This past year has been one of the hardest for me. I felt I was stuck in a position that had nothing to do with what I wanted to do with my life. In January, after two years of being together, my boyfriend left me. I read your blog every morning as I drink my coffee at work, but it wasn't until this March that I told myself "no more negativity" as you taught readers in your blog. Since then I've got into new habits at work to keep my energy positive. When people walk in the front door, I'm the first face they see, so I smile big when I say "good morning" to them, especially on Mondays. Instead of waiting for someone to ask me for help, I offer it with an open mind. The CEO noticed my change and offered me the executive assistant position that I wanted. One of the biggest things I've taken to heart from your blog is changing my opinions on my job. Yes, it was not an important position, but when I was passionate （热情的） about it, I could make my life fulfilling. All in all, I have to thank you somehow for having the passion to help others because it truly is inspiring to me. So thank you so much, John. My life has changed because your words pointed me in the right direction, Take care! Sincerely , Amber 24. Amber wrote the letter mainly to______ A. introduce herself to John B. talk about her bad year C. ask for some advice D. express her thanks 25. We can infer from the passage that Amber______ A. didn't like her boyfriend B. spent a lot of time online C. wasn't satisfied with her job D. received very good education ‎26. What is implied about John in the letter? A. He is a very famous writer. ‎ B. He used to live a very negative life. C. He doesn't like sharing his life stories. ‎ D. He likes helping others through writing positive blogs.‎ ‎27. What does Amber's change tell us? A. Practice makes perfect. B. Bad luck doesn't exist ‎ long. C. A positive attitude is rewarding. D. A friend in need is a friend indeed.‎ ‎ C The African elephant, the largest land animal remaining on earth , is of great importance to African ecosystem(生态系统). Unlike other animals, the African elephant is to a great extent the builder of its environment. As a big plant-eater, it largely shapes the forest-and-savanna(大草原)surroundings in which it lives, therefore setting the terms of existence for millions of other animals that live in its habitat(栖息地). ‎ It is the elephant's great desire for food that makes it a disturber of the environment and an important builder of its habitat. In its continuous search for the 300 pounds of plants it must have every day, it kills small trees and underbushes, and pulls branches off big trees. This results in numerous open spaces in both deep tropical forests and in the woodlands that cover part of ‎ the African savannas. In these open spaces are numerous plants in various stages of growth that attract a variety of other plant-eaters. ‎ Take the rain forests for example. In their natural state, the spreading branches overhead shut out sunlight and prevent the growth of plants on the forest floor. By pulling down trees and eating plants, elephants make open spaces, allowing new plants to grow on the forest floor. In such situations, the forests become suitable for large hoofed plant-eaters to move around and for small plant-eaters to get their food as well. ‎ What worries scientists now is that the African elephant has become an endangered species. If the elephant disappears, scientists say, many other animals will also disappear from vast areas of forest and savanna, greatly changing and worsening the whole ecosystem. ‎ ‎28. What is the passage mainly about? ‎ A. Disappearance of African elephants. ‎ B. Forests and savannas as habitats for African elephants. ‎ C. The effect of African elephants' search for food. ‎ D. The eating habit of African elephants. ‎ ‎29. What does the underlined phrase “setting the terms” most probably mean? ‎ A. Fixing the time. B. Worsening the state. ‎ C. Improving the quality. D. Deciding the conditions. ‎ ‎30. What do we know about the open spaces in the passage? ‎ A. They result from the destruction of rain forests. ‎ B. They provide food mainly for African elephants. ‎ C. They are home to many endangered animals. ‎ D. They are attractive to plant-eating animals of different kinds. ‎ ‎31. The passage is developed mainly by________. ‎ A. showing the effect and then explaining the causes ‎ B. pointing out similarities and differences ‎ C. describing the changes in space order ‎ D. giving examples ‎ ‎ ‎ D Experiments under way in several labs aim to create beneficial types of genetically modified foods, including starchier potatoes and caffeine-free coffee beans. Genetic engineers are even trying to transfer genes from a cold-winter fish to make a frost-resistant tomato.