第一节 (共10小题,每小题2.5分,满分25分)
A
Suddenly another thought went through Kate’s mind like an electric shock. An express train was due to go past about thirty minutes later. If it were not stopped, that long train, full of passengers, would fall into the stream. “Someone must go to the station and warn the station-master,” Kate thought. But who was to go? She would have to go herself. There was no one else.
In wind and rain she started on her difficult way. Soon she was at the bridge that crossed the Des Moines River, a bridge also built of wood, just like the bridge across Honey Creek. The storm had not washed this away, but there was no footpath across it. She would have to cross it by stepping from sleeper(枕木) to sleeper. With great care she began the dangerous crossing, sometimes on her hands and knees, hardly daring to look down between the sleepers into the wild flood waters below. If she should slip, she would fall between the sleepers, into the rapidly flowing stream.
At last——she never knew how long it had taken her——she felt solid ground under her feet. But there was no time to rest. She still had to run more than half a mile and had only a few minutes left. Unless she reached the station before the express did,
many, many lives would be lost.
She did reach the station just as the train came into sight. Fortunately the station-master was standing outside. “The bridge is down! Stop the train! Oh, please stop it!” Kate shouted breathlessly.
The station-master went pale. He rushed into the station building and came back with a signal light. He waved the red light as the train came into the station. It was not a second too early.
21. What did Kate decide to do?
A. Visit the station-master B. Check the signal light.
C.Stop the express train D. Meet the passengers.
22. Which of the following words best describes Kate’s journey?
A. Fruitless. B.Risky. C. Well-planned. D. Boring.
23. Why did the station-master turn pale?
A. He suddenly fell ill. B.He discovered his mistake.
C. He realized the danger. D. He became over-excited.
B
Pop idols are celebrities who burn brighter than regular stars. If a star is someone you can recognize on the street, an idol is someone who will cause a stir at a public appearance.
Without fans, an idol is just an ordinary person, like you and me. As Reese Witherspoon once said while announcing the Oscar for best make-up, movie stars look just like people in documentaries(纪录片) if you see them without make-up.
I was once invited to a private party where about half of the guests were stars and the other half entertainment reporters. Guess what? The good-looking ones were the reporters because they tend to be young, and they glow without make-up.
Some idols are born; some are made. Most idols are created by a machine called the entertainment industry. They may have some charms and talent, but not enough to become famous. They are the raw material out of which a star, or even an idol, is made. An army of behind-the-scenes assistants will hype(炒作) or even make up their
virtues and hide their shortcomings.
Paris Hilton is the kind of star who possesses no real talent but yet is quite well-known. This is the result of endless hype. If you are thrust into the limelight often enough, you can become a celebrity without having any talent.[
Television contest shows create a much fairer more transparent platform where young people can compete and showcase their talent. The soap opera is another platform for idol making. These drama series are long, giving an actor much needed exposure. The actors and actresses are always well-lit, made up and beautifully dressed. Now all they need is some good dialogue from the scriptwriter( 编剧).
24. Which of the following statements agrees with the writer's viewpoint?
A.Most idols are born.
B. Pop idols are not as pretty as you think.
C. Many stars are often good looking
D. The entertainment industry is more popular.
25 .Why does the writer use the example of Paris Hilton?
A. To show that hype is an important element in making a star.
B.To indicate that Paris Hilton is very famous.
C.To prove a star often lacks talent.
D . To show a star is popular because of the acting skills.
26. What does the writer think of the television contest show?
A. More equal B. More formal C. More practical D. More competitive
C
Whenever something looks interesting or beautiful,there’s natural impulse to catch and own it——which means, in this day and age, that we can’t help reaching for our phones to take a picture when seeing beautiful things.
Though this would seem to be a wonderful solution, there are two big problems about taking pictures. Firstly, we’re likely to be so busy taking the pictures that we forget to look at the world whose beauty and interest inspire us to take a photograph in the first place. And secondly, because we feel the pictures are safely stored in our
phones, we never get around to look at them.
These problems would seem to be very much of today, a consequence of the tiny phones in our pockets. But they were noticed right at the beginning of the history of photography ,when the average camera was the size of a grandfather clock. The first person who noticed them was the English art critic ,John Ruskin. He was a travelling lover who realized that most tourists failed to notice or remember the beautiful things they saw.
He argued that humans have a born tendency to respond to beauty and desire to keep it ,but that there are bad expressions of this desire. At worst, we get into buying souvenirs or taking photographs. But, in Ruskin’s eyes, there’s one thing we should do and that is attempting to draw the interesting things we see, and it doesn’t matter whether we happen to have any talent for doing so.
Before the invention of photography, people used to draw far more than they do today. It was an active necessity. But in the mid-19th century, photography killed drawing. It became something only “artists” would ever do, so Ruskin spent four years on a campaign to get people drawing again.
So if drawing had value even when it was practiced by people with no talent,it was for Ruskin because drawing can teach us notice properly rather than watch absent-mindedly. When describing what lies before our eyes with our own hands, we naturally move from a position of observing beauty in a loose way to one where we acquire a deep understanding of its parts.
27. What does the underlined word “impulse” mean?
A. Interest. . B. Habit. C. Urge D. Reaction
28. What does Paragraph 2 mainly talk about?
A. Problems related to taking photos.
B. Reasons for taking pictures in the first place.
C.An effective solution to storing something nice.
D. Methods of storing pictures in phones.
29. It can be inferred that John Ruskin .
A. studied the history of photography B. lived at the origin of drawing
C. was an English literature critic D. lived at the origin of photography
30. How did John Ruskin advise us to remember our travel?
A. By taking photographs. B. By trying drawing what we see.
C. By writing some travel notes. D. By buying meaningful souvenirs.

