Grammar and vocabularySection ADirections: After reading the passages below, fill in the blanks to make the passages coherent and grammatically correct. For the blanks with a given word, fill in each blank with the proper form of the given word; for the other blanks, use one word that best fits each blank.Your comfort zone is basically all of the situation in which you feel confident and “at home”; for example, doing the job you’ve done for a long time, (21)________（socialize）with a group of people you know well or living in a place you (22)________(live）all your life.Stepping out of your comfort zone, for example, starting a new job, going to a party where you don’t know anyone or moving to another part of the country, can be frightening, but (23)________ you do so, your confidence grows.Confident people also have comfort zones, but the difference between them and people (lack) (24)________confidence is (25)________they are willing to take risks and try new things (26)______ ______ ______ their fears.Confidence comes from taking action, not from inaction; each time you succeed in doing something (27)________ you fear, your comfort zone will expand. If you drive, think of your first driving lesson –probably you (28)________(terrify) at the thought of driving 100 meters –but as you gradually improved your skills, your confidence grew and now you could probably drive 100 miles (29)________ worrying.If you lack confidence, you may find yourself (30)________(stick) in a situation you are unhappy with – such as being in a relationship that is no longer working, spending hours travelling to work on the bus or train because you fear learning to drive, or doing a job you dislike or find fulfilling --- because you are too afraid to take the first step towards changing your life.Section BDirections: Complete the following passage by using the words in the box. Each word can only be used once. Note that there is one word more than you need.It is a familiar scene these days: employees taking newly laid-off co-workers out for a drink for comfort. But which side deserves 31 more, the jobless or the still employed? On March 6, researchers at a conference at the University of Cambridge heard data suggesting it's the latter: compared with people who are straight-up laid off, those who keep their job but under a constant threat of losing it suffer a great 32 _ in mental well-being.Brendan Burchell, a Cambridge sociologist, presented his analysis based on various surveys conducted across Europe. The data suggest that employed people who feel insecure in their jobs show 33 levels of anxiety and depression as th ose who are unemployed. Although a newly jobless person’s mental health may “bottom out” after about six months, and then even begin to improve, the mental state of people who are 34 worried about losing their job “just continues to get worse and worse”, Burchell says.Evolutionary psychologists support this theory by arguing that human beings feel more stress during times of 35 because they sense an immediate but invisible threat. Patients have been known to experience higher levels of anxiety, for example, while waiting for examination results than knowing what they are suffering from—even if the result is cancer. It's better to get the bad news and start doing something about it rather than wait with anxiety. When the 36___ continues, people stay in a nonstop “fight or flight” response, which leads to 37 stress.But not every employee in insecure industries has such a 38 view, Burchell says. In general, women get on better. While reporting higher levels of anxiety than men when directly __39 , women scored lower in stress on the GHQ 12, even when they had a job they felt insecure about losing. As Burchell explains, “For women, most studies show that any job—it doesn't matter whether it is secure or insecure — gives psychological im provement over unemployment.” Burchell supposes that the difference in men is that they tend to feel pressure not only to be employed, but also to be the 40 breadwinner, and that more of a man’s self-worth depends on his job.III. Reading ComprehensionSection ADirections:For each blank in the following passages there are four words or phrases marked A, B, C and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.As computer technology has improved, today’s online environment s have become more complex and realistic. One website that has 41 over six million Internet users is Second Life. Second Life is a three-dimensional (3-D) online world where people work, shop, sell and trade items, meet others, go to concerts and much more. Users, who are called “residents,” create their own characters, or “avatars,” They use their avatars to 42 Second Life’s virtual world.Just like any country, Second Life has its own 43 . Using a credit card, users can buy “Linden Dollars,” the official currency of Second Life. With Linden dollars, they can 44 land or even an entire island where they can build and decorate their own house. Land is treated as a valuable commodity （商品） in