In work, I definitely was and continue to be. As a mom, I’m mostly a doer. However, my treatment for breast cancer made me realize I had not been a doer in the way I wanted to be – but that was about to change.‎ I have been afraid of flying since I worked in news and covered many plane crashes and had my own horrific experience. My family had never been to another continent together. Now that the chemo (化疗) was over, as a gift to myself, my kids and my mom, I took them all to London to celebrate life before beginning radiation every weekday for six weeks. ‎ This time I decided not to think too much about it. When you look in the mirror without hair, you do your best to get through your day as if it were a day before you discovered your lump (肿瘤). Then everything seems doable. So I just booked the trip.‎ Our flight on British Airways was my best ever. I don’t know if it was the size of the plane, the comfort of the seats, the TVs or the family friendliness that made the time fly by for me. On every flight, I say a quick hello to the pilot, which calms me. This time, the pilot took extra time to explain the maps and weather patterns and calmed me down. That certainly helped a bit, or was it possible that chemo cured this fear too?‎ Every day I planned a different adventure – everything from tours of Buckingham Palace and Windsor Castle to the original bus tour. They learned and loved every minute and shockingly, they didn’t complain.‎ I had wanted to do so for years. Life and work had gotten in the way, but we finally did it. I planned this incredible trip during chemo and will plan another. Sometimes, the best adventures come after surviving your greatest fears.‎ ‎21. The underlined word “it” in Paragraph 3 refers to _________.‎ A. her fear of flying B. her breast cancer C. the finished chemo D. the planned family trip ‎22. On the author’s family’s trip to London, _________.‎ A. the author overcame her fear of flying thanks to her family B. the kids were not so interested in the places they visited C. the family enjoyed themselves during different adventures D. the family didn’t visit many places because of the author’s health condition ‎23. The best title for the text would be __________.‎ A. Cancer Gets in the Way B. Surviving the Fear ‎ C. Living a Plain Life D. A Successful Doer as Mom B Research carried out last year stressed the growing challenge facing employers in terms of managing and supporting the UK’s ageing workforce.‎ Figures from the Office for National Statistics have suggested that the number of people aged 65 and over still working has reached 1.19 million---up 25,000 from a year ago. There were also ‎ now more people aged 50-74 in work than ever before. However, the overall trend was hiding the fact that 12% people are forced to stop working before reaching state pension age because of ill health or disability.‎ Nearly half a million (436,000) workers who are within five years of state pension age have had to leave work for medical reasons, with an apparent divide between the North (worse) and South (better). Those in the lowest-paid jobs, including cleaners, leisure industry workers and people doing heavy laboring jobs, were twice as likely to stop working before retirement age, because of sickness and disability than managers or professionals.‎ Within this, the needs of the “sandwich generation”---those juggling work with caring for elderly dependents as well as children---needed to be given greater priority (优先权) by employers, a white paper by insurer and healthcare provider concluded.‎ Its research argued that 66% of managers think the average age of retirement in their organization will increase in the next 5 to 10 years. Yet, 36% reported being unaware of anything their organization did to attract, keep and engage older staff. Fewer than a quarter (23%) of employees said they felt supported by their employer with their responsibilities for caring for a loved one.‎ This was perhaps unsurprising, given that only 28% of managers said their organization had formal policies and practices in place to support these employees, argues healthcare distribution director Chris Horlick.‎ ‎24. According to the passage, who is more likely to leave work before retirement age? ‎ A. Tom, a physician. B. Jason, a language teacher. ‎ C. Henry, a construction worker. D. Bill, a bank manager. ‎ ‎25. The present support from the employers can be best described as _________.‎ A. moving B. dissatisfying C. inspiring D. surprising ‎26. What is the main idea of the passage?‎ ‎ A. Old employees are well attended in the UK. ‎ ‎ B. Aging workforce should be well supported in the UK.‎ ‎ C. Employers show responsibilities for supporting their employees. ‎ ‎ D. UK employers are facing challenges in supporting aging workforce. ‎ C Filled with much housework, meals and childcare at home, many people feel that being at work sounds more like having a picnic. Even for those who have a happy family life, they feel actually more stressed at home than at work. ‎ Recently, a study carried out by the researchers at a university in the USA found lower levels of hormone（荷尔蒙） released in response to stress in a majority of subjects when they were at work compared to when they were at home. This was true for both men and women, and parents and people without children. ‎ Both men and women showed less stress at work. But women are more likely to report feeling happier there. Men were more likely to feel happier at home. Experts say there are other reasons why work is less stressful than home for many. “Paid work is more valued in society,” said Sarah Damaske, the lead researcher on the study, “Household work is boring and not particularly rewarding.”