1. —Lucy, I’ll pick you up at 6:00 this afternoon at the school gate.
—Sorry, ________. There’s too much noise here. Would you repeat it again
A. It’s totally fascinating B. I didn’t get that
C. I’m not sure D. I’m afraid not
【答案】B
【解析】
【详解】考查情景交际。句意：——露西，我今天下午6点在学校门口接你。——对不起，我没听清。这里太吵了。你能再重复一遍吗？A. It’s totally fascinating 这真有趣；B. I didn’t get that 我没有听清楚；C. I’m not sure我不敢肯定；D. I’m afraid not 恐怕不是。由There’s too much noise here. Would you repeat it again 可知，噪音太大了，露西要求对方再重复一遍所说的话，因此推理出露西没有听清对方刚才说的话，I didn’t get that（我没有听清楚）符合题意。故选B项。
【点睛】情景对话题主要考查英语的日常用语、习惯用语以及各种场合的交际性语言，并从实际出发，考查交际语言的运用能力。做题时仔细阅读上下文，找出上下文之间的联系。此题中下文的There’s too much noise here. Would you repeat it again 这里噪音太大，请再说一遍，说明她没听清对方说什么，故选B。
2. ________more and more forests in Australia damaged, some animals and plants are facing the danger of dying out.
A. As B. For C. With D. By
【答案】C
【解析】
【详解】考查with的复合结构。句意：随着越来越多的澳大利亚森林遭到破坏，一些动植物正面临灭绝的危险。A. As作为；B. For 因为；C. With和；D. By通过。结合句意和句子结构可知，此处考查with的复合结构，即with + n. + 过去分词，其中过去分词是名词的补语。故选C项。
【点睛】with的复合结构通常有6种形式，即with + n. + adj./ adv./ prep短语/ doing/ to do/ done。该结构在句中作状语，adj./ adv./ prep短语/ doing/ to do/ done是宾语补足语。
例如：
With a girl leading us, we finally found the village.在一个女孩的带领下，我们最终找到了这个村子。
With all the work finished, I can go out.因为所有工作都做完了，我可以出去。
With a big family to support, he has to work around the clock.因为有一大家人要养活，他不得不夜以继日地工作。

【解析】
【详解】考查非谓语动词和省略。句意：这一发现帮助研究人员得出结论，当这两种药物同时服用时，可能会导致心脏病。分析句子结构可知，空处省略主语the two drags，此处表示药被服用，所以空处需用一般现在时的被动语态：are taken，此处when引导的时间状语从句，主语与宾语从句主句一致，且含有be动词，所以此处be动词和主语被省略，所以可能从需用过去分词taken，故选A。
15. Between the two halves of the football game is a 15-minute break, __________ the audience can have a rest．

Kazumi
My main reason for coming here was the Human Rights course. When I was at school I couldn’t decide whether I wanted to be a doctor or a lawyer, but having decided to be a lawyer, I then had to choose which first degree I should take before starting law school in another city. I’ve always wanted to help people and I figured that taking Human Rights would allow me to learn about how I can make a real difference in the world.
Vladimir
I love maths. I was torn between two possibilities: I could become an engineer and apply maths at a practical level. Or I could become a maths teacher. I needn’t have worried because in the end I didn’t have to choose! I got everything I wanted thanks to my university, which will qualify me to be a high school teacher while gaining a general engineering degree at the same time.
Osvaldo
One of the reasons I chose this university was because of the effort that they put into organising the open day. The lecturers and current students provide an enthusiastic overview (概述) of their courses and of life in the city. This was in contrast to other universities I visited, which just let their reputation do the talking. Although I chose not to live on campus (校园), the rooms there seemed comfortable and very reasonably priced.
Maria
When the time came to select the university, I had three possibilities, but I still could not decide. So it was time to schedule campus tours. They all had their advantages, but this place instantly appealed to me. As soon as I arrived, I was struck by the smiles everyone gave me. What I value most here is the feeling that I am part of a supportive community.
