the scalp(头皮)

due to a chemical reaction that occurs during the manufacturing process.

In the animal kingdom ， weakness can bring about aggression in other animal ． This
sometimes happens with humans also． But I have found that my weakness brings out the kindness in
people． I see it every day when people hold doors for me， pour cream into my coffee， or help me
to put on my coat． And I have discovered that it makes them happy．
From my wheelchair experience， I see the best in people， bur sometimes I feel sad because
those who appear independent miss the kindness I see daily． They don't get to see this soft side of
others often， we try bevery way possible to avoid showing our weakness， which includes a lot of
pretending． But only when we stop pretending we're brave or strong do we allow people to show the
kindness that's in them．
Last month， when I was driving home on a busy highway， I began to feel unwell and drove
more slowly than usual． People behind me began to get impatient and angry， with some speeding
up alongside me， horning（按喇叭） or even shouting at me． At the moment I decided to do
something I had never done in twenty-four years of driving． I put on the car flashlights and drove on
at a really low speed．
No more angry shouts and no more horns!
When I put on my flashlights， I was saying to other drivers， "I have a problem here． I am
weak and doing the best I can．" And everyone understood． Several times， I saw drivers who
wanted to pass． They couldn't get around me because of the stream of passing traffic． But instead
of getting impatient and angry， they waited， knowing the driver in front of them was in some
way weak．
Sometimes situations call for us to act strong and brave even when we don't feel that way． But
those are and far between． More often， it would be better if we don't pretend we feel strong when
we feel weak or pretend that we are brave when we are scared．

62． Which of the following is the best title for the passage？___

C
I live in the land of Disney, Hollywood and year-round sun. You may think people in such a
splendid, fun-filled place are happier than others. If so, you have some mistaken ideas about the
nature of happiness.
Many intelligent people still equate happiness with fun. The truth is that fun and happiness have
little or nothing in common. Fun is what we experience during an act. Happiness is what we
experience after an act. It is a deeper, more lasting emotion.
Going to an amusement park or ball game, watching a movie or television, are fun activities
that help us relax, temporarily forget our problems and maybe even laugh. But they do not bring
happiness, because their positive effects end when the fun ends.
I have often thought that if Hollywood stars have a role to play, it is to teach us that happiness
has nothing to do with fun. These rich, beautiful individuals have constant access to glamorous
parties, fancy cars, expensive homes, everything that spells “happiness”. But in memoir（回忆录）
after memoir, they reveal the unhappiness hidden beneath all their fun: depression, alcoholism, drug
addiction, broken marriages, troubled children and profound loneliness.
Ask a bachelor why he resists marriage, if he’s honest, and he will tell you that he is afraid of
making a commitment, for commitment is in fact quite painful. The single life is filled with fun,
adventure and excitement. Marriage has such moments, but they are not its most distinguishing
features.
Similarly, couples that choose not to have children are deciding in favor of painless fun over
painful happiness. They can dine out whenever they want and sleep as late as they can. Couples with
infant children are lucky to get a whole night’s sleep or a three-day vacation. I don’t know any
parent who would choose the word fun to describe raising children.
Understanding and accepting that true happiness has nothing to do with fun is one of the most
liberating（解放性的）realizations. It liberates time: now we can devote more hours to activities
that can genuinely increase our happiness. It liberates money: buying that new car or those fancy
clothes that will do nothing to increase our happiness now seems pointless. And it liberates us from
envy: we now understand that all those rich and glamorous people we were so sure are happy
because they are always having so much fun actually may not be happy at all.
63. We can learn from the passage that____________.
A. fun creates long-lasting satisfactionB. fun provides enjoyment while pain leads to happiness
C. happiness is lasting whereas fun is short-lived
D. fun that is long-standing may lead to happiness
64. To the author, the role Hollywood stars will play is to _________.
A. write memoir after memoir about their happiness
B. tell the public that happiness has nothing to do with fun
C. teach people how to enjoy their lives
D. bring happiness to the public instead of going to parties
D
Predictions about higher education’s future often result in two very different visions about what
is next for colleges and universities. In one camp: those who paint a rosy picture of an economy that
will continue to demand higher levels of education for an increasing share of the workforce. In the
other: those who believe fewer people will enroll（入学）in college as tuition costs go out of control
and alternatives to the traditional degree emerge.
“We are living in an age for learning, when there’s so much knowledge available, that one
would think that this is good news for higher education,” Bryan Alexander told me recently.
Alexander writes often about the future of higher education and is finishing a book on the subject for
Johns Hopkins University Press. “Yet we’ve seen enrollment in higher education drop for six years.”
Alexander believes that for some colleges and universities to survive, they need to shift from
their historical mission of serving one type of student (usually a teenager fresh out of high school)
for a specific period of time. “We’re going to see many different ways through higher education in
the future,” Alexander said, “from closer ties between secondary and postsecondary（中学后）
schools to new options for adults. The question is, which institutions adopt new models and which
try desperately to hang on to what they have.”
“The fact is that to maintain affordability, accessibility and excellence, something needs to
change,” Rafael Bras, Georgia Tech’s provost (院长), told me when he unveiled the report at the
Milken Institute Global Conference this past spring.
The commission’s report includes many impressive ideas, but three point to the possibility of a
very different future for colleges and universities.
1) College for life, rather than just four years. The primary recommendation of the Georgia
Tech report is that the university turns itself into a place for lifelong learning that allows students to
“associate rather than enroll.”
“Students who we educate now are expected to have a dozen occupations,” Bras said. “So a
system that receives students once in their lives and turns them out with the Good Housekeeping
seal(印章) of approval to become alums (校友) and come back on occasion and give money is not
the right model for the future.”
2) A network of advisers and coaches for a career. If education never ends, Georgia Tech
predicts, neither should the critical advising function that colleges provide to students. The
commission outlines a plan in which artificial intelligence and virtual tutors help advise students
about selecting courses and finding the best career options. But even for a university focused on
science and technology, Georgia Tech doesn’t suggest in its report that computers will replace
humans for all advising.
3) A distributed presence around the world. Colleges and universities operate campuses and
require students to come to them. In the past couple of decades, online education has grown greatly,
but for the most part, higher education is still about face-to-face interactions.
Georgia Tech imagines a future in which the two worlds are blended in what it calls the “atrium” — a place that share space with entrepreneurs and become gathering places for students
and alumni.
In some ways, as the report noted, the atrium idea is a nod to the past, when universities had
agricultural and engineering experiment stations with services closer to where people in the state
needed them.
Whether Georgia Tech’s ideas will become real is, of course, unclear. But as Alexander told me
after reading it, “There is a strong emphasis on flexibility and transformation so they can meet
emergent trends.” This is clear: colleges and universities are about to undergo a period of deep
change — whether they want to or not — as the needs of students and the economy shift.
65.What can we learn from the two camps’ opinions about future colleges?
A．Future workforce will have high levels of education.
B．The expensive traditional degree is losing its appeal.
C．Traditional higher education is not practical.
D．Declining enrollment in college results from easy learning.
66.What should traditional colleges do according to Alexander?
A．They should provide new options for adults to enter colleges.
B．The should strengthen the ties between secondary and postsecondary schools.
C．They should abandon what they have and change their historical mission.
D．They should offer more freedom to students throughout their life.
67.What can we infer from the commission’s report?
A．Students can return for further study or make donations freely after graduation.
B．Artificial intelligence and virtual tutors will perform better in career guidance.
C．It focuses on how to make people enjoy good education without stress.
D．There is no point in requiring students to be present at school.
68.The underlined words “two worlds” refer to _______.
A．Basic education and higher education
B．entrepreneurs and students
C．present education and future education
D．virtual education and real classes
69.What does the author think of atrium idea?
A．It corresponds to the past idea in some way.
B．It is hard to realize despite its flexibility.
C．It makes some industries more accessible.
D．It is a practical solution to the declining enrollment.
70.The passage mainly talks about _________.
A．a reflection on the drawbacks of current higher education
B．the key factors which determine higher education’s future
C．two camps’ opposite opinions about higher education's future
D．a comparison between traditional and future higher education

