The case had erupted round my head.10. spectators paid to gaze at it and ponder whether they might be related.11.Mark Twain began digging his way to regional fame as a newspaper reporter and humorist.12.“Let’s take the thing to court and test the legality of it.”13.a flagrant example of lexicographic irresponsibility.14.lexicography, like God, is no respecter of persons15.They made it harder to make a big killing in good times16.But it softens the ground for the second demand17.I want my fill of beauty before I go.18.who are bent on taking over the lion’s share of the trade19.And when they go, so does a huge slice of the new traditional industries worth keeping.20.Pug saw no point of equivocating.21.there is a touch of rough poetry about himIII. Translate the following into Chinese1.From them all Mark Twain gained a keen perception of the human race, of the difference between what people claim to be and what they really are.2.What underlies a ll this sound and fury? Is the claim of the G&C Merriam Company, probably the world’s greatest dictionary maker, that it required the efforts of three hundreds scholars over a period of twenty-seven years, working on the largest collection of citations ever assembled in any language ---is all this a fraud, a hoax?3. Mark Twain suggested that an ingredient was missing in the American ambition when he said: “ What a robust people, what a nation of thinkers we might be, if we would only lay ourselves on the shelf occasionally and renew our edges.”4.

They face extinction. And when they go, so does a huge slice of the few traditional industries worth keeping.7.Darrow walked slowly round the baking court. “Today it is the teachers,” he continued, “and tomorrow the magazines, the books, the newspapers. After a while, it is the setting of man against man and creed against creed until we are marching backwards to the glorious age of the sixteenth century when bigots lighted faggots to burn the man who dared to bring any intelligence and enlightenment and culture to the human mind.”8.What I like best are the stern cliffs, with ranges of mountains soaring behind them, full of possibilities, peaks to be scaled only by the most daring. What plants of the high altitudes grow unravished among their crags and valleys? So do I let my imagination play over the recesses of Laura’s character, so austere in the foreground but nurturing what treasures of tenderness, like delicate flowers, for the discovery of the venturesome.IV.

Being "Cool" in Middle SchoolA new study shows that gentle and quiet kids in middle school will grow up to rule. Or, at least, they'll live healthier and more productive lives than the "cool" kids will.The study looked at 13-year-olds who acted old for their age by having "cool" behavior, such as early romantic relationships. They were seen as "cool" and popular kids. But as they grew up, things changed. The study found that these kids tended to have problems with drugs and relationships by their early behavior was no longer linked with popularity. Instead, they were thought to be less socially skilled by their peers. Besides, the average "cool" kids, by age 22, did more poorly than the average kids in the study. They had a 45 percent greater rate of problems due to drugs and alcohol. They also had a 22 percent greater rate of criminal behavior. The study also found that these kids failed to develop important life skills. They spent so much time trying to seem cool. They didn't develop the skills needed for meaningful friendships. The study followed 86 male and 98 female middle school students for a 10-year period. It has some surprising findings. In particular, the study notes that the so-called "cool" behavior is a predictor （预示） of future problems with drugs and alcohol. In fact, it is a better predictor than drug and alcohol use in middle school. However, one conclusion of the study is welcome. Researcherssaid that parents shouldn't worry too much if their kids don't seem that popular. If a kid prefers to spend Saturday nights at home watching a movie or reading instead of going out with friends, that is not a cause for concern. Many "uncool" kids, they said, do much better later on than the popular kids do.1．Gentle kids are less healthy when they grow up.A．TrueB．FalseC．Not Given2．"Cool" kids try to imitate adult behavior.A．TrueB．FalseC．Not Given3．Romantic relationships seem cool to some teenagers.A．TrueB．FalseC．Not Given4．"Uncool" kids are more likely to commit crimes.A．TrueB．FalseC．Not Given5．"Cool" kids have better life skills than "uncool" kids.A．TrueB．FalseC．Not Given6．"Uncool" kids spend most of their time studying.A．TrueB．FalseC．Not Given7．The study followed the students for a decade.A．TrueB．FalseC．Not Given8．"Cool" kids marry earlier than "uncool" kids.A．TrueB．FalseC．Not Given9．Parents needn't worry if their kids are "uncool".A．TrueB．FalseC．Not Given10．"Cool" kids remain popular all their lives.A．TrueB．FalseC．Not Given第二部分：阅读选择（第11～ 15 题，每题 2 分，共 10 分）阅读下面短文，请从短文所给各题的 4 个选项（ A、 B、 C、 D）中选出 1 个最佳选项，并在答题卡相应位置上将该项涂黑。

