Kelly, Dora or Obama. These people are great in their own rights(凭他们自身的努力), but that’s not enough reason to spend your time living out a life just trying to be an image of 38 person. This same question is not just limited to kids and teens; ask adults and they’d also tell you they want to be like Bill Gates or Ellen Sirleaf Johnson. We live in a world in which people are from different backgrounds. Some are born with silver spoons and others with no spoon at all. We live in a world of 39 and solutions, obstacles and stepping-stones, depending on where you are looking. Most of us spend our time and energy 40 shoes to fit into, leaving ours behind, trying to live life and 41 the way our role models do. It’s good but that’s not the chief factor that we’d be like them, because we’d be surprised that we’ll fall short of our expectations if we spend much energy 42 the wind. Genius is 1% inspiration and 99% perspiration, so it’s 43 that we all have the 1% in our genetic make-up but we need to work hard. Now, I’m not trying to say it’s 44 to want to be like somebody else; all I’m trying to say is that you were born here for a reason — You were given an empty book to write your life in. I wouldn’t want your book to be 45 with how so-so and so is but rather how “I am”. For as you go around trying out people’s 46 , who’s going to try yours? Even if you don't become successful in life, 47 yourself with the thought that at least your shoes are worth trying out. 36. A. Fortunately B. Generally C. Surprisingly D. Curiously 37. A. teenagers B. adults C. girls D. elders 38. A. another B. any C. each D. other 39. A. opportunities B. successes C. challenges D.achievements 40. A. holding up B. looking for C. taking up D. caring for 41. A. stay B. insist C. continue D. act 42. A. removing B. chasing C. avoiding D. changing 43. A. strange B. funny C. likely D. clear 44. A. bad B. hard C. natural D. good 45. A. provided B. filled C. painted D. charged 46. A. clothes B. trousers C. shoes D. jackets 47. A. forgive B. comfort C. remind D. consider Part Ⅲ: Reading Comprehension (30分) A Mr. Dawson was an old bad-tempered(坏脾气的) man, and everyone in town knew it. Kids knew not to go into his yards to pick apples, because old Dawson, they said, would come after you with his gun. One Friday, 12-year-old Janet was walking out with her friend Amy. They had to go by Dawson’s house, but as they got close Janet saw him sitting on his front porch and suggested they cross over the street. Like most, she was scared of the old man. Amy said not to worry. When they got close enough, Dawson looked up with his usual frown(皱眉), but when he saw it was Amy, he gave a big smile. Amy smiled back and told him Janet was staying overnight with her and they were going to listen to music and play games. Dawson told them that sounded fun, and gave them each an apple. Later, Janet asked Amy, “Everyone says he’s the meanest man in town. How come he was so nice to us?” Amy explained that when she first started walking past his house he wasn’t very friendly, but she pretended he was wearing an invisible smile and so she always smiled. It took a while, but one day he half smiled back. After a while, he started smiling real smiles and then talked to her. She said he always offers an apple now, and is always very kind. If we remember that everyone wears an invisible smile, we too will find that most people can’t resist our kindness after a while. We are always busy trying to achieve so much that we forget how simply we can bring cheer to ourselves and others. Giving a smile takes so little effort; let’s make sure that we’re not the ones that others have to pretend are wearing invisible smile 56. Why didn't kids enter Mr. Dawson’s yard? A. The gate was kept locked. B. Mr. Dawson never smiled. C. They would make trouble. D. Mr. Dawson treated them badly. 57. Janet suggested walking on the other side of the street to ______. A. meet some other friends B. find out where Mr. Dawson was C. avoid passing by Mr. Dawson’s house D. see what Mr. Dawson was doing. 58. What did Mr. Dawson do when he saw Amy? A. He smiled on her. B. He forced an invisible smile. C. He came after her with his gun. D. He frowned as usual. 59. Janet couldn’t understand why _______. A. Amy was kind to Mr. Dawson B. Mr. Dawson was so friendly C. Mr. Dawson was so mean. D. Amy was not afraid of Mr. Dawson 60. The main idea of the last paragraph is that _______. A. smiling is not difficult at all B. smiling can make our life different C. we should bring more smiles to others D. we should wear invisible smiles B In the recent past there have been a number of amazing innovations in the world of 3D entertainment, from movie theater technology to what we see at home, to highly developed games. As time goes by and the technology becomes more and more affordable, it seems likely that viewing images with 3D glasses could become a part of day-to-day life for many. Now researchers say that might not be a good thing, as the dangers of 3D glasses come to light in research. 3D glasses can reportedly be very unhygienic(不卫生的). Health officials in Italy recently confiscated ( 没 收) 3D glasses that they claimed posed health risks because the 3D glasses weren’t cleaned properly between screenings. The other more obvious dangers of 3D glasses remain. Researchers at the University of California, Berkeley have found that viewing 3D movies with 3D glasses can strain the eyes by changing the relationship between the eyes and the brain. This can result in headaches and blurred vision, and it seems that the problem is particularly troubling for young children. Those who do experience these kinds of painful side effects should limit their 3D viewing, as long-term results haven’t been found. It seems certain that more expensive 3D glasses give you a better 3D experience, as cheaper glasses can create some shadowing. Getting a new pair of disposable( 一 次 性 的 ) glasses at the screening of a movie may be more hygienic, yet there is little evidence to prove whether high-quality 3D glasses are better for your vision and health in the long run. What should be done about the dangers of 3D? Well, the headaches and dizziness that some viewers experience can be reduced simply by lessening the amount of time spent using 3D technology, and those who experience the effects for a long period of time should consult their doctors. 61. What is the text mainly about? A. The recent innovations in 3D entertainment. B. The dangers of viewing images with 3D glasses. C. How to choose 3D glasses properly. D. How to prevent the harm of 3D glasses. 62. Health officials in Italy confiscated 3D glasses because ________. A. they were believed to be unhealthy B. they were too expensive C. they were not of high quality D. they were used too much 63. What can we learn from the second paragraph？ A. 3D glasses pose no threat to adults. B. The dangers of 3D glasses are not obvious. C. The side effects of 3D glasses can disappear quickly. D. Children should be especially cautious about using 3D glasses. 64. We can infer from the third paragraph 3D glasses of high quality ______. A. pose no danger to your health B. improve your eyesight C. are not necessarily safe D. are more hygienic 65. How can we prevent the dangers of 3D? A. Limit the time of watching with 3D glasses. B. Wear high-quality 3D glasses. C. Clean 3D glasses now and then. D. Keep a distance from the screen. C Do you know what your child is going to do when the school bell rings at the end of the day? More than 14 million students leave school every afternoon and have nowhere to go, since they do not have access to affordable after-school opportunities. According to the National Youth Violence Prevention Resource Center(NYVPRC), nine out of ten Americans think all youths should have access to after-school programs, but two-thirds of parents say they have trouble finding programs locally. The bad news is that the situation may be getting worse. After-school hours are the peak time for juvenile crimes and risky behaviors, including alcohol and drug use. The NYVPRC states that children who do not spend any time in after-school activities are 49 percent more likely to use drugs and 37 percent more likely to become a teen parent. Kids are also at the highest risk of becoming a victim of violence after school, particularly between the hours of 2 p.m. and 6 p.m. The highest amount of juvenile crime occurs between 3 p.m. and 4 p.m., when most children are dismissed from school. The NYVPRC defines after-school programs as safe and structured activities that offer children opportunities to learn new skills. The skills students learn can range from technology and math to reading and art. Some programs also offer opportunities for internship(实习), community service, or mentoring. These programs have been shown to improve academic achievement, as well as relieve the stresses on working families. A report by the U. S. Department of Education and the U.S. Department of Justice shows that students in after-school programs have fewer behavioral problems and more self-confidence, and can handle conflicts better than students who are not involved with these programs. In addition, according to the Harvard Family Research Project, after-school programs help students from low-income families overcome the inequities(不公平) they face in the school system. 66. What is the theme of the passage? A. Prevention of juvenile crimes. B. Risks kids face after school. C. A research report on the stresses of students. D. The benefits of after-school programs. 67. Which of the following is TRUE according to the first paragraph? A. Most parents don't believe in after-school programs. B. Students are not willing to attend after-school programs. C. It is difficult for parents to find after-school programs for their kids. D. Parents don't care about where their kids go after school. 68. We learn from the second paragraph that ______. A. the teachers should watch over kids after school B. children are dismissed from school too late C. after-school hours are a risky time for children D. children should go home immediately school is over 69. The author of the passage probably _______. A. fully supports after-school programs B. doubts the effects of after-school programs C. believes structured activities are useless for children D. thinks students today are too stressed 70. The underlined word “juvenile” in paragraph has a similar meaning to “_______”. A. student B. teenager C. adult D. campus Part Ⅳ: Writing Section A (10分) Directions: Read the following passage. Complete the diagram by using the information for the passage. Write NO MORE THAN 3 WORDS for each answer. Experiencing bad dreams every night can be horrifying for anybody. Bad dreams can disturb the sleep and make a person feel stressed throughout the next day. That’s why one should take steps to stop them as soon as they become an everyday occurrence. Before knowing how to get rid of bad dreams, we need to understand what can result in them. Researches have shown that when a person is under some sort of physical or mental stress, he is more likely to get bad dreams and disturbed sleep. So, to stop bad dreams, it’s necessary to find out the causes of physical and mental stress in your life and remove these. For instance, if you’re overworked, learn to take things slow. Don’t be ambitious to the point that it starts affecting your health. Besides, some trauma(损伤) that a person might have experienced recently or in the past which they’re unable to get over can make the person suffer from bad dreams. Death of a very close family member is often seen to be the reason behind recurrent nightmares. In such a case, taking therapy and dealing with the trauma is the only solution to stop bad dreams. Eating fatty and high-protein foods in dinner is also known to cause bad dreams in some people. So, bad dreams occurring because of these reasons can be stopped if the diet is changed. Taking a light dinner of soups and salad is the best, both for the health and for stopping disturbed sleep in some cases. Besides these, there are many other things a person can do to have a good night’s sleep. For example, your bedroom should be the most comfortable place in the world. So, get rid of all electronic gadgets including television. In addition, if you have negative thoughts, it can have side effects on the kind of dreams you have. So, from now on try to be a happy and positive person.

One possible version: A good relationship benefit us all As a middle school student, I think it necessary to build a good relationship with our teachers. Teachers show love and concern for us students in study and life. We students can always seek support and advice from them, from which we benefit and learn a great deal. A good relationship between teachers and students is very important. In my opinion, this relationship should be one filled with love, care, understanding and respect, so we can exchange ideas freely. To build a relationship of this kind, teachers should become our friends while we students ought to trust teachers and express our appreciation openly. Only by joint efforts can we enjoy a warm relationship between teachers and students, and live a happy and harmonious life. 2013 届高考英语一轮复习试题（2） 21. _______ in the 1800s and first mass-produced in Germany, the harmonica( 口 琴 ) was designed to play simple folk tunes.

I thought he looked a bit forlorn(被遗弃的) so I went over and sat next to him. After a few 36 about how nice the weather was and how there were a lot of ducks in the pond today, he told me how he used to come with his wife and watch the children feed the ducks with their mums. They didn't have any 37 of their own..So they cherished being together even more. He explained he had been married for 54 years 38 his wife died and how much he missed 39 all the little things with her, like a beautiful sunset. He now lives in a care home. I remarked at how wonderful it must've been to have been married for so long and to have so many happy memories. He took out a large 40 and wiped his eyes and said he had one regret that in all that time he 41 told her how much he really loved her. He showed me a photograph of them when they were young. The photo was taken more than 50 years ago. He couldn't believe how the time had 42 . I tried to comfort him by explaining that his wife would be still 43 over him and he could talk to her 44 he wants and that she knows how much he loved her because she can see into his heart. The old man tried to 45 for blurting out his life story but I hushed him and said how privileged I felt he could talk to me and how much it meant to me.

