Its other concerns are love, getting on with others, being persistent and courageous and trying to deal with doubts, troubles and worries. As the book moves to a close, James’ swimming coach says to him: “You are not like a kid obeying instructions any more. You are diving like a young man who knows where he is going.” ‎ The characters: James is the hero of the story. He is a championship diver, and has a comfortable life with his foster parents(养父母). Yet he also has the qualities to take him on a long journey to find his birth mother. The other characters in The Snake-Stone, James’ parents, his diving instructor, best friend, the villagers, people he meets on his journey, are pictured realistically.‎ The turning point: The turning point in the story comes while James’ foster parents are away in London, and he wonders about the identity of his birth mother. The only clue he has is a fossil, “the snake stone” which she left behind along with a note on which she had written: “Take good care of Sammie.” It was written on a torn envelope with parts of an address still there.‎ The journey: Instead of going to London, James decides to find his birth mother. With help from his geography teacher, James sets out for the remote country village where his mother might be found. James has painful, challenging, but also humorous and happy travels. The mother he finally meets, Anne, has a minor yet powerful voice in the novel. He comes to understand why she left him at a stranger’s door fifteen years before. Although the meeting is not long, it leaves him with a feeling of completeness. As a journey of self-discovery, The Snake-Stone also provides its readers with a happy ending. Its hero says, on returning to his foster parents, “I was home.”‎ ‎21. What is the main theme of the novel?‎ A. Life with foster parents. B. Life in the world of diving.‎ C. A journey of self-discovery. D. A travel around the country.‎ ‎22. What do the coach’s words in Paragraph 2 suggest?‎ A. James is a successful diver. B. James is an independent young man.‎ C. James is an outgoing young man. D. James is a hopeful swimmer.‎ ‎23. The snake stone in the novel is .‎ A. a stone with an address on it B. a fossil left by the foster parents C. a gift from the swimming coach D. a clue left by the birth mother B Some people believe that a Robin Hood is at work, others that a wealthy person simply wants to distribute his or her fortune before dying. But the donator who started sending envelopes with cash to deserving causes, accompanied by an article from the local paper, has made a northern German city believe in fairytales(童话).‎ The first envelope was sent to a victim support group. It contained €10,000 with a cutting from the Braunschtveiger Zeitung about how the group supported a woman who was robbed of her handbag; similar plain white anonymous(匿名) envelopes, each containing €10,000, then arrived at a kindergarten and a church.‎ The envelopes keep coming, and so far at least €190,000 has been distributed. Last month, one of them was sent to the newspaper’s own office. It came after a story it published about Tom, a 14-year-old boy who was severely disabled in a swimming accident. The receptionist at the Braunschweiger Zeitung opened an anonymous white envelope to find 20 notes of €500 inside, with a copy of the article. The name of the family was underlined.‎ ‎“I was driving when I heard the news,” Claudia Neumann, the boy’s mother, told DerSpiegel magazine. “I had to park on the side of the road; I was speechless.”‎ The money will be used to make the entrance to their house wheelchair-accessible, and for a course of treatment that their insurance company refused to pay for.‎ ‎“For someone to act so selflessly, for this to happen in such a society in which everyone thinks of himself, was astonishing,” Mrs. Neumann said. Her family wonder whether the donator is a Robin Hood character, taking from banks to give to the needy.‎ Henning Noske, the editor of the Braunschweiger Zeitung, said: “Maybe it is an old person who is about to die. We just do not know. ” However, he has told his reporters not to look for the city’s hero, for fear that discovery may stop the donations.‎ 24. The Braunschweiger Zeitung is the name of .‎ A. a church B. a bank C. a newspaper D. a magazine ‎25. Which of the following is TRUE about the donation to Tom?‎ A. The donation amounted to €190,000.‎ B. The donation was sent directly to his house.‎ C. The money will be used for his education.‎ D. His mother felt astonished at the donation.‎ ‎26. It can be inferred from the passage that .‎ A. the donator is a rich old man B. the donation will continue to come C. the donation comes from the newspaper D. the donator will soon be found out ‎27. What would be the best title for the passage?‎ A. Money Is Raised by the Newspaper B. Newspaper Distributes Money to C. Unknown Hero Spreads Love in Envelopes D. Robin Hood Returns to the City C ‎“What kind of rubbish are you?” This question might normally cause anger, but in Shanghai it has brought about weary groans over the past week. On July 1st, the city introduced strict trash-sorting regulations that are expected to be used as a model for our country. Residents must divide their waste into four separate categories and toss it into specific public bins. They must do so at scheduled times, when monitors are present to ensure compliance(服从) and to inquire into the nature of one’s rubbish.‎ Violators face the prospect of fines and worse. They could be hit with fines of up to 200 yuan($29). For repeat violators, the city can add black marks to their credit records, making it harder for them to obtain bank loans or even buy train tickets.‎ Shanghai authorities are responding to an obvious environmental problem. It generates 9 million tons of garbage a year, more than London’s annual output and rising quickly. But like other cities in China, it lacks a recycling system. Instead, it has relied on trash pickers to sift through the waste, plucking out whatever can be reused. This has limits. As people get wealthier, fewer of them want to do such dirty work. The waste, meanwhile, just keeps piling up. China churns out 80 billion pairs of disposable chopsticks a year.