You can start your Asian exploration by visiting some of these attractive cities first.‎ Beijing‎, ‎China Beijing‎ is the second largest city in China and serves as the capital. The city is so old, in fact, that almost every building has some sort of cultural or historic features - no matter how small. Getting around the city, you’ll find yourself faced with amazing temples, the largest palace in the world, and many works of art that leave you breathless.‎ Siem Reap, Cambodia (柬埔寨)‎ Siem Reap is the capital city of Siem Reap Province in northwestern Cambodia. Siem Reap has a lot of French and Chinese - style architecture. In the city, there are traditional dance performances, silk farms, fishing villages and a bird sanctuary (保护区) near the Tonle Sap Lake. Siem Reap today, being a popular tourist attraction, has a large number of hotels and restaurants.‎ Kathmandu, Nepal (尼泊尔)‎ Situated in the heart of the Himalayas, Kathmandu, the largest city and capital of Nepal, is considered to be one of the most outstanding cities in the world today. The shopping districts are world - famous and the hotels in Kathmandu are among the most comfortable hotels in the world.‎ Kyoto‎, ‎Japan The city of Kyoto served as the capital of Japan from 794 to 1868. No longer the capital, it is known for being die seventh largest city in Japan. Kyoto was destroyed throughout history by fires and war. But now the city is home to more than 1.4 million people, and it presents a modem face to the rest of the world.‎ Every city throughout Asia has a story of its own. It’s up to you to explore them all and find out exactly what each one has to offer. Enjoy!‎ ‎21. If you want to visit the biggest palace, you can go to .‎ A. Kyoto B. Siem Reap C. Beijing D. Kathmandu ‎22. In Siem Reap you can see the following EXCEPT .‎ A. a protected bird area B. Chinese - style buildings C. traditional dance performances D. excellent art works ‎23. We can learn from the passage that .‎ A. the cities are all capital cities now B. Beijing is the largest city in ‎China C. all the cities have their own stories D. one can’t find a good hotel in ‎Kathmandu B A man walked into a small Irish pub and ordered three beers. The bartender was surprised, but he served that man three beers. One hour later the man ordered three beers again. The very next day that man ordered three beers again and drank quietly at a table. This repeated several times and shortly after the people of the town were whispering about the man, who was ordering three beers at once.‎ A couple of weeks later, the bartender decided to clear this out and inquired. “I do not want to pry, but could you explain, why do you order three beers all the time?” The man replied, “It seems strange, doesn’t it? You see, my two brothers live abroad at the moment, one in France and the other in Italy. We have made an agreement that every time we go to pub, each of us will order two extra beers and it will help keep up the family bond”.‎ Soon all the town had heard about the man’s answer and liked it a lot. The man became a local celebrity (名人). Residents of the town were telling this story to newcomers or tourists and even invited them to that pub to look at Three-Beer Mail.‎ However, one day the man came to pub and ordered only two beers, not three as usual. The bartender served him with a bad feeling. All that evening the man ordered and drank only two beers. The very next day all the town was talking about this news. Some people prayed for the soul of one of the brothers and others quietly grieved.‎ When the man came to the pub next time and ordered two beers again, the bartender told ‎ him, “I would like to offer sympathy to you, due to the death of your dear brother”. The man considered this for a moment and then replied. “Oh, you are probably surprised that I order only two beers now? Well, my two brothers are alive and well, it’s just because of my decision. I promised myself to give up drinking.”‎ ‎24. The man ordered three beers all the time because .‎ A. he was fond of drinking beers in this pub B. he missed his two brothers living abroad very much C. it was ail agreement with his brothers to keep lip the family bond D. this would help him become a local celebrity ‎25. We can infer from the passage that .‎ A. the man’s brothers liked drinking beer very much B. the man became famous in the town as a heavy drinker C. the man was strong-minded to give up drinking D. news traveled fast in the town.‎ ‎26. The bartender served the man with a bad feeling because .‎ A. he thought one of the man’s brothers had passed away B. he thought the man should order three beers C. he would earn less money than before D. the man decided to give up drinking ‎27. When seeing the man order 2 beers, the bartender felt ..‎ A. grateful B. angry C. sympathetic D. surprised C Anna Schiferl hadn’t even got out of bed when she reached for her cellphone and typed a text to her mom, one recent Saturday. Mom was right downstairs in the kitchen. The text? Anna wanted an egg for breakfast. Soon after, Joanna Schiferl called, “If you want to talk to me. Anna, come downstairs and see me!” Anna laughs about it now. “I was kind of being lazy,” she admits.‎ These days, many people with cellphones prefer texting to a phone call. And that’s creating a communication divide of sorts-the talkers vs. the texters. Some would argue that it’s no big deal. But many experts say the most successful communicators will, of course, have the ‎ competence to do both. And they fear that more of us are unable to have-or at least are avoiding—the traditional face-to-face conversations.‎ Many professors say it is not common to see students outside of class. “I sit in my office hours lonely now because if my students have a question, they e-mail me，often late at night,” says Renee Houston, a professor at the University of Puget Sound in Washington State. “And they never call.”