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。
A
Are you worried about moving up to Senior High school? It can be a new experience, but you shouldn't worry. We've put together a guide on how to survive the first week.
You’re not alone!
Remember everybody else in your year is on the same boat. They may not realize it, but they’re just as nervous as you are. Moving to Senior High school is an opportunity, not a problem. Things are different and all you need to do is be polite and learn the new rules.
Teachers are ready to help!
If you’re unsure what to do or are worried about anything then you had better ask for help. Teachers are probably the best people to turn to as they’re experienced in helping new students. Some Senior High schools also have a “friends system”. If your school has this, then you will be paired with an older student. They will look out for you and help you if you have any problems or questions.
All change
There are lots of differences between Junior High school and Senior High school. You’ll have a homework diary or a student planner. You will have your lessons with different teachers in different rooms. You will have homework for different subjects on different days, so make sure you get organized. Make sure you have a copy of your school timetable written down so you know which rooms your classes are in and on which days you will have your different subjects.
Other points
If you’ve got an elder brother or sister at the school then ask them for advice.
Be yourself！It sounds simple，but people will know you much better if you just act naturally.
Having early nights makes a difference and you'll find it easier to get up in the morning!
21. Which of the following is closest in meaning to the underlined sentence?
A. Other students have similar feelings to yours.
B. Other students have to learn boating with you.
C. Other students will help you solve your problems.
D. Other students will teach you politeness and new rules.
22. Why do the new students turn to teachers first when having problems?
A. Because teachers won’t blame them as parents do.
B. Because teachers are good at helping solve problems.
C. Because teachers are equal to every student.
D. Because parents are too busy to help them.
23. What’s the purpose of the passage?
A. To tell students the importance of learning.
B. To make a difference when moving up to Senior High school.
C. To warn students not to ignore friendship in Senior High school.
D. To help new students to get used to the life in Senior High school.
B
“Have a nice day!” may be a pleasant gesture or a meaningless expression. When my friend Maxie says “Have a nice day” with a smile, I know she sincerely cares about what happens to me. I feel loved and secure since another person cares about me and wishes me well.
“Have a nice day. Next!” This version of the expression is spoken by a salesgirl at the supermarket who is rushing me and my groceries out the door. The words come out in the same tone (腔调) with a fixed procedure (步骤). They are spoken at me, not to me. Obviously, the concern for my day and everyone else’s is the management’s attempt to increase business.
The expression is one of those behaviors that help people get along with each other. Sometimes it shows the end of a meeting. As soon as you hear it, you know the meeting is at an end. Sometimes the expression saves us when we don't know what to say. “Oh, you may have a tooth out? I'm terribly sorry, but have a nice day.”
The expression can be pleasant. If a stranger says “Have a nice day” to you, you may find it heart-warming because someone you don't know has tried to be nice to you.
Although the use of the expression is an insincere, meaningless social custom at times, there is nothing wrong with the sentence except that it is a little uninteresting. The salesgirl, the waitress, the teacher, and all the countless others who speak it without thinking may not really care about my day. But in a strange and comfortable way, it's nice to know they care enough to pretend they care when they really don't care all that much. While the expression may not often be sincere, it is always spoken. The point is that people say it all the time when they like.
24. How does the author understand Maxie’s words?
A. Maxie shows her anxiety to the author.
B. Maxie really wishes the author a good day.
C. Maxie encourages the author to stay happy.
D. Maxie really worries about the author's safety.
25. What do we know about the salesgirl according to Paragraph 2?
A. The salesgirl is rude.
B. The salesgirl is annoyed.
C. The salesgirl cares about me.
D. The salesgirl says the words insincerely.
26. By saying “Have a nice day”, what may a stranger want to do?
A.Try to be polite to you.
B. Express respect to you.
C. Give his blessing to you.
D. Share his pleasure with you.
27. What do we know about “Have a nice day” according to the text?
A. Have a Nice Day is a social custom.
B. Have a Nice Day is a pleasant gesture.
C. Have a Nice Day is a heart-warming greeting.
D. Have a Nice Day is a polite ending of a conversation.
C
Physical education, or PE, isn’t required for all high school students. In some schools, it isn’t offered for some different reasons. But should high school students have physical education? The answer is certainly “yes”.
Today many people don’t do sports. But as is known to all, doing sports is very important for an adult. Teaching teens the importance of a healthy lifestyle and making fitness plans now can help teens put exercise in the first place as an adult.
High school isn’t that easy. Many students are under a lot of stress. Stress can be harmful to a student’s studies and life. Doing sports can help them deal with stress better, helping them live a happier life at school.
The American Heart Association says that 10 million kids and teens suffer from obesity (肥胖症). Teens should get 60 minutes of physical activity per day to control their weight and to help their bones get stronger. The increase in activities that don’t get teens to move around, such as video games and computer activities, means many teens don’t get their required exercise. PE classes act as a public health measure to encourage physical activities and help teens have healthy weights.
Not doing sports increases teens’ risk of developing many diseases. An active lifestyle offers a good way of protection from these health problems. As much as 75 percent of health-care spending goes toward treating medical conditions that can be hindered by lifestyle changes, according to the American College of Sports Medicine.
