II.阅读(共两节,满分50分)

第一节:阅读理解(共20小题;每小题2分,满分40分)

阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C和D项中,选出最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

A

Speed-reading is an indispensable skill in the Internet age. We skim over articles, e-mails and tweets to try to grasp key words and the essential meaning of a certain text. Bombarded with information from our electronic devices, it would be impossible to cope(应付)if we read word by word, line by line.

But a new trend calls on people to unplug and enjoy reading slowly, listing benefits beyond intellectual stimulation.

A recent story from The Wall Street Journal reported on a book club in Wellington, New Zealand, where members meet in a cafe and turn off their smart phones. They sink into cozy chairs and read in silence for an hour.

Unlike traditional book clubs, the point of the Slow Reading Club isn’t exchanging ideas about a

certain book, but to get away from electronic devices and read in a quiet, relaxed environment. According to the Journal, the Wellington book club is just one example of a movement initiated (发起) by book lovers who miss the old-fashioned way of reading before the Internet and smart phones.

Slow readers, such as The Atlantic’s Maura Kelly, say a regular reading habit sharpens the mind, improves concentration, reduces stress levels and deepens the ability to empathize.

Some of these benefits have been backed up by science. For example, a study of 300 elderly people published by the journal Neurology last year showed that regular engagement in intellectually strenuous activities like reading slowed the rate of memory loss later in life.

Slow reading means a return to an uninterrupted pattern in a quiet environment free of distractions. “Aim for 30 minutes a day,” advises Kelly from The Atlantic. “You can squeeze in that half hour pretty easily if only during your free moments – whenever you find yourself automatically firing up your laptop to check your favorite site, or scanning Twitter for something to pass the time – you pick up a meaningful work of literature,” Kelly said. “Reach for your e-reader, if you like. Kindles make books like War and Peace less heavy, not less substantive(真实的), and also ensure you’ll never lose your place.”

B

The best selling children’s book, Pipilu Sending You 100 Lives, has been adapted into a homonymous play that will be put on for the first time next March and tour around 50 cities in China.

The book was adapted by the Hangzhou based Star Dream Factory.

“We don’t want to descend to the average children’s dramas that are overly eager to please the kids,” said Huang Qin, director of Star Dream Factory. “We want to provide something practically useful and mystically entertaining.”

The original book by Chinese children’s book writer Zheng Yuanjie focuses on safety tips for kids. With Zheng’s usual and simplicity, the book avoids sugar-coating reality. Instead, it illustrates the potential dangers in everyday life and provides possible solutions.

Zheng recalled that when he saw his new-born baby in the hospital, the first thought that hit him was to do his utmost to guarantee his son’s safety.

“Safety is of the greatest importance to a human being,” said Zheng. “If the person is gone, nothing else will matter.”

According to Zheng, there is no preaching or soapboxing in his book. He said that he just wanted to

talk and tell the plain truth to the children in an easily understandable way.

This line of thought will be echoed in the theatrical reproduction, said director Guo Yan. She also said that the play will place emphasis on multimedia effects and the interaction with the families.

“Theatre may not ensure the children a path to professional esteem and better jobs in society, but it does have the power to give them strength (at heart),” said Huang Qin.

Huang also calls for consistent attention to child safety, pointing out the lack of universal education and effective legal channels.

The show is expecting an estimated audience of more than 100,000 people during its domestic tour in the upcoming year.

C

People with mentally taxing jobs, including lawyers and graphic designers, may end up having better memory in old age, research suggests.

A study of more than 1,000 Scottish 70-year-olds found that those who had had complex jobs scored better on memory and thinking tests.

One theory is that a more stimulating environment helps build up a “cognitive reserve” to help buffer the brain against age-related decline. The research was reported in Neurology.

The team, from Heriot-Watt University, in Edinburgh, is now planning more work to look at how lifestyle and work interact to affect memory loss. Those taking part in the study took tests designed to assess memory, processing speed and general thinking ability, as well as filling in a questionnaire about their working life.

The analysis showed that those whose jobs had required complex skills in dealing with data or people, such as management and teaching, had better scores on memory and thinking tests than those who had done less mentally intense jobs such as factory workers, bookbinders, or carpet layers.

While the study did not look at biological reasons for the protective effect of certain jobs, potential explanations include that structural changes within the brain mean less damage is accumulated over time.

