AShenzhen is a shopping paradise for visitors. Following is a list of the most popular shopping areas in the city.◊ North Huaqiang AreaThe most prosperous shopping area in Shenzhen, it is home to dozens of market places for electronic products, home appliances, timepieces, clothing and jewelry. Some market places each house hundreds of shops, from flagship stores selling big brands to small boutiques where you can bargain.It is also a great place to dine, with plenty of restaurants offering various Chinese cuisines and foreign brands like Pizza Hut, Hagen Daas and AijiSen.◊ Dongmen AreaOne of the oldest commercial centers in Shenzhen, this area highlights a walking street flanked by humming stores. It is a good place to buy clothes, handbags, fashion accessories, jewelry, handicrafts, toys and small electronic gadgets.◊ MixC Shopping MallIt is the city’s largest shopping mall an d one of the most luxurious, selling clothes, cosmetics and fashion accessories. There is a large indoor ice skating rink, a movie theater and a super market selling many imported goods. You can also find quite a few foreign restaurant brands here, including Pizza Hut, Starbucks and a Japanese noodle house.◊ ShekouSitting by a beautiful cove in western Nanshan District, this quiet place is frequented by many expatriates living in Shenzhen. There are stores selling antiques, collectibles, handicrafts and souvenirs, as well as bars and restaurants offering Western food.1. What can you do at North Huaqiang Area?A. Skate.B. See a film.C. Buy antiques.D. Eat Chinese food.2. According to the passage, where can you find a large indoor place to skate?A. North Huaqiang Area.B. Dongmen Area.C. MixC Shopping Mall.D. Shekou.3. Where does this passage probably come from?A. A travel magazine.B. A museum guide.C. A text book.D. A news report.BA law was passed last month in San Francisco, California to protect shelter pets. The city now requires pet stores to sell dogs and cats from shelters and rescue groups only and bans the sale of non-rescue dogs and cats, and puppies under 8 weeks old, by pet stores in the city.San Francisco will not be the first US city to take such a measure. Los Angeles, San Diego, Chicago, Philadelphia, Boston and Austin all passed similar laws to help more rescued pets find homes.“Most animal lovers are not willing to keep their fami ly pet in a dirty cage for a second — let alone a week, month or even years,’’ the San Francisco Board of Supervisors wrote. “In response, more than 200 cities and counties across the nation have banned the sale of dogs and cats in pet stores.”Each year, shelters across the US take in more than 7 million dogs and cats, according to the American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (ASPCA). About 2.6 million of those animals don’t get adopted and are put to sleep. “There are so many shelter anim als that need loving homes,’’ says the lawmaker Katy Tang.Meanwhile, most dogs and cats seen in pet shop windows come from breeders who sell them to the stores. Many breeders take good care of their animals. But some breeders raise hundreds of animals at a time in dirty spaces. The animals often go without enough food or water, or proper medical treatment.Tang says San Francisco’s new law is meant to send a message to any breeder who treats animals cruelly.4. What do we know about the new law?A. It was passed last month in Los Angeles.B. Puppies under 8 weeks old can be sold by pet stores.C. It aimed to protect pets from shelters and rescue groups.D. Pet stores can only sell non-rescue dogs and cats.5. Which of the following cities was not mentioned to pass the law to help rescued pets?A. Chicago.B. Austin.C. San Francisco.D. Las Vegas.6. What does the underlined word “breeders” in Paragraph 5 mean?A. Sellers.B. Keepers.C. Protectors.D. Hunters.7. What can we infer about dogs and cats in pet stores?A. Some of them lived in a poor condition before being sold to the pet stores.B. Most of them are from breeders who sell them to the pet stores.C. The sale of them is banned in most cities and counties across the nation.D. Most of them are adopted and put to sleep.CThe Chinese have a saying: “Firewood, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar and tea are the seven necessities to begin a day.” Though tea is last on the list, we still can see its importance in daily life.A simple meal in Chinese is Cu Cha Dan Fan, namely coarse tea and tasteless dinner. Even a simple meal is finished off with tea so its importance is obvious.For the Chinese, tea drinking and tasting are not the same. Tea drinking is for refreshment effect.Tea tasting has cultural meaning. Tea and tea wares should match surrounding elements such as breeze, bright moon, pines, bamboo, plums and snow. All these show the goal of Chinese culture: the harmonious unity of human beings with nature.Tea is compared to personal character. Its fragrance is not aggressive; it is pleasant, low-keyed and lasting. A friendship between gentlemen is also like a cup of tea. With a cup of tea in hand, enjoying the green leaves in a white porcelain cup, you will feel peace. Fame, wealth and other earthly concerns are far away. It is the symbol of elegance.Similarly, tea-drinking habits vary in different parts of China. Roughly, scented tea is popular in northern China; green tea is preferred in eastern China, and black tea is optimum for people in Fujian and Guangdong.Notably, Yum Cha (tea drinking) is very popular in Hong Kong and Guangdong Province. Though dim sum, the true highlight of Yum Cha, is what attracts gourmets, tea is an essential part of the meal.8. Why does the writer