The idea is to get people fit and reduce their carbon footprint. Guests will have to produce at least 10 watt hours of electricity — roughly 15 minutes of cycling for someone of average fitness. Guests staying at Plaza Hotel will be given meal tickets worth $ 36 once they have produced 10 watt hours of electricity. The bicycles will have smart phones attached to the handlebars measuring how much power is being generated for the hotel.The plan, a world-first, will start on 19 April and run for a year. Only guests staying at the hotel will be able to take part. Frederikke Toemmergaard，hotel spokeswoman, said, “Many of our visitors are business p eople who enjoy going to the gym. There might be people who will cycle just to get a free meal, but generally I don’t think people will take advantage of our programme.”Copenhagen has a long-standing cycling tradition and 36 % of locals cycle to work each day, one of the highest percentages in the world, according to the website visitcopenhagen. dk. US environmental website treehugger. com recently voted Copenhagen the world’s best city for cyclists. “Because Copenhagen is strongly connected with cycling, we felt the bicycle would work well as a symbol of the hotel’s green profile (形象).”If successful，the electric bicycle meal programme will be spread to all Crowne Plaza hotels in the UK, the hotel said in a statement.4．What is the main purpose of the free meal programme?A．To promote the hotel’s green concept.B．To make the city known to the world.C．To attract people to the hotel restaurant.D．To get guests to stay longer at the hotel.5．How can a participant get a free meal?A．By becoming a professional cyclist.B．By cycling to produce some electricity.C．By linking a smart phone to a bicycle.D．By monitoring his or her carbon footprint.6．Who are most likely to enter for the programme?A．The poor local people.B．The environment activists.C．Health-conscious hotel guests.D．Visitors fond of Copenhagen food.7．According to Paragraph 3, Copenhagen has one of the world’s .A．best chain hotelsB．greenest natural environmentsC．longest bike pathsD．highest rates of people cycling to workCFirst of all，students should respect their teachers. They should pay attention in class. That means saluting（向……致敬）the teacher，standing from your chair when the teacher enters the classroom，attending any lesson attentively，etc. In the class of a certain subject or a teacher you don't like very much，if it's total anarchy（混乱），how can we talk about respect？Play by the rulesIf your teacher wants you to use wide-lined paper，do it！If he/she tells you to sharpen your pencils only before class starts，listen tohim/her. If he/she doesn't accept late homework，do yours on time. Sometimes classroom rules seem strict or even silly，but most teachers know what's necessary to make things run smoothly and what it takes to let the learning begin. And the better the learning environment is，the smarter you'll be！Expect him/her to like youTeachers are teachers because they like kids. Given the chance, most teachers want to be your friends too. Respect your teacher, but don't be afraid of him/her. He/She wants you to have a great school year just as much as you want to have!Put first things firstFriends are a fun part of school. But sometimes they' re not the most important part. When your teacher is teaching, give him/her your full attention. Even when it's hard to do — recess will come soon, and that's the time for playing with your friends. 8．Which of the following would be the best title for the text?A．Advice Before You Go to SchoolB．What You Should Do at SchoolC．How to Get Along with Your TeacherD．How to Plan Your Time at School9．What do you think the title“Play by the rules”means?A．Don't play if you haven't completed your homework.B．Follow what the teacher says.C．Work is work and play is play.D．Make the learning environment as good as possible.10．According to the last paragraph，what do you think the first thing is？A．The teacher.B．The teacher's lecture.C．The students.D．Friends.11．The underlined word“recess”in the last paragraph most probablymeans“___________”.A．break B．playC．parents D．newsDI’m a real book lover. E very time my friends visit me, my nose is buried in a book. Wherever I go, I always have a book with me. Novels, history books, stories about people, journals and news—I read them all and I’ve learnt a lot, too. For example, many things in life happen for the best even if we don’t like or understand them.Why is reading such an enjoyable pastime for me? I probably first learned about it from my parents. My mother read to me at night in my childhood and bought me pictur e books. The greatest gift she has given me is a love for reading. And it will be a life-long habit.No one ever asked me why I liked to read. They just saw me and asked, “Oh? Is that for school work?” And I just shook my head, “No. It’s just for fun.” While reading a good book, I can totally f orget myself and fly to another world. It’s like exploring through someone’s eyes, which is just as exciting as watching a movie.Reading is also necessary in order to learn about writing, to improve my use of words and phrases and broaden my knowledge. What a pity to see our imagination disappear, for we don’t exercise it often. Reading can even be good for one’s health, I think. Everyone should read sad stories that make us cry and also books with humor that make us laugh out loud!12．