Increasingly, employers are looking for individuals who are not only competent and intelligent, but who have different skill sets and who are knowledgeable in many areas. Part of the appeal to employers is that your extra work demonstrates a willingness to take on difficult tasks. Additionally, if your majors overlap (重叠), you are able to show potential employers that you have both breadth and depth of knowledge. By studying for a double major, although you will be studying for only one degree, you will be focusing on two related and integrated subjects that complement (补充) each other. Classes overlap between the majors, meaning fewer classes are required than with a double degree, so it is easier to finish within four years. In contrast, with the more rigorous (严格的) double degree, you will be studying for two different degrees in two completely different areas of study. Although pursuing such a course of study allows students to complete two wholly separate degrees in less time than if they were to earn them separately, many strong students still find it incredibly difficult to complete in four or five years. If you are committed to a double major/degree, it is wise to do a little bit of planning. Some students try to find two courses of studies that are related, while others seek to round out their academic studies by choosing two completely unrelated fields. For double majors, common pairings include: (i) economics and a foreign language; (ii) political science or government and journalism; (iii) economics and psychology. For double degrees, common pairings include: (i) engineering and a business program such as finance or accounting; (ii) engineering and economics. 56. What do employers think of the graduates with different skill sets and knowledge in many areas? A. They should be given top jobs. B. They are willing to take difficult tasks. C. They are better than those who are competent and intelligent. D. They must have attained a double major or even a double degree. 57. According to the passage, the underlined word “breadth” most probably means_________. A. width B. amount C. quantity D. quality 58. To obtain a double major, you _________. A. should complete two wholly separate degrees B. need to focus on two related and integrated subjects C. need to spend more time than obtaining a double degree D. have to take courses in two completely different areas of study 59. If you are devoted to a double major or degree, you should _________. A. find two subjects with overlapping classes B. learn about what your potential employers want C. decide what to learn with your intentions considered D. try to decide on some common pairings as soon as possible 60. Which statement is CORRECT according to the passage? A. Economics is a major while engineering is a degree. B. Every college student should take a double major or degree. C. Earning a double degree is more difficult than obtaining a double major. D Some students choose two completely unrelated fields to show their ability in academic study. B CANYOUIMAGINEHOWHARDITWOULDBETOREADSENTENCESLIKETHIS? The ancient Greeks wrote this way. The lack of punctuation marks(标点符号) probably didn’t bother good readers, though. As they read, they just put pauses where they fit best. Also at this time, sentences switched directions. A sentence read from left to right. The next one read right to left, and then left to right again, etc. The ancient Romans sometimes punctuated like this: They·put·a·point·between·each·word·in·a·sentence. The word punctuation actually comes from this idea and the Latin word punctum, which means a prick(刺). When the 5th century arrived, there were just two punctuation marks: spaces and points. The space separated words and while the points showed pauses in reading. Then in the 13th century, a printer named Aldus Manutius tried to standardize punctuation. He always used a period for a complete stop at the end of a sentence. He used a slash (/) to indicate a short pause. Over time, that slash was shortened and curled, and it became the modern comma. Since that time, other marks have enlarged the punctuation family. The exclamation mark comes form the Latin word xt. It was originally formed by putting an upper-case(大写字母) I on the lower-case xt. The Latin word xt means “exclamation of joy.” The question mark originally started out as the Latin word question, meaning question. Eventually, scholars put it at the end of a sentence to show a question. Over time, it became a symbol formed by putting a lower-case q on an o. Punctuation is still changing today. New marks are coming into existence, and old punctuation marks are used in new ways. Take for example, the “interrobang.” This 1962 invention combines the question mark and exclamation mark for times when writers want both. For example, “She did what‽” or “How much did you pay for that dress‽” Obviously, the interrobang is not widely used or recognized – yet. But its invention shows that English is not yet finished with its punctuation. 61. Which of the following is a comma? A. , B. : C. ; D. ! 62. What’s the first paragraph mainly about? A. The history of punctuation. B. The introduction of punctuation. C. The very beginning of punctuation. D. The ancient Greek way of writing without punctuation. 63. Please put the following events in the order they happened. a. The exclamation mark and question mark came into the punctuation family. b. Comma came into existence. c. Romans put a dot between words to separate words. d. A period was used to end a sentence. e. The “interrobang” was invented. A. cbdae B. dcbae C. dbcea D. cdbae 64. What is the most possible situation for “She did what‽”? A. You are told she gave her baby boy a good beat. B. You are wondering what she did to save the poor boy. C. You want to know what she did for a living after fleeing to a foreign country. D. You demand someone else tell you what in the world happened to her. 65. According to the article, we learn ________. A. punctuation didn’t come into being until the 5th century. B. no one can really tell what new marks we may have in the future. C. the invention of “interrobang” is a failure since it is not widely used. D. both the exclamation mark and the question mark come from Greek words. C It was a party. I was 18 and it was fresher(大一新生) week. I was at the beginning of a course in English Literature and full of enthusiasm for my subject. She was also 18 and enrolled in a course in physics. “Your major is of no use to society. What will you do with it when you graduate, other than teach? Plus, you’re going to be poor your whole life,” she said. “You have no soul and your degree is boring. I don’t care how much money you’re going to earn. I’d rather be poor and don’t mind being a teacher. If I love my work I’ll have something far more meaningful than a big bank account!” came the reply. And so it went, back and forth, neither of us giving the other an inch, each of us stubbornly committed to our prejudice. We were both ignorant, but our ignorance was also society’s ignorance. It had always been that way. Scientists mocked(嘲笑) humanists; humanists laughed at scientists. Back in the 1960s, the physicist-turned novelist C. P. Snow labeled the sciences-humanities divide “a problem of ‘the two cultures’” . He said it was bad for society. The modern world needed well-rounded people. I think I know better now, but it would have helped if we had been encouraged to think a little more outside our science and arts “boxes”. That’s why I believe it is healthy that China is beginning a debate on whether it’s wise for young people to have to choose which direction their careers – and lives – will take at such an early age. At the moment, in their second year of high school, students must choose either the sciences or the humanities. After making the choice, they focus their energies on passing the appropriate college entrance exam. But now, people in China are asking: Is this forced, early decision good for young people or society? Young people need time to explore, to discover where their real talents and interests lie. There are more than just a few middle-aged people out there, stuck in jobs they hate because they made the wrong choice at the wrong time. And from the point of view of society, isn’t it better for students to delay a while before they decide what to study? Scientists can benefit from learning to develop the critical skills associated with the humanities; students in the humanities, surely, only stand to gain by finding out a little more about science and technology, which are so important to the future of a developing country like China. With any luck, in the future young people fresh to college will be better informed about the possibilities of education than people of my generation. 66. The author describes what happened at a fresher party to ________. A. show that he was ready to defend the subject he enjoyed B. lead up his argument that the sciences-humanities divide is harmful C. prove that doing something meaningful is better than having a lot of money D. describe how fierce students of different majors can be when arguing with each other 67. What was C. P. Snow’s attitude towards the sciences-humanities divide? A. Indifferent. B. Uncertain. C. Positive. D. Negative. 68. In the sixth paragraph, an example mentioning middle-aged people is used to show that ________. A. students should not make decisions too early B. not all people have a talent for or are interested in the sciences C. these people did not have the chance to make a choice earlier in life D. the earlier young people make a decision, the better it will be for them 69. According to the text, it is safe to say that ________. A. sciences are more practical in the modern world B. C. P. Snow was a novelist who became a physicist C. future generations will be able to get more out of education D. a command of both the sciences and humanities is important to society 70. What’s the best title for the article? A. The sciences or the humanities, which to choose? B. High school education in China C. Isn’t it better to delay the choice of the career direction? D. A better time to decide what to study PART FOUR WRITING (45 marks) An experimental solar-powered plane landed safely Thursday after completing its first 24-hour test flight, proving that the aircraft can collect enough energy from the sun during the day to stay aloft(在空中) all night. Pilot Andre Borschberg eased the Solar Impulse onto the runway at Payerne airfield about 30 miles southwest of the Swiss capital Bern at exactly 9 a.m. (3 a.m. EDT) Thursday. Helpers rushed to stabilize the pioneering plane as it touched down, ensuring that its massive 207-foot wingspan didn't scrape the ground and topple(倾倒) the craft. The record feat(壮举) completes seven years of planning and brings the Swiss-led project one step closer to its goal of circling the globe using only energy from the sun. ‘We achieved more than we wanted. Everybody is extremely happy,’ Borschberg told reporters after landing. Previous flights included a brief ‘flea hop’ and a longer airborne test earlier this year, but this week's attempt was described as a ‘milestone’ by the team. The team said it had now demonstrated that the single-seat plane can theoretically stay in the air indefinitely, recharging its depleted batteries using 12,000 solar cells and nothing but the rays of the sun during the day. But while the team said this proves that emissions-free air travel is possible, it doesn't see solar technology replacing conventional jet propulsion(喷气推进) any time soon. Instead, the project's overarching purpose is to test and promote new energy-efficient technologies. Project co-founder Bertrand Piccard, himself a record-breaking balloonist, said many people had been skeptical that renewable energy could ever be used to take a man into the air and keep him there. ‘It’s a matter of time that people come to believe and understand about renewable energies,’Piccard said, adding that the flight was proof that new technologies can help break society's dependence on fossil fuels. The team will now set its sights on an Atlantic crossing, before attempting a round-the-world flight in 2013, making only five stops along the way. ‘It's absolutely not time to relax,’ said Piccard.

In Tokyo there are always too many people in the places where I want to be. Of course there are too many cars. The Japanese drive very fast， but in Tokyo they often spend a long time in traffic jams. Tokyo is not different from London， Paris and New York in that. It is different when one wants to walk. At certain times of the day there are a lot of people on foot in London’s Oxford Street. But the streets near the Ginze in Tokyo always have a lot of people on foot， and sometimes it is really difficult to walk. People are very polite； there are just too many of them. The worst time to be in the street is at 11：30 at night. That is when the nightclubs are closing and everybody wants to go home. There are 35,000 nightclubs in Tokyo，and you do not often see one that is empty. During the day， most people travel to and from work by train. Tokyo people buy six million train tickets every day. At most stations， trains arrive every two or three minutes， but at certain hours there do not seem to be enough trains. Although they are usually crowded， Japanese trains are very good. They always leave and arrive on time. On a London train you would see everybody reading a newspaper. In Tokyo trains everybody in a seat seems to be asleep， whether his journey is long or short. In Tokyo， I stood outside the station for five minutes. Three fire-engines raced past on the way to one of the many fires that Tokyo has every day. Tokyo has so many surprises that none of them can really surprise me now. ( )56. Tokyo is different from London in that .

