Women often feel bad about being single, despite how satisfying their lives are otherwise. Turns out, there are a few reasons you might feel that romantic ennui(单身厌烦症):you may not be prioritizing what you really want. Allowing what other people want for you to cloud your judgment can send you down that dark, "I'm dying alone" spiral. Global surveys have found that cultural norms and expectations are what determine our self-esteem, even if we claim we're above the pressure. The truth is that marriage won't make everyone happier.And those fear-inducing headlines aren't helping." It's amazing how year after year after year, people are making this claim that if you get married, you'll get happier," author of Singled Out, De Paulo said. She explained that many of those academic studies that make for splashy,fear-inducing headlines aren't procedurally sound. The main problem is that conditions in clinical studies have to be randomly assigned -- which isn't possible when you're researching single vs. married people. Another "methodologically shameful" tactic in these studies, she explained, is that many only compare those who are currently married to single people and completely ignore those who got married, hated it and got divorced.Yes, you're still "great" and more than capable of living a happy, fulfilling life, whether or not you're involved with someone romantically. But also know that feeling waves of self-doubt and insecurity are totally normal. You may never want to get married-- or you may be open to the possibility of meeting someone without actively looking for a relationship.All of this awareness, however, won't always assuage all of your fears and insecurities, and that's OK. If you feel sad sometimes, it's not because you're single -- it's because you're alive.66.What determines our self-esteem?A. Cultural normsB. ExpectationsC. HappinessD. A and B67.Which is TRUE according the text?A. You may not be prioritizing what you really want.B. Academic studies. are procedurally sound.C. If you get married, you'll get happier.D. The greater you are, the happier you are.68.Why do we feel sad sometimes even if you know the reason why we are single?A. Because we are single.B. Because we are alive.C. Because we aren’t happy.D. Because we don’t want to marry.69.What can we infer from the text?A. You're so great and you must have a boyfriendB. If a woman has no partner, she still lead a happy lifeC. Only if you get married , you must be happier.D. Not everyone who is married is happy.70.What’s the purpose of the text?A. To tell us how to become a successful woman.B. To explain the reason why we are single.C. To tell us being single is happy.D. To tell us how to find a boyfriend..Part IV Writing (45 marks)Section A (10 marks)Directions: Read the following passage. Fill in the numbered blanks by using the information from the passage. Write NO MORE THAN THREE WORDS for each answer.“Drink your milk. It is good for you!”You’ve probably heard that many times, and it is true. Milk contains calcium(钙), which is a necessary nutrient(营养物质) for keeping bones and teeth strong. Drinking milk is a common practice in America for students. The U.S. government even requires milk as part of the National School Lunch Program, saying that students should drink one cup of fat-free or low-fat milk at each meal.On July 18th, 2012, however, a group of doctors asked the government to remove milk from the lunch program. The Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine (PCRM) says, “Milk is high in sugar, high in fat and high in animal protein(蛋白质),”all of which have negative effects on health. The PCRM says that there are better and healthier ways to get calcium such as eating beans, cereals(谷类) and tofu. Orange juice and soymilk that have calcium added to them also supply the nutrient. “The only reason people talk about milk, or promote it, is that it is going to help build strong bones,”says Dr. Neal Barnard, president of the PCRM. But milk may not be the best way to get the calcium your body needs.Of course, calcium is important for healthy bones and teeth, but there are other things that affect the strength of your bones, such as genes, how much vitamin D you take in and getting an hour’s worth of exercise every day.The U.S. government is studying the demand of the PCRM, but a decision may be a long way off.Meanwhile, Marion Nestle, a professor at New York University, said, “Milk certainly has nutrients. Other foods have the same nutrients. It is just a food. Like other foods, too much might be a problem.”Directions: Read the following passage. Answer the questions according to the information given in the passage.Keeping a food diary shows you what you are eating. And it is one of the most helpful ways to lose weight. Here are some steps to keep a food diary.The first of keeping a food diary is just getting started. To begin with, get yourself a simple notebook, and find a private (私人的) place for you to keep it.Start by just writing down everything that you eat or drink. You are just trying to get into the habit of writing everything down. The most important thing is never to leave anything out. For now, it’s OK if you just write “sweets” or “fries”, but just write it down.The hardest part will b e continuing to do this for more than a few days. Don’t give up. Just take a moment to write it down after you eat or drink. If you are out in public and don’t have your notebook, write it on a piece of paper and add it to your notebook later. Don’t leave anything at all out, but keep it very general for right now.The next step is to start being more specific(具体的). Gradually become more and more detailed with your entries (条目). Force yourself to be as specific as you can.Regularly look back at your entries. You will probably be shocked by what you are putting in your body.81. Why should you keep a food diary?

