M:Color plays an essential role in our life.For example,color is used to communicate life-saving information.To the driver of a vehicle,the green color means go and the red color means stop.You should always pull up when the traffic lights turn red.Besides,colors can irritate your eyes,increase your appetite,or even
change your mood.A delicious meal with appropriate colors can certainly make your mouth water.Good colors also help us in many other ways.Statistics show that in a sports competition a team wearing red has a higher chance of winning.Of course,it is largely due to the psychology of wearing red.Luck and ability can be more important.For animals,colors reflect their environment and their characteristics.For instance,a male peacock has its tail feathers of bright colors to win the attention of female peacocks.People often think that a rainbow is the most colorful,but for our artists,all they need are three colors,namely,red,blue and yellow.They are called the primary colors,colors that can not be made by mixing others together.And our artists can mix them together to create any color in the rainbow and hundreds of other shades in making art...

With bushfires continuing to swallow different parts of Australia,a local zoo in New South Wales—the state which is the easiest to catch fire—has hit the headlines with a heartwarming story.
Right in the line of a bushfire,the keepers of Mogo Wildlife Park managed to protect all 200 animals from harm after they received evacuation orders,according to reports.
Netizens were quick to react on social media and praised the bravery of the zoo keeper and staffs,as they stayed and managed to protect animals from uncontrolled fires and even sheltered some at their own house.
The 40-year-old zoo keeper,Chad Staples,described the situation as the worst catastrophe,which felt like Armageddon (大决战) here.Luckily,his team had made a precise plan ahead of time by moving everything flammable from the area and the larger animals to safe places.
What’s remarkable is that as the smaller ones needed extra shelter,Staples decided to take them to his own house.
“Right now in my house there are animals of all descriptions in all the different rooms.They are safe and protected...not a single animal lost,” he said.
BBC News also mentioned that “there’s a tiger to the back of the house”.
Some media outlets highlighted the “heroic job” in their headlines.Online users also reacted with thumbs-up and were glad to see all the staff and animals coming through the horrific fire.
Located in the southern coast of New South Wales,Mogo Wildlife Park houses Australia’s largest collection of primates,also including different and unique animals such as zebras,giraffes,rhinos and red pandas.

English Language Day is celebrated each year on April 23,the date when William Shakespeare,the greatest writer in the English language,was born.
Many people consider English as the unofficial “world language” because it is so widely used.English is the main language of business across the world.It is the most widely used language on the Internet and social media.
The first English Language Day was the result of work by the United Nations.A few years ago,the UN’s Educational,Scientific and Cultural Organization (the UNESCO)created Language Days for each of the UN’s six official languages.The aim was to celebrate the use of different languages around the world and in different cultures.Another goal was to campaign for equal use of all six official languages throughout the United Nations.The other five languages are Arabic,Chinese,French,Russian and Spanish.The UN celebrated its first English Language Day on April 23,2010.

Why do Chinese people love hot pot so much?As the winter months are coming in,more and more people are sitting around a table enjoying this kind of traditional meal.I find myself wondering what it is about this traditional meal,which has existed for more than 1,000 years.What makes it a Chinese food favorite?It seems that the answer lies beyond the dish itself.
Hot pot isn’t just designed to keep you warm during the cold months; it’s also a social experience.It’s a “theatre” cooked food that turns a meal into an event.There is a lot of fun for everyone to have in adding some foods to the hot pot.
Hot pot is eaten over two to three hours.For this reason,it is often considered an evening’s entertainment,and a time to spend with friends and families.However,many Westerners would be put off by the idea of other people sticking chopsticks in their food.When we come to eat at the table in the UK,we often have our own shares,although the experience is still a social one.
A similar experience to the hot pot can be found in Korean barbecue restaurants,which let you cook your own meat.This allows people to have their meat done however they want.
For most Westerners,the idea of going to a restaurant to cook their own food is very strange.But having a go,I find it’s now one of my favourite meals in Beijing.The steam from the pot left my clothes smelling of food when I got home,but perhaps this was also part of the experience.When the cold wind is blowing outside,I am sitting around with my good friends,eating and drinking.For me,it’s like a dinner party where my taste buds (味蕾) and my appetite are equally satisfied in the warm company of friends.
【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。火锅作为中国特有的饮食形式,不仅受到国人的喜爱,就连外国友人也赞不绝口!

B.It is a fun social experience.
C.It serves people with many kinds of foods.
D.It keeps people very warm in winter.

