【解析】句意：现在许多老人独自待在家里，所以他们经常感觉很孤独。
考查形容词和副词用法。lonely孤独的，形容词，带有感彩；alone独自（的），副词和形容词，不带感彩。根据语境可知“老人在家里”讲述的是一个事实，而“他们感觉很孤独”带有强烈的感彩；第一空修饰动词stay用副词alone，第二空系动词feel后跟形容词lonely作表语，故选C。
8. My grandparents _________ for fifty years and they love each other very much.
A. have got married B. got married C. have been married D. have married

【解析】句意：我的祖父母已经结婚50年了，他们彼此深爱着对方。
考查现在完成时态。根据空后for fifty years可知，这是一个表示一段时间的时间状语，而marry是瞬间性动词，不能持续一段时间，所以要用be married，表示状态，它后面可以跟表示一段时间的状语，结合语境可知用现在完成时，现在完成时态的结构为have/has+动词的过去分词，主语是My grandparents，所以助动词用have，应填have been married，故选C。

3、 阅读理解（分2节，共35分）
第一节、阅读选择（30分）
A
Depression (抑郁症) is a serious problem today. One expert says that depression is like cancer because it is “widespread, costly and deadly”. Depression hits one person in five around the world.
Although people have believed depression to be a problem among the rich and educated studies shows that depression among everyone. Over any six-month period, between five to seven percent of the world’s population will be suffering from a serious depression.
A recent research shows that the more teenagers watch television, the more likely they are to develop depression as young adults.
The researchers used a nationwide long-term survey of teenage health to investigate the relationship between media (传媒) use and depression. They based their findings on more than four thousand teenagers who were not depressed when the survey began in 2000.
As part of the survey, the young people were asked how many hours of television or videos they watched daily. They were also asked how often they played computer games and listened to the radio. Media use totaled an average of five and a half hours a day. More than two hours of that was spent watching TV.
Seven years later, in 2007, more than seven percent of the young people had signs of depression. The average age at that time was twenty-one.
The researchers say they did not find any such relationship with the use of other media such as movies, video games of radio etc. But the study did find that every extra hour of television meant an eight percent increase in the chances of developing signs of depression. Young men were more likely than young women to develop depression given the same amount (总量) of media use.
The study didn’t explore if watching TV causes depression. But one possibility is that it was taking time away from activities that could help prevent depression.
Last December, the journal Social Indicators Research published a study of activities that help lead to happy lives. Sociologists from the University of Maryland found that people who describe themselves as happy spend less time watching television than unhappy people. The study found that happy people are more likely to be socially active, to read, to take part in religious services and to be volunteers.

A group of graduates, quite successful in their businesses, got together to visit their old college teacher. Conversation soon turned into complaints about stress in work and life.
Before offering his students coffee, the teacher went to the kitchen and returned with a large pot of coffee and different kinds of cups—porcelain（瓷）, plastic, glass, crystal, some plain-looking and cheap, some exquisite（精美的） and expensive—telling them to help themselves to the coffee. When all the students had a cup of coffee in hand, the teacher said, “If you notice, all the nice-looking expensive cups were taken up, leaving behind the plain and cheap ones. While it is normal for you to want only the best for yourselves. That is the place which your problems and stress come from.”

What all of you really wanted was coffee, not the cup, but you went for the best cups. And then you began watching each other’s cups.” “Now consider this: Life is the coffee; the jobs, money and position（地位） in society are the cups. They are just tools to contain（容纳） life, and the type of cup we have does not mean anything, and it doesn’t change the quality of life we live, either. Sometimes, by concentrating only on the cup, we fail to enjoy the coffee.”

