A

Zhang Wenchi is a 19-year-old student of Hubei Xiangyang No.1 High School. He is very brave and always helps others in need.

On March 26, 2012, Zhang donated bone marrow (骨髓) at the Navy General Hospital of Beijing. He is the youngest and the first high school student to do it. Last April, Zhang became a blood donor on his 18th birthday. He also joined the China Marrow Donor Program that day. Six months later, his bone marrow was chosen as a match for a 4-year-old leukemia (白血病) patient from Fujian.

Zhang was studying for the National College Entrance Examination (NCEE) when the call from the Chinese Bone Marrow Donors came. He found out that the patient could not wait, or things might get worse. With the support of his family and school, Zhang arrived at the hospital in Beijing the very next day.

“Saving a life is more important than taking an exam, and having the chance to help cure a patient does not allow for more thought,” Zhang said.

The transplant operation was a success. After that, Zhang Wenchi was in good health and he came back to school soon. Zhang said then the most important task for him was the exam. He hoped that his dream of becoming a pilot could come true.

Now the NCEE has been over for more than a month, and what about Zhang Wenchi’s marks? To our great relief, it’s known that he has earned 540 points, which means he can be admitted into Beihang University (formerly Beijing University of Aeronautics & Astronautics). Therefore he can realize his dream of flying in the sky.

Zhang’s deed has earned him nationwide respect, and some have given him the nickname, “the most beautiful post-90s student”.

21. Which of the following about Zhang Wenchi is right?

A. He was born on March 26, 1993.

B. He donated bone marrow at a hospital in Xiangyang.

C. He is the first university student to donate bone marrow.

A. he is a little unreasonable              B. he is very active and outgoing

C. he is very kind and determined          D. he is always ready to give up exams

23. What’s the main idea of the last but one paragraph?

A. Zhang Wenchi’s points and our anxiety.

B. Zhang Wenchi’s points and his future education.

C. Zhang Wenchi is sure to fly in the sky tomorrow.

D. Beihang University has already decided to admit him.

24. What’s the best title for the passage?

A. Zhang Wenchi’s college dream

B. A 19-year-old student gave up exams

C. A 4-year-old leukemia patient was save

D. Zhang Wenchi---the most beautiful post-90s student

25. The text is most probably taken from ______.

B

There was once an 11-year-old boy who went fishing every time he went to an island in the middle of a New Hampshire lake.

On the day before bass(巴斯鱼) season opened, he and his father were fishing early in the evening, catching other fish with worms. Then he tied on a small silver lure(鱼饵) and put it into the lake. Suddenly the boy felt something very big pulling on the lure. His father watched with admiration as the boy skillfully brought the fish beside the bank. Finally he lifted the tired fish from the water. It was the largest one he had ever seen, but it was a bass.

The boy and his father looked at the big fish. The father lit a match and looked at his watch. It was 10 pm — two hours before the season opened.He looked at the fish, then at the boy.    “You’ll have to put it back, son,” he said.

“Dad!” cried the boy. “There will be other fish,” said his father. “Not as big as this one,” cried the boy. He looked around the lake. No other fishermen or boats could be seen in the moonlight. He looked again at his father.

Even though no one had seen them, nor could anyone ever know what time he had caught the fish, the boy could tell from his father’s voice that the decision couldn’t be changed.He threw the huge bass into the black water.

The big fish disappeared.The boy thought that he would never again see such a big fish.

That was 34 years ago. Today the boy is a successful architect in New York City. He often takes his own son and daughters to fish at the same place.

And he was right. He has never again caught such a large fish as the one he got that night long ago. But he does see that same fish ... again and again ... every time he has an ethical (道德的) decision to make. For, as his father had taught him, ethics are simple matters of right and wrong. It is only the practice of ethics that is difficult.

26.How did the father feel when he saw his son skillfully pulling a big fish out of the water?

A.Delighted.  B.Nervous.    C.Embarrassed.   D.Shocked.

27.What happened when it became clear that the big fish was a bass?

A.The boy and his father discussed what to do with the big fish.

B.The boy threw the bass back into the water willingly.

