第二部分:阅读理解(共20小题;每小题2.5分,满分50分)
阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中,选出最佳选项。
A
There are many good online universities available. If you are considering this option for getting your degree, don’t forget to check out this gem. Rather than give the standard sales pitch, I will list the top reasons that I chose Western Governor’s University for my master’s degree.
Lower tuition (学费)
The tuition is lower than comparable online schools. Each term is six months long, giving me more time to complete the requirements for the term. In addition, if I finish early and still have time left in my term, I can do a part-time job to earn enough money for the schooling. I find this option to be very cost-effective.
Flexible courses
If I have learned enough either through life experience, on the job training, or in class, I can take the exam and skip the course. For example, I learned a great deal about special education law from working in the field, attended conferences, and took classes for my second bachelor’s degree. I was able to take the test, and pass, thus finishing the class quickly and focusing on other areas where I needed more studying time.
Personal support
I have a mentor (导师) assigned to me. My mentor is my contact person for questions and support. I get calls on a regular basis. We talk about where I am in my studies, what my next steps are, and any question I may have. I also have the online communities where I can go on the discussion with my schoolmates when I have questions.
Respected degree
I checked with the State Office of Education to find out if this was a good way to go. I learned that a degree from Western Governor’s University was a respected degree that is considered comparable to a degree from a traditional brick and mortar (灰泥) university.
I am nearly finished with my degree from Western Governor’s University. I gain confidence in my abilities, and am very happy with my decision.
36. From this passage we lean that Western Governor’s University ________.
A. is a key American university B. attracts a great number of students
C. is a brick and mortar university D. is a good online university
37. How can the author get enough money for his schooling?
A. He depends on his family’s support. B. He does a part-time job to pay for it.
C. He studies hard to get scholarship. D. He has a good job and a good pay.
38. We can infer that the author ________.
A. had received a bachelor’s degree before B. never went to university before
C. wanted to study special education law D. only studied the courses he liked
39. How does the author get in touch with his mentor?
A. He calls his mentor at regular time. B. His mentor calls him at regular intervals.
C. He calls on his mentor every few days. D. He often talks with his mentor online.
40. The author writes the article ________.

B
I still remember the days when I was a youthful student in an engineering school. I lived a casual life, without caring about the future. I smoked, drank with friends and made girlfriends. Little did I realized that casualness would certainly lead to loss.
Two years had passed and I was staring down a report card that highlighted FAIL in more than half the subjects. I didn't care, at least not till my dad found out about it. You see, I studied in India and unlike the United States where the students are expected to finance their own education, my dad financed me.
Then came the day when my dad found out my habit of smoking. He lost his temper but he just told me,“ son, your allowance is cut in half from this moment on.” It hit me like a roundhouse kick from Bruce Lee. I was jolted (震摇) out of my bones! I couldn't comprehend how to pay off the debts that I had accumulated in college. I owed everybody money: the grocery store, the bars, the restaurants, my friends, ect. I was living a life filled with credit.
When I came back to college, I knew if I didn’t change the way I live my life I wouldn't be able to pay everybody off. So I decided to make some changes, drastic changes. I quitted smoking, cut off from my friends who led me down the wrong road, starting hanging out in libraries and reading my engineering books.
One year later, I went from a miserable failure to a magna cum laude(优等成绩). Life was never the same again. This incident made me know that anything is possible if you take action and do something about it, however small or large. Even today it still motivates me when I feel that I'm about to lose or give up. It reminds me that I can do it!

