The real test of character is whether we can learn from our mistake, by understanding why we acted as we did, and then __37__ ways to avoid similar problems in the future.Making ethical(伦理的) decisions is a(n) __38___ part of avoiding future problems. We must learn to __39___risks, because if we can't see the risks were taking, we can't make responsible choices. To recognize risks, we need to know the rules and be ___40___of the facts.For example, one who doesn't know the rules about plagiarism(剽窃)may accidentally use words or ideas without giving___41___credit or one who fails to keep careful research notes may unintentionally fail to quote(引用) and cite sources as__42___. But the fact that such a violation is "unintentional" does not excuse the misconduct. Ignorance is not a(n) ____43___.Most people who get in trouble do know the rules and facts, but manage to fool themselvesabout the risks they're taking by using excuses: "Everyone else does it, ","i'm not hurting anyone,or "I really need this grade. "Excuses can get very complex: "I know i'm looking at anothers exam,even though i'm supposed to keep my eyes on my own paper, but that's not ___44___ because. I'm just checking my answers, not copying, We must be honest about our actions, and____45____ excuses. If we fool ourselves into believing we,re not doing anything wrong, we can'tsee the real choice we're making--and that leads to bad decisions.To avoid fooling yourself, watch out for excuses and try this test: Ask how you would feel if.your actions were public, and anyone could be watching over your shoulder. Would you feel proud or ___46___of your actions? If you'd rather hide your actions, that's a good indication thatyou're taking a risk and rationalizing it to yourself.Ill.

Margery, the eldest of the three children, had signed up to the Royal Air Force as part of the war effort, when John was still a baby. The family lost touch and as the decades passed only a single letter gave a clue to where she might be The clue was enough for a WHT reader to recognize Margery and put the family back in touch.John, 67, said he had been searching for a long time and a friend suggested his writing to the paper.“That's what made it, the letter to the paper was written back a few months ago, he said.” it's as if a dream came true.

It covers almost every aspect of millennials’ experiences on their path toward adolescence - their struggles with schoolwork, their relationship with peers, their confusion if a younger brother or sister is born into the family, and their growing desire to keep a distance from their parents. But this five-episode series was different from any other TV program with a similar theme.Post-00s was film over a period of 10 years, during which the show's makers followed a group of kids from when they were infants through to when they became teenagers. In other words, the show's "character" grow older for real, and their stories are all real."Coming-of-age" stories, as they're known, have special appeal. They satisfy our curiosity of looking at someone else' life, and we become more and more attached to the characters as if we truly know them. And while we enjoy the truthfulness of the stories because nothing is set in advance, we also cannot help but feel the cruelty of reality. After all, there's no re-writing of the script (副本) and there's no turning back - this is real life.This realness can also be seen in Boyhood. a 2014 film that won the Silver Bear award for best director at the 64th Berlin International Film Festival. During a period of 12 years, the film follows the life of Mason Jr. played by US actor Ellar Coltrane - from when he was 6 to when he finished high school.One of Boyhood's appeals comes from its "ordinariness". Mason Jr. isn't some child genius....He is a quietly spoken, fairly typical American boy, growing up in the Texas suburbs.He likes riding his bike and playing video games.While coming-of-age stories may look ordinary on the outside, they often allow us to look underneath the surface and see something extraordinary— the power of life itself.69. In the documentary, we see post-00's growing experience EXCEPT .A. how they deal with their studies.B. how they help look after brothers or sisters.C. how they get along with people of their ageD. how much they long to be independent of their parents70. What do Post-00 and Boyhood have in common?A. They're intended to win an award for best director.B. The heroes and heroines are characters themselves.C. They're a kind of reality show of ordinary kids' growth.D. The stories are based on true life but polished by writers.71. Audience are interested in "coming-of-age" stories because .A. they can see the truth of lifeB. they know the characters wellC. they are much fond of gossip.D. they appreciate stories of daily life72. Which of the following might be the best title for the passage?A. Post-00s are different geniuses.B. Actors are ordinary characters.C. Documentary is real lifeD. Life is one big StorySection C(4')Directions: complete the following passage by using the sentences given below. Each sentence can only be used once. Note that there are two more sentences than you need.“Any apples today?” Effie asked cheerfully at my window. I followed her to her truck and bought a kilo. On credit, of course. Cash was the one thing in the world I lacked just then 73 .All pretense(借口) of payment was dropped when our funds, food and fuel decreased to alarming lows. Effie came often, always bringing some gift: a jar of peaches or some firewood There were other generosities. 74 Effie was not a rich woman. Her income, derived from investments she had made while running an interior decorating shop, had never exceeded $200 a month, which she supplemented by selling her apples. But she always managed to help someone poorer.Years passed before I was able to return the money Effie had given me from time to time. She was ill now and had aged rapidly in the last year. "Here, daring," I said, "is what I owe(欠) you", 75 "Give it back as I gave it to you - a little at a time.” I think she believed there was magic in the slow discharge of a love debt.The simple fact is that I never repaid the whole amount to Effie, for she died a few weeks late. By now, the few dollars Effie gave me have been multiplied many times. But curious thing began to happen.Whenever I saw a fellow human in financial trouble, I was moved to help him. I can't afford to do this always, but in the ten years since Effie’s death, I have indirectly repaid my debt to her.76 At that time, it seemed that my debt would forever go unsettled. So the account can be marked closed, for Effie’s love will go on in hearts that have never known her.第II 卷（21%）IV. Grammar (6%)Directions: After reading the passage below, fill in the blanks to make the passage coherent and grammatically correct. For the blanks with a given word, fill in each blank with the proper form of the given word; for the other blanks, use one word that best fits each blank.The Grasshopper in Van Gogh PaintingArt conservators(管理员) dream of finding hidden secrets in the masterpieces they lookafter. Rarely do they expect to find a dead grasshopper.Conservators at the Nelson-Atkins museum of art in Kansas City said they discovered thedead insect in one of its star paintings, Vincent van Gogh’s Olive Trees, when it (77)_______(scan) as part of the research for a catalogue of its French painting collection.It was spotted by Mary Schafer. She told a local broadcaster that she found it in the work’s lower foreground. Looking at the painting with the microscope，I came across the tiny body of a grasshopper covered in the paint, so it must have occurred in the wet paint back in 1889.“We can connect it to Van Gogh painting outside, so we think of him battling the elements, dealing with the wind, the bugs, and then he’s got to walk back to his studio through the fields. What’s fun is that we can come up with all these stories for (78)_______ the insect landed in the paint.”Schafer said they were curious to know if the grasshopper could be studied further to possibly identify (79) season Van Gogh painted Olive Trees.Michael Engel, a professor at the University of Kansas, was approached to examine the grasshopper further. He discovered that part of the insect’s body was missing and there was no sign (80) movement in the surrounding paint. In other words, it was already dead (81)_______ it somehow landed on the artist’s wet canvas and could not be used for dating purposes.Van Gogh painted Olive Trees in 1889, the year after his falling out with his friend Gauguin, (82)_______ may have led to his famous act of self-mutilation in the history of art: cutting off his own ear.The grasshopper may not help in any art historical research but it has become a talking point for museum visitors, looking closely into the painting to see whether they can spot the dead insect.V.

