As they drove by the redbrick building, they saw a group of 25 homeless men standing on the street corner. “Dad, they look sad,” Austin said. “Can we take them some food and make them smile?”That day, Austin used his allowance to buy each man a Burger King sandwich and handed the food out himself.Seeing what their presence meant to the men at the ministry, Austin and TJ returned the next week. After he returned every week for five weeks, word of Austin’s acts of kindness spread through social media and national news outlets. Burger King jumped aboard, agreeing to donate $1,000 a month for an entire year toward the cause. Soon, churches and shelters across the country began inviting Austin to come and distribute food in other poor areas. Whereas before Austin and TJ could feed 25 to 50 people at a time, now, thanks to corporate and community support, they can feed 800 to 2,000 people at once.But Austin isn’t just filling bellies. He’s improving the lives of those he meets. On that first trip to Firehouse Ministries, TJ and Austin talked to a man named Raymont.The respect Austin gave 41-year-old Raymont touched the man.

New research conducted by the University of Bristol has shown that as many as 41 million Americans are highly at risk from river floods – more than three times the number previously estimated – with real estate (住宅区) in areas such as Louisiana, Florida, Arizona and West Virginia found to be especially at threat.For the first time, it has been possible to produce super quality flood risk maps that cover the whole United States, while previous Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) flood maps cover no more than 60 per cent of the country. The fine details provided by these new maps also makes it possible to predict the powerful effects of flooding on many smaller streams than before, thus raising concerns about the increasing number of people potentially threatened.“We were all surprised by how many Americans we find are exposed to flooding from rivers,”says Oliver Win g, from the University of Bristol’s School of Geographical Sciences. “It’s particularly worrisome considering that most of these people aren’t even aware of the risk they face.”Additionally, there is the possibility that this lack of awareness means construction in high-risk river flooding areas will continue to rise, despite the threats. Estimates (估量) suggest that projected population growth, continued urbanization trends (城市化趋势), and the unpredictable threats caused by climate change will leave over 60 million Americans vulnerable (易受攻击的) to a 100-year flood by the middle of the century. ‘All of this highlights the urgent need for large areas of floodplain and flood risk management planning,’ adds Wing.28. Which paragraph best supports“the risk of river flooding”?A. Paragraph 1.B. Paragraph 2.C. Paragraph 3.D. Paragraph 4.29. Which is true about the new maps?A. They cover over 60 per cent of the United States.B. They contain details of the flooding effects.C. They make the river flooding under control.D. They make the threats of rivers clear for the public.30. What can we know from the last two paragraphs?A. People need management planning against the risk.B. Most people are aware of the risk of the river flooding.C. Climate change is the main cause of river flooding.D. The threats keep people from construction near river flooding areas.31. What is the passage mainly about?A. A research on the risk of river flooding.B. The rising threats of coastal flooding.C. Unpredictable threats caused by climate change.D. Reasons for people’s unawareness of the risk.DMore than 20 years ago, a skeleton called Little Foot turned up in a South African cave. The nearly complete skeleton was a member of the human family. Now researchers have freed most of the skeleton from its stony shell and analyzed the fossils (化石) and they say 3.67-million-years-old Little Foot belonged to a unique species.Researcher Ronald Clarke and his colleagues think Little Foot belonged to A. Prometheus (普罗米修斯南猿). Clarke works at the university of the Witwatersrand in Johannesburg South Africa. He studies fossilized humans and our relatives. Their foundings, published in four papers, have suggested the species A.Prometheus might have existed. Clarke has believed in that species for more than a decade, he found the first Little Foot’s remains in a storage box of fossils in 1994. People began digging out the rest of the skeleton in 1997.Many other researchers instead argue that Little Foot likely belonged to a different species, which is known as A.africanus (南方古猿非洲种). Researcher Raymond Dart first identified A.africanus in 1924. He was studying the skull (头颅骨) of an ancient youngster called the Taung Child. Since then, people have turned up hundreds more A. africanus fossils in South African caves. Those include Sterkfontein, where Little Foot was found.The braincase is the part of the skull that holds the brain. And researchers found a partial braincase that Dart thought belonged to a different species in Makapansgat, one of those other caves. In 1948, Dart called this other species A. Prometheus, but he changed his mind after 1955. Instead, he said that braincase and another fossil at Makapansgat belonged to A.africanus. There was no A. Prometheus after all, he concluded.Clarke and his colleagues