With a few cans of house paint found under the kitchen sink, he painted his first mural（壁画），dinosaurs, on the headboard of his parents’ bed.‎ Today you never know where you might find Wyland, but chances are that you will have to look up. This painter, sculptor, and muralist now paints giant-sized murals of sea animals on much larger canvases（画布）: walls and ceilings of hotels and other buildings, and even the outside of a stadium.‎ His project, the Whaling Walls, began in 1981 when Wyland painted a life-sized mural of a gray whale（鲸） and her baby on the side of a hotel in Laguna Beach, California. His goal was to paint one hundred whaling walls, which has been achieved. Painting so many murals would be a huge project for any artist, but the size of these murals is what has really made this a giant task.‎ How does Wyland go about creating such huge lifelike murals? Wyland says he relies on what he calls his “mind’s eye”. He explains that through his mind’s eye he can look at a blank canvas and form a picture of the finished mural in his mind.‎ To cover such large areas, Wyland, who is afraid of heights, depends on scaffolding（脚手架） to help him move around and produce his murals. But unlike most artists who can step back to survey their work, Wyland has to rely mostly on his memory.‎ For accuracy in his artwork, Wyland spends as much time underwater as he does painting. He dives to study his subjects and learn more about them in their natural environment. Through his artwork, Wyland hopes to inspire people to care more about our oceans and to respect and protect the life within them. The whales he works so hard to protect may not know it, but Wyland might just be the best friend a whale could have.‎ ‎24. Where did Wyland paint his first mural?‎ A. In a hotel. B. In the open air. ‎ C. In his parents’ bedroom. D. In the kitchen of his home.‎ ‎25. What is Wyland’s “mind’s eye”?‎ A. His eyesight. B. His memory. C. His enthusiasm. D. His ‎ imagination.‎ ‎26. What does the underlined word “it” in the last paragraph refer to?‎ A. Wyland may be whale’s best friend. B. Wyland is good at painting whales.‎ C. Wyland may know whales very well. D. Wyland tries his best to protect the ocean.‎ ‎27. What is the best title for the text?‎ A. 100 Whaling Walls B. The Prince of Whale C. Look up, Enjoy the Murals D. Never Stop, Follow Your Dream C Tea, the most typical English drink, became famous in Britain because of the influence of a foreign princess, Catherine of Braganza, the queen of Charles II. As a lover of tea since her childhood in Portugal, she brought tea-drinking to the English royal court and set a trend for the beverage in the 17th century. The fashion soon spread beyond the circle of the noblemen to the middle classes, and tea became a popular drink at the London coffee houses where people met to do business and discuss events of the day. Many employers served a cup of tea to their workers in the middle of the morning, thus inventing a lasting British institution, the “tea break”. However, drinking tea in social settings outside the workplace was beyond the means of the majority of British people. It came with a high price tag and tea was taxed as well. ‎ ‎ Around 1800, the seventh Duchess of Bedford, Anne Maria, began the popular practice of “afternoon tea”, a ceremony taking place at about four o’clock. Until then, people did not usually eat or drink anything between lunch and dinner. At approximately the same time, the Earl of Sandwich popularized a new way of eating bread—in thin slices, with something like jam or cucumbers between them. Before long, a small meal at the end of the afternoon, involving tea and sandwiches, had become part of the British way of life. ‎ ‎ As tea became much cheaper during the 19th century, its popularity spread right through all corners of the British society. Thus, tea became Britain’s favorite drink. ‎ In working-class households, it was served with the main meal of the day, eaten when workers returned home after a day’s labor. This meal has become known as “high tea”. Today, tea can be drunk at any time of the day, and accounts for over two-fifths of all drinks consumed in Britain—with the exception of water. ‎ ‎28. What is mainly discussed about tea in the text?‎ A. Its development in Britain. B. Its traditional ways of drinking. ‎ C. Its influence around the world. D. Its popularity in Europe. ‎ ‎29. What does the underlined words “the beverage” probably refer to?‎ A. Tea drinking. B. A small meal. C. A way of eating bread. D. A choice of drinks. ‎ ‎30. Why was tea unable to be accepted as a common drink in Britain in the 17th century?‎ A. It was merely served in London. B. It was taxed as an alcoholic drink. ‎ C. It was forbidden in business settings. D. It was too expensive for most people. ‎ ‎31. How is the text organized?