My son has poliomyelitis (小儿麻痹)and he suffered from it a lot. When he was young, my wife and I took him to see so many doctors and got different kinds of treatments. But still, he couldn’t walk like a normal kid.
So he was laughed at by his peers for his walking style. His tears burnt our eyes like sulphuric acid (硫酸 ). Then, he became afraid of going to school. He wouldn’t go anymore.
One night, my wife had a breakdown and shouted at him, “I tell you, my kid, you might be like this forever. You are a freak in other people’s eyes, and perhaps it would never change. But in my eyes, in your dad’s eyes, you are not a freak! You are not! Even if you are, we love you and we will love you forever!” My son spoke nothing for two days. He didn’t eat or sleep. We could read he was hurt. We hoped something wonderful would fall in our family. On the third morning, he struggled to walk to my car, with his school bag in his hand of course. He raised his head high and hugged me, saying “want to go to school. Nothing will beat me.”
You know, from then on, he was never afraid of being mocked or despised anymore. If he couldn’t avoid these looks, he chose to look at them in the eyes. Later, something nice really happened and my son went to MIT. When he was asked how he managed to bear the pressure, he said, “Because of my parents.”
My dear fellows, if you care too much about how other people look at you or what their opinions are, you will never become what you want to be.

A serious problem for today’s society is who should be responsible for our elderly and how to improve their lives. It is not only a financial problem but also a question of the system we want for our society. I would like to suggest several possible solutions to this problem.
First, employers should take the responsibility for their retired employees. To make this possible, a percentage of profits should be set aside for this purpose. But when a company must take life-long responsibility for its employees, it may suffer from a commercial disadvantage due to higher employee costs.
Another way of solving the problem is to return the responsibility to the individual. This means each person must save during his working years to pay for his years of retirement. This does not seem a very fair model since some people have enough trouble paying for their daily life without trying to earn extra to cover their retirement years. This means the government might have to step in to care for the poor.
In addition, the government could take responsibility for the care of the elderly. This could be financed through government taxes to increase the level of pensions. Furthermore, some institutions should be created for senior citizens, which can help provide a comfortable life for them. Unfortunately, as the present situation in our country shows, this is not a truly viable answer. The government can seldom afford to care for the elderly, particularly when it is busy trying to care for the young.
One further solution is that the government or social organizations establish some working places especially for the elderly where they are independent.
To sum up, all these options have advantages and disadvantages. Therefore, it is reasonable to expect that some combination of these options may be needed to provide the care we hope to give to our elderly generations.
