The Central Library in Seattle is modern and fashionable and has tourists from around the world paying visits and taking tours. It was designed by Dutch architect Rem Koolhaas and American designer Joshua Ramus．Tours began in 2006，two years after its opening.

You may know the English letters A, B and C. But do you know there are people called ABCs? Do you know there is such a thing as “a banana person”? How strange! ABC means American-born Chinese. An ABC is a Chinese, but was born in the United States. Sometimes, people call an ABC a “banana person”. A banana is yellow outside. So, when a person is a “banana”, he or she is white inside-thinking like a Westerner and yellow outside-looking like a Chinese.
Usually, ABCs know little about China or the Chinese language. Some of them don’t speak Chinese. But if ABCs cannot speak Chinese, can we still call them Chinese people? Yes, of course. They are overseas (海外的)Chinese. These people may be citizens (公民)of another country like the US, Canada or Singapore. But they have Chinese blood. Their parents, grandparents or even great-grandparents were from China. They all have black eyes and black hair.
But they are not Chinese citizens. They are people of the People’s Republic of China. For example, we all know the famous scientist C. N. Yang(杨振宁). He got the Nobel Prize for Physics in 1957. Chinese people love him. But he is an American citizen.
24. “ABCs” in this passage means___________.
A. three English letters B. a kind of banana
C. Chinese born in America D. Americans born in China
25. Chinese in Western countries are called “banana persons” because___________.
A. their bodies are white inside but yellow outside
B. they think like Westerners but look like Chinese
C. they were born in China but go to study in America
D. they like to eat bananas
26. Which of the sentences is WRONG about ABCs?
A. ABCs may know little about China. B. They are overseas Chinese.
C. They may speak little Chinese. D. They are Chinese citizens.
27. This passage mainly talks about___________.
A. different kinds of bananas B. overseas Chinese
C. the Nobel Prize D. the story of C.N. Yang
C
On a Sunday morning, I was driving down a road and saw something I couldn’t believe. A little girl, less than two, was pushing her stroller (婴儿车) across the road. It was Sunday morning and traffic was not heavy.
I stopped my car at once and ran toward her. This little girl knew enough to run from a stranger. I tried to catch her in order that I could get her out of the road. Suddenly her father came running down a hill across the road from where I had parked my car. He ran right to her and caught her up, saying “bad girl” to her. I picked up the stroller and gave it to him. The father grabbed (抓住) the stroller and walked toward where he came from without a word. I went back and sat in my car for a few minutes with my son. My hands were shaking and tears were about to run out of my eyes. “Do you feel cold, Mom?” asked my son. I just shook my head.
After this happened, I thought about how thankful I am. Even though the father didn’t say thank you, I feel that I did something good. Doing something for someone else is pleasing, even when it’s only a matter of being in the right place at the right time. I didn’t really “save” her, but I feel like it was important that I happened to be there. It is sad that I was the only one who stopped. It really made me a little disappointed that no one else stopped to help.
28. When the author saw the little girl, _____.
A. the girl had lost her way B. she was driving to work in a hurry
C. the girl feared to go across the road D. there weren’t many cars on the road
29. The little girl ran away from the author because _____.
A. she wanted to stay on the road B. she didn’t know the author at all
C. she wanted to look for her father D. she needed to catch her stroller
30. Why were the author’s hands shaking?
A. Because she was not feeling well.
B. Because she was too excited to keep calm.
C. Because the weather was very cold at that time.
D. Because she failed to be understood by the girl’s father.
31. The author thought that her help was _____.
A. really necessary B. worth praising C. not welcome D. not useful
D
A new study has found that all dogs have different personalities-even dogs of the same breed(品种).
Elinor Karlsson studies genetics at the University of Massachusetts. She co-wrote a report about the study, which appeared recently in the publication Science.
Karlsson said,“Every dog really is an individual,”noting that there is“a huge amount of difference” even between dogs that look the same.
At a New York dog park, dog owners talked about the different characteristics of their pets. Elizabeth Kelly owns an English springer spaniel(史宾格犬).
She called her dog friendly, but also“ kind of the queen bee”. In other words, her dog likes to act like it is in charge of other dogs. Suly described her yellow Labrador as “calm, lazy and shy”.
The idea of dog breeds is quite recent. Around 160 years ago,humans began to breed dogs to have certain physical qualities, such as fur,color and ear shape.
Karlsson said her aim was to learn how much a dog’s breed affects their behavior. The answer? Breed does not decide an individual dog’s personality.
Karlsson’s team gathered information from 1800 dog owners and studied the genetic code of over 2,000 dogs. The researchers found that some qualities are based on genetics. However, it is not sure that two dogs of the same breed will behave in the same way.
For example, huskies and beagles, may be more likely to howl or make a long, loud barking sound. But many of these dogs do not howl, as owner observations showed.
32. What do we know about Karlsson’s report?
A. She wrote it by herself. B. It was published in Science.
C. She finished it after graduation. D. It is of little value to her study.
33. What does the underlined “the queen bee” in Paragraph 4 probably mean?
A. A bee that behaves busily. B.A dog whose name is Queen.
C. A bee that serves the whole group.
D. A dog acting as if it is the most important.
34. What is the purpose of Elinor Karlsson’s study?
A.To help dog owners learn about their dogs better.
B. To prove dog breeds determine their personalities.
C. To study the tie between dog breeds and behaviors.
D. To show different dogs have different personalities.
35. What does the author want to tell us in the last paragraph?
A. All the dogs can make a long,loud barking.
B. Dogs of the same breed can behave differently.
C. Dogs owners may observe their pets carelessly.
D. Huskies and beagles are not the same dog breed.