Among the gifts my parents have given me, which is the most valuable one? A．A love for reading.B．Picture books.C．Good health.D．A lovable pastime.13．In the fourth paragraph, the author thinks reading can ____.A．make his parents happy B．finish his school workC．improve writing and broaden knowledge D．help him understand some movies 14．If we don’t use our imagination often, ____.A．it is bad for our health B．we will soon learn how to writeC．it will help us to have a good rest D．it will soon disappear15．What does the passage mainly talk about?A．Why do I have few friends?B．What are my life habits?C．Why do I love reading?D．Why do things happen for the best?第二节（共5小题，每小题3分，满分15分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

However, most of the 41 that a student would gain out of a basic education in art are almost unbelievable.There has been years of research 42 in the importance of art education and what art education goals are. The studies prove that what students gain out of an art education is almost43 , where any other course is concerned.A child whose parents are rich will naturally and very often be 44 to art, whether it is in the form of art pieces hanging at home or visits to fashionable art museums etc. This has again been seen over the years by researchers. At the same time, it has been noticed that exposure to art is something that is very 45 for children who belong to families with little money and they end up spending their childhood without forming any 46 with art.Art education goals in school therefore should be that 47 exposure to the wonders of art should be given to all students, whatever age group and whatever their family backgrounds are, because one never knows where talent might be 48 .However, art education goals have been slipping away from our education system for more twenty years now as people have begun to pay less importance to the 49 of art in their children’s lives. The reasons for this could be 50 budgets as well as stuffing of curriculum in classrooms s part of State mandates. Whatever these unfortunate reasons are, people have to once again realize art education goals and how they can actually be helping each student.III.

One of the most exciting scientific 52 is artificial intelligence (人工智能，AI). This is an area in which scientists are working on 53 machines that think like humans.54 , one of the most famous scientists has a very dark 55 about this type of technology.“The development of full artificial intelligence could spell the 56 of the human race,” said Professor Stephen Hawking to the BBC.Hawking is a well-known British physicist and the author of the bestselling science book A Brief History of Time. He gave his warning after 57 on the technology he uses to speak with. As Hawking 58 from a serious disease called ALS, he needs an AI puter to 59 . The puter learns how Hawking thinks and suggests the 60 he may want to use next.This is a basic type of AI, and is very useful, yet Hawking fears the possibility of creating technology that can 61 or surpass (超过) human intelligence. And it’s easy to 62 how terrible things may be. Many TV shows and films display big, killer machines that are far cleverer than us. “Humans, who are limited by slow biological evolution, couldn’t pete ,” said Ha wking.But not every scientist is 63 about AI technology. “I believe we will remain64 the technology for a long time,” said Rollo Carpenter, the UK-based creator of Cleverbot, a software program that remembers past conversations. “The65 of it tosolve many of the world’s problems will be realized.”In what direction do you think AI is heading? Should we be hopeful or fearful?51. A. richer B. easier C. busier D. worse52. A. fields B. models C. businesses D. lessons53. A. discovering B. delivering C. creating D. examining54. A. Therefore B.

A. potential B. talent C. performance D. responsibilitySection B (22%)Directions: Read the following three passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. 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)Tidying up the carMY younger daughter, Lauren, has a new car and she has managed to keep it spotlessly clean since she bought it in July.Lauren’s old car was messy. It was essentially a large garbage dump on wheels. I must admit that the apple doesn’tfall far from the tree because until I got my present car, all of my many automobiles had been messy too.The worst thing about her car was that it took on water every time it rained. No one could ever find the source of the leak, which created a pool on the floor of the front passenger side. It also created tides: When I drove uphill, the water rushed to the back. When I drove downhill, the water rushed to the front.Four years ago, when I turned 50, I got a new car. I turned over a new leaf and, for the first time since I got my driver’s license, cleaned up my act. I gave my old car, which contained old leaves, to my wife, who in turn gave her car to Lauren. It’s the one Lauren was driving – and filling with so much stuff that there was barely enough room in the back seat for her little dog, Maggie – until she got her new car.A few weeks ago, Lauren decided to go car shopping. She went