四、阅读理解（每小题2.5分，共10分）
Can you imagine being able to remember every single experience of your life and every word in your favorite book? That’s what Becky’s life is like, and as wonderful as it sounds, it can also be quite terrifying at times.
Three years ago, Becky was reading a newspaper article which mentioned that it was impossible for people to remember the details of their life in the first three years. “What nonsense(胡说八道)!” she thought, because she could clearly remember her life all the way back to when she was just 12 days old. Her parents had carried her to the driver’s seat of their car and laid her down for a photo. But it wasn’t nonsense. She was just one of only 80 known people who have a condition called HSAM(Highly Superior Autobiographical Memory).
Becky’s unusual condition was recently shown on a program called 60 minutes, where reporter Allison tested her ability by asking her questions about her favorite book series, Harry Potter. Allison would pick up a book and open a page and read her a line. Immediately Becky would name the book, chapter number, chapter name and could recite every word until Allison told her to stop.
Being able to remember every little detail is a great ability, but as every person with HSAM will tell you, it can be very hard to deal with. Forgetting is one of the things we use to get over sad experiences in our lives, but it’s something that people like Becky are unable to do. Even walking on the street and lightly bumping(撞) into somebody brings back memories from Becky’s childhood, when a boy knocked her over. She’s taken right back to that time, living the experience all over again. Also, like Becky, people with HSAM never do well in school, because they have problems filtering(过滤) through all the information, remembering only the important bits.
Becky’s special brain could help scientists find a way to treat people with terrible illnesses like Alzheimer’s. Her condition could hold the secret to treating or even preventing Alzheimer’s.
26. What does Paragraph 2 mainly talk about?
A. What people with HSAM feel like.
B. Why HSAM is unfamiliar to people.
C. How Becky knew she was different.
D. How Becky spent her early childhood.
27. Why was Becky asked questions on 60 minutes?
A. To help treat her illness.
B. To advertise Harry Potter.
C. To test her ability to remember.
D. To encourage other kids to read.
28. Which of the following troubles Becky?
A. She can’t forget her painful experience.
B. She feels tired remembering everything.
C. She can’t get along well with other kids.
D. She is different from other kids of her age.
29. Why does Becky do poorly at school?
A. She feels sad every time she studies.
B. She remembers too much information.
C. She can’t deal with difficult problems.
D. She can’t understand the teacher in class.
五、七选五（每小题3分，共15分）
I work as a meteorologist(气象学家) in Tampa, Florida. It’s my job to follow hurricanes(飓风) and provide information about them to scientists.
I was working for the National Meteorological Office in Bracknell, near London, in the autumn of 1995, and I saw a documentary called Stormchasers with family. 30.____ Two months later I came across an ad for a meteorologist to work in Florida. I was interviewed over the phone, moved to the US, and started to work here in Tampa in May 1996.
31. I have been all over the world hunting hurricanes. It’s exciting to end up in different cities and different countries day after day. If you are a meteorologist, you have to love flying. I also love working with top scientists. 32. For me, it’s like a classroom in the sky.
People often ask me what an average day is like. In fact, there’s no such thing as an average day in my job! 33. We often take off at a moment’s notice to hunt storms.
Next, I would like to join a space program and be the first meteorologist in space. 34. There aren’t any hurricanes!
If you also want to be a meteorologist, study math and science and get a degree in meteorology. I have taken the hurricane hunter path, but you could do research.
A. I have learned so much from them.
B. What I like most about my job is the travel.
C. It’s a wonderful job and the pay is pretty good.
D. It all depends on the weather, and you can’t control that.
E. However, I haven’t come up with an experiment to do in space yet.
F. Because of the job, I’m away from my family who all live in the UK.

