A month after Hurricane Katrina, I returned home in New Orleans. There lay my house,
reduced to waist-high rains, smelly and dirty.
Before the trip, I’d had my car fixed. When the office employee of the garage was writing up the bill, she noticed my Louisiana license plate. “You from New Orleans?” she asked. I said I was, “No charge.” She said, and firmly shook her head when I reached for my wallet. The next day I went for a haircut, and the same thing happened.
As my wife was studying in Florida, we decided to move there and tried to find a rental house that we could afford while also paying off a mortgage（抵押贷款）on our ruined house. We looked at many places, but none was satisfactory. We’d begun to accept that we’d have to live in extremely reduced circumstances for a while, when I got a very curious e-mail from a James Kemmedy in California. He’d read some pieces I’d written about our sufferings for state, the online magazine and wanted to give us (“no conditions attached”) a new house across the lake from New Orleans.
It sounded a good to her return, but I replied, thinking him for his exceptional generosity, then we ____ to go back. Then the University of Florida offered to let him house to me. While he want to England on his one year, paid leave. The rent was rather reasonable. I mentioned the poet’s offer to James Kemmedy, and the next day he sent a check covering our entire rent for eight months.

If you look for a book as a present for a child, you will be spoiled for choice even in a year there is no new Harry Potter J.K Rowling’s wizard is not alone the past decade has been a harvest for good children’s books, which has set off a large quantity of films and an increased sales of classics such as The lord of the Rings.
Yet despite that, reading is increasingly unpopular among children. According to statistics in 1997, 23% said they didn’t like reading in all. In 2003, 35% did. And around 6% of children leave primary school each year unable to read properly.
Maybe the decline is caused by the increasing availability of computer games. Maybe the books boom has affected only the top of the educational pile. Either way, Chancellor Cordon Brown plans to change things for the bottom of the class. In his pre-budget report, he announced the national project of Reading Recovery to help the children struggling most.
Reading Recovery is wined at six year olds, who receive four months of individual daily half-hour classes with a specially trained teacher. An evaluation either this year reported that children on the school made 20 months’ progress in just one year, whereas similarly weak readers without special help made just five months’ progress, and so ended the year even further below the level expected for their age.
International research tends to find that when British children leave primacy school they read well, but read text often for fun than those elsewhere. Reading for fun matters because children who are keen on reading can report lifelong pleasure and loving books is an excellent indicator of future educational success. According to the OECD, being a regular and enthusiastic reader is of great advantage.
60．Which of the following is true of Paragraph 1?
A．Many children’s books have been adapted from films.

A．An evaluation of it will be made sometime this year.
B．Weak readers on the project were the most hardworking.
C．It aims to train special teachers to help children with reading.
D．Children on the project showed noticeable progress in reading.
63．Reading for fun is important because book-loving children _________.
A．take greater advantage of the project
B．show the potential to enjoy a long life

When Andrea Peterson landed her first teaching job, she faced the daunting task of creating a music program with almost no money for equipment or supplies in a climate where standards-based learning was the focus and music just provided a break for students and teachers.
For her drive and creativity in overcoming those challenges, she’s been named national teacher of the year.
Principal Waynes Kettler said he’s worked with many outstanding teachers in his 22 years as an educator, but Peterson is “just that one step above anybody I’ve ever worked with before.”
Kettler and others at Monte Cristo Elementary School talk about the ways she has introduced the learning from other classrooms into her music program and her creativity in working around things such as the lack of money for new music.
When students were reading S.E. Hinton’s novel The Outsiders in their regular classroom, Peterson helped them write a 30-minute play with scenes from the book. Then they chose three Broadway tunes that focused no race, equality and social justice, the themes of the book. Peterson composed two other songs herself after classroom discussions about the play and the book.
The honor means a lot to residents of Granite Foils. It’s inspiring to know that people from small towns own even win national honors.
As national teacher of the year, Peterson will spend the more year outside the classroom, as a national and international spokeswoman for education.

Sports shoes that out whether their owner has enough exercise to warrant time in front of the television have been devised in the UK.
The shoes — named Square Eyes — contain an electronic pressure sensor and a tiny computer chip to record how many steps the wearer has taken in a day. A wireless transmitter passes the information to a receiver connected to a television, and this decides how much evening viewing time the wearer deserves, based on the day’s efforts.
The design was inspired by a desire to fight against the rapidly ballooning waistlines among British teenagers, says Gillian Swan, who developed Square Eyes as a final year design project at Brunel University to London, UK. “We looked at current issues and childhood overweight really stood out,” she says. “And I wanted to tackle that with my design.”
Once a child has used up their daily allowance gained through exercise, the television automatically switches off. And further time in front of the TV can only be earned through more steps.
Swan calculated how exercise should translate to television time using the recommended daily amounts of both. Health experts suggest that a child take 12,000 steps each day and watch no more than two hours of television. So, every 100 steps recorded by the Square Eyes shoes equals precisely one minute of TV time.
Existing pedometers （计步器） normally clip onto a belt or slip into a pocket and keep count of steps by measuring sudden movement. Swan says these can be easily tricked into recording steps through shaking. But her shoe has been built to be harder for lazy teenagers to cheat. “It is possible, but it would be a lot of effort,” she says. “That was one of my main design considerations.”
71．According to Swan, the purpose of her design project is to ________.
A．keep a record of the steps of the wearer
B．deal with overweight among teenagers
C．enable children to resist the temptation of TV
D．prevent children from being tricked by TV programs
72．Which of the following is true of Square Eyes shoes?
A．They regulate a child’s evening TV viewing time.
B．They determine a child’s daily pocket money.
C．They have raised the hot issue of overweight.
D．They contain information of the receiver.
73．What is stressed by health experts in their suggestion?
A．The exact number of steps to be taken.
B．The precise number of hours spent on TV.
C．The proper amount of daily exercise and TV time.
D．The way of changing steps into TV watching time.
74．Compared with other similar products, the new design ________.
A．makes it difficult for lazy teenagers to cheat
B．counts the wearer’s steps through shaking
C．records the sudden movement of the wearer
D．sends teenagers’ health data to the receiver
75．Which of the following would be the best title for the text?
A．Smart Shoes Decide on Television Time
B．Smart Shoes Guarantee More Exercise
C．Smart Shoes Measure Time of Exercise
D．Smart Shoes Stop Childhood Overweight

第一节：阅读表达（共 5 小题，每小题 3 分，满分 15 分）
阅读下面的短文，请根据短文后的要求答题（请注意问题后的字数要求）
An American friend of mine who was high up in a big corporation had worked out a way of heading a flood of e-mails before most of us had even heard of the concept. If any information he was sent was vital enough, his lack of response would ensure the sender rang him up. If the sender wasn’t important enough to have his private number, the communication couldn’t be that important. My friend is now even more senior in the same company, so the strategy must work.
Almost every week now, there seems to be a report suggesting that we are all being driven crazy by the bother of e-mail. If this is the case, it’s only because we haven’t developed an appropriate discrimination in dealing with it.
________ Firstly, you junk anything with an exclamation mark on a string of capital letters, or from any address you don’t recognize or feel confident about.
Secondly, e-mails don’t all have to be answered. Because e-mailing is so easy, there’s a tendency for correspondence to carry on for ever, but it is permissible to stop an endless discussion or to accept a point of information sent by a colleague without acknowledging it.
Thirdly, a reply e-mail doesn’t have to be the same length as the original. We all have e-mail pals who send long, chatty e-mails, which are nice to receive, but who then expect an equally long reply. The charm of e-mail can consist in the single, incomplete sentence, totally regardless of the
format of the letter sent by post. You are perfectly within the bounds of politeness in responding to a marathon e-mail with a brief reply.
76．Which sentence in the passage is the closest in meaning to the following one?
The possible existence of annoyance results from our inability to sort our e-mails
_______________________________________________________________
77．Fill in the bland in Paragraph 3 with a popper sentence. (within 10 words )

78．What advice is given in the last paragraph? (within 10 words)

79．For what purpose does the author mention his American friend in Paragraph 1? (within 10 words)

第二节：作文
Recently I learned from the newspaper that normal universities belonging to the Education Department would recruit some students free. As a return, the students must serve as a primary school teacher for at least ten years in his(or her) hometown. I feel that is a good news for me and I will contact the universities to get enrolled.
First of all, as a farmer’s child, my father’s living condition is not so good. I can hardly afford the high tuition of regular universities. I’m so happy to get this chance to become a college
student and continue my study.
Secondly, serving a teacher is my dream since I was a child. I was brought up in a mountain village. Many of my little friends got poor education and they had to get to work as a teenager. If I become a teacher, I’ll devote myself to giving them better education.
Lastly, out country is in great need of teachers, especially in rural areas. After I graduate, I will return to my hometown and serve as a good teacher.

参考答案:
Recently I learned from the newspaper that normal universities belonging to the Education Department would recruit some students free.As a return,the students must serve as a primary school teacher for at least 10 years in his (or her) hometown.I feel that is a good news for me and I will contact the universities to get enrolled.
First of all,as a farmer’s child,my family’s living condition is not so good.I can hardly afford the high tuition of regular universities.I am so happy to get this chance to become a college student and continue my study.
Secondly,serving as a teacher is my dream since I was a child.I was brought up in a mountain village.Many of my little friends got poor education and they had to get to work as a teenager.If I become a teacher,I will devote myself to give them better education.
Lastly,our country is in great need of teachers,especially in rural areas.After I graduate,I will return to my hometown and serve as a good teacher.

Young adult filmmakers all hope to show their works in international festivals like Sundance and Toronto. But what about really young filmmakers who aren’t in film school yet and aren’t, strictly speaking, even adults?
They are at the heart of Wingspan Arts Kids Films Festival, tomorrow, in a setting any director might envy: Lincoln Center. Complete with “red carpet” interviews and various awards, the festival has much in common with events for more experienced moviemakers, except for the age of the participants: about 8 to 18.
“What’s really exciting is that it’s film for kids by kids,” said Cori Gardner, managing
director of Wingspan Arts, a nonprofit organization offering youth arts programs in the New York area. This year the festival will include films not only from Wingspan but also from other city organizations and one from a middle school in Arlington, Virginia. “We want to make this a national event,” Ms. Gardner added.
The nine shorts to be shown range from a Claymation biography of B.B. King to a science fiction adventure set in the year 3005. “A lot of the material is really mature,” Ms. Gardner said, talking about films by the New York City branch of Global Action Project, a media arts and leadership-training group. “The Choice is about the history of a family and Master Anti-Smoker is about the dangers of secondhand smoke.” Dream of the Invisibles describes young immigrants’ feelings of both belonging and not belonging in their adopted country.
The festival will end with an open reception at which other films will be shown. These include a music video and full-length film whose title is Pressures.
56. Wingspan Arts Kids Film Festival ____.

Federal regulators Wednesday approved a plan to create a nationwide emergence alert (警报) system using text messages delivered to cell phones.
Text messages have exploded in popularity in recent years, particularly among young people. The wireless industry's trade association, CTIA, estimates（估计） more than 48 billion text messages are sent each month.
The plan comes from the Warning Alert and Response Network Act, a 2006 federal law that requires improvements to the nation's emergency alert system. The act tasked the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) with coming up with new ways to alert the public about emergencies.
"The ability to deliver accurate and timely warnings and alerts through cell phones and other
mobile services is an important next step in our efforts to help ensure that the American public has the information they need to take action to protect themselves and their families before, and during, disasters and other emergencies," FCC Chairman Kevin Martin said following approval of the plan.
Participation in the alert system by carriers –telecommunications companies is voluntary, but it has received solid support from the wireless industry.
The program would be optional for cell phone users. They also may not be charged for receiving alerts.
There would be three different types of messages, according to the rules.
The first would be a national alert from the president, likely involving a terrorist attack or natural disaster. The second would involve "approaching threats," which could include natural disasters like hurricanes or storms or even university shootings. The third would be reserved for child abduction (绑架) emergencies, or so-called Amber Alerts.
The service could be in place by 2010.
61. What is the purpose of the approved plan?
A. To warn people of emergencies vis messages.
B. To popularize the use of cell phones.
C. To estimate the monthly number of messages.
D. To promote the wireless industry.
62. The improvement to the present system is in the charge of ____.
A. CTIA B. the Warning Alert and Response Network
C. FCC D. federal regulators
63. The carriers’ participation in the system is determined by _____.
A. the US federal government
B. mobile phone users
C. the carriers themselves
D. the law of the United States
64. Which of the following is true of cell phone users?
A. They must accept the alert service.
B. They may enjoy the alert service for free.
C. They must send the alerts to others
D. They may choose the types of messages
65. An alert message will NOT be sent if _____.
A. a child loses his way.
B. a university shooting happens
C. a natural disaster happens
D. a terrorist attack occurs
66. Which of the following would be the best title for the text?
A. Cell Phone Alerts Protecting Students
B. Cell Phone Alerts by Wireless Industry
C. Cell Phone Alerts of National Disasters
D. Cell Phone Alerts Coming Soon

It was the summer of 1965. DeLuca, then 17, visited Peter Buck, a family friend. Buck asked DeLuca about his plans for the future. “I’m going to college, but I need a way to pay for it,” DeLuca recalls saying. “Buck said, ‘You should open a sandwich shop.’”
That afternoon, they agreed to be partners. And they set a goal: to open 32 stores in ten years. After doing some research, buck wrote a check for $1000. DeLuca rented a storefront (店面) in Connecticut, and when they couldn’t cover their start-up costs, Buck kicked in another $1000.
But business didn’t go smoothly as they expected. DeLuca says, “After six months, we were doing poorly, but we didn’t know how badly, because we didn’t have any financial controls.” All he and Buck knew was that their sales were lower than their costs.
DeLuca was managing the store and going to the University of Bridgeport at the same time. Buck was working at his day job as a nuclear physicist in New York. They’d meet Monday evenings and brainstorm ideas for keeping the business running. “We convinced ourselves to open a second store. We figured we could tell the public, ‘We are so successful, we are opening a second store.’” And they did—in the spring of 1966. Still, it was a lot of learning by trial and error.
But the partners’ learn-as-you-go approach turned out to be their greatest strength. Every Friday, DeLuca would drive around and hand-deliver the checks to pay their suppliers. “It probably took me two and a half hours and it wasn’t necessary, but as a result, the suppliers got to know me very well, and the personal relationships established really helped out,” DeLuca says.

Melissa Poe was 9 years old when she began a campaign for a cleaner environment by writing a letter to the then President Bush. Through her own efforts, her letter was reproduced on over 250 donated billboards across the country.
The response to her request for help was so huge that Poe established Kids For A Cleaner Environment (Kids F.A.C.E.) in 1989. There are now 300,000 members of Kids FACE worldwide and is the world's largest youth environmental organization.
Poe has also asked the National Park Service to carry out a "Children's Forest" project in every national park. In 1992, she was invited as one of only six children in the world to speak at the Earth Summit in Brazil as part of the Voices of the Future Program. In 1993, she was given a Caring Award for her efforts by the Caring Institute.
Since the organization started, Kids F.A.C.E. members have distributed and planted over 1 million trees! Ongoing tree-planting projects include Kid's Yards – the creation of backyard wildlife habitats (栖息地) and now Kids F.A.C.E. is involved in the exciting Earth Odyssey, which is a great way to start helping.
"Starting the club turned out to be a way to help people get involved with the environment. Club members started doing things like recycling, picking up litter and planting trees as well as inviting other kids to join their club."
"We try to tell kids that it's not OK to be lazy," she explains. "You need to start being a responsible, environmentally friendly person now, right away, before you become a resource-sucking adult."
72. Kids F.A.C.E is _____.
A. a program to help students with writing

阅读下面的短文，并根据短文后的要求答题（请注意问题后的字数要求）。
[1]The word addiction usually makes you think of alcohol or drugs, but in modern-day society we are seeing some new kinds of addictions. Some people are compulsive (难以自制的) shoppers. Others find it impossible to pull themselves away from their work. Still others spend countless hours watching TV or playing computer games
[2]Over the years, shopping has become a very common activity. Many people enjoy going to malls or stores more and more everyday, but it’s more than a common hobby for some of them. They have turned into shopaholics. They are people who simply enjoy shopping and walking around spending money without being able to stop doing it. They are hooked on shopping and usually buy things that they don’t need. Even though they don’t have enough money, they buy everything they want.
[3]The question is: why do they have this addiction? There isn’t a specific answer. Some people go shopping when they are sad, worried, upset or lonely and they want to feel better. They use this activity as a way to forget their problems. Shopaholics say that they feel more important and better after they buy something. They also tend to have this addiction when they feel guilty.
[4]Shopaholism seems to be a harmless addiction, but it can ___________. Some of them can be psychological. If this is the case, people addicted to shopping should go to a support group to help them break this habit. However, the process, like for most addictions, is long, and they suffer a lot. It can also cause financial problems. They just think about satisfying their feelings, so they spend money they don’t have. They get deep in debt, and they can even go bankrupt and get sent to prison.

