Having undergone a lot of sufferings and frustrations, he walked the street, feeling desperate.‎ On that same night, I was sitting in my room when I heard the doorbell rang. My mom opened the door, finding herself face-to-face with a very disheveled-looking man, Mark, with tears running down his face. My mom, overcome by pity, invited him inside.‎ Curious, I went downstairs to get a better look. The sight of the man, holding his head in his hands and crying, made my chest ache. I raced back upstairs to my room, pulled out my only half-dollar coin from my money jar and ran back downstairs.‎ When I reached the door of the living room, I walked right in and quickly made my way over to the stranger- I put the half-dollar in his hand and told him that I wanted him to have it. Then I ‎ gave him a hug and turned and ran as fast as I could out of the room and back up the stairs.‎ Downstairs, tears streamed down Mark’s face as he tightly held that coin. Finally he said, “It’s just that I thought nobody cared. For the last twenty years, I have been so alone. That was the first hug I have gotten. It’s hard to believe that somebody cares.”‎ Before Mark left, my parents asked him why he had knocked on our door, Mark said that as he was walking the streets that rainy night, hopeless and ready to die, he noticed a bumper sticker (车贴) on our car reading SOMEBODY LOVES YOU.‎ It’s hard to imagine that a bumper sticker and fifty cents could change a person’s life. Mark’s life did change that night. When he left our house, he was ready to live instead of die.‎ ‎21. Mom let Mark inside our house because she .‎ A. was hospitable to anyone B. was ready to help others C. wanted to educate me D. felt sorry for him ‎22. Why did Mark cry when he tightly held the coin?‎ A. Because he realized he was not abandoned by the world.‎ B. Because he was worried about whether he could pay it back.‎ C. Because he finally got money when he was in great need of it.‎ D. Because he felt ashamed that he should get money from a child.‎ ‎23. Which of the following can best describe the author?‎ A. Curious and desperate. B. Sympathetic and nice.‎ C. Miserable and kind. D. Brave and thoughtful.‎ B New Zealand‎ attracts more than its fair share of visitors, both outdoors enthusiasts and movie buffs coming to spots in The Hobbit and Lord of the Rings. Among the nation’s hottest cities is Wellington, which made Rough Guides, list this year. Not only does Wellington have a busy cafeteria and craft beer scene, but in 2015 the city of 200,000 people is celebrating its 150th year as New Zealand’s capital.‎ Sarah Melke, director of the Visa Wellington on a Plate food festival, said the city has no shortage of restaurants, bars and cafes. Cuba Street, in particular, located just the south of the Central Business District (CBD), is “seriously cool”, she said. The city has more than a dozen independent coffee roasters.‎ Wellington’s fancy, creative atmosphere comes in part from a strong community (社区) feel. “We say that Wellington ‘acts like a city, but loves like a village,’” Melke said. Travel blogger Liz Carlson, who moved to the city from Washington‎ ‎DC, agreed. “Every bar-tender has a smile for you, people in shops ask you how you are doing, and strangers greet you on the street,” she said.‎ The community atmosphere can be felt across the city’s neighborhoods. Kelburn, just north of the CBD, is easily accessed by cable car and is popular with students and families, while film lovers may want to check out Miramar, southeast of the city center. That’s where the Weta film studios are located and where Lord of the Rings director Peter Jackson calls home.‎ ‎24. Which of the following is the closest in meaning with the underlined word in the first paragraph?‎ A. giants B. directors C. industries D. lovers ‎25. What is paragraph three mainly about?‎ A. food B. cafeterias C. atmosphere D. bars ‎26. According to the passage, if you visit Wellington‎, ‎New Zealand, you shouldn’t miss .‎ A. its cafeterias and movie spots B. its food and music C. its CBD and business atmosphere D. its film studios and communities ‎27. What kind of passage is this?‎ A. Narration B. Exposition C. Argumentation D. Poem C As more and more people speak the global languages of English, Chinese, Spanish, and French, other languages are rapidly disappearing. In fact, half of the 6,000-7,000 languages spoken around the world today will likely die out by the next century, according to the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO).‎ In an effort to prevent language loss, scholars (学者) from a number of organizations --- UNESCO and National Geographic among them — have for many years been documenting (纪录) dying languages and the cultures they reflect. Mark Turin, a scientist at the Macmillan Centre Yale University, who specializes in the languages and oral traditions of the Himalayas, is following that tradition. His recently published book, A Grammar of Thangmi with an Ethnolinguistic Introduction to the Speakers and Their Culture, grows out of his experience living, working, and raising a family in a village in Nepal.‎ Documenting the Thangmi language and culture is just a starting point for Turin, who seeks to include other languages and oral traditions across the Himalayan reaches of India, Nepal, Bhutan, and China. But he is not satisfied to simply record these voices before they disappear without record. At the University‎ of ‎Cambridge Turin discovered a wealth of important materials, including photographs, films, tape recordings, and field notes, which had remained unstudied and were badly in need of care and protection. Now, through the two organizations that he has founded, the Digital Himalaya Project and the World Oral Literature Project, Turin has started a campaign to make such documents, for the world available not just to scholars but to the younger generations of communities from whom the materials were originally collected. Thanks to digital technology and the widely available Internet, Turin notes, the endangered languages can be saved and reconnected with speech communities.