B
When a child is told he is “uncool”, it can be very painful. He may say he doesn’t care, and even act in ways that are opposite of cool on purpose. But these are simple ways to handle sadness by pretending it’s not there.
Helping a child feel better in school had to be careful. If you say, “Why are you worried about what other children think about you? It doesn’t matter!” Children know that it does matter. Instead, an active way may be best. You could say, “I’m going to do a couple of things for you to help you feel better in school.”
If a boy is having trouble making friends, the teacher can help him. The teacher can arrange things so that he has chances to use his abilities to contribute to class projects. This is how the other children learn how to value his good qualities and to like him. A teacher can also raise a child’s popularity in the group by showing that he values that child. It even helps to put him in a seat next to a very popular child, or let him be a partner with that child in activities, etc.
There are things that parents can do at home, too. Be friendly when your child brings others home to play. Encourage him to invite friends to meals and then serve the dishes they consider “super”. When you plan trips, picnics, movies, and other shows, invite another child with whom your child wants to be friends.
What you can do is to give him a chance to join a group that may be shutting him out. Then, if he has good qualities, he can start to build real friendship of his own.
4.A child who has been informed of being “uncool” may ________.
A.care nothing about it
B.pretend to get hurt very much
C.develop a sense of anger
D.do something uncool on purpose
5.A teacher can help an unpopular child by ________.
A.seeing the child as the teacher’s favorite
B.offering the child chances to show his good qualities
C.forcing other children to make friends with him
D.asking the child to do something for partners
6.Which of the following is TRUE?
A.Inviting children’s friends to family activities is good for them to make friends.
B.It’s only teachers’ work to make children popular.
C.Parents should take their children out for picnic and shows more often.
D.Children don’t care others’ comments on them.
7.Which is the best title for the text?
A.Who Care About Unpopular Children?
B.Why Are Some Children Unpopular?
C.What Do Good Qualities Unpopular Children Have?
D.How Can an Unpopular Child Be Helped?
【语篇解读】 这是一篇说明文。文章教会“我们”如何让孩子拥有更好的品质,建立自己真正的友谊。
4.D 细节理解题。根据第一段“When a child is told he is ’uncool’, it can be very painful. He may say he doesn’t care, and even act in ways that are opposite of cool on purpose.”可知:当一个孩子被告知他“不酷”时,可能会非常痛苦。他可能会说他不在乎,甚至故意做出一些不冷静的行为。故选D项。
5.B 细节理解题。根据第三段“The teacher can arrange things so that he has chances to use his abilities to contribute to class projects. This is how the other children learn how to value his good qualities and to like him. A teacher can also raise a child’s popularity in the group by showing that he values that child.”可知:老师可以把事情安排好,这样他就有机会运用自己的能力为课堂项目做出贡献。这是其他孩子学习如何珍惜他的优点和喜欢他的方式。老师也可以通过表现出对孩子的重视来提高孩子在群体中的受欢迎程度。所以老师可以通过给不受欢迎的孩子提供展示自己优秀品质的机会来帮助他们。故选B项。
6.A 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“When you plan trips, picnics, movies, and other shows, invite another child with whom your child wants to be friends.”可知,父母也可以通过多种途径帮助孩子。其中之一就是邀请其他孩子参与家庭活动,和自己的孩子交朋友。所以邀请孩子想结交的朋友参加家庭活动对他们有好处。故选A项。
7.D 主旨大意题。通过对文章的归纳总结可知,文章从老师、家长等的角度出发,提出多种解决方案,帮助孩子由一个不受欢迎的人变成拥有良好品质且会建立自己真正友谊的人。所以短文的最佳标题为“一个不受欢迎的孩子怎样得到帮助”。故选D项。

LONDON-To get a mobile phone as a gift for 14th birthday, Lucy declared to her parents that everyone else has one. Her parents gave in.
Curious to know how her daughter would use the phone, Jane Bidder, the mother, followed Lucy to the school bus in the morning. The bus seats 20, of whom half have a mobile phone. One rings and several adolescent owners fumble with their bags.
