John Adams took office in 1797. Two major issues marked Adams’ presidency. The first involved America’s relations with France.
France helped America win its war for independence from Britain. The friendship formed during the war continued afterward when Thomas Jefferson served as Minister to Paris. Relations began to go bad as soon as he returned home. The man who replaced him openly supported the losing side in the French revolution. After the revolution succeeded, the new French government demanded that he leave. Most Federalists(聯(lián)邦主義者) didn’t want good relationships with France. They searched for any signs of insult(侮辱) and any excuse to declare war.
President Adams wanted to improve relations with France through negotiations (協(xié)商). Yet he said the United States would strengthen its defenses. One incident, especially, brought the two nations close to war. It’s known in American history books as the “ X, Y and Z Affair ”.
President Adams had appointed three ministers to negotiate with the French government. French officials kept these three men waiting for several weeks. While they waited, they had a visit from three Frenchmen---later called X,Y and Z. X,Y and Z told the Americans that France would sign an agreement if the United States did three things. It had to lend the French government twelve million dollars. It had to apologize for anti-French statements in a recent message from President Adams to the American Congress. And it had to pay the French foreign minister 250,000 dollars.
The American ministers were willing to pay. But they wanted to sign the agreement first. The French foreign minister refused. First the money, then the agreement. The Federalists finally had the excuse they were looking for. France had insulted the United States. The only answer was war.
24. Why did America and France have a good relationship at first?
A. Because Thomas Jefferson worked hard on it.
B. America supported the French revolution.
C. America and France often helped each other.
D. France helped America get away from Britain.
25.What happened to the three ministers when they arrived in France?
A. No one came to negotiate with them at first.
B. They were treated very nicely.
C. They were asked to apologize at once.
D. They were watched over by three men.
26. What was the excuse that the Federalists found?
A. France hurt the three ministers.
B. France looked down upon the United States.
C. France asked for too much money.
D. France was unwilling to sign the agreement.
27. What is the passage mainly about?
A. The relations between France and the US.
B. John Adams’ great achievement as President.
C. How the war between the US and France started.
D. How the friendship between the US and France started.
C
When Mark Levine, an English-language instructor at Beijing’s Minzu University of China, was first invited to attend a Chinese colleague’s wedding in Jiangsu province in 2017, his second year in China, the California native was ready to present a small decorative gift for the new couple as he used to do in the United States.
However, his gesture suddenly didn’t seem proper as he realized the Chinese at the ceremony had red envelopes filled with cash to present rather than a packed gift.
“It’s a little bit embarrassing when you present something that people didn’t expect to receive on certain occasions,” Levine, who used to be a social worker in the US, told China Daily recently.
“In the US, people do that as well but only for close relatives. People would normally give things as presents, while here in China red envelopes are more commonly welcomed.”
It was the first time the 66-year-old discovered the ceremony-including taboos(禁忌)-in gift giving. He was not alone, as the recent argument following a British minister’s visit to Taipei, Taiwan, revealed.
British Minister of State for Transport Bar oness Susan Kramer presented a watch in January to Ko Wen-je, mayor of Taipei, when she visited the city, immediately sparking headlines as she broke a long-held taboo in Chinese culture.
