第一节(共15小题;每小题2.5分,满分37.5分)
阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中,选出最佳选项。
A
My mother, a nurse at Stony Brook University Hospital, worked at night so that she could come home in time to send me to school. She'd sleep during the day and be ready when we returned home before heading out again in the evening. This went on for 23 years. She never complained (抱怨). No matter how tired she was, she always had enough energy to be my mom.
She often had to work on holidays, even on New Year's Eve, which made me unhappy. However, before holidays she always decorated the inside and outside of our house. She'd also have cookies baking in the oven, a holidaythemed movie in the VCR, and music playing throughout our house for us. But when it was time to go to work, there was no room for debate. “Why do you have
to work on this day of all days?”I'd ask sadly. “They need me, too, dear son,” she'd say.
For a long time I didn't understand why she should care so much about those sick strangers. Recently, as my grandmother became ill, I found myself spending more time in the hospital. The scenes I saw in the hospital made me see the different side of my mother. The nurses checked the heart, blood and oxygen levels to make sure patients were comfortable. They lifted patients in and out of bed and helped them to the bathroom. Beyond their duties, the nurses showed consideration(体贴) for each patient.
What I saw helped me understand why my mother was devoted to her occupation (职业). I was filled with more admiration for my mother.
21.Why did the author's mother work in the evening?
A.To take him to school.
B.To enjoy a movie.
C.To decorate their house.
D.To sleep during the day.
22.What can be inferred from Paragraph 2?
A.The mother loved her patients more than her son.
B.Nurses are paid double salary working on holidays.
C.The author wished his mother could stay home on holidays.
D.Only people with mercy on patients would make good nurses.
23.How did the author really understand his mother's work?
A.When he asked his mother to stay with him during holidays.
B.When he looked after his sick grandma in hospital.
C.When he saw how tired his mother was after work.
D.When he helped patients to the bathroom.
B
Since his students began using Quizlet, English teacher Tristan Thorne has noticed an improvement in their ability to learn and use new words. Quizlet is a learning app, a computer program you use on your mobile phone. It can help users build and test their knowledge of English words. Quizlet has words set for millions of subjects. And, it is quickly becoming a useful mobile tool for language learners.
Thorne teaches at Columbia University in New York City. Thanks to learning apps, Jeff Strack, another English teacher, has also noticed the improvement in his students' ability to remember information. He teaches at Hostos Community College, also in New York. He and Thorne are part of a growing number of language educators adding mobile apps to their classes.
Strack and Thorne seem to agree that the days when teachers would not permit (允许) the use of mobile phones are gone. When they use apps, language learners communicate more differently than in a traditional classroom. Users act on or respond to something, instead of just listening to new information.
Thorne believes that apps can help learners become more active in learning. For example, each week, his students are required to add vocabularies into Quizlet for others to use. He says some apps also make it easy for students to know their language strengths and weaknesses.
The biggest improvement Strack has seen in his students is that they are much more active in wholeclass or smallgroup discussions. “Apps let all students take part in the activity, whether it's a game, quiz or practice activity,” he says.
Many existing learning apps are designed for students of all ages and levels. Some are designed for group activities. Some support independent learning. Still some are good for homework. Thorne says he especially likes Quizlet and three other apps: QR Codes, Socrative and Evernote.
24.What do Strack and Thorne do to improve their teaching?
A.They design learning apps for their students.
B.They don't allow their students to use apps after class.
C.They allow their students to use mobile apps to study.
D.They order their students not to use mobile phones in class.
25.According to the text, how do the apps help the language learners?
A.They help language learners take an active part in learning.
B.They help language learners save much time and money.
C.They help language learners remember their weaknesses.
D.They help language learners improve personal designing skills.
26.What can we learn about the existing learning apps?
A.They have three types in total.
B.They are too few to choose from.
C.They are only designed for homework.
D.They are designed for different uses.
27.What can be the best title for the text?
A.Great Changes in Science and Technology
B.The Use of Mobile Phones Will Be Gone
C.Ways to Choose from Different Mobile Apps
D.Better Language Learning with Mobile Apps
C
In order to achieve in math, science, English, history, geography, and other subjects, reading skills must be developed when the students are young. Students cannot struggle with word recognition (识别) when they should be reading quickly for understanding of a text.
Since reading is very important to success in school, parents can and should play a role in helping their children become interested in reading and in encouraging their growth in reading skills.
Research shows that children learn about reading before they enter school. In fact, they learn in the best way—through observation. Young children, for example, see people around them reading newspapers, books, maps, and signs.
Parents can do a lot to cultivate an understanding of print by talking with their preschoolers about signs in their environment and by letting their children know they enjoy reading themselves. When reading to your preschooler, you should run your index finger under the line of print. This process is simple and helps children begin to notice words and that words have meaning. They also develop habits of reading.
In the early elementary years, from first through third grades, children continue learning how to read. It is a complex process (过程), difficult for some and easy for others. Care must be taken during these early years not to put too much stress on the learningtoread process.
Reading for pleasure and information develops reading interests and offers children the chance to practise their reading skills in meaningful ways. Parents of preschoolers should provide reading materials in the home that arouse curiosity or extend their children's natural interest in the world around them.
By encouraging reading in free time, parents take the most important step in improving their children's reading development.
28.What can we conclude from the passage?
A.It is important to develop children's reading ability.
B.Parents should care for their children's studies.
C.It is common for students to ignore their reading habit.
D.Schools should pay more attention to children's reading.
