All Alice Waters wanted was bread, jam and lettuce that tasted real, with a cup of good coffee or a glass of wine on the side. The founder of Chez Panisse, the California restaurant famous for launching the farm-to-table movement, certainly didn’t plan to start a revolution.
Returning to the United States in 1965 after studying in France, Waters missed the delicious food and community of the little cafes where she spent most of her time. “The United States was a land of frozen food, so eating even just fresh bread and jam was an extremely pleasant surprise to me,” says Waters. “And spending time in restaurants with friends… it was very important to me.”
One day, an idea struck Waters that maybe her cooking and sense of community could help her make some money. Believing they could do anything, she and a group of friends raised money, found a house in Berkeley and opened a little restaurant called Chez Panisse in 1971.
Most ingredients Waters could find were from industrial farms. They tasted totally different from the ones her parents planted during World War II and the ones she had enjoyed in France. Thus she began a search for suppliers who would grow good ingredients.
“I was looking for taste. And I couldn’t find taste until I met the local organic farmers who were growing vegetables for flavor,” Waters recalls. “I realized that I would be dependent on them for the success of my restaurant.”
At first, the finances were a disaster. If any of the ingredients didn’t taste right, chefs threw them out. Staff had to taste the wine to sell it. That meant thousands of dollars of wine disappeared on a regular basis. People who offered ingredients were given meals in trade.
But Chez Panisse had lines out of the front door from the very first night. Waters’ sense of taste and her dedication to making the best food possible kept people coming back. It didn’t take long for Chez Panisse to catch the attention of foodies (“吃货”). Throughout its existence, the restaurant has earned the highest praise of many critics. It has sometimes been called the best restaurant in America.
Now 72, Waters is not content with staying at home and cooking in her kitchen. Last September, she flew to Washington D. C., to meet members of Congress to discuss the benefits of free lunch for all schoolchildren.
Many people have called Waters unrealistic over the course of her 45-year fight for good food. Nevertheless, her single-mindedness ended up sparking a farm-to-table movement. “She didn’t start Chez Panisse to change the world,” said Marion Nestle, a New York University nutrition professor. “But what she did was absolutely revolutionary. She’s a force and deserves every bit of recognition that comes her way.”
4. Alice Waters started Chez Panisse in order to .
A. launch a farm-to-table revolution
B. support the local organic farmers
C. allow all schoolchildren in the United States to have free lunch
D. bring France’s style of cooking and sense of community to her home country

A. organic vegetables were very expensive
B. the housing rent in Berkeley was very high
C. some customers refused to pay for their meals.
D. Waters put huge emphasis on good food and ingredients
6. According to the article，Chez Panisse’s success can be attributed to . .
① the great flavor of its dishes
② the ideal location of the restaurant
③ the huge effort Waters put into her cause
④ support from multiple foodies
A. ①③ B. ②④
C. ①④ D. ②③
7. What would be the best title for the passage?
A. The Secret of Catering Revolution
B. The Power of Farm-To-Table
C. The Recipe for Successful Business
D. The Movement of Organic Food
【答案】4. D 5. D 6. A 7. B
【解析】Alice Waters 是Chez Panisse的创始人，在加利福尼亚农场以推出农场餐桌运动而闻名。Alice Waters 创办 Chez Panisse是为了把法国的烹饪风格和社区意识带到她的祖国。她的成功归功于菜肴的香味和她为事业付出的巨大。故选A。

5. D
细节理解题。根据第六段中At first, the finances were a disaster. If any of the ingredients didn’t taste right, chefs threw them out. Staff had to taste the wine to sell it. That meant thousands of dollars of wine disappeared on a regular basis.可知Waters把重点放在好的食物和配料上。故选D。
6. A
细节理解题。根据倒数第三段中Waters’ sense of taste and her dedication to making the best food possible kept people coming back. It didn’t take long for Chez Panisse to catch the attention of foodies (“吃货”). Throughout its existence, the restaurant has earned the highest praise of many critics. Chez Panisse的成功归功于 the great flavor of its dishes菜肴的香味；the huge effort Waters put into her cause. 巨大的努力注入了她的事业。故选A。
7. B
主旨大意题。根据第一段第二句The founder of Chez Panisse, the California restaurant famous for launching the farm-to-table movement, certainly didn’t plan to start a revolution.根据最后一段第一、二句Many people have called Waters unrealistic over the course of her 45-year fight for good food.

