The first people in Canada crossed the Bering Strait from Asia. In the north the Inuit lived by hunting seals, walruses (海象) and whales. They also hunted caribou (北美驯鹿). On the west coast people hunted deer, bear and beaver (河狸). They also fished. On the plains people lived by hunting buffalo. In the east people grew crops of beans, squash (南瓜), maize (玉米) and sunflower seeds.
The first Europeans to reach Canada were the Vikings. In 986 a Viking called Bjarni Herjolfsson was blown off course by a storm and he spotted a new land. However he sailed away without landing. In 1001 a man named Leif Eriksson landed in the new land, which he named Vinland (it was part of Canada). However Eriksson did not stay permanently. Later the Vikings did establish a colony (殖民地) in North America but they abandoned it because of conflict with the natives.
However after the Vikings Canada was forgotten until the end of the 15th century. In 1497 the English king Henry Ⅶ sent an Italian named John Cabot on an expedition across the Atlantic to Newfoundland. Cabot discovered rich fishing waters off the coast of Canada.
Then in 1534 and in 1535~1536 a Frenchman named Jacques Cartier (1491~1557) sailed on two expeditions to Canada. On 10 August 1535 (St Lawrence's Day) he sailed into the St Lawrence River, which he named after the saint.
However no permanent European settlements were made in Canada until the early 17th century. In 1603 a Frenchman named Samuel de Champlain (1567~1635) sailed up the St Lawrence River. In 1604 he founded Port Royal in Acadia (Nova Scotia). In 1608 Samuel de Champlain founded Quebec. (The name Quebec is believed to be an Algonquin word meaning a narrow part of a river). In 1642 the French founded Montreal. The new colony in Canada was called New France. By 1685 the population of New France was about 10,000. By 1740 it was 48,000.

Among the international students in Canada who are struggling to find a job there after graduation, some eventually make it with relative ease.They're the ones who've already built up much internship (实习) experience while still attending university, as their majors offer a co-operative program.
Co-op programs, a feature (特色) of Canadian university programs, allow academic studies to be combined with work experience.During school years, students get to network with employers, gain internship experience in relevant fields, and earn academic credits that count toward their degree or diploma.
Co-op programs are available in most comprehensive universities, like the University of Waterloo, Wilfrid Laurier University and York University.These programs are not only open to students majoring in business but also to many science and art majors.Statistics show that nearly 30 percent of recent foreign applicants have chosen majors that also subscribe to the co-op program.“It's easy to understand,” said a senior education counselor.He noted that working opportunities are provided by employers that build bridges with the university and most of them are well-known companies or local government organizations.Moreover,the average salary for interns is as high as C$30,000 to C$40,000 a year.
Students can choose to work during vacations or term-time freely.The required duration of the internship for undergraduates ranges from eight to twelve months, or four to six months for graduate students.“The programs also benefit those students who want to apply for immigration,” added the counselor.“That's because the policies of many provinces in Canada require a certain length of work experience of the applicants.”

In our everyday lives we meet situations in which we take many things for granted.We only treasure things when they are gone.This is a sad truth of human nature.One day, I found myself as a witness to a similar situation.
One evening, I left work and boarded the train.After entering, I noticed something unusual.The center of the car had a few empty seats while both ends were crowded with people standing.I didn't pay much attention and sat down on one of the empty seats.I sensed a funny smell.It wasn't long before I noticed a homeless person sleeping on three seats in front of me.He was bleeding from his nose.Why wasn't anyone helping him? 
His clothes were torn and he was giving off a strange smell.Along with the smell, his eyes were dull, watery, and red.Occasionally he scratched himself and people looked at him as if he had committed a crime.As the train stopped at stations and more people came in they covered their noses and faced away from him.All the seats around him were empty.
Suddenly, he began to swear at the people around him.A plain-clothes police officer who looked like a construction worker took out his certificate and showed it to the homeless man.The officer, not wanting to touch the homeless man, told him his rights and directed him to exit the train.As the officer walked the man out of the train, the homeless man turned around and said “MY HOME!” and started crying.
A man doesn't value things until they are gone.If he didn't have a home, at least he had freedom.Now he has neither.No one wants to help someone who won't help himself.