36. What job has Kazumi made up her mind to do
A. A doctor. B. A lawyer.
C. A maths teacher. D. A lecturer on Human Rights.
37. Who can obtain a double qualification from his or her university
A. Kazumi. B. Vladimir. C. Osvaldo. D. Maria.
38. Why did Osvaldo, choose his university
A. He found the courses affordable.
B. His university sold itself more convincingly.
C. He was won over by the university’s reputation.
D. His university offered excellent accommodation.
39. What do we know about Maria
A. She takes great interest in community service.
B. She made her choice from the very beginning.
C. She feels a sense of belonging at her university.
D. She was hoping to pass on knowledge to others.
40. What’s the best title for this passage

B
Like many new graduates, I left university full of hope for the future but with no real idea of what I wanted to do. My degree, with honors, in English literature had not really prepared me for anything practical. I knew I wanted to make a difference in the world somehow, but I had no idea how to do that. That’s when I learned about the Lighthouse Project.
I started my journey as a Lighthouse Project volunteer by reading as much as I could about the experiences of previous volunteers. I knew it would be a lot of hard work, and that I would be away from my family and friends for a very long time. In short, I did not take my decision to apply for the Lighthouse Project lightly. Neither did my family.
Eventually, however, I won the support of my family, and I sent in all the paperwork needed for the application. After countless interviews and presentations, I managed to stand out among the candidates and survive the test alone. Several months later, I finally received a call asking me to report for the duty. I would be going to a small village near Abuja, Nigeria. Where What Nigeria I had no idea. But I was about to find out.
After completing my training, I was sent to the village that was small and desperately in need of proper accommodation. Though the local villagers were poor, they offered their homes, hearts, and food as if I were their own family. I was asked to lead a small team of local people in building a new schoolhouse. For the next year or so, I taught in that same schoolhouse. But I sometimes think I learned more from my students than they did from me.
Sometime during that period, I realized that all those things that had seemed so strange or unusual to me no longer did, though I did not get anywhere with the local language, and returned to the United States a different man. The Lighthouse Project had changed my life forever.

C
If you’re a runner who secretly hates running, here’s some good news: settling into a leisurely jog rather than an all-out run may actually be better for your health in the long term.
A team from Denmark followed over 5, 000 people taking part in the Copenhagen City Heart Study, and tracked whether they were non-joggers, or joggers who kept a slow, moderate (中等的), or fast pace. The participants’ health was tracked over the next 12 years, and so was their mortality (死亡率): 28 of the joggers and 128 of the non-joggers died.
The connection was this: Joggers of mild and moderate intensity had a lower risk of death than the fast joggers. In fact, the lowest mortality risk was that of the mild intensity joggers. The fast-paced joggers had about the same mortality rate as sedentary (久坐的) people. This suggests that there may be an upper limit to hard exercise, after which the benefits fall off.
“The U-shaped association between jogging and mortality suggests there may be an upper limit for exercise amount that is best for health benefits,” said study author Peter Schnohr. “Anything more is not just unnecessary; it may be harmful.” From the current study, jogging just three times per week, for less than 2.5 hours per week was associated with the lowest overall mortality risk.
There have been a lot of mixed messages about the “right” amount of exercise and what intensity is best. The World Health Organization has suggested that the current 150 minutes per week recommendations are strenuous for most people to tackle, and that expectations should be lowered, since, after all, anything is better than nothing. Everyone probably has a level of activity that feels best to him or her. But at least the growing consensus seems to be that more — if you’re pushing yourself very hard— is not necessarily better. And it may even be worse.
46. What was the study designed to find out
A. The relation between exercise amount and health.
B. The difference between non-joggers and joggers.
C. The advantages of jogging over running.
D. The common causes of death from exercise.
47 Who will face the highest mortality risk according to the study
A. Those jogging just three times per week. B. Those jogging 150 minutes per week.
C. Those fast-paced joggers. D. Those slow-paced joggers.
48. What might Peter Schnohr agree with
A. The early bird catches the worm. B. Wealth is nothing without health.
C To go beyond is as wrong as to fall short. D. Enough exercise brings about happiness.
