B I was at a loss for how to handle the fights among my kick- Many activities had been tried, but they didn’t work. After reading What I Know for Sure written by Oprah Winfrey, a thought occurred to me one day. “Starting with Dora, I want everyone to find the chance to say ‘thank you’.” I declared. “What?” Ashley asked. “What’s going on?’’ “Just do it.” Naturally, the kid all thought I had lost my mind. I wasn’t sure if they were wrong, but I pressed on. “Now, we’re going to keep going around and everyone tells what they’re thankful for.” Clearly doubtful and frustrated, the kids launched in, and I kept them going. “I’m thankful for our house.” “I’m thankful for my clothes.” “I’m thankful for my whole life and everyone in the world.” “What? What am I supposed to say?” ‘‘Keep going.” “I’m grateful for my underwear!” Instant laughter erupted, music to my ears! “Great, lei it out!” I encouraged. “What else?” And that was all we needed. The gratitude--great and small, serious and funny---came rolling out. “My backpack.” “My teachers.” On and on it went until every face was lit with a new kind of joy and laughter. I could sense a new feeling of peace and comfort in the air a reminder of not only our blessings, but the love we really did have for each other. “I’m grateful for being grateful!” Dora declared. “Me, too!” was the unanimous response. I don’t remember the activities that took place the rest of the day. But it was a day when our family was transformed by two simple words: thank you. Since then, it’s become a family motto. 24. Why did the author ask her kids to find the chance to say “thank you”? A. To play games among them. B. To kill their free lime. C. To solve their fights. D. To make them be polite. 25.

What does the underlined word “unanimous” probably mean? A. Funny. B. Unimportant. C. Unexpected. D. Agreed. 27. What may be the best title for the text? A. Mom’s Big Heart B. A Sweet Home C. Magic of a Family Motto D. A Meaningful Family Meeting C Recently actor Adrien Grenier has launched( 发 动 )a campaign to reduce the amount of single-use plastic usage in order to protect and save marine (海洋的)wildlife and the environment. Plastic drinking straws are among many single-use plastic products contributing to the great loss of marine life, but they’re a great place to start because they’re something that are used by millions of Americans who are unaware that they’re so damaging. Americans use more than 500 million straws daily, which is enough to fill 127 school buses each day and they can’t be recycled. That means plastic straws might end up in oceans, where fish and other marine wildlife mistake the small bits for food and swallow them. After seeing a photo of a beached whale with a belly full of plastic, Grenier felt the inspiration to launch the Lonely Whale Foundation, hoping to inspire and educate others on the challenges faced by marine wildlife. Along with stopping the use of straws, Grenier hopes to educate consumer on the dangers of other single-use plastic items such as grocery bags and water bottles. While many Americans use these plastic products in their daily life, there are many alternatives that can help protect the environment such as straws made from stainless steel, glass, and even bamboo instead of plastic. In addition to quitting your straw habit, you can further help the environment by taking the I Choose to Reuse commitment, and stop your use of single-use coffee cups, checkout bags and bottled water. Instead, take advantage of any number of alternative reusable products. Need another reason to stop drinking from straws? Grenier also says using straws can cause wrinkles! 28. Protecting marine wildlife can start with stopping using plastic drinking straws because A. they are marine wildlife’s favorite food B. they are the most harmful plastic products C. they are the plastic products people use most D. they are widely used but their harm isn’t fully realized 29. What made Grenier think of the idea to launch the Lonely Whale Foundation? A. A photo of piles of plastic waste. B. The sight of 127 school buses of straws. C. The fuel that many whales beach on the shore. I). A picture of a beached whale with a belly full of plastic. 30. What will Grenier encourage people to do in their daily life? A. Avoid drinking from bottles. B. Use cloth bags when shopping. C. Purchase single-use coffee cups. D. Use plastic straws to drink repeatedly. 31. Which word can best describe Adrien Grenier? A. Adventurous. B. Humorous. C. Responsible. D. Friendly. D Breathing in polluted air on busy roads is as harmful as passively smoking ten cigarettes a day, new research has found. The drop in pollution had the same effects as avoiding four cigarettes a day. One of the researchers, Saskia van der Zee, explained why they compared the effects of pollution lo passive smoking. “We thought that passive smoking would be easier to understand,” she told The Times. ‘‘You don’t want your neighbors to come into your house and smoke three cigarettes every day.” Earlier this week, doctors warned that Britain is facing a major health emergency unless diesel( 柴 油 )cars are taken off the roads. Emissions ( 排 放 物 ) from diesel cars arc already contributing to smog which has been linked to the deaths of 40,000 people a year. Health charities, medical leaders and environmental groups have called for a modern Clean Air Act lo bring pollution under control. Separately, more than 300 doctors in the Doctors Against Diesel group have written to Theresa May, calling for a diesel reduction. Professor John Middleton, president of the UK Faculty of Public Health, said, “Diesel is the primary source of nitrogen dioxide(二氧化氮)in urban areas and is linked to health effects that begin before birth and extend throughout life, from childhood lung development to increased risk of heart disease, stroke and lung cancer. It is high lime lo handle the problem.” London is already planning to introduce an “emission zone” which diesel drivers would be charged to enter, and other cities are set to follow. But exerts are desperate to find new ways to control the damage done by pollution. Diesel drivers in Westminster have been told they may soon be charged 50 percent extra for on-street parking. And Sadiq Khan, the mayor of London ， submitted a £ 3,500 plan to encourage drivers to switch to petrol or electric cars. “Cutting diesel emissions would therefore have an immediate effect on children’s personal exposure, and improve their long-term health.” A government spokesman said. 32. Why did the researchers compare pollution to smoking? A. It’s easier for people to understand. B. It’s hard for people to quit smoking. C. It’s a bad habit to smoke at home. D. It’s harmful to breathe in polluted air. 33. How can the major health emergency be solved according to Britain doctors? A. Give up smoking. B. Abandon diesel cars. C. Make strict laws. D. Schedule yearly exams. 34. What can we infer from what Professor John Middleton said? A. Cutting diesel emissions is urgent. B. Prevention is better than relief. C. Children are the worst victims. D. People ignored the harm of diesel. 35. What is the purpose of the plan put forward by Sadiq Khan? A. To improve air quality with high technology. B. To limit the total number of cars on roads. C. To inspire people to choose greener vehicles. D. To carry out license plate restrictions. 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，并在答题卡上将该项 涂黑。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Everybody has dreams, but not all these dreams can come true easily. 36 Read on and you can make your dream come true. Break your dream down into manageable “projects”. Achieving a dream can be complex and you might need to complete a number of different “projects” as you go forward. 37 Remember that you need to have all the parts and tools you need in order to be successful in achieving your dream. Take action on each “project”. Start taking action on each part of your dream. If you can, work on all of your projects at the same time—for example, try to do something for each project each week. 38 And keeping yourself moving forward is one of the best ways to motivated toward achieving your goal. 39 Find out how others have accomplished their goal. Do some research to find out how other people have achieved the same dream. Seek out the people who have achieved their dreams and talk with them or read their stories. Find out what they learned from their journey, and what they like best about achieving their dreams. You can find out about other successful dreamers by reading their biographies, watching documentary films, or reading about people on the Internet. Always know what’s next on your list. As you are taking action on the different projects that lead you to your dream, be sure that you always know what to do next. Being unsure of your next step is one common way that people get stuck in their progress toward a goal. 40 Be sure that you will be ready for each one. A. Be inspired by others. B. People give up their dreams for this or that reason. C. Manage your lime so that there is room for your dream. D. Each week revisit your project lists to see what tasks are coming up. E. Achieving your dream might require you to gain new skills or knowledge. F. Figuring out what the different “projects” arc will move you toward your dream. G. Even if you are moving in small steps toward your goal, you are still heading in the right direction. 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；域小题 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 和 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。 My 10-year-old son Arthur loves to help others.

