At school, when he walked into a room full of noisy boys, there was silence at once. When he looked at a boy with a certain look in his eyes, that boy went red in the face, and looked down at his shoes. If a boy brought him poor, careless work, which was not the best that boy could do, my grandfather picked up the boy’s book and threw it across the room, shouting, “Do it all again, and bring it back early in the morning!” If the boy was late, or if he forgot to bring the work, he had to do it again and again, and yet again. My grandfather never forgot. He was a very different man at school from the man I saw day by day in his own home. 41. I know my grandfather was kind and gentle, because ______.

(当他带着某种眼神看着一个男孩时，那个男孩的脸涨得通红，低下头看着自己的鞋子。)”可知，当他带着某种眼神看着一个男孩时，他脸涨得通红，无法直视爷爷的目光。故选A项。 【43题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段第三句“If a boy brought him poor, careless work, which was not the best that boy could do, my grandfather picked up the boy’s book and threw it across the room (如果一个男孩给他带来糟糕的、粗心的作业，这不是一个男孩能做的最好的，我爷爷就会拿起那个男孩的书，把它扔到房间的另一边)”可知，爷爷不接受没有尽全力完成的作业。故选C项。 【44题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段第三句“If a boy brought him poor, careless work, which was not the best that boy could do, my grandfather picked up the boy’s book and threw it across the room, shouting, “Do it all again, and bring it back early in the morning!” (如果一个男孩给他带来又差又粗心的作业，这不是一个男孩能做的最好的作业，我爷爷就会拿起那个男孩的书，把它扔到房间的另一边，喊道：“再做一遍，明早再带回来！”)”可知，当爷爷收到糟糕的作业时，就会对着那个男孩大喊，并把他的作业扔到房间的另一边。故选A项。 【45题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段最后一句“He was a very different man at school from the man I saw day by day in his own home. (他在学校里和我每天在他家里看到的那个人大不相同。)”并结合作者对爷爷温和善良的认知及第二段描述爷爷在学校严厉易怒的行为可知，爷爷在家和学校判若两人，是因为他在家很少发怒。故选D项。 C Human beings have always had an ability to attend to several things at once. Nor is electronic multitasking entirely new! We’ve been driving while listening to car radios since they became popular in the 1930s. But there is no doubt that multitasking has reached a kind of warp speed in the era of Web-enabled computers, when it has become routine to conduct several IM (即时通讯) conversations, watch TV and use the computer all at once. But what’s the impact of this media consumption? And how are these multitasking devices changing how kids learn, reason and communicate with one another? Social scientists and educators are just beginning to deal with these questions, but the researchers already have some strong opinions. Although multitasking kids may be better prepared in some ways for today’s fast-paced work placed, many scientists are positively alarmed by the trend. Kids that are instant messaging while doing homework, playing games online and watching TV, aren’t going to do well in the long run. On the positive side, multitasking students tend to be extraordinarily good at finding and using information. And probably because modern childhood centers around visual (视觉的) rather than print media, they are especially skilled at analyzing visual data and images. Many educators and psychologists say parents need to actively insure that their teenagers break free of uncontrollable engagement with screens and spend time in the physical company of human beings — a growing challenge not just because technology offers such a handy option but because many teenagers and college students say over-committed (任务过量的) schedules drives much of their multitasking. Just as important is for parents and educator to teach kids that it’s valuable, even essential, to occasionally slow down, unplugs and take time to enjoy life beyond the screen. 46. What is the main idea of this passage? A. How is multitasking defined in the information age? B. How do people see new technology and the social change it brings about? C. How does technology change modern family life? D. What’s the impact of multitasking on young people? 47. The expression “warp speed” in the first paragraph is closest in meaning to ______. A. low speed B. high speed C. steady speed D. too much time alone 48. According to some teenagers and college students, what causes their multitasking? A. Too much tasks and arrangements. B. Too much time alone. C. Inability to focus. D. Fear of being neglected. 49. According to the passage, which of the following statement is TRUE? A. Humans have begun to engage in the multitasking behaviors since the information age. B. Multitasking is a critical skill that students are required to learn at school. C. Only parents can help their kids to get rid of the multitasking habits. D. Multitasking may prepare students for the reality of today’s fast-paced work environment. 