At the end of his first year in high school, Chris received three A’s and 30 F’s on his report card ─ the first time he had 31 anything in school. Because Kennedy High School only allowed three failures 32 four years, one more F and Chris would be kicked out of school. That’s when he made up his mind to 33.

[color=]第二部分 阅读理解（共两节，满分 40分）
第一节（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分）
阅读下列四篇短文，从每小题后所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。并在答题卡上将该选项涂黑。
A
Planning a visit to the UK? Here we help with ways to cut your costs.
AVOID BIG EVENTS Big sporting events, concerts and exhibitions can increase the accommodation and make it harder to find a room. A standard double room at the Thistle Brighton on the final Friday of the Brighton Comedy Festival (19, Oct.) cost ￡ 169.15 at Booking. Com. A week later, the same room cost ￡ 118.15.
If you can be flexible and want to know dates to avoid ─ or you’re looking for a big event to pass your time ─ check out sites such as Whatsonwhen.com, which allow you to search for events in the UK by city, date and category.
STAY AWAY FROM THE STATION If travelling to your destination by train, you may want to find a base close to the station, but you could end up paying more for the sake of convenience at the start of your holiday.
Don’t be too choosy about the part of town you stay in. Booking two months in advance, the cheapest room at Travelodge’s Central Euston hotel in London for Saturday 22 September was ￡ 95.95. A room just a tube journey away at its Covent Garden hotel was ￡ 75.75. And at Farringdon, a double room cost just ￡ 62.95.
LOOK AFTER YOURSELF Really central hotels in cities such as London, Edinburgh and Cardiff can cost a fortune, especially at weekends and during big events. As an alternative consider checking into a self-catering flat with its own kitchen. Often these flats are hidden away on the top floors of city centre buildings. A great example is the historic O’Neill Flat on Edinburgh’s Royal Mile, available for ￡ 420 for five days in late September, with room for four adults.
GET ON A BIKE London’s ‘Boris bikes’ have attracted the most attention, but other cities also have similar programmes that let you rent a bicycle and explore at your own pace, saving you on public transport or car parking costs.
Among the smaller cities with their own programmes are Newcastle (casual members pay around ￡ 1.50 for two hours) and Cardiff (free for up to 30 minutes, or ￡ 5 per day).
46. The Brighton Comedy Festival is mentioned mainly to show big events
may _________.
A. help travellers pass time B. attract lots of travellers to the UK
C. allow travelers to make flexible plans D. cause travelers to pay more for accommodation
47. “Farrington” in paragraph 5 is most probably ________.
A. a hotel away from the train station B. the tube line to Covent Garden
C. an ideal holiday destination D. the name of a travel agency
48. The passage shows that the O’Neill Flat ________.
A. lies on the ground floor B. is located in central London
C. provides cooking facilities for tourists D. costs over ￡ 100 on average per day in late September
49. Cardiff’s programme allows a free bike for a maximum period of _______.
A. half an hour B. one hour C. one hour and a half D. two hours
B
David and I met as interns(实习生) on Capital Hill. Our love then grew through a 5-year long-distance relationship. We were able to survive despite our pursuit to become a doctor and a lawyer. He was at the University of Michigan School of Medicine and I was at the University of Maryland School of Law. We encouraged each other. David proposed to me on May 15, 2011 in front of both of our families. It was amazing! I graduated from law school on that day David proposed and we got married the day after he graduated from medical school.
David and I really didn’t have much money to have a huge wedding, but we wanted the wedding of our dreams. We decided to plan everything ourselves. For decoration, I tried to create as many ideas as I could. We had a signature drink called “The Huxtable”. We used mostly orchids as our flowers. We made our own seating chart (座位图) by downloading a free template（模板）and printing it out on a huge foam board. We could not afford a backdrop (背景幕) to go behind the bridal party, so we made one out of tissue and two enormous peg boards. It was awesome. Many people wanted to buy our backdrop, but I gave it to our linen designer because he gave us crazy discounts.
David designed our guestbook by using the Apple iphone photobook application. It was awesome. He came up with the title “Witness to love: David and Susan’s Wedding Day” for the cover and then on the inside he stated this, in part, “Bearing Witness: Thank you for being a witness to our covenant (盟约) with God as we commit ourselves to join as one…” I was moved deeply by his beautiful words.
We make our ceremony programs. We had a couple of gifts for guests. We gave them a handkerchief with our initials at the church, candy from the self-made candy bar display and stainless steel measuring spoons that said “love beyond measure”.
