On a recent trip to Quebec, I slept over at the only ice hotel in North America.Upon check﹣in, I was directed to a sweet woman nestling warmly next to the fireplace, who kindly reminded us that there would be no lockers or Internet access and that we'd better eat a heavy meal.Following her advice, we ate everything on our plates at dinner even if we were full. But we couldn't free us from our anxiety at that point. When dessert came, we started calling other hotels to see if they had any openings. When the eighth hotel we called wanted to charge us about $80more than the online price, we just decided to go back to sleep on a bed of ice.Once in the room, we began trying to figure out how to get comfortable in a room full of ice. Have you tried taking off your shoes in a room in which the floor is ice and not get your socks wet? It took me three yoga (瑜伽)positions to get ________ accomplished.Rolling around to get all the way into the bag, I zipped myself up and said my good nights. And then I felt this sharp pain in my head. My hat had metal bands on it. The metal was getting cold in the…well…cold. I took my hat off and my head started to get cold. I sunk down further into my sleeping bag and thought to myself, "Well, at least if I die in here, it will be in my sleep."The next thing I knew, the hotel staff was giving us a real wake﹣up call (they stand outside your room and tell you to get up!).The reward of having slept in a hotel made of ice? Now, no matter who is complaining and what the problem is, my response can be, "Did you sleep in an ice hotel? On a genuine bed of ice? No? I did!"(1)Why did the author start calling other hotels when dessert arrived?________A He was not satisfied with the dessert.B He wanted to compare the prices.C He was worried about sleeping on ice.D He meant to figure out his lucky number.(2)The underlined word "this" in Paragraph 4 refers to________.A taking off the shoes.B practicing yoga.C rolling around theroom. D keeping socks dry.(3)Why did the author take off his hat before sleep?________A It made him suffer when worn.B It was likely to cause death.C It didn't fit in the sleeping bag.D It was too cold for him to wear.(4)What can we infer about the author from the last paragraph?________A He regretted sleeping over at the ice hotel.B He showed genuine preference for ice beds.C He would never reply to others' complaints.D He took pride in this unique experience.3. Let's say that your friend, who's having a particularly great day, tells you, "I feel like a million dollars." A little bit confused, you reply, "Wait, don't you mean ‘a million bucks'? " Your friend shrugs and says, "Bucks, dollars. Same thing."But why is that? How did the seemingly random word "bucks" become interchangeable for dollars?Well, here's a hint: The proper definition of the word "buck" is a male deer. Deer were being called "bucks"long before dollars were﹣long before American dollars even existed, as a matter of fact. In the early days of North American colonization, settlers were trading goods with the Native Americans. In the1700s, animal pelts (皮) were forms of currency, much in the same way dollar bills are today. And one of the most valuable animal pelts was﹣you guessed it﹣a deerpelt, otherwise known as a "buck." A document from the year1748 reveals that a barrel of whiskey held the same value as "five bucks." Another document from the same year expresses great sadness about a robbery that occurred around what was the present﹣day Ohio. The unfortunate traveler was "robbed of the value of 300 bucks."Interestingly enough, even back then, one "buck" didn't necessarily mean precisely one deer pelt. A buck had to be a particularly good deer pelt. Since deer pelts are thickest in the winter, the pelts of deer killed in the summertime were less valuable, and therefore it might take several of those to equal one "buck." Likewise, multiple pelts of smaller animals, like beavers or rabbits, could also be combined to equal the value of one "buck". This connection of the word "bucks" with currency stuck around after coinage of U.S. dollars began, around 92. And we've been nicknaming dollars "bucks" ever since.(1)Why are the two documents mentioned in Paragraph 4?________A To demonstrate the value of deer pelts.B To prove "buck" was a form of currency.C To disapprove of the way dollars are used.D To identify the most valuable animal pelts.(2)Which of the following most probably equals one buck?________A A pelt of a deer killed in summer.B A pelt of a deer killed in winter.C A pelt of a beaver killed in summer.D A pelt of a beaver killed in winter.(3)What is the text mainly about?________A Cultural hints in English idioms.B The definition and origin of dollar.C Theconnection between two words. D The introduction of dollars to the U.4.Google's new camera, called Clips, is a small, smart device. It comes with a case that has a clip (夹子), but it's not designed to be worn on your clothing. Most interestingly, it uses artificial intelligence to take photography out of your hands so it can capture moments on its own.This roughly 2-inch by 2-inch camera, with a three-hour battery life and Gorilla Glass for toughness, is intended for candid moments, like when a child does something cute that may happen too quickly for you to pull out your smartphone.Onboard the Clips device, it uses machine learning algorithms(计算程序)to help capture scenes. Those algorithms include face recognition. "Once it learns that there's a face you see frequently, it'll try to get nice photos of those faces," said Juston Payne, the device's product manager. And they also want it to recognize facial expressions, which