In the kitchen of my mother's houses there has always been a wooden stand（木架）with a small notepad（记事本）and a hole for a pencil.
I'm looking for paper on which to note down the name of a book I am recommending to my mother. Over forty years since my earliest memories of the kitchen pad and pencil, five houses later, the current paper and pencil look the same as they always did. Surely it can't be the same pencil The pad is more modern, but the wooden stand is definitely the original one.
"I'm just amazed you still have the same stand for holding the pad and pencil after all these years." I say to her, walking back into the living-room with a sheet of paper and the pencil.
"You still use a pencil. Can't you afford a pen "
My mother replies a little sharply. "It works perfectly well. I've always kept the stand in the kitchen. I never knew when I might want to note down an idea, and I was always in the kitchen in those days."
Immediately I can picture her, hair wild, blue housecoat covered in flour, a wooden spoon in one hand, the pencil in the other, her mouth moving silently. My mother smiles and says, "One day I was cooking and watching baby Pauline, and I had a brilliant（绝妙的）thought, but the stand was empty. One of the children must have taken the paper. So I just picked up the breadboard and wrote it all down on the back." It turned out to be a real breakthrough in solving the mathematical problem I was working on.
This story—which happened before I was born—reminds me how extraordinary my mother was, and is, as a gifted mathematician. I feel embarrassed（惭愧）that I complain about not having enough time to work. Later, when my mother is in the bathroom, I go into her kitchen and turn over the breadboard. Sure enough, on the back of the smallest one, are some penciled marks I recognize as mathematics. Those symbols have traveled unaffected through fifty years, rooted in the soil of a cheap wooden breadboard, invisible（看不到的）exhibits at every meal.
5. What is the author's original opinion about the wooden stand
A. It should be passed on to the next generation.
B. It brings her back to her lonely childhood.
C. It needs to be replaced by a better one.
D. It has great value for the family.
6. Why has the author's mother always kept the notepad and pencil in the kitchen
A. To write down a flash of inspiration. B. To note down maths problems.
C. To list her everyday tasks. D. To leave messages.
7. The author feels embarrassed for ______.
A. giving her mother a lot of trouble
B. not praising her mother
C. not making any progress in her work
D. not making good use of time as her mother did
8. What can be inferred from the last paragraph
A. The family members like traveling.
B. The mother is successful in her field.
C. The marks on the breadboard have disappeared.
D. The author had little time to play when young.
C
The connection between people and plants has long been the subject of scientific research. Recent studies have found positive effects. A study conducted in Youngstown, Ohio, for example, discovered that greener areas of the city experienced less crime（犯罪）. In another, employees（雇员）were shown to be 15% more productive when their workplaces were decorated with houseplants.
The engineers at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) have taken it a step further—changing the actual composition of plants in order to get them to perform diverse, even unusual functions. These include plants that have sensors（探测器）printed onto their leaves to show when they're short of water and a plant that can detect（探测）harmful chemicals in groundwater. "We're thinking about how we can engineer plants to replace functions of the things that we use every day," explained Michael Strano, a professor of chemical engineering at MIT.
One of his latest projects has been to make plants glow（发光）in experiments using some common vegetables. Strano's team found that they could create a faint light for three-and-a-half hours. The light, about one-thousandth of the amount needed to read by, is just a start. The technology, Strano said, could one day be used to light the rooms or even to turn trees into self-powered street lamps.
In the future, the team hopes to develop a version of the technology that can be sprayed onto plant leaves in a one-off treatment that would last the plant's lifetime. The engineers are also trying to develop an on-and-off "switch" where the glow would fade（逐渐消失）when exposed to daylight.
Lighting accounts for about 7% of the total electricity used in the US. Since lighting is often far removed from the power source—such as the distance from a power plant to street lamps on a remote highway—a lot of energy is lost during transmission（传输）. Glowing plants could reduce this distance and therefore help save energy.
9. What is the first paragraph mainly about
A. A big fall in crime rates. B. Benefits from green plants.
C. A new study of different plants. D. Employees from various workplaces.
10. What is the function of the sensors printed on plant leaves by MIT engineers
A. To make the life of plants longer. B. To change compositions of plants.
C. To test chemicals in plants. D. To detect plants' lack of water.
11. What might we expect of glowing plants in the future
A. They might help reduce energy use.
B. They could take the place of power plants.
C. They may transmit electricity to the home.
D. They will speed up energy production.
D
Popularization has in some cases changed the original meaning of emotional intelligence. Many people now misunderstand emotional intelligence as almost everything desirable in a person's makeup that cannot be measured by an IQ test, such as character, motivation, confidence, mental stability, optimism and "people skills." Research has shown that emotional skills may contribute to some of these qualities, but most of them move far beyond skill-based emotional intelligence.
