J. K. Rowling frequently shows there is magic every day. Her Harry Potter series has helped people through times of stress and depression and she is always there to deliver wise words of encouragement.
She is one celebrity who is very active on Twitter. So when a single dad named Matt Burke sent her a message thanking her for the series, she noticed. Her series had helped strengthen his relationship with his 9 year old daughter Bailey.
He included a link to his article titled Being a Broke Parent. He explained how he hadn’t found a level of financial stability that allowed him to pay bills on time and take his daughter on more activities and events. The family also doesn’t have the Internet or TV, which means there’s no “digital babysitter” and he has to rely on his own creative ways to bond with his daughter. Since he received the series, the main thing that has occupied them these days is reading books together.
Burke admits that he thought he was “too cool” for the books when they first came out and he was in his twenties, but he’s loving reading them now. “We switch off chapter by chapter reading them out loud,“Burke explains.” This not only allows her to get more used to reading aloud in front of someone, but it gets me directly involved in something she loves, and it gives me the chance to be very dramatic when I read my chapters and bring myself into the characters in the book, which has proven to be a ton of fun.”
After hearing Burke’s story, Rowling said how honored she was when Harry Potter was a part of his family’s life and offered Burke more books. Besides, people are also offering to send Burke more books as gifts. For Burke, this experience, far more than gifts, will be what he treasures.
24.What is implied in Burke’s words in paragraph 4
A.He has found it interesting to read the series.
B.He was too old to understand the series better.
C.He has chosen a better way of reading the series.
D.He hopes to play a role in the drama in the future.
25.Which word can best describe Burke’s experience according to the text
A.Useless. B.Normal. C.Valuable. D.Boring.
26.What is the main idea of this text
A.J. K. Rowling chooses to help improve kids’ health.
B.J. K. Rowling gives a magical gift to a single father.
C.J. K. Rowling has a deep influence on others’ growth.
D.Burke comes to know J. K. Rowling through her series.
27.Why did Burke thank J. K. Rowling according to the text
A.She guided him how to write a good story.
B.She encouraged him when he was in trouble.
C.Her books helped him through times of confusion.
D.Her books helped him improve his bond with his daughter.

