AI’m a speed reader. Have been since I was a teen. Mother worked for the continuing education department of a university, and they were offering a class on speed reading and needed one more person to fill out the class. I became that one person.The class met for only an hour or two for a few weeks, but when the goal of a class is speed, you don’t need to meet for long. The instructor said to make our eyes go across the lines of words as fast as they could and not to be concerned about what the words meant. I read Animal Farm in 10 ten minutes. Cover to cover. The instructor asked what the book was about. I said I didn’t know, but if I had to guess I’d say it was about animals on a farm. He looked displeased.I’ve been speed reading ever since. I can’t stop and I can’t slow down. Today, for example, I plan on reading Churchill’s History of the English Speaking Peoples over lunch. I hope it’s more memorable than Animal Farm.As a result of all this speed-reading, I often experience a delay between what I think I read and what something actually says.The other day I passed by a mall with a large sign that said “Auto Theft Sale”. I thought how efficient it was for auto thieves to simply sell all the stole cars in a big tent at the mall. A half-mile later it dawned on me that the sign had said “Auto Tent Sale”.Every time I drive through a construction zone, I gasp (屏气). The sign says: “Hit a Worker$10, 000 (about 62,000 yuan).” It reads like they’re offering a reward. Of course, it’s not an offer. It’s just that my eyes rarely take in the last line that says, “Fine.” It’s a $10, 000 fine if you hit a worker. Someone really needs to rephrase that one.Speed reading has bitten me on the backside more than once. Especially as a writer. Just ask any of my editors.21. Why was the author able to attend classes on speed reading?A. Her mother found her gifted in speed reading.B. She was the only teenager applicant for the class.C. She’d a lready practiced speed reading before.D. She took a chance and filled one vacancy (空缺).22. What left the instructor unsatisfied in the class?A. It took the author ten minutes to complete Animal Farm.B. The author read fast but didn’t get the main idea of the book.C. The class was only an hour or two for a few weeks.D. All the class actually failed to follow his advice.23. The author tends to prove that there is always a delay in her understanding after speed readingby ________.A. making comparisonsB. analyzing cause and effectC. giving examplesD. drawing a conclusion24. Which of the following best describes the author?A. Talented and productive.B. Proud and hot-headed.C. Careless and quick-tempered.D. Truthful and humorous.BA trip across the Pacific will guarantee you a different experience with a tipping culture you’ve never come across in China.In the US, giving a little extra money to service workers on top of your bill is a common practice.Though US national law requires that businesses pay workers at least $ (45 yuan) per hour, employees receiving tips—often waiters and waitresses—are the exceptions. They usually only receive at least $ an hour, and tips make up the difference. As the Wall Street Journal put it, “The American system of tipping holds the promise of great rewards for waiting staff.”So how should you tip if you are in the US?Normally you pay tips as a percentage of the bill. Offering an extra 15 percent of the bill to the waiter or waitress in a restaurant and to the delivery man or woman is customary and expected. You can offer more for great service and less for poor service.Yet there is an exception. For take-out food, you don’t have to provide tips, though some people say that filling an order still requires work and time that deserve a little extra—but maybe a little less.Tips are not expected at fast food restaurants, cafés or ice cream shops either, though a tip jar might be right by the cash register (收银机). Don’t feel obligated to throw some money in, but also remember that it doesn’t hurt. Those workers do not rely on tips.Other service workers also receive tips. For taxi drivers, 15 percent is the norm (标准), more if they help with your bags. Hairdressers often receive about 15 percent of the bill. The same goes for spa therapists and tour guides.Today, you can even pay tips on a credit card. When receiving a copy of the bill to sign, you are free to fill in how much you’d like to tip.Though thinking about when to tip and how much you should tip causes a big headache for many Chinese people, it’s important to bear in mind that as long as you show respect and use your reasoning, things will be just fine.25. According to the Wall Street Journal, the American system of tipping ________.A. helps restaurants profit moreB. encourages better serviceC. supports satisfactory pay for waiting staffD. encourages more respect to the waiting staff26. Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?A. We don’t necessarily have to pay tips at McDonalds’.B. We should always tip in a restaurant.C. Consumers can choose tip by credit card.D. Consumers usually pay 15% of the bill as tips.27. Which of the following best describes the author’s attitude towards tipping?A. Giving tips is a big headache for Chinese.B. There are too many rules to follow when tipping.C. Tipping system should not apply to foreigners.D. We need to take it easy and do as the Romans do.CWho knows why kids do anything? When it comes to cyberbullying (网络欺凌), they are often motivated by anger or frustration (挫败感). Sometimes they do it for entertainment or because they are bored and have too much time on their hands and too many tech toys available to them. Many do it for laughs or to get a reaction. Some do it by accident, without thinking before they do something. The power-hungry do it to make others suffer. And some think they arerighting wrong and standing up for others. Because their motives differ, the solutions and responses to each type of cyberbullying incident has to differ, too. There is no “one size fits all” when cyberbullying is concerned.However, education can help considerably in preventing and dealing with the consequences of cyberbullying. If we can help kids understand how much bullying hurts, and how in many cases words can hurt, fewer may cooperate with the cyberbullies. They will think twice before forwarding a hurtful e-mail, or visiting a cyberbullying “vote for the fat girl” site, or allowing others to take videos or cell phone pictures of personal moments.And, in addition to not lending their efforts to continue the cyberbullying, we also need to teach our children not to stand silently by while others are being hurt. Martin Luther King, Jr. once said that in the end we will remember not the words of our enemies, but the silence of our friends. Kids will feel more comfortable to break the silence if given an anonymous (匿名的) method of reporting cyberbullying web-sites. School administration, community groups and even school policing staff can receive these anonymous tips and take action quickly.If our children do not allow the cyberbullies to use them to embarrass or hurt others and realize that silence, when others are being hurt, is not acceptable, cyberbullying will quickly stop. It’s a tall task, but a noble goal. And in the end, our children will be safer on line and offline. We will have helped create a generation of good cybercitizens, controlling the technology instead of being controlled by it.28. Which of the following is NOT an action of cyber-bullying?A. Standing up for others.B. Forwarding a hurtful e-mail.C. V oting for the fat girl on a website.D. Saying cruel words to upset others.29. What does the underlined sentence mean?A. We will forget our enemies, but remember our friends.B. friends will give us silent support when we are in trouble.C. our friends will stick with us without saying anything.D. it hurt more if our friends stand by when we are suffering.30. The writer organizes the passage following the pattern of ________.A. effect—causeB. problem—solutionC. topic—supporting detailsD. conclusion—evidence31. What does the writer mainly tell us?A. How much kids suffer from cyberbullying.B. How to deal with different kinds of cyberbullies.C. How to teach kids to take a stand against cyberbullying.D. How to create a generation of good cybercitizens.DDear Parent/Guardian,There has been a case of Pertussis (百日咳) reported at Hilltop High. Your child may have been exposed to this highly infectious disease that causes severe coughing. Because no vaccine is 100% protective, even immunized persons can become ill with Pertussis, but the symptoms are usually milder.Pertussis is spread through the air when a sick person coughs or sneezes. Infants and young children are at highest risk. Their symptoms most often include cold symptoms such as runny nose, slight fever, and occasional cough.

