People behind us were older；their children were in their late teens, and we didn’t see them or hear from them much.Time passed and a younger family moved in. While at first we thought this would be fun for the kids, it quickly became a pain. If one of our children had a birthday party the neighbors would line up their children along the back fence to watch. We would have invited their children if they had been of the same age. While our older children had parties the neighbor’s little kids would shout through the fence the entire time; we knew it was time to get a new fence.When we built our fence next to the old one, they not only paid nothing for it, but watched us have it built. After we built our fence the mother of the house would call over and ask who was jumping on our trampoline (蹦床). She could only see the tops of their heads and couldn’t figure out who it was. Good people, just too much interest in us. Years later they rebuilt their houses and built a pretty fence between the houses next to the old one. They were not surprised that we didn’t want to pay for it. I have to admit their fence is much prettier than our wooden one.Our yard is next to four other homes; each of the families has had his own home with a strong fence. We have left ours in place. While we love all our neighbors we are glad we have fences between each of us. Only in this way can we protect our little privacy (隐私), as fences certainly do make good neighbors.36. When the author’s older children had a party, .A. his neighbor’s children also had a party as they didB. they would invite his neighbor’s children to attend itC. his neighbor’s children would shout behind the fenceD. his neighbor’s children would watch it through the window37. Why did the author’s home have a wooden fence built?A. The wooden fence looked more beautiful.B. With the fence his home could become safer.C. They didn’t want their little privacy to be known.D. The author’s family didn’t like their new neighbor.38. Which of the following statements is TRUE?A. The author’s neighbors all have built strong fences.B. Old people living behind liked children very much.C. The young neighbors wanted the author to pay for the fence.D. The young neighbors were very angry about the author’s ugly fence.39. We can guess from the passage that .A. the young mother of the house was interested in other families’ lifeB. the neighbor of the author started to live there when the author was very youngC. the author thinks that the fences destroy the friendship between the neighborsD. the author’s family was not a big one when the younger family moved hereBDuring an earthquake, you should need to know a thing or two on what to do. If the earthquake strikes while you’re inside a house, you should lie on the floor and take cover under a strong table or other furniture. If there is no furniture you can cover your head with your arms and keep still in the corner of the room. You should remain away from windows, glass walls, or anything that can fall.If you are in bed, stay still. Hold firmly onto your bed and make use of a pillow (枕头) to safeguard your head. You may use a doorway or shelter but only when it is close to you. It should also be considered whether it is strong enough to deal with the load. Do not use lifts, even when they work. Electricity may go out at any time. Many injuries happen when people try to rush out. This means you ought to stay still in your house or perhaps wherever you are.When you are outdoors, you should be far away from buildings, power wires or lights. You should be in the open until the quake stops. Remember that many earthquake deaths outside the house come from debris (碎片), falling walls, flying glass and other falling objects. If an earthquake strikes and you are driving, you pull up to the side of the highway and stop as quickly as possible. You ought not to stop under trees, buildings or power wires. Don’t stop in the middle of the street since it could trouble others.When trapped, you shouldn’t move. Your mouth should be covered with a piece of clothing or handkerchief. Do not shout whenever possible. Shouting should be employed at last to get help from rescuers. This is because it is possible for you to breathe some dirty dust.40. If there is no furniture in the room you should stay .A. near the windowB. far from the doorC. in the center of the roomD. in the corner of the room41. What are you advised to do if you are in bed?A. We should get up quickly and ask for help.B. We should stay in bed with a pillow protecting our head.C. We should get up quickly and rush out of the bedroom.D. We should get up quickly and find something to protect ourselves.42. Why are you advised not to use a lift?A. The