Then one evening in June last year, she received a text message telling her she was out of work. The first two weeks were the most difficult to live through.” she said. “After everything I’d done for the company, they dismissed me by text!I was So angry and I just didn’t feel like looking for another job. I hated everything about the city and my life.”‎ Then, Zoe received an invitation from an old school friend, Kathy, to come and stay. Kathy and her husband, Huw, had just bought a farm in north-west Wales. Zoe jumped at the chance to spend a weekend away from London, and now, ten months later, she is still on the farm.‎ ‎“The moment I arrived at Kathy’s farm, I loved it and I knew I wanted to stay.” said Zoe. “ Everything about my past life suddenly seemed meaningless.”‎ Zoe has been working on the farm since October of last year and says she has no regrets. “It’s a hard life, physically very tiring. ” she says. “In London I was stressed and often mentally exhausted. But this is a good, healthy tiredness. Here, all I need to put me in a good mood is a hot bath and one of Kathy’s wonderful dinners. ”‎ Zoe says she has never felt bored on the farm. Every day brings a new experience. Kathy has been teaching her how to ride a horse and she has learnt to drive a tractor.

I had just changed one long sentence, and correct grammar—something I thought I was paid to do. In fact I had been warned. On the first day one of my workmates took me aside and reminded me of his temper. As the weeks went by, I came to look down on Jack. One day Jack's other papers left me in tears so I stormed into his office angrily. “What?” he asked. Suddenly I knew what I must do. After all, he earned it. “Jack, the way you've been treating me is wrong. I've never had anyone speak to me that way. As a professional, it's wrong for me to allow it to continue,” I said. Jack smiled nervously, “Susan, I make you a promise that I will be a friend. I will treat you as you should be treated, with respect and kindness,” he said. With these ‎ words, I left. Jack avoided me the rest of the week, and never questioned my work again. I brought cookies to the office one day and left some on his desk. Another day I left a note: “Hope your day is going great.” Over the next few weeks, Jack reappeared , but there were no more Jack's papers. One year later I discovered I had breast cancer, and was scared. The statistics (统计数字) were not great for my long-term survival. On the last day of my hospital stay, Jack came and silently handed me a bundle with several bulbs inside. “Tulips (郁金香) ,” he said. I smiled, not understanding. He cleared his throat. “If you plant them when you get home, they'll come up next spring. I think you will be there to see them when they come up.” Tears clouded my eyes and I whispered: “Thank you.”Jack held my hands firmly, saying, “You are welcome. You can't see it now, but next spring you will see the colors I picked out for you.” I have seen those red and white striped（有条纹的） tulips push through the soil every spring for over ten years now. This past September the doctor declared me cured. At a moment when I was praying for just the right word, a man with very few words said all the right things. After all, that's what friends do. 25.Jack was angry with the author because___________. A.she pointed out his mistakes in public B.she changed the contents of the papers C.she read the papers without his permission D.she corrected the papers without telling him 26.The author entered Jack's office with the purpose of ________________.

A.She was afraid that she would die soon. B.She was moved by Jack's flowers and words. C.She was pleased that Jack became a good man. D.She was angry with Jack for what he did to her.‎ C Since his students began using Quizlet, English teacher Tristan Thorne has noticed an improvement in their ability to learn and use new words. Quizlet is a learning App, a computer program you use on your mobile phone. It can help users build and test their knowledge of English words. Quizlet has word sets for millions of subjects. And, it is quickly becoming a useful mobile tool for language learners.‎ Thorne teachers at Columbia University in New York City. Thanks to learning Apps, Jeff Strack, another English teacher, has also notice improvement in his students’ ability to remember information. He teaches at Hostos Community College, also in New York. He and Thorne are part of a growing number of language educators adding mobile Apps to their classes.‎ Strack and Thorne seem to agree that the days when teachers would not permit the use of mobile phones are gone. When they use Apps, language learners communicate more differently than in a traditional classroom. Users act on or respond to something, instead of just listening to new information.‎ Thorne believes that Apps can help learners become more active in learning. For example, each week, his students are required to add vocabulary words into Quizlet for others to use. He says some Apps also make it easy for students to know their language strengths and weaknesses.‎ The biggest improvement Strack has seen in his students is that they are much more active in whole-class or small-group discussions. “Apps let all students take part in the activity, whether it’s a game, quiz or practice activity.” he says.‎ Many existing learning Apps are designed for students of all ages and levels. Some are designed for group activities. some support independent learning. Still some are good for homework. Thorne says he especially likes Quizlet and three other Apps: QR Codes, Socrative and Evernote.