第I 卷（选择题）一、阅读理解ATop attractionsAmsterdam is most famous for its artistic heritage. This tradition is proudly on display in the Rijksmuseum (translates as State Museum). Once you’ve taken in all that has to offer, artists, history fans, and families shouldn’t pass u p the chance to visit the Van Gogh Museum —containing around 700 paintings and drawings by Vincent and his contemporaries (同时代的人), including Gauguin, Monet, and Toulouse-Lautrec.Amsterdam is also home to the Anne Frank Museum, where Anne hid with her family during the Nazi occupation of the Netherlands. On a lighter note, taking a canal cruise through its extensive waterways is a rewarding way to see the Dutch capital.Art lovers get their kicks at:♦♦ The Van Gogh Museum Rijksmuseum Museum het Rembrandthu is Food and drinkCheese lovers love Amsterdam. You can find an excuse to eat cheese at any time of the day here. Gouda is Holland’s favorite, developing a more intense flavor the longer it’s aged. Find a selection at the markets ，try a cheeseboard at dinner time, or just order cubes with mustard for dipping to accompany a drink.When you’re hungry for non -cheese food groups, you’ll find Michel in -starred restaurants, vegetarian, and organic restaurants that accompany an array of global cuisine. For old-fashioned and modern Dutch food, try these Amsterdam restaurants: Moeders, Haesje Claes, Loetje, Greetje, and De Silveren Spiegel.Don’t leave without tasting:♦♦ Patat (hot chips with toppings) Stroopwafel (waffle cookie) Chocomel (chocolate milk) Amsterdam Fast FactsApproximate flight times:♦♦NYC/Newark 7 hours 20 minutes Philadelphia 8 hours Boston 7 hours ♦♦Miami 9 hours 45 minutes Los Angeles 10 hours 15 minutesEntry requirements: Passport must be valid for at least 3 months beyond your planned departure from the Schengen area and have 2 blank pages for entry stamp. 1．Where can visitors see Monet’s paintings?

AmericansBI recently posted a picture on Facebook from the movie Mad Max, a film where two groups race throu gh the desert in steam punk vehicles, and wrote, “Actual picture of my way to work today.” It was meant to be a joke because of the sandstorms in Beijing, but one of my friends from back home thought it was real.I couldn’t imagine how they could think tha t is actually what China is like. China has so many more conveniences and advantages than the West, and many of my friends agree. “I don’t know how I will be able to deal when I go back home,” said a friend who is about to end her gap year in Beijing. “I’v e become so spoiled in China.China seems to be leading the way in innovation and convenience for daily life. Back home I could never shop, pull out my phone and scan a QR code to pay.There have been rumors of starting bike sharing in my hometown for years with little success while bike sharing suddenly appeared in Beijing overnight. I just step outside and scan a code, and I am on my way.Going out to eat with a group of friends back home was troublesome for both the group and the servers. Splitting checks and swiping (刷) 10 different cards or making change for each person in the group can be a pain. But with China’s WeChat, you can quickly send your friends your part of the bill.The list goes on...When I first arrived in Beijing, I was dead set on leaving in a month. That month has come and gone. Now, when someone asks me when I’m coming back, I think to myself, “Who knows?”此卷只装订不密封班级 姓名 准考证号 考场号 座位号While my friends think I’m riding through the desert on a motorbike, I am actually taking a “Didi” for what is the equivalent of $5 in the US.With all the conveniences and technology here, I may never want too go back.4．What’s the function of Paragraph 1?A.