We had a great wedding and the guests enjoyed themselves. By sharing my wedding story, I just want to tell you that you can have a wedding that you want within budget.
50. Why did the writer and David decide to plan everything themselves?
A. Because they had no time to find helpers.
B. Because they wanted to save money in this way.
C. Because they thought they were able to do that.
D. Because they wanted to make sure everything was perfect.
51. People’s reaction to the backdrop made by the writer and her bridegroom shows
that _________.
A. they thought highly of it B. they wanted to sell it for money
C. they wanted to help the writer out D. they were planning for their own weddings
52. How does the writer most probably feel after seeing the words on the guestbook?
A. Down B. Curious C. Nervous D. Touched
53. The underlined word in the fourth paragraph most probably means______.
A. something very important B. some loving words they promise each other
C. the beginning capital letters of their names D. some witnesses’ words
C
I prefer Lynne Truss’s phraseology (措辞): I am a grammar “sticker”. And, like Truss ― author of Eats, Shoots & Leaves ― I have a “zero tolerance” approach to grammar mistakes that make people look stupid.
Now, Truss and I disagree on what it means to have “zero tolerance”. She thinks that people who mix up basic grammar “deserve to be stuck by lightning, hacked (砍) up on the spot and buried in an unmarked grave”, while I just think they deserve to be passed over for a job ― even if they are otherwise qualified for the position.
Everyone who applies for a position at either of my companies, iFixit and Dozuki, takes a compulsory grammar test. If job hopefuls can’t distinguish between “to” and “too”, their applications go into the bin.
Of course, we write for a living. iFixit is the world’s largest online repair manual (说明书), and Dozuki helps companies write their own technical documentation, like paperless work instructions and step-by-step user manuals. So it makes sense that we’ve made a strong strike against grammar errors.
But grammar is relevant for all companies. Yes, language is constantly changing, but that doesn’t make grammar unimportant. Good grammar is credibility, especially on the Internet. And for better or worse, people judge you if you can’t tell the difference between “their” “there” and “they’re”.
Good grammar makes good business sense ― and not just when it comes to hiring writers. Writing isn’t in the official job description of most people in our office. Still, we give our grammar test to everybody, including our salespeople, our operations staff, and our programmers.
Grammar signifies more than just a person’s ability to remember high school English. I’ve found that people who make fewer mistakes on a grammar test also make fewer mistakes when they are doing something completely unrelated to writing ― like stocking shelves or labeling parts. It is the same with programmers. Applicants who don’t think writing is important are likely to think lots of other things also aren’t important.
54. The author agrees with Lynne Truss in that__________.
A. grammar mistakes can’t be tolerated B. books on grammar makes people stupid
C. people need to learn basic grammar D. grammar mistakes are absolutely unavoidable
55. What’s the author’s “zero tolerance” approach to these job seekers who mix up basic grammar?
A. They should be left out for a job B. They have to correct their mistakes
C. They aren’t qualified for their job D. They must be severely punished
56. Which of the following is TRUE of iFixit and Dozuki?
A. Only one of them has a compulsory grammar test. B. They are companies where one learns grammar.
C. Grammar is quite important for their existence. D. They depend on grammar for a living.
57. What can we learn from the text?
A. Companies giving grammar tests may have no good business sense.
B. Grammar becomes unimportant as language is constantly changing.
C. A “zero tolerance” approach to grammar errors might seem a little unfair.
D. People who pay attention to writing may pay attention to other things.
D
Picture a wasteland of computer monitors and TVs, stretching as far as the eye can see. Imagine towers of boxes, all of them filled with broken glass and old electronic devices. Technology graveyards like this can be found in communities across the country.
Experts say that landfills and warehouses will overflow unless a plan for the disposal(清理)and reuse of electronics is put into place. “We can’t put electronics and glass aside and tell ourselves we’ll deal with them later,” Lauren Roman, managing director of Transparent Planet said. Roman’s group works to improve the disposal of electronic waste. She says about 660 million pounds of tech trash is produced each year in the US.
What’s behind the tech trash pile-up? About ten years ago, major advances were made in computer and television technology. Manufacturers began producing devices like flat-paneled LCDs and plasma(等离子)screen monitors. These new products provide a clearer image and take up less space than older models. It goes without saying that consumers choose them rather than heavy, glass-based technologies.
The new electronics are built with materials that are difficult to recycle. In addition, the new products have decreased the demand for recycled parts from the older monitors and screens. Older, heavier computer monitors and TVs used glass-based components called CRTs.
