Long long ago, when the great library of Alexandria burned, one book was saved. But it was
not a valuable book, so a poor man bought it for just a few coins. The book was not very interesting,
but between its pages there was 41 indeed. It was about the Touchstone（试金石）! The
touchstone was a small pebble(鹅卵石)that could 42 any common thing into real gold, The
writing explained that it was 43 among millions of other pebbles that looked almost the
same as it. But the 44 was this: The real stone would feel warm, while other common
pebbles were 45 . So the man sold all of his things, bought some simple tools: camped on
the beach, and began testing pebbles. He knew that if he picked up common pebbles and threw
them on the beach again, he might pick up the same pebble hundreds of times. So, when he felt one
that was cold, he threw it into the sea. He spent a whole day doing this, but 46 of them was
the touchstone. But he still went on 47 this way, Pick up a pebble. Cold-throw it into the
sea. Pick up another. Cold-throw it into the sea. He kept doing the same thing for years. One day,
however, about mid-afternoon, he picked up a pebble and it was warm. He threw it into the
9
sea
48 he realized what he had done. He had developed 49 a strong habit of throwing each
pebble into the sea that when the one he wanted came along, he still 50 . So it is with chance.
If we don't pay enough attention, it is easy to miss a chance when it is in hand and it's just as easy to
throw it away.

Be honest. That's all you have to do on Honesty Day. It would be great if we were all honest
every day of the year. It's good that there is a day to encourage honesty. M.Hirsh Goldberg started
Honesty Day. He chose the last day of April because the first day is April Fool's Day, which
celebrates lies. On Honesty Day, anyone may ask you any question and you should give a true and
honest answer.
M. Hirsh Goldberg wrote a book on telling lies. He said in his book that almost all people lie
about 200 times a day. In our daily life, a typical (典型的) life for a man is "I did not drink that
much" and for a woman is "Nothing is wrong. I'm fine." It is found that nurses are the most honest
people, while sales people and politicians (政客) are the biggest liars. Every Honesty Day, M. Hirsh
Goldberg hands out prizes to honest people.

"He could have lived on his good looks, but instead he chose to live on talent and hard work."
This is how Internet users hailed（称赞） Chinese swimmer Ning Zetao.
On Aug 6, the 22-year-old young man won l00-meter freestyle at the 2015 FINA Swimming
World Championships in Russia. He was the first Asian to ever achieve this. Overnight the
191-cm-tall, handsome young man became the whole country's hero. Ning didn't let the sudden
fame（名声） get to his head. He said he only saw "a very small change" in his life after winning.
"My life is full of changes and challenges," he said, "I welcome them and am never afraid of them."
The first big change in Ning's life came in 2009. At the time, he specialized（专攻） in
9
breaststroke（蛙泳） and was successful. But his knees got hurt and it troubled him a lot. When he
was 16, the knee pain got worse, and he had to stop swimming the breaststroke. Then he changed to
freestyle swimming. Ning didn't let the change bring him down. Instead, he took advantage of it
and became one of the best freestyle swimmers. Last year, he won four gold medals in freestyle
races at the Incheon Asian Games in South Korea.
What is the next change Ning would like to see in his life? He says he wants to improve his
English. "English will help me communicate with foreign coaches(教练) and compete in the world

