In the past two years,instead of my favourite maple-frosted donut(枫糖霜甜甜圈) cake,I had one birthday request from my family—hiking and a picnic together.Thankfully,it was my special day,so they only rolled their eyes and sighed once and then agreed to come along—exploring new places and discovering hidden waterfalls.
That was the past two years.That’s not today.
Today is my birthday,and I’m on the other side of the world.I wish that I could hang out with my family and friends in the US.Just for today—on my birthday.
We are “lonely internationals”.It’s hard.I won’t pretend it’s not.
My mother,“Nana” to my four boys,tells me regularly how she has missed almost all of her grandsons’ birthday celebrations.She intentionally connects with them through texts and FaceTime on their birthdays so that she can join us for the time of singing “Happy Birthday” and see the kids blow out their candles.
However,that is not the same as “being there” physically—together.She feels like she misses our major life milestones called “birthdays”.
Today,I’m okay.My mother had made an e-card for me,sent to my email box early this morning.She never forgets.My in-laws,my sister and her family,my sweet friend in France,and my dear friends here in Spain and over there in the US have already wished me “Happy Birthday” online.Some even mailed me cards and gifts across the sea.
The only “gifts” I’m missing are maple-frosted donuts for a birthday cake.My mother tried to bring them to me in Europe when she travelled to visit me.However,after a 20-hour trip across the sea,they weren’t so fresh anymore.
Tonight,we will have a special dinner outside on our back porch in the cool,evening air.I will blow out a lot of candles on my birthday cake.
I am happy.I have breath,life,a heartbeat,and deep inner joy from the love of my family and friends around the world.
24.How has the author celebrated her birthday for the past two years
A.By hanging out with her friends. B.By eating her favourite birthday cake.
C.By travelling to new places on her own. D.By hiking and picnicking with her family.
25.What does the underlined word “that” in paragraph 6 refer to

A.She sent her an e-card. B.She made her a hand-written card.
C.She travelled long hours to visit her. D.She sent her some maple-frosted donuts.
27.What did the author think of her birthday this year

The Sister Rice Festival is held every year in Guizhou’s Taijiang County,where 97 percent of the 168,000 people are from the ethnic(民族的) Miao group.It is an ancient tradition,which brings men and women together through food,gifts and music.
In the days before the festival,young women gather leaves and wild flowers,which they use to dye(给……染色) sticky rice with bright colors.The brightly colored rice,known as Sister Rice,gives the festival its name.During the festival,the young women dress in beautiful traditional clothes with large amounts of silver jewelry(首饰).
The festival includes parades,horse races and musical performances.But the real focus is the interaction between the young women and the young men who visit from surrounding villages and sing songs.In one traditional type of song,a man and a woman take turns to sing to each other,and the first one to make a mistake loses the game.The loser must give the winner a gift,but the winner is expected to give a gift in return,too.
After meeting the men,the women send them home with a bamboo basket containing dyed rice and hidden objects with special meanings.For example,a pair of chopsticks indicates that she wants to marry the man,while garlic shows that she is not interested.
One of several stories about the festival’s beginning is about a girl and a boy who fell in love.The girl’s parents wanted her to marry her uncle’s son.She refused,and the boy likewise refused to marry anyone else.For a time,they could only meet in a field and pass hidden messages to each other through rice in a bamboo basket.Finally,the pair overcame their parents’ opposition and were allowed to marry.
The Sister Rice Festival is perhaps the oldest festival in Asia that encourages love.
28.What is the purpose of young women collecting leaves and wild flowers
A.To decorate their rooms. B.To sell them and make money.
C.To give sticky rice different colors. D.To cover some objects in a basket.
29.Which of the following is NOT the activity taking place in the festival
A.Water skiing. B.Horse races. C.Parades. D.Singing songs.
30.What can we learn from the passage
A.A woman often loses the game.
B.A hidden pair of chopsticks suggests good things.
C.The winner need not send a gift.
D.Often a man needs to sing songs to a young woman.
31.The story in paragraph 5 tells us that 　　　.
A.the boy’s parents didn’t like the girl B.they were not married in the end
C.the boy refused to marry the girl at first D.the rice in the bamboo basket carried their love

