Discovery Trips in the Blue Mountains B A job is more than just a job, especially to the older generation. “It’s not the money that matters, but the sense of self­worth,” 56­year­old Cheng Wonlan said. So, every day Ms Cheng carries a bag of parcels, letters and documents of all shapes and sizes and does her rounds in North Point. She’s a courier (快递人员). Five years ago, Ms Cheng was a nurse at a private clinic. She had worked there for almost 30 years but was made jobless when the doctor migrated. It was extremely difficult for her to find another job. “People do not trust my ability when they learn how old I am,” she said. After two years of searching, the mother of two eventually found another nursing job. But then after two years, she quit. Why? “My colleagues were young and they didn’t understand me because of my age. They often asked me, ‘You are so old; what are you working for?’ I was very unhappy.” she said. So while the rest of her family left for work, she was left to lonely boredom at home. The urge to work drove her to suffering. Then, one of Ms Cheng’s neighbours told her about Employee’s Retraining Board (ERB) offering retraining courses for older people on specific occupations, such as convenience store assistants, junior clerks and so on. “I was interested in courier work. I didn’t think my age was a barrier because I was fit and healthy. So I thought why not give it a try.” she said. Upon graduation from the ERB, Ms Cheng was offered a job by the Speeding Shuttle Courier Service Company Limited. But then Ms Cheng was faced with a conflict: she was caught between honour and employment. It took Ms Cheng 24 hours to make up her mind and eventually came to the conclusion that there was nothing wrong or embarrassing about doing the job. So she took heart and went off to work as a courier. Ms Cheng’s employer is delighted with her, “Ms Cheng has been working with us for two months and has shown a good responsible attitude to work.” Anthony Chong, who runs the company, said. Currently, Mr. Chong has 60 couriers working for his company: five of them are over fifty, four of whom have been through the ERB plan. Mr. Chong said he hired older people because they were able and reliable. “Age is not an important factor but attitude is. Many old people are more capable than the youngsters. They will not run from difficulties but the young ones will.” he said. “It is not easy to recruit young people since they shy away from hardship and challenges.” 41. Why was it difficult for Ms Cheng to find another nursing job? A. Nursing clinics were hard to find. B. People thought that old people couldn’t be trusted. C. People thought she was too old to take on a new job. D. People didn’t think she had enough working experience. 42. Ms Cheng left her second nursing job because _______. A. the other staff made her feel uncomfortable B. it was too difficult C. she was too old to do the job D she was bored with changeless jobs 43. Employee’s Retraining Board is a plan for _______. A. finding jobs for older people B. teaching new skills to older people C. training older people to be couriers D. providing older people with something to do in their spare time 44. According to Anthony Chong, young people _______. A. are able and reliable B. are more likely to give up than the older ones C. are fitter and stronger than the older ones D. are less experienced than the older ones 45. From the text, we can learn Ms Cheng is _______. A. capable but stubborn B. purposeful but lazy C. determined and responsible D. intelligent and confident C A well-dressed man entered a famous jewelry shop. He explained that he wished to buy a pearl for his wife’ s birthday. The price didn’t matter, since business had been very good for him that year. After examining a nice black one that costs $5, 000, he paid for the pearl in cash, shook hands with the jeweler, and left. A few days later the man returned and said that his wife liked the pearl so much that she wanted another one just like it. It had to be exactly the same size and quality as she wanted a pair of earrings made. "Can you give me any advice on how to get such a pearl?" said the man. The jeweler regretfully replied, "I would say it’s exactly impossible to find one exactly like that pearl." The rich man insisted that the jeweler advertise in the newspapers, offering $25,000 for the matching pearl. Many people answered the advertisement but nobody had a pearl that was just right. Just when the jeweler had given up hope, a little old lady came into his store. To his great surprise, she pulled the perfect pearl from her purse." " I don’t like to part with it." she said sadly, I got it from my mother, and ,my mother got it from her’ s. But I really need the money. The jeweler was quickly to pay her before she changed her mind .Then he called the rich man’s hotel to tell him the good news .The man ,however ,was nowhere to be found. 46 The man said he wanted to buy a pearl for _____ . A. his wife B. his mother-in-law C. his own mother D. no one 47. He paid $5,000 for the black pearl without bargaining (讨价还价) because______. A. he was very rich.

