Surviving Hurricane Sandy (飓风桑迪)
Natalie Doan, 14, has always felt lucky to live in Rockaway, New York. Living just near the beach, Natalie can see the ocean and hear the waves from her house. “It’s the ocean that makes Rockaway so special,” she says.
On October 29, 2012, that ocean turned fierce(猛烈的). That night, Hurricane Sandy attacked the East Coast, and Rockaway was hit especially hard. Fortunately, Natalie’s family escaped(逃跑) to Brooklyn shortly before the city’s bridges closed.
When they returned to Rockaway the next day, they found their neighborhood in ruins. Many of Natalie’s friends had lost their homes and were living far away. All around her, people were suffering, especially the elderly. Natalie’s school was so damaged that she had to temporarily attend a school in Brooklyn.
In the following few days, the men and women helping Rockaway recover inspired Natalie. Volunteers came with carloads of donated clothing and toys. Neighbors devoted their spare time to helping others rebuild. Teenagers climbed dozens of flights of stairs to deliver water and food to elderly people trapped(被困在) in powerless high-rise buildings.
“My mom tells me that I can’t control what happens to me,” Natalie says, “but I can always choose how I deal with it.”
Natalie’s choice was to help.
She created a website page, matching survivors in need with donors who wanted to help. Natalie posted information about a boy named Patrick, who lost his baseball card collection when his house burned down. Within days, Patrick’s collection was replaced.
In the coming months, her website page helped lots of kids: Christopher, who received a new basketball; Charlie, who got a new keyboard. Natalie also worked with other organizations to bring much-needed supplies to Rockaway. Her efforts made her a famous person. Last April, she was invited to the White House and honored as a Hurricane Sandy Champion of Change.
Today, the scars (创痕) of destruction are still seen in Rockaway, but hope is in the air. The streets are clear, and many homes have been rebuilt. “I can’t imagine living anywhere but Rockaway,” Natalie declares. “My neighborhood will be back, even stronger than before.”
5．When Natalie returned to Rockaway after the hurricane, she found _____.
A．some friends had lost their lives B．her neighborhood was destroyed
C．her school had moved to Brooklyn D．the elderly were free from suffering
6．According to Paragraph 4, who inspired Natalie most
A．The people helping Rockaway rebuild.
B．The people trapped in high-rise buildings.
C．The volunteers donating money to survivors.
D．Local teenagers bringing clothing to elderly people.
7．How did Natalie help the survivors
A．She gave her toys to other kids. B．She took care of younger children.
C．She called on the White House to help. D．She built an information sharing platform.
8．What does the story intend to tell us
A．Technology is power. B．A friend in need is a friend indeed.
C．East or west, home is best. D．Little people can make a big difference.

A Good Night’s Sleep
Sleep plays an important role in good health and well-being throughout your life. While you’re sleeping, your brain is forming new pathways to help you learn and remember information. Although we all know the importance of getting a good night’s sleep, not all of us know the best way of getting it. A sleep expert, Phil Atherton, gave some top tips for getting the most out of the night, which will leave you ready for action in the morning.
According to Phil Atherton, not eating a large meal before bedtimu can follow a routine like trying not to expose yourself to too much artificial light within 1 hour before bed, as your brain uses light to help set internal “body clock”. Although it might seem unnatue is important for getting a good night’s sleep. The time difference between eating and sleeping should be at least three hours. So you’d better avoid eating any food three hours before bed, as it will lower your blood sugar during sleep and help minimize damage from too much sugar floating around.
It’s also important to find ways to prepare your body for sleep. Yoral to schedule your sleep, the purpose is to send a signal to your body and mind that it’s time to sleep.
Another way to prepare your body for sleep is to get into a relaxed state by taking a bath or listening to soft music. Both of them will help to take the mind off the daytime pressures.
Having a suitable bed, especially a suitable mattress (床垫), is necessary for a good night’s sleep. Sleep is a personalized activity, and we all adopt different sleeping positions. Finding the mattress that suits you will reduce back pains that can result from a poor sleeping position. The bed should be four to six inches longer than its tallest user, allowing for space to move around.
The recent research is pretty clear that a good night’s sleep is a major component of good health. Since the start of the 21st century, studies have linked a lack of sleep to many diseases, such as diabetes and obesity. Taking action now will lead to long-term benefits for you and those around you.
9. What does the author intend to tell us in the passage
A. When to start a sound sleep. B. How to get a good night’s sleep.
C. What to do with sleep problems. D. Why to form a good habit of sleeping.
10. According to the author, before going to sleep, you’d better ______.
A. free yourself from tension(紧张) B. check your blood sugar
C. relieve your pain in the back D. record your biological clock(生物钟)
11. What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 2 refer to
A. Not sleeping well. B. Taking a meal.
C. Not eating food. D. Having a good sleep.
D
Human beings have used tools for a very long time. In some parts of the world you can still find tools that people used more than two million years ago. They made these tools by hitting one stone against another. In this way, they broke off pieces from one of the stones. These chips of stone were usually sharp on one side. People used them for cutting meat and skin from dead animals, and also for making other tools out of wood. Human beings needed to use tools because they did not have sharp teeth like other meat eating animals, such as lions and tigers. Tools helped people to get food more easily.
Working with tools also helped to develop human intelligence. The human brain grew bigger, and human beings began to invent more and more tools and machines. The stone chip was one of the first tools that people used, and perhaps it is the most important. Some scientists say that it was the key to success of mankind.
Since 1960 a new kind of tool has appeared. This is the silicon chip (硅芯片). It is smaller than a finger nail, but it can store lots of information. It is an electronic brain. Every year these chips get cleverer, but their size gets smaller, and their cost gets less. They are used in watches, calculators and intelligent machines that we can use in many ways. In the future we will not need to work with tools in the old way. Machines will do everything for us. People will have plenty of spare time. But what will they do with it
Human beings used stone chips for more than two million years, but human life changed very little in that time. We have used silicon chips for only a few years, but life is changing faster every day. What will life be like twenty years from now What will the world be like two million years from now
12. From paragraph 1, we can know ________.
A. why early human beings cut skin from dead animals
B. how early human beings discovered the tools
C. what early human beings used the tools for
D. what food early human beings stored
13. The stone chip is thought to be the most important tool because it ________.
A. was very important to the development of mankind
B. led to the invention of machines in the early time
C. developed cooking abilities of mankind
D. was one of the first tools of mankind
14. The silicon chip is mentioned(提及) in the passage to ________.
A. show the changes of tools
B. introduce a new kind of tool
C. give an example of using tools
D. compare the effects of two kinds of tools
15. At the end of the passage the author seems to suggest that life in future is ________.
A. out of order B. less colorful C. hard to predict D. full of meanings

