I noticed something interesting: almost every buyer would lift the melon up to their ear, and tap it, apparently trying to listen to something.I wondered what they expected to hear. Finally I could no longer hold back my curiosity and asked a customer—an elderly gentleman—about this. Hearing my question, he roared with laughter. Then he replied in a self-mocking(自嘲) tone, “ Young lady, I have been doing this for more than fifty years. But all I know is that everybody would stare at you as if you were a fool if you just pick up a melon and leave! ”Not long after that, my watermelon stall friend sent me an invitation to her wedding, which really surprised me. I asked her, “ Why are you seized by a sudden desire to get married? I don’t remember ever hearing you mention that you’ve got a boyfriend. ” She answered while counting money, “ Everyone has to get married anyway, so it is better to get married sooner than later. ”I could think of no word to refute(反驳) her. It seems that everybody is living for everybody else and has forgotten theneed of their own heart. It may be safe and save a lot of worries by following others’ suit in doing things. The use of WE or US will give one a steady and sure sense of pride. But why do people usually feel uneasy when using “ I” ? ?I find all these things somewhat funny. We have got used to following others’ example. We feel at ease and justified simply because this is a way of US, a way which has been practiced by so many people. But is this massive practice really right?25. Why did the elderly gentleman tap the watermelon before buying it?A. Because he expected to hear something?B. Because he was a fool?C. Because he just wanted to follow the crowd?D. Because it was his habit and it was hard for him to give it up ?26. Which word can replace the underlined word“ justified”in the last paragraph?A. reasonableB. embarrassedC. excitedD. disappointed27. Which of the following is NOT mentioned in the passage?A. It may be safe to do what most people do?B. People should live for others and forget their own heart?C. The writer felt unexpected when her friend wanted to get married?D. The use of We or I will give speakers themselves quite different senses?28. In which section of a magazine can you read the passage?A. Nature and ArtB. Sport and HealthC. Science and TechnologyD. Culture and SocietyCThe modern open office was originally designed for team building but now it is mostly distinguished by its high noise levelsand lack of privacy.?The noise of the open office is one of employees’chief complaints, and research shows that the constant noise can actually destroy our motivation. In a study published in the Journal of Applied Psychology, 40 female workers suffered from open - plan office noise for three hours. Another group experienced three hours of blessed quiet. Afterwards, both groups were given puzzles which had nosolution. The participants who’ d been treated to a quiet work setting kept working hard at the puzzles, while the participants who’d stood the noisy conditions gave up after fewer attempts.?Look around any open - plan office today and you will see that many workers deal with this problem by wearing earplugs or headphones. Although it might seem that importing one’ s own noise wouldn’t be much of a solution, experts say that this approach could be effective in at least one aspect.Another frequent complaint is the lack of privacy in an open office. Designers and managers believed that workers would be more likely to have casual conversations that can inspire new ideas. However, research shows conversations among employees in open offices tend to be short and skin - deep.?The original promoters also hoped that the setting would make co - workers available to help one other. That’ s great for the help seeker; not so great for the help giver who has her own work to do.?29. What was the original purpose of open - plan offices?A. To spare more room.B. To promote cooperation?C. To reduce work stress.D. To save office expenses?30. What’ s experts’ opinion about wearing earplugs?A. It will make more noise.B. It destroy workers’ motivation?C. It is helpful in a way.D. It will fix the problem completely?31. What can we learn about open offices?A. Conversations seldom lead to creativity?B. They create more sincere communicating opportunities?C. Help seekers are disturbed too much?D. Help givers enjoy more respect?DUp to 60 Shanghai maths teachers are to be brought to England to raise the UK maths teachers’standards, in an exchange arranged by the Department for Education. The announcement comes as a campaign that is launched to raise adult maths skills. A survey of 2, 300 adults for the numeracy campaign found that over a third thought their level of maths had held them back. An accompanying economic analysis said that a lack of maths skills cost the UK 20 billion pounds per year.?The plan to bring 60 English - speaking maths teachers from Shanghai is an attempt to learn from a city that has been the top performance in the OECD’s Pisa tests. The OECD says that children of poor families in Shanghai are on average better at maths than middle class children in the UK. The Shanghai teachers, expected to arrive from the autumn, will help share their teaching methods, support pupils who are struggling and help to train other teachers.?