Christopher Thomas, 27, was a writer by night and a teacher by day when he noticed he was always tired and was losing weight fast. Diagnosed with diabetes(糖尿病), Thomas would need to inject himself with insulin(胰岛素)three times a day for the rest of his life or risk nerve damage, blindness, and even death. And if those weren't bad enough, he had no health insurance.
After a month of feeling upset, Thomas decided he'd better find a way to fight back. He left Canton, Michigan for New York, got a job to wait tables, nicknamed himself the Diabetic Rockstar, and created , a free online community for diabetics and their loved ones—a place where over 1,100 people share personal stories, information, and resources.
Jason Swencki's son Kody, was diagnosed with type diabetes at six. The father and son visit the online children's forums together most evenings. “Kody gets so excited, writing to kids from all over the world,” says Swencki, one of the site's volunteers. “They know what he's going through, so he doesn't feel alone.”
Kody is anything but alone: Diabetes is now the seventh leading cause of death in the United States, with 24 million diagnosed cases. And more people are being diagnosed at younger ages.
These days, Thomas's main focus is his charity, Fight It, which provides medicines and supplies for people—225 to date—who can't afford a diabetic's huge expenses. Fight It has raised about $23,000—in products and in cash. In May, Thomas will hold the first annual Diabetic Rockstar Festival in the Caribbean.
Even with a staff of 22 volunteers, Thomas often devotes up to 50 hours a week to his cause, while still doing his full-time job to wait tables.“Of the diabetes charities out there, most are putting money into finding a cure,” says Bentley Gubar, one of Rockstar's original members. “But Christopher is the only person I know to say people need help now.”

I love charity shops and so do lots of other people in Britain because you can find quite a few of them in every high street. The charity shop is a British institution, selling everything from clothes to electric goods, all at very good prices. You can get things you won't find in the shops anymore. The thing I like best about them is that your money is going to a good cause and not into the pockets of profit-driven companies, and you are not damaging the planet, but finding a new home for unwanted goods.
The first charity shop was opened in 1947 by Oxfam. The famous charity's appeal to aid postwar Greece had been so successful that it had been flooded with donations. They decided to set up a shop to sell some of these donations to raise money for that appeal. Now there are over 7,000 charity shops in the UK. My favourite charity shop in my hometown is the Red Cross shop, where I always find children's books, all 10 or 20 pence each.
Most of the people working in the charity shops are volunteers, though there is often a manager who gets paid. Over 90% of the goods in the charity shops are donated by the public. Every morning you see bags of unwanted items outside the front of shops, though they don't encourage this, but rather ask people to bring things in when the shops are open.
The shops have very low running costs: all profits go to charity work. Charity shops raise more than ￡110 million a year, funding medical research, overseas aid, supporting sick and poor children, homeless and disabled people, and much more. What better place to spend your money You get something special for a very good price and a good moral sense. You provide funds for a good cause and tread lightly on the environment.
8.The author loves the charity shop mainly because of .
A.its convenient location
B.its great variety of goods
C.its spirit of goodwill
D.its nice shopping environment
9.The first charity shop in the UK was set up to .
A.sell cheap products
B.deal with unwanted things
C.raise money for patients
D.help a foreign country
10.Which of the following is TRUE about charity shops
A.The operating costs are very low.
B.The staff are usually well paid.
C.90% of the donations are second-hand.
D.They are open twenty-four hours a day.
11.Which of the following may be the best title for the passage
A.What to Buy at Charity Shops
B.Charity Shop:Its Origin & Development
C.Charity Shop:Where You Buy to Donate
D.The Public's Concern about Charity Shops
D
Traffic jams are the horrible dreams of motorists' lives. If you think your journey is bad, spare a thought for drivers in Sao Paolo, Brazil—one evening in May last year, the traffic jams during the rush hour added up to a 344 km queue, according to the city's traffic management agency.
This isn't a new problem, of course. During the car boom of the 1960s, city planners had one seemingly obvious solution: build more and wider roads. But the more roads were created, the more cars they attracted. So what's the solution Some cities have adopted easy methods, like banning cars on certain days.
However, ending this horrible dream may need more of a complete rethink. A company, Urban Engines, has a slightly fresher method. “We're providing an online game that offers trip suggestions and prizes to encourage commuter behaviour changes, including changing travel from peak to off-peak times,” says Shiva Shivakumar, Urban Engines' co-founder and CEO. For the past two-and-a-half years, the company has conducted pilot studies in major cities, including Bangalore and Singapore City. In Bangalore, one in six of the people who took part in the trial started travelling off-peak, and in Singapore City one in eight.
But others think that this solution doesn't go far enough—and that we should provide more reasons for putting fewer cars on the road. “The only effective long-term solution is to improve alternative methods—walking, cycling and particularly high-quality public transport,” says Todd Litman of the Victoria Transport Policy Institute in Canada. Road pricing that charges motorists extra if they drive during the rush hour could also be an option. Cities like Singapore City, London and Stockholm have successfully used road pricing to control the steel river.
The solution to beating traffic jams in cities, if it comes, will probably take a long time to gain prizes. But if at least some of these new ideas are a success, the days of Sao Paolo's heavy traffic jams may finally become history.
12.What can we learn about the method of building wider roads
A.It results in the car boom.
B.It is far from satisfactory.
C.It needs to be further tested.
D.It is unlikely to be widely used.
13.What does Urban Engines do to deal with traffic jams
A.It charges commuters for travelling at peak times.
B.It changes its working time to avoid peak times.
C.It bans commuters from driving on certain days.
D.It offers prizes to those travelling at off-peak times.
14.What does the underlined part “the steel river” in Paragraph 4 refer to
A.The traffic flow.
B.The traffic light.
C.The public transport.
D.The crowd of people.
15.What can be the best title for the text
A.How do traffic jams form
B.Can we ever end traffic jams
C.Do traffic jams affect our life
D.Where is the most jammed city

