After I made it to the city center, I started to feel it might be easy for a foreigner to deal with the great size of Beijing. With growing confidence, I decided to take the subway to the hotel, not realizing that the network didn’t go that far. Impressed with the cleanliness of the station, I bought a ticket and boarded the first subway that came along.
After a few minutes I asked in English a young man seated next to me where I should get off closest to the Friendship Hotel. Wearing a smart business suit and tie, he would surely speak English, wouldn’t he Unfortunately, he couldn’t understand me but seemed very friendly. I showed him the room card with all the information of the Friendship Hotel in Chinese characters (汉字). He looked at it, and then his eyes moved quickly to the carriage (车厢) subway map. Next, he raised three fingers of his right hand.
In Australia, raising fingers at someone is not usually nice, but this man wasn’t smiling. At the next station he showed me two fingers. Now in Australia, that’s really rude, but I got the message. When we stopped at the third station, he didn’t just point to the door, but got up, took me out of the train, and led me to the top of the stairs, and out onto the street. Then he stopped a taxi and told the driver where to take me.
All this came from a man who couldn’t speak my language, and I couldn’t speak his. I was now speechless, especially when he refused my offer of money. I felt a little embarrassed having even thought he would accept a tip.
This experience made it clear I had to learn some Chinese quickly or my adventures might start turning into misadventures.

Children spend more time messaging each other on phones and websites than talking in Person, a survey has revealed. Text messages and social networking sites have become the common mode of youngsters aged 8 to 14.
A survey of modem childhood found that many youngsters are conscious that they are spending too much time on their computers and enjoy themselves the most when playing outside. But the lure of electronic products proves too strong for a quarter, while a fifth say their parents don’t like them playing outside because they are worried about strangers and injuries.
The “iGeneration report” suggested that youngsters are increasingly health-conscious and skeptical (特怀疑态度的) of commercialization, including gender-based labelling on toys and pop videos released by singers. More than half of those questioned care about eating healthily and one in 10 lectures their own parents about the food they are eating or buying, 42 percent of those questioned own a smart phone, with 36 percent admitting spending more time communicating with friends via instant messaging, such as texts or networking websites, than talking in person. Only one child in 100 said that being happy, having a loving family and being clever were taken as the most crucial (决定性的) elements in their lives.
Cary Cooper the professor of organizational psychology and health at Lancaster University, said social media were contributing to youngsters becoming more independent. They had a sense of individuality due to exposure to a range of media.
The survey follows major state backed research which found that youngsters are turning their back on drink, drugs and smoking. It found a dramatic drop in the number of secondary school students trying and regularly using drugs, alcohol and tobacco. Some analysts said that thanks to the rise of social media, millions of teenagers are spending their time at home in their rooms rather than out on the streets.
8. Why can’t 25 percent of the children get away from electronic products
A. They are not allowed to hang out long.
B. They are protected from strangers and injuries.
C. They enjoy themselves most when playing outside.
D. They can’t resist the temptation of the products.
9. The survey of modem childhood found that many youngsters .
A. are fans of the pop videos released by singers
B. message each other more rather than chat in person
C. are doubtful about possessing the latest smart phones
D. pay no attention to their lifestyle nowadays
10. The attitude of Cary Cooper towards social media is .
A. objective B. negative
C. supportive D. unclear
11. The last paragraph is written to show .
A. the benefits of social media
B. the drop of taking drugs in youngsters
C. the exposure to a range of media
D. youngsters are becoming more conscious
D
About 15 years ago, when my children were still in elementary school, I was very active in the Parent Teacher Association. At one of the monthly meetings the topic of discussion was the new curriculum (课程) that the state of Michigan was presenting. Many concerns were voiced at that meeting, and one of them was my own. My concern was that the children were being taught things that were once taught at a much later age.
