第一节:(共15小题,满分30分)
A.
Police in the Russian city of St. Petersburg were today searching for a rare missing leopard which was stolen yesterday when thieves attacked a TV producer and drove off in his luxury Mercedes 4×4.
The amur leopard, which was in the boot, is one of the world’s most highly endangered species, with fewer than 45 left in the wild in Russia’s remote far east. About 300 others are captive in zoos around the world.
According to its owner, Mikhail Barakin, the thieves were wearing masks. They attacked him and his driver, throwing both of them out of the vehicle, shortly after they drove to St. Petersburg with leopard from Moscow.
“She’s a female leopard cub and she’s incredibly tame,” Barakin told the Guardian this morning. “She’s just over a month old. The leopard was brought up in captivity.”
He went on, “We had been driving all night with the leopard in a travel cage. The plan was to take her to the vet. My driver and I were in the process of setting the leopard in the trunk of my Mercedes…when three masked assailants attacked us. They managed to get away with the car. My suspicion is the theft was done to order.”
Barakin said the leopard, a present from a Moscow businessman, was far more valuable than the stolen Mercedes. He has offered a £85,400 reward for its safe return, and says he is prepared to drop all charges if the thieves bring the animal back.
The leopard was to have been housed in a purpose-built enclosure on a country estate outside St. Petersburg, he added. Barakin said he had hired a specialist to look after it, and was planning to use the cub in TV commercials.
36. We can infer from the passage that the three assailants ______.
A. probably came for the leopard                                 B. would return the leopard safely
C. didn’t know there was a leopard in the car                D. were known to Mikhail Barakin
37. The leopard was believed to be more valuable because ______.
A. it was already tamed                                          B. it could be kept as a pet
C. it would be used in TV commercials                    D. it was an endangered species
38. Mikhail Barakin drove the leopard to ______.
A. put her in a bigger place                                    B. use it in TV commercials
C. put her in better care                                          D. keep her in the zoo
39. If the thieves brought the leopard back, Mikhail Barakin would ______.
A. send them to prison                                           B. give them a reward
C. give them the car as a reward                              D. not charge them
40. The underlined word “boot” in Paragraph 2 probably refers to ______.
A. a special cage                                                    B. a type of shoe
C. the trunk of a car                                               D. a kind of camera

There are a number of languages spoken throughout the world. Every person knows at least one language, which he learns in his childhood and is routinely used for speaking and writing. However, many people are fond of learning two or more languages, so they try to be bilingual, which means that they try to have the knowledge of two or more languages. And being bilingual can bring a person a number of benefits in various aspects. For example:
A person can get cognitive(认知的) benefits from it. The bilingual people have two or more words for each idea and object. Therefore, a bilingual person can develop a creative thinking. The bilinguals are aware of which language should be spoken with which person in a particular situation. So they are more sensitive(敏感的) to the needs of the listener than the people who only use one language: Being bilingual also improves and enriches a person's mental development.
Being bilingual has a positive effect on a person's character. The bilinguals are able to switch between different languages and talk to different people in various languages. It increases a sense of self-esteem( 自尊). Being bilingual creates a powerful link in different people from different countries.
A bilingual education offers better curriculum(课程) results. The bilinguals tend to show a higher performance in examinations and tests. The bilinguals find it quite easy to learn and speak three, four or more languages.
Being bilingual offers potential employment benefits. It offers a wider choice of jobs in various fields. The bilinguals can get a great many career opportunities in transport, tourism, public relations, marketing and sales, banking, translation, law, teaching and so on.