Second Life. Residents can choose to rent or sell their land to other users, and they can earn real money from these 45 _ .When residents want to be 46 , they can use their avatars to interact with others. There are games, shopping malls, clubs, and many kinds of stores 47 to residents. With so many opportunities for interesting things to do and see, it’s easy to see why so many users devote so much time to the site.Second Life offers users a quick and easy 48 from the real world. Many residents see this as one of the main 49 of using the site. Spending time on Second Life allows them to escape the stresses and problems of their daily lives. If a user is having a stressful day at work, she can visit a beautiful island, go skiing, or even fly to another planet during her lunch break.50 escaping the stress of their daily lives, users can also escape who they are in the real world and live out their fantasies. 51 , residents can change their occupations, physical appearance, and even their nationalities. A doctor from the United States can be a Brazilian musician on Second Life.52 , Second Life lets users live in a world without 53 .Although Second Life started as a way for people to escape the real world, it has become more and more 54 to the real world in many ways. Now on Second Life, some countries have virtual embassies, businesses have meetings in 55 rooms, and universities have places where students can view the campus and take classes. Today, Second Life allows users to experience both fantasy and reality in the same place.41. A. persuaded B. devoted C. attracted D. contacted42. A. explore B. create C. fight D. approach43.

For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.（A）Behind most of the bad things we do to our bodies as adults, eating more than we should is the idea we carry with us from childhood. On one hand, we assume that we are indestructible. On the other hand, we think that any damage we impose on ourselves can be undone when we finally clean up our act.If the evidence for how wrong the first idea is isn’t apparent when you stand naked in front of the mirror, just wait. But what if you eat right and drop all your bad habits? Is there still time to repair the damage?To a surprising degree, the answer is yes. Over the past five years, scientists have collected a wealth of data about what happens when aging people with bad habits decide to turn their lives around.The heartening conclusion: the body has an amazing ability to heal itself, provided the damage is not too great.The effects of some bad habits —smoking, in particular—can haunt you for decades. But the damage from other habits can be largely healed.“Any time you improve your behavior and make lifestyle changes, they make a difference from that point on.” says Dr. Jeffrey Koplan. “Maybe not right away. It’s like slamming on the brakes. You do need a certain distance. ”But the distance can be remarkably short. Consider the recent announcements from the front lines of medical research:—A study concluded that women who consume as little as two servings of fish a week cut their risk ofsuffering a stroke to half that of women who eat less than one serving of fish a month.—The day you quit smoking, the carbon monoxide levels in your body drop dramatically. Within weeks, your blood becomes less sticky and your risk of dying from a heart attack starts to decline…Adopting healthy habits won’t cure all that bothers you, of course. But doctors believe that many chronic diseases—from high blood pressure to heart disease and even some cancers—can be warded off with a few sensible changes in lifestyle.Not sure where to start? Surprisingly, it doesn’t matter, since one positive change usually leads to another. Make enough changes, and you’ll discover you’ve adopted a new way of life.56. Most people with bad habits of eating more than they should believe that ______.A. they can never change the habits that have haunted them for decadesB. their bodies cannot be damaged by the bad habitsC. their bodies can heal all the damage without the help from outsideD. they can force themselves to clean up the had habits later57. The evidence against the assumption that we are indestructible_____.A. is seldom apparentB. is clearly shown in the mirrorC. will appear obvious sooner or laterD. is still a question58. According to the recent announcements______.A. women should eat as much fish as possibleB. women are at a higher risk of suffering a stroke than menC. men don’t have to eat as much fish as womenD. eating a little more fish can improve women’s health59. It is implied in the passage that______ .A. smokers have lower levels of carbon monoxide than non-smokersB. the blood of smokers is more sticky than that of non-smokersC. smokers will be unlikely to die from heart attack if they quit smokingD. chronic diseases can be cured if we drop our habit of smoking（B）Beijing is hardly alone in its air pollution problems. The world Health Organization has said that roughly half of the world’s urban population is exposed to pollution