Any time of the year is good to visit，but keep in mind that the rainy season lasts from November to March and the hurricane season lasts from June to November.‎ Hawaii Volcanoes National Park What makes this park unique is the opportunity to see an active volcano，Kilauea，which has constantly erupted since 1983. However，another volcano，Mauna Loa，has been dormant since 1983.Within the park，there is a visitor center，the Jagger 21 / 21‎ ‎ Museum，Volcano House which contains a gift shop，a restaurant and a hotel, and the Volcano Art Center Gallery. The entrance fee is $10 per car.‎ Pu'uhonua O Honaunau National Historic Park Visitors can take a selfguided tour here. There is also a reconstructed temple as well as examples of traditional Hawaiian canoes(独木舟)．The park is open from 6 am to 8 pm during the week and until 11 pm on weekends and holidays. The entrance fee for the park is $5.‎ The Parker Ranch(牧场)‎ Here visitors can learn about the history of one of the largest cattle ranches in the US. Visit the Parker Ranch Museum or tour the two historic homes that are open to the public. Tickets to the carriage tour are $15 for adults and $12 for children under 12.‎ Sea Turtles at Punalu'u Beach Park Punalu'u Beach Park is famous for its beautiful black sand beach.

Swim，relax and enjoy island life at its best，all for free.‎ ‎21．Where can visitors have lunch when visiting Hawaii Volcanoes National Park?‎ A．In the visitor center.‎ 21 / 21‎ B．In the Jagger Museum.‎ C．In Volcano House.‎ D．In the Volcano Art Center Gallery.‎ ‎22．If you don't want to spend money during your trip, you can visit .‎ A．Punalu'u Beach Park.‎ B．The Parker Ranch Museum.‎ C．Hawaii Volcanoes National Park.‎ D．Pu'uhonua O Honaunau National Historic Park.‎ ‎23.

To show people the importance of visiting Hawaii.‎ D. To introduce some camping activities in Hawaii.‎ B These days, young people in some Englishspeaking countries are speaking a strange language, especially when communicating on social media.‎ Look at these words chosen by The Washington Post：“David Bowie dying is totes tradge” and “When Cookie hugged Jamal it made me totes emosh”. Or this sentence: “BAE, let me know if you stay in tonight.”‎ What on earth do they mean? Well, “totes” is a short form of “totally”. Similarly, “tradge” means “tragic” and 21 / 21‎ ‎ “emosh” means “emotional”. It seems that, for millennials (千禧一代), typing in this form is not only timesaving but fashionable.‎ As you can see, many millennial slangs (俚语) are formed by socalled “totesing”—the systematic abbreviation (缩写) of words. The trend might have started with “totally” becoming “totes”， but it now has spread to many other English words.‎ The origins of other millennial slangs are more complex than “totesing”．“Bae”， for example, has been widely used by AfricanAmericans for years. It can be an expression of closeness with one's romantic partner or, like “sweetheart”， for someone without romantic connection. After pop singer Pharrell used the word in his work, “bae” became mainstream.‎ Some people might think millennial slangs lower the value of the English language, but Melbourne University linguist (语言学家) Rosey Billington doesn't agree. She says when people are able to use a language in a creative way, they show that they know the language rules well enough to use words differently. Two other linguists, Lauren Spradlin and Taylor Jones, share the same view. The two analysed hundreds of examples of totesspeak and discovered totesing has complex roots.‎ It isn't simply an adult version of baby talk, nor a clever way to minimize your word count. Rather, it is a highly organized system that relies on a speaker's mastery of English 21 / 21‎ ‎ pronunciation. It is about sounds, follows sound system of English and has strict rules.‎ ‎24．Why do young people like usingeslangs?‎ A．They are timeconsuming.‎ B．They are in fashion.‎ C．They are complex.‎ D．They are in order.‎ ‎25．What's the author's purpose of mentioning “Bae” in Paragraph 5?‎ A．To support that totesing is no baby talk.‎ B．To analyse the usage of millennial slangs.‎ C．To inform people how it became mainstream.‎ D．To explain the complex origins of millennial slangs.‎ ‎26．Which statement may Rosey Billington agree with?‎ A．Totesing is a loosely organized system.‎ B．Millennial slangs lower the value of English.‎ C．It's simply a clever way to reduce the word count.‎ D．Totesspeak requires a good command of English.‎ ‎27．What's the best title of the passage?‎ A．Eslangs Catch on Among Youth B．Linguists Disapprove of Totesing C．Millennial Slangs Take the Lead D．English Has Greatly Changed C 21 / 21‎ Reuel Tolkien (1892－1973), the British linguist, writer. He created a fantasy novel “The Lord of the Rings” the wellknown trilogy (三部曲)．‎ Tolkien was born in Bloemfontein, South Africa. When he was 4 years old, his father died and his family moved back to England. Tolkien graduated from Oxford University when he was 23 years old, and participated in the First World War. During the war, Tolkien suffered from “trench fever” and stayed in the hospital until the end of World War Ⅰ. It was the days in the hospital that he began his writing career first.‎ After the war, Tolkien became a linguist. He was an editor of the “New English Dictionary” of 1918－1920. However, he was more researching into AngloSaxon language which makes his extensive contacts in Britain and the Nordic spread all over the folklore and mythology.‎ In 1937, Tolkien completed his first work “The Hobbit”. Although this was a fairy tale, it was also suitable for adults to read. Because of good sales, the publisher Allen & Unwin convinced Tolkien to write its sequel. This encouraged Tolkien to complete his most famous works the epic (史诗) trilogy “The Lord of the Rings”. The works of writing went on for almost a year with the support from his good friend Lewis.