We faced constant comparisons in our physical appearance. People were always comparing our personalities and academic performances as well! These constant comparisons made me decide not to go to the same university as my twin brother. That is not to say we didn’t have good academic experiences in the past or didn’t get along. In eleventh grade, we were placed in the same math experimental class. I recall arriving early to the first class and being a bit disappointed when I saw David already seated at his desk. It is hard to avoid comparisons when we were in the same class. However, we found that we actually worked well together, in our own way. We would argue about the best way to solve a problem and debate its answer. As the year went on, I noticed that our teacher kept moving us closer and closer together. Our argument was actually productive. However, we were two very different candidates. I was very involved in extracurricular( 课 外 的 )activities, while David had better test scores than I did. I’m fond of writing while David enjoys playing computer games. I am currently studying English and French at McGill University, while David is studying computer science at Union College. Besides escaping comparisons, there have been other benefits to going to different universities. The first one is that we are forced to talk to each other, as we no longer see each other every day. This is healthier for our relationship. The second, also the more important one, is that after having so many similar experiences together we can have our own experiences separate from one another. Going to a different university has benefited me thus far. It allows for more personal growth, and I’m not attached to the label of being a twin. 24. Which of the following is the best title for the passage? A. Why Do People Like to Compare Me with My Twin Brother? B. Why Am I Choosing a Different University with My Twin Brother? C. What Are Some Main Benefits of Being Twin Brothers at School? D. How Can Twin Brothers Get Along Well with Each Other at School? 25.What can be inferred about the author? A. He was fed up with people’s comparisons. B. He was glad to hear people’s comparisons. C. He is more handsome than David. D. He was better at academic subjects than David. 26. What does the author think of him and David studying in the same math experimental class? A. Boring. B. Harmful. C. Awful. D. Beneficial. 27.The author chose to go to a different university in order to . A. avoid seeing David B. escape arguing with David C. pursue a different experience D. strengthen bonds with David C For some parents, hitting a child who misbehaves is a common punishment. In fact, they may think that a physical type of punishment is good for children and will teach them to behave in the future. However, a leading group of child health specialists suggest that the opposite is true. These experts say that hitting is not only ineffective, but may even cause long-term harm to the child. The American Academy of Pediatrics recently changed its policy on physical punishment for a child. Released in October, the academy warns that hitting a child may have long-term effects. These effects include “aggression, brain changes, substance abuse and suicidal behavior in adulthood”. The report admits that not every child who is spanked will have these problems later in life. It makes this observation: “Although many children who were spanked become happy, healthy adults, current evidence suggests that hitting is not necessary and may result in long-term harm.” In recent years, many American experts have been advising parents against the use of physical punishment. Many other countries have already banned corporeal punishment. Sweden was the first nation to do so in 1966. Earlier studies have shown that corporal punishment can also affect a child’s ability to think and learn. In 2012, a Canadian study found that hitting children can cause long-term developmental damage and may even lower a child’s intelligence test scores. The American Academy of Pediatrics also warns against using strong verbal abuse or shame to discipline a child. These types of punishment can also cause long-term problems for a child. Instead, they suggest other types of punishment that are appropriate for the age of the child. For younger children, punishment could be taking away a favorite toy. For older children, a parent can limit the time the child spends watching television or playing with computers or electronic games. 28. What can we know according to the experts? A. Spanking a child is not effective but harmful. B. Sweden was the first country to spank a child in 1996. C. The study from Canada found that spanking children can lower children’s grades. D. Many American experts found spanking a child can cause anti-social behavior. 29. Which of the following best explains “discipline” underlined in paragraph 3? A. Protect. B. Control. C. Persuade. D. Punish. 30. What does the author intend to say in the last paragraph? A. We should take away younger children’s favorite toys as punishment. B. As for older children, we need allow them to watch TV or play games. C. Different children should be given different ways to punish. D. It may be ineffective for younger or older children to have punishment. 31. What is the text mainly about? A. A physical type of punishment. B. The effects of punishment. C. Different countries have different types of punishment. D. How to punish the mischievous children. D “Small enough to fit in your hands but too dangerous to hold” is a good description of the hedgehog. Though small, it is able to protect itself from attack or harm. Thousands of stiff, sharp spines cover the animal’s back and sides. Even though spines provide the hedgehog with effective protection, the animal’s most striking characteristic is its practice of curling up into a tight ball, with its spines sticking out in all directions. The hedgehog curls up if disturbed or frightened--only the strongest animals can open it. It also sleeps in this position, so it is rarely caught unprotected. Hedgehogs can live in a wide range of climates and lands in East Africa. They must have dry shelters on well-drained soil and a good supply of insects. Nairobi, the capital of Kenya in East Africa, meets these habitat conditions, where hedgehogs are reported to be abundant. A hedgehog uses a small home range with an approximate 120-yard radius (半径范围) from its nest. The hedgehog makes loud noises if its range is invaded by another animal. The hedgehog wakes up at dusk and begins its activities alone. It uses regular pathways, walking along on its short legs searching for food. A hedgehog will eat about one-third of its body weight in one night. Its favorite foods are insects, earthworms and snails, making it a welcome guest in many gardens--it is even kept as a pet. It is also known to eat eggs, small mammals, birds, frogs, reptiles, and roots. Although not completely immune to poison, hedgehogs have enough resistance to allow them to eat poisonous snakes. 