Little Tom came back home, with tears in his eyes.‎ ‎“What's the matter, Tom? How's your trip?” his mother asked with a big smile. “I failed. The mountain is so high and full of big or small stones on the way. I still go ahead. But I was tired and it was so late that I had to come back.”Tom cried. “It doesn't matter, you are only 14 years old after all. You will have another chance.” his mother said. “But, standing at the top of the mountain is my dream!”Tom said. His father came over and asked, “Did you see the green trees on your way to the mountain?”“Sure, and there are a lot of beautiful flowers by the side of the road.” Tom replied. “Did you hear the birds singing?” his father asked. “There were many kinds of birds singing in the trees, and the sound was very sweet.” Tom said. “Did you feel the beauty of nature?” his father asked. “Yes, the blue sky, the white clouds, the green trees and the colorful flowers made a nice picture.” Tom answered. “That's enough!” his father smiled and said, “Please remember, son.‎ ‎ For often, achieving what you expect is not the most important thing. Although you didn't reach the top of the mountain, you got a lot on the way.”‎ It is true that not every goal will be achieved, not every job will end up with a success, and not every dream will come true. The most beautiful scenery is on the way.‎ 24. Why did Tom feel sad after the trip?‎ A. It was too late and nearly dark. ‎ B. He was too tired to continue his trip.‎ C.

Make Every Dream Come True C Monkeys seem to have a way with numbers.‎ A team of researchers trained three Rhesus monkeys to associate 26 clearly different symbols consisting of numbers and selective letters with 0-25 drops of water or juice as a reward. The researchers then tested how the monkeys combined—or added—the symbols to get the reward.‎ Here's how Harvard Medical School scientist Margaret Livingstone, who led the team, described the experiment: In their cages the monkeys were provided with touch screens. On one part of the screen, a symbol would appear, and on the other side two symbols inside a circle were shown. For example, the number 7 would flash on one side of the screen and the other end would have 9 and 8. If the monkeys touched the left side of the screen they would be rewarded with seven drops of water or juice; if they went for the circle, they would be rewarded with the sum of the numbers—17 in this example.‎ When the team examined the results of the experiment more closely, they noticed that the monkeys tended to underestimate(低估)a sum compared with a single symbol when the two were close in value—sometimes choosing, for example, a 13 over the sum of 8 and 6. The underestimation was systematic: When adding two numbers, the monkeys always paid attention to the larger of the two, and then added only a fraction(小部分)of the smaller number to it.‎ ‎"This indicates that there is a certain way quantity is represented in their brains, "Dr. Livingstone says. “But in this experiment what they're doing is paying more attention to the big number than the little one.”‎ 28. What did the researchers do to the monkeys before testing them?‎ A. They fed them. B. They named them.‎ C. They trained them. D. They measured them.‎ ‎29. How did the monkeys get their reward in the experiment?‎ A. By drawing a circle. B. By touching a screen.‎ C. By watching videos. D. By mixing two drinks.‎ ‎30. What did Livingstone's team find about the monkeys?‎ A. They could perform basic addition. B. They could understand simple words.‎ C. They could memorize numbers easily. D. They could hold their attention for long.‎ ‎31. In which section of a newspaper may this text appear?‎ A. Entertainment. B. Health. C. Education. D. Science.‎ D What will man be like in the future---in 5, 000 or even 50 000 years from now? We can only make guesses, of course, but we can be sure that he will be different from what he is today, for man is slowly changing all the time.‎ Let us take an obvious example. Man, even five hundred years ago, was shorter than he is today. Now, on average, men are about three inches taller. Five hundred years is relatively a short period of time, so we may assume that man will continue to grow taller. Again, in the modern world we use our brains a great deal. Even so, we still make use of only about 20% of the brain's capacity. As time goes on, however, we shall have to use our brains more and more, and eventually we shall need larger ones! This is likely to bring about a physical change to the head, in particular, the forehead will grow larger.‎ Nowadays our eyes are in use constantly. In fact, we use them so much that very often they become weaker and we have to wear glasses. But over a very long period of time it is likely that man' s eyes will grow stronger.‎ On the other hand. we tend to make less use of our arms and legs. These, as a result, are likely to grow weaker. At the same time. however, our fingers will grow more sensitive because they are used a great deal in modern life.