In the classic TV production, one scene in particular impressed me: when Mrs. Darling puts her children into bed. As she turns off the last of the night light, she takes one last look at the bedroom and says, “Dear night lights, protect my sleeping children.” As a mother, I know how much she loves her children.‎ It has been several weeks since we took our daughter to college and she seems to be adjusting well after a short period of homesickness. For us, though, it’s another story. Like most parents, I love checking in on my children at night. But now she’s gone, and I find nighttimes the hardest. I miss her most at night.‎ In my neighborhood, most of the parents whose kids are off to college are dealing with similar melancholy. My husband is filled with anxiety. One friend talked about getting this sick feeling in her stomach as she prepared for the college drop-off. We complained that many of us were too busy to truly enjoy being with our children while we had them.‎ For us moms, seeing Toy Story 3 only made the sadness worse as we watched the character Andy, who is the same age as our kids, say goodbye to his childhood as he prepares to leave for college. And it’s not just “first-time” parents like me. Two moms who have kids already well into college said the separation didn’t get any easier. “You feel like something has been taken away from inside you” said one of them.‎ I imagine things will get easier with time, especially as I see my daughter adjust to college life. Meanwhile, as I keep my cell phone close to me in bed and text my daughter ‎ goodnight and sweet dreams every night, I like to think that messages serve as a night light that keeps her safe.‎ ‎24. The writer was deeply impressed by the scene in Peter Pan because ________.‎ A. she watched the scene with her daughter B. the scene was very exciting and interesting C. the scene taught her and her daughter a good lesson D. the scene showed a mother’s deep love for her children ‎25. After her daughter went to college, the writer ________.‎ A. realized she hadn’t done enough for her daughter ‎ B. often cried as she missed her daughter so much C. failed to have a good sleep every night D. didn’t get used to the change for a long time ‎26. What is the underlined word “melancholy” in Paragraph 3 similar in meaning to?‎ A . Happiness. B. Sadness. C. Excitement. D. Anger.‎ ‎27. According to the last paragraph, why did the writer keep her cell phone close to her in bed?‎ A.To say good night to her daughter. B. To wait for her daughter’s calls. C.To wait for her daughter’s messages. D. To call her daughter any time.‎ ‎ C ‎ ‎  A machine that takes sweat-laden (浸满汗水的) clothes and turns the sweat into drinking water is in use in Sweden. The machine makes the clothes turn round quickly, heats them to remove the sweat, and then passes the steam through a kind of special material to make purified water.‎ Since it has been brought into use, its creators say more than 1000 people have drunk others’ “sweat” in Gothenburg. They add the liquid is cleaner than local tap water.‎ The device was built for the United Nations’ child-focused charity UNICEF to promote a campaign highlighting the fact that 780 million people in the world lack access to clean water.‎ The machine was designed and built by the engineer Andreas Hammar, known locally for his appearances on TV tech show “Mekatronik”. He said the key part of the sweat machine was a new water purification part developed by a company named HVR.‎ ‎“It uses a technique called membrane distillation (膜蒸馏),” he told the BBC. “We use a special kind of material that only lets steam through but keeps bacteria, salts, clothing fibers and other things out. They have something similar to the International Space Station, but our machine is cheaper to build. The amount of water it produces depends on how sweaty the person is, but one person’s T-shirt typically produces 10ml, about a mouthful.”‎ The device has been put on show at the Gothia Cup-the world’s largest international youth football tournament. Mattias Ronge, chief executive of Stockholm-based advertising agency Deportivo, said the machine had helped raise awareness for UNICEF, but in reality had its limitations.‎ ‎“People haven’t produced as much sweat as we hoped – right now the weather in Gothenburg is lousy,” Mattias Ronge said. “So we’ve equipped the machine with exercise bikes and volunteers are cycling like crazy. Even so, the demand for sweat is greater than the ‎ supply. And the machine will never be produced in large numbers, since there are better solutions out there such as water purifying pills.”‎ ‎28. Which of the following is the disadvantage of the sweat machine?‎ A.The amount of water the machine produces is rather limited. B. It takes too long for the machine to produce water. C. It costs a large amount of money to build the machine. D. The water processed by the machine is not clean enough.‎ ‎29. UNICEF is mentioned in the text to ________.‎ A. show how the sweat machine works B. show the importance of the United Nations C. explain why the sweat machine was invented D. tell us who invented the sweat machine ‎30. What did Mattias Ronge think of the sweat machine?‎ A. It could only be used in summer. B. It was not worth popularizing. ‎ C. It did not work at all. D. The water it produced tasted sweet.‎ ‎31. The text is written mainly to tell us that ______________.‎ A. 780 million people in the world lack access to clean water B. a machine which turns sweat into drinking water is invented C. a better solution to purifying dirty water is discovered D. the pill which turns dirty water into clean water is produced ‎ D ‎ Yesterday night, over a dinner with my elder brother’s family, a topic of happiness came up. My wife, Marla, a psychologist, was sharing Csikszentmihalyi’s concept of “flow” with us. Marla explained that according to the research on flow, people are happiest when they are absorbed in a task that is just challenging enough for them to experience a sense of mastery(熟练).‎ A few moments later my brother, Yuri, offered the following opinion: “The first and only, necessary and sufficient factor for happiness is to stop associating happiness with pleasure. The two — happiness and pleasure — have nothing to do with each other.” This morning, with my cup of coffee, I searched through a pile of books on my bedside table and—at the bottom—found a book by Bertrand Russell, I started reading but didn’t finish. In it, I found the following thought:‎ ‎ “The human animal, like others, is adapted to a certain amount of struggle for life, and when 【…】his whims (突发奇想) 【are satisfied】 without effort, the mere absence of effort from his life removes an essential ingredient of happiness.”‎ ‎    The conversation came full circle: people are happiest when they are in a state of flow ( Csikszentmihalyi’s language )…which is the effortful devotion in a moment…which has nothing to do with pleasure.‎ ‎      Indeed, as Yuri insisted : happiness–as–pleasure is a myth; the association between happiness and pleasure is nothing but a semantic(语义的) habit; psychologically, the two—happiness and pleasure—are arguably different; and breaking up this association between pleasure and happiness might, in fact, be a powerfully first step in pursuit of happiness.‎ ‎    As I look back on that exchange, I recall that there was an effort, a struggle to find a common understanding about this seemingly difficult idea—a struggle that made me happy.‎ ‎32. The author wrote this text mainly to_______.‎ A. look back on the happy night B. advise readers to read Bertrand Russell C. tell readers how to be happiest D. show different opinions on family gathering ‎33. According to Marla, people feel happiest when they______.‎ A. get what they want without effort B. master the happiness around them C. involve themselves in a challenging task D. experience things that can bring pleasure ‎34. What writing style is used by the author to explain happiness?‎ A. Giving examples. B. Using quotes. C. Making comparisons. D. Offering arguments.‎ ‎35. The best title of the text may probably be______.‎ A. The struggle for life B. Happiness as pleasure C. A topic over the dinner D. The effort for happiness 第三部分 英语知识运用（共两节，满分50分）‎ 第一节 完形填空（共20小题；每题1分，满分20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。‎ ‎ Back to School[]‎ I had always longed to get a degree, but raising a family had come first.