Study leader Dr Alan Gow said: “Our findings have helped to identify the kinds of job demands that preserve memory and thinking later on.” “However,” He added, “while it is true that people who have higher cognitive abilities are more likely to get more complex jobs, there still seems to be a small

advantage gained from these complex jobs for later thinking skills.”

Dr Simon Ridley, head of research at Alzheimer’s Research UK, said the study added to the growing evidence about factors that affected brain health as we aged.

“Keeping the brain active throughout life could be helpful and different types of work may play a role. However, it’s important to note that this study points to a small and subtle association between occupation and later-life cognition rather than offering proof that people’s occupation has a direct influence.”

36. According to the research, who may have the best memory in old age?

A. Taxi drivers. B. Computer programmers.

C. Supermarket cashiers. D. Motor mechanics.

37. Which of the following about the research work is TRUE?

A. The research team studied both environmental and biological factors.

B. The researchers filled in a questionnaire about their working life.

C. The research objects included people from various jobs and of different ages.

D. The research is helpful to the study of brain health and is still under way.

38. What Dr Alan Gow said implies that __________.

A. their findings are helpful to identifying the kinds of job demands

B. people who do more complex jobs may benefit later thinking skills greatly

C. there exist links between job demands and preservation of memory

D. he didn’t confirm the links between complex jobs and later thinking skills

39. We can learn from Dr Simon Ridley that __________.

A. different occupations may make a difference in keeping the brain active

B. people’s occupation has a direct influence on later-life cognition

C. the study added more evidence about the factors affecting aging

D. the study denied the association between jobs and later-life memory

40. What is the best title of the passage?

A. Aging affects brain health B. Complex jobs may protect memory

C. Occupations influence aging D. Complex jobs demand complex skills

D

A third of 15 to 18-year-olds in the UK have met someone in person they originally met through social media.

The figure comes from an exclusive online Newsbeat poll(投票) of 1,015 British teenagers, put together by Comres. The survey also indicates that a quarter feel happier online than they do in real life.

But overall, real-life relationships are still considered far more important than online ones, according to the findings. Sixty-six per cent polled last month said the number of friends they knew in person was more important to them, compared to 28% who said the same of the number of friends and followers they had online.

The survey also suggests what lots of people know already, that social media is now an integral part of teenagers’ lives. Only one per cent of said they never checked in online for social reasons. Facebook is the most popular social network (89% have an account), followed by Twitter (62%) and Snapchat (58%).

Dr Emma Short, a psychologist at the University of Bedfordshire, said, “The number of teenagers meeting up with people they first befriended online is worrying. Even very sophisticated security experts find it very hard to verify the identity of accounts. When you’re 15 and you’re very effective at identifying friends and risk, it’s easy to assume you can do that online. It’s not safe in that they may not be who they say they are and you know nothing about them apart from the conversation you’ve had online – which is a very small part of their lives and the person they may be.”

A

I wasn’t surprised when I read that actress Helen Hunt recently stated that she would never allow her young daughter to become a child star. Ms Hunt is the daughter of a Hollywood technical director, and grew up in Hollywood. Now in her late 40s, she started acting and modeling when she was eight and has probably seen a lot over those years in show business.

She has had a successful career. She earned four Golden Globes and four Emmys. She also attained the top honor of her profession when she won the Best Actress Academy Award for her role in the 1992 movie, As Good As It Gets. Given those accolades, Ms Hunt is successful. There is no doubt that her early experiences as a child star prepared her for what has been an outstanding adult career. Given those achievements, why would this star declare she’ll never allow her daughter, now at the age of six, to follow in her footsteps?

Everyone familiar with the entertainment scene is aware of the reasons for her attitude. Recent tabloid (小报) news headlines featuring the troubles of former child stars, among them Lindsay Lohan, Britney Spears and the late Gary Coleman, may answer the question. Although Ms Hunt managed to become a successful grown-up star, she apparently believes she’s an exception.

What Ms Hunt may be suggesting is that many very young stars go through unnatural childhoods on movie and TV sets. While they’re earning big incomes, they’re so pampered (纵容) by directors and praised by fans; they may get false impressions that their lives will always be that way. Then, within a few years, when faced with reality, they’re hurt and confused. After all the overwhelming affection, they find they can’t deal with the problems. That’s often when drugs and alcohol take over their lives.

Helen Hunt has some other reasons why she doesn’t want her daughter to be in the entertainment business. Many child stars can never make a successful transition to meaningful adulthood. However, as with many Hollywood movies, I believe there are both good and bad scenes about how it can be played out in real life.

