She came to America when she was 12---old enough to remember her language, she achieved scores and grades high enough to be admitted to Duke‎ ‎University. With a degree in computer science, she finally became the manager of a company in New York. My mother could give fluent speeches, say “wolves” correctly. ‎ It was my mother who always stressed the importance of language. From the time I was born, I was read to. I would fall asleep to the sounds of my parents' voices, whether it was my dad’s softly accented, or my mother’s clear English. The flow of language was unbroken, and whether in Chinese or English, the stream of communication flowed through our house.‎ One October morning in sixth grade, after my mother had left to catch the train to the city, I left the house for the bus stop. I was surprised when I saw our car, the door hanging open. As I drew closer, I saw my mother lying on the ground.‎ ‎ In the hospital, it was hard to believe that the lady who lay before me was my mom. My mother could not remember my name. As the leaves changed colors, it became clear that the stroke had created a wall between my mother’s mind and mouth: Her mind was not any less clear, but the words she spoke were not what she meant.‎ ‎ The battle my mother faced taught me the importance of language. Without it,‎ ‎ identity does not exist; relationships cannot be formed; stories cannot be told; directions cannot be given, and knowing anything about anyone is impossible. Without language, communication cannot take place. Without language, one cannot express the beauty of a sunset or the kindness of a stranger. The world would pass us by in silence.‎ ‎21. From the second paragraph, we can know .‎ ‎ A. the author was taught to read since she was born ‎ B. the author's father spoke English poorly ‎ C. the author couldn't fall asleep without being read to ‎ D. the author's parents taught her language by talking a lot ‎22. According to the last two paragraphs, the author’s mom was unable to ________.‎ ‎ A. think clearly B. express herself well ‎ C. speak D. open her mouth ‎23. This passage is mainly about ________.‎ A. a strong mother B. the importance of language C. a family disaster D. the significance of teaching language B ‎ More college graduates in China are seeking for work experience instead of advanced degrees, a survey shows. The practical approach, coupled with a record number of students graduating from college, is expected to strengthen competition in the job market, analysts said.‎ More than 76 percent of university students said they wanted to work after earning their degrees this summer, up from 68. 5 percent in 2012 and 73. 6 percent last year, according to poll results from Zhaopin. com, a major online agency, Zhu Bo.‎ The annual survey also shows that about 20 percent university graduates chose to further education after graduation, while about 3 percent wanted to start their own businesses.‎ Zeng Hao , a 25-year-old media major, managed to land a job in a publishing company in Zhongshan, Guangdong province, before he received his master's degree from the University‎ of ‎Macau in June. " Work experience really matters in the publishing industry" he said.‎ Wei Guihong , a program administrator at Nanjing‎ ‎University, said about 60 percent of the school's graduates entered the labor market every year. “More and more students majoring in a foreign language choose to go abroad to continue their studies to improve their language skills," she said continuously, "That's perhaps a bright future.”‎ Liu Junsheng , a researcher at the Labor and Wage Institute of the Ministry of Human Resources and Social Security, believes that economic conditions play a vital role in shaping college graduates' choices .“There were fewer job opportunities in the market. ” he said. "Although academic degrees still matter, more and more employers value job seekers' work experience." he said.‎ The Zhaopin. com survey shows that each of the graduates sent resumes(履历) on average to about 28 potential employers and received five interview opportunities.‎ ‎24. We can infer from the first three paragraphs that____‎ A. the number of graduates from college is likely to decline gradually B. the employment situation is still relatively optimistic C. the majority of university graduates are ready for further education D. those who want to start their own businesses are fewest ‎25. From the text, we know that the real expert on employment is____‎ A. Zhu Bo B . Zeng Hao C. Liu Junsheng D. Wei Guihong ‎26. What is Wei Guihong's attitudes towards her students' going abroad for their studies? ____ .‎ A. Pessimistic. B. Supportive C. Critical D. Negative ‎27. What would be the best title for the text?‎ A . Graduates pick work instead of taking advanced degrees.‎ B. Graduates take advanced degrees instead of picking work C .Few graduates can get their jobs they seek for D. Few Graduates receive the interview opportunities ‎ C The spread of Western eating habits around the world is bad for human health and ‎ for the environment. Those findings come from a new report in the journal Nature.‎ ‎ There are ways to solve this diet-health-environment problem. But they will require a change in eating habits, And what we eat can be a product of culture, personal taste, price and ease.‎ ‎ David Tilman is a professor of ecology at the University‎ of ‎Minnesota. In the study, he examined information from 100 countries to identify what people ate and how diet affected health. Mr Tilman noted a movement beginning in the 1960s. He found that as nations industrialized, population increased and earning rose, more people began to adopt what has been called the Western diet.‎ The Western diet is high in refined, or processed, sugar, fat, oil and meat. By eating these foods, people began to get fatter and sicker. “The excess, let us say, in the 15 richest nations of the world, right now is on the order of about 400 or 500 extra calories a day that are eaten beyond what people need, and that lead people to gain weight.”‎ David Tilman says overweight people are at greater risk for non-infectious diseases like diabetes, heart disease and some cancers. “Unfortunately when people become industrialized, if they adopt this Western diet, they are going to have these same health impacts, and in some cases if you are Asian, you have them more severely.”‎ And a diet bad for human beings, it seems, is also bad for the environment, As the world’s population grows, experts say, more forests and tropical areas will become farmlands for crops or grasslands for grazing cattle. These areas will be needed to meet the increasing demand for food.