If not, please follow us and explore some of the most beautiful caves from around the world! Marble Caves Located in the center of Lake General Carrera, the Marble Caves in Chico, Chile, are only accessible by boat. The surrounding crystal clear waters allow visitors to see the rock formations beneath them while the rock ceilings above change color(depending on the writer levels and the season). The best time to visit: during sunrise and sunset, when the sun’s rays light up the cave walls, making it an experience to remember. Reed Flute Cave Reed F1ute Cave known as “the Palace of Natural Arts” is located in the northwest of Guilin in southern China.The limestone cave offers a grand fairyland of stalactites(钟乳石), stone pillars, stone curtains, birds, plants and animals in fantastic shapes and colors. Fingal’s Cave This incredible sea cave is located on the uninhabited island of Staffa in Scotland. The cave’s size, shape, and naturally—arched(拱形的) roof combine with the waves to create strange sounds that enhance its cathedral—like atmosphere. The Blue Grotto The Blue Grotto is the symbol of Capri. It is a sea cave found on the coast of the island and is a well-known spot to all who visit the area. This cave is unique for its brilliant blue light which comes from two sources: the entrance to the cave and a bigger hole beneath the entrance. When viewed from inside the cave, the entrance appears as a brilliant white light just above the waterline, while the underwater hole, which is the larger source of light, provides a blue light. 21. Why is sunset the best time to visit Marble Caves? A. Because it has enough light in it. B. Because it has the most beautiful scenery. C. Because it is surrounded by clear waters. D. Because boats are only available at sunset. 22. Which cave will you go to if you want to enjoy the strange sound? A. Reed F1ute Cave. B. Marble Caves. C. The Blue Grotto. D. Fingal’s Cave. 23. What is special about the Blue Grotto? A. C1ear waters. B. Various birds and animals. C. Bright blue light. D. Strange shapes. B I lost my mom last month and it's been really tough. I flew to my hometown to pay my respect and say goodbye. After spending a few days with my family, it was time to head back. I boarded the plane to find a young man sitting in my seat. Usually it's not a big deal to me, but I really wanted that window seat so I could just put on my headphones and sleep. He agreed politely when I asked him to move, all the while I was apologizing repeatedly. After the doors were closed and we began to move to the runway, the emotions began to hit-something about leaving the place I grew up and knowing that my mom was no longer there just destroyed me. My vision became vague（模糊的）as my eyes filled with tears. As I wiped them away, I felt a tap on my elbow. That same young man was checking on me. He asked me if I was OK and I said something like having to say goodbye to someone who I really loved. Without hesitation, he said he was there if I needed to talk. After all, we would have a three-hour flight sitting in the same row. I told him that I wasn't ready to talk, but that his words had made me feel better. I felt like I wasn't alone on that plane traveling many miles across the country. Although I never took up his offer, I was touched that a stranger knew that I might need some-one at that moment. I was grateful that this guy was willing to give me all of his time. It doesn't take much to make someone feel that they are on this earth for a reason and that they do matter. 24. Why did the author make an apology to the young man? A. She demanded he move to his own seat. B. She had taken his seat by mistake. C. She had blocked his sightseeing view. D. She had disturbed his sound sleep. 25. How did the author feel when the plane was taking off? A. Delighted. B. Frightened. C. Frustrated. D. Relieved. 26. What was the young man's offer to the author? A. To have a medical treatment on her. B. To chat with her during the flight. C. To give her a tap on the elbow. D. To change seats with her if necessary. 27. What's the main idea of this passage? A. Leaving hometown is sorrowful. B. Comfort from others is priceless. C. Talk to strangers is delightful. D. Little kindness can make a difference. C It's school time again! You're probably feeling excited and maybe a little sad that summer is over. Some kids feel nervous or a little scared (害怕的) on the first day of school because of all the new things: new teachers, new friends, and even a new school. Luckily, these “new" worries only stay for a little while. Let's find out more about going to a new school. Most teachers kick off the new school year by introducing themselves and talking about all the things you'll be doing that year. Some teachers give students a chance to tell something