（共20小题，每题2分，满分40分）( A )Most of us have ever imagined the life on a desert island. We sometimes imagine a desert island to be a sort of paradise(天堂) where the sun always shines. Life there is simple and good. Ripe fruit falls from the trees and you are free to sit around without any work. This is really a beautiful picture, isn’t it? However, the other side of the picture is quite the opposite. Life on a desert island is awful. You either starve to death or live like Robinson Crusoe, waiting for a boat which never comes.Perhaps there is some truth in both these pictures, but few us have had the chance to find out. We can only experience it in the story like the following.Many years ago, two men spent five days on a coral island and they wished that they could stay there longer. They were driving a badly damaged boat from the Virgin Islands to Miami to have it repaired. During the journey, their boat began to sink(下沉). They quickly put food, matches, and cans of beer into a rubber dinghy(救生筏) and rowed for a few miles across the Caribbean until they arrived at a tiny coral island.There were hardly any trees on the island and there was no water, but this did not seem to be a problem. The men collected rainwater in the rubber dinghy. As they had brought a gun with them, they had plenty to eat. They caught lobster and fish every day, and they thought they lived just like a king. Five days later, a tank passed by and saved them. However, they felt sorry that they had to leave.( ) 26. What kind of life on the island was Not mentioned according to Paragraph 1?A.

They put necessary things into a small rubber dinghy.c. They arrived at a tiny coral island.d. Their boat began to sink.e. They were saved by a tank.A. d-b-a-c-eB. d-b-c-a-eC. c-a-d-b-eD. c-d-b-a-e( ) 29. The underlined word “it” in the third paragraph means “ ”.A. the boatB. the journeyC. the pictureD. the rubber dinghy( ) 30. What can we know from the passage?A. The two men were sacred because of no water.B. The two men became the king on the island.C. The two men would stay on the coral island forever.D. The two men didn’t want to leave the coral island.( B )Leonardo da Vinci was born on April 15, 1452 in Italy. He is best known as an artist today. One of his famous paintings is called Mona Lisa. However, Leonardo had many other natural abilities. He was also a great inventor. Many of his inventions have become important in modern day life. Although Leonardo hated war, he invented many different machines used for wars. His most special invention was the machine gun, which was produced and used in war many years later.By watching the way birds fly, Leonardo tried to find out the secret of f lying. Among his sketches we can see several objects. We consider them as modern flying machines.Leonardo spent many hours thinking about how to make good use of time. He developed ideas for labor-saving machines like cutting machines.Leonardo was a strange man. He didn't eat any meat, which was unusual in those times. He never published his ideas and scientific discoveries. He usually used mirror writing, which looks like writing in a mirror, starting from the right side of the page and moving to the left.We have very little of his work today. Leonardo finished only a few of his paintings. He left many unfinished because he thought they were not perfect. No one in his life time knew how great Leonardo was. We now believe, however, that he was one of the cleverest men the world has ever known.( ) 31.

Or in a waiting room full of strangers? Or on a bus? Researchers have found out some interesting facts.Perhaps unsurprisingly, we prefer to sit closer to people like ourselves. Girls sit by girls and boys sit by boys. Adults sit together and young people choose another young person to sit near. But it goes further than this. We even choose to sit near someone who looks like us. People with glasses are more likely to sit near other people with glasses. People with long hair sit closer to other people with long hair.We seem to believe that people with similar habits or hobbies will share similar attitude and we are more likely to be accepted by people like ourselves or even, we think we may be safer with people who look like us. Sometimes that’s true but it's a pity i f we always stick to the same people, the same group. The danger in always staying in our comfort zone (舒适区)is that we just recycle the same opinions, the same tastes and the same ideas. We lose the chance to learn something new, find out about interesting things, hear funny stories and discover difference. When we always stick to the same people, how can we ever break down the barriers which prevent us from getting to know people with different ideas? And how can we avoid the ignorance (无知),which too often leads to prejudice (偏见) and even fear? If instead you want to live in a society that opens to changes and new things and different opinions, be the cat among the pigeons.Move out of your comfort zone. Go and sit next to someone different. And don't just sit there in silence. Say hello. Ask a question. Start a conversation. That’s how we make friends. That’s how we learn about people. That’s how we open our minds to new ideas. That's how we live an exciting life.