You’ve located the country’s capital and one of Europe’s most beautiful cities: Madrid. This popular destination is considered a city of contrasts with its abundant historic sites, resting in the shadows of modern skyscrapers,HistoryThis city of over 3 million people is proud of Wes tern Europe’s largest royal palace, and some consider it to be Madrid’s most beautiful building.Inside the Royal Palace 2,800 rooms are decorated in glory with museum-quality furniture and artworks. Tourists can tour 50 of these large and splendid rooms.ArtThe Internationally respected Prado Museum is the largest and most impressive art gallery in Spain. Opened in 1819, it is filled with works of art that feature the world’s most comprehensive collection of Spanish paintings.ShoppingMadrid has some of Europe’s best shopping, and potential buyers love to look through the stores looking for bargains. But for 500 years, shoppers have gathered to an extremely large outdoor flea market known as the Rastro where they find nearly everything from antiques to CDs.EntertainmentNo trip to Madrid is complete without seeing a performance of Spain’s famous art form, flamenco. Every day, flamenco performers sing, dance or play the guitar in small cafes and grand theaters alike.FoodMadrid has a wide variety of restaurants, but because the Spanish typically eat late at about 9 or 10 p.m., it’s difficult to find good dinner food earlier. If you get hungry before then, the best solution is to try a tapas bar where light snacks are served. Be sure to try the jamon, a kind of dry-cured ham. Spain is famous for it.11.

What does the underlined word “tapas” in the last paragraph probably mean?A.It means something that people eat after dinner.B.It means some small plates of food before a main meal.C.It is a traditional food in Spain.D.It is food that helps people digest better.There’s nothing like a good night’s sleep — but what does that really mean? It turns out that the answer depends not only on your age, but also on your lifestyle. Some people are productive and happy with fewer hours of sleep, while others need more. Still, experts can determine guidelines that work for most people. The National Sleep Foundation researched the topic and gave new recommendations this week. The foundation acknowledge s that sleep needs will vary lifestyle and stress should be taken into consideration but their recommendations offer a general guideline. For example, teenagers (14-17 years old) need 8 —10 hours’ sleep every day.To create the recommendations, some sleep and medical experts reviewed 312 articles from journals published during the last decade. This is the first time that any professional organization has developed age-specific recommended sleep durations (时长) based on a systematic review of the world scientific literature.A lack of sleep can be linked to weight gain, because that causes an increase in appetite, according to the foundation. It can also have serious consequences (结果) on the brain. People who do not get enough sleep are at increased risk for depression (抑郁症), and can endanger others. Those that become sleepy while driving, for example, risk both their lives and the lives of those around them.Researchers also have found in the past that too much sleep can have negative effects. Low socioeconomic status and depression reportedly are significantly associated with longer sleep. However, experts nowadays find that research on oversleeping is still doubtful and needs more attention. Currently, there is no strong evidence that sleeping too much has health consequences. There is, however, laboratory evidence that short sleep durations of four to five hours have negative consequences. We need similar laboratory studies to determine whether long sleep durations result in physiological (生理的) changes that could lead to disease before we make any recommendations against sleep extension.16. Which is TRUE about sleeping time?A.The time you need for sleep is related to your personal situation.B.Experts’ guideline for sleeping t ime applies to all the people.C.The less you sleep, the more productive you are.D.The more you sleep, the more energetic you are.17. How did the National Sleeping Foundation do the research?A.By interviewing different people. B.By reading lots of articles.C.By consulting (咨询) other experts. D.By doing systematic experiments.18. The research shows that people without enough sleep will _________.A.lose some weight B.eat more foodC.dream during their sleep D.drive faster than usual19. From Paragraph 4, we can learn that _________.A.too much sleep may result in social changesB.researchers now agree with those in the pastC.more research on oversleeping is neededD.research on oversleeping is quite persuasive (有说服力的)20. From which section of a newspaper is the passage most probably taken?A.Health. B.Psychology C.Sport. D.Education.It’s no secret now that the more time we spend on social media, the more we feel dissatisfied with ourselves. We tend to compare ourselves to influences and celebrities- so it’s easy to understand how that can affect our confidence.But, how often have you found yourself comparing your life to your friends? Engaging with social media shared by our friends can be more damaging than looking at content shared by celebrities, new research has found.The study looking at how social media affects body image found that any social media engagement was significantly associated with lower “appearance satisfaction”. Additionally, it found that engaging with content posted by people the participants knew was more than twice as damaging as looking at content posted by strangers, including celebrities.Viren Swami, Professor of Social Psychology at Anglia Ruskin University, believes this is partly because we know it’s hard to attain the lives of celebrities or influences, but when we’re comparing ourselves to our friends, it feels like we should- or could-live the way they do.