He tilted his head toward the chair next to mine, and then toward my suitcase blocking the chair. There were many open seats. Why did he choose this one? I thought. When he sat, I noticed the markings on his bag and his faded camouflage(迷彩服) uniform.He told me he had just come from Afghanistan. He was going home for a few days of leave. He said it was almost harder to leave the war than to stay, leaving others behind. But he had to go back and this might be his last chance to see his mom.I remember how he scanned the room warily(谨慎地) as he talked and when he looked at me, his eyes kept no distance. He seemed to want something from me. I could not tell what it was.He said it was hard to stop scanning for danger. The day before, he’d been in the desert. Fellow soldiers, men under his command, had been blown into pieces around him. This day, he was in an airport trying to u nderstand the anger over flight delays, and the rush for coffee. He didn’t know how to be, here in this place.I thought maybe I understood. Only weeks before, my friend’s teenage son had died suddenly. One evening, after spending still hours with a broken mother, I went to my daughter’s theatre performance. In the crowded lobby before the show, mothers complained about their seats and other small slights. I felt disoriented and distant. I told the soldier about this. He breathed deeply and showed a small smile. I had given him a sliver of connection.He’d seen something raw during his military service. He knew what was real and mattered. When he returned, he found it was hard for him to experience the peace. But he did not know how to tell us. I realized this was what he needed from me. He did not want the seat beside mine. He wanted to sit with me. He needed to feel safe and understood for a brief while between here and there.I did not know his name, and how long his tour of duty would last. I hoped his mother had a strong heart. We sat together until our flights were called and then said goodbye as the two strangers heading home.24. The young man approached the author probably because ______.A. the seat next to the author’s was availableB. he had a favor to ask the authorC. he needed to find someone to feel his feelingsD. the author was his mother’s age25. The young man felt a connection with the author ______.A. after listening to the author’s experienceB. by telling the author his experiences in the warC. by just sitting still next to the authorD. after realizing what really mattered26. The underlined word “raw” in Paragraph 6 is closest in meaning to ______.A. originalB. painfulC. strongD. moving27. Which of the following can be the best title of the passage?A. The City and the WarB. Two Strangers at the AirportC. Going HomeD. Sitting with a SoldierCBee see, bee do. At least that’s the conclusion of research published earlier this month in the journal PLOS Biology, showing that bumblebees learn to solve problems by watching each other. In the first study of its kind in insects, scientists constructed experiments that challenged bees to pull strings(绳) in order to access rewards of nectar(花蜜).The scientists hoped their study would throw light on a bigger picture: how social learning spreads through a population.In the study, Lars Chittka from Queen Mary University of London and his team made artificial flowers and filled them with artificial nectar made of sugar water. They put the flowers under a clear type of plastic and attached a string.Then they added bees. While most of the insects failed to reach the nectar, a few eventually figured out how to access it, by pulling the string.The team discovered that they could greatly increase the success rate of the bees by first placing them inside a transparent box where they could observe an experienced bee pull the string. Then, when the boxed bees were released, they often knew what to do and successfully pulled the string to obtain nectar.Next, the researchers added a bee that was experienced in string pulling to each of three new groups that had never seen the experiment before. Within a short time, about half of all those bees were soon pulling the strings. That result suggests the learned behaviour could spread from bee to bee, similar to the way cultural ideas spread in other animals, including people.The experiment suggests that social learning may be more widespread in the animal kingdom than people previously thought.28. What happened after the bee pulled the string?A. It joined others.B. It saw flowers.C. It found water.D. It got nectar.29. What did the boxed bees do after being set free?A. They watched the experienced bee work.B. They imitated the experienced bee.C. They flew directly to the rewards.D. They flew back to the box.30. Why was an experienced bee added to new bee groups?A. To reduce the difficulty of the experiment.B. To watch the process of string pulling.C. To carry the experiment further.D. To keep the bees’ interest.31. What does the study find?A. Most animals create their own cultures.B. Strings are particularly attractive to bees.C. Animals may have good social learning ability.D. Bumblebees may be smarter than other bee species.DSpeaking in an interview, Nicky Morgan, the UK Education Secretary said that reality TV shows, such as the X Factor make people think they can have instant success, but it isn’t the case. Realistic, inspiring role models should be put in front of youngsters and children must be taught that there are no shortcuts to success and that instant fame and money do not happen overnight. Speaking to The House Magazine — the weekly magazine of the Houses of Parliament(国会), Ms Morgan said, “It took me 21 years from joining the Conservative Party as a 16-year-old to being elected as a Member of Parliament for the first time in Loughborough. It’s a long journey, but when you get there, the feeling of accomplishment is huge. The entrepreneurs(企业家) and successful actors and great musicians always worked really hard to fulfill their dream.As for the part of teachers and schools, Ms. Morgan said, “What I want to see in teacher training is more about character education and getting teachers to really think about it.” She added, “Tea- chers should know character education is much more important than the transmission of knowledge and we think the best schools and the best teachers should know how they can build strong, resilient(适应性强的), courageous and determined young people. It is about setting high expectations and ambitions for them.”In response to the recent figures from the previous analysis of the Education Select Committee: just 28.3 percent of poor white boys achieved five GCSEs at grade A to C, including English and maths. Ms Mor gan said, “In working class families: parents often have no idea what it means leaving school without qualifications and all they should do is to support their children to learn some skills.”32. From what Nicky Morgan said in Paragraph 1, we can learn ______.A. people are likely to be misled by reality TV showsB. some successful people know the factors of success betterC. the adults are supposed to set good examples for the youngD. what people think is different from what happens in reality33. Why does Nicky Morgan mention her experience?A. To prove the truth that time and tide wait for no man.B. To remind people to enjoy the pleasure of travelling.C. To show that it’s no use daydreaming about succes s.D. To make people know success comes from hard work.34. What is Paragraph 3 mainly about?A. The purpose of educating the young people.B. The advantage of best schools and best teachers.C. Training teachers to own good character is important.D. Character education is important in the school.35. What should parents in working class families do?A. Try to improve themselves by teaching themselves.B. Accept the different results of their children’s exams.C. Be aware of the importance of receiving education.D. Teach their children some effective learning skills.第二节(共5小题；每小题2分, 满分10分)根据短文内容, 从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