C
Neuroscientists have explained the risky, aggressive or just plain baffling behavior of teenagers as the product of a brain that is somehow compromised. Groundbreaking research in the past 10 years, however, shows that this view is wrong. The teen brain is not defective. It is not a half-baked adult brain, either. It has been forged by evolution to function differently from that of a child or an adult.
The most important of the teen brain’s features is its ability to change in response to the environment by modifying the communication networks that connect brain regions. It allows teenagers to make enormous progress in thinking and socialization. But the change also makes them sensitive to dangerous behavior and serious mental disorders.
The most recent studies indicate that the riskiest behaviors arise from a mismatch between the maturation of networks in the limbic system(边缘系统), which drives emotions at adolescence, and the maturation of networks in the prefrontal cortex（前额皮质）, which occurs later and promotes sound judgment and the control of impulses. Indeed, we now know that one’s prefrontal cortex continues to change noticeably until his 20s. And yet adolescence seems to be starting earlier, extending the “mismatch years.”
The plasticity of networks linking brain regions—and not the growth of those regions, as previously thought—is key to eventually behaving like an adult. Understanding that, and knowing that a widening gap between the development of emotional and judgment networks is happening in young people today, can help parents, teachers, counselors and teenagers themselves. People will better see that behavior such as risk-taking and turning away from parents and toward peers are not signs of cognitive or emotional problems. They are a natural result of brain development, a normal part of adolescents learning how to negotiate with a complex world.
The same understanding can also help adults decide when to intervene. A 15-year-old girl’s departure from her parents’ tastes in clothing, music or politics may be a source of anxiety for Mom and Dad but does not indicate mental illness. A 16-year-old boy’s tendency to skateboard without a helmet or to accept risky dares from friends is not unimportant but is more likely a sign of short-range thinking and peer pressure than a desire to hurt himself. Knowing more about the unique teen brain will help all of us learn how to separate unusual behavior that is age-appropriate from that which might indicate illness. Such awareness could help society reduce the rates of teen addiction, motor vehicle accidents and depression.
8. What is the closest meaning to the underlined word in paragraph 1?
A. disabled.
B. unmatured.
C. intelligent.
D. effective.
9. What can we know about the changeability of teen’s brains?
A. It is a double-edged sword.
B. It is predictable and avoidable.
C. It results from serious functional disorders.
D. It is related to their brain development in the childhood.
10. The limbic system and the prefrontal cortex are mentioned in paragraph 3 to .
A. show the differences between them
B. explain what leads to teens’ riskiest behavior
C. explain the relationship between early adolescence and them
D. show how the mismatch between their maturation of networks happens
11. What is the last paragraph mainly about?
A. The significance of the new discovery.
B. The important role adults in teenagers’ development.
C. Possible cognitive and emotional problems of teenagers.
D. Long-term prospects for the research of teenagers’ brains.
【答案】8. A 9. A 10. C 11. A
【解析】青少年不时表现出危险的或攻击性的举动，他们的很多行为常常令人大惑不解。本文通过最近的研究表明，青少年大脑最为显著的特点是其能通过调整脑区间的网络连接以适应环境变化。这种特殊的可变性，或者说可塑性，是一把双刃剑。青少年最为危险的行为源于边缘系统的脑组织与前额皮质脑组织的成熟期不一致，前者引起情绪反应，在青春期时快速发育成熟，而负责理智判断和冲动控制的后者发育较晚。文章并论述了新发现的重大意义。
8. A