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。
How to Make the World a Better Place
When you think about people who have made the world a better place, you probably think of famous scientists or great leaders. That is not all the truth. 16 An act of kindness can bring a smile to a person's face even if only for a moment.
Give away your money. 17 For example, if you want to help hungry children, you can try to find an international organization that provides food for those in poor areas. Every cent you give away will mean a lot.
Help a stranger. Your small actions can brighten the day of others. Hold the door for someone whose hands are full. Help the blind cross the street. 18 The key is expecting nothing in return for your acts of kindness.
Care about those you know. Show the people close to you how much you care about them. Tell them they mean a lot to you. Make a beautiful gift for a friend. Take your husband to his favourite fun place if he has had a hard week. 19
Be grateful to others. Have you had good service in a restaurant Thank the waiter. Do you have a very good neighbour who is always there when you need her Tell her how much you appreciate her being in your life.
20 If a friend needs skills in a certain area, offer your advice. Perhaps she is struggling to set up a computer, and you know how to do that. Offer whatever ability you have, but always remember to be polite.
A.Share your knowledge.
B.Keep walking forward.
C.Small steps, not big ones.
D.Give your seat on the bus to an old man.
E.Choose charity that has meaning for you.
F.Tell your children how much they mean to you.
G.Ordinary people like you and me can also help a lot.

Several days later, my mother 39 (drive) me to the store and gave me $20 to pay for a neighborhood present. Then she said, “I'll see you outside in the car.” She left me alone to do the shopping.

Suddenly, I remembered the poor boy 43 (call) Jack who lived in our neighborhood. I used to see him 44 a jacket during the freezing winter months, so I decided, then and there, to buy him a warm jacket.
I saw many jackets and 45 (final) chose a heavy blue one. That evening, I sent the present to him with my mom. Seeing the tears in his eyes, I felt as if I were a real “Neighborhood Angel”.