② _______________________

Dear Li Ming，
I’m very glad to become your classmate. I know you are worried about your study and don’t know how to adapt yourself to the new environment. There are some suggestions about it and I hope they can help you.
You know we always become puzzled when we go to a new environment because we don’t know anything about the people around us and even don’t know what to do. I think you should make friends with the students in our class. Then if you have any problem you can ask us or our teacher for help. We’ll try our best to help you.
After class, I’ll show you around our school and tell you something about it. If you have any problem, please tell me and I will give you my advice not only on study but also on your life here.
All in all, I hope you can adapt yourself to the new environment and we can become good friends.
Best regards,

2008年高考英语山东卷试题解析
第I卷（共105分）
第二部分 英语知识运用（共两节，满分35分）
第一节 单项填空（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分）
21. Students should be encouraged to use ___ Internet as ____ resource.
A. 不填；a B. 不填；the C. the; the D. the; a
22. He found it increasingly difficult to read, ____ his eyesight was beginning to fail.
A. though B. for C. but D. so
举一反三：
The day breaks，______ the birds are singing.
A. because B. as C. since D. for
解析：D。若选A、B、C，强调The day breaks(天亮)的直接原因或者显而易见的原因就是the birds are singing(鸟叫)，显然这是不成立的，只有for引出的句子作为一种附加说明才成立。
23. _____ was most important to her, she told me, was her family.
A. It B. This C. What D. As
24. Thank you for all your hard work last week. I don’t think we ____ it without you.
A. can manage B. could have managed C. could manage D. can have managed
举一反三
--- I stayed at a hotel while in New York .
--- Oh, did you? You ＿＿＿＿ with Barbara． (NMET’98)
A. could have stayed B. could stay
C. would stay D. must have stayed
解析：A。could have done 表虚拟，意为“本来能够做…（而事实上没做成）”，句意为“噢？你呆在宾馆了！你本来可以和芭芭拉住在一起的”。
25. By the time he realizes he ____ into a trap, it’ll be too late for him to do anything about it.
A. walks B. walked C. has walked D. had walked

A. who B. which C. why D. when

A. something B. anything C. everything D. nothing
举一反三
It is easy to do the repair, ________you need is some nails．
A．Something B．All C．Both D．Everything
解析：B。本题考查不定代词的用法，首先从语意上排除something(因为某样东西与后面的具体物品a hammer and some nails矛盾), both“两者都”不合适。 everything每件事(而文中只提到 a hammer and some nails)故选B。A11 you need =A that you need = what you need…..
28. The fact that she never apologized ____ a lot about what kind of person she is.
A. says B. talks C. appears D. declares
29. Einstein like Bose’s paper so much that he ____ his own work and translated it into German.

A. working B. work C. to work D. worked
举一反三 He sent me an e-mail, ___ to get further information.
A. hoped B. hoping C. to hope D hope
解析：B。考核点是现在分词。本句中的现在分词hoping做伴随状语，表示伴随状态，其作用相当于and连接的并列句：He sent me an e-mail and hoped to get further information. 其实，本句也可以说：He sent me an e-mail to get further information. (to引导的不定式短语做目的状语。) 但不可以用to hope to get…。
单项填空答案解析：
21. D 此题考查冠词的用法。题意为：学生们应该被鼓励把网络作为一种资源来利用。the internet 表示一类事物，a resource表示是资源的一种。
22. B 此题考查状语从句连词的选择。题意为：他发现读书越来越难了，因为他的视力正开始下降。从题意看，前后句应是因果关系。for引导原因状语从句，表示一种补充说明，通常与主句用逗号隔开。用作连词though意为尽管，but意为但是，转折关系，so意为所以，颠倒了因果关系。均可排除。
23. C 此题考查主语从句连词的选择。此题的关键在于看出she told me是插入语，从结构上不影响整个句子的表达。根据题意“她告诉我，对她来说最重要的是她的家庭”可知，第二个was 是整个句子的谓语动词。所选词须是连词用来引导主语从句。故可排除A,B。as不能引导主语从句，也可排除。what引导名词性从句在从句中做主语。
24. B 此题考查情态动词表示虚拟意义的用法。I don’t think…是否定前移。意为：我认为没有你我们本不能做成这件事的。此题关键是要根据句意知道是虚拟语气，其基本形式是情态动词（过去式）+have done,所以其他选项皆可排除。
25. C 此题考查动词时态。根据句意“截止到他意识到的时候，他已经走进了一个陷阱”以及by常和完成时连用可排除A,B。而且realize用一般现在时的单数第三人称形式，以及后句中用一般将来时，所以选C。
26. D 此题考查定语从句关系词的选择。此题关键是要根据句意看出是定语从句。句意为：我有时间和孩子们一起度过一天的机会很少。Occasions是先行词，所选关系词在定语从句中要做时间状语，故可排除其他选项。
27. C 此题考查不定代词的用法。理解句意是关键。题意为：在你离开前，确保你已有了护照，票等一切东西。Everything意为：所有，一切东西；something意为：某种东西；anything意为：任何东西；nothing意为：没有什么。皆可排除。
28. A 此题考查动词词义的区别.句意为“她永远不会道歉很大程度上说明了她是一个什么样的人”。A 项say意为“说明，表达，显示” ，B项talk 意为“谈论”，C
项appear意为“出现，显得…”D项declare 意为“宣布，声明”，语意都不合情境。
29. D 此题考查短语的用法。题意为：爱因斯坦如此喜欢玻色的论文以至于他把自己的工作置于一旁，把它翻译成德语。Set aside意为：不顾，把…置于一旁。give off意为发出，放出；turn down意为拒绝；take over意为接收, 接管。
30. B 此题考查情景对话。对于对方的邀请表示感谢病并委婉拒绝。情景对话要从礼貌出发。My pleasure 相当于It’s my pleasure, 用于回答对方的感谢.Take it easy意为：别着急，慢慢来。Forget it意为：算了吧，别再提了，常用于回答别人的感谢和道歉。
31. C 此题考查状语从句连词的选择。理解句意是关键。题意为：你最好不要把药放在孩子们够得着的地方。Where 引导地点状语从句，意为：在…的地方。even if 意为：即使，尽管，引导让步状语从句；so that 意为：以至于，引导结果状语从句。Which不能引导状语从句。
32. A 此题考查固定短语。feel at home意为感觉自在，符合题意“当我看见一些熟悉面孔时，我在新学校开始感觉自在”。at heart意为：在内心里，at will意为:随意，任意，at sight:一见。
33. D 此题考查形容词词义的掌握。所用句型“It would be+adj. for sb. to do sth.”.题意为：你四点钟来接我并带我去机场方便吗？convenient意为:方便的，便利的。free:自由的，空闲的。vacant: 空白的. handy: 手边的, 就近的; 便于使用的.均可排除。
34. B 此题考查名词词义的掌握。题意为：我仅花10元买了一件甩卖的裙子；真是一件便宜货。bargain意为：廉价货，便宜货。exchange: 交换, 交流; trade:贸易；business: 商业, 买卖;事情。
35. A 此题考查非谓语动词的用法。关键在于根据句意分清句子成分。句意为：露丝的新工作付给她的钱是她在饭店工作是所赚钱的两倍。working 是had made 的伴随状语，和主语she 构成逻辑上的主动关系，所以用现在分词做状语。可排除过去分词worked。不定式to work做状语常表示目的或结果。
单项填空题备考策略：
高考中的单项填空题虽然只有15道，但考查的知识点却几乎涉及到中学所学的所有语法项目，包括冠词、名词、代词、形容词、副词、介词、动词、连词、各类从句、倒装、it的用法等，此外，还有交际用语。考点虽然广泛，但却以动词为重点。从历届全国高考及各省的高考题来看，动词少则5道（占单选题总量的33.3%），多则8道（占单选题总量的53.3%）。动词的考点包括时态、语态、情态动词、非谓语动词、动词辨析、短语动词等，这些都是我们高考复习的重点。另外，就同一个考点来看，不同年代的高考题以及同一年代不同省市的高考题中，往往不少考点有雷同的现象，有的则几乎一模一样。常见的解题方法有以下四种可借鉴：
一、利用“有效信息”解题
单项填空题题干中某些句子或短语会为选择答案提供必要信息，它对选择正确答案起着决定性的作用，我们称这些句子或短语为“有效信息”。
二、利用“英汉语言差异”解题
近年来，日常交际用语仍然是单项填空题考查的重点之一。而且，这种题许多情况下是以英汉两种语言表达习惯的不同来命题的，解答这类题时，切记要撇弃中文思维。
三、利用“语法分析法”解题
单项填空题常考的语法项目有：时态和语态、非谓语动词、句式结构等。这类题许多情况下是放在一定的语言环境中来进行考查的。如果我们能结合试题的语言环境，并运用语法分析法，就会使很多难题迎刃而解
四、利用“标点提示”解题
标点符号虽小，但可以提供很多信息。例如：疑问句之后要用问号；感叹句之后要用感叹号；句中有逗号，可提示此处有可能为“非限制性定语从句”，也有可能为非谓语动词作状语等等。所以，由标点符号入手，我们可以确定做单项填空题的解题思路，从而既快捷又准确地获得答案
第二节 完型填空（共20小题；每小题 1 分，满分 20 分）
解析：
36. B flood意为淹没。break意为中断，断裂；sink: 下沉，crash: 碰撞, 坠落, 皆不合题意。
37.A 由于暴雨，很多要上班的人被迫回家。sb. be forced to do:某人被迫做某事。refuse意为拒绝，adjust:调整，校准，使…适应，gather:聚集，集合。
38. C call a taxi:叫出租车。order，命令，订购（货物等），点（菜）。
39. C 从上文a terrible rainstorm可知是勇敢的面对暴风雨。climate指气候，不是具体某天的天气。scenery：风景，景色；burden：担子，负担。
40. D happen to be:碰巧是…，表示“我碰巧是那天早晨上班赶路的人的其中之一”。其他三个选项都能和不定式to do/be 搭配，但意思不符。used to be:曾经是，promise to do: 许诺做…，deserve to be: 值得是,应受…。
41. D 我意外的发现大部分的地铁路线的服务都停了。 practice：实践，练习。routine：常规；惯例；例行公事。process：过程，进程。
42. B through指从内部穿过。through crowds of people意为穿过人群。
43. A operate:运行，工作。表示“终于找到一条还在运行的地铁线”。
44. D board the subway意为：上地铁。board:上（船，车，飞机）。
45. D 意为：有太多人等着上地铁以至于我甚至不能挤上去站台的楼梯。只有platform 和地铁有关。
46. C 句意为：在过了好像一辈子那么久的时间后，火车终于到达了我（要到达）的站点。reach:及物动词，到达。pause:暂停, park：停车，都是不及物动词，不合题意。
47. A 因为下着大雨，所以应是“我”全身湿透了。与虚弱，疾病，受伤都不相关。
48. B 到达后的状态是精疲力竭的，气馁的，因为冒雨赶路的辛苦。ashamed意为：羞愧的，惭愧的，surprised:吃惊的，puzzled:困惑的，不解的。都不合题意。
49. B be about to do…when 固定句型，意为：正要做…这时…，不能用其他词代替。
50. D eventually意为：最终，终于。“我”的上司感谢我们做出努力，最终来报到上班。hardly：几乎不，casually：随意地，absolutely ：绝对地。
51. A 句意为：有时候像这样，当员工们如此明显表现出他们对工作的忠于职守时，总是令人安慰的。devotion意为：热爱，忠诚。donation：捐赠，connection：联系，reaction：反应。
52. C 通过上文的short 可看出，信息是简短的。accurate：准确的, 精密的，urgent：紧急的，humorous：幽默的。
53. B appreciation:感激，从上文可知上司给他写的是感谢信。意为“几句感谢的话有很大影响”。
54. A 从上文中的找车，挤车可以看出是交通上的麻烦事，而不是交通信号或是规则。
55．D refresh使精力恢复; 使精神振作,通过下文的“put a smile back on my face”可选择，与上文的“tied and upset”相反。
完形填空备考策略：
完形填空一般从交待背景开始，依次推进，直至高潮，而后结局，环环相扣，条理十分清楚，层次异常分明。故在平时训练解答完形填空时，笔者认为以下策略值得注意