A. exactly the same size as the black one B. exactly the same quality as the black one C. worth more than $25,000 D. exactly as big and nice as the black one 49. Many people answer the advertisement because they wanted______. A. to see the perfect pearl B. to buy some beautiful pearl too C. to get in touch with the rich man D. to sell their own pearl at a high price 50. The jeweler couldn’t find the man anywhere because ______. A. he died suddenly B. he happened to be out C. he got $20,000 by cheating and had run away with the money D. he wouldn’t show up until the jeweler called him a second time D American love pets. Many pet owners treat these friends as part of the family. Sometimes they spice their pets’ life with entertaining videos and amusing toys. If they have an eye for fashion, pet owners can dress their pets in fashionable clothes. For special occasions, they can use perfume to make their dogs smell well. Leading a dog’s life in America isn’t such a bad thing. Many grocery stores sell various pet foods to owners eager to please their pets. In Houston, Texas dogs can have their dinner delivered to their homes. Well-to-do dogs can attend doggy daycare center, which is usually expensive, while their owners work. Pets can even accompany their owners on vacation. Fancy hotels are beginning to accommodate both man the beast. Beneath all these things, there lies a basic American belief: pets have a right to be treated well. At least 75 animal welfare organizations exist in America. They provide care and adoption service for homeless and abused (被虐待的) animals. Vet (兽医) can give animals an incredible level of medical care for an incredible price. People can even bury their pets in a respectable cemetery. The average American enjoys having pets around for a good reason. Researchers have discovered that interaction with animals lowers a person’s blood pressure. Dogs can offer protection from burglars and unwelcome visitors. Cats can help rid the home of unwanted pests. Pets even encourage social relationships: they give their owners an appearance of friendliness, and they provide a good topic of conversation. Pets are basic to American culture as hot dogs or apple pies. To Americans, pets are not just property, but part of the family. After all, pets are “people”, too. 51. The underlined phrase “have an eye for” (in Paragraph 1) probably means ________. A. look down upon B. look up to C. have a proper sense of D. keep a watch on 52. Dogs can even attend doggy daycare centers if ________. A. their owners are wealthy B. their owners are eager to please them C. they do well while their owners are at work D. they are very clever 53.

Americans believe that pets have a right to be treated well D. there are many animal welfare organizations in America 54. It can be learned from the passage that dogs ________. A. can deliver dinner to their homes in Houston B. are liked by Americans better than cats C. can offer burglars and unwelcome visitors protection D. can provide companionship and love for people 55.

Keith Walker, an Atlanta-based homeless man, could have run in the other direction when he saw local animal shelter W-Underdogs on fire. But he ran towards the fire instead and saved all the animals caught inside, though he was in great danger himself. “I was nervous; I’m not going to lie. I was really scared to go in there with all that smoke. But my heart put me there to save those animals,” Walker said. “If you love a dog, you can love anyone in the world. My dog is my best friend, and I wouldn’t be here without him, so I knew I had to save all those other dogs.” The shelter is currently greatly wrecked by the fire and it couldn’t safely inhabit the dogs, says founder Gracie Hamlin, so all the animals have been safely moved to another shelter. “He is my guardian angel,” Hamlin said. “Even the firefighters didn’t want to deal with the dogs. They called animal control, but Keith was already in the building pulling out the cats and dogs until they were all safe.” Hamlin and Walker had already known each other because Walker, who has been homeless since he was 13, keeps his own dog, a pitbull (斗牛犬) named Bravo, at the shelter every night. In fact, Walker came across the fire when he was on his way to pick up Bravo to take him for a walk. And that was how he was able to rescue all the animals—6 dogs and 10 cats. Before you look down on homeless persons, remember that they are people just like you—and some of them are great, like Keith Walker. 56. What did Walker do when he found the animal shelter on fire? (no more than 12 words) 57. What does the underlined word in Paragraph 5 probably mean? (1 word) 58. What did Walker intend to do at first before coming across the fire? (no more than 10 words) 59.

