The principles about applying for jobs have altered greatly lately. In the past, people preferred a hand-written application letter. However, nowadays it is becoming more and more common to apply for a job through the Internet. You can find information on the Internet about how to apply for jobs. Information can be found about how to fulfill your application letter, the clothes that you should wear and how to carry out the interview itself.
The importance of body language is often mentioned, but doesn’t always get the attention it deserves. After all, before a word has even been spoken, your body language will have already given people their first impression of you. Additionally, your body language will also give out a lot more information. Based on your body language it can be seen if you are self-confident. It can also show if you are a busy or a quiet type and it helps give an impression of whether you are speaking truthfully or not. Body language can show how enthusiastic you are and if you are a nice person. Someone who will take his work seriously, but also someone who has a sense of humor and can enjoy a joke from time to time. The members of the application committee will ask you questions, but your answers won’t only be oral. The committee will not only pay attention to what you say, but also to how you say it! Body language will determine first if it clicks, and sometimes all it takes is just a few seconds. Everybody uses body language, but it takes place mostly at a subconscious(下意识的)level. Using body language appropriately, you can definitely increase your chances of getting a job.

Ling Ling is worried as Sept 7, the last day for her to enter the university, approaches. “My dad doesn’t want to pay for my university education as he believes the investment in higher education can’t be regained, ”the 19-year-old told the reporter.
Ling was born in a small village in northern Sichuan. Upon completion of their primary school education, her parents started a small business. Five years ago, they moved to Chengdu, the provincial capital of Sichuan, with Ling and her younger brother. They have purchased an apartment and a small shop there. “My family isn’t short of money. My father doesn’t want me to pursue university education because he thinks it not worthwhile going to university, ”Ling said.
Her father estimates it will cost a total of 80, 000 yuan in tuition fees and living expenses to finish a four-year university education. If his daughter works for four years instead, she can earn at least 80, 000 yuan in four years. With that money, she can start a small business. “In my neighborhood, at least 10 university graduates cannot find jobs and stay at home, ”her father told the reporter. He said as a primary school graduate, he earned more than many university graduates with his small business. He said his view that attending a university is not worthwhile is not groundless, pointing that nearly 7 million students graduated from institutions of higher learning nationwide this year and their employment situation is not so good.
To persuade her father to support her higher education financially, Ling has done many things but in vain. After her story spread online, a survey was made on the website to seek netizens’ views. More than 10, 000 netizens replied and 71 percent supported her father’s view. About 50 percent thought society was a good university and about 20 percent thought a person could improve himself or herself anywhere.
Despite strong opposition from survey respondents, 55 readers of them said higher education could broaden one’s horizons. They want to help Ling financially since she cannot borrow money from her relatives who share her father’s view.
5. Why doesn’t her father support Ling’s higher education?
A. Because her family is short of money.
B. Because she has to enter a local university.
C. Because he thinks it not worthwhile going to university.
D. Because Ling’s father is a businessman.
6. What’s the main idea of the passage?
A. University worthless causes heated discussion.
B. University will cost much money in tuition fees and living expenses.
C. University students’ employment situation is bad.
D. Society is a good university.
7. According to Ling’s father’s view, their family could at least benefit
yuan from her work instead of university in four years.
A. 80, 000 B. 160, 000
C. 10, 000 D. 18, 000
8. Which of the following can be inferred from the last paragraph of the passage?
A. Ling is likely to go to university.
B. Ling will start a small business.
C. Ling will give in.
D. Ling doesn’t know how to deal with the situation.
C
On a sunny day last August, Tim heard some shouting. Looking out to the sea carefully, he saw a couple of kids in a rowboat were being pulled out to sea.
Two 12-year-old boys, Christian and Jack, rowed out a boat to search for a football. Once they’d rowed beyond the calm waters, a beach umbrella tied to the boat caught the wind and pulled the boat into open water. The pair panicked and tried to row back to shore. But they were no match for it and the boat was out of control.
Tim knew it would soon be swallowed by the waves.
“Everything went quiet in my head, ”Tim recalls(回忆). “I was trying to figure out how to swim to the boys in a straight line. ”
Tim took off his clothes and jumped into the water. Every 500 yards or so, he raised his head to judge his progress. “At one point, I considered turning back, ”he says. “I wondered if I was putting my life at risk. ”After 30 minutes of struggling, he was close to yell to the boys, “Take down the umbrella! ”
Christian made much effort to take down the umbrella. Then Tim was able to catch up and climb aboard the boat. He took over rowing, but the waves were almost too strong for him.
“Let’s aim for the pier(码头), ”Jack said. Tim turned the boat toward it. Soon afterward, waves crashed over the boat, and it began to sink. “Can you guys swim? ”he cried. “A little bit, ”the boys said.
Once they were in the water, Tim decided it would be safer and faster for him to pull the boys toward the pier. Christian and Jack were wearing life jackets and floated on their backs. Tim swam toward land as water washed over the boys’ faces.
“Are we almost there? ”they asked again and again. “Yes, ”Tim told them each time.
After 30 minutes, they reached the pier.
9. Why did the two boys go to the sea?
A. To go boat rowing.
B. To get back their football.
C. To swim in the open water.
D. To test the umbrella as a sail.
10. What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 2 refer to?
A. The beach. B. The water.
C. The boat. D. The wind.
11. Why did Tim raise his head regularly?
A. To take in enough fresh air.
B. To consider turning back or not.
C. To check his distance from the boys.
D. To ask the boys to take down the umbrella.
12. How did the two boys finally reach the pier?
A. They were dragged to the pier by Tim.
B. They swam to the pier all by themselves.
C. They were washed to the pier by the waves.
D. They were carried to the pier by Tim on his back.