I have tried never to let my profession stand in the way of being a good parent.I no longer consider myself the center of the universe. I show up. I listen. I try to laugh. I am a good friend to my husband. I have tried to make marriage vows(誓约) mean what they say. I am a good friend to my friends, and they to me. Without them, there would be nothing to say to you today.So here"s what I wanted to tell you today: Get a life. A real life, not a desire of the next promotion , the bigger paycheck, the larger house.Get a life in which you are not alone. Find people you love, and who love you. And remember that love is not leisure , it is work. Pick up the phone. Send an e-mail. Write a letter. And realize that life is the best thing and that you have no business taking it for granted.It is so easy to waste our lives, our days, our hours, our minutes. It is so easy to exist instead of to live. I learned to live many years ago. Something really, really bad happened to me, something that changed my life in ways that, if I had my choice, it would never have been changed at all. And what I learned from it is what, today, seems to be the hardest lesson of all.I learned to love the journey, not the destination. I learned to look at all the good in the world and try to give some of it back because I believed in it, completely and totally. And I tried to do that, in part, by telling others what I had learned. By telling them this: Read in the backyard with the sun on your face. Learn to be happy. And think of life as a deadly illness, because if you do, you will live it with joy and passion as it ought to be lived. 60.How did the writer form her view of life 、A.The author likes travelling very muchB.The author did not try her best to work wellC.The author spent all her time caring for childrenD.The author is a success in personal lifeCDo you know how it is when you see someone yawn and you start yawning too? Or how hard it is to be among people laughing and not laugh yourself? Well, apparently it"s because we have mirror neurons (神经元）in our brains.Put simply, the existence of mirror neurons suggests that every time we see someone else do something, our brains imitate (模仿)it, whether or not we actually perform the same action. This explains a great deal about how we learn to smile, talk, walk, dance or play sports. But the idea goes further: mirror neurons not only appear to explain physical actions y they also tell us that there is a biological basis for the way we understand other people.Mirror neurons can undoubtedly be found all over our brains, but especially in the areas which relate to our ability to use languages, and to understand how other people feel. Researchers have found that mirror neurons relate strongly to language. A group of researchers discovered that if they gave people sentences to listen to ( for example: "The hand took hold of the ball" ) , the same mirror neurons were triggered as when the action was actually performed (in this example, actually taking hold of a ball).Any problems with mirror neurons may well result in problems with behavior. Much researeh suggests that people with social and behavioral problems have mirror neurons which are not fully functioning. However, it is not yet known exactly how these discoveries might help find treatments for social disorders.Research into mirror neurons seems to provide us with ever more information concerning how humans behave and interact(互动）.Indeed, it may turn out to be the equivalent (相等物）for ncurosciencc of what Einstein"s theory of relativity was for physics. And the next time you feel the urge to cough in the cinema when someone else does—well, perhaps you"ll understand why.63.Mirror neurons can explain __________ .A.why we cry when we are hurtB.why we cough when we suffer from a coldC.why we smile when we see someone else smileD.why we yawn when we see someone else stay up late64.The underlined word "triggered" in the third paragraph probably means __________A.set offB.cut offC.built upD.broken up65.We can learn from the passage that mirror neurons __________.A.relate to human behavior and interactionB.control human physical actions and feelingsC.result in bad behavior and social disordersD.determine our knowledge and language abilities66.What is the passage mainly about?A.Ways to find mirror neurons.B.Problems of mirror neurons.C.Existence of mirror neurons.D.Functions of mirror neurons.V.Translation67.他提醒我，面试已推迟到下周。