The history of Chinese characters dates back to ancient times, with the history of at least several thousand years.
There are many tales and legends about the origin of hanzi, Chinese characters: there is Cangjie, the legendary inventor of Chinese character; the ancient practice of knot-tying; the eight trigrams (八卦); and ancient painting legends to name a few. It is generally agreed that hanzi began as simple pictures, images that the ancient Chinese people drew, painted or carved to describe nature or their lives. Other ancient cultures developed picture-based writing systems as well, such as the hieroglyphs (象形文字) of ancient Egypt or the script of the ancient Mayan civilization. Hanzi, however, is the only one of these ancient writing systems to survive.
Today, Chinese characters are the oldest continuously used system of writing in the world. Researchers generally agree that the oldest symbols recognizable as Chinese characters are those found on ancient oracle bones. These 3000-year-old symbols, known as, jiaguwen, were carved on turtle shells or bones of animals. The jiaguwen can give all of us in the modern era insight into how ancient Chinese saw the world around them and into their great creativity in expressing their observations. Take, for example, the modern character jia, meaning home or family. The jiaguwen character looks like a house with a nice pig inside, originating from the ancient idea that a good family home has plenty of food. Over thousands of years, this hanzi evolved into a variety of different forms but finally developed in a more stable manner after the unification of China under Emperor Qinshihuang.
When you first look at Chinese characters, you will most likely feel that they are very complicated. However, if you know just a little about how these characters are formed, you will find that they are not nearly as difficult as they seem. About 80% of Chinese characters are composed of small parts, known as radicals (部首), which are combined in many different ways to form tens of thousands of hanzi. Fortunately, you need to know only about two or three thousand characters for use in daily life!
As China takes its place in the international community, the Chinese writing system has spread to other countries. Today, many international students are studying Chinese, both the spoken and written language, and are coming to appreciate China’s fascinating culture. And, as China’s culture and society have continued to develop, the amazingly versatile(多功能的) Chinese characters (hanzi) have been adapted for use in digital format on computers and other devices. And so written Chinese lives on, spreading Chinese culture wherever it goes.
33. According to the passage, we can learn that Chinese characters ________.
A. have a long history with seven thousand years.
B. began as simple pictures.
C. are the only one ancient writing system.
D. are so complicated that nobody can understand.
34. Why did the writer mention Emperor Qinshihuang in the passage
A. Because he was the inventor of Chinese characters.
B. Because hanzi evolved into a variety of different forms.
C. Because he helped developed hanzi in a more steady form.
D. Because he unified China and created hanzi.
35. What can we learn from the underlined sentence (划线句子) in Paragraphr4
A. Radicals are smaller parts which can be combined to form hanzi.
B. Chinese characters are composed of radicals.
C. Chinese characters can be combined.
D. Radicals can be combined into thousands of hanzi only.
36. What may the writer probably talk about Chinese characters in the next paragraph
A. The relation between Chinese characters and Chinese culture.
B. Tips for foreigners on how to learn Chinese well.
C. Another Chinese traditional culture.
D. The origin of Chinese characters.
【答案】33. B 34. C 35. A 36. B
【解析】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了中国汉字的起源及其重要意义。
33.细节理解题。根据文章第二段中的“It is generally agreed that hanzi began as simple pictures, images that the ancient Chinese people drew, painted or carved to describe nature or their lives”可知，汉字开始于简单的图片，故选B。
34.细节理解题。根据文章第三段中的“Over thousands of years, this hanzi evolved into a variety of different forms but finally developed in a more stable manner after the unification of China under Emperor Qinshihuang”可知，秦始皇统一了文字，故选C。
35.推理判断题。根据文章第四段中的“About 80% of Chinese characters are composed of small parts, known as radicals (部首), which are combined in many different ways to form tens of thousands of hanzi”可知，百分之八十的汉字是由部首组成的，因此判断部首是汉字中更小的部分，可以组成汉字，故选A。
36.推理判断题。根据文章最后一段中的“Today, many international students are studying Chinese, both the spoken and written language, and are coming to appreciate China’s fascinating culture”可知，越来越多的外国人学习汉语，因此判断接下来的段落会讲到如何学好汉语，故选B。