阅读下面短文，并根据题目要求用英语回答问题(请注意问题后的词数要求)。
Some years ago industries had more freedom than they have now, and they did not need to be as careful as they must today. They did not need to worry a lot about the safety of the new products that they developed. They took little notice of the health and safety of the people who worked for them. Often new products were dangerous for the people who used them and the conditions in the work place had very bad effects on the health of the workers.
Of course, sometimes there were real disasters which attracted the attention of governments and which showed the need for changes. Also scientists who were doing research into the health of workers sometimes produced information which governments could not ignore. At such times, there were inquiries into the causes of the disasters or the problems. New safety rules were often introduced as a result of these inquiries, however, the new rules came too late to protect the people who died or who became seriously ill.
Today many governments have special departments which protect customers and workers. In the U. S. , for example, there is a department which examines new planes and gives warnings about possible problems. It also makes the rules that aircraft producers must follow. Another department controls the foods and drugs that companies sell. The third department looks at the places where people work, and then reports any companies that are breaking the laws which protect the health and safety of workers. Of course, new government departments and new laws cannot prevent every accident or illness, but they are having some good results. Our work places are safer and cleaner than before. The planes and cars which we use for travel are better. Producers are thinking more about the safety and health of the people who buy and use their products.

1. 【解析】第一句的have→had。根据事情发生的时间，这里应该用过去时态。
2. 【解析】第二句的for→of。It’s kind of sb. to do sth. 为固定用法，因为kind表示人的品质，故用of。
3. 【解析】第三句的Unfortunate→Unfortunately。这里用副词作状语。
4. 【解析】第四句的第一个for→as。as a result固定搭配。
5. 【解析】第四句的mile→miles。mile是可数名词，并且前面是six。
6. 【解析】第五句的unless→until。后面是一个时间状语从句，意思是我们一直等到路通了。
7. 【解析】第六句的here→there。叙述的是别的地方发生的事，所以用there。
8. 【解析】第六句的第二个car前加a。car不是特指，并且是可数名词，所以前面要加a。

