I’m a seventeen-year-old boy preparing for my A Level exams at the end of the year. In the society where my peers (同龄人) and I live, we tend to accept the rat race values. As students, we want to get good grades so that we can get good jobs. I enjoy studying and have consistently received A’s in my classes. There was a year when I finished first in my class in the final exams. It was a great accomplishment.
Another one I am pleased with is that I managed to improve the relationship between Mum and Dad. Dad was a successful businessman who was rarely at home. Mum was a housewife who always felt bored and constantly nagged (唠叨) him to let her go to work. Their constant arguing bothered me, so I advised Dad that Mum would be better off with a part-time job. He agreed, and their relationship has improved since then.
My most proud achievement, however, is my successful work in the local old folks’ home. My grandparents had raised me since I was a child. I wept (哭泣) bitterly when they died. Unlike many of my classmates, I do not take part in my school's community service to earn points. I enjoy my voluntary work and believe I’m contributing to a worthwhile cause. This is where I can help. I talk to the elderly, assist them with their daily life, and listen to their problems, glory days and the hardships they experienced.
Last year, I hosted a successful New Year party for the elderly and they enjoyed a great time. Many expressed a desire to attend another party the following year. When I reflect on my accomplishments, I’m especially proud of my service at the old folks’ home, so I hope to study social work at university and work as a social worker in the future. I wish to be more skilled in attending to the less fortunate as well as find great satisfaction in it, after all.

My grandmother grew up in a world different from me. She experienced many things in her long life.
Though she never told stories, her stories were in the way she ate — she savored (品味) her food, cherished (珍惜) it. Often she would be the first to sit at the dinner table, and the last to leave. Food had been really scarce (缺乏) when she grew up.
Her stories were in the way she handed me lucky money. From a young age, my grandmother was brought up to understand the importance of hard work and the necessary of saving. Every Chinese New Year, I would be handed, or sent, a small red envelope that contained money, but never more than twenty dollars. When I was young , I didn’t understand why my grandmother gave me such a small amount of money. As I grew older, I realized that she wasn’t teaching me about money, but about tradition and hard work and family. The money was insignificant. I would probably spend it on any toy that I would lose soon after; it was the meaning behind her gift that mattered. It was her saying, “ I love you; I am your family and I want you to work hard as your family has before you.”
My grandmother’s stories were lessons. But they were never told in words. From the time that I was very young, up until she could barely remember my name, I remember her calling me “good girl”. Those two little words, in the course of my growing up, were a constant reminder that I was still so young, with still so far to go.
Now my grandmother is gone, but I see her every day. I see her in the women around me and in the mirror. She lives with me, inside me, and in the legacies(遗产)that I will create. And I know she would be proud.
28. The Author’s grandmother spent so much time eating at the table because ________.
A. she had no teeth B. she had nothing to do
C. she was preparing to clear the table D. she really wanted to enjoy the food
29. What did the author learn from the way her grandmother gave her lucky money?
A. Her grandmother didn’t have much money.
B. Her grandmother preferred boys to girls.
C. It was a shame to accept others’ money.
D. It was important for her to work hard.
30. What did the author realize hearing her grandmother call her “good girl” ?
A. She was really a good girl.
B. She needed to continually improve herself.
C. She should be proud of her manners and behaviors.
D. She was always a good girl in her grandmother’s eyes.
31. What can we know about the author’s grandmother after reading the passage?
A. She loved telling stories.
B. She had never worked in her life.
C. She set a great example for the author.
D. She was a mean woman with old-fashioned values.
D
Any foreigner who has tried to learn Chinese can tell how hard it is to master the tones required to speak and understand. And anyone who has tried to learn to play the violin or other instruments can report similar challenges.
Now researchers have found that people with musical training have an easier time learning Chinese. Writing in the online edition of Nature Neuroscience, researchers from Northwestern University say that both skills draw on the same parts of the brain that help people discover changes in pitch(音高).
One of the study's authors, Nina Kraus, said the findings suggested that studying music ''actually tunes our sensory system''. This means that schools that want children to do well in languages should hesitate before cutting music programs, Dr. Kraus said. She said music training might also help children with language problems.
Mandarin(普通话)speakers have been shown to have a more complex encoding(编码) of pitch patterns in their brains than English speakers do. This is because in Mandarin and other Asian languages, pitch plays a central role. A single-syllable word can have several meanings depending on how it is intoned.
For this study, the researchers looked at 20 non-Chinese speaking volunteers, half with no musical background and half who have studied an instrument for at least six years.
As they were shown a movie, the volunteers also heard an audio tape of the Mandarin word ''mi'' in three of its meanings: squint, bewilder and rice. The researchers recorded activities in their brain stems to see how well they were processing the sounds. Those with a music background showed much more brain activities in response to the Chinese sounds.
The lead author of the study, Patrick C. M. Wong, said it might work both ways. It appears that native speakers of tonal languages may do better at learning instruments.
32. When learning Chinese, a foreigner will find _____.
A. it difficult to learn music at the same time
B. it not difficult to learn music at the same time
C. it hard to master the tones required to speak and understand
D. it easy to use the brain to help him discover changes in pitch
33 Why does Chinese learning have something to do with music training?
A. Because there is the same difficulty in learning Chinese and music.
B. Because skills to learn the two make use of the same parts of the brain.
C. Because music training might help people with language study.
D. Because people who do well in Chinese study do well in music.
34. The underlined word ''intoned'' in the fourth paragraph can be replaced by the word ''_____''.
A. created B. spelled
C. seemed D. pronounced
35. What would be the best title of this passage?
A. Mandarin Speakers Are Smarter than English Speakers
B. Skilled Ear for Music May Help Language Study
C. Pitch Plays a Central Role in Chinese Learning
D. Schools Need to Develop Music Programs

