English and French enjoy equal status as the official languages of all government agencies in Canada. This means that the public has the right to communicate with and receive services from government in either English or French. Government employees have the right to work in the official language of their choice in certain bilingual regions.‎ Like the United States, Canada started as a colony. Beginning in the 1500s it was part of New France but later became a British colony after the Seven Years’ War. As a result, the Canadian government recognized the languages of both colonizers: France and England. The Constitution (宪法)Act of 1867 admitted the use of both languages in federal courts. Years later, Canada strengthened its commitment to bilingualism when it passed the Official Languages Act of 1969, which reconfirmed the constitutional origins of its co official languages.‎ Recognition of both English and French protects the rights of all Canadians. Among other benefits, the 1969 Act recognized the Canadian citizens should be able to access federal laws and government documents, whether their native language was French or English. The general law also requires that consumer products feature bilingual packaging throughout the country.‎ The Canadian government is committed to advancing the equality and the use of English and French and provides support to the development of English and French minority communities. However, the reality is that most Canadians speak English, and of course, many Canadians speak another language entirely.‎ Although the federal government theoretically guarantees bilingual services in all areas, there are many regions where English is the clear majority language so the government does not offer services in French in those regions. Canadians use the phrase "where numbers justify "to indicate whether a local populations language requires bilingual services from the government.‎ While many Canadians are bilingual in English and French, Statistics. Canada finds that over 200 other languages were reported as a language spoken by its people.‎ ‎ About two-thirds of the respondents who spoke one of these languages also spoke either English or French ‎24. Why are two official languages accepted in Canada?‎ A. The welcome attitude towards people coming from all over the world B. The theoretical commitment made by Canadian courts in the past C. The language-using tradition caused by Canada's colonial history D. The mastery of two languages of Canadians because of school education ‎25. What is the current situation of official languages in Canada?‎ A. There are more people speaking English than French in some parts of Canada B. People speaking English are superior because of their access to federal laws C. Federal governments have to provide bilingual services to all citizens in Canada D. French minority communities are given more support due to their language-using history ‎26. What can we infer from the passage?‎ A. The legal court usage of French and English was established in Canada in 1969.‎ B. English has gained superior legal position to French because of bigger users in Canada C. Either French or English should be used on products in Canada according to the law D. Some Canadians in certain districts might speak neither English nor French ‎27. Which is the best title of the passage?‎ A. Canada, a Multiple-language Land B. The Official Languages in Canada C. Balancing English and French in Canada D. Advancing English and French in Canada ‎ C Everyone has positive thinking and negative thinking Positive thinking is a significant element of happiness. In order to become a positive thinker, determination and consistency are important. The first thing to know about positive thinking is that everyone can do it. With certain cognitive (认知的) and behavioral changes, we can all become positive thinkers. Another important factor is that ‎ being a positive thinker does not mean you become numb to anything that is not working properly in your life or is negative - it just means that you approach life and face challenges with a healthier outlook.‎ Instead of selectively attending to negative events, focus on the positive ones. Then pay attention to the delayed consequences of your behavior rather than the immediate ones. For example, if a job is not going like you want, focus on the fact that you have a job and how you can take your time to make the situation better.‎ Challenge any internal attributions and see if you compare your behavior to standards that are excessively rigid and perfectionistic. If so, change these and be reasonable with your.comparisons. For example, if you constantly compare your weaknesses with other people's strengths, then switch this and compare yourself with those who are doing poorer than you as well. Overall, people who focus more on their strengths than their weaknesses but at the same time are aware of their weaknesses have a healthier self-evaluation result.‎ When faced with too much fear about a situation, imagine the worst case and visualize a solution for it, then let go of fear. This way, you will be prepared for anything and your fear will not block you from being open and creative to different solutions. For example, if you are constantly worried about losing your job up to a point where it is creating a lot of anxiety and fear and is effecting your performance and your happiness negatively, then think of losing your job, visualize how you will handle it, find solutions in your mind and then let go of the thought and the fear attached to it.‎ So positive thinkers are better problem solvers and have better interactions. In addition to that, people who are positive thinkers are happier and more satisfied with their life.‎ ‎28. Why is positive thinking a significant element of- happiness?‎ A. It means that one is blind to the troubles and difficulties that exist.‎ B. It means that one constantl y compares everything with other people's.‎ C. It means that one approaches life and faces challenges more healthily.‎ D. It means that one is strong in mind and has nothing to be afraid of.‎ ‎29. What does the text suggest about the job you don't like?‎ A. Keeping and trying to make it better.