Green collars say no when work is life and life is work. They choose to get out of the fast lane, and explore new ways of living “green”.‎ Living green doesn’t mean someone is working as an environmentalist, biologist or scientist. Instead, it is more of a lifestyle choice. A typical green collar is well-educated like a white collar but physically tough like a blue collar, likely born in the 70s or 80s and living in one of China’s big cities, with a monthly income well above 5, 000 yuan.‎ The life of a green collar may go something like this: turn off the mobile phone after work, eat only healthy food rich in vitamins, go out on hikes every weekend, and like to help the underprivileged.‎ Green collars even have their own club. In Beijing, the Green Collar Club is for people who share a “be happy, healthy and helpful” spirit. The club often holds charity parties and uses the donations for environmental protection and poverty relief projects in China.‎ ‎“They are successful in their careers, but do not miss the pleasures in life. They have a lot of money, but do not fall slave to it,” said Zuo Shiguang, one of the founding members of the ‎ club.‎ ‎21. What is the text mainly about?‎ A. The appearance of gold collar workers.‎ B. The increasing awareness of environmental protection.‎ C. The lifestyle of green collars. ‎ D. New trends in big cities of China.‎ ‎22. Green collars are living green because .‎ A. they devoted themselves to environmental protection B. they spend a lot of time in the open air C. they refuse to live an unhealthy life ‎ D. they have a large income ‎23. Which of the following best describes Zuo Shiguang’s attitude towards green collars?‎ A. Scolding. B. Appreciative. C. Doubtful. D. Neutral.‎ B Mom noticed that something was wrong when I started getting so thirsty. I’d have a lot to drink before bed, which was unusual for me. One time, I opened a big container of apple juice and kept refilling my glass. Before I knew it, I’d drunk the entire container! My mom called my doctor. I then had a few blood tests, and the results were certain — I had diabetes (糖尿病), which meant that the amount of sugar in my blood was very high. That can be dangerous, so I had to learn how to control my blood sugar level. ‎ My eating habits had to change in a big way. With diabetes, I can’t eat a lot of sugar or carbohydrates (碳水化合物). I have to figure out exactly how much sugar I plan to eat, and then I get an injection of insulin (胰岛素) before the meal to help my body process the food. Also, I test my blood sugar level often. I’m always trying to keep my blood sugar at a healthy level. The level can drop when I exercise, but that doesn’t keep me out of gym class or off the basketball court — I just keep some juice boxes around to boost my blood sugar if I need to. ‎ It’s a lot of work — and not a lot of fun — to keep track of everything, but I’ve gotten used to my new habits. I was a little scared at first because I wasn’t sure how my life would change. Once I knew what I needed to do, though, it wasn’t a big deal. My life is different now from what it was before, but it has become completely regular to me. ‎ ‎24. The first paragraph is mainly about _____.‎ A. who found the author had diabetes ‎ B. the author’s life before having diabetes C. how the author was found to have diabetes D. the author’s eating habits before having diabetes ‎25. What did the author do after knowing she had diabetes?‎ A. She stopped playing basketball in the gym. ‎ B. She controlled her blood-sugar level strictly.‎ C. She stopped eating food with natural sugar.‎ D. She tested her blood-sugar level before every meal.‎ ‎26. What does the underlined word “boost” in Paragraph 2 mean?‎ A. Increase. B. Control. C. Absorb. D. Test. ‎ ‎27. What’s the author’s attitude toward her having diabetes now?‎ A. Worried. B. Frightened. C. Pessimistic. D. Positive.‎ C ‎ ‎ From musician and philanthropist (慈善家) Peter Buffett comes a warm, wise, and inspirational book that asks, Which will you choose: the path with least difficulty or the path of potentially greatest satisfaction?‎ ‎ You may think that with a last name like his, Buffett has enjoyed a life of endless advantage. But the son of billionaire Warren Buffett says that the only real thing handed down from his father was: Build your own path in life. It is a principle that has allowed him to follow his own interests, establish his own identity, and gain his own successes. ‎ ‎ In Life Is What You Make It, Buffett describes the strong set of values given to him by his trusting and broadminded mother, his hardworking and talented father, and the many life teachers he has met along the way. ‎ ‎ Today’s society, Buffett believes, has changed a lot. People begin to enjoy what they do, with a wealth ethic (伦理), honor the payoff instead of the process. Yet, by focusing less on reward, we can open doors of opportunity and work hard toward a greater sense of satisfaction.‎ ‎ In clear and brief terms, Buffett explains a great truth: Life cannot be predicted and doesn’t have a second chance, neither fair nor unfair. We see that our journey in life seldom follows a straight line but is often met with false starts, difficulties, and mistakes. How we ‎ push through and don’t give up at these challenging moments is where we begin to create the life of our dreams — from discovering our careers to giving back to others.