Through the determination of friends, the group has grown bigger and stronger each year. Over the past two years my friend, Alex and I have become the leaders of the club.‎ After only two years of raising money, we have already accumulated over three thousand dollars and almost two thousand food items through various money-raising efforts. For example, each year a 24-hour hunger is planned, resulting in absolutely no consumption (消耗) of food. By taking part in these activities, we put ourselves in the shoes of someone living in poverty.‎ No money raised goes to waste. At the end of each school year, the club members vote to determine where our raised money will be spent and donated. Last year, we bought enough desks, chairs, supplies and textbooks for every student in a Kenyan school. This year, we plan to spend our money helping out families in need in Sierra Leone.‎ Poverty is a worldwide issue affecting the lives of people in not only developing countries, but also first-world countries such as Canada, the United Kingdom and Japan. Living in poverty can lead to hunger, many forms of disease, lack of education, and for millions, death. It does not have to be this way. You too can form a club like the Free The Children Club or you can participate in events outside your school. Get your friends, family, and even your community involved in money-raising for the poor. Do what you can to change the world.‎ ‎21. An annual 24-hour hunger is held to ________.‎ A. save food for hungry people. B. call on people not to waste food.‎ C. draw people’s attention to the club. D. help understand the poor people better ‎22. How to spend the raised money is based on the opinion of ________.‎ A. the people who donated it B. the leaders of the club C. the majority of the club D. the people who raised it ‎23. The author’s purpose in writing this passage is to________.‎ A. to introduce the Free The Children Club.‎ B. to encourage people to change the world.‎ C. to praise the behavior of the club members.‎ D. to show how poverty is affecting the world.‎ B Comparing ourselves with others isn’t a recent phenomenon—it’s part of our culture* As soon as we’re able to form our own thoughts and opinions, we start comparing. Who’s taller? Who’s better at sports? Who has more friends?‎ Unlike other childish habits, the urge to measure up (攀比) doesn’t ever really go away. In ‎ fact, it only increases when we become teens. “At a younger age, I found myself wanting to be cool and wondering why I wasn’t that cool,” said a junior student Michael Torres. “So I began doing what they did in order to fit in with my own friends.”‎ We are flooded with the message that we should compare ourselves with others. Magazines, advertisements, stores—it becomes all about what other people have or what they’ve achieved. Social media adds another layer to the problem. Facebook, Twitter and QQ offer a constant stream of updates about the people around us. She got accepted to Harvard! He bought the brand new Nikes! They’re going to get married!‎ ‎“If I go on Facebook or Twitter and read about how wonderful everyone else is, I’m not feeling good about myself. It’s going to make me feel worse, said Mike Robbins, a senior student. “I try not to let things like that affect me, but in the modem world of technology, it’s hard not to take notice of what others are doing, and sometimes you want to be just like them,”‎ Before you get caught up in the comparison game, keep in mind one very important detail: When it comes to social media, we often present only the things we want people to see—the good fortunes, happy moments, delicious desserts and best smiles.‎ The deeper question is: Are people really posting things on social media that are true or are they simply doing it to present something to other people? It’s what we do in our culture: “Look! How great I am!”，“Look! How smart I am!” or “Look! How happy I am!”. And sometimes that’s true, but in a lot of cases, it’s not.‎ While comparing ourselves to others can inspire us to get ahead and work harder, it can also drive us crazy. Next time you find yourself wondering if you measure up, remember this: What we have is not a measure of who we are. We already have worth as an individual when we’re born. Everything else is what people think of us.‎ ‎24. When do we start to compare ourselves with others?‎ A. When we go to junior schools. B. When we were born into the world.‎ C. When we have Facebook or Tweeter. D. When we have thoughts and opinions.‎ ‎25. According to the author, why would people like to post wonderful things on social media?‎ A. To show off their lives. B. To get advice from readers.‎ C. To share happiness with others. D. To communicate useful information.‎ ‎26. The author presents the phenomenon of the comparison by ________.‎ A. listing a lot of figures B. giving facts and examples C. providing scientific findings D, comparing famous people’s opinions ‎27. From the passage, we learn that the author ________ comparison with others.‎ A. supports B. opposes C. ignores D. respects C 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 companions. 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 boys 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 abilities and skills 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 fell good about them, too.”‎ 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 found that IQ (智商) 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 ability—the base of emotional health. They also help him understand that people must work together with others and work toward common goals. The most able adults are those who know how to do this. Yet work isn’t everything. As Tolstoy once said, “One can live magnificently (辉煌地) 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.”‎ ‎28. Vaillant’s words in Paragraph 2 serve as ________.‎ A. an analysis of how work was related to ability B. a description of personal values and social values C. an explanation why some boys grew into happy men D. an example for parents’ expectations of their children ‎29. Vaillant’s team obtained their findings by ________.‎ A. comparing different sets of scores B. evaluating the men’s mental health C .recording the boys’ effort in school D. measuring the men’s problem solving ability ‎30. What does the underlined word "sharps probably mean in Paragraph 4?‎ A. quick to react B. sudden and rapid C. clear and definite D. having a thin edge ‎31. What can be inferred from the last paragraph?‎ A. Independence is the key to one’s success.‎ B. Able adults know more about love than work.‎ C. Love brings more joy to people than work does.‎ D. Emotional health is essential to a wonderful adult life.‎ D Volume One’s first-ever poetry contest (比赛)‎ Volume One, the Chippewa Valley’s weekly arts and culture publication, is now accepting entries for its first poetry contest.

I felt _57_ and could have the freedom of, once again, looking straight into the old lady’s kind eyes.‎ The next day, I handed the old lady her paper and was able to _58_ the warm smile that I was receiving from her. She thanked me for the paper and gave me a bag of cookies she had made herself.

Though Britain’s relationship with tea is far _62_ (short), tea plays the most important part as the UK’s national drink. In fact, the UK Tea Council claims British people drink _63_ average of three cups a day. With figures like these, it is no surprise that time _64_ (spend) taking tea takes up the working day of the British. A recent survey found that 24 minutes a day are lost to making, buying and drinking tea and coffee. This equals _65_ £‎400 a year in lost hours per person, or 190 days over a lifetime.‎ So, should bosses be worried about this lost working time, or can the tea break _66_ (make) up for in other ways? One opinion supporting it is that a drink of tea or coffee can cause you _67_ (be) energetic and help you focus on work. However, Professor Rogers of the University of Bristol disagrees. After years of studying caffeine (咖啡因)，he doesn’t see any evidence _68_ shows tea improves mental _69_ (perform). “Workers would perform equally well if not drinking at all,” he says. “But if they are drinking tea frequently and then go without _70_, they’ll feel tired and won’t perform well.”‎ 第四部分：写作（百强校英语解析团队专供）（共两节，满分45分）‎ 第一节：短文改错（共10小题：每小题1分，满分10分〉‎ 假定英语课上老师要求同桌之间交换修改作文，请你修改你同桌写的以下作文。文中共有10处语言错误，每句中最多有两处。每处错误仅涉及一个单词的增加、删除或修改。‎ 增加：在缺词处加一个漏字符号（∧）并在其下面写出该加的词。‎ 删除：把多余的词用斜线（＼）划掉。‎ 修改：在错的词下划一横线，并在该词下面写出修改后的词。‎ 注意：1. 每处错误及其修改均仅限一词；‎ ‎ 2. 只允许修改10处，多者（从第11处起）不计分。‎ As the saying goes, “Many little drop of water make an ocean.” A small action may lead to major changes in society.
