Time to add these to your travel list!Gippsland Lakes, AustraliaDuring the day, the Gippsland Lakes are like any other: you can swim, water ski, or sail. But at night, the landscape begins to glow due to bioluminescent algae (生物发光的藻类). In 2006, massive rainstorms caused large amounts of algae to enter into the lakes. It glows whenever the water is disturbed, but it has slowly faded with time, which is welcome news for the lakes’ ecosystem. The MaldivesThis glowing beach in the Maldives is just one of the attractive features of the nation. The sand on this beach glows in the dark because of sea shrimp (海虾). These tiny organisms give out blue light for up to a minute, lighting up your path as you walk across the beach. Halong Bay, VietnamHalong Bay is one of Vietnam’s most popular tourist destinations, but it’s not just because of its famous islands covered in green rainforests. At night, boat tours take people out on the water to see the blue-green light from the algae. Dongying, ChinaThe dreamlike sea in Dongying gives us a strong desire to travel unlike any other travel destination. The glow-in-the-dark algae is found mostly on the rock formations along the shoreline, which gives them a blue-green glow. Plus, it acts as a natural warning light if you’re swimming at night.21．What can be inferred about the Gippsland Lakes?A．They may stop glowing over time. B．They are lit by algae during the day.C．They are frequently hit by rainstorms. D．They tend to be dangerous for swimmers.22．In what way is the beach in the Maldives different from the others?A．It isn’t a popular tourist destination. B．It is surrounded by rainforests.C．Its light source isn’t algae. D．Its glow can last for a long time.23．Where can you see glowing rocks?A．At the Gippsland Lakes. B．At Halong Bay.C．On the beach in the Maldives. D．In Dongying.                              B Perry was a smart, good kid: shy, modest, and generally unlikely to cause trouble. He was getting straight A’ s in a challenging and competitive public school honors curriculum. But beneath his academic success, Perry faced a world of troubles, and while it took a while to get to know him, eventually his problems came pouring out. The problems weren’t what I’d expected though. Perry wasn’t being abused by anyone, he didn’t do drugs, and his family wasn’t always arguing. Rather, at first glance, his problems would seem more like typical adolescent complaints. And they were, in a way. But it was only as I got to understand him that L realized that Perry’s adolescent problems had grown to the point where they cast a large shadow over much of his day - to - day world. And he wasn’t alone in that aspect. One big problem was that while Perry was a strong achiever, he was not at all a happy one. “I hate waking up in the morning, because there’s all this stuff I have to do,” he said. “I just keep making lists of things to do and checking them off each day so I can get into a good college.” Once he got started, Perry’s discontent spilled out. “There’s so much to do, and I have to... It’s just stupid !”Perry was well loved by his parents. But in their efforts to nurture and support him, his parents increased his mental stress: Over time, they had taken on all his household chores, in order to leave hum more time for schoolwork and activities. Perry never really did anything for anyone except use up their time and money, and he knew it. And if he thought about backing off on his schoolwork..., well, look how much his parents were pouring into making it go well. Trapped between anger and guilt, Perry had begun to wither (消沉).24．What can we infer about Perry from the text ?A．His parents understood him completely.B．He was a perfect young man in every aspect.C．He often helped his parents with the housework.D．He was stressed despite his good performance in school.25．Why was Perry unhappy ?A．Because he had to make lists of things to do every day.B．Because his parents showered him with too much love.C．Because he had difficulty achieving remarkable academic success.D．Because he was stuck between his parents’ expectations and his own will26．What did Perry think of himself ?A．He did nothing for his parents.B．His parents didn’t support him at all.C．His problem was unusual among his peers.D．He was gifted enough to enter any university27．What is the main purpose of this text ?A．To try to discover the reason for Perry’s stress.B．To show a good example of an excellent student.C．To reflect the problems of all students during school.D．