‎ ‎ 第一部分：听力（略）‎ 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）‎ 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳答案，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。‎ A Driving to a friend’s house on a recent evening, I was attracted by the sight of the full moon rising just above my friend’s roof-tops. I stopped to watch it for a few moments, thinking about what a pity it was that most citizens, myself included, usually miss sights like this because we spend most of our lives indoors.‎ My friend had also seen it. He grew up living in a forest in Europe, and the moon meant a lot to him then. It had touched much of his life.‎ I know the feeling. Last December I took my seven-year-old daughter to the mountainous jungle of northern India with some friends. We stayed in a forest rest-house with no electricity or running hot water. Our group had campfires outside every night, and indoors when it was too cold outside. The moon grew to its fullest during our trip. Between me and the high mountains lay three or four valleys. Not a light shone in them and not a sound could be heard. It was one of the quietest places I have ever known, a bottomless well of silence. And above me was the full moon, which struck me deeply. ‎ Today our lives are filled with glass, metal, plastic and fiber-glass. We have televisions, cellphones, pagers, electricity, heaters and ovens and air-conditioners, cars, computers.‎ Struggling through traffic that evening at the end of a tiring day, most of which was spent in doors, I thought that before long I would like to live in a small cottage. There I will grow vegetables and read books and walk in the mountains, and perhaps write, but not in anger. I may ‎ become an old man there, and wear the bottoms of my trousers rolled and measure out my life in coffee spoons. But I will be able to walk outside on a cold silent night and touch the moon.‎ ‎1. The best title for the passage would be______.‎ A. The pleasures of modern life B. Touched by the moon C. A bottomless well of silence D. Break away from modern life ‎2. What impressed the writer most in the mountainous jungle of northern India?‎ A. No modern equipment B. Complete silence.‎ C. The nice moonlight D. The high mountains.‎ ‎3. Modern things (Paragraph 4)are mentioned mainly to ______.‎ A. show that the writer liker city life very much B. tell us that people greatly benefit from modern life C. explain that people have less chances to enjoy nature D. show that we can also enjoy nature at home through them ‎4. The author wrote the passage to_____.‎ A. express the feeling of returning to nature B. show the love for the moonlight C. advise modern people to learn to live D. want to communicate longing for modern life B Is It Worth Buying Organic Food?‎ Organic food, grown without artificial chemicals, is increasingly popular nowadays. Consumers have been willing to pay up to twice as much for goods with organic labels (商标). However, if you think paying a little more for organic food gets you a more nutritious and safer product, you might want to save your money. A study led by researchers at Stanford‎ ‎University ‎ says that organic products aren’t necessarily more nutritious, and they’re no less likely to suffer from disease-causing bacteria, either.‎ The latest results, published in the Annuals of Internal Medicine, suggest that buyers may be wasting their money. “We did not find strong evidence that organic food is more nutritious or healthier,” says Dr. Crystal Smith-Spangler from Stanford. “So consumers shouldn’t assume that one type of food has a lower risk or is safer.”‎ For their new study, Smith-Spangler and her colleagues conducted a review of two categories of research, including 17 studies that compared health outcomes between consumers of organic against traditional food products, and 223 studies that analyzed the nutritional content of the foods, including key vitamins, minerals and fats.‎ While the researchers found little difference in nutritional content, they did find that organic fruit and vegetables were 20% less likely to have chemicals remaining on the surfaces. Neither organic nor traditional foods showed levels of chemicals high enough to go beyond food safety standards. And both organic and traditional meats, such as chicken and pork, were equally likely to be harmed by bacteria at very low rates. The researchers did find that organic milk and chicken contained higher levels of omega-3 fatty acids, a healthy fat also found in fish that can reduce the risk of heart disease. However, these nutritional differences were too small, and the researchers were unwilling to make much of them until further studies confirm the trends.