When Stephen Mills spotted a dusty old safe（保险箱） in a museum in Canada, he thought he'd try to crack the code（破解密码）, "just like in the movies "． But when he began turning the dial, ________For years, anyone who visited the Vermillion Heritage Museum in Alberta would have passed by a large, black metal box． Staff knew it had come from the long﹣gone Brunswick hotel and was donated to the museum in the 1990s, but its code and contents remained a mystery for decades ﹣ until Mills unexpectedly cracked the code．Mills, who lived in Fort McMurray, Alberta, was visiting the museum with his family last month over a holiday weekend． As they wandered around the exhibits with the museum guide, Tom Kibblewhite, they spotted the safe．Kibblewhite told the family what he told all other guests: the 900kg black box with a silver dial had remained closed for generations． For years, the safe has confused volunteers atthe museum． The manufacturer was unable to provide advice on how to open its thick door． A locksmith（锁匠） once suggested that years of inactivity might have slowed down the gears, making it inoperable． But Mills, who is a " mechanically﹣minded person ", asked whether he could give it a try． "Kibblewhite kept saying no one had opened it and that it was a mystery what was inside, " Mills said． "I thought this would be a great thing to do for a laugh for the kids． Maybe they can find some interesting historical things in it ﹣ like a time capsule．"After pressing his ear against the cool metal, he began spinning the dial． With numbers ranging from zero to 60, he turned clockwise（顺时针方向地） three times to 20, counter﹣clockwise two times to 40, and then clockwise one time to 60． He was astonished tohear a click． "I jumped up and told everyone I'm buying a lottery ticket（彩票）, " he said．（1）What does the underlined sentence in the first paragraph mean？________A He didn't think he would open the safe．B The museum trip was like a Hollywood film．C He didn't want to turn the dial in the beginning．D It was unbelievable for him to win a lottery ticket in the end．．（2）What do we know about the safe？________A The dial on the safe was broken．B It was a donation from a rich businessman．C It was one of the most valuable exhibits in the museum．D It has been long closed since it was brought to the museum．．（3）Why did Mills compare the safe to a time capsule？________A To tell people how fast time flies．B To remind visitors of the time limit．C To indicate the safe's special meaning．D To explain the content of the safe．．（4）What can we infer from the last paragraph？________A Mills won a prize for cracking the code．B Mills had plenty of luck to break the code．C Mills knew what the code was in advance．D Mills tried a dozen timesuntil he cracked the code．7. Pineapple is a kind of fruit that is rich in vitamins, enzymes and antioxidants（酶和抗氧化剂）． The nutritional content of canned pineapple is different from that of raw pineapple． According to United States Department of Agriculture （USDA）, canned pineapple is typically higher in calories and sugar． It also contains fewer vitamins and minerals． If you choose canned pineapple, try to get it with no added sugar or look for a variety that is canned in fruit juice instead of sweet liquid．Pineapple contains a great amount of vitamin C, a water﹣soluble antioxidant that fights cell damage． This makes vitamin C a helpful fighter against problems such as heart disease． Pineapple may help you keep standing tall and strong． One cup of raw pineapple pieces contains 2.6 mg of manganese, a mineral that's important to developing strong bones． A 1994 study suggested that manganese, along with other small amounts of minerals, may be helpful in preventing bones becoming weak and breaking easily in aged women．Pineapple can help reduce the risk of macular degeneration, a disease that affects the eyes as people age, due in part to its high amount of vitamin C and the antioxidants it contains． Like many other fruits and vegetables, pineapple contains dietary fiber, which is important and necessary for keeping you regular and in keeping your intestines（肠）healthy．"Because pineapple is a great meat tenderizer, eating too many can lead to the pain of the mouth, including the lips and tongue, " said San Diego﹣based nutritionist Flores． "But, it should disappear within a few hours．" But if the feeling continues, or if you experience breathing difficulties, you should seek medical help immediately, as you could have a pineapple allergy．Flores pointed out a possible negative to pineapple's high levels of vitamin C． "Because of the high amount of vitamin C that pineapple contains, eating large quantities may cause some serious problems, " she said． Eating undeveloped pineapple or drinking undeveloped pineapple juice is dangerous． Undeveloped pineapple is poisonous to humans and can lead to severe diarrhea（腹泻） and vomiting．（1）Considering nutrition， raw pineapple________．A is both higher in calories and sugarB has less advantage than other fruitsC has an advantage over canned pineappleD can be used in a variety of processed foods．（2）What can we learn about pineapple from the passage？________A It benefits people's health very much．B It can help people reduce the risk of cancer．C It likes to grow in wet lands and has low production．