II. Grammar and Vocabulary
Section A
Directions: After reading the passage below, fill in the blanks to make the passage coherent and grammatically correct. For the blanks with a given word, fill in each blank with the proper form of the given word; for the other blanks, use one word that best fits each blank.
The Spread of Disease
Traveling from one city to another can lead to the spread of disease. When people arrive in a new place, they may bring in bacteria that (21) ________ (not be) present in the past. The people there have no natural protection (22) ________ these new bacteria, so they catch the disease more easily. (23) ________ it is unfamiliar, health workers may not identify it or stop it from spreading. People with the disease may continue to have contact with others. In this way, the bacteria travel from person to person through the population. This was (24) ________ happened, for example, when soldiers travelled back home at the end of the First World War. These soldiers brought with them the Spanish flu, and (25) ________ cost millions of lives.
Heating and cooling systems in buildings can also be a source of disease. Take old air conditioners in windows as an example. They tend to collect dirt and water, which makes it easy for bacteria (26) ________ (grow). Then when the air-conditioner (27) ________ (turn) on, the bacteria will be blown into the home or office and make people sick. Bacteria grow fast in the water of the cooling towers. They are then sent throughout the building with the air conditioning and can affect anyone in the building. Scientists first recognized this problem in July 1976, by (28) ________ time 221 people had become seriously ill.
Pollution of the oceans can also be a factor in spreading disease. The pollution may be caused by fertilizers that wash into rivers and then into the ocean, or by human waste (29) ________ (dump) directly into the ocean with no processing. These pollutants result in the increased growth of tiny plants that are called algae (海藻). They can form a thick mass in the water, (30) ________ (provide) a perfect environment for cholera, a fatal disease.
Section B
Directions: Fill in each blank with a proper word chosen from the box. Each word can be used only once. Note that there is one word more than you need.
Future Fashion: Biometric Bodysuits
A team of the Applied NanoBioscience Center at Arizona State University has built prototypes (原型) of biometric bodysuits. They can detect chemical attacks, deliver drugs to their (31) ________, or even perfume scents if your body temperature rises too much. The (32)________ version of the Scentsory Chameleon Bodysuit incorporates fuel cells to provide a lightweight source of power for the soldier's equipment. The civilian one can monitor your heart or blood pressure, deliver interactive games or simply work as a wearable computer. You will even be able to download new colors and patterns from the Web to change your appearance according to this article from East Valley Tribune in Arizona. Both versions should (33) ________ the market within a few years.
Frederic Zenhausern, director of the Applied NanoBioscience Center at ASU, has joined with Ghassan Jabbour, a professor at the University of Arizona, to develop two prototypes of “biometric bodysuits” that contain embedded sensors, power sources, microfluidic devices and other gadgets not normally associated with the latest Paris fashions. Such “smart” clothing could (34) ________ future soldiers early warning of chemical attacks or automatically deliver insulin to diabetics, Zenhausemn said. “The biometric bodysuit shows how electronics and fluidics (流体学) can be incorporated into clothing to perform a wide range of (35) ________ tasks, from highly functional to the aesthetic.” he said.
The civilian Chameleon will have somewhat different (36) ________. Its biometric outfit demonstrates how miniature electronics could be embedded in clothing to promote health. It is made of clear vinyl (乙烯基) and white plastics to show the placement of various electronic and fluidic devices. In the future, such an outfit could diagnose diseases and deliver medications to the wearer, monitor heart rate or blood pressure, deliver interactive games and other forms of entertainment or (37) ________ as a wearable computer.
Another possibility would be to download different designs from the Internet so the fabric could change colors and patterns, Zenhausern said. And it could all be made to look stylish by the (38) ________ of electronics and high-fashion designs, he said. In fact, the concept of embedding microelectronics in fabrics has (39) ________ far beyond clothing. Sheila Kennedy, a Boston-based architect and visiting professor at the Harvard University Graduate School of Design, sees possibilities to (40) ________ the technology in building design. As an example, she said window shades containing organic light emitting diodes (二极管) could produce electricity from sunlight that would help generate power.
III. Reading Comprehension
Section A
Directions: For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A, B, C and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.
A filler word is an apparently meaningless word, phrase, or sound that marks a pause or hesitation in speech. Also known as a pause filler or hesitation form. Some of the common filler words in English are um, uh, er, ah, like, okay, right, and you know. Although filler words “may have fairly minimal lexical (词汇的) content,” notes linguist Barbara A. Fox, “they can play a strategic syntactic (句法的) role in a(n) (41) ________ conversation”. What appears to be a filler word may also be a holophrase (整句字) (42) ________ the context. “Hey, hey, shh, shh, e on. Be sensitive to the fact that other people are not comfortable talking about emotional (43) ________. Um, you know, I am, I'm fine with that, but...other people”.
