At the age of 15, driven by the British from his hometown, he got onto a ship secretly. It was leaving for the American colonies (殖民地). The ship took him to Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. As Barry stepped off the ship, he had no idea that he would become one of America’s important historical figures.‎ ‎       Barry grew to be over six feet tall. During his time as a sea captain, he set a model for the new navy (海军). He was well-known for his bravery and fairness. He had strict rules for his men, including no alcohol on the ship. Of Barry, historian John Frost, in his ‎ ‎1844 American Naval Biography wrote, “Barry’s operations were not surpassed (超越) during the war.”‎ ‎       When the American War of Independence began, Barry discovered a secret British plan. The British wanted to block the Delaware River and catch every ship sailing to or from Philadelphia. The idea was to starve the American colonists. Barry worked quickly to change merchant ships (商船) into warships. Then he fought the British from a tiny ship. He managed to keep them from getting control of the Delaware River. After his ship sank, he set up his guns on shore. From there he joined in the battles of Trenton and Princeton. Then Barry commanded the American warship Lexington and caught the Prince Edward, the first British ship taken in the war.‎ ‎       After the war ended, Barry suggested to the U.S. government that it should have a standing navy. It was the best way to protect its long coastline. He was made captain of the first U.S. Navy in 1794. He personally trained the men. Barry left no children when he died in 1803. However, he is called a father. He is the “Father of the American Navy.”‎ ‎24. John Barry left for the United States _____.‎ A. because he had no choice B. because he hated living in Britain C. in the hope of building a new navy D. in expectation of visiting Philadelphia ‎25. The second paragraph is written in a tone of _____.‎ A. calmness                  B. anger C. praise                       D. regret ‎26. It can be inferred from the text that the Delaware River _____.‎ A. is a terribly dangerous river ‎ B. is far away from Philadelphia C. had been under the control of the British ‎ D. had been an important waterway to transport goods ‎27. After the American War of Independence, John Barry _____.‎ A. decided to take a good rest B. commanded the Lexington C. often stood along the coastline of the U.S.‎ D. still involved himself in military decisions C Many cities and towns have laws that require people to recycle paper and plastics. Now some state and local governments have passed laws that require citizens to recycle their food waste as well. California and Vermont have statewide laws about recycling food waste that apply to businesses and homes. The process of recycling food waste and turning it into usable soil is called composting (堆制肥料).‎ Food waste that can be composted includes fruit and vegetable peels, coffee grounds, tea bags, and eggshells. Garden waste such as stems and leaves can also be composted. Meat, fish, and dairy food waste cannot be recycled.‎ According to environmental groups, composting reduces the amount of trash going into landfills (垃圾填埋地), and composted waste holds a wide range of nutrients. When compost is added to the soil in gardens and fields, it helps crops grow. ‎ Reducing the amount of waste that goes into landfills is one reason why cities and states are passing food-waste recycling laws. “Our landfills are far from enough for the creation of new ones is shrinking.” Renee Crowley, a project manager at the Lower East Side Ecology Center in New York City, told TFK.‎ Officials in Seattle, Washington, say that food waste makes up 30% of the trash going into landfills, and they are looking to reduce that percentage. That city has a law requiring people to recycle food waste. It is banned (禁止) from all garbage. There is a fine for people who put it into regular garbage.‎ Crowley points out that even in cities where food recycling is not a law, there are often places where citizens can drop off their food waste for composting. Many schools and colleges have also started composting programs.‎ Those who are against food-recycling laws say that the composting process is costly. In addition, it can be difficult for people who live in apartments to store their waste because they don’t have access to outside storage bins. Patti Ferguson from Orange County, California, told her local newspaper that she thought an indoor container containing food waste would get smelly.‎ ‎28. What do we know about composting from the text?‎ A. Not all food waste can be reused. B. It is cheap to compost food waste.‎ C. Not all soil can be composted. D. It is usually processed in empty landfills.‎ ‎29. What is the third paragraph mainly about?‎ A. Ways of keeping nutrients in the soil. B. Ways of reducing the amount of trash.‎ C. Examples of different useful nutrients. D. Benefits of recycling food waste.‎ ‎30. In Seattle, throwing food waste into garbage is _____.‎ A. acceptable   B. shameful C. required    D. illegal ‎31. Patti Ferguson’s attitude towards food-recycling laws is probably _____.‎ A. thankful    B. negative C. uncaring   D. supportive D In a class this past December, after I wrote some directions on the board for students about their final examination, one young woman quickly took a picture of the ‎ board using her smart phone. When I looked in her direction, she apologized, “Sorry. Was it wrong to take a picture?”‎ ‎“I can’t read my own handwriting，” the young woman explained. “It’s best if I take a picture of your writing so I can understand the notes.”‎ That remark started a class-wide discussion about taking a picture instead of taking notes. For those in the photo-taking camp, motivations extended beyond their inability to comprehend their own handwriting. Some took pictures of notes because they knew their phone was a safe place to store material. They might lose paper, they reasoned, but they wouldn’t lose their phones. Some took photos because they wanted to record exactly the manner in which I had noted information on the board. Others told me that during class they liked to be able to listen to the discussion attentively. ‎ Yet the use of cameras as note takers, though it may be convenient, does raise significant questions for the classroom. Is a picture an effective replacement for the process of note-taking?