D It is popular among old people because of its sweetness．．（3）What's the result of eating too much pineapple？________A It can make the tongue unable to taste．B It can lead to increased blood pressure．C It can bring about an allergy to other fruits．D It can result in thepain of mouth and even allergic conditions．．（4）What is the author's purpose in writing the passage？________A To introduce nutrition facts of pineapple．B To show medical advantages of pineapple．C To encourage people to eat more pineapple．D To present health benefits and harm of pineapple．8. That untouched plate and look of disgust on your child's face at mealtime might be a sign of much bigger issues． Picky eating, even at moderate levels, is linked with psychiatric （精神疾病的） problems, including anxiety and depression in kids, according to a study in the journal Pediatrics． It found that the mental problems worsened as picky eating became more severe． The issue is serious enough that health care providers should intervene （干预）, the paper concludes．For parents, the issue can be a nightmare as children skip entire food groups like fruit and vegetables． "We need to do a better job of giving advice to these parents, " said Nancy Zucker, study co﹣author． "The first key message is that you are not to blame． The second key message is that it is more complicated than we think．"The study screened more than 1, 000 children aged 2 to 5, and found 20 percent were picky eaters． The researchers stress this goes beyond kids who just hate onions or have certain dislikes． More than 17 percent of kids were classified as moderate pickyeaters: These children had a very limited range of foods they would eat and they would not try anything else． About 3 percent were considered severe picky eaters: Their sensitivities to smell or taste were so strong that even eating outside of the home was difficult． As they get older, it could be hard for them to go out with friends or eat at school．Picky eaters are more sensitive to the smell of food, and have a stronger sense of disgust than other kids, the study found． This ability to experience the world more intensely may also make it harder for them to control their emotions or focus, the researchers suggest． "These are just sensitive kids, they see things more intently （专注地）, they feel things more deeply and that is both in their own internal experience and the world around them． So they have more vulnerabilities （脆弱性） to experience taste more vividly, but also more emotions more strongly, " Zucker said．The researchers also note that the term picky eating may now be obsolete （过时的）． They suggest that the condition might be better described as avoidant/restrictive food intake disorder （ARFID）．（1）The study tends to indicate that mild picky eating________．A doesn't affect kids'health or lessonsB may not be caused by mentalproblems C is unavoidable to become more severe D is also harmful and should be treated timely．（2）According to Nancy Zucker， parents________．A should have done more for their kidsB should give more advice to theirkids C must have their kids eat more fruit and vegetables D don't need to feel guilty about their kids'picky eating．（3）What can we know from the passage？________A Picky eaters are weaker and not very determined．B Picky eaters can't control their emotions or behaviours．C Picky eaters are more sensitive to the world aroundthem． D Picky eating affects a person's contact with others seriously．．（4）Why do the researchers tend to say "ARFID" instead of "picky eating"？________A Picky eating is actually a disease， not a habit．B ARFID is a much more technical expression．C The term picky eating has been used for too long．D The term picky eating tends to hurt kids'feelings．第二节（共 5 小题；每小题 2 分，满分 10 分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项．选项中有两项为多余选项．9. Hotels in Shanghai are requested to stop offering disposable toiletries （一次性洗漱用品）unless customers ask， in order to make efforts to reduce waste and pursue （追求） green development．（1）_______．The move is stated in a set of regulations on garbage sorting and recycling that went into effect in Shanghai．Under the new regulations， most household plastic wastes should be sorted and recycled． The city also encourages individuals and companies to reduce their use of disposable plastic products． Kunlun Jing An hotel is one of those that answered the government call that "not offering disposable toiletries unless asked"．（2）_______． "Shanghai is taking a lead in the country to fight against plastic waste，" said Gerd Knaust， general manager of Kunlun Jing An hotel． "Hotels should make contributions to sorting and recycling garbage．（3）_______．"（4）_______． "It is a good thing to reduce waste in daily life，" said Zhang Wei， 40， from east China's Shandong Province who checked in the hotel for a business trip． He brought a reusable toothbrush after being informed by the hotel in advance．At least 6.5 million sets of disposable toiletries are said to be used every day if the occupancy rate is 50 percent for the 13 to 15 million hotel rooms across China， said Du Liangliang of the Hotel Business Unit of Ctrip， China's leading online travel agency． "（5）_______，" Du said．第三部分语言知识运用（共两节，满分 45 分）第一节（共 20 小题；每小题 1.5 分，满分30 分）10.

