一、阅读理解

Book reading is certainly one of the most absorbing(引人入胜的) habits. For young adults who love to read, finding some good books to read is very essential. Writing a book comment can develop your understanding of the book and it also helps you to enhance your language and writing skills.
The Book Thief
Listed on The New York Times' Children's Best Seller list for over 100 weeks, The Book Thief by Markus Zusak is the story of a young girl in the Nazi camps set during World War Ⅱ. So, if you love history and wish to learn how the life was during Adolf Hitler's time, read this historic book.
Anne Frank : The Diary of a Young Girl
Even Anne Frank can not have imagined that her personal diary written during World War Ⅱ would become such a popular book. It's a must read and a reread that describes the situation of a family in the evils of wars through the eyes of a teenager.

I started out my career as an editor for a travel magazine. I didn't really mind the work, but I wanted something more challenging. My sister sent me some details about a content management position in a digital reading company. The job was a seemingly perfect mix of my skills and interests, so I jumped at it.
However, soon after I joined the company, its model changed to focusing on education, and everything about my position changed. I was asked to take on the completely different roles of selling the products to teachers and training people. I had no experience in sales, training or education. On top of that, I'm an introvert (内向的人). I felt more than a little outside my comfort zone.
I knew I wanted to grow as an individual and make a serious impact on the company. I told myself that everything felt overwhelming(令人不知所措的) at first and I should at least try. In a way, I felt like I didn't have a choice. I knew jumping out of the nest was the right thing for me, even though it felt pretty awful.
I was fortunate to be surrounded by very helpful people, both at work and at home. My best friend reminded me that I had taken huge leaps of faith in the past and told me I would pull through just fine. It also helped that my boss seemed to have more faith in my capabilities than I did. She never asked if I thought I could do it; she only asked if I was interested in trying.
I spent hours researching my company's products. I asked lots of questions and spoke to so many teachers and there were soon more good experiences than difficult ones. I looked for opportunities to put in extra effort. The more I did, the better I felt.
Over time, I discovered that the job was something I could do and liked doing. It was incredibly rewarding to see the company grow and know that I had something to do with its success. Sure, I made mistakes and took on more than I could handle. But I also learned that it's important to take risks and accept new opportunities, even when you're not sure whether you'll do well. I don't think there's anything worse than failing because you refuse to even try. I’m so glad I tried, and know I'll do it again.

