第一节（共 10 小题；每小题 2.5 分，满分 25 分）
阅读下列短文，从每题所给的 A、B、C 和 D 四个选项中，选出最佳选项，并在答题纸
上将该项涂黑。
A
Raised by a single mother in Hartford, Fred Wright struggled with behavioral problems and
was forced to move from one school to another. He even reached a point where he felt like he had
nothing to live for.
“I was walking around with a lot on my shoulders,” he said. “I couldn’t handle it. I didn’t
care about life anymore.” But all that started to change when Wright met Patricia Kelly.
“I was seven when I met Mrs. Kelly. I wasn’t used to strictness. I wasn’t used to hearing the
word ‘no’,” said Wright, now 17.
Kelly, a former soldier and an equestrian(骑手), took Wright under her wing and helped him
find hope in an unlikely place—on a horse.
“Wright was like a round peg that everybody kept trying to squeeze into a square hole, “Kelly
said. “He was hurting. He needed a place where he could express himself. The riding field became
that place for him.”
For the last 30 years, Kelly has helped children stay on the right track through her non-profit,
Ebony Horsewomen. The program offers horseback riding lessons and teaches animal science to
more than 300 young people a year. By exposing those children to horsemanship, Kelly aims to
give them an alternative to the streets and an opportunity to turn their lives around.
“We use horse as a hook to create pride, esteem and healing,” said Kelly, 66. “They learn that
they have ability. They just have to unlock it.”
“When you teach children to ride horses, they learn they are the center of their environment,”
said Kelly, “Once they make the connection, they can change what happens in school, at home and
in the community.”
21. Why did Fred Wright have to move from one school to another?
A. Because his mother couldn’t afford the fees.
B. Because his parents got divorced.
C. Because he behaved badly at school.
D. Because he didn’t set a life goal.
22. How did Patricia Kelly help Fred Wright?
A. She provided him with a home. B. She exposed him to the riding field.
C. She found him a better school. D. She encouraged him to learn science.
23. What can be inferred from the last two paragraphs?
A. Horse riding is helpful to the growth of kids.
B. Patricia Kelly is a very successful woman.
C. Horses are closely related to the environment.
D. It is hard for a kid to learn to ride a horse.
B
Without proper planning, tourism can cause problems. For example, too many tourists can
crowd public places that are also enjoyed by the people there. If tourists create too much traffic,
the people there become angry and unhappy. They begin to dislike tourists and to treat them
impolitely. They forget how much tourism can help the country’s economy. It is important to
think about how tourism affects them. Tourism should help a country keep the culture and beauty
that attract tourists. Tourism should be also helpful for the health and happiness of local people.
Too much tourism can be a problem. If tourism grows too quickly, people must leave other jobs
to work in the tourism industry. This means that other parts of the country’s economy can suffer.
On the other hand, if there is not enough tourism, people can lose jobs. Businesses can also
lose money. It takes a great deal of money to build large hotels, airports, air terminals, first-class
roads, and other support facilities needed by tourist attractions. For example, a major
international class tourism hotel can cost as much as 50 thousand dollars per room to build. If
this room is not used most of the time, the owners of the hotel will lose money.
Building a hotel is just a beginning. There must be many support facilities as well, including
roads to get to the hotel, electricity, sewers to handle waste and water. All of these support
facilities cost money. If they are not used because there are not enough tourists, jobs and money
are lost.
24. Which of the following probably has been discussed right before this passage?
A. It is extremely important to develop tourism.
B. Building roads and hotels is essential.
C. Support facilities are highly necessary.
D. Planning is of great importance to tourism.
25. Not enough tourism will _____.
A. cause the prices to rise and the income to fall
B. lead to fewer tourist attractions
C. have more local people out of work
D. ruin other parts of the country’s economy
26．It can be inferred from the text that ________.
