Crowds lined the streets, cheering and waving. Fry rode west for 90 miles at full speed. He then passed a leather bag full of letters to another rider. Eventually a chain of riders carried the letters across nearly 2,000 miles of wilderness, and the Pony Express was born.Between California and the rest of the U.S. lay a vast wilderness. Mail service was slow and often delayed. As war among the states seemed likely, people wanted news more quickly.In December 1859, William Russell, owner of a transport company, decided to meet that need. He and partners William Waddell and Alexander Majors worked constantly for months. They selected a route from St. Joseph, Missouri, to Sacramento, California. Then they purchased 400 horses, hired workers and set up relay stations (导站)every 10 to 15 miles. Riders would change horses at these stations, and every 90 to 120 miles a new rider would take over.Shortly before Jonny Fry set out, another Pony Express rider set off from Sacramento for St. Joseph. These first deliveries reached their destinations in close to the 10 days Russell had promised.But the route was far from safe. On April 18, 1860, a rider’s horse stumbled (绊倒)and fell on the rider, killing him. Riders faced rivers, mountains, extreme temperatures-and very unfriendly natives.In May 1860,tensions between the settlers and Native Americans turned into fighting. Native Americans attacked several Pony Express stations, forcing some of them to close temporarily.Despite the risks, the Pony Express lost only one delivery during its one and a half years in operation. And when Abraham Lincoln was elected president, the Pony Express carried the news to California in only five days. It also spread news of the beginning of America's Civil War.The Pony Express service ended in October 1861 after a telegraph line across the U.S. was completed.Yet the riders' courage and accomplishments still hold a place in legend(传奇).56. The passage is mainly about the _____ of the Pony Express.A. functionB.influenceC. historyD. operation57. To _____, William Russell decided to set up the Pony Express.A. shorten the time of sending mailB. deliver mail farther and more safelyC. meet people's different needsD. help people keep in contact in war58. What might Russell have promised about the first deliveries?A. To make the destinations closer.B. To make the deliveries within 10 days.C. To ensure the deliveries with two riders.D. To complete the deliveries before the war.59. What can be learned from the passage?A. The Pony Express had an insignificant position in the development of mail service.B. The fighting between the settlers and Native Americans ended the Pony Express.C. The Pony Express became successful as a result of the dangers on the route.D. The Pony Express not only delivered mail but spread news as well.(B)Please Choose Cloud ServicesFinding the Cloud service can be difficult as there are so many available.Consumers need to consider and compare each service’s features, storage possibilities, free space and best price. You may be unsure, or you do not know where to begin. Trying every Cloud service would take a lot of time and work. But, the website might help.CloudDrop-box Google-Drive One-DriveBoxBest For LightweightUsersTeams AndCollaborationDevotedWindowsUsersEnterpriseSolutionsFree Storage Space2GB15GB15GB10GBCheapest PremiumOption1TB100GB100GB100GB One valuable feature is the protection of digital files, including photos, videos, documents, music and more. If the worst happens and your computer crashes, or gets lost or damaged, your files can still be found in the Cloud.Cloud services let you access your files from almost anywhere. No need to worry about a file stored on your computer when you are away from your desk. If you have an Internet connection, you can open your files from any computer, or from a phone, when they are stored using a Cloud service.Using a Cloud service makes sharing files easier. If you send documents to a group using emails, you may then wonder which version everyone is working with. When sharing files using a Cloud service, everyone will see the same document and the latest version.The first thing to consider is the amount of storage space you need. Check how much space you are currently using on your computer and mobile devices. If your computer or phone is filled with photos and you have little free space, you may want to move your photos to the Cloud. Some Cloud services are free. But, if you need a lot of space, you will probably need one that costs money.Even if everyone you have ever met is a Windows user, you still probably want a Cloud service that works with many platforms. You might become friends with anAndroid user or start a job with a company that computes on Apple!60. Which of the following is true according to the passage?A. Google-Drive users can obtain 100GB for free.B. Most Cloud services can send files to both the Cloud and the local computer.C. It's hard to transfer your file when you turn on the computer if it is stored in the Cloud.D. Never worry about finding your files in the Clouds if the computer system crashes.61. What will you have to do if you need more space to store more files in the Cloud?A. To use your own Cloud services.B. To share Cloud space with others.C. To spend money buying space.D. To buy the latest version of the service.62. How can consumers find the Cloud service that suits them best?A. By learning more information about the space occupied by files.B. By comparing Cloud’s function, storage, available space and prices.C. By sending files to a group of people via e-mail inquiring about the Cloud service.D.By making friends with Android users who use Apple computers.