8. What is the writer’s main purpose in writing this article?
A. To discuss some possible solutions to an important social problem.
B. To make general readers aware of the problems of retired people.
C. To point out the need for government support for old people.
D. To instruct retired people on how they can have a happier life.
9. What does the underlined word “viable” most probably mean?
A. Impossible. B. Practical. C. Useful. D. Successful.
10. According to the passage, how can the government help to improve the lives of retired people?
A. Set aside some profits to help people with problems after they retire.
B. Increase savings levels of people during their working years.
C. Increase the discounts for food and transport for the old.
D. Make available pensions for those who have retired.
11. What can be concluded from the passage?
A. Taking care of the old is mainly an issue of money.
B. Employers should allow their workers to retire at a later age.
C. Becoming independent should be the goal of most old people.
D. There is no single solution to the problems of the old.
【答案】8. A 9. B 10. D 11. D
【解析】
【分析】
这是一篇议论文。这篇文章主要讨论解决老年人的问题的办法。文章提出四个解决办法，但是这些方法有利有弊。
【8题详解】
推理判断题。作者提出了老年人的问题，并提出了四个解决办法，总的看来，它们都有优缺点，结合使用就会有好的效果。由此可知，作者是讨论一个重要的社会问题的一些可能的解决方法。故选A。
【9题详解】
词义猜测题。上文提到政府应该承担照顾老年人的责任，根据本句话的意思以及其所在的语境可知，该词的意思是“实际的，可实行的”。句意：不幸的是，我们国家目前的状况表明，这不是一种真正可实行的解决方法。故选B。
【10题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段中的This could be financed through government taxes to increase the level of pensions.可知，通过政府的税收增加老人的抚恤金，以改善他们的生活。故选D。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。最后一段中的To sum up, all these options have advantages and disadvantages. Therefore, it is reasonable to expect that some combination of these options may be needed to provide the care we hope to give to our elderly generations说明上述的方法都有优缺点，所以单独一种方法并不能奏效，采用结合起来的方法会更好。故选D。
【点睛】阅读理解通常都会出现词义猜测题，要求考生从上下文理解中概括出生词或短语的词义。考生作此类题型时，首先要找到所猜测词所在文章的位置，然后在理解文章大意的基础之上，对此词前后句反复研读，最后根据前后句猜测出词义。例如小题2要求猜测出viable的含义，上文提到政府应该承担照顾老年人的责任，再根据Unfortunately, as the present situation in our country shows, this is not a truly viable answer.（不幸的是，我们国家目前的状况表明，这不是一种真正可实行的解决方法。），从而推测出viable为“实际的，可实行的”之意。

【分析】
本文是一篇说明文。中国是一个古老的大国，有五千多年的历史。我们为自己的文化感到骄傲，文化的一部分甚至对世界产生了巨大的影响。目前很多年轻人崇尚西方的文化，但是总有一天，他们会意识到放弃传统文化是错误的。
【41题详解】
考查形容词性物主代词。形容词性物主代词修饰名词，culture是名词，故答案为its。
【42题详解】
副词修饰动词。此处influence是动词，副词修饰动词，故答案为greatly。
【43题详解】
考查固定搭配。play a role/part in---，在---上扮演角色，此处important以元音音素开头，修饰名词role，故答案为an。
【44题详解】
考查名词复数。随着中国经济发展迅速，在世界上发挥着重要作用，越来越多的外国人在孔子学院学习普通话。此处用名词复数，故答案为foreigners。
【45题详解】
考查让步状语从句。此处kind（种类），是名词，所以这里是no matter what引导的让步状语从句，答案为what。
【46题详解】
考查固定搭配。今天，许多年轻人对传统文化失去了信心。lose faith in对---失去信心，故答案为faith。
【47题详解】
考查固定搭配。他们对西方文化疯狂。be crazy about对---疯狂，故答案为about。
【48题详解】
考查现在分词。他们遵循西方的时尚，认为我们是旧的风格。此处是现在分词做自然的结果状语，故答案为thinking。
【49题详解】
考查时态。但总有一天，他们会意识到放弃传统文化是错误的。根据someday,可知句子用一般将来时态，故答案为will realize。
【50题详解】
考查动词不定式。但总有一天，他们会意识到放弃传统文化是错误的。be wrong to do sth.错误地去做某事，故答案为to abandon。
【点睛】现在分词作伴随状语和现在分词作结果状语的区别：
1.伴随状语的位置是可以在句首或者是句末；其次,它所表示的动作时与谓语同时发生的,只不过谓语动词动作为主要动作,分词动作为次要动作。如：He walked home，singing a song.他唱着歌回家去了.
2.结果状语的位置通常只能在句末,表示谓语动作所产生的结果。
如：A terrible earthquake happened in China in 2008,causing thousands of deaths.2008年中国发生了一场大地震,造成了上万人死亡。
The teacher passed away,making all the students very sad.老师去世了,这使得所有学生非常难过。
第四部分 写作 （共两节，满分35分）
第一节 短文改错 (共10小题; 每小题1分, 满分10分)
51.假定英语课上老师要求同桌之间交换修改作文，请你修改你同桌写的以下作文。文中共有10处错误，每句中最多有两处。错误涉及一个单词的增加、删除或修改。
增加：在缺词处加一个漏字符号(Λ)，并在其下面写出该加的词。
删除：把多余的词用斜线(＼)划掉。
修改：在错的词下划一横线，并在该词下面写出修改后的词。
注意：1. 每处错误及其修改均仅限一词；
2. 只允许修改10处，多者(从第11处起)不计分。
Last month, I had a unpleasant holiday. Having visited the Australian mainland before, I planned to going to the Solomon Islands. With my disappointment, the guide cut my holiday shortly by 2 days. He also sent me to the same places I had visited them the year before. In addition, the holiday I go on included none of the activities mentioned in the travel plan. To make matters bad, I had to share a double room with someone I did not know, despite the fact I had paid for a single room. Last but not least, my luggages arrived a week late because of the delay causes by the travel agency.
