However, it soon turned into a sudden feeling of being doubtful of the idea of participating in a great cause. The thought of working for a state government’s Ministry of Women and Child Welfare project led me to challenge my own potential of enriching the children’s lives. It struck me that regardless of the contribution to the lives of some 42 orphan girls, who had undergone countless painful experiences in their childhood, it was more important and convincing to at least try and be able to change their lives in some small way. Our guide put huge faith in me and, therefore, assigned me the new task of directing an- other team of 8 boys. As days passed by, my team of boys told their individual life stories and what followed was not a feeling of sympathy but an admiration and respect for their enduring nature of still loving life as it came and facing it with great courage. Teaching them about various general life skills made up the most part of the social task. I gradually started realizing people’s power of giving back to the society. There is no doubt that both evil and good exist but it was necessary to tell these boys about how they can not only survive but do well in their lives in this cruelly competitive world. I am glad I could fill this aspect of life in them. It touched me a lot, especially after having seen so many tough times in life. The best part about this whole projects for me, was a two-way learning process and it convinced me of my abilities to add to other people s efforts of goodness and kindness. It fills my heart with a lot of joy to exchange some acts of kindness. I believe every person has some social responsibility! 24. What does the underlined word “it” in the first paragraph refers to? A. Doubt. B. Joy. C. Heat. D. Sadness. 25. What did the author do before she took up her new task? A. She helped some orphan girls. B. She worked as the government’s minister. C. She totally changed the orphan girls’ life. D. She experienced many painful experiences. 26. What was the author’s main work in her new social task? A. Changing the boys1 wrong attitude to life. B. Letting the boys know the hardship of life. C. Making the boys form the ability to learn. D. Teaching the boys different general life skills. 27. What benefited the author most according to the last paragraph? A. She saw tough times in life. B. She found her great patience. C She gained more self-confidence. D. She understood her moral responsibility. C The typical British employees can expect to spend about £34,000 during their whole working life on the daily costs of being in the office, including tea runs and leaving gifts for colleagues, according to research. A survey of 2^000 office workers across the UK found that the combined cost of Christmas parties and dinners, cards and presents, coffees and teas, sponsorship (赞助) requests, Secret Santa and etc. totaled about £850 a year. Over the course of a 40-year career, that would amount to about £34,000, according to Nationwide Current Account, which carried out the survey. Men generally tend to be unhappier than women about spending money at work, but women are more likely to feel pressured into paying out for work-related items. 42% of men were unhappy about spending money at work Christmas parties, compared with 34% of women. But one in five women said they felt under pressure to spend money at work Christmas parties, compared with just 12% of men, Overall more than a quarter of people surveyed said they felt pressured when it came to contributing towards birthday and leaving gifts, with 27% of people saying this about gifts for colleagues who were leaving. Nearly 32% said they felt pressured into contributing money to help their colleagues, charity fund raising efforts. Alan Oliver, Nationwide’s head of external affairs, said, “Working in an office can be an expensive business, especially in big teams. Too many birthdays, retirements and charity fundraisers can take their toil on our wallets and purses. We would recommend putting in only what you can afford. Developing a regular savings habit can also help in meeting many of future life’s financial challenges.” 28. If a British man works for 30 years, the daily office costs are totally about ________. A. £25,500 B. £34,000 C. £20,000 D. £40,000 29. Compared with men, women’s reaction to spending money at work Christmas parties is ________. A. more satisfied B. unhappier C. more stressed D. less concerned 30. What does Alan Oliver advise office workers to do? A. Work in big teams. B. Save money for future use. C. Get along well with colleagues. D. Raise enough money to do charily. 31. What can be the best title for the text? A. The Management of Personal Finance B. Relations Among the UK Office Workers C. Levels of Happiness of the UK Office Workers D. The Daily Cost of the UK Employees in an Office D Missing out on deep sleep can leave you feeling slow-acting and sensitive in the morning, but the consequences don’t necessarily end there. Over time, too little deep sleep may also do harm to your heart by contributing to high blood pressure, a new study suggests. Healthy young and middle-aged adults spend about 25 percent of their sleeping hours in the stages known as deep sleep. This sleep stage has been shown to be important for memory and other mental performance. The new study adds to the growing evidence that deep sleep is also essential to our metabolism (新陈代谢) and heart health. The research should be considered “exploratory”, and it doesn’t prove a direct link between sleep patterns and high blood pressure. But it suggests that wan important aspect of successful aging is the preservation of good sleep quality”. Older people tend to get less deep sleep as they age, find fighting this natural decline —through healthy sleep habits, for example—could be an “extraordinarily important strategy” for heading off high blood pressure. Sleep problems have been linked to high blood pressure before. Sleep apnoea, a disorder in which a person wakes up struggling for breath time and time again, is strongly linked to high blood pressure, though it’s not clear whether the disorder causes high blood pressure. Susan Redline, a professor of sleep medicine, says going to bed and waking up at the same time each day, especially keeping away from alcohol and tobacco before going to bed» and other good “sleep hygiene (卫生)” can help people sleep longer. However, the researchers followed the men s sleep only on a single nights, and they likewise measured blood pressure just once or twice. Therefore, the study failed to rule out factors besides sleep quality, such as diet or medical conditions, which may independently contribute to high blood pressure. More research will be needed to address these shortcomings, the study notes. Nor is it clear whether habitual sleep loss has long-term effects on overall sleep quality and deep sleep. 