A person can choose to love." To myself,I had to admit that I had been a selfish husband.Well,for two weeks that would change.‎ And it did.Right from the moment I kissed Evelyn at the door and said,"That new yellow sweater looks great on you.""Oh,Tom,you noticed",she said,surprised and pleased. Maybe a little puzzled.After the long drive, I wanted to sit and read. Evelyn suggested a walk on the beach. I started to refuse, but then I thought "Evelyn's been alone here with the kids all week and now she wants to be alone with me." We walked on the beach while the children flew their kites.‎ So it went.Two weeks of not calling the Wall Street firm where I am a director;a visit to the shell museum though I usually hate museums.Relaxed and happy,that's ‎ how the whole vacation passed.I made a new promise to keep on remembering to choose love.‎ There was one thing that went wrong with my experiment,however.Evelyn and I still laugh about it today.On the last night at our cottage,preparing for bed,Evelyn stared at me with the saddest expression.‎ ‎"What's the matter?" I asked her.‎ ‎"Tom," she said in a voice filled with distress,"I don't?" "What do you mean?"‎ ‎"Well...that checkup I had several weeks ago...our doctor...did he tell you something about me?Tom,you've been so good to me...am I dying?"‎ It took a moment for it all to be understood.Then I burst out laughing.‎ ‎"No,honey," I said,wrapping her in my arms."You're not dying;I'm just starting to live."‎ ‎21．From the story we may infer that Tom drove to the beach cottage . A．with his family B．with Evelyn C．alone D．with his children ‎22. The author says,"There was one thing that went wrong with my experiment." What does "one thing" refer to?‎ A．He praised her sweater,which puzzled her.‎ B．She insisted on visiting a museum,which he hated. ‎ C．He knew something about her illness but didn't tell her. D．He was so good to her that she thought she must be dying.‎ ‎23．By saying "I'm just starting to live," Tom means that . A．he is just beginning to enjoy life as a loving husband B．he is just beginning to understand the real meaning of life C．he lived an unhappy life before and is now starting to change D．he is beginning to feel regret for what he did to his wife before B.‎ Car companies such as Tesla and Nissan have been leading the way in electric car technology.What makes these cars “green” is that because they run on electricity instead of gasoline，they do not give off any polluting greenhouse gases.The Toyota Mirai is also a kind of green car，since it is powered by a hydrogen fuel (氢燃料) battery.‎ Hydrogen ，as you know ，exists in large quantities on the earth.It was used to power ‎‎ gaslights for centuries before electric lights came along.Hydrogen fuel can be made from many sources including water，natural gas and even rubbish.In terms of energy contained，9.5kg of hydrogen is equal to 25kg of gasoline.According to Toyota，the two tanks on the Mirai hold ‎5kg of hydrogen ，and can cover a distance of over 300 miles.This is twice the output of gasoline cars.‎ In a hydrogen fuel battery，the one proton (质子) and one electron in a hydrogen atom are broken up.While the electrons power the car，the positivelycharged hydrogen proton combines with the oxygen atom to produce water.The process also produces a lot of heat which turns this water into water vapor.This is the reason that cars running on hydrogen fuel batteries give off water vapor from their exhaust pipes when running.‎ According to Toyota，it takes only 5 minutes to refill a hydrogen tank，which is much quicker than charging electric cars.However ，the biggest challenge for the company is the availability of hydrogen charging stations.California and the New England states are in the process of building a hydrogen superhighway—with charging stations along the way.Countries like Germany，Japan and UK are also adding more charging stations.‎ The Toyota Mirai will be available in the U.S.in the second half of 2015 for $58,000.This hydrogenfueled car will probably take the place of gasoline cars in the near future.After all，it is an energysaving and environmentfriendly car.‎ ‎24．According to the text，hydrogen ．‎ A．can only be used as a fuel for cars B．is a newlydiscovered energy ‎ source C．provides more energy than an equal amount of gasoline D．will soon become the main fuel for most of Toyota's cars ‎25．What can we learn about the Toyota Mirai? A．It runs on both gasoline and hydrogen.‎ B．It has become a great threat to electric cars.‎ C．It gives off only a few polluting greenhouse gases. D．It may sell well with more charging stations around.‎ ‎26．What would be the best title for the text?‎ A．A new wave of green cars B．The benefits of electric cars C．Tesla: a leading car company D．Hydrogen: future energy sources C.‎ Grasse has always been associated with smell.In the Middle Ages it smelt particularly unpleasant due to its leather tanning（制革） industry．