It is only when we can not see perfectly that we come to see how important our eyes are.People who are nearsighted can only see things that are very close to their eyes. Many people who do a lot of close work, such as writing and reading, become nearsighted. Then they have to wear glasses in order to see distant things clearly.People who are farsighted face just the opposite problem. They can see things that are far away, but they have difficulty reading a book unless they hold it at arms length. If they want to do much reading, they must get glasses too.Other people do not see clearly because their eyes are not exactly the right shape. This, too, can be corrected by glasses. Some peoples eyes become cloudy because of cataracts. Long ago these people often became blind. Now, however, it is possible to operate on the cataracts and remove them.When night falls, colors become fainter to the eyes and finally disappear. After your eyes have grown used to the dark, you can see better if you use the side of your eyes rather than the centers. Sometimes, after dark, you see a small thing to one side of you, which seems to disappear if you turn your head in its direction. This is because when you turn your head, you are looking at the thing too directly. Men on guard duty sometimes think they see something moving to one side of them. When they turn to look straight at it, they can not see it any more, and they believe they were mistaken. However, this mistake happens because the center of the eye, which is very sensitive in daylight, is not as sensitive as the sides of the eye after dark.56.We dont know that our eyes are of great importance until _.A. we cannot see clearly B. we think about our eyesC. we wear glasses D. we have to do much reading57.According to the passage, a _ is more likely to be nearsighted.A. painter B. doctor C. guard D. tailor58. who are farsighted _ .A.cannot do a lot of close work without glassesB. have the same problem as the nearsighted peopleC.have difficulty reading a book if they hold it at arms lengthD. can only see things that are very close to their eyes59.To see a small thing at night, it is better to look _ .A. in a slightly different direction B.with half shut or narrowed eyesC.straight at it D. with wide open eyesBAs any homemaker who has tried to keep order at the dinner table knows, there is far more to a family meal than foodSociologist Michael Lewis has been studying 50 families to find out just how much more. Lewis and his co-workers carried out their study by videotaping the families while they ate ordinary meals in their own homesThey found that parents with small families talk actively with each other and their childrenBut as the number of children gets larger, conversation gives way to the parents efforts to control the loud noise they makeThat can have an important effect on the children“In general the more question-asking the parents do, the higher the childrens IQ scores,” Lewis says“And the more children there are, the less question-asking there is”The study also provides an explanation for why middle children often seem to have a harder time in life than their siblingsLewis found that in families with three or four children, dinner conversation is likely to center on the oldest child, who has the most to talk about, and the youngest, who needs the most attention“Middle children are invisible,” says Lewis“When you see someone get up from the table and walk around during dinner, chances are its the middle child” There is, however, one thing that stops all conversation and prevents anyone from having attention: “When the TV is on,” Lewis says, “dinner is a non-event”60The writers purpose in writing the text is to _ A. show the relationship between parents and children Bteach parents ways to keep order at the dinner table Creport on the findings of a study Dgive information about family problems61Parents with large families ask fewer questions at dinner because _ Athey are busy serving food to their children Bthey are tired out having prepared food for the whole familyCthey have to pay more attention to younger children D. they are busy keeping order at the dinner table 62By saying “Middle children are invisible” in paragraph 3, Lewis means that middle children _Ahave to help their parents to serve dinnerBfind it hard to keep up with other childrenCare often kept away from the dinner tableDget the least attention from the family63Which of the following statements would the writer agree to? AParents should talk to each of their children frequently BIt is a good idea to have the TV on during dinner CIt is important to have the right food for children DElder children should help the younger ones at dinnerC Mrs. White lived in a town of England. Her husband died three years ago and one of her children worked in the capital and the other three lived in another town. Her husband didnt leave her much money and she had to live a simple life. Sometimes her children went to see her during their holidays, but they stayed with her for only two or three days. One winter morning the old woman got up early. She was going to buy some food in a shop. And when she came out, she found there was much snow in the street. She had to sweep it away. And suddenly she found a dying dog at the corner of the house. She picked it up and took it into the house quickly. She put it near the fire and gave it some milk and bread. At first the poor dog ate nothing and that afternoon it drank some milk and three days later it was all right. Now the old woman found it was a beautiful dog. And she liked it very much and took it everywhere she went. A week later she went shopping with her dog. At a bus stop a young man was eating fish and chips. The little dog became very excited at the smell of the mans lunch and began jumping up at him. “Do you mind if I throw it a bit?” asked the young man. “Not at all,” answered Mrs. White. Having heard this, he picked up the dog and threw it over the wall. 64. Mrs. White lived a simple life because _. A. she wasnt rich enough B. she hoped to save money for her children C. she had four children D. her children hated her 65. It was _ that morning when Mrs. White went to buy something. A. rainy B. windy C. snowy D. cloudy 66. The old woman liked the dog very much because _. A. she felt lonely B. it was little C. she spent money on it D. it was beautiful67. The dog hoped _, so it became excited. A. to leave the bus stop soon B. to be given some food C. to bite the young man D. to go as soon as possible DThere are hundreds of things that your parents controlled for you when you were a childAnd its a good thing, too kids need this kind of protection and assistance, because they arent mature enough to take care of themselves and make careful decisions on their ownBut eventually, kids grow up and become teensIts totally normal for teens to create their own opinions, thoughts, and values about life; its what prepares them for adulthoodBut as you change and grow into this new person who makes his or her own decisions, your parents may have a difficult time adjusting themselves to itIn most families, its this adjustment that can cause a lot of fighting between teens and parentsTeens get angry because they feel parents dont respect them and arent giving them space to do what they like, and parents get angry because they arent used to not being in control or they disagree with the teens decisionsIts easy for feelings to get very hurt when there are conflicts like theseAnd more complicated issues can cause even bigger arguments, because your parents will always be intent on protecting you and keeping you safe, no matter how old you areThe good news about fighting with your parents is that in many families the arguing will lessen as parents get more comfortable with the idea that their teens have a right to certain opinionsIt can take several years for parents and teens to adjust to their new roles, thoughIn the meantime, concentrate on communicating with your parents as best you canSometimes this can feel impossible like they just dont see your point of view and never willBut talking and expressing your opinions can help you gain more respect from your parents, and you may be able to reach a compromise that makes everyone happyKeep in mind, too, that your parents were teens once and that in most cases, they can relate to what youre going through68Why do parents always want to control their children?AThey are afraid to lose their childrenBThey want to protect their childrenCThey dont believe the ability of their childrenDThey cant accept their children are growing69The author suggested that teenagers _Afight with their parents bravely for their rightsBobey their parents without any doubtCcommunicate with their parents activelyDpersuade their parents in as many ways as possible70It can be inferred from the passage that _Amost parents will give in while fighting with their childrenBthe conflict between parents and teenagers can be solvedCthe only way for teens to get freedom is to leave homeDonly few parents do well in facing the growth of their children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。What is your favourite colour? Do you like yellow, orange, red? _71_. Do you prefer greys and blues? Then you are probably quiet, shy, and you would rather follow than lead. You tend to be pessimist. At least, this is what psychologists tell us, and they should know, because they have been seriously studying the meaning of colour preference, as well as the effect that colours have on human beings. _72_ . If you happen to love brown, you did so, as soon as you opened your eyes, or at least as soon as you could see clearly._73_. A yellow room makes most people feel more cheerful and more relaxed than a dark green one; and a red dress brings warmth and cheer to the saddest winter day. _74_ . A black bridge over the Thames River, near London, used to be the scene of more suicides than any other bridge in the area-until it was repainted green. The number of suicide attempts immediately fell sharply. Perhaps it would have fallen even more if the bridge had been done in pink or baby blue._75_. It is an established fact that factory workers work better, harder, and have fewer accidents when their machines are painted orange rather than black or grey.A. The rooms are painted in different colours as you like.B. They tell us, among other facts, that we do not choose our favourite colour as grow up - we are born with our preference.C. On the other hand, black is depressing.D. Colours do influence our moods-there is no doubt about it E. Life is like a picture or a poem, full of different colours.F. Light and bright colours make people not only happier but more active.G. If you do, you must be an optimist, a leader, an active person who enjoys life, people and excitement.第二卷第四部分：写作（共两节，满分35分）第一节 短文改错（共10小题，每小题1分，满分10分） 假定英语课上老师要求同桌之间交换修改作文，请你修改你同桌写的以下作文。文中共有10处语言错误，每句中最多有两处。每处错误涉及一个单词的增加、删除或修改。 增加：在缺词处加一个漏字符号（），并在此符号下面写出该加的词。 删除：把多余的词用斜线（）划掉。 修改：在错的词下划一横线，并在该词下面写出修改后的词。 注意：1，每处错误及其修改均仅限一次。 2，只允许修改10处，多者（从第11处起）不计分.When I was ten years old, I went to Dali with two AmericanI became their guideFirst, we went to the Erhai LakeThey wanted to look around the lake by the boatAfter buy the tickets, we got into a boatWe went around seeing the beautiful sightAfter that, we went shoppingThe sellers couldnt spoke EnglishThough it was very harder, I tried my best listen to their words carefully and translate the sentencesThey bought some little things with their helpNext, we went to a small zoo but took some picturesWhen we felt hunger, we went out and had lunchAfter lunch, we visited some old house and learned more about Chinese history 第二节 书面表达（满分25分）假设你叫李华，高中开学已经一月了，请根据下表写一封信告知你的朋友刘畅有关你新学校的一些情况。词数120左右。 1.学校概况 : 3，000名学生，40个班级，200多名教职工 2.班级情况 : 高二（5）班：90名学生 50名男生和40名女生3.班主任 :一位女老师，教英语，心地善良、工作严谨 4.学习科目 :语文、数学、英语为必修课，另外还有选修课 参考词汇：员工 staff; 必修课 compulsory course ; 选修课optional course_高二英语答案21-25 DBBDB 26-30 DAABA 31-35 BCBBB 36-40 CDCCB41-45 ABCBD 46-50DCBAC 51-55DCADC 56-60 ADBAC 61-65 DDAAC 66-70 ABBCB 71-75 GBDCF76Americans改为Americans77by the boat 改为 by boat78 buy 改为buying79 spoke改为speak 80 harder改为hard81 listen改为to listen82 their改为my 83 but改为and84 hunger 改为hungry85 house 改为housesDear Liu Chang, I have been here for a month till now.