D推理判断题。由倒数第二段“Club members started doing things like recycling, picking up litter and planting trees as well as inviting other kids to join their club”和最后一段的“"We try to tell kids that it's not OK to be lazy," she explains. "You need to start being a responsible, environmentally friendly person now, right away, before you become a resource-sucking adult.".’可知向孩子们发出了号召和呼吁，积极行动起来去保护自然，做一个有责任感的，为环境负责的人。
阅读理解备考策略：
１．平时练习应以考纲为标准，熟悉各种文体，而不以自己的好恶为标准
２．对一些常用又重要的单词，我们需要对其重新加以认识，可以把这些词进行归纳、比较式地查词典，全面了解这些词的用法
３．要特别注意能力考查方面的题目
我们在阅读过程中，既理解具体的事实，也要理解抽象的概念；既理解字面意思，也理解深层次含义，包括作者的态度，思想等；同时，根据所给材料，进行必要，合理的判断，推理和慨括。最常见的是三种类型的题。
①文章的主旨大意。一篇文章一个段落常是围绕一个中心，一个话题展开的。要弄清文章或段落的中心意思，就需要平时注意培养自己的归纳和概括等方面的能力。
②文章的深层含义。每篇文章都有其作用，作者往往期待读者读了文章以后能明白某个道理或体会到某个意思，而这些有时并不是明确直言的，故而读者应在通篇理解的基础上去体会文章中隐含的意义。
③文章的推理判断。此类题就是测试考生的推理判断能力。要求考生针对材料中提供的局部事实，如开篇一两句话，乃至整个段落的信息作归纳，以得出正确的结论。
4. 精读、泛读、快速阅读相结合，提高阅读能力
英语与其它学科有所不同，它更加强调知识的不断积累知识的过程中提高语感，唯有精读、泛读有机结合，才能使知识积累更加有效。
5、运用正确的阅读技巧和方法，进行有效阅读，巧答阅读理解：
略读法：
略读法是快速阅读中的一种方法，通常又称为浏览。略读的关键是在能抓住文章要点的前提下以个人最快的速度阅读，主要目的是获得足够的信息以便准确地回答有关文章主旨和大意的问题。利用略读法做阅读时，要特别注意文章首尾两段，因为文章的第一段往往点明文章的主题，或中心思想，或作者的意图，而文章的最后一段则常常总结归纳或重述文章的主要内容。要学会寻找文章段落的主题句，这是高效省时抓住段落大意的一条捷径，同时也是准确理解全文大意的有效途径，因为把整篇文章的每段主题句的意思综合起来实际上就是全文的中心思想。另外，文章的主题句有时可能会出现在段落中间或结尾，考生必须运用略读法快速准确地找到它。
查阅法 ：
考生从文段中获得所需的具体信息，可以不需要阅读整篇文章，而只需找出可能包含所需信息的部分，然后加以阅读就行，这种方法就是查阅法。查阅法主要是获得具体的信息，回答具体的问题，即测试中的细节问题，它常常与5W和1H，即Who，What，When，Where，Why和How有关，有时跟具体的数字如长度、宽度、高度、距离、大小、尺寸等有联系。考生在使用查阅法时，应该注意文章的结构和顺序排列，文章的结构有的是按时间顺序排列，有的是按空间顺序排列，有的是按逻辑顺序排列。弄清楚文章的排列顺序能帮助考生在阅读和回答问题时做到高效省时，准确无误。要注意提高阅读的速度和解题效率，考生必须学会用眼睛扫读的本领，在最短的时间内找到所需的信息，要把注意力集中在与所需信息直接相关的词语上，以便迅速做出正确选择。
根据上下文判断词义法 ：.
考生应该有意识地积累英语单词，没有一定量的英语单词作基础和保障，英语的听、说、读、写、译等各项技能都无从谈起。考生可以根据“词不离法”的原则，把一个生词放在具体的句子语境中记忆。另外还可以采用下列方法积累单词：转换法(同一个单词可能同时具备名词、动词、形容词、副词等词性)、词缀法(在某个单词前面或后面加一些词缀，可能改变单词的词性和词意，使之成为一个新单词)、派生法、合成法等，也可以从影视广播和报刊杂志中获得英语词汇。
同义互释法 ：
所谓同义互释，就是在阅读的时候从备选项中找出与原文意思相同或相近的词、词组或短语，它们在意思上相同或相近，可以互相解释，互相替换，这种阅读方式叫做同义互释法。它是英语阅读理解的常见方法之一，在高考中有些深层理解或者判断推理的问题可以采用同义互释法。
判断推理法 ：
利用略读法、查阅法和猜测词义法能够解决答题中的许多问题。可是，在答题的时候，考生有时会发现所给的四个题项中，有不止一个选项可以作为答案项，这时就应该意识到该题是一个判断推理题了。在答题时，考生一旦发现有一个看似正确的选项，就立即把它作为正确答案的备选项，这是不明智的，正确的方法是再看一看其他选项中还有没有更完备的答案。如果有别的备选答案的话，就要根据文章的主旨和作者的意图，选择比较，去伪存真，做出深层理解和全面分析，进行合理的推理和判断，选出切合文章主旨和作者意图的最佳答案。
总之，做阅读理解，考生应该从整体上或者说从宏观上把握一篇文章的脉络，一定要明确每一段的大意，理解文章的中心思想和作者的行文思路，这是做阅读理解获取高分的基础和前提条件。1
第II卷（共45分）
第四部分：书面表达（共两节，满分45分）
第一节：阅读表达（共5 小题；每小题3分，满分15 分）
解析：
76. shopping, drinking, playing computer games, working, watching TV, taking drugs.
第一段中最全面的概括了能使人成瘾的事情。”alcohol or drugs”, ”compulsive shoppers” ,”their work”, ”watching TV or playing computer games”.考生要注意语言的表达，题目要求”list three activities”, 所以注意用名词或动名词来回答。
77. The reason why some people/ shopaholics have shopping addiction
The possible reasons for shopaholism/ shopping addition
第三段第一句The question is: why do they have this addiction?提出了问题，下文都是对此做出的解答。所以变换一下表达方式就可以得出准确的答案。
78. cause/ bring about/ result in many problems
关键是上下文要连贯。上文提到，购物癖看起来是没有害处的瘾，但是…，所以要从有害的角度来说；下文也是从这个角度谈论的。
79. If this is the case, people addicted to shopping should go to a support group to help them break this habit.
Accordingly：根据情况来说，同原文中的“If this is the case”------如果这是事实的话，意思接近。 turn to…for help:求助…。找到这两个关键地方就能准确找出答案。
80. 他们购物成瘾，而且通常买的都是用不着的东西。（他们购物上瘾，常买些不需要的东西。）
be hooked on意为：成迷，上瘾，是关键短语。“that they don’t need”是things 的定语从句。
阅读表达备考策略：
1.了解和把握题型设置
1．What is the best title of the passage? (Please answer within 10 words)
（1）通常为短语或短句, 力求精辟、简洁；
（2） 实词首字母大写虚词首字母小写;
（3）若虚词位于句首大写;
（4）只大写第一个单词的首字母；
2．Regular Wh-Questions based on the passage
对于封闭性问题，应结合文章相关内容，在文中找答案及依据；
3．Please fill in the blank in the passage with proper words or phrases.
仔细斟酌上下文，捕捉文章的具体信息，认真推敲语言，力求准确到位；
4．开放性问题
① What would you do if you were…
② What other suggestions would you give?
③ How would you settle the problem if you were …?
对于开放性问题，应在理解文章的基础上结合自己的观点组织答案。
5． Translate the underlined sentence into Chinese.
分析句子结构，判断句子成分间的关系，既要符合句子原意，又要注意汉语句子的通顺和达意；
如：A young college student, who was admitted to a wrong speciality (专业) of an
undesirable college, abandoned himself to playing truant (逃学) and was given to
drinking instead of studying.
be admitted to 被……录取
abandon oneself to (doing) sth. 沉湎于……；放纵；
be given to (doing) sth. 沉湎/迷于……；
翻译参考答案：
“由于被录取到一所不满意的大学，专业也不对口，一位年轻的大学生整日沉迷于旷课酗酒中，没有心思学习。”
2.注意几点：
1）快速的浏览题目，做到心中有数，带着题目进行速读。
2）准确理解文章的大意、细节，把握作者的观点、态度、语气等，捕捉与题目有关的信息，为回答问题作好准备。
3）答题之前认真审题，弄清问题的要求，回答应具有针对性，紧扣题目，认真推敲语言，既要完整又要简洁。同时还要注意语言运用的准确性、得体性。
4）主旨大意题，要求词数比较少，所用语言要精辟、简洁。 答案应 符合标题要求，能概括出文章大意或作者的意图。
5）有的问题可以在文中找到答案及其依据，但是对于开放性问题，考生要结合自己的观点回答。
6）在做翻译题的时候，一定要结合句子所在的情景进行理解和翻译，并且把握好句子结构。

A
A year ago August, Dave Fuss lost his job driving a truck for a small company in west Michigan. His wife, Gerrie, was still working in the local school cafeteria, but work for Dave was scarce, and the price of everything was rising. The Fusses were at risk of joining the millions of Americans who have lost their homes in recent years. Then Dave and Gerrie received a timely gift——＄7，000，a legacy (遗产) from their neighbors Ish and Arlene Hatch, who died in an accident . “It really made a difference when we were going under financially.” says Dave.
But the Fusses weren’t the only folks in Alto and the neighboring town of Lowell to receive unexpected legacy from the Hatches. Dozens of other families were touched by the Hatches’ generosity. In some cases, it was a few thousand dollars; in other, it was more than ＄100,000.
It surprised nearly everyone that the Hatches had so much money , more than ＄3 million—they were am elderly couple who lived in an old house on what was left of the family farm .
Children of the Great Depression, Ish and Arlene were known for their habit of saving. They thrived own (喜欢) comparison shopping and would routinely go from store to store, checking prices before making a new purchase .
Through the years, the Hatches paid for local children to attend summer camp when their parents couldn’t afford it. “Ish and Arlene never asked if you needed anything,” says their friend Sand Van Weelden, “They could see things they could do to make you happier, and they would do
them.
Even more extraordinary was that the Hatches had their farmland distributed. It was the Hatches’ wish that their legacy——a legacy of kindness as much as one of dollars and cent ——should enrich the whole community (社区) and last for generations to come.
Neighbors helping neighbors ——that was Ish and Arlene Hatch’s story .

C. They couldn’t afford expensive things

“In only six days I lost seven pounds of weight .”
“Two full inches in the first three days!”
These are the kinds of statements used in magazine, newspaper, radio and television ads,
promising new shapes and new looks to those who buy the medicine or the device of such products say they can shape the legs, slim the face, smooth wrinkles, or in some other way to beauty or desirability.
Often such products are nothing more than money-making things for their promoter. The results they produce are questionable, and some are dangerous to health.
To understand how these products can be legally promoted to the public, it is necessary to understand something of the laws covering their regulation. If the product is a drug, FDA(Food Drug Administration)can require proof (证明)under the Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act that it is safe and effective before it is put on the market. But if the product is a device, FDA has no authority to require premarketing proof of safety or effectiveness. If a product already on the market is a danger to health, FDA can request the producer or distributor to remove it from the market voluntarily, or it can take legal action ,including seizure (查封) of the product.
One notable case a few years ago involved an electrical device called the Relaxacisor, had been sold for reducing the waistline. The Relaxacisor produced electrical shocks to the body through contact pads. FDA took legal action against the distributor to stop the sale of the device on the grounds that it was dangerous to health and life.
Obviously, most of the devices on the market have never been the subject of court proceedings (法律诉讼), and new devices appear continually, Before buying, it is up to the consumer to judge the safety or effectiveness of such items.
61．It can be inferred that ads mentioned in the text are ______.
A. objective B. costly C. unreliable D. illegal
62．Which of the following is true according to the text?
A. The court is in charge of removing dangerous product.
B. New products are more likely to be questionable.
C. The production of a device must be approved by FDA.
D. The promoters usually just care about profits.
63.．FDA can ask for the proof of safety and effectiveness of a product ________.
A. if it is a drug
B. if it is a device
C. if its consumers make complaints
D. if its distributors challenge FDA’s authority
64．The Relaxacisor is mentioned as_______.
A. a product which was designed to produce electricity
B. a product whose distributor was involved in a legal case
C. a successful advertisement of a beauty product
D. an example of a quality beauty product
65. The author intends to __________
A. make consumers aware of the promoters’ false promises
B. show the weakness of the law on product safety
C. give advice on how to keep young and beautiful
D. introduce the organization of FDA
C
Few laws are so effective that you can see results just days after they take effect. But in the nine days since the federal cigarette tax more than doubled-----to $1.01 per pack----smokers have jammed telephone “quit lines” across the country seeking to kick the habit.
This is not a surprise to public health advocates. They’ve studied the effect of state tax increases for years, finding that smokers, especially teens, are price sensitive. Nor is it a shock to the industry, which fiercely fights every tax increase.
The only wonder is that so many states insist on closing their ears to the message. Tobacco taxes improve public health, they raise money and most particularly, they deter people from taking up the habit as teens, which is when nearly all smokers are addicted. Yet the rate of taxation varies widely.
In Manhattan, for instance, which has the highest tax in the nation, a pack of Marlboro Light Kings cost $10.06 at one drugstore Wednesday. In Charleston, S.C., where the 7-bent-a-pack tax is the lowest in the nation. The price was $4.78.
The influence is obvious.
In New York, high school smoking hit a new low in the latest surveys----13.8%,far below the national average. By comparison, 26% of high school students smoke in Kentucky, Other low-tax states have similarly depressing teen-smoking records.
Hal Rogers, Representative from Kentucky, like those who are against high tobacco taxes,
argues that the burden of the tax falls on low-income Americans “who choose to smoke.”
That’s true, But there is more reason in keeping future generations of low-income workers from getting hooked in the first place. As for today’s adults, if the new tax drives them to quit, they will have more to spend on their families, cut their risk of cancer and heart disease and feel better.
66 The text is mainly about___________.
A. the price of cigarettes B. the rate of teen smoking
C. the effect of tobacco tax increase D. the differences in tobacco tax rate
67 What does the author think is a surprise?
A. Teen smokers are price sensitive.
B. Some states still keep the tobacco tax low.
C. Tobacco taxes improve public health.
D. Tobacco industry fiercely fights the tax rise.
68. The underlined word "deter" in Paragraph 3 most probably means .
A. discourage B. remove C. benefit D. free
69. Rogers’attitude towards the low-income smokers might be that of .
A. tolerance B. unconcern C. doubt D. sympathy
70. What can we learn from the last paragraph?
A. The new tax will be beneficial in the long run.
B. Low-income Americans are more likely to fall ill.
C. Future generations will be hooked on smoking.
D. Adults will depend more on their families.

An increase in students applying to study economics at university is being attributed to (归因于)the global economic crisis awakening a public thirst for knowledge about how the financial system works.
Applications for degree courses beginning this autumn were up by 15% this January, according to UCAS, the Universities and Colleges Admissions Service. A spokesman for the Royal Economic Society said applications to do economics at A-level were also up.
Professor john Beath, the president of the society and a leading lecturer at St Andrews
University, said his first-year lectures-which are open to students from all departments-were drawing crowds of 400, rather than the usual 250.
“There are a large number of students who are not economics majors, who would like to learn something about it. One of the things I have done this year is to relate my teaching to contemporary events in a way that one hasn’t traditionally done.” He said.
University applications rose 7% last year, but there were rises above average in several subjects. Nursing saw a 15% jump, with people’s renewed interest in careers in the pubic sector(部门), which are seen as more secure in economic crisis.
A recent study showed almost two thirds of parents believed schools should do more to teach pupils about financial matters, and almost half said their children had asked them what was going on, although a minority of parents felt they did not understand it themselves well enough to explain.
Zack Hocking, the head of Child Trust Funds, said: “It’s possible that one good thing to arise from the downturn will be a generation that’s financially wiser and better equipped to manage their money through times of economic uncertainty.”
71. Professor John Beath’s lectures are .
A. given in a traditional way B. connected with the present situation
C. open to both students and their parents D. warmly received by economics
72. Careers in the public sector are more attractive because of their .
A. greater stability B. higher pay C. fewer applications D. better reputation
73. In the opinion of most parents, .
A. economics should be the focus of school teaching
B. more students should be admitted to universities
C. the teaching of financial matters should be strengthened.
D. children should solve financial problems themselves
74. According to Hocking, the global economic crisis might make the youngsters .
A. wiser in money management
B. have access to better equipment
C. confident about their future careers
D. get jobs in Child Trust Funds
75. What’s the main idea of the text?
A. Universities have received more applications.
B. Economics is attracting an increasing numbers students
C. College students benefit a lot from economic uncertainty
D. Parents are concerned with children’s subject selection.

第四部分 书面表达（共两节，满分45分）
第一节 阅读表达（共5小题；每小题3分，满分15分）
阅读下面短文，并根据短文后的要求答题（请注意问题后的字数要求）。
「1」Hello. It’s one of the first words we learn as babies, yet it’s one of the last ones we think to use as adults. That’s unfortunate, because saying hello is more than just saying hello- it is recognition of another’s worth. How might the world change – how might we change- if we mastered this word? To find out, I spent one month saying hello to every person I met. Here’s what I’ve learned.
「2」It can boost (促进) productivity. In one of the few studies ever done on this subject, Allan Allday, an assistant professor of special education at Oklahoma State University, had middle school teachers greet their students individually each morning. This exchange of greetings raised the kids’ productivity. School went from impersonal to personal, and that resulted in more class participation and better grades.
「3」 Environments influence friendliness. One study found that people in the city were kiss likely to one hands with a stranger than those in the countryside. And, researchers say, pleasant environments generally encourage more smiles and hellos than unpleasant one. My experience was similar. Whatever the reason, my urban hellos were answered far less often than my rural one Similarly, people in vacation spots, like the Jersey Shore, were far friendlier than those hurrying to work downtown.
「4」It’s a form of universal health insurance. It’s impossible to say hello without smiling. And smiling has been shown to lower blood pressure, relieve stress and boost happiness. Apparently, a smile creates a similar effect in the recipient (接受者)。
「5」So maybe we can make the world a better place by ____________. After a month of doing it. I feel lighter and more connected and I have a better sense of well-being.

