Passage 1
流行神曲《小苹果》
Hit song Little Appl ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )e became so popular after it came out in late May. In China, you may hear it on a bus, or even in a small village.
　 Little Apple is a ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) song for the movie Old Boys: The Way of Dragon. The song’s huge success has also made more people see the movie. The comedy took US $17 million in its opening four days.
　 “The song Little A ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )pple is so popular. After hearing it, it’s like ‘I’m brainwashed (洗脑)’by the song. So I came to see the film,” a man said.
“It’s a good ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )story. But the reason I’m here at the cinema is the song Little Apple.” Hui Qing, a college student, said.
　 “Many people hav ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )e come to see the movie, so we added more screenings for it. The film now accounts for 20 percent of the total screenings—it’s quite a good performance for a homegrown movie,” a cinema clerk said.
　 Old Boys: The ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )Way of Dragon is based on an online short film called Old Boys. The 40-minute film about youth and dreams got nearly 70 million views on a video website, and was popular among people born in the 1980s or later.
“What is popular ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )online is a good indication (迹象) of what will be popular with young people. And this movie is a good example,” businessman Chen Su said.

Passage 2
汉字书写危机
Can you write the C ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )hinese characters “ganga” (embarrassment) correctly Do you know how to write characters like “tiaozhou” (broom)
　　If you can’t, you ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )’re not alone. Nowadays, most people are typing into computers instead of writing on paper. We type Chinese characters largely according to their pronunciation. The result is to recognize characters without remembering how to write them.
　　In 2013, China ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )Youth Daily did a survey of 2,517 people, in which 98.9 percent said they had once forgotten how to write a common Chinese character.
　　Compared to adults ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ), teenagers are better at writing Chinese characters because they spend more time learning and practicing at school. However, the impact of digital technology cannot be ignored, according to He Yu, head of a research team for Chinese teaching at a Beijing high school.
　　“Many students a ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )re obsessed (沉迷于)with digital devices such as electronic dictionaries and computers to help with their studies. Overuse of these tools will make students too lazy to think and write,” He said. Such worries have brought about a popular TV show titled Chinese Spelling Hero, which focuses on Chinese character writing among teenagers. In April，the Ministry of Education called for better calligraphy (书法) education in schools. Organizations like the China Calligraphers Association are also working to train more teachers in calligraphy.
　　Interestingly, ca ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )lligraphy teachers can’t always avoid the effects of modern technology. Shen Bin is a calligraphy teacher at a primary school in Beijing. She admitted that it’s common for teachers like her to forget certain words.
　　“The calligra ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )phy class is also a good chance for me to remember how to write,” she said.
1. There are ____ people who can’t write “ganga” correctly according to the passage.
A. few B. no C. many D. a few
2. We type Chinese characters largely according to their ____.
A. spelling B. pronunciation C. meaning D. shape
3. In the surv ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ey _____ people said they had once forgotten how to write a common Chinese character.
A. 2,517 B. 98.9 C. 252 D. 2189
4. Which of the following is RIGHT
　　A. Compared to ad ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ults, teenagers are worse at writing Chinese characters.
　　B. Overuse of the ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) electric tools will make students too lazy to think and write.
　　C. The popular TV ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )show titled Chinese Spelling Hero focuses on Chinese character writing among adults.
　　D. Calligraphy teach ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ers can always avoid the effects of modern technology.
5. The best title of the passage is _____.
A. Chinese Spelling Hero B. Write to Remember
C. Interesting Chinese D. Calligraphy Teachers

Passage 4
The UK wants Chin ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ese teachers to try to increase the level of maths in its schools. Chinese students have the highest international test results. There is a huge difference in maths levels between the UK and China. A newspaper said: “The children of cleaners in Shanghai outperform those of UK doctors and lawyers in global maths tests.” The UK will hire (雇佣) 60 of Shanghai's best maths teachers to help improve the ability of one million British students.
The UK is far ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) behind many countries in maths. Poor numeracy (数字计算) costs the UK economy $30 billion a year. Britain’s education minister (教育官员) went on a fact-finding mission to China. She said: “We have some brilliant maths teachers … but what I saw in Shanghai… strengthened my belief that we can learn from them.” She added: “They have a can-do attitude (态度) to maths and I want us to match (与……相匹配) that.” Maths qualifications (资( ) 1.