A clock or watch, or zhong in Mandarin, signifies “the end” in Chinese, and many associate it with death. Therefore, giving someone, especially an elder, a clock or watch implies “your time is up”.
Kramer later apologized for the gaffe(失禮), but Ko was also blamed for his “rude” response as he told reporters that he had no use for the watch and would sell it for cash.
However, some foreigners in China, such as Mark Dreyer, support Ko in this particular debate. “When I heard about the story, I felt embarrassed,” said Dreyer, a British citizen who has lived and worked in China since 2007. “After all, ‘don’t give clocks or watches to your hosts’ is on page 1 of most China travel guides. I’m embarrassed by the lack of respect shown by the British for not even reading about the customs ahead of time.”
28. What does the underlined word “that” in Paragraph3 refer to?
A. Presenting gifts. B. Giving cash.
C. Attending weddings. D. Receiving money.
29. How did the public view Ko’s response to the gift?
A. They considered it a smart move. B. They believed he had no other choice.
C. They saw it as a rudeness. D. They thought it proper.
30. What was Dreyer’s attitude to the British Minister’s gift?
A. Negative. B. Supportive. C. Positive. D. Doubtful.
31. What can we learn from the passage?
A. Presenting red envelopes is a bad custom in China.
B. British know nothing about Chinese customs.
C. Americans don’t expect to receive cashes as gifts.
D. Chinese don’t expect to receive clocks as gifts.
D
The function of education is to prepare children for life, so we ought to concentrate on teaching them really useful things. Here is what I think our schools should teach.
Courtesy(禮貌)—The sooner our young people learn this, the better. Politeness and consideration are the signs of civilization. In any case, a lot more can be accomplished by a smile and good manners than with a PhD(博士學(xué)位).
Managing Money—Like it or not, for most of us, our adult lives will be consumed by the struggle for this. Is borrowing on a credit card a good thing? How do you live within your means? No one should be expected to pick this up after leaving school (or worse, after getting a job). We have a responsibility to teach our young people this basic skill from the beginning.
Health—Kids should learn to take care of their bodies. They should know that if they eat junk food, they will become fat and unhealthy. They should be very clear about what happens to their bodies when they drink, smoke, or take drugs.
Society—The idea here is that all of us are part of something much bigger. We have rights and responsibilities. We ought to understand what they are, and why they are that way. We have to know a little bit of our immediate history and geography, because we need to have a context in which to relate to the people around us.
Are these subjects too “low-brow”? Perhaps. Don’t get me wrong: science and literature are important. There will always be a place in the world for quantum (量子) physicists and Shakespearean scholars. But our schools cannot be designed to enable the best and the brightest to excel(勝出). They must also equip the weakest among us to survive.
32. What would be the best title for the passage?
A. The Functions of Education B. Schooling for the Future
C. The Advantages of School Education D. Really Useful Schooling
33. What can we infer from this passage?
A. Courtesy is as important as academic (學(xué)業(yè)的)achievement.
B. Eating junk food is the most serious health problem at present.
C. The present school education attaches too much importance to textbooks.
D. Managing money will soon be included as a subject in the school.
34. What does the underlined word “low-brow” in the last paragraph probably mean?
A. not demanding much intelligence to be understood B. not important
C. not deserving much attention D. not practical
35. What point of view does the author hold?
A. It’s of little importance to learn history and geography.
B. Schools should meet the needs of both the best and the weakest.
C. Science and literature are the most important for school education.
D. students don’t have to know about rights and responsibilities.