But in many cafes in Korea, you can do more than that. You can relax, and play with dogs at new dog cafes. The Snoopy Café is one of them. The dogs there are in cages around the room. First, you choose the dog. Then it comes out of its cage. You can buy food for it. The Ball House is different from the Snoopy Café. You don’t have to cho ose a dog at the Ball House. All the dogs sit, play, or run around while people drink coffee and eat sandwiches. You can play with all the dogs at the Ball House. Lori Chon goes to the Ball House about once a week. She likes to play with Princess, her favorite dog. She often buys food for Princess, too. Lori likes to go to the Snoopy Café for many reasons. “I love dogs” she says, “but my apartment is too small for a dog. Also, dogs don’t like to be alone, and I work all day”. So when Lori needs to have some fun with the pet, she goes to the dog café to see Princess. Dog cafes are very popular in Korea, but they are not cheap. A cup of coffee costs about three dollars and fifty cents, but the fun is free.Questions: 11. How is the Ball House different from the Snoopy Café?12. Why does Lori like going to the Snoopy Café?13. What is the passage mainly about?Questions 14 through 16 are based on the following news.We are hearing a lot these days about downshifting, so what is it? The term downshifting first appeared in 1994. It was coined by the Trans-research Institute to describe a new philosophy by which higher achievers at work chose a lower salary in exchange for a better quality of life. According to a recent study, 4 out of 10 people under 35 years old are planning to downshift from stressful jobs to a slower pace of life. It is not just the dream of the young, It is also popular with 35 to 54-year old, 12% of whom are making plans to downshift, 16% hoping to down so in next 2 years.The study found that, 7% of workers had already downshifted. Doctor Lucy Grand, a psychologist looking at the phenomenon, believes that the downshifting is a dream that more and more people want to turn into a reality. People are not satisfied with their lives, and they want to make changes. However Doctor Grand adds, that some people will hesitate, because they don’t actually believe they can make it happen, while others will rush into downshifting to discover that their dream ends up with the financial crisis. So it’s something that requires a lot of thought and planning to get right.Questions: 14. According to the passage, what is downshifting?15. According to a recent study, what is the percentage of workers who have alreadydownshifted?16. In Lucy Grand’s opinion, why do es downshifting require a lot of thought and planning?

Each word can only be used once. Note that there is one word more than you need.Considering how much time people spend in offices, it is important that work be well designed. Well-designed office spaces help create a cooperation‘s image. They motivate workers and they make an impression on people who visit and might be potential or, 41 , customer. They make businesses work better, and they are a part of the corporate culture we live in.As we move away from an industrial-based economy to a knowledge-based one, office designers have come up with 42 to the traditional work environments of the past. The design industry has moved away from a fixed office setup and created more flexible“strategic management environments.” These 43 solutions are to meant to support better organizational performances.As employee hierarchies(等级制度) have flattened or decreased, office designers’ response to this change has been to move open-plain areas to more desirable locations within the office, and create fewer formal private offices. The need for increased flexibility has also been 44 by changes in work station design. Offices and work spaces often are not 45 to a given person on a permanent basis because of changes to method of working, new designs allow for expansion or movement of desks, storage, and equipment within the workstation. Another important design goal is communication, which designers have improved by lowering the walls that 46 workstations. Designers have also created informal gathering places, and upgraded employees’ 47 to heavily trafficked areas such as copy and coffee rooms. Corporate and institutional office designers often struggle to resolve a number of competing and often 48 demands, including budgetary limits, employee hierarchies, and technological innovation(especially in relation to computerization). These demands must also be balanced with the need to create interiors(内饰) that in some way enhance, establish, or promote a company’s image and will enable employees to 49 at their best.All these 50 of office design are related. The most successful office designs are like a good marriage—the well-designed office and the employees that occupy it are seemingly made for each other.【答案】41~45: IBHDC 46~50: JAEGFIII. Reading ComprehensionSection ADirections: For each blank in the following passage 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.If you studied pictures that ancient people left on rock walls and you tried to determine their meaning, you would not detect interest in romance among the artists. _51_, you would see plenty of anima ls with people running after them. Life for ancient people’s earned to center on hunting and gathering wild foods for meals.In modern times, when food is available in grocery stores, finding love is more _52_ in people’s lives. The _53_ is all around us. It is easy to prepare a list of modern stories having to do with love. An endless number of books and movies qualify as love stories in popular culture.Researchers are studying whether love, a highly valued emotional state, can be _54_. They ask, what is love? Toothpaste companies want us to think attraction is all about clean teeth, but clean teeth go only so far. Scientists wonder how much the brain gets involved. You have probably heard that opposites attract but that _55_ attract, too. One thing is certain: The truth about love is not yet set in stone.First ImpressionTo help determine the _56_ of attraction, researchers paired 164 college classmates and had them talk for 3, 6 or 10 minutes so they could get a sense of each other’s individuality. Then students were asked to _57_ what kind of relationship they were likely to build with their partners. After nine weeks, they reported what happened.As it turned out, their _58_ judgments often held true. Students seemed