The official London residence for the Queen and her family has been in existence since 1837. Queen Elizabeth II took the throne in 1953.In the summer, the State Rooms in the palace are open to the public for tours. However, much of the Queen’s home is off limits.It is reported that the palace to be 15 times larger than the US President’s residence. The most expensive home in Europe at an estimated 1.5 billion includes 775 rooms.The Richest YouTube channel recently took viewers on a tour of the ultra-luxurious interior of one of the most famous residences in the world.The Grand StaircaseThe first thing visitors see when walking into the palace is a magnificent, red carpet lined staircase, added by Queen Victoria in 1898. Portraits of the royal family line the walls so visitors can view history as they make their way toward the State Rooms.The Regency Room (摄政厅)Fans have surely seen this green and gold room with tassel trim sofas, a desk and traditional fireplace. The famous room is often where the Queen’s official photos are taken and the annual Christmas broadcast is filmed.
    The 1844 RoomThis room is often used to greet special guests and world leaders. With marble columns and gold mirrors, perhaps most notable is the 1820 neoclassical desk against one wall and the blue and gold chairs on either side.Outside Of course, a visit to Buckingham Palace wouldn’t be complete without watching the changing of the guard, a tradition beginning in 1911. The Queen also welcomes more than 30, 000 visitors to her summer garden parties, located in the back of the palace. The gardens include 350 different types of wildflowers, 200 trees and a three-acre lake on more than 39 acres.One more top-secret feature of the palace-the series of tunnels underneath the property. One, reportedly even leads to the House of Parliament. Which of the following statement is true about the Queen’s palace? The Queen’s family hadn’t been living in the palace until 1953.         In the summer, the whole palace is open to visitors.There are 1844 rooms in the palace.The palace is thought to be the most expensive residence in Europe.22. Where would Queen often greet the world leaders? A. In the Grand Staircase.        B. In the Regency Room.C. In the 1844 Room.            D. In Queen’s garden.23. What can we learn from the passage? A. The Grand Staircase was built by Queen Elizabeth II.             B. The Regency Room is regarded as the most notable room in the palace.C. It’s a pity that visitors are forbidden to watch the changing of the guard.        D. Visitors might be inaccessible to the tunnels beneath the palace.BLa Serna High School teacher and football coach Ken LaVigne has spent more than 30 years instructing students, touching the hearts of hundreds of educators with his compassion (同情心) and patience. LaVigne has documented his experiences in “Coach the Soul”, an inspirational book that tells heartbreaking stories of the struggle and success of students on the program he created, Organized Academic Support in School(OASIS).Launched in 2007, OASIS pairs students who are in danger of dropping out of high school with high-achieving peer (同龄人) instructors who provide daily motivation and emotional and academic (学业上的) support, helping them regain their joy of learning.“When I started in the OASIS program, I had a 1.3 GPA(Grade Point Average) and I really didn’t understand why I came to school,” Jastin Cheadle said. “Mr. LaVigne explained why school is so important and showed us that if we want all these things in life we need to work for them.” Cheadle now has a 3.5 GPA and is an OASIS instructor. He plans to study marketing or business in college.“When students come into the program, they are not in a good place,” said Jocelyn Jasso, who joined OASIS with a 1.55 GPA last year and had no plans to go to college. “Five to six months later, they are doing so much better because of Mr. Lavigue and our instructors, who always push us to do better.” Jasso has a 2.83 GPA and plans to pursue a career in the medical field in the future.LaVigne is able to connect with these students because he admittedly was also not the most motivated student in school himself. “Working with at-risk students reminds me of my own youth and the times that I came so close to going down the wrong path,” LaVigne said. “What saved me were the teachers who gave me an identity and a reason to try. I am who I am today because of them.”What is the book “Coach the Soul” mainly about?A. LaVigne’s teaching experience.    B. La Serna High School’s history.C. Stories of students’ personal growth. D. Stories between students and teachers.25. What can be learnt about the OASIS program?A. Its sponsors are educators.  B. It was organized by students’ union.C. It aims to equip students with job skills.   D. Its instructors are high school students.26. What do Cheadle and Jasso have in common?A. They come from poor families.    B. They help LaVigne run OASIS.C. They have made academic progress.D. They will pursue a career in medicine.27. Who had a life-changing influence on LaVigne?A. His family.   B. His students.   C. His teachers.   D. His colleagues.CThere have been sightings of strange things in the sky since ancient times, but it was only in the middle of the 20th century that they acquired the name “unidentified flying object”, or UFO. During the 1940s and 1950s, there was a huge increase in sightings around the world. The timing of this first great UFO wave was significant, coming at a period of widespread public paranoia (妄想症) caused by the nuclear arms race. The most common theory then was that UFOs were advanced military aircraft that had been developed in total secrecy.Within a few decades, public views changed, thanks in part to Hollywood. Suddenly UFOs were no longer assumed to originate from Earth, but from another planet. Since then, the situation has been complicated by evidence for extraterrestrial (地球以外的) visitation, from rumours that governments are hiding information about their dealings with UFO occupants to apparent memories of alien abduction (绑架) recalled under hypnosis (催眠).In fact, in official circles, “unidentified flying object” means just that: an airborne object that hasn’t been identified. To many ordinary people, however, UFO means “alien spacecraft”. For this reason, the US military has started using the term UAP for unidentified aerial phenomena, to avoid appearing to talk about extraterrestrials every time they say they’ve seen something they can’t explain. And UAP has another advantage, because UFOs may not always be literal “flying objects”. Some may be people’s imagination, unusual weather effects or even astronomical bodies. Therefore “aerial phenomena” is a much more appropriate term in these cases.UFO and UAP do have one letter in common, and that’s U, for unidentified. But it’s important not to read too much into this. It doesn’t automatically mean that what’s been spotted came from another planet, or went against the known laws of physics. Electronic systems such as radar are designed to pick up particular types of known objects. Anything falling outside the expected parameters (参数) is likely to be classed as “unidentified”. A number of UFO reports remain unexplained -but not necessarily extraterrestrial-even after careful investigation. 