‎ ‎28.What do Strack and Thorne do to improve their teaching?‎ A. They design learning Apps for their students.‎ B. They don’t allow their students to use Apps after class C. They allow their students to use mobile Apps to study D. They order their students not to use mobile phones in class ‎29.According to the text, Apps can help language learners __________.‎ A. take an active part in learning B. save much time and money C. remember their weaknesses D. improve personal designing skills ‎30.What can we learn about the existing learning Apps?‎ A. They have three types in total B. They are too few to choose from C. They are only designed for homework D. They are designed for different uses ‎31.What can be the best title for the text?‎ A. Great changes in science and technology B. The use of mobile phones will be gone C. Ways to choose from different mobile Apps D. Better language learning with mobile Apps D Last week I visited my friend Pete in the new home where he lives with his wife and daughter. Pete used to spend his holidays travelling the world, visiting the pyramids in Egypt or scuba diving(潜水) in the Caribbean. Nowadays he prefers to spend his holidays and weekends making his house look more beautiful. Like hundreds of thousands of other British people, he has discovered the joy of DIY (Do It Yourself), which means if there are any things that need fixing around the house, he will try to do the job himself.‎ As he showed me the new kitchen he put together by himself and the newly painted walls, I asked Pete where he got his inspiration (灵感) from. He told me that his favorite source of ideas was a DIY program on TV.‎ This got me thinking about the great popularity of DIY programs in the UK. Each major channel has at least one home or garden improving show and there’s even a satellite channel completely about the subject.‎ I guess it is not really surprising that DIY programs are so popular. Two common sayings in Britain－ ‘an Englishman’s home is his castle’ and ‘there’s no place like home’－show how important our houses are to us. With the present economic downturn, many people can’t afford to buy a bigger house so they are looking at how they can make their house better without spending a lot of money. DIY is the perfect choice.‎ But be careful! I read a report that said over 230,000 people were injured while doing home ‎ improvements in the UK in just one year, including 41,000 who fell off ladders(梯子) and 5,800 who were seriously hurt by hammers. So I won’t be going down to the hardware store.‎ ‎32.How did Pete spend his holiday in the past?‎ A. Visiting his friends.‎ B. Diving.‎ C. Travelling around the world.[来源:学_科_网Z_X_X_K]‎ D. Making his house beautiful.‎ ‎33.Which might NOT be shown in a DIY program on TV?‎ A. Scuba diving B. A garden improving feature.‎ C. Home improvements.‎ D. Fixing things in kitchens ‎34.Which is NOT the reason why DIY is popular among British people?‎ A. They enjoy DIY.‎ B. They want to make their houses better themselves.‎ C. They can improve their houses without spending much money.‎ D. They want to be on TV.‎ ‎35.At the end of the article the writer wants us to remember _____.‎ A. not to go to the hardware store B. to be careful not to get hurt while doing DIY C. to keep watching DIY on TV while drinking a nice cup of tea D. not to climb ladders or use hammers 第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）‎ ‎ 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。选项中有两项为多余选项。‎ Matthew Youlden speaks nine languages fluently and understands more than a dozen more.  36   When I told Matthew how I've been working hard to only pick up a second language, he had the following advice for me. Know why you are doing it This might sound easy , but if you don't have a good reason to learn a language, you are less likely to stay interested over the long-run.  37   Wanting to get to know a French person in his or her ‎ own language is another matter entirely. No matter what your reason is, once you've decided on a language, it's important to carry out .  38   Matthew learned several languages together with his twin brother Michael. They learned their first foreign language, Greek, when they were only eight years old! Even if you can't get a sister or brother to join you on your language adventure, having any kind of partner will push both of you to always try just a little bit harder and stay with it. Have fun with it  39  Think of some fun ways to practice your new language: make a radio play with a friend, draw a comic strip, write a poem, or simply talk to whomever you can. If you can't find a way to have fun with the new language, chances are you aren't following step four. Act like a child We learn by making mistakes.  40  But as adults, mistakes become taboo(禁忌). Think how an adult is more likely to say, “I can't”, rather than, “I haven't learned that yet” (I can't swim, I can't drive, I can't speak Spanish). When it comes to learning a language, admitting that you don't know everything is the key to growth and freedom. A. Find a partner B. Leave your comfort place C. We work in the same office in Berlin. D. As kids, we are expected to make mistakes. E. You are learning a language to be able to use it. F. Using your new language in any way is a creative act. G. Wanting to impress English-speakers with your French is not a very good reason.‎ 第三部分 英语知识运用（共两节，满分45分）‎ 第一节 完形填空（共20小题；每小题1．5分，满分30分）‎ Peter and Paul had got permission(允许) from their parents to camp in a field close to their farm.
