Seven others were so badly damaged that their owners had to leave them, and fifteen others had broken windows or broken roofs. One person was killed, several were badly hurt and taken to hospital, and a number of other people received smaller hurt. Altogether over two hundred people were homeless after the storm.‎ A farmer, Mr. Tan, said that the storm began early in the morning and lasted for over an hour.‎ ‎"I was eating with my wife and children," he said, "when we heard a loud noise. A few minutes later our house fell down on top of us. We tried our best to climb out but then I saw that one of my children was missing. I went back inside and found him, safe but very frightened."‎ Mrs. Woo Mei Fong said that her husband had just left for work when she felt that her house was moving. She ran outside at once with her children.‎ ‎"There was no time to take anything," she said, "A few minutes later, the roof came down."‎ Soldiers helped to take people out of the flooded area and the welfare department brought them food, clothes and shelter.‎ ‎21. How many homes altogether were damaged in the storm?‎ ‎ A. 7. B. 15. C. 16. D. 38.‎ ‎22. Where was Mr. Tan when the storm first began?‎ ‎ A. He was in bed. B. He was on the roof.‎ ‎ C. He was outside the house. D. He was inside the house.‎ ‎23. Which of the following may be the best title for this passage?‎ ‎ A. Good Soldiers B. Clever People ‎ C. A Terrible Storm D. A Lucky Woman B The earth is getting warmer. The planet is suffering. But what can you do about it? Reduce the amount of waste you generate. Use cleaner energy sources and go greener today, starting with these steps:‎ ‎1. Get a reusable water bottle ‎ Americans buy about 25 billion single-serving plastic water bottles each year. That's an average of 83 bottles per person per year. Plastic bottles take plenty of resources to produce, including fuel for transportation and petroleum to make the plastic. Even recycling bottles uses energy.‎ ‎2. Eat less meat ‎ You don't need to become a vegetarian to help save the planet. Eating meat just one day less a week can reduce your negative impact on the environment. More water, energy and land are required to produce meat than to produce grain.‎ ‎3. Switch to energy-efficient light bulbs ‎ Most households use standard incandescent(白炽的) bulbs. But compact fluorescent(荧光的) light bulbs, or CFLs, use 66 percent less energy than standard bulbs, produce just as much light, last up to 10 times longer and don't need to be replaced as often. If every household in the United ‎ States replaced just one incandescent light bulb with a CFL bulb, it would equal removing one million cars from the road.‎ ‎4. Buy organic and local food ‎ Did you know that only 1 percent of pesticides(杀虫剂) applied to crops reach the pests they target? The rest enter the environment. Organic food is grown without the use of pesticides. Organic farming can use 50 percent less energy than traditional farming methods. Buying local food saves on the fuel used to transport food grown elsewhere, thousands of miles across the country or around the world.‎ ‎5. Recycle your electronics ‎ Everyone knows the importance of recycling glass and plastic, but what about cell phones, computers, CDs and batteries? Electronics are responsible for about 40 percent of toxic(有毒的) heavy metals such as lead and mercury. Check with your city's recycling facilities to see if they take electronics.‎ ‎ 24. The readers of this passage are called on to  .‎ ‎ A. keep a balanced diet B. use water in a wise way ‎ C. donate money for charity D. help reduce global warming ‎ 25. What is an advantage of CFLs according to the passage?‎ ‎ A. They use more energy but produce more light.‎ ‎ B. They are as energy-efficient as incandescent bulbs.‎ ‎ C. They can last longer so don't need to be replaced often.‎ ‎ D. They cost less money than standard incandescent bulbs.‎ ‎ 26. Which of the following figures is correct according to the passage?‎ ‎ A. 99 of the pesticides used on crops is effective in practice.‎ ‎ B. Eating meat one day less a week helps cut environment costs.‎ ‎ C. Every year an American buys 63 plastic water bottles on average.‎ ‎ D. Electronics account for half of poisonous heavy metals on the earth.‎ ‎ 27. Which can be the best title for this passage?‎ ‎ A. Why Is the Earth Getting Warmer?‎ ‎ B. What Can We Do About Pollution?‎ ‎ C. How Can You Lead a Greener Life?‎ ‎ D. Who Is to Blame for Global Warming?