Many parents have just come to realize that the mobile phone is no longer for traveling businessmen—it is as likely to be found in school bags.
The mobile phone seems to have become something essential for today’s teens in Britain, according to a survey published last week, by NOP, a leading market research company in Britain. Research found that 66 percent of 16yearolds now have access to a mobile phone.
The mobile phone has been turned into a secret messaging service by teen users. When they are talking on the mobile, their parents are not able to eavesdrop on the second line.
The interview with 2,019 young people aged 7 to 16 found that they favor the text messaging service because they offer a secret way of keeping in touch. The days of secret notes in the classroom are dying out.
For example, “cul” means “see you later”; “lol” means “laugh out loud”; and “2nite” is the abbreviation of “tonight”. All these are based on shorthand phrases on the Internet.
Many schools have banned students using mobile phones. But they are not very successful. Still phones ring in the class and disturb study. Besides, people are worried about the health risk to kids using mobile phones.
Scientists believe children are especially vulnerable (易受伤的) to mobile radiation.
8.The story of Lucy is told to show us ________.
A.British parents always meet their children’s needs
B.how British parents accept the truth of teenagers owning a mobile phone
C.British kids have good relationship with their parents
D.why every child gets a mobile phone as a birthday present in UK
9.Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage?
A.People worry about the harm to the kids’ health by using mobile phone.
B.Teenagers want to have their own secret.
C.Teenagers like to send messages to each other.
D.Lucy does not get the mobile phone she wants.
10.The underlined word “eavesdrop” means “________”.
A.join in actively B.interrupt rudely
C.listen secretly D.watch carefully
11.Interviews discover that children like to send messages instead of ________.
A.calling each other
B.playing games online
C.writing to each other
D.greeting each other
【语篇解读】本文是说明文。文章通过讲述Lucy 要求父母给她买手机的故事告诉读者,英国父母逐渐接受孩子们拥有手机这一现象。
8.B 推理判断题。文章第一、二段讲述了Lucy要求父母给她买手机的事例,接着第三段的“Many parents have just come to realize that the mobile phone is no longer for traveling businessmen — it is as likely to be found in school bags(许多家长开始意识到手机不再是为旅行的商人准备的——它很可能是在书包里被找到).”引出话题。由此可知,作者讲述Lucy的故事是为了告诉读者英国父母如何接受青少年拥有手机的真相。故选B项。
9.D 细节理解题。根据第一段最后一句“Her parents gave in.”可知,Lucy的父母做出让步,给她买了手机,因此D项“Lucy does not get the mobile phone she wants(Lucy没有得到她想要的手机).”与原文不符。故选D项。
10.C 词义猜测题。根据第六段第一句“The interview with 2,019 young people aged 7 to 16 found that they favor the text messaging service because they offer a secret way of keeping in touch (对2019名7至16岁的年轻人的采访发现,他们喜欢短信服务是因为这是一种保持联系的秘密方式).”可知,短信服务给青少年们提供一种秘密的交流方式。由此推断,当他们讲电话时,父母再也不能“偷听”了,因此 eavesdrop意为“偷听”。故选C项。
11.C 细节理解题。根据第六段“The interview with 2,019 young people aged 7 to 16 found that they favor the text messaging service because they offer a secret way of keeping in touch. The days of secret notes in the classroom are dying out (对2019名7至16岁的年轻人的采访发现,他们喜欢短信服务是因为这是一种保持联系的秘密方式。在教室里放秘密纸条的日子正在消失).”可知,青少年们更喜欢短信交流,而传纸条已经绝迹了。故选C项。

Hacking Our Senses to Boost Learning Power
Some schools are pumping music, noises and pleasant smells into the classroom to see if it improves exam results. Could it work? Why do songs stick in our heads? What does your school smell like? Is it noisy or peaceful?
It might not seem important, but a growing body of research suggests that smells and sounds can have an impact on learning, performance and creativity. Indeed, some head teachers have recently taken to broadcasting noises and pumping smells into their schools to see whether it can boost grades. Is there anything in it? And if so, what are the implications for the way we work and study?