use the Chinese saying in the first paragraph?A. Prove tea is the last.B. Express his love for China.C. Explain the Chinese saying.D. Show the tea’s importance.9. What is the goal of Chinese culture?A. Develop traditional culture.B. Drink as much tea as possible.C. The harmonious unity of human and nature.D. The combination of the east and west culture.10. What tea does a person from Guangdong probably like drinking according to the passage?A. Green tea.B. Black tea.C. Scented tea.D. Oolong tea.11. Which of the followings can be the best title for the passage?A. Tea culture in ChinaB. How to drink teaC. Tea-drinking habits in ChinaD. Tea and characterDThe way in which people in Latin America spend their money changes from country to country. It obviously depends on the economy (经济). It’s not sensible to compare economies such as those of Argentina, Colombia or Mexico. As they are not the same, consumers spend their money in different ways. There are many articles online about consumption habits in Latin America that show statistics; however, many of them just refer to the crisis (危机) and how bad the economy is.In Argentina for example, due to the fact that there aren’t many ways to get a loan (贷款) and because of their cost, Argentineans prefer to buy cars. They invest their money in electricalappliances. They also spend a good part of their salaries on leisure: going out to dinner, to the movies or to the theater.In Colombia, “plata”, which is an informal word for money, is used to buy houses. It doesn’t matter if you already have one, you can always buy a second one and rent it. Cars are also a very attractive option to spend money on; however, the most important thing is a house. Some people also spend their money on education: bache lor’s degrees, master’s programs, doctorates and so on. Recently, some Colombian people have decided to spend their money on something else: surgery (手术). The most common ones are to improve their nose, to lose some weight and also to gain weight in specific areas.Mexican people spend their money on houses and education as well, and some on cars after that. Nonetheless, it’s also important to mention fun and going out for dinner. Some people say that they spend lots of money in restaurants.However, be aware that those are just some general consumption habits in Latin America; it doesn’t mean that people there only spend their money on those things.12. What is the purpose of the article?A. To show how the economy influences consumption habits.B. To explore consumption habits in Latin America.C. To present the changes in people’s consumption habits.D. To analyze why Latin American countries spend money in different ways.13. Why do the Argentineans prefer to buy cars?A. Because cars show their social status.B. Because they are inexpensive.C. Because houses are too expensive for them.D. Because it is convenient to travel by car in Argentina.14. What does the underlined phrase “doctorates” in Paragraph 3 probably mean?A. One of the highest degrees earned in a university.B. The money you pay for being taught.C. A teacher of the highest rank in a university department.D. The main subject that a student studies at college or university.15. What can be concluded from the article?A. Colombia is the most educated country in Latin America.B. Colombian people prefer to spend money on cars rather than on houses.C. Mexican people spend more time eating out than they spend eating at home.D. People in Mexico and Colombia attach a lot of importance to education.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。

I just did not have what it 33 to win a school election.I was depressed.As I cried in my room that evening, I 34 took a deep breath and decided I wouldn’tstop dreaming.

What’s to blame for all the bad behavior? Most people would say that, while these self-destructive acts can have many root causes, they all have one obvious thing incommon: they are all examples of failures of self-control, lacking the will power to resist them.According to a recent study, however, if you really think about it, something about that simple answer doesn’t quite make sense. In fact, it turns out that sometimes it’s having will power that really gets you into trouble.Think back to the time you took your very first taste of beer. Feeling sick, wasn’t it? When my father gave me my first try of beer as a teenager, I wondered why anyone would voluntarily drink it. And smoking? No one enjoys their first cigarette — it tastes awful. So even though smoking, and drinking alcohol or coffee, can become temptation (attraction) that you need your will power to resist, they never, ever start out that way.Just getting past those first horrible experiences actually requires a lot of self-control. Ironically (讽刺的是), only those who can control themselves well, rather than give in to such experiences, can ever someday come to develop a “taste” for Budweiser beer, Marlboro cigarettes, or dark-roasted Starbucks coffee. We do it for social acceptance. We force ourselves to consume alcohol, cigarettes, coffee and even illegal drugs, just in order to seem experienced, grown-up, and cool.These bad habits aren’t self-control failures —far from it. They are voluntary choices, and they are in fact self-control successes. Self-control is simply a tool to be put to some use, helpful or harmful. To live happy and productive lives, we need to develop not only our self-control, but also the wisdom to make good decisions about when and where to apply it.49. What do most people think causes bad behavior?A. Being forced by others.B. Not having enough will power.C. Enjoying their