A
By the time I was in second grade, Dad had become a professor. We moved to a small university town in Illinois and found ourselves living next to a lot of young students. Almost every morning, as Dede would walk me to my school, we’d walk through the students’ party wasteland covered with things I was too young to know about and Dede was too old to care about.
One day, a group of guys started shouting “Ali Baba” at us and laughing. I turned red and begged Dede to cross the street with me. But she refused. Instead, she laughed in her usual way, yelled “Ali Baba” and waved at them as we walked by. They just watched us in shocked silence and never said anything to us again.
Dede set an example for me that day and forever after, because she taught me to be always proud of who I was.
Her stories were like a movie that was rich and imaginative and she never sugarcoated anything. While Dede preferred the Queen’s English, her vocabulary was just as alive. The landscapes she created in her stories were so vibrant(充满活力的) and filled with a wild cast of characters.
Almost every day, I would interrupt Dede, whatever she was busy with, and beg her to tell me a story. She would silently stare at me through the large glasses that took up half of her face. Whether it was only 10 minutes or several hours, I would barely speak as Dede took me to places I never wanted to come back from.
My mother died while I was a child. Without the care and guidance of Dede in every aspect of life, I couldn’t have lived happily. Dede taught me so much, not only in daily life, but also in her attitude to dealing with unpleasant things that I don’t want to confront.
21. How did the author feel when the boys shouted “Ali Baba” at them?
A. Shocked. B. Ashamed. C. Afraid. D. Excited.
22. Why was the author always asking Dede to tell stories?
A. Her stories were lively and interesting.
B. The author had no friends and felt lonely.
C. The author liked Dede to speak in the Queen’s English.
D. She could make a dull landscape seem beautiful.
23. From the text, we can infer that Dede was the author’s_________.
A. mother B. neighbour C. aunt D. housekeeper
24. We can learn from the text that the author__________.
A. appreciated Dede very much
B. didn’t like her father
C. was very selfish
D. thought of Dede as her teacher
B
Every product has its own history. Headphones, especially, have evolved over time. Headphones have existed since 1919, but they were mainly used as amplifiers(扩声器) for telephones and radios back then.
Through technological advancement, headphones experienced a change in their look and feel. In the late 1930s, Beyerdynamic officially invented headphones and put them into market. However, Milwaukee-based jazz musician, John C. Koss, invented the first stereo
headphones in the year 1958. The first headphones were big, heavy and limited to long-playing record music listening. They were used by pilots and at radio stations.
However, the invention of the Walkman led to many changes in headphones. At the time, there was a growing industry ready to provide accessories(附件) for personal stereos, like headphones. These accessories became favorites for both professional musicians and music lovers. The latest generation electronics, like cellphones, TVs, computers, home theaters, CD players, and more, are all compatible(可兼容的) with headphones.
Traditional, full-sized headphones continue to be used in some recording studios even now. However, modern headphones have a more stylish appearance. The in-ear headphones are one of today’s more popular types. Lighter than traditional headphones, they have a vertical in-ear design that makes them much easier to carry. Another advantage of in-ear headphones is that they come in several sizes, so they are sure to fit perfectly in everyone’s ears. They are built with advanced technologies to provide a comfortable and pleasurable listening experience.
Each headphone has its own pros and cons, but most give a reasonably good performance. Whatever kind of headphones you choose is a matter of personal preference.
25. Before the 1930s, headphones were mainly used as___________.
A. stereo equipment only for airplane pilots
B. music recording equipment for professional musicians
C. loudspeakers for telephones and radios
D. accessories for personal stereos
26. All the following are features of the first stereo headphones EXCEPT__________.
A. they had a handy, user-friendly appearance
B. they were big, heavy and not easy to use
C. they were only used for long-playing record music listening
D. they were designed by jazz musician John C. Koss
27. After first being used as accessories for personal stereos, headphones____________.
A. were favored especially by professional musicians
B. can now be used together with other electronics
C. became smaller and lighter for use in some recording studios
D. are now much cheaper so everyone can afford them
28. Which of the following can best describe modern headphones?
A. Big and comfortable.
B. Complicated and expensive.
C. Full-sized but user-friendly
D. Lightweight and advanced.
C.
In the United States, Julia Roberts, Will Ferrell, Elton John and over 65 stars are coming together to have fun, raise money and change lives on The Red Nose Day Special.
The special will feature Julia Roberts’ recent trip to Phoenix to visit projects that take care of children who are facing serious health issues without the means to afford basic medical treatment. Jack Black, who went to Uganda last year to shed light on the issue of children living in poor conditions, returned to give a heartwarming report about Felix, a young boy he met there who had been living on the streets for three years. He will reveal what life is like for Felix today after being helped by a program that aims to change the lives of homeless kids.