Dear Tom,
I am now back China and sound. In this letter I would like to convey my heartfelt appreciation to you for your kind assistance in my English learning when I was in New York. Additionally, your generous help and tender care made me feel warmly welcomed and transformed my first American trip into a unforgettable memory.
I have been missing our English professor, Mr. Smith whose unusual cast of mind, wide and varied knowledge, together with a singular personal charm, combined to exert a strong influence on me. What about him recently? I desire to contact him for some suggestions on improving my listening ability. However, his email address is not available. So would you mind delivering it to me via the online mailbox?
I am more than delighted to invite you to join us to celebrate the Spring Festival -Chinese Lunar New Year so that I can repay your friendship. You can partner with me to have a try in lion dances ,which is extremely exciting. And the grand lantern festival parade will be bound to impress you. I assure you that you would enjoy visiting here as I did at you home.
With my best regards! Yours cordially, Li Hua

第二节 完形填空（共20小题；每小题1，满分20分）
参考译文：
尽管现在还是风清气爽的9月,孩子们已经在私下里谈论圣诞节计划和圣诞老人了。这就使得圣诞节前原本漫长的冬月显得更加令人难熬了。随着日子一天一天过去,孩子们的心情越发急切起来,渴盼着放学的铃声。每当铃声一响,除了戴维之外,所有的孩子都急冲冲地穿上外套往家冲去。
戴维是一个头发蓬乱、衣衫褴褛的男孩。我一直不明白戴维来自于何种家庭,他的妈妈究竟是一个什么样的人,在这么寒冷的冬天给孩子穿的衣服是这么的不合时宜——戴维没穿外套、棉靴子和手套。可有一种什么东西让戴维很特别,当然不是因为他特别聪明或举止得当而使自己与众不同,因为他的穿着显得他既不聪明,也不文雅。在我的记忆中,戴维的脸上总是挂着微笑。他很乐于帮助别人。每天放学以后,戴维都要排好班里的椅子、清洗板擦。我和他说话很少,他一般是笑着问我还需要他做些什么,然后感谢我让他留下来做事,接着就慢慢地往家去了。
几个礼拜过去了,就在圣诞节假期的前一天,孩子们渴望与激动的心情变得焦躁不安起来。我还记得随着最后一次放学铃声的响起,一群激动无比的孩子一下子潮拥出了校门。看着最后一批孩子离开了学校,我轻松地笑了。我猛然一回身,发现戴维静静地站在我的办公桌旁边。
“戴维,你不急着回家吗?”我问他。
“不急,”他轻轻回答。我正要准备回家,便对他说:嗯,我想椅子和板擦并不急着要你的服务,为什么不赶紧回家呢?
“我有东西送给你,”戴维说着从身后拿出一个用绳子和旧报纸包起来的小盒子。他把盒子递给了我,怯生生地说道:“打开看看!”我谢过他,接过盒子慢慢地拆开外包装,打开了盒盖。令我吃惊的是盒子是空的。我看了看戴维充满笑意的脸,转目再瞧瞧空空的盒子说道:“戴维,这盒子不错。可它怎么是空的啊?”
“哦,不,”戴维说道,“它里面盛满了爱。妈妈离世之前跟我说,爱这东西你既看不见又摸不着,除非你感觉到它的存在。你看见它了吗,老师?”
戴维脏兮兮的脸上洋溢着自豪的神情。我看着这张平时很少关注的脸蛋,泪水在眼眶里打转。
“是的,戴维。我能看见。”我回答。“谢谢你。”那年圣诞节过后,我和戴维成了好朋友。可以这么说这些年来,我再也没觉得他蓬乱的头发有丝毫的讨厌。我也从未忘记至今还放在我桌子上的那只小空盒子背后所赋予的深意。

A
Christopher Thomas, 27, was a writer by night and a teacher by day when he noticed he was always tired and was losing weight fast. Diagnosed with diabetes(糖尿病), Thomas would need to inject himself with insulin(胰岛素) three times a day for the rest of his life or risk nerve damage, blindness, and even death. And if that weren't bad enough, he had no health insurance.
After a month of feeling upset, Thomas decided he'd better find a way to fight back. He left Canton, Michigan for New York, got a job waiting tables, nicknamed himself the Diabetic Rockstar, and created diabeticrockstar.com, a free online community for diabetics and their loved ones—a place where over 1,100 people share personal stories, information, and resources.
Jason Swencki’s son, Kody, was diagnosed with type diabetes at six. Father and son visit the online children's forums(论坛) together most evenings. "Kody gets so excited, writing to kids from all over," says Swencki, one of the site's volunteers. "They know what he's going through, so he doesn't feel alone."
Kody is anything but alone: Diabetes is now the seventh leading cause of death in the United States, with 24 million diagnosed cases. And more people are being diagnosed at younger ages.
These days, Thomas's main focus is his charity（慈善机构）, Fight It, which provides medicines and supplies to people—225 to date—who can't afford a diabetic's huge expenses. Fight-it.org has raised about $23,000—in products and in cash. In May, Thomas will hold the first annual Diabetic Rockstar Festival in the Caribbean.
Even with a staff of 22 volunteers, Thomas often devotes up to 50 hours a week to his cause, while still doing his full-time job waiting tables. "Of the diabetes charities out there, most are putting money into finding a cure," says Bentley Gubar, one of Rockstar's original members. "But Christopher is the only person I know saying people need help now."
56. Which of the following is true of Christopher Thomas?
A. He needs to go to the doctor every day.
B. He studies the leading caue of diabetes
A. He has a positive attitude to this disease.
B. He encourages diabetics by writing articles.
57. Diabeitcrockstar.com was created for _________.
A. diabetics to communicate B. volunteers to find jobs
C. children to amuse themselves D. rock stars to share resources.
58. According to the text, Kody ______.
A. feel lonely because of his illness
B. benefits from diabeticrockstar.com
C. helps create the online kid’s forums
D. writes children’s stories online
59. What can we learn about Fight It?
A. It helps the diabetics in financial difficluties.
B. It orgamozes parties for volunteer once a year.
C. It offers less expensive medicine to diabetics.
D. It owns a well-known medical website.
60. The lsat paragraph suggests that Thomas ______.
A. works full-time in a diabetes charity B. employs 22 people for his website
C. helps diabetics in his own way D. ties to find a cure for diabetes
B
Ask someone what they have done to help the enviornment recently and they will almost certainly mention recycling. Recycling in the home is very important of course. However, being forced to recycle often means we already have more material than we need. We are dealing with the results of that over-consumption in the greenest way possible, but it would be far better if we did not need to bring so much material home in the first place.
The total amount of packaging increased by 12% between 1999 and 2005. It now makes up a third of a typical household’s waste in the UK. In many supermarkets nowadays food items are packaged twice with plastic and cardhoard.
Too much packaging is doing serious damage to the environment. The UK, for example, is running out of it for carring this unnecessary waste. If such packaging is burnt, it gives off greenhouse gases which go on to cause the greenhouse effect. Recycling helps, but the process itself uses energy. The solution is not to produce such itemss in the first place. Food waste is a serious problem, too. Too many supermarkets encourage customers to buy more than they need. However, a few of thmen are coming round to the idea that this cannot continue, encouraging customers to reuse their plastic bags, for example.
But this is not just about supermarkets. It is about all of us. We have learned to associate packaging with quality. We have learned to thinke that something unpackaged is of poor quality. This is especially true of food. But is also applies to a wide range of consumer products, which often have far more packaging than necessary.
There are signs of hope. As more of us recycle, we are beginning to realise just how much unnecessay material are collecting. We need to face the wastefulness of our consumer culture, but we have a moutain to climb.
61. What does the underlined phrase “over-consumption” refer to?
A. Using too much packaging.
B. Recycling too many wastes.
C. Making more products than necessary.
D. Having more material than is needed.
62. The author uses figures in Paragraph 2 to show _______.
A. the tendency of cutting household waste
B. the increase of packaging recycling
C. the rapid growth of super markets
D. the fact of packaging overuse
63. According to the text, recycling ______.
A. helps control the greeenhouse effect
B. means burning packaging for energy
C. is the solutiong to gas sortage
D. leads to a waste of land
64. What can be inferred from Paragraph 4?
A. Unpackaged products are of bad quality.
B. Supermarkets care more about packaging.
C. It is improper to judge quality by packaging.
D. Other products are better packaged than food.
65. What can we learn from the last paragraph?
A. Fighting wastefulness is difficult.
B. Needless material is mostly recycled.
C. People like collecting recyclable waste.
D. The author is proud of their consumer culture.
C
Rae Armantrout, who has been a poetry professor at the University of California San Diego(UCSD) for two decades, has won the 2010 Pulitzer Prize in the poetry category for her most recent book, “Versed”.
“I’m delighted and amazed at how much media recognition that the Pulitzer brings, as compared to even the National Book Critics Award, which I was also surprised and delighted to win,” said Armantrout.
“For a long time, my writing has been just below the media radar, and to have this kind of attention, suddenly, with my 10th book, is really surprising.”
Armantrout, a native Californian, received her bachelor’s degree at UC Berkeley, where she studied with noted poet Denise Levertov, and her master’s in creative writing from San Francisco State University. She is a founding member of Language Poets, a group in American poetry that analyzes the way language is used and raises questions to make the reader think.
In March, she won the National Book Critics Circle Award for “Versed.”
“This book has gotten more attention,” Armantrout said, “but I don’t feel as if it’s better.”
The first half of “Versed” focuses on the dark forces taking hold of the United States as it fought the war against Iraq. The second half looks at the dark forces casting a shadow over her own life after Armantrout was diagnosed with cancer in 2006.
Armantrout was shocked to learn she had won the Pulitzer but many of her colleagues were not. “Rae Armantrout is a unique voice in American poetry,” said Seth Lerer, head of Arts and Humanities at UCSD.
“Versed”, published by the Wesleyan University Press, did appear in a larger printing than
her earlier works, which is about 2,700 copies. The new edition is scheduled to appear in May.
66. According to Rae Armantrout, ____________.
A. her 10th book is much better
B. her winning the Pulitzer is unexpected
C. the media is surprised at her works
D. she likes being recognized by her readers
67. Which of the following is true of Rae Armantrout?
A. She published a poetry textbook.
B. She used to teach Denise Levertov.
C. She started a poets’ group with others.
D. She taught creative writing at UC Berkeley.
68. What can we learn about “Versed”?
A. It consists of three parts.
B. It is mainly about the American army.
C. It is a book published two decades ago.
D. It partly concerns the poet’s own life.
69. Rae Armantrout’s colleagues think that she ____________.
A. should write more B. has a sweet voice
C. deserves the prize D. is a strange professor
70. What can we learn from the text?
A. About 2,700 copies of “Versed” will be printed.
B. Cancer made Armantrout stop writing.
C. Armantrout got her degrees at UCSD.
D. “Versed” has been awarded twice.

第四部分 书面表达
第一节 阅读表达（共5小题；每小题3分，满分15分）
阅读下面短文并回答问题，然后将答案写到答题卡相应的位置上（请注意问题后的字数要求）。
[1]One out of many important things for the whole family to do is to have dinner together. Researchers began reporting the benefits of family dinner about a decade ago, focusing mainly on how it affects children. Studies show that those families who eat dinner at least 3 or 4 times a week together, benefit in many ways.
[2]Eating together helps families achieve open communication and build stronger and healthier relationships. Children have better grades at school and are better adjusted as teens and adults, and the entire family enjoys healthier nutrition. For many families, eating dinner together proves to be good and effective way to reduce the risk of youth rates of addiction, and helps to raise healthier children. It is also a great time to share the events of the day, discuss news and ideas and just be together and enjoy each other's company.
[3]During dinner time parents have better opportunity to show that they are the prior to their children. Sitting at the same table and sharing meals is where and when parents can find out more about their children's school performance, daily activities and attitudes toward life. When parents
have all this information they can better direct their kids toward positive things in life. They also have better chance to reduce the possibility that children will get involved with alcohol, tobacco, and illegal drugs.
[4]However, family researchers say that the benefits of family dinner by no means can be considered as automatic. Parents can sit down to dinner with their kids every day and achieve nothing. ____________________ if there is too much arguing going on, if there is no meaningful conversation or, what is even worse, if there is just plain silence during gathering.
76. What is the main idea of the text? (no more than 8 words)
________________________________________________________________________
77. Which sentence in the text is closest in meaning to the following one?
By having dinner together family members can have free exchange of information and develop closer ties among them.

21. —Do you think you could do without help?
—______. This is not the first time for me.
A. Take care B. Hurry up
C. Not exactly D. Don’t worry
解析：本题考查交际用语的使用。根据后置语境This is not the first time for me可知，答语应表示“没问题，别担心”之意，所以D项符合语境。
答案:D
22. If we sit near _______ front of the bus, we’ll have _______ better view.
A. 不填；the B. 不填；a C. the; a D. the；the
解析：本题考查冠词在具体语境中的使用。句意应为“如果我们坐在公共汽车的前部，就会有更好的视野。”表示“某空间内部的前部”时，front前要加定冠词the; have a good view是习惯搭配，表示“视野开阔，视野良好”之意；所以C项符合语境。
答案：C
23. I have a lot of readings _____ before the end of this term.
A. completing B. to complete
C. completed D. being completed高考资源
解析：本题考查非谓语动词的使用。句意应为“这个学期结束前，我要做很多阅读练习。”由于时间状语before the end of this term表达未来的时间，所以空格处使用动词不定式表示将来，充当readings的定语。
答案：B
24. That’s the new machine ______ parts are too small to be seen.
A. that B. which C. whose D. What
解析：本题考查定语从句的引导词。句意应为“那就是那台零部件小得几乎看不见的新机器。”空格处引导定语从句并且在从句中作定语使用，所以使用whose。
答案：C
25. I_______ have watched that movie —it’ll give me horrible dreams.
A. shouldn’t B. needn’t C. couldn’t D. mustn’t
解析：本题考查情态动词的用法。句意应为“我本来不应该看那部电影的----它会使我做噩梦的。”表示“本来不应该做而做了某事”用shouldn’t have done, 所以A项正确。
答案：A
26. Before the sales start, I make a list of ______ my kids will need for the coming season.
A. why B. what C.how D. which
解析：本题考查宾语从句的引导词。句意应为“在大甩卖开始前，我把孩子们在下个季节里要用到的东西列了一个清单。”分析句式结构可知，空格处在句中引导宾语从句且在从句中充当need的宾语，所以B项结构正确。which 引导名词性从句时多表示疑问且要有一个明确的范围。
答案:B
27. Sam _____ some knowledge of the computer just by watching others working on it.
A. brought up B. looked up C. picked up D. set up
解析：本题考查动词短语意义辨析。句意应为“山姆只是凭借看别人操作电脑就学到了一些电脑知识。”表示“学会”用pick up; pick up另外还有“捡起; 顺车接送,搭载；收拾，整理；重新开始；获得”等义；bring up 表示“抚养，教育；提出；呕吐”；look up 表示“向上看；（形势）好转，改善；查阅”；set up表示“建立，设置；造成，产生”。
答案:C
28. The school rules state that no child shall be allowed out of the school during the day, ______ accompanied by an adult.
A. once B. when C. if D. unless
解析：本题考查省略的状语从句的连接词。句意应为“学校规章规定：除非有成年人陪同，否则孩子们在校期间不能出学校。”表示“除非”用unless。该句式构成了“连词+过去分词”结构。
答案:D
29. The living room is clean and tidy, with a dining table already ______ for a meal to be cooked.
A. laid B. laying C. to lay D. being laid
解析：本题考查with复合结构的用法。with复合结构的构成是“with+宾语+宾语补足语”，由于table与lay(搁放)之间是逻辑上的动宾关系，所以空格处用过去分词表示被动。
答案:A
30. Up to now, the program ________ thousands of children who would otherwise have died.
A. would save B. saves
C. had saved D. has saved
解析：本题考查动词时态的用法。句意应为“截止到现在，这个项目已经挽救了成千上万的本来会死去的孩子的生命。”up to now是现在完成时态的标志，所以空格处使用现在完成时态。
答案:D
31. Your house is always so neat—how do you ______ it with three children?
A. manage B. serve C. adapt D. construct
解析：本题考查动词在具体语境中的使用。句意应为“你家里总是那么整洁-----家里有三个孩子，你是怎么设法做到的?” 表示“设法做成某事”用manage it。serve

答案:A

A. it B. that C. what D. one
解析：本题考查代词的用法。句意应为“帮助别人是一种习惯，一个你在很小时就能学会的习惯。”空格处与前句中的habit构成同位关系，所以选择D项。句中you can learn even at an early age是省略了关系代词that 的定语从句，that在定语从句中作learn的宾语使用。
答案:D
33. Those who suffer from headache will find they get ______ from this medicine.
A. relief B. safety C. defense D. shelter

第三部分 阅读理解（共20小题;每小题2分，满分40分）
阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
A
Christopher Thomas, 27, was a writer by night and a teacher by day when he noticed he was always tired and was losing weight fast. Diagnosed with diabetes(糖尿病), Thomas would need to inject himself with insulin(胰岛素) three times a day for the rest of his life or risk nerve damage, blindness, and even death. And if that weren't bad enough, he had no health insurance.
After a month of feeling upset, Thomas decided he'd better find a way to fight back. He left Canton, Michigan for New York, got a job waiting tables, nicknamed himself the Diabetic Rockstar, and created diabeticrockstar.com, a free online community for diabetics and their loved ones—a place where over 1,100 people share personal stories, information, and resources.
Jason Swencki’s son, Kody, was diagnosed with type diabetes at six. Father and son visit the online children's forums(论坛) together most evenings. "Kody gets so excited, writing to kids from all over," says Swencki, one of the site's volunteers. "They know what he's going through, so he doesn't feel alone."
Kody is anything but alone: Diabetes is now the seventh leading cause of death in the United States, with 24 million diagnosed cases. And more people are being diagnosed at younger ages.
These days, Thomas's main focus is his charity（慈善机构）, Fight It, which provides medicines and supplies to people—225 to date—who can't afford a diabetic's huge expenses. Fight-it.org has raised about $23,000—in products and in cash. In May, Thomas will hold the first annual Diabetic Rockstar Festival in the Caribbean.
Even with a staff of 22 volunteers, Thomas often devotes up to 50 hours a week to his cause, while still doing his full-time job waiting tables. "Of the diabetes charities out there, most are putting money into finding a cure," says Bentley Gubar, one of Rockstar's original members. "But Christopher is the only person I know saying people need help now."

