Thirteen-year-old Rabia is one of them. Tall and thin, she sits shaking in a yellow T-shirt at the Al Marj settlement, close to the Lebanese-Syrian border. ‎ Home for Rabia was once a two-story house near Damascus. Now it is a tent shared with her nine ‎ family members. ‎ Rabia’s face is covered with dirt, and she is tired and cold. She has just finished work, picking up potatoes that fell from a truck. Her typical day starts at ‎4 a.m., and she works a double shift that lasts about 16 hours, putting potatoes into bags. The only choice for her is that she can choose the first eight hours or the second eight hours. For this, she gets paid about $‎8 a day.‎ Working means Rabia misses school. Back in her village, she was the best in her class and good at everything. Her favorite subjects were Arabic literature and math. But, like many children now living in the settlements — there are no official refugee（难民）camps in Lebanon — that was Rabia’s old life. Life before war, before her family moved five times to escape the bombs, before leaving behind her bedroom, her toys and her friends without packing a bag, before “half the people I know” were dead The old life was full of laughter with her sister, Wala. But Wala, 14, got married two days ago to an 18-year-old Lebanese. Rabia is happy for her sister. Life in the settlement is tough — the children have nowhere to play, the bathing is poor and sexual abuse is out of control. You can’t blame parents — often confused, illiterate and poor — who want to marry off their daughters. They fear for their safety.‎ Increasing numbers of Rabia’s girlfriends are getting married. Once in rural Syria, a girl got married at 16. According to UNICEF, the age is now dropping to 12 or 13. It is no secret that Lebanese men want to marry Syrian refugee girls, who work hard and don’t ask for anything.‎ ‎11． Where is the passage most likely to have been taken from?‎ A. A news report. B. A book review.‎ C. A history book. D. A travel magazine.‎ ‎12．The underlined word “shift” in Para. 3 probably refers to ______.‎ A. the extra task B. the low pay C. the potato factory. D. the working period ‎13．The writer's purpose for writing Para. 4 is to ______.‎ A. present the dream of Rabia B. show the damage of the war C. predict the future of Syrian girls D. compare the life before war and now ‎ ‎ Lowest Book Prices Shop the Kindle Store for millions of books, newspapers, and magazines.

It’s French for John．And okay，I don’t live in France．But still，I’m basically a girl named John．If I lived in France，anyway．‎ This is the kind of luck I’ve had since before Mom even filled out my birth certificate．So it wasn’t any big surprise to me when the cab driver didn’t help me with my suitcase．I’d already had to tolerate arriving at the airport to find no one there to greet me，and then got no answer to my many phone calls，asking where my aunt and uncle were．Did they not want me after all? Had they changed their minds? Had they heard about my bad luck—all the way from Iowa—and decided they didn’t want any of it to rub off on them?‎ So when the cab driver，instead of getting out and helping me with my bags，just pushed a little button so that the trunk (汽车后备箱) popped open a few inches，it wasn’t the worst thing that had ever happened to me．It wasn’t even the worst thing that had happened to me that day．‎ According to my mom，most brownstones in New York City were originally single-family homes when they were built way back in the 1800s．But now they’ve been divided up into apartments，so that there’s one—or sometimes even two or more families—per floor．‎ Not Mom’s sister Evelyn’s brownstone，though．Aunt Evelyn and Uncle Ted Gardiner own all four floors of their brownstone．That’s practically one floor per person，since Aunt Evelyn and Uncle Ted only have three kids，my cousins Tory，Teddy，and Alice．‎ Back home，we just have two floors，but there are seven people living on them．And only one bathroom．Not that I’m complaining．Still，ever since my sister Courtney discovered ‎ blow-outs，it’s been pretty frightful at home．‎ But as tall as my aunt and uncle’s house was，it was really narrow—just three windows across．Still，it was a very pretty townhouse，painted gray．The door was a bright，cheerful yellow．There were yellow flower boxes along the base of each window，flower boxes from which bright red—and obviously newly planted，since it was only the middle of April，and not quite warm enough for them．‎ It was nice to know that，even in a sophisticated (世故的) city like New York，people still realized how homey and welcoming a box of flowers could be．The sight of those flowers cheered me up a little．‎ Like maybe Aunt Evelyn and Uncle Ted just forgot I was arriving today，and hadn’t deliberately failed to meet me at the airport because they’d changed their minds about letting me come to stay．‎ Like everything was going to be all right，after all．‎ Yeah．With my luck，probably not．‎ I started up the steps to the front door of 326 East Sixty-Ninth Street，then realized I couldn’t make it with both bags and my violin．Leaving one bag on the sidewalk，I dragged the other up the steps with me．Maybe I took the steps a little too fast，since I nearly tripped and fell flat on my face on the sidewalk．I managed to catch myself at the last moment by grabbing some of the fence the gardeners had put up…‎ ‎17．Why did the author go to New York?‎ A．She intended to go sightseeing there．‎ B．She meant to stay with her aunt’s family．‎ C．She was homeless and adopted by her aunt.‎ D．She wanted to try her luck and find a job there．‎ ‎18．According to the author，some facts account for her bad luck EXCEPT that ________．‎ A．she was given a boy’s name in French B．the cab driver didn’t help her with her bags C．her sister Courtney discovered blow-outs D．nobody had come to meet her at the airport ‎19．The underlined phrase “rub off on” in Paragraph 3 probably means _________.‎ A．have an effect on B．play tricks on C．put pressure on D．throw doubt on ‎20．From the passage，we can know that _________．‎ A．the author left home without informing her mother B．the author arrived in New York in a very warm season C．her aunt’s family lived a much better life than her own D．her aunt and uncle were likely to forget about her arrival ‎ 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项。‎ In a room at Texas Children Cancer Center in Houston, eight-year-old Simran Jatar lay in bed with a drip (点滴) above her to fight her bone cancer. Over her bald head, she wore a pink hat that ‎ matched her clothes. But the third grader’s cheery dressing didn’t mask her pain and weary eyes.‎ Then a visitor showed up. “Do you want to write a song?” asked Anita Kruse, 49, rolling a cart equipped with an electronic keyboard, a microphone and speakers. Simran stared. “Have you ever written a poem?” Anita Kruse continued. “Well, yes,” Simran said.‎ Within minutes, Simran was reading her poem into the microphone“Some bird soaring through the sky,” she said softly. “Imagination in its head…” Anita Kruse added piano music, a few warbling (鸣,唱) birds, and finally the girl’s voice. Thirty minutes later, she presented Simran with a CD of her first recorded song.‎ That was the beginning of Anita Kruse’s project, Purple Songs Can Fly, one that has helped more than 125 young patients write and record songs. As a composer and pianist who had performed at the hospital, Kruse said that the idea of how she could help “came in one flash”.‎ The effect on the kids has been great. One teenage girl, curling (蜷缩) in pain in her wheelchair, stood unaided to dance to a hip-hop song she had written. A 12-year-old boy with Hodgkin’s disease who rarely spoke surprised his doctors with a song he called I Can Make It.‎ ‎“My time with the kids is heartbreaking because of the severity of their illnesses,” says Anita Kruse. “But they also make you happy, when the children are smiling, excited to share their CD with their families.”‎ Simran is now an active sixth grader and cancer-free. From time to time, she and her mother listen to her song, Always Remembering, and they always remember the “really sweet and nice and loving” lady who gave them a shining moment in the dark hour.‎ ‎21．Simran Jatar lay in bed in hospital because ______.‎ A. most of her hair had fallen out B. she was receiving treatment for cancer C. she felt depressed and quit from school D. she was suffering from a pain in her back ‎22．What do we know about Anita Kruse’s project?‎ A. It helps young patients record songs.‎ B. It is supported by singers and patients.‎ C. It aims to replace the medical treatment.‎ D. It offers patients chances to realize their dreams.‎ ‎23．What does the case of a 12-year-old boy suggest?‎ A. Most children are naturally fond of music.‎ B. He was brave enough to put up performance.‎ C. The project has positive effect on young patients.‎ D. Singing is the best way to treat some illnesses.‎ ‎24．What is probably the best title for the passage?‎ A. Purple Songs Can Fly B. Singing Can Improve Health C. A Shining Moment in Life D. A Kind Woman—Anita Kruse 四、完形填空 阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的四个选项（A、B、C、D)中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。‎ My heart beat with that feeling, like blood to my body as my fingers flew across the piano keys.