These attacks may worsen at night.If your child starts to show symptoms of Pertussis:1.Consult your healthcare provider and let them know your child may have been exposed to someone ill with Pertussis. This disease is treated with specific antibiotics.2. Inform the school if your doctor suspects your child is ill with Pertussis. Sick children should stay home until completion of five days of antibiotic therapy to prevent spreading the disease to others.To help protect against getting ill from Pertussis:1. Check with your doctor to see if you and your family are up to date with the appropriate vaccine.2. Wash hands frequently.3. Visit the websites or to learn more about Pertussis.4. Parents of children without symptoms may consider making an appointment for the child to see their doctor.If you have any additional questions about Pertussis, you may call the County of San Diego Health and Human Services Agency, Epidemiology and Immunization Services at 6 and press 5 to speak with a Public Health Nurse.Sincerely,Priscilla Nueve, School Nurse32.

Families and friends gather to eat and give thanks for their blessing.Thanksgiving Day is really a harvest festival. This is why it is celebrated in late fall, after the crops are in. But one of the first thanksgivings in America had nothing to do with a good harvest. On December 4, 1619, the Pilgrims from England landed near what is now Charles City, Virginia. They knelt down and thanked God for their safe journey across the Atlantic.The first New England Thanksgiving did celebrate a rich harvest. The Pilgrims landed at what is now Plymouth, Massachusetts, in 1620. They had a difficult time and the first winter was cruel. Many of the Pilgrims died. But the next year, they had a good harvest. So Governor Bradford declared a three-day feast（盛宴）. The Pilgrims invited Indian friends to join them for their special feast. Everyone brought food.In time, other colonies（殖民地）began to celebrate a day of thanksgiving. But it took years before there was a national Thanksgiving Day. During the Civil War, Sarah Josepha Hale persuaded Abraham Lincoln to do something about it. He proclaimed（宣布）the last Thursday of November 1863 as a day of thanksgiving. Today, Americans celebrate this happy harvest festival on the fourth Thursday in November. Canadians celebrate Thanksgiving Day in much the same way as their American neighbors. But the Canadian thanks-giving Day falls on the second Monday in October.【1】Thanksgiving Day is celebrated .A．in spring B．summerC．in autumn D．in winter【2】The first to celebrate thanksgiving were .A．some people from England B．the American IndiansC．Sarah Josepha Hale D．Governor Bradford【3】We can infer from the passage that New England must be .A. in the U.