There is certainly some wellestablished research to suggest that some noises can have a harmful effect on learning. Numerous studies over the past 15 years have found that children attending schools under the flight paths of large airports fall behind in their exam results. Bridget Shield, a professor of acoustics (声学) at London South Bank University, and Julie Dockrell, from the Institute of Education, have been conducting studies on the effects of all sorts of noises, such as traffic and sirens (汽笛), as well as noise generated by the children themselves. When they recreated those particular sounds in an experimental setting while children completed various learning tasks, they found a significant negative effect on exam scores.
“Everything points to a bad impact of the noise on children’s performance, in numeracy, in literacy, and in spelling,” says Shield. The noise seemed to have an especially harmful effect on children with special needs.
Whether background sounds are beneficial or not seems to depend on what kind of noise it is — and the volume. In a series of studies published last year, Ravi Mehta from the College of Business at Illinois and his colleagues tested people’s creativity while exposed to a soundtrack made up of background noises — such as coffeeshop chatter and constructionsite drilling — at different volumes. They found that people were more creative when the background noises were played at a medium level than when volume was low. Loud background noise, however, damaged their creativity.
Many teachers all over the world already play music to students in class. Many are inspired by the belief that hearing music can boost IQ in later tasks, the socalled Mozart effect. While the evidence actually suggests it’s hard to say classical music boosts brainpower, researchers do think pleasant sounds before a task can sometimes lift your mood and help you perform well, says Perham, who has done his own studies on the phenomenon. The key appears to be that you enjoy what you’re hearing. “If you like the music or you like the sound — even listening to a Stephen King novel — then you do better. It doesn’t matter about the music,” he says.
So, it seems that schools that choose to prevent disturbing noises and create positive soundscapes could enhance the learning of their for students, so long as they make careful choices. Yet this isn’t the only sense being used to affect learning. Special educational needs for students at Sydenham high school in London are being encouraged to revise different subjects in the presence of different smells — grapefruit scents for maths, lavender for French and spearmint for history.
12.The four questions in the first paragraph are meant to ________.
A.create some sense of humour to please the readers
B.provide the most frequently asked questions in schools nowadays
C.hold the readers’ attention and arouse their curiosity to go on reading
D.declare the purpose of the article: to try to offer key to those questions
13.What does the conclusion of the studies of noise conducted by Bridget Shield and Julie Dockrell suggest?
A.Peaceful music plays an active role in students’ learning.
B.Not all noises have a negative impact on children’s performance.
C.We should create for school children a more peaceful environment.
D.Children with special needs might be exposed to some particular sounds.
14.Ravi Mehta’s experiment indicates that ________.
A.students’ creativity improves in a quiet environment
B.we may play some Mozart music while students are learning
C.a proper volume of background noises does improve creativity
D.noise of coffeeshop chatter is better than that of constructionsite drilling
15.Towards the positive impact of appropriate background sound and smell on students’ learning and creativity, the author’s attitude is ________.
