For example, when I was 12, I went to Puerto Rico all by myself to stay with my grandmother for the summer. My ‎ mom was extremely nervous about it. She kept telling me how things were different in Puerto Rico, to always put on sun cream, not to wander away from my grandmother, and other warnings. She helped me pack and did not leave the airport until she saw my plane take off.‎ ‎ But despite her worries, she let me go on my own. As I moved into my teens, she continued to give me space to grow and learn, even when it might have been difficult for her. When I reached my senior year, I decided to move away for college. Once again I found that I differed from my peers. While many of them wanted to stay close to home, I couldn’t wait to be out in the world on my own. I had been looking forward to this chance for longer than I could remember. And once again, while my mom may not have been happy at the thought of me going away, she was supportive and excited for me. Sure, there were times when she’d nag(不断地唠叨) me about certain choices I made, but for the most part she did not stand in my way.‎ One big thing I realized during my senior year was that she actually believes in me and trusts me. That means a lot. Most of my life, and especially when I was little, the main person I tried to impress was my mother. I knew she expected nothing but the best for me. Sometimes it was hard to live up to her standards; getting a single B on my report card would make me feel bad because I knew she wanted me to have A’s.‎ I know that her high standards have helped me stay focused on what’s important, like education, and made me who I am. I am thankful for her support and involvement in my life. Most of all I respect her; she is the strongest woman I know and that’s why I have turned out so strong and independent.‎ ‎21. The author decided to move away for college to ________.‎ ‎ A. be different from his peers B. go against his mother’s will ‎ C. keep away from his mother D. be independent in the outside world.‎ ‎22. We can learn from the third paragraph that the author’s mother ________.‎ ‎ A. was too strict with him B. was never content with his performance ‎ C. had high expectations of him D. cared little about his learning ‎23. In this passage, the author mainly wants to tell us ________.‎ ‎ A. his long way to become independent ‎ B. his appreciation for his mother’s trust and support ‎ C. his good relationship with his mother ‎ D. his mother’s deep love for him ‎ B ‎ Brrriiinnng. The alarm clock announces the start of another busy weekday in the morning. You jump out of bed, rush into the shower, into your clothes and out the door with hardly a moment to think. A stressful journey to work gets your blood pressure climbing. Once at the office, you glance through the newspaper with depressing stories or reports of disasters. In that sort of mood, who can get down to work, particularly some creative, original problem-solving work?‎ ‎ The way most of us spend our morning is exactly opposite the conditions that promote flexible, open-minded thinking. Imaginative ideas are most likely to come to us when we’re unfocused. If you are one of those energetic morning people, your most inventive time comes in the early evening when you are relaxed. Sleepy people’s lack of focus leads to an increase in creative problem solving. By not giving yourself time to tune into your wandering mind, you’re missing out on the surprising solutions it may offer.‎ The trip you take to work doesn’t help, either. The stress slows down the speed with which signals travel between neurons(神经细胞)，making inspirations less likely to occur. And while we all should read a lot about what’s going on in the world, it would not make you feel good for sure, so put that news website or newspaper aside until after the day’s work is done.‎ So what would our mornings look like if we wanted to start them with a full capacity for creative problem solving? We’d set the alarm a few minutes early and lie awake in bed, following our thoughts where they lead. We’d stand a little longer under the warm water of the shower, stopping thinking about tasks in favor of a few more minutes of relaxation. We’d take some deep breaths on our way to work, instead of complaining about heavy traffic. And once in the office---After we get a cup of coffee---we’d click on links not to the news of the day but to the funniest videos the web has to offer.‎ ‎24. According to the author, we are more creative when we are ________.‎ ‎ A. relaxed B. focus C. awake D. busy ‎ ‎25. By “tune into your wandering mind” （in Paragraph 2）, the author means “________”.