Taking Chances
My mother recently read me a speech she had made at a local high school, hoping to 36
英语第15页（共12页）
my endless quest for answers to everything.
Ever since I was very young, 37 of making mistakes, I've asked countless times, "What should I do?" I don’t remember clearly when I 38 only to do things the "right" way, and made "doing it the right way" my motto.
However, sometime during my high school years, I 39 . Maybe it was when I decided to try for the lead in "Beauty and the Beast." Never mind that I would have to memorize 40 and rehearse movements, I would take the chance that I might 41 . On the day of tryouts, my heart was pounding; my hands were 42 badly when I got up to sing. But when I opened my mouth, the sound was loud and 43 . I reached for the high notes that sometimes were 44 my reach.
I was trying to do my best even though I might fail. 45 I didn’t!
The audition (试镜) was definitely an 46 part of the process. I realized that if I wanted to live life to the fullest, I had to take 47 .
Now, I do take these chances, with baby steps, every day; voicing my opinions in class discussions or debates, 48 for a high note in church choir, riding my horse over a three-foot jump.
Three years ago, I broke my back when I fell from my horse. The 49 meant I couldn't try out for basketball, which I loved. And, the day I 50 out for track was the first day my doctor allo wed me to do any physical activity at all. The coach didn’t take me, so I started running with my mom. No stop-watches. No cheering crowds. I didn’t 51 the track team, but I didn’t fail, either.
I have finally learned to 52 myself, like taking a tough science course. And I have come to realize that even though my parents, friends and teachers don’t always have the 53 to “What should I do?”, they will be there to 54 me when I try.
“Life is learning to deal with Plan B,” my mother 55 in her speech. But I now know that the Plan A’s I make for my life will become easier and easier with every chance I take.

