B The first time our fifth grader bought a salad for school lunch, she proudly told me the news as soon as she walked in the kitchen door. I didn't share her delight. “Honey, just so you know, salad isn't a meal. It's a side,” I said. “Vegetables won't keep you full.” “But a salad's healthy, right?” she asked. Of course the objective answer is yes. But my answer was more complicated. I couldn't celebrate her otherwise healthy choice because I was worried she had begun to model my dieting and restrictive eating habits she saw as a younger child — habits that included lots of salad eating (and little else) and finally led to my anorexia nearly two years ago. Was this monkey see, monkey do? Even though our daughters — who are now 10, 8 and 6 — are old enough to make their own regular food choices, what my husband and I have modeled for them will make a difference. I learned something about restrictive eating from watching my own father, who often struggled with his weight. Of course, I don't blame him for my disorder — he never intended for his choices to be a weight-loss book for me, though sadly, they were. So knowing what I know now, it would be stupid, if not irresponsible for me to think that just because I never told our daughters to restrict or to spend hours each day exercising that they wouldn't have understood what my “healthy” lifestyle really meant. To be clear, there are countless medical reasons why some parents chose restrictive diets, but when restriction or a diet becomes a way of life that starts to affect relationships, that's not healthy. I knew I was wrong to shame the salad our daughter bought for lunch, which is why I reconsidered my response and told her that salad for lunch was, indeed, a healthy choice, and that it should include cheese, meat or nuts, which would keep her brain focused for the rest of her school day. She smiled at my answer. “Well, I also had cheese, eggs and chicken on my salad.” 24. How did the author feel on hearing about her daughter's lunch? A. Relaxed. B. Disappointed. C. Delighted. D. Uneasy. 25. What do we know about the author's father? A. He was often on a diet. B. He exercised a lot to keep fit. C. He once suffered from a disorder. D. He was a good model for the author. 26. What was worrying the author? A. Her kids ate too much fat every day. B. Her kids spent too little time exercising. C. Her kids were influenced by her lifestyle. D. Her kids knew nothing about food choices. 27. What kind of lunch did the author's daughter have that day? A. High-fat. B. Balanced. C. Weight-loss. D. Vegetarian. C Counting whales has never been easy — boats, planes, even submarines can travel limited distances, and catching the site of these giant animals is hit-or-miss. Now, researchers at the British Antarctic Survey (BAS) in Cambridge have confirmed that they can count at least four different species using satellite images taken 600 kilometers above the ocean. Previously, satellite cameras were of no use in whale spotting. Their resolution, which maxed out at 46 centimeters, made most whales look like undistinguishable blobs. But the new privately owned WorldView-3 satellite, which has a resolution of 31 centimeters, enabled BAS graduate student Hannah Cubaynes to count 200 whales across 4,230 square kilometers of ocean. She and her colleagues reported last week in Marine Mammal Science. Cubaynes started with seven images from four areas across the world known to specially host southern right whales, fin whales, humpback whales, or gray whales at certain times of year. “Oh my God,” was her first reaction, because the whales were so easy to see. Nearly half of her identifications were definitive, and the whales looked different enough from space that she expects to be able to tell species apart should they occur together in following images. Next, researchers will use the images to develop a computer program that can pick out probable whales, the identification of which will be confirmed by experts. Cubaynes says the system will aid conservation efforts by better revealing where whales go and how many there are. But to do so, she first has to figure out how to account for wind, sun glare, and whales that are at angles to the surface or moving and thus not fully visible. And like aerial and ship surveys, satellite surveys will still be affected by bad weather. 28. How did Cubaynes count whales? A. By boat. B. By plane. C. By satellite. D. By submarine. 29. What shocked Cubaynes in Paragraph 3? A. The variety of whales. B. The weight of whales. C. The number of whales. D. The images of whales. 30. Why will researchers develop a computer program? A. To account for wind. B. To support ship surveys. C. To help whale conservation. D. To avoid the weather's effect. 31. What's the text mainly about? A. A new way to count whales. B. How satellite images are used. C. What we can do to protect whales. D. The process of an oceanic survey. D People love the “comeback kid”, the “down and out guy”, and any variety of defeated people whom we've seen fail, then manage to dust off their bootstraps（独自所做的努力）and take on life again. Everyone should get this chance in life, and they should get it over and over and over again. Everyone, that is, except our teenagers, right? At least that is how parents, teachers, college admission officers, coaches, and others who spend time with adolescents have led all of us to believe. We have all bought the great lie that there is not only zero room for today's teenagers to fail academically, but any form of failure is a great embarrassment to everyone involved. And I do mean everyone. Ever notice how quick parents are to share college acceptance letters, scholarships, SAT scores, and pretty much all the perfect resumes of their high schoolers for everyone to see on social media? Surely it makes moms and dads extremely proud. We all want to take credit for our teenager's great accomplishments, and while that is all well and good, it also means that when failure happens, we scatter like sheep when a wolf arrives, because failure on their part means failure on our part. Adolescent brains do not have the bandwidth to process that failure is temporary, and that high school is but a small spot on their life map. Unfortunately, while we may talk that talk, our actions do not bolster it. Anyone who has been through the competitive college application and scholarship process knows this all too well, because there is no room for any form of failure. But this is wrong. Tell your kids that failure doesn't define them. Tell them it's normal, natural, and expected. Tell them failure creates comeback stories, and the opportunity to rise even higher and better than before. And finally, tell them you don't worry that they will fail; you worry that they won't. 32. What is the problem of today's teenagers? A. They cannot make their choices. B. They're not allowed to fail. C. They are easily defeated. D. They face various lies. 33. What does the underlined word “bolster” in Paragraph 4 mean? A. Affect. B. Improve. C. Remove. D. Support. 34. What does the author want to tell us in the last paragraph? A. Success is very important. B. Hard work means success. C. Failure just leads to success. D. Success needs family's support. 35. What's the best title for the text? A. Parents should allow themselves to fail B. Teens are wrong about their college life C. Parents are teens' lifelong supporters D. Teens should know failing is OK 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。 If you are interested in studying at an American university, you have probably heard about the Test of English as a Foreign Language. 36 .