( ) 41. From the passage, we know that people prefer sitting by someone whoA. is like themselvesB. has a sense of humorC. is open-mindedD. lives an exciting life( ) 42.People like staying in their comfort zone because they mayA. remain comfortable and specialB. be accepted easily and feel safeC. find out more interesting thingsD. discover differences among themselves( ) 43.The underlined word “barriers” in P aragraph 4 means .A. doorsB. difficultiesC. ideasD. rules( ) 44. Why does the writer ask us to meet people of different kinds?A. Because we feel safer and share similar tastes and ideas.B. Because we can enjoy an interesting and different ideas.C. Because we can say hello and ask them questions.D. Because we want to live in a society full of humour.( ) 45.What is the title of this passage?A. Just to be ourselvesB. Learn more about the foreign countriesC. Live an exciting lifeD. Jump out of the comfort zone第二节阅读填空（共5小题，每题1分，满分5分）阅读短文及文后选项，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

AInside the Rain RoomThe Rain Room has arrived and local art lovers are taking notice. Is it worth the wait? Yes, I assure you it is. Once inside, visitors find a long, dark room with a high ceiling. A single bright light shines through heavy rain falling around visitors. The mist. The damp air. The noise. It feels like a mighty storm is pouring down. But the storm is inside. And visitors aren’t getting wet. Instead, visitors wander in awe, admiring the rain and the artists who created it.The Rain Room was created to highlight the connection between humans, nature and technology. With a tracking system that senses movement and stops the rain wherever visitors move, it does just that. Light and sound produce an experience that feels both natural and foreign. The exhibit is moving on to Atlanta next month. I urge you to visit before then. It’s time to experience the Rain Room for yourself!Welcome to the Rain Room●The Rain Room features falling water. Please be aware you may get slightly wet.However, visitors wearing raincoats will be turned away.●This exhibit features advanced technology. To ensure its effectiveness, please avoidwearing dark or reflective clothing.●Visitors are welcome to take photographs of the exhibit.●Children must be accompanied by an adult.●For the convenience of all guests, visits are limited to 10 minutes.21.What’s the purpose of the text?A.To attract visitors to a new art exhibit.B.To explain how an exhibit has been created.C.To describe the technology used in the exhibitD.To promote the artists taking part in an exhibit.22.What’s the function of the exhibit’s tracking system?A.To keep visitors from getting wet.B.To protect the exhibit from water damage.C.To time how long visitors are in the room.D.To count the number of visitors in the room.23.What must you do when visiting the Rain Room?A.Wear a raincoat.B. Wear dark clothing.C. Leave your camera outsideD. Pass through within 10 minutesBDujiangyan is the oldest man-made water system in the world, and a wonder in the development of Chinese science. Built over 2,200 years ago in what is now Sichuan Province in Southwest China, this amazing engineering achievement is still used today to irrigate over 6,000 square kilometres of farmland, take away floodwater and provide water for 50 cities in the province.In ancient times, the region in which Dujiangyan now stands suffered from regular floods caused by overflow from the Minjiang River. To help the victims of the flooding, Li Bing, the region’s governor, together with his son, decided to find a solution. They studied the problem and discovered that the river most often overflowed when winter snow at the top of the nearby Mount Yulei began to melt as the weather warmed.The simplest fix was to build a dam, but this would have mined the Minjiang River. So instead Li designed a series of channels built at different levels along Mount Yulei that would take away the floodwater while leaving the river flowing naturally. Better still, the extra water could be directed to the dry Chengdu Plain, making it suitable for farming.Cutting the channels through the hard rock of Mount Yulei was a remarkable accomplish- ment as it was done long before the invention of gunpowder and explosives. Li Bing found another solution. He used a combination of fire and water to heat and cool the rocks until they cracked and could be removed. After eight years of work, the 2-metre-wide canals had been carved through the mountain.Once the system was finished, no more floods occurred and the people were able to live peacefully and affluently. Today, Dujiangyan is admired by scientists from around the world because of one feature. Unlike modern dams where the water is blocked with a huge wall, Dujiangyan still lets water flow through the Minjiang River naturally, enabling ecosystems and fish populations to exist in harmony.24.What are the benefits of Dujiangyan according to the first paragraph?A.Reducing flooding and watering farmland.B.Protecting the mountain and reducing flooding.C.Watering farmland and improving water quality.D.Drying the river and supplying cities with water.25.What was the main cause of the Minjiang River’s flooding?A.Heavy rains.B. Melting snow.C. Low river banks.D. Steepmountains.26.How was Li Bing able to break。