A.ambiguous B.doubtful
C.negative D.supportive
【语篇解读】这是一篇说明文。气味和声音可以对学习、表现和创造力产生影响。一些学校正在尝试,看看引入音乐、噪音和气味是否能提高成绩。
12.C 推理判断题。由第一段第一句话“Some schools are pumping music, noises and pleasant smells into the classroom to see if it improves exam results(一些学校正在把音乐、噪音和好闻的气味注入教室,看是否能提高考试成绩).”可知,后面的四个问题都是由第一句话引出,目的在于抓住读者的注意力,激发他们继续阅读的好奇心。故选C项。
13.C 推理判断题。由第三段的“When they recreated those particular sounds in an experimental setting while children completed various learning tasks, they found a significant negative effect on exam scores.”和第四段的“’Everything points to a bad impact of the noise on children’s performance, in numeracy, in literacy, and in spelling,’ says Shield.”可推断出,噪音对孩子有害,我们应该为孩子创造一个更平静的环境。故选C项。
14.C 细节理解题。由第五段的“They found that people were more creative when the background noises were played at a medium level than when volume was low(他们发现,当背景噪音处于中等水平时,人们比音量较低时更有创造力).”可知,适当的背景噪音可以提高创造力。故选C项。
15.D 推理判断题。由最后一段的“So, it seems that schools that choose to prevent disturbing noises and create positive soundscapes could enhance the learning of their students, so long as they make careful choices.”和“Special educational needs students at Sydenham high school in London are being encouraged to revise different subjects in the presence of different smells — grapefruit scents for maths, lavender for French and spearmint for history.”可知,营造积极声音背景可促进学习,鼓励在不同科目上展现不同味道,可推断出作者的态度是支持的。故选D项。
第二节(每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)
Many friendships go through tough times, but a difficult fight may leave your relationship beyond repair. However, if you really care about this person, it will be worth the effort to fix a broken friendship. __16__

Respecting Parents Programme
Showing respect to parents is one of the Chinese traditional moral values. As most of the students today are “the only child” in their family, they often regard themselves as the “center” of the family, without caring much about their parents. Our school started a programme. It is “Respecting Parents Programme”. 10 “do’s” have been worked out for the students to follow clearly and easily, including:
“Remember your parents’ birthdays and express your good wishes to them; say ’hello’ to your parents when you see them returning home; and tell your parents where you go when you leave home.”
Since then the programme has been successful, winning praises from parents and other sides of the society. People say this is what we should have done earlier!

阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
We often take for granted the very things that most deserve our gratitude.
Growing up, I wanted to be just like my mom. Kind and caring, she always seemed to make people comfortable in her presence. For years she was a volunteer in our community. I loved going to the local nursing home to help with her until I hit my preteen years. Suddenly, I was too caught up in my adolescent world to worry about helping others.
One particular summer day when I was twelve, Mom came into my room and told me to get up and meet her at the car. I had planned to spend the day at the lake with friends. Why did she have to ruin everything? Eventually, I made my way outside. I imagined the lake water cooling my skin. Annoyed, I climbed into the car and slammed the door shut. I sat in silence, too upset to make a conversation.
“Tasha, would you like to know where we are going?” Mom asked calmly.
“I guess…,” I murmured under my breath.
“Sweetheart, we are going to a children’s shelter, I have been there before and I think it would benefit you,” she explained.
I felt a knot slowly form in my stomach. How was I supposed to help there?
When we reached the shelter, I was rather surprised. It was a large white Victorian home. As we approached the large front porch, wind bells played a calming tune while trees and blossoms welcomed us. Maybe this wasn’t going to be so bad.
Mom rang the doorbell. The door flew open and we were led to the front room, where all of the children were playing. Toys were spread out across the floor. I noticed a baby whose body was scarred with wounds. The majority of the children had noticeable physical scars(伤疤) such as cuts, scratches and burns. What a terrible life they had before they moved here! My heart sank.
注意:
1.续写词数应为150左右;

【答案】One possible version:
As_I_was_Looking_around,_I_felt_a_gentle_pull_on_my_shirt. I looked down to see a little girl with brown eyes looking up at me. Her angelic face beamed, though, as I could see, there were some scars on her little arms. “Hi. I’m Ashley. You wanna play dolls with me?” she asked. I looked over and saw Mom nodding to me with a smile. I bent toward Ashley and whispered, “Sure. I’d love to.” Her tiny hand reached up and took mine, and we walked toward the doll house. Our time together brought her great joy and fun and she also made my day.
I_returned_to_the_shelter_with_Mom_several_times. During those visits, some of the children including Ashley shared their troubled pasts with me in great detail. I felt sore for what had happened to them and treasured the friendship between us. I would like to do everything in my power to help the children there. At the same time, I learned to be grateful for all that I had. It was a profound time in my young life that I will never forget. It was Mom who taught me the valuable lesson that summer.

B
When a child is told he is “uncool”, it can be very painful. He may say he doesn’t care, and even act in ways that are opposite of cool on purpose. But these are simple ways to handle sadness by pretending it’s not there.
