I was so embarrassed that I could not look at anyone as I walked by them on my way to school after that incident happened, feeling like it was my fault entirely for not walking fast enough to get out of the way of this person who was honking his horn at us for taking up part of "his" road space in what he considered an unsafe manner (not walking in the crosswalk).

We were on the bus then. I was crying, and some people on the bus were turning around to look at me. I remember that I could not bear the thought of never hearing again the radio program for school children to which I listened every morning.I do not remember myself crying for this reason again. In fact, I think I cried very little when I was saying goodbye to my friends and relatives. When we were leaving I thought about all the places I was going to see — the strange and magical places I had known only from books and pictures. The country I was leaving and never to come back was hardly in my head then.The four years that followed taught me the importance of optimism, but the idea did not come to me at once. For the first two years in New York I was really lost — having to study in three schools as a result of family moves. I did not quite know what I was or what I should be. Mother remarried, and things became even more complex for me. Some time passed before my stepfather and I got used to each other. I was often sad, and saw no end to “the hard times.”My responsibilities in the family increased a lot since I knew English better than everyone else at home. I wrote letters, filled out forms, translated at interviews withImmigration officers, took my grandparents to the doctor and translated there, and even discussed telephone bills with company representatives.From my experiences I have learned one important rule: Almost all common troubles go away at last! Something good is certain to happen in the end when you do not give up, and just wait a little! I believe that my life will turn out all right, even though it will not be that easy.4.How did the author get to know America?A.From her relativesB.From her motherC.From books and picturesD.From radio programs5.Upon leaving for America the author felt ________.A.confused B.excited C.worried D.amazed 6.For the first two years in New York, the author ________.A.often lost her wayB.did not think about her futureC.studied in three different schoolsD.got on well with her stepfather7.What is the author’s attitude toward life?A.Pessimistic.B.Indifferent.C.Positive.D.Ambiguous.Languages have been coming and going for thousands of years, but in recent times there has been less coming and a lot more going. When the world was still populated byhunter-gatherers, small, tightly knit(联系) groups developed their own patterns of speech independent of each other. Some language experts believe that 10,000 years ago, when the world had just five to ten million people, they spoke perhaps 12,000 languages between them.Soon afterwards, many of those people started settling down to become farmers, and their languages too became more settled and fewer in number. In recent centuries, trade, industrialization, the development of the nation-state and the spread of universal compulsory education, especially globalisation and better communications in the past few decades, all have caused many languages to disappear, and dominant languages such as English, Spanish and Chinese are increasingly taking over.At present, the world has about 6,800 languages. The distribution of these languages is hugely uneven. The general rule is that mild zones have relatively few languages. Often spoken by many people while hot, wet zones have lots, often spoken by small numbers. Europe has only around 200 Languages: the Americas about 1,000, Africa 2,400; and Asia and the Pacific perhaps 3,200, of which Papua New Guinea alone accounts for well over 800. The median number(中位数) of speakers is a mere 6,000, which means that half the worlds languages are spoken by fewer people than that.Already well over 400 of the total of 6,800 languages are close to extinction(消亡), with only a few elderly speakers left. Pick, at random, Busuu in Cameroon (eight remaining speakers), Chiapaneco in Mexico(150).

