一、阅读理解

Food festivals are a common occurrence in the UK and take place in all sorts of places and at all sorts of times.
Are you a meat lover Then why not try Meatopia This three-day, London-based festival usually takes place at the end of August. In addition to a range of meat products, from juicy burgers to tasty steaks, attendees can watch butchery demonstrations and attend informal meat-based workshops.
If you prefer a festival that will help you avoid any kind of meat or fish, then VegfestUK is for you. This vegan-friendly event takes place in a range of UK places several times a year. Here you can enjoy a wide selection of freshly prepared vegan food, learn cooking tips and hear talks on nutrition to help you make the most of your plant-based food.
If you have a sweet tooth, then the National Honey Show, which started in 1923, will be the place for you. This three-day event attracts over 2,000 entrants (参赛者) to its traditional competition, and offers lectures and workshops on beekeeping and, of course, honey.
If that doesn't suit you, what about a festival that is dedicated merely to strawberries Strawberry, a festival of preserves(果酱), has been running for a decade. It includes a competition to find the best homemade strawberry sauce.
If you prefer something with a kick, then you could attend the Ginger and Spice Festival held in Market Drayton. It celebrates its town's historic connection to Robert Clive, who returned from India with ginger.

It's 8 a.m., Tuesday, Nov. 21, 2028, and you are heading for a business appointment 300 miles away. You step into your circle, a two-passenger air-cushion car, press a series of buttons and the national traffic computer notes your destination, figures out the current traffic situation and signals your car to slide out of the garage. Hands free, you sit back and begin to read the morning paper—which is flashed on a flat TV screen over the car's dashboard. Tapping a button changes the page.
The car speeds up to 150 mph in the city's countryside, and then hits 250 mph in less built-up areas, driving over the smooth plastic road. You fly past a string of cities, many of them covered by the new domes(圆屋顶) that keep them evenly climatized all year round. Traffic is heavy, typically, but there's no need to worry. The traffic computer, which sends and receives signals to and from all cars on the road between cities, keeps vehicles at least 50 yds apart. There hasn't been an accident since the system began.
Suddenly your TV phone buzzes. A business partner wants a brief report of a new kind of impeller your firm is producing for sports boats. You reach for your case and draw the diagram with a pencil-thin infrared flashlight(红外线手电筒) on what looks like a TV screen lining the back of the case. The diagram is sent to a similar screen in your partner's office, 200 miles away. He presses a button and a fixed copy of the report rolls out of the machine. He wishes you good luck at the coming meeting and signs off.
Ninety minutes after leaving your home, you slide beneath the dome of your destination city. Your car slows down and heads for an outer-core office building where you'll meet your colleagues. After you get out, the vehicle parks itself in a garage to await your return. Private cars aren't allowed inside most city cores. Moving sidewalks and trams carry the public from one location to another.
1.What can the traffic computer in your car do
A.It can keep your car at a safe distance from other cars.
B.It can keep your car at the same speed in different situations.
C.It can keep your car receiving signals of TV programs.
D.It can keep your car driving while avoiding heavy traffic.
2.Why are the cities covered by the new domes
A.To prevent people from being wet in the rain.
B.To stop the climate of the cities changing violently all year.
C.To protect the travelers against the strong sunshine.
D.To make the city have the same weather all year.
3.What will the city be like in the future
A.Accidents will happen because of heavy traffic.
B.The sidewalk can move itself up and down.
C.The road will be built with the plastic material.
D.The car can park itself on a dome to wait for your return.
4.What does the third paragraph mainly talk about
A.You are lucky to sell products of your company.
B.You receive best wishes from your business partner.
C.You can do business with a newly invented pencil.
D.You can do business even on the road in the future.
C
Futurologists are making a lot of predictions about our future life and they are predicting how we will travel, work and live in the future. By 2049, some futurologists foresee that some "talking" buildings will appear in our life.
By the middle of the century, it's believed that buildings will be able to "talk" to people through various sensors when the heating needs to be turned on. As a result, there will be no switches. Instead, a lot of networks will appear, which can be compared to a human nervous system. In the future, buildings will be made from concrete plastics and shape-changing materials. All of them can heal themselves at that time. As architects are racing to develop the world's tallest buildings, there will be a need for new kinds of elevators, through which vehicles could even travel into the buildings. German engineers have already started working on such technology called Multi.
By mid-century, scientists believe that buildings will be miles tall. Some of them may be very large and they can function as small cities. By comparison, at present, the world's tallest building, the Burj Khalifa in Dubai, measures 829.8 metres high. As the future building can rise through the clouds, their windows will be replaced by virtual screens. In this way, people can choose any view as they like.
A London Spaceport is also likely to come into being by 2049 as the space industry develops very quickly. There is a huge cost advantage in going to space from a base as high as possible, so a spaceport is very likely to be over 10 km and even as much as 30 km, using carbon-based materials.
1.How will the heating system be controlled in the future
A.Through the net. B.Through mobiles.
C.Through sensors. D.Through switches.
2.What might happen to the future buildings in a disaster
A.They can recover by themselves. B.They can seek help automatically.
C.They can transport people to space. D.They can protect people against harm.
3.What's the possible advantage of Multi
A.Seeing the beautiful scenery. B.Allowing vehicles to enter buildings.
C.Connecting the earth with space. D.Making it possible to build high buildings.
4.Which is the best title for the text
A.Be the Best Buildings with Carbon-based Materials
B.The Higher the Building, the Better
C.Smart Buildings in the Future
D.More Functions, Less Cost
D
On one occasion, while visiting my parents, I happened to meet the little boy who lived next door. It was obvious that his mother had told him not to come over uninvited. . . he was standing on the very edge of his yard with an anxious look on his face, seemingly about to burst.
My father waved him over and performed the introductions. "Eliot, this is my son, Gary. Gary, meet my little friend, Eliot.” To my delight, he extended his small hand and I accepted the formality(遵守礼节) with a smile.
Unlike most children, this towheaded youngster was not shy of meeting a stranger. As a matter of fact, he turned out to be quite a chatterbox. Eliot had me laughing as I listened to the excitement in his voice... for,as you know, it was a big deal to find a toad (蟾蜍)! His descriptions were priceless as I asked the obvious questions concerning the capture. He was pleased that I showed interest in his adventure and gladly explained its details.
Since Eliot seemed so willing to invest in our budding friendship, I asked him a question, "Do you like!: banjo music " He got very excited and answered me with a hearty " Yes!"
I retrieved my banjo from the cab, but when I sat next to him and started playing, Eliot looked at me with a puzzled expression. He asked me "What’s that " in all seriousness.
My dad and I grinned(例着嘴笑). The hoy who just "loved" the banjo didn’t recognize that I was holding one and that what I was playing was "banjo music".
I realized that his heart was in the right place. Eliot just wanted to please his new friend with that "Yes", thinking it was what I wanted to hear.
Well anyway. . . Eliot likes the banjo for real now. And I like Eliot.
1.When Eliot saw the author, he ______________.