CRTs have a high lead (铅) content and can be environmentally risky if not recycled properly. If crushed and put in landfills, the lead from CRTs could seep into groundwater and rivers, harming the water supply. For many years, plants and recycling programs safely processed CRTs. The recycled CRTs were reused in the construction of new monitors.
Monitors being made today do not use glass tubes. “People are returning old-style TVs with CRTs, but no new ones are being made,” said Linnel. This is creating an imbalance in the amount of glass being disposed of and recycled properly. Many recycling companies have shut down. Others no longer have the resources or space to process these materials. This results in stockpiling.
However, experts say there are ways to safely and responsibly deal with the tech trash problem.
58. What is the main idea of the passage?
A. New technologies cause trouble for recyclers.
B. Experts are trying to solve the tech trash problem.
C. New technology has both advantages and disadvantages
D. CRTs from old computer monitors harm the earth.
59. What Lauren Roman says in paragraph 2 shows that _______.
A. people attach great importance to electronic waste
B. he has found a way on how to dispose electronic waste
C. figuring out how to deal with electronic waste is urgent
D. more landfills are needed for storing electronics and glass
60. What would the writer probably talk about next?
A. Some other problems related to technologies.
B. Some experts’ opinions on the tech-trash problems.
C. Some reasons why the tech-trash problem is hard to solve.
D. Some practical ways to solve the tech-trash problem.
第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）
根据短文内容，从下边的A—F选项中选出能概括每一段主题的最佳选项。选项中有一项为多余选项。
A. Exercise regularly and make it funB. Look for ways of helping other peopleC. Look back over your life and remember the happy timeD. Appreciate just what you have got in your life right nowE. Create a fun break every day even if only for 10 to 15 minutesF. Cut down on the amount of negative information such as through the media
Tips for being happier
61. __________________
Stay well informed, but watching news reports over and over again about things you can do nothing about will bring dark clouds into your life. Especially refuse to listen to weather reports. Notice how weather reporters in the UK describes the weather as being gloomy or miserable rather than just saying it is cold, rainy or windy ! You can choose how you feel regardless of what the weather is like. Remember, the weather is just the weather.
62. __________________
For example, stop complaining that you don’t have a slimmer body and be grateful that you can walk. Begin today to tell all the people in your life now much you appreciate then being there for you. Remember to show your appreciation also for those people who make life so easy for you such as the postman and the cleaner. Also, tell at least one person today just what you like about them.
63. __________________
This will stop you focusing so much on yourself and your current life situation. Perhaps you would like to volunteer in your local charity shop, school or even a sponsored parachute jump. Look to do anything for others that will be different and will get you out of your comfort zone at the same time. A lot of people volunteer and help out over Christmas, but the need for help is there all year around and you can be the one to do so now.
64. __________________
Schedule this time into your daily routine, perhaps during your lunchtime. Write out a “fun list”, which will ensure that you never have the excuse of not knowing what to do. Pop into a different restaurant for a change or take a different routine to work just for the “fun” of it. Look for activities that are free or cheap.
65. __________________
Take 45 minutes out of your day to build up your muscles and strengthen your body, mind and spirit. Remind yourself of the benefits and adapt exercise habits as part of your daily routine of self care. Stop thinking of exercise as an option. Start now and experiment until you find something you truly enjoy.

Dear John,
I am extreme sorry to tell you that I am unable to go to your party this Sunday.
It is very kind for you to invite me to your house and I really look forward to go to your party and sharing your happy experience abroad. Much to my regret, I will be absent from our party owing to the fact that the College Entrance Examination are just around the corner, for which I am now really busy prepared. What’s worse, I have caught bad cold lately and I am really not myself.
Anyway, we would have many more chances to get together. Shall we make it after the Exam? I am truly sorry. I hope you will forgive me and to accept my sincere apology.
I’m looking forward to your reply.
Yours,
Mike

Dear Wang Lei,
I’ve read your blog and understand your situation. As your best friend, now I’d like to offer you some advice.
First of all, you should have enough sleep at night because staying up too late is bad for your health. Second, it doesn’t make sense to compare yourself with others in class because everyone is different from others physically and mentally. More importantly, it is beneficial to develop a positive attitude towards life. Although we attach importance to the College Entrance Examination, it is equally significant to improve our overall qualities. Therefore you should take regular exercise in order to keep fit.
I know you are learning under great pressure especially when the College Entrance Examination is drawing near. Only by relieving stress and pressure properly can you make full use of your time and achieve your goal. It’s normal to experience anxieties which motivate us to move forward instead of dragging us down. Just believe in yourself that you can make it.
I do hope my advice will be of a little help to you and improve your learning. |
