One Sunday morning, George Thomas, a baker in a small New England town, was walking through the town when he saw a young boy coming toward him, swinging(挥舞) a bird cage in the air. On the bottom of the cage, there were three little wild birds shaking with cold and fear. George Thomas stopped the boy and asked him what he got there.
The boy was happy and told him that there were just some old birds in the cage. When the baker asked him what he would do with the old birds. The boy said casually(漫不经心地) that he wanted to take the birds home and play with them. He would pull out their feathers to make them fight. He would have a really good time because he would enjoy watching these.
George Thomas was shocked by what the boy said. How could a boy be so rude to wild animals? So he continued to ask the boy what he would do to the birds when he got tired of them, because he was such a naughty and cruel boy that he was sure to be tired of them sooner or later. The boy laughed and said that he got a cat, which liked birds, so he would give the birds to his cat. The baker got more worried and decided to help set free the poor birds. So he asked, “How much do you want for those birds, son?”
The boy looked at him in surprise, wondering if the baker really wanted to buy them. He laughed and reminded the man that they were just plain old field birds. The didn't sing; they were not even pretty. However, the baker insisted and continued to ask him how much money he wanted for the birds.
The boy stared at the baker as if he were crazy and said, “$10?”

Then, he looked at the cage with three little wild birds.
Paragraph 2:
The baker picked up the cage. And he gently carried it to the end of the alley where there was a big tree and a grassy spot. Setting the cage down, he opened the door. And by softly tapping the bars he persuaded the birds out, setting them free. The baker watched the birds flying in the sky, smiling. He took the empty bird cage home, singing all the way.

【写作指导】
因为题目中已经明确给我们提示——“描述野生动物种类的变化趋势”。因而在写作时要首先通过分析柱形图四年柱形的高度变化,描述野生动物的发展趋势。然后,参考右边的漫画来分析原因;紧接着根据常识来分析原因。在文章的最后,围绕原因来发表自己的看法和建议。
【参考范文】
Many animals are in danger of dying out. As is clearly shown in the bar chart, the kinds of wild animals have decreased sharply in the past decades.With about 30,000 kinds of animals reduced on average each year, as a result, there were only 1.5 million left till 2010.
There are several reasons accounting for this problem.Apart from the polluted environment and natural disasters, illegal killing is an important reason.Human beings are making attempts to hunt wild animals for fashion or a big profit, which can be seen vividly from the right picture.This has resulted in a sharp decrease in the number of animals.
In my opinion, it is high time for us to take quick action to protect them.A national public campaign should be launched to give animals a good living environment.In addition, the government should pass some firm laws to forbid abuse killing.Only in this way can we live in harmony with wild animals.

The future oceans
With the development of technology, oceans will be made better use of in the future.For example, cities under the sea will be built to provide accommodation for the increasing population.At the same time, more tunnels connecting the land and the oceans will be constructed.Thus, people can choose where to live freely.
Underwater farms will also be developed to produce enough crops and the food problem will be solved.Also, as energy is running out on the land, attention will be paid to the oceans to look for new resources.Let's all make an effort to protect the oceans and create another clean and safe home for us human beings!

