But Huggons said, “There is no way I am going to listen to Sibson 23 and die in that fire.” “Anyone there?” Huggons called out. Then he

16、选项，并在答题纸上将该选项标号涂黑。AAs we all know, getting benched in sports is usually a bad thing. But at one school in Florida, a girl has taken a bench and turned it into something entirely different a place to find friends. Its called the Friendship Bench. And its the brainchild of a sixth grader at Palm Bay E
17、lementary a girl named Acacia Woodley.Acacias attitude toward life might be summed up best by a question she recently asked members of the Brevard County School Board “what if we spend as much time putting the spotlight on kindness as we do on cruelty?” Its a philosophy Acacias has learned to live h
18、er own life -despite having a lot of people would consider a handicap. She was born without a right hand. And her left hand did not form properly. But Acacia says that she has not stopped her from achieving her goals. “You need to believe in your dreams. If you dont believe in you dreams, I can defi
19、nitely tell you that they are not going to come true.” She said. Acacia came up with the idea for the Friendship Bench after seeing kids getting bullied at school. She says she has also experienced bullying herself kids whispering about her or picking on her because she is different. “Some people sa
20、y they feel sorry for me. I tell them not to,” she said. “I dont care that Im different. I like being different.”The Friendship Bench looks like a lot of other benches. It has arm sets and a place to lean on. But there are also words painted on it words such as “hope”, “respect”, “listen” and “dream
21、”. Acacia put the benches together with the help from her mother and brother.Any time a kid feels he or she needs a friend, all that kid needs to do is sit on the bench. It is then up to the other kids or grown-ups to fill that need. “Its a perfect idea,” Palm Bay Elementary Principal Lori said. “It
22、s something weve needed so badly.”The Friendship Bench has been such a success at Palm Bay Elementary that other schools are now interested in installing one too. “Theres a saying in my teachers classroom,” Acacia said. “It says, it you can dream it, you can achieve it.”31. What is the function of t
23、he first sentence in Paragraph One?A. To explain the meaning of getting benched is sports.B. To introduce the important role “bench” plays in sports.C. To introduce what the author wants to say in the text to us.D. To tell us that the passage is connected with the word “bench”.32. What can be learne
24、d about Acacia from the passage?A. She is disabled but leads an active life.B. She has a deep understanding of life.C. She finds it difficult to achieve her goals.D. She finds herself always in need of help.33. What can we infer from the passage?A. More Friendship Benches will be installed in other
25、schools soon.B. Students stop bullying other schoolmates at Palm Bay Elementary.C. The students at Palm Bay Elementary have become more friendly.D. Acacia has become a very important figure at Palm Bay Elementary.34. What is the best title of this passage?A. Acacias New Invention B . The Friendship
26、Bench C. Help from a Special Bench D. Getting Benched in SchoolBAugust 1990，BostonDear Maya Shao-ming,To me, June 6, 1990 is a special day. My long-awaited dream came true the minute your father cried, A girl! You are more than just a second child, more than just a girl to match our boy. You, little
27、 daughter, are the link to our female line, the legacy of another womans pain and sacrifice 31 years ago.Let me tell you about your Chinese grandmother. Somewhere in Hong Kong, in the late fifties, a young waitress found herself pregnant (怀孕) by a cook, probably a co-worker at her restaurant. She ca
28、rried the baby to term, suffered to give it birth, and kept the little girl for the first three months of her life. I like to think that my motheryour grandmotherloved me and fought to raise me on her own, but that the daily struggle was too hard. Worn down by the demands of the new baby and perhaps
29、 the constant threat of starvation, she made the painful decision to give away her girl so that both of us might have a chance for a better life.More likely, I was dropped at the orphanage (M JLR) steps or somewhere else. I will probably never know the truth. Having a baby in her unmarried state wou
30、ld have brought shame on the family in China, so she probably kept my existence a secret. Once I was out of her life, it was as if I had never been born. And so you and your brother and I are the missing leaves on a family tree.Do they ever wonder if we exist?Before I was two, I was adopted by an An
31、glo couple. Fed three square meals a day, I grew like a wild weed and grasped all the opportunities they had to offerbooks, music, education, church life and community activities. In a family of blue-eyed blonds, though, I stood out like a sore thumb. Whether from jealousy or fear of someone who loo
32、ked so different, my older brothers sometimes teased me about my unpleasing skin, or made fun of my clumsy walk. Moody and impatient, burdened by fears that none of us realized resulted from my early years of need, I was not an easy child to love. My mother and I conflicted countless times over the
