Some even provide workout clothes and shoes just in case you leave your equipment at home. If you're looking for help to stay in shape while on the road，check out these hotels.‎ Hotel Monaco Manager Ed Virtue，who loves riding，invites guests to ride with him on Wednesdays for one hour. He takes guests on a scenic tour of the city's famous monuments and historic sites (遗迹)，as well as a ride near the Potomac River. The hotel even supplies some electric bikes to people who want a more intense ride throughout the city.‎ Schofield Hotel It offers yoga mats and yoga programs.

Maybe they were busy talking, texting or checking updates on We Chat without looking at ‎ what was going on around them. As the number of this new “species” of human has kept rising, they have been given a new name—phubbers(低头族).‎ ‎ Recently, a cartoon created by students from China Central Academy of Fine Arts put this group of people under the spotlight. In the short film, phubbers with various social identities(身份) bury themselves in their phones. A doctor plays with his cell phone while letting his patient die, a pretty woman takes a selfie(自拍) in front of a car accident site, and a father loses his child without knowing about it while using his mobile phone. A chain of similar events finally leads to the destruction of the world.‎ ‎ Although the ending of the film sounds unrealistic, the damage phubbing can bring is real. Your health is the first to bear the effect and result of it. “Always bending your head to check your cell phone could damage your neck,” Guangming Daily quoted doctors’ words. “The neck is like a rope that breaks after long-term stretching.” Also, staring at cell phones for a long time will damage your eyesight gradually, according to the report.‎ ‎ But that’s not all. Being a phubber could also damage your social skills and drive you away from your friends and family. When getting together with family or friends, many people prefer to play their cell phones while others are chatting happily with each other and this creates a strange atmosphere, Qilu Evening News reported.‎ ‎ It can also cost your life. There have been lots of reports on phubbers who fell to their death, suffered accidents, and were robbed of their cell phones in broad daylight.‎ ‎ 24. Why does the author give the example of a cartoon in Paragraph 2?‎ ‎ A. To suggest phubbers will destroy the world.‎ ‎ B. To call for people to go walking without phones.‎ ‎ C. To advise students to create more cartoons like this.‎ ‎ D. To tell people of the bad effects of phubbing. ‎ ‎25. According to the passage, what risks may a phubber have?‎ ‎ ①Destructing the world. ②Affecting his social skills. ③Damaging his neck ‎ and eyesight.‎ ‎ ④Getting separated from his friends and family.‎ ‎ A. ①②④ B. ①②③④ C. ①③④ D. ②③④‎ ‎ 26. What’s the author’s attitude towards phubbing?‎ ‎ A.Negative. B. Confident. C. Supportive. D. Optimistic.‎ ‎ 27. What will be talked about in the following paragraph?‎ ‎ A. Methods of phubbing. B. Bad effects of pudding.‎ ‎ C. Daily life of phubbers. D. Ways to avoid the risks of phubbing.‎ C In the US, people prefer waiting for a table to sitting with people they don’t know. This means a hostess may not seat a small group until a small table is available, even if a large one is. If you are sitting at a table with people you don’t know, it is impolite to light up a cigarette without asking if it will disturb them. ‎ At American restaurants and coffee shops you are usually served tap water before you order. You may find the bread and butter is free，and if you order coffee, you may get a free refill. Most cities and towns have no rules about opening and closing time for stores or restaurants, though they usually do make rules for bars. Especially in large cities, stores may be open 24 hours a day. ‎ Serving in restaurants is often large, too large for many people. If you can’t finish your meal but would like to enjoy the food later, ask your waitress or waiter for a “doggie bag”. It may have a picture of a dog on it, but everybody knows you’re taking the food for yourself. ‎ Supper and dinner are both words for the evening meal. Some people have “Sunday dinner”, which means an especially big noon meal. ‎ Tipping plays an important role in American people’s daily life. It reflects a kind of good manners and appreciation for the services provided. Usually tips are not added to the check. They are not included in the price of the meal, either. Generally speaking, a tip of about 15％ is expected and you should leave it on the table when you leave. ‎ ‎28. Which of the following statements is true?‎ A. American people like sitting with people they don’t know.‎ B. A hostess will seat a small group at a large table if it’s available.‎ C. Americans think it impolite to smoke without asking when sitting with people they don’t know.‎ D.American people never sit with people they don’t know even if they have to wait.‎ ‎29. What is served before you order?‎ A. Cold water B. Butter C.Bread D. Coffee ‎30. What do American people always do when servings are too large for them?