Reading Comprehension (60 points)Directions：There are four reading passages in this part Each passageis followed by five questions. For each question there arefour suggested answers marked A, B, C and D. Choose one best answer and blacken the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.Passage OneResearchers have found that REM (rapid eye movement) sleep is important to human beings. This type of sleepgenerally occurs four or five times during one night of sleeplasting five minutes to forty minutes for each occurrence.The deeper a person’s sleep becomes, the longer the periods of rapid eye movement.There are physical charges in the body to show that aperson has changed from NREM (non-rapid eye movement) to REM sleep. Breathing becomes faster, the heart rate increases,and, as the name implies, the eyes begin to move quickly.Accompanying these physical changes in the body is a very important characteristic of REM sleep. It is during REM sleepthat a person dreams.61. According to the passage, how often does REM sleep occur in one night?A. OnceB. TwiceC. Four of five timesD. Forty times62.

Which of the following is the best title of thearticle?A. REM SleepB. Two Types of SleepC. SleepersD. What Happens to SleepersPassage TwoThe Mother Goose Stories, so well known to children all over the word, are commonly said to have been written by a little old woman for her grandchildren. According to some people, she lived in Boston, and her real name was ElizabethVergoose. Her son-in-law, a printer named Thomas Fleet, was supposed to have published the famous stories and poems forsmall children in 1719. However, no copy of this book hasever been found, and most scholars doubt the truth of this story—and doubt, moreover, that Mother Goose was ever a real person. They point out that the name is a direct translationof the French “Mere I’ Oye.” In 1697 the Frenchman Charles Perrault published the first book in which this name was used.The collection contains eight tales, including “Sleeping Beauty,”“Cinderella,” and “Puss in Boots.” But Perrault did not originate these stories; they were already quitepopular in his day, and he only collected them.66. What is suppssed to have happened in 1719?Elizabeth Vergoose wrote the first Mother Goose Stories.Thomas Fleet published the Mother Goose Stories.The Mother Goose Stories were translated into French.Charles Perrault published the first Mother Goose Stories.67. Most scholars consider Mother Goose to be _________.A. a real personB. a book written by a little old womanC. a collection by Elizabeth VergooseD. a translationfrom French68. When Perrault published the first book in 1679,_______.no story of the book had been known to peoplesome stories of the book were already well knownfew people were interested in the stories of the bookstories like “Sleeping Beauty” and “Cinderella”　became popular69. The name used in the first book published in 1679 is supposed to have been _______.A. Mother GooseB. Mere I’ OyeC. Elizabeth VergooseD. Charles Perrault70. On the basis of this passage, what may be concluded about the real origin of stories “Sleeping Beauty” and “Cinderella”？They were invented by Elizabeth Vergoose.They were invented by Thomas Fleet.They were invented by Charles Perrault.Their writers are unknown.Passage ThreeBanks are not ordinarily prepared to pay out all accounts;they rely on depositors (储户) not to demand payment all at the same time. If depositors should come to fear that a bankis not safe, that it cannot pay off all its depositors, thenthat fear might cause all the depositors to appear on thesame day. If they did, the bank could not pay all accounts. However, if they did not all appear at once, then there would always be enough money to pay those who wanted their money when they wanted it. Mrs. Elsie Vaught has told us of aterrifying bank run that she experienced. One day in Decemberof 1925 several banks failed to open in a city where