49. What does the underlined word “strenuous” in the last paragraph mean
A. Intense. B. Wide-ranging.
C. Necessary. D. Far-reaching.
50. What would be the best title for the text
A. Why Jogging May Be Better For Your Health Than Running
B. Can Jogging Increase Your Weight
C. How Does Jogging Affect Your Health
D. How Often Should Beginners Run
【答案】46. A 47. C 48. C 49. A 50. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章讲述了一个关于慢跑者和不慢跑者，以及慢跑时的运动量大小不同的试验，研究表明，适量的慢跑才是对身体最好的。
【46题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段“A team from Denmark followed over 5, 000 people taking part in the Copenhagen City Heart Study, and tracked whether they were non-joggers, or joggers who kept a slow, moderate (中等的), or fast pace. (来自丹麦的一个研究小组跟踪了5000多名参加哥本哈根城市心脏研究的人，并跟踪了他们是不慢跑的人，还是保持慢速、中速或快速的慢跑者。)”，第三段中“The connection was this: Joggers of mild and moderate intensity had a lower risk of death than the fast joggers. (这种联系是这样的：轻度和中度强度的慢跑者比快速慢跑者的死亡风险更低。)”可知，这项研究的研究对象是慢跑者和不慢跑者，旨在发现运动量与健康的关系，故选A项。
【47题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中“Joggers of mild and moderate intensity had a lower risk of death than the fast joggers. (轻度和中度强度慢跑者的死亡风险低于快速慢跑者。)”可知，面临最高的死亡风险的是快节奏的慢跑者，故选C项。
【48题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段中“‘The U-shaped association between jogging and mortality suggests there may be an upper limit for exercise amount that is best for health benefits,’ said study author Peter Schnohr. ‘Anything more is not just unnecessary; it may be harmful.’ From the current study, jogging just three times per week, for less than 2.5 hours per week was associated with the lowest overall mortality risk. (研究作者彼得·施诺尔说：‘慢跑和死亡率之间的u型关系表明，对健康有益的锻炼量可能有一个上限。更多的东西不仅是不必要的；这可能是有害的。’从目前的研究来看，每周慢跑三次，每周不到2.5小时，与最低的整体死亡风险相关。)”可知，根据慢跑和死亡率之间的u型关系，Peter Schnohr认为超量的运动和运动不足都不对，故选C项。
【49题详解】
词句猜测题。根据最后一段中“The World Health Organization has suggested that the current 150 minutes per week recommendations are strenuous for most people to tackle, and that expectations should be lowered, since, after all, anything is better than nothing. (世界卫生组织表示，目前建议的每周150分钟的锻炼时间对大多数人来说，应付起来是strenuous，应该降低期望值，因为毕竟有总比没有好。)”，根据后句中的“应该降低期望值”可知，每周150分钟的锻炼时间对于大多数人来说不好实现，有点“紧张的；费力的”。A. Intense强烈的；B. Wide-ranging广泛的；C. Necessary必要的；C. Far-reaching影响深远的。划线词strenuous与Intense意思相近，故选A项。
【50题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是第一段“If you’re a runner who secretly hates running, here’s some good news: settling into a leisurely jog rather than an all-out run may actually be better for your health in the long term. (如果你是一个讨厌跑步的跑步者，这里有一些好消息：从长远来看，慢慢地慢跑比全力跑可能对你的健康更好。)”，文章介绍了一个关于慢跑者和不慢跑者，以及慢跑时的运动量大小不同的试验，研究表明，适量的慢跑才是对身体最好的。故A项“Why Jogging May Be Better For Your Health Than Running (为什么慢跑比跑步更有益于健康？)”适合作文章的标题。故选A项。
D
“Lonely” is defined in the dictionary as “unhappy because you are alone or do not have anyone to talk to”. However, in my perspective, “being alone” can also be meaningful and enjoyable. In other words, “being alone” isn’t equivalent to “loneliness”. Actually, we can literally enjoy our time when staying alone.
Think of loneliness as the “tunnel phase” of our lives. It’s a time when we don’t have a group of friends around to keep us company; when we are away from the hustle and bustle (熙熙攘攘) of the outside world; when we get the chance to tune in to our inner monologue (独白); when we are given the time to recharge ourselves on our own so that we can focus entirely on ourselves. It is during these periods that, without being disturbed and distracted, we are able to discover the things we truly want from our lives. This process is like digging a tunnel, through which we improve ourselves, achieve our goals and get a jolt of power to prepare for the or darkness we may meet with in our future lives.