lift usually doesn’t work.B. We will probably be trapped in it.C. Too many people are using the lift.D. The building probably will fall down.43. We can learn from this passage that .A. some people may be attacked by debris or falling objectsB. when trapped we should shout for help loudlyC. during an earthquake we should stop our car in the middle of the streetD. if an earthquake strikes we should cover our head with a piece of clothingCNo one could accuse (指责) them of not trying to make it work.After incredible 115 years together two giant turtles at an Austrian zoo have gone their separate ways —refusing to share a cage any longer.The falling-out, which has baffled (使迷惑) the officials of the zoo, marks the end of the world’s oldest animal “marriage”.“We get the feeling that they can’t stand the sight of each other anymore,” said Helga Happ, zoo boss.Bibi and Poldi have got along quite well at the Austrian zoo in Klagenfurt for 36 years, having moved together from the Basel zoo in Switzerland.Both are 115 years old. The pair grew up together and finally became an attraction of the zoo.Back on the singles market: zoo officials are not clear about why the turtles have fallen out but they say that Bibi, the female, starts attacking her partner, biting off part of his shell.“But for no reason that anyone can discover they seem to have fallen out, they just can’t stand each other,” added Happ.It seems that it was Bibi, the female, who started the break-up.According to the newspaper The Austrian Times, staff at the zoo realized all was not well when Bibi attacked Poldi — biting off a chunk (厚片) of his shell. She launched further attacks on her partner until her partner was moved to a different location.The zoo even called in animal experts to try and reunite the couple with counseling but, so far, to no avail. In order to get them in a more loving mood, the experts tried to put some fun back into the relationship by getting them to play games together, but it has not worked.Happ told the newspaper, “It is very rare for animals who are a pair to fall apart after such a long per iod. We hope we can bring a reconciliation (和解) around,” she added.Keeping the animals apart is important as weighing in at 100 kilos each — if they wanted they could kill the other.Giant turtles have no teeth but instead have a horn-rimmed mouth and a powerful jaw which can cause serious damage.44. Why did the two giant turtles get separated?A. They attacked each other.B. They were too large for the cage.C. They couldn’t stand each other.D. The exact reason is unknown.45. What do we know about the two giant turtles?A. They used to fight a lot.B. They came from different zoos.C. They were of different ages.D. They used to live in peace.46. What can we infer from Happ’s words?A. It’s common for animals to break up.B. The two giant turtles will reunite.C. Animals that live long together seldom fall apart.D. The zoo officials will put the two giant turtles into a cage.DAnthony Marc Robles is a college wrestler (摔跤选手) that many people recognize. This summer he was a featured guest on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno. Robles was honored on the 2011 ESPY Awards broadcast with not one but two awards: The Jimmy V Award for Perseverance — named for the late college basketbal l coach Jim Valvano, and given to a “member of the sporting world who has overcome great difficulties through physical perseverance and determination,” according to ESPN — and Best Male Athlete with a Disability.Robles did all this, despite having been born without his right leg. Growing up in Mesa, Arizona, Robles was first introduced to wrestling in ninth grade. Despite having a difficult start — with more losses than wins in his first year — Robles set a 129-15 overall record at Mesa High School, winning two Arizona state titles.Robles said, “I didn’t get into the sport for the attention. I wrestle because I love wrestling. Wrestling helped me to mature. I got so much self-confidence from the sport. I love the sport. But from here on my wrestling compe tition days are over, and I’ll be focusing on my next goal, which is to be an enthusiastic speaker. I’ll be around wrestling all my life. I love it so much.”The 22-year-old Robles was even more calm when presented with his Jimmy V Award at the ESPY: “Ever y soul who comes to the earth with a leg or two at birth must wrestle his opponents (对手), knowing it’s not what is, it’s what can be that measures worth. Do it hard, just make it possible, and I’ll not complain about the pain I have experienced. My spirit is unconquerable (不可征服的). Fearless, I will face each opponent, forI know I am capable. Although there is blood, sweat and tears, I am unstoppable.”47.