【答案】①a错误，改为an
②going错误，改为go
③With错误，改为To
④shortly错误，改为short
⑤去掉them
⑥go 错误，改为went
⑦bad错误，改为worse
⑧fact后加that
⑨luggages错误，改为luggage
⑩causes错误，改为caused
【解析】
【分析】
本文是一篇记叙文。作者介绍自己一次不愉快的假日旅行。
【详解】1.考查不定冠词。单词unpleasant是以元音因素开头，用an表示“一”，故把a改为an。
2.固定搭配。plan to do sth.计划做某事，故把going改为go。
3.考查固定词组。to one’s disappointment使某人失望的是，故把with改为To。
4.考查固定词组。cut short缩短，缩减，故把shortly改为short。
5.考查定语从句。句意：他还把我送到了我去年去过的地方。此处places是先行词，在后面的定语从句中做宾语，所以定语从句中不能出现宾语，故把them去掉。
6.考查时态。根据上文的Last month，说明句子用一般过去时态，故把go 改为went。
7.考查固定结构。To make matters worse使事情更糟糕的是，故把bad改成worse。
8.考查同位语从句。句意：我不知道，尽管我已经付了一间单人房的钱。the fact后面的I had paid for a single room.是fact的具体内容，所以在fact后加that引出同位语从句。
9.考查不可数名词。此处luggage（行李）是不可数名词，没有复数形式，故把luggages改为luggage。
10.考查过去分词做后置定语。句意：最后但并非最不重要的是，由于旅行社的延误，我的行李晚了一个星期。此处delay 和cause之间是被动关系，所以是过去分词做后置定语，故把causes改为caused。
第二节 书面表达（满分25分）

Dear friends,
In recent years, many of us have spent a lot of time on the Internet with its popularity. 【答案】Dear friends,
In recent years, many of us spend a lot of time on the Internet with its popularity. As a result, we don't write as well as we did in the past. In order to protect our Chinese characters and improve our handwriting, we'd like to offer some suggestions:
We should spend less time online so that we can have more time to read books. We'd better form the habit if keeping diaries every day to practice handwriting. Besides, it is better to write letters to our relatives and friends by hand rather than sent e-mails. Beautiful and neat handwriting is beneficial to us students. So please pay more attention to our handwriting in the future.
Let's take action now!
Student’s Union

My son has poliomyelitis (小儿麻痹)and he suffered from it a lot. When he was young, my wife and I took him to see so many doctors and got different kinds of treatments. But still, he couldn’t walk like a normal kid.
So he was laughed at by his peers for his walking style. His tears burnt our eyes like sulphuric acid (硫酸 ). Then, he became afraid of going to school. He wouldn’t go anymore.
One night, my wife had a breakdown and shouted at him, “I tell you, my kid, you might be like this forever. You are a freak in other people’s eyes, and perhaps it would never change. But in my eyes, in your dad’s eyes, you are not a freak! You are not! Even if you are, we love you and we will love you forever!” My son spoke nothing for two days. He didn’t eat or sleep. We could read he was hurt. We hoped something wonderful would fall in our family. On the third morning, he struggled to walk to my car, with his school bag in his hand of course. He raised his head high and hugged me, saying “want to go to school. Nothing will beat me.”
You know, from then on, he was never afraid of being mocked or despised anymore. If he couldn’t avoid these looks, he chose to look at them in the eyes. Later, something nice really happened and my son went to MIT. When he was asked how he managed to bear the pressure, he said, “Because of my parents.”
My dear fellows, if you care too much about how other people look at you or what their opinions are, you will never become what you want to be.

A serious problem for today’s society is who should be responsible for our elderly and how to improve their lives. It is not only a financial problem but also a question of the system we want for our society. I would like to suggest several possible solutions to this problem.
First, employers should take the responsibility for their retired employees. To make this possible, a percentage of profits should be set aside for this purpose. But when a company must take life-long responsibility for its employees, it may suffer from a commercial disadvantage due to higher employee costs.
