第二部分:阅读理解(共两节,满分35分)
第一节(共10小题;每小题2.5分,满分25分)
阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中,选出最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
A
The jaguars(美洲豹)didn't bother me much during the day.Adonis,our local guide who was leading us deep into the Guatemalan jungle,guaranteed that we wouldn't come under attack from the jaguars.The most recent time he had seen one was more than a year ago. Last week,he had spotted some jaguar tracks, which was probably about as close to the animals as we would get,he said.
But his guarantee meant little that night as I cowered in my hammock(吊床) under the Central American stars.Now my mind turned every soft sound of waving leaves into a moving big cat full of murderous intent(probably to get back at the rude human who had interrupted its life.)And,if it wasn't a jaguar ready to attack,it was a poisonous snake,picking which of my bottoms to sink its long
sharp tooth into.
Tiredness calmed my overactive imagination and I slept slightly.Next day, big surprise:no death by either snake bite or jaguar attack and injury.We packed up our stuff and continued toward our destination,El Mirador,the site of the tallest temple in the Mayan world.
Although we may have questioned why we had left a perfectly nice beach to come here,that night no doubts remained.Just before sunset we took our places at the top of the temple hill.A Mayan astrologer(占星家)had probably sat in the same place 2,000 years before and improved his knowledge of the Milky Way.
Tonight,as with every night,spectacular pink shades marked the western skyline. The sky darkened and,one by one,the stars shone with a soft light into life..
21.What did the guide think of the jaguars?
A.They were difficult to find. B.They were aggressive killers.
C.They were tough to deal with. D.They had close relations with man.
22.What does the underlined word"cowered"in Paragraph 2 most nearly mean?
A.Shrank. B.Skipped. C. Relaxed. D. Danced.
23.What message is the author trying to convey in the last paragraph?
A.We should show respect to nature. B.Traveling in the jungle can be dangerous.
C.The ecology problem requires urgent attention. D.The universe is lasting while human life is short.
B
Some people may think that students who study abroad have more time for relaxation and less homework.But as a matter of fact,Grade 12 students in Canada are just as busy and pressured as students in China.In Canada,students have to pay equal attention to all the tests and assignments,as every little evaluation will directly affect their final grades.
To ease some of the stress from the important courses,like mathematics and English,students will often choose one or two fun courses in the last year of high school.Those classes can give students a fairly excellent final grade.
Take me as an example-the classes I am attending this semester include advanced functions,graphic design and history.All of them are really important to me,which means I have to pay more attention to them.
In order to get enough elective credits to grade,I chose a relatively easy course,nutrition and health.This course is aimed at helping students develop a healthy lifestyle and diet.The biggest highlight of this course is that students can experience cooking and baking,which I believe is the reason why there 're a large number of students on the waiting list Usually,there are one or two food labs every month.Teachers always let students decide what they want to cook or bake. Students are divided into four groups with six people,and teachers are given the recipe beforehand.
After attending this class for more than three months,I believe it's not as easy as others think it is because it's an interdisciplinary(跨学科)course that requires basic knowledge of science,humanity and even culinary.
Despite these kinds of courses not being as demanding as others,we can still learn a lot from them.Some people might think they're"mark-boosting(促进分数的)"courses that don't need to be taken seriously.But I consider them to be a unique way to ease the tension or other schoolwork.
24.Why do Grade 12 students in Canada take fun elective courses?
A.To pass the free time. B.To put theory into practice.
C.To adopt a healthy lifestyle. D.To get relief from schoolwork.
25.It can be learned from paragraph 4 that Canadian elective classes are ____
A.easy but boring B.diverse but stressful
C.practical and beneficial D.interesting and inspiring
26.Which of the following might be the best title for the text?
A.School Life in Canada B.Canada's Elective Classes
C.Educational System in Canada D.Tips for Choosing Elective Classes
C
Before she leaves home in San Francisco,California,Jennifer Schaefer, puts on long sleeves and a big hat she calls her"personal umbrella."With her fair skin,red hair,memories of bad childhood sunburn,and a family history of skin cancer,Schaefer is painfully aware of the danger of exposure to ultraviolet(紫外线radiation,which accounts for the vast majority of skin cancers.
So she finds it unbelievable how few people bother with sun safety,with most preferring sun worship to sun protection."In our culture,it's almost funny to be too protected,"she says,highlighting the way her friends tease her when she puts on her bathing suit-a protective 'rash guard' top and knee-length board shorts."We're slowly starting to become aware of the long-term effects of the sun,but it's like global warming-people are not going to make serious changes until they feel a direct impact."
That impact has helped push Australians,who are famous for sun loving,into changing their behavior.With its high solar ultraviolet levels and mostly fair-skinned population,Australia has the highest rate of skin cancer in the world.But after decades of increase,the melanoma(黑色瘤)rate began to stay at a steady level in the mid 1990s.The incidence of melanoma among young people's
is now falling,as national surveys show that most Australians-more than 70% of adults and 55%of adolescents-no longer prefer a tan(棕褐色)。
A 2013 study shows that,in addition to Australia,,a handful of countries-notably New Zealand,Canada,Israel,Norway,the Czech Republic(for women)and the United States(for white men)-have melanoma rates that are declining or stabilizing among young people.
Back in San Francisco,Jennifer Schaefer is doing her best to educate the next generation.Her eldest daughter automatically puts on a hat to go outside."Habits really start in children-it is like brushing your teeth,"she says.
27.By describing Schaefer's bathing suit,the author suggests that Schaefer
A.does not mind the teasing by her friends B.attaches great importance to sun protection
C.goes to extreme measures to avoid the sun D.is more interested in surfing than sunbathing
28.What do New Zealand and Canada have in common?
A.Sun protection programs are developing quickly.
B.Their citizens prefer to be pale rather than get tanned.
C.Skin cancer rates are not increasing among the young.
D.Women and white men have the lowest rates of melanoma.
29.What function does the final sentence have?
A.It makes the conclusion more meaningful.
B.It makes a complex concept easier to understand.
C.A serious topic is made more cheerful and attractive.
D.A familiar example supports the point made by the author.
30.What's the purpose of the text?
A.To help individuals know how to make medical decisions.
B.To call for more research into ultraviolet radiation effect.
C.To draw the public's attention to ultraviolet radiation effect.
D.To honor a mother for her research into ultraviolet radiation.

