Here，in the land of loneliness and pain?I walked through the doors，and tears came to my eyes.It was a beautiful room，not Victorian，but simple and lovely.I sat down and ordered a pot of tea，a cucumber sandwich，and some scones.It felt wonderful and it felt like home.For the first time since moving，I felt as if this new city and state could be，would eventually be，my home.I would come back here and bring new friends.When Stacey visited，we would come here.I lifted my cup and made a silent toast.I toasted Stacey，whom I missed，and I toasted the sweet little tea room that lessened my pain.21The authors hometown_.Anever snows Bis still warm in winterChas a long history Dis in an area by the sea22The underlined word “treat” in Paragraph 2 probably means “_”Adelicious food Bsomething pleasantCservice Da kind of tea party23We can know from Paragraph 3 that the author_.Adidnt have a good relationship with her husbandBfelt comfortable in the new environment in springCdidnt feel lonely any more in springDwanted to actively adapt to the new environment24Which of the following about “Tea Leaves” is true?AIt made the author recall her childhood.BIt looked not wonderful.CCucumber sandwiches and scones were its specialties.DIt touched the author.BSpring is a wonderful season to celebrate rebirth and new life.The long，cold winter is over.The weather is warmer and sunnier.The trees again have leaves and the flowers are blooming.The season represents hope，joy and beauty.At this time，many people think of this classical music pieceSpring，which shows happiness.Italian composer Antonio Vivaldi wrote it in the seventeen hundreds.However，not all songs about spring are happy.This song written and sung by KD.Lang is about dreaming of spring in cold dark places.She recorded I Dream of Spring in 2008.Richard Rodgers and Oscar Hammerstein wrote It Might as Well Be Spring for the movie State Fair in 1945.Frank Sinatra sings it.It is a feeling of restlessness or excitement brought on by the coming of spring.Richard Rodgers also wrote Spring Is Here，this time with Lorenz Hart.Ella Fitzgerald sings this song about feeling lonely during this season.Frank Loesser wrote the sad song，Spring Will Be a Little Late This Year.Why has the season been delayed? Because the singers lover has left her.Sarah Vaughn released(发行) her version of the song in 1953.By now you may be thinking，“Enough with the sad songs，already！”OK，then how about a cowboy song? Gene Autry was one of the Americas most famous singing cowboys.He recorded When Its Springtime in the Rockies in 1937.And finally，well leave you with a sunny song called Up Jumped Spring.Freddie Hubbard wrote this jazz song in 1977 and Billy Taylor Trio performs it.25If you are in a bad mood，youd better listen to_.AUp Jumped SpringBI Dream of SpringCSpring Is HereDSpring Will Be a Little Late This Year26It Might as Well Be Spring is a song that_.Ais also called State FairBis sung by Ella FitzgeraldChas a lonely feelingDwas written by two people27According to the passage，which of the following is TRUE?AMost songs about spring are written by Italian composers.BK.D.Lang was good at writing happy songs.CSarah Vaughn sang the song Up Jumped Spring first.DCene Autry was a famous cowboy singer before KD.Lang.28Whats the purpose of the author in writing the passage?ATo introduce some songs about spring.BTo introduce some wonderful music.CTo introduce some famous singers.DTo express his/her love to spring.CEco City Farms are becoming more popular in cities and towns around the United States.Eco City Farms in Edmonston，Maryland，is located near shopping centers，car repairing shops and homes.The neighborhood is a workingclass community.People do not have much money，and they have limited access to fresh food in markets.Over the past two years，the farm has attracted volunteers from the community like Marcy Clark.She schools her four children at home.On a recent day she brought them to Eco City Farms for a lesson.Her son Alston Clark thinks his experience is very valuable.“I like coming out here，” he says，“You know，you connect with the earth，where your food comes from.You appreciate the food a little bit more.”Margaret Morgan started Eco City Farms.She thinks of it as a place where people can learn to live healthier lives.“Growing food in a community brings people together，” she continues，“Every piece of what we do here is a demonstration to show people everything about how to have an ecofriendly community.” she says.From the Eco City Farms people come to know that they are not only growing food and raising chickens and bees，but improving the soil with compost (肥料) made from food waste.Eco City Farms is an experimental operation.The farm gets its power not from the local electricity networks，but from the sun with solar panels.In winter，the green houses use a geothermal (地热) system.

Watching a 3D movie confuses our brain and this is why some people get headaches.But James Cameron disagrees.In fact，he recently predicted that in five years all movies would be in 3D.And there are signs that 3D is fighting back.More 3D movies were put on the market in 2012 than ever before.The Lion King 3D recently made over $150 million at the box office，and Camerons Titanic 3D made even more.Who knows what the future holds for 3D？Steven Spielberg recently said，“ Im hoping 3D gets to a point where people dont notice it because then it just becomes another tool and helps tell a story.”33The underlined sentence in Paragraph 2 probably means that in 2010,3D movies_.Awere not successful Bbecame popularCdeveloped quickly Dwere of poor quality34The example of sound and color is used mainly to show that _.AHollywood tends to absorb what is newB3D technology takes time to be acceptedCHollywood struggles with new technologyDhigh technology helps to make better movies35In Walter Murchs opinion,3D movies_.Abring movie makers great profitsBare more expensive than 2D moviesCdo great harm to peoples healthDare unsuitable for people to watch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。Dogs are usually considered as old peoples best friends.That common opinion may contain some truth，but dogs are not the only animal friends the elderly like._36_Old people enjoy the friendship with cats._37_They love to run after balls or play with anything hanging from a string (细绳)They especially enjoy playing when their owners are playing the game with them.Just like a dog，a cat can be trained to avoid unwanted behaviour or perform tricks.Cats will even fetch things!Cats are polite members of a family._38_They generally walk quietly.Cats also dont often have“accidents”Mother cats train their babies to use the litter box，and most cats will use it，from that moment on.Cats do not have to be walked.They can be left home alone for a few hours without fear.