32. What effect does lack of deep sleep have on people? A. Their hearts stop functioning. B. Their metabolism always accelerates. C They are less easily hurt in body and spirit. D. They may perform worse physically and mentally. 33. What does the underlined word “apnoea” in Paragraph 4 mean? A. Habit. B. Medicine. C. A condition where somebody stops breathing temporarily. D. A disease which somebody suffers from because of overwork. 34. Which of the following is typically good sleep hygiene according to the text? A. Getting up soon after waking up. B. Going to bed early by taking sleep medicine. C. Avoiding alcohol and tobacco before bedtime. D. Trying to sleep as long as possible every day. 35. What is the main idea of the last paragraph? A. Major findings of the study. B. Some limitations of the study. C. Different factors affecting sleep quality. D. Some possible causes of high blood pressure. 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内处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余 选项。 Today, the trend in music production is shifting more and more toward home studios. _36_. Do you want to know how music actually is recorded indoors? _37_ Today, we use a more complex process known as multitrack recording where each instrument is recorded separately and combined later in a “mix”. With this new method, it meant that one man could do alone what used to require an entire team of engineers and musicians. The editing process Now that you’ve finished recording your tracks, it’s time to clean them up. The reason is that there will always be some mistakes that can be fixed, no matter how careful you were in the last step. _38_. They’re arrangement, comping (伴奏), noise reduction, time editing and pitch (高音) editing. The mixing process Once the tracks are arranged, the next goal is to make them combine as one connected unit, which is called the process of “mixing”. _39_. There are certain fundamental tasks that everyone does. One task is balancing faders, which is done so that no instrument sounds too loud or soft. The mastering process Before your song is ready to be mastered, all tracks must be “re-recorded” down to a single stereo file, as we commonly know. Once that’s done, various mastering techniques are used to put the finishing touches on your song. _40_ And if you don t know what you’re doing, you can easily make things worsen rather than better. A. The recording process B. The combining process C. To put it simply, mastering is hard D. Typically, editing is made up of five common tasks E. Mixing is an art form in itself and can be done in many ways F. Editing is the most important part in the process of music production G. Great music is being produced in bedrooms or garages by normal folks like you and me 第三部分 语言知识运用（共两节，满分 45 分） 第一节（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 A、B、C 和 D 四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的 最佳选项。 Years ago when my husband and I were dating, I bought two coffee cups.

I didn’t purchase them to _42_ anyone though they are crackled (有裂痕的) and almost no longer _43_. In 2008, I had a long _44_ with breast cancer. Pretending to be _45_, I moved on with a smile. Only those very _46_ to me my family, really knew I was afraid beneath the _47_. One morning, my husband Doug _48_ my coffee as he did every morning in my “Terri” cup. The cup could no longer take the heat. It finally cracked. I thought this was a _49_ to me. I lost it. I began to cry. “Doug, this means something! I am broken! _50_ I can’t be fixed?” I said, He just hugged me and _51_ me down. And then he quickly went outside. He _52_ with some glue. He took that cup telling me that he was going to _53_ it and that I would be _54_ and cancer was not going to “break” me. Doug fixed that cup with such _55_ and care. The cup is not the same as before but it _56_ sits in our cupboard. Later, I was _57_ changed; a little cracked but not completely _58_. I will never forget that day my husband tried to _59_ my favorite coffee cup. It was a turning _60_ for me. And that cup, like Doug, will stay with me as long as I live. 41.

However, extremely little is known about his early life. It was not the custom for people in those days _61_ (write) much of anything. He didn’t talk about himself much, either. The best source for his thoughts and deeds is _62_ (probable) the Dialogues of Plato, a student of the great teacher. Socrates was once a soldier in the Athenian army. These soldiers had to buy _63_ (they) own armors (盔甲). _64_ he wasn’t rich, he must have had some money to buy that armor. He also _65_ (fight) in several major battles in the Peloponnesian War. When he grew older, however, he came to hate money and what it did to people. He seems to have spent most of his time in the marketplace, discussing all _66_ (sort) of things. That could partly explain _67_ he was poor; he wasn’t making _68_ living. The thing he liked to do most was to ask people fundamental questions, like “What is justice?” or “What is _69_ (true)?” To the answers the people gave, Socrates would add more questions, until a logical case could be made that the people knew far less than they thought they did about things. This emphasis on questions as means of making an argument now _70_ (call) the Socratic Method. 第三部分 写作（共两节，满分 35 分） 第一节 短文改错（共 10 小题；每小题 1 分，满分 10 分） 假定英语课上老师要求同桌之间交换修改作文，请你修改你同桌写的以下短文。短文中 共有 10 处错误，每句中最多有两处。错误涉及一个单词的增加、删除或修改。 增加：在缺词处加一个漏字符号（∧），并在此符号下面写出该加的词。 删除：把多余的词用斜线（＼）划掉。 修改：在错的词下划一横线，并在该词下面写出修改后的词。 注意：1. 每处错误及其修改均仅限一词； 2. 只允许修改 10 处，多者（从第 11 处起）不计分。 What is a motto?
