This story happened not long ago,but it is a lesson that has stayed with me and helped me ever since.It was Thanksgiving and I was volunteering with my parents at a shelter for the poor.We served hot food to whoever came in.Most of these people looked as if they had been having hard times; their clothes were worn out and dirty,Then,a man came in,who looked anything but poor.He was well dressed.I wondered what he was doing there and my jaw(下巴)dropped in amazement when he joined the queue for food.What was this man doing?Surely he wasn't going to take food which was meant for those who were really in need!Then my mother quietly took me to one side.She said,“You have thought that the needs of the people who come here must he purely physical.But what if his needs are emotional?What if he needs comfort,friends,or just to be among other people?”Her words hit me like a ton of bricks!I felt like I should apologize to the man--but I didn't.About a week later the shelter received a large donation from an anonymous donor.I couldn't help but wonder if it came from that man.Now,whenever I meet someone,I will remember my mother's lesson and try to send kindness to him according to his needs,no matter how he looks.Needs aren't always seen.But kindness always makes difference.26How did the author feel as the well-dressed man joined the queue for food?A.Surprised.B.Excited.C.Nervous.D.Hopeless.27.What the author's mother said shows that we.A.shouldn't judge a man by his appearanceB.shouldn't complain to othersC.should give others what they wantD.should accept everything we meet28.What does the underlined word“anonymous”in Paragraph4probably mean?A.Important.B.Unknown.C.Independent.D.Excellent.29.From the last paragraph,we learn that.A.seeing is believingB.it's difficult to be kind to othersC.some rich people pretend to be poorD.we should help people based on their needs30.What would be the best title for the passage?A.My Mother's Influence on My GrowthB.The Importance of VolunteeringC.One of My Most Shameful ExperiencesD.A Simple Lesson in KindnessPassage2Red Dog was special.He was not one of those dogs who ran shouting into the wind in groups.He just loved walking with me.Sometimes,on the narrow road,he walked so close that his bright red fur brushed against my leg.“Red Dog,"I’d say,“each morning when we meet for the first time,why do you always look so glad?Of course,Red Dog never made reply with words.If he wanted to say something,he spoke with his eyes,or the bend in his tail.However,since we were friends,that was enough.A t night,Red Dog slept on the front porch,lying there and dreaming dreams of long summer days and endless walks.His night-world filled up with the moon and stars,hoot-owl hoots,and ghostly white fogs that crept silently into the fields.Between dreams,I think that Red Dog must have awakened,raised his head,and looked around. Maybe then he became a little lonely.And probably he wondered why I got to sleep inside,but he had to sleep on the porch.But,you see,Red Dog lived in a time when dogs such as he were not allowed to go inside their masters'homes.In those days,most people didn't even believe that dogs had feelings,though I did.Yes,during those days when we walked in the fields and woods,Red Dog and I helped one another see things in special ways.Weedy roadsides were like museums and the fields of corn and beans around us were like circuses with many rings.31.Why was Red Dog special?A.Because he loved walking with the author.B.Because he could swim.C.Because he loved playing with other dogs.D.Because he could play with kids.32.What would Red Dog do to express himself?A.Raise his head.e his eyes or tail.C.Lie down outside.D.Speak a human language.33.How might Red Dog feel when he awakened at night?A.Curious and excited.B.Terrified and lonely.C.Happy and excited.D.Lonely and puzzled.34.How did most people think about dogs in the story?A.Dogs could speak with words.B.Dogs didn't have feelings.C.Dogs could enter masters’houses.D.Dogs were people's friends.35.What is the passage mainly about?A.Bedrooms and yards.B.Fields and woods.C.Red Dog and his master.D.Museums and circuses.Passage3For the past28years,barber Liu Jianjun and his team have been volunteering i n Changchun.He and his team,which has3,700volunteers,have given free haircuts to around80,000people.They also volunteer to help those in need,such as seniors who live alone,and send them daily necessities during festivals.The53-year-old has been helping others since he opened his barber shop in1994.“I lost my mother when I was6,and my father left home soon after,”he said.“I was raised by my grandmother and was looked after by my neighbors.So when he opened his barber shop,he decided to repay some of the kindness he had been shown.Every day he arrives at his shop an hour before opening to give free haircuts to people over70. He also spends his spare time providing door-to-door service for those who have difficulty walking.His team members visit seniors to help them buy daily needs,move heavy objects and make repairs.They also offer free haircuts to deliverymen and sanitation workers.“Fortunately,I got a lot of support from my team,friends and relatives,"he said.“The team is like a big family and its members care for and help each other.I really want to thank all of them.The youngest member of his team is7.“Several students have joined,and they volunteer with their parents,"he said.“When we visit nursing