They have been handed down through generations (代) among groups, social classes, etc. Customs can be described as ways of doing things. They are particularly (特别) strong in social practices on the occasions (场合) of births, marriages and deaths.In China, these days, some people in cities are learning from Western customs. For example, some brides dress in the long white dress that is usual bridal wear in many Western countries.Every people (民族) has special customs for New Year. The Han people have many interesting Spring Festival customs. And now, quite a number of people living in the cities have followed the Western customs of sending New Year greeting cards for January 1st.One interesting custom in China is that mothers wrap (包) up their babies tightly (紧紧的).This is not the custom in Western countries, where babies are usually dressed in loose garments.【1】It is true that customs .A．have been formed during a short timeB．have been formed little by littleC．have been quickly formed and changedD．have never been changed【2】In this passage, the word “garment” is .A．a kind of food B．a bedC．a sort of clothes D．a room【3】How do the Chinese young people learn from Western countries at their marriages?A．The brides（新娘）have on the white clothes.B．Men wear the white coats.C．Their parents all have attended their marriages.D．Their marriages are only held in the men’s h omes.【4】From this passage we know .A．the people all over China spend New Year in the same wayB．people in the villages and cities send New Year greeting cards to each otherC．each people has his special custom for New YearD．most of Chinese people take Spring Festival seriously【5】The difference about clothing between Chinese and Western babies is that .A．Chinese babies are usually dressed in new clothesB．Chinese mothers are used to dressing their babies in colourful clothesC．Western babies are dressed in bigger clothes while Chinese babies are usually wrappedD．Western babies have more clothes than Chinese babies3.Our daughter Kerrin, a student at Boston University, had been home for a week-end visit, and I dropped her off at the bus station just in time for her back to college. After Kerrin’s bus had gone and I was driving away, I noticed that she had left her purse on the passenger seat. Worried that she would arrive in Boston without money or keys to her room, I called my wife, Bette Jean, on the car phone, explaining why I would be late. As I was following the bus, Bette Jean phoned me back to say she had phoned the bus dispatcher（调度员）on the other line and he, in return, had phoned the bus driver on yet another phone. The driver asked me to wave out of my window to show where I was. Then he pulled over at a rest stop, and I did the same.

asleep when he felt a soft ( 35 ) on his elbow．He woke up to find that his camel had put his head inside the tent．The camel said："would you please let me keep my head in the tent to get warm？It's so cold outside．I won't take up too much ( 36 ) ．The Arab was a ( 37 ) man，"All right，do as you ( 38 ) ．"he said．Then he turned on his ( 39 ) and went back to sleep．It wasn't long ( 40 ) he felt a push on his shoulder．It was the camel again．"Dear master，"the camel said，"my head is quite warm now，but my neck is still cold．Do you mind ( 41 ) I keep it inside the tent，too？"" ( 42 ) ，"the man said．But this time he felt a bit ( 43 ) ，as the camel had such a long neck．No sooner had she shut his eyes ( 44 ) he got a harder push in his side．This time the camel said，"Will you please allow me to bring my front legs inside and warm them a little？"The Arab ( 45 ) over to one side of the tent．He made ( 46 ) as small as he could．It wasn't( 47 ) comfortable，and sleep was now out of ( 48 ) ．Soon after that

influence．Theories ( 51 ) on the individual suggest that children ( 52 ) criminal behavior before they were not sufficiently ( 53 ) for previous misbehaviors or that they have learned criminal behavior through interaction with others．Theories focusing on the role of society suggest that children commit crimes in ( 54 ) to their failure to rise above their socioeconomic status or as a rejection of middle-class values．Most theories of juvenile delinquency have focused on children from ( 55 ) families，( 56 ) the fact that children from wealthy homes also commit crimes．The latter may commit crimes for lack of adequate control from parents．All ( 57 ) ，however，are uncertain or unimproved and are of course challenged with criticism．Changes in the social structure may indirectly ( 58 ) juvenile crime rates．For example，changes in the economy that ( 59 ) to fewer job opportunities for youth and rising unemployment ( 60 ) make gainful employment increasingly difficult to obtain．This results in ( 61 ) among youths and may in ( 62 ) lead more youths into criminal behavior．Families have also experienced ( 63 ) these years．More families consist of one parent households or two working parents；( 64 ) children are likely to have less supervision at home than was common in the traditional family ( 65 ) ．This lack of parental supervision isthought to be an influence on juvenile crime rates．Other noticeable ( 66 ) of offensive acts include ( 67 ) experience or failure in school，the ( 68 ) availability of drugs and alcohol，and the growing phenomenon of child abuse and child neglect．All these conditions tend to increase the ( 69 ) of a child committing a criminal act，( 70 ) a direct cause and effect relationship has not yet been established．51.A.centering B.depending