(C)Every day, Lucy Dong and her best friend Amy Zhu wake at 7 a.m. -- 7.10 a.m.If they are lucky---rush through their breakfast of steamed buns and noodles, and head off to what may be the best schooling system in the world.The 10-year-olds, who are natives of Shanghai, study in 35-minute bursts from around 8 a.m. to 4 p.m., with a small break for lunch -- and a class meeting --- sandwiched in the middle.Outside school hours, the girls' lives are lots of extra-curricular activities: English class, flute class, drumming class, handwriting class, calligraphy class, Taekwondo training, modelling lessons and choir practice.Shanghai was crowned --- for the second time …the champion of the Programme for International Student Assessment (PISA., which compares the maths, reading and science skills of some 510,000 secondary school students around the world).Some experts question the value of comparing cities and countries. Others point out that Shanghais relatively well-funded schools and well-paid teachers are not representative of the Chinese education system as a whole.Even so, the latest results are likely to see more and more educators flock east in search of the mega-city's magic formula.Professor Kong Lingshuai of the College of Education at Shanghai Normal University has studied the city'sPISA successes. He says that the secret is a mix of "traditional elements and modern elements". The former is related to the high expectations of "tiger" parents, and a belief in Chinese children from a young age that effort is crucial to gaining a good education. The "modern elements" include Shanghai's willingness to constantly adapt its curriculum and teaching practices; its focus on improving under-achieving schools by pairing them with those that excel; its openness to foreign ideas; and the introduction of performance-related pay.An obsession with training has also been the key, says Prof. Kong. As of last year, new teachers have to undergo a standardized, one-year training course before starting in the classroom. Once qualified, they are required to complete at least 240 hours' training in their first five years, including online learning, paper reading, essay writing and so on. Teachers are also encouraged to attend each other's classes to promote a culture of "idea sharing, exchanging and positive competition".Outsiders often dismiss China's education system as a pressure-cooker-style craze of exams that places too much emphasis on rote-learning and does little to stimulate creativity. But in Shanghai at least, that may be starting to change. Authorities are attempting to move away from testing that relies too heavily on memorizing facts and figures, and some schools are also giving students more time to play, rather than just study.63. The author mentions Lucy Dong and Amy Zhu in the first 3 paragraphs to ________.A. praise the industriousness of these two girlsB. give readers the whole picture of Chinese educationC. illustrate what education in Shanghai looks likeD. criticize the burden the education brings on them64. Why do some experts challenge the result that Shanghai ranked 1st in PISA test?A. Because the value of PISA, which only tests 510,000 students globally, is cast doubt on.B.Because Shanghai has drawn more attention and resources from the central government.C. Because only maths, reading and science skills are compared in PISA test, which is not enough.D. Because Shanghai has a better system of financial support for schools as well as for teachers.65. Which of the following is closest in meaning to "dismiss"in the last paragraph?A. To consider something inferior.B. To stop thinking about something.C. To give the credit for something.D. To claim the features of something.66. Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?A. Strict parents contribute little to the academic success of their children.B. Students have more free time to spend on their interest across China.C. Many education researchers are getting to Shanghai to study the phenomenon.D. Under-achieving schools are usually substituted by those academically superior schools.