She also put on 25 pounds. The restaurants are all located around the lake and are very easy to find. If you would like to read what people say, or leave your own comment, please visit our website (www.eatout.com). Also, online you can see the full-length of reviews for the following restaurants. Dave's on-the- Lake(Italian) A stone's throw from the lake, this newly opened Italian restaurant has all any restaurants could offer, from delicious meatballs to tempting garlic bread and prize-winning wine. Espudo Cornello’s(Mexican) This redecorated and well designed Mexican restaurant is my personal favorite. The fresh fish are caught daily from the lake and the pancakes are made with the finest ingredients. The chef has lived and worked for restaurants in the Eldora region in Mexico for 20 years before opening his -own restaurant here. Seating is outdoor, where you can contemplate the night views and breathe the fresh air coming from the lake as you dine. This is something that is not to be found anywhere else close to the lake. The best of salsa music plays while you eat. Bull Dog's (English Fish and Chips) This restaurant is one of the successful chains now operating in the country. Several types of fish are available for you as well as a good selection of salads for healthier choice. Hand cut chips made from local potatoes make it even more 'appealing. A main course comes with 2 free drinks. It's definitely good value for money and very tasty too. 51. What can we learn about the restaurant guide editor? A. She saw a lot of Mexican people. B. She tasted a lot of food for work. C. She did not really enjoy eating out.' D. She was late in publishing her article. 52. According to Paragraph 2, Dave's-on-the-lake . A. is far away from the lake B. has been the most successful chain C. is a well furnished Mexican restaurant D. can offer prize-winning wine to customers 53. What is special about Espado Cornelio's restaurant? A. I t has outdoor seating. B. Its food is delicious. C. The fish arc caught weekly. D. It Is close to the big buildings. 54. What can we know about Bull Dog's? A. It provides fish mainly for customers on a diet. B. It offers free drinks for dinner. C. It has a wide selection of meat. D. It is not good value for money. 55. The underlined word "contemplate" In Paragraph 3 is closest in meaning to . A. remember B. recognize C. enjoy D. draw B Let me explain a bit by telling you where the challenge came from. I have many things in common with my dad, like music taste and sense of humour, but sadly reading isn't one of them. I can happily spend a whole day curled up with a book but my dad can't read a book for longer than about 5 minutes. He reads emails, websites and documents for work, but not books. I think that sitting down to read for just 15 minutes a day is a good, way to relax. Giving yourself a goal or a challenge is a good way to change a habit or achieve something, so why not try to create a new habit of reading? I know lots of people would rather relax on their computers or in front of the TV. Everyone is different and has their own interests, but I think there are lots of benefits from reading, which screen-based activities (games, films, TV) don't have. One thing I personally love about reading, is being transported to another world. I often forget the time or thing that are going on around me! Reading is a great way to switch off before you go to bed, so you can truly relax. I know you can be transported to a different world in a film or a TV show, but I think books do it better. While watching a film, I often talk to my flatmates, send texts, or paint my nails. A book, on the other hand commands your full attention. Reading gives you the chance to get to know hundreds of new people! It also teaches you to see things from other people's point of view, and understand other people's decisions or opinions, With a book, you can hear everything a character is thinking or feeling——you really can be inside someone else's head! So give it a go! Take 15 minutes when you're waking up, going to bed, eating lunch, or having a coffee. If you read a lot, why not try 15 minutes of an English book, or pass the challenge on to someone else? Good luck, and happy reading. 56. What can we learn about the author's father from Paragraph I? A. He is kind-hearted. B. He lacks humour. C. He has a gift for singing. D. He doesn't like reading. 57. Why is the author fond of reading? A. Because she bears too much pressure. B.