of"mastery"-feeling important and worthwhile-and the sources of what we call a sense of"pleasure"-finding life enjoyable-arenot always the same．Women often are told"You can't have it all．"Sometimes what the speaker really is saying is："You choose a career，so you can't expect to have closer relationships or a happy family life．"or"You have a wonderful husband and children-what's all this about wanting a career？"But women need to understand and develop both aspects of well-being，if they are to feel good about themselves．Our study shows that，for women，well-being has two aspects．One is mastery，which includes self-respect，a sense of control over your life，and low levels of anxiety and depression．Mastery is closely related to the"doing"side of life，to work and activity．Pleasure is the other aspect，and it is made up of happiness，satisfaction and optimism．It is tied more closely to the"feeling"side of life．The two are independent of each other．A woman could be high in mastery and low in pleasure，and vice versa（反之亦然）．For example，a woman who has a good job，but whose mother has just died，might be feeling very good about herself and in control of her work life，but the pleasure side could be damaged for a time．The concepts of mastery and pleasure can help us identify the sources of well-being for women，and correct past mistakes．In the past，women were encouraged to look only at the feeling side of life as the source of all well-being．But we know that both mastery and pleasure are important．And mastery seems to be achieved largely through work．In our study，all the groups of employed women were valued significantly higher in mastery than women who were not employed．A woman's well-being is developed when she takes on multiple roles．At least by middleadulthood，the women who were involved in a combination of roles-marriages，motherhood，and employment-were the highest in well-being，in spite of warnings about stress and strain．131.It can be inferred from the first paragraph that ______ ．A.for women，a sense of"mastery"is more important than a sense of"pleasure"B.for women，a sense of"pleasure"is more important than a sense of"mastery"C.women can't have a sense of"mastery"and a sense of"pleasure"at the same timeD.a sense of"mastery"and a sense of"pleasure"are both necessary to women132.The author's attitude towards women having a career is ______ ．A.negativeB.positiveC.indifferentD.realistic133.One can conclude from the passage that if a woman takes on several social roles，______ ．A.it will be easier for her to overcome stress and strainB.she will be more successful in her careerC.her chances of getting promoted will be greaterD.her life will be richer and more meaningful134.Which of the following can be considered as a source of"pleasure"for women？______ A.Family life B.Multiple roles in societyC.Regular employmentD.Freedom from anxiety．BParties and social gathering no longer excite us the same way they once did．This is not because of a lack of desire to socialize，but the mobile-phone．At parties，more people are on their phones than on their drinks．According to a recent International Data Corporation Study，over half of all Americans have a smartphone and reach for it as soon as they wake up，keeping it in hand all day．In addition，too many people in society are using smartphones while driving and as a result，they get into carcrashes.34percent of teenagers admit sending messages while driving，and they agree that sending messages is their number one driving interruption．People's addiction（沉溺）to their smartphones is unbelievably becoming more important than the lives of themselves and others．Just as drivers ignore the importance of focusing while on the road，many people also fail to recognize the importance of human communication．When with their friends，some people aimlessly check or send messages in front of a friend，which sends a message to that friend：the person I am texting is more important than you．In addition，relying on our smartphones to make friends does not give us the same advantage as being able to make new friendships in the real world．Face-to-face conversations will give us much stronger communication skills in the long run．As many people risk their lives and the lives of people around them just to send a message or mindlessly check their messages，smartphones are in many ways more dangerous to people．The quality of this technology is preventing societal achievements and weakening the value of communication．Not only is the smartphone affecting our desire to communicate face to face，but it is also lowering society's ability to communicate．135.The purpose of the passage is to ______A.call for an end to use the smartphone while drivingB.tell us to pay attention to communication skillsC.express a concern about the overuse of the smartphoneD.advise us to be careful about the addiction to face-to-face communication．136.The second paragraph is developed by ______ ．A.giving examplesB.time order．paring factsD.analyzing the effects137.The author advises us to make new friends ______ ．A.by using smartphonesB.in a face-to-face wayC.in different waysD.by writing letters．138.Over-dependence on the smartphone leads to the fact that ______ ．A.parties and gathering limit their social circle．B.people are more and more easy-going．C.people's communication skills are weakened．D.face-to-face communication becomes more and more dangerous．IV、信息匹配(本大题共5小题，共15.0分)139.So many section managers ______ （缺席），the board meeting had to be put off until next

life，and it is frequently one of the hardest decisions we have to make．One important question that you might ask yourself is："How do I get a good job？"（146）______ ．There are people who can answer an insignificant advertisement in the local paper and land the best job in the world；others write to all sorts of places all over the country，and never seem to get a reply at all．Still others believe that the in person，door-to-door approach is by far the best way to get a job；and then there are those who，through no active decision of their own，just seem to be in the right place at the right time．（147）______ ．He used to spend a lot of his free time down by the sea watching the tall ships，but never thinking that he might one day sail one of them．His father was a farmer，and being a sailor could never be anything for the boy but an idle dream．One day，on his usual wandering，he heard the captain of the ship complaining that he could not sail because one member of his crew was sick．Without stopping to think，the lad（少年）offered to take his place．（148）______ ．（149）______ ．If the lad had gone home to ponder（考虑）his decision for a week，he may have missed his chance．It is one thing to be offered an opportunity；it is another thing to take it and use it well．Sometimes we hear stories about people who break all the rules and still seem to land plum jobs（美差）．When you go for a job interview or fill out an application，you are expected to say nice things about the company to which you are applying．（150）______ ．And within a year this person had become general manger of the company．A．This story also illustrates the importance of seizing an opportunity when it presents itself．B．People find jobs in a great number of ways．C．it's almost impossible to find a good job by answering advertisement in newspapers D．Take for example the young man who wanted to be a sailor．E．But there was one person who landed an excellent job by telling the interviewer all the company's faults．F．He spent the rest of his life happily sailing the ships he had always loved．G．It is very important to seize an opportunity when it presents

important value．Your parents are the people who raised you，devoting time，energy and money to your development．（151）______ No matter your age，there are 5ways to showrespect．●Respect their belongings．One important way to show respect is to show regard for the things important to your parents．For younger children，this may mean not touching jewelry or other valuable things．For grown children，respect may mean returning a borrowed tool in good condition and on time．Lack of respect for a parent's belongings is a violation of personalBoundaries．（152）______ And never borrow things without asking first．●Punctuality．（153）______ Therefore，always be on time．For teenagers，showing up on time means cominghome by curfew（宵禁）．Adult children should show up on time for family dinners or events，or to pick a parent up for a medical appointment．Call if you're going to be late because parents worry about children，no matter their age．●（154）______ Remembering birthdays，anniversaries and other special days is a sign thatyouhonor your parents．Make plans to take them to lunch or dinner or bake a cake or cookies．Most parents don't expect expensive gifts，but a handmade gift is always

