处的最佳选项, 并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

A

Robert Ballard was born in 1942. From an early age, he loved

the sea. Ballard grew up in Southern California. He spent his free

time at the beach near his home. He enjoyed fishing and

swimming. He even learned to dive.

When Ballard wasn’t at the ocean, he loved reading about it.

At age 10, he read 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea, a book which

describes the undersea adventures of Captain Nemo. Ballard

decided he wanted to be like Captain Nemo when he grew up. His

parents helped him follow his dream.

Ballard was a hardworking student. He spent many years

learning all he could about the ocean. By the age of 28, he was an

expert. In 1970, he took a job as a scientist at Woods Hole

Oceanographic Institute in Massachusetts. There he studied underwater mountains of the

Atlantic Ocean. He came up with ways to predict volcanoes under the oceans. Working with other

scientists, Ballard also found previously unknown sea animals. These animals lived far below the

ocean’s surface, where scientists had believed no animals could live.

By the 1980s, Ballard’s interests changed. He developed unmanned vehicles to explore the

ocean bottom. His first find, the well-known ship Titanic, made Ballard famous. He was not happy

with just one big find, however. He looked for — and found — other well-known ships. One was

the German battleship Bismarck. Another was the U.S.S. Yorktown, an aircraft carrier (航空母舰)

that sank during World War II.

Today Robert Ballard is still an underwater explorer. He also heads an organization that

encourages students to learn about science. Ballard hopes that some of the students will follow

in his footsteps. After all, the world’s huge oceans are mostly unknown. Who knows what

remains to be discovered under the sea?

56. What was Ballard’s dream when he was young?

A. To be a science teacher. B. To be a famous writer.

C. To be an animal expert. D. To be an underwater explorer.

57. When Ballard worked at Woods Hole Oceanographic Institute, he _____.

A. explored the undersea world by ship.

B. thought of ideas to predict underwater volcanoes

C. found some unknown sea animals alone

D. set up an organization to teach students science

58. Which is the correct order of the events mentioned in the text about Ballard?

a. He found the German battleship Bismarck.

b. He read a book about Captain Nemo.

c. He found the famous ship Titanic.

d. He became an expert in science.

A. b-c-d-a B. d-b-c-a C. b-d-c-a D. d-c-a-b

59. What can we learn from the text?

A. Ballard was greatly influenced by 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea.

B. Ballard didn’t like fishing and swimming in his childhood.

C. Ballard’s parents felt disappointed at his undersea adventures.

D. Human beings have explored more than half of the sea. B

March 21 has been declared World Sleep Day, a time to recognize and celebrate the value of

According to a 2013 poll (民意调查）by the National Sleep Foundation, nearly 4 in 5

Americans don’t get as much sleep as they should during the workweek. On average, adults are

thought to need at least eight hours of sleep a night, although some can manage with less and

some won’t do well without more. But the survey found that, on workdays, only 21% of

Americans actually get a full eight hours of sleep, and another 21% get less than six.

To many of us, the thought of spending more time sleeping is, well, a big yawn. On the other

hand, the thought of being smarter, thinner, healthier and more cheerful has a certain appeal.

And those are just a few of the advantages that can be ours if we consistently get enough sleep,

researchers say. Also on the plus side: We’re likely to have better skin, better memories, better

judgment, and, oh, yes, longer lives.

“When you lose even one hour of sleep for any reason, it influences your performance the

next day,” says Dr. Alon Avidan, director of the UCLA Sleep Disorders Center.

A study published last year found the same to be true even of children. When kids aged 8 to

12 slept for just one hour less for four nights, they didn’t function as well during the day.

But sleeping has an image problem. “We see napping or sleeping as lazy,” says Jennifer

Vriend, a clinical psychologist in Ottawa, Canada, and the leading author of the study with

children. “We put so much emphasis on diet, nutrition and exercise. Sleep is in the back seat.”

In fact, she adds, no matter how much we work out, no matter how well we eat, we can’t be in

top physical shape unless we also get plenty of sleep.

64. The underlined part in Paragraph 1 means _____.

A. To wake up the sleepers B. To draw people’s attention

C. To serve as a morning call D. To declare the special day

65. From Paragraph 3 we can infer that _______

A. Being healthier is one of the advantages for us ks5u

B. Sleeping has nothing to do with one’s expectations

C. Enough sleep is the guarantee of the appealing things

D. Spending more time on sleeping is a waste of timeks5u

66. What Jennifer Vriend said in the last paragraph implies that _______.

A. People care little about sleeping B. Sleeping is an image problem

C. Lazy people tend to sleep long D. Sleeping is only part of our life

67. What is the purpose of the passage?

A. To talk about people’s sleeping problems. B. To provide an investigation result of

sleeping.

C. To stress the function of sleeping at night. D. To arouse the awareness of enough

sleeping.