to a Volkswagen dealership because she had her eye on a Jetta. She had her other eye on my wallet.Anyway, she saw a xx model, which was shown to her by an automotive associate named Anthony. He spent a lot of time with Lauren each of the three or four times she visited the dealership, let me test-drive the car when I went to see it, and didn’t put any pressure on any of us. In short, Anthony gave used car salesmen a good name.But he was no match for Lauren when it came to negotiating the price, which he lowered to what she said she could afford and not a penny more.So now, at 25, which is half the age I was when I cleaned up my act, Lauren has done the same. Her car has been clean for almost three months. Even the dog is impressed.The downside (负面) is that my wife’s car is messy. And shewants a new one, too.66.By saying “I must admit that the apple doesn’t fall far from the tree”, the author means that______.A. it’s mon for pe ople to keep their old automobiles m essyB. Lauren’s old car was messy because she didn’t like it at allC. he found it hard to figure out why Lauren’s old car was always messyD. the author used to treat his car the way Lauren treated her old car before he got his present one67.What was th e biggest problem with Lauren’s old car?A. There was something wrong with the front passenger side.B. Leaks in the car created a lot of problems on rainy days.C. It was always over-packed and had barely enough room in the back seat.D. Its engine didn’t work well, making it hard to drive uphill or downhill.68.Which adjective best describes the writer’s tone in the article?A. Excited.B. Critical.C. Humorous.D. Doubtful.（B）There have always been a lot of monly believed but false ideas about being fat and doing exercise. Some people believe that they can’t help putting on weight as they get older, while others hold that if they stop exercising, their muscles will turn into fat. Here are some more myths:I’ll nev er lose weight – I e from a fat familyWrong! While we can’t change the body type we are born with, we can’t blame our genes for making us fat. There’s plenty of evidence that fatness runs in families, and the main reason is that they share the same habit of eating too much and exercise too little.I am fat because I burn calories slowlyWrong! Fatness is not caused by a slow metabolism (新陈代谢). In fact, although fat people consume more energy than slim people, they also fail to realize how much they eat. Keeping a diary can help you work out your daily food intake more accurately.Exercise is boringWrong! Anything will bee boring if you do it repetitively. The key is to develop a balanced and varied program that’s fun as well as progressive. If you enjoy a Sunday walk, take a different route. If you do yoga, try a tai chi class. If you like swiping, set yourself a distance or time challenge.No pain, no gainWrong! Exercise is not meant to hurt. Indeed, pain is your body telling you something’s wrong, and continuing to exercise could lead to serious injury. You may experience mild disfort as you begin to exercise regularly, but this is your body adapting to the positive changes in your lifestyle and the aches should disappear relatively quickly. If they don’t, rest and seek medical advice.69.What does the author think about being fat?A. It is the family genes that make people fat.B. People are fat because they consume too little energy.C. A diary of exercise can prevent people from being fat.D. It is the c onsequence of people’s unbalanced l ifestyle.70.According to the author, how can we make exercise more interesting?A. By taking varied exercise.B. By choosing simple exercise.C. By doing regular exercise.D. By sticking to outdoor exercise.71.What is the aut hor’s opinion about “No pain, no gain” in exercising?A. Keeping fit is essentially a painful experience.B. Exercise should be stopped if continuous pain is felt.C. Pain in exercise is a precondition for reaching your goal.D. Getting used to pain leads to positive changes in your body.72.What is the purpose of the passage?A. To declare the importance of keeping fit.B. To clarify some misconceptions about fatness and exercise.C. To confirm what has long been believed about keeping fit.D. To explain some medical facts about being fat and doing exercise.（C）Experiences change usWANT to improve your life? Then do something awesome.According to a recent article in The Wall Street Journal, researchers have found that awe-inspiring experiences improve our prosocial behaviors, making us more generous and more humble. Awe-inspiring experiences make us more empathetic, allowi ng us to recognize another person’s emotional expressions better and respond with concern. And they make us more willing to engage with trust and connect with others.What kind of experiences can be called “awe-inspiring”? The examples mentioned by the journal include scuba diving, witnessing the birth of a child, watching a meteor (流星) shower, and visiting a forest. A man said he found it awe-inspiring to work with homeless people and witness their courage and kindness. Awe is an emotional response to something very large, says the article, and it challenges and expands our way of seeing the world.But the feeling of awe is felt differently by different individuals, and for different reasons. The