“ We have some smart maths teachers in this country but what I saw in Shanghai - and other Chinese cities - has only strengthened my belief that we can learn from them, ”said education minister, Elizabeth Truss, who has recently visited Shanghai, accompanied by head teachers from England. “ They have a can - do attitude to maths - and I want us to match that, and their performance. ” She stressed the economic significanceof raising maths standards, for individuals and the country. “ As part of our long term economic plan, we are determined to drive up standards in our schools and give our young people the skills they need to succeed in the global race. Good maths qualifications have the greatest earning potential and provide the strongest protection against unemployment, ”said Elizabeth Truss.?32. Poor maths skills have caused serious consequences in England.?A. academicB. economicC. cultureD. political33. What is the main reason for Shanghai teachers’ success in maths teaching?A. Their students are from poor families?B. Their students have a talent for maths?C. They have a positive attitude to teaching?D. They teach in a highly developed city?34. According to Elizabeth Truss, raising standards can be helpful in ?A. equipping young people with global competitivenessB. promoting the students’ international test performanceC. teaching how to earn money in the global marketD. discovering one’ s maths talents at an early age35. What can be the best title for the passage?A. Good Maths Skills Are about Hard WorkB. Why Are English Maths Standards Left Behind?C. Why Are Shanghai Maths Teachers Getting Popular?D. Chinese Teachers Bring the Art of Maths to English Schools 第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。It’ s impossible to achieve complete balance in life. 36Here are five ways you can follow to find happiness.?1. Give to others?Many people are completely absorbed in their own problems. But helping others is really satisfying?In the 21st century, people are always busy with their own business. They never know the true feeling of helping others. If you can give a little time, you may feel happiness you never thought possible.?2. Take up an activity?Everyday life can be extremely stressful, between kids, work and home life. People always complain that their time is limited. Taking part in something as an individual seems hard. 37 It can be a sport, night class or even just going for a run. A hobby can help you feel happy.?3. 38Not only does your body need to relax, but your mind also needs to relax and this won’ t happen with the family around.?4. Don’ t focus on the negatives?A negative attitude is often the reflection of someone who is overall not happy with his or her life.?Adopting a negative approach is not good for anyone. 39 If we can look at things from a different perspective, we may find that life is not that bad. There are still some happy things around us.?5. Be grateful for what you have40 A man without a penny to his name can be just as happy as a man who has plenty of money.?Instead of thinking about what you don’ t have , look at what you do have and in turn you will not only be a happy person, but you will be filled withconfidence.?True happiness is hard to achieve. But if you put these ideas into practice, you will see what the outcome will be.?A. However, you should always make time to take up at least one hobby?B.

When the studio didn’t want me for the film — it wanted somebody as well known as Paul —he stood up for me. I don’t know how many people would have done that; they would have listened to their agents or the studio powers.The friendship that grew out of the experience of making that film and The Sting four years later had its root in the fact that although there was an age difference, we both came from a tradition of theater and live TV. We were respectful of craft(技艺)and focused on digging into the characters we were going to play. Both of us had the qualities and virtues that are typical of American actors: humorous, aggressive, and making fun of each other — but always with an underlying affection. Those were also at the core(核心)of our relationship off the screen.We shared the brief that if you’re fortunate enough to have success, you should put something back —he with his Newman’s Own food and his Hole in the Wall camps for kids who are seriously ill, and me with Sundance and the institute and the festival. Paul and I didn’t see each other all that regularly, butsharing that brought us together. We supported each other financially and by showing up at events.I last saw him a few months ago. He’d been in and out o f the hospital. He and I both knew what the deal was, and we didn’t talk about it.Ours was a