Choosing to forget something might take more mental effort than trying to remember it,researchers at the University of Texas discovered.Their findings suggested that in order to forget an unwanted experience,more attention should be focused on it.
“Decades of research has shown that we have the ability to forget something out of our own free will,but how our brains do that is still being questioned.Once we can figure out how memories are weakened and come up with ways to control this,we can design treatment to help people rid themselves of unwanted memories,” said Jarrod Lewis-Peacock,the study’s senior author.
Memories are energetic constructions of the brain that regularly get updated,adjusted and reorganized through experience.The brain is constantly remembering and forgetting information — and much of this happens automatically during sleep.
Their findings not only confirmed that humans have the ability to control what they forget,but that successful intentional forgetting requires more activity than what is required to remember.
“A proper level of brain activity is important to this forgetting mechanism (机制).Too strong,it will strengthen the memory;too weak,you won’t change it,” said Tracy Wang,lead author of the study.“Importantly,it’s the intention to forget that increases the activation of the memory,and when this activation hits the ‘sweet spot’, that’s when it leads to later forgetting of that experience.”
The researchers also found that participants were more likely to forget scenes than faces.“We’re learning how these mechanisms in our brain respond to different types of information,and it will take a lot of further research before we understand how to use our ability to forget,” said Lewis-Peacock.“Hopefully we can find out how we process and get rid of those really strong memories,which can have a powerful effect on our health and well-being.”
32.What remains a puzzle to researchers
A.How our memories can be strengthened.
B.How our brains voluntarily forget something.
C.What effect unwanted memories have on our brains.
D.Whether our brains can voluntarily forget something.
33.Which of the following words can best describe memories
A.Casual. B.Unpredictable. C.Active. D.Permanent.
34.What can we learn from the text
A.It requires less attention to forget than to remember.
B.The more active the brain is,the faster it forgets.
C.Humans can’t keep memories under control.
D.Humans forget faces less easily than scenes.
35.What can be a suitable title for the text
A.What It Takes to Forget an Unwanted Experience
B.Strong Memories Have a Great Influence on Health
C.Forgetting Uses More Brain Power than Remembering
D.How to Train Our Brains to Voluntarily Forget Something

One day,his mother was very busy,and he called his dog,and said,“Come,Caper,let us have a play.” When Willie’s mother missed him,she went to the door and looked out,and could not see him anywhere;but she knew that Caper was with him,and thought they would come back before long.She waited for an hour,and still they did not come.When she came to the gate by the road,she met Mr.Lee,Willie’s father,and told him how long Willie had been gone.Mr.Lee thought he must have gone to sleep under the trees.So they went to all the trees under which Willie was in the habit of playing,but he was not here to be found.By this time,the sun had gone down.The news that Willie was lost soon spread over the neighborhood,and all the men and women turned out to hunt.They hunted all night.The next morning the neighbours were gathered round,and all were trying to think what to do next,when Caper came bounding into the room.
There was a string tied round his neck,and a bit of paper tied to it.Mr.Lee,took the paper,and saw that it was a letter from Willie.He read it aloud.It said,“Oh,father!Come to me.I am in the big hole in the pasture(牧场).”

W:My name is Emily.I had been a dancer for quite a long time.I started studying ballet when I was six years old.By the time I was nine,I was dancing five days a week.When I was eighteen,I decided that I really preferred contemporary dance and that I wanted to do it professionally.So I applied successfully for the training program at the school of Toronto Dance Theatre,and moved to Toronto to attend the program.That was the period of time I enjoyed most in Toronto.I graduated on scholarship and danced professionally for ten years.But after all those years,I found that dance was gradually becoming something that felt like more of a burden than a joy.I found myself increasingly unwilling to drag myself to dance performances,so I quit.I do miss dance,often.But it makes me happy to think that I’ll never have to go to another training session again.

