Whenever I was “bad”, you'd shake your finger at me and ask, “How could you?”--but then you'd give up, and roll me over for a belly scratch and I believed that life could not be any more perfect.‎ My housetraining was a long process, because you were terribly busy, but we worked on that together. We went for long walks, runs in the park and car rides. We stopped for ice cream. I took long naps in the sun waiting for you to come home at the end of the day.‎ Gradually, you began spending more time at work and on your career, and more time searching for a human mate. Eventually, you fell in love. She, now your wife, is not a dog person, but I still welcomed her into our home. I was happy because you were happy. Then the human babies came along and I shared your excitement, I was fascinated by their pinkness, how they smelled, and I wanted to mother them too. Your wife was afraid I would bite them. But nevertheless, as they began to grow, I became their friend.‎ Now, you have a new job in another city and you and they will be moving to an apartment that does not allow pets. You've made the right decision for your “family”, but there was a time when I was your only family.‎ I was excited about the car ride until we arrived at the dog pound. It smelled of dogs and cats, of fear, of hopelessness. You filled out the paperwork and said, “I know you will find a good home for her.” They shrugged and gave you a pained look. The children were in tears as they waved me goodbye. And “How could you?” were the only three words that swept over my mind.‎ Is it better to live with hope or without hope? At first, whenever anyone passed my pen , I rushed to the front, hoping it was you, that you had changed your mind and that this was all a bad dream.‎ My beloved master, I will think of you and wait for you forever. I hope you receive more faithfulness from your family than you showed to me.‎ ‎21. Why was the dog excited about the car ride?‎ A. It thought of moving with its master. ‎ B. It hoped to be adopted（收养）by another family.‎ C. It was longing for the life at the pound D. It was happy about its master's decision.‎ ‎22. The underlined sentence in Paragraph 5 shows that ________.‎ A. the dog had done many bad things B. the dog would be given less care C. the master's decision upset the dog D. the master left the dog with regret ‎23. Which is true about the dog when it lived at the pound?‎ A．It felt disappointed with its master. B．It continued to love its former owner.‎ C．It did not trust humans any more. D. It was excited about the pound.‎ ‎24. What is the theme of the story?‎ A．Be ready for changes. B．Never expect too much.‎ C．Never complain about your life. D．Be faithful to those who love you.‎ B ‎136 Crestview Circle Dover, Connecticut January 16, 2015‎ Gander’s Furniture Store Stamford, Connecticut, 09876‎ Dear Sir, ‎ I am writing about your January bill, which I am returning with this letter. I am not going to pay this bill. Last month I bought a table and four chairs for $65.50. They were sent to me on December 18. That night one leg of the table broke while my wife was putting our dinner on it. It fell on one of the chair, and that broke, too. Our $ 2.50 steak landed on the floor, and the dog ate it. ‎ I spoke to the salesmen who had sold me the table and the chairs. He told me to write you a letter. I wrote you on December 20, saying that I was not going to pay for the furniture. On December 21 some men came and took it back to the store. ‎ Please do something about your records. I do not want to receive another bill for the furniture which I returned. ‎ Yours truly,‎ Alberts Robbins ‎25.

He was friendly. ‎ C ‎ This year some twenty-three hundred teenagers(young people aged from13~19)from all over the world will spend about ten months in U.S. homes. They will attend U.S. schools, meet U.S. teenagers, and form impressions of the real America. At the same time, about thirteen hundred American teenagers will go to other countries to learn new languages and gain a new understanding of the rest of the world.‎ Here is a two-way student exchange in action. Fred, nineteen, spent last year in Germany with George’s family. In turn, George’s son Mike spent a year in Fred’s home in America.‎ Fred, a lively young man, knew little German when he arrived, but after two months’ study the language began to come to him. School was completely different from what he had expected—much harder. Students rose respectfully when the teacher entered the room. They took fourteen subjects instead of the six that are usual in the United States. There were almost no outside activities.‎ Family life, too, was different. The father’s word was law, and all activities were around the family rather than the individual. Fred found the food too simple at first. Also, he missed having a car.‎ ‎“Back home, you pick up some friends in a car and go out and have a good time. In Germany, you walk, but you soon learn to like it.”‎ At the same time, in America, Mike, a friendly German boy, was also forming his idea. “I suppose I should criticize(批评)American schools,” he said. “It is far too easy by our level. But I have to say that I like it very much. In Germany we do nothing but study. Here we take part in many outside activities. I think that maybe your schools are better in training for citizens. There ought to be some middle ground between the two.”‎ 28. This year ________teenagers will take part in the exchange programme between America and other countries.‎ A. twenty-three hundred B. thirteen hundred C. over three thousand D. less than two thousand ‎29. The whole exchange programme is mainly to__________.