Thick clouds prevent the moonlight from lighting up the wayahead. Yet, as my eyes begin to get used to the darkness, the landscape around me reveals itself in a new light.Mount Caburn, an iron-age hill fort (堡垒), looks like shadows against the sky. On the horizon is a tree bent by the wind. The rocky outcrop (露出的部分) at the top of the field turns out to be a flock of sleeping sheep. A fox cries, a pheasant crows, and the air is full of a strong earthy scent.“For most of human history, man lived in close contact with the land,” says Nigel Berman, my guide. “Only in the past few hundred years have we shut ourselves off from our natural surroundings. Walking at night is a powerful way of reconnecting. When your vision is reduced, your other senses are sharpened.”Nigel and I walk from the village of Glynde across the South Downs towards the town of Lewes. It is a walk I know well by day, but at night everything is different, and a familiar wander becomes a mini adventure. When Nigel told me not to bring a torch, I was alarmed. I can’t remember the last time I used my night vision and I’m not even sure how it works.Normally, at this time of night, I would be having a glass of wine in front of the television, but being out in the countryside is a purer form of relaxation. I forget about work and family tensions, and begin to blend into the surroundings. There is no one other than Nigel to see or hear me and, with little visual distraction, my mind calms. I am aware of the breeze on my face, the rustle (沙沙声) of leaves, and as I watch the clouds slowly changing color against the sky like a natural sound and light show, it feels fascinating.Having got used to the dark, we continue walking and the path that leads up the escarpment (峭壁) of Saxon Down now appears to almost shine in front of us. We climb carefully, feeling our way on the uneven ground. Walking at night is not without risk, but with knowledge and preparation it opens up a new side to walking.As we reach the top, Lewes appears below as a twinkly mass of lights, a sight I would generally consider as inviting. In just a few hours, however, I find myself unwilling to walk back down. Walking at night is like discovering a new world on your doorstep. As Henry David Thoreau wrote in Night and Moonlight: “Night is certainly more novel and less profane (世俗的) than day.”41．According to Nigel Berman, why is walking at night significant?A．It helps people appreciate natural surroundings.B．It is a way to take risks and explore new places.C．It improves our vision and sharpens other senses.D．It makes us avoid distractions from work and family.42．Why did the author feel alarmed when Nigel told them not to bring a torch?A．He was afraid of getting lost in the dark.B．He hardly had any trust in Nigel as a guide.C．He didn’t know how to use his night vision.D．He worried about the way on uneven ground.43．The night walk brought the following benefits to the author except ________.A．a reconnection with natureB．a chance of abandoning wineC．an escape from daily tensionsD．an approach to getting relaxed44．What can we learn about the author from the article? A．He had gone for a walk on his own at night before.B．He intentionally picked a cloudy night for his walk.C．He enjoyed the feeling after reaching the top of the mountain.D．He badly wanted to go home to have a glass of wine after the walk.45．What is the article mainly about?A．Describing his night hike through the countryside.B．Contrasting the experience of day and night walking.C．Encouraging readers to go on a night walk themselves.D．Exploring the history of human connection with nature.In 2016, the world’s population cast aside 49 million tons of electronic waste, known as e-waste. It has been calculated that this number will grow to more than 60 million tons by 2021.What is causing the upsurge (激增) in e-waste? Technology is becoming more and more widespread, covering almost every aspect of our lives. Meanwhile, the lifespan of devices is getting shorter—many products will be thrown away once their batteries die, to be replaced by new devices. Companies intentionally plan the obsolescence (过时) of their goods by updating the design or software and discontinuing support for older models, so that now it is usually cheaper and easier to buy a new product than to repair an old one. Since prices are falling, electronic devices are in demand around the world.A minute eating ice-cream is not the same as a minute doing push-ups. Even time itself isn’t a uniform raw material—as the physics of Einstein shows. Try to let go of the idea that time is linear (直线型), regular and objective, and think of it in the same way we experience it. Instead of setting work and life against each other, use pauses to leaven (为增色) your experience. Pause is like yeast (酵母): you don’t need much, but it is a vital ingredient.I want to give pauses more visibility, importance and status. My hope is that each of us can use pauses, great and small, to avoid sliding into a mode where we act like poorly performing machines.51．What can we learn from the first two paragraphs?A．The widespread use of machines has destroyed our life.B．People have become quite obsessed with response speed.C．People always get pleasure from competing with machines.D．It’s difficult for people to adapt to a highly mechanized life.52．The underlined phrase “Ticking things off the ‘to do’ list” in paragraph 3 is closest in meaning to ________. A．learning to slow downB．concentrating on one thingC．selecting what we should doD．getting things done one by one53．