I had in my hand a sheet of paper with handwritten instructions on it for some sort of editorial task. It occurred at first that I did not recognize the handwriting, and then I realized whose it must be. I finally became aware of the fact that I had been working with this colleague for at least a year, maybe two, and yet I did not recognize her handwriting at that point. It was a very important event in the computerization of life—a sign that the informal, friendly communication of people working together in an office had changed from notes in pen to instant messages and emails. There was a time when our workdays were filled with little letters, and we recognized one another’s handwriting the way we knew voices or faces. As a child visiting my father’s office, I was pleased to recognize, in little notes on the desks of his staff, the same handwriting I would see at home in the notes he would leave on the fridge—except that those notes were signed “dad” instead of “RFW”. All this has been on my mind because of the talk about The Rise and Fall of Handwriting, a book by Florey. Sire shows in her book a deep concern about the fall of handwriting and the failure of schools to teach children to write well, but many others argue that people in a digital age can’t be expected to learn to hold a pen. I don’t buy it. I don’t want to see anyone cut off from the expressive, personal associations that a pen still promotes better than a digital keyboard does. For many a biographer, part of really getting to know their subjects is learning to read their handwriting. What some people advocate is teaching one of the many attractive handwritings based on the handwriting of 16th-century Italy. That may sound impossibly grand—as if they want kids to learn to draw by copying classical paintings. However，they have worked in many school systems. 41. Why was the author surprised at not recognizing his colleague’s handwriting? A. He had worked with his colleague long enough. B. His colleague’s handwriting was SO beautiful. C. His colleague’s handwriting was SO terrible. D. He still had a lot of Work to do. 42. People working together in an office used to ____________. A. talk more about handwriting B. take more notes on workdays C. know better one another's handwriting D. communicate better with one another 43. The author’s father wrote notes in pen _________.

B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇夹叙夹议的文章。作者通过一时辨认不出一位老同事的字迹及其回顾，对在电脑冲击下，书法受忽视感到惋惜，并认为中小学应当加强书法教学。 【41题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第二段最后一句“I finally became aware of the fact that I had been working with this colleague for at least a year, maybe two, and yet I did not recognize her handwriting at that point.（我终于意识到，我已经和这位同事共事了至少一年，也许两年，但那时我还不认识她的笔迹）”可知，作者感到惊讶的是他和同事共事的时间够长了却没有认出同事的笔记。故选A项。 【42题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第三段最后一句“There was a time when our workdays were filled with little letters, and we recognized one another's handwriting the way we knew voices or faces.（曾经有一段时间，我们每天的工作都充斥着信件，我们能认出彼此的笔迹，就像我们能认出别人的声音或面孔一样）”可知，在过去同事之间更加了解彼此的字迹。故选C项。 【43题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第四段“As a child visiting my father’s office, I was pleased to recognize, in little notes on the desks of his staff, the same handwriting I would see at home in the notes he would leave on the fridge—except that those notes were signed “dad” instead of “RFW”.（小时候，我去过父亲的办公室，我很高兴地在他员工桌子上的小纸条上认出了他的笔迹，和我在家里他留在冰箱上的纸条上看到的笔迹一样——只是这些纸条上的签名是“爸爸”，而不是“RFW”）”可知，作者的父亲会亲手写下便条给员工和家人。故选A项。 【44题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章倒数第二段第一句“I don’t want to see anyone cut off from the expressive, personal associations that a pen still promotes better than a digital keyboard does.（我不希望看到任何人被剥夺了富有表现力的个人联系，钢笔仍然比数字键盘更能促进这种联系）”可知，作者认为手写便条承载了更多的信息，更能促进人与人之间的联系。故选D项。 【45题详解】 推理判断题。根据根据文章倒数第二段第一句“I don’t want to see anyone cut off from the expressive, personal associations that a pen still promotes better than a digital keyboard does.（我不希望看到任何人被剥夺了富有表现力的个人联系，钢笔仍然比数字键盘更能促进这种联系）”和文章最后一段第一句和最后一句“What some people advocate is teaching one of the many attractive handwritings based on the handwriting of 16th-century Italy. However, they have worked in many school systems.（一些人主张教授16世纪意大利的手写体，这是许多引人注目的手写体之一。然而，他们在许多学校系统中发挥了作用）”结合全文可推知，作者不想丢掉手写体，觉得手写体有重要的意义。故选B项。 