四、阅读理解
A
Growing up in America as a child of first-generation Chinese immigrants, I was used to living in two worlds. But as I grew older, the Chinese side faded away, inch by inch. While I happily accepted the bills tucked in red envelopes that adults gave to children for Lunar New Year and consumed my weight in mooncakes during the Mid-Autumn Festival, I didn’t feel connected to the culture.
Before my children were born I had already decided that I would teach them Mandarin (普通话). I felt that they ought to be able to speak the language of their grandparents, the first language their mother encountered.
Parenting books advised narrating your actions while with your baby, so I started digging out long-buried words: “ball”, “eat”, “sleep”, “play”. However, as this exercise continued, the gaps in my Mandarin became more and more obvious. One morning, when my daughter asked “What is the word for ‘arm’ ” I panicked. Had I already reached the boundaries of my knowledge
Luckily, these days the ready availability of Chinese language media — from books to television shows to music — is a much-needed boon to parents like me: second-generation immigrants who want to pass the language on to their children.
The first time I stepped into the local library in my Bay Area hometown, I was amazed to find a well-stocked Chinese section in the children’s wing. The tale of the Monkey King and the legend of Chang’e immediately caught my daughter’s imagination.
When I see my son converse with his grandfather in Mandarin or when my daughter insists on fish for Lunar New Year, the time spent reading all those books closely feels well-spent.
My youngest child recited Li Bai’s “Quiet Night Thoughts” for the Moon Festival performance at his preschool last fall. For generations of Chinese children, it’s the first piece of literature they memorize. It’s performed for all occasions, but most often for the Moon Festival. Its four lines describe how the glow of the full moon reminds the poet of his distant home.
Decades ago, my Chinese teacher explained to me how the steadfast (坚定不移的) moon connects all those who seek its light, no matter how far apart they are. So, too, does language. It influences culture and history and memory, and connects future generations to past ones.
Before my bed the bright moon’s glow
Seems like frost on the ground
Raising my head, I gaze at the moon
Lowering my head, I think of home
My son’s voice rang out with confidence and his arms swept up to indicate the moon above. Joy and wonder lit up my father’s face as he listened to the familiar verses from the mouth of his grandson: verses that had been spoken by my father and my grandparents when they were students in China, and by countless boys and girls before that.
36. We can learn from the first paragraph that the author ________.
A．was brought up in an all-English environment
B．once lost her sense of belonging to Chinese culture
C．was deeply attracted by Chinese culture when she was a child
D．preferred Lunar New Year and the Mid-Autumn Festival to any other festival
37. According to the article, how did the author teach her children Mandarin
①By sending them to a Chinese school in the Bay Area.
②By bringing them to the local library to read Chinese books.
③By speaking the words of her actions in Mandarin while with them.
④By making use of Chinese language media, such as books, television shows and music.
A．①②③
B．①②④
C．①③④
D．②③④
38. According to the article, when she realized that her children were very interested in Chinese culture, the author ________.
A．felt reconnected to Chinese culture
B．was full of hope for the inheritance of Chinese culture
C．thought of her own experience of learning Chinese as a child

