22、Chicago. A day after moving to the Windy City last year, Outland started a new job and never got a chance to explore her new surroundings. After nine months as a resident, she finally took a week off work to visit famous landmarks, museums and shopping centers that were right under her nose. If you

23、glance through a newspaper or listen to a news broadcast recently, you may hear or spot a strange word, “staycation”. Staycation is a new word the American press is employing to describe a vacation very close to your home, or simply staying at home during your vacation. It is a combination of words

24、“stay”and “vacation”. According to many news reports, these staycations are achieving great popularity among American families this year. When asked about the reason for their expected staycation, respondents stated “gas prices are too high” (61 percent), “travel in general is too expensive (44 perc

25、ent). The high price of gas for cars and airplanes has made it very expensive for Americans to travel compared to past years. When you combine this with the weak American dollar, it all adds up to people deciding to stay close to home during their traditional summer vacations. For aggressive young A

26、mericans who are trying to balance family and work, a staycation can be a great concept. They want to enjoy their homes and the attractions in their area without the stress of packing or making reservation. They wont be paying high fuel prices either directly, at the pump, or indirectly, in airfare,

27、 other than the gas required to drive around town. Absolutely, its friendlier on the environment when locals take trips to attractions in their own area, and not everyone is game for a vacation that involves staying on a hotel compound. Few people live close enough to a real destination to make this

28、 worth their while.46. How long after moving to Chicago did Sarah Outland take a staycation? A. A day B. A week C. A month D. Nine months47. The author develops the second paragraph of the passage by_. A. making a comparison B. giving a definition C. offing an analysis D. providing an example48. Sta

29、ycations are popular with American people mainly due to _. A. high traveling expenses B. stress of packing C. relatively low income D. lack of real destinations.49. The underlined part “is game for (in Para.4) means “_”. A. is tolerant of B. is opposed to C. is willing to try D. is expert in B“Every

30、one is entitled (有权) to his own opinion” is a remark commonly heard in our society. We value free speech and the rights of the individuals. The private preferences we keep, as long as they do not bother with the rights and freedoms of others, are ours to do with as we wish.Children learn this centra

31、l principal early on and soon become expert at using it effectively to suit their own purposes. The phrase “well, its just my opinion” can act as a get-out clause which avoids further questioning or the need to give an explanation. A student may well prefer to put up a brick wall and so avoid the di

32、fficult task of providing a justification (正当的理由) for their view. They know the holy position freedom of speech hold for all of us and they know the taboo (禁忌) around challenging the opinions of others when they do not produce unfavorable effects on anyone else.This can make things hard for the teac

33、her. We want to promote tolerance and respect in our classroom and give young people a sense; this is how one ought to behave. Yet, we are also seeking to develop reasoning and critical thinking. To some extent, there is an idea that peoples views carry equal weight because all individuals ought to

34、be treated equally. Treating people equally is different from treating what they say with equal weight, though. We need to make it clear to students that the right to ones opinions does not ignore the need to support them with argument when called to do so.Justification is the signal difference betw

35、een opinion and argument. Opinions are stated; arguments are advanced. Opinions are given; arguments are proposed. When we ask a student to explain themselves, we are asking them to give us something that will lend evidence to what they have said. We are asking them convince us, to persuade us, to s

36、how us the reasonableness of what it is they are saying.50. According to Paragraph 2, if you offer a get-out clause, you may .

37、ut up a brick wall to avoid giving acceptable reasons B. challenge the opinions of others to have a deep effect on them C. encourage tolerance and respect while developing reasoning and critical thinking D. tell the differences between opinion and argument52. The underlined word “them” in Paragraph

38、3 refers to . A. students B. teachers C. needs D. opinions53. Which of the following would be the best title for this passage? A. Everyone is entitled to their opinions B. Never bother with the rights of others C. “Its just my opinion” isnt good enough D. Treat what people say equally C Owning a sma

39、rtphone may not be as smart as you think. It may let you surf the Internet, listen to music and snap photos wherever you arebut it also turns you into a workaholic, it seems. A study suggests that, by giving you access to emails at all times, the all-singing, all-dancing mobilephone adds as much as

40、two hours to your working day. Researchers found that Britons work an additional 460 hours a year on average as they are able to respond to emails on their mobiles. The study by technology retailer Pixmania reveals the average UK working day is between 9 and 10 hours, but a further two hours is spen

41、t responding to or sending work emails, or making work calls. More than 90 percent of office workers have email-enabled phones, with a third accessing them more than 20 times a day. Almost one in ten admits spending up to three hours outside their normal working day checking work emails. Some worker

