Look over the countryside and y ou will see that I am in the majority.”Blue interrupted, “You only think about the earth, but consider the sky and the sea. It is the water that is the basis of life.”Yellow chuckled. “The sun is yellow, as well as the moon and the stars. Every time yo u look at a sunflower, the whole world starts to smile.”Red could bear it no longer. “I am the ruler of all of you. I am blood-life’s blood! I am the color of danger and bravery. I bring fire into the blood. I am the color of passion and love.”Purple s tood at his full height. “I am the color of royalty and power. I am the sign of authority and wisdom. People do not question me! They listen and obey.”Finally Indigo spoke with determination, “Think of me and I am the color of silence. I represent thought and reflection. You need me for balance and contrast, for prayer and inner peace.”The colors went on boasting, each showing off his or her own advantages.Suddenly there came a flash of bright lightening. Thunder rolled and boomed. Rain started to pour down. The colors were scared to death.In the midst of the quarrelling, rain began to speak, “You foolish colors.

I crouched (蹲) low there and immersed (沉浸于) myself in the false hope of finding a treasure (宝物) larger than the small 26 on the shore.A man jogged along the waves 27 my direction. When he came near me, he slowed to a walk. I didn’t 28 him until he was almost standing over me. Too young to be 29 of strangers, I got on my feet and looked at him. It was then that I saw what was in his 30 , a beautiful bright cream-colored shell, the kind of thing that I was looking for. He smiled as I stared in 31 , and then, to my shock, he handed it to me. I held it 32 before me like a diamond, not 33 my eyes.“I think you will like it,” he said, and then continued his 34 down the beach.I do not 35 his voice, his clothes or even his face, 36 I do still have the shell, and the greatest lesson I’ve ever 37 . Now the shell sits on my bedside table, not as 38 and big as it was, but it is still there, a 39 reminder that there is 40 in the world.That man saved my belief in the kindness of people, and he saved my belief that one can find what means something in life. I see my shell every day, and I know that I can 41 bad days because there are good things in my life. In the end, all that we have is 42 we have done for others. The shell is 43 to me, as important as another man who returned to the plane to 44 me my lost jacket.I know that 45 a difference in someone’s life, no matter how big or small, is what truly matters, and that it is worth all the treasure in the world.26.

Zhou, with his two partners, came out as third winners, next to the teams from Qinghua University in Beijing and Shanghai Jiaotong University.Zhou took up computer six years ago. He took his parents’advice and entered his name for a computer class. When asked how to balance his sc -hool work and his after-school computer class. Zhou said that it was diff cult to keep balanced between the two. Thanks to his hard work, he is always listed as one of the five best students in his class after exams. Zhou gets no introduction from his parents. Whenever he has problems he disc -usses with his classmates. Self-teaching is not an easy thing and many stu -dents have given up. But Zhou Yongjie is not discouraged. He also regards the computer as a tool for studying maths and other subjects. He also does some programming for running in his spare time.Talking about the international contest, Zhou seemed to be a little excited. He said he and his two partners were supposed to solve eight problems within five hours, including the meal time. They divided the work among themselves and finally solved six problems with joint efforts. What impressed him most was that when a problem was solved, the team would be given a balloon as anencouragement. So once in a while, they would look around and wonder how other teams were going. Surprisingly, Zhou Yongjie hasn’t decided whether to work as a full-time computer programmer in the future. He prefers to do what he likes most and will regard computer as an instrument.51. Which of the following do we know from the passage?A. Zhou Yongjie still made better progress in his school work besides the computer.B. As a result of learning computer, he always got the first place in examinations.C. Zhou Yongjie took up computer when he was six years old.D. Zhou Yongjie has made up hi mind to do some research on com -puter.52. No matter when Zhou Yongjie meets some problems in his studies, ________.A. he asks for some advice from his parentsB. he has a discussion with his classmatesC. he thinks them over himselfD. he gives them up53. During the contest, __________.A. Zhou solved eight problems within five hoursB. Zhou and his partners solved five problems within five hoursC. Zhou and his partners worked out all the problems with joint efforts within five hoursD. Zhou and his partners worked out six problems and got the third place54. Why is Zhou always regarded as one of the best students in his class after exams?A. For he is very shy and quiet.B. With the help of his two partners.C. Because of his working very hard at his subjects.D. With the help of his computer.55. Which of the following is the best title?A. Self-teaching Is Not EasyB. A Young Computer ExpertC. A Young Student’s SuccessD. The Secret of SuccessCYou may know the English letters A, B and C. But do you know there are people called ABC? You may like eating banana s. But did you know there is a “banana person”? How strange!Are these people from “another Earth”? No. They are just Chinese people like you and me.ABC means American-Born Chinese. An ABC is a Chinese, but was born in the United States. Sometimes, people call an ABC a “banana person”. A banana is yellow outside andwhite inside. So, when a person is a banana, he or she is white inside—thinking like aWesterner and yellow outside—looking like a Chinese.Do you know why? Usually, ABCs know little about China or the Chinese language. Some of them don’t speak Chinese.But if ABCs cannot speak Chinese, can we still call them Chinese people? Yes, of course.They are Chinese. They are overseas Chinese. These people may be citizens(公民) of another country like the US, Canada or Singapore. But they have Chinese blood. Their parents,grandparents or even great-grandparents were from China. They all have black eyes and black hair.But they are not Chinese citizens. They are not the people of the People’s Republic of China.For example, we all know the famous scientist C.N. Yang(杨振宁). He got the Nobel Prize for Physics in 1957. The Chinese love him, but he is an American citizen.56. What’s the author’s purpose in writing this passage?A. He wants to tell us something a bout “ABC”.B. He wants to show that Chinese are well respected in America.C. He wants to tell us some knowledge about the English language.D. He wants to introduce the American culture to us.57. Chinese in Western countries are called “banana persons” because ____.A. their bodies are white inside but yellow outsideB. they think like Westerners but look like ChineseC. they were born in China but go to study in AmericaD. they like to eat bananas58. C.N. Yang is mentioned here to show that ____.A. American Chinese are great.B. we love American ChineseC. The Chinese can win Nobel PrizesD. American Chinese are not Chinese citizens59. “ABC” in this passage means _____.A. three English lettersB. a kind of bananaC. Chinese born in AmericaD. Americans born in China60. The underlines word “blood” many probably mean _____.A. 国籍B. 血统C. 爱心D. 公民四．词汇（15小题，每小题1分，共15分，注意单词形式）1.Was he the p____ ____ owner of the old house?2.

