It felt good taking my two grown sons and daughter to a nice sit-down restaurant instead of the fast food places we usually ate at. The meal was delicious, and we all had a good time just being together. The gift card covered almost all of the check. I reached into my wallet to get enough cash to cover the rest. I saw two bills in the front of it. The first would cover the rest of the check. The second would cover the check and give the waitress a nice tip. I reached down to pick out the first one.At that moment, my mind flashed back to 30 years ago. I was working as a busboy (餐厅勤杂工) in a restaurant much like the one we were in. It was long hours of hard work for low pay. I went home just barely making enough to feed my young family. I also remembered how more than once I saw the waitresses counting their small tips while worrying about how they were going to pay the rent and buy their kids the things they needed. I remembered the pain in their eyes and saw the sadness in their faces at the end of the day.I blinked (眨眼睛) and was back in the present again, with my fingers touching the smaller bill in my wallet. I smiled, pushed it back down and picked out the larger bill. I folded it around the gift card and covered both of them with the check. As we all got up from the table, I handed them to the hardworking waitress. “You keep the change,” I said with a smile and a happy heart.We are all one family in this world. We live together and suffer together. Do your best to be kind. Do your best to be a good person and replace the suffering with joy.What do we know from the first paragraph?A. The author’s family had a hard life.B. The gift card was enough to pay the check.C. The author seldom ate together with his family.D. The author values spending time with his children.22. The author mentioned his working experience as a busboy to ______.A. describe struggles he faced in the past B. complain about his job at the restaurantC. explain why he chose the larger bill D. show how hard waiters work23. How did the author feel after giving the tip to the waitress?A. Moved. B. Pleased. C. Puzzled. D. Concerned.24. What is the author’s main purpose in writing this article?A. To tell people to be kind.B. To remind us not to forget our hard days.C. To stress the importance of tipping servers.To show that we should thank friends and family.Which is the best title of the passage? Tipping: a kind traditionHelping hand for serversWorking as a busboyKindness makes the world go around BIn September, a tragedy happened on the west coast of Tasmania, Australia. As many as 380 pilot whales became stranded (搁浅) in shallow water there and later died. This might have been Australia’s largest stranding event on record, the BBC reported.But mass whale stranding is not uncommon. For centuries, it has happened all over the world and has puzzled scientists. Scientists say the cause is often unknown. But they have offered many different explanations.Some say the whales chase small fish for food and end up in shallow water because they are not paying attention to where they are going.Others think the stranding has something to do with Earth’s geomagnetic field. They say that a geomagnetic compass in whales’ brains controls their position. Unusual changes in Earth’s magnetic field can affect the whales’ compasses and send them in the wrong direction. Another explanation suggests that mass stranding is caused by the close relationships that whales have. Pilot whales travel in large groups. One lead whale might mistakenly lead the whole group to shallow water. “And if one gets into trouble, the others will not leave,” said Sheryl Gibney, a leading biologist from New Zealand. “Some will come in and try to help, they get trapped on the beach, then more will come.” The whales are trapped by mistake or out of sympathy. Once they get stranded, they will likely die. According to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration of the US, less than 10 percent of all stranded whales survive.26. What do we know about the stranding?A. It happened on the east coast of Australia. B. It is commonly seen in September each year. C. It caused the death of over 300 pilot whales. D. It broke a world record. 27. What does the word “chase” in Paragraph 3 mean?A. run after B. give up C. help with D. compete against28. According to Gibney, what will other whales do if their lead whale gets in trouble?A. They will change their direction. B. They will stay and try to help it. C. They will push it near the beach. D. They will travel with another group.29. What is the story mainly about?A. How human activity has affected whales. B. What might cause whale strandings. C. How whales find their direction while traveling. D. What scientists are doing to save stranded whales.30. Where is the passage from?A. Travel journal B. Tourism magazine C. News website D. Science textbook第三节 七选五 （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。Earth is home to around 7,000 languages, around half of which are expected to disappear by 2100. Languages disappear for many reasons. Sometimes younger generations stop learning a language because parents want children to fit in. 31 Native American children of the late-19th century were required to attend boarding schools where educators forbade them from speaking their native languages.The United Nations ranks endangered languages according to their risk level. For example, a “critically endangered” language is one that even grandparents don’t speak often. New York’s Onondaga language is an example with only 50 speakers left. An “extinct” language has no speakers. It is gone forever. Alaska’s Eyak language is one example. 32 Various animals and plants benefit our environment. In the same way, different languages contribute to cultural diversity. 33 Languages can show how a society looks at the world and what it values. A language may describe something in a way that is funny, too. In Welsh, it rains not cats and dogs , but old wives and walking sticks.The Endangered Language Alliance wants to save languages from disappearing. 34 However, its efforts are limited. If an endangered language is going to make a real comeback, it’ll probably get its start in schools. For nearly 100 years, public schools in Hawaii did not teach the Hawaiian language. Now students can keep learning in Hawaiian from elementary schools to college and beyond.35 At least one did. In 1881, a Jewish linguist named Eliezer Ben-Yehuda brought the 3,000-year-old language Hebrew back to life. Today it is one of the official languages of the country of Israel, with more than 4 million speakers.A. The last person who spoke it died in 2008.B. Why should we save endangered languagesC. Saving these languages benefits our understanding of other cultures.D. With just 5 speakers left,it is absolutely endangered.E. Can a language with zero native speakers come back to lifeF. Sometimes societies force minorities to give up their language.G. The nonprofit group finds native speakers and records their stories.第四节 完形填空 （共20小题：每小题1分，满分20分）阅读下面短文，掌握其大意，然后从21—40各题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项，并在答题纸上将该选项标号涂黑。During the war, my husband was stationed at an army camp in a desert in California.

I feel proud knowing your interest in Chinese history. As for my favourite figure in Chinese history, it must be Wei Yuan, a great thinker in the late Qing Dynasty. He, in his book, Haiguo Tuzhi (Maps and Records of the World), introduced modern technologies and ideas to China. That opened our eyes to the world. In fact, he inspired me to major in English in college to be a bridge between China and the world. Interested in knowing more? I can find you some books! Just let me know.Yours,Li Hua