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.ANot all memories are sweet. Some people spend all their lives trying to forget bad experiences. Violence and traffic accidents can leave people with terrible physical and emotional scars（伤疤）. Often they relive（在想像中再体验）these experiences.Now American researchers think they are close to developing a pill, which help people forget bad memories. The pill is designed to be taken immediately after a frightening experience. They hope it might reduce, or possibly erase the effect of painful memories.In November, experts tested a drug on people in the US and France. The drug stops the body releasing chemicals that fix memories in the brain. So far, the research has suggested that only the emotional effects of memories may be reduced, not that the memories are erased.The research has caused a great deal of argument. Some think it is a bad idea, while others support it. Supporters say it could lead to pills that prevent or treat soldiers’ troubling memories after wars.They say that there are many people who suffer from terrible memories. “Some memories can ruin people’s lives. They come back to you when you don’t want to have them in a daydream or nightmare. They usually come with very painful emotions,” said Roger Pitman, a professor of psychiatry（精神病学）at Harvard Medical School，“This could relieve a lot of that suffering.”But those who are against the research say that changing memories is very dangerous because memories give us our identity. They also help us avoid the mistakes in the pas t. “All of us can think of bad events in our lives that were horrible at the time but make us who we are. I am not sure whether we’d want to wipe those memories out.” said Rebecca Dresser, a medical ethicist.65. The underlined word “it” in Paragraph 4 refers to “_____”.a. the new drugb. the research into the drugc. the bad memoryd. the chemical in the drug66.Which of the following is NOT the opinion of the opponents(反对者)?a. Our memories give us our identity.b. The memories help human avoid mistakes of the past.c. The drug should be used in only very serious cases.d. People may not be sure whether they want to wipe the memories out.67. What’s the main idea of this passage?a. People often suffer from bad memories.b. American researchers have developed a pill.c. Forget bad memories, and be happy.d. Developing pills for helping forget bad memories has caused a heated argument.BMilan, the second largest city of Italy, has won an undesirable world record. Of the 54 big cities studied by the World Health Organization and the United Nations, Milan was thought of to have the worst air pollution.According to these two 10-year studies, the level of air pollution in Milan is twice as high as the levels in Paris and Beijing and three times those in Tokyo and London, and four times that in New York.The reason for Milan’s bad pollution, according to scientists, is that the city lies in a valley that stops the poisonous gases.Though Milan has taken some measures to lower the level of pollution, the situation is still worrying. People joke to each other, “If you’re traveling to Milan, be sure to bring your gas mask.”68.Why is the air pollution in Milan so serious?a.Because the city lies in a place where it is difficult for polluted air to moveaway.b.Because too many cars are being driven in the city.c.Because there are some mountains in the city.d.Because Milan has taken some worrying measures.69.The level of air pollution in London is higher than that in _____ and lower thanthat in _____.a. New York, Beijingb. Milan, Parisc. New York, Tokyod. Beijing, Milan70. According to the passage which of the following is true?a. Milan has taken no measure so far to lower the level of pollution.b. Milan has taken every step to cut down the air pollution.c. Milan has taken measures and the air pollution is being cut down.d. Milan has taken some measures, but the air pollution is still troublesome.71. In this passage there is NO answer to the question:_____.a. What’s the reason for the air pollution in Milan?b. What are the measures taken by Milan to cut down air pollution?c. Which city’s air is thought of to be worst polluted?d. Who said that the air in Milan was badly pollution?CSteven Spielberg is a household name. He is a person who has entertained the world with stories of all kinds, a person who’s made us cry with the tale of an alien who just wanted to go home, who’s scared us with sharks and dinosaurs, and who brought us the horrors of World War II in Schindler’s List.Spielberg developed an interest in movies at an early age. At 12, he started hisattempt to make his own short films. At age 16, Spielberg made his first film, Firelight, which earned back its whole budget in one night –US$500. Spielberg got poor grades in high school and wasn’t accepted to any film schools. But one of his short films called Amblin won awards at Venice and Atlanta film festivals. It also caught attention of the head of Universal’s TV division. He signed Spielberg to a seven-year contract. At 20, Spielberg was the youngest director ever to get such a deal.In 1974, Spielberg made Sugarland Express, but to the producer’s surprise, the film performed poorly at the box office. 1975 was a different story, however. Spielberg was chosen to direct Jaws. “Parts of the book terrorized me. I tried to translate my fear into visual language.”He succeeded. It was a great hit. Spielberg continued his string of hits in 1981 with Raiders of the Lost Ark. The film earned Spielberg his first Oscar nomination for best director. Films two and three in the series also thrilled audiences. A fourth is now scheduled for release in 2005. In 1985, Spielberg challenged himself to make a more serious film. The Color Purple was the result. The film earned 11 Academy Award nominations， but didn’t win a single award. Finally, in 1993 Spielberg’s heartbreaking film Schindler’s List earned him an Academy Award for best director.In 2002, Spielberg received another honor that he treasures highly – a college diploma. But he hopes his children won’t take 33 years to finish their degrees!Spielberg continues to make films. Not all are box office hits, but each tells a story as only Spielberg can. Spielberg ranks as the most successful director ever. Other directors may try to catch him—if they can.72.Please rearrange the following events according to the time sequence.A.Spielberg finished his college education.B.Spielberg made the Color Purple.C.Spielberg won his first Oscar nomination.D.Spielberg made the 4th of Raiders of the Lost Ark.E.Spielberg made Amblin.F.Spielberg won the Academy Award for best director.a. ECBDFAb. ECBFADc. CBEFADd. CEBDFA73. What do you know about Spielberg’s education according to the passage?a. He never had a chance to study in a college or a university.b. He failed to graduate from the high school because of his poor scores.c. He quit study while still a child and devoted himself to the movie career.d. It took him many years to finish his college education.74. What does “such a deal” refer to in the 2nd paragraph?a. The awards Spielberg won at Venice and Atlanta film festivals.b. The reputation Spielberg gained as a young director.c. The seven-year contract signed with University’s TV division.d. Great attention from the head of University’s TV division.75. Which of the following is NOT true?a. Spielberg’s Firelight was quite a success as a beginner’s first try.b. Spielberg himself was terrified by the book Jaws.c. Raiders of the Lost Ark was a great hit after Jaws.d. The producer of Sugarland Express considered it a failure.76. What dies the last sentence actually mean?a. Other directors have a long way to go if they wants to catch up with Spielberg.b. There are other directors thinking they can surpass Spielberg sooner or later.c. Other