‎ ‎28. Many scholars are making efforts to .‎ A. save global languages B. search for new languages C. rescue disappearing languages D. set up language research centers ‎29. What does “that tradition” in Paragraph 2 refer to?‎ A. Writing books on language teaching. B. Having fall records of the languages C. Telling stories about language users D. Living with the native speaker.‎ ‎30. What is Turin’s book based on?‎ A. His experience in Nepal. B. The documents available at Yale.‎ C. His language research in Bhutan. D. The cultural studies ‎31. Which of the following best describe Turin’s work?‎ A. Write, sell and donate. B. Record, repair and reward.‎ C. Design, experiment and report. D. Collect, protect and reconnect.‎ D It is believed that life will be better after we get married, have a baby, than another. Then we are frustrated that the kids aren’t old enough and we’ll be more content when they are. After that we’re frustrated that we have teenagers to deal with. We will certainly be happy when they are out of that stage.‎ We always tell ourselves that our life will be complete when our spouse (配偶) gets his or her act together, when we get a nice a car, and are able to go on a nice vocation when we retire.‎ ‎ The truth is, there’s no better time than right now. If not now, when? Our life will always be filled with challenges. It’s best to admit this to ourselves and decide to be happy anyway.‎ One of my favorite quotes comes from Alfred Souza. He said, “For a long time it had seemed to me that life was about to begin-real life. But there was always some obstacle in the way, something to be gotten through first, some unfinished business, time still to be served, a debt to be paid. Then life would begin. At last it dawned on me that these obstacles were my life.” This perspective has helped me to see that there is no way to happiness. Happiness is the way. So treasure every moment that you have. And remember that time waits for no one. So stop waiting until you finish school; until you go back to school; until you get married; until you get divorced; until you have kids; until you retire; until you get a new car or home; until spring; until you are born again to decide that there is no better time than right now to be happy.‎ Happiness is a journey, not a destination. So, work like you don’t need money, love like you’ve never been hurt, and dance like no one’s watching.‎ ‎32. Which of the following is the commonly accepted idea?‎ A. Happiness is a journey.‎ B. We should suffer before we can enjoy.‎ C. We shouldn’t wait for tomorrow.‎ D. We are happier in the future than now.‎ ‎33. Which would be the best title for this passage?‎ A. Happiness is A Journey B. Life Will be Better C. Be Brave to Face the Challenges in Life D. Don’t Wait ‎34. Which of the following would the author agree?‎ A. Go on a vocation only when you retire. B. Stop putting things off till tomorrow.‎ C. Wait for a better life. D. Enjoy life after you’ve got a new car.‎ ‎35. The author quotes Alfred Souza to prove that .‎ A. Tomorrow is always better than today B. Time will wait for you if you work hard C. Happiness is the way if you live in the present D. Obstacles in life are to be avoided ‎ 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。‎ The Internet has opened up a whole new online world for us to meet, chat and go where we’ve never been before.‎ ‎ 36 The basic rule is simple: treat others in the same way you would want to be treated. Imagine how you’d feel if you were in the other person’s shoes.‎ For anything you’re about to send: ask yourself, “Would I say this to the person’s face?” If the answer is no, rewrite and reread. Repeat the process till you feel sure that you’d feel comfortable saying the words to the person’s face.‎ If someone in the chat room is rude to you, your instinct (本能) is to fire back in the same manner. 37 You should either ignore the person, or use your chat software to block their messages. If it was caused by a disagreement with another member, try to fix the situation by politely discussing it. Remember to respect the beliefs and opinions of others in the chat room.‎ Everyone was new to the network once. 38 When someone makes a mistake, whether it’s a stupid question or an unnecessarily long answer, be kind about it. If it’s a small mistake, you may not need to say anything. Even if you feel strongly about it, think twice before saying anything. Having good manners yourself doesn’t give you license to correct everyone else. 39 At the same time, if you find you are wrong, be sure to correct yourself and apologize to those that you have offended.‎ ‎ 40 Unless you know the person very well, and you are both comfortable with sharing personal information, don’t ask such questions.‎ A. It’s natural that there some people who speak rudely or make mistakes online.‎ B. But just as in face to face communication, there are some rules of behavior that should be followed when on line.‎ C. It is not polite to ask others personal questions such as their age, sex and marital status.‎ D. When you send short messages to a person online, you must say something beautiful to hear.‎ E. But try not to do so.‎ F. If you do decide to tell someone about a mistake, point it out politely.‎ G. Offer advice when asked by newcomers, as they may not be sure what to do or how to communicate.‎ 第三节 完形填空（共20小题；每小题1.5分，满分30分）‎ 阅读下面的短文，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。‎ The story happened ages ago, when my daughter was still little.‎ I was driving across the country with my daughter to 41 my husband.