42、s confess they are on call almost 24 hours a day, with nine out of ten saying they make work emails and calls outside their normal working hours. The average time for first checking emails is between 6 am and 7 am, with more than a third checking their first emails in this period, and a quarter chec

43、king them between 11 pm and midnight. Ghadi Hobeika, marketing director of Pixmania, said, “The ability to access literally millions of apps, keep in contact via social networks and take photos and video as well as text and call has made smartphones invaluable for many people. However, there are dra

44、wbacks. Many companies expect their employees to be on call 24 hours a day, seven days a week, and smartphones mean that people literally cannot get away from work. The more constantly in contact we become , the more is expected of us in a work capacity(容量).”54. What can we conclude from the text? A

45、. All that glitters is not gold B. It never rains but pours C. Every coins has two sides D. Its no good crying over spilt milk 55.

47、text? A. workaholics like smartphones. B. Smartphones bring about extra work. C. smartphones make our life easier. D. Employers dont like smartphones. D It is a tall tale that terrifies most young children. Swallow a piece of chewing gum and it will remain in your body for seven years before it is d

48、igested. An even worse tale is that swallowed gum can wrap itself around your heart.But what would happen if you should accidentally eat a stick of gum? Chewing gum is made out of gum base, sweeteners, coloring and flavoring. The gum base is pretty indigestibleit is a mixture of different ingredient

49、s (成分) that our body cant absorb.Most of the time, your stomach really cannot break down the gum the way it would break down other foods. However, your digestive system has another way to deal with things you swallow. After all, we eat lots of things that we are unable to fully digest. They keep mov

50、ing along until they make it all the way through the gut(肠道) and come out at the other end one or two days later. The saliva (唾液) in our mouth will make an attempt at digesting chewing gum as soon as we put it in our mouth. It might get through the shell but many of gums base ingredients are indiges

51、tible. Its then down to our stomach muscleswhich contract and stretch, much like the way an earthworm movesto slowly force the things that we swallow through our systems.Swallowing a huge piece of gum or swallowing many small pieces of gum in a short time can cause a blockage（堵塞） within the digestiv

52、e system, most often in children, who have a thinner digestive tract than adultsbut this is extremely rare.58. Children might feel terrified after swallowing chewing gum mainly because . A. they believe the tall tale about chewing gum B. chewing gum will stay in their body for years C. their heart w

It will be eventually moved out of our body. C. It will fight against the power of the gut. D. It will stick to the

54、gut for one or two days.60. What would be the best title for the text? A. How does our digestive system work? B. Can chewing gum be swallowed by kids? C. Does swallowing chewing gum matter? D. Why swallowing chewing gum frightens kids?第二节 （共5小题，每题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从下框的A-F选项中选出能概括每一段主题的最佳选项。选项中有一项为多余项。

55、A. Reasons for Having Large Families in Some Countries.B. Calculation of Population Growth.C. Efforts Made to Lower the Mortality Rate(死亡率)D. High Fertility Rates (出生率) in Developing Countries.E. Low Fertility Rates in Developed Countries.F. Birth Control Programs.61. Population growth is determined

56、 by the relationship between births and deaths. The growth rate is calculated by the birth rate minus the death rate. If the birth rate is 4%, for example, and the death rate is 3%, the population growing at rate of 1% per year.62. Historically, families had many children, but average life expectanc

57、ies are low and many children died young. Improvements in nutrition and public health programs in the past 30 years have led to a drop in the mortality rate and hence to more rapid population growth.63. Public health programs and improved nutrition over the past 30 years have brought about declines

58、in mortality rates in the developing nations. But fertility rates have not declined as quickly, and the result has been high rates of population growth. Reduced population growth depends to some extent on decreased birth rates.64. Family planning and modern forms of birth control are important mecha

59、nisms for decreasing fertility, but by themselves such programs have had rather limited success in most countries where they have been tried. If family planning strategies are to be successful, they must make sense to the people who are supposed to benefit from them.65. To a great extent, in develop

60、ing countries people want large families because they believe they need them. In some societies, children are important sources of farm labor, and they may thus make significant contributions to household income. In societies without any social security programs for the aged, children may also provi

61、de a vital source of income for their old parents.第三部分：写作（共三节，满分55分）第一节 单词拼写（共10小题，每小题1分，满分10）根据下列各句句意和空白之后的汉语提示词，在答题卡指定区域的横线上写出对应单词的正确形式，每空只写一词。66.