33、years, but gradually came to see one another as real human beings with faults and talents, and as women of strength in our own right. Lacking a mirror image in the mother who raised me, I had to seek my identity as a woman on my own. The Asian American community has helped me regain my double identi
34、ty.来源:学科网ZXXBut part of me will always be missing: my beginnings, my personal history, all the delicate details that give a person her origin. Nevertheless, someone gave me a lucky name Siu Wai. Siu means little, and War means clever. Therefore, my baby name was Clever little one. Who chose those wo
35、rds? Who cared enough to note my arrival in the world?I lost my Chinese name for 18 years. It was Americanized for convenience to Sue. But like an ill-fitting coat, it made me uncomfortable. I hated the name. But even more, I hated being Chinese. It took many years to become proud of my Asian origin
36、 and work up the courage to take back my birth-name. That, plus a little knowledge of classroom Cantonese, is all the Chinese culture I have to offer you. Not white, certainly, but not really Asian, I try to pave the way between the two worlds and bridge the gap for you. Your name, Shao-ming, is ver
37、y much like mineShao means little. And ming is bright, as in a shining sun or moon. Whose lives will you brighten, little Maya? Your past is more complete than mine, and each day I cradle you in your babyhood, generously giving you the loving care I lacked for my first two years. When I pat you, I c
38、omfort the lost baby inside me who still cries for her mother.Sweet Maya, it doesnt matter what you become later on. You have already fulfilled my wildest dreams.I love you,Mommy35. Why is June 6. 1990 a special day for Mommy?A. Her dream of being a mother came true. B. Her female line was well link
39、ed.C. She wrote the letter to her daughter. D. She found her origin from her Chinese mother 36. How does Mommy feel about her being given away?A. It is bitter and disappointing. B. She feels hurt and angry.C. She feels sorry but sympathetic. D. It is painful but understandable.37. What can be inferr
40、ed from Mommys Anglo family life?A. She forgot the pains of her early years. B. She fought against her American identity.C. She used to experience an identity crisis. D. She kept her love for Asia from childhood.38. Why did Mommy name her daughter Shao-ming?A. To identify her with Chinese origin. B.
41、 To brighten the lives of the family.C. To match her own birth-name. D. To justify her pride in Chinese culture.C“I pity the empress. Poor empress.” “Do you think Zhen Huan really loves the emperor?” From campuses to offices, from shopping malls to the streets, talk about Legend of Zhen Huan is ever
42、ywhere.Unlike other long TV series, Legend of Zhen Huan, the 76-episode Qing dynasty drama series, has kept attracting new audiences along the way. It has enjoyed widespread popularity on the Chinese mainland over the past months.The story is seemingly the same as those dramas which look into the li
43、ves of women in the imperial palace. It focuses on plots and intrigues(阴谋) within the Inner Palace during Emperor Yongzhengs reign.The heroine, Zhen Huan, initially a kind and innocent young lady, enters the emperors harem(后宫) of concubines. Discovering that the palace is a cruel and harsh place, Zh
44、en learns how to survive on her own. However, Legend of Zhen Huan seems to arouse more discussion than any drama series. Why? Some experts say its because its a well-made series from inside out.Niu Hanting, deputy editor-in-chief of Art Panorama magazine, told Xinhua News Agency that the sets, props
45、 and costumes are carefully chosen. And the screenplay and dialogue are well-written. “The series takes care of every detail a good period drama should have,” Niu said. “From that aspect, its no coincidence that Zhen Huan could be big.” More importantly, Niu added, the TV series strikes a chord amon
46、g audiences in different ways. “For example, as a woman, Zhen is hurt by the man she once loved. And as a newcomer to the palace, she finds herself caught in the fierce infighting and she has to survive,” Niu said, “Everyone may find themselves in Zhens position at a certain point.”Then its not hard
47、 to understand why the story of Zhen Huan is even seen as a survival guide for newcomers in the workplace. Its director, Zheng Xiaolong, once admitted that in terms of society today, the “promotion” of Zhen Huan reflects a persons career path in some way. “Whether the principles can be applied in to
48、days society, or not, I want to make the story as real as possible,” Zheng told S. “There are many fairytale-like series that make audiences ignore or avoid reality, and the complexity of humanity.” “But Legend of Zhen Huan, is a series that makes you think.”39. Whats the main idea of the first para
49、graph?A. People have pity on the empress. B. Zhen Huan really loves the emperor.C. Legend of Zhen Huan is very popular. D. Legend of Zhen Huan is shown everywhere.40. What does the underlined word “it” in paragraph 3 most probably refer to? A. The imperial palace. B. The life of women. C. Emperor Yo
50、ngzhengs reign. D. The story of Zhen Huan.41. We can learn from Niu Hanting that she _. A. thinks Zhen has had effects on newcomers B. makes little of Legend of Zhen HuanC. speaks highly of Legend of Zhen Huan D. wants newcomer to follow Zhens example42. This text is most probably taken from a(n) _.