A mindset is the way of thinking. Your mindset can affect almost every part of your daily life. Dr. Carol Dweck, a scientist who studies how the mind works, has discovered that people with a fixed (固定的) mindset deal with problems in a different way from those with growth mindset.
Imagine that two students, Anna and Amy, are taking a really hard math test in September. Anna has a fixed mindset, everything is easy for you. Amy has a growth mindset, which means she believes that your intelligence can grow. Not everyone can become a genius, but they can improve the skills they have and develop new ones.
So which is right It’s Amy. Believe it or not, research shows that you really can get smarter by working hard, practicing, and challenging yourself.
As you know, your brain is made up of billions of neurons (神经元). They are all connected and send messages to each other. Scientists have found that when we learn, neurons make new connections and old connections grow stronger. But if connections aren’t used, they will break down. So, learning is like exercise for your brain. The more you work it out, the stronger and smarter your network of neurons will become.
According to Dr. Carol Dweck’s studies, people with a fixed mindset worry about grades. They’re afraid of looking stupid when they make mistakes. People with a growth mindset care about learning not grades. They learn from their mistakes and try to find different ways of solving problems. They ask for help when necessary. In only two years, babies learn to walk, talk and feed themselves. They never worry about looking stupid when learning. If they make mistakes, they just try again.
Dweck’s team also discovered that, with some work, kids can choose to have a growth mindset. They can do better in school. The trick is to notice what mindset you have. If you ever think yourself stupid, it’s not true. You just have not learned how to do something yet.
37. Which of the following is TRUE about neurons
A. Learning is not always helpful to them.
B. All of them are connected to each other.
C. They only make new connections when we study.
D. The connections among them will never break down.
38. What might a man with a growth mindset agree about
A. I will look foolish when I make mistakes in study.
B. If you are smart enough, you can do everything easily.
C. The mindset plays the most important role in people ‘s life.
D. Everyone can get smarter by working hard and practicing more.
39. The writer gives the example of babies in Paragraph 5 to show that babies ________.
A. learn new skills from mistakes
B. easily make mistakes in daily life
C. learn skills faster than older people
D have fewer worries than older people
40. How did the writer develop his main idea
A. By listing numbers. B. By telling true stories.
C. By comparing the differences. D. By showing reasons and results.
【答案】37. C 38. D 39. A 40. C
【解析】本文主要讲述了心态的重要性。
37.细节判断题。根据“Scientists have found that when we learn, neurons make new connections and old connections grow stronger. But if connections aren’t used, they will break down.”可知，当我们学习时，神经元会产生新的连接，而旧的连接会变得更强。但如果不使用连接，它们就会崩溃。故选C。
38.推理判断题。根据“Dweck’s team also discovered that, with some work, kids can choose to have a growth mindset. They can do better in school. The trick is to notice what mindset you have. If you ever think yourself stupid, it’s not true. You just have not learned how to do something yet.”可知， 一个有成长心态的人会认为每个人都可以通过努力工作和多练习变得更聪明。故选D。
39.推理判断题。根据“In only two years, babies learn to walk, talk and feed themselves. They never worry about looking stupid when learning. If they make mistakes, they just try again.”可知婴儿从错误中学习新技能。故选A。
40.推理判断题。根据“Imagine that two students, Anna and Amy, are taking a really hard math test in September. Anna has a fixed mindset, everything is easy for you. Amy has a growth mindset, which means she believes that your intelligence can grow.”可知，作者通过比较差异来阐述自己的观点。故选C。

Girls and boys,
With the development of the Internet, many students have smart phones. The students often spend so much time in playing games with them that they feel very tired. Someone doesn’t finish their homework on time. Someone even sleeps in class. Besides, smart phones do harm to our health, some students’ eyesight is becoming poorer and poorer.
To avoid these disadvantages, I think we should make some changes.
First, we should keep away from smart phones and work hard.
Second, stay with our family or friends if we are free and talk with them about our daily life, feelings and so on.
Third, take an active part in all kinds of activities, such as playing basketball, singing songs.
That’s all. Thank you!

