More than three hundred of his students went on to become band directors them-selves. “I have been a band director for more than 60 years and all I know about the word band is that you spell it F-U-N,” Long said. “And if you change that, it’s over.”‎ ‎ Long retired 14 years ago to spend more time with his wife Mary Lynn. But his passion (热情) for bands never went away. He dreamed of forming a top-notch (拔尖的) community band in Troy. But Troy is a small town — with not a ton of top-notch talent. “I didn’t think it would work, I really didn’t,” Long said. ‎ ‎ Fortunately, there was one thing Johnny hadn’t considered: the devotion of his former students. Now, once a week during the concert season, they drive in from all over the south and across the decades. ‎ ‎ 65-year-old Bobby Johnson was in Long’s first college class. He lives in Atlanta and drives 3 hours to practice. Johnson said he does it because Long’s “such a unique character and I just admire him so much.”‎ ‎ Many people do it for the same reason. “He’s the single biggest influence on my career.” “He was a father figure to me. He’s just a genuine person.” ‎ ‎ Long said he wanted to be remembered as a teacher. “I think ‘teacher’ is the greatest word in the English language, next to ‘mother’.”‎ ‎21. What Long got most from bands was ______.‎ A. pleasure B. health C. wealth D. honor ‎22. Why did Long retire 14 years ago?‎ A. Because he found no band talent in Troy. ‎ B. Because he was tired of working as a director.‎ C. Because he hoped to spend more time with his wife.‎ D. Because he found his students were not devoted to music. ‎ ‎23. The words of Long’s students show that ______.‎ A. Long treated his students like a father B. Long was born to be a good teacher C. Long influenced his students greatly D. Long was very special as a teacher ‎ ‎24. What’s the main idea of the text?‎ A. Johnny Long still teaches at the age of 85. B. A band director had more than 300 students.‎ C. A band lover organized a band in a small town. D. 85-year-old band director still inspires others. ‎ B ‎ ‎ Karaoke is from Japan. The “kara” of karaoke means empty, while the “oke” is a Japanese abbreviation (缩略词) of the English word “orchestra”. These two words coming together mean an orchestra without a singer. I know “karaoke bars” are well known by Americans, but actually we have few karaoke bars in Japan. What we call “karaoke box” is more popular in Japan.‎ ‎ Shinjuku may be a place you want to go. There are huge shopping malls, video centers, movie theaters and many kinds of amusement. It is very crowded, especially on weekends, and you can hardly walk through the area. But don’t worry if you don’t know where to go because people who work at those karaoke boxes are on the street, and they will introduce you to the service they have, or they offer you a discount to visit their karaoke box. ‎ ‎ After you have settled into the room and your music starts, you can adjust the key or tempo (调) of the song if you feel it is too high or low, or too fast or slow. Also, if you want to have harmony (和声), you can. But the important thing here is you should listen to other people singing. Usually people like to have audiences and that’s what people like when doing karaoke.‎ ‎ At karaoke boxes, you should not look into other rooms. You can’t smoke or drink if you are under twenty. Though there are no specific people who go around the boxes because they don’t want to make their customers feel nervous, it is important to follow these rules.‎ ‎ Though some people would not like singing in front of people even if they were friends or family, in my opinion, you can still have a lot of fun there. I think it is a way to express ourselves to people whom we like, and we want to say, “Listen to me! I am here!” ‎ ‎25. Which of the following is TRUE about Shinjuku in Japan?‎ A. The karaoke box originated there. B. It’s easy for people to get lost there. ‎ C. It provides a wide choice of entertainment. D. Most of Japanese karaoke boxes are located there. ‎ ‎26. What does the author think is important when enjoying karaoke?‎ A. Trying to choose different types of music. B. Listening to others and being their audience. ‎ C. Changing the key or tempo of the music. D. Adding harmony to the songs you like. ‎ ‎27. According to the text, it can be learned that the author thinks ______. ‎ A. singing in front of friends or family is very interesting ‎ B. doing karaoke can be a way to communicate with others C. karaoke boxes in Japan are better than karaoke bars in America D. karaoke workers should teach their customers to follow the rules C ‎ ‎ For years, Warner Bros., with help from author JK Rowling, has taken the details of the “Harry Potter” books and made them come alive on the big screen. Now, you have access to the Wizarding World of Harry Potter in Orlando, Florida. By entering the park, visitors will experience things that are like scenes right out of the movies. Here are a few highlights of the park.‎ Thrill Rides ‎* Harry Potter and the Forbidden Journey ‎ ‎ Ground-breaking and technologically advanced, this unique ride takes park-goers on a journey through the Harry Potter timeline. Along the way, you’ll visit some memorable locations. And who would be more qualified to host the ride than the three main characters themselves, Harry, Ron, and Hermione?‎ ‎* Flight of the Hippogriff (鹰头马身有翅怪兽)‎ ‎ You may remember that Hagrid, Hogwarts’ half-‎ ‎-giant caretaker, has a special connection with magical creatures. For this ride, follow Hagrid’s instructions on how to approach a Hippogriff. Then, jump aboard for a test flight!‎ Amazing shops ‎* Dervish and Banges ‎ ‎ At this magical shop, visitors will find almost everything they need to change into wizards-in-training. From Hogwarts robes (长袍) and spell (咒语) books to sports equipment, Dervish and Banges has them all.‎ ‎* Ollivanders ‎ ‎ Imagine being able to pick out your very own magic wand (魔杖), just as Harry did. Or rather, imagine having your wand pick you! It’s all possible at Ollivanders. Visitors to the mystical wand shop will be treated to a unique interactive experience and leave with the perfect match.‎ ‎28.

