二、完形填空:

All of my students I taught at Saint Mary’s School in Morris, Minnesota were dear to me, but Mark was one in a million. His happy-to-be-alive attitude made even his occasional naughtiness 21 .

Mark talked 22 in class. I had to remind him again and again that talking without 23 was unacceptable. What impressed me so much, though, was his sincere response every time

I had to correct him for misbehaving, “Thank you for correcting me, Madam!” I didn’t know

what to make of it at first, but before long I became 24 hearing it many times a day.

However, one morning my patience was 25 when Mark talked once too often. I warned Mark, “If you say one more word, I am going to tape your mouth 26 !”

It wasn’t ten seconds later when Chuck blurted out（脱口说出）, “Mark is talking again.”

I hadn’t asked any of the students to help me 27 Mark, but since I had stated the 28

Taking out a roll of masking tape from the drawer of my desk, I walked to Mark’s desk,

三、阅读理解:

A

Today, we complete our story about the influential English writer William Shakespeare. He wrote

plays and poems during the late fifteenth and early sixteenth centuries, which remain very popular today.

During earlier times, people would probably have learned several ancient Roman and Greek plays. It was not unusual for writers to produce more current versions of these works. For example, in Shakespeare’s play “The Comedy of Errors”,Shakespeare borrowed certain details from the ancient Roman writer Plautus. For his play “Macbeth”, Shakespeare most likely used a work on Scottish history by Raphael Holinshed for information. Shakespeare might have borrowed from other writers, but the intensity（强度）of his imagination and language made the plays his own. While many plays by other writers of his time have been forgotten, Shakespeare and his art live on.

Shakespeare was also influenced by the world around him. He described the sights and sounds of London in his plays. His works include observations about political struggles, the fear of diseases, and the popular language of the city’s tradesmen. Shakespeare’s knowledge of the English countryside is also clear. His works include descriptions of deep forests, local flowers, and the ancient popular traditions of rural people.

It would be impossible to list all of the ways in which Shakespeare’s works have influenced the world culture. But the first and greatest example would be his great influence on the English language. During his time, the English language was changing. Many new words from other languages were being added. Shakespeare used his sharp mind and poetic inventiveness to create hundreds of new words and rework old ones. For example, he created the noun forms of “critic”, “mountaineer” and “eyeball”. Many common expressions in English come from his plays, including “pomp and circumstance（装腔作势）” from “Othello”, “full circle（绕圈子地）” from “King Lear”, etc. The list of cultural creations in fluenced by Shakespeare is almost endless. From paintings to television to music and dance, Shakespeare was well represented. Shakespeare’s plays have been translated into every major language in the world.

Shakespeare became a well-known writer during a golden age of theater. His years of hard work paid off.

36. From the passage, we can see that ________.

A. Shakespeare was hard-working when he was a student

B. many of Shakespeare’s works were influenced by earlier writings

C. the experience of living in London had no effect on Shakespeare’s works

D. Shakespeare became rich later because of the popularity of his works

37. Why could Shakespeare’s works survive his time?

A. Because there were so few people writing plays in his time.

B. Because he produced too many works that nobody else could do.

C. Because his works were rich in imagination and language.

D. Because he was a rich and influential person of his time.

38. Shakespeare’s greatest influence should be on .

A. paintings

B. television

C. the English language

D. music and dance

39. The passage is mainly about .

A. an introduction to Shakespeare’s life and his works

B. the main features and styles of Shakespeare’s plays

C. Shakespeare’s greatest influence on the world culture.

D. how culture influenced Shakespeare and he influenced culture.

B

One of our biggest fears nowadays is that our kids might some day get lost in a “sea of technology” rather than experiencing the natural world. Fear-producing TV and computer games are leading to a serious disconnection between kids and the great outdoors, which will change the wild places of the world, its creatures and human health for the worse, unless adults get working on child’s play.

Each of us has a place in nature we go sometimes, even if it was torn down. We cannot be the last generation to have that place. At this rate, kids who miss the sense of wonder outdoors will not grow up to be protectors of natural landscapes. “If the decline in parks use continues across Nort h America, who will defend parks against encroachment（蚕食）?” asks Richard Louv, author of Last Child in the Woods.