deep blue ocean might inspire different feelings in a poet than in a fisherman, for example. According to an article in The Atlantic, a xx study from Stanford University investigated several aspects of awe and came to an interesting conclusion: the feeling of awe changes the way you think about time. The study says an awe-inspiring experience is a moment so overwhelming (无法抗拒的) that time seems to stand still.When you look at or experience something awesome, like looking at a waterfall or a sky filled with stars, your mind is fixed on the present moment. Time seems to slow down, the Stanford researchers concluded, making you feel like you have more of it to spare. This makes you feel more patient, less materialistic, and more willing to help others.Other researchers believe awe is powerful because it takes us out of our own heads. “Awe makes our individual identity less important and gets us to think about things bigger than ourselves,” Paul Piff, assistant professor of p sychology at the University of California, told The Wall Street Journal. Piff has found that many simple things in life inspire awe –listening to a piece of music you haven’t heard before, going on a nature hike, or going to a pop concert. All you need to do is start noticingand marveling (对……惊叹) at the world around you.73.The underlined word “empathetic” in Paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to ______.A. tolerantB. enthusiasticC. independentD. understanding74.The following things are mentioned as awe-inspiring experiences EXCEPT ______.A. scuba diving or witnessing the birth of a childB. watching a meteor shower or visiting a forestC. listening to your favorite music or going to a pop concertD. looking at a waterfall or going on a nature hike75.How do awe-inspiring experiences change the way people think about time and make them moreprosocial, according to the research?A. By changing their emotional response to something large.B. By making them more focused on the present moment.C. By making them realize that life is too short to waste.D. By inspiring them to face the challenges ahead of them.76.According to Paul Piff, ______.A. awe is beneficial for social harmonyB. awe often es in an unexpected wayC. only adventurous experiences inspire aweD. awe makes us more confident in ourselvesIV.

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 read.(1)During the 1990s, I had spent five months in a bleak African country, Niger. There were many things I found difficult about that place the beggars were my biggest most constant gripes. They would continually thrust their hands into my face, shouting," Cadeau! Cadeau!"(gift in French)After I had finished my nursing stint there, a friend and I headed for neighbouring Burkina Faso to work in a health clinic with much enthusiasm. "It's much greener in Burkina. Even the Coke tastes better," the locals assured us.Arriving by taxi in our destination in Burkina, we began to unload. With my daypack wedged between my legs, I reached for my larger piece of luggage. Out of the darkness, a motorcycle with two men approached slowly. Without warning, one of the men grabbed my daypack as the motorcycle swept close by and disappeared into the night. The bag had my passport, money traveller's checks, camera in it. I was in deep trouble and the nearest Australian consulate(领事馆) was in Ethiopia. How was I ever going to get a new passport anytime soon?In the weeks that followed, I guarded the rest of my valuables and regarded the locals with suspicion. All I wanted was to leave that terrible place.Then walking through the Burkina's streets one day, an old woman approached me and thrust her hand in my face. "Dear lady Cadeau! Cadeau!" she cried. I had enough. I told her firmly in French," I have no 'cadeau'. I have no money. A thief stole all my money and now I can't get out of your country. I can't give you anything." The beggar woman listened attentively and pondered my words. Then her face crumpled into a toothless grin as she reached into the folds of her dress. "Then I will give you a cadeau," she announced. Kindly, she placed an old dark brown coin in my palm. I looked at it in shock. It was a minuscule amount of money but for this woman the coin represented a meal. At that moment, I felt the shame of affluence and the humility of charity. She had given me a gift disproportionate to anything that I had ever donated.In the midst of her poverty, she was able to give me something priceless. I saw then, the unexpected beauty of the people and appreciated profoundly the quiet dignity of the poor.56. The underlined word minuscule in the passage is closest in meaning to .A. unbelievableB. tinyC. unclearD. ordinary57. Which of the following Statements is NOT TRUE according to the passage?A. The writer plained most about beggars in Niger.B. The writer was an Australian citizen.C. Two motorists grabbed the writer's valuables out of a sudden.D The writer still treated the locals fairly after the loss of the bag.58. The writer had a different thought about charity becauseA. she became too poor herself to help othersB. a local poor lady offered her money out of her scarce ownC. the writer got her bag back with the help of the local ladyD. a local lady gave the writer much more money than she had donated(2)59.