B.Eliot would like to spend money in developing friendship
C.Eliot looked forward to promoting friendship with the author
D.Eliot was regretful for not making friends with the author

He began that adventure traveling to cities in the US before going on to Australia, New Zealand and the Philippines. He took my mother and us three daughters with him and went wherever the road 3 him.
It's easy to feel 4 when you're on the road. We made lots of new friends on our trip—most of them are mechanics, since we often 5 hours in repair shops. But that was a way much 6 than sitting by the roadside while waiting for the engine to cool off when it was 40℃ outside.
Getting along well sometimes seemed 7 . There were always a lot of 8 , especially among us back seat passengers about who had to sit in the middle. But even if it was hard, we learned a lot about tolerance(包容). When we were traveling in the Philippines, we drove to Quezon City one day. It should have been an hour's drive but was nearly three thanks to bad roads and 9 traffic. “Did you put our suitcases in the car ” my father asked my mother as we arrived there. From the back seat, we saw her slowly turn toward my father. “No,” she said. “I thought you did.” That was how a seven-hour car trip turned into a 16-hour one, which was mostly spent in vain(徒劳).
On occasions like that, we had to learn to let go of our anger because we were 10 in a rolling box with the same people for the rest of the 11 . Even if I sometimes felt like opening the car door and 12 one of my sisters out, I kept my feelings to myself.
This is why road trips were like 13 universities to us. We 14 our PhDs(博士学位) in how to get along with other people just by traveling in our old car.
If we were 15 given a second chance at life, we would do it all over again. Only this time would I put the suitcases in the car myself.