‎ Organic food is produced with fewer chemicals and more natural-growing practices, but that doesn’t always translate into a more nutritious or healthier product. The U. S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) states that “whether you buy organic or not, finding the freshest foods available may have the biggest effect on taste.” Fresh food is at least as good as anything marketed as organic.‎ ‎5. The new research questions whether organic food __________.‎ A. should replace traditional food B. has been overpriced by farmers C. is grown with less harmful chemicals D. is really more nutritious and healthier ‎6. Smith-Spangler and her colleagues found that __________.‎ A. organic food could reduce the risk of heart disease B. traditional food was grown with more natural methods C. both organic and traditional food they examined were safe D. there was not a presence of any forms of bacteria in organic food ‎7. Which of the following is relatively healthier according to the passage?‎ A. Organic chicken and pork. B. Organic milk and chicken.‎ C. Traditional chicken and pork. D. Traditional fruit and vegetables.‎ ‎8. What is the author’s attitude toward organic food?‎ A. Skeptical. B. Neutral. C. Unconcerned. D. Approving.‎ C Following in the footsteps of Morgan Spurlock, who ate only McDonald’s food for one month in the film Super Size Me, an Australian man has undergone a sugar-heavy diet for 60 days to explore sugar’s impact on his health.‎ Within three weeks, the formerly healthy Gameau became moody and sluggish (迟钝的). A doctor gave him the shocking diagnosis: He was beginning to develop fatty liver(肝) disease. According to the Mayo Clinic, the most severe outcome for fatty liver disease is liver failure.‎ Gameau reportedly consumed 40 teaspoons of sugar per day, or slightly more than the average teenager worldwide. According to the American Heart Association (AHA), the average American consumes 20 teaspoons of sugar daily. The AHA’s daily recommendations for sugar consumption are 6 teaspoons for women and 9 teaspoons for men.‎ Doctors called Gameau’s mental functioning “unstable”, and the father-to-be reportedly put on nearly four inches of visceral (内脏的) fat around his waist. He was on the fast track to obesity. Gameau said his diet left him feeling hungry, no matter how much he ate. His final meal, which consisted of a juice, a jam sandwich, a bar, and a handful of other snacks, is similar to an ordinary child’s school lunchbox. “Sadly, it was very easy to fit comfortably into the small plastic container,” Gameau wrote on his blog. “The last meal is for all the people out there, especially ‎ parents, who are led to believe they are doing the right and healthy thing for their children. They are making an effort, yet they are horribly let down by the lack of integrity in marketing and packaging strategies.”‎ Gameau told News. com. au that the experiment’s findings don’t suggest a need to completely cut sugar, but rather a need for more awareness about how much sugar has been added to healthy food.‎ ‎9. What can we learn about Gameau from Paragraph 2 ?‎ A. He became mentally unstable after trying the diet.‎ B. He had complicated personality before he tried the diet.‎ C. He developed liver failure in the end because of the diet.‎ D. He knew the harm of the diet well at the very beginning.‎ ‎10. What do the figures mentioned in Paragraph 3 mainly tell us?‎ A. Men usually consume more sugar than women.‎ B. Teenagers worldwide consume too much sugar.‎ C. Americans consume the most sugar in the world.‎ D. Adults should consume more sugar than teenagers do.‎ ‎11. By comparing Gameau’s final meal to an ordinary child’s school lunchbox, the writer wants to show that _______.‎ A. school children often feel hungry at school B. school children aren’t eating healthily at school C. schools attach great importance to children’s diet D. parents know very well what their children need to eat D They may have text, email, Facebook and Twitter, but young people are still lonelier than any other age group. The Loneliness in New Zealand Report, published by Statistics New Zealand, shows under 30s are more likely to feel lonely than older people because loneliness decreases with age. Loneliness and poor mental health were strongly related across all ages. Young people were not as likely to feel lonely because of financial hardship, but among older people, lack of money was a significant influence on loneliness. Women were more likely to feel lonely than men.‎ ‎ Philip Walker, spokesman for the General Social Survey, said because it was relatively new ‎ it was hard to know whether loneliness among young people was a new trend. But overseas research has found that levels of loneliness in youth today are growing.