9. A
推理判断题。根据第二段中It allows teenagers to make enormous progress in thinking and socialization. But the change also makes them sensitive to dangerous behavior and serious mental disorders. 它可以使青少年的思考和社交能力突飞猛进。然而，这种变化也容易滋长危险行为，使他们容易患上严重的精神障碍。可知，这种特殊的可变性，或者说可塑性，是一把双刃剑。故选A。
10. C
推理判断题。根据第三段中Indeed, we now know that one’s prefrontal cortex continues to change noticeably until his 20s. And yet adolescence seems to be starting earlier, extending the “mismatch years. 实际上，我们现已知道人类的前额皮质直到20多岁还在不断发生显著变化。而如今，青春期似乎越来越提前，使得这段“不一致时间”比以前更长。由此可知，在第3段提到了边缘系统和前额叶皮层是为了解释青春期早期与他们之间的关系。故选C。
11. A
段落大意题。根据最后一段的第一句The same understanding can also help adults decide when to intervene. 上述认识还可以帮助成年人决定何时作出干预。 和最后一句 Such awareness could help society reduce the rates of teen addiction, motor vehicle accidents and depression. 也将帮助社会降低青少年成瘾、性传播疾病、机动车事故、意外怀孕、杀人、抑郁和自杀的比率。由此可知，最后一段主要在讲新发现的重大意义。故选A。
D
A cab company in one of Japan’s major cities is introducing silent taxi drivers. Miyako Taxi, which is based in Kyoto, shows the new idea in March. The business is currently operating five “Silence Taxis” across the city.
The cars look like any ordinary taxi，but a notice written on the back of the passenger seat inform passengers that they have entered one of the new silent fleet. Drivers will offer a greeting when their passenger enters the car, and aside from confirming the route they will not engage in small talk. The drivers can indulge in conversation, only if they are spoken to first, and they are also allowed to communicate in emergency situations.
Announcing the idea, Miyako Taxi said: “This service is currently in a trial stage, with the goal of creating an in-car atmosphere that provides the most comfortable ride for passengers through limiting the driver’s speaking.” According to Japan Today, they made the move after hearing reports from passengers that they were fed up being forced to chat with their drivers.
The company will assess the popularity of the trial before deciding whether to expand it and roll it out across more of their drivers.
Language and speaking is at the heart of another issue facing Uber drivers, after lost a High Court Battle to block written tests in London. Drivers applying for a minicab license in the capital will now have to pass the written exam following Uber’s failed challenge against Transport for London (TfL). The company argued it could see up to 33,000 existing drivers lose their licences under the new rule.
The company’s London head, Tom Elvidge: vowed to challenge the rule and said, “We’ve always supported spoken English skills, but writing an essay has nothing to do with communicating with passengers or getting them safely from A to B.”
12. According to the passage, the “Silent taxis” .
A. has gained wide popularity in Japan.
B. has not operated yet.
C. looks like ordinary taxi.
D. is not safe enough for passengers.
13. When we are in the “Silent Taxis” .
A. no one can say anything during the driving.
B. drivers are allowed to speak in emergency situations.
C. greeting is not allowed as well.
D. the fare is free if we say nothing during the driving.
14. What is the purpose of the “Silent Taxis” according to the passage?
A. Creating a more comfortable atmosphere in the taxi for passengers.
B. Ensuring a safer atmosphere in the taxi for passengers.
C. Attracting more passengers to take taxis.
D. Changing the impression of the taxi driver in Japan.
15. What is the attitude of Tom Elvidge to the “Silent Taxis”?
A. Indifferent.
B. Supportive.
C. Unclear.
D. Negative.
【答案】12. C 13. B 14. A 15. C
【解析】本文介绍日本一种新型的出租车“Silence Taxis”。
12. C
细节理解题。根据第二段第一句The cars look like any ordinary taxi可知，“Silent taxis”看起来像普通的出租车。故选C。
13. B
细节理解题。根据第二段最后一句they are also allowed to communicate in emergency situations.可知，当人们在“Silent Taxis”里时，司机可以在紧急情况下发言。故选B。

