I had the meanest (最刻薄的) mother in the world. While other kids ate candy for breakfast, I had to have cereal (谷类食物), I had to eat a sandwich. But at least I wasn’t alone. My sister and two brothers had the same mean mother as I did.
My mother knew where we were at all times. She knew who our friends were.
We had to wear clean clothes and take a bath every day. The other kids got to wear the same clothes for days.
We had to be in bed by 9:00 pm and get up at 8:00 am. We couldn’t sleep till noon like our friends. So while they slept our mother gave us work to do. We had to wash the dishes, make beds and learn to cook. I was sure she stayed awake at night, thinking up mean things to do to us.
Through the years, things didn’t improve a bit. We could not lie in bed “sick” like our friends did in order to miss school.
My mother was the meanest mother. All of us went on to higher education. None of us have ever done bad things. She forced us to grow up into educated and honest people. I am trying to raise my children like this. I will feel proud when my children call me mean, because you see, I am so glad I had the meanest mother in the whole world.

Do you listen to the songs that your parents like? You probably think the music that they like is old and dull but the songs you like are more popular and interesting.
But researchers at the University of Cambridge, the UK, collected data (资料) from more than 250,000 people over the past 10 years. They noticed that as people age, their social circumstances (环境) change, and so does their music taste. There are three musical periods that people pass through as they grow. The first period comes in the teenage years, during which time people like rock because people regard themselves as independent individuals (个体).
But as people move into early adulthood, their lifestyle changes—they get to know more people and want to build close relationships with others. As a result, they prefer pop which is often played at parties.
When middle age comes, people like to listen to jazz and classical. They also like country and folk, “During this period of life, many people often feel tired because of their work and family, and there is a requirement for relaxing and emotive (动情的) music.” said Jason Smith, a research member.
You must be thinking: “Aren’t there old people who still love rock music?” Of course there are. But Jason Smith explained that their reasons for listening to rock music may have changed. “We use music for different reasons,” he said, and at that age people may listen to remind themselves of their youths.
8. What does the underlined word “dull” in paragraph 1 most probably mean?
A. boring B. tiny C. valuable D. safe
9. What kind of music does a teenager probably like?
A. Pop. B. Rock. C. Jazz. D. Classical.
10. What does the underlined word “they” refer to?
A. The people who are very old. B. The people who are in middle age.
C. The people who are very young. D. The people who move into early adulthood.
11. According to Jason Smith, why do the people in middle age like to listen to the country music?
A. Because this kind of music can make them feel relaxed.
B. Because they want to build close relationships with others.
C. Because they regard themselves as independent individuals.
D. Because they want to make more friends with others in this way.

On Wednesday, August 7th, China got its first-ever gold medal in artistic swimming at the Paris Olympic Games.

第三部分 书面表达(共两节, 满分30分)
第一节 阅读表达(共5小题;每小题2分, 满分10分)
阅读下面短文,完成短文后的问题。
If you spend some time in an English speaking country you might hear the term “etiquette”. It means normal and social behavior. This may seem like a difficult word at first, but it can be very useful to understand.
Etiquette is not the same in every culture or in every situation. For example, standing very close to the person you are talking with is quite common in some Asian countries. However, if you do this in Europe, some people might feel uncomfortable. Even in China, we all know that etiquette is not the same in all situations. Perhaps we think that talking loudly in our own homes is fine, but there are other places where talking loudly is not allowed. For example, most people would agree that talking loudly in a library, a museum or a movie theater is impolite. Even if you are with your friends, it is better to keep your voice down in public places.
If we see someone breaking the rules of etiquette, we may politely give them some suggestions. One of the most polite ways is to ask someone, “Would you mind doing this?” or “Would you mind not doing that?” People don’t usually like to be criticized, so we have to be careful how we do this.
Although rules of etiquette can often be different, some rules are the same almost everywhere in the world! For example, dropping litter is almost never allowed. If you see someone you know doing this, you can ask him, “Would you mind picking it up?”
41. What does the underlined word “etiquette” probably mean?
__________________________________________________
42. What’s the main idea of Paragraph 2?
__________________________________________________
43. If your friend talks loudly in the museum, what would you say to him/her?
__________________________________________________
44. In which countries can people stand close to the person they are talking with?
__________________________________________________
45. What does the writer think of “etiquette” in the last paragraph?