That is what “keeping up with the Joneses” is about. It is the story of someone who tried to look as rich as his neighbours.The expression was first used in 1913 by a young American called Arthur Momand. He told this story about himself. He began earning $ 125 a week at the age of 23. That was a lot of money in those days. He got married and moved with his wife to a very rich neighbourhood outside New York City. When he saw that rich people rode horses, Momand went horseback riding every day. When he saw that rich people had servants（佣人）, Momand and his wife also hired a servant and gave big parties for their new neighbours.It was like a race, but one could never finish his race because one was always trying to keep up. The race ended for Momand and his wife when they could no longer pay for their new way of life. They moved back to a flat in New York City.Momand looked around him and noticed that many people do things just to keep up with rich lifestyle of th eir neighbours. He saw the funny side of it and started to write a series of short stories. He called it “Keeping up with the Joneses” because “Jones” is a very common name in the United States. “Keeping up with the Joneses”came to mean keeping up with ri ch lifestyle of the people around you. Momand’s series appeared in different newspapers across the country for over 28 years.People never seem to get tired of keeping up with the Joneses. And there are “Joneses” in every city of the world. But one must get tired of trying to keep up with the Joneses because no matter what one does, Mr. Jones always seems to be ahead.31. Why did Momand write the short stories in the end?A. He worked as a writerB. He enjoyed his lifestyle as a rich manC. He thought the rich would like his stories.D. He wanted to tell people it’s tired to keep up with rich neighbors32. Some people want to keep up with the Joneses because they ________.A. want to be as rich as their neighboursB. want others to know or to think that they are richC. don’t want others to know they are richD. want to be happy33. It can be inferred (推断) from the story that rich people like to ________.A. live outside New York CityB. live in New York CityC. live in flatsD. have many neighbours34. Arthur Momand used the name “Jones” in his series of short stories because “Jones” is ________.A. an important nameB. a popular name in the United StatesC. his neighbour’s nameD. not a good name35. If a person who keeps up with the Joneses, he would _________.A. do as the poor persons around him doB. do everything he likes to doC. do as his neighbours doD. do as the rich people around him doB“Did you go skating a lot last year?” I asked. Jen shook her head and looked at me. Finally she said, “On Thanksgiving, Mom and I always went to visit some friends who lived on a farm. I especially loved seeing their big turkeys.”Until then, I didn’t think about how Jen felt. She had a new stepfather (继父) and stepbrother, and had a new town and home, too. Jen and her mom used to live near a lake where Dad and I went every summer, and she had to move up north with us. She had more changes than me.Jen seemed sad, so I was busy thinking of some ways to cheer her up on Thanksgiving. I told her my plan and she was excited. First we made a huge snowball, and then a small snowball. Then we built a wall behind the big snowball as a tail. Jen mixed some food coloring with water, saying, “We can spray (喷) colors on the tail.” Our snow turkey had a red, blue, green, and yellow tail. We were so busy that we didn’t notice our parents come outside. Dad found a hat for thesnow turkey, and Mom wrapped her scarf around its neck.“Thanks for cheering Jen up,” Mom said. “You’re a good brother, and you always come up with great ideas.’’ A happy feeling spread through me. I began to understand how much she cared about everyone in our new family.( )36. What did Jen do on Thanksgiving in the past?A. She went skating with her friends.B. She went to the farm with her mother.C. She stayed at home with her mother.D. She made snow turkeys with her mother.( )37. What can we learn from the second paragraph?A. Jen lived near a lake in the past.B. The writer was Jen’s stepfather.C. Jen moved up north for studying.D. The writer just moved out of his old house.( )38. How many people are there in Jen’s new family?A. Two.B. Three.C. Four.D. Five.( )39. Which of the following is the right order?①made a small snowball ②found a hat③made a huge snowball ④sprayed colors on the tail⑤wrapped a scarf around the neck ⑥built a wall behind the big snowballA. ①③⑥④②⑤B. ①②③④⑤⑥C. ③①⑥④②⑤D. ③①⑥②④⑤( )40. What can we infer (推断) from the underlined sentence?A. Jen’s stepmother was not friendly to the writer.B. Jen didn’t feel happy after moving here.C. Jen’s mother did a lot to make Jen happy.D. The writer felt happy because his stepmother liked him.CWhat do you think of black cats? Are they unluckier than cats of other colors? Many people in Western countries think so. Scientists at the University of California, Berkeley (UC Berkeley), did a study on cat colours and people’s understandings of cat personalities.The study found that people do judge(判断) cat personalities by color. Scientists did a survey on the Internet. There were 49 statements(描述) matching five cat colorings with 