一、阅读理解（每小题2分，满分20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
Personal
transportation
in
America
is
mostly
by
car.
Most
families
have
two
cars,
one
for
the
husband
and
the
other
for
the
wife.
Usually
they
also
have
a
double
garage.
But
in
large
cities,
many
people
take
a
bus
or
a
subway
to
work.
If
they
drive
their
cars,
they
may
have
to
pay
a
high
fee
for
parking
the
car
in
the
city.
In
a
few
cities,
some
workers
come
by
train.
To
travel
from
city
to
city,
most
Americans
use
the
plane
unless
the
distance
is
very
short.
The
plane
is
very
quick
because
they
don’t
want
to
spend
too
much
time
traveling
when
they
work.
Some
cities
located
near
the
water
use
boats
to
bring
people
to
work.
It’s
the
same
in
a
city
in
China
like
Wuhan.
People
there
use
the
boats
to
cross
the
Yangtze
River.
The
right
use
of
transportation
improves
American
life
by
saving
time.
They
always
choose
the
best
way
to
get
to
work
so
they
have
more
time
for
family
life.

of
the
following
is
not

American
Society

Transport

B
In
1997,
I
found
myself
in
a
situation
I
never
thought
I’d
be
in:
alone
and
begging
for
money
in
New
York.
My
father
had
been
separated
from
our
family,
and
my
mother
had
recently
died
of
a
disease
related
to
AIDS.
What
I
remember
most
about
such
nights
is
lying
on
the
cold
stone
floor
and
using
my
backpack
for
a
pillow.
Even
though
I
had
lost
my
family,
I
made
choices
every
single
day
to
turn
my
life
around.
There
was
the
haven(避难所)for
homeless
teenagers
called
the
Door,
a
non-profit(非营利的)
organization
that
provided
me
with
guidance,
medical
care
and
food,
all
of
which
kept
me
going
while
I
completed
my
homework
in
train
stations
and
under
hallway
lights.
Perhaps
it
was
the
most
surprising
help
because
I
did
not
seek
out
—
it
found
me.
The
New
York
Times
told
my
story.
In
the
weeks
that
followed,
dozens
of
strangers
reached
out
to
me
from
all
across
the
United
States.
At
my
high
school,
I
began
receiving
handwritten
letters
of
encouragement.
Strangers
showed
up
bearing
clothes,
books,
and
even
hugs.
Since
the
article
mentioned
I
was
applying
to
Harvard,
one
woman
knitted(编织)
a
blanket
for
me.
She
put
this
note
in
the
box
it
was
posted
in:
"It
gets
cold
in
those
dorms.
May
you
warm
yourself
knowing
that
people
care
about
you."
With
the
help
of
these
people,
my
life
today
is
not
like
at
all
my
life
then.
I
graduated
not
only
from
high
school
but
also
from
Harvard
University.
Before
these
people
—
some
of
them
nameless
—
I
just
didn’t
realize
how
good
people
could
be.
But
now
I
do,
and
I
can
say
that
the
people
who
helped
me
have
forever
changed
me.
They
are
the
reason
behind
my
decision
to
join
the
board
at
the
Door
so
that
I
can
be
part
of
a
small
team
of
people
opening
a
high
school
for
homeless
teenagers.
They
are
the
reason
I
dedicate
my
life
to
opening
pathways
for
others.
And
they
are
the
reason
I
travel
around
the
world
helping
people
change
their
own
lives.