Text 2 W: I wonder if future people will still be able to breathe fresh air, drink clean water and see the blue sky. M: I think that’s really a problem and it is time man learned to live in harmony with nature. Text 3 W: When do you think Mr. Smith will be back? M: When he left at 5:15, he promised to be back in 20 minutes. Text 4 M: How did you get this job? W: Last year I took a visit to London. I went to lunch at the Palace Hotel and thought, “I’d really like to work here.” So I wrote to see if they had any positions, and I was lucky they did. Text 5 W: Mike, there’s not much left in the fridge.Well,I might be able to pick up a few things after work,but I have to be back rather late today. M: In that case, we’ll have to have a meal out at McDonald’s. W: Well, I’m afraid so. Text 6 M: Hey, Karen, what are you reading? Physics? W: Oh, no. M: You haven’t turned the page in the last ten minutes. It doesn’t really hold your interest? W: No, not really. But I have to read it for a test. I should say, I don’t like Dickens at all and I’m starting to like the whole course less and less,although the course itself isn’t really that bad.It’s me,I suppose.I wanted to do chemistry rather than English, but my parents took me out of it. M: So you $ d better choose a different one. W: But my parents don’t think so. They only care if I can find a good job in the future. Text 7 M: Hi. I’m calling about the apartment.

W: You definitely want to write a couple of sentences about who you are outside of school and work. Remember， you’re not some robot who is going to perform tasks over and over at work. You’re a human being whose personality will be part of the company. M: All right. Anything else? W: In the personal interests section, you can also list any special skills youhave.

No deaths have been reported, but four people have been taken to the hospital. In the meantime, we advise drivers to take the 405 North instead.

Still，the scientists hope that this planet might tell them something about whether life might exist somewhere else in outer space. A picture of the new planet can be seen on our website. A dog is being called a hero after saving a three-year-old child yesterday in a park in Glasgow, Scotland. Mr. and Mrs. Darvish, the owners of the dog, were relaxing in Macintosh Park when they noticed that their son Joseph was missing. Their dog Pancho started barking and making a lot of noise. The dog ran away and kept looking back at his owners. When the couple finally followed Pancho, he led them straight to a small lake，where their son was about to go in the water.The couple was able to get to their son in time, and Pancho got his picture in the paper...plus a nice steak from the meat shop!
