All he knew was that he was on a plane heading for somewhere. The plane landed at Kennedy International Airport, where he was greeted by a family. This young boy was me.I have grown up in a town where there were few Asians, so I stuck out in the crowd. I made friends quickly and they treated me just like anyone else. You may ask if anyone made fun of my appearance. Well, of course, I met that' kind of person. I just shrugged it off.As an adopted child, I have something that others don't have. I have had the benefit oftwo families. I'm lucky to have got a chance to start a new life. But we must try never to forget our past. Someday I will go back to Korea to find out what kind of culture I left behind. There is only one thing that I regret about being adopted. When I argue with my parents and they realize they are losing the argument, they sometimes wonder what I would be doing if I were back in Korea. I don't understand this because I thought the purpose ofadopting someone was to give them a better chance of growing up in a family. Some day when I am older, I want to adopt a girl and raise her the way my parents have raised me, but I would do it better, for I know what went well and what did not.16.We learn that when the writer was on the way to his new family,______.A. AB. BC. CD. D17.If someone sticks out in the crowd, it means that he/she_______.A. AB. BC. CD. D18.When the writer was made fun of by others, he _______.A. AB. BC. CD. D19.What can we learn from Paragraph 3?A. AB. BC. CD. D20.What does the writer want to do when he is older?A Go back to live with his parents in Korea.B. Tell his parents what they have done wrong.C. Find out how to raise children in a better way.D. Adopt a girl and raise her in a good way.A. AB. BC. CD. DBAlthough similar in appearance to hyenas(土狼), African wild dogs are nevertheless true wild canine(犬). They are a mixture of black, yellow, and white in such a wide variety of patterns that no two individuals look exactly alike. African wild dogs are widely distributed across the African plains but they do not live in jungle areas.They are social animals, living in groups of usually from 2 to 45 individuals. A hierarchy（统团）exists within the group, but the animals are friendly to one another. The young and theinfirm（体弱的）are given special privileges within the group.African wild dogs use their sense of sight, not smell, to find their prey. They can run up to 55 km/h for several kilometers. In eastern Africa, they mostly hunt Thomson's gazelles, but they will also attack calves, warthogs, zebras, impalas, and the young of large antelopes such as the gnu.Growing human populations have decreased or degraded the African wild dog's habitat and also diminished their available prey. Road kill and human persecution（迫害）have also had a negative impact on African wild dog populations. This species is also susceptible to a variety of diseases such as distemper, which is controlled in domestic .dogs. Conservation of the African wild dog's natural habitat must have the highest priority, as these dogs suffer in habitats modified by human intrusion（干扰）．21.What does the underlined word " susceptible" mean?A. easily affected or sufferedB. badly doubtfulC. seriously harmfulD. highly dangerous22.What factors affect the population of the wild dogs?a. the distribution of the dogsb. social livingc. highly increasing human populationsd. human's killing the dogse. many diseasesf. the changes of their habitatsg. domestic dogs h. food reductionA. a. b, c, d, eB. b, c, d, e, fC. c, d, e, f, hD. d, e, f, g, h23.From the passage we can conclude that_______.A. African wild dogs are completely different from domestic dogs in size, weightB. African wild dogs are living in groupsC. African wild dogs use their eyes mostly when sleeping to guardD. African wild dogs use their noses to find their food in most cases24.What can we know about African wild dogs?A. In a pack there may be about 90 wild dogs and no leader.B. There are no such wild dogs that are different.C. African wild dogs can run at a speed of about 15 m/s for a long distance.D. All African wild dogs kill zebras, impalas, and antelopes as their food.25.What can we infer from the passage?A. African wild dogs are not in danger, because there are such a wide variety of patterns.B. African wild dogs are not in danger, because are widely distributed across the Africanplains.C. African wild dogs are in danger, because human's activities have a great effect on them.D. African wild dogs are in danger, because their habitats have been changed much.COne day, when I was working as a psychologist in England, an adolescent boy showed up in my office. It was David. He kept walking up and down restlessly, his face pale, and his hands shaking slightly. His head teacher had referred him to me. "This boy has lost his family," he wrote. "He is understandably very sad and refuses to talk to others, and I'm very worried about him. Can you help?" 