You'll laugh,  you'll cry,  and then you'll share this book to your best friend．     Half the Sky by Nicholas Kristof     For any person of any age,  Half the Sky is a must﹣read． It describes the struggle of women and the most pressing human rights problems of our time:  the common oppression of women and girls．     The Little Prince by Antoine de Saint     This children's book is simple． It might seem like a wrong book to recommend to someone in their twenties but perhaps that's what makes it a good choice． It sings praises to exploration and shows the importance of making friends． ‎ ‎（1）Who is the writer of the book The Kite Runner？________‎ A.

The two groups remembered the information equally well．‎ B. Sparrow's team typed the information into a computer．‎ C. The second group did not understand the information．．‎ D. The first group did not try to remember the formation．‎ ‎ ‎ ‎（3）In transactive memory， people________．‎ A. change the quantity of information B. keep the information in mind C. remember how to find the information．‎ D. organize information like a computer ‎ ‎ ‎（4）What is the effect of the Internet according to Sparrow's research？________‎ A. We are becoming more intelligent．‎ B. We are using memory differently．‎ C. We need a better way to access information．‎ D. We have poorer memories than before．‎ 第9页 共12页 ◎ 第10页 共12页 第二节（共1小题；每小题10分，共10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项．选项中有两项为多余选项．‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ Television is everywhere around us． Yet it is great for learning English． The pictures make it easier to understand than radio and because you can see who's talking，and get a better idea of what people mean． Just watch their "body language"！Watch programs that you find enjoyable and entertaining． （1）_______ Here's the english﹣at﹣home．com guide to learning as much as possible while watching English television： （2）_______Learning English should be fun﹣not something that you have to force yourself to do．If you have a passion for football，watch matches or the sports news． Keep a notebook near to your television． （3）_______This is especially useful．You can look for programs with sub﹣titles in your own language． Try to watch English television regularly． Even if you can only watch 15 minutes a day，you'll be amazed how much you learn． Don't worry if you don't understand everything． English television is normally aimed at native English speakers．（4）_______ If the programs that you're watching are full of unknown words，just concentrate on understanding the general meaning． Keep a note of television programs and presenters that you find easy to understand and try to watch them regularly．（5）_______Soon you will impress your friends with your English skills． A． Don't watch the programs too easy for you． B．Better watch programs that you find interesting． C．Programs often include many difficult words． D．English learning has little to do with watching TV． E．Whatever you watch will help you improve your English． F．Doing this will increase your confidence in learning English． G．You can take down any new words or expressions that you hear． ‎ 第三部分 英语知识运用（共两节，满分30分）第一节（共1小题；每小题1.5分，满分30分）阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑．‎ ‎ ‎ ‎     Steve was a seventh grader,  a big boy,  looking more like a teenager than a 12﹣year﹣old． Yet,  he went unnoticed﹣he had been （1）_______ every examination since first grade﹣until Miss Wilma appeared．     In the middle of the first semester of school,  the entire seventh grade was （2）_______ for basic skills．     "You all did pretty well, " Miss Wilma told the class after going over the （3）_______ ,  "except for one boy． And it （4）_______ my heart to tell you this,  but…" she（5）_______, "the smartest boy in the seventh grade is failing my class．" Steve （6）_______ his eyes and carefully examined his fingertips．     After that,  Steve still wouldn't do his homework． Even if Miss Wilma （7）_______ punished him,  he remained （8）_______．     "Steve,  please!