When I was having a walk through the park today，I met a friend I hadn’t seen for ages．She

stared at me curiously．“You have kept this umbrella for years; it's old and out of date．I wonder

why you keep it and take it wherever you go.” I smiled，“it means a great deal to me.” I simply

gave her my shortest answer．Honestly speaking，I，either，could not understand the reason why

I kept it．

Then all of a sudden，fallen leaves darkened my eyes with a strong wind．I grabbed the

umbrella instinctively．The rain poured down．Thanks to my umbrella，I didn’t get wet at all．

“Why have I kept it for so long?” I asked myself, staring at my umbrella．I couldn’t remember

when and where I bought it，for I’m always tired and lazy to answer questions．It could protect

me from the heavy rain，I told myself eventually．Looking at the people rushing through the

street，I felt safe．This might be another reason．

It is always so. We know comes unexpectedly and goes without a

warning．The sky cleared up．The sun shone brightly．Just as usual，I seized the umbrella with my

left hand．Still there’s water dropping down. I walked among the noisy crowd and listened to

what they were murmuring in their heart．“Today I will ask for a rise，or I'll leave this company.”

Good luck to you，I smiled to him．“I’ll manage to make you live forever.” A little boy held a pet

dog close to him．“She’ll be all right，because she is blessed.” I heard angels singing in this city.

The moment my fingertips touched the umbrella, I felt it’s dry，and it’s warm．Soon it

became hot．I held it up to avoid harmful sunshine．Do I need a reason to explain why? Maybe I

should think about it．I need my umbrella when it is sunny as well as when it is rainy．

68．Which of the following words best describes the author?

A．Watchful. B．Hard-working． C．Clever． D．Strange．

69．From the author's feelings with people among the noisy crowd，we can see that _______．

A．he is sensible enough to understand others’ murmur

B．he is sorry for people who can’t foresee their difficulty

C．he is warm-hearted even to care for unfamiliar people

D．he is kind enough to hope everyone will plan their life well

70．What can the underlined word “thunderstorms” be compared with in real life?

A．Bad feelings. B. Unexpected things. C．Confusing puzzles. D. Terrible

difficulties．

71. What’s the most suitable title for the passage?

A. Try to notice every passer-by.

C. Always be prepared. B. Umbrellas are important. D. Weather changes unexpectedly.

E

Edward Snowden’s removal of thousands of highly classified documents from the National

Security Agency and his decision to turn them over to journalists for publication started a fierce

debate about who and what he is. On one side are those who consider Snowden a whistleblower,

someone who has done his country a great service. Others regard him as a criminal.

Snowden, meanwhile, says that his “task’s already accomplished,” that he has given

Americans a “say in how they are governed” and that he has succeeded in exposing the workings

of what he has called the uncontrolled “surveillance (监控) state.”

But one must ask: Are Snowden’s actions in consistent with his words?

Snowden has taken sanctuary (庇护) in Russia, a country that, under the guidance of

President Vladimir Putin, a former Soviet KGB officer, has been sliding ever deeper back into

dictatorship (独裁). The Federal Security Service (FSB) has invested in technology that allows it to

monitor telephone and Internet communications and to collect and store not just metadata —

information about call destinations and lengths — but also the content of communications. The

Russian state uses that technology to engage in essentially unchecked surveillance of telephone

calls, e-mail traffic, blogs, and Web sites. Over the past two years “the Kremlin has transformed

Russia into a surveillance state — at a level that would have made the KGB envious.”

If Snowden’s objective is to give people a voice in how they are governed, and to expose

massive uncontrolled surveillance, he could speak out about practices of the Russian government

that go far beyond anything ever undertaken by the U.S. government.

For better or for worse, Snowden has a large number of supporters around the world. His

words are listened to by millions — so he could make a difference where it counts. Yet he has

been silent about the surveillance surrounding him. Why? Is he being polite to his hosts? Does he

have concerns about what the FSB might do in response to what he might say?

Whatever the answer, Snowden’s silence about the dictatorship where he has taken

sanctuary is telling. It is yet more evidence, if evidence were needed, that he is not a

whistleblower at all. It suggests that, instead of being a brave speaker of truths, he is a hypocrite

(伪君子), with principles that he applies selectively against the justice he has betrayed（背叛）.

72. What does the author want to tell the readers?

A. Snowden’s action started a heated debate.

Snowden is.

C. Snowden exposed secret documents. D. Snowden is in fact a hypocrite.

C. Sympathetic. D. 73. What is the author’s attitude towards Russia? A. Critical. B. Approving.

Grateful.

74. How does the author develop his argument?

A. By analysing Snowden’s statements.

B. By exposing Snowden’s link with FSB.

C. By comparing Snowden’s actions in US and Russia.

D. By questioning Snowden’s loyalty.

75. According to the author, Snowden is not a brave speaker of truth because he has _______.

B. It isn’t clear who and what

A. applied the wrong principles.

dictatorship.

C. taken sanctuary in Russia.

supporters. B. kept silent about Russia’s D. not responded to millions of his

So all the children are always expected to make full use of their time to study. They are not allowed to watch TV, play the computer games or go out to play with their friends .

Some students just complain that their parents are only concerned about their grades and not their other needs. They wish to have their own time to watch TV or surf the Internet. They also hope to chat or play with their friends.

