B Bria Neff, age 12, of Sioux Falls, South Dakota, has been named a winner of the Gloria Barron Prize for Young Heroes. Each year, the Barron Prize celebrates 25 uplifting, socially concerned young people from across the U.S. and Canada who have made a huge positive difference to people and the environment. Bria founded “Faces of the Endangered” to protect endangered species through the sale of her artwork. She has sold over 250 paintings of endangered animals and given away more than $34, 000 to animal conservation (保护) groups. Bria has also published two educational coloring books; income helps support the zoo’s endangered species. She uses her website and Facebook page to present the challenges facing endangered animals, inspiring followers in 48 countries. Bria began her work as an 8-year-old, when she won an art competition hosted by the International Fund for Animal Welfare. She was shocked to learn there are over 3,000 endangered species and decided to combine her enthusiasm for painting with her love of animals to show species in danger of extinction. She carefully researches each animal before painting it. “I hope I can inspire kids like me to believe they can do great things,” says Bria. The Barron Prize was founded in 2001 by author T.A. Barron and was named after his mother, Gloria Barron. Each year’s 25 Barron Prize young heroes show the great diversity of America. They are female and male, and from various backgrounds. Many of them have focused on helping their communities and fellow beings; many others have focused on protecting the environment. “We need our heroes today more than ever. That is the purpose of the Gloria Barron Prize: to shine a spotlight (聚光灯) on these amazing young people so that their stories will inspire others,” says Barron. 4. Which of the following best describes Bria Neff? A. Inspiring and responsible. B. Honest and reliable. C. Brave and hard-working. D. Smart and patient. 5. What was the reason for Bria Neff ’s publishing two coloring books? A. To show her gift for painting. B. To help endangered animals. C. To honor extinct species. D. To make herself a hero. 6. What can be learned about the Barron Prize? A. It was intended for all Americans. B. It was named after a famous writer. C. It concentrates on the education for young kids. D. It encourages the young to make a difference to the world. 7. Where is this text most likely from? A. A research paper. B. A public speech. C. A news report. D. A history book. C Enjoy reading and appreciate life meaning. You must have always known reading is of importance and just think of the people who belong to book groups. They choose books to read and then meet to discuss them. Now, the website BookCrossing.com turns the page on the traditional idea of a book group. Members go on the site and register the books they own and would like to share. BookCrossing provides an identification number to stick inside the book. Then the person leaves it in a public place, hoping that the book will have all adventure, traveling far and wide with each new reader who finds it. Bruce Pederson, the managing director of BookCrossing, says, “The two things that change your life are the people you meet and books you read. BookCrossing combines both.” Members leave books on park benches and buses, in train stations and coffee shops. Whoever finds their book will go to the site and record where they found it. People who find a book can also leave a journal entry describing what they thought of it. E-mails are then sent to the BookCrossing to keep them updated about where their books have been found. Bruce Peterson says the idea is for people not to be selfish by keeping a book to gather dust on a shelf at home. BookCrossing is part of a trend among people who want to get back to the “real” and not the virtual (虚 拟). The site now has more than one million members in more than one hundred thirty-five countries. 8. Why does the author mention book groups in the first paragraph? A. To encourage readers to share their ideas. B. To stress the importance of reading. C. To attract more book groups. D. To introduce the website. 9. What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 2 refer to? A. An adventure. B. The book. C. A public place. D. The identification number. 10. What will a BookCrosser do with a book after reading it? A. Pass it on to another reader. B. Mail it back to its owner. C. Keep it safe in his bookcase. D. Meet other readers to discuss it. 11. What is the best title for the text? A. Online Reading — A Virtual Tour B. Electronic Books — A New Trend C. BookCrossing — A New Bridge D. A Website — An Old Tradition D The jack fruit is a delicious fruit found throughout certain parts of Asia. But there is more to the fruit than just its taste. When considering the fruit’s English name, it is easy to become overwhelmed with questions like: “Who is Jack? And why does he have his own fruit?” Surprisingly, “jack fruit” isn’t a person’s name at all. The fruit’s name originally comes from the southern Indian word chakka pazham, with India thought to be the