‎ ‎ A. wander into the world B. stop concentrating on anything ‎ C. switch to the traffic channel D. listen to a beautiful tune ‎26. The author writes the last paragraph in order to ________.‎ ‎ A. summarize past experiences B. suggest various ways of life ‎ ‎ C. offer practical suggestions D. set a routine for future ‎ C Some people are so rude!‎ Who sends an e-mail or a text message that just says “Thank you”? Who leaves a voice mail message rather than texts you? Who asks for a fact easily found on Google? Don’t these people realize that they’re wasting your time?‎ Maybe I’m the rude one for not appreciating life’s little politeness. But many social agreed standards just don’t make sense to people drowning in digital communication.‎ In texts, you don’t have to declare who you are or even say hello; E-mail, too, is slower than a text; Voice mail is now impolite way of trying to connect.‎ My father learned this lesson after leaving me a dozen voice mail message, none of which I listened to. Exasperated, he called my sister to express his dissatisfaction that I never returned his phone calls. “Why are you leaving him voice mails?” my sister asked. “Just text him.”‎ In the age of the smartphone, there is no reason to ask once-acceptable questions about: The weather forecast, a business’s phone number, or directions to a house, a restaurant, which can be easily found on Google Maps. But people still ask these things. And when you answer, they respond with a thank-you e-mail.‎ How to handle these differing standards? Easy: Consider your audience. Some people, especially older ones, appreciate a thank-you message. Others, like me, want no reply.‎ The anthropologist(人类学家) Margaret Mead once said that in traditional societies, the young learn from the old. But in modern societies, the old can also learn from the young. Here’s hoping that politeness never goes out of fashion but that time-wasting forms of communication do.‎ ‎27. What does the underlined word “Exasperated” mean in the fifth paragraph?‎ ‎ A. Tired B. Surprised C. Worried D. Annoyed ‎28. Why didn’t the writer reply to his father?‎ ‎ A. He didn’t receive any voice mail message.‎ ‎ B. He enjoyed checking his voice mails.‎ ‎ C. He liked text message better.‎ ‎ D. He didn’t want to talk with his father.‎ ‎29. Which of the following does the writer agree to?‎ ‎ A. Dealing with voice mail should vary with each individual.‎ ‎ B. Declaring who they are or saying hello in texts is necessary.‎ ‎ C. People needn’t learn from one another in traditional societies.‎ ‎ D. People needn’t turn to Google for help when in trouble.‎ ‎30. What’s the best title of this passage?‎ ‎ A. Nowadays: Do you need a thank-you message B. Nowadays: Do you like leaving others a voice message ‎ C. Nowadays: What should we do with text messages.‎ ‎ D. Nowadays: What means should we use in communication 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。‎ ‎ Body language is the quiet, secret and most powerful language of all. It is said that our body movements communicate about forty percent of what we really mean while words themselves only express seven percent. So, while your mouth is closed, your body is just saying…‎ ‎ ▲Arms. 31. __________ If you keep your arms to the sides of your body or behind your back, this suggests you are not afraid of talking on whatever comes your way. If you cross your arms, that shows someone has upset you and that you’re unhappy. Arms tightly crossed over each other are a common sign that the person is angry and is closing himself off to you. 32. ___________ On the other hand, quieter people keep them close to their bodies.‎ ‎▲Head. When you want to appear confident, keep your head level. If you are the monitor in class, you can take on this position when you want your words to be taken seriously. However, being friendly in listening or speaking is a different matter. 33.______ ‎ ‎▲Legs. Your legs tend to move around a lot more than normal when you are nervous or telling lies. Sometimes, you may unconsciously tap your feet. Therefore, try to keep them still when you are at an interview.‎ ‎▲Mouth. 34._________When you are thinking, you often purse your lips(噘着嘴). You might also use this position to hold back all the angry comment you don’t wish to show. When you are surprised or unsure of what to say next, you cover your mouth.‎ ‎▲Face. 35. _________ A red face is typical of a person who is angry. A white face expresses fear while a blue face shows coldness. Masks of different colors showing different feelings also prove that.‎ A. A lot can be conveyed with it.‎ B. How arms are held is still a puzzle.‎ C. Move your head a little bit to one side.‎ D. Sit straight if you are feeling unhappy.‎ E. Its color can be important in communication.‎ F.

