1. —Are you sure you’re ready for the best?
—________ . I’m well prepared for it.
A. Not really B. I’m afraid not C. No problem D. Hard to say
【答案】C
【解析】
【详解】考查情景交际。句意：——你确定你准备好了吗？——没问题。我已经做好了充分的准备。A. Not really不见得；B. I’m afraid not我恐怕没有；C. No problem没问题；D. Hard to say难说。根据后文“I’m well prepared for it.”可知，表示没问题，已经做好了准备。故选C。
2. Busy as the man is, he ________ every weekend to staying with his wife and children.
A. picks B. spends C. devotes D. takes
【答案】C
【解析】
【详解】考查动词词义辨析。句意：尽管这个男人很忙，但他每个周末都和妻子孩子呆在一起。A. picks捡起；B. spends花费；C. devotes致力于；D. takes带走。根据后文“every weekend to staying with his wife and children”可知为短语devote to doing sth.，表示“致力于”。故选C。
3. In my hometown, there is always a harvest supper for the farmers after all the wheat ________.
A. was cut B. will be cut
C. will have been cut D. has been cut
【答案】D
【解析】
【详解】考查时态语态。句意：在我的家乡，所有的小麦被收割完后，总是会有农民的丰收晚餐（农民总会举办一场丰收宴来庆祝）。结合语意可知，cut这一动作已经完成，对现在有影响，空处应用现在完成时，cut与主语wheat之间是被动关系，应用现在完成时的被动语态，主语wheat是不可数名词，谓语动词应用第三人称单数形式has been cut。故选D项。
4. Listening to music at home is one thing, going to hear it ________ live is quite another.
A. perform B. performing
C. to perform D. being performed
【答案】D
【解析】
【详解】考查非谓语动词。句意：在家里面听音乐是一回事，去到现场听又是另一回事。分析4个选项知道，答案所使用的是同一个动词，不同的是时态、语态或者是非谓语形式。A是动词原形，B是非谓语现在分词形式，C是非谓语的不定式，D是非谓语的现在分词被动形式。分析句子结构以及用法，不难知道音乐是被演奏的，所以需要被动，故选D。
【点睛】解答此题，既需要正确区分非谓语和谓语的用法，又要对语态中的被动和主动有所了解，另外也要对hear 这个感官动词的用法有了解。其中的非谓语和谓语可以根据句子成分划分得出，而语态关键看主语是人还是物。当物作主语时需要用被动。
5. He is confident, ________, in my opinion, is most important in modern society.
A. who B. which C. that D. what
【答案】B
【解析】
【详解】考查非限定性定语从句。句意：他很自信，在我看来，这是在社会上最重要的。此处为非限定性定语从句，关系词指代前面的内容，在从句中作主语，用关系代词which引导非限制性定语从句，故选B项。
6. I don’t think what he said is ________ to the topic we are discussing. He has missed the point.
A. faithful B. parallel C. relevant D. similar

【详解】考查形容词词义辨析。句意：我认为他所说的和我们今天讨论的话题无关。他没有抓住要点。A. faithful忠实的，忠诚的；B. parallel与……平行；C. relevant和……相关；D. similar和……相似。根据He has missed the point.可知，两者无关，故选C项。

11. _____________in the poorest area of Glasgow, he had a long, hard road to becoming a football star.
A. Being raised B. Raising
C. Raised D. To raise
【答案】C
【解析】
【详解】考查非谓语动词。句意：他在格拉斯哥最穷的地方长大，要想成为足球明星还有很长的路要走。根据句意可知raise这个动词的逻辑主语是he，他在这个地方长大，两者之间是主谓关系，故选C项。
【点睛】本题在考查非谓语动词，题目难度中等，从选项看，不定式：表示目的和将来；动词的ing：表示主动和进行；过去分词：表示被动和完成。从句子结构判断，两个句子是否共用一个主语，主语与第一个动词之间是主谓关系还是动宾关系，再者还要注意判断时间关系，从而得出答案来。
12. —Remember the first time we met?