to _59_ at an early stage who would best fit into their lives.The _60_ KnowsScientists have also turned to nonhumans to increase understanding of attraction. Many animals give off pheromones—natural chemicals that can be detected by, and then can produce a response in, other animals of the same species. Pheromones can signal that an animal is either ready to fight or is feeling _61_ to partnerships. In contrast, humans do not seem to be as _62_ as other animals at detecting such chemicals. Smell, however, does seem to play a part in human attraction. Although we may not be aware of chemicals like pheromones consciously, we give and receive loads of information through smell in every interaction with other people.Face ValueBeing fond of someone seems to have a number of factors, including seeing something we find attractive. Researchers had people judge faces for _63_ . The participants had 0.013 seconds to view each face, yet somehow they generally considered the images the same as people who had more time to study the same faces. The way we _64_ attractiveness seem to be somewhat automatic.When shown an attractive face and then words with good or bad associations, people responded to _65_ words faster after viewing an attractive face. Seeing something attractive seems to cause happy thinking.51. A. instead B. Therefore C. Moreover D. Otherwise52. A. romantic B. stressful C. central D. artificial53. A. priority B. proof C. possibility D. principle54. A. seated B. impressed C. changed D. created55. A. appearances B. virtues C. similarity D. passions56. A. illustrations B. imaginations C. ingredients D. instructions57. A. predict B. investigate C. diagnose D. recall58. A. critical B. initial C. random D. transfer59. A. memorize B. distinguish C. negotiate D. question60. A. Nose B. Eye C. Heart D. Hand61. A. open B. alert C. resistant D. superior62. A. disappointed B. amazed C. confused D. gifted63. A. emotion B. attractiveness C. individuality D. signals64. A. enhance B. possess C. maintain D. assess65. A. familiar B. plain C. positive D. irritating 【答案】51~55: ACBDC 56~60: CABBA 61~65: ADBDCSection BDirections:Read the following three passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. 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)Look to many of history’s cultural symbols, and there you’ll find an ancestor of Frosty, the snowman in the movie Frozen. It appeared on some of the first postcards, starred in some of the earliest silent movies, and was the subject of a couple of the earliest photos, dating all the way back to the 1800s. I discovered even more about one of humanity’s earliest forms of life art during several years of research around the world.For example, snowmen were a phenomenon in the Middle Ages, built with great skill and thought. At a time of limited means of expression, snow was like free art supplies dropped from the sky. It was a popular activity for couples to leisurely walk through town to view the temporary works of chilly art. Some were created by famous artists, including a 19-year-old Michelangelo, who in 1494 was appointed by the ruler of Florence, Italy, to build a snowman in his mansion’s courty ard.The Miracle of 1511 took place during six freezing works called the Winter of Death. The city of Brussels was covered in snowmen—an impressive scene that told stories on every street corner. Some were political in nature, criticizing the church and government.Some were a reflection of people’s imagination. For the people of Brussels, this was a defining moment of defining freedom. At least until spring arrived, by which time they were dealing with damaging floods.If you fear the heyday of the snowman has passed, don’t worry: I’ve learned that some explosive snowman history is still being made today. Every year since 1818, the people of Zurich, Switzerland, celebrate the beginning of spring by blowing up a snowman. On the third Monday of April, the holiday Sechselauten is kicked off when a cotton snowman called the Boogg is stuffed with explosive and paraded through town by bakers and other tradesmen who throw bread to the crowds. The parade ends with the Boogg being placed on a 40-foot pile of firewood. After the bells of the Church of St. Peter have rung six times, representing the passing of winter, the pile is lit. When the snowman explodes, winter is considered officially over—the quicker it is burnt down, the longer summer is said to be.66. According to the passage, why did snowmen become a phenomenon in the Middle Ages?A. People thought of snow as holy art supplies.B. People longed to see masterpieces of snow.C. Building snowmen was a way for people to express themselves.D. Building snowmen helped people develop their skill and thought.67. “The heyday of the snowman” (paragraph 4) means the time when ______.A. snowmen were made mainly by artistsB. snowmen enjoyed great popularityC. snowmen were politically criticizedD. snowmen caused damaging floods68. In Zurich, the blowing up of the Boogg symbolizes ______.A. the start of the paradeB. the coming of a longer summerC. the passing of the winterD. the success of tradesmen69. What can be concluded about snowmen from the passage?A. They were appreciated in history.B. They have lost their value.C. They were related to movies.D. They vary in shape and size.【答案】66~69: CBCA(B)70. In the film review, what is paragraph A mainly about?A. The introduction to the leading rolesB. The writer’s opinion of actingC. The writer’s comments on the storyD. The background information71. According to the film review, “monster” (paragraph B) refers to ______.A. a gun-crazy hunterB. a brainy dogC. a scary rabbitD. a giant vegetable72. Which of the following is a reason why the writer recommends the film?A. It’s full of wit and humour.B. Its characters show feelings without words.C. It is an adventure film directed by Peter Sallis.D. It is about the harmony between man and animals.