at least 2.5 times higher than it recommends.While it may take years to fix this global problem, innovative minds in the Asia region have come up with creative solutions for living with air pollution.DIY PurifierThomas Talhelm started worrying about the air inside his Beijing home during“airpocalypse”(空气末日) in 2013 when Beijing’s air quality index skyrocketed to aterrifying 755.The scholar couldn’t afford the luxury of an expensive air purifier. “Filters (过滤器) are actually very simple—a high efficient filter is all you need to get over 96%of the PM2.5,” he said.With three of his friends, Talhelm created Smart Air, an air purifier consisting ofa basic household fan with a high efficient filter attached to it.It works as efficiently as the big brands selling for thousands of dollars, removing more than 90 percent of PM2.5 in your room, according to Talhelm’s research.Invisible MaskInfipure’s “nose mask”claims to cut 99% of PM2.5 without the trouble of a surgicalface mask.The filters, made from special materials, are inserted into your nose and aim to be undetectable.“People care about their health, but don’t want all the downsides that come with a traditional face mask,” Infipure co-founder Francis Law explained.Plant BackpackTaiwanese artist Chui Chih has designed a survival device for an apocalyptic world.Named Voyage on the Planet, a potted plant is housed inside a clear backpack hooked upto two tubes to bring fresh air to a face mask. It’s a bold, abstract idea from an oxygen tank.Smog VacuumDaan Roosegaarde has been working on a smog vacuum that will suck pollutants from thesky to the ground like a vacuum, making way for clean air.A byproduct of this smog vacuum, namely The Smog Free Tower, is the “smog ring”—a piece of jewelry made from smog particulates(微粒).“The pollution we suck up, the small particulates, we don’t throw them away. We put them under pressure for a couple of weeks and they crystallize(结晶), creating somethinglike a diamond,” Roosegaarde explains.60. Thomas Talhelm invented Smart Air for all the following reasons except _______.A. the high price of the big brandsB. the poor quality of the indoor airC. the help from three of his friendsD. the simple principle behind the device61. If someone wants to travel around in those polluted days, which product will he mostprobably choose for the sake of convenience?A. Smart Air.B. The Smog Free Tower.C. Voyage on the Planet.D. Infipure’s nose mask.62. In which solution the inventor also makes use of the dust collected from the polluted air?A. Invisible Mask.B. Smog Vacuum.C. Plant Backpack.D. DIY Purifier.（C）A scientist working at her lab bench and a six-month-old baby playing with his food might seem to have little in common. After all, the scientist is engaged in serious research to uncover the very nature of the physical world, and the baby is, well, just playing…right? Perhaps, but some developmental psychologists have argued that this“play”is more like a scientific investigation than one might think.Take a closer look at the baby playing at the table. Each time the bowl of rice is pushed over the table edge, it falls to the ground—and, in the process, it brings out important evidence about how physical objects interact; bowls of rice do not float in mid-air, but require support to remain stable. It is likely that babies are not born knowing this basic fact of the universe; nor are they ever clearly taught it. Instead, babies may form an understanding of object support through repeated experiments and then build on this knowledge to learn even more about how objects interact. Though their ranges and tools differ, the baby’s investigation and the scientist’s experiment appear to share the same aim(to learn about the natural world), overall approach (gathering direct evidence from the world), and logic (are my observations what I expected?).Some psychologists suggest that young children learn about more than just the physical world in this way—that they investigate human psychology and the rules of language using similar means. For example, it may only be through repeated experiments, evidence gathering, and finally overturning a theory that a baby will come to accept the idea that other people can have different views and desires from what he or she has, for ex ample, unlike the child, Mommy actually doesn’t like Dove chocolate.Viewing childhood development as a scientific investigation throws light on how children learn, but it also offers an inspiring look at science and scientists. Why do young children and scientists seem to be so much alike? Psychologists have suggested that science as an effort—the desire to explore, explain, and understand our world—is simply something that comes from our babyhood. Perhaps evolution provided human babies with curiosity and a natural drive to explain their worlds, and adult scientists simply make use of the same drive that served them as children. The same cognitive (认知的) systems that make young children feel good about figuring something out may have been adopted by adult