【点睛】本题关键词是不可避免（unavoidable）。本题需要通过分析句子成分，判断前后的意思是相反的。介词的短语的考查，四个选项意思都是相差很大的，该题需要能够正确理解句子隐含意思。平时要注重识记介词短语，另外这些介词短语表达可以运用在写作中。

Christopher Thomas, 27, was a writer by night and a teacher by day when he noticed he was always tired and was losing weight fast. Diagnosed with diabetes (糖尿病), Thomas would need to inject himself with insulin (胰岛素)three times a day for the rest of his life or risk nerve damage, blindness and even death. And if that weren’t bad enough, he had no health insurance.
After a month of feeling upset, Thomas decided he’d better find a way to fight back. He left Canton, Michigan for New York, got a job waiting tables, nicknamed himself the Diabetic Rockstar, and created diabeticrockstar.com, a free online community for diabetics and their loved ones—a place where over 1,100 people share personal stories, information, and resources.
Jason Swencki’s son, Kody, was diagnosed with diabetes at six. Father and son visit the online children’s forums together most evenings. “Kody gets so excited, writing to kids from all over,” says Swencki, one of the site’s volunteers. “They know what he’s going through, so he doesn’t feel alone.”
Kody is anything but alone: Diabetes is now the seventh leading cause of death in the United States, with 24 million diagnosed cases. And more people are being diagnosed at younger ages.
These days, Thomas’s main focus is his charity, Fight It, which provides medicines and supplies to people—225 to date—who can’t afford a diabetic’s huge expenses. Fight-it. Org has raised about $23,000 in products and in cash. In May, Thomas will hold the first annual Diabetic Rockstar Festival in the Caribbean.
Even with a staff of 22 volunteers, Thomas often devotes up to 50 hours a week to his cause, while still doing his full-time job waiting tables. “Of the diabetes charities out there, most are putting money into finding a cure,” says Bentley Gubar, one of Rockstar’s original members. “But Christopher is the only person I know saying people need help now.”
41. From the passage, what do we know about Christopher Thomas?
A. He needs to go to the doctor every day.
B. He has a positive attitude to his disease.
C. He studies the leading cause of diabetes.
D. He encourages diabetics by writing articles.
42. Diabeitcrockstar. com was created for ________.
A. volunteers to find jobs
B. diabetics to communicate
C. children to amuse themselves
D. Rock stars to share resources
43. According to the passage, Kody________.
A. feels lonely because of his illness
B. helps create the online kids’ forums
C. writes children’s stories online
D. benefits from Diabeitcrockstar. com
44. What can we learn about Fight It?
A. It owns a well-known medical website.
B. It offers less expensive medicine to diabetics.
C. It helps the diabetics in financial difficulties.
D. It organizes parties for volunteers once a year.
45. The last paragraph suggests that Thomas ________.
A. helps diabetics in his own way
B. employs 22 people for his website