B A 26-year-old Montreal man appears to have succeeded in his quest to barter a single， red paper clip(夹 子 ) all the way up to a house. It took almost a year and 14 trades ， but Kyle MacDonald has been offered a two-storey farmhouse in Kipling， Sask.， for a paid role in a movie. MacDonald began his quest last summer when he decided he wanted to live in a house. He didn’t have a job， so instead of posting a resumé， he looked at a red paper clip on his desk and decided to trade it on an Internet website. The response was immediate —a fish pen was offered for exchange. MacDonald then bartered the fish pen for a handmade doorknob from a potter in Seattle. In Massachusetts， MacDonald traded the doorknob for a camp stove. He traded the stove to a U.S. soldier in California for a generator. Then he exchanged the generator for an “instant party kit” — an empty keg(小桶) and an illuminated Budweiser beer sign. MacDonald then traded the keg and sign for a snowmobile. He bartered all the way up to an afternoon with rock star Alice Cooper， a KISS snow globe and finally a paid role in a Corbin Bernsen movie. “Now， I’m sure the first question on your mind is， ‘Why would Corbin Bernsen trade a role in a film for a snow globe？ A KISS snow globe，’ MacDonald said on his website.”Well， Corbin happens to be arguably one of the biggest snow globe collectors on the planet. Now， the town of Kipling， Sask.， Canada， with a population of 1,100， has offered MacDonald a farmhouse in exchange for the role in the movie. The town is going to hold a competition for the movie role. MacDonald said： “There’re people all over the world that are saying that they have paper clips clipped to the top of their computer， or on their desk or on their shirt， and it proves that anything is possible and I think to a certain degree it’s true.” MacDonald， who has attracted international media attention in his quest， said the journey has turned out to be more exciting than the goal. “This is not the end. This may be the end of this part of the story， but this story will go on.” ( )61. The best title for this passage is “ ”. A.A lucky paper clip B.From poor to rich C.A lucky young man D.From paper clip to house ( )62. The underlined word in line 1 means . A.to get something for free B.to sell something at a price C.to sell goods on the Internet D.to exchange goods for other goods ( )63. Which shows the correct order of the trades？ A.Paper clip snow globe snowmobile house B.Paper clip keg of beer doorknob snowmobile C.Paper clip camp stove snowmobile movie role D.Paper clip keg of beer camp stove snowmobile ( )64.

C.They took over a year and some of them were really unbelievable. D.The house in Kipling has been offered to MacDonald to attract media. ( )65. What can we learn about MacDonald？ A.He wanted to gain fame through his quest. B.His success largely depended on the Internet. C.He never expected his aim could be achieved. D.He intends to begin another quest on the Web. C CONCORD， N.H.—Torrential rain forced hundreds of people from their homes in parts of New England on Sunday， as water flowed over dams and washed out roads. The governors of New Hampshire and Massachusetts declared states of emergency. Maine’s governor also declared a state of emergency for one county. “It’s a very serious situation，” said New Hampshire Governor John Lynch，adding that forecasters were predicting 12 to 15 inches of rain by the end of the storm in parts of southern New Hampshire. “It continues to change and the situation continues to worsen.” In some towns ， police and fire crews used boats to get people out of their homes and stranded cars after hundreds of roads were damaged. Others got around in kayaks(皮船). Some towns shut down， not letting anyone pass except emergency vehicles. “The town is cut right in half，” said Glenn Laramie， police chief in Andover， N.H. A dam in Milton，N.H.，was in danger of failing，which could send a 10-foot wall of water downstream， the National Weather Service said in a bulletin. People downstream were being evacuated from the town. In Massachusetts， cars were pulled from flooded streets in downtown Peabody， about 20 miles north of Boston， and about 300 people were evacuated from an apartment complex for seniors. Businesses stacked sandbags at their doors， trying to prevent damage from water that at one point rose to waist-deep. Some parts of New Hampshire had seen 7 inches of rain by midday Sunday and forecasters said up to 5 more inches might come during the day. About 100 residents were evacuated from their homes in Wakefield， N.H.， because of concerns about two dams in the area. Flooding in New Hampshire in October killed seven people， carried off homes and washed away miles of roads down to bedrock. In Maine ， flooding was reported on 60 roads in the southern part of the state ， said governor’s spokeswoman Crystal Canney. More than 50 homes in Sanford and several in Kennebunk also were evacuated， state officials said. ( )66. Which is NOT true according to the article？ A.The situation in N. H. is very serious.

Complete the diagram by using the information from the passage. Write NO MORE THAN THREE WORDS for each answer. You want a smart phone， but just how smart do you want it？ How about one that can read your mind？ Well， that phone may well be on its way... Justin Rattner， chief researcher at Intel， says that technology has developed to the point that “context-aware computing (情景感知计算)”， an idea that’s been around for twenty years， is becoming more of a reality. That could lead to a phone that acts as a mind reader in your pocket. But rather than simply collect secrets about you， the device could do things with that information， such as predict what you might do next and make suggestions. Rattner gave a few examples during his speech at Intel’s developer conference in San Francisco recently. Among them is a software that Intel worked on with Fodor’s Travel， a traveling website. It learns what types of foods you like to eat and what types of places you like to visit， based on searches you type into the phone or places you searched using GPS ( 全 球 定 位 系 统 ). The software makes similar recommendations when you visit a new city. Tech companies are already working to predict what people want. Search engine Google， movie-rental service Netflix， and online radio service Pandora try to guess what people want even before they know they want it. Putting those types of functions together with the other information that phones collect about people could pave the way for even more helpful mobile phones， Rattner said. A challenge is training computers to look at data from “hard sensors ( 传 感 器 )” (which measure place， movement， temperature and the like) and combining those findings with data from “soft sensors” (such as calendar appointments and Web browsing history). For example， your phone could tell that you have just left school and seem to be on your way home—a location it might know from your address book. It could then tell you the best route around traffic. Rattner added that researchers are even making steps toward the final goal—a computer understanding of thoughts.

PART THREE READING COMPREHENSION (30 marks) Directions ： Read the following three passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A， B， C and D.Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage. A Tokyo is one of those places that you can love and hate at the same time. In Tokyo there are always too many people in the places where I want to be. Of course there are too many cars. The Japanese drive very fast， but in Tokyo they often spend a long time in traffic jams. Tokyo is not different from London， Paris and New York in that. It is different when one wants to walk. At certain times of the day there are a lot of people on foot in London’s Oxford Street. But the streets near the Ginze in Tokyo always have a lot of people on foot， and sometimes it is really difficult to walk. People are very polite； there are just too many of them. The worst time to be in the street is at 11：30 at night. That is when the nightclubs are closing and everybody wants to go home. There are 35,000 nightclubs in Tokyo，and you do not often see one that is empty. During the day， most people travel to and from work by train. Tokyo people buy six million train tickets every day. At most stations， trains arrive every two or three minutes， but at certain hours there do not seem to be enough trains. Although they are usually crowded， Japanese trains are very good. They always leave and arrive on time. On a London train you would see everybody reading a newspaper. In Tokyo trains everybody in a seat seems to be asleep， whether his journey is long or short. In Tokyo， I stood outside the station for five minutes. Three fire-engines raced past on the way to one of the many fires that Tokyo has every day. Tokyo has so many surprises that none of them can really surprise me now. (D)56. Tokyo is different from London in that .

B.There are more trains than cars. C.Fire-engines are very busy in the city. D.The streets become more crowded at 11：30 at night. B A 26-year-old Montreal man appears to have succeeded in his quest to barter a single， red paper clip(夹 子 ) all the way up to a house. It took almost a year and 14 trades ， but Kyle MacDonald has been offered a two-storey farmhouse in Kipling， Sask.， for a paid role in a movie. MacDonald began his quest last summer when he decided he wanted to live in a house. He didn’t have a job， so instead of posting a resumé， he looked at a red paper clip on his desk and decided to trade it on an Internet website. The response was immediate —a fish pen was offered for exchange. MacDonald then bartered the fish pen for a handmade doorknob from a potter in Seattle. In Massachusetts， MacDonald traded the doorknob for a camp stove. He traded the stove to a U.S. soldier in California for a generator. Then he exchanged the generator for an “instant party kit” — an empty keg(小桶) and an illuminated Budweiser beer sign. MacDonald then traded the keg and sign for a snowmobile. He bartered all the way up to an afternoon with rock star Alice Cooper， a KISS snow globe and finally a paid role in a Corbin Bernsen movie. “Now， I’m sure the first question on your mind is， ‘Why would Corbin Bernsen trade a role in a film for a snow globe？ A KISS snow globe，’ MacDonald said on his website.”Well， Corbin happens to be arguably one of the biggest snow globe collectors on the planet. Now， the town of Kipling， Sask.， Canada， with a population of 1,100， has offered MacDonald a farmhouse in exchange for the role in the movie. The town is going to hold a competition for the movie role. MacDonald said： “There’re people all over the world that are saying that they have paper clips clipped to the top of their computer， or on their desk or on their shirt， and it proves that anything is possible and I think to a certain degree it’s true.” MacDonald， who has attracted international media attention in his quest， said the journey has turned out to be more exciting than the goal. “This is not the end. This may be the end of this part of the story， but this story will go on.” (D)61. The best title for this passage is “ ”. A.A lucky paper clip B.From poor to rich C.A lucky young man D.From paper clip to house (D)62. The underlined word in line 1 means . A.to get something for free B.to sell something at a price C.to sell goods on the Internet D.to exchange goods for other goods (C)63. Which shows the correct order of the trades？ A.Paper clip snow globe snowmobile house B.Paper clip keg of beer doorknob snowmobile C.Paper clip camp stove snowmobile movie role D.Paper clip keg of beer camp stove snowmobile (B)64. Which statement about MacDonald’s trades is TRUE？ A.All of his trades were done in his country. B.A film role was offered due to Bernsen’s hobby. C.They took over a year and some of them were really unbelievable. D.The house in Kipling has been offered to MacDonald to attract media. (B)65. What can we learn about MacDonald？ A.He wanted to gain fame through his quest. B.His success largely depended on the Internet. C.He never expected his aim could be achieved. D.He intends to begin another quest on the Web. C CONCORD， N.H.—Torrential rain forced hundreds of people from their homes in parts of New England on Sunday， as water flowed over dams and washed out roads. The governors of New Hampshire and Massachusetts declared states of emergency. Maine’s governor also declared a state of emergency for one county. “It’s a very serious situation，” said New Hampshire Governor John Lynch，adding that forecasters were predicting 12 to 15 inches of rain by the end of the storm in parts of southern New Hampshire. “It continues to change and the situation continues to worsen.” In some towns ， police and fire crews used boats to get people out of their homes and stranded cars after hundreds of roads were damaged. Others got around in kayaks(皮船). Some towns shut down， not letting anyone pass except emergency vehicles. “The town is cut right in half，” said Glenn Laramie， police chief in Andover， N.H. A dam in Milton，N.H.，was in danger of failing，which could send a 10-foot wall of water downstream， the National Weather Service said in a bulletin. People downstream were being evacuated from the town. In Massachusetts， cars were pulled from flooded streets in downtown Peabody， about 20 miles north of Boston， and about 300 people were evacuated from an apartment complex for seniors. Businesses stacked sandbags at their doors， trying to prevent damage from water that at one point rose to waist-deep. Some parts of New Hampshire had seen 7 inches of rain by midday Sunday and forecasters said up to 5 more inches might come during the day. About 100 residents were evacuated from their homes in Wakefield， N.H.， because of concerns about two dams in the area. Flooding in New Hampshire in October killed seven people， carried off homes and washed away miles of roads down to bedrock. In Maine ， flooding was reported on 60 roads in the southern part of the state ， said governor’s spokeswoman Crystal Canney. More than 50 homes in Sanford and several in Kennebunk also were evacuated， state officials said. (C)66. Which is NOT true according to the article？ A.The situation in N. H. is very serious.

