Cows had stopped giving milk.The streams were tong gone back into the earth.If we didn’t see some rain soon we would lose everything.‎ I was in the kitchen making lunch for my husband and his brothers when I saw my six-year old son,Billy, walking toward the woods.He was obviously walking with a great effort...trying to be as still as possible.Minutes after he disappeared into the woods,he came running out again,toward the house.‎ Moments later,however,he was once again walking in that slow purposeful long step toward the woods.This activity went on for over an hour: walking cautiously to the woods,then running back to the house.Finally,my curiosity got the best of me.I crept out of the house and followed him on his journey.‎ He was cupping both hands in front of him as he walked;being very careful not to spill the water he held in them.Branches and thorns slapped his little face but he did not try to avoid them.He had a much greater purpose.As I leaned in to spy on him,I saw the most amazing site.‎ Several large deer appeared threatening in front of him.But Billy walked right up to them.I almost screamed for him to get away.And I saw a baby deer lying on the ground,obviously suffering from heavy loss of water and heat exhaustion,lift its head with great effort to lap up the water cupped in my beautiful boy’s hand.‎ I stood on the edge of the woods watching the most beautiful heart I have ever known working so hard to save a life.As the tears that rolled down my face began to hit the ground,they were suddenly joined by other drops...and more drops...and more.I looked up at the sky.It was as if God,Himself,was weeping with pride.‎ ‎21.Why did the author follow her son?‎ A.Because there might be danger. B.Because her son was doing a good deed.‎ C.Because she intended to help. D.Because she was curious.‎ ‎22.Which of the following statements is Not True according to the passage?‎ A.Rain Was in great need. B.Billy carried water with his small hands.‎ C.There were few trees in the woods. D.Billy walked into the woods and then returned over and over again.‎ ‎23.Which is the correct order of the development of the story?‎ ‎①The author was moved to tears. ② Billy fed the water to the baby deer.‎ ‎③ Billy walked towards the large deer. ④It began to rain.‎ ‎⑤ The author followed Billy into the woods.‎ A.③②⑤①④ B.⑤③②①④ C.④①③②⑤ D.⑤②①③④‎ ‎24.At the end of the story,the author might experience different feelings Except that_____.‎ A.Billy was a pride B.God was touched by Billy's activity C.the rain should have dropped earlier D.it was worthwhile to have given birth to Billy B Today,in many places,like restaurants and hotels,people use Wechat or other kinds of payment to pay for their bills.So some scholars say that the wallet is heading for extinction.It will die off with the generation who read printed newspaper.The kind of shopping where you hand over notes and count out change in return now happens only in small retail（零售）counters,like buying a bar of chocolate or a pint of milk from a comer shop.At the shops where you spend any real money,that money is increasingly abstract.At the most famous retail store Victoria Beckham on Dover Street,you don't have to stand at any kind of cash register when you decide to pay.The staff are equipped with iPads to take your payment while you relax on a sofa.‎ Wherever you go,you can get an excellent service,if you have the money.But across ‎ society,the abstraction of the idea of cash makes me uneasy.Maybe I'm just old-fashioned.But earning money isn't quick or easy for most of us. Isn't it a bit weird（怪异的）in hat spending it should happen in half a blink of an eye?‎ But I’ll leave the economics to the experts.What bothers me about the death of the wallet is the change it reflects in our physical environment.The opposite of a wallet is a smart phone or an iPad.When we pay for anything, instead of digging through pieces of paper and peering into comers in a wallet,what we need to do is to move our fingers left and right.Show your wallet,if you still have one.It may not be here much longer.‎ ‎25.According to the text,customers can pay their bills in big modern stores.‎ A.secretly B.separately C.electronically D.mentally ‎26.What makes the writer feel uncomfortable nowadays?‎ A.Saving money is out of date. B.money is so fast and easy.‎ C.Earning money is getting more difficult. D.The plea.Spending sure of spending money is fading.‎ ‎27.The writer implies that_______.‎ A.he likes the nature of his wallet ‎ B.he is against technological progress C.he feels insecure about the changes of the modern payment D.he wants to return to the old traditions of the old society C Have you ever run into a careless cell phone user on the street?Perhaps they were busy talking,testing or checking updates on WeChat without looking at what was going on around them.As the number of this new “species” of human has kept rising, they have been given a new name－phubbers（低头族）.