Life in foreign countries is not as easy as we thought.D. Technology has brought much convenience in China.CThere is a story about a man who lost his legs and left arm in an accident. After the accident, only a finger and thumb on his right hand remained.He was a brilliant, creative, and educated man. He had gained a lot of experience while traveling around the world, so he became very depressed after his accident. He was afraid that he would spend the rest of his life suffering and would no longer be able to spend his life in a meaningful way. Then, he realized that he still had partial function of his right hand and could still write even though it was very difficult. An idea occurred to him. “Why not write to other people who need encouragement?”He wrote to the prison ministry about sending letters to the prisoners. The prison minister replied, “Writing to the prisoners is acceptable, but your letters will not be answered.”Filled with excitement, the man knew he could write his letters. He began sending one-way messages of God’s love, hope, strength, and encouragement. He wrote twice a week, testing his strength and ability to the limit. He poured his heart and soul into his words and shared his experience, sense of humor, optimism, and faith.It was difficult to write those letters, especially without hope of a reply. One day he received a letter from the prison ministry. It was a short note from the officer who monitored and checked the prison mail.The letter said, “Please write on the best paper you can afford. Your letters are passed from cell (囚房) to cell until they literally (逐字地) fall to pieces!”No matter what circumstances life may present, we all have unique experiences, abilities, and God-given talents. We can discover ways to reach others who desperately need messages of encouragement and strength.8．In order to live in a meaningful way, what did the man begin to do?A. Write to other people who need encouragement.B. Receive the school education.C. Meet the people who are depressed.D. Help other people with lost arms and legs.9．What do we know from the prison minister’s reply?A. The man was not allowed to write to the prisoners.B. The prisoners were not allowed to answer the letters.C. The man couldn’t go to see the prisoners himself.D. He was not sure if the prisoners liked receiving the letters.10．What can be inferred from the officer’s short note?A. The man would be offered free paper to write letters on.B. Some of the prisoners were not satisfied with his letters.C. His letters were very popular among the prisoners.D. The prisoners eagerly wanted to write back to the man.11．Which can be the best title of the passage?A. Stories about a Helpful PersonB. Relationship between Writers and PrisonersC. Popularity of Special LettersD. Special Letters of EncouragementDWhen we think of leadership, we often think of strength and power. But what are these really, and how do they operate?Leadership today is not about forcing others to do things. If this is even possible, it is short-term. If you order someone to do something against their will, they may do it because they feel they must, but the anger they feel will do more harm in the long-term. They will also experience fear.Fear causes the thinking brain to shut down, making the person unable to function at his or her best. If they connect you with this emotion of fear, they will become less functional around you, and you will have succeeded in not only shooting yourself in the foot, but possibly making a very good employee or partner unable to perform effectively. Fear has no place in leadership.The way we affect people in a lasting way is by our own character, and our understanding and use of emotion. We can order someone to do something, which may be part of the work day, or we can employ them at the emotional level, so they become fully devoted to the projects and provide some of their own motivation (积极性). Today’s work place is all about relationships.名校精编卷第3页（共8页）名校精编卷第4页（共8页）Anyone works harder in a positive environment in which they’re recognized and valued as a human being as well as a worker. Everyone produces just a bit more for someone they like Leaders understand the way things work. They know money is not the only most motivating factor in the work life of most people.The true strength of leadership is an inner strength that comes from the confidence of Emotional Intelligence—knowing your own emotions, and how to deal with them and those of others. Developing your emotional intelligence is the best thing you can do if you want to develop your relationships with people around you, which is the key to the leadership skills.12．When may an employee have a feeling of fear in the work place?A. He is forced to do things.B. He cannot work at his bestC. He feels his brain shut down.D. He thinks of his work as too heavy.13．Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A. People like to connect leadership with fear.B. Working conditions affect peopled physical health.C. Good relationship is the key to business success.D. Smart people are more functional in the work place.14．To positively affect employees, what should a leader do first of all?A. Provide better suggestions.B. Develop his own personality.C.

Hide his own emotion of fear.15．Good leadership is mainly seen in a leader’s ability to ________.A. provide a variety of projects for employeesB. help raise employees’ living standardsC. give employees specific instructionsD. deal wisely with employees’ emotions二、七选五Living a more simple life can improve how we think, feel and move around in the world. Here are ways to simplify your life while creating space for happiness.Give up your negative thoughts.

But that didn't stop her from winning a national handwriting contest when she was in first grade.In the two years since,she has taken on greater st week,she won another national handwriting contest,this one for cursive（草书）.And by all accounts from her teachers at Greenbrier Christian Academy,she has become an accomplished artist.Anaya isn't one to boast about her successes.She unwillingly says they make her proud but adds that they come from“lots of practice.”Her friends at school said,“She inspires everybody by what she does and how she does it”child to fail,and raising one who was born with a disability can heighten that protective instinct.Before Anaya was born,doctors knew about her condition,although not its cause.Other than having no hands,she is a regular9-year-old girl.Anaya succeeds because she is not afraid to fail,Middleton said.The two began practicing cursive last year,when Anaya was in second grade.She struggled sometimes,because unlike traditional penmanship, which allows for breaks after each letter,cursive words are written straight through–and added effort forsomeone who must balance rather than hold the pencil.Middleton could see her daughter thinking through the challenge,figuring out how she could do better.She'd get frustrated at times,but she never hesitated to do things as often as it took to get them right.“I don't think I've ever heard Anaya say I can't do something,”Middleton said.That attitude carries over to her other interests.Recently,Anaya and her classmates sat in Cheryl Leader's art room,working on an exercise.The goal was to get them thinking about different concepts,like color combinations and how an image can be formed by fully coloring inside straight and diagonal lines.（1）（2分）How did she make her writing?A．by hand.B．with her arms.C．with her wrists.D．with her mouth.（2）（2分）Why did Anaya's mother say being a parent can be scary?A．Because she doesn't want her child to fail.B．Because she love her child very much.C．Because raising one who was born with a disability can be a burden.D．Because she wants to protect her child from failing.（3）（2分）According to the passage,what kind of person do you think Anaya is?A．brave,hard-working and proud.B．brave,warm-hearted and kind. C．brace,diligent and modest.D．brave,diligent and shy.（4）（2分）What would be the best title for the text?A．Girl without hands inspires everybody.B．A special artist.C．Mother and daughter.D．We can do everything that we want.3．（8分）阅读理解I have been unusually silent these past ten months.I had thought that silence would soon be coming to an end,,but I'm afraid I must tell you now that fate（命运）has decided on a different course for me.In August of last year,I underwent surgery to remove a cancerous tumor in my abdomen.That operation was thought to have been a success,but it caused a series of secondary complications–which I have been fighting in hospital ever since.It was along and hard fight with many setbacks,but I was steadily,if slowly,overcoming each obstacle along the way and gradually making my way back to health.However,recent tests have revealed that the cancer has returned.There was no sign or it as recently as a month ago,which means it is aggressive and spreading rapidly.My doctors tell me their best estimate is that I have only a few weeks left to live.This is the final conclusion.My fight is over.I wish to thank my doctors and caregivers,who efforts have been magnificent.My dear friends,who have given me a lifetime of memories and whose support has sustained me through these difficult months.
