Ⅰ.阅读理解
It was on her 14th birthday that her first book，In the Forest of the Night，was accepted for publication.It was a huge success gaining the attention of millions of young readers.At 16，her second novel，Demon in My View，also reached the bookstores.Several books later，the teenage author still works away in her room，surrounded by shelves full of dark tales about vampires (吸血鬼) and witches (女巫)．Amelia Atwater-Rhodes is widely seen as America's finest teen writer and was named one of Teen People's “20 Teens Who Will Change the World”．
Born in 1984，she began making up stories when she was about three years old.“I never stopped and said，‘I want to write'，”Amelia remembers.“I loved stories and created stories before I was old enough to know how to write them down.”
In her family，reading was basic and fun.“My parents encouraged me to read—and to read anything I wanted，so long as I was reading，” she said.“They never limited what I read.Later，when I started writing，they never criticized what I did or said I was ‘too young'.They never said it was impossible for me to achieve what I have.”
In her short but successful career，Amelia has tried different styles.But vampires were the first characters to really come alive in her work.From them she has developed a whole world，one which she always enjoys learning more about.
As a published teen writer，Amelia's advice to other teens who dream of being authors is: just do it！“I believe anything is possible.Don't give up your dreams just because you fear failure.Getting a book published is difficult，but if I can do it，others can too.”

Ⅰ.阅读理解
When I was a boy there were no smartphones，and our television only got one channel clearly.Still，I never felt bored.The fields，hills and woodlands around my home were the perfect playgrounds whose adventures were only limited by my imagination.I can remember once hiking to a nearby lake and walking slowly around it.At the back of it I was amazed to find an old dirt road that I had never seen before.It was full of muddy tyre tracks and deep woods bordered it on both sides，but exploring it still seemed like a fine adventure.
I walked on and on for what seemed like hours.I was sure my guardian angel was whispering in my ear“turn around and head back home”，but I was stubborn and walked on.There was still neither a car nor a house in sight.I noticed that the sun was starting to go down and I grew scared.I didn't want to end up being trapped on this road，and I was worried that it would be dark before I could make my way back to the lake again.
I continued walking on with something growing inside of me.My heart was pounding and my legs were aching.I was almost in tears when I saw something in the distance.It was a house that I recognized.I jumped up and down and laughed out loud.It was still over a mile away，but my legs felt like feathers and I hurried back to my house in no time.I walked in with a big smile on my face just in time for dinner.Then I ended my adventure with a good night's sleep.
I often thought of that experience recently.Actually，in our life，all roads，no matter how they twist and turn，can lead us home again.They can lead us to our homes here on the Earth.They can lead us to our homes in our hearts.May you always walk your path with love！May you always help your fellow travelers along the way！And may your roads always lead you home again!
[语篇导读] 本文通过作者小时候在自己家附近的一次探险经历，告诉人们一个道理：生活中所有的道路，无论有多曲折，都会引领我们回家。
1．Why did the author hardly feel bored when he was young?
A．He could watch TV all day.
B．He could have fun in nature.
C．He had many friends to play with.
D．He used to explore the old dirt road.
解析：B [细节理解题。根据第一段第三句“The fields，hills and woodlands around my home were the perfect playground whose adventures were only limited by my imagination.”可知，在作者小时候，他家周围的田野、山丘和小树林都是理想的玩耍场所，在那里只有想不到的，没有玩儿不到的。因此，他可以从大自然中寻找快乐，所以从来不感到无聊。]
2．What does the underlined word“something”in Paragraph 3 probably refer to?
A．Doubt. B．Hope.
C．Fear. D．Courage.
解析：C [词义猜测题。根据文章第三段第二、三句“My heart was pounding and my legs were aching.I was almost in tears when I saw something in the distance.”可知，作者内心渐渐地害怕起来。由此可推测，something 在此指“恐惧”，即fear。]
3．How did the author feel when he was exploring the dirt road?
A．He was contradictory in mind.
B．He was unconscious of danger ahead.
C．He was worried to be trapped in the woods.
D．He was afraid of being scolded by his parents.
解析：A [推理判断题。根据第一段最后两句“At the back of it I was amazed to find an old dirt road that I had never seen before.It was full of muddy tyre tracks and deep woods bordered it on both sides，but exploring it still seemed like a fine adventure.”可知，探索这条泥土路似乎是一个很好的探险经历；再根据第二段可知，作者同时又感到害怕。所以作者走在这条路上时，心里是矛盾的。因为作者想去探险，又感到害怕，所以C项说法片面；文章中没有提及作者害怕被父母责备，故排除D项。]
4．What may be the best title for the passage?
A．Every Effort Is Worthwhile
B．All Roads Lead Home
C．Be Determined in Your Life
D．Be Brave to Explore
解析：B [标题归纳题。根据最后一段中的“Actually，in our life，all roads，no matter how they twist and turn，can lead us home again.”可知，本文的主旨是：生活中所有的道路，无论有多曲折，都会引领我们回家。]
Ⅱ.阅读填句
Amy，a student in the USA，says that the best diet is to reduce what you eat and do plenty of exercise.Get involved in extra activities and never eat after 9 p．m.in case what you have eaten turns fat because your body system slows down in the evening and also while you sleep.__1__
David is studying in the USA and he believes that it is a good idea to increase the fiber he eats.__2__ Fresh is the best: beans and special fiber materials are excellent choices.
In the UK，students believe that life as a student can be very difficult.__3__ One student，Jennifer，believes that you should eat well，rest well，take vitamins to supplement your diet and you will stay healthy.
But why are so many young people obsessed with diet and exercise? Mostly because they realize they are putting on weight and they know that obesity can lead to illnesses such as diabetes.Why do they put on weight? __4__ They get up late in the morning，dress quickly，eat quickly and then at lunch they often eat fast food and drink soda，both of which are fattening.They then sit chatting to friends，go back to class and sit listening，and late in the afternoon they leave school，meet friends and sit and chat again.If you are like most kids，you might have the same experience.
So，are you a student who is putting on weight? Which of the advice from other students do you think you will act on？__5__ So，think about your health and weight.They are both very important for your well-being and your marks at school.
A．Because they lead an unhealthy lifestyle and eat the wrong foods.
B．A healthy body means both a healthy mind and better marks at school.
C．That means for one whole day they have eaten fattening foods without exercise.

