Two years ago, my friend Terry and I were living in our dormitory at our university.With his birthday approaching, he came to me with an unusual request.Instead of receiving presents and getting drunk (like most every other 21－year－old would), he wanted to do some acts of kindness.I was struck with such an idea.He told me about a TED talk he had watched online, which had inspired him.
Our university is not located in the safest area in Los Angeles.In fact, its location is so unsafe that the school employs the second largest private legal militia (民兵队伍) in the United States to protect its students.They have to work around the clock, standing on street corners throughout the university keeping watch.It's a thankless job as most students grow used to seeing officers all around and finally hardly even notice their presence.
How could we show them our appreciation We rented a truck and asked its driver to drive us around the place where we knew the officers would be and we poured them each a cup of hot chocolate.The truck driver was a bit hesitant (犹豫的) about our plan at first but after a while he was helping us spot officers and our lively spirits had spread to him as well.Smiles and appreciative words from the officers impressed us a lot.Soon they were talking about us over their radio and we were the ones being spotted and called over.Finally, the hot chocolate seemed secondary (次要的) to their interest in meeting us, the two boys that went around with hot chocolate expecting to share some late－night laughter.It was amazing to see how a small simple act could lift everyone's spirits.
4．What inspired Terry to celebrate his birthday in a different way？( )
A.A radio speech.
B.An online video.
C.His concern for other people.
D.Every other 21－year－old's birthday celebrations.
5．What do most students think of the officers？( )
A.They don't think the officers perform their duty well.
B.They feel frightened to see the officers around.
C.They are not used to being watched by the officers.
D.They seldom appreciate the officers' hard work.
6．How did the truck driver respond to the idea at first？( )
A.He was unwilling to accept the idea.
B.He couldn't wait to join the two boys.
C.He was strongly against the idea.
D.He was struck with the idea.
7．What would be the best title for the text？( )
A.Lovely officers around the school
B.Importance of school safety
C.A unique birthday request
D.Late－night laughter

These small chips 2 (implant) just under the skin, usually on the back of the shoulder, through a procedure that is nearly painless and done by a doctor.
During a soccer game, sensors placed around the field track the location of every player’s chip. There’s also another chip inside the soccer ball. This setup allows a computer to analyze all this information in real-time. One major benefit of this technology is that it can instantly tell 3 a player is offside. In soccer, an offensive player isn’t allowed to position 4 behind all the other team’s defensive players and wait for a pass. This rule is called the offside rule, and it can be really hard for referees to judge accurately. But 5 these microchips, a computer can make the call with perfect precision every time.

【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了足球领域最新的一项技术，即在职业球员肩部下方植入微芯片，这项技术旨在帮助裁判更准确地判断球员是否越位，使足球比赛更加公平公正。
1．考查非谓语动词。句意：想象一下在你的皮肤下有一个微小的电子芯片，这正是世界各地的足球组织正在对职业球员进行的测试。imagine doing sth为固定短语，意为“想象做某事”，所以此处应用have的动名词形式作宾语。故填having。
2．考查时态、语态和主谓一致。句意：这些小芯片通过医生进行的几乎无痛的手术，被植入皮肤下，通常是在肩部后方。根据上下文语境可知，此处是对芯片植入这一客观事实的描述，应用一般现在时，主语These small chips和动词implant之间为被动关系，应用被动语态，且主语为复数，be动词应用are。故填are implanted。
3．考查宾语从句。句意：这项技术的一个主要好处是，它可以立即判断出球员何时越位。分析句子结构可知，此处引导tell的宾语从句，从句中缺少时间状语，表示“何时”，应用when引导。故填when。
4．考查反身代词。句意：在足球比赛中，进攻球员不允许将自己置于对方所有防守球员之后等待传球。根据句意可知，此处表示进攻球员将自己置于对方所有防守球员之后，应用反身代词themselves作position的宾语，指代主语player本身。故填themselves。
5．考查介词。句意：但是有了这些微芯片，计算机每次都能做出完全精确的判罚。根据句意可知，此处表示“拥有；借助”，应用介词with，with these microchips在句中作状语。故填with。
6．考查非谓语动词。句意：这些芯片设计为可在球员体内无害地留存数年。be designed to do sth为固定短语，意为“被设计用来做某事”，所以此处应用stay的不定式形式。故填to stay。
7．考查非谓语动词。句意：这意味着球员不必担心经常更换芯片。根据语意可知，此处意为“不必担心芯片被更换”，应用replace的过去分词形式作get宾语补足语，表示被动，构成get sth. done固定结构，意为“使某物被……”。故填replaced。
8．考查定语从句。句意：裁判在做出越位判罚时会更容易，犯的错误也会更少，而这些判罚往往会引起争议。此处引导非限制性定语从句，修饰先行词offside calls，指物，关系词在从句中作主语，应用关系代词which来引导。故填which。
9．考查连词。句意：虽然裁判肯定会感激这项新技术的帮助，但球员可能需要一些时间来适应皮肤下的芯片。根据句意可知，此处表示“虽然裁判肯定会感激这项新技术的帮助”，应用while引导让步状语从句，意为“虽然；尽管”，且位于句首，首字母需大写。故填While。
10．考查时态和主谓一致。句意：尽管如此，对于足球来说，更准确地判罚比赛的潜力是一大进步。根据上下文语境可知，此处是对客观事实的描述，应用一般现在时，主语potential为不可数名词，be动词应用is。故填is。

