He filled three pots with water and placed each on a high fire. Once the three pots began to boil, he placed potatoes, eggs and coffee beans in them. After 20 minutes, he took them out, putting the potatoes and eggs in a bowl and the coffee in a cup. Turning to his daughter, he said, “Look closer, and touch the potatoes.” She did and noted that they were soft. He then asked her to take an egg and break it. After pulling off the shell, she observed the hard-boiled egg. Finally, he asked her to taste the coffee. Its good smell brought a smile to her face.‎ ‎“Father, what does this mean?” she asked. He then explained that the potatoes, the eggs and the coffee beans were in the same adversity (逆境)—the boiling water. However, each one reacted differently. ‎ The strong and hard potato became soft and weak in boiling water. The egg was fragile, with the thin outer shell protecting its liquid until it was put in the boiling water. Then the inside of the egg became hard, However, the coffee beans were unique. After they were exposed to the boiling water, they changed the water and created something new. “Which one do you want to be like?” he asked. “When adversity knocks on your door, how will you respond?”‎ In life, challenges happen to us all, but the only thing that truly matters is what happens within us. ‎ ‎24. Why did the girl complain to her father?‎ A. Because of her father’s busy work. ‎ B. Because of her hard life. ‎ C. Because of her tiring job. ‎ D. Because of the food her father cooked. ‎ ‎25. What can we infer from this story?‎ A. Different people have different reactions towards adversity.‎ B. The father was good at cooking C. The girl didn’t like the potatoes and eggs. ‎ D. The girl liked the coffee best. ‎ ‎26. What does the underlined word “fragile” mean in the 4th paragraph?‎ A. thick B. hard C. strong D. easily-broken ‎27. What would be the best title for the passage?‎ A. Father and daughter. ‎ B. A chef and coffee beans.‎ C. Challenges and responses D. Adversities and a chef C What should you think about when 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 especially strong 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. A 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. ‎ Your school may have taught you skills, such as typing or technical drawing, which you can use in your work.. You may be good at metalwork or cookery and look for a job where you can improve these skills. 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 have learned how 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 better to face any weakness 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.‎ ‎28. What is the passage mainly about?‎ A. The importance of working hard at school. ‎ B. Choosing a career according to one’s strengths.‎ C. How to face one’s weakness. ‎ D. The value of school work. ‎ ‎29. All the subjects may have direct value for job hunting EXCEPT .‎ A. mathematics B. English C. history D. technical drawing ‎30. The writer thinks that a student’s part-time job is probably .‎ A. a good way to find out his weak points B.of great use for his work in the future C. one of the best ways of earning extra money D. a waste of time he could have spent on study ‎31. From the passage we learn that if a student’s school performance is not good, he .‎ A. should pay more attention to learning skills and developing abilities B. will be regretful about his bad results C. may also do well in his future work D. should restart his study at school D Batteries can power anything from small sensors to large systems. While scientists are finding ways to make them smaller but even more powerful, problems can arise when these batteries are much larger and heavier than the devices themselves. University of Missouri(MU) researchers are developing a nuclear energy source that is smaller, lighter and more efficient. ‎ ‎“To provide enough power, we need certain methods with high energy density (密度)”，said Jae Kwon, assistant professor of electrical and computer engineering at MU. “The radioisotope (放射性同位素) battery can provide power density that is much higher than chemical batteries.”‎ Kwon and his research team have been working on building a small nuclear battery, presently the size and thickness of a penny, intended to power various micro/nanoelectromechanreal systems (MNEMS) Although nuclear batteries can cause concerns, Kwon said they are safe. ‎ ‎“People hear the word ‘nuclear’ and think of something very dangerous,” he said, “However, nuclear power sources have already been safely powering a variety of devices, such as pace-makers, space satellites and underwater systems.”‎ His new idea is not only in the battery’s size, but also in its semiconductor(半导体). Kwon’s battery uses a liquid semiconductor rather than a solid semiconductor. ‎ ‎“The key part of using a radioactive battery is that when you harvest the energy, part of the radiation energy can damage the lattice structure(晶体结构) of the solid semiconductor,” Kwon said, “By using a liquid semiconductor, we believe we can minimize that problem.”‎ Together with J. David Robertson, chemistry professor and associate director of the MU Research Reactor, Kwon is working to build and test the battery, In the future, they hope to increase the battery’s power, shrink its size and try with various other materials. Kwon said that battery could be thinner than the thickness of human hair. ‎ ‎32. Which of the following is TRUE of Jae Kwon?‎ A. He developed a chemical battery.‎ B. He teaches chemistry at MU.‎ C. He made a breakthrough in computer engineering.‎ D. He is working on a nuclear energy source. ‎ ‎33. Liquid semiconductor is used to .‎ A. reduce the damage to lattice structure B. test the power of nuclear batteries C. decrease the size of nuclear batteries D. get rid of the radioactive wasteo32‎ ‎34. According to Jae Kwon, his nuclear battery . ‎ A. uses a solid semiconductor B. will soon replace the present ones C. could be extremely thin D. has passed the final test ‎35. The text is most probably a .‎ A. book review B. science news report C. newspaper ad D. science fiction story 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。‎ Developing good study habits isn’t easy. 36 In this way, you’ll become more and more successful as a student. ‎ Start by allowing no interruptions. 37 You have to give 100 percent of your attention to your work. Don’t allow yourself to be distracted by friends or fellow students. Keep your goal in mind; know what you have to do and when it needs to be done. Don’t let other people influence you into not doing your work. ‎ ‎38 If you study best in the morning, plan to do your hardest subjects first. Remember not to leave today’s work till tomorrow. A delay like this is called procrastination. If you delay for any reason, you’ll find it more and more difficult to get things done when you need to. You may rush to make up the time you wasted getting started, resulting in careless and error-filled work.‎ Another good way to study is to take part in partnered and group-study sessions. These allow students to share ideas, and help each other deal with difficult material. 39 ‎ Forming good study habits can be difficult at first, and requires energy and a strong will, But if you commit yourself to it, success will be yours. 40 By doing so, you will know that you have tried. If you are satisfied with what you’ve done and know that you have tried your best, your grade will be the icing on the cake. ‎ A. Always give your best in the classroom and in study sessions. ‎ B. It’s impossible to study while chatting or watching TV. ‎ C. Figure out when you’re most productive. ‎ D. You may do well enough but maybe you can hardly achieve your goal easily. ‎ E. Putting off your task for any reason can make it difficult to finish on time. ‎ F. But start with a plan, put in a lot of hard work, and studying will become easier. ‎ G. In addition, learning among students is a good way of getting a firmer grasp of the material.‎ 第三部分 语言知识运用（百强校英语解析团队专供）(共两节，满分45分)‎ 第一节 完形填空(共20小题; 每小题1. 5 分，满分30 分)‎ 阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B.