E．Try to go for at least a 10-minute walk after eating，or better still，go for a jog or a bicycle ride.
F．You study hard，find yourself under stress and then spend a long time out with friends relaxing.
G．Because students who don't exercise tend to put on weight sooner and see a drop in their test scores.
[语篇导读] 本文是一篇议论文。作为学生，怎样才能保持健康的饮食呢？本文给出了几种不同的观点。
1．E [第一段首句讲的是要少吃多锻炼，空格前面讲了要控制饮食，所以空处应该与多锻炼有关。E项符合题意。]
2．D [第二段第一句提到要多摄入纤维素，D项介绍了纤维素的来源，符合此处语境。]
3．F [空前说作为一名学生，生活是很苦的，空处应对该句进行具体说明。F项中的“study hard ”“under stress”等信息与空前的“very difficult”相呼应，故选F。]
4．A [空前问的是“他们为什么发胖”，空后提到了他们的一些不良作息和饮食习惯，故空处填A。]
5．B [空前讲到你将会践行哪条建议，空后则说健康和体重对你的幸福和学习成绩都很重要，故B符合此处语境。]

[语篇导读] 这是一篇说明文，主要介绍了美国的劳动节。
1．the [考查冠词。下文讲述了美国劳动节的由来，因此这里特指美国劳动节由来的原因。]
2．contributions [考查名词和名词的数。make contributions to是固定短语，表示“为……做贡献”。]
3．was approved [考查动词的时态和语态。Labor Day与approve之间是逻辑上的动宾关系，故用被动语态；由时间状语“In 1894”可知，这里应用一般过去时。approve表示“批准”。]
4．originally [考查副词。修饰动词“established”要用副词，因此用originally。]
5．to be [考查动词不定式。本句中的and连接两个动词不定式，to bring和to be。]
6．and [考查连词。由前文中的“both”可知，此处应用and。]
7．devoting [考查现在分词。workers与devote是主谓关系，因此用现在分词作后置定语。]
8．how [考查连接词。分析句子的结构可知，remember后是一个宾语从句，从句中缺少方式状语，故用how。]
9．At [考查介词。at the same time是固定短语，意为“同时”。]
10．we [考查代词。根据第二段第一句中的“We must remember”可知，这里应用we。]

