The paintings were highly realistic. Some even showed movement.The artwork, more than a thousand drawings, is considered the oldest group of human cave drawings which have ever been discovered. They were preserved because the cave was sealed—closed off—for more or less 23,000 years.Fast forward to December 18, 1994, a group of French cave scientists were exploring caves in southern France. Jean-Marie Chauvet, who led the group then, describes the process of discovering the cave pain tings. “At that time I was in the front, Eliette just walked behind me, Christian behind. Eliette said she saw two marks made with red ochre and she said, ‘They came here.’ And at this very moment everything began. The drawings and everything linked to the parietal art (壁画). That is where it started.”Cave art expert Jean Clottes reviewed the paintings. “I was amazed at the number of paintings there were and paintings of their quality and particularly in front of the panel of the horses.”Scientific analysis confirmed the prehistoric date of the artwork. Studies showed the drawings were created tens of thousands of years ago, before human history was written. The United Nations’ cultural agency UNESCO lists the cave as a World Heritage Site. They say that the drawings form a remarkable expression of early human artistic creation of grand excellence and variety.The Chauvet Cave has been named after the explorer who first entered it. However, its environment and drawings are too fragile to be visited by human beings. So the cave is closed, and only people there for scientific purposes can go inside and see the artwork.However, French authorities asked experts to create an exact copy of the cave, called Pont d’Arc Cavern. The copy, which we also call replica, c ost more than 59 million dollars to build. It opened at the end of April in France.Pascal Terrasse is the president of the cavern. He says everyone will be able to experience the thrill of looking at drawings made by the first humans in Europe. He says the place is magic because it is done so well. Authorities say they think as many as 400.000 people will be allowed to visit Pont d’Arc Cavern every year.41. According to the passage, the first scientist to enter the cave was ________.A. ChristianB. ElietteC. ClottesD. Chauvet42. According to Jean Clottes’ words in Paragraph 4, the paintings in the cave were ________.A. abstractB. superiorC. creativeD. inspiring43. Which of the following statements is TRUE about the Chauvet Cave?A. It was closed off for more than 30,000 years.B. It is thought to be the origin of modern parietal art.C. The environment and artwork there are very easy to damage.D. The majority of drawings there are about the extinct animals.44. Who can pay a visit to the Chauvet Cave nowadays?A. People who do scientific research.B. Scientists who found the cave first.C. Officials protecting historical heritage.D. Scientists from the United Nations.45. The purpose of creating Pont d’Arc Cavern is to ________.A. show admiration for the earliest artists in EuropeB. arouse visitors’ awareness of protecting ancient artC. offer visitors chances to view the wonderful artworkD. collect money for the perseverance of the Chauvet CaveBThis coming year promises to be an exciting one for technology and science. There is already a line-up of great new gadget (小玩意). We have chosen four for you.No. 1 The Air Board 1.0 is a fantastic new way to get around. Ifyou are tired of walking, or just want to get somewhere at a relaxed pace,then the Air Board 1.0 is for you. The board works when you step onto the pressure pads. These can read the weight and the movement of the rider. If you want to turn, all you have to do is move your weight to the left or right and the board will do the rest. It is very quick and easy. According to the official website, the power will last for about ten miles (16 km). It can travel at the speed of 10 miles an hour and it takes one hour to be fully charged.No. 2 Do you enjoy using herbs and spices (香料) when cooking?Then this little gadget, inspired by NASA space technology, might be foryou. It makes sure that you always have fresh and well-grown herbs orplants when and where you need them. The Click & Grow is designed tobe small and efficient so it can fit on your countertop (厨房操作台). It is self-watering, it checks itself and it also has a LED grown light that makes sure the plants grow fast, strong, and healthy. For those interested, to use this gadget, all you need to do is place the plant box in, fill it up with water and plug it in. Simple, right? So instead of digging through the garden mud for your herbs, why don’t you make them in the control of your own kitchen?No. 3 The Miito gadget is perfect for all homes, and especiallythose who lik e to care for the environment. Miito has been called “thekettle of the future” by the Gadget Flow platform for its futuristic ideasand design. The Miito kettle is designed to heat up the water in anycontainer. For example, if you need a cup of water, you would fill the cup with the right amount of water and place it onto the kettle. After placing the rod into the water, the rod would heat up and so would the water. Though it can’t heat anything made of iron, the Miito’s design and unique method of heating don’t only save water. They also save electricity.No. 4 Have you ever wished you could walk through the worldsof your games, seeing things as your characters would? Well now, youcan. The Rift released by Oculus VR is the latest and greatest in gamingtechnology so far. Designed by American Palmer Luckey, 23, this clever head set allows you to see the worlds of your games in 3-D. Although you might need to upgrade your computer to get the full gaming experience with the Rift, it’s the next step in vir tual reality and it’s improving the way we can play games. Alongside the Oculus headset, the teams are working on creating a controller named Oculus. The Oculus Rift has been designed so that playerscan’t only see, but also play in, 3-D worlds.46. It will take you ______ to get to your school (2.5 miles away) on a fully-charged Air Board 1.0.A. 8 minutesB. 10 minutesC. 12 minutesD. 15 minutes47.