六、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。
Jack, a clerk at the local bank, was wandering alone on the street. It was a cold, silent winter night. His mind was on his wife Linda, who had been in a car accident two months ago and was now lying in a hospital bed, waiting for more money for her operation. Jack had sold everything he had, and he had tried his best to borrow money from all the people and banks he could. But the real world is cruel.
A large amount of money was still needed. To Jack, it would mean a great deal of suffering to see his wife die without any help. "I have only one option left," Jack said to himself. Then he went to the bank, his workplace, again. For several days, he observed the bank and planned a theft.
The next day, he went to work as usual. Everything seemed normal: he joked with his workmates and helped his clients as he always did. But no one noticed that he had brought a bigger suitcase to work, instead of the small one he always carried. At 5:00 p. m., the bank closed, and the clerks and the guards had all gone home. However, at that moment Jack was in the bathroom, and the guards didn't notice him, of course. When the noises coming from the street were replaced by silence and everything turned dark, Jack came out from the bathroom. He first cut the lines of the alarms and monitors with tools from his new suitcase.
He was all too familiar with the equipment since he had been working there for 8 years and had been studying the security system for the past 30 days. Using a special key and some other tools, he then easily opened the doors of the safes. The bank’s security system wasn’t very good, which allowed Jack to take a lot of money. Several minutes later, Jack left the bank with a heavy bag filled with money.

六、答案：
Paragraph 1:
After Jack had been away from the bank for a while, the alarms began to ring. The police arrived at the bank very quickly, only to find no one there. The next day was a really special day for the town, which was filled with newspaper and TV reporters covering the strange theft. The clerks at the bank were busy discussing the case, of course, including Jack. The police could only promise to catch the thieves as soon as possible, even though no clues had been found yet.
Paragraph2:
But the most unlucky man was the manager of the bank, an old man. He seemed to be the only person to blame and was removed from his position. At last, with enough money for her operation, Jack's wife was saved. However, Jack felt guilty about the manager of the bank. He could not forget what he had done to the old man. His guilt deepened as time went by. Finally, he turned himself in to the police and accepted his punishment.

Food festivals are a common occurrence in the UK and take place in all sorts of places and at all sorts of times.
Are you a meat lover Then why not try Meatopia This three-day, London-based festival usually takes place at the end of August. In addition to a range of meat products, from juicy burgers to tasty steaks, attendees can watch butchery demonstrations and attend informal meat-based workshops.
If you prefer a festival that will help you avoid any kind of meat or fish, then VegfestUK is for you. This vegan-friendly event takes place in a range of UK places several times a year. Here you can enjoy a wide selection of freshly prepared vegan food, learn cooking tips and hear talks on nutrition to help you make the most of your plant-based food.
If you have a sweet tooth, then the National Honey Show, which started in 1923, will be the place for you. This three-day event attracts over 2,000 entrants (参赛者) to its traditional competition, and offers lectures and workshops on beekeeping and, of course, honey.

