You’ve just come home, after living abroad for a few years．Since you’ve been away, h as this country changed for the better-or for the worse?If you’ve just arrived back in the UK after a fortnight’s holiday, small changes have probably surprised you-anything from a local greengrocer suddenly being replaced by a mobile-phone shop to someone in your street moving house．So how have things changed to people coming back to Britain after seven, ten or even 15y ears living abroad? What changes in society can they see that the rest of us have hardly notic ed-or now take for granted? To find out, we asked some people who recently returned．Debi: When we left, Cheltenham, my home town, was a town of white, middle-class families-all very conservative （保守的）．The town is now home to many eastern Europeans and lots of Australians, who come here mainly to work in hotels and tourism．There are even several shops only for foreigners． Having been an immigrant （移民） myself, I admire people who go overseas to find a job．Maybe if I lived in an inner city where unemployment was high, I’d think differently, but I believe foreign settlers have impro ved this country because they’re more open-minded and often work harder than the natives． Christine: As we flew home over Britain, both of us remarked how green everything looked ．But the differences between the place we’d left behind and the one we returned to were brought sharply into focus as soon as we landed．To see policemen with guns in the airport for the first time was frightening-in Cyprus, they’re very relaxed-and I got pulled over by customs officers just for taking a woolen sweater with some metal-made buttons out of my case in the arrivals hall．Everyone seemed to be on guard．Even th e airport car-hire firm wanted a credit card rather than cash because they said their vehicles had been use d by bank robbers．But anyway, this is still a green, beautiful country．I just wish more people would apprecia te what they’ve got．（1）After a short overseas holiday，people tend to________．A.notice small changesB． C.welcome small changes D．（2）How does Debi look at the foreign settlers？________A.Cautiously．B.Positively．C.Sceptically．D.Critically．（3）When arriving at the airport in Britain，Christine was shocked by________．A.the relaxed policemenB． C.the tight security.D.the bank robbers．（4）Which might be the best title for the passage？________A.Life in Britain．B.Back in Britain．C.Britain in Future．D.Britain in Memory．14. When my brother and I were young, my mom would take us on Transportation Days． It goes like this: You can’t take any means of transportation more than once．We would st art from home, walking two blocks to the rail station．We’d take the train into the city cente r, then a bus, switching to the tram, then maybe a taxi．We always considered taking a hors e carriage in the historic district, but we didn’t like the way the horses were treated, so we n ever did．At the end of the day, we took the subway to our closest station, where Mom’s fri end was waiting to give us a ride home-our first car ride of the day．The good thing about Transportation Days is not only that Mom taught us how to get arou nd．She was born to be multimodal （多方式的）．She understood that depending on cars only was a failure of imagination and, above al l, a failure of confidence-the product of a childhood not spent exploring subway tunnels． Once you learn the route map and step with certainty over the gap between the train and the platform, nothing is frightening anymore．New cities are just light-rail lines to be explored．And your personal car, if you have one, becomes just one more too l in the toolbox-and often an inadequate one, limiting both your mobility and your wallet． On Transportation Days, we might stop for lunch on Chestnut Street or buy a new book ortoy, but the transportation was the point．First, it was exciting enough to watch the world s peed by from the train window．As I got older, my mom helped me unlock the mysteries tha t would otherwise have paralyzed my first attempts to do it myself: How do I know where to get off? How do I know how much it costs? How do I know when I need tickets, and where to get them? What track, what line, which direction, where’s the stop, and will I get wet when we go under the river?I’m writing this right now on an airplane, a means we didn’t try on our Transportation Days and, we now know, the dirtiest and most polluting of them all．My flight routed me throug h Philadelphia．