When therapy wasn't working well for me,I signed up for a hot yoga class for girls,Bikram Yoga to be exact.Starting a yoga practice was truly a godsend because it helped me gain strength in my knees but, most importantly,yoga helped me attain a more peaceful state of mind,body and spirit. Since each class was heated to 105F,every time I stepped foot in the yoga studio,I'd feel a surge (of negative thoughts come upon me like a big ocean wave,Some of these thoughts were,in the beginning of my practice,so strong that I walked out of the class several times.However,as the months passed by,I noticed that when I didn't get swayed away by my negative thoughts,I could stay in the hot room for longer. After 3-4 months of practicing hot yoga,my arms and legs were beginning to get definition.I also 试卷第6页，共10页 woke up with so much more energy than I had before starting my yoga practice and I gradually started shedding the pounds from my body.Yoga literally made me feel as if I'd taken a shot of energy drink and just gave me that burst that helped my knees heal and made my overalt health better. As I saw some of my classmates do poses that jooked appealing to me,I started to think maybe I could do them too.Therefore,yoga helped show me that I have no real limitations physically unless I set those limitations myself through eating junk and thinking in negative limiting terms. Also,practicing yoga in front of a mirror helped me connect with myself and practicing with a group of people really helped me to feel a greater sense of connection with humanity whereas before I didn't.Overall,this yoga practice has helped me to see I'm part of a bigger picture in life! 56.What oncc depressed the author terribly?

Q Once when I was facing a decision that involved high risk,I went to a friend.He looked at me for a moment,and then wrote a sentence containing the best advice I've ever had:Be bold and brave-and mighty(强大的)forces will come to your aid. Those words made me see clearly that when I had fallen short in the past,it was seldom because I had tried and failed.It was usually because I had let fear of failure stop me from irying at all.On the other hand,whenever I had plunged into deep water,forced by courage or circumstance I had always been able to swim until I got my feet on the ground again. Boldness()means a decision to bite off more than you can eat.And there is nothing mysterious about the mighty forces.They are potential powers we possess:energy,skill,sound judgment, creative ideas-even physical strength greater than most of us realize. Admittedly those mighty forces are spiritual ones.But they are more important than physical ones. 试卷第7页，共10页 A college classmate of mine,Tim,was an excellent footbail player,even though he weighed inuch less than the average player."In one game I suddenly found myself confronting a huge player,who had nothing but me between him and our goal line,"said Tim."I was so frightened that I closed my eyes and desperately threw myself at that guy like a bullet(子弹)一and stopped him cold.” Boldness-a willingness to extend yourself to the extreme-is not one that can be acquired overnight.But it can be taught to children and developed in adults.Confidence builds up.Surely,there will be setbacks (and disappointments in life;boldness in itself is no guarantee of success.But the person who tries to do something and fails is a lot better off than the person who tries to do nothing and succeeds. So,always try to live a little bit beyond your abilities-and you'll find your abilities are greater than you ever dreamed. 61.Why was the author sometimes unable to reach his goal in the past? A.He faced huge risks. B.He lacked mighty forces. C.Fear prevented him from trying. D.Failure blocked his way to success. 62.What is the implied meaning of the underlined part?