51、 A. textbook B. newspaper C.advertisement D. story book DIts a nightmare for Huazhong University of Science and Technology (HUST): within a week, two students committed suicide by jumping off dorm buildings. Officials from the university are reluctant(不情愿的) to give interviews. “We had a hard time ca
52、lming down students who were shocked at the suicides,” said Zhang Jingyuan, head of HUSTs center for research and guidance for students development. “Media coverage(报导) may arouse some students negative emotions again. Suicide can be contagious(传染性的),” Zhang said. The university reacted promptly to
53、the first suicide on October 23. Advisors and class leaders conducted dorm-to-dorm checks to find students suffering depression. Then psychologists offered one-on-one counseling to them. Notice boards publicizing tips for identifying peers mental problems and offering help were set up in front of do
54、rm buildings. Leaflets(传单) carrying similar information were handed out to each dorm. However, the second suicide came seven days later. Both students were described as men of few words. Their schoolmates didnt see anything to indicate suicide. Zhang revealed that the two students had been bothered
55、by mental disorders. But the school didnt know this until the students close friends outside school and their parents unveiled(揭露) the truth after the suicides. According to Zhang, there are only three full-time counselors (心理辅导专家)working in the universitys counseling center for its 60,000 students.
56、 He complained: “Its unrealistic to rely only on counselors to detect students mental problems.” Some universities in the US may be able to offer solutions to Zhangs worries. They have established programs to train students to be the bridge between troubled friends and counselors. At Worcester Polyt
57、echnic Institute, at Worcester, Massachusetts, US, young people in the Student Support Network role play to learn how to detect SOS signals from their schoolmates. They also practice how to gently persuade emotionally troubled students to go for professional help. To develop such empathy(同理心), many
58、universities in China have organized campus events to popularize knowledge about mental health. But these are not that attractive to students. Ke Juanjuan, 24, is pursuing a masters degree in English translation at HUST. Ke has found that few of her peers will pay attention to activities about menta
59、l health when they are not troubled by it. Rather than bombard students with the words “mental health”, Ke suggested the school organize lectures and workshops concerning study, job-hunting and relationships. She explained: “Students care about these topics. They tend to have problems in these areas
60、 and may thus get stuck in depression. “By helping students better deal with these problems, the school can effectively prevent self-inflicted injury and suicide among students.” Effective prevention comes from long-term education for life instead of temporary intervention(干预) to meet an emergency,
61、said Hu Yian. Hu delivers a course of lectures on life and death at Guangzhou University. He worries that universities have paid little attention to education for life. “Education for life helps students respect and love life so they wont resort（诉诸） to ending their lives when they have difficulties,
62、” said Hu. According to Hu, the principles can be incorporated(结合) into everyday teaching.43. In which column of a newspaper would you most probably read this passage? A. Forum B. Culture C. Advertisement D. Campus 44. The writer mentions Worcester Polytechnic Institute to_. A. encourage universitie
63、s in China to organize campus events to popularize knowledge about mental health. B. show their students are good at persuading emotionally troubled peers to go for professional help. C. show that Zhangs complaint is wrong. D. give an example of the universities in the US that have established progr
64、ams to train students to be the bridge between troubled friends and counselors. 45. Which one of the following sentences is NOT true? A. According to Ke Juanjuan, students tend to have problems in study, job-hunting and Relations. B. According to Hu, education for life can be incorporated into every
65、day teaching. C. According to Hu Yian, education for life helps students respect and love life so they wont commit suicide when they have difficulties. D. Effective prevention comes from temporary intervention to meet an emergency. 46. What is most likely to be talked about in the paragraph followin
66、g the passage? A. The function of education for life. B. The ways of education for life. C. How to incorporate education for life into everyday teaching D. The importance of education for life.EShould we allow modern buildings to be built next to older buildings in a historic area of a city? In orde
67、r to answer this question, we must first examine whether people really want to preserve the historic feel of an area. Not all historical buildings are attractive. However, there may be other reasons for example, economic (经济的) reasons-why they should be preserved. So, let us assume that historical b
