For the blanks with a given word, fill in each blank with the proper form of the given word; for the other blanks, use one word that best fits each blank. The last time a female British scientist won the Nobel Prize for chemistry was in1964. Her name was Dorothy Crowfoot Hodgkin. 21 her, only two women had won the Chemistry prize: Marie Curie in 1911, and her daughter Irene Joliot-Curie in 1935. Hodgkin was born in Cairo, Egypt in 1910, as the eldest of four daughters of John Crowfoot and his wife Molly. The girls were sent back to England when the First World War broke out. By the time she was 11 years old, Dorothy’s schooling had been a bit hit and miss. But she had spent a term 22 (learn) to grow crystals (晶体), and chemistry had enthralled her. At the Sir John Leman School, she had to fight to be allowed to take chemistry, which was seen as a “boys’ subject.” But she did well, and in 1928 she entered Somerville College, Oxford Universiy, to do a chemistry degree. At every stage her parents, particularly her mother, encouraged her ambitions. No one ever said to her, as they did to other clever girls at the time, that 23 she was too brainy she’d never get a husband. It was in a book her mother gave her 24 Dorothy learned about the technique of X-ray crystallography (X射线晶体学). It’s a way of working out 25 a complex molecule is arranged in three dimensions. She immediately decided that was   26 she wanted to do. Hodgkin was the most important leader and innovator in her field. The impact of her work led to her becoming the only female British scientist 27 (win) a Nobel Prize so far. The 1964 award recognised her work in discovering the 3D shapes of penicillin (盘尼西林) and vitamin B12. Accurate knowledge of the shape of penicillin was very important in understanding how it 28 overcome bacterial infections. Her work is still of great significance in the development of new antibiotics. They are currently badly needed as some bacteria 29 (develop) resistance to existing drugs. Hodgkin’s work also had a huge impact on the treatment of diabetes. In 1969, after 35 years of hard work, she figured out the 3D shape of the insulin (胰岛素) molecule. Insulin is an important hormone (激素) used by the body to process sugars in food. Understanding 30 structure is significant for human diabetes control. Hodgkin was not only an exceptional scientist but also was, and continues to be, an inspirational role model to generations of researchers, both male and female. Section B Directions: Fill in each blank with a proper word chosen from the box. Each word can be used only once. Note that there is one word more than you need. A．emphasize   B．misunderstanding   C． reflect       D．referred    E. contract      F. attached         G. occurring      H. oppose  I. civilization    J. concerning       K. attractive The most difficult part of a Western-Chinese marriage is the cultural differences. The traditional Chinese culture is established on the Confucian philosophy, while the western culture is based on ancient Greek 31 . Cultural differences exist in almost every aspect and therefore 32 also on relationships and marriage. From the traditional Chinese point of view, marriage is a relationship 33 many aspects such as family, friends and relatives, while from the Western point of view, marriage is a 34 signed between two people that is based on trust and love. Furthermore, Westerners’ marriages 35 more the independence and privacy of the couple. That is why Westerners sometimes cannot understand why we Chinese need to our relatives if we are asked to do so. Chinese need to maintain their “face” and “relations”. Even in relationship, we are somehow still 36 to our family and relatives. Our partner has to understand it and at least does not 37 it. It is not easy to maintain Chinese-Western relationship. Cultural differences may result in 38 . Young Asian ladies are fond of western men because they believe they are more gentlemanly and in addition their appearances are more 39 . Western men may think Chinese ladies are gentler and more feminine. My suggestion for the cross-culture relationship is always trying to put yourself in other’s shoes: accepting rather than changing; always respecting your partner but clarifying your own red lines; showing your interest in his/her different culture and carefully commenting on it and so on. There are more and more cross-culture marriages 40 recently. I would like to take this chance to sincerely wish them the very best in their love journeys. III. Reading Comprehension (45分) Section A Directions: For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A. B.C and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context People often say that “failure is the mother of success.” This cliché (陈词滥调) might have some truth to it, but it 41 tells us how to actually turn a loss into a win, says Emmanuel Manalo, a professor of educational psychology at Kyoto University in Japan. As a result, he says, “we know we shouldn’t give up when we fail—but 42 , we do.” Manalo and Manu Kapur, a professor of learning sciences at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology Zurich, put together a special issue of the journal Thinking Skills and Creativity last December on 43 failure. The issue’s 15 studies provide teachers and educational researchers with a guide for 44 success. One study reported, for example, that the sooner and more often students fail at a task, such as building a robot, the sooner they can 45 and improve. Another confirmed that feedback on failures is most 46 when the giver comes across as caring, and the receiver is prepared to weather negative emotions. Manalo and his co-authors also contributed their own study focused on overcoming one fundamental, everyday form of failure: not 47 a task. They asked 131 undergraduates to write an essay about their school experiences. Half of the students received 48 for structuring their writing, and half were left to their own devices. All, however, were 49 prior to finishing. Afterward the researchers found that those in the structured group were more motivated to complete their essays, compared with those who lacked guidance—even if the latter were 50 to being done. Knowing how to finish, 51 , was more important than being close to finishing. The researchers dubbed this finding “the Hemingway effect,” for the author’s self-reported 52 to stop writing only when he knew what would happen next in the story—so as to avoid writer’s block when he returned to the page. Manalo believes that learning how to fail temporarily can help people avoid becoming 53 failures at many tasks, such as completing an essay, learning a language or inventing a new technology. Demystifying failure and teaching students not to 54 it make goals more attainable, says Stephanie Couch, executive director of the Lemelson-MIT Program, a nonprofit organization dedicated to developing and supporting inventors. Couch, whose work was also featured in the special issue, 55 that we “should really be thinking of failure as part of a process of going forward toward success.” 41．A．undoubtedly B．vividly C．hardly D．intentionally 42．A．in reality B．by contrast C．with question D．after all 43．A．running into B．accounting for C．contributing to D．benefiting from 44．A．celebrating B．evaluating C．achieving D．predicting 45．A．move forward B．stand by C．dash backward D．run away 46．A．instant B．constructive C．informal D．sincere 47．A．assigning B．reporting C．handling D．completing 48．A．grants B．approval C．instructions D．training 49．A．stopped B．examined C．notified D．guided 50．A．subject B．closer C．devoted D．crucial 51．A．in other words B．moreover C．nevertheless D．in particular 52．A．reluctance B．eagerness C．tendency D．ability 53．A．inevitable B．perceived C．worthwhile D．permanent 54．A．comprehend B．fear C．overcome D．pursue 55．A．adds B．recalls C．doubts D．