C
Lao Zi once said, “Care about what other people think and you will always be their prisoner.”
People-pleasing, or seeking self-worth through others’ approval, is unproductive and an exhausting way to go through life. Why do we allow what others think of us to have so much power over how we feel about ourselves? If it’s true that you can’t please all people all of the time, wouldn’t it make sense to stop trying?
Unfortunately, sense often isn’t driving our behavior. For social beings who desire love and belonging, wanting to be liked, and caring about the effect we have on others, is healthy and allows us to make connections. However, where we get into trouble is when our self- worth is dependent on whether we win someone’s approval or not.
This need to be liked can be traced back to when we were children and were completely dependent on others to take care of us: Small children are not just learning how to walk and communicate, they are also trying to learn how the world works. We learn about who we are and what is expected of us based on interactions with others so, to a four-year-old, if Mommy or Daddy doesn’t like him or her, there is the danger that they will abandon them. We need to understand that when we desperately want someone to approve of us, it’s being driven by that little kid part of us that is still afraid of being abandoned.
As you become more capable of providing yourself with the approval you seek, your need for external approval will start to disappear, leaving you stronger, more confident, and yes, happier in your life. Imagine how much time we lose each moment we restrain our authentic selves in an effort to be liked.
If we base our worth on the opinions of others, we cheat ourselves of the power to shape our experiences and embrace life not only for others but also for ourselves, because ultimately, there is no difference. So embrace the cliché (老话) and love yourself as you’ll not regret it.
46. What can we conclude from Lao Zi’s quotation?
A. We should see through other people’s attempt to make a prisoner of us.
B. We can never really please other people even if we try as hard as we can.
C. We can never be truly free if we care about others’ opinion of us.
D. We should care about other people’s view as much as they care about our own.
47. What will happen if we base our self-worth on other people’s approval?
A. Our desire to be loved will be fulled
B. Our Identity as social beings will be affected.
C. Our life will be unfruitful and exhausting.
D. Our sense of self will be sharpened and enhanced.
48. What may be the reason for our need to be liked or approved of?
A. Our desperate longing for interactions with others.
B. Our understanding of the workings of the world.
C. Our knowledge about the pain of being abandoned.
D. Our early childhood fear of being abandoned.
49 What can we do when we become better able to provide ourselves with the desired approval?
A. Enjoy a happier life. B. Exercise self-restraint.
C. Receive more external approval. D. Strengthen our power of imagination.
50. What does the author advise us to do in the last paragraph?
A. Embrace life for others. B. Love ourselves as we are.
C. See our experiences as our wealth. D. Base our worth on others’ opinions.
D
Psychology Today explains that body language includes the way that humans send unspoken signals to one another. Posture, hand gestures, and even the tiniest facial expressions are understood by people who might not even realize that they are seeing them.
A person’s facial expressions can warn others about danger. For example, say someone opens a refrigerator and takes a large mouthful of soured milk. A twisted (扭曲的) expression and wide eyes directly send the message, “Leave this alone!” thus sparing others the sorry experience of trying the milk for themselves.
Some human signals are naturally understood. Imagine you look out your window and observe a passerby hurrying along the sidewalk with his arms wrapped around himself. Your first reaction would undoubtedly be, “It’s cold and windy outside.”
In a one-on-one conversation, a person with their arms crossed sends an unspoken signal that they are protecting their personal space. That person might, however, simply be tired or cold.
Brain researchers explain that feelings happen before our thoughts. The time between them is very short, but that’s long enough for an observant human to sense the hunger, anger, impatience or happiness of another person directly.
Humans are experts at quickly understanding another person’s attitude, and they do it before a single sentence is spoken. People naturally make eye contact when meeting another human. Even though some adults have learned to generally control basic facial features, the eyes tell us much. When a person looks into the eyes of someone they admire, their pupils (瞳孔) may widen, the same as when they see an object that they want very much.
Body language creates an impression on anyone and everyone you meet. To make a positive impression, smile when you meet someone. Body language isn’t mind-reading nor does it give insight into what another person is thinking. When reading people carefully, body language helps you understand what another person wants or plans to do.
51. Which of the following is NOT body language?
A. Hand gestures. B. Posture. C. Tone. D. Facial expressions.
52. What do we know from Paragraphs 2 through 4?
A. Body language communicates people’s discomfort.
B. Body language expresses what people can’t say.
C. People often use the same body language to show their feelings.
D. People make mistakes when understanding others’ body language.
53. How can we leave others with a good impression according to the author?
A. By observing others carefully. B. By looking at others’ eyes naturally.
C. By expressing our thoughts directly. D. By making a friendly expression.
54. How does the passage mainly develop?
A. By making comparisons. B. By providing examples.
C. By presenting research findings. D. By following the order of importance.
55. What is the best title for the text?
A. Read people like books B. Thoughts or feelings
C. Use body language well D. The art of communication

