This is New York–style pizza, handmade with care and good ingredients(成份). New branches of Steve’s are opening elsewhere in Miami, all in non-tourist areas.‎ Opening hours: 11am-3am Cattleman’s Steakhouse This place is 20 miles east of the city, but local folks would probably drive 200 miles to eat here. The food is good, and the scenery is even better. Come early and wander around the grounds of Indian Cliffs Ranch, where you’ll see everything from rabbits to buffalo (水牛), then catch the sunset either before or after your meal.‎ Opening hours: 5pm-10pm Absolute Baking & Cafe The screen door is always swinging open at this town hot spot with giant breakfasts. Try the green chili on eggs – it’s made from scratch, as are the organic(有机的) breads. Lunch includes salads, big sandwiches and local grass-fed beef burgers. Don’t miss a square of soft, fresh carrot cake.‎ Opening hours: 7am-2pm Walt’s Wharf Everybody’s favorite for fresh fish (some drive in from LA), Walt’s packs them in on weekends. You can’t make reservations for dinner (though they’re accepted for lunch), but it’s worth the wait for the tree fire–grilled seafood and steaks in ‎ the many-windowed ground floor or upstairs in captain’s chairs.‎ Opening hours: 11am-3:30pm ‎36. The new branches of Steve’s Pizza are mainly intended for _______________.‎ A. New Yorkers  B. tourists C. the locals   D. foreigners ‎37.

The boy walked a long way, and finally came upon a beautiful castle where the wise man lived.  Rather than finding a holy man, though, our hero, on entering the main room of the castle, saw a hive of activity: tradesmen came and went, people were chatting in the corners and a small orchestra was playing soft music. The wise man talked with everyone, and the boy had to wait for two hours before it was his turn. The wise man listened carefully to the boy’s explanation of why he had come, but told him that he didn’t have time just then to explain the secret of happiness. He suggested the boy look around the palace and return in two hours. “Meanwhile, I want to ask you to do something,” said the wise man, handing the boy a teaspoon that held two drops of oil. “As you wander around, carry this spoon with you without allowing the oil to spill”. The boy began to walk up and down stairs in the palace, keeping his eyes fixed on the spoon. After two hours, he returned. “Well,” asked the wise man, “Did you see the Persian tapestries (波斯织锦) hanging in my dining hall? Did you see the garden that it took the master gardener 10 years to ‎ create?” The boy was embarrassed, and replied that he had observed nothing. His only concern had been not to spill the oil. “Then go back and observe the wonderful things of my world,” said the wise man. Then the boy picked up the spoon and returned to his exploration of the palace, this time observing all of the works of art on the ceilings and the walls. He saw the gardens and the mountains all around him. When he returned, he described in detail everything he had seen. “But where are the drops of oil I gave to you?” asked the wise man. Looking down at the spoon he held, the boy saw that the oil was gone. “Well, there is only one piece of advice I can give you,” said the wise man. “The secret of happiness is to see all the wonders of the world and never to forget the drops of oil on the spoon.”  39.When the shopkeeper’s son arrived at the castle, he ______.‎ A．received warm welcome from the wise man B．didn’t expect to see so many people around C．was shown around the palace by the local people D．had already missed his chance to talk to the wise man ‎40.The wise man gave the boy two tasks in order to ______.‎ A．let the boy enjoy his palace and garden B．show him how to observe the wonderful things in the world C．make him learn from his mistakes D．teach him the secret of happiness ‎41.We can infer from the article that “the drops of oil on the spoon” probably refer to ______.‎ A．the beauty of nature B．the fortune a person owns C．the responsibilities of a person D．the great opportunities in life ‎42.Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the article?‎ A．The wise man was satisfied with the way the boy performed the second task B．It took the wise man about 10 years to finish his garden.‎ C．The wise man wasn’t paying much attention to the boy at first.‎ D．The boy took no notice of the surroundings during his first task.‎ C If you could have one superpower, what would it be?‎ Dreaming about whether you would want to read minds, see through walls, or have superhuman strength may sound silly, but it actually gets to the heart of what really matters in your life.‎ Every day in our work, we are inspired by the people we meet doing extraordinary things to improve the world.‎ They have a different kind of superpower that all of us possess: the power to make a difference in the lives of others.‎ We're not saying that everyone needs to contribute their lives to the poor.Your lives are busy enough doing homework, playing sports, making friends, seeking after your dreams.But we do think that you can live a more powerful life when you devote some of your time and energy to something much larger than yourself.Find an issue you are interested in and learn more.Volunteer , or if you can, contribute a little money to a charity.Whatever you do, don't be a bystander.Get involved.You may have the opportunity to make your biggest difference when you're older.But why not start now?‎ Our own experience working together on health, developmentand energy, the last twenty years has been one of the most rewarding parts of our lives.It has changed who we are and continues to fuel our optimism about how much the lives of the poorest people will improve in the years ahead.