challenges Section B Directions: Read the following three passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read. A My aunt Edith was a widow of 50, working as a secretary, when doctors discovered she had got what was then thought to be a very serious heart illness. Aunt Edith didn’t accept defeat easily. She began studying medical reports in library and found an article in a magazine about a well-known heart doctor, Dr. Michael Debakey, of Houston, Texas. He had saved the life of someone with the same illness. The article said Dr. Debakey’s fees were very high; Aunt Edith couldn’t possibly pay them. But could he tell her of someone whose fee she could pay? So Aunt Edith wrote to him. She simply listed her reasons for wanting to live: her three children, who would be on their own in three or four years and among them a little girl who always dreamed of traveling and seeing the world. There wasn’t a word of self-pity -- only warmth and humor and the joy of living. She mailed the letter, not really expecting an answer. A few days later, my doorbell rang. Aunt Edith didn’t wait to come in; she stood in the hall and read aloud: Your beautiful letter moved me very deeply. If you can come to Houston, there will be no charge for either the hospital or the operation. Signed: Michael Debakey That was seven years ago. Since then, Aunt Edith has been around the world. Her three children are happily married. For her age, she is one of the youngest, most alive people I know. 56．“Aunt Edith didn’t accept defeat easily” means that . A．she was very beautiful B．she was very strong C．she was very brave D．she was very warm hearted 57．Why did Aunt Edith write to Dr. Debakey? Because . A．she had no time to visit him B．she didn’t know the way to Houston C．she didn’t believe in him D．she wanted to get some help from him 58．In fact, Aunt Edith’s letter to Dr. Debakey was full of . A．courage B．illness C．pity D．sadness 59．After reading Dr. Debakey’s letter, Aunt Edith felt . A．discouraged B．frightened C．disappointed D．Encouraged B Each one of us shares this planet with seven billion other individuals. And we all need transportation. The majority of cars, motorcycles, boats and planes cause pollution. They are also noisy. This is a serious problem in many cities. So inventors are coming up with innovative ideas to try to reduce the pollution and noise. By Land In many cities around the world, motorcycles are becoming increasingly popular. Currently, Vietnam has around 33 million motorcycles. China has almost 120 million. The convenience of these motorcycles comes at a cost. Air pollution is a growing problem. In large cities, people often complain it is difficult to breathe. They also complain about the noise. To solve these problems, a U.S. company designed an environmentally friendly motorcycle. It uses electricity as fuel. You can drive it for 40 miles (64 kilometers) before recharging the battery. It is also quiet and fast-60 miles (96 kilometers) per hour. This makes it a good choice for getting around a city. By Water The Italian city of Venice is a city with only a few roads. There are no cars in the city center. Instead of cars, water taxis and buses carry people along the city’s canals. The engines of these boats are simple and cheap. However, they cause pollution, particularly to the water. This causes damage to the city’s buildings. English mechanics Dick Strawbridge and Jem Stans designed a solar-powered water taxi. The solar panels charge three electric batteries. These, in turn, provide power to the engine. The water taxi can carry six passengers. It can run for a day. In the future, solar taxis could be an alternative to Venice’s current taxis. By Air Designing an environmentally friendly airplane is a real challenge. Planes use an enormous amount of jet fuel. This means they cause significant air pollution, and they are very noisy. Some major airplane manufacturers have started to address the problems. They are using cleaner fuels, for example. However, Swiss engineers have gone one step further. They developed a solar airplane — the Solar Impulse. Solar panels cover its wings. These panels provide power to four electric motors and batteries. The batteries allow the plane to fly at night. This plane holds the world record for the longest solar-powered flight — 985 miles (1541 kilometers) from Arizona to Texas in the United States. 60．What do the three innovative ideas proposed have in common? A．They aim to solve traffic problems in big cities. B．They use cleaner energy and cause less pollution. C．They aim to change traditional way of transporting goods. D．They are good will of developed countries to help developing countries. 61．Which of the following statements is TRUE? A．China owns the largest number of motorcycles. B．There are no cars in the center of Venice city. C．Solar-powered water taxi can run for a day with one battery at work. D．The newly designed motorcycle can drive 60 miles after being charged. 62．According to the passage, the distinguished merit of Solar Impulse is ________. A．lighter wings B．less noise C．powerful batteries D．longest solar panels C We are the sum of our actions. I believe that the actions you take determine who you are. But, you say, had an abusive father/mother, I was poor growing up, just wasn’t born smart, I have a disease... All of these things do not make you who you are. They only broaden your knowledge or experience. They are things that happen to you, circumstances. You are not the sum of your circumstances, but of your “action” to them. This is why rich kids become drug addicts or wife beaters; kids from ghetto (贫民窟) become doctors or loving fathers, and everything in between. All walks of life produce all walks of life. So, it is all about your own choices/reactions/actions/behavior, Every human being has within them a mechanism that guides their actions. The more you rebel against your inner guide, the more you tune your selective hearing to the “me” channel, the father down the “bad” side of the scale you will slide. On the other hand, if you not only listen to but act upon, the “universal” channel, the farther up the “good” side of the scale you will fly. Even psychiatrists have in recent years discovered that in order to change thinking, a person must frst change behavior. At first thought, it would seem the opposite is true, it is not. We all have the same range of human emotions. When we feel slighted (被看轻), it sounds in our heads like: “I want to slap them, curse them, get even, and cause them the same pain they caused me. Acting upon these thoughts perpetuates (使继续) cycles of abuse, addiction, and pain. It’s when you choose not to act upon these thoughts, and instead, forgive and heal, that your thoughts and perceptions will start to change also. You change because right actions produce right results. You are choosing to heal properly by forgiving, and accepting life and mankind as it is, and in turn yourself as you are, which is the only way to have peace, joy, and true happiness. I will admit that if you have a parent who accepts you as a whole person, inclusive of “good and bad”, you may have an edge or jumpstart (快速启动) on understanding life, yourself, and others. If you don’t, it may just take you longer to understand, accept, and act on it. Either way, who you are is determined by you, and you are determined by your actions. So, tune in everybody, to that universal channel, and act right! 63．The author argues that an abusive parent a person once had ________. A．affects the reaction he will take in different circumstances B．prevents him from understanding life C．has little to do with what kind of person he is D．determines the tough circumstances he lives in 64．By saying “All walks of life produce all walks of life”, the author means that ________. A．poor children are more likely to succeed in their work B．the occupation a person engages in affects his personality C．wealthy children tend to be spoiled by their parents D．circumstances contribute little to a person’s future success 65．The example of what we think and do when we feel slighted is given to show that ________. A．our behavior is guided by our thought B．human beings share similar emotions C．we have to cultivate our behavior first D．it’s wrong to act upon your thoughts 66．The passage is intended to show us that ________. A．we should accept life and mankind as it is B．everyone is determined by what he does C．understanding life promotes right action D．it is better to have a parent who accepts both your “good and bad” Section C Directions: Read the passage carefully. Fill in each blank with a proper sentence given in the box. Each sentence can be used only once. Note that there are two more sentences than you need.How to Survive High School It may feel impossible to survive even a day of high school, let alone three years.