It was the middle of the day with the bright sun, blue sky, green grass, and a soft breeze (微风). It was a great day to play outside and the best day of my life because I got a new ball and a new bike as my sixth birthday presents, and I was visiting my cousin, Kristy, at her house.
“Here I go!” shouted David while kicking my new ball. David lived next door and was older than me. I thought he was a wild child, but he was actually very kind. The ball went flying as if it were going to space. “That was high!” Kristy said in surprise and we went after the ball. We all had a great time.
Later we had supper and the food my aunt made was good. While Kristy was helping do the dishes, David and I ran outside to play. We started taking turns riding my bike. David suggested that we ride it to the forest. And I agreed. David and I got on the bike and David started riding fast.
As we rode through the forest, I felt the wind brushing my face. It felt so great and free. Suddenly the bike hit a fallen branch and we went flying off the bike. Lying on the ground, I felt dizzy (眩晕的). I checked myself for injuries and saw some but they didn't upset me.
“David!” I shouted out anxiously.
“Hey,” said a voice. I turned my head and it was David, who was standing behind me, holding my broken bike. At the sight of my broken bike, I was so sad that I couldn't hold back my tears. It took David some time to calm me down.
注意:续写词数应为150左右。

It was completely dark when we saw fireworks (烟花) being set off in the distance.

23.A 她轻拍了(tapped)一下“我”的肩膀。hit打击;knock敲;strike打击,撞击。
24.B “我”告诉她“我”不能给她保证(promise)。disappoint使失望;comfort安慰;trust相信。

第二节
语篇解读 这是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者参加社区活动,给有需要的人送新年礼物的事情。
36.saying 考查非谓语动词。句意:一天,在我放学回家的路上,一位女士给了我一张纸,上面写着社区呼吁人们给那些有需要的人送新年礼物。主句中有谓语动词gave且句中无连词,故应用say的非谓语动词形式,paper与say之间为逻辑上的主动关系,故用say的现在分词saying。
37.who 考查定语从句。句意同上题。根据句意和句子结构可知,设空处引导限制性定语从句,先行词为those,指人,关系词指代先行词在从句中作主语,故应用关系代词who。

41.parents 考查名词的数。句意同上题。“one of+可数名词复数”意为“……中的一个”,句中指“父母中的一个”,故填parents。
42.but 考查连词。句意:对我来说,似乎一切都很奇怪,很令人困惑,但我还是继续下去了。根据句意可知,设空处前后之间为转折关系,故填but。
43.called 考查非谓语动词。句意:突然,我想起了住在我们社区的那个叫杰克的可怜的男孩。主句中有谓语动词remembered且句中无连词,故应用call的非谓语动词形式,boy和call之间为逻辑上的被动关系,故填called。
44.without 考查介词。句意:我过去常常看到他在寒冷的冬季的月份没有穿夹克,所以我当场决定给他买件暖和的夹克。由此可知,他在寒冷的冬季的月份没有穿夹克,故填without。
45.finally 考查词性转换。句意:我看了很多夹克,最后选了一件厚厚的、蓝色的。应用副词作状语。

第二节
One possible version:
Paragraph 1:
When we realized it was time to walk home, we found ourselves lost. It was getting darker and darker. I felt so scared that tears rolled down my face again. David tried to comfort me. He told me that he had once made some marks on the trees in the forest, which might help us find the way home. Therefore, we made efforts to look for the marks but failed. Having walked anxiously for about an hour in the forest, we didn't find our way out.
Paragraph 2:
It was completely dark when we saw fireworks (烟花) being set off in the distance. We ran excitedly in that direction as fast as possible. Soon we found my aunt's house, in front of which my cousin Kristy was holding some fireworks and lighting them. Seeing us come back safely, Kristy cheerfully hugged us. She told us that when noticing we had been away for long, she was concerned about our safety. She set off fireworks to draw our attention and guide us. It was an unforgettable experience. Without David's comfort and Kristy's fireworks, I would have lost in the forest forever.