'I looked at David and showed him to a chair. How could I help him? There are problems psychology doesn't have the answer to, and which no words can describe. Sometimes the best thing one can do is to listen openly and sympathetically.The first two times we met David didn't say a word. He sat there, only looking up to look at the children’s drawings on the wall behind me. I suggested we play a game of chess. He nodded.After that he played chess with me every Wednesday afternoon - in complete silence and without looking at me. It's not easy to cheat in chess, but I admit I made sure David won once or twice.Usually, he arrived earlier than agreed, took the chess board and pieces from the shelf and began setting them up before I even got a chance to sit down. It seemed as if he enjoyed my company. But why did he never look at me?"Perhaps he simply needs someone to share his pain with," I thought. "Perhaps he senses that I respect his suffering." Some months later, when we were playing chess, he looked up at me suddenly."It's your turn," he said.After that day, David started talking. He got friends in school and joined a bicycle club. He wrote to me a few times about his biking with some friends, an d about his plan to get into university. Now he had really started to live his own life.Maybe I gave David something. But I also learned that one - without any words – can reach out to another person. All it takes is a hug, a shoulder to cry' on, a friendly touch, and an ear that listens.26.When he first met the author, David________.A. felt a little excitedB. walked energeticallyC. looked a little nervousD. showed up with his teacher27.As a psychologist, the author_______ .A. was ready to listen to DavidB. was skeptical about psychologyC. was able to describe David's problemD. was sure of handling David's problem28.David enjoyed being with the author because he ______.A. wanted to ask the author for adviceB. need to share sorrow with the authorC. liked the children's drawings in the officeD. beat the author many times in the chess game29.What can be inferred about David?A. He recovered after months of treatment.B. He liked biking before he lost his family.C. He went into university soon after starting to talk.D. He got friends in school before he met the author.30.What made David change?A. His teacher's help.B. The author's friendship.C. His exchange of letters with the author.D. The author's silent communication with him.三、完形填空（本大题共20小题，共30.0分）Last Christmas while staying with my parents, I 31 across some old love letters that my parents wrote to each other.

were written in1974over the course of a month when my father traveled to Italy to care for his beloved,sick mother,leaving his wife and me,their newborn daughter,behind in Toronto,the city my parents called home after immigrating to Canada from Italy in1956.Growing up,my father was my hero and protector,but he was also a man of few words,part of a generation of immigrant men who worked hard for a better life.I sat back while my mother read his letters to me,and thought,“Who is this guy?”My father used endearing terms I had never heard him say.He referred to my mother as“my dearest”and“my companion”who was always in his thoughts.In each letter,he enclosed a Canadian one-dollar bill for me and declared,“You and your mother are my life.”As children,we assume we know everything about our parents.But,sometimes,we find out that they were and are people with various facets.My father was proud and stubborn,and he married a woman who was his equal in that regard.During their58-year marriage,their stubbornness often led to conflict.So it was bittersweet to hear my father’s youthful sentiments read aloud by my elderly mother with a wistful(留恋的)tone.I knew she was thinking about what could have been and what had been once upon a time.After she finished reading the letters,I held them in my hands andexamined them like they were fossils.Although a man I knew as economical with his thoughts,he had filled the front and back of several pages.These letters are only part of their correspondence.My mother wrote back to my father.One day she will read those letters to me,she’s assured me.And just as with my father,they might help me discover another dimension of a parent I never knew before.61.What kind of person did the author think her father was?A.Optimistic.B.Reserved.C.Sensitive.D.Romantic.62.What can we know about the author’s family?A.Her mother was the family’s provider.B.She didn’t get on well with her father.C.Her parents were emigrants to Italy.D.Her parents shared similar personalities.63.What does the underlined word“facets”in paragraph6most probably mean?A.interestsB.ideasC.sidesD.possibilities64.How did the author feel when she heard the words in the letters?A.Surprised.B.Awkward.C.Thrilled.D.Heartbroken.65.What did the author find out about her father through the letters?A.He was good at hiding his feelings.B.He regretted not being with his family.C.He was a loving husband and father.D.He was stubborn from the inside out.C“We found that immigrants begin losing their native microbes(微生物)almost immediately after arriving in the US and then acquire microbes that are more common in European-American people,”says senior author Dan Knights,a biologist at the University of Minnesota.“But the new microbes aren’t enough to make up for the loss of the native microbes,so we see a big overall loss of diversity.It has been shown before that people in developing nations have a much greater diversity.”The research was inspired by Minnesota’s large community of immigrants from Southeast Asia,particularly the Hmong and Karen peoples,ethnic minorities from China and Burma.