第一节阅读表达(共5小题;每小题3分,满分15分)
阅读下面短文,并根据短文后的要求答题(请注意问题后的字数要求)。
[1] People today, in all this new world of technology and thinking, have lost sight of what a true friendship is. So, though I own my best friend Jenny, I thought I would help the world out a little and explain what real, true friends are.
[2] Friends don’t have to be exactly the same. They have similarities but __________________. The key to opening up the world of friendship is not only to expand on similarities but to accept each other’s faults, because you can’t ever judge your friend.
[3] Friends have to argue! No one likes to but it is necessary to be healthy. Because if you agree on everything, either the government has expanded cloning subjects or someone isn’t being true and is trying a little too hard.
[4] You have to be comfortable together. Otherwise, you just aren’t going to click. If you feel uneasy around the person then something isn’t quite right.
[5] Friends love unconditionally. They have their little angry moments but what’s done is done and all is forgiven and forgotten. Why let something that happened in the past ruin the happiness you could have in the future?
[6] Believe in love at first sight because there is the same thing happening in friendship. Some people think that you have to know someone really well to become good friends. Trust me, it’s not true.
[7] These are only a few of the basics. Just remember, friends are forever. But only if you keep it that way. Don’t disrespect your friends, love them instead.
76. What is the best title of the passage? (no more than 6 words)
_____________________________________________________________________________
77. Which sentence in the passage is the closest in meaning to the following one?
Make up with your friends after the quarrels and don’t let the sadness last long.
_____________________________________________________________________________
78. Please fill in the blank in Paragraph 2 with proper words or phrases to complete the sentence. (no more than 8 words)
_____________________________________________________________________________
79. Please list three of the writer’s viewpoints on friendship. (no more than 10 words)
①______________________ ②_______________________ ③________________________
80. Translate the underlined sentence in Paragraph 6 into Chinese.

阅读下面的短文,并根据要求回答后面的问题。(注意字数要求)
[1] If you are applying for an American higher education, you probably dream of getting into an Ivy League (常青藤联盟) university.The eight schools with the best reputations attract top students from the United States and many other countries.However, on average, the Ivy League schools accept less than 15 percent of applicants.And with the applicants growing in size year on year, it is becoming more and more difficult _________.
[2] So how can you give yourself the best chance of admission?
[3]Having a high school grade point average (GPA) in the top 10 percent of your class and being ranked among the top few students dramatically betters your chances.But although GPA and SAT scores are important, they only tell admission deans(主任) part of the story.
[4] The whole admissions process will single out (挑选出) from a large pool of academically strong applicants the unique individuals.They stand out because they have shown in their interviews a range of virtues (优点) expected of these universities.Take Harvard for example.Although there is no guarantee of admission, the school judges applicants based on 15 additional criteria.
[5] Intellectual curiosity (求知欲) comes first tor almost all admission deans.Schools look to such students because they believe their peers find them slimulaling(激励人的)inside and outside the classroom.
[6] Leadership also weighs heavily.The school would rather see an applicant who takes on additional responsibility in one or two areas where he or she is good at, rather than one who is merely "very good" academically.This can mean the class presidencv(主席职务), leading the cheerleading team or being the officer of a student union.
[7] Whether a person has personal warmth and cares about others counts a lot with the admission deans.Writing an essay on a personal experience, like a summer spent raising funds for the earthquake victims or teaching in a local school, can show that a person has qualities in addition to academic experience.
76.What is the purpose of the passage? (no more than 15 words)
77.Which sentence in the passage can be replaced by the following one?
The universities pay attention to the students with this virtue in that they can inspire their fellow students at school.
78.Fill in the blank in the first paragraph with proper words or phrases to complete the sentence. (no more than 5 words)
79.Based on the passage, list three additional criteria for admission besides academic performance.(no more than 10 words)
①_________________ ?②_______________ ?③____________________
80.Translate the underlined sentence in the fourth paragraph into Chinese.

