A
Ashok Gadgil has spent the past three decades helping people in need—and he has no plans to stop. On May 2, Gadgil became the recipient of the $100, 000 Lemelson-MIT Award for Global Innovation. Each year, the honor is given to an inventor who has improved the lives of people in developing countries. Gadgil’s inventions have helped more than 100 million people around the world.
Gadgil is a professor and physicist at the University of California. When he’s not teaching, he works to find solutions to global problems such as energy efficiency and water safety. “I chose to focus on problems where my knowledge of science could help, ”he said.
Gadgil’s global quest to help people began in the 1980s. It all started when he came up with a program to make energy-efficient light bulbs more affordable for people in developing countries.
Then in the 1990s, Gadgil designed his first life-saving invention, UV Waterworks. The device uses ultraviolet light to kill deadly disease-carrying germs from drinking water. Gadgil was inspired to find an inexpensive solution to the clean water crisis after more than 10, 000 people in his home country of India died from an outbreak of Bengal cholera, in 1993. The infection is spread through contaminated food and drinking water. So far, the invention has provided safe drinking water to more than five million people in poor areas.
Many refugees are given food aid. But they still have to cook the meals. In order to do so, refugee women leave the safety of the camps three to five times a week to gather firewood. Cooking over an open flame can be hazardous to one’s health and to the environment, too, because of the amount of smoke it causes. Gadgil worked with the refugee women on designing a clean, fuel-efficient stove. The invention
also helps to save homes more than $300 a year.
As a professor, Gadgil encourages his students to stay positive about finding solutions to hard problems. “Be optimistic when you try a hard problem, ”he says. “It’s when you solve a large problem that you can have a big impact on the world. ”
36. Gadgil was given an award because .
A. he saved many lives in the world
B. he found solutions to global problems
C. his inventions helped people around the world
D. his inventions helped people in developing countries
37. His invention UV Waterworks is meant to .
A. be energy-efficient
B. produce more light
C. kill germs in drinking water
D. help people with cholera
38. What might be the author’s purpose in writing the text?
A. To seek help for the poor areas.
B. To introduce an inventor to help the poor.
C. To show the importance of inventions.

A middle school student who jumped into the hot seat when his school bus driver passed out on the way to class this morning is being praised as a“quick thinker”for leading the bus, and 15 other
students, to safety. Seventh grader Jeremy Wuitschick is being praised by the local police chief for his actions.
Wuitschick hopped out of his seat and grasped the steering wheel(方向盘), pulling the bus over to the side of the road before pulling the keys from the ignition(点火开关). “I’ll give the kid credit for fast thinking. He did the right thing and we’re going to do something for him. The kid definitely deserves credit, ”Milton Police Chief Bill Rhodes told ABC News.
Police officers were informed of a school bus driving irregularly through town around 8 a. m. today, but by the time an officer arrived at the scene, Wuitschick had it under control.

I was just acting on instinct(本能). It was all happening really quickly. ”
Jeff Short, assistant dean for the Fife school district, said the students had been trained in emergency situations on the school bus, including how to shut down the bus in an emergency. A staff member at the school, John McCrossin, happened to be driving behind the bus when the driver lost perception, and rushed onto the bus to administer CPR(心肺复苏)once Wuitschick had pulled over to the side of the road, Rhodes said.
The kids told McCrossin they had already called 911. The bus driver, whose name has not been released, was taken to the hospital.

