However, in this digital age, this traditional tool may become a thing of the past. Cambridge University is considering ending hundreds of years of written exams and allowing students to use laptops to take exams instead. The move comes after Cambridge teachers complained that students’ handwriting is becoming too hard to recognize. As a result, more and more students are being forced to return to university during the summer holidays to read their answers aloud. The worsening of handwriting could largely be the result of students’ depending on laptops too much. Some disagreed on the move, fearing the handwritten words would become a lost art. Tracey Trussell, a handwriting expert urged (力劝) Cambridge to make sure that students continue to write by hand, particularly in lectures. She explained that writing by hand could help students improve their memory and understand lessons better. However, senior officials at the university believed it was unfair to expect students to use pens and paper during exams when most of their coursework was done on computers. Harvard professor Eric Mazur believes that the rise of mobile Internet access means that we live in an age in which we don’t need to memorize anything. He encourages students to bring their laptops and mobile phones into exams. With them, students can look up whatever they want whenever they want and be tested on their creative and analytical (分析的) skills, rather than the ability to remember information. 61．What is Cambridge University thinking about? A．It’s thinking about stopping students from using laptops in exams. B．It’s thinking about allowing students to use digital tools to take exams. C．It’s thinking about helping students improve their handwriting. D．It’s thinking about helping students understand lessons better. 62．What does the underlined word “recognize” mean in Paragraph 3? A．思考 B．模仿 C．识别 D．记忆 63．Why does Tracey think Cambridge should make students continue to write by hand? A．She thinks it’s too difficult for students to use digital tools. B．Digital tools are too expensive for students. C．Students prefer to write by hand. D．She thinks writing by hand could help students improve their memory and understand lessons better. 64．Which of the following might Eric agree with? A．It was unfair to expect students to use computers in coursework. B．We don’t need to memorize anything in a digital age. C．We mustn’t allow students to bring their laptops into exams. D．Mobile Internet access can test students’ ability to remember information. 65．What is the best title for the passage? A．The Digital Age B．Bad Handwriting C．The Move to End Exams D．Technology Could End Handwriting 【答案】61．B 62．C 63．D 64．B 65．D 【导语】本文主要介绍了剑桥大学考虑采用数字工具考试取代手写考试，以及社会上对此产生的两种不同的观点。 61．细节理解题。根据“Cambridge University is considering ending hundreds of years of written exams and allowing students to use laptops to take exams instead.”可知，剑桥大学正考虑允许学生使用笔记本电脑参加考试。故选B。 62．词句猜测题。根据“The move comes after Cambridge teachers complained that students’ handwriting is becoming too hard to recognize. As a result, more and more students are being forced to return to university during the summer holidays to read their answers aloud. ”可知，此处表达剑桥的老师们抱怨学生写的字太难辨认，很多学生在假期被叫回去读他们写的答案。因此，“recognize”应译为“认识，识别”。故选C。 63．推理判断题。根据“She explained that writing by hand could help students improve their memory and understand lessons better.”可知，Tracey认为手写可以帮助学生提高记忆力，更好地理解课程。故选D。 64．细节理解题。根据“Harvard professor Eric Mazur believes that the rise of mobile Internet access means that we live in an age in which we don’t need to memorize anything.”可知，Eric认为在数字时代，我们不需要记忆任何东西。故选B。 65．最佳标题题。通读全文，本文主要介绍了剑桥大学考虑采用数字工具考试取代手写考试，以及社会上对此产生的两种不同的观点。因此选项D“技术可能终结手写”为最佳标题。故选D。 第II卷（非选择题 共40分） 五、选词填空（共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分） 阅读下面短文，然后用下面方框中选出适当的短语填空，使短文完整、通顺(每词限用一次)。。 