42. A. hurting B. shaking C. suffering D. struggling
43. A. powerful B. gentle C. innocent D. distant

Flower Power
When her grandmother’s health beg an to worsen last autumn, Mary would make the drive from Washington, DC to Winchester, V A every few days.
She hated highway driving, finding it ugly and boring. She preferred to take winding country roads to her grandmother’s hospital. When she drove throu gh the rocky town of Harpers Ferry, the beauty of the rough waters was always appealing to her.
Toward the end of her journey, Mary had to get on highway 81. It was here that she discovered a surprising bit of beauty during one of her trips. Along the shoulder of the highway, there was a long stretch of wild flowers. They were thin and delicate and purple, and moved back and forth in the wind as if whispering poems to each other.
The first time she saw the flowers, Mary was seized by an uncontrollable urge to pull over on the highway and pull a bunch from the soil. She carried them into her grandmother’s room when she arrived at the hospital and placed them in a vase by her bed.
For a moment her grandmother seemed more lucid（清醒的）than usual. She thanked Mary for the flowers, commented on their beauty and asked where she had gotten them. Mary was overjoyed by the ability of the flowers to wake something up inside her sick grandmother.
Afterwards, Mary began carrying scissors in the car during her trips to visit her grandmother. She would quickly glide onto the shoulder, jump out of the car, and clip a bunch of flowers. Each time Mary placed the flowers in the vase, her grandmother’s eyes would light up and they would have a splendid conversation.
One morning in late October, Mary got a call that her grandmother had taken a turn for the worse. Mary was in such a hurry to get to her grandmother that she sped past her flower spot. She decided to turn around, head several miles back, and cut a bunch.
Mary arrived at the hospital to find her grandmother very weak and unresponsive. She placed the flowers in the vase and sat down to hold her grandmother’s hand. She felt a squeeze on her fingers. It was the last conversation they had.
59. Mary preferred to take country roads to the hospital because she could ________.
A. get on highway 81 more easily
英语第15页（共12页）
B. pick wild flowers for her grandmother
C. enjoy the natural view along the roads
D. spend less time driving to the destination
60. When Mary placed the flowers by her gran dmother’s bed, her grandmother _________.
A. was overjoyed by the flowers
B. commented on Mary’s beauty
C. came alive at the sight of the flowers
D. was curious about the type of the flowers
61. From the passage, we know that ________.
A. Mary discovered the wild flowers along the country roads
B. Mary’s last conversation with her grandmother was a silent one
C. Mary headed several miles back because she sped past the hospital
D. Mary’s grandmother had passed away before she arrived at the hospital
62. What does the passage convey to us?
A. Beauty in nature can be powerful.
B. Love has no beginning or ending.
C. Life is as beautiful as summer flowers.
D. Flowers have the magic to cure diseases.
C
Seeds on Ice
Close to the North Pole, remote and rocky Plateau
Mountain in the Norwegian archipelago of Svalbard seems an
unlikely spot for any global effort to safeguard agriculture. In
this cold and deserted environment, no grains, no gardens, no
trees can grow. Yet at the end of a 130-meter-long tunnel cut
out of solid stone is a room filled with humanity’s most
precious treasure, the largest and most diverse seed collection
---more than a half-billion seeds.
A quiet rescue mission is under way. With growing
evidence that unchecked climate change will seriously affect food production and threaten the diversity of crops around the world, the Svalbard Global Seed Vault represents a major step towards ensuring the preservation of hundreds of thousands of crop varieties. This is a seed collection, but more importantly, it is a collection of the traits found within the seeds: the genes that give one variety resistance to a particular pest and another variety tolerance for hot, dry weather.
Few people will ever see or come into contact with the contents of this vault. In sealed boxes, behind multiple locked doors, monitored by electronic security systems, enveloped in below-zero temperatures, and surrounded by tons of rock, hundreds of millions of seeds are protected in their mountain fortress. Frozen in such conditions inside the mountain, seeds of most major crops will remain viable for hundreds of years, or longer. Seeds of some are capable of retaining their ability to grow for thousands of years.
Everyone can look back now and say that the Seed V ault was a good and obvious idea, and that of course the Norwegian government should have approved and funded it. But back in 2004, when
英语第15页（共12页）
the Seed Vault was proposed, it was viewed as a crazy, impractical, and expensive idea.
We knew that nothing would provide a definite guarantee. But we were tired, fed up, and frankly scared of the steady, greater losses of crop diversity. The Seed Vault was built by optimists who wanted to do something to preserve options so that humanity and its crops might be better prepared for change. If it simply resupplied seed gene banks with samples those gene banks had lost, this would repay our efforts.
The Seed Vault is about hope and commitment—about what can be done if countries come together and work cooperatively to accomplish something significant, long-lasting, and worthy of who we are and wish to be.
63. According to the passage, the Seed Vault is _______.
A. a tunnel where the collected seeds are displayed
B. a stone room that contains the seeds of endangered crops
C. a seed gene bank that stores diverse seeds for future agriculture
D. a lab where researchers study how to maintain the diversity of crops
64. The underlined word “viable” in Paragraph 3 probably means _______.
A. mature
B. clean
C. alive
D. valuable
65. Paragraph 3 mainly tells us ___________.
A. how the seeds are preserved
B. where people keep the seeds
C. why the seeds are protected
D. what people do to study the seeds
66. We can know from the passage that ____________.
A.the Seed Vault offers a solution to climate change
B.most countries took part in rescuing the seed varieties
C.the Seed Vault guarantees to prevent the loss of crop diversity
D.many people originally considered building the Seed Vault unwise
D
Young Americans Are Less Wealthy Than Their Parents
The cost of living in the United States is going up, notes writer Alissa Quartz. As is reported in New York Post, Quartz points to “the costs of housing, education and health care in particular.” At the same t ime, a new study, the report of which is called “The Fading American Dream” found that half of Americans born in the 1980s are falling behind their parents economically.
These findings show that many younger adults are experiencing “downward mobility.” In other words, they are not doing as well economically as their parents were at the same age. The idea of downward mobility is especially troubling for Americans, writes Robert Samuelson in The Washington Post. He says most U.S. citizens believe that, over time, the amount of money they earn will rise and life will get easier.
Alissa Quartz wrote a book about the financial difficulties of Americans. In the book, Quartz tells about teachers who are struggling to pay for regular costs. One high school teacher drives for ride sharing service Uber at night to earn more money. He corrects students’ papers between riders.
A college professor turned to government assistance to feed her child and pay for a doctor. Quartz says even lawyers increasingly cannot earn an income that enables them to meet their needs. The problem of decreasing incomes in their field is made worse by debt they may have from law school.
英语第15页（共12页）
Quartz and the economists who studied these issues say many things have led to lower incomes and downward mobility. The economic recession of 2007 to 2009 is partly to blame, they say. Modern technology also plays a part. Quartz says robots threaten to reduce the earnings of health care workers,reporters, and people who work at supermarkets, drug stores and tax preparation services. In The Washington Post, Robert Samuelson noted that poor schools, a weak housing industry and too many government rules are also to blame.
With all these things, and more, partly responsible, what is the solution? These experts say the answer is complex. But all point to one issue that needs to be examined: economic inequality. Quartz writes that while America is one of the richest countries in the world, it also has one of the biggest divides between the wealthy and the poor.
The researchers in “The Fading American Dream” study make a similar observation. They say raising GDP will not significantly improve the economic situation of most Americans. A higher GDP may help only those who are already doing well. Instead, the economists say, the United States could try to repeat something Americans born in the 1940s experienced. As those children grew up, they almost all benefited from a better economy.
67. The author mentions two reports in Paragraph 1 in order to ___________.
A. explain the results of two researches
B. introduce his opinions about the issue
C. attract readers’ attention to health care
D. lead to the topic of downward mobility
68. What’s the main idea of Paragraph 4?
A. The causes of downward mobility.
B. The influences of government rules.
C. The negative effects of modern technology.
D. The results of economic recession in America.
69. The author indicates in this passage that___________________.
A. raising GDP will greatly help the poor
B. American economy has a bright future
C. young Americans will repeat their parents’ experience
D. it’s vital to narrow the gap between the rich and the poor
70. We can learn from the passage that in America, ____________________.
A. people miss the good old days in the 1940s
B. people are suffering from a worse economy
C. people are pessimistic about future economy
D. people complain a lot about economic changes