My love for dance began when I was very young and I would dream to be a star dancer from time to time. With the drama festival approaching, the school’s drama club had released a notice for the dancer audition (试镜) for The Twelve Dancing Princesses. And of course I was the first one to sign up.
As I left the stage after my audition at school, I could feel it. The power. The future. I knew that someday when dancers’ magazines wrote about me, they would say this moment was when my rise to a star began.
My ballet slippers hurt my feet, but I figured that was helpful. In The Twelve Dancing Princesses, the princesses danced all night so they probably had foot pain, too. My performance was more genuine because of my pain. I needed to show my devotion even when I wasn’t on stage, so I approached Mr. Ellison, the drama club advisor. He told me that casting (角色分配) will be posted tomorrow.“ Thank you, sir,” I said, using the almost British pronunciation of Hollywood stars in the 1940s. I was so sure that Mr. Ellison would cast me as a princess.
The next morning, I went to read the cast list. The twelve princesses were first, by number. I scanned from One to Twelve, but none by me. At the bottom of the casting list, my name finally appeared. My role was a really small one, an old woman who helped a soldier, not one of the princesses! I was desperately disappointed. Mr. Ellison must have made a mistake! No one else in the school had my skills or preparation!.
I found him in his classroom, but he insisted there was no mistake and emphasized that every role in a play was important. Unable to accept the fact, I burst into tears. Mr. Ellison managed to calm me down and encouraged me to have a try in the rehearsal (排练).
注意：1. 续写词数应为 150个左右；
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
The next day, I dragged myself to the rehearsal.

are some suggestions for your journey.
{#{QQABLYSUogAAAIAAARhCAwkaCkOQkBCCAYgOgFAAMAABgRFABAA=}#}
For a comprehensive experience of China, I recommend you start from Beijing, the capital city.
Visit the Forbidden City, which showcases the grandeur of ancient Chinese architecture. Then
head to the Great Wall, a wonder of the world and a symbol of China's long history. After that, you
can go to Xi'an to see the Terracotta Army, an amazing archaeological discovery. Shanghai is also
a must-see city with its modern skyscrapers and vibrant nightlife.
I truly hope you and your family have a wonderful trip in China. Looking forward to hearing
about your adventures.
Best wishes!

第二节（满分 25分）
The next day, I dragged myself to the rehearsal,still feeling disheartened. As we began, I watched
the princesses dance gracefully, a twinge of jealousy stirring within me. But then, as I started to
act out my role, something shifted. Mr. Ellison’s words echoed in my mind, “Every role is
important.” Gradually, I immersed myself in the character of the old woman. My lines flowed
naturally, and I found a newfound respect for my role. To my surprise, my performance drew
applause from my peers. This small role, I realized, could be a powerful one.
Finally, the great day arrived, and “the old woman” couldn’t wait to get on stage. As the
curtains opened, a rush of excitement filled me. I delivered my lines with conviction, feeling more
alive on stage than I had ever been. The audience laughed at my humorous lines, and I felt a sense
of accomplishment. When the final curtain fell, the applause was deafening. Mr. Ellison’s words
had been right — every role was important. I had found my place in the spotlight, not as a princess,
but as an old woman who helped a soldier. And it was enough.