Passage 5
Superman and Batman ( ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )蝙蝠侠) will be in the same film together for the first time ever. The movie will be in cinemas in the summer of 2015. Zack Snyder, the director of the latest Superman movie “Man Of Steel,” told reporters the news on Saturday. He said many fans of the two superheroes would be happy that the two characters are going to team up. Henry Cavill, who starred (担当主演) in “Man Of Steel,” will play Superman again in the new film. The producers (出品人) don’t yet know which actor will play Batman. Moviegoers are expecting an action-packed adventure that will be like no other superhero film. Mr Snyder said he could not give away any secrets about the story because the script hasn’t been written yet.
The movie compan ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )y Warner Bros. hopes the Superman-Batman duo (二人组) will be as successful as the 2012 film "The Avengers". That movie made $1.5 billion worldwide and successfully brought together the main characters （角色）owned by Marvel Comics. Warner Bros. and DC Comics (the owners of Superman and Batman) have spent many years trying to agree to the new film. Snyder told reporters just how great he thought the new movie would be, saying: “Let’s face it, it’s a great challenge for us to make a most exciting story, and we’re sure it will be a great success, since they are the greatest superheroes in the world.”

Passage 6
Britain says ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )it will send ten war ships to Gibraltar on Monday. The ships will make a stop there on their way to the Middle East. Many people think the stopover (中途停留) is a bad time because relations between Britain and Spain have become bad recently. Spain got angry after Gibraltar’s government (直布罗陀政府) put concrete blocks (水泥石块) on the seabed. It said this was to let sea life grow and to stop Spanish boats fishing nearby. Spain then said it might start charging 50 euros (about $67) for people to travel across the border between Gibraltar and Spain. Tensions increased again when Spain started searching people entering Spain as security against terrorism. Motorists had to wait for up to six hours at the border.
Spain gave ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )Gibraltar to Britain in 1713 under the Treaty of Utrecht (乌特勒支条约). It became an important base for Britain’s Royal Navy (英国皇家海军). Gibraltar is a small area of land which covers just 6.8 square kilometers, south of Cadiz. The 430-meter-tall Rock of Gibraltar stands in the center. The population is around 30,000 and most of them are very happy for being a part of British. Many parts of Gibraltar look like a piece of mainland Britain. Spain has argued for many years that Gibraltar should be returned to Spain. Britain's government said that could only happen if the people of Gibraltar vote for (投票) it. The British prime minister (首相) told his Spanish partner: “This problem should not break our relations. However there was a real risk of this happening.”
( ) 1. Spain got angry because Gibraltar put _______ on the seabed.
A. block ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )s B. rods C. nets D. mines
( ) 2. Spain gave Gibraltar to Britain in 1713 under ________.
A. the Trea ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ty of Versailles B. Reinsurance Treaty

( ) 3. Which of the following is TRUE

Passage 7
Being at ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )tacked by killer bees usually only happens in thriller movies or nightmares (噩梦). For a couple in Texas, the nightmare turned into reality (现实) on Wednesday night. Kristen Beauregard, 44, and her boyfriend were in their garden exercising their two ponies (小马). Ms Beauregard told reporters that everything was normal until one of the ponies started kicking and jumping. The animal was very frightened about something. Suddenly she saw a dark cloud in the sky and she realized it was a large group of bees. She said: “It got all dark, like it was night time, there were so many bees.” The bees attacked the couple and their horses.
Luckily they ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )had a swimming pool, so the couple jumped in. Ms Beauregard was stung over 200 times by the bees. Her boyfriend counted over 50 stings on his arms, neck and head. The pool probably saved their lives because the bees could not attack them under the water. Kristen explained how terrifying (令人恐惧的) it was. She said: “We were trying to stand up in the water but every time we stuck our heads out for air, they would cover us and start stinging us. We were trying to breathe and they were stinging us on the face and on the nose.” Unluckily, the two ponies could not escape (逃离) from the bees. They got stung thousands of times. One died on the farm, the other passed away at the vet's clinic (兽医门诊) later that evening.