‎ We get better at our job with time and the increased competence means less stress and more rewards. Yet none of us, no matter how long we’ve been doing it, ever truly feels like an expert at parenting or even at marriage. ‎ The support and friendship of co-workers also offer stress relief. At home, meanwhile, stress spreads and increases quickly. “That’s the reason why most housewives wish they were the bread earners,” Dr. Damaske says. ‎ Much of the advice to families and couples includes the warning to “leave work stress at office” and even to change our mind-set from work to home, for example, a walk around the block. The recent findings, though, suggest our home life, not our attitude, might be due for some change. ‎ ‎27. According to Paragraph 1, many people feel that being at home _________.‎ A. is like having a picnic B. is an ideal way to manage stress C. offers greater relaxation than at work D. can bring more stress than in the workplace ‎28. According to Sarah Damaske, _________.‎ A. men feel happier at work than women ‎ ‎ B. parents without children tend to feel happier ‎ ‎ C. household work is not as rewarding as work on a job ‎ D. both men and women feel happier at home than at work ‎29. What can make people feel happy at work?‎ ‎ A. Recognition of the value of their work. ‎ B. A good management of their marriage.‎ C. Much competition among colleagues.‎ D. Forgetting the stress from family life.‎ ‎30. According to the recent findings, what should we change to solve the problem mentioned? ‎ ‎ A. Our attitude. B. Our home life.‎ ‎ C. Our mind-set. D. Our working style. ‎ 第二节（共5 个小题； 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。选许项中有两项为多余选项。‎ Common public speaking problems The use of “I feel”, “I think” and “maybe”‎ In the question-and-answer session of the speaking competition, many contestants began their answers with uncertain expressions like “I feel”, “I guess”, “I hear”, “maybe” and “perhaps”. These words show that the person is only speaking from his or her point of view. 31 . Work on keeping your answers brief and to the point. Also work on delivering them with calmness and confidence. Instead of the empty-sounding “I guess”, using facts, together with a clear conclusion based on those facts, is far more likely to be popular with an audience. 32 Don’t stick to the same tone. It can be boring. Try to mix it up. For example, when they spoke about their dreams, some sounded romantic. Others used humor. Very few used several ‎ different styles together. 33 , rather than just sticking with the same one. Irresponsible answers 34 . You’re responsible for your words. Even though you want to answer quickly, you don’t want to sound foolish. So you should think twice before you talk. Don’t be like the student who, when asked about his opinion on book piracy (盗版), started by saying he supported it. Talking around the topic rather than directly answering it You should focus on one point and give a clear solution. 35 . Is it asking you to discuss a certain topic or to present your own point of view? Use one or two arguments together and give a strong conclusion. Remember that judges are not judging you on whether they agree, but on your ability to say what you think clearly.‎ A. Try mixing more than one style B. Improving your communication skill C. Using only one speaking style D. It’s important to involve your audience E. Public speaking is different from personal conversations F. The key is to work out what question is being asked G. To the judges and audience, this lacks the support of facts and seems not to be reliable 第三部分 语言运用 （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，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。‎ I was standing in the checkout line behind a woman who looked to be in her 60s.

When I read the card, I felt a 54 glow of pleasure spread inside of me. Deeply touched, I came home and ordered my own box of “You Matter” cards and started 55 them.‎ ‎36.

But I don’t think I can learn it.”‎ ‎“Why not?” said Granny Bell.‎ ‎“The boys say that I can’t, and that I need not try,” said Tom in a sad tone.‎ ‎“Don’t mind what the boys say. Let them see that you can learn it,” said his friend.‎ ‎“But I don’t think I can,” said Tom; “it is so long, and some of the words are so hard. I know I need not try for the prize. But I should like to learn the poem as well as I can; for the boys laugh at me, and call me ‘Slow Tom.’”‎ ‎“Well, dear,” said Granny Bell, in a kind voice, “if you are slow, and can’t help it, try to be ‘slow and sure,’ as they say. Look at the snail （蜗牛）on the wall; how slow it is! And yet, if you watch it, you will see it will get to the top in time. So just try to learn a few lines each day, and you may gain the prize in the end. And when you feel like losing heart, think of the snail on the wall.”‎ When Granny Bell had said this, she went on her way.