50. What do educators and psychologist advise parents to do about their multitasking kids? A. To cut off home internet connection. B To seek medical treatment. C. To encourage their kids to have some social life. D. To help their kids to set personal goals. 【答案】46. D 47. B 48. A 49. D 50. C 【解析】 【导语】本文为一篇说明文。文章讲述了在当今网络计算机时代，出现了多重任务处理的现象，文章主要讲述了多重任务对于孩子的影响。 46题详解】 主旨大意题。根据文章第二段“But what’s the impact of this media consumption? And how are these multitasking devices changing how kids learn, reason and communicate with one another?(但是这种媒体消费的影响是什么呢？这些多重任务设备如何改变孩子的学习、推理和交流方式呢？)”可知，本文主要讲述的是多重任务对孩子的影响，故选D。 【47题详解】 词句猜测题。根据划线短语“warp speed”的后文内容“when it has become routine to conduct several IM (即时通讯) conversations, watch TV and use the computer all at once.(同时进行几次即时通讯对话、看电视和使用电脑已成为惯例)”可知，多重任务处理已经成为了惯例，故此处的“warp speed”与B项“高速发展”意思相近，故选B。 【48题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章倒数第二段“a growing challenge not just because technology offers such a handy option but because many teenagers and college students say over-committed (任务过量的) schedules drives much of their multitasking.(这是一个越来越大的挑战，不仅仅因为科技提供了如此方便的选择，还因为许多青少年和大学生表示过度任务的日程安排在很大程度上推动了他们的多任务处理)”可知，导致青少年和大学生多重任务处理是因为他们每天太多的任务和安排，故选A。 【49题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第三段“Although multitasking kids may be better prepared in some ways for today’s fast-paced work placed, many scientists are positively alarmed by the trend.(尽管在谋学方面，多任务处理的孩子可能会为当今快节奏的工作做好更好的准备，但许多科学家对这一趋势感到震惊)”可知，D项“多重任务处理的孩子可以为当今快节奏的工作环境做好准备。”是正确的。故选D。 【50题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章倒数第二段“Many educators and psychologists say parents need to actively insure that their teenagers break free of uncontrollable engagement with screens and spend time in the physical company of human beings (许多教育工作者和心理学家表示，父母需要积极确保他们的青少年摆脱对屏幕的无法控制的接触，花时间与人在一起接触)”可知，教育工作者和心理学家建议父母应该鼓励孩子摆脱屏幕，多与人接触，有一些社交生活。故选C。 D The older we get the more mature we are, and the more we learn, the more able we are to know what’s right. It seems to be right, but it’s not the case. Sometimes the aging process can obliterate the natural aspects that keep us curious and give us strength to figure out what to do. Children of all ages teach us lessons in our own lives. When a kid says “That wasn’t nice.” “I don’t like your shirt.” Or “I hate that kind of food!”, we should know it’s a natural reaction to forbid the child to do so. But what he says is true. Children will often see a wrong thing being done and interrupt to say it’s not right. As adults, we tend to sit on the sidelines and melt into the background rather than hold a strong opinion or say something that might be unpopular. Kids cry, stomp (跺脚) their feet or yell with excitement while it isn’t socially acceptable for an adult. Letting emotions out and then moving on objectively to deal with something can be great. So jump and yell when you are happy about something. Have a good cry when being upset. Stomp or throw a pillow when you’re alone and need to release. Most of life becomes a series of dull things once you reach a certain age. Finding pleasure and laughing seem out of place or silly when we gain knowledge or skills. And yet, the evidence on the power of laughter is very great and enjoying something can be the best way to learn it. “Why is the sky blue?” “How much does an elephant weigh?” There are certain things that the Internet can tell you. But what about learning something in the first hand like doing the science experiment in the kitchen and digging up rocks in the backyard? Don’t stop exploring. Be in the real word and find new learning. 51. What does the underlined word “obliterate” in Paragraph 1 mean? A. be beneficial to B. learn from C. do damage to D. provide for 52. Compared with children, adults are unlikely to ______. A. express their ambitions freely B. show their inner feelings directly C. say something popular with others D. handle their daily difficulties properly 53. What can we infer from Paragraph 4? A. Life is full of various challenges. B. Knowledge and skills are quite important. C. Being joyful has a positive influence. D. Having fun is the most important thing to kids. 54. What is the last paragraph intended to do? A. To remind us to protect the environment. B. To ask us to live in the real world. C. To persuade us not to rely much on the Internet. D. To advise us to keep curious about things around us. 55. Which sentence of the following does the author probably agree with? A. Being adults is different from being children. B. Being adults doesn’t mean we are smarter. C. It’s not easy for children to grow into adults. D. It’s necessary to listen to what the children say. 