“One possible explanation is that people may perceive a post showing appearance as being m uch more attainable if it comes from someone they know, adding expectation or pressure on the person engaging in the post, ” he said. “At the same time, people may be more critically engaged with postsby the likes of models and celebrities, and therefore perceive the images they share to be more unrealistic."This is not just confined to body image though. We all have one area in our lives that triggers(触发)us. Maybe you’ve been searching for a new job for months and you find yourself on social media, envying your school friend who just landed their dream role. Maybe. . .All this is to say the obvious: we only see part of people’s lives -and if it’s getting you down, you’re probably comparing your insides to other people’s outsides. Everyone has their str uggles and life is indeed not perfect for anyone. So, put down your phone, get offline, be thankful and try to live your own life.21. What did the new study find?A.Social media invites unfavorable comments.B.Friends’ posts affect us more than celebrities’.C.Celebrities have a negative influence on our life.D.Body image causes more concern than social life.22. Why are we more likely to compare with our friends according to Swami?A.They serve as role models.B.We know the way they live. ,C.Their lifestyles are accessible.D.We are curious about their life.23. What does the underlined word in Paragraph 6 probably mean?A.Restricted.B.Related.C.Devoted.D.Exposed.24. What does the author suggest people do?A.Find your dream and fight for it.B.Stop comparing and be yourself.C.Be grateful and lead a perfect life.D.Stop complaining and get down to work.Camping Tips &Tricks for a Fun TripMany people idealize camping trips as being this easy, effortless encounter with destinations rich with natural landscapes and nights under the stars twinkling in the sky above. 25 That’s why we’ve prepared the best camping tips for you!Plan accordingly, and then plan again.When you’re out in the middle of nowhere, you have to be equipped to nature’s challenges. 26 Therefore, a plan for unexpected weather changes is essential to a successful camping trip. For example, consider packing extra suppliers like blankets. While that might seem like a huge inconvenience, the biggest and real issue occurs when you need something you don’t have.Know what you need. 27 Not all beginner campers will need the top-of-the-line, latest supplies. But you should have at least the basics! That includes a decent tent with enough room for people camping with you, a good sleeping bag appropriate for the season, and other supplies like food and water. You’d better create a convenient checklist that lays out everything that you should consider.28 When you’re far away from the major conveniences we rely upon like an urgent care center, police stations, and emergency rooms, you should always remember that safety is your first priority!29 A first aid kit is a great start ing point, but it’s certainly not the end of maximizing your safety efforts. Depending on where you plan to camp, you’ll want to grab these items that cover you in most emergency situations: a pocket knife, a fire starter, and a safety whistle.Ready to go camping? Now you know what to expect and how to prepare for your next camping trip, so you actually have fun—rain or shine!In August last year, my parents and I visited our relatives in Princeton Junction, New Jersey. Every day I enjoyed walking a circular way starting from their house. One evening I decided to be_________ and changed from my _________ way-I was looking forward to a longer walk, confident that I would be able to find my way back.My walk took me _________ the living area and into a beautiful place with an expanse of fields on both sides of the road. With the sun beginning to _________, it was really a wonderful sight. After about thirty minutes, I noticed that I was not _________ back in the direction I had come. I searched for my mobile phone to get help, but it turned out to be left at home.However, I remained _________. Although there weren’t any people about, there was some_________ and I was sure that someone would stop and point me in the right direction. As each car or truck came, I stopped and _______, but time after time each one passed me by. No one seemed tofeel any sympathy for me. About forty minutes, I was beginning to feel _________. There was no one ____________ and my family was completely in the dark as to my position.When I just gave up all hope, a black SUV ____________ me and stopped. A mother and daughter were willing to help. I told them I was lost and gave them my address. The mother pointed to a turning a little further down the road and ____________ me I was pretty close to home. Expressing my thanks, I started off at a fast ____________.I had been walking for about five minutes when I heard a car drive up behind me and stop. It was the mother and daughter again. They realized that they had not given me the correct direction.They offered to give me a(n) __________ home, and I was so grateful for their help.