want to bri ng back the rejected species. They say Little Foot’s distinctive skeleton, an adult female that is at least 90 percent complete, is solid evidence for it.32. Which of the following beliefs did Ronald Clarke hold?A. A. Prometheus wasn’t a human species.B. Little Foot didn’t belonged to the human family.C. Little Foot was one member of A. Prometheus.D. A. Prometheus lived over four million years ago.33. What can we learn about A. Prometheus?A. There wasn’t much evidence of it.B. Its fossil were first discovered in 1948.C. It’s a species that’s believed to have existed.D. The Taung Child wasn’t its first known member.34. What’s Dart’s most probable attitude toward the existence of A. Prometheus now?A. UncertainB. SupportiveC. UninterestedD. Disapproving35. What is the best title for the text?A. The Skeleton Little Foot Causing a Big Debate.B. Two New Human Species Accidentally Discovered.C. More Human Fossils Being Dug Up In Sterkfontein.D. Little Foot From Makapansgat Drawing New Attention.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。

第一部分：阅读理解（共两节，满分40分）第一节（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分）AThe Origins of Famous BrandsOur lives are full of brand names and trademarked products that we use every day. Although many brand names are simple acronyms (首字母缩略词) or versions of their founders names, some of the companies we trust every day actually have fascinating and surprising back stories.StarbucksIt seems fitting that the most famous coffee brand in the world would take its name from one of the wor ld’s greatest works of literature. The inspiration for the name of the coffeehouse came from Herman Melville’s Moby Dick. The founders’ original idea was to name the company after the Captain Ahab’s ship, but they eventually decided that Pequot wasn’t a gr eat name for coffee, so they chose Ahab’s first mate, Starbucks, as the name instead.GoogleGoogle was originally called Backrub, for it searched for links in every corner of the Web. In 1997, when the founders of the company were searching for a new name showing a huge amount of data for their rapidly improving search technology, a friend suggested the word “googol”. When a friend tried to register the new domain (域) name, he misspelled “googol” as “google”.NikeOriginally founded as a distributor for Japanese running shoes, the company was originally named BRS, or Blue Ribbon Sports. In 1971, BRS introduced its own soccer shoe, a model called Nike, which is also the name for the Greek goddess of victory. In 1978, the company officially renamed itself as Nike, Inc.The right name is essential to a company’s success, and a great origin storyis just as important as a great product. An attractive origin story is one more thing that keeps customers guessing, wondering, and buying its products.1. What is t he name of the Captain Ahab’s ship?A. Moby DickB. StarbucksC. PequotD. Herman Melville2. Why did the founders of the Google want to change its name?A. They mistook their name.B. They wanted new customers.C. The company’s original name was too long.D. The company’s search technology was improving rapidly.3. Where does the importance of the origin story of one company lie in?A. It can change the company’s image.B. It can add myth to the company.C. It explains the development of the company to customers.D. It makes customers imagine and purchase its goods.BI can still remember it as if it happened yesterday. I was a college freshman and had stayed up most of the night before laughing and talking with friends. Now just before my first class of the day my eyelids (眼皮) were feeling heavier and heavier and my head was drifting down to my desk to make my textbook a pillow. A few minutes’ nap time before class couldn’t hurt, I thought.Boom! I lifted my head immediately and my eyes opened wider than saucers.I looked around with my heart beating quickly trying to find the cause of the noise. My young professor was looking back at me with a mischievous, boyish smile on his face. He had intentionally dropped the pile of textbooks he was carrying onto the desk. “Good morning!” he said, still smiling. “I’m glad to see everyone is awake. Now let’s get started.”For the next hour I wasn't sleepy at all. It wasn’t from the shock of my professor’s textbook alarm clock either. Inst ead, it was from the attractive discussion he led. With knowledge and good humor, he made the material come alive. His lecturing was full of both wisdom and kindness. And the enthusiasm and joy that he taught with were contagious (有感染力的). I left the classroom notonly wide awake, but a little smarter and a little better as well.I learned something far more important than not sleeping in class that day too. What I’ve learned is that if you are going to do something in this life, do it well, do it with joy, and make it an expression of your love. What a glorious place this world would be if all of us did our job joyously and well! What a beautiful world we could create if every doctor, teacher, musician, cook, waitress, poet, miner, farmer, and laborer made t heir work an expression of their love! Don’t sleepwalk your way through life then. Wake up! Let your love fill your work and your soul. Life is too short to live it badly.4. What did the author want to do just before his first class of the day?A. Talk with his friends.B. Take a short sleep.C. Get his eyes examined.D. Stay away from the class.5. The underlined word “mischievous” in Paragraph 2 probably means “”.A naughty B. serious C. sensitive D. dishonest6. What else did the author learn that day?A. Students should not sleep in class but respect their teachers。