第三部分:写作
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,并按照题目要求用英语回答问题。
Last August I took part in the Summer Camp of the General Final Contest of the 16th National Creative English Contest held in Beijing. It was one of the most meaningful thing I did in my Senior 2 summer vacation.
The summer camp lasted from August 20 to August 27. During the opening ceremony, we each wrote a postcard to motivate ourselves. On my card I wrote, “Brace yourself and show your best,” These words supported me throughout every obstacle I experienced.
August 24 witnessed the important debate contest that many of us feared. The night before, my teammates and I sat in a circle, focusing our minds on the debate topic, “Does competition among friends adversely influence their friendships?”
All of us were busy searching for examples of Olympic athletes or other real-life people to back up our arguments. Time seemed to disappear faster than usual while we were working on this project.
Finally, the big day arrived. Only one minute before we went on the stage, an inner voice entered my mind, saying, “Brace yourself and show your best.” Preparing the details in my head allowed me to feel ready for the challenge. With my teammates backing me up, I drew myself up to full height and expressed my point of view as best as I could.
The results of the contest convinced me that my motto paid off—I entered the top 50, and two of my teammates placed in the top 10 due to their excellent performance. And through the strength of our teamwork, my friends and I became closer than ever. The more competition among friends, the firmer our friendship will be.
From those eight days, it isn’t the prize I valued the most but the breakthrough and the pure friendship I gained. It would be better to change my motor into “Brace yourself and fight together.” I firmly hold the belief that this period of time will live in my memory forever and will shine even brighter when I look back.

A
There are many good online universities available. If you are considering this option for getting your degree, don’t forget to check out this gem. Rather than give the standard sales pitch, I will list the top reasons that I chose Western Governor’s University for my master’s degree.
Lower tuition (学费)
The tuition is lower than comparable online schools. Each term is six months long, giving me more time to complete the requirements for the term. In addition, if I finish early and still have time left in my term, I can do a part-time job to earn enough money for the schooling. I find this option to be very cost-effective.
Flexible courses
If I have learned enough either through life experience, on the job training, or in class, I can take the exam and skip the course. For example, I learned a great deal about special education law from working in the field, attended conferences, and took classes for my second bachelor’s degree. I was able to take the test, and pass, thus finishing the class quickly and focusing on other areas where I needed more studying time.
Personal support
I have a mentor (导师) assigned to me. My mentor is my contact person for questions and support. I get calls on a regular basis. We talk about where I am in my studies, what my next steps are, and any question I may have. I also have the online communities where I can go on the discussion with my schoolmates when I have questions.
Respected degree
I checked with the State Office of Education to find out if this was a good way to go. I learned that a degree from Western Governor’s University was a respected degree that is considered comparable to a degree from a traditional brick and mortar (灰泥) university.
I am nearly finished with my degree from Western Governor’s University. I gain confidence in my abilities, and am very happy with my decision.

I still remember the days when I was a youthful student in an engineering school. I lived a casual life, without caring about the future. I smoked, drank with friends and made girlfriends. Little did I realized that casualness would certainly lead to loss.
Two years had passed and I was staring down a report card that highlighted FAIL in more than half the subjects. I didn't care, at least not till my dad found out about it. You see, I studied in India and unlike the United States where the students are expected to finance their own education, my dad financed me.
Then came the day when my dad found out my habit of smoking. He lost his temper but he just told me,“ son, your allowance is cut in half from this moment on.” It hit me like a roundhouse kick from Bruce Lee. I was jolted (震摇) out of my bones! I couldn't comprehend how to pay off the debts that I had accumulated in college. I owed everybody money: the grocery store, the bars, the restaurants, my friends, ect. I was living a life filled with credit.
When I came back to college, I knew if I didn’t change the way I live my life I wouldn't be able to pay everybody off. So I decided to make some changes, drastic changes. I quitted smoking, cut off from my friends who led me down the wrong road, starting hanging out in libraries and reading my engineering books.
One year later, I went from a miserable failure to a magna cum laude(优等成绩). Life was never the same again. This incident made me know that anything is possible if you take action and do something about it, however small or large. Even today it still motivates me when I feel that I'm about to lose or give up. It reminds me that I can do it!