We all like to feel close to someone. It is nice to have a friend to talk, laugh and do things with. Sure, there are times when we need to be alone. We don’t always want people around. But we would feel lonely if we never had a friend.No two people are the same. Sometimes friends don’t get along well. That doesn’t mean they no longer like each other. Most of the time they will go on being friends. Sometimes friends move away. Then we feel very sad. We miss them very much. But we can call them and write to them. Maybe we wound never see them again. And we can make new friends. It is surprising to find out how much we like new people when we get to know them. Families sometimes name their children after a close friend. Many places are named after men and women, if they are friendly to people in a town. Some libraries are named in this way. So are some schools. Wethink of these people when we go to these places.There is more good news for people, if they have friends. These people live longer than those people who don’t have friends. Why? It could be that they are happier. Being happy helps you stay well. Or it could be just knowing that someone cares. If someone cares about you, you take better care of yourself.36. The first paragraph tells us_______A.what is the feeling of having no friendsB.how to communicate with friendsC.making friends is a need in people’s lifeD.we need to be alone in our life37. According to the author, why sometimes friends don’t get along well? Because________A.friends move awayB.we don’t call them and write to themC.we have made new friendsD.no two people are the same38. Which of the following places people name after their friendly people is NOT mentioned in the passage?A. A townB. A roomC.A schoolD.A library39. Why do people who have friends live longer?A.They feel happier and healthier.B.They know more about friendship.C.They take less care of themselves.D.They care more about their friends.40. This passage mainly tells us ______A.that people are all friendsB. that people need friendsC.how to get to know friendsD.how to name a placeBEveryday, 340 million people speak it. One billion people are learning it and it is said that by 2050, half of the world’s population will be using it. What are we talking about? That is the global language—English.The English language started in Britain in the 5th century. It is a mixed language. It was built up when German. Scandinavian and French invaders settled in England and created a common language for communication.Today it is the official language of the UK, the USA, Australia, New Zealand, Canada, South Africa and Ireland as well as many islands in the Caribbean. Many other countries and regions use it for politics and business, for example, India. Pakistan, Nigeria and the Philippines. English is also one of the official languages of Hong Kong.But global advertising and pop music mean that in most countries, you will seeor hear some English. Thanks to McDonalds, we all know about “burgers”. “fries” and “milkshakes”. Songs by Madonna, Britney Spears and Celine Dion are in English. We can sing along, even if we do not understand what we are singing!English is a messy (杂乱的) language. Every year, dictionaries include new words that talk about popular culture, for example, computer-related words such as "blogging", "download" and "chartroom". Also included are words that teenagers use. Who does not know “cool”, “OK” and “hello”?Other languages also influence English. Many English words come from French. Words like “café” and expressions like “c'est la vie” (that is life) are all part of the English language. On the other hand, the French language includes English words like "le weekend" and "le camping". German words are also part of English. Words like "kindergarten" come from the German language.Recently, British people have become interested in “yoga”. But the word comes from an ancient Hindu language in India.41. The English language has a history of ______.A. over 2000 yearsB. over 500 yearsC. over 1500 yearsD. over 1000 years42. The underlined expression “thanks to” can be replaced by ______.A. because ofB. in order toC. as usualD. as if.43. Which of the following statements is true about the language of English?A. It has been changing all the time.B. It has borrowed words from all the other languages.C. French words are used by the English because dictionaries have French words.D. Singers and film stars have the greatest influence on language.44. How many people in the world are using English now?A. One billion peopleB. 340 millionC. almost all the people in the world.D. not mentioned above, but the number is growing rapidly.45. Many countries and regions use it for politics and business except______.A. the USAB. NigeriaC. the PhilippinesD. NorwayCIf you’re planning on traveling, there are a few simple rules about how to make life easier both before and after your journey.First of all, always check and double-check departure (起程) time. It is amazing how few people really do this carefully. Once I arrived at the airport a few minutes after ten. My secretary had got the ticket for me and I thought she had said that the plane left at 10:50. When I arrived at the airport, the clerk at the departure desk toldme that my flight was closed. Therefore, I had to wait three hours for the next one and missed an important meeting.The second rule is to remember that even in this age of credit cards, it is still important to have at least a little of the local currency(货币) with you when you arrive in a country. This can be necessary if you are flying to a place few tourists normally visit. A few years ago I was sent to Tulsa, Oklahoma. I flew there from London via(经由)Dallas, with very little time to change planes in between. I arrived there at midnight and the bank at the airport was closed. The only way to get to my hotel was by taxi and because I had no dollars, I offered to pay in pounds instead.