According to the author, how does taking a pause benefit us in a busy life?A．It makes your life dynamic and delightful.B．It improves our working efficiency greatly.C．It helps develop interpersonal connections.D．It enables people to do what they want to do.54．Which of the following statements best sums up the author’s understanding of time?A．Time can never get returned.B．Time exists in the form of lines.C．Time is precious that we all need to cherish.D．Time is what everyone experiences uniquely.55．What message does the author want to convey about “pauses” at the end of the passage?A．They are useless if taken for short periods of time.B．They are for those who have too much spare time.C．They play a vital role in our well-being and creativity.D．They bring harm to our ability to perform efficiently.59．What brought Bella back to the Harrisons a few years after its original stay? (No more than 10 words)________________60．How does Bella’s story inspire you? Please explain in your own words. (no more than 20words)________________五、其他应用文61．假设你是天津中学学生李津，你校的英语学习社发起了关于“True Beauty”的征文活动，邀请同学们发表自己对美的看法，请根据以下提示写一篇征文稿，内容应包括：1．你认为什么是“真正的美”；2．你认为“真正的美”表现在哪些方面并举例说明；3．呼吁同学们都做“真正美”的人。

She didn’t like it so much that her dad filed a complaint in federal court about it. He said that the teacher, who is white, discriminated against his daughter, who is black. He hoped to have her grade changed from a C to an A and asked for unspecified financial damages(赔偿金).Virginia Brown is in the ninth grade at Ashley High School. Since her first year in school, she had had perfect attendance and all her grades had been A’s. Virginia’s fathersaid her heart was broken when she got the C.“She cried the whole weekend,” he said. “She wouldn’t come out of her room.

She’s on the swim team, the volleyball team, and the track team. She also belongs to the chess club…The home economics teacher is 28-year-old Jessica Smith. This is her first year teaching.

He said that Virginia was an excellent student who would have no problem getting into the best universities even with a C in cooking. “She won’t have any diffic ulty finding a great university, but she might have problems finding a husband,” he laughed. “She’d better look for a man who likes to eat out a lot.”51.

I don't know anything about girls," Louisa May Alcott told her publisher, Mr. Niles. But she was desperate for money. She seemed to be the only one in her family who could make any money. Niles had asked her to write about something she knew, instead of the romantic adventure stories she had been writing. "So I plod away," Alcott wrote, "though I don't enjoy this sort of thing." It was 1867, and the horrible Civil War was over. Now Alcott could turn her energy to making money.Alcott wrote a simple story of life in her family, their pillow fights on Saturday nights and the amateur (业余的) plays they performed. "Our experiences may prove interesting, though I doubt it." ("Good joke," she wrote years later.) Her book described her days growing up with four sisters in a family that had no money. She sketched (勾画) a loving mother who took time to be interested in each child, and she told of the death of a beloved sister. She portrayed her family and friends in her book Little Women. Finally, in July of 1868, she finished writing. With a sigh and a headache, she sent off all 102 handwritten pages of her book.Niles thought the book was dull, and so did Alcott. But when she received her copies of the book, Alcott thought it seemed better than expected. "Not a bit sensational," she wrote, "but simple and true. We really lived most of it." Niles asked some girls to read Little Women, and they loved it.In three months, all the copies of Little Women had sold. It was already time to print more books! Niles thought he could sell three or four hundred more copies. "An honestpublisher and a lucky author made a dull book into a golden egg for an ugly duckling," Alcott wrote in 1885. Later, with a great sigh of relief, she was able to write, "Paid off all the debts! Now I feel that I could die in peace. If my head holds out, I'll do all I once hoped to do."56. Which of the following would be used to describe Alcott's book?A. Funny.B. Boring.C. Magic.D. Skillful.57. In which order did the following happen?a. Alcott began writing Little Womenb. Niles asked Alcott to write about girlsc. Alcott wrote romantic adventure storiesd. Alcott performed plays with her sisterse. Niles was not pleased with Alcott's work.A. a, b, e, d, cB. d, c, a, b, eC. c, b, e, d, aD. d, c, e, b, a58. When she handed her first writing in, Niles was _________.A. sure of her successB. happy about her workC. unsatisfied with the workD. unpleased with the publisher59. Alcott took up writing as a job due largely to _________.A. loveB. povertyC. interestD. encouragement60. We learn from the story that, after Little Women sold out, _________.A. Alcott wrote another bookB. some girls started to read the bookC. Alcott paid off all her billsD. Niles published hundreds of books girls likedCIn this age of Internet chat, videogames and reality television, there is no shortage of mindless activities to keep a child occupied. Yet, despite the competition, my 8-year-old daughter Rebecca wants to spend her leisure time writing short stories. She wants to enter one of her stories into a writing contest, a competition she won last year.As a writer I know about winning contests, and about losing them. I know what it is like to work hard on a story only to receive a rejection slip from the publisher. I also