So, every day Ms Cheng carries a bag of parcels, letters and documents of all shapes and sizes and does her rounds in North Point. She’s a courier (快递人员). Five years ago, Ms Cheng was a nurse at a private clinic. She had worked there for almost 30 years but was made jobless when the doctor migrated. It was extremely difficult for her to find another job. “People do not trust my ability when they learn how old I am,” she said. After two years of searching, the mother of two eventually found another nursing job. But then after two years, she quit. Why? “My colleagues were young and they didn’t understand me because of my age. They often asked me, ‘You are so old; what are you working for?’ I was very unhappy.” she said. So while the rest of her family left for work, she was left to lonely boredom at home. The urge to work drove her to suffering. Then, one of Ms Cheng’s neighbours told her about Employee’s Retraining Board (ERB) offering retraining courses for older people on specific occupations, such as convenience store assistants, junior clerks and so on. “I was interested in courier work. I didn’t think my age was a barrier because I was fit and healthy. So I thought why not give it a try.” she said. Upon graduation from the ERB, Ms Cheng was offered a job by the Speeding Shuttle Courier Service Company Limited. But then Ms Cheng was faced with a conflict: she was caught between honour and employment. It took Ms Cheng 24 hours to make up her mind and eventually came to the conclusion that there was nothing wrong or embarrassing about doing the job. So she took heart and went off to work as a courier. Ms Cheng’s employer is delighted with her, “Ms Cheng has been working with us for two months and has shown a good responsible attitude to work.” Anthony Chong, who runs the company, said. Currently, Mr. Chong has 60 couriers working for his company: five of them are over fifty, four of whom have been through the ERB plan. Mr. Chong said he hired older people because they were able and reliable. “Age is not an important factor but attitude is. Many old people are more capable than the youngsters. They will not run from difficulties but the young ones will.” he said. “It is not easy to recruit young people since they shy away from hardship and challenges.” 41. Why was it difficult for Ms Cheng to find another nursing job? A. Nursing clinics were hard to find. B. People thought that old people couldn’t be trusted. C. People thought she was too old to take on a new job. D. People didn’t think she had enough working experience. 42. Ms Cheng left her second nursing job because _______. A. the other staff made her feel uncomfortable B. it was too difficult C. she was too old to do the job D. she was bored with changeless jobs 43. Employee’s Retraining Board is a plan for _______. A. finding jobs for older people B. teaching new skills to older people C. training older people to be couriers D. providing older people with something to do in their spare time 44. According to Anthony Chong, young people _______. A. are able and reliable B. are more likely to give up than the older ones C. are fitter and stronger than the older ones D. are less experienced than the older ones 45. From the text, we can learn Ms Cheng is _______. A. capable but stubborn B. purposeful but lazy C. determined and responsible D. intelligent and confident 【答案】41. C 42. A 43. B 44. B 45. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了一位老年人找工作的经历。 【41题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段的“People do not trust my ability when they learn how old I am.

They often asked me, ‘You are so old; what are you working for?’ I was very unhappy.” she said.(“我的同事都很年轻，因为我的年龄，她们不理解我。他们经常问我：‘你这么大了；你为什么工作？’我很不高兴。”她说)”可知，程女士离开了她的第二份护理工作，因为其他工作人员让她感到不舒服。故选A。 【43题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“Then, one of Ms Cheng’s neighbours told her about Employee’s Retraining Board (ERB) offering retraining courses for older people on specific occupations, such as convenience store assistants, junior clerks and so on.

They will not run from difficulties but the young ones will.(许多老人比年轻人更有能力。他们不会逃避困难，但年轻人会)”和“It is not easy to recruit young people since they shy away from hardship and challenges.(招募年轻人并不容易，因为他们害怕困难和挑战)” 可知，根据Anthony Chong的说法，年轻人比年长的人更容易放弃。故选B。 【45题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“Ms Cheng has been working with us for two months and has shown a good responsible attitude to work. (程女士已经和我们一起工作了两个月，表现出了良好的负责任的工作态度)” 以及“Age is not an important factor but attitude is. Many old people are more capable than the youngsters. They will not run from difficulties but the young ones will. (年龄不是一个重要因素，但态度是。许多老人比年轻人更有能力。他们不会逃避困难，但年轻人会)”可推知，程女士是一个有决心和责任心的人。故选C。 C A well-dressed man entered a famous jewelry shop.