‎ A low-sugar GM strawberry now in the works might one day allow people with health problems such as diabetes (糖尿病) to enjoy the little delicious red fruits again. GM beans and grains rich in protein(蛋白质) might help people at risk of developing kwashiorkor. Kwashiorkor, a disease caused by severe lack of protein, is common in parts of the world where there are severe food shortages.‎ Commenting on GM foods, Jonathon Jones, a British researcher, said: "The future benefits will be enormous（巨大的）, and the best is yet to come". To some people, GM foods are no different from unmodified foods. "A tomato is a tomato," said Brian Sansoni, an American food manufacturer.‎ Critics of GM foods challenge Sansoni's opinion. They worry about the harm that GM crops might do to people, other animals, and plants.‎ In a recent lab study conducted at Cornell University, scientists tested pollen(花粉) made by BT corn, which makes up one-fourth of the U.S. corn crop. The scientist dropped the pollen onto milkweed, a plant that is the only known food source of a butterfly caterpillar(毛虫). Within four days of feeding on the leaves, almost half of a test group of caterpillars died. "This is a warning bell." said Cornell researcher Linda Raynor.‎ Some insects that are not killed by GM foods might find themselves made stronger. How so? The insecticides are used on the crops to kill the pests. But GM plants produce a continuous level of insecticide. Insects relying on those crops may develop resistance to the plants and they may also develop a resistance to the insecticide.‎ At the forum on GM food held last year in Canada. GM crops that have been made resistant to the herbicide might crossbreed with wild plants, creating "superweeds" that could take over whole fields.‎ So where do you stand? Should GM food be banned in the United States, as they are in parts of Europe? Or do their benefits outweigh（胜过） any of the risks they might carry?‎ ‎32. The first three paragraphs try to give the idea that__________‎ A. GM foods may bring about great benefits to humans.‎ B. GM foods are no different from ordinary ones.‎ C. GM foods may have both benefits and harm.‎ D. GM foods are particularly good to the kwashiorkor patients.‎ ‎33. Why is the pollen-sprayed milkweed mentioned in Paragraph 5?‎ A. To show GM foods can kill insects effectively.‎ B. To show GM foods contain more protein.‎ C. To show GM foods also have a dark side.‎ D. To show GM foods may harm crops.‎ ‎34. What happens to those insects when not killed by the spray of insecticide?‎ A. They may lose their ability to produce lay eggs.‎ B. They may have a higher ability to adapt to the environment.‎ C. They move to other fields free from insecticide.‎ D. They never eat again those plants containing insecticide.‎ ‎35. Which of the following statements concerning banning GM foods is true according to the passage?‎ A. Underdeveloped countries have banned GM foods.‎ B. Both Europe and the U.S. have banned GM foods.‎ C. Most European countries have not banned GM foods.‎ D. The United States has not banned GM foods.‎ 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。‎ ‎ Have you ever felt a sudden feeling of joy because you heard a favorite song playing? Then you know that music can have a strong effect on your emotions. 36 It can help get you out of a bad mood (心情) or stay in a good one, says Alicia Ann Clair, professor at the University of Kansas. 37 ‎ To cheer up, listen to Latin music or anything with a strong beat or a fast speed _38 . When you want to relax after a busy day, music with a slower speed can calm you down. ‎ Listen to calming music before you start any stressful activities, advises Dr. Clair. "Once you' re in a good state of mind, it' s easier to keep it." You can lower stress at work with music, too, by playing relaxing tunes (曲调). 39 "If you listen to them all day long, you' 11 stop noticing them," Dr. Clair explains. Then the music won't have any effect.‎ ‎ 40 ."To feel energetic, start with something relaxing, and then gradually increase the speed and beat," says Dr. Clair. For example, first play some nice slow love songs, and then listen to something more energetic. When you want to calm down after a busy week at work, just do the opposite.‎ A. Music can also help you relax and feel active.‎ B. Try to take advantage of this power of music.‎ C. But only play them when you really need them.‎ D. Loud and fast music can fill you with energy.‎ E. There are different kinds of music around the world.‎ F. Put on your favorite song, but only if it is one that can lift your spirits.‎ G. You can change your mood by changing from one kind of music to another.‎ ‎ ‎ 第三部分 英语知识运用（共两节，满分45分）‎ 第一节 ‎ 完形填空（共20小题，每小题1.5分，满分30分）‎ ‎ 阅读下列短文，从短文后各题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。‎ Last Sunday, I sat with Tony, my college classmate, in a well-known coffee shop in Buenos Aires, Argentina.
