One day，feeling very sad and lonely，she was walking through a grassland when she noticed a small butterfly caught in a thorn(荆棘)bush.The young girl carefully released the butterfly.Instead of flying away，the little butterfly changed into a beautiful fairy(仙女)．The young girl rubbed her eyes in disbelief. “For your wonderful kindness，” the good fairy said to the girl，“I will give you any wish you would like.” The little girl thought for a moment and then replied，“I want to be happy.” The fairy leaned toward her and whispered in her ear.Then the fairy disappeared. As the little girl grew up，there was no one in the land as happy as she.Everyone asked her the ‎ secret of happiness.She would only smile and answer，“The secret of my happiness is that I listened to a good fairy when I was a little girl.” When she was very old and on her deathbed，the neighbors all gathered around her，and feared that her unbelievable secret of happiness would die with her.“Tell us，please，” they begged，“Tell us what the good fairy said.” The lovely old woman simply smiled and said，“She told me that everyone，no matter how secure they seemed，no matter how old or young，how rich or poor，had need of me.” （21）______ the girl felt sad and lonely. A.There were many friends but B.There was nobody to love her so C.There was nothing to do so D.Seeing the butterfly was caught （22）Noticing the butterfly was caught by the thorn，the girl ______. A.helped the butterfly escaped from the thorn B.felt sorrow，but she didn't go up to help it C.fell down on it too D.failed to help it release from the thorn （23）The butterfly ______ after it was saved by the little girl.

A.to be rich B.to have her own parents C.to have a lot of friends D.happiness ‎ 2.（8分）      B.Ereading and ebooks are slowly conquering the world.Compared to traditional paper books，ebooks in some schools and universities attract more interest because the information flow seems much easier to manage and comes in a greatly higher quantity. Japan is known for the reformminded attitude towards the gadget(精巧装置)world and for the fact that it is one of the first countries that encouraged in the educational system the emailing of homework. The digital textbook looks like the logical step in the world of learning.It is natural but it is also completely untraditional. The plan of the largest publishing companies to get in line with the trend is to save a large quantity of paper and make the kids become interested in learning using a cool gadget.Many USA universities and colleges have made students be used to the procedure of downloading the courses and of course the procedure involves interactive software and also the chance of using the computer. The traditional education system is still unwilling when it comes to giving up books.The standard approach of information taught out of a book and Shakespeare read out of an old school novel makes studying English as traditional as it can be. In a world where kids would rather see the movie than read a book，the digital age has brought along a completely different flavor to reading.Bringing that flavor in school will make teaching a greener and also a completely different matter. （25）Why are ebooks so popular in the world? A.It's cheap to buy. B.It's effective to use. C.It's convenient to bring. D.It's the latest fashion. ‎ ‎（26）Which of the following words can best take the place of the word “reformminded” in the second paragraph? A.Oldfashioned. B.Aggressive. C.Rejecting. D.Progressive. （27）In America，the students are encouraged to______. A.apply the procedure of downloading the courses B.communicate with their teachers using computers C.research some interactive software for their studies D.do their homework in computer instead of in paper （28）What's the author's attitude to the digital textbooks? A.Being against. B.Being for. C.Not mentioned. D.Being neutral.‎ ‎3.(6分)As more Americans go to China to take jobs，more Chinese and Americans are working side by side. These crosscultural partnerships，while beneficial in many ways，are also highlighting tensions that expose differences in work experience，pay levels and communication. In the last few years，a growing number of Americans in their 20s and 30s have been heading to China for employment，attracted by its fastergrowing economy and lower jobless rate.Their Chinese coworkers are often around the same age.But the two groups were raised differently.The Americans have had more exposure to freemarket principles.“Young Americans were brought up in a commercial environment，” said Neng Zhao,28，a senior associate at Blue Oak Capital，a private firm based in Beijing.