Forgetfulness can be a normal part of aging. 36 As a result, some people may notice that it takes longer to learn new things; they don’t remember information as well as they did, or they lose things like their glasses, cellphones or other small items. These are usually signs of mild forgetfulness, not serious memory problems.
37 For example, medication side effects, vitamin B12 shortage, alcoholism，tumors(肿瘤) or infections in the brain can cause memory loss. A doctor should treat serious medical conditions like these as soon as possible.
Emotional problems, such as stress, anxiety or depression, can make a person more forgetful. For instance, someone who has recently retired or who is coping with the death of a relative or a friend may feel sad, lonely or worried. 38
The confusion and forgetfulness caused by emotions are usually temporary and go away when the feelings fade. The emotional problems can be eased by supportive friends and family. 39 Treatment may include counseling, medication or both.
If you’re concerned that you or someone you know has a serious memory problem, talk with your doctor. 40 Health care professionals can recommend ways to manage the problem or make suggestions on treatment or services that might help you out.
A. Consider participating in clinical trials or studies.
B. It’s advisable to have health issues treated in time.
C. He or she can diagnose the problem or refer you to a specialist.
D. But if they last for a long time, it is necessary to get help from a doctor.
E. Some memory problems are related to health issues that may be treatable.
F. As people get older, changes occur in all parts of the body, including the brain.
G. Trying to deal with these life changes leaves some people confused or forgetful.

第二节 读后续写（满分25分）
阅读下面短文，根据所给情节进行续写，使之构成一个完整的故事。
At the end of the class, Mr. Smith announced our assignment for the next Monday was to talk about someone we were grateful to instead of a book report. Upon hearing it, I couldn’t help complaining to Mareya that I was so nervous about having to talk in front of the whole class.
“ Arizona ,you’ve been in at least three plays ,” Mareya pointed out.“ If you don’t get stage fright in front of those big audiences, why are you bothered by a few kids in our class ?”
It was true, but in a play you were part of a group. I shook my head. Plus, there were so many people I was grateful to. There was no way I could possibly pick just one. Plus, even if I picked one I’ d have no idea what to say. Plus, even if I figured out what to say, I was a million- percent positive I’d mess up if I tried to say it out loud! I’d be standing there with everyone staring at me, waiting for words to come out of my mouth.“ Oh , my goodness !” I pulled my sweatshirt hood (兜帽) over my face, put my hands over my ears and said,“ I don’t want to talk about it !”
But one thing about really good friends who knew you really well was that they didn’ t always do exactly what you asked them to. Mareya could be pretty pushy talking of being helpful. She scribbled(潦草地写) something on a piece of paper , lifted my hood, and smiled. She’ d drawn a funny elephant (named Franky) with the word BREATHE coming out of its trunk .
“This is Franky, the ‘everything is going to be all right’ elephant” Mareya giggled. She held the picture up to her ear and asked, “What’s that you say, Franky? You think my friend Arizona should come over to my house this weekend so we can work on our talks together?”
注意：
1. 所续写短文的词数应为150左右；
2. 请按如下格式在相应的位置作答。
And that was exactly what happened.





