Spelling Bee
An Annual Community Tradition
Since 1992, the Needham Education Foundation (NEF) has held an annual Spelling Bee to raise funds to support educational programs that benefit all Needham public school students. The event has become a fun community tradition that draws hundreds of spellers from Needham schools, businesses, and the community.
Ways to Support the Bee
The NEF relies on local businesses, community organizations and individuals to make the Bee a success. No matter how you choose to support the Bee, you are making learning come alive for Needham public school students. Thank you!

The sutures (手术缝线) were changing colors - quickly. First light purple, then dark purple. This was what Dasia Taylor had hoped would happen. She had the idea as a high school junior after she read about "smart" sutures that use technology to detect wound changes and then send information to a smartphone. Taylor's first thought was: This is cool, but what about those who won't be able to afford this technology?
So she set out to create a more cost-effective solution for an honors chemistry research project. She found it in beets (甜菜). Taylor developed a surgical suture additive from the root vegetable that changes color when an infection is present.
Human skin is naturally acidic, and "when our wounds are infected, our pH level increases from five to eight or higher," Taylor said. "I found that beets also change color at that point. So I put two and two together." In the lab, she observed that the beet-treated sutures change from light purple to dark purple when the pH level changes from healthy to infected, Taylor said. "All of these things were happening, and I was like, this is amazing and my guess was right," Taylor said.
According to the World Health Organization, 11 percent of patients in low- and middle-income countries who have surgery are infected in the process and such infections complicate 1.9 percent of surgical procedures, though it added that the number is likely to be higher. Taylor's project earned her a great international award. But the girl said that for her, the research has never been about the award. "I consistently classified (归类) my project as where equity meets science," Taylor said. "When you're doing research like this, you have to think about the lives you' re going to impact. You have to make sure the people you're affecting will be able to have access to it."
4、What is the practical use of Taylor's invention?
A. Helping wounds close. B. Making "smart" sutures.
C. Testing infections in wounds. D. Improving human skin's pH levels.
5、What does the underlined phrase "put two and two together" in paragraph 3 mean?
A. Made a guess. B. Asked a question.
C. Removed a doubt. D. Reached a goal.
6、What do the statistics in paragraph 4 suggest?
A. Surgical infections are deadly sometimes.
B. Taylor's creation will make a big difference.
C. Most surgical procedures are too complicated.
D. Low-income countries have improved medical services.
7、What sort of person is Taylor?
A. Ambitious. B. Cooperative.
C. Environmentally aware. D. Socially responsible.
I'm at the salon (美发厅) and my hairdresser Kristi Lauren is talking rubbish. To be precise, she's telling me exactly how much waste her salon recycles: last year it was 125 tonnes. Everything from hair to shampoo (洗发水) bottles is recycled in innovative ways. Her waste is collected by Waste Free Systems, a social enterprise.
Lauren explains the problem, "Our colour tubes are boxed, and they can have a paper ingredient (成分) list as well as the plastic cover and the metal tube. All our product bottles. Then there' s all that cut hair, and the unused colour that would normally be washed down the sink."
Waste Free Systems charges a fee for collecting the waste, and money raised by selling recycled materials goes to charities: Lauren, who runs an eight-chair salon, says, "It's a small price to pay. It ends up being just about $2 per client － we call it a green tax."
Paul Frasca is the co-founder of Sustainable Salons, a similar service which now works with almost 1,000 hairdressing salons and beauty salons across Australia and New Zealand. Frasca says many salons are now using their green programs actively as a marketing strategy. "The environmentally aware consumer is now the most important customer on the market. So it doesn't just make environmental sense."
Both programs are researching new ways to redirect waste. Waste Free Systems is using hair to provide nutrients for plants, while Sustainable Salons makes hair products for cleaning up oil leakage. Sustainable Salons has partnered with Dresden Vision to turn plastic shampoo bottles into frames (框架) for eyeglasses. Waste Free Systems has experimented with turning plastic bottles into 3D printing material.
8、What problem does Lauren explain in paragraph 2?
A. Salons use a lot of water. B. Salon waste is hard to recycle.
C. Salons create too much waste. D. Salon products are overpackaged.
9、What does Frasca mean by his words in paragraph 4?
A. Running a sustainable salon meets market demands.
B. Green programs should be independent of marketing.
C. There is room for improvement for Sustainable Salons.
D. It is difficult to raise consumers' environmental awareness.
10、What does the last paragraph mainly focus on?
A. Benefits of using green salon products.
B. Innovative ways of salon waste treatment.
C. Alternatives to plastic bottles used in salons.
D. Effects of technology on the beauty industry.
11、From which is the text probably taken?
A. A news story. B. An official report.
C. A research paper. D. A fashion advertisement.
A new study shows that the more people read any kind of fiction, the better their language skills are likely to be. The piece was written by. Sandra Martin-Chang of Concordia University in Canada, and her student Stephanie Kozak.
Martin-Chang and Kozak used a scale (量表) called the Predictors of Leisure Reading (PoLR) to investigate reading behaviours (motivations, attitudes and interests). They then examined how well the PoLR predicted the language skills of 200 undergraduate students, with all data gathered at York University in Toronto. The researchers note that the age range of the subjects in the study is of key interest. In early adulthood, reading becomes self-directed rather than forced by parents or teachers, which makes this a perfect time for developing one's own reading habits. This population is also rather understudied, with most existing research focusing far more on children.
The researchers administered a series of measures over two separate half-hour sessions. First, the volunteers completed the 48-question PoLR scale measuring various reading behaviours. They were then given language tests. The researchers found that people who enjoyed reading fiction for leisure and who identified themselves as readers scored higher on the language tests, while those who read to access specific information scored more poorly on the same tests.
The many benefits of reading have long been established. Besides having better language abilities, lifelong readers are known to be more understanding of others, attain higher socioeconomic status and even live longer, healthier lives than non-readers.
"Teachers and parents can develop a love of reading by letting young people read what they want, without guilt or shame. This established interest, wanting to read something over and over again, having a strong desire to read an entire series, feeling connected to characters and authors, these are all good things," Martin-Chang concludes.
12、What did the researchers take into consideration when choosing study subjects?
A. Their age. B. Their education.
C. Their family background. D. Their childhood reading habit.
13、What do we know about those who behaved poorly in the language tests?
A. They read a lot out of interest. B. They read to obtain information.
C. They were popular fiction lovers. D. They identified themselves as readers.
14、What might Martin-Chang advise teachers to do?
A. Tell students to read book series.
B. Ask students to read a book repeatedly.
C. Allow students to choose their reading freely.
D. Encourage students to read books related to them.
15、What is the best title for the text?
A. To open a book is always beneficial
B. Reading enriches both mind and heart
C. Lifelong readers are more understanding of others
D. Picking up a book for fun positively affects language abilities
二、七选五
16、阅读下面短文, 从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Last November, Michelle McGagh, a 34-year-old journalist, looked at her finances and discovered that every year she spent a lot of money unnecessarily. ①_______ She allowed herself £30 a week to buy food and household essentials. But she couldn't spend money on anything else— no clothes, no buses or flights, and no meals out.
At first, she tried to see her friends as often as before. She cycled 120 miles to be at a friend's wedding, and camped in their garden to avoid paying for accommodation. ②_______ But she couldn't join them for dinner in a restaurant, and when they went to the pub, she drank tap water. In the end, she simply went out less, which made her feel a bit lonely.
Of course, she couldn't afford to go abroad, so she missed a trip to Brazil. ③_______ Here, for the first and only time in the year, she bought food that she had not cooked herself—a bag of chips for £1.95.
At the end of the year, she had saved £23,000. She was much slimmer and fitter. She says she now feels freer and happier, because she appreciates the simple things in life. ④_______ But she learned the hard way that you can't really socialize if you don't want to spend money. The evening after her year-long challenge ended, she bought all her friends a drink in the pub. But she has not gone back to her past spending habits. ⑤_______ “Whenever you open your wallet, think about whether what you are buying is something you need or something you want," says McGagh.
A. Why did she decide to take up this challenge?
B. So what's her key tip for those who want to save?
C. She occasionally pays to socialize and go on holiday.
D. She also gained confidence and a sense of adventure.
E. So she made a plan: to stop spending money like that for a year.
F. The following weekend, she rode 60 miles to meet some friends.
G. Her only travel was a cycling trip to East Anglia, where again she camped.