‎ A. They take the food home with a “doggie bag” for their dogs. ‎ B. They take the food home with a “doggie bag” and enjoy it later. ‎ C. They ask the waitress or waiter to keep the food for them. ‎ D. They just leave the food on the table and go away. ‎ ‎31. What can you learn about “tips” according to the last paragraph?‎ A. The price of the meal usually includes the tip.‎ B. People are not always expected to pay tips after a meal.‎ C.Customers should give a tip of about 25% of the price of the meal.‎ D. Tips are supposed to be left on the table when customers leave.‎ D In Modern society there is a great deal of argument about competition. Some value it highly, believing that it is responsible for social progress and prosperity; others say that competition is bad; that it sets one person against another; that it leads to unfriendly relationship between people.‎ I have taught many children who held the belief that their self-worth relied on how well they performed at tennis and other skills. For them, playing well and winning are often life-and-death affairs. In their single-minded pursuit（追求）of success, the development of many other human qualities is sadly forgotten.‎ However, while some seem to be lost in the desire to succeed, others take an opposite attitude. In a culture which values only the winner and pays no attention to the ordinary players, they strongly blame competition. Among the most vocal are youngsters who have suffered under competitive pressures from their parents or society. Teaching these young people, I often observe in them a desire to fail. They seem to seek failure by not trying to win or achieve success. By not trying, they always have an excuse: “I may have lost, but it doesn’t matter because I really didn’t try.” What is not usually admitted by themselves is the belief that if they had really tried and lost, that wound mean a lot. Such a loss would be a measure of their worth. Clearly, this belief is the same as that of the true competitors who try to prove themselves. Both are based on the mistaken belief that one’s self-respect relies on how well one performs in comparison with others. Both are afraid of not being valued. Only as this basic and often troublesome fear begins to disappear can we discover a new meaning in competition.‎ ‎32. What does this passage mainly talk about?‎ A. Competition helps to set up one’s self-respect. ‎ B. Competition is harmful to one’s development. ‎ C.People hold different opinions on competition. ‎ D. Failures are necessary experience in competition.‎ ‎33. Why do some people favor competition according to the passage?‎ ‎ A. It encourages individual efforts. B. It builds up a sense of duty.‎ ‎ C. It improves personal abilities. D. It pushes society forward.‎ ‎34. What is the similar belief of the true competitors and those with “a desire to fail”?‎ A. One’s success in competition calls for great efforts.‎ B. One’s achievement is determined by his particular skills.‎ C. One’s success relies largely on his firm belief of winning.‎ D. One’s worth lies in his performance compared with others.‎ ‎35. Which point of view may the author agree with?‎ A. Competition damages friendship among people.‎ B. Performance in competition determines one’s value.‎ C. Fear of failure should be removed in competition.‎ D. Winning should be a matter of life and death.‎ 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。‎ How to prepare for exams?‎ ‎ Here are some tips you can read with your child.‎ ‎ The first step in preparing for examinations is to set a fixed time each day to study and a schedule to say when to start the revision and for which subject. The plan should include how many chapters to revise and how many worksheets(活页练习题) to work on. 36 Parents who do not know the examination schedule can search “exam timetable” to see the official examination schedule. 37 ‎ ‎ The second thing is to decide on the place to study. Some need total silence in a library before they can concentrate while others like to have some background music like in the cafeteria. 38 So there is no need to tell your child to change the study place if he is producing the desired results.‎ ‎ 39 For lessons, pupils must participate in lessons and discussions actively. For exercise, work on the simple ones in the textbook. For theory, pupils can use the mind map method to summarize the facts.‎ ‎ At last, be smart. Focus on chapters that are the core of the subject or difficult chapters. 40 ‎ ‎ A. The mind map can help you a lot in your revision work.‎ ‎ B. Your child has to be self-disciplined (自律的) to follow the plan.‎ ‎ C. It is not necessary to read from the first to the last page.‎ ‎ D. The best time to start revision is one or two months before the examination.‎ ‎ E. Both are alright as long as your child is comfortable with it.‎ ‎ F. Next the most effective way to revise is to use an active approach.‎ ‎ G. Making good preparations counts.‎ 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，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。‎ No one is born a winner.
