Yet, I was determined to go ahead.I remember back to my 7th year in school. In my first P.E. class, the teacher required us to run laps and hit a softball. I didn’t do either well. He later informed me that I was “not athletic”. The idea that I was “not athletic” stuck with me for years. When I started running in my 30s, I realized running was a battle against myself, not about competition or whether or not I was athletic. It was all about the battle against my own body and mind. A test of wills! The night before my marathon, I dreamt that I couldn’t even find the finish line. I woke up sweating and nervous, but ready to prove something to myself. Shortly after crossing the start line, my shoe laces became untied. So I stopped to readjust. Not the start I wanted! At mile 3, I passed a sign: “GO FOR IT, RUNNERS!” By mile 17, I became out of breath and the once injured ankle hurt severely. Despite the pain, I stayed the course walking a bit and then running again. By mile 21, I was starving! As I approached mile 23, I could see my wife waving a sign. She is my biggest fan. She never minded the alarm clock sounding at 4 a.m. or questioned my expenses on running. I was one of the final runners to finish. But I finished! And I got a medal. Actually, I got the same medal as the one that the guy who came in first place had. Determined to be myself, move forward, free of shame and worldly labels(世俗标签), I can now call myself a “marathon winner”. 21. The author referred to his experience in the 7th year to ________. A. treasure his precious old days B. prove his inability in sports then C. defend himself from prejudice D. convey his gratitude to the teacher 22. What happened to the author eventually during his first marathon? A. He succeeded for a strong will. B. He quit running halfway. C. He was awarded the first prize. D. He walked to the end. 23. What does the story mainly tell us? A. One is never too old to learn. B. Failure is the mother of success. C. Family support is the fountain of success. D. Success can be acquired with a great effort of will. B Children are becoming addicted to social media for their sense of self-worth, a major study warned. It found many youngsters measure their status(形象) by public approval they get online, often through “likes”. Some change their conduct in real life to improve their image online. The research into youngsters aged from 8 to 16 was carried out by Children's Commissioner(专员) Anne Longfield. She said social media firms were exposing children to major psychological risks, with some youngsters starting secondary school ill-equipped to deal with the huge pressure they faced online. Youngsters felt their friendships could be at risk, not responding to social media posts quickly and around the clock. Children aged 8 to 10 were "starting to feel happy" when others liked their posts. However, those in the 10 to 12 age group were "concerned with how many people like their posts", indicating a “need” for social recognition that gets stronger the older they become. Children tended to compare themselves to others online. "Then there is this push to connect—if offline, will you miss something, will you miss out, will you show you don't care about those you are following, all come together in a huge way at once." Miss Longfield said, "For children it’s very difficult to handle." The Commissioner found children as young as 8 were using social media platforms largely for fun. However, the research—involving eight groups of 32 children aged 8 to 12—suggested that as they grew, they became increasingly anxious online. When they started secondary school—at age 11—children were already far more conscious of their image online and felt more pressure to ensure popularity of their posts, the research found. Meanwhile, they still did not know how to dispose of mean-spirited jokes, or the possible sense of inability if compared with celebrities(名人) or more brilliant friends online. They also faced pressure to respond to messages at all hours of the day—especially at secondary school when more youngsters have mobile phones. The Commissioner advocated schools and parents do more to prepare children for the emotional minefield(雷区) . "It's vital that new age-appropriate relationship and sex education lessons help equip children to deal with growing demands of social media.” Social media companies must "take more responsibility" and monitor websites better or adjust their websites to the needs of youngsters. 24. What may account for Children’s addiction to social media? A. To get their status recognized. B. To reduce psychological risks. C. To change their conduct in real life. D. To deal with huge emotional pressure. 