I’m a seventeen-year-old boy preparing for my A Level exams at the end of the year. In the society where my peers (同龄人) and I live, we tend to accept the rat race values. As students, we want to get good grades so that we can get good jobs. I enjoy studying and have consistently received A’s in my classes. There was a year when I finished first in my class in the final exams. It was a great accomplishment.
Another one I am pleased with is that I managed to improve the relationship between Mum and Dad. Dad was a successful businessman who was rarely at home. Mum was a housewife who always felt bored and constantly nagged (唠叨) him to let her go to work. Their constant arguing bothered me, so I advised Dad that Mum would be better off with a part-time job. He agreed, and their relationship has improved since then.
My most proud achievement, however, is my successful work in the local old folks’ home. My grandparents had raised me since I was a child. I wept (哭泣) bitterly when they died. Unlike many of my classmates, I do not take part in my school's community service to earn points. I enjoy my voluntary work and believe I’m contributing to a worthwhile cause. This is where I can help. I talk to the elderly, assist them with their daily life, and listen to their problems, glory days and the hardships they experienced.
Last year, I hosted a successful New Year party for the elderly and they enjoyed a great time. Many expressed a desire to attend another party the following year. When I reflect on my accomplishments, I’m especially proud of my service at the old folks’ home, so I hope to study social work at university and work as a social worker in the future. I wish to be more skilled in attending to the less fortunate as well as find great satisfaction in it, after all.

My grandmother grew up in a world different from me. She experienced many things in her long life.
Though she never told stories, her stories were in the way she ate — she savored (品味) her food, cherished (珍惜) it. Often she would be the first to sit at the dinner table, and the last to leave. Food had been really scarce (缺乏) when she grew up.
Her stories were in the way she handed me lucky money. From a young age, my grandmother was brought up to understand the importance of hard work and the necessary of saving. Every Chinese New Year, I would be handed, or sent, a small red envelope that contained money, but never more than twenty dollars. When I was young , I didn’t understand why my grandmother gave me such a small amount of money. As I grew older, I realized that she wasn’t teaching me about money, but about tradition and hard work and family. The money was insignificant. I would probably spend it on any toy that I would lose soon after; it was the meaning behind her gift that mattered. It was her saying, “ I love you; I am your family and I want you to work hard as your family has before you.”
My grandmother’s stories were lessons. But they were never told in words. From the time that I was very young, up until she could barely remember my name, I remember her calling me “good girl”. Those two little words, in the course of my growing up, were a constant reminder that I was still so young, with still so far to go.
Now my grandmother is gone, but I see her every day. I see her in the women around me and in the mirror. She lives with me, inside me, and in the legacies(遗产)that I will create. And I know she would be proud.
28. The Author’s grandmother spent so much time eating at the table because ________.
A. she had no teeth B. she had nothing to do
C. she was preparing to clear the table D. she really wanted to enjoy the food
29. What did the author learn from the way her grandmother gave her lucky money?
A. Her grandmother didn’t have much money.
B. Her grandmother preferred boys to girls.
C. It was a shame to accept others’ money.
D. It was important for her to work hard.
30. What did the author realize hearing her grandmother call her “good girl” ?
A. She was really a good girl.
B. She needed to continually improve herself.
C. She should be proud of her manners and behaviors.
D. She was always a good girl in her grandmother’s eyes.
31. What can we know about the author’s grandmother after reading the passage?