Another way of solving the problem is to return the responsibility to the individual. This means each person must save during his working years to pay for his years of retirement. This does not seem a very fair model since some people have enough trouble paying for their daily life without trying to earn extra to cover their retirement years. This means the government might have to step in to care for the poor.
In addition, the government could take responsibility for the care of the elderly. This could be financed through government taxes to increase the level of pensions. Furthermore, some institutions should be created for senior citizens, which can help provide a comfortable life for them. Unfortunately, as the present situation in our country shows, this is not a truly viable answer. The government can seldom afford to care for the elderly, particularly when it is busy trying to care for the young.
One further solution is that the government or social organizations establish some working places especially for the elderly where they are independent.
To sum up, all these options have advantages and disadvantages. Therefore, it is reasonable to expect that some combination of these options may be needed to provide the care we hope to give to our elderly generations.
8. What is the writer’s main purpose in writing this article?
A. To discuss some possible solutions to an important social problem.
B. To make general readers aware of the problems of retired people.
C. To point out the need for government support for old people.
D. To instruct retired people on how they can have a happier life.
9. What does the underlined word “viable” most probably mean?
A. Impossible. B. Practical. C. Useful. D. Successful.
10. According to the passage, how can the government help to improve the lives of retired people?
A. Set aside some profits to help people with problems after they retire.
B. Increase savings levels of people during their working years.
C. Increase the discounts for food and transport for the old.
D. Make available pensions for those who have retired.
11. What can be concluded from the passage?
A. Taking care of the old is mainly an issue of money.
B. Employers should allow their workers to retire at a later age.
C. Becoming independent should be the goal of most old people.
D. There is no single solution to the problems of the old.
【答案】8. A 9. B 10. D 11. D
【解析】
【分析】
这是一篇议论文。这篇文章主要讨论解决老年人的问题的办法。文章提出四个解决办法，但是这些方法有利有弊。
【8题详解】
推理判断题。作者提出了老年人的问题，并提出了四个解决办法，总的看来，它们都有优缺点，结合使用就会有好的效果。由此可知，作者是讨论一个重要的社会问题的一些可能的解决方法。故选A。
【9题详解】
词义猜测题。上文提到政府应该承担照顾老年人的责任，根据本句话的意思以及其所在的语境可知，该词的意思是“实际的，可实行的”。句意：不幸的是，我们国家目前的状况表明，这不是一种真正可实行的解决方法。故选B。
【10题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段中的This could be financed through government taxes to increase the level of pensions.可知，通过政府的税收增加老人的抚恤金，以改善他们的生活。故选D。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。最后一段中的To sum up, all these options have advantages and disadvantages. Therefore, it is reasonable to expect that some combination of these options may be needed to provide the care we hope to give to our elderly generations说明上述的方法都有优缺点，所以单独一种方法并不能奏效，采用结合起来的方法会更好。故选D。
【点睛】阅读理解通常都会出现词义猜测题，要求考生从上下文理解中概括出生词或短语的词义。考生作此类题型时，首先要找到所猜测词所在文章的位置，然后在理解文章大意的基础之上，对此词前后句反复研读，最后根据前后句猜测出词义。例如小题2要求猜测出viable的含义，上文提到政府应该承担照顾老年人的责任，再根据Unfortunately, as the present situation in our country shows, this is not a truly viable answer.（不幸的是，我们国家目前的状况表明，这不是一种真正可实行的解决方法。），从而推测出viable为“实际的，可实行的”之意。

【分析】
本文是一篇说明文。中国是一个古老的大国，有五千多年的历史。我们为自己的文化感到骄傲，文化的一部分甚至对世界产生了巨大的影响。目前很多年轻人崇尚西方的文化，但是总有一天，他们会意识到放弃传统文化是错误的。
【41题详解】
考查形容词性物主代词。形容词性物主代词修饰名词，culture是名词，故答案为its。
【42题详解】
副词修饰动词。此处influence是动词，副词修饰动词，故答案为greatly。
【43题详解】
考查固定搭配。play a role/part in---，在---上扮演角色，此处important以元音音素开头，修饰名词role，故答案为an。
【44题详解】
考查名词复数。随着中国经济发展迅速，在世界上发挥着重要作用，越来越多的外国人在孔子学院学习普通话。此处用名词复数，故答案为foreigners。
【45题详解】
考查让步状语从句。此处kind（种类），是名词，所以这里是no matter what引导的让步状语从句，答案为what。
【46题详解】
考查固定搭配。今天，许多年轻人对传统文化失去了信心。lose faith in对---失去信心，故答案为faith。
【47题详解】
考查固定搭配。他们对西方文化疯狂。be crazy about对---疯狂，故答案为about。
【48题详解】
考查现在分词。他们遵循西方的时尚，认为我们是旧的风格。此处是现在分词做自然的结果状语，故答案为thinking。
【49题详解】
考查时态。但总有一天，他们会意识到放弃传统文化是错误的。根据someday,可知句子用一般将来时态，故答案为will realize。
【50题详解】
考查动词不定式。但总有一天，他们会意识到放弃传统文化是错误的。be wrong to do sth.错误地去做某事，故答案为to abandon。
【点睛】现在分词作伴随状语和现在分词作结果状语的区别：
1.伴随状语的位置是可以在句首或者是句末；其次,它所表示的动作时与谓语同时发生的,只不过谓语动词动作为主要动作,分词动作为次要动作。如：He walked home，singing a song.他唱着歌回家去了.