Helping a child feel better in school had to be careful. If you say, “Why are you worried about what other children think about you? It doesn’t matter!” Children know that it does matter. Instead, an active way may be best. You could say, “I’m going to do a couple of things for you to help you feel better in school.”
If a boy is having trouble making friends, the teacher can help him. The teacher can arrange things so that he has chances to use his abilities to contribute to class projects. This is how the other children learn how to value his good qualities and to like him. A teacher can also raise a child’s popularity in the group by showing that he values that child. It even helps to put him in a seat next to a very popular child, or let him be a partner with that child in activities, etc.
There are things that parents can do at home, too. Be friendly when your child brings others home to play. Encourage him to invite friends to meals and then serve the dishes they consider “super”. When you plan trips, picnics, movies, and other shows, invite another child with whom your child wants to be friends.
What you can do is to give him a chance to join a group that may be shutting him out. Then, if he has good qualities, he can start to build real friendship of his own.
4.A child who has been informed of being “uncool” may ________.
A.care nothing about it
B.pretend to get hurt very much
C.develop a sense of anger
D.do something uncool on purpose
5.A teacher can help an unpopular child by ________.
A.seeing the child as the teacher’s favorite
B.offering the child chances to show his good qualities
C.forcing other children to make friends with him
D.asking the child to do something for partners
6.Which of the following is TRUE?
A.Inviting children’s friends to family activities is good for them to make friends.
B.It’s only teachers’ work to make children popular.
C.Parents should take their children out for picnic and shows more often.
D.Children don’t care others’ comments on them.
7.Which is the best title for the text?
A.Who Care About Unpopular Children?
B.Why Are Some Children Unpopular?
C.What Do Good Qualities Unpopular Children Have?
D.How Can an Unpopular Child Be Helped?
【语篇解读】 这是一篇说明文。文章教会“我们”如何让孩子拥有更好的品质,建立自己真正的友谊。
4.D 细节理解题。根据第一段“When a child is told he is ’uncool’, it can be very painful. He may say he doesn’t care, and even act in ways that are opposite of cool on purpose.”可知:当一个孩子被告知他“不酷”时,可能会非常痛苦。他可能会说他不在乎,甚至故意做出一些不冷静的行为。故选D项。
5.B 细节理解题。根据第三段“The teacher can arrange things so that he has chances to use his abilities to contribute to class projects. This is how the other children learn how to value his good qualities and to like him. A teacher can also raise a child’s popularity in the group by showing that he values that child.”可知:老师可以把事情安排好,这样他就有机会运用自己的能力为课堂项目做出贡献。这是其他孩子学习如何珍惜他的优点和喜欢他的方式。老师也可以通过表现出对孩子的重视来提高孩子在群体中的受欢迎程度。所以老师可以通过给不受欢迎的孩子提供展示自己优秀品质的机会来帮助他们。故选B项。
6.A 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“When you plan trips, picnics, movies, and other shows, invite another child with whom your child wants to be friends.”可知,父母也可以通过多种途径帮助孩子。其中之一就是邀请其他孩子参与家庭活动,和自己的孩子交朋友。所以邀请孩子想结交的朋友参加家庭活动对他们有好处。故选A项。
7.D 主旨大意题。通过对文章的归纳总结可知,文章从老师、家长等的角度出发,提出多种解决方案,帮助孩子由一个不受欢迎的人变成拥有良好品质且会建立自己真正友谊的人。所以短文的最佳标题为“一个不受欢迎的孩子怎样得到帮助”。故选D项。
C
LONDON-To get a mobile phone as a gift for 14th birthday, Lucy declared to her parents that everyone else has one. Her parents gave in.
Curious to know how her daughter would use the phone, Jane Bidder, the mother, followed Lucy to the school bus in the morning. The bus seats 20, of whom half have a mobile phone. One rings and several adolescent owners fumble with their bags.
Many parents have just come to realize that the mobile phone is no longer for traveling businessmen—it is as likely to be found in school bags.
The mobile phone seems to have become something essential for today’s teens in Britain, according to a survey published last week, by NOP, a leading market research company in Britain. Research found that 66 percent of 16yearolds now have access to a mobile phone.