⑤The war __________ (last) about five months by September 1, 2011.
⑥She said she ________ (see) the film before. was called outhad lastedhad seen【语法精点】
一、基础点拨
（一）一般过去时
1. 一般过去时表示过去某一个时刻或某一段时间内发生的动作或存在的状态，与yesterday，last week，in 1949，a few days ago，the other day，at one time等表示过去的时间状语连用。
*I had two eggs and a glass of milk for breakfast this morning. 今天早上早饭时我吃了两个鸡蛋，喝了一杯牛奶。
【名师点津】一般过去时的时间状语可以是for+时间段，表示在过去某一段时间内做了某事，此时间段到过去某个时间为止，而不是持续到现在。 2. 表示过去的习惯动作，常与often，usually，seldom等频度副词连用；used to do和would do表示过去常常。
*I often went to school on foot last term.
上学期我经常步行去上学。
3. 在时间、条件、让步、方式等状语从句中，用一般过去时表示过去将来。
*He told me if I finished my work I could leave.
他告诉我，如果我完成了工作就可以离开。 4. since 引导的时间状语从句中的谓语用一般过去时。
*You have changed a lot since we last met.
自从上次我们见面以来，你变化很大。
5. wish和would rather后的宾语从句中用一般过去时表示与现在事实相反。
*The little boy wishes he were a superman in the film.
这个小男孩希望他是电影中的超人。 （二）过去进行时
1. 过去进行时表示在过去某一时刻或某一段时间内正在进行或持续进行的动作。
*We were having a class meeting from 7 p. m. to 9 p. m. last night.
昨天晚上7点到9点我们正在开班会。
2. 与always，constantly，continually 等连用，具有浓厚的褒贬色彩。
*You were always asking some stupid questions at the party last night.
昨晚在晚会上你总是问一些愚蠢的问题。(表示不满) 3. go，come，start，stay，leave等动词的过去进行时可以表示过去将要发生的动作。
*She asked me if/whether I was starting the next day.
她问我是否第二天动身。 （三）过去完成时
1. 表示在过去某个动作或某个具体的时间之前已经发生、完成的动作或存在的状态，即表示“过去的过去”。
*When I woke up, it had already stopped raining.
我醒来时雨已经停了。
2. 过去完成时用在 “no sooner. . . than” 和 “hardly. . . when” 等句型的主句中；而从句用一般过去时，no sooner，hardly 放在句首时用部分倒装。
*Hardly had we reached home from school when it began to rain.
我们刚放学回到家就下起了雨。 3. 有些动词，如hope，wish，expect，think，intend，mean，suppose 等，用过去完成时表示“原本打算做而未做某事”。
*We had hoped to finish it on time but we failed.
我们本来希望按时完成这件事的，但我们没有做到。 二、难点突破
（一）一般过去时与过去进行时的区别
1. 一般过去时常表示动作已经结束或完成，而过去进行时却表示动作在持续或尚未完成。
*I wrote a letter last night.
昨晚我写了一封信。（信已写完）
*I was writing a letter last night.
我昨晚一直在写信。（信或许未写完） 2. 一般过去时表示动作只做一次，而过去进行时则表示反复或持续发生的动作。
*He knocked at the door.
他敲了敲门。（强调一次性）
*He was knocking at the door.
他不停地敲门。（强调多次性） （二）一般过去时与现在完成时的区别
1. 一般过去时只表示过去的某个时间里发生的动作，与现在没有联系，而现在完成时则强调过去的动作对现在的影响。
*Tom left here a few minutes ago.
汤姆几分钟前走了。
*Tom has left. 汤姆已经走了。（他现在不在这儿了） 2. 两者都可表示从过去开始并延续了一段时间的动作，但一般过去时说明动作已经结束，而现在完成时则表示动作可能还要继续下去。
*He worked in the factory for 8 years.
他曾在那家工厂工作了八年。（现在已不在那家工厂工作了）
*He has worked in the factory for 8 years.
他已经在那家工厂工作了八年。（现在仍在那家工厂工作）【高考体验】
动词时态解题步骤：
1. 分析句子，看是否缺少谓语动词；
2. 找出句子的关键时间状语或根据语境推出动
作发生的时间；
3. 初步确定选项；
4. 将选项代入句子中，确定答案。1. (2013·安徽高考)I’m calling about the apartment you ________ the other day. Could you tell me more about it?
A. advertised B. had advertised
C. are advertising D. will advertise
解题关键: 时间状语the other day。
思路分析: 选A。考查时态。句意: 我正要打电话了解你前几天登广告的公寓。你能告诉我关于它更多的情况吗? 由句中the other day(前几天)可知advertise这一动作发生在过去, 应用一般过去时。2. (2013·湖南高考)—I don’t understand why you didn’t go to the lecture yesterday afternoon.
—I’m so sorry. But I ________ my homework.
A. had done B. was doing
C. would do D. am doing
解题关键: 时间状语yesterday afternoon表示过去。
思路分析: 选B。考查时态。答句句意: 很抱歉。但是我当时正在做作业。根据题干中的时间状语yesterday afternoon可知应用过去时态, 结合句意可知应用过去进行时。3. (2013·江苏高考)—What about your self-drive trip yesterday?
—Tiring! The road is being widened, and we ______ a rough ride.
A. had B. have
C. would have D. have had
解题关键: 时间状语yesterday和语境。思路分析: 选A。考查时态。句意: ——你们昨天的自驾游怎么样啊? ——太累人了! 那条道路正在被拓宽, 我们一路上车开得颠簸不平。根据问句中的yesterday可知谈论的是过去的事情, 答句中“我们一路上车开得颠簸不平”也表示过去的事情, 因此用一般过去时had。此题中易受“The road is being widened”的误导而选用现在的时态。“道路被拓宽”不是短时间内结束的动作, 昨天正在被拓宽, 今天仍然在被拓宽, 因此使用现在进行时的被动式。4. (2013·江西高考)I ______ to visit you later that day, but I had to phone and cancel.
A. come B. came
C. am coming D. was coming
解题关键: 时间状语later that day和come的用法。
思路分析: 选D。考查动词时态。句意: 我那一天本来想晚些时候拜访你, 但是又不得不打电话取消了。此处用趋向性动词come的“过去进行时”表示“过去将来时”。5. (2013·辽宁高考)He was unhappy when he sold his guitar. After all, he ______ it for a very long time.
A. has had B. had had
C. has D. had
解题关键: 语境和时间状语for a very long time。
思路分析: 选B。考查时态。句意: 当他卖掉他的吉他的时候不高兴, 毕竟, 他拥有它已经很长一段时间了。卖掉吉他和不高兴这两个动作都用了一般过去时, 而拥有吉他一定是在这之前的动作, 所以要用过去完成时。6. (2013·山东高考)I didn’t think I’d like the movie, but actually it ________ pretty good.
A. has been B. was
C. had been D. would be
解题关键: but之前句子所使用的时态。
思路分析: 选B。考查时态。句意: 我认为我不会喜欢这部电影, 但实际上电影非常好。结合语境及didn’t, 动作发生在过去, 陈述一种客观事实, 不强调对现在或过去的影响或结果, 也不表将来, 应用一般过去时。7. (2013·陕西高考)Jim _______ a late night film at home when, right in the middle of a thrilling scene, the television went blank.
A. watched B. had watched
C. was watching D. would be watching
解题关键: 掌握“was/were doing. . . when. . . ”固定搭配。
思路分析: 选C。考查时态。句意: 吉姆正在家里看午夜电影, 恰好演到一个惊险场面时, 电视没影像了。“was/were doing. . . when. . . ”为固定搭配, 意思是“正在做……这时……”, 故选C。Ⅰ. 单项填空
1. (2013·安庆高二检测)I _____ in the street when a stranger stopped me.
A. walked B. was walking
C. has walked D. had walked
【解析】选B。考查时态。句意: 我正在街上走着, 突然一个陌生人拦住了我。“was/were doing. . . when. . . ”表示过去一个动作正在进行, 就在那时发生了另一个动作, when意为“这时/那时, 突然”。2. (2013·南京高二检测)We ______ very early so we packed the night before.
A. leave B. had left
C. were leaving D. have left
【解析】选C。考查时态。句意: 我们一早出发, 所以我们前一晚就收拾行李。根据packed可排除A、D两项; 选项B为过去完成时, 表示出发发生在收拾行李之前, 与句意不符。leave可以用进行时表示将来时, 所以答案为C项。3. (2013·临汾高二检测)When I got on the bus, I______I had left my wallet at home.
A. was realizing B. realized
C. have realized D. would realize
【解析】选B。考查时态。句意: 当我上了公共汽车时, 我意识到我把钱包忘在家里了。从句子的主干分析可知, 句子要用过去时态, 与后面的had left相对应, 主句谓语动词用一般过去时符合语境。故选B。4. I was just going to cut my rose bushes but someone ______ it. Was it you?
A. has done B. had done
C. would do D. will do
【解析】选B。考查时态。句意: 我正打算去修剪我的玫瑰丛, 但有人已经剪了, 是你剪的吗? 从语境可以判断, 这里需用过去完成时表示其动作先于前一分句was just going to cut的动作, 故选B项。5. (2013·石家庄高二检测)I felt very tired when I got home, and I ______ straight to bed.
A. go B. went
C. had gone D. have gone