Expect More From Your Memory
How many African countries can you remember?Try to say as many as you can before reading on...
There are 54 countries in Africa.If you got them all,well done!Hardly anyone does,of course.But most people could have gotten more than they did.Motivation is a big part of memory.Be honest:if there had been a big prize of this task,wouldn't you have pushed yourself a bit more? 31__ And,since most people don't expect much from their memory,they limit their chances of success from the word go.
Not everyone,though.When people get competitive about memory,they do amazing things.Back in the 1980s,I broke a world record by memorizing six packs of playing cards.32 Psychologist Carol Dweck popularized the “growth mindset”-the belief that you can keep improving your abilities,with commitment.Here are four ways to use that approach.
Step 1:Admit what you're good at.Think about the things that you remember with ease.There's no reason why your memory can't work that well all the time.
Step 2: 33 Notice people who seem to have a clever trick for names,or manage to hold their to-do list in their head.See if you can spot some of their secrets.
Step 3:Find ways to get better.Any information can be made more memorable by organizing it effectively,and using your imagination.34
Step 4:Practise:Take every opportunity to use your memory.Stretch it a little each day by setting yourself challenges.
Now,go back to the challenge at the beginning.35
A.Practice more!
B.Watch how others do it.
C.But self-belief is often an even bigger factor.
D.Now, the record is 37 packs-in just one hour.
E.Experiment with a range of creative memory techniques.
F.People always limit their abilities for lack of confidence.
G.Push yourself to do better,and really believe that you can.

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。
Mei Mei frowned as she helped her mother and father set out the cooking supplies in the shiny steel kitchen.Her family had just moved here from San Francisco,having bought a small restaurant,which was set to open in the next few days.
"Moving here was a stupid idea.I have lost all my friends in San Francisco.
What should I do now?"Mei Mei grumbled,mostly to herself.
“What's that?"Her mother asked,opening a box and lifting out several pots and a wok.
"Nothing,"Mei Mei mumbled.The girl had been complaining about the move,but her parents had made the decision and were now too busy getting ready for the grand opening to listen to her complaints.
The first few days at her new school hadn't been easy,either.She found it hard to talk to people she didn't know,and it seemed like the students hadn't even noticed her.Mei Mei sighed and got back to washing dishes.
On the day of the grand opening,Mei Mei's parents were all smiles, welcoming customers into the restaurant,brightly decorated in gold and red.Even Mei Mei was in a good mood as she rushed around,seating guests,handing out menus,and pouring tall glasses of water.This was a big day for her family.
At one of the tables sat a family with two daughters who were about Mei Mei's age.As she filled their glasses,Mei Mei realized the twins were in her class.Mei Mei ducked her head down so her long hair covered her face,and she turned away from the table.
Mei Mei's mother found her soon after,in the kitchen loading the dishwasher.
"Honey,what are you doing back here?We need you out front with the customers.”

