After the wedding and reception, rather serendipitously (意外收获地) four of us gathered in a hotel room and began to explore the deeper meaning of life and death. What does it mean to live truly? If we are all getting closer to death, is all the material accumulation worth it? It is not exactly the type of conversations one has at a wedding. While the answers varied from person to person, I was left with more questions than answers and a feeling of gratefulness to be surrounded by friends who were asking the right questions. As the clock kept ticking past 3 am, one of the roommates suggested we watch a short film titled Last Days of Zach Sobiech. The premise of the film is about a teenagers journey through the last days of his terminal illness. The film brought up a lot of mixed emotions but one quote that stood out for me was Zachs simple explanation of happiness, “what makes one happy is seeing someone else smile because you put it there.” By 4 am, there was this energy in the room that had to be shared! With a few packages of post-it notes and sharpies, we hit the halls of the hotel. We decided to leave short inspirational words on guests doors, so when they open their doors few hours later a smile would turn up. We ended up tagging all the doors until we ran out of post-it notes. The door of the newlyweds properly said, “Where there is love, there is life.”21.About “exploring the deeper meaning of life and death” at a wedding the author thinks it is .A.interesting B.instructive C.improper D.encouraging 22.What in the film left the author the deepest impression?

B.They helped the people who were in the hotel where they stayed. C.They helped the workers in the hotel where they stayed. D.They knocked at all the doors in the hotel where they stayed. 24.What can we learn from the author and his friends action?A.Its never too late to learn.B.Two heads are better than one.C.A friend in need is a friend indeed.D.Helping others will benefit yourself as well.【答案与解析】 本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者在和朋友们去纽约参加朋友的婚礼时,在宾馆里偶尔谈起生与死真正的意义,他们得到感悟,就决定给宾馆的每间房门上都贴上微笑卡,给别人带来快乐。21.C由第1段最后一句可知,作者认为在婚礼上探索生与死的真正意义不是很合适。22.B由第2段第4句可知,这部电影给作者留下最深刻的印象是Zach对幸福的简单解释。 23.A由第2、3段可知,受电影的启发,他们给宾馆每间房门上都贴上了微笑卡,并写上不同的文字和祝福语。24.D文章主要讲述了作者在和朋友们去纽约参加朋友的婚礼时,他们得到感悟,就决定给宾馆的每间房门上都贴上微笑卡,给别人带来快乐。这一举动充分体现了给别人带来快乐自己也快乐。B Every day for the last two weeks, Huang Huang, the dog, has repeated the same tragic (悲剧的) routine. Sniffing (嗅) from seat to seat, the lonely dog searches a bus though he had much trouble in picking up his missing masters scent (气味). But his master never es. Though he has almost certainly been abandoned by his master, the loyal dog has returned to the same bus stop every day for the past 15 days. Every day he has waited patiently in line for the bus to arrive, got on with other passengers and then searched the seats. Drivers say he spends ten hours every day searching any bus that passes. But finally, as night falls, he gives up and disappears into the darkness, only to return the next day to start again. Huang Huang has appeared at the stop consistently for the past 15 days. “Every day I go to the stop five times, and every day that dog will jump on my bus to give it an inspection”, a conductor said. “At first I thought it was looking for food, but I later realized that it was looking for its owner.” And hes now bee something of a local celebrity (名人) in the city after one person filmed his searches on a mobile phone and posted it online. His newfound fame will not be a fort to the lonely dog as his owner is yet to be found. A book seller named Fung said he thought he had seen Huang Huang standing with his owner in the car park around a month ago. “Were worried that its owner might be looking for it and might e back to it,” Fung said. Such a loyal dog. Who would be willing to part with it?