Nowadays an increasing number of people prefer to adopt these plants to treat their diseases because compared with chemical medicine, herbal medicine has its own advantages. Herbal medicine and remedies (治疗) are more effective than chemical medicine for certain diseases. The chemical medicine given by a chemist could have certain negative side effects. However, many of the herbal medicine and remedies do not have negative side effects. If any, they are softer than chemical medicine. Obesity is the cause of many of the health problems. Herbal medicine can help weight-loss more effectively and improve overall health. However, the cure using herbal medicine and supplements (营养品) would take some time, and therefore people are supposed to possess enough patience. Worse still, herbal medicine contains a variety of ingredients (成分) and people have to be sure that their body agrees with the ingredients and that it is not allergic (过敏的). When used correctly and directed by doctors, herbs can help treat a variety of diseases. But keep in mind that the herbal medicine industry is not regulated, so herbal products are often misleading and may contain additives (添加剂) and that are not listed on the label (标签). Some herbs may cause allergic reactions or interact with other drugs, and some are poisonous if used improperly or at high doses (剂量). Taking herbs on your own increases your risk. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ V.

The heart of the Paradise Ridge community is a large house. Shared meals take place 3 times a week and once a month there’s a meeting when important decisions are made.

For the blanks with a given word, fill in each blank with the proper form of the given word; for the other blanks, use one word that best fits each blank. The last time a female British scientist won the Nobel Prize for chemistry was in1964. Her name was Dorothy Crowfoot Hodgkin. 21 her, only two women had won the Chemistry prize: Marie Curie in 1911, and her daughter Irene Joliot-Curie in 1935. Hodgkin was born in Cairo, Egypt in 1910, as the eldest of four daughters of John Crowfoot and his wife Molly. The girls were sent back to England when the First World War broke out. By the time she was 11 years old, Dorothy’s schooling had been a bit hit and miss. But she had spent a term 22 (learn) to grow crystals (晶体), and chemistry had enthralled her. At the Sir John Leman School, she had to fight to be allowed to take chemistry, which was seen as a “boys’ subject.” But she did well, and in 1928 she entered Somerville College, Oxford Universiy, to do a chemistry degree. At every stage her parents, particularly her mother, encouraged her ambitions. No one ever said to her, as they did to other clever girls at the time, that 23 she was too brainy she’d never get a husband. It was in a book her mother gave her 24 Dorothy learned about the technique of X-ray crystallography (X射线晶体学). It’s a way of working out 25 a complex molecule is arranged in three dimensions. She immediately decided that was   26 she wanted to do. Hodgkin was the most important leader and innovator in her field. The impact of her work led to her becoming the only female British scientist 27 (win) a Nobel Prize so far. The 1964 award recognised her work in discovering the 3D shapes of penicillin (盘尼西林) and vitamin B12. Accurate knowledge of the shape of penicillin was very important in understanding how it 28 overcome bacterial infections. Her work is still of great significance in the development of new antibiotics. They are currently badly needed as some bacteria 29 (develop) resistance to existing drugs. Hodgkin’s work also had a huge impact on the treatment of diabetes. In 1969, after 35 years of hard work, she figured out the 3D shape of the insulin (胰岛素) molecule. Insulin is an important hormone (激素) used by the body to process sugars in food. Understanding 30 structure is significant for human diabetes control. Hodgkin was not only an exceptional scientist but also was, and continues to be, an inspirational role model to generations of researchers, both male and female. 【答案】 21．Before 22．learning 23．if 24．that 25．how 26．what 27．to win 28．could 29．have developed 30．the/its 【导语】本文是一篇人物传记。本文主要介绍了英国女科学家多萝西·霍奇金(Dorothy Crowfoot Hodgkin)的生平和成就，以及她对化学和医学领域的重要贡献。 21．考查介词。句意：在她之前，只有两位女性获得过诺贝尔化学奖：1911年的玛丽·居里和1935年的她的女儿艾琳·约里奥·居里。分析句子，设空处使用介词与后文 her构成介宾短语。根据句意，表示“在……之前”用before。同时该空置于句首，开头单词首字母大写。故填Before。 22．考查非谓语动词。句意：但她花了一个学期的时间学习培育晶体，化学让她着迷。句中spend+时间+(in)+doing为固定短语，意为“花费时间做某事”，此处使用动名词作宾语。故填learning。 23．考查连词。句意：没人像当时对其他聪明的女孩说的那样告诉她，如果她太聪明就嫁不出去。分析句子，设空处引导条件状语从句，根据句意，表示“如果”用if。故填if。 24．考查强调句。句意：多萝西·霍奇金是在母亲给她的一本书里了解到x射线晶体学技术的。分析句子，句中构成强调句结构，即it was+强调部分+that…，此处是对地点状语in a book进行强调。故填that。 25．考查宾语从句。句意：这是一种研究复杂分子如何在三维空间中排列的方法。分析句子，设空处引导宾语从句，引导词在从句中作方式状语，意为“如何，怎样”用how。故填how。 26．考查表语从句。句意：她立刻决定这就是她想做的。分析句子，设空处引导的是表语从句，引导词在从句中作do的宾语，意为“……的事物”用what。故填what。 27．考查非谓语动词。句意：她的工作的影响使她成为迄今为止唯一一位获得诺贝尔奖的英国女科学家。分析句子，句中led为谓语动词，设空处使用非谓语动词，名词scientist前有the only修饰，此处使用不定式结构作后置定语。故填to win。 28．考查情态动词。句意：准确了解盘尼西林的形状对于理解它如何克服细菌感染非常重要。分析句子，根据后文的overcome动词原形可知，设空处应该使用情态动词，结合 was的时态可知，此处表示“能够”用could。故填could。 29．考查动词时态。句意：由于一些细菌对现有药物产生了耐药性，目前急需这些药物。分析句子，设空处使用动词作谓语，此处表示动作发生在过去，对现在有影响，故使用现在完成时。句子的主语为bacteria，为复数形式。故填have developed。 30．考查冠词/形容词性物主代词。句意：了解其结构对人类糖尿病的控制具有重要意义。分析句子，句中structure为名词，此处用定冠词the特指“胰岛素的结构”，也可用形容词性物主代词its指代“它的”，故填the/its。 Section B Directions: Fill in each blank with a proper word chosen from the box.

