二、阅读理解（共4题，共 20分）

21、 The Top one has to be climate change. Greenhouse gases can stay in the environment for hundreds, even thousands of years and governments have been too slow to react-- you can't reverse the effects from one day to the next. Worst case scenario(情形)？ As northern countries warm up, insects will migrate there bringing a chain of deadly illness such as malaria (疟疾) and plagues. The probability of more frequent and stronger hurricanes will increase, with devastating consequences—not least of which will be the huge damage- repair costs, to say nothing of the loss of lives. It’s high time we took preventative action—before it’s too late!

Nick, London

People go on about climate change but for me, the worst offender is child labour. It’s unthinkable that it still persists in this day and age! Working in a sweatshop to produce a trendy pair of trainers for some westerns, or cheap clothing, is no kind of life for a young person. The statistics speak for themselves: seventy-three million ten-to fourteen year-olds form part of the workforce worldwide—in countries such as Mali that’s fifty-four percent of children in that age group, in India it’s forty-one percent of the same age group. We need more pressure groups to campaign against importing goods made by underage workers and to support organizations such as Fairtrade that promote ethical trade and fair wages for adults.

Maria, Rome

World population has already passed the seven billion mark and it’s growing increasingly fast. Currently over 925 million people—that’s almost one in seven—have an insufficiently daily diet(less than 2100 calories a day) and this figure is going up by ten million a year! The worst-hit countries are poverty-stricken ones such as those in west Africa, Haiti and Mongolia, but conflict in places such as Sudan or Iraq has also caused widespread starvation. If this is happening when the world actually produces enough food to feed everyone (as it does presently) what will happen in the near future? We need a long-term solution—and fast.

Kelvin, Sydney

【1】What is the purpose of the passage?

A.To raise people’s awareness of climate change.

B.To call for preventive action to be taken immediately.

C.To share personal ideas on what global problem to address.

D.To urge the public to come up with possible solutions to global concerns.

【2】 Fairtrade mentioned by Maria is probably a(n) ________.

A.association that advocates the rights for labourers.

B.organization that promotes equal pay for child labourers

C.pressure group to campaign against importing cheap goods

D.Sweatshop to produce trendy pairs of trainers for westerners

【3】What is the biggest concern of Kelvin from Sydney?

A.More conflicts will occur due to starvation

B.There is an increasing need for high calories food.

C.The growth of population will exceed food output.

D.The number of poverty-stricken countries is on the rise.

22、In most developed countries the government provides free education for children because it realizes that educated citizens are useful to the country in their later life. Most countries also have private (私立的)education. This means that parents can pay to send their children to certain schools. People who agree with this system say that it gives parents a larger choice of schools. Other people think that private schools give the children who go to them an unfair advantage over other children.

At the age of three, many children go to nursery school. Two or three years later, they enter a primary school. At the age of 11 they go to a secondary school. Then they may have a chance .of continuing their studies at a university or college.

Universities and colleges are places where some young people go to continue their education after leaving school. Most university students study one main subject, though they may also study a number of others. Teaching is usually by lectures, or by discussions between a lecturer and students.

Most students stay at university for three or four years. At the end of that, they take an examination. If they pass, they receive their Bachelor’s degree, usually a BA, which is short for Bachelor of Arts, or a BS for Bachelor of Science. Some students study for several more years in order to get higher degree, such as a MA or a PhD

Most university courses don’t train students to do a certain job. Colleges, on the other hand, usually teach skills which enable students to follow a career（职业）, such as clothing design, or business studies.

【1】The passage mainly tells us_______.

A.Something about the private schools in developed countries

B.How developed countries pay attention to education

C.Some general information about education in developed countries

D.Why education is important

【2】Why do most developed countries provide free education to children?

A.Because the children don’t have money to go to school.

B.Because the government want their citizens to be useful to the country.

C.Because education doesn’t cost the country too much money.

D.Because there are not enough private schools.

【3】In the first paragraph the underlined word “citizen” refer to________.

A.the cities B.members of a country

C.the children D.people who lives in cities

【4】Which of the following statement is true according to the passage?

A.All the university students study one subject.

B.After studying at the university for three or four years, all the students can get a Bachelor’s degree.

C.Students usually receive a master’s degree before receiving a Bachelor’s degree.

D.Unlike university, colleges usually teach students some useful skills for a career

23、Research suggests that only around 8% of people feel they achieve their goals. That means around 92% don't. The question is: How do the 8% make it? 【1】. But two of the most important components are making a plan and making a commitment to work on the plan. If you're ready to realize your goals, here are some tips on how to create a plan and achieve your goals.

【2】. When it comes to goal setting, many people select too many goals. That's unrealistic. Figuring out how to make plans for 10 goals is significantly more challenging than creating plans for3 or 4 goals. 【3】. After all, by selecting fewer goals you can truly focus on them and make real significant progress. So take time to pick 3 or 4 main goals you want to work on right now.

