I couldn't let those thoughts cloud my mind. I tried to prepare myself for one of the most important days of my life. My first class wasn't too bad. I had to listen to my English teacher discuss the importance of themes and plots, but otherwise,it was a pretty easy and relaxing class. My other classes that followed after were pretty much the same. During lunchtime, I was hoping I wouldn't feel singled out and would find a good table to sit at and 第 4 页（共 8 页） enjoy my lunch. I ate a pizza and had an orange soda to wash it down. I was grateful for the food not tasting horrible. I still didn't manage to find any new friends to sit with, but I was just happy I found a table to sit at. When my first day at school was almost over, I felt a tap on my shoulder in Chemistry class. It was a girl named Samantha asking if she could share my textbook with me. I told her yes and invited her to sit next to me. We made small conversations and connections with similar interests.When the class bell rang, we exchanged numbers. Once the last bell rang, I was eager to get home and tell my childhood friend Charlie how my day was at a brand new school. I knew Charlie was going to have a “I told you so” moment. I was just excited to speak to a familiar voice and pour out my feelings that I endured all day. 24. How did the author feel before her first day of high school? A. Quite eager and happy. B. Quite annoyed and upset. C. A little anxious but hopeful. D. Very excited but a little sad. 25. What can we learn about the author from paragraph 2? A. She liked English most. B. She felt good about her classes C. She failed to focus on her first class. D. She hated to listen to her English teacher. 26. What might make the author feel regretful during lunch time? A. The food tasted really bad. B. She had no friends to sit with. C. She failed to find a table to sit at. D. She only had a pizza and an orange soda. 27. Why did Samantha pat the author's shoulder？ A. To make friends with her. B. To chat with her to kill time. C. To exchange books with her. D. To ask the author to share the textbook with her. C Across much of Spain on Tuesday morning, a thin layer (层) of red dust (尘埃) coated everything outside. This included cars, buses, trees, and plants. As the sun rose, the dust in the air turned the skies in some cities a strange orange. The cause of the dust and unusual sky color wasn’t a forest fire, but the dust from the Sahara Desert. Every year, a large cloud of dust rises from the Sahara Desert. It’s called the Saharan Air Layer. Usually, it crosses the Atlantic Ocean as part of a natural cycle (圈) that helps develop farmland in Central and South America. But sometimes, depending on the weather, the layer of dust gets forced to the north. Large sandstorms in northern Africa lift sand and dust into the air, where it gets blown toward Spain. These kinds of storms aren’t unknown in Spain. In fact, it has a special name, calima. It is so large that it can be seen from space. A NASA scientist says it’s like a river of dust in the air. That river of dust has met with a river of wet air driven by strong winds. People in some cities, like Malaga and Navarra, reported that it was raining dust. In other places, the dust changed the color of the snow on the ground. The dust cloud continued to move north and west, hitting both France and the United Kingdom. The dust is expected to keep stalking, possibly as far north as Denmark. The dust cloud may make some places a little foggy and sunsets very colorful. Some weather experts warn that climate change could make dust storms from the Sahara Desert even 第 5 页（共 8 页） more serious in the future. 28. Normally, what does the Saharan Air Layer do? A. It’s farmland-friendly. B. It does good to the desert. C. It ends in the desert. D. It disappears in the ocean. 29. What can be learnt about the calima in Spain? A. It has different colors. B. It causes heavy rains. C. It is huge and famous. D. It is formed near rivers. 30. What does the underlined word “stalking” in paragraph 4 mean? A. Rising. B. Spreading. C. Getting weak. D. Becoming different. 31. In which section of a newspaper may this text appear? A. Culture. B. Health. C. Agriculture. D. Nature. D Lots of animals play. But the behavior is best known in mammals (哺乳动物) and birds. Now the scientists at London’s Queen Mary University report that bumblebees (大黄蜂) know the same thing. But before this, there were no reports of insects playing. Dr. Lars Chittka began to wonder if bumblebees played during an earlier test. In that test, Chittka guided bumblebees to move balls into a goal for food. He noticed that some bees were rolling (滚动) balls even when they weren’t given food. He wondered if they were playing. To test the idea, the scientists at his lab set up a new test. First, they numbered 45 young bumblebees between one and 23 days old. The numbers let them follow bumblebees’ behavior. Then, they