B.Over one hour.
C.About three hours.
D.All the evening.
答案C

阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
It is not difficult to prepare for exams.
You should review your notes regularly.Every one of you has formed the habit of taking notes.However that’s not enough.Make sure to review and expand upon your class notes regularly throughout the team. 36
Don’t cram (突击备考) at the last second.Evidence shows that students experience declining returns on their efforts when they attempt to study for four and five hours straight.So you shouldn’t be reviewing the night before the exam because you will wake up tired. 37 Obviously,it’s not worth the cost.
You should also complete a mock (模拟) test.If you complete it 3—4 days before an exam,you’ll then know where to focus your studying. 38 For your every subject,try answering a couple of potential questions on a timed,closed book basis and see how you do.Another simple way to conduct a mock test is to ask a friend or a classmate to give you an oral quiz based on contents in the textbooks or in your notes.
39 A group study session is a fantastic model to review and compare notes,ask each other questions,explain ideas to one another,and discuss the difficult concepts.To focus on the topic,do set an agenda and a specific time frame for your group study session.
40 The best food for the brain is sleep,so you’ll need enough sleep during exam times.Try and get good quality sleep.Don’t sleep with your books all over your bed or with lights,music or the computer on.
A.How can you finish this step?
B.Make sure to get plenty of sleep.
C.Make your room comfortable while sleeping.
D.Find a group of classmates to study with.
E.If so,you will not be able to focus during the exam.
F.Organise a study group before exams to discuss your notes.
G.Making good use of your notes will leave you well-prepared at exam time.

答案与解析
【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了地球上树木的现存状况。
56.that 考查表语从句连接词。分析句子结构可知,空处引导表语从句,从句成分和句意完整,故用that。
57.thought 考查动词时态。此处表示“比我们原以为的……”,故要用一般过去时。
58.calculation 考查名词。根据空前的a可知,此处要用名词形式。
59.followed 考查非谓语动词。follow与three之间有逻辑上的动宾关系,故用过去分词作后置定语。
60.to change 考查非谓语动词。be unable to do sth意为“不能做某事”,为固定搭配。
61.in 考查介词。in half意为“减半”。
62.the 考查冠词。根据后面的从句可知,此处应用定冠词the限定范围。

64.extremely 考查副词。根据句意及句子结构可知,空处作状语修饰形容词比较级higher,应用副词形式。
65.is needed/will be needed 考查动词时态、语态和主谓一致。主句主语effort与need之间为动宾关系,故用被动语态。主语为effort,谓语应用单数,故填is needed;if引导的条件状语从句表示将来要发生的动作,故主句也可用一般将来时,故也可填will be needed。

第二节(满分25分)
阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
In 1967,when I was 6 years old,my family moved to the small town of Oanaca,Nevada.My parents worked hard to feed us five girls.Though the community was small,everyone welcomed us and we soon made many friends.One family we grew to admire was the Wadsworths.
The first two years were filled with friendship and joy.But then disaster struck:Mrs Wadsworth died,leaving her husband with eight children that hadn’t grown up.One year later,Mr Wadsworth also passed away.
The entire town was heartbroken.Preparations were made to send the kids to their relatives,but the Wadsworth children had different plans.The oldest son,Brent,gathered all his brothers and sisters and held a family meeting.“Our parents taught us to be responsible for each other.They wouldn’t want us to be separated and unable to see each other frequently from now on,” he said seriously and firmly.The children all agreed and decided to make it on their own.
With their own efforts and the community’s care and help,the Wadsworth children grew healthily and happily.Grateful for the love from the community during their hardships,they were always ready to serve others and return the favour they had received.One such time was the Christmas of 1972.
Typically,on Christmas Eve all the children from the community would gather in the church building to attend the Christmas party,the highlight of which was a visit from Santa Claus.Our bishop (主教) heightened the experience by leaving the hall from time to time to check on the progress of Santa Claus.He was so convincing that all of us kids were close to exploding with excitement.A few moments later,Santa Claus would burst into the hall,shouting “Ho,ho,ho!” Then he would sit in front of the stage,take each child on his lap to listen to their Christmas wishes,and give each a paper bag filled with peanuts,an orange and a large candy cane.It was an event we eagerly looked forward to all year long.
注意:续写词数应为150左右。
But this Christmas would be different with the flu spreading through the town.
Unexpectedly,on Christmas Eve,a knock came at our front door.
参考范文
But this Christmas would be different with the flu spreading through the town.The flu occurred about ten days before Christmas.Unfortunately,all five of us girls came down with the virus.With Christmas Day drawing near,we just didn’t show any sign of recovery.So our parents warned us not to attend the Christmas party in case we would spread the flu to more people.We had no choice but to stay at home,feeling upset and depressed.We were awfully afraid that we’d have to go without Santa Claus and the long-expected event this Christmas.
Unexpectedly,on Christmas Eve,a knock came at our front door.I opened the door,only to find a Santa Claus standing right before me with several big paper bags in his arms! “Ho,ho,ho!” He shouted merrily with shining eyes.“I’ve heard there are some sick kids in this house.We can’t have them missing out on Christmas.” The voice sounded so young and familiar! Looking closer,we were shocked to discover that our personal Santa was Brent Wadsworth! Thanks to his special visit,we had the most memorable Christmas ever.