Let’s face it: children today have to learn and adapt to a more technological society, one where if you’re not a peak performer you’re just not well received. Some say that the children of today have it so much easier than 10—20 years ago. They’re given so much more, not having to work for their toys and little extras. They sit all day long in front of a computer playing games… How hard can that be
I, for one, think that today’s child is missing out on so many wonderful experiences because of technology. What type of people skills are they learning They can thumb type faster than any other generation before them, but they can’t pick up the phone and have a really deep conversation.
There is an elementary school not far behind my home and I used to see children on the playground every day. Weekdays and weekends, there would be children playing, shouting with joy. But now I don’t see many children there after school, nor on the weekend. Has the playground gone from our children’s life
I know many teachers, some of whom are my friends, may throw a shoe at me when I say play doesn’t always need to have a purpose. And it doesn’t always have to have a teaching module included. To compete in today’s world, the children have to be experts at multitasking, and on top of their game at all times. I, for one, think this is a shame.
12. Why was the author concerned
A. The children didn’t learn much at school.
B. The parents’ opinions were not valued by schools.
C. The new curriculum was too advanced for the children.
D. The children were not interested in the new curriculum.
13. What should children learn according to the author
A. How to adapt to a technological society. B. How to communicate with others.
C. How to work for toys and extras. D. How to make a telephone call.
14. Which of the following would the author agree with
A. Children’s play should be well designed.
B Play and learning should go hand in hand.
C. The multitasking ability is more important than play.
D. Children should be allowed to play purposelessly.
15. What does the underlined part “throw a shoe at” mean in the last paragraph
A Disagree with. B. Laugh at. C. Accept. D. Hit.

阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Realizing your dreams is not a matter of possibility; it’s a matter of motivating yourself to focus on the right things. You know you should be doing something, but sometimes you just don’t feel like doing anything.____16____Here are some daily motivation tricks that might work for you.
This is by far the most important tip in this article. Sit down and get a move on! Reading more about motivation won’t help. Reviewing your to-do lists won’t help.____17____So stop thinking about how hard the task is going to be or how long it’s going to take you. Tell yourself, “As soon as I get going, I’ll feel more motivated.”
____18____You have the choice to replace negative self-talk with a more encouraging and friendly voice. A voice that does not look at the possibility of success before taking action, but rather uses self-belief as its driving force. A voice that all things are possible to those who commit to their dream.
Think about how far you have come. You have made so much progress, you just don’t realize it. Open your eyes and give yourself credit for all that you have done. Think about it. Write down your past successes..____19____You’ll probably be pleasantly surprised when you review your results. Accept failure as a positive learning experience and judge unsuccessful work and mistakes as part of the growth process. When times get tough, take a deep breath, and know that most great things come when you least expect it. Being defeated is a temporary (暂时的) condition; giving up is what makes it permanent (永久的).____20____Push through!
A. Do you feel the push-back of laziness
B. Only doing helps get everything going.
C. Be aware of your self-talk and stay confident.
D. This discouraging situation can last a long time if you don’t take action.
E. Daily motivation tricks help you to realize your dreams.
F. Consider using a diary to keep track of them.
G. And most people that gave up didn’t realize how close they were to success.

After I made it to the city center, I started to feel it might be easy for a foreigner to deal with the great size of Beijing. With growing confidence, I decided to take the subway to the hotel, not realizing that the network didn’t go that far. Impressed with the cleanliness of the station, I bought a ticket and boarded the first subway that came along.
After a few minutes I asked in English a young man seated next to me where I should get off closest to the Friendship Hotel. Wearing a smart business suit and tie, he would surely speak English, wouldn’t he Unfortunately, he couldn’t understand me but seemed very friendly. I showed him the room card with all the information of the Friendship Hotel in Chinese characters (汉字). He looked at it, and then his eyes moved quickly to the carriage (车厢) subway map. Next, he raised three fingers of his right hand.
In Australia, raising fingers at someone is not usually nice, but this man wasn’t smiling. At the next station he showed me two fingers. Now in Australia, that’s really rude, but I got the message. When we stopped at the third station, he didn’t just point to the door, but got up, took me out of the train, and led me to the top of the stairs, and out onto the street. Then he stopped a taxi and told the driver where to take me.
