Every day, we are handed countless plastic bags:when we go to grocery stores, clothing stores, book stores and restaurants. Yes, sometimes, they are convenient, but most of the time, they are avoidable. A plastic bag is just not necessary for that apple you are about to eat or that soda you are going to drink right away. Consider these questions:Do I need to take as many plastic bags in supermarkets?Do I need a plastic bag for an item purchased that is already well packaged?Could I bring my own shopping bag when making purchases?Plastic bags are the cause of major environmental concerns. It is thought that an average person uses around 130 plastic bags per year. Using fewer plastic bags is a must in solving environmental problems.Reasons why you should limit your use of plastic bags:1. Plastic bags account for a major part of our waste in landfills(垃圾填埋场). Plasticbags are light and hard to contain. Because of this, plastic bags fly easily in wind, float along in the currents of rivers and oceans, and get caught in trees and fences.2. Plastic bags are made from a non-renewable natural resource(资源):oil. Therefore, this contributes to the disappearance of our natural resources.3. Countless plastic bags end up in our oceans and cause harm to our sea life. Many sea animals and birds mistakenly eat and choke on plastic or become tied up in plastic bags that are floating around.4. There are many better alternatives to plastic bags. Paper bags hold more than plastic bags. But the best alternative to using plastic bags is using cloth bags.46. What’s the main idea of the first paragraph?A. Plastic bags are uncontrollable.B. Plastic bags are unnecessary.C. Plastic bags are inconvenient.D. Plastic bags are dangerous.47. Which of the following is NOT the reason for limiting the use of plastic bags?A. They speed up the disappearance of oil.B. They threaten the lives of sea animals.C. They do harm to trees and fences.D. They pollute the environment.48. The best thing people can do to help solve the plastic bag problem is to _________.A. stop making plastic bags from oilB. use paper bags instead of plastic bagsC. bring their own cloth bags when shoppingD. pick up plastic bags found in rivers and oceansBLinden Wolbert on W hat It’s Like to Be a Real-Life MermaidMany little girls dream of swimming with or meeting a mermaid, but Linden Wolbert actually left her day job to become one.“I have always been attracted to water, ”she said in an interview. “Not just because of the animals that live in it, but because I feel so comfortable swimming in it. I just was always a swimmer and loved to be in the water. ”After three years of working 9 to 5 as a residence director for Emerson College, “I was just daydreaming over every single lunch break about being in the water and among the fish, ”she said. As an experienced swimmer and scuba diver, Wolbert also loves free diving, in which you dive as deep as you can and swim back up to the surface in a single breath—perfect training for a professional life as a mermaid. She made the change from office worker to mermaid in 2005 and hasn’t looked back since.Though Wolbert, 32, loved movies like “The Little Mermaid” and “Splash” as a kid, she says that she really spent most of her time watching the wildlife documentary(纪录片). “My goal was to become an underwater wildlife documentary filmmaker like Jacques Cousteau,” she says—and she also works in the Los Angeles area as an advisor on underwater photo and video shoots. When special-effects artist Allan Holt asked her to help him with an underwater music video a few years ago, she mentioned that she’d always wanted an artificial mermaid tail but didn’t know where to find one.With the help of advanced technology, Holt ended up making a 35-pound, 6-foot-long tail for her, sealing a fish tail inside high-quality rubber, hand-making the scales(鱼鳞), and creating a detailed copy of Wolbert’s body. It took seven months to complete and cost approximately $15,000.She also produces and stars in her own internet show, “The Mermaid Minute”, in which she teaches kids about theoceans and the creatures that live in them.“I am a smart science mermaid. ”she said. “And working with children is my favorite. ”49. Why did Linden become a mermaid?A. She wanted to do scientific research.B. She felt stressed in her office work.C. She enjoyed feeding sea animals.D. She liked water and swimming.50. What MOST helped Linden become a mermaid?A. Her love for mermaid films.B. Her experience in freediving.C. Her knowledge of life under the sea.D. Her desire to be an underwater filmmaker.51. Which of the following words best describes Linden’s mermaid tail?A. High-tech.B. Real.C. Colorful.D. Inexpensive.52. As a mermaid, what’s the most valuable thing that Linden gives kids?A. An exciting music video.B. An interesting documentary.C. An attractive training course.D. An educational internet program.CUsually, when a waiter refuses to serve someone at a restaurant, customers complain. In this case, customers cheered.The waiter in question, Michael Garcia, has been receiving goodwill and friend requests on the restaurant’s Facebook page since word spread that he stood up for a child with special needs.Garcia, who works at the Houston restaurant Lau renzo’s, was serving