A. the author doesn’t like the tourism to develop quickly
B. tourism can make a difference to the country’s economy
C. local people don’t want to be disturbed by tourists
D. too many support facilities will lead to jobs and money loss
C
Cotton farmers in some Indian villages are busily buying Coca-Cola and Pepsi, believing that
the sugar in the fizzy (起泡的) drinks kills pests.
Farmers say scientists advised them to mix pesticides with a sugary juice to control pests, and
they found the mixture cheaper and more effective than pure chemicals---although soft drinks
makers and scientists dismissed the remarks. N. Hamunayya, who has become a famous person in
his village in the south-eastern state of Andhra Pradesh, said his crop survived an attack of pests
which had resisted other pesticides. “We found that all the cola had a uniform effect on pests. The
pests became dead and fell to the ground,” he said. He said the drinks had all the elements they
needed: they were cheaper, sticky, fizzy, and attracted ants, which ate the young of the pests. But
Thinupathi Reddy, assistant director of the Regional Agriculture Research Station, Guntur, says
tests had proved such results wrong. “We conducted some field trials on cotton crop at our
research station. There was no obvious productivity or destruction of pests,” he says.
Statements from Pepsi and Coca-Cola said there was “no scientific basis” for this practice.
But their dealers are enjoying increasing sales. Mantan Wall, who sells soft drinks in 17 villages in
the region, said sales rose up, thanks to the farmers. “For the 10 days between August and
September I had successful business. Instead of just 30 cases (each containing a dozen one-litre
bottles) of cola, I started selling almost 200 cases,” he said. “We expected the sales to drop after
the news over pesticide residues (残留) in the cola drinks. Now I have to keep extra supply for the
cotton farmers,” he said.
In February, an Indian environment group made a report saying drinks made by Coca-Cola
and Pepsi contained pesticides and called for tougher safety standards. The US firms strongly
rejected the findings of the New Delhi-based Centre for Science and Environment and said their
products were safe.
27. What is the writer’s purpose of writing this passage ?
A. Introduce an incident that happened in India.
B. Warn people of the harmful effects of soft drinks.
C. Suggest using Coca-Cola and Pepsi to kill pests.
D. Announce a new discovery of some soft drinks.
28. According to paragraph 2, the drinks can kill pests because_____.
A. there is some pesticide left in them
B. they are cheaper, sticky and fizzy
C. they have all the elements that kill pests
D. they made pesticides more effective
29. What does the underlined part “this practice” in paragraph 3 probably refer to?
A. testing the mixture B. selling more drinks in India
C. mixing the drinks with pesticides D. attracting ants to eat the young pests
30. The drink makers wouldn’t accept the fact that their drinks could kill pests because_____.
A. they thought it went against science
B. they didn’t believe the farmers told the truth
C. they feared it might bring harm to their business
D. they insisted there was no poison left in their products

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。
Personally, I believe that the female brain is mainly built for empathy—the ability to
understand other people—and that the male brain is mainly built for building systems. 31 For
example, women are more likely to read magazines on fashion and parenting, while men will
choose magazines featuring computers and sport.
You may think that these preferences are influenced by the way people are taught to behave
when they are growing up. However, this is not the case. A new study carried out at Cambridge
University shows that newborn girls look longer at a face, and newborn boys look longer at a
mobile. 32 It has also been observed that girls are better at noticing signs of changes in other
people’s feelings. Boys, however, seem to enjoy building toy towers and playing with toys having
clear functions. 33 People whose jobs are in the construction industries are almost male. Math
and engineering, which require high levels of systems-thinking, are also male-chosen disciplines.
Why do men and women have the difference? Actually women have four times as many brain
neurons that connect the right and left part of their brains. Because of it, women have a better
ability to multitask than men. 34 Men tend to focus on a limited number of problems at a time.
They will separate themselves from problems and view tasks as independent from one another.
Some people may worry that I am suggesting one gender is better than the other, but this is
not the case. My theory says that males and females differ in the kinds of things that they find easy,
but that both genders have their strengths and weaknesses. 35 It is not true. The study simply
looks at males and females as two groups, and asks what differences exist and why they are there.
