A growing number of families in China are able to afford a piano and lessons for their children. By 2016, the number of children learning piano in China exceeded 30 million and the number has risen by 10 percent every year since. The piano used to be a rare foreign import in China; now four in five are made here. Much of this can be traced back to the tiny Chinese island of Gulangyu.
After the first opium war in 1842, foreign powers forced the emperor to permit their residents to live in several “treaty ports”. One of those was Xiamen. Gulangyu, which lies just a five-minute ferry ride offshore, was an international settlement. The foreign residents popularised the piano as an everyday amusement. There was soon hardly a family on the island that did not host or go to hear an evening recital (演奏会).
For decades the island has achieved longstanding fame: the largest number of pianos per person in China. The result was a stream of outstanding musicians. The island’s most celebrated musician is YinChengzong. In 1969 he arranged an earlier revolutionary cantata into the “Yellow River Piano Concerto”. It remains China’s most famous orchestral composition.
Where once Western classical music flowed into China, pianists and their works are pouring out. Of the 50 million children learning the instrument worldwide, as many as 40 million may be Chinese. The government lavishes money on orchestras, which now number over 80, and new concert halls. Demanding parents and cool young things fill them to hear the most talented pianists-among whom, in recent decades, have been Lang Lang, Li Yundi and Yuja Wang-play some beautifully judged Bach or fiendishly hard Rachmaninov. Although reports show that about 10 percent of learners born in the 1990s rarely touch the instrument after they have finished all the exams for amateur learners, most have made it part of their life.
24. What has the island of Gulangyu been known for
A. Its geographic location.
B. Its many outstanding musicians.
C. The history as an international settlement.
D. The largest number of pianos per person in China.
25. The underlined word in paragraph 4 refers to ________.
A. children B. pianists C. concert halls D. musical instruments
26. What can we learn about piano
A. Residents on Gulangyu hardly host or hear an evening recital
B. Chinese piano learners seldom play it after passing the exams.
C. Few talented Chinese pianists and famous pieces are coming out.
D. The foreigners living on Gulangyu made piano a household pastime.
27. What is the text mainly about
A. How piano develops in China. B. Where piano in China originated.
C. Why piano is popular in Gulangyu. D. When piano was first brought to China.
C
About six years ago, I was sitting on a plane next to a woman who was extremely energetic. I was tired and wanted to take a nap, but she tapped me on the shoulder to introduce herself.
"Hi, my name is Helga."
As we talked, it came up that I had started an organization in high school called R.A．K.E. (Random Acts of Kindness, Etc.). As I described what we did, Helga got very serious and said to me, "There is nothing more important in the world than kindness."
I was curious about what she had said, and as the plane took off. she began telling me a story about the last time she had flown.
It was three years ago and she was heading back to her hometown because her father had become very ill.
Just as the plane was about to leave, her father's doctor called to inform her that her father had suddenly passed away. For the three hour plane ride, she sat in stunned(受惊的) silence,.
When she arrived at the airport in her hometown, she walked to the nearest bench(长椅),sat down and cried.
For two hours, she sat and wept while thousands of people just walked on by.
"Not a single person stopped and asked if I was OK that day. It was on that day that I realized kindness isn't normal. "
Helga's words have stuck with me for all these years. I'm reminded all the time that for many of us, kindness is not usually our "default setting (默认设置)".
We spend so much time worrying about our own problems that we walk by or ignore other people in need of a bit of kindness.
So, I've made it my mission to do my part in making kindness "normal".
Now, I travel to schools all across the US to speak about compassion(同情),empathy(同感),and love.
I' m proud to share my stories with students, teachers, and parents about our need for character, compassion, and kindness.
Providing young people with practical ways to exercise kindness makes my job more satisfying than any other I can think of.
And when I give my talks, I always have my conversation with Helga in the back of my mind.
28．We can know from the first four paragraphs that the author___________.
A．was always eager to make friends B．was angry to be disturbed by Helga
C．found Helga a very serious person D．was interested in Helga's story
29．During Helga's trip to her hometown, she___________.
A．couldn't help but cry on the flight
B．blamed the doctor for not calling her earlier
C．came to realize the value of kindness
D．received help from passengers beside her