Modern linguists led by Leonard Bloomfield in 1933 call these “hesitation forms”—the sounds of stammering (uh), stuttering (um, um), throat-clearing (ahem!), stalling (well, um, that is), interjected when the speaker is searching words or (44) ________ for the next thought. You know that “y’know” is among the most common of these (45) ________ forms. Its meaning is not the imperious “you understand” or even the old interrogatory “do you get it ”. It is given as, and taken to be, merely a filler phrase, (46) ________ to fill a beat in the flow of sound, not unlike like, in its new sense of, like, a filler word…
These staples of modern filler communication—I mean, y’know, like—can also be used as “tee-up words”. In old times, pointer phrases or tee-up words were “get this, would you believe and are you ready ”. The (47) ________ of these rib-nudging phrases was—are you ready—to make the point, to focus the listener's attention on what was to follow... If the (48) ________ is to tee up a point, we should accept “y' know” and its friends as a mildly (49) ________ spoken punctuation, the articulated colon (冒号) that signals “focus on this”… If the purpose is to grab a moment to think, we should allow ourselves to wonder: Why are filler phrases needed at all What (50) ________ the speaker to fill the moment of silence with any sound at all
Why do some people fill the air with non-words and sounds For some, it is a sign of nervousness; they fear silence and experience speaker (51) ________. Recent research at Columbia University suggests another reason. Columbia psychologists guessed that speakers fill pauses when (52) ________ for the next word. To investigate this (53) ________, they counted the use of filler words used by lecturers in biology, chemistry, and mathematics, where the subject matter uses scientific definitions that limit the variety of word choices (54) ________ to the speaker. They then compared the number of filler words used by teachers in English, art history, and philosophy, where the subject matter is less (55) ________ and more open to word choices.
41. A. undertaking B. discovering C. disliking D. unfolding
42. A. depending on B. holding up C. taking over D. arranging for
43. A. appliances B. substances C. disturbances D. finances

53. A. idea B. chance C. basis D. feedback
54. A. feasible B. credible C. considerable D. available
55. A. well-matched B. well-defined C. well-bred D. well-perceived
Section B
Directions: Read the following three passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, c and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.
(A)
Among all the different types of journey that people undertake there are also those of a spiritual nature. Some of the trips we do in our lives are purely for pleasure, some are meant to make us stronger, sometimes we travel to explore and learn, and in all of these undertakings we grow and become wiser.
There is a lot we can learn from the land that surrounds us and the best way to acquire that knowledge is by traveling and experiencing. This ancient aboriginal initiation ritual involves exactly this: a long spiritual hike across the native land. Although widely known as "Walkabout," in later years the ritual has been referred to as "temporary mobility," because the former is often used as an insulting term in Australian culture.
A young man on Walkabout
Historically speaking, the walkabout is a ceremony of passage in which young (adolescent) Aboriginal Australians undertake a journey that will help "transform" them into adults. The journey is usually made between the ages of 10 and 16. During this journey which can last for up to six months, the individual is required to live and survive all alone in the wilderness.
This is not an easy thing to do, especially not for teenagers. That is why only those who have proven themselves mentally and physically ready are allowed to proceed with the walkabout. Only the elders of the group decide whether it is time or not for the child to do it. The children are not completely unprepared for the journey. During the years before the walkabout, the elders instruct them and give them advice about the ceremony and adult life in general; they have been passed the "secrets" of the tribe, the knowledge about their world.
Aboriginal woman
Those who are initiated in the walkabout are also decorated with body paint and ornaments. Sometimes they are marked with a permanent symbol on their bodies. In some cases, a tooth is removed from the mouth, or the nose or ears of the initiated are pierced. Traditional walk about clothes include only a simple loin cloth and nothing more.
During a walkabout, a young person can sometimes travel a distance of over a 1, 000miles. In order to survive this long hike, the participant in the walkabout must be able to make their own shelter and must be capable of obtaining food and water for themselves.
That means he needs to hunt, catch fish, and also recognize and use edible and healing plants. The initiated youngster must learn to identify plants such as bush tomatoes, Illawarra plums, quandongs, lilly-pillies, Muntari berries, wattle seeds, Kakadu plums, and bunya nuts.