The traditional Chinese culture is established on the Confucian philosophy, while the western culture is based on ancient Greek 31 . Cultural differences exist in almost every aspect and therefore 32 also on relationships and marriage. From the traditional Chinese point of view, marriage is a relationship 33 many aspects such as family, friends and relatives, while from the Western point of view, marriage is a 34 signed between two people that is based on trust and love. Furthermore, Westerners’ marriages 35 more the independence and privacy of the couple. That is why Westerners sometimes cannot understand why we Chinese need to our relatives if we are asked to do so. Chinese need to maintain their “face” and “relations”. Even in relationship, we are somehow still 36 to our family and relatives. Our partner has to understand it and at least does not 37 it. It is not easy to maintain Chinese-Western relationship. Cultural differences may result in 38 . Young Asian ladies are fond of western men because they believe they are more gentlemanly and in addition their appearances are more 39 . Western men may think Chinese ladies are gentler and more feminine. My suggestion for the cross-culture relationship is always trying to put yourself in other’s shoes: accepting rather than changing; always respecting your partner but clarifying your own red lines; showing your interest in his/her different culture and carefully commenting on it and so on. There are more and more cross-culture marriages 40 recently. I would like to take this chance to sincerely wish them the very best in their love journeys. 【答案】 31．I 32．C 33．J 34．E 35．A 36．F 37．H 38．B 39．K 40．G 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了中西方对婚姻的不同看法，并就中西联姻给出建议。 31．考查名词。句意：中国传统文化建立在儒家哲学的基础上，西方文化建立在古希腊文明的基础上。分析句子可知，空格处应填入名词作宾语。根据前面“the western culture is based on(西方文化以……为基础)”可知，所以“ancient Greek______”的意思应该是“古希腊文明”，故选civilization。所以答案为I。 32．考查动词。句意：文化差异几乎在各个方面都存在，因此也反映在关系和婚姻上。空格处位于“therefore”和“also”之间，所以词性应该是动词，又根据语境，短语“reflect on”意为“反映在……方面”，故选reflect。所以答案为C。 33．考查介词。句意：从中国传统的观点来看，婚姻是一种涉及家庭、朋友、亲戚等多方面的关系，而从西方的观点来看，婚姻是两个人在信任和爱的基础上签订的合同。根据句意，此处指“涉及家庭、朋友、亲戚等多方面的关系”，故选concerning。所以答案为J。 34．考查名词。句意：同上。分析句子可知，空格处应填入名词作表语。根据后面的“signed (签署)”可以推出前面的名词是“contract (合同)”，故选contract。所以答案为E。 35．考查动词。句意：此外，西方人的婚姻更强调夫妻的独立和隐私。空格的位置位于主语名词后面，所以是需要动词作谓语。又根据语境推出此处意思“强调”，故选emphasize。所以答案为A。 36．考查形容词。句意：即使在恋爱关系中，我们仍然以某种方式依附于我们的家庭和亲戚。根据句意，此处指“依附于我们的家庭和亲戚”，固定搭配be attached to“依附”，故选attached。所以答案为F。 37．考查动词。句意：我们的伴侣必须理解它，至少不反对它。分析句子可知，在“does not___”后面需要一个动词原形。根据句意，此处指“至少不反对它”，故选oppose。所以答案为H。 38．考查名词。句意：文化差异可能导致误解。分析句子可知，位于“result in”后面需要名词或者动名词。又根据前面句子“It is not easy to maintain Chinese-Western relationship. ”中的“不容易”可知，这里指“导致误解”，故选misunderstanding。所以答案为B。 39．考查形容词。句意：年轻的亚洲女性喜欢西方男性，因为她们认为西方男性更绅士，而且外表更迷人。空格位于“are more”后面，可知需要填形容词原级。又根据句意，此处指“外表更迷人”，故选attractive。所以答案为K。 40．考查非谓语动词。句意：最近发生了越来越多的跨文化婚姻。本句是There be句型，空格处在副词“recently”之前，应填入非谓语动词。根据句意，此处指“发生了越来越多的跨文化婚姻”，故选occurring。所以答案选择G。 III. Reading Comprehension (45分) Section A Directions: For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A. B.C and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context People often say that “failure is the mother of success.” This cliché (陈词滥调) might have some truth to it, but it 41 tells us how to actually turn a loss into a win, says Emmanuel Manalo, a professor of educational psychology at Kyoto University in Japan. As a result, he says, “we know we shouldn’t give up when we fail—but 42 , we do.” Manalo and Manu Kapur, a professor of learning sciences at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology Zurich, put together a special issue of the journal Thinking Skills and Creativity last December on 43 failure. The issue’s 15 studies provide teachers and educational researchers with a guide for 44 success. One study reported, for example, that the sooner and more often students fail at a task, such as building a robot, the sooner they can 45 and improve. Another confirmed that feedback on failures is most 46 when the giver comes across as caring, and the receiver is prepared to weather negative emotions. Manalo and his co-authors also contributed their own study focused on overcoming one fundamental, everyday form of failure: not 47 a task. They asked 131 undergraduates to write an essay about their school experiences. Half of the students received 48 for structuring their writing, and half were left to their own devices. All, however, were 49 prior to finishing. Afterward the researchers found that those in the structured group were more motivated to complete their essays, compared with those who lacked guidance—even if the latter were 50 to being done. Knowing how to finish, 51 , was more important than being close to finishing. The researchers dubbed this finding “the Hemingway effect,” for the author’s self-reported 52 to stop writing only when he knew what would happen next in the story—so as to avoid writer’s block when he returned to the page. Manalo believes that learning how to fail temporarily can help people avoid becoming 53 failures at many tasks, such as completing an essay, learning a language or inventing a new technology. Demystifying failure and teaching students not to 54 it make goals more attainable, says Stephanie Couch, executive director of the Lemelson-MIT Program, a nonprofit organization dedicated to developing and supporting inventors. Couch, whose work was also featured in the special issue, 55 that we “should really be thinking of failure as part of a process of going forward toward success.” 