‎ At the beginning “The Lord of the Rings” was similar works for children, but after that writing style quickly became serious and dark. “The Lord of the Rings” was one of the most 21 / 21‎ ‎ popular literary works in the 20th century in terms of sales and readers' evaluation. Tolkien's influence is important, for the success of “The Lord of the Rings” makes the fantasy novels of this literature genre (体裁) develop rapidly.‎ ‎28．When did Tolkien take part in World War Ⅰ？‎ A．1896. B．1915. C．1916. D．1937.‎ ‎29．Which of the following statements is TRUE?‎ A．Tolkien's father died of “trench fever”. ‎ B．Tolkien wrote the “New English Dictionary” himself.‎ C．“The Lord of the Rings” was finished about half a year. ‎ D．Tolkien began his writing career in the hospital.‎ ‎30．What is Tolkien's “The Lord of the Rings” considered to be?‎ A．The first works of Tolkien.‎ B．Always serious and dark.‎ C．Beneficial to the development of the fantasy novels.‎ D．The most popular literary works in the 20th century.‎ ‎31．The word “evaluation” in the last paragraph is close to the meaning of “________”．‎ 21 / 21‎ A．opinion B．value C．interest D．hobby D Children's handwriting has deteriorated(退化) to such an extent in recent years that pupils are being subjected to online abuse，a leading expert has warned. It has also been claimed that a large number of children as old as 12 are unable to write their own names，such is the extent of the handwriting crisis(危机)．‎ Some teachers say that the rise of digital technology with children using keyboards and smart phones is having a major impact on their handwriting skills and that poor teaching of handwriting is impacting on inspection results in some schools.‎ Melanie Harwood，who provides writing coaching in schools，said during a roundtable discussion that children were taking pictures of their peers' coursework and then reproducing it on social sites like Twitter or Facebook. Other classmates would then laugh at those with poor writing on social media platforms，the Times Educational Supplement reported.‎ Ms Harwood said，“Some children are being bullied(欺负) because of their handwriting. Their friends are taking pictures of their writing tweeting it and making comments on the writing：‘They're not very bright，because their handwriting isn't very good. Good God. It's terrible. You can't have that.’”‎ 21 / 21‎ Still，some people took to defending bad handwriting on Twitter. A user wrote，“Bad handwriting？Keep this in mind：more intelligent people tend to think faster，and as a result their handwriting is more sloppy.”‎ But Ms Harwood said handwriting was not seen as a priority(优先权) in the curriculum. She explained，“I'm seeing children as old as 12，who can't write their own names，pass the system.” She was speaking at a roundtable discussion in London over whether handwriting lessons are a thing of the past in the digital age.‎ However，teachers have said poor teaching of handwriting is having a negative effect on Ofsted inspections following the education watchdog's recent addition of handwriting as part of the aspects it assesses to determine a school's rating.‎ ‎32．Which of the following probably causes children to have poor handwriting?‎ A．The rise of social media.‎ B．Improper curriculums at school.‎ C．Poor writing coaching at school.‎ D．The use of computers and phones.‎ ‎33．Why do children post their peers' poor handwriting on social sites?‎ A．To make fun of their peers.‎ B．To show the problems with school teaching.‎ C．To call people's attention to kids' handwriting.‎ D．To ask their peers to improve their handwriting.‎ ‎34．Those who defend their bad handwriting believe ________. ‎ 21 / 21‎ A．handwriting skills are out of date B．poor handwriting indicates low intelligence C．intelligent people tend to have poor handwriting D．handwriting has nothing to do with one's intelligence ‎35．We can conclude from the text that ________. ‎ A．teachers are unwilling to teach handwriting B．kids with poor handwriting usually fail exams C．handwriting is still not required at school nowadays D．schools didn't pay enough attention to kids' handwriting 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。‎ May the first is an important date in the college admission process in the United States. This is the last day for high school seniors to accept or reject offers of admission in the fall. But according to a recent report, there is a great change. Acceptance rates at the top colleges this year were lower than ever. 36 ‎ 21 / 21‎ These days, college applicants are applying to more colleges because online and common applications make the process easier. 37 On the other hand, deciding students for top colleges to accept can be difficult because it takes much time. Students may not like being put on waiting lists. Also, common colleges work more to get the students they accept to accept them. Some colleges hold visiting days that offer a chance to attend classes and stay overnight. Some universities send gifts. 38 ‎ For many families, the most important thing colleges can do is show them the money, especially this year; the weak economy makes parents nervous. 39 The recent problems that spread from the housing market to credit markets have even affected student's loans. So lately, top schools have to spare lots of money to increase their financial aid for students. ‎ ‎ 40 The Education Department expects the number of high school graduates to start to go down. This will happen as the last of the children of the baby boom generation finish high school. The number is not expected to start rising again until 2015. ‎ A．Besides, top colleges are facing changes in the population. ‎ B．What contributes to it?‎ C．But a mistake can be costly if it happens. ‎ D．But top colleges ignore them. ‎ E．They have international students who know English.‎ F．It can mean several acceptances to choose from.‎ G．They cannot afford college as planned. ‎ 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）‎ 21 / 21‎ 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，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。‎ My chance came at last.
