Some think that it is a stage to show their talents of art, contributing to their social experience and build up their confidence. What’s more, it’s good for their overall development.However, other students hold the different opinion / view that the teenagers are just imitating others rather than showing somethng original and that they don’t have their own style. Besides, some are too lost in pursuing stars to concentrate on their studies and some of them are in danger of being cheated by others.读写任务：One possible version:A kind man cut a cocoon open in order to lessen/ ease/ relieve the pain of a butterfly when he saw it struggling out of the coccon, only to find that it could never fly because of his help.The story sets me thinking a lot. Our life is more or less like this. Sometimes, struggles or obstacles in our life are a must for our growth. It is these struggles or hardships that increase our willpower and contribute to our success. Without these trials, we could never achieve our life goal just as the butterfly did in the story.Nowadays, with only one child in most families, parents do whatever they can to satisfy the child’s needs and even do for him what should be done on his own. Consequently, the child is unable to look after himself without his parents’ presence. Too much care from parents rids children of their chances to grow strong by conquering obstacles. Just as a saying goes, “Flowers from a greenhouse can never withstand a storm”,If I were a parent, I would first keep him well informed that life is never easy and that he should be ready to face any challenges. Besides, I would expose him to the hardships in life instead of protecting him from difficulties, providing them with chancesto fight for his own bright future by overcoming difficulties.。

Using an electronic dictionary does provide students with convenience as well as save time, which helps to raise students' learning efficiency. However, if students become too dependent on the electronic dictionary, they will surely lose the opportunity to guess the meaning of a new word according to the context. Personally, I think sensibly using an electronic dictionary can make it easier for students to learn English and arouse our further interest in English study. Meanwhile, it is my suggestion that students should avoid the harmful effects of overusing the electronic dictionary and learn to apply what we have learned to guess the meaning of a new word.第二节：One possible version:Some universities encourage freshmen to enroll by themselves without their parent's help for students' growing up. Meanwhile the author appeals to parents to develop their chidren's independent character, which helps students to achieve their dreams.Personally, I can't agree more with the idea that those universities require freshmen to register by themselves. As an adult, coming to school alone is so easy that everyone can do it well. We had better do things by ourselves for we can't grow up with parents' spoiling and taking care of everything. What these universities did is a good way to cultivate students' independent character and help them grow toughly.Were I a freshman, I would go to university alone. First of all, my parents have their own affairs to deal with and there's no need to bother them to help me. In addition, enrolling by myself at the beginning of my university will open a new stage of my school life, and I should learn to take care of myself from the start.When it comes to cultivating the independence of students, joint efforts from students themselves, families and schools are needed. To begin with, when we students meet with difficulties, we had better try to deal with them on our own instead of turning to our parents for help. Furthermore, parents shouldn't arrange everything for their children. Last but not least, schools can provide more independence-developing programs to go with school education.。

（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分） (共4题；共30分)1．（6分）阅读理解Attractive lakeside cottages and cabinsLafitte's Landing Guest Quarters, Uncertain, TexasThere are five cottages featuring high ceilings and spacious bedrooms.

I disliked memorizing formulas(公式) and taking tests, all for the dull goal of getting a good grade. One of my teachers told my mother that I was “slow”. But my problem wasn't with math itself. In fact, when a topic seemed particularly interesting, I would go to the library and read more about it.By high school, no one told me that I could become a professional mathematician. What I wanted to do then was to play college football. My ambition was to get an athletic scholarship to attend a Big Ten school.The chances of that happening were very low. But that didn't stop my coaches from encouraging me to believe I could reach my goal, and preparing and pushing me to work for it. They made video tapes of my performances and sent them to college coaches around the country. In the end, a Big Ten school, Penn State, did offer me a scholarship.I wish math teachers were more like football coaches. Students are affected by more than just the quality of a lesson plan. They also respond to the passion of their teachers and the engagement of their peers, and they seek a sense of purpose. They benefit from specific instructions and constant feedback(反馈).Until I got to college, I didn't really know what mathematics was. I still thought of it as laborious(耗时费力的) calculations. Then my professor handed me a book and suggested that I think about a particular problem. It wasn't easy, but it was fascinating. My professor kept giving me problems, and I kept pursuing them, even though I couldn't always solve them immediately. The mathematical research I was doing had little in common with what I did in my high school classrooms. Instead, it was closer to the math and logic puzzles I did on my own as a boy. It gave me that same sense of wonder and curiosity, and it rewarded creativity. I am now a Ph. D candidate in mathematics at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.