【答案】51. C 52. B 53. C 54. D 55. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇议论文。作者认为年龄的增长会抹去一些孩童特有的天性，比如好奇心、探索欲、对于情感和内心想法的直接表达，我们应该向孩童学习，保持这些珍贵的天性。 【51题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第一段前两句“The older we get, the more mature we are, and the more we learn, the more able we are to know what’s right. It seems to be right, but it’s not the case.(年龄越大，我们越成熟，我们学得越多，我们就越能知道什么是正确的。这似乎是对的，但事实并非如此。)”可知，此处是指年龄的增长会抹杀好奇和探索的天性，所以obliterate意为“损害”。故选C。 【52题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“As adults, we tend to sit on the sidelines and melt into the background rather than hold a strong opinion or say something that might be unpopular.(作为成年人，我们倾向于坐在场边，融入背景，而不是持有强烈的观点或说一些可能不受欢迎的话。)”可知，相对于孩童，成年人不太可能直接表达内心的想法。故选B。 【53题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段第二句和第三句“Letting emotions out and then moving on objectively to deal with something can be great. So jump and yell when you are happy about something.(释放情绪，然后客观地处理一些事情是很好的。所以，当你对某事感到高兴时，就跳起来大喊大叫。)”可知，快乐有积极的影响。故选C。 【54题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段最后三句“But what about learning something in the first hand like doing the science experiment in the kitchen and digging up rocks in the backyard? Don’t stop exploring. Be in the real word and find new learning.(但是，如果你能亲自学习一些东西呢？比如在厨房里做科学实验、在后院挖石头。不要停止探索。置身于现实世界中，学习新的知识。)”可知，最后一段是为了建议我们对周围的事物保持好奇。故选D。 【55题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段最后一句“Children of all ages teach us lessons in our own lives.(各个年龄段的孩子在我们的生活中都给我们上了一课。)”可知，作者可能认同“成为成年人并不意味着我们更聪明”的说法。故选B。 五、阅读表达(10分)阅读短文，并按照题目要求用英语回答问题。 阅读短文，并按照题目要求用英语回答问题。 Last summer, Katie Steller pulled off' the freeway on her way to work. She stopped at a traffic light, where a man was sitting with a sign asking for help. Rolled down her window. “Hey!” she shouted. “I'm driving around giving free haircuts. Do you want one right now?” “Actually,” the man said, “I was really hoping to get a haircut.” “I'll be right back,” Steller said. She drove off, went to the salon she owns, and recruited one of her stylists to help her load a red chair into her car. Then the two of them drove back, and trimmed the man's curly graying hair. He told them about growing up in Mississippi, about moving to be closer to his adult children, and now he still talks to his mom every day. After Steller was done, the man looked in a mirror, “I look good!” he said. To date, Steller has given 30 or so such haircuts to people around the city. These people are all living on the margins, and she is keenly aware of the power of her cleanup job. “It's more than a haircut,” she says, “I want it to be a gateway, to show value and respect, but also to get to know people and build relationships.” Steller knows that a haircut can change a life. “Part of what broke my heart was just how lonely people looke,” she says. “I thought maybe I'd go around and ask if people want free haircuts. I can't fix their problems, but maybe I can help them feel less alone for a moment.” Steller listens to people's stories of loss, addiction, and struggle to get back on their feet. The attention apparently works. When she was cutting a woman's hair one day, someone drove by and yelled, “You look amazing!” The woman in the chair smiled. “I'm not invisible,” she exclaimed, “thought I was invisible. Look, people see me!” And it all began with a belief in simple acts of kindness, such as a free haircut. “The way you show up in the world matters,” says Steller. “You have no idea what people are going to do with the kindness that you give them.” 56. Why did Steller stop at a traffic light? (No more than 13 words) 57. What did the man do when his hair was being trimmed? (No more than 10 words) 58 How did the man feel after a free haircut? (No more than 5 words) 59. What does the underlined words in paragraph 6 probably mean? (No more than 9 words) 60. What do you think of Katie Steller? And why? (No more than 18 words) 【答案】56. Because she wanted to help the man sitting there get a haircut. 57. The man told his story. 58. He felt very good. 59. That means “pick oneself up”. 60. Katie Steller is kind and great. She does some kind acts to inspire others spread their own. 