a family with a 5-year-old child, Milo, who has Down syndrome(唐氏综合症). The server said that another family at the restaurant commented on Milo’s behavior, which Garcia described as “talking and making little noises.” Garcia moved the complaining family to another table, but they were still unhappy. “Special needs children need to be special somewhere else, ”the complaining father reportedly said.The waiter then took a stand. He told FoxNews. com that such talk is rude and is due to people’s fear of the unknown. “My personal feelings took over,” he said, leading him to tell the father. “Sir, I won’t be able to serve you. ”The family left the restaurant.It didn’t take long for the story to get out. The restaurant’s Facebook page has received praise from people in Texas and beyond.Facebook user Tisha Bak er wrote, “Thank you so much for speaking up when most just turn away. ”Rick Park posted, “Thank you Mr. Garcia! I have a 17-year-old son with Down syndrome and I love to hear about people like yourself standing up for people with disabilities. ”St ephanie Painter added, “Thank you Michael for standing up for this beautiful little boy! Anyone who has ever come in contact with a child, or adult, with Down’s knows how loving and happy they are. Milo is a precious gift from God and so is Michael!”O utside of Texas. Garcia gained other fans. Sue Pusztai posted, “I wish I lived in Texas so I could eat at your restaurant. I would have loved to have met Mr. Garcia to thank him for his kindness and courage. ”53. The family who was refused service was __________.A. greedyB. hungryC. proudD. selfish54. What can we infer from Paragraph 3?A. The family were satisfied after being moved to a different table.B. Milo was a child suffering from Down syndrome.C. The family wanted Milo t o leave the restaurant.D. Milo’s parents quarreled with the family.55. The underlined phrase “took a stand” in Paragraph 4 means __________.A. understood disabled peopleB. did what he thought was rightC. argued with angry peopleD. tried to be a Web hero56.

On the Web it’s good for people to have a Facebook page.D. The Web is the only place to read stories such as this one.DWhale WarsAs I was looking through the channels I came upon something called Whale Wars. What a bunch of stupid people. I really don’t believe these people are thinking str aight. I know they are not thinking straight because one of the questions the captain asks of all new members or those who want to be members is this:Are you willing to die for a whale? One more time, just in ease you were not paying attention. Are you willing to die for a whale? No, I am not willing to die for a whale—are yon crazy? I don’t mind jumping in there to help out on a cause, but to die for a whale or even any kind of animal is beyond my understanding. These people believe strongly enough in this cause to say “Yes, yes, I will die for a whale”. The countries involved in the whaling industry do this because it is a way to make a living and sup port their families. The last thing they need is to have a bunch of stupid people trying to disable their ship.A lot of the organizations out there say that whaling has to be stopped immediately without question. However, disabling these fishing boats will only stop the so-called problem temporarily.The point is this:It is so very easy for people to say stop the whaling! OK, you stop the whaling. What is your answer for an alternative to whaling? I’m waiting. How do you want these people to support their families and help fuel the economy in which they live? A lot of people want the whaling to stop, but they have little or nothing to offer as an alternative for them. You cannot just say stop something and then that is the end of the problem.Yes, I am picking on the “save the planet” people again. I will continue to do so until they can come up with better ideas on how to save the planet without putting people and what they own in harm’s way. Destroying another person’s things and putting them in a possible life or death situation is not the answer.Until whaling countries can figure something else out to cure this so-called problem, there really isn’t a lot that can be done. Until this happens, I say raise the anchor, set the main sail and WHALE AW AY!57. Where did the writer probably learn about Whale Wars?A. On TV.B. On the radio.C. In a magazine.D. In the newspaper.58. Which of the following statements would the writer agree with?A. Saving whales is the most important thing in the world.B. People must fight for something no matter what it costs.C. Human lives are much more valuable than animals’.D. Stupid people will do anything to become famous.59. What does the writer care most about?A. Protecting whalers and their families.B. Stopping whales from hurting people.C. Criticizing the “save the planet” people.D. Setting up an organization for whale protection.60. The writer is against _______________.A. environmental expertsB. environmental workersC. environmental officialsD. environmental protestersII卷非选择题III. 完成句子(共5小题;每小题3分, 满分15分)根据括号中所给单词或短语的提示完成下列句子。

