With a sense of bad feeling he wrote: “The ocean has a personality of its own. The place can be such a peaceful environment to be in, yet it can be frightfully violent. I’ve experienced both.” Fearing he wouldn’t make it home, he placed the note — dated June 11, 1998 — in a wine bottle and sealed the bottle. “I included our geographical coordinates (地理坐标) so if anything happened to me, they’d know our last place when I threw the bottle into the ocean,” says Peter. He also included some money with his message, asking whoever found it to use the money to post the letter to his family in the tiny Victorian township of Wunghnu. Seventeen days later he reached his destination, having survived the dangerous seas, but he assumed his message in a bottle had not — until it was found on shore, 11 years later! Recently, American woman Katherine Ginn and a friend came across the bottle on a deserted beach in the Bahamas. “Alongside it they’d found a life jacket and, assuming the worst, smashed the bottle open and spent 24 hours drying it out so they could read my story and write to my family like I requested,” says Peter, 44. “I couldn’t believe it — that after all these years my bottle 3 had turned up and with its contents still undamaged.” Katherine posted him his letter, money and some broken glass from his bottle, placed in a tiny box as a special souvenir. These special items now share pride of place among photos of Peter’s Atlantic voyage. “I can’t express what this old letter means to me,” Peter says. “It gives me a sense of hope and belief. It’s something special to share with my children as they grow up.” 21. Peter had the idea of a message bottle because ________. A. He missed his family very much. B. He regretted running a risk on the ocean. C. He hoped to share his experience with others. D. He thought he might lose his life on the voyage. 22. As for the survival of the message bottle, Peter ______. A. felt very certain about it B. did much research on it C. mentioned it in a letter D. thought it never reached land 23. Which statement is TRUE about the message bottle? A. It contained Peter’s special souvenir. B. Certain pieces of glass could be found in it. C. There was water in it when Katherine found it. D. It was marked with a map of geographical coordinates. B The popularity of farmers’ markets along with concerns over food safety is making the number of school leavers taking agriculture courses increase rapidly. Large numbers of 16-to-18-year-olds are taking qualifications in subjects such as agriculture and food despite lack of background in farming. Jeanette Dawson, head of Bishop Burton College, said women were also taking up courses at an increasing rate. She said it was related to a series of food scandals (丑闻), such as the discovery of horse-meat in frozen meals sold in the major supermarkets. But the movement was also promoted by an increased awareness of the importance of local food and produce. The subjects are also increasingly popular at university-level. Mrs. Dawson said there were a lot of young people who weren’t from farming backgrounds. But there had been a growth in the number of them accessing agriculture programs with a view to a career in the industry. She said agriculture was an “applied science, with the great outdoors as its laboratory”. “We have benefited from the interest that the public has in food,” she said. “I never underestimate the ability of teenagers to pick up on it. The more it is in the media, the more it interests young people. Whenever I go into my local pub, it has on the blackboard where the meat is from. Everyone is interested in buying local food and knowing where their food is from.” The comments were made as Bishop Burton prepares to expand with a £13 million project whose new site — due to open in September 2016 — will be the college’s second in the county, in addition to one at nearby Riseholme. The college is currently in a battle with Lincoln University over ownership of the Riseholme campus, which is used for courses such as agriculture and animal management. And the university plans to build houses on the site. 24. What is making large numbers of students take agriculture courses? A. Colleges are offering more agriculture courses. B. Students don’t need to have a farming background 4 C. People are increasingly concerned about food security. D. Farmers come to regard agriculture as an applied science. 25. What can we learn from the passage? A. Bishop Burton College is going to build a new campus. B. People never cared about where the food was from before. C. The number of women taking agriculture courses is decreasing. D. Students need a farming background in taking agriculture courses. 26. What does the writer mainly discuss in the passage? A. Job opportunity. B. Food safety measures. C. Expansion of university. D. Popularity of agriculture courses. C Many good parents feel that they have to punish their children sometimes. But other parents find that they can successfully manage without ever having to punish. A lot depends on how the parents were brought up. If they were punished occasionally for good reason, they naturally expect to have to punish in similar situations. Actually, there are a number of poorly-behaved children. The parents of some of them punish a lot, and the parents of others never do. So we can’t say that punishment always works or that lack of it always works. It all depends on the nature of the parents’ discipline (管教) in general. Before we go further with the subject of punishment, we ought to realize that it is never the main element in discipline. It’s only a reminder that the parents feel strongly about what they say. We have all seen children who have been slapped and beaten on their bottoms, and yet remained ill-behaved. The main source of good discipline is growing up in a loving