A man in Brisbane, Australia, survived a house fire early Wednesday morning because his pet parrot, named Eric, sounded the alarm.
Anton was asleep when his home caught fire just after 2:00 a.m., according to the Australian Broadcasting Corporation (ABC). Anton didn’t hear the smoke detector(探测器). Instead, he heard Eric calling his name repeatedly, ABC reported. “I heard a bang and Eric — my parrot— he started to yell so I woke up and I smelled a bit of smoke,” Anton told ABC. “I grabbed Eric, opened the door and looked to the back of the house and saw some flames,” he added. “And so I grabbed my bag and bolted downstairs.” Officials told ABC that Anton’s home did have a smoke detector, but it didn’t go off before Eric started calling “Anton! Anton!” Queensland Fire and Emergency Services Acting Inspector Cam Thomas told ABC that the firemen were able to contain the fire before it spread to other properties(财产).
According to ABC, there may be a crime(犯罪)and policemen are looking into what caused the fire. In the meantime, Anton is glad that he and Eric survived. “I’m in shock but I’m fine,” he told ABC. “Everything’s all right so long as I have myself and the bird.”
5. What is the right order of the following
a. Anton saw some flames.
b. Anton heard Eric calling his name.
c. Anton bolted downstairs.
d. Anton’s house caught fire at midnight.
e. Anton woke up and smelled the smoke.

Being physically fit at age 18 is linked to a higher IQ, a new study finds. The researchers also show that fitness predicts greater educational and professional achievements later in life. Earlier studies have found links between physical fitness and intelligence(智力)in animals, children and older adults. But the relationship in young adults hasn’t been clear.
In the new study, researchers used data(数据)to examine over 1.2 million young men born in Sweden between 1950 and 1976. All the men had their physical fitness and intelligence assessed(评估) at age 18. The researchers compared this information to details of later achievements in academic(学术), social and economic aspects from other national databases and made some findings.
Fitness in the 18-year-olds was strongly linked to scores on intelligence tests. “Being fit means that you have good heart and lung capacity and that your brain gets plenty of oxygen, ’’ says Dr. Michael Nilsson of the University of Gothenburg. “This may be one of the reasons why we can see a clear link with fitness.” The researchers also found that fit teens were more likely to get a university degree later in life. Fitness at age 18 was also linked to landing better jobs, with Higher pay or management responsibilities.
The findings point to the importance of encouraging physical fitness in teens. “If so, physical education is a subject that has an important place in schools,” says Dr. Maria Aberg of the University of Gothernburg.
8. What is the new study about
A. The relationship among young adults.
B. IQ differences between children and adults.
C. Educational and professional achievements.
D. Teenagers’s physical health and intelligence.
9. How did the researchers make the findings
A. By comparing data. B. By using earlier studies.
C. By giving intelligence tests. D. By interviewing young men.
10 What do the findings of the research suggest
A. Similar researches should be made.
B. Jobs with higher pay are hard to get.
C. It’s time to improve teenagers’ intelligence.
D. Physical education should be stressed in schools.

47. 阅读下面短文，根据所给情节进行续写，使之构成一个完整的故事。
One Saturday afternoon, I was watching TV in the living room with my grandpa when a blinding flash of lightning flashed across the sky, followed by a deafening sound, and the pictures on TV disappeared with that sound. Before I realized what had happened, a gray-white shadow rushed in through the open window and flew over my head. Bang! It hit the wall and slid off to the floor. Shaking with fear, I approached it cautiously and saw that it was a pigeon（鸽子）. It looked at me in fear, trying to open its wings and struggling its feet, but apparently powerless.
So I called my grandpa and immediately set out to give it a helping hand. Taking it in my hands, I felt a few drops of warmth on my hands. It was blood! I gently spread its wings and there were a few red feathers inside. "Don't worry. We'll get it out alive," Grandpa said to me. Then he got the first-aid kit. With some cotton, we dried the blood, cleaned the wound and then put it under a hairdryer to dry. All went smoothly, for the pigeon had no strength left to resist. There happened to be an empty birdcage at home, so I put it in gently and added a little water and some grains.
For the next few days, the moment I got home from school, I would run to feed the pigeon. And Grandpa helped a lot, tidying up the cage daily. Little by little, its strength returned. One evening, I fed it with the biscuit I was eating. It enjoyed it! One week later, its wound almost healed; its feathers grew and it became brave. Whenever I sat at the table eating biscuits, it looked up at me, cooing（咕咕地叫） constantly. To my joy, I could also reach into the cage to touch it. When I gently fingered its head, it playfully pecked at me. Finally it completely recovered. But every time I was with it, it seemed restless in the cage. To make it happy and pretty, I tied an orange string around its leg.

