三、阅读理解

Jane Austen was born in the English countryside more than 200 years ago. She lived a simple life. She seldom travelled. She never married and she died from illness when she was only 41.

However, people all over the world remember her. Why? It is because Jane Austen is the author of some of the best-loved novels in the English language. These novels include Emma, Pride and Prejudice, Sense and Sensibility and Persuasion.

Jane completed her last novel Persuasion in 1816, but it was not published until after her death. Persuasion is partly based on Jane’s naval brother.

Anne, the daughter of Sir Walter Elliot, falls in love with Captain Wentworth, a person of a lower social position. But she breaks off the engagement when persuaded by her friend Lady Russell that such a match is

unworthy. The breakup produces in Anne a deep and long-lasting regret. Eight years later, Wentworth returns from sea a rich and successful captain. He finds Anne’s family on the edge of financial ruin. Anne and the captain rediscover their love and get married.

Jane Austen once compared her writing to painting on a little bit of ivory(象牙), two inches square. Readers of Persuasion will see that neither her skill of delicate, ironic(讽刺的) observations on social custom, love, and marriage nor her ability to apply a sharp focus to English manners and morals has abandoned her in her final finished work.

Persuasion has produced three film adaptations: a 1995 version starring Amanda Root and Ciaran Hinds, a 2007 TV miniseries with Sally Hawkins and Rupert Penry-Jones, and a 1971 miniseries with Ann Firbank and Bryan Marshall.

People who are interested in Jane Austen can still visit many of the places she visited and lived. These places include the village of Steventon, although her family house is now gone. Many of the places Jane visited in Bath are still there. You can visit Jane Austen’s home in Chawton, where she did her best writing, and Winchester, where she died.

20.What is the theme of Persuasion?

A.Never regret what you’ve chosen.

B.True love lasts forever.

C.Be matched for marriage.

D.Love waits for no man.

21.Which of the following CANNOT describe Jane’s writing style?

A.Her application of symbolism.

B.Her delicate observations.

C.Her focus on manners and morals.

D.Her use of irony.

22.Which of the following about Jane Austen is TRUE?

A.Her family house is now in the village of Steventon.

B.Many of the places she visited in Bath are still available.

C.The latest film adaptation of Persuasion was produced in 1995.

D.Her last novel Persuasion is considered her most successful one.

23.The article mainly talks about _______.

A.Jane Austen’s unique writing style

B.the original residence of Jane Austen

C.Jane Austen’s last novel: Pers uasion

D.the popularity of Jane Austen’s novels

GETTING A GRANT

Who pays?

The local education authority (LEA) for the area in which the student is living.

Who can get this money?

Anyone who gets a place on a first degree course, although a student who has already

attended a course of advanced further education may not. Students must also have been resident in

the UK for at least three years, which can exclude some students from overseas.

SPECIAL CASES

If a student has worked before going to college?

the previous six years will get extra money – £155 a year if 26, increasing to a maximum of £615

at 29 or more.

If a student is handicapped?

LEAs will give up to £500 to help meet extra expenses – such as buying a tape recorder for a

blind student, extra heating or special food.

Banking?

Most of the big banks offer special services to students who open accounts (in the hope that

they will stay with the bank when they b ecome rich officials). A student won’t usually have to pay

The goings-on in the consulting room have become more transparent(透明的)recently. Thank goodness. We know more than the lines supplied by the movies in which the therapist knows all and gives wisdom to those who, sitting on a couch, consult with them. Therapists are interested in how the individual, the couple or the family experiences and understands their difficulties. That has to be a starting place. We can be of value if our first port of call is to listen, to gradually feel ourselves into the shoes of the other, to absorb the feelings that are being conveyed and to think and then to say some words.

The thinking and talking that I do inside the consulting room is at odds with many features of ordinary conversation. Not that it is mysterious, but it isn't concerned with traditional ways of sharing or identifying. The therapist makes patterns and theories, but they are also reflecting on the words that are spoken, how they are delivered and how the words, once spoken, affect the speaker and the therapist themselves.