A
If you live in a big city, there are many things to drive you crazy on your daily route, and it's not just overcrowded subway trains.
Vicky Zhao is a mainlander working in Hong Kong.For her, one thing she can't put up with is people standing on the wrong side of the escalator(自动扶梯)in subway stations.“Escalators help us move faster and save time.It isn't a place to rest,” the 24-year-old says.“I often see tourists block the way with their suitcases or chatting on the escalators during rush hours.It annoys me to no end.”
Admitting she is not the patient type, Zhao says things are much better in Hong Kong than in cities on the mainland where “stand right, walk left” signs are often ignored.
The logic behind the “stand right, walk left” escalator etiquette(礼仪)seems obvious.Even though you may want to catch your breath while you're transported up or down, you should still consider others and leave enough space for people in a hurry, so that they can run and catch the train.
Many cities' escalators, including London's and Beijing's, use the “stand right, walk left” system to speed up the flow of people.(Australia is an exception and you should stand on the left side instead.)But some cities discourage people from moving on escalators out of safety reasons.In Hong Kong's subway stations there are regular announcements asking people to “stand still” on escalators.Even so, most people in this fast-paced city observe the “stand right, walk left” etiquette.
But the people who stand on escalators defend themselves by telling the walkers not to be so impatient.The BBC quotes one stander as saying:“If the person is in such a rush, why not just take the stairs? Even when the escalator is packed and there's nowhere to move, I see these same people complaining about not being able to pass.”
Whatever the escalator etiquette is in the place you live or visit, do what most people are doing and always be mindful of others: leave enough space between each other, don't stay at the end of the escalator, and if someone is blocking your way, a simple “excuse me” is enough.
( )1.In the second paragraph, the underlined word “It” refers ________.
A.the author's living in the big city of Hong Kong
B.being crowded on the subway trains in rush hours
C.people's blocking the way or chat on the escalators
D.people's standing on the right side resting
( )2.When on the escalator, a majority of local people in Hong Kong ________.
A.stand still as the railway station's require
B.ignore the “stand right, walk left” signs
C.use the stairs instead of escalators
D.follow the “stand right, walk left” etiquette
( )3.What can be inferred from the 6th paragraph?
A.Not everyone follows the “stand right, walk left” etiquette.
B.The BBC is against the “stand right, walk left” etiquette.
C.People should be patient and take the stairs if possible.
D.People shouldn't complain about the crowded escalators.
( )4.Which of the following statements is the writer's opinion?
A.People should stand right no matter where they are.
B.People should do as the Romans do and consider others.
C.People should do as they like on the escalators.
D.People should be seriously criticized when they block the way.

Indians are the world's biggest bookworms, reading on average 10.7 hours a week, twice as long as Americans, according to a new survey.The NOP World Culture Score Index surveyed 30,000 people in 30 countries from December 2004 to February 2005.
Analysts said self-help and desirable reading could explain India's high figures.
Time spent on reading meant fewer hours watching TV and listening to the radio—India came fourth last in both.
The NOP survey of 30,000 consumers aged over 13 saw China and the Philippines take second and third place respectively in average hours a week spent reading books, newspapers and magazines.
Britons and Americans scored about half the Indians' hours and Japanese and Koreans were even lower—at 4.1 and 3.1 hours respectively.
R. Sriram, chief executive officer of Crosswords Bookstores, a chain of 26 bookshops around India, says Indians are extremely entrepreneurial (有开创精神的) and reading “is a fundamental part of their being”.
“They place a great deal of emphasis on reading. That's the reason why they do well in education at home and in universities abroad,”he said.
“People educate themselves and deal with change throughout their lives. And the way to do that is to update themselves with books.”
Mr. Sriram says social changes have also made a difference,“Earlier people could turn to their parents and grandparents for advice. Now they turn to books.”
( )5.The sentence“India came fourth last in both.”in Paragraph 4 means__________.
A.Indians have no time to watch TV and listen to the radio
B.Indians are busy with their work every day
C.Indians spent more time on reading so that they have fewer hours watching TV and listening to the radio
D.people in other countries spent more time watching TV and listening to the radio
( )6.The time that Chinese spent on reading may be__________a week.
A.5.35 hours
B.less than 10.7 hours but more than 5.35 hours
C.more than 10.7 hours
D.10.7 hours
( )7.The Indians do well in education and universities abroad because__________.
A.they have excellent teachers in every school
B.they have qualities that are needed to succeed
C.they put much emphasis on reading
D.they live in a developed country
( )8.Which of the following is not mentioned in this passage?
A.Indians live a very rich life in their homeland.
B.Indians are those who spend much time on reading or studying.
C.Indians are those who spend fewer hours watching TV and listening to the radio.
D.Now the Indians turn to books for advice.