On Monday morning, however, I decided to talk about Mareya.

Dear Wilson,
Knowing that you are interested in my choice of clubs，I’m writing to tell you that I have joined Chinese Painting Club.
I’m totally attracted to the club, because various activities are provided regularly, including training for green hands, painting outdoors and visiting art exhibitions. By joining the club, not only can I acquire basic painting skills, but also form a circle of friends with similar hobbies. Additionally, appreciating the traditional Chinese paintings offers me chances to deepen my insight into our unique culture.
Do you have similar clubs? Hope to hear from you soon.
Yours,
Li Hua

Paragraph 1:
And that was exactly what happened.
Arizona and I sat at the desk at the study in her house on Saturday afternoon. I asked her curiously who she would pick to talk about. “ My grandma ”. She blurted out. She told me she was grateful to her grandma, who took great pains to bring her up despite poor health. From her excited look and gentle tone, I could feel her deep gratitude and love for her grandma. I was so immersed in her talk that I didn't t notice she had finished it until she patted my shoulder. She then suggested I talk about my mum. I followed her advice as I had no other good ideas. She also helped me organize my ideas and gave me patient guidance on my gestures, emotions and eye contact when practising the presentation in her presence . She was so helpful that I got prepared for my talk very smoothly.
Paragraph 2:
On Monday morning, however, I decided to talk about Mareya. Though it was true that there were many people I was grateful to, I thought it was Mareya that I should express my gratitude to the here and now. When my turn came, I mustered up courage and stepped onto the platform. I couldn’t help looking at Mareya and found her smiling and cheering for me. Clearing my throat, I started: “ Today , I’d like to talk about Mareya , a friend I will always be grateful to .” Hearing the words, Mareya widened her eyes and looked at me in surprise. Then I recalled good times spent with Mareya and how she managed to help me out whenever I was in trouble. Upon finishing the talk, I trotted towards Mareya and gave her a bear hug. Meanwhile, thunderous applause rang through the classroom.
例文2：
And that was exactly what happened.
Magically, I did go to Mareya’s house to work on the talks together. We discussed, finalized the draft, and rehearse the homework. But I was still unsure if I could make it in front of the whole class." Just imagine all the elephants drawn by me are those big audiences” suggested Mareya, sticking all the pictures of Franky to each chair . It did work! Never did I felt nervous. I was so grateful for the elephants that I decided to talk about Franky on Monday morning. Mareya giggled and nodded her head.
On Monday morning, however, I decided to talk about Mareya . Obviously, there being no extra time for me to modify my draft, I stepped on the stage and delivered my speech without any draft.” Today, I’d like to talk about Mareya, she doesn’ t always do exactly what I asked her to. Plus, she doesn’ t hesitate to be helpful whenever I am in need. Plus, she doesn’ t fail to draw kinds of magical elephants to conceive me that everything is going to be all right ….” After I finished, the audience burst into thunderous applause. Not until then, did I realize who I needed to be grateful to. I threw myself to Mareya’s arms, held back my welling tears and said " Thanks , Mareya ”
例文 3:
And that was exactly what happened. Reluctantly, I inched my way into Mareya’s room. I sank into the chair, not knowing what to do. Maeya suggested that we pick _ one of the persons I appreciated first. My mind raced quickly and people’s names flooded in. I finally chose one Then Mareya encouraged me to write down what the person did moved me. Finally, with Mareya’s help, I even read it out aloud. But at night, I tossed and turned, thinking there must be something important ignored by me.
On Monday morning, however, I decided to talk about Mareya. Yes, it dawned on me that I had always ignored Mareya even though we spent so much time together. The memories that Mareya constantly encouraged and comforted me crowded into my mind. And it was also Mareya who created Franky, the lovely elephant to help me overcome my fear. I even didn’t need to write down my gratitude because the words just poured out as my eyes fell on her. After my speech, she came up to me and firmly said " That’ s what friends do !”