C For centuries, we’ve pursued happiness and meaning. But what does that leave out? As a social psychologist, I have dedicated my research career to a simple, but universal question: what makes for a good life, and how can we achieve it? For much of human history, we have been presented with two possibilities: pursuing a life of happiness, or a life of meaning. Each of these paths has its benefits, but decades of psychological research have also revealed their limits. Ask the Danes and Finns, who consistently rank among the happiest people in the world, what their secret is and they’ll tell you this: lower your expectations and be content with what you have. It sounds good, doesn’t it? But it leaves something out. It’s a bit like being a college student who only takes easy courses to be sure of getting good grades. Might there be more to life than simple pleasures and cozy comfort? Then there’s the meaningful life. We often imagine that meaning flows from trying to change the world like Steve Jobs. Once again, the research shows that lowering your sights and focusing on the little things can offer a more achievable sense of meaning. Often people find it in routines like taking care of family, or volunteering in the community. But there is also a dark side to the pursuit of meaning: researchers have found that it can encourage people to draw sharp lines between those who belong in their group and those who don’t. My research lab mapped out a third route to fulfillment: psychological richness. A psychologically rich life is one filled with diverse, unusual and interesting experiences that change your perspective; a life with twists and turns; a life that feels like a long, winding hike rather than many laps of the same racing circuit. Such experiences can make us tougher. Not only that, embracing the pursuit of psychological richness can make us less likely to regret: it matters less if the thing you did went wrong. Perhaps no one said it better than Eleanor Roosevelt: “The purpose of life, after all, is to live it, to taste experience to the utmost, to reach out eagerly and without fear .”(363) 46. What is the main purpose of the first paragraph? A. To introduce the author’s professional background and research focus B. To criticize traditional views on happiness C. To present statistical data on life satisfaction D. To compare Eastern and Western philosophies 47. What is revealed about pursuing happiness or meaning? A. Their benefits outweigh the limits. B. They are equally difficult to achieve. C. Both paths have limits despite their benefits. D. Most people prioritize happiness over meaning. 48. What does the example of “a college student” show in paragraph 3? A. Gratitude is essential for a happy life. B. We should live up to others’ expectations. C. Happiness requires academic achievement. D. Life means more than leisure and comfort. 49. What can be inferred from paragraph 4 about the pursuit of meaning? A. Its negative effect might weaken social unity in the long run. B. It is more achievable through grand ambitions than small actions. C. Volunteering is the most effective way to gain a sense of meaning. D. People who pursue meaning often neglect their family responsibilities. 50. What is the author’s main purpose in writing this article? A. To promote Roosevelt’s life philosophy. B. To introduce a new concept of life fulfillment. C. To criticize traditional psychological research. D. To compare different cultural views on happiness. 【答案】46. A 47. C 48. D 49. A 50. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇议论文。主要探讨“美好生活”的实现路径，在传统的幸福生活、有意义的生活之外，提出“心理富足的生活”这一全新理念并阐释其内涵。 【46题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段中的“As a social psychologist, I have dedicated my research career to a simple, but universal question: what makes for a good life, and how can we achieve it?(作为一名社会心理学家，我将我的研究生涯致力于一个简单但普遍的问题：什么构成了美好的生活，我们如何才能实现它？)”可知，第一段主要介绍了作者的职业背景和研究重点，即探索美好生活的构成及实现方式。故选A项。 【47题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Each of these paths has its benefits, but decades of psychological research have also revealed their limits.(这两条道路中的每一条都有其好处，但数十年的心理学研究也揭示了它们的局限性。)”可知，追求幸福或意义的道路，尽管各有好处，但都存在局限性。故选C项。 【48题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中的“It’s a bit like being a college student who only takes easy courses to be sure of getting good grades. Might there be more to life than simple pleasures and cozy comfort?(这有点像一个大学生只选容易的课程来确保取得好成绩。生活难道不应该比简单的快乐和舒适的安逸更有意义吗？)”可知，作者用“大学生只选易课”的例子，是为了引出后文的反问，说明生活的意义不止于休闲和舒适。