relationship that didn’t need a lot of words.24. Why was the studio unwilling to give the role to author at first?A. Paul Newman wanted it.B. The studio powers didn’t like his agent.C. He wasn’t famous enough.D. The director recommended someone else.25. Why did Paul and the author have a lasting friendship?A. They were of the same age.B. They worked in the same theater.C. They were both good actors.D. They had similar charactertics.26. What does the underlined word “that” in paragraph 3 refer to?A. Their belief.B. Their care for children.C. Their success.D. Their support for each other.27. What is the autho r’s purpose in writing the test?A. To show his love of films.B. To remember a friend.C. To introduce a new movie.D. To share his acting experience.CTerrafugia Inc. said Monday that its new flying car has completed its first flight, bringing the company closer to its goal of selling the flying car within the next year. The vehicle —named the Transition – has two seats, four wheels and wings that fold up so it can be driven like a car. The Transition, which flew at 1,400 feet for eight minutes last month, can reach around 70 miles per hour on the road and 115 in the air. It flies using a 23-gallon tank of gas and bums 5 gallons per hour in the air. On the ground, it gets 35 miles per gallon.Around 100 people have already put down a $10,000 deposit to get a Transition when they go on sale, and those numbers will likely rise after Terrafugia introduces the Transition to the public later this week at the New York Auto Show. But don’t expect it to show up in too many driveways. It’s expected to cost $279,000. And it won’t help if you’re stuck in traffic. The car needs a runway.Inventors have been trying to make flying cars since the 1930s, according to Robert Mann, an airline industry expert. But Mann thinks Terrafugia has come closer than anyone to making the flying car a reality. The govemment has already permitted the company to use special materials to make it easier for the vehicle to fly. The Transition is now going through crash tests to make sure it meets federal safety standards.Mann sai d Terrafugia was helped by the Federal Aviation Administration’sdecision five years ago to create a separate set of standards for light sport aircraft, which are lower than those pilots of larger planes. Terrafugia says an owner would need to pass a test and complete 20 hours of flying time to be able to fly the Transition, a requirement pilots would find redatively easy to meet.28. What is the first paragraph mainly about?A. The basic data of the Transition.B. The advantages of flying cars.C. The potential market for flying cars.D. The designers of the Transition.29. Why is the Transition unlikely to show up in too many driveways?A. It causes traffic jams.B. It is difficult to operate.C. It is very expensive.D. It bums too much fuel.30. What is the government’s attitude to the development of the flying car?A. Cautious.B. Favorable.C. Ambiguous.D. Disapproving.31. What is the best title for the text?A. Flying Car at Auto Show.B. The Transit ion’s Fist Flight.C. Pilots’ Dream Coming True.D. Flying Car Closer to Reality.DWhen a leafy plant is under attack, it doesn’t sit quietly. Back in 1983, two scientists, Jack Schultz and Ian Baldwin, reported that young maple trees getting bitten by insects send out a particular smell that neighboring plants can get. These chemicals come from the injured parts of the plant and seem to be an alarm. What the plants pump through the air is a mixture of chemicals known as volatile organic compounds, VOCs for short.Scientists have found that all kinds of plants give out VOCs when being attacked. It’s a plant’s way of crying out. But is anyone listening? Apparently. Because we can watch the neighbours react.Some plants pump out smelly chemicals to keep insects away. But others do double duty. They pumpout perfumes designed to attract different insects who are natural enemies to the attackers. Once they arrive, the tables are turned. The attacker who was lunching now becomes lunch.In study after study, it appears that these chemical conversations help the neighbors. The damage is usually more serious on the first plant, but the neighbors, relatively speaking, stay safer because they heard the alarm and knew what to do.Does this mean that plants talk to each other? Scientists don’t know. Maybe the first plant just made a cry of pain or was sending a message to its own branches, and so, in effect, was talking to itself. Perhaps the neighbors just happened to “overhear” the cry. So information was exchanged, but it wasn’t a true, intentional back and forth.Charles Darwin, over 150 years ago, imagined a world far busier, noisier and more intimate (亲密的) than the world we can see and hear. Our senses are weak. There’s a whole lot going on.32. What does a plant do when it is under attack?A. It makes noises.B. It gets help from other plants.C. It stands quietlyD. It sends out certain chemicals.33. What does the author mean by “the tables are turned” in paragraph 3?A. The attackers get attacked.B. The insects gather under the table.C. The plants get ready to fight back.D. The perfumes attract natural enemies.34. Scientists find from their studies that plants can .A. predict natural disastersB. protect themselves against insectsC. talk to one another intentionallyD. help their neighbors when necessary35. What can we infer from the last paragraph?A. The world is changing faster than ever.B. People have stronger senses than beforeC. The world is more complex than it seemsD. People in Darwin’s time were more imaginative.第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

