项涂黑。
A
A trip to London
My family had dreamed of a trip to London for a long time. Luckily it was possible for us to
realize our dream because all of us were free on the weekend.
We planned to drive into Cambridge and caught the 7: 34 train to Liverpool Street Station.
Then my wife and I would separate from Joan, my wife’s sister, to do different things and
finally meet again for lunch. And after lunch, we would go to the concert.
But we were late because of a thick London fog. The train had to move along so slowly that
it was not until 10:30 that it got there. In spite of our late arrival Joan decided that she would
go to see the Crown Jewels in the Tower of London while we went shopping. It was only after her
sister had disappeared into the fog that my wife realized that we hadn’t decided where we
should meet for lunch. Since I had our three tickets for the concert in my pocket, this was indeed
a problem. We didn’t have any mobile phones at that time. There seemed to be nothing we
could do except taking a taxi to the Tower of London, and try to find her there. Needless to say,
we didn’t find her.
It was now one o’clock, and the concert began at 2: 30. “Perhaps she will think of waiting
outside the concert hall,” said my wife hopefully. By this time the fog was so thick that road
traffic had to stop, and the only way to get there was by subway. Hand in hand we felt our way
along the road to where we thought the nearest station should be. An hour later we were still
trying to find it.Just when I was about to become angry, we met a blind man tapping his way
confidently through the fog. With his help we found the subway station which was just fifty
,meters down the road.
By now it was far too late to get to the concert hall before the performance began at 2: 30,
so we decided to return to Cambridge. It took seven hours instead of the usual two to make that
journey. Nor were we able to get any food and drink on the train. We were tired and hungry.
We finally reached home at ten. Opening the door we were amazed to find Joan at home; she
had seen the Crown Jewels, had managed to get another ticket for concert, and had had a
wonderful dinner at a restaurant. Of course, she managed to get home, too. Oh my god!
31. What did the writer plan to do after lunch that day?
A. Go to the concert. B. Return to Cambridge.
C. Go shopping. D. See the Crown Jewels.
32. The writer and his wife separated from Joan because _______.
A. they were late for the concert
B. Joan didn’t want to go to the concert
C. there was a thick fog
D. they planned to do different things until lunch time
33. Who helped the writer find the subway station?
A. A taxi driver. B. A blind man.
C. His wife. D. Joan.
B
Cory Nichols’ whole life changed after he watched the documentary (纪录片) Hard Times:
Lost on Long Island. This documentary follows four different families over six months as they
struggle with unemployment. Cory knew he had to help any way that he could.
He founded an organization named “C the Difference”. The first step of his charity was to
advertise. Using his own money, Cory had orange bracelets (手链) made. Now, he has sold the
bracelets. A lot of people who are willing to donate bought them. “We’ve gotten donations
from $5 to $500,” Cory said. “Every dollar really helps.”
Since founding the organization “C the Difference”, Cory has gotten the word out
through e-mail and social media. He has managed to get upwards of $7,500, and the amount will
keep rising each month. For Cory, his work is truly rewarding, and he loves knowing that people less fortunate than him are really benefiting from all the donations. Once he said, “I was in the
pantry (食品室) one time when a woman was taking food, and she was grateful for what I was
doing. That made me feel great.”
Cory’s work has been truly remarkable. These past years he was recognized for “C the
Difference” and was a recipient (获得者) of the New York State Prudential Spirit of Community
Award. Cory was honored when he found out the news, and even more shocked when he found
out that he was one of only 102 winners out of the 28,000 applicants. As a recipient, Cory got to
travel to Washington D.C. with the other winners.
There are bright things in Cory’s future. First, he wants to keep doing well in school. “I
think school is really important to be successful in life.” In addition, Cory wants to keep “C the
Difference” going through high school. “I am continuing to get donations, and to get younger
kids and my peers involved to help each month.”
34. After watching the documentary, Cory ________.
A. set up a charity organization B. found a job in Long Island
C. donated money immediately D. felt the documentary interesting
35. Cory tried to raise enough money by ________.
A. wearing a ring and a bracelet B. phoning to his friends
C. spreading the word out D. collecting from his classmates
36. Cory felt ________ after he knew he was given an award.
A. embarrassed and surprised
B. interested and delighted
C. honored and shocked
D. ashamed and frightened
37. We can infer from the passage that Cory will ________.
A. travel in Long Island alone B. stop raising money
C. study in Washington D. go on his charity
C
Why is poverty so difficult to overcome? Why are poorer people less likely to invest in their own
learning and ability development, but more likely to be addicted to television and video games?In the past, a poor person was normally considered to have bad character or have no ambition.
