Have you ever ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) had a day when everything seemed to go wrong, and nothing seemed to go right Not too long ago I was having one of those days. I felt 11 , tired and sad. I lived 12 and had no one to turn to. At last, I decided to go to my mother’s.
After arrivi ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ng at my mother’s place, I immediately expressed my 13 to my mother. I stood there 14 some pity, but she didn’t 15 me. Instead, she said, “I heard Jamie was having a(n) 16 day, too. Why don’t you 17 her some cookies and we’ll take them to her this afternoon ”
I didn’t really wan ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )t to, 18 thinking working might help me feel better, I went to the 19 . When the cookies were ready, I 20 them on a plate. Then I made a 21 and wrote something on it with empathy (同情).
That afternoon we w ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ent to my friend’s house. I rang the bell. Soon, Jamie came to the door and looked at me in 22 for the unexpected visit. Before she could say anything, I said, “I heard you were having a hard day and 23 to bring you something. I hope your day goes better.” The 24 that came over Jamie’s face was one that I could never put into words. It was as if a darkened sky was suddenly 25 with the golden rays of the sun; it was as if in that small act, her day was 26 .
I got back into t ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )he car and 27 some amazing reason, I felt much better. That day I experienced the 28 that James Barrie attempted to 29 . He once said, “Those who bring 30 to the lives of others cannot keep it from themselves.”

第二部分 阅读理解 (共两节,共50分)
第一节 阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项。(共20小题;每小题2分,共40分)
A
If you have ever dre ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )amed about a fork that tracks your eating habits and reminds you when you’re eating too fast, then your dream has now come true. The HAPIfork is such a magic fork. Jacques Lepine claims the smart fork can make you eat healthier, eat slower and lose weight by helping you eat at the right pace.
The product has be ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )en so popular that it won PCMag’s Best Gadget of CES award. But the question is: Is the fork worth its retail price (零售价) of $ 99 While $ 99 is a high price to pay for a fork, if it can really help you lose weight and be healthier, it is worth it.
Research has shown ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )that people usually take 20 minutes from starting eating to feeling full. Those who eat too fast tend to eat more than their bodies need, which contributes to weight gain. Besides, eating too quickly is bad for your digestion (消化) system, as food that is eaten too fast tends to be poorly chewed. If you try to take more than one bite in the 10-second interval (间隔), the HAPIfork will shake against your lips, providing a gentle reminder for you to slow down.21*cnjy*com
Now HAPIfork is ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) available in black, pink, green and white. It can be washed in a dishwasher and is hard enough to bear a drop on the table. It comes with a USB cable for charging. It also allows you to check your data on your phone through an app.
31. The HAPIfork can remind you that .
A. you are overweight B. you are eating too fast
C. you are eating unhealthy food D. you are eating at a wrong time
32. In the second paragraph, the writer wants to show .
A. the fork is cer ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )tainly worth it B. the fork should be a little cheaper
C. the fork has won ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )many awards D. the fork is facing a lot of challenges
33. Which of the following is TRUE about a HAPIfork
A. It refuses to work if one eats too fast.
B. It is of only one color and can not be charged.
C. A drop on the table will damage it.
D. It can be connected with a phone to check information.
B
Pittsburgh’s m ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )any hills aren’t kind to bikers. Anyone hoping to ride to work there has to fight the steep streets such as Canton Avenue, which famously climbs at a nearly 40-degree angle. As a result, some residents are reluctant to ride their bikes to work.
But University of P ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ittsburgh graduate Micah Toll, 23, recently launched an invention: An electric bike called a Pulse PEVO. A super-strong battery powers the bike. A Pulse PEVO is able to hit nearly 20 miles per hour, and it can move up the city’s most steep hills. Toll hopes Pulse PEVO will persuade people in Pittsburgh and elsewhere to get out of their cars and onto bikes.
It sounds like Toll ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) has a knack (本领) for fixing problems. In high school, Toll designed a new type of construction material, one made out of foam (泡沫材料). It weighs no more than a feather pillow but can be used to build homes. For his work, Toll was invited to attend the Intel International Science and Engineering Fair—twice, in 2006 and 2007. The annual competition for young researchers is a program of Society for Science & Public. Toll says that when it comes to science, he keeps it simple: “You see a problem and say, ‘How could I solve that ’”
Toll is not the only ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) one to take that approach. Many young researchers get their start by trying to solve a problem or fulfill a need in their own community. “When students dedicate themselves to finding a solution that may benefit their community, a passion is ignited (点燃),” said Wendy Hawkins, executive director of the Intel Foundation, which sponsors Intel ISEF. “Finding that passion and fostering (哺育) it can be the key to many students’ future success,” she said.
34. According to the f ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )irst paragraph, many residents in Pittsburgh think .
A. biking to work is interesting B. biking to work is fashionable
C. biking to work is comfortable D. biking to work is challenging
35. Toll’s new invention might help people .
A. keep fit B. save time
C. enjoy work D. make more friends
36. According to the text, Toll does well in .
A. following tips B. solving problems
C. doing exercise D. organizing competitions
37. What can we learn from Wendy Hawkins’ words
A. New inventions help people solve problems.
B. Inventing new things brings people a sense of happiness.
C. People’s abili ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ty of finding and solving problems should be encouraged.
D. No one can predict whether the youngsters will succeed or not.
C
After a year at sea ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ), 16-year-old Laura Dekker could finally say, “Mission accomplished!” Last month, she completed a daring trip around the world aboard her 38-foot boat, Guppy. Dekker, who’s from the Netherlands, traveled more than 30, 000 miles all by herself. She’s the youngest person ever to sail around the globe alone.
Dekker had wanted to ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) take on this challenge when she was even younger. She first tried to set sail at the age of 13, but a court in the Netherlands stopped her. They said that she was too young to make such a risky trip by herself. But Dekker believed she had the navigation skills and patience of an adult sailor.
She finally took ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )off on January 20, 2011. During her trip, Dekker fought against loneliness, storms and worries about pirates. She also got to surf, dive, and started a new hobby: playing the flute (长笛). Although Dekker didn’t spend all of her time at sea—she stopped at ports along the way—she did spend her 16th birthday on the open ocean. To celebrate, she ate doughnuts (甜甜圈) for breakfast.
But Dekker didn’t ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )sail into the record books. Guinness World Records and the World Sailing Speed Record Council no longer recognize records for “youngest” sailors. They dropped the category in 2009 to discourage children from attempting such dangerous feats (技艺). But that didn’t stop Dekker, who was born on a yacht (快艇) during a seven-year world voyage undertaken by her parents.
Dekker doesn’t mind ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) that she won’t hold an official record. She says it is a personal goal, and she’s happy she has achieved it.
“I am not disa ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ppointed at all that Guinness World Records won’t recognize
my attempt,” Dekker wrote on her blog. “I did not start on my trip to achieve any record. I did it just for myself.”
38. Dekker wa ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )sn’t allowed to sail around the world alone at the age of 13 because .
A. people were concerned about her safety
B. she didn’t learn any sailing skills
C. her parents didn’t permit her to do so
D. she had to continue her study at school
39. To celebrate her 16th birthday, Dekker .
A. went to surf at sea alone B. had doughnuts for breakfast
C. played the flute on the boat D. went diving all day
40. Dekker sailed around the world .
A. for an official record B. in honor of her parents
C. out of interest D. with a purpose of fame
41. Which of the following is the best title of the text
A. Dekker spends a whole year at sea
B. Laura Dekker enters Guinness World Records
C. A girl has set a record by sailing alone
D. A teen girl sails alone around the world