A. Generally speaking, there are clear differences.
B. You can see the same kind of pattern in the adult workplace.
C. Their preference for building systems may change over time.
D. They will consider many sources of information at the same time.
E. It is important to stress that the female brain may be built more for empathy.
F. That suggests certain differences between male and female brains are biological.
G. Others may think the theory creates a belief of what a particular type of person is like.

的最佳选项，并在答题纸上将该项涂黑。
Time talks. It speaks more plainly than words. Time 36 in many ways.
Consider the different parts of the day, for example. The time of the day when something is
done can give a 37 meaning to the event. It is not a 38 to telephone someone very early
in the morning. If you telephone him early in the day, 39 he is shaving or having breakfast,
the time of the call shows that something is urgent and 40 immediate attention.
The same meaning is 41 telephone calls made after 11:00 pm. If someone receives a
call during sleeping hours, he may think it is a 42 of life or death. The time chosen for the
call 43 its importance.
In social life, time plays a very 44 part. In the United States, guests tend to feel they are
not highly regarded if the 45 to a dinner party is extended only three or four days before the
party date. But this is not 46 in all countries. In other areas of the world, it may be
considered foolish to make an appointment too far 47 because plans which are made for a
date more than a week away tend to be 48 .
The meaning of time 49 from place to place in the world. 50 , misunderstandings
often arise between people from different cultures that 51 time differently. For example,
promptness(准时) is 52 greatly in American life. If people are not prompt, they may be
regarded as 53 or not fully responsible. In the US, no one would think of keeping a business
partner 54 for an hour; it would be too rude. A person who is five minutes late is 55 to
make a short apology.
36. A. wastes B. runs C. travels D. communicates
37. A. precious B.ridiculous C. special D. rare
38. A. deal B.custom C. problem D. duty
39. A. whenever B. though C. once D. while
40. A. requires B. escapes C. pays D. gives
41. A. compared with B. covered with C. devoted to D. attached to
42. A. matter B. story C. game D. view
43. A. reduces B. ignores C. stresses D. doubts
44. A. different B. significant C. small D. equal
45. A. plan B. wish C. gift D. invitation
46. A. useful B. true C. clear D. grateful
47. A. on time B. at length C. by chance D. in advance
48. A. forgotten B. remembered C. canceled D. opposed
49. A. rushes B. separates C. varies D. keeps
50. A. Meanwhile B. Thus C. Otherwise D. Besides
51. A. make B. kill C. treat D. save
52. A. valued B. complained C. seized D. influenced

第二节：概要写作（满分 25 分）
阅读下面短文，根据其内容写一篇 60 词左右的内容概要。
Many couples who already have one healthy, happy child, are facing a dilemma, that is, the
issue of whether to have a second child or not. They have hard jobs and limited time and money,
but they want to make sure that their only child does not become a lonely child. So, what are the
advantages and disadvantages of having a second child? That is what so many couples are very
much concerned about and eager to understand.
One popular saying is that one child means a lonely child. That’s why many single-child
parents plan to have a second child. They feel guilty about their decision to have only one child,
because there are no other children in the family for their only child to play with, which may make
the child feel lonely at times, especially during vacations.
Another common argument against having just one child is that an only child may be more
spoiled than one with brothers or sisters. If one couple had only one child, the child could not
learn to share things with others and are less capable of getting along well with other children than
one who grows up with brothers or sisters.
However, in many parts of the world, more and more parents are still choosing not to have a
second child because they argue that there are advantages for the child as well as the parents. With
just one child, they suggest, there is little chance of family arguments concerned with children.
Besides, as an only child in the family, the child can receive more quality time and attention. This
often leads to increased self-respect and independence, which can lead to the child being more
confident.
Unluckily, there is no simple answer to the question of whether or not to have a second child.
Every family is different, and what is proper for one family may not be for another. The important
thing, in the end, is to make a decision that both you and your spouse (配偶) feel confident about.