39. What’s the main idea of this article

Movie makers constantly seek new ways to draw people into theaters. Over the years, they’ve added sound and color, widescreen formats, and advanced computer-generated imagery to enhance the movie-going experience. Many special effects started as gimmicks (噱头) but have become essential components of big-budget films, while others had more temporary appeal.
One peculiar gimmick was the effort to add odors (气味) to movies. Several serious attempts were made to enhance films with odors. In 1959, Behind the Great Wall used 50 odors through a theater’s air-conditioning system. In 1969, producer Mike Todd Jr. introduced Smell-O-Vision for Scent of a Mystery, releasing scents like pipe smoke and food to each seat. The film failed, and Smell-O-Vision disappeared from the industry.
Another filmmaker, William Castle, employed various inexpensive gimmicks to attract audiences to his low-budget horror films. For Macabre (1963), he offered $1,000 life insurance policies in case viewers died of fright. In Thirteen Ghosts, he used “Illusion-O,” providing handheld ghost glasses that allowed viewers to see or remove the ghosts. Although these gimmicks were only marginally successful and often caused more laughter than screams, Castle’s movies were entertaining and profitable. Thirteen Ghosts was even remade in 2001.
The 1975 movie Earthquake introduced Sensurround Sound, promising sound powerful enough to “crack ribs”. This effect was achieved using large subwoofer speakers that emitted powerful vibrations (震动). However, the vibrations disturbed audiences in neighbouring theaters, leading most theater owners to abandon Sensurround. Only three more films — Midway (1976), Rollercoaster (1977), and Battlestar Galactica (1978) featured the effect.
The most famous special effect is 3-D. Studios experimented with three-dimensional photography as early as 1922, but the first hit 3-D movie was House of Wax in 1953. This effect requires special glasses to provide each eye with a slightly different image, creating a sense of depth. Although dozens of 3-D movies were released between 1953 and 1955, technical problems and eyestrain complaints caused the novelty to wear off. For the next 40 years, 3-D films became less common, primarily associated with IMAX releases. However, with improved technology, 3-D has made a comeback. In 2009, a 3-D film made nearly $2.8 billion worldwide, ensuring that more 3-D movies will follow.
Even though some gimmicks failed, others were linked to box office successes. With advancing technology, new gimmicks will continue to emerge, potentially offering even more exciting experiences for moviegoers.
40. What can be learned about William Castle’s gimmicks
A．They scared viewers greatly.
B．They didn’t cost much to make.
C．They didn’t help to attract viewers.
D．They are still seen in today’s movies.
41. What do Smell-O-Vision and Sensurround Sound have in common
A．Neither featured sensory effects.
B．Neither was widely adopted in theaters.
C．Both were created by the same filmmaker.
D．Both involved visual enhancements to movies.
42. Which statement about 3-D movies is true according to the passage
A．3-D technology was mainly used for horror films before 2009.
B．3-D movies were first introduced in the 1970s.
C．3-D movies were popular from the 1950s to the 1990s.
D．The first hit 3-D movie was released in 1953.
43. What is the main idea of the passage
A．The history of movie technology
B．The emergence and decline of 3-D movies.
C．The evolution and impact of gimmicks in movies.
D．The financial success of movies with special effects.
C 六选四
The Best Language for Math
What’s the best language for learning math Hint: You’re not reading it.
Chinese, Japanese and Korean use simpler number words and express math concepts more clearly than English. The language gap is drawing growing attention as confusing English number words have been linked in several studies to weaker counting and arithmetic skill in children in English-speaking countries.
___44___ Among the researchers are Karen Fuson, a professor in the School of Education at Northwestern University, and Li Yeping, an expert on Chinese math education at Texas A&M University.
Chinese has just nine number words, while English has more than two dozen. The trouble starts at “11”. English has a unique word for the number, while Chinese (as well as Japanese and Korean, among other languages) have words that can be translated as “ten-one” — spoken with the “ten” first. ___45___
English number words over 10 don’t as clearly label place values. Number words for the teens reverse the order of the ones and “teens”, making it easy for children to confuse, say, 17 with 71. As a result, children working with English-number words have a harder time doing multi-digit addition and subtraction (减法). ___46___
It also feels more natural for Chinese speakers than for English speakers to use the “make-a-ten” addition and subtraction strategy. When adding two numbers, students break down the numbers into parts and regroup them into tens and ones. For instance, 9 plus 5 becomes 9 plus 1 plus 4. ___47___ Many teachers in America have increased instruction in the make-a-ten method and called for first-graders to use it to add and subtract.
Now, you should feel lucky that you are learning math in China. Thanks to your mother tongue, all math problems just come less confusing and difficult to you!
A．So it’s not easy for English speakers to label place values clearly.
B．The additional mental steps needed to solve problems cause more errors.
C．Differences between Chinese and English, in particular, have been studied for decades.
D．This method is a powerful tool for solving more advanced multi-digit addition and subtraction problems.
E．Different languages indicate different ways of thinking, causing people to solve math problems differently.
F．That makes it easier for children to understand the place value as well as making it clear that the number system is based on units of 10.

六、书面表达范文（立场1：支持父母）
Dear Belle,
I’m sorry to hear you’ve fallen in love with the stray cat but your parents disagree with adopting it. Actually, I totally stand on your parents’ side and hope you can understand their worries.
First of all, stray cats may carry bacteria or viruses, which will threaten your family’s health. Besides, raising a cat takes plenty of time and money. You are busy with high school study, and you cannot afford to take good care of it every day. What’s more, pets need lifelong responsibility, and you may not be ready for it yet.
Instead of keeping the cat at home, you can contact local animal rescue shelters. They will provide professional care for the kitten. You can also visit it in your free time.
Hope you can figure out a better way to help the poor cat.
Yours sincerely,
Ethan
备选范文（立场2：支持Belle）
Dear Belle,
I know you really want to adopt the weak stray cat and I’m on your side. You can talk to your parents patiently and persuade them with reasonable reasons.
You can promise to take full charge of the cat’s daily care, such as feeding and cleaning its litter box after finishing all homework. You can also use your pocket money to pay for cat food and vaccines to reduce parents’ financial burden. In addition, keeping a pet can teach you responsibility and relieve your study pressure.
If your parents still worry about health, you can take the cat to the pet hospital for a full health check first.
Wish you good luck and hope you can bring the lovely cat home soon.
Yours sincerely,
Ethan