How to Turn Your Goals into Habits
First we make our habits, then our habits make us. It’s such a simple concept, yet it’s something we don’t always do.
英语第15页（共12页）
I believe that having ONE goal to focus on is much more powerful than having many goals. By putting the belief into practice, I have achieved a lot of personal goals over time. ____71____ My answer takes a little explaining. I try to turn my goals into habits, and in doing so, I put my goals on autopilot. Turning a goal into a habit means really focusing on it for at least a month. The more you can focus, the more it'll be on autopilot. ___72 __ You’ll still do it, but you only have to use minimal force to maintain it, and you can focus on your next goal or habit.
Take my marathon goal as an example. I was just starting running and had the brilliant idea to run a marathon within a year. So that was my goal. ___73___ First, I had to make running a daily habit. Second, I had to report to people in order to have accountability (负责) so that I could not quit easily. I focused on the daily running habit for about a month, and didn’t have any other goals or habits. When the running habit stuck, I started reporting to people I knew and blogging about my running every day.
____74_____ I could focus on new goals without having to worry about the marathon. I still had to do the running, of course, but it didn’t require constant focus. ____75____ I was able to achieve this because, all year long, I had daily running and accountability habits. I put my marathon goal into autopilot, so instead of struggling with it daily for an entire year, I focused on it for one month and was able to accomplish it while focusing on new habits and goals.
A. And eventually, I ran the first marathon in my life.
B. At the beginning, it was very difficult for me to achieve this goal.
C. But in order to achieve it, I broke it down into two habits.
D. W ith this accountability, there’s no way I could stop running.
E. Once you put it on autopilot, you don't have to focus on it much.
F. My readers asked me how I was able to achieve them while working on different projects.
G. Once those two habits were established, my marathon goal was pretty much on autopilot.