Trying to help injured, displaced or sick creatures can be heartbreaking; survival is never certain. However, when it works, it is simply beautiful.I got a rescue call from a woman in Muttontown. She had found a young owl ( 猫头鹰) on the ground. When I arrived, I saw a 2-to 3-week-old owl. It had already been placed in a carrier for safety.I examined the chick (雏鸟) and it seemed fine. If I could locate the nest, I mighthave been able to put it back, but no luck. My next work was to construct a nest and anchor it in a tree.The homeowner was very helpful. A wire basket was found. I put some pine branches into the basket to make this nest safe and comfortable. I placed the chick in the nest, and it quickly calmed down.Now all that was needed were the parents, but they were absent. I gave the homeowner a recording of the hunger screams of owl chicks. These advertise the presence of chicks to adults; they might also encourage our chick to start calling aswell. I gave the owner as much information as possible and headed home to see whatnews the night might bring.A nervous night to be sure, but sometimes the spirits of nature smile on us all! The homeowner called to say that the parents had responded to the recordings. I drove over and saw the chick in the nest looking healthy and active. And it was accompanied in the nest by the greatest sight of all — LUNCH! The parents had done their duty and would probably continue to do so.24. What is unavoidable in the author’s rescue work according to paragraph 1?A. Efforts made in vain.B. Getting injured in his work.C. Feeling uncertain about his future.D. Creatures forced out of their homes.25. Why was the author called to Muttontown?A. To rescue a woman.B. To take care of a woman.C. To look at a baby owl.D. To cure a young owl.26. What made the chick calm down?A. A new nest.B. Some food.C. A recording.D. Its parents.27. How would the author feel about the outcome of the event?A. It’s unexpected.B. It’s beautiful.C. It’s humorous.D. It’s discouraging.CSome of the world’s most famous musicians recently gathered in Paris and New Orleans to celebrate the first annual International Jazz Day. UNESCO( United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization) recently set April 30 as a day to raise awareness of jazz music, its significance, and its potential as a unifying (联合) voice across cultures.Despite the celebrations, though, in the U.S. the jazz audience continues to shrink and grow older, and the music has failed to connect with younger generations.It’s Jason Moran’s job to help change that. As the Kennedy Center’s artistic adviser for jazz, Moran hopes to widen the audience for jazz, make the music more accessible, and preserve its history and culture. “Jazz seems like it’s not really a part of the American appetite,” Moran tellsNational Public Radio’s reporter Neal Conan. “What I’m hoping to accomplish is thatmy generation and younger start to reconsider and understand that jazz is not black and write anymore. It’s actually color, and it’s actually digital.”Moran says one of the problems with jazz today is that the entertainment aspect of the music has been lost. “The music can’t be presented today the way it was in 1908 or 1958. It has to continue to move, because the way the world works is not the same,” says Moran.Last year, Moran worked on a project that arranged Fats Waller’s music for a dance party, “Just to kind of put it back in the mind that Waller is dance music asmuch as it is concert musi c,” says Moran. “For me, it’s the recontextualization. In music, where does the emotion (情感) lie? Are we, as humans, gaining any insight (感悟 ) on how to talk about ourselves and how something as abstract as a Charlie Parker record gets us into a dialogue about our emotions and our thoughts? Sometimes welose sight that the music has a wider context,” says Moran, “so I want to continue those dialogues. Those are the things I want to foster.”28. Why did UNESCO set April 30 as International Jazz Day?A. To remember the birth of jazz.B. To protect cultural diversity.C. To encourage people to study music.D. To recognize the value of jazz.29. What does the underlined word “that” in paragraph 3 refer to?A. Jazz becoming more accessible.B. The production of jazz growing faster.C. Jazz being less popular with the young.D. The jazz audience becoming larger.30. What can we infer about Moran’s opinion