According to the President’s Council on Fitness, Sports and Nutrition (PCFSN), students who performed five hours of physical activity each week improved their academic (学业的) performance. Students from programs with no physical activity, who used the extra time for classroom study, did not perform better on tests than those who gave up some study time in support of physical education.
28. According to Paragraph 2, what does physical education in high school mean?
A. Making teens attach importance to exercise later.
B. Removing the stress faced by teens at school.
C. Getting teens to encourage adults to exercise.
D. Helping teens learn to make good plans.
29. What does the underlined word “hindered” in Paragraph 5 mean?
A. Measured. B. Prevented. C. Shown. D. Caused.
30. What can we know about the PCFSN?
A. Doing sports means making students choose between sports and studies.
B. Doing sports helps students make good use of all their time.
C. Doing sports means students adjust to their studies better.
D. Doing sports helps students do better in their studies.
31. What is the text mainly about?
A. Why high school students should receive physical education.
B. Why some schools consider physical education important.
C. How schools can help students love doing sports.
D. How high school students can live a better life.
D
The endangered pandas in Qinling Mountains might face a new threat: the loss of their food---bamboo, which makes up 99% of their meals.
Adult pandas spend most part of the day eating bamboo and have to take in at least 40 pounds a day to stay healthy. However, a new study published in Nature and Climate Change warned that they may soon find their food gone because most of the bamboo in Qinling Mountains might disappear by the end of the century as a result of rising temperature worldwide.
A team made up of researchers from Michigan State University and the Chinese Academy of Sciences has studied the effects of climate change on the bamboo in Qinling Mountains. They have found that bamboo is very sensitive to climate changes. “80% to 100% of the bamboo would be gone if the average temperature increases 3.5 degrees worldwide by the end of the century.” said Liu Jianguo, one of the report’s authors. He added, “This is how much the temperature would rise by 2100 even if all countries will keep their promises in the Paris Agreement. But you know what is happening around the world.”
In recent years, China has been trying its best to protect the endangered pandas by setting up more and bigger natural reserves.
“But it is far from being enough and the endangered pandas need cooperation from the rest of the world, because their future is not just in the hands of the Chinese,” said Shirley Martin from World Wildlife Fund but not a member of the team.
The Qinling Mountains, in the southwest of China, are home to about 260 pandas. That is about 13% of the Chinas wild panda population. In addition, about 375 are living in research centers and zoos in China.
32. What can we learn from the first paragraph?
A. Pandas have already eaten 99% of the bamboo in Qinling Mountains.
B. Pandas in Qinling Mountains are just threatened by the loss of food.
C. Lots of the bamboo in Qinling Mountains will possibly disappear.
D. Qinling Mountains cannot provide enough bamboo for the pandas.
33. What does Liu Jianguo mean?
A. The changes of temperature is sensitive to bamboo.
B. China needs more help from World wildlife Fund.
C. China is making great efforts to protect the pandas.
D. It is difficult to control the temperature rise within 3.5 degrees.
34. How many wild pandas are there in China?
A. About 2,000. B. About 635. C. About 260. D. About 2,635.
35. Which can be the best title for the text?
A. Necessity to Change Pandas’ Food B. A New Threat Faced by the Pandas
C. The Disappearance of Bamboo D. Efforts Made to Save Pandas

Born in the State of New York on May 14th, 1984, Mark Zuckerberg was an instant success. In his high school years, he was considered one of top students in the classics, before moving into the arts, sciences, and literature, again picking up high marks and receiving academic praise. It earned him admission to Harvard University.
As a rebellious (叛逆) yet relatively quiet student, he created a website called Facemash in the university– an instantly controversial website that encouraged students to rate each other based on appearance.
The site was controversial (有争议的) for several reasons. The first was its illegal use of photographs, which the university and students took issue with. The second was its controversial nature – not every student like being ranked based on their appearance. The third was its huge resource use – while it was hosted on Harvard servers, it was the most popular page in the university’s entire network.
Zuckerberg was soon forced to shut the site down, but its popularity and controversy had made him consider its future potential. He soon turned the simple site into a personal one for Harvard students, encouraging them to network with their peers at the college. It was then, together with his
two friends, that they launched “The Facebook”, which immediately spread to other colleges
and grew into a public service that anyone could access in the United States, whether to network with friends and family, or to play games.
The company has been criticized (批判) frequently, but Zuckerberg has remained true to his original idea– to create a website that the entire world can use to communicate openly and easily with one another and to keep the user experience clean and pure. The end result is one of the world’s biggest online businesses.
Although its true value is debatable, it’s safe to say that Facebook, and its creator Mark Zuckerberg, are two of the twenty-first century’s most influential, controversial, and potentially powerful figures.           