Yours, Li Hua 听力原文 Text 1 W: Well, it looks like the sun is finally coming out. I think I’ll go swimming. M: You’d better hurry. I hear they are calling for (预示) thunderstorms this afternoon. Text 2 W: What kind of things do you recycle, Aaron? M: Well, almost everything—glass, paper, plastic… How about you? W: I only recycle glass. Text 3 M: Hi! Love to see you again! W: Me, too. I need your advice. My hair is unhealthy. It’s also fallen down. M: You must use conditioner to maintain your hair healthy. OK, now I’ll wash your hair and put on some conditioner. Text 4 W: Kevin, let’s go to the beach! M: A beach party again? I’m tired of it. W: No. There is community work. We need to help clean up the beach. Text 5 W: Pepi’s Pizza. How can I help you? M: Hi. I’d like to order a pizza please. W: Okay. I’ll have to transfer your call to our take-out department. One moment please. Text 6 W: Have you got any plans for the weekend, Tom? M: Yes. I’m going for a hike around Qinghai Lake. W: Oh, do you go hiking often? M: I go as much as I can. I love hiking, because I can really get in touch with nature. W: It would be nice to get out of the city. Do you want some company? M: Sure. But it will be a long hike. 30 miles in 3 days. Have you been hiking before? W: Yeah, I go a lot too. I saw a bear and a lion on my last hike. M: Wow, you must have been pretty far away from the city. W: Yeah, my friend and I hiked to a very wild park in the national forest. Text 7 W: Paul, you are moving to New York? M: Yeah. W: Why? M: Because I want to change the working environment. Maybe I can find a more suitable job there. W: But you have worked here for 19 years. Do you have any friends there? M: No, but I can make friends there. W: Are you afraid of moving to such a big city, especially as you have lived in a small village for 39 years from the day you were born? M: Not really. I’ll enjoy myself. W: Will you come back someday? M: Of course. I plan to come back here when I retire. Text 8 M: Do you feel like going to the cinema? W: Oh, yes. What kind of films do you like? M: Well, I like all sorts of films, but my favorite sorts are those like Star Wars. You know, the fantasy, special effect ones where you can escape into another world. I also like mystery films. Do you like mystery films? W: Yes, but I don’t like horror films because they really give me nightmares. M: I don’t like horror films either. They’re sort of stupid and unbelievable. I do like crime films, you know, where you can follow the detective and try to guess who the murderer is. W: What about a comedy or musical? M: I’m not interested. W: What about ringing up the ABC and find out what’s on? Then we can decide. M: OK. That’s definitely the best thing we ought to do because I haven’t got an evening paper. Text 9 M: Hi. Could you give me a hand with this report? W: Sure. I’d be happy to give you some advice. M: Thanks. Would you mind taking a look at the layout（设计）? Do you think it’s appropriate? I want it to be formal, but not boring to look at. W: It looks good to me. I would suggest that you put the client’s logo and our logo on each page. The bosses seem to like that. M: That’s an excellent suggestion. I can easily do it on the computer. W: Why don’t you use a different font(字体) for the headings? They’ll be more distinct. M: I’ll take that suggestion too. How about the content? W: I think you’ve included all the essential things. You might want to make the conclusion a little longer. Restate your reasons clearly. M: Is it OK to include the pictures? W: Definitely! I would include one or two on each page if possible. Remember you should make the report as eye-catching as possible. M: Thanks for those ideas. I’ll get to work on them right away. Text 10 M: I’ve lost my pet bird. If anyone sees my bird flying around the neighborhood, please call me at 347-8399. He’s about ten inches high with bright green feathers. His tail has some blue feathers in it, and his head is mostly red. He’s a very nice bird, and his name is Pauly. I’m very sad that he flew away. I had cut the ends of his wing feathers so he couldn’t fly, but they grew back（重新长出） quickly. I’m afraid that he won’t be able to find enough to eat, because he’s not a wild bird. Also, winter is coming soon. He might die when the weather gets colder. Please help me find him! Keep your eyes and ears open! You might not see him, but you will definitely hear his loud call. If you think you might have heard him, please call me right away. Tell me where you were when you heard him, and I’ll go there. I will call his name. If he’s anywhere nearby, he will definitely fly back to me. I trained him since he was a very young bird, and he’s my best friend!