We get to barbecue the food that we buy in the RGS General Office.B. You can choose to dunk any teacher in the school at the 'Slam Dunk' stall.C. You will have two chances at the lucky dip if you purchase $40 worth of coupons.D. You can win attractive prizes if you try your hand at the game machines in the Arcade er.61. The main aim of the RGS Carnival is toA. select the best RGS activityB. showcase the pupils' musical talentC. test hearts of participants with haunted housesD. raise funds for the school's CIPF(3)The amazon is the largest and most diverse rain forest in the world-about 10 percent of all known species on earth dwell there. But it wasn't until recently that researchers were about to see the 'big picture' of the vast rain forest.The new findings? Almost 400 billion trees belonging to 16,000 different types grow in theAmazon. More than 100 experts analyzed data from 1,170 surveys to e up with the figures.The vast size and difficult terrain (地形) of the Amazon basin has historically restricted studies of tree munities to a local or regional level, making it difficult to see the big picture. This lack ofinformation has hindered science and conservation efforts, according to experts.The new findings, published in the journal Science, provide the first estimates of the abundance, frequency and distribution of many thousands of Amazonian trees. Extrapolations based on the data, collected over 10 years, suggest that greater Amazonia is home to around 390 billion individual trees. The area covered includes the amazon Basin and the Guiana Shield, spanning an area roughly the size of the 48 adjoining U.S. States.While around 16,000 types of trees are believed to exist in the Amazon, half the total number ofthe types are thought to belong to just 227 species, including Brazil nut, chocolate and rubber. "This isvery valuable information for further research and policy making," said research co-author Dr. Hans ter Steege, from the Netherlands.The study also offers insights into the rarest tree species in the Amazon. According to a mathematical model used in the study, roughly 6,000 Amazonnian tree types have populations of fewer than one thousand. This would automatically qualify them for inclusion in the International Union for Conservation of Nature Red List of Threatened Species(CNRLTS)-if they could be found and identified.U.S. ecologist and co-author of the study, Professor Miles Silman said," Species too rare to find account for much of the planet's biodiversity. It's a real problem for conservation that the species at the greatest risk of extinction may disappear before we ever find them. It's a concem for the whole human race."62. The underlined word hinder is closest in meaning toA. generatedB. blockedC. sponsoredD. improved63. According to the passage, what made the collection of species information so difficult?A. The lack of experienced professionals in the field.B. The dangers of certain types of species.C. The big area and plicated geographic situation.D. The unfavourable government law in the field.64. Which of the following statements is TRUE?A. The amazon rain forest covers 10 percent of the world's dry land.B. The conservation of amazon has been done well.C. About 8000 types of trees belong to over 220 species.D. About 6000 Amazonnian tree types have died out.65. The species conservation was made difficult byA. the negative climate of the amazon landB. the possibility of dying of rare speciesC. the lack of conservation fundD. the human beings' lack of concernVI．Translation(]0％)Directions：Translate the following sentences into English，using the word or phrase given in the brackets．1．很难相信他在这么艰苦的环境中活了下来。

Do note that there is one word more than you need.It is believed that in such a petitive age, art education is close to an unnecessary part in schools today. However, most of the 41 that a student would gain out of a basic education in art are almost unbelievable.There has been years of research 42 in the importance of art education and what art education goals are. The studies prove that what students gain out of an art education is almost43 , where any other course is concerned.A child whose parents are rich will naturally and very often be 44 to art, whether it is in the form of art pieces hanging at home or visits to fashionable art museums etc. This has again been seen over the years by researchers. At the same time, it has been noticed that exposure to art is something that is very 45 for children who belong to families with little money and they end up spending their childhood without forming any 46 with art.Art education goals in school therefore should be that 47 exposure to the wonders of art should be given to all students, whatever age group and whatever their family backgrounds are, because one never knows where talent might be 48 .However, art education goals have been slipping away from our education system for more twenty years now as people have begun to pay less importance to the 49 of art in their children’s lives. The reasons for this could be 50 budgets as well as stuffing of curriculum in classrooms s part of State mandates. Whatever these unfortunate reasons are, people have to once again realize art education goals and how they can actually be helping each student.III.

One of the most exciting scientific 52 is artificial intelligence (人工智能，AI). This is an area in which scientists are working on 53 machines that think like humans.54 , one of the most famous scientists has a very dark 55 about this type of technology.“The development of full artificial intelligence could spell the 56 of the human race,” said Professor Stephen Hawking to the BBC.Hawking is a well-known British physicist and the author of the bestselling science book A Brief History of Time. He gave his warning after 57 on the technology he uses to speak with. As Hawking 58 from a serious disease called ALS, he needs an AI puter to 59 . The puter learns how Hawking thinks and suggests the 60 he may want to use next.This is a basic type of AI, and is very useful, yet Hawking fears the possibility of creating technology that can 61 or surpass (超过) human intelligence. And it’s easy to 62 how terrible things may be. Many TV shows and films display big, killer machines that are far cleverer than us. “Humans, who are limited by slow biological evolution, couldn’t pete ,” said Ha wking.But not every scientist is 63 about AI technology. “I believe we will remain64 the technology for a long time,” said Rollo Carpenter, the UK-based creator of Cleverbot, a software program that remembers past conversations. “The65 of it to solve many of the world’s problems will be realized.”In what direction do you think AI is heading?

