第一节(共15小题;每小题2分,满分30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
After learning about these famous women,you'll know you can do a lot for society no matter what. You don't need to be in a specific field,time or environment to make a difference to the world in your lifetime.
Amelia Earhart (1897-1937)
Amelia Earhart was the first woman who ever flew alone across the Atlantic in 1932.She became the first woman pilot in 1935 after flying from Hawaii to California. She began her lifelong dream of flying across the world in 1937.However,her flight went missing on that trip and she was never seen again.
Helena Rubinstein (1870-1965)
Helena Rubinstein moved to Australia in 1902 without the ability to speak English. Later, she founded one of the world's first cosmetic (化妆品) companies after mixing lanolin,which is an oil that comes from sheep's wool,with flowers. Because of that,she became the world's richest woman at the time.
Katharine Hepburn (1907-2003)
Katharine Hepburn was known for playing strong-willed women in her films.
She won four Academy Awards for Best Actress,the most an actress has ever won. Her new dress style made wearing trousers acceptable to women,which wasn't allowed at that time.
Emmeline Pankhurst (1858-1928)
Emmeline was an influential woman activist,who helped British women get the right to vote. She fought along with her husband for the rights of women all the time in the late 19th century and early 20th century. After she lost her husband,she teamed up with her three daughters and formed The Women Social and Political Union,which was best known as the suffragettes (women's right to vote).
21. What was the problem for Helena at first when she moved to Australia?
A. She didn't have money. B. She couldn't speak English.
C. She didn't have work experience. D. She didn't know how to make up.
22. Which of the following words can be used to describe Emmeline Pankhurst?
A. Determined. B. Friendly. C. Honest. D. Patient.
23. What do the four women in the text have in common?

Do you ever throw away food at home? Have you ever thought about what happens to the food that shops and supermarkets don't sell? Well,you might be shocked to find out that about one third of food produced for humans gets wasted. What's more,around 800 million people in the world don't live a healthy life for lack of food.
Many people in the UK and across the world are trying to do something with this situation. They are trying their best to make use of eatable food that is thrown away.
For example,there is a coffee bar in Leeds (UK) whose meals are all cooked with unsold food from supermarkets. The spare food is turned into delicious food to feed the hungry people of Leeds. Customers just pay what they can afford or help the bar wash something. In just ten months,10,000 people were fed at this bar.
Besides,the UK's first food waste supermarket opened last year. The supermarket works on a “pay as you feel” basis. Customers pay whatever they want. Some low-income families have said that it has changed their lives.
“Fuel for School” is another food waste project. Spare food from supermarkets such as dairy,vegetables,fruit and bread is used to feed hungry schoolchildren whose families may not be able to afford to buy them lunch.
More coffee bars like Leeds are being opened in other parts of the UK such as Bristol and Manchester,and it is now becoming a worldwide event.
I think this is an amazing step as food waste is one of the world's biggest problems. I also believe that the law should be changed,so that supermarkets don't throw away so much good food.
24. What does the author think of the coffee bar's action?
A. He thinks it very good. B. He is worried about it.
C. He is doubtful about it. D. He thinks it interesting.
25. What's the goal of “Fuel for School”?
A. Help poor kids choose healthy food to eat. B. Deal with bad food from supermarkets.
C. Make kids perform well in their study. D. Feed students from poor families.
26. Which of the following does the author advise?
A. We buy food based on our ability. B. More coffee bars are opened in Leeds.
C. Restaurants offer children food for free. D. Governments take action to reduce food waste.
27. What is the best title of the text?
A. The Problem of Food Waste Should Be Solved
B. Fuel for School Offers Food to The Poor
C. Different Actions to Solve the Problem of Food Waste in UK
D. Spare Food From Supermarkets Is Thrown Away
C
By the summer of 2005,the Reverend (牧师) Richard Joyner of Conetoe Chapel Missionary Baptist Church realized he was hosting funerals (葬礼) twice a month—a surprising number for his town's tiny population. In this African American town,a quarter of families live an extremely poor life and heart disease kills more 20- to 39-year-olds than car accidents do.
Joyner decided to do something about it. Driving home one day,he pulled over and thought that maybe he'd get further with his eyes open. He looked around,and all he saw was farmland. It gave him an idea:Get the kids to take part in it.
Joyner ran a youth camp,so that summer,he showed the campers how to grow their own food on the small land. The kids,4 to 16 years old,ate up the vegetables they had grown,and the following year,they gave free boxes of vegetables to the old people in the town.