To improve road safety and raise awareness among Russia’s notoriously (臭名昭著地) careless drivers, Russian police have tried to get drivers to slow down at zebra (斑马) crossings by having painted horses as zebras walk across on the busiest streets in some of the big cities.
The light grey horses, painted with black stripes (条纹), carried signs on their backs reading: “Careful, children are on their way to school.” The police sent the “zebras” to several different locations in the Russian capital, where officials in orange vests walked them over zebra crossings and handed out leaflets (传单) to passing drivers.
Some held up rainbow-coloured umbrellas over the painted animals to protect them from the rain. Russian roads are notoriously dangerous and drivers still rarely take steps to avoid pedestrians (行人). Nearly half of all traffic accidents in the country’s big cities are caused by cars hitting pedestrians, and a third of those occur on crossings, according to traffic police figures published last month.
In the first six months of this year, 378 people were killed and more than 6, 600 injured on pedestrian crossings in Russia, according to police. In Moscow alone, 43 people were killed, including two children.
Though police officials said that only safe paint would be used on the animals, animal rights activists still disagreed with the idea, accusing the police of “treating animals like garbage”.
“Children understand that paints are bad for animals,” the Interfax news agency quoted (引用) president of Vita animal rights group Irina Novozhilova as saying.
Let’s hope this part of the campaign is over and animals are left out of future attempts to raise pedestrians’ awareness.
28.Why do Moscow police have “zebras” walk across on the busiest streets
A.To make a call on protecting animals.
B.To raise drivers’ awareness of road safety.
C.To tell people it is dangerous to cross streets.
D.To remind people zebras are in danger of extinction.
29.From the text we can learn that ______.
A.the driving skills of Russian drivers are bad.
B.Russian drivers often ignore traffic lights.
C.Russian drivers seldom give way to pedestrians
D.Most Russian drivers have realized the seriousness of the problem.
30.What do animal rights activists think of the new attempt
A.Drivers must slow down at pedestrian crossings.
B.Road safety should be improved.
C.The paints used on the horses are safe.
D.These animals are ill-treated by the police.
31.Which word can best describe the author’s attitude towards the campaign
A.Critical. B.Confident. C.Doubtful. D.Positive.
D
The specific cultural values of a country may determine whether concern about environmental issues actually leads individuals to engage in environmentally friendly behaviors, according to research published in Psychological Science.
Kimin Eom, a psychological scientist of the University of California, Santa Barbara, was inspired to investigate the links between culture, environmental concern, and environmental action after noticing that both public discussion and academic research on environmental behavior typically focus on people from Western countries. It is worth noticing because Western countries tend to have cultural values that prioritize individuals’ own attitudes and beliefs and encourage expression of them.
“The theory seemed to be that once individuals are led to believe in the urgency of environmental issues and have stronger concerns about sustainability (持续性), they will change and act to address the issues,” explains Eom. But this relationship might not hold for individuals living in more collectivistic (集体主义的) societies, which place more emphasis on social harmony and uniformity than on self-expression, Eom and his team assumed.
To examine what drives environmental action in individualistic and collectivistic cultures, the researchers conducted a study with participants from the United States (an individualistic culture) and Japan (a collectivistic culture). They found environmental concern was closely connected with environmental behavior — in this case, choosing environmentally friendly products — but only among American participants. On the other hand, believing that a large percentage of people engage in environmentally friendly behaviors was associated with making eco-friendly choices among Japanese participants, but not American participants.
The findings suggest that personal concerns are more likely to motivate people to take environmental action if they live in individualistic countries, while social norms (准则) are more likely to drive people to engage in environmentally friendly behavior if they live in collectivistic countries.
“Getting citizens actively engaged is critical to addressing urgent social challenges, such as climate change,” says Eom. “Our research suggests that scientists, policymakers, and activists need to understand how culture shapes the psychological factors of action to develop policies, campaigns, and interventions (干预) that address important social issues.”
32.What does Eom find about previous research on environmental behavior
A.Its study participants are too limited.
B.Its results need a while to be achieved.
C.It prioritizes individuals’ attitudes and beliefs.
D.It draws much evidence from public discussion.
33.Under which condition will a Japanese man most likely take environmental action
A.If he sees many others do so.
B.If he is affected by collectivistic values.
C.If he moves to an individualistic country.
D.If he worries about the environment personally.
34.What does Eom say about their research in the last paragraph
A.It fails to take participants’ psychological factors into account.
B.It encourages scientists and policymakers to make joint efforts.
C.It has a further study direction towards urgent social challenges.
D.It provides insights into promoting public engagement in social issues.
35.What is the best title for the text
A.Social Norms Play a Part in Addressing Pollution
B.Environmental Issues Originate from National Cultures
C.Motivating Eco-Friendly Behaviors Depends on Cultural Values
D.More Environmental Concerns Usually Mean More Green Action

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。
When people first come across the Law of Attraction (吸引力法则), their hearts and minds often immediately think of one specific thing that they’d love to achieve in their lives. However, the next thought is often “But I can’t do that”. You may come up with all kinds of excuses. 36 Here are the reasons why you should believe you can use the Law of Attraction to obtain whatever you want.
Small steps create big changes. One of the most common reasons for abandoning dreams is that they simply seem too huge to realize. Usually it’s manageable to think of following your dream as taking a series of significant but small steps. 37 Then look at each of them. Not so unrealistic now, is it
38 When people are interviewed on their deathbeds or write about their lives in autobiographies (自传), it is often observed that major regrets tend to relate to things that were not done. In older age, it’s likely that you will be uncomfortable with the idea that you didn’t even try to do the thing that you loved or attempt to obtain what you truly wanted. 39 But you don’t ever need to feel this way! Make today the first day of your new journey towards avoiding regret.
Steps towards your dream are never backwards steps. Another common worry is that if you follow your dreams, you’ll be “taking steps back”. 40 However, what looks like backward steps in your old life can more productively and accurately be seen as forwarding steps in the brand new life you’re creating.
A.You can avoid regret.
B.It makes sense to move forward confidently.
C.Luckily, the truth is that it’s never too late to follow your dream.
D.It often comes up when people are at the top of careers they hate.
E.It is painful to feel like you haven’t ever found your true purpose.
F.For example, challenge yourself to write down the path to success in ten stages.
G.You have enough life experience and knowledge to make changes to pursue your dream.

