before，when this adventure first began．It was a cold October day．While leaving the school，my mother mentioned that shehad gone to the doctor that day．"What for？"I asked，becoming nervous so I （32）through all the problems in my mind．I wondered what problems my mother could possibly have．"Well…"She stopped and my worry （33）．"I'm pregnant．""You're what？""I am having a baby．"I was speechless．I

mother to have another child after she had me．This was a selfish feeling，but when it came to my mom，I was unwilling to share even the smallest bit of her．However，when I saw the joy in my parents'eyes，I could not help but feel excited and my joy showed on the outside．On the inside，though，I was trying to deal with my fear and anger．My parents involved me in all the （35），form decorating the nursery to picking out names and deciding that I could be present for the baby's birth．Though pregnancy brought excitement，it was （36）to hear people keep talking about the baby．I feared that I would be pushed back when the baby came．Sometimes when I was alone，the （37）was overcome（超越）by all the fear and anger for what this child would take from me．Sitting in the delivery room that June 17，knowing the baby would soon be here，I began to feel all my insecurities（不安全）surface．What was my life going to be like？Would it be one endless baby﹣sitting job？What would I have to give up？Most importantly，would I lose my mother？The time to think and worry was rapidly melting away（消散）．The baby was coming．It was the most unbelievable experience of my life，being in the delivery room that day，for birth is truly a miracle（奇迹），full of happiness and expectation．When the doctor said that it was a girl，I cried．I had a baby sister，Emma．All my fears and insecurities have passed now．I cannot explain how especial it is to have a （38）person who wakes up with me and wave her little hand good﹣bye to me as I leave for school．Now I realize there is plenty of love in my home for Emma．My fear and anger had been eased with the realization that she took away （39）．Instead，she brought so much to my life．I never thought I could love a baby this much，and I would not （40）the joy I get from being her

disappointed as he walked out of his 40th job interview．He couldn't believe he had failed 40interviews．He just finished his university study and needed to get a job fast．He was almost broke（身无分文的）．He decided that he would start a new project called"Living the Map"．He wanted to get 50jobs in 50states in only 50weeks．Daniel's idea may sound crazy，but it is really clever．Daniel said that one of his goals was to get as much job experience as possible．He was still not sure what kind o f job he really wanted．The best way to find out was to try out different types of jobs．So，he tried to get jobs that were related to each state's identity（特点）．For example，Michigan is famous for having a lot of car factories，so during his week in Michigan，he worked as a mechanic．Wisconsin is known for its cheese，so he was a cheese maker there．In Vermont he made maple syrup，and in Maryland he was a crab chef．Daniel not only had fun trying all kinds of interesting jobs，but he also made 60，000dollars and became famous．He plans to publish a book about what he learned from his project．In the beginning，Daniel wanted to get as much job experience as possible，but instead became famous﹣﹣﹣or was he hoping to become famous from the beginning？You decide．Whatever he had in mind，it looks like there are many more jobs in his future．45．How did Daniel feel after failing his 40th job

good for nothing？Then be careful，you are one of them who have bad relationship with failure．And this is the only reason why people often keep themselves away from their success．The power of failure is that it helps us to learn fro our mistakes and missteps and we must consider a failure as an opportunity to grow rather than giving up．Let's discover the reasons why successful people believe that opportunity lies in every failure．Disappointment or failure shows that you are tryingThe best way to gauge（衡量）your progress at something is to see how many times you failed．In case you haven't failed yet，chances are that you haven't tried hard yet．Look at all successful men and women throughout our history，they all had one thing in common．That's to say they failed not once but several times before they achieved success．Let's take an example of Thomas Edison：he failed a lot of times to find right filament（灯丝）for his light bulb．Henry Ford had a stronger relationship with failure，which inspired him to quote this unforgettable saying"failure is the opportunity to begin again，more intelligently．"Achievement lies in looking at failure as an opportunityJust like every successful person had one thing in common，similarly all unsuccessful persons throughout our history had one thing in common﹣﹣﹣their inability to use failure as an opportunity and a tool．