Many students have to live with roommates while going to school or university. Having a roommate can be one of the best experiences, or easily one of the worst. 36
Follow these five tips to avoid the common mistakes that make good roommate relationships worse.
Talk things out. 37 If something happens, sit down with your roommates and have a face-to-face conversation.Complaining about your roommates behind their backs creates nothing but embarrassing situations and general unhappiness.
38 Some roommates become the best of friends, and some don’t. Don’t put pressure on yourself or your roommate to reach this level, especially when you first meet. Remember, you are trying to make a new friend, not scare your roommate away. And if your roommate doesn’t end up being your best friend，there is no need to worry about it.
Clean up after yourself.Or at least，keep your mess on your side. 39 But being considerate with where you put your own stuff will help you avoid the arguments.
Ask before you take.This applies to food，clothes，supplies and anything else that you don’t own. 40 Even if you both agree to share everything you should still ask.
A. Communication is of vital importance.
B. Don’t expect to be best friends.
C. Rooms can be really easy for a mess to pile up.
D. If you want to have a good relationship with your roommate，it all starts with you.
E. Show your roommate that you have respect for his or her belongings.
F. You don’t need to keep the room clean and organized all the time.
G. Not all roommates can become your best friends.

Last Sunday I had a wonderfully trip to the year of AD 3008. I was playing joyfully in the park while a little boy of my age called Jason came to me and invited me to his house. I found him wear light colorful clothes, which could change colours. He told you it was in AD 3008 on the earth. Then the driverless car landed before us and we fly to his house, which was like a castle floating in the air. When we sat down, a robot came in and asked that we would like to have for dinner. Only a few minute later, a rich dinner was served. With time passing by quickly, and we had to say goodbye to each other.
How I wish I could pay a visit Henry again in the future!

Dear Peter,
I am glad to know that you are interested in Confucius and Chinese culture. Confucius, the founder of Confucian School is considered as one of the greatest ancient educators and his ideas have a great effect on Chinese culture.
With an increasing number of foreigners wanting to learn Chinese culture, the Confucius Institutes have been set up in many foreign countries. Since I am a volunteer in the Confucius Institute in New York, I’d like to invite you to visit it at 8:00 am next Saturday, November 17. During our visit, we can attend some Chinese classes, after which we can take part in some activities , such as paper-cutting and Chinese calligraphy.
I sincerely hope that you will accept this invitation. I am looking forward to your early reply.
Yours truly,
Li Hua

Good afternoon, viewers. Thanks for tuning in to your local News Channel 5 in Tulsa, for the latest weather report around town! It’s Tuesday, April 9th, and I have some important weather news for you today. Later this evening, we will be getting some rain, which will increase throughout the night. (17) By morning, we will have a bad thunderstorm. So, when you go to work tomorrow, be sure to take your umbrella and rain boots! Let’s also look at the weather report for the week. The storm will not be passing for several days, until Sunday. (18) In fact, on Saturday, we may have a chance of a tornado. This could be serious, folks. Tornado activity is starting in Springfield and may move into Oklahoma City, (19) which means we’d be next. In case of a tornado, you should probably store up some basic supplies, like bottles of water and canned foods — just in case. (20) Thanks again for watching, folks, and tune in again soon for your most updated weather news in town!

Neither rain nor snow nor gloom of night can separate Tennessee postal carrier Mike Crenshaw from his 4-and-a-half-year-old friend Carter Lawson or keep them from their appointed rounds.
They really hit it off over the past nine months, when Carter started bringing his neighbourhood postman, known affectionately as “Mailman Mike”， some water and a snack. The mailman brought the preschooler candy in return. The two have teamed up every day for a few minutes of delivering mail and chatting with fellow residents.
While some kids dream of being Spiderman or Batman, Carter has a different hero in mind: Mailman. “Anyone could just be like ‘Go away, kid’， but Mike has really gone out of his way to talk with Carter，” said Cassie Lawson, Carter's mom. She even got her son a matching, a mini-sized postal service uniform so that he could look the part while walking the route with his buddy.
“Every letter carrier has stops he looks forward to and this is the one I look forward to every day，” said Mike. “He's the end of my day, and the best part of my day, not just because it's the end, but because he's such a cute little guy.”
Mike once invited Carter to the post office to see the inner workings of the mail industry. During his visit, Carter learned how mail was delivered and witnessed the thrilling process of sorting mail and more, which has fueled his dream of someday becoming a mailman, too.
The man and the little boy's connection isn't a surprise to Fredric Rolando, president of the National Association of Letter Carriers. In his opinion, kids respond to mailmen because letter carriers are a friendly part of the neighbourhood who bring something to their house every day and are someone they come to recognize and trust.
24.What would Mike and Carter do every day?
A.Enjoy the beautiful scenery of night.
B.Send letters and talk with neighbours.