答案:C
B
Ask someone what they have done to help the enviornment recently and they will almost certainly mention recycling. Recycling in the home is very important of course. However, being forced to recycle often means we already have more material than we need. We are dealing with the results of that over-consumption in the greenest way possible, but it would be far better if we did not need to bring so much material home in the first place.
The total amount of packaging increased by 12% between 1999 and 2005. It now makes up a third of a typical household’s waste in the UK. In many supermarkets nowadays food items are packaged twice with plastic and cardboard.
Too much packaging is doing serious damage to the environment. The UK, for example, is running out of it for carrying this unnecessary waste. If such packaging is burnt, it gives off greenhouse gases which go on to cause the greenhouse effect. Recycling helps, but the process itself uses energy. The solution is not to produce such items in the first place. Food waste is a serious problem, too. Too many supermarkets encourage customers to buy more than they need. However, a few of them are coming round to the idea that this cannot continue , encouraging customers to reuse their plastic bags, for example.
But this is not just about supermarkets. It is about all of us. We have learned to associate packaging with quality. We have learned to think that something unpackaged is of poor quality. This is especially true of food. But is also applies to a wide range of consumer products, which often have far more packaging than necessary.
There are signs of hope. As more of us recycle, we are beginning to realise just how much unnecessay material are collecting. We need to face the wastefulness of our consumer culture, but we have a moutain to climb.
61. What does the underlined phrase “over-consumption” refer to?
A. Using too much packaging.
B. Recycling too many wastes.
C. Making more products than necessary.
D. Having more material than is needed.
解析：词义猜测题。根据文中的We are dealing with the results of that over-consumption in the greenest way possible, but it would be far better if we did not need to bring so much material home in the first place. 可知划线部分意义应为“过度消费”，所以D项意义正确。
答案:D
62. The author uses figures in Paragraph 2 to show _______.
A. the tendency of cutting household waste
B. the increase of packaging recycling
C. the rapid growth of super markets
D. the fact of packaging overuse
解析：作者用意猜测题。根据作者在文中使用的数字可知，作者使用数字的目的是为了让读者清楚地理解过度包装的现实问题，所以D项正确。

B. Needless material is mostly recycled.
C. People like collecting recyclable waste.
D. The author is proud of their consumer culture.

答案:A
C
Rae Armantrout, who has been a poetry professor at the University of California San Diego(UCSD) for two decades, has won the 2010 Pulitzer Prize in the poetry category for her most recent book, “Versed”.
“I’m delighted and amazed at how much media recognition that the Pulitzer brings, as compared to even the National Book Critics Award, which I was also surprised and delighted to win,” said Armantrout.
“For a long time, my writing has been just below the media radar, and to have this kind of attention, suddenly, with my 10th book, is really surprising.”
Armantrout, a native Californian, received her bachelor’s degree at UC Berkeley, where she studied with noted poet Denise Levertov, and her master’s in creative writing from San Francisco State University. She is a founding member of Language Poets, a group in American poetry that analyzes the way language is used and raises questions to make the reader think.
In March, she won the National Book Critics Circle Award for “Versed.”
“This book has gotten more attention,” Armantrout said, “but I don’t feel as if it’s better.”
The first half of “Versed” focuses on the dark forces taking hold of the United States as it fought the war against Iraq. The second half looks at the dark forces casting a shadow over her own life after Armantrout was diagnosed with cancer in 2006.
Armantrout was shocked to learn she had won the Pulitzer but many of her colleagues were not. “Rae Armantrout is a unique voice in American poetry,” said Seth Lerer, head of Arts and Humanities at UCSD.
“Versed”, published by the Wesleyan University Press, did appear in a larger printing than her earlier works, which is about 2,700 copies. The new edition is scheduled to appear in May.

Batteries can power anything from small sensors to large systems. While scientists are finding ways to make them smaller but even more powerful, problems can arise when these batteries are much larger and heavier than the devices themselves. University of Missouri(MU) researchers are developing a nuclear energy source that is smaller, lighter and more efficient.
“To provide enough power, we need certain methods with high energy density(密度)”，said Jae Kwon, assistant professor of electrical and computer engineering at MU. “The
radioisotope(放射性同位素) battery can provide power density that is much higher than chemical batteries.”
Kwon and his research team have been working on building a small nuclear battery, presently the size and thickness of a penny, intended to power various micro / nanoelectromechanreal systems (M/NEMS). Although nuclear batteries can cause concerns, Kwon said they are safe.
“People hear the word ‘nuclear’ and think of something very dangerous,” he said, “However, nuclear power sources have already been safely powering a variety of devices, such as pace-makers, space satellites and underwater systems.”
His new idea is not only in the battery’s size, but also in its semiconductor(半导体). Kwon’s battery uses a liquid semiconductor rather than a solid semiconductor.
“The key part of using a radioactive battery is that when you harvest the energy, part of the radiation energy can damage the lattice structure(晶体结构) of the solid semiconductor,” Kwon said, “By using a liquid semiconductor, we believe we can minimize that problem.”
Together with J. David Robertson, chemistry professor and associate director of the MU Research Reactor, Kwon is working to build and test the battery. In the future, they hope to increase the battery’s power, shrink its size and try with various other materials. Kwon said that battery could be thinner than the thickness of human hair.
71. Which of the following is true of Jae Kwon?
A. He teaches chemistry at MU.
B. He developed a chemical battery.
C. He is working on a nuclear energy source.
D. He made a breakthrough in computer engineering.
解析：细节理解题。根据第三段的叙述可知Kwon在研究一种原子能电池，所以C项正确。
答案:C
72. Jae Kwon gave examples in Paragraph 4_________.
A. to show chemical batteries are widely applied.
B. to introduce nuclear batteries can be safely used.
C. to describe a nuclear-powered system.
D. to introduce various energy sources.
解析：细节理解题。根据文章第四段可知Kwon举例的目的是为了说明原子能电池是安全的，所以B项正确。
答案:B

A
Arthur Miller(1915-2005)is universally recognized as one of the greatest dramatists of the 20th century. Miller’s father had moved to the USA from Austria Hungary. Drawn like so many other by the “Great American Dream” However, he experienced severe financial hardship when his family business was ruined in the Great Depression of the early l930s.
Milles's most famous play, Death of a SaIesman, is a powerful attack on the American system, with its aggressive way of doing business and its insistence on money and social status as indicators of worth. In Willy Loman, the hero of the play, we see a man who has got into double with his worth. Willy is “burnt out” and in the cruel world of business there is no room for sentiment : if he can't do the work, then he is no good to his employer, the Wagner Company, and he must go. Willy is painfully aware of this, and at loss as to what to do with his lack of success. He refuses to face the fact that he has failed and kills himself in the end.
When it was first staged in 1949 ,the play was greeted with enthusiastic reviews, and it won the Tony Award for Best Play, the New York Drama Critics` Circle Award, and the Pulitzer Prize for Drama. It was the first play to win all three of these major awards.
Miller died of hear failure at his home in Roxbury, Connecticut, on the evening of February 10,2005,the 56th anniversary of the first performance of Death of a Salesman on Broadway.[
The quality of the books was of great concern to the Richters. Rather than sign up online, they went to Dollywood for a look-see. “We didn’t want to give the children rubbish,” says Linda. The books-reviewed each year by teachers, literacy specialists and Dollywood board members-included classics such as Ezra Jack Keats’s The Snowy Day and newer books like Anna Dewdney’s Llama Llama series.
Satisfied, the couple set up the Richter Family Foundation and got to work. Since 2004, they
have shipped more than 12,200 books to preschoolers in their in their area. Megan Williams, a mother of four, is more than appreciative: “This program introduces us to books I’ve never heard of .”
The Richters spend about ＄400 a month sending books to 200 children. “Some people sit there and wait to die,” says Tim. “Others get as busy as they can in the time they have left.”
56. Why did Arthur Miller' s father move to the USA?
A. He suffered from severe hunger in his home country.

Tim Richter and his wife, Linda, had taught for over 30 years near Buffalo, New York--he in computers, she in special education. "Teaching means everything to us," Tim would say. In April1998, he learned he would need a heart operation. It was the kind of news that leads to some serious thinking about life's purpose.
Not long after the surgery, Tim saw a brochure describing Imagination Library, a program started by Dolly Parton' s foundation (基金会) that mailed a book every month to children from birth to age five in the singer's home town of Sevier, Tennessee.“I thought, maybe Linda and I could do something like this when we retire," Tim recalls. He placed the brochure on his desk, "as a reminder."
Five years later, now retired and with that brochure still on the desk, Tim clicked on imagination library .com. The program had been opened up to partners who could take advantage of book and postage discounts.
62.What did Tim want to do after learning about Imagination Library?

Diana Jacobs thought her family had a workable plan to pay for college for her 21-year-old twin sons: a combination of savings, income, scholarships, and a modest amount of borrowing. Then her husband lost his job, and the plan fell apart.
“I have two kids in college, and I want to say ‘come home,’ but at the same time I want to provide them with a good education,” says Jacobs.
The Jacobs family did work out a solution: They asked and received more aid form the schools, and each son increased his borrowing to the maximum amount through the federal loan (贷款) program. They will each graduate with $20,000 of debt, but at least they will be able to finish school.
With unemployment rising, financial aid administrators expect to hear more families like the Jacobs. More students are applying for aid, and more families expect to need student loans. College administrators are concerned that they will not have enough aid money to go around.
At the same time, tuition（学费）continues to rise. A report from the National Center for Public Policy and Higher Education found that college tuition and fees increased 439% from 1982 to 2007, while average family income rose just 147%. Student borrowing has more than doubled in the last decade,
“If we go on this way for another 25years, we won’t have an affordable system of higher education,” says Patrick M. Callan, president of the center. “The middle class families have been financing it through debt. They will send kids to college whatever it takes, even if that means a huge amount of debt.”
Financial aid administrators have been having a hard time as many companies decide that student loans are not profitable enough and have stopped making them. The good news, however, is that federal loans account for about three quarters of student borrowing, and the government says that money will flow uninterrupted.
66. According to Paragraph 1, why did the plan of Jacobs family fail?
A. The twins wasted too much money.
B. the father was out of work.
C. Their saving ran out.
D. The family fell apart.
67. How did the Jacobs manage to solve their problem?
A. They asked their kids to come home.
B. They borrowed $20,000 from the school.
C. They encouraged their twin sons to do part-time jobs.
D. They got help from the school and the federal government.
68. Financial aid administrators believe that _______.
A. more families will face the same problem as the Jacobses
B. the government will receive more letters of complaint
C. college tuition fees will double soon
D. America’s unemployment will fall
69. What can we learn about the middle class families from the text?
A. They blamed the government for the tuition increase.
B. Their income remained steady in the last decade.
C. They will try their best to send kids to college.
D. Their debts will be paid off within 25 years.
70. According to the last paragraph, the government will .
A. provide most students will scholarships
B. dismiss some financial aid administrators
C. stop the companies from making student loans

D
Since the 1970s, scientists have been searching for ways to link the brain with computers.
Brain-computer interface(BCI) technology could help people with disabilities send commands to machines.
Recently, two researchers, Jose Millan and Michele Tavella from the Federal Polytechnic school in Lausanne, Switzerland, demonstrated（展示）a small robotic wheelchair directed by a person’s thoughts.
In the laboratory, Tavella operated the wheelchair just by thinking about moving his left or right band. He could even talk as he watched the vehicle and guided it with his thoughts.
“our brain has billions of nerve ceils. These send signals through the spinal cord（脊髓）to the muscles to give us the ability to move. But spinal cord injuries or other conditions can prevent these weak electrical signals from reaching the muscles,” Tavella says. “Our system allows disabled people to communicate with external world and also to control devices.”
The researchers designed a special cap for the user. This head cover picks up the signals from the scalp(头皮) and sends them to a computer. The computer interprets the signals and commands the motorized wheelchair. The wheelchair also has two cameras that identify objects in its path. They help the computer react to commands from the brain.
Prof. Millan, the team leader, says scientists keep improving the computer software that interprets brain signals and turns them into simple commands. “The practical possibilities that BCI technology offers to disabled people can be grouped in two categories: communication, and controlling devices. One example is this wheelchair.”
He says his team has set two goals. One is testing with real patients, so as to prove that this is a technology they can benefit from. And the other is to guarantee that they can use the technology over long periods of time.
A. help to update computer systems B. link the human brain with computers
C. help the disabled to recover D. control a person's thoughts
72. How" did Tavella operate the wheelchair in the laboratory?
A. By controlling his muscles. B. By talking to the machine.
C. By moving his hand. D. By using his mind.
73. Which of the following shows the path of the signals described in Paragraph 5?
A. scalp→computer→cap→wheelchair
B. computer→cap→scalp→wheelchair
C. scalp→cap→computer→wheelchair
D. cap→computer→scalp→wheelchair
74. The team will test with real patients to
A. make profits from them B. prove the technology useful to them
C. make them live longer D. learn about their physical condition
75. Which of the following would be the best title for the text?
A. Switzerland, the BCI Research Center
B. New Findings About How the Human Brain Works
C. BCI Could Mean More Freedom for the Disabled
D. Robotic Vehicles Could Help to Cure Brain Injuries

第四部分书面表达(共两节，满分45分)
第一节阅读表达(第76题2分， 77、78、80题每题3分，第79题4分，满分l5分)
阅读下面短文并回答问题，然后将答案写到答题卡相应的位置上(请注意问题后的词数要求)。
[ 1 ] Do you spend over an hour each day texting messages to your friends? Do you frequently ignore work, study, and other activities to check your phone for messages? Are you anxious and restless if you are separated from your mobile phone,9 Do you hardly ever use your phone to talk any more, and do your thumbs hurt from texting too much?
[2] If , then it is very possible that you are a textaholic. A textaholic can be defined as someone who is addicted to sending and receiving messages. The main symptoms are a strong desire to text messages, which takes precedence (优先)over everything else, and bad moods, low spirits and a lack of self-confidence if messages fail to come in. The root of the problem, as with many addictions, is the desire to escape from emotional difficulties such as stress, anxiety and relationship problems. Experts warn that text addiction is likely to become the most common form of addiction in the future, especially among the young.
[3] So what can you do if you think you may be a textaholic? The key is to get your life back in balance. Make sure you resist the urge to answer every message you receive, and consider leaving your mobile phone behind occasionally when you go out. Most importantly, make a point of spending quality time with friends and family, and make time to re-learn the art of face-to-face conversation instead of conducting your relationships by means of text messages. Not only will you save time and money, but you may also rediscover the pleasure of true communication.
76. How does the author introduce the topic of the text? (no more than 5 words)
77. Fill in the blank in Paragraph 2 with proper words. (no more than 8 words)
78. What emotional difficulties may be the causes of text addiction? (no more than 5 words)

A. you’d better not B. I’m afraid not C. as you wish D. that’s all right

23.Find ways to praise your children often,_____ you’ll find they will open their hearts to you.
A. till B. or C. and D. but
解析：C.考并列连词用法，分析前后分句逻辑关系，是条件或假设关系，而且“祈使句+and/or/otherwise…”固定句型所以选C.
24.The two girls are so alike that strangers find_____ difficult to tell one from the other.
A. it B. them C, her D. that
解析：A。考查固定句型。句意：这两个小女孩如此相像，以至于很难辨别出彼此。此句式it 做形式宾语的结构如下find/make/consider/suppose等+it+adj/n+to do/that….。
25.They are broadening the bridge to _______ the flow of traffic.