One morning he sent me out to collect fresh eggs. He became concerned when I didn’t return after a short time. When he came looking for me I jumped with joy, but he saw tears in my eyes and noticed that I was in an empty ‎ chicken house.‎ Noticing I was not in a good mood he asked, “What was wrong?” I told him tearfully, “That dirty rooster, who was now gentle, in my grandfather’s presence, came pecking(啄食) after me and all the hens started cackling(咯咯叫)，which scared me, and I ran into the next hen house for safety.” He took me by my hand and we walked right by the now quiet dirty rooster and comfortable hens. We sat under the apple tree, and he related the following story. “Did you notice how that rooster and hens behaved when I came in? Totally different than when you first came in.” I shouted, “The rooster and hens seemed to come at me.”‎ My grandfather then said, “That’s a new rooster the neighbor gave me. All your life you are going to come across people who will act like that rooster and hens. Only in different ways! It’s natural for that rooster to protect this house and his hens. The rooster is the leader and the hens are followers. Same with people! It doesn’t matter whether they are men or women. There will always be people who will try to lead your life and if you let them, you will become like the hens.”‎ ‎“But to be the leader, you have to first be able to lead your own life and be the rooster of your actions.

I’m open-minded and easy-going. My English is good enough to communicate with foreigners and I like to make friends. I live in a beautiful apartment and we have an extra room for guests. Besides, we have a private car. Most importantly. We just had a homestay American student last year.‎ ‎ If you accept my application to be a host family, I promise to make the foreign student feel at home and we can visit some local places of interest in our free time.‎ ‎ Looking forward to your early reply.‎ Yours,‎ Li Hua 第二节 读后续写（共1题，满分25分）‎ ‎ 写作指导 本文是一篇记叙文，主要描述几年前祖父让 “我”去鸡窝拾鸡蛋的经历。起初“我”害怕公鸡和一群母鸡的攻击， 但祖父来时所有的鸡就变得安静了。后来祖父和“我”讲，这些鸡和生活中的人一样，假如“我”不做领头的公鸡，那么就做像母鸡一样的跟随者。所以，续写文章的第一段要沿着这个脉络说明“我”见到的公鸡并不坏，这与人的本性一致， 考生要分析祖父来到鸡窝后为何鸡变得安静，以此启发“我”思考进鸡窝拾鸡蛋所采用的方法；续写文章的第二段，要描写祖父教给“我”方法之后，鼓励“我”采用这个方法，“我”‎ 最终克服了害怕的心理，成功地拾到鸡蛋。续写文章前考生一定要理清文章脉络，沿着作者的思路进行续写，并使用文章划线词汇中的5个以上词汇，与前文呼应，同时，要使用连词或副词，室文章衔接顺畅，续写文章要采用一般过去时，以第一人称进行书写。‎ ‎“That doesn’t mean that the rooster in us is bad or dirty, like the one you just experienced. That’s just the way some people naturally are, at least in their own minds. But did you notice the respect and the way he quieted down when I came in? He saw me in his sense as a bigger, stronger and probably smarter rooster than he is, which I am and so are you. But you didn’t think or believe it strong enough for him to feel. Next time before you walk in, believe that the rooster is just a tiny, sweet chick, and those hens are laying beautiful golden eggs that we can have for breakfast.”‎ ‎ Then he did the smartest move. He took me back to the chicken house, walked away and said, “Now go in and pick those golden eggs for breakfast.” Strangely, even while I was still scared, I bravely walked into the chicken house, ignored the rooster and picked up our golden eggs for breakfast.‎
