Play it safe. Don’t take risks. High school is too early to make a difference. None of these criticisms were enough to stop me. I saw a real problem in the education system, and I wanted to deal with it. Some people pay over $70 an hour for private tutoring. My company charges less. I started my business only about four months ago, but I already have 11 tutors and make over $200 in revenue (收益) a week.
It started when someone contacted me and asked me to tutor her child for $15 an hour once a week. Friends began to take notice, and asked me where I got the part-time job — and that was when my eyes opened to the opportunity in front of me. I created a website, wrote a marketing plan and found qualified tutors who were friends of mine. We received an overwhelming response, with over 30 people requesting tutoring. As it progressed, I found my business knowledge limited. So I went to used book sales where I picked up lots of business textbooks.
The road to a successful business, however, was not easy. My partner didn’t respond to many of the people, so many potential clients were lost. Once I discovered what my partner was hiding from me, I immediately messaged each person personally saying I would get back to them soon, and I pointed them to our website. After a few weeks, word from mouth began to spread. Clients began coming to us, and we no longer had to advertise heavily.
You may be wondering why I started a business in the first place. It is a great way to show leadership experience, make money for yourself, and give you the opportunity to employ your classmates. While it is one of the riskiest things you can do, it is one of the most rewarding things. Leadership is one of the main qualities colleges look for, and the bravery and experience you show through starting a business shines through on applications.

【4题详解】
推理判断题。文章第一段“Play it safe. Don’t take risks. High school is too early to make a difference. None of these criticisms were enough to stop me.(小心谨慎。不要冒险。高中还太早,不能做出改变。这些批评都不足以阻止我)”可推知,作者很可能还是名学生。故选A项。
【5题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第二段“As it progressed, I found my business knowledge limited. So I went to used book sales where I picked up lots of business textbooks.(后来,我发现我的商业知识很有限。所以我去了旧书销售,在那里我买了很多商业教科书)”可知,作者想通过阅读商业书籍来提高自己的商业技能。故选D项。
【6题详解】
推理判断题。通过文章第三段“The road to a successful business, however, was not easy. My partner didn’t respond to many of the people, so many potential clients were lost. Once I discovered what my partner was hiding from me, I immediately messaged each person personally saying I would get back to them soon, and I pointed them to our website. (然而,通往成功的商业之路并不容易。我的合伙人没有回复很多人,所以很多潜在客户流失了。一旦我发现我的伴侣对我隐瞒了什么,我立即亲自给每个人发信息,说我很快会回复他们,并把他们指向我们的网站)”可推知,作者认为他的合作伙伴是不诚实的。故选B项。
【7题详解】
主旨大意题。通过文章最后一段“It is a great way to show leadership experience, make money for yourself, and give you the opportunity to employ your classmates.(这是一种展示领导经验、为自己赚钱、让你有机会雇佣同班同学的好方法)”再结合本段内容可知,本段讲的主要是作者的创业动机。故选C项。

American psychologist and writer Andrew Solomon won the 2014 Wellcome Book Prize on Tuesday for his Far from the Tree: a Dozen Kinds of Love about raising unusual children ranging from talents to those suffering from autism (自闭症) and reading disability.
The prize which is given to a book centred on medicine and health, is in its fifth year and carries a 30,000-pound cash award. Solomon’s book, 10 years in the making, is described as a “monumental work”. Using interviews with more than 300 families, the book covers subjects of many different kinds of children.
“Solomon has already been widely praised for his depth of research, his writerly gift and his range of words,” poet and writer Andrew Motion, the head of the judging group, said in the statement, adding that the book is “a profound reflection on the family and on the influence of medicine and science”. “It’s also a book that is driven powerfully by an appeal to personal experience-by his exploration of the difficulties and opportunities this created for him.” Motion said.
Solomon said he was honoured and congratulated the Wellcome Book Prize for choosing a work that deals with some of the difficult issues of medical and social progress. “There sometimes seems to be an opposition between the social progress that allows us to accept the range of human difference and the medical progress that allows us to cure and get rid of many such differences.” Solomon said. “My book is about the extraordinary stories of love and pity. For such a work to be recognized by a prize that is specially focused on medicine and health indicates the increasing openness to the questions of what makes up health, and what the proper limits are for medicine.”
8. The book Far from the Tree:a Dozen kinds of Love by American Andrew Solomon is about ______.
A. raising unusual children who suffered from disabilities
B. unusual children who were abandoned by their parents

B. Solomon wrote the book by interviewing about 300 children.
C. It took Solomon 10 years to finish the book.
D. Solomon got 30,000 pounds by cheque after getting the prize.