（1）（2分）Why did the writer think math class in school was “something to be endured” before entering college?A．Because he wasn't interested in math.B．Because his math teachers didn't care to push him.C．Because he was too smart and talented for math class.D．Because he was training hard for an athletic scholarship.（2）（2分）According to the writer students are affected by the following things from teachers orcoaches EXCEPT ________.A．a sense of purpose B．constant feedbackC．passion D．specific instructions（3）（2分）We can conclude that after entering college, the writer ________.A．was busy looking for math problems to solveB．studied on his own just as he was in high schoolC．met with laborious calculations in his studiesD．began to realize what mathematics really is（4）（2分）What is the best title for the text?A．Interest is the best teacherB．Be the best—you can make itC．Math, taught like footballD．Once your teacher, always your teacher3．（8分）阅读理解You have probably read about robots replacing human labor as a new era of automation takes root in one industry after another. But a new report suggests humans are not the only ones who might lose their jobs.In New Zealand, farmers are using drones(无人机) to herd and monitor cows and sheep, taking up a position that highly intelligent dogs have held for more than a century. The robots have not replaced the dogs entirely, Radio New Zealand reports, but they have appropriated(盗用) one of the animal's most powerful tools: barking. The DJI Mavic Enterprise, a $3,500 drone favored by farmers, has a feature that lets the machine record sounds and play them over a loudspeaker, giving the machine the ability to act as the dogs.Corey Lambeth, a shepherd on a farm, told RNZ the machines are surprisingly effective. ''That's the one thing I've noticed when you're moving cows that the old cows stand up to the dogs, but with the drones, they've never done that,'' he said, noting the drones move cows faster, with less stress, than the dogs do.The drones come in handy for more than just herding(放牧) cows and sheep. The robots allow farmers to monitor their land from afar, monitoring water and feed levels and checking on the animals' healthwithout disturbing them. Jason Rentoul told RNZ that a two-hour herding job that used to require two people and two teams of dogs could be accomplished in 45 minutes using a single drone. ''Being a hilly farm where a lot of stuff is done on foot, the drones really saved a lot of man hours, '' he said.For now, farmers say, there is still a need for herding dogs, primarily because they have a longer life span than drones, can work in bad weather and do not require an electrical socket every few hours to recharge.（1）（2分）What is the main advantage of the drones over herding dogs?A．The drones can take up a job that the dogs hardly do well any longer.B．The drones can frighten the old cows which are not afraid of the dogs.C．The drones can finish a herding job more efficiently than the dogs.D．The drones can work on a hilly farm and extreme weather while the dogs can't.（2）（2分）Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?A．Herding dogs will gradually lose their position on the farmland.B．The drones can only copy the dogs' barking with the current technology.C．The drones are multi-functional and leave the animals undisturbed.D．The market for the DJI Mavic Enterprise is pretty small because of its high price.（3）（2分）According to the passage, why can't the drones replace the dogs entirely?A．Because the drones can't bark as loudly as the dogs do.B．Because cows are not used to seeing the drones.C．Because the drones are much more expensive than the animal.D．Because the drones' power is limited and they need charging from time to time.（4）（2分）What is the author's attitude towards the drones in the passage?A．supportive B．objective C．critical D．doubtful4．（8分）阅读理解Recently I rolled into a local restaurant to try an Impossible Burger, an all-plant patty(人造肉饼) invented by Impossible Foods. It's well known for having an strangely chewy(有咀嚼感), even bloody, meat-like quality, a surprising verisimilitude(逼真) that has made it ''perhaps the country's most famous burger, '' as New York magazine wrote. One bite into its wonderful, smoky taste and, damn, I was convinced.This is good news, because the time has come to consume fake meat. In the fight against climate change, meat replacement is something we can try. A University of Oxford study recently found that, to keepglobal warming below 2 degrees this century, we need to be eating 75 percent less beef and 90 percent less pork.However, diets are culturally enshrined, so changing them will be hard. It isn't easy to replace 75 to 90 percent of beef and pork with fake meat. The first taste of an Impossible Burger—a moment when low expectations work a powerful magic in the product's favor—is one thing. But how do you keep meat-eaters asking for more after their sixth, and their 26thTo get to true mass adoption, fake meat will need to compete favorably with the real thing on multiple fronts. Impossible Foods' goal is to drive the price of its product below that of Safeway's 80/20 hamburger meat, at which point people will simply vote with their wallets. The new industry also wants to improve on animal flesh in various ways. Fake meat has an advantage over traditional meat because ''you won't need to refrigerate it'' cofounder Niko Koffeman says. Plus, custom(定制的) production could improve choice. ''You could have very soft and tender meat for elderly people,'' Koffeman adds. ''You could have a tailored meat for whatever you need.''You can tell the world is shifting this way, because the ranchers(牧场主) are nervous. Last year, the US Cattlemen's Association asked the government to define ''meat'' as a product ''coming directly from animals.'' That anxiety—and the power of the science driving it—goes to show that this grand shift isn't impossible.