Being "Cool" in Middle SchoolA new study shows that gen tie and quiet kids in middle school will grow up to rule. Or, at least, they'll live healthier and more productive lives than the "cool" kids will.The study looked at 13-year-olds who acted old for their age by having "cool" behavior, such as early roma ntic relati on ships. They were see n as "cool" and popular kids. But as they grew up, things cha nged. The study found that these kids ten ded to have problems with drugs and relationships by their early 20s.Their behavior was no Ion ger lin ked with popularity .In stead, they were thought to be less socially skilled by their peers. Besides, the average "cool" kids, by age 22, did more poorly than the average kids in the study. They had a 45 percent greater rate of problems due to drugs and alcohol. They also had a 22 perce nt greater rate of crim inal behavior. The study also found that these kids failed to develop importa nt life skills. They spe nt so much time trying to seem cool. They did n't develop the skills n eeded for meanin gful frien dships.The study followed 86 male and 98 female middle school students for a 10-year period. It has some surprising findings. In particular, the study notes that the so-called "cool" behavior is a predictor （预示）of future problems with drugs and alcohol.

AIn the late 1990s, a family visited the school where I taught deaf students. They said they would be moving here and planned to send their deaf daughter to my school as a first grader. They were upset that their child’s kindergarten teacher told t hem not to have high hopes for her. The teacher painted a bleak (暗淡的) picture for their little girl’s future. Standing behind them was Katherine, a beautiful five-year-old with long hair and dark eyes. The whole time her parents were there she didn’t make a sound or use sign language, even when her parents asked her to do so.After a few weeks with Katherine, I discovered I was dealing with a very bright child. Although I was able to make her join in different learning activities, writing was always a struggle. I tried all kinds of methods to interest her in writing. Every time the pencils came out, she would refuse to write.One day Katherine got off her bus and stood in front of the school crying. The teachers there did not know enough sign language to ask her what happened. Finally they led her into the office where they handed her a pen and a piece of paper. Katherinewrote: “PAC BAK.” Immediately the teachers realized she left her backpack on the bus. They called the bus driver back to school and soon Katherine got her backpack back.That day Katherine discovered the power of the pen. From then on she fell in love with writing. She is a young woman now and has become an excellent writer, public speaker and student leader.21. When the author first met her, Katherine _____.A. kept silentB. kept cryingC. was studyingD. was unhappy22. What was Katherine’s problem after a few weeks with the author?A. She didn’t like to write at all.B. She couldn’t use sign language.C. She always left her backpack on the bus.D. She had no interest in learning activities.23. What’s the meaning of “Katherine discovered the power of the pen”?A. Katherine used a pen for the first time.B. Katherine became interested in writing.C. Katherine understood how to use the pen.D. Katherine knew what the pen was used for.BWinter Vinecki began running at age five, but got serious in 2015 after her father died of cancer —that’s when she decided to honor his memory by running a marathon on every continent before her 15th birthday.Scope: Team Winter is an organization you founded to raise money for cancer research. How did it get started?Winter: At first, Team Winter was formed to fight childhood obesity. When I was 8, I ran a race and raised $1,100 for that cause. But less than a year later, my dad got cancer.I knew I had to do something to help. When I started, my goal was to raise $10,000. I’ve raised well past that — almost $500,000.Scope: What goes through your mind when you run?Winter: When I’m having a hard time during a race, I think about my dad. If he could deal with the pain of cancer, I can deal with any type of pain. He was a very friendly person. He was always smiling and very happy even when he had cancer.Scope: Is your age ever an obstacle in your races?Winter: I’ve been turned down by race directors who won’t let anyon e younger than 16 or 18 compete. But Diana Nyad, the first person to swim from Cuba to Florida without a shark cage, told me, “Never let them tell you it can’t be done.” From then on I knew my age wasn’t the problem.Scope: You’ve probably inspired lots of people too.Winter: I’ve heard about kids doing projects like me. Once in a restaurant, a boy came up to my mom and me and told us his dad had cancer too. Now he’s competing in running for his dad. Hearing stories like that helps keep me going.24. What do we know about Team Winter?A. It always holds different races.B. Its final goal