directions are not likely to get close to Spielberg.d. Spielberg is considered so talented and unique that no other director can surpass him.Section C (5’)Directions: Read the following passage and choose the most suitable heading from A-F for each paragraph. There is one extra heading which you do not need.The rewards of a skill that is in strictly limited supply depend upon the demand for that skill. Men’s professional basketball is extremely popular, and the top NBA players make millions of dollars per year. There are some great women basketball players, too, but because women’s professional basketball has not become popular, these women’s skills go comparatively unrewarded.Some people with very rare skills can make enormous salaries in a free market economy. Paula Abdel has a voice that millions of people are willing to pay to hear in person, and on tapes, CDs, records, and videos. Before Pablo Picasso died, he could sell small sketches for vast sums of money. Were they worth it? They were worth exactly what the highest bidder (出价人) was willing to pay.Not all skills are inborn, however. Some people have invested in training and schooling to improve their knowledge and skills. When we go to school, we are investing in human capital that we expect to yield dividends, partly in the form of higher wages, later on. Human capital is also produced through on-the-job training.Some jobs are more desirable than others. Entry-level positions in attractive industries such as publishing and television tend to be low-paying. Since talented people are willing to take entry-level jobs in these industries at salaries below what they could earn in other occupations, there must be other, non-wage rewards. It may be that the job itself is more personally rewarding, or that a low-paying apprenticeship is the only way to acquire the human capital necessary to advance. 77. 78. 79. 80.On the other hand, compensating differentials are required when an occupation is very dangerous. Workers on skyscrapers and bridges command additional wages. Fire fighters in cities that have many old, run-down buildings are usually paid more than those in relatively tranquil rural or suburban areas.Section D (共4小题，每小题1分，满分4分)Directions: Read the passage carefully. Then answer the questions or complete the statements in NO MORE THAN 10 WORDSKids who live in cold places have always enjoyed making snowballs and having snowball fights. Could snowball fighting become an Olympic sports? Probably not anythime soon – but the sport is growing. The rules have recently been made, and people are starting to think of having snowball fighting as a team sport. In this sport, players throw snowballs at players on the other team and try to get their flag, which is on their side of the field. Snowball fighting sport is becoming very popular among kids. When the season turns to winter, matches are held all over Japan. In a city of Hokkaido(北海道), one member of the team, Hattori Yosuke, who is in the sixth grade, explains, “In the winter in Hokkaido, it’s cold and there is a lot of snow, so we can’t play baseball. Snowball fighting is fun, because it gives us another way to run around outside.” Another member says, “It’s very exciting when you catch the flag of the other team.”A snowball-fighting field is 36 meters wide and 10 meters long. Each team has for forwards(前锋) and three backs who throw snowballs at the players on the other team. The players carry and make snowballs behind 90-centimeter-high walls made of snow in different places around the filed. While trying to protect themselves from their competing players’snowballs, they need to run quickly into the other team’s place and try to get the flag. Players who are hit by snowballs are out of the game, and must leave the field. If all the players on one team get out, they lose the game. The International Snowball Fighting Championship(冠军赛) games include 190 teams from all over Japan and overseas. The sport has already been played in other coutries. If snowball fighting becomes more and more popular, it’s possible that one day it just might really become an Olympic sport.1.How many players are there on each team during a snowball fighting match?2.When should the players leave the game?3.How do kids like the snowball fighting?4.The winning team is the one that ____________Write your answers on your ANSWER SHEET IN NO MORE THAN 10 WORDS第二卷Translation (15’)1.他逐渐意识到吸烟的危害。

Keesh lived at the North Pole a long time ago ．He lived near the edge of the polar sea ．He was a bright thirtee n-year-old boy with a strong, healthy body ．His father was a brave man who had died during a food shortage in the village第7页共20页◎第8页共20页．His father tried to save the lives of his people by fighting a giant polar bear．Keesh’s father was crushed to death during the struggle．But he killed the bear, and the meat from the bear kept the people from starving．Keesh was his only son, and he lived alone with his mother．But people are forgetful, and they soon forgot how K eesh’s father had saved their lives．And since Keesh was only a boy and his mother was a woman and not a warrior （勇士）, they were forced to live in the smallest and poorest igloo in the village．One night there was a council meeting in the large igloo of Klosh-Kwan, who was the chief．At that meeting Keesh showed how much courage he possessed．He rose to his feet and waited for silence．Then, with the dignity（尊严）of an older man, he said, “It is true that my mother and I are given meat to eat．But the meat is always old and toug h, filled with bones, and difficult to eat．”The hunters-both the young and the old-were shocked to hear a child speak to them that way．But Keesh went on steadily, “Because my father, Bok, was a gr eat hunter, I can speak these words．You know that Bok brought home more meat than any hunter in the village．T he oldest woman, the weakest old man, received a fair share．”Keesh waited calmly until the shouting died down．“My mother has no one except me, and therefore I must spea k．My father put his life in danger and died, to provide food for this village．It is only right that I, his son and his wif e should have enough good meat as long as there is plenty of good meat in this village．I, Keesh, the son of Bok, hav e spoken．”He sat down．He could hear angry murmuring all around him．Some men began to shout at Keesh．They ordere d him to leave．They threatened to punish him by not giving him any food at all．Keesh’s eyes flashed and the bloo d pounded under his skin．In the midst of the noise and the uproar, he jumped to his feet．“Listen to me, you men!”he shouted．“I shall never speak in this council again-not until you come to invite me to speak．My father was a great hunter, and so will I be．”They laughed at Keesh and followed him out of the igloo, shouting at him．But Keesh said nothing more．He wal ked away with his head raised, looking neither to the left nor the right…．—Based on a story by Jack London（1）How did Keesh’s father die？________A.He died of hun ger several years ago．B.He died whenhe tried to savea bear．C.He died in a fight with other warriors．D.He died duringa struggle witha bear．（2）Keesh showed his courage at the council meeting by________．plaining o f the unfair treat ment he and his mother received ．B.asking for more help from thechief．C.demanding a bigger igloo to live in．D.quarreling with the hunters angrily．（3）Where should the following missing words be filled？________A.Between the 4paragraph a nd the 5 par agraph．B.Between the 3paragraph and the 4 paragraph．C.Before the lastparagraph．D.Between the 6paragraph and the 7 paragraph．（4）From the passage we can infer________．A.Keesh will kill another bear．B.Keesh makes up his mind to leave his village forC.Keesh will prove his words bygoing out to hunD.Keesh will take revenge （报复） on his villaever．t．ger later．2.