involved "training it to know what happiness looks like". The Google team also trained it to recognize what not to shoot—like when a child's hand is over the lens, or if it is tossed in a dark purse.The only way to see the images is by connecting the camera with your phone, as it has no screen for viewing or editing.Were people concerned it could seem strange? Yes, Payne admitted. But they said they addressed that by making it obvious what it is. A green light on the front signals that it is on. Besides, unlike a camera meant to monitor your home, it is not connected to the Internet. "This product is only possible because of the way that silicon has advanced" Payne said, noting that it was only in the past year or so that they could squeeze the technology down into a device this size. Going forward, we're likely to get more assistance from the artificial intelligence packed into our apps and gadgets.(1)What is the most outstanding feature of Clips?A It is equipped with tough glass.B It enables easy Internet access.C It allows of hands-free photography.D It can be worn on your clothing.(2)What does the underlined word "candid" in Paragraph 2 mean?A Brief.B Touching.C Unforgettable.D Embarrassing.(3)What makes Clips a reality according to Juston Payne?A The popularity of the Internet.B The advance in technology.C The rise of the smartphone industry.D The reduction in the price of lens.(4)What is the best title for the text?A A New Digital Camera from GoogleB New Gadgets in the Age of AppsC Artificial Intelligence in Everyday LifeD An Alternative Way to Photograph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.选项中有两项为多余选项.5.Everyday Habits of People with Impressive MemoryPeople blessed with an impressive memory generally admit that they use various strategiesto improve their ability. But even if you're not a memory genius, there are things you can try.(1)_______Establish routines.(2)_______For example, always hang your car keys on a hook or put them in the same place by the front door. By following established routines, you are decreasing the chance of having to struggle in the morning rush, which is believed to contribute to forgetfulness.Use Post﹣It notes.Keep some in every room and stick a reminder where you are most likely to see it. If you need to remember to phone a friend later in the day, put a note on the phone so that youwill notice it during the day.(3)_______ Embrace technology.Your cell phone comes with a built﹣in calendar you can set to remind you of what you needto do during the day. Use it! (4)_______ Having access to them wherever you go with a smartphone only makes them even more effective. There's a saying that what gets scheduled gets done.(5)_______Research indicates that most people need six to eight hours of sleep (that's at least two cycles of deep sleep) per night, for their brain to go through the chemical changes needed for long﹣term memory. A good sleep can make all the difference in your brain power and therefore gives you a sharpened mind.A. Sleep on it.B. Sharpen the mind.C. To﹣do lists are also key to living an organized life.D. This simple activity can boost memory by 20 percent.E. These commonsense strategies can help you forget less often.F. It really is easier to find things if you always put them in the same place.G. If not, write it down and put it where you can see it, so you don't forget about it.第三部分语言知识运用(共两节,满分 45 分)第一节(共 20 小题;每小题 1.5 分,满分30 分)阅读下面短文,从短文后各题所给的 A、B、C 和 D 四个选项中,选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项.6.

Most of the technologies for Google Glass are already available on smart phones. Google has taken those same technologies and added them to eyeglass frames (眼镜架). The company describes the glasses as wearable computers that would change the way people view others and the world."Google Glass is a tiny computer that sits in a lightweight frame, and rests neatly above your eye and it makes exploring and sharing the world around you a lot easier,” said Chris Dale, the Senior Manager of Communications for Google Glass.The glasses have a tiny video screen and a camera that connect wirelessly to the Internet through WIFI, a smartphone, or a tablet computer. You can make and receive calls, send and receive texts, take pictures, record video or search the web. You control Google Glass using your voice, and a touchpad on the right arm of the frame.Professor Marcia Dawkins is among a select group of people who have been given a chance to test out Google Glass. "I thought this is something I definitely need for my classroom and hopefully for my personal life too."试卷第2页,共13页The Professor's Google Glass looks like a pair bright orange glasses, without the actual glass. But there's a tiny rectangular (长方形的)glass at the top right-hand corner. Through that glass, she has been recording video while biking. She also has been able to talk to her sister in Thailand, and she plans to use the device to teach a public speaking class.But not everyone is excited about Google Glass. Some are concerned about possible risks to privacy.John Simpson is the director of the privacy project at Consumer Watchdog."It is going to allow people to come in and spy on you and record that, without you knowing what is going on."Filmmaker Chris Barrett showed just how easy it is to record people without them knowing it. His glass captured (捕捉)a man getting arrested after a fight. He shared the video on You Tube. Also some are concerned about the use of facial recognition (面部识别)technology on Google Glass. But Google says it will not approve the use of such applications. The Internet company says it is still testing its new device, and it hopes