“Listen! I only take real money!”the driver said angrily. Luckily I was able to borrow a few dollars from a clerk at the hotel, but it was embarrassing (令人难堪的).The third and last rule is to find out as much as you can about the weather at your destination before you leave. I feel sorry for some of my workmates who travel in heavy suit and raincoats in May, when it is still fairly cool in London or Manchester, to places like Athens, Rome or Madrid, where it is already beginning to get quite warm during the day.46. According to the passage, it’s obvious that______A. The author learns some rules of traveling from his own experience.B. The author doesn’t plan his trips or journeys carefully.C. Englishmen like to wear heavy suits wherever they travelD. The America taxi driver never travels to England.47. What should you make sure first before setting off?A. When you will leave.B. Where you will go.C. How you will travelD. Whom you will go with.48. According to the passage, the driver was angry because_______A. the author gave him false moneyB. the author did not give him the local currencyC. the author did not give him moneyD. the author had no enough change49. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A. The author tells people to choose warm places as their travel destinations.B. Y ou don’t have to take credit cards when traveling.C. Y ou should know more about the weather of the place yo u’ll visit.D. Y ou should take enough change when you travel to other countries.50. What is the main idea of the passage?A. A few simple rules about how to make life easier both before and after your journey.B. Always check and double-check departure time.C. It is important to have the local currency with you when you arrive in a country.D. To find out as much as you can about the weather at your destination before you leave.DSurfing the Internet for fun will make you a better employee, according to anAustralian study.The University of Melbourne study shows that people who use the Internet for their own reasons at work are about 9 percent more productive than those who do not. Study author Brent Coker said, “Surfing the Internet at times helps increase an employee’s attention.”“People need to relax for a bit to get back their attention,”Coker said on the university’s website. “Having a short break, such as a quick surfing of the Internet, helps the mind to rest itself, leading to a higher total Internet attention for a day’s work, and as a result, increases productivity(生产效率),”he said.According to the study of 300 workers, 70 percent of people who use the Internet at work surf the Internet for their own reasons during office hours. Among the most popular surfing activities are searching for information about products, reading online news, playing online games and watching videos. “Firms spend a lot of money on software to block their employees from watching video, using social networking sites or shopping online,” said Coker. “That’s not always a good idea.”However, Coker said the study looked at people who surfed the Internet in moderation (适度), or were on the Internet for less than 20 percent of their total time in the office. “Those who spend too much time surfing the Internet will have a lower productivity than those without,” he said.51. What does the University of Melbourne study mainly show?A. People who surf the Internet are good employees.B. Not everyone surfs the Internet for fun during office hours.C. Surfing the Internet for fun during office hours increases productivity.D. The Internet is becoming more and more important in people’s life.52. According to Paragraph 3, Brent Coker would most probably agree that______.A. the longer a person’s mind rests ,the better attention he will haveB. surfing the Internet is the best way to increase productivityC. workers should have a long break during office hoursD. Workers should let their minds rest now and then53. Which of the following is NOT mentioned in the passage as one of the most popular surfing activities?A. Watching videos.B. Reading online news.C. Reading online novelsD. Playing online games.54. The underlined word “block” in Paragrap4 means “_____”.A. preventB. cycleC. burstD. breathe55. What can we infer form the last paragraph?A. Spending too much time surfing the Internet reduces productivity.B. Those who never surf the Internet have the lowest productivity.C. Most people don’t surf the Internet in moderation during office hours.D. People should spend as little time as possible surfing the Internet.五、信息匹配(每题2分,共10分)下面几篇小短文是关于人们交往场所的信息。

Dinosaurs now are far away from us. Dinosaurs were real animals that once lived on the earth, but they _16_ (die) out about 65 million years ago. The _17_(disappear) of the dinosaurs is _18_ some way a great mystery. Some scientists think that the climate changed suddenly. Fossils of trees tell us that the temperature dropped a lot and that the level of the sea dropped as well. This means that it got suddenly much _19_ (cold). Perhaps the dinosaurs were too slow __20__(change) with the climate. A new idea is _21_ a meteor(流星) crashed into the earth. Scientists discovered a place in Mexico __ theythink the meteor crashed.

