Some might not want to admit it, but there is a hidden Cinderella in everyones heartwe all wish we could achieve recognition or success after a period of obscurity（默默无闻）. Mary Santiago has that secret dream, too. Her story is featured in Another Cinderella Story, a film set in a US high school. Mary is shy but loves to dance. pared with other girls, she is invisible. However, her world changes pletely when a famous teenager pop singer, Joey Parker, appears. Joey is everything the rest of the boys in her class are notkind, handsome and desirable. Mary and Joeys paths cross at aball. They meet and fall in love with each other. But when Mary has to rush back home, she leaves behind her MP3 player, which bees theonlyclue Joey has to find the girl ofhisdreams. Of course, there is a wicked stepmother, who turns out to be Dominique Blatt and she takes in Mary after her dancer mother dies. Dominique treats Mary like a maid and does everything she can to make sure Mary doesnt get into the top dance school. Her two daughters are equally determined to stop Joey falling for Mary, even if that means embarrassing her. The story, though it mostly follows Cinderella, does add a few modern day twists to the classic fairy tale. Refreshingly, the film, unlike many high school films, does not focus on looks, although the actors are all beautiful.

Yet re-readers are everywhere around us. For certain fans, re-reading The Lord of the Rings is a conventional practice annually. One friend told me that Jane Austens Emma can still surprise him, despite his having read it over 50 times. New sudden clear understandings can be gained from the process of re-reading. Journalist Rebacca Mead, a long-time Englishwoman in New York, first came across George Eliots Middlemarch at 17. Since then, she has read it again every five years. With each re-reading, it has opened up further; in each chapter of her life, it has resonated (引起共鸣) differently. Mead evidenced the large number of ways in which really good books not only stand the test of repeat reads, but also offer fresh gifts each time we crack their spines. These kinds of books grow with us.Scientists have also recognized the mental health benefits of re-reading. Research conducted with readers in the US found that on our first reading, we are concerned with the “what” and the “why”. Second time round, were able to better appreciate the emotions that the plot continues to express. As researcher Cristel Russell of the American University explained, returning to a book “brings new or renewed appreciation of both the great book and its readers.”Its true that we often find former selves on the pages of old books (if were fond of making notes on the pages). These texts can carry us back to a time and place, and remind us of the kind of person that we were then. Were changed not only by lived experience but also by read experience by the books that weve discovered since last reading the one in our hand.More so than the movie director or the musician, the writer calls upon our imaginations, using words to lead us to picture this declaration of love or that unfaithfulness in life. A book is a joint project between writers and readers, and we must pour so much of ourselves into reading that our own life story can bee connected with the story in the book.Perhaps whats really strange is that we dont re-read more often. After all, we watch our favourite films again and we wouldnt think of listening to an album only once. We treasure messy old paintings as objects, yet of all art forms, literature alone is a largely one-time delight. A book, of course, takes up more time, but as Mead confirms, the rewards make it adequately worthwhile.39. The two books are mentioned in Paragraph 1 mainly to _. A. attract the attention of readers B. introduce the topic of the passage C. provide some background information D. show the similarity between re-readers40. The underlined expression “crack their spines” in Paragraph 2 refers to _. A. recite them B.re-read them C. recall themD. retell them41. It can be learned from the passage that _. A. reading benefits people both mentally and physically B. readers mainly focus on feelings on their first reading C. we know ourselves better through re-reading experience D. writers inspire the same imaginations as film directors do42. The purpose of the passage is to _. A. call on different understandings of old books B. focus on the mental health benefits of reading C. bring awareness to the significance of re-reading D. introduce the effective ways of re-reading old booksDEvery day we are exposed to images, videos, music and news. In this age of visual and aural hyper-stimulation, the medium of radio is making a great eback.