All this came from a man who couldn’t speak my language, and I couldn’t speak his. I was now speechless, especially when he refused my offer of money. I felt a little embarrassed having even thought he would accept a tip.
This experience made it clear I had to learn some Chinese quickly or my adventures might start turning into misadventures.

Children spend more time messaging each other on phones and websites than talking in Person, a survey has revealed. Text messages and social networking sites have become the common mode of youngsters aged 8 to 14.
A survey of modem childhood found that many youngsters are conscious that they are spending too much time on their computers and enjoy themselves the most when playing outside. But the lure of electronic products proves too strong for a quarter, while a fifth say their parents don’t like them playing outside because they are worried about strangers and injuries.
The “iGeneration report” suggested that youngsters are increasingly health-conscious and skeptical (特怀疑态度的) of commercialization, including gender-based labelling on toys and pop videos released by singers. More than half of those questioned care about eating healthily and one in 10 lectures their own parents about the food they are eating or buying, 42 percent of those questioned own a smart phone, with 36 percent admitting spending more time communicating with friends via instant messaging, such as texts or networking websites, than talking in person. Only one child in 100 said that being happy, having a loving family and being clever were taken as the most crucial (决定性的) elements in their lives.
Cary Cooper, the professor of organizational psychology and health at Lancaster University, said social media were contributing to youngsters becoming more independent. They had a sense of individuality due to exposure to a range of media.
The survey follows major state backed research which found that youngsters are turning their back on drink, drugs and smoking. It found a dramatic drop in the number of secondary school students trying and regularly using drugs, alcohol and tobacco. Some analysts said that thanks to the rise of social media, millions of teenagers are spending their time at home in their rooms rather than out on the streets.
8. Why can’t 25 percent of the children get away from electronic products
A. They are not allowed to hang out long.
B. They are protected from strangers and injuries.
C. They enjoy themselves most when playing outside.
D. They can’t resist the temptation of the products.
9. The survey of modem childhood found that many youngsters .
A. are fans of the pop videos released by singers
B. message each other more rather than chat in person
C. are doubtful about possessing the latest smart phones
D. pay no attention to their lifestyle nowadays
10. The attitude of Cary Cooper towards social media is .
A. objective B. negative
C. supportive D. unclear
11. The last paragraph is written to show .
A. the benefits of social media
B. the drop of taking drugs in youngsters
C. the exposure to a range of media
D. youngsters are becoming more conscious
【答案】8. D 9. B 10. C 11. A
【解析】
【分析】本文是说明文。介绍了社交媒体对青少年的影响以及它的好处。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段最后一句中But the lure of electronic products proves too strong for a quarter,可知,25%的孩子抵制不了电子产品的诱惑。故选D。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中with 36 percent admitting spending more time communicating with friends via instant messaging, such as texts or networking websites, than talking in person.可知,对现代孩子的调查表明很多年轻人互发信息而不是亲自聊天。故选B。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据倒数第二段Cary Cooper, the professor of organizational psychology and health at Lancaster University, said social media were contributing to youngsters becoming more independent. They had a sense of individuality due to exposure to a range of media.可知,Cary Cooper认为社交媒体让年轻人变得更加独立,让他们有了个性意识。由此可见Cary Cooper对社交媒体是支持的。故选C。
【11题详解】

About 15 years ago, when my children were still in elementary school, I was very active in the Parent Teacher Association. At one of the monthly meetings the topic of discussion was the new curriculum (课程) that the state of Michigan was presenting. Many concerns were voiced at that meeting, and one of them was my own. My concern was that the children were being taught things that were once taught at a much later age.
Let’s face it: children today have to learn and adapt to a more technological society, one where if you’re not a peak performer you’re just not well received. Some say that the children of today have it so much easier than 10—20 years ago. They’re given so much more, not having to work for their toys and little extras. They sit all day long in front of a computer playing games… How hard can that be
I, for one, think that today’s child is missing out on so many wonderful experiences because of technology. What type of people skills are they learning They can thumb type faster than any other generation before them, but they can’t pick up the phone and have a really deep conversation.
