I reviewed the driver’s manual for the hundredth time. I was ready. I knew the manual backward and forward; I had made an “A” in my driver’s training course, and I was a genius behind the wheel.‎ Finally, the door opened and a weary-looking man in a brown uniform let me in. ‎ ‎“Let me guess. You want to take the driver’s test.” his voice was not enthusiastic.‎ ‎“Yes!” I answered in excitement.‎ ‎“Ok, fill this out, and if you pass we’ll go for a drive.”‎ I grabbed the test and rushed to the desk where I filled it out in record time. A quick check showed that my paper was perfect.‎ ‎“Let’s get in the car.” He tossed me a set of keys, and I slid behind the wheel. Everything was going smoothly as we pulled out of the empty parking lot. I signaled a right hand turn, and we were on a deserted street. This was going to be easy.‎ ‎“Turn left and go up Young Blood Hill,” he ordered. My hometown is in the mountains, and Young Blood Hill was almost vertical. As I eased up the steep hill and came to a stop at the top, I heard the car’s engine die. My heart sank. I would have to start it again without rolling back down the hill. I swallowed hard and turned the key; as I moved my foot from the brake, the car began to roll. I suppose I could have rolled all the way back to the bottom except for one thing. There was something behind me which stopped my roll with a rough shake and crash of glass—a police car.‎ The policeman wrote me a ticket as I looked over the damage, and the man from the Driver’s License Office slid behind the wheel. I waited until we had parked before I asked how long a person had to wait before taking the test again. ‎ ‎24. What time does “that Tuesday morning” in Paragraph 2 refer to?‎ A. The morning when he made an “A” in his driver’s training course.‎ B. The morning when he knew the driver’s manual perfectly well.‎ C. The first Tuesday morning immediately after his16th birthday.‎ D.

They play until they are exhausted, and call this a vacation. They live to think of themselves as hard-hearted business men, yet they are push-overs for any hard luck story. They have the biggest of nearly everything including government,‎ ‎ motor cars and debts. Yet they like to think of themselves as little people, average men, and they would like to cut everything down to their own size. They show off their tall buildings, high mountains, long rivers, big state, the best country, the best world, the best heaven. Yet they also have the most traffic deaths, the most waste, and the most liars.‎ When they meet, they are always telling each other, "Take it easy," then they rush off like crazy in opposite directions. They play games as if they were fighting a war, and fight wars as if playing a game. They marry more, and go broke more often. They love children, animals, mother, work, excitement, noise, nature, television shows, comedy, high pace, sports, the underdog, the hero, the flag, Christmas, jazz, shapely women and muscular men, classical recordings, crowds, comics, cigarettes, warm houses in winter and cool ones in summer, thick beefsteaks, coffee, ice cream, informal dress, plenty of running water, do-it-yourself, and a working week limited to forty hours or less.‎ They crowd their highways with cars while complaining about the traffic, troop to movies and television while blaming the quality and the advertisements, go to church but don't care much for sermons (布道), and drink too much in the hope of relaxing—only to find themselves drunk into even bigger dreams.‎ There is of course, no typical (典型的) American. But if you added them all together and then divided by 226, 000, 000 they would look something like what this chapter has tried to describe.‎ ‎28. What may be the best title of the passage?‎ ‎ A. The Americans. B. Life in America.‎ C. Strange people. D. Great America ‎29. What is the meaning of the underlined sentence in Para.1?‎ ‎ A. They like listening to bad luck stories.‎ ‎ B. They push the interesting stories away.‎ ‎ C. They can easily be moved by sad stories.‎ ‎ D. They are informed of good luck stories often.‎ ‎30. Which one of the following is probably NOT what the Americans love?‎ ‎ A. noise B. advertisement C. smoking D. fresh water ‎31. In what way did the author write this passage?‎ ‎ A. By comparison. B. By giving examples.‎ C. By experimenting. D. By telling stories.‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ D We are surrounded every day by thousands of chemicals. These chemicals have been found to be safe on their own. But are they still “safe” if mixed with other chemicals? That’s the big question.‎ On its own, each chemical seems harmless. But in combination with other chemicals, they may become deadly. That is the finding of a two-year study by a high-profile task force of scientists. The task force was told to investigate the cancer-causing possibility of chemical mixtures. ‎ Linda Gulliver was one of 174 scientists on the task force. Their job was to study the cancer-causing potential of 85 chemicals. All 85 are said to be common in the environment.‎ Ms Gulliver explains that chemicals have the potential to form dangerous mixtures. Even simple minerals can become dangerous when mixed with chemicals found in plastics or beauty products. While the chemicals are safe on their own, she says, the researchers found that many chemical compound cause cancer in human cells.‎ Working in groups, the scientists explored how different chemical mixtures could lead to cancer. Ms Gulliver’s team looked at the ability of different combinations to support the increase of malignant (恶性的) human cells.‎ She says the big issue—what she calls “the $ 64 million dollar question” — is, “Which common, everyday chemicals do people need to avoid?”‎ ‎“The $ 64 million dollar question that everybody wants to ask is, ‘Which chemicals should we be looking out for?’ And the answer to that is, ‘We don’t know yet.’”‎ She says the current way to identify whether chemicals cause cancer is to test them one at a time. This method leads, she adds, to a long list of supposedly “safe” chemicals. She and her team say that approach needs to change.‎ ‎“We definitely need certain research to find out what mixtures of chemicals would be more harmful than others; what groups of chemicals, when together, would produce more harmful effects. And at the moment, that is not known.”‎ ‎32. The purpose of the researchers’ work is ______.‎ A. to find ways to protect human cells B. to study the character of the chemicals C. to study the cancer-causing possibility of mixtures D. to study how deadly the chemicals in our homes are ‎33. According to Ms Gulliver’s words, their research work is _______.‎ A. still limited B. completely successful C. practical to other researchers D. not well received ‎34. What’s the best title of the passage?‎ A. Chemicals are everywhere ‎ B. Chemicals can lead to cancer C. What is in chemicals in our daily life?‎ D. Mixture of safe chemicals may cause cancer ‎35. What can be inferred from the passage?‎ A. Harmful chemicals are throughout our homes.‎ B. Scientists know which mixture does harm to our health.‎ C. Researchers have quick approaches to study the chemicals.‎ D. It is hard to tell what mixture of chemicals is harmful.‎ 第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）‎ 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 ‎ Are you truly happy?

People are obsessed with e-products such as smartphones, ipad and so on, thus 61 (ignore) face-to -face communication. ‎ Nobody can deny that smart phones have important significance in our life. To begin with, smartphones provide us 62 convenient ways to communicate with each other. With smartphones we not only make phone calls and send messages, but also make 63 (friend) with people around the world with socializing apps.

What’s worse, smartphone addiction takes up one’s spare time and distracts 66 from work and study. Last but not least, excessive use of smart phones 67 (prove)to be harmful both mentally and physically. ‎ Therefore, weighing the pros and cons, it is important for us to make rational use of smart phones. When we enjoy the conveniences 68 (bring) by smartphones, remember that smartphones are also stealing our time and doing harm to our health. Whenever possible, remember 69 (take) our time to interact face-to-face with our family and friends. A bright smile, a warm hug and some tender words will help build 70 warm and intimate interpersonal relationship.‎ 第四部分：写作（共两节， 满分35分）‎ 第一节 短文改错（共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分）‎ 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：在错的词下面画一横线，并在该词下面写出修改后的词。‎ ‎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。 ‎ In the summer of 2017, I was admitted into YunYang‎ ‎Senior High School, where I began my school life as a senior student here.