‎ C ‎ It’s been just over a year since 9-year-old Zion Harvey received a double-hand transplant(移植), and now, what he really wants to do is playing football. “I feel happy about my new hands, and I don’t feel different. I like that now I can throw a football further than when I didn’t have hands,” he said.‎ ‎ The nation’s youngest hand-transplant patient has been working hard to learn how to use his new hands. He lost his hands and his feet 7 years ago after suffering from a serious infection. In August, the boy showed off his new abilities by throwing out the first ball at a baseball game. Dr. Scott Levin, team leader of Zion’s operation, said Zion was faced with the operation much braver than many adults. “I’ve never seen Zion cry,” Levin said. “He’s just an amazing boy. He has such ‎ courage and determination and gives us all inspiration.”‎ ‎ Zion said his courage came from the two most amazing people: his mom and his grandma. His mother, Pattie Ray, said, “It’s been a long journey but now I feel like I am living in my dream. It’s his dream, and it’s mine, too. I’m just living through him, and I’m just here to support him in any way and help him do whatever he wants to do.”‎ ‎ However，Zion told reporters his mom wouldn’t let him try out for football. His mom said it’s too dangerous. She also pointed out that he might be playing against little kids, not professionals, and she told him they would discuss it later. Zion tried to counter her argument. “My next goal: convince Mom to let me play football,” he said.‎ ‎28. What is Zion’s attitude towards his transplanted hands?‎ ‎ A. He likes them a lot B. He tries to ignore them ‎ C. He accepts them unwillingly D. He has mixed feelings about them.‎ ‎29. What did Dr. Scott Levin think of Zion?‎ ‎ A. He was unusually quiet. B. He was well worth praising.‎ ‎ C. He was cleverer than expected. D. He was a talented football player.‎ ‎30. Which of the following words can best describe Pattie Ray?‎ ‎ A. Sensitive and strict. B. Devoted and supportive ‎ C. Optimistic and active D. Open-minded and outgoing.‎ ‎31. What does the underlined word “counter” in the last paragraph mean?‎ ‎ A. Accept B. Prove C. Be against D. Comment D ‎ What would you like to be when you grow up? A teacher? A doctor? An astronaut? What do you need to do to achieve your dream job? Perhaps you think that studying well and then going on to work hard will get you successful career you want. We are constantly taught that our hard work will eventually pay off.‎ ‎ But a government survey has shown that hard work is not the only thing that will help you to move up the ladder. Two thirds of people believe that who you know matters more than what you know when it comes to social activity. So are the connections that you have more important than your education?‎ ‎ 76% of the people in the survey believed that family background is important in influencing your chances of success. They believe that if you are privileged from birth, you are more likely to have a successful career, especially if your family is wealthy.‎ ‎ Even if you don’t have a privileged background, the people you know can still make a difference to your career. Networking is a skill which is encouraged by many career advisers. Some companies run networking workshops to try and encourage staff to meet other people, to communicate and build relationships. It’s a valuable skill. ‎ ‎ But the survey also showed something quite interesting. Although most people believed that networks are more important than education, many people put their own career success down to talent, rather than background. 41% of the people said that their parents’ income had influenced their life, but at the same time, another 41% believed that they had achieved their own success.‎ ‎ So which is more important, what you know or who you know? It seems that by working ‎ hard and making lots of connections, the answer may be that both are very important.‎ ‎32. Which of the following is closet in meaning to the underlined part?‎ A. Practice makes perfect B. Nothing is impossible C. Hope for the best D. No pains, no gains ‎33. According to the government survey，the most important factor to help people move up the ladder is _________.‎ ‎ A. hard work B. education C. social relationship D. social activity ‎34. Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?‎ ‎ A. 76% of the people think social relationship is most important.‎ ‎ B. 41% of the people believe parents’ income is most important.‎ ‎ C. 76% of the people think family background ranks first.‎ ‎ D. 41% of the people believe they gained their own success.‎ ‎35. From the passage we can infer that the writer writes the article to _____.