From picture books to beginning chapter books to YA books, books have always been part of my life. Unlike many people today, I don’t own a Kindle or a Nook or any type of e-reader. I prefer the old-fashioned book. There is something about holding a book and being able to turn the pages that I find comforting. In today’s 21st century, books may become obsolete. For me that’s something I find scary.‎ I am a fan of the old TV science-fiction series Twilight Zone. One episode (一段情节) is about a librarian who has become obsolete. Though this episode aired in 1961, the writer of the series,Rod Serling was exactly on point when it came to ‎ - 15 -‎ predicting the future. ‎ In fact, in San Antonio, Texas the first-ever bookless library in the country opened. The library is full of iMacs, tablets and iPads which cost a huge $2.3 million. The library offers around 10,000 e-books. So the question is, is this what the future will soon be? Mary Graham, vice president of South Carolina’s Charleston Metro Chamber of Commerce states, “This is the future... If you’re going to be building new library facilities, this is what you need to be doing.”‎ It is our generation that will be the guinea pigs (试验品) of increasing technology like this. Is this a good or bad thing? Well, digital libraries may help the environment by not using paper, however, I feel like something will always be lacking with a digital book. A digital library is just the beginning.‎ With all of this new technology, people seem to be more absorbed in their own world. One of my biggest complaints is when I am with my friends and they can’t seem to get off their smart phone and talk to me. To make plans with a friend and then have them stuck on their phone the whole time is extremely rude. Not only is it disrespectful, but it reflects the direction of where human interactions are heading. Though social media is great, it also is addicting and has negative effects.‎ Often when I go on Facebook it just makes me feel worse about myself. I’ll see many of my 800 Facebook friends showing off their newest accomplishment or acceptance to college. Additionally, our society is becoming increasingly lazy. For instance, instead of doing mental math, people use their phone to solve 89+74. It is simple tasks like these that are allowing people to lack important educational and social skills.‎ It is up to us to find a balance between technology and human values and interactions. With new technology being created every day, we need to learn how to use it alongside our great minds. After all, inventions are supposed to benefit society, not harm it. In the day of technology, who knows what’s next?‎ ‎25. The underlined word “obsolete” (Paragraph 1) is closest in meaning to________. ‎ A. complex B. outdated C. expensive D. meaningless - 15 -‎ ‎26. What can we learn about the library in San Antonio, Texas?‎ A. It is the first-ever library in America. ‎ B. It is of no practical use although it costs so much.‎ C. People can read e-books there with the help of the new facilities.‎ D. It holds an exhibition of much electronic equipment.‎ ‎27. Which of the following will the writer probably disagree with?‎ A. Through social media, people can develop educational and social skills.‎ B. With the increasing use of social media, something will actually be lost.‎ C. Great as social media is, it does have some negative effects.‎ D. As a result of social media, people may communicate less with the people around.‎ ‎28. What’s the writer’s attitude to the bookless library?‎ A. sceptical B. optimistic C. supportive D. objective C BEIJING, Oct.1 (Xinhua)—Police across China have got ready to deal with huge traffic flows along expressways during the eight-day national holiday, said the Ministry of Public Security here Monday. ‎ Traffic along main expressways increased by more than 40 percent on Sunday, the first day of the holiday period, said a statement on the ministry website. ‎ Police have opened 743 service stations along expressways and set up to 14, 000 temporary service booths to help control traffic, the statement said. ‎ In addition, more than 16, 000 ambulances have been put on standby for emergencies and accidents along busy sections, the statement said. ‎ The number of travelers taking to China’s expressways totaled 85 million by 4 p.m. on Sunday, 13.3 percent more than that of last year, according to the Ministry of Transport. ‎ The surge was partially because of a government policy, allowing free passage of passenger cars with seven seats or fewer on toll roads, bridges and tunnels during the Spring Festival, Qing Ming Festival, Labor Day and National Day. ‎ - 15 -‎ Authorities predict that around 740 million trips will be made by Chinese people during the holiday, with about 660 million trips to be made on roads and waters. The ministry called in the statement for safe driving and urged drivers to stay away from hard shoulders (隔离墩) on expressways during congestions, so emergency vehicles can pass. ‎ ‎29. On Oct. 1, the first day of the National Day, the traffic along main expressways increased ‎ by _____.