Not having enough bouquets （花束）for all 150 people of a health center, Law asked the staff to provide a list of patients who needed cheering up most, "Thefirst woman I approached thought it was a mistake, and that the flowers couldn' tpossi bly be for her, ” says Law. "I said they were a gift, and we talked for a half hour."In addition to health centers, Floranthropie focuses on community groups devoted to the elderly. Theleme is a volunteer for Les Petits Fieres, an organization that aims to help the elderly who don' t have a support system. The group receives a dozen or so bouquets from Floranthropie monthly, and then redistributes them. a Our motto is 'flowers before bread,” says Theleme. "We don' t focus on primary care, butrather on nourishing （滋养）the spirit. Floranthropie helps that. It' s amazing what a big difference a small bouquet can make."In the beginning, most of Floranthropies donations came through word of mouth. These days, Law receives messages from strangers via her organization^ s Facebook page and has connected with corporations and flower wholesalers. Law hopes to expand Floranthropie nationally, but at this point is happy to be able to oversee each delivery personally.1.What made Christine Law set up F1oranthropie?A. The Waste of flowers.B.

But it won' t be performed by a paid musician, or even a street entertainer playing for coins. It will just be a random passer-by, jamming for the fun of it on one of the pianos that the national railroad company, S. N. C. F. , has fixed in nearly 100 stations across France. They are free for anyone to play, and travelers from all walks of life have taken to doing just that.Gares & Connexions, the S. N. C. F. division that manages its stations, rents theinstruments from the producer, Yamaha: which maintains them and tunes them every month or two. The first one was set up in the Gare Montparnasse in Paris in 2012.The music, mixed with the sounds of shouting passengers, screaming trains and rolling suitcases, gives French stations a special soundscape. The amateur musicians have included Irish soccer fans and even babies. In 2014, Gares & Connexions and Yamaha organized a nationwide contest called Your Turn to Play, asking participants to submit videos of themselves using one of the pianos. It drew nearly 900 entries.Isn，t the railroad company taking a big chance? Apparently not: "None of the instruments has been vandalized to this day, or even merely damaged, " said Claire Foumon, a spokeswoman for Gares & Connexions, "They are shared and respected by all."So if you miss a train in Paris; Bordeaux or Marseille one day, perhaps someone will be playing a favorite piece that will ease your pain. Or perhaps you' 11 sit down and play your annoyance away yourself.1.Why did Gares & Connexions fix pianos in railway stations?A. To advertise Yamaha，s products.B. To make stations more attractive.C. To let travelers have a relaxing trip.D. To help street artists make a living.2.What does Paragraph 4 mainly tell us?A. The contest has proved a hit.B. The pianos are very popular.C.