Two years ago, my friend Terry and I were living in our dormitory at our university.With his birthday approaching, he came to me with an unusual request.Instead of receiving presents and getting drunk (like most every other 21－year－old would), he wanted to do some acts of kindness.I was struck with such an idea.He told me about a TED talk he had watched online, which had inspired him.
Our university is not located in the safest area in Los Angeles.In fact, its location is so unsafe that the school employs the second largest private legal militia (民兵队伍) in the United States to protect its students.They have to work around the clock, standing on street corners throughout the university keeping watch.It's a thankless job as most students grow used to seeing officers all around and finally hardly even notice their presence.
How could we show them our appreciation We rented a truck and asked its driver to drive us around the place where we knew the officers would be and we poured them each a cup of hot chocolate.The truck driver was a bit hesitant (犹豫的) about our plan at first but after a while he was helping us spot officers and our lively spirits had spread to him as well.Smiles and appreciative words from the officers impressed us a lot.Soon they were talking about us over their radio and we were the ones being spotted and called over.Finally, the hot chocolate seemed secondary (次要的) to their interest in meeting us, the two boys that went around with hot chocolate expecting to share some late－night laughter.It was amazing to see how a small simple act could lift everyone's spirits.
4．What inspired Terry to celebrate his birthday in a different way？( )
A.A radio speech.
B.An online video.
C.His concern for other people.
D.Every other 21－year－old's birthday celebrations.

C.He was strongly against the idea.

Wang Yiru, another wedding planner in Lanzhou, Xinxin Wedding Service Company, said the preparation for a Chinese－style wedding is usually very time－consuming and costly.
“Wedding ceremonies reflect social and cultural changes.With people's living standards improved, they go for more individual choices，” said Wang Zongli, a professor at Northwest Normal University.

Two years ago, my friend Terry and I were living in our dormitory at our university.With his birthday approaching, he came to me with an unusual request.Instead of receiving presents and getting drunk (like most every other 21－year－old would), he wanted to do some acts of kindness.I was struck with such an idea.He told me about a TED talk he had watched online, which had inspired him.
Our university is not located in the safest area in Los Angeles.In fact, its location is so unsafe that the school employs the second largest private legal militia (民兵队伍) in the United States to protect its students.They have to work around the clock, standing on street corners throughout the university keeping watch.It's a thankless job as most students grow used to seeing officers all around and finally hardly even notice their presence.
How could we show them our appreciation We rented a truck and asked its driver to drive us around the place where we knew the officers would be and we poured them each a cup of hot chocolate.The truck driver was a bit hesitant (犹豫的) about our plan at first but after a while he was helping us spot officers and our lively spirits had spread to him as well.Smiles and appreciative words from the officers impressed us a lot.Soon they were talking about us over their radio and we were the ones being spotted and called over.Finally, the hot chocolate seemed secondary (次要的) to their interest in meeting us, the two boys that went around with hot chocolate expecting to share some late－night laughter.It was amazing to see how a small simple act could lift everyone's spirits.

