I have Asperger’s syndrome, a form of autism (自闭症). I don’t see myself as a person with a disability. I share who I am when I paint, sing and write.I started writing poetry because I wanted to tell people what it was like to have Asperger’s syndrome. I don’t know how my life would be different without Asperger’s, but I know I look at the world differently than most people. I’m also learning that you don’t have to be like everybody else. You just have to be confident in who you are.I discovered I could paint when I was 7. My math teacher Mrs. Brock loved one of my paintings so much that she hung it on the wall in her bedroom. I was so encouraged by her and since then my life has changed greatly.Soon after, people asked me to show my art for charity events. I began to donate prints of my work for charity auctions (拍卖). I was glad that I really made a difference. I learned that when you give, you receive happiness.I think it is very important for teens to express themselves. It’s a way to know yourself more clearly. You can turn your thoughts and feelings into a piece of artwork or a poem.For example, when you paint, colors can help you express different emotions. When you write a poem, you have to get really honest with yourself and not be afraid to write down what you feel.Creativity makes you unique and sets you apart from others. Creative ideas also help you make your dreams come true. They help you look at things in a new way.I hope my story helps people to believe they can overcome their challenges and achieve their dreams. I like to encourage others. I know what encouragement has meant to me.36. The author mentions Mrs. Brock because she ______.A. taught the author how to paintB. found the author had a gift for paintingC. influenced the author’s later life greatlyD. encouraged the author to change her life37. The author advises teens to ______.A. learn more about themselvesB. express themselves in artC. show their thoughts to othersD. dream big and go for it38. Which of the following words can best describe the author?A. Lucky.B. Hardworking.C. Positive.D. Humorous.BWhen people want to know about the weather, they usually go to there radios, TVs, newspapers, or to the Internet. However, you can also find many weather signs among wildlife, because of their highly developed senses. Drops in air pressure(压力) produce an effect on small animals in many ways. Mice and deer are good weather indicators. People who spend a lot of time outdoors have observed that, before a storm, field mice come out of their holes and run around, Deer leave high ground and come down from the mountains.Birds are especially good weather indicators because they also show the effect of a pressure drop in many ways. For example, some birds become irritable(急躁的)and quarrelsome and will fight over a piece of bread. Other birds chirp(叽叽喳喳)and sing just before a storm. It seems they know they won’t get another chance for an h our on two. Birds also seek safe places before a storm, You will sometimes see birds settling in trees or gathering together on a wire close to a building. Pre-storm low pressure makes the air is so thin that birds have difficulty flying.It is unusual to see many birds flying overhead in the summertime, rather than during the periods in the spring or autumn. Watch for other weather signs if you see this. If they fly in the wrong direction,they may be flying ahead of a storm.By paying closer attention to some important signs in nature, we can become better prepared for any kind of weather.39.The word“indicators”in paragraph I probably means .A.mapsB.servicesC. stationsD..signs40.There will be a storm if birds .A. fly in different directionsB..make more noise than usuale down from tall treesD.share a piece of bread41.How can birds sense the coming of a storm?A.By feeling a drop in air temperature.B.By noticing the change of wind directions.C.By feeling a drop in air pressure.D.By noticing the movements of other animals.42.The best title for the text would be .A.Signs of a StormB. Na ture’s Weather SignsC.Animals’Sharp Se nsesD. Drops in Air PressureCMusicians have been putting their songs to images for a long time now. In the 1960s the Beatles made the films A Hard Day’s Night, Help! And Magical Mystery Tour, each of which had a simple story and included their songs. Later, groups such as the Doors and Pink Floyd began making short musical clips(音乐剪辑). These were played on television when the bands weren’t available to perform live.But at midnight on 1st August 1981, everything changed. MTV was set up. The first images were of the space shuttle Columbia lifting off, and the first words were,”Ladies and gentlemen. Rock and Roll.” Suddenly viewers could watch music videos 24 hours a day. By 1984, more than a quarter of American