Dear Peter，
Having known you are interested in our school music band，I'm glad to tell you something about it．
Our band，formed at the beginning of last semester，consists of eight members． All of us can play musical instruments，three of whom are better singers，me included． After practicing for more than a year，we are now widely accepted by our teachers and schoolmates． We usually perform during major events at school． We also go to nursing homes to perform for the elderly．
I've benefited a lot by joining the band． Not only have I brought joy to others，but also I have relieved my pressure in study．
Yours，
Li Hua
[片段1]
The door opened and in came a young man． Shocked to see us packing things into our suitcase，the young man let out a yell of anger，with his eyes shining with annoyance． He was in a furious passion，and went stamping about． He accused us of illegally entering his room and threatened to call the police，which scared my children to death．
门开了，走进来一个年轻人。看到我们把东西塞进行李箱，年轻人吓了一跳，他发出一声愤怒的喊叫，眼睛里闪烁着恼怒的光芒。他勃然大怒，跺着脚走来走去。他指责我们非法进入他的房间，并威胁要叫警察，把我的孩子们吓死了。
[片段2]
Just at that moment，my husband returned after his grocery shopping． Hearing the man's rude words，a fire of rage burning in his heart． It seemed that no settlement would be possible，and the situation reached a boiling point． Quarrels fueled his anger and he erupted like a volcano． Eventually，unable to contain his anger，my husband stormed out of the room，slamming the door furiously behind him．
就在这时，我丈夫买完东西回来了。听到那人粗鲁的话语，怒火在他心中燃烧。看来没有解决办法了，局势达到了沸点。争吵加剧了他的怒气，他像火山一样爆发了。最后，我丈夫无法控制自己的愤怒，冲出房间，愤怒地摔门离去。

See
There is plenty to see in Sri Lanka． The ancient capital cities of Polonnaruwa and Anuradhapura are worth seeing，and so are many outstanding ruins． Other must- sees are the rock fortress (要塞) of Sigiriya，towering over the jungle as far as the eye can see，and Dambulla Cave Temple，the country's largest and best preserved． Both are UNESCO World Heritage (遗产)Sites． Kandy is a picture- like town，which was the last stronghold of the Kandyan Kings． Today it is a cultural relic centre where age- old customs，arts，and crafts remain．
Do
Sri Lanka owns about 1，600km of beautiful palm- shaded beaches as well as warm，pure seas and colorful coral reefs(珊瑚礁)． You can explore the underwater world，and surfing and diving are available too． Away from the shore，wildlife is a big draw for Sri Lanka，and Yala National Park is one of the best places in the world to see wild animals including leopards(豹)and elephants．
Taste
Sri Lanka is celebrated for its excellent food，with a particular emphasis on fresh fruit and vegetables on menus everywhere． Fish and seafood are a big part of the local diet．

“Their cheery song brightens many a winter's day． But robins are in danger of wearing themselves out by singing too much． Robins are singing all night—as well as during the day，” British- based researchers say．
David Dominoni，of Glasgow University，said that light from street lamps，takeaway signs and homes is affecting the birds' biological clocks，leading to them being wide awake when they should be asleep．
Dr．Dominoni，who is putting cameras inside nesting boxes to track sleeping patterns，said lack of sleep could put the birds' health at risk． His study shows that when robins are exposed to light at night in the lab，it leads to some genes being active at the wrong time of day． And the more birds are exposed to light，the more active they are at night．
He told people at a conference，“There have been a couple of studies suggesting they are increasing their song output at night and during the day they are still singing． Singing is a costly behaviour and it takes energy． So by increasing their song output，there might be some costs of energy．”
And it is not just robins that are being kept awake by artificial light． Blackbirds and seagulls are also being more nocturnal．
Dr．Dominoni said，“In Glasgow where I live，gulls are a serious problem． I have people coming to me saying ‘You are the bird expert． Can you help us kill these gulls？’ During the breeding(繁殖) season，between April and June，they are very active at night and very noisy and people can't sleep．”
Although Dr．Dominoni has only studied light pollution，other research concludes that robins living in noisy cities have started to sing at night to make themselves heard over loud noise．
However，some birds thrive(兴旺) in noisy environments． A study from California Polytechnic State University found more hummingbirds in areas with heavy industrial machinery． It is thought that they are capitalising on their predators(天敌) fleeing to quieter areas．
【语篇解读】　本文是一篇说明文。一项研究调查表明：由于人为的光污染，越来越多的鸟类如知更鸟在晚上也会唱歌，这会消耗它们很多能量，极大地影响了鸟的健康。
4．According to Dr．Dominoni's study，what causes robins to sing so much

B．The light in modern life．
C．The dangerous environment．
D．The noise from heavy machinery．

√
5．What is the researchers' concern over the increase of birds' song output
A．The environment might be polluted．
B．The birds' health might be damaged．