so shocked him as the truth about water shortage on the planet，"A UN report says by 2025more than 40countries are expected to ______ ．That shortage of water will be the end of civilized life，"he said with great worry．[2]One day back in 2007，he was sitting in a friend's house and noticed a leaky tap．It bothered him．A few days later，he came across a statistic in the newspaper：a tap that drips （滴落）once every second wastes a thousand litres of water in a month．T hat triggered an idea．He would take a plumber（水管工）from door to door and fix taps for free every weekend．[3]He named his Non-governmental Organization‘D rop Dead'and created a slogan：save every drop…or drop dead．[4]By the end of the first year，he had visited l，533homes and fixed around 400taps．Slowly，the news began to spread．Local newspapers began to write about Drop Dead，which caused a further flood of grateful emails and messages．Conservatively，it could be estimated that he has saved at least 5.5m litres of water till date．[5]In the summer of 2014，the state where Aabid lives is expecting its worst drought in40years．Months in advance，the govemment has prepareddrought-relief packages worth millions of dollars，but Aabid sees his own approach as simple and inexpensive．"Anyone can launch a water conservation project in his or her area．It doesn't require much funding．And most importantly，it puts the power back in our own hands，"he says．156.Fill in the blank in Paragraph l with proper words．（no more than 5words）．______157.Why did Aabid take a plumber from door to door and fix taps？（no more than

not had a chance to go swimming for years can still swim as well as ever when he gets back in the water．He can get on a bicycle after many years and still ride away．He can play catch and hit a ball as well as his son．A mother who has not thought about the words for years can teach her daughter the poem that begins"Twinkle，twinkle，little star"or remember the story of Cinderella or Goldilocks and the Three Bears．[2]One explanation is the law of overlearning，which can be stated as follows：Once we have learned something，additional learning trials increase the length of time we will remember it．[3]In childhood we usually continue to practice such skills as swimming，bicycle riding，and playing baseball long after we have learned them．We continue to listen to and remind ourselves of words such as"Twinkle，twinkle，little star"and childhood tales such as。

I ran to my father with tears in myeyes.He listened to me quietly, then he asked. “Are the things she says true or not? Janet, didn’t you ever wonder what you’re really like ? Well, you now have that girl’s opinion. Go and make a list of everything she said and mark the points that are true. Pay no attention to the other things shesaid.”I did as he told me. To my great surprise, I discovered that about half the things were true. Some of them I couldn’t change (like being very thin), but a good number I could—and suddenly I wanted to change. For the first time I go to fairly clear picture of myself.I brought the list back to Daddy. He refused to take it.“That’s just for you,” he said.“You know better than anyone else the truth about yourself. But you have to learn to listen, not just close your ears in anger and feeling hurt. When som ething said about you is true, you’ll find it will be of help to you. Our world is full of people who think they know your duty. Don’t shut your ears.

You can practice with your classmates outside class. You will all make mistakes, but 10 you will become comfortable communicating in English.The third step is to 11 a record of your language learning. You can write this in your journal. After each class, 12 what you did. Did you answer a question correctly? Did you understand something the teacher explained? Perhaps the lesson was difficult, but you tried to understand it. Write these accomplishments in your journal.You must be positive about learning English and believe that you can do it. It is important to practice every day and make a record of your achievements.

Learning to AcceptI learned how to accept life as it is from my father. 1 . He did not teach me acceptance when he was strong and healthy. But rather when he was 2 and ill.My father was3 a strong man who loved being active, but a terrible illness 4 all that away. Now he can no longer walk. And he must sit quietly in a chair all day. Even talking is 5 . One night, I went to visit him with my sisters, we started6 about life, and I told them about one of my 7 . I said that we must always things up 8 we grow-our youth.

He told the team how 7 this game was for the season, between two of the state’s top teams—my school and our opposing team, LibertyHigh School. His words gave the team impulse (冲动) it needed to 8 .At 7:10 pm, warm-ups finished, we went over the game 9 and discussed what we needed to do for the next three hours. The sound of the national anthem （庄严正式的歌曲） 10 that we were only minutes from the action. Our coach usually made a final 11 . But tonight was different. On this clear night he 12 looked arou nd the room at all the players and shouted, “Let’s go and get them.” Even 13 the “get” came out of his mouth, we were already 14 our way out of the door.Outside, a few young fans reached to touch our hands, eager to be a 15 of our school’s win ning tradition. When I smiled and 16 my hand, the young faces lit up as if they had just met Superman. Seconds later, the team ran onto the 17 , moving as a mass of blue, in front of a packed stadium. We enjoyed a noisy 18 from fans and the fight song played by our school band. Breathing in the 19 of one of the biggest game of the year, I felt we were sure to win.