56. What can be referred from the first two paragraphs of the passage
A. Australians like to engage in all kinds of travel.
B. People can gain knowledge through travel.
C. Travel is usually purely for pleasure.
D. Walkabout is a long spiritual journey.
57. What do we know about the young Aboriginal Australians
A. All young Australians are required to live alone in the wilderness.
B. The difficulties they experienced in hiking turned them into adults.
C. Walkabout should only be done if they are mentally and physically prepared.
D. Walkabout is an unprepared test for the young Aboriginal Australians.
58. According to the passage, what skill does a person need to acquire in the walkabout
A. Identifying directions. B. Preserving physical strength.
C. Planting plants. D. Hunting and fishing.
59. Which of the following options is true about walkabout
A. Only people who have experienced torture are qualified to the walkabout.
B. Women must decorate themselves with body paint and ornaments.
C. To survive, the participants need to acquire certain survival skills.
D. Native women are not required to participate in the walkabout.
(B)
Running is a great form of exercise. However, running under certain conditions can cause a variety of injuries.
The National Running Association recently released the results of its latest survey on common running injuries, as illustrated in the picture above. According to the survey results, the most reported cases are related to knee injury and muscle pull, with the former occurring a little less frequently. About a quarter of the respondents say they have had plantar fasciitis (足底角膜炎), The number of respondents suffering from Achilles tendonitis (腱炎) or shin splints is nearly twice that of those with stress fracture (应力性骨折), which is also what fewest respondents report.
There are two main causes of running injury: structural imbalance and training volume. Structural imbalance occurs when a certain muscle group is weak and requires other muscle groups to help. The body adapts to stresses and becomes stronger. This is the basic principle of training. However, if you push too fast or run too far, you can stress the body in such a way that it never has time to fully recover. Training progression and moderation are the keys to avoiding overuse injury. Here are several ways to avoid running injury.
Prepare your body for running by walking.
Understand your body type and be patient.
Follow a sensible training plan or find a coach.
Wear the right shoes.
The cause of the injury is not easy to diagnose. For example, a foot problem can cause a problem in the knees or back. Finding and treating the cause of a running injury is the job of a trained doctor. More importantly, listen to your body and recognize the signs of over-training so that you can avoid running injury.
60. Which group of injuries best fits the blanks numbered ①, ②, ③ and ④ in the picture
A. ①knee injury; ②muscle pull; ③stress fracture; ④shin splints
B. ①muscle pull; ②knee injury; ③stress fracture; ④Achilles tendonitis.
C. ①knee injury; ②muscle pull; ③shin splints; ④stress fracture
D. ①muscle pull; ②knee injury; ③Achilles tendonitis; ④stress fracture
61. According to the passage, which of the following leads to structural imbalance
A. Using some muscles more intensely than others.
B. Training weak muscles more often than strong ones.
C. Adapting your body to stresses slowly.
D. Giving your body little time to recover.
62. According to the passage, if you want to find out why your back and knees hurt after running, you had better ________
A. turn to a coach for help B. consult a trained doctor
C. understand your body type first D. wear another pair of running shoes
(C)
Conservationists go to war over whether humans are the measure of nature's value. New Conservationists argue such trade-offs are necessary in this human-dominated era. And they support “re-wilding”, a concept originally proposed by Soule where people reduce economic growth and withdraw from landscapes, which then return to nature.
New Conservationists believe the withdrawal could happen together with economic growth. The California-based Breakthrough Institute believes in a future where most people live in cities and rely less on natural resources for economic growth.
They would get food from industrial agriculture, including genetically modified foods, desalination, intensified meat production and aquaculture, all of which have a smaller land footprint. And they would get their energy from renewables and natural gas.
Driving these profound shifts would be greater efficiency of production, where more products could be manufactured from fewer inputs. And some unsustainable commodities would be replaced in the market by other, greener ones—natural gas for coal, for instance, explained Michael Shellenberger, president of the Breakthrough Institute. Nature would, in essence, be decoupled from the economy.
And then he added a caution: “We are not suggesting decoupling as the pattern to save the world, or that it solves all the problems or eliminates all the trade-offs.”
Pessimists may say all this sounds too utopian, but Breakthrough maintains the world is already on this path toward decoupling. Nowhere is this more evident than in the United States, according to Iddo Wernick, a research scholar at the Rockefeller University, who has examined the nation's use of 100 main commodities.
Wernick and his colleagues looked at data carefully from the U.S. Geological Survey National Minerals Information Center, which keeps a record of commodities used from 1900 through the present day. They found that the use of 36 commodities (sand, ire ore, cotton, etc.) in the U.S. economy had peaked.
Another 53 commodities (nitrogen, timber, beef, etc.) are being used more efficiently per dollar value of gross domestic product than in the pre-1970s era. Their use would peak soon, Wernick said.
Only 11 commodities (industrial diamond, indium, chicken, etc.) are increasing in use (Greenwire, Nov. 6), and most of these are employed by industries in small quantities to improve systems processes. Chicken use is rising because people are eating less beef, a desirable development since poultry cultivation has a smaller environmental footprint.
The numbers show the United States has not intensified resource consumption since the 1970s even while increasing its GDP and population, said Jesse Ausubel of the Rockefeller University.