Tens of thousands of ancient pictures carved into the rocks at one of France’s most important tourist sites are being gradually destroyed. Scientists and researchers fear that the 36,000 drawings on rocks in Mont Bego in the French Alps are being damaged so rapidly that they will not survive for future generations.
The mountain believed to have once been a site for prayer is scattered with 4000-year-old drawings cut into bare rock. But as the popularity of the site increases, the pictures are being ruined by thoughtless graffiti.
Jean Clottes is the chairman of the International Committee on Rock Art. He says “People think that because the pictures have been there so long they will always continue to be there. But if the damage continues at this rate there will be nothing left in 50 years.”
He describes seeing tourists stamping on the drawings, wearing away the rock and clearness of the artwork as they do so. Some visitors he says even cut off parts to take home as souvenirs. Other researchers describe how people arrive carrying long sticks with sharp ends to scratch their own drawings, or even their names in the rocks.
But experts are divided over the best way to preserve the drawings. Henry de Lumley, director of the Museum of Natural History in Paris, believes that the only way to save the site is to turn the whole mountain into a “no-go” area, preventing the public from going there except on guided tours.
Clottes disagrees. “The measure suggested by Henry de Lumley is the most severe, and while it is the most effective, it is also certain to bring about protests from people who live there” he said. “The site was classified as a historic monument years ago by the Ministry of Culture and we must do as much as possible to save what is there.”
Annie Echassoux who also worked on researching the site is alarmed that as the mountain becomes easier to reach — tourists can now avoid the three-and-a-half-hour walk by hiring vehicles — the damage will increase rapidly. She thinks that the only solution is to rope off the area and provide guides. “You can’t say the plan can’t go ahead because there is no money ” she said. “That is not good enough. Money must be provided because the Ministry of Culture has classified this area as a historic site. If we don’t take steps, we will be responsible for losing the drawings for the next generation.”
46. Jean Clottes says that people who visit the mountain________.
A. do not believe the drawings are old. B. believe they are allowed to paint there
C. assume the drawings will not disappear D. think the drawings should be left alone
47. According to Jean Clottes some of the visitors to the area have________.
A. taken bits of the rock home B. helped to clean the drawings
C. been unable to take photographs D. misunderstood what the pictures mean
48. Henry de Lumley is eager to________.
A. protect public rights B. ban traffic in the area
C. set up research projects D. keep out individual visitors
49. Which word best describes Annie Echassoux’s attitude towards saving the historic site?
A. Worried. B. Supportive. C. Disappointed. D. Hesitant.
50. This passage has been written about Mont Bego to ________.
A. advertise the closing of the site B. encourage scientists to visit the site
C. describe fears for the future of the site D. warn visitors about the dangers of the site
【答案】46. C 47. A 48. D 49. B 50. C

But if the damage continues at this rate there will be nothing left in 50 years.”(他说：“人们认为，因为这些照片已经在那里太久了，所以它们将永远在那里。但如果破坏继续以这种速度进行，50年后将什么都不剩。”)”可知，Jean Clottes说，参观这座山的人认为图画不会消失。故选C。
【47题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段“Some visitors he says even cut off parts to take home as souvenirs.(他说，一些游客甚至把岩石的一部分切下来作为纪念品带回家)”可知，据Jean Clottes说一些到该地区的游客把岩石碎片带回家。故选A。
【48题详解】
细节理解题。根据第五段“Henry de Lumley, director of the Museum of Natural History in Paris, believes that the only way to save the site is to turn the whole mountain into a “no-go” area, preventing the public from going there except on guided tours.(巴黎自然历史博物馆馆长Henry de Lumley认为，拯救这一遗址的唯一方法是将整座山变成一个“禁区”，禁止公众前往，除非有导游陪同)”可知，Henry de Lumley希望禁止个人访客进入。故选D。
【49题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“Money must be provided because the Ministry of Culture has classified this area as a historic site. If we don’t take steps, we will be responsible for losing the drawings for the next generation.(必须提供资金，因为文化部已将该地区列为历史遗迹。如果我们不采取措施，我们将为下一代失去图纸负责)”可推知，Annie Echassoux对拯救历史遗迹的态度是支持。故选B。

Trust as explained in Wikepedia (维基百科) is the feeling of being sure someone or something can be relied upon. Trust is a big topic in many people’s lives. It produces an emotional feeling that is tied to the core of a person’s very existence.
Why do we want to break anyone’s trust? Why does this happen over and over again? It may arise from pride, control, dislikes, a difference of opinion and misunderstandings. Perhaps when you are living your life without self-worth and self-love then you are living your life in a continual state of negative thoughts and feelings. What you feel inside is evident by what you do and what you say. When you shift your energy within yourself and find your place of love and worth then your view of this world will change for the better. This energy shift towards the positive will shift everything that you think, say and do. Being kind to yourself projects outward to the world by being kind and good to others. This projection is the outcome of this positive energy shift. Our true self is one of love and feeling worthy of all of the goodness and happiness.
We have a tendency to look outside of ourselves for content when this feeling of content can be found within ourselves. The answers to our questions about life and love are within us. Sometimes we need to give ourselves a break and to be most loving, most kind and most patient with us. Care for and love yourself to find the joy within. The love and peace of this world is in each and every one of us.
Meditation (沉思) can bridge that trust that we can have in ourselves. Then we can have more trust in the world and in others. When everything around us is breaking up meditation can help to keep us centered so we can find that deep connection of love and worthiness. That is your true self wanting to shine through. We can’t control anything else but we can control what we do.
When you choose to help yourself then you choose to trust yourself. Trust can lead us to a life of peace and love and fulfillment. The world has its own programs. Trust in love and peace and live your life like you mean it!
51 The first paragraph serves as a(n) ________.
A. background B. comparison C. explanation D. comment
52. If you want to have a positive life attitude, you should ________.
A. save your inside energy to create positive things
B. find a place where you’ll be respected
C. make sure what you truly want to do and say
D. try to show your true self naturally and continuously
53. When you fail or feel disappointed you should ________.
A. stop and adjust yourself
B. continue to work even harder
C. reduce the degree of your feeling of content
D. try to fully recognize your own fault
54. Based on this text meditation might make us ________.
A. modest when we achieve something

