A

Dear Alcohol,

    You've been around forever. I can remember all the pain you've caused for me.

    Do you remember the night you almost took my father's life? I do. He loves you. Sometimes I think he loves you more than he loves me. He's addicted to you, to the way you promise to rid him of his problems only to cause more of them. You just sat back and laughed as his car went spinning through the street, crashing into two other cars. He wasn't the only one hurt by you that night.

    Do you remember the night of my first high school party? You were there. My friends were intrigued by you. They treated you as if they were never going to see you again, drinking all of you that they could. I spent two hours that night helping my friends who had fallen completely. "I'm so embarrassed," they said as I held their hair back so that they could vomit(呕吐). "I'm sorry," they said when I called taxies for them, walking them out and paying the driver in advance. "This won't happen again," they said as they were sent to the hospital to have their stomachs pumped. Two 15-year-old girls slept in hospital beds that night thanks to you.

    Do you remember the night when you took advantage of my 17-year-old neighbor who had to drive to pick up his sister from her dance lessons? Do you know how we all felt when he hit another car and killed the two people in the other car? He died the next morning too. His sister walked home from her dance lesson, and passed police cars and a crowd of people gathering on the sidewalk just two blocks away from the dance studio. She didn't realize her brother was in the midst of it all. She never saw him again. And it's all your fault.

    I wish you'd walk out of my life forever. I don't want anything to do with you. Look at all the pain you've caused. Sure, you've made people happy too from time to time. But the damage you've caused in the lives of millions is inexcusable. Stop luring(引诱) in the people I love. Stop hurting me, please.

Sincerely,Anonymous

    The idea that you can use humor, laughter, and play to make you healthier probably seems too simple to be true. However, it is really true and simple. The sense of humor, laughter and play plays an important part in keeping you healthy.

    Treat the blues with a sense of humor, which is closely tied to laughter. Laughter is infectious. Have you ever heard a big laugh of a young child and been able to keep yourself from smiling? When laughter is shared between people, it makes them closer to each other and increases their happiness. Smiling is the beginning of laughter and a smile is also just as infectious as laughter is. You can experience something by smiling at everyone around you, and you will feel happier just by sharing a smile, even with a stranger.

    Play is an important part of making sure that we stay healthy. We are often encouraged to make sure our children play, and are told of the benefits of being out playing. However, what we often forget is that it is just as important for old people to make play be part of their life as it's for children. Physical play is important for the old and it certainly helps prevent illness. While the studies are still in the early stages , the studies that have been done have shown that physical play certainly plays a part in preventing cognitive( 认知的) falling .

    Anyway, adding humor, laughter, and play to our life will influence us mentally, physically and socially and bring us many advantages. So we should make full use of humor, laughter and play to make our life more active, more interesting and happier.

24. What does the underlined word " infectious " in Paragraph 2 probably mean ?

A. Playing an important role.   B. Keeping people in high spirits.

C. Quickly influencing other people.  D. Preventing illness from spreading.

25. What can laughter increase according to the author?

A. Cognitive ability.   B. Good relationships.

C. A sense of humor.   D. Happiness and confidence.

26. What does the author think the old should do?

A. They should have a good rest.   B. They should play like children.

C. They should prevent cognitive falling.  D. They should take part in physical play.

27. Which of the following would be the best title for the text?

A. Humor, Laughter and Play for Health  B. Always Keep Our Body Healthy

C. Have an Active and Happy Life   D. Let Our Body and Mind Relax

C

    Most people agree that honesty is a good thing. But does Mother Nature agree? Animals can't talk, but can they lie in other ways? Can they lie with their bodies and behavior? Animal experts may not call it lying, but they do agree that many animals, from birds to chimpanzees, behave dishonestly to fool other animals. Why? Dishonesty often helps them survive.

    Many kinds of birds are very successful at fooling other animals. For example, a bird called the plover(啄木鸟)sometimes pretends to be hurt in order to protect its young. When a predator(猎食动物) gets close to its nest, the plover leads the predator away from the nest. How? It pretends to have abroken wing. The predator follows the "hurt" adult, leaving the baby birds safe in the nest.

    Another kind of bird, the scrub jay(丛林松鸦), buries its food so it always has something to eat. Scrub j ays are also thieves. They watch where others bury their food and steal it. But clever scrub jays seem to know when a thief is watching them. So they go back later, unbury the food, and bury it again somewhere else.

    Birds called cuckoos(布谷鸟) have found a way to have babies without doing much work. How? They don't make nests. Instead, they get into other birds' nests secretly. Then they lay their eggs and fly away. When the baby birds come out, their adoptive parents feed them.

    Chimpanzees, or chimps, can also be sneaky. After a fight, the losing chimp will give its hand to the other. When the winning chimp puts out its hand, too, the chimps are friendly again. But an anima l expert once saw a losing chimp take the winner's hand and start fighting again.

    Chimps are sneaky in other ways, too. When chimps find food that they love, such as bananas, it is natural for them to cry out. Then other chimps come running. But some clever chimps learn to cry very softly when they find food. That way, other chimps don't hear them, and they don't need to share their food.

    As children, many of us learn the saying "You can't fool Mother Nature." But maybe you can't trust her, either.