My multimodal mom met me for dinner in the airport．She took a train to meet me．（1）Which was forbidden by Mom on Transportation Days？________A.Having a car ride．B.Taking the train twice．C.Buying more than one toy．D.Touring the historic district．（2）According to the writer，what was the greatest benefit of her Transportation Days？________A.Building confidence in herself．B.Reducing her use of private cars．C.Developing her sense of direction．D.Giving her knowledge about vehicles．（3）The underlined word“paralyzed”（in Para.5）is closest in meaning to“________”．A.displayedB． C.ignored D．（4）Which means of transportation does the writer probably disapprove of？________ A.Airplane． B.Subway． C.Tram． D.Car．15. It was a simple letter asking for a place to study at Scotland’s oldest university which h elped start a revolution in higher education．A 140-year-old letter written by a lady calling for her to be allowed to study medicine at St Andrews Univ ersity has been discovered by researchers．Written by Sophia Jex-Blake in 1873, the seven-page document, which urged the university to allow women to study medicine at the institut ion, was released yesterday on International Women’s Day．The document was discovered buried in the university archives （档案） by part-time history student Lis Smith, who is completing her PhD at St Andrews Institute of Scottish Historical Research．She said: “We knew that Sophia Jex-Blake and her supporters, in their effort to open up university medical education for women, had written to the Senatus Academicus （校评议委员会） at St Andrews in an attempt to gain permission to attend classes there, but we didn’t k now documentary evidence existed．While searching the archives for information about the university’s higher certificate for women, I was astonished to come across what must be the very letter Jex-Blake wrote．”In the letter, Sophia and her supporters offered to hire teachers or build suitable buildings for a medical school and to arrange for lectures to be delivered in the subjects not already co vered at St Andrews．Although her letter was not successful, it eventually led to the establis hment of the Ladies Literate in Arts at St Andrews, a distance-learning degree for women．The qualification, which ran from 1877until the 1930s, gave wo men access to university education in the days before they were admitted as students．It w as so popular that it survived long after women were admitted as full students to St Andrews in 1892．Ms Jex-Blake went on to help establish the London School of Medicine for Women in 1874．She wa s accepted by the University of Berne, where she was awarded a medical degree in January 1 877．Eventually, she moved back to Edinburgh and opened her own practice．（1）Sophia wrote a letter to St Andrews University because she wanted________．A.to carry out a research project there．B.to set up a medical institute there．C.to study medicine there.D.to deliver lectures there．（2）Lis Smith found Sophia’s letter to St Andrews University________．A.by pure chance.B.in the school office．C.with her supporters’helpD．（3）Sophia’s letter resulted in the establishment of________．A.the London School of Medicine for Women．B.a degree programme for women．C.a system of medical education ．D.the University of Berne．（4）When did St Andrews University begin to take full-time women students？________ A.In 1873． B.In 1874． C.In 1877． D.In 1892．16. How is it that siblings （兄弟姐妹） can turn out so differently? One answer is that in fact each sibling grows up in a differe nt family．The firstborn is, for a while, an only child, and therefore has a completely different experience of the parents than those born later．The next child is, for a while, the younges t, until the situation is changed by a new arrival．The mother and father themselves are cha nging and growing up too．One sibling might live in a stable and close family in the first few years; another might be raised in a family crisis, with a disappointed mother or an angry fath er．Sibling competition was identified as an important shaping force as early as in 1918．But more recently, researchers have found many ways in which brothers and sisters are a lasting force in each others’lives．Dr．Annette Henderson says firstborn children pick up vocabular y more quickly than their siblings．The reason for this might be that the later children aren’t getting the same one-on-one time with parents．But that doesn’t mean that the younger children have problems wit h language development．