C. live a meaningful and unchangeable life
D. control ourselves successfully as well as the outside world

While I tried hard to fight against my terrible cancer, my husband passed away due to a heart attack. I was so sad. My mother came to stay with me. I wondered what I'd do with my 86-year-old mother.
A week after she arrived, I asked, “Mom, why don't you crochet (用钩针编织) anymore?" She said she didn't know what she could make. I advised, "How about flowers? We can share them with others." Mom nodded. While she worked, I offered assistance. Before long, Mom crocheted many flowers and we sent them to friends and cancer patients. In the next few weeks, several thank-you notes arrived in our maillbox.
Later, Mom wanted to crochet the butterfly. She created one and sent it to my friend Yvonne. She loved it and attached it to her hairclip. One day, she called, "Some volunteers were sent to Haiti to help with the disaster there. Could you send me another butterfly? I wanted some volunteers to bring the butterfly to a girl in Haiti to offer her warmth and hope." Then we sent another one to Yvonne and she again attached it to a hairclip. The hairclip was later brought to a girl in Haiti. The girl, called Mary, had felt sad and hopeless after suffering from the disaster. But when she received and wore the butterfly hairclip, her face brightened. And her bright eyes showed more hope for the future.
I was excited to know that Mom's creativity was encouraging people like this girl. But some people who didn't know us well thought it was a waste of time crocheting these things. Surely, I couldn't see eye to eye with these people on my mom's efforts of crocheting. Her project was meaningful. It made my mother have a purpose in life. And helping her carry out her project, I felt I led a richer and more hopeful life myself.

________________
【答案】56. Her husband passed away due to a heart attack.

【点睛】解答此题，既需要正确区分非谓语和谓语的用法，又要对语态中的被动和主动有所了解，另外也要对hear 这个感官动词的用法有了解。其中的非谓语和谓语可以根据句子成分划分得出，而语态关键看主语是人还是物。当物作主语时需要用被动。
5. He is confident, ________, in my opinion, is most important in modern society.
A. who B. which C. that D. what
【答案】B
【解析】
【详解】考查非限定性定语从句。句意：他很自信，在我看来，这是在社会上最重要的。此处为非限定性定语从句，关系词指代前面的内容，在从句中作主语，用关系代词which引导非限制性定语从句，故选B项。

C. Raised D. To raise

【点睛】本题在考查非谓语动词，题目难度中等，从选项看，不定式：表示目的和将来；动词的ing：表示主动和进行；过去分词：表示被动和完成。从句子结构判断，两个句子是否共用一个主语，主语与第一个动词之间是主谓关系还是动宾关系，再者还要注意判断时间关系，从而得出答案来。

【点睛】本题关键词是不可避免（unavoidable）。本题需要通过分析句子成分，判断前后的意思是相反的。介词的短语的考查，四个选项意思都是相差很大的，该题需要能够正确理解句子隐含意思。平时要注重识记介词短语，另外这些介词短语表达可以运用在写作中。