“Were at the beginning of a golden age of audio,” said US-based podcaster Alex Blumberg in an article in The Sydney Morning Herald. In the last month alone, 15 percent of US adults listened to a radio podcast (播客). These statistics, released by Edison Research, show the successful evolution of traditional radio broadcasts to the present days digital podcast format. The term “podcast” was invented in xx, but the trend only started gaining mainstream popularity in recent years. With the sharp increase in consumer demand for smartphones and tablets, podcast sales have jumped.The appeal of the podcast partly lies in its multiplatform delivery and on-demand capabilities (功能). You can listen during those extra minutes of the day when youre walking to the shops, waiting in a queue or riding the subway. Similar to television shows, podcasts are generally free to download and most offer new content every week.Donna Jackson, 22, Sydney University media graduate, listens to podcasts two or three times a week, via iTune. “I listen while Im wandering around the house doing something else. It makes pleting a boring task much more enjoyable And its an easy way of keeping in touch with whats going on in the rest of the world,” she said, “I mainly listen to BBC podcasts, but recently Ive also been listening to This American Life and Serial. They have a special skill to really draw you in.”Unlike television and music, the audio format has the potential to create a deep impression on readers. Blumberg says this owes to the podcasts ability “to create close relationship and emotional connection.” Sydney University undergraduate Hazel Proust, majoring in social work and arts, agrees. “When youre listening, it feels as if the voice of the podcasts storyteller is talking directly to you. Its forting.” said Proust.It seems the age-old tradition of verbal storytelling is very much alive and well.43. From the first two paragraphs, we can learn that _. A. traditional broadcast has e back B. Americans love listening to the radio C. podcasts have bee very popular today D. smartphones sell well because of podcasts44. The writer mentions Donna Jackson mainly to _. A. tell how young people relax themselves B. explain why young people like podcasts C. introduce what programs podcasts are presenting D. show how popular podcasts are presenting45. Paragraph 5 is mainly about _. A. the influence of radiosB. the advantage of podcasts C. readers impression on radiosD. peoples reaction to the medium46. What is probably the best title of the passage? A. Return of RadioB. Opinions of Podcast C. Features of RadioD. Technology of Podcast EThe discovery of an ancient giant panda skull has confirmed its bamboo diet dates back more than 2 million years and may have played a key part in its survival.A Chinese-US research team reports its results today following studies on a fossil skull found in south Chinas Cuangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region in xx.The six fossils unearthed in Jinyin Cave are dated between 2.4 and 2 million years ago, according to the report in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, an influential US journal.Jin Changzhu, of the chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS) and lead author of the paper, said the smaller fossil skull indicates the giant pandas were about a third smaller than todays pandas.Researchers knew the panda reached its maximum size about 500,000 years ago, when it peaked ,and then gradually became smaller.Jin, a paleontologist (古生物学者) at the Institute of Vertebrate paleontology and Paleoanthropology (古人类学) attached to the CAS, said the size variation was a basic rule of evolution.“A species tends to grow bigger when it reaches the peak of its population , but bees smaller when numbers decline,” he said. The dental remains of the skull, which is the oldest giant panda skull ever found, are similar to todays pandas, indicating the type of teeth that could munch (津津有味地嚼)mountains of bamboo. A panda can eat up to 40kg of bamboo per day.Paleoanthropologist Russell Ciochon, the US co-author at the University of lowa, said the pandas focus on bamboo could have helped it survive all these years.“Once an animal begins to rely on a mon and stable food source, such as bamboo, it tends to evolve a larger body size,” he said. “As individuals of the evolving species grow bigger, they have a better chance not to be eaten by predators (肉食动物) due to their larger body size.”47. According to the research of the CAS , there were most pandas in the world . A. 2 million years ago B. between 2.4 and 2 million years ago C. 500,000 years ago D. Nowadays48. The underlined word “variation” in para 6 means . A. fall B. change C. increase D. decrease49. From the passage, we can learn . A. pandas began to eat bamboo 2 million years ago B. a species tends to grow smaller when numbers decline C. the giant pandas were about a third the size of todays pandas D. pandas bamboo has played an important role in its development50.The passage mainly tells us that . A. pandas are endangered B. pandas had a long history C. pandas had bamboo to beat predators D. todays Pandas are similar to the oldest ones 第二节补全对话（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的七个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。Hi, David.

It involves the use of nets, or “heads” as they are called, which consist of a wooden or metal stick with a net on the end. Hockey is a game based on this sport. The name “lacrosse” was named by the French settlers ，with “Crosse” meaning curved stick. Lacrosse played a more serious role in Indian culture than anywhere else. Lacrosse was not a very well-known sport until the late nineteenth century. It was mostly a boys game until a few years ago, and now it is played by both boys and girls. There were about three different forms of lacrosse based on the different tribes or places of how they played it. One of the ways still played today is called double stick; you play by using a two-and-a-half-foot stick in each hand and tossing a deer skin ball in between the two sticks. Like many other ball games ，there are two teams in Lacrosse ，each with ten players. There is one goalie, three defense