Or give a shark a bath? Cats are well-known for the way they keep themselves clean by licking(舔),but other animals have their own ways to stay clean as well.And tidiness can be important for their survival.Even cockroaches(蟑螂)have to keep their feelers clean to help them into food.Many animals in the wild,such as deer,wolves and bears,have an automatic cleaning system.Insects like to attach themselves to animals to feed on the skin or blood.These parasites(寄生虫)can be unhealthy.But their“host” animals are constantly dropping skin and fur by a natural process.They also like to rub up against trees or rocks to comfort themselves,and this removes additional skin and fur.Along with old fur goes the dirt and parasites living in the fur.While these animals may sometimes take a bath when they enter or cross a river or lake,they don't need the water to stay clean.They don't get sweaty,because they don't have sweat glands(汗腺)all over their bodies the way people do.Growing new skin and fur is enough to keep them clean.Some animals and birds use dust to get clean.Chinchillas,a kind of small animal that lives inthe mountains of South America,have a very fine fur.(They are raised for their fur,in fact.)If they took water baths,they might get too cold.So,instead,they roll around in fine dust,raisingquite a cloud as they“bathe”.The dust helps to keep their fur and skin dry.This protects themfrom bacteria and parasites that enjoy warm and wet places.And the fine dust doesn't stick in theirfur for long.It falls off or blows away.As for lions and tigers.their rough tongues act like combs and can remove dirt and loose fur.Why is it important for them to stay clean and smooth? It helps them stay cool in very hot summer or feel warm in cold winter.55.What's the main idea of this passage?A.For animals,cleanliness is a survival skill.B.Animals enjoy living in a clean environment.C.Unlike people,animals hate staying in water.D.Animals fight against parasites in different ways.56.According to the passage,such animals as deer,wolves and bears clean themselves by ___________.A.living with parasites B.replacing their skin and fur naturallyC.climbing trees or rocks D.having a bath in a river or lake57.It can be inferred from the passage that the way some animals stay clean ________.A.is decided by their physical conditions B.is better than the way people doC.keeps them away from parasites all the time D.helps them survive any danger in the wildC58.To attend the annual Children's Gathering,one has to_______.A.buy a ticket B.apply in advance C.make a reservation D.contact the call-down service 59.According to the passage,Enzo Monfre will _______.A.show the children around a zoo B.tell stories to children over sevenC.take the audience back in time D.take place on Thursday,March 2760.The Help Desk in this library supplies service _______.A.only during the daytime B.in case of emergencyC. till the end of the Spring Break D.after 22:00 p.m.every day61.We learn from the passage that children can __________.A.attend all the activities with their parents B.borrow some relevant books for the activitiesC.participate in the activities from 8:00 a.m.to 4:00 p.m.D.choose only one of the activities according to their interestDReading Oliver James' Affluenza,I thought about what often happens at home.My 12-year-old daughter is in tears.“I have to take a test tomorrow.I don't understand any of it,”she cries out. After shouting and shutting her door,she calms down enough to go through her notes.The following day I ask her how the test went and she just says“OK.I got a nine”.“Wow, well done!”I say,before she finishes with“But I never get a ten!”According to James, this obsession with getting top marks has been a bad development,which encourages people to think of education in terms of work and money.To test this,I asked my daughter why she was so worried about her tests.She looked at me as if I was thick.“Well,if I don't get good grades,I won't get into university.Then I probably won't get a good job and I won't be able to afford nice things like a ear and stuff.”I was quite surprised,because I don't consider myself a pushy parent.But James suggests showing any interest in grades sends the message that what is important is results and it leaves students feeling failures even if they are very bright.He points to the Danish system(体制)of education as a better model.Creating happy citizens who have good social skills is seen as more important than high achievements at school or the needs of business.For me.I cannot remember the last time I had to work out the area of a circle,recite a Shakespeare poem or grammar rules,yet I have lived a happy life.What I really needed to learn at school was how to make polite conversations,or how to avoid getting into debt or how to develop good personality.This is in fact similar to what Oliver James really has in mind.And he is looking for schoolswhere students are encouraged to find and follow their own interests,something more like Tongjon.Tongjon has beendeveloped in some Korean private schools.It is quite different from the more rigid system of learning things by heart that is used in Korea,and indeed in many other school systems around the world.As the Russian poet Pushkin said,“Inspiration(灵感)is needed in geometry(几何学)just as much as in poetry”,and inspiration does not come from endlessly revising for tests or getting worried about them.62.What does the writer probably think of