Natalie Doan, 14, has always felt lucky to live in Rockaway, New York. Living just a few blocks from the beach, Natalie can see the ocean and hear the wave from her house. “It's the ocean that makes Rockaway so special,” she says.
October 29，that ocean turned fierce（激烈的）.That night， Hurricane Sandy attacked the East Coast, and Rockaway was hit especially hard. Fortunately, Natalie's family ran away to Brooklyn shortly before the city's bridge closed.
When they returned to Rockaway the next day, they found their neighborhood in ruins. Many of Natalie's friends had lost their homes and were living far away. All around her, people were suffering, especially the old. Natalie's school was so damaged that she had to go to a school in Brooklyn.
In the following few days, the men and women helping Rockaway recover encouraged Natalie. Volunteers came with lots of clothing and toys. Neighbors offered their spare time to help others rebuild. Teenagers climbed stairs to deliver water and food to people trapped in powerless high buildings.
“My mom tells me that I can't control what happens to me,” Natalie says. “but I can always choose how I deal with it.”
Natalie's choice was to help.
She created a website page matching survivors in need with people who wanted to help. In the coming months, her website page helped lots of kids: Christopher, who received a new basketball; Charlie, who got a new keyboard. Natalie also worked with other organizations to bring much-need supplies to Rockaway. Her efforts made her a famous person.
Today，the scars（创痕） of destruction（破坏）are still seen in Rockaway， but hope is in the air. The streets are clear, and many homes have been rebuilt. “I can't imagine living anywhere but Rockaway,” Natalie says.“My neighborhood will be back, even stronger than before.”

C篇
For many people， moths（飞蛾）are dust-colored pests that eat our clothes and disturb us by flying around lights after dark. Not for artist Joseph Scheer. The pictures he creates bring out the beauty of moths, with colors, shapes,and patterns that have never been seen before so clearly. “Digital tools let you see things you'd never see just looking with your eyes,” Scheer says. Scheer's pictures have been displayed around the world, and one reaction is heard everywhere: “People insist,'No,that can't be a moth,'” says Scheer.
Scheer's work began with a moth hunt in the state of New York. Scheer would leave the lights on and the windows open overnight at his university office, and then collect the moths that had flown in. When the building cleaners at the university complained, he moved the hunt to his friend Mark Klingensmith's yard. They set up two lights shining over a plastic container on a white sheet. Then moths appeared from the darkness, flew into the sheet, and fell into the plastic container. “We got a different species every night,” Scheer says. “The patterns and colors were unbelievable.”
After the hunt, they used a powerful scanner （扫描器） to get detailed pictures of moths. Small moths presented special challenges.
The scanner records so much information that a single moth can take 20 minutes to scan. A scan of just two small moths fills an entire CD. All that information means the size of the picture can be increased by 2, 700 percent but still keep all the details and appear perfectly clear. You＇d need a microscope（显微镜）to see the details shown in Scheer's prints.
Scheer's work is not only a new form of art. He has also made a valuable contribution to the record of the moths around him. He has helped identify more than a thousand different species. “Not from Alaska or the Amazon,”Klingensmith says, “All from one backyard.”
( )8. What do people mean by “No,that can't be a moth”
A. Scheer is highly skilled at drawing.
B. They don't like the pictures of moths.
C. The moths in the pictures are too strange.
D. The pictures seem too beautiful to be moths'.
( )9. What is Paragraph 2 mainly about
A.How Scheer caught moths.
B. Scheer's working environment.
C. How Scheer found moths' beauty.
D. Scheer's friendship with Klingensmith.
( )10.The figures mentioned in Paragraph 4 show that
A. local moths have bright colors and clear patterns
B. a microscope should be used to prepare the pictures
C. clear pictures result from much detailed information
D.high quality paint must be used to create the pictures
( )11.What does the author think of Scheer's work
A. It is a common form of art.
B. It benefits research on moths.
C. It'll get popular in Alaska or the Amazon.
D. It needs to overcome geographical limitations.
D篇
Wouldn't it be wonderful to travel to a foreign country without having to worry about the headache of communicating in a different language
In a recent Wall Street Journal article, technology policy expert Alec Ross argued that, within a decade or so, we'll be able to communicate with one another via small earpieces with built-in microphones. That's because technological progress is extremely rapid. It's only a matter of time. Indeed, some parents are so sure that this technology is imminent that they're wondering if their kids should even learn a second language.
It's true that an increase in the quantity and accuracy（准确） of the data loaded into computers makes them cleverer at translating “No es bueno dormir mucho" as “It's not good to sleep too much”. Replacing a word with its equivalent（同义词）in the target language is actually the easy part of a translator's job. But even this seems to be a discouraging task for computers.
It's so difficult for computers because translation doesn't-or shouldn't-include simply translating words, sentences or paragraphs. Rather, it's about translating meanings. And in order to infer meaning from a specific expression, humans have to explain a mass of information at the same time. Think about all the related clues that go into understanding an expression: volume, gesture, situation, and even your culture. All are likely to express as many meanings as the words you use.
Therefore, we should doubt whether a machine is able to translate the world around us. If people from different cultures can offend（冒犯） each other without realizing it， how can we expect a machine to do better Unless engineers actually find a way to breathe a soul into a computer, undoubtedly when it comes to expressing and translating meanings using a natural language, a machine will never fully take our place.
( )12.What does the underlined word “imminent” in Paragraph 2 probably mean
A.Ready. B.Coming. C.Helpful. D.Advanced.
( )13.Why is it hard for computers to replace a word with its equivalent
A. Their supporting data is not rich enough.
B. The real meaning of words can change.
C. Their accuracy needs big improvement.
D. A soul hasn't been breathed into them.
( )14.What view does the author hold about translation
A. Proper translation can be difficult for machines.
B. Small differences mean little in translation.
C. Some machines will translate our world properly.
D. Cultures need more attention than words used.
( )15.What is the best title for the text
A.A New Language Translating Machine
B. Translation Will Become Easier
C. Who Will Be a Better Translator
D. Will Language Difficulty Actually Fall