knowthe pressures of trying to live up to a reputation created by previous victories. What if she doesn’t win the contest again? That’s the strange thing about being a parent. So many of our own past scars and dashed hopes can surface.A revelation (启示) came last week when I asked her, “Don’t you want to win again?” “No,” she replied, “I just want to tell the story of an angel going to first grade.”I had just spent weeks correcting her stories as she spontaneously (自发地) told them. Telling myself that I was merely an experienced writer guiding the young writer across the hall, I offered suggestions for characters, conflicts and endings for her tales. The story about a fearful angel starting first grade was quickly “guided” by me into the tale of a little girl with a wild imagination taking her first music lesson. I had turned her contest into my contest without even realizing it.Staying back and giving kids space to grow is not as easy as it looks. Because I know very little about farm animals who use tools or angels who go to first grade, I had to accept the fact that I was co-opting (借用) my daughter’s experience.While stepping back was difficult for me, it was certainly a good first step that I will quickly follow with more steps, putting myself far enough a way to give her room but close enough to help if asked. All the while I will be reminding myself that children need room to experiment, grow and find their own voices.61. What do we learn from the first paragraph?A. Children do find lots of fun in many mindless activities.B. Rebecca is much too occupied to enjoy her leisure time.C. Rebecca draws on a lot of online materials for her writing.D.A lot of distractions compete for children’s time nowadays.62. What did the author say about her own writing experience?A. She did not quite live up to her reputation as a writer.B. Her way to success was full of pains and frustrations.C. She was constantly under pressure of writing more.D. Most of her stories had been rejected by publishers.63. Why did Rebecca want to enter this year’s writing contest?A. She believed she possessed real talent for writing.B. She was sure of winning with her mother’s help.C. She wanted to share her stories with readers.D. She had won a prize in the previous contest.64. The author took great pains to refine（to improve）her daug hter’s stories because _______.A. she believed she had the knowledge and experience to offer guidanceB. she did not want to disappoint Rebecca who needed her help so muchC. she wanted to help Rebecca realize her dreams of becoming a writerD. she w as afraid Rebecca’s imagination might run wild while writing65. What’s the author’s advice for parents?A. A writing career, though attractive, is not for every child to pursue.B. Children should be allowed freedom to grow through experience.C. Parents should keep an eye on the activities their kids engage in.D. Children should be given every chance to voice their opinions.DWhen it comes to intelligence, human beings are the top dogs of the animal kingdom. But in recent years, scientists have been documenting surprising intelligence and emotional depth in animals ranging from honeybees to elephants. Here are some amazing examples.Artistic Monkey BusinessJanet Schmid, director of the Little River Zoo in Norman, Oklahoma, learned a lot about the intelligence of capuchin monkeys. She and her husband adopted a young male, named Bailey. The capuchin particularly liked taking car rides, insisting that he insert the key and ride in the front passenger’s seat.Now Bailey has become a devoted painter. He uses brushes to create colorful, abstract paintings, and prefers not to be disturbed.Prairie Dog SoundThrough a variety of birdlike sounds, prairie dogs warn each other of approaching creatures. They demonstrate a surprisingly complex communication system. In his 25 years of study, Slobodchikoff, a professor of biology, has recorded them pronouncing ten nouns including hawk, deer and coyote, a number of adjectives to identify color, size and shape, and even some verbs to indicate speed.In an ongoing study, Slobodchikoff learns that their brain contains a very extensive vocabulary. He once used his best prairie dog sound to say coyote, and they just looked at him in anger as if he had said a bad word.One African grey parrot Alex is said to have the cognitive abilities of a five-year-old child. Alex can identify 50 different objects, seven colors, five shapes, quantities up to six, and the concepts of bigger, smaller, same and different.Also Alex is considered to make reasoned decisions. During an experiment, researchers gave Alex different-colored blocks in sets of two, three and six. When asked which color group had five blocks, Alex replied, “None.”And he answered the same in repeated tests. Obviously, he interpreted the concept of “none” as an absence of quantity all on his own. That’s a lot like a high school student answering questions on a quiz show.66. Which of the following is true?A. Bailey is as clever as a child of five.B. The prairie dog loves taking car rides.C. The capuchin monkey is fond of painting.D. Alex develops a communication system.67. The underlined word “coyote” in Paragraph 4 refers to .A. a verbB. an animalC. a warningD. an adjective68. The African grey parrot Alex can .A. answer questions on a quiz showB. understand the figure “7”C. identify five colors and seven shapesD. apply the concept of “none” correctlyEHOW TO BOOKBooking opens for Beckett Shorts on 8 SeptemberBY TELEPHONEFor credit card bookings.