scientists. As some psychologists put it, “It is not that children are little scientists but that scientists are big children.”63. According to some developmental psychologists, _________.A. a baby’s play is nothing more than a game.B. scientific r esearch into babies’ games is possibleC. the nature of babies’ play has been thoroughly investigatedD. a baby’s play is somehow similar to a scientist’s experiment64. We learn from Paragraph 2 that_______.A. scientists and babies seem to observe the world differentlyB. scientists and babies often interact with each otherC. babies are born with the knowledge of object supportD. babies seem to collect evidence just as scientists do65. Children may learn the rules of language by________.A. exploring the physical worldB. investigating human psychologyC. repeating their own experimentsD. observing their parents’ behaviors66. What is the main idea of the last paragraph?A. The world may be more clearly explained through chi ldren’s play.B. Studying babies’ play may lead to a better understanding of science.C. Children may have greater ability to figure out things than scientists.D. One’s drive for scientific research may become stronger as he grows.Section CDirections: Read the following passage and choose the most suitable sentences to fill in the blanks and complete the passage. There are two extra sentences you do not need.Who Writes the President's Speeches?The president of the United States must be an orator. The president gives an annual address on the State of the Union and speaks at the inauguration and other special events. ____67____ In his Gettysburg Address, Abraham Lincoln spoke fewer than 300 words, but those words have become immortal. Franklind. Roosevelt set the standard for later presidents in his 30 “fireside chats”, which aired on the radio and dealt with the Great Depression and World War II.Beginning with George Washington, American presidents often sought assistance with the content and wording of their speeches, although they may have done the writing themselves.____68____ The first President to assign the task of speechwriting to an aide, however, was Calvin Coolidge(1923-1929), the laconic president whose nickname was "Silent Cal”. The aides name was Judson Welliver. (Today, there is a bipartisan organization for former presidential speechwriters, the Judson Welliver Society.) Since the middle of the twentieth century, the role of such speechwriters has expanded; the Executive branch now includes an Office of Speechwriting as part of its Department of Communications, Speechwriting and Media Affairs.____69____ In his inaugural speech, John F. Kennedy urged Americans “Ask not what your country can do for you -- ask what you can do for your country”. George H. W. Bush, in his inaugural speech, imagined community volunteers and organizations as “a thousand points of light”. Both of these phrases originated with the gifted men and women who worked as the president's speechwriters.The process of drafting a presidential speech is long and complicated, and different presidents make different contributions. Some write large portions of the text and invite criticism from aides and advisers; others ask speechwriters to draft a speech in its entirety, and then they edit it to their own satisfaction. ____70____ The final product, whatever the process, must “sound” like the person who speaks the words.As one speech writer recently said, “Our concern was not to write a good speech, but to write a good speech that is also his speech”.IV. Summary WritingDirections:Read the following passage. Summarize the main idea and the main point(s) of the passage in no more than 60 words. Use your own words as far as possible.These days our society develops rapidly and forces people to rush. It appears that people have got used to being in a hurry. However, it’s better for people to take the ir time and live their life at a slower pace than to hurry to get things done.The main reason that convinces us to oppose doing work in a hurry is the possibility of doing wrongs in a rush. When people do their jobs or take action in a hurry, they can’t make a sound decision and probably regret later. As the saying goes, “Haste makes waste.” We should think carefully before making a decision and do our work less quickly. We should not make mistakes by doing work hurriedly.Slowing down the pace of life helps people enjoy their life better. For example, taking a train to some place certainly will take more time than taking a plane. However, taking a train makes people have enough time to get to know a lot of new friends. Besides, it allows people to fully enjoy the beautiful scenery along the way. On the contrary, being in a hurry will make us lose chances of enjoying our lives. Finally, slower life pace provides better health conditions for us. As is known to all, taking action in a hurry bothers people and raises their stress. People think if they are not in a hurry, they will become a loser and that annoys them. But being in a hurry can hurt people both physically and mentally. According to some studies, people who have a slower pace suffer fewer diseases, tend to be happier and live much longer than those whose life is tense, even if the former finish jobs more slowly than the latter.In short, working quickly will bring about more material benefits to make our society more advanced. Yet, much s tress can’t bring enjoyment, friends and health, which are much more important than money and other material advantages. Therefore, take your time and live your life at a slower pace.第 II 卷（共40分）I.