April Fools’ Day
Nat woke early and jumped out of bed. Today was the best day of the year for him. Nat loved to play tricks, and today was April Fools’ Day.
Some of Nat’s tricks were big hits. Last year, he short-sheeted his sister’s bed. She couldn’t understand what was going on and started to think that her legs must have grown much longer during the day. When she realized what had happened, she laughed her head off.
Some of Nat’s tricks were not so successful. Mom didn’t think finding a furry toy mouse in the fridge was humorous at all. After she calmed down a bit, she said, “That’s it! There’s a ban on Nat tricks for two weeks.”
Nat was also the class clown. He was always making jokes in class. He liked it when he made the other kids laugh. Since it was April Fools’ Day, he felt like he had to come up with something really good to provide his classmates with some really good entertainment.
For that, Nat thought long and hard before he came up with his brilliant idea. He bought two toy frogs which were made out of green plastic and looked very realistic. Nat knew just the trick he would play on his classmates.
Nat arrived at school early. To succeed in his plan, he needed to get into the classroom before anyone else. Nat’s class had a rainforest terrarium (饲养皿). It had plants, insects, and three frogs in it. Nat’s idea was to pretend that the frogs had escaped. He knew that Ms. Lopez, his teacher, wasn’t afraid of frogs but several of his classmates, including himself, were.
Nat slipped into the classroom. Good! There was nobody here. He put one of the toy frogs on the floor, near the terrarium and the other on his friend Stacey’s desk. Nat knew that Stacey really didn’t not like frogs. Also, she played a great trick on him last April Fools’ Day. To make his trick more convincing, Nat pushed the lid of the terrarium open. Then he rushed off to morning gathering.
注意：
1.续写词数应为150左右：
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
When the students got back to class, no one noticed the toy frogs at first.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Nat realized that he had opened the lid of the terrarium.