故选D项。 【49题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段中的“But there is also a dark side to the pursuit of meaning: researchers have found that it can encourage people to draw sharp lines between those who belong in their group and those who don’t.(但追求意义也有其阴暗面：研究人员发现，它会鼓励人们在属于自己群体的人和不属于自己群体的人之间划清界限。)”可知，追求意义可能导致人们划分群体界限，长期来看可能削弱社会凝聚力。故选A项。 【50题详解】 推理判断题。根据第五段中的“My research lab mapped out a third route to fulfillment: psychological richness.(我的研究实验室规划了实现满足感的第三条路径：心理富足。)”及全文围绕传统的两种生活路径展开论述，最终提出“心理富足的生活”这一全新理念可知，作者写这篇文章的主要目的是介绍一种新的生活满足感理念。故选B项。 第四部分：写作（共三节，满分40分） 第Ⅱ卷（共40分） 第一节：阅读表达（每小题2分，满分10分） 阅读短文，按照题目要求用英语回答问题。 “Where are you going to college?” “I’m going to my local community college.” My answer seemed to be the magic phrase that would wipe the smile right off many people’s faces. It’s clear that people have a lot of misconceptions (误解) about community colleges. Many people think community colleges are only for people who couldn’t get into a four-year school. But it is not true. In high school, I always got A’s. But when it came to applying to colleges, I had no idea what I wanted to major in and couldn’t justify spending thousands of dollars at a 4-year school until I knew what I wanted to do. My parents were very supportive of my decision to attend the community college. Some people will ask, “Since the community college is cheaper, will you get a good education?” I found that nearly all of my professors taught the same courses at 4-year colleges. My professors were knowledgeable and experienced, and I found many of the courses challenging. Some people think if I attend the community college, I will miss out on the “college experience”. I must admit that this is something I worried about a great deal the summer before college. But I soon learned that the community college, just like any other college, is what you make of it. I strived to make the most of my time at the community college. I also made tons of friends by joining clubs and attending student government meetings. I took a lot of different courses. I had an amazing professor who suggested I take her journalism class. Never having written for my high school newspapers, I dared not take it, but since she was so enthusiastic, I eventually decided to have a try. That one course was all it took for me to realize that I wanted to become a journalist. I look forward to graduating this May to pursue a career in broadcast journalism. Community colleges may not be for everyone, but for me it is a life-changing experience that has helped me discover who I am and the person I hope to become. 51. What was the author’s parents’ attitude towards his/her decision about attending the community college? (no more than 5 words) 52. What does the underlined part “miss out on” in Paragraph 4 mean? (1 word) 53. How did the author make friends at community college? (no more than 12 words) 54. Why daren’t the author take the journalism class at first? (no more than 12 words) 55. In your opinion, what kind of effect does attending the community college have on the author? (no more than 15 words) 【答案】51. They supported his/her decision. 52. Lack. 53. By joining clubs and attending student government meetings. 54. Because the author never wrote for his or her high school newspaper. 55. Attending the community college helps the author discover who he/she is and will become. 【解析】 【分析】本文是一篇记叙文，人们对社区大学有很多误解，作者用自己上社区大学的切身经历告诉我们社区大学和其他大学没什么不同。 【51题详解】 根据第二段中的“My parents were very supportive of my decision to attend the community college.”可知，作者的父母非常支持他（她）上社区大学的决定，故填They supported his/her decision。 【52题详解】 上文说人们对社区大学有很多误解，在根据画线词后的“But I soon learned that the community college, just like any other college, is what you make of it. I strived to make the most of my time at the community college.”可知，但很快作者就发现社区大学和其他大学一样，作者努力充分利用在社区大学的时间，由此可知，此处是说有些人认为如果上社区大学，就会缺少大学的经历，故画线词词义为“缺少”，故填Lack。 【53题详解】 根据第四段中的“I also made tons of friends by joining clubs and attending student government meetings.”可知，作者通过参加社团和学生会会议交了很多朋友，故填By joining clubs and attending student government meetings。 【54题详解】 根据最后一段中的“Never having written for my high school newspapers, I dared not take it,”可知，作者一开始害怕上新闻学课是因为他（她）高中时从未给校报写过文章，故填Because the author never wrote for his or her high school newspaper。 【55题详解】 第四段说作者充分利用社区大学的时间并结交了很多朋友，再根据最后一段中的“That one course was all it took for me to realize that I wanted to become a journalist.”可知，新闻学课让作者认识到他（她）想当一名记者，也就是说上社区大学让作者认识到自己是谁以及以后想要成为谁，故填Attending the community college helps the author discover who he/she is and will become。 第二节：单词拼写（每小题1分，共10分） 阅读下面各句，并根据提示用词汇的适当形式填空。 56.