Ⅳ.七选五
Some people just know how to start a conversation with anyone, in any place. If you're not one of these lucky types, don't worry. 1
Remark on the surroundings or occasions. If you're at a party, for example, you could comment on the food or the music in a positive way like this: “I love this song.” or “The food is great.”
2 For example, “How is the wine?” or “Who do you know here?”Most people enjoy talking about themselves so asking a question is a good way to get a conversation started.
3 For example, “I really like your purse. Can I ask where you got it?” or “You're really doing well in this. Can you show me how to do it?”
Remark on anything you have in common. People would like your saying “My daughter went to that school, too. How does your son like it?”
4 Don't say something that obviously causes offence and avoid heavy subjects such as politics or religion. Stick to light subjects like the weather, surroundings, and anything you have in common such as movies or sports teams.
Listen effectively. 5 You can't concentrate on what someone's saying if you're thinking about what you're going to say next. The key to effective communication is to focus fully on the speaker and show interest in what's being said. Nod occasionally, smile at the person, and encourage the speaker to continue with “yes” or “uh huh”.
A.Choose subjects you're interested in.
B.Use a praise to create a good atmosphere.
C.Keep the conversation going with small talk.
D.It is not the same as waiting for your turn to talk.
E.Ask specific questions that are related to the drinks.
F.Ask a question that requires more than just a yes or no answer.
G.Here are some ways to have a conversation with someone new.
【解题导语】 本文就如何与别人有效交流提出了几点建议。
1.解析:选G 本句起到承上启下的作用,空前一句表示“如果你不是这类幸运的人,也不用担心”,紧接着下一句应该表述“这里有一些如何与陌生人交流的几点建议”。故选G项。
2.解析:选F 根据设空处后的“How is the wine?”和“Who do you know here?”可知,这里应是教我们怎么提出问题,与别人有效地交流。故选F项。
3.解析:选B 根据设空处后的“I really like your purse. Can I ask where you got it?”和“You're really doing well in this. Can you show me how to do it?”可看出这些都是赞美的话。故选B项。
4.解析:选C 根据设空处后的“Stick to light subjects like the weather, surroundings ...”可知,C项中的small talk与此处的light subjects相呼应。故选C项。
5.解析:选D 本段内容强调倾听的重要性,根据本空后一句表达“当你在思考接下来要说什么的时候,你就不会专心听别人讲话”,言外之意,我们不要等着机会去说话,而要专心去听。故选D项。

A
I picked up my two best friends and we were off on a road trip. I had just returned to America from a year abroad in China. So, naturally I wanted to take a trip to Canada.
Montreal, the second largest city in Canada, is a four-hour drive from my home in New Hampshire. We felt a thrill as we crossed the border into Canada. It was the first time I had ever driven across an international border. We turned on the radio to try and find some Canadian stations.
After dropping off our bags at our hotel, we were immediately walking down the famous St Catherine's Street. While we walked, two things surprised us: how cold it was and how well everyone dressed. The streets of Montreal are like a fashion show. Both men and women look like they stepped out of the pages of a magazine.
All of that fashion has to keep them warm since Montreal is so cold. Last year it broke the record for the most snowfall in North America. To hide from the cold we went into a small diner because we wanted to order Poutine, a very popular snack in Montreal. It is French fries covered in cheese and brown gravy (肉汁). It is delicious.
However, we had a hard time ordering the dish since the official language of Montreal is French. It is actually the fifth largest French-speaking city in the world. But since the rest of Canada speak English, plenty of people were there to help.
We spent the rest of the weekend going to many historical churches and monuments in Montreal. But at night we'd head to the very modern dance clubs and bars. Montreal is a city that sits between the past and the future and the traveller can choose whichever direction he wants to go.
【解题导语】 本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了作者在加拿大蒙特利尔的经历。那里寒冷的天气、人们的服装、美食、著名历史景点等都给作者留下了深刻的印象。

A.The men and women are really the fashion models of a magazine.
B.The portraits of the men and women are printed in the magazine.
C.They are so well dressed that they look like models in a magazine.
D.The men and women like to copy characters in magazines.
解析:选C 细节理解题。根据该段中的“how well everyone dressed”可知,在作者看来,蒙特利尔的人穿着时尚,像杂志里的模特。
2.Which of the following can NOT be concluded from Paragraphs 3~4?
A.The author and his friends couldn't wait to explore the city. 
B.The author wasn't used to the weather of Montreal.
C.The citizens from Montreal care much about what they wear.
D.Montreal often holds fashion shows.
解析:选D 细节理解题。根据第三段第一句话中的“... we were immediately walking ...”可知,作者和他的朋友迫不及待地想参观蒙特利尔。根据第四段中的“To hide from the cold ...”可以推知,作者并不适应那里的寒冷。根据第三段最后两句可知,蒙特利尔的人们非常注重着装。D项文中未提及,故选D。
3.What can we infer from the passage?
A.The author often went to China for a visit.
B.The people they met in the diner were kind and helpful.
C.All the people in the diner were locals.
D.The author went to Montreal on business.
解析:选B 推理判断题。根据第五段中“But since the rest of Canada speak English, plenty of people were there to help.”可推知,作者及朋友在餐馆碰到的人非常友好且乐于助人。