28. What did the public usually relate UFOs to in the mid-1900s?A.Psychological disorders.       B.Hollywood science fiction.C.Creatures from other planets.    D.Aircraft developed by the army.29. Which of the following words can best describe the evidence for extraterrestrialvisitation?A.Fresh.    B.Unreliable.    C.Striking.    D.Insufficient.30. Why has the US military replaced the term UFO with UAP?A.To avoid misunderstandings.B.To stress the rule of scientific study.C.To narrow the extent of UFO’s meaning.D.To highlight UFO’s distinguishing features.31. What is the author’s purpose in writing the last paragraph?A. To illustrate how electronic systems detect UAP.B.To encourage people to help explain UFO reports.C.To give explanations for the meaning of “unidentified”.D.To call on people to stop voicing unnecessary concerns.DMore than half the world’s population live in cities, and by 2050 the UN expects that proportion to reach 68%. This means more homes, roads and other infrastructure. In India alone, a city the size of Chicago will have to be developed every year to meet demand for housing. Such a construction increase is a bad sign for dealing with climate change, because making steel and concrete, two of the most common building materials, generates around 8% of the world’s CO2 emissions (排放). If cities are to expand and become greener at the same time, they will have to be made from something else.Wood is one of the most promising sustainable (可持续的) alternatives to steel and concrete. It is not, however, everyday wood that is attracting the interest of architects. Rather, it is a material called engineered timber. This is a combination of different layers, each designed to meet the requirements of specific parts such as floors, panels and beams (横梁). Designers can use it to provide levels of strength like steel, in a product that is up to 80% lighter. In addition, engineered timber is usually made into large sections in a factory for future use, which reduces the number of deliveries to a construction site.According to Michael Ramage of the University of Cambridge, a wooden building produces 75% less CO2 than a steel and concrete one of the same size. However, if building with wood takes off, it does raise concern about there being enough trees to go round. But with sustainably managed forests that should not be a problem, says Dr Ramage. A family-sized apartment requires about 30 cubic metres of timber, and he estimates Europe’s sustainable forests alone grow that amount every seven seconds. Nor is fire a risk, for engineered timber does not burn easily. Besides, fireproofing layers can be added to the timber. All in all, then, it looks as if wood as a building material may get a new lease of life.32. Why is India mentioned in paragraph 1?A. To point out the severe pollution.B. To predict the population increase.C. To indicate the high degree of urbanization.D. To show the great need for building materials.33. What can be learned about engineered timber?A. It is produced at a low cost.B. It hardly attracts architects.C. It helps save energy in transportation.D. It possesses greater strength than steel.34. What does the underlined phrase “takes off” in the last paragraph mean ?A. Becomes cheaper.            B. Gains popularity.C. Requires less work.           D. Proves sustainable.35. What can be a suitable title for the text?A. Making Future Cities More AttractiveB. Living in a World with Less EmissionC. Building Sustainable Cities with WoodsD. Growing More Trees for Future Building第二节  (共5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。选项中有两项为多余选项。Seven of the world’s 15 most aid-dependent countries are islands in the Pacific.     36   . But now the changing weather patterns are another factor that could make low-lying islands unfit for human beings to live long before most of them disappear.Many of the ring-shaped coral islands have been able to adapt to sea-level rise, changing shape as sediment (沉积物) decreases and waves push them around. But the natural adaptation of coastal ecosystems may be only temporary: faster rates of sea-level rise, stronger waves and a growing human population may lower their ability to adapt.     37    .Another risk more urgent comes from even small rises in the sea level. These can cause extremely high tides to briefly but entirely cover the narrow parts of low-lying land.     38   . The saltwater can kill crops such as banana and gets into groundwater, making it unfit to drink. The companies that changing salty water into fresh water are pricey and, like all machines, can fail. “    39   ,” says Michael Walsh, a former economic adviser to Kiribati. “But people of these islands may well die of thirst.”    40    . “How to prepare to move a nation in dignity, that has never been done before,” says Kamal Amakrane, a migration expert. “This is happening,” Mr Amakrane warns, “We have 10-15 years to prepare for it.”A. It is importantB. That is one riskC. The islands are not drowningD. Such “king tides” are becoming more frequentE. The depressing long-term solution may be to move F. Tales of sinking islands have been going on for yearsG. People can ask for help from the international organizations第三部分　语言知识运用 (共两节，满分45分)第一节 完型填空 (共20小题；每小题1.5分，满分30分)阅读下面的短文，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。Have you ever rushed to some place very important only to realize you’re on the  41  bus and you’ll never make it in time?