A. reflects the family and the influence of society
B. shows his depth of research and his writing ability
C. is widely praised for the subjects of his research
D. is about his personal experience and his exploration
11. What is the opinion of Andrew Solomon about his award-winning book?

Perhaps you’ve had to put up with a moody, uncooperative teenager, or you may well have been one yourself. A new study suggests that dogs go through a similar stage of stubbornness and disobedience (不顺从) when they hit adolescence at about eight months old.
Looking at the behaviour of a total of 378 canines (犬), researchers found that the animals were more obedient and more responsive either side of that eight-month mark— but only when it came to their owners, not to less familiar trainers.
So not only do dogs appear to have a difficult adolescence just like we do, they also share the frustration that we often feel towards our parents or caregivers when we hit our teenage years. That has big implications for long-term canine care and sheltering.
“This is a very important time in a dog’s life,” says animal behaviour researcher Lucy Asher, from Newcastle University in the UK. “This is when dogs are often rehomed because they are no longer a cute little puppy and suddenly, their owners find they are more challenging and they can no longer control them or train them.” “But as with human teenage children, owners need to be aware that their dog is going through a special stage and it will pass.”
In one experiment with 93 Labrador retrievers (狗) golden retrievers and their cross breeds (杂交品种), the dogs at eight months old were found to take longer and be loather to respond to a “sit” command given by their caregiver than they were when just five months old. The eight- month-olds didn’t show the same stubbornness when the command was given by a stranger, though.
The researchers found further evidence of this effect in survey data gathered on 285 Labradors, golden retrievers, German shepherds and their cross breeds. Dog owners and trainers less familiar with the dogs were asked to evaluate the animals ‘trainability’ by answering questions on obedience and how quickly commands were responded to.
Again, the caregivers ranked their dogs as less obedient at eight months old compared with five months old or 12 months old. The trainers reported that obedience increased between the ages of five months and eight months.
12. What is the function of the first sentence in the first paragraph?
A. To raise a problem of teenagers.
B. To lead to the main topic of the passage.
C. To give the background information of the passage.
D. To generalize the whole passage.
13. What is true according to the passage?
A. Dog’s special stage is permanent.
B. Dogs are more obedient at 5 months old compared with 12 months old.
C. Dogs of 8 months tend to listen to a stranger only.
D. Dogs’ owners may find it more challenging to control the dogs of 8 months.
14. Which one can replace the underlined word in the fifth paragraph?
A. more obedient B. more likely
C. more satisfied D. more unwilling
15. Which can be a suitable title for the text?
A. Dog’s obedience. B. Dog’s stubbornness.
C. Dog’s adolescence. D. Dog’s trainability.
【答案】12. B 13. D 14. D 15. C
【解析】
【分析】本文是说明文,狗和人一样也有青春期烦恼。
【12题详解】
推理判断题。第一段第一句“Perhaps you’ve had to put up with a moody, uncooperative teenager, or you may well have been one yourself.” (也许你不得不忍受一个喜怒无常、不合作的青少年,或者你自己就是这样的人。)第一句引出了青少年的特征,紧接着后面说“ A new study suggests that dogs go through a similar stage of stubbornness and disobedience” (一项新的研究表明,狗也会经历类似的固执和不服从阶段。)后一句引出了狗狗也会像青少年一样,所以第一句的作用是引出文章的主题。故选B项。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第五段“the dogs at eight months old were found to take longer and be loather to respond to a “sit” command given by their caregiver than they were when just five months old.” (研究发现,与5个月大时相比,8个月大的狗狗需要更长的时间,而且不愿对看护者发出的“坐下”命令做出反应。)本句给出了对比,相对于五个月大的狗,八个月大的狗更难控制。所以D项描述是正确的,故选D项。
【14题详解】
