Read the following three posts from the website, if only.com, and answer the questions that follow.
CJ, 31, social worker
I wish I had given the plain-looking guys a second chance while I was at school. I always went for handsome, athletic types. So, where am I today? Married to a good-looking fool. A handsome man who has no heart, no sympathy(同情), and no love for anyone but himself. I sometimes visit my family back in my hometown and occasionally I run into old classmates --- the plain-looking guys. And what do I see now? Very intelligent, warm, funny men who are everything I want, but will never have in a husband.
Mia, 22, photographer
When I was at school I played in most of the school sports teams. I remember one year our football team had to win the last game to get into the finals. Three minutes of the game left and we needed to score. I got control of the ball and ran towards the goal. Our captain was right next to me shouting “go on, take a shot”. But I panicked and passed the ball to her. She shot and missed. If only I hadn’t passed the ball. I knew immediately that if I had taken the shot I would have scored. Ever since that game I’ve always taken every opportunity I could.
Ben, 52, mechanic
I wish I had listened to my parents more when I was a teenager. Thinking back, I find they gave me lots of good advice, but I ignored everything they said. I thought they were old and didn’t know anything. Now I have got two teenagers of my own and realize how right they were.
If I had listened to them, I might have made some better decisions in my life. I would have gone to university and probably waited a bit before I got married. I hope my daughters will listen to me more than I listened to my parents.

A.A missed opportunity B.Plain-looking guys
C.Classmates know best D.Beauty is only skin deep

A.was determined to go to university

C.School life. D.Original ideas

Volunteering to help people in need combined with traveling to faraway places is a new trend in the travel industry. It is called voluntourism. People travel to other countries, learn languages and other cultures, and gain new experiences. On the other side, they volunteer to help others who are not as well off as they are.
Recent statistics show that in the past few years voluntourism has been one of the fastest-growing areas of tourism. More than 1. 6 million people around the world are volunteers in other countries. They work in orphanages (孤儿院) , help build schools, assist in hospitals and do farming work in developing countries. Some of them develop lasting bonds with people far away.
There are many reasons why people want to take part in voluntourism. Students see it as a?period of time when they can take a break before going to university; others simply want to take time out from a job and do something else. Then there are those who are bored and merely seek adventure. However, many voluntourists do not see volunteering as what it is. They think it is a cheap way of traveling and don’t really want to get involved in hard work.
Not everyone sees voluntourism in a positive way. Critics say that if people really want to help those in need there are many opportunities in their own community to do this. On the other side, volunteers are often not skilled enough for the tasks they do.
Travel experts point out that in some cases voluntourists are taken advantage of by the organization that sets up the trips.
4. What is the first paragraph mainly about?
A. The origin of voluntourism.???????????????? B. The future of voluntourism.
C. The concept of voluntourism.?????????????????? D. The importance of voluntourism.
5. According to paragraph 3, which may inspire people to participate in voluntourism?
A. Making money.????? B. Avoiding adventure.
C. Applying for a scholarship.?????????????????? D. Seeking for a change.
6. which of the following is true?
A.Everyone isn’t in favor of voluntourism.
B.Voluntourists can give professional help.
C.All the voluntourists travel in order to escape hard work.
D.Voluntourism is a free way to seek adventure.
7. What might be talked about after the last paragraph?
A. Cases where people help others in their own community.
B. Tips on choosing voluntourism organizations and projects.
C. Reasons why not all people adopt a positive attitude to voluntourism.
D. Problems caused by volunteers who lack necessary skills for their tasks.

