B Just months after taking a first-aid course, Apryl Hammett came across a road traffic accident and jumped straight in to help. Apryl, who learned first aid for her voluntary role as a scout（童子军）leader, was driving through Essex with her husband and two children when a striking scene occurred before them. She recalled: “We could see a woman had been hit by a car and was lying by the roadside. Fortunately, a passing doctor had already stopped and was treating her.” Apryl didn’t hesitate: “I asked my husband to speak to the driver, who was obviously upset, and then raced over to help.” It was immediately clear that the woman was badly injured. Apryl held her head and spoke softly, keeping her calm and still while the doctor checked for injuries. The scout leader said: “She was bleeding quite heavily from a head wound, which previously might have frightened me. But I remembered the Red Cross trainer had explained head wounds can bleed a lot.” Fortunately the paramedics（医护人员）arrived quickly, but Apryl continued to comfort the injured woman. Altogether, she helped out for about half an hour until it became clear the situation was in hand. She said: “Both the doctor and the paramedics thanked me for being so helpful. And later, I was relieved to hear the woman was in a stable condition.” Looking back, Apryl said: “I’m sure I’d have stopped to help even without my training, but having those skills meant I was much more confident and effective. I felt very calm, simply because I knew what to do.” Now the Chelmsford mother-of two wants to encourage more people in her area to equip themselves with first-aid skills. And there was another clear benefit from her heroics. She explained: “I’m really glad my kids saw me responding. It’ll help them get the message about the importance of first aid.” 24. According to the text, Apryl Hammett ________. A. knocked a woman down B. is talking a first aid course C. is a first-aid trainer for the Scouts D. provided help in a traffic accident 25. Seeing the woman bleeding heavily, Apryl Hammett ________. A. had no idea what to do B. was terribly frightened C. tried to keep her calm and still D. helped the doctor check the wound 26. Apryl Hammett hoped that ________. A. more people would recognize the importance of first aid B. people could learn some lessons from their experiences C. her kids could be of some help in the accident D. her kids would join the Scouts some day 27. Which of the following can best describe Apryl Hammett? A. Strict but brave B. Caring and generous C. Proud but determined D. Warm-hearted and helpful C The British-and especially the English-are bad at complaining. Because of British politeness rules, according to which confrontations should be avoided, people either just do not complain or sometimes bottle it up and then explode in an inappropriate outpouring of aggressive complaints. In fact, there is a TV programme which shows the British in typical situations where they would be perfectly justified in complaining but they don’t. In one scene, a woman reads a newspaper over people’s shoulders and the people say nothing or look embarrassed. The British are also well-known for putting up with bad service everywhere from restaurants to airports and railway stations because the standard rules of behaviour say that it is bad to draw attention to yourself. This is why, when you travel on the Tube in London and there is yet another delay, the passengers will look at each other, sigh, smile wearily and raise their eyes to heaven. They might even say, ‘Huh! Typical’ in a resigned tone of voice that says that there’s nothing that can be done about it. When complaints are made, they are made in an apologetic or a humorous tone of voice. In France, on the other hand, angry passengers might riot（闹事）and burn down the subway station if they had to put up with the poor service that the London Underground provides. Americans and other Europeans, who are much more direct and in-your-face than the British, often wonder why British people always say ‘sorry’ or ‘excuse me’ when they complain. “It’s like they’re apologizing for something that isn’t their fault,” they say. They are missing the point. British people are not really sorry-it is because the word ‘sorry’ actually works as a distancing mechanism. This is important in terms of negative politeness and not drawing attention to yourself. If you do not say ‘sorry’ or use other distancing words like ‘could’, ‘would’, ‘might’, ‘possibly’ and so on, you will be seen as rude. 28. What does the underlined part “bottle it up” in Paragraph 1 mean? A. Put something into bottles. B. Not do anything dangerous. C. Cause problems by hesitating. D. Not allow emotions to be seen. 29. The French tend to ________. A. tolerate bad service B. enjoy taking the subway C. make a complaint humorously D. express their dissatisfaction directly 30. When the British say “sorry”, they actually want to ________. A. try not to be rude B. apologize sincerely C. show their feelings directly D. draw attention to themselves 31. Which can be the best title for the text? A. How to complain B. Complaining politely C. Poor service in Britain D. Politeness rules across the world D German company DHL recently announced it is starting a new drone（无人驾驶飞 机 ） delivery service to get “urgently needed goods,” such as life-saving medicines, to certain remote locations. The company’s plan is to use small, parcel-carrying drones to deliver medicines and emergency supplies to Juist, an island in Germany’s North Sea, where other delivery options (such as ferries or trains) aren’t always available. The drone service is a continuation of DHL’s “parcelcopter research project,” which was launched in December 2013. But the DHL drones have changed significantly since their maiden（初次的） flight, DHL officials said in a statement. For one thing, they’ve been improved to undergo the high winds and rain that they may face over the North Sea. For another, the parcelcopter 2.0 can reach altitudes of 164 feet and can fly as fast as 40 miles per hour. The drone is also capable of flying for extended periods of time-about 45 minutes before needing to be recharged-enabling it to make the roughly 7.5-mile journey to Juist. The drone can carry loads of up to 2.6 pounds (1.2 kilograms). The drone itself weighs 11 pounds (5kg). Thanks to a new autopilot feature, the maiden flight of the new and improved drones will be completely automated, even during takeoff and landing. However, drone pilots will be standing by at a mobile ground station in Norddeich, on the coast of mainland Germany, just in case something goes wrong. Once the drones land at Juist, the parcels will be delivered to their recipients（收件人）by a human courier（急件递送者）. For now, the company will be using the drones only when other delivery options aren’t available, and no plans are currently in the works to incorporate the parcelcopters into normal day-to-day deliveries, according to company officials. 32. To meet what requirement will DHL probably use the drones? A. A ton of life necessities need to be sent to a village. B. An important parcel needs to be sent to a man in Juist. C. Some medicines are urgently needed in the city hospital. D. A family needs to go to Juist when ferries aren’t available. 33. What is Paragraph 3 mainly about? A. The DHL drones’ first flight. B. The purpose of the DHL drones. C. The disadvantages of the DHL drones. D. The improvements on the initial DHL drones. 34. The new drone ________. A. will be much lighter B. can deliver much heavier parcels C. can send parcels directly to recipients D. will be fully automatic during the whole flight 35. What can we infer from the text? A. The drones have been in use since December 2013. B. The drones won’t be widely used in the near future. C. The drones will replace human couriers in the future. D. The drones will replace other delivery options soon. 第二节 阅读填空（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住选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 What a headache！ Up to 75 percent of teens have at least one headache a month.

