He told her not to open it until her birthday. She knew her mother wouldn’t tolerate any disrespect to the kind man who helped them out after Vicki’s father passed away. Besides, Vicki didn’t want to get Uncle Tom angry. But little Vicki didn’t want to just hold it and guess what was in it. After all, she looked forward to his coming to show her interesting things, like how to turn an old sock into a doll.‎ All the day, Vicki couldn’t stop thinking about the gift. While her teacher was giving a lecture, Vicki sat still in her seat, drawing paper dolls inside the box. When school was done, she raced home. Walking into the room, again, she shook the present, but she heard nothing. Holding her breath, she opened the box and looked inside. Seconds later, she cried. When Mrs Black saw the box, she said angrily, “Didn’t I tell you to leave it alone?” Vicki sobbed and said, “Mommy, you don’t understand.”‎ ‎“Don’t cry to me. You have missed everything now, just because you couldn’t wait, ” Mrs Black accused. “What will Uncle Tom think now?”‎ ‎“Uncle Tom gave me nothing,”Vicki cried and handed the empty box to her mother. “He played a trick on me.”‎ Mrs Black said doubtfully, “Uncle Tom is not like that. You must have dropped it.”‎ Vicki kept crying. Only a rapid knock on the door made the house quiet. It was Uncle Tom. He looked at the empty box. “You have already done it? I told you to wait for your birthday.”‎ ‎“You didn’t give me a gift.” Fresh tears filled her eyes.‎ ‎“I try to give you something. I know your birthday is a special day. I tell myself to give you something ‎ valuable to last your whole life. I think hard and get an idea to give you an important lesson. If you open it on birthday, I see you learn. Then I will make a big party to celebrate. Maybe next year you listen, and then you will understand the gift better.”‎ 1. We can learn from the text that Vicki_______.‎ A. often received gifts from her father B. liked and respected Uncle Tom C. was sad because of her father’s death D. expected uncle Tom to give her something expensive 2. What does the underlined sentence “You have already done it” refer to?‎ A. You have already opened the box.‎ B. You have already guessed the result.‎ C. You have already realized Uncle Tom’s purpose D. You have already known what the birthday gift was 3. What kind of person is Uncle Tom?‎ A. Mysterious. B. Humorous. C. Thoughtful. D. Generous. ‎ 4. What did Uncle Tom want to teach Vicki?‎ A. How to respect others. B. The value of a promise.‎ C. How to deal with gifts. D. The meaning of gifts.‎ B In the opinion of some people, the most direct, most touching, and easiest way of protecting wild animals, without doubt, is “the rescue of each individual wild animal”. On seeing a recovered bird return to the blue sky, they will feel moved with hot tears in the eyes.‎ However, what is very easily ignored by them is that the value of protecting each individual wild animal usually does not lie in the individual wild animal itself, but more frequently in the entire species behind each individual . In this aspect, this is different from the rescue of weak individuals in the human society.‎ There are many differences between animals and human beings. According to biologist Richard Dawkins, the biggest difference possibly lies in that animals are short of social culture. But here, the culture refers to “ the behaviour pattern having nothing to do with heredity(遗传), but which may be copied and inherited(继承)”.‎ Human beings depend on culture for heritage. As time passes by, the culture has been accumulated to distinguish one group from another. Therefore, the protection of culture is important and necessary.‎ ‎ However, wild animals depend on genes for heritage, and therefore, it is important and necessary to keep natural genes in existence. As long as wild animals can pass genes down, the entire species survive.‎ Therefore, wild animals’ value mostly lies in its gene, and the existence of the species is more important. The individual death cannot be avoided, but the gene may exist forever through the gene bank of the species, keeping the species existent.‎ When we protect wild animal individuals, this is more a measure than a goal. Therefore, the Yellow stone Park has introduced the wolf to control the number of deer and get rid of the old, weak, sick and disabled. Such behavior is beyond imagination among human beings, but in the nature, this is completely normal and reasonable. We often observe wild animals with the judgment that we may have to human beings, ignoring their differences. But if species itself is not in danger, then working hard to protect the individual can do nothing good to the entire species. Of course for other reasons, we still hope to protect these individuals from death, but this does not belong to the narrow sense of animal protection.‎ 1. In the opinion of Richard Dawkins, wild animals are different from human beings because ______.‎ A. they depend on culture for existence in the world B. they have no behavior pattern related to heredity C. they can copy or inherit something from their parents D. they have poorer social culture than human beings 2. According to the text, how should we protect wild animals?‎ A. By protecting every wild animal from death. B. By making their natural genes exist forever.‎ C. By saving weak animal individuals. D. By passing the law to forbid killing wild animals.‎ 3. The author uses the example of the Yellowstone Park in order to show ______.‎ A. protecting wild animal individuals is not a goal B. protecting wild animals is our goal C. how to kill those old, weak, sick and disabled deer D. how to keep the balance between different species 4. The text is mainly developed by ________.‎ A. giving examples B. providing explanation C. making comparisons D. analyzing causes C Do you think that puppet show(木偶戏) are just for children? In some parts of the world, like Indonesia, a puppet show is an activity enjoyed by people of all ages.【来源：全,品…中&高*考+网】‎ At most puppet shows, the audience sits on one side of the screen and the puppeteer (操纵木偶的人) sits on the other. However, at an Indonesian shadow puppet show, the audience can choose which side to sit on. From out front, audience members see shadows of puppets acting out exciting scenes of romance or battle. These people enjoy the fantasy that “real” events are taking place.‎ Behind the scenes, it can be fascinating to see a dalang, or puppeteer, in action. The dalang manipulates puppets made of buffalo hide by moving attached rods(棒) of buffalo horn or bamboo. Each of a puppet’s arms and the main part of its body have their own rods, but its legs are rarely moved on their own.‎ Each puppet has its own voice and its own way of moving. The “good” puppets usually speak calmly and move gracefully.; the “bad” ones have rough voices and move in a funny way. The stories acted out by the puppets are often based on ancient myths or legends. A specially written puppet show might also celebrate a birth, wedding, or harvest. Sometimes a dalang chooses an old story that he thinks is appropriate for the village where the performance will take place. Before the show, he may ask local people about current events in the village and then use the puppet show to illustrate possible solutions to local problems.