参考答案
1、答案：C
解析：细节理解题。根据An Annual Community Tradition部分中的Since 1992, the Needham Education Foundation (NEF) has held an annual Spelling Bee to raise funds to support educational programs that benefit all Needham public school students可知，这次比赛是为了给学校筹钱。
2、答案：B
解析：细节理解题。根据Register a Bee Team - $375中的All teams must have three participants可知，所有的参赛队都要有三名参赛者。
3、答案：C
解析：细节理解题。根据Sponsor a Student / Teacher Team - $375中的Receive a $50 discount if you also purchase a full-page ad可知，参赛队的赞助者如果购买整版广告可以以优惠价（$375-$50= $325）支付赞助费。
4、答案：C
解析：细节理解题。根据第一段中的She had the idea as a high school junior after she read about “smart” sutures that use technology to detect wound changes及第二段中的Taylor developed a surgical suture additive from the root vegetable that changes color when an infection is present可知，Taylor的发明与第一段中提到的“smart” sutures的功能一样，都是为了检测伤口是否有感染。注：第二段中的additive意为“添加物，添加剂”，词根为add。
5、答案：A
解析：词义猜测题。划线部分上文内容是Taylor发明的理论基础——人的皮肤是酸性的，当伤口有感染时，皮肤的pH值会升高，甜菜的颜色会随着pH值升高产生变化，基于以上信息，Taylor“进行了猜想”——制造一种含甜菜的手术缝线，这样在伤口有感染时，手术缝线就会变色了（developed a surgical suture additive from the root vegetable that changes color when an infection is present）。再根据划线部分下文中的In the lab, she observed that the beet‑treated sutures change from light purple to dark purple when the pH level changes from healthy to infected及my guess was right可知，Taylor的猜想在实验室中得到了证实。put two and two together为英语习语，意为“根据所见所闻推断”。
6、答案：B
解析：推理判断题。根据第四段可知，中低收入国家的手术伤口感染率为11%，且1.9%（可能是低估数据）的手术会因为伤口感染而变得复杂化，两个数据表明中低收入国家的手术患者亟需Taylor的发明（成本低廉、简便高效）来帮助检测手术伤口感染，这一发明势必会产生巨大影响。
7、答案：D
解析：推理判断题。根据第一段中的Taylor's first thought was: This is cool, but what about those who won't be able to afford this technology及最后一段中Taylor所说的话I consistently classified my project as where equity meets science ... When you're doing research like this ... will be able to have access to it可知，Taylor发明这种手术缝线的初衷是为弱势群体服务，由此可判断，Taylor有很强的社会责任感。
8、答案：C
解析：细节理解题。第二段中Lauren解释了美发厅制造的各种废弃物：装染发剂的盒子、染发剂里面的纸质成分表、（染发剂的）塑料盖、（装染发剂的）金属管、产品塑料瓶以及剪下来的头发、没用完的染发剂等等。答对此题关键在于识别本段中的语篇标记语：and、as well as、All、Then、all that，这些词语表明了这些废弃物不仅种类繁多且数量庞大。
9、答案：A
解析：推理判断题。根据第四段中的Frasca says many salons are now using their green programs actively as a marketing strategy. “The environmentally aware consumer is now the most important customer on the market. So it doesn't just make environmental sense.”可知，许多美发厅现在将废弃物回收项目作为一种营销方式，因为现在的顾客注重环保，因此，Frasca的言下之意是经营一家环保美发厅（将美发厅产生的各种废弃物进行回收）符合市场的需求。
10、答案：B
解析：段落大意题。最后一段的主题句是首句Both programs are researching new ways to redirect waste，接下来具体介绍了两家回收企业在废弃物回收处理方面进行的各种创新：using hair to provide nutrients for plants、makes hair products for cleaning up oil leakage、turn plastic shampoo bottles into frames for eyeglasses、turning plastic bottles into 3D printing material。本段内容呼应了第一段中的Everything from hair to shampoo bottles is recycled in innovative ways。
11、答案：A
解析：文章出处题。本文介绍了澳大利亚、新西兰等国家的一种新现象：美发厅和美容院积极施行废弃物回收项目，本文最有可能采自一篇新闻报道。
12、答案：A
解析：细节理解题。根据第二段中的The researchers note that the age range of the subjects in the study is of key interest可知，研究人员认为此次研究对象的年龄是该研究中十分重要的因素。下文中的In early adulthood, reading becomes self‑directed ... most existing research focusing far more on children解释了研究人员为何选取此年龄阶段的学生作为研究对象的理由。
13、答案：B
解析：细节理解题。根据第三段中的The researchers found that people who enjoyed reading fiction for leisure and who identified themselves as readers scored higher on the language tests, while those who read to access specific information scored more poorly on the same tests可知，那些在语言测试中表现较差者的阅读习惯是为获取具体信息而阅读。三个干扰项描述的均是在语言测试中取得高分者的行为。
14、答案：C
解析：细节理解题。根据最后一段中的Teachers and parents can develop a love of reading by letting young people read what they want, without guilt or shame可知，Martin-Chang认为老师和家长应该让孩子们自由地选择想要看的读物。
15、答案：D
解析：标题归纳题。本文主要介绍了一项研究：那些为了休闲而读小说的人语言能力较高。D项作标题最能概括文意。本文第一段即介绍了本文主要内容（A new study shows that the more people read any kind of fiction, the better their language skills are likely to be），第三段对该内容进行了具体化说明（people who enjoyed reading fiction for leisure and who identified themselves as readers scored higher on the language tests）。D项是综合原文这两处信息的表达。三个干扰项谈及的均是阅读的好处，未涉及文章所提到的研究主要内容reading fiction for leisure，故排除。
16、答案：EFGDB
解析：①根据上文“discovered that every year she spent a lot of money unnecessarily(发现她每年都花了很多不必要的钱)”可知，Michelle MeGagh发现自己花了很多不必要的钱， 结合下文“She allowed herself £30 a week to buy food and household essentials.(她每周给自己30英用于购买食物和家庭必需品）”可知，她应是为自己制定了消费计划，E项“所以她制定了一个计划：一年之内不再像那样花钱。”符合语境。故选E项。
②根据下文“But she couldn't join them for dinner in a restaurant...(但她不能和他们一起去餐馆吃饭……)'可知， 上文应是提到“they”指代的具体人群，F项“接下来的周末，她骑了60英里去见几个朋友。”符合语境，下句的“they”指代F项中的friends。故选F项。
③根据上文“Of course, she couldn't afford to go abroad, so she missed a trip to Brazil.(当然, 她负担不起出国的费用, 所以她错过了去巴西的旅行)”可知，她因支付不起而错过了巴西之行，根据下文“Here, for the first and only time in the year, she bought food that she had not cooked herself—a bag of chips for £1.95.(在这里， 她今年第一次也是唯一一次买了不是自己做的食物— 一袋1.95英镑的薯条）”可知，空处应是承接上文，描述她没去巴西转而去了别的地方旅行，G项“她唯一的一次旅行是骑自行车去东安格利亚，在那里她又露营了一次”符合语境。故选G项。
④根据上文“She was much slimmer and fitter. She says she now feels freer and happier, because she appreciates the simple things in life.（她更苗条，更健康。她说，她现在感到更自由、更快乐，因为她感激生活中简单的事情）”可知，此处是描述她通过一年的坚持而发生的改变，D项“她也获得了自信和冒险精神”符合语境。故选D项。
⑤根据下文她说的话“Whenever you open your wallet, think about whether what you are buying is something you need or something you want(当你打开钱包的时候，想想你买的东西是你需要的还是你想要的)”可知，下文是她对省钱的建议，B项“那么，对于那些想要存钱的人，她的关键建议是什么呢”符合语境。故选B项。
17、答案：C
解析：根据was called to a small village in Turkey to attend to a client's cow可知，David被叫去一个小村庄护理一头奶牛，他没打算“停留（staying）”很长时间。
18、答案：C
解析：根据But what began as just a routine visit ended as可知，这次例行访问让David不会很快“忘记（forget）”。句中的began和ended是一对反义词，预示着结果与平时不同。
19、答案：B
解析：根据After wrapping up the job he'd come for可知，工作结束后，David准备“离开（leave）”村子。wrap up在此意为“完成（任务）”。
20、答案：A
解析：根据下文描述的事件可知，远处的某个东西“引起了他的注意（caught his eye）”。
21、答案：D
解析：根据上句中的something in the distance以及下文中的8-year-old可知，David看到的是一个“小（little）”女孩。
22、答案：B
解析：根据On her back was a dog可知，这个小女孩不是“单独的（alone）”，她还背着一只狗。
23、答案：C
解析：
24、答案：A
解析：根据上文提到的小女孩的到来和word had gotten around that a vet would come可知，“显然（Apparently）”，兽医要来的消息已经传开了，小女孩拒绝放弃这事“提供（presented）”的机会。
25、答案：D
解析：根据下段中的the dog's sickness可知，小女孩的狗“生病了（fallen sick）”。
26、答案：B
解析：根据word had gotten around和from her home to the spot可知，小女孩来到了她“听说（heard）”David会去的地方。
27、答案：D
解析：
28、答案：B