about themselves to the rest of the class, too. When teachers do the talking on the first day, they often go over classroom rules and school rules so you'll know what's allowed and what's not. Please pay close attention. You might already know a lot of people in your class on the first day,but it's a great day to make new friends, so try to say hello to kids you know and the new ones that you don't. Make the first move and you'll be glad you did, and so will your new friends! Seeing old friends can make the first day an exciting one. You can make the day special by wearing clothes that you really like. Maybe you got a great T-shirt on one of your vacations, or a pair of shoes. It also can make you feel good to be prepared and have all the things you need, such as pencils, folders, and whatever else you'll be needing. But make sure that you pack (打包) them the night before in case you don't have time in the morning. 28. What does the the underlined phrase “kick off” in paragraph 2 probably mean? A. Discuss. B. Experience. C.Explain. D.Start. 29. How do you probably feel if you happen to see an old friend on the first day of school? A. Nervous. B.Lucky. C.Happy. D.Upset. 30.What do you usually do on the first day of school according to the text? A. Learn about school rules. B.Visit your former teachers. C.Pack your new clothes up. D. Go over your new lessons. 31.What does the last paragraph mainly talk about? A. What to know about a new school. B. How to prepare for a new school. C. What to do on your first day of school. D. How to make friends on your first day of school. D What is the place of art in a culture of inattention? Recent visitors to the Louvre report that tourists can now spend only a minute in front of the Mona Lisa before being asked to move on. Much of that time, for some of them, is spent taking photographs not even of the painting but of themselves with the painting in the background. One view is that we have made tourism and gallery-going so easy that we have made it effectively impossible to appreciate what we’ve travelled to see. In this society, experience becomes goods like any other. There are queues to climb Everest as well as to see famous paintings. Thus, leisure is considered as hard labour rather than relaxation. In the rapidly developing society, what gets lost is the quality of looking. Consider an extreme example, the late philosopher Richard Wollheim. When he visited the Louvre he could spend as much as four hours sitting before a painting. The first hour, he claimed, was necessary for incorrect impression to be removed. It was only then that the picture would begin to disclose itself. This seems unthinkable today, but it is still possible to organise. Even in the busiest museums there are many rooms and many pictures worth hours of contemplation (沉思) which the crowds largely ignore. Marcel Proust, another lover of the Louvre, wrote: “It is only through art that we can escape from ourselves and know how another person sees a universe which is not the same as our own and whose landscapes would otherwise have remained as unknown as any there may be on the moon.” If any art remains worth seeing, it must lead us to such escapes. But a minute in front of a painting in a hurried, harried (烦扰) crowd won’t do that. 32. Why does the author mention the example in Louvre in Paragraph 1? A. To express his concern about Louvre. B. To report the popularity of Mona Lisa. C. To introduce a good place to take photos. D. To show a disappointing current situation. 33. Which of the following will Richard Wollheim agree? A. People need to clear up their misunderstanding of paintings. B. People have to stay at least 4 hours when appreciating paintings. C. It is impossible for modern people to admire paintings attentively. D. The longer one admires the paintings, the more unlikely he loves them. 34. What role does art play in our life according to Marcel Proust? A. Art is of help for us to accept ourselves better. B. Art makes our life more colourful and meaningful. C. Art allows us to know the world in the view of others. D. Art pushes us away from ourselves and explores the moon. 35. Which is the best title of the passage? A. Into art attentively. B. Escape from ourselves. C. Beyond art completely. D. Go to the museums often. 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余的选项。 How to Sleep Better What you do（or don't do）before bedtime has significant impact on the quality of your sleep. 36.___________ Here are a few suggestions: Go from light to dark. Darkness stimulates production of the sleep hormone.37._____ And think about investing into warm light that you can use in the bed-room before bedtime. 38._________Keep the bedroom a technology-free zone as the light from electronic devices can disturb your sleep.