A.mailmen play an important role in people's life
B.children are taught to be careful of strangers
C.mailmen are good at getting along with kids
D.kids should often come out to make new friends
27.What would be the best title for the text?
A.Hero Mailman Mike B.The Best Colleague
C.Little Boy's Big Dream D.An Unusual Friendship

Paperless office was first coined in 1975.Four decades later, we're still chasing(追逐) the paperless office dream. Take the financial(金融的) industry for example—it is one of the slower industries to hug digital transformation. Many financial institutions today still send out trade confirmations by mail. I can tell you from first-hand experience that going paperless is by no means impossible. The Centric Digital office is a paperless work environment where all the office operations go digital, which has amazed our business partners.
Actually, companies need to stress the benefits of a digital culture for communications. Going paperless can save time and money. You could say goodbye to costly repairs, office supply orders, wasted employee time and so on. Besides, forbidding paper in the office forces information to be 100% digital, where you can make endless amounts of backups(備份), which easily increase transparency(透明). Not to mention, top talents want to work for digital companies.
You might think the secret to a paperless company is purely technology. Well, not really. Thanks to products like iPads, smartphones and cloud services, the ability to go paperless is highly accessible. Yet, even with all this technology, companies continue to rely on paper. It's not because they don't have access to the technology, but because they're lacking the policies, organizational structure and a strong desire to change. In order to go paperless, companies need to change the way they think and operate. The decision needs to be made and carried out and everyone needs to work together to make it.
Yes, the paperless office has been a very long time in the making—but it no longer has to be. With numerous amounts of software, services, apps, and technology available today, the only thing we need to do is make the decision to go paperless and see it through.
28.The practice of going paperless in the financial industry is________.
A.encouraging B.disappointing
C.satisfying D.disgusting
29.A paperless company can ________.
A.raise staff salary
B.attract talented staff
C.promote product sales
D.increase time consumption
30.What actually prevents people from going paperless?
A.The equipment available.
B.Operational research.
C.The company policies.
D.Technological limitations.
31.The writer believes going paperless ________.
A.still needs a long time preparation
B.offers people a lot more chances
C.should be made to happen right now
D.brings convenience and trouble as well
D
More than four decades ago, British scientist Robert Edwards first witnessed the miracle of human life growing inside a test tube at his Cambridge lab. Since that ground-breaking moment, more than four million babies have been born through IVF(體外受精) and in 2010 his great contribution to science was finally recognized as he was awarded the Nobel Prize for Medicine.
The prize for Dr. Edwards, who was given a Daily Mirror Pride of Britain Award in 2008, includes a ￡900，000 cheque. The Nobel Assembly described IVF as “a milestone in modern medicine”.
With the help of fellow scientist Patrick Steptoe, the Manchester-born physiologist developed IVF — leading to the birth of the world's first test tube baby. Dr. Steptoe died 10 years later but their work has transformed fertility(生育) treatment and given hope to millions of couples.
It was a scientific breakthrough that changed the lives of millions of couples. They said, “His achievements have made it possible to treat infertility, a disease which makes humans unable to have a baby. This condition has been afflicting a large percentage of mankind, including more than 10% of all couples worldwide.”
Professor Edwards, who has 5 daughters and 11 grandchildren, began his research at Cambridge University in 1963, after receiving his PhD in 1955.He once said, “The most important thing in life is having a child. Nothing is more special than a child.” With the help of fellow scientist Patrick Steptoe, Prof. Edwards founded the Bourn Hall clinic in Cambridgeshire, which now treats more than 900 women a year. Each year, more than 30, 000 women in Britain now undergo IVF and 11，000 babies are born as a result of the treatment.
But his work attracted widespread criticism from some scientists and the Catholic Church who said it was “unethical and immoral”.
Martin Johnson, professor of reproductive(生殖的) sciences at the University of Cambridge, said the award was “long overdue”. He said, “We couldn't understand why the Nobel has come so late but he is delighted — this is the cherry on the cake for him.”
Professor Edwards was too ill to give interviews but a statement released by his family said he was “thrilled and delighted”.
32.What is Robert Edwards' contribution to science?
A.Challenging a disease which stops couples having a baby.
B.Seeing the wonder of the first tube baby growing.
C.Enabling millions of couples to live a better life.
D.Helping couples with infertility to have test tube babies.
33.What does the underlined word “afflicting” in Paragraph 4 most probably refer to?
A.Troubling. B.Developing.
C.Improving. D.Frightening.
34.It can be inferred from Paragraph 6 and Paragraph 7 that ________.
A.some people envied Professor Edwards for his being awarded
B.different opinions were voiced on Professor Edwards' work
C.Professor Edwards deserved the prize for his breakthrough
D.the prize was late because the finding was first considered immoral
35.What might be the best title for the passage?
A.Life Stories of Robert Edwards
B.Preparations for Having a Baby
C.Nobel Prize for IVF Expert Edwards
D.Treatment of Infertility in a Lab