Complete the diagram by using the information from the passage. Write NO MORE THAN THREE WORDS for each answer. You want a smart phone， but just how smart do you want it？ How about one that can read your mind？ Well， that phone may well be on its way... Justin Rattner， chief researcher at Intel， says that technology has developed to the point that “context-aware computing (情景感知计算)”， an idea that’s been around for twenty years， is becoming more of a reality. That could lead to a phone that acts as a mind reader in your pocket. But rather than simply collect secrets about you， the device could do things with that information， such as predict what you might do next and make suggestions. Rattner gave a few examples during his speech at Intel’s developer conference in San Francisco recently. Among them is a software that Intel worked on with Fodor’s Travel， a traveling website. It learns what types of foods you like to eat and what types of places you like to visit， based on searches you type into the phone or places you searched using GPS ( 全 球 定 位 系 统 ). The software makes similar recommendations when you visit a new city. Tech companies are already working to predict what people want. Search engine Google， movie-rental service Netflix， and online radio service Pandora try to guess what people want even before they know they want it. Putting those types of functions together with the other information that phones collect about people could pave the way for even more helpful mobile phones， Rattner said. A challenge is training computers to look at data from “hard sensors ( 传 感 器 )” (which measure place， movement， temperature and the like) and combining those findings with data from “soft sensors” (such as calendar appointments and Web browsing history). For example， your phone could tell that you have just left school and seem to be on your way home—a location it might know from your address book. It could then tell you the best route around traffic. Rattner added that researchers are even making steps toward the final goal—a computer understanding of thoughts. 【答案】71. people’s needs/what people want 72. Fodor’s Travel 73. (a) search engine 74. (a) movie-rental service 75. Pandora 76. personal information/information about people 77. Movement 78. Calendar appointments 79. (a) mind reader 80. Making suggestions SECTION B (10 marks) Directions： Read the following passage. Answer the questions according to the information given in the passage. Scientists have discovered that living to the age of 100 may have nothing to do with the lifestyle you lead and everything to do with the type of genes you have. For the lucky carriers of “Methuselah” genes， worries over smoking， eating unhealthily and not getting enough exercise may not be as necessary as to those of us without the special gene pattern. The “Methuselah” genes could give extra protection against the diseases of old age such as cancer and heart disease. They could also protect people against the effects of the unhealthy lifestyles that we believe will lead us to an early death， scientists say. However， the genes are very rare. The genes include ADIPOQ， which is found in about 10 percent of young people but in nearly 30 percent of people living past 100. They also include the CETP and the ApoC3 genes， which are found in 10 percent of young people， but in about 20 percent of people over 100 years old. Some of those genes were discovered by a research group at the Albert Einstein College of Medicine in New York， led by Professor Nir Barzilai. The team studied the genes of over 500 people over 100 years old， and their children. The studies show that tiny mutations ( 变 异 ) in the make-up of some genes can greatly increase a person’s lifespan. Barzilai told a Royal Society conference that the discovery of such genes gave scientists clear targets for developing drugs that could prevent age-related diseases， allow people to live longer and stay healthy. David Gems， a researcher at University College London， believes that drugs to slow ageing will become widespread. “If we know which genes control longevity (长寿) then we can... target them with drugs. That makes it possible to slow down ageing，” he told The Times. “Much of the pain and suffering in the world are caused by ageing. If we can find a way to reduce that， then we are obliged to take it.” 81. Which genes could give extra protection against the diseases of old age？ (No more than 3 words) (2 marks) The “Methuselah” genes. 82. Whom did Barzilai’s team study？ (No more than 10 words) (2 marks) Over 500 people over 100 years old and their children. 83. What can greatly increase a person’s lifespan？ (No more than 10 words) (3 marks) Tiny mutations in the make-up of some genes. 84. What can scientists do if they are aware which genes control longevity？(No more than 6 words) (3 marks) They can target them with drugs./They will develop drugs for them.

She seldom became angry， but she was this time. She held up a piece of broken glass and asked， “Who broke this window？” I was the one who broke the window. I had not meant to do it. It was caused by an inaccurate throw of a basketball. If I admitted it， I would be in a lot of trouble. How would I be able to pay for a big window like that？ I didn’t even get an allowance.“My father is going to have a fit，” I thought. I didn’t want to raise my hand. But then a force much stronger than me changed my mind. I had to tell the truth. I couldn’t believe what happened the next day！ My teacher went to my desk with a book I was longing for and said， “You will not be punished as long as you remember that I am not rewarding you for your misdeed， but for your honesty.” The book is gone and all that remains of that day is my memory and the lesson my teacher taught me！ 2013 届高考英语一轮复习试题（4） 测试时量：90 分钟；满分：150 分 姓名： 班级： PART TWO: LANGUAGE KNOWLEDGE (45 points) 21.

Many believe Virginia Beach is at its best in the off-season, when the town is less crowded but the weather is still mild. Meanwhile, some safety tips should be followed, enjoying the happiness and excitement the beach offers. The number 1 safety tip concerns ocean safety: pay attention to Flag conditions posted on the lifeguard stands. Lifeguards post a red flag to warn when the ocean water is dangerous. Take them seriously! Tourists from land-locked regions are particularly easily attracted by the magic of the waves. However, a calm ocean can become risky without warning. Make sure you swim near a lifeguard. Swimming without lifeguard protection is almost five times as great as drowning at a beach with lifeguards. Never swim alone. Many drownings involve single swimmers. When you swim with someone else, if one of you has a problem, the other may be able to get help, including signaling for assistance from others. Don't fight the current. The facts show that some 80% of rescues by lifeguards at ocean beaches are caused by currents. These currents are formed by surf and gravity, because once surf pushes water up the slope of a beach, gravity pulls it back. This can create concentrated rivers of water moving offshore. If you are caught in a rip current, don't fight it by trying to swim directly to shore. Instead, swim parallel to shore until you feel the current relax, then swim to shore. Most rip currents are narrow and a short swim parallel to shore will help bring you to safety. 56.When coming to Viginia Beach, children can enjoy the happiness of________________. A. walking on the road made of wood B. joining the nightspots C. riding a horse or a pumper car D. skiing in the sea 57. Many people believe the best time to visit Virginia Beach may be ____. A. after autumn school term beginning B. in the summer vacation C. during the Christmas holiday D. in the cold winter 58.Swimming in the sea you’d better not swim _______________.

A.one in five persons swimming in the sea is drowned B.if one with lifeguard were drowning, five persons without lifeguard would be, C.some 80% people drowning by the currents are rescued by lifeguards D.some 20% drowning by the currents are rescued by life guards 60.The passage mainly tells us ______________. A.Virginia Beach has all the elements of a classic seaside resort B. the happiness and excitement the beach offers C. some safety tips when swimming in the sea D. the dangers for tourists from land-locked regions to swim in the sea B This month, at the 2010 graduation ceremonies for Mills College, 94-year-old Hazel Soares will become a college graduate, 78 years after her high school graduation from then-Roosevelt High School in East Oakland, who is believed to be the second-oldest student in the world to ever graduate from a college. Soares has been married twice, raised six kids and seen two economic depressions, 15 US presidents and two world wars. She's been a working single mother, a nurse, a concert event organizer and an art lover. She has more than 40 grandchildren. Born in Richmond on June 21, 1915, Soares traces her interest in art history back to age 11 and the impression made on her the first time she saw Michelangelo's "David" in the Book of Knowledge. In 1996, at age 80, she traveled to Florence, Italy, to see the sculpture for herself. But setting records isn't what motivated Soares to renew her lifelong pursuit for education when she enrolled at Chabot Community College in the mid-1980s and settled on an art history major in Mills College in 2005. "I've always had a basic curiosity about how to do things, whether it is a (cooking) recipe or identifying pieces of art in historical context," she said. Then she plans to start looking for a job where she can use the skills and knowledge she acquired at the prestigious, private women's undergraduate college. "I'd like to be a lecturer in a museum," Soares said. Soares still drives and she is as healthy as a horse.

Their advice is part of a review aimed at doctors who deal with dog bites. “Dog bites and maulings are a worldwide problem, particularly in children.” write Marina Morgan and John Palmer. Every year 250,000 people who have been bitten by dogs attend minor injuries and emergency units in the United Kingdom, and half of all children are reportedly bitten by dogs at some time, boys more than girls. Accurate death figures are difficult to obtain, but in the past five years, two to three cases a year have made news headlines. Based on the latest medical evidence, they advise doctors how to examine and treat a patient presenting with a dog bite. They discuss the risk of infection and when to refer to specialist care. For travelers bitten abroad, they suggest assessing the risk of rabies(狂犬病). In terms of prevention, they suggest that children should be taught to treat dogs with respect, avoid direct eye contact, and not tease them. They should be taught not to approach an unfamiliar dog; play with any dog unless under close supervision; run or scream in the presence of a dog; pet a dog without first letting it sniff you; or disturb a dog that is eating, sleeping, or caring for puppies. “Dog owners also need to change their behavior”, says Rachel Besser, a children's doctor and lifetime dog owner, in an article. “It is clear that not all dog owners appreciate that children should not be left unsupervised with a dog”, she says. Just as some parents are obliged to take parenting classes, she would like to see compulsive classes for expectant dog owners to teach them about the responsibilities of dog ownership. Educational programs are also needed to teach children about some precautionary behaviors around dogs. Finally, she would like to see vets advising dog owners about bite prevention, and doctors promoting bite prevention when treating patients who have been bitten by dogs. 66.

Money was tight, and he became even more 36 when on Christmas Eve, he saw that the child had glued the gold paper so as to 37 a shoebox to put under the Christmas tree. Nevertheless, the next morning the little girl, filled with excitement, brought the gift box to her father and said, "This is for you, Daddy!" As he opened the box, the father was embarrassed by his earlier 38 . But when he opened it, he found it was empty and again his anger flared. "Don't you know, young lady,” he said 39 , “when you give someone a present there's supposed to be something inside the package!" The little girl 40 him with tears rolling from her eyes and said: "Daddy, it's not empty. I 41 kisses into it until it was all full." The father was crushed. He 42 on his knees and put his arms around his precious little girl. He begged her to forgive him for his 43 anger. From then on the father kept that little gold box by his bed for all the years of his life. Whenever he was discouraged or faced difficult problems he would open the box, take out a(an) 44 kiss, and remember the love of this beautiful child who had put it there.