After I stepped into the school library, I went straight to the shelves filled with books at once. It was break time and I had dropped by the library to borrow a book. Just as I was looking through some books, a girl in my class, Alice, came up to me. Alice was a pain in the neck as she would often make fun of others. That day, Alice laughed at me about my deepest secret -that I had come last in class in the mid-year examinations.
I blushed(脸红)hotly in shame. At the same time, I became extremely angry. My best friend, Lynn, was the only one who knew my secret. How could she betray(背叛)me
My anger grew as thoughts about my friendship with Lynn flashed through my mind. We had been good friends since Primary 1. We hung out together, studied together and stayed up till the early hours of the morning to exchange our dreams. We were closer than sisters. When she needed a shoulder to cry on, I would be there. How could she do this to me I was so mad that I could not control myself.
Brushing aside Alice’s taunts(嘲弄), I stormed to the place where Lynn usually went - the school field. Lynn looked at me with a welcoming smile on her face. The sight of her treacherous(背信弃义的)face made me mad and crazy.
“How could you do this to me I thought we were friends!” I shouted at Lynn. “I hate you!”
A look of bewilderment(迷茫)crossed her face as she said,
“Wha ... What’s wrong What did I do ”
Lynn cried out but I was cold and I didn’t show any kindness to her at all. I told her, “You are no longer my friend!”
And then I stormed away and returned to the library to calm myself down.
注意:1. 续写词数应为150左右;

【原文】W: I’m very lucky — there’s a spare room up in the roof of our house away from my parents, that I’m allowed to hang out in. It isn’t very big. I’ve painted the walls purple. My mother doesn’t like the color, but I’m not changing it now. It has huge windows, so I sit by them to do my schoolwork. I cover the windows if I sleep there — otherwise they let in too much sunshine, like all our rooms. Not everyone would like the room. There are too many things in it so it looks kind of untidy. They’re all my favorite things. I keep arranging the furniture to make more space. And I put my precious magazines away to save space. But it doesn’t work. As for the walls, I’m always adding or removing pictures I’ve taken; some are of school events. There are also posters of pop stars I’ve been crazy about since I was twelve. The room isn’t just for me — my elder sister shares it when she’s at home, and that’s fine. I love the place because at school I work on things I’m not always interested in, but here I’m surrounded by things I really care about.

(这不仅让她更习惯于在别人面前大声朗读,而且让我直接参与到她喜欢的事情中,让我有机会在阅读我的章节并融入书中的角色时表现得非常戏剧化,这已经被证明是一件非常有趣的事。)”可知,他现在很喜欢读这些书,这不仅可以让他参与到女儿喜欢的事情中,也让他能够融入书中的角色,他认为这很有趣。由此可推测出,他现在觉得读这些书很有趣。故选A。

Her Harry Potter series has helped people through times of stress and depression and she is always there to deliver wise words of encouragement. (J.K. Rowling经常表现出每天都有魔法。她的《哈利·波特》系列帮助人们度过了压力和抑郁的时期,她总是在那里发表明智的鼓励话语。)”和第二段中的“So when a single dad named Matt Burke sent her a message thanking her for the series, she noticed. Her series had helped strengthen his relationship with his 9-year-old daughter Bailey. (因此,当一位名叫Matt Burke的单身父亲给她发信息感谢她的这个系列时,她注意到了这一点。她的系列帮助他加强了与9岁女儿Bailey的关系。)”结合本文主要讲述了J.K. Rowling的书帮助一个单身父亲改善他和女儿的关系,是很有魔力的一份礼物。故B项“J. K. Rowling给了一名单身父亲一份神奇的礼物”符合题意。故选B。