【分析】这是一篇记叙文。作者通过回忆表达了对祖母深深的思念,祖母为作者树立了很好的榜样,她的一些做法使自己明白了很多的道理。
【28题详解】
细节理解题。由第二段“she savored (品味) her food, cherished (珍惜)it. Often she would be the first to sit at the dinner table, and the last to leave.”可知,祖母品尝着食物,很珍惜食物。 她常常是第一个坐在餐桌旁,最后一个吃完离开的。所以作者的祖母花了那么多时间在餐桌旁吃饭,是因为她真的很想享受美食。故选D项。
【29题详解】
细节理解题。由第三段“As I grew older, I realized that she wasn’t teaching me about money, but about tradition and hard work and family. It was her saying, “I love you; I am your family and I want you to work hard as your family has before you.”可知,随着年龄增长,作者意识到祖母教给自己的不只是关于钱,而是关于传统、努力工作和对家庭的责任。祖母说:“我爱你;我是你的家人,我希望你像你们的家人一样努力工作。所以作者从她祖母给她压岁钱的方式中学到了自己要努力工作,这是很重要的。故选D项。
【30题详解】
推理判断题。由倒数第二段“Those two little words, in the course of my growing up, were a constant reminder that I was still so young, with still so far to go.”可知,在作者的成长过程中,这两个字,不断提醒作者,作者还很年轻,还有很长的路要走。由此判断出当作者听到她的祖母叫她“好女孩”时,作者认为她需要不断提高自己。故选B项。
【31题详解】
推理判断题。由最后一段“Now my grandmother is gone, but I see her every day. I see her in the women around me and in the mirror. She lives with me, inside me, and in the legacies (遗产) that I will create.”可知,现在作者的祖母去世了,但作者每天都能见到她。作者在她周围的女人和镜子里看到了她。她和作者生活在一起,活在作则的心里,活在作者要创造的美好明天里。由此判断出,祖母的言行给作者留下了深刻的印象,她为作者树立了很好的榜样。故选C项。
D
Any foreigner who has tried to learn Chinese can tell how hard it is to master the tones required to speak and understand. And anyone who has tried to learn to play the violin or other instruments can report similar challenges.
Now researchers have found that people with musical training have an easier time learning Chinese. Writing in the online edition of Nature Neuroscience, researchers from Northwestern University say that both skills draw on the same parts of the brain that help people discover changes in pitch(音高).
One of the study's authors, Nina Kraus, said the findings suggested that studying music ''actually tunes our sensory system''. This means that schools that want children to do well in languages should hesitate before cutting music programs, Dr. Kraus said. She said music training might also help children with language problems.
Mandarin(普通话)speakers have been shown to have a more complex encoding(编码) of pitch patterns in their brains than English speakers do. This is because in Mandarin and other Asian languages, pitch plays a central role. A single-syllable word can have several meanings depending on how it is intoned.
For this study, the researchers looked at 20 non-Chinese speaking volunteers, half with no musical background and half who have studied an instrument for at least six years.
As they were shown a movie, the volunteers also heard an audio tape of the Mandarin word ''mi'' in three of its meanings: squint, bewilder and rice. The researchers recorded activities in their brain stems to see how well they were processing the sounds. Those with a music background showed much more brain activities in response to the Chinese sounds.
The lead author of the study, Patrick C. M. Wong, said it might work both ways. It appears that native speakers of tonal languages may do better at learning instruments.
32. When learning Chinese, a foreigner will find _____.
A. it difficult to learn music at the same time
B. it not difficult to learn music at the same time
C. it hard to master the tones required to speak and understand
D. it easy to use the brain to help him discover changes in pitch
33. Why does Chinese learning have something to do with music training?
A. Because there is the same difficulty in learning Chinese and music.
B. Because skills to learn the two make use of the same parts of the brain.
C. Because music training might help people with language study.
D. Because people who do well in Chinese study do well in music.
34. The underlined word ''intoned'' in the fourth paragraph can be replaced by the word ''_____''.
A. created B. spelled
C. seemed D. pronounced
35. What would be the best title of this passage?
A. Mandarin Speakers Are Smarter than English Speakers
B. Skilled Ear for Music May Help Language Study
C. Pitch Plays a Central Role in Chinese Learning
D. Schools Need to Develop Music Programs
【答案】32. C 33. B 34. D 35. B
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇说明文。任何一个学过汉语的外国人都知道掌握说话和理解所需要的声调有多难。目前有研究人员发现,受过音乐训练的人学习语言更容易。
【32题详解】
细节理解题。由第一段的Any foreigner who has tried to learn Chinese can tell how hard it is to master the tones required to speak and understand.可知,任何一个学过汉语的外国人都知道掌握说话和理解所需要的声调有多难。C. it hard to master the tones required to speak and understand(很难掌握说话和理解时所需要的声调)符合以上说法,故选C项。
【33题详解】
细节理解题。由第二段的researchers from Northwestern University say that both skills draw on the same parts of the brain that help people discover changes in pitch(来自西北大学的研究人员说,学习汉语和音乐训练用到的是都是大脑相同的部位,这些部位有助于帮助人们发现音调中的变化。)可知,中文学习与音乐训练有关是因为学习两种技能需要用到大脑相同的部位。B. Because skills to learn the two make use of the same parts of the brain.(学习这两种节能都要用到大脑的相同部分)符合以上说法,故选B项。
【34题详解】
词义猜测题。由第四段This is because in Mandarin and other Asian languages, pitch plays a central role. A singlesyllable word can have several meanings depending on how it is intoned. 可知,在普通话和其他亚洲语言中,音调起着中心作用。一个单音节词,根据它如何toned,可以有几种意思。根据上下文语境,尤其是pitch可猜测划线部分的意思是“发音”。D. pronounced(发音)符合以上猜测,故选D项。
【35题详解】
主旨大意题。根据文章的主要内容,尤其是第二段的Now researchers have found that people with musical training have an easier time learning Chinese.(现在研究人员发现受过音乐训练的人在学习汉语方面会更加容易)和researchers from Northwestern University say that both skills draw on the same parts of the brain that help people discover changes in pitch(来自西北大学的研究人员说,学习汉语和音乐训练用到的是都是大脑相同的部位,这些部位有助于帮助人们发现音调中的变化。)可知,本文主要讲述研究表明,经过音乐训练的人,在学汉语方面会更加容易。音乐训练和汉语学习均用到了大脑相同的部位。该部位可以帮助人们更好地发现语调的变化,有助于人们学习语言。B. Skilled Ear for Music May Help Language Study(熟练的音乐听觉有助于语言学习)可以作为本文标题,故选B项。