E. Bollywood pays great attention to traditional values.

Hollywood movies are regularly filled with sex and violence. They can be exciting films but sometimes all you want is a little light-hearted entertainment.
Have you heard of Bollywood? All singing, all dancing and unrealistic, it is the perfect alternative to normal Hollywood movies. Bollywood is the Indian film industry, based in Mumbai, formerly known as Bombay. 31 . Yet Bollywood is the largest producer of films in the world. This year the Indian Filmgare Awards, Bollywood's Oscars, turn 50 years old.
The typical Bollywood movie usually has the following ingredients (要素,成分): a cup of romance, a tea-spoon of comedy, a dash of international sight-seeing, served with a huge slice of singing and dancing. There will also be one brave hero, one beautiful heroine and one bad guy. ___32_ .
Bollywood films are full of ideal things and free of daily worries. _33 . The actors change clothes and locations within a single song. But the audience don't mind. To Indian movie lovers, especially the poor, such films are a gateway to heaven and the stars are their gods. The films take them to a magical world away from their everyday troubles. The films tell them the impossible is possible and that true love conquers all.
__34 . Behind the beautiful scenes, Bollywood still emphasizes traditional family values. In most films, if two lovers want to break an arranged marriage, they can't just run away. They must win over their parents.
Bollywood is a refreshing replacement for those over-thrilling Hollywood films.__35 . They will take you to a brighter, cheerier and more colorful world, where it's still cool to dance around a tree and sing a love song.

第五部分 写作(共1题,满分25分)
Willie’s aunt sent him for a birthday present a little writing book. There was a place in the book for a pencil. Willie thought a great deal of this little book, and always kept it in his pocket.
One day, his mother was very busy, and he called his dog, and said. “Come, Caper, let us have a play.”
When Willie’s mother missed him, she went to the door and looked out, and could not see him any where, but she knew that Caper was with him, and thought they would come back before long.
She waited an hour, and still they did not come. When she came to the gate by the road, she met Mr. Lee, and told him how long Willie had been gone. Mr. Lee thought he must have gone to sleep under the trees. So they went to all the trees under which Willie was in the habit of playing, but he was nowhere to be found.
By this time the sun had gone down. The news that Willie was lost soon spread over the neighborhood, and all the men and women turned out to hunt(搜寻). They hunted all night.[]
The next morning the neighbors were gathered round, and all were trying to think
what to do next, when Caper came rushing into the room. There was a string(丝线) tied round his neck, and a bit of paper tied to it.
Willie’s father, Mr. Lee, took the paper, and saw that it was a letter from Willie. He read it aloud. It said, “O father! Come to me. I am in the big hole in the grassland.”
Everybody ran at once to the far corner of the grassland and there was Willie, alive and well, in the shaft(竖井). Oh, how glad he was when his father caught him in his arms, and lifted him out!