【语篇解读】文章讲述的是作者在最困难的时候得到了社会的帮助,在自己取得成绩后也决定投入到帮助别人的工作中。
3．A
细节理解题。根据第二段中的"I
made
choices
every
single
day
to
turn
my
life
around"可知,作者努力改变她的生活。

段落大意题。根据第三段的内容尤其是第一句"In
the
weeks
that
followed,
dozens
of
strangers
reached
out
to
me
from
all
across
the
United
States."可知,本段主要讲了不同的人用不同的方法来帮助作者。
5．C
细节理解题。通读文章可知,作者母亲因病去世是第一个发生的事情,最后她加入到帮助过自己的组织中进行爱心传递,故d项是最后发生的事。
6．B
推理判断题。因为作者受到了别人的帮助,所以作者打算投入到帮助别人的工作中,这说明爱是可以传递的。
C
English
is
a
very
interesting
language.
It
has
borrowed
words
from
many
other
languages.
Immigrants(移民)
coming
into
the
United
States
have
contributed
many
words
to
the
language,
which
have
kept
their
original
pronunciation.
“Coolie”
and
“kowtow”
were
taken
from
the
Chinese
language,
“kamikaze
from
the
Japanese,
“shampoo”
from
India,
“blitz”
from
German,
“amigo”
and
“Los
Angeles”
from
Spanish
and
so
on.
Many
students
have
studied
English
for
years,
some
as
many
as
eight.
However,
some
students
still
have
difficulty
in
speaking
fluent
English.
Some
know
many
words
but
are
unable
to
discern
them
when
native
speakers
use
them.
In
our
Oral
English
classes
we
will
focus
on
speaking
and
listening
to
native
English
speakers.
For
this
reason,
because
we
are
trying
to
train
your
ears
to
hear
English
and
your
mouths
to
speak
intelligible
(易理解的)
English,
we
will
have
a
rule
that
ONLY
ENGLISH
will
be
spoken
in
our
English
classes.
Anyone
speaking
Chinese
in
class
will
be
required
to
pay
a
fine
in
order
to
encourage
the
speaking
and
understanding
of
English.
If
teachers
enter
a
classroom
and
discover
that
anyone
is
speaking
Chinese,
they
will
require
everyone
in
the
room
to
pay
the
fine.
It
is
everyone’s
job
to
enforce
the
English-Only
rule.
It
is
for
your
benefit.
It
is
because
we
want
to
accustom
(使习惯于)
your
ears
to
hearing
English.
Other
subjects
may
be
learned
solely
from
books
but
the
only
way
to
learn
a
foreign
language
is
to
SPEAK
IT!
Students
are
often
nervous
about
speaking
in
class
at
first
but
we
hope
to
make
the
classes
fun,
so
you
will
forget
your
nervousness
and
learn
to
speak
out.
Enjoy
your
classes.