In the wild, lions, t ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )igers and striped hyenas (条纹鬣狗) all seek out the same prey (猎物) and often steal each other’s kills. But don’t tell that to these five youngsters who believe that they were born to be best friends.
Their mothers immediat ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ely left the three baby lions, one baby tiger and one baby striped hyena after they were born at the Akwaaba Lodge in Rustenburg, South Africa. Fortunately, the owner of the Akwaaba Lodge, Layla Cajee, decided not only to adopt the young babies, but also place them under one roof. The babies have become best friends who spend their entire day playing together.
Like every toddler (蹒跚 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )学步的孩子), each one has a different personality. According to Layla, the leader of the group is the five-month-old tiger cub (幼兽) Bella, who controls everything including trying to get the biggest share during meal times. The lion cubs, Delano, Romeo and Maximus, who are also five months old, are surprisingly timid (羞怯的). As for six-month-old Milika, the hyena, she is the bad one, always ready to start a fight with her temporary brothers and sisters.
However, this ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )love fest (欢庆) will not last forever. Within about two years, as soon as the cute cubs turn into hazardous predators (猎食者), they will be given their own living quarters. But it is thanks to this unusual bond that they will be able to see that day, because none of them would have been able to survive alone.
What will be int ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )eresting to observe is their relationship if they encounter each other in the wild later. Will they compete with each other as fiercely for the same prey as they normally do, or will they remember the fact that they were once friends and shared their kills
42. What do we know about the animals from Paragraph 1
A. They usually get along very well.
B. They often cooperate to hunt for food.
C. They are fierce competitors in the wild.
D. They usually prey on each other in the wild.

B. They were abandoned by their mothers.
C. They were loved by their parents.
D. They were sent to another country.
44. We learn that the hyena Milika .
A. is not afraid of the baby lions and the baby tiger
B. knows she is the weakest compared to the other four
C. is in charge of everything including how to share food
D. knows she won’t ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) live with the baby lions and the baby tiger for long
45. What does the u ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )nderlined word “hazardous” in Paragraph 4 probably mean
A. Grateful. B. Happy. C. Dangerous. D. Determined.