30、答案：C
解析：根据Fortunately、just和could easily be treated可知，狗的病并不太“严重（serious）”。它只是有些令它不舒服的皮肤“问题（issues）”，是很容易治愈的。
31、答案：A
解析：根据上文内容尤其是Desperate to get him help可知，小女孩和她的狗得到了“帮助（help）”，也收获了一个朋友。
32、答案：①the②was built③at④reliable⑤has worked / has been working⑥to inspect⑦direction⑧originals⑨what⑩simply
解析：本文是说明文。文章介绍了一项工程奇迹——美国的切萨皮克湾大桥。
①the。考查冠词。切萨皮克湾大桥将切萨皮克湾和大西洋连接了起来。表达两者中的另一个，需用the other。本句中的expanse意为“广阔区域”，故water expanse意为“水域”；可根据expand来推测expanse的意思。
②was built。考查一般过去时被动语态。build表示的动作发生在过去，且bridge与build之间是被动关系，故填was built。
③at。考查介词。at a time是固定搭配，意为“一次”。
④reliable。考查形容词作定语的用法。设空处修饰schedule，且意为“可靠的”，故填reliable。下句中的began work意为“开始工作”，其中的work是名词。
⑤has worked / has been working。考查现在完成时。根据for 20 years及语境可知，work表示的动作开始于过去且持续到现在，故填has worked。因为has worked和has been working意思差别不大，故也可填has been working。
⑥to inspect。考查动词不定式作状语的用法。设空处作目的状语，且句子主语Johnson ... and his crew与inspect之间是逻辑上的主谓关系，故填to inspect。
⑦direction。考查名词。设空处前有限定词each，且此处意为“方向”，故填direction。
⑧originals。考查名词复数。此处的original作名词，意为“原物”，再根据one of可知，设空处需填original的复数形式。
⑨what。考查连接词。设空处引导宾语从句，且在从句中作宾语，结合句意“人们能做的事情的一个象征”可知应填what。
⑩simply。考查副词。设空处修饰系动词，故填副词simply。
33、答案：
Dear James,
News comes that a photography exhibition on “Rural China” is scheduled for this weekend in students’ center. I’m writing to invite you to visit it.
As is advertised, there will be more than 150 exhibits, most of which record and present the unique charm of the landscape as well as traditions in the countryside. Thus, the exhibition serves as a platform, especially for someone so fond of Chinese culture like you, to learn more about the village life and folk culture in China.
This is absolutely a great opportunity you can’t miss. Looking forward to your reply.
Yours,
Li Hua