students
【答案】C
【解析】段落大意题。从第一段的前两句话“English
is
a
very
interesting
language.
It
has
borrowed
words
from
many
other
languages.”可知，本文围绕英语展开，说英语是一门很有趣的语言，它从其他的语言当中引进了很多的词汇。故选C项。
27.
【答案】B
【解析】词义猜测题。分析划线词所在句子可知，句意：一些人知道许多的词，但是在当以英语为母语的人使用这些词的时候他们却不能理解。所以，“discern”的意思应为“仔细识别，明白”。故选B项。
28.
【答案】D
【解析】细节理解题。根据最后一段第一句话“Other
subjects
may
be
learned
only
from
books
but
the
only
way
to
learn
a
foreign
language
is
to
SPEAK
IT!”可知，在作者看来学习一门外语的唯一办法是经常说它。故选D项。
29.
【答案】C
【解析】推理判断题。根据第二段第六句“Anyone
speaking
Chinese
in
class
will
be
required
to
pay
a
fine
in
order
to
encourage
the
speaking
and
understanding
of
English.”可知，为了鼓励说英语和用英语来理解，任何在课堂上说汉语的人都会被罚款。由此可推断，文章是写给中国学生的。故选C项。
二、七选五
（每小题2分，满分10分）
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。
Things
I
Wish
I'd
Known
in
High
School
Sometimes
high
school
seems
like
a
necessary
evil.
Now
at
the
end
of
my
college
journey,
I
know
that
there
are
still
more
things
I
could
have
done
to
make
my
high
school
experience
more
beneficial.
1
Take
a
class
that
scares
you
during
high
school.
The
experience
will
definitely
prepare
you
for
future
academic
challenges.
Don't
worry
about
your
grades
too
much.
Getting
a
B
is
not
the
end
of
the
world.
2
I
have
started
college
with
all
A's
since
seventh
grade,
and
it
was
hard
to
deal
with
not
being
able
to
repeat
that.
I
stayed
away
from
taking
some
harder
courses
I
might
have
done
well
in
because
I
was
afraid
of
doing
poorly.
Now,
I
can
fully
accept
that
if
I
try
my
best
in
at
least
one
harder
class
and
get
a
B+,
that
is
still
something
to
be
proud
of.
Find
your
own
de-stressing(解压)
routine.
Another
essential
skill
to
begin
building
in
high
school
is
how
to
manage
work
and
stress.
Maybe
you
deal
with
stress
by
going
for
a
run,
or
watching
a
silly
movie.
Talk
with
a
friend
for
a
while
or
play
with
your
dog.
3
Spend
your
summers
wisely.
Don't
take
on
a
full-time
job
the
first
summer
you
decide
to
work.
4
Do
find
something
to
do
that
will
make
the
ten
weeks
worthwhile.
Look
for
programs
that
take
you
to
interesting
places,
or
a
job
that
will
give
you
insights
into
something
you
might
be
interested
in.
Finally,
remember
to
have
fun.
Your
life
does
not
depend
on
high
school.
5
You
will
have
plenty
of
time
to
work
hard
in
college
and
beyond.
Be
prepared,
but
don't
stress
out
too
much
about
it.
If
you
can
make
your
high
school
experience
fun,
you
will
have
no
problem
doing
the
same
for
your
life
in
college
and
beyond.
A.
In
fact,
it's
a
kind
of
good
thing.
B.
Take
full
advantage
of
your
brain.
C.
You
do
have
to
be
active
in
making
friends.
D.
Do
your
best,
but
leave
time
for
fun
with
friends.
E.
They
will
be
improved
if
you
make
great
efforts.
F.
Find
out
what
relaxes
you,
and
you
will
feel
less
stressed.
G.
Forty
hours
a
week
will
be
a
huge
shock
and
you'll
have
plenty
of
time
for
that
in
the
future.

阅读下面短文,从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中,选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。
Two
weeks
earlier,
my
son,
Ben,
had
got
in
touch.
He'd
moved
to
England
with
his
mum
when
he
was
three
and
it
had
been
13
years
since
I'd
1
seen
him.
So
imagine
my
2
when
he
emailed
me
saying
he
wanted
to
come
to
visit
me.
I
was
3
!I
arrived
early
at
Byron
Bay
where
we
were
supposed
to
4
.
The
bay
was
5
in
sunshine,
and
there
was
a
group
of
kayakers
around
150m
off
the
shore.
Getting
a
little
6
,
I
realized
one
kayak(皮划艇)was
in
7
.“Something's
not
8
!”I
took
off
my
T-shirt
and
9
into
the
water.
I
saw
there
were
two
instructors
on
board
and
a
man
lying
across
the
middle.
He
was
10
violently.
Linking
arms
with
one
of
the
instructors,
I
helped
11
the
young
man
out
of
the
water.
He
was
unconscious
and
as
I
looked
at
his
face,
something
12
to
me.
Those
brown
eyes
were
very
13
.“What's
his
name?”
I
asked
the
instructor.
“Ben,”
he
replied,
and
immediately
I
14
.
That
stranger
was
my
son!
The
instructors
called
for
an
ambulance.
15
,
after
a
brief
stay
in
hospital,
Ben
was
well
enough
to
be
allowed
to
16
and
later
the
family
met
up
for
dinner.
We
chatted
about
everything
and
then
Ben
17
to
me.
“I
just
want
to
say
thank
you,”
he
said.
“You
18
my
life!”
I
still
can't
believe
what
a
19
it
was.
I'm
just
so
glad
I
was
there
20
to
help
my
son.

