One evening, there was a knock at the door. I opened it to see a truly sick-looking man. His face looked terribleit was swollen and red. Yet his voice was pleasant. He told me that he came for treatment and that hed been hunting for a spare room since noon, but no one would give him one. “I guess its my face.” For a moment, I hesitated, but his next words convinced me: “I will sleep in this rocking chair on the porch. My bus leaves early in the morning.” The old man had a huge heart inside his tiny body. He told me that he fished for a living to support his daughter, his daughters five children and her disabled husband. He didnt complain while telling me his story. He was grateful that no pain accompanied his disease, which was seemingly a form of skin cancer. The next morning, he said, “Can I come back and stay next time I need treatment?” I told him he was welcome to come again. On his next trip, as a gift, he brought a big fish and some large oysters(牡 蛎). In the years that he stayed with us, there was never a time that he did not bring us gifts like these. My neighbour warned me that I could lose potential renters after the old man left. Maybe we did lose renters once or twice. But if they had known him, perhaps their illnesses would have been easier to bear. I know our family will always be grateful to have known him. From him, we learned what it was to accept the bad without complaint and the good with gratitude. 24. Why did the author let the old man stay after hesitation? A. The old man looks terrible and frightening. B. The old man is pitifully undemanding. C. The old man couldt rent room from others. D. The old man talked happily with the author. 25. Which of the following shows the old man had a big heart? A. He had a large family to raise. B. He could sleep in a rocking chair. C. He didt care about his disease. D. He wanted to come back and stay the next time. 26. What can we learn about the author from the last two paragraphs? A. He was grateful for the neighbours warning. B. He and his neighbor are good friends. C. He truly appreciated the old man. D. He lost potential renters happily. 27. What can be a suitable title for the text ? A. Kindness makes the world beautiful. B. Happiness is around the corner. C. No pains, No gains. D. Live positively. C At any moment, about half the worlds population is wearing denim（牛仔布） clothes. But few realize tiny bits of denim have been adding up to a surprising amount of pollution in water, as a new study shows. Sam Athey, one of the studys authors, says, “Even though denim is made of a natural materialcotton, it contains chemicals.” Cotton fibers were treated with many types of chemicals, she notes. Some improve its durability and feel. Others give denim its distinctive blue color. Athey and her team washed jeans and found that about 50,000 microfibers came off from each pair per wash. Not all of those fibers make their way into the environment. Wastewater treatment plants catch about 83 to 99 percent of them. Catching 99 percent may sound pretty good. But one percent of 50,000 is still 500 fibers per wash. And since every pair of jeans is washed again and again, it still adds up to lots of microfibers entering the water environment. Denim microfibers showed up in sediment（沉淀物）from the Great Lakes. More of these fibers polluted a series of shallow lakes in southern Ontario. They even turned up in sediment from the Arctic Ocean in northern Canada. The team found denim accounted for 12 to 23 percent of microfibers in the sediment. There were other microfibers too. But the team focused on denim because so many people wear jeans. “Everyone wears jeans so they could be our largest input of microfibers into our streams and soils,” Athey says. “An easy way to limit that is by washing our jeans less often.” Athey grew up thinking she should wash her jeans after wearing them every couple of times, but most jean companies recommend washing them no more than once a month. “The solution is not that you shouldnt wear jeans,” she says. “We need to buy fewer denim clothes and only wash them when they truly need it.” 28. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage? A. Chemicals are contained in natural cotton. B. Chemicals can make denim colorful. C. Chemicals prevent fibers from falling. D. Chemicals can make the life of denim longer. 29. What does the underlined word “them” in Paragraph 3 refer to? A. Denim. B. Sediment. C. Microfibers. D. Chemicals. 30. What does the author mainly want to tell us through Atheys words ? A. To avoid wearing jeans. B. To reduce denim consumption. C. To wash jeans more often. D. To limit input in denim production. 