A distinguished figure skater (花滑冰运动员) once said in his interview that he often felt lonely, but the external environment would to some extent affect his mind and body, making it difficult for him to concentrate during his practice and performance, and thus he was actually willing to be alone and at times would rather be isolated from the world. This type of “loneliness” must be one of the reasons why he has been able to deliver so many elaborate und splendid performances throughout his career.
So don’t be frightened by the temporary void or unhappy feeling when you have to he alone. Instead, cherish and enjoy the sense of loneliness you get when you are completely free. Spend time with yourself.
We become more independent in loneliness. We grow stronger in loneliness. Most importantly, we find our complete selves in loneliness. When we learn to embrace the feeling of “loneliness” and enjoy the time in which there is no other, loneliness itself ceases to exist.
51. What’s the author’s opinion about “being alone”
A. Being alone is as something shameful
B. Being alone means being lonely and helpless
C. There is no point in being alone.
D. We appreciate our time more when we are alone.
52. How does the author develop Paragraph 2
A. By providing examples.
B. By analyzing causes.
C. By making comparisons.
D. By listing figures.
53. Why is the distinguished figure skater mentioned in the passage
A. To show athletes always feel lonely.
B. To demonstrate the factor of the success.
C. To indicate solitude (独处) is as important as practice.
D. To confirm the positive effect of “loneliness”.
54. What can we learn from the last two paragraphs
A. Time spent with yourselves is more enjoyable than that with others.
B. People will always feel depressed when faced with being alone.
C. Loneliness can benefit us a lot in many aspects.
D. Loneliness can exist all the time, so we should change our attitude toward it.
55. What is the author’s purpose for writing this passage
A. To illustrate different opinions on staying alone.
B. To encourage people to learn to value and enjoy their time of loneliness.
C. To persuade people into staying away from others.
D. To offer some suggestions on how to spend time alone.
【答案】51. D 52. C 53. D 54. C 55. B
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇议论文。文章谈论了“孤独”给人们带来的好处，鼓励人们学会珍惜和享受孤独的时光。
【51题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段中“However, in my perspective, ‘being alone’ can also be meaningful and enjoyable. In other words, ‘being alone’ isn’t equivalent to ‘loneliness’. Actually, we can literally enjoy our time when staying alone. (然而，在我看来，‘独处’也可以是有意义和愉快的。换句话说，‘独处’并不等于‘孤独’。事实上，我们可以真正享受独处的时光)”可知，作者认为我们应该更珍惜独处的时光。故选D项。
【52题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段中“Think of loneliness as the “tunnel phase” of our lives. (把孤独想象成我们生活中的“隧道阶段”)”以及“This process is like digging a tunnel, through which we improve ourselves, achieve our goals and get a jolt of power to prepare for the or darkness we may meet with in our future lives. (这个过程就像挖掘一条隧道，通过它我们提高自己，实现我们的目标，并获得一股力量，为我们未来生活中可能遇到的黑暗做准备)”可知，作者是通过把孤独比喻为隧道阶段展开本段的。故选C项。