In the morning light, I could see the shadows that were etched(蚀刻）deep within the lines surrounding his eyes.Each morning I walked this route with my daughter to her kindergarten class. We were new to the neighborhood so that I didn’t know many of my neighbors. On one beautiful autumn morning, as we passed his house, my daughter called out to him, “Hi,Mr. Man!” Always knowing she was an outgoing child, I wasn’t surprised at her enthusiasm. But her cheerfulness soon faded when the man didn’t look at her and say “Hi” back.As we continued on our walk to school, my daughter asked why the man didn’t want to say hi to her. Because I didn’t have an answer, I said simply, “ Maybe he is having a bad day.” Later I knew that Bob lost his wife in a car accident.A few days later, as we approached Bob’s house on our way to school, my daughter called out “Hi, Man!” and as usual, he didn’t respond. But then she ran onto his front lawn and picked up a beautiful red autumn leaf. She continued up one step and handed it to him. I held my breath.As she skipped back to me, she said, “See you tomorrow, Mr. Man!” This time, he acknowledged her. In a soft and gentle voice, he thanked her and said, “See you tomorrow.”From then on, Bob and my daughter exchanged greetings each morning. Our friendship with Bob continued for many years. But the sweetest day is the day when Bob attended my daughter’s high school graduation. Bob gave my daughter a gift--- a book on identifying various plants and trees. There, tucked in the pages that described an oak tree, was the leaf my daughter had given to Mr. Man when they first met. He had dried and pressed it and kept it all those years.5.What puzzled the girl?A.The cause of the man’s sadness.B.The shadows in the man’s eyes.C.The man’s sitting still on the steps.D.The man’s not answering her greeting.6.How did the author feel when his daughter gave the red leaf to the man?A. ProudB. NervousC. EmbarrassedD. Comfortable7.Why did Bob keep that little red leaf?A. It was care from a girl.B. It was a symbol of enthusiasm.C. It was a reminder of his painful days.D. It represented the knowledge of trees.8.Which of the following can be the best title for the text?A.A Simple Red LeafB. A Strange NeighborC. An Unusual FriendD. A Greeting From a GirlCBelgium is divided into three communities. Each one has its own language and traditions. But the people of Belgium are united in their love for Belgian potato fries. The fries are prepared and sold the same way in all areas of the country.The Reuters news service reports that potatoes reached Belgium in the 16th century. But it was not until the 19th century that restaurants and others began selling fried potatoes throughout the country as a separate meal.Recently, a Belgian group launched a campaign aimed at getting the United Nations to recognize the popular treat. The group wants the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization to place the food on its cultural heritage(遗产) list.The UNESCO list recognizes more than 300 objects, beliefs, and practices. They include Turkish coffee and the traditional Chinese theater known as Peking Opera. The list also includes a dance, the Argentinian tango, and the singing of the Aka pygmies of the Central African Republic. UNESCO says the list is “made up of intangible heritage elements (非物质文化遗产元素）that help show the diversity of heritage and raise awareness about its importance”.Belgian potato fries are traditionally sold in a paper wrapper, or cone, in a “frikot”. There are about 5,000 fritkots in Belgium. That means they are 10 times more common than McDonald’s restaurants in the United States. The national organization of fritkot owners says the small, often unfurnished buildings are much like Belgium itself. It says these buildings combine the country’s acceptance of disorder with a dislike of structures that all look the same. The group says 95 percent of Belgians visit a fried potato hut at least once a year.9.Belgian potato fries ________.A.were recognized by UNESCOB.are well received in BelgiumC.are sold in all food stores.D.didn’t become a separate meal until the 16th century.10.What’s the aim of the Belgian group?A. To place Belgian potato fries on the cultural heritage list.B. To prevent other countries producing Belgian potato fries.C. To show the diversity of Belgian foods.D. To prove the popularity of Belgian foods.11.Which of the following is NOT listed in the UNESCO list?A. Peking Opera.B. The Argentinian tango.C. Turkish coffeeD. American restaurants.12.What does the underlined word “fritkot” in the last paragraph probably refer to?A. A simple house which is used to live inB. A kind of small, unfurnished building.C. A place where machines are used to make goods.D. A piece of paper, plastic, or thin metal that covers something.DRun out of cooking oil or need some dressing for your salad? The solution may be insects from your backyard! Scientists are turning insects into a source of healthy oil. Even though insects are a food source in some parts of the world, to many people, the thought of eating them is very disgusting.