三、阅读理解 (共20小题; 每小题2分, 满分40分)
A
Americans think that travel is good for you. Some even think it can help with one of the country’s worst problems—crime(犯罪). Young criminals often come from sad homes, with only one parent or no parents at all.
There are many criminals in prison. But prison doesn’t change them.
One man, Bob Burton, thought of a new idea. In the old days, young men had to live a difficult life on the road. They learned to be strong and brave, and to help their friends in time of danger. This helped them to grow into men. So Bob started “Vision Quest”. He takes young criminals on a long, long journey with horses and wagons(马车), 3,000miles through seven states. They are on the road for more than a year.
The young people on “Vision Quest” all have bad problems. Most of them have already spent time in prison. This is their last chance.
It’s hard work on the road. The day starts before the sun comes up. The boys and girls have to feed the horses. Some of them have never loved anyone before. But they can’t love their horses enough. They began to love their partners. That love can help them to live a new life.
Not all the young people on “Vision Quest” will leave crime behind them. But Bob is right. Travel can be good for you. Even today, Americans still say, “Go west, young man.”

A young girl is calling a neighbor a superhero because of what he did when she was trapped beneath a car. Nick Harris said he didn’t know where he found the strength, but somehow he managed to lift a car off the 6-year-old girl last week, earning himself the title of superman. “I just think it’s a Christmas miracle,” Harris said.
Harris said he has tried time and again to recreate(使再现) the surprising show of strength because instinct(本能) sent him running to the 6-year-old’s aid. “I just ran over there, saw the tire on her, and lifted the car up to get her out from underneath the car,” Harris said. “I don’t know how I did it. I’ve tried three or four times since then.”
Harris was dropping off his daughter at Eugene Field Elementary Friday morning when he saw a car back out of a driveway, pinning(压住) the girl under its tire. That girl turned out to be his daughter’s best friend.
“I was expecting her to have bad injuries,” Harris said. “I’ve had broken toes, because a car just backed over my foot. And here this whole car was on top of her. I wasn’t expecting it to turn out as wonderful as it did.” The first-grader was flown to Children’s Mercy Hospital in Kansas City by an air ambulance(救护车), but didn’t have to stay long.

For many years, people in American cities have depended on farmers in rural areas to grow fruits and vegetables. But now a new generation of farmers is planting crops in urban areas.
Sean Conroe is a college student. Amber Banks is a teacher. They were both engaged in (忙于……) farming and gardening. Sean Conroe and Amber Banks wanted to start a farm in the middle of Seattle, Washington. “There are a lot of neighborhoods that don’t have access to healthy and fresh produce. And if they do, it can be very expensive. So we see unused space as a great place to grow food that will make it more accessible to people.” Says Amber Banks.
Sean Conroe created a website to get volunteers and donations. Within a week, they were offered a plot of land between two houses. He says twenty volunteers worked for six weekends to turn the grassy land into a farm. They call their project Alleycat Acres. The Alleycats have harvested about ninety kilograms of produce so far. They have donated most of it to local food banks that feed hungry people in Seattle.
Bridget Barni is sitting in the dirt picking lettuce (生菜). She is one of eighty people who are volunteering at this urban farm. Like a lot of the volunteers, she does not have much gardening experience.
One of the goals of the urban farm is to show city people the joy of growing food. The Alleycats invite school groups to the farm to help out. And Amber Banks says they want the same people who get food donations to learn how to work the soil. Sean Conroe says the Alleycats are expanding to other empty areas of Seattle. So are a lot of other urban farming groups.
46. What is the text mainly about

D. They have divided most of it among the volunteers.

A. She is an expert with a lot of gardening experience.
B. She is one of the founders of the Alleycats.
C. She is a volunteer with little gardening experience.