of visible light.All the energy radiates out from the center of our solar system in the form of light,heat,gamma rays and X-rays,and magnetic fields.But in fact,the Sun's energy is generated in its core and moves outward to its surface where it is released as electromagnetic radiation.The heat, light and radiation that come from the Sun are all examples of electromagnetic radiation.It takes about8minutes for the electromagnetic radiation from the Sun to travel93million miles to the Earth.When it arrives,some of that solar energy is blocked or absorbed by the atmosphere,but what isn't blocked is absorbed or reflected by the air,land,water,plants and other matter that covers the surface of our planet,When the molecules in matter gain energy,they move more,vibrating in place or even bouncing off one another.Unlike electromagnetic radiation,heat must be transferred or conducted through matter.Some types of matter,like water,are really good at holding onto this energy.Clouds of water particles and gases in the atmosphere absorb some of this heat too.This absorption of heat helps the Earth stay warm.It's one reason our planet stays at a livable temperature and doesn't change radically from freezing cold to blazing hot every day.Energy from the Sun makes it possible for life to exist on the Earth.It is responsible for photosynthesis in plants,vision in animals,and many other natural processes,air and water that creates weather.Most plants need at least some sunlight to grow,so without light,there would be no plants,and without plants,there would not be oxygen for us to breathe.Infrared radiation from the Sun is responsible for heating the Earth's atmosphere and surface.Without energy from the Sun,the Earth would freeze.There would be no winds,ocean currents or

it?The fact is that,when you have enough vision,you may have the courage.And then you simply have to pursue it,however crazy it might seem to others.Remember that everything starts from small things:Rome was not built in a day.Scientists sayt hat everything in the universe comes from a smaller unit than you can possibly assume.So it doesn't matter where you are at present,because small beginnings become great things at last.Think big by enlisting(争取)others:To think big,you need to see yourself as a small part of a greater whole.Enlist people who are better than you.If you're not the

There are two sections in it. Section 1 (40%)Directions: There are 4 passages in this section. After each passage there are 5 questions. Each question is followed by four choices marked A, B, Cand D. You should choose the best answers to the questions and mark the corresponding letters on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center.Passage 1It's easy to see how to help some people, but what about those whose needs are not so clear? This story happened not long ago, but it is a lesson that has stayed with me and helped me ever since.It was Thanksgiving and I was volunteering with my parents at a shelter for the poor. We served hot food to whoever came in. Most of these people looked as if they had been having hard times;their clothes were worn out and dirty. Then, a man came in, who looked anything but poor. He was well dressed. I wondered what he was doing there and my jaw(下巴)dropped in amazement when he joined the queue for food. What was this man doing? Surely he wasn't going to take food which was meant for those who were really in need!Then my mother quietly took me to one side. She said,“You have thought that the needs of the people who come here must be purely physical. But what if his needs are emotional? What if he needs comfort, friends, or just to be am ong other people?” Her words hit me like a ton of bricks! I felt like I should apologize to the man-but I didn't.About a week later the shelter received a large donation from an anonymous donor. I couldn't help but wonder if it came from that man.Now, whenever I meet someone, I will remember my mother's lesson and try to send kindness to him according to his needs, no matter how he looks. Needs aren't alwaysseen. But kindness always makes a difference.26. How did the author feel as the well-dressed man joined the queue for food?A. SurprisedB. ExcitedC. NervousD. Hopeless.27. What the author's mother said shows that we_____.A. shouldn't judge a man by his appearanceB. shouldn't complain to othersC. should give others what they wantD. should accept everything we meet28. What does the underlined word anonymous”in Paragraph 4 probably mean?A. ImportantB. UnknownC. IndependentD. Excellent.29. From the last paragraph, we learn that_____.A. seeing is believingB. it's difficult to be kind to othersC. some rich people pretend to be poorD. we should help people based on their needs30.What would be the best title for the passage?A. My Mother's Influence on My GrowthB. The Importance of VolunteeringC. One of My Most Shameful ExperiencesD. A Simple Lesson in KindnessPassage 2Red Dog was special.He was not one of those dogs who ran shouting into the wind in groups. He just loved walking with me. Sometimes, on the narrow road, he walked so close that his bright red fur brushed against my leg.