Without having a nature experience, kids, can turn out just fine, but they are missing out a huge enrichment of their lives. That applies to everything from their physical health and mental health, to stress levels, creativity and cognitive（认知的）skills. Experts predict modern kids will have poorer health than their parents — and they say a lack of outside play is surely part of it; research suggests that kids do better academically in schools with a nature component and that play in nature fosters（培养）leadership by the smartest, not by the toughest. Even a tiny outdoor experience can create wonder in a child. The three-year-old turning over his first rock realizes he is not alone in the world. A clump of trees on the roadside can be the whole universe in his eyes. We really need to value that more.

Kids are not to blame. They are over-protected and frightened. It is dangerous out there from time to time, but repetitive stress from computers is replacing breaking an arm as a childhood rite of passage（通过仪式）.

Everyone, from developers, to schools and outdoorsy citizens, should help regain for our kids some of the freedom and joy of exploring, taking friendship in fields and woods that strengthen love, respect and need for landscape. As parents, we should devote some of our energies to taking our kids into nature. This could yet be our greatest cause.

40. According to the passage, children without experiencing nature will _________.

A. be less healthy both physically and mentally

B. keep a high sense of wonder

C. be over-protected by their parents

D. change wild places and creatures for the better

41. According to the author, children’s breaking an arm is _________.

A. the fault on the part of their parents

B. the result of their own carelessness in play

C. the natural experience in their growing up

D. the effect of their repetitive stress from computers

42. In writing this passage, the author mainly intends to _________.

A. blame children for getting lost in computer games

B. show his concern about children’s lack of experience in nature

C. encourage children to protect parks from encroachment

D. inspire children to keep the sense of wonder about things around 答案

三、阅读理解:

Antidepressant（抗忧郁）drugs such as Prozac were viewed in the early 1900's as wonder pills that would remove depressive blues for good．But in the past five years, growing scientific evidence has shown these drugs work for only a minority of people．And now a research journal says that these antidepressants can make many patients' depression worse．This alarming suggestion centres on the very chemical that is targeted by antidepressants-serotonin （血清素）．Drugs such as Prozac are known as selective serotonin re-uptake inhibitors （or SSRIs）．Their aim is to increase the level of this ‘feel-good' chemical in the brain．But the new research, published in the journal Frontiers In Evolutionary Psychology, points out that serotonin is like a chemical Swiss Army knife, performing a very wide range of jobs in the brain and body．And when we start changing serotonin levels purposely, it may cause a wide range of unwanted effects．These can include digestive problems and even early deaths in older

people, according to the study's lead researcher Paul Andrews．" We need to be much more cautious about use of these drugs," says Andrews, an assistant professor of evolutionary psychology at McMaster University in Ontario, Canada．

Previous research has suggested that the drugs provide little benefit for most people with mild depression, and actively help only a few of the most severely depressed．Famous psychologist Irving Kirsch has found that for many patients, SSRIs are no more effective than a placebo pill．A research in 2010 0n Danish children found a small, but significant, increase in the risk of heart problems among babies whose mothers had used SSRIs in early pregnancy（怀孕）．The key to understanding these side-effects is serotonin, says Andrews．Serotonin is also the reason why patients can often end up feeling still more depressed after they have finished a course of SSRI drugs．He argues that SSRI antidepressants disturb the brain, leaving the patient an even greater depression than before．

"After long use, when a patient stops taking SSRIs, the brain will lower its levels of serotonin production," he says, adding that it also changes the way receptors in the brain respond to serotonin, making the brain less sensitive to the chemical．These changes are believed to be temporary, but studies indicate that the effects may continue for up to two years．Most disturbingly of all, Andrews' review features three recent studies which, he says ,show that elderly antidepressant users are more likely to die earlier than non-users, even after taking other important variables into account．One study, published in the British Medical Journal last year, found patients given SSRIs were more than 4 per cent more likely to die in the next year than those not on the drugs．

"Serotonin is an ancient chemical," says Andrews．"It is regulating many different processes, and when you disturb these things, you can expect that it is going to cause some harm．"