Toduce Perry’s life and his family background                                  CYou’ve heard an old Chinese saying before: Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day; teach a man to fish and you feed him for a lifetime. You may even be nodding your head in agreement right now. However, we can have a different understanding about it.When a person is starving, that’s not the time to fill their head with knowledge but to first give the person a fish-eradicating their hunger-and only then teach them to fish. Far too often, people ignore this common sense first step. They see someone who is struggling, and they rush to offer wisdom. “Let me tell you what I’d do in your position,” a well-meaning individual might offer.But few of us understand the anxiety, confusion and uncertainty that come with overwhelming need. People meeting with personal disasters don’t have the ability to think straight. Their nerves may be shot. Their confidence may be non-existent. Can you imagine what it would be like to be in that person’s situation?Rushing to offer a struggling person long-term advice is a waste of time. Instead, it makes far more sense to help them regain their emotional balance. Once their ears, heart and mind open, you’ll have an opportunity to teach a new skill.But how do we know whether a person needs a fish before a fishing lesson? Two things: One is the ability to pay attention. We need to know whether the other person is open and receptive, or looking at the world through narrowed eyes? You can’t just take their words but have to look at how the person acts and what they don’t say. The other is empathy (共情).The more successful you are, the harder it is to imagine what it must be like to be the opposite. Try to create a safe environment for emotional acceptance before the fishing lesson.28．What is the function of the first paragraph?A．To illustrate a concept. B．To bring in a new viewpoint.C．To introduce the background. D．To put up an example.29．What does the underlined word “eradicating” mean in paragraph 2?A．Getting rid of. B．Paying attention to.C．Making up for. D．Putting up with.30．What should we do first for those in disasters?A．Get them to think straight. B．Enhance their confidence.C．Satisfy their primary needs. D．Teach them a new skill.31．Which does the author probably agree with according to the last paragraph?A．Live and learn. B．Never teach a fish to swim.C．Put yourself in others’ shoes. D．Don’t teach old dogs new tricks.                                DThe Chinese giant salamander (中国大娃娃鱼) is not cute. Weighing as much as an adult human, it has brown skin, a giant mouth and mistrustful eyes. It is also one of the world’s most endangered species. And yet unlike the giant panda, the giant salamander rarely makes the news. Why do some animals strike a chord with (引起同情) humans while others draw little more than disgust?“One of the biggest factors is ‘cuteness’. Physical characteristics such as big eyes and soft features remind us of human babies,” said Hal Herzog, professor atWest Carolina University. “The salamanders are a vital part of their ecosystem. Yet, like rats and snakes, the main instinct (直觉) they inspire in humans is disgust. ”According to Graham Davey, professor at the University of Sussex, we learn to criticize certain creatures at a young age. “Babies are not born with disgust. It’s probably passed socially, culturally and within families. Some animals are disliked due to their resemblance (相似) to primary disgusting things, while others are perceived—rightly or wrongly—to pose a direct danger to the beholder. In terms of threat to humankind, disease and illness are bigger than being attacked by an animal,” Davey said. This might explain why most of us don’t find lions and bears unpleasant—they are covered with the same type of soft fur that coats toys for children, even if it might be better to avoid one in real life. As with most things, popular culture has a huge effect on how society regards animals. Whereas the movie “Free Willy” prompted a wave of sympathy for the protection of endangered killer whales, “Arachnophobia” only made more people hate spiders. Not that favoring certain cute or cool species is necessarily a bad thing for conservation. When we protect an iconic species, we protect their habitat and therefore all the organisms within it also benefit. But such species can become a victim of their own popularity. One recent study suggested that a “virtual” presence of wild animals such as elephants and tigers—be that on computer screens or T-shirts—can fool people into thinking they are more common in the wild than they really are.32．Why does the Chinese giant salamander win less sympathy than the giant panda according to Herzog?A．It is less important to the ecosystem. B．It consumes much more food.C．It has a bigger population. D．It is less attractive.33．What can be learned from Davey’s words?A．Disgust is individual-specific. B．Disgust is a learned emotion.C．Children are naturally close to animals. D．