Actually, the past decades has seen more and more forests disappearing and the globe becoming increasingly warm. People now realize that this unhealthy situation must be changed, and that we must be able to develop in sustainable ways. That means growth with low carbon or development of sustainable products. In other words,we should keep the earth healthy while using its supply of natural resources.Today, sustainable development is a proper trend in many countries. According to a recent study, the global market for low-carbon energy will become three times bigger over the next decades. China, for example, has set its mind on leading that market, hoping to seize chances in the new round of the global energy revolution. It is now trying hard to make full use of wind and solar energy, and is spending a huge amount of money making electric cars and high-speed trains. In addition, we are also seeing great growth in the global markets for sustainable products such as palm oil(棕榈油), which is produced without cutting down valuable rainforest. In recent years the markets for sustainable products have grown by more than 50%.Governments can fully develop the potential of these new markets. First, they can set high targets for reducing carbon emissions(排放) and targets for saving and reusing energy. Besides, stronger arrangement of public resources like forests can also help to speed up the development. Finally, governments can avoid the huge public expenses that are taking us in the wrong direction, and redirecting some of those expenses can accelerate the change from the traditional model to a sustainable one.The major challenge of this century is to find ways to meet the needs of growing population within the limits of this single planet. That is no small task, but it offers abundant new chances for sustainable product industries.12.The traditional business model is harmful because of all the following EXCEPTthat .A.It makes the world warmerB.it consumes natural resourcesC.it brings severe damage to forestsD.it makes growth hard to continue13.What can we infer from Paragraph 2?A.China lacks wind and solar energyB.China is the leader of the low-carbon marketC.High-speed trains are a low-carbon developmentD.Palm oil is made at the cost of valuable forests14.To full develop the low-carbon markets, government can .A.cut public expensesB.forbid carbon emissionC.develop public resourcesD.encourage energy conservation15.What is the main purpose of the passage?A.To introduce a new business modelB.To compare two business modelsC.To predict a change of the global marketD.To advocate sustainable development二、七选五From red apples and yellow lemons to blueberries and green melons, fruit comes in many different colors. ____16____According to scientists, fruit colors actually come from their different pigments, such as red or yellow carotenoid and blue or purple anthocyanin. These pigments appear in different amounts, depending on the fruit’s environment. This causes the fruit to turn a certain color.____17____ They found that red fruit tends to grow in cooler places. Instead of just growing in one place, you can find them growing in many places around the world. Blue and purple fruit mostly grows in warm places. ____18____ The scientists also found that the closer the fruit is to the equator,the darker its color will be.____19____ Animals eat fruit and drop the seeds in other places later. This helps the fruit spread and grow in different places. However, animals see colors in a different way. Therefore, in order to attract animals, some fruit develops colors that are easy for animals to see. For example, birds can see red more easily than humans can. ____20____ The lemurs of Madagascar are red-green color blind. Many yellow fruit can be found in their habitats, as they can easily see this color.A.So there tends to be more red fruit in areas where birds live.B.Why do different kinds of fruit have so many colors?C.Animals have better sight than an ordinary person.D.These fruits tend to grow a lot it just one specific area.E.However, a darker color doesn’t mean a better kind of fruit.F.Animals have also had an impact on the evolution of fruit colors.G.Scientists studied more than 280 different fruit colors to find out how environment affects fruit colors.三、完形填空In 1665, Johannes Vermeer dabbed (轻涂) the last drop of paint onto a canvas in his Dutch studio, completing his masterpiece “Girl With a Pearl Earring.”On an April day 357 years later, Ms. Strong slowly stopped her bike, paused her fitness app, and watched as the snaking line of her ____21____ route drew the shape of Vermeer’s ____22____ over the streets of Brooklyn.Ms. Strong ____23____ what has come to be known as “GPS art”— a ____24____ that uses the mapping capabilities (地图绘画功能) of modern phone apps to create ____25____ drawings using a route across the streets.

AWhy go to Madrid?There may be a slight chill (寒冷) in the air, with temperatures staying around 15℃in March, but Spain's handsome capital is slowly starting to warm up. Even more attractive are the cultural events.A new exhibition on the living and working spaces of Spain's greatest artist, Picasso, has just opened in the studio at the Fundación Mapfre at Paseo de Recoletos 23. It runs until 11 May with rarely seen pieces borrowed from his family.Later this summer, the 400th anniversary of the death of the Renaissance (文艺复兴) painter EI Greco will be marked with an exciting exhibition at the Museo del Prado at Paseo del Prado from 24 June to 5 October.How to go?The widest range of fights is ofered by EasyJet - from Bristo, Edinburgh, Gatwick, Liverpool and Luton. British Airways and its sister arline Iberia combine fores from Heathrow and London City. Ryanair flies from Manchester and Stansted; Air Europa flies from Gatwick.Barajas airport is 13km north-east of the city centre and is served by frequent trains on Metro line 8, but the shortest underground journey is a bit complex with at least one change at Nuevos Miniterios station and takes about 30 minutes. The fare to any station in the city entre is €4.50. The airport express bus runs every 15 to 35 minutes around the clock; €5 one way. It takes 40 minutes to reach the city centre. A taxi takes half the time. A flat rate of €30 covers most of central Madrid.1. When will the exhibition about Picasso close?A. On 23 March.B. On 11 May.C. On 24 June.D. On 5 October.2.

