With Halloween, we have the opportunity to dress up for the night and "be someone else".‎ ‎ Team Maker ‎ If you are going to have games, you may require teams. One way to put together the teams randomly, thus encouraging guests who don't already know each other, is to have them draw pieces from a cauldron (大锅) or witch's hat. Beforehand, write enough words on pieces of paper to have one for every guest. On the pieces of paper write words like: Egyptian tomb,pyramid, magic wand, magic spell, black cat, etc. Everyone draws a piece of paper.‎ ‎ Dress Up the Dead ‎ This game is not for the shy and may result in some small rude performance. For the game, you will need a put-together skeleton. They can be found in the Halloween section of many stores. The skeleton can be of wood or plastic, so long as it can be taken apart easily and can be recombined together. The host "buries" the broken up skeleton under a pile of sawdust, loose dirt or hay in the yard. The first team, while being timed, must discover all the skeleton pieces then run to where there's a hook for hanging the skeleton. They must recombine the skeleton and then, donating parts of their own clothing, dress the skeleton in a shirt and pants.‎ ‎ Murder Mystery ‎ Host a murder mystery as a play. Select players, either by volunteers or by random drawing or even have guests vote. While the players read over their parts, the rest of the guests arrange the room. Set up a row of chairs facing the party audience. This will be the "stage" where the murder mystery players will sit and perform their roles. The host keeps the game (play) moving, usually by playing one of the detective characters.‎ ‎24. How can people form a team?‎ ‎ A. By giving a performance. B. By making a witch's hat.‎ ‎ C.

What is the best title for the text?‎ ‎ A. Games for Halloween Party ‎ B. How to Prepare for the Halloween Party ‎ C. The Reason Why Halloween Party Is Popular ‎ D. What Is the Purpose of Halloween Party?‎ ‎ C ‎ Every night for a year, Neil Simmons quietly went out of his house. He wanted to "talk"to an owl (猫头鹰) settling for the night at the end of his garden. He made owl cries like a real wild owl and was happy to hear the bird "hooting (大声叫嚣)" back to him.‎ ‎ Last year Fred Comes moved in next door. He heard an owl hooting and answered back.For 12 months the neighbors got into the back gardens of their homes, thinking they were talking with nature. Mr Simmons kept a diary of all his talks with his bird friend. They would both ‎ be out again tonight if it wasn't for a chance talk between their wives.‎ ‎ Mr Simmons said, "My wife Kim was telling Fred's wife Wendy about my owl watching and described how I got the birds to hoot back. She said, That's funny-that's just what Fred has been doing. , Then the penny dropped, I felt such a fool when I found out. The trouble is that owl calls aren't exactly the same and it's easy to make a mistake. "‎ ‎ Mr Comes said, "I'm really flattered (过奖). I didn't know I sounded so real. I love nature and I couldn't resist hooting at the owls. I was very excited when they hooted back. I'm sorry that I was fooling my neighbor who was fooling me. "‎ ‎28. After the talk between the wives, the two men would probably .‎ ‎ A. stop observing owls ‎ B. not stay up hooting again ‎ C. not enter the back garden again ‎ D. make no mistakes about wild owl cries ‎29. "Then the penny dropped" most probably means "Then . "‎ ‎ A. I understood B. everybody worried about it ‎ C. I heard the noise D. no money was paid ‎30. Mr Simmons felt like a fool about the whole thing because ‎ A. all his efforts seemed to be meaningless ‎ B. his wife let out his secret by chance ‎ C. owls hooted so differently ‎ D. Fred had been doing the same ‎31. What can be inferred from the text?‎ ‎ A. Fred was always good at pleasing owls.‎ ‎ B. Mr Simmons seldom heard natural owl calls ‎ C. Watching owls is no longer interesting to Fred.‎ ‎ D. The two men never talked about the hooting of the garden owls before.‎ ‎ D ‎ Everyday puzzles ‎ Humans have been, historically speaking, astonishingly knowing nothing. Not until quite recently did we realise that our small blue and green planet is, in fact, round and not flat. Knowledge was the preserve of the educated, much of which was in fact based on superstition and lots of guesswork.‎ ‎ Luckily, the scientists of the 15th and 16th century Renaissance (文艺复兴) dragged mankind-kicking and screaming and sticking to its superstitious ways-out of the Dark Ages. During the 18th century, a period known now as the Enlightenment (启蒙运动) , many political and philosophical revolutionaries threatened the society's system. And then, in the 20th century, civil rights movements shocked the world into recognising gender and racial equality as a right, rather than a privilege.‎ ‎ Great minds will always challenge the current situation. Scientists, philosophers, and explorers then: they all contribute to the progress of mankind. They are constantly searching for answers to the really big questions, such as if there could be life on other planets, or if there is a God.‎ ‎ Common people, however, face our own set of unanswerable everyday mysteries. A set of continuous puzzles life likes to throw at us now and again, if you will. You know what I mean-like why does it only rain when I have forgotten my umbrella? Or why is the traffic al-‎ ways worse when I am already late? Why is Justin Bieber famous? And why do my house keys insist on running away from me? I'm sure I left them in my bag．‎ ‎ If anyone has the answer to any of these unanswerable everyday mysteries, please let me know (particularly the last one)1‎ ‎32. The underlined word "superstition" in the first paragraph probably refers to____.‎ ‎ A．absurd belief B．fear ‎ C．guess D．thought ‎33. Which word can best describe humans according to the author?‎ ‎ A. Knowledgable. B.Productive. C.Pioneering. D.I.ucky.‎ ‎34. When did the existing social system start to be challenged?‎ ‎ A. During the 15th and 16th centuries. B.During the 18th century.‎ ‎ C. In the 20th century. D.Not shown in the article.‎ ‎35. The society was not challenged by____.‎ ‎ A. scientists B.political revolutionaries ‎ C. explorers D.normal folk 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人空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选 项。‎ ‎ Language learning beyond words ‎ Did you know that about 55% of communication is nonverbal? 36 I find that the key to a successful conversation in a foreign language (in any language I should say) is to speak to people not only in their spoken language but also with the body language they know best.‎ ‎ 37 ¨Personal space" is very important to us. In a formal context we would often greet each other with a handshake. Informally, but less frequently, my British friends and I would greet with a hug.38 Here in the south of Italy, and in many different parts of the world, people of both sexes greet with two kisses on the cheek, use a lot of hand gestures and are very tactile.__39__‎ ‎ Having studied Italian at university,I have learnt to successfully communicate in spoken Italian and living in Vibo Valentia I have started picking up the locals' body language. 40 However, what I do know for sure is that keeping my personal space intact would be denying myself the opportunity to appreciate Italian body language and fully immerse myself in the culture.‎ ‎ A.I just figure out how to find the real meaning.‎ ‎ B. But hardly ever would we greet with a kiss on the cheek.‎ ‎ C. In fact, our bodies are actually saying more than our words.‎ ‎ D. In other words, little personal space is left between people when interacting.‎ ‎ E. Britain, along with much of Northern Europe, is classed as a"non-contact" culture.‎ ‎ F. Sometimes, I find myself not knowing what hand gestures to use when expressing myself.‎ ‎ G. If one person can not understand body language, he can not communicate with foreigners smoothly.‎ 第三部分语言知识运用（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，从短文后各题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中，选出可以填人空白处的最佳选项。‎ ‎ Just before Christmas, emergency services were searching the forest and mountains in our area for someone who had placed an emergency call 41 she had got into difficulties.‎ ‎ Some hours later a young woman struggled past my window.