Moreover, it is a better choice for us to provide food and water in safe areas and volunteering at rescue centers for unadoptable animals.

Let’s unite in the upcoming “Care for Strays” activity to build a warmer, kinder community for all living beings.

I had in my hand a sheet of paper with handwritten instructions on it for some sort of editorial task. It occurred at first that I did not recognize the handwriting, and then I realized whose it must be. I finally became aware of the fact that I had been working with this colleague for at least a year, maybe two, and yet I did not recognize her handwriting at that point. It was a very important event in the computerization of life—a sign that the informal, friendly communication of people working together in an office had changed from notes in pen to instant messages and emails. There was a time when our workdays were filled with little letters, and we recognized one another’s handwriting the way we knew voices or faces. As a child visiting my father’s office, I was pleased to recognize, in little notes on the desks of his staff, the same handwriting I would see at home in the notes he would leave on the fridge—except that those notes were signed “dad” instead of “RFW”. All this has been on my mind because of the talk about The Rise and Fall of Handwriting, a book by Florey. Sire shows in her book a deep concern about the fall of handwriting and the failure of schools to teach children to write well, but many others argue that people in a digital age can’t be expected to learn to hold a pen. I don’t buy it. I don’t want to see anyone cut off from the expressive, personal associations that a pen still promotes better than a digital keyboard does. For many a biographer, part of really getting to know their subjects is learning to read their handwriting. What some people advocate is teaching one of the many attractive handwritings based on the handwriting of 16th-century Italy. That may sound impossibly grand—as if they want kids to learn to draw by copying classical paintings. However，they have worked in many school systems. 41. Why was the author surprised at not recognizing his colleague’s handwriting? A. He had worked with his colleague long enough. B. His colleague’s handwriting was SO beautiful. C. His colleague’s handwriting was SO terrible. D. He still had a lot of Work to do. 42. People working together in an office used to ____________. A. talk more about handwriting B. take more notes on workdays C. know better one another's handwriting D. communicate better with one another 43. The author’s father wrote notes in pen _________. A. to both his family and his staff B. to his family in small letters C. to his family on the fridge D. to his staff on the desk 44. According to the author, handwritten notes _______. A. are harder to teach in schools B. attract more attention C. are used only between friends D. carry more message 45. We can learn from the passage that the author __________. A. thinks it impossible to teach handwriting B. does not want to lose handwriting C. puts the blame on the computer D. does not agree with Florey C For centuries, we’ve pursued happiness and meaning. But what does that leave out? As a social psychologist, I have dedicated my research career to a simple, but universal question: what makes for a good life, and how can we achieve it? For much of human history, we have been presented with two possibilities: pursuing a life of happiness, or a life of meaning. Each of these paths has its benefits, but decades of psychological research have also revealed their limits. Ask the Danes and Finns, who consistently rank among the happiest people in the world, what their secret is and they’ll tell you this: lower your expectations and be content with what you have. It sounds good, doesn’t it? But it leaves something out. It’s a bit like being a college student who only takes easy courses to be sure of getting good grades. Might there be more to life than simple pleasures and cozy comfort? Then there’s the meaningful life. We often imagine that meaning flows from trying to change the world like Steve Jobs. Once again, the research shows that lowering your sights and focusing on the little things can offer a