A Tyler was born infected with HIV and his mother was also infected. From the very beginning of his life,he was dependent on medications(药物)to enable him to survive. When he was five,he had a tube surgically(外科手术上)inserted in a vein(静脉)in his chest. This tube was connected to a pump,which he carried in a small backpack on his back. Medications were connected to this pump and were continuously supplied through this tube to his bloodstream. At times,he also needed supplemented oxygen to support his breathing.‎ Tyler wasn't willing to give up one single moment of his childhood to this deadly disease. It was not unusual to find him playing and racing around his backyard,wearing his backpack and dragging his tank of oxygen behind him in his little wagon(小推车).All of us who knew Tyler were amazed at his pure joy in being alive and the energy it gave him. Tyler's mom often made jokes on him by telling him that he moved so fast she needed to dress him in red. That way,when she peered through the window to check on him playing in the yard,she could quickly spot him.‎ This terrible disease eventually wore him down. He grew quite ill and,unfortunately,so did his HIVinfected mother. When it became clear that he wasn't going to survive,Tyler's mom talked to him about death. She comforted Tyler by telling him that she was dying too,and that she would be with him soon in heaven.‎ A few days before his death,Tyler beckoned(召唤)me over to his hospital bed and whispered,“I might die soon. I'm not scared. When I die,please dress me in red. Mom promised she's coming to heaven,too. I'll be playing when she gets there,and I want to make sure she can find me.”‎ ‎【语篇解读】 本文主要讲述了身患重病的孩子勇敢面对病魔积极拥抱生活的故事。‎ ‎1.Why did Tyler wear a backpack on his back when he was young?‎ A.Because his mother gave it to him as a gift.‎ B.Because he had no right to choose but to wear it.‎ C.Because he wanted to be different from other kids.‎ D.Because there was a pump in it,which could help with his disease.‎ ‎【答案】 D ‎ ‎【解析】 考查细节理解。根据第一段最后三句“This tube was connected to a pump,which he carried in a small backpack on his back.Medications were connected to this pump and were continuously supplied through this tube to his bloodstream.At times,he also needed supplemented oxygen to support his ‎ breathing.”可知,Tyler小时候要背一个背包是因为里面装了一个泵,泵里是有助于治疗他疾病的药物,故选D。 ‎ ‎2.Tyler asked the writer to dress him in red when he died in order to .‎ A.show red is his favorite color B.see the writer again in the hospital C.make his mother recognize him easily D.persuade his mother to keep her promise ‎【答案】C ‎ ‎3.What's Tyler's attitude towards death?‎ A.Excited.

Musical Aussie accents and Aboriginal art exhibits made me wonder if I had entered without a visa. In fact I was a temporary employee,a public affairs unpaid intern(实习生)for three months during the summer in order to engage myself in the culture of the country where I planned to study the next spring.‎ During the summer I read the Australian news every day. Working at the embassy allowed me to escape the U.S. for six hours per day and learn about what was going on across the planet. After reading the daily Australian and U.S. news I usually helped prepare a PowerPoint presentation for school kids who visited the embassy as part of a school activity. Depending on whether an embassy event was going on,I would attend ‎ weekly meetings to listen to planning and see what I could do to help. Usually there were smaller tasks to be done such as creating visitors' guides.‎ The most fantastic event in which I participated was the visit of the Australian Prime Minister. As the only American among countless Australian media and staff,I felt comfortable and was kept busy taking pictures and recording doorstop interviews at famous sites such as the Capitol. As an intern,you will not be exposed to top secret information,but you are on the inside when it comes to special events.‎ Government work is a useful addition to one's experience. As an embassy employee you will gain invaluable knowledge while spending your summer in a culturally diverse workplace.‎ ‎【语篇解读】 本文是一篇记叙文。讲述了作者为了要到澳大利亚学习提前在位于华盛顿的澳大利亚驻美国大使馆实习的经历。‎ ‎5.What is the author talking about?‎ A.Her embassy internship.‎ B.Her trouble in finding a job.‎ C.Her foreign culture experience.‎ D.Her preparation for future employment.‎ ‎【答案】A ‎ ‎【解析】考查主旨大意。根据全文大意可知,作者主要讲述了她在位于华盛顿的澳大利亚驻美国大使馆实习的经历。