Banerjee corrects such views and explains the economics behind the poor. Poor people tend to
live with more worries in their lives, he said, so they need tools such as televisions, cell phones,
junk food and video games to relieve worries more than others. But investment in learning often
takes a long time to get rewards, while the poor are often impatient due to economic reasons,
and their life in the meantime is getting more worrisome and boring.
That goes for health. Banerjee and his wife find that the poor spend the same amount of money
and time, or even more on health and medical care than the middle class group, but they tend to
get bad effects. The reason is that the poor often lack the essential medical and healthy
knowledge and they tend to get medical treatment when the disease has worsened to a certain
stage. Besides, they tend to trust the doctors who “give strong medicine” because they
believe such doctors are the “good” ones. But in fact, “strong medicine” always leads to
resistance to drugs and overtreatment. This kind of attitude, which emphasizes treatment rather
than early prevention, has brought many poor people more economic stress and physical
damage, and even has affected the education of their next generation. According to the study,
children in poorer physical condition tend to spend less time in school and have lower incomes
after graduation, so poverty gets “inherited”.
When it comes to finance, Banerjee's research has found that the poor often need to borrow
little and short-term loans while paying extremely high interest rates. It is also because the poor
tend to take higher financial risks ----they often have unstable incomes and are unable to get
working capital from banks, so they rely more on these high-interest loans. And these small loans
put a brake on their savings against risks.
How could the poor step into the middle class? Maybe starting a business is a way out. But for
the extremely poor, it's impossible to get the capital they need to start a business. In most cases,
a more practical option is getting a job in government agencies because comparatively speaking,
government jobs are very stable, which give the poor the opportunities to be hired for the long
term, to increase the range of their thinking and thus enabling families to move from poverty to
the middle class.
Banerjee's research provides a new perspective for governments to understand poverty, so that
policies can be tailored to decrease poverty and ultimately eliminate(消除) it.38. How do the poor deal with the issue of health?
A. They spend less money in preventing disease.
B. They focus more on the diseases than early prevention.
C. They usually think it essential to resist strong medicine.
D. They are willing to get free medical treatment from the government.
39. From the underlined sentence, we can learn that_______.
A. poverty is produced by the poor
B. poverty is passed down by their parents
C. poverty has some bad effects on the poor
D. poverty causes people to bear more economic stress
40. Banerjee considers it difficult to overcome poverty because________.
A. the poor have bad character or have no ambition
B the poor prefer to invest in business rather than work
C. the government hasn’t taken proper and effective measure
D. the poor were troubled by their lives, health and finance
41. What can we learn from the passage?
A. The poor have attached importance to education.
B. The government can’t provide the jobs for the poor.
C. All the poor need to start a business for their survival.
D. Banerjee's research is helpful for the government to rid of poverty.
D
Fact or Fiction?
Non-fiction can be broken down into many categories. One category is literary non-fiction,
which is still based in fact but employs some of the storytelling elements that fiction uses.
Literary non-fiction includes a type of autobiography(自传) called memoir. Memoir most often
focuses on a certain period of the author’s life. It is, by definition, rooted in truth. Still, people
sometimes question whether memoir should be categorized as non-fiction at all.
As non-fiction, memoir is intended to be factual. Is this really the case, though, considering
memoir relies on human memory? One classic study, led by psychologist Elizabeth Loftus,
.showed how easily an interviewer’s choice of wording can influence an eyewitness’s account
of a traffic accident. It is therefore reasonable to wonder whether memoir should continue to be
branded as non-fiction.
Certainly, human memory can be unreliable. However, a memoir author is
undoubtedly writing about significant and impactful life events. Memories of such events are
actually more reliable than others. Studies show that the more influential an event is, the more
accurately people recall the details. As an emotionally charged event unfolds, the brain activity
changes in a way that amplifies small details. This activity helps build a more precise and
accurate memory.
Of course the brain is not a camera that can “save” any memory with perfect accuracy.
But if memoir is questionable due to the imperfections of the human mind, then critics will have
to tackle non-fiction more broadly. All writers are using their memories when they create, and
moreover, they are relying on the memories of others. Journalists conduct interviews to tell a
news story and history writers depend on the accuracy of accounts from long ago. Yet they all
rightfully fall under the umbrella of non-fiction.