C
Lao Zi once said, “Care about what other people think and you will always be their prisoner.”
People-pleasing, or seeking self-worth through others’ approval, is unproductive and an exhausting way to go through life. Why do we allow what others think of us to have so much power over how we feel about ourselves? If it’s true that you can’t please all people all of the time, wouldn’t it make sense to stop trying?
Unfortunately, sense often isn’t driving our behavior. For social beings who desire love and belonging, wanting to be liked, and caring about the effect we have on others, is healthy and allows us to make connections. However, where we get into trouble is when our self- worth is dependent on whether we win someone’s approval or not.
This need to be liked can be traced back to when we were children and were completely dependent on others to take care of us: Small children are not just learning how to walk and communicate, they are also trying to learn how the world works. We learn about who we are and what is expected of us based on interactions with others so, to a four-year-old, if Mommy or Daddy doesn’t like him or her, there is the danger that they will abandon them. We need to understand that when we desperately want someone to approve of us, it’s being driven by that little kid part of us that is still afraid of being abandoned.
As you become more capable of providing yourself with the approval you seek, your need for external approval will start to disappear, leaving you stronger, more confident, and yes, happier in your life. Imagine how much time we lose each moment we restrain our authentic selves in an effort to be liked.
If we base our worth on the opinions of others, we cheat ourselves of the power to shape our experiences and embrace life not only for others but also for ourselves, because ultimately, there is no difference. So embrace the cliché (老话) and love yourself as you’ll not regret it.
46. What can we conclude from Lao Zi’s quotation?
A. We should see through other people’s attempt to make a prisoner of us.
B. We can never really please other people even if we try as hard as we can.
C. We can never be truly free if we care about others’ opinion of us.
D. We should care about other people’s view as much as they care about our own.
47. What will happen if we base our self-worth on other people’s approval?
A. Our desire to be loved will be fulled
B. Our Identity as social beings will be affected.
C. Our life will be unfruitful and exhausting.
D. Our sense of self will be sharpened and enhanced.
48. What may be the reason for our need to be liked or approved of?
A. Our desperate longing for interactions with others.
B. Our understanding of the workings of the world.
C. Our knowledge about the pain of being abandoned.
D. Our early childhood fear of being abandoned.
49. What can we do when we become better able to provide ourselves with the desired approval?
A. Enjoy a happier life. B. Exercise self-restraint.
C. Receive more external approval. D. Strengthen our power of imagination.
50. What does the author advise us to do in the last paragraph?
A. Embrace life for others. B. Love ourselves as we are.
C. See our experiences as our wealth. D. Base our worth on others’ opinions.

Psychology Today explains that body language includes the way that humans send unspoken signals to one another. Posture, hand gestures, and even the tiniest facial expressions are understood by people who might not even realize that they are seeing them.
A person’s facial expressions can warn others about danger. For example, say someone opens a refrigerator and takes a large mouthful of soured milk. A twisted (扭曲的) expression and wide eyes directly send the message, “Leave this alone!” thus sparing others the sorry experience of trying the milk for themselves.
Some human signals are naturally understood. Imagine you look out your window and observe a passerby hurrying along the sidewalk with his arms wrapped around himself. Your first reaction would undoubtedly be, “It’s cold and windy outside.”
In a one-on-one conversation, a person with their arms crossed sends an unspoken signal that they are protecting their personal space. That person might, however, simply be tired or cold.
Brain researchers explain that feelings happen before our thoughts. The time between them is very short, but that’s long enough for an observant human to sense the hunger, anger, impatience or happiness of another person directly.
Humans are experts at quickly understanding another person’s attitude, and they do it before a single sentence is spoken. People naturally make eye contact when meeting another human. Even though some adults have learned to generally control basic facial features, the eyes tell us much. When a person looks into the eyes of someone they admire, their pupils (瞳孔) may widen, the same as when they see an object that they want very much.
Body language creates an impression on anyone and everyone you meet. To make a positive impression, smile when you meet someone. Body language isn’t mind-reading nor does it give insight into what another person is thinking. When reading people carefully, body language helps you understand what another person wants or plans to do.
51. Which of the following is NOT body language?
A. Hand gestures. B. Posture. C. Tone. D. Facial expressions.
52. What do we know from Paragraphs 2 through 4?
A. Body language communicates people’s discomfort.
B. Body language expresses what people can’t say.
C. People often use the same body language to show their feelings.
D. People make mistakes when understanding others’ body language.
53. How can we leave others with a good impression according to the author?
A. By observing others carefully. B. By looking at others’ eyes naturally.
C. By expressing our thoughts directly. D. By making a friendly expression.
54. How does the passage mainly develop?
A. By making comparisons. B. By providing examples.
C. By presenting research findings. D. By following the order of importance.