15. C
推理判断题。根据最后一段The company’s London head, Tom Elvidge: vowed to challenge the rule and said, “We’ve always supported spoken English skills, but writing an essay has nothing to do with communicating with passengers or getting them safely from A to B.”可知，Tom Elvidge对“Silent Taxis”的态度并不清楚。故选C。
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。
Have you used “um…” “like…” “you know…” in your speech? Catch words(口头禅) are unnecessary words used to fill up dead paces while you speak. Speaking too many catch words is like a bad habit that we are unaware of. While most people tend to ignore it in everyday conversation, in a formal speech or an interview, too many catch words can make even the best presentation look bad. ___16___
Stop when we are in doubt. Catch words are used more often when a person is unsure about the sentence to use next. _____17_____If you are lost or in doubt over what to say next, just stop speaking, take a long pause, breathe in , figure out what to say and start again.
Speak consciously and slowly. If the speech is too long and you talk continuously without thinking, then you might also be pushing in a few catch words in between.
___18___It is best to memorize the tricky parts of the speech, like the introduction and the conclusion where a majority of the catch words are used.
___19___ Preparing for the speech is very important when trying to remove catch words. Make it a point to pause when there is a comma or give two pauses at the end of the sentence. If certain words in the speech need to be emphasized then underline them and practice them as they need to be said.
Avoid catch words in conversations. Get a friend or your partner to help you out when rehearsing a conversation. ___20___ Although it can be an unpleasant and often embarrassing process, but in the long run it helps in cutting down on catch words.
A. Practise your speech when you can.
B. Remember the saying that silence is golden.
C. Therefore we can find out best friends to guide us well.
D. Anytime you use a catch word, the friend can point it out.
E. So we should learn some ways to avoid speaking such words.
F. Structure the speech well to include as much information as is needed.
G. The mind is so busy trying to figure out what to say that there is a strong urge to speak such words.
【答案】16. E 17. G
18. F 19. A
20. D
【解析】本文介绍一些克服口头禅的方法。
16. E
根据上句：太多的口头禅会让最好的演示看起来很糟糕。由此可知，所以我们应该学会避免说这样的话。故选E。
17. G
根据下文：如果你对下一步说什么感到困惑或怀疑，停止说话，进行一个长的停顿，吸气，想清楚该说什么然后重新开始。可知上句的意思是：大脑正忙着想说些什么，以致于有强烈的冲动要说这样的话。故选G。
18. F
根据上句：如果演讲时间太长，你没有思考就不停地说话，然后你也可以在中间插入几个词。再根据空格下句：最好记住演讲中棘手的部分。由此可知：把演讲组织得好，包括必要的信息。故选F。
19. A
根据下句：当试图删除一些口头禅时，为演讲做准备是非常重要的。可知，尽可能地练习你的演讲。故选A。
20. D
根据上句：在排练对话时找个朋友或你的搭档帮忙。再根据空格下句：虽然这可能是一个令人不愉快且常常令人尴尬的过程，但是从长远利益看它有助于减少口头禅。句中的it指的就是“朋友给你指出口头禅这件事”，由此可知，任何时候你使用一个口头禅时，朋友都可以指出它。故选D。
【名师点睛】
做七选五时，“尤其代词不可放”是说：在填空处的前后语境中出现的一些代词不可忽视。有这样一道题：”They can be rich resources to improve your knowledge.”我接着就问学生“该选项中凭空多出一个代词they，这说明什么问题？”学生回答：“代词是起替代作用的，一定是前文出现的事物被they替代了，找到被替代的名词就可以了。”结果往文中一找，前面的语境是“Volunteering brings together all kinds of people.”。这下同学们就明白了，原来they替代的就是前文的all kinds of people短语。本题did小题，空后一句话Although it can be an unpleasant and often embarrassing process, but in the long run it helps in cutting down on catch words.中的it指的就是“朋友给你指出口头禅这件事”，故答案为D. Anytime you use a catch word, the friend can point it out.

45. understood
46. naturally
47. what 48. to know
49. with 50. sorts
【解析】孩子们的俚语目的之一就是阻止成年人明白他们在说什么。研究表明大多数成年人不能理解常见俚语的含义。
41. 句意：孩子们的俚语目的之一就是阻止成年人明白他们在说什么。根据句意可知句子用一般现在时态，句子主语one of---，故答案为is。

43. 此空是it做形式主语，真正的主语是that引导的主语从句，故答案为it。
44. a lack of+名词形式，缺乏---；aware有意识的，awareness意识，可知答案为awareness。
45. 此处是with的独立主格结构。with+宾语+过去分词，“表达饮食失调的短语和不高兴不被理解”，可知答案为understood。
46. 副词修饰动词，故答案为naturally。
47. 句意：这让一些成年人对孩子们所说的话感到不确定。介词about后面是宾语从句，从句缺少引导词，缺少主语，故答案为what。
48. 固定搭配：expect sb. to do sth.期盼某人做某事，故答案为to know。
49. 句意：在线安全从对话开始。可知答案为with。