“Obesity（肥胖）was a concern that was coming up a lot for the Hmong and Karen communities here.In other studies,the microbiome had been related to obesity,so we wanted to know if there was potentially a relationship in immigrants and if we can make any findings relevant and available to the communities,”says first author Pajau Vangay.The researchers did find that significant changes happened that fast:in those first six to nine months after people’s immigration,the Western microbes began to supersede thenon-Western ones.But this westernization also continued to happen over the course of the first decade in the US,and the overall microbiome diversity decreased when the immigrants had been longer in the US.The participants’food logs suggested that eating a more Western diet played a role but couldn’t explain all the changes.Although the research didn’t establish a cause-and-effect relationship between the microbiome changes in immigrants and the immigrant obesity,it did show a correlation: greater westernization of the microbiome was associated with greater obesity.Knights believes that the research has a lot to tell us about our health.“We do see that westernization of the microbiome is associated with obesity in immigrants,so this could be an interesting avenue for future research into treatment of obesity,both in immigrants and potentially in the broader population.”66.What can we learn about the microbes of the people in developing nations?A.Their adaptability is very strong.B.They come in a wider range of species.C.Their renewal can make up for the loss.D.They are threatened by microbes in immigrants.67.What can we know from Paragraph2and Paragraph3?A.Westernization in lifestyle is responsible for obesity.B.Obese people lose their native microbes after immigration.C.Immigrants’microbes disappear shortly after immigration.D.There may be many obese Hmong and Karen immigrants in Minnesota.68.What does the underlined word“supersede”in Paragraph3mean?A.Rebuild.B.Copy.C.Improve.D.Replace.69.In the last paragraph,Knights wants to stress_________.A.the disadvantages of immigrationB.the influence of westernizationC.the partial value of the researchD.the hidden dangers of obesity70.What can be the best title for the passage?A.Suggestions for immigrants’maintaining native microbes.B.Immigration to the US changes a person’s microbiome.C.Western diet reduces the diversity of people’s microbiome.D.Differences in microbes between westerners and easterners.DWhen people get old and have difficulty working full time,they retire and begin a new,more relaxing lifestyle.But what about old industrial buildings?Can they start anew?China seems to find a good solution for them.In recent years,many abandoned factories,railway yards,warehouses and mills have been transformed into cultural andtourist sites.According to the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology,there are now194items on the country’s national industrial heritage list.The798Art Zone in Beijing is an iconic example.Built in the1950s as No798Joint Factory,it was gradually abandoned in the1990s as production slowed down.In2006, Beijing’s municipal government invested over120million yuan and improved its infrastructure condition,turning the factory complex into a cultural and creative industrial base.Now the art zone holds about200galleries,art centers as well as fashionable boutiques,cafes and restaurants,which also earns it a place on the bucket list (心愿单)of many tourists,noted The Paper.Jack Liu is a frequenter of the art zone who visits it every weekend.“In the art zone, you can refresh memories of the development of Chinese manufacturing through its old buildings,”said the28-year-old to Teens.“However,in art galleries here you will feel pulled into a fashionable,modern world.It’s amazing.”Industrial heritage sites,which used to be filled with the rumbling of machines,are now“precious pages of the book on the industrial culture of China,”noted People’s Daily.Since these heritage sites are rich and diverse in content,cities in China also spare no effort to explore new ways and models to protect and utilize them.For example,a beer museum has been set up inside a century-old plant of the Tsingtao Brewery in Qingdao,Shandong province,bringing people closer to the long history of the brewery.Some abandoned plants in Beijing have also been renovated for city explorers to take adventures in.Just as the elderly need our care and love,these industrial heritages are also expected to be injected with vitality through protection and development.“It is not only an inevitable trend of the innovation-driven development of cities,but a necessity for fostering(促进) new drivers of development,”noted People’s Daily.71.What is China’s solution for old industrial buildings?A.Expanding their space and uses.B.Upgrading them to become attractions.C.Integrating them with new buildings.D.Returning them to their original condition.72.What do we know about the798Art Zone?A.It was established in the1990s.B.It mainly provides venues for fashion shows.C.It’s China’s first cultural and creative industrial base.D.It’s a successful example of transforming old industrial sites.73.What are Jack Liu’s feelings in the renewed industrial buildings?A.The buildings which are out of date should be torn down.B.They are the refreshments of Chinese manufacturing.C.The once deserted buildings are full of vitality now.D.He is amazed with the mixture of old and new galleries.74.Why does the author mention the beer museum?A.To show the popularity of industrial heritage sites.B.To explain the importance of renovating old plants.C.To introduce the features of industrial heritage sites.D.To illustrate how industrial heritage sites can be used effectively.75.What does the author think of industrial heritage sites?A.They deserve to be brought back to life.B.They can be drivers for city development.C.They should give way to modern buildings.D.They are reminders of a city’s development.第Ⅱ卷（共25分）V.单词填空（共5小题，每小题1分，满分5分）76.My teacher is very considerate and helpful and I’ll never forget the f_____he has
