If you can’t even understand the idea of living without electricity, running water, or a modern toilet, then the charm of this place will probably not appeal to you. But for anyone trying to escape the pressure and busy life of the big city or take a break from the Internet and other modern devices, this place is a paradise(乐园). Located 1 km south of Skarsjon Beach, in the middle of a pristine（原始的） Swedish forest, Kolarbyn Eco-Lodge(山庄) consists of 12 wooden huts with nothing but two sheepskin-covered wooden beds, and a wood stove that uses wood cut by the guests themselves.‎ Self-catering breakfast, lunch and dinner consist of items like spaghetti（通心粉）, tomato sauce, bread, fruit and eggs that tourists have to cook themselves over an outside fire; there is no shower, only a nearby spring and as for toilet, visitors are encouraged to go behind a tree, or visit one of the two sheds（棚子）.‎ Adding to the charm of this place is the long coal-making tradition of Kolarbyn. Locals have been building these huts from wood and mud for over 400 years, and a few of them came up with the idea of recreating a few of them in the woods as an eco-lodge to keep tradition alive in the area.‎ ‎“People visit Kolarbyn lodges because they want to experience the nature and to test sleeping in the historical huts. They want to get away from the normal life,” the owner Andreas Ahlsen said. “The huts themselves are relatively small, as if they are too big, it will destroy the nature ‎ experience.”‎ ‎1. Which of the following can best describe the Kolarbyn Eco-Lodge Hotel?‎ A. Modern and luxurious B. Perfect and unique C. Cheap and appealing D. Simple and environmental-friendly ‎2. What can we infer about the life in the hotel?‎ A. Living there is a hard experience for everyone B. The visit to the hotel means a challenge to many people C. It’s convenient though there is no modern equipment D. It’s kind of like living in paradise for the aged ‎3. What does the underlined word “them” refer to in Paragraph 4?‎ A. Old traditions B. Local people ‎ C. Wooden huts D. Creative ideas ‎ ‎4. Why do people want to visit the Kolarbyn Eco-Lodge Hotel?‎ A. To escape modern life B. To have a good sleep C. To compare rural and city life D. To experience poverty of locals ‎ B Easter Island’s large and mysterious stone statues（雕像） have made it world famous. These statues, whose likenesses look like humans with huge stone cylinders(柱状物) balancing on their heads like hats, have tourists coming from all over the world. The tourists come to see these works of ancient art carved by the early inhabitants of the island. They come to see the mystery that has puzzled historians for decades.‎ Easter Island is located in a remote part of the South Pacific Ocean about 2,300 miles west of Chile. Easter Island covers just 45 square miles and its Polynesian name is Rapa Nui.[]‎ On Easter Sunday 1722, a Dutch explorer named Jacob Roggeveen was the first European to see Easter Island. The early Polynesians carved the statues within the holes of the volcano using only stone tools. Then they moved these huge statues to various destinations throughout the island. These 600 statues range in height from 10 to 40 feet. Some of them weigh as much as 50 tons. How could the early Polynesians lift hundreds of heavy statues out of the volcano? How did they move them across the island to their various locations? All of these questions, as well as many others, remain ‎ unanswered.‎ The early islanders probably worshiped(崇拜) these eyeless giants until sometime around 1670. In 1680, a war broke out between two groups of islanders. The victors of the war and ancestors of the present inhabitants, broke down many of the statues. In most cases, they broke the necks of the statues.‎ Now 15 of the statues on Easter Island have been repaired to their original positions on their stone platforms. Even today, using modern tools and machinery, putting up such large statues and balancing cylinders on top of their heads presents a challenging task.‎ ‎5.What do we know about Easter Island?‎ A. It is a big island of Chile. B. It is located in North Pacific Ocean C. It was named after a Dutch explorer D. Its early inhabitants were Polynesians ‎6. Scientists are still uncertain about ______‎ A. why people built the statues B. where people made the statues C. how people transported the statues D. how many statues there are on the island ‎7.What happened in 1680?‎ A. Many statues were damaged B. Another 15 statues were put up C. People began to worship the statues D. The islanders started a war against outsiders ‎8. The purpose of the text is to ______‎ A. entertain B. advertise C. inform D. persuade C What is the most common cause for people in the UK to ask for leave due to illness? The answer is not the common cold or flu, but back pain. Back pain affects one in three British adults, costs the country over 5 billion pounds every year and is very difficult to treat. But now Britain’s National Health Service (NHS) will be offering a new solution: acupuncture(针灸). The ancient Chinese needle treatment has been around in the UK for many years, but this is the first time it has been officially approved by the NHS.‎ Traditionally, doctors in the UK have advised back pain sufferers to stay active, do stretching exercises and take painkillers when necessary. In more serious cases some people are given X-ray treatment or injections with medicines. However, there is evidence that acupuncture may be more ‎ effective than expensive X-rays or injections, so patients who have been suffering for over six weeks should be given a choice. As an alternative to acupuncture, patients will be able to choose either a course of spinal manipulation (脊柱推拿), or a series of special exercise sessions. In the UK, acupuncture is regarded as an aiding treatment, which means medical procedure hasn’t experienced serious experiments by which scientists prove some treatments work. While many experts have welcomed the policy to make acupuncture available on the NHS, some are still skeptical(怀疑的) about its effectiveness.‎ Research from the US earlier this month found that similar acupuncture using toothpicks (牙签) which do not stick into the skin could be as good as using real needles. So while some are yet to be convinced, back pain sufferers will be hoping that acupuncture helps get them feeling healthy again.‎ ‎9. According to the passage, which is the best way to treat back pain?‎ A. To stay active. B. To be acupunctured.‎ C. To do stretching exercises. D. To take X-ray treatment or injections.