7．Why do some birds thrive in noisy environments
A．Because there are fewer dangers．
B．Because there is more food to eat．
C．Because there is less light pollution．

Watching the behaviour and body language of zoo animals could be the key to understanding and improving their welfare，new research suggests．Traditionally，zoos have focused on more straightforward measures such as whether animals are eating and sleeping．
The new review，by the University of Exeter and the University of Winchester，says zoos have made great improvements in recent years，but closer observation of animal behaviour—a method called Qualitative Behavioural Assessment，developed in farming—could show even more about their state of mind．
An animal's positioning of its body，facial movements and activity levels are among the things that might tell whether it is excited，calm，interested，nervous，relaxed，etc．
“Zookeepers are knowledgeable about their animals，and they will often recognise an animal's state of mind by its behaviour and body language，” said Dr．Paul Rose，of the University of Exeter．
“What we are suggesting is a more scientific method of this，carried out over time．”
“Certain behaviours will show certain moods in an animal，and we should build our knowledge of this for different animals that live in zoos．For example，lions have a lot of facial expressions，and research on these expressions could help zoos understand the animals' state of mind．This information could then be used to improve welfare by changing diets，feeding times or any number of other aspects of the way animals are kept．”
Dr．Rose carries out much of his research at WWT Slimbridge Wetland Centre，and is now examining how the swans (天鹅) there might show their state of mind through their behavioural expression．
“We're looking at how much time they spend exploring their habitat，which could show what they're feeling，” he said．“When they're unsure，they appear to move less and be more careful，and draw their feathers (羽毛) close to their bodies．”
The study provides research opportunities for Qualitative Behavioural Assessment and practices that could be used by zoos．“Animal welfare in zoos has improved greatly in the last 10 or 20 years，and this method gives zoos another way to recognise and improve the welfare of animals，” Dr．Rose said．
【语篇解读】　本文是一篇新闻报道。文章主要报道了新的研究表明，观察动物园动物的行为和肢体语言可能是了解和改善它们福利的关键。
8．How to improve zoo animals' welfare
A．More focus on animals' eating and sleeping．
B．Closer observation of zoo animals' behaviour．
C．More attention to zoo animals' state of mind．
D．Adoption of more straightforward measures．

9．Why does the author mention lions
A．To show body language differs in different animals．
B．To show the uncertainty of animal body language．
C．To show lions change their expressions easily．
D．To show lions are treated badly in zoos．
√
A　[推理判断题。根据第六段第一、二句可知，作者提到狮子是为了表明生活在动物园里的不同动物表现情绪的肢体语言不同。故选A。]
10．What has Dr．Rose found about the swans
A．They have more facial expressions than lions．
B．They appear confident most of the time．
C．They move little in fearful situations．
D．They spend little time in their habitat．
√
C　[细节理解题。根据倒数第二段最后一句“当它们不确定时，它们似乎活动更少、更小心，把羽毛靠近身体。”可知，天鹅在害怕的情况下会很少活动。故选C。]
11．What can we know from the last paragraph
A．Animal welfare in zoos is decreasing．
B．Qualitative Behavioural Assessment is meaningful．
C．Farm animals enjoy greater welfare than zoo animals．
D．Zoos do a good job in recognising animal body language．
√
B　[推理判断题。根据最后一段“这项研究为定性行为评估和动物园可以使用的方法提供了研究机会。罗斯博士说：‘在过去的10年或20年里，动物园的动物福利得到了极大的改善，这种方法为动物园提供了另一种认识和改善动物福利的方法。’”可知，定性行为评估有助于改善动物园动物福利，为动物园提供了另一种认识和改善动物福利的方法，即定性行为评估是有意义的。故选B。]

Why Does Walking Through Doorways Make Us Forget
We've all done it． Run upstairs to get your keys，but forget that it is them you're looking for once you get to the bedroom． Open the fridge door and reach for the middle shelf only to realize that we can't remember why we opened the fridge in the first place．
We can understand those temporary moments of forgetfulness may be more than just an annoyance． Although these errors can be embarrassing，they are also common． It's known as the“Doorway Effect”，and it shows some important features of how our minds are organized． Understanding this might help us accept those temporary moments of forgetfulness as more than just an annoyance．
The Doorway Effect occurs when our attention moves between levels，and it reflects the trust in our memories—even memories for what we were about to do—on the environment we're in．
Imagine that we're going upstairs to get our keys and forget that it is the keys we came for as soon as we enter the bedroom． Psychologically，what has happened is that the plan (“Keys！”) has been forgotten even in the middle of carrying out a necessary part of the strategy (“Go to bedroom！”)． Probably the plan itself is part of a larger plan (“Get ready to leave the house！”)，which is part of plans on a wider and wider
field (“Go to work！”“Keep my job！”“Be a productive and responsible citizen”，or whatever)． Each field requires attention at some point． Somewhere in controlling the complex levels，the need for keys suddenly comes into mind．
Our memories，even for our goals，are planted in webs of connections． That can be the physical environment in which we form them，which is why revisiting our childhood home can bring back a flood of previously forgotten memories，or it can be the mental environment—the set of things we were just thinking about when that thing suddenly comes into mind．
The Doorway Effect occurs because we change both the physical and mental environments，moving to a different room and thinking about different things． That hurriedly thought- up goal，which was probably only one plate among the many we're trying to spin(旋转)，gets forgotten when the context changes．