‎ A. four fifths B. three fifths C. two fifths D. one fifth ‎30. According to the new policy, what kind of cars can enjoy the free passage on expressways?‎ A. Cars with no less than seven seats. B. Cars with about seven seats. ‎ C. Cars with no more than seven seats. D. Cars with seven seats.‎ ‎31. What’s the main idea of the passage?‎ A. Last month the State Council announced a new government policy. ‎ B. Traffic along main expressways increased by more than 40 percent on Sunday.‎ C. The ministry called in the statement for safe driving during the eight-day national holiday. ‎ D. To solve the huge traffic flows during the eight-day national holiday, more police are sent and more action is taken. ‎ D The advice offered from any other 82-year-olds might have made young people yawn and roll their eyes. But when former South African president Nelson Mandela advised two dozen local youth leaders in Los Angeles to take education seriously, his audience was listening. ‎ The famed old man said to the young people that if they expected to improve the lives of others in the future, they must work at improving their own lives now. “Education is one of the most important weapons you have,” Mandela advised. “It ‎ - 15 -‎ will place you in a far better position to serve yourself and your community. ” ‎ ‎“The point is, he was young once and rebellious once and he kept his dream alive, just as you each have dreams,” explained South Africa’s ambassador to the United States, Sheila Sisulu, as she introduced Mandela to the young crowd. ‎ Asked for specific advice about changing society by 21-year-old Ahmed Younis, Mandela suggested that somehow helping arouse more American interest in foreign affairs might be a start. ‎ ‎“There is an impression that Americans, in general, have not followed international developments properly,” Mandela said. “I’m not making that statement myself, but there are serious political analysts who say Americans are not well informed as to what has happened in the world.”‎ ‎22-year-old Omari Trice said Mandela left him full of enthusiasm. “He’s a person who set the tone for an entire nation,” said Trice. “You come away feeling you need to be a superman in order to get things done.”‎ ‎32. From the passage, we can conclude that American youth______________. ‎ A. are willing to accept the advice from world-famous leaders B. usually think that advice from old people is not worth considering C. have a good understanding of the old D. have no intention to improve the lives of others ‎33. Nelson Mandela makes the point in his speech that American youth leaders should_______. ‎ A. go to college for better education B. improve their own lives ‎ C. put more importance on education D. become interested in foreign affairs ‎34. What Sheila Sisulu said suggested that_________. ‎ A. she was especially troublesome when young B. Nelson Mandela never lost hope in his life ‎ C. American youth should be no more rebellious ‎ D. Nelson Mandela was quite different from American youth when young ‎35. From what Trice said, we can know that____________.‎ - 15 -‎ A. he thought little of Mandela’s speech B. he must be a superman in order to change society C. he’ll be more interested in international development D. he was greatly impressed and encouraged by Mandela’s speech 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。‎ Secrets to a Happier Commute(通勤)‎ The daily commute can often be as stressful as work itself. Here are some secrets to a happier, less stressful way to travel every day. ‎ Use public transport whenever possible. If you drive your own car to work, you’ll feel you’re in control. So if you get stuck in traffic, you feel that you have lost control of your commuting experience, which makes you stressed. By taking public transport, you have already given up control of your commute. 36 ‎ Consider car-sharing. Car-sharing can reduce stress, especially when you’re an out-going person. 37 But keep in mind, if you prefer a quiet commute, then car-sharing with people who expect more conversation could just make you more stressed. ‎ ‎ 38 It is such an obvious way to improve your commute, yet the crowded streets and trains show that few people manage to find a better solution. It may be hard to find a new job, but you may try to get up earlier and drive in before the crowds. ‎ Never “race” with other cars. It rarely gains you more than a few minutes, but it has a huge price because it adds greatly to your stress level. 39 And your commute will become much more pleasant. ‎ Work out in your car. Do isometrics (静力锻炼法) while driving by tensing and relaxing your leg muscles. 40 It can also improve your health and relax you without distracting you or adding an extra minute to your schedule. ‎ A. Avoid rush hour. ‎ B. Wake up earlier.