41．A．undoubtedly B．vividly C．hardly D．intentionally 42．A．in reality B．by contrast C．with question D．after all 43．A．running into B．accounting for C．contributing to D．benefiting from 44．A．celebrating B．evaluating C．achieving D．predicting 45．A．move forward B．stand by C．dash backward D．run away 46．A．instant B．constructive C．informal D．sincere 47．A．assigning B．reporting C．handling D．completing 48．A．grants B．approval C．instructions D．training 49．A．stopped B．examined C．notified D．guided 50．A．subject B．closer C．devoted D．crucial 51．A．in other words B．moreover C．nevertheless D．in particular 52．A．reluctance B．eagerness C．tendency D．ability 53．A．inevitable B．perceived C．worthwhile D．permanent 54．A．comprehend B．fear C．overcome D．pursue 55．A．adds B．recalls C．doubts D．challenges 【答案】 41．C 42．A 43．D 44．C 45．A 46．B 47．D 48．C 49．A 50．B 51．A 52．C 53．D 54．B 55．A 【导语】这是一篇说明文。人们常说“失败是成功之母”。这句话虽然有一定道理，但并没有告诉我们如何化输为胜。文章主要介绍了日本教育心理学教授Manalo的一项研究表明学生越早失败，他们就能越早前进。告诉我们要教会学生不要害怕失败，这会让目标更容易实现。 41．考查副词词义辨析。句意：日本京都大学教育心理学教授伊曼纽尔·马纳洛(Emmanuel Manalo)说，这个陈词滥调可能有些道理，但它几乎不能告诉我们如何真正地把失败变成胜利。A. undoubtedly无疑地；B. vividly生动地；C. hardly几乎不；D. intentionally故意地。根据上文“This cliché might have some truth to it but(这个陈词滥调可能有些道理，但是)”可知，此处与上文是转折关系，所以此处用hardly表示“几乎不”能告诉我们如何把失败变成胜利，符合语境。故选C。 42．考查介词短语辨析。句意：因此，他说，“我们知道失败时不应该放弃——但实际上我们确实放弃了。”A. in reality事实上；B. by contrast相比之下；C. with question带着疑问；D. after all毕竟。分析句意再根据空格前的but可知，此处与上文是转折关系，所以用in reality表示“事实上”我们确实放弃了，符合语境。故选A。 43．考查动词短语辨析。句意：去年12月，马纳洛和瑞士苏黎世联邦理工学院的学习科学教授马努·卡普尔在《思维技能与创造力》杂志上合编了一期从失败中获益的特刊。A. running into撞上、遭遇；B. accounting for解释、占比；C. contributing to有助于；D. benefiting from受益于。根据下文“The issue’s 15 studies provide teachers and educational researchers with a guide(该问题的15项研究为教师和教育研究人员提供了指南)”并结合上文“how to actually turn a loss into a win”可知，这个特刊是从失败中“受益”的特刊，所以此处在介词on后用benefiting from表示“受益于”符合语境。故选D。 44．考查动词词义辨析。句意：该问题的15项研究为教师和教育研究人员获得成功提供了指南。A. celebrating庆祝；B. evaluating评估；C. achieving实现；D. predicting预测。根据空格前的guide和空格后的success可知，介词for后面用achieving表示“实现”成功，构成固定短语achieve success。故选C。 45．考查动词短语辨析。句意：例如，一项研究报告称，学生在制造机器人等任务中失败得越快、次数越频繁，他们就能越早进步和提高。A. move forward前进、进步；B. stand by袖手旁观；C. dash backward落后；D. run away跑开、逃走。此处用move forward表“进步”与and后面的improve构成并列关系。故选A。 46．考查形容词词义辨析。句意：另一项研究证实，对于失败的反馈，当给予者表现出关怀，接受者准备好承受负面情绪时，是最有建设性的。A. instant立刻的；B. constructive建设性的；C. informal非正式的；D. sincere诚挚的。根据下文的“when the giver comes across as caring, and the receiver is prepared to weather negative emotions.(当给予者表现出关怀，接受者准备好经受负面情绪时)”可知，这种情况下对于失败的反馈是最佳状态，即是有建设性意义的。故选B。 47．考查动名词词义辨析。句意：Manalo和他的合著者也贡献了他们自己的研究，专注于克服一种基本的、日常形式的失败：没有完成任务。A. assigning分配；B. reporting报告；C. handling处理；D. completing完成。根据上文的“everyday form of failure”可知，这是一种失败，所以此处用completing与前面的not连用表示“没有完成”任务，符合语境。故选D。 48．考查名词词义辨析。句意：其中一半的学生接受了关于写作结构的指导，另一半则由他们自己决定。A. grants津贴；B. approval赞同；C. instructions指导、说明；D. training培训。根据下文的“structuring their writing(构建他们的写作)”可知，此处应该是指导构建写作，所以此处用instructions表示接受“指导”符合语境。故选C。 49．考查动词词义辨析。句意：然而，所有这些在完成之前都被叫停了。A. stopped停止；B. examined检查；C. notified通知；D. guided指导。根据上文的 however可知，此处是表转折，所以此处用stopped表示“被叫停”符合语境。故选A。 50．考查形容词词义辨析。句意：之后，研究人员发现，与缺乏指导的人相比，结构化组的人更有动力完成他们的论文——即使后者更接近完成。A. subject隶属的，可能受……影响的；B. closer靠近的；C. devoted热衷的；D. crucial至关重要的。根据even if 可知，缺乏知道的人更“接近”完成写作。故选B。 51．考查副词和介词短语辨析。句意：换句话说，知道如何完成比接近完成更重要。A. in other words换句话说；B. moreover此外、而且；C. nevertheless然而、不过；D. in particular尤其、特别。分析句式结构可知，此处是插入语，再分析句意，此处用in other words表示“换句话说”符合语境。故选A。 52．考查名词词义辨析。句意：研究人员将这一发现命名为“海明威效应”，因为作者自我报告称，只有当他知道故事接下来会发生什么时，他才会有停止写作的倾向，从而避免当他回到页面时出现写作障碍。 A. reluctance不情愿、勉强；B. eagerness渴望、热心；C. tendency趋势、倾向；D. ability能力。根据下文“when he knew what would happen next in the story(当他知道故事接下来会发生什么时)”可知，此处指发展趋势和倾向，所以用tendency表示停止写作的“倾向”，符合语境。故选C。 53．考查形容词词义辨析。句意：马纳洛认为，学习如何暂时失败可以帮助人们避免在许多任务中成为永久性的失败，比如完成论文、学习一门语言或发明一项新技术。A. inevitable不可避免的；B. perceived感知到的；C. worthwhile值得做的；D. permanent永久的。根据上文“learning how to fail temporarily”及下文“failures at many tasks, such as completing a dissertation, learning a language or inventing a new technology.(在许多任务上的失败，比如完成论文、学习一门语言或发明一项新技术)”可知，学习暂时性的失败可以避免永久的失败，用 permanent表示“永久的”与前文temporarily对应。故选D。 54．考查动词词义辨析。句意：勒梅尔森——麻省理工项目的执行董事斯蒂芬妮·库奇说，揭开失败的神秘面纱，教学生不要害怕失败，可以让目标更容易实现。勒梅尔森-麻省理工项目是一个致力于开发和支持发明家的非营利组织。A. comprehend理解、领悟；B. fear害怕、畏惧；C. overcome克服；D. pursue追求。根据上文“Demystifying failure(解密失败)”和空格前的not可知，此处用fear与前面的not连用表示教给学生不要“害怕”失败，符合语境。故选B。 55．考查动词词义辨析。句意：库奇的工作也出现在特刊上，他补充说，我们“真的应该把失败视为迈向成功的迭代过程的一部分。”A. adds补充说；B. recalls回忆；C. doubts怀疑；D. challenges挑战。根据上文14题可知，库奇已经说了一句话，所以此处用add指“补充说道”。故选A。 