“You can use me as a last resort（选择）, and if nobody else volunteers, then I will do it.” This was an actual reply from a parent after I put out a request for volunteers for my kids’ lacrosse（长曲棍球）club.
I guess that there’s probably some demanding work schedule, or social anxiety around stepping up to help for an unknown sport. She may just need a little persuading. So I try again and tug at the heart strings mention the single parent with four kids running the show and I talk about the dad coaching a team that his kids aren’t even on...At this point the unwilling parent speaks up, “Alright. Yes, I’ll do it.”
I’m secretly relieved because I know there’s real power in sharing volunteer responsibilities among many. The unwilling parent organizes the meal schedule, sends out emails, and collects money for end — of — season gifts. Somewhere along the way, the same parent ends up becoming an invaluable member of the team. The coach is able to focus on the kids while the other parents are relieved to be off the hook for another season. Handing out sliced oranges to bloodthirsty kids can be as exciting as watching your own kid score a goal.
Still, most of us volunteers breathe a sigh of relief when the season comes to a close. That relief is coupled with a deep understanding of why the same people keep coming back for more: Connecting to the community as you freely give your time, money, skills, or services provides a real joy. Volunteering just feels so good.
In that sense, I’m pretty sure volunteering is more of a selfish act than I’d freely like to admit. However, if others benefit in the process, and I get some reward too, does it really matter where my motivation lies
24. What can we infer about the parent from her reply in paragraph 1
A. She knows little about the club. B. She isn’t good at sports.
C. She just doesn’t want to volunteer. D. She’s unable to meet her schedule.
25. What does the underlined phrase “tug at the heartstrings” in paragraph 2 mean
A. Encourage team work B. Appeal to feelings
C. Promote good deeds D. Provide advice
26. What can we learn about the parent from paragraph 3
A. She gets interested in lacrosse. B. She is proud of her kids.
C. She’ ll work for another season. D. She becomes a good helper.
27. Why does the author like doing volunteer work
A. It gives her a sense of duty B. It makes her very happy.
C. It enables her to work hard D. it brings her material rewards
C
As online technology advanced, web sites, podcasts, and blogs became powerful sources of information that allowed everyone to stay updated on any subject imaginable. Although all of these information sources remain popular, there’s a new king of media and it’s online video.
There are many reasons why online video has increased suddenly over the past few years. The first is increasing data speeds. It wasn’t until recently that people everywhere had fast enough online connections to enjoy high-definition（高清）videos. However, once faster Internet speeds were provided, people quickly fell in love with online videos. The second reason why online videos have become so popular is convenience. Watching videos requires less effort and energy than reading through paragraphs of text after a day of hard work. videos also seem to provide more satisfaction, as people prefer to connect with people they can hear and see, as against the words of some author whom they know little about.
Advancing digital technology has also helped, as it has made sharing videos easier and more convenient than ever. High-powered smartphones and more affordable video cameras allow anyone to easily record an event or give a few comments about a scorching topic that is on their mind. Meanwhile, sites like YouTube, YouTube, and Ustream allow users to quickly upload their videos and share them with friends, family, and the general public if they wish.
Last but not least, panies have made it easy for people to get rewarded for creating popular videos. Some people with large enough fan bases can even make a very wealthy living by uploading a few videos every week.
The future also looks bright for companies who post online video ads. In fact, new software allows them to watch viewers’ emotional reactions to their content through the users’ webcams（网络摄像机）. They’ ll be able to see whether users laugh, cry, or feel bored during videos, so they can adjust their ads. This should prove extremely helpful, as there will be millions of videos competing for viewers’ attention.
28. Why do some people prefer watching videos to reading after work
A. It helps them review the news.
B. It helps them get information with relative ease.
C. It provides them more information.
D. It helps them save time.
29. What does the underlined word “scorching” in Paragraph 3 mean
A. Unusual. B. Future. C. Hot. D. Social.
30. How will the software mentioned in the last paragraph help companies in the future
A. It will enable them to better understand what customers enjoy.
B. It will let more viewers see the advertisements they make.
C. It will cause viewers to create more popular videos.
D. It will make people like their videos.
31. Which of the following can be the best title for the text
A. Online Video: The New King of Media
B. Online Technology is Developing Fast
C. Online Video: A New Advertising Trend
D. Online Technology is Closely Related to People
D
Despite earning more than $100,000 in household income, many people feel that they are living month to month and that a loss of employment or sudden medical emergency could easily move them from the upper middle class to low income earners. This feeling of being on the “edge” of poverty, despite these levels of income, seems a bit ridiculous but it really comes down to easy credit, misunderstanding of their incomes and peer group pressures.
Even in today’s tough economy, for those with six- figure incomes credit is easy to come by. Credit companies may have cut back offerings to those in lower income brackets due to the recent credit reforms, but there seems to be little or no effect on high income earners. Their being able to get credit without difficulty gives them a false sense of security that makes them spend way more than their incomes can afford. That’s why they accumulate credit card debt faster than average.
