Of course, this didn’t include her when she told me that if I didn’t eat all my vegetables Father Christmas would find out and wouldn’t give me any presents.‎ But when it comes to medicine, I had assumed it was important to always be honest with my patients. After all, the doctor patient-relationship is based on trust, and therefore honesty is essential. Or so I thought.‎ I had just started working in geriatrics（老年病科）. Mr. McMahon was brought in when his belly was found very swollen. I took a medical history from his daughter who’d accompanied him in the ambulance. She’d been his main carer for years. I stood looking at him as she gave a detailed history. “Has he lost any weight recently ? ” I asked, “Well, it’s funny you should mention that, but yes,” she said slowly. There was silence for a few moments. “Why? What are you worried about? ” she asked. I hesitated. She was obviously very involved in his care and it was only fair that I told her the truth. “Well, we need to prove it’s not cancer,” I said and talked briefly about some of the tests I was going to order.‎ Half an hour later, a nurse called me: “Mr. McMahon’s daughter broke down — she said you told her he had cancer.” My heart sank. By the time I arrived at the ward, my consultant was already there, explaining that we still had to run lots of tests and that it was by no means confirmed that he had cancer. I stood silently at the end of the bed. My consultant was obviously angry with me and as we left Mr. McMahon, she turned to me. “Why on earth did you do that? ” she asked in disbelief. I looked at her and bit my lip. “She asked me what I was worried about and I told her.” I said, hanging my head. “And give her more to worry about?” replied my consultant. “You don’t say the word ‘cancer’ until it’s confirmed. Even if you suspect it, think very carefully before you tell people.”‎ As it turned out, it wasn’t cancer. But I did learn that when someone is stressed and worried about their loved one they’re sometimes selective in what they hear — and as a doctor it’s important to be mindful of this. In being truthful, I’d made the situation worse.‎ ‎ 51. The purpose of the first two paragraphs is to show that the author ________.‎ ‎ A. misunderstood the doctor-patient relationship ‎ B. was anxious to receive Christmas gifts ‎ C. regarded honesty as the best policy ‎ D. had an unhealthy eating habit ‎ 52.

What lesson has the author learnt from his experience?‎ ‎ A. Learning from parents is necessary.‎ ‎ B. Jumping to a conclusion is dangerous.‎ ‎ C. Telling the truth may not always be the best solution.‎ ‎ D. Selecting pleasant words may not be the perfect policy.‎ B Howling is a behavior commonly observed among a wolf pack. As pack animals, wolves work together to hunt and rely on howling as an important means of communication among each other. There are different explanations of a wolf’s howl and it appears that there may be more to discover.‎ One theory is that wolves howl to bond better together. It’s almost as if howling together helps the pack stay together. Perhaps something similar to people feeling a sense of involvement with each other when singing a song together. But this theory may be wrong, explains Fred H. Harington, a professor who studies wolf behavior.‎ Indeed, there have been times when wolves have been seen one moment howling in a chorus, and the next, quarreling among each other. It appears that usually the lowest-ranking members of the pack may actually be “ punished ” for joining in the chorus at times. So is howling a way to strengthen a social bond or just a way to reconfirm status among its members ? — Why do wolves howl for sure ?‎ What is clear, however, is that howling is often used among packmates to locate each other. Hunting grounds are distant and it happens that wolves may separate from one another at times. When this happens, howling appears to be an excellent means of gathering.‎ Howling, interestingly, is a contagious behavior. When one wolf starts to howl, very likely others will follow. This is often seen to occur in the morning, as if wolves were doing some sort of “ roll call ” where wolves all howl together to report their presence. ‎ ‎ 55. What the possible similarity between wolves’ howling together and human’s singing in chorus?‎ ‎ A. The act of calling each other.‎ ‎ B. the sense of accomplishment.‎ ‎ C. The act of hunting for something.‎ ‎ D. The sense of belonging to a group.‎ ‎ 56. Why does Harrington think the “ social bond ” theory may be wrong?‎ ‎ A. Wolves separate from each other after howling.‎ ‎ B. Wolves tend to protect their hunting grounds.‎ ‎ C. Wolves sometimes have quarrels after howling together.‎ ‎ D. Wolves of low rank are encouraged to join in the chorus.‎ ‎ 57. Researchers are sure that wolves often howl to ________ .‎ ‎ A. show their ranks ‎ B. find their companions ‎ C. report the missing ones ‎ D. express their loneliness ‎ 58. “ Howling… is a contagious behavior ” ( in the last paragraph ) means ________ .