For many people the answer is your Wedding Day—the day when you marry another person and promise to live together as husband and wife for the rest of your lives.‎ Wedding celebrations differ from country to country—in China the bride wears red while in India the wedding continues for three days. However, in Britain the bride wears white and wedding usually only lasts for one day.‎ In the UK it is possible to get married in a religious or civil ceremony. A religious ceremony takes place in a church. A civil ceremony, on the other hand, can be held in an office, in a hotel, or even on a boat.‎ On the day of the wedding the bride and groom are kept separate until the ceremony. It is said to be bad luck if the groom sees the bride in her dress before the wedding. The bride arrives at the ceremony accompanied by her father and bridesmaids. They officially give her away to her new husband. During the ceremony the happy couple exchange vows and give each other wedding rings which they will wear forever. At the end of the ceremony they kiss.‎ Afterwards they go outside where friends and family throw rice or color papers over them and then they go on to the reception where there is a lot of food and drink. After the meal the father of the bride and the best man make speeches. Then the bride and groom take the first dance. It is a lot of fun. Finally, at the end of the party the newly-weds leave to go on honeymoon, usually to a very romantic destination.‎ ‎24. What function is the first two paragraphs?‎ ‎ A .To tell us that we have most important day in our life.‎ B. To tell us Wedding day is the day when you marry another person and promise to live together.‎ ‎ C. To tell us that people hold wedding. ‎ ‎ D.

The bride and bridegroom will take the first dance.‎ C ‎ Australian scientists are trying to give kangaroo-style stomachs to cattle and sheep in order to cut the greenhouse gases they send out, which is thought to be responsible for global warming.‎ ‎ Thanks to special bacteria in their stomachs, kangaroo flatulence (肠胃气胀） contains no methane and scientists want to transfer that bacteria to cattle and sheep who produce large quantities of the harmful gas.‎ ‎ While the usual image of greenhouse gas pollution is a billowing smokestack, pushing out carbon dioxide, farm animals’ passing wind contribute a surprisingly high percentage of total emissions in some countries.‎ ‎ “Fourteen percent of emissions from all sources in Australia are from enteric methane from cattle and sheep,” said Athol Klieve, a senior research scientist with the greensland state government. “And if you look at another country such as New Zealand, which has got a much higher agricultural base, they are actually up around 50 percent,” he said.‎ ‎ Researchers say the bacteria also make the digestive process much more efficient and could potentially save millions of dollars in feed costs for farmers. But it will take researchers at least three years to isolate the bacteria before they can even start to develop a way of transferring it to cattle and sheep.‎ ‎ Another group of scientists, meanwhile, have suggested Australians should farm fewer cattle and sheep and just eat more kangaroos. And about 20 percent of health-conscious Australians are believed to eat the national symbol already.‎ ‎ It’s low in fat, it ’s got high protein levels and it is very clean in the sense that basically it is free-range(放养的) animal,” said Peter Ampt of the University of New South Wales’ institute of environmental studies.‎ ‎28. Scientists intend to put bacteria into cattle and sheep________.‎ A. to help Australian farmers to earn more money ‎ B. to prevent them from sending out harmful gases ‎ ‎ C. so that they can protect Australian ecosystem ‎ D. so that they can make full use of special bacteria ‎29. Athol Klieve seems to believe that _________.‎ ‎ A. farm animals are to blame for greenhouse gases ‎ B. less cattle and sheep are raised in New Zealand ‎ C. cattle and sheep produce less carbon dioxide ‎ D. New Zealand has the most animals in the world ‎30. The advantages Peter Ampt lists about kangaroos don’t include ________.‎ ‎ A. it is rich in protein B. it is low in fat ‎ C. it is cheaper than beef ‎ D. it is cleaner than sheep ‎31. The main idea of the passage is to ________.‎ ‎ A. discuss a better way to protect the earth ‎ B. warn farmers of the danger of animal waste ‎ C. explain the possible solutions to pollution ‎ D. present a recent study on global warming D When you put down your pens at the end of college entrance exam, 12 hard years of study will have come to an end. Forget your studies for a while. It’s time to enjoy yourselves!‎ ‎ There are many ways to celebrate this special month of graduation. You can have photos taken with your classmates and teachers, or dine out together and exchange gifts.‎ ‎ High school students in western countries such as the United States and Canada usually have a party to mark their graduation. It is to mark the time when kids turn into young men and women. After the party, teenagers either go to college or find a job. It means they will no longer depend on their parents as before.‎ At the party, boys usually dress in dinner jackets and bow ties, though many different types of formal clothes are worn. Girls traditionally wear formal dresses, or dress to shock or be noticed, in shiny or brightly colored materials.