We all know the saying, “One’s enemy is one’s own anger and one’s calmness is the friend of oneself.” Anger is the root cause of many bad outcomes. We all know of damage that anger has caused us. There are many old stories that tell us the bad effects of anger.But the question is whether we should never experience anger and lead lives like sages (圣人)？I do not think the answer is a firm yes. Everyone should have this emotion and be able to use it ina wise way. In other words, it is also known as controlled aggression. We see a lot of this kind of controlled emotion when we watch athletes in action. If an athlete has the right amount of aggression, the game or the battle is half won. The other half can be won by his skills.Controlled aggression or anger also plays an important role in a person’s career and life.During the cours es of a person’s career, people who hold high positions need to exercise this e motion called anger in a professional and right manner. For getting the work done well, it is important for you to make use of positive aggression or controlled anger. We can extend this to our daily lives as well. If the parent is not strict at times, children will behave in a wrong way and do not develop as they are expected. Teachers have to exercise this emotion in a wise way to make the students gain knowledge in an effective manner.All in all, if one is able to use the emotion called anger in a controlled manner, it will lead to the smooth development in his life and career.1. People’s opinion of anger is usually _____.A. positiveB. reasonableC. negativeD. objective2. Which of the following is a kind of controlled aggression according to the passage?A. Accepting defeatB. Attacking other athletesC. Trying to be better than othersD. Looking down upon others3. According to the author, controlled aggression or anger _______.A. is our enemyB. is known to allC. doesn’t have an effect on usD. does us good4. We can infer that if a teacher uses controlled anger, __________.A. his students may get good gradesB. he will often get angry with his studentsC. he will care about his students very muchD. he will be especially strict with his students三、阅读理解21. My friend Alice decided to be a nurse when she was four years old. She always to play at "doctors and nurses" with her playmates. When she left school last year, she still wanted to be a real nurse. Late September she started her studies in a big hospital in Newcastle. She had to work very hard. She went to classes every day and studied late at night. Then a really important day came: her first day in a ward (病房). At last she was really helping sick people, not just sitting in classes or learning from books.At first, student nurses do lots of odd jobs(零活)in the ward. They help to serve meals, or wash the patients. They also keep the ward tidy and make the beds. But they cannot give injections(注射)or help the doctors.One of Alice's first jobs was in a ward of old people. She was told to clean all the patients' false teeth. She collected all the teeth and took them to the bathroom. Instead of cleaning each set of teeth one by one, she put them all into a big bowl."It'll be quicker this way," she said to herself. "Then I can give back everyone's teeth in a few minutes."Give back everyone's teeth! Alice stood in the middle of the ward with her big bowl of teeth. She had no idea which teeth belonged to which old man! You can imagine the confusion (混乱)of the next half-hour when each patient came to find his own teeth!1.

Swimming,cycling, jogging, skiing, dancing, walking or any of dozens of other activities can help your heart. 1 . Whether it is a structured exercise program or just part of your daily routine, all exercise adds up to having a healthier heart. Here are some tips for exercise success.●Choose activities that are fun and add variety. Develop several activities that you can enjoy. 2●Wear comfortable, properly fitted shoes and comfortable, loose-fitting clothing appropriate for the weather and the activity.●Find a convenient time and place to do activities. 3 . If you miss an exercise opportunity, work activity into your day another way.●Use music to keep yourself entertained.● 4 .Decide what kind of support you need. Do you want them to remind you to exercise? Exercise with you regularly or occasionally? Be understanding when you get up early to exercise?Spend time with the children while you exercise? Try not to ask you to change your exercise routine? Share your activity time with others. Ask your family members, friends or co-workers for help.●Don’t overdo it, especially at first. You can slowly increase the time and intensity (强度) of your activities as you become more fit. 5●Keep a record of your activities. Reward yourself at times. Nothing will inspire you more than success!A．Try to make it a habit, but be flexible.B．They all cause you to feel warm and breathe heavily without being out of breath.C．Be an active role model for your children.D．That way, exercise will never seem boring.E. If you are overweight or have a high risk of heart disease, see your doctor for medicaladvice before exercising.F. Surround yourself with supportive people.G. Gradually, work up to exercising on most days of the week for 30－60 minutes.2. A. Manufacturing industry in information economyB. News in the age of informationC. Argument about individual accounts and their reliabilityD. Be your own investigative journalistE. Don’t believe everything you read in the newspapers.F. Information is presented in an entertaining way.1______With the arrival of the age of “information economy”, intellectual work is becoming a more important source of wealth than manufacturing. Organizations in all walks of life are doing more to spread their inf ormation. So people of the Public Relations are hired to speak for them. A lot of our news is actually collected from press releases and reports of events intentionally staged for journalists. In the information age, journalists spend their time, not investigating, but passing on the words of a spokesperson.2______There is a joke in the novel Scoop about the newspaper’s owner, Lord Copper. The editors can never disagree with him. When he’s right about something they answer “definitely”, and when he’s wrong they say “to some extent, Lord Copper.” It seems reasonable to suppose tha t, in the real world, the opinions of such powerful people still influence the journalists and editors who work for them.3______In countries where the news is not officially controlled, it may be provided by commercial organizations who depend on advertising. The news has to attract viewers and maintain its audience ratings. I suspect that some stories get air-time just because there happen to be exciting pictures to show. In Britain, we have the tabloid newspapers which millions of people read simply for entertainment. There is progressively less room for historical background, or statistics, which are harder to present as a sensational story.4______There is an argument that with spreading access to the internet and cheap technology for recording sound and images we will all be able to find exactly the information we want. People around the world will be able to publish their own eye-witness accounts and compete with the widely-accepted news-gatherers on equal terms. But what it will mean also is that we’ll be subjected to a still greater amount of nonsense and lies. Any web log may contain the latest information of the year, or equally, a made-up story that you will never be able to check. 5______Maybe the time has come to do something about it, and I d on’t just mean changing your choice of TV channel or newspaper. In a world where everyone wants you to listen to their version, you only have two choices: switch off altogether or start looking for sources you can trust. The investigative journalist of the future is everyone who wants to know the truth.第II卷（非选择题）请修改第II卷的文字说明二、单词拼写3. ________(不像) the girl of her age, she dreamed of becoming a physicist.4.