【51题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“Psychology Today explains that body language includes the way that humans send unspoken signals to one another. Posture, hand gestures, and even the tiniest facial expressions are understood by people who might not even realize that they are seeing them.(《今日心理学》解释说,肢体语言包括人类向彼此传递无言信号的方式。姿势,手势,甚至是最微小的面部表情都能被人们理解,而人们可能甚至没有意识到自己在看它们)”可知,语调不是肢体语言。故选C。
【52题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“Imagine you look out your window and observe a passerby hurrying along the sidewalk with his arms wrapped around himself. Your first reaction would undoubtedly be, “It’s cold and windy outside.”(想象一下,你向窗外望去,看到一个行人抱着胳膊匆匆走过人行道。你的第一反应无疑是:“外面又冷又刮风。”)”和第四段“In a one-on-one conversation, a person with their arms crossed sends an unspoken signal that they are protecting their personal space. That person might, however, simply be tired or cold.(在一对一的谈话中,一个人双臂交叉发出了一个不言而喻的信号,那就是他们在保护自己的私人空间。然而,那个人可能只是累了或冷了)”可知,肢体语言传达了人们的不适。故选A。
【53题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段“To make a positive impression, smile when you meet someone.(为了给人留下积极的印象,当你见到别人的时候要微笑)”可知,通过做一个友好的表情我们才能给别人留下好印象。故选D。
【54题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段“For example, say someone opens a refrigerator and takes a large mouthful of soured milk.(例如,有人打开冰箱,喝了一大口酸牛奶)”和第三段“Imagine you look out your window and observe a passerby hurrying along the sidewalk with his arms wrapped around himself.(想象一下,你向窗外望去,看到一个行人抱着胳膊匆匆走过人行道)”可知,本文主要是通过举例来展开的。故选B。
【55题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文,尤其是最后一段“Body language isn’t mind-reading nor does it give insight into what another person is thinking. When reading people carefully, body language helps you understand what another person wants or plans to do.(肢体语言不是读心术,也不能洞察他人的想法。仔细读懂别人时,肢体语言可以帮助你理解别人想要做什么或计划做什么)”可知,本文主要讲的是肢体语言在人际交往中的作用和重要性,肢体语言可以帮忙读懂人,因此最好的题目是A选项“Read people like books(读人如读书)”。故选A。

阅读下面短文,并按照题目要求用英语回答问题。
Last August I took part in the Summer Camp of the General Final Contest of the 16th National Creative English Contest held in Beijing. It was one of the most meaningful thing I did in my Senior 2 summer vacation.
The summer camp lasted from August 20 to August 27. During the opening ceremony, we each wrote a postcard to motivate ourselves. On my card I wrote, “Brace yourself and show your best,” These words supported me throughout every obstacle I experienced.
August 24 witnessed the important debate contest that many of us feared. The night before, my teammates and I sat in a circle, focusing our minds on the debate topic, “Does competition among friends adversely influence their friendships?”
All of us were busy searching for examples of Olympic athletes or other real-life people to back up our arguments. Time seemed to disappear faster than usual while we were working on this project.
Finally, the big day arrived. Only one minute before we went on the stage, an inner voice entered my mind, saying, “Brace yourself and show your best.” Preparing the details in my head allowed me to feel ready for the challenge. With my teammates backing me up, I drew myself up to full height and expressed my point of view as best as I could.
The results of the contest convinced me that my motto paid off—I entered the top 50, and two of my teammates placed in the top 10 due to their excellent performance. And through the strength of our teamwork, my friends and I became closer than ever. The more competition among friends, the firmer our friendship will be.
From those eight days, it isn’t the prize I valued the most but the breakthrough and the pure friendship I gained. It would be better to change my motor into “Brace yourself and fight together.” I firmly hold the belief that this period of time will live in my memory forever and will shine even brighter when I look back.

词句猜测题。根据第三段“August 24 witnessed the important debate contest that many of us feared.(8月24日见证了我们许多人担心的重要辩论赛)”可知,“我”担心辩论比赛,在根据第五段中“Preparing the details in my head allowed me to feel ready for the challenge. With my teammates backing me up, I drew myself up to full height and expressed my point of view as best as I could.(在脑海中准备好细节让我觉得自己已经为挑战做好了准备。在队友的支持下,我挺直了身子,尽我所能地表达了我的观点)”可知,此处是对前文“Brace yourself and show your best.”这句话的具体表现,所以可推知“Brace yourself”应是不要担心振作起来之意。故回答:It means pull yourself together.

【答案】Let’s Promote Eeotourism
Good morning, dear friends. My name is Li Jin. I’d like to take this opportunity to talk about ecotourism. Commonly regarded as low impact travel to undisturbed places, ecotourism has become increasingly popular these year.
As for me, ecotourism is a true eco-friendly trip. With the aim of sustainable development, ecotourism calls on tourists to enjoy the scenery without damaging the natural environment. Therefore, it does little harm to the environment. By being exposed to natural areas, tourists can have a pleasant experience to get close to nature. Meanwhile, ecotourism benefits the economic development of local communities.
Ecotourism means responsible and sustainable travel. We have only one planet. To protect our planet, I do hope we can live in harmony with nature and make sure that ecotourism can provide positive experiences for both visitors and hosts.
Thanks for listening.
