I．阅读理解（共10小题；每小题2分，满分20分）(A)Together the two boys, who go to Escondido High School in California, have had the difficult job of learning in schools where the majority of the students can speak and hear. Orlando lost his hearing at the age of one．German was born deaf, and his parents moved from Mexico to find a school where he could learn sign language. He met Orlando on their first day of kindergarten.“We were in a special class with about 25 other deaf kids,” German remembers. “Before then, I didn't know I was deaf and that I was different. ”“Being young and deaf in regular classes was very hard, ”signs Orlando. “The other kids didn't understand us and we didn't understand them. But we've all grown up together, and today, I'm popular because I'm deaf. Kids try hard to communicate with me.”Some things are very difficult for the two boys. “We can't talk on the phone, so if we need help, we can't call an emergency service, ”German signs. “And we can't order food in a drive-thru.Despite their difficulties, he two boys have found work putting food in bags at a local supermarket. They got their jobs through a “workability” program, designed for teenagers from local schools with different types of learning disabilities. German has worked in the supermarket since August, and Orlando started in November. “The other people who work here have been very nice to us,”Orlando signs. “They even sign sometimes. At first, we were nervous, but we've learned a lot and we're getting better.”The opportunity to earn money has been exciting, both boys said. After high school, they hope to attend the National Technical Institute for the Deaf in New York.1. Orlando and German have been _____________.A. to Mexico togetherB. deaf since they were bornC. friends since they were very youngD. to different high schools2. The word “emergency” in paragraph 3 is closest in meaning to _______________.A. foodB. crisisC. alarm d. quick3. Both boys are happy to ________.A. have the opportunity to earn moneyB. work at the National Technical Institute for the DeafC. help students with learning disabilitiesD. design programs for the deaf(B)A British shopper, Emma Mumford, who was named “the Coupon(优惠券) Queen” has spent just ￡350 on a luxury Christmas for her and her family-but got ￡2,500 worth of food, drink and presents thanks to coupons and offers.Ms Mumford is a so-called “extreme couponer” and spends hours hunting out the best deals and bargains. She has been preparing for this Christmas since the end of the last one. Ms Mumford made the huge savings by checking price comparison websites and as a result collected more presents than she needed for Christmas. After sorting out gifts for all of her family, she has even been able to donate ￡1,000 worth of presents to her local hospital.“It has been so nice to have Christmas sorted and not having to worry about breaking the bank.I wanted to get high quality presents for my family and show that you can do it without spending a fortune. There is a misconception that everyone who does couponing only gets value products but through my careful shopping I have managed to purchase designer perfumes, a high-end coffee machine.” she explained.She said “What sta rted as a hobby to help me save money has turned into my life and I am able to run a business helping people save money. I know what it feels like to struggle as myex-partner had a lot of debt which I took on for him. We were in a poor situation where every penny counted. That’s what really inspired me.”She has now turned her bargain-hunting addiction into a business where she searches for the best deals and offer tips to the general public through video blogging and her Facebook Page.“I try and show peo ple that it is just a little bit of work in the beginning but it will eventually pay off. One of the best things to do is just to be a bit forward thinking and save throughout the year.”4. How did Emma make the huge savings?A. She compared prices through websites.B. She hunted out bargains in real shops.C. She used coupons and offers worth ￡2,500.D. She collected more Christmas presents than needed.5. What does “breaking the bank” in the third paragraph mean___________?A. Buying presents of low quality.B. Spending more money than you have.C. Breaking into the bank.D. Taking out money from the bank.6. What really inspired Emma to help people save money?A. Her addiction to bargain-hunting.B. The financial difficulties she shared with her ex-partner.C. The poor situation people around her were going through.D. Her experience of running an unsuccessful business.7. Which of the following can best describe Emma?A. Ambitious and creative.B. Sensitive and determined.C. Brave and lucky.D. Careful and caring.(C)While astronauts in space get to do many exciting things, they miss out on ordinary things that we will take for granted—being able to walk on firm ground, hanging out with family and digging into a slice of hot steaming pizza. Though not much can be done about the first two things, there may soon be a solution to the third one, thanks to this cool 3-D pizza printer!About a year ago, NASA offered $125 ,000 to Anjan Contractor, a 3-D technology expert, to build a device that would allow astronauts to make pizza on demand. The mechanical engineer promised that his invention would produce pies in large quantities that looked, tasted and even smelled like pizza made in common ovens.Late last year, the engineer presented a video of his first prototype (原型) that begins by creating a single slice of dough that is cooked and printed at the same time. Then comes the tomato sauce — a mix of tomato powder, oil and water and finally, a protein slice that resembles cheese. While the video doesn’t show the baking process, the inventor says that once the pizza is printed, it can be ready to be consumed in 7 seconds.While the pie in the video looks delicious enough to attract any pizza lover, Anjan Contractor is far from ready for astronauts. That’s because he still has to find a solution to make the food container in the printer last for 30 years. Though that may sound unrealistic, actually it is not.Anjan Contractor believes that the only way that is possible is that the water is removed from all the ingredients and then they are reduced to the powder form. This, as you can imagine, will not be so easy. But, while the printer may not be ready for space, it certainly looks ready enough for people on earth. Hopefully, NASA and Contractor will consider selling it to those not fortunate enough to go to Mars!8. NASA offered $ 125, 000 to Anjan Contractor mainly to _______.A. create some new type of 3-D printerB. attract more companies to work for NASAC. help astronauts in space enjoy fresh pizza one dayD. produce pizza in large quantities to earn great profits9.The biggest challenge that Anjan Contractor is faced with now is probably that _______.A. he has no money left to go on with his researchB. the pizza doesn’t seem appetizing to pizza loversC. he has no way to make pizza that can last for thirty yearsD. he cannot make the food container last for decades10. What’s the best title of the passage?A. NASA is trying its best to help astronauts eat betterB. Astronauts may soon be able to enjoy steaming hot pizzaC. NASA is working on making pizza for common peopleD. A 3-D pizza printer has been used to make pizzaII．七选五（共5小题，每题2分，满分10分）Figuring out how to invest your money can be a difficult task.

