These colorful and sweet jewels from British Columbia’s fields are little powerhouses of nutritional protection.‎ Of the common berries, strawberries are highest in vitamin C, although, because of their seeds, raspberries contain a little more protein(蛋白质), iron and zinc (not that fruits have much protein). Blueberries are particularly high in antioxidants (抗氧化物质). The yellow and orange stone fruits such as peaches are high in the carotenoids we turn into Vitamin A and which are antioxidants. As for cherries(樱桃), they are so delicious.Who cares? However, they are rich in Vitamin C.‎ When combined with berries or slices of other fruits, frozen bananas make an excellent base for thick, cooling fruits shakes and low fat “ice cream”. For this purpose, select ripe bananas for freezing as they are much sweeter. Remove the skin and place them in plastic bags or containers and freeze. If you like, a ‎ squeeze of fresh lemon juice on the bananas will prevent them turning brown. Frozen bananas will last several weeks, depending on their ripeness and the temperature of the freezer.‎ If you have a juicer, you can simply feed in frozen bananas and some berries or sliced fruit. Out comes a “Soft-serve” creamy dessert, to be eaten right away. This makes a fun activity for a children’s party; they love feeding the fruit and frozen bananas into the top of the machine and watching the ice cream come out below.‎ ‎24. What does the author seem to like about cherries?‎ A. They contain protein.         ‎ B. They are high in vitamin A.‎ C. They have a pleasant taste.        ‎ D. They are rich in antioxidants.‎ ‎25. Why is fresh lemon juice used in freezing bananas?‎ A. To make them smell better.        ‎ B. To keep their colour.‎ C. To speed up their ripening.        ‎ D. To improve their nutrition.‎ ‎26. What is “a juicer” in the last paragraph?‎ A. A dessert.   B. A drink.   C. A container.   D. A machine.‎ ‎27. From which is the text probably taken?‎ A. A biology textbook.          ‎ B. A health magazine.‎ C. A research paper.          ‎ C. A travel brochure.‎ C Mother, from my earlier memory, seemed quite different from Father. In those days he was a young-looking man. He did not hesitate to make friends with children as soon as they were able to talk to ‎ him and laugh at his stories. Mother was older than he was. She must have been a woman of nearly forty, but she seemed even older. She changed little for a long time, showing no indication of growing old until, towards the end of her life, she suddenly became an old lady.‎ I was always inquisitive about Mother’s age since I was very young. She never had birthdays like other people, nor did anyone else in our family. No candles were ever lit or cakes made or presents given in our house. To my friends in the street who talked delightfully about their birthday parties, I would repeat my mother’s words that such celebrations were only foolish. “Nothing but deception,” she would say. “As though life can be marked by birthdays, it’s deeds, not years, that matter.” Although I often repeated her words and even prided myself on not having birthdays, I once could not help asking Mother when she was born. “I was born. I’m alive as you can see, so what more do you want to know?” she replied, so sharply that I never asked her about her age again.‎ In so many other ways Mother was different. Whereas all the rest of the women I knew in the neighboring houses took pride in their housewifely abilities, their new furniture, the neat appearance of their homes, Mother regarded all those things as of little importance. Our house always looked as if we had just moved in or were about to move out. ‎ 28. What can we infer from Paragraph 1?‎ A. Father loved his children.‎ B. Father liked writing stories.‎ C. Father was a very young man. ‎ D. Father was a very different man.‎ ‎29. In most of her life, Mother .‎ A. looked quite young ‎ B. looked like an old lady C. looked younger than she was ‎ D. looked like a forty-year-old woman ‎30. What does the underline word “inquisitive” in Paragraph 2 probably mean?‎ A. Certain.    B. Curious.    C. Cautious. D. Confident.‎ ‎31. What do we learn about Mother?‎ A. She was lazy. B. She was strict. ‎ C. She was proud. D. She was special.