（本卷满分100分）
一、阅读理解（每小题2分，共16分）
A
You probably know who Marie Curie was, but you may not have heard of Rachel Carson. Of the outstanding ladies listed below, who do you think was the most important woman of the past 100 years?
Jane Addams(1860-1935)
Anyone who has ever been helped by a social worker has Jane Addams to thank. Addams helped the poor and worked for peace. She encouraged a sense of community(社区) by creating shelters and promoting education and services for people in need. In 1931, Addams became the first American woman to win the Nobel Peace Prize.
Rachel Carson (1907-1964)
If it weren't for Rachel Carson, the environmental movement might not exist today. Her popular 1962 book Silent Spring raised awareness of the dangers of pollution and the harmful effects of chemicals on humans and on the world’s lakes and oceans.
Sandra Day O’Connor (1930-present)
When Sandra Day O’Connor finished third in her class at Stanford Law School, in 1952, she could not find work at a law firm because she was a woman. She became an Arizona state senator(参议员) and, in 1981,the first woman to join the U.S. Supreme Court. O’Connor gave the deciding vote in many important cases during her 24 years on the top court.
Rosa Parks (1913-2005)
On December 1, 1955, in Montgomery, Alabama, Rosa Parks would not give up her seat on a bus to a white passenger. Her simple act landed Parks in prison. But it also set off the Montgomery bus boycott. It lasted for more than a year, and kicked off the civil- rights movement. “The only tired I was, was tired of giving in,” said Parks.
1. What is Jane Addams noted for in history?
A. Her social work.
B. Her teaching skills.
C. Her efforts to win a prize.
D. Her community background.
2. What was the reason for O’Connor’s being rejected by the law firm?
A. Her lack of proper training in law.
B. Her little work experience in court.
C. The discrimination against women.
D. The poor financial conditions.
3. Who made a great contribution to the civil-rights movement in the U.S.?
A. Jane Addams.
B. Rachel Carson.
C. Sandra Day O’Connor.
D. Rosa Parks.
4. What can we infer about the women mentioned in the text?
A. They are highly educated.
B. They are truly creative.
C. They are pioneers.
D. They are peace-lovers.
B
Ask any new college graduate about his immediate goals, and it is likely that he will tell you he wants a job. But it turns out that today’s students are not going to be satisfied with any job. According to the latest survey, making a difference through their work is essential(必要的) to young people’s happiness.
The survey found that 72 percent of graduating college seniors believe being able to have a positive social influence through their work is essential to their happiness. Making a difference is so important to them that 45 percent say they would take a 15 percent pay cut to work at an organization that has a social or environmental influence, and 58 percent say they would take a pay cut to work for an organization whose values are the same as their own.
Besides this, the survey found that female students are far more likely to put social influence in first place than their male classmates, echoing the results of a former study showing that female maths and science majors are more likely to say they go into those fields to make a difference.
One reason for the emphasis(强调) on improving the world probably has to do with the culture of colleges, which encourages students to connect their studies back to real-world problems. Students are used to discussing important social issues(问题) with their friends and professors, and doing something about them in class or through volunteer activities. Once students develop those habits, they don’t shut them off when graduation rolls around.
5. What does the underlined word “echoing” in paragraph 3 probably mean?
A. Learning. B. Repeating.
C. Believing. D. Creating.
6. What is one of the reasons for the emphasis on students wanting to improve the world?
A. The habits students develop in society.
B. The appearance of important social issues.
C. The encouragement of the culture of colleges.
D. The effect parents’ education has on their children.
7. What can you learn from the passage?
A. Young people will surely gain happiness if they can make a difference in their work.
B. Less than half of the college seniors will take a pay cut to work with the same values.
C. Most college graduates believe it important to have a positive social influence in work.
D. Female graduates are all putting more social influence in first place than male graduates.
8. Which could be the best title for the passage?
A. Female Students Are Concerned about Society
B. Young People’s Happiness Doesn’t Depend on Money
C. Graduates Become More Interested in Challenging Jobs
D. Many Graduates Would Take a Pay Cut to Make a Difference
二、七选五（每小题2分，共10分）
As we “happen to be” the best creature in the world, it’s our duty to look after other species(物种). Here are some points which might help to protect wildlife.
Join organizations like Greenpeace and World Wildlife Fund. They have devoted themselves to protecting the earth and its animals. Many volunteers join organizations like these and work for the environment. 9.
10. Don’t buy something made from ivory(象牙) and things like this. Baby seals(海豹) are hunted for their skin, as it is used to make expensive coats. Don’t buy them.
11. You can write a heartfelt and logical(合理的) letter to the government stating your ideas about this problem and how it can be solved.
Recycle(回收利用) and reuse. It will reduce the need to have more raw materials to produce something. 12. And wild animals’ home will not be destroyed.
Governments should create more safe zones and national parks for wild animals. 13. Governments should apply strict laws to stop hunting.
I hope this post was helpful. Share your views about this issue and let your voice be heard.
A. Let your voice be heard.
B. Stop hunting for pleasure.
C. As a result, fewer trees will be cut down.
D. You can build a bird house and feed local birds.
E. Refuse fur coats and medicines made from rare animals.
F. You can find some organizations like these and join them.