Stafford Lightman, professor of medicine at the University of Bristol, and a leading UK expert in brain chemicals and hormones, says Andrews' review highlights some important problems, yet it should also be taken with a pinch of salt．"This report is doing the opposite of what drug companies do," he says．“'Drug companies selectively present all the positives in their research, while this search selectively presents all the negatives that can be found．Nevertheless, Andrews' study is useful in that it is always worth pointing out that there is a downside to any medicine．" Professor Lightman adds that there is still a great deal we don't know about SSRIs-not least what they actually do in our brains．

When it comes to understanding why the drugs work only for a limited part of patients, U．S．scientists think they might now have the answer．They think that in many depressed patients, it's not only the lack of feel-good serotonin causing their depression, but also a failure in the area of the brain that produces new cells throughout our lives．This area, the hippocampus, is also responsible for regulating mood and memory．Research suggests that in patients whose hippocampus has lost the ability to produce new cells, SSRIs do not bring any benefit．41．According to paragraph 2, serotonin, like a chemical Swiss Army knife, can .

A．make many patients' depression worse

B．cause a wide range of unwanted effects

C．affect human body and brain in various ways

D．provide little benefit for most depressed people.

42．We can learn from the text that .

A．the number of patients with depression has decreased

B．antidepressants can benefit people with mild depression

C．people have realized that Prozac cannot be used to treat depression

D．antidepressants may increase the risk of early death in older people 43．In Stafford Lightman's opinion, .

A．drug companies don't know the negative effect of antidepressants

B．Andrews focused on different things from the drug companies

C．scientists have found what SSRIs do in the brain

D．Andrews' research has no medical value

44．Which of the following is TRUE about SSRIs?

A．They are used to increase the "feel-good" medical in the brain．

B．They can work even when the hippocampus can't produce new cells．

C．They create a risk of heart problems in pregnant women．

D．They are responsible for controlling mood and memory.

45．What does the underlined sentence mean in Paragraph 6?

A．Andrews' review might not be completely true．．

B．Andrews need to do more research to support his viewpoint．

C．Andrew doesn't consider drug companies' interests．

D．Andrews has found one of the disadvantages of the medicine．46．What is the text mainly about?

A．The aim of drug companies．B．The function of SSRIs．C．The side-effects of antidepressants．D．The cause of depression．答案

二、完形填空:

My name is Amy. I’m a 25-year-old graduate student who likes yoga, home-decorating shows and eating spoonfuls of peanut butter 21 from the jar. Oh yeah, and I’m an iPhone addict.

I wasn’t always an addict. In fact, for many years I told myself I didn’t want a 22 cellphone. They seemed like too much work, always beeping, ringing and 23 attention. I was 24 content with my simple antique (古董，此处指旧手机), and I didn’t expect to change my mind any time soon.

However, about a year ago, I found myself envious of all those proud iPhone owners, cradling their shiny new phones and 25 all their friends. I started listening secretly to conversations about “iPhone apps”, feeling like a26 listening to a langua ge I couldn’t speak.

Eventually I couldn’t27 my iPhone instinct (本能) any longer, and I welcomed my new iPhone into my life.

To my surprise, I suddenly found myself with a whole new circle of friends. They 28 my iPhone-related inquiries when my other friends couldn’t, and didn’t29 when I bragged about (吹嘘) all the things little Eloise (yes, I named her) could do.

However, I realized I had a problem when one day I found myself Google-mapping my way to my mailbox, which happens to be right outside my front door.

I 33 my e-mail about 20 times a day. I also experienced 34 when I left poor Eloise in the change room at the gym. 35 she beeped and needed my response?

Okay, so I was addicted to my iPhone.

I decided 36 had to be done. But, as I quickly realized, iPhones are like 37 and not easy to quit.

Then, while taking the bus to work one day, I was 38 forced to quit—at least 39 . When I reached into my purse to grab Eloise, (to refer to my e-mail for only the seventh time that morning), I found her 40 by fever. She was so hot that I dropped her immediately back into my bag. When I picked her up again, she was gone.

三、阅读理解:

“I was only thirteen when four of my team members and I were chosen by my swim coach to train with the Chinese National Team. The following piece shows how that experience has influenced me.”

The night before I left for China, my mother called me into her room. I entered not knowing what to expect. I sat down at the end of her very neatly-made bed, opposite the bedroom table on which she kept a Ming-style vase illustrated in great detail. She told me that my great-grandmother was still living in the surroundings of Beijing. Her name was Ren Li Ling and she was 97 years old. This was the first time I had ever heard of her.