‎ ‎ A. howling is a signal for hunting ‎ B. howling is a way of communication ‎ C. howling often occurs in the morning ‎ D. howling spreads from one to another C In today’s throw-away society, dealing with the city’s growing mountain of waste is an increasing challenge for the city council（市议会）.‎ Recently, Edinburgh is faced with the problem of disposing of（处理）about 250,000 million tons of waste a year. Despite different ways to dispose of much of it in a green manner — largely through encouraging recycling — its aging facilities such as the Powderhall landfill do not have the ability to deal with it.‎ The European Union (EU) has issued a new policy, regulating how such mountains of waste are to be disposed of. The five councils ( Edinburgh, East Lothian, West Lothian, Midlothian and Borders ) face fines around ￡18 million a year from 2013 if they don’t increase recycling levels and rely less on landfill. With this in mind, the councils got together with the idea of building a large incinerator plant（垃圾焚烧厂）to burn half of the waste produced in their districts. But this plan fell apart after the change of target levels by a new UK government waste policy which required that no more than 25% of the city’s waste should be disposed of in this way by 2025.‎ After the plan was abandoned, a private company which already transported millions of tons of the city’s waste by train to a landfill site near Dunbar, offered an alternative solution when it suggested opening a huge waste site near Portobello.‎ Since Powderhall is supposed to close in 2015, it seemed necessary for the members of the Edinburgh Council to accept the suggestion. But soon they turned it down — after 700 local objections reached them — because it would have meant hundreds of lorries a day making loud noise through heavily populated areas.‎ That still leaves the council with a problem. By 2013, only 50% of 1995 levels of waste will be allowed to be sent to landfill. Even if recycling targets are met, there will still be a large amount of rubbish to be burnt up. Due to this, Edinburgh and Midlothian councils have now decided to work together to build an incinerator plant as time to find a solution is fast running out.‎ ‎ 59. The main way of handling waste in a green manner in Edinburgh is ________.‎ ‎ A. recycling B. restoring C. burying D. burning ‎ 60. The five councils worked out a plan to build an incinerator plant to ________.‎ ‎ A. reduce the cost of burying waste ‎ B. meet the EU requirements ‎ C. speed up waste recycling ‎ D. replace landfill sites ‎ 61. The city council of Edinburgh rejected the suggestion to open a huge landfill site near Portobello because ________.‎ ‎ A. it came from a private company ‎ B. the council was not interested in it ‎ C. it was not supported by EU ‎ D. the local people were against it ‎ 62. What is the final decision of Edinburgh and Midlothian Councils? ‎ ‎ A. To open a new landfill nearby.‎ ‎ B. To close the Powderhall landfill in 2015.‎ ‎ C. To set up a plan for burning waste.‎ ‎ D. To persuade people to deduce their waste.‎ D Feeling blue about world ? “ Cheer up,” says science writer Matt Ridley. “ The world has never been a better place to live in, and it will keep on getting better both for humans and for nature. ”‎ Ridley calls himself a rational optimist — rational, because he’s carefully weighed the evidence; optimistic, because that evidence shows human progress to be both unavoidable and good. And this is what he’s set out to prove from a unique point of view in his most recent book, The Rational Optimist. He views mankind as a grand enterprise that, on the whole, has done little but progress for 100,000 years. He backs his findings with hard facts gathered through years of research.‎ Here’s how he explains his views.‎ ‎1) Shopping fuels invention It is reported that there are more than ten billion different products for sale in London alone. Even allowing for the many people who still live in poverty, our own generation has access to more nutritious food. more convenient transport, bigger houses, better cars, and of course, more pounds and dollars than any who lived before us. This will continue as long as we use these things to make other things. The more we specialize and exchange, the better off we’ll be.‎ ‎2) Brilliant advances One reason we are richer, healthier, taller, cleverer, longer-lived and freer than ever before is that the four most basic human needs — food, clothing, fuel and shelter — have grown a lot cheaper. Take one example. In 1800 a candle providing one hour’s light cost six hours’ work. In the 1880s the same light from an oil lamp took 15 minutes’ work to pay for. In 1950 it was eight seconds. Today it’s half second.‎ ‎3) Let’s not kill ourselves for climate change Mitigating（减轻）climate change could prove just as damaging to human welfare as climate change itself. A child that dies from indoor smoke in a village, where the use of fossil-fuel（化石燃料）electricity is forbidden by well-meaning members of green political movements trying to save the world, is just as great a tragedy as a child that dies in a flood caused by climate change. If climate change proves to be mild, but cutting carbon causes real pain, we may well find that we have stopped a nose-bleed by putting a tourniquet（止血带）around our necks. ‎ ‎ 63. What is the theme of Ridley’s most recent book?