(D)A. Holidays are when my family gathers and has a good time together,B. School education has civilized me with a mind for peace and calm.C. My parents raised me with a lot of beliefs that have had an effect on who I am today.D. Summer is the time when we always organize some special events as a big family.E. However, I know that it is important to follow the golden rule and to treat others with dignity and respect.F. We take care of each other and try to treat others with respect.What Makes Me "Me"?My culture comes from where I am from and where I was raised. I am an American.I was born and raised in Alaska. My ethnic background is German, English, and Scottish. Culture is all about family. It is a family's belief systems, the cultural traditions that are celebrated, and the special holidays and events that occur in the year._____67_____These are the beliefs that don't just belong to my culture, but they come straight from the values of my family. I believe that women are more intelligent than men because my mother is a strong woman. I was raised to believe that through hard work I could become successful and have a good life. I strive to do this every day and to be good at my life and my jobs. I'm not really religious. _____ 68_____ I believe that if you are a good person to others you will be rewarded for it in many ways.There are a lot of cultural traditions that my family has. Some are from my cultural background and some are from the place where I was raised. I raise my son to have manners and to be well behaved. I raise him to know that hard work is important and that he is expected to put his best effort into things._____69_____We gather every summer in Haines so that all the cousins can grow up together. Birthdays were always important events while growing up. My mom was excited to celebrate every holiday. Trick or treating on Halloween, hiding baskets on Easter, passing out cards to classmates on Valentine's Day, wearing green on St. Patrick's Day, and of course loads of presents under the tree on Christmas morning. My parents always made holidays a big deal so now my son also gets to be excited for them every year.My culture makes me a person that celebrates life. My family has a lot of good friends and we are usually a good part of the community. ______70____ We like to go outdoors and have adventures. My belief systems, cultural traditions, and special events have made me a happy person who is fun to be around and who can have a positive impact on others.Keys31-35 JAFKE36-40 GCBHICloze41-45 ACDCB46-50 ADBDA 51-55 ACBDAReadingA:56-59 CABD B:60-62 DCB C:63-66 CDAC D:67-70 CEAF。

He had lost his parents and son,and had heard nothing from his wife. During the interview, a call came in. He wiped away his tears and rushed off to handle another emergency.He is Zhao haiqing, a village official in Chenjiaba, Beichuan county. This month he wasselected as one of Chinese youth’s role models in . Nine other people, including a mailwo man, a rocket expert and a disabled athlete, also received the honor as the top 10 outstanding Chinese Youth of the Year.Zhao, 36, narrowly escaped death in the quake after running out of the government building, which crashed right behind him. As soon as he woke up from shock, he led other survivors(幸存者)to rescue those trapped under broken buildings.“We dared not waste a single minute. We dug with shovels(铲子)and our hands,” Zhao recalled. Sixty-seven people were saved and over 2,100 injured were sent to hospitals.For the next two days, Chenjiaba remained disconnected from the rest of the world and was cut off from help. Zhao decided to move the villagers to safer places. People walked away from their broken homeland in rain, while rocks rolled from the hills. But none of them got injured.It was that day in Jiangyou City that his mobile phone reconnected and he learned that his parents and son were killed.A huge workload during the quake relief(救济)finally laid Zhao down. He had heart surgery (手术)in Chengdu in September. But he returned to his fellow villagers soon after.“I will keep on my post here.

The writer has ____opinion of Zhao.A. a highB. a lowC. noD. a badBHealth experts have warned for many years that cigarette smoking can lead to heart disease, cancer and other medical problems. And officials say diseases caused directly by smoking kill at least three hundred and twenty thousand Americans each year. But smokers still find it rather difficult to stop. The tobacco industry says 40 million Americans continue to smoke cigarette. The American Cancer Society wants to change this. Every year the group organizes a national Non-smoking Day in order to get people to give up cigarette.On the Non-smoking Day the organization is asking all smokers to stop smoking at least for 24 hours. The Cancer Society hopes this will lead many people to give up smoking completely. On that day the Cancer Society officers will give telephone call advice on how to stop smoking. Some others also can call a special telephone to hear recorder messages by doctors. Some factories will offer their workers candy or chewing gum(口香糖)to help them to keep from smoking. Some companies are offering special presents and low prizes to people who sign an agreement to stop smoking. And Americans who don’t smoke are being asked to help just one person who is smoking during the 24—hour campaign(战役)35._____Americans die from smoking each year.A.

