The loss of sight and hearing threw him into such sorrow(悲伤) that he tried a few times to put an end to his life. His family, especially his wife, did their best to tend and comfort him and finally he regained the will to live.‎ One hot summer afternoon, he was taking a walk with a stick near his house when a thunderstorm started all at once. He stood under a large tree to avoid getting wet, but he was struck by the lightning. Witnesses thought he was dead but he woke up some 20 minutes later lying face down in muddy water at the base of the tree. He was trembling badly, but when he opened his eyes, he could hardly believe what he saw —— a plough and a wall. When Mrs. Edwards came running up to him, shouting to their neighbors to call for help, he could see her and hear her voice for the first time in nearly ten years.‎ The news of Robert regaining his sight and hearing quickly spread, and many doctors came to examine him. Most of them said that he regained his sight and hearing from the shock he got from the lightning. However, none of them could give a convincing answer as to why this should have happened. The only reasonable explanation given by one doctor was that, since Robert lost his sight and hearing as a result of sudden shock, perhaps, the only way for him to regain them was by another sudden shock.‎ ‎21. The reason for Robert’s attempts to kill himself was that________.‎ A. a terrible traffic accident happened to him B. he had to live in a dark and silent world C. he was struck by the lightning once more D. nobody in the world cared about him ‎22. What was Robert doing when he was struck by the lightning?‎ A. Sheltering for the rain under a tree. B. Driving a car.‎ C. Taking a walk with a stick. D. Lying on the ground.‎ ‎23. Which of the following statements is NOT true?‎ A. Robert had been deaf and blind for nearly ten years. ‎ B. Robert hid himself under the tree for 20 minutes.‎ C. Robert could hear his wife’s shouting for help when he woke up.‎ D. The family’s love helped Robert regain confidence to live.‎ ‎24. We can infer from the text that________.‎ A. there was no accurate explanation for Robert's recovery B. many doctors came because Robert was badly injured C. Robert’s wife sent for doctors immediately after the shock D. a sudden injury in the head led to Robert's recovery B People aren’t walking any more---if they can figure out a way to avoid it.‎ I felt superior(不为……所动) about this matter until the other day I took my car to mail a small parcel. The journey is a matter of 281 steps. But I used the car. And I wasn’t in any hurry, either. I had merely become one more victim of a ‎ national sickness: motorosis.‎ It is an illness to which I had thought myself immune(免疫的), for I was brought up in the tradition of going to places on my own two legs. At that time, we regarded 25 miles as good day’s walk and the ability to cover such a distance in ten hours as sign of strength and skill. It did not occur to us that walking was a hardship. And the effect was lasting. When I was 45 years old I raced -–and beat-—a teenage football player the 168 steps up the Stature of Liberty.‎ Such enterprises today are regarded by many middle-aged persons as bad for the heart. But a well-known British physician, Sir Adolphe Abrahams, pointed out recently that hearts and bodies need proper exercise. A person who avoids exercise is more likely to have illnesses than one who exercises regularly. And walking is an ideal form of exercise--- the most familiar and natural of all.‎ It was Henry Thoreau who showed mankind the richness of going on foot. The man walking can learn the trees, flower, insects, birds and animals, the significance of seasons, the very feel of himself as a living creature in a living world. He cannot learn in a car.‎ The car is a convenient means of transport, but we have made it our way of life. Many people don’t dare to approach nature any more; to them the world they were born to enjoy is all threat. To them security is a steel river thundering on a concrete road. And much of their thinking takes place while waiting for the traffic light to turn green.‎ I say that the green of forests is the mind’s best light. And none but the man on foot can evaluate what is basic and everlasting.‎ ‎25. What is the national sickness?‎ A. Walking too much B. Traveling too much C. Driving cars too much D. Climbing stairs too much.‎ ‎26. What was life like when the author was young?‎ A. People usually went around on foot. B. people often walked 25 miles a day C. People used to climb the Statue of Liberty. D. people considered a ten-hour walk as a hardship.‎ ‎27. The author mentions Henry Thoreau to prove that______.