‎ ‎ A. Weakness of human nature.‎ ‎ B. Concern about climate change.‎ ‎ C. Importance of practical thinking.‎ ‎ D. Optimism about human progress.‎ ‎ 64. How does Ridley look at shopping?‎ ‎ A. It encourages the creation of things.‎ ‎ B. It results in shortage of goods.‎ ‎ C. It demands more fossil fuels.‎ ‎ D. It causes a poverty problem.‎ ‎ 65. The candle and lamp example is used to show that ________ .‎ ‎ A. oil lamps give off more light than candles ‎ B. shortening working time brings about a happier life ‎ C. advanced technology helps to produce better candles ‎ D. increased production rate leads to lower cost of goods ‎ 66. What does the last sentence of the passage imply ?‎ ‎ A. Cutting carbon is necessary in spite of the huge cost.‎ ‎ B. Overreaction to climate change may be dangerous.‎ ‎ C. People’s health is closely related to climate change.‎ ‎ D. Careless medical treatment may cause great pain.‎ E Which are you more likely to have with you at any given moment—your cell phone or your wallet ? Soon you may be able to throw your wallet away and pay for things with a quick wave of your smart phone over an electronic scanner.‎ In January, Starbucks announced that customers could start using their phones to buy coffee in 6,800 of its states. This is the first pay-by-phone practice in the U.S., but we’re likely to see more wireless payment alternatives as something called near field communication (NFC) gets into America’s consumer electronics. Last December some new smart phones which contain an NFC chip were introduced to the public.‎ Already in use in parts of Asia and Europe, NFC allows shoppers to wave their phones a few inches above a payment terminal—a contact-free system built for speed and convenience. But before NFC becomes widely adopted in the U.S., a few problems need to be worked out, like who will get to collect the profitable transaction（交易）fees. Although some credit card providers have been experimenting with wave-and-pay systems that use NFC-enabled credit cards, cell phone service providers may try to muscle their way into the point-of-sale (POS) market. Three big cell phone service providers have formed a joint venture （合资企业）that will go into operation over the next 15 months. Its goal is “ to lead the U.S. payments industry from cards to mobile phones. ”‎ The other big NFC issue, apart from how payments will be processed, is security, For instance, what’s to stop a thief from digitally pick-pocketing you ? “ We’re still not at the point where an attacker can just brush against you in a crowd and steal all the money out of your phone, ” says Jimmy Shah, a mobile-security researcher. “ Users may also be able to set transaction limits, perhaps requiring a password to be entered for larger purchases.‎ Still uneasy about this digital-wallet business ? Keep in mind that if you lose your smart phone, it can be located on a map and remotely disabled. Plus, your phone can be password protected, your wallet isn’t. ‎ ‎ 67. What is predicted to happen in the U.S. ?‎ ‎ A. The expansion of cell phone companies.‎ ‎ B. The boom of pay-by-phone business.‎ ‎ C. The disappearance of credit cards.‎ ‎ D. The increase of Starbucks sales.‎ ‎ 68. The NFC technology can be used to ________ .‎ ‎ A. ensure the safety of shoppers ‎ B. collect transaction fees easily ‎ C. make purchase faster and simpler ‎ D. improve the quality of cell phones ‎ 69. Three cell phone service providers form a joint venture to ________ .‎ ‎ A. strengthen their relationship ‎ B. get a share in the payments industry ‎ C. sell more cell phones ‎ D. test the NFC technology ‎ 70. According to the passage, what can users do if they lose their smart phones ?‎ ‎ A. Stop the functioning of their phones.‎ ‎ B. Set up a password.‎ ‎ C. Get all the money out of their phones.‎ ‎ D. Cancel large purchases.‎ 第四部分：书面表达（共两节，满分40分）‎ 第一节：完成句子（共10小题；每小题1.5分，满分15分）‎ 阅读下列各小题，根据括号内的汉语提示，用句末括号内的英语单词完成句子，并将答案写在答题卡上的相应题号后。‎ ‎71. Not until two days after the earthquake （她发现）her mother alive.

As students, we can also learn much about teamwork from working in groups. Take one example, we once held a debate competition. And each side contained five students. We five were first debators. Before the competition, we five gathered together to make a good plan and efficient strategy. And then, each of us set out to collect information and materials for the speaking comepition. Afterwards, we gathered again and checked, discussed and corrected the information. ‎ Through these steps, we did win finally.

At first, I did most of the duties myself while other students care little about class activities. As a result, I was tired out and depressed. Then I turned to my teacher and he advised me to cooperate with others. Thus I began to recognize the strengths of my classmates and have everyone do their part in class. ‎ It is working in teams instead of on my own that has freed me of trouble and made my work more efficiently.‎ ‎ ‎
