Victor's hobby was collecting stamps. He had stamps from other countries, like England，Canada and China. On his birthday，can you guess what people gave him? That's right—stamps.
Victor's favourite stamps came from France. He had almost every stamp from 1954 to 2009. He only needed one. That was a 1974 special edition. It was very hard to find.
He looked for it everywhere. He asked his friends and relatives to help him. But nobody could find the stamp. It made Victor very sad.
“Don't worry. Never give up，” his father said to him.“If you have enough patience，you'll find one one day. ”
“I hope so，” Victor said.
Victor also liked writing. He had a penfriend in France. They wrote to each other every month. Victor's penfriend, Phillip, usually used new stamps to send letters. Sometimes, his mother gave him some stamps. Once Phillip's mother gave him a big，green stamp. It looked old. When Victor received the letter, he was very surprised.He looked carefully at the stamp. It was the 1974 special edition stamp. Victor was so

阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中，选出最佳选项。
A
Tears are nature's way of making us feel more comfortable. When our eyes is made uncomfortable by some small pieces of pollution, or when we are cutting onions，or when we are exhausted and “redeyes” from overwork and late hours, tears form in our eyes to clean and refresh them.
Tears are also a sign of strong emotion (情感). We cry when we are sad and we cry when we are happy.
And tears seem to be uniquely human. We know that animals also experience emotion fear, pleasure, loneliness, but they do not shed (流) tears.
Biologically speaking, tears are actually drops of saline fluid, which is a little bit salty, produced by a gland (腺) in the body. Because salt is an important component, tears may actually provide the most important evidence that the human animal is the end product of a long evolutionary process(进化过程) that began in the sea.
And it is clear that, in addition to the emotional benefits, the shedding of tears has a specific biological function as well. Through tears, we can eliminate from our body certain chemicals which build up in response to stress and create a chemical imbalance in the body. Crying actually makes us feel better by correcting that imbalance and making us feel good again. And thus the emotional and the biological functions of tears merge (合并) into one and make us even more “human” than we would otherwise be.
21. According to the article, which of the following makes humans different from other animals?
A. The feeling of loneliness.
B. The state of feeling good.
C. The ability to shed tears.
D. The feeling of fear.
答案与解析：C 细节理解题。根据文章第三段And tears seem to be uniquely human. We know that animals also experience emotion fear, pleasure, loneliness, but they do not shed tears.可知。
22．The underlined word “eliminate” probably means ________.
A. add B. produce
C. replace D. remove
答案与解析：D 词义猜测题。根据后面的which build up in response to stress and create a chemical imbalance in the body.以及下文内容可知。
23．Which of the following is the best title of the passage?
A. Tears are a sign of strong emotion
B. Tears are always making us feel more comfortable
C. Tears make humans special
D. Tears have certain biological functions
答案与解析：B 主旨大意题。综合全文内容并结合第一段中Tears are nature's way of