‎ Instructors encourage students to take notes because the act of doing so is more than merely recording necessary information—it helps prepare the way for understanding. Encouraging students to take notes may be an old-fashioned instructional method, but just because a method has a long history doesn’t mean it’s out of date. Writing things down engages a student’s brain in listening, visual, and kinesthetic(触觉的) learning—a view supported by a longstanding research. The act of writing down information enables a person to begin committing it to memory, and to process and combine it, establishing the building blocks of learning new concepts. ‎ Taking a picture does indeed record the information, but it deletes some of the necessary mental engagement that taking notes employs. So can the two be equally effective?‎ I’m not sure how to measure the effectiveness of either method. For now, I allow students to take notes however they see fit—handwritten or photographed—because I figure that some notes, no matter the method of note-taking, are better than none. ‎ ‎32. The woman apologized in the class because she ______. ‎ A. took a picture of the board B. missed the teachers’ directions C. had the bad handwriting D. disturbed other students’ learning ‎33. Students refuse to take notes by hand because ______. ‎ A. they are unable to take notes B. they are more likely to lose notes C. they are interested in using their phones D. they have a good memory of teachers’ instructions ‎34.According to the passage, taking notes by hand ______. ‎ A. requires students to think independently B. is unsuitable for students to learn new ideas C. helps students actively participate in learning D. proves to be an old and useless learning method ‎35.What’s the author’s opinion toward taking notes by phones?‎ A. Supportive. B. Neutral. ‎ C. Doubtful. D. Disapproving.‎ 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。选项中有两项为多于选项。‎ How to listen in English exams ‎    Listening is an important but difficult part for middle school students in English exams. The following suggestions may benefit you a lot.‎ Relax yourself.‎ ‎    Before listening, it's necessary to have a peaceful state of mind. 36  If that doesn't work, drinking some water or washing your face with cold water may help you to some extent.‎ ‎    37 ‎ ‎    As soon as the listening starts, focus on it without thinking about anything else. While listening, you can also recall(回想）the related knowledge in common with the material concerned, such as the vocabulary about the subject or topic, which is beneficial to your better understanding.‎ ‎    Grasp the main idea.‎ Sometimes the monologue, dialogue or conversation you're listening to is a little bit longer than you expect. And it's normal that some unnecessary information is included. However, you don't need to understand it completely. 38 ‎ ‎    Ignore the new words.‎ ‎    Without doubt, there usually exist unfamiliar words in listening materials. In fact, it's almost impossible for you to know or understand all the words in the listening material sometimes. 39  It's mistaken to waste much time on figuring them out while listening.‎ ‎    Develop the habit of taking notes.‎ ‎    In the course of listening, it's a good habit to write down the content and leave out the unimportant details. 40  By taking notes, we can remind ourselves of the key points.‎ A. Concentrate on listening.‎ B. The more words you memorize, the better it is.‎ C. Feeling nervous or worried is harmful and unnecessary.[来源:学科网ZXXK]‎ D. What you need to do is turn a deaf ear to the new words.‎ E. Make a list of what you think is important while listening.‎ F. Instead, just pay attention to the key points and general ideas.‎ G.

They provide a place for people to 41 and play sports, as well as a shelter from the 42 environment of a city. What people often forget is that parks also provide considerable 43 benefits.‎ One benefit of parks is that plants absorb carbon dioxide and produce oxygen. Parks also make cities 44 . Scientists have long noted what is called the Urban Heat Island Effect: building 45 such as metal, concrete, and asphalt (沥青) absorb much more of the sun’s heat and release it much more 46 than trees and grass. 47 city landscapes contain so many of these building materials, cities are 48 warmer than surrounding rural areas. Parks and other green spaces can help to 49 the Urban Heat Island Effect. 50 , many cities cannot easily create more parks because most 51 is already being used for buildings, roads, and parking lots.‎ However, cities could 52 many of the positive effects of parks by encouraging citizens to 53 another type of green space: rooftop (屋顶) gardens. Some rooftop gardens are very complex and require a large investment, but others are 54 container gardens that anyone can create with a few hundred dollars and a few hours of work.‎ Like parks, rooftop gardens help to 55 carbon dioxide in the air with oxygen. They also help to lessen the Urban Heat Island Effect, which can save people 56 .‎ In the summer, rooftop gardens 57 buildings absorbing heat from the sun, which can obviously reduce cooling bills. In the winter, gardens help hold in the heat that materials like brick and concrete send out so quickly, leading to 58 on heating bills. Rooftop vegetable can also provide fresh food for city people, making their diets 59 . Rooftop gardens are not only something everyone can enjoy, they are also a 60 environmental investment.‎ 41. A. hide B. relax C. live D. wait 42. A. old B. noisy C. clean D. social 43. A. medical B. technical C. traditional D. environmental 41. A. safer B. newer C. cooler D. greater 42. A. sites B. costs C. materials D. companies 43. A. quickly B. gently C. differently D. normally 44. A. Although B. Unless C. Before D. Because 45. A. hardly B. suddenly C. usually D. comfortably 46.
