17、在答题卡上将该项涂黑。I lost my sight when I was four years old by falling off a car and landing on my head. Now I am thirty-two. I can vaguely remember the brightness of _36_ and what color red is. It would be _37_ to see again, but a(n) _38_ can do strange things to people. I dont mean I would _39_ to go wit

I _45_ something bigger than that: a confidence that I am, despite being _46_, a real, positive person; that there is a special place where I can make myself fit.It took me years to discover and strengthen this confidence.
20、 It had to start with the easy and simple things. _47_ a man gave me an indoor baseball. I thought he was laughing at me and I was _48_. “I cant use this,” I said. “Take with you,” he urged me, “and roll it around.” The words _49_ in my head. “Roll it around!” By rolling the ball I could _50_ where

26、涂黑。AOscar the cat seems to have an unnatural ability for predicting when nursing home patients are going to die, by curling up (蜷伏) next to them during their final hours. His accuracy, observed in 25 cases, has led the staff to call family members once he has chosen someone. It usually means the pat
27、ient has less than four hours to live. Many family members take some comfort from it. They appreciate the companionship that the cat provides for their dying loved one, said Dosa, a doctor and assistant professor of medicine at Brown University.The 2-year-old cat was adopted as a kitten and grew up
28、in a third-floor dementia (痴呆) unit at the Steere House Nursing and Rehabilitation Center, where the facility treats people with Alzheimers, Parkinsons disease and other illnesses. After about six months, the staff noticed Oscar would make his own rounds, just like the doctors and nurses. Hed smell
29、and observe patients, then sit beside people who would end up dying in a few hours. Dosa said Oscar seems to take his work seriously. This is not a cat thats friendly to people, he said.Oscar is better at predicting death than the people who work here, said Dr. Joan Teno of Brown University, who tre
30、ats patients at the nursing home and is an expert on care for the terminally ill. She was convinced of Oscars talent when he made his 13th correct call. While observing one patient, Teno said she noticed the woman wasnt eating, was breathing with difficulty and that her legs had a bluish color, sign
31、s that often mean death is near. Oscar wouldnt stay inside the room, though, so Teno thought bis streak was broken. Instead, it turned out the doctors prediction was roughly 10 hours too early. Sure enough, during the patients final two hours, nurses told Teno that Oscar joined the woman at her beds
32、ide.Doctors say most of the people who get a visit from the sweet-faced, gray-and-white cat are so ill that they probably dont know hes there, so patients arent aware hes a predictor of death. Most families are grateful for the advance warning, although one wanted Oscar out of the room while a famil
33、y member died. When Oscar is put outside, he paces and meows his displeasure.No ones certain if Oscars behavior is scientifically significant or points to a cause. Teno wonders if the cat senses mysterious scents or reads something into the behavior of the nurses who raised him. Nursing home staff a
34、rent concerned with explaining Oscar, so long as he gives families a better chance at saying goodbye to the dying. The staff recently gave Oscar a wall sign publicly praising his sympathetic care.56. What makes Oscar the cat so special?A. He observes the cases of dying patients. B. He curls up next
35、to the patients. C. He calls family members to the hospital. D. He senses when patients are to die.57. The passage tells us Oscar_.A. would go round and observe patients B. may sometimes fail to predict death C. is friendly and liked by every nurse D. was born and grew up in the hospital58. The unde
36、rlined words his streak was broken probably mean _.A. his bones were severely injured B. his magic power stopped working C. his devotion to work got changed D. his friendship with patients ended59. From the passage, we learn that_. A. Oscars behavior is scientifically significant B. Oscar can read s
37、omething of the nurses behavior C. Oscar might like to stay with the dying patients D. Oscar is sympathetic to the dying patients60. The best title for this passage is _. A.

