The school seems bigger;there are more kids and it’s a totally new environment. In fact, it isn’t that bad.‎ High school is a lot like middle school after a while. The first day of course is always scary,and the first day of middle school must have been the same.Of course,the first few days you might get lost while looking for your classes but after a while,what seemed to be a large school really isn’t.‎ One thing that’s really cool about high school is that there are so many more classes you can take. If you happen to like art, there are many art classes. In addition, there are other classes that weren’t available in middle school like photography or psychology. ‎ In high school, there are a lot of things that are similar to how middle school was but at the same time,there are other opportunities available as well. There are more clubs,sports,and other activities you can join in.‎ You’re able to join in these activities and make new friends with kids with the same interest as you.These activities also give you a chance to learn some time you never had the opportunity to learn before.‎ High school has something for everyone.You just have to decide what to take part in,but there’s one thing that’s certain that you’re going to have just as much fun in high school as you did in middle school.And if middle school wasn’t that great for you,high school is a chance to make up for it.‎ High school isn’t just about having fun though.You have to be responsible while you’re growing up .Teachers aren’t going to chase（催促）you up to do your homework.‎ ‎25.The passage is mainly about .‎ A.high school life B.how to take art classes C.the fun side of high school life D.how to make new friends in high school ‎26.In the author’s opinion,high school life .‎ A.is a scary time for everyone B.is full of fun without any worries C.is the same as middle school life ‎ D.is as much fun as middle school life ‎27.It can be inferred that you can do the following things in high school EXCEPT .‎ A.making more friends B.taking photography classes C.getting lost while looking for classes D.ignoring you homework until your teacher reminds you ‎28.The article is probably taken from .‎ A.a travel magazine B.a book review C.an advice column for students D.a film poster C With the Chinese language growing in popularity,the UK government plans to invest （投资）10 million pounds to help more kids learn Mandarin（普通话）.Do you think it is necessary for the UK pupils to learn Mandarin?Some people share their opinions online.‎ Tsd（UK）:The learning of any language can be valuable and rewarding,but it is not suitable for everyone. Chinese is a difficult language to learn and the UK has a poor reputation for teaching foreign languages.Why should they learn Chinese when most people in the world speak English?‎ Mark（US）:I studied French for 2 years in high school and German for 4 years ‎ in college.I studied Mandarin informally for about 4 months before moving to China.Now I speak Mandarin every day as my wife doesn’t speak English.But it is far from being fluent.learning additional languages is a great thing,which offers a different perspective on the world around us. Nowadays,it’s almost necessary to be able to speak more than just your native tongue.‎ George（UK）:No,unless they’re taught from a very early stage of childhood.Mandarin is so difficult. If China really is going to dominate the world, it’ll have to do so by speaking the world’s dominant language---English.‎ Sam（UK）:I don’t think Chinese will become as widely spoken throughout the world as English.It is too difficult to learn as a second language,To learn Chinese you completely have to devote yourself to learning how to write and read it.If you have to learn it besides other subjects you can’t be good at it.But Chinese will become more popular,and that is a good thing.‎ ‎29.What is probably Mark’s main motivation（动机）for learning Chinese?‎ A.Further education.‎ B.Effective communication C.His frequent travel D.The official policy ‎30.What does Sam think of learning Chinese?‎ A.It’s necessary.‎ B.It’s of little use.‎ C.It takes too much time.‎ D.It’s not popular.‎ ‎31.What seems to be the major problem when foreigners try learn Chinese?‎ A.Its difficulty as a language B.Misunderstanding about China C.The great popularity of English D.A lack of learning resources.‎ D About 97% of the world’s water is salty and is found in our oceans and seas.‎ ‎ But, as we can’t drink sea water, how can it be important? ‎ Every part of our seas and oceans contains an amazing number of animals and fish that live at different ocean depths. Most of the different species of animals and fish depend on simple plants for their food. These simple plants called algae (海藻) drift near the surface of the ocean and use sunlight to turn carbon dioxide and water into food and oxygen. In fact, algae produce over half of the oxygen people breathe. How important seawater is!  Each plant or animal in our seas and oceans is an important link in a food chain. The algae are eaten in large amounts by microscopic animals, which are in turn consumed by larger animals. These food chains are delicately（微妙地）balanced. ‎ The bad news about the food chains in the oceans is that they are under threat because of man. People once thought that the oceans were so big that it didn’t matter if we dumped rubbish into them or caught huge quantities of fish and whales for food. But we now know this is not true and fish stocks in the oceans have started to drop. ‎ Thankfully, the world is taking steps to protect the future of our oceans by introducing international agreements to protect marine habitats. Most countries have introduced fishing restrictions（限制）to protect fish stocks in the oceans and new techniques are being pioneered to cope with pollution. Finally, the importance of protecting oceans is being made known to more people. This is just the beginning of a long process to protect the oceans for our future. We depend on the oceans for fish which are an important part of the human diet. How important sea water is! ‎ 32. People used to think that the rubbish thrown into the sea .‎ A.wouldn’t harm the fish in the sea B.wouldn’t change the balance of the food C.wouldn’t be broken down in the sea D.wouldn’t do much harm to the sea ‎33.From the passage ,we learn that .‎ A.most fish and sea animals live at the surface of the seas B.it is very difficult to break the balance of a food chain C.over-fishing has caused the decrease in fish stock D.it won’t be long before the problems concerning oceans will be solved ‎34.Which of the following is NOT a way being used to protect oceans?‎ A.The use of international agreements.‎ B.Forbidding fishing to protect fish stocks.‎ C.The use of new techniques.‎ D.Raising people”s awareness of the need to protect oceans.‎ ‎35.What would be the best title of the passage?‎ A.The Importance of Seawater.‎ B.Life in the Oceans.‎ C.How to Protect Food Chains.‎ D.How to Deal with Seawater Pollution.‎ 第二节 七选五阅读（共5小题；每题2分，满分10分）‎ 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中的两项为多余选项。‎ Everyone knows that fish is good for health.36  But it seems that many people don’t cook fish at home. Americans eat only about fifteen pounds of fish per person per year, but we eat twice as much fish in restaurants as at home. Buying, storing, and cooking fish isn’t difficult.37 This text is about how to buy and cook fish in an easy way.‎ ‎38 Fresh fish should smell sweet: you should feel that you’re standing at the ocean’s edge. Any fishy or strong smell means the fish isn’t fresh. 39 When you have bought a fish and arrive home, you’d better store the fish in the refrigerator if you don’t cook it immediately, but fresh fish should be stored in your fridge for only a day or two. Frozen fish isn’t as tasty as the fresh one.‎ There are many common methods used to cook fish.   40   First,clean it and season it with your choice of spices(料).Put the whole fish on a plate and steam it in a steam pot for 8 to 10 minutes if it weighs about one pound.(A larger one will take more time.)Then,it’s ready to serve.‎ A.Do not buy it.‎ B.The easiest is to steam it.‎ C.This is how you can do it.‎ D.It just requires a little knowledge.‎ E.The fish will go bad within hours.‎ F.When buying fish,you should first smell it.‎ G.The fats in fish are thought to help prevent heart disease.‎ 第三部分：英语知识运用 第一节：完形填空（共20小题；每小题1.5分，满分30分）‎ As my husband,Doug,stood on the busy New York city street trying to stop a taxi,I tried to protect my daughter from the cold December wind and rain.