You made me feel important and showed m e that I could make a difference.”Mrs. Thompson, with tears in her eyes, whispered back, “Ted dy, you have it all wrong.

But they may be surprised to learn that they’re much lucki er than their peers (同龄人) in South Korea and Japan, according to a recently publish ed report, conducted by Shanghai Academy of Social Science s on the physical(身体的) and mental(精神的) health of senior high school students in the three Asian co untries.According to the study among nearly 6,000 high school stude nts in the three countries, Chinese students are the tallest but poorest in physical fitness. Chinese students are on average 168.17cm, compared with 167.61cm for South Korean studen ts and 164.70cm for Japanese students. Chinese students as ked for sick leave(病假) more than students in other countries. About 72 percent of Korean students never asked for sick and injury leave during high school, compared to 53 percent for Japanese students a nd 45 percent forChinese students. Moreover, Chinese stude nts drink alcohol(酒精) and smoke earlier than Korean and Japanese students.

The schoolmates seemed to regard me as a fool, and they were probably right.Despite(尽管) my fears, after the first week I finally had my schedule(时刻表、进度表) figured out. Except falling up and down the stairs a couple of times and getting laughed at, high school was turning out(证明是) to be not so bad. It was actually much better than middle s chool and much more challenging.Since then, I've been elected(选举) vice monitor of my class, which wasn't much of a victory si nce only three people ran for（参加...竞选） the four positions.It is normal to be scared(害怕) about a new school.

Now go to paint the same painting again and give it to me.”Then they went to the same street the next morning and put the same painting exactly at the same place. Now the master took out another board which read, "Gentlemen, I have painted this piece. I might have made some mistakes in my painting. I have put a box with colors and brushes just below. If you see a mistake, pick up the brush and correct it. " Two days later, they came back to the place.

We all like to feel close to someone. It is nice to have a friend to talk， laugh and do things with. Surely， 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，which doesn’t mean that 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 much， but we can call them and write to them. Maybe we would 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 this way. So are some schools. We think of these people when we go to these places.There’s more good news f or people who have friends. They live longer than those people who don’t. 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. 9．The first paragraph tells us ________.A．none needs friendsB．we need to be aloneC．we always need friends around usD．making friends is the need in people’s life10．Which of the following is the most probable place people name after friendly people?A．A house.