【53题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段“A distinguished figure skater (花滑冰运动员) once said in his interview that he often felt lonely, but the external environment would to some extent affect his mind and body, making it difficult for him to concentrate during his practice and performance, and thus he was actually willing to be alone and at times would rather be isolated from the world. This type of ‘loneliness’ must be one of the reasons why he has been able to deliver so many elaborate und splendid performances throughout his career. (一位杰出的花样滑冰运动员曾在接受采访时表示，他经常感到孤独，但外界环境会在一定程度上影响他的身心，使他在练习和表演时难以集中精力，因此他其实是愿意独处的，有时甚至宁愿与外界隔绝。这种‘孤独’一定是他在整个职业生涯中能够提供如此多精心制作和精彩表演的原因之一)”可知，文章中提到著名的花样滑冰运动员是为了确认“孤独”的积极作用。故选D项。
【54题详解】
推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“So don’t be frightened by the temporary void or unhappy feeling when you have to he alone. Instead, cherish and enjoy the sense of loneliness you get when you are completely free. Spend time with yourself. (所以，当你不得不独自一人时，不要被暂时的空虚或不快乐的感觉所吓倒。相反，珍惜和享受你完全自由时的孤独感。花时间和自己在一起)”和最后一段“We become more independent in loneliness. We grow stronger in loneliness. Most importantly, we find our complete selves in loneliness. When we learn to embrace the feeling of ‘loneliness’ and enjoy the time in which there is no other, loneliness itself ceases to exist. (我们在孤独中变得更加独立。我们在孤独中变得更坚强。最重要的是，我们在孤独中找到完整的自我。当我们学会拥抱‘孤独’的感觉，享受没有他人的时光时，孤独本身就不复存在了)”可知，从最后两段中我们了解到孤独可以在很多方面给我们带来好处。故选C项。
【55题详解】
推理判断题。通读全文，尤其根据最后一段中“Most importantly, we find our complete selves in loneliness. When we learn to embrace the feeling of ‘loneliness’ and enjoy the time in which there is no other, loneliness itself ceases to exist. (最重要的是，我们在孤独中找到完整的自我。当我们学会拥抱‘孤独’的感觉，享受没有他人的时光时，孤独本身就不复存在了)”可知，作者写这篇文章的目的是鼓励人们学会珍惜和享受孤独的时光。故选B项。

A funny thing happened about a month ago when I opened the double doors of a small storage area in the back of my house where I kept my garden supplies during the long winter.
There, on top of a tower of dirt-filled pots, was a flash of green, topped with two of the most unlikely pink flowers you’ve ever seen. A quick examination showed that, in fact, this was a living, growing plant.
How was this possible I was lost in thought. I couldn’t figure out how the plant survived under such environment. The unheated space had been sealed up (被密封) by us all winter, except for the times when we opened the doors to take the tools. It was still cold outside. Could this be one of those garden miracles I’d read about
I wondered what helped the plant exist. I looked around and discovered something approaching an explanation. There are small glasses along the top of the double doors. And it’s possible that a ray of sun beams (照射) directly on that pot, giving it just enough light and warmth to let it to live in its own personal greenhouse.
I learned some lessons from this wonderful plant.
For one thing, I am moved by the accident of the whole thing. Had I started to put my pot six inches to the left or right of that spot, the plant might not have derived a little warmth from the sunshine. Had I pulled out the roots of the plant instead of cutting back the greenery in late fall, there would have been nothing but dirt in that pot.
But there’s something else that inspires me about this. Just how little light and warmth it took for this plant to move forward, grow and flower. It is wonderful to consider that just a drop of sunshine can awaken a day, a place and a life. When it comes to positivity, a little goes a long way.