Christopher Thomas, 27, was a writer by night and a teacher by day when he noticed he was always tired and was losing weight fast. Diagnosed with diabetes(糖尿病), Thomas would need to inject himself with insulin(胰岛素)three times a day for the rest of his life or risk nerve damage, blindness, and even death. And if those weren't bad enough, he had no health insurance.
After a month of feeling upset, Thomas decided he'd better find a way to fight back. He left Canton, Michigan for New York, got a job to wait tables, nicknamed himself the Diabetic Rockstar, and created , a free online community for diabetics and their loved ones—a place where over 1,100 people share personal stories, information, and resources.
Jason Swencki's son Kody, was diagnosed with type diabetes at six. The father and son visit the online children's forums together most evenings. “Kody gets so excited, writing to kids from all over the world,” says Swencki, one of the site's volunteers. “They know what he's going through, so he doesn't feel alone.”
Kody is anything but alone: Diabetes is now the seventh leading cause of death in the United States, with 24 million diagnosed cases. And more people are being diagnosed at younger ages.
These days, Thomas's main focus is his charity, Fight It, which provides medicines and supplies for people—225 to date—who can't afford a diabetic's huge expenses. Fight It has raised about $23,000—in products and in cash. In May, Thomas will hold the first annual Diabetic Rockstar Festival in the Caribbean.
Even with a staff of 22 volunteers, Thomas often devotes up to 50 hours a week to his cause, while still doing his full-time job to wait tables.“Of the diabetes charities out there, most are putting money into finding a cure,” says Bentley Gubar, one of Rockstar's original members. “But Christopher is the only person I know to say people need help now.”

I love charity shops and so do lots of other people in Britain because you can find quite a few of them in every high street. The charity shop is a British institution, selling everything from clothes to electric goods, all at very good prices. You can get things you won't find in the shops anymore. The thing I like best about them is that your money is going to a good cause and not into the pockets of profit-driven companies, and you are not damaging the planet, but finding a new home for unwanted goods.
The first charity shop was opened in 1947 by Oxfam. The famous charity's appeal to aid postwar Greece had been so successful that it had been flooded with donations. They decided to set up a shop to sell some of these donations to raise money for that appeal. Now there are over 7,000 charity shops in the UK. My favourite charity shop in my hometown is the Red Cross shop, where I always find children's books, all 10 or 20 pence each.
Most of the people working in the charity shops are volunteers, though there is often a manager who gets paid. Over 90% of the goods in the charity shops are donated by the public. Every morning you see bags of unwanted items outside the front of shops, though they don't encourage this, but rather ask people to bring things in when the shops are open.
The shops have very low running costs: all profits go to charity work. Charity shops raise more than ￡110 million a year, funding medical research, overseas aid, supporting sick and poor children, homeless and disabled people, and much more. What better place to spend your money You get something special for a very good price and a good moral sense. You provide funds for a good cause and tread lightly on the environment.
8.The author loves the charity shop mainly because of .
A.its convenient location
B.its great variety of goods
C.its spirit of goodwill
D.its nice shopping environment
9.The first charity shop in the UK was set up to .
A.sell cheap products
B.deal with unwanted things
C.raise money for patients
D.help a foreign country
10.Which of the following is TRUE about charity shops
A.The operating costs are very low.
B.The staff are usually well paid.
C.90% of the donations are second-hand.
D.They are open twenty-four hours a day.
11.Which of the following may be the best title for the passage
A.What to Buy at Charity Shops

Traffic jams are the horrible dreams of motorists' lives. If you think your journey is bad, spare a thought for drivers in Sao Paolo, Brazil—one evening in May last year, the traffic jams during the rush hour added up to a 344 km queue, according to the city's traffic management agency.
This isn't a new problem, of course. During the car boom of the 1960s, city planners had one seemingly obvious solution: build more and wider roads. But the more roads were created, the more cars they attracted. So what's the solution Some cities have adopted easy methods, like banning cars on certain days.
However, ending this horrible dream may need more of a complete rethink. A company, Urban Engines, has a slightly fresher method. “We're providing an online game that offers trip suggestions and prizes to encourage commuter behaviour changes, including changing travel from peak to off-peak times,” says Shiva Shivakumar, Urban Engines' co-founder and CEO. For the past two-and-a-half years, the company has conducted pilot studies in major cities, including Bangalore and Singapore City. In Bangalore, one in six of the people who took part in the trial started travelling off-peak, and in Singapore City one in eight.
But others think that this solution doesn't go far enough—and that we should provide more reasons for putting fewer cars on the road. “The only effective long-term solution is to improve alternative methods—walking, cycling and particularly high-quality public transport,” says Todd Litman of the Victoria Transport Policy Institute in Canada. Road pricing that charges motorists extra if they drive during the rush hour could also be an option. Cities like Singapore City, London and Stockholm have successfully used road pricing to control the steel river.
The solution to beating traffic jams in cities, if it comes, will probably take a long time to gain prizes. But if at least some of these new ideas are a success, the days of Sao Paolo's heavy traffic jams may finally become history.
12.What can we learn about the method of building wider roads
A.It results in the car boom.
B.It is far from satisfactory.
C.It needs to be further tested.
D.It is unlikely to be widely used.
13.What does Urban Engines do to deal with traffic jams
A.It charges commuters for travelling at peak times.
B.It changes its working time to avoid peak times.
C.It bans commuters from driving on certain days.
D.It offers prizes to those travelling at off-peak times.
14.What does the underlined part “the steel river” in Paragraph 4 refer to
A.The traffic flow.
B.The traffic light.
C.The public transport.
D.The crowd of people.
15.What can be the best title for the text
A.How do traffic jams form
B.Can we ever end traffic jams
C.Do traffic jams affect our life
D.Where is the most jammed city