“In the western countries, there is no culture of eating entire insects, so when the idea is to use the protein in powder as an ingredient, people might tend to receive this better protein even if they can’t see it,”said researcher Daylan Tzompas-Sosa. “There are many uses for the oil in general, but we are investigating the use of these oils for a food, as a food ingredient.”The Mexican researcher, working in the Netherlands, said insects are a great source of heart-healthy omega-3 fatty acids, which can help treat anxiety disorder symptoms. Backing up the increased reliance on insects is the United Nations Foodand Agriculture Organization. In a 2013 report, the UN agency allowed the cultivation of bugs as a food source, saying it’s environmentally friendly and could boost the world’s food production.There are clear reasons that experts advise people to eat the insects. Experts say insects require little food to grow and the backyard can be a good place to raise them. And there’s no shortage of protein-rich insects, which contain fat, vitamins, fiber and minerals.Researchers say different bugs provide unique tastes and textures. “This is very liquid and it has a different color, so this can be used as a dressing and it’s easy to use and this can be used for pastry, because for pastry you need hard fats,”stated Tzompas-Sosa.But not all insects produce good oil. Cockroaches don’t. The bug oils must be tested to make sure they are safe to consume. But getting over the “ick factor”may be a bigger challenge.13.What is the author’s attitude towards the use of bug oils？A.DoubtfulB. ObjectiveC. SupportiveD. Unfavorable.14.Why do experts suggest eating the insects?A.They are rich in minerals.B.They have different colors.C.They taste good.D.They’re easy to raise.15.From the last paragraph, we can learn that __________.A.all insects cannot produce good oilB.the bug oils are the most deliciousC.it’s safe to consume the bug oilsD.the use of bug oils is banned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 used to be a well-known mazeC. It is the oldest palace in BritainD. It used to be the home of royal familiesBThe kids in this village wear dirty, ragged clothes. They sleep beside cows and sheep in huts made of sticks and mud. They have no school. Yet they all can chant the English alphabet, and some can make words.The key to their success : 20 tablet computers(平板电脑) dropped off in their Ethiopian village in February by a U.S. group called One Laptop Per Child.The goal is to find out whether kids using today’s new technology can teach th emselves to read in places where no schools or teachers exist. The Massachusetts Institute of Technology researchers analyzing the project data say they’re already amazed. “What Ithink has already happened is that the kids have already learned more than they would have in one year of kindergarten,〞 said Matt Keller, who runs the Ethiopia program.The fastest learner—and the first to turn on one of the tablets—is 8-year-old Kelbesa Negusse. The device’s camera was disabled to save memory, yet within weeks K elbesa had figured out its workings and made the camera work. He called himself a lion, a marker of accomplishment in Ethiopia.With his tablet, Kelbasa rearranged the letters HSROE into one of the many English animal names he knows. Then he spelled words on his own.“Seven months ago he didn’t know any English. That’s unbelievable,〞 said Keller.The project aims to get kids to a stage called “deep reading,〞 where they can read to learn. It won’t be in Amharic, Ethiopia’s first language, but in English, whic h is widely seen as the ticket to higher paying jobs.4.How does the Ethiopia program benefit the kids in the village?A. It trains teachers for them.B.It helps raise their living standardsC. It contributes to their self-study.D. It provides funds for building schools.5.What can we infer from Keller’s words in Paragraph 3?A.They need more time to analyze data.B.He is confident about the future of the project.C.More children are needed for the research.D.The research should be carried out in kindergartens.6.It amazed Keller that with the tablet Kelbesa could _______.A. learn English words quickly.B. draw pictures of animals.C. write letters to researchers.D. make phone calls to his friends.7.What is the aim of the project?A. To offer Ethiopians higher paying jobs.B. To make Amharic widely used in the world.C. To help Ethiopian kids read to learn in English.D. To