第二部分 阅读理解（共两节，满分40分）
第一节（共15小题：每小题2分，满分30分）
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，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
A
One moment it was quiet and calm in the forest, the next, the air was charged with tension. The elephant had heard the distant alarm calls of animals and her mood suddenly changed. I urged the elephant deeper into the forest. We sounded like a forest fire-crackling, snapping, trailblazing. But through all the noise came a sharp warning cry. The elephant stopped and we heard it again—the tell-tale call of a spotted deer.
I looked quickly around the shadows of the forest. Rays of sunlight shone through tree branches, beneath which the patchwork (交错) of green plants and shadows-within-shadows would make tiger stripes (条纹) look more attractive. Apart from an occasional noise from the elephant's stomach, the forest was silent.
Gradually, the tension slipped from our bodies. The elephant seized a nearby branch and put it into her mouth. I reached forward and gently moved my hand over the elephant's neck; there was a soft part, free of wrinkles and hairs, behind her ear.
This was my fourth time to sense the aura of the forest in Corbett, although I saw no tigers in the end. Located at the foot of the Himalayan mountains, Corbett is home to about 135 Bengal tigers, but the forest seemed to be guarding their whereabouts( 出没处), a silent reminder of their secrecy and rarity. Still, I was happy enough touching the elephant behind the ear. If I had so desperately wanted to see a tiger, I could have gone to a zoo. After all, spotting tigers merely confirms their beauty; tracking them can make you aware of something more.
2Which of the following was a clear signal of alarm?
A. The elephant stopped.
B. A spotted deer called.
C. The elephant seized a branch.
D. The forest was silent for a while.
2The author begins his account of the tour in the forest mainly by____.
A. describing various sounds
B. comparing different animals
C. listing different activities
D. introducing various plants
2What does the underlined part "to sense the aura" most probably mean?
A. To see the diversity.
B. To enjoy the scenery.
C. To feel the atmosphere.
D. To experience the freedom.
2How does the author feel after several visits to Corbett?
A. Seeing a Bengal tiger is quite thrilling.
B. It is very time-consuming to travel in Corbett.
C. It is really worthwhile to study the animals in Corbett.
D. The process of finding Bengal tigers is most appealing.
B
Stop wasting your time thinking of reasons for your failures and shortcomings. Instead, realize that the seeds of success were planted within you when you were born. Only you have the power to make those seeds grow.
The seeds, and the power to grow them, are contained in the most awesome machine ever created: the human mind. Success is a choice and not a chance. You were born a winner. You were born rich. You can be a success if only you make the right choice.
You cannot be successful without first developing your self-esteem (自信心). Your level of self-esteem is always based on the degree of control that you are able to exercise over yourself, and thus over your life. People with low self-esteem are people who do not believe that they have any power, or responsibility for their lives. They are always victims. They are leaves tossed (摇摆) by the winds of chance blown about with any sudden change in the weather.
You can exercise control over your life only to the degree that you believe you are responsible for everything that happens in your life. Failures think that everything happens by accident and chance. Successful people realize that they are responsible.
Everything happens as a result of something. If we can identify the cause, we can control the effect. We are responsible for what we choose to think and believe. One generally rises to the level that one expects. We are responsible for setting our expectations. Our success is dependent upon our level of confidence.
If you associate with positive-thinking people, you are definitely going to achieve success. On the contrary, the opposite happens. We are responsible for finding, planting, and nurturing (培育) the seeds that contain future victory, born from setbacks (挫折).
In short, in all areas of your life, whether they are financial, physical, emotional, or spiritual, you are responsible. Once you recognize this, accept it, and firmly believe it. You are on the road to success.
2People with low self-esteem are compared to leaves because they ______.
A. can’t exercise control over themselves B. are easily affected by windy weather
C. don’t have the power to face their fate D. are ready to change their minds
2Losers would think that ______.
A. success is the result of hard work B. working hard will lead to success
C. they fail only because of bad luck D. they don’t make efforts to succeed
2It can be inferred from the fifth paragraph that ______.
A. setting our expectations is essential before taking action
B. knowing cause and effect is the key to future success
C. thoughts and beliefs are the result of creative mind
D. whether we will succeed depends on our attitudes
2The last paragraph serves as ______.