AThe Imagine Mars Project builds on the success of the Mars Millennium Project, which inspired the participation of hundreds of thousands of youth from nearly every state in the nation. Following are some typical project examples from elementary, middle and high schools as well as clubs.AlaskaAt Gruening Middle School in Eagle River, the student government designed the Alaskan Igloo Project. Originally intended as a science project, the students made some experiments and later realized they had learned as much or more about teamwork and community.DelawareThe Pilot School in Wilmington made the Mars Millennium Project an extracurricular activity. Students gave up their lunch hour in order to work on their model of a colony on Mars. After studying the surface of Mars the students selected the location for the colony and decided what kind of citizens would be necessary for a community on Mars.New JerseyThe students at Lodi High School in Bergen County took advantage of the resources of their community in the creation of their project. They visited William Paterson University to listen to astronaut Dr. Bonnie Dunbar and invited architects, artists, and government officials to be guest lecturers.They then created a model, computer designs, and reports on their projects. These projects were displayed in the school and the public library.WisconsinThe Madison Public Library provided area students with a seven-month program using the Mars Millennium Project. The library sponsored a field trip to a water treatment plant and conducted experiments to help the students with their designs. The library then displayed the colony models produced by the students.1.What was the unexpected benefit for the Alaskan Igloo Project?A.The students acquired some scientific knowledge.B.The students learned to cooperate with each other.C.The students’ reports were pub lished on a website.D.The students took a field trip to a water treatment plant.2.How did the students of Lodi High School use the local resources?A.They studied what counted in a relevant community.B.They selected potential location for a colony on Mars.C.They made designs with computers on their projects.D.They invited some experts to give lectures.3.What was special for the project in Wisconsin?A.The models of the project were displayed.B.The students spent their spare time on the project.C.A library provided strong support for the project.D.The designs were tested by experiments.BAfter several summers visiting Santa Fe, I have Georgia O’Keeffe on my mind. I’ve always connected the artist with her flower paintings. A few years ago, my mom and I visited her home in Abiquiu and were amazed by our approaching something so beautiful and even holy (in the non-religious sense).There’s nothing friendlier than visiting someone at their home. AlthoughGeorgia O’Keeffe hasn’t been home for more than 30 years (she died in 1986), the spirit of her daily routine still exists at her magically untouched Abiquiu home, 60 miles from Santa Fe. The house is maintained largely as she left it, and it's impossible not to see how her habitat was a direct inspiration for many of her later paintings, such as In the Patio III (1948) and My Last Door(1952/54). It's a rare glimpse into her private world.O’Keeffe’s New Mexican Pueblo-style home has the flourishes ( 华饰) of the artist’s cool, 1950’s aesthetic ( 审美): Florence Knoll’s Womb Chair, a McIntosh stereo, Alexander Girard pillows, even Ansel Adam’s ashtray (he was a friend). O’Keeffe loved to cook, and there’s a pile of pots and pans by Le Creuset, dried herbs, and teas in her cupboards. Outside, there’s a vegetable garden. There’s also the fantastic collection of taxidermy (动物标本), driftwood (浮木), and large rocks —the things that influenced her paintings and the famous 1956 photo by Yousuf Karsh.In a separate building, just past the Japanese-influenced garden, her studio is a light-filled, white-on-white room with wide windows overlooking the earthy red cliffs.Because no cameras or phones are allowed for photographs, a walk through the place is letting our mind wandering in the old times, an exercise in taking in the little details, the larger landscape, and the sensation of light. It’s what O’Keeffe would insist we do as her guests.4.What should O’Keeffe’s later paintings mainly owe to?A.Her visits to the city of Santa Fe.B.Her home of good taste in Abiquiu.C.An artist skilled at painting flowers.D.The landscape she observed in Mexico.5.What kind of person was O’Keeffe?A.She lived a rich and fascinating life.B.She was not into cooking.C.She liked collecting photos.D.She was fond of ordinary furniture.6.What’s O’Keeffe’s studio like?A.It’s next door to her bedroom.B.It has pink walls.C.It has a view of red cliffs.D.There are artificial rocks in it.7.Which is the best title of the text?A.Georgia O’Keeffe: An Artist of Santa Feter Life of Georgia O’KeeffeC.Georgia O’Keeffe and Her WorksD.Being a Guest at Georgia O’Keeffe’s HouseCEach year around Tomb Sweeping Day, or Qingming Festival, villagers