Later-borns don’t enjoy that much talking time with parents, but instead they harvest lessons from bigger brothers and sisters, learning entire phrases and getting an understanding of social co ncepts such as the difference between“I”and“me”．A Cambridge University study of 140children found that siblings created a rich world of pla y that helped them grow socially．Love-hate relationships were common among the children．Even those siblings who fought the m ost had just as much positive communication as the other sibling pairs．One way children seek more attention from parents is by making themselves different fro m their siblings, particularly if they are close in age．Researchers have found that the first t wo children in a family are typically more different from each other than the second and thir d．Girls with brothers show their differences to a maximum degree by being more feminine than girls with sisters．A 2003research paper studied adolescents from 185families over two years, finding that those who changed to make themselves different from their siblings were successful in increasing the amount of warmth they gained from their parents．（1）The underlined part“in a different family”（in Para.1）means“________”．A.in a different family environment B．C.in different family crises.D.in different families．（2）In terms of language development，later-borns________．A.get their parents’individual guidance．B.learn a lot from their elder siblings．C.experience a lot of difficulties．D.pick up words more quickly．（3）What was found about fights among siblings？________A.Siblings hated fighting and loved playing．B.Siblings in some families fought frequently．C.Sibling fights led to bad sibling relationships．D.Siblings learned to get on together from fights．（4）The w ord“feminine”（in Para.4）means“________”．A.having qualities of parentsB． C.having defensive qualities.D.having extraordinary qualities．17. Brrriiinnng．The alarm clock announces the start of another busy weekday in the mor ning．You jump out of bed, rush into the shower, into your clothes and out the door with ha rdly a moment to think．A stressful journey to work gets your blood pressure climbing．On ce at the office, you glance through the newspaper with depressing stories or reports of disa sters．In that sort of mood, who can get down to work, particularly some creative, original p roblem-solving work?The way most of us spend our mornings is exactly opposite to the conditions that promote flexible, open-minded thinking．Imaginative ideas are most likely to come to us when we're unfocused．If you are one of those energetic morning people, your most inventive time comes in the early evening when you are relaxed．Sleepy people's lack of focus leads to an increase in creative problem solving．By not giving yourself time to tune into your wandering mind, you're missi ng out on the surprising solutions it may offer．The trip you take to work doesn't help, either．The stress slows down the speed with whi ch signals travel between neurons （神经细胞）, making inspirations less likely to occur．And while we all should read a lot about what 's going on in the world, it would not make you feel good for sure, so put that news websiteor newspaper aside until after the day's work is done．So what would our mornings look like if we wanted to start them with a full capacity for cr eative problem solving? We'd set the alarm a few minutes early and lie awake in bed, followi ng our thoughts where they lead．We'd stand a little longer under the warm water of the sh ower, stopping thinking about tasks in favor of a few more minutes of relaxation．We'd take some deep breaths on our way to work, instead of complaining about heavy traffic．And on ce in the office-after we get a cup of coffee-we'd click on links not to the news of the day but to the funniest videos the web has to offer．（1）According to the author，we are more creative when we are________．A.focused B． C.awake D．（2）What does the author imply about newspapers？________A.They are solution providers．B.They are a source of inspiration．C.They are normally full of bad news．D.They are more educational than websites．（3）By"tune into your wandering mind"（in Para.2），the author means"________"．A.wander into the wild.B.listen to a beautiful tune．C.switch to the traffic channel D．（4）The author writes the last paragraph in order to________．A.offer practical suggestions.B.summarize past experiences．C.advocate diverse ways of life D．五、书面表达（共两节，满分20分）第一节：完成句子（共10小题；每小题2分，满分20分）阅读下列各小题，根据汉语提示，用句末括号内的英语单词完成句子，并将答案写在答题卡上的相应题号后．18.