解析：B.考查短语意义辨析。句意：他们加宽大桥以加速交通流量。A.意为“推迟” C意为“打开”D.意为“计算出，做出”。
26.I’m afraid he’s more of a talker than a doer, which is______ her never finishes anything.
A. that B. when C. where D. why
解析：D。考查表语从句。句义：我恐怕他比起来一个实践家更是一个空谈家，那就是他一事无成的原因。本文“which is..”引导的一个非限定性定语从句中有一个表语从句根据句意用“why”引导。
27.Look over there-there’s a very long, winding path_____ up to the house.
A. leading B. leads C. led D. to lead
解析：A。本题是考察非谓语动词“leading up to”做定语修饰“Path”，意味“通向房子的路”。而且leading up to the house 可以换成“which leads up to the house”和“ path”是主动关系，所以用现在分词作后置定语。B 不是非谓语动词，C为过去分词表示被，而 “lead to”这个短语只有主动用法，D不定式表将来未发生。
28. He had his camera ready_______ he saw something that would make a good picture.
A. even if B. if only C. in case D. so that
解析：C。考查状语从句引导词。句意“他准备好了相机以防看到可以拍摄的景物。”in case 为“以防；以免”even if为“即使”if only 为“如果…”,so that “为了，以便”。
29.-Are you going to Tom’s birthday party?
-_____.I might have to work.
A. It depends B. Thank you C. Sounds great D. Don’t mention it
解析：A。此题为考查交际用语。句意“--你要去参加汤姆的生日聚会吗？--看情况而定。我可能得工作。”根据回答的后半句推测句意选A.C为“听起来不错”,用于接受某人的提议 D为“不用提了”用于回答别人说“thank you”.
30.I’m sorry I didn’t phone you, but I’ve been very busy_____ the past couple of weeks.
A. beyond B. with C. among D. over
解析：D。考查时态。通过前半句“I’ve been very busy”现在完成时，可知搭配用的时间状语为“在过去的几周里”，固定搭配用介词“over the past couple of weeks=in the past couple of weeks”.
31.When I got on the bus, I_____ I had left my wallet at home. A. was realizing B. realized C. have realized D. would realize
解析：B。此题考查时态。根据前半句“when I got on the bus”为明确的过去的时间状语，因此和一般过去时搭配。
32.The old town has narrow streets and small houses _____are built close to each other.
A. they B. where C. what D. that
解析：D。此题考察定语从句的引导词。句意：“这个老城镇拥有建的彼此靠近的狭窄的街道和狭小的房屋”。定语从句中缺少主语指物，因此用 that 。
33.We’ve offered her the job, but I don’t know______ she’ll accept it.

A. had been eating B. had eaten C. have eaten D. have been eating
解析：B.此题考查时态。句意“她吃惊的发现冰箱空了；这个孩子吃掉了所有的东西！”。据前半句可知，孩子吃掉东西这个动作是发生在“was surprised”之前，因此用过去完成时。
【评析】：今年的单选考题可以说难度适中而且和课标及考试说明强调的重点考查点吻合，并且以往的一些较难的语法项目，如虚拟语气，非谓语动词一些较难的用法都没有出现，较为偏和难的词汇和低频词汇没有在考查的行列，这和公布的关于教材的一些较难部分语法和词汇的删减说明是吻合的。如时态题目考了3道，从句的题目4道涉及到定语从句，表语从句，状语从句，宾语从句覆盖面比较全，还有非谓语动词1道考题且仅为“-ing”形式做定语，考查词汇和短语意义的2道及固定句型2道，和交际用语2道，冠词1道。

【语篇解读】本文介绍了今年学生贷款增多给家庭带来的压力和大学学费的不断增加的社会问题，提出政府对之做出的回应。
66.B． 推理判断题。第一段提到Diana Jacobs的家庭本来有一个可行的计划可以支付两个双胞胎儿子的大学费用，可由于丈夫的失业计划瓦解了。
67.D．推理判断题。第三段指出解决方案solution 是向学校索求更多的援助，每个儿子增加贷款到最大额度。如原文“They asked and received more aid from the schools, and each son increased his borrowing to the maximum amount through the federal loan (贷款) program.”，也即是选项B。
68. A。细节推断题。由第四段“expect to hear more families like the Jacobs”可以得知 财政援助的管理员们预期会看到更多像Jacobs一家的情况，同义转换即选项A。而BD原文没有提到，C 从第五段“Student borrowing has more than doubled in the last decade”,可知在过去10年里已经长了一倍还多，因此是错的。

第Ⅱ卷(共45分)
第四部分书面表达(共两节，满分45分)
第一节阅读表达(第76题2分， 77、78、80题每题3分，第79题4分，满分l5分)
【解析】：
76.By asking/raising questions.仔细审题，此题目是问及作者组织文章的方式，即如何提出话题的。分析本文的文体是议论文，议论文的写作结构是“引出话题—陈述论点—论证论点—小结论点”，通过开头第一段可以看出引出话题的方式是通过问问题。
77. you answer “yes” to any of the questions。此题是补全题，考查上下文理解和补全的能力。通过上文看是提出一些假设的问题，所以空所在的这句是上下段的过渡句，因此应填答案。
78. stress anxiety relationship problems。此题是细节理解题目，依据在第二段第二句话，另外要注意字数限制，因此也考查学生搜索信息和概括的能力。
79. It may become the most common form of addiction , especially among the young.此题要求回答问题且有字数限制，原文提到“Experts warn that text addiction is likely to become the most common form of addiction in the future, especially among the young.”而回答是要对这句话的信息进行同义的转换和重组，在字数之内。
80.How to get rid of text addiction.此题是概括main idea的题目，因此综合论说文的特点，概括大意如上。
【评析】较往年山东卷高考阅读表达，今年的阅读表达考题形式有了创新，值得我们去研究。总起来说阅读表达题型的考查能力还是学生的语篇分析和理解能力及准确语言表述能力。新类型的题目如76题考查学生对特定文体的写作特征的了解，78、79题考查搜索信息，解决问题及概括、重组信息的能力。
第二节写作(满分30分)
假设你是李华，你的美国朋友Tom上个月来到北京学习。七月份你将去北京参加暑期中学生英语演讲比赛(speech contest)，你在资料搜集、语言运用等方面遇到了困难。请根据以下
要点给Tom写一封电子邮件：
1．询问Tom的生活和学习情况；
2．谈谈你的困难并请Tom帮忙；
3．告诉Tom你打算赛后去看他。
注意：1．词数：120—150；
2．可适当增加细节，以使行文连贯。
【评析】今年的作文题目仍然是电子邮件，仍然突出了英语语言学习中语言运用和交际的目的。题目给出语言运用的情境，还有写作的要点提示，但注意了所给出的要点仅是文章应包括的内容，而非具体的语言信息，所以考生便不能做逐句的翻译。由此可看出山东省作文的命题趋势还是热点在应用文体裁，内容更贴近中学生的日常生活和交际的需求，因此学生写起来更为有素材，形式上给出要点但又有相当的写作的自由度和给学生想象和创造的空间。
【总评】
在山东省新课程改革和素质教育改革逐步推进的大背景下，对高考题目的改革和创新就尤为重要和关键。今年的高考试题就呈现出难度适中，稳中求变的趋势。在新课程下教材难度加大，教学时间缩紧，教学和学习任务就略显紧张。山东省因此作出了对教材难度的要求和删减的补充说明，并且在今年的高考试卷中体现了对试题难度的把握，达到了高考试卷教学的引导作用。为此我们作为一线的教师要认真研究课程标准和教材和高考要求，综合把握好教学内容、教学进度和难度。总之，高中英语教学以学生语言的综合实践能力的培养为目标，教学过程要做到教学中以学生为中心的教学方式的改变，重视学生的基础词汇、语法知识的学习和听说读写能力、学习策略、情感态度、文化意识的综合培养，希望我们的高考题目会在形式上有更多的创新和灵活，这样更能使我们的教学摆脱以应试为重心，更好的推动素质教育的改革。

A
The Pacific island nation of Nauru used to be a beautiful place. Now it is an ecological disaster area. Nauru’s heartbreaking story could have one good consequence — other countries might learn from its mistakes.
For thousands of years, Polynesian people lived the remote island of Nauru, far from western civilization. The first European to arrive was John Fearn in 1798. He was the British captain of the Hunter, a whaling ship. He called the island Pleasant Island.
However, because it was very remote, Nauru had little communication with Europeans at first. The whaling ships and other traders began to visit, bringing guns and alcohol. These elements destroyed the social balance of the twelve family groups on the island. A ten-year civil war started, which reduced the population from 1,400 to 900.
Nauru’s real troubles began in 1899 when a British mining company discovered phosphate (磷酸盐)on the island. In fact, it found that the island of Nauru was nearly all phosphate, which is a very important fertilizer for farming. The company began mining the phosphate.
A phosphate mine is not a hole in the ground; it is a strip mine. When a company strip-mines, it removes the top layer of soil. Then it takes away the material it wants. Strip-mining totally destroys the land. Gradually, the lovely island of Nauru started to look like the moon.
In 1968, Nauru became one of the richest countries in the world. Every year the government received millions and millions of dollars for its phosphate.
Unfortunately, the leaders invested the money unwisely and lost millions of dollars. In addition, they used millions more dollars for personal expenses. Soon people realized that they had a terrible problem — their phosphate was running out. Ninety percent of their island was destroyed and they had nothing. By 2000, Nauru was financially ruined. Experts say that it would take approximately $433,600,000 and more than 20 years to repair the island. This will probably never happen.
56. What might be the author’s purpose in writing the text?
A. To seek help for Nauru’s problems.
B. To give a warning to other countries
C. To show the importance of money
D. To tell a heartbreaking story of a war.
57. What was Nauru like before the Europeans came?
A. Rich and powerful B. Modern and open
C. Peaceful and attractive D. Greedy and aggressive
58. The ecological disaster in Nauru resulted from _______.
A. soil pollution B. phosphate overmining
C. farming activity D. whale hunting
59. Which of the following was a cause of Nauru’s financial problem?
A. Its leaders misused the money B. It spent too much repairing the island
C. Its phosphate mining cost much money D. It lost millions of dollars in the civil war.
60. What can we learn about Nauru from the last paragraph?
A. The ecological damage is difficult to repair.
B. The leaders will take the experts’ words seriously.
C. The island was abandoned by the Nauruans
D. The phosphate mines were destroyed

One of the greatest contributions to the first Oxford English Dictionary was also one of its most unusual. In 1879, Oxford University in England asked Prof. James Murray to serve as editor
for what was to be the most ambitious dictionary in the history of the English language. It would include every English word possible and would give not only the definition but also the history of the word and quotations (引文)showing how it was used.
This was a huge task. So Murrary had to find volunteers from Britain, the United States, and the British colonies to search every newspaper, magazine, and book ever written in English. Hundreds of volunteers responded, including William Chester Minor. Dr. Minor was an American Surgeon who had served in the Civil War and was now living in England. He gave his address as “Broadmoor, Crowthorne, Berkshire,” 50 miles from Oxford.
Minor joined the army of volunteers sending words and quotations to Murray. Over the next years, he became one of the staff’s most valued contributors.
But he was also a mystery. In spite of many invitations, he would always decline to visit Oxford. So in 1897， Murray finally decided to travel to Crowthorne himself. When he arrived, he found Minor locked in a book-lined cell at the Broadmoor Asylum(精神病院) for the Criminally Insane.
Murray and Minor became friends, sharing their love of words. Minor continued contributing to the dictionary, sending in more than 10,000 submissions in 20 years. Murray continued to visit Minor regularly, sometimes taking walks with him around the asylum grounds.
In 1910, Minor left Broadmoor for an asylum in his native America. Murray was at the port to wave goodbye to his remarkable friend.
Minor died in 1920, seven years before the first edition of the Oxford English Dictionary was completed. The 12 volumes defined 414,825 words, and thousands of them were contributions from a very scholarly and devoted asylum patient.
61. According to the text, the first Oxford English Dictionary _________.
A. came out before minor died
B. was edited by an American volunteer
C. included the English words invented by Murray
D. was intended to be the most ambitious English dictionary

San Francisco has its cable cars. Seattle has its Space Needle. And, Longview has its squirrel bridge. The bridge, which has attracted international attention, is now a local landmark.
The Nutty Narrows Bridge was built in 1963 by a local builder, Amos Peters, to give squirrels a way to cross the busy road without getting flattened by passing cars.
The original bridge was built over Olympia Way on the west edge of the library grounds. Before the bridge was built, squirrels had to avoid traffic to and from the Park Plaza office building where office staff put out a nutty feast for the squirrels. Many times, Peters and others who worked in and near Park Plaza witnessed squirrels being run over.
One day Peters found a dead squirrel with a nut still in its mouth, and that day’s coffee break discussion turned into squirrel safety. The group of businessmen cooked up the squirrel bridge idea and formed a committee to ask the blessing of the City Council(市政会).The Council approved, and Councilwoman Bess LaRiviere named the bridge “Nutty Narrows.”
After architects designed the bridge, Amos Peters and Bill Hutch started construction. They built the 60-foot bridge from aluminum and lengths of fire hose(消防水带). It cost $1,000.
It didn’t take long before reports of squirrels using the bridge started. Squirrels were even seen guiding their young and teaching them the ropes. The story was picked up by the media, and Nutty Narrows became known in newspapers all over the world.
In 1983, after 20 years of use, Peters took down the worn-out bridge. Repairs were made and crosspieces were replaced. The faded sign was repainted and in July 1983, hundreds of animal lovers attended the completion ceremony of the new bridge.
Peters died in 1984, and a ten-foot wooden squirrel sculpture was placed near the bridge in memory of its builder and his devotion to the project.
67. The Nutty Narrows Bridge was built in order to ________.
A. offer squirrels a place to eat nuts
B. set up a local landmark
C. help improve traffic
D. protect squirrels
68. What happened over the coffee break discussion?

69. What does the underlined phrase “teaching them the ropes” probably means in the text?
A. Passing them a rope B. Directing them to store food for winter
C. Teaching them a lesson D. Showing them how to use the bridge.
70. Which of the following is true of the squirrel bridge?
A. It was replaced by a longer one. B. It was built from wood and metal
C. it was rebuilt after years of use D. It was designed by Bill Hutch.
71. What can we learn about Amos
Peters?
A. He is remembered for his love of animals.
B. He donated $1,000 to build the bridge
C. He was a member of the City Council
D. He was awarded a medal for building the bridge.
D
For those who are tired of doing the laundry, Samsung has found an answer: a washing machine that can tell you when your laundry is done via a smart phone app(application).
Strange though it may seem — “my wife already does that” was a common response among attendees viewing the device when it was introduced at the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) this week — Samsung is just one of many appliance makers racing to install (安装) a large number of internet-connected features in machines in an effort to make them “smart”.
Last year, it was a refrigerator that tweeted. This year, it’s Wi-Fi-enabled laundry machines and fridges that can tell you when your groceries are going bad.
The washers and dryers, available starting in the spring, connect to any smart phone through a downloadable application. The phone can then be used as a remote control, so the machines can be turned on and off while their owners is at work or on the bus.
Samsung says it’s not just something new — the app connection actually has some practical uses.
“If you started to dry clothes in the morning and forgot to take them out, you can go to your phone and restart your dryer for the time when come home, so your clothes are refreshed and ready to go,” said spokesperson Amy Schmidt.
The company also says that with electricity rate(电价)varying depending on the time of day, more control over when the machines are used can help save money.
Perhaps, but what they will probably really accomplish is what all good technologies do —enable laziness. Rather than getting up to check on whether the laundry is done, users will instead monitor it on their phones while watching TV.
72. What can be inferred from the common response of the attendees at the CES?
A. The machine will be a big success.
B. their wives like doing the laundry.
C. The machine is unrelated to their life.
D. This kind of technology is familiar to them.
73. What can we learn about the new laundry machines?
A. They can tell you when your clothes need washing
B. They can be controlled with a smart phone
C. They are difficult to operate
D. They are sold at a low price
74. We can conclude form Samsung’s statements that ___________.
A. the app connection makes life easier
B. it is better to dry clothes in the morning
C. smart phone can shorten the drying time
D. we should refresh clothes back at home
75. What is the main idea of the last paragraph?
A. The laundry should be frequently checked
B. Lazy people like using such
machines
C. Good technologies also cause problems
D. Television may help do the laundry.