The gap between my father and me C Trees often grow to appear strong, which might make it hard to believe that they're easily harmed on the Inside. But that is the case, according to a worldwide survey of more than 200 types of trees. Researchers studied the inner part of the trees and found that most don't have a built-in safety net 吐 hat would allow them to survive a serious drought. "I think this is a really big deal." ecologist David Breshears said. He says it and other studies "keep pointing to: ‘Whoa, our forests are really fragile."' Studies like this one are particularly worrying about climate change. The average temperature of the planet is rising. Scientists predict that warming will cause changes in rainfall patterns. That could lead to longer, more severe droughts in many regions around the world. As a result, the trees that now grow there could face a serious threat. When drought strikes, trees begin to fail in the xylem(木质部), special tissue made of many tiny, strawlike tubes. This tissue makes it possible for a tree to draw water from the ground and deliver it to the leaves. During times of drought, tiny air bubbles can develop in the tubes. Too many bubbles block the flow of water——and lead to certain death for the tree. Brendan Choat, a plant physiologist, worked on the new study along with 23 other researchers. All together the scientists studied 226 tree species in 81 different sites around the world. Choat said that this study is the first to look at all forest types and find so many species living on the edge. Of the 226 different types of trees Choat and his colleagues studied, 70 percent lived close to the point where a serious drought would stop water transport. Trees that flower, such as maples and oaks, were more vulnerable than conifers ( 针 叶 树 ), which, including pines and firs have evergreen, needlelike leaves. Plant ecologist Bettina Engelbrecht said that in the interest of conservation, scientists can't just concentrate on a few species. "We have to worry about them all." 61. The first paragraph implies that trees . A. can live through a drought. B. have the ability to protect themselves C. are worth a great deal of money D. are weak as a matter of fact 62. What does the underlined word "it" in Paragraph 4 refer to? A. The drought. B. The tube. C. The water D. The xylem. 63. What does Choat think of the study? A One-sided. B. Fruitless. C. Time-consuming. D. Meaningful. 64. According to Bettina, what should scientists do? A. Care about the trees that flower. B. Pay attention to all species of trees. C. Find out why pines and firs are strong. D. Study the trees living on the edge of death. 65. What can be the best title of the text? A. Serious drought is a threat to most trees B. Trees face death due to lack of protection C. Global warming reduces the number of trees D. Trees reflect the change of the global climate D Like a tired marriage, the relationship between libraries and publishers has long been dull. E-books, however, are causing heartache. Libraries know they need digital wares, but many publishers are too cautious about piracy(盗版)and lost sales to co-operate. Among the big six, only Random House and Harper Collins license e-books with most libraries. Publishers are wise to be nervous. Owners of E-readers are exactly the customers they need: book-lovers with money. If these people switch to borrowing c-books instead of buying them, what then? Electronic borrowing is awfully convenient. Unlike printed hooks, which must be checked out and returned to a physical library miles from where you live, book files can be downloaded at home. The tiles disappear from the device when they are due. E-lending is not simple, however. There are lots of different and often incompatible(不兼容 的 )e-book formats, devices and licenses. Most libraries use a company called OverDrive, which secures rights from publishers and provides E-books and audio files in every format. Yet publishers and libraries are worried by OverDrive's global market dominance, as the company can control fees and conditions. Publishers were annoyed when OverDrive cooperated with Amazon, the world's biggest online bookseller, last year. Owners of Amazon's Kindle E-reader who want to borrow E-books from libraries are now redirected to Amazon's website, where they must use their Amazon accounts to secure a loan. According to Pew, an opinion researcher, library users are perfect for market for Amazon. Late last year Amazon Introduced its Kindle Owners' Lending Library, which lets its best customers borrow free one of thousands of popular books each month. Library supporters argue that book borrowers are also book buyers and that libraries are vital spaces for readers to discover new work. Many were cheered by a recent Pew survey, which found that more than half of Americans with library-cards say they prefer to buy their e-books. 66. It can be inferred from paragraph I that . A. libraries and publishers face the same problem of e-books' piracy B. libraries are eager to keep strong relationship with publishers C. most publishers are hesitant to cooperate with libraries D. several big publishers have sold E-books to libraries 67. Why are publishers worried that people will switch to electronic borrowing? A. Book sales may drop sharply because of convenient electronic borrowing. B. There are lots of different and incompatible E-book formats available. C. There is no time limit for the book files downloaded on the device. D. E-books must be checked out and returned to libraries regularly. 68. What do we learn about Over Drive? A. It has the privilege to offer readers various brands of E-readers. B. It distributes E-books and audio files to publishers.C. Its market control threatens publishers and libraries. D. It devotes itself to improving conditions of e-book market. 