Passage 9
Reading o ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )r writing text messages (文本信息) while you are walking is dangerous. A new study says it is more dangerous than texting while driving. The study is from the University of Buffalo (布法罗) in the USA. Researchers found that there are more injuries per kilometer to texting pedestrians than there are to texting motorists (开车人). Their report says walking is not as easy as we think it is. We need to focus on many things at the same time to walk safely in a straight line. The research team said that people forget how to walk properly (恰当地), so dangerous things happen to them. They bump into walls and other people, walk into cars, fall over things in the street, and even fall into holes or down stairs.
A University of ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )Buffalo professor said walking is a complex (复杂的) action. He said there are several reasons why texting stops people from walking properly. One reason is that they cannot see the path ahead of them. Another is that they are focused on their fingers on their mobile phone keyboard instead of their feet on the street. A final reason is that their minds are somewhere else and not on thinking about walking from A to B safely. The professor said over 6,000 people visited his hospital last year because they were injured while texting. He said the worst cases are head injuries (受伤). When a pedestrian is thrown into the air after being hit by a car, he/she has nothing to protect the head, and the damage can be serious.

Passage 10
The British Mu ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )seum in London had its most successful year ever in 2013. More than 6.7 million visitors passed through its doors. The previous record of 5.9 million was set in 2008. Over a million more people visited the museum last year than in 2012. The biggest attractions were two big exhibitions. One was Life and Death in Pompeii （庞培）, the other was Herculaneum. The director of the museum said he was very happy that so many people came. He told reporters that many things happened last year. Many exhibits were carried to the museum. He also said online access (网上购票) meant more people decided to visit. He added: “This is truly a dynamic collection that belongs to and is used by a global citizenship.”
The British M ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )useum has many exhibitions about human history and culture. It has about 13 million exhibits from all over the world. Some countries want the museum to return some of them. Greece wants the Elgin Marbles back. They were originally from the Parthenon in Athens （雅典）. China wants the museum to return many things the British took from China in the 19th century, and Egypt wants the Rosetta Stone. The museum first opened to the public in 1759. Back then, only about 75 people a day visited it. They could look at 71,000 objects, including 40,000 printed books, 7,000 manuscripts (手稿), and many stuffed animals (内部填充的动物), birds and insects （昆虫）. There were also very old objects from Egypt, Greece, Rome, the Near East, the Far East, and North and South America.

Passage 11
A new repor ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )t from the American Heart Association says fitness (健康; 身材适中) levels in children are lower today than they were 30 years ago. The researchers (研究员) looked at the result from the past 46 years. The surveys were on more than 25 million children in 28 countries. The research team found that on average, today’s children run one kilometre about one minute slower than their parents did thirty years ago. The results were almost the same for boys and girls. The distance (距离) a child can run is becoming a bit shorter by about 0.5% every year. One of the biggest reasons for the slowdown in children's running ability is obesity. Kids are overweight because they are eating too much and not exercising enough.
The rese ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )archers say their report is worrying. If children are becoming fatter and less fit, they will be unhealthier in the future. The researcher Dr Grant Tomkinson said: “If a young person is unfit now, then they are more likely to get illness, like heart disease later in life.” Dr Tomkinson said: “We need to help to make children and young people to develop fitness habits that will keep them healthy now and into the future. They need to choose a few physical activities they like or think they might like to try, and they need to get moving.” He added: “Young people can be fit in different ways. They can be strong like a weightlifter (举重的人), or flexible (灵活) like a gymnast (体操运动员), or skillful like a tennis player.”
( ) 1. A doctor said ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) kids who are unfit now could get _________ in the future.

Passage 12
A new report ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )says less than ten per cent of Britain's engineers are women. This shows that Britain has the fewest women engineers of all European countries. Vince Cable, the UK Business Secretary (秘书), told reporters that this would be a “very big problem for years to come”. He said one of the biggest areas work that needed more women was in computer science. Many women graduate from university with degrees in computer science, so Mr Cable did not understand why there were so few women computer engineers. He said that many companies had a “psychological barrier (心理障碍)” against women becoming engineers. He said: “Half of all state schools don’t have a single girl doing physics. That’s the problem.”
The British gov ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ernment has started a new activity to get more women into engineering. It is called “Tomorrow’s Engineers Week” and started on November the 4th. Mr Cable said at the meeting: “Engineering will play a very important role in the future of UK industry (工业). It is important that we act now to make sure that the students are learning good skills, so that our businesses will grow with them.” A spokesman for Siemens (西门子) UK said Britain needed to “help young people understand how an engineering (training programme) can be a rewarding (报酬丰厚的) career”. The website of the activity said it would “show all the exciting businesses and industries…that rely on (依赖于……) the work of creative engineers.”
( ) 1. __________ of UK engineers are women.
A. 10% B. 10.01% C. less than 10% D. just over 10%