There is an elementary school not far behind my home and I used to see children on the playground every day. Weekdays and weekends, there would be children playing, shouting with joy. But now I don’t see many children there after school, nor on the weekend. Has the playground gone from our children’s life
I know many teachers, some of whom are my friends, may throw a shoe at me when I say play doesn’t always need to have a purpose. And it doesn’t always have to have a teaching module included. To compete in today’s world, the children have to be experts at multitasking, and on top of their game at all times. I, for one, think this is a shame.
12. Why was the author concerned
A. The children didn’t learn much at school.
B. The parents’ opinions were not valued by schools.
C. The new curriculum was too advanced for the children.
D. The children were not interested in the new curriculum.
13. What should children learn according to the author
A. How to adapt to a technological society. B. How to communicate with others.
C. How to work for toys and extras. D. How to make a telephone call.
14. Which of the following would the author agree with
A. Children’s play should be well designed.
B. Play and learning should go hand in hand.
C. The multitasking ability is more important than play.
D. Children should be allowed to play purposelessly.
15. What does the underlined part “throw a shoe at” mean in the last paragraph
A. Disagree with. B. Laugh at. C. Accept. D. Hit.
【答案】12. C 13. B 14. D 15. A
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇议论文。文章讲述了,现在的孩子生活富足,却缺少适当的体育锻炼和玩耍,沉迷于科技,却缺少跟人交流的能力,作者通过本文呼吁还给孩子真正的童年。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。由第一段中的“At one of the monthly meetings the topic of discussion was the new curriculum (课程) that the state of Michigan was presenting. Many concerns were voiced at that meeting, and one of them was my own. My concern was that the children were being taught things that were once taught at a much later age. (在其中一次月会上,讨论的主题是密歇根州提出的新课程。在那次会议上表达了许多关切,其中就有我自己的关切。我担心的是,孩子们正在学习的东西,曾经是在很晚的年龄才学会的东西)”可知,作者认为学校引进的课程超出了孩子的水平(该课程应该是孩子大些才能学习的课程),这是作者感到担忧的事情。故选C项。
【13题详解】
推理判断题。由第三段中的“What type of people skills are they learning They can thumb type faster than any other generation before them, but they can’t pick up the phone and have a really deep conversation. (他们在学习什么类型的人际交往技能?他们打字的速度比他们之前的任何一代人都快,但他们无法拿起电话进行真正深入的交谈)”可知,当今孩子沉湎于电子科技,缺乏与人交流的能力,可得出作者认为孩子们应该学会如何与他人沟通。故选B项。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。由最后一段中的“I know many teachers, some of whom are my friends, may throw a shoe at me when I say play doesn’t always need to have a purpose. And it doesn’t always have to have a teaching module included. To compete in today’s world, the children have to be experts at multitasking, and on top of their game at all times. I, for one, think this is a shame. (我知道很多老师,其中一些是我的朋友,当我说游戏并不总是有目的的时候,他们可能会向我扔鞋。而且它并不总是需要包含一个教学模块。要想在当今世界竞争,孩子们必须是多任务处理方面的专家,并且在任何时候都处于游戏的顶端。对此,我认为这是一种耻辱)”可知,在学校里玩耍都是跟教学任务联系在一起的,作者认为游戏必须有目的,必须包含教学模块,孩子必须在游戏中获胜,这种观点是错误的,作者认为游戏并不总是有目的,可得出作者希望允许孩子们无目的地玩耍。故选D项。
【15题详解】
词句猜测题。由最后一段中的“I know many teachers, some of whom are my friends, may throw a shoe at me when I say play doesn’t always need to have a purpose. And it doesn’t always have to have a teaching module included. To compete in today’s world, the children have to be experts at multitasking, and on top of their game at all times. I, for one, think this is a shame. (我知道很多老师,其中一些是我的朋友,当我说游戏并不总是有目的的时候,他们可能会向我throw a shoe at。而且它并不总是需要包含一个教学模块。要想在当今世界竞争,孩子们必须是多任务处理方面的专家,并且在任何时候都处于游戏的顶端。对此,我认为这是一种耻辱)”可知,在学校里玩耍都是跟教学任务联系在一起的,作者认为游戏必须有目的,必须包含教学模块,孩子必须在游戏中获胜,这种观点是一种耻辱,说明作者不赞同这种观点,因此作者提出孩子应该进行没有目的性的玩耍,很多老师一定会“不赞成”她的观点,throw a shoe at在此处意为“不赞成(Disagree with)”。故选A项。
第二节(共5小题;共 5 小题:每小题 2.5 分,满分12.5 分)
阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Realizing your dreams is not a matter of possibility; it’s a matter of motivating yourself to focus on the right things. You know you should be doing something, but sometimes you just don’t feel like doing anything.____16____Here are some daily motivation tricks that might work for you.
