My father lives with a twenty-pound cat named Tofu. He calls me his favorite daughter. I am the only child.My father's apartment is quite different from any other people's living space. Except for my room, there is no furniture. He doesn't like sofas or any comfortable chairs, so he has only a drawing table, a desk and a bed. For three years he has resisted buying a stereo because he thinks it's ugly and will mess up his studio.From my father's studio window, you can see a large part of San Francisco. Í like to watch the colors change in the bay when the sun is setting. All the walls are white, and framed posters of my father's last three books hang side by side. He spends a lot of time lying on the studio floor. That's how he thinks, he says. Then he does yoga. He has a big kitchen, and on top of the refrigeration is an old clock he winds every week for good luck. The last time the clock stopped, my father's car was pulled away by the police and some other unfortunate things happened, so he has become very superstitious(迷信). When he goes out of town, he hires someone to feed Tofu and wind the clock so it won't stop.The one thing he has plenty of is house rules. You have to take off your shoes when you came in. He won't allow anyone who wears a baseball cap into his house. He says only baseball players should wear baseball caps and only the catchers should wear them backward. Every time I go to stay at his house, he makes up a new rule. "House rule number 579, no television programs with laugh tracks!" he will say. Well then, he can never remember the numbers, so they change constantly.The rule that he always enforces is the one that requires me to write a two-page-long essay anytime I want something. He didn't speak English until he was sixteen, and he had a hard time learning to write it, so he wants me to become a good writer at an early age. The ritual started when I asked him if I could have my ear pierced when I was nine. He said it was barbaric and told me I couldn't do it until I was thirty-five. But I kept asking him, and he finally said that if I wrote an essay and I could persuade him in writing why I wanted holes in my ears, maybe he would say okay. I wrote my first essay for my father, and after one month of writing and rewriting, he backed down and gave me his permission.24. Which statement is an example of a house rule?A. Wearing shoes in the house is not acceptable.B. Lying on the studio floor can improve the way of thinking.C. No baseball players should wear caps backward.D. Keeping Tofu fed and the clock wound is important.25. Which of the following means the closest to the underlined word "pierced" in paragraph 5?A. A sudden scream pierced the silence.B. The darkness was pierced by the light from the sun.C. Boil the corn until it can easily be pierced with a fork.D. The crazy man threatened to pierce the defense of the police.26. Based on the passage, we can learn that _______.A. The stopped clock brought about many misfortunes to my father.B. writing a two-page-long essay is well-meant for the authorC. there are in all 579 house rules and the number is growingD. my father doesn't want an ugly stereo in his house.27. What is the best title of the passage?A. The Tension between My Father and Me                 B. A Father's Unusual HabitsC. A Caring Father                                     D.A Challenging Teenager CIn an interview in 1958, Ernest Hemingway made an admission that has inspired novelists ever since: The final words of A Farewell to Arms, his wartime classic, were rewritten “39 times before I was satisfied.”Those endings have never been published together in their entirety, according to his longtime publisher, Scribner.A new edition of A Farewell to Arms, will be released soon, including all the different endings, with early drafts of other passages in the book. The new edition concludes that the 39 endings that Hemingway referred to are really more like 47. They have been kept in the Ernest Hemingway Collection at the John F. Kennedy Presidential Library and Museum in Boston since 1979. The endings are named and gathered in an appendix in the new edition, a 330­-page book whose cover uses the novel's original artwork.For readers of Hemingway the endings are a fascinating look into how the novel could have ended with different endings. And since most modern authors produce their work on computers, the new edition also serves as an artifact, with handwritten notes and long passages crossed out, giving readers a sense of an author's process.Hemingway also left behind a list of titles, like “World Enough and Time”, “Of Wounds and Other Causes”, “The Enchantment”, and etc., which are reprinted in the new edition. Patrick Hemingway, Ernest Hemingway's only surviving son, said that when Scribner suggested the raw material be published, he agreed. “They do give insight into how Hemingway was thinking, but no matter how much you analyze a classic bit of writing, you can never really figure out what makes talent work.” said Patrick Hemingway, who is 84.Susan Moldow, the publisher of Scribner, says that Hemingway is an all-­ time strong seller. After reading the various endings, Ms. Moldow added she didn't question the author's decision. “The ending has stood the test of time”, She said, “I think we have to be glad that he chose the ending in line with his Style.”28. What can we know about A Farewell to Arms?A. It is a novel written during the times of wars.B. Scribner has never published Hemingway's works.C. Hemingway tried to write a satisfying ending for it.D. Other writers rewrite their works mostly because of its success.29. What CAN’T be found in the new edition according to the passage?A. 47 endings of the book.        B. Handwritten notes by Hemingway.C. Different unused names of the book.      D. A picture of an artifact made by Hemingway.30. What can we know from Patrick Hemingway's words?A. Publishing the new edition is thought to be a good idea.B. It is difficult to find a writer as talented as Ernest Hemingway.C. Readers never really understand Ernest Hemingway's works.D. The drafts of the novels are valued more than the novels.31. What does Susan Moldow think of the final ending of the book?A. Ironic.       B. Classic.      C. Average.      