The scientific and medical communities are very excited about the chances genetic research provides for getting rid of diseases and prolonging(延长) human life. But those communities and policy makers also are careful about the scientific door they are opening as the project uncovers the mysteries of life. For the last few years, the genetic advances in the developing field of biotechnologyhave provides material for all kinds of work, but the developments of modern science in unlocking the secrets of the human genetic code have opened a world of possibilities for human health, as well as for the popular imagination. While European and Japanese researchers are making rapid progress in decoding( 解 码 ) human DNA, the leading organization for genetic research is in the United States, which began in 1990, is “unlocking the code” of the human body to learn how to defeat fataldiseases. Already, the Human Genome Project has become widely known and praised for finding the genes connected with terrible diseases as yet(迄今), and making progress toward separating the genes that show a sign of breast cancer or AIDS. Once these genes are found and studied, researchers can develop new ways to attack infections, and genetic diseases. Medical companies are very interested in mapping the human genome, as they expect to develop a lot of new drugs for these illnesses. 56．Why did the scientists work hard at mapping the human genome? A．Because the human genome can destroy many illnesses. B．Because the human genome's completion can help them get rid of many diseases. C．Because they wanted to be better known than others. D．Because the human genome can provide a lot of chances of work. 57．Which country studied the genes most rapidly in the world? A．Japan. B．Germany. C．The United States. D．China. 58．Which of the following is NOT true? A．If the genes can be found, scientists can study many new ways to cure illnesses. B．The scientists have made great progress in connecting the genes with the cancers. C．Many medical companies show great interest in drawing the human genome map. D．The United States began the Genes Study early in the 19th century. 59．The author suggests that the Human Genome Project can cause _______. A．the policy makers to feel very worried and careful B．the scientists to work harder C．many people to find work easily D．a lot of companies to produce many new drugs 60．The main idea of this article is about _______. A．unlocking genetic code B．the genes' discovery C．the great human genome D．the genes and the scientists B What should you think about in trying to find your career? You are probably better at some school subjects than others. These may show strengths that you can use in your work. A boy who is good at mathematics can use that in an engineering career. A girl who spells well and likes English may be good at office work .So it is important to know the subjects you do well in at school. On the other hand, you may not have any specially strong or weak subjects but your records show a general satisfactory standard. Although not all subjects can be used directly in a job, they may have indirect value. Knowledge of history is not required for most jobs but if history is one of your good subjects you will have learned to remember facts and details. This is an ability that can be useful in many jobs. If you have had a part-time job on Saturdays or in the summer, think what you gained from it. If nothing else, you may to get to work on time, to follow instructions and to get on with older workers. You may have learned to give correct change in a shop, for example. Just as important, you may become interested in a particular industry or career you see from the inside in a part-time job. Facing your weak points is also part of knowing yourself. You may be all thumbs when you handle tools; perhaps you are a poor speller or cannot add up a column of figures. It is bitter to face any weaknesses than to pretend they do not exist. Your school record, for instance, may not be too good, yet it is an important part of your background. You should not be apologetic about it but instead recognize that you will have a chance of a fresh start at work. 61．Which of the following best sums up the first paragraph? A．The importance of doing well at school. B．Using school performance to help to choose a career. C．The importance of being good at all subjects. D．The indirect value of school work. 62．The writer thinks that for a student to have a part-time job is probably . A．a waste of time that could have been spent on study B．useful for his future work C．a good way to earn extra money D．a good way to find out his weak points 63．According to the passage, if a students school record is not good, he ____. A．will be a complete failure in his future work B．will not be able to find a suitable job C．will regret not having worked harder at school D．may do well in his future work 64．Which subject is supposed to have no direct value for job hunting? A．Mathematics. B．English. C．Technical Drawing. D．History. 65．The whole passage centers on ____. A．choosing a career according to what one is skilled in B．acquiring knowledge by working hard at school C．finding ones strong and weak points D．developing ones abilities useful in school work C This morning, a Virgin Atlantic 747 Jumbo Jet became the first commercial airplane to fly on biofuel. The short flight from London to Amsterdam used a blend of 20% babassu（棕榈）oil mixed with 80% conventional jet fuel. What was really exciting about the flight was the fact that the engine did not have to be altered in any way for the biofuel to work. While this is a great initial step in trying to reduce CO2(carbon-dioxide) emissions（排放）from airplanes, there are a lot of hurdles（障碍）that still need to be overcome. First and foremost, unlike the normal fuel used to run airplanes（known as Jet A）, biofuel freezes at high altitudes. Also, Jet ‘A’ fuel burns consistently (at the same pace), which means it provides a sale and reliable fuel for long flights – engineers are not sure if biofuel will be able to do the same. The biggest hurdle to a full biofuel switch is our ability to be able to grow enough crops that can be converted to biofuel. There are two concerns that scientists have in this matter – the first is that the land to grow the extra crops, will come from clearing more of our forests and the second that since it competes with what we eat, the price of food will go up. However, Richard Branson of Virgin Airlines, envisions that if biofuel starts to replace oil on a greater basis, it will be manufactured from algae（藻类）produced in sewage treatment plants, not from food sources. Birgin Airlines is not the only one trying to look for alternative fuel sources. Earlier this years, an Airbus A380 used another alternative fuel-a man-made mix of gas-to-liquid, in one of its four engines. The flight was tested by Rolls Royce (manufacturer of jet engines), in partnership with Shell (an oil company). Rolls Royce is also working with Air New Zealand on a similar project. While a complete switch to alternative fucl may take years, it is very encouraging to see airlines, oil companies and airplane manufacturers all coming together to try to make it happen! 66．Why does Virgin Airlines try to replace normal fuel with biofuel? A．To cut down the flight cost of the company. B．To remove some hurdles for the biofuel to work. C．To reduce CO2emissions from airplanes. D．To test plane engines on biofuel. 67．Which is NOT true for a full biofuel switch of airplanes? A．Biofuel cannot run for long flights. B．Biofuel cannot work at high altitudes. C．Man has not enough land to grow extra crops for biofuel. D．It’s not easy for sewage treatment plants to manufacture biofuel. 68．One of the hurdles to be overcome for a full biofuel switch is to . A．alter the engine for airplanes B．make biofuel burn consistently C．open more land to grow more crops D．develop sewage treatment plants 69．We can infer from the last paragraph that . A．there is a long way to go for a complete switch to alternative fuel B．it won’t be long before alternative fuel comes into use C．airlines, oil companies and airplane manufacturers are reliable D．alternative fuel has a bright future 70．Which of the following can best serves as the title of this passage? A．Biofuel-Alternative Fuel Sources. B．The First Commercial Flight Powered by Biofuel. C．How to Reducing CO2 Emissions from Airplanes. D．Vigin Airlines Trying to Alter Fuel Sources. Part IV Writing (45 marks) Section A (10 marks) Directions: Read the following passage. Fill in the numbered blanks by using the information from the passage. Write NO MORE THAN THREE WORDS for each answer. Healthy eating, about which there are a lot of fallacies, is not about strict nutrition philosophies, staying unrealistically thin, or depriving yourself of the foods you love. Rather, it’s about feeling great, having more energy, and keeping yourself as healthy as possible-all of which are regarded as valid arguments and are considered to be achieved by learning some nutrition basics and using them in a way that works for you. Healthy eating begins with learning how to “eat smart” – it’s not just what you eat, but how you eat. Your food choices can reduce your risk of illnesses such as heart disease, cancer, and diabetes, as well as defend against depression. However, learning the habits of healthy eating can increase your energy, sharpen your memory and stabilize your mood. You can expand your range of healthy food choices and learn how to plan ahead to create and maintain a satisfying, healthy diet. Eat with others whenever possible. Eating with other people has a lot of social and emotional benefits-particularly for children-and allow you to model better healthy eating habits from others. Eating in front of the TV or computer often leads to mindless overeating. Take time to chew our food and enjoy mealtimes. Chew your food slowly, savoring every bite. We tend to rush through our meals, forgetting to actually taste the flavors and feel the texture （口感）of what is in our mouths. Eat Breakfast, and eat smaller meals, throughout the day. A healthy breakfast can jumpstart your metabolism（新陈代谢）, and eating small, healthy meals throughout the day (rather than the standard three large meals) keeps your metabolism going and our energy up.

For more than 40 years she made it morally necessary to know everything---to read every book worth reading ,to see every movie worth seeing .When she was still in her early 30s, publishing essays in such important magazines as Partisan Review, she appeared as the symbol of American culture life ,trying hard to follow every new development in literature, film and art .With great effort and serious judgement. Sontag walked at the latest edges of world culture. Seriousness was one of Sontage’s lifelong watchwords( 格 言 ), but at a time when the barriers between the well-educated and the poor-educated were obvious, she argued for a true openness to the pleasure of pop culture. In “Notes Camp”, the 1964 essay that first made her name ,she explained what was then a little-known set of difficult understandings, through which she could not have been more famous .“Notes on Camp”,she wrote, represents “a victory of ‘form’ over ‘content’, ‘beauty’ over ‘morals’”. By conviction（信念）she was a sensualist（感觉论者）, but by nature she was a moralist（伦 理学者）,and in the works she published in the 1970s and 1980s , it was the latter side of her that came forward. In illness as Metaphor —published in 1978, after she suffered cancer—she argued against the idea that cancer was somehow a special problem of repressed personalities（被压抑 的性格）, a concept that effectively blamed the victim for the disease. In fact , re-examining old positions was her life long habit. In America, her story of a 19th century Polish actress who set up a perfect society in California, won the National Book Award in 2000. But it was as a tireless all-purposer cultural view that she made her lasting fame. “Sometimes,” she once said ,“I feel that, in the end, all I am really defending …is the idea of seriousness, of true seriousness.” And in the end ,she made us take it seriously too. 61．The underlined sentence in paragraph 1 means Sontag_________. A．was a symbol of American cultural life B．developed world literature, film and art C．published many essays about world culture D．kept pace with the newst development of world culture 62．She first won her name through ___________. A．her story of a Polish actress B．her book illness as Metaphor C．publishing essays in magazines like partisan Review D．her explanation of a set of difficult understandings 63．As for Susan Sontag’s lifelong habit , she __________.

While shifting the World Cup to the cooler month. Since the World Cup cannot be moved to the ‘cooler’ season in January or to a neighboring country with milder weather, Qatar has to figure out a solution to make the game more comfortable. A team of engineering scientists from Qatar University (QU) have taken a more high-tech approach to solving the problem – they've reportedly developed a type of artificial "cloud" designed to float above the World Cup venues and provide fans and players with relief from the blazing sun. The artificial clouds system was invented by a team led by Dr Saul Abdul Ghani, Head of the Mechanical and Industrial Engineering Department at QU, who told Gulf News that the "clouds" would be made from a lightweight carbon structure carrying a giant envelope of material containing helium（氦） gas. The "cloud" would also feature solar panels on its upper surface to power engines that allow the cloud to be moved via remote control. While the country officials have promised to improve some of the issues with solar-powered stadiums capable of reducing the temperatures inside, to a comfortable 20℃(68°F),there is still concern of how the players will be able to function in the practice fields. The system would initially cost around US$500,000, with prices coming down with commercial scale production. However, since Qatar needs to find a solution, the money is probably to the issue. The bigger question is, will this team of scientists actually be able to conjure up（兑现）something that they have promised? We will all find out in about eleven years! 66．By mentioning “the European off-season”, the author tells us . A．why the World Cup is held B．where the host countries of the World Cup are C．where the World Cup is usually held D．when the World Cup is held 67．The artificial clouds system aims to . A．carry a giant envelope of material containing helium gas B．air-condition the venues via solar power C．feature solar panels on its upper surface D．allow the loud to be moved via remote control 68．Which of the following is NOT promised for 2022 World Cup by Qatar? A．The tournament season. B．The tournament venues. C．The comfortable temperature for training grounds. D．The comfortable temperature for the matches. 69．About how much US dollars are estimated if four artificial clouds float above stadiums? A．$ 1,600,000 B．$ 2,500,000 C．$500,000 D．$ 2,200,000 70．Which of the following can best serve as the title of this passage? A．Will the 2020 World Cup Be Held in the Middle East? B．Qatar’s 2022 World Cup in High Temperature C．Will Man-Made Clouds Provide Shade at the 2022 World Cup in Qaltar? D．Artificial Clouds at High Cost Promising Comfortable Season Part IV Writing (45 marks) Section A (10 marks) Directions: Read the following passage. Fill in the numbered blanks by using the information from the passage. Write NO MORE THAN THREE WORDS for each answer. There are many reasons why you might not tell all when your doctor asks you to list the medications you are taking. But there is one very good reason why you should tell all: your health. Or you may encounter a drug interaction, a situation in which a substance affects the activity of a drug. Even though drug reactions and interaction are responsible for only about 3.8 percent of emergency department visits, many of these cases are serious. Medications have become an important component of good medical care, often taking the place of surgery or other invasive procedures. Pills are thought to be good cures for lowering blood pressure and cholesterol（胆固醇）and they are also used to treat depression and other kinds of diseases. As a result, people prefer to take combined medications, thinking they all work for good. At least 25 percent of Americans over age 65 take three or more medications daily-in many cases, prescribed by different doctors. Any of these medications can cause an unfavorable reaction. When two or more are taken at the same time, there is a risk of a drug interaction. Further increasing the risk, 40 percent of American adults regularly have herbal remedies（药物） or vitamins – often in combination with prescription or over-the-counter medications and usually without the knowledge of their doctors. To avoid the bad effects, you should follow the instructions. Your doctor will tell you when and how the medications are to be taken and if they are to be taken with or without certain foods. These instructions are important to ensure that the drug does its job effectively. It's a good idea to go to the same doctor regularly so he can be familiar with the drugs you are taking. And be sure to consult him before starting to take herbal remedies or vitamins. Finally, new medications are coming onto the market all the time. All the possible reactions and interactions are not always known. Be alert to symptoms and report them immediately to your doctor. Title: 71. I.