56. How did the plant look like (no more than 10 words)
________________________________________________________________________________________
57. In what environment did the plant grow (no more than 10 words)
________________________________________________________________________________________
58. What helped the plant exist (no more than 10 words)
________________________________________________________________________________________
59. What does the underlined word in Paragraph 6 mean (1 word)
________________________________________________________________________________________
60. What do you learn from the story Please explain in your own words.(no more than 20 words)
________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】56. It was green and living, with pink flowers.
57. An unheated space sealed up almost all winter.
58. A ray of sunshine coming from the outside.
59. Got/Obtained.
60. We should be positive because positive energy even a little, can spread and bring hope to many aspects of life.
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇夹叙夹议文。作者通过一个故事得出感悟：株植物生长、生长和开花所需要的光和热是多么的少。想想一滴阳光就能唤醒一天、一个地方和一个生命，这真是太美妙了。说到积极性，一点点就大有帮助。所以我们应该积极，因为正能量哪怕是一点点，都能传播并给生活的方方面面带来希望。
【56题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段内容“There, on top of a tower of dirt-filled pots, was a flash of green, topped with two of the most unlikely pink flowers you’ve ever seen. A quick examination showed that, in fact, this was a living, growing plant.(在堆积如山的，肮脏的罐子上，闪现出一抹绿色，顶部有两朵最不可能看见的粉色花朵。快速的检查表明，实际上，这是一个活着的，正在生长的植物)”可知，这个植物是绿色的，充满生机的并带有粉色的花朵。故答案是It was green and living, with pink flowers.。
【57题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中“The unheated space had been sealed up (被密封) by us all winter”可知这个没有暖气的地方被我们封闭了一整个冬天，故答案是An unheated space sealed up almost all winter.。
【58题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段最后一句“And it’s possible that a ray of sun beams (照射) directly on that pot, giving it just enough light and warmth to let it to live in its own personal greenhouse.(可能是直接照射在罐子上的一缕阳光，给了它足够的光和热，让它在自己的温室里生长)”可知，是外面照射的一缕阳光帮助了植物生存。故答案是A ray of sunshine coming from the outside.。
【59题详解】
词义猜测题。划线词所在句提到“Had I started to put my pot six inches to the left or right of that spot(如果我开始把罐子靠左或者靠右放六英寸)”，由此可推测，植物就不能得到一点太阳的热量，所以划线词“derived”意为“得到”，故答案是Got/Obtained.。
【60题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章最后两句“It is wonderful to consider that just a drop of sunshine can awaken a day, a place and a life. When it comes to positivity, a little goes a long way.”可知，仅仅一点点的阳光也可以唤醒一整天。说到积极，一点点就能发挥很大作用。所以从这个故事中，我们可以得出，我们应该积极，因为正能量哪怕是一点点，都能传播并给生活的方方面面带来希望。故答案是We should be positive because positive energy even a little, can spread and bring hope to many aspects of life.。

A. To learn math well.
B. To grow vegetables.
C. To do some experiments.
【答案】73. B 74. A 75. A 76. C
【解析】
【原文】M: Growing crops in containers saves water. It needs little fertilizer(肥料). In addition, the chemicals cannot run off into nearby waterways. The same earth mixture can be used for five or six years.
Since Earth Boxes went on sale in 1994, many people around the world have used them. Other people have made their own vegetable growing boxes. Some use two large plastic containers. One container has holes in the bottom and sits inside the other box. Earth mixture goes into the top container, and water goes through a tube into the bottom box. A plastic trash bag is then used to cover the top container.
Some people think this kind of gardening will be important to people in poor countries where hunger is a problem. A lot of food can be grown in a small space for a small amount of money.
The people who make Earth Boxes are interested in educating young people. They have developed a program aimed at teaching students science and agriculture. When children first enter elementary school, they learn about water, soil, light, and nutrition. In middle school, they do experiments and collect information. In high school, they learn how to use math to better understand what happens when plants grow. The learning program includes written materials for teachers and students. And it uses an Earth Box in the classroom as a small laboratory for experiments.高三英语

第二部分阅读理解(共20个小题，每小题2.5分，满分50分)
阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。
A
Kazumi
My main reason for coming here was the Human Rights course. When I was at school I couldn’t decide whether I wanted to be a doctor or a lawyer, but having decided to be a lawyer, I then had to choose which first degree I should take before starting law school in another city. I’ve always wanted to help people and I figured that taking Human Rights would allow me to learn about how I can make a real difference in the world.
Vladimir
I love maths. I was torn between two possibilities: I could become an engineer and apply maths at a practical level. Or I could become a maths teacher. I needn’t have worried because in the end I didn’t have to choose! I got everything I wanted thanks to my university, which will qualify me to be a high school teacher while gaining a general engineering degree at the same time.
Osvaldo
One of the reasons I chose this university was because of the effort that they put into organising the open day. The lecturers and current students provide an enthusiastic overview (概述) of their courses and of life in the city. This was in contrast to other universities I visited, which just let their reputation do the talking. Although I chose not to live on campus (校园), the rooms there seemed comfortable and very reasonably priced.
Maria
When the time came to select the university, I had three possibilities, but I still could not decide. So it was time to schedule campus tours. They all had their advantages, but this place instantly appealed to me. As soon as I arrived, I was struck by the smiles everyone gave me. What I value most here is the feeling that I am part of a supportive community.