Good health is the most valuable thing a person can have, but one cannot take good health for granted. It is important to remember that the body needs proper care in order to be healthy. There are three things that a person can do to help stay in good shape: eat right food, get enough sleep, and exercise regularly.
Proper nutrition is important for good health. Your body cannot work well unless it receives the proper kind of “fuel”. Don't eat too much food with lots of sugar and fat. Eat plenty of foods high in protein (蛋白质) , like meat, fish, eggs and nuts. Vegetables and fruits are very important because they provide necessary vitamins and minerals. However, don't overeat. It is not helpful to be overweight.
Getting the proper amount of sleep is also important. If you don't get enough sleep, you feel tired and easily get angry. You have no energy. Over a long period of time a little amount of sleep may even result in a change of personality. Be sure to allow yourself from seven to nine hours of sleep each night. If you do, your body will feel strong and refreshed, and your mind will be sharp.
Finally, get plenty of exercise. Exercise firms the body, strengthens the muscles, and prevents you from gaining weight. It also improves your heart and lungs. If you follow a regular exercise program, you will probably increase your life-span (寿命).Any kind of exercise is good. Most sports are excellent for keeping the body in good shapes: basketball, swimming, bicycling, running and so on are good examples. Sports are not only good for your body, but they are enjoyable and interesting, too.
If everybody were to eat the right foods, get plenty of sleep and exercise regularly, the world would be a happier and healthier place. We would all live to be much older and wiser.
8.According to the passage,_________.
A.if we were healthy, we could spend our days in doing things with less sleep
B.one can eat a lot to stay in good shape
C.one needn't take any exercise if he is healthy
D.we should always keep fit
9.Eating more and sleeping less________.
A.can keep healthy B.is no good for you
C.gets you more energy D.will keep your personality
10.The writer explains ________in this passage.
A.how to eat B.the importance of doing exercise
C.how to keep healthy D.what to eat
11.The title of the article should be___________ .
A.Eating and Exercising B.How Vitamins Work in Man's Body
C.Staying Healthy D.Sleeping Well

D
Many people believe sharks (鲨鱼)are dangerous and will always try to hurt or even kill humans. In fact, 94 percent of the world’s 400 species are harmless to humans.
A shark exhibition at the National Aquarium (水族馆) in Baltimore, US proves this. Visitors can touch young sharks, see their eggs develop and watch a dozen different species(种类) swim smoothly around a huge tank.
Most people fail to realize that shark attacks don't happen very often. Humans are more likely to be killed by lightning than by a shark.
And to make this point clear, the museum has set up a special touching pool for children. There, kids can learn, from an early age, not to fear sharks. They can watch them develop inside the eggs and feel the skin of the older swimmers.
"People fear what they don't know," said Nancy Hotchkiss, an organizer of the exhibition, which runs till December. "Sharks have been round for 400 million years and play an important role in the ocean's food chain. We want people to discover that sharks are amazing animals that need our respect and protection."
A shocking 100 million sharks are killed every year by humans around the world. A study, published in January in the US magazine Science, found that almost all recorded sharks species have fallen by half in the past eight to fifteen years.
Thousands of sharks are hunted in Asia for special foods, such as shark fin (鱼翅) soup. And many others get caught in nets, while fishermen are hunting other fish. More than half of all sharks are smaller than one meter long."Some fishing methods are actually cleaning out the ocean," said Dave Schofield, the manager of the aquarium's ocean health program. "The fishermen threw them away like rubbish."
It is a worrying situation and some areas have put measures in place to protect these species of fish.
12. The main purpose of the shark exhibition is to _____?
A. show how sharks are born and develop in the ocean
B. let people know more about sharks and protect them
C. let children learn not to fear sharks from an early age
D. show how shark species have fallen in the past few years
13. In the last but one paragraph the underlined word "them" refers to ___。
A. small sharks B. fishing boats
C. fishing nets D. fishing methods
14. What does Dave Schofield mean by saying "Some fishing methods are actually cleaning out the ocean"?
A. Large sharks cannot be caught by some
B. Only small sharks can be caught by some fishing methods.
C. The ocean is being made cleaner by some fishing methods.
D. Too many sharks are being killed by some fishing methods.
15. We can infer from the passage that the writer is
A. surprised to know sharks always hurt people
B. happy to know sharks are harmless to people
C. worried about the present situation of shark species
D. pleased to know the ocean is becoming much cleaner
第二节 (共5小题,每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)
阅读下列短文,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
In different countries around the world, people become “adults” at different ages. Being an adult means having the right to do certain things such as getting a part-time job, voting, getting married, or getting a license to drive. 16
In many countries, sixteen or eighteen is the age at which a person becomes an adult. 17 They no longer have to rely on their parents for money all the time. In many parts of North America, sixteen is also the age when one can obtain a driver’s license; in England, it is seventeen. There are responsibilities that go along with both of these rights. 18 Driving a car demands that you follow certain rules and regulations such as getting and paying for insurance to drive.
Voting is another right that marks the passage into adulthood for many young people. In the United States, Canada and the UK, young people have the right to vote at the age of eighteen. 19 For young people to use their right to vote wisely, they must have an understanding of the needs of society, and they must also learn how politics works. 20 They think the people should be able to vote at the age of sixteen. They argue that if teenagers at sixteen are old enough to get part-time jobs, pay taxes, and drive, they are also enough to vote in elections.
Not everyone would agree that it is a good idea to give all of these rights---and the responsibilities that accompany them---to people when they are too young. The question is : How young is too young?
With this right also comes responsibility.
B. Getting a part-time job means that you have to pay income tax.
C. Adults should be allowed to enjoy the greatest amount of freedom.
D. It also means accepting the responsibilities that accompany these rights.
E. A group of teenagers in Canada want the Canadian voting laws to be changed.
F. People should be able to get a driver’s license at the age of sixteen or eighteen.
G. People at this age can get a part-time job and begin to receive an income of their own.