"RMB 1,000 for the nursery and RMB 5,000 for the kindergarten,” a post on a popular Internet site says. The author explains that it costs RMB 450，000 to raise a child through to the sixth grade. "A whole family，s monthly income is spent on the child ； every minute you have is used earning money for your child ？ your moods are hugely affected by your child，s; friends，career and fun all belong to your pre-child life； youM sell your house to get your child into a better school. And this，according to sina . com，means a generation of "child slaves" has been created. With thousands of people blogging in China，s cyber space，a new group of bloggers have made a name for themselves by blogging about raising children. These young parents who regularly blog about their children，s daily lives， exchange tips and post hundreds of cute photos of their toddlers > are divided about whether they are slaves to their children. Gao Jia，who is about to have a baby, thinks she^s a ‘‘slave-to-be，，and looks forward to it. "It’s my responsibility to raise the next generation. ” Blogger Baobao，on the other hand，thinks she is a "child farmer，，rather than a child slave. "Pm raising my child like a farmer planting baby trees. Wen Ma ， who also writes her own child-raising blog, criticizes the popular Chinese saying "everything we do is for the kids". She continues ， "We take both that saying and kids too seriously； for our children，s sake，we cannot be child slaves. It makes us weak. Huan Zi doesn ， t think child slave correctly describes her generation of parents. "We can be apartment slaves，because we need an apartment to live in，but it’s our own choice to have children，she says. "There will come the time when the post-1980s generation finds their own place in life, but being slaves should not be it. 56. It can be inferred from Paragraph 2 that __________.

Many theories,even some mystical ones，have been advanced to explain the popularity of jogging. The plain truth is that jogging is a cheap，quick and efficient way to maintain (or achieve) physical fitness. The most useful sort of exercise is exercise that develops the heart，lungs, and circulatory(血液循 环的）systems. If these systems are fit，the body is ready for almost any sport and for almost any sudden demand made by work or emergencies. One can train more specifically，as by developing strength for weight lifting or the ability to run straight ahead for short distances with great power as in football，but running trains your heart and lungs to deliver oxygen more efficiently to all parts of your body. It is worth doing that： this sort of exercise is the only kind that can reduce heart disease, the number one cause of death in America. Only one sort of equipment is needed—a pair of good shoes. Physicians advise beginning joggers not to try to run in tennis or gym shoes. Many design advances have been made in only the last several years that make a pair of excellent running shoes indispensable if a runner wishes to develop as quickly as possible，with as little chance of injury as possible. A pair of good running shoes will have soft pads for absorbing shock, as well as slightly built-up heels and full heel cups that will give the knee and ankle more stability. A wise investment in good shoes will prevent blisters(水泡）and the foot，ankle and knee injuries and will also enable the wearer to run on paved or soft surfaces. No other special equipment is needed； you can jog in any clothing you desire，even your street clothes. It takes surprisingly little time to develop the ability to run. The American Jogging Association has a twelve-week program designed to move from a fifteen- minute walk (which almost anyone can manage who is in reasonable health) to a thirty-minute run. A measure of common sense，a physical examination，and a planned schedule are all it takes. 61. The main purpose of this passage is to __________.. A. discuss jogging as a physical fitness program B. describe the type of clothing needed for jogging C. provide scientific evidence of the benefits of jogging D. launch a nationwide physical fitness campaign 62. The most effective kind of exercise should be the one that __________.. A. trains the body for weight lifting B. enables a person to run straight ahead C. is both beneficial and inexpensive D. develops the heart，lungs，and circulatory systems 63. We can conclude from this passage that __________.. A. jogging makes heart disease no longer be an American problem B. jogging can be harmful if the runner is not properly prepared C. suits are preferable to gym shoes and T-shirts D. jogging is bad for the ankles and knees 64. What can we learn from the third paragraph? A. For beginning joggers，tennis or gym shoes are better choices. B. A pair of good running shoes is necessary for a runner to develop quickly. C. A pair of good running shoes with a full heel-cup is designed to prevent shock. D. Comfortable pads will give the knees and ankles more stability. 65. The author^s attitude towards jogging is __________.. A. doubtful B. critical C. approving D. objective C If you want to teach your children how to say sorry，you must be good at saying it yourself， especially to your own children. But how you say it can be quite tricky. If you say to your children “I，m sorry I got angry with you，but ...，，，what follows that "but， can render the apology ineffective ： “I had a bad day" or "your noise was giving me a headache，，leaves the person who has been injured feeling that he should be apologizing for his bad behavior in expecting an apology. Another method by which people appear to apologize without actually doing so is to say "Pm sorry you，re upset，，； this suggests that you are somehow at fault for allowing yourself to get upset by what the other person has done. Then there is the general, all-covering apology, which avoids the necessity of identifying a specific act that was particularly hurtful or insulting, and which the person who is apologizing should promise never to do again. Saying "Pm useless as a parent，，does not commit a person to any specific improvement. These pseudo-apologies are used by people who believe saying sorry shows weakness. Parents who wish to teach their children to apologize should see it as a sign of strength，and therefore not resort to these pseudo-apologies. But even when presented with examples of genuine contrition，children still need help to become aware of the complexities of saying sorry. A three-year-old might need help in understanding that other children feel pain just as he does, and that hitting a playmate over the head with a heavy toy requires an apology. A six-year-old might need reminding that spoiling other children’s expectations can require an apology. A twelve-year-old might need to be shown that raiding the biscuit tin without asking permission is acceptable, but that borrowing a parentis clothes without permission is not. 66. If a mother adds "but" to an apology, __________.. A. she doesn’t feel that she should have apologized B. she does not realize that the child has been hurt C. the child may find the apology easier to accept D. the child may feel that he owes her an apology 67. According to the author, saying "Pm sorry you’re upset，most probably means” _____” A. You have good reason to get upset B. Fm aware you’re upset，but I’m not to blame C. I apologize for hurting your feelings D. Fm at fault for making you upset 68. It is not advisable to use the general，all-covering apology because __________.. A. it gets one into the habit of making empty promises B. it may make the other person feel guilty C. it is vague and ineffective D. it is hurtful and insulting 6 9. We learn from the last paragraph that in teaching children to say sorry __________.. A. the complexities involved should be ignored B. their ages should be taken into account C. parents need to set them a good example D. parents should be patient and tolerant 70. It can be inferred from the passage that apologizing properly is . A. a social issue calling for immediate attention B. not necessary among family members C. a sign of social progress D. not as simple as it seems Part IV Writing (45 marks) Section A (10 marks) Directions ： Read the following passage . Fill in the numbered blanks by using the information from the passage . Write NO MORE THAN THREE WORDS for each answer . What is a correct way to take medicine? Reading the question you might think it ridiculous. Actually，how to take medicine means a lot. Knowing it will not only help you preserve the full benefit of your valuable medicine，but also save yourself from potential side effects. For many reasons，no prescription or over-the-counter(非处方的）drug is 100 percent effective in all people or situations. To preserve the full benefit of your medicine，experts say to follow these key steps： Ask doctors for help. Discuss drug effectiveness with a doctor before getting a prescription. The doctor can help you explain effectiveness data in product instructions. You can also consult a chemist when buying over-the-counter medications. Store drugs properly. For instance，never store aspirin in the bathroom or the refrigerator. That^s because aspirin，like other drugs，can lose effectiveness in damp conditions. Most prescription drugs today come with special storage instructions. Also，some drugs，such as the antibiotic tetracycline，become ineffective when they are exposed to sunlight. Do you know how long you should use a certain medicine? Our human body is very smart. It doesn’t like any foreign chemical. That’s why the body builds up tolerance to many drugs，such as some sleeping pills，and pain medications. If a drug that once was effective no longer seems to help you，consult a doctor before you want to increase the amount of it. Cutting a sustained-release(药效持久的）pill can make a drug ineffective or even dangerous. That’s because too large a dose of a medicine will be distributed quickly. Also avoid emptying capsules into drinks，say coca cola，milk，juice or food like porridge and soup. So take the pill in a correct way. Do you know when to use medicine? You are advised to use medicine at the right time of the day. The instruction of the medicine Renova recommends applying the product at night. The active drug can be destroyed by sunlight. Also，applying two medicines to your skin at the same time might make them both ineffective. Taking drugs at recommended times，such as before meals， can increase absorption. Some people may store medicine they bought years ago. In actual fact，over time, many drugs experience chemical changes. So pay attention to expiration (截止）dates listed on labels or ask your chemist a drug ^ s shelf life. Don ^ t hesitate to throw old pills if possible. As you can see，taking medicine correctly is very important for many reasons，so make sure you follow these tips. Title： 71. __________. I . Purposes ： • To preserve the full benefit of medicine. • 72. __________. potential side effects.

Fill in each blank with words or phrases that best fits the context. I have been told in China, having a pet, particularly a dog, is often considered to be a status symbol because it shows the family can 36 to have an animal. It is different here. In Canada it is 37 for people to have pets. Many people have dogs. Many others have cats and there are people who keep fish, birds or rabbits. Some keep what we call exotic pets. These might be ferrets, snakes or almost any other animal you can think of, although keeping 38 pets is often difficult and because it can also be hard on the animal. The keeping of some exotic animals is not allowed by law. Now, my wife and I live in a small town. We no longer have a 39 --- we live in an apartment. We have a cat named Callie and she never goes out 40 onto the balcony so cars are no longer an issue. She’s about sixteen years old and will probably live to be twenty or more. The 41 will come when she dies and we no longer have a pet. We have had a pet for so long it seems like a natural part of our lives and without a cat around the house it will seem somehow 42 . On the other hand, we are getting older and given that a cat can live about twenty years we wonder if we will ever have another after Callie goes. Cats are cutest, of course, when they are small kittens but a kitten is 43 for a longer time than we may have left. I think having a pet is very good for a number of reasons. It helps to teach children how to look after a 44 creature, makes them realize that animals have feelings just like we do and that, in many ways, we depend on each other. For older people like me an animal is a 45 and a comfort to have around, a pet, properly treated, returns the favor by 46 unconditional love.

The taxi driver didn’t take even one passenger（乘客） all day. When he went by the railway station， he saw a young man coming out with two bags in his hands. So he drove to him and asked， “Where are you going，sir?” “To the Red Hotel，” the young man answered. When the taxi driver heard this， he didn’t feel happy any more.

