It was China’s second Olympic gold medal in tennis, following a women’s doubles title won by Li Ting and Sun Tiantian in Athens 2004, and the first in singles. After making history by becoming the first Asia-born player to win a gold medal in a tennis singles event at the Olympics, Zheng said, “In our hearts, the honor of our country is always more valuable than that of ourselves. I believe that every Chinese agrees with this. So when I was able to make history, I felt all the efforts were worth it at that moment.” “I have always believed that spirit needs to be passed down. If my victory today can encourage more children to dream of tennis, then all of the efforts are worthwhile. I also hope that you will stand on this top stage and experience what I am feeling at this moment.” Zheng regarded Li Na as an idol when she started learning tennis as a kid. Li Na is the only player from mainland China to win two Grand Slam (大满贯) singles titles—at the 2011 French Open and 2014 Australian Open. “I think Li Na will always be the greatest in Asia because she was the first Chinese female player to win a Grand Slam. And I am the first Asian player to win an Olympic gold medal, which is also a historical achievement, but I still have a long way to go,” said Zheng. 36. Where did Zheng Qinwen win the Olympic gold medal? A. Athens. B. Paris. C. Beijing. D. New York. 37. What can we learn from the first two paragraphs? A. China has never won a medal in tennis. B. Zheng won a women’s singles gold medal. C. Zheng won a women’s doubles gold medal. D. Vekic beat Zheng in the women’s tennis final. 38. Which of the following may Zheng agree with? A. Winning an Olympic gold medal means nothing. B. It isn’t worthwhile to pay efforts for the Olympics. C. It is meaningful to encourage young tennis players. D. Personal honor is more important than national honor. 39. Why does Zheng respect Li Na? A. Li was the first Asian player to win an Olympic gold. B. Li was the first Chinese woman to win a Grand Slam. C. Li won gold medal in tennis singles at the Paris Olympics. D. Li won the women’s doubles at the 2004 Athens Olympics. 40. What is the best title for the passage? A. Zheng Makes Tennis History for Asia B. Chinese Took a Greater Interest in Tennis C. Li Ting and Sun Tiantian Brought Honor Home D. Chinese Tennis Players Have Worked Hard for Long (C) There are 56 ethnic (民族的) groups in China. Different ethnic groups have their own special cultures. Let’s enjoy some of them. The Bai people use a very old way, tie-dry (扎染), to dye clothes. Tie-dye has a history of nearly 1500 years. During the Tang and Song dynasties, people chose tie-dyed clothes as gifts. The Mongolian people live in the Mongolian yurts (蒙古包). These yurts are large round tents and their tops look like umbrellas. They are the traditional homes of the Mongolian people. The yurts are usually white because they’re made of sheep’s wool. And white is a symbol of happiness. The Zhuang people like singing even more than talking. On the third day of the third Chinese lunar (阴历) month, they hold a big singing festival. It is thrilling and wonderful. Men and women singers sing in pairs. The winners are the “king” and “queen” of singing. The Miao people have a special festival, Manghao Festival. It’s in the first Chinese lunar month every year. The Miao people regard Manghao as a hero who helped to protect their homes. At the festival, young men dress up as Manghao and touch others to send good wishes. 41. Who uses tie-dye to dye clothes most? A. The Bai people. B. The Mongolian people. C. The Miao people D. The Zhuang people 42. What are the Mongolian yurts usually made of? A. Wool. B. Wood. C. Glass. D. Plastic. 43. What does the underlined word “thrilling” mean in Paragraph 4? A. Noisy. B. Exciting. C. Slow. D. Easy. 44. Which of the following shows the structure of the passage? A. B. C. D. 45. What can you infer from the passage? A. The Bai people may send each other tie-dyed clothes as gifts at their festivals. B. The Mongolian people invented the Mongolian yurts in recent years. C. The Zhuang people have a big singing competition every two years. D. The Miao people love singing and dancing at the Manghao Festival. (D) Many students have problems with vocabulary when preparing for tests. ___46___ You can build up your English vocabulary with these methods. Repeated encounters (偶遇) The usual way of “memorizing” new words is through repeating them while they’re still in your mind. However, simply repeating a word doesn’t seem to be useful. But the following way is helpful: repeated encounters. ___47___ So, read English magazines and newspapers from time to time. Spacing and review ___48___ You’d better memorize words day by day instead of doing it in a single day. That’s why new vocabulary introduced in one lesson is reviewed in the next, and then in later lessons. ___49___ Putting words to use in interesting ways helps add them to your long-term memory. In a study of vocabulary learning, students who made up their own sentences with new words and read them aloud memorized them better than those who learned the words separately and silently. Besides, you can imagine a picture when memorizing a new word. That can help a lot. Mix it up Let’s face it—learning words can be really boring, but it doesn’t have to be.___50___ Try watching videos from English-speaking countries and copying the way they speak. You can even upload (上传) your own videos and try becoming a star yourself. 阅读短文，把A—E五个句子填入文中空缺处，使短文内容完整。 A. Use it or lose it B. Here is some advice on how to memorize new words. C. It’s necessary to make a plan of your memory work over a period of time. D. Thanks to the Internet, there are more interesting ways to get the job done. E. Words can be memorized more easily if they’ve been met at least seven times in your reading. 第Ⅱ卷（非选择题，共50分） 第一节：语法填空（共10小题，每小题1.5分，共15分） 阅读下面的短文，在空白处填入一个恰当的单词或括号内所给单词的正确形式。 The folk art form, kuaiban, has a long history.

He was 86. Born in Shanghai on March 10, 1934, Fou had already started to show an interest in music at just four years old. Three years later he began studying piano with Mario Paci, a well-known Italian pianist. In 1948, Mr. Fou moved with his family to Yunnan because of the war. It was only after returning to Shanghai several years later that he began to devote himself to the piano. Mr. Fou made his first stage appearance in 1952 and the officials in Beijing noticed the concert; they chose him to compete and tour in Eastern Europe. Soon Mr. Fou moved to Poland, where he studied at the Warsaw Conservatory. To prepare for the fifth Chopin Competition in Warsaw in 1955, he practised so hard that he hurt his fingers and was nearly cut from the first round of competition. Finally, he took third place and won a special prize for his performance of Chopin’s mazurkas (马祖卡舞曲). Three years later, Mr. Fou left for London. After the deaths of his parents in 1966, Mr. Fou stayed abroad and became a well-known concert pianist in the world. In 1981, the book, Fu Lei’s Family Letters, written by Mr. Fou’s father, mainly to Mr. Fou, was published and soon became a best seller in China. “My father had a saying that ‘First you must be a person, then an artist, and then a musician, and only then can you be a pianist,’” Mr. Fou once recalled in an interview. “Even now, I believe in this order—that it should be this way and that I am this way.” As time went by, Mr. Fou still played the piano for a long time every day even when his fingers grew weak. It was a love that he mentioned in interviews, with pieces of wisdom from his father.
