It stops things for a while,” says Joe.‎ Stephen says recovery was a slow six-month process and changed the course of the band completely.‎ ‎“The accident has changed my attitude towards life. It has given me more motivation towards the band. I want to make it a bit more now. I know what I want and I want to get it.”‎ Tony says the crowd reactions to Stephen playing rhythm guitar in his wheelchair are always amazing.‎ ‎“It’s not a big issue but people seem to remember and they say it's amazing he gets up and does it and doesn’t just give up,” he says.‎ ‎“We don’t look at him as having a disability at all. He just sits down while he’s playing, and that’s all.”‎ Stephen said the first time he went on stage as a paraplegic (截瘫患者), he felt out of place, but quickly got back into the rhythm.‎ ‎“We just make sure we don’t trip over him and that he doesn’t roll off the stage and we’re fine,” says Tony.‎ Their music speaks for itself. They won the first rock gig (特约演奏) they ever entered and it was also only the third gig they had played together as a new band.‎ ‎4. What do we know about the rock band Dionysus?‎ A.

I’ve held other jobs, but for the last thirteen years, I was one of only about 4,000 professional Boy Scouts in the United States. I was good at what I was doing. Promotions (晋升) came. Pay raises came. I moved to four different areas of the country to lead districts. I was serving in a district when the Boy Scouts were challenged on their standards for membership. It became difficult for me to create new units and to market activities in my area after that, so I was asked to resign. After thirteen years and many Chief Scout Executive Winners Circle and Boy's Life magazine awards, I was fifty years old and unemployed. I had loved being a professional Boy Scout; I had won many of the awards because I simply challenged myself to be better each year.‎ For some time, I found that the hardest thing I had to do was get out of bed in the morning. I was out of a job while my wife continued working in a skilled job in a bakery. We celebrated every time we got the bills paid. We couldn’t eat out any more; I became lazy because I had no purpose.‎ Finally my parents told me about someone they knew who was a signing agent as a mobile notary (公证人). I took the training and if I had one signing every ten days, I was thrilled. I kept looking and thinking about what else to do. I had been a professional magician, and so I went back into training. With the help of a friend who allowed me to make several small payments for the tuition (学费), I attended the Magic 2 Motivate program to learn how to become a motivational speaker with a magic base. I remember the long discussion with my wife as to whether we could afford my flight to Orlando at the time. The class was inspirational, and now I promote my magic everywhere. I think I have found where I belong.‎ ‎8. Which can be used to describe the author’s performance in his scouting job?‎ A. He was lazy. B. He was careless.‎ C. He was adaptable. D. He was hard-working.‎ ‎9. What can be inferred from the underlined sentence in Paragraph 2?‎ A. The author enjoyed celebrations.‎ B. Paying bills was not easy for them.‎ C. They were getting more bills than before.‎ D. The author’s wife was leading a happy life.‎ ‎10. What do we know about the author’s family?‎ A. They were protective to him.‎ B. They were supportive to him.‎ C. They were quite proud of him.‎ D. They were disappointed with him.‎ ‎11. How did the author find the Magic 2 Motivate program?‎ A. It was a bit hard.‎ B. It helped him relax.‎ C. It gave him a huge lift.‎ D. It was not worth the money.‎ D Biorobotics is a field within robotic science that is based on the movements of living things. The most famous biorobots look and move a lot like humans. However, there are several robots that have been made to mimic (模仿) animals. While many companies develop such robots as toys, some are used for practical purposes.‎ One example of a biorobot is a flying robot that is based on the movements of bees. The robot, named “Carlton” , was developed by the German Research Center for Artificial Intelligence. Built to be both light and powerful, it can hover like a bee in tight spaces and also change direction without losing speed. This robot’s abilities make it very useful for military (军事的) and police search and rescue missions (任务). For example, Carlton can hide behind a tall wall, rise up to quickly look at what is on the other side, and then hide again. It can also send video images (图像) of what it sees to soldiers in a safe location far away.