This is by far the most important tip in this article. Sit down and get a move on! Reading more about motivation won’t help. Reviewing your to-do lists won’t help.____17____So stop thinking about how hard the task is going to be or how long it’s going to take you. Tell yourself, “As soon as I get going, I’ll feel more motivated.”
____18____You have the choice to replace negative self-talk with a more encouraging and friendly voice. A voice that does not look at the possibility of success before taking action, but rather uses self-belief as its driving force. A voice that all things are possible to those who commit to their dream.
Think about how far you have come. You have made so much progress, you just don’t realize it. Open your eyes and give yourself credit for all that you have done. Think about it. Write down your past successes..____19____You’ll probably be pleasantly surprised when you review your results. Accept failure as a positive learning experience and judge unsuccessful work and mistakes as part of the growth process. When times get tough, take a deep breath, and know that most great things come when you least expect it. Being defeated is a temporary (暂时的) condition; giving up is what makes it permanent (永久的).____20____Push through!
A. Do you feel the push-back of laziness
B. Only doing helps get everything going.
C. Be aware of your self-talk and stay confident.
D. This discouraging situation can last a long time if you don’t take action.
E. Daily motivation tricks help you to realize your dreams.
F. Consider using a diary to keep track of them.
G. And most people that gave up didn’t realize how close they were to success.
【答案】16. D 17. B 18. C 19. F 20. G
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一些日常激励技巧,可以用来帮助你实现梦想。
【16题详解】
由上文“Realizing your dreams is not a matter of possibility; it's a matter of motivating yourself to focus on the right things. You know you should be doing something, but sometimes you just don 't feel like doing anything. (实现你的梦想不是一个可能性问题,这是一个激励你自己去关注正确事情的问题。你知道你应该做点什么,但有时你就是不想做任何事)”和下文“Here are some daily motivation tricks that might work for you. (下面是一些可能对你有用的日常激励技巧)”可知,上文提到想实现梦想但就是任何事都不想做,即不采取行动,故本句承接上文说明这一行为造成的影响,上文中“don t feel like doing anything”与D选项中“don 't take action”相对应,D选项“如果你不采取行动,这种令人沮丧的情况可能会持续很长时间。”切题,并且引出下文的用来帮助你实现梦想的日常激励技巧。故选D项。
【17题详解】
由上文“Sit down and get a move on! Reading more about motivation won't help. Reviewing your to-do lists won't help. (坐下来,开始行动吧!多读些关于激励的书是没有用的。回顾你的待办事项清单是没有用的)”和下文“So stop thinking about how hard the task is going to be or how long it’s going to take you. Tell yourself, “As soon as I get going, I’ll feel more motivated.” (所以不要再去想这个任务到底有多难,或者要花多长时间。告诉自己:“只要我开始行动,我就会感到更有动力。”)”可知,作者建议要行动起来,上文列举了对实现梦想没有用的事情,后文又提到了要开始行动,故本句应当是说明行动才是真正能起作用的事情,B选项“只有行动才能让一切顺利。”切题。故选B项。
