The 8-year-old is the joker of the class. With shining dark eyes, he seems like the kind of kid who would enjoy public speaking.‎ But he’s nervous.＂I’m here to tell you today why you should … should…＂Chris trips on the＂-ld,＂a pronunciation difficulty for many non-native English speakers. His teacher, Thomas Whaley, is next to him, whispering support.＂…Vote for …me …＂Except for some stumbles, Chris is doing amazingly well. When he brings his speech to a nice conclusion, Whaley invites the rest of the class to praise him.‎ A son of immigrants, Chris started learning English a little over three years ago. Whaley recalls（回想起）how at the beginning of the year, when called upon to read, Chris would excuse himself to go to the bathroom.‎ Learning English as a second language can be a painful experience. What you need is a great teacher who lets you make mistakes. ＂It takes a lot for any student,＂ Whaley explains, ＂especially for a student who is learning English as their new language, to feel confident enough to say, ‘I don’t know，but I want to know.’＂‎ Whaley got the idea of this second-grade presidential campaign project when he asked the children one day to raise their hands if they thought they could never be a president. The answer broke his heart. Whaley says the project is about more than just learning to read and speak in public. He wants these kids to learn to boast（夸耀）about themselves.‎ ‎＂Boasting about yourself, and your best qualities,＂ Whaley says, ＂is very difficult for a child who came into the classroom not feeling confident.＂‎ ‎24. What made Chris nervous？‎ A. Telling a story. B. Making a speech.‎ C. Taking a test. D. Answering a question.‎ ‎25. What does the underlined word ＂stumbles＂ in paragraph 2 refer to?‎ A. Improper pauses. B. Bad manners. C. Spelling mistakes. D. Silly jokes.‎ ‎26. We can infer that the purpose of Whaley’s project is to _________.‎ A. help students see their own strengths ‎ B. assess students’ public speaking skills C. prepare students for their future jobs D. inspire students’ love for politics ‎27. Which of the following best describes Whaley as a teacher?‎ A. Humorous. B. Ambitious. C. Caring. D. Demanding.‎ C As data and identity theft becomes more and more common, the market is growing for biometric（生物测量）technologies—like fingerprint scans—to keep others out of private e-spaces. At present, these technologies are still expensive, though.‎ Researchers from Georgia Tech say that they have come up with a low-cost device（装置）that gets around this problem: a smart keyboard. This smart keyboard precisely measures the cadence（节奏）with which one types and the pressure fingers apply to each key. The keyboard could offer a strong layer of security by analyzing things like the force of a user’s typing and the time between key presses. These patterns are unique to each person. Thus, the keyboard can determine people’s identities, and by extension, whether they should be given access to the computer it’s connected to — regardless of whether someone gets the password right.‎ It also doesn’t require a new type of technology that people aren’t already familiar with. ‎ Everybody uses a keyboard and everybody types differently.‎ In a study describing the technology, the researchers had 100 volunteers type the word ＂touch＂four times using the smart keyboard. Data collected from the device could be used to recognize different participants based on how they typed, with very low error rates. The researchers say that the keyboard should be pretty straightforward to commercialize and is mostly made of inexpensive, plastic-like parts. The team hopes to make it to market in the near future. ‎ ‎28. Why do the researchers develop the smart keyboard?‎ ‎ A. To reduce pressure on keys. B. To improve accuracy in typing ‎ ‎ C. To replace the password system. D. To cut the cost of e-space protection.‎ ‎29. What makes the invention of the smart keyboard possible?‎ ‎ A. Computers are much easier to operate.‎ ‎ B. Fingerprint scanning techniques develop fast.