I'm walking around a street on Detroit's west side,looking at the house where my mother lived in the 1930s. A neighbor,understandably curious,bounds over.
“I'm the king of Glendale,M Keith Harris says. Harris loves Glendale Street — so much so that he’s purchased nine properties for $42,000. “I'm.not done yet,” he says. “I'm going to buy more and rent them." I'm glad to hear this. Glendale could use more investment. So could Tuxedo Street,a few blocks away,where my father grew up. So could Detroit.
I've seen all the photos showing Detroit in ruins. Now I've come to see for myself what's happened to what was America's fifth largest city around 1950. Then there were more than 1. 8 million residents(居民) ;now there are fewer than 700,000.
This is where my family settled after immigrating to the United States in the 1920s,moving into neighborhoods fiiled witi people just like them.
The handwritten 1940 census(人口 普查) page for Tuxedo Street literally illustrates the story: It shows a long list of Jewish names and the places from which Jews fled. The neighborhood was so insular (与世隔绝的) that when my American-bom mother went to kindergarten,she couldn't speak English.
Those families don't live here anymore. Some houses have become empty lots. But some are tidy symbols of survival and pride. Keith Harris owns one of those homes. We have clean-up-the-block day,” he tells me. aWe are trying to make it better.w
“Visitors like me walk these streets all the time,” he says, “Some people came and cried like babies." Maybe they shouldn't have. Though much is gone,there are seeds of hope across the city. Harris has planted some of those seeds. “We invest in this block,” he says, “because we want to stay."
21. Why does Keith Harris say he's the king of Glendale?
A. He invests heavily in Glendale.
B. He's a popular resident in Glendale.
C. He knows everything about Glendale.
D. He has the most attractive house in Glendale.
22. According to the text,Detroit .
A. has a splendid history
B. is able to bounce back
C. has few houses for rent
D. is attracting lots of visitors
23. What do we know about the author's mother?
A. She had no gift for language.
B. She lived in Tuxedo Street in the 1930s.
C. She immigrated into the US in the 1920s.
D. She had little access to other cultures as a kid.
24. Clean-up-the-block day was held to.
A. maintain its Jewish style
B. promote the image of Glendale
C. brighten up local residents’ life
D. set an example for the whole city

第三部分书面表达(共两节,满分35分)
第一节阅读表达(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)
So you’re between the ages of 13 and 24. What makes you happy? Spending time with family was the top answer to that open-ended question,according to a survey—more than 100 questions asked of 1 ,280 people aged 13-24 carried out by the Associated Press on the nature of happiness among America^ young people.
Next was spending time with friends. And good news for parents: nearly three quarters of young people say their relationship with their parents makes them happy.
“They’re my foundation ,” says Kristina St. John,17, a high-school student from Queens in New York. “My mum tells me that even if I do something stupid,she's still going to love me. Just knowing that makes me feel very happy. ”
Other results are more disconcerting. While most young people are happy with the way their lives are going,there are racial differences: the survey shows whites to be happier than blacks. A lot of young people feel stressed,particularly those from the middle class,and females more than males.
You might think money would be clearly tied to a general sense of happiness. But almost no one said “money” when asked what makes them happy,though people with the highest family incomes are generally happier with life. However,having highly educated parents is a stronger predictor (预示物) of happiness than income.
Young people think marriage would make them happy and want to be married some day. Most also want to have kids.
Finally,when asked to name their heroes,nearly half of-them mentioned one or both of their parents. The winner,by a nose (以些微之差) :Mum.
56. What's the meaning of the underlined word “disconcerting” in Paragraph 4 ? (1 word)
57. What are the top two things that make young people happy? (No more than 10 words)
58. Do most American young people want to marry? Why? (No more than 10 words)
59. What can we infer from the last paragraph? (No more than 7 words)
60. Among the young people who would be more likely to feel stressed? (No more than 6 words)

第二部分阅读理解(共两节,满分40分)
第一节阅读理解(共15小题;每小题2分,满分30分)
A
All living beings have enemies. And they all have developed interesting ways to keep them at bay. Some animals hide,others run,or just fly away when faced with danger. These are their defence methods.
Some animals can hide without moving. They have the unique ability to change their colour according to the change of the surroundings. They become invisible to the predator (猎食者) . This method of defence is called “camouflage”.
The most common example of an animal which uses camouflage is the chameleon (变色龙) . If it is on a green leaf,it turns green and if it is on a brown branch,it turns brown.
Some rabbits change colour with the change of the season. The snowshoe hare is brown in summer and white in winter. The white fur serves as camouflage in the snow in winter.
Many non-poisonous snakes take on colours similar to poisonous snakes in order to scare off enemies. This form of defence is called mimicry (模仿) . Some poisonous snakes have very bright colours to warn enemies. This form of defence is called “warning colouration”.
There is a kind of fish called the puffer fish which uses an extraordinary device to keep predators away. It swells up (膨胀) like a balloon when it is attacked.Then,its attacker finds it difficult to swallow it.
Animals which cannot protect themselves in these ways develop other means to do so. Some have claws and teeth which they use to fight;others have poison fangs. Snakes bite,bees sting and skunks give off an unpleasant smelling liquid to ward off enemies.
36. Camouflage refers to a method in which animals
A. use bright colour to attract other animals
B. change shape to fit in with the surroundings
C. change colour to cheat their enemies
D. hide away to catch other animals
37. Which of the following uses the method of ^mim-icry”?
A. The chameleon. B. A kind of rabbit.
C. Snakes. D. Fish.
38. The puffer fish swells up like a balloon when it is attacked to .
A. frighten away its enemies
B. avoid being swallowed
C. fight with its enemies
D. swim faster
39. The underlined word “fangs” in the last paragraph probably refers to .
A. teeth B. ears C. fingers D. eyes
40. What is the passage mainly about?
A. How animals find food.
B. Why animals are so clever.
C. Why animals change colour.
D. How animals defend themselves.