【18题详解】
由下文“You have the choice to replace negative self-talk with a more encouraging and friendly voice. A voice that does not look at the possibility of success before taking action, but rather uses self-belief as its driving force. A voice that all things are possible to those who commit to their dream. (可以选择用一种更鼓励和友好的声音来代替消极的自我对话。一个在采取行动前不考虑成功可能性的声音,而是以自信为动力的声音。这是一个声音,告诉那些致力于梦想的人一切皆有可能)”可知,本段主要是在说明自我对话和保持自信对实现梦想的重要性,下文中“self-talk”和“self-belief”可与C选项中“self-talk”和“confident”相对应。C选项“注意你的自言自语,保持自信。”切题。故选C项。
【19题详解】
由上文“Think about it. Write down your past successes. (想一想。写下你过去的成功)”可知,本句承接上文继续说明用什么方式来记录下自己的成功,上文中“past successes”与F选项中的“them”相对应,F选项“考虑使用日记来记录它们。”切题。故选F项。
【20题详解】
由上文“Accept failure as a positive learning experience and judge unsuccessful work and mistakes as part of the growth process. When times get tough, take a deep breath, and know that most great things come when you least expect it. Being defeated is a temporary condition; giving up is what makes it permanent. (将失败视为一种积极的学习经验,将不成功的工作和错误视为成长过程的一部分。当生活变得艰难的时候,深呼吸,要知道大多数伟大的事情都是在你最意外的时候出现的。被打败是暂时的,放弃是永恒的)”和下文“Push through! (推过去!)”可知,本句为本段结尾部分,上文提到成功总在最不经意的时候出现,成功过程中的失败是暂时的,但放弃是永恒的,可得出该空应承接上文讲放弃的后果,然后得出下文作者建议人们“Push through!(暗指不要放弃)”的建议,且上文中“giving up”可与G选项中“most people that gave up”相对应,G选项“大多数放弃的人没有意识到他们离成功有多近。”切题。故选G项。

第二节(共10小题;每小题1.5分,满分15分)
阅读下面短文,在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。
Did you grow up in one culture, your parents came from another, and you are now living in a ___51___ (total) different country If so, then you are a third-culture kid.
The term “third—culture kid” ____52____ (use) in the 1960s for the first time by Dr. Ruth. She first came across this phenomenon while ___53___ (research) North American children living in India.

【答案】51. totally
52. was used
53. researching
54. their 55. difficulties
56. to 57. to develop
58. than 59. where
60 or
【解析】
【分析】这篇文章主要讲述了“第三文化的孩子们”这个术语的出现背景以及“第三文化的孩子们”的学习及心理现状。
【51题详解】
考查副词。修饰形容词different,用副词,所以填totally。
【52题详解】
考查时态和语态。表示发生在过去的事情,用一般过去时。The term “third—culture kid”与use之间是被动关系,用被动语态,综上所述,应该使用一般过去时的被动语态,所以填was used。
【53题详解】
考查非谓语动词。research与其逻辑主语She之间是主动关系,所以用现在分词,填researching。
【54题详解】
考查代词。一般而言,“第三文化的孩子们”受益于他们的不同文化体验表示“他们的”,所以填their。
【55题详解】
考查名词单复数。many修饰可数名词的复数形式,所以填difficulties。
【56题详解】
考查固定短语。 “第三文化的孩子们”可能不能让他们自己完全适用于他们新的环境。adapt oneself to使自己适应,是固定短语,所以填to。
【57题详解】
考查不定式。这里it是形式宾语,不定式是真正的宾语,所以填to develop。
【58题详解】
考查语义理解。此外,对于一个“第三文化的孩子"来说,搬到其他国家比回到他们的祖国更容易。这里表示比较,所以填than。
【59题详解】
考查定语从句。____9____ she was born.是一个定语从句,关系词在从句中作地点状语,所以用关系副词where。
【60题详解】
考查连词。她不知道任何关于当前的电视节目或者流行趋势。表示“或者”,所以填or。
