Location: Songkran is the Thai New Year. The entire country gets a lot of days off, and most Thai people will be going back home to celebrate Songkran with their families. Just expect a lot of traffic jams on the road as everyone is out on pick-up trucks, throwing water at each other. Details: Staring in the early morning on April 13th, the water ceremony will take many forms. Initially, you are only supposed to sprinkle (洒) your family with a tiny cup of water at home. It’s good luck. Then you sprinkle a statue of Buddha very respectfully and do a little pray. Later in the morning, the game starts to change. Because this is the hottest time of the year, sprinkling each other with water is a lot of fun. Add a little beer to that and Songkran turns into a country-wide water war. It starts rather gently in Phuket Town around 10 am, turning to water dogfights (混战) in the afternoon in Patong, Kata and Karon, and ends full-scale wet war zone in Bangla Road until late at night. Survival Tips: ★ Don’t drive a bike if you can avoid it. It’s slippery and the tendency to close eyes when water is thrown at you is dangerous. ★ Get a waterproof camera ★ Be aware of major traffic jams in towns, mostly in Patong Beach. ★ Don’t carry anything that doesn’t resist water. ★ Don’t wear expensive clothing. ★ Be aware of the sun! ★ Have fun! Don’t take it too seriously, it’s good. 1. Why do traffic jams happen during Sognkran? A. The road is slippery. B. The entire country gets a lot of days off. C. The people are throwing water at each other. D. Everyone is sprinkling his family on the road. 2. What’s the first step to celebrate Songkran? A. Doing a little pray. B. Sprinkling a statue of Buddha. C. Sprinkling family with a little water. D. Sprinkling each other with much beer. 3. Which of the following is recommended during Songkran? A. Carrying an umbrella. B. Wearing cheap clothes. C. Bringing some cash. D. Riding a bicycle B. Four days of fun, sun and celebrities, as well as networking, career workshops and mentoring (指导), were in store for two Long Island teens chosen to take part in the 12th annual Disney Dreamers Academy (DDA) at Walt Disney World Resort in Orlando, Florida. Chosen from thousands of applicants, Tianna Gonzales of Lake Grove and Kaiya Simmons of Miller Place were part of a group of 100 young people who marched in the Magic Kingdom parade and made conversation with Academy Award-winning costume designer Ruth Carter and actor Miles Brown. Born in Charleston, South Carolina, Kaiya Simmons, 14, moved to Miller Place at the age of 3. A ninth grader at Miss Porter School in Farmington, Connecticut, Kaiya says she enjoys acting, art and science and is currently studying environmental science. “It is fun learning about the environment and different ways to help protect it,” Kaiya says, adding, “I am also learning different techniques to improve my acting on stage and in film.” After high school, Kaiya hopes to attend Yale University and undertake a career as a doctor. Tianna Gonzales, a 10th grader at Sachem North High School, is interested in psychology and music and plays saxophone (an instrument) for the school’s marching band, orchestra and band. Other school activities include track, Model United Nations, foreign language and art club honor societies. “Once I graduate, I plan to undertake a career in the film world, hopefully attending New York University or New York Film Academy,” she says. “Through storytelling, we can shape this century to be an even stronger attraction for societal change.” The Disney Dreamers Academy is aimed at helping to inspire young people during a critical time of their development, “Our goal is to help them see the unlimited possibilities and to inspire them to achieve their full purpose—to become the heroes of their own stories,” says Tracey D.