Many animals, __ (include) dinosaurs, were plant eaters, and perhaps the dust killed __24___. This means there was nothing left for meat eating dinosaurs to eat, and so they died out.

A I have been using the Internet since I was five years old, when my dad first sat me down in front ofa computer and connected me to the World Wide Web. I've always felt like a master of the Internet world. AOL Instant Messaging, MSN, Gmail, Facebook, Myspace - I've got it all under control. I thought there was nothing more to it besides checking my e-mail and wasting my time, until I was introduced to electronic commerce (e-commerce): business on the Internet. Some online businesses are run from one-room home offices. Others have hundreds of employees spreadacross five different continents. Have you ever heard of , ? My friends often said they got cheap textbooks off , or had a good deal on Steve Madden boots that were on sale at . Unfortunately for me, I continued my "e-commerce-less" Web-surfing, unaware(未意识到) of all the deals I was missing out on. That is, of course, until my sister finally sold the idea to me. "Why are all these packages arriving in the mail for you, Katy?" I asked her one day. Strange envelopes had been put on our doorstep for weeks now, each one always addressed to my sister; and we all know little sisters should never be getting more mail than their older siblings (兄弟姐妹)! "Oh, it's the stuff I ordered online!" she answered. I watched speechlessly as she opened item after item. There was no way our parents were letting her spend that much money ---- online or off! "How much did all of this cost?" "Oh, only about $15 in all!" She said excitedly. "Everything on eBay is on sale! It's way better than going to the mall." I felt as if during my entire life, there had been a store right in my backyard that I had never walked into! That week, I ordered a used Spanish textbook for my summer course online for 10 percent of the publishing price. A few days later, I bought an iPod protector and a book or two through the wonderful . 26. From the first two paragraphs we can conclude that the author ______. A. had no experience using computer B. thought surfing the Internet was a waste of time C. only used the Internet to check e-mail D. had no idea of what e-commerce is 27. What does the underlined word “stuff” in Paragraph 7 mean? A. Things bought on line. B. People working in online shops. C. Shops on the Internet. D. People who do online shopping. 28. Why was the author surprised when she saw her sister’s items? A. Because she had no knowledge of online shopping. B. Because she did not like the stuff that her sister bought. C. Because she thought her parents liked her sister more. D. Because she had not thought her sister should buy so many things. 29. The underlined part of the sentence in the last paragraph suggests that the author ________ . A. wanted to go for a walk in her backyard B. had never done online shopping before C. was eager to open up an online shop D. showed great interest in the Internet 30. What’s the author’s purpose in writing the passage? A. To give advice on how to do online shopping. B. To encourage readers to do online shopping. C. To share her experiences on how to know e-commerce. D. To introduce some famous websites to readers. B I’ve loved my mother’s desk since I was just tall enough to sit above the top of it. Mother sat writing letters. Standing by her chair, looking at the ink bottle, pens, and white paper, I decided that the act of writing must be a most wonderful thing in the world. Years later, during her final illness, Mother kept different things for my sister and brother. “But the desk,” she said again, “is for Elizabeth.” I never saw her angry, never saw her cry. I knew she loved me; she showed in action. But as a young girl. I wanted to have heart-to-heart talks between mother and daughter. They never happened. And a gulf opened between us. I was “too emotional (易动感情的)”. But she lived “on the surface (表面)”. As years passed and I had my own family. I loved my mother and thanked her for our happy family. I wrote to her in careful words and asked her to let me know in any way she chose that she did forgive me. My hope turned to disappointment, then little interest and, finally, peace it seemed that nothing happened. I couldn’t be sure that the letter had even got to Mother. I only knew that I had written it, and I could stop trying to make her into someone she was not. But the present of her desk told me, as she’d never been able to, that she was pleased that writing was my chosen work. I cleaned the desk carefully and found some papers inside a photo of my father and a one-paper letter, folded and refolded many times. It was my letter. “In any way you choose, Mother, you always chose the act that speaks louder than words.” 