Passage 13
Fast-food workers ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )in 58 cities in the USA did not go to work on Thursday. They went on strike because they want more money. The workers these years get paid the lowest wage (工资). This was set at $7.25 in 2009 and has not changed since then. Many workers say they cannot afford to live on that. The price of everything has gone up but their wages have stayed the same for five years. The workers want $15 an hour, which is double their wage. Julio Wilson, a cashier at a pizza restaurant, told the BBC he earns $9 an hour. He said that wasn’t enough to support himself and his five-year-old daughter. He said: “I know I may lose my job by doing so, but it’s my right to fight for what I deserve (应得的).”
McDonald's and ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) Burger King both spoke about the strike. They said they did not make decisions about how much to pay workers in most of their restaurants. They said each restaurant is independent and the manager decides how much to pay the workers. McDonald’s profits were over $5.5 billion in 2011. The burger giants (巨人) did say that an increase in wages would mean more expensive hamburgers. America’s National Restaurant Association (协会) said the wages were low because the staff are young and have little work experience. It said: “Only five per cent of restaurant employees earn the lowest wage and they are mainly working part-time and half are teenagers.”

Passage 14
A new repor ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )t says Christmas in the USA is becoming less religious. Nine out of ten Americans celebrate Christmas, but only about half think it is a religious holiday. The report is from the Pew Research Center. It asked 2,001 adults about their opinions on Christmas. Just over half of those questioned people thought Christmas was a religious celebration, while 32 per cent said it was, “more of a cultural holiday”. Greg Smith from Pew Research said: “Younger adults are less likely than older adults to see Christmas as a religious rather than cultural holiday. They’re less likely to say they will attend church at Christmas…and they are less likely to believe in the virgin birth .”
People ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) are also changing what they say to each other at Christmas and what they write in cards. More and more people are choosing to say “Happy Holidays” instead of “Merry Christmas”. This is because there are also non-Christian holidays happening around the same time as Christmas. Many people want to include all holidays in their holiday wishes. The research also found that 79 per cent of Americans will watch a Christmas movie, but only 59 per cent will go to church. Just 36 per cent will read the Christmas story in the Bible. The average amount (平均数量) of money people spend on Christmas is $914. Ten percent of Americans spend over $2,000. People most look forward to spending time with their family.

Passage 15
A new report ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) from the United Nations says more than 250 million children of primary school age cannot read or write. It said they could also not do basic mathematics. The report said that 120 million children have spent little or no time in school. The report also said children not going to school means countries lose money. Each year, governments lose up to $130 billion. Vibeke Jensen, a U.N. spokeswoman (发言人), said there was a global “learning crisis (危机)”. She said this was because there were not enough well-trained teachers in poor areas. She said that in one third of countries, 75 per cent of primary school teachers do not have enough training. She added: “The important thing now is to pay more attention to quality (质量).”
The re ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )port said that most of those not going to school were girls. It said it was important that developing countries educate girls. Sending girls to school can increase a country's wealth (财富) by 25 per cent over 40 years. The report said that almost two-thirds (66%) of girls in Arab countries and sub-Saharan Africa would never go to school. In Yemen (也门), just 36 per cent of young women are literate. The Reuters news agency said: “If things go on like this, the poorest part of the girls and young ladies in developing countries won’t get education until the year 2072” There was some good news. In Laos, Rwanda and Vietnam, the number of children not going to school fell by 85 per cent in the last five years.

A publishing c ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ompany plans to print (印刷) all of the articles (文章) from the Wikipedia website （维基百科全书网站）. Pedia Press （维基出版社）hopes to print all the information of Wikipedia in 1,000 books, each including 1,200 pages. Wikipedia has over 4.3 million articles and 2.6 billion words.

It wants people to donate money so it can go ahead with the first copy. The company has already printed number one of the thousand books. It includes the articles from "A" to "A76 motorway".
Many people are ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )questioning why Pedia Press wants to print out such a huge website. They say it will be out of date (过时的) as soon as it starts printing. A spokesperson (发言人) from Pedia Press said the company wants to show the world just how big Wikipedia really is. He said: “We think that the best way to know the size of Wikipedia is by transforming it into the physical medium (物质媒介) of books.” He added: “Including the most books and written by the largest number of volunteers, the printed books will be a work of record-breaking.” The company may take the books on a world tour.