C The rebuilt Notre Dame (巴黎圣母院) could feature a futuristic glass design, solar power, and an urban farm that supports vulnerable and homeless Parisians, if one architecture firm’s vision is realized. In April, French Prime Minister Edouard Philippe announced an international competition for architects to redesign the cathedral’s 19th century spire (尖顶), which fell down after a fire destroyed the 850-year-old Gothic landmark. Paris firm Vincent Callebaut Architectures (VCA) responded to the call with an eco-friendly design that supports the local population and produces more energy than it uses. The Vincent Callebaut (VC) project is titled “Palingenesis”, a Greek concept of rebirth or recreation. The film proposes a new roof made of galss, oak and carbon fiber, which connects “in one single curved stroke of pencil” to the sloping spire. The rooster which topped the original spire, regained front the remains after the fire, will resume its watch from the new glass design, while the cathedral’s choir will be “bathed in natural light”. Beneath the spire, the roof will host a fruit and vegetable farm run by charities and volunteers, in order to produce free food for vulnerable local people. “Up to 21 tons of fruits and vegetables could be harvested and directly redistributed for free each year,” the firm said in a press release. “To that end, a farmers’ market would be held every week on the forecourt of Notre Dame.” The roof and spire will also produce electricity, heat and ventilation (air circulation) for the cathedral: an “organic active layer” within the glass will provide solar power, while the roof’s diamond-shaped “scales” will open to offer natural ventilation—a design inspired by termite mounds (白蚁丘). The spire will at as a space in which hot air accumulates in winter. “How can we write the contemporary history of our country, but also that of science, art and spirituality together?” the firm said in a press release. “We seek to present a supreme project, a symbol of a lively and ecological future.” If the Vincent Callebaut design is selected, the firm said, the reborn Notre Dame will define “the new face of the Church in the 21st century”, presenting “a fairer symbiotic relationship between humans and nature.” 8. What can be learned about the design of Notre Dame by VCA? A. It is focused on the theme of “green”. B. It gets the most local support than the others. C. It can recover Notre Dame’s original appearance. D. It is from the most famous architect around the world. 9. What does the underlined part “resume its watch” in paragraph 2 mean? A. Be made of high-tech materials. B. Show people the right time again. C. Be removed and placed somewhere else. D. Overlook Notre Dame again at its original place. 10. What does paragraph 3 mainly talk about? A. The inspiration of the design. B. The function of the roof and the spire. C. A detailed introduction of the VCA project. D. The symbol of Notre Dame for the local people. 11. What can be inferred from the last paragraph? A. The future of the new Notre Dame looks black. B. The proposal for the Notre Dame has been approved. C. The VCA is confident about winning the competition. D. The new design of Notre Dame will be a mix of history, science and art. D A new study published this week in the journal Nature Communications has concluded that a 100 percent change to organic (有机的) food production in England and Wales would actually lead to a great increase in greenhouse gas emissions (排放). In turn, this would contribute to further climate change. Although organic farming directly pours out fewer emissions than conventional farming—around 20 percent lower for crops and 4 percent for farm animals—it produces notably less food. As to this study’s findings, total organic agriculture in England and Wales would produce 40 percent less food. With less food in the market, the countries would need to increase food imports, which would produce more global greenhouse gas emissions. Organic farming also increases the amount of absorbing carbon, a process where carbon dioxide (CO2) is “absorbed” out of the atmosphere and captured by plants and stored in the soil. However, even a total change to organic farming would only be equal to a tiny part of the higher emissions from overseas land use. “We predict a drop in total food production of 40 percent under a fully organic farming process, compared to conventional farming, if we keep to the same national diet,” Dr Adrian Williams, lead author and reader in Agri-Environmental Systems at Cranfield University, said in a statement. “This results from lower crop quantity, because output is limited by a lower supply of nitrogen, which is mainly from other crops or solid waste from cattle on the grassland.” Nevertheless, it is important to note that organic farming still holds some useful benefits for the environment, such as reducing exposure to chemicals and improving the varieties of creatures. In conclusion, the study suggests that organic farming will continue to play a key role in resolving the world’s environmental problems. However, it’s just one part of a much wider solution. 12. What will total organic agriculture bring to England? A. More main food. B. More species crop. C. More food imports. D. More fresh oxygen. 13. How does organic farming increase the amount of absorbing carbon? A. By taking in CO2. B. By changing CO2. C. By giving off CO2. D. By producing CO2. 14. What is the last paragraph mainly about? A. The ways to reduce organic farming. B. The results caused by organic farming. C. The solution to the environment problems. D. The advantages of organic farming. 15. Which of the following is the best title of the text? A. Organic farming, green food B. Organic farming, our hope in future C. Organic farming, a mistake we made D. Organic farming, a double-edged sword 第二节(共 5小题；每小题 2.5分，满分 12.5分) 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选 项。 In an ancient folktale, a giant rock blocks the entrance to a care filled with treasure. A door appears only for those who speak a secret phrase aloud: “Open, sesame (芝麻)!” ____16____ Passwords have changed ever since. Now they safeguard digital treasures, such as pictures, messages, and documents. But the reason why the phrases exist is still the same: to keep the wrong people out. ____17____ And when they can figure out a person’s password, they can access private information. This allows them to play practical jokes, such as posting that information online. ____18____ There are passwords to avoid if you want to be safe online. The most popularly used password is 123456.

One of the best ways kids can keep their information secure is by thinking up strong passwords. So how can you invent a password that’s easy for you to remember but hard for someone else to guess? ____20____ For example, a lyric from your favorite song, or the title of a book or movie. It’s best if the phrase is relevant to your life because you’ll be less likely to forget it. Then take the first letter or first couple of letters from each word in that phrase, and begin switching those letters to symbols or numbers. Use both uppercase and lowercase (大写和小写) letters to make the password even trickier to crack (破解). A. You can think of a fun phrase. B. This is an early example of a password. C. This may include a date of birth or a pet’s name. D. You will benefit from making your passwords stronger. E. No wonder your information was stolen a couple of times. F.

I was just finishing the dinner dishes when the phone rang. It was unusual because our landline seldom rang. Nearly everyone we knew contacted us on our cell phones. “This is Janet Rhodes.” said a familiar voice that I struggled to place. That name seemed familiar, too. I knew a lot of people, having lived on two coasts and in most major cities in California for the past thirty years. “I am calling because I need to apologize to you,” Janet stated. That’s when I suddenly realized who she was. “That day when I came into your classroom and chewed you out for disciplining my daughter, I was way out of line. I know now that you were doing what was best for her. You were right.” Twenty years earlier, it was only my second year of teaching. Janet’s daughter, Stephanie, had acted out toward some of the other girls in the classroom, and I had made her stay in from breaks between classes. I was kind and fair when I punished her. The truth is that I really liked Stephanie, but she clearly didn’t like being disciplined. She told her mother, and Janet felt the need to defend her child. After school, she flew into my classroom and accused me of everything from being unfair to playing favorites to not caring about my students. She was yelling so loudly that every teacher in the building heard her accusations, including my principal. Her words shocked me because none of her criticisms was true. I managed to keep from crying while she stood in front of me, but as soon as she left the room, I broke down. I cried all evening on and off through that sleepless night. I had once felt such joy teaching my kids, but now I felt like I was under a microscope in my classroom. For the next few weeks, her words caused me to second-guess everything I did with my students. I doubted my ability and even my own heart. Despite how her mother had treated me, I knew I would discipline Stephanie again if she acted out. It was the right thing to do. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为 150左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 And now, two decades later, the angry mother was apologizing to me. ____________________________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________________________ __________________________________________________________________________________ “Can you find it in your heart to forgive me?” Janet asked finally. ____________________________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________________________ __________________________________________________________________________________