‎ B. Quitting it and finding a better one.‎ C. Being negative and numb to it.‎ D. Challenging yourself with a new outlook.‎ ‎30. What does the author intend to tell us in paragraph 4?‎ A. There is nothing to fear if well prepared.‎ B. Be prepared for the worst: and let go of fear.‎ C. Being constantly worried will lose your job.‎ D. Fear will prevent you being open and creative.‎ ‎31. What can be a suitable title for the text?‎ A. How to focus on the positive events B. What to know of self-evaluation C. What to do when faced with fear D. How to be a positive thinker D While weather forecasters can make fairly accurate predictions, there's always the risk you'll be caught out while driving in the rain. But the days of having to quickly close your sunroof could soon be a thing of the past thanks to Jaguar Land Rovefs latest technology.The firm is developing cars that can adapt automatically by closing windows and roofs or starting the heater if they detect bad weather is on the way. The weather forecasting system uses a set of air pressure, humidity（湿度）and light sensors（传感器）to help its vehicles predict changes in conditions and adapt to them. Cars equipped with the system could make slight changes to the air conditioning if it finds the weather is getting warmer during a journey or increase the cabin temperature if it will get colder.‎ The forecast may indicate there is a possibility of one or more weather conditions, such as rain, within a period of time, such as five minutes. The vehicle may then adapt to the local weather conditions. In particular, it may close one or more windows, or close a roof of the vehicle in response to a forecast being a sign ‎ of rain. Similarly windows could be darkened using electrochromic (电致变色的) glass to improve visibility if bright sunshine is forecast.‎ ‎ Although its unclear whether this technology will make its way to a production vehicle anytime soon, such a system would be advantageous on autonomous vehicles. Since there's no human driver present, the system will allow the vehicle to make it comfortable for its passengers, based on current weather conditions. It can also make the vehicle safer if it knows rain or snow is coming.‎ ‎32. How will Jaguar Land Rovefs latest technology benefit drivers?‎ A. Vehicles can automatically drive themselves.‎ B. Vehicles can act as mobile weather forecasting stations.‎ C. Vehicles can find positions and routes themselves,‎ D. Vehicles can open windows and sunroofs automatically.‎ ‎33. What is the feature of the glass of a vehicle with the new technology?‎ A. Its colour can change with the sunshine. B. It can still be clear in rainy days.‎ C. It is too strong to break into pieces. D. It can help adjust the temperature.‎ ‎34. What can we know about the weather forecasting system from the text?‎ A. It makes autonomous cars safer in bad weather. B. It makes the driver more comfortable.‎ C. It can't predict the weather accurately. D. It is intelligent enough to stop raining.‎ ‎35. Where might the text be taken from? ‎ A. A book review . B. A science fiction. C. A science report. D. A travel brochure.‎ 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。‎ Language , in a broad sense, is the way information is expressed. It can be spoken or seen.Language is part of our daily lives, no matter where we live in the world. It is the same with music, whether you listen to it on the radio on your drive to ‎ work or sit before an orchestra. Both language and music play a huge role in our culture. 36 .‎ Both language and music have a writing system.‎ In English we record language using the alphabet, which is a collection of letters. In the same way, we use notes to keep a record of music. Just as you are reading this collection of letters on the screen and find meaning in it, musicians read notes and create meaning in the form of music. 37 By writing pieces of text or music, we are able to share experiences through time. I can read the ideas or hear the composition of someone who lived hundreds of years ago, which is really quite exciting.‎ ‎ 38 ‎ You can make a good guess at where someone is from by listening to the language they use. In the same way, styles of music are different around the world, giving us the opportunity to explore many different cultures through their music and providing us with music for every situation. 39 Even if you don’t like Britpop melodies, you may love the energy of Latin American salsa music. ‎ Both share emotion.‎ How do you know that I am angry? 40 , but you will know for sure through my words. Similarly, music can sound angry, sad or happy. Music can show you exactly how the composer was or is feeling, and allows us to share in that emotion. When you feel happy, you might want to sing and dance to a happy song to celebrate your happiness. In contrast, you have probably also listened to sad music when you were feeling down.‎ A. So just as you read English, you can read music B.This also means everyone can learn language and music well!‎ C. Usually I never say anything about it,‎ D.This also means that there is something for everyone!‎ E. Both vary with culture.‎ F. .Of course you may be able to see it in my face,‎ G. Here are some of their similarities.‎ 第三部分 语言知识运用（共两节，满分45分）‎ 第一节 完形填空（共20小题；每小题1.5分，满分30分）‎ 阅读下面的短文，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，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。‎ My mother always teaches me how to be useful man to others.Naughty as I was,she always believes in me.

My practices and suggestions are as follows. ‎ ‎ As far as I know, many non-native speakers find it difficult to write a good hand, which needs long-term and persistent exercise even for native speakers of Chinese. As senior high school students in China, we are required to write Chinese characters frequently, trying best to write them carefully, regularly, neatly clearly and beautifully. We started from our primary school with writing strokes of Chinese characters, keeping the rules of writing and the teachers’ instructions. ‎ ‎ So starting from the ground up, setting your writing as a daily task, and following a model of calligraphy for practice may help you a lot. Keep on trying. Hopefully, you will make it.‎ Yours sincerely, Li Hua