28. A plover protects its young from a predator by _______.

A. getting closer to its young   B. driving away the adult predator

C. leaving its young in another nest   D. pretending to be injured

29. By "Chimpanzees, or chimps, can also be sneaky", the author means _______.

A. chimps are ready to attack others   B. chimps are sometimes dishonest

C. chimps are jealous of the winners   D. chimps can be selfish too

30. Which of the following is true according to the passage?

A. Some chimps lower their cry to keep food away from others.

B. The losing chimp won the fight by taking the winner's hand.

C. Cuckoos fool their adoptive parents by making no nests. D. Some clever scrub jay s often steal their food back.

31. Which of the following might be the best title of the passage?

A. Do animals lie?   B. Does Mother Nature fool animals?

C. How do animals learn to lie?   D. How does honesty help animals survive?

D

　　Social networks are a big part of nearly every teenager’s life in this day and age. Many teens have QQ, WeChat, or Weibo but little do a lot of teens know that they can be held responsible for everything they post for the rest of their lives. Everything you post online is part of a digital footprint that can always be traced(追踪) back to you. That includes every post, even like, comment, favorite and forward that you have ever committed. All pictures you've posted or will post have been stored in a digital database, and it is the companies’ right to keep all of these document s that you believe to have been deleted or hidden.

　　With every post comes a consequence, whether it is good or bad, what you post could be seen by anyone. That is why you have to be very careful of what you decide to post or comment.

　　If you think you are safe from Servite finding out about one funny comment you made six months ago on a meaningless picture, you are probably wrong. Recently, a senior, Aaron, at Servite learned this lesson the hard way this year. He wrote a series of ugly comments towards Connelly girls on a web page, ignoring potential consequences.

　　This student, however, did have to face consequences from Servite as he was removed from all of his leadership roles in the school. Surprisingly enough, he fully agreed with his punishment handed down by the administration and fully understood why he was given such severe discipline(惩处)."When you agree to come to Servite, you are agreeing to defend what Servite stands for," the young man said." That continues past the hours of 8 am and 2 pm. It's at all times."

　　So, next time you are about to post something you think could be received as offensive or inappropriate, think twice, think again, and don't press send.

32. What does the author think the teens should do in the first paragraph?

A. Avoid using social media.   B. Remove their own digital documents.

C. Be responsible for what they put online.  D. Learn to balance their online and offline time.

33. What mistake did Aaron make online?

A. Drawing some meaningless pictures.  B. Making some bad comments.

C. Failing to take his lesson.   D. Breaking down a special web page.

34. What did Servite do with Aaron's case?

A. It reached an agreement with Connelly girls.  B. It helped Aaron get rid of ill effects.

C. It gave Aaron a severe punishment.  D. It stood on Aaron's side.

35. For whom is the text probably intended?

A. Teenagers.  B. Teachers.  C. Parents.  D. Network engineers.

第二节(共 5小题； 每小题2.5分，满分12.5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。

　　Sleeping in class prevents you from paying attention to the teacher as well as stops you from learning about the material that is being taught.  36  It is important to determine why you are falling asleep in class and try to change the situation so that you are able to stay awake and pass all of your classes. There are a number of different tricks you can use to try to stay awake, as well as habits you can adopt to help your alertness.

　　Get a full night's sleep on school nights. The National Sleep Foundation has reported that teenagers may need more sleep than adults.  37  This is a key part to staying awake in class. If you are not tired, you are unlikely to fall asleep.

　　Eat a healthy breakfast full of nutritious foods.  38  If you get hungry or tired in the middle of the day, try eating a healthy snack like a piece of fruit or some biscuits. If necessary, drink something with sugar or caffeine in it directly before the class.

　　  39  If you are actively engaged in the information the teacher is presenting, you are less likely to doze off. Taking notes, asking questions and otherwise getting involved in classroom activities anddiscussions will make you far less likely to doze off.

Contact your doctor in order to rule out medical conditions that can cause you to fall asleep.    40  Prescription drugs may also cause sleepiness or drowsiness as a side effect, so discuss any medicines you are taking with your doctor.

A. Get involved during class.

B. Early to bed, early to rise.

C. It can also get you in trouble with your teachers.

D. It can provide you with enough protein to fuel your body.

E. Energy-boosting drinks keep you energized during the time you're in class.

F. If you have a medical condition that is causing you to fall asleep in class, you will need to be treated by a professional.

G. Go to bed earlier and make sure you get as many hours of sleep as your body needs.

    Once President Roosevelt's house was broken into and lots of things were stolen. Hearing this, one of Roosevelt's friends wrote to him and _41_ him not to take it to his heart so much. President Roosevelt _42_ immediately, saying, "Dear friend, thank you for your letter to _43_ me. I'm all right now. I think I should thank God. This is because of the following three reasons: firstly, the thief only stole things from me but did not _44_ me at all; secondly, the thief has stolen some of my things _45_ all my things; thirdly, most luckily for me, it was the man _46_ me who became a thief…"

    Being _47_ is an important philosophy of life and a great _48_ . It is impossible for anyone to be lucky and successful all the time _49_ he lives in the world.

William Thackeray, a famous British writer, said, "Life is a _53_ . When you smile in front of it, it will also smile and so will it when you cry to it. "

If you are grateful to life, it will bring you shining sunlight. If you always complain about everything, you may own _54_ in the end. When we are successful, we can surely have many reasons for being grateful, _55_ we have only one excuse to show ungratefulness if we fail.

Dear Kelly,

Knowing you have been in low spirits since you failed the mid-term Chinese exam, I'm really concerned about you.

Actually, everyone goes upwards and downwards during our growth. Besides, it is normal that beginners have difficulty learning Chinese. However, it's no use just feeling regret about it. Just cheer up and keep on working hard. If needed, I can help you with your Chinese learning in the second half of the term. I believe all your efforts will pay off eventually.

Hope you can get rid of the bad mood soon.

Yours sincerely,

Li Hua