They studied a mon tropical stingless (无螫刺的) bee Tetragonisca angustula in Sao Paulo State in Brazil where its known locally as Jata. It nests in trees and wall holes. Each nest has one queen and up to 10,000 workers. Insect societies such as the Jatas are cooperative and selfless, the workers caring for the nest and the queens children. This lifestyle also includes the division of labor among workers. The research states that: Jata guard bees are 30 per cent heavier than their forager (觅食蜂) nestmates; they differ slightly in shape from foragers, with larger legs and smaller heads; approximately one per cent of worker bees raised in a colony are soldier-sized; Jata soldiers stand on the nest entrance tube and also fly around near the entrance where they provide “early warning” detection of enemy attack. Like other social insects, Jata uses guard workers to protect the nest. A previous study by the team had shown that these guards were specialists who performed guarding duties for far longer (up to three weeks) than other types of worker bees, such as the honey bees, who spend just one day guarding the nest, progressing to other tasks as they get older. The new research shows that Jata guards, unlike their honey bee counterparts, are physically specialized to perform a particular task. Having larger-bodied guards is important for nest-defense, as theyre better at fighting one of Jatas main enemiesthe robber bee Lestrimelitta limao, which can kill off many colonies (蜂群) when attacking nests for food. Even though the Jata guard is short of a sting and is finally killed, it can knock its head onto the wing of a robber bee, preventing it from flying. Large-bodied soldier workers have long been known in ants (蚂蚁) and white ants, but this is the first evidence of a soldier bee. 29.Whats Jatas character different from other bees? A.They have different jobs. B.They have no stings. C.They fly far away a day. D.They like attacking people. 30.Whats the duty of Jata guard bees? A.They protect the nest from being attacked. B.They look after the babies.C.They protect the queen. D.They look for food.31.What can we learn from the last paragraph? A.The Jata guard lacks wings.B.The Jata guard will fly away immediately. C.The Jata guard used its head to attack the enemy.D.The Jata wont attack the enemy unless used as soldiers.【答案与解析】 本文为说明文。我们很多人都知道蚂蚁作为一个大家庭有严格的工作分工,其实蜜蜂也是如此,它们也有自己的蜜蜂士兵。29.B从第2段和最后一段的第1句可知,这种蜂没有螫刺。故选B项。30.A从第4段第1句可知蜜蜂士兵的职责是保护蜂巢以免受到外来侵袭。 31.C从最后一段第1句可知,这种蜂会用头部撞击来犯者的翅膀,使它们丧失飞行的能力。故选C项。D When I was six, Dad brought home a dog one day, who was called “Brownie”. My brothers and I all loved Brownie and did different things with her. One of us would walk her, another would feed her, then there were baths, playing catch and many other games.

Diabetes was not a mon illness, especially in children, until recently. 37 These include feeling tired all the time, going for a pee (小便) more often than usual and most of all feeling very, very thirsty. If you, or any of your friends or members of your family, have any of these symptoms, a simple painless blood test by your doctor can rule out diabetes.38 Some children and many adults do very little exercise as well as eat foods that contain more calories than they could possibly use. The result is that their bodies cant cope and so give up trying to balance the amount of food and calories ing in with the amount of exercise and calories going out.39 If we eat too many calories, our bodies cant make enough insulin (胰岛素) to keep up and so less of our food is turned into the energy we desperately need. 40 In its early stages diabetes is often not diagnosed because its symptoms (症状) seem harmless, but early treatment can avoid the really serious side effects.A.Thats why those with diabetes feel so tired.B.Our body can produce proper amount of insulin. C.Insulin helps to turn some of the food we eat into energy. D.Thats because they eat too much food containing calories. E.And diabetes is being a major health problem in many parts of the world.F.Now, because of changing lifestyles, we should be aware of diabetes and its symptoms.G.Diabetes is often thought to be the result of a lack of exercise and eating the wrong kind of diet.答案:3640EFGCA第三部分:英语知识运用(共两节,满分45分)第一节:完形填空(共20小题;每小题1.5分,满分30分)阅读下面短文,从短文后各题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 Ellie Jeffery is 28 and has secondary breast cancer, which has spread to her lungs and bones.