第一部分 阅读理解(共两节,满分35分)
第一节(共10小题;每小题2.5分,满分35分)
阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中,选出最佳选项。
A
Scientists today are making greater effort to study ocean currents(洋流). Most do it using satellites and other high-tech equipment. However, ocean expert Curtis Ebbesmeyer does it in a special way—by studying movements of random floating garbage. A scientist with many years' experience, he started this type of research in the early 1990s when he heard about hundreds of athletic shoes washing up on the shores of the northwest coast of the United States. There were so many shoes that people were setting up swap_meets to try and match left and right shoes to sell or wear.
Ebbesmeyer found out in his researches that the shoes—about 60,000 in total—fell into the ocean in a shipping accident. He phoned the shoe company and asked if they wanted the shoes back. As expected, the company told him that they didn't. Ebbesmeyer realized this could be a great experiment. If he learned when and where the shoes went into the water and tracked where they landed, he could learn a lot about the patterns of ocean currents.
The Pacific Northwest is one of the world's best areas for beachcombing(海滩搜寻) because winds and currents join here, and as a result, there is a group of serious beachcombers in the area. Ebbesmeyer got to know a lot of them and asked for their help in collecting information about where the shoes landed. In a year he collected reliable information on 1,600 shoes. With this data, he and a colleague were able to test and improve a computer program designed to model ocean currents, and publish the findings of their study.
As the result of his work, Ebbesmeyer has become known as the scientist to call with questions about any unusual objects found floating in the ocean. He has even started an association of beachcombers and ocean experts, with 500 subscribers from West Africa to New Zealand. They have recorded all lost objects ranging from potatoes to golf gloves.
( )1.The underlined phrase “swap meets” in Paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to______.
A.fitting rooms B.trading fairs
C.business talks D.group meetings
( )2.Ebbesmeyer phoned the shoe company to find out______.
A.what caused the shipping accident
B.when and where the shoes went missing
C.whether it was all right to use their shoes
D.how much they lost in the shipping accident
( )3.How did Ebbesmeyer prove his assumption?
A.By collecting information from beachcombers.
B.By studying the shoes found by beachcombers.
C.By searching the Web for ocean currents models.
D.By researching ocean currents data in the library.
( )4.What is the purpose of the author in writing this passage?
A.To call people's attention to ocean pollution.
B.To warn people of shipping safety in the ocean.
C.To explain a unique way of studying ocean currents.
D.To give tips on how to search for lost objects on the beach.
本篇为科普说明文。很多科学家采用各种方法研究洋流,但是你听说过通过研究运动鞋来研究洋流的吗?让我们走进一位海洋专家的世界,看看他是怎么研究洋流的吧。
1.B 词义理解题。由画线词后的“to try and match left and right shoes to sell or wear”可以知道,人们在这里建起了买卖鞋子的交易市场,因此是trading fairs。
2.C 细节理解题。由第二段中“He phoned the shoe company and asked if they wanted the shoes back.”可以知道,他打电话问他们是否想把鞋子收回,显然是想打听是否能用他们的鞋子做实验。
3.A 细节理解题。由第三段中“…and asked for their help in collecting information…”可以知道,他从海滩搜寻者那里获得信息,以印证自己的推测。
4.C 写作目的题。通读全文可知,作者向我们讲述了一位海洋专家把在船运事故中漂流到海滩的数万只鞋子拿来研究洋流,目的是向我们介绍一种独特的研究方式。

I began to grow up that winter night when my parents and I were returning from my aunt's house, and my mother said that we might soon be leaving for America.We were on the bus then.I was crying, and some people on the bus were turning around to look at me.I remember that I could not bear the thought of never hearing again the radio program for school children to which I listened every morning.
I do not remember myself crying for this reason again.In fact, I think I cried very little when I was saying goodbye to my friends and relatives.When we were leaving I thought about all the places I was going to see—the strange and magical places I had known only from books and pictures.The country I was leaving and never to come back was hardly in my head then.
The four years that followed taught me the importance of optimism(乐观), but the idea did not come to me at once.For the first two years in New York I was really lost—having to study in three schools as a result of family moves.I did not quite know what I was or what I should be.Mother remarried, and things became even more complex for me.Some time passed before my stepfather and I got used to each other.I was often sad, and saw no end to “the hard times”.
My responsibilities in the family increased a lot since I knew English better than everyone else at home.I wrote letters, filled out forms, translated at interviews with Immigration officers(移民局官员), took my grandparents to the doctor and translated there, and even discussed telephone bills with company representatives.
From my experiences I have learned one important rule:Almost all common troubles go away at last! Something good is certain to happen in the end when you do not give up, and just wait a little! I believe that my life will turn out all right, even though it will not be that easy.
( )5.How did the author get to know America?
A.From radio programs.
B.From books and pictures.
C.From her mother.
D.From her relatives.