A. the proof of the author’s points B. the conclusion of the argument
C. an introduction to another topic D. a comparison between two views
C
Britain’s private schools are one of its most successful exports．The children of the well-off flock to them，whether from China，Nigeria or Russia ：the number of foreign pupils rose by 1.4％in the last year alone．
Yet foreign students，whether educated in British private schools or elsewhere，are decreasingly likely to go to English universities．According to the Higher Education Funding Council for England，307,200 overseas students began their studies in the country in 2012-13，down from 312，000 two years earlier and the first drop in 29 years．Student numbers from the rest of the European Union(EU)fell—probably a result of the increase in annual tuition fees in England from ￡6，000(＄10，000)a year to ￡9，000．But arrivals from India and Pakistan declined most sharply．
In contrast to the visa system for private schools，which is extremely loose(the Home Office counts private schools as favored sponsors)，student visas have been tightened.Foreign students used to be allowed to work for up to two years after graduating．They now have only four months to find a job paying up to ￡20，600 if they want to stay in Britain．
This change was intended to deal with fake colleges offering two-year work visas．But it seems to have put off serious students too．Nick Hillman of the Higher Education Policy Institute says the government has sent unclear messages about the sort of immigration it wants to restrict．Australia and America，which have more relaxed entry criteria for students，are becoming more favored destinations．
Britain’s student-visa system has become more onerous(繁琐) overall．As a result，Britain is losing out to other countries in the contest for talent．Its unwelcoming attitude will harm its long-term development．And the drift of foreign students from leading British private schools to American colleges may have another, somewhat happier，consequence：America might become rather better at cricket．
2What causes the foreign student numbers to English universities to drop?
A．Poor quality of higher education．
B．The sharp increase of tuition fees．
C．The poor economic situation in EU．
D．Higher living cost in England．
30.What’s the aim of UK tightening its student visas?
A．To control the student number from India and Pakistan．
B．To increase the financial income of UK．
C．To send clear messages about the sort of immigration．
D．To deal with fake colleges that offer‘two-year work visas．
31.Why is it easy to get the visa from private schools in Britain?
A．Because private schools have bad quality of education．
B．Because graduates from private schools can earn￡20，600．
C．Because private schools turn in more money to the Home Office．
D．Because their students can work for two years after graduating．
32.According to the passage，Britain________．
A．is famous for playing cricket
B．will get more talents in the future
C．will simplify its student-visa system
D．will help US colleges to develop cricket
D
However wealthy we may be, we can never find enough hours in the day to do everything we want. Economics deals with this problem through the concept of opportunity cost, which simply refers to whether someone’s time or money could be better spent on something else.
Every hour of our time has a value. For every hour we work at one job we could quite easily be doing another, or be sleeping or watching a film. Each of these options has a different opportunity cost—namely, what they cost us in missed opportunities.
Say you intend to watch a football match but the tickets are expensive and it will take you a couple of hours to get to and from the stadium. Why not, you might reason, watch the game from home and use the leftover money and time to have dinner with friends? This—the alternative use of your cash and time—is the opportunity cost.
For economists, every decision is made by knowledge of what one must for gone—in terms of money and enjoyment—in order to take it up. By knowing precisely what you are receiving and what you are missing out on, you ought to be able to make better-informed, more reasonable decisions. Consider that most famous economic rule of all: there’s no such thing as a free lunch. Even if someone offers to take you out to lunch for free, the time you will spend in the restaurant still costs you something in terms of forgone opportunities.
Some people find the idea of opportunity cost extremely discouraging: imagine spending your entire life calculating whether your time would be better spent else where doing something more profitable or enjoyable. Yet, in a sense it’s human nature to do precisely that—we assess the advantages and disadvantages of decisions all the time.
In the business world, a popular phrase is “value for money.” People want their cash to go as far as possible. However, another is fast obtaining an advantage: “value for time.” The biggest restriction on our resources is the number of hours we can devote to something, so we look to maximize the return we get on our investment of time. By reading this passage you are giving over a bit of your time which could be spent doing other activities, such as sleeping and eating. In return, however, this passage will help you to think like an economist, closely considering the opportunity cost of each of your decisions.
33.According to the passage, the concept of “opportunity cost” is applied to ________.
A. making more money B. taking more opportunities
C. reducing missed opportunities D. weighing the choice of opportunities
34.The “leftover ... time” in Paragraph 3 probably refers to the time ________.
A. spared for watching the match at home B. taken to have dinner with friends
C. spent on the way to and from the match D. saved from not going to watch the match
3What are forgone opportunities?