a good choice   in danger   more and more cars     result in   taking action Green Transport Transport is now the major cause of pollution in cities. It is destroying the environment as there are 66 on the road. The increasing cars 67 serious air and noise pollution. In fact, road transport is a main reason for the greenhouse effect. This is a big problem since the air quality in many countries is already 68 . Taking public transportation is better. A bus or a train carries more people, so each person creates less pollution. Even better than buses and trains are bicycles, but they may not be 69 for long-distance travel or when you are in a hurry. To recycle a bicycle is also difficult. Walking is by far the best way of transport. Some city planners are 70 to build “walkable communities”. People who live in this area can walk to offices, schools or even hospitals without ever needing a car. 【答案】66．more and more cars 67．result in 68．in danger 69．a good choice 70．taking action 【导语】本文讲述交通是目前城市环境污染的主要原因。污染环境的原因是因为马路上私家车越来越多。骑自行车比较环保，但是路途远就不是很合适了。现在提倡走路环保。住在步行社区的人们都选择走路的方式。 66．句意：道路上的汽车越来越多，这正在破坏环境。根据“Transport is now the major cause of pollution in cities. It is destroying the environment as there are...on the road.”可知，交通现在是城市污染的主要原因，所以路上有越来越多的车，故填more and more cars。 67．句意：不断增加的汽车导致了严重的空气和噪音污染。根据“The increasing cars...serious air and noise pollution.”可知，汽车的增加导致了问题，result in“导致”符合语境，故填result in。 68．句意：这是一个大问题，因为许多国家的空气质量已经处于危险之中。根据“This is a big problem since the air quality in many countries is already...”可知，许多国家的空气质量处于危险中，in danger“处于危险”符合语境，故填in danger。 69．句意：比公共汽车和火车更好的是自行车，但当你长途旅行或有急事时，它可能不是一个好的选择。根据“Even better than buses and trains are bicycles, but they may not be...for long-distance travel”可知，对于长途旅行来说，自行车不是一个好的选择，故填a good choice。 70．句意：一些城市规划者正在采取行动建造“适于步行的社区”。根据“Some city planners are...to build ‘walkable communities’.”可知，城市规划者在采取行动，故填taking action。 六、短文填空（共10小题，每小题1分，满分10分） 阅读下面短文，根据上下文或括号内单词等提示，在空白处填入适当的单词或括号内单词的适当形式。 Chinese fancy knots (中国结), also called Chinese knots,are very important in Chinese culture. They began as a form of traditional art in the Tang and Song Dynasties (朝代) in China, and 71 (become) popular in the Ming Dynasty. Now they are 72 (regard) as one of the symbols of Chinese culture. As for the name itself, it is surely meaningful. The Chinese word for “knot”, jie, means “connection”. And the 73 of the Chinese word jie is very close to that of jie, “good luck”. 74 a result, Chinese knots are used as a way to express people’s strong wishes for marvellous things like happiness, love and good luck. The knots are used 75 (wide) in everyday life. They come in different sizes. Small ones are 76 to clothes and gifts in order to draw people’s attention, while large ones are used to make a living room more beautiful. Whether large 77 small, they are named after their shapes and usages. For example, Double Coin Knots are called Shuangqian Jie 78 they are in the shape of two ancient Chinese coins, meaning “good things come in pairs”. 79 , Chinese knots are famous for their bright colors. Different colors have different traditional cultural 80 (mean). Red means good luck and happiness, green means health,and yellow means wealth. All in all, the famous Chinese fancy knots fully show the Chinese culture. 【答案】 71．became 72．regarded 73．pronunciation 74．As 75．widely 76．connected 77．or 78．because 79．Besides 80．meanings 【导语】本文主要介绍一种中国传统艺术形式——中国结。 71．句意：它们在中国唐宋时期开始作为一种传统艺术形式出现，并在明代流行起来。根据“They began a..., and ... popular in the Ming Dynasty.”可知，and连接两个并列谓语，由“began”可知，句子用一般过去时。故填became。 72．句意：现在它们被视为中国文化的象征之一。be regarded as“被视作”，固定短语。故填regarded。 73．句意：汉语单词“jie”的发音与“好运”的发音非常接近。根据“the Chinese word jie is very close to that of jie”可知，此处是说的发音，由“the ... of the Chinese word ”可知，此处需填名词pronunciation“发音”。故填pronunciation。 74．句意：因此，中国结被用来表达人们对幸福、爱情和好运等美好事物的强烈愿望。as a result“因此”，固定短语，句首首字母大写。故填As。 75．句意：中国结在日常生活中被广泛使用。此处修饰动词used用副词。故填widely。 76．句意：小的被连接到衣服和礼物上以吸引人们的注意，而大的被用来使客厅更漂亮。根据“are ... to clothes and gifts”可知，此处指连接到衣服和礼物上，connect“连接”，主语Small ones和动词connect之间是被动关系，因此用被动语态。故填connected。 77．句意：无论大小，它们都以其形状和用途命名。根据“Whether large ... small”可知，此处是Whether ... or...表示“无论……还是……”。故填or。 78．句意：例如，双币结被称为双钱结，因为它们是两枚中国古代硬币的形状，意思是“好事成双”。根据“Double Coin Knots are called Shuangqian Jie ... they are in the shape of two ancient Chinese coins, meaning ‘good things come in pairs’.”可知，前后是因果关系，前者是果，后者是因，用because连接，引导原因状语从句。故填because。 79．句意：此外，中国结以鲜艳的颜色而闻名。根据“Chinese knots are famous for their bright colors.”可知，此处表示“另外”，besides“另外”，句首首字母大写。故填Besides。 80．句意：不同的颜色具有不同的传统文化意义。根据“Different colors have different traditional cultural”可知，此处表示“意义”，用名词复数meanings“意义”。故填meanings。 七、书面表达（共1大题，满分20分） 你校英语报正举办以“My Country, My Pride (骄傲)”为主题的征文活动。请你写一篇短文投稿。内容包括： 1. 简要阐述在环境、文化、旅游以及科技等4个方面中国近几年的变化； 2. 谈谈你的感想。 注意： 1. 词数100左右； 2. 可以适当增加细节，以使行文连贯； 3. 文中不得出现真实的姓名、校名等关键信息。 My Country, My Pride ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】例文： My Country, My Pride Obviously, great changes have taken place in China these years.

