When I reached my car, I noticed that a man came and stood beside me. It seemed that he had no car, no home and no job. I expected that he would ask me for money, but he did not do that. He only said, “Your car is very nice.”‎ After several moments of silence I replied，“Thanks.” Then the inner voice told me, “Ask him if he needs help.” After hesitating for a while, I asked him if he needed any help. His response was out of my expectations. I would never forget those simple three words that I heard from him, “Don’t we all?”‎ It was a true discovery to me. I needed help. Although I had money and a place to sleep, I recognized that I needed help, too. Then I opened my wallet and gave him enough money to get a meal and some shelter for a day.‎ Suddenly I understood that no matter how much money we have, we all need help. And on the other hand, no matter how poor you are, or how many problems you have, you still might offer your help to others, and you still might be giving. Even it’s just a nice word，you can give that and it can be priceless to another person.‎ Maybe that man was just a homeless stranger, but to me he was more than that. He showed me that one thing, among all other values and achievements, is very important for every person. Actually, it is a true gift.‎ ‎21. How did the author probably feel when he heard the man’s response?‎ A. Disappointed. B. Concerned. C. Relaxed. D. Surprised.‎ ‎22. What would the author agree?‎ A. Poor people could help others too.‎ B_ A nice word isn’t important to the poor.‎ C. Only rich people are able to help others.‎ D. We can help others if we have many problems.‎ ‎23. What is the true gift mentioned in the last paragraph ?‎ A. Trying B. Receiving C. Smiling D. Giving B About ALISON Introduction Welcome to ALISON — a global online learning community.

And many schools even have made their teachers supervise (监管) their students’ behavior more strictly. But one school in Auckland‎, ‎New Zealand has done something different. Instead of making more rules for the playground, they reduced the number of rules. What happened? There’s less bullying and other injuries.‎ At Swanson Primary School, during playtime, students can play in the mud, climb trees, ride skateboards，and do many such things that aren’t allowed at other schools. If they promise that ‎ they do not hurt others and do not make trouble for their classmates, they can do just about anything they want.‎ ‎“They may accidentally hurt themselves，but that’s 〇K,” the teacher Bruce McLachlan says. “We want kids to be safe and we look after them，but we end up wrapping (包裹) them in cotton wool when in fact they should be able to fall over.” Because students are able to do almost anything they want, they are happier. And happier students are less interested in making trouble. That makes parents and teachers happy.‎ Playtime freedom also helps the students learn the dangers of rude behavior. This will help develop the part of their brain that measures risks. This can be helpful when they are older. For example, if a kid does something rude on a skateboard and gets hurt, he or she will be less likely to repeat the rude activity. And if kids learn not to be rude on a skateboard, they are less likely to be hurt later in life when they’re driving cars. Safety is important, but as Swanson Primary School has shown，more rules don’t always mean more safety.‎ ‎28. What happened when a school reduced the number of playground rules?‎ A. Less students were bullied or injured.‎ B. Teachers took on more responsibility.‎ C. Students were out of control completely.‎ D. More parents worried about school bully.‎ ‎29. What rule should students obey if they can do something freely at Swanson‎ ‎Primary School?‎ A. They do not hurt anyone else.‎ B. They’re being strictly supervised C. They study carefully in the classroom.‎ D. They do not make trouble for their teachers.‎ ‎30. What does Bruce McLachlan mean by saying “we end up wrapping them in cotton wool”？‎ A. Students get hurt easily.‎ B. Students are overprotected.‎ C. Students can’t wear what they like.‎ D. Students are given too much freedom.‎ ‎31. According to the last paragraph, playtime freedom helps students ________.‎ A. avoid driving cars B. make safe decisions C. learn how to obey rules D. become more confident D The U.S. Agency for International Development is starting a competition to fight wildlife poaching (盜猎) and trafficking. USAID is asking people to submit ideas that can use science and technology to reduce the illegal activities. People or groups must write detailed descriptions of their suggestions and formally send them to wildlifecrimetech. org.‎ USAID is cooperating with the National Geographic Society, the Smithsonian Institution and the wildlife tracking (追踪) network TRAFFIC on the project. The agency says an idea will be judged on its possible effect on trafficking in real cases and whether it can be used in large-scale (大规模的) actions against criminals. The agency will pick out the most valuable one and pay the winner up to $500,000 as a reward. The less valuable ideas will receive a smaller amount of prize money.‎ Michael Yates, the USAID mission director in Asia, says in recent years, poaching is on the increase sharply and illegal traffic in protected animals is quite common. Individuals and organizations are very helpful in tracking and catching the criminals. They know more ways to strengthen evidence against traffickers. And they also know how to recognize bad behaviors in complicated cases.‎ USAID notes that it’s going to take joint action in each one of these areas to really address this problem. Only in this way can the illegal killing disappear eventually. And it’s something that needs to be considered immediately. The trend lines are just enormously troublesome concerning the rise in poaching.‎ However, the government cannot solve the problem on its own. Experts call on every member of society to take an active part once a solution is found. That’s the key to preventing poaching completely. To a certain extent, it’s a wise idea for USAID to seek opinions from the public. Besides，the high prize money can help arouse the public’s enthusiasm for participation.‎ ‎32. Why does USAID start the competition?‎ A. To introduce wildlifecrimetech.org.‎ B. To show new science and technology.‎ C. To collect good suggestions from people.‎ D. To tell people that illegal killing is serious.‎ ‎33. What do we know about the project?‎ A. It is carried out by USAID alone.‎ B. The ideas submitted should be practical.‎ C. The total number of the prize is $500,000.‎ D. It5s enough for ideas to make sense in theory.‎ ‎34. What does the underlined word “address” in Paragraph 4 probably mean?‎ A. Deal with. B. Make use of.‎ C. Come across. D. Give a speech about.‎ ‎35. What’s the most important point in stopping poaching?‎ A. More prize money is offered.‎ B. Social members don’t get involved.‎ C. The public and government work together.‎ D. The government takes more effective measures.‎ 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频。选项中有两项为多余选项。‎ Playing a musical instrument can be a fun and rewarding hobby. It’s a good way to express feelings and develop confidence in your abilities. _36_ Here are a few questions to help you decide.‎ What kind of music do you like?‎ What you are interested in will encourage you to play. _37_ Traditional orchestra musical instruments are what you hear in classical music. Modem music calls for modem instruments, like electric guitars.‎ Where are you going to practice?‎ ‎_38_ Think about where and when you are going to practice, as well as the patience of the people you live with or near. Some instruments like the guitar give you the chance of playing in the night using earphones, while your housemates sleep in peace. Also, you may need to consider going to a school or a music center to practice.‎ ‎_39_‎ This is quite a big problem. A lot of instruments can be bought in different price ranges. But this doesn’t change the fact that many instruments, such as the piano, are always expensive. If you can’t afford your chosen instrument，will you be able to borrow someone else’s?‎ Are there any physical limitations?‎ If you are small and don’t like lifting heavy objects，you won’t want to carry around a cello (大提琴). If you don’t have great lung power, think twice about the saxophone. _40_ But remember that with the right coaching, everyone can develop the right skills.‎ A. How much money can you spend?‎ B. How easy will it be to find a teacher?‎ C. Don5t let your physical shortcomings put you off.‎ D. A piece of music might move you more than another.‎ E. Talk to people who already play musical instruments.‎ F. Practicing the drums, for example, will drive your neighbors crazy.‎ G. If you want to learn a musical instrument, you might face a problem: what to play?‎ 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，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。‎ I woke up the other day to a phone call from a taxi driver.