One possible version:
As a high school student, I consider English a very important subject. In order to learn it well, apart from English class, I took an active part in English corner and other after-class English activities, which benefit me a lot.
In the English corner, I meet many friends, who share the same interest with me. Besides, sometimes, some foreigners are glad to join us. By talking with them, my oral English improved a lot. I also find it useful to keep English diaries. I keep on doing it these years and it is helpful to my English. As a saying goes, practice makes perfect. Only by practice will we make more progress. Finally, some good English study websites contribute a lot to my improvement. Through these websites, I can read some classic English passages, poems and stories. What’s more, I can learn some learning skills and methodologies, which play an important part in my study process.
All in all, every road leads to Roma, but I believe hard work pays off.

【命题透视】“介词+which”引导的非限制性定语从句。考查基础语法知识并运用其分析解答问题的能力。
【试题解析】句中的先行词是two novels，而且后面是一个非限制性定语从句，因此用both of which引导。That不能引导非限制性定语从句，也不能跟在介词后面；如果选them，则后面需要有并列连词and或者是独立主格结构，即both of them made into...。
24.【答案】D

【命题透视】状语从句，as引导时间状语从句。考查基础语法知识并运用其分析解答问题的能力。

【试题解析】后一句中的wouldn’t have been so successful是虚拟语气，句意为：如果我们没有做好充分的准备，会议就不会如此的成功。虚拟语气中与过去事实相反的情况中，主句用would have done，if引导的从句中的谓语动词用过去完成时。
【考场雷区】因为此句是与过去事实相反的虚拟条件句，因此从句中应该用过去完成时，而不是一般过去时。
31.【答案】C
【命题透视】特殊句式；倒装。考查基础语法知识并运用其分析解答问题的能力。
【试题解析】根据后面一句中的I can’t stand all this rain可知，此处与上一句中的I’m sick and tired of the weather表达同样的感受，因此应该用So am I，表示“我也是”。选项A和D都与后面一句话矛盾；B的意思是“很难说”，不符合句意。

【试题解析】根据文章倒数第二段中的In 1983, after 20 years of use, Peters took down the worn-out bridge. Repairs were made and crosspieces were replaced.可知，绳索用了20年后，Peters进行了修缮，并替换上了新的绳索。文中没有涉及是否替换的绳索更长；第五段中提到绳索是铝制的，而且是一个architect设计的，只是说Peters和Hutch开始建设，因此可以排除其他选项。

One possible version:
As a high school student, I consider English a very important subject. In order to learn it well, apart from English class, I took an active part in English corner and other after-class English activities, which benefit me a lot.
In the English corner, I meet many friends, who share the same interest with me. Besides, sometimes, some foreigners are glad to join us. By talking with them, my oral English improved a lot. I also find it useful to keep English diaries. I keep on doing it these years and it is helpful to my English. As a saying goes, practice makes perfect. Only by practice will we make more progress. Finally, some good English study websites contribute a lot to my improvement. Through these websites, I can read some classic English passages, poems and stories. What’s more, I can learn some learning skills and methodologies, which play an important part in my study process.
All in all, every road leads to Roma, but I believe hard work pays off.

第三部分 阅读理解（共20小题;每小题2分，满分40分）
阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
A
Christopher Thomas, 27, was a writer by night and a teacher by day when he noticed he was always tired and was losing weight fast. Diagnosed with diabetes(糖尿病), Thomas would need to inject himself with insulin(胰岛素) three times a day for the rest of his life or risk nerve damage, blindness, and even death. And if that weren't bad enough, he had no health insurance.
After a month of feeling upset, Thomas decided he'd better find a way to fight back. He left Canton, Michigan for New York, got a job waiting tables, nicknamed himself the Diabetic Rockstar , and created diabeticrockstar.com, a free online community for diabetics and their loved ones—a place where over 1,100 people share personal stories, information, and resources.
Jason Swencki’s son, Kody, was diagnosed with type diabetes at six. Father and son visit the online children's forums(论坛) together most evenings. "Kody gets so excited, writing to kids from all over," says Swencki, one of the site's volunteers. "They know what he's going through, so he doesn't feel alone."
Kody is anything but alone: Diabetes is now the seventh leading cause of death in the United States, with 24 million diagnosed cases. And more people are being diagnosed at younger ages.
These days, Thomas's main focus is his charity（慈善机构）, Fight It, which provides medicines and supplies to people—225 to date—who can't afford a diabetic's huge expenses. Fight-it.org has raised about $23,000—in products and in cash. In May, Thomas will hold the first annual Diabetic Rockstar Festival in the Caribbean.
Even with a staff of 22 volunteers, Thomas often devotes up to 50 hours a week to his cause, while still doing his full-time job waiting tables. "Of the diabetes charities out there, most are putting money into finding a cure," says Bentley Gubar, one of Rockstar's original members. "But Christopher is the only person I know saying people need help now."
56. Which of the following is true of Christopher Thomas?
A. He needs to go to the doctor every day.
B. He studies the leading cause of diabetes
C. He has a positive attitude to this disease.
D. He encourages diabetics by writing articles.
57. Diabeitcrockstar.com was created for _________.
A. diabetics to communicate B. volunteers to find jobs
C. children to amuse themselves D. rock stars to share resources.
58. According to the text, Kody ______.
A. feel lonely because of his illness
B. benefits from diabeticrockstar.com
C. helps create the online kid’s forums
D. writes children’s stories online
59. What can we learn about Fight It?
A. It helps the diabetics in financial difficulties.
B. It organizes parties for volunteer once a year.
C. It offers less expensive medicine to diabetics.
D. It owns a well-known medical website.
60. The last paragraph suggests that Thomas ______.
A. works full-time in a diabetes charity B. employs 22 people for his website
C. helps diabetics in his own way D. ties to find a cure for diabetes
B
Ask someone what they have done to help the environment recently and they will almost certainly mention recycling. Recycling in the home is very important of course. However, being forced to recycle often means we already have more material than we need. We are dealing with the results of that over-consumption in the greenest way possible, but it would be far better if we did not need to bring so much material home in the first place.
The total amount of packaging increased by 12% between 1999 and 2005. It now makes up a third of a typical household’s waste in the UK. In many supermarkets nowadays food items are packaged twice with plastic and cardboard.
Too much packaging is doing serious damage to the environment. The UK, for example, is running out of it for carrying this unnecessary waste. If such packaging is burnt, it gives off greenhouse gases which go on to cause the greenhouse effect. Recycling helps, but the process itself uses energy. The solution is not to produce such items in the first place. Food waste is a serious problem, too. Too many supermarkets encourage customers to buy more than they need. However, a few of them are coming round to the idea that this cannot continue, encouraging customers to reuse their plastic bags, for example.
But this is not just about supermarkets. It is about all of us. We have learned to associate packaging with quality. We have learned to think that something unpackaged is of poor quality. This is especially true of food. But is also applies to a wide range of consumer products, which often have far more packaging than necessary.
There are signs of hope. As more of us recycle, we are beginning to realise just how much unnecessary material are collecting. We need to face the wastefulness of our consumer culture, but we have a mountain to climb.
61. What does the underlined phrase “over-consumption” refer to?
A. Using too much packaging.
B. Recycling too many wastes.
C. Making more products than necessary.
D. Having more material than is needed.
62. The author uses figures in Paragraph 2 to show _______.
A. the tendency of cutting household waste
B. the increase of packaging recycling
C. the rapid growth of super markets
D. the fact of packaging overuse
63. According to the text, recycling ______.
A. helps control the greenhouse effect
B. means burning packaging for energy
C. is the solution to gas shortage
D. leads to a waste of land
64. What can be inferred from Paragraph 4?
A. Unpackaged products are of bad quality.
B. Supermarkets care more about packaging.
C. It is improper to judge quality by packaging.
D. Other products are better packaged than food.
65. What can we learn from the last paragraph?
A. Fighting wastefulness is difficult.
B. Needless material is mostly recycled.
C. People like collecting recyclable waste.
D. The author is proud of their consumer culture.
C
Rae Armantrout, who has been a poetry professor at the University of California San Diego(UCSD) for two decades, has won the 2010 Pulitzer Prize in the poetry category for her most recent book, “Versed”.
“I’m delighted and amazed at how much media recognition that the Pulitzer brings, as compared to even the National Book Critics Award, which I was also surprised and delighted to win,” said Armantrout.
“For a long time, my writing has been just below the media radar, and to have this kind of attention, suddenly, with my 10th book, is really surprising.”
Armantrout, a native Californian, received her bachelor’s degree at UC Berkeley, where she studied with noted poet Denise Levertov, and her master’s in
creative writing from San Francisco State University. She is a founding member of Language Poets, a group in American poetry that analyzes the way language is used and raises questions to make the reader think.
In March, she won the National Book Critics Circle Award for “Versed.”
“This book has gotten more attention,” Armantrout said, “but I don’t feel as if it’s better.”
The first half of “Versed” focuses on the dark forces taking hold of the United States as it fought the war against Iraq. The second half looks at the dark forces casting a shadow over her own life after Armantrout was diagnosed with cancer in 2006.
Armantrout was shocked to learn she had won the Pulitzer but many of her colleagues were not. “Rae Armantrout is a unique voice in American poetry,” said Seth Lerer, head of Arts and Humanities at UCSD.
“Versed”, published by the Wesleyan University Press, did appear in a larger printing than her earlier works, which is about 2,700 copies. The new edition is scheduled to appear in May.
66. According to Rae Armantrout, ____________.
A. her 10th book is much better
B. her winning the Pulitzer is unexpected
C. the media is surprised at her works
D. she likes being recognized by her readers
67. Which of the following is true of Rae Armantrout?
A. She published a poetry textbook.
B. She used to teach Denise Levertov.
C. She started a poets’ group with others.
D. She taught creative writing at UC Berkeley.
68. What can we learn about “Versed”?
A. It consists of three parts.
B. It is mainly about the American army.
C. It is a book published two decades ago.
D. It partly concerns the poet’s own life.
69. Rae Armantrout’s colleagues think that she ____________.
A. should write more B. has a sweet voice
C. deserves the prize D. is a strange professor
70. What can we learn from the text?
A. About 2,700 copies of “Versed” will be printed.
B. Cancer made Armantrout stop writing.
C. Armantrout got her degrees at UCSD.
D. “Versed” has been awarded twice.
D
Batteries can power anything from small sensors to large systems. While scientists are finding ways to make them smaller but even more powerful, problems can arise when these batteries are much larger and heavier than the devices
themselves. University of Missouri(MU) researchers are developing a nuclear energy source that is smaller, lighter and more efficient.
“To provide enough power, we need certain methods with high energy density(密度)”，said Jae Kwon, assistant professor of electrical and computer engineering at MU. “The radioisotope(放射性同位素) battery can provide power density that is much higher than chemical batteries.”
Kwon and his research team have been working on building a small nuclear battery, presently the size and thickness of a penny, intended to power various micro / nanoelectromechanical systems (M/NEMS). Although nuclear batteries can cause concerns, Kwon said they are safe.
“People hear the word ‘nuclear’ and think of something very dangerous,” he said, “However, nuclear power sources have already been safely powering a variety of devices, such as pace-makers, space satellites and underwater systems.”
His new idea is not only in the battery’s size, but also in its semiconductor(半导体). Kwon’s battery uses a liquid semiconductor rather than a solid semiconductor.
“The key part of using a radioactive battery is that when you harvest the energy, part of the radiation energy can damage the lattice structure(晶体结构) of the solid semiconductor,” Kwon said, “By using a liquid semiconductor, we believe we can minimize that problem.”
Together with J. David Robertson, chemistry professor and associate director of the MU Research Reactor, Kwon is working to build and test the battery. In the future, they hope to increase the battery’s power, shrink its size and try with various other materials. Kwon said that battery could be thinner than the thickness of human hair.
71. Which of the following is true of Jae Kwon?
A. He teaches chemistry at MU.
B. He developed a chemical battery.
C. He is working on a nuclear energy source.
D. He made a breakthrough in computer engineering.
72. Jae Kwon gave examples in Paragraph 4_________.
A. to show chemical batteries are widely applied.
B. to introduce nuclear batteries can be safely used.
C. to describe a nuclear-powered system.
D. to introduce various energy sources.
73. Liquid semiconductor is used to _________.
A. get rid of the radioactive waste
B. test the power of nuclear batteries.
C. decrease the size of nuclear batteries
D. reduce the damage to lattice structure.
74. According to Jae Kwon, his nuclear battery _______.
A. uses a solid semiconductor
B. will soon replace the present ones.
C. could be extremely thin
D. has passed the final test.
75. The text is most probably a ________.
A. science news report B. book review
C. newspaper ad D. science fiction story

第四部分 书面表达
第一节 阅读表达（共5小题；每小题3分，满分15分）
阅读下面短文并回答问题，然后将答案写到答题卡相应的位置上（请注意问题后的字数要求）。
[1]One out of many important things for the whole family to do is to have dinner together. Researchers began reporting the benefits of family dinner about a decade ago, focusing mainly on how it affects children. Studies show that those families who eat dinner at least 3 or 4 times a week together, benefit in many ways.
[2]Eating together helps families achieve open communication and build stronger and healthier relationships. Children have better grades at school and are better adjusted as teens and adults, and the entire family enjoys healthier nutrition. For many families, eating dinner together proves to be a good and effective way to reduce the risk of youth rates of addiction, and helps to raise healthier children. It is also a great time to share the events of the day, discuss news and ideas and just be together and enjoy each other's company.
[3]During dinner time parents have better opportunity to show that they are the prior to their children. Sitting at the same table and sharing meals is where and when parents can find out more about their children's school performance, daily activities and attitudes toward life. When parents have all this information they can better direct their kids toward positive things in life. They also have better chance to reduce the possibility that children will get involved with alcohol, tobacco, and illegal drugs.
[4]However, family researchers say that the benefits of family dinner by no means can be considered as automatic. Parents can sit down to dinner with their kids every day and achieve nothing. ____________________ if there is too much arguing going on, if there is no meaningful conversation or, what is even worse, if there is just plain silence during gathering.
76. What is the main idea of the text? (no more than 8 words)
________________________________________________________________
77. Which sentence in the text is closest in meaning to the following one?
By having dinner together family members can have free exchange of information and develop closer ties among them.

________________________________________________________________79. What information can parents probably get about their children at family dinner? (no more than 12 words)

Arthur Miller（1915-2005）is universally recognized as one of the greatest dramatists of the 20th century．Miller`s father had moved to the USA from Austria Hungary, drawn like so many other by the “Great American Dream” However, he experienced severe financial hardship when his family business was ruined in the Great Depression of the early l930s．
Miller's most famous play, Death of a Salesman, is a powerful attack on the American system, with its aggressive way of doing business and its insistence on money and social status as indicators of worth． In Willy Loman, the hero of the play, we see a man who has got into trouble with this system. Willy is “burnt out” and in the cruel world of business there is no room for sentiment : if he can't do the work, then he is no good to his employer, the Wagner Company, and
he must go．Willy is painfully aware of this, and at a loss as to what to do with his lack of success． He refuses to face the fact that he has failed and kills himself in the end．
When it was first staged in 1949 ,the play was greeted with enthusiastic reviews, and it won the Tony Award for Best Play, the New York Drama Critics’ Circle Award, and the Pulitzer Prize for Drama．It was the first play to win all three of these major awards．

Tim Richter and his wife, Linda, had taught for over 30 years near Buffalo, New York--he in
computers, she in special education． "Teaching means everything to us," Tim would say． In April1998, he learned he would need a heart operation． It was the kind of news that leads to some serious thinking about life's purpose．
Not long after the surgery, Tim saw a brochure describing Imagination Library, a program started by Dolly Parton' s foundation （基金会）that mailed a book every month to children from birth to age five in the singer's home town of Sevier, Tennessee．“I thought, maybe Linda and I could do something like this when we retire," Tim recalls．He placed the brochure on his desk, "as a reminder．”
Five years later, now retired and with that brochure still on the desk, Tim clicked on imagination library．com． The program had been opened up to partners who could take advantage of book and postage discounts．
The quality of the books was of great concern to the Richters．Rather than sign up online, they went to Dollywood for a look-see． “We didn’t want to give the children rubbish,” says Linda．The books-reviewed each year by teachers, literacy specialists and Dollywood board members-included classics such as Ezra Jack Keats’s The Snowy Day and newer books like Anna Dewdney’s Llama Llama series．
Satisfied, the couple set up the Richter Family Foundation and got to work． Since 2004, they have shipped more than 12,200 books to preschoolers in their in their area．Megan Williams, a mother of four, is more than appreciative: “This program introduces us to books I’ve never heard of ．”
The Richters spend about ＄400 a month sending books to 200 children．“Some people sit there and wait to die,” says Tim．“Others get as busy as they can in the time they have left．”
61．What led Tim to think seriously about the meaning of life?
A．His health problem B．His love for teaching
C．The influence of his wife D．The news from the Web．
62．What did Tim want to do after learning about Imagination Library?