25. How was the research conducted? A. It covered children of all ages. B. It sought assistance help from parents. C. It was sponsored by social media companies. D. It divided children into groups and compared them. 26. During the process of addiction, children have a tendency to ________. A. switch off from social media platforms B. become less conscious of their image online C. pick up anxiety and pressure steadily while becoming older D. develop skills to dispose of mean-spirited jokes and the sense of loss 27. How should the problem solved according to Anne Longfield ? A. Children should be banned from visiting the web. B. Schools must keep track of children's use of social media.C. It demands cooperation among families, schools and companies. D. Social media companies need to create more apps to satisfy youngsters. C By the end of the century, if not sooner, oceans will be bluer and greener thanks to a warming climate, according to a new study. At the heart of the phenomenon lie tiny marine microorganisms(海洋微生物)called phytoplankton. Owing to the way light reflects off the organisms, these phytoplankton create colorful patterns on the ocean surface. Ocean color varies from green to blue, depending on the type and concentration of phytoplankton. Climate change will fuel the growth of phytoplankton in some areas, while reducing it in other spots, resulting in changes in the ocean’s appearance. Living on the ocean surface, Phytoplankton absorb carbon dioxide into the ocean while giving off oxygen. When they die, they bury carbon in the deep ocean, and help to adjust the global climate. But phytoplankton are allergic to the ocean’s warming trend. Warming changes essential characteristics of the ocean and can affect phytoplankton growth. Stephanie Dutkiewicz, a scientist in MIT’s Center for Global Change Science, built a climate model that projects changes to the oceans throughout the century. In a world that warms up by 3℃, it found that multiple changes to the ocean color would occur. The model projects that currently blue areas with little phytoplankton could become even bluer. But in some waters, a warming will make conditions suitable for phytoplankton, and these areas will turn greener. “Not only are the quantities of phytoplankton in the ocean changing,” she said, “but the type of phytoplankton is changing.” And why does that matter? Phytoplankton are the base of the food web. “If certain kinds begin to disappear from the ocean,” Dutkiewicz said, “it will change the type of fish that will be able to survive.” Those kinds of changes could affect the food chain. Whatever color changes the ocean may experience in the coming decades will probably be too gradual and unnoticeable, but they could mean significant changes. “It’ll be a while before we can statistically show that the changes are happening because of climate change,” Dutkiewicz said, “but the change in the color of the ocean will be one of the early warning signals that we really have transformed our planet.” 28. What is the major cause that directly results in changes in the ocean’s color? A. The temperature of sea water. B. The type and concentration of phytoplankton. C. The oxygen given off by phytoplankton. D. The amount of carbon dioxide in the area. 29. What can be learned from the passage? A. Phytoplankton have been used to control global climate. B. Phytoplankton are of little significance in Dutkiewicz’s research. C. Phytoplankton are not sensitive to the warming trend in the ocean. D. A warming trend helps phytoplankton grow and oceans may appear greener. 30. What is the main purpose of the passage?A. To describe the importance of phytoplankton. B. To explain the effects of climate change on oceans. C. To introduce a new approach to phytoplankton study. D. To assess the consequences of changes in ocean color. 第二节(共 5 小题;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。 How Arts Contribute to Our Economy When it comes to arts, most people tend to imagine the end product, beautiful paintings, wonderful pieces of music, or award-winning performances in the theater. But arts groups bring broader value to communities. 31 . The arts create jobs that help develop the economy. Any given performance takes a tour bus full of artists, technical experts, managers, musicians, or writers to create an appealing piece of art. 32 . Another group of folks is needed to help market the event. Digital media experts, photographers, booking agents and promoters( 推 广 者 ) are hired to sell tickets and promote the event. 33 . Here is an example. In 2005, when the Bishop Arts Theatre was donated to a town in Dallas, the location was considered a poor area. After putting more than $1 million in reconstructing the building, they began producing a full season of theater performances, jazz concerts, and year-round arts education programs. Soon, waves of jazz lovers flooded in to enjoy an evening. Then, came a series of work force outside the arts industry, including accountants, marketers, hotel managers, printers, and other kinds of workers. 34 . Definitely, arts are efficient economic drivers when supported. It’s wrong to have prejudice against majors in art and assume arts groups cannot make a profit. But to stay in business, arts groups must produce returns. 35 . But those who truly understand the economic effect and can work to change the patterns can create a wide range of career possibilities. A. Here are some tips on how to achieve profits in the arts. B. Here are some ways in which the arts benefit our economy. C. A successful arts neighborhood creates a chain effect throughout a community. D. These people earn a living income for their professional knowledge and skills. E. No doubt the theater has contributed to the area’s development and economic growth. F. To be major in the arts, you need to have an understanding of the brilliant potential of your choice. G. If you are a student considering taking up the arts, chances are you have been ill-advised to have a plan B. 第三部分 语言运用(共两节,满分 45 分)第一节 完形填空(共 20 小题;每小题 1.5 分,满分 30 分) 阅读下列短文,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。 The 65-year-old Steve Goodwin, suffering from early Alzheimer’s, was losing his memory.