As summer vacation are coming soon, my classmates are trying very hardly to get train tickets to go home. But I have made up my minds to spend the vacation far from home for first time in my life. My parents have agreed to visiting me, and I will have a different vacation. When they came here, I will show them around my university and the city just as well. I have decided to buy them some nice gifts. It will be a big surprising for them. My parents have done a lot for me, and I think it was high time that I did anything special to express my thanks.
【答案】1.are—is
2.hardly—hard
3.minds—mind
4.for first time 加the
5.visiting—visit
6.came—come
7.just去掉
8.their—them
9.surprising—surprise
10.anything—something
【解析】１．考查主谓一致。此句中的主语是summer vacation，暑假，并无复数之意，所以谓语动词应该用单数形式。故将are改为is。
２．考查副词。本句中使用hard修饰动词trying，副词hardly，意为几乎不，与句意不相符，故将hardly改为hard。
３．考查固定搭配。Make up one’s mind to do sth ,意为下定决心做某事，为固定搭配。故将minds改为mind。
４．考查定冠词。序数词first前面要加定冠词the,形成for the first time ,第一次。故在first前面加the。
５．考查固定搭配。Agree to do sth,意为同意做某事，为固定搭配。故将visiting改为visit。
６．考查时态。句意：当他们来到这里，我会带他们参观我的大学和城市。可知这件事并不是发生在过去，而是将会发生，故将came改为come。
７．考查代词。句意：我已经决定给他们买一些漂亮的礼物了。Me 不符合句意，故将me改为them。
８．考查名词。句意：这对他们来说是一个很大的惊喜。惊喜，应该用名词surprise,故将surprising改为surprise。
９．考查副词性短语a lot 。a lot of表示许多，等于many、lots of,常用于名词前面， a lot是一个很灵活的副词性短语，此句中a lot做副词，是done的补语。故将a lot of改为a lot 。
１０．考查不定代词。句意：是时间我做一些事情表达我对他们的感激之情了。本句是一个陈述句，应该用something。Anything用在疑问句和否定句中。故将anything改为something。
第二节 书面表达(满分25分)
52. 据报道，7岁的美国女孩Amy Bruce 得知自己身患肺癌（lung cancer）后处于极度的痛苦之中。美国抗癌协会（ACS）决定，每当Amy收到一封慰问信，就给她增加3美分的治疗款。

Dear Amy

【答案】Dear Amy,
I am a student from Xinhua Middle School. I am very sorry to have heard of your present situation that you are so bitter after having a lung cancer.
At present, ACS decides that it will give you three cents when you receive a letter. That will offer you so much courage. I hope you will make efforts to overcome all kinds of difficulty, no matter how hard it is. You are sure to make it.
I will try my best to ask all my friends, schoolmates and relatives to write letters to you, which may help you. It will give more courage to live on.
May you recover soon.
Yours,
Li Hua
【解析】试题分析：考查应用文中的书信的写作。要求用英文给Amy写一封慰问信。要点都已经给出，信件要点包括：自我介绍，得知的情况，表示鼓励，打算为她做什么，祝她早日康复，审题时注意时态的选择，描述要尽量选择简洁的语言，运用合适的语法规则和词汇把各要点都准确表述出。难点在于选择词汇和句型，可以灵活运用高级词汇和固定短语准确表述。还要用适当的连接词被句子连接起来，这样文章显得更连贯。
【亮点说明】
本文是一篇书信，格式正确，要点全面包括，没有有遗漏和省略。同时谋篇布局合理，运用合适的连接词连接全文，同时选择高级的词汇和语法项目让文章更有文采。象范文的I hope you will make efforts to overcome all kinds of difficulty, no matter how hard it is.使用了no matter how引导的让步状语从句，还有I will try my best to ask all my friends, schoolmates and relatives to write letters to you, which may help you.用了非限制性定语从句。另外，make it（成功做成某事）的运用更是锦上添花。