68、uildings are both attractive and important to the majority of people. What should we do then if a new building is needed?In my view, new architectural styles can exist perfectly well alongside an older style. Indeed, there are many examples in my own home town of Tours where modern designs have been
69、 placed very successfully next to old buildings. As long as the building in question is pleasing and does not dominate (影响) its surroundings too much, it often improves the attractiveness of the area.It is true that there are examples of new buildings which have spoilt (破坏) the area they are in, but
70、 the same can be said of some old buildings too. Yet people still speak against new buildings in historic areas. I think this is simply because people are naturally conservative(保守的)and do not like change.Although we have to respect peoples feelings as fellow users of the buildings, I believe that i
71、t is the duty of the architect and planner to move things forward. If we always reproduced what was there before, we would all still be living in caves. Thus, I would argue against copying previous architectural styles and choose something fresh and different , even though that might be the more ris
72、ky choice.47. What does the author say about historical buildings in the first paragraph?A. They are more pleasing than modern buildings. B. Most of them ate too expensive to preserve.C. Some of them are not attractive. D. They have nothing to do with the historic feel of an area.48. Which of the fo
73、llowing is true according to the author ?A. We should reproduce the same old buildings.B. Buildings should not dominate their surroundings.C. No one understands why people speak against new buildings.D. Some old buildings have spoilt the area they are in.49. By “move things forward ” in the last par
74、agraph , the author probably means“ ”A. Destroy old buildings B. Choose new architectural stylesC. Put things in a different place D. Respect peoples feelings for historical buildings50. What is the main purpose of the passage?A. To explain why people dislike change.B. To argue that modern buildings
75、 can be built in historic areas. C. To admit how new buildings have ruined their surroundings.D. To warn that we could end up living in caves.第二节：对话填空Mary: Mike, how do I look in these blue jeans?

78、to an unnecessary part in schools today. However, most of the advantages that a student would gain out of a basic education in art are almost unbelievable.2There has been years of research involved in the importance of art education and what art education goals are. The studies prove that what stude
79、nts gain out of an art education is almost unbeatable, where any other course is concerned.3Motivation, inspiration and concentration are some of the most prominently recorded benefits that a young student can get from taking education. For a young persons personal growth and development an educatio
80、n in art is something that is considered to be very important as changing the way one looks at the world.4A child whose parents are rich will naturally and very often be exposed to art, whether it is in the form of art pieces hanging at home or visits to fashionable art museums etc. This has again b
81、een seen over the years by researchers. At the same time, it has been noticed that exposure to art is something that is very distant for children who belong to families with little money and they end up spending their childhood without forming any connection with art.5Art education goals in school t
82、herefore should be that _ the wonders of art should be given to all students, whatever age group and whatever their family backgrounds are, because one never knows where talent might be hidden.6However, art education goals have been slipping away from our education system for more twenty years now a
83、s people have begun to pay less importance to the requirement of art in their childrens lives. The reasons for this could be stressful budgets as well as stuffing of curriculum in classrooms s part of State mandates. Whatever these unfortunate reasons are, people have to once again realize art educa
84、tion goals and how they can actually be helping each student.56. What is the best title for the text? (within 8 words)_57. Point out the benefits a young student can get from taking education from paragraph 3. (within 5 words)_58. Fill in the blank in paragraph 5 with proper words. (within 4 words)_

(within 9 words)_二、改错（15分）Have you ever made an excuse for not going work?I guess the most people have. But have you ever called in a day
86、off because of your dog is sick? I bet（打赌）you didnt. Most people wouldnt have the guts（胆量）.Therefore, some companies in New Zealand findthis as a acceptable reason for taking a day off. It is considered as paying sick-leave. The reason, they say， is simple.“A sick dog is as independent as achild.” T
87、hat makes plenty of senses, doesnt it? This is now known in New Zealand like“dog days off”. I wonder what the bosses in China will say if someone calls in a dog off.三：书面表达（35分）全体高三学生目前经历了酷热的暑假补课，正处在一轮复习迎考的氛围中。你很累，但是你的父母对你无微不至的关怀着，他们也累。假如你叫李华，是龙泉一中一名高三学生，面对学习的压力，想和父母说说知心话，请你用英文在你的博客上用书信形式表达出来。主要内容如下：知心话感 恩关切鼓励，倾注爱心对父母的期望1. 多交流，使自己保持良好状态2. 创造条件，给自己提供适时帮助学习打算1 2 3注意：1. 短文须包括所有内容要点，可适当发挥。 2. 词数：120左右。开头和结尾已给出，不计入总词数。_
