Let me in！”‎ The voice behind the 45 answered，“Billy doesn’t live here anymore.He ran away from home.”Glancing behind me to see if anyone else was coming, I begged, “Aw, c’mon, Mom!

Here we help with ways to cut your costs.‎ AVOID BIG EVENTS　Big sporting events, concerts and exhibitions can increase the cost of accommodation and make it harder to find a room.A standard double room at the Thistle Brighton on the final Friday of the Brighton Comedy Festival(19 Oct.) cost￡169.15 at Booking.com.A week later, the same room cost ￡118.15.‎ If you can be flexible and want to know dates to avoid—or you’re looking for a big event to pass your time—check out sites such as Whatsonwhen.com, which allow you to search for events in the UK by city, date and category.‎ STAY AWAY FROM THE STATION　If traveling to your destination by train, you may want to find a good base close to the station, but you could end up paying more for the sake of convenience at the start of your holiday.‎ Don’t be too choosy about the part of town you stay in.Booking two months in advance, the cheapest room at Travelodge’s Central Euston hotel in London for Saturday 22 September was ￡95.95.A room just a tube journey away at its Covent Garden hotel was ￡75.75.And at Farringdon, a double room cost just ￡62.95.‎ LOOK AFTER YOURSELF　Really central hotels in cities such as London, Edinburgh and Cardiff can cost a fortune, especially at weekends and during big events.As an alternative consider checking into a selfcatering flat with its own kitchen.Often these flats are hidden away on the top floors of city centre buildings.A great example is the historic O’Neill Flat on Edinburgh’s Royal ‎ Mile, available for ￡420 for five days in late September, with room for four adults.‎ GET ON A BIKE　London’s Boris bikes’ have attracted the most attention, but other cities also have similar programmes that let you rent a bicycle and explore at your own pace, saving you on public transport or car parking costs.‎ Among the smaller cities with their own programmes are Newcastle(casual members pay around ￡1.50 for two hours) and Cardiff (free for up to 30 minutes, or ￡5 per day)．‎ ‎56．The Brighton Comedy Festival is mentioned mainly to show big events may .‎ A．help travelers pass time B．attract lots of travelers to the ‎UK C．allow travelers to make flexible plans D．cause travelers to pay more for accommodation 答案　D 解析　推理判断题。根据第二段第一句的“Big sporting events, concerts and exhibitions can increase the cost of accommodation and make it harder to find a room.”可知作者建议避免在一些重大节日时出门旅游，因为住宿费用会增加，D选项与此意吻合，为正确答案。‎ ‎57．“Farringdon” in Paragraph 5 is most probably .‎ A．a hotel away from the train station B．the tube line to ‎Covent Garden C．an ideal holiday destination D．the name of a travel agency 答案　A 解析　细节理解题。此段的大标题是“远离车站”，然后开始举例说明。根据“￡95.95；￡75.75；￡‎62.95”‎这三个数据的对比可知离车站越近，价格越高，故Farringdon很可能是远离车站的一个旅馆，A选项与此意吻合，为正确答案，其他选项均与文意不符。‎ ‎58．The passage shows that the O’Neill Flat .‎ A．lies on the ground floor B．is located in central ‎London C．provides cooking facilities for tourists D．costs over ￡100 on average per day in late September 答案　C 解析　推理判断题。根据第六段第二、三句“As an alternative consider checking into a selfcatering flat with its own kitchen.Often these flats are hidden away on the top floors of city centre buildings.”和第四句中的“A great example is...”可以推断，此处表示有一些旅馆能够提供有厨房的房间，而O’Neill Flat便是一个例子，C选项与此意吻合。‎ ‎59．Cardiff’s program allows a free bike for a maximum period of .‎ A．half an hour B．one hour C．one hour and a half D．two hours 答案　A 解析　细节理解题。根据文章最后一段中“...and Cardiff (free for up to 30 minutes, or ￡5 per day)”可知这个计划是骑自行车30分钟之内免费，一天5英磅，A选项与此意吻合。‎ ‎60．The main purpose of the passage is .‎ A．to tell visitors how to book in advance B．to supply visitors with hotel information C．to show visitors the importance of selfhelp D．to offer visitors some moneysaving tips 答案　D 解析　主旨大意题。文章的开头“Planning a visit to the UK? Here we help with ways to cut your costs.”总领全文，介绍了一些能够帮助减少旅游费用的建议，D选项与此意吻合。‎ B In my living room, there is a plaque (匾) that advises me to “Bloom(开花) where you are planted.” It reminds me of Dorothy.I got to know Dorothy in the early 1980s, when I was teaching Early Childhood Development through a program with Union‎ ‎College in Barbourville, Kentucky.The job responsibilities required occasional visits to the classroom of each teacher in the program.Dorothy stands out in my memory as one who “bloomed” in her remote area.‎ Dorothy taught in a school in Harlan County, Kentucky, Appalachian Mountain area.To get to her school from the town of Harlan, I followed a road winding around the mountain.In the eightmile journey, I crossed the same railroad track five times, giving the possibility of getting caught by the same train five times.Rather than feeling excited by this drive through the mountains, I found it depressing.The poverty level was shocking and the small shabby houses gave me the greatest feeling of hopelessness.