本文叙述的是作者搬到美国之后,生活的磨砺让作者从一个悲观失望的人变成了一个积极乐观的人。
5.B 细节理解题。根据第二段中“When we were leaving I thought about all the places I was going to see—the strange and magical places I had known only from books and pictures.”可知,在她去美国之前她是从书本和图片里了解美国的,故答案为B。
6.A 推理判断题。根据第二段后两句“…I thought about all the places I was going to see—the strange and magical places I had known only from books and pictures.The country I was leaving and never to come back was hardly in my head then.”可知,作者离开的时候感受到的不是困惑和担忧,而是兴奋。故选A。
7.C 细节理解题。根据第三段中“For the first two years in New York I was really lost—having to study in three schools as a result of family moves.”可知,作者前两年在三个不同的学校学习。故选C。
C
Climbing wall was once practiced by rock climbers between mountains.Now all kinds of people use them as an alternative to a gym,many with no intention of climbing outdoors.
Statistics show that indoor climbing will replace its traditional outdoor counterpart(对应物)as the country's most popular mountain activity in 6 to 12 months.The sport has been on a rise since 2005.Next year the IOC will decide whether“sports climbing”will enter the Olympics in 2020.
“Indoor climbing is the safest way to do what people think to be an extreme sport,in a relatively pleasant environment,”explains Rob Adie,the climbing walls officer for the British Mountaineering Council.“It's a social experience,rather than just being stuck on a treadmill(跑步机).”
Katy Briers, 23, who has been climbing for the past year,agrees,“It's a combination of brainwork and a physical workout.It's also really open and lovely.”
As Adie explains,women often make better climbers:“In a way women take to it more easily,they have better natural balance.Men tend to muscle through with the strength that they have.If you went to a climbing wall 10 or 20 years ago,it would be male dominated,but as a sport it can be easily reached by women.”
The_Biscuit_Factory gets up to 20 new climbers through the door each day,but it is just one of the 10 to 15 new public climbing walls that open in the UK each year.
Chris Parker,the project manager of a climbing wall construction company,says private walls are also adding to the growth of the sport.
( )8.Climbing wall is now used by many people to ________.
A.practice for climbing rocks
B.do more social activities
C.intend to climb outdoors
D.exercise their bodies as in gyms
( )9.What does the second paragraph mainly talk about?
A.The bright future of indoor climbing.
B.The traditional outdoor climbing.
C.The sport and the Olympics in 2020.
D.The development of indoor climbing.
( )10.The underlined phrase probably refers to ________.
A.an organization B.a factory
C.a company D.a sports club
数据显示,室内攀岩将会超越传统的室外攀岩,继而成为英国最受欢迎的运动。很可能,室内攀岩会成为2020年奥运会比赛的项目。
8.D 推理判断题。根据第一段第二句可知,室内的攀岩运动将会逐渐取代健身房运动。由此可见,越来越多的人会选择室内攀岩来代替健身房健身。
9.A 主旨大意题。根据第二段内容可知,室内攀岩将会取代传统的室外攀岩,而且该运动越来越受欢迎,并有望加入2020年的奥林匹克运动会。由此可见,本段主要讲述了室内攀岩的前景,故A项正确。
10.D 推理判断题。结合本段内容可知,每天早上开门就有大概20位新的攀岩者进来,而且这只是新开的公共攀岩俱乐部之一。由此可推知,“The Biscuit Factory”应该是一家提供室内攀岩的“运动俱乐部”。