The mobile phone has been turned into a secret messaging service by teen users. When they are talking on the mobile, their parents are not able to eavesdrop on the second line.
The interview with 2,019 young people aged 7 to 16 found that they favor the text messaging service because they offer a secret way of keeping in touch. The days of secret notes in the classroom are dying out.
For example, “cul” means “see you later”; “lol” means “laugh out loud”; and “2nite” is the abbreviation of “tonight”. All these are based on shorthand phrases on the Internet.
Many schools have banned students using mobile phones. But they are not very successful. Still phones ring in the class and disturb study. Besides, people are worried about the health risk to kids using mobile phones.
Scientists believe children are especially vulnerable (易受伤的) to mobile radiation.
8.The story of Lucy is told to show us ________.
A.British parents always meet their children’s needs
B.how British parents accept the truth of teenagers owning a mobile phone
C.British kids have good relationship with their parents
D.why every child gets a mobile phone as a birthday present in UK
9.Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage?
A.People worry about the harm to the kids’ health by using mobile phone.
B.Teenagers want to have their own secret.
C.Teenagers like to send messages to each other.
D.Lucy does not get the mobile phone she wants.
10.The underlined word “eavesdrop” means “________”.
A.join in actively B.interrupt rudely
C.listen secretly D.watch carefully
11.Interviews discover that children like to send messages instead of ________.
A.calling each other
B.playing games online
C.writing to each other
D.greeting each other
【语篇解读】本文是说明文。文章通过讲述Lucy 要求父母给她买手机的故事告诉读者,英国父母逐渐接受孩子们拥有手机这一现象。
8.B 推理判断题。文章第一、二段讲述了Lucy要求父母给她买手机的事例,接着第三段的“Many parents have just come to realize that the mobile phone is no longer for traveling businessmen — it is as likely to be found in school bags(许多家长开始意识到手机不再是为旅行的商人准备的——它很可能是在书包里被找到).”引出话题。由此可知,作者讲述Lucy的故事是为了告诉读者英国父母如何接受青少年拥有手机的真相。故选B项。
9.D 细节理解题。根据第一段最后一句“Her parents gave in.”可知,Lucy的父母做出让步,给她买了手机,因此D项“Lucy does not get the mobile phone she wants(Lucy没有得到她想要的手机).”与原文不符。故选D项。
10.C 词义猜测题。根据第六段第一句“The interview with 2,019 young people aged 7 to 16 found that they favor the text messaging service because they offer a secret way of keeping in touch (对2019名7至16岁的年轻人的采访发现,他们喜欢短信服务是因为这是一种保持联系的秘密方式).”可知,短信服务给青少年们提供一种秘密的交流方式。由此推断,当他们讲电话时,父母再也不能“偷听”了,因此 eavesdrop意为“偷听”。故选C项。
11.C 细节理解题。根据第六段“The interview with 2,019 young people aged 7 to 16 found that they favor the text messaging service because they offer a secret way of keeping in touch. The days of secret notes in the classroom are dying out (对2019名7至16岁的年轻人的采访发现,他们喜欢短信服务是因为这是一种保持联系的秘密方式。在教室里放秘密纸条的日子正在消失).”可知,青少年们更喜欢短信交流,而传纸条已经绝迹了。故选C项。

Hacking Our Senses to Boost Learning Power
Some schools are pumping music, noises and pleasant smells into the classroom to see if it improves exam results. Could it work? Why do songs stick in our heads? What does your school smell like? Is it noisy or peaceful?
It might not seem important, but a growing body of research suggests that smells and sounds can have an impact on learning, performance and creativity. Indeed, some head teachers have recently taken to broadcasting noises and pumping smells into their schools to see whether it can boost grades. Is there anything in it? And if so, what are the implications for the way we work and study?
There is certainly some wellestablished research to suggest that some noises can have a harmful effect on learning. Numerous studies over the past 15 years have found that children attending schools under the flight paths of large airports fall behind in their exam results. Bridget Shield, a professor of acoustics (声学) at London South Bank University, and Julie Dockrell, from the Institute of Education, have been conducting studies on the effects of all sorts of noises, such as traffic and sirens (汽笛), as well as noise generated by the children themselves. When they recreated those particular sounds in an experimental setting while children completed various learning tasks, they found a significant negative effect on exam scores.