10 personalities. People think orange and bi-coloured (双色的) cats are friendly, tri-coloured (三色的) cats are not generous, and white cats are calm, lazy and shy. As for black cats, people think they don’t have special personalities.But why do so many people dislike keeping black cats as pets? People think black cats have less special personalities, which might be because of their bad reputation (口碑). They think black cats may bring bad luck, especially at Halloween. Movies and television shows also make people believe that.Although people have these ideas, UC Berkeley scientists give another reason: people don’t think black cats are pretty enough. After all, nothing can show black cats are unluckier than other cats. “You can’t judge a cat by its colour, because it’s the personality of the cat, not the colour, that will let you know if the cat is right for you,” Cathy Marden, a scientist said.( )41. Many people in Western countries may think black cats are .A. lovely animalsB. a sign of bad luckC. a sign of good luckD. unfriendly animals( )42. The main idea of paragraph 2 is that .A. people often complain about black cats on the InternetB. people think cats of different colours have different personalitiesC. black cats are less popular than other catsD. the study is a great success( )43. According to the study, people think that .A. black cats have special personalitiesB. orange and bi-coloured cats are generousC. cats with three colours are friendlyD. white cats are calm, lazy and shy( )44. People don’t like black cats for the following reasons EXCEPT .A. black cats often appear in TV showsB. black cats bring bad luck to peopleC. black cats have bad reputationsD. they don’t think black cats are beautiful( )45. The passage mainly talks about .A. why black cats are popular in moviesB. why people are not willing to keep black cats as petsC. different colour cats have different personalitiesD. different people have different ideas on black cats四、填空（每小题1分，满分20分）A. 根据句意和汉语提示，用正确的单词填空。

Reading Comprehension (25%)Directions: Read the following passages and choose the corresponding answer. Passage 1Female employees consistently pay lower airfares than men do for the same flights because they tend to book earlier.We compared the airfare paid by employees in the same position within a company for the same class of travel and used a common statistical technique to account for other factors that might affect differences in airfares. We found that women paid on average $18 less per ticket than their male colleagues. Further investigation allowed us to conclude that this gap is largely explained by the fact that women tended to book earlier than men, 1.8 days on average.We wanted to determine what was causing these gender differences in booking business trips so we tested a variety of possible explanations, such as women choosing to plan ahead or male frequent travelers being inclined to book late. None of these explained away the gender gap, so we applied data collected from surveys that express consumer preferences that play a central role in economic decisions, such as patience and risk avoidance.We found that only the concept of "negative reciprocity"-in which an employee who feels unfairly treated engages in negative behaviors, such as spending their company's money less carefully- explains these differences. The surveys showed men tend to exhibit more of these negative behaviors than women.This isn't to say that all men engage in these behaviors-or that booking relatively late is a sign of abnormal behavior. It only means that the gender gap disappears when we plug in the negativereciprocity variable.Prior research on negative reciprocity among workers found that it can result in lower employee motivation, business performances and workplace morale (士气) and culture.Our results show another way these negative behaviors can manifest themselves, like in airline bookings, and add to evidence that women are less likely to engage in them.Companies spend significant sums of money on business travel. While that $18 difference per ticket may seem small, it adds up. Our analysis suggests early booking by women can translate into savings of $1 million a year for a large multinational company with 20,000 regular travelers.1.What did the author's team conclude about the gender difference in airfares from their further investigation?A.It is largely attributed to women booking earlier than men.B.It is largely explained by women's choosing cheaper flights.C.It is mainly accounted for by male employees' readiness to pay more.D.It is due to the fact that women care more about their company's money.2.What did the researchers want to determine by testing a variety of possible explanations?A.What made male frequent travelers book air tickets late.B.What caused women to plan ahead in booking business trips.C.What motivated women to book cheaper flights.D.What accounted for the gender gap in airfares.3.What happened when the negative reciprocity variable was taken into account?A.Both men and women were found to engage in negative behaviors.B.Neither men nor women viewed booking late as a bad behavior.C.The gender difference in airfare expenses no longer existed.D, The gender gap tended to narrow to a significant degree.4.What did prior