A．阅读理解
阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。
Machines in the home have a short history.Sewing machines, washing machines and tumble dries are common enough today, but a hundred years ago few people could even imagine such things.However, inventors have designed and built a wide range of household machines since then.In most cases the inventor tried to patent(申请专利) his machine, to stop anyone copying it.Then he tried to produce a lot of them.If the machine became popular, the inventor could make a lot of money.
In 1790 the first sewing machine was patented.The inventor was an Englishman called Thomas Saint.There was nothing to match his machine for forty years, and then someone built a similar device.He was a Frenchman, Bartelemy Thimonier.Neither of these early machines worked very well, however.It wasn't until 1846 that an inventor came up with a really efficient sewing machine.He was an American, Elias Howe，and his machine was good enough to beat five skilled sewing women. He didn't make much money from it, however.The first commercially successful sewing machine was patented by Isaac Singer five years later.
Today, we take washing machines for granted, but there was none before 1869.The revolving drum(旋转桶) of that first machine set a pattern for the future, but it was crude by today's standards.The drum was turned by hand, and needed a lot of effort.Eight years passed before someone produced an electric washing machine.The world had to wait even longer for a machine to dry clothes.The first spin?drier was another American invention, patented in 1924; but it was 20 years before such machines were widely used.
It was yet another American, called Bissell, who introduced the carpet sweeper.He patented the original machine back in 1876.It didn't pick up dirt very well, but it was quicker than a dustpan and brush.Thirty?six years later, even the carpet sweeper was old?fashioned: modern homes now have a vacuum cleaner(吸尘器) with an electric motor to suck the dust.
( )1.Whose sewing machine could do far more than the work that was done by five skilled sewing women?
A．Thomas Saint's.
B．Bartelemy Thimonier's.
C．Elias Howe's.
D．Isaac Singer's.
( )2.According to the article, modern inventors ________.
A．follow the pattern of the first revolving drum but improve it much
B．only imitate the first washing machine
C．power the first ever?made washing machine by electricity
D．have to wait for the first spin?drier for a long time
( )3.The underlined word “crude” in the sentence “but it was crude by today's standards” (Para.3) probably means ________.
A．useless
B．ugly?looking
C．rough
D．not skillfully made
( )4.The article mainly tells us about ________.
A．the great inventors in the world
B．the important inventions in the world
C．the short history of household machines
D．the importance of the machines used in the home
B．七选五阅读
根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
A child can be molded(塑造) in the way that you want him or her to be.For giving the best education to the child, it is very important to teach him or her in a positive atmosphere.__1__ So to let a young child have patience is very important.
To do this, first of all, educators need to establish a sense of trust for children.__2__ However, as the child grows, it becomes easier to introduce the practice of patience.It is often seen that a child is able to practice learning patience with a positive attitude.Teaching the lessons of patience to children can be milestones of development of different age levels of children.
__3__ If you really want to teach your kid these basic qualities, there are so many creative ways which might help you.__4__ If parents start telling them patience in their day?to?day life, children do catch it and implement (实施) it in their lives.Babies can sense, see and hear reactions.Small children are already very aware of their surroundings and more sensitive to actions and reactions adults make.
Parents can show them examples of enduring patience and introduce them to famous people.__5__ Teach them how to handle the situations with more patience so that they can become a better person later on.
A．How can you teach patience lessons to a child?
B．Every parent dreams his child can practice a bit of patience.
C．It also reflects what a child is able to do and cannot yet do.
D．Following heroes' lifestyles could be an interesting method too.

B.概要写作
阅读下面短文，根据其内容写一篇60词左右的内容概要。
It's a really good idea to visit colleges before you apply because their websites can all start to look and sound the same. Nothing will give you the sense of what it will actually be like to live on a college campus(校园) like visiting and seeing for yourself the dorms， classrooms and athletic equipment and， of course， the students. It seems a little crazy once senior year hits to find the time to visit college campuses， and it can also be pricey if the schools you are applying to happen to be more than a car ride away. But keep in mind that you are making a decision about the next four years of your life， and do all the research you can to make sure you are making the right one.
There's no excuse not to visit the schools in your local area. In fact， a lot of college applications even ask if you have visited campus， and obviously， if you live across the country that won't be as much of a possibility， but if you live nearby， go check it out！
If campus visits aren't going to happen before you apply， at the very least you should find some time between applying and getting your acceptance letters to visit schools you'd like to attend. It can save you a lot of heartache if you rule out now the things that you don't like about certain campuses， things that you wouldn't know unless you actually visit.