teenagers who turned on the TV tuned in to MTV.Music videos quickly became central to music marketing. Bands that used thenew medium(媒介) became extremely successful.But many were critical of MTV. They said the visuals moved the focus away from the music. Critics said the actual song was now less important than whether an artist was attractive or good at dancing.Others attacked music videos for being commercials(商业广告) for the music. In defence of music videos, people said they were an art in their own right.Then in 2005, everything changed again. YouTube was set up, and people began watching videos online instead of on television. MTV reduced the number of videos it played and eventually changed its focus to reality shows. Almost immediately bands put their videos on the Internet.The group OK Go shot to stardom in 2005 when the video for their first single became popular on the Internet. Within a year the video had been viewed nine million times, making it the most viewed music on YouTube at the time.Who knows what the future holds for music videos? But maybe Arcade Fire’s 2010 video for We Used to Wait offers some information. Google Maps and street view images of your childhood neighborhood are used in the video, which make it less of a video and more of an interaction(互动) between you and your childhood. Maybe music videos just went interactive!43. What can we learn from the first two paragraphs?A The Doors’ short musical clips were played in their live concerts.B The Beatles was the first group to make short musical clips.C The space shuttle Columbia took Rock and Roll into spaceD People have been able to watch MTV anytime since 1st August, 1981.44. Those who were not fond of MTV thought _______.A music videos brought MTV small profitsB it switched people’s attention away from the musicC the costs of making music videos were too highD the artists in the music videos were not attractive45. The underlined part “shot to stardom” in Paragraph 6 probably means ”_____”.A faced serious difficultiesB lost their fans suddenlyC became famous quicklyD was formed by chance46 This text is mainly about_______.A the future of music videosB the history of music videosC the role of technology in music videosD the change of views on music videosDSome people take the topic of laughter extremely seriously.In 1964, American journalist Norman Cousins got a serious illness. Doctor told him that he didn’t have much chance of survival, but Cousins didn’t give up. He developed a recovery programme that included large amounts of Vitamin C, along with a positive attitude and lots of laughter. “I made the discovery that ten minutes of laughter had an effect that would give me at least two hours of pain-free sleep,” he reported.In very little time, Norman was off all the painkillers and sleeping pills. Later, he returned to work and wrote about his experimental treatment in the book Anatomy of an illness. And in 1989, it was finally accepted that laughter therapy(欢笑疗法) could help improve the quality of life for patients with chronic(慢性的) illness.But there are many others who use laughter to help the sick. American physician Hunter Doherty Adams uses humor to help his patients. Each year he organizes agroup of volunteers from around the world to travel to various countries where they dress as clowns in an effort to bring some relief to hospital patients.In 1986, Michael Christensen carried out a programme called the Big Apple Circus Clown Care Unit in New York City. As part of this, Clown Doctors visit children in hospitals, and use their clowning skills to help reduce stress. These visits to hospitals have been shown to help patients greatly.The programme now operates all over the USA, Canada,Europe and Australia.Another movement that’s sweeping the globe is Laughter Yoga. This was started in 1995 by Dr Madan Kataria in India and is now practiced in 6,000 clubs in 65 countries around the world. Kataria is also the creator of World Laughter Day, which is celebrated on the first Sunday in May every year. People taking part in laughter yoga activities “are affected by a powerful emotional state of joy,” explains Kataria. “They, in turn, “infect” other people they come into contact(接触) with.”47. According to the text, Norman Cousins ______.A was good at doing experimentsB died of sleeplessness in 1989C was a best-selling authorD was an optimistic man48. How do Hunter Doherty Adams and his volunteers help the sick?A By dressing as clowns to entertain themB By inviting them to travel abroadC By reading stories to themD By dressing them up as clowns49. What can we learn from the text?A Laughter Yoga is most popular in India.B Anatomy of an illness is a book about laughter therapyC World Laughter Day falls on the first Saturday in May.D The Big Apple Circus Clown Care Unit opened in 1995.50. The four people mentioned in the text seem to believe that _______.A laughing out loud reduces stressB painkillers should not be usedC people can benefit from laughingD exercising is helpful in treating patientsIV. 单词拼写(共5小题, 每小题1分, 共5分)根据下列各句句意和空白之后的汉语提示词, 在答题卡指定区域的横线上写出对应单词的正确形式, 每空只写一词。

