No students were harmed, but the main building was completely destroyed, as well as the nearby dorms.‎ Before you start trying to ask when this horrible act took place on U. S.‎ soil, I should mention that this attack didn’t happen in reality, rather in my daughter’s carefully constructed Minecraft world. During an online journey with a few friends, a stranger came to her school and bombed the school she had carefully built. In a minute, her school was ruined. Sure, no actual property(财产) was damaged. But the emotional pain she felt was very much real. She thought this was a form of terrorism.‎ I shared this act of absurd online violence on my Facebook page, and fellow parents with Minecraft-loving children were just as shocked as I was. I had thought this was a unique experience, and my daughter was just unlucky that this happened to her. But, as it turned out, she was far from alone. The acts were performed by computer bullies(暴徒) known as “griefers”. The platform that my daughter was playing was the Minecraft: Pocket Edition(PE)version, which is popular with younger players. While she once only played in creative mode(模式), she began to play in the multi-player mode so that she and a few friends from school could build and create together. That multi-player choice made it possible for a stranger, one of these “griefers”, to do damage.‎ It was a painful lesson for my daughter that dangers happened suddenly. She understood we have to protect ourselves from bad people in the real world. Still, there was some goodness that came out of the ruins. Many fellow players of hers took the time to help her rebuild her school, which has been set up again. She is moved. Also, this experience opened her eyes.‎ ‎24. What was the result of the daughter’s school being blown up?‎ A. All the buildings but the dorms were ruined.‎ B. Many students were seriously injured.‎ C. Money needed to be seriously injured.‎ D. The author’s daughter felt hurt a lot.‎ ‎25. Before talking to other parents about the attack the author had thought that________.‎ A. her daughter should be blamed for it.‎ B. this attack was just a rare incident.‎ C. danger happened all of a sudden on the Internet.‎ D. her daughter was too lonely.‎ ‎26. Which of the following is NOT true about the “griefers”?‎ A. They can help players build and create a new world.‎ B. They are performed by computer bullies.‎ C. They are likely to cause damage in the multi-player mode.‎ D. They disturb and cause sadness to game players.‎ ‎27. What did her daughter do after the incident?‎ A. Quit playing Minecraft.‎ B. Gave up multi-player mode.‎ C. Learned to defend herself against bad people.‎ D. Decided to rebuild her school independently.‎ C ‎“What do you want to be when you grow up?” When I was a kid, I was afraid of the question. I never had a good answer. Grown-ups always seemed terribly disappointed that I wasn’t dreaming of becoming something great, like a film-maker or a spaceman.‎ In college, I finally realized that I didn’t want to be one thing. I wanted to do many things. So I became an organizational psychologist(心理学家). My job is to fix other people’s jobs. And I think that asking kids what they want to be does harm to them.‎ First, the question forces kids to define(界定) themselves in terms of work. When you’re asked what you want to be when you grow up, it’s not socially acceptable to say a “father”, or, a “mother”. This might be one of the reasons that while many parents say that what they value most is to care about others, their kids believe that success is more important. When we define ourselves by our jobs, our worth depends on what we achieve.‎ The second problem is that it tells kids there is one calling out there for everyone. Although having a calling can bring people joy, research shows that searching for one leaves students feeling lost. After the actor Chris Rock heard a teacher tell high schoolers they could be anything they want to be, he asked, “Lady, why are you lying to these children?” Maybe four of them could be anything they want to be, but the other 2,000 had better learn how to weld(焊接). He added, “Tell the kids the truth. You can be anything you’re good at.”‎ I’m all for encouraging kids to dream big. But it is no good asking kids what they want to be. Instead,‎ invite them to think about what kind of person they want to be and about all the different things they might want to do.‎ ‎28. How did the author feel when he was asked the question?‎ A. Angry B. Stupid C. Uneasy D. Disappointed ‎29. What is one problem with the question according to Paragraph 3?‎ A. Kids may put success first. B. Kids may stop dreaming big.‎ C. It makes kids refuse to grow up. D. It makes kids depend more on others.‎ ‎30. What can be inferred from Chris Rock’s words?‎ A. Nobody is perfect. B. Not everyone has a calling.‎ C. Nothing is impossible. D. Nobody can succeed without working hard.‎ ‎31. What does the author suggest grown-ups do?‎ A. Teach kids some useful skills. B. Let kids know more about society.‎ C. Encourage kids to try to achieve a lot. D. Ask kids to consider different possibilities.