______________________________________________________________________________
【答案】English plays a more and more important role in our daily life/English plays an increasingly important role in our daily life.
【解析】
【详解】考查固定短语。主语为English;表示“在……起着越来越重要的作用”短语为play a more and more important role in或play an increasingly important role in;表示“我们的日常生活”短语为our daily life。陈述客观事实用一般现在时。故翻译为English plays a more and more important role in our daily life./English plays an increasingly important role in our daily life.
107. 我们认为锻炼身体是很有必要的。(汉译英)
______________________________________________________________________________
【答案】We think that doing some exercise is necessary./We think that it is necessary to do some exercise./We think it necessary to do some exercise.
【解析】
【详解】考查动词、名词和形容词。根据句意可知,本句时态可用一般现在时表示经常性、习惯性动作;表示“我们”可用人称代词we;表示“认为”可用动词think,后面可用that引导宾语从句;在宾语从句中表示“锻炼身体”可用短语do some exercise,且此处用短语的动名词形式作主语,表示“是”可用be动词is,表示“必要的”可用形容词necessary作表语;此处的宾语从句中还可以用,it作形式主语,用动词不定式短语to do some exercise作真正的主语,或者think后面直接跟it作形式宾语用动词不定式to do some exercise作真正的宾语。故翻译为We think that doing some exercise is necessary./We think that it is necessary to do some exercise./We think it necessary to do some exercise.

109. 天气越来越冷了。(汉译英)
______________________________________________________________________________
【答案】It gets(It is getting) colder and colder.
【解析】
【详解】考查时态。本句话使用主系表结构。英语中描述天气常用代词it作主语,系动词用get,表示“变得”。“越来越冷”对应固定表达colder and colder。若强调“当前天气正在逐渐变冷”的动态过程,用现在进行时“is getting”,若陈述“天气(通常)会越来越冷”的客观规律或习惯性趋势,用一般现在时,主语是第三人称单数形式,谓语动词用gets。故翻译为It gets(It is getting) colder and colder.

______________________________________________________________________________
【答案】It rained last night, so we didn't go out./ Because it rained last night, we didn't go out. /It rained last night. We didn't go out.
【解析】
【详解】考查时态、原因状语从句。描述天气,主语用it,句首单词,首字母大写。表示“昨晚”用last night,作时间状语;表示“下雨”用rain,根据时间状语last night可知,句子时态为一般过去时,所以谓语动词用过去式rained;表示“所以”用so,连接两个句子表示因果关系。表示“我们”用we,作主语;表示“没有出去”用didn’t go out,其中didn't是助动词的否定形式,后接动词原形go。也可以用Because“因为”引导原因状语从句来表达因果关系,此时we didn't go out是主句,Because it rained last night是原因状语从句。还可以用两个简单句,中间用句号隔开来表达。故翻译为It rained last night, so we didn't go out./ Because it rained last night, we didn't go out. /It rained last night. We didn't go out.
