After years of hard work, his dream has come true. The house is now in the early stages of building. Six years ago, Josh and his dad went into a Habitat for Humanity ReStore, a home improvement store and donation center run by the nonprofit organization. They were there to buy a sink. Josh, then 11, also noticed a collection of pennies. “I instantly felt the urge to help out with that,” he said. Josh set a fundraising deadline of four years. Many people doubted whether he could reach his goal of $100,000, but it didn’t shake his faith. He raised money at his school and other nearby schools. He collected money from neighbours, got publicity from local newspapers, and placed cans in stores so that people could donate extra change. Josh’s fundraising efforts began to produce results. Still, there were challenges. Four month before his deadline, he was $30, 000 short. He decided to hold Family Fun Fair and spaghetti Dinner in Uxbridge, which is in the province of Ontario. The event raised $19,000. “I didn’t care how long it took me,” Josh said. “I would raise $100,000.” With three weeks left, a company called Josh’s house, offering to donate $18,000. Eventually, Josh reached a total of $134,000 before the deadline. “The momentum just kept going, and we decided to do more,” he said. “Josh’s Penny House” is being built by Habitat for Humanity in the city of Oshawa, along with 24 new townhouses. Josh has helped with some of the construction, as have other volunteers. He will choose the family that moves into the unit. Next year, the 17-year-old will head to college in British Columbia, Canada’s westernmost province. As a 11-year-old kid when starting fundraising Josh was able to send a powerful message across the world. No matter how old you are, if you have a dream and are willing to do anything to achieve at, it can come true. 24. Which word can best describe Josh Morrison in Paragraph 2? A. Cautious. B. Straightforward. C. Open-minded. D. Determined. 25. Why was the Family Fun Fair and Spaghetti Dinner event held in Uxbridge? A. To attain his goal. B. To call for more attention. C. To win approval from the locals. D. To find sponsors for a family. 26. What does the underlined sentence in Paragraph 4 mean? A. He received continuous donations. B. His project became more popular. C. He got more support from his family. D. The result was beyond expectations. 27. What can be the best title for the text? A. Kindness from a Company B. The Penny House Dream C. An Astonishing Fundraiser D. a Boy with a Warm Heart C When there are some strangers in front of us, which of them will we trust? According to a new study in the online PLOSOne, people make their decisions to trust others largely based on their faces. Your appearance can do a lot for you, especially if you are in the financial industry. The more trustworthy you look, the more likely people will buy what you’re selling. Researchers from Britain’s University of Warwick Business School, University College London, and Dartmouth College, US, did a number of experiments. The research team used computer software to make 40 faces, from the least to the most trustworthy-looking. The study said that the difference between a trustworthy face and one that isn’t as trustworthy comes from features that look slightly angry or slightly happy, even when the face is at rest. However, a slightly happy face is more likely to be trusted. Researchers gave participants some money and asked them which face they trusted to invest the money for them. Then researchers gave some good and bad information about the people with these faces, and asked the participants again whom they trusted. The results showed that even if they got different information, the participants didn’t change their choices. They were still more likely to invest their money with the more trustworthy-looking faces. Chris Olivola, one of the study’s authors, said in the University of Warwick’s press release: “It seems we are still willing to go with our own instincts about whether we think someone looks like we can trust them.” 28. According to the study, which of the following faces is most likely to be trusted? A. An embarrassed face. B. A disappointed face. C. A smiling face. D. A nervous face. 29. What do we know about the experiments? A. Researchers took photos of the 40 people’s faces in colleges. B. Most participants gave their money to the trustworthy-looking faces. C. The trustworthy faces were given good information. D. Participants liked to choose the faces with good information. 30. Which of the following best explains “instincts” underlined in the last paragraph? A. Opinions that grow out of social practice. B. Judgements that are easily changed by others. C. Good information that are given by people around. D. Feelings rather than opinions or ideas based on facts. 31. What is the text mainly about? A. Why people trust a stranger with good appearance. B. People usually judge strangers according to their faces. C. How different information affects people’s decisions. D. Why the research team carried out the experiment. D Dogs, unlike people ， are capable of pure love﹣at least according to Freud ． As more Americans live alone ， unconditional affection is in demand ． Pet ownership has risen for decades．More than a third of homes have at least one dog，according to the American Veterinary Medical Association． But the popularity of four﹣legged friends has an unpleasant cost： dogs squeeze out more than twice the waste of the average person, or around 275 pounds a year．With over 83，000，000 dogs running around the country，that is a lot of waste． Around 60% of the stuff gets collected and trucked to landfills，where it releases methane， a greenhouse gas．The rest delivers surprises to pedestrians and can pollute waterways． The problem is particularly bad in cities，where green spaces are few and lonely souls seeking puppy love plentiful ． There are over 600 ， 000 dogs in New York﹣one for every 14 people﹣generating over 100，000 tons of turd （粪便） a year． This is a missed opportunity， says Ron Gonen， the city's former recycling tsar（掌权 者 ）． Now in the private sector ， he is trying to launch "Sparky Power" ， a programme to transform dog waste into clean energy in the city's dog parks． The idea is to fit parks with small anacrobic digesters（厌氧分解池）． Dog owners would place their dogs' turd into the machine， which then turns turd into gas for powering lamps and other park equipment． A year﹣long pilot would introduce digesters in three parks at a cost of around $ 100，000，000． The parks department is thinking about the proposal． Similar schemes in other cities have proved short﹣lived ． An underground Energy Transformation Using Reactive Digestion （ E﹣ TURD ） device created by Arizona State University students for a dog park in Gilbert， Arizona， in 2012 finally failed． "It's great to turn it into a biofuel， but first you gotta pick it up，" says Tom Boyd， an entrepreneur in Tennessee． His company， Poo Prints， shames the owners of dogs who fail to clean up their messes by testing DNA in uncollected turd． 