【答案】70~72: DCA(C)One of the executives gathered at the Aspen Institute for a day-long leadership workshop using the works of Shakespeare was discussing the role of Brutus in the death of Julius Caesar. “Brutus was not an honorable man,” he said. “He was a traitor（叛徒）. And he murdered someone in cold blood.” The agreement was that Brutus had acted with cruelty when other options were available to him. He made a bad decision, they said—at least as it was presented by Shakespeare—to take the lead in murdering Julius Caesar. And though one of the executives acknowledged that Brutus had the good of the republic in mind, Caesar was nevertheless his superior. “You have to endeavor,” the executives said, “our policy is to ob ey the chain of command.”During the last few years, business executives and book writers looking for a new way to advise corporate America have been exploiting Shakespeare’s wisdom for profitable ends. None more so than husband and wife team Kenneth and Carol Adelman, well-known advisers to the White House, who started up a training company called “Movers and Shakespeares”. They are amateur Shakespeare scholars and Shakespeare lovers, and they have combined their passion and their high level contacts into a management training business. They conduct between 30 and 40 workshops annually, focusing on half a dozen different plays, mostly for corporations, but also for government agencies.The workshops all take the same form, focusing on a single play as a kind of case study, and using individual scenes as specific lessons. In Julius Caesar, for example, Caesar’s sly provocation（狡诈的挑唆）of Brutus to take up arms against the what was a basis for a discussion of methods of team building and grass roots organism.Although neither of the Adelmans is academically trained in literature, the programmes, contain plenty of Shakespeare tradition and background. Their workshop on Henry V, for example, includes a helpful explanation of Henry’s winning strategy at the Battle of Agincourt. But they do come to the text with a few biases (偏向): their reading of Henry V minimizes his misuse of power. Instead, they emphasize the story of the youth who seizes opportunity and becomes a masterful leader. And at the workshop on Caesar, Mr. Adelmans had little good to say about Brutus, saying “the noblest Roman of them all” couldn’t make his mind up about things.Many of the participants pointed to very specific elements in the play that they felt related Caesar’s pride, which led to his murder, and Brutus’s mistakes in leading the after the murder, they said, raise vital questions for anyone serving as a business when and how do you resist the boss?73. According to paragraph 1, what did all the executives think of Brutus?A. Cruel.B. Superior.C. Honorable.D. Bade74. According to the passage, the Adelmans set up “Movers and Shakespeares” to ______.A. help executives to understand Shakespeare’s plays betterB. give advice on leadership by analyzing Shakespeare’s playsC. provide case studies of Shakespeare’s plays in liter ature workshopsD. guide government agencies to follow the characters in Shakespeare’s plays.75. Why do the Adelmans conduct a workshop on Henry V?A. To highlight the importance of catching opportunities.B. To encourage masterful leaders to plan strategies to win.C. To illustrate the harm of prejudices in management.D. To warn executives against power misuse.76. It can be inferred from the passage that ______.A. the Adelmans’ programme proves biased as the roles of characters are maximized。

Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.As a famous saying goes, "Reading makes a full man, conference a ready man, and writing an exact man." I like reading very much. When I 36 a good essay in reading newspapers or magazines, I often feel like cutting and keepingit. However, just as I am about to do so, I find the article on the 37 side is as much interesting. It may be a discussion of the way to keep in good health, or advice about how to be oneself in society. If I cut the front essay, the opposite one will 38 damage, leaving out half of it or keeping the next without the title. As a result, the scissors would stay before they start, or halfway done when I find out the result to my 39 .Sometimes two things are to be done at the same time, both worthy your attention. You can only take up one of them, the other has to wait or be 40 . But you know the future is 41 —the changed situation may not allow you to do what is left behind. Thus you are caught in a dilemma and feel sad. why should nice opportunities and 42 ideas gather around all at once? It may happen that your life changes dramatically on your preference of one choice to the other.In fact that is what life is like: we are often given with the two choices which are both 43 like newspaper cutting. It often occurs that our attention is drawn to one thing only after we take up another. The former may be more important than the latter and 44 a divided mind. I still remember a philosopher's remarks: "When one door shuts, another opens." So a 45 choice may not be a bad one.Whatever we do in our lifetime, and whenever life's storm makes us go, there must be something we can 46 , some shore we can land on. Don't forget there is always a(n) 47 door for everyone. While the front door is closed, there must be another open for you.36. A. e aboutB. e outC. e acrossD. e up37.

He always wrote the number "two" and "four" 48 the blackboard in the first class to his new students. After that, he would ask his students 49 the answer was.Every time he raised this question, some of his students said "six" was the key 50 others hold that "two" was more proper and some of them chose "eight"as 51 answer; moreover, there were still some students 52 were just sitting at their seats without a word.53 the students were discussing the issue, the teacher always sighed and said to the students, " 54 is no use debating because all of you did not notice the key point: what is exactly the question? Are those two numbers to be added, subtracted or be acquired to do some other calculations? Without what the question is, how can you get a 55 answer?"Part ⅢReading prehension (30 marks)Directions: Read the following three passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. 