If you feel your one failure is your ultimate （终极的）failure，and that feeling of sinking down is known as an ultimate failure，you are pushing yourself away from your expected success．Achievement is all about finding out what mistakes you made，what is the main cause of that failure，and how you are going to make up for it．Success requires willpower，passion，hard work，intelligence，determination，but all of the above，success requires failure．Use your failure as an opportunity to learn，to become wiser and to reconsider your relationship with failure，the true key to success．49．According to the writer，why do people keep themselves away from their success？A．Because they don't set long﹣term goals．B．Because they haven't got enough time．C．Because they can't deal with failure properly．D．Because they are disappointed in themselves．50．Why does the writer take the example of Thomas Edison？A．To explain the reasons for failure．B．To prove the importance of failure．C．To take pride in Thomas Edison．D．To introduce the process of making a light bulb．51．What can you learn from the passage？A．Failure can build up your confidence．B．Successful people seldom failed．C．Failure is more important than success．D．Successful people use failure as a tool．26．（8分）Michael Morpurgo is one of Britain's best loved story makers whose book War Horse is taught in school．He made a speech at Book Trust Annual Lecture．When talking about tests，he said that too much testing in schools was taking the joy out of reading for children because it destroyed their confidence and resulted in feelings of shame and disappointment．Mr．Morpurgo said testing was"supposed to encourage"all children，whether they passed or not，but his was not the case．"When you fail，it brings a sense of worthlessness．It separates you from those who have passed，rocks confidence，and destroys hopes and dreams．"For children who pass，they can have the opportunity to receive the great cultural and material benefits of our society through developing an enjoyment of reading．But for children who fail，they are made to feel that the world of books，stories and ideas is not for them，and they are not clever enough to join that world．It is not the world they belong to，and it is shut off from them forever．As the president of Book Trust，Mr．Morpurgo also criticized schools for taking the wonder of stories and playfulness of language．Schools have been teaching reading by turning stories into a series of comprehension and grammar tests，because they insist that measurable（可量化的）outcomes and results are the be﹣all and end ﹣all of the education process．But blaming （责备）governments or schools is passing the buck﹣﹣﹣it is a society as a whole that is responsible for whether its children succeed or fail in education，and everyone should make an effort to ensurethat reading itself is a pleasure experience for all children．Mr．Morpurgo，who was a primary teacher before becoming a writer，wants to see a"story time"introduces in every primary school，when stories are read aloud，at the end of each day．His Book Trust lecture called on schools and the governmemt to keep libriries open，for parents to read to their children every night，etc．"Story time"would be a special time with no testing or teaching．"Let the children go home dreaming of the story，reliving it，wonder…All the rest will come later．Once the seed is sown，the fore is lit，children will want to learn．So give them the love of story first；the rest will follow．"Diana Gerald，the co﹣worker of Book Trust，said，"Reading isn't a tick﹣list of books．That need to have been read；nor is it just a skill to be learned then put aside．The ability of reading and writing can，and should be tested；reading for pleasure needs to be valued and seen more like exercise﹣do it as regularly as you can，make it fun and red together whenever possible for maximum benefits．"52．What does the expression"passing the buck"in Paragraph 3probably mean？A．Valuable．B．Irresponsible．C．Unnecessary．D．Harmful．53．According to the passage，what should children do at their"story time"？A．Enjoy reading．B．Prepare for tests．C．Practise writing stories．D．Tick their book lists．54．Which of the following is Mr．Morpurgo's suggestion？A．Test should be canceled in schools．B．Children should join the Book Trust．C．Reading for pleasure should be encouraged．D．The government should build more libraries．55．Which of the following statements is TRUE？A．Mr．Morpurgo hopes to become a primary teacher．B．Children who are tested can't get the joy from reading．C．Mr．Morpurgo wants his book War Horse to be read often in schools．D．Chilrdren who fail in tests probably won't explore the wonder of stories．27．（10分）阅读短文，根据短文内容，从短文后的五个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项．每个选项只能用一次．Ramen noodles are yellow noodles that originally （源自于）came from China．