set up a clear pathway from the bumblebees’ home to a feeding area. On either side of the open pathway, the researchers placed small colored wooden balls. On one side of the path, the balls couldn’t move. On the other side, the balls could roll around. For three hours a day, over 18 days, the scientists opened the pathway between the home and the feeding area. The bumblebees never had to leave the pathway to find food, but they left anyway. They weren’t interested in the side where the balls didn’t move, but they made lots of visits to the side with the rolling balls. Catching the balls with their legs, the bees would move their wings to pull on the balls, causing them to roll. The 45 numbered bumblebees did this 910 times during the test. Though some only did it once, others did it a lot. The younger ones liked to spend more time rolling balls while the older ones showed less interest in it. One bee was recorded rolling balls 44 times in a single day. One was seen rolling balls 117 times over the whole test. The test raises important questions about how the insects’ minds work and whether they have feelings. 32. What did Chittka want to know about bumblebees in the earlier test? A. Discover if they played. B. Train them to move balls. C. Make them learn to relax. D. Find out if they’d share food. 33. What did the scientists do to bumblebees before the new test? A. They named each of them. B. They let them interested in balls. C. They had all of them go hungry. D. They marked them one by one. 34. What can we say about the older bumblebees’ behavior in the new test? 第 6 页（共 8 页） A. They held their attention for longer. B. They understood simpler numbers. C. They were less active in rolling balls. D. They helped the young pull on balls. 35. What’s the best title for the text? A. Bumblebees Are First Insects Known to Play B. Two Tests Prove Bumblebees Expect to Play C. Bumblebees Are the World’s Smartest Insects D. Scientists Make Bumblebees Work for Them 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选项。 British English and American English are almost the same. 36 The first difference between British and American English is in vocabulary. Almost all of the words used in British English and American English are exactly the same. 37 For example, Americans would say “apartment”, but the British would say “flat” to talk about the place where they live. In addition to some common words, many idiomatic (惯用的) expressions are different. In England people might say “I’ll ring you up tonight”, but in the US, people might say “I’ll call you up tonight”. The second difference between British and American English is in pronunciation. The main difference in pronunciation concerns the vowels (元音). Some American dialects and some British dialects use vowels in different ways. 38 But most of the time, the British and Americans do understand each other’s pronunciation because most of the sounds of the two dialects are the same. 39 This is the difference in spelling. A few types of words are spelled differently in British and American English. The most common example is in a word like “center”. In British English, this word would be spelled C-E-N-T-R-E, while in American English the same word would be spelled C-E-N-T-E-R. Another example is “or” vs “our”. The word “color”is spelled C-O-L-O-U-R in Britain but C-O-L-O-R in the US. 40 The British may say “Have you got…?” while Americans prefer “Do you have…?” An American might say “my friend just arrived”, but a British would say “my friend has just arrived”. Sometimes function words are used differently: the British may say “at the weekend”, but Americans would say “on the weekend”. A. The third difference is very small. B. There are a few differences in grammar, too. C. But there are slight differences between them. D. Only a very small number of words are used differently. E. Both languages have a slightly different structure of telling the time. F. American and British English may also use a base verb in different manners. G. Sometimes, Americans and the British don’t understand each other’s pronunciation. 第三部分语言运用［共两节，满分 30 分］ 第一节（共 15 小题；每小题 1 分，满分 15 分） 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的 A、B、C、D 四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 第 7 页（共 8 页） On August 23rd, my son was out mountain biking with his teacher and friends.

Since I was young, I have been interested in this international language, in which I would be able to talk with people all over the world. Learning English takes time, so if we want to learn it well, much time should be devoted to practising it every day. Besides, keep it in mind that it is of great importance to go over what has been learnt regularly. Through hard work, not only do I get good grades in my study, but also I can communicate with others in English fluently. Therefore, I hold the firm belief that only when we work hard can we learn English well.