39.B。根據(jù) The tuition fees vary from one university to another … afford the fees…可知，本段的主要內(nèi)容是關(guān)于大學(xué)財務(wù)方面的問題。
40.E。此段主要是說學(xué)習(xí)時間的問題，上一句提到“你的學(xué)習(xí)時間可能由你想要上的課程和大學(xué)級別決定”， 而E選項正是對此列舉的一個例子。
【語篇解讀】作者在文中提到了一位女性，年輕時，由于她的老師用了不當(dāng)?shù)慕虒W(xué)方法，使得她對科學(xué)永遠失去了興趣。通過這件事，警示我們教育的意義之重大。所以我們一定要關(guān)注教學(xué)方法，它是人們成功的關(guān)鍵。
41.C。由第二段倒數(shù)第二句以及后文幾次提到的science一詞，可知此處應(yīng)該為science course。
42.D。由本段后文他把一個壇子置于講臺，可知教授大踏步走進教室。
43.B。由本段后文wildly wrong guesses 可知此句是讓學(xué)生猜測。
44.D。本段前文講教授要求學(xué)生猜測豆子的數(shù)目，此句應(yīng)為教授聽完學(xué)生的回答。
45.C。本段前文講學(xué)生喊出錯誤答案，那么教授給出的就是正確答案了。
46.A。這里的主語you指的是當(dāng)時還是學(xué)生的那位女子以及同學(xué)們，所以應(yīng)為學(xué)習(xí)了(learn)重要的一課。
47.B。由前文學(xué)生們根據(jù)視覺判斷豆子的數(shù)目，結(jié)果錯了，可知此處應(yīng)該為教授教育學(xué)生在科學(xué)方面不要相信自己的感覺。
48.D。文章只提到教授和那位女子，既然能猜出教授心里怎么想的，當(dāng)然主語指的是那位女子。
49.C。文中說教授以為自己在引導(dǎo)學(xué)生們開始了航行，駛?cè)胛粗澜?，設(shè)空處翻譯為認(rèn)為、看待。空后還有關(guān)鍵詞as，構(gòu)成短語see somebody/something as，類似于regard…as。
50.A。這里用駛?cè)胛粗澜绲暮叫衼肀扔鲗χR領(lǐng)域的探索。A項為航行，B項為運動、活動，C項為變化，D項為猛沖，故選A。
51.B。第二段提到讓學(xué)生們看著壇子去猜測，結(jié)果猜錯了，所以這里invisible to the eye，應(yīng)該為肉眼看不見的。
52.D。第二段最后一句提到自己的感覺，而感覺是判斷事物的一種方法，所以根據(jù)教授的觀點，只有用科學(xué)的辦法才能準(zhǔn)確判斷事物。
53.A。這個十七歲的女孩并沒有接受甚至沒有聽懂教授的所授內(nèi)容，而B、C、D與文中的invitation搭配不符合文意。
54.B。前句提到十七歲的女孩，強調(diào)年齡小，所以此句表示小女孩才剛剛開始理解這個世界。
55.A。她認(rèn)為她的親身體驗就是真實的，這是小女孩的觀點。believe可用來指個人觀點。
56.D。A項為生長，B項為力氣，C項為信任、忠實，D項為事實、真理。此句翻譯為：小女孩認(rèn)為她的親身體驗就是真實的。
57.C。根據(jù)第二段可知教授認(rèn)為那是錯誤的。
58.B。這里指教授奪去了小女孩的認(rèn)知方法，而B 項tool有方法之意。
59.C。文中說教授的教學(xué)方法使得小女孩失去了對科學(xué)的興趣，所以小女孩感到悲觀和害怕。
60.A。最后一句說小女孩再也沒有走進科學(xué)，由此可知那個下午她放棄了這門課程。本題容易錯選D(缺課，沒上課)。
長難句：He saw himself, perhaps, as inviting his students to start an exciting voyage into an unknown world invisible to the eye, which can be discovered only through scientific methods.
翻譯：也許他認(rèn)為自己在引導(dǎo)學(xué)生們開始一次令人興奮的航行，這次航行將駛?cè)胍粋€對學(xué)生們來說未知的、肉眼看不見的世界，而這個世界只能通過科學(xué)的方法來找到。
解析：此句中副詞perhaps位于詞組之間，使得句型看起來復(fù)雜。see…as…看做……;名詞world后有形容詞短語invisible to the eye作后置定語，以及定語從句which can be discovered only through scientific methods, 增加了理解的難度。
61.disagreement 62.sensitive 63.are committed 64.to protect 65.throwing 66.told/having been told