Select the necessary actions to achieve your goal. For example, if you need to talk to 10 people to make two sales, what do you need to do to find 10 people? If you need to have 100 leaders to find10 people to talk to, what will you do to find 100 leaders? Make a list of tasks that need to be completed. 【4】.

Once you have your daily schedule and targets to shoot for during the process of working on your goal, 【5】. Do the daily tasks you've assigned yourself to do. Set aside time every month or so to evaluate how well your plan is working, and adjust it if you're not making the progress you want.

A．Less is more here

B．Select your current main goals

C．begin taking action and follow through

D．make appropriate changes in your timeline

E．Many factors go into whether or not goals are reached

F．These can change over time or change as you accomplish them

G．Then take time to put them into your schedule by making a daily plan

24、 When was the last time something important slipped your mind？Maybe it was the answer to a test question，the name of an acquaintance or where you left your keys. Fortunately，memory can be improved so they won’t happen that often. People’s memory has much to do with training and practice. Applying effective means will help improve your memory so that you can access everything you learn whenever you need it.

When students want to prepare for a test，they often try to study by simply reading over the material again，copying notes，etc. But these methods of remembering are not always helpful. People remember more when actively taking part in their learning rather than passively receiving it.

One great way to do this is to test yourself on the material. Come up with questions about the topic，and try to answer them without looking at your notes. It also helps to try to summarize the material in different ways. You could diagram the information，or you could write your own outline. The more you use the information，the more likely you are to remember it.

When I was 8，I began learning to play the flute(长笛)，and my music instructor said that it’s better to practice for five minutes a day，seven days a week，than for two hours on one day. The same goes for remembering information. The more you spread out the time you spend reviewing information，the more likely you are to remember it.

A psychologist named Hermann Ebbinghaus made an important discovery about memory and forgetting. He found that people tend to forget information in a regular pattern. They forget the most information shortly after learning it. The rate at which they forget then slows down over time. Every time people review the information，it causes them to forget less of it-which means they remember more. So it is vital to review things you want to remember shortly after learning them. Over time，you can review them less and less frequently.

【1】What would happen if something slipped your mind?

A．You let your mind wander.

B．You think of the answer to a question.

C．You fail to remember certain information.

D．You keep a person’s name in mind.

【2】How does the author support his viewpoints in Paragraphs 2 & 3?

A．By making a comparison.

B．By giving a summary.

C．By conducting experiments.

D．By offering examples.

【3】What is the author’s story in Paragraph 4 used to show?

A．Practice makes perfect.

B．Repeated revision is important.

C．It’s vital to insist on what you are fond of.

D．Efforts play a key part in learning.

【4】What is the text mainly about?

A．An explanation of Ebbinghaus’s theory.

B．A description of the learning process.

C．The approaches to improving memory.

D．The relationship between time and memory.

四、书面表达（共1题，共 5分）

26、阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。

My teenage daughter, Jane, always complained about having to be home earlier than all her friends. She would tell me that she was already seventeen. She believed that she was already an adult, yet still had a curfew(宵禁).

“But you are still in high school,” I said one day when she was complaining again.

“You will never trust me!” she yelled.

Before I could continue, she rolled her eyes, entered her bedroom and shut the door.

“How could I make Jane see that I only want to keep her safe?” I sighed.

I decided to go for a walk, hoping the cold air would clear up my mind. I opened the front door and nearly stepped on our small black cat, which seemed like a meatball.

“Hi, Meatball,” I said, taking it into my arms and touching it gently.

Meatball sneezed in my arms. Realizing it was too cold outside, I went inside. Meatball seemed happy enough to stay in the warm house. But after an hour or two, it went to the door and wanted to go outside again.

“Why won’t it just stay in with us all the time?” Nathan, my youngest daughter asked.

I explained to her that it was happy to be here but it liked being able to come and go as it pleased.

“That must be nice,” Jane, who happened to come out for a cup of tea, cut in, “Why the cat, not I, could come and go? Why not give Meatball a curfew, too?”

I turned a deaf ear to her complaint.

Later in the night, temperatures dropped unusually low. Meatball stood at the door, meowing to go outside, again. I shook my head at it, being afraid that it might freeze to death. It looked at me and kept meowing.

“I know you’re not happy, but it's for your own good,” I said, patting its head.

“Mom’s not being mean to you,” Jane told the cat. “She’s just trying to keep you from turning into a frozen meatball,” said Jane, looking at me meaningfully.

We all laughed at the joke.

The next morning, I couldn’t find Meatball. I asked the kids if anyone had seen her.

注意：1.续写词数应为150左右；

2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。

“I let it out last night,” Jane said calmly.

As I drove to the animal hospital, Jane held Meatball inside her coat.