“We weren't.So the workplace is a unique learning process for my generation.” Managers hiring workers in China appear to be paying for Western experience.Foreigners tend to earn 10 to 15 percent more than their Chinese counterparts(persons working in similar positions)，said Michael Norman，senior vice president at Sibson Consulting，an American firm.That imbalance does not go unnoticed by Chinese workers.“There is definitely the belief that Americans get paid more for the same work，”said Ting Wang,25，an associate at Wild China，a travel company based in Beijing.On the other hand，Chinese workers have a deeper understanding of the influences，like，Confucianism and Communism，which play a part in their country's culture and economy. It is important and necessary for Americans working in China to adjust，said Mr.Norman，who works on management and work force issues for multinational companies operating in Asia. “In the West，there is such a bonus on getting things done quickly，but when you come to work in China，you need to work on listening and being more patient and understanding of local ways of doing business，”he said. （29）More Americans go to China to take jobs because______. A.they want to experience different cultures B.Chinese workers are easier to cooperate C.they can't find proper jobs in America D.the economy of China is developing rapidly （30）What is mainly talked about in the passage? A.Crosscultural conflicts. B.Crosscultural partnerships. C.Multinational companies in China. D.Different pays for the same work. （31）What does the underlined word “imbalance” in Paragraph 3 refer ‎ to? A.Unfair pay levels. B.Different working experience. C.Unequal opportunities. D.Different upbringing environments.‎ ‎4.（8分）Bissel is a small village of the West Sahara.It lies next to a 1.5squarekilometer oasis(绿洲)，from where three days and nights are generally required to go out of the desert.However，before Ken Levin discovered it in 1926，none of the Bissel villagers had ever walked out of the desert.Reportedly，they were not unwilling to leave this barren land.Many had previously tried but failed，always somehow finding themselves back at the oasis after several days of trying to walk out. When interviewed by Ken Levin，an expert at the British Royal College of Sciences，the villagers explained that no matter which direction they walked it always brought them back to the village. Why couldn't the Bissel villagers walk out of the desert？Levin was very puzzled.He had，by himself，managed to walk north from the village and reach the nearest town in three and a half days.He decided to carry out an experiment to solve the mystery.He and a Bissel villager called Argutel，would walk out of the desert together.They prepared enough water for a halfamonth journey and two camels.But this time Ken Levin didn't bring his compass.Levin would follow Argutel. Ten days later，they had walked for about 500 miles but were still in the desert.On the 11th morning，an oasis came into their view.They were back at Bissel.Levin now understood why the Bissel people couldn't escape the desert.They had no knowledge of the North Star，which had for centuries provided sailors and other travelers with a point of direction.In the desert，if a person goes forward relying only on their senses，they will not be able to travel in a straight line.Rather they will travel in a very large circle and eventually track back to where they began.Levin explained to Argutel the function of the North Star and said，“As long as you rest in the daytime and walk towards the brightest star at night，you would be able to walk out of the desert.”Argutel did as he was told.Three days later，he came to the edge of the desert. Now in the West Sahara，Bissel has become a bright pearl，where tens of thousands of tourists come every year.Argutel's bronze statue stands in the center of the town.On its base are the words：A new life starts from the fixed direction. （32）Villagers in Bissel had never walked beyond the desert because ______. A.they had no method to find their way out B.they were discouraged by their failures C.they had a fear of the outside world D.they had no desire to leave the oasis （33）Ken Levin asked Argutel to walk to the north in order to ______. A.see how far away Bissel was to the edge of the desert B.prove that people could walk out of the desert C.tell people not to walk in circle D.show Argutel was a great person （34）According to the passage，Ken Levin ______. A.knew Argutel before he came to the village B.came to Bissel to do experiments on behalf of his college C.became the first man to walk out of the desert from Bissel ‎ Village D.taught Bissel villagers knowledge of the North Star when he first arrived （35）It can be inferred from the passage that ______. A.Ken Levin didn't walk south because it would take more days B.the use of a compass was necessary to walk out of the desert C.tourism in Bissel has been greatly developed and improved D.Argutel became the leader of Bissel after his return 三、阅读填空(共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。