‎ As Anna sees it: “There are people you’ll text, but won’t call. It’s just a way to stay in touch with each other.” Some believe that scores of texts each day keep people more connected. “The problem is that the conversation isn’t very deep,” says Joseph Grenny, co-author of the book Crucial Conversations: Tools for Talking When Stakes are High.‎ ‎“The problem has been there since we’ve had telephones-probably since the time of a telegraph.” Grenny says. Texting is just the latest way to do that. Though they may not always be so good at deep conversations themselves. Grenny suggests that parents model the behavior for their children and put down their own cell phones. He says that they also should set limits, as Anna’s mom did when she made the “no texting to people in the same house” rule.‎ ‎28. According to Paragraph 1, Joanna .‎ A. did not know how to use a cell phone B. was very strict with her daughter C. was angry that her daughter got up late D. did not have any breakfast that morning ‎29. The underlined word “competence” in Paragraph 2 probably means “ ”‎ A. chance B. courage C. ability D. patience ‎30. In Joseph Grenny’s opinion, .‎ A. cell phones make people lonelier B. telephones help people communicate clearly C. talking should be encouraged instead of texting D. texting helps people have deeper conversations ‎ ‎31. What is the passage mainly about?‎ A. why is communication important?‎ B. is texting mining the art of conversation?‎ C. how does texting affect kids at school?‎ D. how can we avoid one-sided conversations?‎ D A characteristic of American culture that has become almost a tradition is to respect the self-made man — the man who has risen to the top through his own efforts, usually beginning by working with his hands. While the leader in business，industry or the college professor occupies a higher social position and commands greater respect in the community than the common laborer or even the skilled factory worker, he may take pains to point out that his father started life in America as a fanner or laborer of some sort.‎ This attitude toward manual (体力的) labor is now still seen in many aspects of American life. One is invited to dinner at a home that is not only comfortably but even luxuriously (豪华地) furnished and in which there is every evidence of the fact that the family has been able to afford foreign travel, expensive hobbies, and college education for the children; yet the hostess probably will cook the dinner herself, will serve it herself and will wash dishes afterward, furthermore the dinner will not consist merely of something quickly and easily assembled (收集) from contents of various cans and a cake or a pie bought at the nearby bakery. On the contrary, the hostess usually takes pride in careful preparation of special dishes. A professional man may talk about washing the car, digging in his flowerbeds, or painting the house. His wife may even help with these things, just as he often helps her with the dish-washing. The son who is away at college may wait on table and wash dishes for his living, or during the summer he may work with a construction gang on a highway ill order to pay for his education.‎ ‎32. According to the passage, the hostess cooks dinner herself mainly because .‎ A. servants in Amercia are hard to get B. she can hardly afford servants C. she takes pride in what she can do herself D. it is easy to prepare a meal with canned food ‎33. The expression “wait on table” in the second paragraph means “ ”.‎ A. wait to lay the table B. keep accounts for a bar C. work in a furniture shop D. serve customers in a restaurant ‎ ‎34. We can conclude from the passage that .‎ A. people can always rise to the top through their won efforts B. people tend to have a high opinion of the self-made man C. college professors win great respect from common workers D. people feel painful to mention their fathers as laborers ‎35. Which of the following may serve as the best title of the passage?‎ A. Characteristics of Amercian Culture B. A Respectable Self-made Family C. Amercian Attitude Toward Manual Labor D. The Development of Manual Labor 第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分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。‎ Some people get pleasure from picnics and tours. Others like to discuss various topics and find pleasure in it. But the reading of books provides us with such pleasure as we do not get from any other activity.‎ Books are written by learned people. They contain the best experiences and thoughts of their writers. Writers put in their books not only their own ideas and feelings, but also what they observe and find in society. 36 ‎ If we are in a cheerful mood, our joy is increased by reading. 37 They provide us with the best advice and guidance in our difficulties. Indeed, books are our best friends as they help us in our hour of need.‎ ‎ 38 They entertain us in our spare moments. Good novels, books on poetry and short stories give us great enjoyment. At times we become so absorbed in our books that we forget even our important arrangements. Loneliness is no trouble for a reader.‎ ‎ 39 They give us sound moral advice. It is through the reading of books that we learn what to love and what to hate. The reading of good books develops and improves our character.‎ It was the English author Bacon who said that reading makes a full man. No one can question the truth of this saving. 40 Some books are such that instead of doing any good, they do harm to the readers. So it is the reading of good books alone that presents us the greatest benefit.‎ A. Books keep us well-informed.‎ B. Books contain grains of wisdom.‎ C. Books enable us to know the best of the colorful world.‎ D. When we are in a depressed mood, books comfort our troubled minds.‎ E. When we are alone, books are our best friends.‎ F. By reading books written by great thinkers, we come in contact with their minds.‎ G. But we cannot get full advantage from reading, if our choice is not good.‎ 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。‎ I, a 20-year-old boy, am going to tell you about my story.