An American teenager who fell through an icy pond last December says that a television show about survival (幸存) helped save his life, and now his story is headed to television as well.
Joe Clopton, 13, was on an ice-covered Waldon Pond in Shawnee with his brother when the ice gave way and he fell into the cold water. “I held myself up with my nails (指甲) dug in,” said Clopton. He says that a Discovery Channel program about surviving in the wild called “Man Vs Wild” saved his life, as he remembered survival tips for just such a situation.
Clopton says that he knew from watching the show that he had to take deep breaths to stay calm. He kept telling himself that it was going to be okay.
Clopton’s mother, Kristin Clark, says that Clopton’s brother ran home to get her, and when she got to the pond she began crying. “I saw just a little dot(圆点) and it was his head in the middle of the pond,” said Clark. A neighbor helped her call 911, and within minutes firefighters were on the pond. “When he got probably a foot away from Joe, the ice just caved in (坍塌) where Joe was and the guy just jumped in behind him, and he tied him with the rope and then they pulled him out,” said Clark.
Clopton’s story will be on the Discovery Channel on Friday night at 8 p.m. Clopton says that his near-death experience has taught him a lesson that everyone can benefit from. “Stay away from ponds,” said Clopton, “because anything can happen with the dangers of them. You can fall through anytime; it’s unpredictable.”
51. What Clopton mainly learnt from “Man Vs Wild” is .
A. how to catch fish B. how to call for help
C. how to keep calm D. how to keep warm
52. Who took Clopton out of the pond
A. His brother. B. His mother. C. A neighbor. D. Firemen.
53. The underlined part “it’s unpredictable” in the last paragraph probably means that “ ”.
A. you can’t tell what will happen B. you won’t forget the experience
C. you can’t believe what you see D. you don’t need to be worried
54. What message did Clopton want to send after he survived
A. Don’t play outside in winter. B. Listen to others’ warning.
C. Don’t get close to the pond. D. Watch good TV programs.
55. What can we learn from the text
A. Clopton’s story will appear in “Man Vs Wild” on Saturday.

C. Clopton’s mother encouraged him to watch “Man Vs Wild”.

四、书面表达 (共两节, 满分45分)
第一节 阅读表达(第56题2分，第57、58、59题每题3分，第60题4分，满分15 分)
阅读下面的短文并回答问题(请注意问题后的词数要求)。
Children can spend hours a day looking at computer screens and other digital devices (数字化设备). Some eye care professionals say all that screen time has led to an increase in what they call computer vision syndrome (电脑视力综合症).
Nathan Bonilla-Warford, an expert, says he has seen an increase in problems in children. “I see a lot more children who are coming into the office because their parents have noticed that they have headaches or red or watery eyes.”
Dr. Bonilla-Warford says part of the problem is that children may be more likely than adults to ignore early warning signs. Even if their eyes start to feel uncomfortable or they start to get a headache, they’re less likely to tell their parents, because they don’t want to have the game or the computer or whatever taken away.
He says another part of the problem is that people blink (眨眼) less often when __________. The average person who uses a computer or an electronic device blinks about a third as much as we normally do in everyday life. And so that can result in the front part of the eye drying and not staying humid like normal.
Eye doctors offer suggestions like following what is known as the 20/20/20 rule. Every twenty minutes, look away twenty feet or more for at least twenty seconds from whatever device you’re using. It is very helpful.
Other suggestions include putting more distance between you and the device and using good lighting. Of course, another way to avoid eye tiredness is to spend less time looking at screens. Many experts say children should spend no more than two hours a day using digital devices — with no screen time for children under two.

One possible version:
“Sports World” has always been my favorite TV program. I can’t wait to watch the program at 9:30 every night. It has become a part of my teenage life.
“Sports World” contains a lot of information — from the international sports events to the local sports events. Many young people depend on the program for their sports news. It’s the only program I have found that has year-round coverage of different latest sports events and stories. It does give sports fans a chance to have a good understanding of top sports events within 30 minutes.
In my opinion, “Sports World” is a wonderful TV program. It brings me to the wide world of sports and enriches my high school life.

And if they do, it can be very expensive. So we see unused space as a great place to grow food that will make it more accessible to people.” Says Amber Banks.
Sean Conroe created a website to get volunteers and donations. Within a week, they were offered a plot of land between two houses. He says twenty volunteers worked for six weekends to turn the grassy land into a farm. They call their project Alleycat Acres. The Alleycats have harvested about ninety kilograms of produce so far. They have donated most of it to local food banks that feed hungry people in Seattle.
Bridget Barni is sitting in the dirt picking lettuce (生菜). She is one of eighty people who are volunteering at this urban farm. Like a lot of the volunteers, she does not have much gardening experience.
One of the goals of the urban farm is to show city people the joy of growing food. The Alleycats invite school groups to the farm to help out. And Amber Banks says they want the same people who get food donations to learn how to work the soil. Sean Conroe says the Alleycats are expanding to other empty areas of Seattle. So are a lot of other urban farming groups.