【语篇解读】作者的儿子从3岁就和他的母亲搬到英国了,13年后给作者发邮件要来一处海湾和他相见。巧合的是,作者竟然在那里救了久未谋面的儿子。
1.D
句意:他三岁的时候和他的母亲搬到了英国,自从我上次见到他,时间已经过去13年了。It
is/has
been/had
been+时间段+since...表示“自从……以来,已经过去多长时间了”。also也;often经常;even甚至;last上一次。根据句意可知选D。
2.A
根据语境可知,和儿子13年未见,要见到自己的儿子了,作者肯定很“高兴”。delight高兴;relief宽慰;
anger怒气;
worry担心。

根据下一句作者很早就到达了即将见面的海湾可知,作者很激动。scared害怕的;shocked震惊的;thrilled激动的;ashamed羞愧的。故选C。
4.C
根据第一段可知,作者的儿子要来看他,所以作者到达他们要见面的海湾。talk谈论;stay停留;meet会面;settle定居,解决。

句意:海湾沐浴在阳光下,离海岸大约150米的地方有一群划皮艇的人。bathed被(光线)覆盖;clean干净的;deep深的;form形成。
6.B
上句提到划皮艇的人离海岸大约有150米,那作者只有再靠近(closer)一点儿,才能意识到其中一艘皮艇遇到了麻烦。故选B。
7.A
见上题解析。trouble麻烦;advance前进,进展;question问题;battle战斗。
8.B
意识到一艘皮艇遇到了麻烦,作者才会在心里想“有什么事不正常”。real真的;right对的,正常的;fair公平的;fit恰当的。
9.C
要救那位遇险者,作者需要脱掉衣服,然后“潜入(dived
into)”水里,故选C。stare凝视;sink下沉;dive跳水;fall落下。

根据上文中的a
man
lying
across
the
middle可知,他当时正抖得厉害。argue争论;fight战斗;shout喊叫;shake发抖。

四、语法填空
（每小题1分，满分10分）
阅读下面短文,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
gain
a
lot
of
rewarding
experience
from
some
social
activities.
Our
local
Community
Youth
Club
is
a
very
popular
organization
with
young
people
in
my
town.
I
have
been
a
member
for
four
years
now
and
I've
taken
part
in
a
lot
of
interesting
projects,
1
include
fun
activities
such
as
holiday
camps
and
discos.
We
have
organized
sports
competitions
and
we
have
even
made
a
video.
But
it
isn't
all
just
enjoyment.
We
have
also
started
doing
social
work
to
help
people
in
our
neighborhood.
We
2
(organize)
activities
for
small
children
during
the
holidays.
We
have
also
formed
a
special
support
group
to
help
young
people
stop
3
(smoke).
We
are
particularly
proud
of
the
most
recent
group
we
have
created.
It
organizes
regular
visits
4
the
local
old
people's
home.
My
class
spent
an
afternoon
at
a
home
and
everyone
found
the
visit
very
rewarding.
The
old
people
there
were
5
(talk)
and
they
told
us
their
personal
stories
6
(cheer)
.
During
our
visit,
the
home
was
filled
with
7
(laugh).
But
we
realized
that
life
wasn't
always
easy.
Some
of
them
were
in
poor
health
and
were
very
8
(happy).
Many
young
people
like
me
do
not
live
with
our
grandparents
and
we
have
little
contact
with
elderly
people.
As
a
result,
many
young
people
don't
know
9
they
are
like.
After
this
visit,
my
friends
and
I
decided
that
we
should
do
10
to
improve
the
quality
of
their
lives.