The Rift is one of the popular gaming products by Oculus VR.49. Where is the text most probably from?A. An experiment report.B. A travel journal.C. A science report.D. A scientific story.CBefore 1840 architects and builders made buildings from stone, brick, or wood. The outside walls held up the weight of the building. A building that had more than a few stories became very heavy. A tall building, such as a castle, had very thick walls.As time went by, architecture began to change. By 1850 builders had begun to use a metal called iron for the fronts of some large buildings. Iron is lighter than stone and stronger than wood. People dig raw iron from the ground, but raw iron is not enough to use in buildings. Builders must use another type of iron called an alloy.An alloy is a metal that contains different metals and other compounds, or mixtures of chemicals. The metals and compounds are melted and mixed together to form the alloy. To make an iron alloy, workers use a blast furnace. This machine creates great heat. It has a tall chamber that is lined with brick and open at the top. Workers put limestone, raw iron, and coke (a substance made from coal) into the top of the furnace. They force hot air into the bottom of the furnace. The hot air and a chemical reaction turn the materials into a liquid mass. Workers pour off waste liquid, called slag, and save the iron. Then they form the hot iron into large blocks called pigs, which can be formed into objects. This formed iron is called cast iron.Cast iron is strong, but it still contains unwanted materials. People wanted to remove these impurities. To do this, they needed to heat the iron to very high temperature. Blast furnaces could not make that much heat.In England in 1855, Sir Henry Bessemer found the solution. He forced air through liquid pig iron. The oxygen in the air mixed with the impurities in the iron in a process called oxidation. Oxidation creates heat. The heat turns impurities into slag, which is poured off so that only pure steel remains. Pure steel is much stronger than iron. The Bessemer process took place in an egg-shaped machine called a converter. With this process, workers began to make large amounts of steel quickly and cheaply.By the late 1800s, many people lived in big cities. The price of land increased, one way builders could lower costs was to build taller buildings, which used less land. In Chicago in 1889, George A. Fuller completed the Tacoma Buildings, which had steel beams to hold up its weight. Soon people built more tall buildings with 10 to 20 stories. These were the first skyscrapers.50. Alloys are important because they ________.A. have no impuritiesB. are the raw materials that people use to make ironC. may be more useful than the separate metals in the alloyD. contain different metals51. The Bessemer process was a success because it produced __________.A. iron from steelB. steel quickly and cheaplyC. less slag than a blast furnaceD. impurities in the iron52. Sir Henry Bessemer probably __________.A. avoided difficult problemsB. created slag into pure steelC. was not familiar with metals such as steelD. knew how to make cast iron53. From the article, you can conclude that architects throughout history __________.A. thought carefully about materials when they designed buildingsB. could not design creative buildings until steel was inventedC. disliked stone, brick, and woodD. liked to design tall buildings54. Which of the statements below expresses the main idea of the article?A. Discoveries about iron and steel have allowed people to build taller buildings.B. Sir Henry Bessemer developed a process to make steel.C. Architects use many kinds of materials in buildings.D. Changes about designing building.DMy father’s family is not a musical family. The y are a family of words. My brother has my father’s dark hair, his love of a good argument. I take after my mother. From her I inherited a curious nature, a sense of adventure, bright red hair. I did not, contrary to her hopes, inherit a talent for the piano. That fact was established beyond doubt after unsuccessful attempts to draw music from me.The piano lessons began when I was four. My mother was convinced that I would be a child Mozart. She found the ideal teacher—Madame Oblenka, a strict Russian woman, whose pursed lips were enough to frighten a wild horse into submission. Madame Oblenka, who expected a little Mozart, was not very delighted to find a little girl banging her fists (拳头) on the keys.I tried to please her. “Feel the music,” she urged. I “felt” it and winced (退避) my ear—for what is more unpleasant than a series of wrong notes played continuously? She “felt” my music, too, which is why she always left with an angrier expression than when she came.Once, when I was ten, I managed to record one of my own rehearsals (练习). In order to escape my practice sessions, I would close myself behind the door of the piano room, put on the tape recording, and read until the tape had finished. That method worked for a week, until my mother began to wonder why I always missed the same B-sharp. She knocked on the door, and, receiving no answer, came in to check on me and found that I had fallen asleep while the tape of my performance played on and on.I was twelve when my parents finally acknowledged that my hidden talent was not about to emerge any time soon. My mother, refusing to admit defeat, told me to pick another instrument. “Choose anything you want, Honey,” she said, assuming that freedom of choice would inspiredevotion. I thought long and hard and chose the drums. My parents, sensitive to noise, would be less than overjoyed by a daily bombardment of playing. I imagined my father in his study, cotton wads in his ears.I worked my way through several other instruments before my mother hit on another idea. Maybe I wasn’t meant to be an instrumentalist. Realizing that drama might be more suited to my talents, Mom took me to a drama teacher. However, he put me backstage, painting scenery. Once I recovered from my sense of injury, I realized the wisdom of his choice. I loved the active, practical backstage world, and I discovered that