空格只填一个单词。
If we agree that the function of education is to prepare us for life, then there is very little time to
waste. So, while we can, we ought to concentrate on teaching children something really useful. Here is what our schools should teach.
Politeness is a mark of civilization. The sooner children learn this, the better. In any case, a lot
can be accomplished by a smile and good manners.
Like it or not, our adult lives will be consumed by the struggle for money, but we don’t make
an effort to teach children how to manage it. So our schools have a duty to teach them this ability
from the beginning.
We’re likely no accept something we are told, but that’s not what educated people do. Educated
people are reasonable and they look at facts. If our schools teach nothing else, they should at least
teach critical（批判性的）thinking.
Children should learn to take care of their health. They should know that if they eat junk food
（垃圾食品）, they will become fat and unhealthy. They should be very clear about what happens to
their bodies when they drink or smoke.
All of us are part of society. We have rights and responsibilities. We ought to understand what
they are. We have to know a little bit of history and geography, because we need to have an
environment in which to relate to the people around us.
How will we test students on these? We can’t. But that’s not a reason to avoid teaching what is
important. Our schools should spend every moment they have telling this to our children: “This is
life, this is what you are going to face, and this is how you deal with it.”

第五部分：书面表达（满分 25 分）
81.阅读下面的短文，然后按照要求写一篇 150 词左右的英语短文。
In recent years educators and parents have become concerned about the poor performance of
boys in school. The so-called “boy crisis (危机)” in education refers to both their academic
performance and their behaviour, In both areas boys’ results are much worse than girls’.
USA data shows that boys rank behind girls in almost all areas of schooling. They earn lower
grades overall in primary school and high school. They are behind girls in reading and writing, and
30 percent of them are in the bottom quarter of standardized tests, compared with19 percent of girls.
Boys are also more likely to have behavioural problems, to repeat a grade and drop out of school
altogether. Studies in China have found similar trends.
Although the causes of the “boy crisis” are not fully understood, some experts believe that same-sex (boys-only and girls-only) classrooms and schools may help solve the problem. The idea is
to remove some of the distractions caused by the opposite sex, in order to improve students’
concentration and hopefully their grades. The first Chinese school to experiment with this idea is the
Shanghai No. 8 Middle School, which began “boys-only” classes in September, 2012. Although it is
too early to tell if the reform has made a difference, its supporters argue that the results are
promising.

作文参考：
The passage shows that nowadays boys tend to perform worse than girls in all aspects in
school, which is known as the “boy crisis”. Experts suggest that same-sex schooling may be a
possible solution to the problem.
From my perspective, the merits of single sex education are as follows. Firstly, kids feel more
comfortable being themselves in this environment. Secondly, it is easier for teachers to design
learning tasks because boys and girls process information differently. When it comes to its
disadvantages, the lack of socialization is my primary concern. If kids lack the opportunity to
communicate with the opposite sex, their psychological development and their communication skills
may be harmed.As for me, I'm opposed to the same-sex education. One reason is because it's not practical to be
carried out on a large scale at present. Moreover, same-sex schools could encourage inequality and
unfairness between boys and girls. But most importantly, if kids can encounter the opposite sex, they
will have more appreciation, understanding and sympathy for others. This will help them be more
mature and open-minded and contribute to their well-being in later life.
