What is special about the party is that the door money is not going to me or some club owner. All door money will be donated to help children who are ill and need some kind of operation. That’s cool, isn’t it?And another important change, the party is not by invitation only, it is open to all. That means the invitation some of you have got is really just an announcement to help you remember the party and get there. So invite all your friends to come and be ready to dance, drink beer, and have some fun.。

There I was，walking home at one in the morning after a tiring practice at the theatre. With opening night only a week ago, I was still learning my lines.I was having trouble dealing with my part-time job at the bank and my acting at night at the same time. As I walked, I thought seriously about giving up both acting and San Francisco. City life had become too much for me.As I walked down empty streets under tall buildings, I felt very small and cold. I began running, both to keep warm and to keep away from any possible robbers. Very few people were still out except a few sad-looking homeless people under blankets.About a block from my apartment, I heard a sound behind me. I turned quickly, half expecting to see someone with a knife or a gun. The street was empty. All I saw was a shining streetlight. Still, the noise had made me nervous, so I started to run faster. Not until I reached my apartment building and unlocked the door did I realize what the noise had been. It had been my wallet falling to the sidewalk.Suddenly I wasn’t cold or tired anymore. I ran out of the door and back to where I’d heard the noise. Although I searched the sidewalk anxiously for fifteen minutes, my wallet was nowhere to be found.Just as I was about to give up the search, I heard the garbage truck pull up to the sidewalk next to me. When a voice called from the inside, “Alisa Camacho?” I thought I was dreaming. How could this man know my name? The door opened, and out jumped a small red-haired man with an amused look in his eye. “Is this what you’re looking for?” he asked, holding up a small square shape.It was nearly 3 A.M. by the time I got into bed. I wouldn’t get much sleep that night, but I had gotten my wallet back. I also had gotten back some enjoyment of city life. I realized that the city couldn’t be a bad place as long as people were willing to help each other.How did the writer feel when she was walking home after work?A. Cold and sickB. Fortunate and helpfulC. Satisfied and cheerfulD. Disappointed and helplessOn her way home the writer _________.A. lost her wallet unknowinglyB. was stopped by a garbage truck driverC. was robbed of her wallet by an armed manD. found some homeless people following herIn the fifth paragraph, why did the writer say she was dreaming?A. Someone offered to take her back home.B. A red-haired man came to see her.C. She heard someone call her nameD. Her wallet was found in a garbage truck.From the text, we can infer that the writer _________.A. would stop working at nightB. would stay on in San FranciscoC. would make friends with cleanersD. would give up her job at the bank.CSagrada FamiliaOpening hours: 09:00—18:00 (October—March); 09:00—20:00 (April—September)Admission: $ 11, or $ 10 with the Barcelona Card.The temple has been under construct ion since 1882 and they’ve still got another 30 to 80 years to go before it is finished.

The Chinese maker known for low-priced phones on Thursday unveiled (发布) a new model that Chairman Jun Lei said is comparable to Apple's iPhone 6 but thinner, lighter and much cheaper. The phone starts at 2, 299 yuan ($375), less than half the 5,288 yuan ($ 865) price of an iPhone 6 in China.Xiaomi, founded in 2010, passed South Korea's Samsung Electronics Co. in the second quarter of last year asthe best-selling smartphone brand in China by number of phones sold. The company is expanding into India and other developing markets but has yet to announce plans to enter the United States or Europe.Xiaomi "is a respected brand that already has an Apple-like following" in China, said analyst Brian Blair, who tracks mobile device makers at Rosenblatt Securities. Apple is still a relatively small player in China, selling about 45 million iPhones there last year, Blair estimates, but will continue to grow."Apple is very much a premium (高端的) brand," said Blair. "The company that's more at risk is Samsung, which has been losing share in that market."Privately held (私人控股的) Xiaomi said last year's sales tripled to 61. 1 million phones and revenue (收益) more than doubled to 74. 3 billion yuan ($12.2 billion). The company, based in Beijing, recently completed a round of fundraising from investors that it said valued Xiaomi at $ 45 billion, making it one of the world's most valuable technology brands.Xiaomi ran into legal trouble in India in December after a court blocked sales while it hears a complaint by Sweden's LM Ericcson that the Chinese company violated its patents.In a blog post earlier this month, Lei called the case a "rite of passage" (成年礼) for a young company.32. Which of the following statements is true?A. Xiaomi sold more cellphones than Samsung in 2010 in China.B. Compared to Xiaomi, Apple's iPhone 6 is thinner and lighter.C. Low-price is Xiaomi's advantage over Apple's iPhones.D. The company is expanding into the United States or Europe.33 .What can be inferred from the passage according to Brian Blair?A. More than 45 million iPhones will be sold this year.B. Xiaomi can beat Apple in the market of China.C. He thinks Xiaomi is superior to Apple.D. Samsung will be closed for losing share in the market.34 .How is the 5th paragraph developed?A. By giving examples.B. By analyzing cause and effect.C. By providing data.D. By making comparisons.35. What's the attitude of Jun Lei towards the case of Xiaomi in India?A. Negative.B. Satisfied.C. Positive.D. Doubtful.第二节七选五（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）Tips on How to Improve Your Self-Confidence[Do you have trouble building up your self-confidence? 36Everybody has troubl e building up one’s self- confidence in today’s world.