Take a taxi.B. Take a city bus.C. Take Metro line 8.D. Take the airport express bus.BMy school appeared on the news last week because we had made an important change in our local area. Our class had planted a large garden in what was once only a vacant lot. It was a lot of work but it was all worth it. 1 got blisters (水泡) from digging, and we all got insect bites, too.I learned a lot about gardening and collaboration (合作), and then I learned about the media. Our teacher telephoned the TV station and informed them of what we had accomplished. She spoke with the producer. The producer checked with the directors, but they said there were plenty of stories similar to ours. They wanted to know what was special about our particular garden, since many schools plant them.The teacher explained that, after going on the Internet to learn about the prairie (大草原), we had made a prairie garden. We had gone to a prairie and gotten seeds from the plants, and then we planted them. We did not water the garden, but we did weed it We decided to let nature water it with rain, since that was how prairies grew in the past. We sent a picture of the garden to the news station. In the picture, the grass was so high that it stood taller than the fourth grade students.As a result, the producer sent a reporter to our school. He interviewed the headmaster and asked him many questions about the garden. After that, they interviewed us, and we explained to them what we had learned through this project.That night, we watched the news, and there we were. The news reporter told our story. It was only two minutes long, but it was us. We were famous. All that work, all those blisters, it was worth it. We knew that when we saw the garden every day, but now we knew that the whole city thought so, too.4. What seemed to be the TV directors' initial reaction to the garden?A. They were excited.B. They were surprised.C. They were worried.D. They were uninterested.5. What is special about the garden?A. Weeds were allowed to spread naturally.B. The grass grew faster than common grass.C. The seeds came from the plants of a prairie.D. Underground water was used for the plants.6. What does the underlined word“that" refer to in the last paragraph?A. We got blisters on our hands.B. Our hard work was worthwhile.C. The garden would be famous.D. The project would be finished.7. How did the author feel about the project?A. Annoyed.B. Curious.C. Proud.D. Regretful.CHeads up! Across the country, sports injuries are a safety concern for young athletes. Now, the American Medical Association (AMA) has a new set of guidelines aimed at protecting players from the danger of concussions - serious injuries caused by a blow to the head.“By raising awareness of the serious risks associated with concussions and ensuring that the appropriate guidelines are in place, we can reduce the number of young athletes who may return to the game too soon, which can. put their health at further risk," said AMA Board Member Jack Resneck Jr, M.D., in a statement.The policy recommends that young athletes who may have a concussion be taken off the field as soon as possible. Then, they are only to return to their sport with a doctor's written approval. The policy also sets age-specific rules for health care professionals and athletic organizations in evaluating and caring for concussions.According to the Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), a concussion is a type oftraumatic (创伤) brain injury caused by a bump, blow, or jolt to the head or hit to the body that causes the head and brain to move rapidly back and forth. This type of movement can cause the brain to bounce around or twist inside the skull (颅骨). It can damage brain cells and create chemical changes in the brain.The CDC says that between 1.6 million and 3.8 million traumatic brain injuries caused by sports and recreation-related activities occur in the U.S. every year. A study from the Center for Injury Research and Policy showed that as many as 40% of high school athletes return to playing before they should. The AMA'S new guidelines should help to bring those numbers down.8. Why does the AMA set the new guidelines?A. To raise safety standards of sports.B. To protect athletes from concussions.C. To set rules for health care evaluation.D. To help players return to the game quickly.9. What should young athletes who may have a concussion do?A. Avoid using the head.B. Leave the field forever.C. Get treatment in time.D. Switch to another sport.10. What is paragraph 4 mainly about?A. What a concussion is.B. What causes damage to brain cells.C. How the CDC works.D. How