People love to wear clothes made from cotton because of its breathable comfort. When you enjoy the benefits (好处) it brings, do you know where it comes from? The Indus Valley Civilization (印度河流域文明) is believed to have harvested (收获) cotton for the first time, but China is now the world’s second-largest cotton producer. Xinjiang in the northwest of China is home to the nation’s largest cotton-producing area.
In early September every year, the white hair that grows inside the cotton boll (棉桃). stretches out for more sunlight, as if telling farmers it’s ready to be picked. Harvesting lasts from early September to late October. China produces about 22% of the world’s cotton, of which 87.3% comes from Xinjiang, according to the latest data from the National Bureau of Statistics.
The planting of cotton in Xinjiang dates back to the late Western Han Dynasty. According to historical records, the cotton introduced from West Asia to Xinjiang was the Levant cotton. Cotton soon spread in Xinjiang because of the region’s full sunlight and moderate rainfall, which the plant needs.
Xinjiang is famous for its long-staple cotton (长绒棉), which is popular among customers. In the past, people mainly picked the cotton by hand, but now machines have gradually replaced it. In Xinjiang, nearly 70% of cotton is harvested mechanically (机械化地). The use of machines prevents (防止) the cotton from being polluted and improves its quality (质量).
After bags of cotton are packed and transported to many factories, they become clothes, toys, and others that we see in daily life. Cotton’s versatility (多功能性) has earned it a nickname — “white gold”.
5. According to the first paragraph which of the following is TRUE ?
A. China produces the world’s most cotton now.
B. Clothes made from cotton give people breathable comfort.
C. Xinjiang is believed to have harvested cotton for the first time.
D. Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region is the world’s largest cotton-producing area.

Once upon a time, a teacher and his student lay down under a tree. The student asked the teacher, “Sir, I really don’t know how we ____21____ our friends.”
The teacher thought for a moment and then answered, “It’s a hard and an easy question.” The teacher continued, “Look! There is a lot of grass (草). Why don’t you walk there? Please don’t walk backwards; walk straight ahead (向前). On your way, try to find a blade (片) of ____22____ grass, pick it and give it to me. But just one.”

三、语篇填空(共10小题,每小题1分;满分10分)
阅读短文,在空白处填入一个适当的单词或用括号内所给词的正确形式填空,使短文通顺、连贯。
Have you ever watched a tennis game broadcast (播出) in English? If you have, then you ____31____ (probable) have noticed that the score “40-0” is read as “Forty to love” instead of “Forty to zero.” If ____32____ side scores a point (that is, 0-0), then the score will be “Love-all.”
So how did “love” become a word for “zero” in tennis?
Most people believe this expression ____33____ (come) from French. It is said that the French use the word “l’oeuf” (it means “the egg”) to mean a score of zero. This is similar to calling a score of zero “a duck’s egg” ____34____ British English. When tennis was introduced into England from France, Englishmen also called a score of zero “l’oeuf.” However, some tennis fans didn’t know ____35____ (France). They mispronounced the French word as the English word “love” (the two words are close in pronunciation). Over time, “love” ended up with a new ____36____ (mean): a score of zero.
This is ____37____ (popular) explanation for the term’s origin (起源). Unluckily, researchers haven’t yet found proof (证明) that the French people ever used the word “l’oeuf” to mean “zero.” According to ____38____ (they) studies, the French always call the number “zero.”
Another explanation has been more widely accepted among some researchers. It says this usage came from the expression “to play for love.” Players who fail to score any points don’t care. They play for their love of the game, not just for a wish to win. The researchers have found written records ____39____ (support) this explanation. ____40____ most of the records are about card games, rather than tennis. So far, nobody knows for sure how “love” came to mean “zero” in tennis. More studies are needed to solve this puzzle (不解之谜).