As the weather gets colder, we start wearing jackets, and most of us stop thinking about the sun. But the sun's rays can be just as harmful when it's cold and cloudy outside. "Any exposed area of your body can still get sunburned," Dr. Apple A. Bodemer, an assistant professor at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, told Live Science.
Whether you spend a day on the slopes or clearing snow out of your driveway, your face is still getting exposed to the sun's radiation in the form of ultraviolet(紫外线)(UV) light, which can go deep into your skin cells, causing DNA damage, according to Bodemer.
The sun's long ultraviolet A (UVA) waves can cause earlier aging and wrinkles, while its shorter ultraviolet B (UVB) rays are known for causing skin reddening and burns.
Skin damage caused by UV exposure increases over time. More exposure to radiation contributes to severer damage, even skin cancer. In addition, snow and ice can also make sun damage worse. They reflect up to 80 percent of UV rays reaching the ground. That means you get heat from both the sky and the ground. And skiers and snowboarders increase their risk of getting sunburned even more because UV exposure increases at higher altitudes.
"Generally, the biggest factor for sun-sensitivity is how pale your skin is," Bodemer said. "But the reality is that even the individual with the darkest skin can get sun damage."
Luckily, the solution to protecting your skin is simple: Wear sunscreen every day. Rigel recommended using sunscreen with a sun protection factor (SPF) of at least 30, and that SPFs go higher at higher altitudes. As a rule of thumb, SPF 30 will block 97 percent of UVB rays, SPF 50 blocking 98 percent, and SPF 100 blocking 99 percent. Whatever kind of sunscreen you use, it's important to apply it once about every 2 hours.
Rigel also suggested sunscreens with "broad spectrum (光谱)"—to protect against both UVB and UVA rays — as well as sunscreens that are water-resistant for up to 80 minutes. That way, you can go about your day without it wearing off too quickly.
1.Which of the statements best describes UV light
A.UVB rays cause much less damage to skin than UVA rays.
B.Skin damage from UV light can be totally prevented by sunscreen.
C.Snow and ice make people suffer much more UV light damage.
D.People outdoors needn't worry about getting sunburned on a cold day.
2.Which is the most vital factor as for sun damage
A.Your skin color. B.The clothes you wear.
C.The altitude of your place. D.The weather when you are outside.
3.What do we know about sunscreen
A.The lower the sunscreen's SPF is, the better effect it will have.
B.People working on high mountains need sunscreen of SPF 30.
C.Applying sunscreen once a day when you are outside is necessary.
D.Water-resistant sunscreen can be applied once every 80 minutes.
4.What may be the best title for the passage
A.Being Exposed to Sun Rays B.Ultraviolet A & Ultraviolet B
C.Preventing Sunburn in Winter D.Different Kinds of Sunscreens
D
Jennifer Mauer has needed more willpower than the typical college student to pursue her goal of earning a nursing degree. That willpower bore fruit when Jennifer graduated from University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire and became the first in her large family to earn a bachelor's degree.
Mauer, of Edgar, Wisconsin, grew up on a farm in a family of 10 children. Her dad worked at a job away from the farm, and her mother ran the farm with the kids. After high school, Jennifer attended a local technical college, working to pay her tuition(学费), because there was no extra money set aside for a college education. After graduation, she worked to help her sisters and brothers pay for their schooling.
Jennifer now is married and has three children of her own. She decided to go back to college to advance her career and to be able to better support her family while doing something she loves: nursing. She chose the UW-Eau Claire program at Ministry Saint Joseph's Hospital in Marshfield because she was able to pursue her four-year degree close to home. She could drive to class and be home in the evening to help with her kids. Jennifer received great support from her family as she worked to earn her degree: Her husband worked two jobs to cover the bills, and her 68-year-old mother helped take care of the children at times.
Through it all, she remained in good academic standing and graduated with honors. Jennifer sacrificed (牺牲) to achieve her goal, giving up many nights with her kids and missing important events to study. "Some nights my heart was breaking to have to pick between my kids and studying for exams or papers," she says. However, her children have learned an important lesson witnessing their mother earn her degree. Jennifer is a first-generation graduate and an inspiration to her family — and that's pretty powerful.
1.What did Jennifer do after high school
A.She helped her dad with his work. B.She ran the family farm on her own.
C.She supported herself through college. D.She taught her sisters and brothers at home.
2.Why did Jennifer choose the program at Ministry Saint Joseph's Hospital in Marshfield
A.To take care of her kids easily. B.To learn from the best nurses.
C.To save money for her parents. D.To find a well-paid job there.
3.What did Jennifer sacrifice to achieve her goal
A.Her health. B.Her time with family.
C.Her reputation. D.Her chance of promotion.
4.What can we learn from Jennifer's story
A.Time is money. B.Love breaks down barriers.
C.Hard work pays off. D.Education is the key to success.
二、根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项,选项中有两项为多余选项。
How to Do Man-on-the-street Interviews
The man-on-the-street interview is an interview in which a reporter hits the streets with a cameraman to interview people on the spot. ①_________ But with these tips, your first man-on-the-street interview experience can be easy.
● When your boss or professor sends you out to do man-on-the-street interviews for a story, think about the topic and develop a list of about ten general questions relating to it. For example, if your topic is about environmental problems in America, you might ask, "Why do you think environmental protection is important in America " ②_________
Hit the streets with confidence. ③_________ Say, "Excuse me, I work for XYZ News, and I was wondering if you could share your opinion about this topic." This is a quick way to get people to warm up to you.
● Move on to the next person if someone tells you he/she is not interested in talking on camera. Don't get discouraged.
● ④_________ Each interview that you get on the street shouldn’t be longer than ten minutes. As soon as you get the answer you need, move on to the next person. Make sure that as you go from interview to interview, you are getting a variety of answers. If everyone is giving you the same answer, you won't be able to use it. A safe number of interviews to conduct is about six to ten. ⑤_________
● If your news station or school requires interviewees to sign release forms to appear on the air, don't leave work without them.
A. Limit your time.
B. As you approach people, be polite.
C. If you don't own a camera, you can buy one.
D. For new reporters, this can seem like a challenging task.
E. To get good and useful results, ask them the same question.
F. That number of interviews should give you all the answers you need.
G. With a question like this, you will get more than a "Yes" or "No" reply.