I live in the land of Disney, Hollywood and year-round sun．You may think People in such an attractive, fun-filled place are happier than others．If so you have some mistaken ideas about the nature of happiness．Many intelligent people still think fun equals happiness．The truth is that fun and happiness have little or nothingin common．Fun is what we experience during an act．Happiness is what we experience after an act．It is a deep, long-lasting emotion．Going to an amusement park or a ball game, watching a movie or television are fun activities that help us relax, temporally forget our problems and maybe even laugh．But they do not bring happiness, because their positive effects end when the fun ends．I have often thought that if Hollywood stars have a role to play, it is to teach us that happiness has nothing to do with fun．They have constant access to exciting parties, fancy cars, expensive homes, everything that spells“happiness”But in memoir（回忆第9页 共20页 ◎ 第10页 共20页录） after memoir, they expose the unhappiness hidden beneath all their fun: depression, alcoholism, drug addictio n, broken marriages and loneliness ．Ask a bachelor why he resists marriage even though he finds dating to be less and less satisfying ．If he is honest, he will tell you that he is afraid of making a commitment （承诺）．For commitment is in fact quite painful ．The single life is filled with fun, adventure and excitement ．Marriage has such moments, but they are not its most distinguishing features ．Similarly, couples that choose not to have children are deciding in favor of painless fun over painful happiness ．Th ey can dine out whenever they want and sleep as late as they want ．Couples with babies are lucky to get a whole ni ght’s sleep ．I don’t know any parent who would choose the word fun to describe raising children ．Understanding and accepting that true happiness has nothing to do with fun is one of the most liberating realizati ons we can ever come to ．It liberates time: now we can devote more hours to activities that can truly increase our h appiness ．It liberates money: buying that new car or those fancy clothes that will do nothing to increase our happin ess now seems pointless ．And it frees us from envy: we now understand that all those rich and famous people we w ere so sure are happy because they are always having so much fun actually may not be happy at all ．（1）What is the passage mainly about ？________A.Marriage and commitment ．B.Success and sa tisfaction ．C.Fun and happi ness ．D.Entertainmentand responsibili ty ．（2）The author probably agrees that________． A.fun creates lo ng-lasting satisfacti on ． B.long-standing fun ma y lead to happin ess ． C.fun provides e njoyment while pain leads to ha ppiness ． D.fun is short-lived while happ iness is long-lasting ．（3）What does the author think of marriage ？________ A.It ends in pain ．B.It means com mitment ．C.It affords great er fun ．D.It leads to raising children ．（4）If one gets the real meaning of happiness ，he________．A.won’t place to o much value on money ．B.will start a bus iness ．C.will seek for fr eedom.D.won’t devote himself to his fa mily ．4. Everyone knows you must exercise regularly to keep good health ．Indeed, staying physically fit is a big part of o ur culture, we consider （or rightly so ） that healthy people are attractive people ．Since most of us want to be attr active, there is no shortage of exercise clubs, training videos, magazines and books offering to help us stay physically fit ．Unfortunately, however, our culture doesn’t place the same emphasis （重视） on mental fitness ．Although we tend to like men and women with strong, healthy-looking bodies, we don’t have the same degree of respect or attraction for smart, educated, mentally healthy people ．This is a pity, because there are great rewards for people who have developed the ability to think well ． If your mind is well trained and flexible （灵活的）, you will be able to understand a great deal of what happens around you ．And if you are also well educated-that is, if you understand basic science, mathematics, music, art, literature, history and so on-you will find it much easier to make good decisions throughout your life ．Over the long run, this leads to a sense of control over your destiny （命运） and a much better life than otherwise （in another way ）．People who are poorly educated or who don’t think well-that is, people who are not mentally fit-see things differently ．Their world is controlled by mysterious, often malevolent （恶意的） forces ．Such people live within a system they will never master, forced to follow rules they will never understa nd ．Although it may not be obvious, most spend their lives being manipulated （控制） by others ．They are told what to do, what to think, how to spend their money, and what they should and shou ld not aspire （渴望） to in life ．In my opinion, if you want to live well, you must be able to use your mind well ．For this reason, I want you to be a ble to concentrate, to solve problems, to understand complex ideas, and to think clearly and quickly ．Such skills will make it easier for you to make informed decisions, understand current events, choose good friends, manage your m oney well, make wise long-term decisions and appreciate music, art and literature ．The key to developing such skills is to enjoy learning, and to have the ability and motivation to teach yourself ．（1）The writer of the passage feels disappointed that________．A.too little has b een done to hel p people to keep physically fit ．B.too much has been done to he lp people to kee p physically fit ．C.mentally healt hy people are no t as popular as p hysically healthy people ．D.physically heal thy people are n ot as popular as mentally healthypeople ．（2）The underlined word“this”in the 3rd paragraph means________． A.the understan ding of a great d eal of what goes on around you ． B.the understan ding of basic sci ence and mathe matics ． C.being able to make good decis ions in life ． D.good training i n body and min d ．（3）The writer of this passage thinks those who are not mentally fit________． A.live a poor an d mysterious life . B.can’t control o ver their life ． C.often do what others do. D.enjoy being fo oled and ruled ．（4）The best title of the passage will most probably be________．A.Train Your Bod y.B.Think Hard an d Work Hard ．C.Make Informe d Decisions.D.Train Your Min d ．第二节（共1小题；每小题10分，满分10分）选项中有两项为多余选项。

Why do I volunteer with Big brothers/Big sisters of America? I have many reasons ．Perhaps the biggest reason i第7页共20页◎第8页共20页s that people once volunteered to help me．Years ago, I was on the other side of the table．I was lonely and I felt lost．It’s a little embarrassing to talk about i t now, but whatever the right direction in life was, I was going the opposite way．More than once, I found myself on the wrong path．If someone hadn’t stepped in when he did, I probably wouldn’t even be here now．I’d rather be in a prison or somewhere a lot smaller and deeper．I’ve seen the work that big brothers/sisters have been doing all over the country and I’m pleased to be part of it．I ’ve never done anything that made me prouder than my volunteer work．Big brothers and sisters helped me get ov er sadness and depression as soon as possible．Then, if I can help anyone like they helped me, I am willing to serve f or as long as they will have me serve them．There are no words to describe the joy I get from helping somebody tur n their life around．Every time I think that that’s me now, I’m proud and happy．Volunteering is how I want to leave my mark on the world．I recommend volunteering work to everybody, especi ally to somebody who isn’t sure where they are going in life．Helping someone find their path is often the best way to find yours．Be a volunteer, and you will find your purpose in life．（1）What’s the main reason why the writer volunteers？________A.He has a lot of free time．B.He is lonely and wants to be with others．C.He wants others to know he isa good man．D.He is grateful for what volunteers once did forhim．（2）It is implied in Paragraph3 that the writer________．A.is eager to hel p others．B.often feels sadand depressed．