While it is impossible to live completely free of stress, it is possible to prevent stress as well as reduce its effect when it can't be avoided.The US Department of Health and Human Services offers the following suggestions for ways to deal with stress.
Try physical activity
When you are nervous, angry or upset, try releasing the pressure through exercise or physical activity.Running, walking, playing tennis, or working in your garden are just some of the activities you might try.__11__ Your body and your mind will work together to ease the stress in your life.
Share your stress
It helps to talk to someone about your anxieties and worries.Perhaps a friend, family member, teacher or even your leader can help you get a better view of what's troubling you.If you feel your problem is serious, you might seek professional help from a psychologist or a doctor. __12__
Take care of yourself
You should make every effort to eat well and get enough rest.If you easily get angry and cannot sleep well enough, or if you're not eating properly, it will be more likely that you will fall into stressful situations.If stress repeatedly keeps you from sleeping, you should consult a doctor.
Make time for yourself
Schedule time for both work and entertainment.Don't forget, play can be just as important to you overall well-being as work.You need a break from your daily routine to just relax and have fun.Go window-shopping or work on a hobby. __13__
Make a list of the things you need to do
Stress can result from disorganization and a feeling that “there's so much to do, and not enough time”.Trying to take care of everything at once can be too much for you and as a result, you may not achieve anything.Instead, make a list of everything you have to do,then do one thing at a time, checking off each task as it is completed.__14__
Go ahead and cry
__15__ It might even help you avoid a headache or other physical effects of anxiety and stress.
A.Do what you want to do.
B.Allow yourself at least a half hour each day to do something you enjoy.
C.Physical exercise will relieve your anxiety and worry and help you to relax.
D.Knowing who to ask for help is an important step in avoiding serious problems later.
E.Set out to do the most important tasks first.
F.A good cry can be a healthy way to bring relief to your anxiety.
G.Laugh when you want to.

作者讲述了在他十二岁时,在黑人不被善待的环境下,历史老师Miss Bean 是如何关注他的经历。
16.D 此处应该是指新的“邻居”,因此答案选neighbours,而不是fellows“伙伴”。friends,relatives也不符合情理。
17.C 由“weren't very welcoming”以及“we should return where we came from”可知,邻居们对“我们”很不友好,因此答案选C。
18.B 从第一段中“I was twelve years old”以及下文内容可推知,向“我”扔石头的应该是“孩子”,所以答案选B。
19.A 由“drove me home”以及下文内容可知,他们把“我”从学校赶回家,因此答案选A。
20.B 依据下文内容可知,Miss Bean对“我”很好,而其他大多数老师都不理会“我”,故答案选B。其他三个选项与take no notice of连用时,不符合语境。
21.D 联系上文可知,此处指Miss Bean对别人如此恶劣地对待“我”感到很生气,因此答案选D。
22.C 从下文“Instead of being unnoticed,I was given…”可推知,Miss Bean对“我”表示尊重,因此答案选C。
23.A 此处是指Miss Bean像教其他任何人一样教“我”,所以答案选A。
24.B 从“to show that I was smart”可知,此处应该是指老师给“我”一个机会,因此答案选B,而不是question“问题”,test“测试”,place“位置”。
25.D 由下句“She insisted on knowing what I thought about difficult questions.”可推断,此处表示Miss Bean让“我”独立思考,因此答案选D。下文中“thinking for yourself”也有暗示。
26.C 结合全文语境及历史知识可知,此处指托马斯·杰斐逊从法国人手里购买路易斯安那地区的做法是否正确,故答案选C。
27.D 依据语境,Miss Bean鼓励“我”独立思考的目的是期望(expected)“我”有自己的观点,所以答案选D。
28.A 根据语境,这里表示“能够支持自己的观点”,故答案选A,back up“支持,有助于”。而不是set up“建立”;put up“举起”;give up“放弃”。
29.B 联系上下文内容可知,此处表示“独立思考是教育的关键”,所以答案选B。
30.B 由下文“the eraser hit me right on the hand”可推知,这里表示Miss Bean把一个黑板擦朝“我”扔过来,故答案为B。
31.A 表示某物处于某种状态,应用“send sth.doing”,因此答案选A。考生易误选C,但make的主语通常是人。
32.D 由“and then started laughing”可推知,学生对老师的举动一开始感到非常吃惊(shocked),而不是excited“兴奋的”,frightened“害怕的”,worried“担心的”。因此答案选D。
33.C 前后句存在因果关系,因此答案选C。
34.B 既然“This incident became famous”以及“it happened to me”,所以学生开始认识“我”,故答案选B。
35.A 依据上下文内容可知,此处是指“我”是如何成为学校里与以前不同的学生,因此答案选A,也与前文“I was twelve years old”相照应。
第二节(共10小题;每小题1.5分,满分15分)
阅读下面材料,在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。
I seldom thought I had a passion. I would sit before the TV all day, thinking about nothing but the next show. It was not long ago that I first learned how important 36.________(have) a passion is to life.
One day I went with Mum 37.________(drop) my sister off at the gym. Then, as Mum stopped at a red light, someone on the roadside caught my eyes. It was a man 38.________(dress) in rags, homeless. That didn't interest me, for I 39.________(see) many like him before.
But the man wasn't sitting down with a sad 40.________(express). He had a radio in his hand and was dancing 41.________(merry) to the music. The radio seemed to be the most precious thing 42.________he had.
“Mum, why does that man have a radio even though he is homeless?” I asked.
“He bought 43.________,”she replied.
“But if he is homeless, why doesn't he use the money to buy food or clothes? He wasted it on something he doesn't need.”
“Well, Sarah, sometimes food and clothes aren't the only important things. We need happiness, too.”
“I see.” The man 44.________care too much about music, so he bought a radio instead of food and clothes. I realized that happiness is the key to life. Without it, there 45.________(be) nothing to look forward to. A passion gives a person the happiness they need to keep going!
这是一篇故事。本篇短文主要通过一位衣衫褴褛、无家可归、食不果腹的男人在无钱购买衣服、食物的情况下去买来一台收音机并伴随着音乐翩翩起舞的故事及母女俩的对话,说明对生活的激情的重要性。
36.having 空格处在句中作主语,故用动词的-ing形式。
37.to drop 这里用动词不定式作目的状语。
38.dressed 此处在句中作定语,dress与sb.是被动关系,故填dressed。
39.had seen 根据前句的时态以及时间状语before提示,用过去完成时。
40.expression 在形容词后应该用名词。
41.merrily 修饰动词dance应该用副词。
42. that 此处为定语从句,先行词为不定代词thing,且被最高级修饰,所以用that。
43.it 此处用it代指收音机。
44.must 此处表示肯定推测,故用must。句意:这个人一定太在乎音乐,所以他买了一台收音机而不是食物和衣服。
45.is there be句型,nothing为主语,be用is。句意:没有它,就没有什么可期待的了。

