Over the years, Bangkok has established itself as one of the most important regional centers for arts, entertainment and fashion. It is also a major regional force in business and finance.‎ Bangkok is one of the most popular travel destinations(目的地) for people all over the world. This is primarily due to its energetic city life and its incredible cultural landmarks. Bangkok has much to offer to tourists. From shining temples to magnificent palaces, from its well-known floating market to its traditional Chinatown, Bangkok is a city that should not be missed.‎ There are also numerous hotels, guesthouses and hostels available for travelers that are intended to make their stay pleasant and comfortable. There are many that are located right in the center of the city enabling tourists to have access to shopping centers, restaurants, bars and popular landmarks.‎ Most hotels in Bangkok offer 24 hours free Internet access, daily newspapers, theaters, luggage rooms and comfortable bedrooms. For example, Lubd is located in Bangkok 's best hang-out area. You will have access to（接近） all that this city has to offer whether it is culture, entertainment, bars, restaurants, clubs or shopping. At Lubd, you will find high quality accommodation(住宿) and a ‎ fun and friendly staff. It has been picked as one of the seventeen coolest hostels to stay for backpackers by the Observer, UK.‎ The atmosphere of Bangkok is extremely convivial and that is why there is always something going on in the city. These include royal anniversaries, Buddhist rites, lunar religious festivals and other cultural events. Foreign festivals are also celebrated with great passion in Bangkok. These include Christmas and Halloween. Overall, if you're looking for an exciting travel destination in Asia, Bangkok is a city that should definitely not be missed.‎ ‎24. Why do so many people come to see Bangkok?‎ A. Because it is the capital city of Thailand.‎ B. Because people go after fashion in the city.‎ C. Because of its rich culture and fullness of life.‎ D. Because of the mysterious temples and palaces.‎ ‎25. Which of the following isn’t mentioned in the passage?‎ A. Where to live. B. What to eat. C. What to visit. D. How to enjoy.‎ ‎26. What does the underlined word “convivial” mean in the last paragraph?‎ A. Relaxing B. Cheerful C. Different D. Nervous. ‎ ‎27. What can be inferred according to the passage?‎ A. Lubd is considered the best hostel in the world.‎ B. Most of the star hotels are located in the downtown. ‎ ‎ C. Bangkok is highly recommended when we travel in Asia.‎ D. Bangkok provides visitors with expensive accommodations.‎ C Almost everyone has heard the expression, “ the calm before the storm.” It is usually used to describe a peaceful period just before a very stressful situation or a tense argument.‎ British sailors coined the phrase in the late 1600s; they noted that before certain storms the seas would seem to become static and the winds would drop.‎ But why is it often so calm before a storm?‎ Science has given us the answer. According to US infotainment (资讯娱乐) website HowStuffWorks, a calm period occurs because many storms, tornadoes and hurricanes draw in all the warm and humid air from the surrounding area. As this air rises into the storm clouds, it cools and acts as “fuel for the storm, like petrol in a car”.‎ Once the storm has taken all the energy it can from the air, it is pushed out from the top of the storm clouds and falls back down to ground level. As the air descends (下降), it becomes warm and dry. Warm and dry air is stable, so once it covers an area, it causes a calm period before the storm.‎ This same process also causes the “eye of the storm” in hurricanes and tornadoes. In these conditions, the calm occurs in the center of the storm because of the strong rotating (旋转的) winds.‎ The Weather Network has a tip for working out how far away a storm is. First count how many seconds there are between a flash of lightning and a clap of thunder, roughly three seconds equal one kilometer. So, for example, if you count nine seconds, the storm is about three kilometers away. A good gauge(评估) is that if your count is below 30 seconds, you should seek shelter straight away.‎ However, due to the complexity of storm system, not all storms are preceded(发生在…之前) by calm.‎ Given the right conditions, some storms announce themselves with heavy rain and chilling(寒冷的) winds.‎ So, your best bet is to keep yourself updated with weather reports for any predictions regarding a coming storm in your area. That's the most reliable and sensible(合理的) way to predict the next display of natures temper (脾气).‎ ‎28. The underlined word “static” in Paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to .‎ A. violent B. quiet C. fast-changing D. warm ‎ ‎29. What is the main idea of Paragraphs 4 and 5? ‎ A. To explain how a storm comes into being. ‎ B. To support previous research on storm clouds.‎ C. To explain why a peaceful period occurs before a storm. ‎ D. To show how dangerous a storm can be in certain situations. ‎ ‎30. If there are fifteen seconds between a flash of lightning and a thunder clap, how far away is the storm?‎ A. Three kilometers B. Four kilometers. C. Five kilometers D. Six kilometers ‎31. What can we learn from the last paragraph?‎ A. It is not always quiet before a storm. ‎ B. Storms have a big influence on life.‎ C. Heavy storms don’t usually last for a longtime. ‎ D. Weather reports may fail to predict a storm.