his/her daughter?A.She sets herself a goal too high to reach.B.She should be more polite to her parents.C.She is hard-working but not very bright.D.She takes her grades much too seriously.63. What does the underlined word “ obsession” in paragraph 3 mean?A. A plain and unavoidable factB. A satisfied and very proud stateC. A practical and widely-used wayD. A fixed and often unreasonable idea64.What can we infer from the passage?A.Social skills are as important as high grades.B.Interest in grades can shake self-confidence.C.The writer regrets not having studied hard at school.D.Danish educational system is for very smart students.65.The writer wants to tell us that ________.A.learning happily is the key to self-development B.top marks may be helpful to increase one's interest C.tests should be improved to give children inspiration D.education should meet one's needs for work and money 第二节(共5小题;每小题1.5分,共7.5分)NOISEThe people who lived in Rome 2,000 years ago were already talking about the noise in their city.They couldn’t sleep,they said,with all the people and carriages in the streets.For them noise was only a trouble,but for us it has become a real danger.We know that sounds of an ordinary city are loud enough to cause serious harm to the people's hearing--in the United States,one person out of twenty has suffered some hearing loss.66It has increased greatly in the 20th century with the development of machines.We live surrounded by loud planes,trucks,buses,radios,machines--that make such loud noises day and night up to 90 or 100 decibels(分贝).A usual talk reaches 55 decibels.A jet plane goes to 100 decibels and more.“Pop”music reaches around 118 decibels.At 120 decibels the ear stops hearing sound,and the ear suffers a lot.However,the human ear does not judge clearly the degree of loudness of a noise.A sound ten decibels louder than another one is felt as twice as loud,when,in fact,it is ten times louder.67But it is not only our hearing that is harmed.It has been known that loud noises,over a period of time,cause loss of sleep,anger,and many other problems.68Can anything be done to make our world more quiet? We know how to build quieter machines,if the public wants them.But shop—assistants say that people who buy motorbikes like the loudest ones because they sound more loudly.69 In America the drivers in some cities are fined fifty dollars for honking;they may lose their right to drive if they do it again.People who carry noisy radios in public places may lose them if they are caught with them.70 Even so,say the scientists,in twenty years the cities will be twice as loud as they aretoday because of the increase of the population.People will have to shout to be heard at the dinnertable.Unless,of course,they have all become completely deaf!A.Some countries are trying to make laws.B.People will become completely deaf in the future.C.When a sound is getting louder and louder,our ears are in danger.D.In fact,it will take everybody’s hard work to keep city noises from increasing.E.Since we cannot measure the increase or decrease of noise,we never know in what danger we are.F.And all over the world the situation is getting worse all the time since noise increases with the population.G.Such problems have been found among factory workers,and people who operate loud machines,or often go to pop music concerts.第四部分:选词或词组填空(共10小题,10分)71.If you keep your car at a speed like that,you will ______ in hospital.72.______ natural resources,it is one of the poorest countries in Western Europe.73.Nobody ______________ go out on such a stormy night.74.He sat down at his desk to _______ the exact figures.75.The effort _________ in the long run.76.How did he _______ the news?77.What one thinks and feels is ________ tradition, habit and education.78._________ you __________ the weather here?79.Among mystery writers,Agatha Christie ___________ as a real master.80.The story you have made doesn't _________ to me.第五部分:书面表达(10分)假如你是李华,你校将在寒假举办外国人学汉语的短期学习班,并为学员安排周末“北京一日游”活动。

We know how to build quieter machines,if the public wants them.But shop—assistants say that people who buy motorbikes like the loudest ones because they sound more loudly. 69 In America the drivers in some cities are fined fifty dollars for honking;they may lose their right to drive if they do it again.People who carry noisy radios in public places may lose them if they are caught with them.70 Even so,say the scientists,in twenty years the cities will be twice as loud as they aretoday because of the increase of the population.People will have to shout to be heard at the dinnertable.Unless,of course,they have all become completely deaf!A.Some countries are trying to make laws.B.People will become completely deaf in the future.C.When a sound is getting louder and louder,our ears are in danger.D.In fact,it will take everybody’s hard work to keep city noises from increasing.E.Since we cannot measure the increase or decrease of noise,we never know in what danger we are.F.And all over the world the situation is getting worse all the time since noise increases with the population.G.Such problems have been found among factory workers,and people who operate loud machines,or often go to pop music concerts.第四部分:选词或词组填空(共10小题,10分)请用方框中词语或词组的适当形式完成下列句子,每个词语或词组只用一次。