The dragon on the vase snaked through the flowers and vines（藤蔓）as my mother said, “Pu Pu, look at me. You need to hear this so that when you go to China you will understand. You must keep this knowledge in your heart.”

She told me a story about my grandfather, Ren Li Ling's son, who left Beijing to go to college in Taiwan. She told me how the Chinese civil war kept him away from his mother for fifty years, so neither of them even knew that the other was alive. No one from Taiwan could visit, write, or call anyone in mainland. All lines of communication were cut off.

She told me of my grandfather's devotion to his own children, and how difficult it was for him to send his daughter to America for her education, fearing that same separation. He gave my mother all that he could give — nineteen years of love and fifty years of savings. I learned how my mother, through means only available in this country, would finally be able to unite my great-grandmother with my grandfather again. The dragon curled around the vase, connecting the separate vines. For a fleeting second, I felt it was present in my mother's room. It was all very strange, yet very clear. I began to understand that this trip to China was not just for me; it was for my mother, and her father, and his mother. Now, I had not only a future, but more significantly, a past. I saw the world with new eyes.

And so I went to China and met my great-grandmother. My great-aunt picked me up at the training center, and we rode in a taxi through the crowded city. The noise of the taxi and the city united into a deep roar. We finally stopped in front of a narrow street lined on either side with small one-level houses. As we made our way to a house like all the others, I drew the stares of many people in the street. My great-aunt led me through a rotting（朽烂的）doorway into a room with a furnace（炉子）, table, and a rocking chair where an old woman wearing gloves sat facing the doorway, covered with a worn brown blanket. I walked over and immediately embraced this frail woman as if I had known her all my life. My limited, broken Chinese wasn't up to expressing my complicated feelings. And even though I couldn't completely understand what she was saying in her thick Beijing accent, I knew — the same way I knew what my mother had been trying to tell me before I left. Her joy shone through her toothless smile. She wouldn't let go of my hand. I haltingly（结结巴巴地）asked her how she had managed to live such a long life. She answered in

words I will never forget, “Hope has kep t me alive. I have lived this long because I wanted to see my son before I died.”

My fellow team members must have wondered how two people separated by three generations could be so close. Before this trip, I would have wondered the same thing. And even now, I can't quite explain it. We were as different as two people can be; some 85 years and 8,000 miles apart. We came from two entirely different cultures; yet we were connected by a common heritage(传统).

I stayed for dinner which was cooked in a black iron wok（锅）over the furnace. The meal was lavish（过分丰盛的）, prepared in my honor. As I began to eat, with my great-grandmother beside me, I felt the dragon was present. But this time, the feeling didn't pass; the dragon had become a part of me.

My great-grandmother passed away last year at the age of 100. With her highest hopes and wildest dreams fulfilled, I know she died happy.

Hilary did not like Australia did Australia did not like Hilary．What．he could do seemed to be one of two things: die or work．Then he remembered that he was not alone in the world．He had an aunt．

She was his father's only sister, but his father used to say she brought no glory to the family．Hilary, of course, tried to discover what she had done．It seemed that she had failed to marry a nobleman．Instead, she had chosen a husband who was connected with "trade"．Of course as soon as she became "Mrs Parks" ,her brother considered her dead．Later on, Mr Parks died and left her a lot of money; but that did not bring her back to life in her brother's opinion．Hilary discovered his aunt's address．Fortunately she remained faithful and honest to him even after she fell ill．So Hilary's star shone again, and soon he moved into her house and lived as comfortably as a sailor who had just reached harbour．He had only about a sixpence in his pocket．One thing was soon clear: his aunt was seriously ill, and nothing could cure her illness．Hilary was very worried．Fate had found a home for him, and was now going to throw him out of it．There was only one thing that could save him: her will．

Unfortunately his aunt did not want to discuss money matters at all．In the end they had a quarrel about the small amount of ten pounds．Hilary was not very angry．He began to wonder about a new problem．Was it kind to want his aunt to live．any longer? Was it not better for her to die now? While he was considering what to do, his aunt told him that she was going to send for her lawyer．So she was going to make a new will, Hilary thought．She might leave all her money to someone else．Soon he reached a clear decision．He must do a great kindness to the poor old woman.