A clever B brave C mean D stupid (C) Holding a cell phone against your ear or storing it in your pocket may be dangerous to your health. This explains a warning that cell phone manufacturers include in the small print that is often ignored when a new phone is purchased. Apple, for example, doesn’t want iPhones to come closer to you than 1.5 centimeters; Research In Motion, BlackBerry’s manufacturer, recommends 2.5 centimeters. If health issues arise from cell phone use, the possible effects are huge. Voice calls - Americans chat on cell phones 2.26 trillion( 万亿 )minutes annually - earn $109 billion for the wireless carriers. Devra Davis, an expert who has worked for the University of Pittsburgh, has published a book about cell phone radiation, “Disconnect.” The book surveys scientific research and concludes the question is not settled. Brain cancer is a concern that Ms. Davis examines. Over all, there has not been an increase in its incidence since cell phones arrived. But the average masks an increase in brain cancer in the 20-to-29 age group and a drop for the older population. “Most cancers have multiple causes,” she says, but she points to laboratory research that suggests low-energy radiation could damage cells that could possibly lead to cancer. Children are more vulnerable（易受伤的）to radiation than adults, Ms. Davis and other scientists point out. Radiation that penetrates only five centimeters into the brain of an adult will reach much deeper into the brains of children because their skulls are thinner and their brains contain more absorptive fluid（易吸收的液体）. No studies have yet been completed on cell phone radiation and children, she says. Henry Lai, a research professor in the bioengineering department at the University of Washington, began laboratory radiation studies in 1980 and found that rats exposed to radiation had damaged DNA in their brains. Ms. Davis recommends using wired headsets or the phone’s speaker. Children should text rather than call, she said, and pregnant women should keep phones away from the abdomen（腹 部）. 66. Why is the warning in the small print? A. They don’t want the users to pay attention to it. B. There is not enough space for the warning. C. They think people will not care about it. D. The warning is not important at all. 67. According to Ms Davis, brain cancer increase . A. among children B. among old people C. in the twenties D. among pregnant women 68. Why do children easily be affected by radiation? A. Because they haven’t grown up. B. Because they are too young to protect themselves. C. Because they use cell phones more often than adults. D. Because their skulls are thinner and their brains are easily hurt. 69. What can we conclude from the last paragraph? A. Pregnant women should keep cell phones away. B. People should use cell phones in the correct way. C. If you are a child, you’d better text than make phone calls. D. When you use a cell phone, use a wired headset or the phone’s speaker. 70. What does the passage mainly talk about? A. Be careful when using cell phones. B. Don’t hold your cell phone against your ear. C. Rats exposed to radiation have damaged DNA in their brains. D. Low-energy radiation could damage cells that could lead to cancer. PART FOUR WRITING (45 points) SECTION A.(10 points) Directions: Read the following passage. Complete the diagram by using the information for the passage. Write NO MORE THAN 3 WORDS for each answer. On the day of Chongyang Festival, one traditional activity is to climb mountains. However, mountains are not everywhere for people to climb. Therefore, for those people who live in flat regions far from any mountain, the problem is solved by going for a picnic and eating cakes. The Chinese word for cake is Gao, a homonym of the Chinese word for high. Mountains are high, so eating cakes can, by a stretch of the imagination, take the place of going for a climb. The tradition of eating cakes in September is originated from the ancient times. Though the name of “Gao” started from the Six Dynasties, the cakes had already existed in Han Dynasty, which was called “Er” in Chinese at that time. It is made of rice flour, which is classified into two types: paddy(水稻) rice flour and millet(粟米) rice flour. They are mixed together, which is named “Er”. In September, the millet is ripe. It is regarded as the food just in season, which is offered to ancestors as sacrifices. Chongyang Cake comes from the food just in season in September. That is why Chongyang Cake is recommended for offering sacrifices to ancestors on the day of Chongyang Festival. In the Six Dynasties, cakes become the food for the season as the tradition Chongyang Festival is formed with the promotion of mountain-climbing activity. As the cakes appear in different forms, Chongyang Cake was also called Hua (Colorful) Cake in the Ming & Qing Dynasty and became the food for the season in urban and rural areas. Hua Cake is divided into Unpolished Hua Cake, Refined Hua Cake and Gold Coin Hua Cake. Unpolished Hua Cake is marked with caraway(香菜) leaves, sandwiched with date, peach kernel(果仁) and other unpolished dry fruits. Refined Hua Cake is made in either two or three layers, with each sandwiched with refined glazed fruits, such as preserved apple, peach and apricot.

I couldn’t 36 in words but it was not even the type of house in which a typical middle-class Indian family lives. The greatest things I did find there were his parents. We sat on the ground for lunch because they didn’t have a dining 37 . His mother served us very delicious food, smiled throughout and showed care for the 38 lunch session. I can never forget that. His father worked as a norma l 39 and I wondered if he earned enough money to support their two sons. While we were taking lunch, his father returned home to meet us. When he entered their home, his hands were dark black and his clothes were very dirty. My friend had no 40 about his father and made the introductions. As soon as his father came in, my friend asked me if I wanted “Papad”（a typical Indian food）to eat. Before I could say anything, the father very gently and kindly 41 it for me, after going through many staircases even though he was looking 42 . Today, my friend is a leader in a big company. He is able to 43 high rent in Hyderabad and have a new beautiful home. Not only that, he helped his brother 44 in his studies and is still helping.

Scene First Student Film Festival B Sometimes in the next century, the familiar early newspaper on the front porch will disappear. And instead of reading your newspaper, it will read to you. You’ll get up and turn on the computer newspaper just like switching on the TV. An electronic voice will distribute stories about the latest events, guided by a program that selects the type of news you want. You’ll even get to choose the kind of voice you want to hear. Want more information on the brief story? A simple touch makes the entire text appear. Save it in your own personal computer if you like. These are among the predictions from communication experts working on the newspaper of the future. Pictured as part of broader home-based media and entertainment systems, computer newspapers would unite print and broadcast reporting, offering news and analysis with video images of news events. Most of the technology is available now, but convincing more people that they don’t need paper to read a newspaper is the next step. But resistance to computer newspapers may be s tronger from within journalism. Since it is such a cultural change, it may be that the present generation of journalists and publishers will have to die off before the next generation realizes that the newspaper industry is no longer a newspaper industry. Technology is making the end of traditional newspapers unavoidable. Despite technological advances, it could take decades to replace news-print with computer screens. It might take 30 to 40 years to complete the change over because people need to buy c omputers and because newspapers have established financial interests in the paper industry. 61. The best title for this passage is . A. Computer Newspapers Are Well Liked B. Newspapers of the Future Will Likely Be on Computers C. Paper Newspapers Are out of Fashion D. Communications Technology in the Future 62. It might take 30 or 40 years for computer newspapers to replace traditional newspapers because . A. it is technologically impossible now B. computer newspapers are too expensive C. both the general people and professional journalists are against them D. traditional newspapers are easy to read 63. Which of the following is NOT an advantage of computer newspapers? A. They are cheaper than newspapers. B. They are convenient to use. C. You can get more information from them quickly. D. You can easily save information for future use. 64. The reason why journalists are not eager to accept computer newspapers is that . A. they don’t know how to use computers B. they think computer newspapers take too much time to read C. they are afraid that they might be unfit for their jobs D. they have been trained to work for traditional newspapers 65. We can infer from the passage that . A. all technological changes are good B. all technologies will eventually replace old ones C. new technologies will replace old ones sooner or later D. traditional newspapers will stay for another century C Today, when there are many top graduates looking for top jobs, graduates can differentiate(区别) themselves by obtaining a double major or even a double degree. Increasingly, employers are looking for individuals who are not only competent and intelligent, but who have different skill sets and who are knowledgeable in many areas. Part of the appeal to employers is that your extra work demonstrates a willingness to take on difficult tasks. Additionally, if your majors overlap (重叠), you are able to show potential employers that you have both breadth and depth of knowledge. By studying for a double major, although you will be studying for only one degree, you will be focusing on two related and integrated subjects that complement ( 补 充 ) each other. Classes overlap between the majors, meaning fewer classes are required than with a double degree, so it is easier to finish within four years. In contrast, with the more rigorous (严格的) double degree, you will be studying for two different degrees in two completely different areas of study. Although pursuing such a course of study allows students to complete two wholly separate degrees in less time than if they were to earn them separately, many strong students still find it incredibly difficult to complete in four or five years. If you are committed to a double major/degree, it is wise to do a little bit of planning. Some students try to find two courses of studies that are related, while others seek to round out their academic studies by choosing two completely unrelated fields. For double majors, common pairings include: (i) economics and a foreign language; (ii) political science or government and journalism; (iii) economics and psychology. For double degrees, common pairings include: (i) engineering and a business program such as finance or accounting; (ii) engineering and economics. 66. What do employers think of the graduates with different skill sets and knowledge in many areas? A. They should be given top jobs. B. They are willing to take difficult tasks. C. They are better than those who are competent and intelligent. D. They must have attained a double major or even a double degree. 67. According to the passage, the underlined word “breadth” most probably means_________. A. width B. amount C. quantity D. quality 68. To obtain a double major, you _________. A. should complete two wholly separate degrees B. need to focus on two related and integrated subjects C. need to spend more time than obtaining a double degree D. have to take courses in two completely different areas of study 69. If you are devoted to a double major or degree, you should _________. A. find two subjects with overlapping classes B. learn about what your potential employers want C. decide what to learn with your intentions considered D. try to decide on some common pairings as soon as possible 70. Which statement is CORRECT according to the passage? A. Economics is a major while engineering is a degree. B. Every college student should take a double major or degree. C. Earning a double degree is more difficult than obtaining a double major. D Some students choose two completely unrelated fields to show their ability in academic study. PART FOUR WRITING (45 marks) SECTION A (10 marks) Directions: Read the following passage. Complete the diagram by using the information for the passage. Write NO MORE THAN 3 WORDS for each answer. There are two types of people in the world．Although they have equal degree of health and wealth and other comforts of life, one becomes happy, while the other becomes unhappy．This arises from the different ways in which they consider things, persons, events and the resulting effects upon their minds． People who are to be happy fix their attention on the convenience of things: the pleasant parts of conversation, the well prepared dishes, the goodness of the wine and the fine weather．They enjoy all the cheerful things．Those who are to be unhappy think and speak only of the opposite things．Therefore, they are continually dissatisfied．By their remarks, they sour the pleasure of society, offend （ hurt ） many people, and make themselves disagreeable everywhere．If this turn of mind was founded in nature, such unhappy persons would be the more to be pitied ． The intention of c riticizing and being disliked is perhaps taken up by imitation．It grows into a habit, unknown to its possessors．The habit may be strong, but it may be cured when those who have it realize its bad effects on their interests and tastes．I hope this little warning may be of service to them, and help them change this habit． Though in fact it is chiefly an act of the imagination, it has serious results in life since it brings on deep sorrow and bad luck．Those people offend many others; nobody loves them, and no one treats them with more than the most common politeness and respect．This frequently puts them in bad temper and draws them into arguments．If they aim at getting some advantages in social position or fortune, nobody wishes them success．Nor will anyone start a step or speak a word to favor their hopes．If they bring on themselves public objections, no one will defend or excuse them, and many will join to criticize their wrong doings．These should change this bad habit and be pleased with what is pleasing, without worrying needlessly about themselves and others．If they do not, it will be good for others to avoid any contact with them ．Otherwise, it can be disagreeable and sometimes very inconvenient, especially when one becomes mixed up in their quarrels． Title: About Two Types of People Types of People Differences （71）___________________ The happy Fixing their attention on the （ 72 ） __________ of things Equal degree of health and wealth and other （73） of life The unhappy Think and speak only of the （74） things． （ 75 ） about the unhappy Situation （77） （79） ____ Souring the pleasure of society ●Growing into a habit ●Having bad effects on their interests and tastes ●Nobody loves them ●No one treats them with politeness and （78） ●Change this bad （80） _______ ●Be pleased with what is pleasing ●Don’t worry needlessly about themselves and others （ 76 ） _ many people Making themselves disagreeable 假如你班要就“如何为高考作准备”开一个班会，请你写一篇发言稿，谈谈你认为在高考备考 过程中要注意的事项（三条以上）及理由： 注意: 1. 词数 120 以上，开头和结尾已为你写好(不计入总词数)； 2. 参考词汇：明确的 definite (adj.) 评价 estimation (n.)

No doubt every Senior 3 student wishes to be successful in the National college Entrance Examination. Yet what should we do in order to achieve success? Here are some suggestions. First, it’s very important to have a right attitude, for a normal state of mind and self-confidence not only helps us to relax but also enables us to overcome difficulties bravely. Meanwhile, we should have a definite goal and a correct estimation of ourselves. Only in this way will we not be easily pleased or disappointed with what we have known and done. Besides, we’d better sometimes talk with our parents, teachers or classmates, who may help us out when we’re in trouble. Finally, striking a proper balance between study and rest keeps us energetic and a healthy diet is useful as well. With these done, I think we can greatly improve our performance.