31. In which section of a magazine might the text be found? A. Science. B. Entertainment. C. Tourism. D. Geography. D The regular world presented to us by our five senses you could call it reality 1.0 is not always the most user-friendly. We get lost in unfamiliar cities; we meet people whose language we dont understand. So why not try the improved version: augmented reality（AR）or reality 2.0 ? AR technology adds computer-produced images on the real world via a mobile phone camera or special video glasses. Early forms of AR are already here smart phones can deliver information about nearby ATMs and restaurants and other points of interest. But thats just the beginning. A few years from now the quantity of information available will have increased hugely. You will not only see that theres a Chinese restaurant on the next block, but you will be able to see the menu and read reviews of it. This is where the next revolution in computing will take place: in the interface（界面） between the real world and the information brought to us via the Internet. Imagine bubbles floating before your eyes, filled with cool information about anything and everything that you see in front of you. Lets jump ahead to ten years from now. A person trying to fix a car wont be reading a book with pictures; he will be wearing a device that projects animated 3D computer graphics onto the equipment under repair, labelling parts and giving step-by-step guidance. The window onto the AR world can be a smart phone or special video glasses. But in ten years time these will have been replaced by contact lenses(隐形眼镜) with tiny LEDs, which present something at a readable distance in front of eyes. So a deaf person wearing these lenses will be able to see what people are saying. The question is, while we are all absorbed in our new augmented reality world, how will we be communicating with each other? 32. What is the text mainly about? A. The relationship between reality 1.0 and reality 2.0. B. Different forms of the AR technology. C. The next information technology revolution. D. The popularity of the AR technology. 33. Which of the following will AR technology support according to the text? A. To pay for things online conveniently. B. To play online games merrily. C. To offer information efficiently. D. To communicate with others socially. 34. What are Contact lenses with tiny LEDs used for? A. Show texts and images. B. Protect peoples eyes. C. Help deaf people communicate. D. Replace smart phone. 35. Whats the authors attitude towards the AR technology? A. Indifferent. B. Critical. C. Concerned. D. Favourable. 第二节(共 5 小题，每小题 2.5 分，满分 12.5 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。 Most Western people slept in long nightshirts until the early 20th century.

Gradually, the story of Qus death transformed into the traditions of racing dragon boats and eating zongzi a kind of rice 62 (wrap) in bamboo leaves.

Every spring there are nearly 60 dragon boat races, which 64 (hold) outside of China in cities from Vancouver to Sydney, from Gdask, Poland to Cape Town, South Africa. So what is it about the Dragon Boat Festival that appeals to foreigners? “Its 65 unusual sport,” says one racer from Germany. “Theres such great team spirit in a dragon boat team everybody feels like were doing something special.” 第四部分 写作（共两节，满分 40 分） 第一节 应用文写作（满分 15 分） 假如你是李华，你的英国笔友 George 发现他身边的中国留学生越来越多，请你给他写 一封信，就国内学生出国学习这件事谈谈你自己的看法。内容包括： 1.表明你的观点； 2.说明理由。 注意：1.词数 80 左右； 2.可适当增加细节，使行文连贯。 Dear George, _ _ Yours, LiHua 第二节 读后续写（满分 25 分） 阅读下面短文，根据所给情节进行续写，使之构成一个完整的故事。 More than 30 years ago, As a teenager, I lived with my family in an old farmhouse in the Durham County countryside. I spent my summer days laboring in tobacco fields and my summer evenings shelling（给.去壳）peas in the backyard. My autumn weekends were often spent splitting logs and cutting wood. We had an indoor antenna(天线)which helped us tune into the few television stations we could receive. Living where we did, we could see three or four other houses from our own, none of them within shouting distance. We knew our neighbors, some of them elderly, we usually offered them our kindness when they needed help. Jimmy, who was seventy years old, lived alone on the far side of a tobacco field. He lost his wife two years ago. He could hardly supported himself these last couple of years since his body condition was getting even worse. We went to visit him at his home. It was a small wooden cabin with stained windows and a curtain that had been mended countless times. The poor old man would sit in an armchair by the window, holding a faded photo, and with tears in his eyes, recall happy memories of his wife. One weekend, my father went to check on Jimmy. But a rare heavy snow happened to fall. It was so heavy that h