lives．He was born in London，England in 1955．When he was a small boy，Tim was interested in playing with electrical things．He studied science at Oxford University．He made his first computer from an old television at the age of 21．Tim started working on early computers．At that time，they were much bigger than now．He worked in England then Switzerland．Tim was really interested in two things，computers and how the brain works．How could the brain connect so many facts so quickly？He had to work with people all over the world．They shared information about computers．It was hard to manage all the information．He answered the same questions again and again．took a lot of time．It was even difficult for computersin the same office in Switzerland to share information．Tim also forgot things easily．Could a computer work like a brain？Could it"talk"to other computers？There was an Internet already but it was difficult to use．In 1989，Tim Berners﹣Lee invented the World Wide Web（WWW）all by himself．This had a special language that helped computers talk to each other on the Internet．When people wanted to share information with others，they used the World Wide Web．The Internet grew quickly after that．Tim Berners﹣Lee doesn't think he did anything special．He says that all of the ideas about the Internet were already there．All he did was to put them together．He says that many other people worked together to make the Internet what it is today．Most inventors want to become rich．But Tim gave away the World Wide Web for nothing．He now works in America．He helps people share technology and

public library．A library usually has a large selection of books and other resources，which library me mbers can use and borrow for free．Britain's First Public LibraryThe first public library in Britain opened in Manchester in1852．It's first librarian was a man called Edward Edwards，Edwards attended the library's opening ceremony and two famous writers called Charles Dickens and William Thackeray were there too．How to Join aLibraryTo join a library，go to your local library and fill in a form．you'll receive a library card which is needed when using library services．Mobile LibrariesNot everyone can get a library．Some people live far away from towns and cities．Other people find it difficult to go out because they have an illness or a disability．Thanks to mobile libraries，these people can still borrow books．Unlike most libraries，which store books in buildings，mobile libraries usually keep their books in a mini﹣bus．The back of the mini﹣bus has shelves for the books，and it is big enough for borrowers to step inside and look around．A driver takes the mini ﹣bus to a certain place at a certain time，so people know when to expect it．They can then return their books and borrow some more．All Aboard the LibraryA schoo l in London didn't have space for a library inside the building．However，everybody agreed that it was still important to have a school library．So the head ofthe school，Graham Blake decided to park an old bus on the school car park andchanged it into a library．Pupils helped to paint the bus，and after eight months，thenew library was ready．36．Who was the first librarian of the first public library in Britain？A．Charles Dickens．B．William Thackeray．C．Edward Edwards．D．Graham Blake．37．Who can use public library services？A．CD or DVD sellers．B．Anyone living in Britain．C．A person with a library card．D．Newspaper or book writers．38．What is special about the mobile library？A．Keeping books in buildings．B．Returning books to readers．C．Offering special services to pupils．D．Going to a certain place at a certain time．39．Why did the school in London build its library on an old bus？A．Because parents offered the school an old bus．B．Because pupils thought it was fun to read on a bus．C．Because the school didn't have enough money to buy books．D．Because the school didn't have enough space inside the building．40．What can we learn from the passage？A．Schools in London like mobile libraries．B．Public library services in the UK are free．C．People living far away can't use libraries．D．Many famous British writers lived in Manchester．41．People can't see you when you're speaking on the phone，but they can hear you．So，the wayyou speak is especially important．In fact，researchers have calculated that 80% of communication over the phone is through your tone of voice；and only 20% is from the words you use．Here are our top tips on how to speak over the phone．1．Facial ExpressionsYour facial expression can influence your voice．For example，if you smile，your voice will sound warm and friendly，just the opposite，if you have an angry look on your face，it can make you sound unpleasant．2．VolumeIf you speak too loudly，you could sound angry．And if you speak too softly，it'll be difficult to hear you．So，speak loudly enough to be heard clearly，but not so loud that you're shouting．3．PaceThe pace of your voice is how quickly you speak．And this can show how you feel．For example，an angry person might speak faster than normal．Or a downhearted person might speak very slowly．Try speaking a little more slowly than normal．This will make you sound confident，and it'll make it easier for the other person to understand you．4．GesturesGesturing can influence the tone of your voice．When you gesture，you bring more air into the lungs，which can make your voice sound warmer．Gestures are also useful to help you stress the right words or even find the words you need．The best thing about gesturing during a phone call is that no one can see what you're doing，so you can gesture as wildly as you like!5．MovementIf you're feeling nervous，stand up and move around．It will reduce the nervousness in your body and help your voice to sound more confident．6．Pauses （停顿）Using pauses every now and then can help you to slow down．