D.Learn to make creative decisions. 63.What was especially important for Tim's successful defense in the football game? A.His physical strength. B.His basic skill. C.His real fear. D.His spiritual force. 64.What can be learned from Paragraph 5? A.Confidence grows more rapidly in adults B.Trying without success is meaningless. C Repeated failure creates a better life. D.Boldness can be gained little by little 65.What is the author's purpose in writing this passage? A.To encourage people to be courageous. B.To advise people to build up physical power. To tell people the ways to guarantee success. D.To recommend people to develop more abilities. O Although computer technology is often necessary today,using a pen or pencil activates more areas of your brain than a keyboard does.You can potentially remember more by handwriting,according to a new study. The potential benefits of handwriting for memory have been debated for some time.The new study set out to answer one question:How does handwriting compare to using a keyboard when it comes to remembering new information? In total 24 participants took part.Researchers asked each of them to write with a pen and then each was also asked to type on a keyboard.While performing these tasks,each volunteer wore a cap that held electrodes (next to their head.It looked somewhat like a hair net fitted with 256 sensors.Those sensors recorded the participants'brainwaves.The electrodes noted which parts of the brain turned on during each task.And they showed that writing turned on memory areas in the brain while typing didn't. Audrey van der Meer,the new study's leader,says this suggests that when we write by hand,we 试卷第8页，共10页 remember better."This is because writing involves complex movements that activate more areas of the brain.The increased brain activity gives the brain more hooks'to hang your memories on."she explains.Van der Meer also points out that writing by hand is related to visual notetaking."Rather than typing blindly,the visual notetaker has to think about what is important to write down.Then,key words can be interlinked by boxes,arrows and small drawings,*she adds. This study does not recommend banning digital devices.In fact,its authors point out,computers and other devices with keyboards have become necessary in modern society.Keyboarding can especially benefit those with certain special needs(such as if they have trouble using fheir hands)and typing beats writing when it comes to speed,they add. 66.Why were participants asked to wear caps in the study? A.To record their brainwaves. B.To inform them of their tasks. C.To allow them to focus on writing. D.To protect their heads like hair nets. 67.What does Audrey van der Meer try to explain? A.Why handwriting is more complex than typing. B.Why the brain works when it comes to learning. C.Why small drawings are connected to memory. D.Why key words are helpful to visual notetaking. 68.What is the meaning of the underlined part in Paragraph 4? A.helps you to remember more details. B.reminds you to have regular reviews C.tags your memories for further recalling.B.eases your tension of memorizing things. 69.What is the study's authors'view on typing? A.It relieves people's hands B.It remains vital and helpful. C.It is not worth recommending. D.It is more challenging than writing. 70.Which of the following can be a suitable title for the text? A.How Can You Remember New Information? B.Handwriting Benefits Health in the Long Run C.Should Typing Take the Place of Handwriting? D.Handwriting Is Better for Memory Than Typing 第Ⅱ卷非选择题（共35分） 第四部分：写作（共两节，满分35分） 第一节阅读表达（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分） 阅读短文，并按照题目要求用英语回答问题。 You've got to know your own value,know what you want,and stick with it.That's what T. McDowell's advice to others is and it's certainly worked for him.This high school senior is currently the owner of Immersion Imaging,a successful company specializing in Internet commerce solutions and online financial databases. McDowell launched the company in 2012,which was originally called 4th Dimension Graphics.Two years later,it was recognized as Immersion Imaging.Surprisingly,he didn't begin the company with the assistance of any partner,but instead founded it on his own with the experience and contacts that he already had. "It's always been a one-person operation.I could easily take on partners or scale up the business some more,but I want to keep it this way for now."McDowell said.I don't lack any contracts right now.I 试卷第9页，共10页 like it because it's flexible,so that if I need more income,I can do more;and if I lake a break for a while,I don't have any problems."If McDowell spends between 30 and 60 hours a week working.Immersion Imaging will offer him a steady income. Part of the reason why MeDowell ended up in the computer industry might be explained by the exposure he had as a child.However,he spends his free time on more than just computers.His real interest lies in aviation().With his business spirit and success.McDowell won't have a problem realizing his dreams of the sky one day. 71.What does McDowell's company focus on?(no more than 10 words) 72.What does the underlined phrase"scale up"in Para.3 probably mean?(1 word) 73.Why does McDowell want his company to be a one-person operation?(no more than 5 words) 74.How can McDowell enjoy a steady income?(no more than 10 words) 75.How does McDowell's advice inspire you?Please explain in your own words.(no more than 25 words) 第二节书面表达（满分25分） 6.假设你是晨光中学的李津。为配合学校的“读书月”活动，你校英语社团的微信公众号开展 以“Let's Read”为题的征文活动。要求同学们根据个人的阅读体会，从所读过的书籍中选定一 种类型，推荐给其他同学。现请你投稿，文章内容应包括： (1)推荐书籍的类型及特点： (2)推荐的理由。参考词汇： 科幻小说science fiction侦探小说detective novel魔幻小说fantasy 传记文学biography科普读物popular science 注意： （1)词数不少于100； (2)所选书籍类型不限于参考词汇给出的范围； (3)内容充实、行文连贯； (4)题目已给出，不计入总词数。 By Li Jin 试卷第10页，共10页