Engineers from the University at Buffalo, Fudan University in China, and the University of Wisconsin-Madison have come together with funding from the National Science Foundation to produce an efficient and cost-effective device that purifies drinking water using the world’s most abundant power source---the sun.
More than 2, 300 years ago, the philosopher Aristotle described the water cycle. He has explained that water is heated by the sun, evaporates (蒸发) up into the air, condenses (凝结) into drops, and then falls back to the ground, pure and free of pollutants.
Professor Qiaoqiang Gan and the other engineers created a method of purifying water that builds upon Aristotle’s ancient observations. Gan’s team invented a solar water purifier that is a modern version of an evaporative solar still. This device looks like the roof of a tent, with strips (条) of carbon-coated paper covering the top so that the paper strip hangs down on the sides. The ends of the paper strip dip into a water container at the bottom. Gradually, the water in the container is absorbed by the paper. When the black carbon coating on the paper is heated by the sun, the wet paper begins to dry. During evaporation, salt, dirt, bacteria, and other pollutants are trapped in the paper. As the temperature cools, water droplets begin to condense on the surface of the paper. The purified water is collected in a clean container and is ready to drink.
There are a few key advantages of the solar water purifier. First, the device is quick and efficient. The solar still can generate up to 5 gallons of clean water daily, which is enough to provide sufficient drinking water for a family. Furthermore, this solar water purifier is cheaper than other water-purification devices because it is made with inexpensive and widely available materials.
There are also disadvantages in terms of the adaptation to diverse environments on Earth and the building up of salt in the process. Currently, the engineers are working to make their purifier available worldwide. Soon, drinkable water will be purified and accessible where it is needed.
32. Why does the author mention Aristotle and the water cycle in the text
A. To catch readers’ attention and interest.
B. To add more authority to the new invention.
C. To show the history of the solar water purifier.
D. To help illustrate the basic working principles of the invention
33. What is the main function of the carbon-coated paper
A. To cover the top. B. To collect clean water.
C. To hang down on the sides. D. To absorb water and heat from the sun.
34. What is paragraph 3 mainly about
A. What the researchers have done.
B. How the solar water purifier works.
C. What the solar water purifier can do.
D. How similar Aristotle’s observation is to the purifier.
35. What might the author think of the future of the solar water purifier
A. Dark. B. Uncertain. C. Promising. D. Unpredictable.

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。
Peter woke up early in the morning. He went downstairs in a hurry and started to have his breakfast as quickly as possible.
“Why are you in such a hurry, early bird ” Mum asked him. “We will have an English spelling test today, Mum,” Peter said. “Mr. White promised to offer prizes to those who get 100 scores. I've been studying the word list since last week. Although the words are difficult, I am well prepared for them.”
Peter reviewed the spelling of each word once more carefully when Dad drove him to school. At last, it was time for the students to have a test. “Responsibility,” Mr. White started. Peter wrote it on his test paper quickly and confidently.
“The second word: contribution,” Mr. White said.
“So easy,” Peter thought. He quickly wrote the word down.
Thirty words later, the test papers were collected by Mr. White. “I am to mark your papers now,” he told the class. After marking the test papers, Mr. White said, “three of you won a prize today for excellent test scores. Peter, David and Mary got 100 percent on the spelling test!”
Mr. White praised them. Meanwhile, he gave the three students each a dictionary. Peter's was an English-Chinese dictionary —the one he liked best. Peter was so excited that he held it high when his classmates cheered. “This is my happiest moment.” Peter thought.
After Mr. White gave the test paper back, Peter had a look at the words, feeling proud of his spelling. All of a sudden, the word “contribution” confused him. It didn't seem right. Peter began to compare them after taking out the word list. “C-o-n-t-r-i-b-u-s-i-o-n,” he whispered. He had spelled it wrong.
（注意：1.续写词数应为150词左右；2.每段开头已给出，不计入总词数。）

【25题详解】词句猜测题。根据画线词上文“The government lavishes money on orchestras, which now number over 80, and new concert halls.(政府在管弦乐队和新的音乐厅上投入了大量资金，现在管弦乐队的人数已经超过80人)”以及“Demanding parents and cool young things fill”可知，可知，要求高的父母和他们酷酷的孩子们涌入各大音乐厅去听最有才华的钢琴家们演奏。故them指代的是上句的“concert halls”。故选C。

Much of this can be traced back to the tiny Chinese island of Gulangyu.(在中国，有越来越多的家庭买得起钢琴，也有能力让孩子上钢琴课。截至2016年，中国学习钢琴的儿童人数超过3000万，此后每年以10%的速度增长。钢琴在中国曾经是稀有的舶来品；现在五分之四是在这里生产的。这在很大程度上可以追溯到中国的小岛鼓浪屿)”结合文章介绍了钢琴在中国的发展，从历史起源到现在的蓬勃发展。故选A。

29．细节理解题。根据第五、六、七、八段可知，Helga 在回家路上没有人停下来去询问和关心她，再根据第九段中Helga说的"It was on that day that I realized kindness isn't normal"，可知在她意识到了善行在世界上并不是很常见，因此更意识到善行的宝贵。故选C。
30．推理判断题。根据最后七段内容可知，作者一直记着Helga的话，并且努力想要使善行变得更常见。作者通过到各地学校做演讲，让学生、老师和家长们意识到我们对善行的需要，并给年轻人提供一些去实践善行的方法。而作者自己也认为自己的工作非常"satisfying (令人满意的)"。故选D。

第四部分 写作（共两节，满分40分）
第一节：应用文写作（满分15分）
Last Friday, our school organized a knowledge contest themed “Wildlife Protection”, which turned out to be a great success.
As scheduled, this contest kicked off at 3 p. m. in the school auditorium. To begin with, 12 participants went on stage in order, giving a brief introduction. After that, they took turns to answer the questions given by the host. The contestants who did not give the right answers in time were knocked out immediately. The whole contest climaxed with two finalists battling for five minutes until one spoke out the answer -Tibetan antelopes.
This activity received high praise, as not only did it provide a platform for students to show their good knowledge base, but it also raised their awareness of wildlife protection.