A. had done B. did
C. would do D. were doing
【解析】选A。考查时态。句意: 我用了很长时间才完全意识到他们为我所做的一切。由句意可知, 他们为我做事发生在我意识到之前, 我意识到用的是一般过去时, 所以他们为我做事应是“过去的过去”, 因此应该用过去完成时。故选A。8. —Have you finished reading Jane Eyre?
—No, I ______ my homework all day yesterday.
A. was doing B. would do
C. has done D. do
【解析】选A。考查时态。句意: ——你读完《简·爱》了吗? ——没有, 我昨天一直在做家庭作业。答句要表明昨天一整天“我”是在做什么, 表示在过去某一时刻或某一阶段正在发生的动作用过去进行时, 因此选择A项。9. Excuse me. I ______ I was blocking your way.
A. didn’t realize B. don’t realize
C. haven’t realized D. wasn’t realizing
【解析】选A。考查时态。句意: 对不起。我没有意识到我挡了你的路。根据I was blocking your way可知主句的动作发生在过去, 故可排除B、C两项; realize在此处意为“认识到”, 表示此意时, 不能用于进行时态。故选A项。10. I walked slowly through the market, where people ______ all kinds of fruits and vegetables. I studied the prices carefully and bought what I needed.

A
We bet that on cold wintry days, many of you love to stay in your warm home and, every now and then, come out into the kitchen for a snack. Unfortunately, plenty of creepy-crawly critters(爬虫生物)like to do the same thing!
Winter is the time when bugs(虫子)invade your house without an invitation. The season can be tough for such creatures. In winter the air is cold, the ground is hard and many trees have no leaves. So bugs do what they have to do to survive.
Monarch butterflies head south to warmer climates. Ants crowd in deep underground colonies and eat food they have been storing all year. Many insects go into a deep sleep called diapause. There’re different kinds of diapauses, but all are similar to hibernation, a time when bigger animals become inactive in the cold. Insects go into an inactive period, too, but it often isn’t when the temperature drops.
They rely on more dependable signals in the environment. For example, many insects can tell how much sunlight there is each day. They use that to tell themselves when to shut down. Bugs are cold-blooded, meaning that their inside temperature is the same as the outside. They can’t move much when it gets below 40 degrees Fahrenheit. So they search for any warm place.
They’re looking for protection. These guys have been doing this for 300 million years, so they don’t really know they’re coming into your house. The home is a recent event in terms of their evolutionary behavior. They enter through tiny cracks or come in unnoticed on your clothes or shoes. Remember that they may be invading your homes for warmth and food, but they don’t care about humans.

D. What Does Diapause Mean?
B
The morning had been a disaster. My tooth was aching. And I’d been in an argument with a friend. Her words still hurt: “The trouble with you is that you won’t put yourself in my place. Can’t you see things from my point of view? ”I shook my head stubbornly—and felt the ache in my tooth. I’d thought I could hold out till my dentist came back from holiday, but the pain was really unbearable. I started calling the dentists in the phone book, but no one could see me immediately. Finally, at about lunchtime, I got lucky.
“If you come by right now, ”the receptionist said, “the dentist will fit you in. ”
I took my purse and keys and rushed to my car. But suddenly I began to doubt about the dentist. What kind of dentist would be so eager to treat someone at such short notice? Why wasn’t he as busy as the others?
In the dentist’s office, I sat down and looked around. I saw nothing but the bare walls and I became even more worried. The assistant noticed my nervousness and placed her warm hand over my ice-cold one.
When I told her my fears, she laughed and said, “Don’t worry. The dentist is very good. ”
“How long do I have to wait for him? ”I asked impatiently.
“Come on, he is coming. Just lie down and relax. And enjoy the artwork, ”the assistant said.
“The artwork? ”I was puzzled.
The chair went back. Suddenly I smiled. There was a beautiful picture, right where I could enjoy it: on the ceiling. How considerate the dentist was! At that moment, I began to understand what my friend meant by her words.
What a relief!

The Benefits of Keeping a Journal(日志)
If you want to grow, one important thing you should do is keeping a journal. It may seem simple, but it can make a big difference in your life. I have been keeping journals for years. Writing all the lessons I learn and all the ideas I get has become a habit for me. 1 Here are some benefits you will get by keeping a journal.
◆It prevents you from losing an idea. Have you ever got an idea only to lose it later because you didn’t write it down? 2 But then I developed the habit of writing down every idea that came into my mind as soon as possible. If I’m away from my computer, I usually write it down on a piece of paper that I bring wherever I go. I will then transfer the idea to the journal in my computer.
◆It helps you review all the lessons you’ve learned. By reviewing your journal, you can quickly see the lessons you’ve learned and the ideas you’ve got. 3 You can use the ideas to propel(鞭策) yourself forward.
◆ 4 After keeping a journal for years, you can look back at it and see how far you’ve gone. Things that were big problems in the past might seem small today. The raw ideas you had in the past might have been realized today.
◆It helps you expand your ideas. When you try to come up with a sentence to express an idea, you are thinking actively about it. 5 In the end, you will expand your ideas.
A. I often experienced that myself.
B. It trains you to express your thoughts.
C. It allows you to see your progress over time.
D. Just use whatever tool you feel comfortable with.
E. Thinking actively helps you connect your idea to another idea.
F. And to be honest, I can’t imagine what my life would be like without it.
G. Then you can do whatever necessary to avoid repeating the same mistakes.