busy themselves picking leaves at tea gardens in southern China.You may have already known this tea tradition, because tea is fundamentally China’s favorite drink. You may be surprised, however, that the UK also has tea traditions.The UK has been in love with tea since the 17th century, when merchants first brought it to the country. Its popularity has never waned ( 减少). According to the Tea and Infusions Organization, the average British person drinks more than 900 cups a year.In demographic ( 人口特性的 ) terms, Britain is quite varied. There are significant differences between people according to region, ethnicity ( 种族 ) and age. But a very basic difference — social difference — is reflected in the ways that people drink tea.When people think of the UK and tea, they generally have an image of the upper class in their heads. They imagine finely dressed ladies and gentlemen, sitting down with tiny sandwiches,drinking from delicate porcelain (瓷器) cups, with their pinkie fingers raised.This is known as “afternoon tea”. It definitely happens, but it only involves a small minority of the nation’s people. Most tea is drunk by the working population. These people enjoy tea at their jobs, not while they are at their leisure.Nor do they drink the same kind of tea as the ladies and gentlemen in the posh ( 豪华的)hotels. Manual workers drink what is known as “builder’s tea”. The tea bag is left to “stew (焖)” in the mug (not cup) for a long time. It will usually be heavily sweetened, perhaps because sugar is a source of energy —and people at work always need energy.There are many British tea traditions. “Afternoon tea” and “builder’s tea” are only two ways that British people enjoy tea. No matter what kind of tea people drink, nor where people drink it,all tea-drinking in the UK has a kind of ritual (仪式的) significance.Almost all British people would agree that tea is the first part of solvinga problem. Whentrouble arises, someone will invariably say, “Let’s put the kettle on.” Nothing looks bad when you have a warm cup — or mug — of tea in your hands. As English actor Arthur Wing Pinero put it, “Where there’s tea, there’s hope.”8.What do we know about tea drinking in the UK?A.Its history dates back to the 18th century.B.An average British person drinks a cup of tea every day.C.The fixed tea time in the afternoon leads to its popularity.D.British people enjoy tea in different ways.9.When do British consume builder’s tea?A.When customers drink it in a relaxed manner.B.When passersby are casually invited to dinner.C.When workers are at their labor-demanding jobs.D.When burglars burst into a trendy hotel in case of emergency.10.Why are Arthur Wing Pinero’s words mentioned?A.To express that he has consistent love for tea.B.To show that drinking tea has special meaning to British people.C.To stress that drinking tea makes people work effectively.D.To prove that tea is the solution to problems for British.11.What is the text mainly about?A.The conflicts resulting from tea drinking.B.The impact of tea drinking on common people.C.The difference between Chinese tea and British tea.D.Tea drinking traditions and customs in the UK.DWalk down any British chief shopping street and you will find what featuresthe shops have in common. They all have strange names. Why is the barber’s called “Shearlock Combs”? Why is the optician’s called “Eyediology”? And who decided to name the butcher’s “Meat you there” and the fish and chip shop “The Plaice to Come”? What’s going on?The British love puns (双关语) — as do many other nationalities. Puns are jokes based onwords that sound the same. You’ve probably noticed that many words in English which are spelt in different ways and have different meanings are pronounced in the same way. Think about the name of the restaurant: “plaice” is a kind of fish so our restaurant is “the place” to eat fish. Butchers sell meat —so we’ll “meet you there” —and opticians look after our eyesight in a scientific way —so eyed –iology (ideology) is a name that fits. Hairdressers shear your locks (hair) and comb it —say the three words together quickly and you have the name of a famous detective. In shop titles and adverts, puns are used to get our attention.Puns are very old. The ancient Egyptians and Romans liked to pun. Shakespeare uses many puns in his plays — King Richard the Third (the son of York) brings “glorious (灿烂的) summer”— just think about a word that has the same sound as son.Many people enjoy a good pun (pun/fun for all the family)! Puns can be funny and they sometimes make important points. Here’s a fashion tip: “skinny genes make skinny jeans”: so don’t worry if your jeans don’t fit —it’s your family’s fault!12.Where can you probably receive professional vision correction?A.Shearlock Combs.B.Meat you there.C.Eyediology.D.The Plaice to Come.13.What does the underlined word “shear” in paragraph 2 mean?A.State.B.Cut.C.Seek.D.Buy.14.Why did the author write this article?A.To explain why puns appeal to people.B.To introduce some popular puns in history.C.To compare the use of puns in different countries.D.To show how puns come into being.15.How does the author convince readers?A.By describing causes and effects.B.By making comparisons.C.By following the order of time.D.By giving examples.第二节七选五（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。