Words can give voice to previously unknown feelings and thoughts. That’s why it’s called the talking cure. But just as words reveal so, too, can they obscure, and this gets us to the listening and feeling part of the therapy. Whatever and however the words are delivered, they will have an impact on me as a therapist. I might feel hopeless, I might feel energized, I might feel pushed away, I might feel demanded of, I might feel pulled to find solutions.

The influence of the other is what makes any relationship possible or impossible. A therapist is trained to reflect on how those who consult with them affect them. As I try to step into the shoes of the other and then out again, my effort is to hold both those experiences, plus an awareness of my ease or discomfort with what I encounter in the relationship.

Feelings are the bread and butter of our work in the consulting room. They inform or modify our ideas and they enable us to find an emotional bridge to what can so hurt for the people we are working with. Along with the more commonly thought-about theories and ideas we have about the psyche, they are an essential part of the

therapist's toolkit, certainly for me. The talking cure means talking, yes. It also means the therapist is listening, thinking and feeling.

27.In which way is the thinking and talking the writer does different from ordinary conversation?

A.It may not be understood by patients.

B.It is full of terms used by most therapists.

C.It is a good reflection of traditional talking.

D.It involves thinking about how people speak.

28.The word" obscure"(paragraph 3) is closest in meaning to________.

A.cancel B.clarify

C.confirm D.conceal

29.Which of the following is the writer most likely to agree with?

A.Patients' influence has been neglected by therapists for too long a time.

B.Therapists need to think from their own perspectives as well as patients'.

C.It is no easy job for therapists to realize how uncomfortable their patients are.

D.Therapists had better push away those negative emotions acquired from patients.

30.Which of the following might be the best title of the passage?

A.Awareness of feelings B.It’s good to talk—and listen

C.Theories that help therapists D.What is the point of being a therapist

四、书面表达

五、语法填空

My father was born in a small town in the United States. He wasn’t sure 32.he wanted from life, but something told him to get out and begin a new adventure. He began that adventure travelling to cities in the US, before going on to Australia, New Zealand, New Guinea and the Philippines. He took his wife and three daughters with him and went 33.the road took him.

It’s easy to feel lonely when you’re on the road. As my mother said repeatedly, “We made lots of new friends on our trip, most of 34.were mechanics, since we often spent hours in repair shops.” But that was better than sitting by the roadside while waiting for the engine 35.(cool) when it was 40℃outside.

36.(get) along sometimes seemed impossible. There were always a lot of arguments, especially among us back-seat passengers about who had to sit in the middle. 37.it was hard, we did learn a lot about forgiveness. When we were travelling in the Philippines, we drove to Quezon City one day. It 38.have been a one-hour drive but was nearly three, due to bad roads and worse traffic. “Did you put our suitcases in the car?” My father asked my mother as we arrived in Quezon City. From the back seat, we saw her slowly turn toward my father. “No,” she said, “I thought you did.” That was how a 7-hour car trip turned into a 16-hour car trip, which was mostly spent 39.silence. On occasions like that, we had to learn to let go of our anger because we 40.(stick) in a rolling box with the same people for the rest of the journey. Though I sometimes felt like opening the car door and pushing one of my sisters out, I kept my feelings to myself. This is why road trips were like mobile universities to us. We earned our degrees in how to get along with other people just by travelling in that old car. And if we were somehow given 41.second chance at life, we would do it all over again.

六、选词填空

inflation:n. 通货膨胀(反义词:deflation:通货紧缩)

yield to = give in to = surrender to ...

When people stop working, they need a retirement income. Some are lucky enough to have an

employer-provided 42.linked to their salary. Everyone else faces a difficult choice. Some keep their pension pot in cash and watch as it is eroded by inflation. Others use savings products with high fees and risk being hurt by a stock market downturn. A third option is an annuity, which 43. a lifelong income but vanishes at death, even if that is a week after retirement.

Lionel Martellini of EDHEC, a French business school, and Robert Merton of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (a Nobel laureate in economics) have come up with a(n) 44.. Workers would buy government 45.bonds while in employment; these would pay no interest until retirement. Over the next 20 years (the typical life expectancy on retirement) bond holders would receive payments 46.interest plus the return of the capital. These would be linked to inflation, or another measure such as 47.consumption. So a worker born in 970, say, would buy a bond that made payments from 2035 until 2055. Every 48.innovation needs an acronym, and these are called SeLFIES (Standard of Living Indexed, Forward-starting Income-only Securities).