assist Ethiopians in learning their first language.CIt was once common to regard Britain as a society with class distinction. Each class had unique characteristics.In recent years, many writers have begun to speak the“decline of class〞and “classless society〞in Britain. And in modern day consumer society everyone is considered to be middle class.But pronouncing the death of class is too early. A recent wide-ranging society of public opinion found 90 percent of people still placing themselves in particular class; 73 percent agreed that class was still a vital part of British society; and 52 percent thought there were still sharp class differences. Thus, class may not be culturally and politically obvious, yet it remains an important part of British society. Britain seems to have a love of stratification.One unchanging aspect of a British person’s class position is accent. The words a person speaks tell her or his class. A study of British accents during 1970s found that a voice sounding like a BBC newsreader was viewed as the most attractive voice, Most people said this accent sounded “educated〞and “soft〞. The accents placed at the bottom in this study, on the other hand, were regional〔地区的〕city accents. These accents were seen as “common〞and “ugly〞. However, a similar study of British accents in the US turned these results upside down and placed some regional accents as the most attractive and BBC English as the least. This suggests that British attitudes towards accent have deep roots and are based on class prejudice.In recent years, however, young upper middle-class people in London, have begun to adopt some regional accents, in order to hide their class origins. This is an indication of class becoming unnoticed. However, the 1995 pop song “Common People〞 puts forward the view thatthough a middle-class person may “want to live like common people〞 they can never appreciate the reality of a working-class life.8. A recent study of public opinion shows that in modern Britain ________.A. it is time to end class distinctionB. most people belong to middle classC. it is easy to recognize a person’s classD. people regard themselves socially different9. The word stratification in Paragraph 3 is closest in meaning to ________.A. divisionB. varietyC. authorityD. qualification10. The study in the US showed that BBC English was regarded as _________.A. regionalB. educatedC. unattractiveD. prejudiced11. What is the main idea of the passage?A. The middle class is expandingB. A person’s accent refle cts his classC. Class is a key part of British societyD. Each class has unique characteristics.DWould it surprise you to learn that, like animals, trees communicate with each other and pass on their wealth to the next generation?UBC Professor Simard explains how trees are much more complex than most of us ever imagined .Although Charles Darwin thought that trees are competing for survival of the fittest, Simard shows just how wrong he was. In fact, the opposite is true: trees survive through their co-operation and support, passing around necessary nutrition “depending on who needs it〞.Nitrogen〔氮〕and carbon are shared through miles of underground fungi〔真菌〕networks, making sure that all trees in the forest ecological system give and receive just the right amount to keep them all healthy. This hidden system works in a very similar way to the networks of neurons〔神经元〕in our brains, and when one tree is destroyed, it affectsall. Simard talks about “mother trees〞, usually the largest and oldest plants on which all other trees depend .She explains how dying trees pass on the wealth to the next generation, transporting important minerals to young trees so they may continue to grow .When humans cut down “mother trees〞with no awareness of these highly complex “tree societies〞or the networks on which they feed, we are reducing the chances of survival for the entire forest.“We didn't take any notice of it .〞Simard says sadly. “Dying trees move nutrition into the young trees before dying, but we never give them chance.〞If we could put across themessage to the forestry industry, we could make a huge difference towards our environmental protection efforts for the future.12.The underlined sentence “the opposite is true〞 in Paragragh2 probably means thattrees________.A. compete for survivalB. depend on each otherC. provide support for dying treesD. protect their own wealth13. “Mother trees〞 are extremely important because they________.A. look the largest in size in the forestB. know more about the complex “tree societies〞C. pass on nutrition to young treesD. seem more likely to be cut down by humans14. The underlined word “it〞in the last paragraph refers to .A. how “tree societies〞workB. how trees grow oldC. how forestry industry developsD. how young trees survive15. What would be the best title for the passage?A. Old Trees Communicate Like HumansB. Young Trees Are In Need Of ProtectionC. Trees Contribute To Our SocietyD. Trees Are More Awesome Than You Think第二节根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最优选项。