Reserved in advance.D. Destroyed on purpose.4.What would be the best title for the text?A. Miss a train yet catch a tuneB. A soundscape in the memoryC. The role of piano in French lifeD. An amazing train with a piano bar4、Airbags, now found in almost every vehicle, have saved countless lives and largely reduced the severity of injuries in crashes. Similar technology could greatly reduce broken hips （髓部）resulting from a fall, something most seniors fear.Dr. Robert Buckman and his start-up company, Active Protective in Allentown, Pennsylvania, has developed a promising solution, a wearable airbag that can protect hip bones in the event of a fall. The idea was the result of Dr. Buckman, s years as a doctor at Temple University. He noticed how many elderly people were being brought into hospitals with broken hip due to falls, and how they often never completely recovered from the injuries. He started to ask what he could do for these people, and that was when he started trying to figure out whether there was a way of helping people who wereat the highest risk of falling and suffering these kinds of injuries.The device is worn much like a regular belt, but on the outside of the clothing, and it includes sensors that monitor the movement of hips. If the device detects that the person, is falling, an airbag opens before the person hits the ground, cushioning the fall. When the wearer hits the ground, the bag reduces the force to the hip bones by 90 percent, enough to avoid the majority of hip injuries.With one out of every three people aged 65 and older suffering serious falls each year, Active Protective has a big market for its wearable device. It also has the potential to sizably reduce hip - related health care expenses: Hip injuries among the elderly cost the US health care system in 2012 $30 billion, which doesn' t include the long-term care expenses associated with the high percentage of patients that can no longer live independently.1.What is the purpose of the Active Protective' s airbag?A. To avoid hip injuries among seniorsB. To protect seniors from car accidents.C. To help seniors with their daily nursing.D. To help doctors deal with serious injures2.What inspired Dr Robert Buckman to make the device?A. A report on seniors' healthB. A serious fall he experiencedC. His work experiences as a doctorD. Suggestions of seniors at Temple University3.How does the device mainly work?A. By predicting road conditionsB. By speeding up bone recovery.C. By reducing the effects of falling.D. By preventing people from failing.4.What does the author think of the Active Protective' s airbag?A. It still needs improvingB. It has a promising futureC. It may encourage seniors to do exercise spend on seniors 5、 In a few months you' 11 go to college. Are you ready for some of the newness that is about to come your way?

You can (1)this question if you study British history.First there was England. Wales was linked to it in the thirteenth century. Now when people (2) to England you find Wales included as well. Next England and Wales were joined to Scotland in the seventeenth century and the name was changed to u Great Britain" . Happily this was (3) without conflict when King James of Scotland became King of England and Wales as well. Finally the English government tried in the early twentieth century to form the United Kingdom by getting Ireland connected in the same peaceful way. However, the southern part of Ireland was unwilling and broke away to form its own government. So only Northern Ireland joined with England, Wales and Scotland to become the United Kingdom and this was shown to the world in a new flag called the Union Jack.To their (4) the four countries do work together in some areas (eg, the (5) and international relations), but they still have very different institutions. For example, Northern Ireland, England and Scotland have different educational and legal systems as well as different football teams for competitions like the World Cup!England is the largest of the four countries, and for (6) it is divided roughly into three zones. The zone nearest France is called the South of England, the middle zone is called the Midlands and the one nearest to Scotland is known as the North. You find most of the population settled in the south, but most of the industrial cities in the Midlands and the North of England. Although, (7) , these cities are not as large as those in China, they have world-famous football teams and some of them even have two! It is a pity that the industrial cities built in the nineteenth century do not attract visitors. For historical (8) you have to go to older but smaller towns built by the Romans. There you will find out more about British history and culture.The greatest historical treasure of all is London with its museums, art collections, theatres, parks and buildings. It is the center of national government and its (9) . It has the oldest port built by the Romans in the first century AD, the oldest building begun by the Anglo-Saxons in the 1060s and the oldest castle constructed by later Norman rulers in 1066. There has been four sets of invaders of England. The first invaders, the Romans, left their towns and roads. The second, the Anglo-Saxons, left their language and their government. The third, the Vikings, influenced the (10) and place-names of the North of England, and the fourth, the Normans, left castles and introduced new words for food.If you look around the British countryside you will find evidence of all these invaders. You must keep your eyes open if you are going to make your trip to the United Kingdom enjoyable and worthwhile.五、短文改错（共1题）1、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。
