Leaving Auckland fairly early in the morning, I soon got lifts. I enjoyed the friendly conversation and was lucky enough to have made some distance by dusk.‎ As I walked along a country road, I wondered where I would spend the night. It was summer and the weather was warm so I thought I could sleep under a tree. An elderly gentleman greeted me and asked me where I was headed. I replied that I was hoping to get to the next town, “Op-o-tike”. He laughed and asked if I meant “Opotike”. Being English, I was not familiar with the correct pronunciation and embarrassedly replied that I was. “You won’t get there before dark,” he said. “So some with me and we will put you up for the night.”‎ Opotiki was a further 25 km away, so I followed him to a comfortable, warm house nearby. He introduced me to his wife who was in the process of preparing dinner. Before long I was enjoying a nice cup of tea followed by a beef casserole (炖牛肉)。 After dinner I was shown to my room: an old bus that was parked in the back garden. It had a double bed in it and I had a very comfortable night’s sleep. My host told me that he was used to being up early and would wake me.‎ In the morning I woke to a cup of tea and a nice hot breakfast. Then the lady handed me a wrapped-up sandwich, saying that it should keep me going until I reached Opotike. We had a hug and said goodbye to each other. I have never forgotten their amazing kindness.‎ ‎24. Why did the author choose to get lifts?‎ A. He didn’t have a license.‎ B. He enjoyed talking to drivers.‎ C. He was lacking in money.‎ D.

Kindness is the golden chain by which society is united.‎ D. True love stories never have endings.‎ C Phone batteries rarely last a full day anymore, so carrying compact chargers (小巧的充电器) is becoming normal. But many of these so-called portable devices are heavy, thick and inconvenient – until Solar Paper is developed.‎ Chicago engineers have designed a super-thin, lightweight panel called Solar Paper capable of charging an iPhone in two hours and multiple panels can be combined to boost its power. It was created by Chicago-based Yolk. After raising more than $1 million online for the production, it is now available to purchase throughout the country. It comes in four versions – 2.5W, 5W, 7.5W and 10W – depending on the output needed for various devices. And these different models are created by combining individual 2.5W panels together.‎ A 2.5 W panel will charge an iPhone 6 or Galaxy S3 in five hours. The 5W version charges the same devices but cuts charging time to two hours or three hours if it’s cloudy. The 7.5W model Solar Paper charges the devices in the same time as the 5W version but produces more energy when it is cloudy. The 10W version is ideal for the iPad Air 2, and will charge a device in 2.5 hours. Each individual panel measures 3.5 inches ×6.7 inches ×0.6 inches, weighs 60g and is 1.5mm ‎ thick.‎ Other features include a unique automatic reset (重置) function which stops and starts the Paper charging when cast with a shadow or placed in sunlight. Other solar chargers require you to re-plug (重播) the wire at these conditions. It also has an low-energy LCD screen that displays the amount of power the Solar Paper Produces in real time.‎ ‎28. What is the author’s purpose in writing the text?‎ A. To introduce the strengths of solar chargers.‎ B. To praise Chicago engineers for their efforts.‎ C. To advise producers to keep phone batteries last long.‎ D. To introduce a new type of solar charger.‎ ‎29. What does the underlined word “boost” in the second paragraph mean?‎ A. Increase.‎ B. Balance.‎ C. Possess.‎ D. Reduce.‎ ‎30. How is Solar Paper different from other solar chargers?‎ A. It can be carried wherever you go.‎ B. It can get reconnected automatically after a shadow.‎ C. It can produce power more electricity.‎ D. It can produce power even if it’s rainy.‎ ‎31. What can we know about the Solar Paper?‎ A. The LCD screen shows how much current an iPhone uses.‎ B. Customers are able to buy Solar Paper all over the world.‎ C. The 7.5W version is the best choice if users charge an iPad.‎ D. Yolk started an online activity to fund production of Solar Paper.‎ D Everybody likes to laugh sometimes, whether at a funny joke, an amusing incident or a funny photograph or sound. Comedians who copy well known people always tickle (胳肢) my funny bone! The great thing is that once we’ve had a good laugh, we feel happier. It would seem that bringing a bit of humour into more serious situations might be good for us.‎ Maybe we should get inspiration from Steve Carlisle, president of General Motors of Canada. When he walks around the firm’s Ontario headquarters he shares his sense of humour to bond with his staff. He says “It can help people feel more relaxed, more comfortable and thus be more effective at what they do.” Humour can be used by teachers in the classroom too. It’s a good way to break the ice with students and create a more relaxed atmosphere which is good for learning, as long as everyone doesn’t spend all their time in hysterics!‎ But we have to be careful; not everyone laughs at the same things. While some of us may admire a work colleague or fellow student for their clever and well-told joke, others may consider them sarcastic, offensive or just an idiot! According to Professor Schweitzer, from the University of Philadelphia’s Wharton School, a worker or boss who successfully uses humour is seen as both confident and competent, which in turn increases his or her status.‎ So telling the right jokes in the office or classroom can spread some happiness but if you still think working and studying is no laughing matter, take note of a study published in The Journal of Behavioural and Applied Management in 2006, that found for healthcare workers, emotional exhaustion was significantly lower among those who experienced greater levels of fun at work. And other research has discovered that teams who share more jokes gave more supportive and constructive statements to each other – and that’s no joke!‎ ‎32. How does the author prove the effect of humour in Paragraph 2?‎ A. By giving examples.‎ B. By making comparison.‎ C. By presenting the process.‎ D. By analyzing cause and effect.‎ ‎33. How can a worker increases his position according to Professor Schweitzer?‎ A. By taking his job seriously.‎ B. By working harder than others.‎ C. By getting along well with his boss.‎ D. By telling the right jokes successfully.‎ ‎34. What is the author’s attitude towards homour?‎ A. Doubtful.‎ B. Positive.‎ C. Casual.‎ D. Critical.‎ ‎35. What is the best title for the text?‎ A. Humour is Rude B. Seriousness and Humour C. Humour Makes a Difference D. How to Be Humorous 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。‎ How do you feel about exams? Is it the one thing you fear or an experience you enjoy because it’s your time to shine? If you’re anxious about your exams, don’t worry. 36 ‎ Eating the right food can feed your brain and keep you sharp. 37 Energy-giving oats (燕麦) and eggs contain a nutrient that can improve memory as we age. And don’t forget to drink lots of water. Some research even suggests students who take water into the exam hall may even improve their grades.‎ A good night’s sleep can help you work and think better next day when preparing for exams. If you get good sleep, your memory is better. You can remember the information you have reviewed. 38 ‎ Preparing for exams can also sometimes seem non-stop. 39 There comes a point when your brain can’t absorb any more information, so you’ll also need to know when to stop.‎ ‎ 40 They’re there to support you but they’ll be biting their fingernails, worrying about you and the final results. So maybe you need to give them some advice – calm down, everything will be OK!‎ A. A good way to reduce your stress is to write down your anxieties.‎ B. Whether you love or dislike them, you will face some anxieties before the big day.‎ C. Therefore, it’s good to take breaks and reward yourself with a small treat, like a cake.‎ D. Nutritionists recommend making breakfast the most important meal of the day.‎ E. And it’s good to relax before bedtime too – no watching TV or chatting on social media!‎ F. You can absorb some good advice from people who’ve been through the same experience as ‎ you.‎ G. Above all, remember that there are some people who will always be more nervous than you: your parents!‎ 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A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。‎ The Olympic Games were being held in Berlin in 1936.