‎ D Why would human beings waste a third of their lives sleeping when they could be doing more important things like looking after their families or working? Some scientists believe sleeping helps recharge the body, while others think it is important for strengthening newly-formed memories. Now, there is new evidence which suggests that the purpose of sleep may be to forget some of the millions of new things we learn each day.‎ The neurons(神经元) in the human brain consist of fibers called dendrites. These grow as we learn new things and connect the brains cells to each other at contact points called synapses. The larger the dendrites become and the more cells they connect, the more information we store.‎ In 2003, Giulio Tononi and Chiara Cirelli, both biologists at the University‎ of ‎Wisconsin-Madison, suggested a new idea: The things our brains learn each day result in so many synapses that things start to get a little messy. Sleeping allows us to sort through the “noise” and dispense all the unnecessary information, leaving behind only the most important memories.‎ Recently, the university’s research has provided direct evidence to support the theory. The experiment involved analyzing 6,920 synapses in the brain shavings from two groups of mice over a four-year period, one group had been allowed to sleep, while the other had been kept awake and entertained with toys. The researchers discovered that the brain shavings of the sleeping mice had nearly 20 percent fewer synapses than those that had been kept awake and entertained.‎ It was also clear during the study that the brain does not shave every synapse. 20% of neurons remained unchanged; these were most likely well-fixed memories. Therefore, although we may be sleeping to forget some of what we’ve learned, the brain “forget” in a smart way.‎ Most researchers believe clearing our brains is not the only purpose of sleep. Resting our minds and bodies has also been found to help with other biological functions like strengthening our immunity(免疫). Though scientists may never agree on a single reason, they are all sure of one thing -- a good night’s rest is essential for our health. So try and spend at least a third of your day sleeping!‎ 32. What is the second paragraph mainly about?‎ A. The growth of neurons. B. The shape of the human brain.‎ C. The connection of brain cells. D. The memory storage in neurons ‎33. Which of the following can replace the underlined word “dispense” in paragraph3?‎ A. Pick up B. Get rid of C. Bring together D. Make use of.‎ 34. According to the new research, sleep may help us .‎ A. reduce pressure B. refresh our body C. keep new memories D. forget unimportant things ‎35. What is the author’s purpose in writing the text?‎ A. To report a new discovery. B. To prove a new theory.‎ C. To show sleep is good for memory. D. To discuss how long one should sleep.‎ 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，并在答题卡上将相应的选项涂黑。选项中有两项为多余选项。‎ The playing field is never fair or equal. 36 Knowing what you can do to have an advantage can make the difference between success and failure.‎ My kids tell me it’s unfair to play with the big children. I tell them that’s right. Unfairness is a ‎ good thing. There is more to be gained by the effort when things seem unfair. It’s true that many things in the world are unfair. 37 For example, the early bird catches the worm. It’s unfair that the bird that sleeps in misses out on breakfast but it’s nice to know that if it gets up early it’s sure to get the worm.‎ I always try to explain to my kids that complaining about how unfair something is will get them nowhere. 38 Once you do that you are in the advantage. Above all, you have to focus on gaining that unfair advantage and in order to do that, build your inner strength. When you empower yourself you are gaining skills or abilities, confidence and self-esteem (自尊). 39 Where do you want to be financially, spiritually, emotionally, and physically? You are creating your own story when you empower yourself.‎ ‎ 40 If you haven’t yet, you need to make a list of all the things you want to experience in your new life. This will help you focus on building advantages so that you never have to say that it’s Not Fair. When you do this then you will be able to realize that unfairness is a good thing and you will want to teach those around you to see unfairness in this way too.‎ A. You should look at your place in the world.‎ B. Instead, make the most of it and get on the other side of it.‎ C. Therefore, the best way to deal with unfairness is to change it.‎ D. You can build all the advantages that you need to live the life that you want.‎ E. But unfair things usually benefit you.‎ F. Only when you know your advantages can you have more confidence.‎ G. Your skills and attitude play a major role in the outcome.‎ 第三部分英语知识运用（共两节，满分45）‎ 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。‎ She may be a young girl, but when it comes to sisterly devotion and giving back, Hailey Scheinman is wise beyond her years. 13-year-old Hailey has a/an 41 sister named Olivia (Livy), and the two are of an age and 42 inseparable. ‎ This is true despite the fact that physically, the girls are very 43 .