‎ D My 11-year-old daughter has been awarded an academic scholarship(奖学金) to a private school. It's only a small discount, but the scholarship means she’ll skip the waiting list—provided my husband and I can cover $‎20,000 a year。‎ Should we pay the private school fees or choose free education instead?‎ I always assumed(假定) my children would go to a private school, like I did. Not because my family is wealthy, but because I believe that the best education is private.‎ It took years for me to make peace with the fact that my two children attended our local public primary school.‎ They’ll go to a private high school, I told myself. Yet here we are. My eldest is now in her last year of primary school, and my husband and I will struggle to afford private school.‎ If we’re to send our girl to private school, I could increase my work hours. My law degree was supposed to be my ticket to a good job and a solid income, but that’s not quite how it turned out.‎ The guilt and expectations are mine alone. I'm terrified that my daughter's potential will be wasted at the public school. And yet, I know that working more hours will crush(压垮) me.‎ During many sleepless nights, I felt troubled by the decision.‎ Although I want the best for my daughter, I have my own dreams too. I can' t sacrifice (牺牲) everything for my precious girl.‎ I explain that I want to be a positive role model for my daughter, and an unhappy parent is a terrible strain(负担) on a family.‎ I point out that not even the privilege(特殊优势) of private school will protect my children from disappointment or struggle.‎ And finally, it’s decided. My daughter is going to the public school behind our home. She couldn't be more pleased.‎ It’s taken me a little longer, but now I'm content. More than my fancy private school education, it's my family that shaped me. With high school now 25 years in the past, I can no longer remember the mathematical problems and Shakespearean quotes I once knew so perfectly. The lessons from my childhood home, however, have proved impossible to forget.‎ ‎32. Why did the author want her daughter to go to a private school at first?‎ A. Because her daughter earned an academic scholarship.‎ B. Because she wanted her daughter to receive the best education.‎ C. Because she wanted her daughter to skip the waiting list.‎ D. Because her daughter’s potential was wasted at the public primary school.‎ ‎33. The author decided her daughter to go to a public school mainly because she realized that . ‎ A. private school doesn’t guarantee a solid income B. she didn’t want her daughter to struggle in private school C. however hard she worked, she couldn't afford private school D. public school is the most balanced choice for her family ‎34. When the decision was made, .‎ A. the author’s daughter was disappointed B. the author felt sorry and guilty about it C. both the author and her daughter were content with the result D. the author encouraged her daughter to be a role model at school ‎35. What is the main message the author intends to convey in the last paragraph?‎ A. Family influences a child’s growth more than school education.‎ B. The lessons learned during our childhood will stay with us forever.‎ C. It always takes people a long time to make a right decision.‎ D. Private school education is not as good as people expect.‎ 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5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。‎ How to stay focused in class Being relaxed during class is a bad habit, and it is also bad for your grade. Focusing in class not only proves to teachers that you are a capable student but also shows that you have the ability to control yourself, which will be very important.‎ ‎ 36 . No matter how much you want to sit with your friends during the class, try your best to avoid them. Talking with friends around you is not going to give you the focus in class. This will get you into trouble.‎ Look at teacher and make eye contact. Your teacher is not just standing up there talking. 37 . Show the teacher that he or she has your full attention by looking them in the eye. This person should have your full attention at all times during class.‎ Take notes. By taking notes, you’ll be able to “get into” the lesson. Write down key points as your teacher speaks. And listen to the key phrases such as “This is important” “This is the main idea” “This will be the test” etc. 38 . ‎ Get involved in class discussions. This is a wonderful way to become a more focused, successful student. When a teacher asks a question, offer to answer it. 39 . This shows the teacher that you are listening carefully during the class.‎ Ask a question. 40 . This really shows your teacher that you want to be better, and can recognize the things you are having difficulty with. Chances are that someone else in the class has the same question (and was too afraid to ask!). They’ll be relieved, and so will you. ‎ A. Avoid sitting with friends.‎ B. This can help you listen more attentively.‎ C. If he or she ask for an opinion, share your own.‎ D. Talking with friends makes you lose interest in class.‎ E. He or she is trying to give you an acceptable education.‎ F. The more quickly you answer, the more attention you pay.‎ G. If you don’t understand something, never be afraid to ask.‎ 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）‎ Michael Johnson, a teacher at Davis High School in California, gave each of his students $25.