Sun Yi finally received an email she had long been waiting for, which contained her final wedding plan.The plan, which had been revised nearly ten times, offered the 29－year－old girl a “new Chinese－style” wedding in March.She described it as “traditional but not old－fashioned” and “ritualistic (仪式的) but stylish.”
In recent years, traditional Chinese weddings have won popularity again among the country's newly－married.Many of them no longer consider Western－style dresses and words of “I do” as important parts of weddings.Instead, they now prefer wearing Tang Dynasty－style clothes and performing traditional rituals at weddings the same way their ancestors did hundreds, even thousands of years ago.
In traditional Chinese weddings, couples usually wear red.Red is always a symbol of fortune in Chinese culture, and the hall of the ceremony is also richly decorated in red.Couples will perform a three－step ritual, namely to heaven and earth, to their parents and to each other.
In Lanzhou, several wedding planning companies are sparing no effort to promote their “Chinese－style wedding packages”， which offer a wide range of choices for wedding plans.Chinese－style weddings make up nearly 40 percent of our orders.Customers often need to make reservations six months in advance, said Zhang, a wedding planner.
Wang Yiru, another wedding planner in Lanzhou, Xinxin Wedding Service Company, said the preparation for a Chinese－style wedding is usually very time－consuming and costly.
“Wedding ceremonies reflect social and cultural changes.With people's living standards improved, they go for more individual choices，” said Wang Zongli, a professor at Northwest Normal University.

【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了足球领域最新的一项技术，即在职业球员肩部下方植入微芯片，这项技术旨在帮助裁判更准确地判断球员是否越位，使足球比赛更加公平公正。
1．考查非谓语动词。句意：想象一下在你的皮肤下有一个微小的电子芯片，这正是世界各地的足球组织正在对职业球员进行的测试。imagine doing sth为固定短语，意为“想象做某事”，所以此处应用have的动名词形式作宾语。故填having。
2．考查时态、语态和主谓一致。句意：这些小芯片通过医生进行的几乎无痛的手术，被植入皮肤下，通常是在肩部后方。根据上下文语境可知，此处是对芯片植入这一客观事实的描述，应用一般现在时，主语These small chips和动词implant之间为被动关系，应用被动语态，且主语为复数，be动词应用are。故填are implanted。
3．考查宾语从句。句意：这项技术的一个主要好处是，它可以立即判断出球员何时越位。分析句子结构可知，此处引导tell的宾语从句，从句中缺少时间状语，表示“何时”，应用when引导。故填when。
4．考查反身代词。句意：在足球比赛中，进攻球员不允许将自己置于对方所有防守球员之后等待传球。根据句意可知，此处表示进攻球员将自己置于对方所有防守球员之后，应用反身代词themselves作position的宾语，指代主语player本身。故填themselves。
5．考查介词。句意：但是有了这些微芯片，计算机每次都能做出完全精确的判罚。根据句意可知，此处表示“拥有；借助”，应用介词with，with these microchips在句中作状语。故填with。
6．考查非谓语动词。句意：这些芯片设计为可在球员体内无害地留存数年。be designed to do sth为固定短语，意为“被设计用来做某事”，所以此处应用stay的不定式形式。故填to stay。
7．考查非谓语动词。句意：这意味着球员不必担心经常更换芯片。根据语意可知，此处意为“不必担心芯片被更换”，应用replace的过去分词形式作get宾语补足语，表示被动，构成get sth. done固定结构，意为“使某物被……”。故填replaced。
8．考查定语从句。句意：裁判在做出越位判罚时会更容易，犯的错误也会更少，而这些判罚往往会引起争议。此处引导非限制性定语从句，修饰先行词offside calls，指物，关系词在从句中作主语，应用关系代词which来引导。故填which。
9．考查连词。句意：虽然裁判肯定会感激这项新技术的帮助，但球员可能需要一些时间来适应皮肤下的芯片。根据句意可知，此处表示“虽然裁判肯定会感激这项新技术的帮助”，应用while引导让步状语从句，意为“虽然；尽管”，且位于句首，首字母需大写。故填While。
10．考查时态和主谓一致。句意：尽管如此，对于足球来说，更准确地判罚比赛的潜力是一大进步。根据上下文语境可知，此处是对客观事实的描述，应用一般现在时，主语potential为不可数名词，be动词应用is。故填is。