‎ ‎ Mr. Walker said the finding needed more exploration, including looking at the role of technology and social media. “It could be that people’s expectations of connection have gone up, so we expect increased levels of connection,” he said. “While technology like cell phones could help young people stay connected, on the other hand for those who do get bullied(欺辱), especially bullied online, it’s quite isolating. A lot of the time potentially it is a big contributor to loneliness.”‎ ‎ Figures from online dating website FindSomeone also confirmed more young people were looking for love. Manager Rick Davies, said younger dating hopefuls were the fastest growing group on the site.‎ ‎ Mr. Davies noted that since the report data was collected in 2010 there had been huge growth in smart phones, which meant people were online even more. He believed online tools, such as Skype, could help people stay connected. “People can keep in touch with a wide range of friends from all over the world much more easily now. It’s like you’re sitting in your living room having a chat with them.”‎ ‎ Bemardine Reid, operations committee chairwoman for Samaritans, which operates a free helpline, said many of their calls came from people who were lonely. “It might be that they’ve got some problem, just like all the things people would normally talk to a friend about, but people who are alone lack those normal contacts.”‎ The Statistics New Zealand report also showed people who didn’t have face-to-face contact with family and friends were more likely to feel lonely, as were those who lived alone.‎ ‎12. Which of the following may Mr. Walker agree with?‎ A. High technology may become a reason for loneliness.‎ B. People shouldn’t use the Internet to get to know strangers.‎ C. It’s hard for people to get enough connection online as expected.‎ D. Social media should play an important role in helping lonely people.‎ ‎13. It can be inferred from the passage that ________.‎ A. FindSomeone is a website where you can find old friends B. without technology, young people would not feel lonely C. high technology results in the older being lonely D. those cheated or hurt online tend to feel lonely ‎14. From the last two paragraphs, we can conclude that ________.‎ A. Internet can keep people free from loneliness B. people chatting a lot online tend to be optimistic C. people living alone tend to have more connection online D. people communicating less in the real world risk loneliness ‎15. What is the best title of the passage?‎ A. Loneliness Around You B. Young People Online C. Young but Lonely D. E-times and Young People 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。‎ What do the world’s most successful people all have in common?‎ By examining the work habits of over 150 greatest writers and artists and scientists, the researchers including Standford Professor Jeffrey Pfeffer found that high achievers like Robert Moses turn out to be all alike:‎ Busy ! Busy!‎ ‎ ‎16 In a study of general managers in industry, John Kotter reported that many of them worked 60 to 65 hours per week—which translates into at least six 10-hour days. The ability and willingness to work difficult and tiring hours has characterized many powerful figures. Energy and strength provide many advantages to those seeking to build power.‎ Just Say No!‎ The difference between successful people and very successful people is that very successful people say “no” to almost everything. And that’s what gives them the time to accomplish so much. 17 And focus means saying “no” to a lot of distractions(分神). ‎ Know What You Are!‎ Ignore your weakness and keep improving your strengths. Don’t waste time exploring skill areas where you have little competence. Instead, focus on—and build on—your strengths. 18 .‎ Create Good Luck!‎ Luck is not magical—there is a science to it. Richard Wiseman studied lucky people for his ‎ book Luck Factor, and broke down what they do right. 19 By being more outgoing, open to new ideas, following the feeling that something is true, being optimistic, lucky people create possibilities. ‎ ‎ Does applying these principles to your life actually work Wiseman created a “luck school” to test the ideas—and it was a success. In total, 80 percent of people who attended Luck School said that their luck had increased. 20 .‎ A. Spend enough time to improve your weakness.‎ B. Achievement requires focus.‎ C. On average, these people reported that their luck had increased by more than 40 percent.‎ D. They never stop working and they never lose a minute.‎ E. Busy people are more likely to be lucky.‎ F. This means knowing who you are, what you are and what you are good at.‎ G. Certain personality types are luckier because they behave in a way that offer the chance for good opportunities.‎ 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、D）中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。‎ The train shook back and forth, its wheels making a loud noise on the tracks.