In its first year in America, more than US $23 million was raised for the Red Nose Day Fund, with the money now at work in all 50 states across America and 15 countries internationally through programs to keep children and young people safe, healthy and educated.
The money raised by Red Nose Day USA 2016 will help support projects in some of the neediest communities in the U.S. and some of the poorest communities in the world. People from all walks of life are encouraged to get involved, have fun and raise money by buying red noses sold only at Walgreens stores nationwide, organizing fundraising events and watching and donating during the television special.

Hostility(敌意)has often been linked with being bad for our hearts ---- but could your skin color be the reason why you die earlier?
White people are more likely to suffer from heart disease caused by anger than black people, a new study claims. Research from the University of Michigan found white adults who behaved in an aggressive manner were 40 percent more likely to develop deadly cardiovascular (心血管的) problems.
Dr Shervin Assari, from the University of Michigan, said: “This suggests white people are more fragile to the bad effects of hostility and anger on the cardiovascular system. On the contrary, black people may have develop a type of resilience (适应力) to a wide range of psychosocial risk factors including, but not limited to, hostility and anger.”
“This new finding is in line with our previous findings that education, self-rated health, depression and sense of control over time are more important risk factors for white people than black people. So, whatever black people’s resilience is, it is consistent and systematic and works across the broad.”
Anger levels were measured among nearly 1,600 participants between 2001 and 2011 to measure their hostility and anger. They noted whether the person was more likely to turn their anger inwards or to express it outwardly through verbal or physical attack. Deaths due to cardiovascular disease were then tracked for a 10-year period as they found the result was the same in both genders(性别).
And for those experiencing high levels of anxiety, the risk of suffering from a heart attack in the hours after losing one’s temper is nine and a half times greater, scientists discovered.
Dr Thomas Buckley, from Australia, said: “While the absolute risk of anger causing a heart attack is low, our data shows that the danger is real.”
32. According to Dr Shervin Assari, we know that___________.
A. black people can control their hostility and anger, while white people can’t
B. the bad effects of hostility are the same for white people and black people
C. white people are more likely to suffer from heart disease than black people
D. black people can deal with all psychosocial risk factors easily
33. Compared with black people, which of the following are important risk factors for white people?
a. Education. b. Self-rated health.
c. Depression. d. Aggression.
A. a c d B. a b c C. a b d D. b c d
34. According to the research, who are more likely to suffer from a heart attack?
A. People who express their anger outwardly.
B. People who turn their anger inwards.
C. People who get angry with themselves easily.
D. People who experience high levels of anxiety.
35. Where is the text most probably taken from?
A. A news report. B. A social magazine. C. A lesson plan. D. An advertisement.

五、书面表达(25分)
Dear Editor,
I am a high school student who will graduate next year. Since I was in Senior Three, I have found that some of the students in our class study harder than before. They study late into the night, eating snacks and drinking Coca-Cola, which is bad for their health. In the morning, due to staying up late, some students have to go to school hurriedly without breakfast, which surely does harm to their health.
In my opinion, though we are under the heavy pressure of study, we should try to eat properly and get as much rest as possible. Only in this way can we keep fit and study well.