2.结果状语的位置通常只能在句末,表示谓语动作所产生的结果。
如：A terrible earthquake happened in China in 2008,causing thousands of deaths.2008年中国发生了一场大地震,造成了上万人死亡。
The teacher passed away,making all the students very sad.老师去世了,这使得所有学生非常难过。

Last month, I had a unpleasant holiday. Having visited the Australian mainland before, I planned to going to the Solomon Islands. With my disappointment, the guide cut my holiday shortly by 2 days. He also sent me to the same places I had visited them the year before. In addition, the holiday I go on included none of the activities mentioned in the travel plan. To make matters bad, I had to share a double room with someone I did not know, despite the fact I had paid for a single room. Last but not least, my luggages arrived a week late because of the delay causes by the travel agency.
【答案】①a错误，改为an
②going错误，改为go
③With错误，改为To
④shortly错误，改为short
⑤去掉them
⑥go 错误，改为went
⑦bad错误，改为worse
⑧fact后加that
⑨luggages错误，改为luggage
⑩causes错误，改为caused
【解析】
【分析】
本文是一篇记叙文。作者介绍自己一次不愉快的假日旅行。
【详解】1.考查不定冠词。单词unpleasant是以元音因素开头，用an表示“一”，故把a改为an。
2.固定搭配。plan to do sth.计划做某事，故把going改为go。
3.考查固定词组。to one’s disappointment使某人失望的是，故把with改为To。
4.考查固定词组。cut short缩短，缩减，故把shortly改为short。
5.考查定语从句。句意：他还把我送到了我去年去过的地方。此处places是先行词，在后面的定语从句中做宾语，所以定语从句中不能出现宾语，故把them去掉。
6.考查时态。根据上文的Last month，说明句子用一般过去时态，故把go 改为went。
7.考查固定结构。To make matters worse使事情更糟糕的是，故把bad改成worse。
8.考查同位语从句。句意：我不知道，尽管我已经付了一间单人房的钱。the fact后面的I had paid for a single room.是fact的具体内容，所以在fact后加that引出同位语从句。
9.考查不可数名词。此处luggage（行李）是不可数名词，没有复数形式，故把luggages改为luggage。
10.考查过去分词做后置定语。句意：最后但并非最不重要的是，由于旅行社的延误，我的行李晚了一个星期。此处delay 和cause之间是被动关系，所以是过去分词做后置定语，故把causes改为caused。
第二节 书面表达（满分25分）

Dear friends,
In recent years, many of us have spent a lot of time on the Internet with its popularity. 【答案】Dear friends,
In recent years, many of us spend a lot of time on the Internet with its popularity. As a result, we don't write as well as we did in the past. In order to protect our Chinese characters and improve our handwriting, we'd like to offer some suggestions:
We should spend less time online so that we can have more time to read books. We'd better form the habit if keeping diaries every day to practice handwriting. Besides, it is better to write letters to our relatives and friends by hand rather than sent e-mails. Beautiful and neat handwriting is beneficial to us students. So please pay more attention to our handwriting in the future.
Let's take action now!
Student’s Union