‎ ‎ A. stress the importance of education ‎ B. challenge the traditional belief ‎ C. make lots of social connections ‎ D. encourage people to work hard.‎ 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。选项中的两项为多余选项。‎ Every single human being on this planet has a path and purpose to fulfill, whether they realize it or not. 36 ．‎ List what you love and connect the dots. 37 It may not make sense at first, but all of the things you enjoy doing are part of your path in one form or another, so grab a pen and a piece of paper and start writing. Once you have your list, take a step back and see how all these brilliant pieces might connect to the work you are meant to do.‎ Identify what you do with ease. Often our passion and purpose are staring us right in the face, but it’s so natural to us that we don’t think anything about it. 38 Just because they are easy for you doesn’t mean that’s the case for everyone else. By identifying what comes naturally to you, you have the ability to build on your strengths and help others in ways you never thought possible.‎ ‎ 39 Finding your passion is directly related to doing the things that light you up and set your soul on fire. If you love to teach, run, and host live events, then please, do them all! Who says your life purpose has to be just one thing? You are meant to experience life and all that it has offered.‎ Ask others to help. If you are still feeling stuck in finding your passion and purpose in life, it might be time to ask others for help. It can be difficult for you to see where you truly shine because you are simply too close to connecting the dots on your own. Friends, family members and professionals have a view that you don’t. 40 ‎ ‎ A. Do what makes you happy.‎ ‎ B. Find what you do with ease.‎ ‎ C. Don’t overlook the things that are easy for you.‎ ‎ D. They can help you to see things within yourself.‎ ‎ E. You cannot count on others to help you completely.‎ ‎ F. Here are ways to find your passion and purpose from now on.‎ ‎ G. Identifying the things you love is the best way to find your passion and purpose.‎ 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）‎ Imagine loving someone so much that you’d swim more than 5,000 miles to see him or her. Dindim manages to swim that far every year to 41 his friend John.‎ ‎ This is 42, not only because of the love between the two friends, but because Dindim is ‎43 a penguin.‎ ‎ John found Dindim covered in oil, hardly 44 on a beach near his home.

No matter how many times I read the 62 (explain), I could not understand the difference between a “tack" and a “jibe”---two methods of turning a boat ---one much 63 (safe) than the other. Later, one day, when I was sailing, a heavy wind blew up. We needed to head back, 64 I mistook the “tack” for the “jibe” and pushed the boat in the wrong direction. Before I realized 65 (I) mistake, it was too late. Luckily, no one 66 (hurt). Only after this experience did I 67 (clear) understand the sailing phrase “turning on the wind” that I 68 (read) so many times in the textbook.I never confused a “jibe” with a “tack” again! Now I often share this story 69 my students after they have made mistakes. I hope they can learn something from their mistakes and correct them instead of 70 (regret) all day.‎ 第四部分: 写作(共两节, 满分35分) ‎ 第一节：短文改错 (共10分,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。每处错误涉及一个单词的增加、删除或修改。‎ 增加：在缺词处加一个漏词符号(/)，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：在错的词下画一横线，并在该词下面写出修改后的词。‎ 注意：1. 每处错误及修改均仅限一词；‎ ‎2. 只允许修改10处，多者(从第11处起)不计分。‎ Last night, when watched the annual Ten People Who Moved Chinese the Most in the CCTV, I learn some deeds of helping the poor children.

Under these circumstances, we are developing our special manners and values, which has raised people’s concern.‎ ‎ People worry we care too much about ourselves and are unwilling to cooperate with others, which makes it hard for us to achieve success in whatever we do. Besides, they consider us as lacking in perseverance, and this is what it takes to do any job well. Without it, we may easily give up in the face of difficulties. They are also concerned that we are so eager to win instant fame that we follow fashion blindly, which will in turn ruin our values and future.‎ ‎ However, we, a generation born in the 90s, have our own advantages despite some weaknesses. Firstly, we have the courage to meet challenges minded and creative. We ‎ can do our work more efficiently. Yet, we still need to learn more from those experienced. Please do trust us! Thank you for your listening!‎