C.The father made a decision that the fish must be set free.

D.They worried other fishermen might know what they had done.

28.From the text we know that       .

A.the father didn’t love his son    B.the father always disagreed with his son

C.the father disliked the huge fish    D.the father was firm and stubborn

29.The successful architect went fishing with his children at the same place because       .

A.they might catch a big fish there

B.he remembered the moral lesson from his father

C.he wanted to remember his father

D.their children enjoyed fishing there

30.What does the author want to show in the story?

A.It is easy to say something, but difficult to do.

B.An ethical decision is not difficult to make.

C.It is hard to tell right from wrong sometimes.

D.Fishing helps you to make right ethical decisions.

C

Many people think that listening is a passive business. It is just the opposite. Listening well is an active exercise of our attention and hard work. It is because they do not realize this, or because they are not willing to do the work, that most people do not listen well.

Listening well also requires total concentration upon someone else. An essential part of listening well is the rule known as ‘bracketing’. Bracketing includes the temporary giving up or setting aside of your own prejudices and desires, to experience as far as possible someone else’s world from the inside, stepping into his or her shoes. Moreover, since listening well involves bracketing, it also involves a temporary acceptance of the other person. Sensing this acceptance, the speaker will seem quite willing to open up the inner part of his or her mind to the listener. True communication is under way and the energy required for listening well is so great that it can be accomplished only by the will to extend oneself for mutual growth.

Most of the time we lack this energy. Even though we may feel in our business dealings or social relationships that we are listening well, what we are usually doing is listening selectively. Often we have a prepared list in mind and wonder, as we listen, how we can achieve certain desired results to get the conversation over as quickly as possible or redirected in ways more satisfactory to us. Many of us are far more interested in talking than in listening, or we simply refuse to listen to what we don’t want to hear.

It wasn’t until toward the end of my doctor career that I have found the knowledge that one is being truly listened to is frequently therapeutic(有疗效的) In about a quarter of the patients I saw, surprising improvement was shown during the first few months of psychotherapy(心理疗法), before any of the roots of problems had been uncovered or explained. There are several reasons for this phenomenon, but chief among them, I believe, was the patient’s sense that he or she was being truly listened to, often for the first time in years, and for some, perhaps for the first time ever.

31. The phrase “stepping into his or her shoes” in paragraph 2 probably means _______.

A. preparing a topic list first     B. focusing on one’s own mind

C. directing the talk to the desired results  D. experiencing the speaker’s inside world

32. What is mainly discussed in Paragraph 2?

A. How to listen well.      B. What to listen to.

C. Benefits of listening.      D. Problems in listening

33. According to the author, in communication people tend to ________.

A. listen actively       B. listen purposefully

C. set aside their prejudices     D. open up their inner mind

34. According to the author, the patients improved mainly because _______.

A. they were taken good care of.    B. they knew they were truly listened to.

C. they had partners to talk to.    D. they knew the roots of problems.

35. What type of writing the article likely to be?

A. Science fiction  B. A news report.  C. A medical report.  D. Popular science

根据短文内容，从短文后的七个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。

So it is exam time once again! Everyone, whether a kid or an adult, has at least a little bit of pressure of exams, and it is just that

some show it while others do not. So the most important tip is to relax and not take too much stress.    36    Here are some study tips for high school students as well as study tips for college students.

37

The most common mistake that students make is that they start studying a day or two before exams! No portion can be covered, not even halfway, if you study only two days before exams. So what most of the students do is study only the so-called important points. As a result, even if the paper is easy, you get a low score only because you didn't know the entire contents!    38    If time does not permit you to learn your lessons, at least go through them regularly. This way you will be familiar with the syllabus and won't find it difficult to understand then at the last minute.

Follow effective techniques

There are some easy techniques to study well, like read the lesson casually, at least twice. And while reading, mark the important points with a pencil and move on.   39    Before going to exams, read only the underlined points. This is one of the last minute study tips for exams.