They have tales to tell and lessons to teach for any who have the openness to watch, 41 and learn. We have three roosters（公鸡）, each with a different personality and a different voice. Stew is 42 the leading rooster. He has the "perfect" voice and star looks, suitable for 43 in a movie. Typical of his kind, he is well aware of his talent and appearance. Stew often sings at 4:00 AM to 44 the dawn before this part of the globe has even thought of circling to it. He looks after the hens, knowing that he has important work to do. Another of our roosters is Smoker. He may not have "the sound" or "the look", but he takes his place in the order of things without giving evidence of 45 or ingratitude. He is the one who 46 looks for danger and makes a(n) unpleasant sound like coughing when he thinks there’s a(n) 4 7 nearby. The third rooster is Rocky. One morning I heard a sound that made me 48 out of the house. I thought one of the birds was in horrible pain. Fortunately, there were no 4 9 . I realized that Rocky was learning to sing. Rocky didn't seem 50 that his call was not perfect. None of the other chickens or roosters 51 him or told him to be quiet. None of them said, "Stew sounds so much better than you do." Even if Smoker forever sounds like he has problems with his lung and Rocky always sounds like he is in screaming agony(痛苦), it just wouldn’t be 52 without the calls of all three of the roosters. I enjoy hearing them all, even if Stew often wakes me up and the other two sound ill. Perhaps no human choir would accept a member with such a voice as Smoker or Rocky, but everyone has 53 gifts, and nobody is better than anybody else because of our talents. Some people have beautiful bodies. Some people have the talent to sing songs or 54 stories or create magnificent artwork. Some have the talent to help others feel secure. Others are just finding out what talents they have to offer. So, we can 55 a lot from nature if we have eyes to see, ears to hear, and brains enough to pay attention. 41. A. spot B. find C. recognize D. listen 42. A. originally B. generally C. definitely D.occasionally 43. A. featuring B. showing C. playing D. shooting 44. A. predict B. tell C. forecast D. anticipate 45. A. envy B. respect C. trust D. doubt 46. A. obviously B. typically C. regularly D. absolutely 47. A. enemy B. partner C. companion D. follower 48. A. walked B. stormed C. crawled D. rushed 49. A. quarrels B. debates C. injuries D. accidents 50. A. proud B. considerate C. upset D. content 51. A. cared for B. laughed at C. focused on D. looked down 52. A. dusk B. evening C. midnight D. morning 53. A. unique B. awesome C. similar D. specific 54. A. take up B. make up C. draw up D. put up 55. A. receive B. expect C. take D. learn 第二节（共10小题;每小题1.5分，满分15分） 阅读下面短文，在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。 What do the Summer Palace, Yuanmingyuan and the Chengde Mountain Resort all have in common?

Grandpa was drawing a customer's foot onto a piece of paper. He didn't look up. Miguel sat down. He looked at the cut leather, hammer and other tools. The tools reminded Miguel of something else he loved. Grandpa always gave him a piece of candy whenever Miguel helped clean up. Miguel knew he wasn't supposed to take candy without asking. But he was hungry then. It looked like Grandpa would be busy for a while. “Maybe I don't need to wait,” Miguel thought. Miguel reached secretly for the candy box. He hurried and put it in his mouth. Pretty soon, the customer left. Grandpa was busy picking up a piece of leather and putting it in some water. Miguel ate the rest of the candy as far as he could. Then he walked over to Grandpa. Grandpa looked up from his work. “Hello!” he said with a smile. Miguel hugged Grandpa. He hoped Grandpa couldn't tell he'd eaten a piece of candy. “It looks like you're busy today,” Miguel said. “Do you need any help?” “Sure! Could you pass me that thread?” Miguel nodded. He pulled it between his hands. “Wow, that's strong,” Miguel said. Grandpa laughed, “It has to last through the wear and tear of life.” Grandpa pulled the thread through the leather. “You know, we need to be more like this shoe,” Grandpa said. Miguel looked at the leather, “Um. We do?” “Yes, indeed. We need to stay strong. That way，temptations（诱惑）won＇t make us fall apart，”Grandpa said with a nod. Miguel suddenly thought of the candy. He knew he should tell Grandpa about it. Grandpa took an old shoe off the shelf and said, “See this big hole?” Miguel nodded. “This was once a small hole that could have been fixed easily. But the owner waited, and now it's going to be much harder to fix. Bad habits and bad choices are like that hole. It is best to fix them early." 注意：1. 续写词数应为150左右； 2. 请按如下格式在相应位置作答。 Paragraph 1: Miguel watched while Grandpa was working.

The whole time, Miguel kept thinking about the candy.When Grandpa finished,Miguel helped him clean up. Then Grandpa reached for his box of candy as usual. Miguel's heart beat a bit faster, worrying that Grandpa might find a piece of candy missing. Finally, Miguel couldn't take it anymore. “I took one piece of your candy without asking,” he said, and hung his head in shame. Grandpa set down the box in surprise and wondered what had actually happened. Miguel told him all about taking the candy. “I'm so sorry,Grandpa! I'll never do it again. I promise!” Grandpa hugged Miguel and kissed him lovingly. Miguel felt so much better.“My dear grandson, thank you for being honest. That is more important to me than anything else, I'm proud of you!” On the way home, Miguel felt just like one of Grandpa's new pairs of shoes, strong and ready for life, determined never to do any-thing that might ruin the “shoes”. 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