第二节 概要写作(满分25分)
阅读下面短文,根据其内容写一篇60词左右的内容概要。
Sometimes people complain that getting to work in a big city is no easy matter, just like the popular saying goes, “Taking a bus is too crowded, getting a taxi is too expensive, buying a car is not practical.” It seems that traffic jams and cities go hand in hand. Everyone complains about being stuck in traffic; however, like the weather, no one seems to do anything about it. Needless to say, traffic jam occurs where there are lots of people but limited spaces. However, there are indeed some things you can do to reduce the time you spend in traffic jams.
For example, the highway is not always the fastest way to get from Point A to Point B. Research the area and check online maps to see if you can find a shorter route to work, which usually flows more smoothly during rush hour and can help reduce much of your driving time. From the above you may know that alternative route is of great importance.
Let's take another example. Most of the population works from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m., which means that the majority of traffic jams happen around 7 a.m., and 6 p.m. So if you want to avoid a traffic jam, talk to your manager about arriving at the office earlier and leaving earlier. If some of us and companies can do like this, the conditions of heavy traffic can be changed in a way.
Finally, you can take gymnastic, dance or yoga classes after work to avoid traffic jams. Actually, there are many reasons for us to take exercises classes and to the gym, instead of shopping and entertaining friends after work. This is a clever solution that can also help people improve their health and meet others with similar interests.
【答案】
One possible version:
People in big cities frequently meet the problem of traffic jam(要点1). The author proposes three suggestions to help us better cope with the matter(要点2). People ought to make use of online maps that are originally devised for finding a shortcut(要点3). Negotiation between companies and staff concerning working time is recommended(要点4). People are encouraged to do something beneficial like exercise to avoid the jam(要点5).