Hope my suggestions can be of help. If you want to learn anything more, don’t hesitate to contact me.
Best wishes.

topic. In the end, my idea to show the history of Chinese characters stood out.
We started by learning more about the topic. Firstly, we visited the museum to learn about the origin and evolution of Chinese characters. We also consulted our teacher, who explained to us how they came into being. The next step was to make the display board. With our joint efforts, we successfully made an informative and attractive one.
On the day when the exhibition “Pride of China” was held in our school, I introduced the charm of Chinese characters with great pride, which was well received with applauses. I am glad that we did our bit in providing the students with a chance to appreciate the achievements of ancient and modern China.

第三部分：阅读理解(共25小题。A节每小题2分, B节每小题1分;满分45分) 阅读下列短文, 从每题所给的四个选项中, 选出一个最佳答案。 B When I was a boy, I belonged to the Boy Scouts(童子军), so I used to go camping every summer, and once something happened which I have never been able to explain. We were camping in a place above a river. After arriving, we all rushed down to the river had a swim. Standing by the river, we noticed that it was surrounded(环绕)by cliffs (悬崖). If someone wanted to reach the river at this point, he had to walk past our camp. Several days later, the scoutmaster had to he away for a day. That afternoon, we had supper early. We were sitting round the fire, eating and talking, when a man walked past and went down towards the river. We all felt that this man looked very strange, but, because each of us was afraid of looking very stupid, no one said anything. We ate rather slowly, taking as long as possible. After finishing, we collected our plates together so that we could take them to the river where we always washed them. But no one moved towards the river- we stood looking at each other ashamed. Then all shouting at once, we began talking about the man who had walked past us. We agreed how strange he looked and we wondered what he could be doing by the river. We knew that he could only return by passing through our camp. An hour passed. Then one of the boys suggested we should creep(悄悄移动)down by the river so that we could see what the man was doing. Moving very slowly and keeping in the shadow, we crept down towards the bank.One boy climbed a tree so that he could see everything clearly. He called to us that there was no one there, so we ran down to the bank, looking every-where carefully. We could not understand where the man had gone. When it got dark, we went back to our camp feeling bewildered. We told the scoutmaster what had happened in the evening. Smiling, he doubted that we had seen the man, but finally suggested we go and look again. We did, but there was no one there. Many years have passed, but I still remember it as if it were yesterday. What did we see? I do not know.

Forms will be available in school and online for them to indicate their choices and return to school. Before choices are finalised, parents/ carers will be asked to sign to confirm their children’s choices.

Travel to London B. see a parade and fireworks. C. Tour central Paris. D. Visit the WWI battlefields. 23. How long does Potty about Potter last? A. Two days. B. Four days C. Five days D. One week. B Many of us love July because it’s the month when nature’s berries and stone fruits are in abundance. These colorful and sweet jewels from British Columbia’s fields are little powerhouses of nutritional protection. Of the common berries, strawberries are highest in vitamin C, although, because of their seeds, raspberries contain a little more protein(蛋白质), iron and zinc (not that fruits have much protein). Blueberries are particularly high in antioxidants (抗氧化物质). The yellow and orange stone fruits such as peaches are high in the carotenoids we turn into Vitamin A and which are antioxidants. As for cherries(樱桃), they are so delicious who care? However, they are rich in Vitamin C. When combined with berries or slices of other fruits, frozen bananas make an excellent base for thick, cooling fruits shakes and low fat “ice cream”. For this purpose, select ripe bananas for freezing as they are much sweeter. Remove the skin and place them in plastic bags or containers and freeze. If you like, a squeeze of fresh lemon juice on the bananas will prevent them turning brown. Frozen bananas will last several weeks, depending on their ripeness and the temperature of the freezer.