If it still survi ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ves, the ivory-billed woodpecker (象牙喙啄木鸟) is the third largest surviving woodpecker today. Its average length is 20 inches with a tail length of 6 inches. Its wingspan is 30 inches. Adult birds weigh just over a pound.
Habitat destruct ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ion through clear-cut logging (皆伐) nearly killed off the ivory-billed woodpecker. Guns did the rest. When a pair of birds was found in Florida in 1924, they were shot immediately for taxidermy specimens (动物标本).
Some of the last iv ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ory-billed woodpeckers lived in the Singer Tract old-growth forest of Louisiana. In 1938, this large area of forest was clear-cut despite pleas from the National Audubon Society and 4 southern state governors.21·世纪*教育网
The last-known iv ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ory-billed woodpecker was found in 1944. A possible call was recorded in East Texas in 1967. Extremely rare sightings continued through the 1970s and 1980s, nearly all of them years apart. After a long period with no sightings, the ivory-billed woodpecker was declared extinct in 1994.
In February 2004, ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )Gene Sparling tracked down an ivory-billed woodpecker in Cache River, Arkansas. He brought in Tim Gallagher, who belonged to the Cornell Lab of Ornithology (鸟类学), and Bobby Harrison, a photographer, to establish the truth of his finding.
This was enough evi ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )dence for the Cornell Lab of Ornithology to follow up the sighting and try to find other birds. After 5 years of search, this attempt proved that there was at least a single male in the region. Another team of ornithologists found evidence for ivory-billed woodpeckers along the Choctawhatchee River in northwest Florida, but failed to sight any. The Cornell Lab continues to offer a $50,000 reward to anyone who can lead a project biologist to a living ivory-billed woodpecker.
Now the Inte ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )rnational Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) lists the ivory-billed woodpecker as badly endangered, possibly extinct.
46. What is the text mainly about
A. What the ivory-billed woodpecker is like.
B. Where the ivory-billed woodpecker is found.
C. Whether the ivory-billed woodpecker is still survive.
D. How we can protect the ivory-billed woodpecker.
47. Why did Gene Sparling bring two other people in his search
A. To take pictures of birds. B. To make the search easier.
C. To give him professional knowledge.
D. To provide evidence for his finding.
48. After 5 years of search, the Cornell Lab of Ornithology .21·cn·jy·com
A. didn’t find any ivory-billed woodpeckers
B. found at least one ivory-billed woodpecker
C. found several pairs of ivory-billed woodpeckers
D. only found some evidence for ivory-billed woodpeckers
49. We can infer from the text that the ivory-billed woodpecker .
A. was last found in 1944 B. was not well protected
C. lives in the deep forest D. likes to fly along the river
50. Which of the following is TRUE about ivory-billed woodpeckers
A. They are probably extinct. B. They still exist few in number.
C. They can be found now and then.
D. They have become extinct already.

Dyslexia (诵读困难) ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )is a learning disorder; it interferes with the ability to recognize words, and for some readers to understand what they have read. Experts say dyslexia affects about five to ten percent of the population of the United States. 21*cnjy*com
But a new study s ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )hows that people with dyslexia may have trouble redirecting (使改道) their attention between senses, from seeing something to hearing something. The study suggests something that might help dyslexic people learn more quickly—playing video games.
Vanessa Harra ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )r of Britain’s University of Oxford led the study. She reported the findings in the journal Current Biology. The study suggests that dyslexic people may have trouble moving quickly from what they read to what they hear. Doctor Harrar calls this a “sluggish (迟钝的) shifting of attention across the senses”. “So, if you are trying to read something and then trying to listen to somebody who’s reading aloud and you’re trying to follow along with what they are reading—they have to switch their attention from hearing what they are saying to looking at the piece of paper and back again,” said Harrar.
In the study, D ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )octor Harrar tested 17 people with dyslexia, and 19 others without dyslexia. The volunteers were asked to push a button as quickly as possible when they heard a sound, saw a light or experienced both together. Doctor Harrar compared the speed of their reactions. She found that people with dyslexia were just as fast as the others when they saw only a picture or heard only a sound. But the dyslexics had a longer reaction time when they heard a sound and saw a picture at the same time.
Doctor Harrar feels li ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ke playing action video games could help dyslexic people shift from seeing to hearing more quickly. The more you play a video game, the faster you react. So, the video game is really training the attention system to move quickly.

One possible version:
Recently our class ha ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )d a heated discussion on whether people should keep pets in the neighborhood.
Some of us are in favo ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )r of keeping pets because animals are our friends and we can get on well with them. Besides, keeping pets can give old people some comfort. What’s more, keeping pets provides a chance for people to do exercise and communicate with others.
However, others ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) are against the idea. They think that animal wastes pollute the environment and the noise made by pets makes it hard for people to sleep at night. What is worse, some pets can even hurt people. And lastly, keeping pets wastes a lot of time and money.
As far as I am concern ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ed, keeping pets is not a bad idea in our neighborhood as long as we can take measures to prevent pets from doing harm to people.21cnjy.com