第三部分 书面表达(共两节, 满分30分)
第一节 阅读表达(共5小题;每小题2分, 满分10分)
阅读下面短文,完成短文后的问题。
If you spend some time in an English speaking country, you might hear the term “etiquette”. It means normal and social behavior. This may seem like a difficult word at first, but it can be very useful to understand.
Etiquette is not the same in every culture or in every situation. For example, standing very close to the person you are talking with is quite common in some Asian countries. However, if you do this in Europe, some people might feel uncomfortable. Even in China, we all know that etiquette is not the same in all situations. Perhaps we think that talking loudly in our own homes is fine, but there are other places where talking loudly is not allowed. For example, most people would agree that talking loudly in a library, a museum or a movie theater is impolite. Even if you are with your friends, it is better to keep your voice down in public places.
If we see someone breaking the rules of etiquette, we may politely give them some suggestions. One of the most polite ways is to ask someone, “Would you mind doing this?” or “Would you mind not doing that?” People don’t usually like to be criticized, so we have to be careful how we do this.
Although rules of etiquette can often be different, some rules are the same almost everywhere in the world! For example, dropping litter is almost never allowed. If you see someone you know doing this, you can ask him, “Would you mind picking it up?”
41. What does the underlined word “etiquette” probably mean?
__________________________________________________
42. What’s the main idea of Paragraph 2?
__________________________________________________
43. If your friend talks loudly in the museum, what would you say to him/her?
__________________________________________________
44. In which countries can people stand close to the person they are talking with?
__________________________________________________
45. What does the writer think of “etiquette” in the last paragraph?
__________________________________________________
【答案】41. It means normal and social behavior.
42. Etiquette is not the same in every culture or in every situation.
43. Would you mind not talking loudly here? /Would you mind speaking in a low voice? /Would you mind keeping your voice down?
44. In some Asian countries.
45. Although rules of etiquette can often be different, some rules are the same almost everywhere in the world!
【解析】
【导语】本文主要介绍了“礼仪”的定义以及各个国家“礼仪”规则的异同。
【41题详解】
根据“It means normal and social behavior.”可知,“etiquette”意思是指正常的社会行为。故填It means normal and social behavior.
【42题详解】
根据“Etiquette is not the same in every culture or in every situation.”及整段内容可知,本段主要讲述了礼仪在每种文化或每种情况下的不同。故填Etiquette is not the same in every culture or in every situation.
【43题详解】
根据“If we see someone breaking the rules of etiquette, we may politely give them some suggestions. One of the most polite ways is to ask someone, ‘Would you mind doing this?’ or ‘Would you mind not doing that?’”可知,如果你的朋友在博物馆大声说话,可以建议他说话小声点。故填Would you mind not talking loudly here? /Would you mind speaking in a low voice? /Would you mind keeping your voice down?
【44题详解】
根据“standing very close to the person you are talking with is quite common in some Asian countries”可知,在一些亚洲国家,人们可以与交谈的人站得很近。故填In some Asian countries.
【45题详解】
根据“Although rules of etiquette can often be different, some rules are the same almost everywhere in the world!”可知,作者认为各国之间的礼仪可能经常不同,但有些规则在世界各地都是一样的。故填Although rules of etiquette can often be different, some rules are the same almost everywhere in the world!

【答案】例文:
Dear Tom,
I’m very happy to hear that you’re coming to China next week Let me tell you something about customs and manners in our country.
As we all know, different countries have different customs. So the manners in China are very different from those in your country. First, Chinese are supposed to shake hands when we meet for the first time. Then we greet each other. After that, you can talk about something relaxing. But you are not supposed to talk about someone’s salary, age and so on. Second, we couldn’t begin to eat until all the people are here. We use chopsticks to have meals and you shouldn’t point at others with your chopsticks at the table. I hope you’ll have a wonderful time in China.
Look forward to your reply.
Yours,
Li Hua