Keith Walker, an Atlanta-based homeless man, could have run in the other direction when he saw local animal shelter W-Underdogs on fire. But he ran towards the fire instead and saved all the animals caught inside, though he was in great danger himself. “I was nervous; I’m not going to lie. I was really scared to go in there with all that smoke. But my heart put me there to save those animals,” Walker said. “If you love a dog, you can love anyone in the world. My dog is my best friend, and I wouldn’t be here without him, so I knew I had to save all those other dogs.” The shelter is currently greatly wrecked by the fire and it couldn’t safely inhabit the dogs, says founder Gracie Hamlin, so all the animals have been safely moved to another shelter. “He is my guardian angel,” Hamlin said. “Even the firefighters didn’t want to deal with the dogs. They called animal control, but Keith was already in the building pulling out the cats and dogs until they were all safe.” Hamlin and Walker had already known each other because Walker, who has been homeless since he was 13, keeps his own dog, a pitbull (斗牛犬) named Bravo, at the shelter every night. In fact, Walker came across the fire when he was on his way to pick up Bravo to take him for a walk. And that was how he was able to rescue all the animals—6 dogs and 10 cats. Before you look down on homeless persons, remember that they are people just like you—and some of them are great, like Keith Walker. 56. What did Walker do when he found the animal shelter on fire? (no more than 12 words) 57. What does the underlined word in Paragraph 5 probably mean? (1 word) 58. What did Walker intend to do at first before coming across the fire? (no more than 10 words) 59. What kind of person is Walker according to the passage? (1 word) 60. What inspiration do you get from the story? Please say it in your own words. (no more than 20 words) 【答案】56. He ran towards the fire and saved all the animals caught inside. Or: He ran into the fire to save all the animals in it. 57. Damaged / Destroyed. 58. To pick up Bravo to take him for a walk. 59. Brave/ Good-hearted/Loving/ Kind. 60. Animals are our best friends, and we should protect them against hurt. Or: Keith Walker is a hero who risked his life to save animals. Or: Don’t look down upon homeless people, because they can also make a great difference. 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。讲述了流浪者Keith Walker在动物收容所外看到起火时，冲进去把里面被困的动物都救了出来。 【56题详解】 考查细节理解。根据第二段“Keith Walker, an Atlanta-based homeless man, could have run in the other direction when he saw local animal shelter W-Underdogs on fire. But he ran towards the fire instead and saved all the animals caught inside, though he was in great danger himself.(Keith Walker是亚特兰大的一名流浪汉，当他看到当地的动物收容所W-Underdogs着火时，他本可以跑向另一个方向。但是他却跑向火灾现场，救了所有被困在火里的动物，尽管他自己也很危险)”可知，在发现着火时，Walker没有逃跑，而是跑向火灾那里，去救出了被困动物。故答案为He ran towards the fire and saved all the animals caught inside. Or: He ran into the fire to save all the animals in it. 【57题详解】 考查词义猜测。根据划线词所在句子“The shelter is currently greatly wrecked by the fire and it couldn’t safely inhabit the dogs, says founder Gracie Hamlin, so all the animals have been safely moved to another shelter.(该收容所的创始人格雷西·哈姆林说，目前该收容所被大火严重wrecked，无法让狗狗安全地居住，所以所有的动物都已被安全转移到另一个收容所)”可知，动物们目前已经转移到另一个收容所，可知原来的收容所因大火的缘故已经不能居住，应该是屋舍被损坏。故答案为Damaged / Destroyed. 【58题详解】 考查细节理解。根据倒数第三段“Hamlin and Walker had already known each other because Walker, who has been homeless since he was 13, keeps his own dog, a pitbull (斗牛犬) named Bravo, at the shelter every night. (哈姆林和沃克已经认识了，因为沃克从13岁起就无家可归，他每天晚上都在收容所养自己的狗，一只名叫布拉沃的斗牛犬)”和倒数第二段“In fact, Walker came across the fire when he was on his way to pick up Bravo to take him for a walk. (事实上，沃克是在去接布拉沃去散步的路上遇到火灾的)”可知，沃克自己养了一只狗，他自己无家可归，所以他的狗也只能住在收容所，他每天都去接他出来散步，这天他是去接他的狗散步的时候发现收容所起火了。故答案为To pick up Bravo to take him for a walk. 【59题详解】 考查推理判断。根据第二段“But he ran towards the fire instead and saved all the animals caught inside, though he was in great danger himself.(但是他却跑向火灾现场，救了所有被困在火里的动物，尽管他自己也很危险)”可知，他知道自己有危险还冲进火场救小动物们，Walker是勇敢的，有爱心的。故答案为Brave/ Good-hearted/Loving/ Kind. 【60题详解】 考查推理判断。纵观全文，Walker冒生命危险去救小动物，我们很受启示，动物是人类的朋友，我们人类要保护他们；Walker虽然身无分文，无家可归，可是他冒生命危险去救那些动物，真是个英雄人物，令人敬佩；不要看不起无家可归的人，因为他们也能带来巨大的改变。故答案为Animals are our best friends, and we should protect them against hurt. Or: Keith Walker is a hero who risked his life to save animals. Or: Don’t look down upon homeless people, because they can also make a great difference. 第二节：书面表达（满分25分） 61. 假定你是李华。寒假将至，有些学生会对手机产生严重的依赖。针对这一情况，请你在校英文报上发表文章，呼吁同学们在寒假期间合理使用手机。内容包括： 1. 手机主要是工作、学习和通信的工具： 2. 长时间玩手机的危害； 3. 提出建议。 注意： 1. 词数120左右： 2. 可以适当增加细节，以使行文连贯。 ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】例文 With the popularization of smart phones, many students have unluckily been addicted to cellphones.