‎ A. middle-aged people like getting back to nature B. walking in nature helps enrich one’s mind C. people need regular exercise to keep fit D. going on foot prevents heart disease ‎28. What is the author’s intention of writing this passage?‎ A. To tell people to reflect(思考) more on life. B. To recommend people to give up driving C. To advise people to do outdoor activities D. To encourage people to return to walking C Ever get that feeling you’re being watched? Well, if you’re a dog-owner, you ‎ may have a point. Dogs are able to watch people’s interactions with one another to determine who holds yummier treats, according to a new study. This study joins others that show dogs are good observers of human behaviors and feelings. It offers evidence that dogs use information not only from people’s direct interactions with them, but also their interactions with one another.‎ In the study, dogs watched a man ask two women for some of their corns. Both women gave the man corns when he asked, but in response to one woman, the man showed his enthusiasm and said the corns were so delicious. In response to the other woman, he gave the corns back and called them gross（in Spanish；the study was conducted in Argentina）. After these interactions, the man left and an assistant holding the dog let the dog go. While many dogs didn’t approach either woman, the dogs that did have a preference tended to prefer the woman with the yummier(美味的) food.‎ Other studies of dogs’ people-watching ability have found dogs are able to tell the difference between happy and sad faces in their owners. They prefer people who give others food when asked over people who don’t give others food. And in one study, dogs turned toward crying people more often than toward talking people.‎ So how much do dogs really understand about the humans around them? That’s not totally settled yet. In a strange twist to the Argentine study above, when the researchers tried an experiment in which they put two plates of corns on a table and had a man react to each plate, dogs didn’t preferentially approach the tastier plate afterward. You could say dogs watch for the interaction between two persons, not just how a person reacts. Yet a previous study found dogs will choose boxes that people reacted to happily, but not boxes people reacted to with a disgusted face.‎ Well, either way, you can be sure Fluffs is keeping an eye on you, to the best of her ability. The study was published in the journal PLOS One.‎ ‎29. What does the study mentioned in this passage show?‎ A. Dogs prefer yummier foods. B. Dogs can read human actions and feelings.‎ ‎ C. Dogs can interact with humans easily. D. Dogs like to copy human’s behavior.‎ ‎30. What does the underlined word “gross” probably mean?‎ A. Healthy. B. Disgusting. C. Yummy. D. Hot.‎ ‎31. Which is one of the procedures of the Argentine study?‎ A. The man had different reactions to the food received. B. One of the women didn’t give the food to the man.‎ ‎ C. The assistant accompanied the dogs to get the food. D. Many dogs went to one of the women.‎ ‎32. What can be concluded from Paragraph 4?‎ A. Interactions between two persons confuse dogs. B. Dogs never understand the reaction of one person.‎ C. The findings of some studies are controversial. D. Dogs have good interactions with one another.‎ D The National Gallery Description：‎ The National Gallery is the British national art museum built on the north side of Trafalgar Square in London.

It can help us to develop the habit of thinking in English. If we persist in(坚持) this practice, gradually we’ll learn how to express 73  (we) in English. In keeping a diary in English, we certainly run up against many  74  (difficult). In the first place, it often happens that we have trouble in  75  (find) appropriate words and phrases to give expression to our mind. Secondly, there  76  (be) many idiomatic ways of saying things in Chinese. And it is   77 (extreme) hard for us to put them into English properly. As far as I am concerned, my suggestion is  78  we should always have a notebook and a Chinese-English dictionary within easy reach. Whenever something beats us, we can first put it down in our notebook and then consult our dictionary. We can also ask our English teacher  79  help, if necessary. In short, I believe that it is of great use to keep a diary in English for 80  development of our writing skills.‎ 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） ‎ 文中共有 10处语言错误，每句中最多有两处。错误仅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(＼)划掉。 ‎ 修改：在错的词下画一横线（___），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。‎ Nowadays millions of people of all age take pleasure in a hobby which is both interested and fun.