Now， if time and money are making it impossible， then check out the online college fairs at CollegeWeekLive. It's a chance to chat online with admissions officers， students， and college counselors(顾问)， and it won't cost you a penny！ You can register for its online college fair at collegeweeklive. com. While visiting an online college fair can't take the place of an actual campus visit， it can be a very useful tool that along with all your other research will help you make an informed decision about which colleges or universities you'd like to attend.
【答案】
One possible version：
To decide wisely which colleges to attend， you are advised to pay a visit to colleges before you apply， especially the ones you live close to(要点1). At least you should visit the schools you want to go to(要点2). If you can't go and check it out for lack of time and money， visit the online college fairs at CollegeWeekLive， where you can get necessary information(要点3). ?Period 4 Using Language

The inventor of the world wide web, Tim Berners?Lee, has won an important award which comes with a prize bag of one million euros(￡671,000)．The “Father of the Web” was named as the first winner of the Millennium Technology Prize by the Finnish Technology Award Foundation.He said he had just been “in the right place at the right time” and did not want his photo taken.
In 1991, he came up with a system to organize, link and browse (浏览) Net pages which revolutionized the Internet.The British scientist was knighted (封爵) for his pioneering work in 2003.
Sir Tim created his program while he was at the particle physics institute, Cern, in Geneva.The computer code he came up with let scientists easily share research findings across a computer network.In the early 1990s, it was called the “world wide web”， and is still the basis of the web as we know it.
The famous man never went on to commercialize his work.Instead he worked on expanding the use of the Net as a channel for free expression and cooperation.
“The web is encouraging new types of social networks and opening up new ways for information management and business development.The web has significantly improved many people's ability to obtain information central to their lives，” said Pekka Tarjanne, chairman of the Millennium Technology Prize award committee.
Just under 80 people from 22 countries were nominated (提名) for the prize for their work in the areas of health, communication, new materials and the environment.
The Millennium Technology Prize was set up by the Finnish Technology Award Foundation, an independent body backed by the public and private money which aims to recognize outstanding creations.
Sir Tim currently heads up the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in Boston, where he is now based as an academic.
( )1.It can be learned from the first two paragraphs that ________.

If you have a bad habit of losing things, a new device that can be connected to any item that you might lose may be the way to solve your problem.The Tile, a small square linked up to your iPhone or iPad via Bluetooth, lets you see how close you are to the missing item, within a 50?to 150?foot range.If the item goes out of your phone's 150?foot range, it can still be detected on other smartphones with the same app.
When you log into the app on your phone, it shows you, with green bars that increase or decrease, how far away you are from the Tile.You can also program it to make a sound when you get close to the Tile.And you can link up your phone with up to ten Tiles.And if your lost item —a dog, for example, or a stolen bike － goes out of your own phone's 150?foot Bluetooth range, you can set it as a “lost item”．If any of the phones with the Tile app comes within the range of your lost item, a message will be sent to your own phone, reminding you of its position.The Tile app also has the function to remember where it last saw your Tile, so that you can easily find where you left it.
Since the Tiles use Bluetooth rather than GPS, they never run out of battery or need to be charged, and they last for one year before needing to be replaced.The app, which will come into the market this winter, works with iPhone 5S, iPhone 6, iPad Mini, iPad 3rd and 4th generation, and iPod 5th generation.
( )5.The Tile app can help you__________.
A．find your missing items
B．use your phone more wisely
C．save your phone's battery power
D．connect something to your phone
( )6.Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
A．The Tile needs to be charged after a year of use.
B．One smart phone can only be linked up to one Tile.
C．The Tile cannot work when linked up to a phone without Bluetooth.
D．A missing item can't be found if it goes out of the needed range.
( )7.What does the second paragraph mainly tell us?
A．What the Tile app is.
B．How the Tile app works.
C．The advantages of the Tile app.
D．Why the Tile app was invented.
( )8.Where does this passage probably come from?
A．A science fiction novel.
B．An advertisement.
C．A personal diary.
D．A news report.

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，从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中，选出最佳选项。
A
Here's a good deed you can do without parting with a single thing.Synthetic (合成的) voices for people who have lost the ability to speak only come in generic (一般的) types — think of Stephen Hawking's voice — but one amazing project wants to build custom voices for each person.To do that they need your help：specifically, a recording of your voice.
VocalID is the brainchild of two speech scientists, who are turning their research into a much larger project.Voice is very personal and, like a prosthetic (假体的) leg or arm, it makes sense it should be customized to each person.
Here's how it works — and don't worry, this does not mean someone will be walking around with the same voice as you out there：
After recording a couple of hours of audio in, say, a quiet room with an iPhone, you send it to VocalID, where a program called ModelTalker cuts it up into the basic units of speech that can be recombined as new words and sentences.In that same step, characteristics of the patient's voice — based on what limited sounds they can make — are mixed with the donor's to create a whole new one.
