Between them they cook up a “bucket list” – a to-do list of all they want to do before they kick the bucket. The movie makes you wonder what would be on your bucket list. So let’s pack up some and see what it would cost to go out and have a little fun.‎ THE PYRAMIDS, GIZA, EGYPT On to the pyramids, surely on anyone’s bucket list. Exotik Tours can take you there on a variety of trips, including their popular Egypt Express which includes three nights in Cairo and a three-night Nile Cruise. From $1,384, including four-and five-star accommodation, 12 meals and a ton of sightseeing.‎ www.exotiktours.com 416-646-3347‎ TAJ MAHAL, AGRA, INDIA One of the world’s most fascinating images, India’s Taj Mahal makes even Nicholson and Freeman look calm. Toronto’s Goway Travel has many suggestions for India, including a three-day independent visit to Agra. Stay at the attractive Oberoi AmarVilas overlooking the Taj. Include two breakfasts, touring and airport transfer from $1,420.‎ www.gowaytravel.com 416-322-1034‎ THE GREAT WALL, CHINA If the Great Wall of China is on your bucket list, check into Tour East Holiday’s four-day Amazing Beijing Tour for $580 per person, four-star accommodation, sightseeing including the Forbidden City and the Great Wall, breakfasts and two ‎ lunches, transportation and guide.‎ www.toureastholidays.com 416-929-0888‎ THE HIMALAYAS, NEPAL And on to the Himalayas. Talk about “something truly majestic(壮丽的). See the top of the world on GAP Adventures’ Everest Adventure tour, a 15-day exploration including Everest Base Camp, teahouse lodge stays, and walking through Sherpa villages. Incredibly affordable at just $665 plus local payment of $250. GAP Adventures warns that this is a physically demanding trip.‎ www.gapadventures.com 416-260-0999‎ ‎21.

If you take on the Everest Adventure tour, you should be aware that ________.‎ A.

According to the passage, where can you enjoy a view of the whole Taj Mahal?‎ ‎ A. In Sherpa village. B. At Oberoi AmarVilas ‎ C. Near the Forbidden City D. Through Egypt Express.‎ B Reports tell us that Americans work more and vacation less than people in other major industrial countries. Still，millions of Americans do try to get away from home for a week or two in the summer months. Some might even have the time and money to spend longer on vacation.‎ For example， many retired Americans can be found driving around the United States in big recreational vehicles，known as R. V. ’s. These serve as a home away from home. In fact，it might even be their only home as they see the country.‎ Some American families get in their cars and drive to historic places like Colonial Williamsburg in Virginia. There，they can experience what life was like for early Americans. If that is not exciting enough， also in Williamsburg is a water park and an amusement park with rides.‎ Other Americans visit national parks like Yellowstone or Yosemite out in the West. They want to spend time with nature. Or they take their vacation by a lake or the ocean. They might swim or fish. But many just want to sit and enjoy the feeling of doing nothing，except maybe read a book.‎ Some families fly to other countries on vacation. Or they go on a cruise ship(大型游轮）and stop in different ports. Cruise ships are like floating cities.‎ But not everyone goes someplace special on vacation. This might be the only time for people to work on things like home improvement projects. And while they do that，they might think of all the fun their friends are having.‎ ‎24. What can be the best title for the text?‎ A. Americans work more and vacation less. B. Where Americans go on their summer vacations. C. Different places for summer vacations. D. Not all Americans take summer vacations.‎ ‎25. If you want to spend time with nature，you can do the following things except ________.‎ A. to visit national parks B. to see the country C. to stay by a lake D. to visit historic places ‎26. Which of the following is NOT true?‎ A. People choose different destinations depending on different interests. B. People interested in history can have fun in Colonial Williamsburg. C. All the people take vacations only to do nothing but relax themselves. D. Not all Americans can afford time and money to go on a vacation.‎ ‎27. What does the underlined sentence of the passage mean?‎ A. They fully enjoy doing their work on home improvement projects. B. They think of their work at home as a special kind of vacation. C. They can imagine what fun their friends are having on vacation. D. They might envy their friends having time going on vacation.‎ C A new study warns that about thirty percent of the world’s people may not have enough water by the year 2025.‎ A private American organization called Population Action International did the new study. It says more than 335 million people lack enough water now. The people live in 28 countries. Most of the countries are in Africa or the Middle East.‎ P-A-I researcher Robert Engelman says by the year 2025, about 3,000 million people may lack water. At least 18 more countries are expected to have severe water problems. The demand for water keeps increasing. Yet the amount of water on the earth stays the same.‎ Mr. Engelman says the population in countries that lack water is growing faster than in other parts of the world. He says population growth in these countries will continue to increase.‎ The report says lack of water in the future may result in several problems. It may increase health problems. Lack of water often means drinking water is not safe. Mr ‎ Engelman says there are problems all over the world because of diseases, such as cholera, which are carried in water. Lack of water may also result in more international conflict. Countries may have to compete for water in the future. Some countries now get sixty percent of their fresh water from other countries. This is true of Egypt, the Netherlands, Cambodia, Syria, Sudan, and Iraq. And the report says lack of water would affect the ability of developing to improve their economies. This is because new industries often need a large amount of water when they are beginning.‎ The Population Action International study gives several solutions to the water problem. One way, it says, is to find ways to use water for more than one purpose. Another way is to teach people to be careful not to waste water. A third way is to use less water of agriculture.‎ The report also says long-term solutions to the water problem must include controls on population growth. It says countries cannot provide clean water unless they slow population growth by limiting the number of children people have. ‎ ‎28. The first four paragraphs mainly tell us .