making use feel more comfortable.可知。

We already know the fastest, least expensive way to slow down climate change: use less energy. With a little effort, and not much money, most of us could reduce our energy diets by 25 percent or more—doing the Earth a favor while also helping our wallets.
Not long ago, my wife, PJ, and I tried a new diet—not to lose a little weight but to answer an annoying question about climate change. Scientists have reported recently that the world is heating up even faster than predicted only a few years ago, and that the consequences (后果) could be severe if we don't keep reducing emission(排放) of carbon dioxide (CO2) and other greenhouse gases that are trapping heat in our atmosphere.
We decided to try an experiment. For one month we recorded our personal emission of CO2. We wanted to see how much we could cut back, so we went on a strict diet. The average US household produces about 150 pounds of CO2 a day by doing common things like turning on air conditioning or driving cars. That's more than twice the European average and almost five times the global average, mostly because Americans drive more and have bigger houses. But how much should we try to reduce?
For an answer, I checked with Tim Flannery, author of The Weather Makers: How Man Is Changing the Climate and What It Means for Life on Earth. In his book, he had challenged readers to make deep cuts in personal emission to keep the world from reaching extremely important tipping_points，such as the melting (融化) of the ice sheets in Greenland or West Antarctica. To stay below that point, we need to reduce CO2 emission by 80 percent，” he said.
Good advice, I thought. I'd opened our bedroom windows to let in the wind. We'd gotten so used to keeping our airconditioning going around the clock. I'd almost forgotten the windows even opened. We should not let this happen again. It's time for us to change our habits if necessary.
24．Why did the author and his wife try a new diet?
A. To take special kinds of food.
B. To respond to climate change.
C. To lose weight.
D. To improve their health.
答案与解析：B 细节理解题。根据文章第二段中的“not to lose a little weight but to answer an annoying question about climate change”可知，作者和妻子这么做的目的是回答一个令人烦恼的气候变化问题。
25．The underlined words “tipping points” most probably refer to “________”．
A. freezing points B. burning points
C. melting points D. boiling points
答案与解析：C 词义猜测题。在他的书中，他要读者大幅减少个人温室气体排放量，以免世界来到“熔点”，下面给出的例子“such as the melting of the ice sheets in Greenland or West Antarctica”，可以判断出C项正确。
26．According to the passage, Tim Flannery ________.
A．made deep cuts in his personal emission of CO2
B. wrote a book about the climate changes
C. succeeded in reducing CO2 emission by 80 percent
D. was an author popular among readers
答案与解析：B 细节理解题。根据文章第四段可知，Tim Flannery的书The Weather Makers: How man Is Changing the Climate and What It Means for Life on Earth是有关the climate changes的，故B项正确。A、C两项都是Tim
- 13 -
Flannery的书中的观点。而非他自己做到的事情；D项文中没有提及。
27．Which of the following would be the best title for this passage?
A. Saving Energy Starts at Home
B. Changing Our Habits Begins at Work
C. Changing Climate Sounds Reasonable
D. Reducing Emission of CO2 Proves Difficult
答案与解析：A 主旨大意题。文章作者通过讲述自己一家人切实有效地减少温室气体排放量的行动，向我们证明了“节约能源从家庭做起，从我做起”，故A项正确。
C
If there is something that appears most frequently on Chinese dining tables, it is doufu—beancurd. Beancurd looks like soft cakes and it's made from dried soybeans. Beancurd used to be considered a favourite of the poor because of its low cost. Beans have high yields (产量) every year with their short growing period and suitability for various (各种各样) soil both dry and wet.
Historical records show beancurd was invented by Liu An, Prince of Huainan and uncle of Emperor Wu of Han Dynasty (179 BC—122 BC). He had a dream of finding the pill for longevity (长寿). He traveled all over the country and found soybeans, which looked much the same as gold in terms of colour. He collected soybeans, put them in the water and crushed them into pulp (浆). It got solidified and became known as doufu. Although it's not able to keep longevity, it's really good for one's health with high protein and low fat.
With a long history, beancurd is rooted deep in Chinese culture. People eat more meat and fish than beancurd. But they are encouraged to have beancurd every once in a while for it's really good for health. Most Chinese people still keep beancurd as one of their favourite dishes.
28．Why was beancurd considered to be liked by the poor?
A. It's easy to make. B. It's easy to cook.
C. It's cheap. D. It's good for health.

A. Only in wet soil. B. In dry soil.
C. In soft soil. D. In any soil.
答案与解析：D 细节理解题。根据文章第一段Beans have high yields every year with their short growing period and suitability for various soil both dry and wet.可知。
30．Why did Liu An travel all over the country?
A. He had a dream.
B. He wanted to find something that could make people live longer.
C. He wanted to invent beancurd.
D．He wanted to find gold.
答案与解析：B 细节理解题。根据文章第二段He had a dream of finding the pill for longevity.可知。

Superfast doubledecker (双层) trains will be taking passengers from London to six big cities in the UK by 2033. The first phase (阶段) linking London to the West
- 13 -
Midlands with a connection to HS1 is expected to open in 2026, and the second phase to Manchester and Leeds in 2032.
The government set out a plan for the highspeed rail network in 2012. When the project is finished, it will take less time to get to London from major cities like Birmingham, Manchester and Leeds. Traveling at a speed of up to 250 mph, passengers will be able to come and go from Birmingham to London in 49 minutes, reducing the journey time by almost half from one hour and 24 minutes.
A journey from Birmingham to Leeds will be reduced from two hours to 57 minutes and a journey from Manchester to London will be reduced from two hours and 8 minutes to one hour and 8 minutes.
“HS2 is an important part of transport's lowcarbon future，” Transport Secretary Justine Greening said. Some people aren't happy about the plan, though. HS2 will cost around ￡33 billion. It will also be built near some towns and villages, disturbing the people that live there.
But the Chancellor of the Exchequer (财政大臣) George Osborne thinks it will help build the future for Britain. “It's a longterm decision，” he said.
HS2 is designed for everything around the needs of the passengers. It will provide a new and exciting travel experience. There will be plenty of room, intelligent ticketing, a good service and high quality comfort and access to trains. This is a transport network for the new century and beyond.
32．What's the UK's plan according to the passage?
A. To buy some doubledecker trains.
B. To take passengers to Manchester from London.
C. To build a highspeed train network.
D. To collect ￡33 billion for the highspeed train network.
答案与解析：C 细节理解题。根据第一段的描述和第二段的第一句可知英国政府计划修建高铁。故C项正确。A、B两项是这项计划的一部分；D项叙述错误。
33．How long does it usually take you to travel from Birmingham to London by the ordinary train?
A. 49 minutes.
B. One hour and 24 minutes.
C. 57 minutes.
D. Two hours and eight minutes.
答案与解析：B 细节理解题。根据第二段最后一句可知B项正确。
34．What can NOT be inferred from what Justine Greening and George Osborne said?
A. HS2 is more important than HS1.
B. Not all British people are happy about the plan.
C. The British will benefit from the project in the future.
D. The ￡33 billion will not be enough for the plan.
答案与解析：A 推理判断题。A项说第二阶段比第一阶段重要这一说法在文中找不到支持的证据。根据第四段中Some people aren't happy about the plan可知“并非所有英国人都对这项计划感到高兴，故B项可以推断出来；根据第五段中it will help build the future for Britain可推出C项正确；根据第四段中HS2 will cost around ￡33 billion可知这仅是该计划第二个阶段的费用，而该计划共有两个阶段，所以可得出￡33 billion对整个计划来说是不够的。
35．The passage is most probably taken from ________.
A. a novel B. a geography book
C. a personal diary D. a newspaper
答案与解析：D 推理判断题。文章主要向读者说明了英国政府建造高铁的计划，这很可能是一则新闻，故这篇文章最有可能在报纸上看到。