D. Interesting. DAn American company has built a new drone (无人机）that could improve the speed of deliveries. Different from other unmanned aircraft, it is made almost completely out of cardboard and has no motor. It can be packed with materials and sealed up with tape.Because the drones do not have a motor, they are designed to be dropped from airplanes. Hundreds of drones could be sent out at once. Then they could be automatically guided to where they are supposed to go. The company says these drones could then complete deliveries to different places over an area covering hundreds of kilometers. The drones look bigger than the paper airplanes we used to make as kids, but this light flyer is not a toy. It is aerodynamically（空气动力学地）designed and equipped with a small computer, a battery and sensors to guide it to the ground.The drones are being developed by Otherlab---a technology research company in San Francisco, California. Now, it can carry materials weighing up to one kilogram, but future models are expected to carry larger loads. The Otherlab development team has called the invention the "IKEA of drones”. Packaged similarly to products from the famous Swedish furniture maker, it borrows IKEA' s concept. The drone arrives as flat pieces of pre-cut cardboard that can be quickly and easily put together.The technology that guides the drone can make it land within 10 meters of its target, according to Otherlab. Unlike other drones, even a crash landing is acceptable. The company says the drones can also be reused. Once the drone completes its delivery, it can be thrown away and the cardboard material will break down within a few months.The company has received money from the US Department of Defense to carry out research on the drones. The money came from the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency. The agency is attempting to find the best delivery vehicles that can disappear after their missions are completed. The US military(军队）has a need for delivery drones. But it wants to simplify and lower the cost of using them. Otherlab's Sky Machines are an attempt to fill that need.Military drones can also be stolen and studied by others if found after use. Before they can truly disappear, the electronic materials inside must also somehow disappear. Researchers are still working on ways to get the technology itself to self-destruct.32.What does Paragraph 2 mainly talk about?A. How the new drone can get to the ground    B. What the new drone is equipped with.C. Why the new drone is invented.D. Why the new drone is designed like paper airplanes.33.Why is the invention called the "IKEA of drones"?A Because it's a similar product made by IKEA.    B. Because it uses the idea from IKEA.C. Because it's built at a low cost like furniture of IKEA.  D. Because it's made up of pre-cut cardboard.34. Which of the following statements is the advantage of the new drone?A. It can land near its target.     B. It has a light motor inside.C.A crash landing is not acceptable.    D. Its load weighs far more than one kilo.35.What can be inferred from the last two paragraphs about Otherlab's Sky Machines?A. They have been built by the US military.B. Research is being carried out on their improvement.C. They are now often stolen and studied by others after deliveries.D. The electronic materials inside can already destroy themselves after use.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。How to Survive Exam StressExam time is one of the most stressful in school, whether it is high school, college or graduate school. Even the best students feel the pressure. The first sign of a problem while preparing for an exam is worry. ___36___ If we can get rid of worries, or at least control them, then we're in a much better position to do well on our tests. Take the following steps to survive exam stress and increase your overall performance as a result.
    ___37___What causes you anxiety when you are studying? Too much noise? Then move to a quieter place. Delayed work? Catch up with your studies a couple nights before. That way you can save the final night before the exam to review and get a good night of sleep.The second way to deal with worry is to displace thoughts. Suppose you wake up at three in the morning and you're worried about an exam. What do you do? ___38___ Doing something productive might allow you to sleep better when you finally do go back to bed. Another way to displace negative thoughts is to do something physically active. Work out. Take a quick walk or a nice run. ___39___For example, I might worry about the exam having surprise questions that I'm not prepared to answer. But I can shove those thoughts aside by reminding myself that I've taken many exams and I've handled surprise questions before.
    The third option is to treat the symptoms. Keep things in perspective. Think of one final exam that causes you the most anxiety. Now think of the worst thing that could happen. If you've prepared, then likely the worst grade you could get is a C. And, if you've been applying what we've been talking about, then you'll likely to do no worse than a B. ____40____A. Another idea is to think positive thoughts
B. Worry robs us of energy, focus and motivation.
C. How about getting up and studying for an hour?.
D. How bad is that really?
E. The first is to delete the causes
F. What we should do is to think positively and get rid of it.
G. So just face the result bravely and make an effort to improve your grade. 第三部分 语言运用（共两节，满分 30 分） 第一节 （共 15 小题；每小题 1 分，满分 15 分） 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的 A、B、C、D 四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。"I'm going to tell you a story."

We could not find any vehicle to drop us there. At long last, we managed to find a taxi which took us to the outskirt of the city. Another evidence of bad luck was that Harry had left his cell phone at home.After we got out of the taxi, some of the locals told us the way to the cave. The cave looked very attractive yet still mysterious: The cave was so dark, and the tiny sounds made by the insects and animals could be heard properly, pulling us into the cave with some unknown supernatural power. As we were moving forward, we made marks on the rocks along our path to remind us of the exit of the cave. And we always kept our mobiles in switch on mode to contact each other in case we got separated and even worse, lost in the cave.When we reached in the deep of the cave, we lost our way and gradually the fog spread everywhere and we were not able to see each other properly. All of us got very scared of what was happening around us.Suddenly, we noticed that Harry was not with us and then we unclearly heard a shout from the depth of the cave and we thought it was Harry, so we started searching for him. But our torches were left no use in such think fog.注意：1，续写词数应为150左右；2，请按如下格式在相应位置作答。Para1: So we felt our way towards the direction of the shout. ____________________________________________ __________________________________________________________________________________________Para2: After we reunited with Harry, we tried to find the way out. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
