五、完形填空（共10小题；共15分）

       Many people go to school for education. They learn languages, history, math and     46     subjects. Others go to school to learn skills to make a living. School education is very important and useful. Yet, no one can learn     47     from school. Even a very good teacher can't teach his students everything they want to know. The teacher's job is to show his students how     48    . He teaches them how to read and how to think. So, many things will be learned     49     school by the students themselves.

        It is always     50     to know how to study by students themselves than to remember some formulas (公式). It is very easy to learn a formula in math, but it is hard to use a formula in     51     a math problem. Great scientists     52     us didn't get everything from school. Their teachers only showed them the way. Edison didn't     53    finish primary school, but he was so successful. He invented so many things for human beings.

        They were successful     54     they knew how to study. They read books that were not taught at school. They would ask many questions as they read. They did     55     experiments (实验). They worked hard all their lives and never wasted time. The most important thing was that they knew how to use their brain.

Dear Jenny,

    How's it going? Are you busy with your study these days? I'm back at school for nearly four weeks.

    I'm very happy to tell you about great changes taking place in our school this term. First of all, the school asks us to "clear our plates (光盘)" when having our meals and say no to wasting. Some of us used to (过去常常) buy more than what we could eat. That's a big waste of food. Now we need to finish the food we buy. We must also stop wasting in some other ways. For example, we need to turn off the lights when we leave the classroom. And our school opens up some fields for us to learn how to grow vegetables. Each class has a small garden and our class decides to grow some tomatoes and beans(豆类) in our free time. I think that'll be very interesting. Maybe I can send you some beans we grow next time. What's more, we have only two classes in the afternoon so we have more time for after-school activities(活动). After school, we often go to the streets near our school and ask people to follow the traffic rules (交通规则).

    I think we are having a different school life now! Please write back soon and tell me more about your school.

Yours,

Wang Wei   

56. The activity "clear our plates" helps the students                 .

 A. to study better at school B. to grow vegetables

57. Which one doesn't belong to (属于) the topic of this activity?

 A. Do the dishes. B. Finish the food you buy.

 C. Turn off the lights. D. Buy less food than before.

58. Wang Wei thinks that                  is very interesting.

 A. finishing the food he buys

 B. growing vegetables in the garden of his class

 C. sending some beans to his friend

 D. helping people follow the traffic rules

59. Wang Wei mainly tells Jenny about                  in his letter.

 A. the food in his school B. the garden of his class

 C. his after-school activities D. great changes in his school

B

    Today men have reached the top of the world's highest mountains. But for many, many years, even people living among the mountains did not climb them. Indeed, people believed that men could not climb mountains.

    For a long time, mountains were thought to be the home of evil(凶恶的) spirits. People believed dragons lived on the mountainsides. They thought these dragons would gobble up anyone coming near.

    When men began to climb mountains, the air high on a mountain was very, very cold. The climber could fall into deep cracks(裂缝). Strong winds and terrible storms could sweep a man off the mountainside.

    At first, men did not have proper things to climb high mountains. They did not have ice axes(斧), ropes or the right kind of clothing.

    Later, men could not reach the top of the highest peaks(山峰) for another reason. As a man climbed higher, the air became thinner. There was less O2 to breathe(呼吸). Above 18,000 feet, a climber had to stop every few steps to catch his breath. His heart beat faster and his blood became thicker. Above 25,000, a climber would begin to see things that were not here. He could no longer think clearly about what he had to do.

60. This passage mainly tells us about            .

 A. the dangers of climbing high mountains

 B. people living in mountains

 C. the evil spirits and dragons living on mountains

 D. the proper equipment needed to climb mountains

61. It's difficult for men to get to the top of the highest peaks mainly because           .

 A. they are not tall enough

 B. they can't breathe easily there

 C. they are afraid of spirits and dragons

 D. they are sure to fall into cracks

62. In the second paragraph, the underlined word “gobble up” means           .

 A. eat up very fast B. play with

 C. get out of D. argue with

C

    My house is made out of wood, glass and stone. It is also made out of software.

    If you come to visit, you'll probably be surprised when you come in. Someone will give you an electronic PIN(个人身份号码) to wear. This PIN tells the house who and where you are. The house uses this information to give you what you need. When it's dark outside, the PIN turns on the lights nearest you, and then turns them off as you walk away from them. Music moves with you too. If the house knows your favourite music, it plays it. The music seems to be everywhere, but in fact other people in the house hear different music or no music. If you get a telephone call, only the nearest telephone rings.

    Of course, you are also able to tell the house if you want something. There is a home control console (控制台), a small machine that turns things on and off around you.

    The PIN and the console are new ideas, but they are in fact like many things we have today. If you want to go to a movie, you need a ticket. If I give you my car keys, you can use my car. The car works for you because you have the keys. My house works for you because you wear the PIN or hold the console.

    I believe that ten years from now, most new homes will have the systems that I've put in my house. The systems will probably be even bigger and better than the ones I've put in today.

    I like to try new ideas. I know that some of my ideas will work better than others. But I hope that one day I will stop thinking of these systems as new, and ask myself instead, “How will I live without them?''