词义猜测题。根据第五段“the dogs at eight months old were found to take longer and be loather to respond to a “sit” command given by their caregiver than they were when just five months old.” (研究发现,与5个月大时相比,8个月大的狗狗需要更长的时间,而且不愿对看护者发出的“坐下”命令做出反应。)take longer和loather由and连接,是并列关系,所以此处表示狗狗不愿意回应,所以loather的意思是不愿意,故选D项。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段“A new study suggests that dogs go through a similar stage of stubbornness and disobedience (不顺从) when they hit adolescence at about eight months old.” (一项新的研究表明,狗在8个月左右进入青春期时,也经历了类似的固执和不服从阶段。)可知,全文都在说狗狗和人类一样有青春期,所以最佳标题是C项,故选C项。
第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分, 满分12.5分)
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。
Manners are a set of practices and forms which are followed in a wide variety of situations. If you are a newcomer to a particular culture, learning these rules can be very challenging. ___16___ It is safe to assume that there is a rule in every situation one might encounter. ___17___ That’s why many people study manners before travelling or entering a new social circle to ensure that they aren’t considered to be impolite or aggressive.
___18___ For example, the concept of greeting people politely and with respect is common to people of many cultures, although the way in which respect is expressed may vary. In some Asian countries, for example, people may bow or grasp their hands together when greeting someone, while in the United States, people often shake hands or hug each other.
The consequences of mistakes in manners may vary. ___19___ As a result, the people present at the time of the mistake might form a negative impression of you. At worst, a mistake could cost a friendship or a job, and in some regions of the world, a serious one could cost you your life.
By treating people as respectfully as you can and by using common sense, you will probably avoid most dangerous behavior-related situations. ___20___ It is especially important to learn such guides in the library or on the Internet in advance in case conflicts are caused thoughtlessly.
A. The rules of manners govern how people behave.
B. Actually even old hands sometimes have a tough time.
C. Manners begin when meeting someone for the first time.
D. But the good news is that it is very simple to learn manners.
E. At a minimum, you might make others feel slightly awkward.
F. And the rules of manners of different cultures can be quite different.
G. However, if you are planning to enter an unfamiliar culture, it pays to do research.
【答案】16. B 17. F 18. A 19. E 20. G
【解析】
【分析】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了不同文化的礼仪与规则的差异性与重要性。
【16题详解】
设空处上文“If you are a newcomer to a particular culture, learning these rules can be very challenging.” 指出如果你是一个刚接触某种文化的人,学习这些规则是非常具有挑战性的。下文“It is safe to assume that there is a rule in every situation one might encounter.(可以肯定地说,在每个人可能遇到的情况下都有一条规则。)”说明有每个人都有很多礼仪要学。结合上下文可知,B项“事实上,即使是老手有时也会有困难。”符合文意,且B项中的“have a tough time”与上文的very challenging一致。故选B项。
【17题详解】
通过设空处后文“That’s why many people study manners before travelling or entering a new social circle to ensure that they aren’t considered to be impolite or aggressive.(这就是为什么许多人在旅行或进入一个新的社交圈前都要学习礼仪,以确保自己不会被认为是不礼貌或有攻击性的。)”可知每个人在接触新领域的时候都要学习新的规则,由此推知不同文化的礼仪规则可能会很不一样。F项“不同文化的礼仪规则可能会有很大的不同。”符合文意。故选F项。
【18题详解】
通过下文“In some Asian countries, for example, people may bow or grasp their hands together when greeting someone, while in the United States, people often shake hands or hug each other.(例如,在一些亚洲国家,人们在问候某人时可能鞠躬或握住他们的手,而在美国,人们经常握手或拥抱对方。)”可知不同国家表达问候的方式不同。设空处为文章首句,为段落主题句。A项“礼仪规则支配人们的行为。”符合文意。故选A项。
【19题详解】
通过本段首句“The consequences of mistakes in manners may vary.(举止错误的后果可能各不相同。)”可知本段主要介绍举止出错的后果。再联系下文中的“At worst”,可知本空描述的是举止错误最轻微的后果。E项“至少,你可能会让别人感到有点尴尬。”且E项中的“At a minimum”与下文中的“At worst”相对应。故选E项。
【20题详解】
最后一段首句“By treating people as respectfully as you can and by using common sense, you will probably avoid most dangerous behavior-related situations.(通过尽可能尊重他人并运用常识,你可能会避免最危险的行为相关情况。)”说明运用常识有可能避免最危险的情况。又通过下文“It is especially important to learn such guides in the library or on the Internet in advance in case conflicts are caused thoughtlessly.(特别重要的是要提前在图书馆或互联网上学习这些指南,以防不经意间造成冲突。)”可知对新文化做研究可以防止在不经意间冒犯他人。联系上下文可知,本段主要表达了如果打算进入一个陌生的文化,做研究是很有必要的。G项“然而,如果你打算了解一个不熟悉的文化,做一些研究是值得的。”符合文意,故选G项。
第三部分 语言知识运用(共两节,满分30分)