【答案】
【语篇解读】本文主要讲的是作者参与社区活动的感受。
1.which
考查定语从句。which引导非限制性定语从句,先行词是projects,是事物，从句中缺少主语，要用关系代词,故填which。非限制性定语从句不用that引导。
2.have
organized
考查动词时态。句意:我们在假期已经为小孩子组织了一些活动。此句与后句的现在完成时态have
also
formed是并列的,故填have
organized。
3.smoking
考查固定搭配:stop
doing
sth.停止做某事。stop
smoking停止吸烟;戒烟。
4.to
考查介词。visit
to...(对……的参观),其中visit是名词,to是介词。
5.talkative
考查形容词。句意:那里的老人是很健谈的……。此处为形容词作表语,故填talkative(健谈的)。
6.cheerfully
考查副词。副词cheerfully(高兴地)作状语,修饰谓语动词told。
7.laughter
考查名词。介词后加名词laughter(笑声)作宾语,意为“带着笑声”,laughter为不可数名词。
8.unhappy
考查形容词。句意:他们中有些人身体不好,而且很不高兴。空格处用形容词作表语,根据句意填unhappy。
9.what
句意:因此,许多年轻人不知道他们是什么样的。空格处引导宾语从句,并在从句中作介词like的宾语,根据句意可知填what。
10.something
考查复合不定代词。句意:这次拜访后,我的朋友和我决定我们应该做些事情提高他们的生活质量。不定代词something(某事)作动词do的宾语。

Today
is
the
happy
day
in
this
holiday.
Although
I
was
very
tired,
but
I
found
myself
in
these
busy
days.
Usual,
I
am
afraid
of
taking
a
bus.
The
awful
smell
of
the
bus
drives
me
mad,
make
me
feel
carsick.
But
today
I
did
feel
carsick.
I
could
defeat
carsickness
finally.
At
night
I
went
out
with
an
old
friend
I
ever
liked
him,
but
all
of
us
were
so
busy
with
examinations
at
high
school
that
we
hadn't
been
together.
I
was
such
surprised
when
I
received
his
call
that
I
could
hardly
believe
my
ears.
At
first,
I
think
we
would
never
meet
before
we
graduated.
Thank
him
for
giving
me
a
happy
day!
【答案】
1.
第一句：happy→happiest
根据时间范围in
this
holiday可知用最高级。故happy改为happiest。
2.
第二句：去掉but
although和but在一句话中不能同时使用。故去掉but。
3.
第三句：Usual→Usually
此处应用副词修饰整个句子,故Usual改为Usually。
4.
第四句：make→making
句中主语The
awful
smell和动词make是主动关系,所以用动词-ing形式。故make改为making。
5.
第五句：did→didn't或did后加not
根据But及下句I
could
defeat
carsickness
finally.可知我今天没有晕车,根据句意将did改为didn't或did后加not。
6.
第七句：去掉him
此处为定语从句,先行词是an
old
friend,指人,在定语从句中作宾语。定语从句中省略了关系代词that,him多余。
7.
第七句：all→both
all指三者或三者以上,此处代指我和一个老朋友,表示两个人用both。故all改为both。
8.
第八句：such→so
考查固定句型。此处为so...that句型,表示“如此……以至于……”。此处指我感到如此惊讶以至于几乎不敢相信我的耳朵。故such改为so。
9.
第九句：think→thought
根据句中时间状语At
first可知是作者原以为毕业后再也见不到了,根据句意应该用一般过去时,指以前的想法,故think
改为thought。
10.
第九句：before→after
考查连词。此处表示的是作者原以为毕业后他们再也见不到了,故before改为after。

One
possible
version:
Dear
Jack,
I'm
glad
that
you
are
interested
in
the
Scholarly
Campus
activity
in
our
school.
I'm
eager
to
tell
you
something
about
it.
Recently
our
school
has
held
the
Scholarly
Campus
activity
with
the
aim
of
encouraging
us
students
to
read
more
books.
We
have
conducted
several
activities,
such
as
holding
class
meetings
about
books,
opening
reading
clubs,
sharing
reading
experience
and
so
on.
Now
the
concept
of
Scholarly
Campus
is
so
well-received
that
you
can
find
students
reading
books
all
over
the
campus.
As
for
me,
I'm
more
than
happy
to
join
in
the
activity.
Not
only
does
it
arouse
students'
interest
in
reading,
but
it
also
cultivates
students'
love
for
knowledge
and,
more
importantly,
for
life.
I'm
sure
it
will
bring
benefits
for
students.
Wish
you
all
the
best!
Yours,
Li

