They really want to succeed on their own merit."‎ ‎29. Gill Bullen’s words show that ▲ .‎ A. students can write their own homework easily B. students didn’t write the essays themselves properly C. the essays matched the title question correctly D. students can do better than they have expected ‎30. Which of the following statements is NOT true?‎ ‎ A. It is easy for teachers to recognize (识别) plagiarism.‎ ‎ B. The assignments handed in by two students may be identical.‎ ‎ C. Teachers know whether the work is the student’s work or plagiarism.‎ ‎ D. A large number of students don’t know that plagiarism is cheating.‎ ‎31. According to Paragraph 2 some students are so lazy that they don’t ▲ .‎ A. bother to remove the advertisements B. want to steal the whole essay C. check the mistakes on the Internet D. bother to do the work of cutting and pasting C Which part of the world has the most nearsighted students? Just look around you–it’s East Asia. Nine in ten school leavers in major East Asian cities are nearsighted, according to the BBC. Experts say books and video games are not to blame. East Asian students, they say, aren’t getting enough sunlight.‎ People become nearsighted because their eyeballs grow out of shape and light entering their eyes cannot focus correctly. The body can produce a chemical called dopamine (多巴胺) to stop eyeballs from changing shape. And guess what scientists have just discovered? Sunlight can help our bodies produce more dopamine, reported AFP.‎ According to the study, primary school students in Singapore spend only 30 minutes outdoors every day; in Australia, by contrast, kids spend about three hours a day outside. As a result, fewer children in Australia are nearsighted–only 10 percent, compared with 90 percent in Singapore.‎ ‎“Children in East Asia basically go to school，go home and stay inside. They study and they watch television,” Ian Morgan of the Australian National University told AFP.‎ But being a bookworm or a couch potato does not directly harm the eyes, added Morgan. “As long as they get outside, it doesn’t seem to matter how much study they do,” he explained. “There are some kids who study hard and get outside and play hard and they are generally fine. The ones who are at major risk are the ones who study hard and don’t get outside. As a result of massive (巨大的) educational pressures and the construction (构成) of a child’s day, the amount of time they spend outside in bright light is “minimized.” ‎ Experts suggest children should stay outside for two to three hours every day. This can include time spent in the playground and walking to and from school. ‎ ‎32. What is the main reason for the large number of nearsighted students in East Asia, according ‎ to scientists?‎ A. Too much reading or gaming. B. Lack of sunlight.‎ C. Genetic reasons. D. Lack of exercise.‎ ‎33. What can we learn from Paragraph 2?‎ A. Dopamine is a chemical that causes eyeballs to grow out of shape.‎ B. Dopamine can stop light entering the eyes from focusing correctly.‎ C. Spending time in the sun can make the loss of dopamine in the body.‎ D. The more dopamine a person has in their body, the better eyesight he or she has.‎ ‎34. According to Morgan, what kind of people are most likely to suffer from nearsightedness?‎ A. Those who like watching TV.‎ B. Those who take exercise regularly.‎ C. Those who study hard and play hard outdoors.‎ D. Those who stay indoors studying all day.‎ ‎35. The word “minimized” probably means “ ▲ ”.‎ A. reduced as much as possible B. made better use of C. taken little notice of D. attached much importance to 四、词汇运用(共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分)‎ A)根据句意，用括号中所给单词的正确形式填空，每空一词。‎ ‎36.

Many traffic accidents h 48 just because of the heavy haze weather，more and more people have to go to see the doctor because of the serious disease which caused by the haze，quite a lot of flights have to be put off，a great number of people have to stay at home for f 49 of the poisonous air caused by the haze. ‎ People have r 50 the great harm caused by the haze and the importance of protecting the environment.

You will be successful only by practicing. All your friends will be amazed at your performance. With a lot of hard work you can improve your jumps.‎ The first suggestion you should keep in mind is using a longer approach (助跑). This may cause the most common mistakes. You must be with at least 20 feet behind the bar (起跑线) for getting the time to make a better reaction.‎ Another important suggestion is to feel good with your running speed. Remember this is not a running competition. Try to make suitable for the speed to your body. Run perpendicularly (直立地) to the bar and do the best you can. Even if your friends run faster than you, the important thing is how high the jump is.‎ Lifting weights will help you improve the body balance. This is very important if you wish to jump high. Try not to do this exercising in the same day when you are planning to jump. You need a good plan for exercising. By lifting weights your muscles (肌肉) will get stronger too.‎ The only way to jump high is by working hard. You must know that it might take a while until you achieve the performance you wish. Giving up is not a choice. Do your best and someday you will get the best jumping skills in your friends.‎ 根据上面文章，完成下面的表格，每空一词。‎ Title: How to jump higher ‎ Topic Your jumps can be 56 with lots of hard work.‎ ‎ 57 ‎ Run from the place which is at least 20 feet behind the bar to get the time to react ‎ 58 .‎ Run perpendicularly to the bar and try your best to jump.‎ Don’t be   59 of your competitors’ faster speed.‎ Practise lifting weights before the day you jump to improve your body balance and ‎ get  stronger muscles.‎ Summary ‎ 60 yourself working hard and someday you’ll have good jump skills.‎ B Halloween is a strange holiday. It started several centuries ago in Europe (欧洲). It began as “Hallow Evening” which means “holy night”. At that time November 1st was called “All Saints' Day” (万圣日) and people honored all the saints who did not have their own special day. People believed that all the spirits of dead people were active on the night of October 31st. So people would play all sorts of tricks on each other. ‎ Black is one of the traditional Halloween colors, probably because Halloween festivals and traditions took place at night. Pumpkins are a symbol of Halloween, so orange has become the other traditional Halloween color. Making lanterns out of pumpkins is a Halloween custom.‎ Halloween is great fun for children. They dress up as ghosts, witches (女巫). Small children go “Trick-or-Treating”. They wear costumes, knock on doors, and shout “Trick or Treat”! People almost always choose to give them candy as a treat, instead of choosing to receive a trick from the children. Adults sometimes “trick or treat” their friends, too. Usually the “treat” is a glass of wine or some small gifts.‎ 根据上面短文内容用恰当的词填空，每空一词。‎ ‎61. Halloween is a holiday which started ▲ of years ago in Europe.‎ ‎62.
