So many elderly people have no one to care for them, and no one to love them. When I say this, I am talking about pure love, unconditional love that shows kindness no matter what the situations may be.The elderly have smoothed the pathway of success for our generation. They should be shown appreciation（感激）and kindness, but are often forgotten. I am are all of you have someone in your hearts who has been at a nursing home. Think of them while I say this; they should get the best, nothing but the best. The elderly are such an unusual group of people, and their shining wisdom can most certainly be learned from. This idea of showing appreciation to the elderly reverberated（回响）inside my head, until finally, I decided it was time to step up and make a difference.My love for and ability in writing led me to create an organization, wherepeople from all across the world send nameless letters filled with kindness and joy, from Iceland, Romania, Finland, Australia, and more. I then send these letters to senior centers, and nursing homes located all across the country. To this date, I have collected over 1, 000 letters, and the reaction I have received from these organizations has been truly unbelievable.This past month, I had the opportunity to receive $100 from KindSpring through their monthly kindness competition to help my organization. This money has been of great help. We do not receive much money, and so it helped to pay for many costs, including postage and envelopes. This act of kindness has been very helpful to my organization, and I could not be more appreciative. If any of you would like to get involved in my organization, please visit lovefortheelderly. org.24. Why did the author set up his organizationA. To help the elderly with their daily life.B. To organize activities for the elderly.C. To offer true love to the elderly.D. To raise money for the elderly.25. Which of the following agrees with the author's opinion about the elderlyA. They are being treated well.B. They should end up in senior centers.C. They are wiser than the young.D. They don't get enough attention.26. What helped the author create his organizationA. The letters received worldwide.B. His writing ability.C. His family's encouragement.D. The support from senior centers.27. What can be learned from the last paragraphA. The author doesn't have much money.B. The elderly were very thankful to the author.C. The author turned to KindSpring for help.D. The organization can't be larger.CAs you probably know, learning a foreign language is sometimes challenging. But it can also be fun We spend hundreds of hours at school trying to get our tongues round different vocabulary and grammar in order to earn a qualification. But learning to speak a second language is more than just passing an exam—it opens doors to new opportunities, helps you to communicate with others and makes travelling overseas more satisfactory.It might come as a surprise that the number of teenagers learning foreign languages in UK secondary schools has dropped by 45% since the turn of the millennium. German and French have fallen the most-these languages from two of the UK's closest trading partners have declined at GCSE level. Another survey of secondary schools suggests a third of students have dropped at least one language from their GCSE exam options. There are some reasons for this, including many students'opinion that languages are difficult. Others have questioned the need for a second language when translation technology is advancing.Matthew Fell, chief UK policy director for business group the CBI, believes that “The decline in language learning in schools must be reversed, or else the UK will be less competitive globally and young people less prepared for the modern world.” But even for those who are eager to study another language the opportunity is being reduced. In Scotland, for example, foreign language subjects are being pressed out of many secondary school timetables with some head teachers blaming pressure on the curriculum.However, some native English speakers have admitted the benefits of speaking another tongue Cassandra Scott, from Edinburgh, studied three languages in her final year at school. She is now a freelance translator in Edinburgh, and says “Learning languages at school really set the course for my career.”28. How does the author show the fact that fewer people have learned foreign languagesA. By offering background information.B. By giving specific examples.C. By analyzing underlying reasons.D. By showing personal research.29 What does the underlined word “reversed” in paragraph 3 meanA. Developed rapidly.B. Pushed quickly.C. Changed completely.D. Maintained properly.30. What can we learn from the passageA. A fulfilling overseas travel requires another foreign language.B. Learning languages at school may contribute to one's future career.C. Native English speakers benefit more from speaking another tongue.D. With the translation technology, there's no need to learn foreign languages.31. What's the purpose of the passageA. To criticize people's ignorance of foreign languages.B. To stress the significance of learning foreign languages.C. To state the result of dropping learning foreign languages.D. To raise people's awareness of protecting native languages.DMuch of our thinking about health is based on wishful thinking. But science provides clear and simple advice for a healthy life. Graham Lawton explores the evidence. Graham proves that you don't have to be a health and fitness extremist to be reasonably healthy. He has rounded up the latest and strictest health research and changed it into useful advice on all the big health questions: diet, weight loss, exercise, sleep, ageing and so on.Graham, New Scientist feature writer, is not the common health expert. He sometimes eats fast food. He has a gym membership but rarely uses it. And he takes medicine to keep his blood pressure under control. Heneither has a diet plan nor a 6-week program to keep fit and thin.But he does have a much better weapon: science. In a talk, Graham explains the basic science, tells people some of the secrets of science, teaches people to use the ability of judgement to tell the good from the bad, and helps them to see beyond the headlines. The talk allows people to eat healthily, lose weight, and sort the truth out from science facts. But he loves outdoor sports. Last year Graham cycled over 1, 200 miles and ran the same distance of 15 marathons. He often goes swimming outdoors, walks up eight flights of stairs to his desk instead of taking the lift. He eats his five copies of fruit and vegetables a day, keeps enough water in his body, and doesn't eat much meat. Despite all the bad habits, his good ones seem to be winning. Graham is 50, but his “biological age” was recently measured as 45.32. What can we learn about GrahamA. He has some bad habits.B. He has an extremely strict diet.C. He looks down on common health experts.D. He always bases health on wishful thinking33 What does Graham's talk in paragraph 3 coverA. Words as weapons.B. Health and science.C. Functions of medicine.D. Ability and confidence.34 What does the last paragraph mainly tell us concerning GrahamA. His indoor sports of his life.B. His copies of health books.C. His healthy lifestyle.D. His way of thinking.35. Which is the most suitable title for the textA. The Professional Ways to Do SportsB. The Importance of Exercise for HealthC. The Unique Path to Scientific SuccessD. The Secrets of Living a Healthy Life第二节七选五（共5小题；每小题2. 5分，满分12. 5分）阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余选项。