32． What does the underlined part "The problem" in Paragraph 4 refer to？ A． Lots of people feel lonely． B． Pet dogs produce a lot of waste． C ． There are very limited green spaces ． D ． The greenhouse effect is getting serious． 33． What do we know about the programme "Sparky Power"？ A． It is about recycling household waste． B． It is operated by the local government． C． It aims to produce power from dog waste． D． It aims to clean parks with renewable energy． 34． So far the programme "Sparky Power" ． A． has just started B．has ended in failure C．is a great success D. is still under consideration 35． What is the purpose of the company Poo Prints？ A． To make good use of dog waste． B． To help people look for their dogs． C． To reduce the number of dog owners． D． To push people to pick up their dogs' waste 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。 Everybody likes to get a freebie（赠品）． On my way to work today I was offered a bottle of new mineral water． Lucky me eh？（36） ﹣where you can get a freebie depends on a number of factors． For businesses， giving out something for nothing is an important marketing technique． They want to see our reaction and hear our feedback （ 反 馈 ） and finally make us buy more．（37） ．They want to target the so﹣called trendsetters， in the hope that they will speak positively about the product and encourage people to buy more． Living in a capital city certainly improves your chances of getting a freebie．（38） ． So if you live in London， Paris or Beijing， you'll probably see a new promotional campaign starting there first．The hope is that the fashionable people there will try and like the new item and support it on social media．Eventually everyone around the country will know about it． How businesses give away freebies is also of interest ．（ 39 ） ： future selling ， cross﹣selling and up﹣selling．The first is about giving something away assuming we will like it and buy more clients（客户） through an entrance product， with the intention of selling them additional products during its life cycle， and up﹣ selling happens when a basic version is given away for free but charges a client for more advanced and complete versions． （40） ﹣someone has to pay for it and this usually comes from a firm's marketing budget which is funded by the products we buy﹣so the expression "there's no such thing as a free lunch" could be true． A． We might not given it much thought B． Well it's a not necessarily down to luck C． Of course a freebie is not actually free D． But who they hear from is very important E． Maybe you have experienced one of these approaches F． According to economist Enrico Trevisan， they have three approaches G． Not only is the population larger but these places are considered the trendsetter 第三部分 英语知识运用 (共两节, 满分 40 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。 Years ago, a critical event occurred in my life that would change it forever.

He was delighted that he had created a very satisfying work. So he walked to the back of the classroom to put his work away carefully. There, lying on the carpet in front of the classroom bookcase, was a golden ticket! Karson picked it up. His heart beat faster when he saw that the name line was blank. He couldn’t believe his luck! The boys and girls in Karson’s class could earn golden tickets by doing well in their study or by being extra helpful or kind. Once a week their teacher drew a ticket out of a box on her desk and let the winner choose a prize. Today was the golden ticket drawing, and here was another ticket, just for him! Karsol looked around. No one else was near the ticket. All his classmates were at their desks, laughing and talking with each other. Miss Evans was engaged in grading the papers collected earlier in the morning. Karson decided to write his name on the blank line. Then he could put it into the prize box with the six tickets he’d already earned. With so many chances, one of his tickets would most probably be picked! Then he could choose the pink toy pig for his sister’s birthday, just like he had been hoping. He smiled and reached for the pencil in his pocket. Suddenly his fingers stopped. There was a strange feeling in his chest, and it wasn’t his heartbeat. It’s finders or keepers, right? He wondered. He looked out of the window and tried to figure it out. On the one hand, he did find the ticket, but he hadn’t earned it. Somebody must have lost it. But on the other hand, he did need this extra ticket for his great plan! 注意： 1. 所续写短文的词数应为 150 左右； 2. 至少使用 5 个短文中标有下划线的关键词语； 3. 续写部分分为两段，每段的开头语已为你写好； 4. 续写完成后，请用下划线标出你所使用的关键词语。 Paragraph 1: Karson stared at the blank name line for a moment. _______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: “Karson, I’d like you to have another ticket!” Miss Evans said. ________________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ 参考答案 第一部分 听力 30 分：1~5 ABBAC 6~10 ACCBA 11~15 BCACC 16~20 BACAB 第二部分 阅读 30 分： 21 CCA 24.

He knew his plan wouldn’t be so great if he won with a ticket that didn’t belong to him. So he walked up to his teacher. “Miss Evans, I happened to find this ticket on the floor near the bookcase. I think the one who lost it will look for it. And these are mine.” he said, dropping his six tickets into the box. When he turned around to leave, the teacher stopped him. Paragraph 2: “Karson, I’d like you to have another ticket!” Miss Evans said. Karson was amazed and wondered why. Miss Evans smiled and signed to the class to quiet down. “Karson handed in the golden ticket he had just found. I think he is honest and deserves another one!” The class burst into loud applause. Karson happily went back to his seat, eagerly expecting the ticket drawing. He still wanted his name to be picked, but he would feel OK even if it wasn’t. After all, making the right choice did make him feel great!