It is important to deal with the rubbish in cities. Many citizens who unaware of the importance of protecting the environment throw away their rubbish in a way unfriendly to the environment. Rubbish must be treated properly. ThusOtherwise， it may cause a lot of problems. It may result in the air and water isbeing polluted. When people breathe and drink whichwhat has been polluted, wethey will get ill.
To our happiness, our city has begun to pay attention to the problems. As far as I know, some rubbish is sorted and sent to different factoryfactories. Rubbish, such as glass and old newspapers, areis recycled. Some harmful rubbish is sent to thea certain place and buried. Waste air is cleaned before it goes into the air. Waste water is treated before it is poured into rivers. To protect the environment, the government has passed laws to prevent people from throwing rubbish everywhere, our city much cleaner than before. As individuals, we should do our part to fight against illegal actions at anytime we find them.

Arriving in Sydney on his own from India, my husband, Rashid, stayed in a hotel for a short time while looking for a house for me and our children.
During the first week of his stay, he went out one day to do some shopping. He came back in the late afternoon to discover that his suitcase was gone. He was extremely worried as the suitcase had all his important papers, including his passport.
He reported the case to the police and then sat there, lost and lonely in a strange city, thinking of the terrible troubles of getting all the paperwork organized again from a distant country while trying to settle down in a new one.
Late in the evening, the phone rang. It was a stranger. He was trying to pronounce my husband’s name and was asking him a lot of questions. Then he said they had found a pile of papers in their trash can(垃圾桶)that had been left out on the footpath.
My husband rushed to their home to find a kind family holding all his papers and documents. Their young daughter had gone to the trash can and found a pile of unfamiliar papers. Her parents had carefully sorted them out, although they had found mainly foreign addresses on most of the documents. At last they had seen a half-written letter in the pile in which my husband had given his new telephone number to a friend.
That family not only restored the important documents to us that day but also restored our faith and trust in people. We still remember their kindness and often send a warm wish their way.
14. What did Rashid plan to do after his arrival in Sydney?
A. Go shopping. B. Find a house.
C. Join his family. D. Take a vacation.
15. The girl’s parents got Rashid’s phone number from_______.