a concussion can be prevented.11. Which of the following is the best title for the text?A. Rules for Safer PlayB. Sports Injuries in the USC. Advice to AthletesD. New Policies for DoctorsDOrganic food is very popular. It is also expensive. Some organic food costs twice as much as non-organic food, but new parents and pet owners are willing to pay up to 200% more for organic food. However, there are people who think it is a waste of money.There is one main difference between organic and non-organic food. Organic farms do not use agricultural chemicals, such as pesticides (杀虫剂). In many countries organic foods have special labels. These guarantee that the products are natural.Some people think organic means locally grown. Originally this was true. Over time organic farming became more difficult. The demand for organic food grew larger than the supply. Small companies had to sell out to large companies. There weren't enough organic ingredients (原料), such as grain and cattle. This made it difficult for many organic companies to stay in business. Today, many large companies have an organic line of products.Is organic food more nutritious? This is part of the debate. Many farmers and consumers believe it is. They think agricultural chemicals cause health problems such as cancer. Many health professionals disagree. Few studies prove that organic foods prevent health problems. Health specialists worry more about bacteria (病毒), such as E.coli and salmonella. These can get into contact with organic and non- organic food. Doctors recommend washing produce very carefully. Handling meat carefully is important too.Most people agree that naturally grown food tastes better. Is tastier food worth the extra money? This is a matter of opinion. Whether it is healthier or not may require more research. However, organic consumers argue it is better to be safe than sorry.12. What is probably the major concern of organic food consumers?A. Price.B. Safety.C. Freshness.D. Variety.13. What is the doctors' suggestion?A. Grow your own food.B. Reduce the use of pesticides.C. Make sure the food is clean.D. Buy large companies' products.14. Which of the following do most people agree on organic food?A. It tastes better.B. It is easier to grow.C. It contains more fat.D. It is more nutritious.15. Where does this text probably come from?A. A recipe book.B. A chemistry paper.C. A medical report.D. A health magazine.第二节(共5小题:每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

AGood evening everyone!I hope to pick your brain on potential advertising strategies and gaining new customers for my boyfriend’s car repair shop.He has been in business for3years and is fairly successful,but we are trying to increase the number of chargeable hours.While he was doing repair work,I took over all the administrative duties.The first thing on my to-do list was to get him on social media.I was floored that he had no social media presence,which is not surprising considering he is old school.Now,he has a business Facebook page and an Instagram account,although it may not be worth much yet.We are working on a weekly“feature”for both platforms in order to create some interest.He doesn’t want to do coupons(优惠券)or discounts or anything like that,and I understand why.His labor rate is already significantly lower than anyone else in the area,and his overall costs are lower as well.This is where I am a bit lost——how can we effectively attract more customers without a hook?My guess would be focusing on the value,but I’m not sure how well that will work out.We are considering sending postcards as well since he already cooperates with a few local shops who send their large jobs to him and such.However,I am unsure about Facebook marketing, but definitely open.1.What was scheduled first to promote business?A.Working out a weekly feature.B.Increasing chargeable hours. C.Establishing his presence online.D.Visiting his old school.2.How might they attract new clients?A.By raising labor rates.B.By offering discounts and coupons.C.By cutting overall costs.D.By highlighting the value of services. 3.What is the purpose of the text?A.To offer information.B.To seek advice.C.To show advantages.D.To find cooperation.BThere was no way to escape when they spotted a polar bear.Verena Mohaupt and a handful of colleagues were trapped on a floating sea ice while the bear gazed at them,smelling the air,a dangerous sign.