Being poor is a terrible feeling when your 3-year-old finishes his meal and says: “Can I have some more bread and jam please, Mummy?” And you break down in tears, because you don’t know how to tell him that there is no more food.‎ ‎ With ￡6, I went to the supermarket, picked up some food and started to cook at home. It was time for me to make a change and get back on my feet. I began to write a series of articles for the website named Hunger Hurt in July 2011.‎ A few months later, local food bank gave me some help-- with some free vegetables every month, which made my life a little easier. I began to write recipes， posting them on my blog. To my surprise, families, students and those poor people told me how much it helped to see healthy recipes made from affordable supermarket vegetables.‎ My Life took unexpected turns. I was invited to give a speech on food, interviewed for an Oxfam report on food banks and asked to write a cookery book.‎ When I got the money from the book, for the first night in almost two years, I went to bed without worrying. Now, I have a well-paid job and a beautiful home, and I’ll never forget the days when I worked hard for a good life.‎ ‎21.The writer started to cook because _______.‎ A．the food at the supermarket was unhealthy B．she was advised to do so by someone C．she had to feed themselves in a cheap way ‎ D．her son preferred home-cooked food ‎22.According to the text, the food bank _______.‎ A．helps sell the food in supermarkets B．brings people together who care about food waste C．gives out food to those people who are in need ‎ D．write healthy recipes to food lovers around the world ‎23.

Wrong．Study after study shows that regular walking can help you lose weight and reduce your risk of heart disease．‎ The study published in Diabetes Research and Clinical Practice shows that ‎ the blood pressure of the overweight men being tested improved and the amount of body fat greatly decreased．‎ That’s good news, because walking has now become the most popular fitness activity in the United States．Convenient, simple, and gentle on the joints, walking is perhaps the easiest form of exercise to maintain．According to a survey, four out of five women who start a walking program continue to walk, while half of women who attempt other types of aerobic exercise(有氧运动), such as swimming, drop out during the first few months．‎ Here are some basics for walking exercise．‎ Walk at a pace that makes you breathe heavily, but still able to talk．‎ Your goal, first and foremost, is to walk five days a week, 30 minutes a walk．Do that, and you are getting the base-level amount of exercise that research says should maintain your health and vigor(精力)．‎ Walk for as long as you are comfortable the first week, even if it is just to your mailbox and back．Each following week, increase that amount by no more than 10 percent．‎ Start every walk with five minutes of easy-paced walking, about the same pace at which you do shopping, to get your body warmed up．Then, cool down at the end of each walk with another five minutes of easy-paced walking．This allows your heart rate to gradually speed up and slow down．‎ ‎25. The survey mentioned in Paragraph 3 shows that ________．‎ A. 80％ of the women surveyed are walking as a means of exercise B. 50％ of the women surveyed want to swim as a means of exercise C. walking is more easily maintained than other types of aerobic exercise D. the effect of walking is as good as that of other types of aerobic exercise ‎26.

What is the purpose of the easy-paced walking in every walk?‎ A. To help reduce your blood pressure．‎ B. To help reduce your risk of heart disease．‎ C. To help your body lose fat．‎ D. To help your heart rate change gradually．‎ ‎28. What would be the best title for the passage?‎ A. How to Keep Healthy?‎ B. Walking for Exercise C. Different Ways of Exercise D. Is Walking a Type of Exercise?‎ C The tradition of having a pine tree as a Christmas Tree is believed to come from Germany. Since the medieval time, lighting a candle on a tree is common to welcome guests. Such practice has evolved into the Christmas celebration.‎ The formal Christmas Tree was introduced to England about 100 years ago when Queen Victoria married German Albert. The evidence of Victoria's love for Albert is not only expressed through inheriting the German tradition of having a Christmas Tree but also through the gold Albert Statues that Victoria had ordered to build for Albert, standing in many places in London. In America, the Christmas Tree idea was brought by German immigrants too.‎ The custom of sending Christmas cards was initiated in England around 1850. The first cards were decorated with elaborate designs of flowers, birds and landscapes.‎ As for Saint Nicholas, or Santa Claus, the story goes back to the third century.‎ Legend has it, Saint Nicholas dedicated all his life to helping mankind, especially children. He died on December 6, which marks the Saint Nicholas Day in many European countries and that was when gifts were given to children. Saint Nicholas bears many different names, such as Father Christmas in the UK, San Nicolas in the Netherlands, Le Pere Noel in France, and Kriss Kringle in Germany.‎ He also arrives on different dates to deliver presents to children in different countries, typically from chimneys. The chimney story was this: Santa flew over house ‎ tops in a sleigh, he dropped coins by accident and they landed in some stockings hanging next to the fireplace to dry. From then on, red stockings were hung by the chimney in hopes that Santa would fill them with gifts.‎ ‎29. The passage is most probably taken from ______.‎ A. a history book B. a geography book C. a folk story book D. a book on culture ‎30. Which of the following descriptions about Santa Clause is NOT right according to the passage?‎ A. In the UK, Santa Claus is Father Christmas.‎ B. Santa Claus usually delivers presents to children through chimneys.‎ C. Santa Claus became known to the British about 170 years ago.