The Atlantic Ocean is one of the oceans that separate the Old World from the New. For centuries it kept the Americans from being discovered by the people of Europe.
Many wrong ideas about the Atlantic made early sailors unwilling to sail far out into it. One idea was that it reached out to“the edge of the world”. Sailors were afraid that they might sail right of the earth. Another idea was that at the equator the ocean would be boiling hot.
The Atlantic Ocean is only half as big as the Pacific, but it is still very large. It is more than 4, 000 miles(3, 200 km)wide.
Two things make the Atlantic Ocean rather unusual. For so large an ocean it has very few islands. Also, it is the world’s saltiest ocean.
There is so much water in the Atlantic that it is hard to imagine how much there is. But suppose no more rain fell into it and no more water was brought to it by rivers. It would take the ocean about 4, 000 years to dry up. On the average the water is a little more than two miles(3. 2 km)deep, but in places it is much deeper. The deepest spot is near Puerto Rico. This“deep”measures 30, 246 feet—almost six
miles(9. 6 km).
One of the largest mountain ranges of the world rises from the floor of the Atlantic. This mountain range north and south down the middle of the ocean.
The tops of a few of the mountains reach up above the sea and make islands.
Several hundred miles eastward from Florida there is a part of the ocean called the Sargasso Sea. Here the water is quiet, for there is little wind. In the days of sailing vessels the crew were afraid they would be becalmed here. Sometimes they were.
Today the Atlantic is a great highway. It is however, not always a smooth and safe one. Storms sweep across it and pile up great waves. Icebergs float down from the Far North across the paths of ships.
We now have such fast ways of traveling that this big ocean seems to have grown smaller. Columbus sailed for more than two months to across it. A fast modern steam ship can make the trip in less than four days. Airplanes fly from New York to London in only eight hours and from South America to Africa in four!
44. Which world is the Old World?
A. Africa. B. Europe.
C. Asia. D. All of the three above.
45. What caused people to be unwilling to explore the Atlantic?
A. There were no ships big enough to get across the Ocean.
B. Sailors were afraid of being lost in the Ocean.
C. The Atlantic Ocean was very unusual because it has few islands and the saltiest water.
D. Many incorrect ideas made people think the Ocean was full of danger.
46. What is the topic of the fifth paragraph?
A. How deep the water is.
B. How to measure the water in the Atlantic Ocean.
C. How much water the Ocean holds.
D. How rain affects the Ocean water.
47. What does the word“highway”in Paragraph 9 imply?
A. High road. B. Broad way.
C. Fast road. D. Main water way.

Connie Lau hates smoking. “It smells awful, and it’s so bad for you, ”she tells Choices. “It breaks my heart to see my friends smoking. I try to get them to quit. ”
So why does Connie walk into convenience stores and try to buy cigarettes? She is testing to see if stores will sell cigarettes to a minor—a kid who is younger than 18. “You have to be 18 to purchase cigarettes, and I’m 16, so if they sell to me, they’re breaking the law, ”Connie says.
Connie isn’t a vigilante(治安会会员). She works with local police in her town of Castro Valley, California. Officers drive her to stores, and she goes in alone to try to buy cigarettes. If the person behind the counter sells her a pack, an officer comes in and writes the business a ticket for breaking the law.
Most stores obey the law and don’t sell her cigarettes. The law requires that customers show ID if store employees ask them to. “When they ask your age, you can’t lie, ”Connie says. “Most stores don’t sell to me. In a year, we’ve visited almost 150 stores and had only 15 sales. ”
Working undercover can be scary, even with police nearby. Connie said one cashier refused to sell her cigarettes and then got angry when he found out her age. He threatened to call the authorities. “To calm him down, the police went in to explain that I was undercover, ”she says.
Most teens wouldn’t think of going undercover for the police. What’s Connie’s motivation? For starters, she can’t stand smoking. But she also believes it’s important for young people like her to try to make a real impact in their communities. In her view, teens can do more than get good grades in school, do chores at home, and excel in extracurricular activities.
Every time she stops the sale of cigarettes to minors, she’s helping to uphold the law. “A single teenager can make a big difference, ”Connie says. “For the most part, when stores get caught, they learn their lesson and don’t do it again.
”
48. Connie goes to convenience stores to .
A. discover whether stores can sell cigarettes to kids
B. see which stores can sell cigarettes to her friends