26. According to the passage, Ms Hunt _________.

A. started acting and modeling when she was a little girl

B. has been acting for about 30 years

C. is the daughter of a famous actor

D. started singing when she was eight

27. The underlined word “accolades” in Paragraph 2 probably means “_________”.

A. difficulties B. awards C. salaries D. opinions

28. The author thinks Helen Hunt’s success is mainly due to _________.

A. her hard work B. the help of a technical director

C. her experiences as a child star D. her talent and good luck

29. Helen Hunt wouldn’t allow her daughter to become a child star because she thinks _________.

A. child stars often take drugs and alcohol B. being a child star may ruin her future

C. child stars aren’t able to solve their problems D. it is difficult to succeed as a child actor

30. From the passage we can conclude that _________.

A. few child stars will succeed in the future

B. there is no way to save the entertainment business

C. the author has a different opinion about child stars

D. meaningful adulthood only belongs to non-child stars

B

The computer keyboard helped kill shorthand—a system of rapid handwriting, and now it’s threatening to finish off handwriting as a whole. When handwritten essays were introduced on the SAT exams for the class of 2012, just 15% of the most 1.5 million students wrote their answers in cursive(草写字母). The rest? Block letters.

And those college hopefuls are just the first edge of a wave of US students who no longer get much handwriting instructions in the primary grades, frequently 10 minutes a day or less. As a result, more and more students struggle to read and write cursive.

There are those who say the culture is at a crossing, turning from the written word to the typed one. If handwriting becomes a lost form of communication, does it matter?

It was at University Virginia that researchers recently discovered a previously unknown poem by Robert, written in his unique script. Handwritten documents are more valuable to researchers, historians say, because their authenticity(真实性) can be confirmed. Students also find them more fascinating.

The loss of handwriting also may be a cognitive(认知的) opportunity missed. Several academic studies have found that good handwriting skills at a young age can help children express their thoughts better—a lifelong benefit.

It doesn’t take much to teach better handwriting skills. At some schools in Prince George’s County, elementary school students use a program called Handwriting Without Tears for 15 minutes a day. They learn the correct formation of manuscript letters through second grade, and cursive letters in third grade.

There are always going to be some kids who struggle with handwriting because of their particular neurological(神经系统的) writing, learning issues or poor motor skills. Educators often point to this factor in support of keyboarding.

31. What is the author concerned about after 2012 Sat exams?

A. Keyboarding. B. Shorthand. C. Handwriting. D. Block letters.

32. A poem by Robert mentioned in the passage is used to ____________.

A. prove how valuable handwriting is B. explain what a famous poet he is

C. show how unique his poem is D. stress how fascinating the documents are

33. The example of Handwriting Without Tears helps to argue that _____________.

A. the schools are responsible for the loss of handwriting

B. the loss of handwriting is a cognitive opportunity missed

C. it doesn’t take much to teach better handwriting skills

D. the culture is turning from the written word to the typed one

34. According to the author, when is a perfect time to learn handwriting?

A. Kindergarten. B. Primary school.

C. High school. D. College.

35. What is the author’s attitude towards this debate?

A. Devotion. B. Encouragement. C. Critical. D. Objective.

C

It’s exciting to imagine how future humans will have solved the problems we have now, or what amazing new inventions will make our lives more convenient and interesting. We asked top scientists to share their predictions on what the world will be like in a century. If they’re right, the 2114 is going to be really cool.

Frank Wright probably is the greatest architect that the United States has ever produced. He had a natural ability to design buildings. His buildings were not only beautiful, but they were also functional. They fit their purposes very well. Wright’s churches, for example, make people feel like thinking and praying. His office buildings make people enjoy working, and his houses make people feel comfortable at home. However, Frank Wright’s beautiful, functional buildings are not the only reason that he is famous. There is another reason.

Frank Wright is called the greatest American architect because he started an American style in

architecture. Most of the architecture in the United States before Wright was really European, not American. Wright’s buildings do not like old European buildings. They have their own style. Wright’s ideas about style are still used in the United States and in other parts of the world.

The most important idea in Frank Wright’s style of architecture is that a building must fit its purpose

and the land around it. His houses are often called“grass-land houses”because their lines are similar to the lines on the grass-land. Both the lines of the grass-land and the lines of Wright’s house are parallel(平行)to the horizon(地平线), the place where earth and sky seem to meet. They are horizontal lines. Most European style houses, in contrast, have many vertical(垂直的)lines that form 90 angles with the

A

Fitzgerald, a very wealthy English man, had only one child, a son, who naturally was the apple of his eye. His wife died when the child was in his early teens. So Fitzgerald devoted himself to fathering the kid. Unluckily the son died in his late teens.