It's 8 a.m., Tuesday, Nov. 21, 2028, and you are heading for a business appointment 300 miles away. You step into your circle, a two-passenger air-cushion car, press a series of buttons and the national traffic computer notes your destination, figures out the current traffic situation and signals your car to slide out of the garage. Hands free, you sit back and begin to read the morning paper—which is flashed on a flat TV screen over the car's dashboard. Tapping a button changes the page.
The car speeds up to 150 mph in the city's countryside, and then hits 250 mph in less built-up areas, driving over the smooth plastic road. You fly past a string of cities, many of them covered by the new domes(圆屋顶) that keep them evenly climatized all year round. Traffic is heavy, typically, but there's no need to worry. The traffic computer, which sends and receives signals to and from all cars on the road between cities, keeps vehicles at least 50 yds apart. There hasn't been an accident since the system began.
Suddenly your TV phone buzzes. A business partner wants a brief report of a new kind of impeller your firm is producing for sports boats. You reach for your case and draw the diagram with a pencil-thin infrared flashlight(红外线手电筒) on what looks like a TV screen lining the back of the case. The diagram is sent to a similar screen in your partner's office, 200 miles away. He presses a button and a fixed copy of the report rolls out of the machine. He wishes you good luck at the coming meeting and signs off.
Ninety minutes after leaving your home, you slide beneath the dome of your destination city. Your car slows down and heads for an outer-core office building where you'll meet your colleagues. After you get out, the vehicle parks itself in a garage to await your return. Private cars aren't allowed inside most city cores. Moving sidewalks and trams carry the public from one location to another.
1.What can the traffic computer in your car do
A.It can keep your car at a safe distance from other cars.
B.It can keep your car at the same speed in different situations.
C.It can keep your car receiving signals of TV programs.
D.It can keep your car driving while avoiding heavy traffic.
2.Why are the cities covered by the new domes
A.To prevent people from being wet in the rain.
B.To stop the climate of the cities changing violently all year.
C.To protect the travelers against the strong sunshine.
D.To make the city have the same weather all year.
3.What will the city be like in the future
A.Accidents will happen because of heavy traffic.
B.The sidewalk can move itself up and down.
C.The road will be built with the plastic material.
D.The car can park itself on a dome to wait for your return.
4.What does the third paragraph mainly talk about
A.You are lucky to sell products of your company.
B.You receive best wishes from your business partner.
C.You can do business with a newly invented pencil.
D.You can do business even on the road in the future.
C
Futurologists are making a lot of predictions about our future life and they are predicting how we will travel, work and live in the future. By 2049, some futurologists foresee that some "talking" buildings will appear in our life.
By the middle of the century, it's believed that buildings will be able to "talk" to people through various sensors when the heating needs to be turned on. As a result, there will be no switches. Instead, a lot of networks will appear, which can be compared to a human nervous system. In the future, buildings will be made from concrete plastics and shape-changing materials. All of them can heal themselves at that time. As architects are racing to develop the world's tallest buildings, there will be a need for new kinds of elevators, through which vehicles could even travel into the buildings. German engineers have already started working on such technology called Multi.
By mid-century, scientists believe that buildings will be miles tall. Some of them may be very large and they can function as small cities. By comparison, at present, the world's tallest building, the Burj Khalifa in Dubai, measures 829.8 metres high. As the future building can rise through the clouds, their windows will be replaced by virtual screens. In this way, people can choose any view as they like.
A London Spaceport is also likely to come into being by 2049 as the space industry develops very quickly. There is a huge cost advantage in going to space from a base as high as possible, so a spaceport is very likely to be over 10 km and even as much as 30 km, using carbon-based materials.
1.How will the heating system be controlled in the future
A.Through the net. B.Through mobiles.
C.Through sensors. D.Through switches.
2.What might happen to the future buildings in a disaster
A.They can recover by themselves. B.They can seek help automatically.
C.They can transport people to space. D.They can protect people against harm.
3.What's the possible advantage of Multi
A.Seeing the beautiful scenery. B.Allowing vehicles to enter buildings.
C.Connecting the earth with space. D.Making it possible to build high buildings.
4.Which is the best title for the text
A.Be the Best Buildings with Carbon-based Materials
B.The Higher the Building, the Better
C.Smart Buildings in the Future
D.More Functions, Less Cost
D
On one occasion, while visiting my parents, I happened to meet the little boy who lived next door. It was obvious that his mother had told him not to come over uninvited. . . he was standing on the very edge of his yard with an anxious look on his face, seemingly about to burst.
My father waved him over and performed the introductions. "Eliot, this is my son, Gary. Gary, meet my little friend, Eliot.” To my delight, he extended his small hand and I accepted the formality(遵守礼节) with a smile.
Unlike most children, this towheaded youngster was not shy of meeting a stranger. As a matter of fact, he turned out to be quite a chatterbox.