They became a popular street food in JPn in the early 1900s．（56）．At that time，Japan did not have much food at all．Ramen was cheap and good，so more and more people began eating it．In the 1905s，Momofuku Ando，the man who started the Nissin fiid company in Japan，had an idea．（57）．People could pour hot water over these noodles，wait a few minutes，and then eat them．It would be instant（即食）ramen．It was not easy，but finally Ando came up with a way to make instant ramen．Japanese people loved it!Soon other companies were copying Ando's idea．（58）．Today，people all around the world enjoy ramen．In fact，people eat about 40billion bowls of ramen every year!But the story of ramen does not end there．（59）．in these restaurant，all kinds of meats and vegetables are being added to ramen．And people are choosing noodle bars over sushi bars for a nice dinner out these days．So whether you want traditional，quick，or fancy（精美的）ramen，you can find it．（60）．You won't miss it!A．He wanted to make dried ramen noodlesB．Ramen is now even served in many good restaurantsC．Just look on the street，in a store，or in a restaurant near youD．Not long after that，instant ramen spread to the other countriesE．Then，after World War II，ramen becmae even more popular in

dreams greater than flying me around to where I need to go．"The pilot said he did have bigger dreams．And then Buffett took him through a three﹣step process for prioritizing（优化），to decide which things are the most important and what ot start with．First，Buffett asked Flint to write down a list of twenty﹣five career goals．Flint took some time and wrote them down．Second，Buffett asked Flint to do some soul﹣searching and circle the five highest﹣priority goals on the list．Again，Flint took some time，made his way through the list and eventually decided on his five most important goals．At this point，Buffett asked，"but what about these other 20things on your list you didn't circle？What is your plan for completing those？"Flint replied confidently，"Well the five highest﹣priority goals are the most important but the other twehty come in at a close second．So I'll work on those twenty as well as I'm getting through my five highest﹣priority goals．"To Flint's surprise，Buffett said，"No．You've got it wrong．The third step is to take a good hard look at the 20goals．You should avoid them at all costs．They eat away time and energy，taking your eye from the goals than matter more．"It is a simple process but not always an easy one．We are in a world where there'smore competition for your focus（专注）than ever before．We have to guard it with our life．Without focus，without staying true to our priorities，we will not get done other things we try to fit in and get done what's most important to ourselves．Every behavior has a cost．But time and energy are limited．Successful people prioritize their most important goals and avoid things but take up time，energy and space that could be put toward better behavior or more important tasks．Once you've picked a goal，work towards it while ignoring（忽视）the things that will compete fpr ypur attention．61．Did Flint work for Buffett as a pilot？62．How many steps did Buffett take Flint through？63．What did Buffett ask flint to do first？64．What did Buffett advise Flint to do with the other 20goals？65．Why can prioritizing goals help people to achieve success？．九、文段表达15分29．（15分）假如你是李华，你想邀请外教Sam参加你家的除夕聚会，请你写一封邮件告诉他聚会的时间、地点，聚会上准备做些什么，以及他需要做哪些准备．提示词语：decorate，enjoy dinner，CCTV New Year's Gala，fireworks，wish提示问题：●When and where will you have your family

The passage is mainly about _________.A. the introduction of teenagers’holidayB. the experience of teenagers’holidayC. the purpose of teenagers’holidayD. the changes of teenagers’holidayDTechnology to Help Developing CountriesWhen we think about giving help to developing countries, we often think about giving money so that these countries can build schools and hospitals, buy food and medicine, or find clean water supplies. These seem to be the most important basic needs of the people we are trying to help. However, it’sfar from enough. Ladies and gentlemen, we’ve got to come up with some better ideas to help them.I was very surprised, then, when I read about a plan to make cheap laptop computersfor children in developing countries. A man called Nicholas Negroponte invented a cheaplaptop computer, which can run without electricity. He decided to invent this computer after he visited a school in Cambodia.The laptop which Mr.Negroponte has designed is a little different from the normal laptop computers you can buy in the shops. One difference is that it will be covered in rubber（橡胶）so that it is very strong and won’t be damaged easily. As an electricity supplycan be a problem in developing countries,the computer also has a special handle so that children can wind the computer