The Alcindor decided to send their only child to Power Memorial Academy, a small school on Manhattan’s West Side.‎ ‎ At Power, Alcindor came under the control of Coach Jack Donohue, a strict young man who already gained his fames as one of the best coaches in the city. Donohue brought Alcindor along slowly. As a first-year student, the boy was not able to do much ‎ but wave his long skinny arms and shoot a basket now and then. But by the second year, when he was 15 years old and nearly 7 feet tall, Alcindor was quick and skilful enough to make the high school All-American team and to lead Power to an undefeated season.‎ ‎ From then on he simply got better. Some rival coaches (对方教练) used to take their teams quickly away from the floor before Power warmed up so that their players would not see him any sooner than they had to. Wearing size 16D shoes and sucking a chewing gum, Alcindor would loosen up by starting his leaping lay-ups (擦板球). Then he would casually shoot the ball with either hand, to the delight of the fans.‎ ‎ When reporters and photographers began to follow Alcindor closely, Donohue protected his boy firmly. He simply ordered Lew to talk to no member of the press, and this suited Lew fine. He was not comfortable talking to grown-ups, perhaps because he towered over them. Discouraged photographers began following him in secret as though he were an easily-frightened giraffe. Once after ducking into a subway to escape, Alcindor told a friend that it was all becoming like policemen and robbers. “People want you not for yourself,” Donohue warned him, “But because you’re a basketball player. Don’t forget that.”‎ 21. Many schools offered Alcindor scholarships because ______.‎ A. he was young B. he was hardworking C. he was tall for his age D. he was skillful at playing basketball ‎22. Which of the following best describes Donohue as a young coach?‎ A. Serious, popular and slow B. Tall, skillful and successful C. Kind, powerful and undefeated D. Well-known, strict and experienced ‎23. Why did some rival coaches take their teams away from the floor before Power warmed up?‎ A. Their teams refused to play against Power B. Their teams feared to see Alcindor C. Their teams would lose courage D. Their teams would lose interest ‎24. What does the last paragraph mainly discuss?‎ A. How Donohue protect Alcindor from the press B. How Alcindor disliked meeting reporter C. Why the press followed Alcindor closely D. Why the public wanted Alcindor badly ‎ B In1901, H.G. Wells, an English writer, wrote a book describing a trip to the moon. When the explorers landed on the moon, they discovered that the moon was full of underground cities. They expressed their surprise to the “moon people” they met. In turn, the “moon people” expressed their surprise. “Why,” they asked, “are you traveling to outer space when you don’t even use your inner space?”‎ ‎ H.G. Wells could only imagine travel to the moon. In 1969, human beings really did land on the moon. People today know that there are no underground cities on the moon. However, the question that the “moon people” asked is still an interesting one. A growing number of scientists are seriously thinking about it.‎ ‎ Underground systems are already in place. Many cities have underground car parks. In some cities, such as Tokyo, Seoul and Montreal, there are large underground shopping areas. The “Chunnel”, a tunnel (隧道) connecting England and France, is now complete.‎ ‎ But what about underground cities? Japan’s Taisei Corporation is designing a network of underground systems, called “Alice Cities.” The designers imagine using surface space for public parks and using underground space for flats, offices, shopping, and so on. A solar dome (太阳能穹顶) would cover the whole city.‎ ‎ Supporters of underground development say that building down rather than building up is a good way to use the earth’s space. The surface, they say, can be used for farms, parks, gardens, and wilderness. H.G. Wells’ “moon people” would agree. Would you? ‎ ‎25. The explorers in H.G. Wells’ story were surprised to find that the “moon people” _____.‎ A. knew so much about the earth B. understood their language C. lived in so many underground cities D. were ahead of them in space technology ‎26. What does the underlined word “it” in paragraph 2 refer to?‎ A. Discovering the moon’s inner space. B. Using the earth’s inner space.‎ C. Meeting the “moon people” again. D. Traveling to outer space.‎ ‎27. What sort of underground systems are already here with us?‎ A. Offices, shopping areas, power stations. B. Tunnels, car parks, shopping areas.‎ C. Gardens, car parks, power stations. D. Tunnels, gardens, offices.‎ ‎28. What would be the best title for the text?‎ A. Alice Cities---Cities of the Future. B. Space Travel with H. G. Wells.‎ C. Enjoy Living Underground. D. Building Down, Not up.‎ ‎ C ‎ I THIRST ‎ Each day water related, diseases kill 3,900 of the world’s children.‎ ‎ Across the world, 1.1 billion people have no access to clean drinking water. More than 2.5 billion people lack basic sanitation (卫生设备).‎ ‎ The combination proves deadly. Each year, diseases related to inadequate water and sanitation kill between 2 and 5 million people and cause an estimated 80 percent of all sicknesses in the developing world. Safe drinking water is a precondition for health and the fight against child death rate, inequality between men and women, and poverty.‎ ‎ Consider these fact:‎ a) The average distance that women in Africa and Asia walk to collect water is 6 kilometers.‎ b) Only 58 percent of children in sub-Saharan Africa are drinking safe water, and only 37 percent of children in South Asia have access to even a basic toilet.‎ c) Each year in India alone, 73 million working days are lost to water-borne diseases.‎ ‎ Here are three ways you can help:‎ ‎ 1) Write Congress ‎ Current U.S. foreign aid for drinking water and sanitation budgets only one dollar per year per American citizen. Few members of Congress have ever received a letter ‎ for voters about clean drinking water abroad.‎ ‎ 2) Sponsor a project with a faith—based organization ‎ Many U.S. religious groups already sponsor water and sanitation projects, working with partner organizations abroad. Simply put a single project by a U.S. organization can make safe water a reality for thousands of people.‎ ‎ 3) Support nonprofit water organizations ‎ Numerous U.S.