I started to learn English from the first grade. That year I was six. In class I learned basic phrases for greeting and describing objects. I don't have much memory for the first year of English learning. The only thing that I still remember is reading vocabulary list. A classmate of mine who was good at English would lead the whole class to read the list. One of the new words that I learned that year was “earth”. “The earth orbits the sun，” he said in Chinese. Every time we came to the word “earth”， he would repeat that sentence. I was secretly admiring him because he knew the earth orbits the sun.
My family moved when I was in my second grade, and I transferred (转学) to a private school. My English class continued. Luckily I could use the same series of textbooks.
I stayed in the same private school for my junior high school, which is from the 7th to the 9th grade. In junior high school, I hardly felt my English skill improved because the first English class here was still titled “Good Morning” and the content was still basic greetings.
Following was one year of high school life: a different school, the same story.
Then my family moved again, and I began to really use English. We came to America. I attended a couple years of high school, and now I'm in college. I learn to write essays and start to read books in English. I can see my progress. However, I still have a lot of space to improve. In writing, the flow between sentences isn't good and I'm still using basic words. In speaking, maybe because I hang out with Chinese speaking friends too much, it takes me time to think when telling long stories.
【解题导语】　本文介绍了作者从小学中学到大学几个阶段，不同环境下在英语学习方面的一些经历及感悟。
24．In Grade One, the author admired that classmate because he .
A．could speak two languages
B．had a very wide vocabulary
C．often led the whole class to read

25．How did the author most probably feel during the first English class in junior high school?
A．Moved.　　　　　 B．Interested.
C．Disappointed. D．Relaxed.
解析：选C　推理判断题。根据第三段的“In junior high school ...still basic greetings.”可推断，作者当时很失望。
26．What do we learn about the author now?
A．She is looked down upon by others.
B．She still isn't very fluent in English.
C．She has no chance to speak Chinese now.
D．She likes practicing English through telling long stories.

C
Though in a digital age, college students nowadays are still holding fast to traditional books. According to the National Association of College Stores, digital books make up just under 3% of textbook sales, although the association expects that share to grow to 10% to 15% by 2014 as more titles are made available as e­books. However, three­quarters of the students, who grew up learning from print books, say that they are unwilling to give up the ability to turn over quickly between chapters, write in the edges and highlight passages.
The new technology has produced various options for students. College Booksellers, which operates 636 campus bookstores nationwide, is now marketing its new software application, which allows students to read e­textbooks on PCs. The company introduced the free application last summer in hopes of attracting more students to buy its electronic textbooks. “Now the biggest barrier is getting them to try it，” said the company's vice president.
But not every textbook is available in digital or rental format. Generally, an e­textbook is cheaper than a used book, though more expensive than a rental. The expense of college textbooks has become a great concern and teachers from over 40 colleges nationwide are encouraged to assign texts that are less expensive, or to offer them free online. As the buy­back price drops greatly and quickly, some professors suggest that the book stores should not have the last say and there should be something for students to decide by themselves.
【解题导语】　本文为一篇说明文。虽然现在已经进入数字时代，但大多数大学生仍然钟爱传统纸质书籍。
28．College students prefer traditional books mainly because they .
A．want to keep the ability of reading print books
B．have the habit of turning over quickly between pages
C．find it interesting to keep notes in the edges of books
D．feel more relaxed to read print materials
解析：选A　细节理解题。根据第一段最后一句“由于从小就用纸质书籍学习，因此有四分之三的学生不愿放弃在章节间迅速翻动，在空白处写字，标注文章。”可知答案为A。
29．Which of the following is NOT true according to the 2nd paragraph?
A．College Booksellers operates more than 600 bookstores in campus.
B．The free application was introduced to increase sales of electronic textbooks.
C．Campus students now fancy a try of the free software application.
D．The company's management still has to do more to sell the e­books.
解析：选C　细节理解题。根据第二段最后一句中的“Now the biggest barrier is getting them to try it ...”可知在校学生并没有表示出对这款免费软件有所钟爱，故答案为C项。
30．We can learn from the passage that .
A．second­hand books are cheaper than rental books
B．all the textbooks have both the digital and rental formats
C．the price totally determines the student's selection of books
D．the price of buy­back books is determined by book stores
解析：选D　推理判断题。根据文章最后一句“随着回购价的急剧下降，一些教授建议对于图书回购价书店不应该有最后的定价权，回购价应该由学生自己决定。”可见目前图书回购价格是由书店决定的。
31．The best title for the text would be .
A．Addiction to Traditional Books
B．Print Books in a Digital World
C．More Texts in Digital Format
D．Book Price Drops Sharply and Quickly
解析：选B　标题归纳题。文章是以数字时代纸质书籍在学生中的地位为线索展开的，故本篇文章的题目为：数字世界的纸质书籍。
D
People who smoke could lose around one third of their everyday memory, researchers say.
A study by a team at Northumbria University has shown that smokers lose more of their memory when compared to non­smokers. And the research also found that those who kicked the habit saw their ability to recollect information restored to almost the same level as non­smokers. The study involved more than seventy 18­to­25­year­olds and included a tour of the university's campus.
Those who took part were asked to recall small details, such as music acts listed to play at the students' union and tasks completed at various points—known as real world memory test. Smokers performed badly, remembering just 59 percent of tasks. But those who had given up smoking remembered 74 percent and those who had never smoked recalled 81 percent of tasks.
Dr. Tom Heffernan, who leads Northumbria University's Collaboration for Drug and Alcohol Research Group, said the findings would be useful in anti­smoking campaigns. He said：“Given that there are up to 10 million smokers in the UK and as many 45 million in the United States, it's important to understand the effects smoking has on everyday cognitive function—of which prospective memory is an excellent example.”
“This is the first time that a study has set out to examine whether giving up smoking has impact on memory. We already know that giving up smoking has huge health benefits for the body, but this study also shows how stopping smoking can have knock­on benefits for cognitive functions too.”
The research will now investigate the effects of passive smoking on memory, while Dr. Heffernan and Dr. Terence O'Neill will look into the effects of third­hand smoking—toxins (毒素) left on curtains and furniture.
【解题导语】　本文是说明文。研究人员称，吸烟者会比不吸烟者多丧失约1/3的日常记忆。
32．What does the passage mainly talk about?
A．Smoking does harm to health.
B．Smoking can affect one's memory.
C．Smokers take a tour to the university's campus.
D．Smokers are compared to non­smokers.
解析：选B　主旨大意题。文章第一句是主题句，即“研究人员称，吸烟者会丧失约1/3的日常记忆。”由此可见，本文讲的是吸烟对记忆力的影响。
33．When asked to recall small details, .
A．smokers performed very well
B．non­smokers could recall about half of them
C．smokers did the worst among the participants
D．those who gave up smoking did best
解析：选C　细节理解题。第三段中提到，研究人员请那些参与者回忆一些细节，那些吸烟者表现很差，只记得59%的任务。但那些戒烟者记得74%的任务，从未吸过烟的人记得81%的任务。即吸烟者表现最差。
34．According to Dr. Tom Heffernan, the findings .
A．would contribute to fighting against smoking
B．would be really a surprise to the public
C．would be used in real world memory test
D．would be nothing new to the researchers
解析：选A　细节理解题。第四段中提到，Tom Heffernan博士说这些研究发现将有助于反吸烟活动的开展。
35．What does the underlined word “impact” in Paragraph 5 most probably mean?
A．Effect. B．Impression.
C．Expression. D．Order.
解析：选A　词义猜测题。根据主语whether giving up smoking和宾语memory可知，画线词语的意思应为“影响”。