‎ Kids' health：Four steps for fighting stress ‎ Everybody gets stressed from time to time.（36） Some ways of dealing with stress—like screaming or hitting someone—don't solve(解决)much.But other ways，like talking to someone you trust，can lead you to solving your problem or at least feeling better. Try taking these four steps the next time you are stressed： (1)Get support.When you need help，reach out to the people who care about you.Talk to a trusted adult，such as a parent or other relatives.（37） They might have had similar problems，such as dealing with a test，or the death of a beloved pet. (2)Don't take it out on yourself. Sometimes when kids are stressed and upset they take it out on themselves.Oh，dear，that's not a good idea.Remember that there are always people to help you.Don't take it out on yourself.（38） (3)Try to solve the problem. After you're calm and you have support from adults and friends，it's time to get down to business.（39） Even if you can't solve it all，you can solve a piece of it. (4)Be positive. Most stress is temporary(暂时的)．Remember stress does go away，especially when you figure out the problem and start working on solving it. These steps aren't magic，but they do work.And if you can stay positive as you make your way through a tough time，you'll help yourself feel better even faster.（40） A.Ask for a helping hand to get you through the tough situation. B.Notice your friends' feelings and find a way to help them. C.Different people feel stress in different ways. D.Ah，it feels so good when the stress is ‎ gone. E.You need to figure out what the problem is. F.And don't forget about your friends. G.Then，find a way to calm down.‎ 四、完形填空（30分）。‎ My sister and I grew up in a little village in England.Our father was a struggling __（41）__，but I always knew he was __（42）__.He never criticized us，but used __（43）__ to bring out our best.He''d say，“If you pour water on flowers，they flourish.If you don''t give them water，they die.”I __（44）__ as a child I said something __（45）__ about somebody，and my father said，“_（46）__ time you say something unpleasant about somebody else，it''s a reflection of you.”He explained that if I looked for the best __（47）__ people，I would get the best __（48）__.From then on I''ve always tried to __（49）__ the principle in my life and later in running my company.       Dad''s also always been very __（50）__.At 15，I started a magazine.It was __（51）__ a great deal of my time，and the headmaster of my school gave me a __（52）__：stay in school or leave to work on my magazine.       I decided to leave，and Dad tried to sway me from my decision，__（53）__ any good father would.When he realized I had made up my mind，he said，“Richard，when I was 23，my dad __（54）__ me to go into law.And I''ve __（55）__ regretted it.I wanted to be a biologist，__（56）__ I didn''t pursue(追求；寻求)my __（57）__.You know what you want.Go fulfill it.”       As __（58）__ turned out，my little publication went on to become Student，a national __（59）__for young people in the U．K.My wife and I have two children，and I''d like to think we are bringing them up in the same way Dad __（60）__ me. （41）A.biologist B.manager C.lawyer D.gardener （42）A.strict B.honest C.special D.learned （43）A.praise B.courage C.power D.warmth （44）A.think B.imagine C.remember D.guess （45）A.unnecessary B.unkind C.unimportant D.unusual （46）A.Another B.Some C.Any D.Other （47）A.on B.in C.at D.about （48）A.in case B.by turns C.by chance D.in return （49）A.revise B.set C.review D.follow （50）A.understanding B.experienced C.serious D.demanding （51）A.taking up B.making up C.picking up D.keeping up （52）A.suggestion B.decision C.notice D.choice （53）A.and B.as C.even if D.as if （54）A.helped B.allowed C.persuaded D.suggested （55）A.always B.never C.seldom D.almost （56）A.rather B.but C.for D.therefore （57）A.promise B.task C.belief D.dream （58）A.this B.he C.it D.that （59）A.newspaper B.magazine C.program D.project （60）A.controlled B.comforted C.reminded D.raise 卷Ⅱ（共60分）‎ 五、语法填空（15分）‎ ‎（15分）阅读下面短文, 根据上下文填入适当的词语, 或使用括号中的词语的适当形式填空, 并将答案填写在标号为1～10的相应位置。 1 is reported that the parents’ teaching style has an effect on the relationship between the children and their parents.

It 2. whose 3. lower 4. than 5. the 6. living 7. where 8. or 9. Found 10. their 六、单词拼写 ‎1.permission 2.obvious 3.glaring 4.patience 5.screaming ‎6.harmful 7.prevented 8.surrounded 9.slight 10.distance 七、短文改错答案：‎ 第一句：去掉about 第三句：before→ago 第四句：on→for/at 第五句：make前加to 第六句：去掉has或has→had 第七句：which→that 第八句：kept→keeping；thing→things 第九句：it→them 第十句：but→and 八、书面表达答案：‎ Dear_Wang_Gang， We_all_want_you_to_grow_up_happily_and_healthily，and_for_this_goal_you_had_better_do_several_things.