Ⅱ. 阅读理解
A
I told my friend Graham that I often cycle two miles from my house to the town centre but unfortunately there is a big hill on the route. He replied, “You mean fortunately. ”He explained that I should be glad of the extra exercise that the hill provided.
My attitude to the hill has now changed. I used to grumble as I approached it but now I tell myself the following. This hill will exercise my heart and lungs. It will help me to lose weight and get fit. It will mean that I live longer. This hill is my friend. Finally I comfort myself with the thought of all those silly people who pay money to go to a gym and sit on stationary exercise bicycles when I can get the same value for free. I have a smile of satisfaction as I reach the top of the hill.
Problems are there to be faced and overcome. We cannot achieve anything with an easy life. Helen Keller was the first deaf and blind person to gain a university degree. Her activism and writing proved inspirational. She wrote, “Character cannot be developed in ease and quiet. Only through experiences of trial and suffering can the soul be strengthened, vision cleared, ambition inspired and success achieved. ”
One of the main determinants of success in life is our attitude towards adversity(逆境). From time to time we all face hardships, problems, accidents, afflictions and difficulties. Some are of our making but many confront us through no fault of our own. While we cannot choose the adversity we can choose our attitude towards it.
Douglas Bader was 21 when in 1931 he had both legs cut off following a flying accident. He was determined to fly again and went on to become one of the leading flying aces in the Battle of Britain with 22 aerial victories over the Germans. He was an inspiration to others during the war. He said, “Don’t listen to anyone who tells you that you can’t do this or that. That’s nonsense. Make up your mind, you’ll never use crutches(拐杖)or a stick, then have a go at everything. Go to school, join in all the games you can. Go anywhere you want to. But never, never let them persuade you that things are too difficult or impossible. ”
The biographies(传记)of great people are full of examples of how they took steps to overcome the difficulties they faced. The common thread is that they did not become depressed. They chose their attitude. They chose to be positive. They took on the challenge. They won.
Nevertheless, there is still the problem of how you change your attitude towards adversity.
1. Which of the following is TRUE according to the author of the passage?
A. Climbing hills on bicycles is the best way to take exercise.
B. People are silly to pay to go to the gym.
C. Those who want to achieve success can’t expect to live an easy life.
D. People’s attitude towards adversity is the only factor that determines whether they will succeed.
2. By quoting what Douglas Bader said, the author intends to tell us“ ”
A. Failure is the mother of success.
B. A fall into the pit, a gain in your wit.
C. If you venture nothing, you will have nothing.
D. Nothing is difficult to the man who will try.
3. Following this passage, the author will further talk about .
A. how his friend helped him to change his attitude towards the adversity he faced
B. what steps to take to change your attitude towards the adversity you face
C. what great people have in common
D. why it is important to keep optimistic in face of adversity
4. Which of the following can best fun_ction as the title of the passage?
A. Face Adversity with a Smile
B. Different Attitudes towards Adversity
C. Nothing is Impossible
D. Life Is Full of Adversity
B
About 30 years ago, I left Cuba for the United States with my son. After getting settled finally in Brunswick, New Jersey, I enrolled(注册)my son in kindergarten. Several weeks later, my son’s teacher asked me to meet him at his office.
In the teacher’s office, an exchange of greetings was followed by his questions: “Is your son mentally retarded(弱智的)? Does he suffer from any kind of mental disability? ”
Was he talking about my wonderful Scola? No, no, it can’t be. What a helpless, lonely moment! I told him that Scola was a quiet, sweet little boy, instead. I asked him why he was asking me all these questions.
My son could not follow the teacher’s directions, he told me, and thus, Scola was disrupting the class. Didn’t he know my son did not speak English yet?
He was angry; “Why hasn’t your son been taught to speak English? Don’t you speak English at home? ”
No, I didn’t speak English at home, I replied. I was sure my son would learn English in a couple of months, and I didn’t want him to forget his native language. Well, wrong answer! What kind of person would not speak in English to her son at home and at all time? “Are you one of those people who come to this country to save dollars and send them back to their country, never wanting to be a part of this society? ”
Needless to say, I tried to tell him I was not one of “those people”. Then he told me the meeting was over, and I left.
As I had expected, my son learned to speak English fluently before the school year was over. He went on to graduate from college and got a job, earning close to six figures. He travels widely and leads a well-adjusted, contented life. And he has benefited from being bilingual(双语的).
Speaking more than one language allows people to communicate with others; it teaches people about other cultures and other places—something very basic and obviously lacking in the “educator” I met in New Jersey.
5. The teacher asked the author to his office .
A. to discuss Scola’s in-class performance
B. to get Scola enrolled in kindergarten
C. to find a language partner for Scola
D. to work out a study plan for Scola
6. What does the underlined word “disrupting” in Paragraph4 probably mean?
A. Breaking. B. Following.
C. Attending. D. Disturbing.
7. The author’s attitude towards being bilingual may best be described as .
A. critical B. casual
C. positive D. passive
8. This text is likely to be selected from a book of .
A. medicine B. education
C. geography D. history

根据文章内容，从下框的A~F选项中选出能概括每一段主题的最佳选项。选项中有一项为多余选项。
A. Get moving
B. Start with soup
C. Take a warm bath
D. Spend time being social
E. How to warm you right up
F. Ways to stay warm in winter
1.
At the first signs of oncoming winter, many of us look for any excuse we can get to stay in bed. But hibernating（冬眠）indoors isn’t the only way to stay warm—here are far healthier ways to heat up, many of which even come with added health benefits.
2.
Spending time socializing could make you feel physically warmer than being alone. A study conducted by the University of Toronto researchers found that social absence literally feels cold. So despite the cold temperatures and the temptation to hibernate, make an effort to spend some time with your friends or partners.
3.
Make an effort to exercise and you’ll get benefits and maintain a healthy weight. Moving will increase blood circulation throughout your body, which can help you stay focused, handle stressful situations and, of course, warm up. That’s because when it’s cold out, circulation in parts of the body, like the fingers, decreases, which is why those extremities（四肢）are often the first to feel cold when the temperature drops.
4.
Like tea, a hot soup can warm you from the inside out. But it could do more than help you heat up—soup is filling, which means it could help if you’re trying to cut calories. A 2007 Pennsylvania State study found that participants who first ate soup before their lunch main dish reduced their calorie intake by 20 percent, compared to the soup-less people. Start with a fiber-filled soup to cut your calorie-intake and warm up.
5.
Escape the cold with a warm soak in the tub and sleep better, too. That’s because our body temperatures naturally cool down around the time we should go to sleep. Health. com reports that taking a nice warm bath a couple hours before bedtime can raise your body temperature, soak your tension away and help you feel more relaxed.