‎ - 15 -‎ C. That is because you can communicate with others. ‎ D. Drive calmly, and don’t try to compete with others by speeding up. ‎ E. If you get stuck, you won’t be blaming yourself for the delay.‎ F. When done correctly for some time, these exercises can make a great difference to your shape.‎ G. When you are late for work, you will complain about the traffic jam.‎ 第三部分 英语知识运用(共两节,满分45分)‎ 第一节 完形填空(共20小题;每题1.5分,满分30分)‎ 阅读下面短文,掌握其大意,然后从短文后各题所给的四个选项中选出可以填在空白处的最佳选项。‎ A grey sweater hung limply (无力地,不直挺地)on Tom’s empty desk, a reminder of the sad boy who had just followed his classmates out of our third-grade room. Soon Tom’s parents, who had recently 41 , would arrive for a meeting on his 42 schoolwork and bad behavior. ‎ ‎ 43 of the parents knew that I had sent for the other.‎ Tommy, an (a) 44 child, had always been a happy, cooperative and excellent student. 45 could I convince (使相信) his father and mother that his recent failing grades represented a 46 child’s reaction to his loved parents’ separation and coming divorce?‎ Tom’s mother entered and took one of the chairs I had placed near my desk. Soon the father arrived. Good! At least they were 47 enough to be present at the meeting. A look of surprise and anger passed between them, and then they purposely 48 each other.‎ As I gave a detailed description of Tom’s behavior and schoolwork, I prayed for the 49 ‎ words to bring these two together, to help them see what they were doing to their son. 50 ‎ somehow the words wouldn’t come. Perhaps if they saw one of his unclear 51 done - 15 -‎ ‎ papers.‎ I found a crumpled(褶皱的) tear-spotted sheet of paper in the corner of his desk, an English paper. 52 covered both sides——not the schoolwork, but a single sentence scribbled(潦草地写) over and over.‎ ‎ 53 I smoothed it out and gave it to Tom’s mother. She read it and then without a word handed it to her husband. He frowned(皱眉头). Then his face 54 . He studied the scrawled words for 55 seemed so long a time.‎ At last he folded the paper carefully, placed it in his pocket, and 56 his wife’s outstretched hand. She wiped the tears from her eyes and 57 at him. My own eyes were filled with tears, but neither seemed to 58 . He helped her with her coat and they left together.‎ In his own way God had given me the words to 59 that family. He had guided me to the sheet of yellow copy paper covered with the sad showing of a small boy’s 60 heart.‎ The words, “Dear Mom ... Dear Daddy ... I love you ... I love you ... I love you.”‎ ‎41.

From Russia’s 62 (send) the first human into space in 1961 to China’s plan to send a rover(探测器) to Mars in 2020, we’re slowly becoming more familiar with this mysterious and faraway place.‎ Indeed, in ancient times, many people 63 (wonder) what was up in the so-called heavens. They turned the skies 64 the background of stories. It was 65 (wide) believed that the heavens were important because it could predict or control something. ‎ Today, we know a lot more about the “heavens”, 66 we now call “space” and “outer space”. Since Copernicus(哥白尼), 67 Polish astronomer, we 68 (know) that we are part of a solar system, like Jupiter, Mars and other planets that go around the sun.‎ We’ve even been there. We’ve circled around our planet in space stations and a few of us have set foot on the surface of the moon. We’ve landed spacecraft on other planets and received scientific information from those craft. However, none - 15 -‎ ‎ of this science has made space any less 69 (fascinate) to us. Space is still as mysterious as it 70 (be) for the ancient people. And perhaps it will always be.‎ 第四部分 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)‎ 请改正下面短文中的错误。文中共有10处语言错误,每句中最多有两处。每处错误仅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(∧),并在其下面写出该加的词;‎ 删除:把多余的词用斜线(\)划掉; ‎ 修改:在错的词下画一横线,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。‎ As is known to all that the same body language may have different meaning in different cultures. If we don’t use body language properly, we may be misunderstanding. ‎ Last year I had a holiday in Thailand. I was walking in the street while I saw a boy fall down. I quickly ran over, help him stand up and patted him on the head. Surprising, he seemed very much angry and walked away. I had meant to comfort him with the way we Chinese usually do. Later, I know that it’s impolite to pat a child’s head in Thailand. I felt embarrassing. ‎ Obviously body language is important part of international communication. Only when we know more about other cultures, can we have a better understanding of foreigners.‎ 第二节 书面表达(满分25分)‎ 你的美国朋友Jack在北京留学,他写信告诉你他计划今年寒假到成都来旅行,所以希望你就交通方式和旅游景点两方面给他一些建议。‎ 主要内容要点如下:‎ ‎1.推荐一种从北京到成都的交通方式,并说明原因;‎ ‎2.推荐1-2个成都的旅游景点,并阐明推荐理由;‎ ‎3.愿意提供更多帮助。‎ - 15 -‎ 注意:‎ ‎1.总词数:120词左右;‎ ‎2.开头和结尾已给出,不计入总词数;‎ ‎3.可适当增加细节,以使行文连贯。‎ Dear Jack,‎ I’ve known about your plan for the coming winter vacation, ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ Yours,‎ ‎ Li Hua - 15 -‎