Not everyone welcomed the idea. Some church elders questioned whether it was wise to let kids take part in agrarian pursuit (农业工作). But Joyner saw it differently. “The kids are bringing food to people who need it. They enjoy what they're doing,” he said. At the same time,it improved the health of the community by providing healthy foods.
Today,because of Joyner,that small land has changed into the 21-acre Conetoe Family Life Center. The local hospital,schools and restaurants help the center by buying its salad greens,peppers,strawberries,and other food for people. Research from East Carolina University found that people in Conetoe have lost weight,lowered their blood pressure,and visited the hospital less frequently because of the fresh food and health advice available at the center.
28. What do we know about the town where Joyner lives?
A. It develops very slowly. B. There are not enough churches.
C. Many young people die from accidents. D. People are too poor to live a healthy life.
29. Why did Joyner decide to grow food on the small land?
A. To provide food for kids. B. To teach kids how to plant.
C. To lower the number of deaths. D. To make full use of the small land.
30. What did some church elders think of Joyner's idea?
A. They were doubtful about it. B. They weren't interested in it.
C. They strongly disagreed with it. D. They thought it did harm to kids.
31. What's the result of what Joyner has done?
A. It's unusual. B. It's successful. C. It's unexpected. D. It's unbelievable.
D
Music is an international language. The songs that are sung or played by instruments are beautiful to all people everywhere.
Popular music in America is what every student likes. Students carry small radios with earphones and listen to music before class,after class and at lunch. Students with cars buy large speakers (扬声器) and play the music loudly as they drive on the street.
Adult drivers listen to music on the car radio as they drive to work. They also listen to the news about sports,the weather,politics,and activities of the American people. But most of the radio broadcast is music.
Pop or popular music singers make much money. They make a CD or tape which radio stations use in every state. Once the popular singer is heard throughout the country,young people buy his or her tapes. Some of the money from these tapes comes to the singer. Wherever the singer goes,all the young people want to meet him or her. Now the singer has become a national star.
Besides pop music,there are two other kinds of music that is important to Americans. One is called folk music. It tells stories about the common life of Americans. The other is called western or country music. This was started by cowboys who would sing at night to the cows they were watching. Today,any music about country life and the love between a country boy and his girl is called western or country music.
Serious music for the concert halls is called classical music. Music for instruments is called orchestra music,such as the symphonies (交响乐) of Beethoven. There is opera for singers,ballet for dancers like the story of Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai in China.
32. In what way can music be regarded as an international language?
A. Popular music is what everyone enjoys.
B. The wonderful songs are popular with the world people.
C. When music is played,it seems as if it were speaking to us.
D. Music is so popular that everyone is able to play it.
33. What can we know about music and people in America?
A. Adult drivers listen to news as well as music when they drive to work.
B. Adult drivers never listen to music when they drive to work.
C. Student drivers carry small radios with earphones when they drive on the streets.
D. Students always listen to music before class,in class and after class.
34. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?
A. All people in America like popular music.
B. Pop singers can get all the money from the tapes.
C. Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai is a kind of pop music in China.
D. Now,western or country music is a little different from its beginning.
35. What's the best title of the passage?
A. International Language B. Music in America
C. Pop Music D. Music Listeners
第二节 阅读填句(每题2分,共10分)
根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Getting people to smile is not difficult because most people like to smile. However,if someone is faced with loss or experiencing sadness,they might be less possible to smile. 36
Praise someone to get them to smile. 37 Maybe their hair is styled in an attractive way,or their clothes look nice on them. These are the nice things you can say to probably get them to smile.
38 If you have a family member,a friend or a co-worker that is faced with a life difficulty,pull him/her aside and tell him/her you understand what he/she is going through and that you are there for him/her if he/she needs you. Doing this could help the person feel more connected with those around him/her and this is certainly a reason to smile.
Learn to listen. Again,some people may be so troubled by something that it is hard for them to smile. 39 Often,when a person can speak out what's going on in their lives,to someone who is truly listening,it can relieve some of their burden (负担). When their burden is reduced,they have more reasons to smile.
Make an unexpected phone call. 40 When the person knows someone cares about him/her,he/she can't help but smile about that.

Some are in favor of the idea that students should go online. For one thing,the Internet makes it convenient for them to communicate with each other and get the latest information both home and abroad as well. For another,students can use the Internet as a way to enrich their after-class activities.
However,others raise questions about going online. They argue that most students devote time to playing or chatting online rather than studying or looking up information. What's worse,a few students are even addicted to computer games,which will have a bad effect on their studies.
As far as I'm concerned,I'm for this activity. As long as we use the Internet properly,its advantages outweigh its disadvantages.