Section B Directions: Read the following three passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read. A My aunt Edith was a widow of 50, working as a secretary, when doctors discovered she had got what was then thought to be a very serious heart illness. Aunt Edith didn’t accept defeat easily. She began studying medical reports in library and found an article in a magazine about a well-known heart doctor, Dr. Michael Debakey, of Houston, Texas. He had saved the life of someone with the same illness. The article said Dr. Debakey’s fees were very high; Aunt Edith couldn’t possibly pay them. But could he tell her of someone whose fee she could pay? So Aunt Edith wrote to him. She simply listed her reasons for wanting to live: her three children, who would be on their own in three or four years and among them a little girl who always dreamed of traveling and seeing the world. There wasn’t a word of self-pity -- only warmth and humor and the joy of living. She mailed the letter, not really expecting an answer. A few days later, my doorbell rang. Aunt Edith didn’t wait to come in; she stood in the hall and read aloud: Your beautiful letter moved me very deeply. If you can come to Houston, there will be no charge for either the hospital or the operation. Signed: Michael Debakey That was seven years ago. Since then, Aunt Edith has been around the world. Her three children are happily married. For her age, she is one of the youngest, most alive people I know. 56．“Aunt Edith didn’t accept defeat easily” means that . A．she was very beautiful B．she was very strong C．she was very brave D．she was very warm hearted 57．Why did Aunt Edith write to Dr. Debakey? Because . A．she had no time to visit him B．she didn’t know the way to Houston C．she didn’t believe in him D．she wanted to get some help from him 58．In fact, Aunt Edith’s letter to Dr. Debakey was full of . A．courage B．illness C．pity D．sadness 59．After reading Dr. Debakey’s letter, Aunt Edith felt . A．discouraged B．frightened C．disappointed D．Encouraged 【答案】56．C 57．D 58．A 59．D 【分析】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述我的姑姑是一个50岁的寡妇，她患上了严重的心脏病，但她没有对生活失去希望，她给著名的医生写信，感动了医生，最后得到救治，现在的生活很美好。 56．推理判断题。根据第二段“She began studying medical reports in library and found an article in a magazine about a well-known heart doctor, Dr. Michael Debakey, of Houston, Texas.（她开始在图书馆里研究医学报告，并在一本杂志上发现了一篇关于德克萨斯州休斯敦的著名心脏病医生迈克尔·德贝基(Michael Debakey)的文章。）”可知姑姑很坚强，没被疾病打倒，寻找救治的方法，故选C。 57．细节理解题。根据第二段“He had saved the life of someone with the same illness. （他救了一个患有同样疾病的人的命。）” 可知这位医生经验丰富，姑姑希望得到帮助，故选D。 58．细节理解题。 根据“There wasn’t a word of self-pity -- only warmth and humor and the joy of living. （没有自怜的字眼——只有温暖、幽默和生活的乐趣。）”，可知信里面都是姑姑生活下去的勇气，故选A。 59．细节理解题。文章末段提到“Since then, Aunt Edith has been around the world.”由此判断姑姑很受鼓舞，开始环游世界，故选D。 B Each one of us shares this planet with seven billion other individuals. And we all need transportation. The majority of cars, motorcycles, boats and planes cause pollution. They are also noisy. This is a serious problem in many cities. So inventors are coming up with innovative ideas to try to reduce the pollution and noise. By Land In many cities around the world, motorcycles are becoming increasingly popular. Currently, Vietnam has around 33 million motorcycles. China has almost 120 million. The convenience of these motorcycles comes at a cost. Air pollution is a growing problem. In large cities, people often complain it is difficult to breathe. They also complain about the noise. To solve these problems, a U.S. company designed an environmentally friendly motorcycle. It uses electricity as fuel. You can drive it for 40 miles (64 kilometers) before recharging the battery. It is also quiet and fast-60 miles (96 kilometers) per hour. This makes it a good choice for getting around a city. By Water The Italian city of Venice is a city with only a few roads. There are no cars in the city center. Instead of cars, water taxis and buses carry people along the city’s canals. The engines of these boats are simple and cheap. However, they cause pollution, particularly to the water. This causes damage to the city’s buildings. English mechanics Dick Strawbridge and Jem Stans designed a solar-powered water taxi. The solar panels charge three electric batteries. These, in turn, provide power to the engine. The water taxi can carry six passengers. It can run for a day. In the future, solar taxis could be an alternative to Venice’s current taxis. By Air Designing an environmentally friendly airplane is a real challenge. Planes use an enormous amount of jet fuel. This means they cause significant air pollution, and they are very noisy. Some major airplane manufacturers have started to address the problems. They are using cleaner fuels, for example. However, Swiss engineers have gone one step further. They developed a solar airplane — the Solar Impulse. Solar panels cover its wings. These panels provide power to four electric motors and batteries. The batteries allow the plane to fly at night. This plane holds the world record for the longest solar-powered flight — 985 miles (1541 kilometers) from Arizona to Texas in the United States. 