She finally had lost her long battle with cancer. I heard a door open and shut at the back of the church. Quick footsteps hurried along the floor. A young man looked around briefly and then sat next to me. He folded his hands and placed them on his lap. His eyes were filled with tears.

The project is promoted by all environmental protection organization, which has contributed to improving the living environment for wild animals. Recently, the organization has issued an appeal to help it observe environmental changes based on the record of butterflies and protect the environment.‎ In the area, the local people have planted many special flowers with the help of the organization, aiming to see whether these flowers will interest the rare and beautiful butterflies. The project officer Sarah Marshall says,“It will be a suitable habitat for butterflies. They are great ‘indicator species’ as they are easily affected by climate changes so they make a brilliant early-warning system for the ‎ environment.” She also points out that volunteers are needed to record the number or species of butterflies, and based on the change happening to the butterflies, the hidden environmental problems in the area can be found out in time.‎ The organization is seeking volunteers to help monitor butterflies from April through to September. They will walk a fixed route and record the different butterflies they encounter along the way. Each visit should take no more than two hours, and each volunteer is expected to visit once a month to count the wildlife. “Staff will provide back up, so if the weather is poor on the day you are to visit (butterflies don’t like to fly in the rain, wind or if it’s too cloudy) we can have someone else do your job,” Sarah points out.‎ No previous experience is necessary as training and support will be provided, but a keen interest is essential. If you are interested please contact Sarah on (01380) 725670, ext 278, email— sarahm @ wiltshirewildlife. org.‎ ‎28. According to Paragraph 1, what is the purpose of the project?‎ A.

Scholar publishes a series called “I’m Special!” assuring readers that the ability to play with friends and sing songs makes them special indeed. We’ve been told that high self-esteem (自尊) is the key to children’s happiness and success, and we’ve been praising and protecting them ever since. But has the self-esteem movement gone too far? Many experts argue that instead of raising healthy high achievers, maybe we’re raising a generation of narcissists (自我陶醉者). “Our old concepts of self-esteem are old-fashioned, and parents need to send the concept to the trash heap of all things outdated and useless,” says Aaron Cooper, co-author of I Just Want My Kids to be Happy.‎ While experts used to blame low self-esteem for everything from bad grades to criminal behavior, research has shown that inflated (膨胀的) self-esteem is more often the criminal. An article called “Rethinking Self-Esteem” by Roy made a stir when he supposed that criminals and drug abusers actually had higher self-esteem than the general population. Martin and Ervin found that the modern habit of constant praise was turning kids skeptical and unmotivated. And esteemed child development expert T. Barry recently wrote in The New York Times that the phrase “self-esteem” had lost its meaning. ‎ Parents just want their children to have a positive self-image. And while it’s easy to make fun of the extremes of the self-esteem movement, it’s difficult to walk the fine line between acquiring self-respect and self-centeredness. Anyway, make it clear that while you have expectations for their behavior, you love and accept them unconditionally. True self-esteem isn’t about a steady stream of applause; it develops when children know their limits and responsibilities, are given enough opportunities to challenge themselves, and feel secure that they’re loved even when ‎ they fail.‎ ‎32. What’s the purpose of using phrases like “good sharing!” and “great job on the slide!”?‎ ‎ A. To introduce the topic.‎ B. To give the author’s opinion.‎ C. To show some examples of old concepts. ‎ D. To tell readers the key to happiness and success.‎ ‎33. According to the text, which of the following statements is true?‎ ‎ A. In children’s development high self-esteem plays a positive role.‎ B. Children with high esteem are likely to be high achievers.‎ ‎ C. High self-esteem makes kids motivated nowadays.‎ ‎ D. High self-esteem does harm to kids in a way.‎ ‎34. The proper way to develop children’s true self-esteem is to _______.‎ A. give them constant praise unconditionally ‎ B. let them shoulder all their responsibilities ‎ C. offer them support even though they fail ‎ D. have high expectations for their behavior ‎35. What’s the author’s attitude towards high self-esteem?‎ ‎ A. Subjective. B. Objective. C. Positive. D. Indifferent.‎ 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。‎ It may not come as a surprise but the world as a whole is getting richer. 36 Some people have more extra income to spend on luxuries such as holidays, cars, TVs and smartphones. The number of people living in extreme poverty has halved in recent decades.‎ The gap between rich and poor in some countries is narrowing. However, there is still a lot of inequality in different countries. Some people have a lot of money and opportunities while others don’t. A lot of the money in the world is in the hands of very few people. 37 ‎ But some countries are attempting to reduce this inequality and make the poor less poor. 38 One of them is to invest in a higher minimum wage. Having a higher minimum wage can help people eat better and seek a better education. And more people with more money buy more things and factories can produce more. In turn, more jobs are created.‎ ‎ 39 Bill Gates, the founder of Microsoft, earned a lot of money from his company but when he retired, he and his wife Melinda, created a foundation to help the poor. He thinks that rich people should, of course, pay their taxes but he also advises that they should all “look at taking their wealth and being philanthropic (乐善好施的), both in their own country and to help the global poorest.” 40 But if other super-rich people don’t want to experience this fulfillment then, very soon the wealthiest 1% will soon own more money than the rest of the world’s population. ‎ A. But why do we still find poverty?‎ B. We are living in a wealthier world!‎ C. Brazil has been taking some sensible measures.‎ ‎ D. Some wealthy individuals are also doing their bit to help reduce inequality.‎ E. In fact, 48% of global wealth is owned by the richest 1% of the population.‎ F. Bill Gates feels that giving money to help poor people makes him happy and satisfied.‎ G. Many people don’t like paying tax because they don’t receive an immediate benefit from it.‎ 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）‎ 阅读下面的短文，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。‎ This morning after I got the news that my best friend, Sean Misner, who was one of the firefighters, died in an Arizona wildfire in June, I created a Facebook page in his 41 .‎ Sean and I were like brothers.