How to Make the World a Better Place
When you think about people who have made the world a better place, you probably think of famous scientists or great leaders. That is not all the truth. 16 An act of kindness can bring a smile to a person's face even if only for a moment.
Give away your money. 17 For example, if you want to help hungry children, you can try to find an international organization that provides food for those in poor areas. Every cent you give away will mean a lot.
Help a stranger. Your small actions can brighten the day of others. Hold the door for someone whose hands are full. Help the blind cross the street. 18 The key is expecting nothing in return for your acts of kindness.
Care about those you know. Show the people close to you how much you care about them. Tell them they mean a lot to you. Make a beautiful gift for a friend. Take your husband to his favourite fun place if he has had a hard week. 19
Be grateful to others. Have you had good service in a restaurant Thank the waiter. Do you have a very good neighbour who is always there when you need her Tell her how much you appreciate her being in your life.
20 If a friend needs skills in a certain area, offer your advice. Perhaps she is struggling to set up a computer, and you know how to do that. Offer whatever ability you have, but always remember to be polite.
A.Share your knowledge.
B.Keep walking forward.
C.Small steps, not big ones.
D.Give your seat on the bus to an old man.
E.Choose charity that has meaning for you.
F.Tell your children how much they mean to you.
G.Ordinary people like you and me can also help a lot.

It was the middle of the day with the bright sun, blue sky, green grass, and a soft breeze (微风). It was a great day to play outside and the best day of my life because I got a new ball and a new bike as my sixth birthday presents, and I was visiting my cousin, Kristy, at her house.
“Here I go!” shouted David while kicking my new ball. David lived next door and was older than me. I thought he was a wild child, but he was actually very kind. The ball went flying as if it were going to space. “That was high!” Kristy said in surprise and we went after the ball. We all had a great time.
Later we had supper and the food my aunt made was good. While Kristy was helping do the dishes, David and I ran outside to play. We started taking turns riding my bike. David suggested that we ride it to the forest. And I agreed. David and I got on the bike and David started riding fast.
As we rode through the forest, I felt the wind brushing my face. It felt so great and free. Suddenly the bike hit a fallen branch and we went flying off the bike. Lying on the ground, I felt dizzy (眩晕的). I checked myself for injuries and saw some but they didn't upset me.
“David!” I shouted out anxiously.
“Hey,” said a voice. I turned my head and it was David, who was standing behind me, holding my broken bike. At the sight of my broken bike, I was so sad that I couldn't hold back my tears. It took David some time to calm me down.

A company, Urban Engines, has a slightly fresher method. ‘We're providing an online game that offers trip suggestions and prizes to encourage commuter behaviour changes, including changing travel from peak to off-peak times,’ says Shiva Shivakumar, Urban Engines' co-founder and CEO.”可知,Urban Engines为那些在非高峰时间出行的人提供奖励,来应对交通堵塞。故选D。
14.A 词义猜测题。根据倒数第二段中“Road pricing that charges motorists extra if they drive during the rush hour could also be an option.”以及画线部分上文“Cities like Singapore City, London and Stockholm have successfully used road pricing to control”可知,上文提到了当司机在高峰时间开车时,对他们进行收费来控制交通流量这种选择,所以画线部分所在句表示:像新加坡市、伦敦和斯德哥尔摩等城市已经成功地利用道路收费来控制交通流量问题。画线部分指的是“交通流量”。故选A。B项“交通信号灯”、C项“公共交通”和D项“人群”都不符合语境。
15.B 主旨大意题。文章主要说明了交通堵塞是驾驶员生活中的噩梦,针对这一问题城市规划者们采取了各种方法,文章主要介绍了不同城市解决城市交通堵塞的一些方法。因此,B选项“我们究竟能不能结束交通堵塞 ”最适合作为文章标题。故选B。