“Red Dog,"I'd say, “each morning when we meet for the first time, why do you always look so glad?”Of course, Red Dog never made reply with words. If he wanted to say something, he spoke with his eyes, or the bend in his tail. However, since we were friends, that was enough.At night, Red Dog slept on the front porch, lying there and dreaming dreams of long summer daysand endless walks. His night-world filled up with the moon and stars, hoot-owl hoots, and ghostly white fogs that crept silently into the fields.Between dreams, I think that Red Dog must have awakened, raised his head, and looked around. Maybe then he became a little lonely. And probably he wondered why I got to sleep inside, but he had to sleep on the porch.But, you see, Red Dog lived in a time when dogs such as he were not allowed to go inside their masters' homes. In those days, most people didn't even believe that dogs had feelings, though I did.Yes, during those days when we walked in the fields and woods, Red Dog and I helped one another see things in special ways. Weedy roadsides were like museums and the fields of corn and beans around us were like circuses with many rings.31. Why was Red Dog special?A. Because he loved walking with the author.B. Because he could swim.C. Because he loved playing with other dogs.D. Because he could play with kids.32. What would Red Dog do to express himself?A. Raise his head.B. Use his eyes or tail.C. Lie down outside.D. Speak a human language.33. How might Red Dog feel when he awakened at night?A. Curious and excitedB. Terrified and lonely.C. Happy and excitedD. Lonely and puzzled.34. How did most people think about dogs in the story?A. Dogs could speak with words.B. Dogs didn't have feelings.C. Dogs could enter masters' houses.D. Dogs were people's friends.35.What is the passage mainly about?A. Bedrooms and yards.B. Fields and woods.C. Red Dog and his master.D. Museums and circuses.Passage 3For the past 28 years, barber Liu Jianjun and his team have been volunteering in Changchun. He and his team, which has 3,700 volunteers, have given free haircuts to around 80,000 people. They also volunteer to help those in need, such as seniors who live alone, and send them daily necessities during festivals.The 53-year-old has been helping others since he opened his barber shop in 1994.“I lost my mother when I was 6, and my father left home soon after,” he said. “I was raised by my grandmother and was looked after by my neighbors."So when he opened his barber shop, he decided to repay some of the kindness he had been shown.Every day he arrives at his shop an hour before opening to give free haircuts to people over 70. He also spends his spare time providing door-to-door service for those who have difficulty walking.His team members visit seniors to help them buy daily needs, move heavy objects and make repairs. They also offer free haircuts to deliverymen and sanitation workers.“ Fortunately, I got a lot of support from my team, friends and relatives, "he said.“The team is like a big family and its members care for and help each other. I really want to thank all of them.”The youngest member of his team is 7.“Several students have joined, and they volunteer with their parents," he said.“ When we visit nursing homes, they sing and dance， bringing the elderly a lot of pleasure."In 2014, Liu joined the Communist Party of China on the recommendation of his community. “Being a Party member is not only about status, but also about a heavy responsibility and a lifelong commitment," he said.“I am determined to progress further along the road of voluntary service.”36. What does the underlined word “volunteering"most probably mean?A. Living aloneB. Building new housesC. Raising childrenD. Offering to do things37. Why does barber Liu give free haircuts?A.

Festivals have value.C. Service is expensive.D. Kindness has power.Passage 4The Sun is undoubtedly the powerhouse of the solar system. The energy released from the Sun is equivalent to about 36 octillion (10 的48次方)lumens, where a lumen is a measure of the total amount of visible light. All the energy radiates out from the center of our solar system in the form of light, heat, gamma rays and X-rays，and magnetic fields. But in fact, the Sun's energy is generated in its core and moves outward to its surface where it is released as electromagnetic radiation. The heat, light and radiation that come from the Sun are all examples of electromagnetic radiation.It takes about 8 minutes for the electromagnetic radiation from the Sun to travel 93 million miles to the Earth. When it arrives, some of that solar energy is blocked or absorbed by the atmosphere, but what isn't blocked is absorbed or reflected by the air, land, water， plants and other matter that covers the surface of our planet. When the molecules in matter gain energy, they move more， vibrating in place or even bouncing off one another.Unlike electromagnetic radiation, heat must be transferred or conducted through matter. Some types of matter, like water, are really good at holding onto.this energy. Clouds of water particles and gases in the atmosphere absorb some of this heat too. This absorption of heat helps the Earth stay warm. It's one reason our planet stays at a livable temperature and doesn't change radically from freezing cold to blazing hot every day.Energy from the Sun makes it possible for life to exist on the Earth. It is responsible for photosynthesis in plants,vision in animals, and many other natural processes, such as the movements of air and water that creates weather. Most plants need at least some sunlight to grow, so without light, there would be no plants, and without plants, there would not be oxygen for us to breathe. Infrared radiation from the Sun is responsible for heating the Earth's atmosphere and surface. Without energy from the Sun，the Earth would freeze. There would be no winds, ocean currents or clouds to transport water.What's more, every day the Sun shines on the Earth, driving many chemical and physical changes across the planet. Light, which travels fastest in the world, helps people on the Earth clearly see the world.41. How far is the Sun from the Earth?A.8 miles.B. 11 million miles.C.13 miles.D.93 million miles.42. Light travels from the Sun to the Earth in the form of _______.A. wavesB. brain wavesC.sound wavesD. electromagnetic radiation43. Which of the following travels fastest?A. Car.B. Light.C. Plane.D. Wind.44.What