I have learned something about myself since I moved from Long Island to Florida three years ago. Even though I own a home in Port St. Lucie just minutes from the ocean, I feel an uncontrollable urge（冲动） to return to Long Island even as others
make their way south. Instead of enjoying Florida’s mild winters, I willingly put up with the severe weather on Long Island, the place I called home for 65 years.
I guess I am like a snowbird, a migratory bird（候鸟）, which has lost its sense of timing and direction, my wings flapping against season.
So what makes me fly against the tide of snowbirds? The answer has a lot to do with my reluctance to give up the things that define（界定） who I am. Once I hear that the temperature on Long Island has dipped into the range of 40 to 50 degrees, I begin to long for the sight and crackling sound of a wood fire. I also long for the bright display of colors—first in the fall trees, and then in the lights around homes and at Rockefeller Center. Floridians decorate, too, but can’t create the special feel of a New England winter.
I suppose the biggest reason why I return is to celebrate the holidays with people I haven’t seen in months. What could be better than sitting with family and friends for a Thanksgiving turkey dinner, or watching neighbors’ children excitedly open gifts on Christmas? Even the first snowfall seems special. I especially enjoy seeing a bright red bird settling on a snow-covered branch. (My wife and I spend winters at a retirement community in Ridge, and I’m grateful that I don’t have to shovel铲雪.)
While these simple pleasures are not unique to Long Island, they are some of the reasons why I come back. Who says you can’t go home?
24. What’s the difference between Florida and Long Island?
A.Winters in Florida are milder.
B. Weather in Florida is severer.
C. Florida is nearer to the ocean.
D. The snowbirds in Florida are rarer.
25. What does the underlined word “reluctance” in Paragraph 3 mean?
A. Coincidence. B. Expectation. C.Motivation. D. Unwillingness.
26. Which of the following words can best describe the author?
A. Anxious and painful.
B. Homesick and easy-going.
C. Hard-working and serious.
D. Imaginative and outspoken.
27. What’s the author’s purpose in writing the text?
A. To describe his dream to be a free bird.
B. To express his feeling of missing his hometown.
C. To praise the beauty and warmth of his hometown.
D. To explain the reasons for moving from his hometown.
C
Lockers(储物柜)have been the symbol of American high school for decades. But walk down any hallway of the new Germantown High School in Madison County, Mississippi, and you won’t spot a single locker.
New technology such as e-books, interactive(互动的)assignments and Web-based learning is making lockers in American high school a thing of the past.
Officials from schools have listed several benefits: less noise, less delay and an increased sense of safety. “It’s all to create an environment that’s student-friendly”, said Ronnie McGehee, chief official of the Madison County School District.
Getting rid of lockers can also cut hundreds of thousands in construction costs. Madison County saved $200,000 by not including lockers in the new high school, McGehee said.
It is also believed that removing lockers could help prevent school violence. “Lockers give kids a place to hide things”, said Mike Nelson, founder of a safety- training group. Nelson believes that some school shootings and other incidents could have been prevented if there had been no lockers.
However, Andrew Booth, a 10th-grader at Gemantown High, said there are some disadvantages of not having a locker. “It can make your book bag really heavy”, he said. The 16-year-old has four textbooks “plus notebooks and a binder(活页夹)” to carry to school each day.
He said some teachers have shelves at the back of the classroom on which students can leave their bags. Others provide an extra set of textbooks in the classroom, so
students don’t have to carry books from home.
New York architect Peter Lippman said schools will have to address such concerns and find ways to give students a “sense of space”. “If you are carrying books around, it does limit your flexibility in the classrooms,” he said.
Lippman said he would like to see schools starting to use the new free space to provide less structured learning opportunities for students, including gathering areas and learning centers. “If you think about a school with just rows of lockers---there’s nowhere for learning opportunities in that”, he said.
28. What does the text mainly talk about?
A. The reasons for removing lockers in US high schools.
B. The trend of getting rid of lockers in US high schools.
C. The influence of new technology on some US high schools.
D. The history and development of lockers in US high schools.
29. What is the disadvantage of getting rid of lockers?
A. Saving money. B. Making less noise.
C. Making book bags heavy. D. Preventing school violence.
30. What is Andrew Booth’s attitude to removing lockers?
A. Ignorant. B. Approving. C. Favorable. D. Complaining.
31. What does Peter Lippman suggest schools that have removed lockers should do?
A. Give students as much freedom as possible in the classroom.
B. Provide students with an extra set of textbooks in the classroom.
C. Give more learning opportunities to students in the new free space.
D. Put shelves at the back of the classroom for students to leave their bags.
D
When Vivek Sodera, 30, awoke with a swollen knee after a night out with friends, he knew he should probably see a doctor. Problem was, “I couldn’t move from my bed, and I didn’t want to pay for taxis to and from the hospital,” says Sodera.
So he grasped his mobile phone hurriedly and opened Doctor on Demand, a new app that allows users to video-chat with doctors to get medical help in real time. He typed in symptoms, got in touch with a nearby specialist and sent him a few photos
of his knee. Within minutes, the doctor informed Sodera that he likely dislocated his knee and would need an MRI—which he scheduled for the following week.
Nowadays, telemedicine is becoming increasingly mainstream, thanks to apps like Doctor on Demand, which is developed by Dr. Phil, and Hoakh Tap, which attracts more than one million users.
For patients, telemedicine apps are a cheap, easy alternative (选择) to non-emergency consultations. Asking text-based questions on HealthTap and AskMD is free, and a 15-minute appointment via Doctor on Demand costs $40. For doctors, the apps are a tool to build a public profile (档案), attract new patients and make a little extra cash during their downtime. And for hospitals, they are a simple and effective means, which is rare for existing patients. As Murray Aitken, executive director of the health care consultancy IMS Institute, puts it, “We are going to see a major shift in how medicine is practiced and where.”
But there are concerns. Although telemedicine apps can be useful for diagnosing (诊断) routine illnesses, they’re not meant to totally replace in-person doctor’s exams especially for potentially serious diseases like chest pain. It’s also not ideal to get prescriptions (处方) from a doctor who doesn’t have your electronic medical-record history on hand.
The key, says Aitken, is striking a balance—and using telemedicine to replace unnecessary visits. “If there is a way to keep healthy patients out of the doctor’s office through telemedicine,” he says, “that’s a good thing.”
32. Why does the author mention the example of Vivek Sodera?
A. To introduce the topic. B. To prove the danger of a night out.
C. To advertise a new app. D. To show the usage of telemedicine apps.
33. What can we learn about the telemedicine apps?
A. They help hospitals to attract more patients.
B. They are tools to publicize medical information.
C. They save severe disease sufferers time and money.
D. They are suitable for routine disease consultations.
34. What is Murray Aitken’s attitude towards telemedicine apps?
A. Doubtful. B. Opposed. C. Supportive. D. Concerned.
35. What’s the best title for the passage?
A. Vivck Sodera used a new telemedicine app.
B. The doctor will video-chat with you now.
C. New mobile phones can examine patients’ knees.
D. Telemedicine apps replaced in-person doctor exams.

