从A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
A
Mary had a problem that she got annoyed with everything easily. She felt bad about everything and always carried a negative thinking. She developed all these negative aspects suddenly.
One day she felt she was so miserable and requested help from her dad.
Her father comforted her and took her to the kitchen.
He asked Mary to take a potato, an egg and two spoonfuls of tea leaves. Mary was surprised, “Do you want me to cook?” Her father denied. He then put three containers on the stove and poured one cup of water in each container. Once the water started to boil, he dropped separately potato, egg, and tea leaves in each container.
Mary was totally annoyed and asked her father why to do those stupid things. He asked her to wait for a few more minutes with patience.
The impatient daughter managed to wait for around 15 minutes. The father removed the potato from the pot and placed in a plate and did the same with eggs. He poured the tea into a cup. Then he placed the two plates, one with the potato and the other with the egg,
and the cup of tea in front of Mary.
“what do you see?”
She said, “Potato, Egg and a cup of tea!”
“No, touch it and reply me again.” said the father.
Mary couldn’t find the correct answer.
Her father said, “The potato was so hard before boiled, but now they turned soft and smooth. Also, the egg was too delicate but after boiling it become too hard. Sip the tea, it is delicious!
Mary asked, “What does it mean, father? I don’t understand!”
“Each object responded differently to water. That is how you have to be. Each object was put under the same kind of circumstance, faced similar adversity, but reacted differently. The potato became weaker. The egg became harder and the tea leaves are unique. It changed the water itself, giving it unique flavor!it gave something new.”
Mary understood that we could create something new and unique even when we experienced adversity.
So, what are you? A potato or an egg or a tea leaf?

Winter is often a time when we switch our activities indoors and wait for spring. We miss out on the fresh air, beautiful scenery and healthy exercise that outdoor activities in Saskatchewan offer. If you are not the skiing or snowmobiling type, ice fishing is a great way to spend part of your winter indoors.
Murry Koob, a biologist with the Saskatchewan Ministry of Environment, notes that there are over 50,000 fish-bearing waters in this province. “We have a lot of opportunities for ice fishing here, especially when most lakes are covered with ice for almost half of the year.”
It is estimated that one third of those who fish during the summer also fish in the winter. Koob says that a minimum amount of equipment is required for ice fishing.” In reality, all you need is something to cut a hole in the ice and a line with a hook on it. Warm clothes are obviously needed, too.”
Ice fishing can start as soon as the ice is thick enough to support a person walking on it: about 10cm thick. When it reaches 30cm, it will support a truck. Koob warns that ice
thickness can vary greatly, so it should be tested as you cross it. He suggests that anyone fishing on the ice carry emergency equipment, such as a throw rope, in case you break through the ice. “you should always fish with a companion and let people know where you will be fishing.
Carrying a cellphone with you is also a good idea. As noted, the equipment for ice fishing an be simple and inexpensive----or it can be costly. “I’ve seen people fishing with a home-made chisel (凿子) and a spool of line. But you can also spend hundreds of dollars or more on underwater cameras and portable tent-like shelters or a wooden shack. It all depends on how much you want to spend,” said Koob.
Often, the hardest part about ice fishing is getting out on the lake and cutting a hole through the ice.
25. The underlined word “it” in paragraph 4 refer to ____________.
A. ice B. ice thickness C. rope D. Ice fishing.
26. If you like to go ice fishing, _____________.
A. you should have many pieces of equipment
B. you should stay on the ice for a long time
C. you should be dressed in better clothes
D. you should make sure of your safety
27. The throw rope suggested in the passage means that _____________.
A. more fish can be taken home with it
B. it can meet the need of emergency
C. a hole in the ice can be broken easily
D. It can be used to break through the ice.
28. Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?
A. Go fishing with a companion is necessary.
B. An underwater camera is also a good idea.
C. The ice reaching 30cm thick is the bottom line to fish.
D. You can take a tent-like shelter with you.

Teen star Xu Shilin made Chinese sports history on Tuesday when she officially moved on the top of the International Tennis Federation (ITF) world junior rankings for girls' aged 18-and-under at last week's Osaka Mayor's Cup in Japan.
"I am very proud to become the first Chinese player to earn the number one world junior ranking," said Xu, who has been Asia's top-ranked junior player during the past two years. "The 2014 season is not over yet, so I need to stay focused and continue to play like I did in Japan. Osaka was a really incredible week as I played my style of tennis, keeping the points short and always being aggressive."
Xu lives and trains in Shenzhen with her father and coach Xu Yang. Xu has three more tournaments (比赛) to finish the 2014 tennis season. Xu will attempt to defend her Asian titles in singles and doubles in Korea during November 10-16, and then finish the season during the first two weeks of December playing two world-class events – Eddie Herr and Orange Bowl -- in Florida, USA.
As a junior player, Xu was limited to playing 12 professional tournaments in 2014 but has still managed to climb to number 414 in the latest WTA world rankings, one of the
highest rankings for a junior player.
Returning to Florida will be familiar playing conditions for Xu, who lived in the US state with her family while training full-time at various tennis academies during ages 8 to 13, before returning to China in 2012. Remaining outside of the state-supported sports training system, Xu's father Xu Yang has been her full-time coach since putting a racquet (球拍) in her hand at age three.
29. Judging from the second paragraph, we know ________.
A. Xu Shilin must have been relaxed when playing in Osaka
B. Xu Shilin can have a complete relaxation after return from Osaka
C. Xu Shilin will be fully prepared for the coming competition
D. Xu Shilin has build her confidence after the competition in Osaka
30. Xu Shilin’s last world-class event this year will be held in ________.
A. Shenzhen B. Osaka C. Korea D. Florida
31. Returning to Florida will be familiar playing conditions for Xu Shilin, because________.
A. She was born and brought up there B. She started to receive full-time training there
C. She rose to fame in this condition D. She was familiar with the living conditions
32. What might be the best title for the passage?
A. China’s Xu Shilin becomes World’s No.1 junior tennis player.
B. The International Tennis Federation saw Xu Shilin’s growth.
C. China’s Xu Shilin and her coach.
D. China’s Xu Shilin, a great tennis player.