一、阅读理解（每小题2分，满分20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
Personal
transportation
in
America
is
mostly
by
car.
Most
families
have
two
cars,
one
for
the
husband
and
the
other
for
the
wife.
Usually
they
also
have
a
double
garage.
But
in
large
cities,
many
people
take
a
bus
or
a
subway
to
work.
If
they
drive
their
cars,
they
may
have
to
pay
a
high
fee
for
parking
the
car
in
the
city.
In
a
few
cities,
some
workers
come
by
train.
To
travel
from
city
to
city,
most
Americans
use
the
plane
unless
the
distance
is
very
short.
The
plane
is
very
quick
because
they
don’t
want
to
spend
too
much
time
traveling
when
they
work.
Some
cities
located
near
the
water
use
boats
to
bring
people
to
work.
It’s
the
same
in
a
city
in
China
like
Wuhan.
People
there
use
the
boats
to
cross
the
Yangtze
River.
The
right
use
of
transportation
improves
American
life
by
saving
time.
They
always
choose
the
best
way
to
get
to
work
so
they
have
more
time
for
family
life.
1．Which
of
the
following
is
not
mentioned
in
the
passage?
A.Personal
transport.
B.Public
transport
C.Transport
between
cities
D.Transport
between
countries
2．Which
is
the
best
title
of
the
passage?
A.The
American
Transport
B.The
American
Society
C.The
Development
of
Transport
D.The
Importance
of
Transport
B
In
1997,
I
found
myself
in
a
situation
I
never
thought
I’d
be
in:
alone
and
begging
for
money
in
New
York.
My
father
had
been
separated
from
our
family,
and
my
mother
had
recently
died
of
a
disease
related
to
AIDS.
What
I
remember
most
about
such
nights
is
lying
on
the
cold
stone
floor
and
using
my
backpack
for
a
pillow.
Even
though
I
had
lost
my
family,
I
made
choices
every
single
day
to
turn
my
life
around.
There
was
the
haven(避难所)for
homeless
teenagers
called
the
Door,
a
non-profit(非营利的)
organization
that
provided
me
with
guidance,
medical
care
and
food,
all
of
which
kept
me
going
while
I
completed
my
homework
in
train
stations
and
under
hallway
lights.
Perhaps
it
was
the
most
surprising
help
because
I
did
not
seek
out
—
it
found
me.
The
New
York
Times
told
my
story.
In
the
weeks
that
followed,
dozens
of
strangers
reached
out
to
me
from
all
across
the
United
States.
At
my
high
school,
I
began
receiving
handwritten
letters
of
encouragement.
Strangers
showed
up
bearing
clothes,
books,
and
even
hugs.
Since
the
article
mentioned
I
was
applying
to
Harvard,
one
woman
knitted(编织)
a
blanket
for
me.
She
put
this
note
in
the
box
it
was
posted
in:
"It
gets
cold
in
those
dorms.
May
you
warm
yourself
knowing
that
people
care
about
you."
With
the
help
of
these
people,
my
life
today
is
not
like
at
all
my
life
then.
I
graduated
not
only
from
high
school
but
also
from
Harvard
University.
Before
these
people
—
some
of
them
nameless
—
I
just
didn’t
realize
how
good
people
could
be.
But
now
I
do,
and
I
can
say
that
the
people
who
helped
me
have
forever
changed
me.
They
are
the
reason
behind
my
decision
to
join
the
board
at
the
Door
so
that
I
can
be
part
of
a
small
team
of
people
opening
a
high
school
for
homeless
teenagers.
They
are
the
reason
I
dedicate
my
life
to
opening
pathways
for
others.
And
they
are
the
reason
I
travel
around
the
world
helping
people
change
their
own
lives.