60．What do the three innovative ideas proposed have in common? A．They aim to solve traffic problems in big cities. B．They use cleaner energy and cause less pollution. C．They aim to change traditional way of transporting goods. D．They are good will of developed countries to help developing countries. 61．Which of the following statements is TRUE? A．China owns the largest number of motorcycles. B．There are no cars in the center of Venice city. C．Solar-powered water taxi can run for a day with one battery at work. D．The newly designed motorcycle can drive 60 miles after being charged. 62．According to the passage, the distinguished merit of Solar Impulse is ________. A．lighter wings B．less noise C．powerful batteries D．longest solar panels 【答案】60．B 61．B 62．C 【导语】本文是应用文。介绍了几款新的减少污染和噪音的交通工具。 60．细节理解题。根据第一段“And we all need transportation. The majority of cars, motorcycles, boats and planes cause pollution. They are also noisy. This is a serious problem in many cities. So inventors are coming up with innovative ideas to try to reduce the pollution and noise.(我们都需要交通工具。大多数汽车、摩托车、船和飞机造成污染。它们也很吵。这在许多城市都是一个严重的问题。因此，发明家们想出了创新的想法，试图减少污染和噪音)”，By Land下第二段的“It uses electricity as fuel. (它使用电力作为燃料)”，By Water下第二段的“The solar panels charge three electric batteries. These, in turn, provide power to the engine.(太阳能电池板为三个电池充电。这些反过来又为发动机提供动力)”和By Air下的“Some major airplane manufacturers have started to address the problems. They are using cleaner fuels, for example. (一些主要的飞机制造商已经开始着手解决这些问题。例如，他们正在使用更清洁的燃料)”可知，提出的三个创新想法，它们使用更清洁的能源，造成更少的污染。故选B项。 61．细节理解题。根据小标题By Water下第一段的“The Italian city of Venice is a city with only a few roads. There are no cars in the city center.(意大利城市威尼斯是一个只有几条道路的城市。市中心没有汽车)”可知，威尼斯市中心没有汽车，B项正确。故选B项。 62．推理判断题。根据最后一段“They developed a solar airplane — the Solar Impulse. Solar panels cover its wings. These panels provide power to four electric motors and batteries. The batteries allow the plane to fly at night. This plane holds the world record for the longest solar-powered flight—985 miles (1541 kilometers) from Arizona to Texas in the United States.(他们开发了一架太阳能飞机——“阳光动力号”。太阳能电池板覆盖着它的翅膀。这些面板为四个电动机和电池提供电力。电池使飞机能在夜间飞行。这架飞机保持着最长太阳能飞行的世界纪录——从美国亚利桑那州到德克萨斯州，飞行了985英里(1541公里))”可推知，阳光动力号的电池使飞机能在夜间飞行一整夜，所以它有强大的电池。故选C项。 C We are the sum of our actions. I believe that the actions you take determine who you are. But, you say, had an abusive father/mother, I was poor growing up, just wasn’t born smart, I have a disease... All of these things do not make you who you are. They only broaden your knowledge or experience. They are things that happen to you, circumstances. You are not the sum of your circumstances, but of your “action” to them. This is why rich kids become drug addicts or wife beaters; kids from ghetto (贫民窟) become doctors or loving fathers, and everything in between. All walks of life produce all walks of life. So, it is all about your own choices/reactions/actions/behavior, Every human being has within them a mechanism that guides their actions. The more you rebel against your inner guide, the more you tune your selective hearing to the “me” channel, the father down the “bad” side of the scale you will slide. On the other hand, if you not only listen to but act upon, the “universal” channel, the farther up the “good” side of the scale you will fly. Even psychiatrists have in recent years discovered that in order to change thinking, a person must frst change behavior. At first thought, it would seem the opposite is true, it is not. We all have the same range of human emotions. When we feel slighted (被看轻), it sounds in our heads like: “I want to slap them, curse them, get even, and cause them the same pain they caused me. Acting upon these thoughts perpetuates (使继续) cycles of abuse, addiction, and pain. It’s when you choose not to act upon these thoughts, and instead, forgive and heal, that your thoughts and perceptions will start to change also. You change because right actions produce right results. You are choosing to heal properly by forgiving, and accepting life and mankind as it is, and in turn yourself as you are, which is the only way to have peace, joy, and true happiness. I will admit that if you have a parent who accepts you as a whole person, inclusive of “good and bad”, you may have an edge or jumpstart (快速启动) on understanding life, yourself, and others. If you don’t, it may just take you longer to understand, accept, and act on it. Either way, who you are is determined by you, and you are determined by your actions. So, tune in everybody, to that universal channel, and act right! 63．The author argues that an abusive parent a person once had ________. A．affects the reaction he will take in different circumstances B．prevents him from understanding life C．has little to do with what kind of person he is D．determines the tough circumstances he lives in 64．By saying “All walks of life produce all walks of life”, the author means that ________. A．