C.hopes he willbe helped at anytime．D.travels aroundthe country to help others．（3）We can infer from the passage that the writer probably________．A.spent some da ys in prison．B.didn’t know his purpose in life．C.is dissatisfiedwith his life．D.doesn’t live ameaningful life．（4）What is the writer’s purpose in writing this passage？________A.To share his pa st with us．B.to ask for some volunteer work．C.To encourageus to enjoy our life．D.To call on us todo volunteer work．2. Around the world there are some festivals that for some of us may sound bizarre．In England they celebrate the rolling cheese race, which occurs every year during the last Monday in May．This fe stival’s characteristic is a contest where an official rolls cheese down a steep hill and festival-goers go chasing after it．The winner is the first one to reach and catch the cheese．Another festival celebrated in England is the world championship of grimaces （鬼脸）．It is a celebration that dates back to 1297 and is celebrated during the month of September．The task is to pe rform the best grimace using anything you can to win．The worldwide championship of wife lifting is celebrated in Finland．The game is based on Viking traditions wher e a man should carry away his neighbor’s wife．According to the rules, any woman above 17 is considered as a wife, so if you are within this age, take care while visiting this country during the month of July．Many of you have watched Pirates of the Caribbean and have known something about pirates．The 19 of Sept ember has been declared worldwide as the day to talk like a pirate．Plenty of people have celebrated it thanks to th e publicity （宣传） on the Internet． First staged in 1998, the Boryeong Mud Festival is an attraction that pulls more than a million visitors to the South Korean City．As you all know, the town is said to be rich in minerals, so there is no shortage of mud．Mud is trucke d onto Daecheon Beach for tourists and locals to enjoy the festival to their best．The Monkey Buffet Festival is held in Thailand to develop tourism．It’s an unusual feast held for about 600 monke ys．The Monkey Buffet Festival is held in honor of the Hindu gods Ram and Hanuman and involves 3, 000 kilograms of vegetables and fruits being laid out for monkeys to stuff themselves．（1）What does the underlined word“bizarre”in Paragraph1 probably mean？________A.Dangerous B．C.terrible D．（2）If a participant wants to win in the rolling cheese race，he/she should________．A.roll as much cheese down thehill as possible．B.find the largest piece of cheese rolling downhill．C.perform the best grimace when chasing the cheese．D.be the first one to catch the cheese rolling downhill．（3）According to the writer，a girl above 17 should be careful when enjoying________．A.the worldwidechampionship of wife lifting．B.the world championship of grimaces．C.the BoryeongMud Festival．D.the Monkey Buffet Festival．3. Once there was an 11-year-old boy who went fishing with his father in the middle of a New Hampshire lake．On the day before bass （巴斯鱼） season opened, they were fishing early in the evening, catching other fish with worms．Then the boy tied on a small silver lure （鱼饵） and put it into the lake．Suddenly he felt that something very big pulling on the lure．His father watched with admiration as the boy skillfully brought the fish beside the bank．Finally he lifted the tired fish from the water．It w as the largest one he had ever seen, but it was a bass．The boy and his father looked at the big fish．The father lit a match and looked at his watch．It was 10 p．m．-two hours before the season opened．He looked at the fish, then at the boy．“You’ll have to put it back, son, ”he sa id．“Dad!”cried the boy．“There will be other fish, ”said his father．“Not as big as this one, ”cried the boy．He looke d around the lake．No other fishermen or boats were in sight in the moonlight．He looked again at his father．Even though no one had seen them, nor could anyone ever know what time he had caught the fish, the boy could tell from his father’s voice that the decision couldn’t be changed．He threw the huge bass into the black water．Th e big fish disappeared．The boy thought that he would never again see such a big fish．That was 34 years ago．Today the boy is a successful architect in New York City．He often takes his own son and daughters to fish at the same place．And he was right．He has never again caught such a large fish as the one he got that night long ago．But he does see that same fish…again and again…every time he has an ethical （道德的） decision to make．For, as his father had taught him, ethics are simple matters of right and wrong．It is only th e practice of ethics that is difficult．（1）What happened when the big fish turned out to be a bass？________A.The boy and his father discussed what to do witB.The boy threwthe bass back into the water williC.The father lit amatch in order to check the timeD.They worriedother fishermenmay discover wh第9页 共20页 ◎ 第10页 共20页h the big fish ． ngly ． ．at they had don e ．（2）From the text we know that the father________．A.didn’t love his son.B.always disagre ed with his son ．C.disliked the hu ge fish.D.was firm and s tubborn ．（3）How did the boy feel when the huge bass was thrown into the water ？________A.Excited ．B.Embarrassed ．C.Disappointed ．D.Annoyed ．（4）The successful architect went fishing with his children at the same place because________． A.they might cat ch a big fish ther e ． B.he was taught an important les son there ． C.it was a most popular fishing s pot.

Michael Fish may soon be replaced as a weather forecaster by the shark （鲨鱼）．Research by a British biology student suggests that sharks could be used to predict storms ．Lauren Smith, 24, is cl ose to completing her study on shark’s ability to sense pressure ．If her studies prove the theory, scientists may be a ble to monitor the behavior of sharks to predict bad weather ．Miss Smith had previously studied the behavior of lemon sharks in the Bahamas ．She then used their close relatives, lesser spotted dogfish, for further research at Aberdeen University ． Her work —thought to be the first of its kind to test the pressure theory —-resulted from the observation that juvenile blacktip sharks off Florida moved into deeper water ahead of a violent st orm in 2001．Miss Smith said: “I’ve always been crazy about traveling and diving and this led me to an interest in sharks ．” “I was delighted to have been able to research in the area for my degree ．I know there’s so much more we need t o understand —-but it certainly opens the way to more research ．”It has been discovered that a shark senses pressure using hair cells in its balance system ． At the Bimini Shark Lab in the Bahamas, Miss Smith fixed hi-tech sensors to sharks to record pressure and temperature, while also tracking them using GPS （Global Positioning System ） technology ．In Aberdeen, she was able to study the effects of tidal （潮汐的） and temperature changes on dogfish —-none of which were harmed ．She also used a special lab which can mimic （模拟） oceanic pressure changes caused by weather fronts ．She is due to complete her study and graduate later this year ．She says she will be looking for a job which will giv e her the chance to enrich her experience of shark research ．（1）The passage is most probably taken from________． A.a short-story collection ． B.a popular scie nce magazine ． C.a research pap er ． D.a personal diary ．（2）What do we learn from the first four paragraphs of the passage ？________ A.Sharks may be used to predict bad weather ． B.Sharks’behavi or can be contro lled ． C.Michael Fish is not fit for his jo b ．uren Smith will become a weather forecaste r ．（3）Lauren Smith conducted her research by________．A.removing hair cells from a shar k’s balance syste m ．B.measuring the air pressure of weather fronts ．C.recording shar ks’body tempera ture ．D.monitoring sh arks’reaction to weather change s ．（4）What is the passage mainly about ？________A.A popular way of forecasting w eather ．B.A new researc h effort in predic ting storms ．C.Biologists’inter est in the secret s of sharks ．uren Smith’s devotion to scie ntific research ． V.单词拼写（共10小题；每小题10分，满分10分）1.