‎ ‎6.Why was the author in the Embassy of Australia for three months?‎ A.To apply for a visa.‎ B.To prepare to study in Australia.‎ C.To record musical Aussie accents.‎ D.To appreciate Aboriginal art exhibits.‎ ‎【答案】B ‎ ‎7.What was the author forbidden to do when the Australian Prime Minister visited America?‎ A.Record doorstop interviews.‎ B.Know topsecret information.‎ C.Take pictures of special events.‎ D.Stand among the Australian staff.‎ ‎【答案】B ‎ ‎【解析】考查细节理解。根据倒数第二段最后一句中的“you will not be exposed to topsecret ‎ information”可知,实习生不会接触到绝密信息。‎ ‎8.What can we infer about the author's daily routine at the Embassy?‎ A.It is tiring. B.It is boring.‎ C.It is exciting. D.It is relaxing.‎ ‎【答案】C ‎ C ‎ It's been a good week for new parents:Since Tuesday,three major corporations have changed their parental leave policies to reduce pressure on employees struggling to balance work and life with a new baby. The new program,which will take effect in November,offers up to 16 weeks of fully paid leave to primary caregivers and 10 weeks of medical leave for childbirth,totaling 26 weeks for a birth mother who is her child's primary caregiver. According to The Wall Street Journal,nonprimary caregivers will receive up to 14 weeks of paid leave.‎ ‎“In the US,government mandates(命令)for paid leave are currently slim to nonexistent,”Ms.Morris said,“That means companies must seek the tough balance between supporting employees during major life events and meeting business goals. Too often,employees have not had the support they need.”Data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics say only 13 percent of fulltime workers in the United States had access to paid family leave in 2012.Willis Towers Watson benefits consultant Mary Tavarozzi told Reuters paid leave for American mothers usually lasts around a month.‎ According to The New York Times,the United States is the only highincome country that does not have nationally mandated paid family leave. In contrast,workers in Britain are given up to 50 weeks of family leave,37 weeks of which is paid. Barack Obama has talked about closing this gap between the United States and its peers,The Times reported. In December,he began giving federal employees six weeks of paid family leave following the birth of a child. “It's time we stopped treating childcare as a side issue or a women's issue,and treated it like the national economic priority(优先事项)that it is,”he said in his State of the Union address in January.‎ Some studies have shown that the benefits of paid parental leave are tangible(实际的)beyond the relief new parents experience at being able to focus on their children without worrying about money.‎ ‎【语篇解读】 本文为说明文。介绍了美国三大公司在一周之内相继公布产假修改制度,对那些刚刚有孩子的父母来说这无疑是一大好消息。‎ ‎9.Why is it a good week for new parents?‎ A.The cost they paid will be shared.‎ B.Longer periods of parental leave are expected.‎ C.The policy benefiting them takes effect.‎ D.Employees' working time is becoming shorter.‎ ‎【答案】B ‎ ‎【解析】考查推理判断。根据第一段中的“three major corporations have changed their parental leave policies”可知三大公司相继修改了产假政策;再结合“totaling 26 weeks for a birth mother”可知产假有望延长,故选B。‎ ‎10.What did Ms.Morris say about the US's present paid leave?‎ A.It's well carried out.‎ B.It's supported by employers.‎ C.Few employees really get the benefits.‎ D.It increases the cost of the companies.‎ ‎【答案】C ‎11.What can we infer from Obama's words?‎ A.Women can perform as well as men.‎ B.Childcare should be taken more seriously than the economy. ‎ C.Working conditions for women are worsening.‎ D.The importance of paid family leave was once ignored.‎ ‎【答案】D ‎ ‎【解析】考查推理判断。根据第三段中的“the United States is the only highincome country that does not have nationally mandated paid family leave”可知,美国是高收入国家中唯一一个无全国性的法定带薪产假的国家。再结合“‘It's time we stopped treating childcare as a side issue or a women's issue,and treated it like the national economic priority(优先事项)that it is’”可知,奥巴马解释了这一现象的原因,即忽视了带薪产假的重要性,故选D。‎ ‎12.What may be discussed in the following paragraphs?‎ A.People's reactions to Obama's decision.‎ B.Reasons for a paid family leave program.‎ C.Other advantages of a paid family leave program.‎ D.The gap between the US and other countries.‎ ‎【答案】C ‎ ‎【解析】考查推理判断。根据最后一段的内容尤其是“the benefits of paid parental leave are tangible(实际的)beyond the relief”‎ 可知,带薪产假的好处不仅仅是新手父母在照顾孩子时不需要担心钱的问题,故下文很可能会进一步探讨带薪产假给员工、公司或社会带来的其他好处,故选C。‎