English
is
a
very
interesting
language.
It
has
borrowed
words
from
many
other
languages.
Immigrants(移民)
coming
into
the
United
States
have
contributed
many
words
to
the
language,
which
have
kept
their
original
pronunciation.
“Coolie”
and
“kowtow”
were
taken
from
the
Chinese
language,
“kamikaze
from
the
Japanese,
“shampoo”
from
India,
“blitz”
from
German,
“amigo”
and
“Los
Angeles”
from
Spanish
and
so
on.
Many
students
have
studied
English
for
years,
some
as
many
as
eight.
However,
some
students
still
have
difficulty
in
speaking
fluent
English.
Some
know
many
words
but
are
unable
to
discern
them
when
native
speakers
use
them.
In
our
Oral
English
classes
we
will
focus
on
speaking
and
listening
to
native
English
speakers.
For
this
reason,
because
we
are
trying
to
train
your
ears
to
hear
English
and
your
mouths
to
speak
intelligible
(易理解的)
English,
we
will
have
a
rule
that
ONLY
ENGLISH
will
be
spoken
in
our
English
classes.
Anyone
speaking
Chinese
in
class
will
be
required
to
pay
a
fine
in
order
to
encourage
the
speaking
and
understanding
of
English.
If
teachers
enter
a
classroom
and
discover
that
anyone
is
speaking
Chinese,
they
will
require
everyone
in
the
room
to
pay
the
fine.
It
is
everyone’s
job
to
enforce
the
English-Only
rule.
It
is
for
your
benefit.
It
is
because
we
want
to
accustom
(使习惯于)
your
ears
to
hearing
English.
Other
subjects
may
be
learned
solely
from
books
but
the
only
way
to
learn
a
foreign
language
is
to
SPEAK
IT!
Students
are
often
nervous
about
speaking
in
class
at
first
but
we
hope
to
make
the
classes
fun,
so
you
will
forget
your
nervousness
and
learn
to
speak
out.
Enjoy
your
classes.

Things
I
Wish
I'd
Known
in
High
School
Sometimes
high
school
seems
like
a
necessary
evil.
Now
at
the
end
of
my
college
journey,
I
know
that
there
are
still
more
things
I
could
have
done
to
make
my
high
school
experience
more
beneficial.
1
Take
a
class
that
scares
you
during
high
school.
The
experience
will
definitely
prepare
you
for
future
academic
challenges.
Don't
worry
about
your
grades
too
much.
Getting
a
B
is
not
the
end
of
the
world.
2
I
have
started
college
with
all
A's
since
seventh
grade,
and
it
was
hard
to
deal
with
not
being
able
to
repeat
that.
I
stayed
away
from
taking
some
harder
courses
I
might
have
done
well
in
because
I
was
afraid
of
doing
poorly.
Now,
I
can
fully
accept
that
if
I
try
my
best
in
at
least
one
harder
class
and
get
a
B+,
that
is
still
something
to
be
proud
of.
Find
your
own
de-stressing(解压)
routine.
Another
essential
skill
to
begin
building
in
high
school
is
how
to
manage
work
and
stress.
Maybe
you
deal
with
stress
by
going
for
a
run,
or
watching
a
silly
movie.
Talk
with
a
friend
for
a
while
or
play
with
your
dog.
3
Spend
your
summers
wisely.
Don't
take
on
a
full-time
job
the
first
summer
you
decide
to
work.
4
Do
find
something
to
do
that
will
make
the
ten
weeks
worthwhile.
Look
for
programs
that
take
you
to
interesting
places,
or
a
job
that
will
give
you
insights
into
something
you
might
be
interested
in.
Finally,
remember
to
have
fun.
Your
life
does

