As university students, they became interested in folktales—traditional stories that people memorized and told again and again. They began to collect traditional folktales from storytellers all over Germany. Many were similar to stories told in France, Italy, Japan, and other countries. Between 1812 and 1814, the brothers published two books in German. These included stories like “Hansel and Gretel” and “Little Red Riding Hood”. The collections became known in English as Grimm’s Fairy Tales. The Grimm brothers’ tales reflected traditional life and beliefs. For example, forests are common in Germany, and a forest often appears in the Grimms’ stories. ____4____ In the Grimms’ stories, a forest is the home of evil witches, talking animals, and other magical beings. Although most people today think of these stories as fairy tales for children, the brothers first wrote them primarily for adults. Many of their early tales were dark and a little scary. Later, the brothers changed the text of some of the original stories. They “softened” and added drawings. This made them more appropriate for children. Like the early tales, though, each story still has a moral(寓意): work hard, be good, and listen to your parents. 1. What were Jacob and Wilhelm Grimm interested in when they were university students?

B Six Cypress Bay High School students have recently won a $5,000 prize in the 2012 NASA Ames Space Settlement Design Contest.Their space settlement(定居) plan，“The Kon Tiki，”was chosen from 474 entries(参赛 作品) throughout 18 countries. The“Kon Tiki” team was advised by Cypress Bay High School physics teachers Angela Ashley and Jeffrey Rose.“One of my students discovered the contest through the NASA INSPIRE Online Learning Community and this group of future scientists gives me hope for the future，”says Angela Ashley.“We want the kids to get excited about the chances that science and technology offer.” The NASA Space Settlement Contest is held every year for 6～12th graders (11～18 years old) worldwide.The contest builds up students' natural interest in space and space exploration． The Florida teens began work on “The Kon Tiki”project the summer before the 2011/12 school year.Months of meetings and hard work resulted in the 84page“The Kon Tiki”project report. “The Space Settlement Contest is a part of NASA's educational effort to encourage future explorers，”said Al Globus，NASA scientist and one of the founding members of the competition.“The contest is designed to encourage a student's interest in math and science and to develop the ideas and skills that will make living in space a possibilit —y.” Jeffrey Rose praises the team for spending the time needed to create a project while balancing their heavy school work.“The project took a lot of time and energy，and required the commitment and talent of the whole team，”Rose says. Teachers and parents of the teens on the “Kon Tiki”team are proud of them.“Just think of it，”says Rose proudly.“One of my students might be the first person to step onto Mars！” 6．Angela Ashley and Jeffrey Rose advised their students to take part in the contest because______.

Travelling，in my opinion，does more good than harm.Most importantly，it broadens(使扩大)our mind.We can get in touch with other civilizations，cultures，customs and ideas. Through history，most people travelled because of necessity—not for pleasure.People travelled just in order to remain alive.They searched for food to eat or places to live in.They sometimes ran away from enemies.This is not to say that no one ever travelled just for the fun of it.In ancient times，for example，rich Romans travelled all the way to Greece to take part in the Olympic Games，and festivals.Of course，some people decided to travel just out of curiosity(好奇心)．They wanted to find out what it looked like beyond the horizon(地平线)．Also business travel has been going on for centuries.Traders could not only make money but also learn to speak several languages and be introduced to different cultures. So，travelling does enrich our mind and draw new ideas to us.There is no doubt that we can get much from it. 11．The underlined word“expand”in Paragraph 1 can be replaced by “______”． A．widen B．protect C．lose D．decide 12．According to the passage，in the past most people travelled ______. A．for fun B．for knowledge C．to get experiences D．to make a living 13．How many reasons for travelling are mentioned in Paragraph 3? A．Three. B．Four. C．Five. D．Six. 14．In the writer's opinion，travelling can be ______. A．expensive B．funny C．helpful D．tiring [来源:学科网] 15.what's the main ides of this passage? A.different kinds of travelling B.travelling enriches our mind C.ways to enjoy yourself while travelling D.the advantages and disadvantages of travelling 四．七选五 Have you ever considered volunteering? It gives you a chance to make contributions. You'll feel a sense of pride that you are volunteering your time, and a local organization will benefit, too. But how to volunteer?Follow the three steps before you enjoy it. Pick an organization. 1._________ You're likely to be happier and volunteer longer at an organization that supports a cause you care about. For example, if you're interested in animal welfare, maybe you want to volunteer at an animal shelter. Much like job search sites, you can also use volunteer websites like Volunteer Match to help you find volunteer chances in your area. If you still can't narrow down where you want to volunteer, start asking people you know where they volunteer. 2.___________ Be clear what you can offer. First identify your skills. For example, maybe you could write brochures（小册子） for local nonprofits if writing is your style. 3.__________ You need to be sure how much time you can give to an organization based on your other commitments. If you try to do too much, you're more likely to give up. 4.__________ Treat the application like a job. Spend some time preparing for the interview, much as you would for a job interview. 5.______________ Ask what's expected of volunteers. For example, volunteers at a museum may be expected to learn parts of the galleries（展览馆）to give tours. Start volunteering slowly. That is, it's better to commit to just a little bit of time at first to see if you like volunteering at the organization. A．Apply and get started. B．Volunteer in person or online. C．Then don’t forget to review your weekly schedule plan. D．You'd better focus on the causes you like very much. E. You may find one of them has the perfect opportunity for you. F. It is also a time for you to judge（判断）whether the organization is fit for you. G. First find an organization that's a good fit for you, and then decide what you have to offer. 五．书面表达 俗话说“远亲不如近邻”。近日某英文报正在举行题为“My Neighborhood”的征文活动。假如你是李雷， 住在花园社区，根据以下问题提示，完成一篇英文征文稿。[来源:学|科|网 Z|X|X|K] 问题：1.What is your neighborhood like? 2．What are your neighbors like？ 3．How do they help others？(give two examples) 4.What did you do for your neighbors？(give one example) 5．How do you feel to live in your neighborhood? 要求：1.必须包括问题提示中所有要点内容，并适当发挥； 2．100 词左右，开头已给出，不计入总词数； 3．不得使用真实姓名、校名和地名等。 My Neighborhood ____________________________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________________________________________________ 参考答案 一．单项选择 1-5 DADBC 6-10 BCBDC 11-15ACDBD 二．完形填空 1-5 BDCDA 6-10 CABAD 11-15BDCBA 三．阅读理解 1-5 BBCAD 6-10 AABCB 11-15 ADBCB[来源:学科网 ZXXK] 四．七选五 1-5 DECAF 五．书面表达 My Neighborhood My name is Li Lei.I live in Garden Neighborhood.I have lived here for years.There’s a beautiful park near the neighborhood.I always take a walk in it.And there’s a shop in our neighborhood,so it’s very convenient for us to buy things.I love my neighborhood very much.The best thing is that my neighbors are very friendly.We are just like good friends.They often have a“helping hands”meeting at the weekend.Some of them often visit the old people.They help the old people clean their flats.They also do some shopping for them.Sometimes I join them.If there is something wrong with their washing machines or fridges,I can help them check and fix.