“Everything points to a bad impact of the noise on children’s performance, in numeracy, in literacy, and in spelling,” says Shield. The noise seemed to have an especially harmful effect on children with special needs.
Whether background sounds are beneficial or not seems to depend on what kind of noise it is — and the volume. In a series of studies published last year, Ravi Mehta from the College of Business at Illinois and his colleagues tested people’s creativity while exposed to a soundtrack made up of background noises — such as coffeeshop chatter and constructionsite drilling — at different volumes. They found that people were more creative when the background noises were played at a medium level than when volume was low. Loud background noise, however, damaged their creativity.
Many teachers all over the world already play music to students in class. Many are inspired by the belief that hearing music can boost IQ in later tasks, the socalled Mozart effect. While the evidence actually suggests it’s hard to say classical music boosts brainpower, researchers do think pleasant sounds before a task can sometimes lift your mood and help you perform well, says Perham, who has done his own studies on the phenomenon. The key appears to be that you enjoy what you’re hearing. “If you like the music or you like the sound — even listening to a Stephen King novel — then you do better. It doesn’t matter about the music,” he says.
So, it seems that schools that choose to prevent disturbing noises and create positive soundscapes could enhance the learning of their for students, so long as they make careful choices. Yet this isn’t the only sense being used to affect learning. Special educational needs for students at Sydenham high school in London are being encouraged to revise different subjects in the presence of different smells — grapefruit scents for maths, lavender for French and spearmint for history.
12.The four questions in the first paragraph are meant to ________.
A.create some sense of humour to please the readers
B.provide the most frequently asked questions in schools nowadays
C.hold the readers’ attention and arouse their curiosity to go on reading
D.declare the purpose of the article: to try to offer key to those questions
13.What does the conclusion of the studies of noise conducted by Bridget Shield and Julie Dockrell suggest?
A.Peaceful music plays an active role in students’ learning.
B.Not all noises have a negative impact on children’s performance.
C.We should create for school children a more peaceful environment.
D.Children with special needs might be exposed to some particular sounds.
14.Ravi Mehta’s experiment indicates that ________.
A.students’ creativity improves in a quiet environment
B.we may play some Mozart music while students are learning
C.a proper volume of background noises does improve creativity
D.noise of coffeeshop chatter is better than that of constructionsite drilling
15.Towards the positive impact of appropriate background sound and smell on students’ learning and creativity, the author’s attitude is ________.
A.ambiguous B.doubtful
C.negative D.supportive
【语篇解读】这是一篇说明文。气味和声音可以对学习、表现和创造力产生影响。一些学校正在尝试,看看引入音乐、噪音和气味是否能提高成绩。
12.C 推理判断题。由第一段第一句话“Some schools are pumping music, noises and pleasant smells into the classroom to see if it improves exam results(一些学校正在把音乐、噪音和好闻的气味注入教室,看是否能提高考试成绩).”可知,后面的四个问题都是由第一句话引出,目的在于抓住读者的注意力,激发他们继续阅读的好奇心。故选C项。
13.C 推理判断题。由第三段的“When they recreated those particular sounds in an experimental setting while children completed various learning tasks, they found a significant negative effect on exam scores.”和第四段的“’Everything points to a bad impact of the noise on children’s performance, in numeracy, in literacy, and in spelling,’ says Shield.”可推断出,噪音对孩子有害,我们应该为孩子创造一个更平静的环境。故选C项。
14.C 细节理解题。由第五段的“They found that people were more creative when the background noises were played at a medium level than when volume was low(他们发现,当背景噪音处于中等水平时,人们比音量较低时更有创造力).”可知,适当的背景噪音可以提高创造力。故选C项。
15.D 推理判断题。由最后一段的“So, it seems that schools that choose to prevent disturbing noises and create positive soundscapes could enhance the learning of their students, so long as they make careful choices.”和“Special educational needs students at Sydenham high school in London are being encouraged to revise different subjects in the presence of different smells — grapefruit scents for maths, lavender for French and spearmint for history.”可知,营造积极声音背景可促进学习,鼓励在不同科目上展现不同味道,可推断出作者的态度是支持的。故选D项。