fruit’s place of origin. Portuguese explorers who journeyed to this region went on to call it jack, which leads us to the current English name of jack fruit, according to National Public Radio(NPR). Unfortunately, no one called Jack has been proven to be involved at any point in this process. There is another food, however, that was directly named after a person—the sandwich. In the 18th century, playing card games late into the night became fashionable in British high society. John Montagu, the 4th Earl of Sandwich, started the habit of ordering pieces of cold beef between two pieces of bread in order to get a late-night snack without having to leave the gaming table or use a knife and fork. This newly-created snack kept hands clean so card players could continue on without dirtying their cards. The midnight snack quickly became popular among everyday people, and before long everyone was making their own sandwiches. That is how the sandwich was invented and got its name. Away from the world of food, there are more examples of names inspired by people. Long johns, the warm trousers that keep us warm in winter, are said to have been named after the US boxer John L. Sullivan who took to wearing a similar type of garment in the ring (比赛). There are many other interesting etymologies(词源) in the English language like these. So the next time you find an interesting name, why not explore its history too? 12. What does the underlined word “overwhelmed” in the first paragraph probably mean? A. Puzzled. B. Excited. C. Worried. D. Annoyed. 13. Where does the jack fruit’s name come from? A. A place in India. B. An Indian word. C. A Portuguese explorer. D. A discoverer of the fruit. 14. What do we know about the sandwich according to the text? A. It was named after a popular card game. B. It was once eaten as a snack in the daytime. C. It was first popular among the UK’s middle class. D. It was created for the convenience of playing cards. 15. What is the author’s purpose in writing this article? A. To raise readers’ interest in etymology. B. To introduce things named after people. C. To stress the importance of learning history. D. To explain the effects of people’s names on food. 二、阅读七选五（2.5*5=12.5分） How to improve your communication skills Whether you want to have better conversations in your social life or get your ideas across better at work, here are some essential tips for you.

You must have always known reading is of importance and just think of the people who belong to book groups. They choose books to read and then meet to discuss them. Now, the website BookCrossing.com turns the page on the traditional idea of a book group. Members go on the site and register the books they own and would like to share. BookCrossing provides an identification number to stick inside the book. Then the person leaves it in a public place, hoping that the book will have all adventure, traveling far and wide with each new reader who finds it. Bruce Pederson, the managing director of BookCrossing, says, “The two things that change your life are the people you meet and books you read. BookCrossing combines both.” Members leave books on park benches and buses, in train stations and coffee shops. Whoever finds their book will go to the site and record where they found it. People who find a book can also leave a journal entry describing what they thought of it. E-mails are then sent to the BookCrossing to keep them updated about where their books have been found. Bruce Peterson says the idea is for people not to be selfish by keeping a book to gather dust on a shelf at home. BookCrossing is part of a trend among people who want to get back to the “real” and not the virtual (虚 拟). The site now has more than one million members in more than one hundred thirty-five countries. 8. Why does the author mention book groups in the first paragraph? A. To encourage readers to share their ideas. B. To stress the importance of reading. C. To attract more book groups. D. To introduce the website. 9. What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 2 refer to? A. An adventure. B. The book. C. A public place. D. The identification number. 10. What will a BookCrosser do with a book after reading it? A. Pass it on to another reader. B. Mail it back to its owner. C. Keep it safe in his bookcase. D. Meet other readers to discuss it. 11. What is the best title for the text? A. Online Reading — A Virtual Tour B. Electronic Books — A New Trend C. BookCrossing — A New Bridge D. A Website — An Old Tradition 【答案】8. D 9. B 10. A 11. C 【解析】 【分析】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一个叫做BookCrossing的网站的功能和设置该网站的目的。 【8题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段的“You must have always known reading is of importance and just think of the people who belong to book groups. They choose books to read and then meet to discuss them. Now the website BookCrossing．com turns the page on the traditional idea of a book group.”可知，你肯定知道阅读是很重要的，考虑成为读书小组的人。他们选择书籍阅读，然后会面讨论。现在website BookCrossing.com为读书小组的想法翻开了新的篇章。由此可推断，作者在第一段提到读书小组是为了介绍图书漂流这个网站。故选D项。 【9题详解】 词句猜测题。