    61    Being angry doesn’t really solve much, but what people do when they feel angry is important. The goal is to calm down and try to solve what is bothering you. This is hard for some kids and adults, too. Instead of calming down, some kids might keep getting more and more upset until they explode like a volcano!
   62    Their anger might be so strong that they lose control of their temper. They may act in ways unacceptable and hurtful. People may say that someone has trouble controlling their temper.    63   
Some kids might get so angry that they scream at their parents, break something, or even worse, hit their brothers and sisters.    64    However, it’s not OK for a kid to do any of those things. Kids don’t want to act in this way, but sometimes angry feelings can be hard to manage. So what to do?
Well, the good news is that kids don’t just have to keep making the same mistakes over and over again.    65     Imagine your temper as a puppy inside you that needs some training. The puppy is not bad-it will probably turn out a great dog. It just needs to learn some rules because, right now, that puppy is causing some problems to you.
You can train your temper.
You don’t want to cause trouble.
Kids should be allowed to express their feelings, even angry ones.
Everybody gets angry sometimes.
In fact, they usually mean that a kid behaves badly when feeling angry.
Instead of thinking of the person you are angry with, think of something else.
Some kids get angry more often or more easily than some others.

Hoocke's early education began at home,under the guidance of his father.He entered Westnfinster School at the age of 13,and from there went to Oxford,where he came in contact with some of the best scientists in England.Hooke impressed them with his skills at designing experiments and inventing instruments.In 1662,at the age of 28, he was named Curator of
Experiments at the newly formed Royal Society of London—meaning that he was responsible for demonstrating new experiments at the society’s weekly meetings.Hooke accepted the job,even though he knew that the society had no money to pay him!
Watching living things through a microscope was one of his favorite pastimes.He invented a compound microscope for this purpose.One day while observing a cork(软木塞)under a microscope,he saw honeycomb-like structures.They were cells—the smallest units of life.In fact,it was Hooke who invented the term“cell” as the boxlike ceils of the cork reminded him of the cells of a monastery(修道院).
Another achievement Of Hook’s was his book Micrographi which introduced the.Enormous potential of the microscope.It contains fascinating drawings of the things he saw under the  microscope.The book also includes,among other things,ideas on gravity,light and combustion(燃烧)that may have helped scientists like Newton when they were developing their own theories on these phenomena.
Hooke made valuable contributions to astronomy too.A crater(坑)on the moon is named  after him in appreciation of his services to this branch of science.
68.Why possibly did Hooke accept the job as Curator of Experiments?
A. Because his parents couldn’t afford his education.

A man noticed his father alive on television — five years after he thought he had cremated(火化) him. A body discovered three years after his disappearance in 2000 was thought to be the pensioner (a retired person), but it’s now emerged(显出) it wasn’t.
When John Delaney disappeared, he was spending much of his time living outside, and sleeping on the streets. He was last seen in a hospice(收容所) in Manchester. His family searched the streets of the city for him but had no luck. So when a badly-rotten body was found in the grounds of the Manchester Royal Infirmary in 2003, wearing similar clothes, police believed it was Mr Delaney and his family held a funeral.
But earlier this year his son, John Renehan, saw a picture of his father on a BBC programme.
An appeal was being made for anyone who knew the man — who had memory loss—to give information.
John Renehan:
Well I knew at that very moment that was my dad. I knew at that very moment. Obviously his face, it was a bit changed, but I just knew at that very moment that was my dad. It emerged that John Delaney had been living in a care home for the last eight years.
Police have admitted they made mistakes and their enquiries were insufficient. Mr Delaney’s son now wants to know the identity of the man he cremated — thinking it was his father.

A.in 2003                  B.in 2000                   C.in 2005                   D.in 2008
42.What mistake did police make?
A.They couldn’t find Mr Delaney as soon as possible.
B.In 2003, they took a badly-rotten body for Mr Delaney.
C.They didn’t give any information to John Renehan.
D.They made John Renehan cremate the rotten body.
43.The most probable reason why Delaney disappeared was that        .
A.he had memory loss.                                   B.his family disliked him
C.he liked to live outside                     D.he met with a friendly family
44.It can be inferred from the passage that Delaney       .
A.has recovered his memory
B.often quarrelled with his family
C.loitered(游荡) in the streets for 5 years
D.was once a man with luck
45.Which of the following is the best title?
