She finally had lost her long battle with cancer. I heard a door open and shut at the back of the church. Quick footsteps hurried along the floor. A young man looked around briefly and then sat next to me. He folded his hands and placed them on his lap. His eyes were filled with tears. He began to sniffle.“I’m late,” he explained, though no explanation was necessary.After several eulogies (悼词), he asked, “Why do they keep calling Mary by the name of Margaret?”“Because, that was her name, Margaret. Never Mary, no one called her Mary.” I whispered.I wondered why this person couldn’t have sat on the other side of the church. Who was this stranger anyway?“Isn’t this the Lutheran Church?”“No, the Lutheran Church is across the street.”“Oh.”“I believe you’re at the wrong funeral, Sir.”The seriousness of the occasion mixed with the realization of the man’s mistake burst inside me and came out as laughter. I cupped my hands over my face, hoping it would not be noticed. Sharp looks from others only made the situation seem funnier. He was laughing too, as he glanced around, deciding it was too late to leave.“I do believe we’ll be the talk of the town,” he smiled.His name was Rick and, since he had missed his aunt’s funeral, he asked me out for a cup of coffee. That afternoon began a lifelong journey for me with this man who attended the wrong funeral, but was in the right place. A year after our meeting, we were married at a country church. This time we both arrived at the same church, right on time.4. How did the author’s mother pass away? A. She took her own life.B. She died in an accident.C. She died of old age.D.

Delivery man Liu Jia and his colleagues start the day when most of people are still asleep. Working at a distribution point of a shopping website in Shanghai, they promise to deliver products within three hours of an order being placed. “I buy most of my grocery online, especially the heavy items. It’s convenient and cheap compared to the supermarket in my neighborhood,” Customer Chen Hong said. Orders such as these have increased for the New Year, forcing Liu Jia to work around the clock. “The orders are usually rice, laundry detergent(洗涤剂), tissue paper and snacks, mostly food and articles for everyday use,” Liu Jia said.According to an industry report, China’s B2C (Business to Customer) online sales are growing at an annual rate of 25 percent. Competition between online giants like Taobao and Jingdong is now fiercer than ever. “The essence of online shopping is that customers can buy products easily. So the competition is about: firstly, the range of products; secondly, the depth under each category of products; third, the price and user experience,” Pan Biao, vice president of YHD said. E-commerce is one of China’s fastest growing sectors.  It’s changed people’s buying habits, and even their living habits. And it’s had a huge impact on the retail industry. To make online shopping more convenient, major sites are investing heavily to build payment systems and logistics(物流)networks.On average, a retailer now can deliver goods to the majority of cities within 3 days, and to towns and more remote areas in the country within a week. “Competition will produce a number of good companies, making better products and services that customers need. In the field of E-commerce, we are leading the world in terms of products, services and industry development,” Liu Yinbin, associate professor with Dept of Information Management, Shanghai University, said.Experts also say customers are increasingly making their online purchases from mobile devices, opening up vast new opportunities and competition for retailers.8 .All of the following about Liu Jia are true EXCEPT that ________.A. he works as an online store owner in ShanghaiB. he has to work around the clock to deliver so many productsC. he starts working when most of people are still asleepD. he must deliver products within three hours of an order being placed9. The possible meaning of the underlined word “essence” in Paragraph 3 is ________. A. way B. advantage C. result D. influence10. What can we learn from the passage? A. Chen Hong buys most of her electronic products online. B. Pan Biao encourages retailers to open up new chances. C. China’s B2C online sales are growing at a rate of 25 percent. D. Liu Yinbin thinks competition will help make better products and services.11. Which of the following can be the best topic of the passage? A. Customers like buying mobile devices. B. Online shopping increases rapidly for Chinese New Year. C. Most customers buy food and articles for everyday use. D. Taobao and Jingdong are competing fiercely.DPlants are flowering faster than scientists predicted (预测) in reaction to climate change, which could have long damaging effects on food chains