第一节（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分）

A

Being that I worked in a grocery store for 7 years, I know quite a bit about impulsive purchases. In fact, I helped (sadly to say) push certain products by placing them in a certain fashion. Through said experience, I tend to know some of the best ways to counter the impulsive nature of buying things that are unnecessary.

The following is a 3- point list to counter the need to buy something shoved in your face…

Don't bring the kids.

You wouldn't believe (or maybe you parents would) how much more junk parents buy for their kids that is completely impulsive. Working as a checker at a grocery store, I quickly learned that most of the time kids were with their parents, the parents would buy something else within 10 feet of the check stand.

Bring exact cash.

I like to use my debit card because I am able to track every penny better, but holding and letting go of cash is much tougher for me personally. So, if I am going through a tough time budgeting properly, I will bring the allotted (限定的)amount of cash to the place of business and only allow that to be used.

Ignore salesman.

If you are at a department store and someone asks if you need help, try to ignore their push as much as possible. Sure, if you know nothing about laptops, get their advice, but even then I suggest doing your research pre-shop. Salesman could care less what you want. It's all about what their quota or commission is. Ignore them.

21. Why does the author write the passage?

A. To talk about her own shopping experiences.

B. To give readers some advice about resisting buying unnecessary things.

C. To complain about some bad experiences.

D. To tell us she has the habit of buying things that are unnecessary.

22. Why does the author like to use debit card?

A. Because her debit card is convenient.

B. Because she has not much cash.

C. Because she can know where every her penny goes.

D. Because she has many debit cards.

23. Which statement about the passage is WRONG?

A. Parents always bring something else for their children.

B. The author will bring the exact cash to buy things when going through a tough

time.

C. Salesmen care much about what you want, so you can follow their advice.

D. The author worked in a grocery store for 7 years.

B

I grew up in Lakeland, Los Angeles．We all lived on my parents' farm．When I was 12,1 got a part-time job on a dairy farm, helping to milk cows．We milked 65 cows at 5 o'clock in the morning and again at 2 o'clock in the afternoon, seven days a week．One day before daylight, I complained to my father about having to go to milk those cows．My father said, "You know, boy, to work is a blessing．"

Going to college was a rare privilege （特权）for a kid from Lakeland．My father

told me if I picked something to study that I liked, I would always look forward to my work．But he also added, "Even having a job you hate is better than not having a job at all．" I wanted to be a farmer, but I joined the army to help pay for college．

In the late 1980s, during a visit to Bangladesh, I saw a woman with a baby on her back, breaking bricks with a hammer．I asked a Bangladesh officer why they weren't using a machine, which would have been a lot easier．He told me a machine would put that lady out of work．Breaking those bricks meant she would earn enough money to feed herself and her baby that day．Although that woman's job was bad, it was enough to keep a small family alive．It reminded me of my father's words: to work is a blessing．

I don't think I'll ever quit working．I'm retired from the army, but I'm still working to help people．I'm not going to stop．I believe in my father's words．I believe in the blessing of work．

Counterfeit ( 假的) medicines are a widespread problem in developing countries. Like other counterfeits, they look like real products. But counterfeit drugs may contain too little or none of the active ingredients of the real thing.

People do not get the medicine they need. And in some cases counterfeits cause death. Twenty children in Bangladesh died last year after being given acetaminophen(醋氨酚). The medications contained ingredients that looked, smelled and tasted like the real thing. The medicine was produced by a local drug company that used a dangerous substitute to save money.

The problem of counterfeit medicines is especially serious in Africa, Asia and Latin America. The W.H.O. estimates that up to thirty percent of medicines on sale in many of those countries are counterfeit. The problem is less widespread among industrialized countries. The W.H.O. says counterfeits make up less than one percent of the illegal drug market in countries like the United States, Canada, Japan, and New Zealand.

But the agency also says as much as fifty percent of the medicine sold on the

Internet is counterfeit.

Much is being done to fight counterfeit drugs. Several companies are developing ways to make counterfeits easier to identify. And there are existing methods, like a machine that can quickly identify chemicals in pills to confirm if the pills are real. Other ideas include things like special tracking codes for drug packages. People could send a text message with the code and get a message back, which proves that what they bought is listed in a database. Some drug makers and other companies put three-dimensional images called holograms (全息图)on their products as a security device.

28. Last year twenty children in Bangladesh died because of _____.

A. online medicines

B. unreal drugs

C. acetaminophen

D. unclean water

29. We can draw a conclusion from the passage that______.

A. it is very cheap and convenient to buy medicines online.

B. medicine companies don’t pay much at tention to counterfeit drugs.

C. more and more people will buy products online.

D. we had better not buy medicines online.

30. What is the main idea of the last paragraph?

A. It reveals the reasons why counterfeit drugs are widespread.

B. Some measures are being taken to fight counterfeit drugs.

C. Special tracking codes for drug packages are used to identify counterfeits.

D. It shows the danger of counterfeit drugs.

31. Which of the following country may have serious problems of counterfeit medicines?

A. Canada.

B. Japan.

C. New Zealand.

D. India.

Eleven-year-olds are to learn Shakespeare using the approaches taken by actors, and English teachers will be encouraged to let pupils walk around the classroom rather than read the plays while pupils are sitting at their desks.

Within the English curriculum(课程) you tend to look at a play text as a piece of literature rather than performance. But you can’t possibly understand Shakespeare’s language if you’re just reading it in your head. Shakespeare is difficult; it’s not a 21st century text. You have to use different ways to understand it.

