四、阅读理解（每题2分，计30分）
A
Material 1:
For many people, having a cup of coffee right out of bed is the best way to start a day. But a report from ASAP Science says otherwise.
It says the worst time for coffee is soon after we get up. When we wake up, our bodies start to make cortisol（皮质醇）. Cortisol helps us think clearly and be quick to understand and act. The cortisol levels rise after we wake up and climb to the highest in about an hour. So there are two problems when we drink coffee during this time: Our bodies will make less cortisol, and the cortisol will make coffee less useful. And that's why some of us drink more and more coffee.
Then, when is the best time to have coffee When the cortisol levels are going down, the report says. Cortisol levels are usually highest between 8 a.m. and 9 a.m., between noon and 1 p.m., and between 5:30 p.m. and 6:30 p.m. So if you want to have coffee, enjoy it after these times, and this popular drink will help you the most.

I was telling my boy Sonny the story of the hare and the tortoise. At the end I said, “Son, remember: Be slow and steady (镇定的), and that will win the race. Don’t you think there’s something to learn from the tortoise ”
Sonny opened his eyes wide, “Do you mean next time when I’m entering for the 60-metre race I should wish that Billy, Tony and Sandy would all fall asleep halfway ”
I was shocked, “But the tortoise didn’t wish that the hare would fall asleep!”
“He must have wished that,” Sonny said, “Otherwise how could he be so foolish as to race with the hare He knew very well the hare ran a hundred times faster than he himself did.”
“He didn’t have such a wish,” I insisted. “He won the race by perseverance (坚忍不拔), by pushing on steadily.”
Sonny thought a while. “That’s a lie,” he said. “He won it because he was lucky. If the hare hadn’t happened to fall asleep, the tortoise would never have won the race. He could be as steady as you like, or a hundred times steadier, but he’d never have won the race. That’s for sure.”

　As I grow up, I know that life plays a very important role in my education I really wanted to achieve. What I mean is that life can teach you things no one else can. It's time to have lessons of life. Pay attention and you can know what I call the school of life.
Use your head
You have to be smart to survive in this world. Anytime you need to make a move, stop and think. Obviously there will be times when you need to take action first,but if you’ve been taking the time to plan, you’ll always make the right choice. Fail to plan,plan to fail.
Set your goals
In my team, if you don’t finish the job well, we will fire you. Your goals should be on building a base of solid and complete work. Make certain a list of what you have to do and start with the biggest and most difficult task. The key here is goals.
Respect your superiors(上级)
Your boss is in his position for a reason, no matter what you think of him. If he’s not the best one, be patient—he’ll be out of there soon. In the meantime, you have to respect him as your superior. That means following orders and closing your mouth. If you don’t respect your boss, how will you expect the people under you to do the same
Keep your cool
You should never let your emotions(情绪) control you. You should learn to keep calm. Never lose your cool when dealing in business, or it will ruin the whole thing.
The school of life can be hard, but if you're smart and play your cards right, you can come out with an A+. Just treat every situation as a learning experience. I hope you've studied.

五、信息还原（每题2分，计10分）
Some people are very forgetful, while others can remember everything they have done.Scientists know a lot about how our brains store and remember facts and experiences. 56 A new study looks at forgetting. A team of researchers from the U.S. studied the brain’s process of forgetting things. The researchers are cognitive neuroscientists(认知神经科学家). 57 On the one hand, cognitive neuroscientists’ work may help people who have memory problems. 58 The lead scientist Marie Banich said, “It may sound surprising that people can control what and how they forget.”
59 She also said it could keep the brain working smoothly.Her research found ways that people remove information from their brain. She said, “ 60 ” Removing information is important because it means we can focus on more important tasks. However, although we can control what and how we forget, the act of forgetting needs a lot of effort. Another researcher, Sara Festini, agreed. She said, “We’ve found that intentionally forgetting no-longer-relevant information from the mind is beneficial, but it doesn’t happen automatically.’
A. Banich said,“Forgetting is important.” B. There is little research on how or why the brain forgets things. C. Cognitive neuroscientists study the brain and how it thinks and works. D. We have control over the ability to remove information from our thoughts. E. People can remember what they want to remember. F. On the other hand, it may also help those with depression and dementia(痴呆症).
六、回答问题（不多于6个词）（每题2分，计10分）
Chinese people like the red colour a lot. Even now, Chinese people like to refer to ourselves as Chizi.
Red represents the motherland and authority. Official uniforms of the Tang dynasty were red. In the Qing dynasty, red was used on official caps to show different rankings. As we know, the five-star red flag was first raised on October 1st, 1949. Even nowadays, headlines of official documents（文件）are painted red. This is why they are called red-head documents.
For ordinary people, red stands for happiness. For example, the word “double happiness” used for weddings is red. The bride（新娘）wears red clothes which are different from the white gowns of the West. During the Spring Festival, Chinese people give red packets with money inside to children as good wishes. Couplets（对联）hanging on both sides of the doors are red. The word red equals prettiness. The expression “hongyan” is a synonym of a beautiful girl. Red is also one of the most popular words used in the names of Chinese women. But in traffic lights, red means stopping driving. Westerners like to use the red colour because red is very bright, and it is good for warning purposes. But it doesn't really have any negative meanings.
61.When was the five-star red flag first raised
62. Why are official documents called red-head documents
63.For ordinary people, what does red stand for
64. When do Chinese people give red packets
65.What do you think of the red colour

Dear Sir,
I’m writing to recommend Sandy as this year’s School Star. She is a hard-working, confident and caring girl. She likes kinds of colours and is good at changing mood with colours. She loves basketball and she hopes to be a basketball player in the future. She is interested in classical music because it makes her feel relaxed. Her favourite pianist is Mozart. She used to spend a lot of time playing basketball and didn’t do well in her exams. She intends to study hard in order to get good grades. Now she knows how to manage her time and how to balance her hobbies and studies. She has made great progress.
I think she is qualified to be selected as the School Star.
Yours sincerely,
Lily