The Solution: 37 And try carrying a box of raisins（葡萄干）or a small bag of nuts in your backpack for emergencies.

The Solution: 39 If you do start to tense up, take a short break and gently move your head from side to side and roll your shoulders in small circles to relieve tightness. The Cause: Tomorrow’s Algebra Final Stress, whether over a school assignment or a fight with your best friend, has been linked to headaches, but scientists aren’t sure which comes first. 40 The Solution: Focus on fitness.

I would like to work as a volunteer for the Summer Youth Olympic Games. I am a boy of 16, studying at high school now. Due to the fact that I’m ready to help others whenever it is needed, I believe being a volunteer will be a good chance for me to make a contribution to society. Therefore, I can’t wait to write this application letter. The reasons why I think I’m qualified are as follows. First and foremost, I speak English so fluently that I have no problem communicating with English-speakers, which is one of my strengths. What’s more, not only do I like sports but also I know the city well, making it easy for me to assist others. Besides, as for my personality, I am easy-going and get along well with others easily, which are especially useful for a volunteer. In conclusion, I believe I can do a good job for the Games. If I’m lucky enough to be accepted, I promise to offer the best service possible to the people at the Games. Hopefully, you can take my request into consideration. I’m looking forward to your early reply. Yours faithfully, Li Hua