Ⅰ.阅读理解
It is natural that children are curious about the world around them.For example，they want to know how their hearts beat (跳)．They want to know why the ocean water tastes salty.
As children grow up，they become curious about different kinds of things.When they are babies，they are interested in the parts of their bodies and in the smiles of their mothers.They become interested in the physical world around them：the plants，the animals，the sky.Later，they become interested in the things that people have made wheels，bicycles，cars.And when they are adults，their curiosity continues.Sometimes this curiosity leads to a career (生涯、职业) in science.
Scientists spend their lives trying to find out about the world.Those who work with the earth sciences study the earth，the oceans，and the sky.Other scientists who study living things work with the biological sciences.A third group of scientists study the physical sciences，e.g.physics，chemistry.These scientists have already discovered a lot about our world.For example，they tell us why your heart beats fast when you run.They say that when you are quiet，your heart normally beats sixty－five or seventy－five times a minute.Your heart is a pump (泵) that pumps blood to all parts of the body.The blood carries oxygen and nutrition.When you run，your muscles(肌肉)work very hard and use the nutrition that the blood carries to them.The muscles need oxygen，too.So your brain sends a signal to the heart.The signal means that the muscles need more nutrition and oxygen.Then the heart beats fast and sends blood quickly to the muscles.It may beat 90 to 140 times a minute.
Of course，scientists cannot answer all of our questions.If we ask，“Why does the ocean water taste salty？”Scientists will say that the salt comes from rocks.When a rock gets very hot or very cold，it cracks (破裂)．Rain falls into cracks.The rain then carries the salt into the earth and into the rivers.The rivers carry the salt into the ocean.But then we ask，“What happens to the salt in the ocean? The ocean does not get saltier every year.”Scientists are not sure about the answer to this question.
We know a lot about our world，but there are still many answers that we do not have，and we are curious.
[语篇导读] 本文是一篇关于好奇心的议论文。不同年龄段的人好奇心也不同，科学家们不能解释的事物就是好奇心的根源所在。
1．Scientists who work with the biological sciences study________ .
A．the earth，the oceans and the sky
B．man-made things
C．plants and animals
D．ocean water
解析：C [推理判断题。由第三段第三句“Other scientists who study living things work with the biological sciences”可知生物科学家研究动植物，故答案为C项。]
2．When you run，your muscles need ________ .
A．more nutrition and oxygen
B．more signals
C．more salt
D．water
解析：A [细节理解题。由第三段中“The muscles need oxygen，too.So your brain sends a signal to the heart.The signal means that the muscles need more nutrition and oxygen”可知答案为A项。]
3．A rock cracks ________ .
A．in wet regions
B．in dry regions
C．at very high or very low temperatures
D．when salty water falls in
解析：C [细节理解题。由倒数第二段中“When a rock gets very hot or very cold，it cracks(破裂)可知答案为C项。]
4．People are always curious because ________ .
A．they cannot explain many things
B．they know nothing about the world
C．they know little about the world
D．they want to be scientists
解析：A [细节理解题。由最后一句“We know a lot about our world，but there are still many answers that we do not have，and we are curious.”可知答案为A项。]

16．A.nice B．cheap
C．bad D．real
解析：A [根据hosts sometimes get mad可知，此处在介绍爱彼迎存在的问题，所以有时和陌生人住在一起并不像网上看起来那么好。故A项符合语境。]
17．A.Also B．Instead
C．Though D．Therefore
解析：A [also 意为“也，此外”；instead意为“相反；而不是”；though意为“尽管”；therefore意为“因此”。根据语境可知，上文在举例说明，此处为所举的另一个例子，故前后为并列关系，故选A项。]
18．A.surprise B．trip
C．mess D．joy

19．A.projects B．cities
C．businesses D．agents

C．trend D．increase

Ⅰ.阅读理解
Mr.Brozina is a single father and an elementary school librarian who reads aloud for a living.When his daughter，Kristen，hit fourth grade，he proposed The_Streak ：to see if they could read together for 100 straight bedtimes without missing once.
When The Streak reached 100，they celebrated with a pancake breakfast，and Kristen whispered，“I think we should try for 1,000 nights.”
Mr.Brozina was delighted，but what he was thinking was，a thousand nights？！“I thought，we'll never do it，” he recalled.“And then we got to 1,000，and we said，‘How can we stop？’”
For 3,218 nights (and some mornings，if Mr.Brozina was coming home too late to read)，The Streak went on.It progressed from picture books to middle-school classics to Harry Potter，Agatha Christie，Dickens and Shakespeare，continuing on，until Kristen's first day of college.
In those nine-plus years，they survived many close calls.When Kristen was still in elementary school，her father went to Washington.“The phone rang at 10：45 at the hotel and it was Kristen，” Mr.Brozina recalled.“She said，‘Dad，we forgot The Streak！’ Fortunately，I always traveled with several books and we read right then and there.”
This spring，Kristen graduated from Rowan' University.She has performed as you'd expect for a product of The Streak，an English major with a 3.94 average.She also won two national writing contests，was an editor of the humor arid literary publications and won the annual English department award.