first experiences.D. Following the examples of their friends.50. The author mentions his experience in the third paragraph to prove ______.A. will power helps develop bad habits sometimesB. drinking beer is harmful to the health of teenagersC. self-control should be developed when one is youngD. everyone can be challenged by different temptations51. In the last paragraph, the author stresses (强调) that ______.A. without self-control, no one can succeedB. bad habits don’t always lead to bad resultsC. applying self-control correctly is importantD. people can develop wisdom from bad behavior52. What would be the best title for the passage?A. My First Taste of BeerB. Do You Have Will Power?C. Will Power Benefits UsD. Dark Side of Self-controlCGrown-ups know that people and objects are solid. At the movies, we know thatif we reach out to touch Tom Cruise, all we will feel is air. But does a baby have this understanding?To see whether babies know objects are solid. T. Bower designed a method for projecting an optical illusion (视觉影像) of a hanging ball. His plan was to first give babies a real ball, one they could be expected to show surprise in their faces and movements. All the 16 to 24-week-old babies tested were surprised when they reached for the illusion and found that the ball was not there.Grown-ups also have a sense of object permanence. We know that if we put a box in a room and lock the door, the box will still be there when we come back. But does a baby realize that a ball that rolls under a chair does not disappear and go to never-never land (想像中的地方)?Experiments done by Bower suggest that babies develop a sense of object permanence when they are about 18 weeks old. In his experiments, Bower used a toy train that went behind a screen. When 16-week-old and 22-week-old babies watched the toy train disappear behind the left side of the screen, they looked to the right, expecting it to re-appear. If the experiment took the train off the table and lifted the screen, all the babies seemed surprised not to see the train. This seems to show that all the babies had a sense of object permanence. But the second part of the experiment showed that this was not really the case. The researcher substituted (替换) a ball for the train when it went behind the screen. The 22-week-old babies seemed surprised and looked back to the left side for the train. But the 16-week-old babies did not seem to notice the switch (更换). Thus, the 16-week-old babies seemed to have a sense of “something permanence,” while the 22-week-old babies had a sense of object permanence related to a particular object.53. The passage is mainly about ______.A. babies’ sense of sightB. effects of experiments on babiesC. babies’ understanding of objectsD. different tests on babies’ feelings54. In Paragraph 3, “object permanence” means that when out of sight, “object ______”.A. still existsB. keeps its shapeC. still stays solidD. is beyond reach55. What did Bower use in his experiments?A. A chair & a screenB. A screen & a trainC. A film & a trainD. A box &a chair56. Which of the following statements is true?A. The babies didn’t have a sense of direction.B. The older babies preferred toy trains to balls.C. The younger babies liked looking for missing objectsD. The babies couldn’t tell a ball from its optical i llusion.D“Mum, what does it mean when someone tells you that they have a skeleton (骨骼) in the closet (衣橱)?” Jessica asked. “A skeleton in the closet?” her motherpaused thoughtfully. “Well, it’s something that you would rather not have anyone else know about. For example, if in the past, someone in Dad’s family had been arrested for stealing a horse, it would be ‘a skeleton in his family’s closet’. He really wouldn’t want any neighbor to know about it.”“Why pick on my family?” Jessica’s father said with anger. “Your family history isn’t so good, you know. Wasn’t you great-great grandfather a prisoner who was transported to Australia for his crimes?” “Yes, but people these days say that you are not a real Australian unless your ancestors arrived as prison ers.” “Gosh, sorry for my asking. I think I understand now,” Jessica cut in before things grew worse.After dinner, the house was very quiet. Jessica’s parents were still quite angry with each other. Her mother was ironing clothes and every now and then she glared at her husband, who hid behind his newspaper, pretending to read. When she finished, she gathered the freshly pressed clothes in her arms and walked to Jessica’s closet. Just as she opened the door and reached in to hang a skirt, a bony arm stuck out from the dark depths and a bundle of white bones fell to the floor. Jessica’s mother sank into a faint (晕倒), waking only when Jessica put a cold, wet cloth on her forehead. She looked up to see the worried faces of her husband and daughter.“What happened? Where am I?” she asked. “You just destroyed the school’s skeleton, Mum,” explained Jessica. “I brought it home to help me with my health project. I meant to tell you, but it seemed that as soon as I mentioned skeletons and closets, it caused a problem between you and Dad.” Jessica looked in amazement as her parents began to laugh madly. “They’re both crazy,” she thought.57. According to Jessica’s mother, “a skeleton in the closet” means ______.A. a family honorB. a family secretC. a family storyD. a family treasure58. What can we learn about some Australian’s ancestors from Paragraph 2?A. They were brought to Australia as prisoners.B. They were the earliest people living in Australia.C.

She planned to keep it for fun.C. She needed it for her school task.D. She intended to scare her parents.61.

