However, Ronny was different from his classmates in other ways. He had a speech problem so he couldn’t 16 like other kids in his grade.‎ ‎ I worked with all the students in Ronny’s class one by one to improve their reading skills. On the days when it was Ronny’s 17 , I’d give him a silent smile, and he’d fly out of his chair. He sat very close to me and opened the book as if he was opening a treasure nobody had ever seen.‎ ‎ I watched his 18 move slowly under each letter as he struggled (努力) to read out. Every time he 19 to read a word with a strange pronunciation, the biggest smile would spread across his face and his eyes would shine with 20 . It broke my heart each and every time.‎ ‎ A few weeks 21 the school year ended, I held an awards ceremony (颁奖典礼). I ‎ ‎ 22 Ronny with a book — one of those Little Golden Books that only cost $5. Tears ran down his face as he held the book close to him and went 23 to his seat. I stayed with the class for the rest of the day. Ronny never let go of (放开) the 24 , not once. It never left his hands.‎ ‎ A few days later, I returned to the school to visit. I 25 Ronny on a chair near the ‎ playground, the book open in his lap. His teacher said, “He hasn’t put that book down since you gave it to him. Do you know that’s his 26 book he’s ever actually owned?”‎ ‎ Keeping back my tears, I walked towards Ronny, placed my hand on his shoulder and asked, “Will you read me your book, Ronny?” And then, for the next few minutes, he read to me more ‎ ‎ 27 than I’d ever thought possible from him.

I was doing my shopping at our local supermarket with my five-year-old son, Tenyson. As we were leaving, we found that only minutes earlier an elderly woman had fallen over at the entrance and had hit her head on the ground. Her husband was with her, but there was blood everywhere and the woman was embarrassed(尴尬的) and clearly in shock. Walking towards the scene, Tenyson became very sad about what had happened to the couple. He said to me, “Mum, it’s not much fun falling over in front of everyone.”‎ At the front of the supermarket a charity group had set up a stand selling fish and chips and ‎ flowers to raise funds. Tenyson suggested that we should buy the lady a flower. “It will make her feel better,” he said. I was amazed that he’d come up with such a sweet idea. So we went over to the flower seller and asked her if we could buy a flower for the lady to cheer her up. “Just take it,” she replied. “I can’t take your money for such a wonderful gesture(姿势).”‎ By now paramedics（救援人员）had arrived, and were attending the injured(受伤的) woman. As we walked up to her, my son became intimidated by all the blood and medical equipment(器具). He said he was just too scared to go up to her.‎ Instead I gave the flower to the woman’s husband and told him, “My son was very sad for your wife and wanted to give her this flower to make her feel better.”‎ At that, the old man started crying and said, “Thank you so much, you have a wonderful son. Happy Mother’s Day to you.”‎ The man then bent down and gave his wife the flower, telling her who it was from. Though badly hurt and shaken, the old lady looked up at Tenyson with love in her eyes and gave him a little smile.‎ ‎31. What does the writer want to tell us?‎ A. One can never be too careful. B. Actions speak louder than words.‎ C. Love begins with a little smile. D. A small act of kindness brings a great joy.‎ ‎32. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?‎ A.

Mother’s Day C. An Accidental Injury D. An Embarrassing Moment B Reading is very important. World Book Day falls on April 23 every year. It was set up by UNESCO (联合国教科文组织) in 1955 to encourage people, especially teenagers, to discover ‎ the pleasure of reading. ‎ Many countries celebrate World Book Day. On that day in the UK, millions of students can buy books of special price, much lower than usual in any bookstore. It has been done every year since1998. World Book Day is also celebrated in China. Premier Wen is an avid reader. He does lots of reading though he’s very busy. On World Book Day 2009, he called on people to do more reading. He suggested that young people should spend more time reading. “Books can’t change the world, but people can change the world by changing themselves through reading,” he said. ‎ ‎ Reading can benefit (有益于) people in many ways. Reading helps us become more knowledgeable and more intelligent. Reading helps us to follow the latest developments of science and technology. Reading provides us with information about other culture and places of the world. When we read, we may find many things that are unknown to us. We would have to use our brain to think about them or do more reading to find out the answers. The more we read, the more we know. The more we know, the smarter we become. Reading is also one of the most important ways to learn a foreign language like English. We all know that we can’t learn everything at school, for example, the ways English people are speaking and writing today. ‎ ‎“Reading makes a full man.” Books, magazines, newspapers and other kinds of reading materials can help us to know more about the outside world and perfect us. Therefore, it is necessary for us to form the habit of reading every day. ‎ ‎36. When is World Book Day?‎ A. August 8 every year. B. March 12 every year. ‎ C. April 23 every year. D. June 6 every year.‎ ‎37. An avid reader is a person who .‎ A. loves reading B. never reads C. does some reading D. hates reading ‎38.