They would act somewhat like annuities, though without protecting against the risk of living much longer than expected. One big 49.is that if holders die before the maturity date, the capital would be passed to their heirs. They could also be attractive to corporate pension funds and institutions such as sovereign-wealth funds. But if bond yields stay as low as they are now, workers will still need a big pension pot to be able to retire 50.. The median pension pot of an American aged 40-55 is $4,500. That will not generate much income, whatever 51.it buys.

One Dollar a Night in New York

When it comes to finding a place to stay for a night in New York, things don’t always come cheap.

However, artist Miao Jiaxin, a Shanghai native who moved to New York in 2006, is offering people the chance to stay in his apartment in Brooklyn. 52.

Guests can easily book Miao’s room on the Internet. Nevertheless, although they will be housed in his apartment, it appears to have more in common with a jail cell than a regular bedroom as a cage in the center of

the room is where guests will stay.

53.Guests must stay in the cage for three hours each morning. “From 9 a.m. to 12 p.m., you can’t access the Internet, and there are no electronic devices, books, radio, pens or craftwork. You can’t talk to anybody. You can’t do Yoga or any other exercises. And you can’t even sleep,” writes Miao. If you break any of those rules above, you will be fined 100 dollars.

Meanwhile, the cage is monitored and recorded by two cameras and the activity of guests is filmed for the whole time they stay in the cell.

54.They can enjoy great views of New York on the roof deck outside the room.

The room is inspired by the alienation (疏离感) Miao felt as a new immigrant—feelings he believes are universal. “It’s not for fun. It’s for an experience. 55.” said Mia o.

A.It’s too expensive for common people to afford.

B.Actually, Miao’s room is so popular that you have to book three months in advance.

C.It’s only one dollar a night.

D.Miao says that to live in his jail cell, people don’t have to be a criminal, but th ere are a number of rules that need to be followed.

E.More like a psychological New York City experience.

F.Despite the strict rules, guests are given a key to the cage to let themselves in and out as they please.

八、概要写作

56.

Directions: Read the following passage. Summarize in no more than 60 words the main idea of the passage and how it is illustrated. Use your own words as far as possible.

e-learning: Hazy past—better future?

How much of an effect does technology have on students’ learning? A significant one, it seems, according to experts. Currently available technologies, the most important of which are computers and the Internet, apparently provide a learning environment in which problem-solving and intellectual enquiry can flourish. The process of learning in the classroom may become significantly more effective as students can deal with information on the computer. Or so the theory goes. My own viewpoint is rather different, I’m afraid.

Computers have been around for two decades as part of school equipment. There are, of course, obstacles

like costs to overcome, but it’s just a matter of time and effort. This is because schools have done what every organisation does when it sees an innovation—it applies the innovation to its existing model, which adds cost but doesn’t transform the standard classroom. We have, during that period, spent over $60 billion on them, but in my

view they seem to have had little or no effect on learning in schools. Content is king and the mode of delivery is irrelevant. If a teacher makes the subject matter interesting, it does not matter what, if any, equipment is used.

However, change is on the horizon. I think student-centred learning will become the norm and transform education. Computers will pave the way for far more indepe ndent learning. Students who currently don’t have access to schools or teachers are now able to get online. They can study from home thanks to the fact that more learning programmes are being written for learners who are forced by their circumstances to be self-sufficient. This would prove especially beneficial in those areas of the world where quality education is limited or extremely expensive. Therefore, in a few years’ time we could have a completely different conversation about technology and its impact on learning.