Meanwhile, Fitzgerald's wealth was increasing all the time. He spent a lot on art works of the masters. Later Fitzgerald himself became seriously ill. Before his death, he had carefully prepared his will as to how his wealth would be settled——to sell his entire collection at an auction(拍卖).

Because of the large quantity and high quality of his collection, a huge crowd of possible buyers gathered for the auction. Many of them were museum directors and private collectors eager to bid(出价). Before the auction, the art works were shown, among which was a painting of Fitzgerald's son by an unknown artist. Because of its poor quality, it received little attention.

When it was time for the auction, the auctioneer gaveled(敲槌)the crowd to attention. First the lawyer read from Fitzgerald's will that the first art work to be auctioned was the painting of his son.

The poor-quality painting didn't receive any bidders except one——the old servant who had attended to the son and loved him, and who for emotional reasons offered the only bid.

As soon as the servant bought the painting for less than one English pound, the auctioneer stopped the bidding and asked the lawyer to read again from the will. The crowd became quiet, and the lawyer read from the will: “Whoever buys the painting of my son gets all my collection.” Then the auction was over.

26. Fitzgerald was __________.

A. a museum director

B. a master of art

C. an art auctioneer

D. an art collector

27. Which of the following is TRUE according to the story?

A. Fitzgerald took care of his son all by himself.

B. Fitzgerald became seriously ill because of the death of his son.

C. Fitzgerald lost his wife and his only son within 10 years.

D. Fitzgerald decided to leave everything he had to his servant.

28. Fitzgerald's will showed __________.

A. his desire to fool the bidders

B. his invaluable love for his son

C. his sadness at the death of his son

D. his regret of having no heir (继承人)

29. What helped the old servant win the whole collection of Fitzgerald's?

A. No more than one pound.

B. Great increase of his wealth.

C. His strong passion for art.

D. His emotion for his young master.

30. At the result of the auction, the old man would feel more than ______________.

A. surprised B. sad C. interested D. expected

B Forgiving someone who has hurt you or let you down is never an easy thing. Several new studies, however, say that it could have a lot of health benefits. When you think of forgiveness, you probably don’t think of it as being a health or medical problem. Studies from Stanford University, on the other hand, show that something like anger can change your well-being.

When cartoon book characters like the Incredible Hulk(绿巨人) get angry, they change colors and often gain special power. In the real world, anger is less obvious and may be more dangerous. That’s why Professor Fred Luskin, founder of the Stanford Forgiveness Project and author of Forgive for Goodcan harm your physical and mental health. Two new studies seem to show the same idea.

The studies find that people who are able to forgive feel less stress, less back pain, and less depression. They also have fewer headaches, lower blood pressure, and fewer problems on sleeping.

So it doesn’t matter if your anger is caused by the traffic or other things. Learning to let it go is important. Techniques such as deep breath or thought can help. Or just ask yourself if it’s worth hurting yourself by staying angry with someone else.

Forgiveness does not mean that you simply accept what happened and say it’s OK. Instead, it’s a way of making peace with yourself about what happened in the past.

31. The author of the passage tries to make his viewpoint clear ______.

A. by raising his own examples

B. based on his own experience

C. by mentioning some studies

D. by mentioning some typical patients

32. The example of the cartoon book characters is taken in the passage to ______.

A. show that anger and hatred can result in physical and mental harm

B. let the reader know the different colors of cartoon faces

C. show how to control one’s temper

D. introduce a famous expert

33. The underlined phrase “holding on to” in this passage possibly means“______”.

A. moving away B. not letting go C. getting rid of D. learning about

A. stress B. depression C. sleeping trouble D. all the above

35. The best title for this passage is probably _______.

A. Forgiveness

B. Forgiveness Is Good for Health

C. A Secret to Keeping Health

D. Anger Is Bad for Health

C

We parents often take material things for love. “I give him everything,” a disappointed mother complains. “New shoes, video-games, and his own TV. You’d think he’d at least show me respect!”

Of course, love and presents are related. Most parents work hard to earn money. They want their children to have more than they did and have better lives. The problem is, most children don’t connect the things parents buy with the labor that pays for have more, but our culture——and television in particular——teaches them that more is never enough. Having more does not mean that a child feels loved.