research on negative reciprocity among workers find?A.It can do more harm to the workplace than to employees.B.It contributes to the male-female divide in the workplace.C.It proves to be counterproductive in a number of ways.D.It can result in increasing labor-management conflicts.5.What does the author emphasize about their analysis in the last paragraph?A.It can help companies increase their savings significantly.B.It can duly contribute to companies’ business performance.C.It can translate women's booking practice into men's behavior.D.It can enhance large multinational companies' competitiveness.Passage 2Daniel waved at his mother who was watching from the kitchen window. She waved back. He was having fun tossing his new football into the air and catching it again. Suddenly, he saw the neighbor’s gray cat crawl along the top of the wooden fence that divided his backyard from the neighbor’s.“You mean old cat!” Daniel shouted. Daniel didn’t like that cat. He had tried to pet it once and got a big scratch. The cat yawned and then scratched the top of the fence. Tiny pieces of wood floated down to the grass. “Stop wrecking my daddy’s fence!” Daniel demanded. He took the football and threw it with all his might. At the last possible instant, the cat jumped out of the way. The ball flew over the fence, passing right where the cat had been.Then he heard a SMASH! “Oh, no!” he groaned. Daniel crept toward the fence and peeked through a crack. He saw his football lying by the wall of his neighbor’s house. And right beside it was a big blue flowerpot cracked on one side. “Oh, no!” Daniel moaned, “What am I going to do?”Daniel walked around to the gate. “I should ask for permission to go into our neighbor’s yard,” he thought. “But then Mom will find out about the bad thing I’ve done. “He didn’t want that to happen. Instead, he checked the latch. It wasn’t locked. Opening the gate, Daniel walked inside. He ran toward his football and quickly picked it up. Staring at the broken flowerpot, he wondered what to do. “Whatever l do, I’dbetter hurry,” he thought. “l shouldn't be here.”Daniel stuffed the pieces of pottery into the pocket of his sweat shirt. “This is really bad,” he mumbled. Grabbing the flowerpot with both hands, he spun it around until the broken spot faced the wall. He smiled. The bad thing was hard to see. “Now I’ve got to hide the pieces,” he thought. Closing the gate behind him, Daniel searched for a place to hide the broken pieces.“Daniel, where have you been?” Mom asked as she headed up the sidewalk. Daniel wanted to say that he’d been playing in the front yard. He wanted to lie. But that would be another bad thing. He remembered all the bad things he had done: throwing the ball at the cat, smashing the flowerpot, going into the neighbor’s yard without permission. He suddenly realized his fourth bad thing: trying to hide the broken flowerpot.And now Daniel wanted to hide all his bad things with a big lie. No, that would be really bad, he decided. “Mom, would you still love me, even if l told you some bad things I've done?” he asked. His mother smiled and said, “Of course, Daniel!” She knelt beside him so that she could listen better. Daniel took a deep breath and pulled a handful of pottery out of his pocket. Mom could see the broken pieces, but that was okay because telling the truth was easier than telling a lie.6.

Serawai is the name of a sub-district in Sintang Regency, Indonesia.At that time, I was warmly welcomed by peaceful green yard. My trip was full of unforgettable moments: great people, delicious food, and new cultures. However, what left a remarkable impression on me was meeting up with my friend’s dad, Fx. Ngawan. He is now working as an education supervisor in Sintang Regency.At our first encounter, he looked like a typical Dayaknese man with dark skin. As he mentioned that he used to be an English teacher, we discovered we were a match! I am an English teacher myself. More importantly, he is a language enthusiast and a hyperpolyglot(超级多语者). During the talk, we often switched from one language to the other such as Indonesian, English, Javanese to Ahe. He is now fluent in at least 15 languages and most of them are local languages.When he was assigned to be a teacher and education supervisor, he had to go all the way from Serawai sub-district to Sintang Regency by motorcycle, riding about 170km by motorcycle. The trip could take six hours if the day was bright and sunny. However, it was not uncommon for him to spend three to seven days for the journey if the raining season came. Therefore, he had to stop at some villages if he couldn’t continue the trip and meet up with people with so many different languages along the way. So, whenever he stopped in a particular village, he learned a different language. For him, learning languages helped him to connect with people.In our last talk, he highlighted the importance of learning languages. He hopes that the younger generation in Indonesiastart realizing that language is the gate to open up so many opportunities. Local languages are on the brink of disappearance because more people are leaving it behind. When people stop speaking the languages, the knowledge and culture from that language will also disappear.4. Which of the following