on jazz?A. It will disappear gradually.B. It remains black and white.C. It should keep up with the times.D. It changes every 50 years.31. Which of the following can be the best title for the text?A. Exploring the Future of Jazz.B. The Rise and Fall of Jazz.C. The Story of a Jazz Musician.D. Celebrating the Jazz Day.DA buld-it-yourself solar still(蒸馏器)is one of the best ways to obtain drinking water in areas where the liquid is not readily available. Developed by two doctors in the U.S. Department of Agriculture, it’s an excellent water collector. Unfortunately, yo u must carry the necessary equipment with you, since it’s all but impossible to find natural substitutes. The only components required, though, are a 5'×5' sheet of clear or slightly milky plastic, six feet of plastic tube, and a container — perhaps just a drinking cup — to catch the water. These pieces can be folded into a neat little pack and fastened on your belt.To construct a working still, use a sharp stick or rock to dig a hole four feet across and three feet deep. Try to make the hole in a damp area to increase the water catcher’s productivity. Place your cup in the deepest part of the hole. Then lay the tube in place so that one end rests all the way in the cup and the rest of the line runs up — and out — the side of the hole.Next, cover the hole with the plastic sheet, securing the edges of the plastic with dirt and weighting the sheet’s center down with a rock. The plastic should now form acone ( 圆锥体 ) with 45-degree-angled sides. The low point of the sheet must becentered directly over, and no more than three inches above, the cup.The solar still works by creating a greenhouse under the plastic. Ground water evaporates (蒸发) and collects on the sheet until small drops of water form, run down the material and fall off into the cup. When the container is full, you can suck the refreshment out through the tube, and won’t have to break down the still every time you need a drink.32. What do we know about the solar still equipment from the first paragraph?A. It’s delic ate.B. It’s expensive.C. It’s complex.D. It’s portable.33. What does the underlined phrase “the water catcher” in paragraph 2 refer to?A. The tube.B. The still.C. The hole.D. The cup.34. What’s the last step of constructing a working solar still?A. Dig a hole of a certain size.B. Put the cup in place.C. Weight the sheet’s center down.D. Cover the hole with the plastic sheet.35. When a solar still works, drops of water come into the cup form .A. the plastic tubeB. outside the holeC. the open airD. beneath the sheet第二节 (共 5 小题;每小题 2 分,满分 10 分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

It also has an outstanding collection of American and modern art and proudly houses extensive holdings of African, Asian, Oceanic, Indian and Islamic art. Visitors can also find large collections of musical instruments and costumes, as well as antique weapons from around the globe.The Metropolitan Museum of Art was found in 1870.

After this, the centre will pass on the news to the 36 other nations of the Commonwealth (英联邦)for whom the Queen has served as a symbolic figurehead for many decades.It will not be long before the news spreads from world leaders to the general public, with the news of her passing to the Press Association and thus the global media as well.This marks a break from the long-held tradition of the BBC being the first news outlet to learn of royal deaths.What's more, while George VI's death was not announced until four hours after he died, news of the Queen's death will be far more instant.A footman in mourning clothes will be sent out of the door at Buckingham Palace at the same time to pin a notice of the news to the gates, while the official palace website will feature- just one page, letting out the news ona dark background.24.What are the code words for the Queen's death?A.

The Queen has passed away.CI was five years old when my little brother, Murk, was born. Looking back at photos, I appeared so thrilled that he had finally arrived. I held and bathed him, smiling from cheek to check. I do not remember that feeling now. Being the first child in the family, I was the one my parents tested their new parenting techniques on. I was their guinea pig. Mark was always the happy one, the joker, the one who won because of my battles with my parents. After too many fights, I declared war on Mark. We were now enemies. All l remember is being jealous of (妒忌) and angry with my innocent little brother.Thus. I made his life a misery. I teased, tricked, embarrassed, and fought with him. often leaving him in floods of tears.Our little sister was born when I was 11. and instantly she and Mark could not be separated. They pushed me aside. Was this because 1 was becoming a monster, or did 1 grow into an uglier green-eyed monster because they loved each other so much?Thankfully, Mark quickly grew tall and strong, and our conflict looked more like a cold war than bloodshed (流血).It all ended suddenly when I went to study abroad.