‎ Common party activities include dining, dancing, crowning of a ball king and queen, and just talking to friends. In some cases, high school students collect funds for their class party through the four years of their high school.‎ High schools in or near large cities may rent big rooms at expensive hotels or, to be unusual, on a pleasure boat. But often costs are cut by simply using the school gym. Students make a lot of efforts to decorate the gym to make the event special. The music played at the party will be the most popular kinds, like rock and hip-hop.‎ Sometimes teachers and parents also go to the party. But others like to go with friends, to whom they are soon going to say good-bye.‎ If you like the idea of a party, why don’t you and your classmates organize one for your graduation?‎ ‎32. The writer’s purpose in writing this passage is to ________.‎ A. tell an interesting experience of high school students B. tell how the western students spend the last days of high school C. tell how western high school students usually celebrate graduation D. introduce several ways of the western students’ killing time ‎33. What does the party mean for western high school students that are about to graduate?‎ ‎ A. They have finished high school and will go to college.‎ B. These teenagers can find a job to support themselves.‎ ‎ C. They have grown up and need friends’ help.‎ D. They are adults and will not depend on parents.‎ ‎34. What does the underlined word “mark ” in paragraph 3 mean?‎ A.remember B. celebrate C.sign D.show ‎35. From the fourth paragraph ,we can infer that ________.‎ ‎ A. the party is very interesting ‎ B. girls like to make themselves beautiful at all hours ‎ C. boys wear as usual to attend the party ‎ D. graduates pay much attention to the party 第二节 ‎（共5小题；每小题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，选项中有两项为多余选项。 ‎ ‎ 36 Sometimes they try to get out of a class to escape a teacher they don’t like. Here is some advice to solve this problem.‎ Ask yourself, “What can I learn from this teacher?” Even if you don’t worship his or her personality or lectures, dig deep until you find a subject in which he or she is very knowledgeable. Focus on that part of the teacher’s personality, and use him or her as a tool for learning. Not only will you gain more knowledge in that subject, but a closer relationship with your teacher may help you understand one another better. 37 ‎ Talk to students who are doing well in the class and ask them for tips, tools, and a plan of action to get along with the teacher better. 38 ‎ If you still can’t get along, make an appointment with the school guidance counselor (辅导员). He or she will offer many tips and suggestions for you to get out of difficult teacher relationships. 39 That means they can help you and your teachers get rid of the bad impression on each other.‎ ‎ 40 Your parents can meet with your teacher and try to work it out.‎ Teachers are there for more than just homework, and they know about more than just their subject matter. They can help you learn how to function as an adult and a lifelong learner.‎ Undoubtedly, these will be a few teachers along the way who you will always remember and who might change your life forever.‎ A. If your relationship problems can’t be solved in school, then it’s time to tell your parents or guardians.‎ B. If you’re too shy to talk to another student, study his or her actions and behavior in the classroom and try to follow that lead.‎ C. Students don’t always get along well with their teachers.‎ D. There must be something good in every teacher for you to learn from.‎ E. Students find it easy to get along well with their teachers.‎ F. Sometimes a guidance counselor can act as a mediator between you and the teacher.‎ G. Guidance counselors have the right to blame teachers.‎ 第三部分 英语知识运用（共两节，满分45分）‎ 第一节 ‎ 完形填空（共20小题；每小题1.5分，满分30分）‎ ‎ 阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的四个选项（A、B、C、D）中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。‎ The town of Pressure and the town of Pleasure were neighbors but they had ___41___ in common.

I’m Professor Garson and I will be your advisor this term.‎ This is your first day and I want to explain some of the subjects. First, everyone must take three required subjects: maths, English and history. The only one which is arranged for you is English. You’re to be tested and will be placed at your level in that subject. The only requirement for maths is that you’ve completed the previous level. History is open at all levels since study is usually divided into the different historical time periods. In history, you may choose from almost any culture and time. Unless you are studying at a specific cultural and time period, you’re free to choose the history course that you’re most interested in. As long as there’s place in the class, of course. Your optional courses are the subjects you can choose. They are courses that are not required and may be in fields such as science, art, sports, computer science, business — almost anything that you can think of. I can help you make a plan that will include your required and optional courses. Your plan must have the necessary number of units. Sometimes there may be no room in a course, but we can try to schedule the course for another term.‎ OK. That’s all for you. You may come to me if you have any questions after my speech.‎