Relaxation techniques

Don’t study continuously instead of taking some breaks. Just go for minimum 5 minutes to maximum 8 minutes breaks needed an hour in your studies.   40    During an exam, use a few minutes before you are allowed to begin to do some simple relaxation and breathing exercises, sit back and separate yourself mentally from those who are getting anxious.

A. Study beforehand

B. Prepare a good timetable

C. So start studying at least a month before the exams.

D. It will make your mind fresh and active, then you will find interest in studying

E. Revising for exams is about more than just reading through the notes you made in class.

F. But a little bit of pressure is always necessary, as it is good for us and helps us perform well

G. When you start reading for the second time, read those underlined points first and then the rest of the text

The Eager Hope of the Parents

In the picture, the boy who scored 80 in his exam is being scolded by his mother, because she thinks his grade isn't good enough.

As we all know, each family is encouraged to have only one child in China.On one hand, parents take care of every thing for them; on the other hand, they expect them to get good marks at school. Some of them are pushed so hard that they even lose interest in their lessons.

In my opinion, children should be encouraged to study instead of just being forced to do that，at the same time, I also hope all parents can understand their children and let them fly by themselves.

阅读详解

26.A有文章第二段“His father watched with admiration(赞美, 羡慕)as the boy skillfully brought the fish beside the bank. ”可以看出：看到儿子很熟练的把一条大鱼拉出水面时，父亲是非常高兴的。

27.C由文章第二段父亲所说的“You’ll have to put it back, son,”可知。

28.D由第五段“the boy could tell from his father’s voice that the decision couldn’t be changed.”可以看出，他父亲是很坚定和固执的(firm and stubborn)。

29.B由最后一段的“every time he has an ethical (道德的) decision to make. For, as his father had taught him, ethics are simple matters of right and wrong. It is only the practice of ethics that is difficult.”可以看出，他父亲在当年让他放巴斯鱼时所给他上的道德课(moral lesson)使他事业有成，至今记忆犹新。

30.A由文章最后一句话可知。

【语篇解读】本文是一篇科普文，题材是关于聆听。许多人对于聆听的理解可能就是一种被动的接受，但本文向我们阐释了聆听和我们所理解的恰恰相反，聆听是一种极其主动的思维活动，真正的聆听意味着我们摒弃个人的偏见和喜好，站在他人的位置去感受他人的内心世界，只有当说话者感受到被接受后，真正的交流才得以实现，才可以使我们的交流更加高效和愉悦，同时也指出聆听在病人心理疗方面的意义。

段落 关键词 句 大意推测

第一段(pa ra.1) Passive, an active exercise, attention and hard work, realize, willing 聆听不是我们所理解的被动的接受，而是需要付出专注和努力的积极活动。

第二段(para.2--3) Concentration, Bracketing, stepping into his or her shoes, acceptance, Sensing, open up the inner part , True communication, lack this energy, listening selectively, desired results, satisfactory, more interested 聆听需要专注说话者，让说话者感觉到被接受，融入到说话者的内心世界，通常聆听者总是倾向于选择性的聆听，以期待交流按照我们的意愿达到令人满意的结果。

第三段(para.4) Being truly listened to, frequently, therapeutic,

surprising improvement, the roots, the patient’s sense, for the first time 当病人感知到被真正聆听时，在没有暴露出任何问题根源之前，居然很多人病情居然都有了很大的改善，这种现象应该主要是病人感受到了他们被真正的聆听的原因。

【解析】

31.D。细节理解题。难度: 中等。由第二段Bracketing includes …, to experience as far as possible someone else’s world from the inside可知：这个短语其实就是对此句的转化表述，上下文都在围绕专注于聆听着要专注于说话者，让说话者感觉到被接受，融入到说话者的内心世界。

32. A。判断推理题。难度：中等。第二段第一句“Listening well also requires total concentration upon someone else.”是本段的key sentence，真正的聆听要求专注于说话者，本段下文均围绕，解释如何做才是真正的聆听，因此答案为A选项。

33.B。细节理解题。难度：难。根据题意，可以定位到第三段第二句“Even though … what we are usually doing is listening selectively.”即使我们感觉我们在认真听，而事实是在交流中我们通常是在加以选择性聆听，所以本题答案B为正确。