This term, my favorite teacher, Miss Mao, no longer teaches us. I want to see her, but I’m afraid that she no longer likes me and I don’t want to trouble her. I really miss her. What should I do?T ian YanDear Tian Yan,It’s bad luck that you have lost your favorite teacher. But, if she is still in your school, nothing can stop you going to see her. When she isn’t busy, ask her if she minds having a quick chat. You can then tell her she was your favorite teacher—everyone is happy to know that he or she is liked!If she has left the school, it will be more difficult to meet her. It will be hard, but remember people always come and go in their lives. We can’t rely on them to be with us all the time.You may be sad to say goodbye to her, but we can remember and learn from her. Think of her best qualities.You could also try looking for similar qualities in your other teachers. Study hard and give your new teacher a chance.

If your dad worships（崇拜）the Pittsburgh Stealers,you're likely to grow up being a big fan of that football team.And if your mom loves to read,you just might grow up carrying a book wherever you go,just like she does.Here are four ways you can stay.close:and build a strong relationship with your parents.(1)Spent time together.How much time do you spend just enjoying each other’s company?Instead of playing a computer game or watching TV,maybe you can ask your mom and dad to play with you.Go outside together,try a board game,or read a book out.(2)Share your feelings and ask for help.Your mom or dad might not know that you're having a problem.Tell a parent if you're sad or struggling with something.(3)Show your care.Some families are always kissing,hugging,and saying "I love you".It's important to show that you care for each other.In addition to kisses and hugs,kids and parents show their love by respecting each other, being caring,polite,and thoughtful.(4)Whatever you do,do your best!You,don't have to be perfect,but when you do your best,you make your parents proud.It makes them happy to see how you're turning into such a great kid.Why?Because it lets them know they’re doing a good job.24.The first paragraph mainly tells us_______.A.the Pittsburgh Stealers is a famous football teamB.the kid will like reading if his or her mother likesC.parents influence their kids greatlyD.we should follow our parents' hobbies25.In the third paragraph,the author suggests that_______.A.you keep your parents company all the timeB.you stay at home with your parentsC.you enjoy games when your parents watch TVD.you do something together with your parents26.The underlined part "they're doing a good job" means_______. .A.they have very good jobsB.their jobs can bring the family much moneyC.they make you become a great kidD.they make you find a good job27.The text intends to tell us_______.A.parents are important to everyoneB.how we get along with our parentsC.to respect our parentsD.to share feelings with our parentsCThe first night in Yosemite had been awful．I hadn’t been able to sleep and I was stu ck in a too small tent with my wife and two kids．“Things haven’t worked out．”I said to myself．But，like so many other things I complain before my morning coffee，this one was extremely off-key. Things weren’t bad；they were good．A hundred yards away was Summit Lake．It was beautiful．We fired up the camp stove and boiled up a cup of coffee．Half an hour later，my 6-year-old daughter and I were in the parking lot of the Lassen Peak Trail，getting ready to hike．We wouldn’t make it all the way—young legs get pretty tired on a steep mountain path—but it didn’t matter．We would see great views spread out below us，the volcanic(火山的)ash that layered on the earth turning the melting snow a mysterious pink as the sun struck it．Later，during the hike，I felt stupid about my morning complaints．Everything had been worthwhile．It gave me great satisfaction to see my daughter so excited about the view from the mountain．Yes，camping is uncomfortable．But there’s also something wonderful about being so close to nature．Just as importantly，there’s someth ing about getting young children out of their increasingly technology-filled comfort zones and forcing them to experience the non-cyber (没有网络的)world around them．It’s a good thing to reconnect every so often with the Great Outdoors．28. How did the author first feel about camping in Yosemite?A. Uncomfortable.B. Shocked.C. Excited.D. Wonderful.39.
