B.The company wants to be rated number one.‎ C.The SoyaJoy G4 is for South America market. D.The company intends the new products to broaden market.‎ ‎22.What's the problem of other soy milk makers?‎ A.They are not easily used. B.They can't make soups.‎ C.They have so many buttons. D.They can make the soy milk burnt.‎ ‎23.The consumers think the SoyaJoy G4 .‎ A.is easy to clean B.still remains to improve C.can get even higher scores D.is better said than done B We had a TV series in London.One of our fellow TV presenters seriously upset the camera crew when they arrived at his house.He was rude and unconcerned,treating them like lowly workers.Minutes later,when the camera was turned on,he became the perfectly smiling spiritual figure he was publicly known to be.But,as the crew told us later,he had already shown them that ‎ he didn't walk his talk.‎ In contrast,Ed was meeting with Jo,our TV producer,in a small London cafe.If you have ever been to London you'll know that in such cafe the tables are very close.Two well dressed African men sat down next to them,which effectively meant they were sharing the same table.Ed asked the two strangers where they were from and one said, "South Africa." The man pulled out his business card—his name was Jacob Zuma who,at that time,was the President of the ANC but is now the President of South Africa.‎ Usually,if you sit next to someone in a big city cafe,you don't even make eye contact,let alone conversation. Jacob had never met Ed before so he could have been distant and polite,he certainly didn't have to talk,let alone maintain communication,which he did over the following few years.He even hugged him!‎ How we walk our talk shows far more than just our public behavior.Rather,it highlights how we view the world and our place in it.Jacob Zuma showed us how he treats others—with the fairness,consideration and respect that he treats all beings.No matter who we are,whether a street cleaner or a president,we are all equal,here together as one human family.‎ ‎24.What can we learn about the TV presenter?‎ A.He felt upset before the camera. B.He was known for his being impolite.‎ C.His deeds didn't agree with his words. D.He pretended to be polite to the camera crew.‎ ‎25.Which word can best describe Jacob Zuma according to the text?‎ A.Friendly. B.Humorous. C.Generous. D.Serious.‎ ‎26.Why did Ed go to the small London cafe? ‎ A.To film a TV series. B.To interview Jacob Zuma.‎ C.To meet with a TV producer. D.To observe people's public behavior.‎ ‎27.What is the text mainly about?‎ A.TV presenters are often too proud. B.There still exists inequality in society.‎ C.I.earned people are more likely to be polite. D.People should treat others with equal respect.‎ C Parents play an important role in determining the educational success of their children.Their expectations for how well their children do at school and the environment at home are important determinants of achievement.Family influence is great in helping a child to realize academic accomplishment.‎ Children who live in homes in which the parents are academically successful,once they become parents,often feel that their job is to prepare their children to do likewise in school.They take their kids on vacation,but they spend time learning about local history at museums.They also may ensure that their kids have time to study and understand the importance of school attendance.School is a priority for these families,and children who live in them grow up with a focus on learning.‎ Parents who have high academic expectations and those who adopt a more authoritarian parenting style for their children often have children who do well in school.However,it can be dangerous to set expectations too high,such that a child feels overly pressured to perform.These types of expectations should be balanced with those that relate directly to the child,so that they will be able to personally set and reach goals,work hard and to enjoy being curious.‎ Parents who support their children in their academic work also positively influence their performance.This takes different forms for families.Some parents might help with homework,or volunteer at school.Others provide a quiet study space,a consistent bedtime or a positive example of hard work and discipline.How parents show support for their child's academic career varies by family and by culture.No matter how it is shown,it is a vital part of a child's academic success to know their parents are behind their efforts.‎ A love of reading in a household can also positively affect a child's academic attainment.Learning new vocabulary,and how to predict,understand and respond to a text are just some of the skills children can learn at home that are important in an academic environment.Reading books,newspapers,magazines and websites with children on a regular basis sets them up for success at school.‎ ‎28.According to the text,parents have an important effect on children's .‎ A.family life B.next generation C.academic achievement D.expectations of their jobs ‎29.What may a family with academically successful parents put first?‎ A.Family travel. B.Attending school. C.Historic knowledge. D.Going to museums.‎ ‎30.How may academically successful parents influence their children's academic achievement?‎ A.They can offer help to their children in different ways. B.They may ask teachers to their houses to teach.‎ C.They put great pressure on their children. D.They ask their children to solve problems alone.‎ ‎31.What could be the best title for the text?‎ A.How to improve the relation in a family B.Benefits of academically successful parents C.What parents can do to help their children D.Family influence on children's academic achievement D Mike Miles hadn't had a stable job in years.He bounced around from one position to another,never sure when his last day would be.Sometimes,he lost a position with less than a day's notice.This wasn't due to a poor work ethic—from arriving early to staying late,Miles says he did everything he could to build a good relationship with employers.But because Miles had a criminal record,he was always cut loose when it came time to let staff go.