A
When I was growing up in America, I was ashamed of my mother's Chinese English. Because of her English, she was often treated unfairly. People in department stores, at banks, and at restaurants did not take her seriously, did not give her good service, pretended not to understand her, or even acted as if they did not hear her.
My mother has long realized the limitations of her English as well. When I was fifteen, she used to have me call people on the phone to pretend I was she. I was forced to ask for information or even to shout at people who had been rude to her. One time I had to call her stockbroker (股票经纪人). I said in an adolescent voice that was not very convincing (令人相信的)，“This is Mrs. Tan. "
And my mother was standing beside me, whispering loudly, “Why he don't send me check already two week late. "
And then, in perfect English I said: "I'm getting rather concerned. You agreed to send the check two weeks ago, but it hasn't arrived. "
Then she talked more loudly. "What he want I come to New York tell him front of his boss. "And so I turned to the stockbroker again "I can't tolerate (容忍) any more excuse. If I don't receive the check immediately, I am going to have to speak to your manager when I am in New York next week. "
The next week we ended up in New York. While I was sitting there red-faced, my mother, the real, was shouting to his boss in her broken English.
When I was a teenager, my mother’ s broken English embarrassed me. But now, I see it differently. To me, my mother’s English is perfectly clear, perfectly natural. It is my mother tongue. Her language, as I hear it, is vivid, direct, and full of observation and wisdom. It was the language that helped shape the way I saw things, expressed ideas, and made sense of the world.

The Value of Tears
Tears can ruin make-up, bring conversation to a stop, and give you a runny nose. They can leave you embarrassed and without energy. However, crying is a fact of life ... and tears are very useful. Even when you’re not crying, your eyes produce tears. These create a film (薄膜) over the eye’s surface. ___42___
Tears relieve stress, but we lend to fight them for all sorts of reasons. “People worry about showing their emotions. They’re afraid that once they lose control, they’ll never get it back,” explains psychologist Dorothy Rowe. “As children we were sometimes punished for shedding tears or expressing anger. As adults we still fear the consequences of showing emotions.”
Almost any emotion — good or bad, happy or sad — can cause tears. Crying is a way that we release built-up emotions. ___43___ It may explain why people who are afraid to cry often suffer more heart attacks than people cry more freely.
When some people become very stressed, however, they can’t cry. They may be feeling shock, anger, fear, or grief, but they repress the emotion. “Everyone has the need to cry,” says psychotherapist Vera Diamond. Sometime in therapy sessions, patients participate in crying exercise. ___44___ Diamond says it’s best to cry in safe, private places, like under the bed covers or in the car. That’s because many people get uncomfortable when others cry in front of them. In fact, they may be repressing their own need to cry.
In certain situations, such as at work, tears are not appropriate. ___45___ “But once you are safely behind closed doors, don’t just cry,” Diamond says, she suggests that you act out the whole situation again and be as noisy and angry as you like. It will help you feel better. “And,” she adds, “Once your tears have released the stress, you can begin to think of logical way to deal with the problem.”
Tears are a sign of our ability to feel. You should never be afraid to cry.
A. Tears help you when you feel you are ready to explode because of very strong feelings.
B. It is useful to reduce the nerve of our eyes and make them comfortable.
C. They practice crying so that they can get used to expressing emotion.
D. This film contains a substance that protects your eyes against infection.
E. They have brought a lot of benefits for treating patients.
F. It’s good to hold back tears during a tense business discussion.

【答案】1. storing
2. being put
3. Although
4. deeper 5. themselves
6. would 7. what
8. is being reported
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇新闻报道。文章对一个132岁的时间胶囊的发掘进行了报道。
【详解】1.考查现在分词。句意：时间胶囊是一种容器，用来储存一些被选择为当代典型的物品，并被埋在地下等待将来被发现。动词store（储藏）和逻辑主语container构成主动关系，所以用现在分词作定语。故填storing。
2. 考查动名词和被动语态。句意：1887年，在由一个学校委员会整理后，它首次被埋葬在犹他州的盐湖城。介词after后动词用动名词形式，动词put（放置）和逻辑主语it（指代前文提到的132岁的时间胶囊）构成被动关系，所以用动名词的被动形式。故填being put。
3.考查关联词。句意：虽然叠好的报纸看起来完好无损，但无法说出日期。前文讲“叠好的报纸看起来完好无损”，后文讲“无法说出日期”，所以前半句应为让步状语从句，故填Although。
4.考查比较级。句意：这个胶囊讲述了犹他州的早期教育的故事，但它也更深入，展示了人们希望自己和他们的工作被记住的方式。根据后文讲“它展示了人们希望自己和他们的工作被记住的方式”可知，它讲得更深入。所以用比较级。故填deeper。
5.考查反身代词。句意：这个胶囊讲述了犹他州的早期教育的故事，但它也更深入，展示了人们希望自己和他们的工作被记住的方式。根据their work可知，那些埋了时间胶囊的人们是希望自己和他们的工作被记住。故填themselves。
6.考查过去将来时。句意：那些埋葬了时间胶囊的人认为有一天它能向人们展示他们真实的生活。根据one day可知，句子应用将来时，但在宾语从句中时态应与主句一致，主句中根据thought可知是一般过去时，所以此处应用过去将来时。故填would。
7.考查宾语从句。句意：这是一种记住他们认为很重要的东西的方式。of后的宾语从句中缺少谓语动词matters的主语，they felt是插入语，且此处是指事物，故填what。
8.考查现在进行时和被动语态。句意：犹他州各地都在报道这一消息，我们将随时为您提供最新消息。根据now可知时态应用现在时，根据“我们将随时为您提供最新消息”，是正处于报道中，所以用现在进行时。主语the news（新闻）和动词report（报道）构成被动关系，所以用被动语态。故填is being reported。

