What makes a gift special?Is it the price you see on the gift receipt?Or is it the look on the recipient’s face when they receive it that determines the true value?What gift is worth the most?
This Christmas I was debating what to give my father.My dad is a hard person to buy for because he never wants anything.I pulled out my phone to read a text message from my mom saying that we were leaving for Christmas shopping for him when I came across a message on my phone that I had locked.The message was from my father.My eyes fell on a photo of a flower taken in Wyoming,and underneath a poem by William Blake.The flower,a lone dandelion standing against the bright blue sky,inspired me.My dad had been reciting those words to me since I was a kid.That may even be the reason why I love writing.I decided that those words would be my gift to my father.
I called back.I told my mom to go without me and that I already created my gift.I sent the photo of the cream-colored flower to my computer and typed the poem on top of it.As I was arranging the details another poem came to mind.The poem was written by Edgar Allan Poe;my dad recited it as much as he did the other.I typed that out as well and searched online for a background to the words of it.The poem was focused around dreaming,and after searching I found the perfect picture.The image was painted with blues and greens and purples,twisting together to create the theme and wonder of a dream.As I watched both poems passing through the printer,the white paper coloring with words that shaped my childhood,I felt that this was a gift that my father would truly appreciate.
Christmas soon arrived.The minute I saw the look on my dad’s face as he unwrapped those swirling black letters carefully placed in a cheap frame,I knew I had given the perfect gift.

Still seeking a destination for your weekend break?There are some places which are probably a mere walk away from your college.
King’s Art Centre
A day at the Centre could mean a visit to an exhibition of the work of one of the most interesting contemporary artists on show anywhere.This weekend sees the opening of an exhibition of four local artists.
You could attend a class teaching you how to ‘learn from the masters’ or get more creative with paint—free of charge.
The Centre also runs two life drawing classes for which there is a small fee.
The Botanic Garden
The Garden has over 8,000 plant species;it holds the research and teaching collection of living plants for Cambridge University.
The multi-branched Torch Aloe here is impressive.The African plant produces red flowers above blue-green leaves,and is not one to miss.
Get to the display house to see Dionaea muscipula,a plant more commonly known as the Venus Flytrap that feeds on insects and other small animals.
The Garden is also a place for wildlife-enthusiasts.Look for grass snakes in the lake.A snake called ‘Hissing Sid’ is regularly seen lying in the heat of the warm sun.
Byron’s Pool
Many stories surround Lord Byron’s time as a student of Cambridge University.Arriving in 1805,he wrote a letter complaining that it was a place of “mess and drunkenness”.However,it seems as though Byron did manage to pass the time pleasantly enough.I’m not just talking about the pet bear he kept in his rooms.He spent a great deal of time walking in the village.
It is also said that on occasion Byron swam naked by moonlight in the lake,which is now known as Byron’s Pool.A couple of miles past Grantchester in the south Cambridgeshire countryside,the pool is surrounded by beautiful circular paths around the fields.The cries of invisible birds make the trip a lovely experience and on the way home you can drop into the village for afternoon tea.If you don’t trust me,then perhaps you’ll take it from Virginia Woolf—over a century after Byron,she reportedly took a trip to swim in the same pool.
61.As mentioned in the passage,there is a small charge for    .?
A.attending the masters’ class
B.working with local artists
C.learning life drawing
D.seeing an exhibition
62.“Torch Aloe” and “Venus Flytrap” are    .?
A.common insects B.impressive plants
C.rarely-seen snakes D.wildlife-enthusiasts
63.We can infer from the passage that Byron seemed    .?
A.to fear pet bears
B.to like walking
C.to be a heavy drinker
D.to finish university in 1805
64.In the passage Byron’s Pool is described as a lake    .?
A.surrounded by fields
B.owned by Lord Byron
C.located in Grantchester
D.discovered by Virginia Woolf
65.What is the passage mainly about?
A.Some places for weekend break.
B.A way to become creative in art.
C.The colourful life in the countryside.
D.Unknown stories of Cambridge University.

Harvard researchers have created a tough,low-cost,biodegradable(可生物降解的) material inspired by insects’ hard outer shells.The material’s inventors say it has a number of possible uses and someday could provide a more environmentally friendly alternative to plastic.The material,made from shrimp(蝦) shells and proteins produced from silk,is called “shrilk.”It is thin,clear,flexible and strong.