An American teenager who fell through an icy pond last December says that a television show about survival (幸存) helped save his life, and now his story is headed to television as well.
Joe Clopton, 13, was on an ice-covered Waldon Pond in Shawnee with his brother when the ice gave way and he fell into the cold water. “I held myself up with my nails (指甲) dug in,” said Clopton. He says that a Discovery Channel program about surviving in the wild called “Man Vs Wild” saved his life, as he remembered survival tips for just such a situation.
Clopton says that he knew from watching the show that he had to take deep breaths to stay calm. He kept telling himself that it was going to be okay.
Clopton’s mother, Kristin Clark, says that Clopton’s brother ran home to get her, and when she got to the pond she began crying. “I saw just a little dot(圆点) and it was his head in the middle of the pond,” said Clark. A neighbor helped her call 911, and within minutes firefighters were on the pond. “When he got probably a foot away from Joe, the ice just caved in (坍塌) where Joe was and the guy just jumped in behind him, and he tied him with the rope and then they pulled him out,” said Clark.
Clopton’s story will be on the Discovery Channel on Friday night at 8 p.m. Clopton says that his near-death experience has taught him a lesson that everyone can benefit from. “Stay away from ponds,” said Clopton, “because anything can happen with the dangers of them. You can fall through anytime; it’s unpredictable.”

A. how to catch fish B. how to call for help
C. how to keep calm D. how to keep warm
52. Who took Clopton out of the pond
A. His brother. B. His mother. C. A neighbor. D. Firemen.

C. you can’t believe what you see D. you don’t need to be worried
54. What message did Clopton want to send after he survived
A. Don’t play outside in winter. B. Listen to others’ warning.
C. Don’t get close to the pond. D. Watch good TV programs.
55. What can we learn from the text

四、书面表达 (共两节, 满分45分)
第一节 阅读表达(第56题2分，第57、58、59题每题3分，第60题4分，满分15 分)
阅读下面的短文并回答问题(请注意问题后的词数要求)。
Children can spend hours a day looking at computer screens and other digital devices (数字化设备). Some eye care professionals say all that screen time has led to an increase in what they call computer vision syndrome (电脑视力综合症).
Nathan Bonilla-Warford, an expert, says he has seen an increase in problems in children. “I see a lot more children who are coming into the office because their parents have noticed that they have headaches or red or watery eyes.”
Dr. Bonilla-Warford says part of the problem is that children may be more likely than adults to ignore early warning signs. Even if their eyes start to feel uncomfortable or they start to get a headache, they’re less likely to tell their parents, because they don’t want to have the game or the computer or whatever taken away.
He says another part of the problem is that people blink (眨眼) less often when __________. The average person who uses a computer or an electronic device blinks about a third as much as we normally do in everyday life. And so that can result in the front part of the eye drying and not staying humid like normal.
Eye doctors offer suggestions like following what is known as the 20/20/20 rule. Every twenty minutes, look away twenty feet or more for at least twenty seconds from whatever device you’re using. It is very helpful.
Other suggestions include putting more distance between you and the device and using good lighting. Of course, another way to avoid eye tiredness is to spend less time looking at screens. Many experts say children should spend no more than two hours a day using digital devices — with no screen time for children under two.

One possible version:
“Sports World” has always been my favorite TV program. I can’t wait to watch the program at 9:30 every night. It has become a part of my teenage life.
“Sports World” contains a lot of information — from the international sports events to the local sports events. Many young people depend on the program for their sports news. It’s the only program I have found that has year-round coverage of different latest sports events and stories. It does give sports fans a chance to have a good understanding of top sports events within 30 minutes.
In my opinion, “Sports World” is a wonderful TV program. It brings me to the wide world of sports and enriches my high school life.