From a parent’s point of view, children are not thankful. But this has to do with their natural growth. Young children see their parents as all-mighty(万能的). If parents fail to provide what they want, it must be a matter of choice. It’s normal for children, even school-age ones, not to be able to take another person’s point of view. For example, they may dislike their parents for working long hours, and not realize that the parent would also rather have more time at home.

In addition to giving presents, we have to find other ways to express love and create memories. Reading or telling stories together, making music and playing games are all ways for families to spend time without spending money. Traditions like reading favorite poems and even snowball fights all serve the purpose(达到目的). Most importantly, as parents, we have to learn to hold back some energy from our tiring jobs. When we’re present for our children, we ourselves become the presents we want to give.

36. The underlined word “them”( in Paragraph 2) refers to______________.

A. parents B. children C. the things parents buy D. better lives

When

A true friendship carries a long history of experience that determines

we are and keeps us connected. It is a treasure we should protect. Unfortunately, you’ll have disagreements. And the result can be what you don’t want end to the relationship.

The good news is that most troubled friendships can be mended. First, don’t let

your pride get in your way. Most of us can forgive each other when differences out in the open. Second, apologize when you’ re wrong - even if you have been wronged .Over the course of a friendship, even the best people make mistakes. Sometimes, it may be best, the wronged person takes the lead and apologizes. When you apologize, give your friend a chance to admit that he has been wrong. Third, see things your friend’s point of view. And finally, accept that friendships change as needs and lifestyle change. Making friends can

sometimes seem easy. The hard part is keeping the connections strong during the ups and downs that have an effect all relationships. My suggestion: Consider friendship an honor and a gift, and worth the effort to treasure and nurture (培养).

A

Agatha Christie (1890-1976) was born Agatha May Clarissa Miller in Devon, England in 1890, the youngest of three children in a conservative, well-to-do family. Taught at home by a governess and tutors, as a child Agatha Christie never attended school. She became skillful at creating games to keep herself occupied at a very young age. A child, unable to adequately express her feelings, she first turned to music as a means of expression and, later in life, to writing.

In 1914, at the age of 24, she married Archie Christie, a World War I fighter pilot. While he was off at war, she worked as a nurse. It was while working in a hospital during the war that Christie first came up with the idea of writing a detective novel. Although it was completed in a year, it wasn’t published until 1920, five years later.

―The mysterious Affair at Styles‖ gave the world the unique Hercule Poirot, a retired Belgian police officer who was to become one of the most enduring characters in all of fiction. With his waxed moustache and his ―little grey cell,‖ he was ―meticulous (careful to do things correctly), a tidy little man, always neat, orderly and a bit absurd.‖

Christie wrote more than 30 novels featuring Poirot. Among the most popular were‖ The Murder of Roger Ackroyd‖(1926), ―Murder on the Orient Expredd‖(1934), and ―Death on the Nile‖ (1937).

Another of Christie’s most well-known and beloved characters was introduced in ―Murder at the Vicarage‖ in 1930. Miss Jane Marple, an elderly single in the old- fashioned English village of St. Mary Mead, solved all manner of mysteries with intense concentration and instinct.

Christies ultimately (finally)became the acknowledged Queen of the Golden Age. In all, she wrote over 66 novel, numerous short stories and screenplays, and a series of romantic novels using the pen name Mary Westmacott. Several of her works were made into successful feature films, the most notable being Murder on the Orient Express (1974). In short, she is the single most popular mystery writer of all time. In 1971 she was awarded the high honor of becoming a Dame of the British Empire.

27. What does the underlined word ―bashful‖ probably mean?

A. Shy B. Conservative C. Stupid D. Sensitive

28. Mary Westmacott is_________________.

A. Agatha’s governess B. the name of Agatha’s novel

C. another name for Agatha D. the heroine of Agatha’s novel

29. Which of the following is NOT true about Hercule Poirot?

A. He was once a policeman B. He paid much attention to details

C. He sometimes seems rather foolish D. He solved mysterious with a sixth sense

30 In Agatha Christie’s life, What were the most popular novels that she wrote?

A; biography B. detective novel C. romantic fiction D. science fiction

B

Alibaba started taking the lead in China, simply enough, by connecting big Chinese manufacturers(制造商)with big buyers across the world. Its business-to-business site, Alibaba.com allowed business to buy almost everything. Alibaba’s advantage wasn’t hard to identify: size. Alibaba is just big, even by Chinese standards. Its marketplaces attract 231 million active buyers, 8 million sellers, 11.3 billion orders a year—markets—not charging small sellers a percentage of the sale.