Ⅱ.阅读填句
There is a collection of positive habits that make a person successful in class.__1__.
Here are some habits of top students that you can use as tips to do better at school：
Firstly，__2__.In college，homework assignments generally make up 5%～20% of your grades，but can be the most time-consuming thing for most students.Working out problems is one of the best ways to turn new concepts into working knowledge，but you'll never see an exam with a large majority of those problems，which takes you hours and hours.
Secondly，they never“read through”the textbook.Compared with the others，reading the textbook is one of the least effective methods for learning new materials.__3__，or use Google，lecture notes，and old exams as study materials.
Thirdly，they test themselves frequently.Testing yourself strengthens your brain's connections to new materials.__4__.Moreover，repetitive self-testing can significantly improve long-term memory for new materials.
Lastly，they study in short bursts.Studying in short bursts tends to help you focus strongly because you know there is at least a short break coming.__5__，which makes your study continuous for multiple hours on end.
A．It helps relax our mind
B．they always focus on their homework
C．they don't always do all of their homework
D．Top students use examples and practical problems
E．This also fits in nicely with our natural activities or the rest cycles of our bodies

G．An accumulation of such habits can combine to produce high-level academic performance.
[语篇导读] 文章论述了四个能让一个人在学习中做得更好的积极的学习习惯。
1．G [细节句。根据空前信息可知，有一些积极的习惯能让一个人在学习中成功，由此判断，G项信息“such habits”与上文一致，即这种习惯的积累可以结合产生高水平的学术表现，同时G项引出下文内容。]
2．C [主旨句。根据下句可知大学里的作业很占用时间，根据“Working out problems is one of the best ways to turn new concepts into working knowledge”可知，要注重实践。C项说明尖子生并不总是做全部的作业，符合本段内容。故选C。]
3．D [过渡句。本段讲尖子生的学习技巧，他们从不通读教科书。D项“尖子生利用例子和实际问题”与上句连接，符合语境。故选D。]
4．F [细节句。本段讲尖子生经常测试自己，以及自测的好处。F项“它会向你立刻、清晰地反馈你是否知道某些事情”与上句并列，都是讲自测的好处。故选F。]
5．E [细节句。本段讲尖子生擅长短时间学习。下文讲短时间集中精力学习的好处，E项“这也很好地与我们的自然活动或身体的休息周期相吻合”符合本段内容，故选E。]

[语篇导读] 人们在某些特殊场合都会放飞气球，这无疑是令人兴奋的，但是它对环境造成了极大破坏，并威胁到了野生生物的生命，这样五秒钟的兴奋感值得吗？作者建议我们想出更有创意的合理的庆祝方式。
1．lives [考查名词单复数。句意为：但是它的确造成了对环境的极大破坏并威胁到了野生生物的生命。life作“生命”讲时是可数名词，根据our wildlife可知应用复数形式，故填lives。]
2．staying [考查非谓语动词。句意为：当气球飞向天空时，它不会最终停留在那里。end up doing sth.意为“以做某事而告终或结束”，为固定结构，故填staying。]
3．sadly [考查词性转换。句意为：更不幸的是，它们会对许多动物造成威胁。此处应用副词作状语，故填sadly。]