“That’s when everything kicks in,”Mohaupt says,“and you focus on what’s important.”As a colleague fired into the sky as a warning shot,Mohaupt radioed their research ship a few kilometres away,whose helicopter luckily arrived quickly and Mohaupt didn’t have to use the gun that was hanging over her shoulder.Keeping a lookout for bears was a regular duty for Mohaupt,the logistics coordinator(后勤协调员)for a year-long mission known as the MOSAiC——the largest Arctic research exploration in history.The project,consisting of roughly300scientists,led by scientist MarkusRex,has collected massive measurements that will help better forecast how warming will transform the globe in the coming decades.For months,the exploration operated in constant darkness while polar bears wandered nearby,storms rocked the ship and the ice shifted and cracked.Then,when the Sun returned,the ice began to melt,creating a life-threatening risk and a nightmare for researchers who needed to keep their instruments from sinking.Tasked with the security of the mission,Mohaupt designed an extensive training course for the participants in which they learnt how to avoid the danger,like storm-rocking and ice-cracking. They jumped into a Norwegian channel in their survival suits and climbed out of the freezing waters using only their ice picks.They learnt how to escape from a crashed helicopter.And they discussed the psychological effects of being far from home.Mohaupt brought knitting equipment, yoga mats and a violin for their men tal health——although having been prepared for the isolation.Mohaupt didn’t expect a career in polar regions,but says she has always been drawn to the north.“She was there to make sure that we were protected,”says Markus Rex,“Mohaupt iscertainly the champion in the field.”4.Why does the author mention a polar bear in the beginning?A.To show the threat of bears.B.To tell an interesting story.C.To introduce Mohaupt’s job.D.To describe the polar scenery.5.What can we know from paragraph3?A.The working conditions were tough.B.Mohaupt helped to collect massive data. C.The exploration went on in total darkness.D.Mohaupt’s duty was to protect polar bears. 6.Which of the following best describes Mohaupt?A.Ambitious and brave.B.Passionate and dependent. C.Considerate and modest.D.Professional and responsible.7.What is a suitable title for the text?A.A Potential Danger in the Exploration.B.A Guardian Angel of Polar Researchers. C.A Great Scientific Exploration in History.D.A Great Female Scientist in Polar Research.CChances are you’ve heard the phrase“like a moth to a flame”——and probably seen it in action at a nighttime fire or barbecue,too.It turns out,however,this age-old saying may not be quite right.Rather than being attracted to light,moths’tendency to fly toward brightness is a behavioral response to help them determine which way is up,suggests a new study published in the journal Nature Communications.To avoid falling down to the ground,insects need to know which way is up,says study coauthor Yash Sondhi,a National Geographic Explorer.Without systems to maintain spatial(空间的)orientation,the brightness of the sky,even at night,has always been a strong indicator of “up”——until artificial lights came along.If they mess that up,they start plummeting.Sondhi and a team of researchers set up experiments to investigate how different lights influence flight behavior.First,the researchers suspended a light bulb from a rope between two trees——resembling a typical downward-pointing light——and in a separate test,they turned the light upward by mounting it on a tripod(三脚架).In both cases,insects leaned their winged backs to the bulb.But when the light was pointed up,the insects often bumped to the ground.What if the light is spread over a wide area?The researchers stretched a large white sheetacross the tree and projected a UV light on it.If the insects were truly“attracted”to the light,they should fly up toward it.Instead,the insects cruised(巡航)straight through this illuminated corridor,flying how they would during the day.The team then placed the sheet on the ground and shined the light on it,which is when something truly odd happened:All these moths flying over it turned upside down and crashed out of the sky.Directionality of light is a huge factor in the pattern we have seen,not just brightness or color.“Artificial lights may cause a mismatch between the insect’s sense of which way is up and true direction of gravity,which spells trouble for insects population.”says Sondhi.8.What can be inferred about“like a moth to a flame”in the new study?A.A moth is generally attracted by a flame.B.Artificial lights are valuable for a moth. C.Brightness indicates up for a moth.D.A moth has a sense of direction. 9.What does the underlined word“plummeting”in paragraph2mean?A.Crashing.B.Speeding.C.Freezing.D.Suspending. 