Section B(16分)
Directions: Read the folloeing three passage. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B,C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the Information given in the passage you have just read.
A
When I was growing up in America, I was ashamed of my mother's Chinese English. Because of her English, she was often treated unfairly. People in department stores, at banks, and at restaurants did not take her seriously, did not give her good service, pretended not to understand her, or even acted as if they did not hear her.
My mother has long realized the limitations of her English as well. When I was fifteen, she used to have me call people on the phone to pretend I was she. I was forced to ask for information or even to shout at people who had been rude to her. One time I had to call her stockbroker (股票经纪人). I said in an adolescent voice that was not very convincing (令人相信的)，“This is Mrs. Tan. "
And my mother was standing beside me, whispering loudly, “Why he don't send me check already two week late. "
And then, in perfect English I said: "I'm getting rather concerned. You agreed to send the check two weeks ago, but it hasn't arrived. "
Then she talked more loudly. "What he want I come to New York tell him front of his boss. "And so I turned to the stockbroker again, "I can't tolerate (容忍) any more excuse. If I don't receive the check immediately, I am going to have to speak to your manager when I am in New York next week. "
The next week we ended up in New York. While I was sitting there red-faced, my mother, the real, was shouting to his boss in her broken English.
When I was a teenager, my mother’ s broken English embarrassed me. But now, I see it differently. To me, my mother’s English is perfectly clear, perfectly natural. It is my mother tongue. Her language, as I hear it, is vivid, direct, and full of observation and wisdom. It was the language that helped shape the way I saw things, expressed ideas, and made sense of the world.

The Value of Tears
Tears can ruin make-up, bring conversation to a stop, and give you a runny nose. They can leave you embarrassed and without energy. However, crying is a fact of life ... and tears are very useful. Even when you’re not crying, your eyes produce tears. These create a film (薄膜) over the eye’s surface. ___42___
Tears relieve stress, but we lend to fight them for all sorts of reasons. “People worry about showing their emotions. They’re afraid that once they lose control, they’ll never get it back,” explains psychologist Dorothy Rowe. “As children we were sometimes punished for shedding tears or expressing anger. As adults we still fear the consequences of showing emotions.”
Almost any emotion — good or bad, happy or sad — can cause tears. Crying is a way that we release built-up emotions. ___43___ It may explain why people who are afraid to cry often suffer more heart attacks than people cry more freely.
When some people become very stressed, however, they can’t cry. They may be feeling shock, anger, fear, or grief, but they repress the emotion. “Everyone has the need to cry,” says psychotherapist Vera Diamond. Sometime in therapy sessions, patients participate in crying exercise. ___44___ Diamond says it’s best to cry in safe, private places, like under the bed covers or in the car. That’s because many people get uncomfortable when others cry in front of them. In fact, they may be repressing their own need to cry.
In certain situations, such as at work, tears are not appropriate. ___45___ “But once you are safely behind closed doors, don’t just cry,” Diamond says, she suggests that you act out the whole situation again and be as noisy and angry as you like. It will help you feel better. “And,” she adds, “Once your tears have released the stress, you can begin to think of logical way to deal with the problem.”
Tears are a sign of our ability to feel You should never be afraid to cry.
A. Tears help you when you feel you are ready to explode because of very strong feelings.
B. It is useful to reduce the nerve of our eyes and make them comfortable.
C. They practice crying so that they can get used to expressing emotion.

【答案】It is acknowledged that some short video apps have gain increasing popularity among people. They all use these short video apps to be a major channel for entertainment, information sharing and social interaction. However, I don’t think it a good phenomenon.
Compared with traditional videos, short videos will do much more harm to us. For example, we can watch a short video just with a phone in hand. It means much more screen time, especially for those without discipline and self-control. It will certainly do damage to their health physically and mentally. In addition, traditional videos are usually made by the government and are reliable, while most information from short videos has not been verified, so they will surely mislead the people watching them and might cause serious problems.
So, even if the short videos are at their high tide, I still hold the view that we can watch short videos occasionally but we shouldn’t indulge in them.