Some of her organs, bones and muscles were out of shape. No one expected her to survive long. She did make it but with her strange body figure, everyone could recognize her, even from a distance. In her hometown, a yearly outdoor performance was held in the school auditorium(礼堂). It had been performed for so many years and actually had become one of the most important events of the Christmas season for many of the town's people. Many people tried out each year for it, but so many were turned away. It can only include the most excellent people in the field. Emily had a beautiful singing voice. Last year she went to Mrs. Owens- her music teacher to ask to join in the performance. Without letting her sing, Mrs. Owens took a glance at Amy's body and said, "Child, you are just not suitable. Everyone would stare at you and that would make you uncomfortable. It would make them uncomfortable, too.” Without singing a single note, Emily was sent back through the door of the choral room. Hurt and upset, she decided never to try out again. But Mrs. Owens then retired. This year, there came a new music teacher, Mr. Butler. He heard about Emily and suggested that she have a try. Emily didn't want to be rejected again, so she hesitated about it. As Emily struggled, the door was pushed open and Mr. Butler called, “Emily, you're next." Kind of nervous as she was, Emily did as Mr. Butler told her to. Mr. Butler sat by the piano to keep Emily company. When Emily finished her testing performance, she thanked Mr. Butler and knew the result would be posted on the door of the choral room the next day. Emily couldn't sleep that night. She tossed and turned in bed one thousand times. She was suffering from the feelings that she didn't fit and the great need to be accepted. By the next morning, her stomach was even in pain due to stress. 注意:1. 所续写短文的词数应为 150 左右; 2. 至少使用 5 个短文中标有下划线的关键词语; 3. 续写部分分为两段,每段的开头语已为你写好; 4. 续写完成后,请用下划线标出你所使用的关键词语。 Paragraph 1: Emily hurried to the choral room and anxiously glanced at the list on the door.

Yours, Li Hua 读后续写: Emily hurried to the school and nervously glanced at the list on the door of the choral room. The fear of being rejected came to strike again. “Jeff Green, Rose Black…” she murmured as her eyes moved upward. “Wow!” Emily abruptly covered her wide-opened mouth, feeling as if her heart would jump out. There, at the top of the list was posted her name. The leading singer! However, whispers around her pulled her back to earth. Just then, she felt a pat on the shoulder. It was Mr. Butler. “We selected you for our faith in your abilities and voice.” Inspired, Emily practiced even harder for the day of performance. Finally the day for the performance came. Emily’s eyes danced with excitement as she stepped on to the stage. Standing still, she heard noises among the crowd. Obviously not cheers! Emily felt nervous again and even her legs began trembling. At that moment, her eyes parked on Mr. Butler at the corner. He nodded and exchanged a determined glance with her, which timely put her heart back in place. With the music rising, Emily began her singing. Her sweet voice poured and the audience fell into an abrupt silence. When she finished, the auditorium erupted into a sea of cheers. Emily White in tears, with so many birth problems in her body, became the shiniest star!