If you want a quick look into the influence of Alibaba on daily Chinese life, take my experience. I moved to Beijing almost a year ago and quickly got tired of visiting small stores across the crowded, polluted city of 20 million people in search of new electronics, bathroom furnishings, and anything else my wife wanted. ―You’re looking ‖ my Chinese teacher asked me one day. With that, my wonderful new relationship with Alibaba began.

Alibaba’s original business-to-business model now is secondary to consumer buying. Chinese retail(零售)buying makes up 80% of Alibaba’s profit, and leading that group is Taobao, with 800 million items for sale and the most unbelievable selection of things you’ll ever find. TMall.com is Alibaba’s other big site, where you can find brand name goods from Nike and Unilever near the lowest prices.

What I have a hard time explaining to friends and family back in the U.S. is how China has gone beyond traditional shopping—big-box retailers especially —in favor of online purchases on Taobao and a few other sites. In smaller towns than Beijing, where big retailers have not yet traveled, shopping online is shopping, and shopping is Taobao. I have a list of some of my recent purchases on Taobao for a sense of how extensive the marketplace is. Almost everything arrived a day or two after ordering with free shipping. I’m not even a big buyer, because I need friends to help me search the Chinese-language site. When I was searching my purchase history on my Chinese teacher’s iPad, which helps me buy goods, I looked through with great difficulty about 10 of her purchases for every one of mine.

33. What does the underlined word ―it‖ in Paragraph 2 refer to?

A. a new store B. Alibaba C. a business D. a foreign website

34. What can be inferred from the passage?

A. The author’s Chinese teacher is also an online purchase lover.

B. Taobao has no obvious advantage over other similar online sites.

C. Alibaba’s business-to-business service earns more money than retail now.

D. TMall.com provides more profit than Taobao.

35. What is the passage mainly about?

A. Shopping online is TaoBao.

B. The influence of shopping online goes beyond traditional shopping.

C. Alibaba greatly influences people’s daily purchase in China.

D. How the author purchases online in China.

C

Consumer electronics once again topped the list of the most wanted gifts this holiday season. ―Seventy-six percent of consumers who plan to buy holiday gifts say that they will spend money buying at least one technology product; definitely a solid vote of confidence for technology.‖ Steve Koenig is with the Consumer Electronics Association. He says the group’s latest research also shows that Americans this year are spending more on technology products.

―Here in 2012, $252 on average–the technology spend for consumers this year.‖ From tablet computers to smart phones, American shoppers have been lining up to get the newest and coolest electronic devices on the market. There are more choices today than ever before. ―It’s kind of hard to make a decision.‖

Tablet computers are one of the best-selling products this year. Brian Tong is Senior Editor of CNET.com. The website reports on tech news and examines the latest electronic products. He says the Apple iPad Mini is one of the most popular tablets. Its starting price is $329. One of Apple’s biggest competitors is the Google Nexus 7. It starts at $199.

―The hardware inside is more powerful than what’s in the iPad Mini, but also it offers you a lot of things like maps that work better than Apple’s maps.‖ Brian Tong says there is one reason why people may like the iPad Mini more than the Nexus 7. ―If you just want to read books and surf the Internet, you don’t really need to get an iPad Mini, but if you want the largest group of apps that’s where the iPad and Apple’s ecosystem shines the most.‖

Dear Sir or Madam,

My name is Li Hua. I am writing this letter to tell you my terrible flight experience on BA793 on March 3rd, 2015.

The first trouble started when the flight was listed as “Delayed”. We were stuck at the airport and no one came to offer us any explanation. Seven hours later, when all the passengers finally got on board the plane, we were told we had to keep on waiting for another hour due to the bad weather! If we had been informed earlier, we would have chosen to stay in the waiting room. What was worse, upon my arrival, I found my check-in luggage/ suitcase which was newly bought out of shape, and its handle was broken!

I am looking forward to an explanation about this unpleasant experience and I strongly suggest your company do something to provide quality service to the passengers.

第一节 阅读理解 (共20小题;每小题2分,满分40分)

I wasn’t surprised when I read that actress Helen Hunt recently stated that she would never allow her young daughter to become a child star. Ms Hunt is the daughter of a Hollywood technical director, and grew up in Hollywood. Now in her late 40s, she started acting and modeling when she was eight and has probably seen a lot over those years in show business.