And his life’s goal was to make it a forest.Dr. Gibbs had some interesting theories about planting. He talked about trees that weren’t watered would grow deep roots in search of water. So he never watered his trees. He planted an oak (橡树) and, instead of watering it every morning, he beat it with the rolled-up newspaper. I asked him why he did that, and he said it was to get the tree’s attention.Dr. Gibbs died a couple of years. Every now and again, I walk by his house and look at the trees that he planted twenty-five years ago. They’re very strong now.I planted a couple of trees a few years later.

On Christmas Eve when Ted came out of his office, a street urchin (顽童) was walking around the shining car. “Is this your car, Ted?” he asked.Ted answered, “Yes, my brother gave it for Christmas.” The boy was surprised. “You mean your brother gave it to you and it cost you nothing? Boy, I wish…” He hesitated(犹豫).Of course Ted knew what he was going to wish for. He wished he had a brother like that. But what the boy said surprised Ted greatly.“I wish,” the boy went on, “that I could be a brother like that.” Ted looked at the boy in surprise, and then said, “Would you like to take a ride in my car?” “Oh yes, I’d love that.”After a short ride, the boy turned and with hi s eyes shining, said, “Ted, would you mind driving in front of my house?”Ted smiled a little. He thought he knew what the boy wanted. He wanted to show his neighbours that he could ride home in a big car. But Ted was wrong again. “Will you stop where those two steps are?” the boy asked.He ran up to the steps. Then in a short while Ted heard him coming back, but he was not coming fast. He was carrying his little crippled (残疾) brother. He sat him down on the step and pointed to the car.“There she is, Buddy, just like I told you upstairs. His brother gave it to him for Christmas and it didn’t cost him a cent. And some day I’m going to give you one just like it… Then you can see for yourself all the nice things in the Christmas window that I’ve been trying to tell you about.”Ted got out and lifted the boy to the front seat of his car.

We started playing a game I called “dogs”, rolling on the floor like pups (小狗). Then I looked up and saw my mother watching us. She was crying.“He’s blind,” she said. “The doctor told me today.”I looked at Joey. He was laughing. “He can’t be blind,” I said. “He smiles at my face.”“He smiles at your voice,” she said. “He’ll never see your face.”That was that. Joey was blind. Mama went back to cooking. I went back to playing a dog. From the age of 8, Joey boarded at a school for the deaf and the blind, learning to read Braille (盲文). When he was 16, the school said he’d learned enough and sent him home with a Braille typewrit er. At 21, Joey moved out to live on his own, he said, “like a man,” in an apartment 30 miles (48 km) away. He learned to cook, clean, do his own laundry, and do almost anything else he needed.Then he met the love of his life. She, too, was blind. When Jo ey called to tell me, he said: “Even a blind man can fall in love at first sight.”They shared 10 good years before he lost her to cancer. Painfully soon after, he also lost our mother, who was his champion, and our stepfather, who was Joey’s best friend.What is left when you lose the loves of your life? My brother clung with an iron fist (拳头) to three gifts: Faith, hope and love.His faith grew stronger. He always had hope. And his love for his family has never gotten weaker, despite death or disappointment. Loved ones leave, but love remains.The years ahead may prove to be his hardest. His legs are growing weaker, threatening to take away the independence he’s fought so hard to keep.My sister and I often wonder what will happen if Joey can’t live on his own. It’s not up to us. We’ll do what we can, but it’s his life. He won’t have it any other way.You don’t find strength to do something until it’s time to do it. Joey has found it whenever he has needed it. I believe he will again.【1】When the author’s m other brought her little brother Joey back from the hospital, the author _____.A．was sad because he couldn’t see things clearlyB．immediately introduced him to the family dogC．worried that he might steal her mother’s love from herD．had great fun playing a game with him【2】Which of the following order of events is CORRECT according to the article?a.