I also love ray laptop computer,as it holds all of my writing and thoughts. Although I love the technology.I know that there are times when I need to move away from these devices(设备) and truly communicate with others.On one occasion, I teach a course called History Matters for a groupof higher education managers. My goals for the class include a full discussion of historical themes and ideas. Because I want students to thoroughly study the material and exchange their ideas with each otherin the classroom, I have a rule —no laptops. IPads, phones, etc. When students were told my rule in advance of the class, some of them were not happy.Most students think that my reasons for (his rule include unpleasant experiences in the past with students misusing technology. There’s a bit of truth to that. Some students think that I am anti-technology There’s no truth in that at all. I love technology and try to keep up with it so I can relate to my students.The real reason why I ask students to leave technology at the door is that I think there are few places in which we can have deep conversations and engage complex ideas. Interruptions by technology often break concentration and allow for too much dependence on outside information for idea. I want students to dig deep within themselves for inspiration and ideas. I want them to push each other to think differently and make connections between the course material and the class discussion.I’ve been teaching my history class in this way for many years and the evaluations reflect student satisfaction with the environment that I create. Students realize that with deep conversation and challenge, they learn at a level at that helps them keep the course material beyond the classroom.I’m not saying that I won’t ever change my mind about technology use in my history class, but until I hear a really good reason for the change. I’m sticking to my plan A few hours of technology-free dialogue is just too sweet to give up.45. Some of the students in the history class were unhappywith .A. the course materialB. the author’s class rulesC. discussion topicsD. others’ misuse of technology46. What does the author think of the use of technology in the classroom?A. It keeps students from doing independent thinking.B. It encourages students to have deep conversations.C. It helps students to better understand difficult themes.D. It affects students’ concentration on the teacher’s ideas.47. It can be inferred from the Iasi paragraph that theauthor .A. will give up teaching historyB. is quite stubborn in teachingC. will change his teaching plan soonD. values technology-free dialogues in his class（三）If Confucius（孔子）were still alive today and could celebrate his September 28 birthday with a big cake, there would be a lot of candles. He’d need a fan or a strong wind to help him put them out.While many people in China will remember Confucius on his special day, few people in the United States will give him a passing thought. It’s nothing personal. Most Americans don’t even remember the birthdays of their own national heroes.But this doesn’t mean that Americans don’t care about Confucius. In many ways he has become a bridge that foreigners must cross if they want to reach a deeper understanding of China.In the past two decades, the Chinese studies programs have gained huge popularity in Western universities. More recently, the Chinese government has set up Confucius Institutes in more than 80 countries. These schools teach both Chinese language and culture. The main courses of Chinese culture usually included Chinese art, history and philosophy. Some social scientists suggest that Westerners should take advantages of the ancient Chinese wisdom to make up for the drawbacks of Westerners philosophy. Students in the United States, at the same time, are racing to learn Chinese. So they will be ready for life in a world where China is an equal power with the United States. Businessmen who hope to make money in China are reading books about Confucius to understand their Chinese customers.So the old thinker’s ideas are still alive and well.Today China attracts the West more than ever, and it will need more teachers to introduce Confucius and Chinese culture to the West.As for the old thinker, he will not soon be forgotten by people in the West, even if his birthday is.48. The opening paragraph is mainly intended to ________A. provide some key facts about ConfuciusB. attract the readers’ interest in the subjectC. show great respect for the ancient thinkerD. prove the popularity of modern birthday celebrations49. We can learn from Paragraph 4 that American students______A. fight for a chance to learn ChineseB. try to get high scores in Chinese examsC. have a great interest in studying ChineseD. take an active part in Chinese competitions50. What is the best title for the passage?A. Forgotten Wisdom in AmericaB. Old Thinker with a Big FutureC. Chinese Culture for WesternersD. Huge Fans of the Chinese Language51. The passage is likely to appear in ___________.A. a newspaperB. a history paperC. a biographyD. a philosophy textbook（四）The world itself is becoming much smaller by using modern traffic and modern communication means. Life today is much easier than it was hundreds of years ago, but it has brought new problems. One of the biggest problems is pollution. To pollute means to make things dirty. Pollution comes in many ways. We see it, smell it, drink it and even hear it.Man has been polluting the earth. The more people, the more pollution. Many years ago, the problem was not so serious because there were not so many people. When the land was used up or the river was dirty in one place, man moved to another place. But this is no longer true.Man is now slowly polluting the whole world.Air pollution is still the most serious. It’s bad for all living things in the world, but it is not the only one kind of pollution. Water pollution kills our fish and pollutes our drinking water.