A major benefit of the material is its biodegradability.Plastic’s toughness and flexibility represented a revolution in materials science during the 1950s and ‘60s.Decades later,however,plastic’s very durability(耐用性) is raising questions about how appropriate it is for one-time products such as plastic bags,or short-lived consumer goods,used in the home for a few years and then cast into a landfill where they will degrade for centuries.What is the point of making something that lasts 1,000 years?
Shrilk not only will degrade in a landfill,but its basic components are used as fertilizer(肥料),and so will enrich the soil.
Shrilk has great potential,the inventors said.Materials from which it is made are plentiful in nature,found in everything ranging from shrimp shells,insect bodies to living plants.That makes shrilk low cost,and its mass production possible should it be used for products demanding a lot of material.
Work on shrilk is continuing in the lab.The inventors said the material becomes flexible when wet,so they’re exploring ways to use it in wet environments.They’re also developing simpler production processes,which could be used for non-medical products,like for computer cases and other products inside the home.They’re even exploring combining it with other materials,like carbon fibers,to give it new properties.
66.Paragraph 1 of the passage is mainly about shrilk’s    .?
A.remarkable design
B.interesting name
C.major features
D.basic elements
67.What has become a concern about plastic?
A.Using it properly.
B.Producing it cheaply.
C.Developing its properties quickly.
D.Evaluating its contributions fairly.
68.According to the inventors,shrilk has great potential partly because    .?
A.it can help plastic degrade
B.it can be found in living things
C.its mass production has been realized
D.its raw materials are abundant in nature
69.What are the inventors doing in the lab?
A.Replacing carbon fibers with shrilk.
B.Testing shrilk’s use in wet conditions.
C.Making shrilk out of used household goods.
D.Improving shrilk’s flexibility for medical purposes.
70.Which of the following can be the best title for the passage?
A.Recent Progress in Environmental Protection
B.Benefits of Insects in Scientific Research
C.The Harm of One-time Products
D.A Possible Alternative to Plastic
Part Ⅳ Writing(45 marks)
Section A(10 marks)
Directions:Read the following passage.Fill in the numbered blanks by using the information from the passage.
Write NO MORE THAN THREE WORDS for each answer.
Since the earliest civilizations,people have controlled rivers to meet society’s demands.Today,rivers are controlled for many reasons,primarily to maintain reliable water supplies for daily,agricultural and industrial needs,for power generation,for navigation(航行),and to prevent flooding.
River control is achieved by channelization,a term that covers a range of river engineering works,including widening,deepening,straightening and stabilization of banks,and by the construction of dams.
An important period of channelization took place in Europe during the 19th century,when many large rivers were straightened and their beds deepened.One of the most dramatically changed was the Tisza River,a branch of the Danube that flows through Hungary.The controlling of the Tisza,designed to reduce flooding and make land for agriculture,included cutting off more than 100 meanders(河曲),shortening the river’s length by nearly 400 kilometers.
One of the most common ways in which people control rivers is by damming them.The past 50 years or so has seen an increase in dam construction worldwide,and at the beginning of the 21st century,there were about 800,000 dams globally,some towering more than 200 meters in height.
Despite their successes,many dams also cause significant environmental changes that prove harmful.Some particularly deep reservoirs(水庫) can bring about earthquakes due to the stress on their bottom rocks caused by huge volumes of water.Downstream of a reservoir,the river is certainly influenced in many ways:water volume,speed and quality are all affected,leading to changes in the landscape and among plants and animals.

Section B(10 marks)
Directions:Read the following passage.Answer the questions according to the information given in the passage.
A wise teacher once told me that every teenager needs to experience a not-so-fun first job from working at a grocery store to the fast food industry.
Now I still remember my first day at a fast food restaurant three years ago.I wanted to save up money and buy my own car,so I applied everywhere I could that summer.The restaurant called me right away and I thought to myself,this is going to be easy.Within four hours of my first shift(輪班),I had angry customers who complained how slow I was.I watched in fear as a kid spilled his milk everywhere,and I heard the words that no 16-year-old boy or anyone for that matter wants to hear:“Mike,there’s a problem in the men’s bathroom and you might want gloves for this one.”I realized right away that working at the restaurant was not going to be a picnic.The manager expected a clean environment and,particularly,fast service with a friendly smile.