---based nonprofits work skillfully abroad in community---led projects related to drinking water and sanitation. Like the sample of non-profits noted as follows, some organizations are large, other small-scale, some operate worldwide, others are devoted to certain areas in Africa, Asia, or Latin America. Support them generously.‎ ‎29. The three facts presented in the passage are used to state that ______.‎ ‎ A. poverty can result in water-borne diseases ‎ B. people have no access to clean drinking water ‎ C. women’s rights are denied in some developing countries ‎ D. safe drinking water should be an essential concern ‎30. The intended readers of the passage are ______.‎ A. overseas sponsors B. Americans C. Congressmen D. U.S.---based water organizations ‎31. The main purpose of the passage is to call on people to _____.‎ ‎ A. get rid of water-related diseases in developing countries ‎ B. donate money to people short of water through religious groups ‎ C. fight against the worldwide water shortage and sanitation problem ‎ D. take joint action in support of some nonprofit water organizations ‎ D ‎ You are from a middle-class family, and live in a normal-size home without any showy possessions, but you are surrounded by surprising consumption (消费). This contrast is beginning to bother your 6-year-old son. You are worried that he will want to live as they do, and wonder if you should move.‎ ‎ Sometimes big pocket money, joyful birthday parties, special playrooms and ‎ super-big houses tell you that your neighbors probably have more money than you do, and that they’re not as careful as often as you do, talk with them as freely and read to them every night.‎ ‎ Or you may find that some of these parents stay in one wing of their big house while their child plays by himself, way off in a wing of his own. In that unfortunate case, he is basically growing up alone without being looked after properly, but this can happen to a child who lives in normal-size house, too, if he has a TV, a computer and a few video games in his room. Even the most caring parent doesn’t walk in and out of it to see what show her child is watching, what Internet site he has found and if he’s still playing that video game.‎ ‎ Too much uncontrolled screen time may lead to a certain loss of innocence (天真), but mostly this child will lose the sense of unity and satisfaction that comes from being in a family.‎ ‎ A neighborhood should also provide you wit, a sense of unity and satisfaction, and if it doesn’t, you might decide to move. Don’t judge your neighborhood too demandingly, though. There are some things that are right with almost any neighborhood and some things that are wrong with the best of them --- like those super-big houses. The wealth of their owners --- and the way they throw money around --- may make you son feel sorry for himself, unless you help him understand that you and his dad save some of the money, give some to people who don’t have enough and use the rest to pay for whatever the family needs.‎ ‎ Children want---should be provided with --- explanations when their parents don’t give them what they want.‎ ‎32. What is the problem with the worried parents in the text?‎ ‎ A. Her house isn’t as big as her rich neighbor’s ‎ B. Her son is left alone without anyone in charge.‎ ‎ C. She cannot provide her son with a special playroom ‎ D. She worries about the effect of her neighbors on her son.‎ ‎33. In paragraph 2 and 3, the author seems to agree that parents should ______.‎ A. spend more time with their children B. give their children more freedom C. work hard to lead a richer life D. set an example for their children to follow ‎34. By saying “throw money around ”, the author means that rich people _____.‎ A. spend money carelessly B. save money for their children C. help the poor people willingly D. leave money all round the house ‎35. What is the main idea the author aims to express in the text?‎ ‎ A. Children are unfortunate to have poor parents ‎ B. Children should enjoy their comfortable life.‎ ‎ C. Children need proper guidance from their parents.‎ ‎ D. Children feel ashamed of themselves in a rich neighborhood.‎ 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。‎ Many countries have national education programs. Some offer students a very basic education. Often, educational opportunities end with primary school. Parents who want their children to keep going to school have to pay a lot of money. Many students are trained to be skilled workers like carpenters and mechanics. 36 Only the smartest and richest students get to continue learning academic subjects in some countries.‎ Thomas Jefferson had an idea about public education when the United States was a young country. 37 Until then, education was mainly for the rich.‎ Some people thought that school should be for everyone. Horace Mann and Henry Barnard wrote articles for families about education. 38 A free public education was available to all primary grade students by the late 1800s.‎ Benjamin Franklin started secondary schools in 1751. Students were not required to attend. By the mid 1900s, school was a requirement for students until they turned 16. 39 ‎ Public education in the U.S. is mainly controlled by each individual state. Every state has a department of education which makes rules that apply to schools in that state. Local school districts oversee the schools in their area. 40 Many school districts ‎ receive money from local property taxes or new construction fees. State departments of education give districts money based on actual student attendance. The U.S. government provides about 8% of the overall public school budget.‎ A. They do this instead of continuing with academics.‎ B. The public schools developed quickly after the 1800s.‎ C. However, the first public schools did not open until the 1840s.‎ D. About 75% of students now graduate from high school in the U.S.‎ E. The U.S/ government sent teachers to every school and made teaching plans.‎ F. The district hires staff and manages the daily business of the schools.‎ G. They worked to raise support for common schools, the old term for a public school.‎ 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）‎ 阅读下面短文，从每小题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项，并在答题纸上将该项涂黑。（注意：如果所用答题卡没有E、F、G选项，则选E涂A、B; 选F涂A、C;选G涂A、D）‎ From the time each of my children started school, I packed their lunches.