She became very popular as a woman soprano ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com" \o "欢迎登陆21世纪教育网 ) singer, because she appeared on the CCTV New Year’s Gala ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com" \o "欢迎登陆21世纪教育网 ) （央视春晚）almost every year.

Passage 19
Walking through the ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) winter park, the trees stand cold and bare(光秃秃的). The winter has shaken their yellow leaves to the ground. As I keep walking, a noise in the background is becoming louder and clearer. Now, 100 meters ahead, is a group of women gathered at the sides of a path. In the cold breeze of winter, they’re moving their arms and legs to a rhythm(节奏).They are, of course, the dancing aunties.
It seems that if ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) you go to any public space around China, you’re likely to see these dancing aunties. When I first came to China, it was one of the first things that stuck me. That’s because in Britain dancing in public is not a cultural habit. You won’t see any age group swinging their arms and tapping their feet in a park. Usually, they just take a walk for exercise.
Now and again ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) the dancing aunties have hit the headlines. Some people find them annoying. But others respect their right to dance in public. With most of them middle-aged, they finally have some free time to do whatever they like. There is no more work, and their kids have left.
Personally, I lik ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )e seeing these women enjoying themselves. They remind us of the importance of exercise as we get older.
Besides, most ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )of them have raised the whole families. Now is their time to have fun and enjoy some peace.
（ ）1. Just women dance at the sides of a path.
（ ）2. The British ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )people usually like running in the winter for exercise.
（ ）3. Most of middle ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )-aged women dance because they have no more work and their kids have left.
（ ）4. The author is critical for dancing aunties.
（ ）5. Accor ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ding to the passage that Chinese women like dancing in public.
【主旨大意】本文是一篇说明文。介绍了中国当下 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )非常流行的广场舞，中国的这种文化与英国是不同的。跳广场舞的大多是中年妇女，她们在为整个家庭做出巨大贡献的同时，也要学会享受生活，作者十分支持这一娱乐方式。

Passage 20
For Chinese soc ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )cer fans, the new 2015 year is already an unusual year. After years of frustration, disappointment and disbelief with the national team, the 2015 Asian Cup is becoming successful, with China winning all three games and finishing first in Group B.
First-round eliminat ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ions（淘汰赛） in the 2007 and 2011 Asian Cups have made the national team’s fans deeply disappointed. But China has created a wonder after victories over Saudi Arabia, Uzbekistan and North Korea.
Perrin, a 58-yea ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )r-old Frenchman who has coached two of his country’s biggest clubs——Lyon and Marseille, said，“After three difficult matches, we have a new record for Chinese football. We have nine points after the group stage. We have to keep working hard. That is what we are doing. We have a good team spirit. We believe in each other, work hard for each other and we want to do as well as we can.”
“You can see ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )that the fans are happy and enjoying this,”said Xu Haijing, a reporter.“It is the same back in China, with people starting to get behind the players and the coach. People are enjoying watching the team for the first time in years.”Although it was beaten by Australia at last, our team is already successful. Also Sun Ke has scored three goals in the match.
It will take us a ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )long time to fill the differences between China and the world’s soccer powers. To achieve this, our players must build a strong wish to win and confidence in victory, trying to catch up when failing behind and never giving up when running against all the chances.
（ ）1.Chinese soccer team won 4 games in Group B.
（ ）2. People ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) didn’t enjoy watching Chinese football team in the last years.
（ ）3. Lyon and Marseille are two of the biggest clubs in China.
（ ）4. China had three games in the 2015 Asian Cup in all.
（ ）5. According to ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )the passage, the writer mainly tells us that China’s soccer team
has created a success.
【主旨大意】本文是一篇说明文 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )。介绍了中国男足闯入2015亚洲杯八强，这对于关心中国足球的痴心球迷来说，可算是久旱逢甘霖的一场瓢泼大雨。大家不仅关注世界级教练佩兰，同时也称赞像孙可那样的顶级球员。这场胜利虽然并不具备太多的突破性意义，但我们要满怀希望地大吼一声：中国男足加油！