19.F 根据空前Take your husband to his favourite fun place if he has had a hard week.可知,如果你的丈夫经历了艰难的一周,带他去他最喜欢的娱乐场所。故此处讲的应该还是关于对待家人的内容, F项(告诉你的孩子们他们对你有多重要。)符合语境。

第二节
语篇解读 这是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者参加社区活动,给有需要的人送新年礼物的事情。
36.saying 考查非谓语动词。句意:一天,在我放学回家的路上,一位女士给了我一张纸,上面写着社区呼吁人们给那些有需要的人送新年礼物。主句中有谓语动词gave且句中无连词,故应用say的非谓语动词形式,paper与say之间为逻辑上的主动关系,故用say的现在分词saying。
37.who 考查定语从句。句意同上题。根据句意和句子结构可知,设空处引导限制性定语从句,先行词为those,指人,关系词指代先行词在从句中作主语,故应用关系代词who。
38.kindness 考查词性转换。句意:当我给我妈妈看这张纸时,她鼓励我参与其中,并向其他不如我们幸运的人传播善意。此处作spread的宾语,应用名词,故填kindness。
39.drove 考查动词的时态。句意:几天后,妈妈开车送我去商店,给了我20美元给邻居买礼物。根据句意和句中gave可知,句子陈述的是过去的事,应用一般过去时,故填drove。
40.buying 考查固定短语。句意:我不习惯自己买东西,因为我以前总是和父亲或母亲在一起买东西。be used to doing sth.习惯于做某事,故填buying。
41.parents 考查名词的数。句意同上题。“one of+可数名词复数”意为“……中的一个”,句中指“父母中的一个”,故填parents。
42.but 考查连词。句意:对我来说,似乎一切都很奇怪,很令人困惑,但我还是继续下去了。根据句意可知,设空处前后之间为转折关系,故填but。
43.called 考查非谓语动词。句意:突然,我想起了住在我们社区的那个叫杰克的可怜的男孩。主句中有谓语动词remembered且句中无连词,故应用call的非谓语动词形式,boy和call之间为逻辑上的被动关系,故填called。
44.without 考查介词。句意:我过去常常看到他在寒冷的冬季的月份没有穿夹克,所以我当场决定给他买件暖和的夹克。由此可知,他在寒冷的冬季的月份没有穿夹克,故填without。
45.finally 考查词性转换。句意:我看了很多夹克,最后选了一件厚厚的、蓝色的。应用副词作状语。

第一节
One possible version:
Dear John,
How are you doing Our class will hold an activity of donating clothes to children in remote areas next Friday. I am writing to invite you to join us.
The activity is scheduled to start at 2:00 pm, lasting for about three hours. We are supposed to help collect and sort out the clothes donated by teachers and students in our school, and then pack the clothes up for transporting. Since you are always willing to help others, why not come and join us this time
Looking forward to your early reply.
Yours,

第二节
One possible version:
Paragraph 1:
When we realized it was time to walk home, we found ourselves lost. It was getting darker and darker. I felt so scared that tears rolled down my face again. David tried to comfort me. He told me that he had once made some marks on the trees in the forest, which might help us find the way home. Therefore, we made efforts to look for the marks but failed. Having walked anxiously for about an hour in the forest, we didn't find our way out.
Paragraph 2:
It was completely dark when we saw fireworks (烟花) being set off in the distance. We ran excitedly in that direction as fast as possible. Soon we found my aunt's house, in front of which my cousin Kristy was holding some fireworks and lighting them. Seeing us come back safely, Kristy cheerfully hugged us. She told us that when noticing we had been away for long, she was concerned about our safety. She set off fireworks to draw our attention and guide us. It was an unforgettable experience. Without David's comfort and Kristy's fireworks, I would have lost in the forest forever.