The nobles only rarely visited the pretty and charming town to pick up their handmade Grasse leather gloves.In spite of their grand lands in the surrounding countryside ，Grasse was certainly a necessary evil （邪恶） with no self-respecting nobles owning buildings there．‎ Molinard，a Grasse tanner（制革工人） himself，created the first Grasse perfume（香水）.Word spread like wildfire among the nobles about the designer perfumed gloves．Molinard ‎ offered a pair of his gloves to Catherine de Medici （ the Queen ），who gave plenty of praise to her Grasse perfumed gloves；she almost assured Grasse's reputation as the perfume capital of the world．Thanks to Catherine de Medici，Grasse merchants（商人） were encouraged to grow the perfume plants that tanners needed to supply perfumed leather to the nobles．‎ Grasse has four perfume factories as well as a perfume school and a perfume museum．Fragonard's perfume museum is situated on the first floor of its perfume factory and displays an amazing private collection of perfume bottles ，presentation boxes ，documents and equipment that tells the history of perfume making from its earliest beginnings to the present day ．The perfume museum is open every day，Sundays and public holidays included．‎ Grasse is certainly a perfumed heaven,a far cry from its smelly beginning as a leather tanning town ．Now famous for a far sweeter smell,Grasse is surrounded by fields of flowers that make real estate（不动产） in Grasse very popular．‎ Those looking for real estate in France would have to go a long way to find anywhere more charming than Grasse with the city of Nice and its airport just a short drive away and plenty of activities to enjoy in the surrounding countryside．Real estate in Grasse is situated between the Southern Alps and the Cote d'Azur，allowing owners the best of both worlds．‎ ‎27．Why was Grasse considered to be necessary although it was an evil？ ‎ A．Because it produced leather gloves． B．Because it made the nobles look respectable． C．Because many nobles lived in its countryside． D．Because it was a beautiful and attractive town．‎ ‎28．According to the text，Fragonard's perfume museum ．‎ A．has several perfume factories B．can be visited all the year around．‎ C．is famous for its perfume school D．shows visitors the history of Grasse．‎ ‎29．The underlined words"a far cry"in the 4th paragraph can be replaced by" " A．a good long cry B．totally absent C．very different D．far distant ‎30．What is the main idea of the last paragraph？ A．Grasse is still less competitive in real estate． B．Grasse is now a perfect place for people to live．‎ C．Grasse is becoming an important tourist attraction． D．Living in Grasse might cause you much inconvenience． 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。‎ What Is Fear?‎ Fear is a basic feeling arising when we fed threatened, and can have physical symptoms such as sweaty hands and an increased heart rate. 31 On the upside...‎ ‎‎ Fear tells us are moving towards the edge of our comfort zone.We are doing something unfamiliar and learning new skills. This means we are growing, and growth means that once we go beyond the uncomfortable bit, we will be stronger, better and brighter than before! 32 ‎ Things are never as bad as they seem.‎ In most cases, the thing we fear is never as bad as we think it will be. When we are trying to make a decision to do something new, we lack the perspective（洞察力）to see further than the familiar range.‎ ‎33 No. If you look back on some of the scary things you’ve had to do in the past, you would now say ‎“What was so scary about this?!”‎ We are always stronger than we think!‎ Fear can teach us so much about our personal powers. There is no other feeling like the victory you feel that makes you realize you won. 34 Who cares? You made the leap! This will build your confidence! Think of your yoga practice. We can stand on our hands, even though we sometimes doubted it. And it will make us realize that we are so strong!‎ Fear is part of life, and doesn’t need to be eliminated（排除）.‎ ‎35 We can welcome it; we can cope with it and proceed in spite of it. The best decisions in life art rarely the easiest ones. Or rather, they may seem easy, but often come with fear. To quit your job is not easy, but if you know it’s the right thing to do, you know what you need to do. Following your heart will not come without fear, but it will come with big rewards.‎ A.Face the feeling of fear bravely. B.And everything unfamiliar is scary? C.Catch every opportunity to be successful.‎ D.We don’t need to remove fear from our lives.‎ E. So when you fed fear approaching, say thank you!‎ F. You succeeded, even though not every try is perfect.‎ G. But it can be a useful feeling when it comes to keeping us safe.‎ 第三部分 语言运用（共四节，满分 65 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 A、B、C 和 D 四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最 佳选项。‎ Mum said they might not be back until after eleven.