‎ D WeChat, the Chinese social media smartphone app, saw an increase in user numbers of 41 percent year on year to 500 million at the end of last year, in a sign that parent company Tencent is extending its reach for the mobile Internet. As one of the largest Internet integrated service providers in China and one of the most Internet users in China, Tencent’s profit grew 24 percent to RMB 20.98 billion per year, slightly higher than forecasts, driven mainly by online gaming profits. It is unclear how much WeChat contributed to Tencent’s profits but the app’s growth is a strong indicator of the company’s long-term health as it tries to adjust its business to be more suitable for mobile devices. ‎ ‎“We extended our leadership in games and online media, and made breakthroughs in emerging platforms such as online security and mobile payments.” Ma Huateng, Tencent chairman, said in a statement. WeChat is the second highest ranked social app in China, behind QQ, Tencent’s another chatting app, which claimed to have 815 million registered monthly users at the end of 2014. ‎ Tencent has been unwilling to earn money through WeChat by flooding it with advertising, which could influence the users’ experience. But this is expected to change. Some analysts anticipated(预期) that advertising would be introduced on a large scale later this year. Early attempts to test ads on the service have not always gone smoothly. After a BMW ad was introduced on some users’ feedbacks in January, many users who were not targeted by the brand’s marketing complained of “discrimination” by Tencent’s data mining algorithm(数据挖掘算法). They claimed it unfairly treated them as not wealthy or successful enough to view the BMW ad. ‎ 32. What is the main driving force of the Tencent’s income growth?‎ A.QQ. B. WeChat. C. Online gaming. D. Advertisements.‎ ‎33. What can we learn from the passage?‎ A. WeChat is ranked behind QQ in China.‎ B. Tencent wants to earn more through QQ.‎ C. WeChat contributed most to Tencent’s profits.‎ D. More advertising would not be introduced later this year.‎ ‎34. How did some users feel when a BMW ad was introduced?‎ A. Uninterested. B. Untouched. C. Unhappy. D. Unlucky.‎ ‎35. What’s the best title of this passage?‎ A. WeChat, a Popular APP in China ‎ B. WeChat, a Smartphone APP in China ‎ C. WeChat, a Profitable APP of Tencent D. WeChat, a Nonprofit APP of Tencent 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。‎ How to learn English well All English learners want to improve their English, but as you know, it can be difficult！ 36 The four main areas for you are: speaking, listening, reading, and writing. Here are some ways to help you learn well.‎ Speaking Speak as much as possible! This is the best way to learn English. 37 The fastest way to learn English is to surround yourself with English speakers. Also, get into the habit of thinking in English. Don’t translate from your own language into English—it will slow you down. And it’s fun to sing in English, so learn some English songs and sing your heart out!‎ Listening Like speaking, it’s better for you to be in a totally English-speaking environment. It’s also good to watch TV shows, or movies in English. 38 But the more you listen, the more you’ll get. It’s good to listen to something over and over again. First, try to get the general meaning, and then, listen a second time for more in-depth information.‎ Reading Reading English is something you can do to help you learn in your own, outside of the classroom. Newspapers are good for higher-level students. So for lower levels, try reading children’s stories or books which have been especially written for English learners. 39 You should find something that you can learn well from.‎ Writing Try keeping a diary; write something in English in it every day, even if it’s very simple. 40 And the Internet is a great way to help you learn English. Try to make friends online, visit chat rooms, or post comments on blogs. These are all useful tools for you.‎ A. Make a plan for yourself.‎ B. For you, you need to work on all areas.‎ C. Choose easy stories and you can learn more.‎ D. The English news can be difficult for you at first.‎ E. Start with small sentences and make them longer.‎ F. There is nothing better than conversations to help you improve.‎ G. You won’t learn much if you choose a book that is too difficult or too easy.‎ 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。‎ I’d been proud that I’d never lost my cellphone until my husband Jack got a call one evening. ‎ ‎ We went to visit a friend in hospital last year.