A. The owner would be arrested.
B. The owner would be fined.
C. The kids would be punished.
D. The kids would be removed from school.
50. One reason why Connie works undercover is that .
A. Connie wants more smokers to quit smoking
B. Connie wants to get good grades in school
C. Connie hopes to have an impression in the area
D. Connie hopes to be excellent in extracurricular activities
51. Which of the following might be the main idea of the passage?
A. Smoking can be forbidden with the help of a girl.
B. You can stop a store from selling cigarettes to kids.
C. Connie Lau—a brave girl who goes undercover for the policeman.
D. Connie Lau goes undercover to stop stores from selling cigarettes to kids.

It was a bitterly cold day and six inches of snow had fallen the night before. I was five years old and being bundled up by my mom in front of the stove. In those days, a heavy snow was no reason to cancel school. After my mom finished, I walked outside to wait for the school bus.
The snow was heavy on the old and swinging bridge that led from our house, across the river and to the main road. My brothers and I had grown up walking across it, so I wasn’t scared. In fact, when I saw my brothers involved in a snowball fight
on it, I joined in. After hitting my oldest brother in the back with a snowball, I laughed while he picked one up to throw back at me. I ran back to the far end of the bridge and thought I was safe, but he flung(用力扔)his snowball at me with all his strength. I saw it getting closer and closer. I bent down and ducked(闪避)thinking it would sail harmlessly over my head. But at the last second it dropped and it just hit me in the face. It pained me so much that I ran crying back inside to my mom who just shook her head and wiped off my nose, mouth, and eyes. Then she smiled, hugged me and sent me back outside to get on the bus and face life once again.
That wasn’t the last time that I tried to duck the troubles in my way and got hit in the face instead. Over the years I have learned that it is far better not to duck them at all, but rather to look them straight in the eye and learn what they have to teach me.
52. What was the author going to do on that cold day?
A. He was going to school as usual.
B. He was going to go shopping with his mom.
C. He was going to fight with his two brothers.
D. He was going to wait for the bus for his brothers.
53. When the author was waiting for the bus, he .
A. began to find a safe place
B. joined in the snowball fight
C. felt scared of the snowball fight
D. hit his oldest brother with a football
54. Why did the author run back to his mother?
A. He wanted his mother to punish his brother.
B. He wanted to keep himself warmer inside.
C. He wanted his mother to wipe off the snow.
D. He wanted to get comfort from his mother.
55. What should be the best title of this text?
A. The Snowball Fight
B. Remember Not to Duck
C. Mother’s Beautiful Smile
D. Learn from the Football Fight

Ⅳ. 任务型读写(共10小题, 每小题1分; 满分10分)
阅读下面短文, 根据所读内容在表格中的空白处填入恰当的单词。
注意: 每个空格只填一个单词。
Since many of you are planning to study at a college or a university in this country, you may be curious to know what you usually do in a typical week, how you can get along with your fellow students, and so on. These are the questions I want to discuss with you today.
First, let’s talk about what your weekly schedule will look like. No matter what your major may be, you can expect to spend between four and six hours a week for each class attending lectures. Lectures are usually in very large rooms because some courses such as introduction to sociology or economics often have as many as two or three hundred students, especially at large universities. In lectures, it’s very important for you to take notes on what the professor says because the information in a lecture is often different from the information in your textbooks. Also, you can expect to have exam questions based on the lectures. So it isn’t enough to just read your textbooks; you have to attend lectures as well. In a typical week you will also have a couple of hours of discussion for every class you take. The discussion section is a small group meeting usually with fewer than thirty students where you can ask questions about the lectures, the reading, and the homework. In large universities, graduate students, called teaching assistants, usually direct discussion sections.
If your major is chemistry, or physics, or another science, you’ll also have to spend several hours a week in the lab, or laboratory, doing experiments. This means that science majors spend more time in the classroom than non-science majors do. On the other hand, people who major in subjects like literature or history usually have to read and write more than science majors do.