39、l Elder Willie Gordon.Depart Cairns Domestic Airport for the Skytrans Flight to Cooktown. Flight departs Cairns at 6:45 a.m. Enjoy a 45-minute flight with wonderful views from Cairns to Cooktown as you fly along the coast between the World Heritage rainforest and the Great Barrier Reef. On arrival i
40、n Cooktown you will be met by Willie Gordon, the traditional storyteller of the Nugal-warra clan(部落).Willie Gordon takes guests to his ancestral rock art sites, set high in the hills above Hope Vale, outside Cooktown. Here he shares the stories behind the art, and explains how the paintings speak of
41、 the most basic and important quality of life and the knowledge of his people.The tour takes you through an impressive view of six rock art sites, including an ancestral Birth Cave and the Reconciliation Cave. This includes a 30-minute bush walk on generally easy terrian(地形). (Covered closed-on shoe
42、s must be worn.)Return to Cooktown at 1:15 p.m. where Willie will take you to the Nature Power House Museum, Cooktowns Visitor Information Centre.

According to the passage, how will tourists arrive in Cooktown?A. By ship.B. By car.C. By air.D.
44、 By train.62. What do we learn about Willie Gordon?A. He acts as the guide of the tour. B. He is the owner of the Verhandah Cafe.C. He works in the Nature Power House Museum.D.

From the passage, the tour is designed to let the tourists_.A. learn about the custo
46、mB. enjoy the ancient artC. taste the delicious snacksD. experience the lifestyle CThese days we are all conditioned to accept newness, whatever it costs. Very soon, there is no doubt that Apples tablet (平板电脑) will seem as a vital tool of modern living to us as sewing machine did to our grandparents
47、. At least, it will until someone produces an even smarter, thinner and more essential tablet, which, if recent history is any guide, will be in approximately six months time. Turn your back for a moment and you find that every electronic item in your possession is as old as a tombstone. Why should
48、you care if people laugh just because you use an old mobile phone? But try getting the thing repaired when it goes wrong. Its like walking into a pub and asking for an orange juice. You will be made to feel like some sort of time-traveler from the 1970s. Why not buy a new one? you will get asked.And
49、 so the mountain of electrical rubbish grows. An average British person was believed to get rid of quite a number of electronic goods in a lifetime. They weighed three tons, stood 7 feet high, and included five fridges, six microwaves, seven PCs, six TVs, 12 kettles, 35 mobile phones and so on. Even
50、 then, the calculation seemed to be conservative. Only 35 mobiles in a lifetime? The huge number of electronic items now regularly thrown away by British families is clearly one big problem. But this has other consequences. It contributes greatly to the uneasy feeling that modem technology is going
51、by faster than we can keep up. By the time Ive learnt how to use a tool its already broken or lost. Ive lost count of the number of TV remote-controls that Ive bought, mislaid and replaced without working out what most of the buttons did.And the technology changes so unbelievably fast. It was less t
52、han years ago that I spotted an energetic businessman friend pulling what seemed to be either a large container or a small nuclear bomb on wheels through a railway station. I asked. What have you got in there? Your money or your wife? Neither, he replied, with the satisfied look of a man who knew he
53、 was keeping pace with the latest technology, no matter how ridiculous he looked. This is what everyone will have sooneven you. Its called a mobile telephone.I dont feel sorry for the pace of change. On the contrary, Im amazed by those high-tech designers who can somehow fit a camera, music-player,
54、computer and phone into a plastic box no bigger than a packet of cigarette. If those geniuses could also find a way to keep the underground trains running on the first snowy day of winter, they would be making real progress for human beings. What I do regret, however, is that so many household items
55、 fall behind so soon. My parents bought a wooden wireless radio in 1947, the year they were married. In 1973, the year I went to university, it was still working. It sat in the kitchen like an old friendwhich, in a way, it was. It certainly spoke to us more than we spoke to each other on some mornin
56、gs. When my mum replaced it with a new-style radio that could also play cassette-tapes, I felt a real sense of loss.Such is the over-excited change of 21st-century technology that theres no time to satisfy our emotional needs. Even if Apples new products turn out to be the most significant tablets I
57、 very much doubt if they will resist this trend. 66. When you try getting an old mobile phone repaired, _.A. you are travelling through time B. you are thought to be out of date C. you will find everything wrong D. you have got to buy a new one 67.