一、阅读理解（每小题2分，共16分）
A
1-4 ACDC
本文是一篇人物传记类短文，介绍了Jane Addams、Rachel Carson、Sandra Day O’Connor、Rosa Parks四位在社会工作、环境保护、反对性别歧视以及人权运动方面做出了很大贡献的先驱者的相关事迹。
1. 细节理解题。根据第二段第一句“Anyone who has ever been helped by a social worker has Jane Addams to thank. Addams helped the poor and worked for peace.”可知受到社工帮助过的人都要感谢Jane Addams，因为正是她建立庇护所并为需要帮助的人提供教育和服务，以培养人们的团体意识。她也由此获得了诺贝尔奖。她是因为社会工作而被历史铭记的。故A项正确。
2. 推理判断题。根据第四段第一句“When Sandra Day O’Connor finished third in her class at Stanford Law School, in 1952, she could not find work at a law firm because she was a woman.”可知当O’Connor完成大学学业时候，却因为自己是女性找不到律师事务所的工作。说明当时有歧视女性的现象。故C项正确。
3. 细节理解题。根据文章倒数第二句“But it also set off the Montgomery bus boycott. It lasted for more than a year, and kicked off the civil-rights movement.”可知正是Rosa Parks的不愿意让座给白人引发了美国的人权运动。故D项正确。
4. 推理判断题。文章里提到的四位杰出女性在社会工作、环境保护、反对性别歧视以及人权运动方面做出了很大的贡献，都是先驱者。故C项正确。
B
5-8 BCCD
这是一篇说明文。本文讲述的是通过工作能有一个积极的社会影响对年轻人的幸福至关重要。
5. 词义猜测题。结合文章第三段第一句“Besides this, the survey found that female students are far more likely to put social influence in first place than their male classmates”（除此之外，调查发现女生比男生更有可能把社会影响放在第一位）和后一句“the results of a former study showing that female maths and science majors are more likely to say they go into those fields to make a difference.”（以前的一项研究结果显示，数学和科学专业女学生所占的比例更有可能说她们进入这些领域是为了有所作为）可以推断出两项调查的结果是一致的。都说明了女性更愿意在工作中做出影响。选项B和echoing在文章中的意义相近。故选择B项。
6. 细节理解题。根据最后一段的第一句“One reason for the emphasis(强调) on improving the world probably has to do with the culture of colleges, which encourages students to connect their studies back to real-world problems.”（强调改善世界的一个原因可能与大学文化有关，大学文化鼓励学生将他们的学习与现实世界的问题联系起来。）可以看出，选项C（大学文化的鼓励。）符合文章的意义。故选择C项。
7. 细节理解题。结合文章第二段第一句“The survey found that 72 percent of graduating college seniors believe being able to have a positive social influence through their work is essential to their happiness.”（调查发现，72% 的大学毕业生认为通过工作产生积极的社会影响对他们的幸福至关重要。）可以得出结论：多数的毕业生都认可工作产生的社会影响对他们而言是重要的。选项C和结论一致。故选择C项。

四、单句语法填空（每小题2分，共24分）
34.reading; of being read/to be read
句意：——那本书值得一读吗？——值得！它值得一读再度。worth习惯句式为be worth doing（常采用主动表被动），而worthy则常用be worthy to be done或be worthy of being done（被动式），表示“值得（被）做”之意。
35.to let; hurting
句意：——对不起，我并不是有意泄露你的秘密。——但你知道的，泄露一个人的秘密就意味着伤害他。mean to do sth.的意思是“打算或意欲做某事”；mean doing sth.的意思是意味着(必须要做某事或导致某种结果)。
36.with
句意：父母有时会发现和青春期子女交流有困难。communicate with sb.是固定搭配。
37.for
句意：我们应该为独立、自由而战！固定搭配fight for sth.为… …而战。

句意：似乎在提高中国女性的生活的道路上仍然有很多事情要做。It seems that...似乎……，好像……，符合句意。

句意：圣诞节前，室内设计师们忙着用装饰物给屋子装点。分析句子结构可知，第一空应填名词作主语；固定搭配be busy doing忙于做(某事)，故第二空填decorating；decorate A with B意为用B来装饰A，故第三空填写名词形式，且空前没有冠词，故填decorations。
42.is seen
“no+名词+and+no+名词”作主语时，谓语动词用单数；主语和see之间为动宾关系。故用被动语态。
43.referred
句意：有人提议会议中提到的工作任务应即刻完成。
44.to
句意：这座城市是该国家仅次于首都的第二大城市。固定搭配be second to仅次于。