‎ ‎“We are likely to have more greenhouse gas released in the future from agriculture because of this dietary shift than all the greenhouse gas that right now comes out of all forms of transportation. ”‎ Mr Tilman calls the link between diet, the environment and human health “a dilemma”. He says one possible solution is leaving the Western diet behind.‎ ‎28. Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the report?‎ ‎ A. Different cultures may cause different eating habits,‎ ‎ B. Population increase is likely to lead some people to accept the Western diet.‎ ‎ C. Western foods will probably make more people overweight.‎ ‎ D. The Western diet is unhealthy because it is high in vitamins and proteins.‎ ‎29. What can we learn from the report?‎ A. The Western diet does less harm to the health of Asians.‎ ‎ B. More greenhouse gas has been given off from agriculture.‎ ‎ C. Western eating habits are responsible for some diseases like cancer.‎ ‎ D. Nearly all people in developed countries consume more calories than needed.‎ ‎30. The underlined word “dilemma” in the last paragraph means .‎ A. a relation to be maintained B. an opinion causing an argument ‎ C. a decision to be made D. a problem offering a difficult choice ‎31. What does this report mainly tell us?‎ A. What people eat does influence their health.‎ ‎ B. Our change in diet will lead to global climate warming.‎ ‎ C. The Western diet is bad for environment as well as for human beings.‎ ‎ D. Industrialization considerably shortens the lifespan of the world people.‎ D In recent years many countries have been faced with the problem of how to make their workers more productive. Some experts claim the answer is to make jobs more varied. But do more varied jobs lead to greater productivity? There is evidence to suggest that while variety certainly makes the worker's life more enjoyable, it doesn't actually make him work harder. As far as increasing productivity is concerned, then, variety is not an important factor.‎ Other experts feel that giving the worker freedom to do his job in his own way is important. The problem is that this kind of freedom cannot easily be given in the modern factory with its complicated machinery. Thus while freedom of choice may be important, there is usually very little that can be done to create it.‎ Another important consideration is how much each worker contributes to the product he is making. In most factories the worker sees only one small part of the product. Some car factories are now experimenting with having many small production lines .so that each worker contributes more to the production of the cars on his line. It ‎ would seem that not only is degree of worker contribution an important factor, but it is also one we can do something about.‎ To what extent does more money lead to great productivity? The workers themselves certainly think this is important. But perhaps they want more money only because the work they do is so boring. Money just lets them enjoy their spare time more. A similar argument may explain demands for shorter working hours. Perhaps if we succeed in making their jobs more interesting, they will neither want more money, nor will shorter working hours be so important to them.‎ ‎32. According to the author, what advantage do varied jobs bring?‎ A. They increase productivity enormously. ‎ B. They reduce boredom among workers.‎ C. They bring out the best in workers. ‎ ‎ D. They relieve workers' difficulties.‎ ‎33. What can we clearly see from the passage?‎ A. It’s practical to allow more freedom in a modern factory.‎ ‎ B. It's necessary to have a large number of workers.‎ ‎ C. It's important to raise workers’ sense of contribution.‎ D. It’s difficult to have more production lines.‎ ‎34. The passage seems to suggest that ________.‎ A. more money leads to demands for shorter working hours ‎ B. more money does not automatically create higher productivity ‎ C. workers like more money better than more interesting jobs ‎ D. workers expect to have both more money and more interesting jobs ‎35. What does the passage mainly discuss?‎ A. How to enrich workers'1ife.‎ B. How to make workers more productive.‎ ‎ C. How to shorten working hours. ‎ D. How to decrease dullness in a factory.‎ 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。‎ Today we eat on the go, at our desks and even in front of computers. We eat takeout, delivered and packaged meals, 36 ‎ ‎“Over the past three decades, people have started eating out more than ever before and purchasing more prepared foods at the grocery store, which tend to contain more fat, salt and sugar than their home-made foods,” noted US healthy living website SparkPeople.‎ ‎ 37 It encourages us to value the time we spend preparing, sharing and consuming food, as a recent USA Today article put it. It all started in 1986 with the efforts of Slow Food’s founding father, Italian activist Carlo Petrini, who wanted to bring back food varieties and flavors that had gone dark in the face of industrialization. 38 Now, his idea is almost the mainstream.‎ Starting at the table, the movement promotes an unhurried way of life founded on the idea that everyone has a right to cooking pleasure, and that everyone must also take responsibility to “protect the heritage (遗产) of food, tradition and culture that make this celebration of the senses possible”, wrote The Phnom Penh Post.‎ ‎“ 39 It means turning down the speed at which we eat and increasing the amount of time we spend dining together with other people,” Althea Zanecosky, spokeswoman for the American Dietetic Association, told The Huffington Post. “ 40 Dinner table conversations keep families together,” noted the Belgian non-profit organization Greenfudge.‎ A. It is a way to bring back the social togetherness of yesterday.‎ B. It seems that we have adapted our foods to our fast-paced lives.‎ C. So, the Slow Food Movement has occurred against this fast-food trend.‎ D. Slow Food doesn’t necessarily mean food that takes a long time to cook.‎ E. It is based on the idea that we should spend as much time as possible on cooking.‎ F. It’s not only the food itself but also the time we spend dining together that matters.‎ G. At that time, he asked people to follow a more sustainable (可持续的) living model.‎ 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）‎ In the United States there was an unusual story telling of the daughter of a mechanic(技工).One day while walking along the bank of a lake, the girl___41__to see 20 eggs laid by a wild goose.