M:Color plays an essential role in our life.For example,color is used to communicate life-saving information.To the driver of a vehicle,the green color means go and the red color means stop.You should always pull up when the traffic lights turn red.Besides,colors can irritate your eyes,increase your appetite,or even
change your mood.A delicious meal with appropriate colors can certainly make your mouth water.Good colors also help us in many other ways.Statistics show that in a sports competition a team wearing red has a higher chance of winning.Of course,it is largely due to the psychology of wearing red.Luck and ability can be more important.For animals,colors reflect their environment and their characteristics.For instance,a male peacock has its tail feathers of bright colors to win the attention of female peacocks.People often think that a rainbow is the most colorful,but for our artists,all they need are three colors,namely,red,blue and yellow.They are called the primary colors,colors that can not be made by mixing others together.And our artists can mix them together to create any color in the rainbow and hundreds of other shades in making art...

With bushfires continuing to swallow different parts of Australia,a local zoo in New South Wales—the state which is the easiest to catch fire—has hit the headlines with a heartwarming story.
Right in the line of a bushfire,the keepers of Mogo Wildlife Park managed to protect all 200 animals from harm after they received evacuation orders,according to reports.
Netizens were quick to react on social media and praised the bravery of the zoo keeper and staffs,as they stayed and managed to protect animals from uncontrolled fires and even sheltered some at their own house.
The 40-year-old zoo keeper,Chad Staples,described the situation as the worst catastrophe,which felt like Armageddon (大决战) here.Luckily,his team had made a precise plan ahead of time by moving everything flammable from the area and the larger animals to safe places.
What’s remarkable is that as the smaller ones needed extra shelter,Staples decided to take them to his own house.
“Right now in my house there are animals of all descriptions in all the different rooms.They are safe and protected...not a single animal lost,” he said.
BBC News also mentioned that “there’s a tiger to the back of the house”.
Some media outlets highlighted the “heroic job” in their headlines.Online users also reacted with thumbs-up and were glad to see all the staff and animals coming through the horrific fire.
Located in the southern coast of New South Wales,Mogo Wildlife Park houses Australia’s largest collection of primates,also including different and unique animals such as zebras,giraffes,rhinos and red pandas.

English Language Day is celebrated each year on April 23,the date when William Shakespeare,the greatest writer in the English language,was born.
Many people consider English as the unofficial “world language” because it is so widely used.English is the main language of business across the world.It is the most widely used language on the Internet and social media.
The first English Language Day was the result of work by the United Nations.A few years ago,the UN’s Educational,Scientific and Cultural Organization (the UNESCO)created Language Days for each of the UN’s six official languages.The aim was to celebrate the use of different languages around the world and in different cultures.Another goal was to campaign for equal use of all six official languages throughout the United Nations.The other five languages are Arabic,Chinese,French,Russian and Spanish.The UN celebrated its first English Language Day on April 23,2010.

Why do Chinese people love hot pot so much?As the winter months are coming in,more and more people are sitting around a table enjoying this kind of traditional meal.I find myself wondering what it is about this traditional meal,which has existed for more than 1,000 years.What makes it a Chinese food favorite?It seems that the answer lies beyond the dish itself.
Hot pot isn’t just designed to keep you warm during the cold months; it’s also a social experience.It’s a “theatre” cooked food that turns a meal into an event.There is a lot of fun for everyone to have in adding some foods to the hot pot.
Hot pot is eaten over two to three hours.For this reason,it is often considered an evening’s entertainment,and a time to spend with friends and families.However,many Westerners would be put off by the idea of other people sticking chopsticks in their food.When we come to eat at the table in the UK,we often have our own shares,although the experience is still a social one.
A similar experience to the hot pot can be found in Korean barbecue restaurants,which let you cook your own meat.This allows people to have their meat done however they want.
For most Westerners,the idea of going to a restaurant to cook their own food is very strange.But having a go,I find it’s now one of my favourite meals in Beijing.The steam from the pot left my clothes smelling of food when I got home,but perhaps this was also part of the experience.When the cold wind is blowing outside,I am sitting around with my good friends,eating and drinking.For me,it’s like a dinner party where my taste buds (味蕾) and my appetite are equally satisfied in the warm company of friends.