‎ ‎43．What does the underlined part in Paragraph 2 refer to?‎ A．Your life style. B．Your life value.‎ C．Your trouble in life. D．Your life experience.‎ ‎44．Why does the author say they are inspired every day?‎ A．They possess different kinds of superpowers.‎ B．They have got the power to change the world.‎ C．Some people around them are making the world better.‎ D．There are many powerful people in their life and work.‎ ‎45．What does the author stress in Paragraph 5?‎ A．Learning more and contributing more to a cause.‎ B．Rising above self and acting to help others.‎ C．Working hard to get a bigger opportunity.‎ D．Trying your best to help the poor.‎ ‎46．What can be inferred from the last paragraph?‎ A．The author believes the lives of the poorest will get better.‎ B．Much more progress will be made in the near future.‎ C．The work on health is the most valuable experience.‎ D．People's efforts have been materially rewarded.‎ D ‎ People aren't walking any more——if they can figure out a way to avoid it.‎ I felt superior about this matter until the other day I took my car to mail a small parcel. The journey is a matter of 281 steps. But I used the car. And I wasn't in any hurry, either. I had merely become one more victim of a national sickness: motorosis.‎ It is an illness to which I had thought myself immune, for I was born in the tradition of going to places on my own two legs. At that time, we regarded 25 miles as a good day's walk and the ability to cover such a distance in ten hours as sign of strength and skill. It did not occur to us that walking was a hardship. And the effect was lasting. When I was 45 years old I raced and beat a teenage football player the 168 steps up the Stature of Liberty.‎ Such enterprises today are regarded by many middle-aged persons as bad for the heart. But a well-known British physician, Sir Adolphe Abrahams, pointed out recently that hearts and bodies need proper exercise. A person who avoids exercise is more likely to have illnesses than one who exercises regularly. And walking is an ideal form of exercise—the most familiar and natural of all.‎ It was Henry Thoreau who showed mankind the richness of going on foot. The man walking can learn the trees, flower, insects, birds and animals, the significance of seasons, the very feel of himself as a living creature in a living world. He cannot learn in a car.‎ The car is a convenient means of transport, but we have made it our way of life. Many people don't dare to approach Nature any more; to them the world they were born to enjoy is all threat. To them security is a steelriver thundering on a concrete road. And much of their thinking takes place while waiting for the traffic light to turn green.‎ I say that the green of forests is the mind's best light. And none but the man on foot can evaluate what is basic and everlasting.‎ ‎47．What is the national sickness?‎ A．Walking too much. B．Traveling too much.‎ C．Driving cars too much. D．Climbing stairs too much.‎ ‎48．What was life like when the author was young?‎ A．People usually went around on foot. B．People often walked 25 miles a day.‎ C．People used to climb the Statue of Liberty. D．People considered a ten-hour walk as a hardship.‎ ‎49．The author mentions Henry Thoreau to prove that________.‎ A．middle-aged people like getting back to nature B．walking in nature helps enrich one's mind C．people need regular exercise to keep fit D．going on foot prevents heart disease ‎50．What is the author's intention of writing this passage?‎ A．To tell people to reflect more on life. B．To recommend people to give up driving.‎ C．To advise people to do outdoor activities. D．To encourage people to return to walking.‎ 第二节 （共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）‎ 根据下列短文内容，从文章后的选项中选出能入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。（请将51——55答案填涂在答题卡的71——75小题中）‎ Avoid Internet Addiction ‎ 51 Many people suffer from addiction to the Internet and have a hard time paying attention to the important things around them. How can we prevent ourselves from going online too much?‎ Admit you have an addiction. 52 Realize more and more people in the world are becoming addicted. You are not the only one with this problem. Do not be embarrassed; find others with the same problem and help each other beat it.‎ Limit your computer time. Make sure not to turn it on too many times a week. Before using your computer, decide on a time limit such as 30 minutes. Set the clock and make sure that you get off the computer when the time is up. 53 Try using the computer at the library. You won't be as attracted to look at certain websites ‎ and they do have a limit on how long you can stay online.‎ ‎ 54 So you won't be as attracted to be on the Internet as at home.‎ ‎ 55 Go for a run with a friend or get exercise some other way. Keep up with the local events in your neighborhood. There may be talks, films, concerts. and sports events etc. Find some, as long as it is not on the Internet, and get involved.‎ A．You will be happier if you use the Internet less.‎ B．It is no use avoiding the truth.‎ C．Also，it is a good place to get some good books and magazines to read.‎ D．Get a hobby or an interest.‎ E．Internet addiction affects a lot of people.‎ F．Get your family to remind you if you've been on a long time.‎ G．Try to reduce the amount of time by 5 minutes each time.‎ 第II卷 (非选择题)‎ 注意：将答案写在答题卡上。写在本试卷上无效。‎ 第四部分：英语知识运用(共四节，满分65分)‎ 第一节：语法填空（共10小题；每题1.5分，共15分）‎ 阅读下面材料，在空白处填入适当的内容（1个单词）或括号内单词的正确形式。‎ ‎ Keeping a diary in English is one of the __56__ (effect) ways to improve our English writing ability. ___57___ (compare) with other forms of writing, it is shorter and takes ___58___ (little) time.