family — being loved and learning to love in return. Habitual criminals are people who in childhood were never loved enough to make much difference to them. Many of them were also abused（虐待） or were witnesses to violence. Another vital element is children’s great desire to be as much like their parents as possible. They work particularly hard at being polite, civilized and responsible. They pretend very seriously to take care of their dolls, keep house and go out to work, just as they see their parents do. In automobile terms, the child supplies the power, but the parents have to do the steering. For most children, most of the time, a disapproving look or word from a parent is enough to direct the child back on the right track. Children’s motives are good, but they don’t have the experience to stay on the road. The parents have to keep saying, “We hold hands when we cross the street,” “It’s time to go to bed so you’ll grow up to be big and strong,” and on and on. 27. Parents’ attitude towards punishment is decided by _______. A. their role of punishment B. their power over their children C. their ill-treatment during childhood D. their experiences of being brought up 28. The author probably believes that ________. A. children from a loving family will behave well B. children will grow into loving others naturally C. punishment is a must when it is necessary D. punishment helps parents behave children properly 5 29. The underlined word “steering” in the last paragraph most probably means ________. A. learning B. driving C. working D. punishing 30. What might be the best title for the passage? A. Punishment and Discipline. B. Is Punishment Necessary? C. Parents’ Role Model. D. Like Father, Like Son. 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，并在答题纸上将该选 项标号涂黑。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Google is the world’s largest search engine. But do you know that Google is also one of the world’s largest energy consuming company in the world? It has one of the largest utility(公用程序) bills in the world and here’s why. 31 Computers are consuming more and more of the electricity that is used in the world today. Google is now finding ways to support its growth by relying on renewable energy. 32 Last week, Google announced that it has finalized contacts to buy 842 megawatts of wind and solar energy from plants in US, Chile and Sweden — nearly doubling its total clean energy capacity. 33 It is enough to power all the homes in the Denver metro area. By the way, it is also just enough to keep 15% of all Google data centers going! A data center is like a giant warehouse with rows and rows of neatly stacked computers housed in “racks”. These computers are not like the ones in your home or school — each is a single “motherboard” with computer chips and storage. 34 Since most data centers are used to house server computers that run websites like Facebook and Google, they are also located near “Internet Backbones” — which means their Internet connection is a million times faster than your home. Google’s data centers are big power-suckers. Until last year, 37% of Google’s energy was from renewable sources. 35 A. Google is popular with people all over the world. B. 842 megawatt is a lot of power. C. They aim to take it to 100% by 2025. D. After all, technology is supposed to be a “clean industry”. E. However, they have no screens or DVD drives or speakers. F. Google is by far the largest owner of computers in the world. G. As the strongest search engine, Google is used by people all over the world. 第 II 卷(非选择题 共 55 分) 第三部分 英语知识运用（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） 阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的四个选项（A、B、C 和 D）中，选出可以填入空 白处的最佳选项，并在答题纸上将该选项标号涂黑。 When I was a young boy growing up in New York I enjoyed ice skating during the winter months.

Edward rose, washed and dressed himself in a hurry, because he wanted to be the first to wish a happy New Year. He looked in every room and shouted the words of welcome. He ran into the street to repeat them to those he might meet. The festive atmosphere swept up the neighborhood. 8 When he came back, his father gave him two bright new silver dollars. His face lit up as he took them. He had wished for a long time to buy some pretty books that he had seen at the bookstore. It was freezing and dry outside and the wind blew strongly. However, Edward left the house with a light heart, intending to buy the books. As he ran down the street, he saw a poor German family, the father, mother and three children trembling with cold. “I wish you a happy New Year,” said Edward, as he was cheerfully passing on. The man shook his head, saying nothing. “I wish you a happy New Year,” repeated Edward, feeling a little puzzled. The man shook his head again, for he couldn’t understand or speak the language. “You do not belong to this country, don’t you?” asked Edward. Still the man said nothing, but this time he pointed to his mouth and to his children, as if to say, “These little ones have had nothing to eat for a long time.” Edward quickly understood that these people were in trouble. The family were in great need of help. At that moment, he took out his dollars, looked at them over and over, thinking for a short while and finally gave one to the man and the other to his wife. How their eyes sparkled with gratitude! They said something in their language, which meant, “We thank you a thousand times and will remember you in our prayers.” Without a word, Edward made his way home, delighted. Paragraph 1: When Edward came home, his father asked him what books he had bought._______________ _______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: “My dear boy, I saw you give the money to the poor German family,” said the father.________ _______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________
