Some of the wallets contained one of four photographs--a baby, a cute little dog, a family and a portrait of an elderly couple. Other wallets contained a card suggesting the owner had recently made a charity donation, while a control sample (对照组) contained nothing at all. ‎ Professor Richard Wiseman, a psychologist who was in charge of the experiment, said 42 percent of the wallets were posted back in total. Those containing the picture of the infant or the baby were most likely to bring about an honest reaction from the finder, with 88 percent being returned, followed by those containing pictures of the little dog at 53 percent. Of those featuring the family snapshot, 48 percent were sent to the return address and only 28 percent of those with the picture of the elderly couple. Wallets containing the charity cards and the control sample were least likely to be returned, with rates of 20 and 15 percent. ‎ Prof Wiseman, of the university of Hertfordshire, said, “The baby kicked off a caring feeling in people, which is not surprising from an evolutionary perspective (角度). We were amazed by the high percentage of wallets that came back.” ‎ The wallets were planted at random about a quarter of a mile apart. Snapshots were inserted into a clear plastic window inside the wallets, none of which contained money. ‎ ‎21. What’s the main idea of the passage? ‎ A. Researchers left 240 wallets on the streets of Edinburgh last year. ‎ B. Professor Richard Wiseman carried out an experiment with 240 wallets. ‎ C. Lost wallets containing a picture of a baby are more likely to be returned. ‎ D. Wallets which contain nothing are mostly returned to their owners. ‎ ‎22.

It can be inferred that __________.‎ A. people who returned the wallets are interested in psychology. ‎ B. dogs are more respected in western countries than the elderly. ‎ C. Professor Wiseman had expected the result before the experiment. ‎ D. the result of the experiment can be different if wallets contain money. ‎ B Water skiing is a sport with many social, economic and health benefits to society. It is unique because it is a sport where able and disabled persons, and people as young as five years and as old as eighty years of age can participate alongside each other. It is a sport that involves more than one person, and is a wonderful family activity that gathers members together for a day of fun at a favorite waterway. ‎ Anyone who has put on water skis can show its health benefits---it is a sport that demands and develops strength, smart and lasting ability. The sport includes several training practice, such as winding course, tricks, jump, ski racing and so on.

This is a legal requirement in many states. The boat driver cannot watch the skier and operate the boat safely at the same time. You’d better wear a Coast Guard approved Personal Flotation Device (PFD) designed for water skiing. Ski belts are NOT recommended. Your approved PFD will help keep you safe. It couldn’t ‎ be more dangerous to ski in rough water. High waves will prevent your boat from keeping a steady course and speed. 1t is dangerous and illegal to ski after dark. Any boat traveling at night for a skier is traveling too fast to move safely. ‎ Any water-ski under the influence of alcohol or drugs is not permitted. Such activity is extremely dangerous because of the harm to your judgment and ability to respond. A recent study conducted with expert skiers who were purposely drunk indicated that even their ability to ski is reduced. One more thing, use hand signals between the skiers. Agree before you start what each signal means so that there is no confusion at emergency moment. ‎ ‎25. Who can’t accompany you to go water-skiing? ‎ A. Your parents aged over eighty. B.

The structure can be dragged to a suitable location and placed on supports on the sea bed. The “Water Discus” will be made up of an underwater disc containing 22 bedrooms with sea views, connected by lift and stairs to a disc above the surface containing other hotel facilities.‎ Project manager Robert Bursiewicz says: “Nowadays it’s possible to build submarines (潜艇) which go deeper than ‎500m below the sea surface, so building an underwater hotel is not a problem. ‎ In fact, they don’t plan to have the hotel very deep. Water acts like a filter (过滤器) for sunlight, and below ‎15m most colors, apart from blue, are washed out. And we all want to see colorful marine life, don’t we? ‎ But this isn’t the first hotel to offer underwater views from the bedrooms. The two-bedroom Jules’ Under-sea Lodge, off the coast of Florida, has been taking in guests ‎10m beneath the surface since 1986. ‎ The company that operates the hotel also runs a diving course for beginners to help get guests down and into the hotel. It is accessible only through an opening at the bottom.‎ And you’ll find all the usual facilities in the room, according to Teresa McKirma, Jules’s chef financial officer. It has a television, air conditioning and Wi-Fi. But for the staff, simple things like cleaning and making beds can be challenging, since the lodge is in sea water. ‎ ‎“It actually takes quite a lot of work to get anything down there,” she says, “We have to put everything in waterproof boxes and attach weights to them to counter their buoyancy ‎ ‎(浮力). ‎ The hotel has suitably sized waterproof boxes so that pizzas can be delivered by divers to guests who order them for their evening meal. And after a meal, if you can’t sleep because of the excitement of the experience, you don’t have to count sheep. You’ll fall asleep quicker if you count fish. ‎ ‎32. According to the passage, the new hotel will________. ‎ A. contain three discs ‎ B. come into use soon ‎ C. have a movable structure ‎ D. be built ‎500m beneath the surface ‎ ‎33. Why won’t they plan to have the hotel very deep in the water? ‎ A. They have financial problems. ‎ B. They lack advanced technology. ‎ C. They refuse to enjoy colorful life. ‎ D. Most colors are washed out below ‎15m. ‎ ‎34. According to Teresa McKirma, ________.‎ A. entertainment is impossible in the hotel ‎ B. the staff’s work is difficult to finish ‎ C. it’s easy to get things down there ‎ D. the built hotel is badly equipped ‎ ‎35. What can be inferred from the last paragraph? ‎ A. Passengers can’t enjoy their meals. ‎ B. Passengers will feel fed up with the views. ‎ C Passengers have no choice but to count fish. ‎ D.

