I live on the West Coast of British Columbia with my husband and three children. Our day started
like any other day. My husband left for work in the north of the town, which is an hour and a
half's drive. The younger children caught their bus to school ten minutes away. Our oldest attends
high school and is a 40-minute drive away. I work at home in the office, working on the computer.
It was November 2006 and the news had reported gusty winds. When the winds started to get strong
I shut the computer down and tried to phone my husband. I left a message telling him the winds
were blowing at 80 to 90km/hr. As I hung up the phone, I heard a tree crack. I went outside and
stood in the driveway. Another tree exploded and my heart was racing.
When the school bus carrying the youngsters arrived, I ran to get them. No sooner had we made it
to the house than another tree exploded. The children were clearly scared, so I loaded them up into
the car and we parked in the middle of the yard, where no trees could land on us, it was starting to
get dark.
My oldest son didn't come home on the bus and my husband was stranded at work. I called the high
school and reached my son. He said he was stranded and didn't know what to do. I called a friend
in town for help. He managed to get my son home to me. Finally, my husband managed to get
home.
We had been prepared for such events, as we had a generator, candles, a wood stove, fresh
water, batteries and two freezers full of food. We were without power for five days. But we didn't
panic-we had all the emergency equipment we needed. Thankfully, none of our neighbours were
injured, but the damage was extensive. We are witnessing climate change. We need to be
prepared.
4. When did the mother hear a tree crack for the third time? ______

Darwin noted that some human emotional expressions might have started as part of a physiological
function: for example, exposing the teeth to bite food. The function, however, took on
meaning and became a form of communication which signals anger.
The same may be true for the animals. Baby monkeys cry for attention. They also cry to signal to
an adult that they want to be carried.
"Chimpanzees do make upset voice when they are being weaned (断奶) by their mothers or have
lost their mothers or another individual," says Anne Pusey, a professor at the University of
Minnesota. "They whimper (呜咽) and cry and scream. When we hear these calls, the emotion
involved seems obvious. However, they do not weep in the sense of producing tears. I have seen
an adolescent male whimpering when he lost sight of his older brother with whom he had been
traveling."
Babies of many mammalian species, including rats, cry. Moreover, when a baby rat cries,
often his mother brings the fallen pup back into the nest. This is probably a straightforward
communication, as it is with humans. However, psychologists at the University of Iowa aren't
convinced.
The Iowan researchers can cause the same crying sounds by producing large decreases and then
increases in blood flow. The blood flow also goes down when baby rats get cold. Thus, they
conclude baby rats cry in the same way that we sneeze. Of course the rat baby could be crying
because he's cold and wants his mother to know.
"All young mammals make cries when separated from their mother," says Jaak Panksepp, a
psychologist at Bowling Green State University. "If you're willing to call this crying, then
certainly other animals show this emotional response." he says, " Some of us take seriously that
animals do have emotions."
8. According to the first paragraph, what kind of emotion does "exposing the teeth" express?
______
A. Disappointment. B. Excitement.
C. Anger. D. Happiness.
9. Which is one probable reason why young chimpanzees might be crying? ______
A. They meet their brother.
B. They have nothing to eat.
C. They are being breast-fed.
D. They are parted from their mother.
10. Under what circumstance will baby rats cry just like humans' sneeze? ______
A. Their blood flow is decreased.
B. They feel cold and long for affection.
C. Their blood flow is increased.
D. Their mother brings them back home.
11. Where is the passage most likely taken from? ______
A. An animal journal. B. A physiology book.
C. A health magazine. D. A cultural newspaper.
D
Most people who own iPhones use them as their alarm clocks-making it very easy to check emails one
last time before falling asleep and hard to ever feel away from work and social networks.
Several years ago, my boss fainted due to exhaustion after staying up late to catch up on
work. She banged her head and ended up with five stitches (缝针)-and became what she calls a
"sleep evangelist (传教士)." Now she leaves her phone charging in another room when she goes
to bed and encourages her friends to do the same.
"I sent all my friends the same Christmas gift-a lovely alarm clock-so they could stop using the excuse
that they needed their very attractive iPhones by their beds to wake them up in the morning." she
said.
If your phone wakes you up in the morning, it may also be keeping you up at night. A 2008 study
showed that people exposed to mobile radiation took longer to fall asleep and spent less time in deep
sleep. "The study indicates that during laboratory exposure to 884 MHz wireless signals,
components of sleep believed to be important for recovery from daily wear and tear are severely
affected," the study concluded.
A quarter of young people feel like they must be available by phone around the clock, according to
a Swedish study that linked heavy cellphone use to sleeping problems, stress and
depression. Unreturned messages carry more guilt when the technology to deal with them lies at our
fingertips. Some teens even return text messages at midnight.
Most of us choose not to set limits on our nighttime availability. Nearly three quarters of people
from the age of 18 to 44 sleep with their phones within reach, according to a 2012 Time poll. That
number falls off slightly in middle age, but only people aged 65 and older are leaving the phone in
another room as common as sleeping right next to it.
12. Why did the author's boss start to enjoy sleeping? ______
A. Her friends encouraged her to sleep on time.
B. Mobile phones couldn't wake her up on time.
C. Her friends sent her a lovely clock to wake her up.
D. She got hurt due to working too late.
13. Why did the author's boss give her friends alarm clocks as Christmas gifts? ______
A. Alarm clocks don't give off any radiation.
B. Alarm clocks are better at waking her friends up.
C. She advised them to replace phones with alarm clocks.
D. She used alarm clocks to remind them not to work too late.
14. What can we learn from the 2008 study? ______
A. Mobile radiation makes people unable to fall asleep.
B. Mobile phones can release 884 MHz wired signals.
C. Sleep can help people fight against radiation.
D. Components of sleep can be seriously affected by wireless signals.
15. What is the best title for the passage? ______
A. How Mobile Phones Affect Sleep
B. Why Alarm Clocks Are Better than Phones
C. How we can sleep better at night
D. How Mobile Phones Affect Health
二、阅读七选五(本大题共 5 小题,共 10.0 分)
How to Rent Your House Before handing the keys to your house over to a complete stranger for care,
there are decisions you need to make. In fact, the decisions you make now, before searching for
a tenant (房客), will make the biggest impact on the success of your rental. (1)
What Condition Do You Want Your House in?
There is no end to the amount of improving you can do to your house before renting it out. (2)
When is good enough, good enough?
A house should be clean, empty (unless you are offering it "furnished", which is uncommon)
and free from any major repairs at the time the tenant moves in.
Remember, the home does not need to be as fancy as you would want it to be. (3) Tenants will
generally never take as good care of your house as you do-so don't spend too much time or money
making unnecessary upgrades that will only be ignored or broken.
Should You Use a Property Manager?
(4) If you have the time, abilities, and energy to manage yourself-you can save a good deal of
money by doing so. However, if you try to manage without the ability-it could end up costing you
much more than what a property manager might charge.
How Much Can You Rent Your House for?
Luckily, discovering what the monthly rent will bear for your house is not difficult.(5) In business,
market research means to get out there and find out what others in your industry are charging;
learning how much to charge for rent is no different. Your house will generally rent for about the
same amount as other properties that are of similar location, size and condition.
A. The problem becomes learning when to stop.
B. No one wants to be a landlord with those problems.
C. The following are some questions to answer before you rent out you house.
D. Have a professional carpet cleaner clean the carpets before showing the property.
E. Look around at other rentals in your area and try to see what the typical quality is.
F. The best way to determine how much your house will rent for is to simply do market research.
G. The decision about whether to manage yourself or hire a property manager cannot be made by
anyone other than you.