A man in Brisbane, Australia, survived a house fire early Wednesday morning because his pet parrot, named Eric, sounded the alarm.
Anton was asleep when his home caught fire just after 2:00 a.m., according to the Australian Broadcasting Corporation (ABC). Anton didn’t hear the smoke detector(探测器). Instead, he heard Eric calling his name repeatedly, ABC reported. “I heard a bang and Eric — my parrot— he started to yell so I woke up and I smelled a bit of smoke,” Anton told ABC. “I grabbed Eric, opened the door and looked to the back of the house and saw some flames,” he added. “And so I grabbed my bag and bolted downstairs.” Officials told ABC that Anton’s home did have a smoke detector, but it didn’t go off before Eric started calling “Anton! Anton!” Queensland Fire and Emergency Services Acting Inspector Cam Thomas told ABC that the firemen were able to contain the fire before it spread to other properties(财产).
According to ABC, there may be a crime(犯罪)and policemen are looking into what caused the fire. In the meantime, Anton is glad that he and Eric survived. “I’m in shock but I’m fine,” he told ABC. “Everything’s all right so long as I have myself and the bird.”

Being physically fit at age 18 is linked to a higher IQ, a new study finds. The researchers also show that fitness predicts greater educational and professional achievements later in life. Earlier studies have found links between physical fitness and intelligence(智力)in animals, children and older adults. But the relationship in young adults hasn’t been clear.
In the new study, researchers used data(数据)to examine over 1.2 million young men born in Sweden between 1950 and 1976. All the men had their physical fitness and intelligence assessed(评估) at age 18. The researchers compared this information to details of later achievements in academic(学术), social and economic aspects from other national databases and made some findings.
Fitness in the 18-year-olds was strongly linked to scores on intelligence tests. “Being fit means that you have good heart and lung capacity and that your brain gets plenty of oxygen, ’’ says Dr. Michael Nilsson of the University of Gothenburg. “This may be one of the reasons why we can see a clear link with fitness.” The researchers also found that fit teens were more likely to get a university degree later in life. Fitness at age 18 was also linked to landing better jobs, with Higher pay or management responsibilities.
The findings point to the importance of encouraging physical fitness in teens. “If so, physical education is a subject that has an important place in schools,” says Dr. Maria Aberg of the University of Gothernburg.
8. What is the new study about
A. The relationship among young adults.
B. IQ differences between children and adults.
C. Educational and professional achievements.
D. Teenagers’s physical health and intelligence.
9. How did the researchers make the findings
A. By comparing data. B. By using earlier studies.
C. By giving intelligence tests. D. By interviewing young men.
10. What do the findings of the research suggest
A. Similar researches should be made.
B. Jobs with higher pay are hard to get.
C. It’s time to improve teenagers’ intelligence.
D. Physical education should be stressed in schools.
【答案】8. D 9. A 10. D
【解析】

【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“Being physically fit at age 18 is linked to a higher IQ, a new study finds. The researchers also show that fitness predicts greater educational and professional achievements later in life.( 一项新研究发现，18岁时身体健康与高智商有关。研究人员还表明，18岁时身体健康预示着未来在教育和职业上取得更大的成就。)”可知，这项新研究的内容为青少年的身体健康和智力之间的关系，故选D。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“In the new study, researchers used data(数据)to examine over 1.2 million young men born in Sweden between 1950 and 1976(在这项新研究中，研究人员使用数据对超过120万名1950年至1976年出生在瑞典的年轻男性进行了调查).”可知，研究者们通过比较数据得出了这些发现，故选A。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“The findings point to the importance of encouraging physical fitness in teens. “If so, physical education is a subject that has an important place in schools,” says Dr. Maria Aberg of the University of Gothernburg.( 研究结果指出了鼓励青少年健身的重要性。“如果是这样的话，体育课在学校里应是一个很重要的学科，”哥德堡大学的玛丽亚·阿伯格博士说。)”可知，这项研究的结果指出了鼓励青少年健身的重要性，因此学校应该重视体育教育。故选D。

【分析】这是一篇说明文。说明了穿校服这一做法不错的原因和在英国的现状。
【36题详解】
考查动词时态。句意：如果学校里的每个学生都穿校服，没有人要担心时尚问题。考查由if引导的条件状语从句的主句时态问题，含有if 真实条件句时，主句可以使用一般现在时，也可以使用一般将来时。故此处可以填has或will have。
【37题详解】
考查冠词。句意：每个人都穿着同一风格的衣服。根据句意, 特指“同一种”the same，故此处填入定冠词the。
【38题详解】