How do humans learn? They go to school, of course! School is for more than learning ABCs and 123s. Kids have been going to school for thousands of years, but what they learned depended on when and where they lived.
Sparta, Greece, 320BC
Sparta has only one kind of school, the Agoge. Sparta boys started school at about age seven. They learned many things: reading, writing, arithmetic, poetry, dance, music, and public speaking. They also got some tough training designed to make them strong, disciplined soldiers.
Florence, Italy, 1450AD
Florentines realized that if they taught good math skills to kids, the kids would grow up to be better at their jobs. In the 1400s, Florence had schools called Abbaco School, where boys learned finger reckoning, a kind of math sign language. They studied multiplication, money, weights and measures. After finishing Abbaco School at 12 or 13 years old, many students started working at banks or as merchants right away.
Paris, France, 1600AD
For many centuries, teenagers have been workers in training. This meant a young boy must go to live with a master who was very skilled at a certain job. The parents paid the master, and the student ate, slept, and worked at the master’s workshop. Most teenagers started at about 11 or 12 years of age. How long they lived and worked with a master depended on the trade they were learning, most of which lasted seven to eight years.
England, 1850AD
In 19th-century England, parents who could afford it sent their sons to private boarding
schools. Boarding school students learned little that would help them at work. Instead they learned Latin, Greek, ancient history, and geography. Parents believed that these studies would make their sons better people. Boys might study French, fencing, music, or dance, but no math and science. Students interested in them should pay extra for a lecturer who visited the school once every year or two.
33. Which school offered students the military training?
A. The Agoge. B. Abbaco Schools.
C. Master’s workshop. D. Private boarding schools.
34. Which of the following statements is wrong?
A. All of the four kinds of education system were open only to boys.
B. Many Florence kids began to work at banks at 12 or 13 years old.
C. Teenagers in Paris must work for the master to pay for their fees.
D. What kids learning in private boarding schools was useless for work.
35. Maths is paid special attention in __________.
A. Sparta, Greece, 320BC B. Florence, Italy, 1450AD
C. Paris, France, 1600AD D. England, 1850AD
第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10 分）
根据短文内容，从短文后的七个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。
There’s a lot to consider when planing your trip and even more if you are planning a trip for your family. Here are some things to consider for your next fishing trip.
36 While some people love trout (鲑鱼), others might be bass (鲈鱼) fishermen. Since bass are found in warm waters and trout in cold waters, someone might be disappointed if you did not consider the type of fish before picking a location.
37 Don’t worry though; there are plenty of places to go no matter which type of fish you are hunting for!
Some fish lovers like to catch fish after fish and size isn’t really that important. There’s always the hope that the next bite could be a bigger one. 38
While there are many places that offer an opportunity for both types of fishing, this could be discussed beforehand so that each member of the trip can be sure they are getting the type of fishing they enjoy.
Another thing to consider is the approach you will use to catch fish. Will you be wading into streams? Using nets? Deep sea fishing? 39 make sure your group agrees on the method of fishing and the destination you are thinking about.
40 the hard part here is getting everyone in the group to agree on how much to spend and where to put most of the money. One way to save money is to do your own cooking or have everyone in the group bring a frozen dish or food along and you’ll have free meals for several nights.
A. Each one is a different experience and many people have their preference.
B. Others are only interested in catching fish in the pond and will sit patiently all day waiting for them to give a bite.
C. As with anything else, your budget (预算) will largely impact what you get for your
fishing vacation.
D. Before catching fish you have to decide which species (物种)of fish you want to catch.
E. It is well known that fishing attracts a great number of tourists every year.
F. Deciding on what type of fish you want to catch narrows down your destinations.
G. If you want to catch a lot of fish you’d better choose a proper destination.

If I was sitting on a stool they would push 64 over. They used to call me names, 65 hurt me a lot.

I could do 67 (thing) but sit at home alone, under a tree or I went to bed and slept. I had one friend but she left, so I haven’t one anymore.
But everything changed when a team from the Global Campaign for Education and Sightsavers met me. They gave me a Braille kit. I was enjoyed, and my face lit up with 68 （excite). The kit meant I could learn at home, and I was 69 (tell) if I reached the level of Braille learning required, I could attend a special school without 70 (pay) for fees.

Dear students,
Last weekend, our class went for an interesting outing. All the way we enjoyed the beautiful scenery and fresh air. However, it’s not uncommon to see some improper behaviors. Some of us threw rubbish here and there, turning the public place into a large dustbin. Some carved words on
famous buildings or picked flowers casually. Others laughed and talked loudly in public without considering others.
A true eco-friendly travel is a journey which not only allows us to express our love for nature but also needs our responsibility. As we enjoy the beauty of nature we can’t damage it. Only when we improve our awareness of eco-friendly travel can our earth become more and more beautiful. After all, the earth is the only place for us to live.
So let’s take action from ourselves and from now on set a good example to others! Remember that even a small amount of effort makes a big difference!
Best wishes!
Yours