在做完形填空时,首先需要快速的浏览全文,把握文章的主旨大意;其次要学会带着问题到
文中相应的地方,通过细节阅读来寻找或概括答案;最后理清作者的写作思路也非常重要;
做此类题时,要多注意一些形容词或动词的搭配,在平时多积累一些固定搭配.
41.【答案】
【小题 1】an 【小题 2】
trying
【小题 3】
offered
【小题 4】
assistance 【小题 5】settled
【小题 6】
seats 【小题 7】hers 【小题 8】where 【小题 9】as 【小题 10】to
connect
【解析】1. an.考查冠词.lady 是可数名词,单数形式前加不定冠词 a 表示泛指,因 elderly
读音以发元音开头,用不定冠词 an. 故填 an.
2. trying.考查动名词.have trouble (in) doing sth.表示"做某事有困难",是固定搭配.故
填 trying.
3.offered.考查动词时态.此处讲述的是过去的事情,要用一般过去时态.故填 offered.
4. assistance.考查名词.needed 是及物动词,后接名词作宾语.assistance 是不可数名词.故
填 assistance.
5. settled.考查过去分词.此处"get+过去分词"结构,get 相当于 become(即系动词)的意思,
后面的过去分词属形容词范畴(即形容词化的过去分词).故填 settled.
6. seats.考查名词复数.seat 是可数名词,根据上下文语境要用复数形式.故填 seats.
7. hers.考查代词.为了避免重复 forms,hers=her forms.故填 hers.
8. where.考查定语从句.分析句子结构可知这是一个定语从句,先行词 gate 在从句中作地
点状语,用关系副词 where.故填 where.
9. as.考查介词.see …as 意为"把…看作 ",是固定搭配.故填 as.
10. to connect.考查动词不定式.此处动词不定式表示目的,作目的状语.故填
to connect.

详解:
1. south 改为 southern,考查形容词,修饰名词,所以用形容词.
2. because 后面加 of,考查词义辨析,because 为连词,后跟句子,because of 后跟名词.
3. locally 改为 local,考查形容词,修饰名词,所以用形容词.
4. him 改为 them,考查人称代词,指代前面的 photographers,作宾语,所以用 them.
5.去掉 back,考查固定搭配,return 表示"come back / give back",所以不再用 back.
6. doors 改为 door,考查名词的数,指一个摄影师的门,所以用单数名词.
7. climbing 改为 climbed,考查时态,和 bought,crossed 并列作谓语,所以用过去式.
8. was 改为 were,考查主谓一致,主语为复数名词,所以用 were 作谓语.
9. but 改为 and,考查连词,前后句意是并列关系,所以用 and..
10. moving 改为 moved,考查词义辨析,moving"令人感动的";moved 指人"感动的".

的诚实去了那里.
1 先通读全文.认真阅读短文,在做题之前确保已经弄清原文大意.注意文章中上下文的逻辑
关系是否正确,时态、人称、主谓、指代等是否一致.
2.聚焦出题热点、综合运用所学语言知识,分句(注意以句子为单位而不是以行为单位)对
不同的错误情况进行分析和回答(即改词、加词或减词).
3.再次通读全文,校对自己的改正是否正确.一般各种改错的方式都应该用到,如果出现了
某一种改法(如加词、减词等)没有用到,要考虑自己的改错应该有问题,要对刚才不是很
有把握的行进行推敲.在自己认为正确的行后划勾,并且校对其他行改正的符号是否准确,
大小写是否拼写正确(这点同学们很容易忽视).如果某一行有两种改错方式要推敲哪一种
是最佳改法.