‎ A. help teenagers in other countries know the real America B. send students in America to travel in Germany ‎ C. let students learn something about other countries ‎ D. have teenagers learn new languages ‎30. Fred and Mike agree that__________.‎ A. America food tasted better than German food B. German schools were harder than American schools C. Americans and Germans were both friendly D. There were more cars on the streets in America ‎31. What is particular in American schools is that________.‎ A. there is some middle ground between the two teaching buildings B. there are a lot of after-school activities C. students usually take fourteen subjects in all D. students go outside to enjoy themselves in a car D ‎“An apple a day keeps the doctor away.” Similarly, if we drink a little more water every day, we may find that we need to go to the doctor a lot less often. A healthy diet is made up of water and a great many different kinds of foods. We know that healthy foods like fruits, vegetables and fish, are important as they provide us with energy and fibre, without giving us too much fat and sugar. But why is water important?‎ The human body needs water to survive. Water is important as it carries poisons and waste out of our bodies. However, doctors advise us to drink plenty of water, much more than the small amount we need to stay alive.‎ Some doctors believe that water is important for our health in all kinds of ways. They believe that a great many illnesses and health problems start as a result of dehydration—a lack(缺少) of water in the body. Most people are dehydrated at least some of time, although they probably don’t know it. It is surprising to learn that if we feel thirsty, we are already in the first stages of dehydration. In fact, we are advised to drink water before we feel thirsty.‎ These doctors think that health problems such as headaches, high blood pressure and asthma could be helped if people drink more water. They also believe that drinking more water can help people who are overweight. Water contains no calories so it will not make us put on weight. If we drink water, we will probably drink less sugary soft drinks such as Coca-cola. Doctors also believe that drinking more water may stop people from overeating. They say that many people think that they are hungry when they are, in fact, thirsty. Doctors suggest, therefore, that we eat less food and drink more water.‎ There are still many health problems that cannot be solved by drinking water, so we should not stop going to seeing the doctor completely. However, if we make a decision to drink water every day, we may find that we need to go to the doctor a lot less often.‎ ‎32. We need _____for a healthy diet.‎ A. fibre B. food C. water D. Water and different foods ‎33. From the text, we know water can carry_________.‎ A. energy and fibre in our bodies B. fruit, vegetables and fish in our bodies C. sugar and fat out of our bodies D. poisons and waste out of our bodies ‎34. Lack of water caused people to put on weight too much because_______.‎ A. they think they are hungry and eat too much B. they think they are thirsty and eat less C. water has no calories D it makes them hungry ‎35. Which of the following isn’t mentioned in the passage?‎ A. Fruit provides us with energy and fibre.‎ B. Some healthy problems start because of a lack of water.‎ C. The amount of water a person should drink in a day.‎ D. Drinking more water may stop people from overeating.‎ 第二节(共5小题；每小题2分，满分10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。选项中有两项为多余选项。‎ The jobs of the future have not yet been invented. 36 By helping them develop classic skills that will serve them well no matter what the future holds.‎ ‎1. Curiosity Your children need to be deeply curious. 37 Ask kids, “What ingredients (配料)can we add to make these pancakes even better next time?” and then try them out. Did those ingredients make the pancakes better? What could we try next time?‎ ‎2. Creativity True creativity is the ability to take something existing and create something new from it. 38 There are a dozen different things you can do with them. Experimenting with materials to create something new can go a long way in helping them develop their creativity.‎ ‎3. Personal skills Understanding how others feel can be a challenge for kids. We know what’s going on inside our own head, but what about others? Being able to read people helps kid from misreading a situation and jumping to false conclusions. 39 “Why do you think she’s crying?” “Can you tell how that man is feeling by looking at his face?” “If someone were to do that to you, how would you feel?”‎ ‎4. Self Expression ‎ 40 There are many ways to express thoughts and ideas ---- music, acting, drawing, building, photography. You may find that your child is attracted by one more than another.‎ A. Encourage kids to cook with you.‎ B. And we can’t forget science education.‎ C. We can give kids chances to think about materials in new ways.‎ D. We can do this in real life or ask questions about characters in stories. ‎ E. Gardening is another great activity for helping kids develop this skill.‎ F. So how can we help our kids prepare for jobs that don’t yet exist?‎ G. Being able to communicate ideas in a meaningful way is a valuable skill.‎ 第三部分 英语知识运用（共两节，满分45分）‎ 第一节 完形填空（共20小题；每题1.5分，满分30分）‎ ‎ 阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的四个选项（A, B, C和D）中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。‎ My neighbor’s eight-year-old daughter used to live in the countryside, her native place.