and ecosystems. Global warming is having a great effect on hundreds of plant and animal species around the world, changing some living patterns, scientists say. Increased carbon dioxide (CO2) in the air from burning coal and oil can have an effect on how plants produce oxygen, while higher temperatures and changeable rainfall patterns can change their patterns of growth. “Predicting species’ reaction to climate change is a major challenge in ecology,” said the researches of several U.S. universities. They said plants had been the key object of study because their reaction to climate change could have an effect on food chains and ecosystem services. The study, published on the Nature website, uses the findings from plant life cycle studies and experiments across four continents and 1,634 species. It found that some experiments had underestimated the speed of flowering by 8.5 times and leafing（长出叶子） by 4 times. “Across all species, the experiments under-predicted the speed of the advance —for both leafing and flowering —that results from temperature increases,” the study said. The design of future experiments may need to be improved to better predict how plants will react to climate change, it said. Plants are necessary for life on the Earth. They are the base of the food chain, using photosynthesis (光合作用) to produce sugar from carbon dioxide and water. They let out oxygen which is needed by nearly every organism on the planet. Scientists believe the world’s average temperature has risen by about 0.8℃ since 1900, and nearly 0.2℃ every ten years since 1979. So far, efforts to cut emissions (排放) of planet-warming greenhouse gases are not seen as enough to prevent the Earth heating up beyond（超出） 2℃ this century —a point scientists say will bring the danger of a changeable climate in which weather extremes are common, leading to drought, floods, crop failures and rising sea levels.12. What is the key information the author wants to give in Paragraph 1? A. Plants’ reaction to weather could have damaging effects on ecosystems. B. The increasing speed of flowering is beyond scientists’ expectation. C. Climate change leads to the change of food production patterns. D. Food chains have been seriously damaged because of weather.13. We can learn from the study published on the Nature website that ________ .A. plants’ flowering is 8.5 times faster than leafing B. there are 1,634 plant species on the four continents C. scientists should improve the design of the experiments D. the experiments failed to predict how plants react to climate change14. Scientists pay special attention to the study of plants because ________ . A. they can prove the climate change clearly B. they are very important in the food chains C. they play a leading role in reducing global warming D. they are growing and flowering much faster than before15. What can be inferred from the last two paragraphs about the world’s temperature? A. It has risen nearly 0.2℃ since 1979. B. Its change will lead to weather extremes. C. It is 0.8℃ higher in 1979 than that of 1900. D. It needs to be controlled within 2℃ in this century.七选五 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。 Believe it or not，there's no denying that it’s much cheaper to eat unhealthily than it is to eat healthily. In the long term, all of those savings will come back to bite you in the form of large heath-care costs._ 16 So that's what this article will deal with： ways to eat healthily without breaking your bank starting today. 1. High fat does not always mean it's unhealthy. Fat is needed for survival !Many unhealthy foods are indeed high in fat._ 17 But not all foods high in fat are unhealthy. Examples of such foods include nuts, seeds, avocados(牛油果)，olive oil and foods like fish that are high in omega-3 fatty acids. 2. An official-looking logo does not mean it's healthy. As a rule, disregard all logos printed on food boxes.18 If it's some boring food item like a potato that doesn't have any health-claim stickers on it, it's probably okay to eat. 3.19 When it comes to eating healthily，the rule of thumb you can use is to find foods that have only a couple of ingredients .The more ingredients, the more processed it is and worse it is for your body in the long term. Throw out the food rules that fat-free Twizzlers are better for you than a fat-laden avocado.20 A. It is true that less is more. B. And so it has gotten a bad name. C. You'd better try your best to avoid any fat. D. But most people are only focused on the short-term. E. Whether the food is healthy or not depends on the logos. F. If it's processed food, it's probably not that good for you. G. What matters in terms of weight are calories，not fat content.二、完型填空 （共20题，每题2分）I walked into a bank in town a couple of days ago and waited in the queue.