She has had a successful career. She earned four Golden Globes and four Emmys. She also attained the top honor of her profession when she won the Best Actress Academy Award for her role in the 1992 movie, As Good As It Gets. Given those , Ms Hunt is successful. There is no doubt that her early experiences as a child star prepared her for what has been an outstanding adult career. Given those achievements, why would this star declare she’ll never allow her daughter, now at the age of six, to follow in her footsteps?

Everyone familiar with the entertainment scene is aware of the reasons for her attitude. Recent tabloid (小报) news headlines featuring the troubles of former child stars, among them Lindsay Lohan, Britney Spears and the late Gary Coleman, may answer the question. Although Ms Hunt managed to become a successful grown-up star, she apparently believes she’s an exception.

What Ms Hunt may be suggesting is that many very young stars go through unnatural childhoods on movie and TV sets. While they’re earning big incomes, they’re so pampered (纵容) by directors and praised by fans; they may get false impressions that their lives will always be that way. Then, within a few years, when faced with reality, they’re hurt and confused. After all the overwhelming affection, they find they can’t deal with the problems. That’s often when drugs and alcohol take over their lives.

Helen Hunt has some other reasons why she doesn’t want her daughter to be in the entertainment business. Many child stars can never make a successful transition to meaningful adulthood. However, as with many Hollywood movies, I believe there are both good and bad scenes about how it can be played out in real life.

26. According to the passage, Ms Hunt _________.

A. started acting and modeling when she was a little girl

B. has been acting for about 30 years

C. is the daughter of a famous actor

D. started singing when she was eight

27. The underlined word “accolades” in Paragraph 2 probably means “_________”.

A. difficulties B. awards C. salaries D. opinions

28. The author thinks Helen Hunt’s success is mainly due to _________.

A. her hard work B. the help of a technical director

C. her experiences as a child star D. her talent and good luck

29. Helen Hunt wouldn’t allow her daughter to become a child star because she thinks _________.

A. child stars often take drugs and alcohol B. being a child star may ruin her future

C. child stars aren’t able to solve their problems D. it is difficult to succeed as a child actor

30. From the passage we can conclude that _________.

A. few child stars will succeed in the future

B. there is no way to save the entertainment business

C. the author has a different opinion about child stars

D. meaningful adulthood only belongs to non-child stars

B

The computer keyboard helped kill shorthand—a system of rapid handwriting, and now it’s threatening to finish off handwriting as a whole. When handwritten essays were introduced on the SAT exams for the class of 2012, just 15% of the most 1.5 million students wrote their answers in cursive(草写字母). The rest? Block letters.

And those college hopefuls are just the first edge of a wave of US students who no longer get much handwriting instructions in the primary grades, frequently 10 minutes a day or less. As a result, more and more students struggle to read and write cursive.

There are those who say the culture is at a crossing, turning from the written word to the typed one. If handwriting becomes a lost form of communication, does it matter?

It was at University Virginia that researchers recently discovered a previously unknown poem by Robert, written in his unique script. Handwritten documents are more valuable to researchers, historians say, because their authenticity(真实性) can be confirmed. Students also find them more fascinating.

The loss of handwriting also may be a cognitive(认知的) opportunity missed. Several academic studies have found that good handwriting skills at a young age can help children express their thoughts better—a lifelong benefit.

It doesn’t take much to teach better handwriting skills. At some schools in Prince George’s County, elementary school students use a program called Handwriting Without Tears for 15

minutes a day. They learn the correct formation of manuscript letters through second grade, and cursive letters in third grade.

There are always going to be some kids who struggle with handwriting because of their particular neurological(神经系统的) writing, learning issues or poor motor skills. Educators often point to this factor in support of keyboarding.

31. What is the author concerned about after 2012 Sat exams?

A. Keyboarding. B. Shorthand. C. Handwriting. D. Block letters.

32. A poem by Robert mentioned in the passage is used to ____________.

A. prove how valuable handwriting is B. explain what a famous poet he is

C. show how unique his poem is D. stress how fascinating the documents are

33. The example of Handwriting Without Tears helps to argue that _____________.

A. the schools are responsible for the loss of handwriting

B. the loss of handwriting is a cognitive opportunity missed

C. it doesn’t take much to teach better handwriting skills

D. the culture is turning from the written word to the typed one

34. According to the author, when is a perfect time to learn handwriting?

A. Kindergarten. B. Primary school.

C. High school. D. College.

35. What is the author’s attitude towards this debate?

A. Devotion. B. Encouragement. C. Critical. D. Objective.

C

【题文】A Every one of the gymnasts who went to National Qualifiers (国家冠军赛资格赛) showed up with that goal in mind. Everyone gave it their all.