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.AWalk into the California home of Anne Belles and her husband, Jim Silcock, and you'll see kids everywhere playing video games, doing homework, and getting ready for dinner. There are 30 boys in this house and Anne Belles is their mom. Belles has wanted to help children since she was a kid. "I was intrigued by the movie Oliver! in the 1960s, a musical based on the Charles Dickens novel Oliver Twist. I told my mom, 'That's what I want to do.' "Anne's boys are from 3 to 25 years old. All of them are challenged in some way. "They each have special needs —physically, mentally, or at school," says Belles.Every day, a small army of childcare workers, nurses, and volunteers es in to help cook and clean, wash 30 loads of laundry a day, and take care of health needs.To find out how much such a large family costs, we followed Jim Silcock to the grocery store. He spent $880 on food for one week. Every month they spend $2,000 to run five cars, $15,000 for the fourteen paid helpers, and more than $10,000 on medical costs. The family receives $26,000 a month from the state government, and makes some money from a family business. All the money is spent on the children; having new clothes and fancy cars isn't important to Belles.How do the kids feel? 17-year-old Anthony says, "The family is there whenever I need something ... I feel like I am loved.""Everything I'm doing now is what I wanted to happen in my life," says Anne Belles. "So, no regrets; this is perfect. I couldn't ask for it to be better—maybe a bigger house, you know, would be nice."56. The underlined word "intrigued" in the first paragraph means "______".A. fooledB. attractedC.frightenedD. disappointed57. The boys Anne has raised ______.A. are all ready to accept a challengeB. all like Oliver TwistC. all have disabilitiesD. are all teenagers58. For Anne and her husband, raising 30 b oys ______.A. is their dreamB. is no small taskC. is a piece of cakeD. is their family tradition59. What do 17-year-old Anthony's words mean?A. He is satisfied with his family.B. He has learned how to love others.C. He wants to get more care and love.D. He is still looking for his own family.60. What do we know about Anne and her husband?A. They are kind-hearted and selfless.B. They are tired of looking after so many boys.C. They want to improve their own living condition.D. They've always regretted not having their own baby.B4 Best Seattle Day TripsThe Boeing Everett Factory is only a short 40-minute drive outside of Seattle in Everett, Washington. It is the largest building in the world since it needs lots of room to make some of the biggest planes in the world. The tour lasts 90 minutes and there is no stopping and no restrooms. Even cellphones are prohibited during the tour, so make sure to leave everything in the car or bring change for lockers. Unlike other factory tours which are free and give you stuff, the Boeing tour costs about $20 and you don't get anything.The Enchanted Forest is a small family-owned theme park a little over 3 hoursfrom Seattle in Oregon. The park is a mix of a simple fairy tale town and a small family theme park. The destination is seasonal and not open in winter. The best rides are the Haunted House and the Adventures of Mordor. The other thing you can't miss is the water show that is inside a cave and shows every half an hour. Even if you have no kids but are a kid at heart, you will enjoy yourself in the Enchanted Forest.The Washington State Capitol is located a little over an hour away from Seattle in Olympia. It is open from Monday to Friday, any day that is not a state holiday. It is a good place to bring a lunch and have a piic in front of the Capitol and is a great place to take kids to learn about the government.Riverfront Park is about four hours away in Spokane. The park is like an old theme park that every city used to have, but it is much newer. Riverfront Park features an ice skating rink (滑冰场) in winter. It is also a good place to go for a piic along the river. But I prefer the Enchanted Forest to Riverfront Park.A. can easily access restroomsB. cannot take any personal belongingsC. can go inside the biggest planes in the world.D. can stay there as long as you like during the day.62. What does the writer mean by saying the Enchanted Forest is seasonal?A. It is not open to the public every season.B. It charges differently in different seasons.C. It has different scenes in different seasons.D. It has different activities in different seasons.63. The Washington State Capitol is open to the public ______.A. every day except at the weekend.B. every other day except on state holidays.C. every workday except on state holidays.D. every day except on national holidays.64. Where would you most probably go if you want a piic along the river?A. The Boeing Everett Factory.B. The Enchanted Forest.C. The Washington State Capitol.D. Riverfront Park.65. The passage is written to ______.A. prove that Seattle has many famous attractionsB. explain why Seattle is worth a visit for a familyC. introduce four good places in Seattle for a day tripD. introduce four places for a family to spend time togetherCWhat if you never needed to eat again? Imagine that all you needed was a special formula (配方) that would provide your body with all the nutrients (营养) it needed to survive. Well, puter programmer Rob Rhinehart has created just such a thing called Soylent —and it's now shipping to adventurous eaters.Rhinehart invented Soylent after being frustrated with the high price of foods and the time he spent making meals. He has shown the Soylent development process on his blog. "I guess that the body doesn't need food itself, only the chemicals it has. What if I ate only the ingredients the body uses for energy?" he wrote in a blog post titled "How I Stopped Eating Food."Forty different chemicals make up his formula, which is made up of packaged powder and a bottle of oil. Soylent drinkers mix these two parts with water. After experimenting with the formula, Rhinehart and his roommates made a plan to sell it. They raised $3,500,000 to start a pany and put Soylent into production. Now the pany sells bags of the formula on its website.At its lowest price, Soylent costs about $3 a meal. This is much cheaperthan some solid foods. Soylent also does not spoil (变质) as quickly as many fresh foods. For these reasons, Rhinehart thinks Soylent could someday bee a solution to world hunger.The young inventor has been living off of Soylent for more than a year. But he does still eat some solid foods. Such as when he goes to restaurants with friends.However, before you follow Rhinehart's lead and forsake solid foods pletely, you should talk to your doctor. Many medical professionals don't think people should replace all of their meals with a powdered formula. They argue that human beings need a well-balanced diet to be healthy. Solid foods may have important nutritional benefits that cannot be got from formulas like Soylent.66. The original purpose of Rhinehart creating Soylent was to ______.A. save time and money on foodsB. solve the problem of world hungerC. provide his body with more nutrientsD. realize his dream of running a pany67. We can infer from the passage that