Over three years later I still work at that restaurant whenever I go home during vacations.I love my co-workers there and all the customers know who I am.Every morning the same senior citizens come in and get their morning coffees.They chat with us workers and joke around.Our smiles have just as much to do with them making us a part of their everyday lives as the coffee does.
From my first job at the restaurant,I learned teamwork and devotion.I also learned staying positive no matter how rough things seem to get.I will forever carry the experience that I gained at the restaurant with me as I go forward in my life.
81.Why did the author apply everywhere that summer?(No more than 12 words)(2 marks)
?
82.What did the manager particularly expect the workers to do?(No more than 14 words)(3 marks)
?
83.Why does the author still work at the restaurant during vacations?(No more than 13 words)(2 marks)
?
84.What did the author learn from his first job?(No more than 11 words)(3 marks)
?

16.90 17.month 18.Reference 19.New Year’s Day 20.ID card
21.C 考查非謂語動詞。句意:我們已經(jīng)有了一個很好的開端,但要想獲得最終的成功,接下來還有更多的工作要做。此處謂語動詞為needs,表示“需要”,而其主語more work與后面的do存在被動關(guān)系,故要用動詞-ing形式的主動形式(doing)或者不定式的被動形式(to be done)。故B項正確。
22.A 考查動詞的時態(tài)與語態(tài)。句意:不要擔(dān)心,你現(xiàn)在的努力工作在以后的生活中會有回報的。根據(jù)later in life可知,此處要用一般將來時,且主語the hard work與repay之間為被動關(guān)系,故A項正確。
23.B 考查非謂語動詞。句意:時間如果運用得當(dāng),就會變成銀行里的錢。此處是非謂語動詞作狀語,其邏輯主語time與use之間存在被動關(guān)系,故用過去分詞表示被動。
24.B 考查副詞辨析。句意:騎自行車是一種良好的鍛煉,此外,它也不會污染空氣。nevertheless“然而,不過”;besides“此外,而且”;otherwise“否則,不然”;therefore“因此”。根據(jù)句意,B項正確。
25.C 考查動詞的時態(tài)。此處為“祈使句+and/or+一般將來時”的結(jié)構(gòu)。句意:關(guān)上恐懼之門后,你就會看到信心之門在你面前打開。故C項正確。
26.C 考查名詞性從句。分析句子結(jié)構(gòu)可知,it作形式主語,真正的主語是其后面的從句。句意:村里的每個人都很友善,你在此居住的時間長短沒有關(guān)系。根據(jù)句意以及從句中最后的or a long time可知,此處C項正確。
27.D 考查動詞的時態(tài)。句意:“這個時刻很快就要來臨了,”他緊張地等待著,暗自思考。雖然本句用了一般過去時,但引號內(nèi)的話是他當(dāng)時的感受,是采用直接引語的形式,故要用一般將來時。
28.A 考查狀語從句。句意:盡管我一直感覺我會通過這次考試,但從沒想過會得一個A。while“盡管”,引導(dǎo)讓步狀語從句,多放于句首。once“一旦”;if“如果”;until“直到”,均不符合句意。
29.D 考查虛擬語氣。句意:很抱歉,我現(xiàn)在很忙。要是我有時間,一定會與你去遠(yuǎn)足的。根據(jù)句意可知,此處表示與現(xiàn)在事實相反的虛擬語氣,條件句中的謂語動詞要用過去式。故D項正確。
30.B 考查強調(diào)句式。句意:我直到來到這兒才意識到此處出名的不僅是它的美而且還有這里的天氣。判斷強調(diào)句式的方法是將it is/was...that去掉時句式是否完整。不難看出此處是強調(diào)not until引導(dǎo)的時間狀語。故B項正確。
31.A 考查非謂語動詞。句意:昨晚7點開始的演講結(jié)束之后,緊跟著的是對月球用望遠(yuǎn)鏡進(jìn)行了一次觀測。此處start用作不及物動詞,表示“開始”,故用現(xiàn)在分詞作后置定語,其形式相當(dāng)于which started...。而不定式的一般式多表示將來的動作;若start用作及物動詞,則此處要用被動形式,而B項being started表示正在開始,D項to be started表示將來的動作,均與原題中l(wèi)ast night不符。故選A項。
32.A 考查狀語從句。句意:不管你有多努力,不降低你的飲食量而達(dá)到減肥的目的是困難的。however引導(dǎo)讓步狀語從句,其后要緊跟形容詞或副詞。故A項正確。