According to the passage, reading can help people in many ways EXCEPT .‎ A. learning English better B. knowing more about cultures C. improving your health D. knowing more about the outside world ‎40. What’s the best title for the article?‎ A. World Book Day in England. B. Suggestions on reading.‎ C. World Book Day in China. D. World Book Day and the Advantages of Reading.‎ ‎ C I will never forget my experiences in the United States. I went to an American college a year ago. Yet I did not know the real American society until I was hurt in a car accident because after the accident I had to see a doctor and go to court（法院）.‎ After the accident, my roommate called a doctor for me. I was very grateful and decided to repay him one day. But the next day, he asked me to pay him $200 for what he had done. I was amazed. He had good reason to charge me, he said. And if I wanted to collect money from the person who was responsible(负有责任的) for my accident, I’d have to have a good lawyer. And only a good doctor can help me get a good lawyer. Now that he had helped me find a good doctor, it was only fair that I should pay him. But every day I went to see the doctor, I had to wait about 50 minutes. He would see two or three patients at the same time, and often stop treating one so as to see another. Yet he charged me $115 each time. The final examination report consisted of ten lines, and it cost me $215. My lawyer was all smiles the first time we met. But after that he avoided seeing me at all. He knew very well the other party was responsible for the accident, yet he hardly did anything. He simply waited to collect his money. He was so irresponsible that I decided to refuse his help. And he made me pay him $770. x k b 1 . c o m Now I had to act as my own lawyer. I told the insurance(保险）company the date I was leaving America because of my inexperience（缺少经验）. Knowing that, they played for time and I left without getting a cent.‎ My experiences taught me two things about America: firstly, in a country like America money is everything. It is more important than friendship, honor or professional morality. Secondly, foreigners are still being unfairly treated. So when we talk about America, we should see both its good and bad sides.‎ ‎41. The writer’s roommate offered to help him because________.‎ A. he thought it was a chance to make some money ‎ B. he felt sorry for the writer C. he knew the doctor was a very good one ‎ D. he wanted the writer to have a good lawyer ‎42. A good lawyer is important for the writer to __________.‎ A. be well treated by the doctor B. talk with the person responsible for the accident C. get what he should pay for his injury D. get well before he leaves that country.‎ ‎43. Both the doctor and the lawyer in this passage are very__________.‎ A. selfish B. friendly C. rude D. busy ‎44. The underlined word “charge” in the second paragraph means ______.‎ A. 职责 B. 掌管 C. 索价 D. 命令 ‎45. What conclusion can you draw from the story?‎ A. Going to court is something very common in America.‎ B. One must be very careful while driving a car. ‎ C. Money is more important than other things in the US.‎ D. There are more bad sides in America than good sides.‎ 第二部分 非选择题(共60分)‎ 四、阅读表达 阅读下面的短文，根据短文内容回答问题。(共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分)‎ More and more people have phones today. Phone calls and messages help us easily keep in touch with others. It means that we seldom write letters now, but a TV show----Letters Alive(见字如面), is bringing back this old habit.‎ Letters Alive got its idea from a UK program with a similar name. Both shows invite famous actors and actresses, but there are no funny jokes or different competitions. Instead, it’s just one person walking up to a microphone and reading a letter.‎ The letters were written by people from different times in history. For example, in one episode(一集) they read a letter written by famous writer Xiao Hong to her younger brother in 1941. The letter shows that Xiao Hong missed her brother so much and had great hopes for his future.‎ Since its first episode on Dec 5, 2016, Letters Alive has been widely welcomed. Many audience members said that it has provided a breath of fresh air to today’s TV shows.‎ Apart from Letters Alive, some other cultural TV shows have also been well received by Chinese audiences. They include Chinese Poetry Conference (中国诗词大会), a classical Chinese poetry competition, and Readers(朗读者), a program that invites people to read poems and articles they like or wrote.