‎ Recently,a cartoon created by students from China Central Academy of Fine Arts put this group of people under the spotlight.In the short film,phubbers with various social identities bury themselves in their phones.A doctor plays with his cell phone while letting his patient die,a pretty woman takes selfie（自拍照）in front of a car accident site, and a father loses his child without knowing about it while using his mobile phone.A chain of similar events eventually leads to the ‎ destruction of the world.‎ Although the ending sounds overstated the damage phubbing can bring is real.Your health is the first to bear the effect and result of it.“Constantly bending your head to check your cell phone could damage your neck,”Guangming Daily quoted doctors as saying,“the neck is like a rope that breaks after longterm stretching.”Also,staring at cell phones for long periods of time will damage your eyesight gradually,according to the report.‎ But that’s not all.Being a phubber could also damage your social skills and drive you away from your friends and family.At reunions with family or friends,many people tend to stick to their cell phones while others are chatting happily with each other and this creates a strange atmosphere, Beijing Evening News reported.‎ It can also cost you your life.There have been lots of reports on phubbers who fell to their death, suffered accidents,and were robbed of their cell phones in broad daylight.‎ ‎28.For what purpose does the author give the example of a cartoon in Para.2?‎ A.To inform people of the bad effects of phubbing.‎ B.To advertise the cartoon made by students.‎ C.To indicate the world will finally be destroyed by phubbers.‎ D.To warn doctors against using cell phones while treating patients.‎ ‎29.Which of the following is NOT a risk a phubber may have?‎ A.His social skills could be affected. B.His neck and eyesight will be gradually harmed.‎ C.He will cause the destruction of the world. D.He might get separated from his friends and family.‎ ‎30.Which of the following may be the author’s attitude towards phubbing?‎ A.Supportive. B.Opposed. C.Optimistic. D.Objective.‎ ‎31.What may the passage talk about next?‎ A.Advice on how to use a cell phone. B.People addicted to phubbing.‎ C.Measures to reduce the risks of phubbing. D.Consequences of phubbing.‎ D When John was growing up,other kids felt sorry for him.His parents always had him weeding the garden, carrying out the garbage and delivering newspapers.But when John reached ‎ adulthood,he was better off than his childhood playmates.He had more job satisfaction,a better marriage and was healthier.Most of all,he was happier.Far happier. ‎ These are the findings of a 40-year study that followed the lives of 456 teenage bays from Boston.The study showed that those who had worked as boys enjoyed happier and more productive lives than those who had not."Boys who worked in the home or community gained competence（能力）and came to feel they were worthwhile members of society,"said George Vaillant,the psychologist（心理学家）who made the discovery."And because they felt good about themselves,others felt good about them."‎ Vaillant's study followed these males in great detail.Interviews were repeated at ages 25,31 and 47.Under Vaillant,the researchers compared the men's mental-health scores with their boyhood-activity scores.Points were awarded for part-time jobs,housework,effort in school,and ability to deal with problems.‎ The link between what the men had done as boys and how they turned out as adults was surprisingly sharp. Those who had done the most boyhood activities were twice as likely to have warm relations with a wide variety of people,five times as likely to be well paid and 16 times less likely to have been unemployed.The researchers also round that IQ and family social and economic class made no real difference in how the boys turned out.‎ Working—at any age—is important.Childhood activities help a child develop responsibility,independence, confidence and competence—the underpinnings（基础）of emotional health.They also help him understand that people must cooperate and work toward common goals.The most competent adults are those who know how to do this.Yet work isn't everything.As Tolstoy once said,"One can live magnificently in this world if one knows how to work and how to love,to work for the person one loves and to love one's work."‎ ‎32. What do we know about John?‎ A.He enjoyed his career and marriage. B.He had few childhood playmates.‎ C.He received little love from his family. D.He was envied by others in his childhood.‎ ‎33.Vaillant's words in Paragraph 2 serve as .‎ A.a description of personal values and social values B.an analysis of how work was related to competence C.an example for parents' expectations of their children D.an explanation why some boys grew into happy men ‎34.What does the underlined word "sharp" probably mean in Paragraph 4?