7. 【解析】选C。逻辑推理题。根据“She said the next day she would visit the

again there. . . ”可知, 她说她第二天要去作者一家所在的地方参观, 所以作者应当是非常期待与她再次见面。
8. 【解析】选C。逻辑推理题。上文提到作者与她用法语交流, 由此可推知, 他喜欢借此练习自己的法语。
9. 【解析】选B。逻辑推理题。根据语境“But the next day I did not see her. I
she had said that she would leave the island the day after. ”可知, 第二天作者没有见到她, 但作者记得她说要离开这个岛屿了。此处作者回忆之前和她的谈话。
10. 【解析】选A。逻辑推理题。根据上文“She said the next day she would visit the
we were in. . . ”及“But the next day I did not see her. ”可知, 作者原以为第二天可以再见到她, 结果却没见到, 所以他猜测自己可能错过与她见面的机会了。
11. 【解析】选D。背景常识题。根据语境可知, 三天后作者再次见到她, 她说要乘当天夜里的渡船, 应该是正在寻找离港口近的住的地方。
12. 【解析】选B。逻辑推理题。根据下文“. . . she had difficulty taking her suitcase to the port herself. ”可知, 她自己拿着手提箱去港口不方便, 这与上文应该构成因果关系。因此, 此处需要一个表示原因的连词引导句子, 说明理由。
13. 【解析】选D。逻辑推理题。根据下文“I suggested another hotel which would cost her less. . . ”可知, 作者提议住另一家旅馆可以少花点钱, 说明她提到的那家旅馆比较昂贵。

19. 【解析】选C。逻辑推理题。根据下文“. . . for my parents brought me up to give others a helping hand. ”可知, 因为作者的父母一直就教育作者要经常帮助需要帮助的人, 所以他认为自己很自然地做一些帮助他人的事情。
20. 【解析】选A。逻辑推理题。得到帮助的她一定会是一脸愉快的神情, 作者看到这样的神情才会更加想要帮助他人。
Ⅱ. 【文章大意】本文围绕面对逆境我们应保持乐观的态度这一话题而展开。
1. 【解析】选C。细节理解题。根据文章第三段中的We cannot achieve anything with an easy life. 可判断C项是作者的观点。
2. 【解析】选D。推理判断题。选项A的含义为“失败乃成功之母”; 选项B的含义为“吃一堑, 长一智”; 选项C的含义为“不入虎穴, 焉得虎子”; 选项D的含义为“世上无难事, 只要肯攀登”。D项含义与所引用的话(倒数第三段)的含义以及文章主旨大意相符。
3. 【解析】选B。推理判断题。根据文章最后一段中的there is still the problem of how you change your attitude towards adversity即面对逆境如何改变态度仍是个大问题可推断B项符合要求。
4. 【解析】选A。主旨大意题。本文围绕面对逆境我们应保持乐观的态度这一话题而展开, 所以选项A“笑对逆境”适合作为本文标题。
【文章大意】本文是一篇记叙文。作者通过讲述与儿子的老师在办公室的谈话及儿子找到了高薪的工作的事, 证明让儿子保留母语的想法是正确的。
5. 【解析】选A。推理判断题。根据文章第四段中的My son could not follow the teacher’s directions, he told me, and thus, Scola was disrupting the class. 可知: 儿子不听老师的话, 还扰乱课堂。这些都是儿子在课堂上的表现。故选A。
6. 【解析】选D。词义猜测题。根据文章第四段中的My son could not follow the teacher’s directions, he told me, and thus, Scola was disrupting the class. 可知, and前后是并列关系, 内容相近。所以, 根据前文的“他不听老师的指导”可以推知disrupt意为“扰乱”。故D正确。
7. 【解析】选C。观点态度题。根据文章最后一段的Speaking more than one language allows people to communicate with others; it teaches people about other cultures and other places. . . 可以推知作者认为: 讲一种以上的语言(不仅)让人们和其他人进行交流, 还教会人们了解其他的地方和文化, 这是一些最基本的东西。儿子就得益于双语技能。由此可知作者持积极的态度。故C正确。critical批判的; casual漫不经心的; passive消极的, 它们都不合文意。
8. 【解析】选B。推理判断题。根据文章内容可知, 文章通篇讲述的是有关教育的话题。所以, 本文应该是从有关教育的书中节选的。