In much of the United States, winter means the return of snow.Snow is a form of frozen water. It contains many groups or very small ice particles called snow crystals(晶体). These crystals grow from water particles in cold clouds. They usually grow around a piece of dust. All snow crystals have six sides, but they grow in different shapes. The shape depends mainly on the temperature and water levels in the air. The shape of a snow crystal may change from one form to another as the crystal passes through levels of air with different temperatures. Snow contains much less water than rain. About seventy-five centimeters of snow has as much water as two and a half centimeters of rain.Generally, the color of snow and ice appears white. This is because the light we see from the sun is white. Most natural materials take in some sunlight. However, when light travels from air to snow, some light is sent back, or reflected(反射). Snow crystals have many surfaces to reflect sunlight. It is this light that gives snow its white color.Much of the water we use comes from snow. Melting snow gives water to rivers and crops. Snowfall helps to protect plants and some wildanimals from the cold. Fresh snow is made largely of air which is kept among the snow crystals. Because the air has trouble moving, the movement of heat is greatly reduced. However, snow is responsible for the deaths of hundreds of people in the United States every year. Many people die in traffic accidents on roads that are covered with snow or ice.28. In the center of a snow crystal there is .A. airB.dustC. waterD. sunlight29. If fifteen centimeters of snow completely melts, the height of water will be .A. 0.5 centimeterB. 1 centimeterC. 1.5 centimetersD. 15centimeters30. According to the text, snow looks white because .A. snow is actually whiteB. the ice particles are whiteC. here is a lot of air in the snowD. the reflection of light makes it look white31.How can snow protect plants from the cold?A. Snow gives them much heat.B. Snow turns into water and waters them.C. Snow makes them keep moving .D. Snow contains air which has trouble moving.DThe worlds native languages are dying out at an unprecedented(空前的) rate, taking with them irreplaceable(不能替代的) knowledge about thenatural world, according to a new study.The study identified five global hot spots where languages are vanishing faster than anywhere else ---- eastern Siberia, northern Australia, central South America, the US state of Oklahoma and the US Pacific Northwest. Languages are suffering a global extinction crisis that greatly goes beyond the pace of species extinction, linguistics(语言学的) professor David Harrison noted, who said half of the worlds 7,000 languages were expected to disappear before the end of the century.Native people had an intimate(详尽的) knowledge of their environment that was lost when their language disappeared, along with other certain things often unfamiliar to us, Harrison stressed. Most of what we know about species and ecosystems is not written down anywhere, its only in peoples heads, he said. We are seeing in front of our eyes the loss of the human knowledge base.Harrison was one of a team of linguists who carried out the study. The researchers traveled to Australia this year to study native languages, some of the most endangered. According to Harrison, in Australia, they were heartened to see a woman in her 80s who was one of the only three remaining speakers of the Yawuru language passing on her knowledge to schoolchildren. He said such inter-generational exchanges were the only way native languages could survive. The children had elected to take this course, no one forced them, he said. When we asked them why they werelearning it, they said,This is a dying language, we need to learn it. Also, while there they found a man with knowledge of the Amurdag language, which had previously been thought extinct.The researchers said all five of the hot spots identified were areas that had been successfully colonized and where a dominant language such as Spanish or English was threatening native tongues.32.What does this text mainly talk about?A.The knowledge of native languages.B.A study on native languages endangered.C.Peoples efforts in saving native languages.D.Harrison and his study on languages.33.The underlined wordvanishingin the second paragraph can be best replaced by .A.developingB.changingC.increasingD.disappearing34.According to Harrison, language extinction .A.results in lots of worriesB.speeds up the pace of species extinctionC.threatens the existing of Spanish and EnglishD.brings about a loss of knowledge about the environment35.According to the text, native languages were endangered partly because of .A.few researches done on themB.the small population of native peopleC.the strong influence of ruling languagesD.little education native people receive at school[MVC:PAGE]三、七选五(共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分)根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余选项。