AJournalists who changed the worldHelen ThomasHelen was a White House reporter who had a front row seat of history as she interviewed nine American presidents across her career. She was praised for her cruel drive, with one White House press secretary describing her questioning as torture (拷问 ). Her refusal to hide her strong opinions, even when asking questions to a president, made her one of the best known journalists in Washington and a role in her field.Marie ColvinThe passionate and award-winning American journalist Marie Colvin worked as a foreign reporter at The Sunday Times from 1985 until she died in February 2012, doing what she loved. Marie crossed into Syria on the back of a motorcycle, ignoring the Syrian government's attempt to prevent foreign journalists from entering the country.Mary GarberIn 1946, sports journalism was a man's job where female sports writers weren't allowed to enter press boxes. Mary Garber changed that by paving the way for female sports writers. She first covered high school sports and then reported on college athletics. In June 2005, she became the first woman to receive the Associated Press Sports Editors' Red Smith Award, presented annually since 1981 for major contributions to sports journalism.Ann LeslieFew reporters have filed stories from more than 70 countries, but British journalist Ann Leslie is considered a unique force in journalism. Because the 73-year-old woman has witnessed and reported on some of the most significant events of the late20th century. She was there when the Berlin Wall came down, and she lost her shoes in the crush waiting for Nelson Mandela's release.1.What can we know about Helen Thomas?A.She made friends with nine American presidents.B.She was strong-minded and never gave in to others.C.She often got into trouble due to her questions.D.She was regarded as the best journalist in America.2.Who opens the door for women sports reporters?A.Helen Thomas.B.Marie Colvin.C.Mary Garber.D.Ann Leslie.3.Why is Ann Leslie called a unique force in journalism?A.She has visited many countries.B.She devotes herself to her job.C.She has experienced some great events.D.She tried her best to save Nelson Mandela.BJohn von Neumann was the oldest of 3 children of a banker, and his speed of learning new ideas and solving problems stood out early. At 17, his father tried to persuade him not to become a mathematician because he might lead a poor life being a mathematician, so von Neumann agreed to study chemistry as well. In 1926, at 23, he received a degree in chemical engineering and a Ph.D. in mathematics. From then on, mathematics provided well enough for him, and he never had to turn to chemistry. In 1930, von Neumann visited Princeton University for a year and then became a professor there. His first book was published in 1932. In 1933, the Institute for Advanced Study was formed, and he became one of the 6 full-time people in the School of Mathematics (Einstein was one of the others).World War II hugely changed von Neumann's areas of interest. Until 1940 he had been a great pure mathematician. During and after the war, he became one of the best mathematicians who put mathematical theories into practice. During the last part of the war he became interested in computing machines and made several fundamental contributions. After the war, von Neumann continued his work with computers, and was generally very active in government service. He received many awards, was president of the American Mathematical Society and was a member of the Atomic Energy Commission. He died of cancer in 1957.Von Neumann made several great contributions and any one of them would have been enough to earn him a firm place in history. He will be remembered as one of the greatest minds of the 20th century.Von Neumann really was a legend in his own time, and there are a number of stories about him. His driving ability is a part of his legend. He reported one accident this way: "I was driving down the road. The trees on the right were passing me in an orderly fashion at 60 miles per hour. Suddenly one of them stepped in my path."4.According to the text, von Neumann's father believed that ___.A.a mathematician couldn't earn a lot of moneyB.a mathematician needed a good memoryC.von Neumann had the ability to learn two subjects at the same timeD.von Neumann had the gift for solving problems at a high speed5.Von Neumann published his first book at the age of ___.A.25B.26C.29D.326.How did World War II affect John von Neumann?A.He realized the importance of engineering.B.He began to research how to put mathematics into practice.C.He left college and served at the government department.D.He lost interest in chemistry.7.From the last paragraph, we can infer John von Neumann was ___.A. calmB. braveC. intelligentD. humorousCWhat's