Soylent ______.A. can be bought in the supermarket nowB. may cure patients of some ordinary diseasesC. can be preserved for a longer time than some fresh foodsD. has been delivered to poor countries to solve hunger problem68. The underlined word "forsake" in the last paragragh can be replaced by ______.A. turn toB. give upC. try outD. prepare for69. Many medical professionals' attitude towards the use of Soylent is ______.A. hopefulB. favorableC. worriedD. surprised70. In which part of a newspaper can you probably find this text?A. Business.B. Education.C. Food & Health.D.Popular science.Part ⅣWriting (45 marks)Section A (10 marks)Directions: Read the following passage. Fill in the numbered blanks by using the information from the passage.As a teenager, do you want to grow taller naturally? If yes, firstly, you must have a good sleep at night. So go to bed early and try to get at least 7~8 hours of sleep each night. Research has proved that sleeping early is good for health. Even if you get 8 hours of sleep, it won't be beneficial if you have the habit of going to bed late at night. Thus, try to sleep before 10 p.m. each night and you'll sleep much better.Secondly, you need to be physically active. Unluckily, many teenagers these days spend hours sitting in front of puters, failing to take part in enough physical activities. Studies have shown that teenagers who often run, cycle or swim tend to grow taller than those who are inactive. What's more, regular stretching exercises, especially early in the morning, and regular breathingexercises can also prove helpful in encouraging height growth.Thirdly, healthy eating is also a must. So, don't eat unhealthy junk food because it can cause health problems and slow down the proper growth of the body. Instead, form a habit of eating lots of fruits and vegetables as well as eating a lot of nuts, fish, and milk.Lastly, you must keep a proper posture while standing, sitting, walking or doing any work. If you have a poor posture, a part of your back appears too much curved in one direction, which is bad for your growth. Luckily, there are many exercises to correct the posture. If you do them in a regular way, the posture can be easily corrected. You have to be careful throughout the day that you aren't going back to your old ways of standing or sitting.Title: 71. __________ for teenagers to grow taller naturallySection B (10 marks)Directions: Read the following passage and answer the questions according to the information given in the passage.In many businesses, puters have largely replaced paperwork, because they are fast, flexible, and do not make mistakes. As one banker said, "Unlike humans, puters never have a bad day." And they are honest. Many banks advertise that their transactions are "Untouched by human hands" and therefore safe from human temptation. Obviously, puters have no reason to steal money. But they also have no conscience, and the growing number of puter crimes shows they can be used to steal.puter criminals don't use guns. And even if they are caught, it is hard to punish them because there are no witness and often no evidence. A puter cannot remember who used it: it simply does what it is told. The head teller at a New York bank used a puter to steal more than one and a half billion dollars in just four years. No one noticed this theft because he moved the money fromone account to another. Each time a customer he had robbed questioned the balance in his account, the teller claimed a puter error, then replaced the missing money from someone else's account. This man was caught only because he was a gambler. When the police broke up an illegal gambling operation, his name was in the records.Some employees use the puter's power to get revenge on their employers they co nsider unfair. Recently, a large insurance pany fired its puter-tape librarian for reasons that involved her personal rather than her professional life. She was given thirty days notice. In those thirty days, she erased all the firm's puterized records.Most puter criminals have been minor employees. Now police wonder if this is "the tip of the iceberg". As one official says, "I have the feeling that there is more crime out there than we are catching. What we are seeing now is all so poorly done. I wonder what the real experts are doing —the ones who know how a puter works."81. Why are transactions in many banks claimed to be safe? (No more than 7 words)_________________________________________________________________________82. How did the head teller at the New York bank covered up his crime? (No more than 8 words)_________________________________________________________________________83. According to the last paragraph, what kind of criminals are the police unable to catch?(No more than 2 words)_________________________________________________________________________84. What is the passage mainly about?

Here are some letters from our readers.■Yes, many cyclists behave dangerously. Many drivers are disrespectful of cyclists. But pedestrians are probably the worse offenders.People of all ages happily walk along the pavement with eyes and hands glued to the mobile phone, quite unaware of what is going on around them. They may even do the same thing while crossing a road at a pedestrian crossing or elsewhere. The rest of us have to evade (避让) them or just stand still to wait for the unavoidable collision. The real problem is that some pedestrians seem to be, at least for the moment, in worlds of their own that are, to them, much more important than the welfare of others. ——Michael Horan■I love the letter from Bob Brooks about cyclists (Viewpoints, May 29). I am afraid they seem to think they own the roads.I was walking across Altrincham Road one morning when a cyclist went round me and on being asked what he was doing he shouted at me.The government built a cycle lane on the road but it is hardly used.The police do nothing. What a laugh they are!The cyclists should all have to be made to use the cycle lanes and wear helmets, fluorescent (发荧光的) jacket and lights at night and in the morning they should pay some sort of tax and be fined for not wearing them.——Carol Harvey■Cyclists jump on and off pavements (which are meant for pedestrians), ride at speed along the pavements, and think they have a special right to go through traffic lights when they are on red.I was almost knocked down recently by a cyclist riding on the pavement when there was a cycle lane right next to him.Other road users, including horse riders, manage to obey the rules so why not cyclists?It's about time they had to be registered and insured, so when they do hit a pedestrian or a vehicle, or cause an accident, at least they can be treated and there might be an opportunity to claim.