‎ The audience of a shadow puppet show expects to settle in for a long evening. A show may start in the later afternoon and not end until four o’clock the next morning! Children and adults alike may fall asleep in the middle of a show and wake up hours later to find it still going on. Of course, the dalang must remain alert throughout the show. One dalang remarked,”I have no real sense of time until it’s all over.”‎ 1. The text would be of most interest to readers looking for information about _______.‎ A. forms of entertainment in other cultures B. how to create their own puppet show C. how to make their own puppets D. everyday life in Indonesia 2. How is an Indonesian puppet show different from most other puppet shows?‎ A. A dalang may take a rest during a show.‎ B. People can leave in the middle of a show.‎ C. It is an activity enjoyed by people of all ages.‎ D. The audience can choose to sit on either side of the screen.‎ 3. What can we learn from the fourth paragraph?‎ A. The “good” puppets move in a funny way.‎ B. The dalang attempts to personalize the puppet show for the audience.‎ C. The audience determines the puppets’ voice and way of moving.‎ D. A dalang offers solutions to local problems before the show.‎ D Don’t you just love ice skating every winter? I am sure that since winter is approaching, your skates are set to come out, just waiting to be used. Impress your friends with your new trick on how to ice-skate backwards with the help of these tips.‎ Stand Straight The first thing you need to do is, stand straight. If you feel that you are falling backwards, just put your chin up and slightly bend your knees.‎ Confidence is What you need ‎ The most important step while learning how to skate backwards, is having enough confidence in what you are doing. How can you achieve this? By practice. Just practice rolling backwards down a gentle slope everyday or just by pushing off from a wall or something of that sort. But before you do that, make sure that the place where you are practicing is free from any kind of debris(碎片) because otherwise, you could land up in the hospital due to some accident. While going backwards, just get used to the feeling of moving backwards. One of the important ice skating tips and techniques is that if you feel you are losing your balance, then scissor(做剪式运动) your skates. Keep practicing this till you are confident about it.‎ Maintain Speed Confident now? Great! Now the next step is to maintain your speed. While rolling in a straight line with one skate, with the other try sculling(划桨), that is , keep pushing yourself backwards with an outwards stroke(滑动). Make sure that you put most of your weight on the skate which is moving straight and not the one with which you are sculling. Now , try the same thing using the other foot. Again keep doing this till you are confident enough. ‎ Increase Your Speed Now Once you are confident that you can scull with either foot, the next thing that you have to do is increase your speed. Try some of your own tricks now. Scull with either foot or with both at the same time.‎ Scull And Be Aware While you keep one foot straight, keep sculling with the other. You can do that with both feet at the same time. Concentrate on what you are doing but don’t get so absorbed, that you don’t see where you are going. If you are not watching your back, you might bang(碰撞) against something or someone.‎ 1. Which is the right order of ice-skating backwards?‎ a. Increasing your speed. b. Being able to scull with one foot. ‎ c. Being about to stand straight. d. Trying some different tricks.‎ A.cadb B. cbad C. acbd D. cbda 1. In the last paragraph the author mainly wants to express _______.‎ A. Keeping cautious is as important as skating B. One must be brave to learn to ice-skate backwards C. It’s difficult to concentrate when ice-skating backwards D. It’s a common thing to hit someone when one is ice-skating backwards 2. In order to keep balance when skating backwards you should _______.‎ A. use both your feet to scull B. skate forward first and then backward C. skate in the way that scissors move D. put most of your weight on the skate with which you are sculling 3. The text is mainly to _______‎ A. compare different ways of ice-skating backwards B. offer some advice on ice-skating backwards C. introduce the culture of ice-skating backwards D. explain advantages of ice-skating backwards 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。选项中的两项为多途选项。（注：选E 涂AB ； 选F涂AC； 选G涂AD）‎ ‎ “Smart”Idioms【来源：全,品…中&高*考+网】‎ Today we take a look at the word “smart”. If someone says you are smart, what do they mean? Is it a good thing or something bad? 16 This is because the word smart has many meanings.‎ l That smarts!‎ For example, someone could say you look smart or are dressed smartly. That means they like what you are wearing and your physical appearance. To use a slang expression, they could say, “You look really cool!” But if something smarts, it can be unkind or hurtful, either physically or mentally. If you accidentally trip over a chair and fall down, you might shout, “Ow! That smarts!” Or if a friend says something that hurts your feelings, you can say you are smarting from the hurtful comments. 17 ‎ l Smarting ‎ If you are standing too close to a campfire, you could say your eyes are smarting from the smoke of the fire. Here the word “smarting” means a sharp pain. 18 If someone is smart as whip, they are able to think very quickly.‎ l Street smart and book smart ‎ 19 Some people are considered street smart. They may not have a strong education. But they are good at dealing with people and problems in the real world. Other people might be book smart. This means they have spent many years in school. But they may not be so smart when dealing with people or real-world problems.‎ l Don’t get smart with me!‎ And then there is the definition of smart that means to talk or behave disrespectfully. If you say something disrespectful to your parents, they might say, “Don’t get smart with me!” Here, “smart” means to show a lack of respect by saying something unkind. In fact, a child who has a smart mouth makes rude comments, not smart ones. This definition of smart can also be used as a verb. 20 ‎ A. Do they really mean you are smart?‎ B. People have different attitude toward being smart C. However, different people have different ways of being smart.‎ D. In fact, maybe that person is no longer you friend.‎ E. The answer is not as easy as you might think.‎ F. But the most common meaning of smart is to be intelligent.‎ G. If you smart off to the wrong people, they could hit you in the face.‎ 第二部分: 完形填空 (共 20 小题; 每小题 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。‎ ‎ I have to keep my hand from shaking, thought Mark as he 21 the baseball card.

