To the public, he’s best known as an author of bestsellers such as The Universe in a Nutshell and A Brief History of Time, which have brought an appreciation of theoretical (理论上的) physics to millions. He is regarded as having one of the brightest minds on the planet. But outstanding astrophysicist (天体物理学家) Stephen Hawking has admitted that he did not learn to read until he was eight years old.‎ In a public lecture at the Royal Albert Hall, Professor Hawking also admitted that he was not active in studying while at Oxford University, where he studied physics, and that only the news that he might die young from motor neurone (运动神经元) disease made him focus on his work.‎ Professor Hawking said, “My sister Philippa could read by the age of 4 but then she was brighter than me.” He said that he was common at school and was never further than halfway up his class. “My classwork was very untidy, and my handwriting was very bad in the teachers’ eyes,” he said. “But my classmates gave me the name Einstein, so probably they saw signs of something better.”‎ But he said that it was when doctors told him that he probably only had a few years to live at the age of 21 that he began to focus on his work, which resulted in some of his early achievements. He said, “When you are faced with the possibility of an early death, it makes you realize that life is worth living and there are lots of things you want to do.” Hawking served as Lucasian Professor of Mathematics at the University of Cambridge, where he continued to contribute to both high-level physics and the popular understanding of our universe.‎ ‎21. What made Stephen Hawking devote himself to his work?‎ A. Patience. B. Knowledge. C. Disease. D. Laziness.‎ ‎22. From whom did Hawking get a fair judgment when he was at school?‎ A. His sister. B. His classmates. C. His teachers. D. His parents.‎ ‎23. What can we learn from the last paragraph?‎ A. Hawking didn’t realize his dreams in physics.‎ B. Hawking succeeded in overcoming the fear of an early death.‎ C. The purpose of the doctor was to encourage him to work hard.‎ D. The doctor warned Hawking that his life might be taken away by hard work.‎ B Sandra Cisneros was born in Chicago in 1954 to a Mexican American family. As the only girl in a family of seven children, she often felt like she had "seven fathers ", because her six brothers, as well as her father, tried to control her. Feeling shy and unimportant, she hid herself into books. Despite her love of reading, she did not do well in elementary school because she was too shy to participate.‎ In high school, with the encouragement of one particular teacher, Cisneros improved her grades and worked for the school literary magazine. Her father encouraged her to go to college because he thought it would be a good way for her to find a husband. Cisneros did attend college, but instead of searching for a husband, she found a teacher who helped her join the famous graduate writing program at the University of Iowa. At the University's Writers' Workshop, however, she felt lonely—a Mexican American from a poor neighborhood among students from wealthy families. The feeling of being so different helped Cisneros find her "creative voice".‎ ‎"It was not until this moment when I considered myself truly different that my writing acquired a voice. I knew I was a Mexican woman, but I didn't think it had anything to do with why ‎ I felt so much imbalanced in my life, but it had everything to do with it! That's when I decided I would write about something my classmates couldn't write about."‎ Cisneros published her first work, The House on Mango Street , when she was twenty-nine. The book tells about a young Mexican American girl growing up in a Spanish-speaking area in Chicago, much like the neighborhoods in which Cisneros lived as a child. The book won an award in 1985 and has been used in classes from high school through graduate school level. Since then, Cisneros has published several books of poetry, a children's book, and a shortstory collection.‎ 24. Which of the following is TRUE about Cisneros in her childhood?‎ A. She had seven brothers. ‎ B. She felt herself a nobody.‎ C. She was too shy to go to school. ‎ D. She did not have any good teachers.‎ ‎25. The graduate program gave Cisneros a chance to _______ .‎ A. make a lot of friends B. develop her writing style C. run away from her family D. work for a school magazine ‎26. According to Cisneros, what played the decisive role in her success?‎ A. Her early years in college. B. Her childhood experience.‎ C. Her training in the Workshop. D. Her feeling of being different.‎ ‎27. What do we learn about The House on Mango Street ？‎ A. It is quite popular among students. ‎ B. It is the only book ever written by Cisneros.‎ C. It wasn't a success as it was written in Spanish. ‎ D. It won an award when Cisneros was twenty-nine.