69. We can learn from the passage that . A. E-books can be lent at libraries as many times as you like B. OverDrive distributes E-books and audio files to publishers C. over half of Americans are borrowing E-books from libraries D. Amazon is adopting measures to win more customers 70. What is the best title for the text? A. The Hopeful Future of Publishing Business B. Libraries and E-books C. The Dull Relationship between Libraries and Publishers D. The Close Cooperation between OverDrive and Amazon 第 II 卷(非选择题 共 35 分) 第四部分：写作(共两节，满分 35 分) 第一节：阅读表达(共 5 小题；每小题 2 分，满分 10 分) 阅读下面短文，并按照题目要求用英语回答问题。 "I wish that in one instant I could tell you of my safe arrival, but we are 3,000 miles apart and must wait for long weeks to hear from each other. "Samuel Morse was 20 when he wrote this sentence in a letter to his mother in 1811. He was in London studying art. She was at the home in Charlestown, Mass, USA, where he had been born. Perhaps it was at the moment of writing the letter that young Morse first had the desire to bridge space with flying words. This desire was later to give the world the electric telegraph. Samuel returned in 1815 to work on history painting much admired in Europe. Morse completed an oil painting The House of Representatives, expecting that this would bring him fame. But there was hardly any demand in the United Stated for history painting, and he unwillingly started to support himself by painting portraits. He was often close to poverty during his career as an artist. During a voyage from Europe to America in 1832, Morse met Thomas Jackson, a scientist who had recently attended lectures on electricity in Paris. Conversations with Jackson made the artist believe that an electrical current could be used for communication. During the rest of the voyage he worked excitedly on drawings for his plan. After his arrival at home, he abandoned his artistic career to give his full attention to the project. Morse had an fertile mind but little knowledge of electricity. He did years of work and study to perfect his invention. In 1837 he applied for a patent on The American Electromagnetic Telegraph. Finally, in 1843 the United States Congress provided 30,000 to build a line from Washington to Baltimore. In May 1844 the first message was flashed over this wire. Newspapers, railroads, and businesses quickly found use for the telegraph, which for the first time created a global community. 71 .What did Morse find after returning from Europe in 1815?

Look, I study on this table. I put my toys in this box. W: Is your new toy car inside the box too?M: Of course not. It is on my bed. I play with it before bedtime. (Text 2) M: Excuse me. What time docs the flight get into London? W: Well. it's 2:00 now so I will arrive in an hour. Would you like some drink, sir? M: Some coffee, thanks. (Text 3) M: You look sad, L aura. What's wrong? W: 1 hate being a secretary making and answering phone calls. And I’m tired of preparing reports for the sales manager. I's boring. I really like to do some social work. (Text4) W: Wow! Your bike looks much better than I remember. Is it new? M: No. It’s my old bike. My dad fixed it after he heard about our plan to go cycling. (Text 5) M: You look a bit troubled! W: Yes. I'm supposed to move out of my dorm, but my friend just called to say that he had something important to do and that he couldn't make it here. M: That's not a problem. I can lend you a hand. (Text 6) M: What's wrong with you? W: I'm finding studying at oxford quite hard. M: You're telling me there's so much work. W: It's not the work——but everything’s so different In China, generally we have large classes, but we don't have classes after that. And mostly, our teachers tell us what we should do, so I'm not used to asking questions or discussing things. M: You have to memorize a lot, don't you? W: Yes, but I'm good at that. M: You're lucky. There's so much to remember studying law! W: Yes, well, we've been trained to do that. But we don' t have so much training in thinking, such as giving your opinion and then proving it. M: Yes, I suppose that's what our teachers have always encouraged us to do. (Text 7) W: So what should people do to make their visit to New York safe and pleasant.? M: Don't try to do too much in a short time. That's very important. You should start planning before you get here. You ought to decide beforehand which places you most want to visit. W: Are there any good tours available? M: Yes. There are many. Some companies offer bus tours that stop at all the tourist attractions. You can buy a bus pass. And you should visit our website to find out about the latest tours. W: I see. And is New York a safe city for visitors? M: It's safer than many cities in the world. But you should still be careful. For example, don't go out on your own at night. And never carry much money on you. Oh, and don't be afraid to ask strangers questions. New Yorkers are actually friendly. They are happy to give directions. (Text 8) W：I'm Lee Minwoo from South Korea. When I was little I was very interested in English. I learned English at school. There was a good teacher who was not a native English speaker. He taught French and German, but he really spoke English quite well. It was funny because I was the only student in his class —— it was really a private lesson. I had an excellent course book. I still keep a copy of it. The front cover was red with a lovely picture, and it was very modern. Learning English was quite easy for me because the teacher was so good and he helped a lot. Also, I’m quite good at learning languages. It was really enjoyable to have classes. I loved the sound of the words. I felt really proud when my spelling improved day by day and I could read a short story. In middle school, English was still my favorite subject. I even stayed in America for one year as an exchange student. I learned a lot there, not only English but different cultures.