A. the businessman mastered the latest technology B. mobile phones used to be quite big just years ago C. the businessman was a very ridiculous person D
59、. the writer failed to follow modern technology69. The passage is organized in the pattern of _.A. time and events B. comparison and contrast C. cause and effect D. examples and analysis70. Which of the following is conveyed in the passage? A. The fast pace of change brings us no good. B. We have to
60、 keep up with new technology. C. Household items should be upgraded quickly. D. We should hold on for new technology to last.DIn the early 1950s, researchers found that people scored lower on intelligence tests if they spoke more than one language. Research in the sixties found the opposite. Bilingu
61、al people scored higher than monolinguals, people who speak only one language. So which is it?Researchers presented their newest studies last month at a meeting of the American Association for the Advancement of Science. The latest evidence shows that being bilingual does not necessarily make people
62、 smarter. But researcher Ellen Bialystok says it probably does make you better at certain skills.Ellen Bialystok said, “Imagine driving down the highway. Therere many things that couldcapture your attention and you really need to be able to monitor all of them. Why would bilingualism make you any be
63、tter at that?”And the answer, she says, is that bilingual people are often better at controlling their attention a function called the executive control system.Ms. Bialystok is a psychology professor at York University in Toronto, Canada. She says the best method to measure the executive control sys
64、tem is called the Stroop Test. A person is shown words in different colors. The person has to ignore the word but say the color. The problem is that the words are all names of colors.Ellen Bialystok said, “So you would have the word blue written in red, but you have to say red. But blue is so salien
65、t(显著的), its just lighting up all these circuits(电路) in your brain, and you really want to say blue. So you need a mechanism(机制) to override that so that you can say red. Thats the executive control system.”Her work shows that bilingual people continually practice this function. They have to, because
66、 both languages are active in their brain at the same time. They need to suppress(抑制) one to be able to speak in the other.This mental exercise might help in other ways, too. Researchers say bilingual children are better able to separate a word from its meaning, and more likely to have friends from
67、differentcultures. Bilingual adults are often four to five years later than others in developing dementia orAlzheimers disease.71. Whats the best title of the text?A. Bilingual People, SmarterB. Monolingual People, SmarterC. Bilingual People, Longer LivesD. Bilingual People, Better at Some Skills72.
68、 The underlined word “override” in Paragraph 6 probably means _.A. pay attention to B. take no notice of C. take an interest in D. take care of73. In the Stroop Test, supposing you have the word yellow written in white, you will have to say _.A. white B. yellow C. blue D. red74. Which group of peopl
69、e can most likely pass the Stroop Test?A. People who can speak only Chinese.B. People who can speak only Japanese.C. People who can speak more than one language.D. People who can speak only English.75. Which of the following statements is FALSE according to the text?A. A bilingual child is better at
70、 separating a word from its meaning.B. A bilingual child can more easily make friends with a foreign child.C. Bilingual people are more able to monitor several things at the same time.D. Its not possible for bilingual people to develop Alzheimers disease.第II卷（两部分 共35分）第四部分 写作（共二节, 满分35分）第一节：阅读表达（共5小

Whether its the music from a grocery store or random(随机的）songs on the radio， holiday music remains to flood in the air from the day after Thanksgiving to the beginning of December. Ch
72、ristmas music gets extremely over- played through the Holiday season. “I think the common seasonal Christmas music is annoying because it keeps being played over and over.”said junior Devin McFarland.2The Christmas music still played today is what she heard in her childhood. Some famous Christmas so
73、ngs have never been changed. The original music is played so much that in some cases people dream about or even sing Christmas music_. She wishes that there was a wider variety of songs. She likes the newer Christmas songs that bands either re- make or write themselves. They have a fresher sound to
74、Christmas songs, and they add their own characteristics to them so that they are more like their own songs. ” McFarland explained.3Christmas is known as a happy and homecoming festival, so the holiday season is meant to be spent happily with your family. It is recognized that the music media wants t