VocalID is still in its beginning stages, and they're looking for help from everyone including voice donors, financial support, and programmers.A priority (优先的事物) is making voice donation even easier, cutting down recording time, especially for kids.But as it stands already, your voice is just about the easiest thing to donate.
( )1.Stephen Hawking's voice ________.
A．has no personal characteristics
B．was donated by a volunteer
C．was created by VocalID
D．sounded amazing
( )2.We can infer that VocalID aims to ________.
A．do research on voices
B．teach some people to speak
C．produce prosthetic legs or arms
D．help some people have their “own” voice
( )3.To create a new voice, which of the following is/are needed?
A．Sounds made by the patient.
B．A few days of audio recording.
C．The voice of at least two donors.
D．ModelTalker that can combine words.
( )4.What is the main purpose of the text?
A．To introduce some jobs in VocalID.
B．To encourage readers to donate their voice.
C．To advertise a program called ModelTalker.
D．To collect money for people who cannot speak.
【语篇解读】本文是说明文，介绍了如何给不会说话的人捐献声音。
1．A 推理判断题。由第一段中的“Synthetic(合成的) voices for people …custom voices for each person.”可知，史蒂芬·霍金那样的合成语音是一般的类型，而一个新的项目想要为不能讲话的人制作个性化的声音。据此可推断，史蒂芬·霍金的合成语音没有个性特征。
2．D 推理判断题。由第一段中的“one amazing project wants to build custom voices for each person”及第二段中的“Voice is very personal and…it makes sense it should be customized to each person.”可知，VocalID旨在帮助人们拥有有个性特征的声音。
3．A 细节理解题。由第四段中的“characteristics of the patient's voice — based on what limited sounds they can make — are mixed”可知，要在捐献的声音的基础上制作一个新的声音，需要患者自己发出的声音。
4．B 写作意图题。由文章开头的“Here's a good deed you can do…”及文章末的“your voice is just about the easiest thing to donate”可推断，文章主要是鼓励读者为不能讲话的人捐献自己的声音。
B
Waterpebble: saving water one drop at a time
Introduction：
With Waterpebble, you can know how much water is being used while you are showering and decrease that amount so gradually that it's practically impossible to see.
Aims：
Waterpebble not only encourages people to use less water but also helps people realize the importance of protecting the earth.
Background：
Paul Priestman invented Waterpebble and was originally inspired by a hotel bathroom sign that read, “Please Save Water.”
Usage：
Waterpebble is a small round device that has three light indications of red, orange and green.They indicate “too much”，“just enough” and “Well done! You're saving the planet”．Simply place Waterpebble under the shower and it will record the length of your showers.From that point on it starts gradually encouraging you to reduce your shower time by flashing the appropriate light.During your next shower it will flash green, orange or red.If you have let it go all the way to red, then you have overused the amount of time of your last shower.If you stop showering at green, you have beaten your record.The idea is to limit each shower to six minutes or less.
Effects:
Families who use Waterpebble can look forward to their future water bills.It is a clever and environmentally conscious way to make the process of saving water a more instinctive (本能的) character.Families report that their kids love the idea of playing a role in protecting the planet without being constantly reminded.
For more information, please visit Waterpebble online.
( )5.Waterpebble is designed to________.
A．encourage people to shower every day
B．help people save water while showering
C．help people take a shower more happily
D．record people's shower time accurately
( )6.What inspired Paul Priestman to invent Waterpebble?
A．His love for invention.
B．The fact of lacking water.
C．An experience of staying in a hotel.
D．The importance of taking showers.
( )7.When you take a shower, you should________.
A．turn on the three lights of Waterpebble first
B．set a time limit on Waterpebble ahead of time
C．pay attention to the flashing light of Waterpebble
D．keep Waterpebble's red light flashing all the time
【语篇解读】本文是应用文，话题是科技发明类。本文介绍了Paul Priestman发明的旨在帮助人们在淋浴时节约用水的Waterpebble。
5．B 细节理解题。根据第二段可知，Waterpebble主要用来鼓励人们在淋浴时做到节约用水。
6．C 细节理解题。根据第三段可知，Paul是因为自己在酒店的经历产生了发明Waterpebble的想法。
7．C 细节理解题。根据第五段可知，Waterpebble的指示灯如果是红色，则说明使用者在浪费水，绿色则表明节约用水，所以你在淋浴的时候，要注意Waterpebble指示灯的颜色。
C
Mickey Mouse wants to help kids kick the junk food habit.The Walt Disney Company announced that it plans to advertise only healthier food to kids.
By 2015, all food and drink products that are advertised on its TV channels, radio stations and websites will have to meet the company's nutrition standard for limiting calories and reducing fat, sodium and sugar.Many food, such as fruit drinks, candy and snack cakes, won't meet the standard.