C．a singer born in Tennessee D．a computer programmer
64．Why did the Richters go to Dollywood?
A．To avoid signing up online． B．To meet Dollywood board members．
C．To make sure the books were the newest． D．To see if the books were of good quality．
65．What can we learn from Tim’s words in the last paragraph?
A．He needs more money to help the children． B．He wonders why some people are so busy．
C．He tries to save those waiting to die． D．He considers his efforts worthwhile．
C
Diana Jacobs thought her family had a workable plan to pay for college for her 21-year-old twin sons: a combination of savings, income, scholarships, and a modest amount of borrowing． Then her husband lost his job, and the plan fell apart．
“I have two kids in college, and I want to say ‘come home,’ but at the same time I want to provide them with a good education,” says Jacobs．
The Jacobs family did work out a solution: They asked and received more aid form the schools, and each son increased his borrowing to the maximum amount through the federal loan （贷款） program． They will each graduate with $20,000 of debt, but at least they will be able to finish school．
With unemployment rising, financial aid administrators expect to hear from more families like the Jacobses．More students are applying for aid, and more families expect to need student loans．College administrators are concerned that they will not have enough aid money to go around．
At the same time, tuition（学费）continues to rise． A report from the National Center for Public Policy and Higher Education found that college tuition and fees increased 439% from 1982 to 2007, while average family income rose just 147%． Student borrowing has more than doubled in the last decade,
“If we go on this way for another 25years, we won’t have an affordable system of higher education,” says Patrick M． Callan, president of the center． “The middle class families have been financing it through debt．They will send kids to college whatever it takes, even if that means a huge amount of debt．”
Financial aid administrators have been having a hard time as many companies decide that student loans are not profitable enough and have stopped making them． The good news, however, is that federal loans account for about three quarters of student borrowing, and the government says that money will flow uninterrupted．
66．According to Paragraph 1 why did the plan of Jacobs family fail?
A．The twins wasted too much money． B．The father was out of work．
C．Their saving ran out． D．The family fell apart．
67．How did the Jacobses manage to solve their problem?
A．They asked their kids to come home．
B．They borrowed $20,000 from the school．
C．They encouraged their twin sons to do part-time jobs．
D．They got help from the school and the federal government．
68．Financial aid administrators believe that _______．
A．more families will face the same problem as the Jacobses
B．the government will receive more letters of complaint
C．college tuition fees will double soon
D．America’s unemployment will fall
69．What can we learn about the middle class families from the text?
A．They blamed the government for the tuition increase．
B．Their income remained steady in the last decade．
C．They will try their best to send kids to college．
D．Their debts will be paid off within 25 years．
70．According to the last paragraph, the government will ．
A．provide most students will scholarships
B．dismiss some financial aid administrators
C．stop the companies from making student loans
D．go on providing financial support for college students
D
Since the 1970s, scientists have been searching for ways to link the brain with computers．Brain-computer interface（BCI） technology could help people with disabilities send commands to machines．
Recently, two researchers, Jose Millan and Michele Tavella from the Federal Polytechnic School in Lausanne, Switzerland, demonstrated（展示）a small robotic wheelchair directed by a person’s thoughts．
In the laboratory, Tavella operated the wheelchair just by thinking about moving his left or right band．He could even talk as he watched the vehicle and guided it with his thoughts．
“Our brain has billions of nerve cells．These send signals through the spinal cord（脊髓）to the muscles to give us the ability to move．But spinal cord injuries or other conditions can prevent these weak electrical signals from reaching the muscles,” Tavella says．“Our system allows disabled people to communicate with external world and also to control devices．”
The researchers designed a special cap for the user．This head cover picks up the signals from
the scalp（头皮）and sends them to a computer．The computer interprets the signals and commands the motorized wheelchair． The wheelchair also has two cameras that identify objects in its path．They help the computer react to commands from the brain．
Prof．Millan, the team leader, says scientists keep improving the computer software that interprets brain signals and turns them into simple commands．“The practical possibilities that BCI technology offers to disabled people can be grouped in two categories: communication, and controlling devices．One example is this wheelchair．”
He says his team has set two goals．One is testing with real patients, so as to prove that this is a technology they can benefit from．And the other is to guarantee that they can use the technology over long periods of time．
71．BCI is a technology that can .
A．help to update computer systems
B．link the human brain with computers
C．help the disabled to recover
D．control a person's thoughts
72．How did Tavella operate the wheelchair in the laboratory?
A．By controlling his muscles． B．By talking to the machine．
C．By moving his hand． D．By using his mind．
73．Which of the following shows the path of the signals described in Paragraph 5?
A．scalp → computer → cap → wheelchair
B．computer → cap → scalp → wheelchair
C．scalp → cap → computer → wheelchair
D．cap → computer → scalp → wheelchair
74．The team will test with real patients to .
A．make profits from them
B．prove the technology useful to them
C．make them live longer
D．learn about their physical condition
75．Which of the following would be the best title for the text?
A．Switzerland, the BCI Research Center
B．New Findings About How the Human Brain Works
C．BCI Could Mean More Freedom for the Disabled
D．Robotic Vehicles Could Help to Cure Brain Injuries

阅读下面短文并回答问题，然后将答案写到答题卡相应的位置上（请注意问题后的词数要求）。
[1]Do you spend over an hour each day texting messages to your friends? Do you frequently ignore work, study, and other activities to check your phone for messages? Are you anxious and restless if you are separated from your mobile phone? Do you hardly ever use your phone to talk any more, and do your thumbs hurt from texting too much?
[2] If , then it is very possible that you are a textaholic．A textaholic can be defined as someone who is addicted to sending and receiving messages．The main symptoms are a strong desire to text messages, which takes precedence （优先）over everything else, and bad moods, low spirits and a lack of self-confidence if messages fail to come in． The root of the problem, as with many addictions, is the desire to escape from emotional difficulties such as stress, anxiety and relationship problems． Experts warn that text addiction is likely to become the most common form of addiction in the future, especially among the young．
[3]So what can you do if you think you may be a textaholic? The key is to get your life back in balance．Make sure you resist the urge to answer every message you receive, and consider leaving your mobile phone behind occasionally when you go out．Most importantly, make a point of spending quality time with friends and family, and make time to re-learn the art of face-to-face conversation instead of conducting your relationships by means of text messages．Not only will you save time and money, but you may also rediscover the pleasure of true communication．
76．How does the author introduce the topic of the text? （no more than 5 words）

第三部分：阅读理解（共20小题；每小题2分，满分 40分）
阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
A
The Pacific island nation of Nauru used to be a beautiful place. Now it is an ecological disaster area. Nauru’s heartbreaking story could have one good consequence — other countries might learn from its mistakes.
For thousands of years, Polynesian people lived the remote island of Nauru, far from western civilization. The first European to arrive was John Fearn in 1798. He was the British captain of the Hunter, a whaling ship. He called the island Pleasant Island.
However, because it was very remote, Nauru had little communication with Europeans at first. The whaling ships and other traders began to visit, bringing guns and alcohol. These elements destroyed the social balance of the twelve family groups on the island. A ten-year civil war started, which reduced the population from 1,400 to 900.
Nauru’s real troubles began in 1899 when a British mining company discovered phosphate (磷酸盐)on the island. In fact, it found that the island of Nauru was nearly all phosphate, which a very important fertilizer for farming. The company began mining the phosphate.
A phosphate mine is not a hole in the ground; it is a strip mine. When a company strip-mines, it removes the top layer of soil. Then it takes away the material it wants. Strip mining totally destroys the land. Gradually, the lovely island of Nauru started to look like the moon.
In 1968, Nauru became one of the richest countries in the world. Every year the government received millions and millions of dollars for its phosphate.
Unfortunately, the leaders invested the money unwisely and lost millions of dollars. In addition, they used millions more dollars for personal expenses. Soon people realized that they had a terrible problem — their phosphate was running out. Ninety percent of their island was destroyed and they had nothing. By 2000, Nauru was financially ruined. Experts say that it would take approximately $433,600,000 and more than 20 years to repair the island. This will probably never happen.
56. What might be the author’s purpose in writing the text?
A. To seek help for Nauru’s problems.
B. To give a warning to other countries
C. To show the importance of money
D. To tell a heartbreaking story of a war.
57. What was Nauru like before the Europeans came?
A. Rich and powerful B. Modern and open
C. Peaceful and attractive D. Greedy and aggressive
58. The ecological disaster in Nauru resulted from _______.
A. soil pollution B. phosphate over mining
C. farming activity D. whale hunting
59. Which of the following was a cause of Nauru’s financial problem?
A. Its leaders misused the money B. It spent too much repairing the island
C. Its phosphate mining cost much money
D. It lost millions of dollars in the civil war.
60. What can we learn about Nauru from the last paragraph?
A. The ecological damage is difficult to repair.
B. The leaders will take the experts’ words seriously.
C. The island was abandoned by the Nauruans
D. The phosphate mines were destroyed
B
One of the greatest contributions to the first Oxford English Dictionary was also one of its most unusual. In 1879, Oxford University in England asked Prof. James Murray to serve as editor for what was to be the most ambitious dictionary in the history of the English language. It would include every English word possible and would give not only the definition but also the history of the word and quotations (引文)showing how it was used.
This was a huge task. So Murrary had to find volunteers from Britain, the United States, and the British colonies to search every newspaper, magazine, and book ever written in English. Hundreds of volunteers responded, including William Chester Minor. Dr. Minor was an American Surgeon who had served in the Civil War and was now living in England. He gave his address as “Broadmoor, Crowthorne, Berkshire,”” 50 miles from Oxford.
Minor joined the army of volunteers sending words and quotations to Murray. Over the next years, he became one of the staff’s most valued contributors.
But he was also a mystery. In spite of many invitations, he would always decline to visit Oxford. So in 1897， Murray finally decided to travel to Crowthorne himself. When he arrived, he found Minor locked in a book-lined cell at the Broadmoor Asylum for the Criminally insane.
Murray and Minor became friends, sharing their love of words. Minor continued contributing to the dictionary, sending in more than 10,000 submissions in 20 years. Murray continued to visit Minor regularly, sometimes taking walks with him around the asylum grounds.
In 1910, Minor left Broadmoor for an asylum in his native America. Murray was at the port to wave goodbye to his remarkable friend.
Minor died in 1920, seven years before the first edition of the Oxford English Dictionary was completed. The 12 volumes defined 414,825 words, and thousands of them were contributions from a very scholarly and devoted asylum patient.
61. According to the text, the first Oxford English Dictionary _________.
A. came out before minor died
B. was edited by an American volunteer
C. included the English words invented by Murray
D. was intended to be the most ambitious English dictionary
62. How did Dr. Minor contributed to the dictionary?
A. He helped Murray to find hundreds of volunteers.
B. He sent newspapers, magazines and books to Murray.

C. He was busy writing a book D. He disliked traveling
64. Prof. Murray and Dr. Minor became friends mainly because __________.

San Francisco has its cable cars. Seattle has its Space Needle. And, Longview has its squirrel bridge. The bridge, which has attracted international attention, is now a local landmark.
The Nutty Narrows Bridge was built in 1963 by a local builder, Amos Peters, to give squirrels a way to cross the busy road without getting flattened by passing cars.
The original bridge was built over Olympia Way on the west edge of the library grounds. Before the bridge was built, squirrels had to avoid traffic to and from the Park Plaza office building where office staff put out a nutty feast for the squirrels. Many times, Peters and others who worked in and near Park Plaza witnessed squirrels being run over.
One day Peters found a dead squirrel with a nut still in its mouth, and that day’s coffee break discussion turned into squirrel safety. The group of businessmen cooked up the squirrel bridge idea and formed a committee to ask the blessing of the City Council(市政会).The Council approved, and Councilwoman Bess LaRiviere named the bridge “Nutty Narrows.”
After architects designed the bridge, Amos Peters and Bill Hutch started Construction, They built the 60-foot bridge from aluminum and lengths of fire hose(消防水带). It cost 1,000.
It didn’t take long before reports of squirrels using the bridge started. Squirrels were even seen guiding their young and teaching them the ropes. The story was picked up by the media, and Nutty Narrows became know in newspapers all over the world.
In 1983, after 20 years of use, Peters took down the worn-out bridge. Repairs were made and crosspieces were replaced. The faded sign was repainted and in July 1983, hundreds of animal lovers attended the completion ceremony of the new bridge.
Peters died in 1984, and a ten-foot wooden squirrel sculpture was placed near the bridge in memory of its builder and his devotion to the project.
67. The Nutty Narrows Bridge was built in order to ________.
A. offer squirrels a place to eat nuts
B. set up a local landmark
C. help improve traffic
D. protect squirrels
68. What happened over the coffee break discussion?
A. The committee got the Council’s blessing.

A. passing them a rope B. Directing them to store food for winter
C. Teaching them a lesson D. Showing them how to use the bridge.
70. Which of the following is true of the squirrel
bridge?
A. It was replaced by a longer one. B. It was built from wood and metal

D
For those who are tired doing the laundry, Samsung has found an answer: a washing machine that can tell you when your laundry is done via a smartphone app(application).
Strange though it may seem — “my wife already does that” was a common response among attendees viewing the device when it was introduced at the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) this week — Samsung is just one of many appliance makers racing to install (安装) a large number of internet-connected features in machines in an effort to make them “smart”.
Last year, it was a refrigerator that tweeted. This year, it’s Wi-Fi-enabled laundry machines and fridges that can tell you when your groceries are going bad.
The washers and dryers, available starting in the spring, connect to any smartphone through a downloadable application. The phone can then be used as a remote control, so the machines can be turned on and off while their owners is at work or on the bus.
Samsung says it’s not just something new — the app connection actually has some practical uses.
“If you started to dry clothes in the morning and forgot to take them out, you can go to your phone and restart your dryer for the time when come home, so your clothes are refreshed and ready to go,” said spokesperson Amy Schmidt.
The company also says that with electricity rate(电价)varying depending on the time of day, more control over when the machines are used can help save money.
Perhaps, but what they will probably really accomplish is what all good technologies do —enable laziness. Rather than getting up to check on whether the laundry is done, users will instead monitor it on their phones while watching TV.
72. What can be inferred from the common response of the attendees at the CES?
A. The machine will be a big success.
B. their wives like doing the laundry.
C. The machine is unrelated to their life.
D. This kind of technology is familiar to them.
73. What can we learn about the new laundry machines?
A. They can tell you when your clothes need washing
B. They can be controlled with a smartphone
C. They are difficult to operate
D. They are sold at a low price
74. We can conclude form Samsung’s statements that ___________.
A. the app connection makes life easier
B. it is better to dry clothes in the morning
C. smartphone can shorten the drying time
D. we should refresh clothes back at home
75. What is the main idea of the last paragraph?
A. The laundry should be frequently checked
B. Lazy people like using such machines
C. Good technologies also cause problems
D. Television may help do the laundry.

But it was crazy in a lot of ways. I got very stressed. I mean, I was only sixteen — I didn’t even have a car! If you were sixteen and you had your own company, you’d be stressed, too！“