33.C 考查動詞的時態(tài)。句意:——我記得你上大學(xué)時是位天才鋼琴師,你能為我彈一下鋼琴嗎?——很抱歉,我已經(jīng)多年沒彈過了。根據(jù)答語可以看出,此處指近幾年到現(xiàn)在一直沒彈過鋼琴,故用現(xiàn)在完成時。
34.D 考查定語從句。句意:關(guān)愛心靈是一個逐漸的過程,在此過程中我們應(yīng)當(dāng)考慮到生活中一些小的細(xì)節(jié)。先行詞為process,在定語從句中作狀語,故用“介詞+關(guān)系代詞(in which)”來引導(dǎo)定語從句。
35.D 考查主謂一致。第一個空的主語為不可數(shù)名詞evidence,故其謂語動詞要用單數(shù)shows;第二個空的主語為use,謂語動詞也要用單數(shù)形式。句意:所有的科學(xué)證據(jù)都表明農(nóng)業(yè)中對化學(xué)品日益增長的使用正損害我們的身體健康。故D項正確。
36.C 根據(jù)第一句中的“a girl asked me”可知,此處作者主要想表達(dá)以前沒有人“問”過“我”這個問題。face“面臨”; guess“猜想”; ask“提問”; imagine“想象”。根據(jù)語境可知C項正確。
37.B “我”的手無意中抬了起來蓋住嘴巴,但是她卻看著“我”,誠心盼著“我”的答復(fù),根據(jù)下文的“I truthfully replied”可知,此處表示“一個答案”。故B項正確。
38.D 她點了點頭然后走開了,把“我”扔下獨自思索是不是人們只看到“我”的有著大縫隙的牙齒。根據(jù)句中的“saw only gappy teeth”可知此處表示“看”。hear of “聽說”; think of“想到,想起”; talk about“談?wù)摗?look at “看,打量”。故D項正確。
39.A 回家后,“我”開始思考“我”的牙齒,心情沮喪。根據(jù)下文的“I thought...”可以看出,此處表示作者的內(nèi)心感受。consider “考慮,細(xì)想”;brush“刷”;cover“覆蓋”;appreciate“欣賞,感激”,根據(jù)句意,A項正確。
40.B 母親注意到了一切然后過來安慰“我”。admit“承認(rèn)”;notice“注意到”;control “控制”;change“改變”。根據(jù)句意,B項符合語境。
41.A 牙有缺口,并沒有什么可擔(dān)心的,不要讓其成為心理負(fù)擔(dān)。worry about “擔(dān)憂”;put off“推遲”;give up“放棄”;wipe out“消滅,擦掉”。根據(jù)上下文可知A項正確。
42.C 承接上文,母親勸說如果感覺這很重要可以進(jìn)行手術(shù)以改變現(xiàn)狀,但是還是真實一點吧。如果通過手術(shù)都能達(dá)到美的效果,那么每個人都是一模一樣的了。美在于與眾不同。friendly “友好的”;lovely“可愛的”;honest“誠實的”;helpful“有益的,有幫助的”。根據(jù)上下文可知,此處表示不做手術(shù),保持原樣,故C項正確。
43.A 根據(jù)上文可知,母親的安慰讓“我”重新認(rèn)真思考“我”的牙齒,自然此處指的是words“話語”。joke“笑話”;dream“夢,夢想”; act“行為”,均不符合語境。
44.D “我”意識到這對“我”來說有多重要,它也是“我”身份的一部分。ability“能力”;decision“決定”;goal“目標(biāo)”;identity“身份”。根據(jù)語境可知D項正確。
45.C 當(dāng)今許多人做一些荒唐可笑的事來達(dá)到“完美”,事實是人無完人。possibility“可能性”; purpose“目的”; truth“事實,真相”;choice“選擇”,根據(jù)句意可知C項正確。
46.D 如果所有潛在的丑的東西都被清除了,那么所有潛在的美的東西也不復(fù)存在了。與ugliness相對的是beauty。
47.B 如果那個女孩再問有關(guān)“我”牙齒的事,“我”會真實的告訴她,這很可愛。與開頭相呼應(yīng),此處表示再一次,故用again。
48.we 49.should 50.a 51.others 52.in 53.and 54.not
55.What
56.C 細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文章第二段第三句“I pulled out my phone to read a text message from my mom saying that we were leaving for Christmas shopping for him when I came across...”可知,作者在讀母親發(fā)的手機短信時有了給父親一份特殊禮物的想法。故C項正確。
57.A 細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第二段第三句及第六句中的“The flower...inspired me”可知作者在讀手機短信時無意中發(fā)現(xiàn)一張鮮花配有小詩的相片,這給了作者靈感。故A項符合原文信息。
58.D 詞義猜測題。根據(jù)此處前一句中的“The poem was written by Edgar Allan Poe;my dad recited it as mush as he did the other.”可以看出,it在此句中指的是艾德加·艾倫·坡寫的詩。
59.D 細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)倒數(shù)第二段最后可以看出作者選中了兩首詩后又精挑細(xì)選了圖片,以配合詩歌所表達(dá)的主題,最終將其打印出來作為給父親的圣誕節(jié)禮物。