Dear fellow students,
Currently,many students suffer from poor eyesight due to excessive or improper use of eyes.Thus,I'm advocating“Protect Our Eyes”。
Eyes are the window to the soul.Having good eyesight means we can not only see things clearly but also appreciate beautiful scenes better.Anyway,only when we form a good habit of protecting eyes,such as doing regular eye-exercises and reading in right light,can we really enjoy our life.
See well,live well.So don't hesitate to act at once!
Yours,
Li Hua

years.
M:No,actually his birthday is on Friday.
Text 6
M:You look tired.What's wrong?No sleep?Bad day at work?
W:Actually the latter.Two teenagers attempted to steal.
M:Oh,no.
W:The security guard caught them.But we had to call the police,and I hated having police cars outside my store.It doesn't exactly encourage people to come in and buy books.Then their parents came to pick them up.
M:Well,I hope the two teenagers have learned a lesson this time.
Text 7
M:So now we're going over to Joanna who's there where it's all been happening.Joanna,how are the police and other services going?
W:Well,things are difficult.Many people are still unable to escape from their homes and hoping that things will not get any worse.The fire service has been able to rescue some people from the roofs of their homes but a couple of key roads are impossible because of the river Teal breaking its banks.There's still considerable uncertainty as to the numbers of people affected.
M:A number of listeners have called us about how to provide help.What can you tell us about that,Joanna?
W:Not much at the moment,I'm afraid.But I've been told that something will be in place by the end of the day.
M:OK.Thank you,Joanna.

M:I'll have a try.Thank you.
Text 9
W:Hi,Tim.How's the new job at the supermarket?
M:Don't ask!
W:What's wrong?
M:I thought I'd be working as a cashier.You know,taking people's money and chatting to them.That would be much more interesting.But I didn't get the position.I complained to my boss about it and she got quite angry with me.She said I had a bad attitude and the reason why I'm organizing shelves is that I can learn where everything is from doing so.
W:I'm afraid I agree with her.What she said is very sensible and you have to prove yourself in a new job.You've just started it two weeks ago.You'd feel better in one or two more weeks.
M:So you're taking her side.
W:I just don't think you are being reasonable enough,so you will not do well there if you don't follow the arrangement and show some respect.
M:Maybe you're right,as everyone else seems to have a good relationship with her.What
should I do to make things better?