Some students often go to school without have breakfast. When they are hungry, they prefer eating some snack. Some of them are even particular with food; they only eat what they like and never touch food they don’t like even if they really need it for their health. What’s worse, some students eat or drink too much at a time, which do great harm to their health.‎ As it is known, we are what we eat. It’s important of us to form a healthy eating habit. We should have various healthy diets what generally include proper amounts of fish, meat, vegetables, fruits as well as main food. Only in this way can we built a strong body and enjoy a better life.‎ 五、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。‎ Although many Chinese students say that their knowledge of English grammar is good, most would admit that their spoken English is poor. Whenever I speak to a Chinese student, they always say, “My spoken English is poor.” 46． I would like to suggest that there may be some reasons for their problems with spoken English.‎ First, they fail to find suitable words to express themselves due to a limited vocabulary. 47． However, you can speak with a limited vocabulary, if you choose a positive attitude. Others will follow you as long as you use the words that you know.‎ ‎48． Sometimes they make mistakes when they are speaking because they are shy and nervous. Yet students should remember that in speaking, your aim is fluency. You want to get your message across, talking to someone in English, as quickly and well as you can.Even though sometimes you may use a wrong word or tense, but it doesn’t matter. 49．‎ The third reason is that not enough attention is paid to listening. You have one mouth but two ears! All the hearing is necessary for you to start speaking.‎ Fourth, most Chinese students are reactive rather than proactive(主动的) language learners. Instead of actively seeking out opportunities to improve their spoken English they passively wait for speaking opportunities to come to them and wonder why their English always remains poor. 50．‎ A. Second, they are afraid of making mistakes.‎ B. They may try to avoid making similar mistakes next time.‎ C. However, their spoken English does not have to remain “poor”!‎ D. Obviously the better answer is to expand their vocabulary.‎ E. The second reason lies in the reluctance （勉强）of using what has just been learned.‎ F. If you have this proactive outlook, then you will see English opportunities wherever you go.‎ G. The person you are speaking to will understand you and make allowances for any mistakes he hears.‎ 六、七选五。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。‎ My mother is a diligent and kind woman.

As a teacher,‎ ‎ she works hard.51．Both my brother and I love her dearly as she loves us.‎ My mother has been teaching math at a middle school in my hometown. She goes to work early in the morning and does not return home until late in the afternoon.52．She treats them with patience and teaches them well. For her excellent quality and very good teaching results, she has been elected as a model teacher several times.‎ ‎53．Every day, when she comes back home from work, she sets about doing housework, sweeping the living room and bedrooms or cleaning the furniture, and putting everything in good order. She seems to be busy all the time. As she has been very busy working every day, she looks older than her age. But she looks as cheerful and happy as ever.