‎ A. By cause and effect. B. By comparison. C. In time order. D. In frequency order. ‎ D It is quite reasonable to blame traffic jams, the cost of gas and the great speed of modern life, but manners on the road are becoming horrible. Everybody knows that the nicest man would become fierce tigers behind the wheel. It is all right to have a tiger in a cage, but to have one in the driver’s seat is another matter.‎ Road politeness is not only good manners, but a good sense. It takes the most cool-headed drivers great patience to give up the desire to beat back when forced to face rude driving. On the other hand, a little politeness goes a long way towards reducing the possibility of quarrelling and fighting. A friendly nod or a wave of thanks in answer to an act of politeness helps to create an atmosphere of good will and becomes so necessary in modern traffic conditions. But such behavior of politeness ‎ is by no means enough. Many drivers nowadays don’t even seem able to recognize politeness when they see it.‎ However, misplaced politeness can also be dangerous. A typical example is the driver who waves a child crossing the street at a wrong place into the path of oncoming cars that may not be able to stop in time. The same goes for encouraging old ladies to cross the road wherever and whenever they want to.‎ An experienced driver, whose manners are faultless, told me it would help if drivers learnt to correctly join in a traffic stream without causing total blockages that give rise to unpleasant feelings. Unfortunately, modern drivers can’t even learn to drive, let alone master the roadmanship（公路驾车技能）. Years ago, experts warned us that the fast increase of the car ownership would demand more give-and-take（互谅互让）from all road users. It is high time for all of us to take this message to heart.‎ ‎32. The passage mainly talks about _________.‎ A. traffic jams B. good manners C. road politeness D. modern drivers ‎33. Troubles on the road are often caused by _________.‎ A. traffic jams B. the behavior of the drivers C. the great speed of modern life D. terrible road conditions ‎34. According to the writer, a good driver should _________.‎ A. encourage children to cross the road whenever they want to ‎ B. beat back when forced to face rude driving C. be able to recognize politeness when he sees it ‎ D. join in a traffic stream quickly however other people feel ‎35. It is not always right for drivers to _________.‎ A. master the roadmanship ‎ B. neglect politeness when they see it C. give a friendly nod in answer to an act of politeness D. encourage old ladies to cross the road whenever and wherever they want to 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。‎ Whether you’re a child, teenager, young adult or are middle-aged, respect for your parents is an important value. Your parents are the people who raised you, devoting time, energy and money to your development. 36 No matter your age, there are 5 ways to show respect.‎ ‎● Respect their belongings. ‎ One important way to show respect is to pay respect to the things important to your parents. For younger children, this may mean not touching jewelry or other valuable things. For grown children, respect may mean returning a borrowed tool in good condition and on time. Lack of respect for a parent’s belongings is not acceptable for anyone. 37 And never borrow things without asking first.‎ ‎● Punctuality.‎ ‎ 38 Therefore, always be on time. For teenagers, showing up on time means coming home by curfew（宵禁）. Adult children should show up on time for family dinners or events, or to pick a parent up for a medical appointment. Call if you’re going to be late because parents worry about children, no matter their age.‎ ‎● 39 ‎ Remembering birthdays, anniversaries and other special days is a sign that you honor your parents. Make plans to take them to lunch or dinner or bake a cake or cookies. Most parents don’t expect expensive gifts, but a handmade gift is always appreciated. A phone call from a grown child who lives too far for a visit is a sign of respect.‎ ‎● Be kind.‎ Kind words and devotion are simple ways to show respect. Tell your parents you love them. Listen and allow your parents to speak without interruption. Show a sincere interest in what your parents have to say. Be patient with your parents and don’t rush them. Never talk back or be rude or disrespectful. Acknowledge your parents’ achievements. 40 ‎ A. Be a good listener. ‎ B. Celebrate with them.‎ C. Lateness stands for a lack of respect. ‎ D. Treat your parents the way you would like to be treated.‎ E. And they love you unconditionally throughout your life.‎ F. Being respectful helps build positive relationships with others.‎ G. Don’t take advantage of your parents’ kindness and generosity.‎ 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。‎ As a young man, Al was a skilled artist, a potter（陶工）with a wife and 41 fine sons.