ARichie Kraus thinks all kids should receive birthday presents. And he's willing togive up his own presents to make that happen.When Richie was six, he helped collect holiday gifts for children whose familiescouldn't afford presents. He started thinking about how much he liked gettingpresents on his birthday. He asked his mom, "If we get kids presents during the holidays, who gets them presents on their birthdays?"Richie wanted to raise money for those birthday presents. So his mom helped him create the 2U Fund. The name 2U came from the well-known song "Happy Birthday to You."Richie explains how the fund works: "On our birthdays, we ask our friends to make a donation instead of giving us presents." Richie attaches a special sticker to his party invitations.

I had never been to Balboa Island, even though it is only about an hour from my home in northern San Diego.Our first stop was for a specialty called a "Balboa Bar". It is a famous chocolate covered ice cream on a stick, created many years ago. As we drove along the streets toward the boat, I also saw some interesting buildings that stood for many years. Many of the building designs seemed like dollhouses and someone in our group said that the style was called, Victorian.After we parked our car on one of the streets, we got on the boat sailing to Balboa Peninsula. As I looked around the boat, I saw a bird flying very close to the water and our boat. A little girl near the boat' s edge jumped out to touch it and shockingly fell into the water! Her dad, who stoodnearby, jumped in after her at once and everyone on the boat ran to help. The boat's engine stopped and both father and daughter got saved with the help of people on the boat.On Balboa Peninsula my family and I went to various shops, especially for food! We saw a restaurant at the very end. We enjoyed our lunch there, at the first Ruby's Diner ever opened in southern California. Although I have been to other restaurants of this popular chain (连锁店), being at the very first is a great memory.On our way back to Balboa island we stopped at the huge Ferris Wheel, bought some sugars and played games. It was an exciting afternoon walking around on Balboa Island. I look forward to returning soon to spend some time on the beach again or maybe even to try fishing!27.

And their intake of starchy carbohydrates (含淀粉的碳水化合物), fibre, iron,vitamins and calcium (钙) is too low.For a growing body, eating foods containing plenty of calcium, such as milk, yoghurt and cheese, is very important as calcium is essential for the development of healthy, strong bones. Similarly, foods that are rich in iron are good for young rapidly developing bodies, so red meat, bread, green vegetables, and dried fruit are also good to eat.It is during our teenage years that lifestyle habits can become entrenched (根深蒂固的), so it is important that young people are educated about what foods are good for them. In 2005, in order to change eating habits and open teenagers' minds to new tastes, chef Jamie Oliver started a "Feed Me Better" project. As part of a television series, "Jamie' s School Dinners", he worked with teachers and cooks in a number of schools across the UK to provide more nutritious school meals. Although some teenagers and parents refused to have a try at first, the project went very well and helped to influence governmental policy on nutritional standards for school meals.No one expects to end the teenage love affair with fast and junk food but, hopefully, if projects like "Feed Me Better" continue to give out the right messages, more young people will understand the importance of eating healthily.32. What problem do teenagers in the UK have?A. Most of them are too fat.B. Most of them eat too little.C. Many of them don' t eat healthily.D. Many of them are short of exercise.33.

According to the text, the "Feed Me Better" project __A. proved to be a successB. taught teachers how to cookC. was started by the governmentD. was started at Jamie's school first35. Which of the following opinions does the author probably agree to?A. Lifestyle habits are difficult to change.B. Too much red meat is also bad for health.C.