——JMLWrite to Viewpoints of the newspaper.56. Michael Horan wrote the letter mainly to show that _______.A. drivers should be polite to cyclistsB. road accidents can actually be avoidedC. sine pedestrians are a threat to road safetyD. walking while using phones hurts one's eyes57. Carol Harvey suggests that cyclists should _______.A. be provided with enough roadsB. be asked to ride on their own lanesC. be made to pay less tax for cyclingD. be fined for laughing at policemen58. What is a complaint of JML?A. Very few drivers are insured.B. Cyclists ride fast on pavements.C. Pedestrians go through red traffic lights.D. Horse riders disrespect other road users.59. The underlined word "they" in the third letter refers to ______.A. accidentsB. vehiclesC. pedestriansD. cyclists60. The three letters present viewpoints on _______.A. real source of road dangerB. ways to improve road facilitiesC. measures to punish road offencesD. increased awareness of road rulesBIn its early history, Chicago had floods frequently, especially in the spring, making the streets so muddy that people, horses, and carts got stuck. An old joke that was popular at the time went something like this: A man is stuck up to his waist in a muddy Chicago street. Asked if he needs help, he replies, "No, thanks. I've got a good horse under me."The city planner decided to build an underground drainage (排水) system, but there simply wasn't enough difference between the height of the ground level and the water level. The only two options were to lower the Chicago River or raise the city.An engineer named Ellis Chesbrough convinced me the city that it had no choice but to build the pipes above ground and then cover them with dirt. This raised the level of the city's streets by as much as 12 feet.This of course created a new problem: dirt practically buried the first floors of every building in Chicago. Building owners were faced with a choice: either change the first floors of their buildings into basements, and the second stories into main floors, or hoist the entire buildings to meet the new street level. Small wood-frame buildings could be lifted fairly easily. But what about large, heavy structures like Tremont Hotel, which was a six-story brick building?That's where George Pullman came in. He had developed some house-moving skills successfully. To lift a big structure like the Tremont Hotel, Pullman would place thousands of jackscrews (螺旋千斤顶) beneath the building's foundation. One man was assigned to operate each section of roughly 10 jackscrews. At Pullman's signal each man turned his jackscrew the same amount at the same time, thereby raising the building slowly and evenly. Astonishingly, the Tremont Hotel stay open during the entire operation, and many of its guests didn't even notice anything was happening. Some people like to say that every problem has a solution. But in Chicago's early history, every engineering solution seemed to create a new problem. Now that Chicago's waste water was draining efficiently into the Chicago River, the city's next step was to clean the polluted river.61. The author mentions the joke to show ______.A. horses were fairly useful in ChicagoB. Chicago's streets were extremely muddyC. Chicago was very dangerous in the springD. the Chicago people were particularly humorous62. The city planners were convinced by Ellis Chesbrough to_______.A. get rid of the street dirtB. lower the Chicago RiverC. fight against heavy floodsD. build the pipes above ground63. The underlined word "hoist" in Paragraph 4 means "_______".A. changeB. liftC. repairD. decorate64. What can we conclude about the moving operation of the Tremont Hotel?A. It went on smoothly as intended.B. It interrupted the business of the hotel.C. It involved Pullman turning ten jackscrews.D. It separated the building from its foundation.65. The passage is mainly about the early Chicago's ______.A. popular life styles and their influencesB. environmental disasters and their causesC. engineering problems and their solutionsD. successful businessmen and their achievementsCHave your parents ever inspected your room to see if you cleaned it properly? Imagine having your entire houses, garage, and yard inspected at any time -- with no warning. Inspections were a regular part of lighthouse (灯塔) living, and a keeper's reputation depended on results. A few times each year, an inspector arrived to look over the entire light station. The inspections were supposed to be a surprise, but keeper sometimes had advance notice.Once lighthouses had telephones, keepers would call each other to warn that the inspector was approaching. After boats began flying special flags noting the inspector aboard, the keeper's family made it a game to see who could notice the boat first. As soon as someone spotted the boat, everyone would do last-minute tidying and change into fancy clothes. The keeper then scurried to put on his dress uniform and cap. Children of keepers remember inspectors wearing white gloves to run their fingers over door frames and windowsills looking for dust.Despite the serious nature of inspections, they resulted in some funny moments. Betty Byrnes remembered when her mother did not have time to wash all the dishes before an inspection. At the time, people did not have dishwashers in their homes. In an effort to clean up quickly, Mrs. Byrnes tossed all the dishes into a big bread pan, covered them with a cloth and stuck them in the oven. If the inspector opened the oven door, it would look like bread was baking. he never did.One day, Glenn Furst's mother put oil on the kitchen floor just before the inspectorentered their house. Like floor wax, the oil made the floors shiny and helped protect the wood. This time, though, she used a little too much oil. When the inspector extended his hand to greet Glenn's mother, he slipped on the freshly oiled surface. "He came across that floor waving his arms like a young bird attempting its first flight," Glenn late wrote. After he steadied himself, he shook Glenn's mother's hand, and the inspection continued as though nothing had happened.66. What does Paragraph I tell us about the inspection at the light station?A. It was carried out once a year.B. It