At the age of ten he went to work. His employer had a large private library so Owen was able to educate himself. He read a lot in his spare time and at nineteen he was given the job of superintendent(监工) at a Manchester cotton mill. He was so successful there that he persuaded his employer to buy the New Lanark mill in Scotland.When he arrived at New Lanark it was a dirty little town with a population of 2,000 people. Nobody paid any attention to the workers' houses or their children's education. The conditions in the factories were very bad. There was a lot of crime and the men spent most of their wages on alcoholic drinks.Owen improved the houses. He encouraged people to be clean and save money. He opened a shop and sold the workers cheap, well-made goods to help them. He limited the sale of alcoholic drinks. Above all, he fixed his mind on the children's education. In 1816 he opened the first free primary school in Britain.People came from all over the country to visit Owen's factory. They saw that the workers were healthier and more efficient than in other towns. Their children were better fed and better educated. Owen tried the same experiment in the United States. He bought some land there in 1825, but the community was too far away. He could not keep it under control and lost most of his money.Owen never stopped fighting for his idea. Above all he believed that people are not born good or bad. He was a practical man and his ideas were practical. "If you give people good working conditions," he thought, "they will work well and, the most important thing of all, if you give them the chance to learn, they will be better people." 【1】For Owen, his greatest achievement in New Lanark was _____.A．improving worker's housesB．providing the children with a good educationC．helping people to save moneyD．preventing men from getting drunk【2】From the passage we may infer that Owen was born _____.A．into a rich family B．into a noble familyC．into a poor family D．into a middle class family【3】Owen's experiment in the United States failed because _____.A．he lost all his moneyB．people who visited it were not impressedC．he did not buy enough landD．it was too far away for him to organize it properly【4】We may infer from the passage that no children in Britain could enjoy free education until _____. A．1771B．1816C．1825D．18605.Swimming in the water of Hawaii’s Big Island is a fun experience. But it can be more exciting if there are dolphins swimming around and jumping out of the sea too. For many people, it would be a wonderful dream to swim with these lovely animals! However, this may not be good for dolphins. They may get hurt because of human interaction (互动).Dolphins are active and usually look for food at night. In the day, they like to rest in shallow bays(浅湾). Many people think the dolphins are awake during the day as they swim. But when they sleep they rest half of their brain and keep the other half awake to breathe, so they may be sleepi ng even when they’re swimming in the water.From 2010 to 2013, spinner dolphins (飞旋海豚) of Hawaii’s Big Island were exposed to human activities more than 82 percent of the time, according to Julian Tyne, a researcher at Australia’s Murdoch University.The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) says disturbing the animals in their near-shore habitat could force them to swim to less favorable places, putting them at risk of attack by sharks and other animals.Besides, when people are around, dolphins become more active. Thus, they can’t get enough sleep. “Disturbing their resting behaviors can actually affect their long term health and the health of the dolphin population,” Ann Garrett of NOAA’s National Marine Fisheries Service told the Assoc iated Press.As a result, the NOAA wants to make rules to help protect the dolphins. For example, the agency (机构) may ban swimming with the Hawaii spinner dolphins. Or they may stop people from swimming in shallow bays when the dolphins are resting. Tour operators must also be taught to watch for signs to know when the dolphins are in their resting state.【1】Which of the following about dolphins is NOT true?A．They spend most of their time sleeping at night.B．They like to stay in shallow bays during the day.C．They keep half of their brain awake while sleeping.D．They may be sleeping even when they’re swimming.【2】When dolphins are disturbed in their near-shore habitat, they _____.A．would swim to a crowded placeB．could move closer to sharksC．could become less activeD．could likely sleep longer【3】Which activity is against the rules?A．Swimming with the Hawaii spinner dolphins.B．Swimming in bays where the dolphins live.C．Making signs that show the dolphins’ resting state.D．Making signs that show where the dolphins are.【4】What does the article mainly talk about?A．What habits dolphins have.B．What spinner dolphins are.C．How the animals live in the sea.D．How to protect dolphins near the shore.二、完形填空There was a man who played the piano in a small bar.

Then I could see a large dark fish 43 under the water. All at once I was frightened to 44 .“A shark!” cried my u ncle. An anxious expression suddenly 45 on his face. He was thinking of how to save Tom. We 46 at my uncle and waited for him to take action.The fish came near. Now we could see him better. He was 47 a yellow-brown color and as big as our boat. What could we do to help Tom? He had been under water for more than an hour. So by now he must be very tired and it was difficult for him to swim fast enough to 48 the trouble. Thinking that Tom’s life was at great risk, my uncle could 49 it no longer. Without 50 he took his knife and jumped into the water. Down he went after the man-eating fish. The shark was 51 straight for Tom. 52 , suddenly, the fish turned. My uncle’s strong arm had 53 the knife deep into the side of the great fish. The water turned red as blood ran from the shark.Now Tom had time to reach the top. 54 he was safe in the boat. But the fish was 55 . He turned to 56 the man who had hurt him. As he swam to my uncle, he opened his great mouth. Again the knife went forward. This time it cut deep into the shark’s nose.For a minute the shark lay 57 . Now Uncle Harry was able to swim to the top. Tom quickly pulled him into the boat. It wasn’t long before the shark came to life.

Hunting Harp Seals is now illegal.The seals spend the summer months migrating (迁徙) in large groups. Harp Seals close their nostrils (鼻孔) and earholes when diving in water, but have to surface frequently to breathe. Their favourite place to rest is on the top of icebergs.The female Harp Seal gives birth in February or March and feeds her pups for 14-18 days. Baby Harp Seals begin to lose their white fur at around six to eight weeks of age. As an adult, the Harp Seal has brown skin. At birth, Harp Seals weigh 12kg but can weigh up to 130kg as adults. Harp Seals eat small fish, shrimps and krill. However, they are able to switch from one food to another depending on what they can get as food. Males have a lifespan of 29 years while females usually live for longer than 30 years.Since the Canadian Government introduced laws to protect the seal pups from hunters, their numbers have increased to more than one million.