29.What should parents do to help their children build up their reading ability?
A.They should encourage their children to read every day.
B.They should teach their children to read as quickly as possible.
C.They should take great interest in reading by themselves.
D.They should provide financial support for their children.
30.What does the underlined word “cultivate” mean in Paragraph 4 ?
A.Prevent. B.Develop.
C.Discuss. D.Practise.
31.What should a parent not do when teaching his child?
A.Find proper reading materials.
B.Encourage his child to read more at home.
C.Help develop his child's interests.
D.Stress the learningtoread process more.
D
Parents can cut the chances of their children getting fat simply by keeping them longer at table. Just three minutes extra at a family mealtime could help prevent child obesity. Research found that among poor families, the extra minutes at mealtimes made great improvement of a normal weight for the youth. The factors are likely to be communication and the importance of a scheduled mealtime.
Dr Barbara Fiese said,“Children, whose families have a 20minute meal over four times a week,weigh less than kids who leave the table after 15 to 17 minutes. Over time, those extra minutes per meal add up and become really powerful.”
The researchers studied 200 family mealtimes,testing the effects of factors and mealtime behavior of families with children in primary school. They found that families, who said that shared mealtimes were an important part of family life and had special meaning for them,were less likely to have an obese child. Similarly, families, who talked more together and interacted more positively during the meal,were more likely to have healthyweight children.
Teaching lowincome families how to make the most of family mealtimes was a wise idea. Dr Fiese said, “This is something we can target and teach.” She added, “It's also important to recognize the increasing differences of families and their sometimes complex living arrangements that may challenge their abilities to plan ahead and arrange a single time to communicate with each other.”
Families in poorer US neighborhoods faced a lot of problems,including poor access to healthy food. But even so, regular high quality family mealtimes made a difference to the children's weight. Dr Fiese said,“Three to four extra minutes per meal will make a healthy weight more possible.”
32.According to the passage, to have a healthyweight child, parents should ________.
A.limit the food for each meal
B.increase their eating time
C.shorten the mealtime
D.make them eat healthy food
33.How much time is reasonable for one meal according to the passage?
A.About 15 minutes. B.About 17 minutes.
C.About 20 minutes. D.About 30 minutes.
34.Why does a longer mealtime make a difference to a normal weight?
A.Because people can have a good rest as they eat meals.
B.Because people can have time to choose what they like.
C.Because people can use mealtimes to do other things.
D.Because people can communicate more in the scheduled time
35.What does Dr Fiese suggest to us?
A.Parents should not communicate during mealtime.
B.It's better to add three to four extra minutes to one meal.
C.Four meals a day will make a difference to the children's weight.
D.Twenty extra minutes per meal make a healthy weight.

How to Be a Good Listener
Being a good listener can help you see the world through the eyes of others. It enriches your understanding and expands your capacity for empathy (同情). Good listening skills can provide you with a deeper level of understanding about someone's situation.__36__
1. Place yourself in other people's shoes. It's easy to only consider the impact of the other
person's “telling” on you. But you must open out and look at the problems from the other person's view. __37__
2. Avoid comparing the person's experiences to your own. You may think that the best thing you can do to really listen is to compare the person's experiences to your own. But this type of thinking actually makes the person feel like you're not really listening at all. __38__ That means that you're focusing more on yourself than on the person's situation.
3.__39__ Some people think that, when they're listening, they should find a quick and easy solution to the person's problem. According to the research, it is totally wrong to do so. Instead focus on absorbing(理解) everything the person is saying to you. Only after that can you really try to help.
4. Know what not to do. Knowing what to avoid when you're trying to be a good listener can be almost as helpful as knowing what to do. If you want the speaker to take you seriously you'd better not interrupt in the middle of a point. __40__ Make eye contact with the person so that the person realizes that you are interested and are listening.
A.Don't try to help immediately.
B.Avoid saying “I” or “me” a lot.
C.Try to solve the person's problem quickly.
D.Don't try to change the subject, even if it's a little uncomfortable.
E.If so, you would see your way through the problems much faster.
F.Therefore you had better listen to what the person is saying carefully.
G.If you want to know how to be a good listener, read on to get started!

Dear Tom,
I'm more than delighted to tell you that to promote traditional opera in schools, the city theatre will provide an opera for us students to watch for free. Knowing that you are interested in Peking Opera, I'm writing to invite you to watch it with me.
The traditional opera called Farewell My Concubine will be performed at the hall of the city theatre at 7: 00 p.m. on December 20th. Meanwhile, some famous Peking Opera performers coming from Beijing will join in the performance, which will surely make the audience excited.
I'm certain not only will it be a real feast for you but can help you better understand Peking Opera. It is such a good opportunity that you shall never miss it.
I would be quite pleased if you could accept my invitation and come.
Yours,
Li Hua
第二节
参考范文:
Paragraph 1:
Why did Mrs Brown say her husband was really clever? Because she found that he had written a notice which looked exactly like a police_notice. He made a_blue_board_with_white_letters on it,but it was not a real one. Being_afraid_of_going_to_prison,_Mr Brown certainly dared_not use the word “police”, but he used “polite notice” instead of “police notice”. He was quite clever,wasn't he?
Paragraph 2:
If the police discovered that the Browns were using a police notice, they would feel angry and punish them. It was a crime because they offended the police, passing himself off as a policeman. But Mr Brown would remain very calm and ask the policemen to look at the board carefully. The policemen would burst out laughing when they realized what had happened.