There are shanzhai phones called “Nakia”, “Anycoll”, and “HiPshone”. There are shanzhai stars who dress and act like stars such as Ja y Chou. There are shanzhai versions of movies, songs and TV programs. Also, young people see shanzhai as a means of expressing their creativity.In English, shanzhai can be translated into “copycat”.Li Xinlian, director of the Jinghui Psychology Consulting Center in Beijing, said that people need to release(释放), especially after bad events, like this year’s snowstorm, earthquake and financial crisis. “Copycat makes fun of authorities, and also at ourselves. It provides release,” said Li, explaining the c oncept’s current popularity.Lu Cong, a senior at Shenyang Normal University, says she enjoys watching the popular amateur(业余)version of Dream of the Red Mansion, a video made by a college student. The acting is particularly funny because the people don’t know how to perform, the 19-year-old said, “College students tend to seek light-hearted and humorous content on the Internet.

chest shaking as she tried not to cry but failed.For all of my twenty-four years,my mom had been supportive.Strength and protection had always flowed from her to me.Now I knew it would have to flow the other way.Mom didn’t stay down for long.After the shock of breast-cancer,she armed herself with a notebook and a pen and a thousand questions for the doctors.She took notes on white blood cell counts and medications(药物)with long names as though she were studying for entrance exams into medical school.The not-knowing is the worst.”she said.The operation was successful.The chemo(化疗)was the harder part.I went with Mom to every chemo treatment.She rarely complained,though her hair was gone and her toenails and fingernails fell out one by one.She joked that she could save money on nail polish and put it toward the doctor bills,even though she never wore nail polish.”Cancer can take my hair,my nails,my health,my very life.But it can’t take my smile.”Mom said.Mom learned to share her fears with me,and it formed an even deeper bond between us.Yet I am certain there were fears she didn’t share because she was still protecting me-worries she only shared with Dad.Even in the darkest hours,she would just joke about the cancer.Mom always said,”When you look your greatest fear in the eye and laugh at it,you take away some of its power.”Mom was one of the lucky ones.She did beat her

limitations live independently in their own homes.The Robot Activity Support System,or RAS,uses sensors installed in a WSU smart home to determine where its residents are,what they are doing and when they need assistance with dailyactivities.It navigates(定位)through rooms and around obstacles to find people on its own, provides video instructions on how to do simple tasks and can even lead its owner to objects like their medication or a snack in the kitchen.“RAS combines the convenience of a mobile robot with the activity detection technology of a WSU smart home to provide assistance in the moment,as the need for help is detected,”said Bryan Minor,a postdoctoral researcher in the WSU School of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science.Currently,an estimated50percent of adults over the age of85need assistance with every day activities such as preparing meals and taking medication and the annual cost for this assistance in the US is nearly$2trillion.With the number of adults over85expected to triple by2050, researchers hope that technologies like RAS and the WSU smart home will relieve some of the financial strain on the healthcare system by making it easier for older adults to live alone.RAS is the first robot that researchers have tried to incorporate into their smart home environment.They recently published a study in the journal Cognitive Systems Research that demonstrates how RAS could make life easier for older adults struggling to live independently.“While we are still in an early stage of development,our initial results with RAS have been promising,”Minor said.