【语篇解读】　本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。文章通过思考一次辩论的失利，回顾了参加辩论赛的历程，领悟到辩友给自己带来的帮助。
36．failure　[考查词性转换。my修饰名词。故填failure。]
37．if　[考查连词。根据句意，此处连接条件状语从句。故填if。]
38．discussing　[考查非谓语动词。分析整个句子可知，该句不缺谓语，discuss的逻辑主语为“我们”，故用动词- ing形式，表主动。故填discussing。]
39．fiercely　[考查词性转换。修饰动词arguing。故填fiercely。]
40．mine　[考查代词。此处是介词to的宾语，在意义上表示“my passions and interest”。 故填mine。]
41．to　[考查固定搭配。空处和前面的from构成固定搭配“从……到……”。故填to。]
42．to practice　[考查非谓语动词。不定式作后置定语修饰a way，表示“做某事的方式”。故填to practice。]
43．but　[考查固定搭配。空处和前面的not only构成not only... but also... 搭配，此处省略了also。故填but。]
44．incomplete　[考查形容词。根据“without them”，此处应表示“没有他们，我的高中生活可能是不完整的”。故填incomplete。]
45．was defeated　[考查动词时态和语态。此处是谓语动词，表示被动；再根据“in my last debate”可知使用过去时。故填was defeated。]

My Favorite Singer
I know many singers，such as Li Guyi and Michael Jackson． But I like Michael Jackson best．
I recognized Michael Jackson on occasion． There was a poem recitation competition in my class． I had to look for a song about peace． Finally I found Heal the World，which was Michael Jackson's famous work． I liked it at once at the first sound of it and I thought it was the best song that I had ever heard．
Since then I began to know more about Michael Jackson and began to love him． He was named“King of Pop”．I love him，because he was not only a singer but also a peace- loving person．
第二节(满分25分)
阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
After watering the trees and grass in our yard yesterday，I'm pleased to see that it is raining this morning． The trees and grass are dry and they are dying for the water． We really need some showers to give the yard a drink and bring freshness to the air and coolness，making the morning pleasant． There is nothing quite like a rainy day in spring and the simple joys it brings．
In fact，as a boy，I hated rainy days． They meant that I was stuck in the house and couldn't go out to play． It was only as the years passed that I realized there could be no water without rain and there could be no life without water． The truth is that rain is a gift from nature． Now I look at each gentle rainfall with a smile and know that nature is giving the world and us the water we need to live．
Of course，we all prefer the sunshine after the rain． The sun gives us light． It energizes us． The white clouds and blue skies just naturally make us feel good． When my thoughts are racing，my mum comes over．“Henry，your morning coffee．It's raining today． Why don't you sleep more？” I smile and say，“Mum，it is a nice day． After the rain，the plants in our yard will come alive again． But I have an important thing to do today．” She seems to understand and says，“Go ahead，baby． Have a good day！”
Maybe rainy days give us a chance to rest today，and even rest on the fields for the next day． I know there would be no morning coffee or afternoon tea without rain． I think when I go out to help others in the rain today，I will send thanks to nature． When the rain falls on my head，it brings me great fun，but it also causes trouble for some homeless people on the streets． On the other hand，the rain seems to make me a little sad． I decide to walk out and see if there is anyone in need．
注意：1．续写词数应为150左右；
2．请按如下格式作答。
I am walking along the streets．____________________________

I decide to help the person in need．________________________

[参考范文]
I am walking along the streets． I find that there is only a“homeless” person today． The rainy day makes his situation more difficult． He just has a worn- out tent which is leaking everywhere． I decide to do something for him． So I buy a new tent，a raincoat，and an umbrella to keep out the rain． He is very grateful and says，“Thanks，sir． I just lose contact with my family at present． I don't have much cash on me and my cell phone has run out．”
I decide to help the person in need． So I ask him for his family's phone number and call them． I also give him some money and a portable charger． He thinks I am the kindest person in the world for him． The sun comes out after the rain as usual． Then I walk，chat，and share my feelings about rain and my experiences on rainy days with him． When he is on his way home，he says he will help people in need as I do． I hope the kindness will be passed on．