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)Tidying up the carMY younger daughter, Lauren, has a new car and she has managed to keep it spotlessly clean since she bought it in July.Lauren’s old car was messy. It was essentially a large garbage dump on wheels. I must admit that the apple doesn’t fall far from the tree because until I got my present car, all of my many automobiles had been messy too.The worst thing about her car was that it took on water every time it rained. No one could ever find the source of the leak, which created a pool on the floor of the front passenger side. It also created tides: When I drove uphill, the water rushed to the back. When I drove downhill, the water rushed to the front.Four years ago, when I turned 50, I got a new car. I turned over a new leaf and, for the first time since I got my driver’s license, cleaned up my act. I gave my old car, which contained old leaves, to my wife, who in turn gave her car to Lauren. It’s the one Lauren was driving – and filling with so much stuff that there was barely enough room in the back seat for her little dog, Maggie – until she got her new car.A few weeks ago, Lauren decided to go car shopping. She went to a Volkswagen dealership because she had her eye on a Jetta. She had her other eye on my wallet.Anyway, she saw a xx model, which was shown to her by an automotive associate named Anthony. He spent a lot of time with Lauren each of the three or four times she visited the dealership, let me test-drive the car when I went to see it, and didn’t put any pressure on any of us. In short, Anthony gave used car salesmen a good name.But he was no match for Lauren when it came to negotiating the price, which he lowered to what she said she could afford and not a penny more.So now, at 25, which is half the age I was when I cleaned up my act, Lauren has done the same. Her car has been clean for almost three months. Even the dog is impressed.The downside (负面) is that my wife’s car is messy. And she wants a new one, too.66.By saying “I must admit that the apple doesn’t fall far from the tree”, the author means that______.A. it’s mon for pe ople to keep their old automobiles messyB. Lauren’s old car was messy because she didn’t like it at allC. he found it hard to figure out why Lauren’s old car was always messyD. the author used to treat his car the way Lauren treated her old car before he got his present one67.What was the biggest problem with Lauren’s old car?A. There was something wrong with the front passenger side.B. Leaks in the car created a lot of problems on rainy days.C. It was always over-packed and had barely enough room in the back seat.D. Its engine didn’t work well, making it hard to drive uphill or downhill.68.Which adjective best describes the writer’s tone in the article?A. Excited.B. Critical.C. Humorous.D. Doubtful.（B）There have always been a lot of monly believed but false ideas about being fat and doing exercise. Some people believe that they can’t help putting on weight as they get older, while others hold that if they stop exercising, their muscles will turn into fat. Here are some more myths:I’ll nev er lose weight – I e from a fat familyWrong! While we can’t change the body type we are born with, we can’t blame our genes for making us fat. There’s plenty of evidence that fatness runs in families, and the main reason is that they share the same habit of eating too much and exercise too little.I am fat because I burn calories slowlyWrong! Fatness is not caused by a slow metabolism (新陈代谢). In fact, although fat people consume more energy than slim people, they also fail to realize how much they eat. Keeping a diary can help you work out your daily food intake more accurately.Exercise is boringWrong! Anything will bee boring if you do it repetitively. The key is to develop a balanced and varied program that’s fun as well as progressive. If you enjoy a Sunday walk, take a different route. If you do yoga, try a tai chi class. If you like swiping, set yourself a distance or time challenge.No pain, no gainWrong! Exercise is not meant to hurt. Indeed, pain is your body telling you something’s wrong, and continuing to exercise could lead to serious injury. You may experience mild disfort as you begin to exercise regularly, but this is your body adapting to the positive changes in your lifestyle and the aches should disappear relatively quickly.