How to interview for your dream job
Here are some tips for getting your foot in the door and then maximizing your chance of getting that dream job.
Do some homework first.
Google the company and find out as much as you can about their mission（使命）. 36 Try to relate the position you’re interviewing for to these overall goals.
37
Look the interviewer in the eye when you meet him/her. This shows confidence, indicating smartly to the interviewer that you feel as though you belong in the room. Do not just touch hands with people when shaking with them. This will doom you to many. Instead, grab their hand and shake with some firmness, but not with a death grip.
Focus on the point.
It’s not about you, it’s about them. Whenever you interview, keep in mind that it’s about them, not about you. 38 Try to relate your assets（资产）to the overall mission of the company. The stronger connection you can make, the better.
Close positively.
Whenever an interviewer leaves you, shake their hand and thank them for their time. Look them firmly in the eye again. 39
Write a thank-you email.
40 The next time you’re at your computer, fire off an email to each person you interviewed with thanking them for their time. Mention that you’re excited by
the prospect of working for the organization and how you think it’s a great fit.
A. Greet appropriately.
B. Mind your language.
C. Read a recent annual report of the company.
D. This leaves them with a positive impression of you.
E. It's not what the company can do for you, but what you can do for the company.
F. Send an email to express your appreciation as soon as you can after the interview.
G. However, it is important in the short term as it is a way to continue a positive interaction.

第二节（共10小题；每小题1.5分，满分15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。
In the West, when you go to a restaurant, you choose all that you want to eat; you do not choose a dish to share with others. Your food 61 (bring) to you, for you alone. As a guest, you may have the problem that the food you like is expensive. So you dare not order it, for it feels greedy. But when you choose something 62 (little) expensive, your host will order what you really want.
But “ordering badly” is a bigger problem. Something can sound nice on the menu, but when it comes, you find that the 63 (combine) of flavors (味道)is wrong. But it is 64 (you), and you have to do your best to eat it. I have a friend in London 65 orders badly. Never has she really 66 (enjoy) her meal.
In China, the question is not “What shall I have?” 67 “What shall we have?” Food is ordered to share with others, not just 68 oneself. My friends here usually take my likes and dislikes into consideration when 69 (order), and I do the same for them. But if something I don’t like is ordered, it’s not a problem because there are all the other 70 (dish) that I can enjoy.

参考范文
Dear Editor,
I am Li Hua, a high school student. I am writing to express my thanks and admiration for my teachers’ and schoolmates’ actions of goodwill, and appeal to more people to learn from them.
A few days ago, the weather freezing cold, a snowstorm swept our city. The thick snow and the icy ground made it hard for us to get around. To ensure our safety, some of my teachers and schoolmates offered to shovel ice, sweep snow at the courtyard and lay non-slip mats along the corridors. Even though they were tired out, they were happy to be able to give a hand to people around.
Their gesture of kindness has received a lot of praise and recognition. They do set a good example to us . I think we should model ourselves on them and volunteer to do those beneficial to others.