I use Duolingo to practice Spanish and German. In the app, you can access resources such as Duolingo Stories, which can allow you to check your comprehension skills as you go. I also subscribe to Premium for $10 per month which includes an ad-free experience and downloadable lessons.MemriseOne of my favorite parts of Memrise is its short videos about how real locals express different phrases in conversation. A few lessons are available for free daily, but the full program is accessible if you subscribe to Memrise Pro. There are three plans—one month for $9, a year for $30 or three months for $19.BusuuWhen you sign up for Busuu, you select the language you want to learn, and the app helps you determine how advanced you are with it and why you want to learn it, and to what level. From there, you set a daily study goal. Premium costs about $6 per month for a year.LiricaIf you listen to any song enough, you'll learn all the words through repetition, even if they're in a different language. But how do you figure out what they mean? This is where Lirica comes in. This app is unique in how it approaches teaching Spanish. Instead of traditional teaching methods for learning a language, Lirica uses popular music by Latin artists to help you learn the Spanish language and grammar. Lirica has a one-week free trial and then it's about $4 per month.1. Which app is best for learning multiple languages at a time?A. Lirica.B. Busuu.C. Memrise.D. Duolingo.2.

How does the power factory produce electricity?A. By using oil．B. By using coal．C. By usingwind．D. By using waste．5. What' s Ingels' dream according to the passage?A. To make more tall buildings in different big cities．B. To help more skiers to ski in high mountains．C. There will be more green power factories in the world．D. More and more people will ski in the power factory．6. Where do the skiers ski in the power factory?A. On man-made snow．B. On man-made ice．C. On plastic grass．D. On real sand．7. The underlined part “it might be all 'downhill' from here" means that________.A. they will soon reach their final goalB. they will soon draw many visitorsC. they will produce more electricityD. they have difficulties reaching the goalCThe race skywards began inAmerica. In the late1800s, industrialization had driven urban populations and land prices up, making tall buildings increasingly cost-effective, according to Carol Willis, director of theSkyscraperMuseuminNew York, “The very first tall buildings were office buildings that concentrated a work force, piled one on top of the other in order to make business very efficient, ”she says.Like all major changes in architecture, the trend wasunderpinnedby engineering. The development of steel framework, which could be used instead of load-bearing stones, made it easier and cheaper to build tall. The coming of the elevator, meanwhile, made living on higher floors far more convenient.Though similar in shape, today's skyscrapers (摩天大楼) look little like those built in the first half of the 20thcentury. This is mostly thanks to architecture's next major technological shift：the curtain wall.Postwar developments in manufacturing meant that huge panes of glass could be produced quickly and uniformly, and glass windows soon became the front of choice for high-rises. As well as allowing for greater floor space and more natural light, glass exteriors (外部) help. buildings resist greater windloads.There are now 191 completed skyscrapers that are at least 300 meters tall. But that doesn't mean our cities will grow taller indefinitely. While each additional story adds sellable floor space, construction costs also rise. All buildings reach a point where adding an extra floor will cost more money than it brings.“Every city wants to have this landmark that gives that sense of distinct culture, ”but it also needs places for people to live and work in urban settings“without the city sprawling (无序扩张), ”explains Hong Kong architect Simon Chan.The next big challenge facing architects goes beyond height：At a time when buildings and their constructionaccount for more than a third of the world's energy consumption and contribute about 40% of greenhouse gas emissions(排放), there are new costs to consider.Whether it's employing more energy-efficient materials, encouraging natural air or using buildings themselves to generate solar or wind energy, reducing carbon emissions is the new frontier for many skyscraper architects.8. What does the underlined word“underpinned” in paragraph 2 probably mean?A. Created.B. Prepared.C. Suggested.D. Supported.9. What made living on higher floors much more convenient?A. The development of steel framework.B. Load-bearing stones.C. The use of the elevator.D. The curtain wall.10. What can we know from paragraph 5?A. Our cities will grow taller definitely.B. All skyscrapers are at least 300 meters tall.C. Construction cost rises as the stories increase.D. The profit for builders will be greater as the building becomes higher.11. What's the next big challenge facing architects?A. How to build the greenest building.B. How to build the strongest building.C. How to build the tallest building in the world.D. How to build the most comfortable building.DWhile the start of a new school year is always exciting, this year was even more so for some elementary school students inAuckland,New Zealand. They became the world’s first kids to be “taught” by a digital teacher.Before you start imagining a human-like robot walking around the classroom, Will is just an avatar that appears on the student’s desktop, or smartphone screen, when ordered to come.The autonomous animation platform has been modeled after the human brain and nervous system, allowing it to show human-like behavior. The digital teacher is assigned to teach Vector’s “Be sustainable with energy”— a free program forAucklandelementary schools.Just like the humans it replaced, Will is able to instantly react to the students’ responses to the topic. Thanksto a webcam and microphone, the avatar not only responds to questions the kids may have, but also picks up non-verbal cues. For instance, if a student smiles at Will, he responds by smiling back. This two-way interaction not only helps attract the students’ attention, but also allows the program’s developers to monitor their engagement, and make changes if needed.Nikhil Ravishankar believes that Will-like avatars could be a novel way to catch the attention of the next generation. He says, “I have a lot of hope in this technology as a means to deliver cost-effective, rich, educational experience in the future.”The program, in place since August 2018, has been a great success thus far. Ravishankar says, “ What was fascinating to me was the reaction of the children to Will. The way they look at the world is so creative and different, and Will really captured their attention.” However, regardless of how popular it becomes, Will is unlikely to replace human educators any time soon.12. What was special for some elementary school students inAuckland?A. A digital teacher taught them.B. They first saw something digital.C. This was the start of a new school year.D. They could get close to smartphone screen.13. What is the benefit of this two-way interaction?A. It can smile back.B. It can use microphone.C. It can talk any topic for free.D. It can change if necessary.14. What’s Ravishankar’s attitude to Will’s replacing Human educators soon?A. Optimistic.B. Doubtful.C. Unclear.D. Disapproving.15. What might be the best title for the passage?A. New High-tech Contributes to EducationB. The World’s First Digital Teacher Appears in Classroom.C. The World’s First Digital Teacher, a Help to StudentsD.New ZealandWill Replace Teachers in Classrooms第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10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。

2019-2020学年上海市杨浦高级中学高三英语上学期期末考试试题及答案第一部分阅读（共两节，满分40分）第一节（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分）阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项AIf you had the opportunity to live forever, would you take it? Keeping your body alive indefinitely still seems like an impossibility, but some scientists think that digital technology may have the answer: creating a digital copy of your “self” and keeping it “alive” online long after your physical body has ceased to function.In effect, the proposal is to clone a person electronically. Unlike the familiar physical clones — children that have identical features as their parents, but that are completely separate organisms with a separate life — your electronic clone would believe itself to be you. How might this be possible? The first step would be to mapthe brain.How? One plan relies on the development of nanotechnology (纳米技术). Ray Kurzweil — one of the kings of artificial intelligence — predicts that within two or three decades we will have nano transmitters that can be put into the bloodstream. Inthe capillaries (毛细血管) of the brain, they would line up alongside the neurons and detect the details of the cerebral (大脑的) electronic activity. They would be able to send that information to a receiver inside a special helmet, so there would be no need for any wires sticking out of the head.As a further step, Ray Kurzweil also imagines the nano transmitters being able to connect you to a world of virtual reality on the Internet, similar to what was shown in the film “Matrix”. With the nano transmitters in place, by thought alone, you could log on to the Internet and instead of the pictures coming up on your screen, they would play inside your mind. Rather than send your friends e-mails you would agree to meet up on some virtual tropical beach.Some peoplebelieve that they can enjoy life after death. But why wait for that when you could have a shot of nanobots (纳米机器人) and upload your brain onto the Internet and live forever as a virtual surfer?One snag: to exist on the net you will have to have your neural network parked on the computer of a web-hosting company. These companies want real money in real bank accounts every year or they will wipe your bit of the hard disc and sell the space to someone else. With your body six feet underground how will you pay?1. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?A. Nano transmitters can help map the human brain.B. Electronic clones recreate the original human body.C. Electronic clones may put their physical selves into movies.D. Nano transmitters use a helmet to detect the cerebral activities.2. What is the author’s attitude towards electronic clones?A. Optimistic and careful.B. Interested and unconvinced.C. Excited and confused.D. Assured and critical.3.