‎ From the moment of my arrival at the little school, all gloom(忧郁) disappeared.Upon arriving at Dorothy’s classroom，I was greeted with smiling faces and treated like a queen.The children had been prepared to show me their latest projects.Dorothy told me with a big smile that they were serving poke greens salad and cornbread for “dinner” (lunch)．In case you don’t know, poke greens are a weedtype plant that grows wild, especially on poor ground.‎ Dorothy never ran out of reports of exciting activities of her students.Her enthusiasm never cooled down.When it came time to sit for the testing and interviewing required to receive her Child Development Associate Certification, Dorothy was ready.She came to the assessment and passed in ‎ all areas.Afterward, she invited me to the oneandonly steak house in the area to celebrate her victory, as if she had received her Ph.D.degree.After the meal, she placed a little box containing an old pen in my hand.She said it was a family heirloom(传家宝), but to me it is a treasured symbol of appreciation and pride that cannot be matched with things.‎ ‎61．“Early Childhood Development” in Paragraph 1 refers to .‎ A．a program directed by Dorothy B．a course given by the author C．an activity held by the students D．an organization sponsored by ‎Union‎ ‎College 答案　B 解析　细节理解题。根据第一段的第三句“I got to know Dorothy in the early 1980s, when I was teaching Early Childhood Development through a program with Union College in Barbourville, Kentucky.”可知，我当时是通过一个项目任教“Early Childhood Development”， B选项与此意吻合。 ‎ ‎62．In the journey, the author was most disappointed at seeing .‎ A．the long track B．the poor houses C．the same train D．the winding road 答案　B 解析　细节理解题。根据第二段的最后两句“Rather than feeling excited by this drive through the mountains, I found it depressing. The poverty level was shocking and the small shabby houses gave me the greatest feeling of hopelessness.”可知作者非常的失落，这里的贫穷令人震惊，低矮的小房子让作者感到了绝望，B选项与此意吻合。‎ ‎63．Upon arriving at the classroom, the author was cheered up by .‎ A．a warm welcome B．the sight of poke greens C．Dorothy’s latest projects D．a big dinner made for her 答案　A 解析　推理判断题。根据第三段第二句“Upon arriving at Dorothy’s classroom, I was greeted with

you have the right to education.‎ D．Wherever you are, you can accomplish your achievement.‎ 答案　D 解析　主旨大意题。作者在文章开头提到了那个有着不寻常意义的匾上的字，“Bloom where you are planted.”，即“在你被播种的地方开花”，并用自己经历的故事告诉我们，不管我们在哪里，都能实现自己的成就和梦想，D选项与此意吻合。‎ C It’s such a happylooking library, painted yellow, decorated with palmtree stickers and sheltered from the Florida sun by its own roof.About the size of a microwave oven, it’s pedestrianfriendly，too, waiting for book lovers next to a sidewalk in Palm Beach Country Estates, along the northern boundary of Palm Beach Gardens.‎ It’s a library built with love.‎ A year ago, shortly after Janey Henriksen saw a Brian Williams report about the Little Free Library organization, a Wisconsinbased nonprofit that aims to promote literacy and build a sense of community in a neighborhood by making books freely available, she announced to her family of four, “That’s what we’re going to do for our spring break！”‎ Son Austin, now a 10thgrader, didn’t see the point of building a library that resembles a mailbox.But Janey insisted, and husband Peter unwillingly got to work.The 51yearold owner of a ship supply company modified a small wooden house that he’d built years earlier for daughter Abbie’s toy horses, and made a door of glass.‎ After adding the library’s final touches(装点), the family hung a signboard on the front, instructing users to “take a book, return a book，”and making the Henriksen library, now one of several hundred like it nationwide and among more than ‎2,500 in the world, the only Little Free Library in Palm Beach County.‎ They stocked it with 20 or so books they’d already read, a mix of science fiction, reference titles, novels and kids’ favorites.“I told them, keep in mind that you might not see it again，” ‎ said Janey, a stayathome mom.‎ Since then, the collection keeps replenishing(补充) itself, thanks to ongoing donations from borrowers.The library now gets an average of five visits a day.‎ The project’s best payoff, says Peter, are the thankyou notes left behind.“We had no idea in the beginning that it would be so popular.”‎ ‎66．In what way is the library “pedestrianfriendly”？‎ A．It owns a yellow roof.‎ B．It stands near a sidewalk.‎ C．It protects book lovers from the sun.‎ D．It uses palmtree stickers as decorations.‎ 答案　B 解析　细节理解题。根据第一段第二句“...it’s pedestrianfriendly, too, waiting