34. B。细节理解题。难度：中等。由路标词可以定位到最后一段最后一句“…but chief among them, I believe, was the patient’s sense that he or she was being truly listened to ..”众多原因中，作者认为最主要的原因就是病人知道他们被真正的聆听，故而答案B正确。

35. D。判断分析题。难度: 中等。本文主要是向人们说明作为一个真正的聆听者，我们不可以作为一个被动的接受者，而是要成为和如何做我们才能成为积极的真正聆听者，最后一段则通过实例说明真正的聆听在心理治疗上的重要性。因此，本文是在向我们宣讲大众科学，所以D选项为正确答案。

答案详解

41.B go ahead表示先走，或用于答应某人的请求; watch it(尤指在危险情况下告诫某人)注意留神;make it <口>达到预定目标。由语境可知:Amy和迎面跑来的一男孩相撞，小男孩提醒她“小心”。

42.C由语境：小男孩发现Amy 走路有点跛后，脸上露出不怀好意的笑(a silly smile)然后握住(take hold of)自己的腿，模仿她跛行。

43.D由下文可知，事发后Amy 径直向教室走去(head for)，没有责备(blame)他，也没有责骂(scold)他，更没有打(beat)他。所以此处选ignore(不理睬)。

44.D由上文小男孩的行为(模仿她跛行)可知，这种行为应是不友善的(unfriendly)。

45.C由最后一句“(请求圣诞老人)让她拥有一天不被嘲笑的日子”可知：每一天(every single day)都有人嘲笑她。

46.A由59空后的“the way I walked and run and talk”可知。

47.A由文意可知：Amy已厌烦了(be tired of)每一天都有人嘲笑她。free from没有...的; be angry with生某人的气;be satisfied with对……满意的均不符合文意/搭配。

48.B有文意：有时在教室里当着全体同学的面，这种嘲笑使他完全无孤独助(all alone)了。这里all用作副词，表示完全地;全然地。

49.C形容词辨析。 calm镇定沉着的、不慌乱的;eager 热心的，渴望的;quiet安静的，沉默的;pleased 高兴的。有上文Amy在学校的经历和感受，可以推断回家后的表现应是默默无语的。

50.A结合上文，以及back home,可以看出应是在学校里不大顺利。

51.C看着女儿心事重重，做母亲的马上想到和她分享(share …with)几条令人兴奋的消息。

52.D由57空后的wish 可知：一家无线广播电台正在进行圣诞节愿望征集比赛(a Christmas wish contest)。

53.C这里是一个祈使句+and结构。

54.B someone(某人)用于肯定句，此处就是指的Amy。

55.B听完妈妈幽默的话语，及对自己的肯定和鼓励，Amy当然得笑(smile)了。

56.A这一段是全家人对Amy想问圣诞老人要的礼物的猜测，另外57和58两空间的一句话也提到了Amy的爸爸猜想她可能想要一本图画书。故选guess。

57.C top此处意为：处于…的最前头。

58.D由语境可知，全家人的积极猜测来看，他们都很想知道Amy想要什么礼物，但是Amy却不愿意(wasn’t ready to)告诉大家她的愿望，因为那是秘密的(secret。)

59.D由语境可知：大家嘲笑“我”是由于(because of)“我”(脑瘫造成的)行走、跑及说话的方式。

60.B见45。

Text 10

I flew to New York to take care of some business with Mr. Smith. But as soon as I arrived, I got sick, and could not meet with him. I had to call our appointment off. Then when I felt better I thought about visiting him at his home, but he lived too far away. I tried to telephone him during

office hours, but he was busy. His secretary said that Mr. Smith would call me back, but he didn't. I gave up trying to make a new appointment because it would take more time and efforts than I wanted to spend.  A few days later, I saw a man on the street who looked like Mr. Smith, and I called out to him. It was someone else. When I returned to my hotel that day, I found a message which said that Mr. Smith had gone out of town on some sudden unexpected business. I was sorry that I had missed seeing him, but I was really enjoying my sightseeing in New York.