are lumens used to describe?A. Brightness.B. Darkness.C. Liquid.D. Speed.45. What role does light play in life according to the passage?A. To make people have a better life.B. To help people conduct experiments.C. To help improve the environment.D. To help people see the world.Section 2 (5%)Directions: There is l passage in this section. Read the passage and complete the outline below it ( No. 46 to No.50). You should write your answers briefly ( in no more than three words) on the Answer Sheet correspondingly.If you have something valuable in mind, a service to offer, or an idea to develop, then you should tell it to other people to widen its scope. Why not make full use of it?The fact is that, when you have enough vision, you may have the courage. And then you simply have to pursue it, however crazy it might seem to others.Remember that everything starts from small things: Rome was not built in a day. Scientists say that everything in the universe comes from a smaller unit than you can possibly assume. So it doesn't matter where you are at present, because small beginnings become great things at last.Think big by enlisting(争取)others: To think big, you need to see yourself as a small part of a greater whole. Enlist people who arebetter than you. If you're not the most organized person , don't just be unhappy about it. You should find someone who is better.Big thinkers know their personal limitations. Gather people who can do what you can't do around you to make sure your dream will come true.Think big by focusing on future regrets: There is an old saying,“We regret not the things we did do, but the things we didn't do.”You'll never know how far it could go unless you see how far you can take something.If you have big plans, just close your eyes. And strongly imagine how regretful you will be if you don't try or attempt properly.Feel that it is your human duty to think big: When something is probably of real service to mankind, then it is a human duty to think and act big.

It even spreads from one country to another. Some northern European countries have had “black snow” from pollutants that have traveled through the air from other countries and have fallen with the snow. So air pollution is really a global problem.Air pollution can kill babies, older people, and those who have respiratory(呼吸的) diseases. As found in cities, air pollution increases the risks of certain lung diseases.Air pollution can cause both airplane and car accidents because it cuts down visibility(能见度). There are other possible health dangers from air pollution that we don’t know much about. For example, scientists are trying to find out whether chemicals that reach us from the air may cause changes in our cells. These changes might cause babies to be born with serious birth defects（缺陷）. Scientists are trying to learn how all the many chemicals we are apt(易于的) to take into our bodies from air, water, food, and even medicines act together to affect our health and the way our bodies work. That is another reason why it is so important to begin to control pollution now instead of waiting until we learn all the answers.Air pollution costs us a lot of money. It corrodes(腐蚀) our buildings. It damages farm crops and forests. It has a destructive effect on our works of art. The cost of all this damage to ourgovernment is great. It would be much more worthwhile, both for us and for the government, to spend our tax dollars on air pollution control.36. Air pollution may lead to airplane accidents becauseA）it may cause pilots to be illB）engines may fail from the airborne dirtC）visibility is reducedD）it brings a lot of black snow37. Scientists are trying to find a link between pollution andA）intelligence levels B）birth problemsC）man’s behavior D）the nervous system38.

The author suggests that before air pollution becomes more serious,A）factories will be forced to stop operatingB）buildings should be protectedC）the earth will begin to grow colderD）more money should be spent to solve the problem40. We can conclude thatA）civilization may be ruined if pollution is not controlledB）pollution is more serious in Europe than it is in America C）most people do not know that pollution is a serious problemD）we should learn all the answers before we begin to control pollutionTask 2Directions: This task is the same as Task 1. The 5 questions or unfinished statements are numbered 41 through 45.Ask three people to look out of the same window at a busy street corner and tell you what they see. Chances are you will receive three different answers. Each person sees the same scene, but each perceives something different about it.Perceiving goes on in our minds. Of the three people who look out of the window, one may say that he sees a policeman giving a cyclist a ticket. Another may say that he sees a rush hour traffic jam at the intersection. The third may tell you that he sees a woman trying to cross the street with four children in town. For perception is the m ind’s interpretation of what the senses—in this case our eyes—tell us.Many psychologists today are working to try to determine just how a person experiences or perceives the world around him. Using a scientific approach, these psychologists set up experiments in which they can control all of the factors. By measuring and charting the results of many experiments, they are trying to find out what makes different people perceive totally different things about the same scene.41. According to the passage, when three people look out of the same windowA) they will give three different answersB) they will see the same scenesC) they cannot see clearlyD) they can only see the busy traffic42.