This will make you sound more confident and in control．Also，if you pause after giving some new information，it'll give the other person time to understand it．At the same time，listen to how the other person uses pauses．They could tell you something about the speaker's feeling．For example，when a speaker is really angry，he might use pauses and says，"I…am…so…angry…"41．How much of telephone communication is from the words you use？A.20%．B.40%．C.60%．D.80%．42．What can people do to reduce their nervousness on the phone？A．Gesture wildly．B．Move around．C．Raise their voices．D．Make facial expressions．43．How can pauses help people talk on the phone？A．The speaker can show he is friendly．B．The speaker can tell more information．C．The listener will feel confident and in control．D．The listener will have time to understand the words．44．What is the passage mainly about？A．How to control the speed of your speech．B．Different good ways of talking on the phone．C．Reasons of making gestures while talking．D．How to improve communication among friends．45．What is the writer's opinion about telephone talk？A．Your voice on the phone will show what you're feeling．B．Using too many pauses while talking will annoy others．C．Speaking loudly makes it easier for others to understand you．D．The words you use are more important than the way you speak．第二节阅读填空阅读短文及文后A～E选项，选出可以填入46～50各题空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑．46．In the middle of my home country there are very large places．They are hot and dry land called deserts．（46）Families live a long way from other people．Sometimes they are the only people for thousands of kilometres．（47）About 65years ago these people found that using strong radios was a possible way for families living far away to communicate with each other．They decided they could use the radios for school．In this way，children could talk to each other like at school．（48）The children each spent about 30minutes a day on the radio．They talked to their teacher about their work and difficulties．The teacher designed some exercises and tasks based on what they learned and posted them to the children．After finishing their work，the children sent it back to their teacher to mark．（49）He tried to visit each child twice each year．This was sometimes difficult．The journey was very long and could be dangerous．In addition，the school held camps once a year．The children could all meet each other and shared their learning experience．（50）The government provides families with computers so that the children can use the Internet to talk to their teachers and classmates by e﹣mail now．The teachers enjoy their work very much because they get to know the children and their families very well．It is an interesting way to

Most of us have ever imagined the life on a desert island． We sometimes imagine a desert island to be a sort of paradise（天堂） where the sun always shines． Life there is simple and good． Ripe fruit falls from the trees and you are free to sit around without any work． This is really a beautiful picture, isn't it? However, the other side of the picture is quite the opposite． Life on a desert island is awful． You either starve to death or live like Robinson Crusoe, waiting for a boat which never comes．Perhaps there is some truth in both these pictures, but few us have had the chance to find out． We can only experience it in the story like the following．Many years ago, two men spent five days on a coral island and they wished that they could stay there longer． They were driving a badly damaged boat from the Virgin Islands to Miami to have it repaired． During the journey, their boat began to sink（下沉）． They quickly put food, matches, and cans of beer into a rubber dinghy（救生筏） and rowed fora few miles across the Caribbean until they arrived at a tiny coral island．There were hardly any trees on the island and there was no water, but this did not seem tobe a problem． The men collected rainwater in the rubber dinghy． As they had brought a gun with them, they had plenty to eat． They caught lobster and fish every day, and they thought they lived just like a king． Five days later, a tank passed by and savedthem． However, they felt sorry that they had to leave．（1）． What kind of life on the island was Not mentioned according to Paragraph 1？________A A simple and good life．B A sort of paradise life．C A terrible life．D A common life．（2）． What did the two men put into the small rubber dinghy？________A Food， medicine and cans．B Food， matches and medicine．C Food， beerand matches． D Food， fish and cans．（3）． In what order did the following events take place？________a． They collected rainwater in the rubber dinghy．b． They put necessary things into a small rubber dinghy．c． They arrived at a tiny coral island．d． Their boat began to sink．e． They were saved by a tank．A d﹣b﹣a﹣c﹣e．B d﹣b﹣c﹣a﹣e．C c﹣a﹣d﹣b﹣e．D c﹣d﹣b﹣a﹣e．（4）． The underlined word "it" in the third paragraph means "________ "．A the boat．B the journey．C the picture．D the rubber dinghy．（5）． What can we know from the passage？________A The two men were sacred because of no water．B The two men became the king on the island．C The two men would stay on the coral island forever．D The two men didn't want to leave the coral island．