Though the androids have proved useful at performing ordinary tasks, they are not ready for the greatest time. At least that appears to be the case atJapan’s Henn-na Hotel chain where over half of the robot staff are being replaced by humans.The first location of the unique hotel opened in July 2015 was atNagasaki’s Huis Ten Bosch Theme Park. The hotel’s owner, Hideo Sawada, promised the hotel to be managed primarily by robots. Guests were greeted and checked-in by a dinosaur robot, while a cute android called Churi, placed inside each room, provided information about attractions. Not surprisingly, the lodging, recognized in 2016 as the world’s first robot-staffed hotel by Guinness World Records, drew in curious visitors from all around the world.But as the years have passed, the hotel’s main draw is becoming less novel and more unsatisfactory. Also as the robots are “aging”, they are costing more to repair. Among the 283 androids being replaced are the chain’s two dinosaur receptionists. In addition to scaring young guests, they are also unable to photocopy guests’ passports, forcing human employees to step in each time. Also out are the cute Churi robots, which annoyed guests by interrupting their conversations. For example, one guest told The Wall Street Journal that Churi mistook his snoring for a command and kept asking him to repeat his request all night.Sawada told The Wall Street Journal, “When you actually use robots you realize there are places where they aren’t needed—or just annoy people.” While Sawada may be cutting back on his use of androids, the recently-opened Smart LYZ Hotel and the Fly Zoo Hotel inChina, are run entirely by robots, with not a human in sight. Whether the employees have more competence than those “hired” by the Henn-na Hotel chain remains to be seen.4. What makesJapan’s Henn-na Hotel unique?A. Its robot employees.B. Its advanced equipment.C. Its convenient location.D. Its successful management.5. What is the author’s purpose with the example in paragraph 3?A. To entertain readers.B. To prove Churi’s drawback.C. To introduce Churi’s functions.D. To persuade people not to book the hotel.6. What does the owner ofJapan’s Henn-na Hotel think of his robot staff now?A. Attractive.B. Costly.C. Pioneering.D. Disappointing.7. What is the best title for the text?A. Robots Are Taking Over the World.B. The Boom of Robots-staffed Hotel.C. Robot Staff Are Fired For No Competence.D. The First Robots-staffed Hotel Won Guinness World Record.CSome years ago a young man applied to a large United States optical firm for a job as a lens designer. He apologized for lack of training, but on announcing that he owned two copies of the classic Conrady's Applied Optics and Optical Design, one for his office and a second for his bedside table, he was hired on the spot. Perhaps the story will be repeated some day with Buchdahl's Introduction to Hamiltonian Optics as a similar certificate of qualification.Hamiltonian theory describes with powerful generality the overall properties of optical systems considered as ‘black boxes’, although it does not describe the detailed structure needed to construct the systems and achieve these properties. Buchdahl's book is therefore on the subject of geometrical optics, but it is not about how to design lenses. It is, however a compact comprehensive account of the fundamentals of the theory written with the lens designer's needs very much in mind. Every lens designer worth his salt has at some time in his career attempted to apply the broad concepts of Hamiltonian optics to the solutions of practical problems. Success has been sufficiently rare that the theory, as such, has made little direct contribution to techniques for optical instrument design. The failures have been frustrating because of the obvious fundamental power of the theory and because of its conceptual elegance. The indirect effects have been large, however, both in contributing to an understanding of fundamental principles that govern the overall behavior of optical systems and in pointing theway to other, more practical, theoretical approaches.Buchdahl approaches the subject not only as a capable mathematical physicist, but as one who with a knowledge of practical optics has made a significant contribution to geometrical optical theory. Buchdahl's approach has, over the last decade, had a major impact on modern lens design with computers. Thus, he brings to this exposition of Hamiltonian optics a familiarity with practical optics not usually found in authors on this subject.The author claims his book to be non-mathematical, and indeed it might be so viewed by a professional mathematician. From the point of view of many physicists and engineers, it will appear to be quite mathematical. Moreover, this is a tightly written book. The subject matter is developed with precision, and the author expects the reader, at very point, to be master of the preceding exposition.8. Hamiltonian theory met with failures as a result of ______.A. newer finding related to the wave particle nature of lightB. very complicated concepts too difficult to understand by most lens designersC. too much mathematical detail in the theoryD. not enough practical information offered by the theory to allow for use by lens crafters9. The author of this passage implies that Introduction to Hamiltonian Optics is necessary to ______.A. the students who are major in mathematical geometryB. those who want to grasp the basic principles of optical systemsC. the lens designers who look for instructions on practical designsD. those who are interested in physics10. The article points out that the great benefits of Hamiltonian optics have been found is ______.A. indirect ways of learning mathematicsB. a fundamental power within the theoryC. the conceptual elegance of the theoryD. the practical applications of the theory in finding new approaches to old problems11. This passage is probably excerpted from ______.A. a review of a bookB. a chemistry textbookC. an optician's essayD. a general science textDThe British poet Matthew Byrne moved to Beijing in 2013 and felt that the capital city's poetry scene was lacking．His obsession（痴迷）for starting poetryevents led to the foundation of the Spittoon Collective in May2015．“At that time，the literary activity in Beijing was The Bookworm based in Sanlitun，”Byrne says．While some of Beijing's literary institutions would go on to close in the fall of 2019，Spittoon would continue to grow as a community for poets and writers，as well as musicians and others in the creative scene．Byrne describes the Spittoon Collective as a platform for people to share ideas，from literary works to different forms of art，with projects developing from the creative energy within the community．Spittoon originally started as a poetry night at the Mado Bar in Dongcheng District 's Baochao Hutong．Byrne says，“In Beijing，you have these wonderful hutongs，ancient structures where you can walk down and visit cool bars，so I thought it would be good to have a poetry event as it seemed like poetry belonged naturally to this area．”He adds，“The objective now is to discover Chinese voices and broadcast them to the rest of the world．We create a kindof theme park-like atmosphere where every Thursday is occupied by a different literary style or art form．”The readings would mainly be in English，but with an international community，a new section called“Poetry-in-Translation”was started，which featured works in Chinese，French，Arabic，Russian，Spanish and other languages．Joining organized activities like Spittoon can be a major help for those caught up in a boring life．And it's especially important for the people who have moved to China as they need to buildnew relationships while living in a different country．12. What can we know about the Spittoon Collective?A. It was closed in 2019．B. It was set up in 2013 in Beijing．C. It's popular with literature lovers．D. It's a community just for foreigners．13. Why did Byrne start the Spittoon Collective in Baochao Hutong?A. To attract students' love of poetry．B. To expandChina's literature globally．C. To makeBeijing's hutongs famous．D. To combine poetry with the hutong．14. What effect would the Spittoon Collective have on Chinese culture?A. Beneficial．B. Negative．C. Challenging．D. Controversial．15. What is the author's attitude to the Spittoon Collective?A. Unclear．B. Intolerant．C. Doubtful．D. Favorable．第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10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。