34、答案：
When the students got back to class, no one noticed the frogs at first. Then Stacey, who finally noticed the frog, screamed and pointed at her desk. The whole class exploded. A couple of other kids leapt out of their seats and shrieked while the rest were laughing and banging their desks. Nat was feeling very pleased with himself. His trick was definitely a success. But he knew he had to hide his glee. He pretended that he was working and reached out for a piece of paper. It was then that something cold and wet slithered past his fingers. It was a frog-a real one!
Nat realized that he had opened the terrarium. Suddenly, there came a loud croak from under his chair. Nat almost jumped out of his skin with fright. Now he became the laughingstock of the class. What scared him even more was the only person who remained serious-Ms. Lopez. She calmly walked down the aisle, scooped up the frog and put it back into the terrarium. Then she came to Nat’s side, seemingly waiting for his confession. Nat felt his face burning and apologized to Ms Lopez. He also promised to be considerate from then on.

The sutures (手术缝线) were changing colors - quickly. First light purple, then dark purple. This was what Dasia Taylor had hoped would happen. She had the idea as a high school junior after she read about "smart" sutures that use technology to detect wound changes and then send information to a smartphone. Taylor's first thought was: This is cool, but what about those who won't be able to afford this technology?
So she set out to create a more cost-effective solution for an honors chemistry research project. She found it in beets (甜菜). Taylor developed a surgical suture additive from the root vegetable that changes color when an infection is present.
Human skin is naturally acidic, and "when our wounds are infected, our pH level increases from five to eight or higher," Taylor said. "I found that beets also change color at that point. So I put two and two together." In the lab, she observed that the beet-treated sutures change from light purple to dark purple when the pH level changes from healthy to infected, Taylor said. "All of these things were happening, and I was like, this is amazing and my guess was right," Taylor said.
According to the World Health Organization, 11 percent of patients in low- and middle-income countries who have surgery are infected in the process and such infections complicate 1.9 percent of surgical procedures, though it added that the number is likely to be higher. Taylor's project earned her a great international award. But the girl said that for her, the research has never been about the award. "I consistently classified (归类) my project as where equity meets science," Taylor said. "When you're doing research like this, you have to think about the lives you' re going to impact. You have to make sure the people you're affecting will be able to have access to it."
4、What is the practical use of Taylor's invention?
A. Helping wounds close. B. Making "smart" sutures.
C. Testing infections in wounds. D. Improving human skin's pH levels.
5、What does the underlined phrase "put two and two together" in paragraph 3 mean?
A. Made a guess. B. Asked a question.
C. Removed a doubt. D. Reached a goal.
6、What do the statistics in paragraph 4 suggest?
A. Surgical infections are deadly sometimes.

7、What sort of person is Taylor?
A. Ambitious. B. Cooperative.

I'm at the salon (美发厅) and my hairdresser Kristi Lauren is talking rubbish. To be precise, she's telling me exactly how much waste her salon recycles: last year it was 125 tonnes. Everything from hair to shampoo (洗发水) bottles is recycled in innovative ways. Her waste is collected by Waste Free Systems, a social enterprise.
Lauren explains the problem, "Our colour tubes are boxed, and they can have a paper ingredient (成分) list as well as the plastic cover and the metal tube. All our product bottles. Then there' s all that cut hair, and the unused colour that would normally be washed down the sink."
Waste Free Systems charges a fee for collecting the waste, and money raised by selling recycled materials goes to charities: Lauren, who runs an eight-chair salon, says, "It's a small price to pay. It ends up being just about $2 per client － we call it a green tax."
Paul Frasca is the co-founder of Sustainable Salons, a similar service which now works with almost 1,000 hairdressing salons and beauty salons across Australia and New Zealand. Frasca says many salons are now using their green programs actively as a marketing strategy. "The environmentally aware consumer is now the most important customer on the market. So it doesn't just make environmental sense."
Both programs are researching new ways to redirect waste. Waste Free Systems is using hair to provide nutrients for plants, while Sustainable Salons makes hair products for cleaning up oil leakage. Sustainable Salons has partnered with Dresden Vision to turn plastic shampoo bottles into frames (框架) for eyeglasses. Waste Free Systems has experimented with turning plastic bottles into 3D printing material.
8、What problem does Lauren explain in paragraph 2?
A. Salons use a lot of water. B. Salon waste is hard to recycle.
C. Salons create too much waste. D. Salon products are overpackaged.
9、What does Frasca mean by his words in paragraph 4?
A. Running a sustainable salon meets market demands.
B. Green programs should be independent of marketing.
C. There is room for improvement for Sustainable Salons.
D. It is difficult to raise consumers' environmental awareness.
10、What does the last paragraph mainly focus on?
A. Benefits of using green salon products.
B. Innovative ways of salon waste treatment.
C. Alternatives to plastic bottles used in salons.
D. Effects of technology on the beauty industry.
11、From which is the text probably taken?
A. A news story. B. An official report.
C. A research paper. D. A fashion advertisement.
A new study shows that the more people read any kind of fiction, the better their language skills are likely to be. The piece was written by. Sandra Martin-Chang of Concordia University in Canada, and her student Stephanie Kozak.
Martin-Chang and Kozak used a scale (量表) called the Predictors of Leisure Reading (PoLR) to investigate reading behaviours (motivations, attitudes and interests). They then examined how well the PoLR predicted the language skills of 200 undergraduate students, with all data gathered at York University in Toronto. The researchers note that the age range of the subjects in the study is of key interest. In early adulthood, reading becomes self-directed rather than forced by parents or teachers, which makes this a perfect time for developing one's own reading habits. This population is also rather understudied, with most existing research focusing far more on children.
The researchers administered a series of measures over two separate half-hour sessions. First, the volunteers completed the 48-question PoLR scale measuring various reading behaviours. They were then given language tests. The researchers found that people who enjoyed reading fiction for leisure and who identified themselves as readers scored higher on the language tests, while those who read to access specific information scored more poorly on the same tests.
The many benefits of reading have long been established. Besides having better language abilities, lifelong readers are known to be more understanding of others, attain higher socioeconomic status and even live longer, healthier lives than non-readers.
"Teachers and parents can develop a love of reading by letting young people read what they want, without guilt or shame. This established interest, wanting to read something over and over again, having a strong desire to read an entire series, feeling connected to characters and authors, these are all good things," Martin-Chang concludes.
12、What did the researchers take into consideration when choosing study subjects?
A. Their age. B. Their education.
C. Their family background. D. Their childhood reading habit.
13、What do we know about those who behaved poorly in the language tests?
A. They read a lot out of interest. B. They read to obtain information.
C. They were popular fiction lovers. D. They identified themselves as readers.
14、What might Martin-Chang advise teachers to do?
A. Tell students to read book series.
B. Ask students to read a book repeatedly.
C. Allow students to choose their reading freely.
D. Encourage students to read books related to them.
15、What is the best title for the text?
A. To open a book is always beneficial
B. Reading enriches both mind and heart
C. Lifelong readers are more understanding of others
D. Picking up a book for fun positively affects language abilities