A PhD student with not a lot of money, I had hurried into the store to pick up some flowers. We were in Boston, a place not always known for small conversation between strangers. The woman stopped emptyingher basket and looked up at me. She smiled. It was a nice smile – warm and comforting – and I returned her gift by smiling back. “Must be a special lady, whoever it is that will be getting t hose beautiful flowers,” she said. “Yes, she’s special,” I said, and then to my surprise, the words kept coming out. “It’s only our second date, but somehow I am just having the feeling she’s ‘the one’,” Jokingly, I added, “The only problem is that I can’t figure out why she’d want to date a guy like me.” “Well, I think she’s very lucky to have a boyfriend who brings her such lovely flowers and who is obviously in love with her,” the woman said. “My husband used to bring me flowers every week – even when times were tough and we didn’t have much money. Those were unbelievable days; he was very romantic and –of course –I miss him since he has passed away.” I paid for my flowers as she was gathering up her groceries. Almost without any hesitation, I walked up to her. I touched her on the shoulder and said, “You were right, you know. These flowers are indeed for a very special lady.” I handed her the flowers and thanked her for such a nice conversation. It took her a moment to realize that I was giving her the flowers I had just bought. “You have a wonderful evening,” I said. I left her with a big smile and my heart warmed as I saw her smelling the beautiful flowers. I wasslightly late for my date that night and told my girlfriend the above story. A couple of years later, when I finally worked up the courage to ask her to marry me, she told me it was that night that I won her heart. 60.

Which of the following CANNOT be used to replace “leisurely” in the leaflet A. hurried B. gentle C. easy D. unrushed (C)Being connected to the Internet has become a necessary part of modern life. Some people actually need it as they cannot do their jobs without it, and others simply feel they need it as they cannot imagine life without it. To think that something that did not even exist 50 years ago has come to play a crucial role in our lives like this in just about 15 years makes one wonder – just what will the future bring In 2004, a survey was conducted in the US asking a group of technology experts their opinions on the Internet in the next ten years. 57 of them agreed that virtual classes will be morewidely adopted in schools, allowing students to learn with those at the same level and with interests in the same subjects. It’s quite possible that, by the year 2030, every child in every school will do all their schoolwork on their own laptop with all their textbooks available(现成可使用的)on the Internet. No more heavy books to carry around and no more pens and paper At work, we already use email to deal with people both inside and outside our offices and video conferencing(电话会议)is occurring more frequently. This means that meetings can be held between offices in different countries without the trouble caused by business travel. Business travel will stop to exist in the future, and so will offices as people all start to work from home. It has also become a trend for people to use pocket computers such as Blackberries. With this helpful equipment, people can send and receive emails, surf the Web, and read multimedia files from absolutely anywhere even if we are on a beach holiday. The Internet will have a revolutionary(突破性的)effect on entertainment in the future. Already we can buy and download music and movies from the Internet but it is still possible for us to buy a CD or go to the DVD stores to rent the latest movies. However, it’s quite possible that in the future, CD shops and DVD rental stores will close and cinemas will no longer exist.Entertainment will become completely virtual although hopefully people will still want to get outside to play sports and entertain themselves in more healthy ways. With the Internet we need only relax in the rocking chair. The Internet, however, has problems to be solved. 