Christopher Thomas, 27, was a writer by night and a teacher by day when he noticed he was always tired and was losing weight fast. Diagnosed with diabetes (糖尿病), Thomas would need to inject himself with insulin (胰岛素)three times a day for the rest of his life or risk nerve damage, blindness and even death. And if that weren’t bad enough, he had no health insurance.
After a month of feeling upset, Thomas decided he’d better find a way to fight back. He left Canton, Michigan for New York, got a job waiting tables, nicknamed himself the Diabetic Rockstar, and created diabeticrockstar.com, a free online community for diabetics and their loved ones—a place where over 1,100 people share personal stories, information, and resources.
Jason Swencki’s son, Kody, was diagnosed with diabetes at six. Father and son visit the online children’s forums together most evenings. “Kody gets so excited, writing to kids from all over,” says Swencki, one of the site’s volunteers. “They know what he’s going through, so he doesn’t feel alone.”
Kody is anything but alone: Diabetes is now the seventh leading cause of death in the United States, with 24 million diagnosed cases. And more people are being diagnosed at younger ages.
These days, Thomas’s main focus is his charity, Fight It, which provides medicines and supplies to people—225 to date—who can’t afford a diabetic’s huge expenses. Fight-it. Org has raised about $23,000 in products and in cash. In May, Thomas will hold the first annual Diabetic Rockstar Festival in the Caribbean.
Even with a staff of 22 volunteers, Thomas often devotes up to 50 hours a week to his cause, while still doing his full-time job waiting tables. “Of the diabetes charities out there, most are putting money into finding a cure,” says Bentley Gubar, one of Rockstar’s original members. “But Christopher is the only person I know saying people need help now.”

Tens of thousands of ancient pictures carved into the rocks at one of France’s most important tourist sites are being gradually destroyed. Scientists and researchers fear that the 36,000 drawings on rocks in Mont Bego in the French Alps are being damaged so rapidly that they will not survive for future generations.
The mountain believed to have once been a site for prayer is scattered with 4000-year-old drawings cut into bare rock. But as the popularity of the site increases, the pictures are being ruined by thoughtless graffiti.
Jean Clottes is the chairman of the International Committee on Rock Art. He says “People think that because the pictures have been there so long they will always continue to be there. But if the damage continues at this rate there will be nothing left in 50 years.”
He describes seeing tourists stamping on the drawings, wearing away the rock and clearness of the artwork as they do so. Some visitors he says even cut off parts to take home as souvenirs. Other researchers describe how people arrive carrying long sticks with sharp ends to scratch their own drawings, or even their names in the rocks.
But experts are divided over the best way to preserve the drawings. Henry de Lumley, director of the Museum of Natural History in Paris, believes that the only way to save the site is to turn the whole mountain into a “no-go” area, preventing the public from going there except on guided tours.
Clottes disagrees. “The measure suggested by Henry de Lumley is the most severe, and while it is the most effective, it is also certain to bring about protests from people who live there” he said. “The site was classified as a historic monument years ago by the Ministry of Culture and we must do as much as possible to save what is there.”
Annie Echassoux who also worked on researching the site is alarmed that as the mountain becomes easier to reach — tourists can now avoid the three-and-a-half-hour walk by hiring vehicles — the damage will increase rapidly. She thinks that the only solution is to rope off the area and provide guides. “You can’t say the plan can’t go ahead because there is no money ” she said. “That is not good enough. Money must be provided because the Ministry of Culture has classified this area as a historic site. If we don’t take steps, we will be responsible for losing the drawings for the next generation.”
46. Jean Clottes says that people who visit the mountain________.
A. do not believe the drawings are old. B. believe they are allowed to paint there
C. assume the drawings will not disappear D. think the drawings should be left alone
47. According to Jean Clottes some of the visitors to the area have________.
A. taken bits of the rock home B. helped to clean the drawings
C. been unable to take photographs D. misunderstood what the pictures mean
48. Henry de Lumley is eager to________.
A. protect public rights B. ban traffic in the area
C. set up research projects D. keep out individual visitors
49. Which word best describes Annie Echassoux’s attitude towards saving the historic site?
A. Worried. B. Supportive. C. Disappointed. D. Hesitant.
50. This passage has been written about Mont Bego to ________.
A. advertise the closing of the site B. encourage scientists to visit the site
C. describe fears for the future of the site D. warn visitors about the dangers of the site
【答案】46. C 47. A 48. D 49. B 50. C