“It seems like the 20th-century expectation we had, we were always assuming the future involved greater consumption of resources,” Ausubel said. “But what we are seeing in the developed countries is, of course, peaks.”
63. What does the underlined word “trade-offs” refer to in the first paragraph
A. The balance between human development and natural ecology.
B. The profitability of import and export trade.
C. The consumption of natural resources by industrial development.
D. The difficult situation of economic growth.
64. Which of the following is true of the views of the new environmentalists
A. They believe that mankind should live in forests with rich vegetation.
B. They believe that mankind will need more natural resources in the future.
C. They believe that mankind is the master of the whole universe.
D. They believe that mankind should limit economic growth.
65. What can we infer from the last paragraph of the passage
A. Natural resources cannot support economic development.
B. More resource consumption will not occur in a certain period of time.
C. Excessive resource consumption will not affect the ecological environment.
D. All resource consumption in developed countries has reached a peak.
66. What is the passage mainly about
A. Urbanization and re-wildness.
B. Human existence and industrial development.
C. Socioeconomic development and resource consumption.
D. Commodity trading and raw material development.

Too Big, Too Expensive and Too Silly - Why Video Game Movies Fail
Film adaptations of video games have fallen on the unsuspecting viewing public like a Drop Bear. At first they look harmless enough, but they often leave viewers bruised and regretful.
These movies are plentiful. (67) ________ Yet despite big budgets and quality talent both in front of and behind the camera, most video game movies are commercial and critical failures.
(68) ________ The answer comes down to a complex mix of conflicting audience demands and commercial realities. Video game movies often assume that the audience wants, or is interested in, the game's legend and background. In fairness, this is out of fear that fans will Criticise legend changes, alienating a key demographic. But games reveal legend progressively over tens of hours of gameplay, whereas movies have a small portion of that time. This tension risks creating boring exposition and complex story lines. For example, Warcraft details the origins of conflict between humans and orcs (兽), the central conflict in the game’s world.（69）________
Additionally, excessive adherence to the source material extends to using silly plot devices without spending enough time establishing proper reasons for their existence. In games, these can work due to the "unspoken but commonly understood logic of ' this is a video game' ”. In a game, people accept inconsistent narrative devices because they facilitate interesting interaction and are the quickest route towards allowing gamers to, say, shoot hell-monsters on Mars.
The game series became increasingly complex , as the player-controlled protagonist (主角) parkoured his way through time periods like Renaissance Italy and Revolutionary America. The incredibility of the narrative world paled beside the fun of vaulting from rooftop to rooftop in15th-century Florence.
（70）________ The plot—an original story which retains the key elements of the games—was criticized as " scattered and fractured" , " hastily explained" and " disorienting". Vanity Fair pointed out that. It's not clear why any of this is happening" and summed it up as: Characters[talking] in quiet whispers about the complex methods they use to realize their poorly-hidden agendas.
IV. Summary Writing
Directions: Read the following passage. Summarize the main idea and the main point(s) of the passage in no more than 60 words. Use your own words as far as possible.
Ann Grand: A Visual Thinker
Ann Grand is a visual thinker. When somebody speaks to her, the words are instantly translated into pictures, like a video in her head. Unlike most people, her thoughts move from video-like images to generalizations and concepts. Furthermore, her memories usually appear in her imagination in order of time, and the images visualized are always specific. For example, if she thinks about a chimney, she sees detailed pictures, like the one in her old house and then those in her hometown. That one word can turn into a full-length video in her head. Grand's mind works like the Internet search engine which produces dozens of images of an object a user is searching for.
Visual thinking has enabled Grand to build entire systems in her imagination which works similarly to a computer program because it can produce three-dimensional design simulations (三维仿真设计). This was important to her as an equipment designer for the livestock industry. Before she started construction on her designs, she would test-run the equipment in her mind. She formed mental pictures of her designs in every possible situation, with different sizes and breeds of cattle and in different weather conditions. This process made it possible for her to correct mistakes before construction started.
Grande’s mind is also sensitive to details, which was important in her work with cattle. Her sharp awareness of the visual world led to noteworthy observations about animals. She noticed many little things that most people would not consider that scared the cattle. For example, a coat on a fence or a pipe on the floor would frighten them away. Grand's visualization abilities have also helped her understand the animals she worked with. This led her to create designs ranging from sweeping, curved fences intended to reduce the stress experienced by animals that were going to be killed to systems for handling sick cattle and pigs.

To whom it may concern,
I'm glad to hear that our school will hold an activity of “entering history”, because learning about history is a must for every young person in life. I prefer the activity method of making short videos. The reasons are as follows.
First, the short video is of great convenience that the other two methods do not have. It can be done with just a few electronic devices at your fingertips.