to make Google Glass available to the public by early next year.1、The technologies Google has made use of for Google Glass are______. A .completely newB .mostly already in use for smartphonesC .high-tech but out-of-dateD .all old2、Which of the following is not true about Google Glass? A .It’s a very small computer. B .It’s very light in weight. C .Everyone can buy it now.D .It can be used for teaching by school teachers.3、While cycling, the Professor has used the Glass to ______.A .record video and chatB .send emailsC .teach a classD .spy on others 4、What can be inferred from the passage ?A .Google has done what it can to protect people’s privacy.B .Google Glass may be used for bad purposes.C.Most people feel worried about the use of the Glass.D.Google Glass is more useful than smartphones.Our culture is the system we use to build our identity. All living creatures are part of a culture. Even animals have a culture! So what is culture? It’s the way we behave in a group. It begins with each individual family. Within our families we do things to build relationships with each other. This can include routines for doing things. It also includes traditions. Traditions are activities that are repeated on a regular basis.Culture is not limited to individual family groups. The real strength of culture is in larger community (社会)groups. These larger groups are called societies. Every society makes rules for itself. It decides how people should act in different situations. Some of these rules are written down. Some are just things that are automatically expected of all members of that society. Often, cultures can be identified(识别)by what the people believe. Cultures are also known by what they choose to include in their art. Sometimes a society forms around people who speak the same language. Cultures may also be known for their customs, including the foods they make and the things they do.Our cultures help us understand who we are and what we believe. There are very strong emotions(情感)connecting us to our own society. Two different cultures may disagree on something, especially if they both feel strongly about it. When that happens, war is a common result. People are learning better ways to communicate with each other. The more we learn, the more we appreciate the differences in cultures.5、Which of the following is not true?A.Every society has its own culture.B.Every one with an identity card has his own culture.C.Animals have their cultures.D.Culture and traditions are connected.6、Which of the following has nothing to do with culture according to the passage?A.A religion that a certain people practiceB.Greetings sent to people we love during spring festivalC.Face-changing in Sichuan OperaD.Someone’s personal habit of staying up very late7、Which of the following is true?试卷第4页,共13页A .Modern societies have written down all the rules for behavior.B .Plants themselves have no culture.C .Disagreement between two societies always leads to war.D .Strong emotions that connect us to our society should be got rid of. 8、We can infer from the passage that ______. A .cultural exchanges may help reduce the risk of war B .all disagreements are caused by strong feelings C .differences in culture always cause disagreements D .people haven’t tried different ways to communicateIt’s puzzling, isn’t it? No matter where you try to tickle (使人发痒)yourself, even on the soles (脚底) of your feet or under your arms, you just can’t.To understand why, you need to know more about how your brain works. One of its main tasks is to try to make good guesses about what’s going to happen next. While you’re busy getting on with your life, walking downstairs or eating your breakfast, parts of your brain are always trying to predict the future.Remember when you first learned how to ride a bicycle? At first, it took a lot of concentration to keep the handlebars steady and push the pedals (踏板). But after a while, cycling became easy. Now you’re not aware of the movements you make to keep the bike going. From experience, your brain knows exactly what to expect so your body rides the bike automatically. Your brain is predicting all the movements you need to make.You only have to think consciously about cycling if something changes---like if there’s a strong wind or you get a flat tyre. When something unexpected happens like this, your brain is forced to change its predictions about what will happen next. If it does its job well, you’ll adjust to the strong wind, leaning your body so you don’t fall.Why is it so important for our brains to predict what will happen next? It helps us make fewer mistakes and can even save our lives. For example, when a chief fireman sees a fire, he immediately makes decisions about how best to position his men. His past experiences help him foresee what might happen and choose the best plan for fighting the fire. His brain can instantly predict how different plans would work out, and he can rule out any bad or dangerous plans without putting his men at risk in real life.So how does all this answer your question about tickling? Because your brain is alwayspredicting your own actions, and how your body will feel as a result, you cannot tickle yourself. Other people can tickle you because they can surprise you. You can’t predict what their tickling actions will be.9、What is the best title for this passage?A.How Does the Brain work?B.Why Can’t I Tickle Myself?C.The importance of PredictionD.The Importance of Our Brains10、Our brains cannot predict what will happen when we______.A.walk down the stairsB.eat our breakfastC.suddenly lose our balance and fallD.ride a bike11、The phrase “rule out” in Paragraph 4 