60.B 主旨大意題。文章開頭便提出問題,然后以自己給父親用心選擇禮物的親身經(jīng)歷告訴大家用心的禮物才是最有價值的。
61.C 細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第一則廣告中最后一句“The Centre also runs two life drawing classes for which there is a small fee.”可知,此處D項正確。
62.B 細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第二則廣告中第二段首句“The multi-branched Torch Aloe here is impressive. The African plant...”可知,Torch Aloe是一種植物。根據(jù)第三段中“...,a plant more commonly known as the Venus Flytrap that feeds on insects and...”可知,Venus Flytrap也是種植物。故B項正確。
63. B 細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第三則廣告中第一段最后一句“He spent a great deal of time walking in the village”可知他花了大量時間在村子里散步。故此處B項正確。
64.A 細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第三則廣告中第二段“A couple of miles past Grantchester in the south Cambridgeshire countryside, the pool is surrounded by beautiful circular paths around the fields.(拜倫潭位于劍橋郡南部鄉(xiāng)村格蘭切斯特幾英里處,周圍是環(huán)繞田野的美麗的環(huán)形小路)”可知A項正確,排除B、C項。根據(jù)最后一句“...Virginia Woolf—over a century after Byron, she reportedly took a trip to swim in the same pool”可知弗吉尼亞·伍爾芙并不是發(fā)現(xiàn)拜倫潭的人,只是繼拜倫之后,在此游過泳,故排除D項。
65.A 主旨大意題。根據(jù)文章首句“Still seeking a destination for your weekend break?There are some places which are probably a mere walk away from your college”可知,這三則廣告都是提供給大學(xué)生周末休閑的。故A項正確。
66.C 主旨大意題。第一段中主要介紹哈佛大學(xué)發(fā)明的這種新型材料其靈感來自于動物的外殼,其用途廣泛,低耗環(huán)保,是塑料的替代品。它由蝦殼及絲蛋白制成,因此被命名為“shrilk”,其特點是輕薄、透明、柔韌、結(jié)實。不難看出第一段主要介紹的是這種新材料的主要特性,其他選項都不全面。
67.A 推理判斷題。根據(jù)第二段的內(nèi)容可以看出,這種新材料最主要的優(yōu)勢是可生物降解。塑料耐用但不環(huán)保,在垃圾場需要花好幾百年才能將其降解,故如何合理使用成為人們關(guān)注的一個問題。因此A項正確。
68.D 細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第四段中“Shrilk has great potential...Materials from which it is made are plentiful in nature, found in everything ranging from shrimp shells, insect bodies to living plants”可以看出這種材料潛力很大,其制作原料都來自于大自然,因此原料充足。故D項正確。
69.B 細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)最后一段“...so they’re exploring ways to use it in wet environments.”可以看出,科學(xué)家正在探索在潮濕環(huán)境下這種材料的使用。故B項正確。
70.D 主旨大意題。本文為科技說明文,開篇點題,介紹了這種可替代塑料的新型材料的性能等問題,D項概括具體、全面。
71.River Control 72.Reasons 73.supply 74.agriculture 75.flooding 76.deepening 77.stabilizing 78.shortening 79.dam construction 80.the environment
81.He wanted to save up money and buy his own car.
82.The manager particularly expected them to offer fast service with a friendly smile.
83.He loves his co-workers and all the customers know who he is.
84.He learned teamwork,devotion,and staying positive in rough situations.
