The eyeliner makes the dark circles less pronounced. The lipstick hides the trembling. The ponytail(马尾辫) masks missing patches of hair. I might look a bit thinner, but everyone will ask about my new diet. One hour of preparation and I look like myself. One hour out of 24. Sometimes I wonder if it's worth it — wasting a twenty-fourth of my day on a lie.
Checking my makeup one last time, I slip on a cute pair of flats—heels are too dangerous with shaky legs—and grab my Hollister bag. Walking downstairs, I breathe in the sweet smell of waffles and juice.
“Morning, Mom,” I call.
“Morning, baby,” she sings. “Did you sleep well?”
“Better than I have been.”
She sighs, and her eyes look a hundred years old for a minute. “Any improvement is good,” she says half-heartedly.
“Of course.”
“I made waffles.”
“Thanks, Mom. Smells delicious.”
I sit at the table and she hands me a plate. The thought of all that food turns my stomach, but I force a smile and thank my mother again. She busies herself at the sink and fills the silence with chatter. When she turns around, she takes in the waffles still on my plate, only missing a few bites. I smile apologetically.
“I'm not very hungry this morning.”
“You'll need your strength for this afternoon. Morrison will wait for you.” She bites her lip.
“I packed your lunch.”
“I'm 18, Mom. I can pack my own lunch. You have more important things to do.”
She reaches for the paper bag. “But now I know you'll have something to eat. And you need to eat, okay? You have to keep your strength up.”
Sighing, I take the bag. I know this peanut butter and jelly sandwich won't be eaten, not any more than the one yesterday or the day before. And even if I do eat it, I'll just throw it up later.
“Honey, have you thought about what I said the other day?” she asks.
I remain silent.
“Sweetheart, you can't hide the secret forever. Eventually you're going to miss school and people will start asking questions.”
“Mom, I have two months left of high school. I can make it till then. I'm class president. I was voted ‘Most popular’, ‘Best smile’ and ‘Most likely to succeed’. I'm the girl who's got it all together. People don't want to know that the girl who's got it all together doesn't have it all together. People don't want to know that girl is to be parted!”
“Honey, don't say that. You're not...”
“Yes, I am. You heard Dr. Morrison. I have maybe a year left. But that means I can graduate and then never see those people again. I'll depart and they'll feel sorry for me, but at least I won't have to tolerate their pity.”
“But...” she tries to interrupt.
“Mom, listen to me. I don't want to be the girl everyone looks at and whispers, ‘Look at her. Poor thing. She has cancer.’ I can't handle that. I want to be normal. Just for these last two months.”
“Okay,” she whispers. “Okay. Just remember, it's okay if you don't have it all together. Sometimes things just fall apart and there's nothing we can do.”
“Thanks, Mom.” I grab bag and lunch and kiss her on the cheek. “__①__”
“__②__” she replies. This exchange, once taken for granted, is now a vital part of every morning, every afternoon, and every night. Three little words, followed by four more, have come to mean more than an entire conversation. They bridge all gaps and disagreements, because we both know there is now a restricted number left.
Keys in hand, I open the door and blink(眨眼) in the early morning sun. Perfect.
24. The underlined word “half-heartedly” implies ____.
A. the mom is worried about her daughter's mood
B. the mom believes her daughter slept well last night
C. the mom is too busy doing her housework at that time
D. the mom knows there is no improvement in her daughter's health