D．with glass 答案　C 解析　细节理解题。根据第四段第一句“Son Austin, now a 10thgrader，didn’t see the point of building a library that resembles a mailbox.”可知定语从句“that resembles a mailbox”修饰的是先行词a library，即“一个类似于邮箱的图书馆”， C选项与此意吻合。‎ ‎69．What can we infer about the signboard?‎ A．It was made by a user of the library.‎ B．It marked a final touch to the library.‎ C．It aimed at making the library last long.‎ D．It indicated the library was a family property.‎ 答案　C 解析　推理判断题。根据第五段第一句中“...instructing users to ‘take a book, return a book，’and making the Henriksen library, now one of several hundred like it nationwide and among more than ‎2,500 in the world, the only Little Free Library in Palm Beach County.”可知在前面加上一个布告板是为了使这个图书馆能够拥有更多的读者，能够跻身国际地位，能够长久，C选项与此意吻合。 ‎ ‎70．The passage tells us that the users .‎ A．donate books to the library B．get paid to collect books for the library C．receive thankyou notes for using the library D．visit the library over 5 times on average daily 答案　A 解析　推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“Since then, the collection keeps replenishing itself, thanks to ongoing donations from borrowers.The library now gets an average of five visits a day.”可知读者捐赠了很多书，A选项与此意吻合。 ‎ Part Ⅳ　Writing (45 marks)‎ Section A (10 marks)‎ Directions: Read the following passage.Fill in the numbered blanks by using the information from the passage.‎ Write NO MORE THAN THREE WORDS for each answer.‎ While there is no widely accepted definition of MOOCs, their key features are open access：they are currently free to participants, no entry qualifications are required, they support an unlimited number of participants and as yet, very few include any form of accreditation (认证)．‎ Currently offered by some famous universities, MOOCs are attractive to people who do not have the financial resources to meet the growing costs of university education, or who do not have formal qualifications.They also allow participants to study at their own pace.‎ The potential for MOOCs to deliver education is obviously vast—they could be considered as a huge step forwards in widening participation.They also have the potential to provide a unique window on universities that offer popular and valuable courses, they may attract some participants to register for formal feepaying programmes at the same or other universities and are likely to promote new ways of online education.‎ However, it is still very early days for MOOCs.The quality of the education provision is highly variable, with many courses offering only recordings of lectures, and delivery is particularly ‎ difficult in some special fields that require practical classes, research projects or extensive library access.Besides, wider engagement with participants requires very considerable resource.Even limited feedback or examination becomes a major task if there are several thousand students in the class.‎ Considering the challenges, some people argue MOOCs will soon evaporate(蒸发)．But they certainly provide good opportunity for widening higher education, are a means of raising awareness of universities to audiences of tens or hundreds of thousands, and are well worthy of serious consideration.‎ Section B (10 marks)‎ Directions: Read the following passage.Answer the questions according to the information given in the passage.‎ ‎“Let’s Talk”：The Free Advice Project A few weeks ago, I took a walk around Washington Square Park.I met all the usual people：street performers, the Pigeon Guy, a group of guitarists singing in harmony.But off to the side, sitting on a bench was a woman doing something vastly different—giving free advice.‎ A week or two later, I set up an interview with her and we discussed her project at length.‎ Lisa Podell, 32, started the Free Advice Project this past May.It began as an experiment；she sat in Washington‎ Square ‎Park for a day with a sign that read “Free Advice” as a simple way to reach out to people.Podell was astonished at the strong response.‎ Podell admits that she was doubtful at first, but now she describes the project as mutually(‎ 相互地) beneficial.People learn from her—but she also learns from them.She says that the majority of those who come to her are dealing with some pretty heavy issues, and they expect her not only to listen, but also provide real answers.‎ Having worked as a full time teacher and now as an adolescent advisor, Podell believes that talking things out is important in the decisionmaking process.‎ Sometimes, people walk around all day, keeping their problems in their own head and thinking about them in the same way.Podell simply tries to provide people with perspective.‎ I asked if there is a future plan for the Free Advice Project.Podell said she would like to promote it to each public space in New York, which would be carried out by various volunteers across the city.‎ It was truly inspiring to meet someone with such a big heart, especially in New York—where it is sometimes very hard to find anybody to listen.‎ ‎81．In what way was Podell different from other people in the park? (No more than 6 words)(2 marks)‎ She was giving free advice.‎ ‎82．What do people in need expect Podell to do? (No more than 10 words)(3 marks)‎ They expect her to listen and provide real answers.‎ ‎83．According to Podell, what should people do when making decisions？(No more than 6 words)(2 marks)‎ They should talk things out.‎ ‎84．How would Podell promote her project in New York？(No more than 15 words)(3 marks)‎ She would promote it to each public space with the help of volunteers.‎ Section C(25 marks)‎ Directions: Write an English composition according to the instructions given below.‎ 请以下列词语为关键词写一篇英语短文。‎ 内容：1.自己或他人的一次经历；‎ ‎2．你的感受。‎ 注意：1.必须使用所给4个关键词；‎ ‎2．词数不少于120个。‎