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。
We all grew up hearing parents and teachers tell us to do well in school. The fact isthat if so, we'll have many more choices in the future. However, no matter how far you are in your education, it can be a challenge. 16
Take notes while you listen or read. 17 Besides, it also helps your brain stay active and absorb rich information. If your teacher allows you to take notes while they're talking in class, write down key points in the text, or make note of questions you have about the material while you read.
Ask questions if you don't understand something. It's your teachers' job to help you learn and understand. 18 Asking questions will not only help you learn the material better but will also show your teachers that you're interested.
19 This may seem pretty obvious, but it can be easy to get swamped and lose track of all the work you＇re supposed to be doing. Make sure to complete your assigned（布置的）reading and stay on top of any work you're required to hand in. Not only will your grades suffer if you don't do your homework assignments, but you also won't learn as much!
Take part in after-class activities. Consider signing up for school clubs, sports teams, or student committees. These activities can be fun and enriching, and they're also a good way for you to get to know your teachers and fellow students. 20
A. Take breaks often while you study. B. Keep up with your homework assignments. C. Most students don't know how to take notes. D. Therefore, don't be afraid to ask them questions. E. Luckily the tips below are of practical help to you. F. Taking notes helps you remember what you hear or read. G. Additionally, they will look good on college and job applications.

Once, there was a poor boy. He made a living by selling things from door to door. Through this, he could make some money to pay for his school.
One day, as he was walking from house to house as usual, he felt very hungry and weak. He felt that he couldn't walk even a few steps. He decided to ask for food at a house. So he knocked at the door. He was amazed to see a very beautiful young girl open the door for him. He asked the girl for a glass of water instead of a meal.
The young girl thought he must be hungry and thirsty. So she offered him a huge glass of milk. With a surprised look, the boy drank the milk very slowly. At once, he felt he was full of energy.
“How much do I pay you for this milk ” he asked the girl.
“I do not want any money for this,” she replied. “Mom has taught me never to accept pay for a kindness.”
The boy thanked the girl from the bottom of his heart and left the place. As the boy left that house, he felt stronger physically. He thought he must do something else to help others.
Years passed by quickly. Both the boy and the young girl grew up. In the girl's youth, unluckily, she fell ill. She suffered from an uncommon disease. It was hard for the local doctors to cure her. Even many doctors with rich experience didn't know how to cure her. Finally, she was sent to a hospital in a big city. There were many excellent doctors and the most advanced skills in the hospital.
Dr. Kevin was a well-known doctor. He was called in by the hospital to examine the girl. When he heard the name of the town that she came from, a strange light filled his eyes. Immediately, he rose and went down through the hospital hall into her room.