“The next step in the research will be to test RAS’performance with a group of older adults to get a better idea of what prompts,video reminders and other preferences they have regarding the robot.”8.How does RAS serve elderly people?A.Through sensors.B.Through objects.C.Through a mobile robot.D.Through their daily activities.9.What can we know about RAS?A.It is the first robot used in daily life.B.Its function remains to be tested.C.It can locate people and do any task.D.It can cook for owners on its own.10.What’s Minor’s attitude toward the future of RAS?A.Doubtful.B.Negative.C.Optimistic.D.Uncertain.11.What can be a suitable title for the text?A.Elderly people leave the nursing home.B.Smart Home Tests first elder-Care robot.C.RAS,the first robot to make home smart.D.Older adults have benefited from RAS.DWhat kind of amusing activities will you participate in during your life?Will you be spending your free time doing safe sports with little danger or will you always be one of the first people to try the next popular extreme activity?Scientists have been interested in finding out why some people seem to prefer dangerous activities.Although there are exceptions,researchers have found that in most cases men are less cautious than women.Men often try to impress women by proving that they are courageous andfearless,and they are more likely to take risks when women are watching them or when they are competing against other men.Research also shows that as people get older they usually behave more responsibly and avoid taking unnecessary risks.In addition,when people are in stable relationships,they seem to be less attracted to daring activities.Some people seem to be more daring than others,but there are many different types of risks and some people take one type of risk,but not another.Psychologists have identified a number of categories of risk.These include financial risks,risks related to health and safety,amusing risks and social risks.Psychologists discover that some people will take risks in one area,but not in another.Just if a person enjoys bungee(蹦极)jumping,it doesn’t mean he or she will take chances when investing(投资)money or that he will tell a joke to a group of strangers.Interestingly,research shows that women take more social risks than men.They are more likely to make career changes as they get older and to express unpopular opinions in business meetings.Yet,at the end of the day,the likelihood of particular people taking a risk depends on their personalities.In general,optimistic people are more likely to take risks because they focus on the possible positive outcomes of their actions.On the other hand,those with opposite personality are much more likely to avoid taking a chance.12.Why do men try to prove they are brave according to the research?A.To attract people’s attention.B.To take on more responsibility.C.To make favorable impressions on people.D.To develop stable relationships with others.13.What does the example of bungee jumping indicate?A.People take one type of risk but not another.B.There are more than one type of risk.C.Bungee jumping is dangerous but popular.D.Some people are more courageous than others.14.What have researchers discovered about women?A.They are willing to take social risks.B.They are always changing Jobs.C.They are good at doing business.D.They are usually more conservative than men.15.What mainly determine whether people take risks possibly?A.Their personalities.B.Their financial conditions.C.Their social relationships.D.Their expectations of outcomes.第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5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,选项中有两项为多余选项。

While most children know how to spend money, only a few know the virtues (美德) of saving it. April is Financial Youth Literacy Month, which means it is as good a time as any to start talking to kids about money.Lori Mackey, the “Money Mama” and author of MoneyMamaandtheThreeLittlePigs which is a read-aloud book that teaches the basics of sound money management, visited “Good Morning America” to explain how to teach kids about saving and spend ing. Mackey sa id it’s never too early to start talking to kids about money. “It’s never too late, but if you can start early, you can teach them to give, invest, spend and save wisely, and they learn the habits of wealth,” she said. She advised that all children have some pocket money so they can understand how money works. “They make better choices if they are spending their money, and don’t become materialistic (物质主义的),” Mackey said. “If they want a toy, they have to spend their money. They don’t want to waste their s.” Parents can have children earn money to pay for unnecessary expenses. “Whatever you are spending on your children for things they don’t actually need, allow them to earn it. In this way, it’s not costing you any money. You’re just transferring it,” Mackey said. Mackey also suggested that parents should follow the following ways when talking to their kids about the value of money.13. What will the next paragraph most probably be about?A. The ways of how to talk to kids about the value of money.B. The ways of how to teach kids to make money themselves.C. The ways of how to teach kids to spend money properly.D.