I had run out of printer ink, so I drove to the only store to buy some. It was the worst possible 1 to shop. The store was 2 with people and the wait at the checkout counter was long. I could see the 3 and frustration on the faces of the people around me. It was no 4 in the parking lot and I found myself in the middle of a long line of cars 5 to pull out.
As my car was inching forward I saw a young, thin woman in a 6 coat, holding up a cardboard sign that 7 : "Homeless. Please Help!" I watched as car after car drove past her, the drivers ing closer I grabbed my wallet and pulled out the little cash I had left. I stopped next to her, 9 down my window, and put it in her dirty hand, half covered with her ragged sleeve. She looked at me with a small 10 and whispered "Thank you" before the honking (鸣笛) car behind me forced me to 11 on.
I drove away hoping that I had helped her even little. Did my small act of kindness make a 12 to her I don't know. Did it change the 13 of the driver behind me Probably not. In life we all want to make great changes and do great things, 14 sometimes a small kindness is enough.
The best way to help the helpless is to get up and do something. Love and kindness are never 15 . They always make a difference. So fill your days with small kindnesses and love.

六、阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
As the sun shone through Poltu's window, he was already wide awake in his bed. He got up and ran straight to his study table. There, in an empty jam bottle, was the treasure. A colorful little butterfly. How difficult it had been to catch it in the backyard of his house! It had kept flying away from his grasp. But he did catch it. And it was going to be part of his biology project in school.
The biology project required Poltu to submit the study of a living creature every month. Most of his classmates drew diagrams from their books as part of this exercise. But Poltu was going to do something different. He was going to present a live creature—this butterfly.
Poltu loved the different colours on the wings of the butterfly. Red, green and blue. How beautiful it looked when it fluttered the wings! Poltu had made a few holes on the cap of the bottle to let air pass through, and added tender leaves for the butterfly to nibble(小口地咬)on. He might have trapped the creature, but he cared for it.
Excited about displaying his exhibit to the biology teacher, Poltu dressed hurriedly, and left for school. His school was within walking distance of his house. He took a short cut and when he arrived, the gate wasn't wholly open yet.
He walked straight into his class, opened the bench window and placed the bottle on the windowsill. The golden rays of the sun streamed through the glass, on the delicate wings of the butterfly. Poltu's butterfly looked simply gorgeous. In a few minutes, the area was full of boys, even from other classes, gazing fondly at it.
That day's biology class was the most interesting in a long time. Pleased with Poltu's initiative(主动性), the teacher asked everyone in the class to thank him as he made it possible for them to study a butterfly so closely. Poltu felt like a star for being treated like royalty.
On the way home, whatever small creature Poltu came across, he felt like putting into the bottle. But he checked himself as he wanted to give breathing space to his butterfly.
注意:续写词数应为150左右。
However, when he returned home, he found the butterfly not moving.
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
He ran outside, holding the bottle tightly in his hand.
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

五、答案:
Dear Peter,
I'm glad that you are caring about the development of my hometown. Great changes have taken place since the 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China. The targeted poverty reduction has made a difference. Many poor families have got effective help from the local government and have improved their quality of life greatly. Now our village is surrounded with more green trees and colorful flowers. The rivers that were polluted seriously are getting clearer and clearer. Please come to visit my hometown in the near future.
Yours,
Li Hua
六、答案:
However, when he returned home, he found the butterfly not moving. Suspecting that it could be sleeping, he patted the cap of the bottle lightly, but no response. Poltu was scared all of a sudden. A disturbing thought flashed across his mind that the butterfly might have been exhausted to death after being displayed the entire day. He poured a little water into the bottle, which seemed to help as the butterfly shivered a little. There followed a long period of utter stillness of the poor creature, leaving Poltu even more unsettled.
He ran outside, holding the bottle tightly in his hand. The air in the backyard was refreshing from the scent of the green grass. He quickly unscrewed the cap of the bottle and started shaking it gently. His heart pounded as he waited for the butterfly to come alive. Then slowly, as if waking from a deep slumber, the butterfly started to move. Poltu watched as it fluttered its wings and rose gently up into the air. Staring at the empty bottle for an instant, he had a feeling of emptiness himself. But it was a delight to send the butterfly back to where it belonged—nature.
