When you begin learning the steps and poses （舞姿）of ballet, you will realize that most of them have French names. For example, a part of a ballet that is danced by just two people is called pas-de-deux(芭蕾双人舞). Most of the French terms have been c 84 throughout the years.Ballet dancing is known for its grace and elegance, as ballerinas(芭蕾舞女演员) seem to glide（滑行）across the stage almost effortlessly（不费力地）. Ballet dancers strive to appear tall and light on their feet. Female dancers raise themselves even higher by going up on their toes with pointe shoes（足尖鞋）. Probably the most important part of a ballet dancer's equipment is ballet shoes. After several years of proper t 85 , some female ballet dancers wear pointe shoes to make them appear lighter and more delicate. Pointe shoes make it possible for ballerinas to dance on the tips of their toes.The first ballet was performed over 500 years ago. Men t 86 danced the leading roles, as women were considered too weak to perform the challenging and sometimes daring choreography（大胆的舞蹈动作）. But now a girl has as good a chance as a boy of being a famous ballet dancer. Many of the most famous ballets were adapted from fairy tales and folk stories. Some ballets are based on historical events and bible stories. In a ballet you can find the most beautiful and graceful of all dance styles. If you've ever seen a l 87 ballet on stage, you are aware of a ballerina's amazing ability to transport an entire audience into another world. All ballet dancers have one thing in common: a love of grace, beauty and discipline (有素养)of ballet.D. Answer the questions (根据短文内容回答下列问题)：(12分）Music not only gives you something to sing and dance to, but also can make you feelhappier. Scientists say that music can help to relax people’s mind and even help to relieve pain.How does music work its magic? It is the fact that music can adjust(调节) our mood. Recently, there is a scientific research to back up what we have always known about music. The studies have shown that when people are excited or happy they are more helpful. The opposite (相反的情况)happens when people feel aggressive（好斗的）or under stress. The use of music can influence how helpful people can be.Dr. Adrian North made a study with 256 university students.Half the group took exercise in the gymnasium listening to music which can bring happiness and the other half exercised to aggressive music. When leaving the gym, the students were asked to hand out flyers（传单）in support of the local disabled athlete’s foundation（残疾运动员基金会）.The results showed that nearly half of the group that listened to happy music were willing to (愿意) hand out flyers. But less than 20% in the group that heard the aggressive music were willing to do so. This study suggests that our choice of music can influence our willingness to cooperate(合作). While a study also shows that productivity (生产效率) can be increased with the right choice of background music in the workplace. As music stimulates(刺激)worker’s mind, job satisfaction is often positively influenced. Other studies have shown that workers who are in a good mood have more job satisfaction than those in a bad mood.These studies show that music can have a powerful influence on a person’s ability to cooperate. Moods have a direct influence(直接影响) on cooperation and job satisfaction.These factors also have a direct relationship to the success of a business.88.What do scientists say about music?___________________________________________________________.89.The phrase “back up” in Line 6, Paragraph 1 most probably means “support”, doesn’t it?____________________________________________________________.90.Why do people use the right choice of background music in the workplace?____________________________________________________________.91.How many university students did Dr. Adrian North make a study with?____________________________________________________________.92.How do people feel if they are bored or sad ?____________________________________________________________.93.What do moods have a direct influence on?____________________________________________________________.VII.