36. What job has Kazumi made up her mind to do
A. A doctor. B. A lawyer.
C. A maths teacher. D. A lecturer on Human Rights.
37. Who can obtain a double qualification from his or her university
A. Kazumi. B. Vladimir. C. Osvaldo. D. Maria.
38. Why did Osvaldo, choose his university
A. He found the courses affordable.
B. His university sold itself more convincingly.
C. He was won over by the university’s reputation.
D. His university offered excellent accommodation.
39. What do we know about Maria
A. She takes great interest in community service.
B. She made her choice from the very beginning.
C. She feels a sense of belonging at her university.
D. She was hoping to pass on knowledge to others.
40. What’s the best title for this passage
A. Choosing your favorite subject B. How to make friends
C. How to choose a community D. Choosing a university
B
Like many new graduates, I left university full of hope for the future but with no real idea of what I wanted to do. My degree, with honors, in English literature had not really prepared me for anything practical. I knew I wanted to make a difference in the world somehow, but I had no idea how to do that. That’s when I learned about the Lighthouse Project.
I started my journey as a Lighthouse Project volunteer by reading as much as I could about the experiences of previous volunteers. I knew it would be a lot of hard work, and that I would be away from my family and friends for a very long time. In short, I did not take my decision to apply for the Lighthouse Project lightly. Neither did my family.
Eventually, however, I won the support of my family, and I sent in all the paperwork needed for the application. After countless interviews and presentations, I managed to stand out among the candidates and survive the test alone. Several months later, I finally received a call asking me to report for the duty. I would be going to a small village near Abuja, Nigeria. Where What Nigeria I had no idea. But I was about to find out.
After completing my training, I was sent to the village that was small and desperately in need of proper accommodation. Though the local villagers were poor, they offered their homes, hearts, and food as if I were their own family. I was asked to lead a small team of local people in building a new schoolhouse. For the next year or so, I taught in that same schoolhouse. But I sometimes think I learned more from my students than they did from me.
Sometime during that period, I realized that all those things that had seemed so strange or unusual to me no longer did, though I did not get anywhere with the local language, and returned to the United States a different man. The Lighthouse Project had changed my life forever.

43. In his application for the volunteer job, the author _______________.

C
If you’re a runner who secretly hates running, here’s some good news: settling into a leisurely jog rather than an all-out run may actually be better for your health in the long term.
A team from Denmark followed over 5, 000 people taking part in the Copenhagen City Heart Study, and tracked whether they were non-joggers, or joggers who kept a slow, moderate (中等的), or fast pace. The participants’ health was tracked over the next 12 years, and so was their mortality (死亡率): 28 of the joggers and 128 of the non-joggers died.
The connection was this: Joggers of mild and moderate intensity had a lower risk of death than the fast joggers. In fact, the lowest mortality risk was that of the mild intensity joggers. The fast-paced joggers had about the same mortality rate as sedentary (久坐的) people. This suggests that there may be an upper limit to hard exercise, after which the benefits fall off.
“The U-shaped association between jogging and mortality suggests there may be an upper limit for exercise amount that is best for health benefits,” said study author Peter Schnohr. “Anything more is not just unnecessary; it may be harmful.” From the current study, jogging just three times per week, for less than 2.5 hours per week was associated with the lowest overall mortality risk.
There have been a lot of mixed messages about the “right” amount of exercise and what intensity is best. The World Health Organization has suggested that the current 150 minutes per week recommendations are strenuous for most people to tackle, and that expectations should be lowered, since, after all, anything is better than nothing. Everyone probably has a level of activity that feels best to him or her. But at least the growing consensus seems to be that more — if you’re pushing yourself very hard— is not necessarily better. And it may even be worse.
46. What was the study designed to find out
A. The relation between exercise amount and health.
B. The difference between non-joggers and joggers.
C. The advantages of jogging over running.
D. The common causes of death from exercise.
47. Who will face the highest mortality risk according to the study
A. Those jogging just three times per week. B. Those jogging 150 minutes per week.
C. Those fast-paced joggers. D. Those slow-paced joggers.
48. What might Peter Schnohr agree with
A. The early bird catches the worm. B. Wealth is nothing without health.
C. To go beyond is as wrong as to fall short. D. Enough exercise brings about happiness.
49. What does the underlined word “strenuous” in the last paragraph mean
A. Intense. B. Wide-ranging.
C. Necessary. D. Far-reaching.
50. What would be the best title for the text
A. Why Jogging May Be Better For Your Health Than Running
B. Can Jogging Increase Your Weight
C How Does Jogging Affect Your Health
D. How Often Should Beginners Run
D
“Lonely” is defined in the dictionary as “unhappy because you are alone or do not have anyone to talk to”. However, in my perspective, “being alone” can also be meaningful and enjoyable. In other words, “being alone” isn’t equivalent to “loneliness”. Actually, we can literally enjoy our time when staying alone.