67. The expression “play a crucial role in” can be understood as “_______”. A. change a dull role into B. play an interesting part in C. act a cruel character in D. have an important effect on 68. According to the passage people are satisfied with all the following changes EXCEPT that ______. A. CD shops and cinemas will shut down as a result of the adoption of virtual entertainment B. virtual classes can make students’dream of getting rid of their schoolbags come true C. people can be kept informed anytime and anywhere with the help of convenient equipment D. people won’t have to make business travel any more thanks to the video conference 69. What will the writer probably discuss after the last paragraph A. The possible school life in the future. B. Bad effects the Internet can have on us. C. More excitements the Internet will bring us. D. The likely ways to solve the problems. 70. What is probably the best title for the passage A. Virtual reality, our best friend B. Goodbye, textbooks and offices C. What will future life be like with the Internet D. How can human beings deal with the InternetSection C Compete the statement in NO MORE THAN TENWORDS8%For most people, shopping is still a matter of wandering down the high street or loading a cart in a shopping mall. Soon, that will change. Electronic commerce is growing fast and will soon bring people more choices. There will, however, be a cost protecting the consumer from fraud 欺诈will be harder. Many governments therefore want to extend high street regulations to the electronic world. But politicians would be wiser to see cyberspace as a basis for a new era of corporate self-regulation. Consumers in rich countries have grown used to the idea that the government takes responsibility for everything from the stability of the banks to the safety of the drugs, or their rights to refund 退款when goods are faulty. But governments cannot enforce national laws on businesses whose only presence in their country is on the screen. Other countries have regulators, but the rules of consumer protection differ, as does the enforcement. Even where a clear right to compensation exists, the online catalogue customer in Tokyo, say, can hardly go to New York to extract a refund for a dud purchase. One answer is for governments to cooperate more to recognize each other’s rules. But that requires years of work and volumes of detailed rules. And plenty of countries have rules too fanciful 不切实际的for sober states to accept. There is, however, an alternative. Let the electronic businesses do the “regulation” themselves. They do, after all, have a self-interest in doing so. In electronic com。

It’s called “zero tolerance”. NBA referees are not letting players complain too long or too l oudly about a referee’s call. A player who does can be given a t echnical foul (犯规). Two technical fouls, and the player is out of the game.The players don’t like the new rule and want the NBA to change it. They think it’s only natural to get angry during a close, hard-fought game if a call goes against you.But I like the “zero tolerance” rule and wish other sports would f ollow the NBA’s example. Wouldn’t it be more enjoyable if footb all, soccer and tennis players stopped arguing the calls and justplayed the game?The biggest reason I like the new rule is that it sets a good exa mple to younger players. When kids see stars such as Rasheed Wallace of the Detroit Pistons shouting at the referees and arg uing every call, they think it’s part of the game. But shouting at r eferees and arguing calls should never be part of any kid’s gam es. Kids should be taught to forget about the referees’ calls and pay attention to improving their skills and play their best.All players need to learn that you control only one thing in a ga me, and that’s your own performance. You can’t control what th e other players or trainers do. And you certainly can’t control th e calls the referees make.Finally, everyone from NBA all-stars to 8-year-olds should remember that being a basketball referee is a hard j ob. The referee has to make dozens of sudden calls. No hesitat ion. No second chances. Not even the best referee gets every c all right.Maybe if the players, trainers and fans who shout at the referee s had to wear a whistle and call a few games, there wouldn’t be as many complaints about the “zero tolerance” rule.第六部分:完成句子(20×0.5)直到1938年第一个彩色电视节目才播出。

When his friend Bob saw him, he laughed and said, "What has happened to your hair, Jack?"Jack said, "I tried a new barber's shop today, because I wasn't quite satisfied with my old one, but this one seems even worse."Bob agreed(同意). "Yes, I think you're right, Jack. Now I'll tell you what to do when you go into a barber's shop next time: look at all the barber's hair, find out whose hair looks worst, and then go straight to him.""Why shall I go to him?" Jack asked. "But that would be foolish!""Oh, no, it wouldn't," answered Bob. "Who cut that man's hair? Just think it. Hecouldn't cut it himself, could he? Another of the barbers cut it. So you know he can't be the worst barber."36.