32. While facing danger, the hedgehog . A. stands straight up B. makes loud noises C. goes back to its nest D. uses its spines for protection 33. The second paragraph is mainly about hedgehog’s . A. appearance B. habitat C.diet D. hunting skills 34. According to paragraph 3, the hedgehog is . A. active at night B. afraid of snakes C. keeping away from gardens D. totally immune to poisons 35. It can be inferred from the text that . A. there is a lot of rain in Nairobi B. hedgehogs are cooperative animals C. hedgehogs always stay on guard against danger D. there is an increasing trend towards keeping pet hedgehogs 第二节（共 5 小题；每小题 2 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。 Life isn’t always a walk in the park. 36 These tips are small things that happy people do to make life just a little bit better, and now you can too. 1. They turn mistakes into lessons. 37 While it’s easy to be upset when a new job just isn’t working out or a relationship falls apart, focusing on learning from what went wrong will help you turn a mistake into something productive. 2. They go offline. Addiction to social media sites is a bad habit, and looking at pictures of other people’s amazing vacations and delicious desserts isn’t doing anything for you. Make a promise with yourself to remove them every day--you can read a book or call a friend. 38 3. They ignore the small stuff. Bad days happen. 39 You accidentally fall over a banana skin...There are plenty of cases where anger, disappointment, and anxiety are totally reasonable reactions, but they don’t have to be your final reactions. Learning to let go of the little things you can’t control will allow you to focus better on the positive aspects of life. 4. They plan trips. Even if you can’t afford an overseas trip, there are plenty of affordable ways to get out there and see the world. Experiencing a new culture or food or a change in scenery is a great way to bring a little extra happiness into your life. 5. 40 Instead of waiting for opportunities to fall into your lap, take control. Putting yourself out there can feel like a challenge, but once you take a risk, you will certainly be rewarded. A. They ignore risks. B. They take chances. C. Mistakes are an inevitable part of life. D. So how do happy people get through a rough day? E. You spill coffee down your shirt before you are running out of the door. F. So who can you turn to for help when you plan trips? G. Just staying away from the Internet allows you to live your life instead of watching other people live theirs. 第三部分 英语知识运用（共两节，满分 45 分） 第一节 完形填空（共 20 小题；每题 1.5 分） Alonzo Johnson stopped. He decided to help a(n) 41 elderly man down an escalator (自动扶梯) in a Massachusetts shopping mall last week, 42 the 23-year-old could never have predicted that his simple, random act of kindness would win him the 43 of thousands of people on line. An old man 44 at the top of an escalator and a few people started gathering 45 to get on. It was clear he was feeling 46 as to whether to step on to the escalator or not. Johnson spotted the senior citizen hesitating and 47 the simplest kindness. He reached out a(n) 48 and asked with a smile on his face, “Can I help you, sir?” The old man quietly started to 49 to the young man that he had gotten stuck on an escalator once and was a little 50 . The young man gently offered his assurance, they 51 each other eye to eye for just a moment and the old man 52 his arm. Everyone else remained 53 and waited. Paula Picard and a friend were standing nearby and 54 to take a touching photo of the pair linking arms as they 55 the escalator together. She posted the 56 on Facebook and it spread 57 with more than 420,000 likes and 25,000 comments in just a few hours. Johnson said he never 58 his action would reach so many people. “He looked very afraid and I thought maybe I could 59 .” Johnson said, “My Mom always tells us to be nice and do the 60 thing. It’s really the way I was brought up and how I was raised.” On Sunday, a bus in Chongqing fell into the Yangtze River, 61 left 15 people dead. The accident 62 (cause) by a fight between an angry passenger and the bus driver. A woman passenger failed 63 (get) off at the right bus stop. She asked the driver to stop the bus and let her get off, but the driver refused. A quarrel then occurred, with both sides using unkind 64 (word). Five minutes later, she struck the driver on the head with her smartphone, and the driver fought back with his right hand. Within two seconds, the driver took back his hand. However, he 65 (lose) control of the bus before he realized it. The bus hit a red car, and fell into the river. 66 is very basic common sense that the lives and safety of the whole bus depend upon the driver, but the woman attacked the driver because of her own fault. On 67 other hand, the driver didn’t stay calm. As a driver 68 (responsibility) for the whole bus, he should have stopped the bus by the roadside to ensure safety while under attack. It was 69 (extreme) reckless(鲁莽的) to fight back. I wonder why none of the passengers took action to stop the fight. 70 any one of the passengers had stepped forward bravely, the tragedy might have been prevented. 第四部分 写作 (共两节，满分 35 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 10 处语 言错误，每句最多有两处。每处错误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。 Dear Jane, Hello, Jane.

(5)They test it every Friday at noon. It keeps us safe, and I like to think of it as a friendly reminder that the weekend is coming. Text 6 M: Good evening, ma’am. W: Hi. I’m here looking for a gift for my brother. It’s his birthday. M: Well, you’ve come to the right place. We have the latest men’s fashions. How about this sweater for him?(7) It's a good deal.

M: Yeah. Thanks. Text 10 Hey, folks! Thanks for having me on the show. This is my first time on TV! (17) Listen, I just came back from Hawaii, and I wanted to tell you about my trip. The weather is great in Hawaii: sunshine and cool winds every day. Life is a little different compared to the “mainland”. Hawaiian people like to be outside, whether it’s on the beach, sitting outside at a cafe, or walking in the mountains and forests. (18)There are a number of islands that make up the state of Hawaii, which is the youngest of all the United States. Each island has a different environment and a different feel to it. Maui. located in the middle of the islands, is very popular with tourists and families. I was there for three days and had a great time during the day. But at nighttime, it was a little too quiet for me. Then we went to the island of Hawaii, better known as the “Big Island”. That place is famous for its volcanoes!(19) There are a couple things about Hawaii that I don’t like. One is the cost: it’s expensive to fly there, and hotels are usually very pricey. (20)The other is the fact that vegetables are not as common. I guess it’s harder to grow them there, and they re not really much part of the local diet.