Think of loneliness as the “tunnel phase” of our lives. It’s a time when we don’t have a group of friends around to keep us company; when we are away from the hustle and bustle (熙熙攘攘) of the outside world; when we get the chance to tune in to our inner monologue (独白); when we are given the time to recharge ourselves on our own so that we can focus entirely on ourselves. It is during these periods that, without being disturbed and distracted, we are able to discover the things we truly want from our lives. This process is like digging a tunnel, through which we improve ourselves, achieve our goals and get a jolt of power to prepare for the or darkness we may meet with in our future lives.
A distinguished figure skater (花滑冰运动员) once said in his interview that he often felt lonely, but the external environment would to some extent affect his mind and body, making it difficult for him to concentrate during his practice and performance, and thus he was actually willing to be alone and at times would rather be isolated from the world. This type of “loneliness” must be one of the reasons why he has been able to deliver so many elaborate und splendid performances throughout his career.
So don’t be frightened by the temporary void or unhappy feeling when you have to he alone. Instead, cherish and enjoy the sense of loneliness you get when you are completely free. Spend time with yourself.
We become more independent in loneliness. We grow stronger in loneliness. Most importantly, we find our complete selves in loneliness. When we learn to embrace the feeling of “loneliness” and enjoy the time in which there is no other, loneliness itself ceases to exist.
51. What’s the author’s opinion about “being alone”
A. Being alone is as something shameful
B. Being alone means being lonely and helpless
C. There is no point in being alone.
D. We appreciate our time more when we are alone.
52. How does the author develop Paragraph 2
A. By providing examples.
B. By analyzing causes.
C. By making comparisons.
D. By listing figures.
53. Why is the distinguished figure skater mentioned in the passage
A. To show athletes always feel lonely.
B. To demonstrate the factor of the success.
C. To indicate solitude (独处) is as important as practice.
D. To confirm the positive effect of “loneliness”.
54. What can we learn from the last two paragraphs
A. Time spent with yourselves is more enjoyable than that with others.
B. People will always feel depressed when faced with being alone.
C. Loneliness can benefit us a lot in many aspects.
D. Loneliness can exist all the time, so we should change our attitude toward it.
55. What is the author’s purpose for writing this passage
A. To illustrate different opinions on staying alone.
B. To encourage people to learn to value and enjoy their time of loneliness.
C. To persuade people into staying away from others.
D. To offer some suggestions on how to spend time alone.

A funny thing happened about a month ago when I opened the double doors of a small storage area in the back of my house where I kept my garden supplies during the long winter.
There, on top of a tower of dirt-filled pots, was a flash of green, topped with two of the most unlikely pink flowers you’ve ever seen. A quick examination showed that, in fact, this was a living, growing plant.
How was this possible I was lost in thought. I couldn’t figure out how the plant survived under such environment. The unheated space had been sealed up (被密封) by us all winter, except for the times when we opened the doors to take the tools. It was still cold outside. Could this be one of those garden miracles I’d read about
I wondered what helped the plant exist. I looked around and discovered something approaching an explanation. There are small glasses along the top of the double doors. And it’s possible that a ray of sun beams (照射) directly on that pot, giving it just enough light and warmth to let it to live in its own personal greenhouse.
I learned some lessons from this wonderful plant.
For one thing, I am moved by the accident of the whole thing. Had I started to put my pot six inches to the left or right of that spot, the plant might not have derived a little warmth from the sunshine. Had I pulled out the roots of the plant instead of cutting back the greenery in late fall, there would have been nothing but dirt in that pot.
But there’s something else that inspires me about this. Just how little light and warmth it took for this plant to move forward, grow and flower. It is wonderful to consider that just a drop of sunshine can awaken a day, a place and a life. When it comes to positivity, a little goes a long way.
