School life is often happy and exciting. How can we keep those good memories (回忆)? Most high schools in the United States have a yearbook. The yearbook comes out once a year. It is a “book of memories” for students.
Inside a yearbook there is each student’s photo. The fourth-year students are finishing school soon, and their photos appear first. Next are the third-year students. Next come the second-year students. The last photos are the first-year students. The yearbook is not only about students, but the teachers’ photos are also in it.
The yearbook also has photos and descriptions (描述) of sports teams, school subjects and extracurricular activities. These are activities students do after school such as those in the chess club and Chinese club. There is even the yearbook club. Students in this club write and take photos all year for the yearbook. At the end of the year, the book comes out.
In the yearbook, some students get special titles (头衔). For example, the students choose the “class clown”—a funny student, the “most likely to succeed”—a student everyone thinks will be successful, and the “best dressed”—a student with a good fashion sense (时尚感).
Students write in each other’s yearbooks This is very important to the fourth-year students because they are saying goodbye to each other. Students write something like “We had a lot of fun.” and “I’ll never forget you.” They also write about all the fun they shared in school together.
32. What does the underlined word “These” in Paragraph 3 refer to?
A. Sports teams. B. Teaching activities.
C. School subjects. D. Extracurricular activities.
33. Jane is good at making others laugh. What title may she get?
A. The “class clown”. B. The “best dressed”.
C. The “young scientist”. D. The “most likely to succeed”.

People read books less often these days. With the invention of the TV, computer games, the Internet and mobile phones, it seems that reading books is no longer a popular activity. However, I believe that books are an important part of our lives.
Books offer a great wealth of learning and are at a cheaper price than taking a course (课程). Books can make people cleverer, because heavy readers have greater knowledge of how things work and who or what people are.
Everything requires (要求) reading. Imagine trying to do something as simple as reading the notes on a medicine bottle without good reading skills. Someone may not understand them and become very sick. Even something as simple as walking or driving through the city could become very dangerous without enough reading. Sometimes you must be able to understand what is written and explain the meaning.
Some people don’t like reading books. They say that reading is a waste of time and we can do better things with our time. Even if we don’t read books, we still read every day. And reading books can strengthen our abilities (能力). Reading is one of the greatest things we can do in our free time.
With a book, you can travel anywhere you want, do anything you want, and talk to anyone you want. Reading is very important in our lives, no matter how old you are. So I think people should read books.
36. What activity is less popular these days than before?
A. Watching TV. B. Shopping online.
C. Reading books. D. Playing computer games.
37. What can we learn from the second paragraph?
A. Reading can make us relax. B. Reading can make us smarter.
C. Reading can make things simple. D. Reading can make our life interesting.
38. Why do some people dislike reading books?
A. Because they think that books are too expensive.
B. Because they think that reading books is too boring.
C. Because they think that reading books just wastes their time.
D. Because they think that they have already got enough reading skills.
39. What does the underlined word “strengthen” mean in Paragraph 4?
A. Improve. B. Follow. C. Test. D. Show.
40. What is the best title for the text?
A. What We Love Doing in Our Free Time B. How We Improve Reading Skills
C. People Should Enjoy Themselves D. Why People Should Read Books
【答案】36. C 37. B 38. C 39. A 40. D

第二节 阅读表达(共5小题,每小题2分,计10分)
阅读下面短文,简略回答问题。
Now in hospital, we can not only see doctors, nurses and patients (病人), but also hospital helpers. Hospital helpers are new to many people. They can help people do a lot of things. For example, they can get appointments (预约) with a doctor and see the doctor with patients.
In these years there are more and more hospital helpers in big cities like Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou. The number of old people is growing fast in these cities. Many of them don’t know how to get appointments with doctors online. And they often get lost in big hospitals when they go there. Also, their children may live far from them and can’t go to the hospital with them. So these old people have the need for hospital helpers. In fact, many young people also use helper service. And they’re usually more open and trusting.
With the help of experienced hospital helpers, patients can spend less time finishing medical examinations (健康检查). And thanks to hospital helpers, patients feel warm and relaxed.
However, experts say hospital helpers still need to improve their service, so people can trust them much more. Hospital helpers should be friendlier and more careful. They also need to have necessary medical knowledge (知识).
41. What can hospital helpers do for patients according to the passage? (give two examples)
_____________________________________________________________________

42. Three. 43. (They feel) warm and relaxed.
44. (They need to) improve their service./They should be friendlier and more careful. They also need to have necessary medical knowledge.
45. Yes, I do. Because I can help others and make them feel warm and less worried in hospital./No, I don’t. Because I don’t have enough medical knowledge and be nervous when facing patients.
【解析】
【导语】本文主要介绍了医院助手(hospital helpers)的角色、服务对象、作用以及专家对其服务的改进建议。
【41题详解】
根据文章第1段“They can help people do a lot of things. For example, they can get appointments with a doctor and see the doctor with patients.”可知,医院助手能为病人提供预约和陪同就诊服务。故填They can get appointments with a doctor and see the doctor with patients.
【42题详解】
根据文章第2段提到的三个原因:“Many of them don’t know how to get appointments with doctors online.”(许多老人不会在线预约医生。);“They often get lost in big hospitals.”(他们常在大医院迷路。);“Their children may live far from them and can’t go to the hospital with them.”(子女可能住得远,无法陪同就医。)可推知结论:作者列举了三个原因。故填Three.
【43题详解】
根据文章第3段“And thanks to hospital helpers, patients feel warm and relaxed.”可知,病人对医院助手的感受是温暖和放松的。故填(They feel) warm and relaxed.
【44题详解】
根据文章第4段“Hospital helpers should be friendlier and more careful. They also need to have necessary medical knowledge.”可知,专家建议提升服务态度和专业性。故填(They need to) improve their service./They should be friendlier and more careful. They also need to have necessary medical knowledge.
【45题详解】
若回答“Yes”,理由可以是:可以帮助其他人,让病人感觉温暖或减轻焦虑;若回答“No”,理由可以是:缺乏相关经验或面对病人容易紧张。故填Yes, I do. Because I can help others and make them feel warm and less worried in hospital./No, I don’t. Because I don’t have enough medical knowledge and be nervous when facing patients. (开放性试题。本题答案不唯一,合理即可)