His descriptions were priceless as I asked the obvious questions concerning the capture. He was pleased that I showed interest in his adventure and gladly explained its details.
Since Eliot seemed so willing to invest in our budding friendship, I asked him a question, "Do you like!: banjo music " He got very excited and answered me with a hearty " Yes!"
I retrieved my banjo from the cab, but when I sat next to him and started playing, Eliot looked at me with a puzzled expression. He asked me "What’s that " in all seriousness.
My dad and I grinned(例着嘴笑). The hoy who just "loved" the banjo didn’t recognize that I was holding one and that what I was playing was "banjo music".
I realized that his heart was in the right place. Eliot just wanted to please his new friend with that "Yes", thinking it was what I wanted to hear.
Well anyway. . . Eliot likes the banjo for real now. And I like Eliot.

My father was born in a small town in the US. He wasn't sure what he wanted from 1 , but something told him to 2 and begin a new adventure.
He began that adventure traveling to cities in the US before going on to Australia, New Zealand and the Philippines. He took my mother and us three daughters with him and went wherever the road 3 him.
It's easy to feel 4 when you're on the road. We made lots of new friends on our trip—most of them are mechanics, since we often 5 hours in repair shops. But that was a way much 6 than sitting by the roadside while waiting for the engine to cool off when it was 40℃ outside.
Getting along well sometimes seemed 7 . There were always a lot of 8 , especially among us back seat passengers about who had to sit in the middle. But even if it was hard, we learned a lot about tolerance(包容). When we were traveling in the Philippines, we drove to Quezon City one day. It should have been an hour's drive but was nearly three thanks to bad roads and 9 traffic. “Did you put our suitcases in the car ” my father asked my mother as we arrived there. From the back seat, we saw her slowly turn toward my father. “No,” she said. “I thought you did.” That was how a seven-hour car trip turned into a 16-hour one, which was mostly spent in vain(徒劳).
On occasions like that, we had to learn to let go of our anger because we were 10 in a rolling box with the same people for the rest of the 11 . Even if I sometimes felt like opening the car door and 12 one of my sisters out, I kept my feelings to myself.
This is why road trips were like 13 universities to us. We 14 our PhDs(博士学位) in how to get along with other people just by traveling in our old car.
If we were 15 given a second chance at life, we would do it all over again. Only this time would I put the suitcases in the car myself.

六、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。
Jack, a clerk at the local bank, was wandering alone on the street. It was a cold, silent winter night. His mind was on his wife Linda, who had been in a car accident two months ago and was now lying in a hospital bed, waiting for more money for her operation. Jack had sold everything he had, and he had tried his best to borrow money from all the people and banks he could. But the real world is cruel.
A large amount of money was still needed. To Jack, it would mean a great deal of suffering to see his wife die without any help. "I have only one option left," Jack said to himself. Then he went to the bank, his workplace, again. For several days, he observed the bank and planned a theft.
The next day, he went to work as usual. Everything seemed normal: he joked with his workmates and helped his clients as he always did. But no one noticed that he had brought a bigger suitcase to work, instead of the small one he always carried. At 5:00 p. m., the bank closed, and the clerks and the guards had all gone home. However, at that moment Jack was in the bathroom, and the guards didn't notice him, of course. When the noises coming from the street were replaced by silence and everything turned dark, Jack came out from the bathroom. He first cut the lines of the alarms and monitors with tools from his new suitcase.
He was all too familiar with the equipment since he had been working there for 8 years and had been studying the security system for the past 30 days. Using a special key and some other tools, he then easily opened the doors of the safes. The bank’s security system wasn’t very good, which allowed Jack to take a lot of money. Several minutes later, Jack left the bank with a heavy bag filled with money.

六、答案：
Paragraph 1:
After Jack had been away from the bank for a while, the alarms began to ring. The police arrived at the bank very quickly, only to find no one there. The next day was a really special day for the town, which was filled with newspaper and TV reporters covering the strange theft. The clerks at the bank were busy discussing the case, of course, including Jack. The police could only promise to catch the thieves as soon as possible, even though no clues had been found yet.
Paragraph2:
But the most unlucky man was the manager of the bank, an old man. He seemed to be the only person to blame and was removed from his position. At last, with enough money for her operation, Jack's wife was saved. However, Jack felt guilty about the manager of the bank. He could not forget what he had done to the old man. His guilt deepened as time went by. Finally, he turned himself in to the police and accepted his punishment.