56. What’s true about Mark Zuckerberg when he was a student?
A. He had good academic performance.
B. He alone created a website called Facebook.
C. He encouraged students to set up business like him.
D. He was often praised by teachers for the website he created.
57. Why did Zuckerberg shut the site down?
A. Because his website was not popular.
B. Because he stole resource on Harvard server.
C. Because he needed time to reconsider his choice.
D. Because he was doubted for the way he used photographs.
58. Which words can best describe Zuckerberg?
A. Easy-going and smart. B. Quiet and shy.
C. Rebellious and creative. D. Talented and outgoing.
59. Which can be the best title for the text?
A. The Foundation of Facebook B. Mark Zuckerberg and his Facebook
C. A Talent from Harvard University D. The Development of Facebook
第六部分 书写展示 将下列句子认真书写到答题卡上（满分4分）
I know I’ll have to study harder as a senior high school student and get used to being responsible for a lot more. I’m a bit worried about keeping up with the other students in my advanced course, and it’ll be quite difficult to get used to all the homework. Still, I’m happy to be here. Studying hard isn’t always fun, but I’ll be well prepared for university or whatever else comes in the future.

21. A 根据画线后的they’re just as nervous as you are可以判断出A项正确，其他学生与你有 相似的感受。
22. B 根据Teachers are probably the best people to turn to as they’re experienced in helping new students可判断出老师们在帮助新生解决问题方面很有经验，于是选择B项，老师们擅长帮助解决问题。
23. D 这篇文章的目的主要是告诉高一新生如何适应高中的生活。
B 篇 试题分析：本文就平时常说的Have a Nice Day的含义进行探讨，第一题问朋友，第二题问超市服务员，第三题问陌生人，说明不同的人说have a nice day有不同的含义。
24.细节题：第一段的这句话：When my friend Maxie says "Have a nice day" with a smile， I know she sincerely cares about what happens to me. 这句话既包含了关键词Maxie，也包含她说的话以及作者自己的理解，通过这句话可知，作者从Maxie的一句简单寒暄中读出的是Maxie真诚的关心（sincerely cares），传达的是积极的意义。故B为正确答案。
25.句意理解题：从第二段的句子：The words came out in the same tone ( 腔调 ) with a fixed procedure. 说明女营业员这么说只是固定程序，没有特定含义。选D。
26.推理题，从第四段“If a stranger says “Have a nice day” to you, you may find it heart-warming because someone you don't know has tried to be nice to you”说明人们说Have a Nice Day，只是试图想要对你礼貌友好。选A。
27.主旨题。本文讨论的是have a nice day在不同人群口中的具体功能。现在一一分析选项。B项把have a nice day定义为pleasant gesture。文章开头第一句虽然提到了这一点，但同时也提到这句问候语还可能是a meaningless expression。而C、D两项也分别只指出了这句问候语的其中一种功能，因此都属于以偏概全。从广义上看来，B、C、D三项都是A项的子选项，因此，social custom是最具有概括性的一个标题。故选A
C篇 这是一篇议论文。文章主要讲了为什么高中生应该接受体育教育。
28. A细节理解题。根据第二段中的 “Teaching teens the importance of a healthy lifestyle and making fitness plans now can help teens put exercise in the first place as an adult.” 可知,高中体育教育意味着让青少年重视以后的锻炼。故选A项。
29. B词义猜测题。根据上文的 “Not doing sports increases teens’ risk of developing many diseases.An active lifestyle offers a good way of protection from these health problems.”可知,“As much as 75 percent of health-care spending goes toward treating medical conditions that can be hindered by lifestyle changes” 的意思是多达75%的医疗支出用于治疗可能因生活方式改变而受阻的疾病。hindered的意思是“受阻”,故选B项。
30. D推理判断题。根据最后一段中的 “Students from programs with no physical activity, who used the extra time for classroom study, did not perform better on tests than those who gave up some study time in support of physical education.” 推断出,根据PCFSN,做运动帮助学生在学习上做得更好。故选D项。
31. A主旨大意题。第一段中的 “But should high school students have physical education? The answer is certainly ‘yes’.” 是全文的主题句,结合全文内容,可知这篇文章主要讲了为什么高中生应该接受体育教育。故选A项。
D篇
32. C 细节理解题。从第一段 “The endangered pandas in Qinling Mountains might face a new threat: the loss of their food, bamboo, which makes up 99% of their meals” 可知，秦岭一带的竹子可能会消失。故C。

W: I’m Alexandra Grace, Educator at New Zealand Embassy Beijing. Today I will give you a brief introduction of New Zealand’s higher education. Small as it may be, New Zealand offers quality higher education opportunities, with two thirds of its higher education institutes within the top 10 of QS World University Rankings 2014. What makes New Zealand’s universities stand out is their abilities to provide high-end education.
Though Chinese students form the largest international student group in New Zealand, the country only ranks the 7th on Chinese students’ most desirable overseas destination list. The size of the country prevents it becoming a hot study destination. But it draws students with its safe and multi-cultural environment.
While it attracts mainly wealthy students, higher education in New Zealand is also affordable for many common Chinese families. Chinese students can get a British-based education with the school fee being some of the lowest in the world. On average, the school fee was about 25,000 dollars per year, and the living costs were about 20,000 dollars a year. Besides, students can do some part-time jobs. The money earned in those jobs is enough for them to travel around the country and enjoy its breath-taking scenery.