Mrs.Vaught lived. The other banks expected a run the next day,and so the officers of the bank in which Mrs Vaught worked asa teller had enough money on hand to pay off their depositors. The officers simply told the tellers to pay on demand. Thenext morning a crowd gathered in the bank and on the sidewalk outside. The length of the line made many think that the bank could not possibly pay off everyone. People began to push and then to fight for places near the tellers’ windows, The power of the panic atmosphere was such that two tellers,though they knew that the bank was quite all right and couldpay all depositors, drew their own money from the bank. Mrs Vaught says that she had difficulty keeping herself fromdoing the same.71. A bank run happens when _______.a bank is closed for one or more daystoo many depositors try to draw out their money at onetimethere is not enough money to pay all its depositors atone timetellers of a bank take their own money from the bank72. The tellers in Mrs. Vaught’s bank were told to________.explain why they could not pay out all accountspay out accounts as requestedmake the depositors believe that the bank was standpay out money as slowly as possible73. The main cause of a bank run is _______.A. loss of confidenceB. lack of moneyC. crowds of peopleD. inexperienced tellers74. Which of the following did Mrs. Vaught say?She know that the bank was not sound.She feared that too many depositors drawing their money would close the bank.She was not able to draw out her money.She was tempted to draw out her money.75. According to the passage, the actions of thedepositors of Mrs. Vaught’s bank were affected mainly by the _______.ease with which they could get their moneyconfidence that Mrs. Vaught showedfailure of several other banks to openconfidence shown by other depositors of the bankPassage FourOne of the greatest problems for those settlers inNebraska in the last quarter of the previous century was fuel.Little of the state was forested when the first settlersarrived and it is probable that by 1880, only about one-thirdof the originally forested area remained, down to a mere 1percent of the state’s 77,000 square miles. With wood and coal out of the question, and with fuel needed year-round forcooking, and during the harsh winter months for heating, some solution had to be found.Somewhat improbably, the buffalo provided the answer. Buffalo chips (干粪块) were found to burn evenly, hotly, and cleanly, with little smoke and interestingly, no odor, Soon, collecting them became a way of life for the settlers’　children who would pick them up on their way to and fromschool, or take part in competitions designed to counteracttheir natural reluctance. Even a young man, seeking toimpress the girl he wanted to marry, would arrive with alarge bag of chips rather than with a box of candy or a bunchof flowers.76. What is the main topic of this passage?The solu tion to the Nebraska settlers’ fuel problem.Life in Nebraska in the late ninteenth century.The imporance of the American buffalo.Deforestation in Nebraska in the late nineteenth century.77. Which of the following statements is NOT true?Nebraska was not a densely-forested state even before the settlers arrived.The children enjoyed collecting the buffalo chips.The children spent a lot of time collecting the chips.Buffalo chips were satisfactory as a fuel.78. The passage implies that buffalo chips were needed_______.A. in greater amounts in summerB. in greater amounts in winterC. only in summerD. only in winter79. Which of the following does the author not express surprise at?The children needed competitions to them.The buffalo chips gave off no smell.Buffalo chips were the answer to the settlers’ fuel problem.Young men took bags of buffalo chips to their girlfriends.80. What’s the best title of the passage?A. Early SettlersB. One Use of the Buffalo ChipsC. Nebraska’s ProblemsD. How Young Men Express Their Love for GirlsⅤ.