‎ ‎ C. Typing patterns vary from person to person. ‎ ‎ D. Data security measures are guaranteed.‎ ‎30. What do the researchers expect of the smart keyboard?‎ ‎ A. It’ll be environment-friendly. B. It’ll reach consumers soon. ‎ ‎ C. It’ll be made of plastics. D. It’ll help speed up typing.‎ 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。‎ Is Fresh Air Really Good for You?‎ We all grew up hearing people tell us to ＂go out and get some fresh air＂ . 31 According to recent studies, the answer is a big YES, if the air quality in your camping area is good.‎ ‎ 32 If the air you’re breathing is clean — which it would be if you’re away from the smog of cities — then the air is filled with life-giving, energizing oxygen. If you exercise out of doors, your body will learn to breathe more deeply, allowing even more oxygen to get to your muscles（肌肉）and your brain.‎ Recently, people have begun studying the connection between the natural world and healing（治愈）. 33 In these places patients can go to be near nature during their recovery. It ‎ turns out that just looking at green, growing things can reduce stress, lower blood pressure, and put people into a better mood（情绪）. Greenery is good for us. Hospital patients who see tree branches out their window are likely to recover at a faster rate than patients who see buildings or sky instead. 34 It gives us a great feeling of peace.‎ ‎ 35 While the sun’s rays can age and harm our skin, they also give us beneficial Vitamin D. To make sure you get enough Vitamin D — but still protect your skin — put on sunscreen right as you head outside. It takes sunscreen about fifteen minutes to start working, and that’s plenty of time for your skin to absorb a day’s worth of Vitamin D.‎ A. Fresh air cleans our lungs.‎ B. So what are you waiting for?‎ C. Being in nature refreshes us.‎ D. Another side benefit of getting fresh air is sunlight.‎ E. But is fresh air really as good for you as your mother always said?‎ F. Just as importantly, we tend to associate fresh air with health care.‎ G. All across the country, recovery centers have begun building Healing Gardens.‎ 第三部分 语言知识运用（共两节，满分45分）‎ 第一节（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A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。‎ Every year about 40,000 people attempt to climb Kilimanjaro, the highest mountain in Africa.

The environmental challenges are 43 but the efforts made by the Tanzania National Park Authority seem to be 44 .‎ The best of a Kilimanjaro 45 , in my opinion, isn’t reaching the top.

While they are rare north of 88°, there is evidence 56 they range all the way across the Arctic, and as far south as James Bay in Canada. It is difficult to figure out a global population of polar bears as much of the range has been 57 (poor) studied; however, biologists calculate that there are about 20,000-25,000 polar bears worldwide.‎ Modern methods 58 tracking polar bear populations have been employed only since the mid-1980s, and are expensive 59 (perform) consistently over a large area. In recent years some Inuit people in Nunavut 60 (report) increases in bear sightings around human settlements, leading to a 61 (believe) that populations are increasing. Scientists have responded by 62 (note) that hungry bears may be congregating(聚集) around human settlements, leading to the illusion(错觉) that populations are 63 (high) than they actually are. Of 64 nineteen recognized polar bear subpopulations, three are declining, six 65 (be) stable, one is increasing, and nine lack enough data.‎ 第四部分 写作（15分）‎ 假定你是李华，暑假在伦敦学习，得知当地美术馆要举办中国画展。请写一封信申请做志愿者，内容包括：‎ ‎1．写信目的：2．个人优势：3．能做的事情。‎ 注意：‎ ‎1．词数100左右；‎ ‎2．可以适当增加细节，以使行文连贯；‎ ‎3．结束语已为你写好。‎ ‎【参考答案】‎ ‎1-5ABCBA  6-10 BCACA  11-15ACBCA  16-20CBCAB ‎21-25 BDDBA 26-30 ACDCB 31-35 EAGCD 36-40 DCCBA ‎41-46 CDCAB 47-50DABDA 51-55CBDAB 56. that 57. poorly 58. of/for 59.to perform 60. have reported ‎61. belief 62. noting 63. higher 64. the 65. are 书面表达 Dear Sir/Madam,‎ I’m Li Hua, an exchange student from China during this summer vacation.