【导语】这是一篇新闻报道。俄罗斯警方开展了一项新的尝试,他们在马身上画上条纹,让马在商业街上走来走去,希望以此提高司机们的安全意识,提高道路安全。文章分析了这项运动背后的原因以及动物保护组织对这种做法的态度。
28.细节理解题。根据第一段“To improve road safety and raise awareness among Russia’s notoriously (臭名昭著地) careless drivers, Russian police have tried to get drivers to slow down at zebra (斑马) crossings by having painted horses as zebras walk across on the busiest streets in some of the big cities. (为了改善道路安全,提高以粗心著称的俄罗斯司机的意识,通过在一些大城市最繁忙的街道上让涂成斑马颜色的马过马路,俄罗斯警方试图让司机在斑马线减速)”可知,俄罗斯警让“斑马”在最繁忙街道上走的目的是,提高司机的安全意识。故选B。
29.细节理解题。根据第三段中的“Russian roads are notoriously dangerous and drivers still rarely take steps to avoid pedestrians (行人). (俄罗斯的道路很危险,司机们仍然很少主动避让行人)”可知,司机们很少给行人让路。故选C。

(尽管警方官员表示,只会在动物身上使用安全涂料,但动物权利活动家仍然不同意这一想法,指责警方“像对待垃圾一样对待动物”。)”可知,动物权利保护主义者认为动物们受到了警察的虐待。故选D。

33.推理判断题。根据第四段中的“On the other hand, believing that a large percentage of people engage in environmentally friendly behaviors was associated with making eco-friendly choices among Japanese participants, but not American participants.(另一方面,在日本参与者中,相信很大一部分人进行环保行为与做出环保选择有关,但在美国参与者中则不然。)”可知,在日本参与者当中,当他们相信有很大一部分人做出了环保行为,他们也会做出环保选择。由此可推测出,当一个日本人看到许多其他人采取环保行动,那么他也会这么做。故选A。
34.推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“Our research suggests that scientists, policymakers, and activists need to understand how culture shapes the psychological factors of action to develop policies, campaigns, and interventions(干预) that address important social issues.(我们的研究表明,科学家、政策制定者和活动家需要了解文化如何塑造行动的心理因素,以制定解决重要社会问题的政策、运动和干预措施。)”可推测出,该研究为促进公众参与解决社会问题提供了见解。故选D。
35.标题归纳题。通读全文可知,第一段“The specific cultural values of a country may determine whether concern about environmental issues actually leads individuals to engage in environmentally friendly behaviors, according to research published in Psychological Science.(根据发表在《心理科学》上的研究,一个国家的特定文化价值观可能决定对环境问题的关注是否真的会导致个人进行环保行为。)”引出主题,即一个国家的特定文化价值观可能决定人们对环境问题的关注是否真的会促使个人做出环保行动,所以C项“激励生态友好行为取决于文化价值观”最适合作本文标题。故选C。

【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了被联合国教科文组织评为“美食之都”的亚洲城市——成都。
56.考查动词的时态。句意:2010年,它成为第一个被联合国教科文组织评为“美食之都”的亚洲城市。根据下文的in 2010可知,本句的时态应该是一般过去时,所以空格处应该用提示词的过去式形式。故填became。

67. About 5 minutes later, one of my classmates came up to me and handed me my diary. She explained that I had left it under my table in class and Alice uncovered my secret by accident. I felt so guilty in my heart when I thanked the classmate. I realised my misunderstanding. A sense of deep and bitter regret crashed over me as I thought about Lynn’s sad face. I should not shout wildly at her just now. Guilt was hurting my insides and then I hurried back to the field in search of Lynn.
Luckily, Lynn was still in the field. She looked very sad. “Lynn ” I said softly as I got close to her. “I’m so sorry! Please stop being angry with me!” I went on to explain to her and thankfully, Lynn smiled. She said, “It’s okay. I won’t be mad at you.” As Lynn and I hugged each other warmly, I realised that friendship shouldn't easily be broken and I promised to love and trust Lynn forever.