B
Social networks are a big part of nearly every teenager's life in this day and age.Many teens have QQ, WeChat, or Weibo but little do a lot of teens know that they can be held responsible for everything they post for the rest of their lives.Everything you post online is part of a digital footprint that can always be traced (追踪) back to you.That includes every post, even every like, comment, favorite and forward that you have ever committed.All pictures you've posted or will post have been stored in a digital database, and it is the companies' right to keep all of these documents that you believe to have been deleted or hidden.
With every post comes a consequence; whether it is good or bad, what you post could be seen by anyone.That is why you have to be very careful of what you decide to post or comment.
If you think you are safe from Servite finding out about one funny comment you made six months ago on a meaningless picture, you are probably wrong.Recently, a senior, Aaron, at Servite learned this lesson the hard way this year.He wrote a series of ugly comments towards Connelly girls on a web page, ignoring potential consequences.
This student, however, did have to face consequences from Servite as he was removed from all of his leadership roles in the school.Surprisingly enough, he fully agreed with his punishment handed down by the administration and fully understood why he was given such severe discipline (处罚).“When you agree to come to Servite, you are agreeing to defend what Servite stands for,” the young man said. “That continues from 8 a.m. to 2 p.m..It's at all times.”
So, next time you're about to post something you think could be received as offensive or inappropriate, think twice, or don't press the “Send”.

On the way there it suddenly began to rain heavily, so he ran down the mountain quickly. When he got to the foot of the mountain, he found that the wooden bridge was under the water. He had to spend the rainy night in a broken house. ?He was so cold that he could hardly fall asleep.
The next morning the rain stopped but the bridge was damaged. He thought the river was not deep, so he tried to swim across it. ?In the center of the river, the water nearly washed him away. Luckily, he was saved by two farmers, but he lost his bag. Then they gave him some food and dry clothes. ?With eight dollars in all his pockets, he bought a train ticket and went back in the afternoon.

C.Winnipeg Parking Authority.
D.Recycling/Garbage Collection.