33.C　推理判断题。由第三段的第一句可推断出记忆是活跃的。
34.D　细节理解题。由最后一段中的“The researchers also found that participants were more likely to forget scenes than faces.” 可知,研究人员还发现被研究的对象更容易忘记场景而非人脸。
35.C　标题归纳题。由第一段中的“Choosing to forget something might take more mental effort than trying to remember it”和最后一段中 Lewis-Peacock 所说的话可知,本文主要说明了忘记某事比记住某事更费脑。
【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了青少年应该怎样在感恩节晚宴上帮助父母,包括去杂货店购物、打扫房子、摆好桌子以及准备一些好玩的家庭活动等。
36.A　根据第一段第一句“Your family has been stressing out about hosting this year’s Thanksgiving meal for weeks now,and you want to help out.”可知,上文引出了想要帮忙准备感恩节晚宴,而下文则列出了帮忙的具体方法。因此A项可以起到承上启下的作用。
37.D　根据下文“If you don’t have a car and walking to the grocery store or biking there isn’t a choice,ask your parents if you can go to the grocery store along with them to make the shopping process easier.”可知,D项在与下文进行对比,符合文意。
38.G　根据上文“Clean the house.A clean home is the best setting for Thanksgiving dinner.”可知,你可以打扫房子,因为干净的家是感恩节晚宴的最佳场所。由此可见,G项符合文意。
39.F　根据上文“Some guests may have their kids seated at the table.”可知,有些客人的小孩可能坐在桌子旁,因此F项符合文意。
40.C　根据最后一段第一句“Plan a fun family activity.”可知,你可以组织有趣的家庭活动,故C项符合文意。
【语篇解读】本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。社交媒体使得新年卡片不再盛行,但作者依然喜欢写新年贺卡,保持寄送贺卡的惯例,且坚信寄送贺卡具有重要意义。
41.B　由下文中的“love sending cards to the mixture of people who’ve adorned my life”及“enjoy pushing stamped envelopes into the postbox”可知,此处指“我”坐下来开始写新年贺卡。
42.C　由本句中的“even if”及常识可知,此处表示“我”现在与这些人不怎么见面。设空处填的词应该表示“很少”或者“几乎不”,故选 hardly。
43.D　由本句中的 “I enjoy pushing stamped envelopes into the postbox and decorating my place with the cards”可知,“我”应该是用收到的贺卡装饰屋子。
44.A　与e-card对应的应该是实物贺卡或传统贺卡,故选 physical(物质的,有形的)。
45.B　本句中的it指代上文中提到的社交媒体的普及导致了邮寄卡片的数量减少这一现象。下文中的“When you’re used to your WhatsApp pinging non-stop,the idea of uncapping a pen seems out of date.”提示此处表示“我”理解这个情况,故选 understand。
46.D　由上文中的“your WhatsApp pinging non-stop”及常识可知,与发送电子贺卡相比,寄送贺卡需要花费更多的时间,我们需要花费精力去挑选贺卡、写贺卡祝福语、邮寄贺卡。设空处所填的词应该表示“时间”或者“精力”,故选time。
47.B　由本句中的But及文章最后一段的描述可知,“我”认为寄送新年贺卡的惯例具有重要意义。四个选项中只有valuable(很有价值的,很重要的)符合语境。
48.D　由本句中的 while可知,设空处所在部分与下文“there are some...who aren’t good at online communication”形成对比。结合上文中的“we send around 100 million fewer cards every year,thanks to social media”及“you’re used to your WhatsApp pinging non-stop”可知,此处表示许多人很享受网上社交生活。
49.A　结合常识可知,许多人不擅长在网上交际,尤其是老年人。设空处填的词应表示“尤其,特别”,故选especially。
50.A　该空前的that引导同位语从句,解释说明 comfort的具体内容。上文中提到了老年人不擅长在网上交际,结合常识可知,收到别人寄的贺卡会让他们觉得自己没有被遗忘。
51.C　由上文“who has just moved to a different city”可知,这位朋友刚搬到一座不同的城市,因此在那里他应该一个人也不认识,故选knew。
52.D　由上文“who has just moved to a different city”可知,这位朋友刚搬到一座不同的城市,在那里他应该一个人也不认识。由此推测,他用以前房屋主人的贺卡装饰屋子是为了消除孤独感,故选loneliness。
53.D　本句中的“send cards to our cousins and friends”提示此处表示拿出尘封已久的地址簿,dig out符合语境。
54.A　结合上文及本句中的“instead of the usual electricity bills”可知,人们收到贺卡会感到高兴,故选 happiness。
55.B　由上文可知,在社交媒体盛行的今天,虽然寄送手写贺卡更麻烦,“我”依然喜欢写新年贺卡,也保持着寄送贺卡的惯例。在本段中,“我”呼吁人们向自己的亲朋好友寄送贺卡,由此可知,“我”认为所有的麻烦(放下手机、拿出地址簿、挑选贺卡、写贺卡祝福语、邮寄贺卡)都值得。trouble(麻烦)符合语境。
【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了端午节的起源和传统以及国外的一些庆祝情况。
56.probably　考查副词。此处修饰整个句子,应用副词作状语,故填probably。
57.which　考查定语从句。此处是非限制性定语从句,Christmas是先行词,在句子中作主语,应用关系代词which引导。
58.has moved　考查动词时态和主谓一致。根据时间状语in recent years可知,应用现在完成时,主语为单数意义,故填has moved。
59.with　考查介词。此处考查固定搭配。along with “同……一起”。
60.dating　考查非谓语动词。date back to与主语it存在逻辑上的主谓关系,应用现在分词短语作状语。故填dating。
61.to save　考查非谓语动词。此处为目的状语,应用动词不定式,故填to save。
62.wrapped　考查非谓语动词。动词wrap与空前名词rice之间存在逻辑上的动宾关系,应该用过去分词短语修饰rice,作后置定语。故填wrapped。
63.imagination　考查词性转换。定冠词the后接名词,故填imagination。
64.are held　考查动词的时态、语态和主谓一致。由前面的Every spring可知,句子应使用一般现在时;boat races在定语从句中作主语,为复数意义,与hold构成被动关系,因此用一般现在时的被动语态。故填are held。
65.an　考查冠词。sport在这里为可数名词,泛指“一项不寻常的运动”,应用不定冠词。unusual是以元音音素开头的单词,应用不定冠词an。

If you want to come,please let me know.
Looking forward to your reply.

第二节
He tried very hard to get out,but could not.When the little dog saw that his master was in the shaft,he would not leave him,but ran round and round,reaching down and trying to pull him out.But while Caper was pulling Willie by the coat sleeves,a piece of sod gave way under his feet,and he fell in too.Willie called for his father and mother as loud as he could but he was so far away from the house that no one could hear him.He cried and called till it was dark,and then he lay down on the ground,and Caper lay down close beside him.It was not long before Willie cried himself to sleep.
When he awoke,it was morning,and he began to think of a way to get out.The little writing book that his aunt had given him was in his pocket.He took it out,and after a good deal of trouble,wrote the letter to his father.Then he tore the leaf out,took a string out of his pocket,tied it round Caper’s neck,and tied the letter to the string.Then he lifted the dog up,helped him out,and said to him,“Go home,Caper,go home!” The little dog scampered away,and was soon at home.