The new teaching way focuses on how actors come to understand Shakespeare’s language. In fact actors have the same nervousness about Shakespeare’s language as young people in schools do. But in six to eight weeks they get to a place of complete confidence about the play. Pupils can do as well.

Exercises devised are to let children aged 11 to 14 imitate the methods of professional actors. Written and oral assessments developed alongside the lessons will show how well students have understood the texts.

In one task pupils will work on creating four key physical figures of king, warrior(勇士), lover and joker, finding which lines of their chosen character go with those features first and then acting them out. Through this they can examine how a character such as Macbeth can switch dramatically within one scene from soldier to kingly figure to trick planner. It’s really creative but you’re still getting a really wonderful model of understanding. It’s miles away from a “chalk and talk” method.

Educators think Shakespeare should be a central part of every young person’s education. Developing a love of Shakespeare at a young age often leads to a lifelong

passion for literatur e and helps to improve a child’s reading and writing.

32. How will young people learn Shakespeare?

A. Reading them aloud.

B. Reciting them.

C. Cooperating with actors.

D. Acting them out.

33. You cannot understand Shakespeare’s words easily becau se________.

A. they are pieces of literature

B. their expressions are different

C. ordinary people cannot understand them

D. they are performances

34. The underlined sentence “It’s miles away from a ‘chalk and talk’ method.” In Paragraph 5 means_____.

A. Chalk and talk are far away from each other

B. It is much better than the traditional way

C. Chalk and talk are quite different

D. By chalk and talk we can understand Shakespeare

35. What’s the best title of the reading passage?

A. The New Approach to Shakespeare

B. The Introduction to Shakespeare

C. How to act Shakespeare’s plays

D. Shakespeare’s works in the English curriculum

第二节：（共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分）

All children in the United States have to receive an education, but the law does not say they have to be educated at school. A number of parents prefer not to send their children to school. 71 There are about 300,000 home-schoolers in the United States today. Some parents prefer teaching their children at home because they do not believe that public schools teach the correct religious values; others believe they can provide a better educational experience for their children by teaching them at home.

72

David Guterson and his wife teach their three children at home. Guterson says that his children learn very differently from children in school. 73 For example, when there is heavy snowfall on a winter day, it may start a discussion or reading about climate, snow removal equipment, Alaska, polar bears, and winter tourism.

A spring evening when the family is out watching the stars is a good time to ask questions about satellites and the space program. 74

Home schooling is often more interesting than regular schools, but critics say that home-schoolers are outsiders who might be uncomfortable mixing with other people in adult life. 75 And most parents don’t have the time or the desire to teach their children at home, so schools will continue to be where most children get their formal education.

A. Learning starts with the child ren’s interests and questions.

B. Children who are educated at home are known as “home-schoolers”.

C. In some countries, however, children are educated by their parents.

D. Parents often give their time to help with classroom or after-school activities.

E. They also say that most parents are not well qualified to teach their children.

F. Interestingly, results show that home-schooled children quite often do better than average on national tests in reading and math.

G. If the Brazilian rain forests are on the TV news, it could be a perfect time to talk about how rain forests influence the climate, and how deserts are formed.

One year ago, I traveled 15,000 kilometers from Australia to the US. I am from a

beachside town in the 41 of Sydney, and thought there would be almost no 42 differences between my home country and my 43 . I was surprised at how wrong I was, and at 44 different the two countries could be.

The United States is 45 in almost every aspect. The buildings are gigantic (巨大的) and so are the people who 46 and work in them. At mealtimes, the portions (份额) often 47 to me to be big enough for three or four people. I once

48 a baked potato which turned out to be bigger than my head! This was a big

49 for me.

The longer I spent in the US, the more I started to 50 smaller differences like the culture of 51 in restaurants. In Australia we don’t tend to give a tip 52 the service has been really excellent. In the US you tip for 53 everything, even at the hairdresser. Waiters and shop assistants 54 to be given 15 percent of the bill, although in places 55 New York or Washington DC, a tip can be as much as 20 percent.

56 , I also became more wary (谨慎的) of believing the stereotypes (成见) I had heard at home as I traveled. Not all Americans are ignorant of geography, for example.

Despite this, certain stereotypes about places did seem to 57 true for me. There is an immense (强烈的) sense of speed in New York. Everyone 58 to and from, and very seldom takes time to 59 the moment. This is very different from the Australian lifestyle. Australians are laid back. Even in a major city like Sydney, we “Aussies” take time to “stop and smell the roses”---very different from our American counterparts.

Navigating (驾驭) the culture divide between Australia and the US was challenging at times. But I took up that 60 and learned a lot from it. It was an adventure.

41. A. heart B. city C. center D. suburbs

42. A. cultural B. commercial C. economic D. scientific

43. A. home town B. departure C. location D. destination

44. A. how B. why C. however D. where

45 A. big B. modern C. small D. fashionable

46. A. travel B. survive C. live D. serve

47. A. happened B. seemed C. proved D. managed

48. A. brought B. ordered C. designed D. fetched

49. A. laughter B. pleasure C. shock D. embarrassment

50. A. prefer B. notice C. tell D. appreciate

51. A. serving B. tipping C. donating D. toasting

52. A. unless B. if C. when D. since

53. A. rarely B. mostly C. almost D. hardly

54. A. try B. wait C. think D. expect

55. A. like B. along C. for D. in