Jatin and his younger sister, Neha, lived with their parents in a poor neighborhood. Their mother was very sick and their father was struggling to find a job, and they had only a little money with which to buy food. As they had not paid the rent for several months, the landlord was breathing down their necks(盯着他们).
One day, Jatin took Neha’ s shoes to a shoe repairman to be fixed, but he lost them on the way home. It wasn’ t until he got home that he realized he had lost the shoes. He was afraid that his parents would be angry and disappointed, so he begged his sister to keep it secret. Neha agreed and the two decided to share Jatin’ s running shoes. Neha’ s school hours were in the morning, so she would wear them first. After school, she would rush back and give them to Jatin. He could then run to his school, which began in the afternoon. Although he ran as fast as he could, Jatin often arrived late and was warned by the school.
Along distance race was going to be held for the boys in the city. When Jatin learned that the third prize was a new pair of shoes, he decided to take part. He ran home excitedly and promised his sister that he would win her the new shoes.
The day of race arrived. Jatin had a strong start, but halfway through the race he began to get tired and his legs began to ache. Getting more and more exhausted he thought only of Neha and his promise to her. Dreaming of the new shoes he would win for his sister gave him strength, and he stayed right behind the two fastest runners, determined to finish third. Suddenly, as the finish line drew near, another runner collided(碰撞)with Jatin from behind and Jatin crashed to the ground.
Paragraph 1:
Jatin looked up and he saw the other boys rushing ahead.

Finally, he was the fourth one to dash across the finish line. Jatin?couldn’t help sobbing at the thought of letting his sister down. But much to his surprise, the?runner?who?collided?with him was disqualified for breaking the rule and Jatin won the third prize.

Filled with pleasure, Jatin walked home in no time.?He could not wait to see his sister and share the good news. On his arrival, Jatin found Neha was walking about outside nervously and anxiously. “Neha, see what I have got for you.” Jatin said excitedly, taking the prize out of his bag with his trembling hands. The instant Neha saw the shoes, her face lit up. So thrilled was she that she threw herself at Jatin. “Thank you! Jatin.” Tears of joy welled up in their eyes as the brother and the sister hugged tightly together.