Everyone seems to be living for someone else.
I had once helped a friend of mine run a watermelon stall. I noticed something interesting when people came to buy watermelons, but nobody paid any attention to it because it seemed to be a common practice: almost every buyer would lift the melon up to their ear, smartly rap it, apparently trying to listen to something. I wondered what they expected to hear. Finally I could no longer hold back my curiosity and made bold to ask a customer—an elderly gentleman—about this. Hearing my question, he roared with laughter. Then he replied in a self-mocking tone,“Young lady, I have been doing this for more than fifty years. But all I know is that everybody would stare at you like you were a fool if you just pick up a melon and leave.”
Not long after that, my watermelon stall friend sent me an invitation to her wedding, which really surprised me. I asked her, “How come you're seized by a sudden whim to get married? I even didn't know you had got a boyfriend.” She answered while counting money, “Everyone has to get married anyway. So, it is better to get married sooner than later.”
Have they forgotten their own heart? It may be safer and save a lot more worries to swim with the tide. The use of WE or US will give one a steady and sure sense of pride. But why do people usually feel uneasy when using “I”?
I find these somewhat funny.We have got used to following others' example. We feel at ease and justified simply because this is a way of US, a way having been practiced by so many people. But this massive practice is still wrong though we all follow suit. And in turn, we also take it for granted that we should judge the right and wrong of others by our own standard.
【解题导语】 作者通过身边人的事例,发现人们在生活中往往“随大流”,盲从别人,没有跟随自己的内心。
24.Why did the elderly gentleman rap the watermelon before buying it?
A.Because he expected to hear something.
B.Because he knew nothing about it.
C.Because he just followed suit.
D.Because he was a fool.
解析:选C 细节理解题。根据第二段最后一句“But all I know is that everybody would stare at you like you were a fool if you just pick up a melon and leave.”可知,老人不知道敲西瓜的确切原因,只是看到别人都在敲,如果自己不敲一下,会被人认为是一个傻子。故选C项。
25.Which of the following can best replace the phrase“swim with the tide” in the fourth paragraph?
A.Follow the crowd.
B.Swim against the tide.
C.Wear other people's clothes.
D.Follow your heart.
解析:选A 词义猜测题。根据第四段第三句“The use of WE or US will give one a steady and sure sense of pride.”可推断出,本句中的tide(潮水)指的应该是“WE or US”,而swim with the tide意为“跟随人群,随大流,从众”。故选A项。
26.What will be most likely written about by the author in the next paragraph?
A.Nothing.
B.A story about following your heart.
C.A funny story about how to follow your heart.
D.An example about judging others by your own standard.
解析:选D 推理判断题。根据最后一段末句“... we also take it for granted that we should judge the right and wrong of others by our own standard.”可推断出,下文可能会与“用自己的标准评价别人”有关。故选D项。
27.Which is RIGHT according to the passage?
A.The author's attitude to “follow others' example” is positive.
B.The author understood why people rapped a watermelon at last.
C.The author felt unexpected when her watermelon stall friend wanted to get married.
D.The practice of following suit makes people feel at ease and justified only because it is a way of America.
解析:选C 推理判断题。根据第三段第一句“...my watermelon stall friend sent me an invitation to her wedding, which really surprised me.”可知,朋友的婚礼出乎作者的意料。故选C项。
C
If you're planning on travelling, there are a few simple rules about how to make life easier both before and after your journey.
First of all, always check and double-check departure (起程) time. It is amazing how few people really do this carefully. Once I arrived at the airport a few minutes after ten. My secretary had got the ticket for me and I thought she had said that the plane left at 10:50. When I arrived at the airport, the clerk at the departure desk told me that my flight was closed. Therefore, I had to wait three hours for the next one and missed an important meeting.
The second rule is to remember that even in this age of credit cards, it is still important to have at least a little of the local currency (货币) with you when you arrive in a country. This can be necessary if you are flying to a place few tourists normally visit. A few years ago I was sent to Tulsa, Oklahoma. I flew there from London via (经由) Dallas, with very little time to change planes in between. I arrived there at midnight and the bank at the airport was closed. The only way to get to my hotel was by taxi and because I had no dollars, I offered to pay in pounds instead.
“Listen! I only take real money!” the driver said angrily. Luckily I was able to borrow a few dollars from a clerk at the hotel, but it was embarrassing (令人难堪的).
The third and last rule is to find out as much as you can about the weather at your destination before you leave. I feel sorry for some of my workmates who travel in heavy suit and raincoats in May, when it is still fairly cool in London or Manchester, to places like Athens, Rome or Madrid, where it is already beginning to get quite warm during the day.
【解题导语】 本文是一篇说明文。文章就旅行时需要注意的问题提出了自己的建议,如确定起程时间、携带一定数量的当地货币以及确定目的地的气候等。