up to give it extra power when needed.These special laptop computers will cost less than 100 US dollars and Mr. Negroponte wants to build as many as 15 million machines in the first year of production. The i dea is that these computers will help the children’seducation as they will be able to access the Internet. These computers might not help the people in developing countries immediately, but by improving children’s education they should help people to find their own solutions to their problems in the long term.Another idea to help children in developing countries is to recycle old mobile phones so that they can be used again. In the UK, and probably in many other countries too, millions of mobile phones are thrown away every year. The waste created by throwing away these old phones is very bad for the environment, so it seems to be an excellent idea to recycle them. In this way we will be able to achieve two important goals at the same time. We will redu ce the waste we produce and help others. In other words, we will be able to ―kill two birds with one stone‖, and that is always a good thing.53. The expression―be damaged in Paragraph 3 probably means―_________.A. be fixedB. be hurtC. be usedD. be broken54. From the passage we can learn thatthe cheap laptop__________.A. can help the developing countries with theelectricity supplyB. can be moved and carried with the help of a special handleC. can help the children’s education by surfing the InternetD. will be covered with rubber so that it can save money55. The writer may agreethat in developing countries these ideas can_________.A. help the children reduce waste and earn moneyB. be good for the environment and the educationC. help the children solve the problems at onceD. provide the basic needsforthe people there八、阅读短文，根据短文内容回答问题。

safe environment for animals which have been mistreated in circuses，or pets which have been given up and no longer wante D．Zoos also carry out important research into subjects like animal behavior and how to treat illness．circusOne of the most important modern functions of zoos is supporting international breeding （繁衍）programs，especially for endangered species （物种）．In the wild，some of the species have difficulty in finding mates and breeding，and they might also be hurt or even killed by people．A good zoo will enable these species to live and breed in a safe environment．In addition，as numbers of some wild species drop，there is an increased danger of populations becoming too genetically（基因上）similar．Breeding programs provide a safeguard：zoo bred animals can be put into the wild to increase genetic diversity．However，those people who are against zoos say that many zoo bred animals are not put back intothe wild．A lot of animals are sold not only to other zoos but also to circuses in the US or wild parks inSouth Africa，where some people are willing to pay a lot of money for the chance to kill a helplessanimal．Often，these animals are familiar with humans and have very little chance of escaping．So，are zoos good for animals or not？Perhaps it all depends on how well zoos are managed，and the benefits of zoos can surely outweigh their harmful effects．However，it is understandable thatmany people believe enclosing animals for any reason is simply wrong．27．According to Paragraph 2，some sea animals may die earlier than their wild relatives becauseA．they were born in the ocean parkB．they don't have enough living spaceC．they are forced to behave unnaturallyD．they suffer from family separation28．What is the main purpose of international breeding program？A．To increase genetic diversity．B．To protect mistreated animals．C．To free enclosed animals．D．To do research on animal behavior．29．What，s the author，s opinion of zoos？A．He doubts the value of zoos．B．He is a true supporter of all kinds of zoos．C．He is against the idea of having zoos aroundD．He sees the importance of the zoo management．17．（8分）The Rise of Artificial Intelligence （AI；人工智能）discusses AI technology and how it might affect humans in the future，but the future is already here．In 2011，America's Favorite Quiz Show held a competition between two men and an IBM computer named"Watson"．IBM describes Watson as"a technology that understands all forms of data and also reasons and learns．"Both men thought they could beat Watson．Instead，the computer and its Artificial Intelligence soundly bested both of the human beings．ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE MADE SIMPLEArtificial Intelligence generally refers to machines with human like intelligence，such as problem solving and learning．In order to be considered AI，the computer must pass the Turing test，named after Alan Turing，a British mathematician who worked with the first computers．In the 1950s，Turing published a paper questioning whether a computer could beused to trick humans into believing they were interacting（互动）with an actual human being．