And I hate admitting it, but I was an exception. I did not do my best. Not for the ribbon exercise, nor for the club exercise. Knowing that I could have reached a little further to catch my ribbon, focused a little more so the stick wouldn’t slip through my fingers, tried a little harder to clean up those errors, but I didn’t, still bothers me.

After my disappointing competition, I tried my best to keep my eyes dry. But soon tears burned the edges of my eyes, and as I blinked, the first tear rolled down my cheek. Even though I angrily wiped my tears away before she looked at me, the evidence of my self-pity session presented itself clearly in the form of dirty makeup and reddened eyes.

My mom hated to see me cry, especially because I had no right or reason to. I had messed up — that wasn’t anyone’s fault but mine — and crying wouldn’t help at all. “Why are you crying, Amanda?” she asked, perhaps more pointedly (尖刻地) than intended, but I heard the concern in her voice. Unable to form all the emotions into words, I just looked away and avoided her questions.

“Tell me now why you’re crying.” Her voice this time wasn’t as gentle as it was before; it was filled with frustration and impatience. “Why are you crying?” she whispered again, but this time

一、听力(共8小题;每小题2分,满分16分)

Tapescript:

M: Young people are given too much freedom nowadays, and as a result they have lost respect for their parents and elders in general.

W: I don’t think so. My parents gave me advice but never forced me to do anything I didn’t want to do. I respect and love them for this.

M: Sounds like they really trusted you.

W: Yeah. After I left school and started to work as a nurse, I became economically independent.

M: Do you get along well with them?

W: Yes. Many young people today say they have nothing in common with their parents. But I’m very lucky because I get along well with them. What about you?

M: Well, I don’t always get along well with my parents. They barely ever allow me to do what I want.

三问:

(1) What are the things they don’t allow you to do?/ What do they forbid you to do? What don’t they allow you to do?

Answer: Well, all my friends can go out to the movies or for dinner during the week, but my parents insist on my going out only on weekend, even if I don’t have to get up early the next day.

(2) Do they limit what you can do/ your activities on the weekend?

Answer: On the weekend, they don’t want me to go to Internet cafes even though I’m 18 years old. They always want to know who I’m with, and if they don’t like someone, they don’t want me to go out with them. It’s ridiculous.

(3) Why do you think your parents are so strict with you?

Answer: My parents grew up in very traditional families. I think they are still suspicious about modern life in the city. I hope that they can learn to relax a bit before I go crazy and run away!

五答:

1: She loves and respects them.

(Q1: How does the woman feel about her parents?)

2. When she started working as a nurse.

(B)

We once had a poster competition in our fifth grade art class.

“You could win prizes,‟‟ our teacher told us as she wrote the poster information on the blackboard. She passed out sheets of construction paper while continuing, “The first prize is ten dollars. You just have to make sure that the words on the blackboard appear somewhere on your poster.”

We studied the board critically. Some of us looked with one eye and held up certain our designs. Others twisted their hair around their fingers or chewed their erasers while deep in thought. We had plans for that ten-dollar grand prize, each and every one of us. I’m going to spend mine on candies, one hopeful would announce, while another practiced looking serious, wise and rich.

Everyone in the class made a poster. Some of us used parts of those fancy paper napkins, while others used nothing but colored construction paper. Some of us used big designs, and some of us preferred to gather our art tidily down in one corner of our poster and let the space draw the viewer‟s attention to it. Some of us would wander past the good students‟ desks and then return to our own projects with a growing sense of hopelessness. It was yet another grown-up trick of the sort they seemed especially fond of, making all of us believe we had a fair chance, and then always — always — rewarding the same old winners.

I believe I drew a sailboat, but I can‟t say that with any certainty. I made it. I admired it. I determined it to be the very best of all of the posters I had seen, and then I turned it in.

Minutes passed.

No one came along to give me the grand prize, and then someone distracted me, and I probably never would have thought about that poster again.

I was still sitting at my desk, thinking, What poster? when the teacher gave me an

C. $360. D. $420.