答案解析
Ⅰ.1. 【解析】选C。考查冠词。句意: 他匆匆忙忙记下了这些数字, 以免过后忘记。in a hurry和in case(that)都是固定搭配, hurry前加不定冠词, case前不加任何冠词, 故选C项。
2. 【解析】选A。考查名词辨析。句意: 从他脸上的表情我看得出他不希望我问这个问题。expression此处的意思是“表情”。expectation期待, 预期; explanation解释; impression印象。
3. 【解析】选C。考查名词性从句。句意: 那是不是一个好的解决方法取决于你们怎么看它。whether引导主语从句, 其谓语是depends on。
4. 【解析】选B。考查形容词辨析。句意: 现在原文字句我记不得了, 但其大意我是不会弄错的。curious好奇的; worried着急的; clear清楚的; mistaken错误的。由句意可以推断, 只有“错误的”是符合逻辑的。
5. 【解析】选C。考查介词短语。句意: 萨姆把他的新自行车借给了我, 作为回报, 我请他吃巧克力糖。in charge负责, 主管; in place在合适的位置; in return作为回报; in turn轮流。这里请萨姆吃巧克力糖是对他借给我自行车的回报, 故C项符合句意。
6. 【解析】选B。考查动词短语辨析。句意: 他即使处在巨大的困难中也始终保持着高昂的精神状态并面带微笑。keep up保持, 不下降。hold up举起, 阻挡; set up建立, 开业; take up拿起, 开始从事。
7. 【解析】选C。考查非谓语动词。句意: 每年去医院做两次检查对人们来说是有必要的, 尤其是中老年人。首先“检查”在句中充当的是主语, 所以要用动名词形式; 而对人们来说, 应该是被检查, 所以需要用动名词的被动语态, 也就是being done形式。
8. 【解析】选D。考查非谓语动词。句意: 中国建造了越来越多的高速铁路, 使人们旅游更为便捷。making作结果状语, 相当于which makes. . . 。

【误区警示】

10. 【解析】选C。考查时态。句意: ——哈利, 我们想知道你对我们学校正在进行的改革是怎么看的。——好, 我正要谈到这一点。根据语境, 后一个说话者强调自己马上就要谈到学校改革这一话题, come习惯于用进行时表示将来。
11. 【解析】选B。考查定语从句。句意: 那些饮食脂肪含量高或不爱运动的孩子们会很快发胖。whose在定语从句中作diet的定语, 符合句意。
12. 【解析】选D。考查虚拟语气。句意: ——非常感谢你帮我换了坏轮胎。——别客气, 我只是做了任何其他人都会做的事。后面的介词短语in my place是一种含蓄虚拟条件句, 相当于if they had been in my place, 故需要用虚拟语气表示与过去事实相反的情况。
13. 【解析】选C。考查情景交际。句意: ——早上好, 要一张两人的桌子吗? ——不, 谢谢你。我们正在找旅馆。由下句We are looking for a hotel可知与上面A table for two? 不是一件事情, 结合交际用语知识可知选C项。
14. 【解析】选D。考查倒装结构及such的用法。根据句中的nowhere置于句首, 句子要部分倒装; 当such修饰a/an时, 放在所修饰词的前面, 除此之外, such置于所修饰词后。

My teachers and fellow students,
In a couple of weeks, we’ll say goodbye to our mother school. How time flies!Now it’s really hard for me to put my feelings into words. The past three years has been really a wonderful journey with you guys, full of laughter and tears.
To make the journey safe and fruitful, our great teachers contributed their time,
energy, love and the whole heart. Here, we are extremely grateful for all that you, dear teachers, have done for us.
It’ll soon be the time for us to depart, though unwillingly. But it is not the end. It just means that we’re going to begin a new journey.
Finally, on behalf of all the graduates present here, let me extend our sincere wishes for our mother school and respectable teachers. Thank you!