16、阅读下面短文, 从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Last November, Michelle McGagh, a 34-year-old journalist, looked at her finances and discovered that every year she spent a lot of money unnecessarily. ①_______ She allowed herself £30 a week to buy food and household essentials. But she couldn't spend money on anything else— no clothes, no buses or flights, and no meals out.
At first, she tried to see her friends as often as before. She cycled 120 miles to be at a friend's wedding, and camped in their garden to avoid paying for accommodation. ②_______ But she couldn't join them for dinner in a restaurant, and when they went to the pub, she drank tap water. In the end, she simply went out less, which made her feel a bit lonely.
Of course, she couldn't afford to go abroad, so she missed a trip to Brazil. ③_______ Here, for the first and only time in the year, she bought food that she had not cooked herself—a bag of chips for £1.95.
At the end of the year, she had saved £23,000. She was much slimmer and fitter. She says she now feels freer and happier, because she appreciates the simple things in life. ④_______ But she learned the hard way that you can't really socialize if you don't want to spend money. The evening after her year-long challenge ended, she bought all her friends a drink in the pub. But she has not gone back to her past spending habits. ⑤_______ “Whenever you open your wallet, think about whether what you are buying is something you need or something you want," says McGagh.
A. Why did she decide to take up this challenge?
B. So what's her key tip for those who want to save?
C. She occasionally pays to socialize and go on holiday.
D. She also gained confidence and a sense of adventure.
E. So she made a plan: to stop spending money like that for a year.
F. The following weekend, she rode 60 miles to meet some friends.
G. Her only travel was a cycling trip to East Anglia, where again she camped.

April Fools’ Day
Nat woke early and jumped out of bed. Today was the best day of the year for him. Nat loved to play tricks, and today was April Fools’ Day.
Some of Nat’s tricks were big hits. Last year, he short-sheeted his sister’s bed. She couldn’t understand what was going on and started to think that her legs must have grown much longer during the day. When she realized what had happened, she laughed her head off.
Some of Nat’s tricks were not so successful. Mom didn’t think finding a furry toy mouse in the fridge was humorous at all. After she calmed down a bit, she said, “That’s it! There’s a ban on Nat tricks for two weeks.”
Nat was also the class clown. He was always making jokes in class. He liked it when he made the other kids laugh. Since it was April Fools’ Day, he felt like he had to come up with something really good to provide his classmates with some really good entertainment.
For that, Nat thought long and hard before he came up with his brilliant idea. He bought two toy frogs which were made out of green plastic and looked very realistic. Nat knew just the trick he would play on his classmates.
Nat arrived at school early. To succeed in his plan, he needed to get into the classroom before anyone else. Nat’s class had a rainforest terrarium (饲养皿). It had plants, insects, and three frogs in it. Nat’s idea was to pretend that the frogs had escaped. He knew that Ms. Lopez, his teacher, wasn’t afraid of frogs but several of his classmates, including himself, were.
Nat slipped into the classroom. Good! There was nobody here. He put one of the toy frogs on the floor, near the terrarium and the other on his friend Stacey’s desk. Nat knew that Stacey really didn’t not like frogs. Also, she played a great trick on him last April Fools’ Day. To make his trick more convincing, Nat pushed the lid of the terrarium open. Then he rushed off to morning gathering.
注意：
1.续写词数应为150左右：
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
When the students got back to class, no one noticed the toy frogs at first.