It was back in 1981, and I saw many people gathered in someone’s front yard. As I went nearer to see what was happening I got my first introduction to yard sales. For the few dollars I had in my wallet, I was able to buy a seven-inch black-and-white portable TV. I also bought a flashlight.The following weekend, at another yard sale, I saw a 14-inch color TV being sold for almost nothing. I felt I could not miss the offer and bought it. Now I had two sets and couldn’t wait to see what else I could afford the next weekend. Spring ended, and by then I had accumulated almost every type of electronic equipment I had alwayswished to have back home.Then this new idea came to mind. I had heard about a man who traveled back home every few months. He drove a truck filled with boxes of new and used stuff that people were sending to relatives. So I told my father that I would send as many types of items as I could so that he could start his resale business.Every few months I would gather several boxes of American “junk” –––televisions, toasters, fans, hair dryers, etc. and send them home. As word got out about my father’s “trash” market, people all came to buy these things.Three years later, when I visited my family for the first time since leaving home, I learned that many of the families in our neighborhood had a piece of “trash”. It proved that I had the responsibility to keep people back home up to date with the latest technology you no longer need.(304words)42.

If your German friend is interested in Chinese Hutong culture and will visitBeijing next month, you’ll advise him to click _________ for further information.A. B. C. D. CChinese people first encountered the term "empty nest" in a work of famous writer Bing Xin in 1980. In the past three decades, it has become a widespread social phenomenon. And with society and the economy developing at a faster pace, the condition of elderly couples has worsened.Data shows that over half of the families in China are "empty nest" households, with the figure being as high as 70 percent in some big cities. There were 41.5 million "empty nest" old people aged 65 or above in 2010.Experts even say that "empty nest" families will become the major pattern in Chinese cities and rural areas, dealing a blow to the traditional family support system and requiring the government to takegreater care of the material and spiritual needs of senior citizens and to provide them better psychological comfort, proper healthcare and legal aid.After retirement, people tend to participate in fewer social activities, spending more time at home reading newspapers or watching television. "Empty nest" people, who are not taken proper care of by their children, are bound to feel lonely, and are usually unwilling to engage in recreational activities, which leads to psychological problems. A survey shows that over half of the "empty nest" old suffer from mental problems to different degrees. Loneliness, anxiety and depression are the most common.Grown-up children are to take care of not only their parents, but also to respect their feelings, by having more heart-to-heart conversations with them. Family love plays an important role in providing mental comfort for the elderly. They should undertake the responsibility of visiting aged parents more often and making them feel wanted.There is a lot more communities could do to help make senior citizens' life better. To begin with, they could recruit community volunteers, from warm-hearted university students to helpful and devoted middle-aged citizens.Senior citizens, too, should make an effort to release tension and prepare for a happy life in their twilight years. They should change their mentality and try to be less emotionally dependent on their children, develop hobbies, extend their social circle, and set new goals to make the rest of their life more interesting.

The closer you are to the exams, the more chance you have to store and retain crucial information. But do not overdo it. 53_______ An effective daily routine can help you through an exam period, so in the days leading up to your first exam, get into the habit of being up and ready to work by game. It can be a shock to the system after months of working to your own timetable to be mentally alert at that time if you have not prepared for it.On the day of exam, have a good breakfast, pack two of everything you need (pens, pencils, erasers, etc), then make your way to the examination hall in good time. 54_______Once in your seat, simply pause for a few seconds and collect your thoughts. Close your eyes and take in a few slow deep breaths to help you relax. When you turn over the test paper, spend a short period reading through all the instructions and questions, paying particular attention to key verbs su ch as “discuss”, “compare” and “evaluate”. 55_______ It is wise always to allow for 10 minutes at the end of the exam to give yourself time to go back over your answers. Once you have selected the questions you wish to tackle, begin by attempting the one you think is your strongest. It will give you more confidence when you see a well-prepared question down on paper. Also remember to write clearly, and do not be afraid to express the unexpected :after all, examiners can get very bored marking stereotypical answers.56 _______ If you do need something else to focus on to help collect your thoughts, choose a fixture in the room, such as the ceiling or anything else that will not allow you to be distracted.Finally, once you have finished, never hang around outside afterwards to attend the discussion by other students. 57_______A.Do not arrive too early, though, as other people’s anxiety can be contagious,and you may suffer from undue panic.B.Try not to be tempted to look at those around you, or at the clock.C.When you get home, read the examination paper through and look up all the wordsyou didn’t understand.D.Sleep, exercise and relaxation are all just as important.E.Map out a quick plan of points you wish to make and how much time you should spendon each question.F.Go and have a well-earned rest, then prepare for your next exam.G.Talk with parents about the exam.第四部分写作 ( 共2节满分25分 )第一节短文改错共10小题每小题1分满分10分.假定英语课上老师要求同桌之间交换修改作文,请你修改你同桌写的以下作文。