‎ ‎ A. the study of the global water condition B. the importance of water resources ‎ C. the seriousness of water shortage D. the fact of the global lack of water ‎ ‎29. Which of the following problems is NOT true about lack of water according to the passage?‎ ‎ A. It may bring about a lot of health problems.‎ ‎ B. It may result in more international conflict.‎ ‎ C. It may lead to the improvement of new industries.‎ ‎ D. It may influence the development of the economics.‎ ‎30. Which of the following is the best way to solve water problem in the long run?‎ A. To use water in a variety of ways. B. To limit the rising birthrate of the earth.‎ ‎ C. To reduce the use of agricultural water. D. To become aware of the water problem.‎ ‎31. Which of the following shows the structure of the passage?‎ ‎ A． B. C. D.‎ ‎①②③④ ①②③ ①②③④ ①②③‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎⑤ ④⑤ ⑤ ⑥ ④‎ ‎ ‎ ‎⑥ ⑦ ⑥ ⑦ ⑦ ⑤‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ⑥ ⑦‎ ‎ D When it’s five o’clock, people leave their office. The length of the workday, for many workers, is defined by time. They leave when the clock tells them they’re done.‎ These days, the time is everywhere: not just on clocks or watches, but on cell-phones and computers. That may be a bad thing, particularly at work. New research shows on that clock-based work schedules hinder （阻碍）morale（士气） and creativity.‎ Clock-timers organize their day by blocks of minutes and hours. For example: a meeting from 9 am to 10 a.m., research from 10 a.m. to noon, etc. On the other hand, task-timers have a list of things they want to accomplish. They work down the list, each task starts when the previous task is completed. It is said that all of us employ a mix of both these types of planning.‎ What, then, are the effects of thinking about time in these different ways? Does one make us more productive? Better at the tasks at hand? Happier? In experiments conducted by Tamar Avnet and Anne-Laure Sellier, they had participants organize different activities—from project planning， holiday shopping, to yoga—by time or to-do list to measure how they performed under “clock time” vs “task time.” They found clock timers to be more efficient but less happy because they felt little control over their lives. Task timers are happier and more creative, but less productive. They tend to enjoy the moment when something good is happening, and seize opportunities that come up.‎ The researchers argue that task-based organizing tends to be undervalued and under-supported in the business culture. Smart companies，they believe, will try to bake more task-based planning into their strategies.‎ This might be a small change to the way we view work and the office, but the researchers argue that it challenges a widespread characteristic of the economy: work organized by clock time. While most people will still probably need, and be, to some extent, clock-timers, task-based timing should be used when performing a job that requires more creativity. It’ll make those tasks easier, and the task-doers will be happier.‎ ‎32. What does the author think of time displayed everywhere？‎ A. It makes everybody time-conscious.‎ B. It is a convenience for work and life.‎ C. It may have a negative effect on creative work.‎ D. It clearly indicates the fast pace of modern life.‎ ‎33. What did Tamar Avnet and Anne-Laure Sellier find in their experiments about clock-timers？‎ A. They seize opportunities as they come up.‎ B. They always get their work done in time.‎ C. They have more control over their lives.‎ D. They tend to be more productive.‎ ‎34. What do the researchers say about today’s business culture？‎ A. It does not support the strategies adopted by smart companies.‎ B. It does not attach enough importance to task-based practice.‎ C. It places more emphasis on work efficiency than on workers‘ lives，‎ D. It aims to bring employees‘ potential and creativity into full play.‎ ‎35. What do the researchers suggest？‎ A. Task-based timing is preferred for doing creative work.‎ B. It is important to keep a balance between work and life.‎ C. Performing creative jobs tends to make workers happier.‎ D. A scientific standard should be adopted in job evaluation.‎ 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．‎ To be more grateful in life means that you are also allowing yourself to be happier, more contented and more satisfied with everything that has been going on around you. But with all the stress, all the disappointments and all the anxiety around you, I bet you ask yourself this question all the time: “How exactly can I be more grateful with life?” 36 .‎ ‎1. Learn to live in the moment.‎ Life is wonderful adventure full of enriching experiences and endless possibilities. Don’t just go through the motions of repetitive activities and boring tasks. No! Being a mindless zombie(僵尸) can make you more likely to take things for granted. 37 , make an effort to enjoy the experience. You’re supposed to attend a conference? Absorb it. Babysit your niece? Enjoy the moment. Eat a 15-minute lunch? Taste each bite.‎ ‎2. 38 .‎ Being aware of your goal to be more grateful can help you look for things to be really more grateful for. Gratitude is a conscious decision. You have to practice it consistently.‎ ‎3. Control your thoughts.‎ Of course you have the power to control what you’re thinking of! Consider this exercise, for example: if you find yourself thinking more and more self-entitled, stop. 39 . You are given consciousness. Make use of it wisely.‎ ‎4. Always resist the temptation of comparing yourself with other people.‎ As humans, we have the natural tendency to compare ourselves with others with the hope of attaining satisfaction. Actually, this kind of activity does not help you feel to be more grateful in life. 40 ! You will always be meeting someone richer, which makes you feel inferior to others! Don’t do it, please.‎ Every little thing counts. You have the ability to make yourself feel to be more grateful in your life.‎ A. It does the opposite B. Express gratitude all the time C. Appreciate what you have right now D. And if you find yourself repeating negative junk, stop E. Instead of doing something just for the sake of doing it F. Well, the following are some tips to help you with this particular concern G. Words that stress you and make you feel worthless should definitely be removed.‎ 第三部分 完形填空（共20小题；每小题1分，满分20分） ‎ 阅读下面短文,从短文后所给各题的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中，选出可以填入空白的最佳选项。‎ It was the first morning of the New Year and the weather was very cold.