A
Depression (抑郁症) is a serious problem today. One expert says that depression is like cancer because it is “widespread, costly and deadly”. Depression hits one person in five around the world.
Although people have believed depression to be a problem among the rich and educated studies shows that depression among everyone. Over any six-month period, between five to seven percent of the world’s population will be suffering from a serious depression.
A recent research shows that the more teenagers watch television, the more likely they are to develop depression as young adults.
The researchers used a nationwide long-term survey of teenage health to investigate the relationship between media (传媒) use and depression. They based their findings on more than four thousand teenagers who were not depressed when the survey began in 2000.
As part of the survey, the young people were asked how many hours of television or videos they watched daily. They were also asked how often they played computer games and listened to the radio. Media use totaled an average of five and a half hours a day. More than two hours of that was spent watching TV.
Seven years later, in 2007, more than seven percent of the young people had signs of depression. The average age at that time was twenty-one.
The researchers say they did not find any such relationship with the use of other media such as movies, video games of radio etc. But the study did find that every extra hour of television meant an eight percent increase in the chances of developing signs of depression. Young men were more likely than young women to develop depression given the same amount (总量) of media use.
The study didn’t explore if watching TV causes depression. But one possibility is that it was taking time away from activities that could help prevent depression.
Last December, the journal Social Indicators Research published a study of activities that help lead to happy lives. Sociologists from the University of Maryland found that people who describe themselves as happy spend less time watching television than unhappy people. The study found that happy people are more likely to be socially active, to read, to take part in religious services and to be volunteers.
26. The writing purpose of this passage is ________.
A. to introduce a long-term survey
B. to describe the signs of depression
C. to discover the possible causes of depression
D. to tell stories about a widespread, costly and deadly illness
27. What can we learn about depression
A. Only rich and educated people may suffer from depression.
B. Depression hits 20 percent of people around the world.
C. Teenagers are more likely to develop depression.
D. It is a common illness that can be cured easily.
28. What can we infer from the passage
A. Social activities may lead to depression.
B. Watching TV may increase the risk of developing depression.
C. Teenagers should play more video games instead of watching TV.
D. Compared to young men, young women are more likely to develop depression.

A group of graduates, quite successful in their businesses, got together to visit their old college teacher. Conversation soon turned into complaints about stress in work and life.
Before offering his students coffee, the teacher went to the kitchen and returned with a large pot of coffee and different kinds of cups—porcelain（瓷）, plastic, glass, crystal, some plain-looking and cheap, some exquisite（精美的） and expensive—telling them to help themselves to the coffee. When all the students had a cup of coffee in hand, the teacher said, “If you notice, all the nice-looking expensive cups were taken up, leaving behind the plain and cheap ones. While it is normal for you to want only the best for yourselves. That is the place which your problems and stress come from.”
“Be sure that the cup itself adds no quality to the coffee. In most situations it is just more expensive and in some situations even hides what we think. What all of you really wanted was coffee, not the cup, but you went for the best cups. And then you began watching each other’s cups.” “Now consider this: Life is the coffee; the jobs, money and position（地位） in society are the cups. They are just tools to contain（容纳） life, and the type of cup we have does not mean anything, and it doesn’t change the quality of life we live, either. Sometimes, by concentrating only on the cup, we fail to enjoy the coffee.”
“The happiest people don’t have the best of everything. They just make the best of everything.”
29. Why did the successful graduates get together
A. To complain about their stress in life and work.
B. To visit their old teacher in college.
C. To discuss something about their common interest.
D. To remember the happy days when they had been students.
30. Why did the teacher bring in different kinds of cups
A. He was richer than his students.
B. He was interested in collecting cups.
C. There were too many people drinking coffee.
D. The cups would play an important part in his talk.
31. Where did the problems and stress in work and life come from
A. Wanting the best of everything. B. Failing to tell which was useful.
C. Too many people drinking coffee. D. Choosing life instead of jobs, money and position.
32. What can we know from the passage
A. If you have the best of everything, you are always the happiest.
B. If you are the happiest, you always have the best of everything.
C. If you can make the best of everything, you are the happiest.
D. No one can be the happiest.