第三部分 阅读理解（共两节，满分40分）
第一节（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分）
A
Britain’s seed bank, the only one in the world aiming to collect all of the planet’s wild plant species, has reached its goal of banking 10 percent by 2010.
The Millennium Seed Bank Project, run by Kew Gardens—one of the oldest botanical gardens—will officially deposit the 24, 200th species on Thursday, a pink, wild banana from China.
More than 50 countries are now on board with Kew’s giant task but vast places of the globe, including India and Brazil, still need to join in and donate seeds, director Paul Smith said.
The seed bank is one of the largest and most diverse in the world with more than 1. 5 billion seeds. Its goal is to help protect the planet’s bio-diversity during a time of climate change.
The wild banana seed is under threat of extinction(灭绝)in Southwest China from agricultural development. It is a vital food source for Asian elephants and important for growing bananas for human consumption.
Stored at minus-20 degrees centigrade, the seeds can last for thousands of years and await the day that scientists hope never comes—when the species no longer exist in the wild.
It is a race against time, Smith said, because in the last decade alone, 20 plants held in the bank have already been wiped out in the wild. He estimates that between a third and a quarter will become extinct this century.
“It is urgent and it is happening now. An area, the size of England, is cleared of primary vegetation(植被)every year, ”Smith said.
Because most of the world’s food and medicines come from nature, protecting wild plant species is quite important, scientists say. There are already many other seed banks safeguarding food crops, which only account for 0. 6 percent of plant diversity.
For Kew’s next goal—to collect a quarter of wild varieties by 2020—the botanists need 10 million pounds a year, or a further 100 million pounds on top of the 40 million they have already been granted.
56. What’s the final purpose of the Britain’s seed bank?
A. To collect enough money for the project.
B. To safeguard food crops.
C. To protect wild plants from extinction.
D. To help scientists study wild plants.
57. The wild banana seed in China is in danger because of _______ .
A. the expanding of farming work
B. the climate change in this area
C. the large number of Asian elephants
D. humans’ large consumption
58. We can learn from the passage that _________ .
A. the seeds in the bank can be used now and then all over the world
B. India and Brazil haven’t joined in the Seed Bank Project at present
C. there is only one seed bank in the world at present
D. the wild plants in places like India and China will never die out
59. What does the underlined word “It” in Paragraph 7 refer to?
A. The extinction of plant species.
B. The Millennium Seed Bank Project.
C. Britain’s seed bank.
D. Kew Gardens’ next goal.
B
I have a new hero. It is G. M. Hennen. I found him in the old newspapers as I was doing my research for the column A Look Back in History.
In 1958, he retired as a newspaper carrier from the Sherman Herald Democrat. He was 77 years old and had delivered four million copies of the Democrat. He had gone through 17 automobiles and had thrown on average 400 newspapers a day, six days a week. He drove 100 miles a day, including the day he collected.
Before he was a newspaper carrier, he was also a teacher and a construction worker.
He opened the first motor delivery route in the newspaper’s history. Driving a Model T Ford, his route consisted of Pottsboro, Gordonville, Sadler and Southmayd. Before he started in delivery, he solicited(征求) subscriptions(订阅) riding horseback over the county.
Mr. Hennen had only one wreck in 30 years. The car spun(疾驶) out of control and flipped on its top. That didn’t stop him. A man with a truck used a tow rope to flip the car back over and tied the doors shut, leaving Mr. Hennen to continue on his way. Now that was determination!
Mr. Hennen told of the time his headlights went out as he was delivering newspapers. He borrowed a kerosene lantern(煤油灯) from a farmer to light the way and continued his route.
What a story! I complain when I have to drive to work when it is snowing, and I only have to travel three miles. I could never be that tough.
60. What does the underlined word “wreck” mean according to the fifth paragraph?
A. Luck. B. Success.
C. Failure. D. Accident.
61. What do we learn from the underlined sentence?
A. Mr. Hennen was a successful worker.
B. Mr. Hennen was devoted to his job.
C. Mr. Hennen was not afraid of death.
D. Mr. Hennen was silly.
62. What is the main idea of the text?
A. Mr. Hennen had several jobs.
B. Mr. Hennen was once faced with a wreck.
C. Mr. Hennen loved his newspaper carrying work.
D. Mr. Hennen had delivered four million copies of the Democrat.
C
Last night’s meteor (流星) shower left many people in the community dissatisfied and demanding answers. According to Gabe Rothschild，Emerald Valley’s mayor, people gathered in the suburbs of the city, carrying heavy telescopes, expecting to watch the brightly burning meteors passing through the sky. What they found instead was a sky so brightened by the city’s lights that it darkened the light of the meteors passing overhead.
“My family was so frustrated，” admitted town resident Daune Cosby. “We wanted to make this an unforgettable family outing, but it turned out to be a huge disappointment. ”
Astronomers—scientists who study stars and planets—have been complaining about this problem for decades. They say that light pollution prevents them from seeing objects in the sky that they could see quite easily in the past. They call on people and the government to take measures to fight against it.
There is yet a population besides professional and amateur star observers that suffers even more from light pollution. This population consists of birds, bats, frogs, snakes, etc. For example, outdoor lighting severely affects migrating(迁徙的) birds. According to the International Dark-Sky Association, “100 million birds a year throughout North America die in crashes with lighted buildings and towers. ”
Countless more animal casualties(伤亡) result from the use of artificial lighting. Clearly, people enjoy the benefits of lighting their evenings, but some scientists think it can be harmful to humans, too. They worry that exposure to light while sleeping can increase a person’s chances of getting cancer.
Emerald Valley is only one community that is becoming aware of the negative effects of light pollution. For years, Flagstaff, Arizona, has enforced lighting regulations in its city in order to assist astronomers at the Lowell Observatory. Similar efforts have been made worldwide, and a movement is under way to remind us to turn off lights when we are not using them, so that other creatures can share the night.
63. What do the astronomers complain about?
A. Meteor showers occur less often than before.
B. Their observation equipment is in poor repair.
C. Light pollution has remained unsolved for years.
D. Their eyesight is failing due to artificial lighting.
64. What is the author concerned about according to Paragraph 4?
A. Birds may take other migration paths.
B. Animals’ living habits may change suddenly.
C. Varieties of animals will become sharply reduced.
D. Animals’ survival is threatened by outdoor lighting.
65. Lighting regulations in Flagstaff，Arizona are put into effect to ________ .
A. lessen the chance of getting cancer
B. create an ideal observation condition
C. ensure citizens a good sleep at night
D. enable all creatures to live in harmony
66. What message does the author most want to give us?
A. Saving wildlife is saving ourselves.
B. Great efforts should be made to save energy.
C. Human activities should be environmentally friendly.
D. New equipment should be introduced for space study.
D
It takes more than just practice to become an Olympian. Gold medal performances require some serious nutrition. Have you ever wondered what these successful athletes eat to stay in peak shape?
Keri Glassman, a registered dietitian and founder of Nutritious Life Meals, appeared on “Good Morning America” today to give you a glimpse into the diets of some top athletes. Some of their meals could surprise you.
Crazy Calorie Count
Glassman said Olympians eat a lot of food—quantities that for ordinary people would constitute pigging out. One secret of swimmer Michael Phelps’ astonishing performance in the 2008 Olympics in Beijing was consuming as many as 12, 00 calories in one day.
Athletes can eat like this and not gain any weight because their workouts are intense. According to Glassman, Phelps’ workouts can burn 4, 000 to 6, 000 calories in a day, and those calories must be added in order to train the following day.
Snacking Secrets
Some athletes eat strange foods that improve their performance. Yohan Blake, the Jamaica sprinter and 100-meter world champion, has stolen champion sprinter Usain Bolt’s thunder on the track during the Olympic trials. Asked about how he gets his energy，Blake answered that he eats 16 bananas per day, Glassman said.
Jonathan Horton, the lead gymnast on the US team, has a blood sugar problem. His solution is honey. When he starts to feel shaky at the gym, he takes honey to boost his energy, Glassman said.
Foods for Recovery
What are the best foods to help the body recover after harsh competition?
For Olympic swimmer Ryan Lochte, the recovery meal is grilled chicken breasts with Alfredo sauce, whole-grain spaghetti and a salad with lemon juice and olive oil. Lochte, who recently cut out junk food, candy and soda, has undertaken a strength-training regimen(养生法)that involves flipping tractor tires, and tossing beer kegs, Glassman said.
67. What’s the best title of this passage?
A. Good Diet Makes a True Olympian.
B. Olympians Have Olympic-size Appetites.
C. Olympians’ Strange Eating Habits.
D. The Diet of Some Top Olympic Athletes.
68. What does the underlined sentence probably mean?
A. Ordinary people eat few pigs compared with Olympians.
B. Olympians eat a lot more food than ordinary people.
C. Olympians tend to eat a lot of high-quality food.
D. Olympians eat a large amount of food, just like pigs.
69. Which of the following is NOT the best food to help the body recover?
A. Soda.
B. Olive oil.
C. Whole-grain spaghetti.
D. A salad with lemon juice.
70. The passage is most likely to be found in .
A. a technical report B. a fashion magazine
C. an education column D. a sports newspaper