【解析】 【分析】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了凯蒂·斯泰勒在去上班的路上，下了高速公路后给陌生人免费理发，传递善行的事迹。 【56题详解】 考查细节理解。根据文章第一段“She stopped at a traffic light, where a man was sitting with a sign asking for help. Rolled down her window. (她在一个红绿灯前停了下来，那儿坐着一个拿着求救标志的男人。摇下车窗)”和第二段““Hey!” she shouted. “I'm driving around giving free haircuts. Do you want one right now?”(“嘿!”她喊道。“我开车到处免费理发。你现在想要一个吗？”)”可知，斯特勒在一个交通灯前停下来，因为她想帮助那个拿着求救标志的男人理发。故答案为Because she wanted to help the man sitting there get a haircut. 【57题详解】 考查细节理解。根据文章第三段“He told them about growing up in Mississippi, about moving to be closer to his adult children, and now he still talks to his mom every day. (他告诉他们自己在密西西比长大，为了离成年的孩子们更近一些而搬来，现在他仍然每天和妈妈说话)”可知，那个男人在修剪头发时讲了他的故事。故答案为The man told his story. 【58题详解】 考查细节理解。根据文章第三段“After Steller was done, the man looked in a mirror, “I look good!” he said. (斯特拉理完发后，男人看着镜子，“我看起来很好！”他说)”可知，免费理发后，男人感觉很好。故答案为He felt very good. 【59题详解】 考查词句猜测。根据划线部分所在句“Steller listens to people's stories of loss, addiction, and struggle to get back on their feet. (斯特勒听人们讲述失去、上瘾、挣扎着重新站起来的故事)”及常识可知，划线部分“get back on their feet”意为人们摆脱了消极情绪或行为的影响，重新振作起来。故答案为That means “pick oneself up”. 【60题详解】 开放题型。参考答案为Katie Steller is kind and great. She does some kind acts to inspire others spread their own. 六、写作(25分) 61. 假设你是来自晨光中学的李津，报纸上的一则招聘小学生英语夏令营志愿者的广告引起了你的兴趣，请你结合个人条件及优势，写一封英文自荐信。 要点：1.表示对该夏令营很感兴趣；2.介绍你的优势(年龄，性格，语言及类似的经历)；3.参加夏令营的目的(至少写出两点)。 注意：1.字数120字左右；2.可适当加细节，使行文连贯。 Dear Sir, ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Sincerely yours, Li Jin 【答案】Dear Sir, I’m Li Jin from Chenguang Middle School, and I came across your advertisement for volunteers for the English Summer Camp for primary school students in the newspaper.

I know that he was a kind and gentle man at heart, because when I was young, he gave me presents, and seated me on his knees, and told me stories, but I believe the boys at his school were afraid of him. At school, when he walked into a room full of noisy boys, there was silence at once. When he looked at a boy with a certain look in his eyes, that boy went red in the face, and looked down at his shoes. If a boy brought him poor, careless work, which was not the best that boy could do, my grandfather picked up the boy’s book and threw it across the room, shouting, “Do it all again, and bring it back early in the morning!” If the boy was late, or if he forgot to bring the work, he had to do it again and again, and yet again. My grandfather never forgot. He was a very different man at school from the man I saw day by day in his own home. 41. I know my grandfather was kind and gentle, because ______. A. he was the headmaster of a boys’ school B. he gave me presents and told me stories C. he told me stories about how kind he was D. he never scolded me 42.

Nor is electronic multitasking entirely new! We’ve been driving while listening to car radios since they became popular in the 1930s. But there is no doubt that multitasking has reached a kind of warp speed in the era of Web-enabled computers, when it has become routine to conduct several IM (即时通讯) conversations, watch TV and use the computer all at once. But what’s the impact of this media consumption? And how are these multitasking devices changing how kids learn, reason and communicate with one another? Social scientists and educators are just beginning to deal with these questions, but the researchers already have some strong opinions. Although multitasking kids may be better prepared in some ways for today’s fast-paced work placed, many scientists are positively alarmed by the trend. Kids that are instant messaging while doing homework, playing games online and watching TV, aren’t going to do well in the long run. On the positive side, multitasking students tend to be extraordinarily good at finding and using information. And probably because modern childhood centers around visual (视觉的) rather than print media, they are especially skilled at analyzing visual data and images. Many educators and psychologists say parents need to actively insure that their teenagers break free of uncontrollable engagement with screens and spend time in the physical company of human beings — a growing challenge not just because technology offers such a handy option but because many teenagers and college students say over-committed (任务过量的) schedules drives much of their multitasking. Just as important is for parents and educator to teach kids that it’s valuable, even essential, to occasionally slow down, unplugs and take time to enjoy life beyond the screen. 46.