Technology Keeps Grandparents and Grandchildren Connected
When it comes to keeping in touch with grandchildren, grandparents need to learn new technologies. They are taking advantage of choices like video chatting, text messaging and social media (社交网络媒介) to keep in touch with their grandchildren in more ways than ever before, according to a survey.
Mary Taylor is a typical case. She depends on video chatting to stay in touch with her grandchildren, all of whom are under the age of seven. They live in different countries. Mary says video chatting is the next best thing to being with her grandchildren even though it requires planning to schedule calls and taking the time differences into account (考虑到). “It’s not always perfect,” she says, “but it’s certainly better than talking on the phone, especially with kids at those ages.”
According to the survey, more than 20% of grandparents use video chatting to communicate, which is a little less than the number of those who often use text messaging but more than those who prefer to use social media.
But with a number of choices out there keeping up with new technologies can be a challenge for them. 74-year-old Mary Carr-McNally says she calls her grandchildren back when they text her. “I’m not very good at texting, so I call them back, and then we chat,” she says.
In all, more than 30% of them say that learning new technologies is difficult. That’s why phone calls remain the most popular form of communication for grandparents, nearly half of whom say they talk with their grandchildren by phone.
Still, more than 40% of grandparents say they’re good at learning new technologies. Take Alice Smith for example. She owns a laptop, a tablet and a smartphone, and uses them to keep in touch with her five grandchildren aged 4 to 16. She says she likes to text the older three and depends on video chatting with the younger ones.
“Texting is quick and simple. But we can do a lot of things on video chatting,” she says. “If the kids want to see something, I walk around and show them. Video chatting also allows me to see my loved one’s facial expressions as we speak and does not require typing (打字) or reading small print. It’s the next best thing to meeting someone face-to-face.”
41. How does Mary Taylor stay in touch with her grandchildren?
____________________________________
42. Why do phone calls remain the most popular form of communication for grandparents?
____________________________________
43. What does Alice Smith think of texting?

第二部分 非选择题(共40分)
三、语篇填空(共10小题,每小题1分;满分10分)
阅读短文,在空白处填入一个适当的单词或用括号内所给词的正确形式填空,使短文通顺、连贯。
Have you ever watched a tennis game broadcast (播出) in English? If you have, then you ____31____ (probable) have noticed that the score “40-0” is read as “Forty to love” instead of “Forty to zero.” If ____32____ side scores a point (that is, 0-0), then the score will be “Love-all.”
So how did “love” become a word for “zero” in tennis?
Most people believe this expression ____33____ (come) from French. It is said that the French use the word “l’oeuf” (it means “the egg”) to mean a score of zero. This is similar to calling a score of zero “a duck’s egg” ____34____ British English. When tennis was introduced into England from France Englishmen also called a score of zero “l’oeuf.” However, some tennis fans didn’t know ____35____ (France). They mispronounced the French word as the English word “love” (the two words are close in pronunciation). Over time, “love” ended up with a new ____36____ (mean): a score of zero.
This is ____37____ (popular) explanation for the term’s origin (起源). Unluckily, researchers haven’t yet found proof (证明) that the French people ever used the word “l’oeuf” to mean “zero.” According to ____38____ (they) studies, the French always call the number “zero.”
Another explanation has been more widely accepted among some researchers. It says this usage came from the expression “to play for love.” Players who fail to score any points don’t care. They play for their love of the game, not just for a wish to win. The researchers have found written records ____39____ (support) this explanation. ____40____ most of the records are about card games, rather than tennis. So far, nobody knows for sure how “love” came to mean “zero” in tennis. More studies are needed to solve this puzzle (不解之谜).
【答案】31. probably
32. neither
33. came 34. in
35. French 36. meaning
37. the most popular
38. their 39. to support
40. But
【解析】
【导语】本文讲述了在网球比赛中人们称零分为“Love-all”的由来。
【31题详解】
句意:如果你有,那么你可能已经注意到分数“40-0”读作“四十比爱”而不是“四十比零”。此处用副词修饰动词notice,probable的副词为probably。故填probably。
【32题详解】
句意:如果双方都没有得分(即0-0得分),那么比分将是“全赢”。根据“side scores a point (that is,0-0),”可知,比赛双方都没有得分,表示否定,用neither。故填neither。
【33题详解】
句意:大多数人认为这个表达来自法语。此处是过去发生的事情,用一般过去时,come的过去式为came。故填came。
【34题详解】
句意:这类似于英国英语中把零分叫做“鸭蛋”。考查介词短语in English“用英语”。故填in。
【35题详解】
句意:然而,一些网球迷不懂法语。根据France可知,其英语表达“法语”用French。故填French。
【36题详解】
句意:随着时间的推移,“爱”最终有了新的含义:得分为零。根据空前的形容词可知,填入名词,mean意为“意味着”,动词;meaning是名词,意为“意思”。故填meaning。
【37题详解】
句意:这是对该术语起源最流行的解释。根据“for the term’s origin (起源).”可知,对该术语起源最流行的解释,用形容词的最高级,popular的最高级为the most popular。故填the most popular。
【38题详解】
句意:根据他们的研究,法国人总是称这个数字为“零”。根据studies可知,这里用they的形容词性物主代词,表示“他们的”,用their。故填their。
【39题详解】
句意:研究人员已经找到了支持这一解释的文字记录。分析句子结构可知,这里用不定式作目的状语,support意为“支持”,动词不定式为to support。故填to support。
【40题详解】
句意:但大多数记录都是关于纸牌游戏的,而不是网球。根据“most of the records are about card games,”可知,但大多数记录都是关于纸牌游戏的,but表示转折,放在句首,首字母大写。故填But。