In my opinion, our parents are responsible for us. Perhaps out of nothing but love, they are sometimes too strict with us. But I think we should learn to communicate with them, telling them that we’ll work harder and will never let them down. Only by doing this will we earn trust and respect from them. (153 words)

W: I just love it when the leaves of the trees change colors like this!

M: Yes, and it’s not as hot as it is in summer and not as cold as it is in winter.

Text 2

W: I can hardly hear the singer. Those fans are so crazy. They are so loud.

M: Aren’t you excited?

W: No! My brother dragged me here.

Text 3

W: Excuse me, but is it seven o’clock yet?

M: I’m sorry, but I don’t have a watch. Try the lady over there by the bar. She might know. Text 4

M: Phew!! Have you been smoking again? Your breath smells terrible.

W: Well, yes, I had a cigarette in the car on the way home.

M: You know how I feel about your smoking. Please go and clean up right now!

Text 5

W: I’m afraid I didn’t quite hear what you said.

M: I said, “There’s no rush, I can take you in the car.”

W: Won’t it make you late?

M: No. I’m going right past your place.

Text 6

M: Do you want to go to sleep, or do you want to stay up and watch a movie? I’m pretty tired, but

I’m always up for a horror movie. It is Halloween, after all…

W: I’d love to, but not tonight. I ate too much candy, and I’m so exhausted from trick-or-treating all

night with the boys from the neighborhood. I need to rest!

Text 7

W: Hi, Mark. How was your summer vacation?

M: I worked at a restaurant the whole vacation. It was an exciting experience and I also made

enough money for the next term. What did you do in your summer vacation?

W: I attended some classes because I fell behind the others last term. I wanted to catch up with

them.

M: You are great. So have you seen David?

W: He dropped out of school completely.

M: Really? Why? I haven’t seen him for several months.

W: He worked at a good company as an assistant and since he did well, they asked him if he

wanted to work full time.

M: Wow. He’s so lucky. He doesn’t have a degree and he already has a job.

W: It sounds good now, but I wouldn’t have done that. I want a degree.

Text 8

M: Mom, which day do you think would be the best day for a charity dinner party?

W: Well, when will the last examination be held?

M: Most of the exams finish this Friday. But there are some music exams that go on until the 23rd. W: I think you’d better wait until after that. When will this term end?

M: On January 26th.

W: Well, why don’t you have it on the Saturday after that?

M: Yes, that sounds like a good idea.

W: How many students do you think will attend the charity dinner party?

M: Oh, I think my roommates will all come.

W: You mean five other students will come?

M: Yes. Do you think I could ask Cousin Mark to make a video of the evening, mom?

W: Certainly. I think he would be delighted to do that. I’ll call and ask him whether he is free then. M: Thank you, mom.

Text 9

W: Oh, I think Jimmy is coming up next! Jeez, he looks so small out there.

M: He is going to need to do some serious praying if he wants to get a hit off that player. That kid is

only 12 years old, but he looks like he is already a professional baseball player!

W: Yeah… oh, no! Strike three on Marcus! That’s two outs.

M: We always seem to strike out against pitchers that throw really fast. We just can’t seem to be able

to get the bat on the ball. Maybe the coach isn’t working these kids hard enough in practice. W: Oh, I don’t know about that. I was a little early when I came to pick up Jimmy yesterday, and the

coach was throwing really hard to them in batting practice. I think he usually does a great job. We should really have him over for dinner./22

M: Yeah, let’s look at the calendar when we get home. Oh, look, there he is! Come on, son! Get a hit! W: Woo-hoo, let’s go, Jimmy!

M: Oh, strike one… that’s OK, big guy! Be patient up there!

W: You got this one… strike two… oh, honey, he was really late on that last one!

M: Keep your eye on it, Jimmy! You can do it! Just like we practiced…

W: Whoa! What a hit! It’s gone! It’s a home run! All right, Jimmy, way to go! Yee-haw!

M: That’s my son down there!

Text 10

M: Mary Lou Westin. It’s been a hundred years! I haven’t seen you since we were in high school. W: Randy? Randy Betford? Oh, my goodness, you look exactly the same! Even your hair is the

same… curls everywhere!

M: Well, you look… a lot different… But I mean that in a good way.

W: Well, I got tired of that blond hair, so I decided to become a redhead, and I’ve never looked

back! I also lost a lot of weight, and I’m really trying hard to keep it off. I don’t wanna look like I did in high school ever again!

M: So, do you live here? What do you do?

W: I’m a lawyer in Brookfield, the next town over. I just come out here on weekends to do my

shopping. What about you?

M: I sell insurance, but I’m actually working in Springfield. We’re looking to open a new office

here in Ovington, so that’s why I’m out here.

W: Do you like your job?

M: Well, I guess I make a nice living, but it’s really boring work. I wish I could just change

careers.

W: I agree. I actually have the opposite problem. I work for an environmental law firm, so the

work is exciting, and I feel like I’m really making a difference. The only problem is that the pay is quite low, so I’m basically living hand to mouth every month.

M: That sounds like a fair trade, though. I’d switch places with you in a second. Say, would you

like to have dinner with me tonight? I know a great seafood place.

W: That would be fantastic!