10.What lights influence insects most in the experiments?A.UV lights on the tree.B.Upward-pointing lights. C.Downward-pointing lights.D.Lights of different colors.11.What is Sondhi’s attitude toward artificial lights?A.Concerned.B.Dismissive.C.Doubtful.D.Neutral.DWould you rather watch a new movie,or an old favorite?Would you rather try a dish you’ve never had at a restaurant,or stick with something you know you’ll like?Researchers studying the “mere exposure effect”have found that we often prefer the familiar over the novel.People didn’t need to experience a reward or positive outcome while around the object—simply being exposed to the object would be enough to make people like it.To test this, social psychologist Robert Zajonc had participants read words in a foreign language out loud and varied how often participants read each word(up to25repetitions).Next,after reading the words, participants were asked to guess at the meaning of each word by filling out a rating scale (indicating how positive or negative they thought the meaning of the word was).He found that participants liked words that they had said more often,while words thatparticipants hadn’t read at all were rated more negatively,and words that had been read25times were rated highest.Just the me re exposure to the word was enough to make participant s like it more.One place where the me re exposure effect occurs is in advertising.It explains why seeing the same advertisement multiple times could be more convincing than just seeing it once.Of course, there’s a caution here:the me re exposure effect doesn’t happen for things we initially dislike. Researchers have found that our liking for a variety of things(including pictures,sounds,foods, and smells)can be increased with repeated exposure,suggesting that the mere exposure effect isn’t limited to just one of our senses.Additionally,researchers have found that the me re exposure effect occurs in studies with human research participants as well as in studies with non-human animals.Another key finding from this analysis was that participants eventually started to like object s less after many repeated exposures.In other words,a smaller number of repeated exposures will make you like something more——but,if the repeated exposures continue,you could eventually get tired of it.12.What is the key factor in Robert Zajonc’s test?A.Frequency.B.Preference.C.Originality.D.Achievement. 13.Which of the following is an example of mere-exposure effect?A.We favor an advertisement at the first sight.B.A student joined in the club because of love.C.We are more convinced of what we met before.D.A student read as many English words as possible.14.What can we learn about“mere exposure effect”according to paragraph4?A.It is the result of advertising.B.It has nothing to do with animals.C.It is true of what we dislike at first.D.It can be applied to multiple senses. 15.What is the text mainly about?A.More love because of more exposures.B.The study on mere exposure effect. C.Better results from the earlier exposures.D.The application of mere exposure effect.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。

A Genghis Khan
Genghis Khan, the great Mongol conqueror, was born in about 1162. His father, a petty Mongol chieftain, named the boy Temujin, after a defeated rival chieftain, and for some years the surviving members of the family lived in constant danger and poverty. This was just the beginning, Temujin's situation was to become a lot worse before it got better. When he was a young man, he was captured in a attack by a rival tribe. To prevent his escaping, a wooden collar was placed around his neck. From then on, he was kept as a prisoner in a primitive, barren country, There Temujin rose to become the most powerful man in the world. His rise started when he managed to escape from his captors. He then allied himself with Toghril, a friend of his father's, and chieftain of one of the related tribes living in the area. There followed many years of cruel warfare among these various Mongol tribes, in the course of which Temujin gradually fought his way to the top. The tribesmen of Mongolia had long been known as skilled horsemen and fierce warriors. Throughout history, they had made unexpected attacks into northern China. However, before the rise of Temujin, the various tribes had always spent most of their energy in fighting each other. By a combination of military power, diplomacy, ruthlessness and organizational ability, Temujin managed to join all of these tribes together under his leadership, and in 1206 a meeting of the Monglo chieftains