27.推理判断题。根据第二段中The thinking and talking that I do inside the consulting room is at odds with many features of ordinary conversation. ---The therapist makes patterns and theories, but they are also reflecting on the words that are spoken, how they are delivered and how the words, once spoken, affect the speaker and the therapist themselves.“我在咨询室里进行的思考和交谈,与普通交谈的许多特点不一致。——治疗师创造模式和理论,但他们也在反思人们所说的话,以及这些话是如何传达的,以及这些话一旦说出,会如何影响说话者和治疗师自己。”可知,作者的思维和说话方式与普通谈话不同的是它包括思考人们如何说话。故选D。28.词义猜测题。根据第三段中Whatever and however the words are delivered, they will have an impact on me as a therapist.“无论这些话是怎么说的,它们都会对我这个治疗师产生影响。”可知,But just as words reveal so, too, can they obscure, and this gets us to the listening and feeling part of the therapy.“但是,正如文字所揭示的那样,它们也会变得模糊,这就把我们带到治疗的倾听和感受部分。”由此推知划线词的意思是“隐藏”。故选D。29.推理判断题。根据第四段中A therapist is trained to reflect on how those who consult with them affect them. As I try to step into the shoes of the other and then out again, my effort is to hold both those experiences, plus an awareness of my ease or discomfort with what I encounter in the relationship.“治疗师被训练去反思那些咨询他

们的人是如何影响他们的。当我试着设身处地为对方着想,然后再走出困境时,我的努力就是同时拥有这两种体验,并意识到自己在这段关系中遇到的轻松或不适。”可知作者认为“治疗师不仅要从病人的角度思考

问题,也要从他们自己的角度思考问题。”故选B。

30.主旨大意题。根据最后一段中The talking cure means talking, yes. It also means the therapist is listening, thinking and feeling.“谈话疗法意味着谈话,这也意味着治疗师在倾听、思考和感受。”由此可知文章讲述的是“说话和倾听都是好的治疗方法”。故选B。

Dear teachers and students,

First of all, please allow me to extend my cordial thanks for your inviting. I feel honoured to introduce to you my senior high school on behalf of it.

I am Wang Fang, a senior three student from Mingqi Senior High School. The three years spent there will be the most memorable and joyful time in my life and I bet you will completely gravitate towards it after my brief presentation.

Founded in 1925, Mingqi Senior High School is located in the north of the city, covering an area of 2,300 square metres. Upholding the motto of “People is the foundation of the country”,it attracts a large number of students every year. There are about 1,500 students and a faculty of 174 people in all. Entering the campus, you will be greeted with evergreen trees lining the main roads and colourful flowers alongside. It is one of the reasons why I applied for this school at that time.

While the campus is agreeable, what captures me most in the school is the relationship between the teachers and students. The third year of study is stressing, though, every time I feel pressured I can always get back on right track in no time thanks to my classmates and teachers. Last week, I did badly in a maths mock exam. I didn't feel upset. Instead, Pm motivated to strive for my dream school as my teachers inspired me and my classmates encouraged me in the first place.

My school may not be the best one but the memories about it make up the important part of my life. I hope you will spend the important three years in your life on such an amicable campus as well just like I have.

III. Reading Comprehension Section B Directions: Read the following three passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read. B Kettlebells do not hurt people. People do. A kettlebell will get your respect – the easy way or the hard way. Here is the easy way. 1. Get a medical clearance. Get clearance, especially from an orthopedist and a cardiologist. The latter is no joking matter, since kettlebell training can be extremely intense. 2. Always be aware of your surroundings. Find a training area with a non-slippery surface on which you are not afraid to drop a kettlebell. The area must be clear of objects you might trip over – including other kettlebells – or that you might hit with a kettlebell. There should be no people or animals in a radius where you could injure them. 3. Train barefoot or wear shoes with a flat, thin sole and room for the toes to spread. Training barefoot is superior for health and performance reasons. If you must wear shoes, wear Converse Chuck Taylors, Vibram Five Fingers, or similar shoes that have thin soles and do not pinch the toes together. You have sensory receptors on the bottoms of your feet that make you stronger and improve balance and coordination. Wearing traditional shoes diminishes the ability of these receptors to work properly, and therefore inhibits performance and can increase the risk of injury. Go native. 4. Never contest for space with a kettlebell. Do not try to save a rep that has gone wrong. Guide the kettlebell to fall harmlessly, and move out of the way if necessary. And remember, quick feet are happy feet. 5. Practice all safety measures at all times. Respect every kettlebell, even the lightest one. Always use perfect form picking up and setting down a kettlebell. The set is not over until the bell is safely parked.