‎ Many residents appear to support the idea of recycling in general but are frustrated by the details. Rubbish must be divided according to whether it is food, recyclable, dry or hazardous(有害的), the distinctions among which can be confusing, though there are apps to help work it out. Some have complained about the rules surrounding food waste. They must put it straight in the required public bin, forcing them to tear open plastic bags and toss it by hand. Most vexing(令人烦恼的) are the short windows for dumping trash, typically a couple of hours, morning and evening. Along with the monitors at the bins, this means that people go at around the same time and can keep an eye on what is being thrown out; no one wants to look bad.‎ ‎28. What’s the purpose of the first paragraph?‎ A. To introduce the trash-sorting regulations.‎ B. To explain the four categories of the waste.‎ C. To present residents’ complaints about trash dividing.‎ D. To show the goal of trash-sorting regulations.‎ ‎29. What is the main direct environmental problem in Shanghai?‎ A. The massive traffic.‎ B. The increasing garbage.‎ C. Lack of a recycling system.‎ D. Lack of trash pickers.‎ ‎30. What makes the residents upset most about the rules?‎ A. Complex distinction among the four categories of trash.‎ B. Short scheduled time for tossing the trash.‎ C. Being observed by monitors when throwing the garbage.‎ D. Being fined when blamed due to improper behavior.‎ ‎31. What can be the best title for the text?‎ A. A Restart of Trash-sorting B. A Great Change in Tackling Litter C. A New Era of Garbage Classification D. A Craze for Learning Waste Sorting D ‎“Heaven is where the police are English, the cooks are French, the mechanics are German, the lovers are Italian and everything is organized by the Swiss. Hell(地狱) is where the police are German, the cooks are English, the mechanics are French, the lovers are Swiss, and everything is organized by the Italians.”‎ Obviously the national stereotypes(模式化的思想) in this old joke are generalizations(普遍化), but such stereotypes are often said to “exist for a reason”. Is there actually a sliver(裂片) of truth in them? Not likely, an international research team now says.‎ ‎“National and cultural stereotypes do play an important role in how people see themselves and others, and being aware that these are not dependable is a useful thing,” said study author Robert McCrae of the National Institute on Aging. “These are in fact unfounded stereotypes. They don’t come from looking around you,” McCrae said.‎ If national stereotypes aren’t rooted in real experiences, then where do they come from? One possibility is that they reflect national values, which may become known from historical events. For example, many historians have argued that the spirit of American individualism has its origins in the experiences of the pioneers on the Old West.‎ Social scientists such as psychologist Richard Robins have given several other possible explanations for stereotypes and why they may be incorrect. Robins notes that some stereotypes may have been correct at one point in history and then remained unchanged while the culture changed.‎ We may be “hard-wired”, to some degree, to keep incorrect stereotypes, since we are less likely to notice and remember information that is different from our stereotypes. Generally, according to Robins, when we meet people who are different from our stereotypes, we see them as unique individuals rather than typical national or cultural groups.‎ ‎32. The stereotype about Italians is ______.‎ A. romantic but disorganized B. friendly and good-tempered C. dreamy and impractical D. strict but thoughtful ‎33. National stereotypes are not always correct because______.‎ A. what was true in the past may not be true at present B. they are formed by individual historians C. generalizations are made through personal experience D. people tend to have false idea about other culture ‎34. According to the research team led by McCrae, national stereotypes are ______.‎ A. interesting B. harmful C. unreliable D. humorous ‎35. The underlined word “hard-wired” in the last paragraph probably means______.‎ A. forgetful B. anxious C. helpless D. fixed 第二节 (共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分)‎ 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。‎ You often find somebody who works around you complaining all the time, don’t you? ___36___ About 70% of Americans say being around nonstop complainers sometimes has a bad influence on them. Luckily, here are 4 tips to help form positive patterns.‎ ‎1. Self-awareness When a negative thought pops into your mind, immediately correct it. Instead of telling yourself “That’s a nice shirt, but I can’t afford it,” change the message to “That will look great with my black pants when I can afford it.” ____37____‎ Of course, everyone complains sometimes. But the less frequently you complain, the better you will feel.‎ ‎2. Distance yourself ‎___38___ Excuse yourself and go somewhere quiet, somewhere outdoors in the fresh air. Think of something pleasant before returning. You have to take this seriously because negative people can and will pull you into the quicksand(困境).‎ ‎3. Don’t try to change complainers If you find yourself trapped in a group of complainers in a meeting or at a social event, simply choose silence. Let their words bounce(弹起) off you while you think of something else. Attempting to stop the complaining can make you a target. ____39____ If someone says, “I hate Mondays, weekends are too short,” try to think, “I’m glad I rested up over the weekend, so I’m ready to make some improvement on that big project.”‎ ‎___40___‎ When someone is shouting at you angrily, throw the responsibility back at them by asking, “So what do you intend to do about it?” In most cases, complainers don’t really want a solution. They just want to speak them out. If you make them aware that they themselves have to find the solutions, they will leave you ‎ alone and find someone else to complain to. If so, you will be happy.‎ A. Find solutions B. Change responsibility C. You have got a lot of company.‎ D. By doing this, it will lead to positive behaviors.‎ E. But you can redirect the discussion in your own mind.‎ F. You will never know what they are going to talk about.‎ G. Whenever possible, escape from negative conversations.‎ 第三部分 英语知识运用（共两节，满分45分）‎ 第一节 完形填空（共20小题；每小题1.5分，满分30分）‎ 阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。‎ Two years ago, Shirley, wife, mother and doctor, found herself worn out.