63.  What does the passage mainly discuss?

 A. How to develop a new system B. The function of the PIN

 C. A home for the future D. Easy life for the future

64.  What's the purpose when the writer wrote the fourth paragraph?

 A. To let readers know why his ideas are new

 B. To let readers know how special his house is

 C. To explain the importance of the PIN and the console

 D. To explain more easily what the functions of the PIN and the console are

65. The writer's new house is different from ordinary ones mainly because         .

 A. it has been controlled by computers

 B. you can make a telephone call anywhere

 C. it has your favourite music following you

 D. the writer is able to change his new idea into practice

66.  What is we writer most likely to be according to the passage?

 A. An IT expert(专家) B. A famous doctor

 C. A hard-working professor D. A well-known teacher

D

Students and Technology in the Classroom

    I love my blackberry(黑莓手机)—it's my little connection to the larger world that can go anywhere with me. I also love my laptop computer, as it holds all of my writing and thoughts. Although I love the technology, I know that there are times when I need to move away from these devices(设备) and truly communicate with others.

    On one occasion, I teach a course called History Matters for a group of higher education managers. My goals for the class include a full discussion of historical themes and ideas. Because I want students to thoroughly study the material and exchange their ideas with each other in the classroom, I have a rule—no laptops, IPads, phones, etc. When students were told my rule in advance of the class, some of them were not happy.

    Most students think that my reasons for this rule include unpleasant experiences in the past with students misusing technology. There's a bit of truth to that. Some students think that I am anti-technology. There's no truth in that at all. I love technology and try to keep up with it so I can relate to my students.

    The real reason why I ask students to leave technology at the door is that I think there are very few places in which we can have deep conversations and engage complex ideas. Interruptions by technology often break concentration(专心) and allow for too much dependence on outside information for ideas. I want students to dig deep within themselves for inspiration and ideas. I want them to push each other to think differently and make connections between the course material and the class discussion.

    I've been teaching my history class in this way for many years and the evaluations reflect student satisfaction with the environment that I create. Students realize that with deep conversation and challenge, they learn at a level that helps them keep the course material beyond the classroom.

    I'm not saying that I won't ever change my mind about technology use in my history class, but until I hear a really good reason for the change, I'm sticking to my plan. A few hours of technology-free dialogue is just too sweet to give up.

67. Some of the students in the history class were unhappy with           .

 A. the course material B. the author's class rules

 C. discussion topics D. others' misuse of technology

68. According to the author, the use of technology in the classroom may          .

 A. encourage students to have deep conversations

 B. keep students from doing independent thinking

 C. help students to better understand difficult themes

 D. affect students' concentration on the teacher's ideas

69. It can be inferred from the last paragraph that the author           .

 A. values technology-free dialogues in his class

 B. will give up teaching history

 C. will change his teaching plan soon

 D. is quite stubborn in teaching

七、短文6选4（共4小题；共8分）

Car Pool (拼车)

"Beep, Beep," goes the car horn(喇叭). You've got dressed, but you've not had time to eat breakfast. You run out of the front door with your schoolbag, and jump into the waiting car. Inside, your friends say "hey" as one of their parents drives you to school. 70.                

    Car pools are a common way of transport for many students in the US. You, along with many of your friends, can sit in one car. 71.                 And your parents may take turns to drive you all to school.

    72.                 If you're late, you can eat that breakfast you don't have time for at home. If you're behind on your homework, this is your last chance to finish it before class. Some simply add to their sleep time before classes begin.

    Besides walking or cycling to class, car pools are green if you can't take the school bus. Instead of four cars taking four students to school each day, they can all squeeze into one. 73.                

More importantly, car pooling teaches students valuable life lessons not taught in class. It can teach students about being on time. It can also teach them the bad influence of being late. If you're late, then all of your friends will be late too.

 A. What do friends do in the car?

 B. This is the daily car pool to school.

 C. Of course, it's better to take the school bus.

 D. Why is car pool so popular in the USA?

 E. Think of how much oil that can save!

 F. You share the journey to school each day.

八、阅读与表达(问答式)（共5小题；共10分）

    Language is always changing and developing. This isn't a bad thing. If English hadn't changed for a long time, we won't have words to describe telephones, washing machines, computers or some other new things.

    Language changes for several reasons. First, it changes because the needs of its speaker change. New technologies, new products, and new experiences need new words to express them clearly. Another reason for change is that different people have different language experiences. People use different sets of words and expressions, because they have different ages, jobs, education levels(水平) and so on.

How does language develop then? On the one hand, many of the languages changes begin with young people. When young people communicate with others of their own age, their language grows in grammar, words and expressions that are different from the older people's. Some have a short lifetime but others can influence the language for long. On the other hand, we get new words in many different ways. We borrow them from other languages, we create them by making words shorter or combining words and we make them out of proper names.

Languages that don't change over time are considered dead languages. The fact that English changes so much shows that it is alive and well.

 根据短文内容，完成下列小题。

74. What does the writer think of the change and development of language?

He thinks it is                 .

75. Why do people use different sets of words and expressions according to the passage?

Because their                  and education levels are different.

76. How many reasons for language change are mentioned in this passage?

The writer mentions                  reasons.

77. How do young people help develop language?

They do it when they                  others of their own age.

78. What is considered a dead language according to the passage?

The one that                  over time is considered a dead language.