31.The writer began to love her mother’s desk________. A.after Mother died B.after she wrote the letter C.when she was a child D.when Mother gave it to her 2.The passage shows that_________. A.Mother was cold on the surface but kind in her heart to her daughter B.Mother was too serious about her daughter in words C.Mother wrote to her daughter in careful words D.Mother wrote to her daughter in careless words 33. Which of the following is NOT true? A. The author may work as a writer B. The author and her mother love each other, but didn’t say it out C. Neither the author nor her mother had a happy family. D. The author’s mother is a person who prefers act to words. 34.What did Mother do with her daughter’s letter asking for forgiveness? A.She had never received the letter. B.For years, she often talked about the letter. C.She didn’t forgive her daughter at all in all her life. D.She read the letter again and again till she died. 35.What’s best title of the passage? A.My letter to Mother B.Mother and children C.My Mother’s Desk D.Talks between Mother and me If you have to miss a meal a day, which meal will cause you fewest health problems if you don’t eat it? If you have to make a decision of this type, most people (especially very busy people) will choose to skip breakfast. However, many experts in the field of health consider breakfast ( the meal which “break” you “fast” ) to be the most important meal of the day. If we eat a good breakfast, they say, we will have the energy and nutrients (营养) we need to begin our working day with vigor(活力) and stay hopeful with good honor. However, many people skip breakfast or substitute a cup of coffee for a well balanced meal. What happens if we ignore the importance of breakfast? One recent study conducted in the United States tested a large number of people. Participants(参加者) included both males and females who ranged in age from 12 to 83. The results showed that if a person eats an adequate(丰富的) breakfast, he or she will work more efficiently(效率高地) and more productively than if he or she skips breakfast or eats a very poor breakfast. This fact appears to be especially true if a person’s work involves mental(脑力的) activities. The study showed that if school-children eat fruit, eggs, bread and milk before going to school, they will learn more quickly and will be able to concentrate on their lessons for a longer period of time than if their breakfast is inadequate(不丰富). will likely lose more weight if you decrease your other meals. 36. According to experts, breakfast is the most important meal of the day because _____. A. a good breakfast breaks you down fast B. you’ll lose weight quickly if you skip breakfast C. breakfast provides what a person needs to work D. after a long night, you’ll feel very hungry 37.

It is a great truth because once we truly understand and accept it, then life is no longerdifficult. Most do not fully see this truth. Instead they complain about their problems and difficulties as if life should be easy. It seems to them that difficulties stand for a special kind of suffering especially forced on them or else on their families, their class, or even their nation. What makes life difficult is that the process of facing and solving problems is a painful one. Problems, depending on their nature, cause sadness, or loneliness or regret or anger or fear. These are uncomfortable feelings, often as painful as any kind of physical pain. And since life causes a lot of problems, life is always difficult and is full of pain as well as joy. Yet, it is in this whole process of solving problems that life has its meaning. Problems are the serious test that tells us success from failure. When we want to encourage the growth of human spirit, we encourage the human ability to solve problems, just as in school we set problems for our children to solve. It is through the pain of meeting and working out problems that we learn. As Benjamin Franklin said, “Those things that hurt, instruct(指导).” It is for this reason that wise people learn not to fear but to welcome the pain of problems. 41.Which sentence best express the central point of the passage?