the meaning of the "dark horse"? It's someone who wins when no one expects it.Han Xiaopeng took China's first gold on snow. He became an Olympic "dark horse" by winning the gold medal in men's freestyle skiing aerials (自由式滑雪空中技巧 ) at Turin in Italy. He made two almost perfect jumps for the highest score. Han had never won a world gold medal before, let alone in the Olympics!"I never thought this would happen," said Han Xiaopeng. "I feel like I'm in a dream." It's China's second gold medal at the Turin Olympic Winter Games. But more important, Han's gold was the country's first ever in a snow sport. In 2002, China's Yang Yang won the gold for speed skating at the Winter Olympics in Salt Lake City, US.That Han's win was unexpected doesn't mean that he didn't work hard.Han grew up in Jiangsu Province. Before he started his training on snow, he used to be an acrobat (杂技演员) at a circus. In 1995, a coach found his talent. The coach, Yang Er'qi , said Han had the agility (灵活性) and courage to be a ski jumper. When Yang first took the 12-year-old boy to northern China, he couldn't swim, skate or ski. But he wasn't afraid of the high platform and kept on training.Han almost left the sport after hurting his knee months before the Salt Lake Games. In that Olympics he only got 24th. "I was hopeless at that time, but my family and the coach stood firmly behind me, helping me through," he recalled.Han Xiaopeng worked so hard that he won the gold medal in the Olympics at last. Because of his success, more and more people in China are becoming interested in skiing. We are proud of him.8.What does the "dark horse" mean?A.A horse which is dark.B.Someone who is unexpected to win.C.A horse which likes the dark.D.Someone whose win is expected.9.Where did Han Xiaopeng take China's first gold on snow?A.In China.B.In Italy.C.In America.D.In Australia.10.What made the coach, Yang Er'qi, choose Han Xiaopeng to be a ski jumper?A.He had enough courage though he was only 13 years old.B.He was born in the south of China and liked sports on snow.C.He had the agility and wasn't afraid of the high platform.D.He had the talent and he had won a world gold medal before.11.What is the best title for this passage?A.A Wonderful MatchB.A Dark Horse at the Winter OlympicsC.A Hopeful Snow GameD.An Exciting Skiing RaceDCan I talk about salary at work? In a word: yes. As the HR company Insperity put it in a recent blog post: Can your employees discuss their salaries or wages with their co-workers? Yes. Even if you have a company policy against it? Yes.The freedom to discuss your salary at work is a protected right under the labor law. The National Labor Relations Act of 1935 protects your right to discuss the conditions of your employment, including issues related to safety and pay, even when you're not protected by a union.Talking about salary with colleagues can be uncomfortable, since there's such a taboo about discussing money matters, but it's an important step towards achieving equal pay for equal work. One barrier, however, stems from how we think of our own financial worth. Too many people I talk to wrongly consider their salary a reflection of their worthiness, a statement about their skills, experience, or value. At the end of the day, if we can all separate our self-worth from our salaries a bit more, it'll become easier to talk frankly with our colleagues.Asking about money outright can be tough, so one trick I've picked up along the way is to ask for your colleagues to confirm or deny. For instance, you might volunteer your salary first and ask "Does that sound right to you?" by way of comparison. Or, let's say you're interviewing for a promotion to become a manager. You might ask a fellow manager about the kind of salary you should expect by saying, "I'm seeing salaries for this kind of position ranging from $65,000 to$ 70,000—does that seem accurate to you?" This way, even if your colleague isn't comfortable sharing their salary outright, they can help you identify if your expectations are appropriate.12.What makes co-workers uncomfortable to talk about salaries?A.The safety issue.B.The labor law.C.The wrong idea about salaries.D.The reflection of their worthiness.13.What does the underlined word "taboo" in Paragraph 3 refer to?A.A prohibited practice.B.A firm belief.C.A general agreement.D.A social custom.14.What is mainly talked about in Paragraph 4?A.One of my interview experiences.B.My way of asking about money.C.The method of raising questions.D.An example of getting promoted.15.What can be the best title for the text?A.How to Discuss Salaries at WorkB.Ways of Talking about SalariesC.Do Salaries Stand for Self-worth?D.Can Salaries be Talked about at Work?第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5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。