He cleared his 24 .‎ ‎“Fifty dollars,” the man said. Then he bit his lip. Maybe it was too much to ask, 25 from a boy.‎ Mark felt his head swimming. The baseball card was in 26 condition. It showed the open, friendly face of Honus Wagner, one of the first players 27 into the baseball Hall of Fame.‎ Mark knew the old man did not realize what a 28 he had.

But I would have to remember that I 33 this man for the rest of my life.”‎ The man looked at the boy 34 , and then his heart sank as Mark 35 his head and handed back the card.‎ Mark 36 for a minute, and then he leaned forward. “Look,” he said. “I know a lot about baseball cards. You should take it to an antiques 37 .”‎ The man’s eyes 38 as Mark added, “That card is worth a lot more than $50.

It was such sweet water 41 he had ever tasted. So he filled his leather canteen to bring some back to his teacher.‎ After a four-day journey he presented the water 42 the old man, who took a deep drink, smiled warmly and thanked his student for the sweet water.

Gratitude doesn’t always come naturally. Unfortunately, most children and many adults value only the thing 48 (give) rather than the feeling embodied in it. We should remind 49 (our) and teach our children about the beauty and 50 (pure) of feelings and expressions of gratitude. After all, gifts from the heart are really gifts of the heart.‎ 第四部分：写作（共两节，满分35分）‎ 第一节 短文改错 (共10小题;每小题1分,满分10分)‎ 英语课上,老师要求同桌同学相互修改作文。假设以下短文为你同桌所写，请你对其进行修改。短文中共有10处错误，每句中最多有两处。错误涉及一个单词的增加、删除或修改。‎ 增加：在缺词处加一个漏词符号（/），并在此符号下面写出该加的词。‎ 删除：把多余的词用斜线（）划掉。‎ 修改：在错的词下划一横线，并在该词下面写出修改后的词。‎ 注意：1、每处错误及其修改均仅限一词；‎ 只允许修改10处，多者（从第11处起）不计分。‎ An aging woman had a heart attack.

Living and studying abroad offers high school graduates a different perspective of the world. On a university campus, they are likely to meet people of the same age group from various countries and are exposed to diverse ideas and values.‎ However, going abroad for further study at such a young age does have its problems. For instance, studying abroad alone, with no one to turn to, they may feel lonely and helpless, when meeting difficulty. Besides, tuition fees for overseas students are relatively high and perhaps beyond the reach of most families financially.‎ It is my view that although going abroad is expensive and perhaps painful, the payoff is worthwhile. In addition to knowledge, overseas students can gain precious experience, which is beneficial to the growth of young people.‎