AMy life began much like most children before my father left us. I grew up without knowing what a father was and no one was there to teach me how to behave and how to tell right from wrong. Because of this, I developed problems with alcohol and spent seven years as a boy in the street, before ending up in a rehab cli n 康复诊所）whe n I was 20.In side I met my coun selor（辅导员）,Bill, and he taught me a lot of thi ngs. The main thing was the gift of giving. It was the night before an important test and I was very nervous. Bill saw this and suggested that we should go out for a walk. As we walked and talked, Bill suggested we should go for a coffee. I told him I was broke, and when I got paid, I would pay him back. He stopped then and looked at me in a serious but loving way and said, "No, you won't."He told me that I didn 'otwe （欠） him anything and he was doing this because he wanted to. He then told me something that has followed me to this day, "One day you 'll be around someone and they 'll need a coffee, and you 'll be abl buy it for them. That 's how you can pay me back."I 'm a primary school teacher now; far away from the life I had ten years ago. My job is simple and I buy young people coffee . Bill taught me how to do that. 1．The author got into some bad habits because ______________________________________________ .A. his brothers or sisters didn him't teachB. he couldn 't get good school educationC. he didn 't have a father to teach and love himD. he was living in the street2．One night, Bill invited the author to go out for a walk to ______ .A. have a cup of coffeeB. teach the author a lessonC. make the author less nervousD. make friends with the author3．The underlined words "I was broke" in Paragraph 2 probably mean " ______ ".A.

They offer some activities to excite your kids' interest. Many offerworkshops for making hand-made pieces, traveling exhibits, book signings 签名） by children's favorite writers, and even musical performances and other arts.. Head to a natural history museum. This is where kids can discover the past from dinosaur models to rock collections and pictures of stars in the sky. Also, ask what kind of workshops and educationalprograms are prepared for kids and any special events that are coming up.. Go to a Youtheater. Look for one in your area offering plays for child and family visitors. Pre-show play shops are conducted by area artists and educators where kids can discover the secret about performing arts. Puppet （木偶） making and stage make-up are just a couple of the special offerings you might find.. Try hands-on science. Visit one of the many hands-on science museums around the country. These science play-lands are great fun for kids and grown-ups alike. They'll keep your child mentally andphysically active the whole day through while pushing buttons,experimenting, and building. When everyone is tired, enjoy a fun family science show, commonly found in these museums.CIn the past ten years, many scientists have studied the differences between men and wome n. And they all got the same an swer: The sexes 性另 S ） are differe nt, becausetheir brains are different. And this, the scientists say, makes men and women see the world in different ways.Boys, for example, generally are better than girls at mathematical ideas. Boys also generally are better than girls at the kind of hand and eye movements necessary for ball sports. Girls, on the other handgenerally start speaking earlier than boys. And they generally see better in the dark than boys and are better at learning foreign languages.What makes men and women better at one thing or another? The answer is the brain. The brain hastwo sides conn ected by n erve （神申经）tracks. The left side gen erally is used for mathematics, speech and writi ng. The right side is used for artistic creati on （仓 S 造）and the expressi on for emoti on s （情感）. I n men and wome n, differe nt areas in each side of thebrain develop differently. In boys, for example, it ' s the area used for mathematics. In gir it is the area used for language skills.

I still remember that the year when I started university. It was a very 1 time for me. Like many other new students I missed my mother’s cooking and my friends, got quite homesick and 2 thought of leaving university and going home.The 3 time for many students was getting letters from home, and at first my mailbox was full. But 4 the letters gradually became fewer and finally the day came when I found my mailbox was 5 . It made me feel quite miserable. Then one day while I was waiting for the postman I saw that I had a postcard in my box.