4. Leonardo da Vinci was born on April 15, 1452in Italy． He is best known as an artist today． One of his famous paintings is called Mona Lisa． However, Leonardo had many other natural abilities． He was also a great inventor． Many of his inventions have become important in modern day life． Although Leonardo hated war, he invented many different machines used for wars． His most special invention was the machine gun, which was produced and used in war many years later．By watching the way birds fly, Leonardo tried to find out the secret of f lying． Among his sketches we can see several objects． We consider them as modern flying machines．Leonardo spent many hours thinking about how to make good use of time． He developed ideas for labor﹣saving machines like cutting machines．Leonardo was a strange man． He didn't eat any meat, which was unusual in those times． He never published his ideas and scientific discoveries． He usually used mirror writing, which looks like writing in a mirror, starting from the right side of the page and moving to the left．We have very little of his work today． Leonardo finished only a few of his paintings． He left many unfinished because he thought they were not perfect． No one in his life timeknew how great Leonardo was． We now believe, however, that he was one of the cleverest men the world has ever known．（1）． According to the passage， Leonardo was not only an artist but also________．A a musician．B an inventor．C a writer．D an engineer．（2）． Was Leonardo's most special invention．________A The mirror writing．B The cutting machine．C The machine gun．D The flying machine．（3）． Which of the following statements is true about Leonardo？________A He usually wrote in a mirror．B He didn't eat any meat．C He liked to publishhis discoveries． D He enjoyed drawing flying machines．（4）． What is the purpose of the passage？________A To let us know more about Leonardo．B To introduce Leonardo's great inventions．C To discuss Leonardo's famous paintings．D To introduce a great artist to us．（5）． Where is the passage probably from？________A A science story．B A picture book．C An encyclopedia．D A travel booklet．（1）At________， students are having a painting lesson．A 9：30a． m．B 11：35a． m．C 1：30p． m．D 2：15p． m．．（2）Students should prepare a new part of________ ahead of time as their homework．A TechnologyB BiologyC DramaD Chemistry．（3）Students can learn how to________ according to the information in the table．A make a videoB write a report on DramaC play basketballD surf the Internet safely．（4）An average student need about________ minutes to finish his homework．A 30B 40C 90D 110．（5）The information in the table is mainly for students to________．A take classesB do their homeworkC choose teachersD organize hobby groups．6. Have you ever wondered what goes through your mind when you choose where to sit ina new classroom? Or in a waiting room full of strangers? Or on a bus? Researchers have found out some interesting facts．Perhaps unsurprisingly, we prefer to sit closer to people like ourselves． Girls sit by girls and boys sit by boys． Adults sit together and young people choose another young person to sit near． But it goes further than this． We even choose to sit near someone who looks like us． People with glasses are more likely to sit near other people with glasses． People with long hair sit closer to other people with long hair．We seem to believe that people with similar habits or hobbies will share similar attitude and we are more likely to be accepted by people like ourselves or even, we think we may be safer with people who look like us． Sometimes that's true but it's a pity if we always stick to the same people, the same group． The danger in always staying in our comfort zone （舒适区）is that we just recycle the same opinions, the same tastes and the same ideas． We lose the chance to learn something new, find out about interesting things, hear funny stories and discover difference．When we always stick to the same people, how can we ever break down the barriers which prevent us from getting to know people with different ideas? And how can we avoid the ignorance （无知）, which too often leads to prejudice （偏见） and even fear? If instead you want to live in a society that opens to changes and new things and different opinions, be the cat among the pigeons．Move out of your comfort zone． Go and sit next to someone different． And don't just sit there in silence． Say hello． Ask a question． Start a conversation． That's how we make friends． That's how we learn about people． That's how we open our minds to new ideas． That's how we live an exciting life．（1）． From the passage， we know that people prefer sitting by someone who________A is like themselves．B has a sense of humor．C is open﹣minded．D lives an exciting life．（2）．People like staying in their comfort zone because they may________A remain comfortable and special．B be accepted easily and feel safe．C find out more interesting things．D discover differences among themselves．（3）．The underlined word "barriers" in Paragraph 4means________．A doors．B difficulties．C ideas．D rules．（4）． Why does the writer ask us to meet people of different kinds？________A Because we feel safer and share similar tastes and ideas．B Because we can enjoy an interesting and different ideas．C Because we can say hello and ask them questions．D Because we want to live in a society full of humour．（5）．What is the title of this passage？________A Just to be ourselves．B Learn more about the foreign countries．C Live an exciting life．D Jump out of the comfort zone．三. 阅读填空（共1小题，每题1分，满分5分）阅读短文及文后选项，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项．7.