He found that if 30% of humans who interacted with a"machine"believed they were actually interacting with a human being，then the computer could be considered as AI．A simple example of AI is Apple，s Siri．Ask Siri to do anything，from calling a friend to booking a dinner table，and Siri can do it．Siri seems almost human．When you ask，"Are you a real person？"Siri answers，"That is a really personal question．" But，just because a system can behave like humans does not mean it can think like humans．Or，does it？JOINING OF HUMAN & MACHINEIt seems that our devices（设备）will turn into humans．Our phones already tell us to take an umbrella before we walk out the door．They volunteer traffic conditions so we know how long it will take to drive to work．Our devices can interact with us in a way that looks like a real conversation with another human being，like with Siri．It does not seem crazy at all to think that AI may be programmed to actually think．If it has not already happened，it likely will happen in the near future．Have we come to the time when computers and AI have caught up to human beings？Although computers have the ability to make our life better，is it possible that they may control and destroy human beings in the end？WHAT THE FUTURE HOLDSIt seems pretty clear that in the future，we're going to see a human machine hybrid．Humans will be stronger，live longer and be smarter．Ray Kurzweil，a computer scientist，believes that within 50years，the humans on Earth will be about 50to 80% robotic．There is no question that AI will be a part of every technology that humans create．Will it turn out to be more of a benefit to humankind or will it be a risk and threaten（威胁到）humanity as we know it？If AI is programmed according to Isaac Asimov's 3Laws of Robotics，humans won，t have a problem with machines；but for some，evil AI still stands in the way of a peaceful and safe life on earth．30．The story of computer Watson is mentioned here to tell us that．A．the age of machines has comeB．humans make their own enemiesC．AI has actually come into our lifeD．humans are playing a dangerous game31．From the passage we can learn that．A．Turing test was designed to examine the first computersB．machines interacting with humans can be called AIC．Siri can volunteer to book a dinner tableD．AI will help humans to be stronger and smarter32．What does the underlined expression"a human machine hybrid"probably mean？A．a machine with a human lookB．a human created by machinesC．a body part robotic part humanD．a robot that can behave like humans33．The passage is mainly about．A．the history and future of AIB．the advantages and disadvantages of AIC．the examples of AID．the competition between humans and AI．四、阅读短文，根据短文内容回答问题．（共10 分，每小题2 分）18．（10分）Albino PowerI was born an albino（白化病患者）in Scranton，Pennsylvania，in 1945．No one in my familyhad ever known what an albino was，what it meant to be an

living involved in the area I loved．I，ve done it now for more thanthirty years in print and in video，and now in cyberspace．People make jokes abouthow I，m the only"blind editor（编辑）"they know，but the jokes are friendly smiles now，and some of them are signsof respect．And I make jokes about being an albino．I have even developed an all white routine，ifyou could call it that．I was just a proud albino

Catching animals in the wild also causes much s uffering by separating families. Some oos mae animals behave unnaturally. For eample,ocean pars often force dolphinsand whales to perform. These sea animals dolphin may die years earlier than their wild relatives.On the other hand,by bringing people and animals together,oos can educate the public aboutanimal protection and encourage people to save animals and their homes. Some oos provide a safeenvironment for animals which have been mistreated in circuses,or pets which have been given upand no longer wante D. oos also carry out important research into subjects lie animal behaviorand how to treat illness.circusOne of the most important modern functions of oos is supporting international breeding (繁衍)programs,especially for endangered species (物种). In the wild,some of the species havedifficulty in finding mates and breeding,and they might also be hurt or even illed by people.A good oo will enable these species to live and breed in a safe environment. In addition,as numbers of some wild species drop,there is an increased danger of populations becoming too genetically(基因上)similar. Breeding programs provide a safeguardoo bred animals can be put into the wild to increase genetic diversity.However,those people who are against oos say that many oo bred animals are not put bac into the wild. A lot of animals are sold not only to other oos but also to circuses in the US or wildpars inSouth Africa,where some people are