We prefer to describe emotional intelligence as a specific set of skills that can be used for either good or bad purposes. The ability to accurately understand how others are feeling may be used by a doctor to find how best to help her patients, while a cheater might use it to control potential victims（受害者）. Being emotionally intelligent does not necessarily make one a moral person.
Although popular beliefs regarding emotional intelligence run far ahead of what research can reasonably support, the overall effects of the publicity have been more beneficial than harmful. The most positive aspect of this popularization is a new and much needed emphasis（重视）on emotion by employers, educators and others interested in promoting social well-being. The popularization of emotional intelligence has helped both the public and researchers re-evaluate the functionality of emotions and how they serve people adaptively in everyday life.
Although the continuing popular appeal（吸引力）of emotional intelligence is desirable, we hope that such attention will excite a greater interest in the scientific and scholarly study of emotion. It is our hope that in coming decades, advances in science will offer new perspectives（视角）from which to study how people manage their lives. Emotional intelligence, with its focus on both head and heart, may serve to point us in the right direction.
12. What is a common misunderstanding of emotional intelligence
A. It helps to exercise a person's mind.
B. It can be measured by an IQ test.
C. It refers to a person's positive qualities.
D. It includes a set of emotional skills.
13. What is the author's attitude to the popularization of emotional intelligence
A. Unbearable. B. Doubtful.
C. Unclear. D. Supportive.
14. What does the last paragraph mainly talk about concerning emotional intelligence
A. Expectations for future studies. B. Scientists with new perspectives.
C. Its appeal to the public. D. Its practical application.

第三部分：书面表达（共两节，32分）
第一节(共4小题;第45、46题各2分,第47题3分,第48题5分,共12分)
阅读下面短文,根据题目要求用英文回答问题。请在答题卡指定区域作答。
Herman Cruse, a school bus driver from New Jersey, has been with Middle Township Public Schools for the past nine years. He believes bus drivers are the eyes and ears of students when they're away from home and they have a gift to know what kids are feeling.
During one morning ride, Cruse noticed a kindergartner seemed a little sad. When Cruse asked him what was wrong, the boy explained that he wasn't able to complete his reading assignment（任务）because his parents were busy with his four siblings（兄弟姐妹）. An idea suddenly crossed Cruse's mind. "Listen, if you don't mind, I'd like to come to the school and read with you," he said.
After receiving permission from the boy's teacher, Alex Bakley, Cruse showed up at her classroom the following week. When he walked in, the boy shouted proudly, "Hey, that's my bus driver!" They went into a quiet corner and began reading together. Later, a second student wanted to read with him, then a third. All the kids went to the teacher asking, "Can I read with Mr. Herman "
Cruse now volunteers to help kindergarten students with reading two days a week, and on a third day, he instructs the school's first-and second-graders, after dropping the kids off at school, of course. Every child looks up to Cruse, both on and off the school bus. "Herman is super positive and he's a bright light at our school who makes every child feel loved and heard," said Bakley.
For Cruse, what started out as a way to kill time has now developed into a way to make a difference in the heart of a child. He used to go to the gym or library after delivering students to schools. It wasn't until he offered to help the boy on the bus that he realized there was something more rewarding（值得的）he could be doing. It's a joy for him to see the kids get excited when they learn to sound out words. He loves how reading opens up a new world for them.
45. Why did the boy on the bus look a little upset
46. Why does Cruse think his voluntary work is rewarding according to the last paragraph
47. Please decide which part is false in the following statement, then underline it and explain why.
Cruse came into the classroom to read with the boy after receiving the teacher's permission, but the other children didn't seem to welcome it.
48. Who's "a bright light" in your life Please explain in your own words. (In about 40 words)

Dear Jim,
How is everything
I'm so glad you're interested in Chinese calligraphy. Chinese calligraphy has developed along with China's civilisation. It is not only a beautiful art form but also a means of showing the character of "the man behind the brush". In our school' s calligraphy club, we practice basic strokes and study famous masterpieces. We also create our own works, sometimes even holding exhibitions.
Since joining the club, I've not only improved my brushwork but also had a better understanding of Chinese culture. Calligraphy requires patience and concentration, which has helped me stay focused during my studies.
Would you like to see some of my calligraphy pieces I'd be happy to share photos!
Yours,
Li Hua