Some people may doubt memoir not because they mistrust human memory, but because
they mistrust the author’s morality. Critics may suspect an author of making up events.
However, there is no reason to be suspicious of memoir author’s intentions. Writing a factual
memoir that appeals to readers has the potential to be profitable for the author, and there is no
motivation for a memoir writer to knowingly change or beautify the truth.
Looking beyond the author’s own life events, memoir can inform readers about the world
in the same way that other non-fiction can. Memoir has a way of relaying facts about anything
from an occupation to brief fashion trends, all of it meaningful to the author.
42. The author introduces the topic in Paragraph 1 by _____ .
A. illustrating why it is important to talk about memoir
B. listing some interesting facts and features of memoir
C. defining key terms that are discussed later in the passage
D. making a comparison between autobiography and memoir
43. What does the underlined word “amplifies” in Paragraph 3 probably mean?
A. Collects. B. Ignores.C. Enlarges. D. Absorbs.
44. We can learn from the passage that _____.
A. critics argue that a news story by a journalist is fiction
B. a memoir author’s memory can be influenced by the interviewees
C. memoir can’t show readers facts about what an author experienced
D. emotional moments can cause the creation of more detailed memories
45. According to the passage, the author believes _____.
A. the most profitable memoirs are those shown to be the most factual
B. many authors are untrustworthy, although many memoirs are fact-based
C. memoir is rightfully categorized under the umbrella of literary non-fiction
D. memory is too unreliable for memoir to be considered a type of non-fiction

The World Water Day has been celebrated annually on 22 March since1992. Each year has a
different theme, looking at things like the role of clean water in the world of work, ways to stop
wasting water, finding ways to supply water to underprivileged groups and so on.
___46___But it is also vital for sanitation(卫生). It is estimated that more than 700 children
under the age of seven die every day from illnesses linked to unsafe water and poor sanitation.
The right to water and sanitation was recognized as a human right. ___47___ These include rural
communities, people who have been displaced due to war and local conflicts and areas where
climate change is making water more and more scarcer.
Apart from the obvious health issues, a lack of accessible clean water means that people –
often women and children – spend hours every day walking to and from distant water supplies.
This means they don’t have time to dedicate to work, studies and other domestic duties.
___48___And people who are not able to walk to get their own water are particularly vulnerable.
There are many charities working on creating sustainable supplies of clean water for different
communities around the world. ___49___But the fundamental problem of increasing demand
for a limited resource can only be addressed by more efficient use of water, especially in industry and agriculture. Waste-water recycling, capturing rainwater, more efficient irrigation techniques
and reforestation are all examples of how water can be used more efficiently.
___50___We should support charities, raise awareness, take part in the World Water Day
events that are happening all around the world and, of course, be careful with how we use water
in our own lives. Visit the UN World Water Day website to find out about an event near us.
Follow world water day on social media and help spread the word about this incredibly
important issue.
A. Clean drinking water is fundamental.
B. As individuals, what can we do to help the issue?
C. The search for water becomes their main occupation.
D. This important work needs to continue and to expand.
E. Every living cell in the body needs water to keep functioning.
F. In normal conditions, the human body can only survive three or four days without water.
G. However, there are still at least 2.1 billion people around the world living without safe water.

Last week, an activity called “Beijing opera entering Campus” was held in our school.
In the morning, two famous artists came to our school as planned. When they came into the
room, we clapped warmly. After a casual chatting, the artists were invited to the hall to give us a
detailed introduction to the Beijing opera. With great expectation, we listened attentively and
learned that there are five main roles in Beijing opera, and the facial mask on each of them tells
the characteristics of the role. To help us better understand Beijing opera, the artist also showed
us several classic examples of singing and acting.
After the lecture, we couldn’t wait to start the following training sessions. One artist
showed us how to paint the facial mask on our face, and the other taught us the typical moves
step by step. Under the patient guidance of the artists, we learned the basic skills and developed
strong interest. After several rehearsals, we were ready to stage a scene from “Journey to the
West”. On the performing day, with excitement and nervousness, I played Sun Wukong with the lady artist. To our great delight, our performance won the applause of our schoolmates.
Through this activity, I’ve found Beijing opera appealing and learned it must take a long and
hard training to become a good performer. I am expecting to spread Beijing opera to more
audience.