第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)
阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
It is not difficult to prepare for exams.
You should review your notes regularly.Every one of you has formed the habit of taking notes.However that’s not enough.Make sure to review and expand upon your class notes regularly throughout the team. 36
Don’t cram (突击备考) at the last second.Evidence shows that students experience declining returns on their efforts when they attempt to study for four and five hours straight.So you shouldn’t be reviewing the night before the exam because you will wake up tired. 37 Obviously,it’s not worth the cost.
You should also complete a mock (模拟) test.If you complete it 3—4 days before an exam,you’ll then know where to focus your studying. 38 For your every subject,try answering a couple of potential questions on a timed,closed book basis and see how you do.Another simple way to conduct a mock test is to ask a friend or a classmate to give you an oral quiz based on contents in the textbooks or in your notes.
39 A group study session is a fantastic model to review and compare notes,ask each other questions,explain ideas to one another,and discuss the difficult concepts.To focus on the topic,do set an agenda and a specific time frame for your group study session.
40 The best food for the brain is sleep,so you’ll need enough sleep during exam times.Try and get good quality sleep.Don’t sleep with your books all over your bed or with lights,music or the computer on.
A.How can you finish this step?
B.Make sure to get plenty of sleep.
C.Make your room comfortable while sleeping.
D.Find a group of classmates to study with.
E.If so,you will not be able to focus during the exam.
F.Organise a study group before exams to discuss your notes.
G.Making good use of your notes will leave you well-prepared at exam time.

第二节(满分25分)
阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
In 1967,when I was 6 years old,my family moved to the small town of Oanaca,Nevada.My parents worked hard to feed us five girls.Though the community was small,everyone welcomed us and we soon made many friends.One family we grew to admire was the Wadsworths.
The first two years were filled with friendship and joy.But then disaster struck:Mrs Wadsworth died,leaving her husband with eight children that hadn’t grown up.One year later,Mr Wadsworth also passed away.
The entire town was heartbroken.Preparations were made to send the kids to their relatives,but the Wadsworth children had different plans.The oldest son,Brent,gathered all his brothers and sisters and held a family meeting.“Our parents taught us to be responsible for each other.They wouldn’t want us to be separated and unable to see each other frequently from now on,” he said seriously and firmly.The children all agreed and decided to make it on their own.
With their own efforts and the community’s care and help,the Wadsworth children grew healthily and happily.Grateful for the love from the community during their hardships,they were always ready to serve others and return the favour they had received.One such time was the Christmas of 1972.
Typically,on Christmas Eve all the children from the community would gather in the church building to attend the Christmas party,the highlight of which was a visit from Santa Claus.Our bishop (主教) heightened the experience by leaving the hall from time to time to check on the progress of Santa Claus.He was so convincing that all of us kids were close to exploding with excitement.A few moments later,Santa Claus would burst into the hall,shouting “Ho,ho,ho!” Then he would sit in front of the stage,take each child on his lap to listen to their Christmas wishes,and give each a paper bag filled with peanuts,an orange and a large candy cane.It was an event we eagerly looked forward to all year long.
注意:续写词数应为150左右。
But this Christmas would be different with the flu spreading through the town.
Unexpectedly,on Christmas Eve,a knock came at our front door.
参考范文
But this Christmas would be different with the flu spreading through the town.The flu occurred about ten days before Christmas.Unfortunately,all five of us girls came down with the virus.With Christmas Day drawing near,we just didn’t show any sign of recovery.So our parents warned us not to attend the Christmas party in case we would spread the flu to more people.We had no choice but to stay at home,feeling upset and depressed.We were awfully afraid that we’d have to go without Santa Claus and the long-expected event this Christmas.
Unexpectedly,on Christmas Eve,a knock came at our front door.I opened the door,only to find a Santa Claus standing right before me with several big paper bags in his arms! “Ho,ho,ho!” He shouted merrily with shining eyes.“I’ve heard there are some sick kids in this house.We can’t have them missing out on Christmas.” The voice sounded so young and familiar! Looking closer,we were shocked to discover that our personal Santa was Brent Wadsworth! Thanks to his special visit,we had the most memorable Christmas ever.