Grown-ups are often surprised by how well they remember something they learned as children but have never practiced ever since. A man who has not had a chance to go swimming for years can still swim as well as ever when he gets back in the water. He can get on a bicycle after many years and still ride away. He can play catch and hit a ball as well as his son. A mother who has not thought about the words for years can teach her daughter the poem that begins “Twinkle, twinkle, little star” or remember the story of Cinderella or Goldilocks and the Three Bears.
One explanation is the law of overlearning, which can be stated as follows: Once we have learned something, additional learning trials(嘗試)increase the length of time we will remember it.
In childhood we usually continue to practice such skills as swimming, bicycle riding, and playing baseball long after we have learned them. We continue to listen to and remind ourselves of words such as “Twinkle, twinkle, little star” and childhood tales such as Cinderella and Goldilocks. We not only learn but overlearn.
The multiplication tables(乘法口訣表)are an exception to the general rule that we forget rather quickly the things that we learn in school, because they are another of the things we overlearn in childhood.
The law of overlearning explains why cramming(突擊學(xué)習(xí))for an examination, though it may result in a passing grade, is not a satisfactory way to learn a college course. By cramming, a student may learn the subject well enough to get by on the examination, but he is likely soon to forget almost everything he learned. A little overlearning, on the other hand, is really necessary for one’s future development.
18. What is the main idea of paragraph 1?
A. People remember well what they learned in childhood.
B. Children have a better memory than grown-ups.
C. Poem reading is a good way to learn words.
D. Stories for children arc easy to remember.
19. The author explains the law of overlearning by_________.
A. presenting research findings B. setting down general rules
C. making a comparison D. using examples
20. According to the author, being able to use multiplication tables is_______.
A. a result of overlearning B. a special case of cramming
C. a skill to deal with math problems D. a basic step towards advanced studies
21. What is the author’s opinion on cramming?
A. It leads to failure in college exams. B. It’s helpful only in a limited way.
C. It’s possible to result in poor memory. D. It increases students’ learning interest.

Why do Americans struggle with watching their weight, while the French, who consume rich food, continue to stay thin? Now a research by Cornell University suggests how life style and decisions about eating may affect weight. Researchers concluded that the French tend to stop eating when they feel full. However, Americans tend to stop when their plate is empty or their favorite TV show is over.
According to Dr. Joseph Mercola, a health expert, the French see eating as an important part of their life style. They enjoy food and therefore spend a fairly long time at the table, while Americans see eating as something to be squeezed between the other daily activities. Mercola believes Americans lose the ability to sense when they are actually full. So they keep eating long after the French would have stopped. In addition, he points out that Americans drive to huge supermarkets to buy canned and frozen foods for the week. The French, instead, tend to shop daily, walking to small shops and farmers’ markets where they have a choice of fresh fruits, vegetables, and eggs as well as high-quality meats for each meal.
After a visit to the United States, Mireille Guiliano, author of French Women Don’t Get Fat, decided to write about the importance of knowing when to stop rather than suggesting how to avoid food. Today she continues to stay slim and rarely goes to the gym.
In spite of all these differences, evidence shows that recent life style changes may be affecting French eating habits. Today the rate of obesity — or extreme overweight — among adults is only 6%. However, as American fast food gains acceptance and the young reject older traditions, the obesity rate among French children has reached 17% — and is growing.
22. In what way are the French different from Americans according to Dr. Joseph Mercola?
A. They go shopping at supermarkets more frequently.
B. They squeeze eating between the other daily activities.
C. They regard eating as a key part of their lifestyles.
D. They usually eat too much canned and frozen food.
23. This text is mainly about the relationship between _________.
A. Americans and the French B. life style and obesity
C. children and adults D. fast food and overweight
24. The text is mainly developed __________.
A. by contrast B. by space C. by process D. by classification
25. Where does this text probably come from?
A. A TV interview. B. A food advertisement.
C. A health report. D. A book review.

Joe is kind but overweight, who brings him much trouble. Once after class one classmate asked for him, “Why are you so fat?” We all stopped to stare at him, wondering how Joe would answer question.