‎ But what about hair? This will probably disappear from the body altogether in the course of time because it does not serve a useful purpose any longer. In the future, then, both sexes are likely to be bald.‎ Perhaps all these give the impression that in the future man will not be a very attractive creature to look at! This may well be true. All the same, In spite of all these changes, future man will still have a lot in common with us. He will still be a human being, with thoughts and emotions similar to our own.‎ ‎32. What does the passage mainly talk about?‎ A Man’s life will be different in the future.‎ B Future man will look quite different from us.‎ C. Man is growing taller and uglier as time passes.‎ D. Man's organs, functions will be useless in the future.‎ ‎33. What serves as the evidence that man is changing?‎ A Man has got stronger eyes now than he ever had.‎ B Man’s hair is getting thinner and thinner.‎ C. Man's arms and legs have become lighter and weaker.‎ D. Man has been growing taller over the past 500 years.‎ ‎34. Which of the following is TRUE about a human being in the future?‎ A. He is hairless because hair is no longer useful.‎ B. He has smaller eyes and wears better glasses.‎ C. He thinks and feels in quite different ways from us.‎ D His fingers grow weaker because he doesn’t have to use them.‎ ‎35. What can we infer from the passage?‎ A Human beings will become less attractive in the future.‎ B Less use of a bodily organ may lead to its degeneration(退化)‎ C. Human beings all hope for a change in the future life.‎ D. We are certain about our future life and appearance.‎ 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。‎ When everything goes wrong, always look at what you have, instead of what you have lost.  Because it’s not what the world takes away from you that counts; it’s what you do with what you have left. 36 ‎ Pain is part of growing.‎ Sometimes life closes doors because it’s time to move forward. 37 When times are tough, remind yourself that no pain comes without a purpose. Remember that there are two kinds of pain: pain that hurts and pain that changes you. When you roll with life, instead of resisting it, both kinds help you grow.‎ ‎ 38 ‎ ‎ Every time you get hurt, you heal. After darkness there is always light – you are reminded of this every morning, but still you often forget, and instead choose ‎ to believe that the night will last forever. It won’t. Nothing lasts forever.‎ Complaining changes nothing.‎ ‎ 39 It’s always better to attempt to do something great and fail than to attempt to do nothing and succeed. It’s not over if you’ve lost; it’s over when you do nothing but complain about it. If you believe in something, keep trying. Don’t let the shadows of the past darken the doorstep of your future.‎ The best thing you can do is to keep going.‎ Don’t be afraid to get back up----to try again, to love again, to live again, and to dream again. Don’t let a hard lesson harden your heart. Life’s best lessons are often learned at the worst times and from the worst mistakes. There will be times when it seems like everything that could possibly go wrong is going wrong. 40 A. Everything in life is temporary. B. And even if you fall short, keep going. C. Your scars are symbols of your strength.‎ D. Those who complain the most, accomplish the least. ‎ E. Here are a few tips to inspire you when you need it most.‎ F. That’s a good thing because we often won’t move unless life forces us to .‎ G. When you feel like quitting, remember that sometimes things can be right eventually.‎ 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A、B、C和D四个选项中,选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。‎ All of us can give others a hand as long as we are willing to do so. Actually, there are some people doing kind things all the time. Spreading kindness, one good deed at a time, is Karla Gibson’s mission. “I wish everyone could join me.

She sat at the end of the drive-through holding a 51 that read, “Have a great day.” She ended up 52 about 23 customers. “It was really fun. It was 53 one of the best birthdays ever.” she said. Her kindness that day didn’t go 54 . One couple was so grateful that they surprised her with flowers and balloons to show their 55 . Karla’s acts of kindness have become a 56 affair. Her two sons are always 57 others. “Sometimes I’ll ask Kyle, ‘So, did you do anything extra nice today?’ and his answers are like ‘Somebody 56 something in the hallway and I picked it up’ or ‘I held the door for someone’, that kind of thing,” said Karla. It’s because of Mom that the boys think it’s 59 to give a hand to others. “I think it’s a great idea of hers. It’s always nice to help someone out 60 they really need it,” said Karla’s 15-year-old son Chad. 41. A. good     B. bad         C. new       D. casual 42.