根据it所在句“Then the person leaves it in a public place,... hoping that the book will have an adventure, traveling far and wide with each new reader who finds it”可知，然后这个人把书放在公共场所，希望这本书可以有一个奇旅，因为每一个发现它的阅读者可以走的更远更宽。由此可知，那些留下书的人希望自己的书能够随着找到它的人走得更远。其中的it指代前半句提到的同一事物“the book”。故选B项。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段的“Members leave books on park benches and buses，in train stations and coffee shops. Whoever finds their book will go to the site and record where they found it.”可知，成员可以把书留在公园长凳上，公交车上，火车站和咖啡厅。发现书的人就去网站登记他们在哪找到它的。由此可知，他们把书放在那些地方的目的，就是让其他人能够找到并且阅读。因此推断，拿到书的人最可能继续把书传递给另一个读者。故选A项。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。由文章的第三段的“Bruce Pederson, the managing director of BookCrossing, says, “The two things that change your life are the people you meet and books you read. BookCrossing combines both.””可知，Bruce Pederson，BookCrossing的董事总经理说：“改变你生活的两件事是你遇到的人和你读过的书。布克罗斯把两者结合起来。”由此可知，网站BookCrossing.com通过书把人们联系了起来，因此推断B项为最佳标题。故选C项。 D The jack fruit is a delicious fruit found throughout certain parts of Asia. But there is more to the fruit than just its taste. When considering the fruit’s English name, it is easy to become overwhelmed with questions like: “Who is Jack? And why does he have his own fruit?” Surprisingly, “jack fruit” isn’t a person’s name at all. The fruit’s name originally comes from the southern Indian word chakka pazham, with India thought to be the fruit’s place of origin. Portuguese explorers who journeyed to this region went on to call it jack, which leads us to the current English name of jack fruit, according to National Public Radio(NPR). Unfortunately, no one called Jack has been proven to be involved at any point in this process. There is another food, however, that was directly named after a person—the sandwich. In the 18th century, playing card games late into the night became fashionable in British high society. John Montagu, the 4th Earl of Sandwich, started the habit of ordering pieces of cold beef between two pieces of bread in order to get a late-night snack without having to leave the gaming table or use a knife and fork. This newly-created snack kept hands clean so card players could continue on without dirtying their cards. The midnight snack quickly became popular among everyday people, and before long everyone was making their own sandwiches. That is how the sandwich was invented and got its name. Away from the world of food, there are more examples of names inspired by people. Long johns, the warm trousers that keep us warm in winter, are said to have been named after the US boxer John L. Sullivan who took to wearing a similar type of garment in the ring (比赛). There are many other interesting etymologies(词源) in the English language like these. So the next time you find an interesting name, why not explore its history too? 12. What does the underlined word “overwhelmed” in the first paragraph probably mean? A. Puzzled. B. Excited. C. Worried. D. Annoyed. 13. Where does the jack fruit’s name come from? A. A place in India. B. An Indian word. C. A Portuguese explorer. D. A discoverer of the fruit. 14. What do we know about the sandwich according to the text? A. It was named after a popular card game. B. It was once eaten as a snack in the daytime. C. It was first popular among the UK’s middle class. D. It was created for the convenience of playing cards. 15. What is the author’s purpose in writing this article? A. To raise readers’ interest in etymology. B. To introduce things named after people. C. To stress the importance of learning history. D. To explain the effects of people’s names on food. 【答案】12. A 13. B 14. D 15. A 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了英语中一些单词的起源以及背后的故事。 【12题详解】 词句猜测题。根据划线词后文““Who is Jack? And why does he have his own fruit?””可知，人们对这种水果的名字存在疑问“杰克是谁？他为什么有自己的果子呢？”，即对名字感到困惑。故划线词意思是“困惑的”。故选A。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“The fruit’s name originally comes from the southern Indian word chakka pazham, with India thought to be the fruit’s place of origin.(这种水果的名字最初来自印度南部的单词chakka pazham，印度被认为是这种水果的原产地)”可知，杰克果的名字从一个印度词来的。故选B。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“In the 18th century, playing card games late into the night became fashionable in British high society. John Montagu, the 4th Earl of Sandwich, started the habit of ordering pieces of cold beef between two pieces of bread in order to get a late-night snack without having to leave the gaming table or use a knife and fork.(在18世纪，打牌玩到深夜在英国上流社会成为一种时尚。三明治伯爵四世John Montagu养成了把冷牛肉夹在两片面包之间点餐的习惯，这样就不用离开赌桌或使用刀叉就能吃到夜宵)”可知，三明治是为了方便打牌而发明的。故选D。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“There are many other interesting etymologies (词源) in the English language like these. So the next time you find an interesting name, why not explore its history too?(在英语中还有许多其他像这些有趣的词源。所以，下次当你发现一个有趣的名字时，为什么不去探索一下它的历史呢？)”可推知，作者写这篇文章的目的是提高读者对词源学的兴趣。故选A。 二、阅读七选五（2.5*5=12.5分） How to improve your communication skills Whether you want to have better conversations in your social life or get your ideas across better at work, here are some essential tips for you.