‎ ‎ Personal and instructive, Life Is What You Make It is about challenging your condition, taking control of your own life and living it to the fullest.‎ ‎28. What does Peter Buffett value most about his mother?‎ A. Intelligence. B. Independence. C. Hard work. D. Broadmindedness.‎ ‎29. Which proverb can best express the main idea of the fifth paragraph?‎ A. Nobody is perfect. B. Life is full of ups and downs.‎ C. Where there is a will, there is a way. D. Failure is the mother of success.‎ ‎30. Which of the following is NOT true about Peter Buffett?‎ A. He works on music. B. His father is very rich.‎ C. He wrote Life Is What You Make It. D. He thinks society has changed for the better.‎ ‎31. What is the main purpose of the text?‎ A. To introduce a book. B. To describe a writer.‎ C. To talk about what life is about. D. To discuss how to live a meaningful life.‎ D Free energy is everywhere around us. There are many ways to make and collect energy from various sources like sun, wind and water. People also realize that everyday stuff can be a source of energy too. For example, riding a bike, running or just walking, etc. We simply have to change our way of thinking if we want to change the world.‎ So comes the idea of solar roadways. Are they the road of future? Why use roads just for driving and collecting tolls (过路费)? Why don’t we use them for collecting energy?‎ The US Department of Transportation recently awarded $100,000 to Solar Roadways to build the first ever Solar Road Panel. So how do these future roads work?‎ The Solar Road Panels will contain embedded (嵌入的) LEDs which “paint” the road lines from beneath to provide safer nighttime driving as well as to give drivers instant instructions such as detour (绕行) ahead. The road will be able to sense wildlife on the road and can warn drivers to “slow down”. There will also be embedded heating elements in the surface to prevent snow and ice buildup, providing safer winter driving.‎ Replacing asphalt (沥青) roads and parking lots with Solar Roadway Panels will be a major step toward stopping climate change. Fully electric vehicles will be able to recharge ‎ along the roadway and in parking lots, finally making electric cars practical for long trips.‎ We just can’t wait to see more of these roads all over the world in the near future.‎ ‎32. The first paragraph serves as a(n) _____.‎ A. argument B. comment C. explanation D. background ‎ ‎33. When some animals are on the solar road, what will the road do?‎ A. Guide them to a safer place. B. Remind drivers to drive slowly.‎ C. Frighten them away from the road. D. Advise drivers to choose another way. ‎ ‎34. From the text, we can know that the Solar Road Panels can _____.‎ A. provide heat for drivers in winter B. guide drivers who get lost on the highway C. melt snow and ice soon in winter D. help drivers see the road clearly in the sun ‎35. What is the text mainly about?‎ A. Functions of the road in the future. B. Development of solar energy.‎ C. Free energy on the road. D. Solar road of the future. ‎ 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。‎ Everyone can benefit from better communication. 36 Of course, we know that isn’t true, but this shouldn’t stop you improving your communication skills. Here are a few tips to help you become a better communicator.‎ ‎ 37 ‎ Verbal(口头的) language is only one part of the communication — body language is another. If you ever wanted to know how to tell if someone is lying, body language is the answer. Your body language tells other people what you aren’t verbally saying, such as if you are anxious, confident, confused, angry or any other type of emotion or state of mind. If you become great at reading body language, it will help you become a better communicator.‎ Listen to others.‎ Before you ever begin to speak, take a minute to see if anyone else has something to say. _____38 ___ Listening to others has many benefits, such as allowing you to learn new things or get information that you may later need.‎ Think before you speak.‎ Your parents probably told you this as a child, but many people still do not take a moment ‎ to think about the words they are about to say. 39 There is a time and place for all words and tones of voice.‎ ‎ 40 You will have to practice your communication skills before you can ever become an excellent communicator.‎ A. This is not an overnight thing.‎ B. Singing a song for them is good.‎ C. Become fluent in body language.‎ D. Don’t try to make the conversation go your way.‎ E. You should decide what you want to get in a conversation before you choose your words.‎ F. If you are too anxious, you can’t look for the right body language to use in communication.‎ G. In fact, if everybody were excellent communicators, the world would be a much better place.‎ 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，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。‎ I was living in South Korea a few years back 41 I had to leave the country and return again, due to visa（签证）restrictions.