School life is often happy and exciting. How can we keep those good memories (回忆)? Most high schools in the United States have a yearbook. The yearbook comes out once a year. It is a “book of memories” for students.
Inside a yearbook there is each student’s photo. The fourth-year students are finishing school soon and their photos appear first. Next are the third-year students. Next come the second-year students. The last photos are the first-year students. The yearbook is not only about students, but the teachers’ photos are also in it.
The yearbook also has photos and descriptions (描述) of sports teams, school subjects and extracurricular activities. These are activities students do after school such as those in the chess club and Chinese club. There is even the yearbook club. Students in this club write and take photos all year for the yearbook. At the end of the year, the book comes out.
In the yearbook, some students get special titles (头衔). For example, the students choose the “class clown”—a funny student, the “most likely to succeed”—a student everyone thinks will be successful, and the “best dressed”—a student with a good fashion sense (时尚感).
Students write in each other’s yearbooks. This is very important to the fourth-year students because they are saying goodbye to each other. Students write something like “We had a lot of fun.” and “I’ll never forget you.” They also write about all the fun they shared in school together.
32. What does the underlined word “These” in Paragraph 3 refer to?
A. Sports teams. B. Teaching activities.
C. School subjects. D. Extracurricular activities.
33. Jane is good at making others laugh. What title may she get?
A. The “class clown”. B. The “best dressed”.
C. The “young scientist”. D. The “most likely to succeed”.
34. Which of the following may students write in a yearbook?
A. Nice to meet you! B. Please call back later.
C. I’ll write to you often. D. Welcome to our school!
35. What’s the purpose of the text?
A. To describe what a yearbook is. B. To tell us the history of a yearbook.
C. To teach us how to make a yearbook. D. To show how important a yearbook is.
D
People read books less often these days. With the invention of the TV, computer games, the Internet and mobile phones, it seems that reading books is no longer a popular activity. However, I believe that books are an important part of our lives.
Books offer a great wealth of learning and are at a cheaper price than taking a course (课程). Books can make people cleverer, because heavy readers have greater knowledge of how things work and who or what people are.
Everything requires (要求) reading. Imagine trying to do something as simple as reading the notes on a medicine bottle without good reading skills. Someone may not understand them and become very sick. Even something as simple as walking or driving through the city could become very dangerous without enough reading. Sometimes you must be able to understand what is written and explain the meaning.
Some people don’t like reading books. They say that reading is a waste of time and we can do better things with our time. Even if we don’t read books, we still read every day. And reading books can strengthen our abilities (能力). Reading is one of the greatest things we can do in our free time.
With a book, you can travel anywhere you want, do anything you want, and talk to anyone you want. Reading is very important in our lives, no matter how old you are. So I think people should read books.
36. What activity is less popular these days than before?
A. Watching TV. B. Shopping online.
C. Reading books. D. Playing computer games.
37. What can we learn from the second paragraph?
A. Reading can make us relax. B. Reading can make us smarter.
C. Reading can make things simple. D. Reading can make our life interesting.
38. Why do some people dislike reading books?
A. Because they think that books are too expensive.
B. Because they think that reading books is too boring.
C. Because they think that reading books just wastes their time.
D. Because they think that they have already got enough reading skills.
39. What does the underlined word “strengthen” mean in Paragraph 4?
A. Improve. B. Follow. C. Test. D. Show.
40. What is the best title for the text?
A. What We Love Doing in Our Free Time B. How We Improve Reading Skills
C. People Should Enjoy Themselves D. Why People Should Read Books
第二节 阅读表达(共5小题,每小题2分,计10分)
阅读下面短文,简略回答问题。
Now in hospital, we can not only see doctors, nurses and patients (病人), but also hospital helpers. Hospital helpers are new to many people. They can help people do a lot of things. For example, they can get appointments (预约) with a doctor and see the doctor with patients.
In these years, there are more and more hospital helpers in big cities like Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou. The number of old people is growing fast in these cities. Many of them don’t know how to get appointments with doctors online. And they often get lost in big hospitals when they go there. Also, their children may live far from them and can’t go to the hospital with them. So these old people have the need for hospital helpers. In fact, many young people also use helper service. And they’re usually more open and trusting.
With the help of experienced hospital helpers, patients can spend less time finishing medical examinations (健康检查). And thanks to hospital helpers, patients feel warm and relaxed.
However, experts say hospital helpers still need to improve their service, so people can trust them much more. Hospital helpers should be friendlier and more careful. They also need to have necessary medical knowledge (知识).
41. What can hospital helpers do for patients according to the passage? (give two examples)
_____________________________________________________________________
42. How many reasons does the writer give about why old people need hospital helpers?
_____________________________________________________________________
43. How do patients feel about hospital helpers?
_____________________________________________________________________
44. What do the experts suggest hospital helpers to do so that people can trust them much more?
_____________________________________________________________________
45. Do you want to volunteer as a hospital helper? Why or why not?