more achievable sense of meaning. Often people find it in routines like taking care of family, or volunteering in the community. But there is also a dark side to the pursuit of meaning: researchers have found that it can encourage people to draw sharp lines between those who belong in their group and those who don’t. My research lab mapped out a third route to fulfillment: psychological richness. A psychologically rich life is one filled with diverse, unusual and interesting experiences that change your perspective; a life with twists and turns; a life that feels like a long, winding hike rather than many laps of the same racing circuit. Such experiences can make us tougher. Not only that, embracing the pursuit of psychological richness can make us less likely to regret: it matters less if the thing you did went wrong. Perhaps no one said it better than Eleanor Roosevelt: “The purpose of life, after all, is to live it, to taste experience to the utmost, to reach out eagerly and without fear .”(363) 46. What is the main purpose of the first paragraph? A. To introduce the author’s professional background and research focus B. To criticize traditional views on happiness C. To present statistical data on life satisfaction D. To compare Eastern and Western philosophies 47. What is revealed about pursuing happiness or meaning? A. Their benefits outweigh the limits. B. They are equally difficult to achieve. C. Both paths have limits despite their benefits. D. Most people prioritize happiness over meaning. 48. What does the example of “a college student” show in paragraph 3? A. Gratitude is essential for a happy life. B. We should live up to others’ expectations. C. Happiness requires academic achievement. D. Life means more than leisure and comfort. 49. What can be inferred from paragraph 4 about the pursuit of meaning? A. Its negative effect might weaken social unity in the long run. B. It is more achievable through grand ambitions than small actions. C. Volunteering is the most effective way to gain a sense of meaning. D. People who pursue meaning often neglect their family responsibilities. 50. What is the author’s main purpose in writing this article? A. To promote Roosevelt’s life philosophy. B. To introduce a new concept of life fulfillment. C. To criticize traditional psychological research. D. To compare different cultural views on happiness. 第四部分：写作（共三节，满分40分） 第Ⅱ卷（共40分） 第一节：阅读表达（每小题2分，满分10分） 阅读短文，按照题目要求用英语回答问题。 “Where are you going to college?” “I’m going to my local community college.” My answer seemed to be the magic phrase that would wipe the smile right off many people’s faces. It’s clear that people have a lot of misconceptions (误解) about community colleges. Many people think community colleges are only for people who couldn’t get into a four-year school. But it is not true. In high school, I always got A’s. But when it came to applying to colleges, I had no idea what I wanted to major in and couldn’t justify spending thousands of dollars at a 4-year school until I knew what I wanted to do. My parents were very supportive of my decision to attend the community college. Some people will ask, “Since the community college is cheaper, will you get a good education?” I found that nearly all of my professors taught the same courses at 4-year colleges. My professors were knowledgeable and experienced, and I found many of the courses challenging. Some people think if I attend the community college, I will miss out on the “college experience”. I must admit that this is something I worried about a great deal the summer before college. But I soon learned that the community college, just like any other college, is what you make of it. I strived to make the most of my time at the community college. I also made tons of friends by joining clubs and attending student government meetings. I took a lot of different courses. I had an amazing professor who suggested I take her journalism class. Never having written for my high school newspapers, I dared not take it, but since she was so enthusiastic, I eventually decided to have a try. That one course was all it took for me to realize that I wanted to become a journalist. I look forward to graduating this May to pursue a career in broadcast journalism. Community colleges may not be for everyone, but for me it is a life-changing experience that has helped me discover who I am and the person I hope to become. 51.