They belonged to the old man when he was a world-famous tennis player a long time ago. Lee was happy when he was practicing his shots against a wall at his house. He hoped that he would also become a famous player one day. However, Lee’s family was very poor. There was not enough money to pay for tennis lessons, the white clothes or a new racquet. Lee tried playing with other players who played on the courts(球场) in his town, but they just made fun of his old racquet and clothes. So, Lee spent his time watching some players play and then practicing against the wall at his home. In this way he hoped he would learn as much about the game of tennis as he could. The manager of the tennis courts, Mr. Song, heard Lee’s story. He offered Lee a job sweeping the tennis courts every day. Instead of paying him, Mr. Song gave Lee tennis lessons. Through the lessons, Mr. Song realized that Lee knew much about tennis, so he asked him to teach the younger children with pay. Lee became a very good tennis player. And Mr. Song invited him to play in a competition. Lee played very well and won all his matches. From then on, he was trained as a professional player. Then came the day when Lee played in his first world championship(锦标赛). He finally made it into the final. The young man he would be playing against was the world champion(冠军). Lee was nervous. The young man played very well. He was too good for Lee to beat. So Lee came second in the competition. Lee didn’t mind. He had his first world championship. For now, he was happy that he was on the road to becoming a world-famous player. 56．What did Lee want to be when he was young? A．A famous tennis player. B．A football player. C．A world champion. D．A manager of a tennis court. 57．Why did Lee practice playing tennis against a wall at home? A．He couldn’t pay for the courts. B．He didn’t have a new racquet. C．Other players didn’t want to play with him. D．It was the best way to practice playing tennis. 58．From the passage we can know that ________. A．Lee taught the kids to play tennis for free B．tennis players need to wear the white clothes C．Mr. Song paid Lee to sweep the courts D．Lee felt upset to lose the game in his first world championship 59．What does the passage mainly want to tell us? A．Players need a good manager to help them. B．People who laughed at you may help you. C．Keep doing what you like though it’s difficult at first. D．It’s the most important to get a championship as a player. 60．What is the best title for the passage? A．An Old Racquet B．A World-Famous Player C．Be a Champion Player D．A Hard Way to Succeed C A pen has always been a necessary tool when we take exams. However, in this digital age, this traditional tool may become a thing of the past. Cambridge University is considering ending hundreds of years of written exams and allowing students to use laptops to take exams instead. The move comes after Cambridge teachers complained that students’ handwriting is becoming too hard to recognize. As a result, more and more students are being forced to return to university during the summer holidays to read their answers aloud. The worsening of handwriting could largely be the result of students’ depending on laptops too much. Some disagreed on the move, fearing the handwritten words would become a lost art. Tracey Trussell, a handwriting expert urged (力劝) Cambridge to make sure that students continue to write by hand, particularly in lectures. She explained that writing by hand could help students improve their memory and understand lessons better. However, senior officials at the university believed it was unfair to expect students to use pens and paper during exams when most of their coursework was done on computers.