The following are a few tips to help bridge the generation gap. ‎ First, the easiest to say but the hardest to do is to honor your parents. Focus on your good memories of your parents. Remember something they said or they did that you appreciated or something they did that impressed you. 37 ‎ Second, we need to negotiate rather than argue. This tip can help any relationship, which will be beneficial to you under any circumstances. However, don’t approach your parents when you are angry. 38 ‎ Third, trying to reach a compromise is also advisable. Of course, your parents might refuse to compromise on an issue. 39 Showing respect will keep your relationship strong. Keep in mind that you can’t quarrel with your parents. If so, you will make the things worse. ‎ Lastly, tell your parents what you care about and why. The reason why you do so is that your parents will have a better understanding of you. If you can relate to each other, many disagreements won’t be made. ‎ ‎40 See to it that you can get on well with them, and it will make you a better and happier person. It will be worth the effort you have made. ‎ A. Your parents will forget what they said or did. ‎ B. That will make your parents find the differences. ‎ C. You might disagree with your parents over something simple. ‎ D. Approach your parents about an issue with this memory in mind. ‎ E. If you don’t think you can speak to them calmly, try writing a letter.‎ F. All in all, a good relationship with your parents is of great importance. ‎ G. In this situation, it is especially important to show love and respect for them. ‎ 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，掌握其大意，然后从各题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项。‎ My grandmother was always encouraging me to set goals and work hard to achieve them. She would tell me not to be a follower and not to set 41 on what I could achieve. She 42 believed that there were no limits and that you could 43 whatever you wanted. I would never forget the following story that she once told me. ‎ A farmer won first 44 at the country fair for his huge radish (小萝卜) that was the exact shape and 45 of a milk bottle. ‎ Many were 46 as to how the farmer was able to grow this radish that was the exact shape of a milk bottle. ‎ ‎ 47 one gentleman went up to the farmer and asked the question. The farmer replied, “It was 48 . I got the seed growing and then I put it into the milk bottle. It had 49 else to go.” ‎ You can use this story as an analogy (比喻) to life--our lives are 50 by the kind of surroundings we place ourselves in, the people that we allow to 51 us, and the goals we give ourselves. ‎ If we only 52 and take no action, then we get no further. But if we 53 , set a goal and take action, then our life takes a 54 shape. ‎ Goals and actions can help us accomplish more in a year than what some people will accomplish in a lifetime. To prove this 55 , read the biographies of 56 people and you will see that goals and actions 57 played a big role in their success. ‎ Remember the 58 of Mary Kay Ash, who said, “Don’t limit yourself. Many people limit themselves to what they think they can do. You can go 59 your mind lets you. Whatever you believe, remember, you can achieve.” ‎ In summary, don’t put yourself in a bottle; in other words, move out of what is 60 and secure if you want to move forward. ‎ ‎41.

He soon know that the right engine of the plane 63 (break) down. ‎ As other passengers began to cry and pray, John put on his oxygen mask and thought over his fate. “I understood that I 64 be going to meet God,” John recalled. He thought, “If this is my time, this is my time.” ‎ ‎ 65 (face) with his coming death, he could have closed his eyes deep in thought. Instead, John, a sports photographer, responded clearly in a 2014 manner: He reached 66 his smartphone, 67 (point) it at the smoky air and pressed the record button. He even calmly recorded his smiling face. ‎ ‎ 68 (fortunate), the plane landed safely soon after, 69 (make) the mechanical failure a false alarm. The pulse-quickening, you-are-there videos recorded by John and 70 passengers helped make the story to national news.

Actually as individuals, we have the power to improve the environment. We can start from small things such as recycling rejected materials if possible; moreover, walking rather than driving cars benefits us a 1ot, so do it if we can. Above all, tying to be educators is surely practical. We can influence people around us by telling them the danger we are facing. ‎ Believe me, individuals’ contribution does count!