Only parents can help their kids to get rid of the multitasking habits. D. Multitasking may prepare students for the reality of today’s fast-paced work environment. 50.

D The older we get, the more mature we are, and the more we learn, the more able we are to know what’s right. It seems to be right, but it’s not the case. Sometimes the aging process can obliterate the natural aspects that keep us curious and give us strength to figure out what to do. Children of all ages teach us lessons in our own lives. When a kid says “That wasn’t nice.” “I don’t like your shirt.” Or “I hate that kind of food!”, we should know it’s a natural reaction to forbid the child to do so. But what he says is true. Children will often see a wrong thing being done and interrupt to say it’s not right. As adults, we tend to sit on the sidelines and melt into the background rather than hold a strong opinion or say something that might be unpopular. Kids cry, stomp (跺脚) their feet or yell with excitement while it isn’t socially acceptable for an adult. Letting emotions out and then moving on objectively to deal with something can be great. So jump and yell when you are happy about something. Have a good cry when being upset. Stomp or throw a pillow when you’re alone and need to release. Most of life becomes a series of dull things once you reach a certain age. Finding pleasure and laughing seem out of place or silly when we gain knowledge or skills. And yet, the evidence on the power of laughter is very great and enjoying something can be the best way to learn it. “Why is the sky blue?” “How much does an elephant weigh?” There are certain things that the Internet can tell you. But what about learning something in the first hand like doing the science experiment in the kitchen and digging up rocks in the backyard? Don’t stop exploring. Be in the real word and find new learning. 51. What does the underlined word “obliterate” in Paragraph 1 mean? A. be beneficial to B. learn from C. do damage to D. provide for 52.

Having fun is the most important thing to kids. 54 What is the last paragraph intended to do? A. To remind us to protect the environment. B To ask us to live in the real world. C. To persuade us not to rely much on the Internet. D. To advise us to keep curious about things around us. 55. Which sentence of the following does the author probably agree with? A. Being adults is different from being children. B. Being adults doesn’t mean we are smarter. C. It’s not easy for children to grow into adults. D. It’s necessary to listen to what the children say. 五、阅读表达(10分)阅读短文，并按照题目要求用英语回答问题。 阅读短文，并按照题目要求用英语回答问题。 Last summer, Katie Steller pulled off' the freeway on her way to work. She stopped at a traffic light, where a man was sitting with a sign asking for help. Rolled down her window. “Hey!” she shouted. “I'm driving around giving free haircuts. Do you want one right now?” “Actually,” the man said, “I was really hoping to get a haircut.” “I'll be right back,” Steller said. She drove off, went to the salon she owns, and recruited one of her stylists to help her load a red chair into her car. Then the two of them drove back, and trimmed the man's curly graying hair. He told them about growing up in Mississippi, about moving to be closer to his adult children, and now he still talks to his mom every day. After Steller was done, the man looked in a mirror, “I look good!” he said. To date, Steller has given 30 or so such haircuts to people around the city. These people are all living on the margins, and she is keenly aware of the power of her cleanup job. “It's more than a haircut,” she says, “I want it to be a gateway, to show value and respect, but also to get to know people and build relationships.” Steller knows that a haircut can change a life. “Part of what broke my heart was just how lonely people looke,” she says. “I thought maybe I'd go around and ask if people want free haircuts. I can't fix their problems, but maybe I can help them feel less alone for a moment.” Steller listens to people's stories of loss, addiction, and struggle to get back on their feet. The attention apparently works. When she was cutting a woman's hair one day, someone drove by and yelled, “You look amazing!” The woman in the chair smiled. “I'm not invisible,” she exclaimed, “thought I was invisible. Look, people see me!” And it all began with a belief in simple acts of kindness, such as a free haircut. “The way you show up in the world matters,” says Steller. “You have no idea what people are going to do with the kindness that you give them.” 56.