willing to pay a lot of money for the chance to ill a helpless animal. Often,these animals are familiar with humans and have very little chance of escaping.So,are oos good for animals or not?Perhaps it all depends on how well oos are managed,and the benefits of oos can surely outweigh their harmful effects. However,it is understandablethatmany people believe enclosing animals for any reason is simply wrong.27. According to Paragraph 2,some sea animals may die earlier than their wild relatives because. A. they were born in the ocean par B. they don't have enough living spaceC. they are forced to behave unnaturallyD. they suffer from family separation28. What is the main purpose of international breeding program?A. To increase genetic diversity.B. To protect mistreated animals.C. To free enclosed animals.D. To do research on animal behavior.29. What,s the author,s opinion of oos?A. He doubts the value of oos.B. He is a true supporter of all inds of oos.C. He is against the idea of having oos aroundD. He sees the importance of the oo management.DThe Rise of Artificial Intelligence (AI;人工智能)discusses AI technology and how it mightaffect humans in the future,but the future is already here. In 2011,America's Favorite Qui Showheld a competition between two men and an IBM computer named “Watson”. IBM describes Watsonas “a technology that understands all forms of data and also reasons and learns.”Both men thought they could beat Watson. Instead,the computer and its Artificial Intelligence soundly bested both ofthe human beings.ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE MADE SIMPLEArtificial Intelligence generally refers to machines with human lie intelligence,such as problem solving and learning. In order to be considered AI,the computer must pass the Turingtest,named after Alan Turing,a British mathematician who wored with the first computers.In the 1950s,Turing published a paper questioning whether a computer could be used to trichumans into believing they were interacting(互动)with an actual human being. He found that if30% of humans who interacted with a “machine”believed they were actually interacting with ahuman being,then the computer could be considered as AI.A simple eample of AI is Apple,s Siri. As Siri to do anything,from calling a friend to booing a dinner table,and Siri can do it. Siri seems almost human. When you as,“Are you a real person?”Siri answers,“That is a really personal question.”But,just because a system can behave lie humans does not mean it can thin lie humans.Or,does it?JOINING OF HUMAN & MACHINEIt seems that our devices(设备)will turn into humans. Our phones already tell us to tae anumbrella before we wal out the door. They volunteer traffic conditions so we now how long it will tae to drive to wor.Our devices can interact with us in a way that loos lie a real conversation with another human being,lie with Siri. It does not seem cray at all to thin that AI may be programmed to actuallythin. If it has not already happened,it liely will happen in the near future.Have we come to the time when computers and AI have caught up to human beings?Althoughcomputers have the ability to mae our life better,is it possible that they may control and destroy human beings in the end?WHAT THE FUTURE HOLDSIt seems pretty clear that in the future,we're going to see a human machine hybrid. Humans will be stronger,live longer and be smarter. Ray urweil,a computer scientist,believes that within 50 years,the humans on Earth will be about 50 to 80% robotic. There is no question that AI willbea part of every technology that humans create. Will it turn out to be more of a benefit to humanind or will it be a ris and threaten(威胁到)humanity as we now it?If AI is programmed according toIsaac Asimov's 3 Laws of Robotics,humans won,t have a problem with machines;but for some,evilAI still stands in the way of a peaceful and safe life on earth.30. The story of computer Watson is mentioned here to tell us that .A. the age of machines has comeB. humans mae their own enemiesC. AI has actually come into our lifeD. humans are playing a dangerous game31. From the passage we can learn that .A. Turing test was designed to eamine the first computersB. machines interacting with humans can be called AIC. Siri can volunteer to boo a dinner tableD. AI will help humans to be stronger and smarter32. What does the underlined epression “a human machine hybrid”probably mean?A. a machine with a human looB. a human created by machinesC. a body part robotic part humanD. a robot that can behave lie humans33. The passage is mainly about .A. the history and future of AIB. the advantages and disadvantages of AIC. the eamples of AID. the competition between humans and AI四?阅读短文,根据短文内容回答问题?(共10 分,每小题2 分)Albino PowerI was born an albino(白化病患者)in Scranton,Pennsylvania,in 1945.