‎ C ‎ Nikola Tesla Long overshadowed in public memory by his one-time employer, Thomas Edison, Tesla (1856—1943) was a brilliant scientist and engineer who earned more than 700 patents. He is most famous for developing alternating current (交流电), but his work also led to advances in wireless communications, lasers, X-rays, radar, lighting, robotics, and much more.‎ Tesla was born to Serbian parents in what is now Croatia, but he emigrated(移民) to the U.S. as a young man, where he eventually became a naturalized citizen. Besides Edison, who later became his bitter rival, Tesla often worked with inventor George Westinghouse. In 1893, the pair demonstrated their advances in lighting and motors in the "White City" at the Chicago World’s Fair. In 1895, Tesla and Westinghouse developed the world’s first hydroelectric power plant, at Niagara Falls.‎ At the turn of the century, Tesla set up a laboratory called Wardenclyffe in the small community of Shoreham, Long Island, where he conducted some of his most ambitious experiments. The building was financed by J. P. Morgan and designed by acclaimed architect Stanford White.‎ The most prominent feature was Wardenclyffe Tower, also called Tesla Tower, a 187-foot-tall metal lattice tower topped with a big antenna that was intended to beam communications and even energy across the Atlantic.Tesla ran out of money while building the tower and was foreclosed(取消赎回权) on twice. As with his previous Colorado Springs lab, assets were sold to pay up his debts. In 1917, the U.S. government blew up the tower, fearing that German spies were using it in World War I. The metal was sold for scrap. For decades, the building was used for photo processing.‎ ‎"The tower is long gone, but the three-quarter-length statue of Tesla unveiled last week is a fitting memorial," said Alcorn, a retired teacher. "This is the last remaining Tesla laboratory anywhere in the world," she said. "He inspires those who work hard but don’t get recognition, and people are starting to recognize how important his contributions are."‎ As a sign of that growing appreciation, Elon Musk’s start-up electric car company Tesla Motors was named after the visionary inventor in 2003.‎ ‎28. We can infer from Para.1 that Tesla belong to those .‎ A. who aren’t brilliant enough as an inventor ‎ B. who work hard but don’t get recognition C. who have worked only for one employer ‎ D. who helped Edison to earn many patents ‎29. Which of the following can be seen as a sign of growing appreciation towards Tesla?‎ A. An electric car company was named after him. ‎ B. A new statue of him was built in Croatia.‎ C. People collect money to rebuild Tesla Tower. ‎ D. A lab was opened as a museum to Tesla.‎ ‎30. The purpose of writing this passage is to .‎ A. explain why a car company was named Tesla ‎ B. introduce the achievements of Tesla C. inspire us to learn from a famous scientist ‎ D. record the contribution made by Tesla in WWI 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。‎ ‎31 You are not alone if you have had problems with your writing. Writing is hard. All writers struggle at some point. And even if writing has come easily for you, at some point in your work as a student, eventually you’re going to hit a roadblock (路障). 32 When the writing was going well, what was happening? When the writing wasn’t going well,what was happening?‎ ‎33 Most people’s negative writing experiences happened because of some specific requirements like an exact length. They focus on and worry about what the final product has to look like, like how many pages for a research essay. Or if it is in the second or third language, or grammar, like whether it gets communicated in the right language.‎ Another problem can arise when the need to do well on a paper is extremely important, like a timed essay exam, or a college application essay, or a research paper at the end of the term, and it’s tied to the entire grade for the class. So worrying about what will happen if they don’t do well — get bad grades, don’t get into college — creates anxiety. 34‎ Try to move to more positive projects. Usually when writing comes easily, the writers feel they have something important to say. 35 What personal understanding of the subject can you bring to your paper? Why is this subject important? For whom is it meaningful? Who will be reading it? What is it that you really want to say to readers? Those thoughts can cause writing’s change for all writers.‎ A. Grammar is not the first thing to think about.‎ B. The teacher advises asking yourself positive questions.‎ C. So take a moment to think about your past writing experiences.‎ D. And that can make it harder to get the writing done.‎ E. Everyone struggles with writing.‎ F. Writing comes with few problems.‎ G. Focusing on the end makes it really hard to get started.‎ 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。‎ For the past ten years, my dad and I have attended the same school—he as an administrator and I as a student.