First Lady Michelle Obama called it a “game changer”．“Disney is doing what no major media company has ever done before in the US and what I hope every company will do in the future.”
“This is a landmark (里程碑), because a major media company is taking responsibility for what food they advertise to children，” says Margo Wootan, director of nutrition policy for the Center for Science in the Public Interest.“This should be a real wake?up call to Nickelodeon (an American children's channel) and the Cartoon Network to do the same.”
But the company will still be able to advertise “better?for?you versions (种类) of products that are not perfectly nutritious.” Under the new standards, breakfast cereals that are advertised will have to contain fewer than 10 grams of sugar in a serving, Wootan says.“That's a good step forward, but it's not perfectly nutritious.”
Jon Leibowitz, chairman of the Federal Trade Commission, says Disney is making this move “at perhaps some risk of affecting their incomes, so that's why we should praise them.”
“Food marketing is really important because it shapes the way kids are fed，” Wootan says.“If we don't deal with food marketing to kids, we don't have any chance of addressing childhood obesity.”
Currently, a third of children are overweight, putting them at a greater risk for serious health problems.
At its theme parks, Disney began offering healthier kids' meals serving carrots and other vegetables, fruit, low?fat milk and yogurt at meals，instead of fries and soft drinks.
( )8.The underlined word “it” in Paragraph 3 probably refers to ________.
A．the wake?up call
B．the Walt Disney Company
C．the habit of eating：junk food
D．the nutrition standard in the US
( )9.What does Margo Wootan think of Disney's new move?
A．He thinks it is a risk.
B．He thinks very highly of it.
C．He thinks it will get wide support.
D．He thinks it will affect their incomes.
( )10.What is the main idea of the text?
A．Disney calls for a ban on junk food.
B．Disney aims to help kids lose weight.
C．Disney is to serve healthier food for kids.
D．Disney is to quit taking ads for junk food aimed at kids.
【语篇解读】本文是说明文。文章主要讲了迪士尼将不再为垃圾食品做广告以及社会各界对此的反应。
8．B 推理判断题。文章前两段简要介绍了迪士尼公司新的食品广告营养标准，这里米歇尔评价迪士尼是“规则改变者”，所以it指代的应该是迪士尼公司，B项正确。
9．B 细节理解题。根据第四段中Margo Wootan的话“This is a landmark(里程碑), because a major media company is taking responsibility for what food they advertise to children…”可知，Margo Wootan高度评价迪士尼的新举措，所以应选B项。
10．D 主旨大意题。文章主要介绍了迪士尼将拒绝垃圾食品广告，帮助改善儿童饮食结构，以及社会各界对此的反应，D项概括准确。

阅读下面短文，根据所给情节进行续写，使之构成一个完整的故事。
Last weekend， I went to Mark's new house nearby a forest for a little get?together. After lunch when I was chatting with him and his wife Cody， he asked me， “Hey Tom， have you ever been to a secret spot？” Before I could even finish saying no， Cody and Mark were already at the door with their jackets on. And the next moment we were heading out into the forest with a camera， a fishing net and a plastic bucket(桶).
We walked through the forest along a path by a small river. Breathing the fresh air， we three talked and laughed all the way.
“Hey！ What are you guys doing？” Someone suddenly shouted from behind. Mark and Cody's eyes immediately widened， and without a word they started running. I had no choice but to follow them， getting my shoes wet and dirty with mud. We probably ran for about 10 minutes before Mark and Cody slowed down. I stopped to catch my breath and asked， “Who was that？”
Mark replied， “The most annoying neighbour ever. If he caught up with us， there's no telling what could happen. He is always making fun of us. I dislike him.” We kept walking on for a few more minutes. Then a beautiful lake appeared before our eyes. “Wow！ Amazing！” I shouted and could hardly hold back my excitement. The lake was large and the water was deep and blue， looking so peaceful with tall trees around it.

Paragraph 1：
Looking around， we saw a rubber boat floating by the shore. “How about going boating？” Mark asked. “Good idea.” So we three excitedly jumped onto the boat and rowed far out. I was thrilled to find so many fishes in the lake. Before I could say a word， Mark had cast the fishing net into the water. “Let's wait and see.” Mark smiled mysteriously. “Look this way. Let me take a photo of you two.” Cody said， taking out the camera. Hearing that， I quickly approached Mark. But all of a sudden I lost my balance and fell into the water.
Paragraph 2：
“Help！ Help！ Help！” I was so frightened and cried for help. However， none of us could swim. Mark and Cody tried to pull me up from the water but in vain. Struggling in the water， I was almost exhausted when I felt myself lifted by someone. It was Mark's neighbour， who followed us there and saw what had happened. Without hesitation， he jumped into the water and I was saved.