5．harmful [考查词性转换。句意为：鸟类、鲸、海龟和其他动物经常会把气球错当成食物，这会对它们造成伤害，因为气球含有有害的化学物质。此处应用形容词作定语，修饰名词chemicals，故填harmful。]
6．its [考查代词。句意为：当动物吞食气球后，气球会堵塞它的肠道，导致饥饿。设空处修饰intestinal tract，应用形容词性物主代词。故填its。]
7．is permitted [考查动词的时态和语态及主谓一致。句意为：很多地方允许放气球的部分原因是一些气球最终会分解。主语releasing balloons与permit为被动关系，且描述的为一般性事实，应用一般现在时的被动语态；releasing balloons为单数概念，故填is permitted。]
8．to break [考查非谓语动词。句意为：然而，它要花费大约四年的时间才能完全分解。It takes some time to do sth.为固定结构，意为“花费时间做某事”，故填to break。]
9．but [考查连词。句意为：看到数以百计的气球缓缓升上天空，可能会带给你五秒钟的兴奋感，但是这导致大量的动物死亡，许多地方垃圾成堆，真的值得吗？前后部分为对比转折关系，故填but。]
10．What [考查名词性从句。句意为：我们应该做的是发挥创意，想出另外的方法去庆祝。此处是主语从句，从句中缺do的宾语，故填What。]

Ⅰ.阅读理解
Almost no young people today know who the cartoon character Oswald the Rabbit is，but they certainly recognize his successor，Bugs Bunny.Oswald，Bugs，and hundreds of other characters were created by Walt Disney，perhaps the most famous cartoonist in history.
Born in Chicago in 1901，Walt Disney always wanted to be an artist.After returning from World War I，in which he drove an ambulance，Disney worked as a commercial artist.He enjoyed drawing cartoons more than anything else，and decided to try his hand at a technology that was new at the time，moving pictures.
In the 1920's，he produced several films where he made cartoon characters move as if by magic.The technique Disney used was painstaking .He made hundreds or even thousands of repeated drawings of the same character.In each drawing，the character was changed just a bit.A film was taken of the series of drawings，and when it was shown，the characters appeared to move.The process，called animation，is still used today，although computers have made the process much easier.
In 1928，Disney created his most famous character，Mortimer Mouse，who we know today as Mickey.The mouse starred in a cartoon called Steamboat Willie，which was unusual because it involved the use of a sound track.Within the next few years，Disney invented many of his other characters.
The list of Disney's animation successes is long and memorable.It includes Pinocchio，Dumbo，Bambi，Cinderella，and Peter pan.Perhaps his most remarkable animated film is Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs.Created in 1937，it was an immediate success.Today，more than fifty years later，it is still one of the most popular films for children.
1．What is one of the chief differences between animation today and in Walt Disney's early years?
A．More people like animated movies.
B．Fewer people like animated movies.
C．Computers have made the job easier.
D．Computers have made the job harder.
解析：C [细节理解题。根据短文第三段最后一句：这个过程称作动画片制作，今天仍然在使用，尽管电脑已使得制作过程容易多了。故此题正确答案为C。]
2．What makes the film Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs so remarkable?
A．It was a little success when created.
B．It took more than a year to make it.
C．It was made at a time when there were no computers.
D．It has remained popular for more than fifty years.
解析：D [细节理解题。根据短文最后一段最后两句话可知，动画片《白雪公主和七个小矮人》刚创作出来时就很成功，五十年之后它仍然是最受孩子们喜爱的影片之一，这正是它与众不同之处。]
3．What does the underlined word “painstaking” (Para.3) probably mean?
A．Something that hurts because it involves hard work.
B．Taking a long time and involving much hard work.
C．Requiring a lot of effort，like running a marathon.
D．Requiring many fine tools，such as pens and pencils.
解析：B [词义猜测题。由下文的“He made hundreds or even thousands of repeated drawings of the same character.”以及后面两句可以推断出painstaking的意思是“辛苦的，费心的”，即B为正确答案。]
4．The secret of animation is to________ .
A．make drawings that are exactly the same，then film them
B．choose names for characters that make people remember them
C．combine music，voices，and sound effects with pictures
D．make a film of many drawings that change just a little
解析：D [推理判断题。第三段的“The process，called animation”之前的内容就是对animation的解释。]

With cold weather drawing up，heating begins in various ways.Among all the means，using natural gas is becoming more and more popular.
One of the primary advantages of natural gas is that it is much friendlier to the environment.What I mean is that it sends fewer emissions into the atmosphere when burned.Natural gas also gives off a lot of heat as it burns very hot.This property of natural gas makes it good for heating homes and for cooking.Compared with burning coal or using air-conditioners，using natural gas will cost less，which can help people save a lot of money.What's more，natural gas can heat up the house in a short time and keep the air indoors fresh.
So I think using natural gas to heat is a better way.