‎ It wasn't until October 2015,nearly a decade after his release from prison,that a cousin told Miles about Lancaster Food Company,a local business that focuses on hiring people released from prison.Hoping this would clear up what felt like a thick cloud of uncertainty over his future,Miles submitted an application.He got an interview, and he then began a new job.‎ Miles' scenario is rare in Lancaster,where the poverty rate holds steady at 30%.This figure riled Charlie Crystle, Lancaster's co-founder and CEO.Crystle was raised in Lancaster but left in 1986 to purse a college degree and later,a career in technology.He co-founded four tech companies,one of which sold for millions of dollars back in 2000.‎ Crystle is skeptical that many of Lancaster's low-income residents can get started the way he ‎ did.He believes food production is a key way to meet former offenders who may lack a college degree.Lancaster produces products like bread.Nowadays the company is rapidly expanding; however,at just 16 full-time employees,including administration and owners,it doesn't lower the city's poverty rate.‎ Crystle says he wants to inspire other companies to rethink their current practices and start conversations around minimum wage and employment opportunities for everyone,including ex-offenders.Dan Jurman,who chairs the city's Commission to Combat Poverty,believes that Crystle's business is a great way to make this happen."None of us can handle these issues alone," he said.‎ ‎32.The purpose of the first paragraph is to show .‎ A.a man's difficulty in living a stable life B.an increasingly competitive workplace C.a decrease in employment opportunities D.the reason why Lancaster Food Company was founded ‎33.What does the underlined word "riled" in Paragraph 3 most probably mean?‎ A.Annoyed. B.Discouraged. C.Amused. D.Embarrassed.‎ ‎34.What words can best describe Charlie Crystle according to the text?‎ A.Outgoing,kind and considerate. B.Wealthy but a little bit greedy.‎ C.Humorous,diligent and ambitious. D.Successful and socially responsible.‎ ‎35.In Dan Jurman's opinion,what is the biggest achievement of Lancaster Food Company?‎ A.It greatly increases employment opportunities. B.It suggests an idea for fighting poverty.‎ C.It provides a way to handle ex-offenders. D.It creates a stable environment for people.‎ 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。‎ Controlling Anger Becoming angry is something beyond the control of people._36_Becoming angry can do a lot of damages,both mental and physical.However,there are methods for discovering how to control anger and not suffer later.‎ ‎●_37_The moment you feel there are chances of you becoming angry,get away from those ‎ circumstances.In fact,there can be no better a judge than you,for discovering what it is or who it is that makes you become angry,and then at that moment choose to think about something else that can lighten your feelings.‎ ‎●Keep a check on your breathing._38_By controlling the process of breathing,you can actually slow down your anger greatly.You can count till the number three as you breathe in,hold it for 3 seconds and again count till three while breathing out.You have to concentrate on the count as you do this and repeat for as many times as is required.‎ ‎●_39_For example,if you're experiencing road anger while driving,you can choose to tell yourself that the person who overtook you by a vehicle was in a hurry as a result of some emergency and appreciate the fact that nothing major had happened to your car.Repeat this form of self talk to yourself every time you are in the middle of such an angry situation.‎ ‎●Look for a support in other people._40_It needs to be clear right at the beginning as to why you are discussing your concerns with that individual.Let the other individual know what you want from the other person.After you're done with your part of discussing about the circumstances,chances are that you'll feel much better than before.‎ A.Talk to yourself positively.‎ B.Come to a stop as soon as you are angry.‎ C.Try to see the situation in a different light.‎ D.You can also ask for help from the one you rely on.‎ E.What you can do when you become angry is to breathe deeply.‎ F.In fact, almost all people at one point of time or the other become angry.‎ G.You can imagine going to a place you consider to be calming as well as relaxing.‎ 笫三部分 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，满分30分）‎ 阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。‎ We were depressed and things were tough.Mom had a_41_time raising us on her own because Dad died five years ago.We relied on social assistance for_42_.‎ Looking back,I_43_remember what Mom went through to send us to school.I studied hard then.Every morning, she would put a new piece of cardboard in our shoes because our shoes ‎ were_44 _.Constant moving was typical for my family in these times.Rent was 25 dollars a month but Mom couldn't_45_it.Though it was hard,we never_46_.‎ Christmas was approaching.We were given 25 dollars for social services.Instead of buying food,Mom would use the money to pay the_47_,ensuring us all of a_48_over our head._49_we had nothing for Christmas.‎ Unknown to Mom,I had been selling Christmas trees to earn enough money for a new pair of_50_.On the afternoon of Christmas Eve,I was_51_to go to catch the bus.‎ As I reached the stop,I began to feel_52_.I was going to buy a new pair of boots_53_Mom was at home in tears.

Provide a treat for them every now and then like carrots.There are certain types of treats at pet stores that are good,and your rabbits may like them.Rabbit care also means providing your rabbits with toys.Cat toys work great,especially balls with bells in the center.Larger rabbits will even play with things such as pop cans and pop bottles.‎