One possible version：
Dear Susan .
I’m glad to hear from you. You mentioned you are not interested in works of literature.
In my view, reading works of literature is beneficial to us. Reading them helps to improve our reading and writing skills and enlarges our vocabulary. Also, the content of literature works is generally educational. I often spend some time reading Mark Twain's books, which not only improves my written English, but also makes me learn the great spirit of the heroes in the books.
I hope you will benefit a lot by reading works of literature. Looking forward to your reply.
Yours,
Li Hua
第二节
One possible version:
He recognized the girl at once. From that day on, he gave special attention to her illness. He decided to do his best to save her life. With months of hard work, he was finally able to get the disease under control. Everyone praised the doctor. But the girl was quite worried because she couldn't afford the hospital bill. Her family had just a little money in the bank. It was by no means enough to pay for such a long treatment.
Dr. Kevin asked the business office to pass the final bill to him. He looked at it and then wrote something on the side. When the bill was sent to the girl, she opened it with shaking hands. She was surprised to see that the bill had been paid. Something on the side of the bill caught her attention. She read these words, “Bill paid years ago with a glass of milk!-by Dr. Kevin.” She was quite moved to tears with joy.

If people from different cultures can offend（冒犯） each other without realizing it， how can we expect a machine to do better Unless engineers actually find a way to breathe a soul into a computer, undoubtedly when it comes to expressing and translating meanings using a natural language, a machine will never fully take our place.

We all grew up hearing parents and teachers tell us to do well in school. The fact isthat if so, we'll have many more choices in the future. However, no matter how far you are in your education, it can be a challenge. 16
Take notes while you listen or read. 17 Besides, it also helps your brain stay active and absorb rich information. If your teacher allows you to take notes while they're talking in class, write down key points in the text, or make note of questions you have about the material while you read.
Ask questions if you don't understand something. It's your teachers' job to help you learn and understand. 18 Asking questions will not only help you learn the material better but will also show your teachers that you're interested.
19 This may seem pretty obvious, but it can be easy to get swamped and lose track of all the work you＇re supposed to be doing. Make sure to complete your assigned（布置的）reading and stay on top of any work you're required to hand in. Not only will your grades suffer if you don't do your homework assignments, but you also won't learn as much!
Take part in after-class activities. Consider signing up for school clubs, sports teams, or student committees. These activities can be fun and enriching, and they're also a good way for you to get to know your teachers and fellow students. 20
A. Take breaks often while you study. B. Keep up with your homework assignments. C. Most students don't know how to take notes. D. Therefore, don't be afraid to ask them questions. E. Luckily the tips below are of practical help to you. F. Taking notes helps you remember what you hear or read. G. Additionally, they will look good on college and job applications.

Once, there was a poor boy. He made a living by selling things from door to door. Through this, he could make some money to pay for his school.
One day, as he was walking from house to house as usual, he felt very hungry and weak. He felt that he couldn't walk even a few steps. He decided to ask for food at a house. So he knocked at the door. He was amazed to see a very beautiful young girl open the door for him. He asked the girl for a glass of water instead of a meal.
The young girl thought he must be hungry and thirsty. So she offered him a huge glass of milk. With a surprised look, the boy drank the milk very slowly. At once, he felt he was full of energy.
“How much do I pay you for this milk ” he asked the girl.
“I do not want any money for this,” she replied. “Mom has taught me never to accept pay for a kindness.”
The boy thanked the girl from the bottom of his heart and left the place. As the boy left that house, he felt stronger physically. He thought he must do something else to help others.
Years passed by quickly. Both the boy and the young girl grew up. In the girl's youth, unluckily, she fell ill. She suffered from an uncommon disease. It was hard for the local doctors to cure her. Even many doctors with rich experience didn't know how to cure her. Finally, she was sent to a hospital in a big city. There were many excellent doctors and the most advanced skills in the hospital.
Dr. Kevin was a well-known doctor. He was called in by the hospital to examine the girl. When he heard the name of the town that she came from, a strange light filled his eyes. Immediately, he rose and went down through the hospital hall into her room.

One possible version：
Dear Susan .
I’m glad to hear from you. You mentioned you are not interested in works of literature.
In my view, reading works of literature is beneficial to us. Reading them helps to improve our reading and writing skills and enlarges our vocabulary. Also, the content of literature works is generally educational. I often spend some time reading Mark Twain's books, which not only improves my written English, but also makes me learn the great spirit of the heroes in the books.
I hope you will benefit a lot by reading works of literature. Looking forward to your reply.
Yours,
Li Hua
第二节
One possible version:
He recognized the girl at once. From that day on, he gave special attention to her illness. He decided to do his best to save her life. With months of hard work, he was finally able to get the disease under control. Everyone praised the doctor. But the girl was quite worried because she couldn't afford the hospital bill. Her family had just a little money in the bank. It was by no means enough to pay for such a long treatment.
Dr. Kevin asked the business office to pass the final bill to him. He looked at it and then wrote something on the side. When the bill was sent to the girl, she opened it with shaking hands. She was surprised to see that the bill had been paid. Something on the side of the bill caught her attention. She read these words, “Bill paid years ago with a glass of milk!-by Dr. Kevin.” She was quite moved to tears with joy.