Then do something awesome.According to a recent article in The Wall Street Journal, researchers have found that awe-inspiring experiences improve our prosocial behaviors, making us more generous and more humble. Awe-inspiring experiences make us more empathetic, allowi ng us to recognize another person’s emotional expressions better and respond with concern. And they make us more willing to engage with trust and connect with others.What kind of experiences can be called “awe-inspiring”? The examples mentioned by the journal include scuba diving, witnessing the birth of a child, watching a meteor (流星) shower, and visiting a forest. A man said he found it awe-inspiring to work with homeless people and witness their courage and kindness. Awe is an emotional response to something very large, says the article, and it challenges and expands our way of seeing the world.But the feeling of awe is felt differently by different individuals, and for different reasons. The deep blue ocean might inspire different feelings in a poet than in a fisherman, for example. According to an article in The Atlantic, a xx study from Stanford University investigated several aspects of awe and came to an interesting conclusion: the feeling of awe changes the way you think about time. The study says an awe-inspiring experience is a moment so overwhelming (无法抗拒的) that time seems to stand still.When you look at or experience something awesome, like looking at a waterfall or a sky filled with stars, your mind is fixed on the present moment. Time seems to slow down, the Stanford researchers concluded, making you feel like you have more of it to spare. This makes you feel more patient, less materialistic, and more willing to help others.Other researchers believe awe is powerful because it takes us out of our own heads. “Awe makes our individual identity less important and gets us to think about things bigger than ourselves,” Paul Piff, assistant professor of psychology at the University of California, told The Wall Street Journal. Piff has found that many simple things in life inspire awe –listening to a piece of music you haven’t heard before, going on a nature hike, or going to a pop concert. All you need to do is start noticing and marveling (对……惊叹) at the world around you.73.The underlined word “empathetic” in Paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to ______.A. tolerantB. enthusiasticC. independentD. understanding74.The following things are mentioned as awe-inspiring experiences EXCEPT ______.A. scuba diving or witnessing the birth of a childB. watching a meteor shower or visiting a forestC. listening to your favorite music or going to a pop concertD. looking at a waterfall or going on a nature hike75.How do awe-inspiring experiences change the way people think about time and make them moreprosocial, according to the research?A. By changing their emotional response to something large.B. By making them more focused on the present moment.C. By making them realize that life is too short to waste.D. By inspiring them to face the challenges ahead of them.76.According to Paul Piff, ______.A. awe is beneficial for social harmonyB. awe often es in an unexpected wayC. only adventurous experiences inspire aweD. awe makes us more confident in ourselvesIV.

But it is true that kung fu is a big part of Chinese culture.Like most people from the West，I was first introduced to kung fu through Hong Kong action films.Stars like Bruce Lee and Jackie Chan made kung fu popular in the Western world.The flashy and impressive performances they gave in films like Rumble in the Bronx and Enter the Dragon made them household names in the U.S.and elsewhere.However，my own personal interest in kung fu was actually inspired by a hip hop group.Wu-Tang Clan，founded in the early 1990s in New York City，is one of the most influential hip hop groups in history.In their songs，they sometimes mention philosophical concepts that come from Wudang quan—a classic Chinese martial art（武术）from which they take their name—and Shaolin Temple.I was just a teenager when I first started listening to Wu-Tang Clan—little did I know that I would actually end up living in China later in my life!I myself do not practice kung fu.However，the concepts（理念）behind it are quite interesting to me.There is a Bruce Lee quote that I often think of when I’m struggling with challenges in life.“Be formless，shapeless，like water，”he once said.By this，he meant that you should be ready to adapt to and change your attitudes or beliefs when you face difficulties.I think this is a good way to deal with life.24.What does “a silly belief” in Paragraph 1 refer to?A.All Chinese people can do kung fu.B.China is most famous for its kung fu.C.Kung fu is a big part of Chinese culture.D.Many Westerners admire kung fu.25.What inspired the author’s interest in kung fu?A.Hong Kong action movies.B.A TV program about kung fu.C.Kung fu stars in Hollywood.D.A US hip hop group.26.What do we know about the Wu-Tang Clan?A.They have Chinese culture in their songs.B.They taught the author how to do Wudang quan.C.They performed Chinese martial arts in the U.S.D.They showed the author the way to live in China.27.What can we learn from the last paragraph?A.The author was sorry that he couldn’t do kung fu.B.The concepts of kung fu change over time.C.The spirit of kung fu helps the author overcome difficulties.D.Bruce Lee was the most popular martial arts master.CIn October，I told the eight-year-olds in the class I taught about my plan.“I’d like all of you to do extra jobs around the house to earn some money，”I said.