For many, running has never quite been their favorite activity. But running can certainly be a great way to get fit and stay healthy.
Getting started is extremely difficult. __36__ Running can be boring at times, but the effect on your body and mind is well worth that struggle of just getting up and running.

Start with short distances. Though the running community would love to have a new long－distance runner tomorrow, the fact is that that will not happen overnight. Try running one mile every day for the next 3 weeks. After that, add it to two miles and so on. __38__
Take part in a race. By signing up for a race in the near future, you will focus on a goal and be motivated to keep practicing for that event. I suggest signing up for a 5kilometer race that will occur within one month. __39__
__40__ Motivation is a major factor (因素) in running success. Bring a friend along to push you through the times and motivate them in their own.
A. Join a group.
B. One step at a time.
C. Bring a friend along.
D. Most of you will have no problem finding a great race.

After a while, the same monk was asked to get water again. When he went back to the lake，he found that the mud __68__ (settle) down already, so he collected back a pot of water. Wisdom looked at the water __69__ (happy) and then up at the monk, “To make the water clean, __70__ you need to do is just to let it be and the mud would settle down on its own.”
It is also the same with your mind. When it is disturbed, just let it be. Give it a little time and it will settle down itself.
答案与解析：
本文是一篇记叙文。老和尚用自己的方式向小和尚讲述了一个道理，人的思想和泥浆一样，只要给它时间，顺其自然，它就会安定下来。
61．thirsty 考查词性转换。句意为：累了，渴了，他们停下来休息。根据语境及Tired可知，此处应用形容词。Tired and thirsty为形容词短语作伴随状语。
62．The 考查冠词。句意为：老和尚指着湖。上文提到过的人或事下文再次提到，要用定冠词。
63．younger 考查形容词比较级。句意为：老和尚让年轻的和尚给他取一些水。用比较级表示两个和尚中比较小(年轻)的那个。young的比较级为younger。
64．drawn 考查非谓语动词。句意为：一头牛拉着车开始过湖。cart和draw之间为被动关系，故用过去分词形式。drawn by an ox作后置定语修饰a cart，表示一辆一头牛拉的车。
65．which 考查定语从句。句意为：这把水搅浑了。此处用which引导非限制性定语从句，代替前面整个句子，在从句中作主语。
66．without 考查介词。句意为：他回来了，没有带任何水。根据下文和尚的陈述可知，他没有把水带回来。故用without，表示“没有”。
67．suitable 考查词性转换。句意为：我认为这水不适合喝。根据句型“It is＋adj
- 13 -
.＋to do sth.做某事怎么样”可知，此空需填形容词。
68．had settled 考查时态。句意为：当他再次回到湖边，他发现泥已经沉入湖底。根据句意可知，settle down的动作发生在found之前，故用过去完成时。
69．happily 考查词性转换。句意为：老和尚高兴地看着，然后抬头看了一下小和尚。此处用副词happily修饰动词looked。
70．what 考查名词性从句。句意为：要想让水清澈，你需要做的就是顺其自然，泥浆自己会沉下来。用what引导主语从句，并在从句中作宾语。

范文：
Dear editor，
In the past, my hometown used to be a beautiful place. Thick trees and green grass could be seen everywhere. In order to build houses and grow more crops, people cut down more and more trees. As time went on, the whole forest was almost destroyed. Gradually, the green hills have changed into wasteland. As a result, sandstorms struck us now and then form which we suffered a lot. So, I do hope all the people should realize the terrible result of not caring about our environment. What's more, we should take good care of the forests and plant more trees instead of cutting them down so as to improve our living conditions.
Yours，
Li Hua