The history of Chinese characters dates back to ancient times, with the history of at least several thousand years.
There are many tales and legends about the origin of hanzi, Chinese characters: there is Cangjie, the legendary inventor of Chinese character; the ancient practice of knot-tying; the eight trigrams (八卦); and ancient painting legends to name a few. It is generally agreed that hanzi began as simple pictures, images that the ancient Chinese people drew, painted or carved to describe nature or their lives. Other ancient cultures developed picture-based writing systems as well, such as the hieroglyphs (象形文字) of ancient Egypt or the script of the ancient Mayan civilization. Hanzi, however, is the only one of these ancient writing systems to survive.
Today, Chinese characters are the oldest continuously used system of writing in the world. Researchers generally agree that the oldest symbols recognizable as Chinese characters are those found on ancient oracle bones. These 3000-year-old symbols, known as, jiaguwen, were carved on turtle shells or bones of animals. The jiaguwen can give all of us in the modern era insight into how ancient Chinese saw the world around them and into their great creativity in expressing their observations. Take, for example, the modern character jia, meaning home or family. The jiaguwen character looks like a house with a nice pig inside, originating from the ancient idea that a good family home has plenty of food. Over thousands of years, this hanzi evolved into a variety of different forms but finally developed in a more stable manner after the unification of China under Emperor Qinshihuang.
When you first look at Chinese characters, you will most likely feel that they are very complicated. However, if you know just a little about how these characters are formed, you will find that they are not nearly as difficult as they seem. About 80% of Chinese characters are composed of small parts, known as radicals (部首), which are combined in many different ways to form tens of thousands of hanzi. Fortunately, you need to know only about two or three thousand characters for use in daily life!
As China takes its place in the international community, the Chinese writing system has spread to other countries. Today, many international students are studying Chinese, both the spoken and written language, and are coming to appreciate China’s fascinating culture. And, as China’s culture and society have continued to develop, the amazingly versatile(多功能的) Chinese characters (hanzi) have been adapted for use in digital format on computers and other devices. And so written Chinese lives on, spreading Chinese culture wherever it goes.
33. According to the passage, we can learn that Chinese characters ________.
A. have a long history with seven thousand years.
B. began as simple pictures.
C. are the only one ancient writing system.
D. are so complicated that nobody can understand.
34. Why did the writer mention Emperor Qinshihuang in the passage
A. Because he was the inventor of Chinese characters.
B. Because hanzi evolved into a variety of different forms.
C. Because he helped developed hanzi in a more steady form.
D. Because he unified China and created hanzi.
35. What can we learn from the underlined sentence (划线句子) in Paragraphr4
A. Radicals are smaller parts which can be combined to form hanzi.
B. Chinese characters are composed of radicals.
C. Chinese characters can be combined.
D. Radicals can be combined into thousands of hanzi only.
36. What may the writer probably talk about Chinese characters in the next paragraph
A. The relation between Chinese characters and Chinese culture.
B. Tips for foreigners on how to learn Chinese well.
C. Another Chinese traditional culture.
D. The origin of Chinese characters.

A mindset is the way of thinking. Your mindset can affect almost every part of your daily life. Dr. Carol Dweck, a scientist who studies how the mind works, has discovered that people with a fixed (固定的) mindset deal with problems in a different way from those with growth mindset.
Imagine that two students, Anna and Amy, are taking a really hard math test in September. Anna has a fixed mindset, everything is easy for you. Amy has a growth mindset, which means she believes that your intelligence can grow. Not everyone can become a genius, but they can improve the skills they have and develop new ones.
So which is right It’s Amy. Believe it or not, research shows that you really can get smarter by working hard, practicing, and challenging yourself.
As you know, your brain is made up of billions of neurons (神经元). They are all connected and send messages to each other. Scientists have found that when we learn, neurons make new connections and old connections grow stronger. But if connections aren’t used, they will break down. So, learning is like exercise for your brain. The more you work it out, the stronger and smarter your network of neurons will become.
According to Dr. Carol Dweck’s studies, people with a fixed mindset worry about grades. They’re afraid of looking stupid when they make mistakes. People with a growth mindset care about learning not grades. They learn from their mistakes and try to find different ways of solving problems. They ask for help when necessary. In only two years, babies learn to walk, talk and feed themselves. They never worry about looking stupid when learning. If they make mistakes, they just try again.
Dweck’s team also discovered that, with some work, kids can choose to have a growth mindset. They can do better in school. The trick is to notice what mindset you have. If you ever think yourself stupid, it’s not true. You just have not learned how to do something yet.
37. Which of the following is TRUE about neurons
A. Learning is not always helpful to them.
B. All of them are connected to each other.
C. They only make new connections when we study.
D. The connections among them will never break down.
38. What might a man with a growth mindset agree about
A. I will look foolish when I make mistakes in study.
B. If you are smart enough, you can do everything easily.
C. The mindset plays the most important role in people ‘s life.
D. Everyone can get smarter by working hard and practicing more.
39. The writer gives the example of babies in Paragraph 5 to show that babies ________.
A. learn new skills from mistakes
B. easily make mistakes in daily life
C. learn skills faster than older people
D have fewer worries than older people
40. How did the writer develop his main idea
A. By listing numbers. B. By telling true stories.
C. By comparing the differences. D. By showing reasons and results.