参考答案
1、答案：C
解析：细节理解题。根据An Annual Community Tradition部分中的Since 1992, the Needham Education Foundation (NEF) has held an annual Spelling Bee to raise funds to support educational programs that benefit all Needham public school students可知，这次比赛是为了给学校筹钱。
2、答案：B
解析：细节理解题。根据Register a Bee Team - $375中的All teams must have three participants可知，所有的参赛队都要有三名参赛者。
3、答案：C
解析：细节理解题。根据Sponsor a Student / Teacher Team - $375中的Receive a $50 discount if you also purchase a full-page ad可知，参赛队的赞助者如果购买整版广告可以以优惠价（$375-$50= $325）支付赞助费。
4、答案：C
解析：细节理解题。根据第一段中的She had the idea as a high school junior after she read about “smart” sutures that use technology to detect wound changes及第二段中的Taylor developed a surgical suture additive from the root vegetable that changes color when an infection is present可知，Taylor的发明与第一段中提到的“smart” sutures的功能一样，都是为了检测伤口是否有感染。注：第二段中的additive意为“添加物，添加剂”，词根为add。
5、答案：A
解析：词义猜测题。划线部分上文内容是Taylor发明的理论基础——人的皮肤是酸性的，当伤口有感染时，皮肤的pH值会升高，甜菜的颜色会随着pH值升高产生变化，基于以上信息，Taylor“进行了猜想”——制造一种含甜菜的手术缝线，这样在伤口有感染时，手术缝线就会变色了（developed a surgical suture additive from the root vegetable that changes color when an infection is present）。再根据划线部分下文中的In the lab, she observed that the beet‑treated sutures change from light purple to dark purple when the pH level changes from healthy to infected及my guess was right可知，Taylor的猜想在实验室中得到了证实。put two and two together为英语习语，意为“根据所见所闻推断”。
6、答案：B
解析：推理判断题。根据第四段可知，中低收入国家的手术伤口感染率为11%，且1.9%（可能是低估数据）的手术会因为伤口感染而变得复杂化，两个数据表明中低收入国家的手术患者亟需Taylor的发明（成本低廉、简便高效）来帮助检测手术伤口感染，这一发明势必会产生巨大影响。
7、答案：D
解析：推理判断题。根据第一段中的Taylor's first thought was: This is cool, but what about those who won't be able to afford this technology及最后一段中Taylor所说的话I consistently classified my project as where equity meets science ... When you're doing research like this ... will be able to have access to it可知，Taylor发明这种手术缝线的初衷是为弱势群体服务，由此可判断，Taylor有很强的社会责任感。
8、答案：C
解析：细节理解题。第二段中Lauren解释了美发厅制造的各种废弃物：装染发剂的盒子、染发剂里面的纸质成分表、（染发剂的）塑料盖、（装染发剂的）金属管、产品塑料瓶以及剪下来的头发、没用完的染发剂等等。答对此题关键在于识别本段中的语篇标记语：and、as well as、All、Then、all that，这些词语表明了这些废弃物不仅种类繁多且数量庞大。
9、答案：A
解析：推理判断题。根据第四段中的Frasca says many salons are now using their green programs actively as a marketing strategy. “The environmentally aware consumer is now the most important customer on the market. So it doesn't just make environmental sense.”可知，许多美发厅现在将废弃物回收项目作为一种营销方式，因为现在的顾客注重环保，因此，Frasca的言下之意是经营一家环保美发厅（将美发厅产生的各种废弃物进行回收）符合市场的需求。
10、答案：B
解析：段落大意题。最后一段的主题句是首句Both programs are researching new ways to redirect waste，接下来具体介绍了两家回收企业在废弃物回收处理方面进行的各种创新：using hair to provide nutrients for plants、makes hair products for cleaning up oil leakage、turn plastic shampoo bottles into frames for eyeglasses、turning plastic bottles into 3D printing material。本段内容呼应了第一段中的Everything from hair to shampoo bottles is recycled in innovative ways。
11、答案：A
解析：文章出处题。本文介绍了澳大利亚、新西兰等国家的一种新现象：美发厅和美容院积极施行废弃物回收项目，本文最有可能采自一篇新闻报道。
12、答案：A
解析：细节理解题。根据第二段中的The researchers note that the age range of the subjects in the study is of key interest可知，研究人员认为此次研究对象的年龄是该研究中十分重要的因素。下文中的In early adulthood, reading becomes self‑directed ... most existing research focusing far more on children解释了研究人员为何选取此年龄阶段的学生作为研究对象的理由。
13、答案：B
解析：细节理解题。根据第三段中的The researchers found that people who enjoyed reading fiction for leisure and who identified themselves as readers scored higher on the language tests, while those who read to access specific information scored more poorly on the same tests可知，那些在语言测试中表现较差者的阅读习惯是为获取具体信息而阅读。三个干扰项描述的均是在语言测试中取得高分者的行为。
14、答案：C
解析：细节理解题。根据最后一段中的Teachers and parents can develop a love of reading by letting young people read what they want, without guilt or shame可知，Martin-Chang认为老师和家长应该让孩子们自由地选择想要看的读物。
15、答案：D
解析：标题归纳题。本文主要介绍了一项研究：那些为了休闲而读小说的人语言能力较高。D项作标题最能概括文意。本文第一段即介绍了本文主要内容（A new study shows that the more people read any kind of fiction, the better their language skills are likely to be），第三段对该内容进行了具体化说明（people who enjoyed reading fiction for leisure and who identified themselves as readers scored higher on the language tests）。D项是综合原文这两处信息的表达。三个干扰项谈及的均是阅读的好处，未涉及文章所提到的研究主要内容reading fiction for leisure，故排除。
16、答案：EFGDB
解析：①根据上文“discovered that every year she spent a lot of money unnecessarily(发现她每年都花了很多不必要的钱)”可知，Michelle MeGagh发现自己花了很多不必要的钱， 结合下文“She allowed herself £30 a week to buy food and household essentials.(她每周给自己30英用于购买食物和家庭必需品）”可知，她应是为自己制定了消费计划，E项“所以她制定了一个计划：一年之内不再像那样花钱。”符合语境。故选E项。
②根据下文“But she couldn't join them for dinner in a restaurant...(但她不能和他们一起去餐馆吃饭……)'可知， 上文应是提到“they”指代的具体人群，F项“接下来的周末，她骑了60英里去见几个朋友。”符合语境，下句的“they”指代F项中的friends。故选F项。
③根据上文“Of course, she couldn't afford to go abroad, so she missed a trip to Brazil.(当然, 她负担不起出国的费用, 所以她错过了去巴西的旅行)”可知，她因支付不起而错过了巴西之行，根据下文“Here, for the first and only time in the year, she bought food that she had not cooked herself—a bag of chips for £1.95.(在这里， 她今年第一次也是唯一一次买了不是自己做的食物— 一袋1.95英镑的薯条）”可知，空处应是承接上文，描述她没去巴西转而去了别的地方旅行，G项“她唯一的一次旅行是骑自行车去东安格利亚，在那里她又露营了一次”符合语境。故选G项。
④根据上文“She was much slimmer and fitter. She says she now feels freer and happier, because she appreciates the simple things in life.（她更苗条，更健康。她说，她现在感到更自由、更快乐，因为她感激生活中简单的事情）”可知，此处是描述她通过一年的坚持而发生的改变，D项“她也获得了自信和冒险精神”符合语境。故选D项。
⑤根据下文她说的话“Whenever you open your wallet, think about whether what you are buying is something you need or something you want(当你打开钱包的时候，想想你买的东西是你需要的还是你想要的)”可知，下文是她对省钱的建议，B项“那么，对于那些想要存钱的人，她的关键建议是什么呢”符合语境。故选B项。

