The 22-year-old Liberian nursing student, in her final year, managed to save the members of her immediate family from the Ebola virus, all without the help and convenience of a hospital.‎ Kekula reduced the rate to 25 percent. Four of her family members were infected with the virus, her father, Moses, her mother, Victoria, her sister, Vivian and her 14-year-old cousin, Alfred ‎ Winnie. Sadly, Kekula’s cousin succumbed to the virus. It’s also impressive to note that while Kekula was treating her family members she managed to avoid Ebola entirely.‎ On July 27, Kekula’s father, Moses, went to a hospital in Kanata, after his blood pressure rose sharply. The only reason the hospital had a bed to offer him was because someone had just died. But the staff in the hospital didn’t realize the patient died from an Ebola infection. Shortly, after he was admitted to the hospital, Moses developed a fever, started vomiting and was suffering from diarrhea. Once nurses started dying of Ebola, the hospital shut down and Moses had to leave. Kekula drove 90 minutes to Monrovia, the capital of Liberia, to seek treatment. Three hospitals turned them away because there was no spare bed for patients at all.‎ Kekula made the drive back to Kanata to another hospital. They told Moses he had typhoid fever and did very little to treat him. So Kekula took him home. Once he was there, he infected three other family members, her mother, sister and their cousin who was living with them.‎ Kekula only lost one patient, her cousin. Her method proved so effective that international aid workers, including UNICEF, began teaching it to others in West Africa who may not be able to get to hospitals for treatment.‎ Her father, mother and sister were already recovering when space became available at the JFK Medical Center on August 17. Alfred passed away at the hospital the next day. Kekula’s father, Moses said, “I’m very, very proud. She saved my life through the almighty God.”‎ ‎21. What is the best title for the passage?‎ ‎ A. A courageous and selfless nurse ‎ B. Give her a medal: Woman saves family members from Ebola ‎ C. A family survived Ebola with the help of government ‎ D. The dreadful disease Ebola ‎22. What does the underlined word “succumbed to” in Paragraph 2 mean?‎ ‎ A. was affected with B. survived C. died of D. fight against ‎23. Why Kekula took her father home?‎ ‎ A. Because a patient died from an Ebola infection in the hospital in Kanata.‎ ‎ B. Because they were turned down by hospitals and little can be done to her father.‎ ‎ C. Because Moses were already recovering when he was admitted to the JFK Medical Center.‎ ‎ D. Because nurses started dying of Ebola and many hospitals were shut down.‎ B A good modern newspaper is an extraordinary piece of reading. It is remarkable first for what it contains: the range of news from local crime to international politics, from sport to business to fashion to science, and the range of comment and special features as well, from editorial page to feature articles and interviews to criticism of books, art, theatre and music. ‎ ‎ A newspaper is even more remarkable for the way one reads it: never completely, never straight through, but always by jumping from here to there, in and out glancing at one piece, reading another article all the way through, reading just a few paragraphs of the next. A good modern newspaper offers a variety to attract many different readers, but far more than any one reader is interested in. What brings this variety together in one place is its topicality (时事性), its immediate relation to what is happening in your world and your locality now. But immediacy and the speed of production that goes with it mean also that much of what appears in a newspaper has no more than transient(短暂的) value. ‎ For all these reasons, no two people really read the same paper: what each person does is to put together out of the pages of that day’s paper, his own selection and sequence, his own newspaper. For all these reasons, reading newspapers efficiently, which means getting what you want from them without missing things you need but without wasting time, demands skill and self-awareness as you modify and apply the techniques of reading.‎ ‎24. A modern newspaper is remarkable for all the following except its ______.‎ ‎ A. wide coverage ‎ B. long-lasting value ‎ C. speed in reporting news ‎ D. variety of articles ‎25. According to the passage, the reason why no two people really read the “same” newspaper is ‎ ‎ that ______.‎ ‎ A. people scan for the news they are interested in ‎ B. different people prefer different newspapers ‎ C. people are rarely interested in the same kind of news ‎ D. people have different views about what a good newspaper is ‎26. It can be concluded from the passage that newspaper readers______.‎ ‎ A. apply reading techniques skillfully ‎ B. jump from one newspaper to another ‎ C. appreciate the variety of a newspaper ‎ D. usually read a newspaper selectively ‎27. The best title for this passage would be “______”.‎ ‎ A. The importance of Newspaper Topicality ‎ B. The Characteristics of a Good Newspaper ‎ C. The Variety of a Good Newspaper ‎ D. Some Suggestions on How to Read a Newspaper ‎ C ‎ ‎ If you see a group of people dancing and singing on the street or in the railway station, you don’t need to feel surprised. They are a flash mob（快闪族）which is a group of people who come together suddenly in a public place, do something unusual for a brief period of time, and then quickly break up. They are usually organized with the help of the Internet or other digital communication networks. At a predetermined time, they gather and perform some distractions(消遣) such as exchanging books. Then, they quickly break up before the police can arrive. Using mobile phones, the flash mob can change its location if the first one has been replaced for any reason. ‎ ‎ Bill Wasik, senior editor of Harper’s Magazine , organized the first flash mob in Manhattan in May 2003 and the first successful flash mob came together on June 3, 2003—after the initial attempt at a flash mob was foiled at Macy’s department store. Wasik claimed that the activity was designed to make fun of hipsters(赶时髦的人), and call attention to the cultural atmosphere.‎ ‎ Flash mob gatherings can sometimes shock people. Such an activity might seem amusing and untrue, but it also might frighten people who are not aware of what is taking place. Undoubtedly, flash mobs can serve as good political tools in any direction. They also have economic potential, such as using flash mobs to advertise a product.