poor children are more likely to succeed in their work B．the occupation a person engages in affects his personality C．wealthy children tend to be spoiled by their parents D．circumstances contribute little to a person’s future success 65．The example of what we think and do when we feel slighted is given to show that ________. A．our behavior is guided by our thought B．human beings share similar emotions C．we have to cultivate our behavior first D．it’s wrong to act upon your thoughts 66．The passage is intended to show us that ________. A．we should accept life and mankind as it is B．everyone is determined by what he does C．understanding life promotes right action D．it is better to have a parent who accepts both your “good and bad” 【答案】63．C 64．D 65．C 66．B 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要论述了人的行为决定自己是一个怎样的人，而不是周围的环境，要改变思维，一个人必须首先改变行为。 63．细节理解题。根据第一段“But, you say, had an abusive father/mother, I was poor growing up, just wasn’t born smart, I have a disease... All of these things do not make you who you are. They only broaden your knowledge or experience. They are things that happen to you, circumstances. You are not the sum of your circumstances, but of your “action” to them.(但是，你说，我有一个虐待我的父亲/母亲，我很穷，只是不是天生聪明，我有疾病……所有这些都不能决定你是谁。它们只会拓宽你的知识和经验。它们是发生在你身上的事情，环境。你不是环境的总和，而是你对环境的“行动”的总和)”可知，作者认为，一个人曾经的虐待父母与他是什么样的人没有什么关系。故选C。 64．句意猜测题。根据划线词上文“This is why rich kids become drug addicts or wife beaters; kids from ghetto (贫民窟) become doctors or loving fathers, and everything in between.”可知，上文的例子指出有钱人家的孩子会染上毒瘾或打老婆，来自贫民窟的孩子成为医生或慈爱的父亲，由此可见环境对一个人的未来成功作用不大。故划线句意思是“环境对一个人未来的成功贡献不大”。故选D。 65．细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“When we feel slighted (被看轻), it sounds in our heads like: “I want to slap them, curse them, get even, and cause them the same pain they caused me. Acting upon these thoughts perpetuates (使继续) cycles of abuse, addiction, and pain. It’s when you choose not to act upon these thoughts, and instead, forgive and heal, that your thoughts and perceptions will start to change also. You change because right actions produce right results. You are choosing to heal properly by forgiving, and accepting life and mankind as it is, and in turn yourself as you are, which is the only way to have peace, joy, and true happiness.(当我们感到被轻视时，我们的脑海里就会响起这样的声音：“我想扇他们一巴掌，诅咒他们，报复他们，让他们尝尝他们给我带来的痛苦。”按照这些想法行事会使虐待、成瘾和痛苦的循环永久化。当你选择不按照这些想法行事，而是原谅和治愈，你的想法和观念也会开始改变。你改变是因为正确的行动产生正确的结果。你正在选择通过宽恕，接受生命和人类的本来面目，以及你自己的本来面目来治愈自己，这是获得和平、快乐和真正幸福的唯一途径)”可知，当我们感到被轻视时，我们的想法和行为的例子表明，我们必须首先培养我们的行为。故选C。 66．推理判断题。根据第一段“We are the sum of our actions. I believe that the actions you take determine who you are.(我们是我们行动的总和。我相信你的行为决定了你是谁)”结合文章主要论述了人的行为决定自己是一个怎样的人，而不是周围的环境，要改变思维，一个人必须首先改变行为。可知，文章目的是告诉我们，每个人都是由他的行为决定的。故选B。 Section C Directions: Read the passage carefully.

Summary Writing （10分） 71．Directions: Read the following passage. Summarize the main idea and the main point(s) of the passage in NO MORE THAN 60 WORDS. Use your own words as far as possible. Herbal medicine (草药), which has been used for medicinal purposes, is the use of plants to treat diseases. Many herbalists use the entire plant, from the flowers, stems, leaves, and roots, in the form of everything from teas to pills. These plants contain natural, chemical things that can treat the body for a variety of diseases— such as allergies, asthma, rheumatoid arthritis, migraine, chronic fatigue, and cancer, among others. Nowadays an increasing number of people prefer to adopt these plants to treat their diseases because compared with chemical medicine, herbal medicine has its own advantages. Herbal medicine and remedies (治疗) are more effective than chemical medicine for certain diseases. The chemical medicine given by a chemist could have certain negative side effects. However, many of the herbal medicine and remedies do not have negative side effects. If any, they are softer than chemical medicine. Obesity is the cause of many of the health problems. Herbal medicine can help weight-loss more effectively and improve overall health. However, the cure using herbal medicine and supplements (营养品) would take some time, and therefore people are supposed to possess enough patience. Worse still, herbal medicine contains a variety of ingredients (成分) and people have to be sure that their body agrees with the ingredients and that it is not allergic (过敏的). When used correctly and directed by doctors, herbs can help treat a variety of diseases. But keep in mind that the herbal medicine industry is not regulated, so herbal products are often misleading and may contain additives (添加剂) and that are not listed on the label (标签). Some herbs may cause allergic reactions or interact with other drugs, and some are poisonous if used improperly or at high doses (剂量). Taking herbs on your own increases your risk. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】参考范文： Herbal medicine is a way of treating some diseases which uses entire plants containing powerful things in various forms (要点1).