Quiet classes, quite a few exams and long hours at school ... This might sound like the daily life
of many Chinese high school students. But a group of 50 Grade 9 students from Bohunt School in
Hampshire, UK, decided to try out Chinese schools for four weeks. This idea has been made into a
BBC documentary called Are Our Kids Tough Enough? Chinese School.
Five Chinese teachers came to a UK school to teach the British students in Chinese way, They
came from some excellent schools in big cities including Nanjing and Xi'an. One month later,
students in Chinese classes would have the same tests as other British students in math, science and
Mandarin to see who would test better.
The Chinese teachers came in with full confidence, but they quickly found discipline(纪律) was
their biggest challenge. "When I walked into the classroom, some students were chatting, some
students were eating, somebody was even putting make-up on her face. I had to control(控制)
myself, or I would have gone crazy," said one of the teachers Li Aiyun.
The British students also complained. Many of them found the classes boring. "In class, we just
repeat, repeat, repeat and copy a lot of notes from the board," one student said.
The students finally took the tests, and the results came out on Aug 18. The Chinese class did
9
better, Chinese teachers were happy, but they thought it was because those students are more
hard-working. They also realized their teaching way was "a bit too rigid(死板的)", "It's very hard
to say which education system(体系) is better. But I think we can learn from each other," said Li.
The British teachers also believe the results are very important. Neil Strowger, the headmaster
of Bohunt said: "We probably do need a longer day at school, but do we really want children to
work 15 to 16 hours a day?"
58. Are Our Kids Tough Enough? Chinese School is made by BBC.
A. a documentary B. a movie C. news D. a talk show
59. In China, high school students may at school.
A. have a lot of free talks in class B. have only a few exams
C. study for a long time D. have no notes to take in class
60. According to the passage, which of the following is NOT true?
A. Five Chinese teachers taught the British students in Chinese way.
B. The Chinese teachers found it hard to control the British students in class.
C. The British students thought the Chinese teaching way was too boring.
D. The British students in their own classes tested better than those in Chinese classes.
61. From this program, we know that .
A. Chinese education system is much better than Britain's
B. British students should come to study in Chinese schools
C. some British schools now want to their students to study more than 15 hours a day
D. we should learn from each other to improve our education system
D
More and more people believe that technologies are great for learning. Today, such teaching
tools as iPads are used in a lot of courses, including language, history and science.
Many teachers are supporters(支持者) of using iPads in language learning. They say that
students now have much more time for discussion in the classroom. Instead of spending class time
listening to texts or watching teaching videos, students can do this on their own and come to class
prepared for discussion.
The teachers also say that iPads allow students to learn at their own pace, Some students
might listen to a conversation only once and understand it, so they can save time for doing other
things. Other students, however, might need to listen to the same conversation again and again to
understand it.
The students who are using the new tool in some courses are also happy. They believe that
using iPads is a more enjoyable way to learn (such as listening to stories and watching movies), The
class has become much more interesting and creative.
There are other advantages(优点) for students. By using iPads, they can pay more attention to
the material and learn more. Teaching notes are stored(分类) in their iPads and are easy to find.
Some students spend more time studying now. "I can listen to my language material or watch
teaching videos on the bus, instead of having to wait until I get home," a student explained.
Many adults complain that technologies such as iPads are bad for students. They worry that
students might use iPads to download teaching notes and use them to cheat during exams. Some
believe that iPads may separate(分隔) students from each other.
However, technologies are already a part of most students' day-to-day lives. As for cheating,
teachers can ask students to hand in their iPads when they take exams. Education needs to make
changes with the times as technology is playing an important part. We should look forward to a
9
wonderful future when iPads and other technologies can add a lot to the classroom.
62. In the third paragraph, the underlined phrase at their own pace probably means .
A. according to their own timetable B. without their teachers' help
C. about whatever they like D. against their parents' hope
63. From the passage we can learn that .
A. students with iPads have less discussion in class
B. students get more fun from learning with iPads
C. iPads help students save time waiting for buses
D. iPads stop students from cheating in exams
64. The writer probably agrees that .
A. teachers can take control of students' learning
B. exam results depend a lot on new technology
C. technology in education has a bright future
D. note-taking is as helpful as video-watching
65. The best title for the passage is probably .

阅读下文并回答问题.
If you are not happy with China's high Internet fees(费用) and slow speed, you are not alone,
So is Premier Li Keqiang. On April 14, he said in a meeting that the government should speed up
the Internet and lower the fees.
"The first question people ask at a new place is 61s there WI-FI?' because Internet service fees
are too high," said Premier Li. According to a recent survey by CCTV, the average(平均的) cost of
1 GB mobile Internet data per month in China is 100 yuan, while it is only 60 yuan in the US and
40 yuan in Japan.
9
However, high prices don't necessarily mean good service. The average Internet speed in
China was 4.25 Mbps in late 2014. South Korea had the fastest average Internet speed-25.3 Mbps.
People can download a l GB movie within 6 minutes in South Korea, but in China it would take
half an hour.
To improve Internet services, the key is to build more fiber(光纤) networks. Through them we
can send text, pictures and videos globally in less than a second, which offer high speed Internet.
Besides, the lack(缺乏) of the market competition is another problem. Having more operators(运营
商) besides China Unicom and China Telecom may lower the prices.
71. Do the Internet services in China have low fees and high speed?
72. How much may you pay if you use l GB per month in the US?
73. In the late 2014, which country had the fastest average Internet speed?
74. What is the key to improve the Internet services?

VIII．短文填空。（每空2分，共16分）
根据下面短文内容，在短文的空格处填上一个恰当的词，使短文完整、通顺。
These days, more and more Chinese people just enjoy reading news and short novels 80
the phone. But I think we should read more books besides the textbooks. It can open my eyes and
81 my language skills. Of course, it can also help me to get good grades. Do you know how to
read more and learn more? Here are some tips for you.
◆ Clear your purpose (目的） for reading
Before you start reading, ask yourself why you are reading this book. Some people read books
for more 82 so that they can know the world better, and others may just read for fun.
Clearing about your reading purpose can not only help you choose the books you really need to read,
83 remind you why reading the book is important to you, so you will keep reading and complete
the book faster.
◆ Read only what you are 84 in
9
Your friends may tell you the books they love, but those books might not necessarily be the
ones you enjoy. When you choose the book to read, first think about 85 you really enjoy it
or not.
◆ Give up books that you don't enjoy
You may have chosen books that are right to your purpose. But while you are reading them,
there may still be some books that you don't enjoy reading. Whenever you realize that you aren't
enjoying the book you are reading, give 86 up. Remember reading shouldn't be a chore.
◆ Set a reading goal(目标)
It is interesting that I read the books borrowed from libraries faster than those I bought. The
reason is the books I bought don't have a due date! I don't need to 87 those books. Having
a reading goal helps you work out how much reading you need to do in a week or even a day.
Before you read each book, ask yourself what time you need to complete this book by.
