D.Special.27.From the passage we know the author’s grandmother .A.lived with her familyB.was very skilled at bakingC.published a recipe bookD.had been on a game showCOne of the biggest risks a modern student faces is a broken phone or laptop.Jake Hertz and Isaac Roberts are two students who have launched a new business to meet this exact need：Campus Tech Repair.Hertz and Roberts started their business half a year ago and they’ve had amazing success.The first day they had posters up；they received nearly a dozen calls from students.Despite not having backgrounds in business，the two gladly accepted the challenges of starting up such an in-demand service.Hertz and Roberts experienced such a high demand because of the lack of any other hardware repair service on campus.The IT Center itself only provided software fixes：Hertz guessed that this was because of the increased responsibilities faced by repair services.Hertz and Roberts did make customers sign a release of responsibility，yet they also wanted to build a higher level of trust.This，Hertz noted，was the only real challenge that they expected to face.Becoming directly sponsored by the school could solve the problem of community trust.Hertz and Roberts have already engaged in conversation with the University toward this end.The main selling point of their service is its convenience，as well as the relatively low price.Many students have neither the time nor the means to visit a phone repair service in a store，in addition to the problem of cost.For them，Campus Tech Repair is the desired alternative.Hertz is optimistic about the future of the business.The two partners dream of expanding the range of their operation to include more students and be able to meet all hardware needs.They’ve even received requests to repair PlayStations(—种游戏机)，in addition to their specialties of computer and smartphone repair.They believe that with the support of the University，they could become a necessary part of campus services.28.Why is Campus Tech Repair popular on campus?A.It was set up by Hertz and Roberts.B.It meets students’ demands for hardware repair.C.It provides free services for students.D.It has skilled experts from the IT center.29.Hertz and Roberts had conversation with the University in order to .A.solve the problem of community trustB.sign a release of responsibility with customersC.get rid of their increased responsibilitiesD.improve their backgrounds in business30.What is Paragraph 5 mainly about?A.The problems the students have to solve.B.The challenges a repair service store faces.C.The weak points a phone or a laptop owns.D.The advantages Campus Tech Repair has.31.It can be learnt from the last paragraph that Hertz and Roberts .A.expect to enlarge their businessB.wish to do the campus services on their ownC.lack confidence in the future of their businessD.have much trouble repairing PlayStationsDDuring my travels through the mountains of Greece I was only ever scared once.It was dusk and as I walked alone I came across six large wolves that were feeding on the body of a dead animal.I had heard many stories about wolves as a child and it was this animal that I feared more than any other.The wolves before me were huge,at least 6 feet long and covered with thick grey fur.As I approached,the wolves left the blood-covered snow that surrounded the body and started walking towards me,one after another.They stopped about 20 meters from me and stared.The lead wolf raised his head into the air and took in a deep breath,as if he was smelling my presence.The animals looked both beautiful and terrifying,but I knew I could not show them my fear.As I drew nearer,the lead wolf raised its head once more but this time let out a loud howl(长嚎).The awful cry rang out across the silent valley.I had never heard a more frightening sound.I was almost certain it signaled death.Every moment I expected to see the pack dash(猛冲) at me.I knew my only hope was to pretend I had no fear.I walked past the line of wolves,like a general moving among his soldiers.They howled out again.But when they saw that their war-cry did not cause me to change my direction or make me run they feared to come after me,and they let me pass and returned to the dead animal.Had I turned back or tried to run away when they marched out to meet me I was certain the whole pack would have attacked me in a moment.But my show of false courage intimidated(威胁) them and kept them back.32.Why didn’t the wolves attack the man?A.They were no longer hungry when they saw him.B.The man was already known to the wolves.C.They were too far away to catch the man.D.The man showed no fear as he passed them by.33.In which order are the following events mentioned?a.The wolves walked towards the man.b.The man thought he was about to die.c.The wolves returned to the dead animal.d.The man had heard stories about wolves.e.The man walked past the wolves.f.The lead wolf took a deep breath.A.a,d,f,b,c,e B.d,a,f,b,e,cC.a,f,d,e,b,c D.d,f,a,b,c,e34.What is the author’s intention in writing this story?A.To show that mountains can be dangerous places.B.To discuss the habits of mountain wolves.C.To make people aware of the danger of wolves.D.To stress the need for courage when in danger.35.Which is the best title for this story?A.In the Face of FearB.My Greek AdventureC.My Mountain TravelsD.A Man without Fear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。Healthy Sleep TipsBelow is some advice on how to sleep better.Maintain a regular bed and wake time schedule.Go to bed at the same time every night.36.　　　 Try not to break this routine on weekends when it may be tempting to stay up late.As with your bedtime,try to maintain your regular wake time even on weekends. 37.　　　 When it’s time to sleep,make sure that your environment is dark.Even dim lights—especially those from TV or computer screens—can confuse the body clock.Heavy curtains or shades can help block light from windows,or you can try an eye mask to cover your eyes.The temperature of your bedroom also affects sleep.A bedroom that is too hot or too cold can interfere with sleep quality. Turn off your TV.Many people use the television to fall asleep or relax at the end of the day.38.　　　 However,television actually stimulates the mind,rather than relaxes it. 39.　　　 Exercise helps promote restful sleep if it is done several hours before you go to bed.Exercise can help you fall asleep faster and sleep more soundly—as long as it’s done at the right time.Try to finish exercising at least three hours before bed or work out earlier in the day. Consult your doctor.Use a sleep diary and talk to your doctor.Note what type of sleep problem is affecting your sleep or if you are sleepy when you wish to be awake and alert.Try these tips and record your sleep and sleep related activities in a sleep diary.40.　　 A.Exercise at the right time.B.Change your sleeping position.C.Keep your room dark and cool.D.Choose a time when you normally feel tired.E.You may even have a television in your bedroom.F.If problems continue,discuss the sleep diary with your doctor.G.Sleeping well is vital for physical,mental and emotional health.第三部分　语言知识运用(共两节，满分45分)第一节　(共20小题；每小题1.5分，满分30分)阅读下面短文，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。A magazine article told about a woman in rural Florida who was recovering from a lengthy illness.She