I had a knack for constructing and painting. I loved the challenge of taking our scanty (贫乏) supplies and using them to make something beautiful. Imagining a scene and then seeing it emerge before me—this, to me, was close to magic.I’m a sculptor now, and every day I experience afresh the joy of being fully absorbed in the act of artistic creation. It’s a wonderful, blissful (乐而忘忧) feeling. I realize that my parents, in their misguided attempts to interest me in music, were trying to give me this feeling. And now I feel grateful. Perhaps they went about it in the wrong way, but their hearts were in the right place.55. Madame Oblenka always felt angry because__________.A. the author was too young to play the piano wellB. the author often pointed out the wrong notes of herC. the author kept banging on the keys unconsciouslyD. the author’s performance was far from satisfactory56. The underlined word “emerge” in the fifth paragraph can be replaced by __________.A. disappearB. showC. turnD. fail57. Which of the following best reveals the author’s attitude towards piano practice?A. She tried to make the piano teacher pleased.B. She recorded her performance for improvement.C. She played the recording instead of practicing.D. She repeated the same mistake in practicing.58. Why did the author choose the drums as a musical instrument?A. She was eager to free herself from piano lessons.B. She was reluctant to play an instrument.C. She was confident of handling them.D. She was fond of beating drums.59. The author’s mother can be best described as __________.A. devoted and stubbornB. encouraging and independentC. helpful and considerateD. hardworking and generous60. We can learn from the passage __________.A. parents should encourage their children to create artB. the ordinary backstage work can help one succeedC. you can only get better at something if you practiceD. art should be treated as a joy rather than a burden第二节: 下面文章中有5处(第61–65题)需要添加小标题｡请从以下选项(A､B､C､D､E和F)中选出符合各段意思的小标题,并在答题纸上将相应选项的标号涂黑｡选项中有一项是多余选项｡A. Adjust mental attitudesB. Be willing to communicateC. Pay attention to safety issuesD. Adapt to new learning methodsE. Make and stick to learning plansF. Develop self-motivation for learningTip for Chinese Students Studying AbroadAs living conditions in China are getting better, parents who want their children to have a bright future invest large sums of money to send their children to study abroad. However, there are countless difficulties that students have to face and solve when they study abroad. Therefore it is necessary for Chinese overseas students to be aware of certain things to which they must pay attention.61. ______Safety issues before and after studying abroad have been one of the focuses of parents. However, all experts consider psychological preparation as the most important thing for students studying abroad to consider. They believe that students must have a clear picture of their position and know that they are going abroad to study and receive training and not for leisure. And theyshould not have the opinion that everything abroad is good and all things from China are bad. Students should prepare themselves for the differences.62. ______Chinese students have got accustomed to the domestic exam-oriented education style that is completely different from the more open foreign education mode. They will face changes in the educational system while studying abroad. So students should learn about the differences between the domestic and foreign education styles and try to find more solutions to adjusting to the open education in order to be well prepared for their overseas studies both mentally and practically.63. ______Students should ask related teachers to help make plans consistent with their practical condition. There should be both macro and detailed learning plans. Macro learning plans require students to hold on to the primary direction of their overseas studies and detailed learning plans require them to arrange learning content for each course and semester. After the plan is made, they should strictly keep to them. Otherwise, the plan will have no effect.64. ______As Chinese students are not familiar with the place and people, and have no relatives by their sides, the first feeling they will feel is loneliness, which makes it especially important to learn to develop relationships with people around them. They may meet all kinds of fascinating people abroad. They should go out of their way to be friendly and strike up conversations. The most important thing is to pluck up enough courage to open your mouth and talk with others. Foreigners really like children of this kind and are willing to help them.65. ______Foreign children are used to learning by themselves in or after class, but Chinese children are used to teacher-centered education. Guided and supervised by parents and teachers, Chinese students don’t have much learning space. They may score high in exams, but they may lack independent learning skills and tend to be in a state of passive learning. So the most basic thing that children need to know is that studying abroad requires that they should adapt to overseas studies as soon as possible and try their best to learn actively and independently.非选择题部分(共40分)第三部分写作(共两节,满分40分)第一节:短文改错(共10小题;每小题1分,满分10分)下面短文中有10处语言错误｡请在有错误的地方增加､删除或修改某个单词｡增加:在缺词处加一个漏字符号(∧),并在其下面写上该加的词｡删除:把多余的词用斜线(\)划掉｡修改:在错的词下划一横线,并在该词下面写上修改后的词｡注意:1.每处错误及其修改均仅限一词｡2.只允许修改10处,多者(从第11处起)不计分｡During the summer holidays, I thought I should do anything meaningful instead of touring.

First and foremost, selfies provide a convenient approach to attracting ot hers’ attention for those eager to show off what’s happening around them. Besides, selfies enable them to be informed of comments from others, especially some positive ones.As far as I am concerned, more outgoing and confident as those selfie sharers may become, they can sometimes care too much about external beauty. Some bad comments may also follow. Whenever confronted with these, we should insist that true beauty comes from the within. Posting selfies only adds color to our dally life and thus we should use it as a tool properly.。