I called a senior center and they suggested Use. She was a stubborn 78- year-old lady, who favored sequined（亮片的）T-shirts.‎ On Thanksgiving, within minute of arriving, Use welcomed the glass of wine my husband offered with a wide smile. By the end of the evening, we felt as if we were old friends. The more time I spent with Ilse, the more she became like a surrogate （替代的）grandma. So when her only son Ralph died, I realized she was too upset to be left alone and helped her hire a caregiver. For me, she was like a family and I was the only one left in her tribe.‎ Each time I stopped by her apartment, Ilse seemed more disconnected than the time before. Late one afternoon, when I called her, I was unable to understand what she was saying. I drove her to the emergency room, where the doctor confirmed she had suffered a mild stroke. During the next few days, I dropped by her apartment, but she was no longer the energetic, stubborn Ilse I knew. At the end of the week, I received an early-morning phone call from her caregiver. " Please come over now," the woman said, her voice matter-of- fact. "She's passed away. ” When I arrived, I saw Ilse lying on her bed, motionless, her eyes closed. I sat on the edge of the bed, too shocked to cry.‎ 注意：‎ ‎1. 所续写短文的词数应为150词左右；‎ ‎2. 至少使用5个短文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:‎ The morning after Ilse's death, I read through her will and saw my name. ‎ ‎_________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________‎ Paragraph 2:‎ I donated the money to a cause she cared about deeply: children. ‎ ‎________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________‎ ‎【参考答案】‎ 听 力： 1-5 ABBAC 6-10 BCCBA 11-15 BCAAC 16-20 BACBA 阅 读： 21-23 CBB 24-27 BBDA 28-30 BAB 七选五： 31-35 ECGDB 完形填空：36-40 BBCAC 41-45 DADBB 46-50 AADBC 51-55 DACBC 语篇填空：‎ ‎56. was understood 57. terrified 58. the 59. until ‎ ‎60. that/which 61.multiplied 62. into 63. to begin ‎ ‎64. certainty 65. Finally 第四部分 第一节 One possible version:‎ Good morning, dear friends. My name is Li Jin. I'd like to take this opportunity to talk about how I learn English on the Internet. First, download the word book and use the flexible time to remember words. I set a goal to memorize 30 words every day. Second, look for specialized listening websites and practice listening every day. While listening, I imitate the materials to improve my oral English as well. Gradually, I find that I have improved a lot in vocabulary, listening and speaking.‎ Learning English on the Internet makes it possible for us to get useful information, know the latest news and widen our vision. It can save a lot of time and money at the same time. However, every coin has two sides. Long time studying online does harm to our eyes and health. We should arrange our time reasonably.‎ Looking forward to your students sharing their experience.‎ Thank you.‎ 第二节 One possible version:‎ Paragraph 1‎ The morning after Ilse's death, I read through her will and saw my name. She had left me a large sum of money. I didn’t remember her saying anything about it. If she had, I would have ‎ insisted she donate the money to charity or give it to a friend she had known longer. I couldn’t accept the money because Ilse was a friend and I’d helped her out of loyalty and respect, not with the expectation of being paid.‎ Paragraph 2‎ I donated the money to a cause she cared about deeply: children. Various families and charities benefited from her donations. Some families received funds to send their grade-schoolers to summer camp. Through the local food program, her donation provided children with food to take home with them. My placing a phone call to the senior center and meeting Ilse had definitely made my life richer. I took a chance on humanity, and Ilse’s friendship was the jackpot.‎