21、答案：D
解析：根据上句中的something in the distance以及下文中的8-year-old可知，David看到的是一个“小（little）”女孩。
22、答案：B

32、答案：①the②was built③at④reliable⑤has worked / has been working⑥to inspect⑦direction⑧originals⑨what⑩simply
解析：本文是说明文。文章介绍了一项工程奇迹——美国的切萨皮克湾大桥。
①the。考查冠词。切萨皮克湾大桥将切萨皮克湾和大西洋连接了起来。表达两者中的另一个，需用the other。本句中的expanse意为“广阔区域”，故water expanse意为“水域”；可根据expand来推测expanse的意思。
②was built。考查一般过去时被动语态。build表示的动作发生在过去，且bridge与build之间是被动关系，故填was built。
③at。考查介词。at a time是固定搭配，意为“一次”。
④reliable。考查形容词作定语的用法。设空处修饰schedule，且意为“可靠的”，故填reliable。下句中的began work意为“开始工作”，其中的work是名词。
⑤has worked / has been working。考查现在完成时。根据for 20 years及语境可知，work表示的动作开始于过去且持续到现在，故填has worked。因为has worked和has been working意思差别不大，故也可填has been working。
⑥to inspect。考查动词不定式作状语的用法。设空处作目的状语，且句子主语Johnson ... and his crew与inspect之间是逻辑上的主谓关系，故填to inspect。
⑦direction。考查名词。设空处前有限定词each，且此处意为“方向”，故填direction。
⑧originals。考查名词复数。此处的original作名词，意为“原物”，再根据one of可知，设空处需填original的复数形式。
⑨what。考查连接词。设空处引导宾语从句，且在从句中作宾语，结合句意“人们能做的事情的一个象征”可知应填what。
⑩simply。考查副词。设空处修饰系动词，故填副词simply。

Dear James,
News comes that a photography exhibition on “Rural China” is scheduled for this weekend in students’ center. I’m writing to invite you to visit it.
As is advertised, there will be more than 150 exhibits, most of which record and present the unique charm of the landscape as well as traditions in the countryside. Thus, the exhibition serves as a platform, especially for someone so fond of Chinese culture like you, to learn more about the village life and folk culture in China.
This is absolutely a great opportunity you can’t miss. Looking forward to your reply.
Yours,
Li Hua

34、答案：
When the students got back to class, no one noticed the frogs at first. Then Stacey, who finally noticed the frog, screamed and pointed at her desk. The whole class exploded. A couple of other kids leapt out of their seats and shrieked while the rest were laughing and banging their desks. Nat was feeling very pleased with himself. His trick was definitely a success. But he knew he had to hide his glee. He pretended that he was working and reached out for a piece of paper. It was then that something cold and wet slithered past his fingers. It was a frog-a real one!
Nat realized that he had opened the terrarium. Suddenly, there came a loud croak from under his chair. Nat almost jumped out of his skin with fright. Now he became the laughingstock of the class. What scared him even more was the only person who remained serious-Ms. Lopez. She calmly walked down the aisle, scooped up the frog and put it back into the terrarium. Then she came to Nat’s side, seemingly waiting for his confession. Nat felt his face burning and apologized to Ms Lopez. He also promised to be considerate from then on.
解析：本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了主人公纳特在愚人节那天，用假青蛙愚弄班上同学，但是最终适得其反，使自己被一只真青蛙吓到的故事。