During this season, it 36 rains there but it remains wet for seven or eight days on end. Dwellers in Shanghai, who usually do not feel the need for rain, will be 37 with having to confine themselves in their close quarters when outside it is gloomy with rain. While in the open, seeing to mountains, nor lakes, nor rain-drenched soft green leaves, you’ll find nothing comparable to a fine day. Sometimes, 38 , a rich man’s car flashing past may splash you all over with 39 . I remember when I first came to Shanghai to 40 school six or seven years ago, I used to be so very busy with my homework that I often had to sit up 41 into the night. As it happened to be a rainy year, I was often disturbed by the pitter-patter of rain beating down 42 the window and roof. Indeed, I dislike rain very much. But that’s something which can be experienced in Shanghai only. I’ll never forget the days when I 43 the spring rain in my native place as a small child.

Launched on the sidelines of global climate negotiations in Durban, the report by the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organisation shows how higher temperatures, the rise in sea levels, deforestation and excessive land use have damaged the habitats of certain species, especially in Africa. "Many ecosystems have already been stressed by increasing population, historical and recent deforestation, unsustainable management practices and even invasive species," Eduardo Rojas-Briales, assistant director general at the FAO's forestry department, said at the launch of the report. The most affected areas include mountains, isolated islands and coastal areas, which limit the possibilities for animals to migrate elsewhere and create new habitats. "The remaining populations become enclosed in very small ecosystems, they have inbreeding （近亲交配）problems ... and at the end these species may disappear," he added. Other examples of affected animals included elephants in Mali, lions in the Serengeti and crocodiles in Malawi. The report said an estimated 20-30 percent of plant and animal species will be at higher risk of extinction due to global warming and a significant proportion of endemic species may become extinct by 2050 as a consequence. Other consequences could include the spread of invasive species and infectious diseases, it said. The report urges more focus on restoration of damaged ecosystems, especially those key to tackling （应对）climate change such as mangroves（红树林）, inland waters, forests, savannahs （非洲大草原） and grasslands. The FAO also called for the creation of migration corridors for animals in areas where their movement was constrained. The organisation said while more resources were flowing to biodiversity conservation, more action at the government and policy level was needed. It also urged local communities to develop projects that mitigate the impact of climate change on wildlife, naming eco-tourism activities as an example. 56．Why are mountains, isolated islands and coastal areas becoming the most affected areas, according to the passage? A．Because animals there are more likely to migrate to other places and create new habitats. B．Because of higher temperatures and the rise in sea levels there. C．Because it is less possible for animals to move to other places and create new habitats. D．Because of the spread of invasive species and infectious diseases. 57．What does the underlined word “mitigate” mean? A．Making something become less serious. B．Making use of. C．Developing. D．Moving from one place to another. 58．All of the following are true EXCEPT “ ”. A ． The increasing population, historical and recent deforestation, unsustainable management practices and even invasive species have put great pressure on the ecosystem. B．We should pay more attention to the restoration of damaged ecosystems C．All the plants and animal species will be at higher risk of distinction due to global warming by 2050. D．For animals living in areas where their movements was limited, we should create more corridors for them. 59．What can we infer from the last two paragraphs? A．There are no resources available to conserve the biodiversity. B．It is the local communities rather than the government that should take measures to protect the species from extinction. C．It is better for the local communities to restrict eco-tourism activities. D ． The government should take some measures and some policies should be made to protect the biodiversity though more sources were being used for it. 60．What is the best title for the passage? A．Animals at risk B．Global warming and its consequences C．Solutions to animal distinction D．Animals at risk due to climate change B Chinese media and Internet users on Monday decried（谴责）a lack of morals in society after a toddler was struck twice – by two different vans-and left bleeding on the road as more than a dozen bystanders did nothing to help the seriously injured girl. The incident, captured by a surveillance camera and aired by Southern Television Guangdong (TVS), showed the two-year-old girl was knocked down and run over by a white van on a narrow market street on the afternoon of Oct. 13, in Foshan City of Guangdong Province. The driver fled the scene of the accident, leaving the girl to bleed on the sidewalk. Over the next six minutes, more than a dozen people walked by the girl, yet not one individual did anything to help her. The girl was then his a sccond time by another van before an clderly trash collector came to her aid and brought the attention of the girl’s mother, according to the vidco and eyewitnesses. Doctors said that the girl, who was put on life support after being hospitalized, remains in a deep coma. The girl's parents, who are migrants living in the city, are now with her. Police said the drivers of both vehicles have been arrested. However, the apathy of the bystanders shown in the video has shocked the public, as Internet forums have scethed with anger, and people are questioning the morality of society. High moral standards were once triumphed as national pride in China where individuals known for selflessly helping others were adored by the public. But in recent years, the perception（观念）of a decline of morals has become a hot topic as profit and materialism are perceived to be affecting society’s values. On Sept. 2. an 88-year-old man in central China collapsed, his face striking the pavement. Yet, no one came to his aid, and he ended up choking to death on the blood from his nose. Some have linked the absence of good Samaritans (模范人物)to a previous case in which a man trying to help an elderly woman who fell was accused of harming her. A strong chorus of opinion on the Internet says laws should exempt（免除）Samaritans from liability（责任）, yet laws themselves cannot solve society’s morality dilemma. Cao Lin, a China Youth Daily commentator, said in a signed article published on Monday that the worry of liability should not be an excuse for not helping, and this case exposes the decline of humanity in Chinese society. 61．According to the passage, what would happen if someone helped others selflessly in the past? A．He/ she would be condemned by the public. B．He/ she would be awarded by the government. C．The public would feel proud of him/ her and thus showed love and respect for him/ her D．He/ she would have to worry about liability. 62．Which of the following is TRUE about this passage? A．Nobody helped the girl who was struck twice by two different vans. B．The toddler died immediately after she was hit a second time. C．High moral standards were once regarded as national pride in China. D．Journalists from TVS captured the incident by using a camera. 63．In recent years, society’s values is believed to be affected by . A．people’s perceptions B．profit and materialism C．the apathy of bystanders D．the morals of society 64．According to Cao Lin, what is the fundamental reason for not helping the girl? A．The worry of liability. B．Lack of laws that exempt Samaritans from liability. C．The decline of humanity in society. D．The other two cases mentioned in the article-the case or an 88-year-old man and the case where a man trying to help an elderly woman who fell was accused or harming her. 65．Where is the article most probably taken from? A．A fashion magazine. B．A news report. C．A science fiction. D．An education column. C A funny thing happened on the way to the communications revolution: we stopped talking to one another. I was walking in the park with a friend recently, and his cell phone rang, interrupting our conversation. There we were, walking and talking on a beautiful sunny day and... I became invisible, absent from the conversation. The telephone used to connect you to the absent. Now it makes people sitting next to you feel absent. Why is it that the more connected we get, the more disconnected I feel? Every advance in communications technology is a tragedy to the closeness of human interaction. With e-mail and instant messaging over the Internet, we can now communicate without seeing or talking to one another. With voice mail, you can conduct entire conversations without ever reaching anyone. If my morn has a question, I just leave the answer on her machine. As almost every contact we can imagine between human beings gets automated, the alienation（疏远） index goes up, You can' t even call a person to get the phone number of another person anymore. Directory assistance is almost always fully automated. I am not against modern technology. I own a cell phone, an ATM card, a voice-mail system, and an e-mail account. Giving them up isn't wise.., they're a great help to us. It’s some of their possible consequences that make me feel uneasy. More and more, I find myself hiding behind e-mail to do a job meant for conversation, or being relieved that voice mail picked up because I did' t really have time to talk. The industry devoted to helping me keep in touch is making me lone-lire.., or at least facilitating my antisocial instincts. So I' ve put myself on technology restriction: no instant messaging with people who live near me, no cell-phoning in the presence of friends, no letting the voice mail pick up when I’m at home. 66．Which of the following would be the best title of the passage? A．The Advance of Communications Technology B．The Consequences of Modern Technology C．The Story of the Communications Revolution D．The Automation of Modern Communications 67．The sentence "Now it makes people sitting next to you feel absent" means that . A．the people sitting beside you have to go away to receive phone call B．you can hardly get in touch with the people sitting beside you C．modern technology makes it hard for people to have face-to-face talk D．people can now go to work without going to the office 68．The writer feels that the use of modern communications is . A．satisfying B．encouraging C．disappointing D．embarrassing 69．The passage implies that . A．modern technology is bridging people B．modern technology is separating people C．modern technology is developing too fast D．modern technology is interrupting our communication 70．What does the underlined word “facilitating” mean? A．加深 B．限制 C．帮助 D．装备 Part IV Writing (45 marks) Section A (10 marks) Directions: Read the following passage. Fill in the numbered blanks by using the information from the passage. Write NO MORE THAN THREE WORDS for each answer. In addition to self-awareness, imagination, and conscience, it is the fourth quality — independent will — that really makes effective self-management possible. It is the ability to make decisions and choices and to act in agreement with them. It is the ability to act rather than to be acted upon, to actively carry out the program we have developed through the other three qualities. The human will is an amazing thing. Time after time, it has overcome unbelievable difficulties. The Helen Kellers of this world give dramatic evidence to the value, the power of the independent will. But as we examine this quality in the context of effective self-management, we realize it’s usually not the dramatic, the visible, the once-in-a-lifetime, up-by-the-bootstraps effort that brings lasting success. This special ability comes from learning how to use this great quality in the decisions we make every day. The degree to which we have developed our independent will in our everyday lives is measured by our personal honesty. Honesty is, fundamentally, the value we place on ourselves. It’s our ability to make and keep promises to ourselves, to “walk our talk.” Effective management is putting first things first. While leadership decides what “first things” are, it is management that puts them first, day-by-day, moment-by-moment. Management is discipline (training to be self-controlled), carrying it out. Discipline obtains from belief—belief in a set of values, belief in an overriding purpose, to a long-term or short term goal that must be carried out. In other words, if you are an effective manager of yourself, your discipline comes from within; it is a function of your independent will. You are a follower of your own deep values and their source. And you have the will, the quality to control your feelings and moods rather than depend on others or have your work half done. Section C (25 marks) Directions: Write an English com position according to the instructions given below in Chinese. 假如你是你校校园电视台的记者，写一篇新闻报道，一件最令人感动的事。 要求： 1．时间、地点、人物、过程； 2．谈谈你的感想； 3．题目自拟； 4．词数不少于 120。 专题短文改错 (附参考答案) 模拟精选题 Passage 1 (2016·山西重点中学协作体模拟) 假定英语课上老师要求同桌之间交换修改作文，请你修改你同桌写的以下作文。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。 Having a good teacher do mean a lot to us students and I am lucky enough to have the one—Miss Brown, my English teacher.

Daydreamers have a bad reputation for being unaware of what's happening around them. They can seem forgetful and clumsy. __1__ They annoy us because they seem to be ignoring us and missing the important things. But daydreamers are also responsible for some of the greatest ideas and achievements in human history. __2__ Can you imagine what kind of world we would have without such ideas and inventions? So how can we come up with brilliant daydreams and avoid falling over tree roots or otherwise looking like a fool? First, understand that some opportunities(机会) for daydreaming are better than others. Feeling safe and relaxed will help you to slip into daydreams. __3__ And if you want to improve your chances of having a creative idea while you're daydreaming, try to do it while you are involved in another task ， preferably something simple, like taking a shower or walking, or even making meaningless drawings. It's also important to know how to avoid daydreams for those times when you really need to concentrate. “Mindfulness”， being focused, is a tool that some people use to avoid falling asleep. __4__ Finally, you never know what wonderful idea might strike while your mind has moved slowly away. __5__ Always remember that your best ideas might come when your head is actually in the clouds.

Use your common sense.If a report seems too good to be true ， probably it is.Be especially careful of information contained in advertisements.__4__ Evaluate“scientific”statements carefully ， and be aware of quackery(江湖骗术)． __5__ Friends and family members can be a great source of ideas and inspiration，but each of us needs to find a healthy lifestyle that works for us.