“Then we’ll buy food for a dinner for someone who might not have a nice dinner otherwise.”I hoped th ey could experience a sense of their own power to make a difference.Early in the morning，they arrived in class with their hard-earned money.And now they couldn’t wait to go shopping.At last we headed toward the checkout（收银台），pushing a cart（购物车）filled with food and all the decorations.Then someone spotted（发现）a “necessity”that sent them cheering：a pot of chrysanthemums(菊花).It was more reasonable to use any extra money to buy food.After all，I pronounced，“You can’t eat flowers.”But the children insisted and placed the purple plant into the cart.An agency had given us the name and address of a needy grandmother who had lived alone for years.Soon we were arriving at her house.Between the laughing and those flowers，I wasn’t sure that any lesson about giving and receiving was getting through.We finally pulled up in front of a small house in the woods.A woman with a tired face came to the door to welcome us.As my little group carried the boxes of food in，she oohed and aahed—much to her visitors’pleasure.When Amy put the flowers on the counter，the woman seemed surprised.She was wishing it was a bag of flour，I thought.We returned to the car.As we fastened our seat belts（安全带），we could see the kitchen window.The woman inside waved goodbye，then turned and walked across the room，past the food，straight to the chrysanthemums.She put her face in the plant.When she raised her head，there was a smile on her face.The children were quiet.In that moment，they had seen for themselves the power to make another’s life better.28.The author gave the students the task in order to ________.A.help them focus on their family happinessB.let them experience their ability to help othersC.teach them the necessity of doing houseworkD.get them to know how to be financially independent29.What’s the author’s attitude to buying some flowers at first?A.Positive.B.Negative.C.Cautious.D.Enthusiastic.30.What did the children realize at the end of the visit?A.They could help improve others’life.B.They could make a living by working.C.It was necessary to do voluntary work.D.Plants and birds could help lonely people.31.What is the best title for the text?A.My Teaching CareerB.How to Help Poor PeopleC.The Importance of GivingD.A Happy Shopping ExperienceDWe’ve all e xperienced it. We invite a friend to dinner, only to learn that she is a Vegan. Vegan is someone who allows a diet that contains no animal meat, fish, eggs, dairy products, or any other food that comes from animals. They differ from vegetarians, who generally still eat dairy and eggs as part of their diets. Vegans also typically refuse to use any other products that come from animals, such as honey and leather jackets.Back in 2008, vegans only accounted for（占..比例）around 0.5 percent of the U.S. population, or about one million people. As of a survey taken in 2014, vegans now make up roughly 2.5 percent of the population. At least in the United States, women seem to be far bigger fans of veganism, making up around 79 percent of vegans.People on a vegan diet tend to be leaner. In a study of nearly 40,000 adults, meat eaters had the highest mean body mass index, or BML.Vegetarians were in the middle, and vegans had the lowest. Based on several studies from Finland, some scientists have suggested that vegan diets may be helpful in the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis(类风湿性关节炎). Vegans also appear to have lower rates of hypertension(高血压) than both meat eaters and vegetarians. Vegans also typically have lower cardio metabolic(心脏代谢) risks for conditions like heart disease or strokes.While there certainly may be some health advantages in going vegan, there seems to be some common deficiencies（缺陷）in the diet. One of these deficiencies is with the vitamin B-12. The ADA states that there are no natural plant foods that contain any significant amount of the vitamin. Vegans can still get it, but they need to take a vitamin or consume fortified foods like soy milk and certain breakfast cereals. Omega-3 fatty acids (欧米珈-3脂肪酸) are also very difficult to come by on a vegan diet, but this can be overcome through the consumption of algae(海藻) supplements. With vegans requiring supplementation to meet their nutritional needs, it supports the claim that veganism is unnatural, but that doesn’t necessarily mean its unhealthy.Many health organizations, including the ADA, state that well-planned vegan diets are healthy and nutritionally adequate, and may provide health benefits in the prevention and treatment of certain diseases.It seems like no matter what your dietary preferences are, a healthy lifestyle can be achieved on or off a vegan diet.32. Which example illustrates he/she is a vegan?A. His/Her diet is made up of large amounts of plant-based carbohydrates.B. He/She eats meat on special occasions, usually pork, as well as small amounts of fish on a weekly basis.C. He/She believes small amounts of animal products are vital to good health, and they insist on eating them every day.D. He/She fries French fries by animal oil.33. Which statement is TRUE according to the passage?A. Finland is the leading country in the world to study veganism.B. Vegetarians had the highest mean BMI.C. Vegan diets may be helpful in the treatment of cancer.D. The number of vegan in the U.S.is on the rise.34. Vitamin B-12 can be got from ________.A. various vegetablesB. soy milk and cerealsC. waterD. sunbath35. What is the writer's attitude towards going vegan?A. ObjectiveB. SubjectiveC. CriticalD. Disapproval第二节（共5小题；每小題2.5分，満分12.5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。
