We thought we would find a motel(汽车旅馆) on the way and had not made a booking. As it was getting late，we started looking for a motel，only to find that all were booked，which worried me sick.‎ Finally，around 9 p．m.，we stopped at a gas station to fill up the gas tank. My husband asked for a phone book and told the woman at the counter that we were trying to find a motel. He tried for 15 minutes. When he was unsuccessful，the woman，Linda，said she and her family lived nearby and would be happy if we spent the night at her home.‎ My husband was stunned by her offer. She called her son to direct us，since she had to hold the fort at the gas station till midnight.‎ When we reached her home，her husband greeted us. He took out two sleeping bags for the children. He invited us to have coffee and chat while we waited for his wife. When she came back，we asked if we could slip away in the morning so as not to disturb them. They said we were now guests and we would have to have breakfast with them.‎ We woke up to a table set for breakfast. They made a mountain of pancakes and bacon. We ate breakfast，and when we were leaving，my husband asked if he could offer some payment.‎ They insisted we were their guests. We left moved by their spirit of hospitality(好客)．We were amazed that they would take in a family of total strangers from a different ‎ country. We kept in touch for many years. Over the years，we've lost touch with them，but have never forgotten their kindness.‎ ‎4．What made the author upset at first?‎ A．They got lost in Canada.‎ B．They ran out of gas.‎ C．They had nowhere to stay.‎ D．They were late for dinner.‎ ‎5．What does the underlined word “stunned” in Paragraph 3 mean?‎ A．Troubled. 　　　　　　 B．Surprised.‎ C．Disappointed.

For example，in Africa，only 40 percent of children are online. In Europe，by contrast，88 percent are online.‎ UNICEF reports that one in three Internet users around the world are children. Even though so many children are online，the organization says little is known about the effect of digital technology on children's wellbeing.‎ More importantly，the report finds that little is being done to protect children from the dangers of the digital world. For example，many children around the world have a ‎ digital footprint before they can actually walk and make real footprints. Parents often post photos of their children and share stories about them. And a child's medical records may be stored in the cloud.‎ As children grow，they may share additional details about themselves or photos and videos of themselves. But making all this personal information public may put a child at risk. Laurence Chandy，Director of Data，Research and Policy for UNICEF，explains that these risks include the misuse of children's private information，access to harmful content and cyberbullying.‎ Besides cyberbullying，Laurence Chandy says children are also at risk from online criminal networks. These criminals target children for some of the worst forms of exploitation and abuse. He says safeguarding children's privacy on the Internet is an issue of major concern.‎ ‎“We really emphasize the importance of putting in place safeguards to prevent children's personal data from falling in the wrong people's hands and protecting their identities. This is an issue which is only going to grow in importance.”‎ Parents，caregivers，teachers and school administrators，businesses and policymakers need to work together to ensure safe access and protect children from the possible harm of a growing digital world.‎ ‎8．What can we probably know from the UNICEF report?‎ A．Around twothirds of the world's youth are often online.‎ B．Digital technology develops faster in developing countries.‎ C．The influence on the health of children online is mentioned.‎ D．The number of youth online is larger than that of adults online.‎ ‎9．What may be found about some children on the Internet?‎ A．Their passwords.‎ B．Their parents' footprints.‎ C．Their childhood stories.‎ D．Their academic records.‎ ‎10．What can we infer from the passage?‎ A．We don't do much to safeguard children online.‎ B．Children like to post their family information online.‎ C．There're chances for children online to break laws.‎ D．Criminals target the parents of children online for money.‎ ‎11．What is the main idea of the passage?‎ A．Cyberbullying causes more dangers to the youth.‎ B．Digital technology can push the world to develop.‎ C．The digital world is mentally good but physically bad.‎ D．Children's information safety in the digital world should cause concern.