（1）（2分）According to passage, the author was convinced by the Impossible Burger because__.A．it has a special taste that is different from normal ones.B．it contains all non-meat materials that taste like meat.C．more vegetables are used as main materials for the burger.D．one bite of this burger can provide people with the energy needed for a whole day.（2）（2分）What does the author mean by saying "Diets are culturally enshrined"?A．That people think their diet is the best in the world.B．That people are unwilling to go against their culture by changing their diets.C．That people's preference for food is linked to the food choice available to them.D．That people's eating habits are consistently observed and closely connected with their culture.（3）（2分）Which of the following statements is true about the advantages that fake meat will have to beat over traditional meat?A．Fake meat will not be necessarily stored in a refrigerator.B．The price of fake meat will be just one-fourth of traditional meat's.C．Fake meat will win over older people thanks to its tender and soft taste.D．Fake meat will own a taste that is not found in traditional meat.（4）（2分）What can we infer from the last paragraph?A．Meat must come from animals.B．The world will probably embrace the idea of fake meat.C．The ranchers are suffering economic loss due to fake meat.D．The definition of meat has been changed because of fake meat.二、任务型阅读（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分） (共1题；共10分)5．（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。

AMaster painter Zhang Daqian (1899-1983) was well known for having a large number of friends and students. Among them, painter Li Qiujun was special.They got to know each other through Li's elder brother, who was one of Zhang's best friends.They admired each other's artistic talent and became confidants, which resulted in a romantic relationship.In 1948, Zhang produced Spring Clouds Amid Autumn Landscape, a mountain-and-water ink painting featuring gongbi (meticulous brushwork), as a gift for Li's 50th birthday.A year later, Zhang permanently departed from the mainl and, and traveled and exhibited around the world before settling down in Taipei in 1976.After leaving the mainland, he often said that he missed Li, who died in Shanghai in1973.Spring Clouds Amid Autumn Landscape will be auctioned in Hong Kong on Oct 4.The painting not only marks a friendship between the two painters, but it deserves special attention because it shows Zhang at the top of his game as he sought to master the mountain-and-water style, according to C.K. Cheung, head of Sotheby's Chinese painting department.Sotheby's will auction the work at its major autumn sale, which runs from Oct 1 to 5.Cheung says the painting's composition and Zhang's attention to details reflect his incorporation of traditional touches, especially from Song Dynasty (960-1279) paintings, while also developing his own style.21. The underlined word “confidants” in paragraph 3 probably means ____.A. enemiesB. collegesC. friendsD. painters22. How old was Li Qiujun when she died?A. 50B. 75C. 78D. 8423. According to the passage, which of the following is NOT true?A. Spring Clouds Amid Autumn Landscape was originally a gift for Li's 50th birthday.B. Zhang Daqian permanently departed from the mainland in 1949.C. Sotheby's will auction Spring Clouds Amid Autumn Landscape in Hong Kong.D. Li Qiujun's elder brother was also one of ZhangDaqian's students.BA new international study shows that some people's biological clock plays a powerful role for their life expectancy, regardless of lifestyle choices.Published in the latest issue of Aging on Wednesday, the study has found the most definitive evidence to explain why some people keep healthy lifestyle but die younger than others.Geneticist Steve Horvath from the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA), led a team of 65 scientists around the world to record age-related changes to human DNA, analyse blood samples collected from 13,000 people and estimate their lifespan.A higher biological age, regardless of actual age, consistently predicts an earlierdeath, the study says."You get people who are vegan, sleep 10 hours a day, have a low-stress job, and still end up dying young," Horvath said in a statement. "We have shown some people have a faster innate aging rate."The findings discovered that 5 percent of the population ages at a faster biological rate, which translated to a roughly 50 percent higher than average risk of death at any age."The great hope is that we find anti-aging interventions that would slow your innate aging rate," Horvath said, adding tha t "this is an important milestone to realizing this dream."24.Some people keep healthy lifestyle but die younger than others because ______.A. their biological clock is not powerful enoughB. the most definitive evidence has been foundC. they have a higher actual age than othersD. they ages at a relatively faster biological rate25.How was the study conducted?A. By collecting and analyzing dataB. By interviewing lots of peopleC. By researching previous studiesD. By studying different lifestyles26.According to the study, it can be inferred that ______.A. people who keep healthy lifestyle tend to live longerB. people’s lifespan can be predicted by their ageC. 5 percent of people are believed to have a faster innate aging rateD. anti-aging interventions have proved to slow the innate aging rate27.Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?A. We all should keep healthy lifestyleB. Geneticist finds anti-aging interventionsC. Biological clock predicts life expectancyD. Horvath builds an important milestoneCAs a Chinese saying goes, “Taste is actually a memory of childhood”. Local specialty food may not be popular among all people, but it offers outsiders a glimpse of local culture and history.Gongcheng “oil tea” is such a kind of food that would be considered “weird” by many first-time visitors to the remote county in the north of the Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region. Many people dislike its bitter and astringent（涩的） flavor when they take a sip.“It felt like drinking Chinese herbal medicine. I never expected that I would gradually accept it afterwards, and even become addicted to it,” said a traveler surnamed Zhang who comes from S hijiazhuang in northern China’s Hebei province.Langshan village is said to be the birthplace of Gongcheng “oil tea” whose ideal ingredients are green tea and fermented tea. The village has preserved well its buildings and roads dating back to late Qing Dynasty (1644-1911), as well as its traditional way of making the special tea.Lin Fengyou, 60, introduced the cooking process. She looks younger than her age, and attributes this to the benefits of drinking “oil tea” throughout the year.The first procedure is to use a wooden hammer to pound the tea while heating it in an iron pot, and then add edible oil and boiled water afterwards. She filters off the solid residues（余渣）, and pours the glue-like green tea soup into bowls. Then, she adds salt, caraway seed, green onion, dried rice, fried groundnuts, sliced taro and fried beans.The taste of the “oil tea” is a mixture of the distinctive flavors of all its ingredients. Local people usually eat it together with glutinous rice（糯米） balls, rice dumplings and glutinous rice cake.The villagers consume “oil tea” three times a day. The tea soup is a healthy and refreshing food. “The tea soup to us is coffee to Westerners”, said Lin. “But it is tastier.”28.Many first-time visitors may find “oil tea” ______ when taking a s ip.A. popularB. strangeC. addictedD. beneficial29.What can we learn about Lin Fengyou according to the passage?A. She never expected that she would gradually accept “oil tea”.B. She is one of the reasons why the special tea has been preserved.C. She thinks drinking “oil tea” throughout the year makes her look younger.D. She drinks “oil tea” three times every day and considers coffee tastier.30.Which is the correct order of cooking “oil tea” according to Lin Fengyou?a. pour the glue-like green tea soup into bowlsb. heat the tea in an iron pot and pound the teac. add salt, caraway seed, green onion, dried rice, etcd. add edible oil and boiled watere. filter off the solid residuesA. bdeacB. dbaceC. acebdD. beadc31.Which column is this passage probably taken from?A.

选B考点：考查人生百味类短文Recently, professor of philosophy（哲学）in the United States has written a book called Money and the Meaning of Life. He has discovered that how we deal with money in our daily life has more meaning than we usually think. One of the exercises he asked his students to do is to keep a record of every penny they spend for a week. From the way they spend their money, they can see what they really value in life. He says our relations with others often become clearly defined（清晰的）when money enters the picture. You might have wonderful relationship with somebody and you think that you are very good friends. But you will know him only when you ask him to lend some money. If he does, it brings something to the relationship that seems stronger than ever before or it can suddenly weaken the relationship if he doesn’t. This person may say that he has a certain feeling, but if it is not carried out in the money world, there is something less real about it.Since money is so important to us, we consider those who possess a lot of it to be very important. The author interviewed some millionaires in researching his book. Question: What is the most surprising thing you have discovered about being rich, because you are a self-made man?Answer: The most surprising thing is how people give me so much respect. I am nothing.I don’t know much. All I am is rich.People just have an idea of making more and more money, but what is it for? How much do I need for any given purposes in my life? In his book, the professor uncovered an important need in modern society: to bring back the idea that money is an instrument rather than the end. Money plays an important role in the material world, but expecting money to give happiness may be missing the meaning of life. 16．According to the first paragraph, people have not realized ______.A. how important money is in their daily lifeB. how one spends money shows what is important to himC. that money is more important than their philosophy of lifeD. that their understanding of life is more important than money17．The author seems to believe that asking your friend to lend you some money ________.A. is a good way to test your friendshipB. will do harm to your friendshipC. will strengthen your friendshipD. is a good way to break off your friendship18．What does the American professor of philosophy want to explain in his book?A. Money is an end．B. Money is a means．C. Money is everything．D. Money is unimportant19．The under lined phrase “enter the picture” in the second paragraph can be replaced by “_________”.A. is used upB. is spent on picturesC. is paid in the right wayD. is paid attention to20．What can we learn about the millionaire from his answer in the interview?A. He doesn’t feel that he is well educated.B. He doesn’t think he is a very important person.C. He doesn’t consider himself to be very successful.D. He doesn’t think that being rich deserves so much attention.【答案】16．B17．A18．B19．D20．D【解析】试题分析：文章介绍钱对人们的意义，钱只是手段，不是我们追求的目标，钱不能代表任何东西，人们对钱应该有清楚的认识。