第二部分:阅读理解(共两节,满分35分)
第一节(共10小题;每小题2.5分,满分25分)
阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中,选出最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
A
The jaguars(美洲豹)didn't bother me much during the day.Adonis,our local guide who was leading us deep into the Guatemalan jungle,guaranteed that we wouldn't come under attack from the jaguars.The most recent time he had seen one was more than a year ago. Last week,he had spotted some jaguar tracks, which was probably about as close to the animals as we would get,he said.
But his guarantee meant little that night as I cowered in my hammock(吊床) under the Central American stars.Now my mind turned every soft sound of waving leaves into a moving big cat full of murderous intent(probably to get back at the rude human who had interrupted its life.)And,if it wasn't a jaguar ready to attack,it was a poisonous snake,picking which of my bottoms to sink its long
sharp tooth into.
Tiredness calmed my overactive imagination and I slept slightly.Next day, big surprise:no death by either snake bite or jaguar attack and injury.We packed up our stuff and continued toward our destination,El Mirador,the site of the tallest temple in the Mayan world.
Although we may have questioned why we had left a perfectly nice beach to come here,that night no doubts remained.Just before sunset we took our places at the top of the temple hill.A Mayan astrologer(占星家)had probably sat in the same place 2,000 years before and improved his knowledge of the Milky Way.
Tonight,as with every night,spectacular pink shades marked the western skyline. The sky darkened and,one by one,the stars shone with a soft light into life..
21.What did the guide think of the jaguars?
A.They were difficult to find. B.They were aggressive killers.
C.They were tough to deal with. D.They had close relations with man.
22.What does the underlined word"cowered"in Paragraph 2 most nearly mean?
A.Shrank. B.Skipped. C. Relaxed. D. Danced.
23.What message is the author trying to convey in the last paragraph?
A.We should show respect to nature. B.Traveling in the jungle can be dangerous.
C.The ecology problem requires urgent attention. D.The universe is lasting while human life is short.
B
Some people may think that students who study abroad have more time for relaxation and less homework.But as a matter of fact,Grade 12 students in Canada are just as busy and pressured as students in China.In Canada,students have to pay equal attention to all the tests and assignments,as every little evaluation will directly affect their final grades.
To ease some of the stress from the important courses,like mathematics and English,students will often choose one or two fun courses in the last year of high school.Those classes can give students a fairly excellent final grade.
Take me as an example-the classes I am attending this semester include advanced functions,graphic design and history.All of them are really important to me,which means I have to pay more attention to them.
In order to get enough elective credits to grade,I chose a relatively easy course,nutrition and health.This course is aimed at helping students develop a healthy lifestyle and diet.The biggest highlight of this course is that students can experience cooking and baking,which I believe is the reason why there 're a large number of students on the waiting list Usually,there are one or two food labs every month.Teachers always let students decide what they want to cook or bake. Students are divided into four groups with six people,and teachers are given the recipe beforehand.
After attending this class for more than three months,I believe it's not as easy as others think it is because it's an interdisciplinary(跨学科)course that requires basic knowledge of science,humanity and even culinary.
Despite these kinds of courses not being as demanding as others,we can still learn a lot from them.Some people might think they're"mark-boosting(促进分数的)"courses that don't need to be taken seriously.But I consider them to be a unique way to ease the tension or other schoolwork.
24.Why do Grade 12 students in Canada take fun elective courses?
A.To pass the free time. B.To put theory into practice.
C.To adopt a healthy lifestyle. D.To get relief from schoolwork.
25.It can be learned from paragraph 4 that Canadian elective classes are ____
A.easy but boring B.diverse but stressful
C.practical and beneficial D.interesting and inspiring
26.Which of the following might be the best title for the text?
A.School Life in Canada B.Canada's Elective Classes
C.Educational System in Canada D.Tips for Choosing Elective Classes
C
Before she leaves home in San Francisco,California,Jennifer Schaefer, puts on long sleeves and a big hat she calls her"personal umbrella."With her fair skin,red hair,memories of bad childhood sunburn,and a family history of skin cancer,Schaefer is painfully aware of the danger of exposure to ultraviolet(紫外线radiation,which accounts for the vast majority of skin cancers.
So she finds it unbelievable how few people bother with sun safety,with most preferring sun worship to sun protection."In our culture,it's almost funny to be too protected,"she says,highlighting the way her friends tease her when she puts on her bathing suit-a protective 'rash guard' top and knee-length board shorts."We're slowly starting to become aware of the long-term effects of the sun,but it's like global warming-people are not going to make serious changes until they feel a direct impact."
That impact has helped push Australians,who are famous for sun loving,into changing their behavior.With its high solar ultraviolet levels and mostly fair-skinned population,Australia has the highest rate of skin cancer in the world.But after decades of increase,the melanoma(黑色瘤)rate began to stay at a steady level in the mid 1990s.The incidence of melanoma among young people's
is now falling,as national surveys show that most Australians-more than 70% of adults and 55%of adolescents-no longer prefer a tan(棕褐色)。
A 2013 study shows that,in addition to Australia,,a handful of countries-notably New Zealand,Canada,Israel,Norway,the Czech Republic(for women)and the United States(for white men)-have melanoma rates that are declining or stabilizing among young people.
Back in San Francisco,Jennifer Schaefer is doing her best to educate the next generation.Her eldest daughter automatically puts on a hat to go outside."Habits really start in children-it is like brushing your teeth,"she says.
27.By describing Schaefer's bathing suit,the author suggests that Schaefer
A.does not mind the teasing by her friends B.attaches great importance to sun protection
C.goes to extreme measures to avoid the sun D.is more interested in surfing than sunbathing
28.What do New Zealand and Canada have in common?
A.Sun protection programs are developing quickly.
B.Their citizens prefer to be pale rather than get tanned.
C.Skin cancer rates are not increasing among the young.
D.Women and white men have the lowest rates of melanoma.
29.What function does the final sentence have?
A.It makes the conclusion more meaningful.
B.It makes a complex concept easier to understand.
C.A serious topic is made more cheerful and attractive.
D.A familiar example supports the point made by the author.
30.What's the purpose of the text?
A.To help individuals know how to make medical decisions.
B.To call for more research into ultraviolet radiation effect.
C.To draw the public's attention to ultraviolet radiation effect.
D.To honor a mother for her research into ultraviolet radiation.