From the story we know that ____.A. it's foolish to have one's hair cut at a barber's shopB. barbers cut each other's hairC. barbers never have their hair cutD. a barber always cuts his hair by himselfBA friend of mine was fond of drawing horse. He drew the horses very well, but he always began the tail. Now it is the Western rule to begin at the head of the horse, that is why I was surprised. It struck me that it could not really make any difference whether the artist begins at the head or the tail or the belly(肚子) or the foot of the horse, if he really knows his business. And most great artists who really know their business do notfollow other people's rule. They make their own rules. Every one of them does his work in a way peculiar( 奇特的) to himself; and the peculiarity means only that he finds it more easy to work in that way.Now the very same thing is true to literature. And the question, "How shall I begin?" only means that you want to begin at the head instead of beginning at the tail or somewhere else. That is, you are not yet experienced enough to trust to your own powers. When you become more experienced you will never ask the question, and I think that you will often begin at the tail -- that is to say, you will write the end of the story before you have even thought of the beginning.41. A friend of the writer's drew the horses ____.A. very wellB. in the way of western ruleC. in the way of his own ruleD. all of the above42. The writer was surprised because ____.A. the artist began to draw at the head of the horseB. the artist began to draw at the tail of the horseC. the artist made his own ruleD. the artist did not follow other people's rule43. You are not yet experienced because ____.A. you don't know where to beginB. you want to begin at the head instead of beginning at the tailC. you always asked questionD. you do not trust to your own powers44. when you become more experienced you will ____.A. never ask questionB. often begin at the tailC. should write the end of the storyD. should think of the beginning45. The topic of the passage isA. How to draw a horseB. How to write a storyC. How to make your own rulesD. Trust to your own powersCYou speak, write a letter, and make a telephone call. Your words carry a message. People communicate with words. Do you think you can communicate without words?A smile on your face shows you are happy or friendly. Tears in your eyes tell others that you are sad. When you raise your hand in class, the teacher knows you want to say something or ask questions. You shake your head, and people know you are saying "No". You nod and people know you are saying "Yes". Other things can also carry messages. For example, a sign at the bus stop helps you to know which bus to take. A sign on the wall of your school helps you to find the library. Signs on doors tell you where to go in or out. Have you ever noticed that there are a lot of signs around you and that you receive messages from them all the time? People can communicate in many other ways. An artist can use his drawings to tell about beautiful mountains, about the blue sea and many other things. Books are written to tell you about all the wonderful things in the world and also about people and their ideas. Books, magazines, TV and radios and films all help us to communicate with each other. They all help us to know what is going on in the world and what other people are thinking about.46.Can we communicate with each other without words?A. Yes, some times we can.B. No, we can't.C. No. It's impossible.D. Yes, we always do so.47. When we see somebody smile, then, he must be feeling ____.A. angryB. joyfulC. surprisedD. sad48. We can learn news from ____.A. newspapersB. radioC.

What do you think is the quickest way to communicate with your friend in another city?A. Writing a letter.B. Making a telephone.C. Drawing a picture.D. Asking someone else to take a message.DFriendship continues to remain central to our lives. Friends often affect our health and energy. More and more people are increasingly turning towards their friends for support and sharing rather than just communicating with their relatives. We may have a very unclear understanding of what makes a friend but we all want to have a good number of friends around us. There are certain things you do to help you make friends or at least help you get close to people whom you want to make friends with.The first step to make friends with people is to make them like you. If they don’t like you in the first place, it is unlikely that they’ll be eager to bec ome your friends. To let someone know that you are interested in him, simple gestures like a little smile and calling him by his name can help. To make the other person feel important, you need to be a good listener and to encourage him to talk. Give your honest and sincere opinion, but do not make fun of him.The second step is to develop trust in each other. You need to share opinions with this person and it is necessary for you to develop a habit of seeing things from his point of view. To become the best of friends, you must show concern and consideration for your friends’ desires and opinions.The third and final step is to show your support and encouragement towards your friend. Moreover, you also need to be very clear about your expectations from your friend. If what you expect from the person you want to be a friend matches with what that person can and wants to do in friendship, the developing friendship between you and your friend is sure to be easy and successful.51. What can we learn about friends and friendship?A. Friendship is not important in our life.B. Friends have nothing to do with our health and energy.C. Friends can provide us with support.D.