【语篇解读】这是一篇记叙文。主要记叙了作者和好朋友Jack在各自三十多岁时,计划步行穿越美国的事情。他们预计步行需要6个月的时间,也可能更久。
36.it 考查代词。句意:一部分原因是为了测试我们自己;看看我们是否能面对这些挑战。此处指代上文“why we were doing it”这句话,应用代词it。故填it。
37.if/whether 考查连接词。此处为宾语从句,从句中不缺少成分,且表示“是否”,应用if或whether引导。故填if/whether。
38.graduating/graduation 考查非谓语动词或名词。after为介词,后跟动名词或名词作宾语,故填graduating/graduation。
39.However 考查副词。句意:然而,我没有那样做。结合上下文语境可知为转折关系,故用however,句首字母要大写。故填However。

【答案】One possible version:
Respecting Parents Programme
Showing respect to parents is one of the Chinese traditional moral values. As most of the students today are “the only child” in their family, they often regard themselves as the “center” of the family, without caring much about their parents. Our school started a programme. It is “Respecting Parents Programme”. 10 “do’s” have been worked out for the students to follow clearly and easily, including:
“Remember your parents’ birthdays and express your good wishes to them; say ’hello’ to your parents when you see them returning home; and tell your parents where you go when you leave home.”
Since then the programme has been successful, winning praises from parents and other sides of the society. People say this is what we should have done earlier!
第二节(满分25分)
阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
We often take for granted the very things that most deserve our gratitude.
Growing up, I wanted to be just like my mom. Kind and caring, she always seemed to make people comfortable in her presence. For years she was a volunteer in our community. I loved going to the local nursing home to help with her until I hit my preteen years. Suddenly, I was too caught up in my adolescent world to worry about helping others.
One particular summer day when I was twelve, Mom came into my room and told me to get up and meet her at the car. I had planned to spend the day at the lake with friends. Why did she have to ruin everything? Eventually, I made my way outside. I imagined the lake water cooling my skin. Annoyed, I climbed into the car and slammed the door shut. I sat in silence, too upset to make a conversation.
“Tasha, would you like to know where we are going?” Mom asked calmly.
“I guess…,” I murmured under my breath.
“Sweetheart, we are going to a children’s shelter, I have been there before and I think it would benefit you,” she explained.
I felt a knot slowly form in my stomach. How was I supposed to help there?
When we reached the shelter, I was rather surprised. It was a large white Victorian home. As we approached the large front porch, wind bells played a calming tune while trees and blossoms welcomed us. Maybe this wasn’t going to be so bad.
Mom rang the doorbell. The door flew open and we were led to the front room, where all of the children were playing. Toys were spread out across the floor. I noticed a baby whose body was scarred with wounds. The majority of the children had noticeable physical scars(伤疤) such as cuts, scratches and burns. What a terrible life they had before they moved here! My heart sank.

【答案】One possible version:
As_I_was_Looking_around,_I_felt_a_gentle_pull_on_my_shirt. I looked down to see a little girl with brown eyes looking up at me. Her angelic face beamed, though, as I could see, there were some scars on her little arms. “Hi. I’m Ashley. You wanna play dolls with me?” she asked. I looked over and saw Mom nodding to me with a smile. I bent toward Ashley and whispered, “Sure. I’d love to.” Her tiny hand reached up and took mine, and we walked toward the doll house. Our time together brought her great joy and fun and she also made my day.
I_returned_to_the_shelter_with_Mom_several_times. During those visits, some of the children including Ashley shared their troubled pasts with me in great detail. I felt sore for what had happened to them and treasured the friendship between us. I would like to do everything in my power to help the children there. At the same time, I learned to be grateful for all that I had. It was a profound time in my young life that I will never forget. It was Mom who taught me the valuable lesson that summer.