One of my earliest memories was watching my mom talk on our old phone.I was fascinated that she could talk to someone who wasn't actually in the room with her.
36 I was wondering how she managed to talk with someone she couldn't see.
37 Later，we had mobile phones that could be carried around the room.Then came computers and smart phones.These days I can send an e­mail around the world in a second.My daughter's smart phone has a hundred apps and a dozen social media accounts.She stores all of her information in a mysterious place known as“the cloud”，where she can take it out at any time.It seems that we are more connected in this world than ever before.
38 Few take the time to talk face to face.Instead of looking into the eyes of our loved ones，we stare at our screens.It seems as if the most connected generations are also the loneliest.
Don't let technology take our time and ruin our life.Make the time to meet，to pray and to communicate with each other.Take a walk on the beach with a friend.Have a long conversation with the phones off and the hearts on. 39
Remember that we are here to love each other，help each other and make this world a better place. 40 But when it can't，turn it off.
A．That was a long time ago.
B．Connect offline as well as online.
C．Smart phones have both advantages and disadvantages.
D．We should communicate with each other with phones off.
E．When your technology can help to do these things，then use it.
F．However，what bothers me is that we rarely associate with each other nowadays.
G．When she left the room，I slowly walked over to the phone and stared at it for a while.

39．解析：选B　根据上文可知，作者认为不能让科技占据我们太多的时间，摧毁我们的生活，我们应该花时间互相见面交流。故B项“既要在网上联系也要在网络之外联系。”符合文意，故选B项。
40．解析：选E　空处前一句提到我们来到这个世界是为了相互关爱，相互帮助，使世界变得更美好；后一句提到当科技不能(帮助你)做到这些时，就关掉它。所以空处应表示当科技能够帮助你做到这些时就使用它，故选E项。

【解题导语】　本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了如何让家更安全。
61．解析：考查非谓语动词。固定搭配wait to do sth.意为“等着做某事”，故填to happen。
答案：to happen
62．解析：考查介词。固定搭配look after意为“照看”，与“while their parents go away”呼应。
答案：after
63．解析：考查冠词。break意为“休息”，是可数名词，此处表泛指，故用不定冠词修饰。
答案：a
64．解析：考查副词。修饰形容词应用副词，故用副词totally修饰形容词OK，在句子中作状语。
答案：totally
65．解析：考查名词单复数。surprise此处意为“意想不到的事”，是可数名词，且被a few修饰，故用复数形式。
答案：surprises
66．解析：考查定语从句。此处为非限制性定语从句，先行词为the spare bedroom, in which＝where。
答案：which
67．解析：考查时态。in case引导的状语从句中，从句用虚拟语气，常用“should ＋ do”的形式；也可以不用虚拟语气，主从句时态一致，故用tries。
答案：tries/should try
68．解析：考查代词。空处作谓语动词find的宾语，因此应用宾格形式。
答案：them
69．解析：考查形容词。修饰名词应用形容词，故用形容词dangerous在句子中作定语，与the most呼应。
答案：dangerous
70．解析：考查被动语态。句子主语Knives与keep之间构成动宾关系，故用被动语态be kept。
答案：be kept

Recently, our class have had a discussion about whether it is necessary for parents to rent a house to company their children near the school.






One possible version：
Recently, our class have had a discussion about whether it is necessary for parents to rent a house to company their children near the school.
35% of my classmates support the idea. They say they'd rather live in such a house because the conditions and the environment there are much better, which they think is very necessary, for their studies. However, 65% of the students don't think it a good idea. In their opinion, it is a waste of money and parents' energy. Besides, the parents' company may make the children feel more nervous.
Since every coin has its two sides, I think everyone should consider their own personal situation before they decide whether they need to rent a house and their parents' company.