Children are more prejudiced than grown-ups.34．What are the examples of “Free Willy” and “Arachnophobia” given to show?A．How animals are treated in movies. B．The important role of popular culture.C．People’s wrong impressions of animals. D．How movies affect people’s opinions on animals.35．What did the recent study suggest?A．Unpopular animals fall victim to popular ones.B．It is sometimes harmful to favor certain animals.C．Saving wild habitats is equally important to saving animals.D．The “virtual” presence of wild animals benefits conservation. 第二节（共5小题，每小题2分，满分10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。With climate change continuing to worsen, our situation is beginning to feel increasingly serious. ____36____ Is it right? Maybe not.Techno-optimism is one of the greatest misconceptions when it comes to solutions to ensure our future. It can be defined as a belief that future technologies will solve all of our current problems. This definition reinforces (强化) the idea that there’s no reason to panic or change our current energy-intensive lifestyle. All society needs to do is look to green technology to work its magic. ____37____ One of the best examples of this optimistic misconception is the electric car. Despite being highly regarded as an eco-friendly way to get around, electric cars are not the end for the future of transport. Batteries in electric cars use chemical elements which we could be seeing a shortage of by the midcentury. ____38____ Techno-optimism has led many to believe that if everyone just switched to driving electric vehicles, we would be making incredible steps towards sustainability. However, the reality is that the amount of resources and energy needed to produce enough electric vehicles for everyone is not even remotely sustainable.____39____ Investing in public transportation and moving away from individually owned vehicles. Producing fewer cars. Improving recycling practices of old batteries. The solutions we seek should not be rooted in new technology, but be about changing the way our society functions.Techno-optimism puts too much emphasis on technology and not enough on what we can do right this minute. Unfortunately, people seem to like the picture that techno-optimism paints. ____40____ It is important to understand that the problem begins when we see those technologies as a way to make our current lifestyles eco-friendly. Until we are ready to face the need for a less complex life, we cannot make true progress towards sustainability.A．So where should we look for answers instead?B．The modern world’s simple solution is technology.C．Moreover, they are more energy intensive to produce.D．Is it a trap that many people have fallen into in recent years?E．Unfortunately, this is an incredibly dangerous opinion to hold.F．Despite any technology, we as a whole are not living sustainably.G．Nevertheless, the truth is, we need a widespread change in our lifestyles.第三部分：英语知识运用（共两节，满分45分）第一节 完形填空（共20小题，每小题1.5分，满分30分）阅读下面短文，从短文后各题的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出适合填入对应空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。  “What will we be singing for contest this year?” a student from my choir (合唱团) asked ____41____. “Maybe we will ____42____ the contest.” I said. “NO!” the kids ____43____ my idea. “We should go to contest!

   Nanshan Mountain Bamboo Scenery Zone in eastern China’s Jiangsu province told the Modern Express that recruitment had been a“headache”for   62 (year) and the zoo could not recruit enough panda caretakers due to a lack of   63 (qualify) people.
   A manager at the tour zone said being a panda keeper is more complex   64 most people realize and   65 (involve) much more than feeding and playing with them. He added   66 the job has high benchmarks for professionalism, personality and observation skills.
“There are many detailed requirements for a keeper during the raising of pandas, such as   67 (weigh) their feces, observing the pandas’ moods and distributing bamboo by scattering it around and leaving it in a vertical position,” the manager said. “Perhaps due to the high threshold, we found very few applicants meet   68 (us) requirements. So far, none of them   69 (recruit).”
   The manager said they wanted panda keepers with degrees in livestock rearing or veterinary medicine who are patient and responsible.“They must love animals. Having experience raising animals in a zoo is a plus,” said   70 manager.第四部分：写作（共两节，满分35分）第一节  短文改错（共10小题，每小题1分，满分10分）    假如英语课上老师要求同桌之间交换修改作文，请你修改你同桌写的以下作文。文中共有10处语言错误，每句中最多有两处错误。要求你在错误的地方增加、删除或修改某个单词。     增加: 在缺词处加一个漏字符号（∧）, 并在其下面写出该加的词。     删除: 把多余的词用斜线（\）划掉。     修改: 在错的词下划一横线（    ）, 并在该词下面写出修改后的词。     注意: 1.每处错误及修改均仅限一词;          2 .只允许修改10处, 多者(从第11处起)不计分。Two years before, I traveled to Brazil and I rented for a car.