was often announced in advance.C. It was important for the keeper's fame.D. It was focused on the garage and yard.67. The family began making preparations immediately after ______.A. one of the members saw the boatB. a warning call reached the lighthouseC. the keeper put on the dress uniform and capD. the inspector flew special flags in the distance68. Mrs. Byrnes put the dishes in the oven because this would ______.A. result in some funB. speed up washing themC. make her home look tidyD. be a demand from the inspector69. If the inspector had opened the oven door, he would have seen _______.A. an empty panB. many clean dishesC. pieces of baked breadD. a cloth covering something70. The inspector waved his arms ______.A. to try his best to keep steadyB. to show his satisfaction with the floorC. to extend a warm greeting to Glenn's motherD. to express his intention to continue the inspectionPart IV WritingSection ADirections: Read the following passage. Fill in the numbered blanks by using the information from the passageWrite NO MORE THAN THREE WORDS for each answer.Not all print dictionaries are the same, as you will notice when you select one. To make a wise selection, you should know how to distinguish among three kinds of print dictionaries: pocket, desk, and unabridged. You should also know the copyright date of your dictionary, and check is special features.A pocket dictionary is small. Generally, it contains no more than 75000 entries, making it hardly to carry to class and efficient to use. However, a pocket dictionarydoesn't contain enough entries to be adequate for college reference homework. In addition, the information about each word in a pocket dictionary is generally limited.A desk dictionary is medium sized, generally containing over 100,000 entries as well as extra features. For college work, you should own a current desk dictionary. An unabridged dictionary is a complete dictionary. Abridged dictionaries, such as pocket and desk dictionaries, are shortened. Because unabridged dictionaries contain nearly all English words, they are large and heavy. They are often used by schools and libraries.If the copyright date of your current dictionary shows that it was published five or more years ago, consider investing in a more recent edition. English is a dynamic language that admits new words and recognizes changes in meaning, spelling, and usage of familiar words. This is reflected in an up-to-date dictionary.In selecting a dictionary, check the features it offers besides vocabulary definitions. Many editions contain signs, symbols and foreign words. Some also contain CD-ROMs and access to special online features.Section BDirections: Read the following passage. Answer the questions according to the information given in the passage.Walk Out of the Comfort Zone and Try New ThingsFor most high school students, free periods are useless. From what I have seen, few do homework, instead many are on their phones and talking, making it impossible for those who actually want to do work to complete any. As a senior next year, I think extra periods should be used to take optional subjects.Our school offers many classes. Now is the time to experiment in different fields of study. We will never know if we are interested or talented in a subject if we don't try it.In my 8th grade, I was told that I had to take an art class as a graduation requirement; so in the 9th grade I took Studio and Art. One of the projects was to build a clay pot, but I built mine incorrectly, so it broke in the kiln (窑). I found out that I have no artistic ability at all, and now I know for sure that I do not want to be an artist. However, the class was one of my favorites that year. I was able to try new activities and test my ability.Walk out of our comfort zone and try new things! College is when we should focus on a specific major, but high school is when we have to figure it out.Half of all college students change their major at some point. By doing that hundreds of dollars are wasted on classes that they would have never needed to take. So use our extra periods to find out what we want to do in college. The classes we choose can impact us in future. Taking optional subjects will enrich our mind. It will also show colleges we are diverse students.81.

2015年高考真题——英语(新课标2卷) Word版+含解析

2015年普通高等学校招生全国统一考试英语试题（新课标2卷，含解析）第Ⅰ卷第一部分听力（共两节，满分30分）略第二部分阅读理解（共两节，满分40分）AMy color television has given me nothing but a headache. I was able to buy it a little over a year ago because I had my relatives give me money for my birthday instead of clothes that wouldn’t fit. I let a salesclerk fool me into buying a discontinued model. I realized this a day later, when I saw newspaper advertisements for the set at seventy-five dollars less than I had paid. The set worked so beautiful when I first got it home that I would keep it on until stations signed off for the night. Fortunately, I didn’t get any channels showing all-night movies or I would never have gotten to bed.Then I started developing a problem with the set that involved static(静电) noise. For some reason, when certain shows switched into a commercial, a loud noise would sound for a few seconds. Gradually, this noise began to appear during a show, and to get rid of it, I had to change to another channel and then change it back. Sometimes this technique would not work, and I had to pick up the set and shake it to remove the sound. I actually began to build up my arm muscles(肌肉) shaking my set.When neither of these methods removed the static noise, I would sit helplessly and wait for the noise to go away. At last I ended up hitting the set with my first, and it stopped working altogether. My trip to the repair shop cost me $62, and the sit is working well now, but I keep expecting more trouble.21. Why did the author say he was fooled into buying the TV set?A.He got an older model than he had expected.B.He couldn’t return it when it was broken.C.He could have bought it at a lower price.D.He failed to find any movie shows on it.22. Which of the following an best replace the phrase “signed off” in paragraph 1?A.ended all their programsB.provided fewer channelsC.changed to commercialsD.showed all-night movies23. How did the author finally get this TV set working again?A.By shaking and hitting itB.By turning it on and offC.By switching channelsD.By having it repaired24. How does the author sound when telling the story?A.CuriousB.AnxiousC.CautiousD.Humorous【答案】21. C 22. A 23. D 24. D21. C 细节理解题。