‎ ‎ The flash mob is now becoming more and more popular. People use it to do many things. For example, in 2009, Michael Jackson’s fans took part in a flash mob to remember him. Hundreds of his fans gathered singing and dancing Michael’s famous song“Beat It”together. Flash mobs give people from all walks of life an opportunity to come together to create a memory.‎ ‎28. The underlined word“foiled”in Paragraph 2 can be replaced by“______”.‎ ‎ A. forgotten B. prevented C. announced D. confirmed ‎29. What can you learn about the flash mob from the passage?‎ ‎ A. The flash mob usually breaks up quickly for lacking enough time.‎ ‎ B. Once the place for the activity is determined, it can’t be changed.‎ ‎ C. The flash mob can be made use of in many fields just for fun.‎ ‎ D. It gives people the chance to come together to do something unusual.‎ ‎30. The main purpose of the passage is ______.‎ ‎ A. to entertain B. to encourage C. to inform D. to persuade ‎31. The writer’s attitude towards the flash mob is ______.‎ ‎ A. negative B. objective C. favorable D. doubtful ‎ D Amtrak (美国铁路客运公司)was experiencing a downswing in ridership (客运量)along the lines comprising its rail system. Of major concern to Amtrak and its advertising agency DDB Needham, were the long-distance western routes where ridership had been declining significantly. At one time, trains were the only practical way to cross the vast areas of the west. Trains were fast, very luxurious, and quite convenient compared to other forms of transportation existing at the time. However, times change and the automobile became America’s standard of convenience. Also, air travel had easily established itself as the fastest method of traveling great distances. Therefore, the task for DDB Needham was to encourage consumers to consider other aspects of train travel in order to change their attitudes and increase the likelihood that trains would be considered for travel in the west. Two portions of the total market were targeted:1)anxious fliers—those concerned with safety, relaxation, and cleanliness and 2)travel-lovers—those viewing themselves as relaxed, casual, and interested in the travel experience as part of their vacation. The agency then developed a campaign that focused on travel experiences such as freedom, escape, relaxation, and enjoyment of the great western outdoors. It stressed experiences gained by using the trains and portrayed western train trips as wonderful adventures. Advertisements showed pictures of the beautiful scenery that could be enjoyed along some of the more famous western routes and emphasized the romantic names of some of these trains (Empire Builder, etc.). These ads were strategically placed among family-oriented TV shows and programs involving nature and America in order to most effectively reach target audiences. Results were impressive. The Empire Builder, which was focused on in one ad, enjoyed a 15 percent increase in profits on its Chicago to Seattle route.‎ ‎32. What’s the author’s purpose in writing this passage? ‎ ‎ A. To show the inability of trains to compete with planes with respect to speed and convenience.‎ ‎ B. To stress the influence of the automobile on America’s standard of convenience.‎ ‎ C. To emphasize the function of travel agencies in market promotion.‎ ‎ D. To illustrate the important role of persuasive communication in changing consumer attitudes.‎ ‎33. It can be inferred from the passage that the drop in Amtrak ridership was due to the fact that ‎ ______.‎ ‎ A. trains were not suitable for short distance passenger transportation ‎ B. trains were not the fastest and most convenient form of transportation ‎ C. trains were not as fast and convenient as they used to be ‎ D. trains could not compete with planes in terms of luxury and convenience ‎34. To encourage consumers to travel by train, DDB Needham emphasized ______.‎ ‎ A. the freedom and convenience provided on trains ‎ B. the practical aspects of train travel ‎ C. the adventurous aspects of train trips ‎ D. the safety and cleanliness of train trips ‎35. The train ads were placed among family-oriented TV programs involving nature and America ‎ ‎ because ______.‎ ‎ A. they could focus on meaningful travel experiences ‎ B. they could increase the effectiveness of the TV programs ‎ C. their profits could be increased by some 15 percent ‎ D. most travel-lovers and nervous fliers were believed to be among the audiences 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。(注意：填涂时E=A+B; F=A+C; G=A+D)‎ IPads vs. Textbooks What if you could have your whole backpack at the touch of your fingertips? In the first month of the Apple iPads release, 25million were sold! People all over the world use iPads for all ‎ sorts of different things, but one of their finest qualities is the ability to be a textbook. 36.________‎ To begin with, iPads are less expensive. Textbooks become outdated and schools have to buy new books, but with an iPad schools can update them for free. 37.________ Schools don’t have to spend $ 500 every year for iPads because they last a while and can be updated.‎ ‎38.________ Students usually have multiple classes, which results in multiple textbooks. Heavy backpacks filled with books can cause back problems. A solution to that is an iPad, which only weighs 1.33 pounds and can hold all of a student’s textbooks.‎ Third, schools should get rid of their textbooks and get iPads because they have more capabilities. Some might think all of the apps are distracting, but the apps actually make iPads more efficient. 39.________ Textbooks cannot do those tasks, but iPads can easily do them with just a tap of the fingertip.‎ Lastly, iPads are a better choice for schools instead of textbooks because these devices allow students to access their learning anywhere at any time. 40.________ With iPads, they find it easier to get their homework done. ‎ In conclusion, schools should get rid of their clumsy textbooks and switch to iPads. IPads have allowed this generation to have their entire backpack in the palm of their hands.‎ A. These tablets are perfect for busy students.‎ B. Second, iPads cost less and are more popular.‎ C. Therefore, they can use the saved money for other programs.‎ D. IPads have already replaced textbooks in over 600 American cities.‎ E. Moreover, in high school, textbooks have an average of 4.8 pounds each.‎ F. Schools have every reason to do away with their school books and switch to iPads.‎ G.