1.填空题1.They married last month but I didn’t attend their w_______.答案'wedding'解析wedding意为 “婚礼” ,根据句子中married可知,此处应填wedding.句意:他们上个月结婚了,但是我没有参加他们的婚礼。
根据所给词汇或所学语法知识填空，每空不限1词。
2.（1）Unless you respect other people's religions, ________（horror）mistakes and conflict will occur.答案'（1）horrible'解析（1）horrible 考查形容词。
结合语境可推知，此处表示：除非你尊重别人的宗教，否则可怕的错误和冲突就会发生。
空处修饰后面的名词mistakes和conflict，结合语境可知，此处应填入所给词的形容词形式horrible“可怕的”作定语。
2.（2）Seeing that was happening ________ the scene, I made rush for the woman for help.答案'（2）on '解析（2）on 考查介词。
根据空后the scene并结合语境可推知，此处表示：在现场。
所以此处应为固定搭配：on the scene在现场。
2.（3）It's easy for you to say that, but ________（actual）it is not so simple.答案'（3）actually'解析（3）actually 考查副词。

2012年高考英语试题(湖北卷)解析
湖北卷21. 答案：A解析：句意：两位律师捐出5万美元来赞助我们学校的“救助贫困生”活动，这项活动是由我们的前任校长在三年前发起的。
本题考查动词的辨析：sponsor“赞助”，launch“发射；发起”，organize“组织”，plan“计划”。
sponsor最适合句意；launch有迷惑性，但此处选launch 的话与“我们的前任校长在三年前发起”相矛盾。
22. 答案：C解析：句意：最后，我要感激我的老师，是他为我的论文提出了大量建议和意见，并为之润色。
本题考查动词的辨析：approve“同意；赞成”，quote“引用”，polish“磨光；润色”，fold“折叠”。
为每一页手稿“润色”最合句意。
23. 答案：B解析：句意：一个人走在黑暗中，这个小男孩吹起了口哨好壮胆。
本题考查含有up的短语动词的辨析：hold up“举起；阻挡”，keep up“保持”，set up“建起”，take up“拿起；开始”。
此处易误以为take up courage“鼓起勇气”，但根据句意，此处应为“给自己壮胆；不害怕”，而keep up courage“保持勇气”就可以表示这层含义。
24. 答案：A解析：句意：我非常高兴您能到这里来亲自处理这个问题。
本题考查短语动词的辨析：lead to“通向；导致”，see to“处理；照顾”，turn to“转向；求助于”，refer to“提及；涉及；参考”。
根据句意，此处应为turn to this matter in person“亲自处理此事”。
25. 答案：B解析：句意：这件家具款式时尚、色彩亮丽，非常适合现代的花园楼房；不过，如果放在传统的家庭环境中就不协调了。
本题考查含有out of的短语的辨析：out of question“没问题”，out of order“出故障；混乱；不整齐”，out of sight“在视野外；看不见”，out of place“不在恰当的地方；不合适；不恰当”。

1.（1）We'll make it before the clock ________ nine.（敲击）答案'（1）strikes'解析（1）strikes 考查主谓一致。
句意：在钟表敲响9点钟之前我们将要成功。
根据汉语提示可知是strike“敲击”，the clock是单数，所以谓语要用第三人称单数形式，时态是一般现在时。
故填strikes。
1.（2）Welcome to drop in if it is ________ to you.（方便的）答案'（2）convenient'解析（2）convenient 考查形容词。
句意：如果你方便的话，欢迎来串门。
根据汉语提示可知是形容词convenient“方便的”。
故填convenient。
1.（3）If you have any questions, don't ________ to ask me.（犹豫）答案'（3）hesitate'解析（3）hesitate 考查动词。
句意：如果你有任何问题，请别犹豫问我。
根据汉语提示可知是动词hesitate“犹豫”，该句为祈使句，don't后跟动词原形，hesitate to do sth“犹豫做某事”，故填hesitate。
1.（4）Books in the library are often ________ according to subjects.（分类）答案'（4）classified/sorted'解析（4）classified/sorted 考查一般现在时的被动语态。
句意：图书馆的书经常被按照学科来分类。
根据汉语提示可知是classify/sort“分类”，主语“书”和谓语动词“分类”构成被动关系，根据often可知是一般现在时，所以用一般现在时的被动语态，构成为：be动词+过去分词，该空缺少过去分词。