Expect More From Your Memory
How many African countries can you remember?Try to say as many as you can before reading on...
There are 54 countries in Africa.If you got them all,well done!Hardly anyone does,of course.But most people could have gotten more than they did.Motivation is a big part of memory.Be honest:if there had been a big prize of this task,wouldn't you have pushed yourself a bit more? 31__ And,since most people don't expect much from their memory,they limit their chances of success from the word go.
Not everyone,though.When people get competitive about memory,they do amazing things.Back in the 1980s,I broke a world record by memorizing six packs of playing cards.32 Psychologist Carol Dweck popularized the “growth mindset”-the belief that you can keep improving your abilities,with commitment.Here are four ways to use that approach.
Step 1:Admit what you're good at.Think about the things that you remember with ease.There's no reason why your memory can't work that well all the time.
Step 2: 33 Notice people who seem to have a clever trick for names,or manage to hold their to-do list in their head.See if you can spot some of their secrets.
Step 3:Find ways to get better.Any information can be made more memorable by organizing it effectively,and using your imagination.34
Step 4:Practise:Take every opportunity to use your memory.Stretch it a little each day by setting yourself challenges.
Now,go back to the challenge at the beginning.35
A.Practice more!
B.Watch how others do it.
C.But self-belief is often an even bigger factor.
D.Now, the record is 37 packs-in just one hour.
E.Experiment with a range of creative memory techniques.
F.People always limit their abilities for lack of confidence.
G.Push yourself to do better,and really believe that you can.

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。
Mei Mei frowned as she helped her mother and father set out the cooking supplies in the shiny steel kitchen.Her family had just moved here from San Francisco,having bought a small restaurant,which was set to open in the next few days.
"Moving here was a stupid idea.I have lost all my friends in San Francisco.
What should I do now?"Mei Mei grumbled,mostly to herself.
“What's that?"Her mother asked,opening a box and lifting out several pots and a wok.
"Nothing,"Mei Mei mumbled.The girl had been complaining about the move,but her parents had made the decision and were now too busy getting ready for the grand opening to listen to her complaints.
The first few days at her new school hadn't been easy,either.She found it hard to talk to people she didn't know,and it seemed like the students hadn't even noticed her.Mei Mei sighed and got back to washing dishes.
On the day of the grand opening,Mei Mei's parents were all smiles, welcoming customers into the restaurant,brightly decorated in gold and red.Even Mei Mei was in a good mood as she rushed around,seating guests,handing out menus,and pouring tall glasses of water.This was a big day for her family.
At one of the tables sat a family with two daughters who were about Mei Mei's age.As she filled their glasses,Mei Mei realized the twins were in her class.Mei Mei ducked her head down so her long hair covered her face,and she turned away from the table.
Mei Mei's mother found her soon after,in the kitchen loading the dishwasher.
"Honey,what are you doing back here?We need you out front with the customers.”

Dear fellow students,
Currently,many students suffer from poor eyesight due to excessive or improper use of eyes.Thus,I'm advocating“Protect Our Eyes”。
Eyes are the window to the soul.Having good eyesight means we can not only see things clearly but also appreciate beautiful scenes better.Anyway,only when we form a good habit of protecting eyes,such as doing regular eye-exercises and reading in right light,can we really enjoy our life.
See well,live well.So don't hesitate to act at once!
Yours,
Li Hua

W:What's wrong?
M:I thought I'd be working as a cashier.You know,taking people's money and chatting to them.That would be much more interesting.But I didn't get the position.I complained to my boss about it and she got quite angry with me.She said I had a bad attitude and the reason why I'm organizing shelves is that I can learn where everything is from doing so.
W:I'm afraid I agree with her.What she said is very sensible and you have to prove yourself in a new job.You've just started it two weeks ago.You'd feel better in one or two more weeks.
M:So you're taking her side.
W:I just don't think you are being reasonable enough,so you will not do well there if you don't follow the arrangement and show some respect.
M:Maybe you're right,as everyone else seems to have a good relationship with her.What
should I do to make things better?
W:Why don't you say sorry to her when you go to work on Saturday and make a new start?I'm sure she'll give you a second thought chance.

M:Good morning everyone.I'm here today to tell you about the university's advisory service.I know that you've just arrived for a few days and you're probably not thinking about the kind of problems you may face while studying for your degree.But it's important to remember that you will go through ups and downs throughout your time here.Fortunately,you don't have to go through all those alone.At the advisory office,we have several trained advisors who can help you with a variety of problems.The office is open Monday to Friday 8:00 a.m.to 7:00 p.m.and on Saturday 9:00 a.m.to 12:00 p.m.If you need to talk to someone about study-related problems,you can make an appointment with Rodney Reid.If you're looking for a part-time job or a casual job,Jarrod Howard may help you.He can also help you with information about jobs related to your courses and the graduate programs run by the Government and large companies.If you want to discuss money matters,such as budgeting,you can turn to Jim Smith.If you have a problem that doesn't fit into any of the areas already mentioned,or a
personal problem,such as stress management,you can talk to Laura Lea.Check the notice boards or the advisory office for more information.