impressed the author most?A. Peaceful green yard.B. Delicious food.C. Great people.D. Fx. Ngawan.5. How was Ngawan’s motorcycle trip?A. Difficult.B. Instructive.C. Exciting.D. Interesting.6. What benefit did Ngawan get in his long trip?A. He got enough rest.B. He learned some languages.C. He did much exercise.D. He made many friends.7. What can we infer from the last paragraph?A. Learning languages isn’t an easy job.B. Young people don’t grasp opportunities.C. Local languages are being more important.D. Languages and culture are closely related.CFuturologists are making a lot of predictions about our future life and they are predicting how we will travel, work and live in the next 30 years. By 2048, some futurologists foresee that some “talking” buildings will appear in our life.By the middle of the century, it's believed that buildings will be able to “talk” to people through various sensors when the heating needs to be turned on. As a result, there will be no switches. Instead, a lot of networks will appear, which can be compared to a human nervous system. In the next 30 years, buildings will be made from concrete plastics and shape­changing materials. All of them can heal themselves at that time. As architects (建筑师) are racing to develop the world's tallest buildings, there will be a need for new kinds of elevators, through which vehicles could even travel into the buildings. German engineers have already started working on such technology called Multi.By mid­century, scientists believe that buildings will be miles tall. Some of them may be very large and they can function as small cities. By comparison, at present, the world's tallest building, the Burj Khalifa Tower in Dubai, measures 828 metres high. As the future building can rise through the clouds, their windows will be replaced by virtual screens. In this way, people can choose any view as they like.At height extremes, a London Spaceport is also likely to come into being by 2048 as the space industry develops very quickly. There is a huge cost advantage going to space from as high a base as possible, so a spaceport is very likely to be over 10 km and even as much as 30 km, using carbon­based materials.8．How will the heating system be controlled in the future?A．Through the net. B．Through sensors.C．Through switches. D．Through mobiles.9．What might happen to the future buildings in a disaster?A．They can recover by themselves.B．They can seek help automatically.C．They can transport people into space.D．They can protect people against harm.10．What's likely to be the advantage of Multi?A．Seeing the scenes as you please.B．Allowing vehicles to travel into buildings.C．Connecting the earth with the space.D．Making it possible to build high buildings.11．What does the underlined word “they” (Para.3) most probably refer to?A．Scientists. B．German engineers.C．Future buildings. D．Virtual screens.DStudies have shown most people fail to realise how much time they spend on their smartphones each day.Frank and Amelia’s family were put to a test,using a free app called “Moment-screen Time Tracker”.The Vascellaros—Frank,Amelia,14-year-old twins Frankie and Joe,and 17-year-old Sam—all said they did not really know they were spending so much time on their phones each day.“Honestly,I don’t feel like I’m on my phone a lot,” Amelia Vascellaro said.Amelia was on her phone far less often than Frank,according to the app.While Amelia spent about an hour per day on the phone,Frank spent close to four hours on his phone—which came as a shock to him.The children’s times varied but they often spent more than a couple of hours on the phone as well.Minneapolis-based Dr Kirsten Lind Seal sees phone usage come up a lot among families.Lind Seal said many family members’ phone use has become problematic.“If we hear more than once,‘Do you have to be on your phone right now?Can you please put your phone down?Did you hear what I said?’ it may be a sign that it is negatively influencing our family relationships and our daily lives,” she said.Lind Seal said actually paying attention to how much time one spends on the phone is a good first step in deciding when to put it down.She asks parents to encourage more face-to-face communication for teens and young adults as they continue developing their social and emotional skills.“What we find is that we are really losing out on empathy—the ability to understand other people’s feelings and problems—when we spend a lot of time on our smartphones to communicate with other people,” she said.12.How did the families tested by the app feel about the test results?A.Satisfied.B.Doubtful.C.Uninterested.D.Astonished.13.Why did Lind Seal mention the three questions in Para.5?A.To encourage people to live a simple life.B.To explain the signs of problematic phone use.C.To show the importance of close relationships.D.To ask people if they use phones too much.14.What did Lind Seal want to convey in the last paragraph?A.We should make more face-to-face communication.B.We can understand each other better using smartphones.C.Our ability of empathy is strengthened by smartphones.D.Smartphone usage improves the teens’ emotional skills.15.Where is this text most likely from?A.A diary.B.A guidebook.C.A novel.D.A magazine.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。