People who drink alcohol earn more at their jobs than non﹣drinkers, according to a US study that highlighted "social capital（社交资本）"gained from drinking．The study concluded that drinkers earn ten to fourteen percent more than ________, and that men who drink socially bring home an additional seven percent in pay．"Social drinking builds social capital, " said Edward Stringham, an economics professor, "Social drinkers are outgoing, building relationships, and keeping in contacts, which results in bigger paychecks．"The researchers said the most likely explanation is that drinkers have a wider range of social contacts that help provide better job and business opportunities．"Drinkers may be able to socialize more with clients and co﹣workers, giving drinkers an advantage in important relationships． Drinking may also provide individuals with opportunities to learn people, business, and social skills．"They also said these conclusions provide arguments against policies aimed at controlling alcohol use in university and public places．"Not only do anti﹣alcohol policies reduce drinkers' fun, but they may also decrease earnings, " the study said, "One of the consequences of alcohol restrictions is that they push drinking into private behavior． By preventing people from drinking in public, anti﹣alcohol policies ignores one of the most important aspects of drinking: increased social capital．"The researchers found some differences in the economic effects of drinking among men and women． They concluded that men who drink earn ten percent more than non﹣drinkers and women drinkers earn fourteen percent more than non﹣drinkers．However, unlike men, who get a seven percent income increase from drinking inbars, women drinkers who visit bars frequently do not show higher earnings than those who do not visit bars．（1）The underlined word "________" in paragraph two is closest in meaning to________．A pay checkersB non﹣drinkersC co﹣workersD women drinkers．（2）What's NOT the consequence of anti﹣alcohol policy？________A More people drink in private．B There is less alcohol inuniversities． C Drinkers earn more because they spend less ondrinking． D Drinkers get less fun from drinking．．（3）What can we infer from the result of the study？________A To build social capital， you have no choice but to drink．B Drinking is a good and common way to increase social capital．C Drinkers may be provided more opportunities．D Drinkers build wider social contacts．5.

While income worry is a rather common problem of the aged, loneliness is another problem that aged parents may face． Of all the reasons that explain their loneliness, a large geographical distance between parents and their children is the major one． This phenomenon is commonly known as "Empty Nest Syndrome"．In order to seek better chances outside their countries, many young people have gone abroad, leaving their parents behind with no clear idea of when they will returnhome． Their parents spend countless lonely days and nights, taking care of themselves, in the hope that someday their children will come back to stay with them． The fact that mostof these young people have gone to Europeanized or Americanized societies makes it unlikely that they will hold as tightly to the value of duty as they would have if they had not left their countries． Whatever the case, it has been noted that the values they hold do not necessarily match what they actually do． This geographical and cultural distance also prevents the grown﹣up children from providing response in time for their aged parents living by themselves．The situation in which grown﹣up children live far away from their aged parents has been described as "distant parent phenomenon", which is common both in developed countries and in developing countries． Our society has not yet been well prepared for "Empty Nest Syndrome"．（1）According to the passage， the loneliness of aged parents is mainly caused by________．A their earlier experience of feeling lonely B the unfavorable living conditions in their native countries C the common worry about their income D the geographical distance between parents and children．（2）Many young people have gone abroad， leaving their aged parents behind， to________．A live in the countries with more money B seek a better place for their agedparents C continue their studies abroad D realize their dreams in foreign countries．（3）If young people go abroad，________．A they do not hold to the value of duty at allB they can give some help to their parents back homeC they cannot do what they should for their parentsD they believe what they actually do is right．（4）From the last paragraph， we can infer that________．A the situations in the developed and developing countries are differentB "Empty Nest Syndrome" has arrived unexpectedly in our societyC children will become independent as soon as they go abroadD the aged parents are not fully prepared for "Empty Nest Syndrome"．Section CDirections： Complete the following passage by using the sentences in the box. Each sentence can only be used once. Note that there are two sentences more than you need.7. A． It can also be caused by the inappropriate use of fluoride drops or other fluoride supplements．B． It's evident that fluoride has negative effects on teeth， especially children's teeth．C． So you are right ﹣ fluoride can be poisonous if it is swallowed in very large quantities．D． If a deadly amount of fluoride is taken， immediate first﹣aid could save a life．E． That is why they should only have a tiny amount of fluoride toothpaste on their toothbrush．F． Fluoride toothpastes are advertised too extensively in TV commercials．I have heard that fluoride（氟化物）can help stop dental decay， but I recently read that it is poisonous． Which of these is true？ How can children use fluoride safely？This question is answered thanks to Dr Marcia M． Rich who practices general dentistry in Newholt． She is also a lecturer at the University and a writer for the monthly magazine Your Dentist Cares．My answer to the first question is to stress that fluoride works well and is safe when users follow instructions． Young children have a tendency to swallow toothpaste．（1）________ If this simple measure is taken， parents can be confident that children will be protected against tooth decay， and come to no harm．Almost all medicines can have a negative effect ﹣ or even be deadly ﹣ if they are not taken as directed．（2）________ It is for this reason that fluoride supplements can only be obtained on prescription from a doctor or dentist．Taking too much fluoride while teeth are growing can lead to a condition called dental fluorosis（氟中毒）． The most likely cause is the swallowing of fluoride toothpastes by young children．（3）________For example， when fluoride is already present in drinking water， the overconsumption of it can seldom be avoided． But don't be too worried，since fluoride overdoses are rare． In fact， I have never heard of any fatal incidents related to the fluoride poisoning．Scientific studies have shown that fluoride can help to prevent cavities（龋齿）as long as it is used correctly． But it is also true that if fluoride is abused， there is a risk of illness or even death in extreme cases．（4）________ A person who has swallowed a large amount of fluoride will probably start vomiting． If not， the patient should be given milk or antacid and taken to the nearest hospital for emergency treatment．第II卷（共55分）I.