A. Opportunities you forget in decision-making. B. Opportunities you give up for better ones.
C. Opportunities you miss accidentally. D. Opportunities you make up for.
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。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Simple ways to get happy
We’re not suggesting that you can reach a permanent state called “happiness” and remain there.But there are many ways to turn the path of anxiety,anger,and sadness into a state of happiness.Here are four ideas to get you started.36.
1.Laugh out loud.
Just expecting a happy,funny event can raise levels of pleasure-causing hormones and lower production of stress hormones.Researchers at the University of California tested 16 men who all agreed they thought a certain videotape was funny.Half were told three days in advance they would watch it.37. When they actually watched the video,their levels of stress hormones dropped greatly,while their levels of pleasure-causing hormones rose 27 percent.
2.Do one thing at a time.
Edward Suarez,professor of medical psychology at Duke,found that people who do several things at the same time are more likely to have high blood pressure.38. Instead of talking on the phone while cleaning the kitchen,sit down in a comfortable chair and turn your entire attention over to the conversation.
3.39.
Although relationships help take away stress,sometimes you need time to recharge and reflect on your own.Take yourself out to lunch or to a movie,or simply spend an afternoon reading at home,or looking through books in a bookstore.
4.Practice mindfulness.
40. Instead of worrying about your check-up tomorrow while having dinner with your family,focus on the here and now—the food,the company,and the conversation.
A.Spend time alone.
B.Be in the moment.
C.Take care of the soul.
D.Take that finding to heart.
E.Choose the ones that work for you.
F.They started experiencing biological changes right away.
G.Find a quiet place near your house and make it your secret getaway.

第二节（共10小题：每小题1.5分，满分15分）
61. interviewed 这里应填谓语动词的过去时，HR manager: 人力资源部经理。
62. and “Do sth., and sb./sth. will…”是一个常见句型，例如：Use your head, and you’ll find a way.
63. neither /nor /or 若上句是否定句，则后一句常用neither或nor表示“也不，也没有”。 另外，在否定句中的并列连词不用and多用or。
64. whoever 在这里作主语引导主语从句，整句意思是“凡是不存在的人都不能拥有这份工作。”
65. with with no hope at all= without any hope: 不怀任何希望。
66. succeeded 此处缺少谓语动词。
67. biggest 这里应该用形容词的最高级形式，在one of the + 形容词+名词的结构里，形容词应是最高级形式，例如：She is one of the most diligent students in our class.
68. an an insurance broker：一个保险经纪人
69. curiously 这里应填副词作状语修饰动词replied。
70. what 引导宾语从句，在从句中作have been的表语。整个宾语从句用了虚拟语气，意思是：“要是你有email，那你又该成了什么样的人哪？”
第一节 短文改错（共10小题，每小题1分，满分10分）
1.recently→recent 考查形容词。此处应用形容词recent修饰名词years。
2.chose→choose 考查时态。此处陈述的是客观情况，应用一般现在时。
3.comparing→compared 考查非谓语动词。此处compare与the year 2012存在逻辑上的动宾关系，故应用过去分词。
4Therefore→However 考查连词。上下文为转折关系。
5.去掉to 考查动词。Go为不及物动词，可单独使用，不需加to。
6.talks→talk 考查主谓一致。主语为Others谓语动词应用复数形式。
7.are→were 考查虚拟语气。在as if连接的状语从句中，通常用虚拟语气，表示与现在事实相反的情况，故谓语动词常用一般过去时。
8.harmful→harm 考查固定搭配。do harm to为固定短语。
9.it→which 考查定语从句。分析句子结构可知，逗号后为非限制性定语从句，关系代词which在从句中作主语，指代前句内容。
10.在regard后加as 考查固定短语。regard...as为固定短语。

One possible version
Dear Mr. Hill,
I’m writing on behalf of my classmates to invite you to join us for a poetry recital party on September 15 for the Mid-Autumn Festival.
It is a traditional Chinese festival to celebrate the coming of the harvest season. The party is going to take place in South Lake Park from 7:00 pm to 9:00 pm., during which time we will admire the beautiful full moon, eat delicious mooncakes and enjoy some classic Chinese poems about the moon and the festival.
It will be a great pleasure if you could come and have fun with us. I’m sure we will have a wonderful time together. If you’d like to participate, please let us know at your earliest convenience. We will arrange for a student to pick you up.
Looking forward to your reply.
Yours sincerely,
Li Hua