Two
weeks
earlier,
my
son,
Ben,
had
got
in
touch.
He'd
moved
to
England
with
his
mum
when
he
was
three
and
it
had
been
13
years
since
I'd
1
seen
him.
So
imagine
my
2
when
he
emailed
me
saying
he
wanted
to
come
to
visit
me.
I
was
3
!I
arrived
early
at
Byron
Bay
where
we
were
supposed
to
4
.
The
bay
was
5
in
sunshine,
and
there
was
a
group
of
kayakers
around
150m
off
the
shore.
Getting
a
little
6
,
I
realized
one
kayak(皮划艇)was
in
7
.“Something's
not
8
!”I
took
off
my
T-shirt
and
9
into
the
water.
I
saw
there
were
two
instructors
on
board
and
a
man
lying
across
the
middle.
He
was
10
violently.
Linking
arms
with
one
of
the
instructors,
I
helped
11
the
young
man
out
of
the
water.
He
was
unconscious
and
as
I
looked
at
his
face,
something
12
to
me.
Those
brown
eyes
were
very
13
.“What's
his
name?”
I
asked
the
instructor.
“Ben,”
he
replied,
and
immediately
I
14
.
That
stranger
was
my
son!
The
instructors
called
for
an
ambulance.
15
,
after
a
brief
stay
in
hospital,
Ben
was
well
enough
to
be
allowed
to
16
and
later
the
family
met
up
for
dinner.
We
chatted
about
everything
and
then
Ben
17
to
me.
“I
just
want
to
say
thank
you,”
he
said.
“You
18
my
life!”
I
still
can't
believe
what
a
19
it
was.
I'm
just
so
glad
I
was
there
20
to
help
my
son.

四、语法填空
（每小题1分，满分10分）
阅读下面短文,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
gain
a
lot
of
rewarding
experience
from
some
social
activities.
Our
local
Community
Youth
Club
is
a
very
popular
organization
with
young
people
in
my
town.
I
have
been
a
member
for
four
years
now
and
I've
taken
part
in
a
lot
of
interesting
projects,
1
include
fun
activities
such
as
holiday
camps
and
discos.
We
have
organized
sports
competitions
and
we
have
even
made
a
video.
But
it
isn't
all
just
enjoyment.
We
have
also
started
doing
social
work
to
help
people
in
our
neighborhood.
We
2
(organize)
activities
for
small
children
during
the
holidays.
We
have
also
formed
a
special
support
group
to
help
young
people
stop
3
(smoke).
We
are
particularly
proud
of
the
most
recent
group
we
have
created.
It
organizes
regular
visits
4
the
local
old
people's
home.
My
class
spent
an
afternoon
at
a
home
and
everyone
found
the
visit
very
rewarding.
The
old
people
there
were
5
(talk)
and
they
told
us
their
personal
stories
6
(cheer)
.
During
our
visit,
the
home
was
filled
with
7
(laugh).
But
we
realized
that
life
wasn't
always
easy.
Some
of
them
were
in
poor
health
and
were
very
8
(happy).
Many
young
people
like
me
do
not
live
with
our
grandparents
and
we
have
little
contact
with
elderly
people.
As
a
result,
many
young
people
don't
know
9
they
are
like.
After
this
visit,
my
friends
and
I
decided
that
we
should
do
10
to
improve
the
quality
of
their
lives.

Today
is
the
happy
day
in
this
holiday.
Although
I
was
very
tired,
but
I
found
myself
in
these
busy
days.
Usual,
I
am
afraid
of
taking
a
bus.
The
awful
smell
of
the
bus
drives
me
mad,
make
me
feel
carsick.
But
today
I
did
feel
carsick.
I
could
defeat
carsickness
finally.
At
night
I
went
out
with
an
old
friend
I
ever
liked
him,
but
all
of
us
were
so
busy
with
examinations
at
high
school
that
we
hadn't
been
together.
I
was
such
surprised
when
I
received
his
call
that
I
could
hardly
believe
my
ears.
At
first,
I
think
we
would
never
meet
before
we
graduated.
Thank
him
for
giving
me
a
happy
day!