‎ A.Quick to react. B.Having a thin edge. C.Clear and definite. D.sudden and rapid.‎ ‎35.What can be inferred from the last paragraph?‎ A.Competent adults know more about love than work. B.Emotional health is essential to a wonderful adult life.‎ C.Love brings more joy to people than work does. D.Independence is the key to one's success.‎ 第二节，七选五 Building Trust in: Relationship Again Trust is a learned behavior that we gain from past experiences._36_Trust is a risk.But you can't be successful when there's a lack of trust in a relationship that results from an action where the wrongdoer takes no responsibility to fix the mistake.‎ Unfortunately,we've all been victims of betrayal.Whether we've been stolen from,lied to,misled,or cheated on, there are different levels of losing trust.Sometimes people simply can't trust anymore._37_It's understandable,but if you're willing to build trust in a relationship again,we have some steps you can take to get you there.‎ ‎_38_Having confidence in yourself will help you make better choices because you can see what the best outcome would be for your well-being.‎ ‎_39_If you've been betrayed,you are the victim of your circumstance.But there's a difference between being a victim and living with a "victim mentality".At some point in all of our lives,we'll have our trust tested or violated.‎ You didn't lose "everything".Once trust is lost,what is left?Instead of looking at the situation from this hopeless angle,look at everything you still have and be thankful for all of the good in your life._40_Instead,it's a healthy way to work through the experience to allow room for positive growth and forgiveness.‎ A.Learn to really trust yourself.‎ B.It is putting confidence in someone.‎ C.Stop regarding yourself as the victim.‎ D.Remember that you can expect the best in return.‎ E.They've been too badly hurt and they can't bear to let it happen again.‎ F.This knowledge carries over in their attitude toward their future relationships.‎ G.Seeing the positive side of things doesn't mean you're ignoring what happened.‎ 第三部分 第一节 完形填空（每空1.5分，满分30分）‎ My first job was in what they call the city center.The_41_was large,dark and old_42_the physics lecture room was on the second floor._43_,it wasn't a lecture room at all,it was an ordinary room,but it had "LECTURE ROOM" on the_44_.The students were sixteen or seventeen years old,_45_several years younger than me._46_,some of them looked and acted_47_older than me sometimes.‎ The room was directly_48_the street,and had the window looking out over the street and many houses.One day, I was_49_some work on the blackboard when I heard a sudden change in the noise behind me.There was a man standing in the room with_50_an apple in his hand.He looked_51_.‎ ‎“Who threw this?”he asked,looking round the class.‎ ‎“I beg your pardon?”I said.“Was this the school inspector（督学）?_52_threw this apple out of the window,”he said.“It_53_on my car.”‎ ‎“Who threw an apple out of the window?.”I_54_to the class.There was no answer.‎ ‎“I_55_the fellow who threw this.”said the man.“I_56_outside for you.”And then he left,slamming the door.‎ ‎_57_was silence and I continued with the lesson.At the end of every lesson,a bell rang,usually the class were all _58_before it finished ringing,leaving me saying "That's all for today" to an empty_59_.‎ This time,when the bell went for the end of the lesson,no one_60_.“That’s all for today,”I said.‎ ‎“You go first,sir.”said one of the boys.It made a nice change,being first out.‎ ‎41.A.room B.building C.floor D.city ‎42.At and B.as C.so D.but ‎43.A.Happily B.Luckily C.Properly D.Actually ‎44.A.floor B.ground C.door D.window ‎45.A.over B.only C.up D.almost ‎46.A.In fact B.In the end C.After all D.As a result ‎ ‎47.A.more B.less C.very D.even ‎48.A.on B.above C.below D.in ‎49.A.getting B.making C.taking D.putting ‎50.A.hardly B.almost C.half D.such ‎51.A.angry B.kind C.sorry D.happy ‎52.A.Anyone B.One C.Who D.Someone ‎53.A.hit B.fell C.landed D.arrived ‎54.A.asked B.said C.talked D.told ‎55.A.hate B.find C.get D.want ‎56.A.will be waiting B.have waited C.have been waiting D.wait ‎57.A.It B.There C.This D.That ‎58.A.walked B.left C.gone D.ended ‎59.A.lesson B.class C.room D.lecture ‎60.A.heard B.finished C.spoke D.moved 第二节 语法填空（共10小题；每小题1.5分，满分15分）‎ 阅读下面材科，在空白处填入适当的内容（每空1词）或括号内单词的正确形式。‎ A man got lost while driving through a country.As he tried to read a map,he drove off the road into a ditch（沟渠）_61_(luckily).Though he wasn't injured,his car was stuck deep in the mud（泥）.So the man had got to walk to _62_nearby farm to ask for help.‎ ‎“Warwick can get your car out of that ditch,”said the farmer,_63_(point) to an old mule（骡）.The man looked m the weak mule and the farmer_64_just stood there repeating."Yep,old Warwick can do the job."The man thought he had nothing to lose.Therefore,_65_took the old man and Warwick to the ditch.‎ The farmer hitched（套住）the mule to the car and_66_(shout),"Pull,Fred!Full,Jack!Pull,Ted!Pull,Warwick!"