They belonged to the old man when he was a world-famous tennis player a long time ago. Lee was happy when he was practicing his shots against a wall at his house. He hoped that he would also become a famous player one day. However, Lee’s family was very poor. There was not enough money to pay for tennis lessons, the white clothes or a new racquet. Lee tried playing with other players who played on the courts(球场) in his town, but they just made fun of his old racquet and clothes. So, Lee spent his time watching some players play and then practicing against the wall at his home. In this way he hoped he would learn as much about the game of tennis as he could. The manager of the tennis courts, Mr. Song, heard Lee’s story. He offered Lee a job sweeping the tennis courts every day. Instead of paying him, Mr. Song gave Lee tennis lessons. Through the lessons, Mr. Song realized that Lee knew much about tennis, so he asked him to teach the younger children with pay. Lee became a very good tennis player. And Mr. Song invited him to play in a competition. Lee played very well and won all his matches. From then on, he was trained as a professional player. Then came the day when Lee played in his first world championship(锦标赛). He finally made it into the final. The young man he would be playing against was the world champion(冠军). Lee was nervous. The young man played very well. He was too good for Lee to beat. So Lee came second in the competition. Lee didn’t mind. He had his first world championship. For now, he was happy that he was on the road to becoming a world-famous player. 56．What did Lee want to be when he was young? A．A famous tennis player. B．A football player. C．A world champion. D．A manager of a tennis court. 57．Why did Lee practice playing tennis against a wall at home? A．He couldn’t pay for the courts. B．He didn’t have a new racquet.

A．Lee taught the kids to play tennis for free B．tennis players need to wear the white clothes C．Mr. Song paid Lee to sweep the courts D．Lee felt upset to lose the game in his first world championship 59．What does the passage mainly want to tell us?

D．It’s the most important to get a championship as a player. 60．What is the best title for the passage? A．An Old Racquet B．A World-Famous Player C．Be a Champion Player D．A Hard Way to Succeed C A pen has always been a necessary tool when we take exams. However, in this digital age, this traditional tool may become a thing of the past. Cambridge University is considering ending hundreds of years of written exams and allowing students to use laptops to take exams instead. The move comes after Cambridge teachers complained that students’ handwriting is becoming too hard to recognize. As a result, more and more students are being forced to return to university during the summer holidays to read their answers aloud. The worsening of handwriting could largely be the result of students’ depending on laptops too much. Some disagreed on the move, fearing the handwritten words would become a lost art. Tracey Trussell, a handwriting expert urged (力劝) Cambridge to make sure that students continue to write by hand, particularly in lectures. She explained that writing by hand could help students improve their memory and understand lessons better. However, senior officials at the university believed it was unfair to expect students to use pens and paper during exams when most of their coursework was done on computers. Harvard professor Eric Mazur believes that the rise of mobile Internet access means that we live in an age in which we don’t need to memorize anything. He encourages students to bring their laptops and mobile phones into exams. With them, students can look up whatever they want whenever they want and be tested on their creative and analytical (分析的) skills, rather than the ability to remember information. 61．What is Cambridge University thinking about?