is to raise $500,000.C. It was named after Winter’s father.D. It was to help obese children at first.25. When Winter has a hard time during a race, what keeps her going?A. Her father’s illness.B. Her father’s success.C. Her father’s bravery.D. Her father’s kindness.26. Winter’s words in the last paragraph tell us that _____.A. she sets a good example for othersB. she hopes others will do what she doesC. the boy wants to join Team WinterD. the boy invites her to compete with himCThe idea of inventing an international language is not a new one. Over the past 180 years, linguists (语言学家) have created over ten different languages that are based on German, Spanish, and English. One of these was Basic English.By 1923 the First World War had been over for five years, but Europe was still recovering from its effects. Charles Kay Ogden, a linguist and writer, was running several bookshops in Cambridge. He published The Meaning of Meaning (1923), a book describing how we use language. The book received high praise, which drove Ogden to design an international language — something that was much simpler than English. In 1930 Ogden’s book Basic English: A General Introduction with Rules and Grammar was published.Perhaps it takes about seven years for one to become a good English speaker. Ogden believed that Basic English could be learned in seven weeks. There were only 850 words and the grammar was very simple.The language attracted the attention of educators all over the world, but its development was stopped by the Second World War. After the war, both the British Prime Minister Winston Churchill and the President of the United States Franklin D. Roosevelt looked for ideas that might bring world peace. They both gave speeches that encouraged the use of Ogden’s international language. In the past 60 years, the language has had some success. In some parts of East Asia, teachers are still using Ogden’s word lists.However, in the main, the language has disappeared. Because there are many more non-native than native speakers of English, recently some linguists have asked whether we should give careful consideration to Ogden’s ideas again. And the Wikipediawebsite () has started a version (版本) written in Basic English for non-native learners of the language. Search for it on the Internet now!27. According to the text, Basic English _____.A. was very easy to learnB. has a history of 180 yearsC. is mainly based on three languagesD. developed fast over the last 60 years28. What was Churchill and Roosevelt’s attitude towards Basic English?A. They were worried about it.B. They were uncertain of it.C. They supported it.D. They didn’t care about it.29. The linguists mentioned in the last paragraph seem to _____.A. write in Basic English on WikipediaB. encourage people to use Basic EnglishC. believe Basic English will disappear soonD. think there will be fewer speakers of English30. The main purpose of the text is to _____.A. advertise a websiteB. review two booksC. describe some linguists’ worksD. introduce an international languageDWhen I was 8 years old, I decided to run away from home after a quarrel with my mother. With my suitcase packed and some sandwiches in a bag, I started for the front door.My mom asked where I was going. “I’m leaving home,” I said.“What’s that you’re carrying?” she ask ed.“Some clothes and food,” I replied.“If you want to run away, that’s all right,” she said. “But you came into this home without anything and you can leave the same way.”I threw my suitcase and sandwiches on the floor and started for the door again.“Wait a minute,” Mom said. “You didn’t have any clothes on when you arrived, and I want them back.”This infuriated me. I tore my clothes off — shoes, socks, underwear and all —and shouted, “Can I go now?”“Yes,” my mom answered, “but once you close that door, don’t expect to come back.”I was so angry that I shut the door forcefully and stepped out of my home. Then I noticed down the street two neighbor girls walking toward our house. I was so shy that I saw the big spruce (云杉) tree in our yard and jumped under the low-hanging branches.A pile of dried-up brown needles were beneath the tree, and you can’t imagine the pain those sharp needles caused to my body.After I was sure the girls had passed by, I ran to the front door and knocked at it loudly.“It’s Billy! Let me in!”The voice behind the door answered, “Billy doesn’t live here anymore. He ran away from home.”Looking behind me to see if anyone else was coming down the street, I said, “Mom! I’m sorry. I’m still your son. Let me in!”The door opened and Mom’s smiling face appeared. “Did you change your mind about running away?” she asked.“What’s for supper?” I smiled back.31. When the author was leaving home, his mother ordered him to _____.A. stay at homeB. take some sandwichesC. leave everything behindD. check his suitcase carefully32. Which of the following can best describe the author’s mom?A. Selfish and proud.B. Strict but loving.C. Kind and helpful.D. Wise but impatient.33.