‎ D Pollution's serious effects on the environment have become more obvious in recent years. Most scientists agree that efforts are necessary to protect our environment from further harm.‎ As we know，the construction industry consumes a large quantity of energy and resources and creates a huge amount of pollution. So green buildings are in great need.‎ The environmental benefits of green buildings include the protection of ecosystems and biodiversity(生物多样性)，improved air and water quality，less waste flowing into streams and the protection of natural resources. Green buildings can also result in lower operating costs because they typically use less energy and fewer materials and improve indoor air quality，improving the health of people who live there.‎ The process of building green houses includes technical and artistic planning with nature protection in mind. Building designs often reflect the surrounding environment and natural resources and use renewable building materials such as bamboo and straw. In addition，recycled resources found locally are used for green buildings，reducing the cost and air pollution associated with transporting materials long distances.‎ Careful site selection is important to minimize(使减少到最低限度) human effects on the surrounding environment. For example，placing a structure in an area that allows it to take advantage of cool breezes(微风) and sunlight can reduce energy use and expenses. More energy and expenses are needed for larger buildings as well，so it is important to build the small ones.‎ Green roofs are another feature of green houses that reduce energy use and costs. These roofs are partially or completely covered with plants，which helps to keep heating ‎ and cooling costs low，prevent water running off and deal with pollutants.‎ Other features of green buildings often include energy and water protection，recycling and waste reduction. In addition，renewable energy sources such as solar power，waterpower and wind power are used for heat and electricity，which greatly reduces costs and decreases the influence on the environment.‎ ‎12．What can we know about green buildings?‎ A．Producing no waste.‎ B．Only using clean energy.‎ C．Being made of new materials.‎ D．Being environmentfriendly.‎ ‎13．What is a green building probably like according to the fifth paragraph?‎ A．Large. 　　　　　　 B．Small. ‎ C．Green. D．Low.‎ ‎14．What is the purpose of using green roofs?‎ A．To fit the environment.‎ B．To keep warm.‎ C．To collect nature water.‎ D．To reduce costs.‎ ‎15．What is the text mainly about?‎ A．Promoting energy efficiency.‎ B．Environmental benefits.‎ C．Green buildings.‎ D．Ecosystems and biodiversity.‎ 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。 ‎ Having success and being able to meet one's goals requires many things：knowledge，a sense of direction，hard work，luck，connections and perhaps a strong belief in yourself. We accomplish our goals one step at a time，doing a little each day.__16__‎ ‎1．Get up an hour early.‎ People who get up early in the morning have a jump on the day.__17__ And some studies show that the willpower and attention are strongest in the morning. In fact，the morning may be the most productive part of your day.‎ ‎2．Drink a glass of water with lemon juice.‎ While your coffee is being prepared or waiting for the water to heat up，drink a glass of water with lemon juice. Why？Health experts say that drinking a combination of lemon juice and water first in the morning jumpstarts the body's metabolism(新陈代谢)．‎ ‎3．Exercise!‎ ‎__18__ Exercising in the morning may not be for everyone. Some people like to exercise after work or at night. Physical fitness experts and trainers often suggest some form of exercise in the morning because the middle of the day is a busy time for most people. By the day's end，you may not have the time or energy to exercise.‎ ‎4．__19__‎ Take time at the end of the day to think back on all the things that have happened.__20__ And spend a little time thinking about tomorrow. It may help you to prepare if you take a few minutes to think about what you need to do the next day.‎ A．Make a plan for tomorrow.‎ B．For starters，they are awake!‎ C．Think about your day at night.‎ D．Some people may disagree with this one.‎ E．So using your day effectively is important.‎ F．Give thanks to wonderful things，if you want.‎ G．Well，don't，as it is a great way to forget about the day ahead.‎ 第三部分 英语知识运用 （共三节，满分65分）‎ 第一节 完形填空（共20小题；每小题1.5分，满分30分）‎ When Heather McHugh，a poet，won a $500，000“genius grant” from the MacArthur Foundation，she didn't buy a luxurious car or fly to Paris.__21__，she put the money in the bank and __22__ writing poems.‎ In 2011，she finally __23__ what to do with it.