‎ ‎10. Why are some people still doubtful about the effectiveness of acupuncture?‎ A. Because they have other choices.‎ B. Because acupuncture is just an aiding treatment.‎ C. Because using toothpicks is as good as using real needles.‎ D. Because acupuncture hasn’t been tested by scientists strictly.‎ ‎11. What does the author want to prove in the last paragraph?‎ A. Acupuncture can be an effective treatment for back pain.‎ B. Toothpicks as a useful tool for acupuncture is widely accepted by people in the UK.‎ C. Needles are no better than toothpicks.‎ D. Toothpicks will take place of needles in the future.‎ ‎12. What does the passage mainly talk about?‎ A. The magic needles. B. Acupuncture in the UK.‎ C. The ways to treat back pain. D. The reasons for people to ask for leave.‎ ‎ D Researchers at the University of Kansas say that people can accurately judge 90 percent of a stranger's personality simply by looking at the person's shoes. "Shoes convey a thin but useful piece of information about their wearers," the authors wrote in the new study published in the Journal of ‎ Research in Personality. "Shoes serve a practical purpose, and also serve as nonverbal clues with symbolic messages. People tend to pay attention to the shoes they and others wear."‎ ‎ Medical Daily notes that the number of detailed personality traits (特质) detected（发现） in the study include a person's general age, income, political tendency, and other personality traits(特征), including someone's emotional stability. Lead researcher OmriGillath said the judgments were based on the style, cost, color and condition of someone's shoes. In the study, 63 University of Kansas students looked at pictures showing 208 different pairs of shoes worn by the study's participants. Participants in the study were photographed in their most commonly worn shoes, and then filled out a personality questionnaire.‎ ‎ So, what do your shoes say about your personality? Some of the results were expected: People with higher incomes most commonly wore expensive shoes, and flashier footwear was typically worn by outgoing people. However, some of the more specific results are interesting. For example, “practical and functional” shoes were generally worn by more “friendly” people, while ankle boots were more closely connected with “aggressive” personalities. The strangest of all may be that those who wore “uncomfortable looking” shoes tend to have “calm” personalities.‎ ‎ And if you have several pairs of new shoes or take exceptional care of them, you may suffer from “attachment anxiety,” spending too much time worrying about what others think of your appearance. There was even a political calculation in the mix with wearing “shabbier and less expensive” shoes.‎ ‎ The researchers noted that some people will choose shoe styles to mask their actual personality traits, but researchers pointed out that volunteers were also likely to be unaware that their footwear choices were revealing deep insights into their personalities.‎ ‎13. By looking at a person’s shoes, it’s possible for people to___________.‎ A. know the wearer thoroughly ‎ B. estimate the wearer’s character C. have exact clues about the wearer’s social status D. judge the wearer’s educational background ‎14. Which statement is NOT true according to the passage?‎ A. In the study, people’s personality traits were detected.‎ B. In the study, participants wore 208 different shoes. ‎ C. In the study, 63 students were asked to fill out questionnaire about personality.‎ D. In the study, judgments were made according to various characteristics of people’s shoes.‎ ‎15. Taking exceptional care of new shoes shows that ____________.‎ A. the owners care much about others’ opinions on their appearance ‎ B. the owners are in a relaxed state C. the owners are particular about their appearance ‎ D. the owners have too many shoes to choose from 第二节（共5小题，每小题1分，满分5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。(注意：E涂AB： F 涂AC: G 涂AD )‎ Recently some American scientists have given a useful piece of advice to people in industrialized nations. They say people should eat more of the same kind of food eaten by humans living more than 10,000 years ago.____16____‎ The scientists say that the human life has changed greatly. Our bodies have not been able to deal with these changes in lifestyle and this had led to new kinds of sicknesses._17__ So they are called “diseases of civilization”．Many cancers and diseases of the blood system are examples of such diseases.‎ Scientists noted that people in both the Old Stone Age and the New Stone Age enjoyed very little alcohol or tobacco，probably none.__18__ However，a change in food is one of the main differences between life in ancient times and that of today.‎ Stone Age people hunted wild animals for their meat，which had much less fat than domestic ones. They ate a lot of fresh wild vegetables and fruits. They did not have milk or any other dairy products，and they made very little use of grains.__19__ We eat six times more salt than our ancestors. We eat more sugar. We eat twice as much fat but only one third as much protein and much less vitamin C.‎ ‎__20__ But scientists say that we would be much healthier if we eat much the same way as our ancestors did，cutting the amount of fatty，salty and sweet food.‎ A．These new sicknesses were not known in ancient times.‎ B．People today probably do not want to live the way people thousands of years ago did.‎ C．Ancient people also lived in large groups.‎ D．But today，we eat a lot of these food.‎ E．Ancient people also got a great deal of physical exercise.‎ F．In that case，they would live much healthier.‎ G．People today probably live the same life as people thousands of years ago.‎ 第二部分英语知识运用（共两节，满分40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，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。‎ When I opened the box at my 12th birthday party, I couldn’t believe my eyes.

In order to make themselves look pretty，they try many different ways of losing weight. Some go on a diet，some take exercise，some take medicine，and others even turn to operations for help. As a result，a lot of products have been created for losing weight. Provided in the markets are special medicine，tea and equipment，which are used in different ways and work differently，but some have side effects.‎ In my opinion，it’s understandable that women seek beauty，but they should do it in a proper way. Eating a balanced diet and taking more exercise is the way that I most favor，as the other ways are likely to do harm to people’s health more or less.‎