Many higher income earners feel like they are making lots of money now, and believe that they will continue to make big money. This may reduce their feeling that they need to watch their money carefully now. Hand in hand with that, many of them probably believe that they are making more money than they really are — or said another way, the money they make will go farther than it really does.
Meanwhile, many young professionals who are earning good incomes don’t come from particularly privileged backgrounds, and their reference point may be that they are making twice（or more）than their parents were — so they spend like that as well. They don’t take account of the effect of inflation, which means that the cost of living is much higher than that in their parents’ generation. Further, the more you earn, the more you pay in tax. Rather than focusing on after- tax incomes, many high income earners only look at the top line figures. A $100,000 income before tax is only about$ 70,000 after tax.
32. Who is the text centered on
A. The upper middle class. B. The lower income group.
C. People living in poverty. D. People getting into debt.
33. What causes some people to spend beyond their income according to the text
A. Lack of real budget. B. Easy availability of credit.
C. The good economic climate. D. Their privileged backgrounds.
34. What does the author intend to remind young professionals about in the end
A. They should focus on their top line figures.
B. They need to look ahead rather than look back.
C. They actually don’t earn as much as they think.
D. They should form good personal financial habits.
35. Which of the following might be discussed in the next paragraph
A. Effects of peer group pressures.
B. Ways to keep financial stability.
C. Harm of poor money management.
D. Tips on reducing the risk of poverty.
第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分）
阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Some people prefer to have a bite to eat before hitting the gym, known as a fed workout. Others would like to wait until after exercising to refuel their bodies, called a fasted workout. 36 Many experts say there’s no easy answer because it depends on the person.
If you want energy and strength for an ideal workout, you need fuel. A fed workout will provide your body with power. Eating before exercise may help you sustain longer sessions and lift heavier weights. 37 Muscle preservation is also an essential component of strengthening your body. Nitrogen（氮）is critical for processing protein that builds healthy muscles. People tend to lose less nitrogen during a fed workout than a fasted one.
Many fitness enthusiasts are not on board with this idea. They report feeling sick and inactive while trying to exercise after eating. With a fasted workout, you may not get the usual indigestion. Experts for fasted workouts further claim that eating afterwards makes your body use its fat reserves for energy, meaning you will burn more fat. 38 It can cause a sudden drop in your blood glucose（葡萄糖）levels, and you may feel dizzy. You may even be more likely to overeat.
39 Not all foods are created equal. For example, if you choose a fed workout, you’ll probably lose a lot of water during an intense training, so you should consider drinking some beforehand. With a fasted workout, it would help if you had some nutrition right after your session is complete. Drink some water. Then, have a light meal or nutritional snack.
Deciding when to eat for an ideal workout is a personal choice. Both fasted workouts and fed activities have their benefits and shortcomings. 40
A. However, a fasted workout might not work for you.
B. How your body will respond is based on your workout intensity.
C. These benefits can result in burning more fat and shaping a slimmer body.
D. To eat or not to eat, that is the question on many fitness enthusiasts’ minds.
E. Think thoroughly and discuss with your fitness instructor before taking a choice.
F. Knowing what to eat for an ideal workout is just as important as knowing when to eat.
G. A person doing a30- minute session a day may not have a problem with fasted workouts.

第二节（满分25分）
阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
I had a dream from primary school: to work in television. My parents owned a little grocery store, so we were definitely not fancy people. Thankfully, my dad had raised me to have a lot of confidence. He often said, “You can do anything you want to do.” My dad was particularly supportive. He was my steady rock — always there for me.
With his help and encouragement, I was admitted to the radio and television arts program at Ryerson in Toronto. I really loved the program and worked hard and I was named the most outstanding graduate. I felt like I was already living my dream. I began to think that maybe I could apply for an internship（实习资格）in CBC or CTV.
Luckily, Global Television had just started broadcasting in Canada that year. I thought to myself: I’m new and they’ re new, so if I’m going to get to know one person at Global, it might as well be the president. I was scared, but I knew deep down inside that this was what I wanted. When I called my dad and told him my plan, he said, “Good, Faye. That’s exactly what you should do.”
With my heart just about pounding out of my body, I called up the president of Global Television. Suddenly Mr.斜at was on the phone. “I’ve heard that your studio facilities are amazing. I could come at eleven o’ clock on Monday or eleven o’ clock on Sunday for a tour. What would suit you better ” I caught him totally off guard. He stuttered a bit, and then picked a day. When I hung up, I was scared but excited.
I arrived at the studio on the appointed day. When Mr. Slaight took me around, he looked at me and said, “What do you want ” He sounded furious but curious. “All I want is a chance to audition（试镜）. I just want you to know my face. That’s all I’m asking.”
I didn’t know whether I’d ever hear from him again, but two weeks later, his secretary called, “Mr. Slaight wants to know if you’d like to come and audition for a new school life show.” I immediately answered, “Sure”
注意：
（1）续写词数应为150个左右；
（2）请按如下格式在答题纸的相应位置作答。
When I arrived at the station, I went direct into the audition and began my short performance.
Finally came the day of my first public appearance on live TV with my parents at home watching.