But if the damage continues at this rate there will be nothing left in 50 years.”(他说：“人们认为，因为这些照片已经在那里太久了，所以它们将永远在那里。但如果破坏继续以这种速度进行，50年后将什么都不剩。”)”可知，Jean Clottes说，参观这座山的人认为图画不会消失。故选C。
【47题详解】

Trust as explained in Wikepedia (维基百科) is the feeling of being sure someone or something can be relied upon. Trust is a big topic in many people’s lives. It produces an emotional feeling that is tied to the core of a person’s very existence.
Why do we want to break anyone’s trust? Why does this happen over and over again? It may arise from pride, control, dislikes, a difference of opinion and misunderstandings. Perhaps when you are living your life without self-worth and self-love then you are living your life in a continual state of negative thoughts and feelings. What you feel inside is evident by what you do and what you say. When you shift your energy within yourself and find your place of love and worth then your view of this world will change for the better. This energy shift towards the positive will shift everything that you think, say and do. Being kind to yourself projects outward to the world by being kind and good to others. This projection is the outcome of this positive energy shift. Our true self is one of love and feeling worthy of all of the goodness and happiness.
We have a tendency to look outside of ourselves for content when this feeling of content can be found within ourselves. The answers to our questions about life and love are within us. Sometimes we need to give ourselves a break and to be most loving, most kind and most patient with us. Care for and love yourself to find the joy within. The love and peace of this world is in each and every one of us.
Meditation (沉思) can bridge that trust that we can have in ourselves. Then we can have more trust in the world and in others. When everything around us is breaking up meditation can help to keep us centered so we can find that deep connection of love and worthiness. That is your true self wanting to shine through. We can’t control anything else but we can control what we do.
When you choose to help yourself then you choose to trust yourself. Trust can lead us to a life of peace and love and fulfillment. The world has its own programs. Trust in love and peace and live your life like you mean it!

While I tried hard to fight against my terrible cancer, my husband passed away due to a heart attack. I was so sad. My mother came to stay with me. I wondered what I'd do with my 86-year-old mother.
A week after she arrived, I asked, “Mom, why don't you crochet (用钩针编织) anymore?" She said she didn't know what she could make. I advised, "How about flowers? We can share them with others." Mom nodded. While she worked, I offered assistance. Before long, Mom crocheted many flowers and we sent them to friends and cancer patients. In the next few weeks, several thank-you notes arrived in our maillbox.
Later, Mom wanted to crochet the butterfly. She created one and sent it to my friend Yvonne. She loved it and attached it to her hairclip. One day, she called, "Some volunteers were sent to Haiti to help with the disaster there. Could you send me another butterfly? I wanted some volunteers to bring the butterfly to a girl in Haiti to offer her warmth and hope." Then we sent another one to Yvonne and she again attached it to a hairclip. The hairclip was later brought to a girl in Haiti. The girl, called Mary, had felt sad and hopeless after suffering from the disaster. But when she received and wore the butterfly hairclip, her face brightened. And her bright eyes showed more hope for the future.
I was excited to know that Mom's creativity was encouraging people like this girl. But some people who didn't know us well thought it was a waste of time crocheting these things. Surely, I couldn't see eye to eye with these people on my mom's efforts of crocheting. Her project was meaningful. It made my mother have a purpose in life. And helping her carry out her project, I felt I led a richer and more hopeful life myself.

In the next few weeks, several thank-you notes arrived in our maillbox.(妈妈编织了许多花，我们把它们送给了朋友和癌症患者。在接下来的几周里，我们的邮箱里收到了几封感谢信)”可知，作者和妈妈收到一些感谢信是因为他们送花给朋友和癌症患者。故答案是Because they sent crocheted flowers to friends and cancer patients.