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。
71 If you are growing tomatoes in your backyard for sale you are producing for the market. You might sell some to your neighbor and some to the local manager of the supermarket. But in either case, you are producing for the market. 72 If people stop buying tomatoes, you will stop producing them.
If you take care of a sick person to earn money, you are producing for the market. If your father is a steel worker or a truck driver or a doctor or a grocer, he is producing goods or service for the market.
73 You may spend money in stores, supermarkets, gas stations and restaurants. Still you are buying from the market. When the local grocer hires you to drive the delivery truck, he is buying your labor in the labor market.
74 But for each person or business that is making and selling something, it is very concrete(具体的). If nobody buys your tomatoes, it won’t be long before you get the message. 75 It is telling you that you are using energies and resources in doing something the market doesn’t want you to do.
A. The market may be something abstract.
B. The sellers are always smarter than buyers.
C. When you spend your income, you are buying things from the market.
D. The market is a concept.
E. One has to make his ends meet when shopping.
F. The market is telling you something.
G. Your efforts are being directed by the market.

I like the Mid-Autumn Festival when I was small girl. In the evening of August 15 of the lunar calendar, my family always sat together in the yard to eat moon cakes or enjoy the beautiful moonlight. Mother would then tell to me the story of the moon fairy Chang’e, that lived in a palace on the moon. I always imagined that myself was Chang’e. When I grew older, however, I was forced to leave home to education. And now I was living alone away from home. The August moon only serves to remind me of the lost happy day I had with my family in the country.

答案:
I like the Mid-Autumn Festival when I was∧small girl. In the evening of
liked a On
August 15 of the lunar calendar, my family always sat together in the yard to eat moon cakes or enjoy the beautiful moonlight. Mother would then tell to me the story
and
of the moon fairy Chang’e, that lived in a palace on the moon. I always imagined that
who
myself was Chang’e. When I grew older, however, I was forced to leave home to
I for
education. And now I was living alone away from home. The August moon only
am
serves to remind me of the lost happy day I had with my family in the country.
days
1. 【解析】第一句中的like→liked。根据后面的从句when I was. . . 可知此处主句谓语动词也用一般过去时，故将like改为liked。
2. 【解析】第一句中的was后加a。通常名词前要加冠词，此句意为“当我还是一个小女孩时，我就喜欢中秋节”，根据句意要在girl前面加不定冠词a。
3. 【解析】第二句中的In→On。当表示在具体的某天早上或晚上时，morning或evening前面要用介词on。
4. 【解析】第二句中的or→and。根据句意可知坐在院子里吃月饼和赏月是同时进行的动作，而不是“或者”关系，因此要将or改为and。
5. 【解析】第三句中的to删除。tell此处意为“告诉”，是及物动词，告诉某人用tell sb. ，告诉某人某事用tell sb. sth. 。
6. 【解析】第三句中的that→who。分析句子结构可知逗号后面是一个非限制性定语从句，先行词是Chang’e，并在后面的定语从句中作主语，故要用引导词who。
7. 【解析】第四句中的myself→I。imagined 后面是一个宾语从句，myself在此宾语从句中不能作主语，只能用I作主语。
8. 【解析】第五句中的第二个to→for。根据句意“我被迫离家去求学”，for意为“为了”，表示目的。
9. 【解析】第六句中的was→am。根据句中的时间状语now可知句中谓语动词要用与现在有关的时态，此处用现在进行时，故将was改为am。
10. 【解析】第七句中的day→days。the lost happy days意为“逝去的那些快乐的日子”，此处要用复数形式days。