‎ ‎“This means that our audiences are not only looking for entertainment like gossip(八卦) and eye-catching games,” reported China Youth Daily. “Cultural values and true feelings are the keys to winning praise.”‎ 回答下面5个问题，每题答案不超过5个词。‎ ‎46. What does the old habit mean in the first paragraph?‎ ‎ ▲ ‎ ‎47. Who does the show invite to read letters?‎ ‎ ▲ ‎ ‎48. When was the first episode of Letters Alive broadcast?‎ ‎ ▲ ‎ ‎49. What do many audience members think Letters Alive provide to today’s TV shows?‎ ‎ ▲ ‎ ‎50. What are imprtant to be popular?‎ ‎ ▲ ‎ 五、任务型阅读 阅读下面短文，根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填入一个最恰当的单词。每个空格只填1个单词。(共10空；每空1分，满分10分)‎ No matter when we meet with difficulty or failure, teachers, parents or others often say to us or perhaps we say to ourselves, “Never give up.” These can be encouraging words and words of determination(决心). A person who believes in himself will keep trying to reach his goal no matter how many times he fails. In my opinion, the quality of determination to succeed is an important one to have. Therefore, I believe that we should never give up.‎ One reason is that if we give up too easily, we will hardly achieve anything. It is not unusual for us to fail in our first attempt(尝试) at something new, so we should not feel disappointed(失望的) and should try again. Besides, if we always give up when we fail, we will not be able to develop new skills and grow.‎ Another reason we should never give up is that we can learn from our mistakes so that we can not make the same ones. If we do not try again, the lesson we have learned is wasted.‎ Finally, we should never give up because as we work to reach our goals, we develop confidence, and this confidence can help us succeed in other areas of our lives. If we never challenge ourselves, we will begin to doubt our abilities.‎ In short, it is important that we do not give up when working for our goals. Whether we succeed in the end or not, we will learn something, and what we learn will help us to become better and more confident. Furthermore, if we give up, we have no chance of reaching our goals any more, but if we keep making great efforts, there is always a chance that we will succeed one day.‎ Topic: Never Give Up ‎ Meaning ‎●The words “Never give up” can (51) ▲ others or oneself and express one’s determination.‎ Opinion ‎●A person who wants to (52) ▲ should have the quality of ‎ determination. So we should never give up.‎ ‎(53) ▲ ‎ ‎●If we give up too easily, maybe we will achieve (54) ▲ , so when we fail in our first attempt at something new, we should not ‎ disappoint ourselves but try (55) ▲ .‎ ‎●Always giving up means that we will not be able to (56) ▲ any progress.‎ ‎●Never giving up will make us learn from the mistakes we’ve made before and learn the (57) ▲ so as not to make the same mistakes.‎ ‎●To reach our goals and develop the confidence which can help us improve ourselves, we must not give up but (58) ▲ ourselves.‎ Conclusion ‎ ‎ ‎●If you give up, you will have no (59) ▲ of reaching your goals. Never give up and you will get your (60) ▲ one day.‎ 六、词汇运用 (共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分)‎ ‎(A) 根据句意和汉语提示，在空白处填入一个适当的单词(每空限一词)。‎ ‎61. We should use English as often as we can in daily ▲ (交流).‎ ‎62.

There were many famous poets from different periods of time in Chinese history, and (71)m ▲ of their poems are still read and enjoyed today. ‎ To (72)r ▲ people of those classic Chinese poems, CCTV has produced a TV show – Chinese Poetry Competition. The show’s second season was shown on Feb 7. ‎ Wu Yishu, 16, who studies at the High School Afliated to Fudan University in Shanghai, came (73)f ▲ in the competition.

We can use smart-phones to read news, search information, shop online and chat with each other.‎ But some family members play with their smart-phones while eating with families instead of talking with them. It has bad effects on the relationship between them. Some people look at their smart-phones while walking even riding or driving. It may increase the danger of causing traffic accidents. Some people play with smart-phones before sleeping at night. It’s bad for their health, work and study.‎ In fact, face-to-face conversations are much more convenient and better than chatting online by phone. Mobile phones are helpful and necessary tools for modern life. But we should make good use of them and try to be “healthy” users rather than Phubbers.‎