‎ ‎“Modsnake” is a robot that was modeled on snakes. This robot was developed by the Carnegie Mellon University Biorobotics Lab. It is made to move like a snake, so it can pass through narrow spaces, move over all sorts of obstacles (障碍物), climb poles, and even swim. The way Modsnake moves makes it useful for a variety of tasks such as checking for survivors in fallen buildings, finding damaged areas inside of pipes and cleaning up oil spills in lakes and rivers.‎ A third robot, based on cockroaches, also has several uses. “Sprawl” was designed by a research team at Stanford University to take videos and recover small objects. Like many six-legged robots, Sprawl was made to move like an insect. However, Sprawl is uncommonly fast and strong for its size, just like a real cockroach. These characteristics make it particularly useful for military situations in which an enemy might try to disable it. It is very difficult to shoot because it moves quickly and is relatively small. Even if an enemy shoots Sprawl, it can usually keep functioning.‎ ‎12. What is the text mainly about?‎ A. Biorobots’ military uses.‎ B. Biorobots based on animals.‎ C. Biorobots’ flying abilities.‎ D. Biorobots that work like humans.‎ ‎13. What’s the characteristic of Carlton?‎ A. Unbreakable. B. Changeable. C.Weighty. D. Swift.‎ ‎14. What does the author suggest about Modsnake?‎ A. It has six legs.‎ B. It can be dangerous.‎ C. It is multi-functional.‎ D. It moves like an insect.‎ ‎15. Which of the following is true about Sprawl?‎ A. It is small but very tough.‎ B. It is smaller than a cockroach.‎ C. It was developed by a German research team.‎ D. It was originally built to destroy small objects.‎ 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。‎ Traveling independently for the first time can be stressful if you don’t plan your trip carefully. In Cuba, my friends and I really learned the value of planning ahead and being responsible tourists. So, before you set off, take a look at my list of useful tips:‎ Plan who to go with.‎ Think about your travel buddies (朋友) carefully. Traveling with just one person has its advantages and disadvantages, but traveling in a group isn’t easy either. In a group, everyone wants something different. Be patient and understanding, and try to find a compromise (妥协). 16 And remember: if you take everyone’s views into account before you go, you won’t have so many arguments!‎ ‎ 17 ‎ Before you go, find out about the country’s culture and look up some basic words and useful phrases in the local language. 18 If you say just a few words in their language, the local people will really appreciate it, and everyone will feel more comfortable.‎ Be responsible.‎ It’s really important to be a responsible tourist and to try to support the local economy. 19 We stayed in private homes in different parts of Cuba. Our hosts were really kind-hearted and their generosity was amazing. If you stay with a family, you’ll find out much more about your hosts’ culture and way of life. 20 Seeing the sights and learning about the culture with local Cubans was truly exciting. If we had stayed in a hotel, we wouldn’t have had these experiences.‎ A. Do your homework.‎ B. Think about the environment.‎ C. Don’t be embarrassed by your accent.‎ D. I decided to spend the summer in Cuba with some friends.‎ E. Be adaptable, so that you can deal with unexpected changes.‎ F. For example, why not stay with a local family instead of in a big hotel?‎ G. They will probably take you to places the guidebooks don’t tell you about.‎ 第二部分 语言知识运用 （共两节，满分75分）‎ 第一节 （共40小题；每小题1.5分，满分60分）‎ 阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。‎ A When I became CEO of a hospital, I feared one thing greatly — public speaking.

He said that, as a CEO, the ‎ most 32 aspect of my job was public speaking! The days of having to prove my 33 in other areas were over; I had obviously done that to get where I was. Communication skills were all I 34 now. And he was 35. I realized I needed to make the time to properly 36 and practice for each speaking situation.‎ So, I’ve 37 that. I now schedule time into my workday calendar to write and practice my 38. I spend a long time perfecting the presentation before I ever stand in front of a group to 39 it.