【答案】Dear Jim,
Glad to hear from you. Thank you for your concern about my senior high school life.
Honestly speaking, the greatest challenge I have ever met since I entered high school is the English learning. Our English teacher speaks English the whole class, which is hard for me to follow. I knew I had to find a way out. So I referred to my deskmate’s notes after each class. At the same time, I spared some time every day to practise listening skills. To my relief, I have made some progress. Do you have any good suggestions for me?
Yours,
Li Hua

Vilma Washington was a nurse in Lucile Packard Children’s Hospital in Palo Alto, California. She has worked there for twenty-eight years. Since she came to the hospital, she has helped tens of thousands of premature babies come to the world.
Mrs. Washington was a mother of four children and had a happy family. Her husband was an engineer and worked in a big company. The only child at home was Mikel, who was in his high school. Every day, Mrs. Washington would get up at six, cook for breakfast for her husband and son, and then drive the baby to school before she went to work.
Her husband got good salaries and the family didn’t need her to earn money. But she still kept her work as a nurse, because she liked the work very much. She was a senior nurse in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (新生儿特护中心) to care for premature babies and was respected by all the doctors and nurses in the hospital. Patients, as well as doctors and nurses, came and left from the hospital, but she continued to work in the same hospital and even the same unit. Since it was one of the best children’s hospitals in the area, there were always more than enough patients. The work in the unit was naturally tough. Once you got into the nurse station, it was hard to find a chance to put yourself in a chair.
But Mrs. Washington never complained about the job. Instead, she enjoyed it, “I enjoyed the moment when a baby comes to the world with my help,” she said. “I like to see the happy and excited expressions on the parents’ faces and hear the beautiful first cry of a baby.” All the patients liked her. Every Christmas, she could receive countless cards, most of which were from her patients.
This Monday, a new doctor came to work in her unit of the hospital. He was a handsome young man. When Mrs. Washington saw the name on his name tag-Brandon Seminatore, something suddenly hit her.
“Do you live in Handwood Street and your father is a bus driver?” she asked.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
He told his parents about Mrs. Washington after going home that day.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】“Do you live in Handwood Street and your father is a bus driver?” she asked. “Yes, exactly. My parents still live in the street, but my father retired years ago,” answered the young man. “So, that’s right,” Mrs. Washington said. It turned out that the young man was one of the babies she cared for twenty-eight years before his parents took him home. The young doctor was so happy and surprised to know this.
He told his parents about Mrs. Washington after going home that day. Mr. And Mrs. Seminatore were more than happy. The following day, they went to the unit to meet Mrs. Washington who had helped their son. They took the picture that was kept for many years with them, on which was their son in Mrs. Washington’s arms. The unit was filled with great delight that day. The meeting of patients and nurses eventually became a big party! A lot of people gathered to witness the reunion after twenty-eight years. Mrs. Washington was especially excited. “ As a nurse,” she said, “it’s really a kind of reward for me.”