Technology Keeps Grandparents and Grandchildren Connected
When it comes to keeping in touch with grandchildren, grandparents need to learn new technologies. They are taking advantage of choices like video chatting, text messaging and social media (社交网络媒介) to keep in touch with their grandchildren in more ways than ever before, according to a survey.
Mary Taylor is a typical case. She depends on video chatting to stay in touch with her grandchildren, all of whom are under the age of seven. They live in different countries. Mary says video chatting is the next best thing to being with her grandchildren even though it requires planning to schedule calls and taking the time differences into account (考虑到). “It’s not always perfect,” she says, “but it’s certainly better than talking on the phone, especially with kids at those ages.”
According to the survey, more than 20% of grandparents use video chatting to communicate, which is a little less than the number of those who often use text messaging but more than those who prefer to use social media.
But with a number of choices out there, keeping up with new technologies can be a challenge for them. 74-year-old Mary Carr-McNally says she calls her grandchildren back when they text her. “I’m not very good at texting, so I call them back, and then we chat,” she says.
In all, more than 30% of them say that learning new technologies is difficult. That’s why phone calls remain the most popular form of communication for grandparents, nearly half of whom say they talk with their grandchildren by phone.
Still, more than 40% of grandparents say they’re good at learning new technologies. Take Alice Smith for example. She owns a laptop, a tablet and a smartphone, and uses them to keep in touch with her five grandchildren aged 4 to 16. She says she likes to text the older three and depends on video chatting with the younger ones.
“Texting is quick and simple. But we can do a lot of things on video chatting,” she says. “If the kids want to see something, I walk around and show them. Video chatting also allows me to see my loved one’s facial expressions as we speak and does not require typing (打字) or reading small print. It’s the next best thing to meeting someone face-to-face.”
41. How does Mary Taylor stay in touch with her grandchildren?
____________________________________
42. Why do phone calls remain the most popular form of communication for grandparents?
____________________________________
43. What does Alice Smith think of texting?
____________________________________
44. In your opinion, which is the best way for grandparents to keep in touch with their grandchildren? Why? (List at least two reasons)
____________________________________
【答案】41. She depends on video chatting to stay in touch with her grandchildren.
42. Because learning new technologies is difficult for them.
43. Texting is quick and simple.
44. I think the best way is video chatting. Because it can not only allow grandparents to see their loved ones’ facial expressions, but also let grandparents walk around to show something for their grandparents.(答案合理即可)
【解析】
【导语】本文主要讲述了随着科技的发展,祖父母和孙辈保持联系的方式不仅仅是打电话,有些祖父母学习新科技,但有些祖父母仍然认为学习新科技对他们来说是非常困难的。
【41题详解】
根据“Mary Taylor is a typical case. She depends on video chatting to stay in touch with her grandchildren”可知,她依靠视频聊天与孙辈们保持联系,故填She depends on video chatting to stay in touch with her grandchildren.
【42题详解】
根据“In all, more than 30% of them say that learning new technologies is difficult. That’s why phone calls remain the most popular form of communication for grandparents”可知,因为学习新科技对他们来说很困难,故填Because learning new technologies is difficult for them.
【43题详解】
根据“Take Alice Smith for example…Texting is quick and simple”可知,发短信既快捷又简单,故填Texting is quick and simple.
【44题详解】
开放性题,答案合理即可。参考答案为I think the best way is video chatting. Because it can not only allow grandparents to see their loved ones’ facial expressions, but also let grandparents walk around to show something for their grandparents.

It is impossible for a person not to make mistakes in his life. If you make a mistake, please correct it in time, even if it’s just a small mistake.
Once a time in a math exam, I met a difficult problem that I couldn’t solve. I found that Xiaoming next to me quickly got the answer. So I planned to copy his answer. I finally did this at last. I got a high score in that exam. Later on, I felt very uneasy. I admitted my mistake to my math teacher and the head teacher, but they didn’t criticize me. From then on, I worked hard and in the end, my math grades have improved quickly.