The Navy won’t reveal whether the dolphins and sea lions have effectively stopped terrorists attempting to do harm to the U.S.‎ ‎ A key part of the training program is teaching these mammals how to stop potentially ‎ unfriendly swimmers. The program is also positioned to defend against swimmer terrorist attacks as well.‎ ‎ In the digital age, it seems that there should be more advanced approaches to guard the Navy’s most expensive things. But according to Rothe, the program director, nothing in today’s high-technology world can compete with these mammals’ biosonar abilities. “I hope that one day there is a robot or a UUV (un-manned underwater vehicle) that makes the mammal program out of date,” he said. “But right now this is the best thing out there.”‎ ‎32. The U.S. Marine Mammal Program trained marine mammals to ______.‎ A. stop dangerous swimmers B. catch 20 pounds of fish a day C. destroy sea mines D. fire torpedoes ‎33. The U.S. trained dolphins because they ______.‎ A. are clever B. swim very fast C. have natural biosonar D. have good underwater eyesight ‎34. What can we learn from the last paragraph?‎ A. The trained dolphins are the best way of protection available to the U.S. Navy.‎ B. There will be dolphin-like robots in the future according to Rothe.‎ C. The mammal program will become useless soon.‎ D. Rothe has no faith in today’s high technology.‎ ‎35. Which of the following is TRUE according to the text?‎ A. Many countries have trained sea animals for counter-terrorism.‎ B. The Marine Mammal Program was a secret until the 1960s.‎ C. The trained sea animals have already stopped some terrorists.‎ D. The U.S. Navy has trained both dolphins and sea lions.‎ 第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)‎ ‎ In times of economic downturn, many people start to look for ways to reduce their household budget and save extra cash. Living a thrifty (节俭的) lifestyle does not have to mean doing nothing.36 Here are some tips.‎ ‎ Track your spending for at least 2 weeks. You won’t really know how to live a thriftier lifestyle until you know where your money is going. Write down every time you spend money and take a look at it at the end of the month. 37 ‎ ‎ Search the Internet when you have to make purchases. Because of the easy access to information, you can compare prices from more stores in less time. 38 Combining producers’ coupons (优惠券) with store discounts can lead to major savings.‎ ‎ Turn off the lights and other electronics in your home when you are not using them. 39 Leaving electronics on can use a tremendous amount of extra energy, costing you money.‎ ‎ 40 When you do have to go out, look for available deals and discounts. If you are a frequent restaurant diner, consider purchasing a guide book for local restaurants, which will help you save money.‎ A. Eat at home as often as possible.‎ B. You probably don’t really need 500 channels.‎ C. If you really can’t live without it, call the company.‎ D. Open a window and let in the natural light instead.‎ E. In this way, you will see obvious ways to reduce the small daily expenses.‎ F. So check your local stores as well as online providers to find the best price.‎ G. Instead, making small changes will allow you to save money and still enjoy yourself.‎ 第三部分:英语知识运用 (共两节,满分45)‎ 第一节:完形填空(共20小题;每小题1.5分,满分30 分)‎ ‎ The other day my daughter finally had a day off work.

Some of them are in favor the idea that evening classes should be cancelled. To begin with, cancel evening classes mean we have more time to learn by ourselves. Besides, we will have more time to develop our hobby such as reading, playing sports, drawing and so on. However, others oppose to this idea. Compared with studying at home, studying at school may lead to higher study efficiency. What’s worse, the problems in study can be dealing with as soon as possible. I prefer studying at home because I want to form the habit of being independence.‎ 作文:第二节:书面表达(满分25分) ‎ ‎ 假定你是高中生李华,有感于校园中存在的随意涂写(scribble)和乱丢垃圾(litter)的行为,请用英文给校长写封信。‎ 说明写信的目的。2.对这些行为提出批评。3.提出建议 ‎ 一听力 ‎1—5 BBCAC 6—10 ABCAB 11—15 ACAAB 16—20 CACAC 二阅读 ‎21-25 ACCDC 26-30 BBDDB 31-35 CACAD 36-40 GEFDA 三完型 ‎41-45 DBACB 46-50 ADCDB 51-55 BACCB 56-60 ADACA ‎ 四语法填空 ‎:61 .Behind/In 62.to help 63.his 64.this/it65.that ‎ ‎66.after 67.but/yet 68.higher 69.natural 70.results ‎ 五改错 ‎71. ... about how evening classes ... how → whether / if ‎ ‎72.

I am writing to draw your attention to some improper behavior among us students : littering and scribbling. It makes our school dirty and unpleasant, and does harm to the image of our school. I always feel ashamed whenever I see this. It is clearly not appropriate for a student to litter and scribble about. I wonder if the school could place more dustbins around and set up specific rules against such behavior. At the same time, students should be encouraged to develop good habits and better behave themselves. I believe that, with the joint efforts of bother teachers and students,our school will become a more enjoyable place in the near future. Thank for your consideration. ‎ ‎  Yours faithfully, ‎ ‎  Li hua