【39题详解】
考查疑问词。句意：当同学们在黑暗的早晨走路或者骑车上学时/ 同学们在黑暗的早晨无论是走路还是骑车上学，司机们容易看见他们。此处可作两种意思解，根据句意此处缺少引导状语从句的连接词，即填入When/Whether。

【42题详解】

考查非谓语动词。句意：但是一些学生不想穿校服，认为校服丑。逗号后部分为非谓语动词充当原因状语，students与动词think之间存在主动关系，用现在分词形式thinking。故填入动词think的现在分词形式thinking。
【44题详解】
考查名词。句意：其他美国的研究表明校服与学生表现没有关联。该空作宾语，用名词。名词connection表示两者之间的关联/关系，既可以用名词的单数也可以用名词的复数形式，所以此处填入connection(s)。
【45题详解】
考查形容词。句意：校服在英国是传统的。系动词后面加形容词作表语构成系表结构，此处将名词tradition改为形容词traditional，故此处填入形容词traditional。

【答案】Dear Tony,
I'm sorry to hear that you feel it difficult to accustom yourself to new school life in America. As your best friend, I'd like to give you some suggestions.
First of all, learning English well is a must. Only when you speak fluent English can you find more opportunities to communicate with others. Secondly, you'd better learn to study independently. Meanwhile, never hesitate to turn to your teachers for help when you are in trouble. What's more, try to make more friends and take an active part in various activities organized by your school, which will not only help you remove your loneliness but also make your life more interesting. Of course, sometimes reading interesting books can also give you great fun.
What do you think of my advice Believe in yourself and you will enjoy your new school life there soon.
Yours,
Li Hua

第二节 读后续写（满分25分）
47. 阅读下面短文，根据所给情节进行续写，使之构成一个完整的故事。
One Saturday afternoon, I was watching TV in the living room with my grandpa when a blinding flash of lightning flashed across the sky, followed by a deafening sound, and the pictures on TV disappeared with that sound. Before I realized what had happened, a gray-white shadow rushed in through the open window and flew over my head. Bang! It hit the wall and slid off to the floor. Shaking with fear, I approached it cautiously and saw that it was a pigeon（鸽子）. It looked at me in fear, trying to open its wings and struggling its feet, but apparently powerless.
So I called my grandpa and immediately set out to give it a helping hand. Taking it in my hands, I felt a few drops of warmth on my hands. It was blood! I gently spread its wings and there were a few red feathers inside. "Don't worry. We'll get it out alive," Grandpa said to me. Then he got the first-aid kit. With some cotton, we dried the blood, cleaned the wound and then put it under a hairdryer to dry. All went smoothly, for the pigeon had no strength left to resist. There happened to be an empty birdcage at home, so I put it in gently and added a little water and some grains.
For the next few days, the moment I got home from school, I would run to feed the pigeon. And Grandpa helped a lot, tidying up the cage daily. Little by little, its strength returned. One evening, I fed it with the biscuit I was eating. It enjoyed it! One week later, its wound almost healed; its feathers grew and it became brave. Whenever I sat at the table eating biscuits, it looked up at me, cooing（咕咕地叫） constantly. To my joy, I could also reach into the cage to touch it. When I gently fingered its head, it playfully pecked at me. Finally it completely recovered. But every time I was with it, it seemed restless in the cage. To make it happy and pretty, I tied an orange string around its leg.
注意：

2. 应使用5个以上短文中标有下划线的关键词语；
3. 续写部分分为两段，每段的开头语已为你写好；

One day, however, when I returned home, Grandpa met me at the door, looking embarrassed.

【答案】One possible version:
One day, however, when I returned home, Grandpa met me at the door, looking embarrassed. I asked him what had happened. He turned around and pointed to the birdcage, apologizing to me that the pigeon slid out when he was tidying up the cage and flew away through the open window. Gone! I couldn't believe my ears. I rushed over to the birdcage. Just empty! I stared at the remaining water and grains, tears streaming down my cheeks. "Where has it gone Will it be hurt again Will it come back ..." I asked Grandpa, sobbing. "It will fly back!" he convinced me, wiping away my tears gently.
Sure enough, I saw a pigeon flying into the house the next afternoon. It perched near the birdcage, cooing. Despite great excitement, I approached it quietly. It was gray-white and had an orange string tied to one leg. My pigeon came back! "It must be hungry," Grandpa grinned. Immediately, I fed it with grains and then tiptoed to the window and closed it, urging Grandpa to cage it. But he didn't. "Pigeons need freedom," he explained to me patiently. I was hesitant but looking at the pigeon wandering and pecking at the grains peacefully. I realized Grandpa was right! I turned back to the window and opened it.