means______.A.decide that something is not suitable B.think about C.act according to the rules D.expect12、The passage is probably taken from______.A.a scientific report for expertsB.a textbook for medical studentsC.a book for childrenD.a research paper for doctorsWhen you are invited to attend a party in the West, the first important thing you need to know is that you should arrive late.It is a great embarrassment to arrive at a party early or even on time. Therefore, unless you are the host of the party, you never want to be the first person present at a party. Why? Because others may think that you have no life or nothing better to do than wait for a party to start. Many people try to project(展现)an image(形象)of always being busy, which, whether true or not, has something to do with success. So, by arriving late, you are implying: “I live a full life and it's really exciting.”Therefore, an 8 o'clock party usually doesn't really start until maybe 9 o'clock, as everyonewants to be thought of as a busy and important person with lots of things to do. In other words,试卷第6页,共13页a party is one of those rare occasions (极少数场合)in which your punctuality can actually hurt you. It's quite a strange thing, isn't it? Anyhow, remember to be late! 13、The passage is most likely to have been taken from a book about______. A .life in the West B .health and medicine C .politics in the West D .behavioral science 14、What is the reason that people want to be late for parties? A .They are not the host of the party. B .They are too busy to arrive on time. C .They want others to think they are busy. D .They don’t want to wait for a party to start.15、What does the word "punctuality" in the last paragraph mean? A .Being polite B .Being late C .Being smart D .Being on time 16、We can infer from the passage that______.A .Sometimes people pretend to be what they want to be.B .Lateness is not a problem when you are attending a meeting.C .You need to be late on every occasion.D .Going to a party can be a waste of time.AbsenceIf a student is absent, parents are asked to contact the school and report that absence. Simply ring the school and you will be directed to the absence phone system. You should then give the name of the student and their tutor teacher. AttendanceSchool hours are 08:35 to 15:00. If a student is late, they must sign in at the Student Office. School times are as follows: Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday. 08:35 - 09:35 Period 1 09:35 - 10:35 Period 2 10:35 - 10:50 Tutor Time 10:50 - 11:10 Interval 11:10 - 12:05 Period 3 12:05 - 13:00 Period 413:00 - 13.45 Lunch13:45 - 14:05 School-wide reading 14:05 - 15:00 Period 5 Wednesday Only 09:00 - 09:55 Period 1 09:55 - 10:50 Period 2Rest of the times are the same as for the other days. CellphonesThe current cell phone policy is that, although permitted at school, they must not be used or turned on during class time.17、If a student is absent, ______ should call the school and report the absence. the student’s parents B. the student himself C. the student’s tutor D. the student’s teacher 18、The school doesn’t have Tutor Time ______.A .on Monday and FridayB .on TuesdayC .on ThursdayD .on Wednesday 19、Students can use their cell phones at ______ every day.

You only have to share your children's interests.Firstly, listen to their questions. I once a classroom of seven-year-olds to talk about science试卷第8页,共13页as a job. The children asked me "textbook questions" about schooling, salary and my job. When I answering, I said, " we're finished with your lists, do you have questions of your own about science ?" After a long , a boy his hand, "Have you ever seen a grasshopper (蚱蜢) ?When I try eating leaves like that, I get a stomachache. Why ?" This began a set of questions that nearly two hours.Secondly, give them time to think. After asking a question, teachers often wait only one or less for an answer, no time for a child to think. When teachers their "wait time" to three seconds or more, children usually give better answers.Thirdly, watch your language. When children are having a science discussion, don't jump in with "That's right" or "Very good" because these may make the children think that discussion is over. , keep things going by saying, "I'd never thought of it that way before", or coming up with more questions or ideas.Never a child to "think". It doesn't make sense, because children are always thinking without your telling them to. What's more, this can turn a conversation a performance., show in stead of telling. Let children look at their fingers through a magnifying glass (放大镜), they'll understand why you want them to before dinner. Rather than say that water evaporates (蒸发), set a pot of water to boil and let them watch the water level . 21、A .real B .great C .natural D .poor22、A .Having B .Teaching C .Making D .Helping 23、A .easy B .difficult C .useful D .useless 24、A .found B .visited C .passed D .attended 25、A .tried B .remembered C .began D .finished 26、A .Because B .After C .If D .Now that 27、A .stay B .pause C .stop D .rest 28、A .showed B .clapped C .raised D .shook 29、A .eat B .fly C .jump D .run 30、A .took B .needed C .lasted D .spent 31、A .second B .minute C .hour D .time 32、A .give B .decrease C .increase D .control 33、A .rewards B .sayings C .languages D .words 34、A .Actually B .Finally C .As a result D .Instead 35、A .push B .expect C .ask D .teach36、A .on B .in C .onto D .into37、A .Lastly B .As a result C .In the end D .Eventually 38、A .because B .if C .so that D .since 39、A .answer B .wash C .tell D .show 40、A .boil B .go C .drop D .disappear三、单项选择(题型注释)41、We have been friends ever________ we were at school together.