第二節(jié)：寫作
Dear Mark,
I am writing to ask for an English editor of our school broadcasting station. I am qualified for the position for the following reasons. First, I have a good command of English communication skills and take great interest in journalism. Second, I was a part-time reporter in junior middle school, which developed my communication and interpersonal skills. In addition, my father is a professional editor, by whom I have been deeply influenced and from whom I have learned a lot.
I really hope I will be one of you. Looking forward to hearing from you soon.
Yours,
Li Hua

W: I really think if I can get my foot in the door at this company it will do wonders for my career. Do you think you can polish my interview materials?
M: Sure.
W: You know, I’ve researched the company and I think I’m perfect for the job but I’m just not sure how to get it.
M: Well, the most important thing is that you have to have confidence in the interview. Bosses look for people who are interested, enthusiastic and sure of themselves.
W: I know I have what it takes, but I’m worried that my work experience won’t be enough. Do you think I should lie about my experience?
M: No, you should always be honest about your weaknesses. However, by focusing on your strong points and keeping a positive attitude about your abilities, you can take the attention off your lack of experience.
Questions:
1. What does the woman want the man to do?
2. What does the man think is the most important in an interview?

November 11 is now the world’s largest online shopping day. On November 11, 2014, the country’s biggest online shopping company, Alibaba, had more than 35 million yuan in sales—a worldwide record for a single day.
Alibaba, which owns Taobao and Tmall, first set up the unofficial holiday five years ago. The company realized single people might find comfort and happiness in buying electronic equipment and other products online. Soon, just about everyone else did, too. Now November 11 has become the most important day in a year for shoppers, whether they are single or married.
At the same time, Chinese are also doing an increasing amount of shopping on their mobile phones, which is not surprising considering the increasing sales of smart phones. In the first hour of sales, from midnight to 1 am, Alibaba said 24 percent of the orders came from smart phones.
Chinese customers are expected to spend 290 million dollars in online shopping. Bain, a global consulting company, expects online shopping in China to grow at a rate of 32 percent from 2014 to 2014. “Chinese customers are bargain hunters, and that is what is driving the success of November 11,” said Serge Hoffmann, a partner at Bain in Hong Kong.
Questions:
3. How many orders came from smart phones in the first hour of sales that day?
4. What is Bain?

W: HI, Bob, is everything okay?
M: More or less. There is just one thing bothering me, though.
W: Oh? What’s that?
M: Well, I have some students studying for their master’s degree. One of them tried to give me a gift, which made me uneasy.
W: What gift?
M: It’s an Egyptian carpet. The student came to my home a week ago, yeah, last Saturday, and brought the carpet to show his thanks. Seeing what kind of gift it was, I was really uncomfortable. I mean it’s too expensive a gift for a student to give a professor, so I refused it.
W: You refused the gift? That’s terrible.
M: I know, but I really can’t accept such an expensive gift. I explained to him why, but he seemed really upset about it. I think he might have taken it the wrong way.
W: Perhaps. He probably thinks you considered the gift a bridge for a higher grade.
M: That’s what I am worried about. I do understand the respect attached with the gift and I am honored. But I think we need to have a talk to make sure we are on the same page.
Questions:
5. What made the man uneasy?
6. How did the student feel after the man explained to him?
(Text 4)
My mother told me I had been weak in hearing at the age of 5. Putting on hearing aids in the morning was just as normal as brushing my teeth. However, I never believed that it should limit my success in any way.
I have been looked down upon because of my hearing disability. My head teacher told my parents I belonged in a school for the deaf. My classmates told me something was wrong with my brain. People speak louder than usual when they see my hearing aids in my ears. However, my hearing disability has made me a stronger person. I have had to work harder and achieve better grades in school than other students in order to earn the respect of my teachers. In sports, I have had to run faster, hit harder, catch better and score more points to prove I’m not physically limited. I consider myself no different from anyone else. Through struggle I want to prove I am better than the average teenagers.
I truly believe I would not be the strong person I am today if I did not have my physical limitation and courage.
7. When did the speaker’s hearing disability happen?
8. Why has the speaker long been looked down?
9. What does the speaker want to prove?
10. What makes the speaker a strong person?