B. “Take care, Mom.”; “You too, my angel.”
C. “I love you.”; “I love you, too.”

High levels of chocolate consumption might be associated with a one third reduction in the risk of developing heart disease, suggests a study published online in the British Medical Journal. The findings confirm results of existing studies that generally agree on a potential beneficial link between chocolate consumption and heart health. However, the authors stress that further studies are needed to test whether chocolate actually causes this reduction or if it can be explained by some other unmeasured factor.
The World Health Organization predicts that by 2030, nearly 23.6 million people will die from heart disease. However, lifestyle and diet are key factors in preventing heart disease, says the paper. A number of recent studies have shown that eating chocolate has a positive influence on human health, which includes reducing blood pressure and improving insulin sensitivity.
However, the evidence about how eating chocolate affects your heart still remains unclear. So, Dr Oscar Franco and colleagues from the University of Cambridge carried out a large scale review of the existing evidence to evaluate the effects of eating chocolate on cardiovascular(心血管)events like heart attack and stroke.
They analyzed the results of seven studies, involving over 100,000 participants with and without existing heart disease. For each study, they compared the group with the highest chocolate consumption against the group with the lowest consumption.
Five studies reported a beneficial link between higher levels of chocolate consumption and the risk of cardiovascular events. They found that the “highest levels of chocolate consumption were associated with a 37% reduction in cardiovascular disease and a 29% reduction in stroke compared with lowest levels.” No significant reduction was found in relation to heart failure.
The authors say the findings need to be interpreted with caution, in particular because commercially available chocolate is very calorific (around 500 calories for every 100 grams) and eating too much of it could lead to weight gain, risk of diabetes and heart disease.
However, they conclude that given the health benefits of eating chocolate, initiatives to reduce the current fat and sugar content in most chocolate products should be explored.
28. Which statement is NOT true according to the passage?
A. There used to be studies about the beneficial link between chocolate consumption and heart health.
B. Millions of people will die from heart disease by 2030 according to the WHO
C. There are still other factors that may reduce the risk of heart disease.
D. There is clear evidence about how eating chocolate affects your heart.
29. What are the possible causes of heart disease?
A. Unhealthy diet. B. Eating chocolate.
C. Exercising regularly. D. Drinking coffee.
30. What’s the authors’ attitude towards the findings?
A. Doubtful B. Cautious C. Disapproving D. Negative
31. If the author will go on writing, what is likely to be talked about?
A. We should eat less chocolate.
B. Chocolate benefits our health.
C. The ways to reduce the sugar and fat content in chocolate products.
D. When to eat chocolate is better for our health.
D
How many times do you check your Facebook page in a day to see whether your latest post has got another "like" or "thumbs（拇指） up"?
Although you might be embarrassed to admit how many times you do this, don't worry-psychological findings have shown it's completely normal. In fact, the pleasure we derive from receiving a "like" is equal to that of eating chocolate or winning money, and we can't help wanting more. According to the findings, which observed 32 teens aged between 13 and 18, the feedback circuit （反馈回路）in the teens' brains is particularly sensitive, and the "social" and "visual" parts of their brains were active when they received "likes" on the social network. The research also showed that though the thumbs up might come from complete strangers, the good they derive from them worked all the same.
So, does it mean we should try our best to win as many thumbs up as possible? Not necessarily so if we know the reasons behind our desire for attention. In "why do people long for attention" by M．Farouk Radwan, he explained several cases in which people naturally longed for attention. Radwan said people who were an only child, who were used to being the center of attention in their house, may try to copy these conditions. Feeling "overlooked and unappreciated" might also lead you to long for attention. Other times, the state of being jealous, or wanting to cover your mistakes may also contribute to such longings. In fact, too much desire for attention can create anxiety, and in turn ruin your happiness even when you get it. So what can we do about it? The answer is quite simple. "If people could adopt goals not focused on their own self-esteem（自尊）but on something larger than their self, such as what they can create or contribute to others, they would be less sensitive to some of the negative effects of pursuing self-esteem," wrote psychology professor Jennifer Crocker.
So perhaps the answer to our addiction to "likes" is simply to focus on something larger than ourselves-a hard, but a worthy one．
32. Which of the following is TRUE?
A. The thumbs up from complete strangers don't work.
B. Desire for attention can definitely create anxiety.
C. Feeling ignored might lead you to be in need of attention.
D. The brain of teenagers is seldom sensitive.
33. What's the reaction of receiving "likes" on the social network to the brain?
A. The social and visual parts become more nervous.
B. The social and visual parts of the brain are active.
C. The physical and sense parts of the brain become less sensitive.
D. The whole brain becomes cleverer.
34. Who wants to get more attention according to the passage?
A. The one who is the only child.
B. The old who lives happily with children.
C. The young who feels anxious.
D. Teens who want to discover their mistakes.
35. What's Crocker's suggestion about the negative effects of getting self-esteem?
A. Doing an interesting matter.
B. Working harder than ever before.
C. Having a bigger goal than their self.
D. Not checking your Facebook page in a day.

根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Imagine that you are in a remote village somewhere with no medical clinic. 36 Once the doctors get to you, they examine you and take blood samples, but they won’t be able to help you until they take the samples back to the hospital to find out what is wrong. 37 Thanks to engineer Andy Ozcan, many people may never be in this situation. He has invented an app that turns your mobile phone into a diagnostic（诊断的）tool.
Ozcan’s invention is important because it is very accurate and easy to use. In many remote places, even if doctors have microscopes and other instruments to help them make diagnoses, there may still be other problems. Many doctors, for example, don’t have enough training to correctly interpret what they see. 38 With Ozcan’s mobile phone app, health workers can take a special photo of a blood sample and send it to a central computer at a hospital. The computer will then automatically interpret the photo and send a diagnosis back in a few minutes.
39 His technology only requires a mobile phone and an Internet connection. As more than four billion people already have cell phones, the cost of establishing the diagnostic system is fairly low.
By inventing a medical tool that uses existing technology—mobile phones—Ozcan has developed a medical tool that is both practical and economical. Therefore, it can be used effectively almost anywhere. 40
A．Another reason that Ozcan’s invention is important is that it is inexpensive.
B．Even though you may only have a simple infection（感染）, you might die because of the delay.
C．People are trying to reduce the cost of this new medical tool.
D．Ozcan’s simple, cost-effective tool might just save millions of lives around the world.
E．This tool has become much more popular all around the world.
F．You become very sick and must wait days until a mobile medical unit arrives to help.
G．As a result, they may diagnose illnesses incorrectly.

第二节 书面表达 （满分25分）
Dear editor,
I'm writing to tell you about the discussion we have recently had about whether our parents should accompany us studying at school. We do have different opinions on this matter.
70% of us think our parents should not accompany us studying at school. First of all, it makes us fall into the habit of dependence, so that we won't form the good habit of studying. What's more, it is harmful for us to form the habit of controlling ourselves. At the same time, accompanying us studying at school affects our parents’ work, studies and rest.
However, about 30% of my classmates think it necessary for our parents to accompany us studying at school. Firstly, accompanying us studying at school can let us have more time to spare for our studies. Secondly, our parents can help us set up our aim, urge us to finish our task, encourage us to overcome difficulties and get us into the good habit of studying.
As far as I am concerned, it is unnecessary for parents to keep their children company in school. On one hand, living alone is a basic skill everyone should master. On the other hand, it can create room for children's growth and ensure their overall development.
Yours truly,
Li Hua