A.the author gave him false money

解析:选A 主旨大意题。本文第一段已经明确主题:“... there are a few simple rules about how to make life easier both before and after your journey.”,接下来的段落做了详细说明。故选A项。
D
May Day, the first day of May, is celebrated as a spring festival in many countries.It marks the approach of summer.
The English developed their May Day festival from the Roman festival called Floralia.In the festival of Floralia, the Romans gathered flowers to honor the goddess of spring, Flora.In the Middle Ages, May Day became the favorite holiday of many English villages.People gathered flowers to decorate their homes and churches, sang spring songs and chose a king and a queen of May.Villagers danced around a tall pole fixed upright in the ground, called a maypole, each holding the end of a ribbon attached to the top of the pole.They tied the ribbons around the pole until it was covered with bright colors.They collected dew (露水) on May Day morning and washed their faces with it because they believed that the dew on the day had the magic power to regain youth.
Nowadays in Britain people no longer attach great importance to the day, but in some towns and villages people still celebrate it by choosing the May Queen and dancing around the maypole.May Queen is a girl selected as the most beautiful girl on May Day.She is usually crowned with flowers and often driven in procession through the street.In the United States, the day has never been celebrated with the same enthusiasm as in Britain.
But in many American towns and cities, children celebrate the day with dancing and singing.They often gather flowers in handmade paper baskets and hang them on the doorknobs of the homes of their friends' and neighbors' on May Day morning.At May Day parties, children select May Queen, dance around the maypole, and sing May Day songs.
【解题导语】 本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了欧洲国家的传统节日“五朔节”。
32.What do we know about the May Day in Britain in the Middle Ages?
A.People dressed in bright colors.
B.People celebrated it with enthusiasm.
C.People presented flowers to the goddess of spring.
D.People stayed at home instead of going to churches.
解析:选B 细节理解题。根据第二段内容特别是第三、四句可知,在中世纪,英国人通过举行各种活动,热情地庆祝五朔节。故B项正确。
33.Why did people wash their faces with dew on May Day?
A.To bring good luck.
B.To become prettier.
C.To get magic power.
D.To get young again.
解析:选D 细节理解题。根据第二段最后一句“They collected dew (露水) ... had the magic power to regain youth.”可知,人们在五朔节用露水洗脸,是因为他们相信露水在当天有恢复青春的魔力。故D项正确。
34.Paragraph 3 is mainly developed .
A.by comparison B.by space
C.by process D.by classification
解析:选A 写作方法题。根据第三段第一句“Nowadays in Britain people no longer ... dancing around the maypole.”可知,如今在英国,在一些城镇和村庄,人们仍然通过选择“五朔节女王”和围绕五月柱跳舞来庆祝五朔节。根据第三段最后一句“In the United States, the day has never been celebrated with the same enthusiasm as in Britain.”可知,在美国,人们从来没有以像英国人那样的热情来庆祝这一节日。据此可以判断,该段是通过比较美国和英国如何庆祝该节日展开的。故A项正确。
35.Nowadays, many American children celebrate May Day with lots of activities EXCEPT .
A.hanging flowers on the doorknobs of their friends' homes 
B.selecting May Queen and dancing around the maypole
C.gathering flowers in handmade paper baskets and singing May Day songs
D.collecting dew on May Day morning and washing faces
解析:选D 细节理解题。根据最后一段中的“They often gather flowers ... and sing May Day songs.”可知,如今在美国,孩子们通过选择“五朔节女王”、围绕五月柱跳舞、将花篮挂在邻居家或朋友家的门把手上、演唱五朔节的歌曲来庆祝这一节日,故排除A、B、C三项。根据第二段最后一句“They collected dew (露水) ... had the magic power to regain youth.”可知,用露水洗脸是中世纪英国人的做法,而不是现在美国儿童的做法。故D项正确。

How to Set Goals
Whether you have small dreams or high expectations, setting goals allows you to plan how you want to move through life.Some achievements can take a lifetime to attain, while others can be completed in a day. 36
·Determine your life goals.Ask yourself some important questions about what you want for your life.What do you want to achieve today, in a year, and in your lifetime? The answers to this question can be as general as “I want to be happy” or “I want to help people”. 37
·Set specific goals.Be specific and realistic about what it is that you want to achieve.Research shows that setting a specific goal makes you more likely to achieve it. 38 For example, “Be healthier” is too big and vague to be a helpful goal.“I want to eat more vegetables, and I want to run a marathon” is better.
·Write out your goals. Be detailed, be clear, and include your steps. 39 Keep your list in a place where you can get informed frequently.This will help keep you motivated.
· 40 You may find yourself set in your ways concerning broad life goals, but take the time to re-evaluate your smaller goals.Are you accomplishing them according to your timeline? Are they still necessary to keep you on track towards your larger life goals? Allow yourself the flexibility to make some small changes to your goals.
A.Adjust your goals.
B.Track and measure your progress.
C.Having deadlines will keep you motivated.
D.Consider what you hope to achieve in 10, 15, or 20 years.
E.Here are some important ideas that you may find helpful.
F.Writing them down tends to make them become a little more real.
G.Remember that you may need to break large goals into smaller goals.

One possible version:
Dear Tom,
I am happy to hear about your plan to travel around Beijing by bike. It is a good city for cycling because it is flat and therefore is convenient for bikes. And you don't have to buy a new bike since you can rent one in Beijing with your passport. Moreover, you can always find a mechanic in the city if your bike breaks down on the road. Parking lots are everywhere, too. 
Before you start a day's ride, I suggest you spend some time preparing for it,and you may want to take a map with you in case you get lost. I hope you can enjoy your cycling experience in Beijing, and above all, keep safe. Let me know if there's anything else I can help.
Yours,
Li Hua