‎ D. Santa Claus was devoted to helping mankind.‎ ‎31. We can infer from the passage that ______.‎ A. England is the birthplace of pine trees B. Santa Claus was very popular among children C. it was the Germans who brought the Christmas tree to the United states D. Santa Claus is someone only existing in people’s imagination D It is often easy to feel overwhelmed (受打击的)in the face of species loss and habitat destruction. The problem is large and complex, and it's natural for individuals to feel powerless. Yet, everything you do is vitally important. It may not seem to amount to much in the grand scheme of things, but your seemingly small actions, added together, can make a big difference. Here are some things you can do:‎ Protect Wildlife Habitat. Perhaps the greatest threat to many species is the widespread destruction of habitats. Farming, development, and cutting down of forests all result in loss of wildlife habitats. In areas where rare species live, habitat destruction can quickly force a species to extinction. By protecting habitat, entire communities of animals can also be protected together. Parks, reserves, and other protected lands are too often the only places left untouched by habitat destruction.‎ Reduce the threat of invasive (入侵的) species. The spread of non-native species ‎ has greatly reduced native populations around the world. Invasive species compete with native species for resources and habitats. They can even prey on native species directly, greatly reducing their population. one way to reduce the threat of invasive species is to grow native plants in your garden and to welcome native animals into your yard.‎ Place bird-shaped paper on your windows. It is estimated that as many as one billion birds in the United States die each year due to collisions with windows. You can help reduce the number of collisions simply by placing bird-shaped paper on your windows. Other simple steps you can take are to draw the shades and curtains during brightest parts of the day, and put screens on the outside of the windows.‎ Slow down when driving. Many native animals live in developed areas, in other words, close to humans. Roads are a particularly big danger to them: animals are at risk every time they try to cross. So when you’re out and about, slow down, and keep an eye out for wildlife.‎ ‎32. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?‎ A. How Do Animals Become Extinct?‎ B. The Importance of Protecting Wildlife.‎ C. What Can We Do to Protect Wild life?‎ D. New Ways of Saving Endangered Animals.‎ ‎33. The main idea of the second paragraph is ______.‎ A. more parks and reserves should be built B. we should keep wildlife habitats from destruction C. conditions of parks and reserves have been improved D. parks and reserves are best ways of protecting ‎34. People are advised to put bird-shaped paper on their windows to ______.‎ A. beautify their houses B. protect the windows from birds C. attract more birds to live nearby D. stop birds from hitting windows by mistake ‎35. The underlined phrase “prey on” in paragraph 3 probably means “_____”‎ A. drive away B. live with C. hunt down D. fight with 第二节 （共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）‎ The Art of Slow Reading If you are reading this article in print, chances are that you will only get through half of what I have written. And if you are reading this online, you may not even finish a fifth. ___36__ They suggest that many of us no longer have the concentration to read articles through to their conclusion.‎ So are we getting stupider? Actually, our online habits are damaging the mental power we need to process and understand textual information. Round-the-clock news makes us read from one article to the next without necessarily engaging fully with any of the content. Our reading is frequently stopped by the noise of the latest email and we are now absorbing short bursts of words on Twitter and Facebook more regularly than longer texts. ___37___ But we are gradually forgetting how to sit back, think carefully, and relate all the facts to each other.‎ ‎___38___ A desperate bunch of academics want us to take our time while reading, and re-reading. They ask us to switch off our computers every so often and rediscover both the joy of personal engagement with printed texts, and the ability to process them fully. What’s to be done then? Most slow readers realize that total rejection of the web is extremely unrealistic. They feel that getaway from technology for a while is the answer. ___39___‎ Personally, I’m not sure whether I could ever go offline for long. Even while writing this article, I am switching constantly between sites, skimming too often, absorbing too little. Internet reading has become too rooted in my daily life for me to change. I read essays and articles not in hard copy but as PDFs. I suspect that many readers are in a similar position. ___40___ You can download a computer application called Freedom, which allows you to read in peace by cutting off your Internet connection. Or if you want to avoid being disturbed by the Internet, you could always download offline reader Instapaper for your iPhone. If you’re still reading my article, that is slow reading.‎ A. The Internet is probably part of the problem.‎ B. Now some campaigns are advocating slow reading.‎ C. But if you just occasionally want to read more slowly, help is at hand.‎ D. These are the two findings from the recent research projects.‎ E. Because of the Internet, we have become very good at collecting information.‎ F. Slow reading can help connect a reader to neighborhood and become popular.‎ G. Some of them have suggested turning their computers off for one day a week.‎ 第三部分　语言知识运用(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)‎ ‎ 阅读下面的短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，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。‎ Yesterday, our teacher asked us when people could be considered old.
